compared to 2.6% in the corresponding quarter of the prior year, while Non-GAAP operational loss accounted for 1.3% of net revenues this
quarter as compared to 1.0% in the same quarter of last year."
Mr. Liu added, "Nevertheless, we've made strides
in improving our operational efficiency, with excluding the share-based compensation, total operating expenses as a percentage of net
revenues falling to 6.6% this quarter, down from 7.1% in the corresponding quarter of the previous year. We anticipate maintaining this
positive trajectory as we expand. Concurrently, our dedication remains steadfast in providing top-tier services to our customers and patients."
Mr. Liu added, "in whole year 2023, we managed
to achieve net revenues growth at 10.6%. Our gross segment profit for the year increased by 1.1%. In addition, we continued to improve
our operation efficiency. Our total sales and marketing expenses, G&A expenses and technology expenses, excluding share-based compensation,

decreased to 0.8% from 1.6% last year."

commitment to integrating health and technology for better healthcare outcomes. Our journey in 2023 was marked by a steadfast commitment
to operational efficiency, innovation, and customer-focused strategies, propelling us towards a future of enhanced healthcare delivery
and industry leadership.
