Huya Technology is entitled to terminate the agreement at any time by providing 30 days’ prior written notice to Guangzhou Huya.
Pursuant to the equity pledge agreement, the nominee shareholders of Guangzhou Huya have pledged all of their equity interests in Guangzhou Huya to Huya Technology to guarantee the performance by Guangzhou Huya and its nominee shareholders’ performance of their respective obligations under the exclusive business cooperation agreement, exclusive purchase option agreement, and powers of attorney. The nominee shareholders shall not transfer or assign the equity interests, the rights and obligations in the equity pledge agreement or create or permit to create any pledges which may have an adverse effect on the rights or benefits of Huya Technology without Huya Technology's written consent. If Guangzhou Huya and/or its nominee shareholders breach their contractual obligations under those agreements, Huya Technology, as pledgee, will be entitled to certain rights, including the right to sell the pledged equity interests.
Pursuant to the irrevocable power of attorney, Huya Technology is authorized by each of the nominee shareholders as its attorney-in-fact to exercise such nominee shareholders’ rights in Guangzhou Huya, including, without limitation, the power to vote on its behalf on all matters of Guangzhou Huya requiring nominee shareholder approval under PRC laws and regulations and the articles of association of Guangzhou Huya and rights to information relating to all business aspects of Guangzhou Huya. The term of this agreement is ten years from the execution date of this agreement and will be automatically extended for one more year indefinitely. Huya Technology has sole discretion to terminate the agreement at any time by providing 30 days’ prior written notice to Guangzhou Huya. Through the aforementioned contractual agreements, Guangzhou Huaduo and Guangzhou Huya are considered VIEs in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) because the Company, through Beijing Huanju Shidai and Huya Technology, respectively, has the ability to:
In addition to the aforementioned contractual agreements, Beijing Huanju Shidai also entered into similar contractual agreements with Beijing Tuda Science and Technology Co., Ltd. ("Beijing Tuda"). Beijing Bilin Changxiang Information Technology Co., Ltd. (“Bilin Changxiang”), a subsidiary of the Company, also entered into similar contractual agreements with Guangzhou Bilin Online Information Technology Co., Ltd. (formerly known as Bejing Bilin Online Information Technology Co., Ltd., "Bilin Online"). Through these contractual agreements, Beijing Tuda and Bilin Online are considered VIEs of the Group. In accordance with the aforementioned agreements, the Company has power to direct activities of the VIEs, and can have assets transferred out of the VIEs. Therefore the Company considers that there is no asset in the VIEs that can be used only to settle obligations of the VIEs, except for registered capital and PRC statutory reserves of the VIEs amounting to RMB3,213,143 as of December 31, 2017. As the VIEs were incorporated as limited liability companies under the PRC Company Law, the creditors do not have recourse to the general credit of the Company for all the liabilities of the VIEs. Currently there is no contractual arrangement that could require the Company to provide additional financial support to the VIEs. As the Company is conducting its PRC internet value-added services business through the VIEs, the Company will, if needed, provide such support on a discretional basis in the future, which could expose the Company to a loss. There is no VIE where the Company has variable interest but is not the primary beneficiary. Please refer to Note 3(a) for the consolidated financial information of the Group’s VIEs as of December 31, 2017. |

| Principal accounting policies |
The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with the U.S. GAAP to reflect the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Group. Significant accounting policies followed by the Group in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are summarized below.
The Group’s consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, its subsidiaries and VIEs for which the Company or its subsidiary is the primary beneficiary. All transactions and balances among the Company, its subsidiaries and VIEs have been eliminated upon consolidation. A subsidiary is an entity in which the Company, directly or indirectly, controls more than one half of the voting powers; or has the power to appoint or remove the majority of the members of the board of directors; or to cast a majority of votes at the meeting of directors; or has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the investee under a statute or agreement among the shareholders or equity holders. A VIE is an entity in which the Company, or its subsidiary, through contractual agreements, bears the risks of, and enjoys the rewards normally associated with ownership of the entity, and therefore the Company or its subsidiary is the primary beneficiary of the entity. In determining whether the Company or its subsidiaries are the primary beneficiary, the Company considered whether it has the power to direct activities that are significant to the VIEs economic performance, and also the Company’s obligation to absorb losses of the VIEs that could potentially be significant to the VIEs or the right to receive benefits from the VIEs that could potentially be significant to the VIEs. Beijing Huanju Shidai, Bilin Changxiang, Huya Technology and ultimately the Company hold all the variable interests of the VIEs and have been determined to be the primary beneficiary of the VIEs. The Company deconsolidates its subsidiaries in accordance with ASC 810 as of the date the Company ceased to have a controlling financial interest in the subsidiaries. The Company accounts for the deconsolidation of its subsidiaries by recognizing a gain or loss in net income/loss attributable to the Company in accordance with ASC 810. This gain or loss is measured at the date the subsidiaries are deconsolidated as the difference between (a) the aggregate of the fair value of any consideration received, the fair value of any retained non-controlling interest in the subsidiaries being deconsolidated, and the carrying amount of any non-controlling interest in the subsidiaries being deconsolidated, including any accumulated other comprehensive income/loss attributable to the non-controlling interest, and (b) the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities of the subsidiaries being deconsolidated.
The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, mezzanine equity and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from such estimates. The Company believes that the user relationship period related to online games revenue, assessment of whether the Group acts as a principal or an agent in different revenue streams, classification of perpetual items versus consumable items under item-based model, the determination of estimated selling prices of multiple element revenue contracts, income taxes, allowances for doubtful accounts, determination of share-based compensation expenses, impairment assessment of goodwill, long-lived assets and intangible assets, tax considerations for earnings retained in the Group’s VIEs, assessment on the probability of performance condition affiliated in equity-classified award under ASC 718 that affect vesting, represent critical accounting policies that reflect more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements. Management bases the estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
The Group uses Renminbi (“RMB”) as its reporting currency. The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries incorporated in the Cayman Islands, British Virgin Islands, and Hong Kong is United States dollar (“US$”), while the functional currency of the other entities and VIEs in the Group is RMB, which is their respective local currency. In the consolidated financial statements, the financial information of the Company and its subsidiaries, which use US$ as their functional currency, have been translated into RMB. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates on the balance sheet date, equity amounts are translated at historical exchange rates, and revenues, expenses, gains, and losses are translated using the average exchange rate for the period. Translation adjustments arising from these are reported as foreign currency translation adjustments and are shown as a component of other comprehensive income or loss in the statement of comprehensive income. Foreign currency transactions denominated in currencies other than functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are remeasured at the applicable rates of exchange in effect at that date. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from remeasurement at year-end are recognized in foreign currency exchange gains/losses, net in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
Translations of amounts from RMB into US$ for the convenience of the reader were calculated at the noon buying rate of US$1.00 = RMB 6.5063 on December 29, 2017 as set forth in the H.10 statistical release of the U.S. Federal Reserve Board. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into US$ at such rate.
Cash includes currency on hand and deposits held by financial institutions that can be added to or withdrawn without limitation. Cash equivalents represent short-term and highly liquid investments placed with banks, which have both of the following characteristics:
Short-term deposits represent time deposits placed with banks with original maturities of less than one year. Interest earned is recorded as interest income in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income during the periods presented.
For investments in financial instruments with a variable interest rate indexed to the performance of underlying assets, the Company elected the fair value method at the date of initial recognition and carried these investments subsequently at fair value. Changes in fair values are reflected in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
Accounts receivable are presented net of allowance for doubtful accounts. The Group uses specific identification in providing for bad debts when facts and circumstances indicate that collection is doubtful and a loss is probable and estimable. If the financial conditions of its customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowance may be required. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts which reflects its best estimate of amounts that potentially will not be collected. The Company determines the allowance for doubtful accounts on an individual basis taking into consideration various factors including but not limited to historical collection experience and credit-worthiness of the debtors as well as the age of the individual receivables balance. Additionally, the Company makes specific bad debt provisions based on any specific knowledge the Company has acquired that might indicate that an account is uncollectible. The facts and circumstances of each account may require the Company to use substantial judgment in assessing its collectability.
The equity investment is comprised of investments in privately-held entities. The Group accounts for its equity investment over which it has significant influence but does not own a majority equity interest or otherwise control using the equity method. The Group adjusts the carrying amount of the investment and recognizes investment income or loss for share of the earnings or loss of the investee after the date of investment. The Group assesses its equity investment for other-than-temporary impairment by considering factors including, but not limited to, current economic and market conditions, operating performance of the entities, including current earnings trends and undiscounted cash flows, and other entity-specific information. The fair value determination, particularly for investment in privately-held entities, requires judgment to determine appropriate estimates and assumptions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could affect the calculation of the fair value of the investment and determination of whether any identified impairment is other-than-temporary.
The cost investment is comprised of investments in privately-held entities. The Group accounts for cost investment which has no readily determinable fair value using the cost method. Under the cost method, the investment is measured initially at cost. The investment carried at cost should recognize income when dividends are received from the distribution of the investee’s earnings. The Group periodically evaluates the carrying value of investments accounted for under the cost method of accounting and any impairment is included in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
The Group classifies its investments in debt and equity securities into one of three categories and accounts for these as follows: (i) debt securities that the Group has the positive intent and the ability to hold to maturity are classified as “held to maturity” and reported at amortized cost; (ii) debt and equity securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as “trading securities” with unrealized holding gains and losses included in earnings; (iii) debt and equity securities not classified as held to maturity or as trading securities are classified as “available-for-sale” and reported at fair value. The Group has designated its investments in redeemable preferred shares of two private companies and common shares of one listed company as available-for-sale securities in accordance with ASC 320 (Note 11). Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and reported as accumulated other comprehensive income/loss, net of tax. Realized gains or losses upon disposal are charged to earnings during the period in which the gains or losses are realized. An impairment loss on the available-for-sale securities is recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income when the decline in value is determined to be other-than-temporary.
Property and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss, if any. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. Residual rate is determined based on the economic value of the property and equipment at the end of the estimated useful lives as a percentage of the original cost.
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. The gain or loss on the disposal of property and equipment is the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the relevant assets and is recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. All direct and indirect costs that are related to the construction of property and equipment and incurred before the assets are ready for their intended use are capitalized as construction in progress. Construction in progress is transferred to specific property and equipment items and depreciation of these assets commences when they are ready for their intended use.
Business combinations are recorded using the purchase method of accounting, and the cost of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the fair values at the date of exchange of the assets given, liabilities incurred, and equity instruments issued as well as the contingent considerations and all contractual contingencies as of the acquisition date. The costs directly attributable to the acquisition are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired or assumed are measured separately at their fair value as of the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any non-controlling interests. The excess of (i) the total of consideration of acquisition, fair value of the non-controlling interests and acquisition date fair value of any previously held equity interest in the subsidiary acquired over (ii) the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the subsidiary acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the consideration of acquisition is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognized directly in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
Intangible assets mainly consist of brand names, operating rights, software, domain names and technology. Identifiable intangible assets are carried at acquisition cost less accumulated amortization and impairment loss, if any. Finite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment if impairment indicators arise. Amortization of finite-lived intangible assets is computed using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, which are as follows:
Land use right is carried at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization of the land use right is made on straight-line basis over 40 years from the date when the Group first obtained the land use right certificate from the local authorities.
For long-lived assets other than investments and goodwill whose impairment policy is discussed elsewhere in the financial statements, the Group evaluates for impairment whenever events or changes (triggering events) indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may no longer be recoverable. The Group assesses the recoverability of the long-lived assets by comparing the carrying value of the long-lived assets to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to receive from use of the assets and their eventual disposition. Such assets are considered to be impaired if the sum of the expected undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the assets. The impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. The Group tests impairment of long-lived assets at the reporting unit level when impairment indicator appeared and recognizes impairment in the event that the carrying value exceeds the fair value of each reporting unit. The impairment charges of intangible assets recorded in general and administrative expenses for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017 were amounting to RMB57,199, RMB3,828 and nil, respectively.
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the amounts assigned to the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed of an acquired business.
Goodwill assessment for impairment is performed on at least an annual basis on October 1 or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. The Group performs a two-step goodwill impairment test. The first step compares the fair values of each reporting unit to its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill is not considered impaired and the second step will not be required. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step compares the implied fair value of the affected reporting unit’s goodwill to the carrying value of that goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined in a manner similar to accounting for a business combination with the allocation of the assessed fair value determined in the first step to the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit. The excess of the fair value of the reporting unit over the amounts assigned to the assets and liabilities is the implied fair value of goodwill. This allocation process is only performed for purposes of evaluating goodwill impairment and does not result in an entry to adjust the value of any assets or liabilities. An impairment loss is recognized for any excess in the carrying value of goodwill over the implied fair value of goodwill. The judgment in estimating the fair value of reporting units includes estimating future cash flows, determining appropriate discount rates and making other assumptions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of the fair value of each reporting unit.
The Group determines the appropriate accounting treatment of its convertible bonds in accordance with the terms in relation to the conversion feature, call and put options, and beneficial conversion feature. After considering the impact of such features, the Group may account for such instrument as a liability in its entirety, or separate the instrument into debt and equity components following the respective guidance described under ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging and ASC 470 Debt. The debt discount, if any, together with related issuance cost are subsequently amortized as interest expense, using the effective interest method, from the issuance date to the earliest conversion date. Interest expenses are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income in the period in which they are incurred.
