Insights

X Financial's Q2 2024 results show a mixed performance. While total loan amount facilitated decreased 12.1% YoY to RMB22.75 billion, net income increased 13.4% to a record RMB415.3 million. This indicates improved profitability despite lower loan volumes.

Key positives include:

  • Revenue growth of 12.5% YoY to RMB1.37 billion
  • Income from operations up 4% YoY
  • Increase in active borrowers by 11.4% YoY

However, rising delinquency rates (31-60 days: 1.29% vs 0.96% last year; 91-180 days: 4.38% vs 2.50%) are concerning and warrant close monitoring.

The company's focus on profitability over growth seems to be paying off, but maintaining asset quality will be important going forward.

X Financial's strategic shift towards profitability over growth is evident in their Q2 results. The company's decision to ease strict controls on loan volumes in H2 2024 could lead to increased market share, but it's important to watch how this impacts asset quality.

The financing guarantee business, which commenced in H2 2023, is showing promise with RMB45.6 million in guarantee income. This diversification could provide a new revenue stream and potentially lower overall risk.

The company's commitment to shareholder returns through dividends and share repurchases is noteworthy. The semi-annual dividend of $0.17 per ADS and the ongoing share repurchase program could help maintain investor confidence despite the challenging market conditions.

X Financial's Q3 2024 forecast of RMB26-27.5 billion in loan facilitation suggests a return to growth, which could positively impact the stock if asset quality remains stable.

SHENZHEN, China, Aug. 21, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- X Financial (NYSE: XYF) (the "Company" or "we"), a leading online personal finance company in China, today announced its unaudited financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.

We are pleased to have executed this ADS buyback, which provided liquidity to shareholders seeking an exit at a premium price and, at the same time, increased remaining shareholders' stakes in the Company. We are committed to profitable growth while exploring various avenues to further increase returns for our shareholders."

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures Statement

In evaluating our business, we consider and use non-GAAP measures as supplemental measures to review and assess our operating performance. We present the non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by our management to evaluate our operating performance and formulate business plans. We believe that the use of the non-GAAP financial measures facilitates investors' assessment of our operating performance and help investors to identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of certain income or expenses that we include in income (loss) from operations and net income (loss). We also believe that the non-GAAP measures provide useful information about our core 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.

We use in this press release the following non-GAAP financial measures: (i) adjusted net income (loss), (ii) adjusted net income (loss) per basic ADS, (iii) adjusted net income (loss) per diluted ADS, (iv) adjusted net income per basic share, and (v) adjusted net income per diluted share, each of which excludes share-based compensation expense, impairment losses on financial investments, income (loss) from financial investments and impairment losses on long-term investments. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and when assessing our operating performance, investors should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

We mitigate these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures, which should be considered when evaluating our performance. We encourage you to review our financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.

For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned "Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP results" set forth at the end of this press release.

1 Starting in the first quarter of 2024, management has concluded to separate expenses related to borrower acquisitions from origination and servicing expenses and indirect expenses of the borrower acquisitions from
general and administrative expenses to a single line item as theses expenses become more and more significant and thus deemed to be useful to financial statement users. Furtherly, management has determined to embed
the sales and marketing expenses, which is not considered as material, in other line item. In conclusion, management has decided to combine these two line items into one captioned borrower acquisitions and marketing
expenses. Management has correspondingly conformed prior period presentation to current period presentation to enhance comparability. This change in presentation does not affect any subtotal line on the face of
consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
