**KE Holdings Inc. Announces Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2025 Unaudited Financial Results and a Final Cash Dividend**

BEIJING, China, March 16, 2026 - KE Holdings Inc. ("**Beike**" or the "**Company**") (NYSE: BEKE; HKEX: 2423), a leading integrated online and offline platform for housing transactions and services, today announced its unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, and also announced a final cash dividend.

**Business and Financial Highlights for the Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2025**

· **Gross transaction value (GTV)** <sup>1</sup> **in 2025** was RMB3,183.3 billion (US$455.2 billion),
 a decrease of 5.0% year-over-year. **GTV of existing home transactions** was RMB2,151.5
 billion (US$307.7 billion), a decrease of 4.2% year-over-year. **GTV of new home transactions** was RMB890.9 billion (US$127.4 billion), a decrease of 8.2% year-over-year.

**In the fourth quarter of 2025, GTV** was RMB724.1 billion (US$103.6 billion), a decrease of 36.7% year-over-year. **GTV of existing home transactions** was RMB482.0 billion (US$68.9 billion), a decrease of 35.3% year-over-year. **GTV of new home transactions** was RMB207.0 billion (US$29.6 billion), a decrease of 41.7% year-over-year.

 billion (US$3.2 billion), a decrease of 28.7% year-over-year.

· **Net income in 2025** was RMB2,991 million (US$428 million), a decrease of 26.7% year-over-year. **Adjusted net income** <sup>2</sup> **in 2025** was RMB5,017 million (US$717 million),
 a decrease of 30.4% year-over-year.

<sup>1</sup> GTV for a given period is calculated as the total value of all transactions which the Company facilitated on the Company's platform and evidenced by signed contracts as of the end of the period, including the value of the existing home transactions, new home transactions, home renovation and furnishing and emerging and other services (excluding home rental services), and including transactions that are contracted but pending closing at the end of the relevant period. For the avoidance of doubt, for transactions that failed to close afterwards, the corresponding GTV represented by these transactions will be deducted accordingly.

<sup>2</sup> Adjusted net income (loss) is a non-GAAP financial measure, which is defined as net income (loss), excluding (i) share-based compensation expenses, (ii) amortization of intangible assets resulting from acquisitions and business cooperation agreement, (iii) changes in fair value from long-term investments, loan receivables measured at fair value and contingent consideration, (iv) impairment of goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets, (v) impairment of investments, and (vi) tax effects of the above non-GAAP adjustments. Please refer to the section titled "Unaudited reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP results" for details.

**In the fourth quarter of 2025, net income** was RMB82 million (US$12 million), compared to RMB577 million in the same period of 2024. **Adjusted net income** was RMB517 million (US$74 million), a decrease of 61.5% year-over-year.

· **Number of stores** was 61,139 as of December 31, 2025, a 18.5% increase from one year ago. **Number of active stores** <sup>3</sup> was 58,376 as of December 31, 2025, a 17.5%
 increase from one year ago.

· **Number of agents** was 523,009 as of December 31, 2025, a 4.6% increase from one year ago. **Number of active agents** <sup>4</sup> was 445,632 as of December 31, 2025, relatively
 flat compared with one year ago.

· **Mobile monthly active users (MAU)** <sup>5</sup> averaged 43.8 million in the fourth quarter of
 2025, compared to 43.2 million in the same period of 2024.

Mr. Stanley Yongdong Peng, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Beike, commented, "In 2025, in response to the profound evolution of residential service demands, we centered our efforts on customer value and drove a strategic upgrade toward efficiency-driven growth.

In our home transaction services, we leveraged data and AI capabilities to reshape our service and business models, consistently enhancing the platform's professional service competencies and operational efficiency. In our home renovation and furnishing and home rental services, we focused on improving the quality of profitability and establishing sustainable, replicable operating models, bringing both businesses into a healthier stage of development."

<sup>3</sup> Based on our accumulated operational experience, we have introduced the operating metrics of number of active stores and number of active agents on our platform, which can better reflect the operational activeness of stores and agents on our platform.

"Active stores" as of a given date is defined as stores on our platform excluding the stores which (i) have not facilitated any housing transaction during the preceding 60 days, (ii) do not have any agent who has engaged in any critical steps in housing transactions (including but not limited to introducing new properties, attracting new customers and conducting property showings) during the preceding seven days, or (iii) have not been visited by any agent during the preceding 14 days. The number of active stores was 49,693 as of December 31, 2024.

<sup>4</sup> "Active agents" as of a given date is defined as agents on our platform excluding the agents who (i) delivered notice to leave but have not yet completed the exit procedures, (ii) have not engaged in any critical steps in housing transactions (including but not limited to introducing new properties, attracting new customers and conducting property showings) during the preceding 30 days, or (iii) have not participated in facilitating any housing transaction during the preceding three months. The number of active agents was 445,271 as of December 31, 2024.

<sup>5</sup> "Mobile monthly active users" or "mobile MAU" are to the sum of (i) the number of accounts that have accessed our platform through our *Beike* or *Lianjia* mobile app (with duplication eliminated) at least once during a month, and (ii) the number of Weixin users that have accessed our platform through our Weixin Mini Programs at least once during a month. Average mobile MAU for any period is calculated by dividing (i) the sum of the Company's mobile MAUs for each month of such period, by (ii) the number of months in such period.

"Looking ahead, we believe that the true ability to navigate market cycles stems not from scale itself, but from the capacity to consistently create genuine value for consumers. In 2026, we will respond more profoundly to customer needs, building systematic service capabilities that span the residential lifecycle. Meanwhile, we will leverage AI technology to reconstruct our competitive moats, further amplifying the professional value of service providers and platform efficiency, and ultimately elevating the living experience for consumers through higher-quality services," concluded Mr. Peng.

Mr. Tao Xu, Executive Director and Chief Financial Officer of Beike, added, "In 2025, we implemented a series of efficiency-enhancing initiatives focused on optimizing unit economics and the Company's cost structure, thereby strengthening the Company's operational resilience for the future. Despite a challenging market environment, the Company's net revenues grew by 1.2% year-over-year to RMB94.6 billion in 2025. Our cost and expense structure also improved: the contribution margin for new home transaction services increased by 0.2 percentage point year-over-year in 2025, while the contribution margin for existing home transaction services improved sequentially in the fourth quarter of 2025. Profitability for home renovation and furnishing, as well as home rental services, continued to progress, achieving a significant narrowing of loss and full-year profitability at the operating level, respectively. Operational efficiency also trended upward, with the ratio of operating expenses to net revenues decreasing by 1.4 percentage points year-over-year for the full year 2025.

We remain steadfast in our commitment to rewarding shareholders through proactive capital allocation measures. In 2025, we have in aggregate repurchased shares with a total consideration of approximately US$921 million, representing a year-over-year increase of approximately 29%. Meanwhile, we are here to declare a final cash dividend, with an aggregate amount of approximately US$0.3 billion. Altogether, our total shareholder return for 2025 reached approximately US$1.2 billion, up over 9% year-over-year.

Looking ahead, we will maintain prudent financial discipline and enhance resource allocation efficiency. While ensuring support for long-term strategic investments, we will continue to optimize our capital allocation structure to create sustainable, long-term value for our shareholders."

**Fourth Quarter 2025 Financial Results**

**<u>Net Revenues</u>**

**Net revenues** decreased by 28.7% to RMB22.2 billion (US$3.2 billion) in the fourth quarter of 2025 from RMB31.1 billion in the same period of 2024, primarily attributable to the high base of net revenues from new home and existing home transaction services, which is partially offset by the increase of net revenues from home rental services.

· **Net revenues from existing home transaction services** decreased by 39.0% to RMB5.4 billion
 (US$0.8 billion) in the fourth quarter of 2025 from RMB8.9 billion in the same period of
 2024, primarily due to a high base effect for GTV of existing home transactions, which decreased
 by 35.3% to RMB482.0 billion (US$68.9 billion) in the fourth quarter of 2025 from RMB744.8
 billion in the same period of 2024.

Among that, **(i) commission revenue** decreased by 42.9% to RMB4.2 billion (US$0.6 billion) in the fourth quarter of 2025 from RMB7.4 billion in the same period of 2024, primarily due to a high base effect for GTV of existing home transactions served by *Lianjia* stores, which decreased by 43.0% to RMB177.6 billion (US$25.4 billion) in the fourth quarter of 2025 from RMB311.7 billion in the same period of 2024; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(ii) revenues derived from platform service, franchise service and other value-added services**, which are mostly charged to connected stores and agents on the Company's platform, decreased by 19.9% to RMB1.2 billion (US$0.2 billion) in the fourth quarter of 2025 from RMB1.5 billion in the same period of 2024, primarily due to a high base effect for GTV of existing home transactions served by connected agents on the Company's platform in the same period of 2024, which decreased by 29.7% to RMB304.5 billion (US$43.5 billion) in the fourth quarter of 2025 from RMB433.2 billion in the same period of 2024.