Mezzanine equity For the Company’s majority-owned subsidiaries and consolidated VIEs, a non-controlling interest is recognized to reflect the portion of their equity which is not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Company. When the non-controlling interest is contingently redeemable upon the occurrence of a conditional event, which is not solely within the control of the Company, the non-controlling interest is classified as mezzanine equity. In accordance with ASC subtopic 480-10, the Group calculated, on an accumulative basis from the acquisition date, (i) the amount of accretion that would increase the balance of non-controlling interests to their estimated redemption value over the period from the date of acquisition to the earliest redemption date of the non-controlling interests and (ii) the amount of net (loss) profit attributable to non-controlling shareholders of certain subsidiaries based on their ownership percentage. The carrying value of the non-controlling interests as mezzanine equity was adjusted by an accumulative amount equal to the higher of (i) and (ii). Each type of increase in carrying amount shall be recorded as charges against retained earnings or, in the absence of retained earnings, by charges against additional paid-in capital. Non-controlling interest Non-controlling interests are recognized to reflect the portion of the equity of majority-owned subsidiaries and VIEs which is not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the controlling shareholder.
The Group generates revenues from live streaming, online games, membership and others. Revenues from live streaming are generated from YY Live platform and Huya platform. Revenues from online games are generated from providing online game platform and access of the games for the game players. Membership subscription program enhanced user privileges when using the Group’s platforms. Other revenues mainly include online education revenue and advertising revenue. Online education services consist of vocational training and language training courses. Online advertising revenues are primarily generated from sales of different forms of advertising on the Group’s platforms. Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, service has been rendered, the price is fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured. The Group has a recharge system for users to purchase the Group's virtual currency. Users can recharge via various online payment platforms provided by third parties. Virtual currency is non-refundable and often consumed soon after it is purchased. Unconsumed virtual currency is recorded as deferred revenue. Virtual currencies used to purchase virtual items are recognized as revenue according to the prescribed revenue recognition policies of virtual items addressed below unless otherwise stated. (i) Live streaming Live streaming mainly consists of YY Live platform and Huya platform. It generates revenue from sales of virtual items in the platforms. Users can access the platforms and view the live streaming content for free. The Group designs, creates and offers various virtual items for sales to users with pre-determined selling price. Sales proceeds are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized as revenue based on the consumption of the virtual items. Virtual items are categorized as consumable and time-based items. Consumable items are consumed upon purchase and use while time-based items could be used for a fixed period of time. Users can purchase and present consumable items to performers to show support for their favorite performers, or purchase time-based virtual items for one or multiple months for a monthly fee, which provide users with recognized status, such as priority speaking rights or special symbols over a period of time. Accordingly, live streaming revenue is recognized immediately when the consumable virtual item is used, or in the case of time-based virtual items, revenue is recognized ratably over the fixed period on a straight-line basis. The Group does not have further obligations to the user after the virtual items are consumed immediately or after the stated period of time for time-based items. Virtual items may be sold individually or bundled into one arrangement. When the Group’s users purchase multiple virtual items bundled within the same arrangement, the Group evaluates such arrangements under ASC 605-25 Multiple-Element Arrangements. The Group identifies individual elements under the arrangement and determines if such elements meet the criteria to be accounted for as separate units of accounting. The Group allocates the arrangement consideration to the separate units of accounting based on their relative selling price. The following hierarchy has been followed when determining the relative selling price for each element: (1) vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”), (2) third party evidence (“TPE”), and (3) best estimate of selling price (“BESP”). Given that the VSOE of the selling price cannot be determined, the Group has adopted a policy to allocate the consideration of the whole arrangement to different virtual item elements based on the TPE of selling price or the BESP for each virtual item element. The Group determines the fair values of elements sold in a bundle based on similar products sold separately on the YY Live platform and Huya platform based on the TPE of the selling price and determines the fair values of elements without similar products sold separately on the YY Live platform and Huya platform based on the BESP. The BESP is generally based on the selling prices of the various elements of a similar nature when they are sold to users on a stand-alone basis. The BESP may also be based on an estimated stand-alone pricing when the element has not previously been sold on a stand-alone basis. (ii) Online games revenue The Group generates revenues from offering virtual items in online games developed by third parties or the Group itself to gaming players. Historically, the majority of online games revenues for the three years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017 were derived from third parties developed games. Users play games through the Group’s platform free of charge and are charged for purchases of virtual items including consumable and perpetual items, which can be utilized in the online games to enhance their game-playing experience. Consumable items represent virtual items that can be consumed by a specific user within a specified period of time. Perpetual items represent virtual items that are accessible to the users’ account over the life of the online games. The Group recognizes revenue when recognition criteria defined under U.S. GAAP are satisfied. For purposes of determining when the service has been provided to the paying player, the Group has determined that an implied obligation exists to the paying player to continue providing access to the games such that the users can utilize the virtual items purchased. Game players need to log on and access the games through the Group’s platform because their game tokens, virtual items, and game history are specific to the Group’s game accounts and non-transferable to other platforms. To purchase in-game virtual items, players can either charge their game accounts by purchasing game tokens or virtual currency from the Group’s platform, which is convertible into game tokens based on a predetermined exchange rate agreed among the Group and the relevant game developers. The proceeds from the sales of the Group’s virtual currency is recorded as “Advances from customers”, representing prepayments received from users in the form of the Group’s virtual currency not yet converted into game specific tokens. Upon the conversion into a game token from the Group’s virtual currency or upon the direct purchase of a game token, whichever is applicable, the proceeds will be shared between the Group and the relevant game developer based on a predetermined contractual ratio. Game tokens are non-refundable and non-exchangeable among different games. The Group’s portion, net of the game developer’s entitled consideration, is recorded as deferred revenue and amortized according to the prescribed revenue recognition policies described below. Users typically do not convert the virtual currency into game tokens or purchase the game tokens unless they plan to purchase in-game virtual items soon. There are two types of third party developed online games:
Under the non-exclusive arrangement, game developers license the games to various platforms and the Group is only one of the platforms. Game developers will receive only revenue shared from the Group pursuant to the mutually agreed sharing percentage. Under the exclusive arrangement, game developers only license the game to the Group as the exclusive licensee. The Group can sub-license the games to other platforms and receive a portion of revenue sharing from sub-licensees. In addition to the revenue shared to the game developers, the Group should also pay an exclusive license fee to the game developers.
Pursuant to contracts signed between the Group and the respective game developers, revenues from the sale or conversion of game tokens for the purchase of in-game virtual items from online games developed by third parties are shared between the Group and the game developers based on a pre-agreed ratio for each game. These revenue-sharing contracts typically last for one to two years. The third party developed games under non-exclusive licensing contracts are maintained and updated by the game developers. The Group views the game developers to be the Group’s customers and considers the Group’s responsibilities under the agreements with the game developers to offer certain standard promotions that include providing access to the platform, announcing the new games to users on the platform, and occasional advertising on the Group’s platforms. The determination of whether to record these revenues using gross or net method is based on an assessment of various factors. The primary factors are whether the Group is acting as the principal in offering services to the game players or as agent in the transaction, and the specific requirement of each contract. The Group determined that for third party developed games, the third party game developers are the principals given the game developers design and develop the online game services offered, have reasonable latitude to establish prices of game tokens, and are responsible for maintaining and upgrading the game contents and virtual items. Accordingly, the Group records online games revenue, net of the pre-agreed portion of sharing of the revenues with the game developers. Given that third party developed games under non-exclusive licensing contracts are managed and administered by the third party game developers, the Group does not have access to the data on the consumption details such as when the game token is spent on the virtual items or the types of virtual items (consumable or perpetual items) purchased by each individual game player. However, the Group maintains historical data on timing of the conversion of its virtual currency into game specific tokens and the amount of purchases of game tokens. The Group believes that its performance for, and obligation to, the game developers correspond to the game developers’ services to the users. The Group has adopted a policy to recognize revenues relating to game tokens for third party developed games over the estimated user relationship period with the Group on a game-by-game basis, which is approximately one to six months for the periods presented. Future usage patterns may differ from historical usage patterns and therefore the estimated user relationship period with the Group may change in the future. When the Group launches a new game, it estimates the user relationship period based on other similar types of games in the market until the new game establishes its own history. The Group considers the game’s profile, attributes, target audience, and its appeal to players of different demographics groups in estimating the user relationship period. The estimated user relationship period is based on data collected from those users who have acquired game tokens. To estimate the user relationship period, the Group maintains a system that captures the following information for each user: (a) the frequency that users log into each game via the Group’s platform, and (b) the amount and the timing of when the users convert or charge his or her game tokens. The Group estimates the user relationship period for a particular game to be the date a player purchases or converts from virtual currency to a game token through the date the Group estimates the user plays the game for the last time. This computation is performed on a user by user basis. Then, the results for all analyzed users are averaged to determine an estimated end user relationship period for each game. Revenues from in-game payments of each month are recognized over the user relationship period estimated for that game. The consideration of user relationship period with each online game is based on the Group’s best estimate that takes into account all known and relevant information at the time of assessment. The Group assesses the estimated user relationship period for each game on a quarterly basis. Any adjustments arising from changes in the user relationship period as a result of new information will be accounted as a change in accounting estimate in accordance with ASC 250 Accounting Changes and Error Corrections.
Under certain exclusive arrangements, the Group pays additional license fees to the game developers as the Group is entitled to an exclusive right to operate third party developed games in specified geographic areas. Based on ASC 350, the Group has adopted an accounting policy to recognize the exclusive license fee as an intangible asset upon the commercial launch of the related online games. This intangible asset is amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the economic life or license period of the relevant online game. Pursuant to the exclusive licensing contracts signed between the Group and the third party game developers, the Group’s responsibilities in operating the licensed games vary for each game. The determination of whether to record these revenues using gross or net method is based on an assessment of various factors, including but not limited to whether the Group (i) is the primary obligor in the arrangement; (ii) has latitude in establishing the selling price; (iii) changes the product or performs part of the service, (iv) has involvement in the determination of product and service specifications. For the game license arrangements under which the Group takes primary responsibilities of game operation, including determining distribution and payment channels, providing customer services, hosting game servers, if needed, and controlling game and services specifications and pricing, the Group considered itself to be the principal in these arrangements. Accordingly, the Group records online games revenues from these third party licensed games on a gross basis. Commission fees paid to distribution channels and payment channels and content fees paid to third party game developers are recorded as cost of revenues. For the game license arrangements under which the Group’s responsibilities are limited to publishing, providing payment solutions and game operating advice, the Group views the game developers to be its customers and considers itself to be the agent in the arrangements. Accordingly, the Group records online games revenues from these third party licensed games, net of fees paid to third parties upon the provision of service. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of certain online game exclusive license agreements entered into between game developers and the Group, the Group, as the exclusive licensee, could sublicense a non-exclusive, non-transferable and limited license to any third party without the prior formal consent of game developers. Under the non-exclusive and non-transferable limited license, the sub-licensee cannot further license the game to other platforms. The Group received monthly revenue-based royalty payments from all sub-licensees. The Group views the third-party sub-licensees operators as its customers and recognizes revenues on a net basis, as the Group does not have the primary responsibility for fulfillment and acceptability of the game services. Similar to other online games, the exclusive third party developed games are free to play and players can pay for virtual items for better in-game experience. For exclusive third party games, the consumption details can be provided by third party developers or the Group has access to such data. Therefore, the Group recognizes revenues based on item-based model: (1) for consumable items, the revenue is recognized immediately upon consumption; (2) for perpetual items, the revenue is recognized ratably over the user relationship period of a specific game as described. The determination of user relationship period is the same as what is described in “Non-exclusive third party developed games” above.
Revenues derived from self-developed games are recorded on a gross basis as the Group acts as a principal to fulfill all obligations. Considering that revenues derived from self-developed games were immaterial to the Group for the years presented, the Group does not maintain information on consumption details of in-game virtual items, and only maintains limited information related to the frequency of log-ons for its self-developed games. Given that certain historical data is not available, the Group uses the user relationship period of third party games with similar popularity, gaming experience and sales to determine the estimated period of user relationship for its self-developed games.
