Jiayin Group Fourth Quarter 2025 Earnings Call - Compliance-first pivot, short-term shrinkage for longer-term quality growth

Summary

Jiayin told investors it chose defense over offense in the new regulatory era, tightening borrower intake and reworking risk controls even as volumes and near-term margins fell. Management highlighted a disciplined pause: Q4 facilitation volume and revenue declined versus the prior year, delinquency peaked then began to improve, and capital cushions were preserved while AI and overseas initiatives were scaled.

The company is steering toward a higher‑quality, concentrated market position. Management emphasized progress on multimodal AI anti-fraud, a reorganized 4+2 AI strategy, and rapid overseas expansion in Indonesia and Mexico. Guidance for Q1 2026 is cautious, with facilitation volume pegged at RMB 18.5–19.5 billion as the firm balances compliance, tech investment, and shareholder returns (dividends and buybacks).

Key Takeaways

  • Management adopted a compliance-first strategy after new regulation, deliberately tightening borrower acquisition and underwriting to protect asset quality.
  • Full-year 2025 loan facilitation volume was reported at RMB 129 billion, roughly +28% year-on-year according to management remarks.
  • Q4 2025 facilitation volume declined to RMB 24.2 billion, down 12.6% year-on-year; Q4 net revenue was RMB 1,090.2 million, down 22.4% year-on-year.
  • Q4 net income fell to RMB 100.6 million (basic/diluted EPS 0.49), and non-GAAP operating income was RMB 120.4 million versus RMB 402.4 million a year earlier.
  • Asset-quality markers: 90+ day delinquency was 2.03% at the end of Q4; management says forward-looking indicators improved entering 2026 following targeted tail-risk isolation.
  • Repeat borrowers now account for 79.4% of loan facilitation volume, up 6.7 percentage points year-on-year, as the company leaned on reactivation and credit limit optimization.
  • Jiayin continues to deepen funding partnerships, stating 79 financial institution partners and 53 institutions in negotiation to adjust to the new funding landscape.
  • Liquidity and capital notes: cash and cash equivalents were RMB 61.8 million at quarter end (down from RMB 124.2 million on Sept 30, 2025); management emphasized disciplined use of remaining buyback capacity.
  • Shareholder returns: paid $41.05 million in cash dividends in 2025 (over +50% YoY) and boosted the buyback program to no less than $80 million, having repurchased ~4.6M ADS for ~$30.4M so far.
  • Costs and investment: sales & marketing and facilitation expenses modestly declined (CNY 498.7M and CNY 328.2M respectively), while R&D rose 21.4% to RMB 121.9M and G&A rose 24.4% to CNY 66.8M.
  • Credit loss dynamics: Q4 included a CNY 20.1M reversal of credit losses versus a CNY 1.2M allowance a year ago, driven mainly by write-backs related to lower expected loss on overseas contingent guarantees.
  • AI strategy upgraded to a 4+2 split into production and non-production tracks, focusing AI on borrower acquisition, risk, and marketing while scaling engineering intelligence, agent assistance, and internal automation.
  • Overseas expansion is a prioritized growth pillar: Indonesia facilitation volume grew ~187% YoY with registered users +119%; Mexico accelerated in Q4 with facilitation volume +105% YoY and registered users +111%, management targets another year of rapid scale and progress toward local profitability.
  • Management gave Q1 2026 guidance of RMB 18.5–19.5 billion in facilitation volume and said it will review targets quarterly, maintaining flexibility amid continued regulatory-driven industry transition.
  • Management estimates its proactive, structured risk actions improved its risk metrics by roughly 25%–30% versus what would have occurred under passive exposure to industry volatility.

Sam Lee, Investor Relations, Jiayin Group: Thank you, operator. Hello, everyone. Thank you all for joining us on today’s conference call to discuss Jiayin Group’s financial results for the fourth quarter of 2025. We released our earnings results earlier today. The press release is available on the company’s website, as well as from Newswire Services.

Please refer to our earnings release, which contains the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures. Please note that unless otherwise stated, all figures mentioned during the conference call are in Chinese renminbi. With that, let me now turn the call over to our CEO, Mr. Yan Dinggui. Mr. Yan will deliver his remarks in Chinese, and I will follow up with corresponding English translations. Please go ahead, Mr. Yan. Hello, everyone. Thank you for joining our fourth quarter and full year 2025 earnings conference call. 2025 was a pivotal year for the industry, marked by deepening regulation and standardized development. Despite the continuously tightening in external environment, we maintained steady progress with...

