Loan quality trended higher within both segments, demonstrating the efficacy of our strategic approach. As our Puhui loan balance increasingly represents loans enabled under the 100% guarantee model, we anticipate the ongoing shift will drive further enhancements to our take rate going forward. Furthermore, as we continue to execute our strategy of obtaining and utilizing strong licenses to bolster our business, we expect our licenses will help us improve our funding costs, product diversity, and capital management efficiency. Looking ahead, we will seek to deepen our synergies with Ping An Group, leveraging their brand reputation, technological resources, and extensive network to strengthen our market position. These initiatives, combined with our direct sales force and ongoing emphasis on operational caution, uniquely position us to support China’s small and micro enterprise economy. We are encouraged by our progress to date, and remain committed to drive persistent, high-quality growth for our customers and our shareholders.”

Mr. Gregory Gibb, Co-Chief Executive Officer of Lufax, commented, “Our ongoing emphasis on operational refinements helped us strengthen our business during the second quarter. Our disciplined approach to credit standards led to enhancements in asset quality, with the C-M3 flow rate of Puhui loans improving to 0.9% and the NPL ratio for consumer finance loans decreasing to 1.4%. Meanwhile, the implementation of our 100% guarantee model for Puhui loans has positively impacted the take rate on our outstanding balance, which reached 9.3% this quarter. Our consumer finance segment also continued to grow, with a 23.6% year-over-year increase in new loan sales, representing 49% of total new loan sales in the quarter. Our prudent approach and ongoing operational refinements will be key as we pursue sustainable future growth.”

Mr. Alston Peiqing Zhu, Chief Financial Officer of Lufax, commented, “During the second quarter, our leverage remained low, and our two main operating entities have maintained their strong capital positions. Our guarantee subsidiary’s leverage ratio is stable at 2.4x, still comfortably below the 10x regulatory limit. At the same time, our consumer finance company has a healthy 14.7% capital adequacy ratio, surpassing the 10.5% regulatory requirement. Amidst a complex economic environment, we are seeing positive trends in asset quality and notable growth in consumer finance. We remain steadfast in our disciplined approach, aiming to construct a resilient platform for enduring success and shareholder value creation.”

Technology platform-based income was RMB1,999 million (US$275 million) in the second quarter of 2024, compared to RMB4,076 million in the same period of 2023, representing a decrease of 51.0%, due to 1) the decrease of retail credit service fees due to the decrease in loan balance and 2) the decrease of referral and other technology platform-based income due to the Company’s exit from the Lujintong[6] business that it had previously conducted.Net interest income was RMB2,716 million (US$374 million) in the second quarter of 2024, compared to RMB3,367 million in the same period of 2023, representing a decrease of 19.3%, mainly due to the decrease in loan balance, partially offset by the increase of net interest income from the Company’s consumer finance business.Guarantee income was RMB850 million (US$117 million) in the second quarter of 2024, compared to RMB1,149 million in the same period of 2023, representing a decrease of 26.0%, primarily due to the decrease in loan balance and a lower average fee rate.Other income was RMB318 million (US$44 million) in the second quarter of 2024, compared to other income of RMB310 million in the same period of 2023. The increase was mainly due to the increased account management fees driven by improved collection performance.Investment income was RMB94 million (US$13 million) in the second quarter of 2024, compared to RMB370 million in the same period of 2023, mainly due to the increased losses associated with certain investment assets.

—————————

[1] The take rate of retail credit enablement business is calculated by dividing the aggregated amount of loan enablement service fees, post-origination service fees, net interest income (excluding revenue from PAObank and LUAN credit subsidiaries), guarantee income and the penalty fees and account management fees by the average outstanding balance of loans enabled for each period.

[2] C-M3 flow rate estimates the percentage of current loans that will become non-performing at the end of three months, and is defined as the product of (i) the loan balance that is overdue from 1 to 29 days as a percentage of the total current loan balance of the previous month, (ii) the loan balance that is overdue from 30 to 59 days as a percentage of the loan balance that was overdue from 1 to 29 days in the previous month, and (iii) the loan balance that is overdue from 60 to 89 days as a percentage of the loan balance that was overdue from 30 days to 59 days in the previous month. Loans from legacy products and consumer finance subsidiary are excluded from the flow rate calculation.

[3] DPD 30+ delinquency rate refers to the outstanding balance of loans for which any payment is 30 to 179 calendar days past due divided by the outstanding balance of loans. Loans from legacy products and consumer finance subsidiary are excluded from the calculation.

