each period. This release contains translations of certain RMB amounts into US$ for convenience*.

Fourth Quarter of 2018 Financial Results

Net revenues

Total net revenues were RMB3,843.9 million (US$559.1 million) in the fourth quarter of 2018, an increase of 50% from RMB2,554.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2017.

Live video service revenues were RMB2,959.2 million (US$430.4 million) in the fourth quarter of 2018, an increase of 36% from RMB2,169.0 million during the same period of 2017. The growth in live video revenues was contributed by the increase in quarterly paying users, as well as the increase in average revenues per paying user per quarter.

Value-added service revenues mainly include membership subscription revenues and virtual gift revenues. The total value-added service revenues were RMB722.4 million (US$105.1 million) in the fourth quarter of 2018, an increase of 272% from RMB194.3 million during the same period of 2017. The year-over-year increase was primarily attributable to the continued growth of the virtual gift business on the Momo application driven by more paying use cases introduced to enhance the social experience of Momo users, and to a lesser extent, the consolidation of Tantan's membership subscription revenues for the whole fourth quarter of 2018.

Mobile marketing revenues were RMB 122.1 million (US$17.8 million) in the fourth quarter of 2018, a decrease of 15% from RMB144.4 million during the same period of 2017. The decrease in mobile marketing revenues was driven by the decreased demand from our advertising and marketing customers.

Mobile games revenues were RMB25.5 million (US$3.7 million) in the fourth quarter of 2018, a decrease of 44% from RMB45.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2017. The decrease in game revenues was mainly due to the continued decrease in quarterly paying users.

Revenues from other services in the fourth quarter of 2018 mainly consisted of revenues from Phanta City, a TV variety show co-produced by the Company.

Cost and expenses

Cost and expenses were RMB3,195.7 million (US$464.8 million) in the fourth quarter of 2018, an increase of 65% from RMB1,939.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2017. The increase was primarily attributable to: (a) an increase in revenue sharing with the broadcasters related to our live video service and virtual gift recipients; (b) an increase in marketing and promotional expenses to enhance our brand awareness and attract users; (c) an increase in personnel related costs including share-based compensation expenses as a result of the Company's rapidly expanding talent pool; (d) an increase in fees to payment channels resulting from a higher volume of cash collection through such channels; and (e) an increase in amortization expenses related to the intangible assets from business acquisitions.

Non-GAAP cost and expenses (note 1) were RMB2,959.6 million (US$430.5 million) in the fourth quarter of 2018, an increase of 59% from RMB1,856.9 million during the same period of 2017.

Other operating income

Other operating income was RMB141.4 million (US$20.6 million) in the fourth quarter of 2018, a significant increase from RMB92.6 million during the fourth quarter of 2017. The increase was mainly due to more government incentives received in the fourth quarter of 2018.

Income from operations

Income from operations was RMB789.6 million (US$114.8 million) in the fourth quarter of 2018, compared to RMB708.1 million during the same period of 2017.

Non-GAAP income from operations (note 1) was RMB1,025.7 million (US$149.2 million) in the fourth quarter of 2018, compared to RMB790.6 million during the same period of 2017.

Income tax expenses

Income tax expenses were RMB183.3 million (US$26.7 million) in the fourth quarter of 2018 and increased from RMB126.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2017. The increase was mainly because we generated higher profit in the fourth quarter of 2018.

Net income attributable to Momo Inc.

Net income attributable to Momo Inc. was RMB660.8 million (US$96.1 million) in the fourth quarter of 2018, compared to RMB644.8 million during the same period of 2017.

Non-GAAP net income (note 1) attributable to Momo Inc. was RMB887.4 million (US$129.1 million) in the fourth quarter of 2018, compared to RMB727.4 million during the same period of 2017.

Net income per ADS

Diluted net income per ADS was RMB3.04 (US$0.44) in the fourth quarter of 2018, compared to RMB 3.10 in the fourth quarter of 2017.

As of December 31, 2018, Momo's cash, cash equivalents, term deposits and short-term investment totaled RMB11,292.6 million (US$1,642.4 million), compared to RMB6,904.7 million as of December 31, 2017. Net cash provided by operating activities in the fourth quarter of 2018 was RMB1,163.4 million (US$169.2 million), compared to RMB790.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2017.

Full Year 2018 Financial Results

Net revenues for the full year of 2018 were RMB13,408.4 million (US$1,950.2 million), an increase of 51% from RMB8,886.4 million in the same period of 2017, primarily driven by the significant increase in net revenues from live video service and value-added service.

Net income attributable to Momo Inc. was RMB2,815.8 million (US$409.5 million) in the full year of 2018, compared to RMB2,148.1 million during the same period of 2017.

Recent Development - Declaration of Special Cash Dividend

Momo's board of directors has declared a special cash dividend in the amount of US$0.62 per ADS, or US$0.31 per ordinary share. The cash dividend will be paid on April 30, 2019 to shareholders of record at the close of business on April 5, 2019. The ex-dividend date will be April 4, 2019. The aggregate amount of cash dividends to be paid is approximately US$128 million, which will be funded by surplus cash on the Company's balance sheet.

Business Outlook

For the first quarter of 2019, the Company expects total net revenues to be between RMB3.55 billion to RMB3.65 billion, representing an increase of 28% to 32% year over year, on a constant currency basis. The Company is not providing the business outlook in USD terms due to the recent volatility and uncertainty in foreign exchange rate. These estimates reflect the Company's current and preliminary view, which is subject to change.

Note 1: Non-GAAP measures

To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), we use various non-GAAP financial measures that are adjusted from the most comparable GAAP results to exclude share-based compensation and amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions, and tax impacts related to the amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions.

Reconciliations of our non-GAAP financial measures to our U.S. GAAP financial measures are shown in tables at the end of this earnings release, which provide more details about the non-GAAP financial measures.

Our non-GAAP financial information is provided as additional information to help investors compare business trends among different reporting periods on a consistent basis and to enhance investors' overall understanding of the historical and current financial performance of our continuing operations and our prospects for the future. Our non-GAAP financial information should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to the GAAP results. In addition, our calculation of the non-GAAP financial measures may be different from the calculation used by other companies, and therefore comparability may be limited.

Our non-GAAP information (including non-GAAP cost and operating expenses, income from operations, net income attributable to Momo Inc., and diluted net income per ADS) is adjusted from the most comparable GAAP results to exclude share-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions, and tax impacts related to the amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions. A limitation of using these non-GAAP financial measures is that share-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions and tax impacts related to the amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions have been and will continue to be for the foreseeable future a significant recurring expense in our results of operations. We compensate for these limitations by providing reconciliations of our non-GAAP measures to our U.S. GAAP measures. Please see the reconciliation tables at the end of this earnings release.
