For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, our loan facilitation volume increased 58.7% year-over-year while net revenue grew 67.1% year-over-year."
"Our success in 2023 was thanks to our focus to remain committed to expanding partnerships with institutions, diversifying our funding sources, and enhancing our risk resilience. At the same time, we optimized our service and borrower structures. Among the year's primary initiatives, we extensively leveraged artificial intelligence (AI) technology across various aspects of our business, including customer acquisition. We continued our efforts to expand collaboration with partners, optimize user portfolio structure, and improve risk identification, while enhancing management efficiency. These initiatives enabled us to achieve robust growth in the midst of tightening regulations and increasing macroeconomic uncertainties. Taken together, these steps further strengthened our solid foundation for future sustainable development.
Thanks to these positive results, we were pleased to have declared two cash dividends each of US$0.40 per American depositary share to shareholders over the past nine months. The total aggregate amount of cash distributed was approximately US$42.7 million, representing 25% of net income after tax of the Company in fiscal year 2022. In 2024, we expect to continue returning more value to shareholders by maintaining or increasing dividend when market conditions improve.
Looking ahead, we expect our growth and success to continue as we accelerate global business expansion, further diversify funding sources, and deepen the strategic application of AI technology. We firmly believe that these initiatives, among others, will enable us to maintain a strong competitive position in the market, sustain our lending leadership, and build long-term shareholder value as we move into 2024 and beyond."