· **Net revenues from new home transaction services** decreased by 44.5% to RMB7.3 billion (US$1.0
 billion) in the fourth quarter of 2025 from RMB13.1 billion in the same period of 2024, primarily
 due to a high base effect for GTV of new home transactions in the same period of 2024, which
 decreased by 41.7% to RMB207.0 billion (US$29.6 billion) in the fourth quarter of 2025 from
 RMB355.3 billion in the same period of 2024. Of these, the GTV of new home transactions facilitated
 on *Beike* platform through connected agents, dedicated sales team with the expertise
 in new home transaction services and other sales channels decreased by 41.3% to RMB168.7
 billion (US$24.1 billion) in the fourth quarter of 2025 from RMB287.5 billion in the same
 period of 2024, while the GTV of new home transactions served by *Lianjia* brand decreased
 by 43.5% to RMB38.3 billion (US$5.5 billion) in the fourth quarter of 2025 from RMB67.8 billion
 in the same period of 2024.

· **Net revenues from home renovation and furnishing** decreased by 12.0% to RMB3.6 billion (US$0.5
 billion) in the fourth quarter of 2025 from RMB4.1 billion in the same period of 2024, as
 the Company proactively optimized the channel mix and moderated pace of certain non-brokerage
 channels.

· **Net revenues from home rental services** increased by 18.1% to RMB5.4 billion (US$0.8 billion)
 in the fourth quarter of 2025 from RMB4.6 billion in the same period of 2024, primarily attributable
 to the increase in the number of rental units under the *Carefree Rent* model, partially
 offset by the impact of an increasing proportion of a new product offering within the *Carefree Rent* business. Under the new model, the homeowners retain control over and beneficial
 interest in the properties, while the Company provides leasing agency services and lease
 term management services to both homeowners and tenants. Accordingly, under the new model,
 revenue is recognized based on net service fees derived from two sources: (1) commissions
 earned for facilitating the signing of lease agreements between homeowners and tenants; and
 (2) fees for lease term management services rendered throughout the lease period.

· **Net revenues from emerging and other services** were RMB459 million (US$66 million) in the
 fourth quarter of 2025, relatively flat compared with RMB439 million in the same period of
 2024.

 and other sales channels decreased by 46.6% to RMB4.6 billion (US$0.7 billion) in the fourth
 quarter of 2025 from RMB8.7 billion in the same period of 2024, primarily due to the decrease
 in GTV of new home transactions facilitated through connected agents and other sales channels.

· **Commission and compensation – internal.** The Company's cost of revenues for internal
 commission and compensation decreased by 39.8% to RMB3.9 billion (US$0.6 billion) in the
 fourth quarter of 2025 from RMB6.5 billion in the same period of 2024, primarily attributable
 to the decrease in commission of *Lianjia* agents, consistent with the decreased GTV
 of existing and new home transactions they served by, as well as the decreased fixed personnel
 costs due to Company's disciplined headcount control.

· **Cost of home renovation and furnishing.** The Company's cost of revenues for home renovation
 and furnishing was RMB2.6 billion (US$0.4 billion) in the fourth quarter of 2025, a decrease
 of 10.8% from RMB2.9 billion in the same period of 2024, which was in line with the trend
 in net revenues from home renovation and furnishing.

· **Cost of home rental services.** The Company's cost of revenues for home rental services,
 which mainly consists of variable cost, increased by 10.9% to RMB4.8 billion (US$0.7 billion)
 in the fourth quarter of 2025 from RMB4.4 billion in the same period of 2024, primarily attributable
 to the growth of net revenues from home rental services, partially offset by an improved
 contribution margin resulting from an increasing proportion of the new product offering with
 a higher contribution margin under the *Carefree Rent* business, as well as enhanced
 operational efficiency.

· **Cost related to stores.** The Company's cost related to stores decreased by 9.6% to RMB0.7
 billion (US$0.1 billion) in the fourth quarter of 2025 from RMB0.8 billion in the same period

**<u>Gross Profit</u>**

**Gross profit** decreased by 33.7% to RMB4.8 billion (US$0.7 billion) in the fourth quarter of 2025 from RMB7.2 billion in the same period of 2024. Gross margin decreased to 21.4% in the fourth quarter of 2025 from 23.0% in the same period of 2024, primarily due to reduced contribution of net revenues from existing home and new home transaction services, which historically carried higher contribution margins than the overall gross margin, partially offset by the increased contribution margin of home rental services.

**<u>Income (Loss) from Operations</u>**

**Total operating expenses** decreased by 20.4% to RMB4.9 billion (US$0.7 billion) in the fourth quarter of 2025 from RMB6.2 billion in the same period of 2024, primarily due to the Company's cost optimization initiatives.

· **General and administrative expenses** decreased by 23.9% to RMB2.3 billion (US$0.3 billion) in
 the fourth quarter of 2025 from RMB3.0 billion in the same period of 2024, primarily due

 the provision for credit losses and share-based compensation expenses.

· **Sales and marketing expenses** decreased by 17.7% to RMB1.9 billion (US$0.3 billion) in the fourth
 quarter of 2025 from RMB2.3 billion in the same period of 2024, primarily due to the Company's
 cost optimization initiatives, including lower personnel costs as well as reduced advertising
 and promotion expenses.

· **Research and development expenses** were RMB715 million (US$102 million) in the fourth quarter of
 2025, relatively flat compared with RMB739 million in the same period of 2024.

**Loss from operations** was RMB147 million (US$21 million) in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to income from operations of RMB1,011 million in the same period of 2024. **Operating margin** decreased to negative 0.7% in the fourth quarter of 2025 from 3.2% in the same period of 2024, primarily due to the decreased gross profit margin, as well as certain one-off expenses related to the Company's cost optimization initiatives incurred in the fourth quarter of 2025.

**Adjusted income from operations**<sup>6</sup> was RMB323 million (US$46 million) in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to RMB1,755 million in the same period of 2024. **Adjusted operating margin**<sup>7</sup> was 1.5% in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to 5.6% in the same period of 2024. **Adjusted EBITDA**<sup>8</sup> was RMB910 million (US$130 million) in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to RMB2,343 million in the same period of 2024.

**<u>Cash, Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash and Short-Term Investments</u>**

As of December 31, 2025, the combined balance of the Company's cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments amounted to RMB55.5 billion (US$7.9 billion).

**Fiscal Year 2025 Financial Results**

**<u>Net Revenues</u>**

**Net revenues** were RMB94.6 billion (US$13.5 billion) in 2025, compared to RMB93.5 billion in 2024, primarily attributable to the increase of net revenues from home rental services and home renovation and furnishing, which was partially offset by the decrease of net revenues from new home and existing home transaction services.

· **Net revenues from existing home transaction services** decreased by 11.3% to RMB25.0 billion
 (US$3.6 billion) in 2025 from RMB28.2 billion in 2024. GTV of existing home transactions
 decreased by 4.2% to RMB2,151.5 billion (US$307.7 billion) in 2025 from RMB2,246.5 billion
 in 2024. The steeper decline in net revenues relative to GTV in existing home transaction
 services was primarily attributable to a higher contribution from GTV of existing home transaction
 services served by connected agents on the Company's platform, for which revenue is
 recorded on a net basis from platform service, franchise service and other value-added services,
 while for GTV served by *Lianjia* brand, the revenue is recorded on a gross commission
 revenue basis.

Among that, **(i) commission revenue** decreased by 13.5% to RMB20.0 billion (US$2.9 billion) in 2025, from RMB23.1 billion in 2024, primarily due to the decreased GTV of existing home transactions served by *Lianjia* stores of 12.7% to RMB802.1 billion (US$114.7 billion) in 2025 from RMB918.5 billion in 2024; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(ii) revenues derived from platform service, franchise service and other value-added services**, which are mostly charged to connected stores and agents on the Company's platform, were RMB5.0 billion (US$0.7 billion) in 2025, relatively stable compared with RMB5.1 billion in 2024, while GTV of existing home transactions served by connected agents on the Company's platform increased by 1.6% to RMB1,349.4 billion (US$193.0 billion) in 2025 from RMB1,328.0 billion in 2024.

· **Net revenues from new home transaction services** decreased by 9.1% to RMB30.6 billion (US$4.4
 billion) in 2025 from RMB33.7 billion in 2024, primarily due to the decrease of GTV of new
 home transactions of 8.2% to RMB890.9 billion (US$127.4 billion) in 2025 from RMB970.0 billion

 in 2025 from RMB14.3 billion in 2024, primarily attributable to the increase in the number

 and furnishing increased by 3.4% to RMB10.6 billion (US$1.5 billion) in 2025 from RMB10.2

The decline in gross margin was partially offset by the increased contribution margin of home rental services.

Unless otherwise stated, all translations from RMB to US$ were made at the rate of RMB6.9931 to US$1.00, the noon buying rate in effect on December 31, 2025, in the H.10 statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board.

For analytical presentation, all percentages are calculated using the numbers presented in the financial information contained in this earnings release.

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

The Company uses adjusted income (loss) from operations, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) attributable to KE Holdings Inc.'s ordinary shareholders, adjusted operating margin, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income (loss) per ADS attributable to KE Holdings Inc.'s ordinary shareholders, each a non-GAAP financial measure, in evaluating its operating results and formulating its business plan. Beike believes that these non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in the Company's business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of certain expenses that the Company includes in its net income (loss). Beike also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information about its results of operations, 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 formulating its business plan. A limitation of using these non-GAAP financial measures is that these non-GAAP financial measures exclude share-based compensation expenses that have been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense in the Company's business. The Group recognized fair value loss and impairment in relation to its investments in *Beihaojia* business. As such impairment does not represent a non-recurring item, it has not been excluded when calculating Non-GAAP financial measures.

