Summary of the Conference Call Records Company Overview - Lianlian Digital focuses on cross-border payments, accounting for approximately 70% of its business, providing multi-currency payment accounts for small and micro enterprises in China, facilitating global trade fund collection and domestic distribution. In 2024, the company is expected to process transaction volumes of 281.5 billion RMB, corresponding to a trade scale of approximately 560 billion RMB, serving about one-quarter of the Chinese export consumer goods cross-border e-commerce market [1][2][3]. Industry Characteristics - The cross-border payment industry requires global payment licenses, a comprehensive compliance payment system (KYC, anti-money laundering, trade authenticity verification), and strong service capabilities. Lianlian Digital is the only foreign company to obtain payment licenses in all 50 states in the U.S. and collaborates with several global settlement banks to provide efficient and secure payment services [1][4][5]. Competitive Landscape - The cross-border payment industry is characterized by a "three big, two small" structure, with Lianlian Digital, PingPong, and Payoneer each holding about 20% market share, while Airwallex and Worldfirst hold about 10% each. Notably, Airwallex's main business is not cross-border trade payments [1][7]. Revenue Sources and Growth - Lianlian Digital's domestic third-party online payment business has an annual transaction volume of 3 trillion RMB, contributing 30% of its revenue. The company collaborates with independent third-party ToB companies to provide differentiated payment solutions for approximately 3,000 large and medium-sized enterprises in China [2][13][26]. Financial Performance - In 2024, despite global economic pressures, Lianlian Digital achieved significant growth, with global transaction volume increasing by 63% and revenue by 23%. Domestic transaction volume grew by 65%, with revenue increasing by 57% [14][28]. Strategic Partnerships - The partnership with American Express for a clearing company has historically led to losses, but with recent capital increases from American Express, the company expects to achieve breakeven or profitability in the future, recovering approximately 1.6 billion RMB and enjoying investment returns [2][15]. Regulatory Compliance - Lianlian Digital holds relevant payment licenses in both China and the U.S., ensuring strong compliance. The company was one of the first to obtain a third-party online payment license in China and has completed all regulatory requirements [9][10]. Service Offerings - Lianlian Digital provides a one-stop solution that includes rapid matching of bank accounts in over 100 countries, covering 130 currencies, and connecting to over 100 global platforms for store setup. The company also offers logistics, digital marketing, and supply chain financial services through partnerships [11][12]. Market Challenges and Responses - In response to the U.S.-China trade war, Lianlian Digital has focused on real trade, supported new business developments (such as Web3 payments), and collaborated with the Ministry of Commerce to promote the digital transformation of offline trade [2][17]. Future Outlook - The company anticipates that the gap between transaction volume growth and revenue growth will narrow as historical small and medium customers grow into larger clients, leading to higher fee rates. The service trade sector is expected to maintain rapid growth, with Lianlian Digital taking a cautious approach to ensure compliance [21][25]. Conclusion - Lianlian Digital is well-positioned in the cross-border payment industry with a strong compliance framework, significant market share, and a comprehensive service offering. The company is adapting to market challenges and exploring new growth opportunities while maintaining a focus on regulatory compliance and customer service.
