Loan quality trended higher within both segments, demonstrating the efficacy of our strategic approach. As our Puhui loan balance increasingly represents loans enabled under the 100% guarantee model, we anticipate the ongoing shift will drive further enhancements to our take rate going forward. Furthermore, as we continue to execute our strategy of obtaining and utilizing strong licenses to bolster our business, we expect our licenses will help us improve our funding costs, product diversity, and capital management efficiency. Looking ahead, we will seek to deepen our synergies with Ping An Group, leveraging their brand reputation, technological resources, and extensive network to strengthen our market position. These initiatives, combined with our direct sales force and ongoing emphasis on operational caution, uniquely position us to support China’s small and micro enterprise economy. We are encouraged by our progress to date, and remain committed to drive persistent, high-quality growth for our customers and our shareholders.”

Mr. Gregory Gibb, Co-Chief Executive Officer of Lufax, commented, “Our ongoing emphasis on operational refinements helped us strengthen our business during the second quarter. Our disciplined approach to credit standards led to enhancements in asset quality, with the C-M3 flow rate of Puhui loans improving to 0.9% and the NPL ratio for consumer finance loans decreasing to 1.4%. Meanwhile, the implementation of our 100% guarantee model for Puhui loans has positively impacted the take rate on our outstanding balance, which reached 9.3% this quarter. Our consumer finance segment also continued to grow, with a 23.6% year-over-year increase in new loan sales, representing 49% of total new loan sales in the quarter. Our prudent approach and ongoing operational refinements will be key as we pursue sustainable future growth.”

Mr. Alston Peiqing Zhu, Chief Financial Officer of Lufax, commented, “During the second quarter, our leverage remained low, and our two main operating entities have maintained their strong capital positions. Our guarantee subsidiary’s leverage ratio is stable at 2.4x, still comfortably below the 10x regulatory limit. At the same time, our consumer finance company has a healthy 14.7% capital adequacy ratio, surpassing the 10.5% regulatory requirement. Amidst a complex economic environment, we are seeing positive trends in asset quality and notable growth in consumer finance. We remain steadfast in our disciplined approach, aiming to construct a resilient platform for enduring success and shareholder value creation.”

Technology platform-based income was RMB1,999 million (US$275 million) in the second quarter of 2024, compared to RMB4,076 million in the same period of 2023, representing a decrease of 51.0%, due to 1) the decrease of retail credit service fees due to the decrease in loan balance and 2) the decrease of referral and other technology platform-based income due to the Company’s exit from the Lujintong[6] business that it had previously conducted.Net interest income was RMB2,716 million (US$374 million) in the second quarter of 2024, compared to RMB3,367 million in the same period of 2023, representing a decrease of 19.3%, mainly due to the decrease in loan balance, partially offset by the increase of net interest income from the Company’s consumer finance business.Guarantee income was RMB850 million (US$117 million) in the second quarter of 2024, compared to RMB1,149 million in the same period of 2023, representing a decrease of 26.0%, primarily due to the decrease in loan balance and a lower average fee rate.Other income was RMB318 million (US$44 million) in the second quarter of 2024, compared to other income of RMB310 million in the same period of 2023. The increase was mainly due to the increased account management fees driven by improved collection performance.Investment income was RMB94 million (US$13 million) in the second quarter of 2024, compared to RMB370 million in the same period of 2023, mainly due to the increased losses associated with certain investment assets.

—————————

[1] The take rate of retail credit enablement business is calculated by dividing the aggregated amount of loan enablement service fees, post-origination service fees, net interest income (excluding revenue from PAObank and LUAN credit subsidiaries), guarantee income and the penalty fees and account management fees by the average outstanding balance of loans enabled for each period.

[2] C-M3 flow rate estimates the percentage of current loans that will become non-performing at the end of three months, and is defined as the product of (i) the loan balance that is overdue from 1 to 29 days as a percentage of the total current loan balance of the previous month, (ii) the loan balance that is overdue from 30 to 59 days as a percentage of the loan balance that was overdue from 1 to 29 days in the previous month, and (iii) the loan balance that is overdue from 60 to 89 days as a percentage of the loan balance that was overdue from 30 days to 59 days in the previous month. Loans from legacy products and consumer finance subsidiary are excluded from the flow rate calculation.