The Group operates a membership subscription program where subscription members can have enhanced user privileges when using YY Client and live streaming channels. The membership fee is collected up-front from subscribers. The receipt of the revenue is initially recorded as deferred revenue and revenue is recognized ratably over the period of the subscription when services are rendered. Unrecognized portion beyond 12 months from balance sheet date is classified as long-term deferred revenue. (iv) Others Other revenues mainly include online education revenues and advertising revenues. (1) Online education revenues Educational programs and services consist of vocational training and language training courses. The course fee is generally paid in advance and is initially recorded as deferred revenue. Revenue for regular courses is recognized proportionately as the classes are attended, and is reported net of scholarships and course fee refunds. Students are entitled to one trial class of the purchased course and course fee is fully refundable if a student decides not to take the remaining course after the trial class. No refund will be provided to a student who withdraws from a course after the trial period, and revenue is recognized for the amount collected. Course fee refunds were insignificant over the period presented. In addition to regular courses, the Company also provides a package of several regular courses to students, which has individual fair value in the market. Pursuant to the applicable accounting guidance, the Company has accounted for these course packages as a multiple-element arrangement because each individual course qualifies as a single unit of accounting, and allocated the course fee from the course package to each individual course in the package based on its relative fair value. The Company recognizes revenue equal to the fair value allocated to individual courses proportionately as the classes are attended. Students are granted a right to retake the courses at a substantial discount in the circumstances where the students fail to achieve certain score targets for some specific courses. The discount arrangement has a stand-alone value and qualifies as a separate unit of accounting under U.S. GAAP. Therefore, the Company has accounted for those courses as a multiple-element arrangement and allocated a portion of the initial course fee to the substantial discount based on a breakage rate. The breakage rate is determined based on our historical data. The amount allocated to the substantial discount is deferred and recognized as revenue upon the expiration of the retaking right, which is generally six months after the end of the initial course term. The Company also sells pre-paid cards primarily to distributors. Pre-paid card sales represent prepaid service fees received from students for online courses. The prepaid service fee is recorded as deferred revenue upon receiving the upfront cash payment. Revenue is recognized on a gross basis based on the selling price of the distributors to the students and is recognized over the period the online course is available to the students, which generally is from the enrolment date to the completion of the relevant professional examination date. (2) Advertising revenues The Group primarily generate advertising revenues from sales of various forms of advertising and provision of promotion campaigns on the live streaming platforms by way of advertisement display or integrated promotion activities in shows and programs on the live streaming platforms. Advertisements on the Group’s platforms are generally charged on the basis of duration, and advertising contracts are signed to establish the fixed price and the advertising services to be provided. Where collectability is reasonably assured, advertising revenues from advertising contracts are recognized ratably over the contract period of display. For the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, net revenue generated from advertising was RMB62,740, RMB41,685 and RMB112,778, respectively. The Group enters into advertising contracts directly with advertisers or third party advertising agencies that represent advertisers. Contract terms generally range from 1 to 3 months. Both third party advertising agencies and direct advertisers are generally billed at the end of the display period and payments are due usually within 3 months. Where customers purchase multiple advertising spaces with different display periods in the same contract, the Group allocates the total consideration to the various advertising elements based on the relative selling price method and recognizes revenue for the different elements over their respective display periods. The following hierarchy should be followed when determining the appropriate selling price for each element: (1) vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”), (2) third party evidence (“TPE”), and (3) best estimate of selling price (“BESP”). Given that the VSOE or TPE of the selling price cannot be determined, the Group has adopted a policy to allocate the fair values of different advertising elements based on the best estimate selling prices of each advertisement within the contract taking into consideration the standard price list and historical discounts granted. The Group recognizes revenue on the elements delivered and defers the recognition of revenue for the fair value of the undelivered elements until the remaining obligations have been satisfied. Where all of the elements within an arrangement are delivered uniformly over the agreement period, the revenues are recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract period. Transactions with third party advertising agencies For contracts entered into with third party advertising agencies, the third party advertising agencies will in turn sell the advertising services to advertisers. Revenue is recognized ratably over the contract period of display based on the following criteria:
The Group provides sales incentives in the forms of discounts and rebates to third party advertising agencies based on purchase volume. As the advertising agencies are viewed as the customers in these transactions, revenue is recognized based on the price charged to the agencies, net of sales incentives provided to the agencies. Sales incentives are estimated and recorded at the time of revenue recognition based on the contracted rebate rates and estimated sales volume based on historical experience. Transactions with advertisers The Group also enters into advertisement contracts directly with advertisers. Similar to transactions with third party advertising agencies, the Group recognizes revenue ratably as the elements are delivered over the contract period of display. The terms and conditions, including price, are fixed according to the contract between the Group and the advertisers. The Group also performs a credit assessment of all advertisers prior to entering into contracts. Revenue is recognized based on the amount charged to the advertisers, net of discounts.
Advances from customers primarily consist of prepayments from users in the form of the Group’s virtual currency that are not yet consumed or converted into game tokens, and upon the consumption or conversion, are recognized as revenue according to the prescribed revenue recognition policies described above. Deferred revenue primarily consists of the unamortized game tokens, prepaid subscriptions under the membership program and unamortized revenue from virtual items in various channels in the Group’s platforms, where there is still an implied obligation to be provided by the Group, which will be recognized as revenue when all of the revenue recognition criteria are met.
Amounts recorded as cost of revenue relate to direct expenses incurred in order to generate revenue. Such costs are recorded as incurred. Cost of revenues consists primarily of (i) revenue sharing fees and content costs, including payments to various channel owners and performers, and content providers, (ii) bandwidth costs, (iii) salary and welfare, (iv) depreciation and amortization expense for servers, other equipment and intangibles directly related to operating the platform, (v) payment handling cost, (vi) Other taxes and surcharges, (vii) share-based compensation, and (viii) other costs. The Group was subject to cultural development fee at a tax rate of 3% on service income from provision of advertising services in the PRC. The Group was also subject to surcharges of VAT, which are calculated based on 12% of the VAT paid for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017. The Group reported other taxes and surcharges, and cultural development fees in cost of revenues. Based on the Group’s corporate structure and the contractual arrangements among the Group’s PRC subsidiaries, the Group’s VIEs and their shareholders, the Group is effectively subject to 6% or 17% VAT and related surcharges on revenues generated by the Group’s subsidiaries based on the Group’s contractual arrangements entered into with the Group’s VIEs.
Research and development expenses consist primarily of (i) salary and welfare for research and development personnel, (ii) share-based compensation for research and development personnel, (iii) depreciation of office premise and servers utilized by research and development personnel and (iv) rental expenses. Costs incurred during the research stage are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred in the development stage, prior to the establishment of technological feasibility, which is when a working model is available, are expensed when incurred. The Company recognizes internal use software development costs in accordance with guidance on intangible assets and internal use software. This requires capitalization of qualifying costs incurred during the software’s application development stage and to expense costs as they are incurred during the preliminary project and post implementation/operation stages. The Company has not capitalized any costs related to internal use software during the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively.
Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of (i) advertising and market promotion expenses, and (ii) salary and welfare for sales and marketing personnel. The advertising and market promotion expenses amounted to approximately RMB253,210, RMB298,681 and RMB621,771 during the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively.
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of (i) share-based compensation for management and administrative personnel, (ii) salary and welfare for general and administrative personnel, and (iii) professional service fees.
Employees of the Group in the PRC are entitled to staff welfare benefits including pension, work-related injury benefits, maternity insurance, medical insurance, unemployment benefit and housing fund plans through a PRC government-mandated multi-employer defined contribution plan. The Group is required to accrue for these benefits based on certain percentages of the employees’ salaries, up to a maximum amount specified by the local government. The Group is required to make contributions to the plans out of the amounts accrued. The PRC government is responsible for the medical benefits and the pension liability to be paid to these employees and the Group’s obligations are limited to the amounts contributed and no legal obligation beyond the contributions made. Employee social security and welfare benefits included as expenses in the accompanying statements of comprehensive income amounted to RMB171,349, RMB206,704 and RMB214,848 for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively.
The Group grants stock-based award, such as, but not limited to, share options, restricted shares, restricted share units of the Company, share option and ordinary shares of the Company’s subsidiary to eligible employees, officers, directors, and non-employee consultants. Awards granted to employees, officers, and directors are initially accounted for as equity-classified awards. The related share-based compensation expenses are measured at the grant date fair value of the award and are recognized using the graded vesting method, net of estimated forfeiture rates, over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant based on historical forfeiture rates and will be revised in the subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Duowan BVI also granted share options, restricted shares and restricted share units to non-employees, which are also initially accounted for as equity-classified awards. Awards granted to non-employees are initially measured at fair value on the grant date and periodically remeasured thereafter until the earlier of the performance commitment date or the date the service is completed and recognized over the period the service is provided. Awards are remeasured at each reporting date using the fair value as at each period end until the measurement date, generally when the services are completed and share-based awards are vested. Changes in fair value between the interim reporting dates are recorded in consistent with the method used in recognizing the original compensation costs. For an award with a performance and/or service condition that affects vesting, the performance and/or service condition is not considered in determining the award’s fair value on the grant date. Performance and service conditions should be considered when the Company is estimating the quantity of awards that will vest. Compensation cost will reflect the number of awards that are expected to vest and will be adjusted to reflect those awards that do ultimately vest. The Group recognizes compensation cost for awards with performance conditions if and when the Group concludes that it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved, net of an estimate of pre-vesting forfeitures over the requisite service period. The Group reassesses the probability of vesting at each reporting period for awards with performance conditions and adjusts compensation cost based on its probability assessment, unless on certain situations, the Group may not be able to determine that it is probable that a performance condition will be satisfied until the event occurs. The Group's share-based awards mainly include share-based awards of YY as well as share options and ordinary shares of Huya, details of which are disclosed in Note 25. Fair value determination of these share-based awards is summarized as below: (1) YY's restricted share units In determining the fair value of restricted share units granted, the fair value of the underlying shares of YY on the grant dates is applied. The grant date fair value of restricted share units is based on stock price of YY in the NASDAQ Global Market. (2) Huya's share options In determining the fair value of share options granted, a binomial option-pricing model is applied. The determination of the fair value is affected by the fair value of the ordinary shares as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables, including risk-free interest rates, exercise multiples, expected forfeiture rates, the expected share price volatility rates, and expected dividends. (3) Huya's ordinary shares In determining the fair value of the ordinary shares of Huya granted, a combination of discounted cash flow method (“DCF”) under income approach and guideline companies method (“GCM”) under market approach is applied, with a discount for lack of marketability, given that the shares underlying the awards were not publicly traded at the time of grant. DCF method of the income approach involves applying appropriate weighted average cost of capital, or WACC, to discount the future cash flows forecast, based on the Group's best estimates as of the valuation date, to present value. The WACC was determined based on a consideration of the factors including risk-free rate, comparative industry risk, equity risk premium, company size and non-systematic risk factors. GCM was also adopted under the market approach to arrive at an equity valuation for Huya. GCM employs trading multiples method of selected public comparable companies including trailing and leading Enterprise Value/Revenue multiples. Based on the Group's current stage of development and the conceptual strength of the income approach, the Group assigned 50% weight to each of the income approach and the market approach for the valuation date.
Other income primarily consists of government grants which represent cash subsidies received from the PRC government by the Group entities. Government grants are originally recorded as deferred revenue when received upfront. After all of the conditions specified in the grants have been met, the grants are recognized as operating income.
Current income taxes are provided on the basis of net income for financial reporting purposes, adjusted for income and expense items which are not assessable or deductible for income tax purposes, in accordance with the regulations of the relevant tax jurisdictions. Deferred income taxes are accounted for using an asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of temporary differences by applying enacted statutory rates applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities. The tax base of an asset or liability is the amount attributed to that asset or liability for tax purpose. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in statement of comprehensive income in the period of change. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the amount of deferred tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that some portion of, or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Uncertain tax positions The guidance on accounting for uncertainties in income taxes prescribes a more likely than not threshold for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Guidance was also provided on derecognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, accounting for income taxes in interim periods, and income tax disclosures. Significant judgment is required in evaluating the Group’s uncertain tax positions and determining its provision for income taxes. The Group recognizes interests and penalties, if any, under accrued expenses and other current liabilities on its balance sheet and under other expenses in its statements of comprehensive income. The Group did not recognize any significant interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017. As of December 31, 2016 and 2017, the Group did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions.
The Group’s subsidiaries and VIEs established in the PRC are required to make appropriations to certain non-distributable reserve funds. In accordance with the laws applicable to China’s Foreign Investment Enterprises, the Group’s subsidiaries registered as wholly-owned foreign enterprises have to make appropriations from its after-tax profit (as determined under the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises as promulgated by the Ministry of Finance of the People’s Republic of China (“PRC GAAP”)) to reserve funds including general reserve fund, and staff bonus and welfare fund. The appropriation to the general reserve fund must be at least 10% of the after-tax profits calculated in accordance with PRC GAAP. Appropriation is not required if the reserve fund has reached 50% of the registered capital of the company. Appropriation to the staff bonus and welfare fund is at the company’s discretion. In addition, in accordance with the Company Laws of the PRC, the VIEs of the Company registered as PRC domestic companies must make appropriations from its after-tax profit as determined under the PRC GAAP to non-distributable reserve funds including a statutory surplus fund and a discretionary surplus fund. The appropriation to the statutory surplus fund must be at least 10% of the after-tax profits as determined under the PRC GAAP. Appropriation is not required if the surplus fund has reached 50% of the registered capital of the company. Appropriation to the discretionary surplus fund is made at the discretion of the company. The use of the general reserve fund, statutory surplus fund and discretionary surplus fund are restricted to the offsetting of losses or increasing capital of the respective company. The staff bonus and welfare fund is a liability in nature and is restricted to fund payments of special bonus to staff and for the collective welfare of employees. All these reserves are not allowed to be transferred to the Company in terms of cash dividends, loans or advances, nor can they be distributed except under liquidation. During the year ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, appropriations to general reserve fund and statutory surplus fund amounted to RMB38, RMB2,350 and RMB3,861, respectively.
Parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Parties are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or significant influence, such as a family member or relative, shareholder, or a related corporation.
