- Income from operations was RMB7.3 million (US$1.1 million) in the second quarter of 2026, compared with RMB19.3 million in the same period of 2025.
- Non-GAAP income from operations1 was RMB10.8 million (US$1.6 million) in the second quarter of 2026, compared with RMB31.9 million in the same period of 2025.
- Net loss was RMB34.0 million (US$5.0 million) in the second quarter of 2026, compared with net income of RMB53.5 million in the same period of 2025.

- The number of orders fulfilled was 63.1 million in the second quarter of 2026.
Mr. Adam Xue, Founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer of FlashEx, commented, “In the second quarter of 2026, amid a persistently challenging market environment, we continued to optimize capacity allocation while expanding both our usage scenarios and service offerings. This drove a sequential recovery in our core operating metrics, with service scale and delivery efficiency improving in parallel. The quarter also marked a step forward in how AI is reshaping our business. Externally, we are embedding our fulfillment capability directly into emerging AI ecosystems, extending our reach to the point where user demand originates. Internally, AI has evolved from a set of isolated applications into a systemic capability that underpins the way our organization operates. Together with our low-altitude logistics business moving from pilot routes to multi-route commercial operation, these efforts position FlashEx to deliver sustainable long-term value for all stakeholders.”
Mr. Luke Tang, Chief Financial Officer of FlashEx, said, “Our differentiated on-demand dedicated courier model continued to demonstrate resilience as we further refined operations in the second quarter. We closed the quarter with RMB853.4 million in cash and short-term investments and had repurchased approximately 3.9 million ADSs for approximately US$11.8 million in aggregate as of August 19, 2026. As AI becomes increasingly embedded across the organization, we are confident it will support a structural improvement in our operating expense ratio over the long term.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our financial results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we use non-GAAP financial measures, namely non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income attributable to ordinary shareholders, non-GAAP operating margin and non-GAAP net income margin, as supplemental measures to evaluate our operating results and make financial and operational decisions. Non-GAAP income from operations represents income from operations excluding share-based compensation expenses. Non-GAAP operating margin is equal to non-GAAP income from operations divided by revenues. Non-GAAP net income represents net income (loss) excluding changes in fair value of long-term investments and share-based compensation expenses. Non-GAAP net income margin is equal to non-GAAP net income divided by revenues. Non-GAAP net income attributable to ordinary shareholders represents net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders excluding changes in fair value of long-term investments and share-based compensation expenses.
By excluding the impact of changes in fair value of long-term investments and share-based compensation expenses, which are non-cash charges, we believe that non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of certain earnings or losses that we include in results based on U.S. GAAP. We believe that non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information about our operating results, enhance the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility into key metrics used by our management in its financial and operational decision-making.
Our non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to U.S. GAAP results. In addition, our calculation of non-GAAP financial information may be different from the calculation used by other companies, and therefore comparability may be limited.
Reconciliations of our non-GAAP results to our U.S. GAAP financial measures are set forth in tables at the end of this earnings release, which provide more details on the non-GAAP financial measures.
