Revenue profile: both games and advertising achieved sturdy growth
Games:
the segment saw revenue increase 13% yoy to RMB1.01bn in Q2E, exceeding BBG by 5.5%. Growth was driven mainly by the company’s exclusively licensed strategy game, Three Kingdoms: Conquer the World, launched in June 2024.
Advertising:
revenue from this business grew 30% yoy to RMB2.04bn, exceeding BBG by 2.0%, as the company continued to improve its advertising efficiency and optimize its advertising products. We feel that Bilibili has demonstrated its ability to convert premium user traffic into ad revenue. For this segment, it has transitioned from building mindshare to boosting market traction gains, with full-value-chain transactions being driven by an integrated marketing and advertising business model.
VAS:
revenue from value-added services rose 11% yoy to RMB2.57bn, lower than BBG by 3.1%. The main reason was an increase in the number of paying users for premium memberships, livestreaming and other VAS. During the 618 mid-year shopping festival, gross merchandise value of video and livestreaming products shot up 140% yoy. As more products and functionalities become available for livestreams, supply could improve significantly and help increase revenue and optimize gross profit in this segment.
IP derivatives & others:
revenue slipped 4% to RMB516.4m but still beat BBG by 5.4%.

《三國：謀定天下》驅動本季度遊戲收入增長。《三國：謀定天下》是公司代理髮行的SLG手遊。公司致力於將三謀打造成常青遊戲，包括與 B 站遊戲社區聯動協同，不斷優化遊戲體驗，快速迭代賽季。根據七麥數據，遊戲發佈以來表現良好，一直位於iPhone遊戲-策略（暢銷）榜單前十。我們預期這款遊戲將爲公司的遊戲業務帶來新的流水增量，同時SLG作爲一款長線運營遊戲，有望驅動公司遊戲業務持續增長。
Continued cost cuts helped improve gross margin and narrow losses

Growth driver: newly released strategy game to help boost long-term revenue
In Q2E, revenue growth was driven largely by Three Kingdoms: Conquering the World, the company’s first mobile simulation game (SLG). Bilibili is committed to building the game into an evergreen title, through linkages and collaboration with the game community from the Bilibili website, and by optimizing the user experience while rapidly pushing out seasonal iterations. According to Qimai.cn, Conquering the World has performed well since its release and has been on the top 10 iPhone strategy games list. We expect the game to continue bringing in incremental revenue for Bilibili’s game business. In general, we believe SLG offerings, which tend to have a longer life-cycle, will continue to help drive growth.