Dividends are recognized when declared. No dividends on common shares were declared for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively. The Group does not have any present plan to pay any dividends on common shares in the foreseeable future. The Group currently intends to retain the available funds and any future earnings to operate and expand its business.
Basic income per share is computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period under measurement. Diluted income per share is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and potential common shares. Potential common shares result from the assumed exercise of outstanding share options, restricted shares and restricted share units or other potentially dilutive equity instruments, when they are dilutive under the treasury stock method or the if-converted method.
Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of the Company during a period arising from transactions and other events and circumstances excluding transactions resulting from investments by shareholders and distributions to shareholders. Comprehensive income is reported in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Accumulated other comprehensive income/loss of the Group includes the unrealized gain of available-for-sale securities and the foreign currency translation adjustments.
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise engaging in businesses activities for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Group’s chief operating decision makers (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Group’s chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews consolidated results when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance of the Group.
In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, which simplifies the presentation of deferred income taxes by requiring deferred tax assets and liabilities to be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. The amendments in this update are effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. Additionally, the new guidance may be applied either prospectively to all deferred tax liabilities and assets or retrospectively to all periods presented. The Company has applied this guidance retrospectively to all period presented. Following the adoption of this guidance in 2017, RMB107,309 of current deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2016 was reclassified to non-current assets. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09 (“ASU 2016-09”): Compensation – Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which relates to the accounting for employee share-based payments. This standard addresses several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions, including: (a) income tax consequences; (b) classification of awards as either equity or liabilities; and (c) classification on the statement of cash flows; (d) accounting for forfeitures of share-based payments. This standard has been effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this standard has no material impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements. In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 will eliminate transaction-specific and industry-specific revenue recognition guidance under current U.S. GAAP and replace it with a principle-based approach for determining revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 will require that companies recognize revenues based on the value of transferred goods or services as they occur in the contract. The ASU also will require additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, which defers by one year ASU 2014-09’s effective date. The amendment will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted only for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, which amends the principal-versus-agent implementation guidance and illustrations in the Board’s new revenue standard (ASC 606). The amendments in this update clarify the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. When another party, along with the reporting entity, is involved in providing goods or services to a customer, an entity is required to determine whether the nature of its promise is to provide that good or service to the customer (as a principal) or to arrange for the good or service to be provided to the customer by the other party (as an agent). The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company has set up an implementation team to analyze each of the Group’s revenue streams including revenues from live streaming, online games, membership and other revenue streams in accordance with the new revenue standard to determine the impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company has completed the evaluation and assessment of its adoption of ASC 606 and there are no significant implementation matters yet to be addressed. Based on the Company’s assessment, the adoption of the new revenue standard will not have a material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements. The new revenue standard may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of adoption. The Company will apply the new revenue standard from January 1, 2018 on a modified retrospective basis. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The amendments in this Update make targeted improvements to generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) as follows: 1) Require equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. However, an entity may choose to measure equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. 2) Simplify the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment. When a qualitative assessment indicates that impairment exists, an entity is required to measure the investment at fair value. 3) Eliminate the requirement to disclose the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost for entities that are not public business entities. 4) Eliminate the requirement for public business entities to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet. 5) Require public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes. 6) Require an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments. 7) Require separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset (that is, securities or loans and receivables) on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements. 8) Clarify that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities in combination with the entity’s other deferred tax assets. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company will apply the new standard beginning January 1, 2018 and recognize the changes in fair value for all equity investments measured at fair value through net income (loss). For investments in equity securities lacking of readily determinable fair values, the Company will elect to use the measurement alternative defined as cost, less impairments, adjusted by observable price changes. The Company anticipates that the adoption of ASU 2016-01 will increase the volatility of its other income (expense), net, as a result of the remeasurement of its equity securities upon the occurrence of observable price changes and impairments. Following the adoption of this guidance in 2018, RMB87,802 will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to retained earnings. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02: Leases (Topic 842). The core principle of Topic 842 is that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases. All leases create an asset and a liability for the lessee in accordance with FASB Concepts Statement No. 6, Elements of Financial Statements, and, therefore, recognition of those lease assets and lease liabilities represents an improvement over previous GAAP, which did not require lease assets and lease liabilities to be recognized for most leases. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the standard on its consolidated financial statements. In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13: Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), which requires entities to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This replaces the existing incurred loss model and is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early application will be permitted for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the standard on its consolidated financial statements. In August 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-15: Statement of Cash Flows – Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which clarifies the presentation and classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments in the statement of cash flows. This guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. Based on the Company’s assessment, the adoption of the new standard will not have a material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements. In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, Income Taxes: Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory (Topic 740). This standard will require entities to recognize the income tax consequences of intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory at the time of transfer. This standard requires a modified retrospective approach to adoption. ASU 2016-16 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 31, 2018. The Company does not expect ASU 2016-16 to have a material impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In November 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. The guidance requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim period within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The standard should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. Based on the Company’s assessment, the adoption of the new standard will not have a material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements. In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The standard should be applied prospectively on or after the effective date. Based on the Company’s assessment, the adoption of the new standard will not have a material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements. In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-04: Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The guidance removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation. A goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. The guidance should be adopted on a prospective basis for the annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the standard on its consolidated financial statements. In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, "Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Scope of Modification Accounting", which clarifies and reduces both (1) diversity in practice and (2) cost and complexity when applying the guidance in Topic 718, to a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption is permitted. Based on the Company’s assessment, the adoption of the new standard will not have a material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements. |

| Certain risks and concentration |
Foreign ownership of internet-based businesses is subject to significant restrictions under the current PRC laws and regulations. The PRC government regulates internet access, the distribution of online information and the conduct of online commerce through strict business licensing requirements and other government regulations. These laws and regulations also limit foreign ownership in PRC companies that provide internet information distribution services. Specifically, foreign ownership in an internet information provider or other value-added telecommunication service providers may not exceed 50%. Foreigners or foreign invested enterprises are currently not able to apply for the required licenses for operating online games in the PRC. The Company is incorporated in the Cayman Islands and accordingly, the Company is considered as a foreign invested enterprise under PRC law. As mentioned in Note 1(d), in order to comply with the PRC laws restricting foreign ownership in the online business in China, the Group operates the online business in China through contractual arrangements with its principal VIEs, namely Guangzhou Huaduo and Guangzhou Huya. As of December 31, 2017, Beijing Tuda and Guangzhou Huaduo own the majority equity interests of Guangzhou Huaduo and Guangzhou Huya, respectively. Guangzhou Huaduo and Guangzhou Huya hold the licenses and permits necessary to conduct its internet value-added services and online advertising in the PRC. If the Company had direct ownership of the VIE, it would be able to exercise its rights as a shareholder to effect changes in the board of directors, which in turn could affect changes at the management level, subject to any applicable fiduciary obligations. However, under the current contractual arrangements, it relies on the VIE and its shareholders’ performance of their contractual obligations to exercise effective control. In addition, the Group’s contractual agreements have terms range from 10 to 30 years, which are subject to Beijing Huanju Shidai and Huya Technology’s unilateral termination right. Under the respective service agreements, Beijing Huanju Shidai and Huya Technology will provide services including technology support, technology services, business support and consulting services to Guangzhou Huaduo and Guangzhou Huya, respectively, in exchange for service fees. The amount of service fees payable is determined by various factors, including (a) a percentage of Guangzhou Huaduo and Guangzhou Huya’s revenues or earnings, and (b) the expenses that Beijing Huanju Shidai and Huya Technology incur for providing such services. Beijing Huanju Shidai and Huya Technology may charge up to 100% of the income in Guangzhou Huaduo and Guangzhou Huya and a multiple of the expenses incurred for providing such services, as determined by Beijing Huanju Shidai and Huya Technology, respectively, from time to time. The service fees payable by Guangzhou Huaduo and Guangzhou Huya to Beijing Huanju Shidai and Huya Technology are determined to be up to 100% of the profits of Guangzhou Huaduo and Guangzhou Huya, with the timing of such payment to be determined at the sole discretion of Beijing Huanju Shidai and Huya Technology. If fees were incurred, it would be significant to the Company and the operating companies’ economic performance because it will be incurred and paid at up to 100% of the earnings of the VIE. Fees incurred would be remitted, subject to further PRC restrictions. None of the VIEs or their shareholders are entitled to terminate the contracts prior to the expiration date, unless under remote circumstances such as a material breach of agreement or bankruptcy as it pertains to the service and business operation agreements and their amendment. For the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, Guangzhou Huanju Shidai and Beijing Huanju Shidai determined that service fees of RMB274,285 , RMB305,792 and RMB279,828 were charged to Guangzhou Huaduo. The service fees are typically determined based on the costs and expenses that the wholly owned foreign enterprises incurs for providing relevant technology support to Guangzhou Huaduo, as well as the consideration of Guangzhou Huaduo’s future business development plan and its increasingly growing and diverse operational needs. As of December 31, 2017, Beijing Tuda still has no substantial business operation, and Bilin Online and Guangzhou Huya have accumulated losses since inception. Therefore, no service fees were charged by Beijing Huanju Shidai, Bilin Changxiang and Huya Technology to the Group’s VIEs respectively for the periods presented. Further, the Group believes that the contractual arrangements among Beijing Huanju Shidai, Huya Technology and Bilin Changxiang, the VIEs, and their shareholders are in compliance with PRC law and are legally enforceable. However, the PRC government may issue from time to time new laws or new interpretations on existing laws to regulate this industry. Regulatory risk also encompasses the interpretation by the tax authorities of current tax laws, and the Group’s legal structure and scope of operations in the PRC, which could be subject to further restrictions resulting in limitations on the Company’s ability to conduct business in the PRC. The PRC government may also require the Group to restructure the Group’s operations entirely if it finds that its contractual arrangements do not comply with applicable laws and regulations. Furthermore, it could revoke the Group’s business and operating licenses, require it to discontinue or restrict its operations, restrict its right to collect revenues, block its website, require it to restructure its operations, impose additional conditions or requirements with which the Group may not be able to comply, or take other regulatory or enforcement actions against the Group that could be harmful to its business. The imposition of any of these penalties may result in a material and adverse effect on the Group’s ability to conduct the Group’s business. In addition, if the imposition of any of these penalties caused the Group to lose the rights to direct the activities of the VIEs or the right to receive their economic benefits, the Group would no longer be able to consolidate the VIEs. The Group does not believe that any penalties imposed or actions taken by the PRC government would result in the liquidation of the Company, Beijing Huanju Shidai, Huya Technology and Bilin Changxiang, and the VIEs. On January 19, 2015, the Ministry of Commerce of the PRC, or (the “MOFCOM”) released on its Website for public comment a proposed PRC law (the “Draft FIE Law”) that appears to include VIEs within the scope of entities that could be considered to be foreign invested enterprises (or “FIEs”) that would be subject to restrictions under existing PRC law on foreign investment in certain categories of industry. Specifically, the Draft FIE Law introduces the concept of “actual control” for determining whether an entity is considered to be an FIE. In addition to control through direct or indirect ownership or equity, the Draft FIE Law includes control through contractual arrangements within the definition of “actual control”. If the Draft FIE Law is passed by the People’s Congress of the PRC and goes into effect in its current form, these provisions regarding control through contractual arrangements could be construed to reach the Group’s VIE arrangements, and as a result, the Group’s VIEs could become explicitly subject to the current restrictions on foreign investment in certain categories of industry. The Draft FIE Law includes provisions that would exempt from the definition of foreign invested enterprise entities where the ultimate controlling shareholders are either entities organized under PRC law or individuals who are PRC citizens. The Draft FIE Law does not make clear how “control” would be determined for such purpose, and is silent as to what type of enforcement action might be taken against existing VIEs that operate in restricted industries and are not controlled by entities organized under PRC law or individuals who are PRC citizens. If a finding were made by PRC authorities, under existing laws and regulations or under the Draft FIE Law if it becomes effective, that the Group’s operation of certain of its businesses through VIEs violates the Draft FIE Law, regulatory authorities with jurisdiction over the licensing and operation of such operations and businesses may require the Group to take various actions as discussed in the paragraph above. The Group’s management considers the possibility of such a finding by PRC regulatory authorities under the Draft FIE Law, if it becomes effective, to be remote. The following consolidated financial information of the Group’s VIEs excluding the intercompany items with the Group’s subsidiaries was included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended:
The revenues and expenses of the Group’s entities in the PRC are generally denominated in RMB and their assets and liabilities are denominated in RMB. The Group’s financing activities are denominated in U.S. dollars. The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. Remittances of foreign currencies into the PRC or remittances of RMB out of the PRC as well as exchange between RMB and foreign currencies require approval by foreign exchange administrative authorities and certain supporting documentation. The State Administration for Foreign Exchange, under the authority of the People’s Bank of China, controls the conversion of RMB into other currencies.
No individual customer accounted for more than 10% of net revenues for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017.