For the full year, our loan facilitation volume reached RMB 129 billion, representing a year-on-year increase of approximately 28%. We achieved revenue of RMB 6.22 billion, up approximately 7.3% year-on-year, and net income of RMB 1.54 billion, a year-on-year increase of approximately 45.4%, demonstrating our operational resilience amid a complex environment. In the fourth quarter, following the implementation of the new regulation, we observed a continuous decline in comprehensive financing costs alongside higher entry barriers and stricter compliance requirements. In response to this new regulatory landscape, we have proactively collaborated with our funding partners to facilitate necessary adjustments. As of now, we maintain partnerships with 79 financial institutions, with an additional 53 currently in negotiations. We have consistently adhered to the operating philosophy of compliance as the foundation, quality and efficiency as priorities.

We proactively adjusted our borrowing acquisition pace this quarter, adding approximately 407,000 new borrowers, reflecting a year-on-year decline. To further enhance the precision of channel management and the efficiency of marketing spend, we implemented cross-functional collaboration to revamp our channel evaluation framework and to continue to optimize onboarding standards, ongoing monitoring, and off-boarding processes. Additionally, by establishing a more flexible credit limit management system, implementing targeted reactivation strategies for existing borrowers, we effectively unlock the repeat borrowing potential among quality borrowers. Repeat borrowing contribution accounted for 79.4% of loan facilitation volume, an increase of 6.7 percentage points compared to the same period last year.

Yan Dinggui, Chief Executive Officer, Jiayin Group: 四季度以来,风险指标持续承压,我们分阶段推进风控策略的深度重构,通过多人准入收紧、额度调优与产品迭代,实现风险窗口的主动调控与客群结构的精细运行,抵御了部分外部波动对资产质量的冲击。截至四季度末,九十天以上逾期率为2.03%。进入2026年,得益于尾部风险的精准识别、隔离和存量资产组合的结构优化,前瞻性风险指标呈现向好趋势。我们将持续打造长期稳定性与短期波动特征结合的风控系统,构筑稳健运营的压舱石。

Sam Lee, Investor Relations, Jiayin Group: Since the fourth quarter, risk indicators have remained under pressure. We have been advancing a phased, deep restructuring of our risk control strategy, which include multiple rounds of tightening entry criteria, optimizing credit limits, and iterating on product offerings. This has allowed us to proactively manage risk exposure and refine borrower segment structures, mitigating the impact of certain external fluctuations on asset quality. As of the end of the fourth quarter, the 90+ day delinquency ratio was 2.03%. Entering 2026, thanks to precise identification and isolation of tail risks, along with structural optimization of existing asset portfolio, forward-looking risk indicators are showing positive trends. We will continue to build a risk control system that balances long-term stability with short-term dynamics, serving as the balance for steady operations.

Yan Dinggui, Chief Executive Officer, Jiayin Group: 在人工智能领域,2025年我们已经在多模态反欺诈、AI座席辅助、数据智能等方面取得了阶段性进展。2026年,4+2战略将迎来关键升级,我们将原有的四大产品矩阵划分为生产链路与非生产链路两条主线,生产链路聚焦核心业务,创造价值,覆盖获客、风控与营销三大方向,探索AI驱动的优质客群的识别与获取,声画、声纹、图谱等多模态技术在反欺诈中的应用,赋能营销内容的生成与审核。非生产链路围绕日常运营的提质增效,覆盖工程智能、座席辅助与办公智能,重点推进AI编程向代码补全、向自主编程的跃进,人机融合的座席方式,以提升服务质效,并持续完善内部智能化办公体系。与此同时,智能体平台与机器学习平台作为两大基础设施,将持续为上层应用提供底层工具支持。这一调整标志着我们的AI战略完成从能力建设向价值深耕的跨进,从赋能工具真正融入业务价值链,为高质量发展注入确定性增长动力。

Sam Lee, Investor Relations, Jiayin Group: On the artificial intelligence front, we made solid progress in 2025 in multimodal anti-fraud, AI-powered agents, and data intelligence. In 2026, our 4+2 strategy will undergo a key upgrade. We have reorganized our four core pillars into two main tracks, production and non-production. The production track focuses on core business value creation, covering three directions, borrower acquisition, risk management, and marketing. We are exploring AI-driven identification and acquisition of high quality borrower groups, deepening the application of multimodal technologies such as voice print, knowledge graph and anti-fraud, and enabling AI-powered content generation and review and marketing. The non-production track aims to improve efficiency and quality in daily operations, covering engineering intelligence, agent assistance, and office intelligence.

