Changyou Reports First Quarter 2015 Unaudited Financial Results
Beijing, China, April 27, 2015– Changyou.com Limited (“Changyou” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: CYOU), a leading online game developer and operator in China, today announced its unaudited financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2015.
First Quarter 2015 Highlights
| • | Total revenues were US$209 million, representing an increase of 15% year-over-year and a decrease of 3% quarter-over-quarter, exceeding guidance by US$9 million. |
| • | Online game revenues were US$185 million, representing an increase of 13% year-over-year and flat quarter-over-quarter, exceeding guidance by US$5 million. |
| • | Online advertising revenues were US$10 million, representing an increase of 4% year-over-year and a decrease of 47% quarter-over-quarter, and were in line with the Company’s guidance. |
| • | Non-GAAP1 net income attributable to Changyou.com Limited was US$52 million. This compares with non-GAAP net income attributable to Changyou.com Limited of US$14 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 and a non-GAAP net loss attributable to Changyou.com Limited of US$19 million in the first quarter of 2014. |
| • | Non-GAAP net income attributable to Changyou.com Limited per fully-diluted ADS2 was US$0.97. This compares with non-GAAP net income attributable to Changyou.com Limited per fully-diluted ADS of US$0.25 in the fourth quarter of 2014 and a non-GAAP net loss attributable to Changyou.com Limited per fully-diluted ADS of US$0.36 in the first quarter of 2014. |
Mr. Dewen Chen, Co-CEO, commented “We are pleased that our TLBB PC game has delivered another quarter of solid revenue and profitability, and we expect to see more PC game launches in the second half of the year, replacing some of our older games. Our focus now for mobile games is to bring out an abundant and diversified pipeline of new games, through in-house development and co-development.”
“On mobile Internet platforms, user engagement in our key markets remained stable, while we kept our marketing dollars at a minimum. We are convinced that the potential in mobile Internet products is yet to be unlocked and we will continue to explore new possibilities with a cost-conscious approach,” added Mr. Chen.
Ms. Jasmine Zhou, CFO of Changyou, concluded “We are pleased to report a good quarter with both top line and bottom line exceeding our guidance. Our revenue was $209 million, a 15% increase year-over-year, and exceeded our guidance by $9 million due to better than expected performance of each of our main business lines. Our non-GAAP net income attributable to Changyou was $52 million, compared with $14 million in the fourth quarter, and exceeded our guidance by $17 million. The margin improvements were a result of a clearer focus in our business plans and increased efficiency in execution. Our second quarter guidance is relatively softer due to the divestment of 7Road and seasonal slowdown from the TLBB PC game, as well as new games that will have been in operation for less than a quarter.”
| 1 | Non-GAAP results exclude share-based compensation expense, non-cash tax benefits from excess tax deductions related to share-based awards and income/expense from the adjustment of contingent consideration previously recorded for acquisitions. Explanation of the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures and related reconciliations to GAAP financial measures are included in the accompanying “Non-GAAP Disclosure” and “Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Results of Operations Measures to the Nearest Comparable GAAP Measures.” |
| 2 | Each ADS represents two Class A ordinary shares. |
First Quarter 2015 Operational Results
| • | Total average monthly active accounts3 of the Company’s MMO games were 4.9 million, representing a decrease of 25% year-over-year and 29% quarter-over-quarter. The year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter decreases were partially due to our continued efforts to shut down inauthentic accounts to ensure a balanced in-game environment for TLBB and were also a result of the natural progression of our older games. |
| • | Total average monthly active accounts of the Company’s mobile games were 4.4 million, representing an increase of 69% year-over-year and a decrease of 37% quarter-over-quarter. The year-over-year increase was largely due to the successful launch of the new mobile game TLBB 3D. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was largely because user engagement of TLBB 3D cooled down after the initial debut of the game, which is typical for a mobile game. |
| • | Total quarterly aggregate active paying accounts4 of the Company’s MMO games were 1.1 million, representing a decrease of 27% year-over-year and 15% quarter-over-quarter. The year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter decreases were a result of the natural progression of our older games. |
| • | Total quarterly aggregate active paying accounts of the Company’s mobile games were 0.9 million, representing an increase of 800% year-over-year and a decrease of 40% quarter-over-quarter. The year-over-year increase was largely due to the successful launch of the new mobile game TLBB 3D. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was largely because user engagement of TLBB 3D cooled down after the initial debut of the game, which is typical for a mobile game. |
First Quarter 2015 Unaudited Financial Results
Revenues
Total revenues were US$209 million, representing an increase of 15% year-over-year and a decrease of 3% quarter-over-quarter, exceeding the Company’s guidance by US$9 million.
Online game revenues were US$185 million, representing an increase of 13% year-over-year and flat quarter-over-quarter, exceeding the Company’s guidance by US$5 million. The year-over-year increase was mainly due to the launch of TLBB 3D in the fourth quarter of 2014.
