Net revenue for 1Q24 was RMB26.9 billion, elevating 7.2% YoY.
Games and related value-added services logged net revenue of RMB21.5 billion, inclining 7% YoY.

Cloud Music reported net revenue of RMB2.0 billion, inclining 3.6% YoY.

Gross profit margin for games and related value-added services for 1Q24 was 69.5%, compared to 69.5% in 4Q23 and 66.7% in 1Q23.
The YoY increase was mainly attributable to the revenue contribution from different platforms and self-developed games.
According to NetEase, there will be more highly anticipated new product launches in the future, including the release of the open-world action-adventure role-playing game "Where Winds Meet" in 3Q24, and the release of "Justice" mobile in more regions.
Other new products of various genres are also under the spotlight, including "Naraka: Bladepoint" mobile, "Once Human" and "Marvel Rivals".
The group also renewed its distribution agreement with Blizzard Entertainment to bring beloved games titles back to the Chinese market, and will also embark on a wider cooperation with Microsoft Gaming.
As of the end of March, the group had purchased approximately 8.9 million ADSs totalling approximately US$811 million under the repurchase programme.

<Research>M Stanley Downgrades NetEase (NTES.US) to Equalweight, Cuts TP to US$100
2024/05/23
Morgan Stanley issued a report on NetEase (NTES.US), downgrading the rating of its US-listed shares (ADRs) from Overweight to Equalweight and trimming the target price from US$120 to US$100.
The broker lowered its EPS forecast for the stock from 2024 to 2026 by 6-12%, while forecasting game revenue and net profit to rise by 6-7% YoY this year and next year.
The broker removed NetEase from its top picks list in April because of a number of risks.
Among them were the weakening of China's macro-economy, which could lead to a shift in consumption towards higher price-performance ratio items such as casual games and minigames, as well as potential regulatory tightenings that may limit player spending and some monetisation initiatives.
Related News: NTES-S 1Q Non-GAAP NP $8.5B, Up 12% YoY, In Line
NetEase has an estimated market share of about 50% for massively multiplayer online role-playing games (MMORPGs), which have the highest average revenue per user.
However, the market share of minigames is increasing in China, and the potential for future NetEase game revenues may be discounted.
Morgan Stanley also pointed out that NetEase may face a decline in the return on its invested capital in the future, including the low-priced cosmetics at "Justice Mobile" and "Condor Heroes", the RMB10 billion subsidy for "Justice Mobile" and "Eggy Party", and the adjustment of the monetisation model of "Fantasy Westward Journey" on PC.
Furthermore, in response to Tencent's "Dream Star", NetEase's sales and marketing costs soared in 4Q23, a situation that could be repeated when competition rekindles between "Naraka Bladepoint Mobile" by NetEase and "Honor of Kings: Breaking Dawn" by Tencent in the coming Summer.
The separate launches of mobile and PC versions of " Where Winds Meet" also affected the market's expectations for the game's grossing stream.

NetEase (9999 HK)
1Q24: Results In Line; 2Q24 Game Growth Could Be Better Than Feared
NetEase’s 1Q24 results are largely within consensus expectation.
Revenue grew 7.2% yoy to Rmb26.9b, in line with our and consensus forecasts.
Net profit rose 12.5% yoy to Rmb8.5b, 2% above consensus estimates.
We believe Netease’s online games revenue growth will be reignited in 2H24 due to the incremental grossing from upcoming game launches and agreement renewal with Blizzard.
Maintain BUY with a lower target price of HK$180.00 (US$115.00).

<Research>G Sachs: NTES-S (09999.HK) 1Q24 non-GAAP NP Slightly Beats; Rating Buy w/ TP HK$198
2024/05/24
Goldman Sachs wrote in a report that NTES-S (09999.HK) (NTES.US) achieved 7% YoY growth in revenue during 1Q24, while non-GAAP net profit rose 12% YoY, slightly better than expected.
Mobile game revenue during the quarter lifted 19% YoY, strongly beating estimates and offsetting slightly worse-than-expected PC game revenue.
The broker commented that NetEase's handheld game revenue visibility is gradually increasing in 2Q24, based on solid cash-generation growth and management's confidence in the limited impact of PC game monetisation changes.
Game revenue in 3Q24 is however uncertain, as the group confirmed delays in the launch of two major games, amid escalating direct competition from TENCENT (00700.HK), as well as a slowdown in gross margin expansion due to the shift of game portfolio towards slower-growing legacy PC titles.
Related News: M Stanley: NetEase (NTES.US) Last Q Profit Misses; Shr Price May Drop Next 60 Days
Nevertheless, Goldman believed that the 3% cumulative gain in NetEase this year, which underperformed the 11% rise in KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF (KWEB.US) implied that major risks have been priced in.
The company also possessed strong near-term fundamentals and instant terminal value for its core intellectual property, while management has a track record of executing in the face of competition.
Coupling with valuation trending to a near-decade-low, all these factors pointed to an upside in the risk-return profile.
Goldman maintained a Buy rating on NetEase, with ADR and H-share target prices at US$127 and HK$198 respectively.

