We leverage our technology and ecommerce platform to reach continuing growth in our revenue, GMV and positive operating cash flows. Our revenue grew by approximately 23% in the third quarter of 2022, compared to the third quarter of 2021. During the third quarter of 2022, our GigaCloud 3P GMV continued to increase as a percentage of total GigaCloud Marketplace GMV, demonstrating an increased economies of scale and user base achieved through our current marketplace model.

Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Revenues

Total revenues were $128.0 million in the third quarter of 2022, an increase of 23.4% from $103.7 million in the third quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to an increase in service revenue from GigaCloud 3P and product revenue from GigaCloud 1P, partially offset by the decrease in product revenue from off-platform ecommerce.

  • Service revenue from GigaCloud 3P was $40.5 million in the third quarter of 2022, increased by 45.9% from $27.8 million in the third quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to an increase in transactions in our GigaCloud Marketplace as our marketplace continued to gain scale, and the provision of third-party logistics services to certain existing customers.
  • Product revenue from GigaCloud 1P was $58.2 million in the third quarter of 2022, increased by 30.5% from $44.6 million in the third quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to an increase in number of active buyers and better selection of products catering to buyers’ preference.
  • Product revenue from off-platform ecommerce was $29.3 million in the third quarter of 2022, decreased by 6.4% from $31.3 million in the third quarter of 2021. The decrease was primarily due to an overall decrease in sales on certain third-party off-platform ecommerce as consumer demand slowed down on such third-party off-platform ecommerce.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues was $105.4 million in the third quarter of 2022, increased by 26.3% from $83.5 million in the third quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to the overall increase in our revenue, as well as an increase in staff cost and warehouse cost.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Gross profit was $22.5 million in the third quarter of 2022, increased by 11.6% from $20.2 million in the third quarter of 2021. Gross margin was 17.6% in the third quarter of 2022, compared to 19.5% in the third quarter of 2021.

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses were $18.3 million in the third quarter of 2022, decreased by 5.6% from $19.4 million in the third quarter of 2021.

  • Selling and marketing expenses were $6.8 million in the third quarter of 2022, increased by 30.7% from $5.2 million in the third quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to an increase in sales commission to personnel engaged in selling and marketing activities.
  • General and administrative expenses were $11.5 million in the third quarter of 2022, decreased by 18.8% from $14.2 million in the third quarter of 2021. The decrease was primarily due to share-based compensation attributable to employees involved in general corporate functions and a decrease in professional service expense.

Operating Income

Operating income was $4.2 million in the third quarter of 2022, increased by 423.2% from $0.8 million in the third quarter of 2021.

Income Tax Expenses

Income tax expenses were $2.0 million in the third quarter of 2022, increased by 6.9% from $1.8 million in the third quarter of 2021. The effective income tax rate was higher than the PRC statutory income tax rate of 25%, primarily due to the tax effect of share-based compensation expenses recognized upon the effectiveness of the IPO. Such expenses were considered not deductible in developing its full-year forecast for computing the interim tax provision.

Net Income

Net income was $0.7 million in the third quarter of 2022, compared to net loss of $1.6 million in the third quarter of 2021.

Basic and Diluted Earnings per Share

Basic and diluted earnings per share was $0.01 in the third quarter of 2022, compared to basic and diluted loss per share of $0.19 in the third quarter of 20217.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA was $11.9 million in the third quarter of 2022, compared to $10.0 million in the third quarter of 2021.

Balance Sheet

As of September 30, 2022, the Company had cash of $116.2 million and restricted cash of $1.5 million, compared to $63.2 million and $0.7 million as of December 31, 2021, respectively.

Cash Flow

Net cash provided by operating activities was $23.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $15.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to a decrease in the changes in inventories in the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Net cash used in investing activities was $0.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $1.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021, primarily consisted of cash paid for purchase of property and equipment.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $33.8 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $1.8 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021, primarily consisted of proceeds from the initial public offering.
