We started the year off strongly with a robust Q1 performance. Total revenue for the quarter grew 45.6% year over year to CNY 432.8 million, driven by the sustained growth momentum in our branded aesthetic center business. We are also encouraged that our upstream supply chain is not only supporting our chain operations, but also fueling growth in our upstream supply chain business. Let's dive into each business segment. Revenue from aesthetic treatment service increased to CNY 282.4 million, up 185.8% year over year, and exceeding the high end of our guidance for the 4th consecutive quarter.

We are pleased to see our core growth driver continue to gain traction in both revenue and profitability as we execute our dual engine strategy focused on scale and efficiency. As of 31 March, we operated 54 So-Young clinics across 16 major cities, reflecting a net addition of five centers during the quarter. Now breaking down revenue by center fees. Our 20 mature fee centers generated RMB 150 million in revenue, or roughly RMB 7.5 million per center. Our 23 growth phase centers contribute RMB 109.5 million, or roughly RMB 4.8 million per center. The 11 ramp-up phase centers contribute to RMB 22.9 million, or roughly RMB 2.1 million per center.

Sha Zhang: It's worth mentioning that average revenue per center for this in the ramp-up phase show significant growth both year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter. This clearly validates how our increasingly standardized operations are effectively accelerating their ramp-up trajectory. In the meantime, average revenue per mature phase center remains solid and well above the level seen in ramp-up and growth phase centers. In terms of profitability, 41 centers were profitable, and 48 centers generated positive operating cash flow during the quarter, reflecting a net addition of 16 and nine respectively from last quarter. With a robust pipeline steadily transitioning into maturity. Alongside our ongoing scale expansion and operation efficiency enhancement, we are confident in our ability to continue driving revenue growth and improving our profitability profile of this segment.

Jinpeng He: [Foreign language] So let me briefly translate myself. Thank you for taking my question. I'm Jinpeng He from CITIC Securities. I have a question about the medical aesthetics industry. We are seeing the industry has experienced a slowdown in overall growth and also intensified the competition in the past 2 years. Under this background, what are the development status and the consumer characteristics in China's medical aesthetics industry? Looking ahead, what opportunities do you see? Thank you.

Speaker #3: Hey, how请问的机会。我是中信证券闽江商业组的分析师何景岑。我这边想请教一下关于医美行业的一个问题。医美行业我们看到在过去两年其实也是展现出了一个整体增长放缓、季增加剧这样的一个趋势。那么在这样的背景之下，想请教一下中国医美行业目前整体的一个发展现状如何，包括消费者特点如何。那么展望未来还有怎样的一个市场的机遇。So let me briefly translate myself. Thank you for taking my question. I'm Jingcen He from CITIC Securities. So I have a question about the medical aesthetic industry.

Speaker #3: So, we are seeing the industry has experienced a slowdown in overall growth and also intensified competition in the past two years. So, under this background, what are the development status and consumer characteristics in China's medical aesthetic industry?

Speaker #3: And looking ahead, what opportunities do you see? Thank you.

Xing Jin: [Foreign language]

Speaker #4: Hey, Jinping, 你好。感谢你的提问。首先我们还是非常持续看好晴医美在中国的发展。我觉得尽管整个大盘的增速放缓，但是内部结构性的机会还是持续存在的。截至去年，中国医美市场的规模已经突破了3,700亿人民币。其中晴医美市场的占比接近了八成，超越手术类项目成为市场的主流，是全球范围内增长领先、增长潜力领先的细分市场。

Xing Jin: 景彭你好，感谢你的提问。首先我们还是非常持续看好轻医美在中国的发展。我觉得尽管整个大盘的增速放缓，但是内部结构性的机会还是持续存在的。截至去年，中国医美市场的规模已经突破了3,700亿人民币，其中轻医美市场的占比接近了八成，超越手术类项目成为市场的主流，是全球范围内增长潜力领先的细分市场。

Mona Qiao: We remain bullish on light medical aesthetics China. While the broader market is cooling, structural opportunities remain. As of 2025, China's medical aesthetics market had exceeded RMB 317 billion. Light medical aesthetics captured nearly 80% of the market, overtaking surgical treatment and the mainstream choice. This segment also has leading growth potential globally.

Speaker #5: Since we remain bullish on light medical aesthetics, cooling structural opportunities remain. As of 2025, China's medical aesthetics market had exceeded RMB 317 billion. Light medical aesthetics captured nearly 80% of the market.

Speaker #5: Overtaking surgical treatment and the mainstream choice. This segment also has leading growth potential globally.

Xing Jin: [Foreign language]

Speaker #4: 这种内部结构性变化来源于消费者消费习惯的改变。我们总结有以下几个方面。第一，医美从改变样貌转向抗衰的代名词。人们更追求变年轻，而非变成另外一个人。第二，消费者越来越理性，不愿意交智商税。愿意为技术付溢价，但是拒绝为营销买单。第三，医美消费持续普及。中国的二三线城市在客单价、消费认知上已与一线城市无显著差异。这种新的需求我们认为传统医美机构针对富裕阶层、服务非标化、充值办卡、单程大电的商业模式很难满足。市场需要信仰青春诊所，这样的机构给用户提供连锁便捷、标准化、可负担的优质医美服务。

Mona Qiao: This internal structural change is driven by evolving consumer habits in the following areas. First, medical aesthetic conception is evolving from changing appearance to anti-aging. People now want to look younger, not become someone else. Second, consumers are becoming more rational. They will pay a premium for better technologies, but not marketing hype. Third, medical aesthetic is gaining rising popularity. Tier 2 and tier 3 cities now match tier 1 cities in both output and consumer awareness. We believe this new demand is difficult for traditional clinics to meet, as they focus on the affluent with bespoke services, prepaid card requirements, and large single-city centers. What's needed is what we offer: convenient, standardized, affordable, and premium services through a clinic chain.

