Safe Harbor Statement
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and as defined in the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements can be identified by terminology such as “will,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “future,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” “target,” “confident,” and similar expressions.
Forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations, assumptions, and assessments of current market and operating conditions. These statements involve inherent risks, uncertainties, and other factors, many of which are outside the control of Yiren Digital Ltd. (NYSE: YRD) (the “Company”), and which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such statements.
Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, significant fluctuations in loan origination volumes, changes in credit performance and delinquency trends, variations in take rates and monetization efficiency, availability and cost of funding, and the Company’s ability to achieve its anticipated financial results or previously issued guidance.
In addition, the Company operates in a highly regulated industry in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”), and its business is materially affected by the evolving regulatory framework applicable to credit facilitation, consumer finance, online lending-related services, data security, and financial risk management. Regulatory policies and implementation measures in these areas have undergone, and may continue to undergo, significant and rapid changes, including changes in interpretation and enforcement.
Such regulatory developments may include, but are not limited to, adjustments to risk retention and capital requirements, restrictions on pricing, interest rates, or service fees, enhanced consumer protection and compliance obligations, data privacy and cybersecurity requirements, and limitations on certain business models or partnership structures. These measures may materially impact the Company’s ability to originate loans, maintain relationships with funding partners, price its services competitively, or sustain historical revenue and profitability levels.
Furthermore, the timing, scope, and enforcement intensity of regulatory changes in the PRC are often uncertain and may vary across regions and over time. Such uncertainty may result in increased compliance costs, operational constraints, and strategic adjustments, and may also affect funding partner behavior, borrower demand, and overall industry liquidity.
In addition, shifts in regulatory policy and market expectations may adversely affect investor sentiment and capital market conditions for the industry, potentially resulting in reduced loan facilitation volumes, increased volatility in financial performance, and pressure on margins.
Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in forward-looking statements due to a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, unexpected changes in regulatory policies or enforcement practices, macroeconomic conditions, borrower credit behavior, funding partner participation, competitive dynamics, and other risks described in the Company’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this press release. The Company undertakes no, and expressly disclaims any, obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required under applicable law.
