| ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES | 1. ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES LexinFintech Holdings Ltd. (“Lexin” or the “Company”), formerly known as Staging Finance Holding Ltd., was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on November 22, 2013. The Company is a holding company and conducts its business mainly through its subsidiaries, variable interest entities (“VIEs”) and subsidiaries of the VIEs (collectively referred to as the “Group”). The Group offers online direct sales with installment payment terms and offers installment purchase loans and personal installment loans mainly through its retail and online consumer finance platform (“Platform”), www.fenqile.com, and its mobile application (“APP”) to young adults typically between the age of 18 and 36 (“Borrowers”) in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”). The Group addresses the Borrowers’ credit needs by offering installment purchase loans and personal installment loans. Installment purchase loans are loans offered to Borrowers who want to finance their online direct purchase from the Platform and APP with general terms between one month and thirty‑six months. Personal installment loans are loans provided to Borrowers who have consumption needs (other than online direct purchase) with terms generally ranging from one month to thirty‑six months. The Group finances the loans to Borrowers through its own online investment platform, www.juzilicai.com and its APP, or Juzi Licai, by offering various investment programs (“Investment Programs”) that are backed by the loans to the individual investors (“Individual Investors”). The Group also finances the loans with proceeds from third-party commercial banks, consumer finance companies, other licensed financial institutions and partnering peer-to-peer lending platforms (collectively “Institutional Funding Partners ”), and the establishment of consolidated trusts (“Trusts”) and issuance of asset-backed securitized debts. As of December 31, 2018, the Company’s principal subsidiaries, consolidated VIEs and subsidiaries of VIEs are as follows:
History of the Group and Basis of Presentation The Group commenced operations through Shenzhen Fenqile, a PRC company incorporated in August 2013 that offers online direct sales with installment payment terms, installment purchase loans and personal installment loans. The equity interests of Shenzhen Fenqile were held by Mr. Jay Wenjie Xiao, the Group’s founder, Chief Executive Officer and chairman of board of directors (the “Founding Shareholder”), and two angel investors, Mr. Richard Qiangdong Liu and Tibet Xianfeng Huaxing Changqing Investment Co. Ltd. (“Tibet Xianfeng Huaxing”), prior to July 2014. In October 2013, Beijing Lejiaxin was incorporated as an investment holding company in the PRC. The equity interests of Beijing Lejiaxin were held by the Founding Shareholder and Mr. Richard Qiangdong Liu. Beijing Lejiaxin established its wholly owned subsidiary Qianhai Juzi in June 2014 in order to launch the Group’s online investment platform Juzi Licai, which offers Investment Programs to the Individual Investors. 2014 Reorganization In order to facilitate international financing for the Company, the Group underwent a reorganization (“2014 Reorganization”) from November 2013 to July 2014. In November 2013, the Company was incorporated under the Laws of the Cayman Islands to be an offshore holding company for the Group. In December 2013, Installment HK was incorporated in Hong Kong as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. In July 2014, Beijing Shijitong was incorporated as a wholly owned subsidiary of Installment HK in the PRC. To comply with PRC laws and regulations which prohibit or restrict foreign ownership of Internet content, the Company obtained control over Shenzhen Fenqile and Beijing Lejiaxin through Beijing Shijitong by entering into a series of contractual arrangements with Shenzhen Fenqile, Beijing Lejiaxin and their shareholders in July 2014. These contractual arrangements include exclusive option agreements, power of attorney, exclusive business cooperation agreements, and equity pledge agreements. As a result of the 2014 Reorganization, Shenzhen Fenqile and Beijing Lejiaxin became the consolidated VIEs of the Group through the contractual arrangements described in Note 2(b). The Founding Shareholder, Tibet Xianfeng Huaxing, and Mr. Richard Qiangdong Liu are collectively referred to as the nominee shareholders. The nominee shareholders are defined as legal owners of an entity; however, the rights of the shareholders have been transferred to the Company through contractual arrangements. Concurrently with the 2014 Reorganization, the Company completed its Pre-IPO Class B Ordinary Shares, Pre-IPO Series A‑1 Preferred Shares and Pre-IPO Series A‑2 Preferred Shares financing. The 2014 Reorganization was accounted for as a reorganization and the historical financial statements were presented on a carryover basis. 2016 Reorganization In December 2015, Shenzhen Xinjie was incorporated by the Founding Shareholder as an investment holding company in the PRC. In March 2016, Shenzhen Xinjie acquired 73.33% equity interests of Shenzhen Fenqile by investing additional capital in Shenzhen Fenqile to better structure the Group, and the remaining equity interests were still held by the same nominee shareholders (“2016 Reorganization”). In January 2016, Shenzhen Xinjie established a subsidiary Shenzhen Tiqianle to offer online direct sales and online consumer finance services. In January 2016, Qianhai Dingsheng was incorporated by the Founding Shareholder (90%) and Shenzhen Xinjie (10%) to conduct financial technology services business. The Company obtained control over Shenzhen Xinjie and Qianhai Dingsheng through Beijing Shijitong in December 2015 and January 2016 respectively by entering into a series of contractual arrangements with Shenzhen Xinjie, Qianhai Dingsheng and the Founding Shareholder. These contractual arrangements include exclusive option agreements, power of attorney, exclusive business cooperation agreements, and equity pledge agreements. As a result of the 2016 Reorganization, Shenzhen Xinjie and Qianhai Dingsheng became the consolidated VIEs of the Group through the contractual arrangements described in Note 2(b) and the Company’s ability to control Shenzhen Fenqile remains unchanged. Shenzhen Fenqile then became one of the subsidiaries of Shenzhen Xinjie. All the entities involved in the 2016 Reorganization were under common control and therefore the historical financial statements were presented on a carryover basis. In December 2016, Ji’an Microcredit and Shenzhen Fenqile Trading were incorporated by Shenzhen Fenqile. The two entities started to carry out online consumer credit businesses and online direct sales businesses respectively since early 2017. In March 2017, Shenzhen Lexin Software was incorporated by Installment