Sea Limited Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2018 Results

SINGAPORE,Feb. 27,2019 -- Sea Limited (NYSE: SE) ("Sea" or the "Company") today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31,2018.

Highlights

- Group

Total adjusted revenue for the full year of 2018 reached US$1,048.7 million,more than 10.4% above the midpoint of our previous guidance,which was revised upwards twice during 2018.

- Digital Entertainment

Adjusted revenue for the full year of 2018 reached US$661.0 million,more than 8.4% above the midpoint of our previous guidance.

Adjusted revenue was up 60.0% from the third quarter to the fourth quarter of 2018 to reach US$231.4 million,and is expected to show further robust growth in the first quarter of 2019.

Adjusted EBITDA margin increased to 45.5% for the fourth quarter of 2018 from 37.2% for the third quarter of 2018,and is expected to improve further in the first quarter of 2019.

Our first fully self-developed game,Free Fire,continued to see good momentum and recently achieved more than 350 million registered users and more than 40 million peak daily active users,and was the world's fourth most downloaded game across the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store combined in 2018,according to App Annie.

Free Fire is also one of the most popular games in Latin America. According to App Annie,Free Fire was the top ranked game in Brazil in 2018 by average monthly active users,downloads and consumer spend,and ranked in the top five in each category in both Mexico and Argentina. We believe this demonstrates our ability to penetrate fast growing emerging markets globally,which greatly expands our total addressable market base beyond just our core markets.

We also recently launched Speed Drifters,a localized version of Tencent's hit game QQ Speed,and the first game published under our right of first refusal arrangement with Tencent.

We have partnered with PUBG Corporation to bring PUBG LITE to several of our key markets in Southeast Asia.

- E-commerce

Gross merchandise value ("GMV") for the full year of 2018 reached US$10.3 billion,more than 8.8% above the midpoint of our previous guidance.

GMV was US$3.4 billion for the fourth quarter of 2018,up 27.3% quarter-on-quarter from US$2.7 billion for the third quarter of 2018.

Gross orders for the fourth quarter of 2018 totaled 206.9 million,up 30.5% quarter-on-quarter from 158.5 million for the third quarter of 2018.

Annual active buyers for 2018 totaled 49.9 million,up 130.0% year-on-year from 21.7 million for 2017.

According to App Annie,Shopee was the most downloaded app in the Shopping category in Southeast Asia and Taiwan in 2018.

Adjusted revenue for the full year of 2018 reached US$290.7 million,up 1,540.8% year-on-year. In the fourth quarter of 2018,adjusted revenue was up 78.2% from the third quarter of 2018,to reach US$126.9 million.

Adjusted revenue as a percentage of GMV increased to 3.7% in the fourth quarter of 2018,up from 2.6% in the previous quarter and 0.6% for the same period a year ago.

Sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of GMV fell once again to 5.4% in the fourth quarter of 2018,down from 5.7% in the previous quarter and 8.5% for the same period a year ago.

Shipping subsidies declined in absolute dollar terms in the fourth quarter compared to the third quarter,even as order numbers grew by 30.5% during the same period.

We expect sales and marketing expenses to start trending downwards in absolute dollar terms in 2019,as Shopee continues to scale with increasing efficiency,benefiting from strong organic user growth,and solidify its market leadership in our region.

We expect Shopee to record a positive quarterly adjusted EBITDA before allocation of the headquarters' common expenses for the first time in the first quarter of 2019 in Taiwan.

In Indonesia,Shopee's largest market,Shopee recorded 83.8 million orders in the fourth quarter of 2018,or a daily average of 0.9 million,further extending its leadership as the largest e-commerce platform in the market.

Guidance

For the full year of 2019,we currently expect adjusted revenue for digital entertainment to be between US$1.2 billion and US$1.3 billion,representing 81.5% to 96.7% growth from 2018.

We currently expect adjusted revenue for e-commerce for the full year of 2019 to be between US$630 million and US$660 million,representing year-on-year growth of 116.7% to 127.0%.

Strategic Business Updates

Digital Entertainment

In 2018,Garena recorded strong results and materially expanded our digital entertainment business from being a PC-focused regional publisher to a leading global developer and publisher,with core strengths in mobile games and a key focus on emerging markets. In the fourth quarter of 2018,our adjusted revenue from mobile games,self-developed game,and regions outside our current core markets accounted for 85.1%,44.5% and 28.0% of our total digital entertainment adjusted revenue,respectively.

Our game development studio in Shanghai now has more than 200 developers focused on enhancing our existing game and building out our pipeline of self-developed games. Our first global self-developed hit game,is now one of the world's most popular mobile battle royale titles. According to App Annie,for the full year of 2018,Free Fire was the fourth most downloaded game across the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store combined. It has also hit the milestone of recording more than 100 million monthly active users. Moreover,since late 2018,we have been rolling out our first global eSports tournament for Free Fire,the Free FireWorld Cup.

Meanwhile,we continued to strengthen our relationships with our long-term game publishing partners and leading global developers to enhance Garena's portfolio of top quality content. In January 2019,we launched Speed Drifters,a localized version of Tencent's hit game QQ Speed. Speed Drifters is the first game from the Tencent portfolio published under our recently announced right of first refusal arrangement with Tencent. Furthermore,we have agreed with PUBG Corporation to bring into several of our key markets in Southeast Asia PUBG LITE,a PC game adapted from their global hit game PUBG.

E-commerce

Shopee saw sustained strong growth in the fourth quarter and full year of 2018,with GMV,orders,and adjusted revenue each increasing sharply,and sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of GMV continuing to decline.

Just three years since the launch of the platform,Shopee's annual GMV has exceeded US$10 billion. We believe that Shopee's rapid growth and ascent to regional market leadership over such a short period of time reflects the success of our strategy to build a mobile-centric,socially engaging marketplace with the right product category focus and with integrated and comprehensive user services – as well as our ability to execute this strategy efficiently and effectively.

Shopee continues to scale with increasing efficiency as it enjoys the increasingly powerful flywheel effects of an e-commerce marketplace. During the fourth quarter,we saw robust consumer engagement in our large-scale sales events for 11.11 and 12.12. We set a new record for orders in a single day with more than 12 million orders recorded over the 24 hours of December 12,2018. Approximately 5.4 million of those orders were recorded in Indonesia alone.

While the level of user engagement in the fourth quarter of 2018 broke all previous records,Shopee's sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of GMV declined further during the fourth quarter to 5.4%,compared to 5.7% in the third quarter of 2018. Moreover,shipping subsidies fell in absolute dollar terms in the fourth quarter compared to the third quarter,even as GMV and order numbers continued to grow sharply.

Our focus on engaging with sellers and enhancing the online shopping experience for buyers is also delivering strong financial results for Shopee. During the fourth quarter,e-commerce adjusted revenue reached US$126.9 million,261.9% year-on-year from US$9.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2017 and up 78.2% quarter-on-quarter from US$71.2 million for the third quarter of 2018. This strong growth in revenue was primarily driven by the expansion of our e-commerce marketplace,as we deepened our relationships and engagement with sellers and buyers,and enhanced our e-commerce ecosystem. Ramping up monetization in tandem with promoting the efficient growth of the Shopee ecosystem will continue to be our key focus for 2019.

(2) Unallocated expenses are mainly related to share-based compensation and general and corporate administrative costs such as professional fees and other miscellaneous items that are not allocated to segments. These expenses are excluded from segment results as they are not reviewed by the Chief Operation Decision Maker ("CODM") as part of segment performance.

Sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of GMV decreased to 5.4% in the fourth quarter of 2018 from 8.5% in the fourth quarter of 2017 as we continue to improve the efficiency of our marketing efforts and leverage organic user acquisition opportunities.

General and Administrative Expenses

Our general and administrative expenses increased by 68.4% to US$87.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2018 from US$51.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2017. This increase was primarily due to the expansion of our staff force,the increase in office facilities and related expenses,impairment loss on our assets,as well as the increase in professional fees and other expenses.

Research and Development Expenses

Our research and development expenses increased by 207.3% to US$26.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2018 from US$8.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2017,primarily due to the increase in our research and development staff force as we expanded and enriched our product offerings.

Non-operating Income or Losses,Net

Non-operating income or losses consists of interest income,interest expense,investment gain (loss),fair value change for convertible notes and foreign exchange gain (loss). The amount was a net non-operating income of US$53.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2018,compared to a net non-operating loss of US$62.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2017. The non-operating gain in 2018 was primarily due to a fair value gain of US$61.2 million in this quarter on the convertible notes issued before our initial public offering partially offset by interest expense on our convertible notes issued in 2018,while the net non-operating loss in 2017 was primarily due to a fair value loss of US$52.0 million in the quarter on the convertible notes issued before our initial public offering coupled with interest expense on these convertible notes.

Income Tax Expense

We had a net income tax expense of US$3.0 million and US$8.7 million despite a group net loss position in the fourth quarter of 2018 and 2017,respectively. This was primarily due to withholding tax and corporate income tax expenses incurred by our digital entertainment segment,partially offset by deferred tax assets recognized during the period.