The Group collects accounts receivable from payment platforms, external game platforms and advertising customers. There were 2 and 3 payment platforms which had receivable balance exceeding l0% of the total accounts receivable balance of the Group as of December 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively. Details are as follows:
As of December 31, 2016 and 2017, substantially all of the Group’s cash and cash equivalents, short-term deposits and short-term investments were placed with the PRC and international financial institutions. Management chooses these institutions because of their reputations and track records for stability, and their known large cash reserves, and management periodically reviews these institutions’ reputations, track records, and reported reserves. Management expects that any additional institutions that the Group uses for its cash and bank deposits will be chosen with similar criteria for soundness. Nevertheless under the PRC law, it is required that a commercial bank in the PRC that holds third party cash deposits should maintain a certain percentage of total customer deposits taken in a statutory reserve fund for protecting the depositors’ rights over their interests in deposited money. PRC banks are subject to a series of risk control regulatory standards; PRC bank regulatory authorities are empowered to take over the operation and management of any PRC bank that faces a material credit crisis. The Group believes that it is not exposed to unusual risks as these financial institutions are either PRC banks or international banks with high credit quality. The Group had not experienced any losses on its deposits of cash and cash equivalents and term deposits during the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017 and believes that its credit risk to be minimal. |

On March 18, 2014, the Company issued Convertible Senior Notes due 2019 with principal amount of US$400 million (the “Notes”). The Notes bear interest at a rate of 2.25% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning on October 1, 2014. The Notes will mature on April 1, 2019. The value of the Notes is initially measured by the cash received and is subsequently stated at amortized cost. The Notes are not redeemable prior to the maturity date of April 1, 2019, except that the holders of the Notes (the “Holders”) have a noncontingent option to require the Company to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their Notes on April 1, 2017. The repurchase price will equal 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the repurchase date. US$399 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes were redeemed on April 1, 2017. Following the repurchase, US$1 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes remains outstanding and will be due in 2019. As of December 31, 2016 and 2017, RMB2.8 billion (US$399 million) and RMB 6.5 million (US$1.0 million) has been accounted for as the value of the Notes in current liabilities and non-current liabilities respectively. Interest expense recognized during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2017 was RMB81,085 and RMB20,820. |

| Income tax |
(i) Cayman Islands (“Cayman”) Under the current tax laws of Cayman Islands, the Company and its subsidiaries are not subject to tax on income or capital gains. Besides, upon payment of dividends by the Company to its shareholders, no Cayman Islands withholding tax will be imposed. (ii) BVI Duowan BVI is exempted from income tax on its foreign-derived income in the BVI. There are no withholding taxes in the BVI. (iii) Hong Kong profits tax Under the current Hong Kong Inland Revenue Ordinance, the subsidiaries of the Group in Hong Kong are subject to 16.5% Hong Kong profit tax on its taxable income generated from operations in Hong Kong. Additionally, payments of dividends by the subsidiary incorporated in Hong Kong to the Company are not subject to any Hong Kong withholding tax. (iv) PRC Enterprise Income Tax (“EIT”) The Company’s subsidiaries and VIEs in China are governed by the Enterprise Income Tax Law (“EIT Law”), which became effective on January 1, 2008. Pursuant to the EIT Law and its implementation rules, enterprises in China are generally subject to tax at a statutory rate of 25%. Certified High and New Technology Enterprises (“HNTE”) are entitled to a favorable statutory tax rate of 15%, but need to re-apply every three years. During this three year period, an HNTE must conduct a qualification self-review each year to ensure it meets the HNTE criteria and is eligible for the 15% preferential tax rate for that year. If an HNTE fails to meet the criteria for qualification as an HNTE in any year, the enterprise cannot enjoy the 15% preferential tax rate in that year, and must instead use the regular 25% EIT rate. Enterprises qualified as software enterprises can enjoy an income tax exemption for two years beginning with their first profitable year and a 50% tax reduction to the applicable tax rate for the subsequent three years. An entity that qualifies as a “Key National Software Enterprise” (a “KNSE”) is entitled to a further reduced preferential income tax rate of 10%. Enterprises wishing to enjoy the status of a Software Enterprise or a KNSE must perform a self-assessment each year to ensure they meet the criteria for qualification and file required supporting documents with the tax authorities before using the preferential EIT rates. These enterprises will be subject to the tax authorities’ assessment each year as to whether they are entitled to use the relevant preferential EIT treatments. If at any time during the preferential tax treatment years an enterprise uses the preferential EIT rates but the relevant authorities determine that it fails to meet applicable criteria for qualification, the relevant authorities may revoke the enterprise’s Software Enterprise/KNSE status. The EIT Law also provides that an enterprise established under the laws of a foreign country or region but whose “de facto management body” is located in the PRC be treated as a resident enterprise for PRC tax purposes and consequently be subject to the PRC income tax at the rate of 25% for its global income. The Implementing Rules of the EIT Law merely define the location of the “de facto management body” as “the place where the exercising, in substance, of the overall management and control of the production and business operation, personnel, accounting, properties, etc., of a non-PRC company is located.” Based on a review of surrounding facts and circumstances, the Group does not believe that it is likely that its entities registered outside of the PRC should be considered as resident enterprises for the PRC tax purposes. The Group’s PRC entities provided for enterprise income tax are as follows:
According to a policy promulgated by the State Tax Bureau of the PRC and effective from 2008 onwards, enterprises engaged in research and development activities are entitled to claim 150% of the research and development expenses so incurred in a year as tax deductible expenses in determining its tax assessable profits for that year (“Super Deduction”). Certain subsidiaries and VIEs of the Group successfully claimed the Super Deduction in ascertaining the tax assessable profits for the periods reported. The EIT Law also imposes a withholding income tax of 10% on dividends distributed by a FIE to its immediate holding company outside of China, if such immediate holding company is considered as a non-resident enterprise without any establishment or place within China or if the received dividends have no connection with the establishment or place of such immediate holding company within China, unless such immediate holding company’s jurisdiction of incorporation has a tax treaty with China that provides for a different withholding arrangement. The Cayman Islands, where the Company incorporated, does not have such tax treaty with China. According to the arrangement between the mainland China and Hong Kong Special Administrative Region on the Avoidance of Double Taxation and Prevention of Fiscal Evasion in August 2006, dividends paid by an FIE in China to its immediate holding company in Hong Kong will be subject to withholding tax at a rate of no more than 5% (if the foreign investor owns directly at least 25% of the shares of the FIE). In accordance with accounting guidance, all undistributed earnings are presumed to be transferred to the parent company and are subject to the withholding taxes. All FIEs are subject to the withholding tax from January 1, 2008. The presumption may be overcome if the Group has sufficient evidence to demonstrate that the undistributed dividends will be re-invested and the remittance of the dividends will be postponed indefinitely. Aggregate undistributed earnings and reserves of the Group entities located in the PRC that are available for distribution to the Company as of December 31, 2016 and 2017 are approximately RMB4,784,432 and RMB7,605,499, respectively. In 2017, the Group determined to cause one of its PRC subsidiaries, Guangzhou Huanju Shidai, to declare and distribute a cash dividend of part of its stand-alone 2014-2016 earnings, amounted to US$15,000, to its direct oversea parent company, Duowan BVI. So Guangzhou Huanju Shidai paid for the withholding tax in the amount of US$1,500 in 2017. The Group has a plan to indefinitely reinvest its funds and any future earnings for use in the operation and expansion of its business. Accordingly, no deferred tax liability on 10% WHT of aggregate undistributed earnings and reserves of the Company’s subsidiaries located in the PRC has been accrued that would be payable upon the distribution of those amounts to the Company as of December 31, 2016 and 2017. Composition of income tax expense The current and deferred portions of income tax expense included in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income are as follows:
Reconciliation of the differences between statutory tax rate and the effective tax rate The reconciliation of total tax expense computed by applying the respective statutory income tax rate to pre-tax income is as follows:
(i) Permanent differences mainly arise from expenses not deductible for tax purposes including primarily share-based compensation costs and expenses incurred by subsidiaries and VIEs. Deferred tax assets and liabilities Deferred taxes are measured using the enacted tax rates for the periods in which they are expected to be reversed. The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to the deferred tax asset balances as of December 31, 2016 and 2017 are as follows:
Tax loss carry forwards As of December 31, 2017, the Group had tax loss carry forwards of approximately RMB301,227, which can be carried forward to offset future taxable income. The net operating tax loss carry forwards will begin to expire as follows:
In accordance with PRC Tax Administration Law on the Levying and Collection of Taxes, the PRC tax authorities generally have up to five years to claw back underpaid tax plus penalties and interest for PRC entities’ tax filings. In the case of tax evasion, which is not clearly defined in the law, there is no limitation on the tax years open for investigation. There were no ongoing examinations by tax authorities as of December 31, 2017. |

On May 16, 2017, Huya entered into a Series A Preferred Shares subscription agreement with the Series A investors and pursuant to which, Huya issued 22,058,823 shares of series A preferred shares of Huya (“Series A Preferred Shares”) at a price of US$3.4 per share with total cash consideration of US$75,000 (equivalent to RMB509,730 as of the issuance date). The issuance of the Series A Preferred Shares was completed on July 10, 2017. The key terms of the Series A Preferred Shares are summarized as follows: Dividends rights Holders of the Series A Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive preferential dividends, payable out of funds or assets when and as such funds or assets become legally available therefor on parity with each other, when, as, and if declared by the Board of Directors of Huya, at a non-cumulative rate of at least 8% per annum, prior and in preference to the holders of any other class or series of shares, additionally, the holders of Series A Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive dividends at the rate no less than the rate for the holders of any other class or series of shares of Huya (calculated on an as converted basis). Conversion feature Each Series A Preferred Share shall be convertible at the option of the holder thereof, at any time after the Series A issue date into such number of fully paid and non-assessable ordinary share as determined by dividing the Series A issue price by the then-effective applicable Series A conversion price. Upon the closing of a qualified IPO of Huya, each Series A Preferred Share shall automatically be converted into fully-paid and non-assessable ordinary shares of Huya based on the then-effective Series A conversion price. The “Series A conversion price” as of the date of issuance of the Series A Preferred Shares shall initially be the Series A issue price, resulting in an initial conversion ratio for the Series A Preferred Shares of 1:1, and thereafter shall be subject to adjustment and readjustment from time to time as hereinafter provided, being no less than the par value. Adjustments of conversion ratios include the following: adjustment for share splits and combinations, adjustment for ordinary share dividends and distributions, adjustments for other dividends, adjustments for reorganizations, mergers, consolidations, reclassifications, exchanges, substitutions and adjustments to Series A conversion price for dilutive issuance (dilutive issuance means the event of an issuance of new securities, at any time after the issuance date of the Series A Preferred Shares, for a consideration per ordinary share received by Huya (net of any selling concessions, discounts or commissions) less than conversion price of the Series A Preferred Shares in effect immediately prior to such issue. Redemption feature At any time and from time to time after the fourth (4th) anniversary of the date of issuance of the Series A Preferred Shares (the “Redemption Date”), upon written notice of the holders of fifty percent (50%) or more of the then issued and outstanding Series A Preferred Shares, Huya shall redeem all or a portion of the Series A Preferred Shares held by such holders at the Series A Redemption Price (as defined below), provided that (a) a qualified IPO, (b) the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Huya and (c) a deemed liquidation event has not been consummated by Huya by the Redemption Date. The “Series A Redemption Price” for each Series A Preferred Share redeemed shall be 100% of the Series A issue price plus accrued daily interest (on the basis of a 365-day year basis) at a rate of eight percent (8%) per annum and any declared but unpaid dividends on such Series A Preferred Share. If Huya’s assets or funds legally available for any redemption of Series A Preferred Shares shall be insufficient to permit the payment of the applicable Series A Redemption Price in full in respect of each redeeming Series A Preferred Share, with respect to any remaining Series A Preferred Shares to be redeemed, each of the redeeming holders of the Series A Preferred Shares may choose to request Huya to (and Huya upon such request shall) execute and deliver to such redeeming holder a convertible promissory note (the “Convertible Note”) for the full amount of the redemption payment due but not paid to such holder; provided, that such Convertible Note shall be due and payable no later than twelve months of the redemption closing date, the full amount due under such Convertible Note shall accrue interest daily (on the basis of a 365-day year) at a rate of eight percent (8%) per annum. Voting rights The holder of a Series A Preferred Share shall be entitled to such number of votes as equals the whole number of ordinary shares into which such holder’s collective Series A Preferred Shares are convertible immediately. Liquidation preferences In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Huya, whether voluntary or involuntary, all assets and funds of Huya legally available for distribution to the members (after satisfaction of all creditors’ claims and claims that may be preferred by Law) shall be distributed to the members of Huya as follows: (1) First, the holders of the Series A Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive for each Series A Preferred Share held by such holder, on parity with each other and prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets or funds of Huya to the holders of any other class or series of shares by reason of their ownership of such shares, an amount equal to the sum of (i) 100% of the Series A issue price, and (ii) any and all accrued or declared but unpaid dividends on such Series A Preferred Shares (collectively, the “Series A Preference Amount”). If the assets and funds thus distributed among the holders of the Series A Preferred Shares shall be insufficient to permit the payment to such holders of the full Series A Preference Amount, then the entire assets and funds of Huya legally available for distribution shall be distributed ratably among the holders of the Series A Preferred Shares in proportion to the aggregate Series A Preference Amount each such holder is otherwise entitled to receive pursuant to this subparagraph (1). (2) If there are any assets or funds remaining after the Series A Preference Amount has been distributed or paid in full to the applicable Series A preferred shareholders pursuant to subparagraph (1) above, the remaining assets and funds of Huya available for distribution to the members shall be distributed ratably among all members according to the relative number of ordinary shares held by such member (treating for this subparagraph (2) all Series A Preferred Shares as if they had been converted to ordinary shares immediately prior to such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Huya). Accounting of Series A Preferred Shares Huya classified the Series A Preferred Shares as mezzanine equity in the consolidated balance sheets because they were redeemable at the holders’ option any time after a certain date and were contingently redeemable upon the occurrence of certain liquidation events outside of Huya’s control. The Preferred Shares are recorded initially at fair value, net of issuance costs. As holders of the Series A Preferred Shares who exercise the redemption rights are allowed to request Huya to issue a convertible note if Huya’s assets or funds legally available for redemption are insufficient, the host contract is considered to be a debt host. The Group determined that there were no embedded derivatives requiring bifurcation from the host contract. The redemption feature is considered clearly and closely related to the host contract. While the conversion feature is not clearly and closely related to the host contract, no bifurcation is required as the conversion feature does not meet the definition of a derivative because the terms of the contracts do not require or explicitly state that it permits net settlement for the conversion feature. Huya recognized accretion to the respective redemption value of the Series A Preferred Shares over the period starting from issuance date to the earliest redemption date. Huya recognized accretion of the Series A Preferred Shares amounted to US$3,000 (equivalent to RMB19,842) for the year ended December 31, 2017. The accretion to the redemption value of the Series A Preferred Shares would also be US$3,000 (equivalent to RMB19,842) and the balance of redemption value of the Series A Preferred Shares would be US$78,000 (equivalent to RMB 509,668) as if they were redeemable at December 31, 2017. Huya’s redeemable convertible preferred shares activities for the year ended December 31, 2017 are summarized below:
Huya has used the discounted cash flow method to determine the underlying share value of Huya and adopted equity allocation model to determine the fair value of the Series A Preferred Shares as of the dates of issuance. Key valuation assumptions used to determine the fair value of Series A Preferred Shares are as follows:

Pre-2009 Scheme Options Grant of options Before the adoption of the Employee Equity Incentive Scheme (the “2009 Incentive Scheme”), 12,705,700 and 8,499,050 share options were granted to employees through individually signed share option agreements, to acquire common shares of Duowan BVI on a one-to-one basis on January 1, 2008 and 2009 respectively. In addition, on January 1, 2008, 3,832,290 share options were granted to one non-employee for the provision of consulting services to the Group (collectively defined as “Pre-2009 Scheme Options”). Vesting of options These Pre-2009 Scheme Options will vest over a four years’ service period, with 25% of the options vesting after the first anniversary of the vesting inception date and the remaining 75% in six equal installments over the following 36 months. The options may be exercised provided that both the service conditions and a performance condition are met. The performance condition is defined to be i) an initial public offering, ii) completion of a financing meeting certain criteria, iii) an internal reorganization, or iv) a voluntary winding up of Duowan BVI. The performance condition that is tied to completion of a financing fulfilling certain criteria was met in June 2008 or November 2009. The following table summarizes the activities of the Pre-2009 Scheme Options for employees and non-employee for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017:
Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant. If necessary, forfeitures are revised in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the difference between the Company’s common shares as of December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017 and the exercise price. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the year ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017 amounted to RMB122,956, RMB3,270 and RMB9,415, respectively. Since all the share options have been vested, no share-based compensation expense related to share options were incurred for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017.
