SHENZHEN, China, May 24, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LexinFintech Holdings Ltd. (“Lexin” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: LX), a leading technology-empowered personal financial service enabler in China, today announced its unaudited financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2023.
"Total loan origination for the first quarter of 2023 beat our initial expectations of over RMB60.9 billion, representing a year-over-year growth of 41.2%. Moreover, our total outstanding loan balance was over RMB107 billion, an increase of 27.7% year-over-year," said Jay Wenjie Xiao, chairman and chief executive officer of Lexin. "We delivered a solid result in the first quarter of 2023 and are well on track for a robust V-shaped recovery, which attributes to the recovery of consumption after the Chinese New Year and our continued efforts on risk management upgrade and operational improvement initiatives."
"In the past quarter, we made it the corporate priority number one to sharpen our focus on upgrading our overall risk management capability. Tangible improvement in asset quality is a clear reflection of these changes and we are committed to continue with this essential endeavor. Additionally, we further stepped up our investments in technological innovation and optimizing operational efficiency. Our efforts result in the enhancement of overall core competencies. Looking ahead, we remain vigilant about the continued recovery in consumption and economic activities in China. Risk management has long been the front and center of our business and we will continue to maintain a prudent approach in terms of business growth for this year," Mr. Xiao continued.
"We entered the 2023 financial year with a solid first-quarter result, which serves as a strong testament to the continued turnaround of our business," said Mr. James Zheng, chief financial officer of Lexin. "Total operating revenue for the first quarter was RMB3.0 billion, an increase of 74.2% year-over-year, and a decrease of 2.2% quarter-on-quarter, and our net profit also continued to increase for the fourth consecutive quarter, reaching approximately RMB327 million, an increase of 302% year-over-year and 8.7% quarter-on-quarter. Net profit margin increased to 11.0% from 4.8% in the first quarter of 2022 and 9.9% in the fourth quarter of 2022. Reduction in funding cost, improvements in operational efficiency, major upgrades in risk management system and switching more towards better quality customers, all contributed to a strong performance this quarter.
Quarter to date, we saw mild loan volume growth of our business as well as some enhancement in risk management, customer acquisition, funding cost and operational optimization. Looking ahead, we remain dedicated to generating sustainable, high-quality business growth and creating long-term value for our customers, shareholders and other stakeholders across our Lexin consumption ecosystem," said Mr. Zheng.

