Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company uses non-GAAP measures, such as adjusted profit/(loss) from operations, adjusted net profit/(loss), adjusted net profit/(loss) margin, adjusted net profit/(loss) per share and per ADS, basic and diluted and adjusted net profit/(loss) attributable to the Bilibili Inc.’s shareholders 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, and loss on repurchase of convertible senior notes. The Company calculates adjusted net profit/(loss) margin by dividing the adjusted net profit/(loss) by revenue for the same period. 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 non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and therefore, may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. 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 profit/(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.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company uses non-GAAP measures, such as adjusted (loss)/profit from operations, adjusted net (loss)/profit, adjusted net (loss)/profit margin and adjusted net (loss)/profit attributable to the Bilibili Inc.’s shareholders 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, and loss on repurchase of convertible senior notes. The Company calculates adjusted net (loss)/profit margin by dividing the adjusted net (loss)/profit by revenue for the same period. 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 non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. 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)/profit, 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.

BUSINESS REVIEW AND OUTLOOK
Business review for the Reporting Period
2025 represented a landmark year for Bilibili, as we delivered standout results across both our community growth and financial performance. Throughout the year, our user growth regained momentum, while engagement consistently hit new record highs. On the commercial front, we achieved a significant milestone by delivering our first full year of GAAP profitability, reflecting the improved efficiency and scalability of our business model.
As an influential hub of diverse interests, our high-quality content and unique community experience continue to resonate deeply with young generations. This is reflected in our key user metrics, with Daily Active Users (“DAUs”), Monthly Active Users (“MAUs”) and average daily time spent per active user each hitting record highs. DAU growth accelerated year over year each quarter in 2025. For the full year, our DAUs reached nearly 112 million, and MAUs surpassed 368 million, both growing 8% year over year. Meanwhile, the average daily time spent per active user rose to 108 minutes, an increase of 6 minutes from 2024.
This solid community growth is translating into increasing commercial value, with even greater opportunities ahead. As our users dive deeper into the content they love, their willingness to spend continues to rise. In 2025, our average Monthly Paying Users (“MPUs”) surged to a record 34 million, driven by our various games and VAS offerings. At the same time, users are increasingly turning to Bilibili for advice and inspiration with genuine purchasing intent, propelling our advertising revenues to over RMB10 billion in 2025, up 23% year over year. With an average user age of 26 in 2025, our core user base is entering new life stages with greater purchasing power and expanding consumption needs. We are growing alongside them, unlocking more commercial opportunities and greater value across every touchpoint in our ecosystem.
The power of our community and commercialization engine, and its potential, is also evident in our financial results. We achieved our first full year of GAAP profitability alongside solid revenue growth. In 2025, our total net revenues increased by 13% year over year to RMB30.35 billion. As our revenue mix shifts toward high-margin businesses, our gross profit grew 27% year over year, with gross profit margin expanding to 36.6% from 32.7% in 2024. With improved gross profit and disciplined expense management, we achieved a net profit of RMB1.19 billion in 2025, compared with a net loss of RMB1.36 billion in 2024.
In addition, we embedded AI across Bilibili throughout the year to better serve our evolving community. For us, AI is a transformative force that deepens connection, enhances distribution efficiency and expands creative potential. By leveraging frontier large language models (“LLMs”), we have sharpened content discovery and ad targeting to new levels of precision. We are also equipping creators and advertisers with AIGC tools that lower barriers to entry, while AI-powered translation helps our best content reach global audiences. As we continue to invest in these capabilities, we are confident that AI will propel both our ecosystem and our business to the next level.

Content and Community
In 2025, we observed a growing shift among users toward depth and quality in content consumption, even as much of the internet remains saturated with short and disposable content. Our commitment to quality content across categories drives higher engagement. Throughout the year, we maintained our dominant leadership in ACG content. Total watch time of Chinese anime and game-related content increased by 55% and 20% year over year, respectively. Meanwhile, AI-related content emerged as one of our fastest-growing categories, with watch time up 73% year over year, cementing Bilibili’s position as the go-to platform for cutting-edge tech topics. Lifestyle and consumption-related content also expanded as our audience matures and their interests diversify. For example, watch time for outdoor fashion and travel and lodging content increased nearly 19% and 16% year over year, respectively. In July 2025, we launched our video podcast initiative, quickly establishing an early lead in this impactful format. Total watch time of video podcast surpassed 8 billion minutes in the second half of the year. This rapid adoption underscores our leadership in high-quality content and the community’s ability to foster deep user engagement.