Key initiatives include advancing AI programming from coding completion to autonomous coding, adopting a human machine collaborative agent model to enhance service quality and efficiency, and further upgrading our internal intelligent workplace systems. Meanwhile, our intelligent agent platform and machine learning platform as the two foundational infrastructures will continue to provide underlying tooling support for upper layer applications. This strategic upgrade marks a shift in our AI strategy from capability building to value creation, embedding AI more deeply into our business value chain and providing stronger, more sustainable drivers for development.

Yan Dinggui, Chief Executive Officer, Jiayin Group: 在新业务拓展方面,我们围绕金融产品创新、合作模式创新和海外市场三维度持续发力。产品端,我们积极布局车抵贷和数字微贷赛道,丰富信贷产品矩阵。合作模式上,我们通过联合运营和对接头部流量生态,与多家机构建立深度战略合作关系,全年累计上线项目二十一个,业务规模逐月攀升。海外方面,作为较早布局海外市场的先行者,其战略价值日益凸显。2025年,印尼地区的业务规模同比增长约187%,注册用户数同比增长约119%,规模效应逐步显现。墨西哥业务在四季度显著提速,全年放款总额同比增长约105%,注册用户数同比增长约111%,完成了商业模型的阶段性验证。我们计划以有投资和运营经验的几个国家为锚点,探索其他市场机会,通过跨地域、跨周期的布局,持续驱动海外版图的扩张。

Sam Lee, Investor Relations, Jiayin Group: In terms of new business expansion, we have continued to focus on 3 dimensions, financial product innovation, partnership model innovation, and overseas markets. On the product side, we actively expanded into auto-backed loans and digital intelligent micro loans, enriching our credit product portfolio. In partnership models, we connected with leading traffic ecosystems through joint operations, establishing deep strategic partnerships with multiple institutions. Throughout the year, we launched 21 projects with business scale growing month by month. As an early mover in global markets, its strategic value has become increasingly prominent. In 2025, facilitation volume in Indonesia increased by approximately 187% year-on-year, while registered users grew by approximately 119% year-on-year, demonstrating gradual scale effects. Mexico business accelerated significantly in the fourth quarter.

For the full year, the total loan facilitation volume grew approximately 105% year-on-year, while registered users up approximately 110% year-on-year, marking a key milestone in validating our business model. We plan to use several countries where we have investment and operational experience as anchors to explore opportunities in other markets. Through cross geography and cross-cycle deployment, we will steadily expand our global footprint.

Yan Dinggui, Chief Executive Officer, Jiayin Group: 金融普惠的本质不仅在于服务的触达深度,更在于对社会温度的传递。过去一年,公益行动深入到青少年心理健康与特殊群体帮扶等多个领域,直接培训教师、学生及家长三万余名,覆盖学校一千三百多所,并为六万名师生开展了心理健康测评,以实际行动守护孩子的健康成长。在志愿服务方面,自嘉银志愿服务队成立以来,已有一百二十名成员,累计开展活动二十八次,服务时长近三千八百小时。我们的公益实践与责任担当也获得了来自政府部门、权威媒体及社会机构的多项认可,这不仅是对我们坚持长期主义的肯定,更是我们构筑品牌信任的核心竞争力。

Sam Lee, Investor Relations, Jiayin Group: The essence of financial inclusion lies not only in the depth of service reach, but also in conveying social value. Over the past year, our philanthropic initiatives reached multiple areas including youth mental health and support for special needs groups. We directly trained over 30,000 teachers, students, and parents, covering more than 1,300 schools, and conducted mental health assessments for over 60,000 students and teachers, protecting the healthy growth of children through concrete actions. In terms of volunteering services, since the establishment of the Jiayin Volunteer Service Team, we have grown to 120 members, completed 28 activities, and accumulated nearly 3,800 hours of service. Our philanthropic practices and social responsibility efforts have received multiple recognition from government departments, authoritative media outlets, and social organizations.

