[{"type":"text","content":"CHENGDU, China, June 13, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Senmiao Technology Limited (\"Senmiao\" or the \"Company\") (Nasdaq: AIHS), a financing and servicing company focused on the online ride-hailing industry in China as well as an operator of its own online ride-hailing platform, today announced the operating metrics for its proprietary online ride-hailing platform for the month of May 2023. In May 2023, Senmiao and its affiliates recorded approximately 0.8 million total completed orders, compared to approximately 0.9 million total orders completed in April 2023. The decrease was due to increased competition in the Chengdu market as a result of new ride-hailing platforms launching and offering promotions during the month. \nNumbers reported include the number of completed orders from several ride-hailing platforms in Chengdu (Meituan, Xiehua, Anma and other platforms), utilizing Senmiao's network of cars and drivers for a set monthly fee.\nSince the launch of Senmiao's online ride-hailing platform in October 2020, approximately 23.4 million rides have been completed using its own platform. Over 7.9 million rides have been completed on Meituan, Xiehua, Anma and other platforms in partnership with Senmiao since August 2021. The number of drivers completing rides via all the platforms (known as Active Drivers) in May 2023 was 7,470, compared to 7,422 in April 2023.\nThe table below presents approximate unaudited operating metrics of Senmiao and its affiliates' online ride-hailing platform since the launch in October 2020.\nCompleted Orders under Original Model1\n(in 000s)\nCompleted Orders under New Model2 (in 000s)\nTotal Completed Orders\n(in 000s)\nTotal Fares Paid by Riders\n(in 000s USD$)\nActive Drivers\nOct-Dec 2020\n1,318\n1,318\n4,039\nN/A\nJan-Dec 2021\n13,360\n2,485\n15,845\n49,505\nN/A\nJan 2022\n455\n492\n947\n3,413\n7,085\nFeb 2022\n344\n371\n715\n2,651\n6,008\nMar 2022\n534\n480\n1,014\n3,660\n7,091\nApr 2022\n502\n369\n871\n3,009\n6,095\nMay 2022\n581\n357\n938\n3,286\n5,989\nJun 2022\n602\n319\n921\n3,290\n5,862\nJul 2022\n636\n337\n973\n3,504\n5,928\nAug 2022\n617\n400\n1,017\n3,583\n6,778\nSep 2022\n414\n114\n528\n1,712\n6,030\nOct 2022\n600\n306\n906\n2,794\n7,574\nNov 2022\n456\n298\n754\n2,267\n7,019\nDec 2022\n390\n267\n657\n1,973\n6,682\nJan 2023\n338\n239\n577\n1,928\n4,830\nFeb 2023\n460\n276\n736\n2,328\n5,973\nM...