HK to conduct software development businesses. Subsequently in March 2017, the Founding Shareholder transferred 90% equity interests of Qianhai Dingsheng to two employees as the nominee shareholders and the remaining 10% equity interests were still held by Shenzhen Xinjie. In April 2017, Beijing Shijitong granted a loan with a total principal of RMB10.0 million to these two nominee shareholders and Shenzhen Xinjie. In May 2017, Beijing Shijitong granted another loan with a total principal of RMB1.0 million to the nominee shareholders of Shenzhen Xinjie. The two loans granted by Beijing Shijitong were solely for the purpose of providing funds necessary for capital injection into the VIEs to operate their respective businesses. Term of both loans is ten years and will be extended automatically for another ten years on each expiration. These loans were eliminated with the paid-in capital of the VIEs during consolidation. In August 2018, Mengtian Technology, which previously was a subsidiary of one of the Company’s VIEs, became a consolidated VIE by entering into a series of contractual arrangements with its nominee shareholders and Shenzhen Lexin Software as described in Note 2(b). Management concluded that the Company is entitled to substantially all of the economic benefits from the VIEs and is obligated to absorb all of their expected losses. As such, the Company is the ultimate primary beneficiary of the VIEs and shall consolidate the financial results of these VIEs and their subsidiaries in the Group’s consolidated financial statements. Refer to Note 2(b) to the consolidated financial statements for the basis of consolidation. Initial Public Offering On December 26, 2017, the Company completed its initial public offering (“IPO”) on the NASDAQ Global Market in the United States of America. In this offering, 12,000,000 American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”), representing 24,000,000 Class A ordinary shares (“Class A Ordinary Shares”), were issued and sold to the public at a price of US$9.00 per ADS. Immediately prior to the completion of the IPO, in accordance with the written resolutions passed by the board of directors of the Company and its shareholders in October 2017 (“October 2017 Resolutions”), all of 110,647,199 shares of issued and outstanding Pre-IPO Class A Ordinary Shares were automatically redesignated into Class B Ordinary Shares on a one-for-one basis. All of 193,070,940 shares of issued and outstanding, Pre-IPO Class B Ordinary Shares, Pre-IPO Series A-2 Preferred Shares, Pre-IPO Series B-1 Preferred Shares, Pre-IPO Series B-2 Preferred Shares, Pre-IPO Series C-1 Preferred Shares, and Pre-IPO Series C-2 Preferred Shares (collectively, “Pre-IPO Preferred Shares”) were automatically converted and redesignated into Class A Ordinary Shares on a one-for-one basis. In addition, the authorized share capital of the Company was increased from US$50,000 divided into 500,000,000 shares with par value of US$0.0001 each, to US$500,000 divided into 5,000,000,000 shares with par value of US$0.0001 each, of which (i) 1,889,352,801 shares were designated as Class A Ordinary Shares; (ii) 110,647,199 shares were designated as Class B Ordinary Shares; and (iii) 3,000,000,000 shares were designated as Reserved Shares, with rights preferences and privileges as set forth in the Sixth Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company effective immediately prior to the completion of the IPO. In January 2018, the underwriters of the Company’s IPO exercised the options to purchase an additional 1,800,000 ADSs, representing 3,600,000 Class A Ordinary Shares, par value US$0.0001 per share, of the Company to cover over-allotments in full. The net proceeds in connection with 1,800,000 ADSs received by the Company was RMB95.1 million (US$14.7 million), which represents a total gross capital raise of RMB105.2 million (US$16.2 million) less underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses in the aggregate amount of RMB10.1 million (US$1.5 million). |

| SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (a) Basis of presentation The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Significant accounting policies followed by the Group in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements are summarized below. Revision of previously announced unaudited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018 The Group revised its unaudited consolidated balance sheets as previously announced through press release filed on Form 6-K in March 2019, to reflect classification adjustments (“Classification Adjustments”) of short-term Funding Debts and long-term Funding Debts as of December 31, 2018. The Classification Adjustments had no impact on the Group’s results of operations and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2018, or the line items of the Consolidated Balance Sheets other than short-term Funding Debts and Long-term Funding Debts as of December 31, 2018. This revision was not material to the previously announced unaudited financial statements taken as a whole based on assessment under relevant guidance. The impact of the Classification Adjustments on the line items within the Group’s Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2018 is as follows:
(b) Basis of consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, its subsidiaries, the VIEs and subsidiaries of the VIEs for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Subsidiaries are those entities in which the Company, directly or indirectly, controls more than one half of the voting power or has the power to govern the financial and operating policies, to appoint or remove the majority of the members of the board of directors, or to cast a majority of votes at the meeting of directors. A consolidated VIE is an entity in which the Company, or its subsidiaries, through contractual arrangements, has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, bears the risks of and enjoys the rewards normally associated with ownership of the entity, and therefore the Company or its subsidiaries is the primary beneficiary of the entity. All transactions and balances among the Company, its subsidiaries, the VIEs and subsidiaries of the VIEs have been eliminated upon consolidation. VIE Companies (excluding the consolidated Trusts and asset-backed securitized debts as discussed in Note 2 (f)) a. Contractual Agreements with VIEs The following is a summary of the contractual agreements (collectively, “Contractual Agreements”) that the Company’s relevant PRC subsidiaries entered into with the VIEs and their nominee shareholders. Through the Contractual Agreements, the VIEs are effectively controlled by the Company. Exclusive Option Agreements. Pursuant to the Exclusive Option Agreements, the nominee shareholders of the VIEs have irrevocably granted the Group’s relevant PRC subsidiaries an exclusive option to purchase all or part of their respective equity