Business Review

In the second quarter of 2024,we continued to grow our revenues and profits amid a highly competitive landscape,making advancements across industry-leading AI technology,robust content and commercial ecosystems as well as efficient organization collaboration that set the stage for our platform to thrive in a dynamic market. Our total revenue increased by 11.6% year-over-year to RMB31.0 billion in the second quarter of 2024. In terms of profitability,our gross margin climbed to over 55% in the second quarter of 2024,and our adjusted net profit reached RMB4.7 billion,making our adjusted net profit margin 15.1%.

As an AI-driven technology company,we have constructed advanced infrastructure to support the trainings and inference of large models with trillions of parameters. Based on this,we developed industry-leading AI matrix including KwaiYii Large Language Models (快意大語言模型),large visual generation models and recommendation models. In the second quarter of 2024,we made considerable strides in large visual generation models. We launched full beta testing for our large video generation model Kling AI (可靈AI)and rolled out a membership program to global users,bringing further upgraded features. Our advanced text-to-image AI generation model Kolors (可圖)has been officially open-sourced to encourage a collaborative,robust ecosystem. Our AI matrix is now seamlessly embedded across various business scenarios,supporting content creation,content understanding and recommendations,and user interactions. This powerful combination significantly enhances our commercial competitiveness by providing merchants and marketing clients with more effective and efficient tools. In the first half of 2024,nearly 20,000 merchants utilized our AI matrix to optimize their operations on the Kuaishou platform,and marketing clients' daily spending with AIGC marketing materials peaked at RMB20 million in the second quarter of 2024.

User and content ecosystem

In the second quarter of 2024,the average DAUs and MAUs on the Kuaishou App reached 395 million and 692 million,representing year-over-year increases of 5.1% and 2.7%,respectively. The average daily time spent per DAU on the Kuaishou App was 122 minutes. We achieved accelerated growth in user traffic,with total user time spent on Kuaishou App increasing by 9.5% year-over-year.

We deepened our strategy of high-quality growth. By improving our traffic allocation mechanism and building scenarios for user demand insight,we successfully enhanced user experience in synergy with our revenue-generating businesses. By optimizing measures such as hot comments ranking,we fostered a vibrant community atmosphere and improved user long-term retention rate,achieving high-quality growth in DAUs. Additionally,we improved the ROI of user retention costs through refined operational strategies.

We are dedicated to cultivating a healthy and vibrant content creation ecosystem and supporting high quality content creators with algorithm optimization. We continued to bring users premium content that showcases the unique characteristics of our platform across differentiated operating strategies in vertical industries. For example,we focus on creating native sports content that the public enjoys in our sports vertical. Riding on the booming interest for sports content before the start of the Olympic Games Paris 2024,we launched Kuaishou Village Olympics (快手村奧會),which attracted a live crowd of over 135,000 spectators and captivated more than 520 million viewers online,amassing more than 6.4 billion impressions. As a pioneer and leader in the short play industry,we leveraged our cutting-edge Kling AI to launch Legendary Mirrors of Mountains and Seas (山海奇鏡),the first-ever original AIGC fantasy short play in China. Within two weeks after its release,it had attracted over 50 million views,demonstrating the significant appeal of our advanced large models' capabilities to craft content with depth.

For our search business,in the second quarter of 2024,we continued to optimize our "search after watching" feature and introduced single column format in displaying search results. This enhanced user experience and unlocked the commercialization potentials. Our search user penetration rate was further improved with MAUs for Kuaishou search reached nearly 500 million in the second quarter of 2024 while daily searches increased by over 20% year-over-year.

Online marketing services

In the second quarter of 2024,revenue from online marketing services increased by 22.1% year-over-year to RMB17.5 billion,despite the overall softer consumer sentiment. Our revenue growth was fueled by enhanced smart marketing solutions and deeper sales funnel conversion paths for our marketing clients,which led to higher bids. Additionally,our advanced algorithms greatly supported the exploration of demographic interests and improvements in matching efficiency,significantly boosting the number of effective users with online marketing potentials.

