The revenue-producing assets that are held by the VIE and its subsidiaries comprise mainly of machinery and electronic equipment, express delivery software the courier service operation permit, the ICP license, the road transportation operation permit, and domain name. The VIE and its subsidiaries contributed an aggregate of 66% and 65% of the Group’s consolidated revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2019, respectively, after elimination of inter-company transactions. As of June 30, 2019, there was no pledge or collateralization of the VIE and its subsidiaries’ assets that can only be used to settled obligations of the VIE and its subsidiaries.

 

Other than the amounts due to related parties (which are eliminated upon consolidation) all remaining liabilities of the VIE and its subsidiaries are without recourse to the primary beneficiary. The Company did not provide or intend to provide financial or other support not previously contractually required to the VIE and its subsidiaries during the periods presented.

In June 2019, BEST Finance transferred certain lease rental receivables to a securitization vehicle through Xinyuan Leasing Asset Backed Special Plan (the “Plan”). The Group acts as the servicer of the Plan by providing payment collection services for the underlying lease rental receivables and holds significant variable interests in the Plan through holding the subordinated tranche of asset-backed debt securities and the guarantee provided, from which the Group has the obligation to absorb losses of the Plan that could potentially be significant to the Plan. Accordingly, the Group is considered the primary beneficiary of the Plan and has consolidated the Plan’s assets, liabilities, results of operations, and cash flows in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2018 AND 2019 (CONTINUED)

(Amounts in thousands of Renminbi (“RMB”) and US dollars (“US$”)

except for number of shares and per share data)

 

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”)

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group include the financial statements of the Company, its subsidiaries, the VIE and its subsidiaries for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions between the Company, its subsidiaries, the VIE and its subsidiaries have been eliminated on consolidation.

 

Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

 

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements contain all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, operating results and cash flows of the Group for each of the periods presented. Interim period results are not necessarily indicative of results of operations or cash flows for a full-year period. The consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2018 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018.

 

The Group’s business is affected by seasonality. The Group generally generates more revenue from express delivery services and supply chain management services during Singles’ Day and Double 12 events in the fourth quarter of each year due to the increase in end consumer purchases that trigger a corresponding increase in parcel delivery volumes. In addition, due to the Chinese New Year holiday, the Group has historically generated lower revenues from all its service segments in the first quarter of each year.

 

Restricted cash

 

The Group’s restricted cash mainly represents (a) deposits held in designated bank accounts for issuance of notes payable and short term loans; (b) security deposits as required by the Group’s sortation centers and warehouses; and (c) deposits held in a designated bank account of the Plan which can only be utilized for repayment of the Series A and B tranches when there is default of the underlying lease rental receivables (Note 1). As of December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2019, the restricted cash related to the deposits held in designated bank accounts as pledged security of notes payable was RMB34,979 and RMB101,267 (US$14,751), respectively. The restricted cash related to deposits held in designated bank accounts as pledged security of short term loans are disclosed in Note 9.

except for number of shares and per share data)

 

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

Use of estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in the Group’s financial statements include, but are not limited to, allowance for doubtful accounts, fair value measurements of equity instruments with no readily determinable fair value, incremental borrowing rates for lease liabilities, standalone selling price related to lease and non-lease components in the lease arrangement, useful lives of long-lived assets, the purchase price allocation with respect to business combinations, impairment of long-lived assets and goodwill, realization of deferred tax assets, uncertain tax positions and share based compensation. Management bases the estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

 

Convenience translation

 

Amounts in U.S. dollars are presented for the convenience of the reader and are translated at the noon buying rate of 6.8650 per US$1.00 on June 28, 2019, the last business day in June 2019, in the City of New York for cable transfers of RMB as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into US$ at such rate.

 

Revenue recognition

 

Revenue is recognized when control of promised goods or services is transferred to the Group’s customers in an amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The Group presents value-added taxes as a reduction from revenues. The Group does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which the Group recognizes revenue at the amount to which it has the right to invoice for services performed.