This is not only an affirmation of our commitment to long-termism, but also a core competitive advantage in building trust in our brand.

Yan Dinggui, Chief Executive Officer, Jiayin Group: 股东回报方面,2025年公司持续践行与股东共享发展成果的承诺,年内已完成了现金股息派发,累计派发总额达4,105万美元,同比增长超过50%。8月,我们将现行股份回购计划的总额度提升了不少于8,000万美元。截至目前,已回购近460万ADS,总价值约3,040万美元。我们将持续既定的分红政策,灵活运用剩余的回购额度,持续回报股东。

Sam Lee, Investor Relations, Jiayin Group: Regarding shareholder returns, in 2025, we continue to deliver on our commitment to sharing benefit of our development with our shareholders. During the year, we completed cash dividend distributions totaling $41.1 million, representing an increase of over 50% year-on-year. In August, we increased the total quota of the current share repurchase program to no less than $80 million. To date, we have repurchased nearly 4.6 million ADS with total value of approximately $30.4 million. We will maintain our existing dividend policy and make disciplined use of the remaining repurchase capacity to deliver sustainable returns to shareholders.

Yan Dinggui, Chief Executive Officer, Jiayin Group: 鉴于宏观环境仍存在不确定性,公司保持审慎态度。预计2026年一季度的撮合交易量为185至195亿元人民币。我们将以合规保障行稳致远,以创新注入发展动能,持续夯实科技底座,构建抵御周期波动的经营韧性。

Sam Lee, Investor Relations, Jiayin Group: Given the ongoing uncertainty in the macro environment, we maintain a prudent stance and expect loan facilitation volume for the first quarter of 2026 to be between RMB 18.5 billion and RMB 19.5 billion. We will continue to use compliance as our foundation and innovation as our engine to continuously solidify the technological foundation and build resilience against cyclical fluctuations. With that, I will now turn the call over to our CFO, Mr. Chunlin Fan. Please go ahead.

Fan Chunlin, Chief Financial Officer, Jiayin Group: Thank you, Dinggui 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 and all percentage changes refer to year-over-year comparisons unless otherwise noted. As Dinggui Yan noted, amid the liquidity tightening and heightened risk volatility following the new regulatory implementation, we have proactively pivoted to prioritize asset quality over expansion to safeguard our long-term stability. Loan facilitation volume in Q4 was RMB 24.2 billion, representing a decrease of 12.6% from the same period of 2024. Our net revenue was RMB 1,090.2 million, representing a decrease of 22.4% from the same period of 2024. Moving on to costs.

Facilitation and servicing expense was CNY 328.2 million, representing a decrease of 3.3% from the same period of 2024. Reversal of credit losses of uncollectible assets, loans receivable and others was CNY 20.1 million compared with CNY 1.2 million allowance for credit losses from uncollectible assets, loans receivable and others in the same period of 2024, primarily due to write-back of allowance for overseas contingent guarantees arising from lower expected loss rates. Sales and marketing expense was CNY 498.7 million, representing a decrease of 3.6% from the same period of 2024, primarily driven by the improvement in operational efficiency. General and administrative expense was CNY 66.8 million, representing an increase of 24.4% from the same period of 2024, primarily due to an increase in employee costs.

R&D expense was RMB 121.9 million, representing an increase of 21.4% from the same period of 2024, primarily due to an increase in professional service fees and employee costs. non-GAAP income for our operation was RMB 120.4 million, compared with RMB 402.4 million in the same period of 2024. Consequently, our net income for the fourth quarter was RMB 100.6 million, compared with RMB 275.5 million in the same period of 2024. Our basic and diluted net income per share were both 0.49, compared with 1.30 in the fourth quarter of 2024. Basic and diluted net income for ADS were both 1.96 compared with 5.20 in the fourth quarter of 2024.

Each ADS represents 4 class A ordinary shares of the company. We ended this quarter with CNY 61.8 million in cash and cash equivalents, compared with CNY 124.2 million as of September 30, 2025. With that, we can open the call for questions. Ms. Xu, our Chief Risk Officer, and I will answer questions. Operator, please proceed.

