First, we continue to optimize our supply-chain efficiency across all markets. As we expand globally, we work with local suppliers where it makes operational sense, which help us maintain product freshness and manage logistic costs. This approach supports our commitment to delivering high-quality product to consumers while maintaining operational efficiency. Second, we have prioritized cost optimization and operational efficiency across our business.

Third, we expect our geographic diversification into Southeast Asia and the North American market will reduce our dependencies on any single market while creating new growth opportunities. These strategic initiatives have positioned us well to navigate market uncertainties while we continue to delivering strong financial results. Next, let's go through the financials. Our net revenue for the first quarter increased by 35.4% year-over-year to RMB3,392.7 million, mainly driven by continued expansion of our tea house network. Among them, net revenues from franchisee tea house grew 31.8% to RMB3,149.9 million, representing 92% -- 92.8% of our total revenues.μ…‹μ§Έ, λ™λ‚¨μ•„μ‹œμ•„μ™€ 뢁미 μ‹œμž₯으둜의 지리적 λ‹€κ°ν™”λŠ” 단일 μ‹œμž₯에 λŒ€ν•œ μ˜μ‘΄λ„λ₯Ό μ€„μ΄λŠ” λ™μ‹œμ— μƒˆλ‘œμš΄ μ„±μž₯ 기회λ₯Ό μ°½μΆœν•  κ²ƒμœΌλ‘œ μ˜ˆμƒλ©λ‹ˆλ‹€. μ΄λŸ¬ν•œ μ „λž΅μ  μ΄λ‹ˆμ…”ν‹°λΈŒλ“€μ€ μ‹œμž₯ λΆˆν™•μ‹€μ„±μ„ ν—€μ³λ‚˜κ°€λ©΄μ„œλ„ μ§€μ†μ μœΌλ‘œ κ°•λ ₯ν•œ 재무 μ„±κ³Όλ₯Ό 달성할 수 μžˆλ„λ‘ 우리λ₯Ό 잘 ν¬μ§€μ…”λ‹ν–ˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€.

Net revenue from company-owned tea houses increased RMB107.7 million to RMB242.8 million, accounts for 7.2% of total revenues. The average monthly GMV per tea house in Greater China was RMB431,973 in the first quarter. While this represents a sequential decrease from the fourth quarter last year, it's important to note that this primarily reflecting two factors. First, seasonality as the first quarter typically experiences a low consumer traffic following the Chinese New Year holiday period. And the second, our strategic network expansion, which includes a higher proportion of tea houses in their honeymoon phases.

Operating income was RMB820.8 million with an operating margin of 24.2% compared to 28.2% in the first quarter of 2024 and 19.3% in the fourth quarter of 2024. This change reflects our strategic investment in brand-building and marketing for new products launches, R&D to enhance our product offerings, digital infrastructure to improve customer experience and talent acquisition to support global expansion. To elaborate, operating costs for the company owned tea houses were RMB157 million, up 170% from a year-ago, but down 3.8% from the fourth quarter of 2024.

On this per store basis, operating costs have decreased compared to the full-year 2024, showing improved efficiency at its store-level. Other operating costs increased by 79.6% to RMB172.5 million. This was primarily driven by higher payroll, utility, office expenses and travel costs to support a rapid expansion of our franchisee tea house network. As a percentage of total net revenue, the other operating costs were 5.1%, up from 3.8% in the same quarter of 2024.

As a percentage of total net revenue, sales and marketing expenses were 8.8% compared to 4.5% in the same quarter of 2024.

