Financial Highlights of Second Half 2024
During the second half of 2024, Viomi reported net revenues of RMB1,282.4 million (approximately US$175.7 million), marking a robust increase of 42.8% compared to RMB897.9 million in the same period of 2023.
The Company’s net income surged to RMB56.8 million (around US$7.8 million), in stark contrast to a net loss of RMB32.0 million reported in the prior year.
Full Year 2024 Achievements
For the full year of 2024, Viomi's total revenue reached RMB2,119.0 million (about US$290.3 million), reflecting a remarkable growth of 29.3% from RMB1,638.7 million in 2023.
The Company's net income for the year was RMB62.3 million (approximately US$8.5 million), a significant turnaround from a net loss of RMB89.3 million in 2023.
Strategic Reorganization and Focus on Core Products
This remarkable turnaround is attributed to a strategic business reorganization undertaken by Viomi in August 2024, where the Company strategically divested its less profitable IoT@Home portfolio while sharpening its focus on its core home water solutions. This pivotal move has allowed Viomi to enhance operational efficiency and drive substantial revenue growth in its main product lines.
Success in Home Water Systems
The company has witnessed a remarkable 39.0% year-over-year growth in revenue from its home water systems, which includes state-of-the-art smart water purification products, water heaters, and related businesses. The strength of this segment reflects a growing consumer demand for sustainable and efficient home water solutions.
Innovations and Market Position
Viomi is committed to driving product innovation within the home water purification market. Leveraging over a decade of expertise, the Company's comprehensive product range employs AI technology for improved functionality and user experience. Noteworthy features include real-time water quality monitoring, proactive filter replacement reminders, and an intuitive app for seamless reordering.
Global Market Presence and Future Outlook
Viomi’s market reach extends beyond China, with the introduction of advanced products like the Vortex series of under-the-sink RO water purifiers in North America. These user-friendly products have quickly gained popularity, evidenced by a successful crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter.
As the Company looks forward to 2025, it has outlined four strategic initiatives aimed at enhancing its market position. These include reinforcing its domestic presence, expanding into international markets, enhancing its product portfolio, and strengthening collaborations with strategic partners.
