Mr. YongSuk Cho, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Lufax, commented, “As the macroeconomic landscape moves towards recovery, our core SBO customers still faced some difficulties during the second quarter, affecting our operational landscape and impeding the trajectory of our U-shaped recovery. Nevertheless, we grew our bottom line and our strategic initiatives yielded encouraging initial results. Our focus on asset quality over quantity
| [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] | 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. |

proved successful, as our C-M3 ratio stabilized during the second quarter. Furthermore, early indications suggest that the asset quality of recent loans, enabled under more stringent credit criteria, surpasses that of loans originated over the previous three years. Importantly, our consumer finance business continued on its healthy growth trajectory, with consumer finance loans as a percentage of total new loan sales increasing, total outstanding balance of consumer finance loans growing, and non-performing loan ratio declining sequentially. At the same time, we continued to refine our long-term strategy to minimize risk and diversify our business. Our multi-faceted strategic approach involves transitioning to the 100% guaranteed model, expanding our retail credit business, increased operational focus on high-performing regions, further optimization of our direct sales channels, and more stringent risk controls. Looking ahead, as we navigate through this transitory period, we believe that both near-term loan growth and profitability will remain suppressed. Nevertheless, we are confident that the stable regulatory environment, the favorable government policies, and the long-term foundations we are laying will ultimately drive our recovery and deliver sustainable value for shareholders.”
Mr. Gregory Gibb, Co-Chief Executive Officer of Lufax, commented, “The second quarter saw a decrease in new loans enabled and our overall loan balance, impacting our top-line results during this period. We responded proactively by sharpening our steadfast focus on agile operations and cost control, which helped us to successfully generate a sequential increase in net profit. At the same time, we continued to execute on our upgraded strategy of concentrating on higher quality customers in more economically resilient regions. There are encouraging signs that our strategy is bearing fruit, with our average ticket size growing and our C-M3 ratio remaining stable compared with the first quarter. In contrast with the challenges faced by our retail credit model, our consumer finance business continued to develop healthily, with the total outstanding balance of consumer finance loans reaching RMB32.8 billion by the end of the second quarter, and the non-performing loan ratio falling by two percentage points sequentially to 2.2%. Meanwhile, we addressed compressed take rates, attributable to elevated premiums charged by our credit insurance partners, by advancing closer towards our 100% credit guaranteed model. As of the end of the second quarter, our risk-taking by balance had risen to 27.5% from 24.5% in the first quarter, and we expect this figure to exceed 40% by the end of the year. Looking ahead, we will continue to execute on our de-risk and diversify strategy while optimizing our operating costs, as we accelerate our transition to the 100% guarantee model and lay the groundwork for our U-shaped recovery.”
Mr. David Choy, Chief Financial Officer of Lufax, commented, “We continued to advance our efforts aimed at refining our cost structure and strengthening our business model in the second quarter. As a result, we reduced our total operating expenses by 27.2% year over year, and recorded a net profit of RMB1.0 billion during the quarter. Our balance sheet remains strong, with our cash at bank balance increasing to RMB46.9 billion since the end of our last fiscal year. Notably, our guarantee subsidiary’s leverage ratio stood at only 1.6x as of the end of the second quarter, compared to the regulatory maximum allowance of 10x. Furthermore, liquid assets[6] maturing in 90 days or less amounted to RMB38.2 billion as of the end of June 2023. Going forward, we are confident in the strength of our business model as we strive to deliver sustainable value and long-term growth for our shareholders.”
| [6] | Liquid assets consist of cash at bank, financial assets at amortized cost, and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss with a maturity of 90 days or less as of June 30, 2023. |

The decrease was mainly due to 1) the decreased borrowers acquisition costs as a result of the decrease in new loan sales, 2) decreased investor acquisition and retention expenses and referral expenses from platform service attributable to the decreased transaction volume, and 3) decreased general sales and marketing expenses attributable to the decrease in salary as a result of optimization of sales team. |
| • | General and administrative expenses decreased by 35.3% to RMB493 million (US$68 million) in the second quarter of 2023 from RMB762 million in the same period of 2022, mainly due to the Company’s expense control measures and the decrease of tax and surcharge. |

| • | Operation and servicing expenses decreased by 0.3% to RMB1,576 million (US$217 million) in the second quarter of 2023 from RMB1,581 million in the same period of 2022, primarily due to the Company’s expense control measures and decrease of loan balance. |
| • | Technology and analytics expenses decreased by 28.8% to RMB344 million (US$47 million) in the second quarter of 2023 from RMB483 million in the same period of 2022 due to 1) the optimization of technology and research team, and 2) the Company’s improved efficiency. |
| • | Credit impairment losses decreased by 14.7% to RMB2,998 million (US$413 million) in the second quarter of 2023 from RMB3,513 million in the same period of 2022, mainly due to the decrease in provision of loans and receivables as a result of the decreased loan balance. |
| • | Finance costs decreased by 38.7% to RMB136 million (US$19 million) in the second quarter of 2023 from RMB221 million in the same period of 2022, mainly due to the increase of interest income from bank deposits and the decrease of interest as a result of our early repayment of Ping An Convertible Promissory Notes, partially offset by the increase of interest expenses driven by increased interest rates. |

Net profit was RMB1,004 million (US$138 million) in the second quarter of 2023, compared to RMB2,936 million in the same period of 2022, as a result of the aforementioned factors.
