Commenting on the financial results of the third quarter of 2019, Mr. Chunlin Wang, chairman and chief executive officer of Fanhua, stated, “Amid the ongoing US-China trade war, there has been no sign of relaxation in regulatory supervision in China’s financial market. Industry-wide transformation and adjustment persist in the life insurance market as it witnessed a continuous quarter-by-quarter slowdown in growth over the past nine months of 2019. Negative growth is expected in new premiums for regular individual life insurance business in the industry for the full year of 2019. If the trade war drags on and the regulatory environment remains tightened, we expect that the life insurance industry may remain under huge pressure to deliver growth in 2020, due to the following factors: 1) lack of product innovation; 2) lower buying desire as more consumers choose to stay on the sidelines in view of market uncertainty; and 3) increasing difficulty in recruiting and retaining sales agents across the industry.
“Although this industry-wide adjustment period may continue for a while, we firmly believe that such adjustment is temporary since the key forces that drive industry growth, such as consumer buying power and increasing demand for insurance products, have not changed fundamentally and the trend of the industry’s spiral growth is irreversible. We are convinced that through continuous regulatory overhaul, the industry will transition to a period of more healthy, sustainable and rapid development in the medium-to-long term.
“Fanhua delivered solid results in the third quarter of 2019, with total life insurance premiums increasing by 42.0% year-over-year to RMB2.1 billion, significantly outpacing industry growth. During this quarter, first year regular premiums increased by 34.5% year-over-year to RMB683.6 million, and annualized premiums equivalent (“APE”) increased by 6.2% year-over-year to RMB419.1 million, while renewal premiums grew by 46.0% year-over-year to RMB1.4 billion. Operating income was RMB151.4 million in the third quarter of 2019, representing a growth of 21.6% year-over-year. Non-GAAP operating income achieved RMB111.6 million, which was in-line with our previous guidance. The decrease in non-GAAP operating income during this quarter was mainly due to a comparison with a high base in the third quarter of 2018 resulting from a one-off performance bonus income of approximately RMB38.0 million recognized in the third quarter of 2018.
“During the third quarter of 2019, we have achieved remarkable results in implementing our campaign to introduce at least one thousand reserve entrepreneurial sales teams by the end of March 2020, or the 1000 Reserve Entrepreneurial Sales Team Campaign. As of September 30, 2019, Fanhua has introduced over 600 new reserve entrepreneurial sales teams, which we believe will start to make positive contributions to our business growth in 2020. Meanwhile, we’ve steadily and vigorously rolled out our Shenzhou 100 strategy nationwide, which is our plan to expand our market presence in large and medium-sized cities in China by establishing more provincial branches within the next five years. We believe our Shenzhou 100 strategy will lay a solid foundation for our growth in the years to come.
“For the coming quarters, we will continue to focus on executing the Shenzhou 100 strategy and the 1000 Reserve Entrepreneurial Sales Teams Campaign, through which we aim to further strengthen our sales force by attracting elite sales and managerial talents, and further tap into the market potential in large and medium-sized cities in China, capitalizing on the favorable opportunities presented by the accelerated separation of insurance underwriting and distribution. We believe these initiatives will position the Company well to embrace the next round of explosive growth in China’s insurance industry over the long run.”
Share Repurchase Program
From March 13, 2019 to November 19, 2019, the Company has purchased an aggregate of 2,511,191 ADSs, at an average price of approximately US$28.2 per ADS for a total amount of approximately US$70.9 million, under its share buyback program to repurchase up to US$200 million ADSs by December 31, 2019, as previously announced by its board of directors in March 2019.
Pursuant to its share buyback programs carried out in both 2018 and 2019, a total of 3,934,965 ADSs have been repurchased at an average price of approximately US$27.3 per ADS for a total amount of approximately US$107.3 million, as of November 19, 2019.
Financial Results for the third quarter of 2019
Total net revenues were RMB823.4 million (US$115.2 million) for the third quarter of 2019, representing an increase of 5.0% from RMB783.9 million for the corresponding period in 2018.
Total operating costs and expenses were RMB671.9 million (US$94.0 million) for the third quarter of 2019, representing an increase of 1.9% from RMB659.4 million for the corresponding period in 2018.
As a result of the preceding factors, we had an operating income of RMB151.4 million (US$21.2 million) for the third quarter of 2019, representing an increase of 21.6% from RMB124.6 million for the corresponding period in 2018.
Non-GAAP operating income2 which excluded share-based compensation expenses was RMB111.6 million (US$15.6 million) for the third quarter of 2019, representing a decrease of 10.4% from RMB124.6 million for the corresponding period in 2018, which has a higher comparable base due to a non-routine performance bonus award of approximately RMB38.0 million.
Operating margin was 18.4% for the third quarter of 2019, compared to 15.9% for the corresponding period in 2018.
Non-GAAP operating margin5 was 13.6% for the third quarter of 2019, compared to 15.9% for the corresponding period in 2018.
