The rapid growth of the NEV market has created new opportunities for auto insurance offerings and propelled revenue growth of auto insurance providers. Cheche started to collaborate with NEV manufactures in 2022 and such collaborations yielded considerable results in 2023
 and 2024
. Cheche believes that the further growth of the NEV market and the introduction of innovative NEV auto insurance solutions will further fuel the revenue contribution by its partnership with NEV manufacturers. The management of Cheche utilizes the number of partnerships with NEV manufacturers, the number of insurance policies embedded in the new NEV deliveries, and the amount of corresponding premium generated from such embedded policies as the main operating metrics to evaluate its business and presents such operating metrics for investors to better understand and evaluate Cheche’s business.

Management Comments

“Our latest financial results validate the success of our strategic focus on the intelligent connected electric vehicle insurance sector. Revenues for the fourth quarter achieved robust growth of over 13%, and notably, our NEV-related business has experienced a remarkable 171% growth in written premiums over the same period. This strong growth momentum, coupled with our adjusted operating income for the quarter, demonstrates our ability to balance business expansion with operational efficiency. By leveraging technological innovation to enhance customer experiences and drive sustainable growth, we are well-positioned to maintain this upward trajectory,” said Lei Zhang, Founder, CEO, and Chairman of Cheche Group.

“As we reflect on 2024, we are thrilled by the remarkable growth in China’s NEV market, which saw sales surge to 12.9 million units, marking a 35.5% increase from the previous year. This trend underscores the immense market opportunity for our company to innovate and expand our auto Insurtech offerings, particularly in the intelligent connected NEV market where the integration of AI with intelligent connected NEVs is revolutionizing traditional insurance practices by not only delivering an innovative and seamless customer experience but also setting a new standard for AI applications across specialized sectors.

“We are now aligned with the majority of significant NEV manufacturers in China and our AI driven next generation of solutions will embed us deeper into the value chain and significantly improve the operational efficiency for insurers and cost savings for consumers in this dynamic market. We remain committed to leveraging our expertise in intelligent digital insurance platforms, technical capabilities and precise insights into market demand to capitalize on these trends and further establish ourselves as an Insurtech leader in the largest automotive market in the world.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Cheche has provided in this press release non-GAAP financial measures that have not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP).

Cheche uses adjusted cost of revenues, adjusted selling and marketing expenses, adjusted general and administrative expenses, adjusted research and development expenses, adjusted total cost and operating expenses, adjusted operating loss/income, adjusted net loss/income and adjusted net loss/income per share, which are non-GAAP financial measures, in evaluating our operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. 

Cheche defines adjusted total cost and operating expenses as total cost and operating expenses adjusted for the impact of share-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets related to the acquisition of Cheche Insurance Sales & Services Co., Ltd. (previously named Fanhua Times Sales and Service Co., Ltd), listing-related professional service fees and dispute resolution expenses, representing expenses Cheche incurred in a dispute with a certain security holder. Cheche defines adjusted operating loss/income as operating loss/income adjusted for the impact of share-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets related to the acquisition of Cheche Insurance Sales & Services Co., Ltd. (previously named Fanhua Times Sales and Service Co., Ltd), listing-related professional service fees and dispute resolution expenses. Cheche defines adjusted net loss/income  as net loss/income adjusted for the impact of share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets and changes in fair value of amounts due to a related party related to the acquisition of Cheche Insurance Sales & Services Co., Ltd. (previously named Fanhua Times Sales and Service Co., Ltd), change in fair value of warrants, listing related professional service fees and dispute resolution expenses. Adjusted net loss/income per share, basic and diluted, is calculated as adjusted net loss/income divided by weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding.

Cheche believes that these non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in its business that could otherwise be distorted by the impact of share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets related to acquisition, and change in fair value of amounts due to a related party related to the acquisition of Cheche Insurance Sales & Services Co., Ltd. (previously named Fanhua Times Sales and Service Co., Ltd), change in fair value of warrants, and listing related professional service fees and dispute resolution expenses. Cheche believes that such non-GAAP financial measures also provide useful information about its operating results, enhance the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects, and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by its management in its financial and operational decision making.

The non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. They should not be considered in isolation or construed as alternatives to net loss or any other measure of performance or as an indicator of Cheche’s operating performance. Further, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures to the Company’s data. Cheche encourages investors and others to review the Company’s financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure. Investors are encouraged to compare the historical non-GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Cheche mitigates these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP performance measures, all of which should be considered when evaluating its performance.