The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to gross profit, net income (loss) or any other measure of performance or as an indicator of its operating performance. Investors are encouraged to review these non-GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. The non-GAAP financial measures 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 the Company's data. Beike encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure. **Adjusted income (loss) from operations** is defined as income (loss) from operations, excluding (i) share-based compensation expenses, (ii) amortization of intangible assets resulting from acquisitions and business cooperation agreement, and (iii) impairment of goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets. **Adjusted operating margin** is defined as adjusted income (loss) from operations as a percentage of net revenues. **Adjusted net income (loss)** is defined as net income (loss), excluding (i) share-based compensation expenses, (ii) amortization of intangible assets resulting from acquisitions and business cooperation agreement, (iii) changes in fair value from long-term investments, loan receivables measured at fair value and contingent consideration, (iv) impairment of goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets, (v) impairment of investments, and (vi) tax effects of the above non-GAAP adjustments. **Adjusted net income (loss) attributable to KE Holdings Inc.'s ordinary shareholders** is defined as net income (loss) attributable to KE Holdings Inc.'s ordinary shareholders, excluding (i) share-based compensation expenses, (ii) amortization of intangible assets resulting from acquisitions and business cooperation agreement, (iii) changes in fair value from long-term investments, loan receivables measured at fair value and contingent consideration, (iv) impairment of goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets, (v) impairment of investments, (vi) tax effects of the above non-GAAP adjustments, and (vii) effects of non-GAAP adjustments on net income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests shareholders. **Adjusted EBITDA** is defined as net income (loss), excluding (i) income tax expense, (ii) share-based compensation expenses, (iii) amortization of intangible assets, (iv) depreciation of property, plant and equipment, (v) interest income, net, (vi) changes in fair value from long-term investments, loan receivables measured at fair value and contingent consideration, (vii) impairment of goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets, and (viii) impairment of investments. **Adjusted net income (loss) per ADS attributable to KE Holdings Inc.'s ordinary shareholders** is defined as adjusted net income (loss) attributable to KE Holdings Inc.'s ordinary shareholders divided by weighted average number of ADS outstanding during the periods used in calculating adjusted net income (loss) per ADS, basic and diluted.

**BUSINESS REVIEW AND OUTLOOK**

**Business Review for the Reporting Period**

In 2025, in response to the evolving consumer demand for residential services, we consistently optimized our business model and resource allocation with a focus on customer value, while driving improvements in operational efficiency. Benefiting from further diversification of the business structure and increased online penetration of home transaction services industry, our net revenues in 2025 remained resilient amidst a volatile external environment, representing a year-over-year increase of 1.2%. Notably, the GTV for both existing and new home transaction services outperformed the industry in 2025 in terms of year-over-year performance. Profitability for home renovation and furnishing, as well as home rental services, continued to improve, achieving a significant narrowing of operating loss and full-year profitability at the operating level, respectively. The cost and expense structure was further optimized, with the ratio of operating expenses to net revenues decreasing by 1.4 percentage points year-over-year in 2025.

Furthermore, we continued to enhance our shareholder return initiatives. In 2025, we have repurchased shares with an aggregate consideration of approximately US$921.1 million. Combined with the declared final cash dividend of approximately US$0.3 billion, the total shareholder return for 2025 reached approximately US$1.2 billion, representing a year-over-year increase of over 9%.

***Existing home transaction services***

In 2025, the total number of existing home sales facilitated by *Lianjia* and connected stores reached a record high, representing an 11.2% year-over-year increase. Impacted by market volatility, net revenues from existing home transaction services decreased by 11.3% year-over-year to RMB25.0 billion. Notably, revenues derived from platform service, franchise service and other value-added services under the existing home segment remained generally stable year-over-year, demonstrating the resilience of our platform-based model. On the platform side, we further expanded our network of high-quality stores and agents while focusing on enhancing the operating efficiency of service providers and the platform. As of the end of 2025, the number of active connected stores and active connected agents increased by 21.3% and 7.2% year-over-year, respectively, with existing home sales volume per active connected agent rising by 6% year-over-year. For our self-owned brand *Lianjia* , we focused on optimizing the store-to-agent structure to mitigate operational risks. Driven by improved operating efficiency, the contribution margin of our existing home transaction services remained stable year-over-year in the fourth quarter of 2025 and increased by 1.5 percentage points sequentially, notwithstanding the fluctuations in revenue.

Amidst the growing trend of increasing customer demands for diversified and specialized professional services in housing transaction, we continued to refine our business workflows and product designs. By upgrading our lead distribution mechanisms and driving the transition of agents toward specialized roles, we have strengthened our decision-making support for both homeowners and home buyers, thereby enhancing the overall customer experience.

Leveraging our proprietary domain data and extensive business scenarios, we have established a Human-AI collaborative model to drive improvements in customer experience and agent productivity. For instance, we utilize intelligent marketing assistants to enhance front-end lead acquisition efficiency, while empowering managers with digital tools to accurately identify high-intent customers, thereby accelerating conversion and transaction closure.

***New home transaction services***

In 2025, GTV from our new home transaction services decreased by 8.2% year-over-year, outperforming the market amidst overall industry pressure. Net revenues from new home transaction services were RMB30.6 billion, down 9.1% year-over-year. Driven by continuous improvements in operating efficiency, the contribution margin for new home transaction services increased by 0.2 percentage point year-over-year to 25.0% for the full year, and further expanded to 28.3% in the fourth quarter.

Regarding project management and developer collaborations, while steadily expanding our coverage of collaborative projects, we focused on optimizing our project mix by concentrating our sales resources on high-quality developments. This strategy allows us to deliver more deterministic sales value to our partners. Furthermore, by leveraging the multi-dimensional data analytics of our AI assistant, "Qianji," we have enhanced the professionalism of our business development teams in negotiations with developers, thereby strengthening partnership stickiness.

Regarding lead conversion, we continued to deepen the synergy with our existing home and rental segments, identifying and activating the dormant leads within our platform ecosystem. Furthermore, we empowered agents with "Qianzhi," our AI agent, to achieve more efficient matching between new home projects and customer needs through demand analysis and AI-assisted property presentations.

Meanwhile, we continued to strengthen our cash collection management and risk control. Consequently, the accounts receivable turnover days for new home transactions in the fourth quarter of 2025 were shortened to 44 days from 54 days in the previous quarter.

***Home renovation and furnishing services***

In 2025, we continued to optimize the business structure of our home renovation and furnishing services and proactively managed our operating tempo, with a strategic focus on enhancing operating quality, risk management, and underlying service capabilities. In 2025, net revenues for this segment reached RMB15.4 billion, representing a year-over-year increase of 4.4%. By optimizing our core cost structures, we achieved a notable improvement in profitability: the contribution margin expanded from 30.7% in 2024 to 31.4% in 2025. Consequently, operating losses for the full year narrowed substantially.

We strive to build professional service capabilities that can be replicated at scale within our home renovation and furnishing services. On the product and design front, we have developed a modular product system. By leveraging modular showrooms and intelligent BIM design tools, as well as a more precise lead distribution mechanism, we have improved designer efficiency. On the supply chain and delivery fronts, we significantly increased the proportion of centralized procurement. Furthermore, by focusing on enhancing the productivity of our top-tier project managers, we achieved notable efficiency gains across both our supply chain and project managers.

While elevating our own operating quality, we have also broadly implemented the "Home Renovation Funds Escrow" model, redefining the benchmarks for customer service in the home renovation industry and leading the transition toward standardized industry practices.

***Home rental services***

In 2025, our home rental services achieved scale expansion alongside enhanced profitability. As of the end of 2025, the number of home units under management exceeded 700,000, representing a 62% year-over-year increase. In 2025, net revenues for this segment reached RMB21.9 billion, up 52.8% year-over-year. Driven by the strategic transition of our *Carefree Rent* product toward lower-risk models and operational refinement, the contribution margin for home rental services increased by 3.6 percentage points year-over-year to 8.6%, achieving full-year profitability at the operating level.

We continued to drive the product model under our *Carefree Rent* business toward an asset-light transition, effectively mitigating risks associated with market volatility. In terms of improving per-unit economics, our specialized division of labor has enhanced the productivity of property managers and optimized personnel costs. Concurrently, we have progressively integrated AI technology across the entire workflows of *Carefree Rent* – from property acquisition and leasing to inventory management and operational decision-making – providing a robust foundation for scalable expansion and sustainable profitability of the business.

In tandem, we continued to refine our rental safety governance systems by strengthening inspections and management of key risk scenarios. These efforts helped support stable operations amidst business expansion.

***Beihaojia***

In 2025, *Beihaojia* advanced the development of the C2M (Customer to Manufacturer) capabilities. By providing developers with data-driven decision support – including unit mix optimization and price forecasting – across stages such as land acquisition assessment, product positioning, pricing, and marketing in new home developments, we implemented our capabilities across multiple collaborative projects.

