Chaohui Chen, Director and Chief Executive Officer of UCLOUDLINK, noted, “We continued to demonstrate commercial resilience and business vitality in the third quarter of 2021 despite the ongoing impact of COVID-19, generating revenue of US$19.3 million, with a 7.4% increase from the third quarter of 2020. The increase in our total revenues is a strong indication that UCLOUDLINK is well-positioned to grow in the short-term due to our continuous efforts in expanding our platform centric business, and in the long term as we believe that international travel restrictions will be lifted in the future. With the gradual recovery of international travel and the growth of our local data connectivity business, we had an increase in revenue from our 1.0 and 2.0 businesses in the third quarter of 2021 compared to the second quarter of 2021 and we saw continuous business development through online and offline channels such as in US, China, Japan and Europe.”

Mr. Chen continued, “In June 2021, we launched a new technology solution, Hyperconn™, which facilitates UCLOUDLINK to provide better data connectivity and accelerates 5G Cloud era. We continue to utilize our innovative technology to introduce innovative products and services into the market. Our Hyperconn™ technology solution and products were delivered to various markets during the third quarter of 2021, and we have developed more innovative products and services which are in the pipeline and are expected to be released to the market soon. These new products will help accelerate the further development of our 2.0 business. During the third quarter of 2021, our new tablets equipped with Hyperconn™ and cloud SIM technology have been promoted in new industries such as education. Our strategy to expand our network and strengthen our collaborations with local partners through embedding our GlocalMe Inside (GMI), allows us to enter into new industries and expand our PaaS and SaaS ecosystem which require reliable and high-quality data connections, including emergency services, live broadcasting e-commerce, Walkie and Talkie, Industrial Wi-Fi Router and other IoT applications. Our Hyperconn™ technology solution and products have been distributed by our offline retail channels and e-commerce platforms. Our products have received positive feedback and are well recognized and valued by increasing users base, across a wide spectrum of industries. We brought innovative Hyperconn™ technology solution to various application scenarios. We believe that, with the development of technology amid the information era, people have shifted their focus from the basic availability of network connection to a better and high-quality connection, and we are dedicated to providing better connections for everyone.”

Yimeng Shi, Chief Financial Officer of UCLOUDLINK, noted, “We are beginning to see the benefits of a turnaround in travel restrictions internationally. Our uCloudlink 1.0 business revenue increased 6.2% in the third quarter of 2021, compared with the third quarter of 2020. Revenues from PaaS and SaaS services also increased on a year-on-year basis of 81.6% compared with the third quarter of 2020, demonstrating the continuous expansion of our platform centric uCloudlink 2.0 business. The Daily Active Terminals (DAT) of our uCloudlink 2.0 business in the third quarter of 2021 increased 8.5% compared with the second quarter of 2021. Further, our continuous development of new innovative technology services and products and platform centric business elevated our research and development expenses as a percentage of total expenses, excluding share-based compensation expenses and others, to around 29% during the third quarter.”

*Third Quarter 2021 Financial Results*

*Revenues*

Total Revenues were US$19.3 million, representing an increase of 7.4% from US$18.0 million in the same period of 2020.

· *Revenues from services* were US$10.5 million, representing an increase of 6.4% from US$9.8 million in the same period of 2020. This increase was primarily due to higher revenues from PaaS and SaaS service, partially offset by a decrease in revenues from data connectivity services.

· *Revenues from data connectivity services* were US$7.6 million, representing a decrease of 7.5% from US$8.2 million in the same period of 2020. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower revenues from local data connectivity services which went from US$2.5 million in the third quarter of 2020, to US$1.5 million in the third quarter of 2021, and offset by an increase in revenues from international data connectivity services, which went from US$5.7 million in the third quarter of 2020 to US$6.1 million in the third quarter of 2021. The decrease in revenues from local data connectivity services was mainly due to certain customers converted from local data connectivity services to our PaaS and SaaS services. On the other hand, the increase in revenues from international data connectivity services was mainly contributed to the gradual recovery of international travel.
· *Revenues from PaaS and SaaS services* were US$2.7 million, representing an increase of 81.6% from US$1.5 million in the same period of 2020. This increase was primarily due to the expansion in the number of our business partners that use our PaaS and SaaS services to provide local data connectivity services.

· *Revenues from sales of products* were US$8.8 million, representing an increase of 8.6% from US$8.2 million in the same period of 2020. The increase was primarily contributed to the growth of the data related products in this quarter.
· *Geographic Distribution
*During the third quarter of 2021, as a percentage of our total revenues, Japan contributed 46.6%, Mainland China contributed 3.7% and other countries and regions contributed the remaining 49.7%, compared with 56.4%, 5.4% and 38.2% contributed from Japan, Mainland China and other countries and regions respectively in the third quarter of 2020.

*Cost of Revenues*

Cost of revenues was US$13.8 million, representing an increase of 12.1% from US$12.4 million in the same period of 2020. This increase was due to the higher cost of the products sold, partially offset by a decrease in cost of services.

· *Cost of services* was US$5.9 million, representing a decrease of 5.2% from US$6.2 million in the same period of 2020. The decrease was contributed to the rising proportion of revenues from PaaS and SaaS services which had higher gross margin.
· *Cost of products* *sold* was US$7.9 million, representing an increase of 29.7% from US$6.2 million in the same period of 2020. The increase was mainly resulted from products mix and rising material costs due to global supply chain constraints.

