Now the mini drama in the iQIYI main app focused primarily on subscription based model, while the iQIYI lite app acquire all three drive, the mini driver supported by advertising model. Secondly, we have largely completed the construction of back-end systems, especially for content recommendations and advertising capabilities.

This not only elevates the viewing experience, but also unlocks fresh monetization opportunities. Furthermore, our mini-drama portfolio has quickly expanded to over 10,000 titles now, capturing 95% of the leading mini-drama content providers in the market. This expensive and diversified content portfolio has paved for our next stage of development. The recent program has likely increased our user base and the viewer time spent on mini-dramas in the fourth quarter with these positive trends expected to continue. Notably, in December our platform had its first mini-drama generating mostly revenue income exceeded RMB 1 million. As we enter the next phase, we are aiming to refine our products and service offerings with proven line recommendation fine tune our advertising system to appeal a broader base of new advertisers, broaden our content catalog with fresh and library titles and cultivate iQIYI original mini-drama ecosystem to provide a steady stream of high-quality content.

Moving on to membership services. Membership revenue in the first quarter was RMB 4.1 billion, down annually and sequentially, primarily due to a lighter content slate during the first two months of the quarter. However, starting from late November, we have observed a strong comeback in creating content offerings as previously discussed, driving a significant turn around in our membership business. To be specific, we have improved our long-form video content and introduced improved mini-drama for members, aiming to improve member retention and attracting new subscribers. Additionally, we have maintained a tighter supply of premium content and stepped up our promotional efforts so subscribers can eagerly anticipate new releases, thereby driving their loyalty to our platform.

Beyond content enhancement, we have classified our membership offering into two primary categories. One category tailor for individuals, the other for families. Both categories include and supporting basic service tier as well as vendor service tiers. Moreover, the family category also features our premium service level which is an outstanding plan. This plan grants additional privileges, including unlimited access to express package that provide early access to finals of our premium content, the ability to log in on up to eight supported devices and opportunities to participate in major offline events. This is classification benefits on membership business in multi base. One, it simplifies the structure of our membership plan, making their positioning clear.

Two, it captures broader user needs and the user group from value seeking individuals to those desiring more premium perks. Three, it effectively addresses the issue of unauthorized of hardware sharing. In the first quarter, to offer an improved solution to account sharing, we introduced the actual member feature. Additionally, our supported basic plan has seen a consistent uptick in subscription, especially among users in low-tier cities, and within the young demographic throughout the quarter. In a move to further elevate the value we offer, we also use a more joint membership options, which gained traction with our members. Looking into 2025, our strategy focuses on building a membership business that better caters to mass audiences. They also intend to optimize member offerings, streamline operations and improve distribution channels.

Moreover, we aim to elevate the iQIYI member brand and associate standards, ultimately boosting the value experience by our members. Moving on to the advertising business. Revenue during the quarter came in at RMB 1.4 billion, growing 7% sequentially and showing a reduced rate of annual decline when compared to the prior period. For brand ad revenue show double-digit sequential growth. This was primarily driven by the double-digit brand ad revenue growth generated by our premium dramas. In 2025, we aim to evolve our brand advertising business by diversifying our revenue streams and exploring new innovative advertising opportunities. We plan to refine client service, which will help retain our current advertisers and attract new comers from sectors like food and beverage, cosmetics and toiletries and communications.

We will also keep an eye on emerging factors such as health care, home furnishing and tourism. Additionally, we aim to increase the art of top-tier clients and explore opportunities in many drivers and advertisers customized shows. Performance ad continue to grow both annually and sequentially. This was largely driven by operational improvements on major e-commerce companies and the robust service provided to clients from Internet services sector. Notably, revenue contribution and the e-commerce factoring our shopping festival increased by over 40% annually, and the revenue from the Internet services during the quarter increased by over 30% year-over-year. To sustain this momentum going forward, we are enhancing our technical and platform capabilities to secure a large — a larger share of budgets from top-tier clients in sectors such as the e-commerce, Internet services and the video game sectors.

