Mr. Justin Tang, the Founder, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Company, commented, “We are pleased to report our financial and operational results for 2018. Despite a volatile market environment, we facilitated RMB36,913 million in loans in 2018 while generating RMB3,540.6 million in revenue, representing an increase of 98.1% from the prior year.

Since the second half of 2018, the industry has been under strict government oversight with many small and illegal lending platforms gradually being weeded out of the market. We are confident that a well-regulated industry will provide significant future growth opportunities and generate strong borrower demand for our personal finance products. We strongly support the government’s new regulations and believe that they will help us to improve our overall risk controls and management capabilities, identify prime customers, and provide best-in-class personal financing solutions.

Over the past year, we have been diversifying our funding sources and strengthening our cooperation with financial institutions. For example, we partnered with CITIC Trust, Kunlun Bank and China Foreign Economy and Trade Trust Co., Ltd. and are also in discussions with other nationally renowned financial institutions and trusts. Given that the majority of our products are covered by ZhongAn Insurance, financial institutions have been eager to cooperate with us. Looking ahead to 2019, we expect to have a significant portion of our new funding coming from institutional sources.

On the operating side, we made several big improvements over the past few months.

First, we were one of the few P2P platforms to begin sharing credit information with Baihang Credit, which will integrate, save and process data collected from us and multiple other partner companies. This will strengthen our credit assessment system and allow us to quickly and accurately assess the creditworthiness of borrowers, target a broader user base for financial services, and reduce the cost of risk management.

Second, we were thrilled to engage Citic AIBank Corp. (“AIBank”) as our custodian bank to independently manage all borrowers’ and investors’ funds. AIBank is a highly respected institution that has developed cutting-edge technology and algorithms that will further strengthen trust and security in our online lending platform, improve our overall competitiveness, and ensure that we are compliant with the new regulations.

Third, we launched our new revolving credit product, Xiaoying Wallet, after significant investment in its R&D and testing. We believe that this product demonstrates our leading technology capabilities and swift strategic execution, and it should have enormous growth potential to better meet the needs of our customers. We will continue to leverage our technological expertise and understanding of financial products to improve our business performance and achieve sustainable and healthy development.

Overall, we are pleased with the significant progress we have made and strongly believe that we are ideally positioned to continue benefiting from the enormous growth opportunities in China’s personal finance industry. We will continue to invest in our technology to strengthen our risk management capabilities and develop partnerships with corporate and institutional investors to further diversify our funding sources and generate long-term sustainable growth.

Lastly, I am pleased to announce that the Board of Directors has declared a cash dividend of US$0.10 per ADS for full year 2018 as part of our new annual dividend policy. We believe the dividend scheme demonstrates the strong growth potential of our business and future business prospects.”Mr. Simon Cheng, President, said: “We continue to deliver solid growth during difficult macro-economic environment while maintaining healthy credit quality in Q4. We have also made investment in our risk infrastructure and customer acquisition and service capabilities during past quarter which will benefit our future growth.

Adopting fin-tech technologies to promote micro SME lending and consumer lending is clearly stated by Chinese regulator. X Financial’s capability to generate high quality asset from on line micro lending is well recognized and welcomed in retail investment community and institutional investors in China. X Financial is well positioned to work with our partners in this growing area as a leading fin-tech player in China.”

Mr. Kevin Zhang, Chief Financial Officer, added, “We delivered solid results during the fourth quarter and the whole year of 2018. We are happy to see our business begin to recover starting in the fourth quarter following the lows of the third quarter in 2018.

Our total loan facilitation amount, revenue and non-GAAP net income in the fourth quarter increased significantly both quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year. The total loan facilitation amount in the fourth quarter of 2018 was RMB9, 474 million, exceeding our previously announced guidance of RMB8, 000 — RMB8, 500 million, which demonstrates strong market demand and our industry leading position.

Going forward, we will continue to strengthen risk controls across our platform leveraging our strong big data analytics, financial modeling, and credit assessment and fraud detection capabilities, to deliver solid business development and reward our shareholders over the long-term.”

Fourth Quarter 2018 Financial Results

Net revenues in the fourth quarter of 2018 increased by 18.3% to RMB862.9 million (US$125.5 million) from RMB729.2 million in the same period of 2017, primarily due to a change in product mix resulting from a significant increase in the proportion of revenue generated by Xiaoying Card Loan, which carries a higher service fee rate compared with the Company’s other products.

