Business Outlook & Share Repurchase Plans

--  Business Outlook: Based on current trends, X Financial expects the total loan amount facilitated and originated in the third quarter of 2025 to be in the range of RMB32.0 billion to RMB34.0 billion. This represents a deliberate moderation from record Q2 levels, as management places greater emphasis on asset quality and profitability over pure volume growth. The Company remains attentive to challenges and uncertainties from the evolving regulatory environment, while maintaining confidence in resilient borrower demand and disciplined execution.
--  Capital Return to Shareholders: From January 1, 2025 through August 15, 2025, X Financial repurchased an aggregate of approximately 16.7 million Class A ordinary shares, including approximately 2.3 million ADSs, for a total consideration of approximately US$47.7 million under its share repurchase programs. The Company's previous US$50 million repurchase authorization has been fully utilized. The Company now has approximately US$68.2 million remaining under its new US$100 million share repurchase program, which is effective through November 30, 2026. This program underscores the Company's confidence in its long-term growth outlook and its commitment to enhancing shareholder value. Repurchases under the program remain subject to market conditions and other factors and may be modified or suspended at management's discretion.
--  Declaration of Semi-Annual Dividend: Pursuant to the semi-annual dividend policy, the Board today approved the declaration and payment of a semi-annual dividend of US$0.28per ADS (approximately US$0.0467 per ordinary share). The holders of the Company's ordinary shares shown on the Company's record at the close of trading on September 26, 2025 (U.S. Eastern Daylight Time) will be entitled to the semi-annual dividend. These shareholders, including the Bank of New York Mellon, the depositary of our ADS program (the "Depositary"), will receive the payments of dividends on or about October 15, 2025. Dividends to the Company's ADS holders will be paid by the Depositary on or after October 15, 2025, and the precise timing of receipt will vary based on the processing efficiency of the respective holding brokerage.

"We remain committed to disciplined execution and long-term value creation," said Frank Fuya Zhang, Chief Financial Officer. "Our strong Q2 performance, with GAAP earnings of US$1.76 per ADS and non-GAAP earnings of US$1.98 per ADS, together with our solid balance sheet, position us to return capital while investing in sustainable growth."

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In evaluating our business, we consider and use non-GAAP measures as supplemental measures to review and assess our operating performance. We present the non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by our management to evaluate our operating performance and formulate business plans. We believe that the use of the non-GAAP financial measures facilitates investors' assessment of our operating performance and help investors to identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of certain income or expenses that we include in income (loss) from operations and net income (loss). We also believe that the non-GAAP measures provide useful information about our core operating results, enhance the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by our management in its financial and operational decision-making.

We use in this press release the following non-GAAP financial measures: (i) adjusted net income (loss), (ii) adjusted net income (loss) per basic ADS, (iii) adjusted net income (loss) per diluted ADS, (iv) adjusted net income (loss) per basic share, and (v) adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share, each of which excludes share-based compensation expense, impairment losses on financial investments, income (loss) from financial investments, gain (loss) from financial investments at equity method and impairment losses on long-term investments. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and when assessing our operating performance, investors should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

We mitigate these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures, which should be considered when evaluating our performance. We encourage you 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 table captioned "Unaudited Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP results" set forth at the end of this press release.

 [1] The Company has revised the presentation of the gain (loss) from financial investments at equity method after income tax expense, which previously reported as "Income (loss) from financial investments" before income tax expense. Additionally, "Impairment losses on long-term investments" accounted under the equity method have been reclassified into the gain (loss) from equity in affiliates after income tax expense.
  This change in presentation does not affect the net income for any periods presented.
