Directors' Report
The directors present their report and the financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2025.
Principal Activity
The principal activity of the company is that of a UK consumer credit lending and credit technology business, subject to obtaining the relevant authorisation from the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”).
Directors
The directors who served during the period were as follows:
LU, Yao (Appointed 3 September 2024)
TALBOTT, Russell James (Appointed 15 December 2025)
GUO, Suyi (Appointed 31 October 2024 Resigned 1 May 2025)
Statement of Directors' Responsibilities
The directors are responsible for preparing the Report of the Directors and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'. Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Statement of Disclosure of Information to Auditors
So far as the directors are aware, there is no relevant audit information (as defined by Section 418 of the Companies Act 2006) of which the company's auditors are unaware, and each director has taken all the steps that she ought to have taken as a director in order to make herself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditors are aware of that information.
Independent Auditors
The auditors, HGA Citrus Limited, have indicated their willingness to continue in office and a resolution concerning their re-appointment will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting.
This report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.

Independent Auditor's Report
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of UPCREDIT LIMITED for the period ended 31 December 2025 which comprise the Statement of Income and Retained Earnings, Balance Sheet and the related notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland".
In our opinion the financial statements:
  • give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 31 December 2025 and of its profit/(loss) for the period then ended;
  • have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
  • have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law.
Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the
financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the company in accordance with the ethical
requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard,
and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit
evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting
in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions
that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a
period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant
sections of this report.
Other Information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Report of
the Directors, but does not include the financial statements and our Report of the Auditors thereon.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise
explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing
so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge
obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or
apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the
financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material
misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Page 4
Opinions on Other Matters Prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
- the information given in the Report of the Directors for the financial year for which the financial statements are
prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
- the Report of the Directors has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Matters on Which We Are Required to Report by Exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit,
we have not identified material misstatements in the Report of the Directors.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to
you if, in our opinion:
- adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from
branches not visited by us; or
- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
- certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or
- the directors were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies regime
and take advantage of the small companies' exemption from the requirement to prepare a Strategic Report or in
preparing the Report of the Directors.
Responsibilities of Directors
As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on page two, the directors are responsible
for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such
internal control as the directors determine necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the company's ability to continue as a
going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of
accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic
alternative but to do so.

Page 5
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Auditors that includes our opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with
ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are
considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic
decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks applicable to the Company and the sector in
which they operate.
We focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct impact material effect on the
financial statements, or the operations of the company which included the Companies Act 2006, taxation legislation,
data protection, anti-bribery, employment and health and safety legislation;
- Identifying and assessing the design effectiveness of controls management has in place to prevent and detect fraud;
- Understanding how those charged with governance considered and addressed the potential for override of controls;
- Challenging assumptions and judgments made by management in its significant accounting estimates;
- Assessing the extent of compliance with the relevant laws and regulations.
- Discussions with management, including consideration of known or suspected instances of non-compliance with laws
and regulations and fraud;
We identified the greatest risk of material impact on the financial statements from irregularities, including fraud, to
involve the completeness and timing of income recognition and the override of controls by management.
To address the risk of fraud in relation to revenue recognition, we:
- Performed detailed substantive testing to address completeness and accuracy of sales;
- Assessed the appropriateness and application of the accounting policy concerning income recognition; and
- Performed detailed cut-off testing either side of the balance sheet date.
To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we:
-Performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships;
-Identifying and testing journal entries, in particular those with unusual account combinations, unusual words or
unusual users
-Assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates were indicative of
potential bias;
-Investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those
leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the
more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial
statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding
irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion,
omission or misrepresentation.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting
Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Auditors.
Use Of Our Report
This report is made solely to the company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the
Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company's members those
matters we are required to state to them in a Report of the Auditors and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent
permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company's
members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Notes to the Financial Statements
1. General Information
UPCREDIT LIMITED is a private company, limited by shares, incorporated in England & Wales, registered number 15933786 . The registered office is 12 New Fetter Lane, London, United Kingdom, EC4A 1JP.
2. Statement of Compliance
The financial statements have been prepared in compliance with FRS 102 Section 1A, as it applies to
the financial statements for the period and there were no material departures from the reporting
standard.
3. Accounting Policies
3.1. Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
3.2. Going Concern Disclosure
The directors have received written confirmation that the holding company, QFIN Holdings Inc., will provide unconditional financial support to Upcredit Limited for the foreseeable future. The company therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.
3.3. Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial assets and include cash in hand and deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and are readily convertible to a known amount of cash with insignificant risk of change in value, and bank overdrafts.
3.4. Foreign Currencies
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recognised at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of
the transaction. At the end of each reporting period foreign currency monetary items are translated at
the closing rate of exchange. Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost are translated at
the rate ruling at the date of the transaction. All differences are charged to profit or loss.
3.5. Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported in the statement of comprehensive income because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The company's liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilised. Deferred tax is measured at the rates expected to apply when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
3.6. Employee Benefits
Short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount expected to be paid in
exchange for the employee's services to the company. Where employees have accrued short-term
benefits which the entity has not paid by the balance sheet date, an accrual is recognised within
creditors: amounts falling due within one year together with an associated expense in profit or loss. The
liabilities are classified as current obligations in the statement of financial position because they are
expected to be settled wholly within twelve months after the end of the period.
