SHENZHEN, China, March 19, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LexinFintech Holdings Ltd. (“Lexin” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: LX), a leading technology-empowered personal financial service enabler in China, today announced its unaudited financial results for the quarter ended December 31, 2025. Mr. Jay Wenjie Xiao, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Lexin, commented, “The fourth quarter marked an important transition for us as we adapted to the new regulatory framework. Amid heightened industry risk volatility, our proactive compliance efforts and disciplined risk management enabled us to secure a stable transition, while balancing business scale and overall asset quality. Despite the complex macro environment in the fourth quarter, we concluded 2025 with robust full-year results. For the full year of 2025, net profit stood at RMB1.7 billion, representing a year-over-year increase of 52.4%. These results underscore the fundamental resilience and diversity of our unique business ecosystem. Going forward, we believe that the market will continue to consolidate toward leading, compliant platforms with prudent risk management. Leveraging our unique business ecosystem, we are well-positioned to capture potential opportunities as the industry enters this new stage of high-quality development. We also remain deeply committed to enhancing shareholder returns. In accordance with our dividend policy, our board of directors has approved a dividend of US$0.188 per ADS, representing 30% of net income from the second half of 2025. In addition to cash dividends, we have cumulatively repurchased US$39 million worth of ADSs as of the date of this announcement. Furthermore, my personal US$10 million share purchase plan has been fully implemented. We will continue to explore various avenues to deliver sustainable value to our shareholders.” Mr. James Zheng, Chief Financial Officer of Lexin, commented, “During the fourth quarter, as we navigated elevated risk volatility and the evolving regu...

Nomura Holdings Inc. ’s wholesale business head expects the Bank of Japan to raise interest rates next month, even as the effects of the Iran war cloud the outlook for the economy. The Middle East conflict “makes it more likely that the April hike will come through,” Christopher Willcox said in a Bloomberg Television interview on Thursday. The Bank of Japan kept its benchmark interest rate at 0.75% as expected on Thursday. Nomura had already anticipated the BOJ to raise rates in April as part of its efforts to bring monetary policy back to normal after years of unprecedented easing, Willcox said. Like its counterparts around the world, Japan’s central bank is grappling with the risk of faster inflation and slower economic growth as oil prices soar. “Japan had its monetary policy on a normalization path anyway so we’ve been expecting to see them raising rates this year,” Willcox said. “This is an additional data point that’s very difficult for them.” Willcox isn’t so sure that the Bank of Japan will continue to raise rates after April, given the uncertainties surrounding the situation in the Middle East. One factor that Japan’s policymakers will need to consider is the impact of the weakening yen on inflation. “For sure the currency level is a sensitive thing for Japan, and it feeds into some of the inflationary concerns that existed before you had any of the Middle East events,” Willcox said. BOJ Says Will Raise Rates if Outlook Stays on Track After Hold Japanese Unions Secure Solid Wage Gains Before BOJ Meets Japan to Release 80 Million Barrels of Oil From Reserves Willcox oversees the trading and investment banking operations at Japan’s largest brokerage. He was recently named deputy president , a position that he will share with three others when it takes effect on April 1. His division is set for another strong set of results in the fiscal fourth quarter. Revenue at the wholesale business was up more than 20% from a year earlier through March 13, the company sai...

葵盛圍地盤塌天秤一死 工會:切口平整或涉超重、金屬疲勞 To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video 【有線新聞】有工會代表說天秤由40樓以上墮落,當時正在操作中。 工業傷亡權益會總幹事蕭倩文:「據了解天秤(折斷部分)長約40米,闊約15米。根據地盤給予的資料,天秤每星期會檢查,今早都有檢驗過,我們要求警方和勞工處盡快徹查意外原因。」 香港建造業總工會理事長周思傑:「從相片可見,天秤倒塌的切斷位置非常平整,我們估計有數個原因。第一,吊運時會否用力過猛?所有天秤都有荷載,如超過荷載便有危險性,會否在吊東西時鋁模被石屎卡住,用力過猛引致折斷?會否金屬疲勞亦有可能,或者會否是燒焊位日子久了、做得不好?亦不排除。」
