SINGAPORE, Nov. 21, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Sea Limited (NYSE: SE) ("Sea" or the "Company") today announced its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2018.
"We once again achieved strong growth in the third quarter of 2018," said Forrest Li, Chairman and Group Chief Executive Officer of Sea. "Shopee posted its best ever quarterly gross merchandise value and number of orders as it extended its lead as the largest e-commerce platform in our region. Building on this momentum, our recent annual 'Shopee 11.11 Big Sale' also set a historical high record for Shopee, helping to cement its reputation as the go-to online destination for consumers in our region."
"In digital entertainment, our self-developed game, Free Fire, is now one of the world's most popular online games, recently achieving its record high peak daily active user count of over 27 million and surpassing 200 million registered users globally," Forrest continued. "We are also excited about our strong game pipeline, boosted by the new publishing arrangement with Tencent, our long-term investor and strategic partner. The strong momentum across our e-commerce and digital entertainment businesses is reflected in our revised full year outlook."

Strategic Business Updates
Digital Entertainment
Driven by the strong performance of our key game titles, Garena continued to deliver robust growth in the third quarter of 2018.
Our self-developed game, Free Fire, continues to grow quickly, recently surpassing 200 million registered users globally and achieving a peak daily active user count of over 27 million, compared to our previously disclosed peak of over 16 million daily active users. Our monetization programs for Free Fire are also generating results. Throughout the month of October, Free Fire was consistently the highest grossing game on the Google Play Store in Brazil, Argentina, and Mexico, according to App Annie. It is also building traction in our core markets in Southeast Asia, becoming the highest grossing game on the Google Play Store in Indonesia in late October, based on App Annie's rankings.
On November 19, we announced a binding letter of intent with Tencent for it to grant us a right of first refusal to publish its mobile and PC games in Indonesia, Taiwan, Thailand, the Philippines, Malaysia, and Singapore.
We believe our strategic partnership with Tencent will enhance our continual efforts to bring top quality content to our region.
E-commerce
Shopee continued to scale rapidly in the third quarter, driven by robust GMV and order growth across all our markets. Its marketplace revenue grew by 34.8% quarter-on-quarter as more sellers made use of Shopee's suite of advertising and value added services to reach its fast-growing consumer community.
During the quarter, Shopee also continued to benefit from improved economies of scale and greater marketing efficiencies, with sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of GMV falling further to 5.7%, compared to 6.2% in the second quarter of 2018.
This strong momentum was driven by robust user engagement on the platform. At the culmination of the Shopee 11.11 Big Sale, an annual shopping festival held from late October to mid-November, Shopee set its new record with over 11 million orders recorded on the platform over the 24 hours of November 11, 2018. This represented approximately 4.5 times the number of orders recorded on the same date last year.
Other Developments
The Company announced today that Terry Zhao has been appointed President of Garena. Terry has been with the Company since its inception in 2009 and has served in a number of senior roles in our digital entertainment business across several key markets, most recently running our games studio in Shanghai. He has been heavily involved in our push into self-developed games and mobile games and, in his new role, will focus on further extending our offering in these important strategic areas.
The Company also announced that Group Chief Strategy Officer, Alan Hellawell, will depart the Company effective November 23, 2018. Drawing on his prior experience as a seasoned equity analyst in the technology sector, Alan made important contributions to the Company's successful initial public offering and its transition through the initial stage as a publicly listed company during his tenure. "On behalf of Sea, I would like to thank Alan for his service to the Company, and wish him all the best in his future endeavors," said Forrest, Sea's Chairman and Group Chief Executive Officer.
Alan's responsibilities have been assumed by the Company's corporate development and strategy team under the oversight of its Group General Counsel, Yanjun Wang. In addition to the legal function, Yanjun also oversees the corporate development, investor relations, public policy, and public relations functions of the Company. Yanjun has been with the Company since early 2014 and, as a member of the Company's leadership team, worked closely with the board and Group Chief Executive Officer on all key strategic and corporate matters of the Company in the past few years.

General and Administrative Expenses
Our general and administrative expenses increased by 72.2% to US$57.3 million in the third quarter of 2018 from US$33.3 million in the third quarter of 2017. This increase was primarily due to the expansion of our staff force, the increase in office facilities and related expenses, as well as the increase in professional fees and other expenses.
Research and Development Expenses
Our research and development expenses increased by 125.7% to US$17.3 million in the third quarter of 2018 from US$7.7 million in the third quarter of 2017, primarily due to the increase in our research and development staff force as we expanded and enriched our product offerings.
Non-operating Income or Losses, Net
Non-operating income or losses consists of interest income, interest expense, investment gain (loss), fair value change for convertible debts and foreign exchange gain (loss). The amount was a net non-operating income of US$30.9 million and US$25.8 million in the third quarter of 2018 and 2017, respectively. This was primarily due to a fair value gain of US$36.0 million recognized in this quarter on the convertible debts issued before our initial public offering, while the net non-operating income in 2017 was primarily attributable to a gain on disposal and re-measurement of our investments.
Income Tax Expense
We had a net income tax expense of US$2.0 million in the third quarter of 2018, compared with a net income tax benefit of US$2.1 million in the third quarter of 2017, which was primarily due to corporate income tax and withholding tax recognized for our digital entertainment segment in the third quarter of 2018. The net income tax benefit in the third quarter of 2017 was primarily due to deferred tax assets recognized on deferred revenue arising from our digital entertainment segment.
Share of Results of Equity Investees
We had share of losses of equity investees of US$0.7 million in the third quarter of 2018, compared with US$0.1 million in the third quarter of 2017.
Net Loss
As a result of the foregoing, we had net losses of US$218.0 million and US$132.8 million in the third quarter of 2018 and 2017, respectively.
Adjusted Net Loss
Adjusted net loss, which is net loss adjusted to remove share-based compensation expenses and fair value change for convertible debts, was US$237.6 million and US$127.1 million in the third quarter of 2018 and 2017, respectively.
Updated Guidance
For the full year of 2018, we now expect total adjusted revenue to be between US$930 million and US$970 million, representing 68.0% to 75.2% growth from 2017. This compares to the previously disclosed guidance of between US$780 million and US$820 million, representing 40.9% to 48.1% growth. We expect adjusted revenue for digital entertainment for the full year of 2018 to be between US$600 million and US$620 million, representing year-on-year growth of 21.0% to 25.0%.
We are also revising our e-commerce GMV guidance for the full year of 2018. We now expect e-commerce GMV for the full year of 2018 to be between US$9.2 billion and US$9.7 billion, representing 123.7% to 135.9% growth from 2017. This compares to the previously disclosed guidance of between US$8.2 billion and US$8.7 billion, representing 99.4% to 111.5% growth.
