Mr. Haisheng Wu, Chief Executive Officer and Director of 360 Finance, commented, “The first quarter of 2020 was an unusual quarter, as the entire fintech industry essentially went through a COVID-19-induced extreme stress test in terms of business performance and asset quality. Our results for the quarter demonstrate that we successfully passed this test with flying colors, while maintaining high standards in compliance and a prudent risk management strategy. We attribute this success to our high-quality borrower base and the cautious operation approach. Furthermore, we attained remarkable progress in every aspect of our business operation despite challenging market conditions. Loan origination volume reached RMB51.8 billion during the quarter, a 25.6% year-over-year increase. Despite the unfavorable market conditions in the first quarter, we endeavored to sustain a considerable loan origination volume with decent risk profile compared to last quarter in 2019. During the quarter, the total revenue reached RMB3.18 billion. Free cash flow increased substantially as well which will provide additional cushion for risk management and further uphold our strong risk resilience.”
“In face of COVID-19 outbreak, we persist in refining our management, continuously improving operational efficiency and bolstering sustainable development. This is the third sequential quarter during which we effectively brought down both customer acquisition cost and funding cost. What’s worth noting here is that we have successfully issued three ABSs to date this year. The cost of the most recent one reached a coupon rate as low as 4.2% for the senior A tranche. During this quarter, the outstanding balance of loans under capital-light model within Platform Services, for which we bear limited principle risk, continued to increase and accounted for 21.2% out of total outstanding loan balance contributing to a further descending leverage ratio and a sufficient 4.0x of provision coverage ratio. In terms of compliance, recently China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission for the first time issued a consultative “Guidelines on Commercial Banks’ Online Lending Business” draft (the “Draft”) which is viewed as the basic law for the online lending industry in China. The Draft substantially reduces regulatory overhang and is beneficial for the overall fintech industry, and in particular, the leading players like us.
In addition, we have committed great efforts in launching more pilot projects aiming to expand customer acquisition channels and boost existing users’ stickiness. We not only have expanded more user traffic channels such as external platforms with consumption scenarios, but also considerably enhanced users’ stickiness through a virtual credit product called V-pocket. As indicated by recent operation data, our business is stably recovering with growth prospects. We management team anticipate a very solid quarter going forward and remain in full confidence to achieve full year operation target.”
Mr. Jiang Wu, Chief Financial Officer and Director of 360 Finance, stated, “In compliance with FASB requirements, we adopted the new accounting standard ASC 326: Financial instruments – Credit Losses starting this quarter. This change in accounting standards essentially leads that our results this quarter are not directly comparable with previous periods on a like-for-like basis. Let me explain the main differences between the old and new accounting standards and how the adjustments have impacted our financial statements. First, revenue from releasing of guarantee liabilities, which represents guarantee revenue recognized from our existing loan portfolios, was RMB1.01 billion under new accounting standards, among which RMB838 million is attributable to the adoption of new accounting standards. Second, provision for contingent liability includes provisions of RMB1.42 billion for estimated credit losses associated with new loan origination during the quarter which is recognized under the new accounting standards. Lastly, as of March 31, 2020, retained earnings on our balance sheet decreased by approximately RMB1.25 billion during this quarter. This reduction is mainly attributed to loss of RMB1.43 billion for loan portfolios existing as of December 31, 2019 recognized according to new accounting standards, which is caused by the net impact of recognizing provision upfront and deferring revenue from guarantee services to future period.
In addition, in this quarter, we accrued RMB 280 million of guarantee liabilities for loans originated in previous periods as a result of the impact of the pandemic.”
“Total net revenue in the first quarter was RMB3.18 billion, among which RMB838 million was accounted for incremental revenue from releasing of guarantee liabilities under new accounting standards. Owing to revenue increase and provision for contingent liabilities corresponding to loan origination in the first quarter, under new accounting standards, non-GAAP operating income dropped by RMB599 million to RMB256 million. Hence we essentially achieved one of the most exceptional quarterly financial results since our IPO.”
In the second quarter, we are witnessing a continuing improvement of asset quality and modest growth of loan origination volume, driven by the recovery of domestic economy and our efforts on the enhancing operation efficiency. Hence, we do expect further improvement on our financials in the coming quarter. However, we are still evaluating the impact of global pandemic situation on China’s economy and our business. Given that, we will remain cautious on the full year outlook.
