Commenting on the financial results of third quarter of 2021, Mr. Chunlin Wang, chairman and chief executive officer of Fanhua, stated, “China's life insurance industry continues to be under pressure in 2021, as consumer confidence has not yet fully recovered from concerns over macroeconomic uncertainties, especially for products such as life insurance that are not considered to be imminently-needed. Total gross written premiums (“GWP”) in the life insurance industry fell by 1.9% year-over-year in the third quarter of 2021.

“Fanhua's overall performance in the third quarter of 2021 was in line with our expectations: total GWP hit RMB2.7 billion, representing a year-over-year increase of 8.9%, outperforming the industry. New policy sales reached RMB567.0 million, growing by 11.2% quarter-over-quarter. Operating income achieved RMB28.2 million, surpassing previous guidance.

“We are happy that we made good progress in executing Fanhua’s ‘Professionalization, Digitalization and Open Platform’ strategy in the third quarter of 2021, among which, we completed the target of building 10,000 digital entrepreneurial teams well ahead of schedule. We are currently focused on operating WeCom-based chat groups of these digital entrepreneurial teams to drive conversion.

“Meanwhile, Fanhua is actively advancing product customization and has made remarkable achievements. Since the beginning of this year, Fanhua, together with insurers and reinsurers, has co-launched 9 customized products, ranging from whole life, annuity, critical illness and term life insurance to million-yuan medical insurance. In the third quarter of 2021, customized products contributed over 30% to our total new policy sales.

“Looking forward to the fourth quarter of 2021, we see both challenges and opportunities. The Notice on Further Regulating the Internet Life Insurance Business of Insurance Institutions (referred to as the ‘New Regulation’) issued by China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission on October 22, 2021 has become a trending topic in the industry. The rationale behind the New Regulation is to refocus on offline insurance distribution, particularly for longer term high-value products. Insurers and brokers with extensive offline sales network coverage will significantly benefit from the New Regulation and usher in broader development opportunities over the long run. 

“We believe that our Professionalization, Digitalization and Open Platform strategy and our positioning of catering to the needs of 400 million middle-class families for family asset-allocation services well align with market trends and we are on the right track to fully capitalizing on the market opportunities.

“In the fourth quarter of 2021, Fanhua remains focused on the execution of our growth strategy, and get well prepared for the Jumpstart Sales Campaign 2022 to achieve our full year target for 2021 while winning a good start for 2022. Operating income is expected to reach approximately RMB80 million for the fourth quarter of 2021.”

    • Net revenues for the life insurance business were RMB525.2 million (US$81.5 million) for the third quarter of 2021, representing a decrease of 19.5% from RMB652.4 million for the corresponding period in 2020. The decrease was mainly due to the continued adverse impact on demand for critical illness insurance after the strong sales prior to the transition to the new critical illness definition framework in the first quarter of 2021. In the third quarter of 2021, total life insurance GWP increased by 9.0% year-over-year to RMB2.6 billion, of which first year premiums decreased by 16.7% year-over-year to RMB485.3 million and renewal premiums increased by 17.2% year-over-year to RMB2,140.9 million.  During the current period, estimated variable renewal commissions related to long-term life insurance products of RMB50.3 million (US$7.8 million) was recognized in our financial statements.

Net revenues for the P&C insurance business are mainly derived from commissions for short term products, including accident insurance, medical insurance, travel insurance and homeowner insurance products facilitated on Baowang (www.baoxian.com). The decrease was primarily due to a slight decrease in average commission rate due to changes in product mix. Revenues generated from the P&C insurance business accounted for 5.4% of our total net revenues in the third quarter of 2021.
  • Net revenues for the claims adjusting business were RMB121.4 million (US$18.8 million) for the third quarter of 2021, representing an increase of 0.8% from RMB120.4 million for the corresponding period in 2020.

      • Costs of the P&C insurance business were RMB25.9 million (US$4.0 million) for the third quarter of 2021, representing an increase of 4.0% from RMB24.9 million for the corresponding period in 2020. The costs of the P&C insurance business mainly represent commission costs we incurred for operating Baowang (www.baoxian.com). The increase in the cost of P&C insurance business was mainly due to a slight increase in rates of commission costs paid to agents.

  • Selling expenses were RMB71.6 million (US$11.1 million) for the third quarter of 2021, representing a decrease of 8.8% from RMB78.5 million for the corresponding period in 2020. The decrease was due to decreased sales events, offset by increased contributions to employees' defined contribution plans which had a lower base in the same period of last year as the government waived the contribution in 2020 in view of the impact of COVID-19.
  • General and administrative expenses were RMB142.9 million (US$22.2 million) for the third quarter of 2021, representing an increase of 20.2% from RMB118.9 million for the corresponding period in 2020.

The investment income in the third quarter of 2021 consisted of yields from short-term investments in financial products. The decrease in investment income was mainly due to a decrease in cash available for investment in short-term investment products.

Income tax expense was RMB9.3 million (US$1.4 million) for the third quarter of 2021, representing a decrease of 56.3% from RMB21.3 million for the corresponding period in 2020 due to the decrease in taxable income.

Share of income of affiliates was RMB2.5 million (US$0.4 million) for the third quarter of 2021, representing a decrease of 73.1% from RMB9.3 million for the corresponding period in 2020, mainly attributable to the decrease in income from CNFinance Holdings Limited.