interests in the VIEs. The purchase price shall be the lowest price permitted by law. Without prior written consent of the Group’s relevant PRC subsidiaries, the VIEs shall not, among other things, amend their articles of association, increase or decrease the registered capital, sell, dispose of or set any encumbrance on their assets and equity interests in VIEs, business or revenue, enter into any material contract outside the ordinary course of business, merge with any other persons or make any investments, distribute dividends, or enter into any transactions which have material adverse effects on their business. These agreements will remain effective until the Group’s relevant PRC subsidiaries and/or any third party designated by the Group’s relevant PRC subsidiaries have acquired all equity interests of the VIEs from their respective nominee shareholders. Power of Attorney. Pursuant to the Power of Attorney, each nominee shareholder of the VIEs irrevocably authorizes the Group’s relevant PRC subsidiaries to act as its attorney-in-fact to exercise all of such shareholder’s voting and other rights associated with the shareholder’s equity interests in the VIEs, including but not limited to, the right to attend shareholder meetings on behalf of such shareholder, the right to appoint legal representatives, directors, supervisors and chief executive officers and other senior management, and the right to sell, transfer, pledge and dispose of all or a portion of the shares held by such shareholder. The power of attorney is irrevocable and remains in force continuously upon execution. Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreements. Pursuant to these Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreements, the Group’s relevant PRC subsidiaries have the exclusive right to provide the VIEs with comprehensive business support, technical support and consulting services. Without prior written consent of the Group’s relevant PRC subsidiaries, the VIEs shall not accept any services covered by these agreements from any third party. The VIEs agree to pay service fees in an amount determined by the Group’s relevant PRC subsidiaries based on respective profits calculated as operating revenue minus operating cost of the VIEs for the relevant period on a yearly basis or other service fees for specific services as required and as otherwise agreed by both parties. The Group’s relevant PRC subsidiaries own the intellectual property rights arising out of the services performed under these agreements. Unless the Group’s relevant PRC subsidiaries terminate these agreements or pursuant to other provisions of these agreements, these agreements will remain effective indefinitely. These agreements can be terminated by the Group’s relevant PRC subsidiaries through a 30-day advance written notice, the VIEs have no right to unilaterally terminate these agreements. The Group’s relevant PRC subsidiaries are entitled to substantially all of the economic benefits of the VIEs. Loan Agreements. Pursuant to the relevant loan agreements, the Group’s relevant PRC subsidiaries have granted loans to the relevant nominee shareholders of the VIEs solely for the purpose of providing funds necessary for capital injection into the VIEs to operate their respective businesses. Pursuant to these loan agreements, the nominee shareholders can only repay the loans by the transfer of all their equity interests in the VIEs to the Group’s relevant PRC subsidiaries. The nominee shareholders of the VIEs must pay all of the proceeds from transfer of such equity interests to the Group’s relevant PRC subsidiaries. In the event that the nominee shareholders transfer their equity interests to the Group’s relevant PRC subsidiaries or their designated person(s) with a price equivalent to or less than the amount of the principal, the loans will be interest free. If the price is higher than the amount of the principal, the excess amount will be paid to the Group’s relevant PRC subsidiaries as the loan interest. The loans must be repaid immediately when permitted by PRC laws at the request of the Group’s relevant PRC subsidiaries. Term of both loans is ten years and will be extended automatically for another ten years on each expiration. Equity Pledge Agreements. Pursuant to these Equity Pledge Agreements, each nominee shareholder of the VIEs has pledged all of his, her or its respective equity interests in the VIEs to the Group’s relevant PRC subsidiaries to guarantee the performance by such nominee shareholder and the VIEs of their respective obligations under the Exclusive Option Agreements, the Power of Attorney, the Loan Agreements, where applicable, and the Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreements, and any amendment, supplement or restatement to such agreements. If the VIEs or any of their nominee shareholders breach any obligations under these agreements, the Group’s relevant PRC subsidiaries, as pledgee, will be entitled to dispose of the pledged equity and have priority to be compensated by the proceeds from the disposal of the pledged equity. Each of the nominee shareholders of the VIEs agrees that before his, her or its obligations under the Contractual Agreements are discharged, he, she or it will not dispose of the pledged equity interests, create or allow any encumbrance on the pledged equity interests, which may result in the change of the pledged equity that may have adverse effects on the pledgee’s rights under these agreements without the prior written consent of the Group’s relevant PRC subsidiaries. These Equity Pledge Agreements will remain effective until the VIEs and their nominee shareholders discharge all their respective obligations under the Contractual Agreements. In April 2015, the Contractual Agreements between Beijing Shijiton and Shenzhen Fenqile were restated to reflect the replacement of Tibet Xianfeng Huaxing with its affiliated entity, Tibet Xianfeng Changqing Start-up Investment and Management Co., Ltd. (formerly known as Tibet Xianfeng Management Consultation Co., Ltd.), as a nominee shareholder of Shenzhen Fenqile. In March 2016, the Contractual Agreements between Beijing Shijitong and Shenzhen Fenqile were restated to reflect the 2016 Reorganization. These changes had no impact on the Group’s effective control over Shenzhen Fenqile, and therefore had no impact on the consolidated financial statements. In March 2017, the Contractual Agreements between Beijing Shijitong and Qianhai Dingsheng were restated to reflect the replacement of the Founding Shareholder with two employees nominee shareholders of Qianhai Dingsheng. In April and May 2017, the Contractual Agreements between Beijing Shijitong and Qianhai Dingsheng were restated to reflect the Loan Agreements entered into between Beijing Shijitong and the nominee shareholders of Qianhai Dingsheng, and Beijing Shijitong and the nominee shareholders of Shenzhen Xinjie, respectively. These changes had no