Principais Destaques

• Os pedidos concluídos aumentaram 12,7% em relação ao ano anterior, atingindo 68,5 milhões, enquanto a média de usuários ativos mensais de embarcadores subiu 12,8%, para 3,57 milhões.
• A receita líquida total cresceu 4,4%, para RMB 3,38 bilhões. A receita de serviços de transação saltou 33,1%, para RMB 1,77 bilhão, representando 52% da receita líquida total.
• O lucro líquido subiu 6,3%, para RMB 1,35 bilhão, enquanto o lucro líquido ajustado não GAAP aumentou 6,0%, para RMB 1,43 bilhão.
• A taxa de atendimento atingiu o recorde de 47%, uma alta de 6,3 pontos percentuais na comparação anual e de 2,9 pontos percentuais na trimestral. O tempo de correspondência de pedidos caiu para 5 minutos pela primeira vez.
• O caixa líquido gerado pelas atividades operacionais atingiu RMB 2,15 bilhões, com fluxo de caixa livre de RMB 2,04 bilhões e uma posição de caixa de RMB 33,4 bilhões no fim do trimestre.
• Os caminhões elétricos responderam por mais de 20% dos pedidos concluídos. A administração espera que a eletrificação da frota beneficie a plataforma, mas prevê restrições relevantes no transporte rodoviário de longa distância não planejado.

Dados Financeiros Principais

Desempenho Operacional e dos Negócios

O crescimento dos pedidos foi impulsionado pela melhoria na qualidade do frete, maior eficiência no atendimento e um aumento na participação de embarcadores diretos. Iniciativas de governança voltadas a pedidos de carona classificados incorretamente, revenda de frete e anúncios de baixo preço melhoraram a autenticidade e a confiabilidade da demanda de frete.

O número de caminhoneiros ativos mensais que responderam a pedidos aumentou quase 5% na comparação anual. A taxa de atendimento para o negócio de longa distância de carga completa subiu quase 7 pontos percentuais, enquanto os pedidos concluídos nesse segmento cresceram mais rápido do que o total de pedidos da plataforma. Os embarcadores diretos registraram uma taxa média de atendimento acima de 65%.

O crescimento dos serviços de transação refletiu uma cobertura de comissões mais ampla e maior monetização por pedido. A Full Truck Alliance concluiu a implementação do modelo de comissão nas cidades elegíveis, elevando a penetração de comissões para 94,7%. A administração afirmou que sua abordagem em níveis considera os ganhos dos caminhoneiros, a aceitação de pedidos, a retenção e o desempenho no atendimento.

O negócio de agenciamento de frete continuou sua transição para uma estrutura de via dupla que combina modelos próprios e agregadores. Os clientes apenas de faturamento caíram para uma participação de um único dígito no volume de transações, enquanto a taxa de retribuição (take rate) de faturamento próprio permaneceu em torno de 10%. O modelo agregador utiliza terceiros qualificados para faturamento e liquidação, com a Full Truck Alliance cobrando uma taxa de serviço de canal na faixa de um único dígito baixo.

Novas iniciativas também avançaram durante o trimestre. A Qmove registrou um rápido crescimento no exterior nos pedidos concluídos e na taxa de atendimento. A empresa alcançou cobertura nacional para sua oferta de carga fracionada, expandiu os pilotos de veículos de entrega autônomos para várias cidades e ampliou a implementação de ferramentas de IA para embarcadores e atendimento ao cliente.

Orientação da Administração

A administração permanece cautelosamente otimista em relação ao crescimento dos pedidos no longo prazo. Preços mais baixos do diesel desde junho devem apoiar uma recuperação gradual da demanda por frete, embora condições macroeconômicas e interrupções relacionadas ao clima possam afetar a atividade no curto prazo.

A empresa espera que a taxa de atendimento mantenha uma trajetória ascendente constante, à medida que aprimora os mecanismos do produto e integra IA na correspondência e no atendimento. Espera-se que a receita de serviços de transação entregue um crescimento sustentável no longo prazo por meio de um maior volume de pedidos, maior monetização por pedido e expansão de novos casos de uso do negócio.

A administração também espera que a geração de caixa no longo prazo se fortaleça à medida que a composição da receita migre para negócios de plataforma "asset-light" e de maior margem. O fluxo de caixa trimestral pode oscilar devido ao cronograma de liquidações, pagamentos de impostos e variações no capital de giro.

