Mr. Haisheng Wu, Chief Executive Officer and Director of Qifu Technology, commented, “While macro-economic recovery appeared moderating, along with consumers’ demand for credit, we managed to generate accelerated growth in loan volume in the second quarter, exceeding our internal targets. For the second quarter, total loan facilitation and origination volume was RMB124.2 billion, up approximately 26.4% year-on-year and 13.5% sequentially. Through optimizing customer acquisition channels and enriching product offerings, we achieved better customer engagement and activity levels, which are expected to continue to support sustainable growth. Approximately 58% of the loan volume was facilitated under the capital-light model, ICE and other technology solutions, which is slightly above the level in recent quarters.

With an optimized user base, we continued to offer more attractive products in a stable pricing environment to achieve higher retention rates. Overall risk metrics were stable in the second quarter despite somewhat weakening consumer sentiment. In addition, we continued to strengthen our partnership with financial institutions to secure better funding terms. During the quarter we issued record amount of ABS, which helped us further reduce our overall funding costs to record low levels.

We note that recent public statements by government agencies suggest further policy support to re-energize the economy. While the pace of macro-economic recovery is still uncertain, we will continue to drive for consistent executions and optimal balance between healthy growth and manageable risks. Some of the operational initiatives we launched recently are expected to make positive contributions in the second half of this year and the next year. In the long run, we are confident to maintain our leadership position in the industry through continued enhancement of business model and technology innovation.”

“We are pleased to report another quarter of solid financial results amidst a moderately recovering macro environment. Total revenue was RMB3.91 billion and non-GAAP net income was RMB1,147 million for the second quarter,” Mr. Alex Xu, Chief Financial Officer, commented. “During the quarter, despite the macro uncertainty, we continued to deploy additional resources to drive business growth while maintaining a prudent approach to manage risks and cash flow. At the end of the second quarter, our total cash and cash equivalent^*11 was approximately RMB8.5 billion, and we generated approximately RMB1.8 billion cash from operations. During the quarter, we announced a 12-month, US$150 million share repurchase program, which is still being gradually executed. Our strong financial positions not only enable us to drive additional growth, but also allow us to maintain decent shareholder returns through dividend payout and share repurchase.”

Mr. Yan Zheng, Chief Risk Officer, added, “We see relatively stable overall risk metrics of our loan book in the second quarter as we continued to take a prudent approach in managing risks. While we observed some regain of confidence among our users, the pace and scope of such improvement remained uncertain. Among key leading indicators, Day-1 delinquency rate^*12 was 4.2%, and 30-day collection rate^*13 was approximately 87%. Both metrics were still close to the best levels in recent quarters. As the economic conditions change, we will continue to seek optimal balance between risk exposure and business growth.”

Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results

Net revenue from Credit Driven Services was RMB2,788.7 million (US$384.6 million), compared to RMB2,947.8 million in the same period of 2022, and RMB2,630.6 million in the prior quarter.

Loan facilitation and servicing fees-capital heavy were RMB395.5 million (US$54.5 million), compared to RMB580.4 million in the same period of 2022 and RMB311.2 million in the prior quarter. The year-over-year decrease was primarily due to a decline in capital-heavy loan facilitation volume and shorter average duration of the loans. The sequential increase was primarily due to higher capital-heavy loan volume and relatively stable effective duration of the loans.

Financing income^*14 was RMB1,188.7 million (US$163.9 million), compared to RMB819.6 million in the same period of 2022 and RMB1,065.9 million in the prior quarter. The year-over-year and sequential increases were primarily due to the growth in average outstanding balance of the on-balance-sheet loans.

Revenue from releasing of guarantee liabilities was RMB1,158.6 million (US$159.8 million), compared to RMB1,524.5 million in the same period of 2022, and RMB1,209.8 million in the prior quarter. The year-over-year and sequential decreases were mainly due to decreases in average outstanding balance of off-balance-sheet capital-heavy loans during the period.

Other services fees were RMB45.9 million (US$6.3 million), compared to RMB23.3 million in the same period of 2022, and RMB43.8 million in the prior quarter. The year-over-year and sequential increases were mainly due to the increases in late payment fees under the capital-heavy model.

Net revenue from Platform Services was RMB1,125.6 million (US$155.2 million), compared to RMB1,235.4 million in the same period of 2022 and RMB968.6 million in the prior quarter.

Loan facilitation and servicing fees-capital light were RMB887.8 million (US$122.4 million), compared to RMB1,030.0 million in the same period of 2022 and RMB765.3 million in the prior quarter. The year-over-year decrease was mainly due to a decline in the fees received from financial institutions as a result of reduced interest rates. The sequential increase was primarily due to higher capital-light loan volume and relatively stable effective duration of the loans.

Referral services fees were RMB160.9 million (US$22.2 million), compared to RMB135.4 million in the same period of 2022 and RMB108.5 million in the prior quarter. The year-over-year and sequential increases were mainly due to the increase in the loan facilitation volume through ICE.

Other services fees were RMB76.9 million (US$10.6 million), compared to RMB70.1 million in the same period of 2022 and RMB94.8 million in the prior quarter. The year-over-year and sequential changes were mainly due to changes in late payment fees.

Total operating costs and expenses were RMB2,732.8 million (US$376.9 million), compared to RMB3,172.4 million in the same period of 2022 and RMB2,592.1 million in the prior quarter.

Facilitation, origination and servicing expenses were RMB648.0 million (US$89.4 million), compared to RMB555.6 million in the same period of 2022 and RMB640.3 million in the prior quarter. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to higher credit search fees and collection fees.

