Mr. Yinan Hu, Co-Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer, commented: “Due to the pricing rate
change in traditional life insurance, China’s life insurance
industry has witnessed substantial fluctuations in premium growth,
with overall growth coming under pressure.”
He added, “In the face of challenges stemming
from policy shifts, we are delighted that our various strategic
initiatives have made commendable progress. The effective
implementation of our established strategies has contributed to the
resilience of our operations.
“We believe that although the changes in pricing
rates and the impending new rule requiring consistency in
commissions reported with the level actually paid may have
short-term impact on the industry, in the long run, they will drive
the industry towards more standardized and sustainable high-quality
development.
“We anticipate that the industry will gradually
transition from being primarily driven by products and fees to
being driven by technology and services in the future. This shift
will enhance the competitiveness of companies with innovative
services and technological capabilities. The industry is likely to
become more concentrated with large insurance intermediary
companies transitioning towards platform-based operations, and
current market challenges will drive more small and medium-sized
intermediary firms to choose collaboration with major platforms to
reduce costs and enhance service capabilities.
“For FANHUA, this trend presents significant
opportunities for our platform-centric development which will
accelerate our transformation from a sales-oriented company to a
platform-centric one, and further foster the growth of our business
scale and market share. We will also continue to strengthen
collaborations with small and medium-sized insurance companies,
creating greater value for them through technology and customer
service, thereby securing more substantial value distribution.”
Ben Lin, co-chairman and chief strategy
officer of FANHUA, commented: “The third quarter was a
very exciting period for FANHUA with many significant developments.
Firstly, together with Tencent Cloud, we hosted our inaugural Open
Platform Day on September 25, 2023 and officially introduced our
sales technology expertise to the broader market. We are pleased to
say that following such event, we have received numerous enquiries
from independent brokers and insurers respectively and have so far
successfully signed up two independent brokers as our digital
tenants.
“The second major development relate to our
overseas expansion. On October 23, 2023, we announced the
establishment of two non-wholly owned subsidiaries with Asia
Insurance Co., Ltd., or Asia Insurance as a noncontrolling
shareholder, which marked our expansion outside of mainland China.
FANHUA will be the majority shareholder of both companies with a
60% equity interest in each. We are confident that by working
closely with Asia Insurance we can extend our strategy of building
quality independent financial distribution and technology-driven
open platform to markets outside of mainland China.
“Thirdly, we have completed most of the IT
integration with Zhongronghuijin ("ZRHJ"), which we acquired 57.73%
equity interests in January 2023. Full completion of the
integration is expected to take place over the fourth quarter and
upon completion, we expect that ZRHJ will realize no less than
RMB5.0 million in annual IT savings in 2024. This acquisition and
its deliverable cost savings serve as strong evidence of the
successful implementation of our acquisition strategy.
“Lastly, while the weak investment market
environment over the quarters has impacted many of our listed
insurance peers, FANHUA was able to report significant increase in
net profit due to an unrealized holding gain on fair value change
over an equity investment as a result of the Nasdaq listing of
Cheche Group Inc., or Cheche, in September 2023. FANHUA currently
holds a 2.8% equity interest in Cheche Group as part of our P&C
disposal transaction with Cheche in 2017. We are very excited to
see Cheche to have completed its going public process.
“Over the coming quarters, taking advantage of
the opportunities presented by the regulatory changes, our
strategic focus will remain on executing on our core strategies
which include driving growth in our Open Platform and Digital
Tenant and exploring value accretive consolidation opportunities
while driving organic growth through enhancing the quality of our
distribution team. In Hong Kong, we will continue to work with Asia
Insurance to map out our business opportunities and build up our
human resources in the two subsidiaries we have established.”
Open Platform and M&A Contributions
over the Third Quarter of 2023
- The number of platform professional
users who used our Open Platform reached 791 as of September 30,
2023, generating RMB165.6 million in first year premiums for the
third quarter of 2023 which accounted for 28.3% of our life
insurance FYP;
- 21.6% of our life insurance FYP and
21.3% of our net revenues for the life insurance business were
generated from entities we acquired within the past 12 months.
Share Repurchase Program
On December 20, 2022, the Company’s board of
directors announced a share repurchase program under which the
Company may repurchase its American depositary shares, or ADSs,
with an aggregate value of US$20 million from time to time. As of
September 30, 2023, the Company had repurchased an aggregate of
495,459ADSs, at an average price of approximately US$7.9 per ADS
for a total amount of approximately US$3.9 million under this share
repurchase program.
Business Outlook and GuidanceWe
expect to deliver 50% year-over-year growth in life insurance first
year premiums and 50% year-over-year growth in adjusted EBITDA2 for
2023.
This forecast is based on the current market
conditions and reflects FANHUA’s preliminary estimate, which is
subject to change caused by various uncertainties.
