SeaMoney’s loan book grew by over 70% year-on-year this quarter, while maintaining a stable NPL ratio. And for Garena, we now expect Free Fire’s full year bookings to grow over 30% year-on-year.”
On profitability, Mr. Li said, “I am very proud that we also improved our profitability while getting back to high growth. This quarter, Shopee achieved positive adjusted EBITDA, in both Asia and Brazil. As we continue to focus on delivering growth, we expect Shopee to remain profitable going forward.”

| · | E-commerce and other services: GAAP revenue increased by 41.2%<br>to US$3.4 billion in the third quarter of 2024 from US$2.4 billion in the third quarter of 2023, primarily driven by the GMV growth of<br>our e-commerce business and the growth of our credit business. |

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we use the following non-GAAP financial measures to help evaluate our operating performance:
| · | “Adjusted EBITDA” for our digital<br>entertainment segment represents operating income (loss) plus (a) depreciation and amortization expenses, and (b) the net effect<br>of changes in deferred revenue and its related cost for our digital entertainment segment. We believe that the segment adjusted EBITDA<br>helps to identify underlying trends in our operating results, enhancing their understanding of the past performance and future prospects. |
|---|---|
| · | “Adjusted EBITDA” for our e-commerce<br>segment, digital financial services segment and other services segment represents operating income (loss) plus depreciation and amortization<br>expenses. We believe that the segment adjusted EBITDA helps to identify underlying trends in our operating results, enhancing their understanding<br>of the past performance and future prospects. |
| --- | --- |
| · | “Total adjusted EBITDA” represents<br>the sum of adjusted EBITDA of all our segments combined, plus unallocated expenses. We believe that the total adjusted EBITDA helps to<br>identify underlying trends in our operating results, enhancing their understanding of the past performance and future prospects. |
| --- | --- |
These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. None of the above financial measures should be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to revenue, net loss/income, or any other measure of performance or as an indicator of our operating performance. 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 Sea’s data. We compensate for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to their nearest U.S. GAAP financial measures, all of which should be considered when evaluating our performance. We encourage you to review our financial information in its entirety and not rely on any single financial measure.

^(1)^A combination of multiple business activities that do not meet the quantitative thresholds to qualify as reportable segments are grouped together as “Other Services”.
^(2)^ Unallocated expenses are mainly related to share-based compensation and general and corporate administrative costs such as professional fees and other miscellaneous items that are not allocated to segments. These expenses are excluded from segment results as they are not reviewed by the CODM as part of segment performance.
