Description of Business

ATRenew Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands on November 22, 2011. The Company through its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Group”) primarily sell pre-owned consumer electronics through its online platforms and offline stores, and provide services to third-party merchants to sell the products through its platforms. The Group’s principal operations and geographic markets are in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”).

Prior to April 2022, in order to comply with the PRC laws and regulations which used to prohibit or restrict foreign control of companies involved in provision of internet content and other restricted businesses, the Group began to operate its websites and other restricted businesses in the PRC through Shanghai Wanwuxinsheng Environmental Protection Technology Group Co., Ltd. (previously Shanghai Yueyee Network Information Technology Co., Ltd) (“Shanghai Yueyee” or “Shanghai Wanwuxinsheng”)and its wholly owned subsidiaries since 2011. On August 31, 2012, the Company, through its wholly owned foreign invested subsidiary, Shanghai Aihui Trading Co., Ltd (“Shanghai Aihui”), entered into contractual arrangements (“former VIE agreements”) with Shanghai Yueyee and its shareholders, which allowed the Group to effectively control the former VIE and to derive substantially all of the economic benefits from the former VIE. Thus, the Group had been consolidating the former VIE and its subsidiaries. In April 2022, such arrangements were terminated, and the shareholders of Shanghai Wanwuxinsheng, transferred their equity interests in former VIE to Shanghai Aihui. Following such termination and share transfer, Shanghai Wanwuxinsheng became the Company's subsidiary in which the Company holds direct equity ownership interests of 100%.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company’s major subsidiaries are as follows:
