BEIJING, Aug. 18, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Phoenix New Media Limited (NYSE: FENG) ("Phoenix New Media", "ifeng" or the "Company"), a leading new media company in China, today announced its unaudited financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020.
Mr. Shuang Liu, CEO of Phoenix New Media, commented, "During the second quarter of 2020, we remained undeterred by the pandemic and resulting macroeconomic uncertainty to conclude the period with encouraging results. For our flagship news app, iFeng, we refined our technology to optimize the platform's user experience, upgraded our recommendation algorithms to enhance its content delivery efficiency, and introduced new types of short-form content while focusing on our content operations to expand its offerings. We also maintained our focus on expanding our library of proprietary IP content and organizing high-profile online events in the period, both of which helped to enrich our brand equity, boost our advertiser value proposition, and diversify our revenue streams. On the new initiatives front, we carefully analyzed a number of business opportunities and boldly stepped out to launch projects in the fields of in-app ads solutions, video content and e-commerce. All of these new initiatives showed promising signs of growth in the quarter, and we remain optimistic about their future growth potential. Going forward, we plan to leverage our veteran media talent, abundant working capital, and efficient distribution networks to further bolster our leadership in China's new media industry and drive sustainable growth over the long term."
Mr. Edward Lu, CFO of Phoenix New Media, further stated, "Despite the myriad of challenges we faced as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak and its impact on China's advertising industry, our ability to effectively implement a number of cost control measures enabled us to significantly enhance our operating efficiency. As a result, we recorded income from operations of RMB25.6 million in the second quarter of 2020. While the current macroeconomic uncertainty and industry headwinds make forecasting difficult, we are confident that our progress to date has helped to lay the foundation for our sustainable growth going forward. We plan to remain prudent in our investment decisions while allocating our resources to those initiatives capable of delivering attractive ROI and lasting shareholder returns."
Second Quarter 2020 Financial Results
DISPOSAL OF EQUITY INTEREST IN TADU
On May 18, 2020, the Company sold all of its investment in Beijing Yitian Xindong Network Technology Co., Ltd. ("Yitian Xindong" or "Tadu"), as well as its rights to contingent returnable consideration under certain price adjustment mechanisms in connection with its original investment, with a total consideration of RMB313.6 million and recognized a disposal loss of RMB14.7 million in the second quarter of 2020. Tadu owns and operates the Tadu Apps that provide digital reading services. Tadu was a subsidiary and a separate reporting unit of the Company, and the disposal of Tadu represents the Company's strategic shift in operation of online literature business that had a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results. Therefore, the disposal of Tadu was qualified for reporting as a "discontinued operation" in the Company's financial statements. Accordingly, Tadu's results of operations have been excluded from the Company's results from continuing operations in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income/(loss) and are presented in separate line items as discontinued operations for the second quarter of 2020 and prior periods. Additionally, the related assets and liabilities associated with the discontinued operations in the prior year consolidated balance sheets were classified as assets/liabilities held for sale to provide the comparable financial information. The financial information and non-GAAP financial information disclosed in this press release is presented on a continuing operations basis, unless otherwise specifically stated.
REVENUES
Total revenues in the second quarter of 2020 decreased by 9.7% to RMB312.3 million (US$44.2 million) from RMB345.9 million in the same period of 2019, which was primarily due to the negative impact of COVID-19 outbreak and intensified industry competitions. Total revenues in the second quarter of 2020 increased by 35.0% from RMB231.4 million in the first quarter of 2020.
Net advertising revenues in the second quarter of 2020 decreased by 7.5% to RMB286.3 million (US$40.5 million) from RMB309.5 million in the same period of 2019. The decrease was primarily attributable to the negative impact of COVID-19 outbreak and intensified industry competitions.
