Insights

DouYu International Holdings reported significant declines in revenues and profitability for Q1 2024. Total net revenues fell by 29.9% year-over-year to RMB1,039.7 million and gross profit decreased by 38.3% to RMB109.0 million. Given the sharp drop in livestreaming revenues by 41.5%, the company's pivot to diversify revenue through advertising showed some promise, with such revenues increasing to RMB238.8 million, up 109.3% from the prior year.

However, the overall financial health remains concerning due to a net loss of RMB88.0 million compared to a net income of RMB14.5 million in Q1 2023. The ongoing macroeconomic headwinds and industry challenges further pressure the company's financial situation. Investors should note the company's effort to streamline operations and cut costs, which saw sales and marketing expenses cut by 16.6% and general and administrative expenses by 28.4%. While these measures are positive for cost management, they were insufficient to counterbalance the revenue decline.

The company's cash position appears relatively stable with RMB6,762.2 million in cash and equivalents, though this is slightly down from RMB6,855.5 million at the end of 2023. The share repurchase program authorized up to US$20 million of shares, of which US$2.7 million have been repurchased thus far.

DouYu's performance highlights several key industry trends and challenges. The decline in average mobile MAUs to 45.3 million from 50.2 million is indicative of a broader shift in consumer behavior and possibly increased competition in the live streaming and eSports sectors. The drop in quarterly average paying users from 4.5 million to 3.4 million further underscores the challenges in maintaining and growing a monetizable user base in a highly competitive environment.

The company's diversification into advertising revenue is a strategic move that aligns with broader industry trends towards monetizing user engagement beyond direct content sales. The substantial growth in advertising revenue suggests that DouYu's platform remains attractive to advertisers, albeit this is not yet sufficient to offset the declines in their primary livestreaming revenue streams.

Collaboration with major players like Tencent, as indicated by the renewal of their strategic cooperation agreement, offers potential long-term strategic benefits. However, the immediate impact on financials is less clear and the full benefit of such partnerships will likely unfold over time rather than in the immediate quarter.

The company's voluntary return of RMB111.7 million related to third-party streamers' illegal activities is a noteworthy legal move. While the company maintains it will have no material impact on operations, it underscores the regulatory risks inherent in the live streaming industry in China. This action indicates a proactive approach to regulatory compliance, which may bode well for long-term operational stability.

Nevertheless, this also highlights the potential for future regulatory scrutiny and associated financial impacts. Investors should consider the implications of ongoing and potential future regulatory investigations, which could create uncertainty around the company's financial outlook and operational practices.

WUHAN, China, June 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- DouYu International Holdings Limited ("DouYu" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: DOYU), a leading game-centric live streaming platform in China and a pioneer in the eSports value chain, today announced its unaudited financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.

First Quarter 2024 Financial and Operational Highlights

  • Total net revenues in the first quarter of 2024 were RMB1,039.7million (US$144.0 million), compared with RMB1,483.1 million in the same period of 2023.
  • Gross profit in the first quarter of 2024 was RMB109.0 million (US$15.1million), compared with RMB176.5 million in the same period of 2023.
  • Net loss in the first quarter of 2024 was RMB88.0 million (US$12.2 million), compared with net income of RMB14.5 million in the same period of 2023.
  • Adjusted net loss[1] in the first quarter of 2024 was RMB 85.7 million (US$11.9 million), compared with adjusted net income of RMB25.8 million in the same period of 2023.
  • Average mobile MAUs[2] in the first quarter of 2024 were 45.3 million, compared with 50.2 million in the same period of 2023.
  • The number of quarterly average paying users[3] in the first quarter of 2024 was 3.4 million, compared with 4.5 million in the same period of 2023.

The interim management committee of DouYu commented, "In the first quarter of 2024, we continued to work on the diversification of our commercialization capabilities and streamlined operations by optimizing our organizational structure and fine-tuning operating strategies. Our priority is elevating user experience and meeting our core users' needs with a steady stream of premium content. We are doing this by harnessing the power of our streamer resources and content ecosystem and actively exploring cooperation opportunities with more game developers to enrich our gaming service lineup. However, we continue to face macroeconomic headwinds and challenging industry dynamics, and remain dedicated to protecting our shareholders' long-term interests by executing our long-term strategy for developing a vibrant, diverse, game-centric content ecosystem. We consistently maximize the competitive edges of our extensive gaming ecosystem, agile operational mechanisms and close cooperation with game developers to propel our platform's long-term, sustainable growth."

Mr. Hao Cao, Vice President of DouYu, commented, "We reinforced our streamlined operations, ensuring the financial health of our business. While we shore up our fundamentals, we continue to face revenue pressures from soft macroeconomic conditions and ongoing adjustments to the livestreaming business, as well as operating uncertainties. In the first quarter of 2024, we made encouraging developments across our commercial diversification initiatives that improved our revenue mix. Revenue from advertising and others amounted to RMB 238.8 million, contributing 23.0% of our total revenue, a significant increase from 7.7% in the same period of 2023. Moving forward, we will increase our efforts to diversify our revenue streams and strengthen our solid foundation to drive the Company's healthy growth and deliver enduring value to our shareholders."

In connection with investigations by relevant government authorities against certain third-party streamers for their historical illegal activities, the Company voluntarily returned RMB111.7 million of gain that was related to these streamers' historical illegal activities to the relevant government authorities (the "Voluntary Return") this week. Pursuant to PRC law, the Company is not entitled to retain gains related to streamers' illegal activities. As a result, the Company elected to make the Voluntary Return, which has been recorded as an operating expense. The Voluntary Return has no material impact on our business operations and we continue to maintain normal business operations. The Company is not the target of any legal proceedings or investigations in connection with the historical illegal activities of these third-party streamers. There remain uncertainties regarding future developments or regulatory investigations into streamers' historical illegal activities. The Company will continue to fully cooperate with authorities and remains committed to upholding regulatory compliance on its platform.

First Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Total net revenues in the first quarter of 2024 decreased by 29.9% to RMB1,039.7million (US$144.0 million), compared with RMB1,483.1 million in the same period of 2023.

Livestreaming revenues in the first quarter of 2024 decreased by 41.5% to RMB800.9 million (US$110.9 million) from RMB1,369.0 million in the same period of 2023. The decrease was primarily due to the soft macroeconomic condition and our planned reduction in revenue-generating promotions during the first quarter in light of the seasonality, leading to a year-over-year decrease in total paying users.

Advertising and other revenues in the first quarter of 2024 increased by 109.3% to RMB238.8 million (US$33.1 million) from RMB114.1 million in the same period of 2023. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in other revenues generated through our other innovative business, such as voice-based social networking service.

Cost of revenues in the first quarter of 2024 decreased by 28.8% to RMB930.7 million (US$128.9 million) from RMB1,306.6 million in the same period of 2023.

Revenue-sharing fees and content costs in the first quarter of 2024 decreased by 37.7% to RMB675.1 million (US$93.5 million) from RMB1,084.4 million in the same period of 2023. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in revenue-sharing fees aligned with decreased livestreaming revenues, as well as a decline in content costs resulting from improved cost management in streamer payments and self-produced content.

Bandwidth costs in the first quarter of 2024 decreased by 33.7% to RMB82.5 million (US$11.4 million) from RMB124.5 million in the same period of 2023.The decline was primarily due to a year-over-year decrease in peak bandwidth usage.

Gross profit in the first quarter of 2024 was RMB109.0 million (US$15.1 million), compared with RMB176.5 million in the same period of 2023. The decline in gross profit was primarily attributable to a decrease in livestreaming revenues and an increase in other costs related to the development of innovative business. Gross margin in the first quarter of 2024 was 10.5%, compared with 11.9% in the same period of 2023.

Sales and marketing expenses in the first quarter of 2024 decreased by 16.6% to RMB75.6 million (US$10.5 million) from RMB90.7 million in the same period of 2023. The decrease was mainly attributable to a decrease in staff-related expenses.

Research and development expenses in the first quarter of 2024 decreased by 25.0% to RMB54.2 million (US$7.5 million) from RMB72.3 million in the same period of 2023. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in staff-related expenses.

General and administrative expenses in the first quarter of 2024 decreased by 28.4% to RMB42.8 million (US$5.9 million) from RMB59.8 million in the same period of 2023. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in staff-related expenses.

Other operating expenses, net in the first quarter of 2024 were RMB103.4 million (US$14.3 million) and included a RMB111.7 million of the Voluntary Return, compared with other operating income of RMB19.0 million in the same period of 2023.

Loss from operations in the first quarter of 2024 was RMB166.9 million (US$23.1 million), compared with RMB27.3 million in the same period of 2023.

Net loss in the first quarter of 2024 was RMB88.0 million (US$12.2 million), compared with net income of RMB14.5 million in the same period of 2023.

Adjusted net loss, which excludes the share of income (loss) in equity method investments, gain on disposal of investment and impairment loss of investments, was RMB85.7 million (US$11.9 million) in the first quarter of 2024, compared with adjusted net income of RMB25.8 million in the same period of 2023.

Basic and diluted net loss per ADS[4] in the first quarter of 2024 were both RMB2.77 (US$0.38). Adjusted basic and diluted net loss per ADS in the first quarter of 2024 were both RMB2.69 (US$0.37).

Updates of Share Repurchase Program

On December 28, 2023, the Company announced that its board of directors had authorized a share repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase up to US$20 million of its ordinary shares in the form of ADSs during a period of up to 12 months commencing on January 1, 2024. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had repurchased an aggregate of US$2.7 million of its ADSs in the open market under this program, and we expect to expedite the repurchase activity in the second quarter of 2024.

Renewal of Framework Agreement with Tencent

On June 4, 2024, the Company and Tencent further renewed our strategic cooperation agreement (the "SCFM"), which initially became effective on January 31, 2018 and was subsequently replaced by the Amended and Restated SCFM dated April 1, 2019.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted operating income (loss) is calculated as operating income (loss) adjusted for impairment loss of goodwill and intangible assets. Adjusted net income (loss) is calculated as net income (loss) adjusted for share of income (loss) in equity method investments, gain on disposal of investment, impairment loss of investments, and impairment loss of goodwill and intangible assets. Adjusted net income (loss) attributable to DouYu is calculated as net income (loss) attributable to DouYu adjusted for share of income (loss) in equity method investments, gain on disposal of investment, impairment loss of investments, and impairment loss of goodwill and intangible assets. Adjusted basic and diluted net income per ordinary share is non-GAAP net income attributable to ordinary shareholders divided by weighted average number of ordinary shares used in the calculation of non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per ordinary share. The Company adjusted the impact of (i) share of income (loss) in equity method investments, (ii) gain on disposal of investment, (iii) impairment loss of investments, (iv) impairment loss of goodwill and intangible assets to understand and evaluate the Company's core operating performance. The non-GAAP financial measures are presented to enhance investors' overall understanding of the Company's financial performance and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of the historical non-GAAP financial measures to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. As non-GAAP financial measures have material limitations as analytical metrics and may not be calculated 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 measures as a substitute for, or superior to, such metrics in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned "Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Results" near the end of this release.
