Gross Margin
Both GAAP and non-GAAP[3] gross margin was 79%, compared with 64% in the fourth quarter of 2019 and 66% in the third quarter of 2020.
Both GAAP and non-GAAP gross margin for the brand advertising business was 31%, flat with that of fourth quarter of 2019 and third quarter of 2020.
Both GAAP and non-GAAP gross margin for online games was 90%, compared with 75% in the fourth quarter of 2019 and 80% in the third quarter of 2020. The year-over-year increase in gross margin was mainly due to an increase in online game revenues, as well as a decrease in online game costs as a result of lower revenue-sharing payments related to TLBB Honor. The quarter-over-quarter increase in gross margin was mainly due to an increase in online game revenues, while costs remained relatively flat.
[3] Non-GAAP results exclude share-based compensation expense; non-cash tax benefits from excess tax deductions related to share-based awards; changes in fair value recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations with respect to equity investments with readily determinable fair values; an impairment charge recognized for investments unrelated to the Company’s core businesses; income/expense from an adjustment of contingent consideration previously recorded for acquisitions; and interest expense recognized in connection with the one-time transition tax (the “Toll Charge”) imposed by the

Supplementary Information for Changyou Results
Fourth Quarter 2020 Operating Results
- For PC games, total average monthly active user accounts[4] (MAU) were 2.3 million, an increase of 5% year-over-year and 17% quarter-over-quarter. The year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter increases were mainly driven by the successful launch of TLBB Vintage during the quarter, partially offset by the termination of operation of Warframe. Total quarterly aggregate active paying accounts[5] (APA) were 0.9 million, a decrease of 6% year-over-year and 4% quarter-over-quarter. The decreases were mainly due to the termination of operation of Warframe.
- For mobile games, total average MAU were 2.4 million, a decrease of 35% year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter. Total quarterly APA were 0.6 million, a decrease of 46% year-over-year and 7% quarter-over-quarter. The decreases in MAU and APA compared with the fourth quarter of 2019 reflected the natural declining life cycles of Changyou’s older games, including Legacy TLBB Mobile and TLBB Honor. Comparing with the third quarter of 2020, the decrease of MAU was mainly from Illusion Connect and the decrease of APA was mainly from TLBB Honor.
[4] Monthly active user accounts refers to the number of registered accounts that are logged in to these games at least once during the month. |
[5] Quarterly aggregate active paying accounts refers to the number of accounts from which game points are utilized at least once during the quarter. |

Business Outlook
For the first quarter of 2021, Sohu estimates:
- Brand advertising revenues to be between US$27 million and
US$32 million ; this implies an annual increase of 5% to 25% and a sequential decrease of 23% to 35%. - Online game revenues to be between
US$137 million andUS$147 million ; this implies an annual increase of 3% to 10% and a sequential decrease of 25% to 30%. - Non-GAAP net income from continuing operations attributable to
Sohu.com Limited to be betweenUS$5 million andUS$15 million ; and GAAP net income from continuing operations attributable toSohu.com Limited to be betweenUS$1 million andUS$11 million .
For the first quarter 2021 guidance, the Company has adopted a presumed exchange rate of
This forecast reflects Sohu’s management’s current and preliminary view, which is subject to substantial uncertainty, particularly in view of the potential ongoing impact of the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic, which remains difficult to predict.
Non-GAAP Disclosure
To supplement the unaudited consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in
Sohu’s management believes excluding share-based compensation expense, changes in fair value recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations with respect to equity investments with readily determinable fair values; an impairment charge recognized for investments unrelated to the Company’s core businesses; non-cash tax benefits from excess tax deductions related to share-based awards; income/expense from an adjustment of contingent consideration previously recorded for acquisitions; and interest recognized in connection with the Toll Charge from its non-GAAP financial measure is useful for itself and investors. Further, the impact of share-based compensation expense and changes in fair value recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations with respect to equity investments with readily determinable fair values; impairment charge recognized for investments unrelated to the Company’s core businesses; non-cash tax benefits from excess tax deductions related to share-based awards; income/expense from the adjustment of contingent consideration previously recorded for acquisitions; and interest expense recognized in connection with the Toll Charge cannot be anticipated by management and business line leaders and these expenses were not built into the annual budgets and quarterly forecasts that have been the basis for information Sohu provides to analysts and investors as guidance for future operating performance. As the impact of share-based compensation expense and changes in fair value recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations with respect to equity investments with readily determinable fair values, an impairment charge recognized for investments unrelated to the Company’s core businesses, non-cash tax benefits from excess tax deductions related to share-based awards, and income/expense from an adjustment of contingent consideration previously recorded for acquisitions does not involve subsequent cash outflow or is reflected in the cash flows at the equity transaction level, Sohu does not factor this impact in when evaluating and approving expenditures or when determining the allocation of its resources to its business segments. As a result, in general, the monthly financial results for internal reporting and any performance measures for commissions and bonuses are based on non-GAAP financial measures that exclude share-based compensation expense and changes in fair value recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations with respect to equity investments with readily determinable fair values, an impairment charge recognized for investments unrelated to the Company’s core businesses, non-cash tax benefits from excess tax deductions related to share-based awards, and income/expense from the adjustment of contingent consideration previously recorded for acquisitions, and also excluded the interest expense recognized in connection with the Toll Charge.
The non-GAAP financial measures are provided to enhance investors’ overall understanding of Sohu’s current financial performance and prospects for the future. A limitation of using non-GAAP gross profit, operating profit, net income, net income attributable to
