  A. Operating Results

 

Overview

 

Scienjoy Holding Corporation (“we” or the “Company”) was originally incorporated on May 2, 2018 as a British Virgin Islands exempted company for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. On May 7, 2020, we consummated the acquisition of Scienjoy Inc. As a result of the business combination, we became the holding company of Scienjoy Inc. and we changed our name from “Wealthbridge Acquisition Limited” to “Scienjoy Holding Corporation.”

 

We are an interactive entertainment leader in the Chinese market and operates platforms on both PC and mobile apps, through which users can enjoy immersive and interactive entertainment live streaming. We had approximately 333.4 million registered users by the end of June 30, 2026, increased from 332.3 million registered users for the year ended December 31, 2025. 

 

We adopt a multi-platform strategy and all platforms are categorized as “SHOW live streaming” in which professional broadcasters provide live streaming entertainment for users primarily in the form of performances (such as singing, dancing, and talk shows). Broadcasters on all platforms have been professionally trained by relevant broadcaster agents to provide more professional content. Despite the similarity in contents, the different platforms adopt different operation strategies, such as, to name a few, different broadcaster policy, events, promotion, and games. We provide a technological infrastructure to enable broadcasters, online users and viewers to interact with each other during live streaming. All platforms can be accessed for free. We mainly derive our revenue from sales of virtual items on the platforms. Users can purchase virtual currency to purchase virtual items for use on the platforms. Users can recharge their virtual currency on the platforms through various online third-party payment platforms, such as WeChat Pay or AliPay.

The Venus Partnership raised total capital of HK$100.0 million, in which another limited partner contributed the remaining HK$55.0 million.

 

On September 2, 2026, the Company entered a sale and purchase agreement (the “SPA” and the transaction as contemplated therein, the “Transaction”), through its wholly-owned subsidiary Scienjoy Innovation Labs Inc. (“Scienjoy Innovation”, incorporated on July 16, 2026), to acquire 239,234,000 ordinary shares (the “Shares”) of Leader Education Limited (“Leader Education”, a listed company on the HKEX), an investment holding company that provides private higher education services in China, from Shuren Education Limited (“Shuren”), Leader Education’s controlling shareholder, for HK$102.69 million. The Shares represent 29.9% of the issued and outstanding share capital of Leader Education.

Key Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations

 

General Factors

 

Development of the mobile live streaming market in China over the past decade has been influenced by a number of macroeconomic and technological factors and trends, including increasing disposable income and demand for cultural and entertainment activities and increased use of the mobile internet. Our business and operating results are affected by general factors affecting China’s entertainment live streaming industry, which may include the following:

 

  ● China’s overall macroeconomic landscape;

 

  ● China’s overall entertainment and mobile entertainment growth;

 

  ● Usage and penetration rate of mobile Internet and mobile payment;

 

  ● Growth and competitive landscape of China’s mobile live streaming market, especially entertainment SHOW live streaming; and

 

  ● Governmental policies affecting China’s live streaming industry;

 

Unfavorable changes in any of these general industry conditions could negatively affect demand for our services and materially and adversely affect its results of operations.

 

Specific Factors

 

While our business is influenced by general factors affecting the mobile live streaming industry in China, we believe our results of operations are more directly affected by company specific factors, including the following major factors:

 

Our ability to retain broadcasters and enhance user experience

 

We continue to improve our operational capability with more attractive contents, such as music, dancing, talk shows, traditional drama, online competitions and offline events, to further enhance user experience. We are offering different content and games to incentivize users to pay for our services. Therefore, quality broadcasters and interesting content are essential to our operations. In order to retain quality broadcasters, we have developed a revenue sharing policy, pursuant to which we share revenue generated on the platforms with talents agencies, which in turn share revenue with broadcasters. Additionally, in order to maintain the quality of broadcasters and service, we are conservative in hiring broadcasters and has adopted strict operation procedures for screening broadcasters before hiring. We primarily work with professional agents to identify and retain new broadcasters. The increasing number of trained broadcasters, who provide better quality performance, also contributes to improved average live streaming revenue per paying user (“ARPPU”) and our paying ratio.

 

Our ability to maintain and expand our user base

 

User base is another key factor for success in the mobile live streaming industry. We endeavor to provide attractive content to keep users on our platforms as long as possible. Our multi-platform strategy attempt to retain users by providing diversified content, promotions and an enhanced user experience.

 

With respect to user base, our mobile live show streaming sector differs from other mobile live streaming sectors such as the pan-entertainment live streaming and game live streaming sector. In live show streaming, each broadcaster interacts in real time with users and therefore the number of users that each broadcaster can entertain at the same period in his/her video room is limited, which provides for a more unique user experience than those found in other live streaming sectors.

 

2

 

 

We continue to seek opportunities to grow our user base and enhance our user engagement. Our ability to do so largely depends on our ability to recruit, train, and retain high quality broadcasters and on our ability to produce high quality content. We also intend to continue to invest in our brand recognition.

 

Our ability to improve innovative technologies

 

The ability to understand market traffic and pair users with suitable broadcasters and associated activities is key for user stickiness and monetization in the mobile show live streaming industry. By using big data analytics to understand individual user behavior and industry trends, we intend to continually adjust our platform to better guide users to appropriate broadcasters as well as to analyze traffic on other sites to select the best methods and targets for user acquisition.

