    --  Operating profit increased to RMB132.3 million (US$19.9 million) from an
        operating loss of RMB33.8 million in the same period last year. Non-GAAP
        operating profit increased by 303.4% year over year to RMB153.7 million
        (US$23.1 million).

        shareholders increased by 122.5% year over year to RMB161.1 million
        (US$24.2 million) in the third quarter of 2017.
    --  The Company generated RMB197.8 million (US$29.7 million) of net cash
        from operating activities and RMB192.3 million (US$28.9 million) of free
        cash flow(1) in the third quarter of 2017.

Third Quarter 2017 Key Operating Metrics

    --  The average number of global mobile monthly active users ("Mobile MAUs")
        was 589.0 million in the third quarter of 2017. The number of Mobile
        MAUs from markets outside of China, or overseas markets, accounted for
        75.4% of the total number of Mobile MAUs in the third quarter of 2017.

Mr. Sheng Fu, Cheetah Mobile's Chief Executive Officer, stated, "Our overall business remained robust both financially and operationally in the third quarter of 2017. Notably, the performance of our mobile game business outperformed our expectations with both revenues and profits continuing to grow at a healthy pace in this quarter. In addition, we further enhanced our lead in artificial intelligence ("A.I.") technologies by acquiring approximately 30% equity interest in Beijing OrionStar, an A.I. technology company. A.I. technologies allow us to better serve our massive global user base by creating more product and service offerings and delivering more personalized experiences."

Mr. Vincent Jiang, Cheetah Mobile's Chief Financial Officer, commented, "I am pleased to announce that both operating profit and net profit continued to grow, with net profit achieving a record high in the third quarter of 2017. During the third quarter, we continued to optimize costs and expenses for our utility products and related services. Meanwhile, we gradually disposed of some of our non-strategic assets. These initiatives further improved our cash generation capability and allowed us to reallocate the Company's resources to execute our A.I. strategy, which we believe will help unlock the long-term value of our nearly 600 million global mobile MAUs."

Third Quarter 2017 Consolidated Financial Results

REVENUES

Total revenues increased by 5.9% year over year to RMB1,194.7 million (US$179.6 million) in the third quarter of 2017.

    --  Revenues from utility products and related services, which include
        mobile utility applications, internet browsers and PC security software,
        decreased by 14.6% year over year to RMB824.8 million (US$124.0 million)
        in the third quarter of 2017. The year-over-year decrease was primarily
        due to a decrease in PC revenues as internet traffic in China continued
        to migrate from PC to mobile devices. To a lesser extent, the
        year-over-year decrease was also due to a decline in revenues from
        mobile utility products and related services in the overseas markets, as
        certain ad formats have been discontinued by one of our overseas
        third-party advertising partners.
    --  Revenues from the mobile entertainment business, which includes Live.me,
        News Republic, and mobile games, increased by 123.9% year over year to
        RMB362.4 million (US$54.5 million). The year-over-year increase was
        primarily driven by a rapid growth in Live.me's broadcasting revenues
        and the Company's enriched mobile game portfolio as a result of the
        introduction of several new mobile games earlier this year.

By platform, revenues generated from the mobile business increased by 16.9% year over year to RMB1,050.3 million (US$157.9 million) in the third quarter of 2017, primarily driven by the rapid growth of the Company's Live.me business in the overseas markets and the increase in its mobile game revenues, particularly in the overseas markets.

By region, revenues generated from the overseas markets increased by 11.2% year over year to RMB800.5 million (US$120.3 million) in the third quarter of 2017.

COST OF REVENUES AND GROSS PROFIT

Cost of revenues decreased by 1.0% year over year to RMB399.7 million (US$60.1 million) in the third quarter of 2017. The year-over-year decrease was primarily driven by a decrease in bandwidth costs and internet data center costs as the Company continued to optimize its product offerings and improve its operating efficiency. Non-GAAP cost of revenues decreased by 1.0% year over year to RMB399.7 million (US$60.1 million) in the third quarter of 2017.

Gross profit increased by 9.7% year over year to RMB795.0 million (US$119.5 million) in the third quarter of 2017. Non-GAAP gross profit increased by 9.7% year over year to RMB795.0 million (US$119.5 million) in the third quarter of 2017.

OPERATING INCOME AND EXPENSES

Total operating expenses decreased by 12.6% year over year to RMB662.7 million (US$99.6 million) in the third quarter of 2017. Total non-GAAP operating expenses decreased by 6.6% year over year to RMB641.2 million (US$96.4 million) in the third quarter of 2017.

    --  Research and development (R&D) expenses decreased by 25.9% year over
        year to RMB174.6 million (US$26.3 million) in the third quarter of 2017,
        primarily due to lower share-based compensation expenses for the
        Company's utility products and services business and reduced R&D head
        count for the Company's News Republic business. Non-GAAP R&D expenses,
        which exclude share-based compensation expenses, decreased by 13.9% year
        over year to RMB171.8 million (US$25.8 million) in the third quarter of
        2017.
    --  Selling and marketing expenses increased by 4.5% year over year to
        RMB409.0 million (US$61.5 million) in the third quarter of 2017,
        primarily due to increased promotional activities for the Company's
        mobile game business. Non-GAAP selling and marketing expenses, which
        exclude share-based compensation expenses, increased by 6.6% year over
        year to RMB410.7 million (US$61.7 million) in the third quarter of 2017.
    --  General and administrative expenses decreased by 37.1% year over year to
        RMB88.7 million (US$13.3 million) in the third quarter of 2017. The
        year-over-year decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in
        allowance for doubtful accounts, lower administrative expenses, and
        lower share-based compensation expenses. Non-GAAP general and
        administrative expenses, which exclude share-based compensation
        expenses, decreased by 38.7% year over year to RMB68.4 million (US$10.3
        million) in the third quarter of 2017.