Riscos e Pontos de Atenção

• Os preços elevados do diesel do final de março até maio reduziram a demanda por alguns fretes de baixo valor e sensíveis ao preço. Embora os preços dos combustíveis tenham se moderado posteriormente, o mercado de frete rodoviário continua desafiador e sujeito à incerteza macroeconômica.
• Tufões, inundações, terremotos e outros desastres naturais em partes da China podem interromper o envio de fretes e a atividade de transporte no curto prazo.
• Os caminhões elétricos continuam limitados nas operações de longa distância não planejadas devido à autonomia de direção, cobertura de recarga e troca de baterias, perda de capacidade de carga relacionada às baterias e menor flexibilidade de rotas.
• A transição no agenciamento de frete visa reduzir a exposição a riscos de reembolso de IVA, liquidação e operação, mas a empresa está gerenciando essa mudança em fases para atender às exigências dos clientes e de conformidade.

Destaques das Perguntas e Respostas dos Analistas

Crescimento dos pedidos e atendimento: A administração atribuiu o aumento de 12,7% nos pedidos concluídos à maior qualidade do frete, à governança do ecossistema, à melhoria na proteção de pagamentos e à alocação mais eficiente de capacidade. A proteção ao pagamento de frete e o programa de classificação de crédito de caminhoneiros ajudaram a elevar a aceitação e a confiabilidade após a correspondência.

Monetização de transações: A alta de 33,1% na receita de serviços de transação foi sustentada pela penetração de comissão de 94,7%, pela precificação refinada por cidade, rota, tipo de veículo e segmento de usuário, além de casos de uso emergentes adicionais.

Fluxo de caixa: O fluxo de caixa operacional se beneficiou da maior rentabilidade da plataforma principal, da liberação de capital anteriormente retido no negócio de crédito e da gestão eficiente do capital de giro. O negócio de crédito está passando por uma transição para um modelo de distribuição "asset-light".

Adoção de caminhões elétricos: Os caminhões elétricos representaram mais de 20% dos pedidos concluídos e foram descritos como mais competitivos em operações de curta a média distância, locais e de rotas fixas. A administração não espera que eles substituam os caminhões pesados a diesel e gás natural no mercado de longa distância no curto prazo.

[Interpreted] Hello, everyone. Thank you for joining us today for our second quarter 2026 earnings conference call. In the second quarter, despite a challenging market environment, our business delivered resilient growth with fulfilled orders reaching 68.5 million, up 12.7% year-over-year.

Operationally, we remain focused on enhancing user experience and transaction efficiency. By broadening and strengthening transaction protection for both shippers and truckers, we significantly improved the satisfaction across both sides of the platform. Average shipper MAUs reached 3.57 million this quarter, up 12.8% year-over-year, while the number of active truckers fulfilling orders over the past [ 12 ] months continue to grow, further amplifying our nationwide network effect.

Rising order density and trucker capacity lifted the fulfillment rate by 6.3 percentage points year-over-year to 47% with medium freight matching time further shortened. In terms of our new business initiatives, Qmove continued to gain strong momentum overseas with rapid growth in both fulfilled orders and fulfillment rate. We also achieved nationwide coverage for our less than truckload offerings through our network of dedicated line carriers and expanded autonomous delivery vehicle pilots to multiple cities. On AI front, we continued rolling out our shipper AI assistant to a broader user base and fully deployed AI-powered customer service across applicable use cases, further deepening AI applications throughout the fulfillment process.

[Interpreted] Financially, in the quarter, total net revenues reached RMB 3.38 billion, up 4.4% year-over-year. Transaction service revenues grew 33.1% year-over-year to RMB 1.77 billion, accounting for 52% of total net revenues. Net income reached RMB 1.35 billion, up 6.3% year-over-year while non-GAAP adjusted net income increased 6% to RMB 1.43 billion.

Net cash provided by operating activities grew significantly year-over-year to RMB 2.15 billion, contributing to a total cash position of RMB 33.4 billion by end of the quarter. This provides ample liquidity to support the rollout of new business initiatives and execution of our long-term strategy, and we are committed to continuously returning value to shareholders through quarterly cash dividends.

Looking ahead, our comprehensive product portfolio, robust platform ecosystem and expanding 2-sided network give our AI initiatives the fuel they needed.

Transaction data at scale across [indiscernible] practical user cases. We will continue to advance AI innovation and applications across the platform to strengthen our ecosystem, improve the experience for shippers and truckers and create sustainable long-term value for our shareholders.

