In January 2023, the Group acquired 100% equity interests of an entity at a cash consideration of RMB130 million, among which RMB114 million was allocated to goodwill.

non-deductible
for tax purposes, is primarily attributable to the synergies expected to be achieved from the acquisitions.
Neither the results of operations since the acquisition dates nor the pro forma results of operations of the acquirees were presented because the effects of these business combinations, both individually and in aggregate, were not significant to the Group’s consolidated results of operations.
