Third Quarter 2021 Financial Results
Net revenue for the third quarter of 2021 increased by 40.8% to RMB2,525.1 million (US$391.9 million) from RMB1,793.3 million in the same period of 2020, primarily due to the increase in loan facilitation service fees and post facilitation service fees.
Loan facilitation service fees increased by 121.1% to RMB1,075.1 million (US$166.8 million) for the third quarter of 2021 from RMB486.3 million in the same period of 2020, primarily due to the increase in transaction volume.
Post-facilitation service fees increased by 123.8% to RMB361.2 million (US$56.1 million) for the third quarter of 2021 from RMB161.4 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 RMB644.5 million (US$100.0 million) for the third quarter of 2021 compared to RMB747.1 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 better quality borrowers, the fair value of quality assurance commitment upon loan origination decreased due to better asset quality which resulted in the decrease in guarantee income.
Net interest income increased by 27.5% to RMB332.6 million (US$51.6 million) for the third quarter of 2021 from RMB260.9 million in the same period of 2020, primarily due to increase in transaction volume originated in the international markets.
Other revenue decreased by 18.8% to RMB111.7 million (US$17.3 million) for the third quarter of 2021 from RMB137.6 million in the same period of 2020, primarily due to the decrease in customer referral fees from other third-party platforms.
Origination and servicing expenses increased by 35.6% to RMB459.6 million (US$71.3 million) for the third quarter of 2021 from RMB338.9 million in the same period of 2020, primarily due to the increase in employees’ expenditure and fees paid to third party service providers.
Sales and marketing expenses increased by 236.1% to RMB387.5 million (US$60.1 million) for the third quarter of 2021 from RMB115.3 million in the same period of 2020, primarily due to the increase in online customer acquisition expenses as a result of increased efforts in acquiring new borrowers on the Company’s platform.
Research and development expenses increased by 12.4% to RMB104.5 million (US$16.2 million) for the third quarter of 2021 from RMB93.0 million in the same period of 2020, due to increased investments in technology development.
General and administrative expenses increased by 16.9% to RMB123.2 million (US$19.1 million) for the third quarter of 2021 from RMB105.4 million in the same period of 2020, due to increased expenditures in employees benefits.
Provision for accounts receivables and other receivables decreased by 6.3% to RMB32.9 million (US$5.1 million) for the third quarter of 2021, from RMB35.1 million in the same period of 2020 as a result of improved credit quality partially offset by the increase in outstanding loan balances.
Provision for loans receivables was RMB142.5 million (US$22.1 million) for the third quarter of 2021, compared with RMB90.0 million in the same period of 2020, and the increase was primarily due to the higher transaction volume originated in international markets.
Credit losses for quality assurance commitment were RMB545.1 million (US$84.6 million) for the third quarter of 2021 compared to RMB326.6 million in the same period of 2020, primarily due to the increase in outstanding loan balances partially offset by improved asset quality.
Operating profit increased by 5.9% to RMB729.9 million (US$113.3 million) for the third quarter of 2021 from RMB689.0 million in the same period of 2020.
Non-GAAP adjusted operating income, which excludes share-based compensation expenses before tax, was RMB751.3 million (US$116.6 million) for the third quarter of 2021, representing an increase of 7.7% from RMB697.6 million in the same period of 2020.
Other income decreased by 43.7% to RMB14.8 million (US$2.3 million) for the third quarter of 2021 from RMB26.3 million in the same period of 2020, mainly due to fair value change of investments.
Income tax expenses were RMB112.2 million (US$17.4 million) for the third quarter of 2021, compared with RMB118.4 million in the same period of 2020, and the decrease was mainly due to change in preferential tax rate for certain qualified subsidiaries, partially offset by the increase in pre-tax profit.
Net profit was RMB632.4 million (US$98.2 million) for the third quarter of 2021, compared to RMB596.9 million in the same period of 2020.
Diluted net profit per ADS was RMB2.15 (US$0.33) and diluted net profit per share was RMB0.43 (US$0.07), an increase of 4.9% year over year. Non-GAAP diluted net profit per ADS was RMB2.21 (US$0.34) and Non-GAAP diluted net profit per share was RMB0.44 (US$0.07), an increase of 6.3% year over year. Each ADS represents five Class A ordinary shares of the Company.
As of September 30, 2021, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of RMB3,349.8 million (US$519.9 million) and short-term investments, mainly in wealth management products, of RMB1,738.6 million (US$269.8 million).