Paid services revenues[1] in the second quarter of 2020 decreased by 28.6% to RMB26.0 million (US$3.7 million) from RMB36.4 million in the same period of 2019. Revenues from paid contents in the second quarter of 2020 decreased by 29.0% to RMB14.2 million (US$2.0 million) from RMB20.0 million in the same period of 2019, mainly due to the market condition and the tightening of rules and regulations on digital reading. Revenues from games in the second quarter of 2020 decreased by 96.8% to RMB0.1 million (US$0.01 million) from RMB2.6 million in the same period of 2019 as the Company closed some game related business in December 2019. Revenues from MVAS in the second quarter of 2020 decreased by 58.1% to RMB2.8 million (US$0.4 million) from RMB6.7 million in the same period of 2019 mainly resulting from the decline in users' demand for services provided through telecom operators in China. Revenues from others in the second quarter of 2020 increased by 25.5% to RMB8.9 million (US$1.3 million) from RMB7.1 million in the same period of 2019, which was mainly caused by the increase in revenues from online real estate related services.
COST OF REVENUES
Cost of revenues in the second quarter of 2020 decreased by 24.7% to RMB124.7 million (US$17.7 million) from RMB165.6 million in the same period of 2019. The decrease in cost of revenues was mainly due to the following:
The decrease was partially offset by the following:
GROSS PROFIT
Gross profit in the second quarter of 2020 increased by 4.1% to RMB187.6 million (US$26.5 million) from RMB180.3 million in the same period of 2019. Gross margin in the second quarter of 2020 increased to 60.1% from 52.1% in the same period of 2019, primarily attributable to the Company's strict cost control measures taken to enhance its operating efficiency in 2020, as explained above.
To supplement the financial measures presented in accordance with the United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), the Company has presented certain non-GAAP financial measures in this press release, which excluded the impact of certain reconciling items as stated in the "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section below. The related reconciliations to GAAP financial measures are presented in the accompanying "Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Results of Operation Measures to the Nearest Comparable GAAP Measures."
Non-GAAP gross margin in the second quarter of 2020, which excluded share-based compensation, increased to 60.3% from 52.6% in the same period of 2019.
OPERATING EXPENSES AND INCOME OR LOSS FROM OPERATIONS
Total operating expenses in the second quarter of 2020 decreased by 36.7% to RMB162.0 million (US$22.9 million) from RMB255.7 million in the same period of 2019, primarily attributable to the decrease in the Company's traffic acquisition expenses and the personnel-related expenses caused by the strict cost control measures taken to enhance its operating efficiency in 2020. Share-based compensation included in operating expenses in the second quarter of 2020 was RMB1.4 million (US$0.2 million), compared to RMB0.9 million in the same period of 2019, which was mainly caused by those options granted by the Company in July 2019.
Income from operations in the second quarter of 2020 was RMB25.6 million (US$3.6 million), compared to loss from operations of RMB75.5 million in the same period of 2019. Operating margin in the second quarter of 2020 was positive 8.2%, compared to negative 21.8% in the same period of 2019.
Non-GAAP income from operations in the second quarter of 2020, which excluded share-based compensation, was RMB27.8 million (US$3.9 million), compared to non-GAAP loss from operations of RMB73.1 million in the same period of 2019. Non-GAAP operating margin in the second quarter of 2020, which excluded share-based compensation, was positive 8.9%, compared to negative 21.1% in the same period of 2019.
OTHER INCOME OR LOSS
Other income or loss reflects interest income, interest expense, foreign currency exchange gain or loss, income or loss from equity method investments, net of impairments, changes in fair value of forward contract in relation to future disposal of investments in Particle and changes in fair value of loan related to co-sale of Particle shares, and others, net[2]. Total net other loss in the second quarter of 2020 was RMB5.1 million (US$0.7 million), compared to total net other income of RMB10.6 million in the same period of 2019. The decrease in total net other income or loss was mainly due to the following:
NET INCOME OR LOSS FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS ATTRIBUTABLE TO PHOENIX NEW MEDIA LIMITED
Net income from continuing operations attributable to Phoenix New Media Limited in the second quarter of 2020 was RMB2.8 million (US$0.4 million), compared to net loss from continuing operations attributable to Phoenix New Media Limited of RMB69.8 million in the same period of 2019. Net margin from continuing operations in the second quarter of 2020 was positive 0.9%, compared to negative 20.2% in the same period of 2019. Net income from continuing operations per diluted ADS[3] in the second quarter of 2020 was RMB0.04 (US$0.01), compared to net loss from continuing operations per diluted ADS of RMB0.96 in the same period of 2019.
