Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results

Net revenue was RMB577.1 million (US$89.6 million), representing an increase of 43.8% from the same period of 2020.

Revenue from loan facilitation services was RMB536.8 million (US$83.3 million), representing an increase of 84.7% from the same period of 2020, of which RMB48.6 million (US$7.5 million) was from individual investor referral services. The increase was primarily due to the increased loan origination volume from our institutional funding partners.

Revenue from post-origination services was nil, representing a decrease of 100% from the same period of 2020. The decrease was due to the outstanding loan balance of our legacy P2P lending business being reduced to zero in November 2020.

Other revenue was RMB40.3 million (US$6.3 million), representing a decrease of 47.7% from the same period of 2020. The decrease was primarily due to reduced revenue from P2P related services as the Company no longer supports the legacy P2P lending business, of which has been partially offset by the sales of hardware by Shanghai Bweenet Network Technology Co., Ltd. (“Shanghai Bweenet”).

Origination and servicing expense was RMB88.3 million (US$13.7 million), representing an increase of 48.4% from the same period of 2020, primarily due to the increase in credit assessment expense resulting from higher loan origination volume.

Cost of sales was RMB9.4 million (US$1.5 million), compared with nil from the same period of 2020. The increase was primarily due to the cost of hardware sold by Shanghai Bweenet.

Allowance for uncollectible receivables, contract assets, loans receivable and others was RMB6.2 million (US$1.0 million), representing a decrease of 60.8% from the same period of 2020, primarily due the decrease in estimated default rate under current business model.

Sales and marketing expense was RMB236.9 million (US$36.8 million), representing an increase of 138.1% from the same period of 2020, primarily due to our new online advertising and marketing strategy which has resulted in higher customer acquisition expenses.

General and administrative expense was RMB45.3 million (US$7.0 million), representing an increase of 21.4% from the same period of 2020, primarily due to the increased expenditures in employees benefits and professional service fees.

Research and development expense was RMB37.1 million (US$5.8 million), representing a decrease of 5.4% from the same period of 2020, primarily due to the improved utilization and productivity of our facilities and employees allocated to the research and development department, of which has been partially offset by the increase in professional services expenses as the Company continues to enhance research and development capabilities.

Income from operations was RMB153.8 million (US$23.9 million), compared with an operating income of RMB150.0 million in the same period of 2020.

Net income was RMB124.8 million (US$19.4 million), compared with net income of RMB88.4 million in the same period of 2020.

Cash and cash equivalents were RMB178.5 million (US$27.7 million) as of September 30, 2023, compared with RMB141.4 million as of June 30, 2023.
