First Quarter 2021 Financial Results

Net revenue for the first quarter of 2021 increased by 0.3% to RMB2,112.9 million (US$322.5 million) from RMB2,106.3 million in the same period of 2020, primarily due to the increase in loan origination volume and partially offset by the decrease in guarantee income as a result of improved asset quality.

Loan facilitation service fees increased by 103.4% to RMB761.6 million (US$116.2 million) for the first quarter of 2021 from RMB374.5 million in the same period of 2020, primarily due to the increase in loan origination volume which was partially offset by the decrease in average rate of transaction fees.

Post-facilitation service fees increased by 23.9% to RMB226.4 million (US$34.6 million) for the first quarter of 2021 from RMB182.7 million in the same period of 2020, primarily due to the increase in outstanding loans serviced by the Company and the rolling impact of deferred transaction fees.

Guarantee income was RMB659.2 million (US$100.6 million) for the first quarter of 2021 compared to RMB1,150.3 million in the same period of 2020, as a result of improved asset quality. The fair value of quality assurance commitment upon loan origination is released as guarantee income systematically over the term of the loans subject to quality assurance commitment. As we transitioned our business towards quality borrowers, the fair value of quality assurance commitment upon loan origination decreased due to better asset quality which results in the decrease in guarantee income.

Net interest income decreased by 11.0% to RMB280.4 million (US$42.8 million) for the first quarter of 2021, from RMB315.0 million in the same period of 2020, primarily due to the reduction in the outstanding loan balances of consolidated trusts partially offset by the higher loan origination volume originated outside mainland China. 

Other revenue increased by 121.0% to RMB185.2 million (US$28.3 million) for the first quarter of 2021 from RMB83.8 million in the same period of 2020, primarily due to increase customer referral fees to other third-party platforms. 

Origination and servicing expenses increased by 65.6% to RMB413.1 million (US$63.0 million) for the first quarter of 2021 from RMB249.5 million in the same period of 2020, primarily due to the increases in employees expenditures and fees paid to third party service providers.

Sales and marketing expenses increased by 266.4% to RMB334.2 million (US$51.0 million) for the first quarter of 2021 from RMB91.2 million in the same period of 2020, primarily due to the increase in online customer acquisition expenses as a result of the increase in newly registered users on the Company's platform.

General and administrative expenses increased by 16.8% to RMB112.6 million (US$17.2 million) for the first quarter of 2021 compared to RMB96.4 million in the same period of 2020, due to increased expenditures in employees benefits.

Research and development expenses increased by 7.1% to RMB93.8 million (US$14.3 million) for the first quarter of 2021, compared to RMB87.6 million in the same period of 2020, due to increased investments into technology development.

Credit losses for quality assurance commitment were RMB444.9 million (US$67.9 million) for the first quarter of 2021 compared to RMB796.8 million in the same period of 2020 due to improved asset quality partially offset by the increase in loan origination volume.

Provision for loans receivables was RMB18.8 million (US$2.9 million) for the first quarter of 2021, compared with RMB295.9 million in the same period of 2020, primarily due to improved asset quality as well as the decrease in loan receivables during the quarter. 

Provision for accounts receivables and other receivables increased by 20.2% to RMB39.8 million (US$6.1 million) for the first quarter of 2021, compared with RMB33.1 million in the same period of 2020 as a result of increase in loan origination volume.

Operating profit increased by 43.9% to RMB655.7 million (US$100.1 million) for the first quarter of 2021 from RMB455.8 million in the same period of 2020.

Non-GAAP adjusted operating profit, which excludes share-based compensation expenses before tax, was RMB671.2 million (US$102.4 million) for the first quarter of 2021, representing an increase of 44.7% from RMB463.8 million in the same period of 2020.

Other income decreased by 20.6% to RMB42.7 million (US$6.5 million) for the first quarter of 2021 from RMB53.8 million in the same period of 2020, mainly due to the decrease in government subsidies.

Income tax expenses were RMB105.7 million (US$16.1 million) for the first quarter of 2021, compared with RMB89.2 million in the same period of 2020, mainly due to the increase in pre-tax profit and change in revenue contribution from different subsidiaries with different tax rates.

Net profit was RMB592.8 million (US$90.5 million) for the first quarter of 2021, compared with RMB420.4 million in the same period of 2020.
