Flexible employment in the main business continued to increase, and the outsourcing business of headhunting and recruitment process resumed at an accelerated pace. The company’s annual income has maintained a good growth, and its business resilience is strong under the epidemic situation. The high growth mainly comes from: 1) the volume of the main business is still small, which is far from meeting the demand of stock posts, and the supply of the business is in short supply; It is estimated that the annual flexible work business will increase by nearly 80% in 2021. 2) In 2021h1, the medium and high-end talent search and recruitment process outsourcing business increased by 33.6% and 28.9% year-on-year respectively under the low base effect in 2020. It is expected to achieve rapid restorative growth in 2021.

The company’s total expenditure on digital transformation and technology products in 2021 was 110 million yuan. If the impact of temporary losses in new technology service business is excluded, the annual performance growth rate may exceed 40%.
