Second Quarter 2017 Financial Results
Total net revenue for the second quarter of 2017 increased by $5.05 million, or 87.9%, to $10.80 million from $5.75 million for the same period of last year. The increase of total net revenue was mainly attributable to the increase in the volume of loans facilitated through our platform which increased by 91.0% to RMB 2.12 billion (approximately $308 million) for the second quarter of 2017 from RMB 1.11 billion (approximately $169 million) for the same period of last year.
The loan origination service fee increased by $2.38 million, or 58.2%, to $6.47 million for the second quarter of 2017 from $4.09 million for the same period of last year. The loan repayment management fee increased by $2.67 million, or 161.2%, to $4.33 million for the second quarter of 2017 from $1.66 million for the same period of last year. The loan origination service fee and loan repayment management fee accounted for 59.9% and 40.1%, respectively, of total net revenue for the second quarter of 2017, compared to 71.2% and 28.8%, respectively, for the same period of last year. The change is due to the shift in structure of our loan products towards longer duration loans. Since our loan repayment management fee is based on a certain percentage of the borrowing times duration of a loan, the more loans with longer terms, the more loan repayment management fees we generate. Loans that mature in two months or less accounted for only 24% of total loans for the second quarter of 2017, as compared to 50% for the same period of last year.
Operating expenses increased by $1.08 million, or 17.5%, to $7.24 million for the second quarter of 2017 from $6.17 million for the same period of last year. Sales and marketing expenses increased by $0.85 million, or 18.4%, to $5.46 million for the second quarter of 2017 from $4.61 million for the same period of last year. The increase in sales and marketing expenses was associated with sales and marketing efforts and promotion activities that led to higher volume of loans facilitated through our platform. General and administrative expenses increased $0.21 million, or 13.6%, to $1.71 million for the second quarter of 2017 from $1.51 million for the same period of last year, primarily due to expenses related to public company listing on the OTCQB.
Operating income was $3.55 million for the second quarter of 2017, compared to operating loss of $0.42 million for the same period of last year. The increase in operating income was primarily driven by increase in total net revenue and partially offset by increase in operating expenses. Operating profit margin was 32.9% for the second quarter of 2017, compared to operating loss margin of 7.3% for the same period of last year.
Provision for income taxes was $0.87 million for the second quarter of 2017, compared to nil for the same period of last year.
Net income was $2.89 million for the second quarter of 2017, compared to net loss of $0.41 million for the same period of last year.
Earnings per share was $0.040 for the second quarter of 2017, compared to net loss per share of $0.006 for the same period of last year.

Total net revenue for the first half of 2017 increased by $7.38 million, or 65.3%, to $18.69 million from $11.31 million for the same period of last year. The increase of total net revenue was mainly attributable to the increase in the volume of loans facilitated through our platform which increased by 64.5% to RMB 3.75 billion for the first half of 2017 from RMB 2.28 billion for the same period of last year.
The loan origination service fee increased by $3.50 million, or 42.9%, to $11.65 million for the first half of 2017 from $8.15 million for the same period of last year. The loan repayment management fee increased by $3.88 million, or 122.9%, to $7.04 million for the first half of 2017 from $3.16 million for the same period of last year. The loan origination service fee and loan repayment management fee accounted for 62.3% and 37.7%, respectively, of total net revenue for the first half of 2017, compared to 72.1% and 27.9%, respectively, for the same period of last year. The change is due to the shift in structure of our loan products towards longer duration loans. Since our loan repayment management fee is based on a certain percentage of the borrowing times duration of a loan, the more loans with longer terms, the more loan repayment management fees we generate. Loans that mature in two months or less accounted for only 25% of total loans for the first half of 2017, as compared to 51% in the same period of 2016, while loans with a term of three months or more increased from 49% in the first half of 2016 to 75% in the same period of 2017.
Operating expenses increased by $2.38 million, or 23.4%, to $12.52 million for the first half of 2017 from $10.15 million for the same period of last year. Sales and marketing expenses increased by $2.33 million, or 31.4%, to $9.73 million for the first half of 2017 from $7.41 million for the same period of last year. The increase in sales and marketing expenses was associated with sales and marketing efforts and promotion activities that led to higher volume of loans facilitated through our platform. General and administrative expenses increased $0.01 million, or 0.5%, to $2.65 million for the first half of 2017 from $2.63 million for the same period of last year. The Change in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to expenses related to public company listing on the OTCQB, offset by the layoff of more than 1,000 off-line sales related personnel in April 2016 to comply with new industry regulatory measures, which reduced related general and administrative expenses.
Operating income increased by $5.00 million, or 431.2%, to $6.16 million for the first half of 2017 from $1.16 million for the same period of last year. The increase in operating income was primarily driven by increase in total net revenue and partially offset by increase in operating expenses.

Provision for income taxes was $1.52 million for the first half of 2017, compared to $0.12 million for the same period of last year.
Net income increased by $3.84 million, or 364.9%, to $4.89 million for the first half of 2017, compared to $1.05 million for the same period of last year.