impact on the Group’s effective control over Qianhai Dingsheng and Shenzhen Xinjie, and therefore had no impact on the consolidated financial statements. b. Risks in relation to the VIE structure Under the Contractual Agreements with the VIEs, the Company has the power to direct activities of the VIEs and VIEs’ subsidiaries and can have assets transferred out of the VIEs and VIEs’ subsidiaries. Therefore, the Company considers itself the ultimate primary beneficiary of the VIEs and there is no asset of the VIEs that can only be used to settle obligations of the VIEs and VIEs’ subsidiaries except for registered capitals and PRC statutory reserves of the Group’s consolidated VIEs amounting to RMB3,342.5 million as of December 31, 2018. Since the VIEs are incorporated as limited liability companies under the PRC Company Law, creditors of the VIEs do not have recourse to the general credit of the Company. There is currently no contractual arrangement that would require the Company to provide additional financial support to the VIEs. However, as the Company is conducting certain businesses mainly through its VIEs and VIEs’ subsidiaries, the Company may provide such support on a discretionary basis in the future, which could expose the Company to a loss. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the contractual arrangements among its subsidiaries, the VIEs and their respective nominee shareholders are in compliance with current PRC laws and are legally binding and enforceable. However, uncertainties in the interpretation and enforcement of the PRC laws, regulations and policies could limit the Company’s ability to enforce these contractual arrangements. As a result, the Company may be unable to consolidate the VIEs and VIEs’ subsidiaries in the consolidated financial statements. In March 2019, the draft Foreign Investment Law was submitted to the National People’s Congress for review and was approved on March 15, 2019, which will come into effect on January 1, 2020. The approved Foreign Investment Law does not touch upon the relevant concepts and regulatory regimes that were historically suggested for the regulation of VIE structures, and thus this regulatory topic remains unclear under the Foreign Investment Law. Given that the Foreign Investment Law is new, substantial uncertainties exist with respect to its implementation and interpretation and the possibility that the VIEs will be deemed as foreign-invested enterprise and subject to relevant restrictions in the future shall not be excluded. The Company’s ability to control the VIEs also depends on the power of attorney the Group’s relevant PRC subsidiaries have to vote on all matters requiring shareholders’ approvals in the VIEs. As noted above, the Company believes these power of attorney are legally binding and enforceable but may not be as effective as direct equity ownership. In addition, if the Group’s corporate structure or the contractual arrangements with the VIEs were found to be in violation of any existing PRC laws and regulations, the PRC regulatory authorities could, within their respective jurisdictions:
The imposition of any of these restrictions or actions may result in a material adverse effect on the Group’s ability to conduct its business. In addition, if the imposition of any of these restrictions causes the Group to lose the right to direct the activities of the VIEs or the right to receive their economic benefits, the Group would no longer be able to consolidate the financial statements of the VIEs. In the opinion of management, the likelihood of losing the benefits in respect of the Group’s current ownership structure or the contractual arrangements with its VIEs is remote. Summary of Financial Information of the Group’s VIEs The following table sets forth the assets, liabilities, results of operations and changes in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash of the VIEs (including the consolidated Trusts and asset-backed securitized debts) and their subsidiaries taken as a whole, which were included in the Group’s consolidated financial statements with intercompany balances and transactions eliminated:
(c) Use of estimates The preparation of the Group’s consolidated financial statements is in conformity with the U.S. GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of financial statement and reported revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Significant accounting estimates include, but are not limited to (i) revenue recognition; (ii) fair value of financial guarantee derivative liabilities; (iii) valuation and recognition of share-based compensation expenses; (iv) provision for income tax and valuation allowance for deferred tax assets; (v) provision for credit losses of financing receivables, contract assets, and service fees receivable; (vi) determination of fair value of long-term investments, (vii) determination of the fair value of Pre-IPO Preferred Shares and Pre-IPO Class A Ordinary Shares. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates. (d) Functional currency and foreign currency translation The Group uses Renminbi (“RMB”) as its reporting currency. The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries incorporated in Hong Kong is United States dollars (“US$”) and the functional currencies of the PRC entities in the Group are RMB. In the consolidated financial statements, the financial information of the Company and its subsidiaries incorporated in Hong Kong have been translated into RMB at the exchange rates quoted by the People’s Bank of China (the “PBOC”). Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates on the balance sheet date, equity amounts are translated at historical exchange rates, and revenues, expenses, gains and losses are translated using the average rate for the period. Translation adjustments arising from these are reported as foreign currency translation adjustments, and are shown as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) on the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Shareholders’ (Deficit )/Equity and a component of other comprehensive income/(loss) on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive (Loss)/Income. Foreign currency transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are remeasured at the applicable rates of exchange in effect at that date. Foreign currency exchange gain or loss resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from remeasurement at period‑end is recognized in “Others, net” on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Foreign currency translation adjustments included in the Group’s Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive (Loss )/Income for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2017 and 2018 were gain of RMB1.9 million, loss of RMB31.9 million, and gain of RMB0.6 million, respectively. Foreign currency exchange gain or loss recorded was immaterial for each of the periods presented.
