Analysis · CNF · Finance
The first-half 2026 results reveal a sharp deterioration in credit quality. Net loss widened nearly tenfold to RMB399.5 million (US$58.9 million) from RMB40.4 million a year earlier, driven by an eleven-fold jump in credit-loss provisions to RMB340.7 million. Delinquency ratio climbed to 63.4% from 50.3% at year-end, while cash reserves fell to RMB252.3 million. Against a market cap of roughly US$14.9 million, the loss is multiples of the company's entire equity value, underscoring severe balance-sheet stress. Management is shrinking the loan book and cutting costs aggressively, but the credit deterioration suggests the existing portfolio is deteriorating faster than recoveries can offset.