Online advertising revenues were US$10 million, representing an increase of 4% year-over-year and a decrease of 47% quarter-over-quarter. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was mainly due to a seasonal slowdown in advertising typical of the first quarter.
Internet value-added services (“IVAS”) revenues increased 64% year-over-year and decreased 10% quarter-over-quarter to US$6 million. The year-over-year increase was mainly due to increased revenues from new PC and mobile products, including the Dolphin Browser, which was acquired in 2014. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was mainly due to decreased revenues from wan.com, the Company’s platform for operating Web games of third-party developers, as the Company closed this website during the first quarter.
Other revenues, which consist of cinema advertising revenues, increased 81% year-over-year and 22% quarter-over-quarter to US$8 million. The year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter increases reflected an upgrade in advertising resources as well as improvements made to the advertising sales function.
| 3 | Average Monthly Active Accounts for a given period refers to the number of registered accounts that were logged in to these games at least once during the period. |
| 4 | Quarterly Aggregate Active Paying Accounts for a given period refers to the number of accounts from which game points are utilized at least once during the quarter. |
Gross profit
Both GAAP and non-GAAP gross profit were flat year-over-year and decreased 3% quarter-over-quarter to US$143 million. Both GAAP and non-GAAP gross margin were 69%, compared with 68% in the fourth quarter of 2014 and 78% in the first quarter of 2014.
Both GAAP and non-GAAP gross profit of the online games business were flat year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter at US$136 million. Both GAAP and non-GAAP gross margin of the online games business were 73%, compared with 72% in the fourth quarter of 2014 and 84% in the first quarter of 2014. The year-over-year decreases in gross margin were mainly due to a change in the revenue mix as the Company launched new mobile games and licensed PC games that typically require additional revenue-sharing payments.
GAAP and non-GAAP gross profit of the online advertising business both decreased 59% quarter-over-quarter and increased 10% and 8%, respectively, year-over-year to US$6 million. GAAP gross margin of the online advertising business was 64%, compared with 82% in the fourth quarter of 2014, and 61% in the first quarter of 2014. Non-GAAP gross margin of the online advertising business was 64%, compared with 82% in the fourth quarter of 2014 and 62% in the first quarter of 2014. The quarter-over-quarter decreases in gross margins were due to a decrease in online advertising revenues in the first quarter of 2015.
Both GAAP and non-GAAP gross loss for the IVAS business were US$0.2 million. This compares with a gross loss of US$1 million in the fourth quarter of 2014, and US$0.2 million in the first quarter of 2014.
Both GAAP and non-GAAP gross profit of the other business were US$2 million. This compares with a gross profit of US$0.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 and a gross loss of US$1 million in the first quarter of 2014.
Operating expenses
Total operating expenses were US$91 million, representing a decrease of 47% year-over-year and a decrease of 39% quarter-over-quarter.
Product development expenses were US$45 million, representing a decrease of 35% year-over-year and an increase of 101% quarter-over-quarter. The year-over-year decrease resulted primarily from an accrual of $25 million that had been taken in the first quarter of 2014 for estimated compensation expense associated with three employee incentive plans. Such accrual was reversed in the fourth quarter of 2014, due to lowered estimates based on management’s latest reassessment of the estimated compensation liabilities for the three employee incentive plans. These three employment incentive plans were cancelled in first quarter of 2015 and therefore no such accrual was made in the first quarter of 2015. The quarter-over-quarter increase in product development expenses was a result of the reversal’s having been recognized in the fourth quarter of 2014. The Company is implementing a new cash bonus plan that it considers more effective in incentivizing employees under current market trends.
Sales and marketing expenses were US$22 million, representing a decrease of 73% year-over-year and a decrease of 43% quarter-over-quarter. The year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter decreases were mainly due to a significant reduction in marketing and promotional spending for mobile internet products over the last two quarters.
General and administrative expenses were US$23 million, representing an increase of 10% year-over-year and a decrease of 35% quarter-over-quarter. The year-over-year increase was due to an increase in share-based compensation as more share options were granted the fourth quarter of 2014. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was mainly due to a reduction in severance payments as well as a reduction in salary and benefits expense, as a result of a reduction in redundant workforce that was implemented in the fourth quarter of 2014.
Operating profit
Operating profit was US$53 million. This compares with an operating loss of US$2 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 and of US$30 million in the first quarter of 2014. The positive change resulted from a reduction in marketing and promotional spending for mobile Internet products over the last two quarters, as well as an overall increase in operating efficiencies.
Non-GAAP operating profit was US$56 million. This compares with US$1 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 and a non-GAAP operating loss of US$30 million in the first quarter of 2014.
