First Six Months 2019 Financial Results

Interest Income on Loans

Interest income on loans for the first six months of 2019 increased by 49.2% to RMB75.5 million (US$11.0 million) from RMB50.6 million in the same period of the prior year. The increase was primarily attributable to the accrued interest of Stage 3 credit-impaired loans. Accrued interest is the present value of the estimated future cash flows of credit-impaired loans expected to be recovered, discounted at the loan's original effective interest rate.

Interest expense

Interest expenses on loans decreased to RMB9.8 million (US$1.4 million) for the first six months of 2019 from RMB13.6 million in the same period of the prior year. The reduction was mainly due to the decrease in average outstanding borrowings from RMB240.2 million in the first six months of 2018 to RMB203.8 million (US$29.7 million) in the first six months of 2019, which resulted in a RMB1.9 million (US$0.3 million) decrease in the Company's interest expenses on loans. Also, the effective cost of borrowings decreased from 11.3% in the first six months of 2018 to 9.6% in the first six months of 2019, which resulted in a RMB1.9 million (US$0.3 million) decrease in the Company's interest expenses on loans.

Net interest income

Net interest income for the first six months of 2019 was RMB65.5 million (US$9.5 million), representing a 78.0% increase from RMB36.8 million in the same period of the prior year.

Credit impairment losses

Credit impairment losses for the first six months of 2019 decreased from RMB11.6 million to RMB11.3 million (US$1.6 million). The credit impairment losses were provided at a similar level last year.

Operation expenses

Sales and marketing expenses for the first six months of 2019 increased to RMB0.6 million (US$0.1 million) from RMB0.5 million in the same period of the prior year. The increase was primarily attributable to the cost incurred in developing the new supply chain finance cloud platform.

General and administrative expenses increased from RMB6.7 million for the first six months of 2018 to RMB7.5 million (US$1.1 million) for the first six months of 2019. The increase was primarily attributable to the increase in certain administrative and miscellaneous expenses.

Net Profit and Earnings per ADS

Net profit was RMB34.5 million (US$5.0 million) for the first six months of 2019, as compared to RMB13.5 million in the same period of the prior year.

Earnings per ADS for the first six months of 2019 was US$0.19, compared to US$0.08 in the same period of the prior year.

Balance Sheet

As of June 30, 2019, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of RMB0.1 million (US$0.02 million) compared to RMB3.2 million as of December 31, 2018.

Loans receivable, net of credit impairment losses of RMB405.6 million (US$59.1 million), was RMB620.1 million (US$90.3 million) as of June 30, 2019, representing an increase of 7.0% from RMB579.7 million as of December 31, 2018, primarily due to the accrued interest of Stage 3 credit-impaired loans. Accrued interest is the present value of the estimated future cash flows of credit-impaired loans expected to be recovered, discounted at the loan's original effective interest rate.

Cash Flow

Net cash generated by operating activities for the first six months of 2019 was RMB2.5 million (US$0.4 million) compared to RMB12.7 million net cash used in operating activities in the same period of prior year.
