Transaction volume was stable overall at RMB 42.6 billion. Key developments: (1) China: early signs of recovery — China origination volumes were broadly flat sequentially (RMB 38.5bn), vintage and Day‑1 delinquency improved, collection rates ticked up, and the company is cautiously re-engaging growth while monitoring regulatory uncertainty. (2) Overseas: disclosed as a separate reportable segment for the first time — overseas revenue was RMB 949 million (up 35% YoY) and segment operating profit rose 88% YoY; overseas now represents ~30% of group revenue and is described as a second profitable growth engine (Indonesia, Philippines, Australia). (3) Technology & AI: management highlighted material operating leverage from multi-year tech/AI investments (AI collection agents handling ~50% of early-stage collections, ~120 active AI initiatives, proprietary AI infrastructure). (4) Regulation & compliance: new online marketing/financial product rules are expected to tighten marketing and channel flows; management views this as a medium/long-term positive given the firm's compliance posture. (5) Capital returns and funding: Board approved an additional USD 150 million buyback program, the company continues share repurchases (USD 54 million deployed YTD) and approved an increased annual dividend (USD 0.306 per ADS). (6) Guidance & outlook: FY2026 revenue guidance reiterated at RMB 11.5–12.9 billion; target to reach 15% of group revenue from overseas by 2030 and long-term ambition of substantial overseas contribution. Overall message: stabilized domestic performance, accelerating and profitable international expansion, tech-driven efficiency, disciplined capital returns, and cautious but constructive posture toward regulatory change.