Investment income was RMB16.8 million (US$2.3 million) for the third quarter of 2019, representing a decrease of 77.7% from RMB75.5 million for the corresponding period in 2018. The investment income in the third quarter of 2019 represented yields from short-term investments in financial products. The decrease in yields from short-term investments in financial products was mainly due to i) change in composition of our short term investment portfolio, with increased allocation to wealth management products issued by banks which have relatively lower yields as compared to other financial products in the portfolio; ii) year-over-year decrease in yields from wealth management products issued by banks; and iii) a decrease in cash available for investment in short-term investments due to the share buyback program, declaration of cash dividends and the implementation of the Company’s 521 Plan since the second half of 2018. Our investment income fluctuates from quarter to quarter because investment income is recognized when realized.Interest income was RMB0.6 million (US$0.1 million) for the third quarter of 2019, representing a decrease of 95.6% from RMB13.5 million for the corresponding period in 2018. The interest income in the third quarter of 2019 represented solely interest income from bank deposits while the interest income in the third quarter of 2018 was mainly contributed by a one-year loan to a third party, which was fully settled in August 2018.
Income tax expense was RMB30.2 million (US$4.2 million) for the third quarter of 2019, representing a decrease of 54.5% from RMB66.4 million for the corresponding period in 2018. The decrease in income tax expense was mainly due to i) the decrease in investment income; and ii) the tax holiday enjoyed by Fanhua Lianxing Insurance Sales Service Co., Ltd., our wholly-owned subsidiary which is the holding company of our life insurance operation, starting from the fourth quarter of 2018. The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2019 was 18.0% as compared with 30.9% for the corresponding period in 2018. The decrease in effective tax rate was mainly due to the fair value adjustments to our share-based compensation expenses which are non-tax deductible.
Share of income of affiliates was RMB32.6 million (US$4.6 million) for the third quarter of 2019, representing a decrease of 32.5% from RMB48.3 million for the corresponding period in 2018, mainly attributable to a decrease of profits from CNFinance Holdings Limited ("CNFinance") due to the change of its business model. CNFinance started to develop a new collaboration model in the first quarter of 2019.
Net income was RMB170.2 million (US$23.8 million) for the third quarter of 2019, representing a decrease of 13.4% from RMB196.6 million for the corresponding period in 2018.
Net income attributable to the Company’s shareholders was RMB168.3 million (US$23.6 million) for the third quarter of 2019, representing a decrease of 13.8% from RMB195.2 million for the corresponding period in 2018.
Non-GAAP net income attributable to the Company’s shareholders3 was RMB128.5 million (US$18.0 million) for the third quarter of 2019, representing a decrease of 34.2% from RMB195.2 million for the corresponding period in 2018. The decrease was mainly due to the decreases in investment income and share of income from affiliates.
Net margin was 20.4% for the third quarter of 2019 compared with 24.9% for the corresponding period in 2018.
Non-GAAP net margin6 was 15.6% for the third quarter of 2019 compared with 24.9% for the corresponding period in 2018.
Basic and diluted net income per ADS were RMB3.12 (US$0.44) and RMB3.12 (US$0.44) for the third quarter of 2019, respectively, representing increases of 3.7% and 4.0% from RMB3.01 and RMB3.00 for the corresponding period in 2018.
Non-GAAP basic7 and diluted net income per ADS4 were RMB2.39 (US$0.33) and RMB2.38 (US$0.33) for the third quarter of 2019, respectively, representing decreases of 20.6% and 20.7% from RMB3.01 and RMB3.00 for the corresponding period in 2018.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the Company’s consolidated financial results under GAAP, the Company also provides Non-GAAP operating income, Non-GAAP operating margin, Non-GAAP net income attributable to the Company’s shareholders, Non-GAAP net margin and Non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per ADS, all of which are non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP operating income is defined as operating income before share-based compensation expenses which are solely associated with the Company’s 521 Plan. Non-GAAP operating margin is a non-GAAP measure that is defined as Non-GAAP operating income as a percentage of net revenue. Non-GAAP net income attributable to the Company’s shareholders is defined as net income attributable to the Company’s shareholders before share-based compensation expenses which are solely associated with the Company’s 521 Plan. Non-GAAP net margin is a non-GAAP measure that is defined as Non-GAAP net income attributable to the Company's shareholders3 as a percentage of net revenue. Non-GAAP basic net income per ADS is a non-GAAP measure and is defined as net income attributable to the Company’s shareholders before share-based compensation expenses which are solely associated with the Company’s 521 Plan divided by total weighted average number of ADS outstanding of the Company during the period. Non-GAAP diluted net income per ADS is defined as net income attributable to the Company’s shareholders before share-based compensation expenses which are solely associated with the Company’s 521 Plan divided by total weighted average number of diluted ADS outstanding of the Company 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. One limitation of using these non-GAAP financial measures is that such measures exclude items that were significant in the third quarter of 2019, and these items have been, and will continue to be, significant recurring factors in our business.
In light of these limitations, the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for 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 GAAP Financial Measures to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” set forth at the end of this release.

12 | In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)" and associated ASUs related to Topic 842, which requires organizations to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for the rights and obligations created by those leases. On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted Topic 842, using the modified retrospective transition approach, applying the new standard to leases existing at the date of initial adoption, and prior periods were not restated. In addition, the Company elected to apply the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance which does not require reassessment of prior conclusions, lease classification and initial direct lease costs. Adoption of the new standard resulted in the recording of lease assets and liabilities of RMB182 million and RMB181 million respectively on January 1, 2019. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated statements of income and consolidated statements of cash flows. |