We will continue leveraging AI for video and the production and expand our client base to improve monetization efficiencies. We are also excited about the incremental ads inventory that mini drama could bring in 2025. Moving on to technology and products. We continue to advance the industrialization of the video business, thereby, improving our operational efficiency. Our intelligent production management system has become essential for production crews managing various tax on-site, providing them with advanced production tools and management capabilities. In the first quarter, we further enhanced the system to incorporate highly efficient production supply management capability. With regard to virtual production, we have increased the technology to push the boundary of content creation.

We are from that. Our project, Fangs of Fortune and My Journey to You both won multiple prestige industry awards for their excellent use of virtual production. Meanwhile, we have made impressive progress with our digital asset collection. Throughout the year, we have assembled immense digital asset library from hundreds of dramas, reality shows, movies and animations. It is recognized as one of the leading collections in China. We are now leveraging their assets in new video products and expanding into offline experiences. Looking forward, we are setting our sights on wider applications, including content creation, IP value-added services and immersive virtual reality experiences. Moreover, we have been expanding AI applications across content production and operations.

AI’s influence has been notably in refining our project assessment process, providing valuable insights for pressing nearly 5,000 screen plays and novels. Additionally, AI [indiscernible] in character design and the custom selection as a project approval stage based on the character description from screenplays that streamlining the creative process.

Additionally, our first original overseas variety show, Starlight expanded its success beyond our platform, achieving top position in local Google rankings for variety shows across numerous Southeast Asia countries. Furthermore, Thai dramas have emerged as a popular content upgrade on our international platform, ranking second only to see dramas. Encouraged by this trend, we are planning to increase our investments in original Thai productions. We have been focusing on expanding our international brand recognition soon reach specific events.

As we set our eyes on 2025, our main focus abroad will be to drive revenue expansion. We plan to enhance our free drama offering and improve the monetization ability of region content having established our presence in Asia, especially Southeast Asia. We are set to expand our footprint into Middle East, Latin America, and Brazil. Our approach includes reinforcing health with telecom partners seeking innovative collaborative opportunities and working up marketing initiatives to boost our brand and content impact.

In summary, we closed the year by increasing a series of reinvention and innovation that successfully propelled our business, setting a strong start to 2025. We are confident that the strong comeback of premium long-form videos, coupled with our continuous innovation in mini-dramas will serve as fuel engines during goals for 2025. Now let me pass it on to Jun who will go through our financial performance.

Jun Wang : Thank you, Mr. Gong, and hello, everyone. As Mr. Gong mentioned earlier, driven by the premium content, we have experienced a significant rebound in main operating performance in comparison to November 2024. Now let’s take a look at Q4 key numbers. In Q4, the total revenues were RMB 6.6 billion, down 14% annually. Membership services revenue reached RMB 4.1 billion, down 15% annually, primarily due to a lighter content slate. However, as Mr. Gong just mentioned, premium content had a strong rebound from late November 2024 to now. For online advertising, revenue decreased by 13% year-over-year to RMB 1.4 billion. This was primarily due to the decrease in brand advertisement business, partially offset by the growth in performance ad business.

Content distribution revenue reached RMB 406.6 million, down 20% annually, primarily due to a lower revenue from distribution of theatrical movies invested by iQIYI and a decrease in barter transactions, partially offset by increased revenue from cash transaction. Other revenues decreased by 10% annually to RMB 670.2 million. Moving on to cost and expenses. Content costs was RMB 3.4 billion, down 9% annually, primarily driven by our improvement in the content strategy as well as a lighter content slate in the quarter. Total operating expenses were RMB 1.3 billion, down 5% annually, primarily due to disciplined marketing spending. Turning to profits and cash flows. Non-GAAP operating income was RMB 405.9 million and its corresponding margin was 6%.

Net cash provided by operating activities totaled RMB 519 million, positive for 11 consecutive quarters. As of the end of Q4, we had cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and long-term restricted cash included in the prepayments and other assets around RMB 4.5 billion.