 

The Group’s revenue recognition policies are as follows:

 

Express delivery services

 

The Group provides express services that comprise of sorting, line-haul and feeder transportation services to its franchisee service stations, which are also the Group’s customers, when parcels (under 15 kg) are dropped off by the Group’s franchisee service station customers at the Group’s first hub or sortation center.

(Amounts in thousands of Renminbi (“RMB”) and US dollars (“US$”)

except for number of shares and per share data)

 

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

Revenue recognition (Continued)

 

The Group offers an integrated service to the franchised service stations that includes last-mile delivery service to end recipients and acts as the principal that is directly responsible for all parcels sent through its network, from the point when customers drop off the parcels at the Group’s first hub or sortation center all the way through to the point when the parcels are delivered to end recipients.

 

Customers are required to prepay for express delivery services and the Group records such amounts as “customer advances and deposits and deferred revenue” in the consolidated balance sheets. The transaction price the Group earns from its customers are based on the parcel’s weight and route to the end recipient’s destination. In addition, the Group provides certain discounts, incentives and rebates based on explicitly agreed upon terms with its customers that can decrease the transaction price and estimates variable consideration based on the most likely amount to be provided. The amount of variable consideration included in the transaction price is limited to the amount that will not result in a significant revenue reversal. The Group reviews the estimate of variable consideration and updates the transaction price at the end of each reporting period as necessary. Uncertainties related to the estimates of variable consideration are resolved in a short time frame. Adjustments to variable consideration are recognized in the period the adjustments are identified and were insignificant for the periods presented.

 

The Group’s express delivery services contracts with customers include only one performance obligation. Performance obligations are generally short-term in nature and with transit days being a week or less for each parcel. The Group recognizes revenue over time as customers receive the benefit of the Group’s services as the goods are delivered from one location to another. As such, express delivery services revenue is recognized proportionally as a parcel moves from origin to destination and the related costs are recognized as incurred. The Group uses an output method of progress based on time-in-transit as it best depicts the transfer of control to the customer.

 

A minor percentage of the Group’s express delivery services are performed by its self-operated service stations for direct customers (“direct customer express delivery services”), who are the senders of the parcels. The Group is directly responsible for the parcel from the point it is received from the senders all the way through the point when the parcels are delivered to end recipients. Direct customer express delivery services revenue is recognized proportionally as parcels are transported to end recipients and the related costs are recognized as incurred.

 

Express delivery services revenue also includes initial non-refundable franchise fees. The initial non-refundable franchise fees are recognized over the franchise period due to the franchisees’ rights to access the Group’s logos and brand names which are considered symbolic intellectual properties. The initial non-refundable franchise fees are negotiated under a separate agreement and represent a very small percentage of revenue for all periods presented.

Freight delivery services

 

Similar to express delivery services, the Group provides freight services that comprise of sorting, line-haul and feeder transportation services mainly to its franchisees, which are also the Group’s customers. The Group offers an integrated service to franchisee service stations that includes last-mile delivery service to end recipients and acts as the principal that is directly responsible for all shipments sent through its network, from the point when customers drop off the shipments at the Group’s first hub or sortation center all the way through to the point when the shipments are delivered to end recipients.

 

Customers are required to prepay for freight delivery services and the Group records such amounts as “customer advances and deposits and deferred revenue” in the consolidated balance sheets. The transaction price the Group earns from its customers are based on the shipment’s weight and route to the end recipient’s destination.

 

The Group’s freight delivery services contracts with customers include only one performance obligation. Performance obligations are generally short-term in nature with transit days being a week or less for each shipment. The Group recognizes revenue over time as customers receive the benefit of the Group’s services as the goods are shipped from one location to another. As such, freight delivery services revenue is recognized proportionally as a shipment moves from origin to destination and the related costs are recognized as incurred. The Group uses an output method of progress based on time-in-transit as it best depicts the transfer of control to the customer.