Operating profit increased to RMB132.3 million (US$19.9 million) in the third quarter of 2017 from an operating loss of RMB33.8 million in the same period last year. Non-GAAP operating profit increased by 303.4% year over year to RMB153.7 million (US$23.1 million) in the third quarter of 2017.

The Company has reported its operating profit along the following segments since the second quarter of 2017:

    --  Operating profit for utility products and related services increased by
        14.4% year over year to RMB260.5 million (US$39.2 million) in the third
        quarter of 2017, mainly due to the optimization of cost and expense
        structure of utility products and services.
    --  Operating loss for the mobile entertainment business was RMB105.0
        million (US$15.8 million) in the third quarter of 2017, mainly due to
        the Company's increased investments in its content-driven products. The
        Company's mobile entertainment business had operating losses of RMB189.6
        million in the same period last year. The reduced loss was mainly driven
        by year-over-year increases in revenues generated from the Company's
        Live.me and mobile game businesses.

Share-based compensation expenses decreased by 70.3% year over year to RMB21.4 million (US$3.2 million) in the third quarter of 2017. The decrease resulted from a combination of several factors. The Company employed an accelerated method to recognize share-based compensation expenses. As a significant number of share-based awards were granted by the Company around its IPO in 2014 and most of these awards approached the end of their vesting periods in 2017, there was a year-over-year decrease of the Company's share-based compensation expenses in the third quarter of 2017. In addition, fewer share-based awards were granted in 2017 than in previous years, and more unvested awarded shares were forfeited in 2017 to date.

IMPAIRMENT OF INVESTMENTS

Impairment of investments were RMB65.5 million (US$9.8 million) in the third quarter of 2017, primarily due to a one-time non-cash write-down of an investment asset, which the Company considered other-than-temporary, to its fair value. This write-down was the result of lower-than-expected performance and financial position of the investment asset.

OTHER INCOME, NET

Other income, net, was RMB82.6 million (US$12.4 million) in the third quarter of 2017, primarily consisting of gains from disposals of certain investment assets in the third quarter of 2017.

NET INCOME ATTRIBUTABLE TO CHEETAH MOBILE SHAREHOLDERS

Net income attributable to Cheetah Mobile shareholders increased to RMB139.7 million (US$21.0 million) in the third quarter of 2017 from RMB0.4 million in the same period last year. Non-GAAP net income attributable to Cheetah Mobile shareholders increased by 122.5% year over year to RMB161.1 million (US$24.2 million) in the third quarter of 2017.

NET INCOME PER ADS

Diluted income per ADS increased to RMB0.95 (US$0.14) in the third quarter of 2017 from RMB0.00 in the same period last year. Non-GAAP diluted income per ADS increased by 115.7% year over year to RMB1.10 (US$0.17) in the third quarter of 2017.

ADJUSTED EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP) increased by 133.4% year over year to RMB186.9 million (US$28.1 million) in the third quarter of 2017.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement Cheetah Mobile's consolidated financial information presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, Cheetah Mobile uses the following non-GAAP financial measures:

    --  Non-GAAP cost of revenues reflects cost of revenues excluding the
        portion of share-based compensation expenses allocated to cost of
        revenues.
    --  Non-GAAP gross profit reflects gross profit excluding the portion of
        share-based compensation expenses allocated to gross profit.
    --  Non-GAAP operating income and expenses reflect operating income and
        expenses excluding the portion of share-based compensation expenses
        allocated to operating expenses.
    --  Non-GAAP operating profit reflects operating profit excluding
        share-based compensation expenses.
    --  Non-GAAP net income attributable to Cheetah Mobile shareholders is net
        income attributable to Cheetah Mobile shareholders excluding share-based
        compensation expenses.
    --  Non-GAAP diluted earnings per ADS is non-GAAP net income attributable to
        Cheetah Mobile shareholders excluding net income attributable to
        redeemable noncontrolling interests, divided by weighted average number
        of diluted ADSs.
    --  Adjusted EBITDA is earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation,
        amortization, other non-operating income and share-based compensation
        expenses.
    --  Free cash flow is net cash generated by operating activities less
        capital expenditure.

The Company believes that separate analysis and exclusion of share-based compensation expenses and the use of Adjusted EBITDA add clarity to the constituent parts of its performance from the cash perspective. 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 measures for planning, forecasting and measuring results against the forecast. The Company believes that non-GAAP financial measures are useful supplemental information for investors and analysts to assess its operating performance without the effect of share-based compensation expenses, which have been and will continue to be significant recurring expenses in its business. 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 similarly 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. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the tables captioned "Cheetah Mobile Inc. Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results" and "Cheetah Mobile Inc. Reconciliation of Net Income Attributable to Cheetah Mobile Shareholders to Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP)" at the end of this release.
