Second Quarter 2024 Financial and Operational Highlights
Total net revenues in the second quarter of 2024 were RMB2,764.3 million (US$380.4 million), an increase of 34.1% from RMB2,062.0 million in the same period of 2023.
Net income in the second quarter of 2024 was RMB840.5 million (US$115.7 million), an increase of 38.0% from RMB609.0 million in the same period of 2023.
Non-GAAP adjusted net income[1] in the second quarter of 2024 was RMB970.9 million (US$133.6 million), an increase of 34.3% from RMB722.7 million in the same period of 2023.
Fulfilled orders[2]in the second quarter of 2024 reached 49.1 million, an increase of 22.0% from 40.2 million in the same period of 2023.
Average shipper MAUs[3] in the second quarter of 2024 reached 2.65 million, an increase of 32.8% from 2.00 million in the same period of 2023.
Mr. Peter Hui Zhang, Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of FTA, commented, “We are pleased to see our team’s unwavering commitment to user centricity in the first half of 2024 despite pressure from macroeconomic challenges and extreme weather conditions. In the second quarter, we made steady progress across the board and delivered a strong operational and financial performance. Focusing on the core of our product and business from the user’s perspective has empowered consistent execution excellence. As a result, our shipper-user scale reached an all-time high. Meanwhile, we enhanced the infrastructure serving our truck-cargo matching system, driving continuous order structure improvement and a steady increase in fulfillment rate. As we move into the second half of the year, we are confident of achieving progress in various businesses and maintaining growth in both scale and profits.”
Mr. Simon Cai, Chief Financial Officer of FTA, added, “We delivered another set of robust financial results in the second quarter with growth in both top line and bottom line. Total net revenues increased by 34.1% year over year to RMB2,764.3 million, while net income and non-GAAP adjusted net income soared by 38.0% and 34.3% to reach RMB840.5 million and RMB970.9 million, respectively. More importantly, as we enhance the value of our platform’s ecosystem, our transaction service is rapidly realizing its monetization potential, with revenues under this model growing more than 60% year over year this quarter. Looking ahead, we see significant potential for user scale and monetization growth. We seek to continue seizing those opportunities by improving service quality and creating greater user value.”
[1] Non-GAAP adjusted net income is defined as net income excluding (i) share-based compensation expense; (ii) amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions; (iii) compensation cost incurred in relation to acquisitions; and (iv) tax effects of non-GAAP adjustments. See “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and “Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results” at the end of this press release.
[2] Fulfilled orders on our platform in a given period are defined as all shipping orders matched through our platform during such period but exclude (i) shipping orders that are subsequently canceled and (ii) shipping orders for which our users failed to specify any freight prices, as there are substantial uncertainties as to whether such shipping orders are fulfilled.
[3] Average shipper MAUs in a given period are calculated by dividing (i) the sum of shipper MAUs for each month of a given period by (ii) the number of months in a given period. Shipper MAUs are defined as the number of active shippers on our platform in a given month. Active shippers are defined as the aggregate number of registered shipper accounts that have posted at least one shipping order on our platform during a given period.
Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results
Net Revenues (including value added taxes, or “VAT,” of RMB953.0 million and RMB1,255.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024, respectively). Total net revenues in the second quarter of 2024 were RMB2,764.3 million (US$380.4 million), representing an increase of 34.1% from RMB2,062.0 million in the same period of 2023, primarily attributable to an increase in revenues from freight matching services.
Freight matching services. Revenues from freight matching services in the second quarter of 2024 were RMB2,328.7 million (US$320.4 million), representing an increase of 34.4% from RMB1,732.2 million in the same period of 2023. The increase was mainly due to a significant increase in transaction service[4] and the continued growth in freight brokerage service.
Freight brokerage service. Revenues from freight brokerage service in the second quarter of 2024 were RMB1,164.8 million (US$160.3 million), an increase of 22.7% from RMB948.9 million in the same period of 2023, primarily attributable to an increase in transaction volume due to the continued growth in user demand.
Freight listing service. Revenues from freight listing service in the second quarter of 2024 were RMB212.1 million (US$29.2 million), an increase of 5.6% from RMB200.8 million in the same period of 2023, primarily due to a growing number of total paying members.