 

Freight delivery services revenue also includes initial non-refundable franchise fees. The initial non-refundable franchise fees are recognized over the franchise period due to the franchisees’ rights to access the Group’s logos and brand names which are considered symbolic intellectual properties. The initial non-refundable franchise fees are negotiated under a separate agreement and represent a very small percentage of revenue for all periods presented.

Supply chain management services

 

The Group provide warehouse management, order fulfillment services and transportation services to its offline and online enterprise customers (“enterprise customers”). The Group enters into supply chain warehouse management service agreements with these customers to provide warehouse management and order fulfillment services through its self-operated order fulfillment centers and also enters into transportation services agreements to provide transportation services. The majority of the these contracts having an effective term of one year. Order fulfillment services revenue is generated from various service fees charged on a volume basis in connection with various order fulfillment services, which may include in-warehouse processing, order fulfillment, express delivery, freight delivery and other value-added services. Pursuant to the warehouse management service agreements and transportation services agreements, enterprise customers have the right to terminate the contracts by providing a one-month advance notice. Therefore, even though the contract term for the majority of the contracts is one year, due to the termination rights provided to enterprise customers, warehouse management service agreements and transportation services agreements are considered month-to-month service contracts. Enterprise customers are billed on a monthly basis and make payments according to their granted credit terms which ranges from 5 to 120 days.

 

Under some situations, enterprise customers may request to add a transportation route or increase the warehouse rental space by entering into a separate contract with the Group. The additional services are considered distinct and the service fees are priced at their standalone selling prices, i.e. they cannot be purchased at a significant or incremental discount. Therefore, the Group accounts for this type of contract modification as a separate contract and the revenue recognized to date on the original contract is not adjusted.

 

The warehouse management service agreements comprise various service offerings that can be purchased at the option of the customer. Although the service options are interrelated, none of the services modify the other services and they are not integrated to provide a combined output. Each of the service options is substantive and the enterprise customers cannot purchase each additional service at a significant and incremental discount. Therefore, each service is accounted for as a separate performance obligation. The Group is the primary obligor and does not outsource any portion of the order fulfillment services to supply chain franchisee partners. The Group recognizes warehouse management and order fulfillment services revenue upon completion of the services as that is when the Group transfers control of the services and has right to payment.

 

For transportation services, the Group provides the service of arranging transportation and coordinating shipments to and from locations designated by its enterprise customers. Each transportation order for delivery of goods from origin to destination is considered a performance obligation. Performance obligations are generally short-term in nature with transit days being a week or less for each shipment. The Group recognizes transportation services revenue over time as customers receive the benefit of  the services as the goods are shipped from origin to destination. As such, transportation services revenue is recognized proportionally as a shipment moves from origin to destination and the related costs are recognized as incurred. The Group use an output method of progress based on time-in-transit as it best depicts the transfer of control to the customer.

 

A small percentage of revenue is also earned from supply chain franchisee partners that can access the Group’s supply chain network. These franchisee partners pay an initial non-refundable fee for a comprehensive operating manual and orientation training, as well as an agreed system usage fee for each order processed through the Group’s supply chain network. The initial non-refundable fees and system usage fees were insignificant for all periods presented.

Store+ services

 

The Group recognizes revenue upon the delivery of the consumer goods to its convenience store membership customers. For the Group’s self-operated convenience stores, revenue recognized upon the sales of merchandise to end consumers. The Group is the principal to the transaction for the sales of customer goods and merchandise and revenue from these transactions are recognized on a gross basis. Transfer of control occurs at a point in time once delivery has been completed as the Group has transferred control of the promised goods to the customer. Generally, customers are billed upon delivery of the consumer goods while convenience store customers make payment upon checkout of merchandise.

 

Other services

 

The Group mainly provides cross-border logistic coordination services, finance leasing services and Ucargo transportation services. For cross-border logistic coordination services, the Group recognize revenue upon completion of the services. Revenue from interest income on sales-type and financing leases is recognized using the effective interest rate method. Ucargo transportation services revenue is recognized proportionally as a shipment moves from origin to destination using an output method of progress based on time-in-transit while the related costs are recognized as incurred. The Group is the principal to the transaction for these services and revenue from these transactions is recognized on a gross basis.