**Business Outlook**

In 2026, we will continue to focus on customer value by evolving our housing transaction services from "transaction-driven" into "decision-support" services. For our home renovation and furnishing and home rental businesses, we strive to further enhance profitability and operating models. By deepening the synergy between AI and service providers, and leveraging technology to improve platform resource allocation, we will continue to strengthen our professional service capabilities, as well as overall organizational and operational efficiency. Meanwhile, we will maintain prudent capital allocation and strict operating discipline to consistently improve the quality of our operations and cash flow, driving steady and sustainable growth for our business.

Through service model restructuring, resource allocation optimization, and deep organizational synergy, we are building systematic service capabilities centered around the residential life cycle of our customers. By enhancing the efficiency of resource conversion, we aim to continuously optimize the residential service experience, responding to the evolution of consumer demands with professional value.

AI technology will become a key variable in reshaping our core competitiveness, evolving from a standalone productivity tool into a profound "human-machine collaborative" capability. Through technological means, we aim to achieve the standardized packaging and scalable delivery of professional service capabilities. This approach will amplify the value of high-performing service providers while effectively broadening the platform's capability boundaries, driving operating efficiency growth through technological dividends.

We firmly believe that the professional service capabilities and quality foundations established in 2025 provide the endogenous momentum for future sustainable growth. By continuously optimizing our capital allocation structure and elevating our operating governance, we remain committed to creating and enhancing long-term value for our shareholders.

**SHAREHOLDER RETURNS**

We continued to increase shareholder returns and optimize capital allocation to enhance capital operation efficiency. In 2025, we have in aggregate repurchased shares with a total consideration of approximately US$921.1 million under our Share Repurchase Program (as defined below). The total number of American depositary shares (the "**ADSs**") repurchased in 2025 represented approximately 4.1% of our total issued shares as of the end of 2024. Since the launch of the Share Repurchase Program in September 2022 through the end of 2025, we have cumulatively repurchased ADSs with a total consideration of approximately US$2,546.5 million, representing approximately 12.6% of our total issued shares prior to the launch of the program. These repurchased Class A ordinary shares, represented by ADSs, have been fully cancelled.

Furthermore, we are pleased to declare a final dividend, with an expected total payout of approximately US$0.3 billion.

Altogether, our total shareholder return for 2025 reached approximately US$1.2 billion, representing a year-over-year increase of over 9%. With our substantial cash reserves and robust financial management capabilities, we aim to create and continuously enhance long-term value for our shareholders through our proactive shareholder return initiatives.

**ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL AND GOVERNANCE (ESG)**

Our ESG rating by Morgan Stanley Capital International was upgraded from "A" to "AA" in October 2025, marking our third consecutive rating upgrade since 2023. This achievement underscores Beike's unwavering commitment to advancing ESG practices within the industry.

In 2025, Beike actively advanced the digitalization of carbon management by establishing an integrated carbon management platform. This system consolidates core operational data, including electricity and water consumption, business travel mileage, and hotel stays, while progressively integrating supplier carbon footprint data to build a comprehensive information management system for carbon emissions. Simultaneously, the Company has established robust processes for identifying, assessing, prioritizing, and monitoring climate-related risks and opportunities, fully integrating these into our overall risk management framework. Regarding greenhouse gas emission control, Beike has set clear reduction targets: achieving carbon neutrality in our own operations (Scope 1 and 2) no later than 2030, and reducing Scope 3 value chain carbon emission intensity by 30% by 2030 compared to the 2024 baseline.

**MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS**

**Results of Operation**

***Net revenues***

**Net revenues** were RMB94.6 billion in 2025, compared to RMB93.5 billion in 2024, primarily attributable to the increase of net revenues from home rental services and home renovation and furnishing, which was partially offset by the decrease of net revenues from new home and existing home transaction services.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Net revenues from existing home transaction services** decreased by 11.3% to RMB25.0 billion
 in 2025 from RMB28.2 billion in 2024. GTV of existing home transactions decreased by 4.2%
 to RMB2,151.5 billion in 2025 from RMB2,246.5 billion in 2024. The steeper decline in net
 revenues relative to GTV in existing home transaction services was primarily attributable
 to a higher contribution from GTV of existing home transaction services served by connected
 agents on the Company's platform, for which revenue is recorded on a net basis from
 platform service, franchise service and other value-added services, while for GTV served
 by *Lianjia* brand, the revenue is recorded on a gross commission revenue basis.

Among that, **(i) commission revenue** decreased by 13.5% to RMB20.0 billion in 2025, from RMB23.1 billion in 2024, primarily due to the decreased GTV of existing home transactions served by *Lianjia* stores of 12.7% to RMB802.1 billion in 2025 from RMB918.5 billion in 2024; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(ii) revenues derived from platform service, franchise service and other value-added services**, which are mostly charged to connected stores and agents on the Company's platform were RMB5.0 billion in 2025, relatively stable compared with RMB5.1 billion in 2024, while GTV of existing home transactions served by connected agents on the Company's platform increased by 1.6% to RMB1,349.4 billion in 2025 from RMB1,328.0 billion in 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Net revenues from new home transaction services** decreased by 9.1% to RMB30.6 billion in 2025
 from RMB33.7 billion in 2024, primarily due to the decrease of GTV of new home transactions
 of 8.2% to RMB890.9 billion in 2025 from RMB970.0 billion in 2024. Of these, the GTV of new
 home transactions facilitated on *Beike* platform through connected agents, dedicated
 sales team with the expertise in new home transaction services and other sales channels decreased
 by 7.0% to RMB729.2 billion in 2025 from RMB784.4 billion in 2024, and the GTV of new home
 transactions served by *Lianjia* brand decreased by 12.9% to RMB161.6 billion in 2025
 from RMB185.6 billion in 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Net revenues from home renovation and furnishing** increased by 4.4% to RMB15.4 billion in
 2025 from RMB14.8 billion in 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Net revenues from home rental services** increased by 52.8% to RMB21.9 billion in 2025 from
 RMB14.3 billion in 2024, primarily attributable to the increase in the number of rental units
 under the *Carefree Rent* model, partially offset by a shift in revenue recognition
 mix resulting from an increasing proportion of the new product offering within the *Carefree Rent*. Under the new model, the homeowners retain control over and beneficial interest
 in the properties, while the Company provides leasing agency services and lease term management
 services to both homeowners and tenants. Accordingly, under the new model, revenue is recognized
 based on net service fees derived from two sources: (1) commissions earned for facilitating
 the signing of lease agreements between homeowners and tenants; and (2) fees for lease
 term management services rendered throughout the lease period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Net revenues from emerging and other services** were RMB1.6 billion in 2025, compared to RMB2.5
 billion in 2024.

***Cost of revenues***

**Total cost of revenues** increased by 5.5% to RMB74.4 billion in 2025 from RMB70.5 billion in 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Commission – split.** The Company's cost of revenues for commissions to connected agents
 and other sales channels decreased by 8.3% to RMB20.9 billion in 2025, from RMB22.8 billion
 in 2024, primarily due to the decrease in GTV of new home transactions facilitated through
 connected agents and other sales channels.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Commission and compensation – internal.** The Company's cost of revenues for internal
 commission and compensation decreased by 6.6% to RMB17.7 billion in 2025 from RMB18.9 billion
 in 2024, primarily due to the decrease in commission of home transaction services for *Lianjia* agents, resulting from the decreased GTV of home transactions they served by.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Cost of home renovation and furnishing.** The Company's cost of revenues for home renovation
 and furnishing increased by 3.4% to RMB10.6 billion in 2025 from RMB10.2 billion in 2024,
 which was in line with the growth of net revenues from home renovation and furnishing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Cost of home rental services.** The Company's cost of revenues for home rental services
 which mainly consists of variable costs, increased by 47.0% to RMB20.0 billion in 2025 from
 RMB13.6 billion in 2024, primarily attributable to the growth of net revenues from home rental
 services, partially offset by an improved contribution margin resulting from an increasing
 proportion of the new product offering with a higher contribution margin under the *Carefree Rent* business, as well as enhanced operating efficiency.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Cost related to stores.** The Company's cost related to stores was RMB2.9 billion in 2025,
 relatively flat compared with RMB2.9 billion in 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Other costs.** The Company's other costs were RMB2.4 billion in 2025, compared with RMB2.1
 billion in 2024, primarily attributable to the increase in the direct technical infrastructure
 costs such as cloud storage costs.

***Contribution Margin***

We also review contribution margin to measure segment profitability. The table below sets forth the contribution margin for each of our business lines for the periods indicated.

We define contribution for each service line as the revenue less variable costs directly attributable to the reportable segment. For existing home and new home transaction services, variable costs including direct compensation to our internal agents and sales professionals, split commission to connected agents and other sales channels for such services. For home renovation and furnishing services, variable costs including material costs and compensation costs to renovation workers who are the Group's employees or contractors. For home rental services, variable costs including property leasing costs paid to property owners according to corresponding lease contracts and direct compensation to sales professionals.

The following table presents the calculation to arrive at contribution from net revenues, for each of the periods indicated:

Contribution margin demonstrates the margin that we generate after costs directly attributable to the respective revenue streams, including existing home transaction services, new home transaction services, home renovation and furnishing, home rental services, and emerging and other services. The costs and expenses related to the platform infrastructure building and enhancement, including cost related to our Lianjia stores and the development cost of our technological platform, which are not directly attributable to the respective revenue streams, are not deducted from revenue when calculating contribution.

