GAAP operating loss was US$18.3 million, narrower than a US$22.3 million loss a year earlier but wider than the US$6.7 million loss in the first quarter. A US$7.0 million income tax benefit, including about US$13 million from reversal of uncertain tax positions, led to GAAP net income attributable to Sohu.com Limited of US$0.97 million, or US$0.04 per basic and diluted ADS, compared with losses in both prior periods. Cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and long-term time deposits totaled about US$1.2 billion as of June 30, 2026.

The online game subsidiary Changyou generated US$117 million in revenues and US$55 million in GAAP operating profit in the quarter. The board amended Sohu’s share repurchase program to remove the November 10, 2026 end date, allowing repurchases of up to US$150 million in ADSs to continue on an open-ended basis; as of August 6, 2026, Sohu had repurchased 9.4 million ADSs for approximately US$124 million.

Filing Explained

The August 8 amendment leaves Sohu’s share-repurchase program open-ended until its US$150 million maximum is reached, but purchases remain discretionary and may be suspended or discontinued; the filing does not commit Sohu to complete the authorized repurchases.

Key Terms

6 terms

share repurchase program financial

"board of directors amended the period of Sohu’s previously-announced share repurchase program"

A share repurchase program is when a company buys back its own shares from the marketplace. This reduces the total number of shares available, which can increase the value of each remaining share and signal confidence in the company's prospects. For investors, it often suggests that the company believes its stock is undervalued or that it has extra cash to return to shareholders.

American depositary share financial

"net income of US$0.01 per fully-diluted American depositary share (“ADS,” 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.

non-GAAP financial

"management uses non-GAAP measures of gross profit, operating profit/(loss), net income/(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.

uncertain tax positions financial

"income tax benefit included reversal of a tax expense of approximately US$13 million due to a 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.

discontinued operations financial

"Net income from discontinued operations attributable to Sohu.com Limited was US$734"

Discontinued operations are parts of a company that it has decided to sell or shut down, and no longer plans to run in the future. This matters to investors because it helps them understand which parts of the business are ongoing and which are being phased out, providing a clearer picture of the company’s current performance and future prospects. Think of it like a store closing a department—it no longer contributes to sales or profits.

Rule 10b-18 regulatory

"at Sohu’s management’s discretion at prevailing market prices in accordance with Rule 10b-18 and Rule 10b5-1"

Rule 10b-18 is a regulation that sets strict rules for how a company's executives and employees can buy back their own company's stock from the market. It helps ensure that these buybacks happen in a fair and transparent way, reducing the chance of market manipulation. This is important for investors because it offers protection against unfair practices and promotes confidence in the integrity of the stock market.

Supplementary Information for Changyou Results³

Second Quarter 2026 Operating Results

• For PC games, total average monthly active user accounts⁴ (MAU) were 2.6 million, an increase of 10% year-over-year and a decrease of 5% quarter-over-quarter. Total quarterly aggregate active paying accounts⁵ (APA) were 1.0 million, an increase of 5% year-over-year and a decrease of 5% quarter-over-quarter. The year-over-year increase in MAU was mainly from Changyou’s PC game Tian Long Ba Bu (“TLBB”): Return, which was launched during the third quarter of 2025.

• For mobile games, total average MAU were 1.7 million, a decrease of 13% year-over-year and 2% quarter-over-quarter. Total quarterly APA were 0.2 million, a decrease of 24% year-over-year and 11% quarter-over-quarter. The year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter decreases in MAU and APA were mainly due to the natural decline of some of Changyou’s older games.

Second Quarter 2026 Unaudited Financial Results

Total revenues were US$117 million, an increase of 9% year-over-year and a decrease of 7% quarter-over-quarter. Online game revenues were US$116 million, an increase of 10% year-over-year and a decrease of 7% quarter-over-quarter.

Both GAAP and non-GAAP operating expenses were US$47 million, an increase of 14% year-over-year and 8% quarter-over-quarter. The year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter increases were mainly due to an increase in licensing fees related to product development.

Non-GAAP operating profit was US$56 million, compared with US$51 million for the second quarter of 2025 and US$66 million for the first quarter of 2026.

Recent Development

Sohu today announced that on August 8, 2026 its board of directors amended the period of Sohu’s previously-announced share repurchase program by removing the previous end date of November 10, 2026 and authorizing repurchases under the program to continue on an open-ended basis until the maximum authorized amount is reached. As previously announced, Sohu may purchase up to US$150 million of the outstanding ADSs of Sohu from time to time under the program at Sohu’s management’s discretion at prevailing market prices in accordance with Rule 10b-18 and Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Sohu’s management will continue to determine the timing and amount of any purchases of ADSs based on their evaluation of market conditions, the trading price of ADSs and other factors. The share repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time.

As of August 6, 2026, Sohu had repurchased 9.4 million ADSs for an aggregate cost of approximately US$124 million under the program.

Business Outlook

For the third quarter of 2026, Sohu estimates:

• Marketing services revenues to be between US$14 million and US$15 million; this implies an annual increase of 3% to 10%, and a sequential decrease of 1% to 8%.

• Online game revenues to be between US$105 million and US$115 million; this implies an annual decrease of 29% to 35%, and a sequential decrease of 1% to 10%.

• Both non-GAAP and GAAP net loss attributable to Sohu.com Limited to be between US$13 million and US$23 million.

For the third quarter 2026 guidance, the Company has adopted a presumed exchange rate of RMB6.81=US$1.00, as compared with the actual exchange rate of approximately RMB7.13=US$1.00 for the third quarter of 2025, and RMB6.84=US$1.00 for the second 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 gross profit, 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 gross profit, 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.

It is currently expected that the Business Outlook will not be updated until release of Sohu’s next quarterly earnings announcement; however, Sohu reserves right to update its Business Outlook at any time for any reason.

Further information regarding these and other risks is included in Sohu’s annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2025, and other filings with and information furnished to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