Contract assets and liabilities

 

The Group enters into contracts with its customers, which may give rise to contract liabilities (deferred revenue) and contract assets (unbilled revenue). The payment terms and conditions within the Group’s contracts vary by the type of service and customers. When the timing of revenue recognition differs from the timing of payments made by customers, the Group recognizes either unbilled revenue (its performance precedes the billing date) or deferred revenue (customer payment is received in advance of performance).

 

Contract assets represent unbilled amounts resulting from provision of transportation services as the Group has an unconditional right to payment only once all delivered goods reach their destination. Contract assets are classified as current and the full balance is reclassified to accounts receivables when the right to payment becomes unconditional. As of December, 31, 2018 and June 30, 2019, the balance of contract assets was insignificant.

 

Contract liabilities are included in “customer advances and deposits and deferred revenue” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. Contract liabilities represent the amount of consideration received upfront from customers related to in-transit shipments that has not yet been recognized as revenue based on our selected measure of progress and non-refundable franchise fees which are recognized over the franchise period. The Group classifies contract liabilities as current based on the timing of when the Group expects to recognize revenue, which typically occurs within a week after period-end.

 

The opening and closing balances of contract liabilities arising from contracts with customers as of June 30, 2019 were as follows:

For contract costs associated with obtaining a contract, the Group capitalized the incremental contract cost such as commissions incurred in connection with obtaining a contract and amortizes the capitalized contract costs using a straight line basis over the term of the contract. The capitalized contract costs as of December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2019 and the related amortization for all periods presented was insignificant.

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

Transfer of financial assets

 

The Group accounts for transfers of financial assets in accordance with ASC 860, Transfers and Servicing (“ASC 860”). For a transfer of financial assets considered as a sale, the assets would be removed from the Group’s consolidated balance sheets. If the conditions for a sale required by ASC 860 are not met, the transfer is considered to be a secured borrowing and the assets remain on the consolidated balance sheet while the sale proceeds are recognized as a liability.

 

Pursuant to ASC 860, the issuance of debt securities securitized by Group’s lease rental receivables arising from its financing lease business (note 11) and the factoring of note receivables to domestic banks (note 9) do not constitute a sale of the underlying financial assets for accounting purposes due to the recourse obligations retained by the Group. Therefore, these transactions are accounted for as secured borrowings on the consolidated balance sheet and the fianncial assets are not derecognized.

 

Cost of revenue

 

Cost of revenue consists primarily of transportation costs including last-mile delivery service fees, cost of express and freight delivery accessories, operating costs for the delivery platforms, hubs and sortation centers, operating costs for the supply chain management network, purchased consumer goods, salaries and benefits of related personnel, depreciation, rental costs, and other related operating costs.

 

Selling expenses

 

Advertising costs are expensed when incurred and are included in selling expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. For the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2019, advertising expenses were RMB24,131 and RMB25,065 (US$3,651), respectively.

 

Selling expenses include shipping and handling costs incurred for the Store+ services segment comprising of costs for operating and staffing the Group’s warehouses, packaging, and outbound shipping to customers. For the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2019, shipping and handling costs amounted to RMB105,826 and RMB91,550 (US$13,336), respectively.

 

Selling expenses also include retail store occupancy costs such as rent, depreciation, amortization and overhead expenses incurred for Wowo and Shanxi Wowo, which is included in the Store+ services segment. For the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2019, retail store occupancy costs amounted to RMB51,009 and RMB66,296 (US$9,657), respectively.

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

Leases

 

On January 1, 2019, the Group adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02 (“ASU 2016-02”), Leases (Topic 842), using the modified retrospective transition method and elected the transition option to use an effective date of January 1, 2019 as the date of initial application. As a result, the comparative periods were not restated.