The growth was mainly attributable to higher R&D expenses for upgrading existing tea recipe and rolling out our new product, increased IT service costs to support business development and operational efficiency and higher payroll expenses resulting from an expanded administrative team to support our growing business. G&A expenses accounted for 10.4% of total net revenues compared to 8.7% in the same quarter of last year. As a result, net income increased by 13.8% to RMB677.3 million, resulting in a net income margin of 20% compared to 23.7% a year ago and 19.3% in the fourth quarter of 2024.μ΄λŸ¬ν•œ μ„±μž₯은 주둜 κΈ°μ‘΄ μ°¨ λ ˆμ‹œν”Ό μ—…κ·Έλ ˆμ΄λ“œ 및 μ‹ μ œν’ˆ μΆœμ‹œλ₯Ό μœ„ν•œ R&D λΉ„μš© 증가, 사업 개발 및 운영 νš¨μœ¨μ„± 지원을 μœ„ν•œ IT μ„œλΉ„μŠ€ λΉ„μš© 증가, 그리고 μ„±μž₯ν•˜λŠ” 사업을 μ§€μ›ν•˜κΈ° μœ„ν•΄ ν™•λŒ€λœ κ΄€λ¦¬νŒ€μœΌλ‘œ μΈν•œ κΈ‰μ—¬ λΉ„μš© 증가에 κΈ°μΈν–ˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. μΌλ°˜κ΄€λ¦¬λΉ„λŠ” 전체 순맀좜의 10.4%λ₯Ό μ°¨μ§€ν–ˆμœΌλ©°, μ΄λŠ” μž‘λ…„ 동기 8.7%와 λΉ„κ΅λ©λ‹ˆλ‹€. κ·Έ κ²°κ³Ό, μˆœμ΄μ΅μ€ 13.8% μ¦κ°€ν•œ 6μ–΅ 7,730만 μœ„μ•ˆμ„ κΈ°λ‘ν–ˆμœΌλ©°, 순이읡λ₯ μ€ 20%둜 μž‘λ…„ 동기 23.7% 및 2024λ…„ 4λΆ„κΈ° 19.3%와 λΉ„κ΅λ©λ‹ˆλ‹€.
The decline of the net income margin versus last year Q1 due to, firstly, continued investing in branding and marketing, especially in new products and overseas market. And secondly, net loss occurred by overseas operations, which were still at a ramping-up stage. Basic and diluted net income per ordinary share was RMB3.92 during the first quarter.

Our IPO in April raised a total gross proceeds of approximately $472.9 million, including the over-allotment option, providing significant flexibility to fund our growth initiatives and navigate market uncertainties. We will not be providing formal quarterly financial guidance at this time. Instead, we are focused on executing our long-term growth strategies and delivering lasting value to our shareholders.

Aaron Huang: Thanks. That's a good question. As of March 31st, 2025, our 169 overseas stores, including 157 in Malaysia, 10 in Singapore and two in Thailand, representing only 2.5% of our global network, but it demonstrated exceptional growth quality. Overseas GMV reached RMB178 million, growing 85.3% year-over-year, highlighting the tremendous growth potential of the overseas market. Taking Singapore as an example, our 10 stores achieved an average monthly GMV of approximately RMB1.8 million per store in Q1 '25, substantially higher than the Greater China market average. This demonstrates the higher spending power and the profitability potential in the early stage of development in the overseas market, providing crucial support for long-term growth trajectory. We have achieved strong results in our strategic markets. In Singapore, we have added four new stores in Q1 with a total store count now of 10 stores. These stores delivered an excellent per store GMV performance in Q1. In Indonesia, Jakarta, fresh store opened on April 11th with exceptional performance, over 10,000 cups in the first three days, 5,000 plus registered users in the first week, daily average now of 2,000 plus cups in April. In United States, Los Angeles flagship stores opened in May with over 5,000 cups sold on the opening day, generating strong market emphasis. These results showing that we can tailor our product offerings and the in-store experience to local market demands, delivering authentic regional characteristics for consumers. This help us build our brand and connect with customer globally. At a current stage, we are focused on building our team and the system overseas. This help us create a strong foundation for healthy long-term sustainable growth. When it comes to opening new store abroad, we care more about quality and the key performance rather than just how fast we can expect. Moving forward, we will continue to expand our global footprint while maintaining steady growth in Greater China market. By strategically enhancing the contribution of the overseas stores, we aim to propel towards the goal of becoming a world leading tea drink brand.

Aaron Huang: Thank you. Thank you for the question. Yeah, SSSG is measured for stores that have been opened for at least 13 months and have generated sales in both periods being compared in the first quarter of 2025. So, about 3,300 stores met these criterias. This made up around 50.6% of our total store portfolio at the end-of-the quarter. SSSG experienced a declining as our store-level performance started to follow a normalized trajectory. As a result, Q1 SSSG was negative 18.9% after we rapidly scaled our new tea house expansion from 4,000 plus to 6,600 plus just within one year. This unprecedented growth strategy helped Chagee to rapidly take the leading market-share in the premium category of fresh made tea drinks, far ahead of our closest peers. Now, Chagee is transitioning from a rapid market penetration strategy to a same-store sales growth strategy. So to do so, we focus on new product, more usage occasions, exciting marketing events and excellent full customer experience through day-by-day operations. So we work closely with our partners to grow in a healthy way by creating high brand value to win consumers instead of just by cutting prices. So, we have seen consistent and healthy growth in the same-store sales over the last several years in some of the more mature markets, for example, in Jiangnan and Guangxi provinces, where we have operated for over six, seven years. The same-store sales growth in Q1 still reached high-single-digit to high-teen level.
