Madame.

The disruptions from the lockdowns in Shanghai and wider areas tested and proved our resilience, adaptability, and stamina, thanks to our client-centric business model, solid technology infrastructure and value-added service capabilities. As a result, the number of active clients in fiscal year 2022 increased by 15.1% year-over-year to 43,764, a record high, and the repeat investment rate from existing clients remained at 80.8%. Meanwhile, we continued to focus on the execution of our strategic expansion roadmap for the long term. This year, we entered into two strategic acquisitions in the health management sector to empower our wealth management business with superior and well-established health-management offerings to our high-net-worth clients in China. As we head into fiscal year 2023, we will continue to extend our competitive advantage in wealth management by deepening engagement with clients to enhance repeat investment, while striving to integrate wealth and health into one holistic proposition to further unlock client value and commercial value from our dual proposition serving clients across market cycles and life cycles.”

Mr. Lawrence Lok, Chief Financial Officer of Hywin, stated, “We ended fiscal year 2022 on a solid footing with total net revenues of 1,942.1 million and net income of 235.9 million. Our operating margin improved from 15.4% in fiscal year 2021 to 16.8% in fiscal year 2022, demonstrating our efficiency gains and strong cost discipline. Meanwhile, we continued to see momentum from our diversification transformation as business volumes in our venture capital funds and private equity funds products and hedge funds products grew by 111.8% and 98.0% year-on-year respectively, driven by our in-depth investment and research abilities, excellent product-sourcing capabilities, as well as a deep understanding of client demand. We entered into two strategic acquisitions of Grand Doctor and Life Infinity in the second half of fiscal 2022 and first half of fiscal 2023 respectively. We believe the health management business will expand Hywin’s sources of revenues, deepen our reach in the addressable markets, and further strengthen client relationships. Going forward, we expect greater synergies and long-term benefits once the acquisitions are fully integrated, and we will continue to drive organic growth while enhancing our value proposition.”

Recent Developments

In August 2022, the Company entered into a series of definitive share transfer agreements and capital increase agreement with Beijing iLife3 Technology Co. Ltd (“Life Infinity”), one of the leading integrated health management service providers in China, and its existing shareholders with an aggregate purchase consideration of approximately RMB141 million in cash to acquire 63.39% equity interest in Life Infinity. As of the date of this press release, the acquisition has been completed. Together with the investment we made in Grand Doctor Medical Co., Ltd.

These efforts represent another milestone in Hywin’s strategic plans to unlock growing value from our enormous client franchise. This also makes Hywin the first independent wealth manager in China to integrate wealth and health into one holistic proposition, with cross-selling opportunities and cost synergies that naturally occur along with the wealth-health continuum.