 

The Group has elected the package of practical expedients permitted which allows the Group not to reassess the following at adoption date: (i) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contains a lease, (ii) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases, and (iii) initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases (i.e. whether those costs qualify for capitalization under ASU 2016-02). The Group also elected the short-term lease exemption for certain classes of underlying assets including office space, warehouses and hub and sortation center facilities and equipment, with a lease term of 12 months or less.

 

The Group’s accounting policy effective on the adoption date of ASU 2016-02 is as follows:

 

Sales-type, direct financing and operating leases as Lessor

 

The Group classifies a lease as a sales-type lease when the lease meets any one of the following criteria at lease commencement:

 

 

a.

The lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the lessee by the end of the lease term.

 

 

 

 

b.

The lease grants the lessee an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise.

 

 

 

 

c.

The lease term is for a major part of the remaining economic life of the underlying asset.

 

 

 

 

d.

The present value of the sum of the lease payments and any residual value guaranteed by the lessee that is not already reflected in the lease payments equals or exceeds substantially all of the fair value of the underlying asset.

 

 

 

 

e.

The underlying asset is of such a specialized nature that it is expected to have no alternative use to the Company at the end of the lease term.

 

For sales-type leases, when collectability is probable at lease commencement, the Group derecognizes the underlying asset and recognizes the net investment in the lease which is the sum of the lease receivable and the unguaranteed residual asset. Initial direct costs are expensed, at the commencement date, if the fair value of the underlying asset is different from its carrying amount. Interest income is recognized in financing income over the lease term using the interest method.

 

When none of the criteria above are met, the Group classifies a lease as either a direct financing lease or an operating lease. The Group will classify the lease as a direct financing lease if (i) the present value of the sum of lease payments and any residual value guaranteed by the lessee and any other third party unrelated to the Group equals or exceeds substantially all the fair value of the underlying asset; and (ii) it is probable that the Group will collect the lease payments plus any amount necessary to satisfy a residual value guarantee. If both of the criteria above are not met, the Group will classify the lease as a an operating lease.

 

The new standard requires lessors within the scope of ASC 942, Financial Services — Depository and Lending, to classify principal payments received from sales-type and direct financing leases in investing activities in the statement of cash flows. The Company continues to present cash receipts from direct financing and sales-type leases as an investing cash inflow. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, and cash receipts from sales-type and direct financing leases were RMB313,253 (US$45,630) respectively.

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

Leases (continued)

 

Financing lease and operating lease as Lessee

 

The Group classifies a lease as a financing lease when the lease meets any one of the criteria specified as (a) to (e) in the “Sales-type, direct financing and operating leases as Lessor” policy at lease commencement. When none of the criteria are met, the Group classifies a lease as an operating lease.

 

For both operating and financing leases, the Group records a lease liability and corresponding right-of-use (ROU) asset at lease commencement. Lease terms are based on the non-cancellable term of the lease and may contain options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Group will exercise the option. Lease liabilities represent the present value of the lease payments not yet paid, discounted using the discount rate for the lease at lease commencement.

 

The Group estimates its incremental borrowing rate for its leases at the commencement date to determine the present value of future lease payments when the implicit rate is not readily determinable in the lease. In estimating its incremental borrowing rate, the Group considers its credit rating and publicly available data of borrowing rates for loans of similar amount, currency and term as the lease.

 

Operating leases are presented as “operating lease ROU assets” and “operating lease liabilities”. Lease liabilities that become due within one year of the balance sheet date are classified as current liabilities. Operating lease ROU asset represents the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and are recognized in an amount equal to the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made prior to commencement date, less any lease incentives received and any initial direct costs incurred by the Group.

 

After lease commencement, operating lease liabilities are measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments using the discount rate determined at lease commencement. Operating lease ROU assets are measured at the amount of the lease liabilities and further adjusted for prepaid or accrued lease payments, the remaining balance of any lease incentives received, unamortized initial direct costs and impairment of the ROU assets, if any. Operating lease expense is recognized as a single cost on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

Financing lease ROU assets are included in “property and equipment” and “financing lease liabilities” on the consolidated balance sheet. Lease liabilities that become due within one year of the balance sheet date are classified as current liabilities. Financing lease ROU assets are amortized on a straight-line basis from the lease commencement date. After initial measurement, the carrying value of the lease liability is increased to reflect interest at a constant rate and reduced to reflect any lease payments made during the period.

