NOAH HOLDINGS LIMITED ANNOUNCES UNAUDITED

FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR THE THIRD QUARTER OF 2024

 

SHANGHAI, November 27, 2024 — Noah Holdings Limited ("Noah" or the "Company") (NYSE: NOAH and HKEX: 6686), a leading and pioneer wealth management service provider offering comprehensive one-stop advisory services on global investment and asset allocation primarily for Mandarin-speaking high-net-worth investors, today announced its unaudited financial results for the third quarter of 2024.

 

THIRD QUARTER 2024 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

 

Net revenues for the third quarter of 2024 were RMB683.7 million (US$97.4 million), an 8.8% decrease from the corresponding period in 2023, primarily due to a 33.0% decrease in net revenues from mainland China, which was partially offset by a 28.9% increase in net revenues from overseas.

 

Net revenues from mainland China for the third quarter of 2024 were RMB306.8 million (US$43.7 million), a 33.0% decrease from the corresponding period in 2023, primarily due to decreases of 89.9% in revenue from distribution of domestic insurance products and 17.3% in revenue from recurring service fees from RMB private equity products.

 

Net revenues from overseas for the third quarter of 2024 were RMB376.9 million (US$53.7 million), a 28.9% increase from the corresponding period in 2023, primarily due to increases of 42.5% in revenue from offshore investment products and 42.4% in revenue from insurance products, which were partially offset by a 38.8% decrease in revenue from other services provided to offshore high-net-worth investors.

Ms. Jingbo Wang, co-founder and chairwoman of Noah, commented, “I’m pleased to report a significant sequential rebound in net revenues, operating margin, and net income as the pace of our overseas expansion gains momentum and client demand for global asset allocation strengthens. Net revenues from overseas grew by 28.9% year-over-year, bolstered by ongoing investments to expand our global footprint. Our team of relationship managers directly supporting this expansion grew to 146 professionals, an increase of 89.6% year-over-year and 29.2% sequentially. We also opened our Japan office during the quarter to attract local Mandarin-speaking clients and are actively evaluating opportunities in other key potential markets such as Canada, Australia, Southeast Asia, and Europe, to capitalize on this momentum. While sluggish domestic markets continue to pose challenges, we are encouraged by initial signs of a recovery and improving client sentiment, driven by recent policies aimed at supporting the broader economy. We remain confident in the substantial potential for wealth management services tailored to global Mandarin-speaking high-net-worth investors, many of whom are currently underserved by local financial institutions. This presents us with significant opportunities to acquire new clients through our competitive global investment solutions and renowned service standards."

DISCUSSION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES

 

In addition to disclosing financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company’s earnings release contains non-GAAP financial measures excluding the effects of all forms of share-based compensation and net of tax impact, if any. See “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Results” at the end of this press release.

 

The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The financial results reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP and reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results should be carefully evaluated. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be prepared differently from and, therefore, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

 

When evaluating the Company’s operating performance in the periods presented, management reviewed the foregoing non-GAAP net income attributable to Noah shareholders and per diluted ADS and non-GAAP net margin attributable to Noah shareholders to supplement U.S. GAAP financial data. As such, the Company’s management believes that the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures provides important supplemental information to investors regarding financial and business trends relating to its results of operations in a manner consistent with that used by management.
