Restatement of unaudited financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2019

In connection with the preparation of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial information for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, the Company identified an error that the revenue from financial services income was overstated by RMB129 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, as certain discounts and interests waived were not appropriately recorded due to unintentional use of incorrect system reports in connection with preparation of the financial statement adjustments for such discounts and waived interest. The Company has determined that the unaudited financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 as previously reported in the press release of the first quarter of 2019 on May 17, 2019 (“Q1 2019 Press Release”) need to be restated. Immediately upon identifying the error, the Company undertook a review of relevant internal control processes and started to implement additional measures to address potential control deficiencies.

In addition, the Company recorded an out-of-period adjustment of RMB66.1 million to financial services income for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, to correct the cumulative effect of errors in recording discounts and interests waived in the periods prior to December 31, 2018. The out-of-period adjustment primarily resulted in a decrease of RMB63.6 million of interest and financial services income and other revenues, and financing receivables, respectively. The Company has concluded that this out-of-period adjustment was not material to previously reported financial statements nor to current or estimated full year fiscal 2019 results, and recorded the out-of-period adjustment in the restated unaudited financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2019.

As a result, the unaudited financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 have been restated from the amounts previously reported in the Q1 2019 Press Release.

The following main items in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations and of comprehensive income, and unaudited reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP results for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 were restated. The amounts under the heading “As Reported” reflect the originally reported results. The amounts under the heading “As Restated” reflect the Company’s restated results after this restatement.

Unless otherwise indicated, the financial figures for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 in the following paragraphs give effect to the restatement described above.

“In spite of the changes in the industry, we continue to grow at a rapid pace, thanks to our strong funding pipeline, highly compliant operations, and advanced financial technology.” said Mr. Jay Wenjie Xiao, Lexin’s chairman and chief executive officer. “I am pleased to announce that we were once again able to deliver another quarter of strong growth for our shareholders.” 

“We continue to lead the industry in the number of funding partners,” continued Mr. Xiao. “Our total number of institutional funding partners continues to grow, and we have more than sufficient funding from our institutional funding partners to meet our loan facilitation targets for the year.”

“Our efforts to continuously stay ahead of the regulatory curve and maintain our strong growth in spite of changing regulatory conditions are now paying off.” said Mr. Craig Yan Zeng, Lexin’s chief financial officer. “In the second quarter, Lexin’s gross profit reached RMB1.1 billion and our non-GAAP EBIT reached RMB776 million, representing an increase of 26.6% and 28.8% from the same period in 2018. Thanks to our strong institutional funding, we're now able to raise our loan origination guidance for the year.” 

“Credit performance and credit quality continues to be strong,” said Mr. Ryan Huanian Liu, Lexin’s chief risk officer. “Our vintage charge-off rate7 is just over 2.0%, and our 90 day+ delinquency rate was 1.49% as of June 30, 2019. We fully expect the strong performance to continue in the future.”

7 Vintage charge-off rate refers to, with respect to on- and off-balance sheet loans originated during a specified time period, which we refer to as a vintage, the total outstanding principal balance of the loans that are charged off during a specified period, divided by the total initial principal of the loans originated in such vintage.

Second Quarter 2019 Financial Results:

Operating revenue increased from RMB2.0 billion in the second quarter of 2018 to RMB2.5 billion in the second quarter of 2019. This increase in operating revenues was due to the increase in online direct sales revenue and financial services income for the quarter, driven by continuing increases in the number of active users on our platform.

Online direct sales increased by 58.8% from RMB583 million in the second quarter of 2018 to RMB925 million in the second quarter of 2019. This increase was primarily due to the significant increase in the number of orders as a result of several sales promotional events during the quarter.

Financial services income increased by 8.1% from RMB1.4 billion in the second quarter of 2018 to RMB1.5 billion in the second quarter of 2019. This increase was primarily contributed by the increase in the loan facilitation and servicing fees, partially offset by the decrease in interest and financial services income and other revenues.

Loan facilitation and servicing fees increased by 148% from RMB487 million in the second quarter of 2018 to RMB1.2 billion in the second quarter of 2019. This increase was primarily due to significant increase in off-balance sheet loans originated as a result of the continuing growth of our business as well as business model adjustments made to Juzi Licai in the second quarter of 2018. Under the adjusted business model, we act as an intermediary between the borrowers and the individual investors. Based on the assessment of the accounting impact in respect of the adjusted business model, all new loans funded by individual investors on Juzi Licai under this new business model have been accounted for as off-balance sheet loans accordingly, commencing from late April 2018. Prior to that, loans funded by individual investors on Juzi Licai were accounted for as on-balance sheet loans. As a result, revenues generated from loan facilitation and servicing fees increased significantly.

Interest and financial services income and other revenues decreased by 65.9% from RMB922 million in the second quarter of 2018 to RMB314 million in the second quarter of 2019 due to a decrease in on-balance sheet loans originated on our platform as a result of the aforementioned business model adjustments in the second quarter of 2018.

