Along the way, we have helped our mobile APP developer customers improve efficiency, grow users, and realize commercialization in this decade. We are very proud of this. Here, I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to all mobile APP developers who have given us full trust and collaborated with us over the past ten years. I believe that with the help of more excellent innovative products and services from Aurora, our customers will have a more exciting next decade.\"\"Looking back at 2020, this is indeed an extraordinary year. The unexpected epidemic has changed the world, people's lifestyle, and the way the company conducts business at many levels. During the epidemic, we persistently implemented the company's core strategy to help developers better conduct business operations, increase users, and monetize traffic. With a solid business foundation based on developer subscription services, we innovatively expanded and created new businesses of Aurora Alliance to help developers better monetize traffic. In just five quarters, Aurora Alliance has achieved great success and remarkable performance. Its total number of daily active users has rapidly increased from zero to 130 million, and related revenue in 2020 has increased 15 times year-on-year. \"\"At the same time, we have completed the orderly exit of the precision marketing business. Although the precision marketing business is the largest source of revenue contribution in 2019, we believe that it is not in line with the company's long-term strategic direction. Now I am proud to announce that at the end of the fourth quarter of 2020, our business strategic transformation was fully completed, and the company successfully transitioned to 100% SAAS business model.\"\"The company's revenue from the SAAS business in the fourth quarter (including developer services and industry applications only) reached 76.6 million yuan, reaching the upper limit of the revenue guidance range, a year-on-year increase of 17%, mainly due to the 46% increase in developer service revenue. Strong growth, but partially offset by the decline in revenue of industry applications due to the impact of COVID-19 pandemic. However, the demand of industry application customers continues to recover, and related revenue has achieved steady quarter-on-quarter growth for three consecutive quarters. In the fourth quarter, SAAS business revenue increased by 17% quarter-on-quarter to 76.6 million yuan, and the proportion of SAAS business revenue also increased from 60% in the previous quarter to 72%. In the future, the SAAS business will contribute 100% of the Group's revenue. \"\"The gross profit of the SAAS business also performed well in the fourth quarter, rising sharply by 28% year-on-year to 58.7 million yuan, which was mainly due to the 17% year-on-year increase in revenue and the increase in gross profit margin from 70% in the same period last year to 77%. We expect the gross profit margin for the whole year of 2021 to remain above 70%. The gross profit ratio of the SAAS business in the fourth quarter of 2020 increased to 98% from 96% in the previous quarter. In the future, the SAAS business will contribute 100% of the Group's gross profit. \"\"In 2020, we also paid more attention to product development and innovation, and successfully launched three new heavyweight products. First, we enriched the product features of Aurora Alliance and added new in-app messaging products. In the developer subscription service, we launched Aurora UMS and Aurora VAAS products to meet the new pain point needs of developers and enterprises.\"\"Aurora UMS (Unified Messaging System) can help enterprises accurately reach target customers in a more efficient and cost-effective way through a unified messaging management platform, and leverage flexible path policy management to simplify operations and reduce costs.\"\"On the other hand, Aurora VAAS (Video as a Service Solution) can help mobile developers provide user-friendly short video content in their apps, thus improving user experience, increasing user stickiness and activity, and improving developers' monetization ability. Aurora VAAS has the characteristics of distributed short video content distribution, which allows users to watch short videos in any APP connected to Aurora VAAS service anytime and anywhere, instead of focusing on visiting some specific short video apps to watch.\"\"Aurora UMS and Aurora VAAS products and services are provided on a subscription-to-pay model, and customers can subscribe and pay an annual fee according to their preferred functions. We believe that over time, these two products can significantly expand our paying customer base, significantly increase the unit price (ARPU) of developer subscription business.\"Chen Fei, president of Aurora, said: \"As of December 31, 2020, developer service revenue reached 52.5 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 46%. The number of customers and ARPU of developer services increased by 28% and 14% respectively, driving developer services. Significant growth in service revenue. For subscription services in developer services, we continue to witness more and more customers registering to use our developer services products. Revenue from subscription services reached RMB35.1 million in the fourth quarter, up 7% year-on-year and 16% quarter-on-quarter, mainly due to the increase in customer numbers. \"\"Revenue from value-added services in developer services, including Aurora Alliance services and advertising SAAS, was strong again in the quarter, with revenue increasing 29% sequentially and 432% year-over-year.\"\"The annual revenue of value-added services increased from RMB 3.3 million in 2019 to RMB 52.5 million. The 15-fold increase in annual revenue reflects the growing market demand for our value-added services and its huge potential business opportunities.\"\"In the fourth quarter, value-added service revenue was 17.4 million yuan, compared with 3.3 million yuan in the same period last year. The 432% year-on-year growth was mainly due to the simultaneous growth of the supply and demand side of Aurora Alliance's business. On the supply side, we continue to see many apps joining the traffic network of Aurora Alliance. In the fourth quarter, the total number of apps in the network exceeded 200, and the total number of daily active users exceeded 130 million, up 100% and 30% respectively from the previous quarter. The continued growth in the number of APPs and the total number of daily active users reflects the strong market demand for Aurora Alliance products. \"\"On the demand side, mini program developers continue to play an important role in Aurora Alliance's traffic consumption, contributing 39% of Aurora Alliance's revenue this quarter. Aurora Alliance's growing traffic pool resources and unique innovative advertising formats provide customers with a new medium to efficiently acquire customers and activate silent users.\"\"Our industry applications include industry insights, financial risk control and Aurora commercial geographic products. Revenue from industry application business increased by 10% from 21.9 million yuan in the third quarter to 24.1 million yuan in this quarter. Industry application business revenue achieved quarter-on-quarter growth in every quarter of 2020.\"Huang Shangneng, Chief Financial Officer of Aurora, said: \"In the fourth quarter, we once again achieved outstanding results in terms of operation and finance.