Mr. Yan Zheng, Vice President of 360 Finance, added, “In response to the pandemic, we implemented a more prudent risk management strategy. When granting credit lines to borrowers, we quickly adjusted to adopt a tighter credit approval policy for new borrowers living in areas most affected by the pandemic and to those working in industries that were significantly impacted. After borrowers made a credit drawdown, we focused on borrower management and offered more flexible and diversified products. We also continued to enhance overall efficiency in loan collection processes through constantly refining our AI bots.”
“As the pandemic subsides in China, we have seen D1 delinquency and collection rate improved to normal level. Up to present, D1 delinquency rate*9 fell to the level which is roughly the same as 6.77% in the fourth quarter of 2019, compared to roughly 7.28% in the first quarter of 2020. M1 collection rate*10 is gaining momentum and improved to above 86.0% to date. At the same time, asset quality proved resilient having effectively withstood the pandemic challenges. The consumer finance ecosystem empowered by our technology platform started to take shape and has played a pivotal role in improving customer retention rate, optimizing risk models and strengthening the collection of customer behavior data with adequate customer authorization.”
“In next quarter we will continue to focus on our differentiated risk strategies for various customer groups aiming to continuously expedite our risk management improvement through technology and support our growth going forward.”
9 "D1 delinquency rate" is defined as (i) the total amount of principal that became overdue as a specified date, divided by (ii) the total amount of principal that was due for repayment as of such date.
10 "M1 collection rate" is defined as (i) the amount of principal that was repaid in one month among the total amount of principal that became overdue as a specified date, divided by (ii) the total amount of principal that became overdue as a specified date.

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments which has subsequently been amended by ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05, ASU 2019-10, ASU 2019-11 and ASU 2020-03. This ASU is intended to improve financial reporting by requiring timelier recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments held by financial institutions and other organizations. This ASU requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. For public business entities, the guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including final periods within those fiscal years.
We have adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2020, using the modified retrospective transition method. The new guidance requires the recognition of credit losses to be measured using an expected credit loss model (referred to as the current expected credit loss (CECL) model). ASC 326 establishes a new accounting principle which requires gross accounting for guarantee liability. That is, to record both a guarantee obligation and an allowance for credit losses, calculated using the CECL impairment model, in addition to the guarantee obligation under ASC 460. As a result, at inception of the guarantee, we have recognized both a stand-ready guarantee liability under ASC 460 with an associated financial assets receivable, and a contingent guarantee liability with an allowance for credit losses under CECL model. Subsequent to the initial recognition, the ASC 460 stand-ready guarantee is recognized into guarantee revenue over the term of the guarantee, while the contingent guarantee is reduced by the payouts made by the company to compensate the investors upon borrowers' default. Upon adoption, we recognized the cumulative effect of approximately RMB1.43 billion after tax as a decrease to the opening balance of retained earnings and RMB1.9 billion as an increase to the opening balance of guarantee liabilities as of January 1, 2020.
Business Outlook
360 Finance currently expects total loan origination volume for fiscal year 2020 to be in the range of RMB 200 billion to RMB 220 billion. This forecast reflects the Company’s current and preliminary views, which are subject to change.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures Statement
To supplement our financial results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we use non-GAAP financial measure, which is adjusted from results based on U.S. GAAP to exclude share-based compensation expenses. Reconciliations of our non-GAAP financial measures to our U.S. GAAP financial measures are set forth in tables at the end of this earnings release, which provide more details on the non-GAAP financial measures.
We use non-GAAP income from operation, non-GAAP operation margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income margin in evaluating our operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. Non-GAAP income from operation represents income from operation excluding share-based compensation expenses, and non-GAAP net income represents net income excluding share-based compensation expenses. Such adjustments have no impact on income tax. We believe that non-GAAP income from operation and non-GAAP net income help identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of certain expenses that we include in results based on U.S. GAAP. We believe that non-GAAP income from operation and non-GAAP net income provide useful information about our operating results, enhance the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by our management in its financial and operational decision-making. Our non-GAAP financial information should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to U.S. GAAP results. In addition, our calculation of non-GAAP financial information may be different from the calculation used by other companies, and therefore comparability may be limited.

| * We have adopted the new standard (ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses) effective January 1, 2020 using the modified retrospective transition method, which establishes a new accounting principle requiring gross accounting for guarantee liability. We recognized both a stand-ready guarantee liability under ASC 460 with an associated financial assets receivable, and a contingent guarantee liability with an allowance for credit losses under CECL model. Upon adoption, we recognized the cumulative effect of approximately RMB1.43 billion as a decrease to the opening balances of retained earnings, as of January 1, 2020, after adjusting to deferred taxes. | |||