The contribution margin for existing home transaction services decreased from 43.2% in 2024 to 39.3% in 2025, primarily attributable to a higher fixed compensation costs for *Lianjia* agents as percentage of net revenues from existing home transaction services, mainly driven by the increase in weighted average number of *Lianjia* agents and improved benefits for them.

The contribution margin for new home transaction services was 25.0% in 2025, relatively stable compared with 24.8% in 2024.

The contribution margin for home renovation and furnishing increased to 31.4% in 2025 from 30.7% in 2024, primarily attributable to enhanced supply chain capabilities.

The contribution margin for home rental business increased to 8.6% in 2025 from 5.0% in 2024, primarily attributable to an increasing proportion of the new product offering with a higher contribution margin under the *Carefree Rent* business, as well as enhanced operational efficiency.

The contribution margin for our emerging and other services was 75.9% in 2025, compared with 86.0% in 2024.

***Gross Profit***

**Gross profit** decreased by 11.9% to RMB20.2 billion in 2025 from RMB22.9 billion in 2024. Gross margin decreased to 21.4% in 2025 from 24.6% in 2024, primarily due to a) reduced contribution of net revenues from existing home and new home transaction services, which historically carried higher contribution margins than the overall gross margin and b) a drop in contribution margin of existing home transaction services, which was primarily due to the increase in fixed compensation costs for *Lianjia* agents. The decline in gross margin was partially offset by the increased contribution margin of home rental services.

***Income from Operations***

**Total operating expenses** decreased by 5.6% to RMB18.1 billion in 2025 from RMB19.2 billion in 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **General and administrative expenses** decreased by 9.9% to RMB8.1 billion in 2025, from RMB9.0
 billion in 2024, primarily due to the decrease in share-based compensation expenses and provision
 for credit losses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Sales and marketing expenses** decreased by 5.8% to RMB7.3 billion in 2025 from RMB7.8 billion
 in 2024, primarily due to the Company's cost optimization initiatives, including lower
 personnel costs as well as reduced advertising and promotion expenses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Research and development expenses** increased by 13.0% to RMB2.6 billion in 2025 from RMB2.3 billion
 in 2024, primarily due to the increased personnel costs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Impairment of goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets** was RMB116 million in 2025,
 compared to RMB152 million in 2024, primarily attributable to the impairment of goodwill
 triggered by the market fluctuation and its impact on our operations.

**Income from operations** was RMB2,111 million in 2025, compared to RMB3,765 million in 2024. **Operating margin** was 2.2% in 2025, compared to 4.0% in 2024, primarily due to a lower gross margin partially offset by the improved operating leverage in 2025, compared to 2024.

***Income tax expense***

We recorded an income tax expense of RMB1,686 million in 2025, compared to RMB2,792 million in 2024.

***Net income***

**Net income** was RMB2,991 million in 2025, compared to RMB4,078 million in 2024.

**Discussion of Key Balance Sheet Items**

***Cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short-term investments***

Cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short-term investments constitute our most liquid assets. Short-term investments include bank time deposits and investments in wealth management products issued by financial institutions. These products normally offer returns higher than bank deposits, maintain relatively low risk, and provide sufficient liquidity as they are redeemable upon short notice. We therefore consider such wealth management products part of our cash management program.

The total amount of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments decreased from RMB61.6 billion as of December 31, 2024 to RMB55.5 billion as of December 31, 2025, mainly used in financing activities in 2025, partially offset by the cash provided by investing activities.

***Accounts receivable, net of allowance for credit losses***

A significant portion of accounts receivable was due from real estate developers for our new home transaction services. Our accounts receivable and contract assets, net of allowance for credit losses decreased from RMB5.5 billion as of December 31, 2024 to RMB3.9 billion as of December 31, 2025, primarily due to the decline of net revenues from new home transaction services.

We serve real estate developers in our new home transaction services and grant them credit terms relatively longer compared to individual and small brokerage firm clients in accordance with the market practice. As such, we may face risks related to the collection of our accounts receivable from real estate developers. In light of the liquidity concerns faced by certain real estate developers started from 2021, we have been implementing various prudent measures such as "Commission in Advance" model to ensure effective risk control and timely collection of accounts receivable. Our collection of accounts receivable for new home transaction services amounted to RMB33.4 billion in 2024 and RMB34.6 billion in 2025, compared to the net revenue from new home transaction services of RMB33.7 billion in 2024 and RMB30.6 billion in 2025. And we maintained our accounts receivable turnover days for new home transaction services at a relatively low level at 56 days in 2025, compared with 52 days in 2024. The accounts receivable turnover days for existing home transaction services, where our clients are individual housing customers and brokerage firms on our platform, were 7 days in 2024 and 7 days in 2025. We plan to continue to prudently manage our accounts receivable, in particular with respect to new home transaction services.

Accounts receivable turnover days for a given period are equal to average balances of accounts receivable at the beginning and the end of the period divided by total net revenues during the period and multiplied by the number of days during the period.

***Intangible assets, net***

Our intangible assets net of accumulated amortization and impairment amounted to RMB858 million and RMB723 million as of December 31, 2024 and 2025, respectively. The decrease in 2025 was primarily due to the amortization of the intangible assets.

***Long-term investments, net***

Our long-term investments amounted to RMB23.8 billion and RMB20.1 billion as of December 31, 2024 and 2025, respectively. The decrease from December 31, 2024 to December 31, 2025 was mainly due to a decrease in long-term time deposits and available-for-sale debt investments.

***Goodwill***

Our goodwill was RMB4,777 million and RMB4,660 million as of December 31, 2024 and 2025, respectively. The decrease in 2025 was primarily due to the impairment of the goodwill related to reporting units within the existing home transaction services segment and new home transaction services segment in certain cities as a result of changes in local market conditions.

***Prepayments, receivables and other assets***

The following table set forth the breakdown of this account as of the dates indicated.

Deposits paid to real estate developers refer to the earnest deposits paid by the Group to developers for new home transaction service contracts, and will be collected back after we meet our service commitment. We implement stringent selection process for the real estate projects for which we provide marketing services and will only agree to make earnest deposits for those we are confident in meeting our sales commitment.

***Accounts payable***

The accounts payable decreased from RMB9,493 million as of December 31, 2024 to RMB6,052 million as of December 31, 2025, which was in line with the revenues from new home transaction services.

***Short-term borrowings***

As of December 31, 2024 and 2025, our short-term borrowings were RMB288 million and RMB208 million, respectively. The total balance of short-term loans as of December 31, 2025 mainly includes one bank loan in May 2025 with interest at one-year LPR (Loan Prime Rate) minus 89 basis points, as well as two bank loans in January and May 2025 with fixed loan interest rates of 2.48% and 2.38%, respectively.

To date, we have financed our operating and investing activities through cash flows from operations and cash provided by historical equity and debt financing activities. As of December 31, 2024 and 2025, our cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments were RMB61.6 billion and RMB55.5 billion, respectively. Our cash and cash equivalents primarily consist of cash on hand, demand deposits and highly liquid investments placed with banks or other financial institutions with original maturities of less than three months. Our restricted cash are primarily pledged for bank borrowings, and escrow payments collected from the property buyers on behalf of and payable to the property sellers.

We believe that our cash balance and expected net cash inflows will be sufficient to meet our current and anticipated working capital requirements and capital expenditures for an extended period of time. We may, however, need additional cash resources in the future if we experience changes in business conditions or other developments. We may also need additional cash resources in the future if we identify and wish to pursue opportunities for investment, acquisition, capital expenditure or similar actions.

Substantially all of our revenues have been, and we expect they are likely to continue to be, denominated in Renminbi. Under the existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, including profit distributions, interest payments and trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions, can be made in foreign currencies without prior the State Administration of Foreign Exchange ("**SAFE**") approval as long as certain routine procedural requirements are fulfilled. Therefore, our PRC subsidiaries are allowed to pay dividends in foreign currencies to us without prior SAFE approval by following certain routine procedural requirements. However, current PRC regulations permit our PRC subsidiaries to pay dividends to us only out of their accumulated profits, if any, determined in accordance with Chinese accounting standards and regulations. Our PRC subsidiaries are required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profits after making up previous years' accumulated losses each year, if any, to fund certain reserve funds until the total amount set aside reaches 50% of its registered capital. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends. Historically, our PRC subsidiaries have not paid dividends to us, and they will not be able to pay dividends until they generate accumulated profits. Furthermore, capital account transactions, which include foreign direct investment and loans, must be approved by and/or registered with SAFE, its local branches and certain local banks.

As a Cayman Islands exempted company and offshore holding company, we are permitted under PRC laws and regulations to provide funding to our PRC subsidiaries only through loans or capital contributions, subject to the approval or registration of government authorities and limits on the amount of capital contributions and loans. This may delay us from using the proceeds from our initial public offering in July 2020 and our ADSs offering in November 2020 to make loans or capital contributions to our PRC subsidiaries.

***Operating activities***

Net cash used in operating activities in 2025 was RMB376 million. The difference between net cash used in operating activities and net income of RMB2,991 million in 2025 was the result of adding back RMB3,114 million for adjustments of non-cash items, adding back RMB9 million for dividend received from equity method investments and RMB210 million of investment and interest income received from wealth management products and time deposits, as well as removing RMB6,700 million used in working capital.