[4] DPD 90+ delinquency rate refers to the outstanding balance of loans for which any payment is 90 to 179 calendar days past due divided by the outstanding balance of loans. Loans from legacy products and consumer finance subsidiary are excluded from the calculation.

[5] Non-performing loan ratio for consumer finance loans is calculated by using the outstanding balance of consumer finance loans for which any payment is 91 or more calendar days past due and not written off, and certain restructured loans, divided by the outstanding balance of consumer finance loans.

[6] Lujintong was a platform the company launched in 2019, aiming to help its financial institution partners to acquire borrowers directly through dispersed sourcing nationwide. The company downscaled the operations of Lujintong in 2023 and ceased its operation by the end of April 2024.

TOTAL EXPENSES

Total expenses decreased by 20% to RMB6,341 million (US$873 million) in the second quarter of 2024 from RMB7,957 million in the same period of 2023. This decrease was mainly due to the decrease in sales and marketing expenses by 46% to RMB1,372 million (US$189 million) in the second quarter of 2024 from RMB2,540 million in the same period of 2023. Total expenses excluding credit impairment losses, finance costs and other (gains)/losses decreased by 30% to RMB3,485 million (US$480 million) in the second quarter of 2024 from RMB4,954 million in the same period of 2023.

Sales and marketing expenses decreased by 46.0% to RMB1,372 million (US$189 million) in the second quarter of 2024 from RMB2,540 million in the same period of 2023. The decrease was mainly due to 1) the decreased loan-related expenses as a result of the decrease in loan balance and 2) decreased retention expenses and referral expenses from platform service attributable to the Company’s exit from the Lujintong business that it had previously conducted.General and administrative expenses increased by 3.5% to RMB511 million (US$70 million) in the second quarter of 2024 from RMB493 million in the same period of 2023, mainly due to the increased investment in newly acquired businesses.Operation and servicing expenses decreased by 15.8% to RMB1,327 million (US$183 million) in the second quarter of 2024 from RMB1,576 million in the same period of 2023, due to the Company’s expense control measures and decrease of loan balance, partially offset by increased commission associated with improved collection performance.Technology and analytics expenses decreased by 20.0% to RMB275 million (US$38 million) in the second quarter of 2024 from RMB344 million in the same period of 2023, primarily due to the Company’s expense control measures.Credit impairment losses decreased by 14.6% to RMB2,560 million (US$352 million) in the second quarter of 2024 from RMB2,998 million in the same period of 2023, mainly due to the decrease in actual losses of loans as a result of the improvement of credit performance, partially offset by the upfront provision from loans under the 100% guarantee model.Finance costs decreased by 90.2% to RMB13 million (US$2 million) in the second quarter of 2024 from RMB136 million in the same period of 2023, mainly due to the decrease of interest expenses as a result of repayment of C-Round Convertible Promissory Notes and other debts, partially offset by the decrease of interest income from bank deposits.Other losses were RMB282 million (US$39 million) in the second quarter of 2024, compared to other gains of RMB130 million in the same period of 2023, mainly due to the increase of foreign exchange losses and losses associated with certain risk assets.

NET LOSS

Net loss was RMB730 million (US$100 million) in the second quarter of 2024, compared to a net profit of RMB1,004 million in the same period of 2023, as a result of the aforementioned factors.

Suturing workshop

LUBBOCK, Texas, Oct. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Dr. Thanapoom “Mo” Boonipat, plastic surgeon and founder of FacePlus Plastic Surgery Institute in Lubbock, led a hands-on suturing workshop and career Q&A session for premed students at Texas Tech University. The event was organized by Women in STEM at Texas Tech University.

During the workshop, students practiced suturing fundamentals on suture pads using surgical instruments, with Dr. Boonipat demonstrating technique and coaching students individually. The session also included an open discussion about the path to a career in medicine, including medical school, residency training, and choosing a surgical specialty.

“Every surgeon remembers the first time they held a needle driver. Giving premed students that experience early — along with honest answers about the road ahead — can make the path into medicine feel real and reachable. I was glad to spend the afternoon with such motivated students.” — Dr. Thanapoom Boonipat

“Organizations like Women in STEM do important work connecting young women with mentors and hands-on experience in fields where they are still underrepresented, including surgery. FacePlus is proud to support that effort here in our own community in Lubbock.” — Dr. Thanapoom Boonipat

Women in STEM is a Texas Tech University student organization that supports women pursuing undergraduate and graduate studies in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Events like this connect students with practicing professionals and give them early, practical exposure to clinical skills.