Cost of sales increased by 54.8% from RMB598 million in the second quarter of 2018 to RMB925 million in the second quarter of 2019, which is consistent with the increase of online direct sales revenue.

Funding cost decreased by 54.2% from RMB263 million in the second quarter of 2018 to RMB121 million in the second quarter of 2019, which is consistent with the decrease of the interest and financial services income and other revenues.

Processing and servicing cost increased by 94.3% from RMB71.2 million in the second quarter of 2018 to RMB138 million in the second quarter of 2019. This increase was primarily due to an increase in fees to third-party payment platforms, an increase in salaries and personnel related costs and an increase in credit assessment cost.

Provision for credit losses of financing receivables decreased by 21.1% from RMB232 million in the second quarter of 2018 to RMB183 million in the second quarter of 2019, which is consistent with the decrease in the on-balance sheet loans originated on our platform. The Company is continuing to improve its credit assessment and risk management capabilities to enhance its collection efforts while maintaining credit risks at a reasonable level.

Gross profit increased by 26.6% from RMB868 million in the second quarter of 2018 to RMB1.1 billion in the second quarter of 2019. The significant increase in the gross profit is primarily due to the significant increase of loan facilitation and servicing fees generated from the off-balance sheet loans.

Sales and marketing expenses increased by 119% from RMB144 million in the second quarter of 2018 to RMB316 million in the second quarter of 2019. This increase was primarily due to an increase in online promotional fees and advertising costs and an increase in salaries and personnel related costs.

Research and development expenses increased by 27.0% from RMB78.5 million in the second quarter of 2018 to RMB99.7 million in the second quarter of 2019. This increase was primarily due to an increase in salaries and personnel related costs.

General and administrative expenses increased by 35.1% from RMB69.6 million in the second quarter of 2018 to RMB94.1 million in the second quarter of 2019. This increase was primarily due to an increase in share-based compensation expenses allocated to general and administrative expenses, and an increase in salaries and personnel related costs.

Gain on guarantee liabilities for the second quarter of 2019 was RMB22.7 million, which resulted from releasing of liabilities through our performance of the guarantee for loans funded by individual investors on Juzi Licai that are covered by risk safeguard scheme.

Change in fair value of financial guarantee derivatives increased by 438% from RMB21.2 million in the second quarter of 2018 to RMB114 million in the second quarter of 2019. The increase was primarily due to increasing realization of gains through our performance of the guarantee, which is consistent with the continuing increases of underlying off-balance sheet loans originated on our platform since early 2018.

Income tax expense for the second quarter of 2019 was RMB106 million, compared to income tax benefit of RMB105 million in the second quarter of 2018. The Company’s PRC subsidiaries completed 2017 annual tax filings with relevant tax authorities in May 2018. The tax filing result provided additional insights as to the recoverability of the deferred tax assets arising from provision for credit losses. Accordingly, a valuation allowance of RMB193 million previously recognized as of December 31, 2017 was reversed in the same period of 2018.

Net income for the second quarter of 2019 was RMB628 million, representing a decrease of 5.4% from RMB664 million in the second quarter of 2018.

Adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2019 was RMB671 million, representing a decrease of 4.3% from RMB701 million in the second quarter of 2018.

Outlook

Based on Lexin’s preliminary assessment of the current market conditions, the Company expects total loan originations for the fiscal year 2019 to exceed RMB115 billion. This is Lexin’s current and preliminary view, which is subject to changes and uncertainties.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures Statement

In evaluating our business, we consider and use adjusted net income, non-GAAP EBIT, adjusted net income per ordinary share and per ADS, four non-GAAP measures, as supplemental measures to review and assess our operating performance. The presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We define adjusted net income as net income excluding share-based compensation expenses, investment-related impairment, and investment loss and we define non-GAAP EBIT as net income excluding income tax (benefit)/expense, share-based compensation expenses, interest expense/(income), net, investment-related impairment, and investment loss.

We present these non-GAAP financial measures because it is used by our management to evaluate our operating performance and formulate business plans. Adjusted net income enables our management to assess our operating results without considering the impact of share-based compensation expenses, investment-related impairment and investment loss. Non-GAAP EBIT, on the other hand, enables our management to assess our operating results without considering the impact of income tax (benefit)/expense, share-based compensation expenses, interest expense/(income), net, investment-related impairment, and investment loss. We also believe that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate investors’ assessment of our operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool. One of the key limitations of using adjusted net income and non-GAAP EBIT is that they do not reflect all items of income and expense that affect our operations. Share-based compensation expenses, income tax (benefit)/expense, interest expense/(income), net, investment-related impairment, and investment loss have been and may continue to be incurred in our business and are not reflected in the presentation of adjusted net income and non-GAAP EBIT. Further, these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the non-GAAP financial information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited.

We compensate for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, which should be considered when evaluating our performance. We encourage you to review our financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
