Loan volume was generally down across the industry due to the challenging market conditions. While we are responding to the current environment, we are not losing sight of our long-term strategy. By focusing on high profile borrowers, reducing risks and improving our asset quality, we are prepared for our resumed growth. Our actions have resulted in significantly higher average investment and higher average borrowing per person, which demonstrates our customers’ strong confidence in our platform.”
Fourth Quarter 2019 Financial Results
Net revenue was RMB352.5 million (US$50.6 million), representing a decrease of 50.4% from the same period of 2018.
Revenue from loan facilitation services was RMB276.6 million (US$39.7 million), representing a decrease of 51.0% from the same period of 2018, primarily due to the decreased loan origination volume. Loan facilitation service fees from loans funded by institutional funding partners were RMB45.7 million (US$6.6 million), compared with none from the same period of 2018.
Revenue from post-origination services was RMB48.6 million (US$7.0 million), representing a decrease of 32.1% from the same period of 2018. The decrease was due to the decreased loan origination as well as the cease of post-origination loan services previously served by Shanghai Caiyin Asset Management Co, Ltd ("Caiyin").
Origination and servicing expense was RMB78.3 million (US$11.3 million), representing a decrease of 33.4% from the same period of 2018, primarily due to decreased volume of loans facilitated by the Company.
Allowance for uncollectible receivables and contract assets was RMB56.0 million (US$8.0 million), representing a decrease of 28.6% from the same period of 2018, primarily due to the decrease in loan origination volume.
Sales and marketing expense was RM132.4 million (US$19.0 million), representing a decrease of 19.3% from the same period of 2018, primarily due to the reduced advertisement spending for promotional activities.
General and administrative expense was RMB75.9 million (US$10.9 million), representing an increase of 13.0% from the same period of 2018. The increase was primarily due to the increased share-based compensation expense allocated to general and administrative expenses.
Research and development expense was RMB38.6 million (US$5.5 million), representing a decrease of 46.3% from the same period of 2018. The decrease was primarily due to our strict cost control to sustain our profit margin which resulted in a significant cut in research and development expense.
Losses from operations was RMB28.9 million (US$4.1 million), compared with an operating income of RMB170.2 million in the same period of 2018.
Net income was RMB22.6 million (US$3.2 million), compared with a net income of RM162.3 million in the same period of 2018.
Cash and cash equivalents were RMB122.1 million (US$17.5 million) as of December 31, 2019, compared with RMB41.4 million as of December 31, 2018.
Full Year 2019 Financial Results
Net revenue was RMB2,230.2 million (US$320.3 million), representing a decrease of 22.6% from the same period of 2018.
Revenue from loan facilitation services was RMB1,747.1 million (US$251 million), representing a decrease of 22.2% from 2018, primarily due to the decreased loan origination volume. Loan facilitation service fees from loan funded by institutional funding partners were RMB80.7 million (US$11.6 million), compared with none from 2018.
Revenue from post-origination services was RMB267.0 million (US$38.4 million), representing an increase of 10.3% from 2018, primarily due to the accumulated loans originated during prior periods, offset by the decrease in loan origination volume as well as the cease of post-origination service previously provided by Caiyin.
Origination and servicing expense was RMB425.6 million (US$61.1 million), representing an increase of 5.9% from 2018, primarily due to the increased cost of credit assessment and loan collection.
Allowance for uncollectible receivables and contract assets was RMB238.4 million (US$34.2 million), representing a decrease of 10.4% from 2018, primarily due to the decrease in loan origination volume and the increased efforts in credit assessment and risk control.
Sales and marketing expense was RM606.0 million (US$87.1 million), representing a decrease of 16.6% from 2018, primarily due to the reduced advertisement spending for promotional activities.
General and administrative expense was RM224.1 million (US$32.2 million), representing an increase of 49.0% from 2018. The increase was primarily due to the increased share-based compensation expense allocated to general and administrative expenses.
Research and development expense was RMB201.4 million (US$28.9 million), representing an increase of 9.3% from 2018. The increase was primarily due to an increase in fees paid to third parties for advanced technology and equipments, and an increase in share-based compensation expense allocated to research and development expenses.
Income from operations was RMB534.7 million (US$76.8 million), compared with an operating income of RMB685.2 million in 2018.