<Research>HTSC Reduces NetEase (NTES.US) TP to US$120.5; 1Q Mobile Game Growth Pace Beats
2024/05/27
NTES-S (09999.HK) 's 1Q24 revenue was basically in line with expectations, with mobile game revenue growing 19% YoY, exceeding expectations by more than 5%, according to a research report from Huatai Securities.
NetEase recently announced adjustments to the payment programme in Fantasy Westward Journey in order to improve the game's ecosystem, while revenue growth of old games slowed during the off-season.
Although these factors have led to a pullback in the share price, the broker believed fundamentals are expected to remain stable in the medium term, taking into account the launch of new games and the contribution of existing blockbusters.
Related NewsCiti: NetEase, Inc. (NTES.US) 1Q Rev. in Line; Earnings Beat
Huatai believed that Justice Mobile would still contribute significant deferred revenue in 2Q24, while the launch of Where Winds Meet and Naraka: Bladepoint Mobile in 2H24 could bring catalysts.
In the long run, the broker is optimistic that NetEase will continue to increase its commercialisation capabilities and market share through the launch of well-known large-scale IPs.
However, due to the slowdown in the growth of the handheld game, the broker has cut its adjusted net profit forecasts for 2024/25/26 by 7.5%, 1% and 1.2% to RMB35.2 billion, RMB43.5 billion and RMB49.6 billion respectively.
Huatai reduced its target price for NetEase US shares from US$127.9 to US$120.5, and the Buy rating was maintained.

<Research>JPM Expects New Game Releases by NTES-S (09999.HK) in 2H24 to Drive Revaluation, Maintains OW
Recent change in monetisation models for certain massively multiplayer online role-playing games (MMORPGs), including the PC version of Fantasy Westward Journey.
The broker concluded that the short-term impact would be small, and that such a strategic change should support the long-term healthy growth of these games.
Related News: Nomura Lowers TP of NTES-S (09999.HK) to $210; 2 Major Games to Launch in Summer Holiday
According to JPM, NetEase has underperformed the market YTD, mainly due to investor concerns about its traditional game realisations and the prospects for new games.
The stock is currently trading at 13x its 2024 P/E ratio, the lowest in the past five years and below its Asian online game peers.
Nevertheless, the broker expected NetEase's new game launches from 3Q24 onwards to drive faster game growth, and valuations to rise from current levels.
JPM reiterated NetEase is its top pick in the mainland online game industry. The broker maintained its Overweight rating and an H-share target price of HK$200.

<Research>Jefferies: NTES-S (09999.HK) Shr Price Overreacted Ytd; Rating Buy Kept
NTES-S (09999.HK) adjusted the economic system in its PC game Fantasy Westward Journey, striking a blow at the virtual trading ecosystem among gamers and triggering concerns in the market, Jefferies released a research report saying.
The event dragged NTES-S' share price down by about 3% yesterday (18th).
Jefferies believed that the share price is overreacting, and said that game operators' management and restriction in the trading of high-value virtual weapons foster the healthy development of the game community, while the depreciation of game coin is within expectations.
The game's average daily active users remain stable after this round of adjustments.
The fact that the adjustment took place in 1Q24 suggests that the market's concern about the continued weakness of the game in 2Q24 is overdone.
Jefferies said that NTES-S has stronger execution ability in game development. Apart from the existing Fantasy Westward Journey mobile game, Identity V, Eggy Party and the PC version of Naraka: Bladepoint, various new games are in the process of development, including Once Human, Naraka：Bladepoint mobile game and Where Winds Meet.
Jefferies believed that the outlook for the game portfolio is stable, and kept rating at Buy, with a target price of $129.

<Research>M Stanley: NTES-S (09999.HK) System Adjustment on PC Game Fantasy Westward Journey Has Negative Impact
Based on a channel check including interviews of veteran gamers (with over 20 years of experience), NTES-S (09999.HK) made system adjustments to the PC version of Fantasy Westward Journey on 21 May, putting the game into a negative spiral that led to a depreciation in its virtual currency, Morgan Stanley said.
Based on limited tracking data, Morgan Stanley did not expect market consensus forecasts to reflect the event until 2Q24 results in August.
Assuming that earnings will be flat YoY this year, Morgan Stanley estimated that the current PE ratio of 13.5x is not compelling.
Therefore, the broker kept rating at Equal weight and a target price of US$100 on NTES-S' ADR.