Our content creators are the cornerstone of our ecosystem, and we remain committed to fostering a vibrant stage for their creativity. In 2025, we had approximately 4 million monthly active content creators, contributing nearly 24 million average monthly video submissions, up by 15% year over year. Notably, AI-driven distribution helps high-quality work find its audience much faster. By the end of 2025, the number of creators with one thousand, 10 thousands, 100 thousands and 1 million followers each grew by over 20% year over year. As creators build larger audiences and deeper connections on Bilibili, we have expanded our monetization infrastructure to help them achieve stronger commercial returns. In 2025, nearly 3 million content creators earned income on our platform through various advertising and value-added services products, and the average income per creator grew by 21% year over year. Notably, our fan-charging program continued to gain traction, with revenue doubling year over year and more than 10 million users directly supporting creators through this channel.
Our inspiring community vibe and interactive features have further deepened the connection between our users and our platform. The average daily time spent reached a new high of 108 minutes in 2025, growing 6 minutes year over year, with total user time spent increasing 14% year over year. By the end of 2025, we had over 284 million official members, with their 12-month retention rate remaining stable at around 80%. Beyond daily activity, we continue to cement our role as a cultural home for the young generation. In July 2025, we held our flagship offline events, Bilibili World and Bilibili Macro Link. They attracted over 400,000 attendees from across the country, marking a 60% year-over-year increase. Additionally, our signature New Year’s Eve Gala, The Most Beautiful Night of 2025, has emerged as an annual ritual for young audiences. The growing enthusiasm for these events further underscores our unparalleled influence among the young generation.
Commercialization
In 2025, we sharpened our commercialization capabilities across our key business verticals. Combined with strong financial execution, these initiatives led to continued gross margin expansion and culminated in our first full year of profitability. This solid financial foundation positions us to harness emerging opportunities and drive durable value over the long term.
7
Value-Added Services
In 2025, revenues from value-added services increased by 8% year over year to RMB11.93 billion, driven by solid growth across live broadcasting, premium memberships and other value-added services. Our live broadcasting business maintained steady growth with continued margin improvement. Our popular occupationally generated video offerings, particularly our Chinese anime titles, encouraged users to subscribe to premium memberships. By the end of 2025, premium memberships reached 25.3 million, growing 12% year over year, with nearly 80% of subscriptions on annual or auto-renewal plans, reflecting the ongoing strong loyalty of our users.
Meanwhile, our high-quality professional user generated video (“PUGV”) content and community have enabled us to continuously expand our VAS product offerings, as users increasingly show a willingness to pay directly for the content and services they care about. In 2025, our fan-charging program, in which users pay for our exclusive, high-quality PUGV content, continued to expand rapidly, with revenue doubling year over year.
Advertising
We delivered strong advertising growth in 2025, with revenue increasing 23% year over year to RMB10.06 billion. Growth was broad-based across performance-based ads, brand advertising and Sparkle, each contributing solid results. This robust growth reflects both the rising value of our user base and our continued progress in improving ad efficiency.
In 2025, our top five advertising verticals were games, digital products and home appliances, internet services, e-commerce and automotive. We have further solidified our leadership position in advanced verticals, such as digital products and home appliances, as well as home decoration, all categories that resonate with young consumers as they enter new life stages and their needs evolve. Furthermore, we grew our appeal among emerging industries looking to engage our young, high-value user base. AI-related advertising stood out, with spending surging by more than 150% year over year.
