Total revenues were US$141 million, up 4% year-over-year, with marketing services revenues and online game revenues both exceeding the company's previous guidance. — Beating prior guidance across major revenue lines signals improving operational momentum and directly supports upward revisions in forward earnings estimates.
+0.60Online game revenues were US$125 million, up 6% year-over-year and 3% quarter-over-quarter, constituting the vast majority of total revenue and delivering solid growth. — As the dominant revenue driver, continued sequential and annual growth in the core gaming segment reinforces the stability and profitability of Sohu's primary business.
+0.50Non-GAAP operating loss narrowed significantly to US$6 million from US$19 million in the prior year quarter, while total cost of revenues fell 10% year-over-year to US$30 million. — Substantial cost reductions driving a near-breakeven non-GAAP operating result demonstrate improved operational leverage and a clearer path to profitability.
+0.40Marketing services revenues were US$13 million, down 8% year-over-year and 26% quarter-over-quarter. — The sharp decline in the media advertising segment signals ongoing weakness and market share loss in Sohu's legacy portal business, offsetting some of the gaming strength.
