Mr. David Ye, Co-founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Jianpu, commented, "Through our capital-light platform model and diversified strategy, we registered a solid year-over-year revenue growth of 7.7% while making substantial progress approaching breakeven with a net loss margin of 0.3% in the second quarter of 2023. Despite macro headwinds, our commitment to the digital transformation of financial service providers and ecosystem partners has yielded fruitful results with impressive revenue growth of our loan recommendation services and big data and system-based services."

"Moreover, our relentless focus on enhancing operational efficiency and optimizing cost structures brought us a remarkable ROI[3] improvement. Through seamless integration of AI technologies into our operations, we achieved heightened productivity and substantial cost savings," concluded Mr. Ye.

"Our solid results in the second quarter of 2023 highlight our continued strategic focus on achieving a diversified revenue structure, improving operational efficiency and executing cost optimization initiatives. In the second quarter of 2023, our revenue growth was mainly attributable to the increase in the loan recommendation, the big data and system-based risk management and marketing and other services[1], leading to a more balanced revenue structure. Driven by our improved productivity and continued cost optimization, we trimmed our Non-GAAP adjusted net loss[2]  substantially by 77.3% year-over-year to RMB7.3 million (US$1.0 million) in the second quarter of 2023," said Oscar Chen, Chief Financial Officer of Jianpu.

Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results

Total revenues for the second quarter of 2023 increased by 7.7% to RMB285.5 million (US$39.4 million) from RMB265.1 million in the same period of 2022. The increase was mainly attributable to the increase in revenues from big data and system-based risk management services and revenues from marketing and other services[1], partially offset by the decrease in the total revenues from recommendation services.

Total revenues from recommendation services decreased by 8.9% to RMB186.5 million (US$25.7 million) in the second quarter of 2023 from RMB204.7 million in the same period of 2022.

Revenues from recommendation services for credit cards decreased by 25.7% to RMB102.7 million (US$14.2 million) in the second quarter of 2023 from RMB138.2 million in the same period of 2022. As certain credit card issuers lowered their marketing budget in the second quarter of 2023, credit card volume decreased by 25.0% to approximately 0.9 million in the second quarter of 2023 from 1.2 million in the same period of 2022.

Revenues from recommendation services for loans increased by 26.0% to RMB83.8 million (US$11.6 million) in the second quarter of 2023 from RMB66.5 million in the same period of 2022, primarily due to an increase in the number of loan applications on the Company's platform. The number of loan applications was approximately 5.5 million in the second quarter of 2023, representing a 27.9% increase from that in the same period of 2022.

Cost of promotion and acquisition was RMB190.4 million (US$26.3 million) in the second quarter of 2023, compared with RMB191.8 million in the same period of 2022. The change was primarily due to the decrease in revenues from recommendation services for credit cards, partially offset by the growth of the revenues from marketing and other services.

Cost of operation decreased by 2.0% to RMB20.0 million (US$2.8 million) in the second quarter of 2023 from RMB20.4 million in the same period of 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to the decrease in software development and maintenance costs, partially offset by the increase in data acquisition costs related to the big data and system-based risk management services.

Sales and marketing expenses decreased by 0.9% to RMB 32.9 million (US$4.5 million) in the second quarter of 2023 from RMB33.2 million in the same period of 2022. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in rental expenses and payroll expenses, partially offset by an increase in client service-related expenses.

Research and development expenses decreased by 16.7% to RMB24.4 million (US$3.4 million) in the second quarter of 2023 from RMB29.3 million in the same period of 2022, primarily due to the decrease in payroll expenses resulting from the Company's continued efforts in cost optimization.

General and administrative expenses increased by 8.0% to RMB28.4 million (US$3.9 million) in the second quarter of 2023 from RMB26.3 million in the same period of 2022, primarily due to an increase in allowance for credit losses.

Operating loss margin was 3.7% in the second quarter of 2023, compared with 13.5% in the same period of 2022. The decrease in operating loss was mainly attributable to the increase in revenues and the decrease in operating expenses resulting from efficiency improvement and cost optimization.

Others, net increased by 478.6% to RMB8.1 million (US$1.1 million) in the second quarter of 2023 from RMB1.4 million in the same period of 2022. The Company recognized an investment gain of RMB7.1 million resulting from the deconsolidation of one of its subsidiaries[4] in the second quarter of 2023; while the Company recognized an impairment loss of RMB7.8 million on equity investments and an investment gain of RMB6.1 million resulting from the deconsolidation of another subsidiary[4] in the same period of 2022.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and time deposits of RMB668.5 million (US$92.2 million), and working capital of approximately RMB357.6 million (US$49.3 million).

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 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 and investment gain of deconsolidation of subsidiaries.

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.

[1] Starting from the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company updated the description of its revenue stream "advertising, marketing and other services" to "marketing and other services", to provide more relevant and clear information. It also updated the revenue description in comparative periods to conform to the current classification.

[2] Non-GAAP adjusted net loss represents net loss before share-based compensation expenses, investment impairment loss and investment gain of deconsolidation of subsidiaries. There is no income tax impact of the Non-GAAP adjustment of share-based compensation expenses, investment impairment loss and investment gain of deconsolidation of subsidiaries. See "Unaudited Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results" at the end of this press release for more details about Non-GAAP adjusted net loss. Non-GAAP adjusted net loss margin equals Non-GAAP adjusted net loss divided by total revenues.

[3] ROI represents revenue of recommendation services, marketing and other services divided by cost of promotion and acquisition.

[4] In May 2023, the Group (Jianpu, its subsidiaries, and VIEs together are referred to as the "Group".) entered into a share transfer agreement with the founder and minority shareholder of Newsky Wisdom Treasure (Beijing) Co., Ltd. ("Newsky Wisdom"), which is one of the subsidiaries of the Group before the completion of the share transfer. During the second quarter of 2023, according to the share transfer agreement, the Group transferred 35.5% shares to the founder of Newsky Wisdom and consequently became a minority shareholder of Newsky Wisdom, and the Group no longer has control over Newsky Wisdom. The investment gain of RMB7.1 million was recognized in the second quarter of 2023 accordingly.

In June 2022, Databook Tech Ltd ("Databook"), one of the Company's subsidiaries, made a cash distribution to its shareholders, through which the Company received a portion of the cash distribution. Databook also issued additional shares to one minority shareholder and changed the Company's board seat in Databook to one director. The Company consequently became a minority shareholder of Databook and no longer has control over Databook. The investment gain of RMB6.1 million was realized in the second quarter of 2022, and RMB17.0 million was realized in the fourth quarter of 2022.

[5] Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA before share-based compensation expenses, investment impairment loss and investment gain of deconsolidation of subsidiaries. EBITDA represents net (loss)/income before interest income and expenses, income tax benefits from net loss and depreciation and amortization. See "Unaudited Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results" for more details.
