Lending and Other Businesses
The Company’s lending business utilizes an advanced risk-management system to assess and facilitate short-term loans to high quality borrowers, often secured with collateral. The total amount of loans originated during the third quarter of 2020 was RMB0.1 billion, compared with RMB1.3 billion in the corresponding period of 2019 as our voluntary reduction of loan origination. Other businesses include an online financial advisory platform.
Ms. Jingbo Wang, co-founder and CEO of Noah, said, "We are very pleased to report a really strong quarter: our transaction value increased 122.2% from the third quarter in 2019 to RMB28.8 billion, driven by significantly higher portion of public securities and private equity distribution. Public securities transaction value grew to a record high of RMB20.9 billion. This indicates our continued success in our transformation to standardized products while maintaining the leading market position in private equities. We also continued to exit from single-counterparty private credit products. The total number of active clients grew 105.9% from the third quarter of 2019 to reach 20,509, benefiting from the onshore and offshore paralleled mutual fund platforms, Fund Smile and iNoah, which represents a recovery of client confidence. Noah Holdings celebrated its 10th Listing Anniversary on the NYSE a few weeks ago. We are grateful for the support the capital markets provided to us and have confidence in our continued growth in the coming decade."
THIRD QUARTER 2020 FINANCIAL RESULTS
Net Revenues
Net revenues for the third quarter of 2020 were RMB859.1 million (US$126.5 million), a 2.0% increase from the corresponding period in 2019, primarily driven by increased one-time commissions, recurring service fee revenues and performance-based income, and partially offset by decreased other service fees.
- Wealth Management Business
– Net revenues from one-time commissions for the third quarter of 2020 were RMB189.6 million (US$27.9 million), a 26.8% increase from the corresponding period in 2019 due to an increase in financial products distributed in third quarter of 2020.
– Net revenues from recurring service fees for the third quarter of 2020 were RMB380.5 million (US$56.0 million), a 19.3% increase from the corresponding period in 2019. The increase was primarily due to the service fees recognized upon liquidation of certain credit products with higher fee rates.
– Net revenues from performance-based income for the third quarter of 2020 were RMB33.7 million (US$5.0 million), a 679.3% increase from the corresponding period of 2019, primarily due to an increase in performance-based income from public securities products.
– Net revenues from other service fees for the third quarter of 2020 were RMB23.8 million (US$3.5 million), a 65.7% decrease from the corresponding period in 2019, primarily due to less value-added services Noah offers to its high net worth clients during the COVID-19 epidemic.
- Asset Management Business
– Net revenues from recurring service fees for the third quarter of 2020 were RMB179.5 million (US$26.4 million), a 10.4% decrease from the corresponding period in 2019. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in assets under management.

- Lending and Other Businesses
– Net revenues for the third quarter of 2020 were RMB9.0 million (US$1.3 million), an 84.8% decrease from the corresponding period in 2019. The decrease was primarily due to reduced loan origination since the second half of 2019 as well as the ongoing impact of COVID-19.