4

Loan facilitation service fees under the direct model in the fourth quarter of 2018 increased by 31.9% to RMB760.9 million (US$110.7 million) from RMB576.9 million in the same period of 2017, primarily due to a change in product mix and a shift in strategy to focus on loan facilitation services through the direct model following the cessation of the online intermediary model in April 2017 and a portion of the offline intermediary model with funding from financial institutions in February 2018 to comply with recent regulatory requirements.

Loan facilitation service fees under the intermediary model in the fourth quarter of 2018 decreased by 90.9% to RMB5.9 million (US$0.9 million) from RMB65.4 million in the same period of 2017, primarily due to a decrease in the total volume of products offered under the intermediary model as the Company shifted its strategy to focus on loan facilitation services through the direct model.

Post-origination service fees in the fourth quarter of 2018 increased by 189.1% to RMB46.0 million (US$6.7 million) from RMB15.9 million in the same period of 2017, primarily due to a significant increase in transaction volumes of Xiaoying Card Loan in 2018 for loans with weighted average contractual terms of 10~11 months. Revenues from post-origination services are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the underlying loans as the services are being provided.

Financing income in the fourth quarter of 2018 decreased by 49.7% to RMB17.1 million (US$2.5 million) from RMB34.0 million in the same period of 2017, primarily due to the termination of a portion of the consolidated trusts administered by unrelated third-party trust companies that were offered to investors through the Company’s consolidated trust business.

Other revenue in the fourth quarter of 2018 decreased by 11.0% to RMB32.9 million (US$4.8 million) from RMB37.0 million in the same period of 2017, primarily due to a decrease in guarantee revenue associated with loans facilitated under the Old ZhongAn model8, which have substantially expired before the end of third quarter of 2018.

Origination and servicing expenses in the fourth quarter of 2018 increased by 27.4% to RMB327.5 million (US$47.6 million) from RMB257.0 million in the same period of 2017, primarily due to an increase in commission fees, and an increase in collection expenses resulting from the increase in loan transactions during the first three quarters of 2018.

General and administrative expenses in the fourth quarter of 2018 increased by 63.3% to RMB69.6 million (US$10.1 million) from RMB42.6 million in the same period of 2017, primarily due to an increase in share-based compensation expenses and professional service fees.

Sales and marketing expenses in the fourth quarter of 2018 increased by 89.6% to RMB52.4 million (US$7.6 million) from RMB27.7 million in the same period of 2017, primarily due to an increase in advertising campaigns aimed at strengthening the Company’s image.

8  Refers to the arrangement with ZhongAn prior to September 2017, under which ZhongAn initially reimbursed the loan principal and interest to the investor upon the borrower’s default, where we at our own discretion compensated ZhongAn for substantially all the loan principal and interest default but have not been subsequently collected.

5

Provision for contingent guarantee liabilities in the fourth quarter of 2018 was nil, compared with RMB109.1 million in the same period of 2017, primarily because the loans subject to guarantee liabilities have substantially matured and the related guarantee liabilities have been substantially settled before the end of the third quarter of 2018.

Provision for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets in the fourth quarter of 2018 increased by 103.6% to RMB111.6 million (US$16.2 million) from RMB54.8 million in the same period of 2017, primarily due to the increase in revenue this quarter compared with same period of 2017 and a change in estimated default rates.

Income from operations in the fourth quarter of 2018 increased by 20.9% to RMB287.8 million (US$41.9 million) from RMB238.1 million in the same period of 2017.

Income before income taxes and gain (loss) from equity in affiliates in the fourth quarter of 2018 was RMB235.5 million (US$34.3 million), compared with RMB220.7 million in the same period of 2017.

Income tax benefit in the fourth quarter of 2018 was RMB3.7 million (US$0.5 million), compared with an income tax expense of RMB61.4 million in the same period of 2017. The change was primarily because the corporate income tax rate applicable to three major subsidiaries of the Company was being adjusted down to 15% in 2018 as the Company qualified as a high tech enterprise.

Net income attributable to the Company in the fourth quarter of 2018 was RMB241.9 million (US$35.2 million), compared with RMB158.5 million in the same period of 2017.

Non-GAAP net income in the fourth quarter of 2018 was RMB280.4 million (US$40.8 million), compared with RMB193.3 million in the same period of 2017.