Thank you all once again. That concludes our opening remarks. I would now like to open the call to Q&A. Operator, please?

Operator

[Operator Instructions] Your first question comes from Ronald Keung with Goldman Sachs.

We'll move on to the next question. Your next question is from Eddy Wang with Morgan Stanley.

Perguntas e respostas

Eddy Wang

[Foreign Language] My question is that given the ongoing fuel price volatility and the rising penetration of electric trucks, do you expect these trends to significantly affect the freight industry's capacity mix and the competitive landscape?

Chong Cai

Thank you, Eddy. This is Simon here. Let me address your question. Our platform data over the past few quarters does show gradually rising penetration of electric trucks, which now accounted for roughly over 20% of our total fulfilled orders. However, we do not expect this shift in the capacity mix to have a material impact on the long-haul full truckload market. Instead, we believe that our diverse energy mix across the truck fleet will benefit our platform ecosystem overall.

First, electric trucks are currently most competitive in short to medium haul and local freight operations. Lower energy costs give them a strong position at ports, mining area and fixed route short to medium haul transportation. While some fast charging and high-capacity battery models can now travel between 400 to 500 kilometers per charge that's up from roughly 200 to 300 kilometers per charge. Their economics still depend heavily on fixed routes, high vehicle utilization and convenient access to charging or battery swapping facilities.

Second, the electrification of ad hoc long-haul trucking still face clear physical and infrastructure hurdles. The average shipping distance for full truckload long-haul transactions on our platform exceeds 500 kilometers, and many of these transactions involve cross-regional transportation, variable routes and uncertain backhaul demand. In these settings, electric trucks are constrained by limited driving range, sparse charging and battery swapping coverage, payload loss from battery weight and reduced route planning flexibility.

As a result, they're not positioned to replace diesel and natural gas power heavy-duty trucks across this market anytime soon. Overall, we believe the evolving mix of truck capacity will create long-term value for our platform. Changes in transportation equipment do not reduce shippers' underlying freight demand. Instead, they allow it to be fulfilled at more competitive freight rates. Our long-term vision is to become a one-stop logistics platform, serving millions of small- and medium-sized direct shippers whose logistics needs are often on-demand, dynamic and fragmented.

As truck capacity becomes more diversified, we can further leverage our vast pool of authentic freight demand, extensive route data and advanced algo to match different powertrain types with the shipping distance and use case -- distance and use cases they are best suited for.

At the same time, by providing complementary services such as truck leasing and purchasing, charging and battery swapping, we can help truckers meaningfully improve vehicle utilization as battery technologies advance and roadside charging and battery swapping infrastructure expand, electric trucks should gradually extend into selected long-haul use cases. We expect our platform to benefit from this ongoing capacity upgrade and create greater value for millions of shippers.

Operator

Your next question will be from Ronald Keung with Goldman Sachs.

Ronald Keung

[Foreign Language] I want to ask about the fulfilled order growth was around 12.7% in the second quarter. So what were the key growth drivers this quarter? And given that the domestic fuel prices have declined significantly from the late kind of end March highs, has the impact on high fuel prices on road freight demand fully subsided? And how do you view order growth over the next few quarters?

Chong Cai

Thank you, Ronald. The second quarter order volume growth was broadly in line with our expectations, driven primarily by continued improvements in freight order quality and fulfillment efficiency. First, our ecosystem, governance work and optimized user mix continue to pay off. Since the fourth quarter of last year, we have implemented targeted governance initiatives addressing misclassified car pooling orders, freight reselling and low-priced freight listing, which have significantly improved the authenticity of freight demand and fulfillment reliability.

Meanwhile, direct shippers have continued to grow as a share of our shipper base, further shifting our order mix towards genuine shipping demand. These improvements have strengthened truckers' willingness to accept orders leading to greater fulfillment reliability and efficiency. Second, more refined operations further improved our supply-demand dynamics.

During the past quarter, we continued to enhance our trucker credit rating program and freight payment protection mechanism. We directed more high-quality freight demand and core platform benefits towards truckers with strong fulfillment track records, increasing order acceptance among high-quality capacity. Meanwhile, freight payment protection helped alleviate truckers' concerns about payment defaults and other transaction risks, improving fulfillment reliability post match. As a result, the medium matching time of orders on our platform was shortened to 5 minutes for the first time, reflecting further gains in matching efficiency.