[3] DPD 30+ delinquency rate refers to the outstanding balance of loans for which any payment is 30 to 179 calendar days past due divided by the outstanding balance of loans. Loans from legacy products and consumer finance subsidiary are excluded from the calculation.

[4] DPD 90+ delinquency rate refers to the outstanding balance of loans for which any payment is 90 to 179 calendar days past due divided by the outstanding balance of loans. Loans from legacy products and consumer finance subsidiary are excluded from the calculation.

[5] Non-performing loan ratio for consumer finance loans is calculated by using the outstanding balance of consumer finance loans for which any payment is 91 or more calendar days past due and not written off, and certain restructured loans, divided by the outstanding balance of consumer finance loans.

[6] Lujintong was a platform the company launched in 2019, aiming to help its financial institution partners to acquire borrowers directly through dispersed sourcing nationwide. The company downscaled the operations of Lujintong in 2023 and ceased its operation by the end of April 2024.

TOTAL EXPENSES

Total expenses decreased by 20% to RMB6,341 million (US$873 million) in the second quarter of 2024 from RMB7,957 million in the same period of 2023. This decrease was mainly due to the decrease in sales and marketing expenses by 46% to RMB1,372 million (US$189 million) in the second quarter of 2024 from RMB2,540 million in the same period of 2023. Total expenses excluding credit impairment losses, finance costs and other (gains)/losses decreased by 30% to RMB3,485 million (US$480 million) in the second quarter of 2024 from RMB4,954 million in the same period of 2023.

Sales and marketing expenses decreased by 46.0% to RMB1,372 million (US$189 million) in the second quarter of 2024 from RMB2,540 million in the same period of 2023. The decrease was mainly due to 1) the decreased loan-related expenses as a result of the decrease in loan balance and 2) decreased retention expenses and referral expenses from platform service attributable to the Company’s exit from the Lujintong business that it had previously conducted.General and administrative expenses increased by 3.5% to RMB511 million (US$70 million) in the second quarter of 2024 from RMB493 million in the same period of 2023, mainly due to the increased investment in newly acquired businesses.Operation and servicing expenses decreased by 15.8% to RMB1,327 million (US$183 million) in the second quarter of 2024 from RMB1,576 million in the same period of 2023, due to the Company’s expense control measures and decrease of loan balance, partially offset by increased commission associated with improved collection performance.Technology and analytics expenses decreased by 20.0% to RMB275 million (US$38 million) in the second quarter of 2024 from RMB344 million in the same period of 2023, primarily due to the Company’s expense control measures.Credit impairment losses decreased by 14.6% to RMB2,560 million (US$352 million) in the second quarter of 2024 from RMB2,998 million in the same period of 2023, mainly due to the decrease in actual losses of loans as a result of the improvement of credit performance, partially offset by the upfront provision from loans under the 100% guarantee model.Finance costs decreased by 90.2% to RMB13 million (US$2 million) in the second quarter of 2024 from RMB136 million in the same period of 2023, mainly due to the decrease of interest expenses as a result of repayment of C-Round Convertible Promissory Notes and other debts, partially offset by the decrease of interest income from bank deposits.Other losses were RMB282 million (US$39 million) in the second quarter of 2024, compared to other gains of RMB130 million in the same period of 2023, mainly due to the increase of foreign exchange losses and losses associated with certain risk assets.

NET LOSS

Net loss was RMB730 million (US$100 million) in the second quarter of 2024, compared to a net profit of RMB1,004 million in the same period of 2023, as a result of the aforementioned factors.

Docking Drawer to Revolutionize Appliance Garage Safety at KBIS 2025

Published

on

By

Docking Drawer, the leader in in-drawer outlet solutions, is set to showcase its newly configured Safety Interlock Outlets for appliance garages at the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) in Las Vegas this February 2025.

SAN RAMON, Calif., Jan. 11, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Docking Drawer’s Unwavering Dedication to Safety

“At Docking Drawer, we’re not just creating products; we’re setting new standards for safety and functionality.”

