Adjusted profit declined to RMB7.68 per ADS (US$1.21 per ADS) from RMB8.81 per ADS in the first quarter of 2021.
“Although demand for consumer credit was as expected with normal seasonality in the first quarter, we started to take prudent approach to operate our business to better navigate through the uncertainty resulting from the challenging macro backdrop. At the end of the first quarter, our total cash and cash equivalent was approximately RMB9.8 billion, of which approximately RMB6.2 billion was non-restricted, giving us ever strong financial positions to support our long term growth while dealing with near term economic challenges,” said 360 DigiTech’s CFO Alex Xu.
