Mr. YongSuk Cho, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Lufax, commented, "During the first quarter, we maintained our emphasis on quality over quantity as we continued to prioritize operational prudence and long-term stability. Following the completion of five major de-risking and diversification actions, including four mix changes and one business model adjustment, we witnessed some improvements in our early risk indicators. However, we maintained a patient approach to ensure that this success will be sustainable. We have strategically shifted our product mix from SBO loans to a more diverse approach which puts a greater emphasis on consumer finance products. Meanwhile, all new loans during the quarter were either granted by our consumer finance subsidiary or enabled by our guarantee company under our 100% guarantee model. This switch will have a positive impact on our take rate as it eases the burden of elevated CGI premiums, though the upfront provisioning of these loans means our bottom-line will take longer to recover. In terms of asset quality, the C-M3 flow rate for our Puhui business improved from the fourth quarter of 2023 to the first quarter of 2024. Having already witnessed preliminary enhancements to some key operating metrics, we believe that our strategic initiatives have created a solid foundation for ongoing success. We will remain vigilant, and plan to embrace a cautious approach to our operations for the foreseeable future."
Mr. Gregory Gibb, Co-Chief Executive Officer of Lufax, commented, "We began to feel the impact of our refined strategic initiatives during the first quarter of 2024. We witnessed the growth of our consumer finance business, with consumer finance loans accounting for 42% of new loan sales in the quarter, up from 24% in the same period last year. Consumer finance loans now comprise 14% of our total balance, an increase from both the year and quarter prior. We have also been growing the portion of loans under our 100% guarantee model, with 26% of Puhui's loan balance now enabled under this model. As of the end of the first quarter, our take rate stood at 9.0% as we built up this balance, and we expect it to rise further in the future through ongoing strategic execution. The improvement in the macro environment, removal of temporary negative impacts from our geographic and direct sales restructuring in the third quarter, and the vintage run off as we build up a new book helped improve our asset quality."
Mr. David Choy, Chief Financial Officer of Lufax, commented, "We remain committed to ongoing cost optimizations, as evidenced by the 37% year-over-year decrease in total expenses, excluding credit and asset impairment losses, finance costs, and other losses, and the 27% year-over-year decrease in our total expenses. Furthermore, our leverage level remains low, and both of our main operating entities are well-capitalized. Our guarantee subsidiary's leverage ratio increased to 2.4x, driven by the increase of our guarantee balance associated with our increased risk exposure and the decrease of net assets due to the distribution of dividends, compared to a maximum regulatory limit of 10x. Our consumer finance company's capital adequacy ratio stood at approximately 15.1%, exceeding the required 10.5% regulatory requirement. As of March 31, 2024, our cash at bank balance amounted to RMB39.4 billion."
[1] The take rate of retail credit enablement business is calculated by dividing the aggregated amount of loan enablement service fees, post-origination service fees, net interest income, guarantee income and the penalty fees and account management fees by the average outstanding balance of loans enabled for each period. [2] C-M3 flow rate estimates the percentage of current loans that will become non-performing at the end of three months, and is defined as the product of (i) the loan balance that is overdue from 1 to 29 days as a percentage of the total current loan balance of the previous month, (ii) the loan balance that is overdue from 30 to 59 days as a percentage of the loan balance that was overdue from 1 to 29 days in the previous month, and (iii) the loan balance that is overdue from 60 to 89 days as a percentage of the loan balance that was overdue from 30 days to 59 days in the previous month. Loans from legacy products and consumer finance subsidiary are excluded from the flow rate calculation. [3] DPD 30+ delinquency rate refers to the outstanding balance of loans for which any payment is 30 to 179 calendar days past due divided by the outstanding balance of loans. Loans from legacy products and consumer finance subsidiary are excluded from the calculation. [4] DPD 90+ delinquency rate refers to the outstanding balance of loans for which any payment is 90 to 179 calendar days past due divided by the outstanding balance of loans. Loans from legacy products and consumer finance subsidiary are excluded from the calculation. [5] Non-performing loan ratio for consumer finance loans is calculated by using the outstanding balance of consumer finance loans for which any payment is 91 or more calendar days past due and not written off, and certain restructured loans, divided by the outstanding balance of consumer finance loans. |

- Technology platform-based income was RMB2,553 million (US$354 million) in the first quarter of 2024, compared to RMB5,010 million in the same period of 2023, representing a decrease of 49.0%, due to 1) the decrease of retail credit service fees due to the decrease in new loan sales and loan balance and 2) the decrease of referral and other technology platform-based income due to the decrease in transaction volume.
- Net interest income was RMB2,845 million (US$394 million) in the first quarter of 2024, compared to RMB3,349 million in the same period of 2023, representing a decrease of 15.0%, mainly due to the decrease in loan balance, partially offset by the increase of net interest income from the Company's consumer finance business.
- Guarantee income was RMB925 million (US$128 million) in the first quarter of 2024, compared to RMB1,417 million in the same period of 2023, representing a decrease of 34.7%, primarily due to the decrease in loan balance and a lower average fee rate.
- Other income was RMB319 million (US$44 million) in the first quarter of 2024, compared to other income of RMB227 million in the same period of 2023. The increase was mainly due to the increased account management fees driven by improved collection performance.

Total expenses decreased by 27% to RMB6,517 million (US$903 million) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB8,964 million in the same period of 2023.

- Sales and marketing expenses decreased by 49.9% to RMB1,518 million (US$210 million) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB3,030 million in the same period of 2023.

- General and administrative expenses decreased by 36.2% to RMB483 million (US$67 million) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB756 million in the same period of 2023, mainly due to the Company's expense control measures and the decrease in taxes and surcharges.
- Operation and servicing expenses decreased by 14.8% to RMB1,327 million (US$184 million) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB1,558 million in the same period of 2023, due to the Company's expense control measures and decrease of loan balance, partially offset by increased commission associated with improved collection performance.
- Technology and analytics expenses decreased by 26.1% to RMB252 million (US$35 million) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB341 million in the same period of 2023, primarily due to the Company's improved efficiency and expense control measures.
- Credit impairment losses decreased by 8.6% to RMB2,861 million (US$396 million) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB3,132 million in the same period of 2023, mainly due to the decrease in provision of loans and receivables as a result of the improvement of credit performance.
- Finance costs decreased by 69.2% to RMB58 million (US$8 million) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB189 million in the same period of 2023, mainly due to the decrease of interest expenses as a result of repayment of C-Round Convertible Promissory Notes and other debts, partially offset by the decrease of interest income from bank deposits.
- Other losses were RMB17 million (US$2 million) in the first quarter of 2024, compared to other gains of RMB42 million in the same period of 2023, mainly due to the increase of foreign exchange losses.
NET LOSS
Net loss was RMB830 million (US$115 million) in the first quarter of 2024, compared to a net profit of RMB732 million in the same period of 2023, as a result of the aforementioned factors and increased withholding tax of RMB1,050 million associated with one-off dividends that were paid by the Company's PRC subsidiaries in order to support the distribution of the special dividend the Company announced on March 21, 2024.