Revenue from our external marketing services grew notably in the second quarter of 2024,with the year-over-year growth rate surpassing that of the first quarter of 2024,particularly in the media information,e-commerce platforms,and local services industries. For paid short plays under the media information industry,we continued to improve user experience by refining native sales funnels and increase the scale of paying users through smart subsidies. This drove rapid growth in paid short plays marketing placement,with average daily marketing spending on paid short plays increasing by more than twofold year-over-year. Regarding smart placement,the penetration rate of our external marketing product,Universal Auto X (UAX),continued to increase across multiple industries,with total marketing spending through UAX accounting for over 30% of overall external marketing spending.

Revenue growth from our enclosed loop marketing services remained robust in the second quarter of 2024. The growth was driven by the ongoing optimization of our smart placement product strategies and capabilities,which led to total marketing spending by merchants using our omni-platform marketing solution or smart hosting products accounting for 40% of overall enclosed-loop marketing spending. For small- and medium-sized merchants,we leveraged major promotional events to boost marketing placement. We also offered simplified,automated marketing solutions through composite products that enhanced the stability and efficiency of their automated marketing placements,driving a 60% year-over-year surge in these merchants' spending in the second quarter of 2024. In our brand marketing efforts,we launched a unique marketing initiative in collaboration with fashion media. By blending Eastern esthetics with trendy culture,intangible cultural heritage,and avant-garde art,the initiative attracted numerous leading brands across cosmetics,food and beverage,apparel and 3C products. Furthermore,major brands,including Tmall,renewed their sponsorships for our Kuaishou Astral Short Plays (快手星芒短劇),resulting in an over 20-fold revenue growth year-over-year from marketing sponsorship of Kuaishou Astral Short Plays in the second quarter of 2024.

E-commerce

Despite the consumer demand challenges faced by domestic e-commerce businesses,rapidly evolving consumption trend and e-commerce infrastructure are driving e-commerce's growth. Amid the new trends,lower-tier markets are emerging as mainstream markets with the largest population and the greatest potential for growth. We aim to help consumers discover affordable quality products that fit their needs through trustworthy streamers and content on Kuaishou. We are committed to fostering a sustainable,healthy KOL ecosystem while propelling multi-faceted,omni-domain operations for brands and merchants in self-operated live streaming,pan shelf-based e-commerce and short video e-commerce.

In the second quarter of 2024,our e-commerce GMV grew by 15% year-over-year to RMB305.3 billion. On the demand side,the number of e-commerce monthly active paying users increased by 14.1% year-over-year to 131 million in the second quarter of 2024,and our MAU penetration rate reached a new high of 18.9%. We are committed to our user-centric strategy,coupled with a focused approach to tapping specific industries,which empowers us to swiftly capture and respond to fast-evolving consumer preferences. Specifically,we remain focused on iterating initiatives for acquiring new users as well as growing active users,expanding our user reach through product and subsidy strategies that encourage repeat purchases.

On the supply side,the number of average monthly active merchants in the second quarter of 2024 grew by more than 50% year-over-year,primarily due to our concerted efforts in new merchants' cold-starts,growth and sustained operations,in addition to empowering existing merchants to tap into omni-domain operations. Designed especially for small and medium-sized merchants,our Set Sail Initiative (啟航計劃) provides new merchants with up to 100 billion traffic resources throughout the year,coupled with our Uplift Initiative (扶搖計劃) that helps new merchants rapidly scale their businesses after a cold start. Additionally,we enhanced merchants' overall omni-domain operating capabilities by building follower-base growth initiatives,as well as by integrating short video and live-streaming content. Regarding KOL strategies,we recommended high-quality merchandise to KOLs internally while helping medium-tier KOLs select merchandise via external facilitator,particularly with targeted recommendations based on the follower profiles of medium-tier KOLs. At the same time,we leveraged AI technology,marketing tools and follower operation tools to enrich marketing strategies for KOL. We lowered the barriers for KOLs to conduct e-commerce live streaming,encouraged live-streaming user interactions,and comprehensively enhanced our platform's capabilities in matching KOLs with products. For brand merchants,we prioritized our Trade-in,Trade-up (以舊換新) program,membership operations,and Big Brand,Big Subsidy (大牌大補) channel to attract a wider variety of brand merchandise offerings on our platform. During the 618 Shopping Festival,GMV from consumer electronics brands and household items grew by over 83% year-over-year,a testament to increased mindshare for affordable branded products.

In terms of e-commerce scenarios,pan shelf-based e-commerce GMV in the second quarter of 2024 continued to outpace the overall platform,accounting for over 25% of total GMV. The number of pan shelf-based e-commerce orders during the 618 Shopping Festival grew by 65% year-over-year,a key growth driver of our e-commerce business. In terms of our shopping mall,the number of average daily active merchants and average daily paying users grew by over 50% and 70%,respectively on a year-over-year basis. On the user front,both the average number of product cards viewed per user and the volume of product searches in our shopping mall surged year-over-year,highlighting consumers' growing mindshare for browsing and searching for products in the Kuaishou shopping mall. The introduction of our large models has also improved our ability to identify user purchasing intentions,driving a more than 80% year-over-year increase in search-induced e-commerce GMV in the second quarter of 2024. In addition,we launched sales hosting services for Kuaishou shopping mall that integrates our platform's omni-domain traffic,aiming to lower merchants' operational barriers,providing merchants with predictable sales channels. Additionally,our short video e-commerce GMV continued its rapid growth in the second quarter of 2024,with a year-over-year increase of nearly 70%. Merchants leverage short videos to attract potential users before live streaming and extend the sales cycle of blockbuster products afterwards. This approach has further strengthened the integration between short videos and live streaming scenarios.

Live streaming

In the second quarter of 2024,revenue from our live-streaming business decreased by 6.7% year-over-year to RMB9.3 billion. We continued to iterate our refined operating approach to bolster a healthy and positive live-streaming ecosystem. On the supply side,we established regional teams dedicated to attracting high-quality talent agencies through targeted industry promotions and impactful offline presentations. This strategy led to a nearly 50% increase in the number of partnering talent agencies and a 60% growth in the number of talent agency-managed streamers by the end of the second quarter of 2024,both on a year-over-year basis. Meanwhile,we continued to promote emerging streaming features,such as multi-host live streaming and the "Grand Stage",which attracted significantly more talent agencies and streamers,driving core growth in our live streaming business.

We are dedicated to attracting mid-tier streamers,enhancing interactive live-streaming features,and encouraging streamers to produce high-quality content,all of which provide more reasons for users to engage with our platform. Additionally,as the official short video partner for CrossFire (穿越火線)and King Pro League (王者榮耀職業聯賽),we effectively helped generate greater attention to broader audience by leveraging our "short video + live streaming + community" ecosystem.

As an example of "live streaming+" services empowering traditional industries,the daily average number of resume submissions on Kwai Hire (快聘) increased by more than 130%,and matching rate grew by over 150%,daily lead generation on our Ideal Housing (理想家) expanded by nine-fold compared to the same period last year.

Overseas

We continued to deepen our local operations in key overseas markets during the second quarter of 2024 through advanced content offering,operation capabilities,and marketing initiatives. Under our ROI-driven growth strategies,we have been refining operations in traditional marketing channels and exploring new growth avenues. These initiatives drove steady growth in average DAUs in key overseas markets such as Brazil and Indonesia. Notably,DAUs in Brazil rose by 15.4% year-over-year and also improved quarter-over-quarter. Regarding content operations overseas,we continued to engage high-quality content creators,enriching our content offering and enhancing the vibrancy of our community-based ecosystem. Meanwhile,our optimized algorithm,enhanced traffic mechanisms and diverse monetization initiatives have gradually strengthened the positive flywheel effect of content production,consumption and monetization for creators. Average daily time spent per DAU in key overseas markets increased by 5% year-over-year to nearly 80 minutes in the second quarter of 2024.

In terms of monetization capabilities,our overseas revenues increased by 141.4% year-over-year to RMB1.1 billion in the second quarter of 2024. Our overseas online marketing team actively expanded the client base across multiple industries by optimizing product capabilities and upgrading clients' experiences. As a result,online marketing revenue from our overseas business increased by over 200% year-over-year and continued to grow quarter-over-quarter. With improvements in our overseas monetization efficiency,we gained further operating leverage,leading to a reduction in the operating loss from our overseas business by 64.5% year-over-year to RMB277 million in the second quarter of 2024.

Business Outlook

The strong technological foundation we built with our AI matrix paves the way for innovations and our next stage of growth across our thriving content and commercial ecosystem.
