Good afternoon, everyone. Thank you for joining Jiayin Group Inc.'s Third Quarter 2025 Earnings Conference Call. In the third quarter, China's GDP grew by 4.8% year-on-year, slowing from 5.2% in the previous quarter but remaining stable overall. Consumption continued to play a dominant role, contributing 56.6% to growth. Meanwhile, demand for consumer finance has been rising steadily. A narrow consumer credit balance up 4.2% year-on-year as of September 30 signals from the recent regulatory policies indicate that coordinated efforts to stabilize growth, boost consumption, and advance inclusive finance are creating a favorable environment for our long-term healthy and sustainable development of the industry. In this quarter, the company facilitated RMB 32.2 billion in loan volume, a year-on-year increase of approximately 20.6%, and reported non-GAAP income from operation of RMB 190 million, up around 50.3% year-on-year, achieving our previously issued guidance. During the reporting period, the company maintained cooperation with 75 financial institutions, with another 64 under negotiation. We have been included in the white list by most of our partner financial institutions, providing a solid foundation for stable funding supply. Leveraging our technological strength, tropical management capabilities, and risk control expertise, we enhance our funding partners' capital allocation efficiency, accurately align with their risk preferences, and actively explore new models for business collaboration. Against the backdrop of industry contraction and tightening liquidity, we observed pressure on overall risk indicators and fluctuations in asset quality. In response, we rapidly iterated our risk control model, continuously tightened strategies for high-risk, high-volatility users, and introduced models combining long-term and short-term perspectives to enhance the flexibility and timeliness of risk monitoring, thereby enabling sharp insight into risk trends and enabling timely responses. At the end of the third quarter, the ninety-plus day delinquency rate stood at 1.33%. We will remain committed to prudent operations,…

Thank you, Mr. Yan, and hello, everyone, for joining our call today. I will now review our financial highlights for the quarter. Please note that all numbers will be in RMB. All percentage changes refer to year-over-year comparisons unless otherwise noted. As Mr. Yan noted earlier, we demonstrated robust business resilience in Q3 and successfully achieved our financial guidance. Loan facilitation volume was RMB 32.2 billion, representing an increase of 20.6% from the same period of 2024. Our net revenue was RMB 1.47 billion, representing an increase of 1.8% from the same period of 2024. Moving on to costs, facilitation and servicing expense was RMB 286.5 million, compared with RMB 419.1 million for the same period of 2024. This was primarily due to decreased expenses related to financial guarantee services. Allowance for uncollectible receivables, contract assets, loans receivable, and others was RMB 1.5 million, representing a decrease of 87.1% from the same period of 2024, primarily due to decreased allowance for overseas loans as a result of disposal of Nigerian entities during 2024 and the gross slowdown of receivables from loan facilitation business. Sales and marketing expense was RMB 544.2 million, representing a decrease of 1.1% from the same period of 2024. General and administrative expense was RMB 72.4 million, representing an increase of 29% from the same period of 2024, primarily driven by an increase in share-based compensation. R&D expense was RMB 108.7 million, representing an increase of 13.3% from the same period of 2024, primarily driven by an increase in expenditures for employee compensation-related benefits. Non-GAAP income from operation was RMB 490.6 million, compared with RMB 326.5 million in the same period of 2024. Consequently, our net income for the third quarter was RMB 370.765 million, representing an increase of 39.7% from the same period of 2024. Our basic and diluted net income per share was RMB 1.83, compared with RMB 1.27 in 2024. Basic and diluted net income for ADS was RMB 7.32, compared with RMB 5.08 in 2024. We ended this quarter with RMB 124.2 million in cash and cash equivalents, compared with RMB 316.2 million at the end of the previous quarter. With that, we can open the call for questions. Ms. Xu, our Chief Risk Officer, and I will answer your questions. Operator, please proceed.

Thank you so much, dear participants. As a reminder, please standby while we compile the Q&A rules. This will take a few moments. And now we are going to take our first question. It comes from the line of Ivan Shu from Coergin Securities. Your line is open. Please ask your question.

Good evening, management. Thank you for taking my questions. I am Yiwen from Synolink Securities. I have two questions. The first one is that after the new regulation took effect in October, what impact have you seen on the business? And could management provide more color on any strategic adjustments and the outlook going forward? This is my first question. Thank you.

Hi, Yiwen. I will do the translation for Ms. Xu. So following the implementation of the new regulation, the impact on the industry has been pretty significant. Most of the changes have been primarily on the downward pressure of pricing and the continued emphasis on consumer protection. So as of October, the asset pricing of our loan facilitation business is fully compliant with the regulatory requirements of our funding partners. As liquidity tightened, we have responded to the pricing pressure and liquidity pressure in the broader industry and the volatility industry. We have really intensified adjustment traffic acquisition and placed a greater focus on cross-industry platforms and optimizing our traffic mix, adopting a more cautious customer acquisition strategy under the current environment. For our existing power base, we have enhanced borrower segmentation. On one hand, we want to improve our risk identification for higher-risk groups. We are utilizing measures such as managing outstanding balances and accelerating runoff based on indicators like recycle elasticity, pricing, and recent frequency to address the segments that are more challenging to operate under lower pricing. On the other hand, through product and pricing adjustments, we have strengthened the efforts to retain and reengage high-quality borrowers who may potentially churn. Taken together, these initiatives are helping us optimize the overall portfolio structure. Regarding asset pricing, it is foreseeable that the downward trend will continue. Our focus is not only navigating through the current period of volatility but also continuously strengthening our ability to operate through risk cycles over the long term. That is my answer for the first question.

Thank you. And given the current environment, how should we think about the revenue take rate and the margin expectations going forward? Thank you.

Thank you, Yiwen. I will answer this question. In 2025, the company facilitated RMB 32.2 billion in volume and delivered RMB 491 million in non-GAAP income from operations, in line with the guidance we previously provided. The net profit for the quarter was RMB 376 million, representing a net margin of 25.6%. In terms of the net margin, it is a slight decrease from the 27.5% net margin in Q2. For the first three quarters, we achieved RMB 1.435 billion in net profit, up 84% year-over-year and already well above the full-year 2024 figure of RMB 1.056 billion. For the full year of 2025, we expect profitability to be significantly higher than 2024. As Ms. Xu mentioned, the new regulation brought short-term pressure to the industry while liquidity and asset quality. As a highly agile technology-driven company, and drawing on our past experience navigating regulatory credit cycles, we made timely and prudent adjustments to our business scale, risk posture, and pricing strategy in response to market conditions. Over the long term, enforcement of the new regulation will raise industry entry barriers and help drive the sector towards a healthier, more orderly, more compliant, and more sustainable development. As the industry shifts towards higher-quality borrower segments, pricing, therefore, revenue take rate is expected to moderate, and margins will return to a healthier and more sustainable level. The company is entering a new phase of high-quality development. I want to reiterate Mr. Yan's guidance that he provided earlier. We expect Q4 volume to reach RMB 23 to 25 billion, bringing full-year facilitation volume to RMB 127.8 to 129.8 billion, approximately 26.8% to 28.8% year-over-year growth. Full-year non-GAAP income from operation guidance is RMB 1.99 to 2.06 billion, approximately 52.3% to 57% growth year-over-year.

Thank you, management. That is very helpful. No more questions. Thank you.
