| · | Additional information on international business. The Company recognizes
the importance of the international market and is actively pursuing global expansion. The international market encompasses diverse regions,

We have strategically chosen Singapore as the launch point
for our international expansion, given its status as a key hub in Southeast Asia. Our first store in Singapore opened in 2023, and in
the third quarter, we added eight new stores, bringing the total to 45 self-operated stores. We are also actively evaluating opportunities in the United States and other
markets. Given the maturity, saturation, and competitiveness of the U.S. coffee market, we intend to approach our expansion strategy there
with careful consideration and a disciplined execution plan.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net revenues
from Singapore reached RMB91.4 million, while costs and expenses, primarily including store operations, regional expenses, and support
costs incurred at headquarters, totaled approximately RMB167.7 million. We remain committed to investing in our international growth,
although we do not anticipate profitability in this area in the near term. Similar to our strategy in China, the international business
will need to reach significant scale to achieve profitability.

million) in the third quarter of 2024, representing an increase of 38.2% from RMB6,238.3 million in the same quarter of 2023. The increase

percentage of net revenues was 84.7% in the third quarter of 2024, slightly lower than 86.6% in the same quarter of 2023, mainly due to
the decrease in cost of materials as a percentage of net revenues resulting from the changes in product matrix provided to consumers in

in the third quarter of 2024, representing an increase of 24.9% from RMB3,166.6 million in

increase in sales of materials to partnership stores. |
| · | Store
rental and other operating costs were RMB2,284.9
million (US$325.9 million) in the third quarter of 2024, representing an increase of 60.3%
from RMB1,425.5 million in the same quarter of 2023, mainly due to the increase in labor
costs, store rental as well as utilities and other store operating costs as a result of the

period last year. |
| · | Depreciation
and amortization expenses were RMB309.7 million
(US$44.2 million) in the third quarter of 2024, representing an increase of 93.5% from RMB160.1
million in the same quarter of 2023, mainly due to the increase in amortization of leasehold
improvements for the stores and the increase in depreciation expenses of additional equipment
put into use in new stores in the third quarter of 2024. |
| · | Delivery
expenses were RMB927.7 million (US$132.3 million) in the third quarter of 2024, representing

2024, representing an increase of 53.2% from RMB384.4 million in the same quarter of 2023,
mainly driven by the increase in (i) advertising and other promotion expenses as the
Company continued to make strategic investments in its branding through various channels,
and (ii) commissions to third-party delivery platforms. Sales and marketing expenses
amounted to 5.8% of total net revenues in the third quarter of 2024, compared to 5.3% of
total net revenues in the same quarter of 2023. |

and administrative expenses were RMB636.6 million
(US$90.8 million) in the third quarter of 2024, representing an increase of 32.3% from RMB481.3
million in the same quarter of 2023. The increase in general and administrative expenses
was mainly driven by the increase in (i) payroll costs for general and administrative staff, (ii) research
and development expenses, (iii) share-based compensation for restricted share units
and options issued to management and employees, and (iv) expenditures for office supplies.
General and administrative expenses amounted to 6.3% of total net revenues in the third quarter
of 2024, compared to 6.7% of total net revenues in the same quarter of 2023. |
| · | Store
preopening and other expenses were RMB13.5 million
(US$1.9 million) in the third quarter of 2024, representing a decrease of 55.2% from RMB30.1
million in the same quarter of 2023, mainly due to fewer stores preparing to be opened in
the third quarter of 2024 compared to the same quarter of 2023. Store preopening and other
expenses amounted to 0.1% of total net revenues in the third quarter of 2024, compared to
0.4% of total net revenues in the same quarter of 2023. |

Restructuring were negative RMB102.5 million (US$14.6 million)

to receive excess layers compensation of US$15.0 million (approximately RMB105.2 million) under its Directors & Officers
Liability and Company Reimbursement Insurance (the “D&O Insurance”), following the receipt of a base layer
compensation. Losses and expenses related to Fabricated Transactions and Restructuring amounted to negative 1.0% of total net

Income
tax expenses was RMB352.7 million (US$50.3 million) in the third quarter of 2024, compared to
income tax benefit of RMB82.6 million in the same quarter of 2023. In the third quarter of 2023, as a certain number of the Company’s
operation entities have turned cumulative profits from cumulative losses, in accordance to relevant accounting standards, the Company
re-evaluated the realization of deferred tax assets given the largely reduced uncertainty of the Company’s business performance.
As a result, a certain amount of the valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets was released. Excluding the release of
valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets, income tax expense was approximately RMB169.5 million in the third quarter of 2023.
Income tax expenses increased by RMB183.2 million in the third quarter when compared to the income tax expenses of RMB169.5 million in
the same period of 2023, which was mainly due to the increased profits earned in the third quarter.

of RMB988.0 million, or a net margin of 13.7%, in the same quarter of 2023. Non-GAAP net income was RMB1,400.8 million
(US$199.8 million) in the third quarter of 2024, representing a non-GAAP net margin of 13.8%, compared to RMB1,144.0 million, or a
non-GAAP net margin of 15.9%, in the same quarter of 2023.
Basic
and diluted net income per ADS was RMB4.08 (US$0.56) and RMB4.08 (US$0.56) in the third quarter
of 2024, respectively, compared to basic and diluted net income per ADS of RMB3.12 and RMB3.12 in the same quarter of 2023, respectively.
Non-GAAP
basic and diluted net income per ADS was RMB4.40 (US$0.64) and RMB4.40 (US$0.64) in the third
quarter of 2024, respectively, compared to non-GAAP basic and diluted net income of RMB3.60 and RMB3.60 in the same quarter of 2023,
respectively.

cash provided by operating activities was RMB1,316.1 million (US$187.7 million) in the third
quarter of 2024, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of RMB1,310.1 million in the same quarter of 2023.
Cash
and cash equivalents, restricted cash, term deposits and short-term investments were RMB4,753.2
million (US$678.0 million) as of September 30, 2024, compared to RMB3,752.7 million as of December 31, 2023. The increase was

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
In
evaluating the business, the Company considers and uses non-GAAP operating income/(loss) and non-GAAP
net income/(loss), each a non-GAAP financial measure, in reviewing and assessing the Company’s operating performance. 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 Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”
or “GAAP”). The Company presents these non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by the Company’s management
to evaluate operating performance and formulate business plans. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures help identify
underlying trends in the Company’s business, provide further information about the Company’s results of operations and enhance
the overall understanding of the Company’s past performance and future prospects.
The non-GAAP financial measures are
not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical
tools. The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures do not reflect all items of income and expense that affect the Company’s
operations and do not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. Furthermore, these non-GAAP measures
may differ from the non-GAAP information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be
limited. The Company compensates for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance
measure, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company’s performance. The Company encourages investors and others
to review the Company’s financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
The
Company defines non-GAAP operating income/(loss) as operating income/(loss) excluding share-based
compensation expenses, non-GAAP net income/(loss) as net income/(loss) excluding recurring item of share-based compensation expenses
and non-recurring item of provision for equity litigants, and non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to the Company’s ordinary
shareholders as net income/(loss) attributable to the Company’s ordinary shareholders excluding recurring item of share-based compensation
expenses and non-recurring item of provision for equity litigants.
For more information on the non-GAAP
financial measures, please see the table captioned “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures to the Most Directly Comparable GAAP Measures”
set forth at the end of this earnings release.