(e) Convenience translation Translations of balances on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, Consolidated Statements of Operations, Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive (Loss)/Income and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows from RMB into US$ as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018 are solely for the convenience of the readers and were calculated at the rate of US$1.00=RMB6.8755, representing the noon buying rate set forth in the H.10 statistical release of the U.S. Federal Reserve Board on December 31, 2018. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted, realized or settled into US$ at that rate on December 31, 2018, or at any other rate. (f) Presentation for on- and off-balance sheet loans The Group finances the loans with the proceeds from various funding parties, which primarily include: (1) the Individual Investors on Juzi Licai; (2) the Institutional Funding Partners; (3) third-party investors of the consolidated Trusts and asset-backed securitized debts. Depending on the arrangements among the Group, the Borrowers and the funding parties, the underlying loans are accounted for as “on-balance sheet loans” or “off-balance sheet loans”, where applicable. On‑balance sheet loans (a) Loans funded by the Individual Investors on Juzi Licai under the Old Model (as defined hereinafter)or certain Institutional Funding Partners For loans funded by the proceeds from the Group’s own online investment platform Juzi Licai under the Old Model (as defined hereinafter), which offers the Individual Investors various Investment Programs with different terms and estimated rates of return, or from certain Institutional Funding Partners, the Group’s roles include: (1) collecting the investment principal from the Individual Investors or Institutional Funding Partners and lending the funds to the Borrowers, (2) collecting monthly repayment from the Borrowers and repaying the Individual Investors or Institutional Funding Partners according to the terms (i.e. interest rate and scheduled repayment dates) of respective Investment Programs or agreements (“Investment Agreements”) between the Individual Investors or Institutional Funding Partners and the Group. The Group noted that the terms of the underlying loan agreements between the Individual Investors or Institutional Funding Partners and the Borrowers (“Underlying Loan Agreements”) do not necessarily match the terms of the Investment Programs or Agreements. The mismatch is mainly due to the fact that some Individual Investors or Institutional Funding Partners may invest in the programs that have shorter investment periods than the terms of the Underlying Loan Agreements. Depending on the types of Investment Programs the Individual Investors choose or the Investment Agreements the Institutional Funding Partners entered into with the Group, the investing periods could be as short as one week and as long as thirty-six months. Pursuant to the Investment Programs or Agreements, the Individual Investors or Institutional Funding Partners agree on a rate of return with the Group which is normally lower than the coupon interest rate stipulated in the Underlying Loan Agreement, given the shorter periods of those Investment Programs or Agreements. The Group considers the terms of the Investment Programs or Agreements, which drive the return of the investments, and concludes the Group has liabilities to the Individual Investors or Institutional Funding Partners when the underlying loans are funded. Accordingly, the Group is considered as the primary obligor to the Individual Investors or Institutional Funding Partners in the lending relationship and therefore records the liabilities to the Individual Investors or Institutional Funding Partners as “Funding Debts” (Note 2(j)) on its Consolidated Balance Sheets. The underlying loans are recorded as “Financing receivables, net” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Quality assurance program on Juzi Licai In July 2017, the Group established a quality assurance program (“QAP”) with the purposes of providing make-up payments to the Individual Investors on Juzi Licai when the Borrowers fail to satisfy their principal or interest repayment obligations. A portion of each monthly repayment by the Borrower equal to a certain percentage of the outstanding principal balance of the loan was transferred to a third-party custody bank account. The Group reserved the right to revise this percentage upwards or downwards from time to time. The QAP only applied to loans funded by the Individual Investors under the Old Model on or after July 7, 2017. Considering that the loans covered by the QAP were accounted for as on-balance sheet loans, the Group was obligated to repay the Individual Investors for all amounts of principal and future interests regardless of whether the QAP was implemented or not. The Group determined that there were no additional liabilities to be recognized in addition to the principal and interests due to the Individual Investors recorded as “Funding Debts” (Note 2(j)) and “Accrued interest payable” on its Consolidated Balance Sheets. The quality assurance funds set aside under the QAP through custody bank accounts were recorded as “Restricted cash” on its Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Group applied the same process and methodology to evaluate the creditworthiness and collectability of the loan portfolio covered by the QAP on a pooled basis, mainly based on delinquency levels and historical charge-offs. (b) Loans funded by establishment of the consolidated Trusts and issuance of asset-backed securitized debts The Group establishes business relationships with Trusts from time to time. Pursuant to applicable arrangements, the Group invested in the financing receivables using funds from the consolidated Trusts. The Trusts are administered by third-party trust companies, which act as the trustees, with funds contributed by the Group and/or other third-party investors for the purposes of providing returns to the beneficiary of the Trusts. Since these Trusts only invest in financing receivables generated from the Group’s Platform and APP, the Group has power to direct the activities of the Trusts. The Group has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the Trusts that could potentially be significant to the Trusts. As a result, the Trusts are considered consolidated VIEs of the Group under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation. The Group created an asset-backed securitization plan (“ABS Plan”) with a final maturity of January 2018 in December 2015 and securitized its financing receivables arising from online direct sales through the transfer of those assets to the ABS Plan. The ABS Plan then issued debt securities to third-party investors and was considered a consolidated VIE under ASC 810, Consolidation. Therefore, loans funded by the consolidated Trusts and asset-backed securitized debts remain at the Group and are recorded as “Financing receivables, net” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The proceeds received from third-party investors of the consolidated Trusts and asset-backed