How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

non-GAAP financial
"non-GAAP measures of operating profit/(loss)"
Non-GAAP refers to financial measures that companies use to show their earnings or performance without including certain expenses or income that are often added back to give a different picture. It matters because it can make a company's results look better or more favorable, but it may also hide important costs, so investors need to look at both GAAP (official rules) and non-GAAP numbers to get a full understanding.
share-based compensation expense financial
"exclude the impact of share-based compensation expense"
Share-based compensation expense is the accounting cost a company records when it pays employees or executives with stock, stock options, or other equity instead of cash. It matters to investors because it reduces reported profits and can dilute existing owners’ stake over time — like a bakery paying workers with slices of cake instead of money, leaving fewer slices for original owners and changing each slice’s value.
uncertain tax positions financial
"reversal of uncertain tax positions"
A tax return line or claim for which a company cannot be certain the tax authority will agree, so the company records an estimate of the potential additional tax, interest, and penalties it might owe. Think of it like a disputed bill: management judges the chance and size of a payment and books a liability for the portion it expects to be required, which matters to investors because it can change reported profits, cash needs, and the company's financial risk profile.
American depositary share financial
"each ADS representing one Sohu ordinary share"
An American Depositary Share (ADS) is a U.S.-listed certificate that represents a specified number of shares in a foreign company, held by a custodian bank; it works like a receipt that allows U.S. investors to buy and trade foreign equity on American exchanges without dealing with another country’s markets. Investors care because ADSs make foreign stocks easier to access, improve liquidity and settlement in dollars, and can affect dividend payments, voting rights and regulatory oversight compared with buying the underlying foreign shares directly.

Supplementary Information for Changyou Results3

Third Quarter 2026 Operating Results

 

  •  

For PC games, total average monthly active user accounts4 (MAU) were 2.6 million, a decrease of 4% year-over-year and flat quarter-over-quarter. Total quarterly aggregate active paying accounts5 (APA) were 1.0 million, a decrease of 8% year-over-year and an increase of 4% quarter-over-quarter. The year-over-year decrease in APA was mainly due to the natural decline of Changyou’s older games, including Tian Long Ba Bu (“TLBB”) PC, and to the natural decline of TLBB: Return, which was launched during the third quarter of 2025.

 

  •  

For mobile games, total average MAU were 1.4 million, a decrease of 24% year-over-year and 16% quarter-over-quarter. Total quarterly APA were 0.2 million, a decrease of 25% year-over-year and 4% quarter-over-quarter. The year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter decreases in MAU and APA were mainly due to the natural decline of Changyou’s older games.

Third Quarter 2026 Unaudited Financial Results

Total revenues were US$115 million, a decrease of 30% year-over-year and 2% quarter-over-quarter. Online game revenues were US$114 million, a decrease of 30% year-over-year and 2% quarter-over-quarter. For online game revenues, the year-over-year decrease was mainly due to a natural decline from a high comparison base driven by content updates released for TLBB PC and the launch of TLBB: Return in the third quarter of 2025.

Both GAAP and non-GAAP total cost of revenues were US$14 million, a decrease of 33% year-over-year and an increase of 2% quarter-over-quarter.

Both GAAP and non-GAAP operating expenses were US$42 million, a decrease of 23% year-over-year and 12% quarter-over-quarter. The year-over-year decrease was mainly due to a decrease in salary and benefits expenses, as well as a decrease in marketing and promotional spending for our online games. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was mainly due to a decrease in licensing fees related to product development.

5

GAAP operating profit was US$58 million, compared with US$87 million for the third quarter of 2025 and US$55 million for the second quarter of 2026.

Non-GAAP operating profit was US$59 million, compared with US$88 million for the third quarter of 2025 and US$56 million for the second quarter of 2026.

Recent Development

Under the previously-announced share repurchase program of up to US$150 million of the outstanding ADSs, Sohu had repurchased 10.1 million ADSs for an aggregate cost of approximately US$134 million as of November 5, 2026.

Business Outlook

For the fourth quarter of 2026, Sohu estimates:

 

  •  

Marketing services revenues to be between US$13 million and US$14 million; this implies an annual decrease of 18% to 24%, and a sequential decrease of 6% to 13%.

 

  •  

Online game revenues to be between US$111 million and US$121 million; this implies an annual decrease of 8% to an annual increase of 1%, and a sequential decrease of 3% to a sequential increase of 6%.

 

  •  

Both non-GAAP and GAAP net loss attributable to Sohu.com Limited to be between US$17 million and US$27 million.

For the fourth quarter 2026 guidance, the Company has adopted a presumed exchange rate of RMB6.73=US$1.00, as compared with the actual exchange rate of approximately RMB7.08=US$1.00 for the fourth quarter of 2025, and RMB6.78=US$1.00 for the third quarter of 2026.

This forecast reflects Sohu’s management’s current and preliminary view, which is subject to substantial uncertainty.

Non-GAAP Disclosure

To supplement the unaudited consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), Sohu’s management uses non-GAAP measures of operating profit/(loss), net income/(loss), net income/(loss) attributable to Sohu.com Limited and diluted net income/(loss) attributable to Sohu.com Limited per ADS, which are adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude the impact of share-based compensation expense. These measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results.

Sohu’s management believes excluding share-based compensation expense from the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures is useful for itself and investors. Further, the impact of share-based compensation expense could not be anticipated by management and business line leaders, and these expenses were not built into the annual budgets and quarterly forecasts that have been the basis for information Sohu provides to analysts and investors as guidance for future operating performance. As share-based compensation expense does not involve subsequent cash outflow and is not reflected in the cash flows at the equity transaction level, Sohu does not factor in its impact when evaluating and approving expenditures or when determining the allocation of its resources to its business segments. As a result, in general, the monthly financial results for internal reporting and any performance measures for commissions and bonuses are based on non-GAAP financial measures that exclude share-based compensation expense.

The non-GAAP financial measures are provided to enhance investors’ overall understanding of Sohu’s current financial performance and prospects for the future. A limitation of using non-GAAP operating profit/(loss), net income/(loss), net income/(loss) attributable to Sohu.com Limited, and diluted net income/(loss) attributable to Sohu.com Limited per ADS excluding share-based compensation expense is that this expense has been and can be expected to continue to recur in Sohu’s business. In order to mitigate these limitations Sohu has provided specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from each non-GAAP measure. The accompanying tables include details on the reconciliation between the GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to the non-GAAP financial measures that have been presented.

Notes to Financial Information

Financial information in this press release other than the information indicated as being non-GAAP is derived from Sohu’s unaudited financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
