During the quarter, the company repurchased $16.9 million of its ADSs under its current $1 billion share repurchase program. It continued share repurchase of $4.3 million under its current $1.0 billion share repurchase program, which is effective for a 24-month period through February 2027.
Chair and CEO Eric Shen said the company continued to make progress on the strategic actions it had set out to return to growth. He further noted the expansion of its off-price brand supply, which drove the double-digit growth in Super VIP customers.
Outlook: For the second quarter, the company expects total net revenues between 25.5 billion Chinese yuan ($3.51 billion) and 26.9 billion Chinese yuan ($3.71 billion). This range falls slightly below the analyst consensus of 26.42 billion Chinese yuan ($3.64 billion) and represents a year-over-year decrease of approximately 0% to 5%.
