Yirendai Reports Third Quarter 2016 Financial Results

BEIJING, November 15, 2016 – Yirendai Ltd. (NYSE: YRD) (“Yirendai” or the “Company”), a leading online consumer finance marketplace in China, today announced its unaudited financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2016.

Starting from the second quarter of 2016, the Company changed its reporting currency from the U.S. dollar (“US$”) to the Renminbi (“RMB”), to reduce the impact of increased volatility of the RMB to US$ exchange rate on the Company’s reported operating results. The aligning of the reporting currency with the underlying operations will better depict the Company’s results of operations for each period. This release contains translations of certain RMB amounts into US$ for convenience^[1]. Prior period numbers have been recast into the new reporting currency.

In the third quarter of 2016, Yirendai facilitated RMB 5,617.5 million (US$842.4 million) of loans to 92,479 qualified individual borrowers on its online marketplace, representing a 120% year-over-year growth; 59% of the borrowers were acquired from online channels; 40.5% of the loan volume was originated from online channels and 98.3% of the online volume was facilitated through the Yirendai mobile application.

In the third quarter of 2016, Yirendai facilitated 171,460 investors with total investment amount of RMB 5,953.5 million (US$892.8 million), 100% of which was facilitated through its online platform and 83.2% of which was facilitated through its mobile application.

For the third quarter of 2016, total net revenue was RMB 876.7 million (US$131.5 million), up 137% from the same period in 2015; net income was RMB 344.3 million (US$51.6 million), representing an increase of 308% from the same period in 2015.

* The sequential decrease of adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to an expense of RMB 81.3 million (US$12.2 million) related to an organized fraud incident concerning one type of Yirendai’s FastTrack loan products, which was first detected in July 2016.

“We are pleased to deliver another quarter of solid business growth as we stayed focused on technology-driven product development and partnership expansion,” commented Ms. Yihan Fang, Chief Executive Officer of Yirendai. “We continued to enhance our credit assessment model during the quarter by adding new data sources, fine-tuning our processing algorithms and introducing more stringent anti-fraud measures. We believe the Interim Measures for the Administration of the Business Activities of Online Lending Information Intermediary Institutions promulgated on August 24^th, 2016 by the China Banking Regulatory Commission, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Public Security and the State Internet Information Office is an important milestone for China’s online lending industry. We believe it will drive the healthy development of the industry and benefit both lenders and borrowers. We are well positioned to expand and strengthen our industry-leading position and are confident that we will be able to provide better services to more customers.”

“Our strong third quarter results were primarily attributable to continued growth in loan origination and stable asset performance,” said Mr. Dennis Cong, Chief Financial Officer of Yirendai. “We enjoyed a tax credit of RMB 151.7 million in this quarter as our subsidiary, Yi Ren Heng Ye, became qualified as a software enterprise which makes it eligible for a favorable income tax rate. We believe this demonstrates to the market our outstanding financial technological capabilities and proven track record of business operations. We are committed to investing in our future growth and enhancing our market leadership.”

Third Quarter 2016 Financial Results

Total amount of loans facilitated in the third quarter of 2016 was RMB 5,617.5 million (US$842.4 million), increased by 120% year over year from RMB 2,551.3 million in the same period of 2015, reflecting strong demand for our products and services. As of September 30, 2016, the Yirendai platform had facilitated approximately RMB 25.7 billion (US$3.8 billion) in loan principal since its inception.

Total net revenue in the third quarter of 2016 was RMB 876.7 million (US$131.5 million), increased by 137% from RMB 370.7 million in the same period of 2015. The increase of total net revenue was mainly attributable to the growth of loan origination volume.

Total fees billed (non-GAAP) in the third quarter of 2016 were RMB 1,322.6 million (US$198.3 million), increased by 125% from RMB 587.8 million in the same period of 2015, driven by the growth of loan origination volume. Upfront fees billed to borrowers in the third quarter of 2016 were RMB 1,192.4 million (US$178.8 million), increased by 109% from RMB 569.2 million in the same period of 2015. Monthly fees billed to borrowers in the third quarter of 2016 were RMB 105.8 million (US$15.9 million), increased by 349% from RMB 23.6 million in the same period of 2015. Service fees billed to investors in the third quarter of 2016 were RMB 110.9 million (US$16.6 million), increased by 318% from RMB 26.6 million in the same period of 2015.

