Adjusted EBITDA and core net income are presented as non-GAAP financial measures, which are not defined under U.S. GAAP and may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies. These metrics exclude items such as depreciation and amortization, interest expense or income, gains or losses from investments in equity securities, income tax expenses, share-based compensation, share of loss in equity investees, government subsidies, and other relevant items. The limitations of Adjusted EBITDA and core net income include the exclusion of significant income and expense components that affect operations. Depreciation and amortization for long-term assets, income tax, and share-based compensation are not reflected in these figures. Adjusted EBITDA and core net income also do not account for capital expenditures and other investing activities, and should not be considered as measures of liquidity. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures, along with relevant disclosures of excluded items, are provided in the company's consolidated financial statements and the end of the press release. A cash dividend of US$0.06 per American Depositary Share is payable to holders of the company's ordinary shares on record at the close of trading on October 31, 2025.