On September 16, 2011, the board of directors of the Company approved the 2011 Share Incentive Scheme. In October 2012, the board of directors of the Company resolved that the maximum aggregate number of Class A common shares which may be issued pursuant to all awards under the 2011 Share Incentive Scheme shall be 43,000,000 plus an annual increase of 20,000,000 on the first day of each fiscal year, or such lesser amount of Class A common shares as determined by the board of directors of the Company. During the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, the Company granted restricted share units to employees of 16,012,644, 1,530,008 and 22,090,030 respectively pursuant to the 2011 Share Incentive Plan. During the years ended December 31, 2017, the Company granted restricted share units to non-employees of 150,000 pursuant to the 2011 Share Incentive Plan. The following table summarizes the restricted share units activity for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017:
For the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, the Company recorded share-based compensation of RMB152,205, RMB143,350 and RMB211,189, using the graded-vesting attribution method. As of December 31, 2017, total unrecognized compensation expense relating to the restricted share units was RMB505,073. The expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.12 years using the graded-vesting attribution method.
Grant of options On July 10, 2017, the Board of Directors of Huya approved the establishment of Huya 2017 Share Incentive Plan, the purpose of which is to provide an incentive for employees contributing to Huya. The Huya 2017 Share Incentive Plan shall be valid and effective for 10 years from the grant date. The maximum number of shares that may be issued pursuant to all awards (including incentive share options) under Huya 2017 Share Incentive Plan shall be 17,647,058 shares. For the year ended December 31, 2017, Huya granted 11,737,705 share options to employees pursuant to the Huya 2017 Share Incentive Plan. Vesting of options There are two types of vesting schedule under the Huya 2017 Share Incentive Plan, which are: i) 50% of the options will be vested after 24 months of the grant date and the remaining 50% will be vested in two equal installments over the following 24 months, and ii) options will be vested in four equal installments over the following 48 months. These options shall (i) be exercisable during its term cumulatively according to the vesting schedule set out in the grant notice and with the applicable provisions of Huya 2017 Share Incentive Plan, provided that the performance conditions otherwise agreed by the parties (if any) to which the option is subject have been fulfilled upon each corresponding vesting date; (ii) be deemed vested and exercisable immediately in the event of a change of control, regardless of the vesting schedule; (iii) be exercisable upon any arrangement as otherwise agreed by the parties based on their discussion in good faith. Movements in the number of share options granted to Huya’s employees and their related weighted average exercise prices are as follows:
Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant. If necessary, forfeitures are revised in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Huya has used binomial option-pricing model to determine the fair value of the share options as of the grant dates. Key assumptions are set as below:
For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded share-based compensation of RMB19,473, using the graded-vesting attribution method. As of December 31, 2017, there was RMB77,660 unrecognized share-based compensation expense relating to Huya 2017 Share Incentive Plan granted to employees. The expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average remaining vesting period of 1.25 years using the graded-vesting attribution method.

| Basic and diluted net income per share |
Basic and diluted net income per share for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017 are calculated as follows:
(1) The weighted average number of common shares outstanding which could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future related to the 2019 Convertible Senior Notes was 72,267,200 and 18,202,301 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2017 respectively. The 2019 Convertible Senior Notes were included in the computation of diluted earnings per share in 2017 and 2016 because the inclusion of such instrument would be dilutive, while it was excluded in 2015 because the inclusion of such instrument would be anti-dilutive. |

| Fair value measurements |
Fair value reflects the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Group considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the assets or liabilities. The Group applies a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. This guidance specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques, which is based on whether the inputs into the valuation technique are observable or unobservable. The hierarchy is as follows: Level 1—Valuation techniques in which all significant inputs are unadjusted quoted prices from active markets for assets or liabilities that are identical to the assets or liabilities being measured. Level 2—Valuation techniques in which significant inputs include quoted prices from active markets for assets or liabilities that are similar to the assets or liabilities being measured and/or quoted prices for assets or liabilities that are identical or similar to the assets or liabilities being measured from markets that are not active. Also, model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets are Level 2 valuation techniques. Level 3—Valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. Unobservable inputs are valuation technique inputs that reflect the Group’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The fair value guidance describes three main approaches to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities: (1) market approach; (2) income approach and (3) cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated from market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present value amount. The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. The cost approach is based on the amount that would currently be required to replace an asset. When available, the Group uses quoted market prices to determine the fair value of an asset or liability. If quoted market prices are not available, the Group will measure fair value using valuation techniques that use, when possible, current market-based or independently sourced market parameters, such as interest rates and currency rates. The Group did not have any other financial instruments that were required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2017 except for three available-for-sale investments and short-term investments. The following table summarizes the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are categorized using the fair value hierarchy as of December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2017:
Short-term investments represented the investments issued by commercial banks with a variable interest rate indexed to the performance of underlying assets within one year. For the instruments whose fair value is provided by banks at the end of each period, the Company classifies the valuation techniques that use these inputs as Level 1 of fair value measurements. For the instruments whose fair value is estimated based on quoted prices of similar products provided by banks at the end of each period, the Company classifies the valuation techniques that use these inputs as Level 2 of fair value measurements. The available-for-sale securities classified as Level 1 of fair value measurements is reported at fair value using a market approach based on its stock price. As of December 31, 2017, the accumulated unrealized income representing a change in fair value of RMB87,802 was recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the consolidated balance sheets. The available-for-sale securities classified in Level 3 represented investment in the redeemable preferred shares of a private company. The roll forward of Level 3 investments are as following:
Apart from the short-term investments and available-for-sale securities, the Company’s other financial instruments consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, short-term deposits, restricted short-term deposits, accounts receivable, other receivables, amounts due to/from related parties, accounts payable, certain accrued expenses and convertible bonds. The recorded values of cash and cash equivalents, short-term deposits, restricted short-term deposits, accounts receivable, other receivables, amounts due to/from related parties, accounts payable, certain accrued expenses and convertible bonds are recorded at cost which approximates fair value. The fair value of convertible bonds is within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. |

| Subsequent events |
(a) In April 2018, Huya has filed a draft registration statement on Form F-1 to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for a proposed IPO (“Proposed IPO”) of ADSs representing ordinary shares of Huya. The number of ADSs proposed to be offered and sold and the dollar amount proposed to be raised in the Proposed IPO have not yet been determined. The Proposed IPO is expected to commence after the SEC completes its review process, subject to market and other conditions. However, there can be no assurances as to the timing or completion of the Proposed IPO. (b) On March 8, 2018, Huya issued 64,488,235 shares of Series B-2 redeemable convertible preferred shares (“Series B-2 Preferred Shares”) at a price of US$7.16 per share for cash consideration of US$461.6 million to Linen Investment Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Tencent Holdings Limited (“Tencent”), representing an equity interest of 34.6% of Huya on an as-converted basis (the “Transaction”). The holders of the Series B-2 Preferred Shares are entitled to participate in any dividend pari passu with ordinary shareholders of Huya on an as-converted basis. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Huya, the holders of the Series B-2 Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive an amount equal to the higher of (a) the sum of (i) 100% of the Series B-2 issue price, and (ii) any and all accrued or declared but unpaid dividends on such Series B-2 Preferred Shares or (b) the pro-rata share of the distributions of Huya available to all holders of ordinary shares on an as-converted basis. Upon the closing of the Transaction, the terms of liquidation preference for the holders of the Series A Preferred Shares were changed as the same with those of the holders of the Series B-2 Preferred Shares, which is after the distribution or payment in full of the payment to the holders of the Series B-2 Preferred Shares discussed above. Each Series B-2 Preferred Share is convertible at the option of the holder, at any time after the issuance of such shares, and each share can be converted into one Class B ordinary share of Huya. In addition, each Series B-2 Preferred Share would automatically be converted into a Class B ordinary share of Huya upon the closing of a qualified IPO. Upon the occurrence of a redemption event and upon written notice of the holders of 50% or more of the then issued and outstanding Series B-2 Preferred Shares, Huya shall redeem all or a portion of the Series B-2 Preferred Shares held by such holders at a price equal to the Series B-2 issue price plus accrued daily interest at a rate of 8% per annum and any declared but unpaid dividends on such Series B-2 Preferred Shares. If Huya’s assets or funds legally available for redemption are insufficient, the holders of the Series B-2 Preferred Shares who exercise the redemption rights are allowed to request Huya to issue a convertible note for the full amount of the redemption payment due but not paid to the holders. In addition, Huya also granted a right to Tencent to enable it to purchase additional equity shares and increase its voting interest in Huya to reach 50.10% on an as-converted and fully diluted basis. The additional equity shares will be settled by the Company’s equity shares in Huya or equity shares newly issued by Huya if the Company decides not to sell its shares. Tencent has the exclusive right to exercise the right, at any time, commencing on the second anniversary of the closing of the Transaction and ending on the third anniversary of the closing. The exercise price of the right was equal to the higher of (i) the price per ordinary share based on Huya’s post-money valuation upon the closing of the Transaction, and (ii) either (1) a per ordinary share issue price for the most recent qualified financing of Huya, if Huya has not then completed a qualified IPO at the time of Tencent’s exercise of such purchase right, or (2) the average of closing trading prices in the last 20 trading days prior to Huya’s and the Company’s receipt of Tencent’s written notice to exercise such purchase right, if Huya is then a public company. Concurrent with the Transaction, Huya adopted a dual voting structure on its shares. Huya’s ordinary shares were divided into Class A and Class B ordinary shares, while Huya’s preferred shares were divided into Series A-1, Series A-2, Series B-1 and Series B-2 preferred shares. Holders of Class A ordinary shares, Series A-1 and Series B-1 preferred shares (“Low Vote Shares”) are entitled to one vote per share in all shareholders’ meetings, while holders of Class B ordinary shares, Series A-2 and Series B-2 preferred shares (“High Vote Shares”) are entitled to ten votes per share. Each Class B ordinary share is convertible into one Class A ordinary share at any time at the discretion of the Class B shareholders thereof, while Class A ordinary shares are not convertible into Class B ordinary shares under any circumstances. Each Series A-2 and Series B-2 preferred share is convertible into one Class B ordinary share of Huya, while Series A-1 and Series B-1 preferred shares are only convertible into Class A ordinary shares and shall not be convertible into Class B ordinary shares. Prior to the consummation of a qualified IPO, in the event of any direct or indirect sale or transfer of any High Vote Shares to a party other than any of holders of High Vote Shares, such High Vote Shares, which are Class B ordinary shares, Series A-2 preferred shares or Series B-2 preferred shares, shall convert into an equal number of Low Vote Shares, which are Class A ordinary shares, Series A-1 preferred shares or Series B-1 preferred shares. Upon the closing of a qualified IPO, each Series A-2 and Series B-2 preferred share would automatically be converted into a Class B ordinary share, while each Series A-1 and Series B-1 preferred share would automatically be converted into a Class A ordinary share. After a qualified IPO, upon any sale, transfer, assignment or disposition of any Class B ordinary share by a shareholder to any person who is not an affiliate of such shareholder, or upon a change of ultimate beneficial ownership of any Class B ordinary share to any person who is not an affiliate of the registered shareholder of such share, such Class B ordinary share shall be automatically and immediately converted into one Class A ordinary share. Except for conversion rights and voting rights, holders of Class A and Class B ordinary shares have the same rights, Series A-1 and Series A-2 preferred shares have the same rights, and Series B-1 and Series B-2 have the same rights, respectively. High Vote Shares are held by the Company, the CEO of Huya and Tencent, respectively, representing 58.0%, 2.9% and 38.0% voting interest in Huya on an as-converted basis, as of the closing of the Transaction. Upon the completion of the Transaction, Huya’s Board of Directors consists three directors, in which the Company appointed two directors and Tencent appointed one director. As the Company has the majority of voting power, the Company remains control over Huya. (c) On February 5, 2018, Tencent and Huya through their respective PRC affiliated entities, entered into a business cooperation agreement, which became effective on March 8, 2018. Pursuant to the agreement, both parties agreed to establish strategic cooperation relationship in various areas, including game publishing and operation, live game streaming content provision and broadcaster management. Detail cooperation terms will be negotiated on a case by case basis in the normal course of business. This agreement has a term of three years, which will be renewed subject to both parties’ negotiation. (d) On March 20, 2018 and March 22, 2018, the Company sold its 1,397,059 Class B ordinary shares of Huya to one of the holders of Huya’s Series A-1 preferred shares, D.I. Alpha Media Company Limited and 6,985,294 Class B ordinary shares to one third party investor, HHHY Holdings Limited, at a price of US$7.16 per share. Such Class B ordinary shares were automatically converted into an equal number of Class A ordinary shares. (e) On February 23, 2018, Duowan BVI entered into an Equity Transfer Agreement with Momo Inc., NASDAQ listed company, pursuant to which Duowan BVI has agreed to dispose 9.84% equity interest in Tantan Limited, at a consideration of US$86 million. Upon completion of the disposal, the Group will cease to hold any interest in Tantan. The pre-tax gain arising from this disposal is approximately US$56.3 million. (f) On March 15, 2018, Huya granted 6,102,353 share options with an exercise price of US$2.55 to Huya’s chairman and certain consultants with the same terms as those of share options granted in 2017, which have been disclosed in Note 25(b). The grant date fair value of the option was estimated to be approximately US$5.21 per share. (g) On March 31, 2018, Huya granted 3,655,084 restricted shares units to certain employees. There are two types of vesting schedule, which are: i) 50% of the restricted share units will be vested after 24 months of the grant date and the remaining 50% will be vested in two equal installments over the following 24 months, and ii) restricted share units will be vested in four equal installments over the following 48 months. The grant date fair value was estimated to be approximately US$7.16 per share. (h) In March 2018, Duowan BVI acquired all the equity interest of Bilin Information Technology Co., Ltd ("Bilin Information") held by the minority equity holders at a consideration of RMB30 million, and Bilin Information became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. |

