--- ---
^3^ High-quality borrowers refer to G1-G3 borrowers. The Company groups its<br>qualified borrowers into eight risk levels, with G1 representing the lowest risk and G8 representing the highest risk among qualified borrowers. A borrower’s risk level is determined based on two primary considerations. The First is credit risk<br>score, modeled using statistical techniques and based on the records of the Credit Reference Center of the People’s Bank of China and the borrower’s prior records such as repayment, delinquency and application histories. The other<br>consideration takes into account the customer’s assets, such as residential property, vehicle and insurance policies. Borrowers with higher credit risk scores and better assets will be assigned a lower risk level.
--- ---
^4^ Flow rate estimates the percentage of current loans that will become<br>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,<br>(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<br>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 flow rate estimation.
--- ---
^5^ DPD 30+ delinquency rate refers to the outstanding balance of loans for which any payment is 30 to 179 calendar<br>days past due divided by the outstanding balance of loans. Loans from legacy products and consumer finance subsidiary are excluded from calculation.
--- ---
^6^ DPD 90+ delinquency rate refers to the outstanding balance of loans for which any payment is 90 to 179 calendar<br>days past due divided by the outstanding balance of loans. Loans from legacy products and consumer finance subsidiary are excluded from calculation.

--- ---

Mr. Ji Guangheng, Chairman of Lufax, commented, “We maintained our steady and healthy growth momentum during the third quarter, augmented our regulatory compliance and corporate governance initiatives, rewarded our shareholders through additional share repurchases, and completely phased out our legacy P2P products. Because our direct and indirect client exposure to the property sector is very minor, and because we predominately serve small and micro business owners who are resilient and play a crucial role in China’s economic development, the recent macroeconomic and property market downturn has not impacted our business much. By leveraging the competitive advantages born out of our unique business model and by maintaining frequent and constructive dialogs with regulators at all levels through all available channels, we have been able to deftly navigate through the constantly changing regulatory environment, preemptively adjust our operation strategies, and proactively align our business directions with regulatory trends. Looking ahead, we will continue to uphold our commitment to maintaining full regulatory compliance, providing compassionate and inclusive financial services, establishing ourselves as a role model of corporate governance among overseas-listed Chinese companies, and generating increasing value for our shareholders and our society.”

Mr. Gregory Gibb, Co-Chief Executive Officer of Lufax, commented, “We delivered another strong quarter of revenue and profit growth in the third quarter despite regulatory changes and economic slowdown. During the quarter, we successfully sustained our revenue take rates and net profit margins. Also, we grew our O2O direct sales force primarily serving small business owners to around 64,000 in the third quarter from 59,000 at the end of the second quarter, and improved their overall productivity by 4% quarter on quarter. As a result of our focus on small business owners and our diverse client base, we have not detected any sign of credit deterioration in our secured or unsecured loan facilitation portfolios. While we have observed increasing regulatory clarity, and although we no longer anticipate any additional major changes in regulations, we remain vigilant in our compliance efforts. The leverage ratio of our guarantee companies nationwide was under 3X as of the end of the third quarter, even though they share credit risk on all new loans facilitated. Also, with a strong cash position and an abundant capital reserve, we are well positioned to preempt any potential rectification requirements whenever necessary. In addition, we improved our shareholder return on equity through a newly announced cash dividend as a manifestation of our confidence in strong cash flow and business outlook. We continue to plough investment into empowering our salesforce with technology, deepening our deployment of AI capabilities, and expanding our product line functionality. By sharing our technological knowhow with our partners, we aim to increase our market reach, enhance our productivity, and improve our cost efficiency. ”

^7^ Legacy products of the wealth management business refer to a variety of products and related services that the<br>Company has historically offered but no longer offers, primarily due to shifts in strategy and regulatory requirements. Legacy products are primarily comprised of certain types of structured alternative products originated from financial<br>institutions and peer-to-peer platforms.
^8^ The take rate for the wealth management business is calculated by dividing total wealth management transaction<br>and service fees for current products by average client assets in the Company’s current products.

Mr. James Zheng, Chief Financial Officer of Lufax, commented, “We achieved double-digit growth in both revenue and net profit, as our total income increased by 21.8% to RMB15.9 billion and our net profit increased by 90.8% to RMB4.1 billion year over year. Our solid financial performance in the face of the regulatory uncertainty and economic slowdown showcases our execution capabilities on several fronts. First, we continued to maintain stable unit economics despite loan balance APR declines to 23.1% in third quarter from 26.6% a year ago by leveraging our diverse funding sources and relentless sales and marketing efficiency gains. Second, we sustained growth in our overall loan volume by optimizing our business mix, as our new loan sales for the retail credit business increased by 16.2% to RMB171.7 billion during the third quarter. Third, we continued to refine our risk-sharing business model and stabilize our asset quality. Finally, we improved the take rate of our wealth management segment through product mix realignment, achieving an increase of 12.3 basis points over the previous quarter. As of September 30, 2021, our total equity had reached RMB93 billion, and we had approximately RMB47 billion in liquid assets^9^ maturing in 90 days or less. We are confident that we will maintain a solid performance and continue to drive growth in the remainder of 2021 and beyond.”

General and administrative expenses increased by 46.0% to RMB937 million (US$145 million) in<br>the third quarter of 2021 from RMB642 million in the same period of 2020.

Operation and servicing expenses increased by 6.3% to RMB1,660 million (US$258 million) in the<br>third quarter of 2021 from RMB1,562 million in the same period of 2020, primarily due to the increase of trust plan management expenses, which resulted from the increase in consolidated trust plans.

--- ---
Credit impairment losses increased by 74.8% to RMB1,664 million (US$258 million) in the third<br>quarter of 2021 from RMB952 million in the same period of 2020, due to the increase in the proportion of credit risk born by the Company as a result of its continued migration to a risk-sharing model while the credit quality indicators<br>continued to stabilize and in some cases improve substantially from one year previously.

--- ---
Finance costs decreased by 89.8% to RMB168 million (US$26 million) in the third quarter<br>of 2021 from RMB1,652 million in the same period of 2020, mainly due to a non-recurring expense of RMB1,326 million recognized in September 2020 in relation to the Company’s C-round convertible notes restructuring and a decrease in the balance of convertible bonds and the increase in interest income resulting from the increase in deposits.