We had share of losses of equity investees of US$1.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2018,compared with a loss of US$1.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2017.

As a result of the foregoing,we had net losses of US$276.1 million and US$263.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2018 and 2017,respectively.

Adjusted Net Loss

Among other things,statements that are not historical facts,including statements about Sea's beliefs and expectations,the business,financial and market outlook,and projections from its management in this announcement,as well as Sea's strategic and operational plans,contain forward-looking statements. Sea may also make written or oral forward-looking statements in its periodic reports to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"),in its annual report to shareholders,in press releases,and other written materials,and in oral statements made by its officers,directors,or employees to third parties. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties. A number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement,including but not limited to the following: Sea's goals and strategies; its future business development,financial condition,financial results,and results of operations; the growth in,and market size of,the digital entertainment,e-commerce and digital financial services industries in the region,including segments within those industries; changes in its revenue,costs or expenditures; its ability to continue to source,develop and offer new and attractive online games and to offer other engaging digital entertainment content; the growth of its digital entertainment,e-commerce and digital financial services platforms; the growth in its user base,level of user engagement,and monetization; its ability to continue to develop new technologies and/or upgrade its existing technologies; growth and trends of its markets and competition in its industries; government policies and regulations relating to its industries; and general economic and business conditions in the region.

All information provided in this press release and in the attachments is as of the date of this press release,and Sea undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement,except as required under applicable law.Non-GAAP Financial MeasuresTo supplement our consolidated financial statements,which are prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP,we use the following non-GAAP financial measures to help evaluate our operating performance:"Adjusted revenue" of our digital entertainment segment represents revenue of the digital entertainment segment plus change in digital entertainment deferred revenue. This financial measure is used as an approximation of cash spent by our users in the applicable period that is attributable to our digital entertainment segment. Although other companies may present such measures related to gross billings differently or not at all,we believe that the adjusted revenue of our digital entertainment segment provides useful information to investors about the segment's core operating results,enhancing their understanding of our past performance and future prospects."Adjusted revenue" of our e-commerce segment represents revenue of the e-commerce segment (currently consisting of marketplace revenue and product revenue) plus certain revenues that were net-off against their corresponding sales incentives. This financial measure enables our investors to follow trends in our e-commerce monetization capability over time and is a useful performance measure."Adjusted revenue" of our digital financial services segment represents revenue of the digital financial services segment plus certain revenues that were net-off against their corresponding sales incentives."Total adjusted revenue" represents the sum of the adjusted revenue of our digital entertainment segment,the adjusted revenue of our e-commerce segment,the adjusted revenue of our digital financial services segment,and the revenue of our other services. This financial measure enables our investors to follow trends in our overall group monetization capability over time and is a useful performance measure."Adjusted net loss" represents net loss before share-based compensation and changes in fair value of convertible notes. We believe that the adjusted net loss helps to identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of certain expenses that are included in net loss. The use of adjusted net loss has its limitations in that it does not include all items that impact the net loss or income for the period,and share-based compensation and changes in fair value of convertible notes are significant expenses."Adjusted EBITDA" for our digital entertainment segment represents operating income (loss) before share-based compensation plus (a) depreciation and amortization expenses,and (b) the net effect of changes in deferred revenue and its related cost for our digital entertainment segment. Although other companies may calculate adjusted EBITDA differently or not present it at all,we believe that the segment adjusted EBITDA helps to identify underlying trends in our operating results,enhancing their understanding of the past performance and future prospects."Adjusted EBITDA" for our e-commerce segment,digital financial services segment and other services segment represents operating income (loss) before share-based compensation plus depreciation and amortization expenses. Although other companies may calculate adjusted EBITDA differently or not present it at all,enhancing their understanding of the past performance and future prospects."Total adjusted EBITDA" represents the sum of adjusted EBITDA of all our segments combined,plus unallocated expenses. Although other companies may calculate adjusted EBITDA differently or not present it at all,we believe that the total adjusted EBITDA helps to identify underlying trends in our operating results,enhancing their understanding of the past performance and future prospects.These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. None of the above financial measures should be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to revenue,net loss/income,or any other measure of performance or as an indicator of our operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently,limiting their usefulness as comparative measures to Sea's data. We compensate for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to their nearest U.S. GAAP financial measures,all of which should be considered when evaluating our performance. We encourage you to review our financial information in its entirety and not rely on any single financial measure.The tables below present selected financial information of our reporting segments,the non-GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to GAAP financial measures,and the related reconciliations between the financial measures. Amounts are expressed in thousands of US dollars ("$").
