Gravitas Education Holdings, Inc. Reports First Half 2022 Financial Results

 

BEIJING, December 19, 2022 -- Gravitas Education Holdings, Inc. (“GEHI” or the “Company”) (NYSE: GEHI), a leading early childhood education service provider in China and Singapore, today announced its unaudited financial results for the first half of 2022.

 

First Six Months of 2022 Financial Results

 

· Net revenues from continuing operations were $29.6 million, compared with $39.2 million for the first six months of 2021.

 

· Gross profit from continuing operations was $5.6 million, compared with $12.3 million for the first six months of 2021.

 

· Net loss from continuing operations attributable to ordinary shareholders of GEHI for the first six months of 2022 was $3.1 million, compared with $2.7 million of net income from continuing operations attributable to ordinary shareholders of GEHI for the same period of 2021. Adjusted net loss from continuing operations attributable to ordinary shareholders1 of GEHI for the first six months of 2022 was $2.6 million, compared with $3.8 million of adjusted net income from continuing operations attributable to ordinary shareholders of GEHI for the same period of 2021.

 

· Net income attributable to ordinary shareholders of GEHI for the first six months of 2022 was $26.8 million, compared with $4.4 million for the same period of 2021. Adjusted net income attributable to ordinary shareholders1 of GEHI for the first six months of 2022 was $27.3 million, compared with $5.6 million for the same period of 2021.

 

“In the first half of 2022, we followed the government’s policy guidance and successfully completed the divestiture of our directly-operated kindergartens. In parallel, we rebranded the Company as Gravitas Education to mark our entry into a new development stage with an increasingly diverse business mix. In our day-to-day operations, we continued to strengthen our core business by investing in research and curriculum development, operational supervision, training programs and management system development, and adopted a multi-brand strategy for our products and services. These efforts have enabled us to maintain leadership in the preschool education sector. At the same time, we carried forward a series of new business endeavors, including the formal launch of directly-operated children’s sports centers and dancing and art centers in China, as well as the offering of a suite of childcare solutions. Facing a declining birth rate in China, we will dedicate ourselves to ongoing innovations and focus on long-term value creation for the Company.” said Ms. Yanlai Shi, Co-founder, Director and Chief Executive Officer of GEHI.

 

 

1 Adjusted net income (loss) (from continuing operations) attributable to ordinary shareholders is a non-GAAP financial measure, which is defined as net income (loss) (from continuing operations) attributable to ordinary shareholders excluding share-based compensation expenses and changes in redeemable non-controlling interests. See “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and “Reconciliations of GAAP and non-GAAP results” elsewhere in this earnings release.

 

 

 

 

“Year to date, we have encountered significant business challenges as a result of COVID-19 outbreaks across the country, which, in particular, affected the kindergarten operations in Beijing and Shanghai. These challenges have slowed down our topline growth and caused us to underperform as compared to our budget. We took a series of measures, including stringent cost control to mitigate the negative impact, and made sure our teams remained stable and confident. Going through the six months’ challenges, our team morale only grew stronger. As kindergarten operations get resumed in July, we will work harder to reinforce our core competency in serving kindergartens and play-and-learn centers (“PLCs”), while steadily pressing ahead with new business initiatives.”

 

“In GEHI’s strategic and business planning, we have always treated children’s growth as our top priority and remained true to our mission. In this new phase of development, we will guide ourselves under the spirit and requirement of government policies, and function as a ‘central brain’ platform to empower facilities within our network. We believe our core business model, which merges our PLC, kindergarten and childcare operational expertise, along with our continuous innovations, will make us the one-stop solution for institutions and operators, and contribute to the long-term healthy development of preschool education in China.” concluded Ms. Shi.

 

First Six Months of 2022 Financial Results

 

Net Revenues from Continuing Operations

 

Net revenues from continuing operations for the first six months of 2022 were $29.6 million, a decrease of 24.5% from $39.2 million for the same period of 2021.

 

Services revenues from continuing operations for the first six months of 2022 were $27.3 million, a decrease of 23.0% from $35.4 million for the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to decreased tuition fees as the Company’s directly operated facilities were temporarily closed for various periods during the first six months of 2022 as a result of the recurrence of COVID-19, whereas those facilities were in normal operation for the same period of 2021. The aforementioned decrease in tuition fees was partially offset by an increase in education services revenues of $1.3 million for the first six months of 2022. Franchise services revenues also decreased owing to the slow-down of play-and-learn franchise expansion and lower revenue generated from franchisees due to the impact of recurrence of the COVID-19 for the first six months of 2022, whereas the majority of franchised play-and-learn centers have resumed operation during the first six months of 2021.

 

Product revenues for the first six months of 2022 were $2.3 million, compared with $3.7 million for the same period in 2021. The decrease was mainly due to a decrease in the amount of merchandise sold through the Company’s franchise network as the vast majority of the Company’s franchised facilities were temporarily closed for part of the first six months of 2022 as a result of the recurrence of COVID-19, whereas they were in normal operation during the first half of 2021.

Cost of revenues for services from continuing operations for the first six months of 2022 was $22.8 million, compared with $25.2 million for the same period of 2021. The decrease was mainly due to a decrease in the cost of enrichment courses at directly operated facilities due to the temporary closure during the first half of 2022, whereas all of which were in normal operation during the first six months of 2021. Cost of products revenues for the first six months of 2022 was $1.2 million, compared with $1.6 million for the same period last year. The decrease was in line with the decrease in products revenues.

We believe that EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, and adjusted basic and diluted net income per ADS, help identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of certain expenses that we include in income from operations and net income. We believe that EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, and adjusted basic and diluted net income per ADS, provide useful information about our operating results, enhance the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by our management in its financial and operational decision-making.

 

EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, and adjusted basic and diluted net income per ADS, should not be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to net income or any other measure of performance or as an indicator of our operating performance. Investors are encouraged to review the historical adjusted financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, and adjusted basic and diluted net income per ADS, presented here 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 our data. We encourage investors and others to review our financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
