First Quarter 2026 Financial Results
Net revenue was RMB756.7 million (US$109.7 million), representing a decrease of 57.4% from the same period of 2025.
Revenue from loan facilitation services was RMB460.1 million (US$66.7 million), representing a decrease of 68.9% from the same period of 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower transaction volume, as well as the service fee adjustments.
Revenue from releasing of guarantee liabilities was RMB217.7 million (US$31.6 million) compared with RMB170.6 million in the same period of 2025. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to the increase in average outstanding loan balances for which the Company provided guarantee services.
Other revenue was RMB78.9 million (US$11.4 million), compared with RMB126.4 million for the same period of 2025. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in the contribution from referral fees.
Facilitation and servicing expense was RMB331.6 million (US$48.1 million), representing a decrease of 1.3% from the same period of 2025.
Allowance for uncollectible receivables, contract assets, prepaid expenses and other current assets and others was RMB1.1 million (US$0.2 million), compared with RMB17.5 million for the same period of 2025, primarily due to the decrease in allowance for oversea contingent guarantees.
Sales and marketing expense was RMB340.1 million (US$49.3 million), representing a decrease of 49.6% from the same period of 2025, primarily due to decreased borrower acquisition expenses.
General and administrative expense was RMB44.1 million (US$6.4 million), representing a decrease of 16.5% from the same period of 2025, primarily due to decreased professional service fees.
Research and development expense was RMB109.8 million (US$15.9 million), representing an increase of 24.6% from the same period of 2025, primarily driven by an increase in technology infrastructure expenses and employee costs.
Loss from operation was RMB70.1 million (US$10.2 million), compared with RMB606.6 million income from operation in the same period of 2025.
Non-GAAP loss from operation was RMB70.1 million (US$10.2 million), compared with RMB606.6 million non-GAAP income from operation in the same period of 2025.
Net loss was RMB61.7 million (US$8.9 million), compared with RMB539.5 million net income in the same period of 2025.

Basic and diluted net loss per ADS were both RMB1.16 (US$0.16) compared with RMB10.12 basic and diluted net income per ADS in the first quarter of 2025. Each ADS represents four Class A ordinary shares of the Company.
Cash and cash equivalents were RMB43.4 million (US$6.3 million) as of March 31, 2026, compared with RMB61.8 million as of December 31, 2025.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measure
We use non-GAAP income from operation, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, in evaluating our operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. We believe that the non-GAAP financial measure helps identify underlying trends in our business by excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses. We believe that non-GAAP financial measure 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 income from operation represents income from operation excluding share-based compensation expenses. Such adjustment has no impact on income tax.
Non-GAAP income from operation is not defined under U.S. GAAP and is not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measure has limitations as analytical tool, and when assessing our operating performance, cash flows or our liquidity, investors should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for income from operation, net income, cash flows provided by operating activities or other consolidated statements of operation and cash flow data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company encourages investors and others to review our financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
For more information on this non-GAAP financial measure, please see the table captioned "Unaudited Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP results" set forth at the end of this press release.
