Mr. Yan Dinggui, the Founder, Director and Chief Executive Officer, commented: “I am excited to report another solid quarter of strong business performance. Most notably, we completed the business transition upon which we embarked at the start of the year. I am proud to announce that as of November 10, 2020, the outstanding loan balance of our legacy P2P lending business was reduced to zero! This marks a significant milestone. Jiayin has successfully transformed to a finance technology company fully funded only by institutions. Considering that at this time one year ago, our platform funding was over 90% from individuals, this rapid transition demonstrates our agility and outstanding execution capability.”

Yan added, “In addition to successfully completing our funding transition, we continued to deliver encouraging business results despite the challenging environment. The loans we facilitated performed very well, investor confidence remained strong, we improved operating efficiency, and we maintained attractive profitability. In the quarter, our net income reached RMB88.4 million, up 8.1% year over year and 115.1% sequentially. This remarkable improvement demonstrates both the effectiveness of our growth strategy and our strong execution. Jiayin always strives to operate conservatively but profitably. We believe that our strong underlying business and brand recognition will enable us to achieve robust growth for the coming years.”

Third Quarter 2020 Financial Results

Net revenue was RMB401.3 million (US$59.1 million), representing a decrease of 21.4% from the same period of 2019.

Revenue from loan facilitation services was RMB290.6 million (US$42.8 million), representing a decrease of 26.7% from the same period of 2019. The decrease was primarily due to the lower loan origination volume and the shift to institutional funding partners.

Revenue from post-origination services was RMB33.7 million (US$5.0 million), representing a decrease of 43.2% from the same period of 2019. The decrease was due to the lower outstanding loan balance.

Other revenue was RMB77.0 million (US11.3 million), representing an increase of 40.0% from the same period of 2019. The increase was primarily due to the variable consideration related to automated investment program recognized from loans previously facilitated under the P2P business.

Origination and servicing expenses were RMB59.5 million (US$8.8 million), representing a decrease of 41.1% from the same period of 2019, primarily due to the lower volume of loans facilitated by the Company and reduced collection costs as the company no longer provides such services under its new business model.

Allowance for uncollectable receivables, contract assets and loan receivables was RMB15.8 million (US$2.3 million), representing a decrease of 76.7% from the same period of 2019, primarily due to the the overall decrease of facilitation volume, as well as the relatively lower credit risk of the new business model.

Sales and marketing expenses were RMB99.5 million (US$14.7 million), representing a decrease of 34.7% from the same period of 2019, primarily due to the lower customer acquisition expenses and reduced advertising spending for promotional activities.

General and administrative expenses were RMB37.3 million (US$5.5 million), representing a decrease of 21.5% from the same period of 2019, primarily due to the decrease in share-based compensation expense and the decrease in salaries and personnel related costs, as well as other business-related expenses.

Research and development expenses were RMB39.2 million (US$5.8 million), representing a decrease of 33.1% from the same period of 2019, primarily due to the decrease in share-based compensation expense and a more streamlined team in the technology and development department resulting from the business transition.

Income from operations was RMB150.0 million (US$22.1 million), representing an increase of 79.6% from the same period of 2019, and an increase of 212.5% sequentially.

Other income (expense), net was a net loss of RMB32.8 million (US$4.8 million), compared with a net gain of RMB7.3 million for the corresponding period in 2019. The loss in this quarter was primarily due to the estimated loss of short-term investments.

Net income was RMB88.4 million (US$13.0 million), representing an increase of 8.1% from the same period of 2019, and an increase of 115.1% sequentially.

Cash and cash equivalents were RMB94.8 million (US$14.0 million) as of September 30, 2020, compared with RMB69.9 million as of June 30, 2020.
