"2019 was a remarkable year for Huya as we further enriched and diversified our quality content, improved our innovative products and services, and strengthened our technology capabilities. Together, these actions drove substantial growth in both our user numbers and revenues," said Mr. Rongjie Dong, Chief Executive Officer of Huya. "We ended the year with a strong fourth quarter, as average MAUs of Huya Live were up 28.8% year-over-year, reaching 150.2 million. Total net revenues for the fourth quarter also grew 64.0% year-over-year, demonstrating our strengthened monetization capabilities. Heading into 2020, we remain committed to solidifying our comprehensive and self-reinforcing ecosystem and strengthening our leading position."

Mr. Dong added, "As a leading online destination for China's enormous gaming population, we believe in the resilience of Huya's business under the COVID-19 outbreak. Given the underlying uncertainties brought by the epidemic, we will continue to closely monitor the evolving situation and assess its impact accordingly. Nevertheless, we remain confident in our overall market positioning with strong execution capabilities to further increase the value we bring to our growing user and content creator community."

Ms. Catherine Liu, Chief Financial Officer of Huya, commented, "A better-than-expected performance of our live streaming business facilitated another strong quarter, exceeding the top end of our revenue guidance. Our robust revenue growth was achieved with margin improvement as we continue to improve our operation efficiencies. Our non-GAAP gross margin expanded to 19.5% in the fourth quarter of 2019 from 18.3% in the third quarter of 2019 and 16.1% in the fourth quarter of 2018; and our non-GAAP operating margin expanded to 7.4% in the fourth quarter of 2019 from 6.5% in the third quarter of 2019 and 5.5% in the fourth quarter of 2018. Looking ahead, we will continue to invest in diverse content offerings, along with product innovations and technological advancement. We believe such investments will help us sustain our long-term growth and drive more future opportunities."

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial information is prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"), except that the consolidated statement of changes in shareholders' equity, consolidated statements of cash flows, and the detailed notes have not been presented. Huya uses non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income attributable to HUYA Inc., non-GAAP net income attributable to ordinary shareholders, and non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per ADS, which are non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP gross profit is gross profit excluding share-based compensation expenses allocated in cost of revenues. Non-GAAP operating income is operating income excluding share-based compensation expenses. Non-GAAP net income attributable to HUYA Inc. is net income attributable to HUYA Inc. excluding share-based compensation expenses, fair value loss on derivative liabilities and gain on fair value change of investments and equity investee's investments. Non-GAAP net income attributable to ordinary shareholders is net income attributable to ordinary shareholders excluding share-based compensation expenses, fair value loss on derivative liabilities, gain on fair value change of investments and equity investee's investments and deemed dividend to Series A redeemable convertible preferred shareholders. Non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per ADS is non-GAAP net income attributable to ordinary shareholders divided by weighted average number of ordinary shares used in the calculation of non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per ADS. The Company believes that separate analysis and exclusion of the non-cash impact of (i) share-based compensation expenses, (ii) fair value loss on derivative liabilities, (iii) gain on fair value change of investments and equity investee's investments and (iv) deemed dividend to Series A redeemable convertible preferred shareholders 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, which have been and will continue to be significant recurring expenses in its business, (ii) fair value loss on derivative liabilities and deemed dividend to Series A redeemable convertible preferred shareholders, which may not recur in the future, and (iii) gain on fair value change of investments and equity investee's investments, which may recur when there is observable price change in the future. 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 (loss) 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.

The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned "HUYA Inc. Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results" near the end of this release.