Transaction service.[4] Revenues from transaction service amounted to RMB951.9 million (US$131.0 million) in the second quarter of 2024, an increase of 63.4% from RMB582.5 million in the same period of 2023, primarily driven by an increase in order volume, penetration rate, and the per-order transaction service fee.
Value-added services. Revenues from value-added services in the second quarter of 2024 were RMB435.6 million (US$59.9 million), an increase of 32.0% from RMB329.9 million in the same period of 2023. The increase was due to the growing demand from truckers and shippers for credit solutions and other value-added services.
Cost of Revenues (including VAT net of government grants of RMB774.9 million and RMB992.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024, respectively). Cost of revenues in the second quarter of 2024 was RMB1,312.1 million (US$180.5 million), compared with RMB975.3 million in the same period of 2023. The increase was primarily due to increases in VAT, related tax surcharges and other tax costs, net of grants from government authorities. These tax-related costs net of government grants totaled RMB1,176.3 million, representing an increase of 33.8% from RMB879.3 million in the same period of 2023, primarily due to an increase in transaction activities involving the Company’s freight brokerage service.
Sales and Marketing Expenses. Sales and marketing expenses in the second quarter of 2024 were RMB372.3 million (US$51.2 million), compared with RMB281.8 million in the same period of 2023. The increase was primarily due to an increase in advertising and marketing expenses for user acquisitions, as well as higher salary and benefits expenses.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses in the second quarter of 2024 were RMB219.2 million (US$30.2 million), compared with RMB201.7 million in the same period of 2023. The increase was primarily due to higher share-based compensation expenses.
Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses in the second quarter of 2024 were RMB232.1 million (US$31.9 million), compared with RMB223.7 million in the same period of 2023. The increase was primarily due to higher share-based compensation expenses and increased investment in technology infrastructure.

Non-GAAP Adjusted Operating Income.[5] Non-GAAP adjusted operating income in the second quarter of 2024 was RMB699.0 million (US$96.2 million), an increase of 55.1% from RMB450.7 million in the same period of 2023.
Net Income. Net income in the second quarter of 2024 was RMB840.5 million (US$115.7 million), an increase of 38.0% from RMB609.0 million in the same period of 2023.

Basic and Diluted Net Income per ADS[6] and Non-GAAP Adjusted Basic and Diluted Net Income per ADS.[7] Basic and diluted net income per ADS were RMB0.79 (US$0.11) in the second quarter of 2024, compared with RMB0.57 in the same period of 2023. Non-GAAP adjusted basic net income per ADS was RMB0.92 (US$0.13) in the second quarter of 2024, compared with RMB0.68 in the same period of 2023. Non-GAAP adjusted diluted net income per ADS was RMB0.91 (US$0.13) in the second quarter of 2024, compared with RMB0.68 in the same period of 2023.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
As of June 30, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term investments, long-term time deposits and wealth management products with maturities over one year of RMB26.8 billion (US$3.7 billion) in total, compared with RMB27.6 billion as of December 31, 2023.
As of June 30, 2024, the total outstanding balance of on-balance sheet loans, consisting of the total principal amounts and all accrued and unpaid interests of the loans funded through our small loan company, reduced by an allowance for estimated losses, was RMB3,997.1 million (US$550.0 million), compared with RMB3,521.1 million as of December 31, 2023. The total non-performing loan ratio[8] for these loans was 2.1% as of June 30, 2024, compared with 2.0% as of December 31, 2023.
In the second quarter of 2024, net cash provided by operating activities was RMB573.7 million (US$78.9 million).
[4] Effective January 1, 2024, we have renamed our “Transaction commission” revenue stream as “Transaction service,” which consists of all monetization from truckers related to our freight matching service, including the revenue generated from our intra-city business, which was previously classified under “Freight listing service” and “Value-added services.” The comparative periods have been restated to conform to this presentation by reclassifying RMB26.4 million and RMB1.0 million, which were previously included in “Freight listing service” and “Value-added services,” respectively, as “Transaction service”.