Speaker #5: So this internal structural change is driven by evolving consumer habits in the following areas. First, medical aesthetic conception is evolving from changing appearance to anti-aging.

Speaker #4: 总体来看，中国医美行业正步入一个供给更丰富、价格更透明、竞争更激烈，但也更趋成熟的新阶段。上游供给从2025年以来持续加速，特别是在童颜、胶原蛋白等热门赛道。截至目前，童颜针、胶原蛋白获批了三类证都已超过十张，预计未来仍会持续有新的三类证获批。丰富程度会类似玻尿酸产品，对新阳而言，则意味着更大的选品空间、更优的采购成本、更好的用户体验。

Speaker #5: Overall, the industry has entered a new phase: more device supply, greater price transparency, and fairer yet more mature competition. Upstream supply has been accelerating since 2025, particularly in hot categories like PLLA and collagen.

Mona Qiao: Overall, the industry has entered a new phase: more device supply, greater price transparency, and fiercer yet more mature competition. Upstream supply has been accelerating since 2025, particularly in hot categories like PLLA and collagen. We've already seen more than 10 Class III certificate approvals in each category, and we expect more to come, eventually reaching the same level of diversity as HA products. For So-Young, that means more product choices, better procurement costs, and enhanced user experience.

Speaker #4: 在这场变化中，医美机构周围连接上游厂商与消费者的核心枢纽。关键在于能否推出效果显著、价格合理且安全可靠的产品与服务。进入2026年，医美行业将延续淘汰赛格局。活下来的机构必须找到差异化定位。我们认为新养青春诊所提供的对标医美界的三亩会员店，差异化定位的医美服务，凭借一致性、可负担性、可及性的特点，以及我们沉淀多年的上游供应链布局与多元化获客优势，能够与传统高端医美、其他单体民营机构形成错位竞争。随着规模化、随着规模化扩张释放更大的运营优势。

Speaker #5: In this environment, medical aesthetic clinics—the key bridge connecting upstream manufacturers and consumers—will succeed only if they can deliver effective, affordable, safe, and reliable products and services.

Mona Qiao: In this environment, medical aesthetic clinics, the key bridge connecting upstream manufacturers and consumers, will succeed only if they can deliver effective, affordable, safe, and reliable products and services. In 2026, we expect competition to remain intense across the industry. Weaker players will continue to exit, and survivors will need differentiated positioning. In our case, So-Young Clinic is positioned like a Sam's Club of medical aesthetics, known for consistency, affordability, and accessibility. Combined with our established supply chain and diversified customer acquisition channels, this gives us a competitive edge over traditional high-end and single-store private centers. As we scale, our advantage will compound.

My question is, we can see that the purchase rate among core members is very high, indicating strong user stickiness. Can you help us understand whether there is still upside potential for high-value users' annual spending?

Through differentiated benefits and personalized services, we will enhance brand value. Combined with curated SKUs, this allows us to meet our users' diverse and evolving light medical aesthetic needs while increasing lifetime value. Second, we will continue expanding our mid-to-high-end offerings while promoting coordinated diagnosis and bundled complementary treatment solutions. This will meaningfully boost ARPU.

Mona Qiao: For blockbuster products, popular treatments like Thermage and BBL have been strong drivers of ARPU. New products launched with upstream partners are also gaining traction. Our skin booster series with Xihong Biopharma and collagen products with Jinbo Biopharmaceutical have shown strong market reception and sales momentum. These new products enrich our mid-to-high-end product portfolio while also driving repeat purchase behavior and ARPU. They are definitely something to look forward to.

As China's largest light medical aesthetic chain, So-Young continues to attract high quality doctors, with physician team keeping expanding. We now have about 230 full-time physicians. All hires undergo rigorous selecting, and we require every physician to complete theoretical and hands-on training and assessments before practicing. As mentioned in our remarks, our physician training center and R&D center at Beijing headquarters are now up and running.

Xing Jin: 在人才留存方面，我们建立了多层次的长期绑定机制，医生流动率处于行业正常水平。首先在业绩维度，我们通过按操作数量提供有竞争力的业绩提成，激励优秀医生。其次，我们为不同层级的医生设计了清晰的成长路径。例如针对PT2级别以上的医生，我们与艾尔建等上游头部厂商建立深度合作，为医生提供前沿专业知识等各类定制化培训，以及直播露出和口碑积累机会，帮助他们持续提升个人技术影响力。此外，我们还设有从门店医生到区域医生再到大师团医生的明确晋升通道。

Mona Qiao: In terms of talent retention, we have built a multi-layer long-term retention mechanism. Our physician turnover rate is currently in line with the industry average. First, on performance incentives, we offer competitive commission linked to treatment volume to reward high performers. Second, we design clear progression paths for our physicians at different levels. For instance, doctors at PT2 level or above can receive customized training through our deep collaborations with leading partnerships like Allergan. We also help them to professionally influence their live streaming visibility and other reputation-building opportunities. Additionally, we have a well-defined promotion ladder from in-clinic physician to regional physician and ultimately to master group physician.

Mona Qiao: In parallel, we are rolling out a physician-led policy where doctors are involved from the very first customer visit to provide professional in-person consultations. Under this model, the role of consultant shifts from leading consultation to supporting the doctor in diagnosis and treatment. This adjustment highlights the medical nature of our services, which will enhance customer trust and improve conversion. We have piloted this policy in selected clinics. In future, we plan to have 100% of new customers consulted by a physician, with physician-led consultation gradually expanding to returning customers.