Basic and diluted earnings per ADS in the fourth quarter of 2018 were RMB1.60 (US$0.24) and RMB1.50 (US$0.22), respectively, compared with RMB1.14 and RMB1.06, respectively, in the same period of 2017.

Non-GAAP basic and diluted earnings per ADS in the fourth quarter of 2018 were RMB1.84 (US$0.26) and RMB1.74 (US$0.26), respectively, compared with RMB1.38 and RMB1.30, respectively, in the same period of 2017.

Net revenues in 2018 increased by 98.1% to RMB3,540.6 million (US$515.0 million) from RMB1,786.9 million in 2017, primarily due to a change in product mix resulting from a significant increase in the proportion of the revenue generated by Xiaoying Card Loan, which carries a higher service fee rate compared with the Company’s other products.

Loan facilitation service fees under the direct model in 2018 increased by 140.2% to RMB2,957.6 million (US$430.2 million) from RMB1,231.1 million in 2017, primarily due to a change in product mix and a shift in strategy to focus on loan facilitation services through the direct model.

Loan facilitation service fees under the intermediary model in 2018 decreased by 24.6% to RMB228.3 million (US$33.2 million) from RMB302.6 million in 2017, primarily due to a decrease in the total volume of products offered under the intermediary model as the Company shifts its strategy to focus on loan facilitation services through the direct model.

Post-origination service fees in 2018 increased by 160.8% to RMB131.2 million (US$19.1 million) from RMB50.3 million in 2017, primarily due to the cumulative effect of increased volume of loans facilitated in the past year.

Financing income in 2018 decreased by 41.8% to RMB76.1 million (US$11.1 million) from RMB130.7 million in 2017, primarily due to the termination of a portion of the consolidated trusts administered by unrelated third-party trust companies that were offered to investors through the Company’s consolidated trust business.

Other revenue in 2018 increased by 104.2% to RMB147.4 million (US$21.4 million) from RMB72.2 million in 2017, primarily due to an increase in penalty fees for late or early repayment.

Origination and servicing expenses in 2018 increased by 56.0% to RMB1,186.0 million (US$172.5 million) from RMB760.1 million in 2017, primarily due to an increase in commission fees and collection expenses resulting from the increase in loan transactions during 2018.

General and administrative expenses in 2018 increased by 124.0% to RMB220.0 million (US$32.0 million) from RMB98.2 million in 2017, primarily due to an increase in share-based compensation expenses, professional consulting fees, and higher rental fees associated with the Company’s new offices.

Sales and marketing expenses in 2018 increased by 168.6% to RMB205.7 million (US$29.9 million) from RMB76.6 million in 2017, primarily due to an increase in advertising campaigns aimed at strengthening the Company’s image.

Provision for contingent guarantee liabilities in 2018 increased by 18.5% to RMB216.4 million (US$31.5 million) from RMB182.6 in 2017, primarily due to the challenging operating environment, credit contraction and reduced liquidity for small and middle-size enterprises, and the adverse impact on Xiaoying Preferred Loan by the market condition across the industry during 2018.

7

Provision for accounts receivable and contract assets in 2018 increased by 136.7% to RMB397.0 million (US$57.7 million) from RMB167.7 million in 2017, primarily due to the significant increase in revenue in 2018 compared with last year.

Income tax expense was RMB209.9 million (US$30.5 million) in 2018, compared with RMB138.2 million in 2017. The increase was primarily due to an increase in taxable income and partially offset by a decrease in corporate income tax rate to 15% for three major subsidiaries of the Company, and a pre-tax deduction for research and development expenses.

Net income attributable to the Company was RMB883.1 million (US$128.4 million) in 2018, compared with RMB340.3 million in 2017.

Non-GAAP net income was RMB1,054.9 million (US$153.4 million) in 2018, compared with RMB413.5 million in 2017.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures Statement

In evaluating our business, we consider and use adjusted net income, a non-GAAP measure, as supplemental measure to review and assess our operating performance. We present the non-GAAP financial measure because it is used by our management to evaluate our operating performance and formulate business plans. We also believe that the use of the non-GAAP financial measures facilitates investors’ assessment of our operating performance.

This non-GAAP financial measure is not defined under U.S. GAAP and is not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. This Non-GAAP financial measure has limitations as analytical tools, and when assessing our operating performance, investors should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

9

We mitigate these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, which should be considered when evaluating our performance. We encourage you 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 “Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP results” set forth at the end of this press release.