Xueqing Zhang: [Foreign Language] Thanks management for taking my question. We have noticed that iQIYI had launched many drama series since the beginning of this year.

Chang Yu: Thank you, Xueqing. We will invite our Chief Content Officer, Mr. Xiaohui Wang to answer this question. Go ahead.

Xiaohui Wang: [Foreign Language] We had a good start of the year for 2025 with the new season of ride on theater drama testing away launched in January, reaching iQIYI popularity index of over 10,000 in just six days. It is a milestone for us, because it is not only the first drama of the year to break the 10,000 in popularity, but it also is iQIYI’s ride on theaters, and our first drama with limited number of episodes to achieve this milestone. Our main goal for this year 2025 is to intend both the quality and the share of our premium top long-form video content, also ensuring a greater stability and continued the strong start to the year. In most — the most critical areas such as the drama genre, the number of premium top-tier dramas claims for release this year were significantly increased compared to last year.

We will also focus on creating a tighter narrative pace that better align with the current social sentiment and users embedded changes. And then for suspense and drama and female-oriented content that our two main programming pillars, for this year, we will continue to maintain our absolute leading advantage in the sustained and crime genre and for this year, the Light on Theater has several works planned in addition to the already launched Drifting Away, there will be more releases, such as Breaking the Shadows, Justifiable Defense, A Life for a Life, Low IQ Crime, Dead End and Beneath the Undertow.

Xiaohui Wang: [Foreign Language]

Chang You: In terms of the female-oriented content and market season title, we will further strengthen our offering and continuous programming with launch titles such as The Best Thing, Love in Pavilion, Fox Spirit Matchmaker: Sword and Beloved, A Dream Within a Dream, Build and Strange Tales of Tang Dynasty Season 3.

Xiaohui Wang: [Foreign Language]

Chang You: Thank you.

Operator: Your next question comes from Lei Zhang with Bank of America Securities. Please go ahead.

Lei Zhang: [Foreign Language] Thanks management for taking my question. I want to know further updates on your short mini drama area? And do we have any strategic plan on mini drama in 2025?

Yu Gong: [Foreign Language]

Chang You: Our CEO is actually taking this question. He, first of all, would like to clear the definition of mini dramas that we’ve been talking about in his opening remarks. So for mini dramas, we identified them after vertical format, one to three minutes long. And then this is the main area that we’re focusing on. For the horizontal mini dramas, which is quite similar to the long form video content that we have the edge on, so this is something different. So we decided to invest in the mini drama business about one quarter ago. The reason there are two aspects. First of all, right now, because the users are more to the fast pace content and they have a shorter attention spend, and then they also enjoy content in a more fragmented time look.

So that’s the first reason. And also from the industry perspective and a market perspective, for 2024, the market size for mini dramas, although there are different data that estimated by third parties, but we believe it should be greater than the Chinese office for 2024. For 2025, we are ramping some rebound of the office during the Chinese New Year. However, that we still think the mini drama market should still over exceed the Chinese box office in 2025. Our mini drama business actually have successfully completed [indiscernible] that we set for the first phase, achieving significant results in three areas for user product transformation, content portfolio and also building a [indiscernible] system development. Currently, actually, our mini drama content library has over 10,000 titles, and it has reached a – that’s comparable to the leading mini drama platforms in the industry.

There are two reasons about how we achieved such a significant improvement in a very short amount of time. First of all, for our team, actually, we have a very mature whether it’s IT team, a technology team, product team, and also the operational team, all these have over 10 years of experiences. Although, mini drama is a new genre, but there are a lot of the know-how that we can replicate from the long form video experience. That’s the first reason. The second reason is we have a very deep connection with the industry and also the industry resources, specifically for content providers for the industry. Most of them, we have existing — we have actually collaborated with them in the past or we have existing collaborations. So, the above three — two reasons help us to achieve such progress in short amount of time.