Income tax expense
In March 2015, the Company’s main operating entity in China was approved as a “2015 National High-Tech Enterprise” and, as a result, the entity is entitled to a preferential corporate income tax rate of 15% for the 2015-2016 tax years.
The Company recorded income tax expense of US$12 million in the first quarter of 2015. This compares with income tax expense of US$7 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 and income tax benefit of US$3 million in the first quarter of 2014.
Net income
Net income was US$47 million. This compares with a net loss US$4 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 and a net loss US$20 million in the first quarter of 2014.
Non-GAAP net income was US$51 million. This compares with a net loss of US$1 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 and of US$20 million in the first quarter of 2014.
Net loss attributable to non-controlling interests
Both GAAP and non-GAAP net loss attributable to non-controlling interests were US$1 million in the first quarter of 2015, compared with GAAP and non-GAAP net loss of US$15 million in the fourth quarter of 2014, and GAAP and non-GAAP net loss of US$0.4 million in the first quarter of 2014. Non-controlling interests represent the non-controlling interests in RaidCall and in MoboTap Inc. (“MoboTap”) the developer of the Dolphin Browser.
Net income attributable to Changyou.com Limited
Net income attributable to Changyou.com Limited was US$48 million. This compares with net income attributable to Changyou.com Limited of US$11 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 and a net loss attributable to Changyou.com Limited of US$19 million in the first quarter of 2014.

Non-GAAP Disclosure
Revision of Non-GAAP Reporting
Prior to 2014 Q4, the Company’s determined its non-GAAP results excluding share-based compensation expense, goodwill impairment, impairment of intangibles via acquisitions of businesses and related tax impact, non-cash tax benefits from excess tax deductions related to share-based awards and income/expense from the adjustment of contingent consideration previously recorded for acquisitions”.
In 2014 Q4, we reassessed our definition of non-GAAP to better reflect the economic substance and performance of the Company. With the consideration that goodwill impairment and impairment of intangibles via acquisitions of businesses can be an indicator of the economic substance of the acquired businesses, we revised the definition of non-GAAP that we use, and excluded only compensation expense of share-based awards, non-cash tax benefits from excess tax deductions related to share-based awards and income/expense from adjustments of contingent consideration previously recorded for acquisitions.
Our 2015 Q1 results are presented using this revised definition of non-GAAP.
Non-GAAP Disclosure
To supplement the unaudited consolidated financial information prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), Changyou’s management uses non-GAAP measures of gross profit, operating profit, net income, net income attributable to Changyou.com Limited and diluted net income attributable to Changyou.com Limited per ADS, which are adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude the compensation cost of share-based awards granted, non-cash tax benefits from excess tax deductions related to share-based awards and income/expense from the adjustment of contingent consideration previously recorded for acquisitions. 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.
Changyou’s management believes that excluding share-based compensation expense, non-cash tax benefits from excess tax deductions related to share-based awards and income/expense from the adjustment of contingent consideration previously recorded for acquisitions from its non-GAAP financial measures is useful for itself and investors. Further, the amount of share-based compensation expense, non-cash tax benefits from excess tax deductions related to share-based awards and income/expense from the adjustment of contingent consideration previously recorded for acquisitions cannot be anticipated by management, and these expenses are not built into the Company’s annual budgets and quarterly forecasts, which generally will be the basis for information Changyou provides to analysts and investors as guidance for future operating performance. As share-based compensation expense, non-cash tax benefits from excess tax deductions related to share-based awards and income/expense from the adjustment of contingent consideration previously recorded for acquisitions does not involve subsequent cash outflow, Changyou does not factor this in when evaluating and approving expenditures or when determining the allocation of its resources to its business operations. As a result, in general, the monthly financial results for internal reporting and any performance measure for commissions and bonuses are based on non-GAAP financial measures that exclude share-based compensation expense, non-cash tax benefits from excess tax deductions related to share-based awards and income/expense from the adjustment of contingent consideration previously recorded for acquisitions.
The non-GAAP financial measures are provided to enhance investors’ overall understanding of Changyou’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 Changyou.com Limited and diluted net income attributable to Changyou.com Limited per ADS, excluding share-based compensation expense, non-cash tax benefits from excess tax deductions related to share-based awards and income/expense from the adjustment of contingent consideration previously recorded for acquisitions, is that the share-based compensation charge has been and will continue to be a significant recurring expense in the Company’s business for the foreseeable future, non-cash tax benefits from excess tax deductions related to share-based awards and income/expense from the adjustment of contingent consideration previously recorded for acquisitions may recur in the future. In order to mitigate these limitations the Company has provided specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from each non-GAAP measure. The accompanying tables include details on the reconciliation between GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to the non-GAAP financial measures the Company has presented.
Notes to Financial Information
Financial information in this press release other than the information indicated as being non-GAAP is derived from Changyou’s unaudited financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