8.  LEASES

 

Leases of motor vehicles and logistic equipment as Lessor

 

The Group provides direct financing and sales-type leases of multiple types of motor vehicles and logistic equipment, primarily to transportation service providers that meet the Group’s credit assessment requirements. The leases range from two to ten years, do not contain contingent rental income clauses, and are fully collateralized by assets the Group can repossess in the event of default. Initial direct costs were insignificant for all periods presented. The lease agreements include lease payments that are largely fixed, do not contain residual value guarantees or variable lease payments. The Group generally either grants the lessee an option at the end of the lease term to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise or ownership of the underlying asset transfers to the lessee if a nominal amount is paid.

 

The net investment in direct financing and sales-type leases are presented as “lease rental receivables” on the consolidated balance sheets as follows:

Losses incurred with respect to default on lease receivables were insignficant for all periods presented. As of December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2019, the allowance of lease rental receivables were RMB nil and RMB6,615 (US$964). Accordingly, risk of default with respect to these receivables is remote.

Financing and operatings as Lessee

 

The Group has operating leases for certain offices, warehouses, hub and sortation center facilities and equipment and financing leases for certain machinery and electronic equipment as a lessee.

 

The Group’s lease agreements include lease payments that are largely fixed, do not contain material residual value guarantees or variable lease payments. The leases have remaining lease terms of up to twenty years. Certain lease agreements include terms with options to extend the lease, however none of these have been recognized in the Company’s right-of-use assets or lease liabilities since those options were not reasonably certain to be exercised. The Group’s leases do not contain restrictions or covenants that restrict the Group from incurring other financial obligations. The Group’s lease agreements may contain lease and non-lease components. Non-lease components primarily include payments for maintenance and utilities.   Consideration for lease and non-lease components are allocated on a relative standalone selling price basis.

As of June 30, 2019, the Group factored certain intercompany notes receivables with a total face value of RMB191,500 (US$27,895) to several domestic banks for total proceeds of RMB186,200 (US$27,123), at an effective interest rate of 3.4%-3.6% (“the receivable factoring transaction”). As the factoring of notes receivables was with recourse, the receivable factoring transaction did not qualify as a transfer of financial assets to be considered as a sale under ASC 860 and was accounted for as a secured borrowing. The note receivables remain on the consolidated balance sheet while the sale proceeds are recognized as liabilities included in “Short-term bank loans”.

11.  SECURITIZATION DEBT

 

In June 2019, BEST Finance transferred certain lease rental receivables totaling RMB705,033 (US$102,700) with remaining lease terms ranging from one to four years originating from its finance leasing services business to a securitization vehicle. The securitization vehicle created Xinyuan Leasing Asset Backed Special Plan (the “Plan” and contemporaneously issued debt securities securitized by the transferred lease rental receivables (“asset-backed securities”) to qualified institution investors on the Shanghai Stock Exchange and raised total proceeds of RMB219,000 (US$31,901) under the Plan. The Plan consists of three tranches: Series A tranche with a stated interest of 5.5% maturing in 2020, Series B tranche with a stated interest of 6.5% maturing in 2021 and a subordinated tranche maturing in 2023. The Group also provided a guarantee to the Plan to secure the full repayment of the principal and interest of the Series A and B tranches of the Plan issued to external investors.

 

The Group acts as the servicer of the Plan by providing payment collection services for the underlying lease rental receivables and holds significant variable interests in the Plan through holding the subordinated tranche of asset-backed debt securities and the guarantee provided, from which the Group has the obligation to absorb losses of the Plan that could potentially be significant to the Plan. Accordingly, the Group is considered the primary beneficiary of the Plan and has consolidated the Plan’s assets, liabilities, results of operations, and cash flows in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

 

As a result of the series of transactions described above, the maturity dates of the Series A and B tranches of the Plan issued to external investors were considered borrowings from external investors. The proceeds from borrowings from external investors is a financing activity and reported as “Proceeds from issuance of asset-back securities, net of issuance costs” on the consolidated statements of cash flow. Total issuance costs incurred for the securitization transaction amounted to RMB6,684 (US$974), including RMB5,768 (US$840) recorded in accrued expenses and other liabilities as of June 30, 2019.