The adjustment of non-cash items primarily consisted of RMB1,905 million in share-based compensation expenses, RMB934 million in depreciation expenses, and RMB138 million in amortization of intangible assets.

The additional cash used in working capital was the result of: (i) a RMB3,344 million decrease in accounts payable, (ii) a RMB1,910 million decrease in employee compensation and welfare payable, (iii) a RMB1,006 million decrease in prepayments, receivables and other assets, (iv) a RMB4,729 million decrease in lease liabilities, and (v) a RMB1,251 million decrease in inventories, partially offset by a RMB4,213 million increase in right-of-use assets and a RMB1,483 million increase in accounts receivable and contract assets.

Net cash generated from operating activities in 2024 was RMB9.4 billion. The difference between net cash generated from operating activities and net income of RMB4,078 million in 2024 was the result of adding back RMB3,681 million for adjustments of non-cash items, adding back RMB16 million for dividend received from equity method investments and removing RMB253 million of investment and interest income, which are by nature investing activities, and adding RMB1,925 million released from working capital.

The adjustment of non-cash items primarily consisted of RMB2,726 million in share-based compensation expenses, RMB744 million in depreciation expenses, RMB269 million in amortization of intangible assets, and RMB313 million in fair value changes in investments.

The additional cash released from working capital was the result of a RMB2,457 million increase in accounts payable, a RMB4,674 million increase in lease liabilities, a RMB1,387 million increase in contract liabilities, and a RMB1,093 million increase in accrued expenses and other current liabilities, partially offset by a RMB5,599 million increase in right-of-use assets, a RMB2,410 million increase in accounts receivable and contract assets, and a RMB270 million increase in prepayments, receivables and other assets.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) other obligations and commitments.

The following table sets forth other contractual obligations as of December 31, 2025:

---

Except for commitments and obligations as disclosed above and financial guarantees as discussed in section below, we did not have any other long-term obligations or material guarantees as of December 31, 2025.

***Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements***

We provide financial guarantees through our subsidiaries for loans that we facilitate for certain financial partners or individual lenders. We are obligated to compensate the lenders for the principal and interest payment in the event of the borrowers' default. Therefore, we effectively provide guarantees to lenders against the credit risk.

Other than the above, we have not entered into any other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties. We have not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to our shares and classified as shareholder's equity or that are not reflected in our consolidated financial statements. Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity. We do not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us or engages in leasing, hedging or product development services with us.

**Significant Investment and Material Acquisition and Disposal**

We did not have any significant investment or material acquisition or disposal of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures during the Reporting Period.

**Pledge of Assets**

As of December 31, 2025, we pledged land use rights located in Chengdu, Shanghai and Hangzhou with carrying values of RMB2,077 million for certain revolving credit facilities. Other than these land use rights, we have no other material asset pledges.

**Future Plans for Material Investments or Capital Assets**

We did not have detailed future plans for significant investments or capital assets as of December 31, 2025.

**Gearing Ratio**

As of December 31, 2025, our gearing ratio (i.e., total liabilities divided by total assets, in percentage) was 43.0% (as of December 31, 2024: 46.3%).

**Foreign Exchange Risk**

Substantially all of our revenues and expenses are denominated in RMB. We do not believe that we currently have any significant direct foreign exchange risk. Although our exposure to foreign exchange risks should be limited in general, the value of your investment will be affected by the exchange rate between U.S. dollar and Renminbi.

Historically, the Renminbi has fluctuated against the U.S. dollars at times significantly and unpredictably. The appreciation of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollars was approximately 4.2% in the year ended December 31, 2025. It is difficult to predict how market forces or PRC or U.S. government policy may impact the exchange rate between the Renminbi and the U.S. dollars in the future.

To the extent that we need to convert U.S. dollars into Renminbi for our operations, appreciation of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar would have an adverse effect on the Renminbi amounts we receive from the conversion. Conversely, if we decide to convert Renminbi into U.S. dollars for the purpose of making payments for dividends on our Class A ordinary shares or ADSs or for other business purposes, appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the Renminbi would have a negative effect on the U.S. dollar amounts available to us.

**Interest Rate Risk**

Our exposure to interest rate risk primarily relates to the interest income generated by excess cash and interest expense related to loans. We held interest-bearing time deposits and wealth management products, which included in short-term and long-term investments. As of December 31, 2025, our bank loans were primarily denominated in RMB, among which approximately RMB86.0 million were at fixed interest rates, and approximately RMB304.6 million were at floating interest rates. We have not been exposed to material risks due to changes in market interest rates, and we have not used any derivative financial instruments to manage our interest risk exposure.

**Employees and Remuneration**

As of December 31, 2025, we had a total of 119,245 employees. The following table sets forth the total number of employees categorized by function as of December 31, 2025:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
|  | **Number of <br> employees** |
| **Function** | |
| Agents and supporting staff | 95918 |
| Platform operations | 6217 |
| Research and development | 2025 |
| Business development, sales and marketing | 5439 |
| Administration and management | 9646 |
| **Total** | **119245** |

---

We believe that we offer our employees competitive compensation packages and an environment that encourages self-development and, as a result, have generally been able to attract and retain qualified personnel and maintain a stable core management team.

As required by regulations in China, we participate in various employee social security plans that are organized by municipal and provincial governments, including pension, unemployment insurance, childbirth insurance, work-related injury insurance, medical insurance and housing provident fund. In addition to the required social security plans, we also offer bonuses to employees to encourage higher performance quality. Bonuses are generally discretionary and based in part on employee performance and in part on the overall performance of our business. We have granted, and plan to continue to grant, share-based incentive awards to our employees in the future to incentivize their contributions to our growth and development.

**OTHER INFORMATION**

**Purchase, Sale and Redemption of the Company's Listed Securities**

As previously announced, the Company established a share repurchase program in August 2022 and upsized and extended it in August 2023 and August 2024, under which the Company may purchase up to US$3 billion of its Class A ordinary shares and/or ADSs until August 31, 2025 (the "**Existing Share Repurchase Program**"). On August 26, 2025, the board of directors of the Company (the "**Board**") approved modifications to the Existing Share Repurchase Program, pursuant to which the repurchase authorization has been further increased from US$3 billion to US$5 billion and extended until August 31, 2028 (the "**Extended Share Repurchase Program**," and together with the Existing Share Repurchase Program, the "**Share Repurchase Program**"). In the annual general meeting (the "**AGM**") held on June 27, 2025, the shareholders have approved to grant the Board a general unconditional mandate to purchase the Company's own Shares (the "**2025 Share Repurchase Mandate**") which covers the repurchases to be made under the Extended Share Repurchase Program until the conclusion of the next AGM of the Company. After the expiry of the 2025 Share Repurchase Mandate, the Company will further seek for general unconditional mandate for repurchase from the shareholders at each of the next three AGMs to be held in the forthcoming years to continue its share repurchase under the Extended Share Repurchase Program.

During the Reporting Period, the Company repurchased a total of 50,122,631 ADSs (representing 150,367,893 Class A ordinary shares) on the New York Stock Exchange (the "**NYSE**") at an aggregate consideration of US$921,095,548.40.

The Board considers that the Share Repurchase Program reflects the confidence of the Board and the management team in the current and long-term business outlook and growth of the Company. The Board considers that the Share Repurchase Program is in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders as a whole.

A total of 150,367,893 Class A ordinary shares represented by ADSs repurchased during the Reporting Period have been cancelled, including the 21,608,250 Class A ordinary shares represented by ADSs repurchased in November and December 2025 and cancelled in January 2026. Upon cancellation of the Class A ordinary shares converted from the ADSs repurchased, the weighted voting right ("**WVR**," as defined under the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the "**Listing Rules**")) beneficiaries of the Company simultaneously reduced their WVR in the Company proportionately by way of converting their Class B ordinary shares into Class A ordinary shares on a one-to-one ratio pursuant to Rule 8A.21 of the Listing Rules, such that the proportion of shares carrying WVR of the Company shall not be increased, pursuant to the requirements under Rules 8A.13 and 8A.15 of the Listing Rules. Accordingly, a total of 5,984,887 Class B ordinary shares have been converted into Class A ordinary shares on a one-to-one ratio, including (i) 4,173,896 Class B ordinary shares converted by Mr. Yongdong Peng, through a discretionary trust established by him (as the settlor), and (ii) 1,810,991 Class B ordinary shares converted by Mr. Yigang Shan, through a discretionary trust established by him (as the settlor). As a result of the cancellation of the Class A ordinary shares represented by ADSs repurchased during the Reporting Period and the conversion of 5,984,887 Class B ordinary shares into Class A ordinary shares on a one-to-one ratio, the number of Class A ordinary shares in issue was reduced by 144,383,006.

Save as disclosed above, neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries purchased, sold or redeemed any of the Company's listed securities during the Reporting Period.

**Compliance with the Corporate Governance Code**

The Company's corporate governance practices are based on the principles and code provisions set forth in the Corporate Governance Code (the "**CG Code**") contained in Appendix C1 to the Listing Rules.

