The increase was attributed to a gradual recovery of the sales of our insurance products post the regulatory changes.

Our advanced AI capabilities have delivered quantifiable results—more personalized customer engagement, enhanced risk management with predictive analytics and fraud detection, and improving service efficiency with compliant, tailored solutions.

By executing on this strategy, we are well-positioned to sustain long-term success."
"Our second quarter results demonstrate the Company's operational resilience and mark a return to profitability growth following five consecutive quarters of decline.

Mr. William Hui, Chief Financial Officer commented. "Our continued positive cash flow performance in the second quarter positions us to weather market uncertainty and make targeted investments in priority areas to support future growth."
Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results
Total net revenue in the second quarter of 2025 was RMB1,652.1 million (US$230.6 million), representing an increase of 10% from RMB1,496.5 million in the second quarter of 2024. Particularly, in the second quarter of 2025, revenue from financial services business was RMB1,489.6 million (US$207.9 million), representing an increase of 75% from RMB851.0 million in the same period of 2024. The increase was attributed to persistent demand for our small revolving loan products, as well as a growing repeat borrowing rate among existing borrowers. The financial service revenue accounts for 90% of the total net revenue. Revenue from insurance brokerage business was RMB58.1 million (US$8.1 million), representing a decrease of 36% from RMB91.5 million in the second quarter of 2024. The decrease was attributable to lower overall commission rates and product changes. Net revenue from consumption and lifestyle business and others was RMB104.4 million (US$14.6 million), compared with the revenue of RMB554.0 million in the second quarter of 2024. The decrease was mainly attributed to our strategic decision to wind down this segment and refocus on our core financial services. Additionally, referral revenue—generated when customers were referred to other platforms for a fee—was reclassified to the financial services business segment, as these customers were originally sourced from that business unit.
Sales and marketing expenses in the second quarter of 2025 were RMB345.2 million (US$48.2 million), compared to RMB285.1 million in the same period of 2024. This increase was due to increase in loan facilitation volume.
Origination, servicing and other operating costs in the second quarter of 2025 were RMB160.9 million (US$22.5 million), compared to RMB246.5 million in the same period of 2024. This decrease was primarily due to lower commission costs resulting from lower sales volume from our insurance brokerage business.
Research and development expenses in the second quarter of 2025 were RMB107.7 million (US$15.0 million), compared to RMB55.8 million in the same period of 2024. The increase is attributable to increase in AI spending, R&D headcount and capital investment in technology.
General and administrative expenses in the second quarter of 2025 were RMB78.9 million (US$11.0 million), compared to RMB68.7 million in the same period of 2024. The increase was primarily due to increase in personnel related costs to support the growth of the business.
Allowance for contract assets, receivables and others in the second quarter of 2025 was RMB214.7 million (US$30.0 million), compared to RMB123.3 million in the same period of 2024. The increase reflects higher growth in volume of loans facilitated.
Provision for contingent liabilities in the second quarter of 2025 was RMB385.7 million (US$53.8 million), compared to RMB278.9 million in the same period of 2024. The increase is attributable to increase in loan volume facilitated under risk-taking model. [1]
Fair value adjustments gain/(loss) in the second quarter of 2025 was a gain of RMB28.0 million (US$3.9 million) compared to a loss of RMB58.4 million in first quarter 2025 and a gain of RMB38.7 million in the same period of 2024. The quarterly change was mainly due to the fair value change in crypto assets, driven by an increase in the price of Ethereum. As of June 30, 2025, the company holds 11,197.5 Ethereum.
Income tax expense in the second quarter of 2025 was RMB63.9 million (US$8.9 million).
Net income in the second quarter of 2025 was RMB357.5 million (US$49.9 million), as compared to RMB409.5 million in the same period in 2024. The decrease was primarily due to the growing loan volume facilitated under our risk-taking model, resulting in substantial upfront provisions required by the current accounting principles.
Adjusted EBITDA[2] (non-GAAP) in the second quarter of 2025 was RMB351.4 million (US$49.1 million), compared to RMB484.7 million in the same period of 2024 and RMB325.0 million in the first quarter of 2025.
Basic and diluted income per ADS in the second quarter of 2025 were RMB4.1356 (US$0.5774) and RMB4.1072 (US$0.5734) respectively, compared to a basic income per ADS of RMB4.7390 and a diluted income per ADS of RMB4.6880 in the same period of 2024.
Net cash generated from operating activities in the second quarter of 2025 was RMB411.2 million (US$57.4 million), compared to RMB368.9 million in the same period of 2024.
Net cash used in investing activities in the second quarter of 2025 was RMB752.2 million (US$105.0 million), compared to RMB536.9 million in the same period of 2024.
Net cash provided by financing activities in the second quarter of 2025 was RMB447.6 million (US$62.5 million), compared to RMB125.9 million used in financing activities in the same period of 2024.
As of June 30, 2025, cash and cash equivalents were RMB4,098.9 million (US$572.2 million), compared to RMB4,043.6 million as of March 31, 2025. As of June 30, 2025, the balance of financial investment was RMB418.9 million (US$58.5 million), compared to RMB404.1 million as of March 31, 2025.
Delinquency rates[3]. As of June 30, 2025, the delinquency rates for loans that are past due for 1-30 days, 31-60 days and 61-90 days were 1.7%, 1.1% and 1.0%, respectively, compared to 1.6%, 1.2% and 1.2%, respectively, as of March 31, 2025.
[1] The risk-taking model refers to the framework in which the company assumes the credit risk for the loans facilitated on our platform.
[2] "Adjusted EBITDA" is a non-GAAP financial measure. For more information on this non-GAAP financial measure, please see the section of "Operating Highlights and Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures" and the table captioned "Reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA" set forth at the end of this press release.
[3] Delinquency rates" refers to the outstanding principal balance of loans that were 1-30 days, 31-60 days and 61-90 days past due as a percentage of the total performing outstanding principal balance of loans as of a specific date. Loans originating outside mainland China are not included in the calculation. We define a performing loan as one that is being repaid according to the agreed terms and has not become delinquent for more than 90 days.
Dividend PolicyUnder the Company's semi-annual dividend policy, the Company will distribute a cash dividend for the first half of 2025, amounting to US$0.22 per American depositary share (the "ADS"), each representing two ordinary shares of the Company, par value US$0.0001 per share. The dividend is expected to be paid on or about October 15, 2025 to holders of the Company's ordinary shares and ADSs of record as of the close of business on September 30, 2025, based on Hong Kong time and New York time, respectively.
Business OutlookBased on the Company's preliminary assessment of business and market conditions, the Company projects the total revenue in the third quarter of 2025 to be between RMB1.4 billion and RMB1.6 billion, driven by loan growth from domestic market and international markets, and further market penetration into new customer segment.
This is the Company's current and preliminary view, which is subject to changes and uncertainties.
Non-GAAP Financial MeasuresIn evaluating the business, the Company considers and uses several non-GAAP financial measures, such as adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin as supplemental measures to review and assess operating performance. We believe these non-GAAP measures provide useful information about our core operating results, enhance the overall understanding of our past performance and prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by our management in our financial and operational decision-making. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. Other companies, including peer companies in the industry, may calculate these non-GAAP measures differently, which may reduce their usefulness as a comparative measure. The Company compensates for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measure, all of which should be considered when evaluating our performance. See "Operating Highlights and Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP measures" at the end of this press release.
