SHANGHAI, April 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- 111, Inc. ("111" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:YI), a leading tech-enabled healthcare platform company committed to reshaping the value chain of healthcare industry by digitally empowering the upstream and downstream in China, today announced its unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

2025 Executing Strategic Optimization: Embraces Asset-Light Partnership Network Growth

In 2025, the Company proactively implemented strategic structural optimization by divesting its 100% equity interests in several subsidiaries. While this structural optimization created a temporary headwind for top-line revenue, these facilities have now joined our ecosystem as fulfillment partners and are dedicated to serving our customers exclusively. Through the divestiture of these entities and our transition to a warehouse partnership model—where we generate recurring commission income rather than bearing the operational and capital burdens—we have successfully driven continued margin expansion. By optimizing our network and selectively exiting underperforming fulfillment centers, we have strengthened our ability to further improve our profitability and liquidity profile in the future.

Fourth Quarter 2025 Highlights

• Net revenues were RMB2.8 billion (US$403.3 million) and gross segment profit ⁽¹⁾ was RMB164.9 million (US$23.6 million). Due to the strategic optimization, gross margin continued to expand. B2B gross profit margin reached 5.6%, representing an improvement of 60 basis points from 5.0% in the same quarter of 2024.

• Total operating expenses were RMB165.2 million (US$23.6 million), representing a decrease of 21.3% compared to RMB209.8 million in the same quarter of 2024, highlighting continued cost optimization and efficiency gains.

• Non-GAAP income from operations ⁽²⁾ was RMB0.2 million (US$0.03 million), compared to a non-GAAP loss from operations of RMB2.3 million in the same quarter of 2024. The Company achieved non-GAAP operating profitability in the quarter, marking a year-over-year turnaround from loss to profit.

• Net cash provided by operating activities was RMB29.9 million (US$4.3 million). The Company achieved a meaningful operating cash flow turnaround, moving from negative to positive year-over-year, underscoring stronger business fundamentals and improved financial health.

Fiscal Year 2025 Highlights

• Net revenues were RMB12.6 billion (US$1.8 billion) and gross segment profit was RMB723.4 million (US$103.4 million). Due to the strategic optimization, B2B gross profit margin rose 10 basis points from 5.4% to 5.5% year-over-year, reflecting continued optimization of core operations.

• Total operating expenses were RMB725.8 million (US$103.8 million), representing a decrease of 12.3% compared to RMB827.1 million in the prior year. The Company continued to focus on operational efficiency and disciplined cost management.

• Non-GAAP income from operations was RMB7.7 million (US$1.1 million), compared to RMB22.3 million in 2024. The year-over-year decrease reflected the intentional reduction in revenue scale resulting from the strategic transition, partially offset by continued gross margin expansion. Importantly, the Company maintained non-GAAP operating profitability for both 2025 and 2024, marking a key milestone on the path toward sustainable earnings.

• Net cash provided by operating activities was RMB119.1 million (US$17.0 million). The Company delivered annual positive operating cash flow for both 2025 and 2024, demonstrating improved financial discipline and business quality.

• Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments amounted to RMB611.3 million (US$87.4 million) as of December 31, 2025, representing an increase of 17.9% compared to the end of 2024.

Mr. Junling Liu, Co-Founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer of 111, commented, "2025 marked a pivotal year for 111, as we steadily advanced our transition to a warehouse partnership model and achieved a key profitability milestone. We delivered non-GAAP operating profitability and positive operating cash flow for both the quarter and the full year. These results underscore the strength of our platform and validate the strategic direction we have set for the Company."

"In 2025, we proactively implemented strategic structural optimization by divesting 100% equity interests in several subsidiaries. Through the divestiture of these entities and our transition to a warehouse partnership model—where we generate recurring commission income rather than bearing operational and capital burdens—we achieved sustained gross margin expansion for the B2B business. We believe this initiative reinforces our focus on pursuing asset-light, profitable growth, strengthening our ability to scale the warehouse partnership network efficiently while maintaining a healthier financial structure."

"Our strategic initiatives are yielding significant results. Promotional products are rapidly reaching pharmacies nationwide through the 111 digital marketing platform. Revenue from all marketing-promoted products increased by 76.2% and gross profit rose 81.7% compared to the same quarter last year. As a notable promotional product, "Cravit" has become our flagship star product, whose monthly sales volume rose sharply from 20,000 boxes at launch in March to a monthly peak of 290,000 boxes in November 2025. GMV generated by the product in 2025 also increased by 368.2% on a year-over-year basis. This success underscores our unique marketing capabilities and has delivered strong momentum to both our upstream and downstream partners."

"Looking ahead, with our solid foundation and strategic optimization, we are well positioned for sustainable, high-quality growth. We have deeply integrated AI applications across our operations to drive meaningfully enhanced efficiency, and will continue to focus on leading the Company's evolution from a digital to an intelligent ecosystem—creating durable long-term opportunities for our partners, customers, and shareholders. Through a more streamlined and intelligent operating model, we aim to drive consistent margin expansion, improve profitability, and deliver enduring value to all stakeholders."

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In evaluating the business, the Company considers and uses non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders, and non-GAAP loss per ADS, as supplemental measures to review and assess its operating performance. The Company defines non-GAAP income (loss) from operations as income (loss) from operations excluding share-based compensation expenses. The Company defines non-GAAP net loss as net loss excluding share-based compensation expenses, net of tax. The Company defines non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders as net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders excluding share-based compensation expenses, net of tax. The Company defines non-GAAP loss per ADS as net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders per ADS excluding share-based compensation expenses, net of tax per ADS. 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.

The Company believes that non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders, and non-GAAP loss per ADS help identify underlying trends in its business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of certain expenses that it includes in income (loss) from operations and net loss. Share-based compensation expenses is a non-cash expense that varies from period to period. As a result, management excludes the items from its internal operating forecasts and models. Management believes that the adjustments for share-based compensation expenses provide investors with a reasonable basis to measure the company's core operating performance, in a more meaningful comparison with the performance of other companies. The Company believes that non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders, and non-GAAP loss per ADS provide useful information about its operating results, enhances the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by the management in their 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 non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders, or non-GAAP loss per ADS is that it does not reflect all items of income and expense that affect the Company's operations. 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 compensates for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measures, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company's performance. The Company encourages you to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.

Reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measures is included at the end of this press release.