Funding costs were RMB165.2 million (US$22.8 million), compared to RMB123.9 million in the same period of 2022 and RMB159.0 million in the prior quarter. The year-over-year and sequential increases were mainly due to increases in funding from ABS, as a result of continued growth in on-balance-sheet loan balance, partially offset by the lower average cost of ABS.

Sales and marketing expenses were RMB436.5 million (US$60.2 million), compared to RMB615.1 million in the same period of 2022 and RMB422.2 million in the prior quarter. The year-over-year and sequential changes were mainly due to changes in unit customer acquisition cost in the second quarter.

General and administrative expenses were RMB112.8 million (US$15.6 million), compared to RMB93.9 million in the same period of 2022 and RMB104.9 million in the prior quarter. The year-over-year and sequential increases were mainly due to increases in professional service fees.

Provision for loans receivable was RMB483.3 million (US$66.7 million), compared to RMB416.1 million in the same period of 2022 and RMB518.9 million in the prior quarter. The year-over-year increase was mainly due to the growth in loan origination volume of on-balance-sheet loans, partially offset by the better overall performance of loans facilitated in previous quarters. The sequential decrease was mainly due to a reversal of prior quarters’ provision in this quarter as on-balance-sheet loans facilitated in previous quarters performed better than expected.

Provision for financial assets receivable was RMB82.3 million (US$11.3 million), compared to RMB103.7 million in the same period of 2022 and RMB68.8 million in the prior quarter.

Provision for accounts receivable and contract assets was RMB47.2 million (US$6.5 million), compared to RMB63.4 million in the same period of 2022 and RMB-2.2 million in the prior quarter.

Provision for contingent liability was RMB757.6 million (US$104.5 million), compared to RMB1,200.7 million in the same period of 2022 and RMB680.3 million in the prior quarter. The year-over-year and sequential changes reflected the Company’s consistent approach in assessing provisions commensurate with its underlying loan profile. In addition, the year-over-year decrease was also partially due to the decrease in loan facilitation volume of off-balance-sheet loans.

The board of directors of the Company has approved a dividend of US$0.25 per Class A ordinary share, or US$0.50 per ADS for the first half of 2023 to holders of record of Class A ordinary shares and ADSs as of the close of business on September 22, 2023 Hong Kong Time and New York Time, respectively, in accordance with the Company’s dividend policy. For holder of Class A ordinary shares, in order to qualify for the dividend, all valid documents for the transfers of shares accompanied by the relevant share certificates must be lodged for registration with the Company’s Hong Kong branch share registrar, Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited, at Shops 1712-1716, 17th Floor, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen’s Road East, Hong Kong no later than 4:30 p.m. on September 22, 2023 (Hong Kong Time).

Update on Share Repurchase

On June 20, 2023, the Company announced a share repurchase plan whereby the Company is authorized to repurchase its American depositary shares (“ADSs”) or Class A ordinary shares with an aggregate value of up to US$150 million during the 12-month period from June 20, 2023. From the launch of the share repurchase plan to August 18, 2023, the Company in aggregate purchased approximately 1.6 million ADSs in the open market for a total cost of approximately US$28.3 million (inclusive of commissions) at an average price of $18.03 per ADS pursuant to the share repurchase plan.

Business Outlook

While the year-on-year growth in loan volume in the second quarter of 2023 accelerated, which is in part due to a relatively lower loan volume in the same period of 2022, macro-economic uncertainties remained. At this junction, the Company continues to expect a slow recovery in consumer credit demand, with growth rates depending on macro conditions for the rest of the year to some extent. As such, the Company would like to adjust its outlook of loan volume for 2023 to be between RMB470 billion and RMB485 billion, representing a year-on-year growth of 14% to 18%, compared to the previous outlook of RMB455 billion to RMB495 billion. This outlook reflects the Company’s current and preliminary views, which is subject to material changes.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures Statement

To supplement our financial results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we use Non-GAAP financial measure, which is adjusted from results based on U.S. GAAP to exclude share-based compensation expenses. Reconciliations of our Non-GAAP financial measures to our U.S. GAAP financial measures are set forth in tables at the end of this earnings release, which provide more details on the Non-GAAP financial measures.

We use Non-GAAP income from operation, Non-GAAP operating margin, Non-GAAP net income, Non-GAAP net income margin, Non-GAAP net income attributed to the Company and Non-GAAP net income per fully diluted ADS in evaluating our operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. Non-GAAP income from operation represents income from operation excluding share-based compensation expenses. Non-GAAP operating margin is equal to Non-GAAP income from operation divided by total net revenue. Non-GAAP net income represents net income excluding share-based compensation expenses. Non-GAAP net income margin is equal to Non-GAAP net income divided by total net revenue. Non-GAAP net income attributed to the Company represents net income attributed to the Company excluding share-based compensation expenses. Non-GAAP net income per fully diluted ADS represents net income per fully diluted ADS excluding share-based compensation expenses. Such adjustments have no impact on income tax. We believe that Non-GAAP income from operation and Non-GAAP net income help identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of certain expenses that we include in results based on U.S. GAAP. We believe that Non-GAAP income from operation and Non-GAAP net income provide useful information about our operating results, enhance the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by our management in its financial and operational decision-making. Our Non-GAAP financial information should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to U.S. GAAP results. In addition, our calculation of Non-GAAP financial information may be different from the calculation used by other companies, and therefore comparability may be limited.