When it comes to safety, no one in the industry matches the focus and innovation of Docking Drawer. Their Safety Interlock Outlets for appliance garages bring a unique, forward-thinking solution to an often-overlooked area in kitchen design. These safety outlets automatically de-energize an appliance garage power source when the cabinet door is closed, ensuring that appliances are safely powered off when contained inside the cabinet.

Docking Drawer is also the only company dedicated to creating in-cabinet electrical solutions that meet the strict code requirements of the Canadian marketplace. Their Safety Interlock Outlets are designed to make in-cabinet electricity compliant in Canada while offering consumers in all regions an additional layer of safety for in-cabinet power.

Advanced Limit Switch Technology

Docking Drawer’s Safety Interlock Outlets for appliance garages utilize an advanced Limit Switch system, designed to work seamlessly with power outlets concealed by a cabinet door. This intuitive feature detects when the cabinet door is closed, instantly cutting power to the connected outlet and all powered appliances.

Now Compatible with Any Appliance Garage Door

An updated Limit Switch feature now offers different switch options to accommodate all appliance garage door types, including traditional cabinet doors, pocket door setups, and more. The newly designed Limit Switch now offers two functions to choose from:

Power Off When Limit Switch is Depressed: This state is ideal for traditional cabinet doors, where closing the door depresses the switch to cut power safely.Power On When Limit Switch is Depressed: This state is perfect for pocket doors, where the door being pushed back upon opening activates the switch, turning the power on.

Customizable Connectivity

The flexibility of Docking Drawer’s solutions also allows for connecting multiple limit switches to a single safety outlet or vice versa, offering customization options to adapt to the unique demands of any project.

“At Docking Drawer, we’re not just creating products; we’re setting new standards for safety and functionality,” states Scott Dickey, founder of Docking Drawer. “Our Safety Interlock Outlets represent the culmination of our dedication to innovation and empowering homeowners and professionals with safer, more organized spaces—even beyond the kitchen and bathroom.”

Join Us at KBIS 2025

Don’t miss the opportunity to experience the future of kitchen safety. Visit Docking Drawer at KBIS 2025 in Las Vegas this February to see firsthand how their Safety Interlock Outlets are revolutionizing appliance garage safety.

About Docking Drawer:

Founded in 2014, Docking Drawer offers a full array of ETL Listed electrical solutions. From our core in-drawer outlets developed specifically for use inside the drawer to our family of safety interlock outlets which add peace of mind to in-cabinet electrical setups, our products are designed to create more organized, functional and safer spaces.

Development of an International Critical Minerals FrameworkEstablishment of Centers of Excellence to build capacity in sustainability (Morocco), talent development (South Africa), and technology innovation (Saudi Arabia).Advancements in Certification Systems to ensure responsible mineral sourcing.

His Excellency Khalid Al-Mudaifer, the Vice-Minister for Mining Affairs of Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources, emphasizes that, “The meeting is an important step towards achieving sustainable development in the minerals sector globally. It is an ideal platform for delivering solutions, developing legislation on best practices in the field of sustainable mining, and exploring ways to invest in mining projects to achieve economic and social development in producing countries.”

Joining him are high-profile leaders, including ministers from supplier and financing like Brazil, South Africa, DRC, India, Egypt, Italy, Nigeria, Qatar, Pakistan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Malaysia, Thailand, Morocco, Indonesia, France, USA and the United Kingdom, discussing opportunities for global cooperation.

 “This year, discussions will seek to enhance collaboration between governments, industry, and communities to drive more investment in minerals, and development through value addition in supplier countries. We want to support the pressing need for sustainable mining practices, resilient supply chains, and value-driven partnerships in the minerals industry.”

Importantly, the outcomes of the Ministerial Roundtable are not confined to the event itself but form an ongoing, year-round program. Regional Coordination Groups will continue to drive the implementation of key initiatives.

“FMF is emerging as the largest global hub for minerals collaboration and action – no other platform brings together government ministers and senior industry leaders at this scale.” Al-Mudaifer concluded.
