12. LEASES

 

The Group recognized lease assets and lease liabilities related to substantially all of the Group’s lease arrangements in the consolidated financial statements. The Group has operating leases primarily for office and operations space. The Group’s operating lease arrangements have remaining terms of one year to ten years.

 

The Group’s finance lease represented the lease of the used car retail superstore (the “Superstore”) in Hefei. A subsidiary of the Company, Uxin Hefei entered into a lease and purchase agreement with HCI to lease the Superstore in Hefei with a 10-year lease term with an annual lease payment of RMB147.1 million from September 2023 to September 2032, and further obtained an option to purchase the Superstore at the cost of RMB716.9 million at the end of lease term. The initial direct cost made and the incentive received on or before the lease commencement date were immaterial. On the lease commencement date, the property, plant and equipment for the Superstore amounted RMB1,563.5 million with the estimated useful lives of 50 years, being the present value of the lease payments and the exercise price of the purchase obligation using the implicit rate of return in the finance lease arrangement. The Group commenced the lease of the Superstore in September 2023. As the lease contains an option to purchase the underlying asset which is reasonably certain to be exercised by the Company, it was classified as a finance lease.

 

In October 2023, Uxin Hefei and HCI mutually agreed that HCI will convert its first-year rental of RMB147.1 million into an investment for the subscription of 12.02% equity interests in Uxin Hefei (Note 16).

 

In January 2024 and September 2024, the total lease payments were modified respectively, and the lease liability was remeasured based on the modified lease by discounting the revised lease payments using a revised discount rate at the effective date of the modification. Right-of-us assets and lease liabilities are adjusted down by RMB216.1 million and adjusted up by RMB28.2 million upon the modifications in January 2024 and September 2024, respectively.

 

In April 2025, Uxin Hefei and HCI mutually agreed that HCI will convert its second-year rental of RMB127.7 million into an investment for the subscription of 8.40% equity interests in Uxin Hefei. According to this agreement signed with HCI, the subsequent settlement of the second-year rental did not constitute any breach or default of the contract as of December 31, 2024.
