Yuxuan Chen's questions to Jiayin Group Inc (JFIN) leadership • Q1 2025
Question
Yuxuan Chen from Huatai Securities asked about the primary drivers behind the significant 97.5% year-over-year increase in net profit for the quarter and the company's profitability outlook. He also sought clarification on the company's view of new loan facilitation guidelines from Chinese regulators and their expected business impact.
Answer
Sam Lee, Head of Investor Relations, attributed the profit surge to three factors: a 58.2% increase in loan facilitation volume creating economies of scale, an optimized revenue mix favoring higher-margin facilitation services over guarantees, and improved operational efficiency from AI investments. Yifang Xu, Chief Risk Officer, added that the new regulations are viewed positively as they formalize the industry, and the company is adapting its products to meet all requirements ahead of the deadline.
