AACG ATA Creativity Global

ATA Creativity Global (“ACG” or the “Company”, Nasdaq: AACG), an international educational services company focused on providing quality learning experiences that cultivate and enhance students’ creativity, today announced preliminary unaudited financial results for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2022 (“Third Quarter 2022” and “Nine Months 2022”, respectively).

Third Quarter 2022 and Nine Months 2022 Highlights

• During Third Quarter 2022, student enrollment was 1,106 compared with 1,220 in the prior-year period. Of these students, 616 were enrolled in ACG’s portfolio training programs. 36,031 credit hours were delivered during Third Quarter 2022, compared to 44,640 in the prior-year period. From Third Quarter 2022 onward, student enrollment numbers will exclude those enrolled in foreign language training services (previously categorized under “other educational services”), which operated under a former ACG subsidiary, as majority equity interests of this former subsidiary were disposed in July 2022 and the financials of this subsidiary was subsequently deconsolidated
• Third Quarter 2022 net revenues were RMB52.1 million (US$7.3 million), compared to RMB55.3 million in the prior-year period, mainly due to decreased contributions from portfolio training services, which were primarily impacted by temporary training center closures in major cities including Shenzhen and Chengdu, as a result of local COVID-19 resurgences and subsequent lockdowns
• Third Quarter 2022 net loss attributable to ACG narrowed to RMB12.0 million (US$1.7 million), compared to net loss attributable to ACG of RMB26.2 million in the prior-year period
• Nine Months 2022 net revenues were RMB128.3 million (US$18.0 million), compared to RMB129.6 million in the prior-year period
• Nine Months 2022 net loss attributable to ACG was RMB49.9 million (US$7.0 million), compared to net loss attributable to ACG of RMB31.1 million in the prior-year period, primarily as a result of a one-time RMB33.5 million investment gain related to the disposal of the K-12 education assessment business in the prior-year period, which was offset by lower general and administrative expenses of RMB10.0 million related to funding support to Tsinghua University, as well as a RMB6.0 million impairment loss of investment recorded in the prior-year period
• RMB59.9 million (US$8.4 million) in cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2022

Management Commentary

Mr. Kevin Ma, Chairman and CEO of ACG, stated, “During Third Quarter 2022, we continued to support many of our students remotely in an ongoing pandemic environment as a result of local COVID-19 resurgences and subsequent lockdowns in some of our key cities. Our revenues for the period were impacted by a decrease in portfolio training service revenue contributions primarily due to these local lockdowns; however, we were pleased to see ongoing interest in our research-based learning programs and many of our students continuing to pursue their creative studies by applying for overseas study programs. While the pandemic environment did impact credit hours delivered for portfolio training programs during Third Quarter 2022, we were able to maintain stable revenues year over year due to a significantly larger proportion of these credit hours coming from project-based programs. In striving to improve our students’ experience at ACG, we recently introduced a new platform for students and teachers with a goal of helping them better manage their class hours and progress. We are prepared to adapt to the changing environment and will continue to support our students in their creative studies as we remain mindful of the public health situation.”

Mr. Ma added, “We recently launched several new programs featuring different themes including design, fine arts, and animation and games, such as Central Saint Martins Art & Design Program, Sheridan Animation & Games Summer Camp, and our innovative Metaverse Summer School. These programs were developed to cater to students at all different stages of their creative education journey and were delivered in a combination of both online and offline formats. We are pleased with the positive feedback we have received from students thus far. I would like to highlight our Intensive Training Class for the 2022 UWEE International Art Exhibition, which promoted the theme of ‘One World One Future.’ Participating students had the opportunity to experience immersive art creation courses and expose themselves to various artistic styles and schools. Selected artwork from participating students will be exhibited at the Louvre Museum. These are some of the exciting new program offerings that we believe differentiate ACG from other creative education institutions, and we look forward to continuing the expansion of our course offerings for our students.”

