We arealso Chinas largest internet KOL facilitator in e-commerce as measured by GMV in 2018 and number of signed KOLs, fans and online stores as of December 31,2018 according to the same source. As of December 31, 2018, we had 113 signed KOLs with an aggregate of 148.4 million fans across major social mediaplatforms in China. Through our KOLs, we facilitated the sale of an aggregate GMV of RMB1.2 billion, RMB2.0 billion and RMB2.2 billion on various e-commerce platforms in scal years 2017 and 2018 and the rst three quarters of scal year 2019, respectively.KOLs, also known as inuencers, are individuals who have the power to engage and impact people within a specic community or eld, such as fashion,culture, entertainment and gaming, and internet KOLs are KOLs who have gained their popularity through the internet. Our founders were among the earliestentrepreneurs in China to identify and capture the commercial opportunities created by the emergence of internet KOLs in China according to the Frost & Sullivanreport and started to cooperate with KOLs in e-commerce in 2014. We created a KOL ecosystem in China by connecting a large number of KOLs and their fans tocreate a vast network and connecting this network to a large number of businesses, including brands, online retailers, designers, manufacturers and suppliers, basedon existing e-commerce and social media platforms in China, to create value for participants in the ecosystem.According to the Frost & Sullivan report, we pioneered the commercialization of the KOL ecosystem through a full-service model whereby we integrate keysteps of the e-commerce value chain, from product design and sourcing and online store operation to logistics and after sales services. Under this model, we ownand operate online stores on third-party e-commerce platforms, a majority of which are opened in the name of our KOLs, and generate revenue through online salesof our self-designed products to consumers, especially the fans of our KOLs social media accounts that we manage. We provide professional training and supportto our KOLs and help them develop distinctive characters, enhance popularity and grow their fan bases. We also set up different brands for different KOLs anddesign and produce branded products based on each KOLs distinctive character to cater to the tastes of different KOLs fan bases, while our KOLs endorse suchproducts in their social media spaces.As we established our “Ruhnn“ brand and attracted more talented KOLs, we launched our platform model in 2017 to provide KOL sales and advertisingservices to brands and other merchants. Under this model, we connect our KOLs with third-party online stores and merchants to promote products sold in third-party online stores or provide advertising services on KOLs social media spaces to third-party merchants. This new model allows us to operate in a more asset-lightmanner and collaborate with a greater number and variety of KOLs and brands.We pride ourselves on our ability to identify and cultivate a large number of promising internet KOLs in an efcient and sustainable manner. The exibility ofour business and revenue model also enables us to work with a diversied KOL pool, including KOLs with different fashion styles, personalities and fan bases, andserve the different needs of various types of businesses. The number of our KOLs increased from 62 as of March 31, 2017 to 83 as of March 31, 2018, and furtherto 113 as of December 31, 2018, including three top-tier KOLs each with annual GMV of above RMB100.0 million and seven established KOLs each with annualGMV of between RMB30.0 million and1Table of ContentsRMB100.0 million in the past twelve months. One of our KOLs is among the top ten fashion internet KOLs in China as measured by number of fans according tothe Frost & Sullivan report.

As of December 31,2018, more than 80% of our KOLs fans were millennials and more than 78% of them were female, fashion pursuers and frequent online shoppers. The interactionsbetween our KOLs and their fans enable them to learn more about our products, which we believe have signicantly increased the likelihood of their fans placingorders with us. We believe our KOLs fans are also loyal customers and have strong emotional bonds with our KOL brands. Approximately 38% and 39% ofcustomers of our online stores made two or more purchases with us in scal year 2018 and the rst three quarters of scal year 2019, respectively. As we launchedour platform model, we believe our KOLs fan bases also help brands and third-party online retailers that use our KOL sales and advertising services to moreeffectively market and sell their products.We have utilized the latest technology to improve our operations and maintain competitiveness. We rely on data analysis and innovative technology to help ourKOLs produce engaging content and more effectively interact with their fans to increase their popularity.