Third, solid growth in our full truckload long-haul business remained a key driver. Fulfilled orders in the segment grew faster than overall platform orders during the quarter on the strength of the supply-demand network, price discovery capabilities and capacity matching efficiency we have built in the ad hoc trucking market. These capacities widened our online platform advantages over offline channels and supported high-quality growth at scale.

Fuel price volatility since the beginning of the second quarter temporarily impacted both overall road freight demand and the growth of fulfilled orders on our platform. Domestic diesel prices remain elevated from the late March through May, in particular, dampening shipping demand for certain low-value price-sensitive freight.

Since June, consecutive diesel price cuts have gradually eased transportation cost pressures supporting a recovery in year-over-year order growth on our platform. Looking ahead, we remain cautiously optimistic about long-term order growth. Externally, the recent moderation in fuel prices should support gradual recovery in freight demand, although the road freight market continues to face a challenging and evolving macro environment.

In addition, the recent typhoon, flooding, earthquakes and other extreme weather events and natural disasters across various parts of China may cause some near-term disruption to freight shipping and transportation activities. Over the long term, we believe online penetration in the long-haul freight market still has substantial room to grow. We will continue to drive growth in fulfilled orders by expanding our direct shipper base, increasing penetration in the full truckload long-haul segment and further improving order quality through ongoing ecosystem governance initiatives.

The next question comes from Brian Gong with Citi.

Brian Gong

[Foreign Language] My question is regarding fulfillment rate. Our fulfillment rate hit a record high of 47% in the second quarter. Can management share, what were the key drivers in the second quarter? And how do you expect this metric to trend going forward?

Chong Cai

Thank you, Brian. Our fulfillment rate reached 47% in the second quarter that's up 6.3 percentage points year-over-year and 2.9 percentage points quarter-over-quarter, setting another record high. Fulfillment rates improved across all major business lines and shipper segments, primarily driven by systemic improvements in capacity allocation, freight demand quality and matching efficiency.

On the capacity side, effective truck supply remained abundant. Monthly active truckers responding to orders increased by nearly 5% year-over-year in the second quarter, supporting timely order responses and reliable fulfillment. Notably, the fulfillment rate for our full truckload long-haul business increased by nearly 7 percentage points making it an important driver of the overall improvement during the quarter.

Second, our ongoing ecosystem governance initiatives continue to improve freight demand quality across the platform laying a solid foundation for the increase in the overall fulfillment rate. In terms of product, further segmentation of our product portfolio and enhanced matching efficiency, we resegmented our freight product offering into 4 clear categories: express, entrusted shipping, general freight and less than truckload or LTL, each of them is designed for a distinct use case, rapid and satisfying short-haul matching, higher-quality [ pricing ] services, standard matching and LTL shipments through partnerships with dedicated line carriers, respectively.

Clear product positioning enables shippers to communicate their transportation requirements more effectively and allows the platform to match the most suitable capacity, reducing mismatches throughout the transaction and fulfillment process. From a user mix perspective, fulfillment performance improved across all shipper segments, the average fulfillment rate among direct shippers exceeded 65% while fulfillment among broker shippers also continue to improve. This demonstrates that the increase in the platform-wide fulfillment rate was driven not only by the growing share of high-quality direct shippers, but also the organic improvement in order quality and conversion efficiency across the broader shipper base.

We expect the platform's fulfillment rate to maintain a steady upward trajectory going forward as we continue to refine our operating strategies and product mechanisms while progressively integrating AI across the full matching and fulfillment process. We expect to unlock further gains in transaction efficiency. Thank you.

Operator

Your next question comes from Xin Chen with UBS.

Xin Chen

[Foreign Language]

This is Xin Chen from UBS. My question is about the transaction service revenue. This revenue continued to grow rapidly in the second quarter, increasing by 33% year-on-year. What were the key growth drivers? And how do you view the outlook for this revenue?

Chong Cai

Yes. The transaction service revenue reached approximately RMB 1.77 billion in the second quarter that's up 33% year-over-year. And this strong growth was primarily driven by the full rollout of our commission network, steady improvement in monetization per order and incremental contributions from emerging business use cases. Firstly, nearly full coverage of our commission network provided a solid foundation for our transaction service business.

During the second quarter, we completed the rollout of the commission model across all eligible cities, lifting the commission penetration rate to 94.7%. At the same time, our ongoing ecosystem governance initiatives continue to improve freight demand quality and drive the overall fulfillment rate higher, providing a larger and more reliable base of high-quality transactions for our commission model.

