SECOND QUARTER 2022 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

  • Net revenues for the second quarter of 2022 were RMB738.1 million (US$110.2 million), a 17.9% decrease from the corresponding period in 2021, mainly due to decreases in one-time commissions, and performance-based incomes. Net revenues decreased by 7.2% compared with the first quarter of 2022, mainly due to decreases in performance based income amid market volatilities and partially offset by more than doubled one-time commissions.

Ms. Jingbo Wang, co-founder and CEO of Noah, said, “I am glad that Noah Holdings’ secondary listing in Hong Kong has been successfully completed, partially mitigating the ADR delisting risk. The Board has approved a motion to pursue the voluntary conversion to dual-primary listing in Hong Kong, and we hope to deliver good news on the matter in the coming quarters. The Board also approved and adopted a new dividend policy in August 2022, to share a part of our non-GAAP net income attributable to Noah shareholders every year with the shareholders, which is a commitment we will try our best to fulfill. In the second quarter of 2022, our non-GAAP net income grew 13.3% quarter-on-quarter and 5.4% year-on-year, and the transaction value of private equity and mutual funds grew 23.2% and 71.4% quarter-on-quarter respectively, representing an expected recovery from the last quarter, while we continued to see volatilities in the market pressuring the distribution of private secondary products. I am happy to see the number of our core clients, diamond and black card, continued to grow at 6.1% and 20.5% year-on-year respectively amid complicated market environment. We expect to see continued challenges from China’s prolonged COVID-19 control measures and the slower growth of economy, and reiterate the importance of our recommended asset allocation strategy “Protection over Growth”, and further suggest our clients to rebalance their global assets to achieve a domestic and international ‘dual circulation’ model.” 

SECOND QUARTER 2022 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Net Revenues

Net revenues for the second quarter of 2022 were RMB738.1 million (US$110.2 million), a 17.9% decrease from the corresponding period in 2021, primarily driven by decreased one-time commissions and performance based income, partially offset by increased other service fees.

  • Net revenues from performance-based income for the second quarter of 2022 were RMB13.2 million (US$2.0 million), a 76.2% decrease from the corresponding period of 2021, primarily due to less performance-based income from public securities products.

  • Net revenues from recurring service fees for the second quarter of 2022 were RMB168.5 million (US$25.2 million), a 6.3% increase from the corresponding period in 2021, due to an increase in the amount of private equity products managed by Gopher.
  • Net revenues from performance-based income for the second quarter of 2022 were RMB12.6 million (US$1.9 million), an 81.0% decrease year-on-year, primarily due to a decrease in performance-based income from real estate products and offshore private equity products compared with the second quarter of 2021.

DISCUSSION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES        

In addition to disclosing financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company’s earnings release contains non-GAAP financial measures excluding the effects of all forms of share-based compensation, share-based settlement expenses and net of tax impact, if any. See “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Results” at the end of this press release.

The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The financial results reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP and reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results should be carefully evaluated. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be prepared differently from and, therefore, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

When evaluating the Company’s operating performance in the periods presented, management reviewed the foregoing non-GAAP net income attributable to Noah shareholders and per diluted ADS and non-GAAP net margin attributable to Noah shareholders to supplement U.S. GAAP financial data. As such, the Company’s management believes that the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures provides important supplemental information to investors regarding financial and business trends relating to its results of operations in a manner consistent with that used by management.
