Datos financieros clave

Rendimiento comercial y operativo

CNFinance restringió deliberadamente los nuevos préstamos y destinó recursos a mitigar el riesgo en su cartera existente. La directiva describió la estrategia como el aprovechamiento de los activos existentes al tiempo que se optimizan los nuevos activos, reconociendo que esto ejerce presión sobre el rendimiento a corto plazo, pero tiene como objetivo respaldar la estabilidad a más largo plazo.

La empresa también optimizó su plantilla y su estructura organizativa, lo que contribuyó a la reducción del 74% en los gastos de explotación.

Para estabilizar la financiación, CNFinance incorporó a nuevos inversores institucionales, principalmente sociedades de gestión de activos locales. También perfeccionó los productos existentes y lanzó nuevos productos diseñados para responder a la demanda del mercado.

Perspectivas de la dirección

La directiva señaló que CNFinance seguirá centrándose en tres prioridades: reducir la morosidad mediante múltiples herramientas de recuperación, mantener canales de financiación estables y respaldar el desarrollo de nuevos negocios. La empresa no ofreció previsiones financieras cuantitativas.

Riesgos y aspectos a vigilar

La tasa de morosidad se situó en el 16,9%, mientras que la provisión por deterioro de 31,3 millones de RMB fue el factor principal de la pérdida neta del primer semestre. Los acusados descensos en las originaciones, las operaciones, los saldos de préstamos y los ingresos por intereses también ponen de relieve la presión a corto plazo sobre el rendimiento asociada a la estrategia de reducción de riesgos de la empresa.

La directiva citó además las continuas dificultades del mercado y subrayó la necesidad de contener los préstamos morosos y preservar canales de financiación estables.

[Interpreted] Hello, everyone. In the first half of 2025, amidst the complex and ever-changing market environment, CNF adhered to the guiding principle of survival first, victory first, actively tackled challenges and steadily advanced strategic adjustments and business optimizations. Now I'd like to report to you on our operational and financial performance for the first half of the year.

As of June 30, 2025, our company has signed a total of 2,184 sales partners, marking a year-on-year increase of 2%. We had an aggregate of 1,485 sales partners who have introduced borrowers to us, representing a 3.3% growth. However, due to our proactive efforts to control loan issuance and focus on reducing nonperforming loans in our existing portfolio, the number of loan transactions decreased by 78.1% year-on-year and the total loan origination dropped by 85.4%.

By the end of the second quarter, our loan balance stood at RMB 11.2 billion, a decrease of 29.6% compared to that of last year. We adhere to the strategy of leveraging existing assets and optimizing new ones, focusing our resources on risk mitigation and asset quality enhancement. Although this approach puts pressure on short-term performance, it lays a solid foundation for long-term steady growth.

In the first half of the year, our interest income was RMB 416 million, a decline of 55% year-on-year. Financing costs decreased by 32% and operating expenses fell by 74%, demonstrating the company's strong cost control capabilities. Our net loss was RMB 40.4 million, primarily due to an impairment loss provision of RMB 31.3 million.

As of June 30, 2025, the nonperforming loan ratio of the company's loan was 16.9%. Although the NPL ratio rose, the increase of new NPLs was effectively contained. Through diversified NPL reduction measures, the company achieved 103% NPL recovery rate in the first half. During the first half, the company optimized its organizational structure and streamlined personnel, resulting in a significant reduction in operating costs.

In one word, our key priorities in the first half included: first, reducing NPLs by innovating and leveraging effective reduction tools. Second, we've stabilized our funding source by bringing in a bunch of new institutional investors, mainly local AMCs to ensure smooth financing channels. Third, we have expanded into new business areas. We refined our existing products and launched new ones that meet market demands.

Facing continued market challenges, the company will uphold the survival first, victory first principle. With containing nonperforming loans and optimizing new growth as the core strategy, we will persist in the 3 key priorities; dedicating resources to NPL reduction, ensuring stable funding channels and supporting new business development.
