Qifu Technology's stock plummeted 6.36% during intraday trading on Wednesday, following the release of its fourth-quarter and full-year 2025 financial results.
The sharp decline was driven by weaker quarterly profitability, with Q4 non-GAAP net income falling to 8.23 Chinese renminbi per diluted American depositary share from 13.66 renminbi a year earlier. Total net revenue for the quarter also decreased to 4.09 billion renminbi from 4.48 billion renminbi in the same period last year, missing analyst expectations of 4.51 billion renminbi.
Additionally, the company's new net income guidance of CNY 830 million to CNY 880 million for the first quarter of 2026 has raised concerns among investors about ongoing profit pressure and earnings quality, contributing to the negative sentiment during the trading session.