[5] Non-GAAP adjusted operating income is defined as income from operations excluding (i) share-based compensation expense; (ii) amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions; and (iii) compensation cost incurred in relation to acquisitions. See “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and “Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results” at the end of this press release.
[6] ADS refers to American depositary shares, each of which represents 20 Class A ordinary shares.
[7] Non-GAAP adjusted basic and diluted net income per ADS is net income attributable to ordinary shareholders excluding (i) share-based compensation expense; (ii) amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions; (iii) compensation cost incurred in relation to acquisitions; and (iv) tax effects of non-GAAP adjustments, divided by weighted average number of basic and diluted ADSs, respectively. For more information, refer to “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and “Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results” at the end of this press release.
[8] Non-performing loan ratio is calculated by dividing the outstanding principal and all accrued and unpaid interests of the on-balance sheet loans that were over 90 calendar days past due (excluding loans that are over 180 days past due and are therefore charged off) by the total outstanding principal and all accrued and unpaid interests of the on-balance sheet loans (excluding loans that are over 180 days past due and are therefore charged off) reduced by an allowance for estimated losses as of a specified date.
Business Outlook
The Company expects its total net revenues to be between RMB2.76 billion and RMB2.82 billion for the third quarter of 2024, representing a year-over-year growth rate of approximately 21.9% to 24.6%. These forecasts reflect the Company’s current and preliminary views on the market and operational conditions, which are subject to change and cannot be predicted with reasonable accuracy as of the date hereof.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company uses non-GAAP adjusted operating income, non-GAAP adjusted net income, non-GAAP adjusted net income attributable to ordinary shareholders, non-GAAP adjusted basic and diluted net income per share and non-GAAP adjusted basic and diluted net income per ADS, each a non-GAAP financial measure, as supplemental measures to review and assess its operating performance.
The presentation of 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 U.S. GAAP. The Company defines non-GAAP adjusted operating income as income from operations excluding (i) share-based compensation expense; (ii) amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions; (iii) compensation cost incurred in relation to acquisitions. The Company defines non-GAAP adjusted net income as net income excluding (i) share-based compensation expense; (ii) amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions; (iii) compensation cost incurred in relation to acquisitions; and (iv) tax effects of non-GAAP adjustments. The Company defines non-GAAP adjusted net income attributable to ordinary shareholders as net income attributable to ordinary shareholders excluding (i) share-based compensation expense; (ii) amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions; (iii) compensation cost incurred in relation to acquisitions; and (iv) tax effects of non-GAAP adjustments. The Company defines non-GAAP adjusted basic and diluted net income per share as non-GAAP adjusted net income attributable to ordinary shareholders divided by weighted average number of basic and diluted ordinary shares, respectively. The Company defines non-GAAP adjusted basic and diluted net income per ADS as non-GAAP adjusted net income attributable to ordinary shareholders divided by the weighted average number of basic and diluted ADSs, respectively.
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 an analytical tool. The non-GAAP financial measures do not reflect all items of expense that affect its operations. Share-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions, compensation cost incurred in relation to acquisitions and tax effects of non-GAAP adjustments have been and may continue to be incurred in its business and are not reflected in the presentation of its non-GAAP financial measures.
The Company reconciles the non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measures. Non-GAAP adjusted operating income, non-GAAP adjusted net income, non-GAAP adjusted net income attributable to ordinary shareholders and non-GAAP adjusted basic and diluted net income per share should not be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to operating income, net income, net income attributable to ordinary shareholders and basic and diluted net income per share or any other measure of performance or as an indicator of its operating performance. Investors are encouraged to review FTA’s non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. FTA’s non-GAAP financial measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

Caladium Systems Launches Happiffie, India’s First AI-powered Celebration Platform
Published
46 minutes agoon
July 24, 2026By
CHENNAI, India, July 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Caladium Systems today announced the launch of Happiffie, India’s first AI-powered Celebration Growth Platform, introducing a smarter way for customers to discover, compare, book, and manage celebrations while helping businesses connect with high-intent customers through intelligent technology.
Designed for weddings, birthdays, corporate events, social celebrations, parties, festivals, and more, Happiffie brings together over 400 celebration occasions and 1,000+ celebration experiences on a single AI-powered platform.