Revenues

 

Our revenues consist of live streaming revenue and technical services revenue. We generate technical services revenue from providing technical development and advisory services, however, we deem the technical services revenue as not material. Our revenue is mostly from the sales of virtual items used in our live streaming business. 

 

Virtual items are categorized as consumable and time-based items. Consumable items, as virtual gift service, are consumed and used by users upon purchase, while time-based virtual items, such as privilege titles, could be used for a fixed period of time. Accordingly, revenue is recognized at the time when the virtual item is delivered and consumed if the virtual item is a consumable item or, in the case of time-based virtual item, recognized ratably over the period each virtual item is made available to the user, which is usually over one to multiple months and does not exceed one year. For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2026, revenue from consumable virtual items represented over 96% of the total net revenue.

As we continue to grow our live streaming business, and enhance our user engagement and expand virtual gifting scenarios to increase users’ willingness to pay, we expect our revenue from the sales of virtual items in our live streaming business to increase.

Revenue: Total revenue decreased to RMB588.1million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from RMB656.4 million in the same period of 2025, primarily caused by decrease of paying users due to competitive landscape of China’s mobile live streaming market, partially offset by an increase of RMB390 in overall ARPPU to RMB 2,908 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from RMB2,518 for the same period of 2025.

The gross margin decreased to 17.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from 18.8% in the same period of 2025 due to higher revenue sharing fees ratio in oversea mobile live streaming market during the six months ended June 30, 2026.

  B. Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Cash Flows and Working Capital

 

The Company sources of liquidity are primarily from the cash earned from its operating activities and proceeds from financing activities. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions which are unrestricted as to withdrawal and use and have original maturities less than three months. Cash and cash equivalents also consist of funds earned from the operating revenues which were held at the third-party platform fund accounts which are unrestricted as to immediate use or withdraw.

 

As of December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2026, RMB301.0 million and RMB321.6 million respectively, were deposited with major financial institutions located in the PRC. Management believes that these financial institutions are of high credit quality and continually monitor the credit worthiness of these financial institutions. Historically, deposits in Chinese banks are secure due to the state policy on protecting depositors’ interests.

 

A majority of the Company’s expense transactions are denominated in RMB and a significant portion of assets and liabilities of the Company and its subsidiaries (including the VIEs) are denominated in RMB. RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. In the PRC certain foreign exchange transactions are required by law to be transacted only by authorized financial institutions at exchange rates set by the PBOC. Remittances in currencies other than RMB by the Companies in China must be processed through the PBOC or other PRC foreign exchange regulatory bodies which require certain supporting documentation in order to effect the remittance.

The Company intends to finance its future working capital requirements and capital expenditures from cash generated from operating activities and funds raised from financing activities. The Company believes that its current cash and cash equivalents, together with its cash generated from operating activities and financing activities, will be sufficient to meet its present anticipated working capital requirements and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months. However, the Company may decide to enhance its liquidity position or increase its cash reserve for future investments or operations through additional capital and finance funding. Issuance of additional equity securities, including convertible debt securities, would dilute the Company earnings per share. The incurrence of debt would divert cash for working capital and capital expenditures to service debt obligations and could result in operating and financial covenants that restrict the Company’s operations and its ability to pay dividends to its shareholders.

 

As a holding company with no material operations of its own, the Company conducts its operations primarily through its PRC subsidiaries and its variable interest entity (VIE) and the VIE’s subsidiaries. The Company is permitted under PRC laws and regulations to provide funding to its PRC subsidiaries in China through capital contributions or loans, subject to the approval of government authorities and limits on the amount of capital contributions and loans.

   

The following table presents the summary of the Company’s cash flow data.

  D. Trend Information

 

Other than as described elsewhere in this report, we are not aware of any trends, uncertainties, demands, commitments or events that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our revenue, income from continuing operations, profitability, liquidity or capital resources, or that would cause our reported financial information not necessarily to be indicative of future operating results or financial condition.

 

  E. Critical Accounting Estimates

 

In preparing the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements we have made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Accounting estimates are deemed critical if they involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty and have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. The following critical accounting estimate was identified for the six months ended June 30, 2026: 

 

Allowance for credit losses: 

 

The Company determines the allowance for credit losses taking into consideration various factors including but not limited to historical collection experience and credit-worthiness of the debtors as well as the age of the individual receivables balance. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of the debtors, and assesses allowance for credit loss on a portfolio basis. When specific debtors are identified as no longer sharing the same risk profile as the current pool, they are removed from the pool and evaluated separately. Accounts receivable is written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the likelihood of collection is not probable. Given the regulatory and tax policy changes for the livestreaming industry starting in the second half of 2025 and accordingly increasing credit risk of our debtors in the livestreaming industry, we provided additional allowance for credit loss for debtors with high risk and delinquent accounts. As a result, our provision for credit loss was RMB133.0 million and RMB132.2 million as of December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2026, respectively. The facts and circumstances of each account may require the Company to use substantial judgment in assessing its collectability. The Company will continue to periodically review the allowance and make necessary adjustments accordingly.

 

A summary of our significant accounting policies which are important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations is set forth in Note 2 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this filing.