 

As of June 30, 2019, the total outstanding borrowings from external investors were RMB212,631 (US$30,973) for which RMB145,359 (US$21,174) is repayable within one year and is included in current “Securitization debt” and the remaining balance of RMB67,272 (US$9,799) is repayable beyond one year and included in non-current “Securitization debt” on the consolidated balance sheet. The weighted average effective interest rate for the outstanding securitization debt was 11.78% as of June 30, 2019.

The Group recorded income tax expense of RMB4,000 and RMB8,102 (US$1,180), representing effective tax rates of negative 0.93% and negative 3.27%, for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2019, respectively. The primary difference between the PRC statutory tax rate of 25% and the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2019 is primarily due to the Group is in a cumulative loss position as of December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2019.

 

There is an immaterial provision for income taxes because the Company and substantially all of its wholly-owned subsidiaries are in a current loss position for all the periods presented. The Group is in a cumulative loss position as of December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2019. Deferred tax assets amounting to RMB16,157 (US$2,354) were recorded based on known and solid taxable income with no uncertainty as of December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2019, while for the remaining deferred tax assets, the Group provided a full valuation allowance due to the uncertainty of future reversal.

 

Unrecognized tax benefits amounted to RMB132,808 and RMB138,037 (US$20,107) as of December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2019. The unrecognized tax benefits represents the estimated income tax expense the Group would pay should its income tax returns have been prepared in accordance with the current PRC tax laws and regulations. It is possible that the amount of uncertain tax position will change in the next twelve months; however, an estimate of the range of the possible outcomes cannot be made at this time. All of the uncertain tax positions, if ultimately recognized, will impact the effective tax rate. In general, the PRC tax authority has up to five years to conduct examinations of the Group’s tax filings. Accordingly, the PRC subsidiaries’ and VIE and its subsidiaries’ tax years 2014 through 2018 remain open to examination by the taxing jurisdictions.

14.  LOSS PER SHARE (Continued)

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2019, the two-class method is applicable because the Company has three classes of ordinary shares outstanding, Class A, Class B and Class C ordinary shares, respectively. The effects of all outstanding share options and restricted share units were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2019 as their effects would be anti-dilutive.

16.  SEGMENT REPORTING

 

The Group has determined that it operates in five operating segments: (1) Supply chain management services, (2) Express delivery services, (3) Freight delivery services, (4) Store+ services, and (5) Others. The “Others” category principally relates to finance leasing services, cross-border logistic coordination services and Ucargo transportation services. The operating segments also represented the reporting segments.

 

The chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer. The CODM assess the performance of the operating segments based on the measures of revenues, costs of revenues and gross profit. Other than the information provided below, the CODM does not use any other measures by segments. The Group currently does not allocate assets to its operating segments, as the CODM does not use such information to allocate resources to or evaluate the performance of the operating segments. As most of the Group’s long-lived assets are located in the PRC and most of the Group’s revenues are derived from the PRC, no geographical information is presented.

 

The table below provides a summary of the Group’s operating segment results for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2019, respectively.

The Group recongnized a gain of RMB64,628 (US$9,400) for measuring equity investments at fair value using the measurement alternative resulting from the observable price changes occurring in August, 2018.

 

The Group carries the securitization debt at amortized cost on its consolidated balance sheet. The carrying value of the current portion of securitization debt approximates its fair value due to its short-term maturity while the non-current portion of securitization debt approximates its fair value due to the fact that the related interest rates approximate market rates for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities.

 

The Group had no financial assets and liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2018. The Group had no financial assets and liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis as of June 30, 2019.
