SHANGHAI, March 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Cango, Inc. (NYSE: CANG) ("Cango" or the "Company"), a leading automotive transaction service platform in China, today announced its unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2019.

Fourth Quarter 2019 Financial and Operational Highlights

  • Total revenues increased by 36.6% to RMB438.5 million (US$63.0 million) from RMB321.1 million in the same period of 2018, outperforming the high end of the Company's guidance by 9.6%.
  • After-market services facilitation revenues increased to RMB89.6 million (US$12.9 million), or 20.4% of total revenues in the fourth quarter, continuing to serve as an important driver for the Company's revenue growth.
  • Income from operations increased by 231.0% to RMB117.7 million (US$16.9 million) from RMB35.6 million in the same period of 2018.
  • Net income increased by 96.8% to RMB102.4 million (US$14.7 million) from RMB52.0 million in the same period of 2018. Non-GAAP net income increased by 86.7% to RMB123.2 million (US$17.7 million) from RMB66.0 million in the same period of 2018.
  • The amount of financing transactions the Company facilitated in the fourth quarter of 2019 reached RMB9,575.1 million (US$1,375.4 million). The total outstanding balance of financing transactions the Company facilitated was RMB40,031.7 million (US$5,750.2 million) as of December 31, 2019.
  • M1+ and M3+ overdue ratios for all financing transactions that remained outstanding and were facilitated by the Company were 0.85% and 0.40%, respectively, as of December 31, 2019, as compared to 0.85% and 0.33%, respectively, as of September 30, 2019.
  • The number of dealers covered by the Company was 49,238 as of December 31, 2019, compared to 49,396 as of September 30, 2019. The decrease was a result of Cango's efforts to optimize the efficiency of its dealership network by removing certain dealers that failed to meet the Company's standards for operating risks and/or transaction referral capabilities.

Full Year 2019 Financial and Operational Highlights

  • Total revenues increased by 31.9% to RMB1,440.1 million (US$206.9 million) from RMB1,091.4 million in the full year of 2018.
  • After-market services facilitation revenues increased by 104.0% to RMB206.0 million (US$29.6 million), continuing to serve as an important driver for the Company's revenue growth.
  • Income from operations increased by 16.8% to RMB323.3 million (US$46.4 million) from RMB276.7 million in the full year of 2018.
  • Net income increased by 31.9% to RMB404.9 million (US$58.2 million) from RMB306.9 million in the full year of 2018. Non-GAAP net income increased by 43.1% to RMB487.1 million (US$70.0 million) from RMB340.3 million in the full year of 2018.
  • The amount of financing transactions the Company facilitated in the full year of 2019 reached RMB28,054.3 million (US$4,029.7 million).
  • M1+ and M3+ overdue ratios for all financing transactions that remained outstanding and were facilitated by the Company were 0.85% and 0.40%, respectively, as of December 31, 2019, as compared to 0.74% and 0.37%, respectively, as of December 31, 2018.
  • The number of dealers covered by the Company continued to grow on yearly basis, reaching 49,238 as of December 31, 2019, compared to 46,565 as of December 31, 2018.

We recognized revenue for the fourth quarter of 2019 in accordance with ASC 605, Revenue recognition ("ASC 605"). Pursuant to the relevant guidance of the Financial Accounting Standard Board, we recognized revenue for full year 2019 in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue recognition ("ASC 606"). As a result, our revenue for full year 2019 was RMB1,440.1 million (US$206.9 million), lower than the amount that we would have recognized under ASC 605. For further information, see "Adoption of New Accounting Standard."

Mr. Jiayuan Lin, Chief Executive Officer of Cango, commented, "We once again delivered strong financial and operating results in the fourth quarter, despite growing macroeconomic uncertainties and industry-wide challenges. Our robust performance is a testament to our ongoing efforts in the optimization of our dealership network, refinement of our cross-selling strategies, and effectiveness of our collaborations with key strategic partners.  During the fourth quarter, we further improved the efficiency of our dealership network by removing certain underperforming dealers, which enabled us to better standardize and augment the quality of our service offerings across our network.  We also established a solid foothold within China's car insurance market as our car insurance facilitation business achieved significant growth in the fourth quarter under our cross-selling strategy.

