the third quarter of 2020,” stated Mr. Wu Tianhua, CEO and Director of UP Fintech. “Total revenues were US$38.0 million, a 148.2% increase from the third quarter of 2019. Our platform attracted a record number of new clients as we continued to innovate and add new features to enhance the user experience. I am delighted to announce that in late October 2020 we opened our one millionth client account, a major milestone for our firm. In the third quarter, we added 46,800 funded accounts, 7X the quarterly growth rate in the same period last year. Total funded accounts reached 214,700, an increase of 110.7% over the same period last year. Clients also continued to allocate more of their assets to our platform, and as of September 30, 2020, total account balance reached US$10.9 billion, a 188.1% year-over-year increase.”</p><p>In the third quarter we expanded our brokerage capabilities as we began to facilitate clients trading equities listed in Singapore and Australia. We continued to increase our capability to self-clear U.S. cash equities, and user acquisition in the U.S. & Singapore proceeded at a nice rate. We now have licensed operations in the U.S., Singapore, New Zealand, and Australia and our internationalization strategy is demonstrating good progress; overseas clients now account for 20% of newly funded accounts.</p><p>On the investment banking side, spurred by favorable conditions in global capital markets, we continued to assist a wide range of China-based issuers raise financing in the U.S. & Hong Kong. In total, we participated in eight listings in the third quarter. Our ESOP management business continues to grow well, and we added 23 clients in the third quarter. Going forward we expect both of these businesses to further expand their diverse range of clients. We continued to invest in our asset management business and our “Fund Mall” now features over 100 mutual funds from notable global institutions. Finally, our integration of Marsco Investment Corporation (“Marsco”) is proceeding well, and over 10% of client accounts are now having their U.S. cash equities trades cleared by Marsco.</p><p>Some adjustments have been made to the board of directors of the Company. Mr. Lei Huang was approved by the board of the Company to serve as a director of the Company, effective on November 23, 2020.

The presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with the United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”). We define non-GAAP operating income or loss as total net revenue minus total operating costs and expenses, plus shared-based compensation. Non-GAAP net loss or income attributable to UP Fintech Holding Limited is net loss or income attributable to UP Fintech Holding Limited excluding share-based compensation and impairment loss from equity investments. Non-GAAP net loss or income per ADS - diluted is non-GAAP net loss or income attributable to UP Fintech Holding Limited divided by weighted average number of diluted ADSs. Such adjustments have no impact on income tax.</p><p>We present these non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by our management to evaluate our operating performance and formulate business plans. Non-GAAP net loss or income attributable to UP Fintech Holding Limited enables our management to assess our operating results without considering the impact of share-based compensation and impairment loss from equity investments. We also believe that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures facilitates investors' assessment of our operating performance.</p><p>These non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool. One of the key limitations of using these non-GAAP financial measures is that they do not reflect all items of income and expenses that affect our operations. Share-based compensation and impairment loss from equity investment has been and may continue to be incurred in our business and was not reflected in the presentation of non-GAAP net loss or income attributable to UP Fintech Holding Limited. Further, these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the non-GAAP financial information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited.</p><p>These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or construed as alternatives to total operating expenses, net loss attributable to UP Fintech Holding Limited or any other measure of performance or as an indicator of our operating performance. Investors are encouraged to review these historical non-GAAP financial measures in light of the most directly comparable GAAP measures. These non-GAAP financial measures presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently, limiting the usefulness of such measures when analyzing our data comparatively. We encourage investors and others to review our financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.</p><p><b>About UP Fintech Holding Limited</b></p><p>UP Fintech Holding Limited is a leading online brokerage firm focusing on global investors.

The presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with the United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”). We define non-GAAP operating income or loss as total net revenue minus total operating costs and expenses, plus shared-based compensation. Non-GAAP net loss or income attributable to UP Fintech Holding Limited is net loss or income attributable to UP Fintech Holding Limited excluding share-based compensation and impairment loss from equity investments. Non-GAAP net loss or income per ADS - diluted is non-GAAP net loss or income attributable to UP Fintech Holding Limited divided by weighted average number of diluted ADSs. Such adjustments have no impact on income tax.</p><p>We present these non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by our management to evaluate our operating performance and formulate business plans. Non-GAAP net loss or income attributable to UP Fintech Holding Limited enables our management to assess our operating results without considering the impact of share-based compensation and impairment loss from equity investments. We also believe that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures facilitates investors' assessment of our operating performance.</p><p>These non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool. One of the key limitations of using these non-GAAP financial measures is that they do not reflect all items of income and expenses that affect our operations. Share-based compensation and impairment loss from equity investment has been and may continue to be incurred in our business and was not reflected in the presentation of non-GAAP net loss or income attributable to UP Fintech Holding Limited. Further, these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the non-GAAP financial information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited.</p><p>These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or construed as alternatives to total operating expenses, net loss attributable to UP Fintech Holding Limited or any other measure of performance or as an indicator of our operating performance. Investors are encouraged to review these historical non-GAAP financial measures in light of the most directly comparable GAAP measures. These non-GAAP financial measures presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently, limiting the usefulness of such measures when analyzing our data comparatively. We encourage investors and others to review our financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.</p><p><b>About UP Fintech Holding Limited</b></p><p>UP Fintech Holding Limited is a leading online brokerage firm focusing on global investors.
