Why Garena Can Boost Tencent's Revenue From Mobile Games

by Motek Moyen

Summary

Garena has launched Arena of Valor in South East Asia. Arena of Valor is the English version of Tencent’s Chinese MOBA mobile game, Honor of Kings.

The China-only Honor of Kings is the world’s top-grossing mobile game. However, Tencent imposed daily playing time limit for teens in China last July.

Honor of Kings’ revenue stream in China will be affected by the restriction on daily playing time. Garena's Arena of Valor can improve Tencent’s revenue from mobile games.

Garena is partly-owned by Tencent. It is also the biggest online games operator in South East Asia. South East Asia has a fast-growing mobile games industry.

Garena is planning its $1 billion U.S. IPO. Garena might also become the publisher for Arena of Valor in North America.

As per Statista’s 2016 estimates, South East Asia’s mobile gaming industry generated $828.5 million in revenue last year. This is expected to grow to $1.8 billion by 2020.


Prior to the daily play time restrictions, Honor of Kings could generate monthly revenue of 1.8 billion Yuan ($271 million).


Tencent previously announced that it also plans to launch Arena of Valor in the U.S. It makes sense to expect that Tencent will again pick Garena to be the North America publisher of Arena of Valor.

Tencent: What to Expect from 3Q Earnings

By Adam Routh

Jefferies has raised its price target on Tencent Holdings (700.HK) ahead of the China internet giant's third quarter results on Nov.13.

Analyst Karen Chan forecasts a 54.6% year-on-year jump in third quarter revenue to CNY62.4 billion driven by strong growth in its Mobile Games and Digital Content divisions.

Non-GAAP net profit is expected to come in 40.3% higher at CNY16.5, while with non-GAAP operating margin is expected to drop 5.4 percentage points 31.8% due to higher content cost over summer.

Chan forecasts mobile game revenue of CNY17.1 billion (+16% QoQ, +73% YoY) on the back of stable growth for its hugely popular made-for-smartphone games including gaming sensation Honour of Kings and newly launched King of Chaos.

The analyst expects PC game growth to normalize in the third quarter to about an 8% year-on-year pace following strong 29% growth in the second quarter, partly due to deferred revenue recognition carried over from the first quarter.

Overall advertising revenue is on track to reach CNY43 billion in FY17, +59% YoY, driven by strong summer seasonality of FMCG and entertainment verticals, says Chan.

Chan forecasts digital content services to deliver 50% year-on-year growth in FY17 driven by an an increase in its paying subscribers in video, music, literature and virtual gifting within live broadcast.

Chan maintained her buy rating on the stock and raised her price target to HKD405 a share (from HKD390), implying 16% upside.

Shares in Tencent, which owns social networking tool Wechat, are up 0.63% today. They have gained 84.5% year-to-date.

Tencent spikes on music arm move

by Janice Huang

Chinese internet giant Tencent Holdings' (0700) share price hit a record high yesterday, buoyed by reports about its plan to spin off its music arm and have it listed in Hong Kong or New York next year to raise at least US$1 billion (HK$7.8 billion), as well as the to-be- listed China Literature.

Tencent Music Entertainment Group, comprised of QQ Music, Kugou and Kuwo apps, has started preparing for an IPO after China Literature's seeking a HK$8.58 billion public offering in the city. Tencent yesterday closed 2.92 percent higher at HK$360.

Tencent Music, which provides free streaming services, has 700 million monthly active users.

However, only about 2.5 percent of its monthly active users, or 17.5 million, are paying customers.

Meanwhile, China Literature, which has reportedly frozen HK$520 billion worth of investors' subscription is tipped to price its IPO at HK$55 per share, at the top of its HK$48 to HK$55 indicative price range.

Tencent's new blockbuster

by Janice Huang

The new game launched yesterday by Tencent Holdings (0700) has attracted millions of players, raising prospects that it will replicate the huge success of Honor of Kings, the blockbuster game of the Chinese gaming and social media giant.

More than 2.5 million gamers booked yesterday Tencent's new game, Passion Leads Army.

Tencent's new offering refers to the hot game, Playerunknown's Battlegrounds, prompting market analysts to take a positive view on the company's new game.

Tencent's Honor of Kings has been a major contributor to the internet giant's revenue since the game opened to the public in 2015.

In the first half of this year, Tencent's gaming revenue reached 46.7 billion yuan (HK$54.92 billion), 36 percent higher from a year earlier. It cited Honor of Kings, which has about 50 million active users, for the significant revenue growth. Meanwhile, Tencent's call option traded as high as HK$688 and turnover reached HK$11.2 billion.

Tencent now holds 12 percent of Snapchat operator, Snap Inc, Snap said yesterday. The US firm's share price has fallen 20 percent after the market's negative view of its third-quarter results.

Much-slower-than expected advertising revenue and user growth turned off Snap Inc shareholders, fueling a drop in its share price.

Snap's share price stood at US$14.80 (HK$115.44) in premarket trading yesterday, just 2 percent down from Tuesday's close of US$15.12.

Snap said in its quarterly report yesterday that Tencent bought 145.8 million shares of Snap's non-voting Class A common stock in the open market.

Snap had about 1.2 billion shares outstanding as of October 31.

This Chinese tech giant is now worth more than Facebook

https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2017/09/ ... t-tencent/



Facebook is no longer the world’s most valuable social network.

Chinese technology giant Tencent, its share price bolstered by stronger-than-expected quarterly results, became the first Asian firm to join the club of publicly traded companies worth more than $500 billion. And in the process, ousted Facebook from the global top five companies by market value.

1. Always wait for the setup. NO SETUP; NO TRADE

2. The trend will END but I don't know WHEN.
