Mr. Justin Tang, the Founder, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Company, commented, "We are pleased to see that our established strategy continued to deliver strong results in the third quarter. Our loan facilitation and origination amount reached the high end of our previous guidance, and both our top line and bottom line showed substantial year-over-year improvement. During the quarter, as macroeconomic conditions improved moderately and the regulatory environment stabilized, the personal finance business has returned to normal across the industry, resulting in increased competition. As a result, our unit borrower acquisition cost increased quarter-over-quarter. Our loan delinquencies fluctuated within their historical low-to-middle range. Going forward, we will continue to execute on our proven strategy and enhance our ability to drive long-term growth and returns for our shareholders."

Mr. Kent Li, President of the Company, added, "During the third quarter, our total loan amount facilitated and originated increased by 49% year-over-year and 14% quarter-over-quarter to RMB29 billion, with the total outstanding loan balance reaching nearly RMB50 billion at the end of September 2023. Our delinquency rates for all outstanding loans past due for 31-60 days and 91-180 days were 1.11% and 2.50%, respectively, at the end of the quarter, compared with 0.77% and 2.22%, respectively, a year ago. We have enhanced our efforts to acquire more quality borrowers, but we expect the delinquency rates to continue to fluctuate for some time. We will maintain healthy asset quality leveraging our cutting-edge risk management system and focusing more on asset quality than on expanding the borrower base."

Mr. Frank Fuya Zheng, Chief Financial Officer of the Company, added, "We are very pleased with our solid financial results in the third quarter. Total net revenue increased by 56% year-over-year and 14.5% quarter-over-quarter to RMB1,397 million. While our net income saw a remarkable 64% year-over-year increase to RMB347 million, there was a slight decline quarter-over-quarter. This decrease was primarily attributed to the rising costs of borrower acquisition and managing asset quality risks. We remain dedicated to achieving balanced growth in revenue and earnings in the long term, which is clearly a key driver of shareholder value. To achieve this goal, we will take a comprehensive consideration of borrower acquisition costs and risk control based on close monitoring of market dynamics, to ensure that we grow both our revenue scale and profits in a sustainable manner."

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, (ii) adjusted net income per basic ADS, and (iii) adjusted net income per diluted ADS, 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.
