BEIJING, July 31, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Sohu.com Inc.
(NASDAQ: SOHU), China's leading
online media, video, search and gaming business group, today
reported unaudited financial results for the second quarter ended
June 30, 2017.
Second Quarter Highlights
- Total revenues were US$461
million1, up 10% year-over-year and 23%
quarter-over-quarter.
- Brand advertising revenues were US$86
million, down 24% year-over-year and up 6%
quarter-over-quarter.
- Sogou2 revenues were US$211
million, up 20% year-over-year and 30%
quarter-over-quarter.
- Online game revenues were US$122
million, up 23% year-over-year and 43%
quarter-over-quarter.
- GAAP net loss attributable to Sohu.com Inc. was US$89 million, or US$2.28 loss per fully-diluted share.
- Non-GAAP3 net loss attributable to Sohu.com Inc. was
US$72 million, or US$1.85 loss per fully-diluted share.
Dr. Charles Zhang, Chairman and
CEO of Sohu.com Inc., commented, "I am pleased that Sohu delivered
better-than-expected revenue growth in the second quarter, driven
by solid performance from Changyou and Sogou. Group revenues
totaled US$461 million, up 10%
year-over-year and 23% quarter-over-quarter. The highlight of the
quarter was Legacy TLBB, our new mobile game that is a big hit and
ranked as one of the top grossing games in China between its launch in mid-May and the
end of the quarter. Sogou's financial results exceeded our prior
guidance as its mobile search growth maintained strong momentum.
Our brand advertising business performance was relatively soft,
largely due to lackluster video ad sales. Nonetheless, for Sohu
Video, we have been shifting our content focus to self-developed
dramas. We expect the move to generate substantial cost savings and
improve our bottom-line results in 2018."
Mr. Xiaochuan Wang, CEO of Sogou,
commented, "In the second quarter, Sogou Search continued to gain
market share as aggregate search traffic grew 24% from a year ago,
driven by over 50% growth in mobile traffic. Benefiting from strong
traffic growth, quarterly revenues reached US$211 million, up 20% year-over-year,
continuously outpacing the industry. We also solidified the No. 1
position for our Chinese input application Sogou Mobile Keyboard as
its user base expanded 70% in a year. In the meantime, we continued
to promote AI-empowered technology and product innovations by
integrating our proprietary technologies, like question &
answer and voice and machine translation, into our core products,
including Sogou Search and Sogou Mobile Keyboard. These new
capabilities also lay a solid foundation for our new products in
the future."
[1] On a constant
currency (non-GAAP) basis, if the exchange rate in the second
quarter of 2017 had been the same as it was in the second quarter
of 2016, or RMB6.53=US$1.00, US$ total revenues in the second
quarter of 2017 would have been US$484 million, or US$23 million
higher than GAAP total revenues, and up 15%
year-over-year.

