Mr. Meisong Lai, Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of ZTO, commented, “With sound execution of our consistent strategies, ZTO achieved good results for the first quarter. Parcel volume reached 5.2 billion, and we expanded our market share by 1.2 points to 21.6%. Benefiting from the industry’s price stabilization and meaningful increases, we increased our income from operations by 76.4% to 1.1billion while maintaining superior quality of services. 2022 remarks our 20th anniversary, and ZTO is better prepared than ever before to further our competitive lead in scale, efficiency and quality of earnings.”
Mr. Lai added, “The abrupt Omicron outbreaks that scattered across the country in mid-March disrupted the industry’s growth momentum causing its parcel volume to decrease by nearly 12% year over year for the month of April. Tremendous efforts and sacrifices were being made, and ZTO Shanghai was among the first few logistics companies to resume operations in early-May. China is committed to the containment of the virus and a steady economic growth at the same time. We are hopeful to see a carefully staged rebound underway through supportive central policies and coordinated local efforts. We believe the foundation for China’s economic growth is sound, and even though prevention will become part of a daily norm, being an integral part of people’s day-to-day lives, express delivery industry will continue to be the catalyst of the economic expansion as well as benefiting from it”
Ms. Huiping Yan, Chief Financial Officer of ZTO, commented, “Despite various headwinds, ZTO delivered a solid quarterly performance. The adjusted net income grew 34.9% to 1.1 billion with enhanced profit margin. Our core express delivery ASP went up by 8.5% as competition became more sensible. The 2.3% increase of combined unit sorting and transportation cost resulted from weaker volume due to the Omicron lockdowns was temporary. Our operating cost structure is healthy and will provide unsurpassed scale leverage as volume return to normal.”
Ms. Yan added, “Cash flow from operating activities increased 131.8% to 1.1 billion. Capital spending was 1.8 billion. As part of the digitization effort to improve operating efficiencies, the volume-cost-profit initiatives have started to show positive results. Detailed data enabled process monitoring, and analyses are made to find, solve, or prevent problems. Suitable pricing and optimal use of resources can provide us greater leverage to dial up volume in-take while ensuring profitability across all segments of operations including those of our network partners.”

Line haul transportation cost was RMB2,954.0 million (US$466.0 million), an increase of 16.6% from RMB2,533.9 million in the same period last year. The unit transportation cost remained flat given the sharp increase in fuel costs yet offset by continued transportation cost efficiency gain derived mainly from higher mix of high-capacity trailer trucks of our fleet and improved load rate from better route planning.

Sorting hub operating cost was RMB1,880.4 million (US$296,6 million), an increase of 24.4% from RMB1,511.4 million in the same period last year.

The increase was mainly consisted of increases of (i) RMB76.2 million (US$12.0 million) in tax surcharge as previous round of Covid-19 relief policies expired, (ii) RMB69.6 million (US$11.0 million) in costs serving enterprise customers, and (iii) RMB47.5 million (US$7.5 million) in information technology and related costs.
Gross Profit was RMB1,619.5 million (US$255.5 million), increased 47.7% from RMB1,096.5million in the same period last year as a result of both volume and ASP increase at a higher rate than cost increase. Gross margin rate improved to 20.5% from 16.9% for the same period last year.
Total Operating Expenses were RMB503.2 million (US$79.4 million), compared to RMB463.7million in the same period last year.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were RMB618.2 million (US$97.5 million), decreased by 0.3% from RMB620.2 million in the same period last year, mainly due to the decrease of share-based compensation expense.
Other operating income, net was RMB115.0 million (US$18.1 million), compared to RMB156.6 million in the same period last year, and consisted mainly of (i) RMB68.3 million (US$10.8 million) of VAT super deduction and (ii) government subsidies and tax rebates of RMB49.9 million (US$7.9 million).

Income tax expenses were RMB255.2 million (US$40.3 million) compared to RMB149.6 million in the same period last year. Overall income tax rate increased by 2.9 percentage points this quarter compared to same period last year as a result of higher mix of taxable income generated by local operating entities which are subject to the full 25% tax rate compared than the 15% preferential rate granted to one of our headquarter entities for its High and New Technology Enterprise qualification.
Net income was RMB875.5 million (US$138.1 million), which increased by 64.1% from RMB533.5 million in the same period last year.

Business Outlook
Taking into account the current market conditions and the uncertainties associated with COVID-19, the Company revises its annual parcel volume projection to be in the range of 24.96 billion to 25.86 billion, representing a 12% to 16% increase year over year. Relative to the entire industry performance, the Company is confident to achieve one percentage point or more increase in its market share for the entire year. These estimates represent management’s current and preliminary view, which are subject to change.
Company Share Purchase
On November 14, 2018, the Company announced a share repurchase program whereby ZTO was authorized to repurchase its own Class A ordinary shares in the form of ADSs with an aggregate value of up to US$500 million during an 18-month period thereafter. On March 13, 2021, the board of directors of the Company approved the extension of the active share repurchase program to June 30, 2021. On March 31, 2021, the board of directors has approved changes to the share repurchase program, increasing the aggregate value of shares that may be repurchased from US$500 million to US$1 billion and extending the effective time by two years through June 30, 2023. The Company expects to fund the repurchases out of its existing cash balance. As of March 31, 2022, the Company has purchased an aggregate of 36,074,242 ADSs at an average purchase price of US$25.21, including repurchase commissions.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company uses EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, adjusted net income attributable to ordinary shareholders and adjusted basic and diluted earnings per American depositary share, each a non-GAAP financial measure, in evaluating ZTO’s operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes.
Reconciliations of the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures to its U.S. GAAP financial measures are shown in tables at the end of this earnings release, which provide more details about the non-GAAP financial measures.
The Company believes that EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, adjusted net income attributable to ordinary shareholders and adjusted basic and diluted earnings per American depositary share help identify underlying trends in ZTO’s business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of the expenses and gains that the Company includes in income from operations and net income. The Company believes that EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, adjusted net income attributable to ordinary shareholders and adjusted basic and diluted earnings per American depositary share provide useful information about its operating results, enhance the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by ZTO’s management in its financial and operational decision-making.
EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, adjusted net income attributable to ordinary shareholders and adjusted basic and diluted earnings per American depositary share should not be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to net income or any other measure of performance or as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance. Investors are encouraged to compare the historical non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, adjusted net income attributable to ordinary shareholders and adjusted basic and diluted earnings per American depositary share presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures to ZTO’s data. ZTO encourages investors and others to review the Company’s financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