| Restricted net assets |
Relevant PRC laws and regulations permit payments of dividends by the Group’s subsidiaries and VIEs incorporated in the PRC only out of their retained earnings, if any, as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. In addition, the Company’s subsidiaries and VIEs in the PRC are required to annually appropriate 10% of their net after-tax income to the statutory general reserve fund prior to payment of any dividends, unless such reserve funds have reached 50% of their respective registered capital. As a result of these and other restrictions under PRC laws and regulations, the Group’s subsidiaries and VIEs incorporated in the PRC are restricted in their ability to transfer a portion of their net assets to the Company either in the form of dividends, loans or advances, which restricted portion as calculated under U.S. GAAP amounted to approximately RMB2,678,921 and RMB3,559,861 as of December 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively. There are no differences between U.S. GAAP and PRC accounting standards in connection with the reported net assets of the legally owned subsidiaries in the PRC and the VIEs. Even though the Company currently does not require any such dividends, loans or advances from the PRC entities for working capital and other funding purposes, the Company may in the future require additional cash resources from them due to changes in business conditions, to fund future acquisitions and development, or merely to declare and pay dividends or distributions to our shareholders. Except for the above, there is no other restriction on use of proceeds generated by the Group’s subsidiaries and VIEs to satisfy any obligations of the Company. The Company performed a test on the restricted net assets of subsidiaries and VIEs in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X Rule 4-08 (e) (3), “General Notes to Financial Statements” and concluded that the restricted net assets exceeded 25% of the consolidated net assets of the Company as of December 31, 2017 and the condensed financial information of the Company are required to be presented (Note 32). |

| Segment Reporting |
Starting from the first quarter of 2015, in order to better evaluate the Group’s business performance and better allocate resources the CODM began to review YY IVAS and others, Huya broadcasting, and 100 Education separately. In June 2016, the Group revamped the branding from YY IVAS to YY Live. Therefore, the segment of “YY IVAS and others” was renamed as “YY Live”. For the year ended December 31, 2015, net revenues of “YY IVAS” and “others” were presented to the CODM’s review separately. Following the revamp of the branding, net revenues of “YY Live” as a whole are presented to the CODM’s review. Segment presentation for the year ended December 31, 2015 has been updated to be consistent with the segment presentation for the year ended December 31, 2016 and 2017. As the Company has disposed of a great majority of its online education business before the end of 2016 and disposed of the remaining portion of its online education business in the beginning of 2017, 100 Education ceased to be an operating segment starting from the first quarter of 2017. In addition, the Company revamped its internal organization and one sub-business stream previously presented and reviewed under YY Live was changed to be presented and reviewed under Huya from the first quarter of 2017. Segment information of comparative periods has been restated accordingly. Starting from the three months ended December 31, 2017, the Company reviews the financial performance of the operating segments up to the net income of each segment. Segment information for comparative periods has been revised to be presented on the same basis as the year ended December 31, 2017. As the Group’s long-lived assets and revenue are substantially located in and derived from the PRC, no geographical segments are presented. The Group currently does not allocate assets to all of its segments, as its CODM does not use such information to allocate resources or evaluate the performance of the operating segments. The following table presents summary information by segment: For the year ended December 31, 2017:
(1) Share-based compensation was allocated in cost of revenues and operating expenses as follows:

Principal accounting policies (Policies) |
12 Months Ended | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Dec. 31, 2017 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Principal accounting policies [Abstract] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Basis of presentation |
The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with the U.S. GAAP to reflect the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Group. Significant accounting policies followed by the Group in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are summarized below. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Consolidation |
The Group’s consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, its subsidiaries and VIEs for which the Company or its subsidiary is the primary beneficiary. All transactions and balances among the Company, its subsidiaries and VIEs have been eliminated upon consolidation. A subsidiary is an entity in which the Company, directly or indirectly, controls more than one half of the voting powers; or has the power to appoint or remove the majority of the members of the board of directors; or to cast a majority of votes at the meeting of directors; or has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the investee under a statute or agreement among the shareholders or equity holders. A VIE is an entity in which the Company, or its subsidiary, through contractual agreements, bears the risks of, and enjoys the rewards normally associated with ownership of the entity, and therefore the Company or its subsidiary is the primary beneficiary of the entity. In determining whether the Company or its subsidiaries are the primary beneficiary, the Company considered whether it has the power to direct activities that are significant to the VIEs economic performance, and also the Company’s obligation to absorb losses of the VIEs that could potentially be significant to the VIEs or the right to receive benefits from the VIEs that could potentially be significant to the VIEs. Beijing Huanju Shidai, Bilin Changxiang, Huya Technology and ultimately the Company hold all the variable interests of the VIEs and have been determined to be the primary beneficiary of the VIEs. The Company deconsolidates its subsidiaries in accordance with ASC 810 as of the date the Company ceased to have a controlling financial interest in the subsidiaries. The Company accounts for the deconsolidation of its subsidiaries by recognizing a gain or loss in net income/loss attributable to the Company in accordance with ASC 810. This gain or loss is measured at the date the subsidiaries are deconsolidated as the difference between (a) the aggregate of the fair value of any consideration received, the fair value of any retained non-controlling interest in the subsidiaries being deconsolidated, and the carrying amount of any non-controlling interest in the subsidiaries being deconsolidated, including any accumulated other comprehensive income/loss attributable to the non-controlling interest, and (b) the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities of the subsidiaries being deconsolidated. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Use of estimates |
The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, mezzanine equity and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from such estimates. The Company believes that the user relationship period related to online games revenue, assessment of whether the Group acts as a principal or an agent in different revenue streams, classification of perpetual items versus consumable items under item-based model, the determination of estimated selling prices of multiple element revenue contracts, income taxes, allowances for doubtful accounts, determination of share-based compensation expenses, impairment assessment of goodwill, long-lived assets and intangible assets, tax considerations for earnings retained in the Group’s VIEs, assessment on the probability of performance condition affiliated in equity-classified award under ASC 718 that affect vesting, represent critical accounting policies that reflect more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements. Management bases the estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Foreign currency translation |
The Group uses Renminbi (“RMB”) as its reporting currency. The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries incorporated in the Cayman Islands, British Virgin Islands, and Hong Kong is United States dollar (“US$”), while the functional currency of the other entities and VIEs in the Group is RMB, which is their respective local currency. In the consolidated financial statements, the financial information of the Company and its subsidiaries, which use US$ as their functional currency, have been translated into RMB. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates on the balance sheet date, equity amounts are translated at historical exchange rates, and revenues, expenses, gains, and losses are translated using the average exchange rate for the period. Translation adjustments arising from these are reported as foreign currency translation adjustments and are shown as a component of other comprehensive income or loss in the statement of comprehensive income. Foreign currency transactions denominated in currencies other than functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are remeasured at the applicable rates of exchange in effect at that date. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from remeasurement at year-end are recognized in foreign currency exchange gains/losses, net in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Convenience translation |
Translations of amounts from RMB into US$ for the convenience of the reader were calculated at the noon buying rate of US$1.00 = RMB 6.5063 on December 29, 2017 as set forth in the H.10 statistical release of the U.S. Federal Reserve Board. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into US$ at such rate. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Cash and cash equivalents |
Cash includes currency on hand and deposits held by financial institutions that can be added to or withdrawn without limitation. Cash equivalents represent short-term and highly liquid investments placed with banks, which have both of the following characteristics:
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Short-term deposits |
Short-term deposits represent time deposits placed with banks with original maturities of less than one year. Interest earned is recorded as interest income in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income during the periods presented. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Short-term investments |
For investments in financial instruments with a variable interest rate indexed to the performance of underlying assets, the Company elected the fair value method at the date of initial recognition and carried these investments subsequently at fair value. Changes in fair values are reflected in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Accounts receivable |
Accounts receivable are presented net of allowance for doubtful accounts. The Group uses specific identification in providing for bad debts when facts and circumstances indicate that collection is doubtful and a loss is probable and estimable. If the financial conditions of its customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowance may be required. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts which reflects its best estimate of amounts that potentially will not be collected. The Company determines the allowance for doubtful accounts on an individual basis taking into consideration various factors including but not limited to historical collection experience and credit-worthiness of the debtors as well as the age of the individual receivables balance. Additionally, the Company makes specific bad debt provisions based on any specific knowledge the Company has acquired that might indicate that an account is uncollectible. The facts and circumstances of each account may require the Company to use substantial judgment in assessing its collectability. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Equity investment |
The equity investment is comprised of investments in privately-held entities. The Group accounts for its equity investment over which it has significant influence but does not own a majority equity interest or otherwise control using the equity method. The Group adjusts the carrying amount of the investment and recognizes investment income or loss for share of the earnings or loss of the investee after the date of investment. The Group assesses its equity investment for other-than-temporary impairment by considering factors including, but not limited to, current economic and market conditions, operating performance of the entities, including current earnings trends and undiscounted cash flows, and other entity-specific information. The fair value determination, particularly for investment in privately-held entities, requires judgment to determine appropriate estimates and assumptions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could affect the calculation of the fair value of the investment and determination of whether any identified impairment is other-than-temporary. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Cost investment |
The cost investment is comprised of investments in privately-held entities. The Group accounts for cost investment which has no readily determinable fair value using the cost method. Under the cost method, the investment is measured initially at cost. The investment carried at cost should recognize income when dividends are received from the distribution of the investee’s earnings. The Group periodically evaluates the carrying value of investments accounted for under the cost method of accounting and any impairment is included in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Available-for-sale investment |
The Group classifies its investments in debt and equity securities into one of three categories and accounts for these as follows: (i) debt securities that the Group has the positive intent and the ability to hold to maturity are classified as “held to maturity” and reported at amortized cost; (ii) debt and equity securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as “trading securities” with unrealized holding gains and losses included in earnings; (iii) debt and equity securities not classified as held to maturity or as trading securities are classified as “available-for-sale” and reported at fair value. The Group has designated its investments in redeemable preferred shares of two private companies and common shares of one listed company as available-for-sale securities in accordance with ASC 320 (Note 11). Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and reported as accumulated other comprehensive income/loss, net of tax. Realized gains or losses upon disposal are charged to earnings during the period in which the gains or losses are realized. An impairment loss on the available-for-sale securities is recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income when the decline in value is determined to be other-than-temporary. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Property and equipment |
Property and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss, if any. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. Residual rate is determined based on the economic value of the property and equipment at the end of the estimated useful lives as a percentage of the original cost.
