Mr. Yinan Hu, chairman and chief executive officer of Fanhua, commented on the financial results of third quarter of 2022, "Despite macroeconomic and industry headwinds, Fanhua maintained steady growth in the third quarter of 2022, reflecting continued resilience in our business. Gross written premiums ("GWP") of our life insurance business grew by 6.2% year-over-year to RMB2.8 billion, of which our regular life insurance first-year premiums ("FYP") increased by 9.1% year-over-year to RMB529.7 million. While we continued to increase investments in technology and training, we delivered an operating income of RMB32.2 million, representing a growth of 14.2% year-over-year, in line with our previous expectation."

"We are pleased to witness a continuous improvement in the quality of our sales force during the third quarter. In accordance with our plan, the total number of performing agents declined, while the per capita productivity of performing agents grew by nearly 20% year-over-year. The contribution from high-performing agents increased even further, with the number of ‘100K Premium Agents'³ growing by 46% year-over-year, representing 48% of our FYP during the quarter, compared to 39% for the corresponding period in 2021. This is yet another testament to the positive effects of our professionalization and career-based strategies."

"Centering around the needs for high-quality senior care, wealth management and inheritance solutions from the mass affluent and high-net-worth families, Fanhua continues to focus on magnifying our platform's empowering capabilities through the following initiatives: i) supporting our agents to provide whole life journey services by offering a wide spectrum of product and services that match the demands throughout customer's lifecycle; ii) empowering our agents to achieve professional growth through a combination of our 3F (‘Family Officer Consultant, Fanhua Retirement Planner and Family Policy Custodian') professional trainings, scenario-based marketing and the support from 3R (‘Account Responsibility, Solution Responsibility and Fulfillment Responsibility') marketing model, leveraging on our resources in trust and health care services and our proprietary insurance policy custody technology; and iii) improving the efficiency of customer services through our digitalization efforts."

"For the fourth quarter of 2022, considering the ongoing resurgences of COVID-19 cases across the country, the growth prospect of Chinese insurance industry remains challenging. Against this backdrop, Fanhua will continue with our established development strategies to empower agents and create value for customers."

Financial Results for the Third Quarter of 2022

Total net revenues were RMB624.7 million (US$87.8 million) for the third quarter of 2022, representing a decrease of 8.6% from RMB683.5 million for the corresponding period in 2021.

Net revenues for agency business were RMB522.7 million (US$73.5 million) for the third quarter of 2022, representing a decrease of 7.0% from RMB562.1 million for the corresponding period in 2021. In the third quarter of 2022, total GWP increased by 6.0% year-over-year to RMB2,871.1 million, of which FYP grew by 7.7% year-over-year to RMB610.9 million while renewal premiums increased by 5.6% year-over-year to RMB2,260.1 million.
- Net revenues for the life insurance business were RMB480.6 million (US$67.6 million) for the third quarter of 2022, representing a decrease of 8.5% from RMB525.2 million for the corresponding period in 2021. The decrease was mainly due to the decrease in the weighted average renewal commission rate of renewal premium collected, and to a lesser extent, due to the change in the product mix. For the long term life insurance policies that we sell, renewal commissions are paid throughout the policy payment period but the renewal commission rates are higher in the first few years after the sales of the insurance policies and recede year by year. In the third quarter of 2022, total life insurance GWP increased by 6.2% year-over-year to RMB2,789.9 million, of which FYP increased by 9.1% year-over-year to RMB529.7 million and renewal premiums increased by 5.6% year-over-year to RMB2,260.1 million.

Net revenues for the P&C insurance business are mainly derived from commissions for medical insurance, accident insurance, travel insurance and homeowner insurance products facilitated on Baowang (www.baoxian.com). Net revenues generated from the P&C insurance business accounted for 6.8% of our total net revenues in the third quarter of 2022.
Net revenues for the claims adjusting business were RMB102.0 million (US$14.3 million) for the third quarter of 2022, representing a decrease of 16.0% from RMB121.4 million for the corresponding period in 2021. The decrease was due to the disruption to our claims adjusting business as a result of the lockdowns in response to the COVID-19 outbreaks in several areas in China and contraction of our medical-insurance related claims adjusting business. Net revenues generated from the claims adjusting business accounted for 16.3% of our total net revenues in the third quarter of 2022.

  - Costs of the P&C insurance business were RMB25.2 million (US$3.5 million) for the third quarter of 2022, representing a decrease of 2.7% from RMB25.9 million for the corresponding period in 2021. The costs of the P&C insurance business mainly represent commission costs we incurred for operating Baowang (www.baoxian.com). Costs incurred by the P&C insurance business accounted for 6.4% of our total commission costs in the third quarter of 2022.
- Costs of claims adjusting business were RMB69.3 million (US$9.7 million) for the third quarter of 2022, representing a decrease of 5.6% from RMB73.4 million for the corresponding period in 2021.
