Chairman, CEO and CFO Comments

"In 2023, we achieved remarkable milestones in loss reduction." Mr. Chongfeng Shen, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented, "Net loss attributable to shareholders improved to RMB363 million from RMB872 million in the prior year. Multiple factors have contributed to this improvement, including our proactive adjustment to the product mix, continued cost control and improvement in operational efficiency, and effective allocation of resources to research and development."

Mr. Chongfeng Shen further commented, "In 2023, we continued our dedication in product upgrades. In order to improve user experience and application operation effectiveness, we further broadened application scenarios by refining our algorithm, expanding our system's compatibility and optimizing our architecture structure. These efforts have been recognized. For example, our Omni-Channel Agent Solution was listed among "Excellent Cases in Fintech Innovation and Application" in the third "Jinxintong" event hosted by China Academy of Information and Communication Technology. We also won the IDC FinTech "Global Top 100 FinTech Companies" award and the KPMG "China FinTech Enterprise Excellence Award"."

"Scientific and technological revolution will continue to deepen in 2024, and AI, as a new productivity initiative, will lead the high-speed industry-wide development. We firmly believe that the financial industry will provide the best practice scenarios for "AI plus" initiatives and is strategically important in training and developing new productivity initiatives. OneConnect is committed to upgrading and transforming the financial industry with technology innovations, focusing on serving premium-plus customers and products optimization to meet financial institutions' core demands to improve operational efficiency. Supported by intelligent voice robots, Omni-channel Agent Solution, and other products designed with these new productivity initiatives, our solutions enable financial institutions to improve efficiency, enhance service quality, reduce costs and mitigate risks."

"We achieved rapid growth in overseas business, which significantly contributed to our revenue. Our revenue contributed by overseas customers (exclude contribution from Ping An OneConnect Bank (Hong Kong) Limited ("PAOB")) increased by 37.2% to RMB182 million in 2023 from RMB133 million in 2022. Revenue proportion from overseas customers in third-party customers increased to 15.7% in 2023 from 9.7% in 2022. Our products are highly valued by overseas customers. In 2024, we will remain proactive to develop overseas markets and expand the overseas sales network."

"We are confident that the series of economic stimulus measures launched in China will positively boost the economy. However, we also recognize that it will take time for our industry to fully recover in the short term. In 2024, we will continue to be prudent and focus on boosting revenue from third-party customers as well as improving margins." Mr. Chongfeng Shen further supplemented.

Mr. Yongtao Luo, Chief Financial Officer, commented, "I am pleased to share that our efforts to manage costs and drive operational efficiencies have yielded significant results, demonstrating promising path to profitability. In the fourth quarter of 2023, our net margin to shareholders improved from -14.3% to -8.8% compared with the same period in 2022, while in the full year of 2023, our net margin to shareholders improved from -19.5% to -9.9% compared with last year. This not only demonstrates our commitment to financial health but also indicates a positive trajectory towards profitability. I am also delighted to announce that our non-IFRS gross margin in 2023 has remained relatively stable year-over-year with a slight increase from 40.1% to 40.3%. Free cash1 amounted to RMB2,072 million as of December 31, 2023 (December 31, 2022: RMB2,082 million).These results validate our commitment to delivering value to our shareholders and maintaining a resilient financial position amidst changing market conditions. Looking ahead, we remain focused on enhancing revenue structure. We are confident in our ability to deliver sustainable growth and long-term value."

On November 13, 2023, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement with Lufax Holding Ltd (the "Purchaser"), and PAOB, an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company incorporated in Hong Kong with limited liability, for the disposal of the Company's virtual bank business at a consideration of HK$933 million in cash (the "Disposal"). The Disposal has been approved by the audit committee of the board of directors and the shareholders of the Company, and the closing is subject to the fulfilment or waiver (as applicable) of each of the conditions precedent.

1  Free cash equals the Company's cash and cash equivalents (exclusive of cash and cash equivalents of PAOB) plus financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.

3  Intersegment eliminations and adjustments are included under technology solution segment.

Revenue in the fourth quarter of 2023 decreased by 25.6% to RMB925 million from RMB1,242 million compared with the same period in the prior year, primarily due to a decline in transaction-based and support revenue. Implementation revenue decreased by 31.7% on a year-over-year basis to RMB216 million, mainly due to the sluggish demands from new customers recovering from the pandemic impact. In terms of transaction-based and support revenue, revenue from business origination services decreased by 66.4% on a year-over-year basis to RMB24 million, primarily due to declined transaction volumes and the Company's proactive actions of phasing out of lower value products in the Digital Banking segment. Revenue from risk management services decreased by 16.7% on a year-over-year basis to RMB93 million, mainly due to reduced transaction volume in banking loan solutions because of slower-than-expected recovery of banking activities. Revenue from operation support services decreased by 29.3% on a year-over-year basis to RMB194 million, which was primarily caused by reduced demand from insurance and banking customers. Revenue from cloud services platform was RMB334 million, decreased by 5.6% on a year-over-year basis due to lower demand. Revenue from other services decreased by 89.1% on a year-over-year basis to RMB8 million due to lower demand for auto eco-system related services.

Use of Unaudited Non-IFRS Financial Measures

The unaudited consolidated financial information is prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards ("IFRS") issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). Non-IFRS measures are used in gross profit and gross margin, adjusted to exclude non-cash items, which consist of amortization of intangible assets recognized in cost of revenue, depreciation of property and equipment recognized in cost of revenue, and share-based compensation expenses recognized in cost of revenue. OneConnect's management regularly review non-IFRS gross profit and non-IFRS gross margin to assess the performance of our business. By excluding non-cash items, these financial metrics allow OneConnect's management to evaluate the cash conversion of one dollar revenue on gross profit. OneConnect uses these non-IFRS financial measures to evaluate its ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. OneConnect believes that non-IFRS financial information, when taken collectively, is helpful to investors because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance, facilitates period-to-period comparisons of results of operations, and assists in comparisons with other companies, many of which use similar financial information. OneConnect also believes that presentation of the non-IFRS financial measures provides useful information to its investors regarding its results of operations because it allows investors greater transparency to the information used by OneConnect's management in its financial and operational decision making so that investors can see through the eyes of the OneConnect's management regarding important financial metrics that the management uses to run the business as well as allowing investors to better understand OneConnect's performance. However, non-IFRS financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, and should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with IFRS, and may be different from similarly-titled non-IFRS measures used by other companies. In light of the foregoing limitations, you should not consider non-IFRS financial measure in isolation from or as an alternative to the financial measure prepared in accordance with IFRS. Whenever OneConnect uses a non-IFRS financial measure, a reconciliation is provided to the most closely applicable financial measure stated in accordance with IFRS. You are encouraged to review the related IFRS financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-IFRS financial measures to their most directly comparable IFRS financial measures. For more information on non-IFRS financial measures, please see the table captioned "Reconciliation of IFRS and non-IFRS results (Unaudited)" set forth at the end of this press release.