ADJUSTED EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization excluding stock-based compensation expenses) narrowed its loss by 22% from-22 million yuan in the third quarter to-17.1 million yuan in this quarter. This is our best ADJUSTED EBITDA quarterly performance in 2020. \"\"On the balance sheet, our accounts receivable turnover days continued to improve, significantly shortening from 70 days in the fourth quarter of 2019 and 45 days in the third quarter of 2020 to 37 days in the fourth quarter of 2020. As of December 31, 2020, the balance of deferred revenue on behalf of customer prepayments increased significantly by 41% year-on-year to RMB 109 million. In the fourth quarter of 2020, we once again achieved positive operating cash inflow. This is the third consecutive quarter since the second quarter of 2020 that we have recorded positive net operating cash inflows. The improvement in each item on the balance sheet is largely due to our transition to the SAAS business model. \"\"Since January 2021, we have opened a new chapter in the development history of Aurora, from which 100% of our revenue will come from the SAAS business.

Here, I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to all mobile APP developers who have given us full trust and collaborated with us over the past ten years. I believe that with the help of more excellent innovative products and services from Aurora, our customers will have a more exciting next decade.\"\"Looking back at 2020, this is indeed an extraordinary year. The unexpected epidemic has changed the world, people's lifestyle, and the way the company conducts business at many levels. During the epidemic, we persistently implemented the company's core strategy to help developers better conduct business operations, increase users, and monetize traffic. With a solid business foundation based on developer subscription services, we innovatively expanded and created new businesses of Aurora Alliance to help developers better monetize traffic. In just five quarters, Aurora Alliance has achieved great success and remarkable performance. Its total number of daily active users has rapidly increased from zero to 130 million, and related revenue in 2020 has increased 15 times year-on-year. \"\"At the same time, we have completed the orderly exit of the precision marketing business. Although the precision marketing business is the largest source of revenue contribution in 2019, we believe that it is not in line with the company's long-term strategic direction. Now I am proud to announce that at the end of the fourth quarter of 2020, our business strategic transformation was fully completed, and the company successfully transitioned to 100% SAAS business model.\"\"The company's revenue from the SAAS business in the fourth quarter (including developer services and industry applications only) reached 76.6 million yuan, reaching the upper limit of the revenue guidance range, a year-on-year increase of 17%, mainly due to the 46% increase in developer service revenue.