India’s celebrations industry continues to rely heavily on referrals, manual coordination, inconsistent pricing, and fragmented vendor discovery. Happiffie addresses these challenges by combining AI-powered recommendations, transparent price discovery, secure bookings, payments, and event management into one seamless platform.
A key innovation is Happiffie’s Reverse Auction, where customers simply submit their celebration requirements and verified vendors compete by offering customised proposals. Instead of spending hours searching and negotiating, customers can compare multiple qualified offers and choose the vendor that best matches their preferences and budget.
“Customers can now book the experience of their choice with the vendor of their choice, in the budget of their choice. At the same time, vendors receive qualified business opportunities matched to their category, location and capabilities, creating value for both sides of the marketplace,” said Pradhyumna T Venkat, Founder & CEO, Happiffie.
“Every major industry eventually reaches a point where technology fundamentally changes how it operates. Travel did. Hospitality did. Mobility did. We believe celebrations are next,” added Pradhyumna.
The platform is powered by Experience Intelligence™, a proprietary framework that combines over 15 years of celebration industry expertise with Artificial Intelligence to deliver smarter recommendations based on customer intent, preferences, and celebration needs.
Whether planning a wedding, birthday, corporate event, baby shower, anniversary, or festival celebration, customers can manage the entire journey—from vendor discovery and quotations to payments and execution—through a single platform.
Alongside its launch, Happiffie has opened registrations for vendor partners across Chennai and Tamil Nadu, with a phased expansion planned across India. The platform aims to build one of the country’s largest AI-powered celebration ecosystems, helping businesses generate qualified leads and grow more efficiently.
“Our vision is not simply to build another marketplace but to create the technology infrastructure that powers celebrations. Reverse Auction is the first step towards building a smarter, more transparent, and AI-driven celebration economy that benefits both customers and businesses alike,” added Pradhyumna.
Built on the experience of planning and executing over 5,000 weddings and celebrations, Happiffie combines deep industry expertise with AI to simplify celebration planning and transform how India celebrates.
For more information, visit www.happiffie.com. Vendor registrations are now open at www.happiffie.com/vendor-registration.

Beko Publishes 2025 Integrated Report, Charting Years of Progress Toward Net Zero
Published
46 minutes agoon
July 24, 2026By
As Beko releases its 2025 Integrated Report, the company’s third consecutive inclusion on TIME’s global sustainability ranking — retaining the #1 position in its industry — underscores the progress documented within it.
ISTANBUL, July 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Beko published its 2025 Integrated Report, offering a comprehensive account of the company’s financial, environmental and social performance over the past year. In parallel, Beko has been named one of TIME Magazine’s World’s Most Sustainable Companies for the third year running, retaining the #1 position in its industry. The recognition, awarded in partnership with Statista, independently corroborates years of deliberate, measurable progress.
The report documents concrete results across Beko’s global manufacturing footprint. In 2025:
Energy efficiency projects across production sites saved 69,562 GJ of energy, avoiding 5,297 tonnes of CO₂e emissions.Waste recycling across all manufacturing facilities reached 98.6%, against a target of 99%.Renewable energy installed capacity reached 96 MWp, up from 90.2 MWp the prior year. Beko also reached 63.5% green electricity on the path to 100% across all manufacturing by 2030.Water efficiency and rainwater harvesting projects across locations delivered total water savings of 219,114 m3.
Behind these figures is a broader manufacturing transformation. Three of Beko’s manufacturing facilities have been recognised within the World Economic Forum’s Global Lighthouse Network, with the Ulmi plant earning the additional, and rarer, designation of Sustainability Lighthouse. The principles behind Ulmi’s approach are being extended across Beko’s broader manufacturing ecosystem, as the company scales low-impact production. Beko currently operates 13 smart factories globally — equipped with artificial intelligence, machine learning and robotics capabilities — with a target of 17 by the end of 2026.
On the circular economy side, Beko’s refurbishment centres across multiple locations reintroduced more than 148,000 appliances into the market in 2025 alone. The company recycled 1.98 million WEEE units through its own recycling facilities since 2014, and used 31,665 tonnes of recycled plastics in its products in 2025.
