“In the third quarter, we took steps to shore-up our business foundation and narrow our losses, while continuing to provide users with the products and services they love,” said Mr. Rui Chen, chairman and chief executive officer of Bilibili. “Our DAUs and MAUs each increased by 25% year-over-year to over 90 million and nearly 333 million, respectively. Users remained highly engaged and the average daily time spent on Bilibili reached a 96-minute record high. While our community remains key to our long-term success, we believe it is essential to stay adaptive to the increasingly challenging macro environment. Putting profitability first, we will take additional initiatives to accelerate our monetization and implement cost containment measures including rationalizing headcount planning and cutting sales and marketing expenses, with our goal set to improve our margins and narrow our losses.”

Mr. Sam Fan, chief financial officer of Bilibili, said, “Total net revenues increased by 11% year-over-year and 18% quarter-over-quarter in the third quarter. By improving operating efficiency and controlling our expenses, we expanded our gross margin and narrowed our losses, both on a sequential basis. Sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenues declined to 21%, compared with 24% in the prior quarter. Our non-GAAP adjusted net loss ratio also narrowed by 10 percentage points sequentially. Going forward, we will continue to implement strict cost control measures, while actively managing our liabilities.”

Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Total net revenues. Total net revenues were RMB5.8 billion (US$814.5 million), representing an increase of 11% from the same period of 2021.

Mobile games. Revenues from mobile games were RMB1.5 billion (US$206.8 million), representing an increase of 6% from the same period of 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to the newly launched mobile games.

Value-added services (VAS). Revenues from VAS were RMB2.2 billion (US$310.6 million), representing an increase of 16% from the same period of 2021, mainly attributable to the Company’s enhanced monetization efforts, led by an increased number of paying users for the Company’s value-added services, including the premium membership program, live broadcasting services and other value-added services.

Advertising. Revenues from advertising were RMB1.4 billion (US$190.5 million), representing an increase of 16% from the same period of 2021. This increase was primarily attributable to further recognition of Bilibili’s brand name in China’s online advertising market, as well as Bilibili’s improved advertising efficiency.

E-commerce and others. Revenues from e-commerce and others were RMB757.8 million (US$106.5 million), representing an increase of 3% from the same period of 2021.

Cost of revenues. Cost of revenues was RMB4.7 billion (US$666.3 million), representing an increase of 13% from the same period of 2021. The increase was mainly due to higher revenue-sharing costs and content costs. Revenue-sharing costs, a key component of cost of revenues, was RMB2.4 billion (US$335.1 million), representing an increase of 11% from the same period of 2021.

Gross profit. Gross profit was RMB1.1 billion (US$148.2 million), representing an increase of 4% from the same period of 2021.

Sales and marketing expenses. Sales and marketing expenses were RMB1.2 billion (US$172.7 million), representing a 25% decrease year-over-year. The decrease was primarily attributable to reduced promotional spending in the third quarter of 2022.

General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses were RMB543.4 million (US$76.4 million), representing a 14% increase year-over-year. The increase was primarily due to increased headcount in general and administrative personnel.

Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses were RMB1.1 billion (US$159.0 million), representing a 43% increase year-over-year. The increase was primarily due to increased headcount in research and development personnel and increased depreciation expenses of server and equipment.

Income tax expense. Income tax expense was RMB27.1 million (US$3.8 million), compared with RMB28.3 million in the same period of 2021.

Recent Development

The Company’s voluntary conversion of its secondary listing status to primary listing on The Main Board of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Hong Kong Stock Exchange”) became effective on October 3, 2022. The Company is now a dual-primary listed company on The Main Board of Hong Kong Stock Exchange in Hong Kong and the Nasdaq Global Select Market in the United States.

Outlook

For the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company currently expects net revenues to be between RMB6.0 billion and RMB6.2 billion.

The above outlook is based on the current market conditions and reflects the Company’s preliminary estimates, which are all subject to various uncertainties, including those related to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

¹ Starting from the second quarter of 2022, we count our active users as the sum of active users on mobile apps and PC ends during a given period. We calculate active users on mobile apps based on the number of mobile devices (including smart TV and other smart devices) that have launched our mobile apps during a given period. Active users on the PC ends refer to the sum of valid logged-in users who visit our PC website at www.bilibili.com and engage in PC application during a given period, after eliminating duplicates.

² The paying users refer to users who make payments for various products and services on our platform, including purchases in games and payments for VAS (excluding purchases on our e-commerce platform). A user who makes payments across different products and services offered on our platform using the same registered account is counted as one paying user and we add the number of paying users of Maoer toward our total paying users without eliminating duplicates. Starting from the second quarter of 2022, we add the number of paying users of smart TVs toward our total paying users without eliminating duplicates.

³ Adjusted net loss and adjusted basic and diluted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures. For more information on non-GAAP financial measures, please see the section of “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and the table captioned “Unaudited Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses non-GAAP measures, such as adjusted net loss, adjusted net loss per share and per ADS, basic and diluted, in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in its business by excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses, amortization expense related to intangible assets acquired through business acquisitions, income tax related to intangible assets acquired through business acquisitions, gain/loss on fair value change in investments in publicly traded companies, gain on repurchase of convertible senior notes, expenses related to organizational optimization, and termination expenses of certain game projects. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information about the Company’s results of operations, enhance the overall understanding of the Company’s past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by the Company’s management in its financial and operational decision-making. The Company also believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expenses, gains (losses) and other items (i) that are not expected to result in future cash payments or (ii) that are non-recurring in nature or may not be indicative of the Company's core operating results and business outlook.

The non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and when assessing the Company’s operating performance, cash flows or liquidity, investors should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for net loss, cash flows provided by operating activities or other consolidated statements of operations and cash flows data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The Company mitigates these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP performance measures, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company’s performance.

For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned “Unaudited Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results.”