Operator: Our first question comes from Yuxuan Chen with Huatai Securities. Your line is open.

Yuxuan Chen, Analyst, Huatai Securities: Hello, management. Thanks for taking my question. I got two questions here. The first one is about the risk. Could the management share how your risk and metrics have been trending in the fourth quarter of 2025 and year to date in 2026? Given the recent volatility in the industry, how have you adjusted your customer acquisition strategy? The second one is about regulation. With the regulatory environment in China continuing to tighten, what are your expectation for growth this year? In particular, how do you see the key metrics like loan facilitation volume and profitability trending? Thanks. That’s all.

Xu Yifang, Chief Risk Officer, Jiayin Group: 第一个问题你谈到的是整个的风险的现状。那大家都知道,这个风险的情况在2025年跟我们的整个政策和政策在行业上的解读是息息相关的。那在这里呢,我们就不做太多的这方面的解读,那也相信就是关注这个行业的发展的朋友们呢,对这个方面都比较熟悉和了解了。

Sam Lee, Investor Relations, Jiayin Group: Hi Yuxian, I’ll answer your first question and Mr. Fan will answer your second question. As you know, risk for this year is highly related to the regulation. I won’t go into too much detail on the interpretation of the new policy and new regulation, because I believe most of the investors in the sector are already quite familiar with the dynamics.

那么我们就谈一下,就是从我们嘉银这个视角上看到我们的整个的内部的这样的一个风险的一个走势哈。整体来讲呢,去年的风险较前一个周期的变化,整个的拉起的时间是长的,然后这个涨势也是比较猛,尤其是在峰值前的四到六周。尤其我们在看到新客的层面呢,就是看到市场在去年9月至10月初呢,是来到了最高峰。那我们看到也看到这个渠道的质量这件事情上面,对这件事情上也有所影响。那不同质量的渠道呢,它在达到高峰值的时间上是略有不同,然后在11月份维持一定的高位,略有下降,到12月份开始明显能看到这个下行的趋势。

From Jiayin’s perspective, compared with the previous cycle, the increase in risk last year was more pronounced and more prolonged, particularly in the first 4-6 weeks leading up to the peak. At the new borrower level, we observed the market reached its peak around late September and to early October. The exact timing is a little bit different across different channels of different quality, but risk levels remain elevated through November before starting to decline in December.

Xu Yifang, Chief Risk Officer, Jiayin Group: 在这过程中,我们主动进行了几个方向的管理,就是渠道组合的调整,另外一个呢,是在模型层面和策略层面的策略的标准,以及整体的绝对获客体量去进行控制。

Sam Lee, Investor Relations, Jiayin Group: During this period, we proactively adjusted our channel mix. We tighten our standards in the new borrower models and strategies and control the absolute volume of new borrower acquisition.

Xu Yifang, Chief Risk Officer, Jiayin Group: 那来到老客层面,尤其在老客新增资产层面,我们看到这个过去的这样一个信贷周期,是于11月份来到我们最高点,在12月份以后开始慢慢的回落。同样在风险管理上面,我们也是挑选更为稳健的、更具抗压性的客户,进行准入和持续向他们提供服务。那在多共债和弱资产或者融资能力较差的客户,尤其是准新客这些层面,采取了更加谨慎的准入和比较审慎的额度管理。

Sam Lee, Investor Relations, Jiayin Group: From the repeat borrower side, for the incremental assets from the repeat borrowers, risk peaked in November and then gradually declined starting in December. In response, we adopted a more selective and disciplined approach to risk management, focusing on higher quality and more resilient borrowers for approval. We also applied more stringent underwriting and credit limit management for customers who are higher risks with multiple outstanding debts, weaker asset profiles, and limited financing capacity, particularly among the near-prime or marginal borrowers.

Xu Yifang, Chief Risk Officer, Jiayin Group: 整个这个结构性的管理还取得比较有效的一个结果。根据我们自己内部的分析的话,在过去的这个行业性的风险波动周期下,我们的主动的管理措施对风险的压降至少取得了25%到30%这样的一个优化的成果。

Sam Lee, Investor Relations, Jiayin Group: Overall our structured risk management approach has delivered tangible results and based on our internal analysis, amid the broad industry-wide risk cycle, our measures contributed to an improvement in risk metrics by approximately 25%-30%.

