"During the fourth quarter of 2019, we enhanced collaborations with existing trust company partners while broadening financing sources to drive down overall financing cost," commented Mr. Zhai Bin, Chairman and CEO of CNFinance. "In collaboration with our largest trust company partner, China FOTIC, the Company established a new trust plan, under which the Company is able to instantly repay funds to trust companies after borrowers made payments for the underlying loans. We believe this has contributed to positive financial results with lower funding costs. Also, during the fourth quarter of 2019, we established several trust plans with other trust companies, reducing the overall financing cost. At the same time, after assessing future property price and liquidity uncertainties in some cities in China, we accelerated the disposal of non-performing assets to better manage risks. As the result of the Company's generally low LTV ratio, we were able to maintain a high recovery rate on those assets. The fourth quarter of 2019 witnessed the continued expansion of our new collaboration model, as of December 31, 2019, we have signed cooperation agreements with around 1,300 sales partners, of which about 700 have already originated loans helping the fourth quarter loan origination volume to reach RMB2.0 billion. Moreover, we constantly strive to provide better service to our sales partners, and the online application we launched in the third quarter of 2019 has been well-received. We believe that it has made the loan application more accessible, while improving operational efficiency.

We expect 2020 to be a challenging year for CNFinance, but we also believe it would bring along many opportunities at the same time. As a leading home equity loan service provider in China, we will leverage our resources and knowledge gained from years of experience in the home equity loan business to provide better products and services to our customers. We will strive to continuously provide accessible, affordable and efficient financing solutions to micro-and small- enterprise ("MSE") owners in China."

Income tax expenses decreased by 37.2% to RMB186.4 million (US$26.7 million) for the fiscal year of 2019 as compared to RMB296.8 million for the same period of 2018, primarily due to the decrease in the amount of taxable income.

Net income decreased by 37.9% to RMB534.6 million (US$76.6 million) for the fiscal year of 2019 as compared to RMB860.9 million for the same period of 2018.

Basic and diluted earnings per ADS were RMB7.80 (US$1.12) and RMB7.29 (US$1.04), respectively, compared to RMB13.76 and RMB12.39, respectively, in the same period of 2018. One ADS represents 20 ordinary shares.

As of December 31, 2019, the Company held cash and cash equivalents of RMB1.7 billion (US$244.5 million), compared with RMB3.2 billion as of December 31, 2018. The decrease was primarily due to the reduction of idle cash allowed by instant repayments to trust companies after borrowers made payments for the underlying loans.

The aggregate delinquency rate for loans originated by the Company, which is calculated by dividing (i) total balance of outstanding loan principal for which any installment payment is past-due (for one or more days) as of a particular date, by (ii) the aggregate total amount of loans we originated since 2014, decreased from 7.6% as of December 31, 2018 to 5.4% as of December 31, 2019.

Recent Development

In January 2020, a novel strain of coronavirus was reported to have surfaced in China, known as COVID-19, which soon spread throughout China and certain other countries. The COVID-19 outbreak is expected to impose interruptions on China's macroeconomy and may adversely impact our results of operations. The COVID-19 outbreak has caused, and may continue to cause, companies in China to implement adjustment of work schemes, impose additional quarantine measures or even temporary or permanent business closure. Results of operations for MSEs, whose owners are our primary customer group, may be materially and adversely impacted. As a result of the COVID-19 outbreak, our normal work schedule and results of operations may be adversely impacted, and our revenues for this period may be difficult to predict. The COVID-19 outbreak may also have a material adverse effect on China's real estate market, which may increase the risks of the loans we facilitate. Many cities in China are also subject to temporary lockdown, travel restriction or other forms of quarantine. The extent to which COVID-19 impacts our results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19 and the actions to contain or treat its impact, among others.

Business Outlook

For the first quarter of 2020, based on the information available as of the date of this press release, after taking into consideration of the COVID-19 outbreak, which will affect the operation of MSEs whose owners are our main customers, we expect to be breakeven in the first quarter of 2020. The first quarter, which also encompasses the Chinese New Year holiday, is generally also the slowest quarter of the year for loan originations.

The above outlook is based on the current market conditions and reflects our current and preliminary estimates of market and operating conditions, which are all subject to substantial uncertainty.