Across its product portfolio, 72.6% of Beko’s turnover in 2025 came from low-carbon products — a figure that reflects both the scale of the company’s energy-efficient product range and growing consumer demand for appliances that address environmental concerns.
“Being recognised by TIME three years in a row matters because it reflects that sustainability is a foundational part of Beko’s business,” said Can Dinçer, CEO of Beko. “Our factories undergo a twin transformation where we encounter both decarbonization and digitalization. That progress is deliberate and measurable, and our Integrated Report sets out exactly how. As the world prepares for COP31, the most credible thing a company can do is demonstrate its work rather than declare it. That is what we are doing.”
TIME’s annual list evaluates more than 5,000 companies worldwide across environmental and social performance, transparency and ESG reporting. Beko’s continued inclusion under increasingly rigorous standards points to a business model where sustainability is structurally embedded across operations, supply chains and product portfolios.
In addition to its Integrated Report, the Company has also published its second TSRS-compliant sustainability report, prepared in accordance with the Türkiye Sustainability Reporting Standards (TSRS), Türkiye’s adoption of the IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards issued by the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB). The report is publicly available and provides detailed disclosures on the company’s climate-related risks, opportunities, governance, strategy and performance.

JustMarkets Releases Market Analysis on How Foreign Exchange Markets React to CPI Surprises
Published
46 minutes agoon
July 24, 2026By
HO CHI MINH CITY, Vietnam, July 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — JustMarkets today released a new market analysis examining how foreign exchange markets react to Consumer Price Index (CPI) surprises and outlining key considerations for traders preparing for inflation data releases. The analysis explains why the gap between actual CPI data and market expectations, rather than the headline inflation figure itself, is often the primary driver of currency market movements.
What people often miss on CPI day is that the number itself isn’t what moves the market. The common reaction is to check whether the headline number is high or low, but it’s all priced in advance. According to JustMarkets, the real driver of EUR/USD is the gap between the actual number and what the market was positioned for.
Even an unchanged reading can cause dollar weakness if traders expect higher inflation, while weaker numbers that beat consensus expectations may drive dollar strength. Citing Federal Reserve research, the price driver is a surprise component rather than the headline.
Why the Expectation Gap Is More Important Than the Level
Forex is driven by expectations for interest rate decisions, with inflation impacting central bank policy. Key factors influencing this reaction include:
Main factors:
Monthly CPI and core CPICore services inflationRevisions to the previous period dataCentral banks policy pricing
Year-over-year data is less important in terms of price impact than monthly and core data.
How to Calculate Surprise
Start with the simplest metric: Surprise = Actual CPI − Consensus CPI.
Consensus comes from the economic calendar’s forecast and reflects the market positioning. And then you need to check the market reaction through rates. The sequence typically runs: CPI surprise → change in front-end yields → USD movement → the sentiment adjustment.
Traders frequently employ this methodology in combination with the JustMarkets Economic Calendar to track high-impact releases in real time.
What the Intraday Move Actually Looks Like
CPI reactions usually happen in three stages. The first one is a headline shock with the potential algorithm’s reaction within a few seconds. Then comes the interpretation stage, with a time frame of 15-60 minutes and analysis of core numbers and yield confirmation. And then either continuation or reversal happens.
Approaches to Trading CPI Day
There are two common approaches to CPI.
The momentum approach requires the consistency of headlines and core surprises with yields’ confirmation. Most traders wait until the first minute’s candle is closed to avoid false signals.The fade approach requires dislocations like the absence of yield confirmation to FX movement or dislocations between headlines and core numbers. In this case, traders wait 10−20 minutes for exhaustion of the initial move and reversal setup search.
Risk management is crucial. Most traders limit their position size to 0.25%-0.50% of their equity because of widening spreads and slippage. Sometimes the decision to trade off is more optimal during extreme volatility than forced entry.
One Way to Prepare for the Next CPI Day Release
A simple way to get ready is to monitor EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY pairs and an economic calendar with events’ importance. The workflow is simple: Economic calendar → release → Trading platform.
The final step brings traders to the execution platform. Many turn to JustMarkets, which offers CFDs on these currency pairs, with execution stability and fast market access that make it well suited for high-volatility macro events.
