Despite the pressure on the market performance, the company's 3Q23 revenue recorded steady growth compared with the previous month, which we believe is mainly due to the steady growth of the company's software sales and maintenance service revenue to B-end customers such as securities companies (1H23 contributes 77% of the company's income). In terms of key operating indicators, the cash received by 3Q23 for selling goods and providing services is + 12% / month-on-month + 52% to 100 million yuan, and contract liabilities-accounts received in advance are + 18% / month-on-month-6.5% to 130 million yuan.

The total investment-related income (investment income + fair value change income) turned positive from loss to 12.37 million yuan, mainly because 3Q22 reduced the fair value of three debt investment products that did not normally pay principal and interest to 0 and recorded a loss of investment income of 99 million yuan. Financial income is-17% / month-on-month-16% to 11.33 million yuan; operating profit excluding investment income and financial expenses is + 33% / month-on-month + 32% to 66.12 million yuan.