However, the demand of industry application customers continues to recover, and related revenue has achieved steady quarter-on-quarter growth for three consecutive quarters. In the fourth quarter, SAAS business revenue increased by 17% quarter-on-quarter to 76.6 million yuan, and the proportion of SAAS business revenue also increased from 60% in the previous quarter to 72%. In the future, the SAAS business will contribute 100% of the Group's revenue. \"\"The gross profit of the SAAS business also performed well in the fourth quarter, rising sharply by 28% year-on-year to 58.7 million yuan, which was mainly due to the 17% year-on-year increase in revenue and the increase in gross profit margin from 70% in the same period last year to 77%. We expect the gross profit margin for the whole year of 2021 to remain above 70%. The gross profit ratio of the SAAS business in the fourth quarter of 2020 increased to 98% from 96% in the previous quarter. In the future, the SAAS business will contribute 100% of the Group's gross profit. \"\"In 2020, we also paid more attention to product development and innovation, and successfully launched three new heavyweight products. First, we enriched the product features of Aurora Alliance and added new in-app messaging products. In the developer subscription service, we launched Aurora UMS and Aurora VAAS products to meet the new pain point needs of developers and enterprises.\"\"Aurora UMS (Unified Messaging System) can help enterprises accurately reach target customers in a more efficient and cost-effective way through a unified messaging management platform, and leverage flexible path policy management to simplify operations and reduce costs.\"\"On the other hand, Aurora VAAS (Video as a Service Solution) can help mobile developers provide user-friendly short video content in their apps, thus improving user experience, increasing user stickiness and activity, and improving developers' monetization ability. Aurora VAAS has the characteristics of distributed short video content distribution, which allows users to watch short videos in any APP connected to Aurora VAAS service anytime and anywhere, instead of focusing on visiting some specific short video apps to watch.\"\"Aurora UMS and Aurora VAAS products and services are provided on a subscription-to-pay model, and customers can subscribe and pay an annual fee according to their preferred functions. We believe that over time, these two products can significantly expand our paying customer base, significantly increase the unit price (ARPU) of developer subscription business.\"Chen Fei, president of Aurora, said: \"As of December 31, 2020, developer service revenue reached 52.5 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 46%. The number of customers and ARPU of developer services increased by 28% and 14% respectively, driving developer services. Significant growth in service revenue. For subscription services in developer services, we continue to witness more and more customers registering to use our developer services products. Revenue from subscription services reached RMB35.1 million in the fourth quarter, up 7% year-on-year and 16% quarter-on-quarter, mainly due to the increase in customer numbers. \"\"Revenue from value-added services in developer services, including Aurora Alliance services and advertising SAAS, was strong again in the quarter, with revenue increasing 29% sequentially and 432% year-over-year.\"\"The annual revenue of value-added services increased from RMB 3.3 million in 2019 to RMB 52.5 million. The 15-fold increase in annual revenue reflects the growing market demand for our value-added services and its huge potential business opportunities.\"\"In the fourth quarter, value-added service revenue was 17.4 million yuan, compared with 3.3 million yuan in the same period last year. The 432% year-on-year growth was mainly due to the simultaneous growth of the supply and demand side of Aurora Alliance's business. On the supply side, we continue to see many apps joining the traffic network of Aurora Alliance. In the fourth quarter, the total number of apps in the network exceeded 200, and the total number of daily active users exceeded 130 million, up 100% and 30% respectively from the previous quarter. The continued growth in the number of APPs and the total number of daily active users reflects the strong market demand for Aurora Alliance products. \"\"On the demand side, mini program developers continue to play an important role in Aurora Alliance's traffic consumption, contributing 39% of Aurora Alliance's revenue this quarter. Aurora Alliance's growing traffic pool resources and unique innovative advertising formats provide customers with a new medium to efficiently acquire customers and activate silent users.\"\"Our industry applications include industry insights, financial risk control and Aurora commercial geographic products.

This is our best ADJUSTED EBITDA quarterly performance in 2020. \"\"On the balance sheet, our accounts receivable turnover days continued to improve, significantly shortening from 70 days in the fourth quarter of 2019 and 45 days in the third quarter of 2020 to 37 days in the fourth quarter of 2020.

In the fourth quarter of 2020, we once again achieved positive operating cash inflow.