Xu Yifang, Chief Risk Officer, Jiayin Group: 一月份以来,我们比较密切地关注整个行业的体量的发展,因为不管平台也好,还是我们合作的金融机构,其实仍然在消化去年的风险震荡带来的影响。目前来看的话,新增的风险在持续的优化,在整个获客,因为一个问题是提到这个获客的方向,那在获客方向的话,我们还是比较谨慎的,从渠道的选择上面会偏向去看头部的流量平台和低价的这个渠道的获客,那也是为长期的整个客户结构的调优去不断地努力。

Sam Lee, Investor Relations, Jiayin Group: Since January, we have been closely monitoring the overall industry volume trends. Both the platforms and our financial institutional partners are really still digesting the impacts of last year’s risk volatility. With that said, we’re still seeing continued improvement in our new risk vintages. Since your question is on the customer acquisition front, we remain cautious in ramping up volumes. In terms of s-channel strategy, we’re really prioritizing the leading traffic platforms and lower cost acquisition channels, so that we can optimize the personal mix for the long term.

Xu Yifang, Chief Risk Officer, Jiayin Group: 那么第二个问题的话,我把这个话题交给我们的CFO Charlie。

Sam Lee, Investor Relations, Jiayin Group: Okay, for the second question, I’ll hand it over to our CFO, Mr. Charlie Fan.

Fan Chunlin, Chief Financial Officer, Jiayin Group: 好,谢谢Yuxian。对Yuxian的第二个问题是关于,就是说这个目前监管持续收紧的情况下,这个公司对于今年的发展的一个预期,就特别提到撮合体量和盈利能力这两个核心指标。那么应该讲到2025年这个全年来看,公司完成的这个撮合交易量190亿,营收和净利润分别达到62.2亿和15.4亿,全年的净利润率是达到了24.14%。

Sam Lee, Investor Relations, Jiayin Group: Yuxian, your second question is on the effects of the regulation and metrics. For the full year of 2025, we achieved total facilitation volume of RMB 129 billion, with revenue and net profit reaching RMB 6.2 billion and RMB 1.54 billion respectively, representing a net margin of 24.7%.

Fan Chunlin, Chief Financial Officer, Jiayin Group: 我们看到在2025年第二季度以后,特别是助贷新规正式落地实施以来,行业的流动性是逐步地趋紧的,而且整个行业的风险是出现了明显的上升态势。刚刚徐总也提到了,那么在这个大背景下,我们是主动地收紧投放,重构了我们的风控策略。季度的撮合交易量在第二季度的371亿历史高点后,Q3和Q4我们持续缩量,Q4的交易量我们降到了242亿,营收和净利润分别为4.9亿和1亿,净利润率也是下降到了9.2%。

Sam Lee, Investor Relations, Jiayin Group: We see since the second quarter of 2025, particularly following the formal implementation of the new regulations, industry liquidity has gradually tightened and risk levels have shown a clear upward trend. Against this backdrop, we proactively tighten our standards and restructure our risk management strategies. After reaching a historical quarterly peak of RMB 37.1 billion in facilitation volume in Q2, we continue to scale back in Q3 and Q4, with Q4 volume declining to RMB 24.2 billion. Revenue and net profit for the quarter were RMB 1.09 billion and RMB 100 million respectively, with net margin declining to 9.2%.

Fan Chunlin, Chief Financial Officer, Jiayin Group: 与几家头部的同业公司一样,就伴随着这个定价的下行、风险数据的短期波动和快速缩量带来的规模不经济,我们短期的利润率是面临了一定的压力。

Sam Lee, Investor Relations, Jiayin Group: Similar to other leading players in the industry, we have faced short-term pressure on profitability due to declining pricing, volatility and risk metrics and diseconomies of scale resulting from rapid volume contraction.

