· Net loss from continuing operations attributable to controlling interest of JOYY^2^<br>was RMB791.9 million (US$121.4 million), compared to RMB816.6 million in the corresponding period of 2019, primarily due to the decrease<br>in the operation loss of Bigo Inc (“BIGO”).

^1^Starting from the second quarter of 2020, the Company deconsolidated HUYA Inc.

On November 16, 2020, the Company entered into definitive agreements with Baidu, Inc. (Nasdaq: BIDU) (“Baidu”). Pursuant to the agreements, Baidu would acquire JOYY’s domestic video-based entertainment live streaming business (“YY Live”), which includes YY mobile app, YY.com website and PC YY, among others, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately US$3.6 billion in cash, subject to certain adjustments. Subsequently, the sale was substantially completed on February 8, 2021, with certain customary matters remaining to be completed in the near future. As a result, the historical financial results of YY Live are reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations accordingly. The financial information and non-GAAP financial information disclosed in this press release is presented on a continuing operations basis, unless otherwise specifically stated.

^2^Net income from continuing operations attributable to controlling interest of JOYY, is net income from continuing operations less net (loss) income from continuing operations attributable to the non-controlling interest shareholders and the mezzanine equity classified as non-controlling interest shareholders.

Fourth Quarter 2020 OperationalHighlights

· Globalaverage mobile MAUs^4^ decreased by 7.1% to 393.7 million<br>from 423.6 million in the corresponding period of 2019, primarily due to the impact of the Indian government’s measures to block<br>Chinese-owned apps in its local market, which included Bigo Live, Likee and Hago, partially offset by increases in MAUs outside India.

--- ---
· Average mobile MAUs of Bigo Live increased by 24.5% to 28.7 million from 23.1 million in the corresponding<br>period of 2019.
--- ---
· Average mobile MAUs of Hago decreased by 49.9% to 16.5 million from 33.0 million in the corresponding<br>period of 2019 primarily due to the impact of the Indian government’s measures to block Chinese-owned apps in its local market.
--- ---
· Total number of paying users of YY Live decreased by 1.1% to 4.25 million from 4.30 million in<br>the corresponding period of 2019, mainly due to the impacts of COVID-19 adversely affecting the sentiment of some users on the live streaming<br>platforms of YY Live.
--- ---

Mr. David Xueling Li, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of JOYY, commented, “In the fourth quarter, we remained focused on executing our dual-engine growth strategy. Through a combination of globalized market reach and localized operations management, we continued to expand our international footprint and enhance our monetization capabilities. As a result, several of our platforms achieved solid revenue growth in the quarter, with revenues from Bigo Live increased by 100.4%, Likee by 407.5%, and Hago by 69.4% year over year. In terms of geographic coverage, we achieved promising results in both developed markets and the Middle East. For the whole year of 2020, our overseas business segment, BIGO, generated larger revenue than YY Live. Such progress illustrates not only our ability to capture the overseas market potential, but also our solid execution of growth strategies over the past several years. Through optimization of our products’ social features and improvement of content production tools, we continued to improve user experience and user engagement levels in the quarter. In 2021, we will continue to focus on the development of our platform’s content and social community via localized operations, further reducing content production barriers, and empowering content creators in all aspects of their activities. Such efforts will contribute to the abundant flow of high-quality content, which ultimately ensures the long-term sustainable growth of our social entertainment ecosystem.”

^4^Refers to mobile average monthly active users. Average mobile MAU for any period is calculated by dividing (i) the sum of the Company’s mobile active users for each month of such period, by (ii) the number of months in such period.

Mr. Bing Jin, Chief Financial Officer of JOYY, further commented, “During the fourth quarter of 2020, we grew our total revenues by 77.5% year over year to RMB3,783.5 million (US$579.9 million), with revenues from Bigo grew by 87.9% year over year to RMB3,389.8 million (US$519.5 million), mostly driven by an uptick in its live streaming revenues. Due to its improved product monetization capabilities, BIGO has achieved a positive non-GAAP operating margin for the second consecutive quarter. Going forward, we will continue to invest in our business development initiatives to further expand our global market reach, cultivate our highly engaged user community, and grow our high-quality content offerings. We will also actively explore flexible ways to return value to our shareholders and maximize shareholder value.”

| --- | | ● | Independent Review Conclusion | | --- | --- |

As noted in the Company’s February 8, 2021 Form 6-K, the Company’s audit committee previously commenced an independent review of allegations raised in a November 18, 2020 short seller report targeting JOYY. With the assistance of independent counsel, working with a team of experienced forensic auditors and data analytics experts, the audit committee previously concluded that the allegations raised and conclusions reached in the report about the YY Live business were not substantiated. The audit committee has now also concluded its work as to the handful of claims in the report unrelated to the YY Live business (concerning BIGO) and likewise found the short seller allegations unsubstantiated. The audit committee’s review has thus concluded, with no adverse findings.

