Fourth Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Total revenues reached RMB7.6 billion (US$1.1 billion), increasing 3% year over year.

Membership services revenue was RMB4.7 billion (US$687.8 million), increasing 15% year over year. The increase was primarily driven by a series of premium content we launched during the quarter, resulting in the number of total subscribing members to grow from 106.2 million as of September 30, 2022 to 119.7 million as of December 31, 2022.

Online advertising services revenue was RMB1.6 billion (US$225.2 million), decreasing 7% year over year, primarily due to the challenging macroeconomic environment.

Content distribution revenue was RMB634.7 million (US$92.0 million), decreasing 17% year over year, primarily due to the decrease in the number of barter transactions, partially offset by the increase of cash transactions.

Other revenues were RMB661.1 million (US$95.9 million), decreasing 21% year over year, primarily due to the adjustment in business operation model of certain business line and the soft performance of various business lines, partially offset by the revenue derived from the third-party cooperation.

Cost of revenues was RMB5.4 billion (US$783.3 million), decreasing 17% year over year, primarily due to lower content costs during the quarter. Content costs as a component of cost of revenues were RMB3.9 billion (US$569.3 million), decreasing 19% year over year. The decrease in content cost was driven by our improvement in content strategy and improvement in operating efficiency.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were RMB940.9 million (US$136.4 million), decreasing 14% year over year, primarily due to the decrease in personnel-related compensation expenses, the non-recurring employee severance costs in the fourth quarter of 2021 associated with the optimization of our organizational structure, as well as the decrease in share-based compensation.

Research and development expenses were RMB466.2 million (US$67.6 million), decreasing 39% year over year, primarily due to the decrease of personnel-related compensation expenses, the non-recurring employee severance costs in the fourth quarter of 2021 associated with the optimization of our organizational structure, as well as the decrease in share-based compensation.

Operating income was RMB783.6 million (US$113.6 million), compared to operating loss of RMB975.2 million in the same period in 2021. Operating income margin was 10%, compared to operating loss margin of 13% in the same period in 2021. Non-GAAP operating income was RMB978.7 million (US$141.9 million) and non-GAAP operating income margin was 13%, compared to non-GAAP operating loss of RMB515.5 million and non-GAAP operating loss margin of 7% in the same period in 2021.

Total other expense was RMB490.5 million (US$71.1 million), compared to total other expense of RMB753.4 million during the same period of 2021. The year over year decrease was a combined result of decreased loss derived from equity investees, and lower interest expenses mainly due to the adoption of ASU 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity and less principal amount of convertible bond, partially offset by the increase in the impairment provision from selected investee companies.

Income before income taxes was RMB293.1 million (US$42.5 million), compared to loss before income taxes of RMB1.7 billion in the same period in 2021.

Income tax benefit was RMB11.6 million (US$1.7 million), compared to income tax expense of RMB36.5 million in the same period in 2021.

Net income attributable to iQIYI was RMB304.3 million (US$44.1 million), compared to net loss attributable to iQIYI of RMB1.8 billion in the same period in 2021. Diluted net income attributable to iQIYI per ADS was RMB0.35 (US$0.05) for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to diluted net loss attributable to iQIYI per ADS of RMB2.24 in the same period of 2021. Non-GAAP net income attributable to iQIYI was RMB856.4 million (US$124.2 million), compared to non-GAAP net loss attributable to iQIYI of RMB1.0 billion in the same period in 2021.

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term investments and long-term restricted cash included in prepayments and other assets of RMB8.7 billion (US$1.3 billion).

Fiscal Year 2022 Financial Results

Total revenues were RMB29.0 billion (US$4.2 billion), representing a 5% decrease from 2021.

Membership services revenue was RMB17.7 billion (US$2.6 billion), representing a 6% increase from 2021, driven by the growth in ARM and the number of subscribing members, as we launched a variety of premium content and continued to refine operations to improve monetization capabilities.

Online advertising services revenue was RMB5.3 billion (US$773.0 million), representing a 25% decrease from 2021. The decrease was primarily due to the challenging macroeconomic environment.

Content distribution revenue was RMB2.5 billion (US$358.1 million), representing a 14% decrease from 2021, primarily due to the decrease in barter transactions.

Other revenues were RMB3.5 billion (US$505.3 million), representing a 11% decrease from 2021. The decrease was primarily due to the soft performance of various business lines and the adjustment in business operation model of certain business line, partially offset by the revenue derived from third-party cooperation.

Cost of revenues was RMB22.3 billion (US$3.2 billion), representing a 19% decrease from 2021, primarily due to the decrease of content cost. Content costs as a component of cost of revenues were RMB16.5 billion (US$2.4 billion), representing a 20% decrease from 2021. The decrease in content cost was driven by our improvement in content strategy and operating efficiency.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were RMB3.5 billion (US$502.6 million), representing a 27% decrease from 2021. The decrease was primarily due to disciplined marketing spending, and decline in personnel-related compensation expenses and share-based compensation.

Research and development expenses were RMB1.9 billion (US$275.4 million), representing a 32% decrease from 2021. The decrease was primarily due to the decline of personnel-related compensation expenses.

Total other expense was RMB1.3 billion (US$195.2 million), compared to total other expense of RMB1.5 billion in 2021. The year-over-year variance was a combined result of   decreased loss derived from equity investees, and lower interest expenses due to the adoption of ASU 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity and less principal amount of convertible bond, partially offset by the increase in the impairment provision from selected investee companies and the foreign exchange loss driven by the appreciation of U.S. dollar against Renminbi.

Loss before income taxes was RMB33.8 million (US$4.9 million), compared to loss before income taxes of RMB6.0 billion in 2021.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement iQIYI's consolidated financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, iQIYI uses the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP operating (loss)/income, non-GAAP operating (loss)/income margin, non-GAAP net (loss)/income attributable to iQIYI, non-GAAP diluted net (loss)/income attributable to iQIYI per ADS and free cash flow. The presentation of the non-GAAP financial measure is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

iQIYI believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its operating performance by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of its business operating results, such as operating performance excluding non-cash charges or non-operating in nature. The Company believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to the non-GAAP financial measures in assessing its performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management's internal comparisons to iQIYI's historical operating performance. The Company believes the non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making. A limitation of using these non-GAAP financial measures is that the non-GAAP measures exclude certain items that have been and will continue to be for the foreseeable future a significant component in the Company's results of operations. These non-GAAP financial measures presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures to the Company's data.

Non-GAAP operating (loss)/income represents operating (loss)/income excluding share-based compensation expenses, amortization and impairment of intangible assets resulting from business combinations and non-recurring employee severance costs.

Non-GAAP net (loss)/income attributable to iQIYI, Inc. represents net loss attributable to iQIYI, Inc. excluding share-based compensation expenses, amortization and impairment of intangible assets resulting from business combinations, non-recurring employee severance costs, disposal gain or loss, impairment of long-term investments, fair value change of long-term investments, adjusted for related income tax effects. iQIYI's share of equity method investments for these non-GAAP reconciling items, amortization and impairment of intangible assets not on the investees' books, accretion of their redeemable non-controlling interests, and the gain or loss associated with the issuance of shares by the investees at a price higher or lower than the carrying value per shares, adjusted for related income tax effects, are also excluded.

Non-GAAP diluted net (loss)/income per ADS represents diluted net (loss)/income per ADS calculated by dividing non-GAAP net (loss)/income attributable to iQIYI, Inc, which is adjusted for accretion for the redeemable non-controlling interests, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares expressed in ADS.

Free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures.