Fan Chunlin, Chief Financial Officer, Jiayin Group: 然后这个如同我们前几次业绩会上多次提及的,新规落地会抬高整个行业的门槛,提升市场的集中度。那么作为一家头部平台,嘉银科技在经历短期的风险波动和规模收缩后,中长期我们会进入高质量的温和增长的一个新阶段。我们也清晰地看到了这个整个行业的风险。在经历几个季度的上行之后,各类资产的风险指标已经不同程度地出现了企稳优化的迹象。

Sam Lee, Investor Relations, Jiayin Group: With that said, as we’ve iterated in previous earnings call, the implementation of the new regulation is expected to raise industry entry barriers and increase market concentration. As a leading platform, we believe that Jiayin Technology can navigate through this period of short term risk volatility and scale adjustment. We are well positioned to enter a new phase of high quality, moderate growth over the medium to long term. Encouragingly, after several quarters of rising risk across the industry, we are beginning to observe the early signs of stabilization and improvement in asset quality.

Fan Chunlin, Chief Financial Officer, Jiayin Group: 我们将继续坚守合规为本的经营原则,动态观察风险数据和市场和政策的变化,基于行业的基本面,适时地调整我们的经营策略。鉴于未来一段时间,行业依然将处于新规带来的变革时期,我们将保持充分的灵活度,我们会按照季度来审视我们的这个业绩目标。刚刚严总提到,我们2026年Q1的交易指引是185到195亿。

Sam Lee, Investor Relations, Jiayin Group: Looking ahead, we’ll continue to operate with the compliance as our foundation, closely monitoring changes in risk trends and market liquidity, and dynamically adjusting our strategy in line with the evolving industry fundamentals. Given that the industry is still undergoing a transition period following the new regulations, we will maintain a high degree of flexibility and review our target on quarterly basis. As Dinggui Yan mentioned, for the first quarter of 2026, we expect the facilitation volume to be in the range of RMB 18.5 billion-RMB 19.5 billion.

Fan Chunlin, Chief Financial Officer, Jiayin Group: 好,谢谢Yuxuan的问题。

Sam Lee, Investor Relations, Jiayin Group: Thank you, Yuxian.

Operator: Thank you. Our next question comes from Roxy Liu with Kaiyu Capital. Your line is open.

Roxy Liu, Analyst, Kaiyu Capital: Thank you, operator. 管理层晚上好,我的问题是关于海外业务的。可以看到在2025年,公司的海外业务实现了快速增长。管理层能否分享一下嘉银海外业务的发展战略跟展望?下面我将翻译一下我的问题。Given the rapid growth of the company’s overseas business in 2025, could the management elaborate on Jiayin’s strategic roadmap and the future outlook in the overseas market? Thank you.

Xu Yifang, Chief Risk Officer, Jiayin Group: 好,Roxy 你好,我就是来谈一下这个海外业务的一个发展情况哈。就像你说就是在我们今天来谈金融科技,那海外业务是整个行业也都比较关注,尤其对嘉银来讲也是比较专注去培育的一个增长型的业务。前面呢,就是严总跟大家介绍了我们在印尼和墨西哥市场的发展呢,在2025年呢,是实现了累计的这个增长的,往而这个一个这样的一个成果。

Sam Lee, Investor Relations, Jiayin Group: Hi, Roxy, I’ll answer your questions on the overseas part. In today’s Fintech landscape, the international business has really become a key growth pillar that we’re actively cultivating. As Mr. Yang mentioned earlier, our operations in Indonesia and Mexico have both been growing at a strong pace, with volumes roughly doubling year-over-year in 2025. We expect this momentum to continue. From the scale perspective, we look to do the same in 2026. Another year of doubling in scale. At the same time, on the quality front, both markets are expected to reach important strategic milestones in moving towards profitability. From a business model perspective, we will continue to deepen our localization strategy, expanding partnerships with local financial institutions and enhancing our ability to serve and power the local financial ecosystem.

At the same time, we’ll continue to broaden our collaboration with international financial institutions to capture synergies from our global strategy. For the new countries and markets, we’ve been actively laying the groundwork for expansion into new markets, so we look forward to sharing more progress with you later in 2026. Thank you. That’s my answer on the international part.

Operator: Thank you. Seeing no more questions, I will return the call back to Sam for closing remarks. Please go ahead.

Sam Lee, Investor Relations, Jiayin Group: Thank you, operator, and thank you all for participating on today’s call. We appreciate your interest and look forward to reporting to you again next quarter on our progress.

Operator: Thank you all again. This concludes the call. You may now disconnect.
