Net revenues from mobile games accounted for approximately 65.3% of net revenues from the operation of online games for the fourth quarter of 2024, compared with 70.8% and 76.7% for the preceding quarter and the same quarter of 2023, respectively. The change in revenue mix was mainly due to the increased net revenues from PC games, including certain licensed titles. \nNet revenues from Youdao were RMB1.3 billion (US$183.6 million) for the fourth quarter of 2024, compared with RMB1.6 billion and RMB1.5 billion for the preceding quarter and the same quarter of 2023, respectively. \nNet revenues from NetEase Cloud Music were RMB1.9 billion (US$257.6 million) for the fourth quarter of 2024, compared with RMB2.0 billion each for the preceding quarter and the same quarter of 2023. \nNet revenues from innovative businesses and others were RMB2.3 billion (US$313.1 million) for the fourth quarter of 2024, compared with RMB1.8 billion and RMB2.8 billion for the preceding quarter and the same quarter of 2023, respectively.\nGross Profit\nGross profit for the fourth quarter of 2024 was RMB16.3 billion (US$2.2 billion), compared with RMB16.5 billion and RMB16.8 billion for the preceding quarter and the same quarter of 2023, respectively.\nThe quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year decreases in games and related value-added services' gross profit were primarily due to decreased net revenues from certain mobile games, partially offset by increased net revenues from PC games, including certain licensed titles.\nThe quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year decreases in Youdao's gross profit were primarily due to decreased net revenues from its learning services.\nThe quarter-over-quarter decrease in NetEase Cloud Music's gross profit was primarily due to decreased net revenues from social entertainment services.\nThe quarter-over-quarter increase in innovative businesses and others' gross profit was primarily due to increased gross profit from Yanxuan and advertising services.

The quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year decreases were mainly due to decreased marketing expenditures related to games and related value-added services.\nOther Income/(Expenses)\nOther income/(expenses) consisted of investment (losses)/income, interest income, exchange gains/(losses) and others. The quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year increases were mainly due to net exchange gains in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared with net exchange losses recorded in the preceding quarter and the same quarter of 2023.\nIncome Tax\nThe Company recorded a net income tax charge of RMB1.4 billion (US$189.7 million) for the fourth quarter of 2024, compared with RMB1.3 billion and RMB1.1 billion for the preceding quarter and the same quarter of 2023, respectively.

Net revenues from the operation of online games accounted for approximately 96.2% of the segment's total net revenues for fiscal year 2024, compared with 92.9% for fiscal year 2023. Net revenues from mobile games accounted for approximately 72.7% of net revenues from the operation of online games for fiscal year 2024, compared with 75.2% for fiscal year 2023.

The year-over-year increase was primarily due to higher research and development investments for games and related value-added services.\nOther Income/(Expenses) \nThe year-over-year decrease was mainly due to higher impairment provisions related to certain investments, which was partially offset by higher interest income resulting from the Company's increased net cash position.\nIncome Taxes\nThe Company recorded a net income tax charge of RMB5.5 billion (US$748.2 million) for fiscal year 2024, compared with RMB4.7 billion for fiscal year 2023.

These statements are made under the \"safe harbor\" provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. You can identify these forward-looking statements by terminology such as \"will,\" \"expects,\" \"anticipates,\" \"future,\" \"intends,\" \"plans,\" \"believes,\" \"estimates\" and similar expressions. In addition, statements that are not historical facts, including statements about NetEase's strategies and business plans, its expectations regarding the growth of its business and its revenue and the quotations from management in this announcement are or contain forward-looking statements. NetEase may also make forward-looking statements in its periodic reports to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the \"SEC\"), in announcements made on the website of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the \"Hong Kong Stock Exchange\"), in press releases and other written materials and in oral statements made by its officers, directors or employees to third parties. The accuracy of these statements may be impacted by a number of business risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or anticipated, including risks related to: the risk that the online games market will not continue to grow or that NetEase will not be able to maintain its position in that market in China or globally; risks associated with NetEase's business and operating strategies and its ability to implement such strategies; NetEase's ability to develop and manage its operations and business; competition for, among other things, capital, technology and skilled personnel; potential changes in regulation environment in the markets where NetEase operates; the risk that NetEase may not be able to continuously develop new and creative online services or that NetEase will not be able to set, or follow in a timely manner, trends in the market; risks related to evolving economic cycles and geopolitical events; risks related to the expansion of NetEase's businesses and operations internationally; risks associated with cybersecurity threats or incidents; and fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates that could adversely affect NetEase's business and financial results. Further information regarding these and other risks is included in NetEase's filings with the SEC and announcements on the website of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. NetEase does not undertake any obligation to update this forward-looking information, except as required under applicable law.\nNon-GAAP Financial Measures \nNetEase considers and uses non-GAAP financial measures, such as non-GAAP net income attributable to the Company's shareholders and non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per ADS and per share, as supplemental metrics in reviewing and assessing its operating performance and formulating its business plan. The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (\"U.S. GAAP\").\nNetEase defines non-GAAP net income attributable to the Company's shareholders as net income attributable to the Company's shareholders excluding share-based compensation expenses. Non-GAAP net income attributable to the Company's shareholders enables NetEase's management to assess its operating results without considering the impact of share-based compensation expenses. NetEase believes that this non-GAAP financial measure provides useful information to investors in understanding and evaluating the Company's current operating performance and prospects in the same manner as management does, if they so choose. NetEase also believes that the use of this non-GAAP financial measure facilitates investors' assessment of its operating performance.\nNon-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. One of the key limitations of using non-GAAP net income attributable to the Company's shareholders is that it does not reflect all items of expense/ income that affect our operations. Share-based compensation expenses have been and may continue to be incurred in NetEase's business and are not reflected in the presentation of non-GAAP net income attributable to the Company's shareholders. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures NetEase uses may differ from the non-GAAP measures used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited.\nNetEase compensates for these limitations by reconciling non-GAAP net income attributable to the Company's shareholders to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measure, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company's performance. See the unaudited reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP results at the end of this announcement. NetEase encourages you to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.\nContact for Media and Investors:Email: ir@service.netease.comTel: (+86)