Pursuant to Code Provision C.2.1 of part 2 of the CG Code, companies listed on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the "**Hong Kong Stock Exchange**") are expected to comply with, but may choose to deviate from the requirement that the responsibilities between the chairman and the chief executive officer should be separate and should not be performed by the same individual. The Company does not have a separate chairman and chief executive officer and Mr. Yongdong Peng currently performs these two roles. The Board believes that vesting the roles of both chairman and chief executive officer in the same person has the benefit of ensuring consistent leadership within the Group and enables more effective and efficient overall strategic planning for the Group.

All major decisions are made in consultation with members of the Board, including the relevant Board committees, and three independent non-executive directors. The directors of the Company (the "**Directors**") are encouraged to participate actively in all Board and committee meetings of which they are members, and the chairman ensures that all issues raised are properly briefed at the Board meetings. The Board considers that the balance of power and authority for the present arrangement will not be impaired and this structure will enable the Company to make and implement decisions promptly and effectively.

Other than the above, during the Reporting Period and up to the date of this announcement, the Company has complied with all applicable principles and code provisions of the CG Code.

**Compliance with the Model Code for Securities Transactions**

The Company has adopted the Second Amended and Restated Statement of Policies Governing Material Non-Public Information and the Prevention of Insider Trading (the "**Company's Code**"), with terms no less exacting than the Model Code for Securities Transactions by Directors of Listed Issuers (the "**Model Code**") as set out in Appendix C3 to the Listing Rules, as its own securities dealing code to regulate all dealings by the Directors and relevant employees of the Company of securities in the Company and other matters covered by the Company's Code.

Having made specific enquiries to all of the Directors, all confirmed that they have fully complied with all relevant requirements set out in the Model Code and the Company's Code during the Reporting Period and up to the date of this announcement.

**Important Events after the Reporting Period**

Save as disclosed in this announcement, no other important events affecting the Group occurred since the end of the Reporting Period and up to the date of this announcement.

**Auditor's Procedures Performed on this Results Announcement**

The unaudited financial information disclosed in this announcement is preliminary. The audit of the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 is still in progress up to date. The figures in respect of the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, unaudited condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income, unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows and the related notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2025 as set out in this results announcement have been agreed by the Company's auditor, PricewaterhouseCoopers, to the amounts set out in the Company's draft consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. The work performed by PricewaterhouseCoopers in this respect did not constitute an assurance engagement and consequently no opinion or assurance conclusion has been expressed by PricewaterhouseCoopers on this results announcement.

Adjustments to the financial statements may be identified when the audit work is completed, which could result in significant differences between the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and this unaudited financial information.

**Review of Financial Statements by the Audit Committee**

The Company has established the audit committee of the Board (the "**Audit Committee**") in compliance with Rule 3.21 of the Listing Rules and the CG Code. The primary duties of the Audit Committee are, among other things, to review and supervise the financial reporting process and internal control systems of the Group, manage risk, oversee the internal audit function, and provide advice and comments to the Board. The Audit Committee comprises Ms. Xiaohong Chen (chairperson, being our independent non-executive Director with the appropriate professional qualifications or accounting or related financial management expertise), Mr. Hansong Zhu and Mr. Jun Wu, all of whom are independent non-executive Directors.

The Audit Committee has reviewed the unaudited annual results of the Group for the year ended December 31, 2025. The Audit Committee has also discussed matters with respect to the accounting policies and practices adopted by the Company and internal control with members of senior management and the external auditor of the Company, PricewaterhouseCoopers.

**Declaration of a Final Cash Dividend and Record Date**

The Board approved a final cash dividend (the "**Dividend**") of US$0.092 per ordinary share, or US$0.276 per ADS, to holders of ordinary shares and holders of ADSs of record as of the close of business on April 8, 2026, Beijing/Hong Kong Time and New York Time, respectively, payable in U.S. dollars. The aggregate amount of the Dividend to be paid will be approximately US$0.3 billion, which will be funded by cash surplus on the Company's balance sheet.

For holders of ordinary shares, in order to qualify for the Dividend, all valid documents for the transfer of shares accompanied by the relevant share certificates must be lodged for registration with the Company's Hong Kong share registrar, Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited, at Shops 1712-1716, 17th Floor, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen's Road East, Wanchai, Hong Kong no later than 4:30 p.m. on April 8, 2026 (Beijing/Hong Kong Time). Dividend to be paid to the Company's ADS holders through the depositary bank will be subject to the terms of the deposit agreement. The payment date is expected to be on or around April 21, 2026 for holders of ordinary shares, and on or around April 24, 2026 for holders of ADSs.

Under the Company's current dividend policy, the Board has discretion on whether to distribute dividends, subject to certain requirements of Cayman Islands law. In addition, our shareholders may by ordinary resolution declare a dividend, but no dividend may exceed the amount recommended by the Board. If we decide to pay dividends, the form, frequency and amount will be based upon our future operations and earnings, capital requirements and surplus, general financial condition, contractual restrictions and other factors that the Board may deem relevant.

**Publication of Final Results and Annual Report**

This announcement is published on the website of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange at <u>https://</u><u>www.hkexnews.hk</u> and on the website of the Company at <u>https://investors.ke.com</u>. The 2025 Annual Report containing all the information required by the Listing Rules will be made available on the websites of the Company and the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in due course.

**Appreciation**

The Company would like to express its appreciation to all the staff for their outstanding contribution towards the Company's development. The Board wishes to sincerely thank the management for their dedication and diligence, which are the key factors for the Company to continue its success in future. Also, the Company wishes to extend its gratitude for the continued support from its shareholders, customers and business partners. The Company will continue to deliver sustainable business development, so as to create more values for all its shareholders.

**Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

The Company uses adjusted income (loss) from operations, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) attributable to KE Holdings Inc.'s ordinary shareholders, adjusted operating margin, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income (loss) per ADS attributable to KE Holdings Inc.'s ordinary shareholders, each a non-GAAP financial measure, in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. Beike believes that these non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in the Company's business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of certain expenses that the Company includes in its net income (loss). Beike also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information about its results of operations, 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. A limitation of using these non-GAAP financial measures is that these non-GAAP financial measures exclude share-based compensation expenses that have been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense in the Company's business. The Group recognized fair value loss and impairment in relation to its investments in *Beihaojia* business. As such impairment does not represent a non-recurring item, it has not been excluded when calculating Non-GAAP financial measures.

The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to gross profit, net income (loss) or any other measure of performance or as an indicator of its operating performance. Investors are encouraged to review these non – GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. The non-GAAP financial measures 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 the Company's data. Beike encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure. **Adjusted income (loss) from operations** is defined as income (loss) from operations, excluding (i) share-based compensation expenses, (ii) amortization of intangible assets resulting from acquisitions and business cooperation agreement, and (iii) impairment of goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets. **Adjusted operating margin** is defined as adjusted income (loss) from operations as a percentage of net revenues. **Adjusted net income (loss)** is defined as net income (loss), excluding (i) share-based compensation expenses, (ii) amortization of intangible assets resulting from acquisitions and business cooperation agreement, (iii) changes in fair value from long term investments, loan receivables measured at fair value and contingent consideration, (iv) impairment of goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets, (v) impairment of investments, and (vi) tax effects of the above non-GAAP adjustments. **Adjusted net income (loss) attributable to KE Holdings Inc.'s ordinary shareholders** is defined as net income (loss) attributable to KE Holdings Inc.'s ordinary shareholders, excluding (i) share – based compensation expenses, (ii) amortization of intangible assets resulting from acquisitions and business cooperation agreement, (iii) changes in fair value from long term investments, loan receivables measured at fair value and contingent consideration, (iv) impairment of goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets, (v) impairment of investments, (vi) tax effects of the above non-GAAP adjustments, and (vii) effects of non-GAAP adjustments on net income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests shareholders. **Adjusted EBITDA** is defined as net income (loss), excluding (i) income tax expense (benefit), (ii) share-based compensation expenses, (iii) amortization of intangible assets, (iv) depreciation of property and equipment, (v) interest income, net, (vi) changes in fair value from long term investments, loan receivables measured at fair value and contingent consideration, (vii) impairment of goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets, and (viii) impairment of investments. **Adjusted net income (loss) per ADS attributable to KE Holdings Inc.'s ordinary shareholders** is defined as adjusted net income (loss) attributable to KE Holdings Inc.'s ordinary shareholders divided by weighted average number of ADS outstanding during the periods used in calculating adjusted net income (loss) per ADS, basic and diluted.

For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned "**Unaudited Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results**" set forth at the end of this announcement.

In May 2022, the Company has completed its listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange by way of introduction.

**2.** **BASIS OF PREPARATION** 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("**U.S. GAAP**") for annual financial information and the disclosure requirements of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the HKEX, as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time (the "**HK Listing Rules**"). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted consistent with Article 10 of Regulation S-X.

**3.** **SEGMENT INFORMATION** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(a)** **Description of segments** 

The Group's organizational structure is based on a number of factors that the chief operating decision maker (the "**CODM**") uses to evaluate, view and run its business operations which include, but are not limited to, customer base, homogeneity of services and technology. The Group's operating segments are based on this organizational structure and information reviewed by the Group's CODM to evaluate the operating segment results.

