Portfolio Contraction: Chailease's consolidated credit portfolio shrank by 3% year-over-year and year-to-date, reflecting slower growth across Taiwan, China, and ASEAN amid economic uncertainty and a more cautious credit approach.
Revenue & Profit Down: Consolidated revenue for the first nine months of 2025 fell 5% year-over-year to TWD 73.4 billion, and net profit dropped primarily due to lower revenue and higher credit loss provisions, especially in China.
Regional Performance: Taiwan’s profit share rose as China and ASEAN declined; China’s net profit dropped 35% due to lower revenue and increased credit losses, though new delinquency formation stabilized.
Asset Quality Mixed: Delinquency rates increased in all regions, with China’s ratio rising to 6.4% and ASEAN to 5.3%; allowance to loan portfolio ratios also ticked up.
Fee Income Pressure: Sequential fee income declines were attributed mainly to the wind-down of Taiwan’s OA used car financing channel.
Cost-to-Income Ratio: The group’s cost-to-income ratio worsened to 30% from 27% due to lower operating profit.
