GUANGZHOU, November 20, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fanhua Inc., (Nasdaq: FANH), (the “Company” or “Fanhua”), a leading independent online-to-offline (“O2O”) financial services provider in China, today announced its unaudited financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2017¹ and declared quarterly Dividend.

 

Financial Highlights for the Third Quarter of 2017:

 

(In thousands, except per ADS)		2016Q3 (RMB)				2017Q3 (RMB)				2017Q3 (US$)				Change %
Total net revenues			1,192,242				1,077,278				161,916				-9.6
Operating income			7,524				83,200				12,505				1,005.8

Diluted net income per ADS			0.53				1.77				0.27				234.0

 

Quarterly Dividend:

 

On November 19, 2017, Fanhua’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of US$0.01 per ordinary share, or US$0.20 per ADS, amounting to a total of US$12.7 million, which represents 75.3% of the Company’s net income attributable to shareholders for the third quarter of 2017. The dividend will be payable on or around December 22, 2017 to shareholders of record on December 10, 2017.

 

Commenting on the third quarter 2017 financial results, Mr. Chunlin Wang, chairman and chief executive officer of Fanhua, stated, “We are glad that the strong growth momentum in our life insurance business continued into the third quarter of 2017, with the total first year premiums on life insurance business growing by 197.5% year over year to RMB851 million.

 

“Driven by the accelerated growth of life insurance business, we beat our prior guidance with RMB83.2 million operating income for the third quarter of 2017, which also means that we’ve exceeded our full year target of RMB180 million operating income, three months ahead of schedule. Our net income attributable to shareholders grew by 249.8% year-over-year to RMB112.3million, providing for a strong base on which to initiate our quarterly dividend policy.

Unless otherwise noted, all translations from RMB to U.S. dollars are made at a rate of RMB6.6533 to US$1.00, the effective noon buying rate as of September 30, 2017 in The City of New York for cable transfers of RMB as set forth in the H.10 weekly statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board.

 

 

“In view of the impact of a new regulation on product design taking effect on October 1, 2017 and the industry norm whereby all life insurance companies and distributors will focus on preparing for 2018 open year sales in the fourth quarter of 2017, we expect that our life insurance business will slow down quarter-over-quarter but we are still optimistic about achieving no less than RMB60 million operating income for the fourth quarter of 2017.”

 

Financial Results for the Third Quarter of 2017

 

Total net revenues were RMB1.1 billion (US$161.9 million) for the third quarter of 2017, representing a decrease of 9.6% from RMB1.2 billion for the corresponding period in2016.

 

●

Net revenues for the life insurance business were RMB730.5 million (US$109.8 million) for the third quarter of 2017, representing an increase of 177.5% from RMB263.2 million for the corresponding period in 2016. The increase was due to the growth in the number of sales agents. Revenues generated from our life insurance business accounted for 67.8% of our total net revenues in the third quarter of 2017.

 

●

Net revenues for the P&C insurance business were RMB274.1 million (US$41.2 million) for the third quarter of 2017, representing a decrease of 67.5% from RMB844.3 million for the corresponding period in 2016. The decrease was primarily due to i) the suspension of business cooperation with PICC Property and Casualty Company Limited (“PICC P&C”) starting from March 1, 2017; and ii) our efforts to spin off lower margin channel businesses starting from the second quarter of 2017. Revenues generated from the P&C insurance business accounted for 25.5% of our total net revenues in the third quarter of 2017.

 

●

Net revenues for the claims adjusting business were RMB72.7 million (US$10.9 million) for the third quarter of 2017, representing a decrease of 14.2% from RMB84.7 million for the corresponding period in 2016. Revenues generated from the claims adjusting business accounted for 6.7% of our total net revenues in the third quarter of 2017.

 

Total operating costs and expenses were RMB994.1 million (US$149.4 million) for the third quarter of 2017, representing a decrease of 16.1% from RMB1,184.7 million for the corresponding period in 2016.

 

●

Commission costs were RMB791.5 million (US$119.0 million) for the third quarter of 2017, representing a decrease of 13.3% from RMB912.5 million for the corresponding period in 2016.