securitized debts are recorded as Funding Debts (Note 2(j)). Cash received via consolidated Trusts that has not yet been distributed is recorded as restricted cash. Off‑balance sheet loans (a) Loans funded by the Individual Investors on Juzi Licai under the New Model (as defined hereinafter) In late April 2018, the Group made some adjustments to its business model for new loans funded by the Individual Investors on Juzi Licai (the “New Model”, and the “Old Model” refers to the business model of Juzi Licai before such adjustments). Under the New Model, the Group’s roles include: (1) matching the borrowing requests from the Borrowers with the Individual Investors on Juzi Licai, (2) processing monthly repayment from the Borrowers according to the terms of the Underlying Loan Agreements through third-party custodian bank accounts, and (3) providing ongoing management services to the Individual Investors over the terms of respective Investment Programs. Under the New Model, the Group acts as an intermediary between the Borrower and the Individual Investors. Pursuant to the Underlying Loan Agreement and the Investment Programs, the Individual Investors are entitled to all the interests generated from the underlying loans. Such interests are not generated until the lending relationship has been established between the Borrowers and the Individual Investors, as the lenders, upon entering into the Underlying Loan Agreements. The existing Individual Investor cannot exit from any lending relationship of outstanding loan unless the underlying loan is fully repaid or the outstanding loan principal with the remaining term is successfully re-matched with other Individual Investors. The Group provides ongoing matching and re-matching services to the Individual Investors over the terms of respective Investment Programs while it does not have any obligations to ensure such successful re-matching. The Group considers the terms of the Underlying Loan Agreements and the Investment Programs under the New Model and concludes that the Group is not the legal lender or borrower in the loan origination and repayment process. Accordingly, the Group does not record financing receivables arising from these loans nor Funding Debts to the Individual Investors. Risk safeguard scheme on Juzi Licai Under the New Model, the Group has ceased offering the QAP for loans funded by the Individual Investors on Juzi Licai. Instead, the Group entered into a cooperation agreement with an independent third-party guarantee company (the “Guarantee Company”), to set up a new investor protection program called the Risk Safeguard Scheme (“RSS”). The purpose of the RSS is to provide make-up payments to the Individual Investors on Juzi Licai when the Borrowers default. The RSS only applies to loans newly funded under the New Model, and requires the Borrowers to contribute to the RSS to protect the Individual Investors. By default, all Borrowers enroll in the RSS when the Underlying Loan Agreements are entered into. Pursuant to the Underlying Loan Agreement, the Borrower agrees to enroll in the RSS and pay the guarantee fee (the “Guarantee Fee”) into the guarantee fund special account (“Risk Safeguard Fund”) and the relevant guarantee service fees to the Guarantee Company. Accordingly, a certain amount of each monthly repayment from the Borrowers, equal to a certain percentage of the outstanding principal balance of each loan, shall be transferred to the Risk Safeguard Fund. The Group has the discretion in determining the percentage, i.e. the amount of the Guarantee Fee, to be paid by the participating Borrowers. The amount of make-up payments is limited to the available balance of the Risk Safeguard Fund. If the Risk Safeguard Fund become insufficient to pay back all Individual Investors with defaulted loans, these Individual Investors will be repaid on a pro rata basis, and their outstanding unpaid loans will be deferred to the next time the Risk Safeguard Fund are replenished, at which time a distribution will again be made to all Individual Investors with those defaulted loans. The participation of the Risk Safeguard Fund is not refundable, even if there is no default of loans. Therefore, the Group concluded that it is the primary obligor in providing the guarantee services and records its obligations associated with the RSS in accordance with ASC 460, Guarantees as discussed in Note 2(l). The balance of Risk Safeguard Fund is recorded as “Restricted cash” on its Consolidated Balance Sheets. (b) Loans funded by certain other Institutional Funding Partners such as third-party commercial banks or consumer finance companies For loans funded by the proceeds from certain other Institutional Funding Partners such as third-party commercial banks or consumer finance companies, each underlying loan and Borrower has to be approved by the third-party commercial banks or consumer finance companies individually. Once the loan is approved by and originated by the third-party commercial bank or consumer finance company, the fund is provided by third-party commercial bank or consumer finance company to the Borrower and a lending relationship between the Borrower and third-party commercial bank or consumer finance company is established through a loan agreement. Effectively, the Group offers loan facilitation and matching services to the Borrowers who have credit needs and the commercial banks or consumer finance companies who originate loans directly to Borrowers referred by the Group. The Group continues to provide account maintenance, collection, and payment processing services to the Borrowers over the term of the loan agreement. At the same time, the Group also provides a financial guarantee on the principal and the accrued interest repayment of the defaulted loans in case of Borrowers’ defaults, and full interest repayment under the original terms in the event that Borrowers early repay their loans. Under this scenario, the Group determines that it is not the legal lender or borrower in the loan origination and repayment process. Accordingly, the Group does not record financing receivables arising from these loans nor Funding Debts to the third-party commercial banks or consumer finance companies. Separately, the Group accounts for the financial guarantee provided as discussed in Note 2(m). Measurement of financing receivables Financing receivables are measured at amortized cost and reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at outstanding principal adjusted for any charge-offs, the allowance for credit losses, and net deferred origination fees on originated financing receivables. The Group recognizes interest and financial services income over the terms of the financing receivables using the effective interest rate method. Refer to Note 2(n) for details. For financing receivables initially generated from online sales with installment payment terms on the Group’s Platform or APP, if they are subsequently funded by on-balance sheet loans, the Group considers that the financing receivables are not settled or extinguished, and therefore continues to account for these financing receivables according to the installment payment terms. If the financing receivables are