Non-GAAP net income from continuing operations attributable to Phoenix New Media Limited, which excluded share-based compensation, income or loss from equity method investments, net of impairments, changes in fair value of loan related to co-sale of Particle shares and changes in fair value of forward contract in relation to future disposal of investments in Particle, was RMB23.7 million (US$3.4 million) in the second quarter of 2020, compared to non-GAAP net loss from continuing operations attributable to Phoenix New Media Limited of RMB67.9 million in the same period of 2019. Non-GAAP net margin from continuing operations in the second quarter of 2020 was positive 7.6%, compared to negative 19.6% in the same period of 2019. Non-GAAP net income from continuing operations per basic and diluted ADS in the second quarter of 2020 was RMB0.33 (US$0.05), compared to non-GAAP net loss from continuing operations per basic and diluted ADS of RMB0.93 in the same period of 2019.
In the second quarter of 2020, the Company's weighted average number of ADSs used in the computation of diluted net income from continuing operations per basic and diluted ADS was 72,790,541. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had a total of 582,324,325 ordinary shares outstanding, or the equivalent of 72,790,541 ADSs.
CERTAIN BALANCE SHEET ITEMS
As of June 30, 2020, the Company's cash and cash equivalents, term deposits and short term investments and restricted cash were RMB1.72 billion (US$243.9 million).
As previously announced by the Company, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement (the "SPA") with Run Liang Tai Management Limited, or Run Liang Tai, and its designated entities (the "Proposed Buyers") on March 22, 2019 and entered into a series of agreements with Run Liang Tai and the other shareholders of Particle to resolve certain issues in connection with the sale of preferred shares in Particle Inc. ("Particle") ( "Previous Agreements"). The Company completed delivery of the first batch of preferred shares of Particle to the Proposed Buyers in the fourth quarter of 2019 and the Proposed Buyers were required to pay the remaining purchase price for the second batch of Particle shares to the Company on or before August 10, 2020. In August 2020, the Company announced that it has signed a new share purchase agreement (the "New SPA") with Run Liang Tai, which replaced the Company's Previous Agreements with Run Liang Tai for the sale of the Company's remaining investment in Particle. Under the New SPA, the rights and obligations of both the Proposed Buyers and the Company with respect to the second batch of shares under the Previous Agreements were terminated, and instead, the Company agreed to sell a total of 140,248,775 shares of Particle, representing all of the Particle shares the Company currently holds, to the Proposed Buyers at a total purchase price of US$150 million and a per share price of US$1.0695 (the "Proposed Transaction"). The Proposed Buyers paid on August 10, 2020 approximately US$99.3 million (the "Remaining Payment") to the Company under the New SPA, which represents the difference between the total purchase price and the US$50 million deposit already paid by the Proposed Buyers under the Previous Agreements plus certain other accrued interests. The Company will be required to deliver the 140,248,775 shares of Particle to the Proposed Buyers after certain closing conditions are satisfied, including but not limited to approval by the shareholders of the Company's parent company, Phoenix Media Investment (Holdings) Limited ("Phoenix TV") (including any related necessary approval by The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited), as well as the Proposed Buyers' provision of written evidence satisfactory to the Company showing that they have fulfilled any additional purchase obligation. The Company may be required to return US$150 million to the Proposed Buyers and pay damages of US$50 million if it fails to obtain approval by the shareholders of Phoenix TV due to reasons within the Company's reasonable control. The Company may be able to retain some of the US$150 million if the Proposed Transaction fails to close due to other reasons. There is no assurance that the Proposed Transaction will ever be closed.