The Group now operates its businesses in five segments: existing home transaction services, new home transaction services, home renovation and furnishing, home rental services, and emerging and other services. The following summary describes the operations in each of the Group's reportable segment:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Existing home transaction services: The
 existing home transaction segment provides services in existing home market include i) agency
 services to sales or leases of existing homes, either through acting as the principal agent
 or a participating agent in collaboration with the principal agents; ii) platform and franchise
 services to brokerage firms on *Beike* platform who provide agency services in existing
 home market; iii) Other transaction services, such as transaction closing service through
 the Group's transaction center.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) New home transaction services: The new
 home transaction business segment provides new home transaction services in new home market.
 New home transaction services refer to marketing services provided to real estate developers
 to facilitate sales of new properties developed by the real estate developers to property
 buyers. The Group signs the new home transaction services contracts with the sales companies
 of the developers and then mobilizes all agents registered with the platform to fulfil such
 contracts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Home renovation and furnishing: The home
 renovation and furnishing business segment provides a one-stop solution to give housing customers
 access to a comprehensive range of home renovation and furnishing, ranging from interior
 design, renovation, re-modeling, furnishing, supplies, to after-sales maintenance and repair.

(All amounts in thousands, except for share and per share data)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) Home rental services: The home rental business provides rental property management and operation services with respect to dispersed
and centralized properties, and other rental-related services including monetization of platform traffic and online rental management
services.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) Emerging and other services: Emerging and other services include financial service business and other newly developed businesses.

The Group discloses segment contribution as its measure of segment performance, reconciled to income (loss) from operations. The Group defines contribution for each service line as the revenue less variable costs directly attributable to the reportable segment. For existing home and new home transaction services, variable costs include direct compensation to our internal agents and sales professionals, split commission to connected agents and other sales channels for such services. For home renovation and furnishing services, variable costs include material costs and compensation costs to renovation workers who are the Group's employees or contractors. For home rental services, variable costs include property leasing costs paid to property owners according to corresponding lease contracts and direct compensation to sales professionals.

The Group's CODM reviews segment contribution to evaluate performance and allocate resources, predominately in the budgeting, planning, and forecasting processes. For segment contribution, the Group's CODM reviews the month-over-month and quarter-over-quarter change in contribution, sequential change in contribution, and change in contribution from internal forecasts/budgets. Expense information is provided to and reviewed by the CODM on a consolidated basis to evaluate cost efficiency and company level performance.

**Notes:**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Preferred shares

Under U.S. GAAP, the Company classified the convertible redeemable preferred shares issued before its initial public offering and listing on the NYSE (the "**Preferred Shares**") as mezzanine equity in the consolidated balance sheets because they were redeemable at the holders' option upon the occurrence of certain deemed liquidation events and certain events outside of the Company's control. The Preferred Shares are recorded initially at fair value, net of issuance costs. The Company recognized accretion to the respective redemption value of the Preferred Shares over the period starting from issuance date to the date of conversion into ordinary shares. The conversion of Preferred Share is accounted for using the book value method, which prohibits recognition of any gain or loss in profit or loss. The entire carrying amount of the Preferred Shares is reclassified directly to permanent equity accounts: common stock and additional paid-in capital from conversion.

Under IFRS, certain redemption triggering events of the Preferred Shares are outside of the Company's control. In addition, the holders of the Preferred Shares are entitled to convert the Preferred Shares into a variable number of the Company's ordinary shares upon occurrence of certain events. Accordingly, the Preferred Shares are regarded as a hybrid instruments consisting of a host debt instrument and a conversion option as a derivative. The Company designated the entire Preferred Shares as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss such that the Preferred Shares are initially recognized at fair value, with subsequent fair value changes recorded in profit or loss while changes in the fair value due to own credit risk of Preferred Shares shall be presented in other comprehensive income separately. Upon conversion, financial liabilities are derecognized from the balance sheet, and equity is recognized based on the fair value. For changes in fair value attributable to the entity's own credit risk that were previously recognized in other comprehensive income, the accumulated other comprehensive income ("**OCI**") balance is reclassified directly to retained earnings, with no reclassification to profit or loss.

(All amounts in thousands, except for share and per share data)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Provision for credit losses

1) Under U.S. GAAP, the Group has adopted ASC Topic 326 starting from January 1, 2020. For instruments in the scope of the general CECL model, lifetime expected credit losses are recorded upon initial recognition of the instrument as an allowance for loan losses. Under IFRS, the Group has adopted IFRS 9 starting from January 1, 2018. Upon initial recognition, only the portion of lifetime expected credit loss ("**ECL**") that results from default events that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date is recorded ("**stage 1**"). Lifetime expected credit losses are subsequently recorded only if there is a significant increase in the credit risk of the asset ("**stage 2**"). Once there is objective evidence of impairment ("**stage 3**"), lifetime ECL continues to be recognized, but interest revenue is calculated on the net carrying amount (that is, amortized cost net of the credit allowance). Accordingly, the reconciliation includes a difference in the credit losses for financing receivables between IFRS 9 and ASC 326.

2) Under U.S. GAAP, for guarantees that are within the scope of ASC 326-20, the expected credit losses are measured and accounted for without regard to the initial fair value of the guarantee. Therefore, as described in ASC 460, the Group should record both a guarantee obligation and an allowance for credit losses (calculated using the CECL impairment model) for financial guarantees in the scope of ASC 326. Under IFRS, according to IFRS 9, after initial recognition, the Group subsequently measures the financial guarantees at the higher of (1) the amount of the loss allowance and (2) the amount initially recognized less, when appropriate, the cumulative amount of income recognized in accordance with the principles of IFRS 15. Accordingly, the reconciliation includes a difference in financial guarantee to reduce the liabilities recorded.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Lease accounting

*1)* *Lessor accounting for intermediate party in the sublease transactions*

A lease is classified as a finance lease if it meets certain lease classification criteria, such as whether the lease term equals or exceeds 75% of the economic life of the lease asset. Under U.S. GAAP, when classifying a sublease, the asset analyzed under ASC 842 is the underlying asset. Under IFRS, the asset analyzed is the right-of-use asset from the head lease. Therefore, an intermediate lessor evaluates a sublease with reference to the right-of-use asset rather than the leased asset under IFRS16. Once the sublease is classified as a finance lease, the intermediate party de-recognises the right-of-use asset (to the extent that it is subject to the sublease) and recognises a lease receivable. Accordingly, the reconciliation includes a difference in the lessor accounting for sublease transactions between IFRS 16 and ASC 842.

*2)* *Lessee accounting*

Under U.S. GAAP, for operating leases, the amortization of the right-of-use assets and interest expense related to the lease liabilities are recorded together as lease expense to produce a straight-line recognition effect in the income statement. Operating lease expense is recorded in a single financial statement line item on a straight-line basis over the lease term, there is no amount recorded as interest expense, and the "interest" amount is used to accrete the lease liability and to amortize the right-of-use asset.

Under IFRS, lessees account for all leases like finance leases in ASC 842. The right-of-use asset is amortized to amortization expense on a straight-line basis, while the interest expense is recorded in connection with the lease liabilities on the basis that the lease liabilities are measured at amortized cost. Amortization and interest expense are required to be presented in separate line items by the lessee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Share-based compensation

*1)* *Awards with performance targets met after the service period*

Under U.S. GAAP, a performance target that may be met after the requisite service period is complete, such as the fulfilment of a qualified successful IPO, is a performance vesting condition. The fair value of the award should not incorporate the probability of a performance condition vesting, but rather should be recognized only if the performance condition is probable of being achieved. The cumulative share-based compensation expenses for the share options that have satisfied the service condition were recorded in August 2020. Under IFRS, a performance target that may be met after the requisite service period is a non-vesting condition and is reflected in the measurement of the grant date fair value of an award, and share-based compensation expenses for the share options were recognized during the requisite service period based on the service conditions. Thus, share-based compensation expenses were recorded earlier under IFRS than under U.S. GAAP.

*2)* *Attribution – awards with graded-vesting features*

For the options and RSUs granted to employees with service condition only, the share-based compensation expenses were recognized over the vesting period using straight-line method under U.S. GAAP. While under IFRS, the graded vesting method must be applied.

*3)* *Accounting for forfeitures of share-based awards*

Under U.S. GAAP, companies make an entity-wide accounting policy election to account for award forfeitures as they occur or by estimating expected forfeitures as compensation cost is recognized, and the Group has chosen to account for forfeitures when they occur. Under IFRS, a similar policy election won't be allowed, forfeitures must be estimated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) Issuance costs in relation to the IPO

Under U.S. GAAP, specific incremental issuance costs directly attributable to a proposed or actual offering of securities may be deferred and charged against the gross proceeds of the offering, shown in equity as a deduction from the proceeds.

Under IFRS, such issuance costs apply different criteria for capitalization when the listing involves both existing shares and a concurrent issuance of new shares of the Company in the capital market, and were allocated proportionately between the existing and new shares. As a result, the Group recorded issuance costs associated with the listing of existing shares in the profit or loss.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) Investments measured at fair value

Under U.S. GAAP, the investment without readily determinable fair values could elect an accounting policy choice. The Group elects the measurement alternative to record these equity investments without readily determinable fair values at cost, less impairment, and plus or minus subsequent adjustments for observable price changes.

Under IFRS, these investments were measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized through profit or loss. Fair value changes of these long-term investments were recognized in the profit or loss.
