Zoomcar Reports Significant Profitability Improvement in its Second Quarter Financial 2024 Results

Finanznachrichten News

BANGALORE, India, Nov. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Zoomcar Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZCAR) ('Zoomcar,' or 'we,' or 'our'), the leading marketplace for car sharing in India, today announced results for its second quarter ended September 30, 2024.

Hiroshi Nishijima, CEO of Zoomcar stated, "By making customer experience our top priority, we've been able to organically boost guest repeat bookings and improve host retention. This focus has allowed us to optimize costs, particularly in marketing spend, cash incentives, and discounts, driving a significant improvement in our contribution profit. With a stronger contribution margin, our primary goal is now to grow the number of bookings by bringing in more Guests and achieving more frequent repeat usage. Despite shorter average booking durations, our contribution margin remains robust, making the total number of bookings our most critical metric."

Key Highlights:

  1. Net loss per share significantly declined for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 to $4.43 per share as compared to $2,568.82 per share during the same quarter last year.
  2. Contribution profit reached a record high of $1.21 million (54% of revenue), a significant improvement from a loss of $0.12 million (-5%) in the same quarter last year and $0.46 million (20%) in the previous quarter.
  3. The number of bookings rose by 7%, from 97,970 in the previous quarter to 105,160, in the quarter ended September 30, 2024, driven by 1.5x increase in the guest repeat booking rate.
  4. Cost optimization efforts resulted in a 55% reduction in repair and maintenance costs, a 52% reduction in technology expenses (such as cloud services), and an 81% decrease in marketing costs. All reductions are a comparison of the quarter ended September 30, 2024 vs the same quarter last year.
  5. Adjusted EBITDA loss decreased significantly to $1.47 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 as compared to $3.87 million for the same quarter last year.
  6. Average Guest trip ratings saw a significant improvement, rising from 4.16 (out of 5) on March 31, 2024, to 4.70 on June 30, 2024. We are maintaining the improved ratings at 4.63 on September 30, 2024, reflecting our ongoing commitment to enhancing the customer experience.
  7. Active high quality cars (with an average rating of more than 4.5 out of 5) increased by 6% from 5,516 cars for the previous quarter to 5,830 cars for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, signaling the improvement of Host retention rate.

We will have a deeper discussion in our Q2 2024 Earnings call:

Forward Looking Statement:

Certain statements contained in this press release are not historical facts and may be forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as "plans," "expects," "believes," "anticipates," and similar words are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements concerning our expected revenue growth and improved profitability, and our financial forecasts. Forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and beliefs, and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict and that could cause actual results to differ materially from those stated or implied by the forward-looking statements. A description of certain of these risks, uncertainties and other matters can be found in filings we make with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, all of which are available at www.sec.gov. Because forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, actual results and events may differ materially from results and events currently expected by us, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to publicly update these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that occur after the date hereof or to reflect any change in its expectations with regard to these forward-looking statements or the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure:

To supplement our financial statements, which are presented on the basis of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the following non-GAAP measures of financial performance are included in this release: contribution margin, and adjusted EBITDA. A reconciliation of GAAP to adjusted non-GAAP financial measures is included as an attachment to this press release. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in assessing our operating performance. We use these financial measures internally to evaluate our operating performance and for planning and forecasting of future periods. We also believe it is in the best interests of investors to provide this non-GAAP information. While we believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors, there are limitations associated with the use of these non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be reported by competitors, and they may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies due to differences in calculation methodologies. The non-GAAP financial measures are not an alternative to GAAP information and are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP financial measures. They should be used only as a supplement to GAAP information and should be considered only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