For our main IT app, the position is still focusing on the long-term digital content and then focusing on the subscriber based revenue model. For iQIYI Lite, we have quickly revamped this app and then now it is prioritized in three mini dramas and then supported by the advertising model. In terms of the user time spent for the [indiscernible] app, the mini drama timeshare now is actually close to the scale of animation, cartoon, and also [indiscernible]. iQIYI Lite, the mini drama timeshare is the second largest content genre, only second behind long form video content. I’ll quickly introduce the next stage, a key [indiscernible]. The first one is we’ll focus on introducing the leading mini drama titles and then for ITE. Second is to build the ITE original mini drama ecosystem.

For the Chinese New Year period, actually, we have already launched quite a few titles. And next, two tasks are focusing on to hopefully, we can increase the inventory of mini drama advertising and to enhance the monetization capabilities of mini dramas, we would like to actually explore more advertising budget and also the new formats of advertising budget from the app space. Last, but not least, we will try to increase more investment in terms of user growth. Hopefully, we can attract more users to bring them to iQIYI to watch mini dramas.

Yu Gong: Thank you.

Operator: Your next question comes from Lincoln Kong with Goldman Sachs. Please go ahead.

Lincoln Kong: [Foreign Language] So, thank you management for taking my questions. My question is about the membership business. So regarding the recent content performance and how is the impact from those measures like Semi-Card or Star Diamond member extra content gives on those — the impact on the membership business, as well as the strategy for full year 2025? Thank you.

Chang Yu: Thank you, Lincoln, and I will invite Mr. Youqiao Duan, the Senior Vice President of Membership Business, who will take this question. Go ahead.

Youqiao Duan: [Foreign Language] Since late November 2024, the continuous programming of premium titles dramas have actually driven the membership business to a turning point, resulting in a significant increase in subscribing members. We actually rolled out several key initiatives for 2024. We have reclassified our membership offering into two primary categories, one for individuals and for families. For individuals, there are actually two plans with no large-string access. And for families, there’s three plans with large-string access. The membership rights and benefits are divided into three tiers; basic, standard and premium. The new reclassified membership system actually allows users seeking either high cost effectiveness or premium benefits experience to find products that suite their needs.

Second, we strengthened the crackdown on password sharing, while introducing the actual account service as an authorized sharing solution, effectively expanding the membership base and improving member retention. The third point that we did was we enhanced the benefits for members. The newly added benefit for S Diamond members, the limited complementary early access to the Express Packages that provide early access to finales of a premium content, increased value and perception of premium membership. After the launch of the new benefits, the number of S Diamond members have largely increased with most of the new members attracted by the Express Package benefits and the existing S Diamond members have also been noticeably more active on the platform.

[Foreign Language] We have a few areas that we’re focusing on for 2025. First, we’ll continuously enhance the stability and continuity of our top care premium content programming and strengthening the prerelease promotion for upcoming content, establish mindshare among users to improve their loyalty to iQIYI. [Foreign Language] Second, we’ll build — focusing on building a mass-market membership service to increase membership sales and revenue, while focusing on attracting new members will prioritize improving member retention and user engagement and also will increase the revenue scale and revenue share from external channels. [Foreign Language] Third, we will systematically continue to optimize the membership product and operations including further refining the membership product system and pricing strategy, also membership benefits and for improving the member user experience and also crafting a membership model tailored for mini-dramas.

[Foreign Language] The fourth, we will strengthen the quality of membership services and iQIYI brand, enhance the perception of membership benefits and privileges and also improve the overall net promoter score for iQIYI members. Thank you.

Operator: Your next question comes from Maggie Ye with CLSA. Please go ahead.

Maggie Ye : [Foreign Language] Just now we heard about some encouraging performance in overseas markets in terms of both membership revenue and subscribing members. Could you please provide an update on the core strategy for our overseas business in 2025? Thank you.

Chang You: Thank you, Maggie. We’ll invite Mr. Xianghua Yang, the Senior Vice President of our Overseas Business to take those questions. Go ahead.