Second Quarter Financial Results
Revenues
Total revenues for the second quarter of 2017 were US$461 million, up 10% year-over-year and 23%
quarter-over-quarter.
Total online advertising revenues, which include revenues from
the brand advertising and search and search-related advertising
businesses, for the second quarter of 2017 were US$273 million, flat year-over-year and up 22%
quarter-over-quarter.
Brand advertising revenues for the second quarter of 2017
totaled US$86 million, down 24%
year-over-year and up 6% quarter-over-quarter. The year-over-year
decrease was mainly attributable to decreases in revenues from the
video and real estate advertising businesses. The
quarter-over-quarter increase was mainly attributable to the
seasonality increase in revenues from the media
portal.
Search and search-related advertising revenues for the second
quarter of 2017 were US$187 million,
up 17% year-over-year and 31% quarter-over-quarter. The increases
were mainly driven by healthy growth in mobile traffic and
monetization.
Online game revenues for the second quarter of 2017 were
US$122 million, up 23% year-over-year
and 43% quarter-over-quarter. The year-over-year and
quarter-over-quarter increases were mainly due to the successful
launch of a new mobile game, Legacy TLBB, in the second
quarter.
Gross Margin
GAAP gross margin for the second quarter of 2017 was 40%,
compared with 49% in the second quarter of 2016 and 41% in the
first quarter of 2017. Non-GAAP gross margin for the second quarter
of 2017 was 40%, compared with 49% in the second quarter of 2016
and 42% in the first quarter of 2017.
Both GAAP and non-GAAP gross margin for the online advertising
business for the second quarter of 2017 was 19%, compared with 39%
in the second quarter of 2016 and 27% in the first quarter of
2017.
GAAP gross margin for the brand advertising business in the
second quarter of 2017 was -45%, compared with 17% in the second
quarter of 2016 and 1% in the first quarter of 2017. Non-GAAP gross
margin for the brand advertising business was -45%, compared with
17% in the second quarter of 2016 and 2% in the first quarter of
2017. In the second quarter of 2017, the Company recognized
impairment charges of approximately US$45
million in video content cost as the result of
softer-than-expected video advertising sales.
Both GAAP and non-GAAP gross margin for the search and
search-related advertising business in the second quarter of 2017
was 48%, compared with 55% in the second quarter of 2016 and 42% in
the first quarter of 2017. The year-over-year decrease was mainly
due to higher traffic acquisition cost as a percentage of search
and search-related advertising revenues. The quarter-over-quarter
increase was due to normal seasonal fluctuation.
Both GAAP and non-GAAP gross margin for online games in the
second quarter of 2017 was 91%, compared with 74% in the second
quarter of 2016 and 81% in the first quarter of 2017. The
year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter increases in gross margin
were due to the successful second quarter launch of Legacy TLBB,
which has a relatively high gross margin as its revenue is
recognized on a net basis after revenue-sharing payments to the
third party licensee operator.
Operating
Expenses
For the second quarter of 2017, GAAP operating expenses totaled
US$223 million, down 6%
year-over-year and up 10% quarter-over-quarter. Non-GAAP operating
expenses were US$210 million, down
10% year-over-year and up 8% quarter-over-quarter. The
year-over-year decrease was mainly due to decreased expenses for
marketing and promotion activities. The quarter-over-quarter
increase was mainly due to increased product development costs
associated with new games of Changyou.
Operating Loss
GAAP operating loss for the second quarter of 2017 was
US$40 million, compared with an
operating loss of US$29 million in
the second quarter of 2016 and an operating loss of US$47 million in the first quarter of 2017.
Non-GAAP operating loss for the second quarter of 2017 was
US$27 million, compared with an
operating loss of US$26 million in
the second quarter of 2016 and an operating loss of US$40 million in the first quarter of 2017.

of US$11 million in the first quarter
of 2017.

compared with a net loss of US$63
million in the second quarter of 2016 and a net loss of