Dr. Boonipat is a plastic and craniofacial surgeon. His training includes an integrated plastic surgery residency at Mayo Clinic and a craniofacial, maxillofacial, and facial aesthetics fellowship at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital in Taiwan, following medical school at Dartmouth and undergraduate study in biomedical engineering at Johns Hopkins. He founded FacePlus Plastic Surgery Institute in Lubbock in 2024.

LexisNexis Coplogic Solutions Introduces Field Clarity for LexisNexis® Desk Officer Reporting System (DORS) at IACP 2026

Published

on

By

A new, modern DORS and Field Clarity, the First AI-Guided Smartphone Video Assistant, Enhances Community Experience and Helps Improve Evidence, Case Building

ORLANDO, Fla., Oct. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — LexisNexis® Coplogic™ Solutions today announced its modernized LexisNexis® Desk Officer Reporting System (DORS) community online reporting solution and the addition of DORS with Field Clarity, an AI-guided video assistant designed to improve field documentation accuracy and enable faster resolution by law enforcement agencies (LEAs). Field Clarity is designed to help community members submit reports to their local LEAs using DORS via intuitive step-by-step instructions. A hands-on experience for DORS with Field Clarity will be available for demonstration during the 2026 International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) annual conference.

“Agencies generally look to strategic partners like us not just for technology, but also for relief, reinforcement, and credibility across three tightly connected challenges: public expectation, workforce strain and digital evidence overload,” said Jason LaRue, associate vice president, LexisNexis Coplogic Solutions. “Our modernized LexisNexis Desk Officer Reporting System (DORS) helps agencies improve officer safety along with community member experiences. Field Clarity strengthens video evidence quality and digital evidence management to reduce friction and alleviate strain on a challenged workforce.”

Key Highlights
Integrated into LexisNexis® Desk Officer Reporting System (DORS), Field Clarity is the first AI-Guided video assistant for community member online reporting that:

Transforms data capture from passive intake into intelligent, guided capture to help create more positive officer and civilian mobile-first experiencesDrives more accurate field documentation, evidence and case building to help with faster resolution and enhanced public safetyBenefits civilians submitting reports with intuitive, step-by-step instructions, almost like having a digital assistant with them in real timeBenefits officers by bringing video, photos and scanned data together for a clearer picture of an event without the need to track down additional details

How the DORS with Field Clarity Solution Works
DORS allows each law enforcement agency to collect information directly from civilians on more than 200 incident types based on the needs of their community. DORS and Field Clarity make the filing of an online report experience easier by guiding users intuitively through each step of the process on their smartphone device, similar to having a personal digital assistant. Instead of asking a driver, for example, to fill out forms and guess what’s needed, the Field Clarity conversational interface prompts them to scan their driver’s license, capture a VIN or record a short walkaround video explaining what happened during the incident, all while capturing the data necessary to complete the report.

For civilians, being able to easily film on-scene evidence means less confusion and need for reentries or follow-up by the sworn officer responsible for approving reports. For officers, the benefits include cleaner, more complete accident reports and less time spent requesting and gathering additional details. With reports fed directly into the agency’s Record Management System (RMS), law enforcement also benefits from more efficient workflows and stronger documented cases for their investigators. DORS is used by nearly 600 agencies in North America, saving agencies approximately 900,000 personnel hours and $90 million annually*

“Trust in law enforcement is built one interaction at a time. Every opportunity for a community member to engage with their police department matters, including something as routine as filing a report,” said Sarah E. Connolly, co-founder of Guardian Communications, FBI-LEEDA instructor and retired Baltimore Police lieutenant and PIO. “When technology makes that process easier, improves the quality of information collected and supports a more responsive agency, it has the potential to do more than improve efficiency. It can help strengthen the relationship between law enforcement and the communities they serve.”

LexisNexis Coplogic Solutions delivers solutions and capabilities that can create a clearer line of sight from the field to law enforcement leadership, strengthening the connection between daily operations, workforce support, data management and community trust. DORS with Field Clarity is available through LexisNexis® Command Center, a single access point to the LexisNexis Coplogic Solutions data and analytics solutions suite, including LexisNexis®  BuyCrash®, LexisNexis® eCrash and LexisNexis® eCitation solutions. Coplogic Solutions also offers Unified Performance Dashboards for crash and citation mapping and illustrated visualizations, which connect field data with contextual insight in a single, coherent view – so law enforcement leaders can better understand and more confidently explain to their communities not just what is happening in near-real time, but also why.
