Jerry Wang: The growth recoveries that began in H2 last year gained further momentum in Q2, with GMV and revenue posting accelerated year-over-year growth. GMV increased 18.9% year-over-year to RMB 2.9 billion, while net revenues grew 12.8% to RMB 2.4 billion, representing the fastest growth for both metrics in recent quarters. This strong performance was primarily driven by robust growth among SME customers and key accounts across our core industries, along with a continued recovery in business with central SOEs. As GMV growth accelerated, gross profit grew even faster, increasing 20.3% year-over-year from RMB 357 million to RMB 430 million. As a result, gross profit as a percentage of GMV edged up to 14.9%, compared with 14.8% in the same period last year and 14.4% in Q1 2026.

Speaker #3: GMV increased 18.9% year over year to RMB 2.9 billion , while net revenues grew 12.8% to R&B , 2.4 billion , representing the fastest growth for both metrics in recent quarters This strong performance was primarily driven by robust growth among SM customers and key accounts across our core industries , along with a continued recovery in business with central SOEs .

Jerry Wang: This improvement reflected the continued optimization of our customer and product mix, as well as the increasing GMV contribution from private label offerings. Driven by improved operating leverage and operating efficiency, total operating expenses decreased 0.8% year-over-year to RMB 425 million in the quarter. Operating expenses as a percentage of net revenues improved notably, declining from 19.8% in the same period last year to 17.4%. Breaking it down, fulfillment expenses were RMB 90 million, representing 3.7% of net revenues, down from 4.2% in the same period last year. Sales and marketing expenses were RMB 151 million, representing 6.2% of net revenues, down from 6.9% in the same period last year. R&D expenses were RMB 35 million, representing 1.4% of net revenues, down from 1.9% in the same period last year.

Jerry Wang: General and administrative expenses were RMB 150 million, representing 6.1% of net revenues, down from 6.8% in the same period last year. Looking ahead, we expect GMV and revenue growth to accelerate further in H2 of the year. Combined with our continued focus on operating efficiency, this should drive further improvements in our operating expense ratios and strengthen our operating leverage. On the international front, as we noted previously, overseas expansion remains an important long-term strategic priority for the company. In H1 of this year, international GMV exceeded RMB 95 million, marking a significant step-up in scale. As we continue to grow this business, we remain disciplined in managing expenses and focused on return on investment. Going forward, we expect our international business to turn profitable in H2 of this year.

Eric Long Chen: 其次，关于客户的组合。区域中小客户。我们这里讲的中小客户主要是指体量在10亿规模左右的客户，相比较央国企、行业那些大客户，我们在这里定义是中小客户。中小客户是第二季度的一大亮点，GMV增速达到了30%。我们预期该部分客户将会持续维持超过公司大盘的GMV增速。如我们先前所说，该部分客户的持续渗透更能体现震坤行产品和服务能力的提升。一方面是客户对服务的要求越来越高，传统贸易公司被淘汰；另一方面，是从销售驱动转向供应驱动。也就是我们原来是客户要什么，我们提供什么，我们去找货、组货。现在我们更有能力，因为产品能力的提升，客户根据我们已经有的产品来选择购买，这样效率就会得到极大的提升。与此同时，中小客户的毛利率要比大客户来得高，所以中小客户的增长比大盘更快，有利于公司整体毛利率的趋势。此外，中小客户往往在城市边缘，履约交付也更为方便。目前我们中小客户GMV占比约30%，大客户，这个大客户包括行业的这些头部客户和这些央国企客户，GMV占比约60%。未来我们预计中小客户的占比会进一步提升。请翻译。

Speaker #6: Secondly , in terms of our customer mix , I would like to talk about how we perform on the SME customers . And just to clarify , the definition of what we mean by SME customer , we're talking about a customer with a revenue of over 1 billion RMB .

[Company Representative] (ZKH Group): Secondly, in terms of our customer mix, I would like to talk about how we perform on the SME customers front. Just to clarify the definition of what we mean by an SME customer. We are talking about a customer with a revenue of over CNY 1 billion. So it is not technically a small customer or a small company, right? But relatively speaking, it is small compared to some of the large guys or central and local SOEs. A big highlight of Q2 is that the GMV for these SMEs have reached 30%. So the GMV growth for this segment is outperforming the company's overall GMV growth.

Speaker #6: And so a big highlight of Q2 is that GMV for these SMEs have reached over reached 30% . And so the GMV growth for this segment is outperforming the company's overall growth .

Speaker #6: And like discussed earlier, we believe this type of customer can reflect the improvement of the product and service capabilities more than any other types of customers.

[Company Representative] (ZKH Group): As discussed earlier, we believe this type of customers can reflect the improvement of the product and service capabilities of the ZKH more than any other types of customers, because these customers are getting increasingly demanding in terms of their requirements for services. As a result, traditional and conventional trading companies are being eliminated. Secondly, our business is evolving from sales-driven to supply-driven or supply chain-driven. I will explain what I mean by this. Before we were basically selling whatever the customers wanted and demanded, right? But now, with the capabilities of our product improving, we are more in a position to sell what we recommend and what is available on our part. That is definitely a huge increase in terms of efficiency and productivity. At the same time, the growth margins on the part of the SMEs are higher than large customers.