Liquidity

Recent development
On July 31, 2017, Changyou
announced that Jasmine Zhou has
submitted to the Changyou Board of Directors her resignation as its
Chief Financial Officer for personal reasons. Ms. Zhou has
agreed that she will remain in her current position for a suitable
period, in order to allow Changyou's management and Board to
identify a suitable replacement.
Business Outlook
For the third quarter of 2017, Sohu estimates:
- Total revenues to be between US$480
million and US$510 million.
- Brand advertising revenues to be between US$70 million and US$80 million; this implies an
annual decrease of 28% to 37% and a sequential decrease of 7% to
19%.
- Sogou revenues to be between US$230
million and US$240 million; this implies an annual increase
of 39% to 45% and a sequential increase of 9% to 14%.
- Online game revenues to be between US$120 million and US$130 million; this implies
an annual increase of 22% to 32% and a sequential decrease of 2% to
a sequential increase of 6%.
- Before deducting the share of non-GAAP net income pertaining to
non-controlling interest, non-GAAP net income/loss to be
between a net loss of US$5
million and net income of US$5
million. Assuming no new grants of share-based awards and
that the market price of our shares is unchanged, we estimate that
compensation expense relating to share-based awards will be
around US$4 million. Including the impact of these share-based
awards, GAAP net income/loss before non-controlling interest to
be between a net loss of US$9 million and net
income of US$1 million.
- Non-GAAP net loss attributable to Sohu.com Inc. to be
between US$39 million and US$49
million, and non-GAAP loss per fully-diluted share to be
between US$1.00 and US$1.25.
Including the impact of the aforementioned share-based awards, and
netting off approximately US$1 million of Sohu's economic
interests in Changyou and Sogou, GAAP net loss attributable
to Sohu.com Inc. to be
between US$42 million and US$52 million, and GAAP
loss per fully-diluted share to be between US$1.08
and US$1.34.
For the third quarter 2017 guidance, the Company has adopted a
presumed exchange rate of RMB7.00=US$1.00, as
compared with the actual exchange rate of approximately
RMB6.66=US$1.00 for the third quarter of 2016, and
RMB6.86=US$1.00 for the second quarter of
2017.
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, net income, net income
attributable to Sohu.com Inc. and diluted net income attributable
to Sohu.com Inc. per share, which are adjusted from results based
on GAAP to exclude the impact of the share-based awards, which
consist mainly of share-based compensation expenses and non-cash
tax benefits from excess tax deductions related to share-based
awards, income/expense from the adjustment of contingent
consideration previously recorded for acquisitions, and dividend
and deemed dividend to non-controlling preferred shareholders.
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 the share-based
compensation expense, non-cash tax benefits from excess tax
deductions related to share-based awards, income/expense from the
adjustment of contingent consideration previously recorded for
acquisitions and dividend and deemed dividend to non-controlling
preferred shareholders from its non-GAAP financial measure is
useful for itself and investors. Further, the impact of share-based
compensation expense, non-cash tax benefits from excess tax
deductions related to share-based awards, income/expense from the
adjustment of contingent consideration previously recorded for
acquisitions, and dividend and deemed dividend to non-controlling
preferred shareholders cannot be anticipated by management and
business line leaders and these expenses were not built into the
annual budgets and quarterly forecasts, which have been the basis
for information Sohu provides to analysts and investors as guidance
for future operating performance. As the impact of share-based
compensation expense, non-cash tax benefits from excess tax
deductions related to share-based awards, income/expense from the
adjustment of contingent consideration previously recorded for
acquisitions, and dividend and deemed dividend to non-controlling
preferred shareholders does not involve subsequent cash outflow or
is reflected in the cash flows at the equity transaction level,
Sohu does not factor this impact in 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 the share-based compensation
expense, non-cash tax benefits from excess tax deductions
related to share-based awards, income/expense from the adjustment
of contingent consideration previously recorded for acquisitions,
and dividend and deemed dividend to non-controlling preferred
shareholders.
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, net income, net income
attributable to Sohu.com Inc. and diluted net income attributable
to Sohu.com Inc. per share, excluding share-based compensation
expense, non-cash tax benefits from excess tax deductions
related to share-based awards, income/expense from the adjustment
of contingent consideration previously recorded for acquisitions,
and dividend and deemed dividend to non-controlling preferred
shareholders is that the impact of share-based awards and non-cash
tax benefits from excess tax deductions related to share-based
awards has been and will continue to be a significant recurring
expense in Sohu's business for the foreseeable future,
income/expense from the adjustment of contingent consideration
previously recorded for acquisitions may recur in the future,
and dividend and deemed dividend to non-controlling preferred
shareholders may recur when Sohu and its affiliates enter into
equity transactions. 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 interim financial statements prepared in accordance with
GAAP.

Note:
(a) In the third
quarter of 2016, the Company's management had an intention to
divest the Company's interest in MoboTap. Therefore, the assets and
liabilities of MoboTap were recognized as assets-held-for-sale and
liabilities-held-for-sale, respectively, in the Company's financial
statements for the third and fourth quarters of 2016. In the
first quarter of 2017, the Company's management determined that the
disposal was unlikely to be completed within one year. As a result,
the assets-held-for-sale and liabilities-held-for-sale related to
MoboTap have been reclassified as assets and liabilities in the
Company's balance sheet as of June 30, 2017.