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We use Non-GAAP operating profit, Non-GAAP basic and diluted net profit per share and per ADS which are Non-GAAP financial measures, in evaluating our operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. We believe that adjusted operating profit helps identify underlying trends in our business by excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses and expected discretionary measures. We believe that adjusted operating profit provides useful information about our operating results, enhances the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects and allows for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by our management in its financial and operational decision-making.
Non-GAAP adjusted operating profit, Non-GAAP basic and diluted net profit per share and per ADS are not defined under U.S. GAAP and is not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and when assessing our operating performance, cash flows or our liquidity, investors should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for net (loss)/income, cash flows provided by operating activities or other consolidated statements of operation and cash flow data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company encourages investors and others to review our financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
For more information on this Non-GAAP financial measure, please see the table captioned “Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP results” set forth at the end of this press release.

The Americas is one of the earliest overseas markets that Wuliangye has entered, said a representative of Wuliangye, adding that the baijiu maker will promote Chinese culture to local consumers through the “culture plus experience” operation mode, and explore cooperation opportunities with local markets in product services and cultural exchanges via the consumption scenario of “Chinese cuisine plus Chinese baijiu”, fostering the steady development of the brand in the global market in a diverse way.

CGTN: How China contributes to global poverty reduction, drives modernization with developing nations
BEIJING, Nov. 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — John Kimani, an expert from the Kenya Agricultural and Livestock Research Organization, is enthusiastic about the potential of a new type of rice developed by China to make a new contribution to food security and the fight against poverty in his homeland.
Kimani, who is in charge of the rice fields, said the new rice can yield up to 7.5 tonnes per hectare, more than doubling the output of traditional Kenyan varieties. The new rice variety is expected to be approved in Kenya this year and bring new hope of attaining food self-sufficiency to this African country, where over 80 percent of its rice is imported.
In recent years, China has assisted African countries in poverty reduction and supported the two sides in carrying out poverty reduction exchanges and cooperation, bringing tangible benefits to the local people.
China will always be a reliable long-term partner of fellow developing countries and a doer and go-getter working for the cause of global development, Chinese President Xi Jinping said on Monday while delivering a speech during the first session of the 19th G20 Summit in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
“A single flower does not make spring. China wants to see a hundred flowers in full blossom and will go hand in hand with fellow developing countries toward modernization,” Xi said.
Aiding global poverty reduction
To date, China has lifted nearly 800 million of its people out of extreme poverty, meeting the poverty reduction target of the UN’s 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development ahead of schedule.
To tackle poverty, China has made targeted policies tailored to each village, household, and person and facilitated growth by vigorously channeling talent, funds, and technologies to underdeveloped regions. It also helped localities generate growth by fostering industries with distinctive features and upgrading infrastructure, all based on their own conditions.
“If China can make it, other developing countries can make it too. This is what China’s battle against poverty says to the world,” Xi said.
While committed to eradicating poverty at home, China has collaborated with other countries to reduce poverty worldwide, fostering a global community with a shared future for mankind.
In Africa, China has set up and implemented 47 poverty reduction and agricultural projects, trained close to 9,000 agricultural personnel, shared over 300 advanced and applicable technologies, and benefited over 1 million smallholders under the poverty reduction and agricultural development program.
China also actively helps developing countries improve their infrastructure and strengthen connectivity, promoting local economic and social development.
According to a CGTN poll, 91.4 percent of respondents agree that China is a strong force in promoting the development, revitalization and shared prosperity of Global South countries.
There should be more bridges of cooperation and less “small yard, high fences” so that more and more developing countries will be better off and achieve modernization, Xi said at the summit.
China’s actions
Closely linking its own development with shared global development, China has always been an active advocate, staunch promoter and continuous contributor to global poverty reduction.
To boost South-South cooperation, China has upgraded the Global Development and South-South Cooperation Fund, increasing its capital to $4 billion. The total number of global development projects established has surpassed 1,000, with over 500 projects completed or currently in implementation.
Calling for moving toward modernization with fellow developing countries, Xi outlined China’s eight actions for global development, covering areas such as pursuing high-quality Belt and Road cooperation, supporting development in Africa, and supporting the G20 in carrying out practical cooperation for the benefit of the Global South.
Xi said the $20 billion in development funds will continue to be put to good use to support developing countries and deepen practical cooperation in areas such as poverty reduction, food security and the digital economy.
He said China has decided to join the Global Alliance Against Hunger and Poverty and voiced support for the G20 in continuing to convene the Development Ministerial Meeting.
Xi has also announced the decision to give all least developed countries with diplomatic relations with China zero-tariff treatment for 100 percent tariff lines. From now to 2030, China’s imports from other developing countries are likely to top $8 trillion.
