SECOND QUARTER 2017 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Net Revenues

Net revenues for the second quarter of 2017 were RMB707.3 million (US$104.3 million), an 8.5% increase from the corresponding period in 2016, primarily driven by increased recurring service fee revenues.

 

    Wealth Management Business

 

    Net revenues from one-time commissions for the second quarter of 2017 were RMB297.6 million (US$43.9 million), a 2.0% increase from the corresponding period in 2016. The increase was mainly due to the increase in the aggregate value of wealth management products.

 

    Net revenues from recurring service fees for the second quarter of 2017 were RMB209.3 million (US$30.9 million), a 7.5% increase from the corresponding period in 2016. The increase was primarily due to the cumulative effect of wealth management products with recurring service fees previously distributed.

 

    Net revenues from performance-based income for the second quarter of 2017 were RMB22.0 million (US$3.2 million), compared with RMB0.1 million in the corresponding period of 2016, due to the realization of performance-based income from secondary market equity products and private equity products distributed in previous periods.

 

    Net revenues from other service fees for the second quarter of 2017 were RMB21.6 million (US$3.2 million), a 17.4% increase from the corresponding period in 2016, primarily due to the growth of new business within the wealth management segment.

    Net revenues from recurring service fees for the second quarter of 2017 were RMB128.3 million (US$18.9 million), a 17.0% increase from the corresponding period in 2016. The increase was primarily due to the increase in assets under management.

    Net revenues for the second quarter of 2017 were RMB26.4 million (US$3.9 million), a 133.0% increase from the corresponding period in 2016.

Operating costs and expenses include compensation and benefits, selling expenses, general and administrative expenses, other operating expenses and government subsidies. Operating costs and expenses for the second quarter of 2017 were RMB483.1 million (US$71.3 million), a 5.6% increase from the corresponding period in 2016. As the increase in net revenue outpaced the increase in operating costs and expenses year-on-year, the Company’s operating margin improved in the second quarter of 2017 as discussed below.

    General and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2017 were RMB29.9 million (US$4.4 million), a 6.2% decrease from the corresponding period in 2016, primarily due to the reduced loss from fixed asset disposal compared with the same period last year.

 

    Other operating expenses were RMB27.5 million (US$4.1 million) for the second quarter of 2017, an increase of 30.1% from the corresponding period in 2016. The increase was primarily due to the growth of new business within the wealth management segment.

    General and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2017 were RMB11.2 million (US$1.6 million), a 39.1% decrease from the corresponding period in 2016. The decrease was mainly due to certain expenses that were not VAT deductible in the second quarter last year.

Operating Margin

Operating margin for the second quarter of 2017 was 31.7%, an increase from 29.8% for the corresponding period in 2016. The increase was mainly due to improved operating margin for the asset management business and reduced operating loss of the Internet financial service business.

Income Tax Expenses

Income tax expenses for the second quarter of 2017 were RMB60.2 million (US$8.9 million), a 24.3% increase from the corresponding period in 2016. The increase was primarily due to the combined impact of higher taxable income and a higher effective tax rate.

Income from equity in affiliates for the second quarter of 2017 was RMB23.3 million (US$3.4 million), a 154.4% increase from the corresponding period in 2016.

DISCUSSION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In addition to disclosing financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company’s earnings release contains non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the effects of all forms of share-based compensation. The reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest GAAP measures is set forth in the table captioned “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Results” below.

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 measure 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 non-GAAP net income attributable to Noah shareholders results reflecting adjustments to exclude the impact of share-based compensation to supplement U.S. GAAP financial data. As such, the Company believes that the presentation of the non-GAAP net income attributable to Noah shareholders, non-GAAP net income attributable to Noah shareholders per diluted ADS and non-GAAP net margin attributable to Noah shareholders provides important supplemental information to investors regarding financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations in a manner consistent with that used by management. Pursuant to U.S. GAAP, the Company recognized significant amounts of expenses for the restricted shares and share options in the periods presented. The Company utilized the non-GAAP financial results to make financial results comparable period to period and to better understand its historical business operations.