Analysis of our Financial Results for
the Third Quarter of 2023
Revenues
Total net revenues were
RMB634.6 million (US$86.9 million) for the third quarter of 2023,
representing an increase of 1.6% from RMB624.7 million for the
corresponding period in 2022.
-
Net revenues for agency business were RMB524.1
million (US$71.8 million) for the third quarter of 2023, which
remained relatively stable compared to RMB522.7 million for the
corresponding period in 2022. Total GWP increased by 22.8%
year-over-year to RMB3,525.1 million, of which FYP grew by 10.1%
year-over-year to RMB672.5 million while renewal premiums increased
by 26.2% year-over-year to RMB2,852.6 million.
- Net
revenues for the life insurance business were RMB483.8
million (US$66.3million) for the third quarter of 2023, which
remained relatively stable compared to RMB480.6 million for the
corresponding period in 2022. The slight increase was a net result
mainly due to (i) the business fluctuation caused by the pricing
rate change to life insurance products from 3.5% to 3% effective on
August 1, 2023 which caused a spike in new business sales in July
and then followed by a slow-down in sales in August and September
and (ii) contribution from newly acquired entities, partially
offset by the decrease in renewal commission income as a result of
the decreased portfolio based average renewal commission rate of
renewal premiums collected, and to a lesser extent, due to changes
in product mix.Net revenues generated from our life insurance
business accounted for 76.2% of our total net revenues in the third
quarter of 2023, as compared to 76.9% in the same period of
2022.
- Net
revenues for the non-life insurance business (formerly categorized
as “property and casualty insurance business”) were
RMB40.3 million (US$5.5 million) for the third quarter of 2023,
representing a decrease of 4.3% from RMB42.1 million for the
corresponding period in 2022. Net revenues generated from the
non-life insurance business accounted for 6.4% of our total net
revenues in the third quarter of 2023, as compared to 6.8% in the
same period of 2022.
-
Net revenues for the claims adjusting business
were RMB110.5 million (US$15.1 million) for the third quarter of
2023, representing an increase of 8.3% from RMB102.0 million for
the corresponding period in 2022. The increase was mainly due to
business recovery after the pandemic. Net revenues generated from
the claims adjusting business accounted for 17.4% of our total net
revenues in the third quarter of 2023, as compared to 16.3% in the
same period of 2022.
Gross profit
Total gross profit was RMB235.2
million (US$32.2 million) for the third quarter of 2023,
representing an increase of 1.7% from RMB231.3 for the
corresponding period in 2022. By product line, the results
were:
-
Life insurance business recorded a gross profit of
RMB182.0 million (US$24.9 million), as compared with RMB181.7
million for the third quarter of 2022. Gross margin for the period
was 37.6%, as compared with 37.8% in the same period of 2022.
-
Non-life insurance business recorded a gross
profit of RMB12.8 million (US$1.8 million), representing a decrease
of 23.8% from RMB16.8 million for the third quarter of 2022. Gross
margin for the period was 31.8%, as compared with 40.0% in the same
period of 2022. The decrease in gross margin was mainly due to
changes in product mix.
-
Claims adjusting business recorded a gross profit
of RMB 40.4million (US$5.5 million), representing an increase of
23.2% from RMB32.8 million for the third quarter of 2022. Gross
margin for the period was 36.6%, as compared with 32.1% in the same
period of 2022.
Operating expenses
Selling expenses were RMB59.2
million (US$8.1 million) for the third quarter of 2023,
representing a decrease of 14.6% from RMB69.3 million for the
corresponding period in 2022. The decrease was due to expenses
savings from personnel optimization and decreased number of sales
outlets, partially offset by the increase in sales training events
and the recognition of RMB5.0 million (US$0.7 million) share-based
compensation expenses related to shares options granted to
Million-Dollar Roundtable Members, or MDRT, under the Company’s
MDRT ("Million-Dollar Roundtable Members") Share Incentive Plan in
the first quarter of 2023.
General and administrative
expenses were RMB142.9 million (US$19.6 million) for the
third quarter of 2023, representing an increase of 10.1% from
RMB129.8 million for the corresponding period in 2022. The increase
was mainly due to the expenses incurred by the acquired business
which was consolidated since the first quarter of 2023 amounting to
approximately RMB19.6 million (US$2.7million), partially offset by
cost savings from personnel optimization and decrease in the number
of branches since 2022.
As a result of the foregoing factors, we
recorded operating income of RMB33.2 million
(US$4.5 million) for the third quarter of 2023, representing an
increase of 3.2% from RMB32.2 million for the corresponding period
in 2022.
Operating margin was 5.2% for
the third quarter of 2023, compared to 5.1% for the corresponding
period in 2022.
Fair value change in an equity
investment represents an unrealized holding gain of
RMB164.3 million (US$22.5 million) in the third quarter of 2023,
which was recognized based on the fair value of Cheche in which the
Company owns 2.8% equity interests, following its listing in
September 2023.