Looking into 2020, we are faced with the immediate complications of the COVID-19 outbreak. At the current stage, our top priority is protecting the health and well-being of our employees as well as our dealer partners. As such, we have mobilized our team to secure and distribute facemasks and other protective gear to our colleagues and their families across China. In addition, we have bought COVID-19 personal insurance to all employees, free of charge. At the same time, we also established a special-purpose fund to secure special health insurance policies for a large portion of our dealers' employees and their families.

In terms of our business performance, the epidemic is expected to severely disrupt auto dealers' operations in the first quarter. In addition, the epidemic is likely to adversely affect consumers' disposal income and the market's demand for cars. We expect to experience a decrease in the number of financing transactions, as well as an increase in delinquencies for outstanding transactions as a result of the epidemic. We facilitated 39,138 financing transactions in January and February of 2020, as compared to 71,765 in the same period in 2019.  At this point, it is not possible to predict when the epidemic will be effectively contained in China or when its economic impacts will be fully mitigated.  Therefore, it may continue to adversely affect our business after the first quarter of 2020.   

However, we remain fully confident in the strength of our business model, which had been proven in 2019 as we sustained our growth and business expansion against a backdrop of macroeconomic pressure and an underwhelming automotive market. Our previous success in navigating through adverse market conditions demonstrates our potential to further cement our industry leadership once the epidemic is contained and the industry resumes its growth trajectory.

Mr. Yongyi Zhang, Chief Financial Officer of Cango, stated, "Despite a challenging macroeconomic environment and a stagnating auto market in China, we concluded 2019 with a set of solid fourth quarter results as our total revenues increased by 36.6% year over year to RMB438.5 million. Notably, our after-market services facilitation business continued to serve as an important growth engine, contributing RMB89.6 million or 20.4% of our total revenues in the fourth quarter. Meanwhile, as a result of our efforts to optimize our cost management, we also expanded our profitability in the fourth quarter, as our net income increased by 96.8% to RMB102.4 million. Now, while we assess and monitor the financial impact of the COVID-19 outbreak, we are also actively strengthening our core competencies, which we believe will position us well for the opportunities that will potentially arise after the epidemic."

Definition of Overdue Ratios

The Company defines "M1+ overdue ratio" as (i) exposure at risk relating to financing transactions for which any installment payment is 30 to 179 calendar days past due as of a specified date, divided by (ii) exposure at risk relating to all financing transactions which remain outstanding as of such date, excluding amounts of outstanding principal that are 180 calendar days or more past due.

The Company defines "M3+ overdue ratio" as (i) exposure at risk relating to financing transactions for which any installment payment is 90 to 179 calendar days past due as of a specified date, divided by (ii) exposure at risk relating to all financing transactions which remain outstanding as of such date, excluding amounts of outstanding principal that are 180 calendar days or more past due.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measure

In evaluating the business, the Company considers and uses Non-GAAP adjusted net income, a non-GAAP measure, as a supplemental measure to review and assess its operating performance. The presentation of the non-GAAP financial measure is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company defines Non-GAAP adjusted net income as net income excluding share-based compensation expenses. The Company presents the non-GAAP financial measure because it is used by the management to evaluate the operating performance and formulate business plans. Non-GAAP adjusted net income enables the management to assess the Company's operating results without considering the impact of share-based compensation expenses, which are non-cash charges. The Company also believes that the use of the non-GAAP measure facilitates investors' assessment of its operating performance.

Non-GAAP adjusted net income is not defined under U.S. GAAP and is not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. This non-GAAP financial measure has limitations as analytical tools. One of the key limitations of using Non-GAAP adjusted net income is that it does not reflect all items of expense that affect the Company's operations. Share-based compensation expenses have been and may continue to be incurred in the business and are not reflected in the presentation of Non-GAAP adjusted net income. Further, the non-GAAP measure may differ from the non-GAAP information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited.

The Company compensates for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measure to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measure, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company's performance. The Company encourages you to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.

Reconciliations of Cango's non-GAAP financial measure to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure are included at the end of this press release.
