Commenting on the financial results of first quarter of 2021, Mr. Chunlin Wang, chairman and chief executive officer of Fanhua, stated, “We are glad to record strong growth across various operating metrics. During the first quarter of 2021, our total insurance gross written premiums (“GWP”) grew by 27.9% year over year to RMB3.1 billion, of which first year premiums was up 57.0% year-over-year to RMB892.7 million. Our net revenues was up 51.5% year-over-year to RMB1.1 billion and our operating income grew by 133.8% to RMB140.4 million.
“China’s life insurance market is undergoing deep reform which brings about both challenges and opportunities. With our ‘Professionalization, Digitalization and Open Platform’ strategy, we believe we are well positioned to capture these opportunities. We are glad that we’ve made steady progress in pushing forward the new strategy. Up to date, we have approved the establishment of nine Yuntong (literally translated as Cloud Phoenixtree) 3 branches as part of our efforts to strengthen our sales force and we expect to have two of the Yuntong branches in operation by July. To digitalize our operation, we started to promote our enterprise Wechat application among direct consumers on a trial basis in certain regions, which will help facilitate our agents to engage with their prospective customers more efficiently. In addition, our digital marketing center has so far recruited 100 service representatives to facilitate online and telemarketing transactions. Meanwhile, for open platform initiative, our Cloud Service Division has established partnerships with approximately 16 channel partners and is in the process of facilitating system connections and testing business processes.
“For the second quarter of 2021, amid persistent headwinds and a difficult year-on-year comparison due to 2020 Q2 post-Covid recovery, life insurance industry in China overall is expected to record a negative growth in new business. Against this backdrop, we expect our total GWP facilitated to be approximately RMB2.6 billion, representing a year-over-year growth of 6.7%. After considering incremental expenditures required for implementing the new strategy, we expect our operating income will be no less than RMB50 million.
“For the second half of 2021, we will continue to step up investment in executing on our new strategy while ensuring the achievement of no less than RMB300 million operating income for the full year of 2021.”
Financial Results for the First quarter of 2021
Total net revenues were RMB1,095.0 million (US$167.1 million) for the first quarter of 2021, representing an increase of 51.5% from RMB722.6 million for the corresponding period in 2020.
- Net revenues for agency business were RMB1,000.1 million (US$152.6 million) for the first quarter of 2021, representing an increase of 53.8% from RMB650.2 million for the corresponding period in 2020.
- Net revenues for the life insurance business were RMB969.2 million (US$147.9 million) for the first quarter of 2021, representing an increase of 55.0% from RMB625.2 million for the corresponding period in 2020. The increase was mainly due to a year-over-year growth of 64.7% in first year premiums of our life insurance business to RMB822.5 million, primarily reflecting the strong sales of life insurance business during the jumpstart sales season, and the year-over-year growth of 19.1% to RMB2,242.3 million in renewal premiums.
During the current period, estimated variable renewal commissions related to long-term life insurance products of RMB81.5 million was recognized in our financial statements. The estimated renewal commissions are contingent on future renewals of initial policies or achievement of certain performance targets. Given the material uncertainty around the subsequent renewal of the insurance policies, the estimated renewal commissions expected to be collected are recognized as revenue only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty is subsequently resolved. With the passing of time and accumulation of historical experiences and data, the judgment and assumptions will be continuously re-evaluated and adjusted as needed when more information becomes available. Actual renewal commissions in the future may differ significantly from those previously estimated.
Revenues generated from our life insurance business, which includes health insurance, accounted for 88.5% of our total net revenues in the first quarter of 2021. - Net revenues for the P&C insurance business were RMB30.9 million (US$4.7 million) for the first quarter of 2021, representing an increase of 23.6% from RMB25.0 million for the corresponding period in 2020. Net revenues for the P&C insurance business are mainly derived from commissions for accident insurance, short-term medical insurance, travel insurance and homeowner insurance products facilitated on Baowang (www.baoxian.com).