Speaker #6: So, before, we were basically selling whatever the customers wanted and demanded, right? But now, with the capabilities of our product improving, we are more in a position to sell what we recommend and what's available on our part.

Speaker #6: And that's definitely a huge increase in terms of efficiency and productivity. At the same time, the gross margins on the part of the SMEs are higher than large customers.

Speaker #6: So the growth of SMEs outstripping the overall company is definitely conducive to the improvement of our overall gross margins and the these SMEs are usually located in the outskirts of cities , which means delivery and the fulfillment for them is easier and GMV wise .

[Company Representative] (ZKH Group): The growth of SMEs outstripping the overall company is definitely conducive to the improvement of our overall growth margins. These SMEs are usually located in the outskirts of cities, which means delivery and the fulfillment for them is easier. GMV wise, these SME customers are accounting for about 30% of total GMV, while large customers, and by large customers I mean, key accounts or leading companies of various sectors and those SOEs. These larger customers account for 60% GMV wise, and we expect SME GMV share to continue to rise in the future. Please continue.

Eric Long Chen: 最后是关于自有品牌。第二季度我们自有品牌同比增速超过了25%，增速较整体更快一些，GMV占比达到了10%，继续向着长期目标30%迈进。自有品牌的毛利率比非自有品牌来得高一些，大约高10%。所以自有品牌占比趋势也会正面影响整体毛利率的趋势。请翻译。

Speaker #2: GMV B by the Z

Speaker #6: Thirdly , my last point is on private labels . So for Q2 , private labels achieved a growth of over 25% , outstripping overall growth and its GMV share has reached 10% .

[Company Representative] (ZKH Group): Thirdly, my last point is on private labels. For Q2, private labels achieved a growth of over 25%, outstripping overall growth. Its GMV share has reached 10%, marching towards our long-term goal of 30% for it. The growth margins for private labels are higher than non-private labels. It is usually 10% higher. This trend of private labels as a share of overall GMV increasing will also be conducive to the overall growth margins improving. Continue.

Speaker #6: Thank you

Eric Long Chen: 关于下半年和全年的GMV增速的预期，从目前的7到8月份至今的订单趋势来看，我们预计三季度的GMV增速会比第二季度的18.9%有进一步加快的趋势。而四季度，尤其是12月，一般是全年订单高峰。所以我们有信心目前的增速能得以维持，并达成全年GMV 15%到20%的增长目标。我所有的问题回答完毕。谢谢。

[Company Representative] (ZKH Group): Looking out to the H2 of this year and the entire year's GMV, if you look at the order trend, July, August this year, we expect GMV growth for Q3 is going to be higher than Q2's 18.9%. It is going to continue to accelerate. Q4, especially the month of December, is a peak month or peak quarter for orders throughout the year. We are confident that we are able to sustain this growth and be able to achieve our overall growth of 15% to 20% of growth for GMV this year. That was my answer to your question. Thank you.

Juo Ming Tao: 感谢管一森给我的提问机会。我的问题主要是关于AI相关的几个小问题。那在AI浪潮的这样那个大背景下，不同类型的客户的采购行为和习惯是否有发生一些边际变化？那我们将如何针对相关的机会去抓住这一个机遇呢？另外，此前推出的AI相关应用，比如AI物料管家，最近是否有一些更多的进展可以分享？那最后的话，关于之前咱们有提到过的AI子公司的一个设立的进展情况，目前大概是一个什么样的一个规划，那后续的节奏大概会是怎么样的一个情况？谢谢。

Speaker #6: Question: Against the backdrop of the ongoing AI wave, have you observed any incremental changes in purchasing behavior and habits of different customer groups?

[Company Representative] (ZKH Group): Question: Against the backdrop of ongoing AI wave, have you observed any incremental changes in purchasing behavior and habits of different customer groups? How will ZKH capture the opportunities? Have AI applications launched previously, such as the AI Materials Manager, made further progress recently? In addition, what is the latest progress on establishing the AI subsidiary as alluded to earlier?

Speaker #6: How will the company capture the opportunities? Have AI applications launched previously, such as the AI Materials Manager, made further progress recently?

Speaker #6: In addition, what is the latest progress on establishing the AI subsidiary, as alluded to earlier?

Speaker #7: Oh, are AI, you AI, AI, AI, AI, AI. Revolution.

David Liu: 好，我来回答这个问题，我是震坤行的CTO。我们确实观察到，随着AI技术的普及，客户的采购行为出现了一些边际的变化，主要有三个潜在的趋势。第一个趋势就是需求表达的习惯和采购入口的变化。过去工业品采购更多依赖于传统的搜索、目录筛选或者人工询价。但现在呢，越来越多的从业者第一反应是用自然语言直接描述需求，甚至于把设备型号、使用场景、技术参数直接交给AI，希望由AI来帮助他完成需求澄清、选型和商品推荐。那第二个趋势，就是企业对于高质量数据的需求在明显的提升。那随着AI真正进入采购决策流程，其中一个必要的前提就是商品参数、规格、替代关系、配套使用关系等等，这些关键的数据要足够的准确。所以我们认为AI时代的高质量、结构化、专业化的数据将变得至关重要。第三个趋势，企业，尤其是中小企业，对于更加自主化、智能化采购方式的接受度在提高。未来相当一部分标准化的工作有机会由AI来完成，在降低服务成本的同时提升客户体验。请帮我翻译。

Speaker #6: So this is the CTO of the company , and I'll take this question . So indeed , we have observed some incremental changes in customer purchasing behavior as AI applications gradually mature So we observed three trends that are quite notable .

