3Q2025 Management Discussion and Analysis
Revenues from VAS increased by 16% year-on-year to RMB95.9 billion for 3Q2025. Domestic Games revenues were RMB42.8 billion, up 15% year-on-year, primarily reflecting contributions from recently released games such as Delta Force, growth in revenues from evergreen games such as Honour of Kings and Peacekeeper Elite, and the expansion of VALORANT from PC to mobile. International Games revenues were RMB20.8 billion, representing a 43% year-on-year increase (42% on a constant-currency basis), mainly due to higher revenues from Supercell's games, recognising revenue upfront on copy sales of new game release, and to consolidation of recently acquired studios. Social Networks revenues rose by 5% year-on-year to RMB32.3 billion, due to growth in Video Accounts live streaming revenue, music subscription revenue and Mini Games platform service fees.
Revenues from Marketing Services were RMB36.2 billion for 3Q2025, up 21% year-on-year. The growth was due to higher ad impressions, benefitting from increased user engagement and ad load, coupled with higher eCPMs, driven by AI-powered ad targeting. Advertising spending increased across all major industry categories during the quarter.
Revenues from FinTech and Business Services rose by 10% year-on-year to RMB58.2 billion for 3Q2025. FinTech Services revenue grew at a high single-digit percentage rate year-on-year, primarily due to higher revenues from commercial payment activities and consumer loan services. Business Services revenues grew at a teens percentage rate year-on-year, reflecting higher cloud services revenues, including those driven by increased enterprise customer demand for AI-related services, and higher eCommerce technology service fees arising from growth in Mini Shops GMV.