Operating costs and expenses in the third quarter of 2016 were RMB 674.4 million (US$101.1 million), compared to RMB 471.2 million in the previous quarter and RMB 244.4 million in the same period of 2015.

Sales and marketing expenses in the third quarter of 2016 were RMB 423.0 million (US$63.4 million), compared to RMB 355.2 million in the previous quarter and RMB 182.4 million in the same period of 2015. Sales and marketing expenses in the third quarter of 2016 accounted for 7.5% of amount of loans facilitated in this quarter, decreased from 7.8% in the previous quarter as we continued to benefit from the strong investor demand.

Origination and servicing costs in the third quarter of 2016 were RMB 62.4 million (US$9.4 million), compared to RMB 42.7 million in the previous quarter and RMB 27.4 million in the same period of 2015. Origination and servicing costs in the third quarter of 2016 accounted for 1.1% of amount of loans facilitated in the third quarter of 2016, compared to 0.9% in the previous quarter.

General and administrative expenses in the third quarter of 2016 were RMB 189.0 million (US$28.3 million), compared to RMB 73.3 million in the previous quarter and RMB 34.6 million in the same period of 2015. General and administrative expenses in the third quarter of 2016 accounted for 21.6% of total net revenue, compared to 10.0% in the previous quarter. The increase in general and administrative expenses was mainly due to an expense of RMB 81.3 million (US$12.2 million) related to an organized fraud incident, the increased salary expenses as we expanded our technology team and the share-based compensation expenses of RMB 15.3 million (US$2.3 million).

In the third quarter of 2016, the Company recognized an expense of RMB 81.3 million (US$12.2 million) related to an organized fraud incident concerning one type of our FastTrack loan products, which was first detected in July 2016. After uncovering the fraud incident, the Company suspended the offering of the FastTrack loan product in question and made it available again on its marketplace starting late July with more stringent requirements which aim to prevent similar type of fraud incident.

Income tax benefit in the third quarter of 2016 was RMB 132.0 million (US$19.8 million), compared to income tax expense of RMB 43.3 million in the same period of 2015. The income tax benefit was primarily because the Company’s subsidiary Yi Ren Heng Ye Technology Development (Beijing) Co., Ltd. became qualified as a software enterprise which makes it eligible for an exemption of enterprise income tax for 2015 and 2016. Total amount of tax credit in the third quarter of 2016 was RMB 151.7 million (US$22.8 million), including RMB 69.2 million associated with full year 2015 and RMB 82.5 million associated with the first and second quarter of 2016.

Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) in the third quarter of 2016 was RMB 220.7 million (US$33.1 million), decreased by 17% from RMB 265.0 million in the previous quarter and increased by 73% from RMB 127.2 million in the same period of 2015. The sequential decrease of adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to an expense of RMB 81.3 million (US$12.2 million) related to the aforementioned fraud incident in July 2016.

Net income in the third quarter of 2016 was RMB 344.3 million (US$51.6 million), increased by 308% from RMB 84.4 million in the same period of 2015.

Basic income per ADS in the third quarter of 2016 was RMB 5.76 (US$0.86), increased by 29% from RMB 4.46 in the previous quarter and 241% from RMB 1.69 in the same period of 2015.

Diluted income per ADS in the third quarter of 2016 was RMB 5.70 (US$0.85), increased by 28% from RMB 4.46 in the previous quarter and 237% from RMB 1.69 in the same period of 2015.

Net cash generated from operating activities in the third quarter of 2016 was RMB 268.9 million (US$40.3 million), increased by 37% from RMB 196.1 million in the previous quarter and 172% from RMB 98.8 million in the same period of 2015.

As of September 30, 2016, cash and cash equivalents excluding the risk reserve fund balance was RMB 1,106.3 million (US$165.9 million), compared to RMB 1,336.3 million as of June 30, 2016. The decrease of cash and cash equivalents was primarily due to the Company’s increased investment in short-term assets, presented as available-for-sale investments and held-to-maturity investments on balance sheet, to enhance its return from operating cash. As of September 30, 2016, balance of held-to-maturity investments was RMB 172.5 million (US$25.9 million) and balance of available-for-sale investments was RMB 298.0 million (US$44.7 million).