[Company Representative] (ZKH Group): This is the CTO of the company, and I will take this question. Indeed, we have observed some incremental changes in customer purchasing behavior as AI applications gradually mature. We observed three trends that are quite notable. First, customers are changing how they express their needs and access procurement services. In the past, MRO products procurement relied primarily on keyword searches, catalog filters, or manual requests for quotations. Increasingly, customers are becoming accustomed to describing their requirements directly in a natural language. Some provide AI systems with equipment models, use cases, and technical specifications, and expect the systems to clarify their needs, select suitable product models, or recommend the right products to them. The second trend we observe is that the demand for high-quality data is increasing.

Speaker #6: Select suitable product models or recommend the right products to them. The second trend we observe is that the demand for high-quality data is increasing.

Speaker #6: For AI to participate meaningfully in procurement decisions , data such as product parameters , specifications , product alternatives , brands and materials . These things must be sufficiently accurate .

[Company Representative] (ZKH Group): For AI to participate meaningfully in procurement decisions, data such as product parameters, specifications, product alternatives, brands, and materials, these things must be sufficiently accurate. We therefore believe that high-quality, structured, and specialized data will become even more important in the era of AI. Third, SMEs are becoming more receptive to self-service and smart procurement. In the past, many procurement services required repeated communication between our sales representatives and the customer's procurement people. In the future, AI may be able to handle a significant portion of this standardized work, reducing service costs while improving the customer service, or rather customer service experience. 请继续。

David Liu: 我们此前推出的AI物料管家也在持续地迭代。目前，AI物料管家已经累计服务了8600家客户，而且客户数相比去年同期增长了93%，而且已经形成了商业化收入。同时，我们也在持续从数据层、模型层和智能体层构建工业用品全栈AI能力的行业壁垒。我们将在今年的10月份联合全球头部的芯片厂家Intel，推出玲珑慧眼工业视觉的端侧模型和解决方案，赋能供应链的仓储、物流、签收等场景。后续，我们也会把AI物料管家以及行家玲珑工业模型与更多的国内外的头部芯片厂家开展深入的研发合作。请翻译。

Speaker #7: AI, AI. AI—the machine AI is the...

Speaker #6: So as . As regards to AI , materials . Manager , which we launched previously , it continues to evolve . It has now served more than 8600 customers , representing a year over year growth of 93% .

[Company Representative] (ZKH Group): So as regards to AI Materials Manager, which we launched previously, it continues to evolve. It has now served more than 8,600 customers, representing a year-over-year growth of 93% in terms of customer count and has begun generating revenue. We are also continuing to build a competitive mode around our full stack AI capabilities for MRO products. In September or rather October this year, we plan to work with Intel, a leading global chip maker, to launch our 玲珑慧眼, which is an industry leading edge model and solution for industrial vision. We also intend to establish deeper collaboration with leading domestic chip makers, integrating AI Material Manager and the Linglong model with their technologies at both the model and agent layers. 请继续.

Speaker #2: Hey

Leo Chiang: I will translate myself. Good evening, management. Thanks for taking my question and congrats on the strong result. I have two questions. The first one is regarding our international business. Could management update us on the company's internationalization progress, including GMV contribution, customer expansion and your outlook for future international markets? The second question is could management provide an update on the shareholder return plan, such as share repurchase program or other related initiatives? Thank you.

Speaker #8: Thank you

Speaker #2: My sir, would we? Yeah. She Chang. For the hour, the Chang, and Xiao Li. Zhang Zheng.

Speaker #6: So in terms of our international business . Growth wise , revenue has been growing very strongly a tenfold increase compared to the same period last year .

Speaker #6: So for the first half of this year, GMV was RMB 95 million. And we expect the second half to continue this strong growth.

Speaker #6: Secondly, international business has always been part of our long-term strategy, and we will continue to make investments into it. And there are two parts to our international business. Part one is we will continue to support Chinese businesses as they expand their business in overseas markets.

Speaker #6: And based on existing customer relations , we will leverage more overseas orders and and at the same time , strengthen our last mile fulfillment capabilities in different locales , geographies , and regions .

Speaker #6: The second part to our international business is localized business , which is happening primarily in the US . And Texas , specifically as we speak .

Speaker #6: At the same time, as was talked about in the prepared remarks, our online sales by way of Amazon are also increasing greatly.

Speaker #6: So, overall, we are valuing efficiency more when it comes to making investments in our overseas business, and we will avoid front-loading expenses ahead of business needs.

Speaker #6: And we will try to turn a profit for this sometime in the second half of this year for our international business. Thank you.
