The significant year-over-year increase of monthly fees billed to borrowers was primarily attributable to the increase of loans generated from online channels, which features a fee collection schedule with monthly payments in addition to the upfront portion.

Excluding the expense mentioned above, general and administrative expenses in the third quarter of 2016 was RMB 107.7 million, accounting for 12.3% of total net revenue.

Income tax expense in the fourth quarter of 2016 was RMB 30.7 million (US$4.4 million), compared to income tax expense of RMB 44.8 million in the same period of 2015. The decrease of income tax expense was primarily because the Company’s subsidiary Yi Ren Heng Ye Technology Development (Beijing) Co., Ltd. became qualified as a software enterprise which is confirmed by local tax bureau and makes it eligible for an exemption of enterprise income tax for 2015 and 2016 and a favorable enterprise income tax rate of 12.5% for 2017, 2018 and 2019.

The decrease of cash and cash equivalents was primarily due to the Company’s increased investment in short-term assets, presented as available-for-sale investments and held-to-maturity investments on balance sheet, to enhance its return from operating cash. As of December 31, 2016, balance of held-to-maturity investments was RMB 98.9 million (US$14.2 million) and balance of available-for-sale investments was RMB 1,158.0 million (US$166.8 million), compared to balance of held-to-maturity investments of RMB 172.5 million and balance of available-for-sale investments of RMB 298.0 million as of September 30, 2016.

Risk Reserve Fund.

4 / 13

In the fourth quarter of 2016, Yirendai accrued liabilities from risk reserve fund guarantee of RMB 528.9 million (US$76.2 million), which is equal to 8% of the loans facilitated through its marketplace during the period.

As of December 31, 2016, liabilities from risk reserve fund guarantee was RMB 1,471.0 million (US$211.9 million).

Delinquency rates. As of December 31, 2016, the overall delinquency rate for loans that are 15-89 days past due was 1.7%, decreased from 1.9% as of September 30, 2016. The decrease of delinquency rates was due to the increase of loan facilitation volume and more efficient risk management for loans generated from offline channels.

Cumulative M3+ net charge-off rates⁵. As of December 31, 2016, the cumulative M3+ net charge-off rates for Grade A, B, C, and D loans originated in 2015 were 5.1%, 6.6%, 8.2% and 6.7%, respectively, compared to 4.6%, 5.3%, 6.7% and 5.2% as of September 30, 2016. As the 2015 vintage loans continues to mature, the charge off level is consistent with our risk performance expectation.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In evaluating the business, the Company considers and uses several non-GAAP financial measures, such as fees billed and adjusted EBITDA as supplemental measures to review and assess operating performance. We believe that fees billed and adjusted EBITDA 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.

Currency Conversion

Effective April 1, 2016, the Company changed its reporting currency from US$ to RMB. The change in reporting currency is to reduce the impact of increased volatility of the RMB to the US$ exchange rate on the Company’s reported operating results. The aligning of the reporting currency with the underlying operations will better depict the Company’s results of operations for each period. Prior to April 1, 2016, the Company reported its annual and quarterly consolidated statement of operations, cash flow data and balance sheet in US$. In this announcement, the unaudited financial results for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 are stated in RMB. The related financial statements prior to April 1, 2016 have been recast to reflect RMB as the reporting currency for comparison to the financial results for the quarter and the year ended December 31, 2016.