First Quarter 2023 Financial Results:
Operating revenue increased by 74.2% from RMB1,712 million in the first quarter of 2022 to RMB2,983 million in the first quarter of 2023.
Credit facilitation service income increased by 136% from RMB896 million in the first quarter of 2022 to RMB2,116 million in the first quarter of 2023. The increase was driven by increases in loan facilitation and servicing fees-credit oriented, guarantee income and financing income.
Loan facilitation and servicing fees-credit oriented increased by 277% from RMB256 million in the first quarter of 2022 to RMB964 million in the first quarter of 2023. The increase was primarily due to the significant increase in off-balance sheet loans originated under the credit-oriented model.
Guarantee income increased by 118% from RMB254 million in the first quarter of 2022 to RMB554 million in the first quarter of 2023. The increase was primarily driven by the increase in loan originations and the increase of outstanding balances in the off-balance sheet loans funded by certain institutional funding partners, which are accounted for under ASC 460, Guarantees.
Financing income increased by 54.6% from RMB387 million in the first quarter of 2022 to RMB598 million in the first quarter of 2023. The increase was primarily driven by the increase in the origination of on-balance sheet loans.
Tech-empowerment service income decreased by 26.0% from RMB497 million in the first quarter of 2022 to RMB368 million in the first quarter of 2023. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in APR of loans originated under the profit-sharing model within tech-empowerment service in the first quarter of 2023.
Installment e-commerce platform service income increased by 56.6% from RMB319 million in the first quarter of 2022 to RMB499 million in the first quarter of 2023. The increase was primarily driven by the increase in transaction volume in the first quarter of 2023.
Cost of sales increased by 42.1% from RMB328 million in the first quarter of 2022 to RMB466 million in the first quarter of 2023, which was consistent with the increase in installment e-commerce platform service income.
Funding cost increased by 59.6% from RMB94.3 million in the first quarter of 2022 to RMB150 million in the first quarter of 2023, which was consistent with the increase in funding debts to fund the on-balance sheet loans.
Processing and servicing costs increased by 14.4% from RMB462 million in the first quarter of 2022 to RMB529 million in the first quarter of 2023. This increase was primarily due to an increase in risk management and collection expenses.
Provision for financing receivables was RMB139 million for the first quarter of 2023, as compared to RMB45.5 million for the first quarter of 2022. The credit losses reflect the most recent performance in relation to the Company’s on-balance sheet loans.
Provision for contract assets and receivables was RMB142 million in the first quarter of 2023, as compared to RMB71.2 million in the first quarter of 2022. The increase was primarily due to the significant increase in loan facilitations and servicing fees in the first quarter of 2023.
Provision for contingent guarantee liabilities was RMB653 million in the first quarter of 2023, as compared to RMB250 million in the first quarter of 2022. The increase was primarily due to the increase in loan origination of the off-balance sheet loans funded by certain institutional funding partners, which are accounted for under ASC 460, Guarantees.
Gross profit increased by 96% from RMB461 million in the first quarter of 2022 to RMB903 million in the first quarter of 2023.
Sales and marketing expenses increased by 22.1% from RMB360 million in the first quarter of 2022 to RMB440 million in the first quarter of 2023. This increase was primarily due to an increase in online advertising costs.
Research and development expenses decreased by 15.1% from RMB153 million in the first quarter of 2022 to RMB130 million in the first quarter of 2023, as a result of the Company’s improved efficiency.
General and administrative expenses decreased by 17.1% from RMB117 million in the first quarter of 2022 to RMB97.0 million in the first quarter of 2023, as a result of the Company’s expense control measures.
Change in fair value of financial guarantee derivatives and loans at fair value was a gain of RMB156 million in the first quarter of 2023, as compared to a gain of RMB263 million in the first quarter of 2022. The change in fair value was primarily driven by the fair value gains realized as a result of the release of guarantee obligation, along with the re-measurement of the expected loss rates and changes in the balances of the underlying outstanding off-balance sheet loans as of March 31, 2023.
Income tax expense increased by 283% from RMB19.4 million in the first quarter of 2022 to RMB74.3 million in the first quarter of 2023. The increase in income tax expense was consistent with the increase in the income before income tax expense in the first quarter of 2023.
Net income increased by 302% from RMB81.5 million in the first quarter of 2022 to RMB327 million in first quarter of 2023.
Recent Developments
Update on Share Repurchase Program

Up to date, the Company has repurchased approximately 22 million ADSs for approximately US$48 million under these repurchase programs, in aggregate.
Outlook

These estimates reflect the Company's current expectation, which is subject to change.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures Statement
In evaluating our business, we consider and use adjusted net income attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company, non-GAAP EBIT, adjusted net income per ordinary share and per ADS attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company, 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 attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company as net income attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company excluding share-based compensation expenses, interest expense associated with convertible notes, and investment income and we define non-GAAP EBIT as net income excluding income tax expense, share-based compensation expenses, interest expense, net, and investment income.
We present these non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by our management to evaluate our operating performance and formulate business plans. Adjusted net income attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company enables our management to assess our operating results without considering the impact of share-based compensation expenses, interest expense associated with convertible notes, 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 expense, share-based compensation expenses, interest expense, net, and investment income. We also believe that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures facilitates 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 attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company and non-GAAP EBIT is that they do not reflect all items of income and expense that affect our operations. Share-based compensation expenses, interest expense associated with convertible notes, income tax expense, interest expense, net, and investment income have been and may continue to be incurred in our business and are not reflected in the presentation of adjusted net income attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company 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 each of the non-GAAP financial measures 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.