Outlook

Mr. Jun Zhang, President of ACG, stated, “ACG’s goal in recent years has been to provide a complete high-quality creative arts education experience for our various students. We were able to achieve this during Third Quarter 2022 despite the ongoing pandemic environment in some of our key cities. For the remainder of 2022, we intend to continue leveraging and enhancing our longstanding reputation with the support of our teaching staff, institutional partners and diversified product offerings. We are working to continue expanding course offerings and have launched new programs in recent months, such as a program of Overseas Master Class in Visual Arts lectured by professors from New York University, two ACG workshops focused on topics such as Tokyo Urban Meditation Cabins and the Metaverse in the Post-pandemic Era with different themes for students to choose from. As international travel is expected to continue opening up in the future, we anticipate an increasing number of students to take advantage of our overseas study counselling services, and we look forward to assisting these students in their educational pursuits.”

Mr. Zhang continued, “Operationally, we are pleased to have garnered a great deal of valuable student feedback with regards to class design, course curricula, and sales and marketing following our initial integration of full-time teachers into more internal management activities.”

Operating Review

Enrollment Update

ACG student enrollment for Third Quarter 2022 was 1,106, of which 616 were enrolled in portfolio training programs, which consisted of time-based programs and project-based programs.

A total of 36,031 credit hours were delivered for portfolio training programs during Third Quarter 2022, of which 12,923 credit hours were delivered for time-based programs and 23,108 credit hours were delivered for project-based programs. These courses were delivered either in person through ACG’s nationwide training center network or via online platform.

The following is a summary of the credit hours delivered for ACG’s portfolio training programs for Third Quarter 2022, compared to those for the prior-year period:

		ThirdQuarter Ended September 30, 2022		ThirdQuarter Ended September 30, 2021		% Change
		No. of Credit Hours		No. of Credit Hours
Time-based Program		12,923		21,290		(39.3%)
Project-based Program		23,108		23,350		(1.0%)
Total		36,031		44,640		(19.3%)

During Third Quarter 2022, 490 students were enrolled in ACG’s other programs, which primarily consisted of overseas study counselling services and research-based learning services. As mentioned above, ACG deconsolidated a former subsidiary during Third Quarter 2022, which operated the foreign language training services business, as categorized under “other educational services” in prior quarters.

Third Quarter 2022 Financial Review – GAAP Results

ACG’s total net revenues for Third Quarter 2022 were RMB52.1 million (US$7.3 million), compared to RMB55.3 million in the prior-year period, primarily due to decreased revenues from portfolio training services caused by local COVID-19 resurgences and subsequent lockdowns in certain key cities such as Shenzhen and Chengdu. Revenues from portfolio training programs were RMB41.8 million, or 80.2% of total net revenues, during the period. Revenues from overseas study counselling services, research-based learning services and other educational services were RMB10.3 million, or 19.8% of total net revenues, during the period.

Gross profit for Third Quarter 2022 was RMB23.5 million (US$3.3 million), compared to RMB28.4 million in the prior-year period. Gross margin was 45.1% during the period, compared to 51.4% in the prior-year period. The decrease was largely due to the decreased revenues from portfolio training services, which was primarily impacted by local COVID-19 resurgences and lockdowns in certain key cities during the quarter.

Total operating expenses for Third Quarter 2022 decreased to RMB39.8 million (US$5.6 million), from RMB50.6 million in the prior-year period, primarily as a result of decreased general and administrative expenses related to the final one-time funding support of RMB10.0 million to Tsinghua University that was paid in the prior-year period.

Loss from operations for Third Quarter 2022 narrowed to RMB16.3 million (US$2.3 million), compared to RMB22.2 million in the prior-year period.

Net loss attributable to ACG for Third Quarter 2022 was RMB12.0 million (US$1.7 million), compared to net loss attributable to ACG of RMB26.2 million in the prior-year period.

For Third Quarter 2022, basic and diluted losses per common share attributable to ACG were both RMB0.19 (US$0.03), compared to basic and diluted losses per common share of RMB0.42 for the prior-year period. Basic and diluted losses per ADS attributable to ACG were both RMB0.38 (US$0.06), compared to basic and diluted losses per ADS of RMB0.84 in the prior-year period.