Investment income was RMB1.9
million (US$0.3 million) for the third quarter of 2023, as compared
with RMB2.8 million for the corresponding period in 2022. The
investment income in the third quarter of 2023 consisted of yields
from short-term investments in financial products and is recognized
when the investment matures or is disposed of.
Income tax expense was RMB16.1
million (US$2.2 million) for the third quarter of 2023,
representing an increase of 87.2% from RMB8.6 million for the
corresponding period in 2022. The effective tax rate for the third
quarter of 2023 was 9.1% compared with 20.2% for the corresponding
period in 2022. The decrease of effective tax rate is mainly due to
the recognition of a nontaxable unrealized holding gain of equity
interest amounting to RMB164.3 million (US$22.5 million) in the
third quarter of 2023.
Net income was RMB160.8 million
(US$22.0 million) for the third quarter of 2023, representing an
increase of 384.3% from RMB33.2 million for the corresponding
period in 2022.
Net income attributable to the Company’s
shareholders was RMB170.7million (US$23.4 million) for the
third quarter of 2023, representing an increase of 382.6% from
RMB35.4 million for the corresponding period in 2022.
Net margin was 26.9% for the
third quarter of 2023, as compared to 5.7% for the corresponding
period in 2022.
Adjusted
EBITDA2 was RMB24.9 million (US$3.4
million) for the third quarter of 2023, representing an decrease of
32.0% as compared to RMB36.6 million for the corresponding period
in 2022. The decrease was mainly due to a provision of expected
credit loss on other receivables amounting to RMB18.5 million
(US$2.5 million) for the third quarter of 2023.
Adjusted EBITDA margin3 was
3.9% for the third quarter of 2023, as compared to 5.9% for the
corresponding period in 2022.
Basic and diluted net income per
ADS were RMB3.18 (US$0.44) and RMB3.18 (US$0.44) for the
third quarter of 2023, respectively, representing an increase of
381.8% and 381.8% from RMB0.66 and RMB0.66 for the corresponding
period in 2022, respectively.
Basic4
and diluted5 adjusted
EBITDA per ADS were RMB0.46 (US$0.06) and RMB0.46
(US$0.06) for the third quarter of 2023, representing a decrease of
32.4% and 32.4% from RMB0.68 and RMB0.68 for the corresponding
period in 2022, respectively.
As of September 30, 2023, the Company had
RMB1,498.4 million (US$205.4 million) in cash,
cash equivalents and short-term
investments.
FANHUA’s Insurance Sales and Service
Distribution Network:

September 30, 2023, excluding newly acquired entities, FANHUA’s
distribution network consisted of 592 sales outlets in 23 provinces
and 81 services outlets in 31 provinces as of September 30, 2023,
compared with 697 sales outlets in 23 provinces and 100 services
outlets in 31 provinces as of September 30, 2022. The decrease in
the number of sales outlets reflected our focus on growing
profitable branches, coupled with the challenging decisions to
close those which were not yielding profits. The number of the
Company's in-house claims adjustors was 2,215 as of September 30,
2023, compared with 2,221 as of September 30, 2022.

About Non-GAAP Financial
Measures
In addition to the Company’s consolidated
financial results under generally accepted accounting principles in
the United States (“GAAP”), the Company also provides adjusted
EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and basic and diluted adjusted
EBITDA per ADS, all of which are non-GAAP financial measures, as
supplemental measures to review and assess operating performance.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income before income tax expense,
share of income of affiliates, net of impairment, investment
income, interest income, financial cost, depreciation, amortization
of intangible assets, share-based compensation expenses and fair
value change in an equity investment. Adjusted EBITDA margin is
defined as adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net revenues. Basic
adjusted EBITDA per ADS is defined as adjusted EBITDA divided by
total weighted average number of ADSs of the Company outstanding
during the period. Diluted adjusted EBITDA per ADS is defined as
adjusted EBITDA divided by total weighted average number of diluted
ADSs of the Company outstanding during the period. The Company
believes that both management and investors benefit from referring
to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing the Company’s
performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. The
Company’s non-GAAP financial measures do not reflect all items of
income and expenses that affect the Company’s operations.
Specifically, the Company’s non-GAAP measures exclude interest
income, investment income, financial cost, income tax expense,
depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, share of income of
affiliates, net of impairment, share-based compensation expenses
and fair value change in an equity investment. Further, these
non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly
titled measures presented by other companies, including peer
companies. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures
has limitations as analytical tools, and investors should not
consider them in isolation from, or as a substitute for analysis
of, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance
with GAAP. We encourage investors and other interested persons to
review our financial information in its entirety and not rely on a
single financial measure.
For more information on these non-GAAP financial
measures, please see the tables captioned “Reconciliations of Net
Income to Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin” set forth at
the end of this press release.
