Insights

Financial Analyst

Cheetah Mobile shows strong 57.5% YoY revenue growth with dramatically narrowing losses, approaching profitability through AI expansion and operational efficiency.

Cheetah Mobile's Q2 2025 results demonstrate substantial progress in its strategic transformation toward profitability. The company delivered RMB295.2 million ($41.2 million) in total revenue, representing a robust 57.5% year-over-year increase and 14.0% sequential growth.

The revenue growth was driven by two key segments: the Internet business, which is benefiting from a transition to subscription models, and the AI segment, which grew 86.4% year-over-year and now accounts for 46.5% of total revenue. This diversification strengthens the company's business model and reduces dependency on any single revenue stream.

Profitability metrics show remarkable improvement. Gross profit increased 85.0% year-over-year to RMB224.8 million ($31.4 million), with gross margin expanding substantially from 64.8% to 76.1%. This 11.3 percentage point margin expansion reflects improved operational efficiency and a shift toward higher-margin business lines.

Most impressively, operating losses narrowed by 85.7% year-over-year to just RMB11.1 million ($1.5 million), while non-GAAP operating losses decreased 96.7% to a mere RMB2.1 million ($0.3 million). At this pace, Cheetah Mobile appears to be on the cusp of operational profitability within the next 1-2 quarters.

The company maintains a strong liquidity position with RMB2,019.6 million ($281.9 million) in cash and cash equivalents, representing approximately $1.87 per ADS based on current exchange rates. This provides substantial financial flexibility for continued innovation investments while pursuing its path to profitability.

The recent acquisition of UFACTORY, a robotic arm business, aligns with Cheetah's AI-focused strategy and should help expand its addressable market. The company generated RMB361.7 million ($50.5 million) from operating activities during the quarter, demonstrating strong cash flow generation despite bottom-line losses.

BEIJING, Sept. 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Cheetah Mobile Inc. (NYSE: CMCM) ("Cheetah Mobile" or the "Company"), a China-based IT company, today announced its unaudited consolidated financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2025.

Management Commentary

Mr. Sheng Fu, Cheetah Mobile's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, remarked, "We delivered another quarter of solid topline growth and meaningful improvement in profitability, underscoring the early progress of our strategic transformation. Total revenue increased 57.5% year-over-year, driven by strong performance of both of our reporting segments. Our Internet business continued to benefit from our transition to a subscription-based model, with growing user engagement and retention. Revenue from our AI and others segment grew 86.4% year-over-year and accounted for 46.5% of total revenue. With the planned addition of UFACTORY, our recently acquired robotic arm business, we aim to strengthen our robotics capabilities and expand our addressable market. We remain committed to investing in AI utility applications and robotics. Encouraged by our business momentum, we will continue to drive sustainable growth and long-term shareholder value."

Mr. Thomas Ren, Chief Financial Officer of Cheetah Mobile, commented: "We continued to improve profitability in the second quarter, supported by disciplined execution and enhanced operational efficiency. Both GAAP and non-GAAP losses once again narrowed significantly year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter, reflecting meaningful progress in our loss reduction efforts. This demonstrates that our path to profitability is both credible and sustained. Our Internet business remained profitable, while adjusted operating losses from our AI and others segment declined significantly, down 62.8% year-over-year and 32.1% quarter-over-quarter, as we shifted from early exploration to a more focused, efficiency-driven strategy. Leveraging AI to accelerate R&D and scale up real-world use cases has contributed meaningfully to this improvement. Our balance sheet remains healthy, giving us the flexibility to continue investing in innovation while maintaining a clear path toward breakeven."

These statements, including management quotes and business outlook, constitute forward-looking statements under the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as "will," "expects," "anticipates," "future," "intends," "plans," "believes," "estimates" and similar statements. Such statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties. A number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements, including but are not limited to the following: Cheetah Mobile's growth strategies; Cheetah Mobile's ability to retain and increase its user base and expand its product and service offerings; Cheetah Mobile's ability to monetize its platform; Cheetah Mobile's future business development, financial condition and results of operations; competition with companies in a number of industries including internet companies that provide online marketing services and internet value-added services; expected changes in Cheetah Mobile's revenues and certain cost or expense items; and general economic and business condition globally and in China.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release contains non-GAAP financial measures, including but not limited to:

• Non-GAAP cost of revenues excludes share-based compensation expenses;
• Non-GAAP gross profit excludes share-based compensation expenses;
• Non-GAAP gross margin excludes share-based compensation expenses;
• Total non-GAAP operating expenses exclude share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets and impairment of goodwill resulting from business acquisitions;
• Non-GAAP research and development expenses exclude share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions;
• Non-GAAP selling and marketing expenses exclude share-based compensation expenses and amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions;
• Non-GAAP general and administrative expenses exclude share-based compensation expenses;
• Non-GAAP operating profit/loss excludes share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets and impairment of goodwill resulting from business acquisitions;
• Non-GAAP net income/loss attributable to Cheetah Mobile shareholders excludes share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets and impairment of goodwill resulting from business acquisitions;
• Non-GAAP diluted earnings/losses per ADS excludes share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets and impairment of goodwill resulting from business acquisitions; and
• Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA represents net loss attributable to Cheetah Mobile shareholders excluding share-based compensation, interest income, depreciation and amortization, impairment of goodwill, net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, other income/expenses, net and income tax expenses/benefits.

The Company reviews these non-GAAP financial measures together with GAAP financial measures to obtain a better understanding of its operating performance. It uses the non-GAAP financial measures for planning, forecasting and measuring results against the forecast. The Company believes that non-GAAP financial measures are useful supplemental information for investors and analysts to assess its operating performance without the effect of share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets and impairment of goodwill resulting from business acquisitions, which have been and will continue to be significant recurring expenses in its business. However, the use of non-GAAP financial measures has material limitations as an analytical tool. One of the limitations of using non-GAAP financial measures is that they do not include all items that impact the Company's net income for the period. In addition, because non-GAAP financial measures are not measured in the same manner by all companies, they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. In light of the foregoing limitations, you should not consider non-GAAP financial measure in isolation from or as an alternative to the financial measure prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the tables captioned "Cheetah Mobile Inc. Reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP Results".
