Management Commentary
Mr. Kevin
Ma, Chairman and CEO of ACG, stated, “We are pleased to see that our recruitment efforts have continued to yield positive results
in our core portfolio training services business, driving student enrollment growth and increasing total credit hours delivered by 49.3%
during Second Quarter 2024. Portfolio training services continued to be the key contributor to top line growth, driving a 42.8% increase
in total net revenues to RMB51.8 million during the period, supported by growth in overseas study counselling services and research-based
learning services. As a result of this revenue growth, we reported 49.6% in gross margin for Second Quarter 2024, a notable improvement
from 39.5% in the prior-year period, and narrowed bottom line losses despite increased operating expenses as we continue to invest in
growing enrollment and expanding the business.”
Mr. Ma continued, “Following the successful
execution and overwhelmingly positive feedback from our 70 participating students and teaching staff in May, we hosted a second session
of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals Arts Boot Camp (the ‘SDG Boot Camp’) in July. The SDG Boot Camp was once
again well received by students, and we were pleased to have another opportunity to partner with the UN and UNESCO on this project. During
Second Quarter 2024, we hosted the ACG Arts Education Exhibition across five major cities in China, sharing our knowledge of the options
available to students interested in a creative arts education, as well as bringing in admission committee officers from prestigious overseas
arts institutions to provide insights on the application process. We believe these events increase ACG’s market exposure and serve
as a student acquisition channel while providing a valuable opportunity for prospective students to gain a better understanding of a range
of schools and their programs and philosophies. Through our diversified portfolio of offerings, we remain committed to enabling positive
outcomes for our students.”
Outlook
Mr. Jun Zhang, President of ACG, stated,
“This summer we launched a variety of research-based learning experiences for students across different creative disciplines and
abilities. In addition to our in-person Master Class projects and Chinese intangible cultural heritage-themed camps in Dunhuang,
Gansu Province and west Sichuan Province, we are hosting two campus tours in Tokyo and multiple cities in the United States, providing
participating students with an immersive on-campus experience and the opportunity to get a glimpse of the inner workings of global enterprises
in industries such as fashion, gaming and animation production. We are also collaborating with University of The Arts London (‘UAL’)
on a summer school project where students take classes at the UAL campus and experience European history and culture in one of the world’s
most vibrant cities. In July, ACG partnered with University College London (‘UCL’) Bartlett Development Planning Unit to host
a two-week summer lab in Chengdu, Sichuan Province. Through a series of lectures and a design workshop led by UCL staff, the summer lab
focused on sustainable urban development and the potential of citizen participation, providing students an opportunity to reflect on real
day-to-day local life from a practical and sustainable urban design perspective. We are pleased to see so many students, both returning
and new, taking advantage of these learning experiences this summer and will continue striving to provide these types of valuable and
memorable experiences in the future. The second half of the year has historically been stronger for ACG, and we anticipate this to be
true in 2024 as well. We remain on track to meet revenue guidance for the year and are pleased to be reiterating the previously provided
guidance range.”
Guidance for Fiscal Year 2024
ACG
is reiterating its previously provided guidance of total net revenues of between RMB233 million and RMB255 million for the year

existing business, current view of existing market conditions and assumptions for the year ending December 31, 2024.

ACG’s
total net revenues for Second Quarter 2024 were RMB51.8 million (US$7.1 million), an increase of 42.8% from RMB36.2 million in

Total
operating expenses for Second Quarter 2024 were RMB46.5 million (US$6.4 million), an increase of 30.2% from RMB35.7 million in
the prior-year period. The increase was primarily due to an RMB5.5 million increase in G&A expense related to increased professional

Total
operating expenses for First Half 2024 were RMB90.1 million (US$12.4 million), an increase of 18.8% from RMB75.8 million in the

services and control sales and marketing expenses, its recognition in the marketplace for services it delivered and branding it established,

and the impact of actual or potential international trade or military conflicts, and other factors stated in the Company’s filings
with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
The financial information contained in this release
should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s annual report
on Form 20-F for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, and other filings that ACG has made with the SEC. The filings are

the Company cannot assure you that its expectations and assumptions will turn out to be correct, and investors are cautioned that actual

Currency Convenience Translation
The
Company’s financial information is stated in Renminbi (“RMB”), the currency of the People’s Republic of China.
The translations of RMB amounts for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2024, into U.S. dollars are included solely
for the convenience of readers and have been made at the rate of RMB7.2672 to US$1.00, the noon buying rate as of June 30, 2024,
in New York for cable transfers in RMB per U.S. dollar as set forth in the H.10 weekly statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board.
Such translations should not be construed as representations that RMB amounts could be converted into U.S. dollars at that rate or any
other rate, or to be the amounts that would have been reported under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).
About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement ACG’s consolidated financial
information presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, ACG uses the following non-GAAP financial measures: net income (loss) excluding share-based
compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gain or loss, and basic and diluted earnings (losses) per common share and ADS excluding
share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gain or loss.
The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures
is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with
GAAP. ACG believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information about its performance by excluding share-based
compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gain or loss, which may not be indicative of its operating performance.
ACG believes that both management and investors
benefit from these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing its performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. These non-GAAP
financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparisons to ACG’s historical performance. ACG computes its non-GAAP
financial measures using a consistent method from period to period. ACG believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to
investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational
decision making. A limitation of using non-GAAP net income (loss) excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange
gain or loss and basic and diluted earnings (losses) per common share and per ADS excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign
currency exchange gain or loss is that share-based compensation charges and foreign currency exchange gain or loss have been, and are
expected to continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense in ACG’s business.
Management compensates for these limitations by
providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from each non-GAAP measure. The table captioned “Reconciliations
of Non-GAAP Measures to the Most Comparable GAAP Measures” shown at the end of this news release has more details on the reconciliations
between GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to the non-GAAP financial measures used by ACG.