(统一消息系统)可以帮助企业通过统一的消息管理平台，以更高效、更省钱的方式精准触达目标客户，并利用灵活的路径策略管理来简化运营并降低成本。”\n“另一方面，极光VAAS(视频即服务解决方案)可以帮助移动开发者在其APP中提供用户友好型短视频内容，从而提升用户体验，增加用户粘性和活跃度，提高开发者的变现能力。极光VAAS具有分布式的短视频内容分发特点，可以让用户随时随地在任何接入极光VAAS服务的APP中观看短视频，而非集中访问某些特定的短视频APP来观看。”\n“极光UMS和极光VAAS产品和服务均以订阅付费的模式提供，客户可以根据喜好的功能来订阅并支付年费。我们相信随着时间的推移，这两款产品可以大幅扩展我们的付费客户群、显著提升开发者订阅业务的客单价(ARPU)。”\n极光总裁陈菲表示：“截至2020年12月31日，开发者服务收入达5,250万元人民币，同比增长46%。开发者服务的客户数量和ARPU分别增长了28% 和14%，推动了开发者服务收入的显著增长。对于开发者服务中的订阅服务，我们持续见证越来越多的客户注册使用我们的开发者服务产品。第四季度订阅服务收入达到3,510万元人民币，同比增长7%，环比增长16%，主要得益于客户数量的增长。”\n“开发者服务中的增值服务，包括极光联盟服务和广告SAAS的收入，本季度再次表现强劲，收入环比增长29%，同比增长432%。”\n“增值服务全年收入由2019年的330万元人民币增长至5,250万元人民币。全年收入15倍的增长体现了市场对我们增值服务不断增长的需求及其巨大的潜在商机。”\n“第四季度，增值服务收入为1,740万元人民币，而去年同期为330万元人民币，432%的同比增长主要得益于极光联盟业务供需端的同步增长。在供给端，我们持续看到众多APP加入极光联盟的流量网络，第四季度网络内APP总数超过200个，日活跃用户总数超过1.3亿，环比分别增长100% 和30%。APP数量和日活跃用户总数的持续增长体现了市场对极光联盟产品的强劲需求。”\n“在需求端，小程序开发者继续在极光联盟的流量消耗中扮演重要角色，本季度贡献了极光联盟39%的收入。极光联盟不断增长的流量池资源以及独特的创新广告形式为客户提供了全新的媒介来高效获客并激活沉默用户。”\n“我们的行业应用包括行业洞察、金融风控以及极光商业地理产品。行业应用业务的收入从第三季度的2,190万元人民币增长10%至本季度的2,410万元人民币。行业应用业务收入在2020年的每个季度均实现环比增长。”\n极光首席财务官黄尚能表示：“第四季度我们在经营和财务方面再次取得出色业绩，SAAS业务收入以及毛利润贡献在2020年的四个季度均获得稳定的双位数增长；第四季度，开发者增值服务收入同比增长432%，集团毛利率再创新高，从第三季度的47%增长至第四季度的57%；第四季度98%的毛利润贡献来自SAAS业务。经调整的息税折旧摊销前利润 (ADJUSTED EBITDA)(除去股票薪酬费用的息税折旧摊销前利润)从第三季度的-2,200万元人民币缩减亏损22%至本季度的-1,710万元人民币。这是我们2020年最佳的ADJUSTED EBITDA 季度表现。”\n“资产负债表方面，我们的应收账款周转天数持续改善，从2019年第四季度的70天、2020年第三季度的45天大幅缩短至2020年第四季度的37天。截至2020年12月31日，代表客户预付款的递延收入余额同比大幅增长41％至1.09亿元人民币。2020年第四季度，我们再次取得经营性现金正流入。这是自2020年第二季度以来我们连续第三个季度录得净运营现金正流入。资产负债表上每个项目的改善主要得益于我们向SAAS业务模式的转型。”\n“自2021年1月，我们揭开了极光发展历程的新篇章，由此我们的收入将100%来自SAAS业务。上述财务和运营数据已经证明这一业务转型对我们整体的财务表现大有裨益。”\n2020年第四季度财报\n收入为1.060亿元人民币(1,620万美元)，与2019年同期的1.828亿元人民币相比下降42%，主要由于2020年年底公司已退出精准营销业务，导致精准营销业务的收入同比下降75%，但为开发者服务收入同比强劲增长46%所部分抵消。特别值得一提的是，开发者服务中的增值服务收入同比大幅增长432%。\n营收成本为4,590万元人民币(700万美元)，与2019年同期的1.224亿元人民币相比减少63%，主要是由于随着公司有序退出精准营销业务，媒体成本减少7,320万元人民币，以及宽带成本减少200万元人民币。\n毛利润为6,010万元人民币(920万美元)，虽然收入同比下降42%，但毛利润与2019年同期的6,040万元人民币相比保持在较为平稳的水平，这是公司将战略重心从传统的精准营销模式成功转型至SAAS业务模式所取得的成效。\n总运营费用为1.065亿元人民币(1,630万美元)，与2019年同期的1.033亿元人民币相比增加3%。\n· 研发费用为4,060万元人民币(620万美元)，与2019年同期的4,390万元人民币相比减少8%，主要是由于员工成本减少870万元人民币，但为技术服务费用增加的310万元人民币以及宽带费用增加的260万元人民币所部分抵消。\n· 销售及市场推广费用为2,230万元人民币(340万美元)，与2019年同期的3,050万元人民币相比减少27%，主要是由于员工成本减少560万元人民币以及营销费用减少200万元人民币。\n· 管理费用为4,350万元人民币(670万美元)，与2019年同期的2,880万元人民币相比增加51%，主要是由于“上云”项目的一次性成本造成长期资产减值损失增加1,100万元人民币，以及专业费用和历史遗留精准营销业务坏账准备的增加。我们的“ 上云”项目是为了满足部分基础设施需求而转向利用云服务器的举措，而之前我们是基于自有服务器的全面运营和维护。\n营业亏损为4,640万元人民币(710万美元)，2019年同期亏损为4,290万元人民币。\n净亏损为8,990万元人民币(1,380万美元)，2019年同期净亏损为4,020万元人民币，2020年第三季度净亏损为4,370万元人民币。\n经调整的(非公认会计准则)净亏损为2,940万元人民币(450万美元)，2019年同期经调整的净亏损为2,090万元人民币，2020年第三季度经调整的净亏损为3,690万元人民币。\n经调整的(非公认会计准则)息税折旧摊销前亏损(ADJUSTED

研发费用为1.746亿元人民币(2,680万美元)，与2019年的1.762亿元人民币相比减少1%，主要是由于员工成本减少1,890万元人民币，但为技术服务费用增加1,030万元人民币以及580万元人民币的折旧所抵消。\n·