Risk Reserve Fund. In the third quarter of 2016, Yirendai set aside in the risk reserve fund an amount of RMB 376.7 million (US$56.5 million), which is equal to 7% of the loans facilitated through its marketplace^[2] during the period. In the third quarter of 2016, the Company made payments in a total amount of RMB 201.3 million (US$30.2 million) out of the risk reserve fund to pay out the outstanding principal and accrued interest of default loans. As of September 30, 2016, restricted cash balance associated with the risk reserve fund was RMB 930.7 million (US$139.6 million), compared to RMB 755.2 million as of June 30, 2016. The principal balance of performing loans covered by the risk reserve fund was RMB 16,204.6 million (US$2,430.0 million) as of September 30, 2016, compared to RMB 12,963.6 million as of June 30, 2016.

In the third quarter of 2016, Yirendai accrued liabilities from risk reserve fund guarantee of RMB 511.8 million (US$76.8 million), including 81.3 million (US$ 12.2 million) of estimated payouts in excess of its stand ready obligation related to the aforementioned fraud incident that we detected in July 2016. The Company has not adjusted the estimated percentage of expected cash payouts for its ongoing loan facilitation, because the Company believes that the fraud incident does not impact its assessment of the overall default risk for its portfolio given its extent of identification for the fraud incident. The ongoing accrued liability from the risk reserve fund guarantee is equal to 8% of the loans facilitated through its marketplace^[2]. During the quarter, the Company released liabilities of RMB 201.3 million (US$30.2 million) to pay out the outstanding principal and accrued interest of default loans. As of September 30, 2016, liabilities from risk reserve fund guarantee was RMB 1,238.7 million (US$185.8 million).

Delinquency rates. As of September 30, 2016, the overall delinquency rate for loans that are 15-89 days past due was 1.9%, compared to 1.7% as of June 30, 2016. The slight increase of delinquency rates was in line with the Company’s expected delinquency level of its asset portfolio.

Net charge-off rates. As of September 30, 2016, the charge-off rates for Grade A, B, C, and D loans originated in 2015 were 5.1%, 5.9%, 7.5% and 6.1%, respectively, compared to 4.5%, 4.5%, 5.7% and 4.2% as of June 30, 2016. As the 2015 vintage loans continued to mature, the charge off level is within our risk performance expectation.

Other Operating Metrics and Business Results

The following outlook does not take into consideration the impact of stock-based compensation expenses.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In evaluating the business, the Company considers and uses several non-GAAP financial measures, such as fees billed and adjusted EBITDA as supplemental measures to review and assess operating performance. We believe that fees billed and adjusted EBITDA provide useful information about our core operating results, enhance the overall understanding of our past performance and prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by our management in our financial and operational decision-making. The presentation of these 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. Other companies, including peer companies in the industry, may calculate these non-GAAP measures differently, which may reduce their usefulness as a comparative measure. The Company compensates for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measure, all of which should be considered when evaluating our performance. See “Operating Highlights and Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP measures” at the end of this press release.

Currency Conversion

Effective April 1, 2016, the Company changed its reporting currency from US$ to RMB. The change in reporting currency is to reduce the impact of increased volatility of the RMB to the US$ exchange rate on the Company’s reported operating results. The aligning of the reporting currency with the underlying operations will better depict the Company’s results of operations for each period. Prior to April 1, 2016, the Company reported its annual and quarterly consolidated statement of operations, cash flow data and balance sheet in US$. In this announcement, the unaudited financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 are stated in RMB. The related financial statements prior to April 1, 2016 have been recast to reflect RMB as the reporting currency for comparison to the financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2016.

This announcement contains currency conversions of certain RMB amounts into US$ at specified rates solely for the convenience of the reader. Unless otherwise noted, all translations from RMB to US$ are made at a rate of RMB6.6685 to US$1.00, the effective noon buying rate for September 30, 2016 as set forth in the H.10 statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board.
