"As we embark on 2024, our company remains agile, navigating market dynamics and seizing emerging business opportunities to foster long-term value for our esteemed shareholders. Our commitment to maintaining a robust balance sheet through prudent cash management is evident, with net assets totaling RMB11.7 billion as of December 31, 2023, including RMB8.8 billion in cash and cash equivalents, alongside time and structured deposits."

Detailed insights into these endeavors will be communicated in due course."

    "Considering our healthy balance sheet, we firmly believe the current market valuation fails to adequately reflect the intrinsic value and potential of Qudian. Consequently, our Board has approved a new share repurchase program in March 2024 to purchase up to US$300 million worth of Class A ordinary shares or ADSs in the next 36 months starting from June 13, 2024" Mr. Luo elaborated.

    "As of March 13, 2024, the Company has cumulatively purchased 146.7 million ADSs for a total amount of approximately US$675.4 million (an average price of $4.6 per ADS). In the past 12 months ended March 13, the Company has in aggregate purchased 34.7 million ADSs in the open market," Mr. Luo concluded, reaffirming the Company's unwavering commitment to shareholder interests.

    Sales income and others increased to RMB63.8 million (US$9.0 million), which was mostly attributable to sales income generated by last-mile delivery business, compared with RMB19.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, which was mainly attributable to sales income generated by QD Food. We have completely wound down the QD Food business in 2023.

We have wound down the QD Food business.

    Sales and marketing expenses decreased by 93.7% to RMB1.2 million (US$0.2 million) from RMB18.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, primarily due to the winding down of QD Food business.

    Research and development expenses increased by 534.5% to RMB16.1 million (US$2.3 million) from RMB2.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, primarily due to the increase in staff head count as the Company continues to explore new business opportunities, which led to a corresponding increase in staff salaries.

    Expected credit loss for receivables and other assets was RMB9.3 million (US$1.3 million) as compared to a gain of RMB140.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, primarily due to credit loss for other assets.

    Interest and investment income, net decreased by 93.6% to RMB14.3 million (US$2.0 million) from RMB224.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, mainly due to the decrease in market value of investments in the fourth quarter of 2023.

    Loss on derivative instrument was RMB35.5 million (US$5.0 million), compared to a gain of RMB262.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, primarily due to the decrease in quoted price of the underlying equity securities relating to the derivative instruments we held.

    Research and development expenses decreased by 18% to RMB47.8 million (US$6.7 million) from RMB58.3 million for 2022.

    Last-mile Delivery Business

    Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    We use Non-GAAP net income/loss attributable to Qudian's shareholders, a Non-GAAP financial measure, in evaluating our operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. We believe that Non-GAAP net income/loss attributable to Qudian's shareholders helps identify underlying trends in our business by excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses, which are non-cash charges, and convertible bonds buyback income, which is non-cash and non-recurring. We believe that Non-GAAP net income/loss attributable to Qudian's shareholders 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 net income/loss attributable to Qudian's shareholders is not defined under U.S. GAAP and is not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. This Non-GAAP financial measure has limitations as an analytical tool, 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.

    We mitigate these limitations by reconciling the Non-GAAP financial measure to the most comparable U.S. GAAP performance measure, all of which should be considered when evaluating our performance.

    For more information on this Non-GAAP financial measure, please see the table captioned "Unaudited Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results" set forth at the end of this press release.