Second, refined operations continue to improve monetization efficiency. We dynamically optimize our commission strategy based on city, route, vehicle type and user segment. As we advance monetization, healthier trucker economics and the long-term health of our platform ecosystem remain essential prerequisite. Our commission strategy considers truckers' take-home earnings, willingness to accept orders, retention and fulfillment performance. We also improved truckers' operating efficiency through preferential access to high-quality freight demand, membership benefits, freight payment protection and operational subsidies. We firmly believe that protecting reasonable trucker earnings is fundamental to creating a sustainable virtuous cycle between the transaction scale and monetization.

As we move forward, we expect transaction service revenue to deliver high-quality, sustainable long-term growth, driven primarily by continued growth in fulfilled orders, higher monetization per order through refined and tiered operations and the scaling of new business cases.

Operator

Your next question comes from Wenjie Zhang with CICC.

Wenjie Zhang

[Foreign Language] My question is about freight brokerage business. Can you give us an update on the progress of transforming this business during the second quarter?

Chong Cai

Thank you. In the second quarter, we made steady progress in transitioning our freight brokerage business from a traditional self-operated model to a dual track structure combining self-operated and aggregator operations. We're taking a phased approach to transition and optimizing the business mix in line with customer needs and compliance requirements. This enables us to reduce our exposure to VAT refund risks while continuing to meet shippers' needs for compliant VAT invoicing and freight matching.

First, we proactively managed the scale of the self-operated business while further improving its customer mix. Under this model, the platform continues to handle invoicing and settlement workflows primarily serving shippers with genuine freight matching needs. During the second quarter, invoicing-only customers declined further to a single-digit percentage of the total transaction volume.

Customers that continue to use this model primarily seek an integrated solution combining freight matching with VAT invoicing, reflecting continued improvement in the quality of this business. The take rate for the self-operated invoicing business remained stable at approximately 10% during the quarter. Second, the aggregator model continued to grow steadily, diversifying the underlying risk across a larger base. Under this model, invoicing and fund settlement workflows are handled by qualified third-party partners, while our own platform focuses primarily on matching freight demand with truck capacity and charges a low single-digit channel service fee.

Beginning in the second quarter, the associated revenue was recognized under freight brokerage business. This asset-light model significantly reduces the company's direct exposure to VAT refund, settlement and operational risk while keeping shippers and their freight demand within our platform ecosystem.

Going forward, we continue to manage a smooth transition between the self-operated and aggregator models and this will enable us to meet shippers' compliance demand, deepen user engagement and better support and reinforce our core freight matching business. As the asset-light revenue contribution from the aggregator model gradually scales, we expect the revenue mix and overall earning quality of the freight brokerage business to improve further. Thank you.

Operator

Next question comes from Ritchie Sun with HSBC.

Ritchie Sun

[Foreign Language] I want to ask about the operating cash flow, which was RMB 2.15 billion in the second quarter, has been very strong growth. So what are the key drivers behind it?

Chong Cai

In the second quarter, our net cash provided by operating activities reached RMB 2.15 billion, while free cash flow totaled RMB 2.04 billion reflecting strong cash generation across the business. This performance was driven primarily by a significantly improved profitability in our core platform business, the release of capital previously tied up in our credit business as a transition to a new model and efficient working capital management.

First, the high quality growth of our core business further strengthened our organic cash generation. Core platform businesses, such as transaction services are not only growing quickly but also benefit from an asset-light model with short cash collection cycles. As these businesses contribute a growing share of our revenue, our revenue and profit mix is becoming increasingly weighted towards businesses with higher cash conversion and significantly reinforcing the core business ability to generate cash organically.

Second, we continue transitioning our credit business towards asset-light distribution model, reducing the deployment of our own capital for new loans, while gradually recovering capital from the existing loan portfolio, the resulting reduction in capital tied up in this business contributed positively to the operating cash flow during the quarter.

In addition, we maintained a stable collection and settlement cycles and managed our working capital efficiently. And given the inherent asset-light nature of our platform model, rapid business expansion does not require a corresponding increase in capital deployment, providing further support for our working -- operating cash flow.

Looking ahead, our cash flow may fluctuate from quarter-to-quarter due to the timing of business settlement, tax payments and changes in working capital. Nevertheless, as our revenue mix continues to shift towards higher-margin asset-light platform business, we expect our long-term cash generation capabilities to strengthen steadily.

Operator

And that concludes the question-and-answer session. I would like to turn the conference back over to management for any additional or closing comments.
