Although our growth was hindered in the fourth quarter, which was one of the toughest quarters in the last few years, we recorded solid revenue growth of 22.9% on a full year basis. These defiant results were primarily driven by our preemptive measures to shore up our businesses and enhance our market leading position. We continued to differentiate ourselves by leveraging our unique asset-light platform model in the marketplace and consequently achieved both growth and efficiency gain on a full-year basis."
"We remain committed to our vision of 'Becoming everyone's financial partner' and empowering the digital transformation of financial industry, as well as other adjacent categories. Despite some uncertainties at this early stage of China's reopening, we are more optimistic about our performance in the longer term. The improving economic conditions, alongside disruptive trends in artificial intelligence such as ChatGPT, should open up new opportunities to facilitate the digital transformation of the economy and benefit inclusive finance for small and micro enterprises. We believe our industry-leading position, advanced technology, and sound execution should generate sustainable value creation for our shareholders," concluded Mr. Ye.
"Our overall 2022 results highlight our relentless efforts to maintain a balanced and diversified revenue structure, improve operating efficiency and execute disciplined cost optimization measures. In 2022, revenues from recommendation services increased by 27.2%, while revenues from our new business initiatives, i.e. marketing and other services, were up 62.0%. Our ROI[3] improved by 9 percentage points in the full year of 2022.

Subsequent Events
Deposits with Silicon Valley Bank
The Company is aware that Silicon Valley Bank ("SVB") was closed on March 10, 2023 by the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation, which appointed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") as receiver. To protect insured depositors, the FDIC created the Deposit Insurance National Bank of Santa Clara.

On March 12, 2023, the FDIC, Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the Department of the Treasury of the United States issued a joint statement addressing the failure of SVB. The joint statement indicates that the FDIC will provide direct protection of 100% of the deposits that depositors held at SVB, including the uninsured amounts, and that depositors will have access to all of their funds as of March 13, 2023.

There is no disruption to the normal business operation of the Company.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company uses adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net (loss)/income, each a Non-GAAP financial measure, in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes.
The Company believes that adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net (loss)/income help identify underlying trends in its business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of the expenses and gains that the Company include in (loss)/income from operations and net (loss)/income. The Company believes that adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net (loss)/income provide useful information about its operating results, enhance the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by its management in its financial and operational decision-making.
Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net (loss)/income should not be considered in isolation or construed as alternatives to net (loss)/income or any other measure of performance or as indicators of the Company's operating performance. Investors are encouraged to review the historical Non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net (loss)/income presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures to the Company's data. The Company encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA before share-based compensation expenses, investment impairment loss, impairment of goodwill and intangible assets and investment gain of deconsolidation of subsidiaries. EBITDA represents net (loss)/income before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization.
Adjusted net (loss)/income represents net (loss)/income before share-based compensation expenses, investment impairment loss, impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, investment gain of deconsolidation of subsidiaries and tax effects of above Non-GAAP adjustments.
For more information on this Non-GAAP financial measure, please see the table captioned "Unaudited Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP results" set forth at the end of this press release.