subsequently funded by off-balance sheet loans, the Group considers that these financing receivables are settled and extinguished with the proceeds from the off-balance sheet loans as facilitated by the Group. (g) Provision for credit losses The Group has the following types of financial assets that are subject to credit losses of the customers: financing receivables, contract assets, service fees receivable, and Risk Safeguard Fund receivable. The Group assesses the creditworthiness and collectability of the portfolios of respective financial assets, mainly based on delinquency levels and historical charge offs of respective underlying on- and off-balance sheet loans, where applicable, using an established systematic process on a pooled basis within each credit risk levels of the Borrowers. The Group considers location, education background, income level, outstanding external borrowings, and external credit references when assigning Borrowers into different credit risk levels. Also, each portfolio of respective financial asset subject to credit losses within each credit risk level consists of individually small amount of on- and off-balance sheet loans. In the consideration of above factors, the Group determines that each portfolio of respective financial asset subject to credit losses within each credit risk level is homogenous with similar credit characteristics. The Group’s provision for credit losses of financial assets is calculated separately within each credit risk level of the Borrowers, taking into considerations of flexible repayment options of the underlying on- and off-balance sheet loans, where applicable. For each credit risk level, the Group estimates the expected loss rate based on delinquency status of the respective financial assets within that level: current, 1 to 29, 30 to 59, 60 to 89, 90 to 119, 120 to 149, 150 to 179 calendar days past due. These loss rates in each delinquency status are based on average historical loss rates of financial assets subject to credit losses associated with each of the abovementioned delinquency categories. The expected loss rate of the specific delinquency status category within each risk level will be applied to the applicable outstanding balances of respective financial assets within that level to determine the provision for credit losses for each reporting period. In addition, the Group considers other general economic conditions, if any, when determining the provision for credit losses. (h) Accrued interest receivable Accrued interest income on financing receivables is calculated based on the contractual interest rate of the loan and recorded as interest and financial services income as earned. Financing receivables are placed on non‑accrual status upon reaching 90 days past due. When a financing receivable is placed on non‑accrual status, the Group stops accruing interest and reverses all accrued but unpaid interest as of such date.
(i) Nonaccrual financing receivables and charged‑off financing receivables The Group considers a financing receivable to be delinquent when a monthly payment is one day past due. When the Group determines it is probable that it will be unable to collect unpaid principal amount on the receivable, the remaining unpaid principal balance is charged off against the allowance for credit losses. Generally, charge‑offs occur after the 180th day of delinquency. Interest and financial services income for nonaccrual financing receivables is recognized on a cash basis. Cash receipt of non‑accrual financing receivables would be first applied to any unpaid principal, late payment fees, if any, before recognizing interest and financial services income. The Group does not resume accrual of interest after a loan has been placed on nonaccrual status.
(j) Funding Debts For the proceeds received from the Individual Investors on Juzi Licai, and other funding partners, including certain Institutional Funding Partners and the third-party investors of the consolidated Trusts, and the issuance of asset backed securitized debts, to fund the Group’s on balance sheet loans, the Group records them as funding debts (“ Funding Debts”) on its Consolidated Balance Sheets.
(k) Accrued interest payable Accrued interest payable is calculated based on the contractual interest rates of Funding Debts.
(l) Risk Safeguard Fund receivable and payable For the off-balance sheet loans funded by the Individual Investors on Juzi Licai, the obligations associated with the Risk Safeguard Fund are comprised of two components: (i) ASC 460 component; and (ii) ASC 450 component. In accordance with ASC 460-10-25-2 and ASC 460-10-30-3, the non-contingent and contingent aspect of the financial guarantee must both be considered at initial measurement. Accordingly, the Risk Safeguard Fund payable is measured at fair value at inception and reduced as the Group is released from the underlying risk, i.e., as the underlying loan is repaid by the Borrower or when the Individual Investor is compensated in the event of a Borrower’s default. This component is a stand ready obligation which is not subject to the probable threshold used to record a contingent obligation. The fair value of the guarantee associated with the Risk Safeguard Fund recorded at inception of the loans is estimated using a discounted cash flow model to its expected net payouts from the Risk Safeguard Fund, and also by incorporating a markup margin. The other component is a contingent liability determined based on historical default rates, representing the obligation to make future payouts from the Risk Safeguard Fund, measured using the guidance in ASC 450, Contingencies. The ASC 450 contingent component considers the actual and expected performance of the loans on a pool basis when estimating the contingent liability. Subsequent to initial recognition, the Risk Safeguard Fund payable is measured at the greater of the amount determined based on ASC 460 and the amount determined based on ASC 450. ASC 460 does not prescribe a method for subsequently measuring and recording the noncontingent guarantee liability. However, as stated in ASC 460-10-35-1, the guarantee liability should generally be reduced by recording a credit to net income as the guarantor is released from the guaranteed risk. As the risk is reduced as each monthly payment is made, a systematic and rational amortization method based on when the payments are made may be appropriate. Risk Safeguard Fund payable is recognized by a systematic and rational amortization method, i.e. over the terms of the underlying loans, as “Gain on guarantee liabilities, net” on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. At the end of each reporting period on a portfolio basis, when the aggregate contingent liability required to be recognized under ASC 450 exceeds the balance of Risk Safeguard Fund payable, the Group records the excess against “Gain on guarantee liabilities, net” on its Consolidated Statements of Operations. Risk Safeguard Fund receivable is recognized and measured at inception at fair value. For loans with original terms greater than 12 months, the Group determines a significant financing component exists in the arrangements. The discount rate, which reflects the credit risk of the customers, was used in adjusting the Risk Safeguard Fund receivable at inception. Interest income resulting from the significant financing component is recorded as “Interest and financial services income” on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether there is any indicator of impairment to the Risk Safeguard Fund receivable as discussed in Note 2(g). An impairment loss is recorded if the carrying amounts of the Risk Safeguard Fund receivable exceed the expected collections. The following table sets forth the activities of the Group’s obligations associated with the Risk Safeguard Fund for the year ended December 31, 2018:
(m) Guarantee derivative liabilities For the off-balance sheet loans funded by certain other Institutional Funding Partners such as third-party commercial banks or consumer finance companies, the Group is obligated to compensate the commercial banks or consumer finance companies for the principal and interest repayment of the defaulted loans in case of Borrowers’ default, and full interest repayment according to the loan terms in the event that the Borrowers early repay their loans. Therefore, the Group effectively provides guarantees to the commercial banks or consumer finance companies that include credit risk and prepayment risk. In order to determine the accounting treatment of the guarantees, the Group considered the criteria of scope exception under ASC 815‑10‑15‑58. In order to qualify for this scope exception, the financial guarantee contracts must meet all three of the following criteria: (a) provide for payments to be made solely to reimburse the guaranteed party for failure of the debtor to satisfy its required payment obligations either at prescriptive payment dates or accelerated payment dates as a result of the occurrence of an event of default or notice of acceleration being made to the debtor by the creditor; (b) payment be made only if the debtor’s obligation to make payments as a result of conditions as described in (a) is past due; and (c) the guaranteed party is, as a precondition in the contract for receiving payment of any claim under the guarantee, exposed to the risk of non‑payment both at inception and throughout its term either through direct legal ownership or through a back‑to‑back arrangement. As the guarantee provided by the Group does not solely reimburse these commercial banks or consumer finance companies for failure of the Borrowers to satisfy required payment obligations, but also the future interest in the event of early repayment by the Borrowers, the scope exception under ASC 815-10-15-58(a) is not met. Therefore, these contracts are accounted for as a derivative under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and are recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as either assets or liabilities and recorded at fair value.
Derivative assets and liabilities within the scope of ASC 815 are required to be recorded at fair value at inception and remeasured at fair value on an ongoing basis in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. Therefore, the financial guarantee derivative liabilities will be subsequently marked to market at the end of each reporting period with gains and losses recognized as change in fair value of financial guarantee derivatives. The estimated fair value of the financial guarantee derivative liabilities is determined by the Group based on a discounted cash flow model, with reference to estimates of cumulative default rates, margins on cost of comparable companies and discount rates, using industry standard valuation techniques with the assistance of an independent valuation firm.
(n) Revenue recognition On January 1, 2018, the Group adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, using the modified retrospective method for all contracts not completed as of the date of adoption. The Group considered relevant accounting guidance and concluded that arrangements for its on-balance sheet loans are out of scope of ASC 606. Therefore, “Interest and financial services income” and “Other revenue” included in “Financial services income” on the Consolidated Statements of Operations should continue to be accounted for in accordance with ASC 310, Receivables. Other revenue streams for the year ended December 31, 2018 were presented under ASC 606, while comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services, net of value-added tax. The Group identifies its contracts with customers and all performance obligations within those contracts. The Group then determines the transaction price and allocates the transaction price to the performance obligations within the Group’s contracts with customers, recognizing revenue when, or as, the Group satisfies its performance obligations. For considerations with original payment terms greater than 12 months, the Group determines a significant financing component exists in the arrangements. The discount rate, which reflects the credit risk of the customers, is used in adjusting the consideration at inception for revenue recognition. Interest income resulting from a significant financing component is recorded as “Interest and financial services income” on the Group’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Group recognized a cumulative effect of approximately RMB209.5 million as an increase to the opening balances of retained earnings on January 1, 2018, as a result of the initial application of ASC 606. For the year ended December 31, 2018, the adoption of ASC 606 resulted in an increase in operating revenue of approximately RMB826.1 million as compared with ASC 605, Revenue Recognition, that was in effect in prior periods. The impact primarily resulted from the earlier recognition of revenue under ASC 606 for “Loan facilitation and servicing fees” collectible in monthly installments related to the Group’s off-balance sheet loans. The Group provides the loan facilitation and matching services and post-origination services as multiple deliverable arrangements. Under ASC 605, service fees collectible in monthly installments were considered contingent and, therefore, were not allocable to different deliverables until the contingency was resolved (i.e., upon receipt of the monthly service fees). Under ASC 606, service fees collectible in monthly installments are considered variable consideration which is contingent on a future event occurring. The Group considers the constraint on variable consideration and only recognizes revenue to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. Revenue is recognized when each of the performance obligations is satisfied at a point in time or over time separately using the total estimated consideration allocated to the different performance obligations based on their relative fair value. Revenue from loan facilitation and matching services is recognized upon successful matching of the Borrowers with various funding parties, and revenue from post-origination services is recognized over the terms of the related contracts. The following table sets forth the cumulative effect of the changes on the Group's Consolidated Balance Sheet as of January 1, 2018 due to the adoption of ASC 606:
