Diversified content offerings with over 260 million licensed and co-created music and audio tracks.1) Renewed contracts with SM Entertainment and Kakao Entertainment, expanding partnerships to include premium sound effects, artist performances and merchandise. 2) Partnered with renowned artists such as Dao Lang and Tayu Lo[2] to offer timeless classics and privileged head-start benefits. 3) Collaborated with Angela Zhang to produce, release, and promote her album Conflicted, helping her reach a greater audience base and receive widespread acclaim. 4) Produced theme songs and original soundtracks for Tencent Video blockbusters including Blossom and Guardians of the Dafeng, and theatrical releases A Tapestry of a Legendary Land and TIGER WOLF RABBIT, quickly garnering praise from music lovers and movie viewers alike. Solid progress made in artist merchandise and live performances. For example, 1) Produced physical albums for Xiao Zhan and Lay Zhang, and provided options to purchase Esther Yu's merchandise along with her digital albums, significantly boosting album sales, 2) Partnered with Mayday to host an online New Year's Eve concert and promoted the event across multiple short video platforms and social media channels. Reinforced core value proposition further drove subscriber and ARPPU growth, SVIP gathered more traction. Enhancements to algorithms and user interface drove personal music asset accumulation, measured by a 10% year-over-year increase in users' song collections. The improvements also boosted recommendation-driven streams. We saw traction in our in-car music consumption driven by 1) expanded partnerships with mapping services including Amap and Baidu Maps, as well as deeper collaborations with electric vehicle manufacturers like BYD and XPENG, 2) optimized user experience through improved audio quality and karaoke features. SVIP recorded strong sequential growth in memberships, along with improved ARPPU and engagement. These results benefited from: 1) elevated audio quality and effects, such as our highly acclaimed AI-powered audio effect and voice extraction, 2) expanded digital album library, and 3) introduction of diverse privileges for online concerts, such as high-definition modes for selective shows. Committed to innovation, we launched new features to bring novel experience to users. Integrated DeepSeek LLM into song creation, which invigorated passion for music creation among our users. It also garnered an increasingly personalized music experience through its integration with AI assistants, comment sections, and recommendation pages. Launched innovative virtual fan-artist communities, boosting user engagement and ecosystem vibrancy. Notable examples included the virtual communities of JC-T and Teens in Times. Fostering stronger connections between brands and users, we designed and advertised interactive incentivized tasks, which became highly popular among our users. This led to robust year-over-year growth in advertising revenue. Fourth Quarter 2024 Financial Review Total revenues increased by RMB565 million, or 8.2%, to RMB7.46 billion (US$1.02 billion) from RMB6.89 billion in the same period of 2023. Revenues from online music services delivered a strong year-over-year increase of 16.1% to RMB5.83 billion (US$799 million) from RMB5.02 billion in the same period of 2023. The increase was driven by solid growth in music subscription revenues, supplemented by growth in revenues from advertising services. Revenues from music subscriptions were RMB4.03 billion (US$552 million), representing 18.0% year-over-year growth, compared with RMB3.42 billion in the same period of 2023. This rapid growth was driven by continuous expansion in the online music paying user base and improved ARPPU. The number of online music paying users increased by 13.4% year-over-year to 121.0 million. This growth was primarily due to high quality contents, attractive membership privileges, and optimized user operations. Monthly ARPPU increased to RMB11.1 in the fourth quarter of 2024 from RMB10.7 in the same period of 2023, which was driven by effective promotions and the expansion of SVIP membership program. The year-over-year increase in revenues from advertising was primarily due to our more diversified product portfolio and innovative ad formats, such as ad-supported mode. Revenues from social entertainment services and others decreased by 13.0% to RMB1.63 billion (US$223 million) from RMB1.87 billion in the same period of 2023. The decrease was mainly the result of adjustments to certain live-streaming interactive functions and more stringent compliance procedures implemented. Meanwhile, we continue to focus on the healthy growth in advertising and VIP memberships within social entertainment. Cost of revenues decreased by 1.1% year-over-year to RMB4.21 billion (US$576 million), mainly due to decreased revenues from social entertainment services that led to less revenue sharing fees. Meanwhile, advertising agency fees, costs related to offline performances and payment channel fees increased year-over-year. Gross margin increased to 43.6% from 38.3% in the same period of 2023, primarily due to strong growth in revenues from music subscriptions, including subscriptions to SVIP membership, and in revenues from advertising services, and the ramp-up of our own content. Total operating expenses decreased by 7.3% year-over-year to RMB1.17 billion (US$161 million). Operating expenses as a percentage of total revenues decreased to 15.7% from 18.4% in the same period of 2023. Selling and marketing expenses were RMB248 million (US$34 million), representing a 2.7% year-over-year decrease. General and administrative expenses were RMB926 million (US$127 million), representing an 8.4% year-over-year decrease. This decrease was primarily due to lower employee-related expenses. Total operating profit was RMB2.41 billion (US$330 million) in the fourth quarter of 2024, representing a 40.5% year-over-year increase. The finance cost for the fourth quarter of 2024 mainly reflected an unrealized foreign exchange gain, arising from treasury management activities, which was largely affected by the fluctuation of exchange rate between RMB and USD as of September 30 and December 31, 2024. The effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2024 was 16.9%, compared with 17.3% in the same period of 2023. We accrued withholding income tax of RMB110 million (US$15 million) in the fourth quarter of 2024. For the fourth quarter of 2024, net profit was RMB2.08 billion (US$284 million) and net profit attributable to equity holders of the Company was RMB1.96 billion (US$268 million). Non-IFRS net profit was RMB2.40 billion (US$329 million) and non-IFRS net profit attributable to equity holders of the Company was RMB2.28 billion (US$312 million). Please refer to the section in this press release titled "Non-IFRS Financial Measure" for details. Basic and diluted earnings per American Depositary Shares ("ADS") for the fourth quarter of 2024 were RMB1.27 (US$0.17) and RMB1.26 (US$0.17), respectively; non-IFRS basic and diluted earnings per ADS were RMB1.48 (US$0.20) and RMB1.47 (US$0.20), respectively. For the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company had weighted averages of 1.54 billion basic and 1.56 billion diluted ADSs outstanding, respectively. Each ADS represents two of the Company's Class A ordinary shares. As of December 31, 2024, the combined balance of the Company's cash, cash equivalents, term deposits and short-term investments amounted to RMB37.58 billion (US$5.15 billion), compared with RMB36.04 billion as of September 30, 2024. Full Year 2024 Financial Review Total revenues increased by RMB649 million, or 2.3%, to RMB28.40 billion (US$3.89 billion) from RMB27.75 billion in 2023. Revenues from online music services delivered a strong year-over-year increase of 25.5% to RMB21.74 billion (US$2.98 billion) from RMB17.33 billion in 2023. The increase was driven by strong growth in music subscription revenues, supplemented by growth in revenues from advertising services. Revenues from music subscriptions were RMB15.23 billion (US$2.09 billion), representing 25.9% year-over-year growth, compared with RMB12.10 billion in 2023. This rapid growth was driven by continuous expansion in the online music paying user base and improved ARPPU. Additionally, increased revenues from offline performances also contributed to the growth in revenues from online music services. Revenues from social entertainment services and others decreased by 36.1% to RMB6.66 billion (US$912 million) from RMB10.43 billion in 2023. The decrease was mainly the result of adjustments to certain live-streaming interactive functions and more stringent compliance procedures implemented. Meanwhile, we continue to focus on the healthy growth in advertising and VIP memberships within social entertainment.

Meanwhile, content costs of royalties, costs related to offline performances, advertising agency fees and payment channel fees increased year-over-year. Gross margin increased to 42.3% from 35.3% in 2023, primarily due to strong growth in revenues from music subscriptions, including subscriptions to SVIP membership, and in revenues from advertising services, and the ramp-up of our own content.
