For the fourth quarter, our gross profit increased by 33% year over year and our gross profit margin reached 26.1%, marking our sixth consecutive quarter of margin expansion. We also reduced our operating expenses by 17% year over year during the fourth quarter and 14% for the full year. As a result, our adjusted net loss narrowed by 58% in the fourth quarter and 49% in 2023, both year over year, putting us on track to achieve our profitability goal. Moreover, we are delighted to share that we have achieved positive operating cash flow for the full year of 2023, and we are committed to further improving our financials in 2024.”

Total net revenues. Total net revenues were RMB6.3 billion (US$894.3 million), representing an increase of 3% from the same period of 2022.
Value-added services (VAS). Revenues from VAS were RMB2.9 billion (US$402.4 million), representing an increase of 22% from the same period of 2022, led by an increase in revenues from live broadcasting and other value-added services.
Advertising. Revenues from advertising were RMB1.9 billion (US$271.7 million), representing an increase of 28% from the same period of 2022, mainly attributable to the Company’s improved advertising product offerings and enhanced advertising efficiency.
Mobile games. Revenues from mobile games were RMB1.0 billion (US$141.8 million), representing a 12% year-over-year decrease, and a 2% quarter-over-quarter increase.

IP derivatives and others (formerly known as E-commerce and others). Revenues from IP derivatives and others were RMB556.0 million (US$78.3 million), representing a decrease of 51% from the same period of 2022, mainly attributable to a decrease in revenues from e-sports copyright sublicensing.
Cost of revenues. Cost of revenues was RMB4.7 billion (US$660.4 million), representing a decrease of 4% from the same period of 2022. The decrease was mainly due to lower content costs, server and bandwidth costs, staff costs and other costs led by effective cost control measures.

Gross profit. Gross profit was RMB1.7 billion (US$233.8 million), representing an increase of 33% from the same period of 2022, primarily attributed to the Company’s reduction of costs related to platform operations, as the Company enhanced its monetization efficiency.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company uses non-GAAP measures, such as adjusted loss from operations, adjusted net loss, adjusted net loss per share and per ADS, basic and diluted and adjusted net loss attributable to the Bilibili Inc.’s shareholders in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in its business by excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses, amortization expense related to intangible assets acquired through business acquisitions, income tax related to intangible assets acquired through business acquisitions, gain/loss on fair value change in investments in publicly traded companies, gain/loss on repurchase of convertible senior notes, expenses related to organizational optimization, and termination expenses of certain game projects. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information about the Company’s results of operations, enhance the overall understanding of the Company’s past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by the Company’s management in its financial and operational decision-making.
The non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and when assessing the Company’s operating performance, cash flows or liquidity, investors should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for net loss, cash flows provided by operating activities or other consolidated statements of operations and cash flows data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
The Company mitigates these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP performance measures, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company’s performance.
For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned “Unaudited Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results.”
