Mr. Quan Long, Chairman of the Board of Directors ("Board") and Chief Executive Officer of Autohome, stated, "We are very proud of Autohome's resilient performance throughout the year. In particular, we achieved significant progress in two key areas - content ecosystem construction and exploration of new initiatives. On the content front, we successfully leveraged our big IP brands to promote our video-based strategy, and formed partnerships and organized cross-promotional activities with multiple internet platforms to explore new automotive lifestyle experiences. These creative tactics have comprehensively expanded our user reach. In December 2022, our mobile daily active users grew by 16.1% year-over-year to reach a record high of 54.39 million, according to QuestMobile, further solidifying our leadership position in the industry. Meanwhile, we made huge strides in industrial value chain exploration and promoted in-depth development across our businesses. For example, our OEM customers have responded positively to our new retail model for new energy vehicles ("NEVs") and we continue to expand penetration of our data products for dealer customers. In addition, we further integrated our used car business with TTP Car, Inc. and continuously refined operations to enhance efficiency. Looking ahead, we will continue to build Autohome's one-stop, closed-loop ecosystem, capitalizing on our key strengths while focusing on innovation to propel Autohome to new heights."
Mr. Craig Yan Zeng, Chief Financial Officer of Autohome, added, "We concluded 2022 on a strong note with total revenues for the fourth quarter growing by 11.8% year-over-year, supported by the robust recovery of our media business. We are also thrilled to see our new businesses gaining traction among customers, evidenced by a massive year-over-year increase in revenue generated from NEV brands, where we continue to outperform the market. In addition, the number of our dealer customers for data products in the fourth quarter increased by 26% year-over-year, while for full-year 2022, both the average revenue of data products per dealer store and the average number of data products adopted by each dealer store were up more than 20% compared to 2021. Moreover, given our strong cash balance and healthy cash flow, our Board has approved an amendment to our dividend policy. Starting from 2022, we will pay a fixed amount of no less than RMB500 million in cash dividends, augmenting our ongoing increases in shareholder returns even further. As we step into 2023, we will continue to develop new initiatives targeting long-term healthy growth, while remaining committed to delivering shareholder value."

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement net income presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we use Adjusted Net Income attributable to Autohome, Non-GAAP basic and diluted EPS and earnings per ADS, Adjusted net margin and Adjusted EBITDA as non-GAAP financial measures. We define Adjusted Net Income attributable to Autohome as net income attributable to Autohome excluding share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisition, certain noncontrolling interests adjustments for TTP (starting in the first quarter of 2021 for the first time, which included interest income related to convertible bond investment to TTP that is eliminated in consolidation), investment loss relating to non-operating impact of a write-down of the initial investment in a financial product, and (gain)/loss pickup of equity method investments, and impairment of long-term investments, with all the reconciliation items adjusted for related income tax effects. We define non-GAAP basic and diluted EPS as Adjusted Net Income attributable to Autohome divided by the basic and diluted weighted average number of ordinary shares. We define non-GAAP basic and diluted earnings per ADS as Adjusted Net Income attributable to Autohome divided by the basic and diluted weighted average number of ADSs. We define Adjusted net margin as Adjusted Net Income attributable to Autohome divided by total net revenues. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income attributable to Autohome before income tax expense, depreciation expenses of property and equipment, amortization expenses of intangible assets and share-based compensation expenses. We present these non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by our management to evaluate our operating performance, in addition to net income prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are important to help investors understand our operating and financial performance, compare business trends among different reporting periods on a consistent basis and assess our core operating results, as they exclude certain non-cash charges or items that are non-operating in nature. The use of the above non-GAAP financial measures has certain limitations as they excluded certain items that have been and will continue to be incurred in the future, but such items should be considered in the overall evaluation of our results. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned "Unaudited Reconciliation of non-GAAP and GAAP Results" set forth at the end of this press release.
