Generally, Chinese entities tend to pay their vendors on longer timelines than the timelines typically observed in U.S. commerce. Trade receivables related to our AI projects (exclusive of FinTech services) represent 66% of our gross trade
receivables, while substantially all of the remaining gross trade receivables balance resulted from the FinTech services we discontinued during 2018.