Share Repurchase Program

On May 2020, the Company announced that its board of directors has authorized to extend its existing share repurchase program, as previously approved by the board of directors in August 2019, for another 12-month period upon its original expiry date under which the Company may repurchase up to US$300 million of its shares between August 2019 and August 2021. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had repurchased approximately US$139.5 million of its shares.

Use of Non-GAAP FinancialMeasures

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial information is prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). JOYY uses non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income from continuing operations attributable to controlling interest of JOYY, non-GAAP net margin attributable to controlling interest of JOYY, non-GAAP net income from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders of JOYY, and basic and diluted non-GAAP net income per ADS, which are non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP operating income is operating income excluding share-based compensation expenses, impairment of goodwill and investments, amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions, and gain on disposal of subsidiaries and business. Non-GAAP operating margin is non-GAAP operating income as a percentage of net revenues. Non-GAAP net income from continuing operations is net income from continuing operations excluding share-based compensation expenses, impairment of goodwill and investments, amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions, gain on disposal of subsidiaries and business, (loss) gain on disposal and deemed disposal of investments, gain (loss) on fair value change of investments, reconciling items on the share of equity method investments, fair value change on derivatives, interest expenses related to the convertible bonds’ amortization to face value, and income tax effects of above non-GAAP reconciling items. Non-GAAP net income from continuing operations attributable to controlling interest of JOYY is net income from continuing operations attributable to controlling interest of JOYY excluding share-based compensation expenses, impairment of goodwill and investments, amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions, (loss) gain on disposal and deemed disposal of subsidiaries and business, gain on disposal of investments, gain (loss) on fair value change of investments, reconciling items on the share of equity method investments, fair value change on derivatives, interest expenses related to the convertible bonds’ amortization to face value, income tax effects of above non-GAAP reconciling items and adjustments for non-GAAP reconciling items for the net (loss) income from continuing operations attributable to non-controlling interest shareholders. Non-GAAP net margin is non-GAAP net income from continuing operations attributable to controlling interest of JOYY as a percentage of net revenues. Non-GAAP net income from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders of JOYY is net income from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders of JOYY excluding share-based compensation expenses, impairment of goodwill and investments, amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions, (loss) gain on disposal and deemed disposal of subsidiaries and business, gain on disposal of investments, gain (loss) on fair value change of investments, reconciling items on the share of equity method investments, fair value change on derivatives, interest expenses related to the convertible bonds’ amortization to face value, accretion, cumulative dividend and deemed dividend to subsidiaries’ preferred shareholders and income tax effects of above non-GAAP reconciling items and adjustments for non-GAAP reconciling items for the net (loss) income from continuing operations attributable to non-controlling interest shareholders. After the non-GAAP reconciliation, non-GAAP net income from continuing operations attributable to controlling interests of JOYY is equal to the non-GAAP net income from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders of JOYY Basic and diluted non-GAAP net income from continuing operations per ADS is non-GAAP net income from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders of JOYY divided by weighted average number of ADS used in the calculation of basic and diluted net income per ADS. The Company believes that separate analysis and exclusion of the non-cash impact of above reconciling items adds clarity to the constituent parts of its performance. The Company reviews these non-GAAP financial measures together with GAAP financial measures to obtain a better understanding of its operating performance. It uses the non-GAAP financial measure for planning, forecasting and measuring results against the forecast. The Company believes that non-GAAP financial measure is useful supplemental information for investors and analysts to assess its operating performance without the non-cash effect of (i) share-based compensation expenses and amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions, fair value change on derivatives, interest expenses related to the convertible bonds’ amortization to face value, which have been and will continue to be significant recurring expenses in its business, (ii) impairment of goodwill and investments, gain on disposal of subsidiaries and business, (loss) gain on disposal and deemed disposal of investments, gain (loss) on fair value change of investments, reconciling items on the share of equity method investments, and accretion, cumulative dividend and deemed dividend to subsidiaries’ preferred shareholders, which may not be recurring in its business, and (iii) income tax expenses and non-GAAP adjustments for net (loss) income from continuing operations attributable to non-controlling interest shareholders, which are affected by above non-GAAP reconciling items. However, the use of non-GAAP financial measures has material limitations as an analytical tool. One of the limitations of using non-GAAP financial measures is that they do not include all items that impact the Company’s net income for the period. In addition, because non-GAAP financial measures are not measured in the same manner by all companies, they may not be comparable to other similar titled measures used by other companies. In light of the foregoing limitations, you should not consider non-GAAP financial measure in isolation from or as an alternative to the financial measure prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