Throughout the year, we further advanced our ad infrastructure and products on multiple fronts, particularly by integrating AI and LLMs more deeply into our commercial algorithms, ad creative generation and smart delivery system. These efforts have enhanced our advertising efficiency and scalability without compromising user experience. In parallel, we continued to expand advertising inventory across our ecosystem by diversifying into more content consumption scenarios. We believe that by combining AI-powered ad infrastructure with authentic engagement, we can further turn creativity into conversion, positioning Bilibili’s advertising business to capture greater value as our community continues to scale.
Mobile Games Services
Revenues from mobile games increased by 14% to RMB6.39 billion in 2025, primarily driven by the contribution of our exclusively licensed game, San Guo: Mou Ding Tian Xia and the successful launch of our in-house developed game, Escape from Duckov in October 2025. Meanwhile, our legacy titles, like Fate Grand Order and Azure Lane, also contributed relatively steady revenues, demonstrating our commitment to and strength in long-term operations of high-quality games.
8
Escape from Duckov was a standout success in 2025. This in-houses developed title sold over 3 million copies in the first three weeks of its October debut. It went on to become a landmark release for China’s single-player game of the year, and now is regarded as one of the most cherished games of all time in China. Its success underscores our deep genre insight, in-house development capabilities, and ability to reinvent games for new generations of gamers. Building on this momentum, we aim to develop and scale high-quality, genre-defining games with lasting appeal for gamers of tomorrow.
Other information
In May 2025, we completed an offering of US$690.0 million in aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes due 2030 (the “Notes Offering”), with an interest rate of 0.625% per year. We planned to use the net proceeds from the Notes Offering for enhancing our content ecosystem, improving our overall monetization efficiency, funding the Concurrent Repurchase (as defined below), funding future repurchases (from time to time) under our share repurchase program, and for other general corporate purposes. We raised total net proceeds of approximately US$678.1 million from the Notes Offering, after deducting the initial purchasers’ commissions and expenses.
We also concurrently repurchased 5,588,140 Class Z Ordinary Shares (each represented by one ADS) for an aggregate amount of HK$782.9 million (US$100.0 million as translated on the date of the Notes Offering) (the “Concurrent Repurchase”) pursuant to our existing share repurchase program. All of the Class Z Ordinary Shares repurchased under the Concurrent Repurchase have been cancelled as of the end of the second quarter of 2025.
Events after the Reporting Period
Save as disclosed in this announcement, there were no other significant events that might affect us since the end of the Reporting Period and up to the date of this announcement.
Business Outlook
We are encouraged by our achievements in 2025. The progress we made this year underscores the strength of our content ecosystem and the vitality of our community. Moving forward in 2026, we will remain focused on supporting high-quality PUGV content and our deeply engaged interest-based community. As our user base continues to mature and gain purchasing power, Bilibili is evolving alongside this generation, positioning our platform to capture more of their lifelong value. We believe this ongoing structural progression will increasingly strengthen both our long-term influence and monetization potential.
Concurrently, advancements in AI are reshaping how content is created, experienced, and monetized, opening massive new opportunities across our platform. In 2026, we will deepen AI integration across our business to reinforce our leadership among China’s young generation. With profitability already achieved, we plan to strengthen the flywheel across our user and commercial ecosystems, using AI to amplify our core strengths and drive sustainable growth.

IP derivatives and others
Revenues from IP derivatives and others were RMB1.97 billion, representing a decrease of 3% from 2024.

Adjusted Profit/(Loss) from Operations
Adjusted profit from operations was RMB2.44 billion, compared with an adjusted loss from operations of RMB60.8 million in 2024.
Total Other Income/(Expense), Net
Total other income was RMB83.6 million, compared with total other expenses of RMB56.2 million in 2024.
Income Tax (Expense)/Benefit
Income tax expense was RMB17.1 million, compared with income tax benefit of RMB36.5 million in 2024.

Liquidity
The Company had cash and cash equivalents, time deposits and short-term investments of RMB24.15 billion as of December 31, 2025, compared with RMB16.54 billion as of December 31, 2024. The increase was mainly due to the offering of 2030 Notes for a total cash consideration of US$678.1 million.
