The Group charges off loans principal, interest and financing service fee receivables if the remaining balance is considered uncollectable. Recovery of loans principal, interest and financing service fee receivables previously charged off would be recorded when received.

All amounts due according to the contractual terms means that both the contractual interest payments and the contractual principal payments of a loan will be collected as scheduled in the loan agreement. Impaired loans without an allowance generally represent loans that the fair value of the underlying collateral meets or exceeds the loan’s amortized cost.

(ii) The interest and fees income recognized are those interest and financing service fees recognized related to impaired loans. All the amounts are recognized on cash basis. No debt restructuring in which contractual terms of loans are modified, has occurred during the period from January 1 to September 30, 2021 and 2022. The Group transferred loans with carrying amounts of RMB939,112,508 and RMB1,896,205,225 to third party investors, including sales partners, and recorded the transfers as sales for the period from January 1 to September 30, 2021 and 2022, respectively. The Group recognized net gain of RMB17,878,084 and RMB51,040,366 from transfers accounted for as sales of loans for the period from January 1 to September 30, 2021 and 2022, respectively. The Group carries out pre-approval, review and credit approval of loans by professionals for credit risk arising from micro credit business. During the post-transaction monitoring process, the Group conducts a visit of customers regularly after disbursement of loans, and conducts on-site inspection when the Group considers it is necessary. The review focuses on the status of the collateral. The Group delegates sales partners to assist in the aforementioned credit risk assessment activities. The Group adopts a loan risk classification approach to manage the loan portfolio risk. Loans are classified as non-impaired and impaired based on the different risk level. When one or more event demonstrates there is objective evidence of impairment and causes losses, corresponding loans are considered to be classified as impaired. The allowance for credit losses on impaired loans are determined with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model. The Group applies a series of criteria in determining the classification of loans. The loan classification criteria focus on a number of factors, including (i) the borrower’s ability to repay the loan; (ii) the borrower’s repayment history; (iii) the borrower’s willingness to repay; (iv) the net realizable value of any collateral; and (v) the prospect for the support from any financially responsible guarantor. The Group also takes into account the length of time for which payments of principal and interest on a loan are overdue. (d) Loans held-for-sale Loans held-for-sale are measured at the lower of cost or fair value, with valuation changes recorded in noninterest revenue. The valuation is performed on an individual loan basis. Loans transferred to held-for-sale category were RMB733,975,352 (including RMB24,696,075 measured at fair value) and RMB1,016,173,196 (including RMB11,694,198 measured at fair value) as of December 31, 2021 and September 30, 2022, respectively. (ii) Corporate loan Corporate loan represents loans granted to businesses to assist its funding of operating costs and capital expenditures, which are not collateralized. Net loans principal, interest and financing service fee receivables of corporate loan were nil |