*Gross Profit*

Overall gross profit was US$5.5 million, 28.3% in overall gross margin, compared to US$5.6 million, and 31.3%, respectively in the same period of 2020.

Our gross profit on services was US$4.6 million, 43.5% in gross margin, compared to US$3.6 million, and 36.6%, respectively in the same period of 2020.

Our gross profit on sales of products was US$0.9 million, 10.2% in gross margin, compared to US$2.0 million, and 24.8%, respectively in the same period of 2020.

*Operating Expenses*

Total operating expenses were US$12.7 million, compared to US$19.7 million in the same period of 2020.

· *Research and development expenses* were US$3.5 million, representing a decrease of 26.6% from US$4.8 million in the same period of 2020. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of US$1.8 million in share-based compensation expenses, partially offset by an increase of US$0.2 million in staff cost and an increase of US$0.2 million in professional service fee.
· *Sales and marketing expenses* were US$3.1 million, representing a decrease of 46.1% from US$5.7 million in the same period of 2020. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of US$2.3 million in share-based compensation expense and a decrease of US$0.3 million in staff cost.
· *General and administrative expenses* were US$6.1 million, representing a decrease of 33.9% from US$9.2 million in the same period of 2020. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of US$3.0 million in share-based compensation expenses, and a decrease of US$1.3 million account receivable bad debt provision, partially offset by an increase of US$1.0 million in staff cost.*Loss from Operations*

Loss from operations was US$7.0 million, compared with a loss from operations of US$9.6 million in the same period of 2020.

*Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP)*

Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP), which excludes the impact of share-based compensation, fair value gain/loss in other investments, share of profit/loss in equity method investment, net of tax, interest expense, income tax expenses and depreciation and amortization, was negative US$5.4 million, compared to negative US$5.0 million in the same period of 2020.

*Net Interest Expenses*

Net interest expenses were US$0.05 million, compared to US$0.04 million net interest expenses in the same period of 2020.

*Net Loss*

Net loss was US$7.0 million, compared with net loss of US$9.7 million in the same period of 2020.

*Adjusted Net Loss (Non-GAAP)*

Adjusted net loss, which excludes the impact of share-based compensation, the fair value gain/loss in other investments and share of profit/loss in equity method investment, net of tax, was US$6.0 million, compared with an adjusted net loss US$5.7 million in the same period of 2020.

*Basic and Diluted Loss per ADS*

Basic and diluted loss per ADS attributable to ordinary shareholders were US$0.25 in the third quarter of 2021, basic and diluted loss per ADS was US$0.34 in the same period of 2020.

*Cash and Cash Equivalents and Short-Term Deposits*

As of September 30, 2021, the Company had cash and cash equivalents, and short-term deposits of US$14.5 million, compared to US$18.6 million as of June 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to an outflow of US$5.7 million for operations and a repayment of US$2.0 million to bank borrowings, partially offset by net proceeds of US$3.5 million from bank borrowings.

*Capital Expenditures (“CAPEX”)*

CAPEX was US$0.3 million compared to US$0.1 million in the same period of 2020.

*Business Outlook*

For the fourth quarter of 2021, UCLOUDLINK expects total revenues to be between US$17.5 million and US$18.0 million, representing an 2.9% to 5.9% increase from the same period of 2020.

The above outlook is based on current market conditions and reflects the Company’s preliminary estimates of market and operating conditions and customer demand. The global outbreak of COVID-19, which has had a severe and negative impact on the global economy since the first quarter of 2020, continues to present various global risks, the full impact of which are still evolving. We will carefully monitor COVID-19 related factors such as vaccine rollouts, the impact of which is difficult to analyze and predict, and subject to change.

*Recent Developments*

The patent infringement disputes in U.S. have significant development and progress. We and SIMO Holdings Inc. (collectively with its affiliates, the “SIMO”) entered into a settlement agreement. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, the initiating parties of all cases between UCLOUDLINK and SIMO have submitted applications to withdraw these cases.

*Non-GAAP Financial Measures*

To supplement the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP, this press release presents, adjusted net loss and adjusted EBITDA, as supplemental measures to review and assess the Company’s operating performance. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Adjusted net loss is defined as net loss excluding share-based compensation, fair value gain/loss in other investments and share of profit/loss in equity method investment, net of tax. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net loss excluding share-based compensation, fair value gain/loss in other investments, share of profit/loss in equity method investment, net of tax, interest expense, income tax expenses and depreciation and amortization.

The Company believes that adjusted net loss and adjusted EBITDA help identify underlying trends in its business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of certain expenses that are included in loss from operations and net loss. The Company believes that adjusted net loss and adjusted EBITDA provide useful information about its operating results, enhance the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by its management in its financial and operational decision-making.

The non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. One of the key limitations of using adjusted net loss and adjusted EBITDA is that they do not reflect all items of income and expense that affect the Company’s operations. Share-based compensation and fair value gain/loss in other investments have been and may continue to be incurred in the Company’s business and is not reflected in the presentation of adjusted net loss. Further, the non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the non-GAAP information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited.

The Company compensate for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measure to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measure, all of which should be considered when evaluating its performance. The Company encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.

Reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is set forth at the end of this release.