The Company generated RMB7.15 billion operating cash flow, compared with RMB6.01 billion operating cash flow in 2024.
Significant Investments
The Group did not make or hold any significant investments during the year ended December 31, 2025.
Foreign Exchange Exposure
A substantial majority of our revenues and costs is denominated in Renminbi. Any significant depreciation of the Renminbi may materially adversely affect the value of, and any dividends payable on, the ADSs in U.S. dollars. For example, when we convert our U.S. dollars denominated funds into Renminbi for our operations, appreciation of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar would have an adverse effect on the Renminbi amount we would receive from the conversion. Conversely, if we decide to convert our Renminbi into U.S. dollars for certain business purposes, appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the Renminbi would have a negative effect on the U.S. dollar amount available to us. Very limited hedging options are available in China to reduce our exposure to exchange rate fluctuations. To date, we have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk. While we may decide to enter into hedging transactions in the future, the availability and effectiveness of these hedges may be limited and we may not be able to adequately hedge our exposure or at all. In addition, our currency exchange losses may be magnified by PRC exchange control regulations that restrict our ability to convert Renminbi into foreign currency.
13
Contingent Liabilities
The Company had no material contingent liabilities as at December 31, 2025.
Employees And Remuneration
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had a total of 8,423 employees, compared to 8,088 as of December 31, 2024.
The following table sets forth the total number of employees by function:

As required under PRC regulations, the Company participates in housing funds and various employee social security plans that are organized by applicable local municipal and provincial governments, including housing funds, pension, maternity, medical, work-related injury and unemployment benefit plans, under which we make contributions at specified percentages of the salaries of its employees. We also purchase commercial health and accidental insurance for our employees. Bonuses are generally discretionary and based in part on employee performance and in part on the overall performance of the Group’s business. The Company has granted and plans to continue to grant share-based incentive awards to its employees in the future to incentivize their contributions to its growth and development.
14
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Compliance with the Corporate Governance Code
The Board is committed to achieving high corporate governance standards. The Board believes that high corporate governance standards are essential in providing a framework for the Company to safeguard the interests of shareholders and to enhance corporate value and accountability.
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, since which the Corporate Governance Code (the “Corporate Governance Code”) set forth in Appendix C1 to the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (the “Listing Rules”) has been applicable to the Company.
During the Reporting Period, the Company has complied with the code provisions of the Corporate Governance Code, save for the following:
Code provision C.2.1 of the Corporate Governance Code, recommends, but does not require, that the roles of chairman and chief executive officer should be separate and should not be performed by the same person. As Mr. Rui Chen performs both the roles of the chairman of the Board and the chief executive officer of the Company, there is a deviation from this code provision. Mr. Chen has extensive experience in the Company’s business operations and management. The Board believes that vesting the roles of both chairman and chief executive officer to Mr. Chen has the benefit of ensuring consistent leadership within the Company and enables more effective and efficient overall strategic planning. This structure will enable the Company to make and implement decisions promptly and effectively.
The Board considers that the balance of power and authority will not be impaired due to this arrangement. In addition, all major decisions are made in consultation with members of the Board, including the relevant Board committees, and four independent Directors. The Board will reassess the division of the roles of chairman and the chief executive officer from time to time, and may recommend dividing the two roles between different people in the future, taking into account the Company’s circumstances as a whole.
Code provision F.1.1 of the Corporate Governance Code (before its amendment that became effective on July 1, 2025) provided that an issuer should have a policy on payment of dividends and should disclose it in the annual report. As the Company does not have a dividend policy, there is a deviation from this code provision. The Board has complete discretion on whether to distribute dividends, subject to certain requirements of Cayman Islands law. Even if the Board decides to pay dividends, the form, frequency and amount will depend upon the Company’s future operations and earnings, capital requirements and surplus, general financial condition, contractual restrictions and other factors that the Board may deem relevant. The Company does not have any present plan to pay any cash dividends on its ordinary shares in the foreseeable future. The Company currently intends to retain most, if not all, of its available funds and any future earnings to operate and expand its business.
