Fourth Quarter 2024 and Fiscal Year 2024 Operational Highlights

Financial Services Business

Insurance Brokerage Business

"We closed out the year on a strong note, delivering another solid quarter of results that were in line with our previous guidance." said Mr. Ning Tang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. 

"2024 marked a milestone for us with several key achievements: First, we upgraded our customer segments in the financial services business, effectively improving asset quality for sustainable growth. Second, we advanced our proprietary AI systems and integrated them across all operations, driving significant improvements in efficiency and user experience. Third, our international business met its phased objectives and achieved profitability, driven by our successful expansion in the Philippines. These successes set the foundation for our long-term, high-quality growth in the coming year."

"The year 2024 has been a strong one, with solid financial performance, as full-year revenue grew by 19%," Mr. Yuning Feng, Chief Financial Officer commented. "On the balance sheet side, as of the end of 2024, our cash and cash equivalents remained strong at RMB3.8 billion, highlighting our financial flexibility and positioning us to capitalize on strategic opportunities. Meanwhile, we are pleased to announce a cash dividend distribution for the second half of 2024, amounting to US$0.22 per American depositary share (the“ADS”), an approximately 20% payout ratio, up from 14% for the first half of 2024."

Fourth Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Total net revenue in the fourth quarter of 2024 was RMB1,452.2 million (US$199.0 million), representing an increase of 14.0% from RMB1,274.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. Particularly, in the fourth quarter of 2024, revenue from financial services business was RMB1,047.8 million (US$143.5 million), representing an increase of 34.1% from RMB781.3 million in the same period of 2023. The increase was attributed to the persistent and growing demand for our small revolving loan products. Revenue from insurance brokerage business was RMB106.4 million (US$14.6 million), representing an increase of 8.4% from RMB98.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. The increase was driven by a higher-than-expected premium renewal rate. Revenue from consumption and lifestyle business and others was RMB298.0 million (US$40.8 million), representing a decrease of 24.5% from RMB394.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. The decrease was mainly due to the already high penetration of our products and services within the existing customer pool, along with our strategic scale-back of product offerings as we upgrade our customer segment. The Company is conducting a strategic review of this segment to better understand its potential and identify the best ways to serve our customers. Based on the findings, we will adjust our approach and offerings to ensure we effectively meet their needs.

Sales and marketing expenses in the fourth quarter of 2024 were RMB298.5 million (US$40.9 million), compared to RMB205.7 million in the same period of 2023. The increase was primarily driven by the swift growth of our financial services segment and enhanced marketing endeavors aimed at attracting new, high-caliber customers while optimizing our customer composition.

Origination, servicing and other operating costs in the fourth quarter of 2024 were RMB197.2 million (US$27.0 million), which remained relatively stable compared to RMB184.7 million in the same period of 2023.

General and administrative expenses in the fourth quarter of 2024 were RMB42.2 million (US$5.8 million), compared to RMB50.5 million in the same period of 2023. The decrease was primarily due to ongoing investments in technology and AI, which have transformed the company's personnel composition and improved operational efficiency.

Allowance for contract assets, receivables and others in the fourth quarter of 2024 was RMB203.1 million (US$27.8 million), compared to RMB100.2 million in the same period of 2023.

Provision for contingent liabilities in the fourth quarter of 2024 was RMB250.7 million (US$34.3 million), compared to a reversal of RMB1.5 million in the same period of 2023. The increase was mainly attributed to a growing volume of loans facilitated under our risk-taking model[1].

Net income in the fourth quarter of 2024 was RMB331.4 million (US$45.4 million), as compared to RMB571.3 million in the same period in 2023. The decrease was primarily due to the growing loan volume facilitated by our risk-taking model, which required substantial upfront provisions under current accounting principles, as well as increased investment in acquiring new, higher-quality borrowers and developing AI innovation and capabilities.

Adjusted EBITDA[2] (non-GAAP) in the fourth quarter of 2024 was RMB313.9 million (US$43.0 million), compared to RMB684.8 million in the same period of 2023.

This is the Company’s current and preliminary view, which is subject to changes and uncertainties.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In evaluating the business, the Company considers and uses several non-GAAP financial measures, such as adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin as supplemental measures to review and assess operating performance. We believe these non-GAAP measures provide useful information about our core operating results, enhance the overall understanding of our past performance and prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by our management in our financial and operational decision-making. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. Other companies, including peer companies in the industry, may calculate these non-GAAP measures differently, which may reduce their usefulness as a comparative measure. The Company compensates for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measure, all of which should be considered when evaluating our performance. See "Operating Highlights and Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP measures" at the end of this press release.
