BEIJING, CHINA, July 23, 2018 – Hexindai Inc. (NASDAQ: HX) (“Hexindai” or the “Company”), a fast-growing consumer lending marketplace in China, announced today that the board of directors of Hexindai has declared a cash dividend of $0.40 per ordinary share, which is equivalent to US$0.40 per American Depositary Share (“ADS”), each of which represents one ordinary share. Holders of the Company’s ordinary shares, including ordinary shares represented by ADSs, at 5:00 pm on August 2, 2018 (U.S. Eastern Time) will be entitled to receive the cash dividend. The cash dividend will consist of an annual dividend pursuant to the newly adopted annual dividend policy of US$0.27 per ordinary share (or US$0.27 per ADS), and a special cash dividend of US$0.13 per ordinary share (or US$0.13 per ADS).

On July 19, 2018, the board of directors approved an annual dividend policy. Under this policy, annual dividends will be set at an amount equivalent to approximately 15-25% of our anticipated net income after tax in each year commencing from fiscal year 2018. On July 19, 2018, the board of directors also approved a special cash dividend of US$0.13 per ordinary share (or US$0.13 per ADS). The declaration of future cash dividends, pursuant to the Company’s dividend policy, is subject to final discretion of the board of directors and is based on a number of factors, including but not limited to, the Company’s future operations and earnings, capital requirements and surplus, general financial condition, contractual restrictions and other factors that the board of directors may deem relevant. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that dividends in the future will be equal or similar in amount to the amounts described in this press release or that the board of directors will not decide to suspend or discontinue, altogether, the payment of cash dividends in the future.

Citibank, N.A., the depositary bank for the Company’s ADS program (the “ADS Depositary”), expects to pay out dividends to ADS holders on or around August 10, 2018. Dividends to be paid to the Company’s ADS holders through the ADS Depositary will be subject to the terms of the deposit agreement by and among the Company, the ADS Depositary and the holders and beneficial owners of ADSs issued thereunder, including the fees and expenses payable thereunder.