15
Compliance with the Model Code for Securities Transactions by Directors
The Company has adopted the Management Trading of Securities Policy (the “Code”), with terms no less exacting that the Model Code for Securities Transactions by Directors of Listed Issuers as set out in Appendix C3 to the Listing Rules, as its own securities dealing code to regulate all dealings by Directors and relevant employees of securities in the Company and other matters covered by the Code.
Specific enquiry has been made of all the Directors and the relevant employees and they have confirmed that they have complied with the Code during the Reporting Period and up to the date of this announcement.
Audit Committee
The Company has established the Audit Committee in compliance with Rule 3.21 of the Listing Rules and the Corporate Governance Code. The Audit Committee comprises three independent Directors, being Mr. Eric He, Mr. JP Gan and Mr. Feng Li, with Mr. Eric He (being our independent Director with the appropriate professional qualifications) as the chairperson of the Audit Committee.
The Audit Committee has reviewed the unaudited annual results of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2025 and has met with the independent auditor, PricewaterhouseCoopers. The Audit Committee has also discussed matters with respect to the accounting policies and practices adopted by the Company and internal control and financial reporting matters with senior management members of the Company.
Auditor’s Procedures Performed on this Announcement
The unaudited financial information disclosed in this announcement is preliminary. The audit of the financial statements and related notes to be included in the Company’s annual report to shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2025 is still in progress. The figures in respect of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss)/income, unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows and the related notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2025 as set out in the preliminary announcement have been agreed by the Company’s auditor, PricewaterhouseCoopers, to the amounts set out in the Company’s draft consolidated financial statements for the year. The work performed by PricewaterhouseCoopers in this respect did not constitute an assurance engagement in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing, Hong Kong Standards on Review Engagements or Hong Kong Standards on Assurance Engagements issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants and consequently no assurance has been expressed by PricewaterhouseCoopers on this announcement.
Events or issues may arise during the course of finalizing and issuing the audited consolidated financial statements of the Group that might result in the need to revise amounts in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

| 1. | Operations |
Bilibili Inc. (the “Company”) is an iconic brand and a leading video community for young generations in China. Incorporated as a limited liability company in the Cayman Islands in December 2013, the Company, through its consolidated subsidiaries, variable interest entities (“VIEs”) and subsidiaries of the VIEs (collectively referred to as the “Group”), is primarily engaged in the operation of providing online entertainment services to users in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC” or “China”).
In April 2018, the Company completed its IPO on the Nasdaq Global Select Market. In March 2021, the Company successfully listed its Class Z ordinary shares on the main board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
On October 3, 2022, the Company’s voluntary conversion of its secondary listing status to primary listing on the main board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange became effective. The Company became 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.
In January 2023, the Company completed an offering of 15,344,000 ADSs at US$26.65 per ADS. The amount of net proceeds from such offering (after deducting all applicable costs and expenses including but not limited to selling commission) is approximately US$396.9 million (RMB2.7 billion). Shortly thereafter, the Company completed repurchase of an aggregate principal amount of US$384.8 million of its outstanding 0.50% convertible senior notes due December 2026 with an aggregate purchase price of US$331.2 million (RMB2.2 billion), which was funded by the net proceeds from the ADS Offering.
| 2. | Significant Accounting Policies |
Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for annual financial information and the disclosure requirements of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The HKEx, as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time (the “HK Listing Rules”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted.
Use of estimates
The preparation of the Group’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with the U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the balance sheet date and reported revenues and expenses during the reported periods in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant accounting estimates include determination of the average playing period for paying players.

For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2025, the Company had potential ordinary shares, including share options and restricted share units (“RSUs”) granted, and ordinary shares issuable upon the conversion of the convertible senior notes, where applicable.
As the Group incurred losses for the year ended December 31, 2024, these potential ordinary shares were anti-dilutive and excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share. For the calculation of diluted net profit per share for the year ended December 31, 2025, net profit attributable to ordinary shareholders for basic net profit per share is adjusted by the effect of dilutive ordinary shares, including share options and RSUs granted, under the treasury stock method and convertible senior notes under the if-converted method.
