OneConnect Financial Technology (NYSE: OCFT) reported its Q4 and full-year 2024 financial results, showing significant declines across major metrics. Q4 revenue from continuing operations decreased 52.9% to RMB415 million from RMB882 million year-over-year, primarily due to strategic phasing out of cloud services.

Full-year 2024 revenue dropped to RMB2,248 million from RMB3,522 million in 2023. The company's net loss widened to RMB669 million, compared to RMB211 million in the previous year, mainly due to goodwill impairment of RMB132 million and reversal of deferred tax assets of RMB454 million.

Key performance indicators showed deterioration:

  • Q4 gross margin declined to 34.2% from 39.0%
  • Net margin decreased to -29.8% from -6.0%

  • Il margine lordo del Q4 è sceso al 34,2% rispetto al 39,0%

Insights

OneConnect's Q4 and full year 2024 results reveal severe operational deterioration across most business segments. Q4 revenue plummeted 52.9% year-over-year to RMB415 million, primarily due to the strategic phase-out of cloud services announced in July 2024. Full-year revenue dropped 36.2% to RMB2,248 million.

The company's financial position has significantly worsened, with net loss from continuing operations expanding to RMB669 million in 2024 from RMB211 million in 2023. This deterioration stems from two critical issues: a RMB132 million goodwill impairment and a RMB454 million reversal of deferred tax assets, suggesting management's diminished confidence in future profitability.

Particularly concerning is the comprehensive decline across nearly all business lines: implementation revenue down 21.0%, business origination services down 94.4%, risk management services down 34.5%, and operation support services down 25.4%. Cloud services revenue, once substantial, has effectively disappeared with a 98.5% decrease.

Gross margin compression compounds these issues, with Q4 margins falling to 34.2% from 39.0%, indicating reduced economies of scale. While operating expenses decreased in absolute terms, they increased as a percentage of revenue, reflecting insufficient cost control relative to revenue declines.

The only minor positive is a 52.3% increase in post-implementation support services revenue, though this represents a small fraction of overall business. With cash flow from operations at just RMB55 million for Q4, OneConnect faces significant challenges in stabilizing its financial trajectory amid this substantial business restructuring.

Revenue from continuing operations was RMB415 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, a decrease of 52.9% from RMB882 million during the same period last year, primarily due to a decrease of RMB329 million in revenue from cloud services platform. Implementation revenue was RMB171 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, a decrease of 21.0% from RMB216 million during the same period last year, mainly due to a decrease in demand for implementation of financial services systems in China.

Use of Unaudited Non-IFRS Financial Measures

The unaudited consolidated financial information is prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards ("IFRS") issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") . Non-IFRS measures are used in gross profit and gross margin, adjusted to exclude non-cash items, which consist of amortization of intangible assets recognized in cost of revenue, depreciation of property and equipment recognized in cost of revenue, and share-based compensation expenses recognized in cost of revenue. OneConnect's management regularly review non-IFRS gross profit and non-IFRS gross margin to assess the performance of our business. By excluding non-cash items, these financial metrics allow OneConnect's management to evaluate the cash conversion of one dollar revenue on gross profit. OneConnect uses these non-IFRS financial measures to evaluate its ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. OneConnect believes that non-IFRS financial information, when taken collectively, is helpful to investors because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance, facilitates period-to-period comparisons of results of operations, and assists in comparisons with other companies, many of which use similar financial information. OneConnect also believes that presentation of the non-IFRS financial measures provides useful information to its investors regarding its results of operations because it allows investors greater transparency to the information used by OneConnect's management in its financial and operational decision making so that investors can see through the eyes of the OneConnect's management regarding important financial metrics that the management uses to run the business as well as allowing investors to better understand OneConnect's performance. However, non-IFRS financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, and should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with IFRS, and may be different from similarly-titled non-IFRS measures used by other companies. In light of the foregoing limitations, you should not consider non-IFRS financial measure in isolation from or as an alternative to the financial measure prepared in accordance with IFRS. Whenever OneConnect uses a non-IFRS financial measure, a reconciliation is provided to the most closely applicable financial measure stated in accordance with IFRS. You are encouraged to review the related IFRS financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-IFRS financial measures to their most directly comparable IFRS financial measures. For more information on non-IFRS financial measures, please see the table captioned "Reconciliation of IFRS and non-IFRS results (Unaudited)" set forth at the end of this press release.