 

♦

Costs of the life insurance business were RMB511.4 million (US$76.9 million) for the third quarter of 2017, representing an increase of 181.2% from RMB181.9 million for the corresponding period in 2016. The increase was in line with the growth in sales. Costs incurred by the life insurance business accounted for 64.6% of our total commission costs in the third quarter of 2017.

 

 

♦

Costs of the P&C insurance business were RMB236.6 million (US$35.6 million) for the third quarter of 2017, representing a decrease of 65.3% from RMB681.7 million for the corresponding period in 2016. The decrease was primarily in line with the decline in channel businesses. Costs incurred by the P&C insurance business accounted for 29.9% of our total commission costs in the third quarter of 2017.

 

♦

Costs of claims adjusting business were RMB43.5 million (US$6.5 million) for the third quarter of 2017, representing a decrease of 10.8% from RMB48.8 million for the corresponding period in 2016. Costs incurred by the claims adjusting business accounted for 5.5% of our total commission costs in the third quarter of 2017.

 

●

Selling expenses were RMB54.3million (US$8.2 million) for the third quarter of 2017, representing a decrease of 64.8% from RMB154.1 million for the corresponding period in 2016. The decrease was primarily because promotional marketing expenses were paid to sales agents in the third quarter of 2016 while there was no such promotional marketing plan in 2017.

 

●

General and administrative expenses were RMB148.3million (US$22.3 million) for the third quarter of 2017, representing an increase of 25.5% from RMB118.2 million for the corresponding period in 2016. The increase was primarily due to an increase in expenses incurred for setting up new offices and staff recruitment as a result of regional expansion.

 

As a result of the preceding factors, we had an operating income of RMB83.2 million (US$12.5million) for the third quarter of 2017, representing an increase of 1,005.8% from RMB7.5 million for the corresponding period in 2016.

 

Operating margin was 7.7% for the third quarter of 2017, compared to 0.6% for the corresponding period in 2016.

 

Investment income was RMB44.0 million (US$6.6 million) for the third quarter of 2017, representing an increase of 139.5% from RMB18.4 million for the corresponding period in 2016. The investment income represented yields from short-term investments in financial products which mainly consist of inter-bank deposits or collective trust products with terms ranging from half a year to two years and interest payable on a quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis. Our investment income fluctuates from quarter to quarter because investment income is recognized when received.

 

Interest income was RMB11.0 million (US$1.7 million) for the third quarter of 2017, representing an increase of 49 times from RMB0.2 million for the corresponding period in 2016, primarily due to interest related to amounts due from Sincere Fame International Limited (“Sincere Fame”) and Shenzhen Chuangjia Investment Limited Partnership, which beneficially owns 84.6% of Fanhua Puyi Fund Sales Limited.

 

 

Income tax expense was RMB50.3 million (US$7.6 million) for the third quarter of 2017, representing an increase of 773.2% from RMB5.8 million for the corresponding period in 2016. The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2017 was 36.0% compared with 20.2% for the corresponding period in 2016. The increase in effective tax rate was primarily due to the provided deferred income tax pursuant to dividend payments in the third quarter of 2017.

 

Share of income of affiliates was RMB24.1 million (US$3.6 million) for the third quarter of 2017, representing an increase of 84.2% from RMB13.1 million for the corresponding period in 2016, mainly attributable to an increase of profits from Sincere Fame, a company in which we own 20.6% of the equity interest.

 

Net income attributable to the Company’s shareholders was RMB112.3 million (US$16.9 million) for the third quarter of 2017, representing an increase of 249.8% from RMB32.1 million for the corresponding period in 2016.

 

Net margin was 10.4% for the third quarter of 2017 compared with 2.7% for the corresponding period in 2016.

 

Basic and diluted net income per ADS were RMB1.80 (US$0.27) and RMB1.77 (US$0.27) for the third quarter of 2017, respectively, representing increases of 227.3% and 234.0% from RMB0.55 and RMB0.53 for the corresponding period in 2016.

 

As of September 30, 2017, the Company had RMB2.7 billion (US$400.0 million) in cash, cash equivalents and short term investments.