Nine Months 2022 Financial Review – GAAP Results

ACG’s total net revenues for Nine Months 2022 were RMB128.3 million (US$18.0 million), compared to RMB129.6 million in the prior-year period. The slight decrease was primarily caused by decreased revenue contributions from portfolio training services as a result of temporary training center closures in certain key cities due to local COVID-19 resurgences and lockdowns, which was partially offset by increased contributions from overseas study counselling services. Revenues from portfolio training programs were RMB94.9 million, or 74.0% of total net revenues, during the period. Revenues from overseas study counselling services, research-based learning services and other educational services were RMB33.4 million, or 26.0% of total net revenues, during the period.

Gross profit for Nine Months 2022 was RMB54.9 million (US$7.7 million), compared to RMB59.3 million in the prior-year period. Gross margin was 42.8% during the period, compared to 45.7% in the prior-year period.

Total operating expenses for Nine Months 2022 decreased to RMB116.4 million (US$16.4 million), from RMB128.5 million in the prior-year period, mainly for the reason noted in the above Third Quarter 2022 Financial Review.

Loss from operations for Nine Months 2022 improved to RMB61.5 million (US$8.6 million), from RMB69.3 million in the prior-year period.

Net loss attributable to ACG for Nine Months 2022 was RMB49.9 million (US$7.0 million), compared to net loss attributable to ACG of RMB31.1 million in the prior-year period. This was primarily due to a one-time RMB33.5 million investment gain resulting from the disposal of the Company’s K-12 education assessment business in June 2021, which was offset by decreased general and administrative expenses of RMB10.0 million related to the Tsinghua University funding support noted above, as well as a RMB6.0 million impairment loss in relation to investment recorded in the prior-year period.

For Nine Months 2022, basic and diluted losses per common share attributable to ACG were both RMB0.80 (US$0.11), compared to basic and diluted losses per common share of RMB0.53 for the prior-year period. Basic and diluted losses per ADS attributable to ACG were both RMB1.60 (US$0.22), compared to basic and diluted losses per ADS of RMB1.06 in the prior-year period.

Non-GAAP Measures

Adjusted net loss attributable to ACG for Third Quarter 2022, which excludes share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange loss (non-GAAP), was RMB11.6 million (US$1.6 million), compared to adjusted net loss of RMB25.9 million in the prior-year period.

Basic and diluted losses per common share attributable to ACG excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange loss (non-GAAP) for Third Quarter 2022, were RMB0.18 (US$0.03). Basic and diluted losses per ADS attributable to ACG excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange loss (non-GAAP) for Third Quarter 2022 were RMB0.36 (US$0.06).

Please see the note about non-GAAP measures and the reconciliation table at the end of this press release.

Other Data

The number of weighted average ADSs used to calculate basic and diluted earnings per ADS for Third Quarter 2022 were both 31.4 million. Each ADS represents two common shares.

Currency Convenience Translation

The Company’s financial information is stated in Renminbi (“RMB”), the currency of the People’s Republic of China. The translations of RMB amounts for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, into U.S. dollars are included solely for the convenience of readers and have been made at the rate of RMB7.1135 to US$1.00, the noon buying rate as of September 30, 2022, in New York for cable transfers in RMB per U.S. dollar as set forth in the H.10 weekly statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board. Such translations should not be construed as representations that RMB amounts could be converted into U.S. dollars at that rate or any other rate, or to be the amounts that would have been reported under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement ACG’s consolidated financial information presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, ACG uses the following non-GAAP financial measures: net loss excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gain or loss, and basic and diluted losses per common share and ADS excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gain or loss.

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 GAAP. ACG believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information about its performance by excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gain or loss, which may not be indicative of its operating performance.

ACG believes that both management and investors benefit from these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing its performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparisons to ACG’s historical performance. ACG computes its non-GAAP financial measures using a consistent method from period to period. ACG believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making. A limitation of using non-GAAP net loss excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gain or loss and basic and diluted losses per common share and per ADS excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gain or loss is that share-based compensation charges and foreign currency exchange gain or loss have been, and are expected to continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense in ACG’s business.

Management compensates for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from each non-GAAP measure. The table captioned “Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Measures to the Most Comparable GAAP Measures” shown at the end of this news release has more details on the reconciliations between GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to the non-GAAP financial measures used by ACG.
