Huang Zitao successfully launches his sanitary napkins business
21 May - Huang Zitao has successfully sold 195,000 pieces of his sanitary napkins in just 15 minutes, just as he launched his brand Domyway on 18 May.
The singer, who held the launch in Dongyang, Zhejiang, shared that the business is an important turning point in his life, and that he hopes people will think of him as Huang Zitao the entrepreneur and not Huang Zitao the celebrity whenever they see the brand.
The sanitary napkin brand is sold for RMB49.80 for a pack of 62 pieces, and RMB 99.80 for 124 pieces. Each set includes mini pads, day-use pads, night-use pads, and sanitary pants.
Tao also disclosed the factory arrangement of his product, saying that the factory currently has three fully automatic production lines, which can produce 1,200 sanitary napkins per minute. It also introduced traditional and AI dual systems for stain detection, with a scrap rate of only 2 percent.
It is understood that the total investment in the brand was approximately RMB 275 million.
He also thanked his own wife Xu Yiyang during the launch, saying that the singer has personally tested the product many times and even made suggestions for research and development.

All information provided in this press release is as of the date of this press release, and NIO does not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement, except as required under applicable law. Non-GAAP Disclosure The Company uses non-GAAP measures, such as adjusted cost of sales (non-GAAP), adjusted research and development expenses (non-GAAP), adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses (non-GAAP), adjusted loss from operations (non-GAAP), adjusted net loss (non-GAAP), adjusted net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders (non-GAAP) and adjusted basic and diluted net loss per share/ADS (non-GAAP), in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. The Company defines adjusted cost of sales (non-GAAP), adjusted research and development expenses (non-GAAP), adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses (non-GAAP) and adjusted loss from operations (non-GAAP) and adjusted net loss (non-GAAP) as cost of sales, research and development expenses, selling, general and administrative expenses, loss from operations and net loss excluding share-based compensation expenses. The Company defines adjusted net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders (non-GAAP), adjusted basic and diluted net loss per share/ADS (non-GAAP) as net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and basic and diluted net loss per share/ADS excluding share-based compensation expenses and accretion on redeemable non-controlling interests to redemption value. By excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses and accretion on redeemable non-controlling interests to redemption value, the Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in its business and enhance the overall understanding of the Company's past performance and future prospects. The Company also believes that the non-GAAP financial measures allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by the Company's management in its financial and operational decision-making. The non-GAAP financial measures are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP methods of accounting and reporting used by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and when assessing the Company's operating performance, investors should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for net loss or other consolidated statements of comprehensive loss data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure. The Company mitigates these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP performance measures, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company's performance. For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned 'Unaudited Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results' set forth at the end of this press release.