The fair value of the Company's remaining available-for-sale debt investments in Particle was decreased to RMB1,057.8 million (US$149.7 million) as of June 30, 2020 from RMB2,044.0 million as of March 31, 2020, reflecting the decrease in the price per share stated in the New SPA from that in the Previous Agreements. The decrease in fair value net of tax of RMB886.1 million (US$125.4 million) was recorded in the accumulated other comprehensive loss in shareholder's equity for the second quarter of 2020. The fair value of the investments in Particle as of June 30, 2020 were determined based on a valuation technique under the market approach, known as guideline company method, as well as using observable transactions of Particle's shares, as the selling price of the remaining preferred shares of Particle has been determined in the New SPA.
Business Outlook
For the third quarter of 2020, the Company expects its total revenues to be between RMB295.4 million and RMB315.4 million; net advertising revenues are expected to be between RMB275.0 million and RMB290.0 million; and paid services revenues are expected to be between RMB20.4 million and RMB25.4 million.
All of the above forecasts reflect the current and preliminary view of Company management, which are subject to change and substantial uncertainty, particularly in view of the potential impact of the COVID-19 outbreak, the effects of which are difficult to analyse and predict.
[1] Paid services revenues comprise of (i) revenues from paid contents excluding those from Tadu, which includes digital reading, audio books, paid videos, and other content-related sales activities, (ii) revenues from games, which includes web-based games and mobile games, (iii) revenues from MVAS, and (iv) revenues from others. |
[2] "Others, net" primarily consists of government subsidies and litigation loss provisions. |
[3] "ADS" means American Depositary Share of the Company. Each ADS represents eight Class A ordinary shares of the Company. |

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with the United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), Phoenix New Media Limited uses non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP income or loss from operations, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income or loss from continuing operations attributable to Phoenix New Media Limited, non-GAAP net margin from continuing operations and non-GAAP net income or loss from continuing operations per diluted ADS, each of which is a non-GAAP financial measure. Non-GAAP gross profit is gross profit excluding share-based compensation. Non-GAAP gross margin is non-GAAP gross profit divided by total revenues. Non-GAAP income or loss from operations is income or loss from operations excluding share-based compensation. Non-GAAP operating margin is non-GAAP income or loss from operations divided by total revenues. Non-GAAP net income or loss from continuing operations attributable to Phoenix New Media Limited is net income or loss from continuing operations attributable to Phoenix New Media Limited excluding share-based compensation, income or loss from equity method investments, net of impairments, changes in fair value of loan related to co-sale of Particle shares, and changes in fair value of forward contract in relation to future disposal of investments in Particle. Non-GAAP net margin from continuing operations is non-GAAP net income or loss from continuing operations attributable to Phoenix New Media Limited divided by total revenues. Non-GAAP net income or loss from continuing operations per diluted ADS is non-GAAP net income or loss from continuing operations attributable to Phoenix New Media Limited divided by weighted average number of diluted ADSs. The Company believes that separate analysis and exclusion of the aforementioned non-GAAP to GAAP reconciling items add clarity to the constituent parts of its performance. The Company reviews these non-GAAP financial measures together with the related GAAP financial measures to obtain a better understanding of its operating performance. It uses these non-GAAP financial measures for planning, forecasting and measuring results against the forecast. The Company believes that using these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate its business allows both management and investors to assess the Company's performance against its competitors and ultimately monitor its capacity to generate returns for investors. The Company also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful supplemental information for investors and analysts to assess its operating performance without the effect of items like share-based compensation, income or loss from equity method investments, net of impairments, which have been and will continue to be significant recurring items, and without the effect of changes in fair value of loan related to co-sale of Particle shares and changes in fair value of forward contract in relation to future disposal of investments in Particle which have been significant and one-time items. However, the use of these non-GAAP financial measures has material limitations as an analytical tool. One of the limitations of using these non-GAAP financial measures is that they do not include all items that impact the Company's gross profit, income or loss from operations and net income or loss from continuing operations attributable to Phoenix New Media Limited for the period. In addition, because these non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated in the same manner by all companies, they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. In light of the foregoing limitations, you should not consider these non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as an alternative to, the financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