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. The gain or loss on the disposal of property and equipment is the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the relevant assets and is recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. All direct and indirect costs that are related to the construction of property and equipment and incurred before the assets are ready for their intended use are capitalized as construction in progress. Construction in progress is transferred to specific property and equipment items and depreciation of these assets commences when they are ready for their intended use. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Business combinations |
Business combinations are recorded using the purchase method of accounting, and the cost of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the fair values at the date of exchange of the assets given, liabilities incurred, and equity instruments issued as well as the contingent considerations and all contractual contingencies as of the acquisition date. The costs directly attributable to the acquisition are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired or assumed are measured separately at their fair value as of the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any non-controlling interests. The excess of (i) the total of consideration of acquisition, fair value of the non-controlling interests and acquisition date fair value of any previously held equity interest in the subsidiary acquired over (ii) the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the subsidiary acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the consideration of acquisition is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognized directly in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Intangible assets |
Intangible assets mainly consist of brand names, operating rights, software, domain names and technology. Identifiable intangible assets are carried at acquisition cost less accumulated amortization and impairment loss, if any. Finite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment if impairment indicators arise. Amortization of finite-lived intangible assets is computed using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, which are as follows:
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Land use right |
Land use right is carried at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization of the land use right is made on straight-line basis over 40 years from the date when the Group first obtained the land use right certificate from the local authorities. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Impairment of long-lived assets |
For long-lived assets other than investments and goodwill whose impairment policy is discussed elsewhere in the financial statements, the Group evaluates for impairment whenever events or changes (triggering events) indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may no longer be recoverable. The Group assesses the recoverability of the long-lived assets by comparing the carrying value of the long-lived assets to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to receive from use of the assets and their eventual disposition. Such assets are considered to be impaired if the sum of the expected undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the assets. The impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. The Group tests impairment of long-lived assets at the reporting unit level when impairment indicator appeared and recognizes impairment in the event that the carrying value exceeds the fair value of each reporting unit. The impairment charges of intangible assets recorded in general and administrative expenses for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017 were amounting to RMB57,199, RMB3,828 and nil, respectively. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Goodwill |
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the amounts assigned to the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed of an acquired business. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Annual test for impairment of goodwill |
Goodwill assessment for impairment is performed on at least an annual basis on October 1 or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. The Group performs a two-step goodwill impairment test. The first step compares the fair values of each reporting unit to its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill is not considered impaired and the second step will not be required. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step compares the implied fair value of the affected reporting unit’s goodwill to the carrying value of that goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined in a manner similar to accounting for a business combination with the allocation of the assessed fair value determined in the first step to the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit. The excess of the fair value of the reporting unit over the amounts assigned to the assets and liabilities is the implied fair value of goodwill. This allocation process is only performed for purposes of evaluating goodwill impairment and does not result in an entry to adjust the value of any assets or liabilities. An impairment loss is recognized for any excess in the carrying value of goodwill over the implied fair value of goodwill. The judgment in estimating the fair value of reporting units includes estimating future cash flows, determining appropriate discount rates and making other assumptions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of the fair value of each reporting unit. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Convertible bonds |
The Group determines the appropriate accounting treatment of its convertible bonds in accordance with the terms in relation to the conversion feature, call and put options, and beneficial conversion feature. After considering the impact of such features, the Group may account for such instrument as a liability in its entirety, or separate the instrument into debt and equity components following the respective guidance described under ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging and ASC 470 Debt. The debt discount, if any, together with related issuance cost are subsequently amortized as interest expense, using the effective interest method, from the issuance date to the earliest conversion date. Interest expenses are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income in the period in which they are incurred. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Mezzanine equity and non-controlling interest |
Mezzanine equity For the Company’s majority-owned subsidiaries and consolidated VIEs, a non-controlling interest is recognized to reflect the portion of their equity which is not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Company. When the non-controlling interest is contingently redeemable upon the occurrence of a conditional event, which is not solely within the control of the Company, the non-controlling interest is classified as mezzanine equity. In accordance with ASC subtopic 480-10, the Group calculated, on an accumulative basis from the acquisition date, (i) the amount of accretion that would increase the balance of non-controlling interests to their estimated redemption value over the period from the date of acquisition to the earliest redemption date of the non-controlling interests and (ii) the amount of net (loss) profit attributable to non-controlling shareholders of certain subsidiaries based on their ownership percentage. The carrying value of the non-controlling interests as mezzanine equity was adjusted by an accumulative amount equal to the higher of (i) and (ii). Each type of increase in carrying amount shall be recorded as charges against retained earnings or, in the absence of retained earnings, by charges against additional paid-in capital. Non-controlling interest Non-controlling interests are recognized to reflect the portion of the equity of majority-owned subsidiaries and VIEs which is not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the controlling shareholder. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Revenue recognition |
The Group generates revenues from live streaming, online games, membership and others. Revenues from live streaming are generated from YY Live platform and Huya platform. Revenues from online games are generated from providing online game platform and access of the games for the game players. Membership subscription program enhanced user privileges when using the Group’s platforms. Other revenues mainly include online education revenue and advertising revenue. Online education services consist of vocational training and language training courses. Online advertising revenues are primarily generated from sales of different forms of advertising on the Group’s platforms. Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, service has been rendered, the price is fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured. The Group has a recharge system for users to purchase the Group's virtual currency. Users can recharge via various online payment platforms provided by third parties. Virtual currency is non-refundable and often consumed soon after it is purchased. Unconsumed virtual currency is recorded as deferred revenue. Virtual currencies used to purchase virtual items are recognized as revenue according to the prescribed revenue recognition policies of virtual items addressed below unless otherwise stated. (i) Live streaming Live streaming mainly consists of YY Live platform and Huya platform. It generates revenue from sales of virtual items in the platforms. Users can access the platforms and view the live streaming content for free. The Group designs, creates and offers various virtual items for sales to users with pre-determined selling price. Sales proceeds are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized as revenue based on the consumption of the virtual items. Virtual items are categorized as consumable and time-based items. Consumable items are consumed upon purchase and use while time-based items could be used for a fixed period of time. Users can purchase and present consumable items to performers to show support for their favorite performers, or purchase time-based virtual items for one or multiple months for a monthly fee, which provide users with recognized status, such as priority speaking rights or special symbols over a period of time. Accordingly, live streaming revenue is recognized immediately when the consumable virtual item is used, or in the case of time-based virtual items, revenue is recognized ratably over the fixed period on a straight-line basis. The Group does not have further obligations to the user after the virtual items are consumed immediately or after the stated period of time for time-based items. Virtual items may be sold individually or bundled into one arrangement. When the Group’s users purchase multiple virtual items bundled within the same arrangement, the Group evaluates such arrangements under ASC 605-25 Multiple-Element Arrangements. The Group identifies individual elements under the arrangement and determines if such elements meet the criteria to be accounted for as separate units of accounting. The Group allocates the arrangement consideration to the separate units of accounting based on their relative selling price. The following hierarchy has been followed when determining the relative selling price for each element: (1) vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”), (2) third party evidence (“TPE”), and (3) best estimate of selling price (“BESP”). Given that the VSOE of the selling price cannot be determined, the Group has adopted a policy to allocate the consideration of the whole arrangement to different virtual item elements based on the TPE of selling price or the BESP for each virtual item element. The Group determines the fair values of elements sold in a bundle based on similar products sold separately on the YY Live platform and Huya platform based on the TPE of the selling price and determines the fair values of elements without similar products sold separately on the YY Live platform and Huya platform based on the BESP. The BESP is generally based on the selling prices of the various elements of a similar nature when they are sold to users on a stand-alone basis. The BESP may also be based on an estimated stand-alone pricing when the element has not previously been sold on a stand-alone basis. (ii) Online games revenue The Group generates revenues from offering virtual items in online games developed by third parties or the Group itself to gaming players. Historically, the majority of online games revenues for the three years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017 were derived from third parties developed games. Users play games through the Group’s platform free of charge and are charged for purchases of virtual items including consumable and perpetual items, which can be utilized in the online games to enhance their game-playing experience. Consumable items represent virtual items that can be consumed by a specific user within a specified period of time. Perpetual items represent virtual items that are accessible to the users’ account over the life of the online games. The Group recognizes revenue when recognition criteria defined under U.S. GAAP are satisfied. For purposes of determining when the service has been provided to the paying player, the Group has determined that an implied obligation exists to the paying player to continue providing access to the games such that the users can utilize the virtual items purchased. Game players need to log on and access the games through the Group’s platform because their game tokens, virtual items, and game history are specific to the Group’s game accounts and non-transferable to other platforms. To purchase in-game virtual items, players can either charge their game accounts by purchasing game tokens or virtual currency from the Group’s platform, which is convertible into game tokens based on a predetermined exchange rate agreed among the Group and the relevant game developers. The proceeds from the sales of the Group’s virtual currency is recorded as “Advances from customers”, representing prepayments received from users in the form of the Group’s virtual currency not yet converted into game specific tokens. Upon the conversion into a game token from the Group’s virtual currency or upon the direct purchase of a game token, whichever is applicable, the proceeds will be shared between the Group and the relevant game developer based on a predetermined contractual ratio. Game tokens are non-refundable and non-exchangeable among different games. The Group’s portion, net of the game developer’s entitled consideration, is recorded as deferred revenue and amortized according to the prescribed revenue recognition policies described below. Users typically do not convert the virtual currency into game tokens or purchase the game tokens unless they plan to purchase in-game virtual items soon. There are two types of third party developed online games:
Under the non-exclusive arrangement, game developers license the games to various platforms and the Group is only one of the platforms. Game developers will receive only revenue shared from the Group pursuant to the mutually agreed sharing percentage. Under the exclusive arrangement, game developers only license the game to the Group as the exclusive licensee. The Group can sub-license the games to other platforms and receive a portion of revenue sharing from sub-licensees. In addition to the revenue shared to the game developers, the Group should also pay an exclusive license fee to the game developers.
Pursuant to contracts signed between the Group and the respective game developers, revenues from the sale or conversion of game tokens for the purchase of in-game virtual items from online games developed by third parties are shared between the Group and the game developers based on a pre-agreed ratio for each game. These revenue-sharing contracts typically last for one to two years. The third party developed games under non-exclusive licensing contracts are maintained and updated by the game developers. The Group views the game developers to be the Group’s customers and considers the Group’s responsibilities under the agreements with the game developers to offer certain standard promotions that include providing access to the platform, announcing the new games to users on the platform, and occasional advertising on the Group’s platforms. The determination of whether to record these revenues using gross or net method is based on an assessment of various factors. The primary factors are whether the Group is acting as the principal in offering services to the game players or as agent in the transaction, and the specific requirement of each contract. The Group determined that for third party developed games, the third party game developers are the principals given the game developers design and develop the online game services offered, have reasonable latitude to establish prices of game tokens, and are responsible for maintaining and upgrading the game contents and virtual items. Accordingly, the Group records online games revenue, net of the pre-agreed portion of sharing of the revenues with the game developers. Given that third party developed games under non-exclusive licensing contracts are managed and administered by the third party game developers, the Group does not have access to the data on the consumption details such as when the game token is spent on the virtual items or the types of virtual items (consumable or perpetual items) purchased by each individual game player. However, the Group maintains historical data on timing of the conversion of its virtual currency into game specific tokens and the amount of purchases of game tokens. The Group believes that its performance for, and obligation to, the game developers correspond to the game developers’ services to the users. The Group has adopted a policy to recognize revenues relating to game tokens for third party developed games over the estimated user relationship period with the Group on a game-by-game basis, which is approximately one to six months for the periods presented. Future usage patterns may differ from historical usage patterns and therefore the estimated user relationship period with the Group may change in the future. When the Group launches a new game, it estimates the user relationship period based on other similar types of games in the market until the new game establishes its own history. The Group considers the game’s profile, attributes, target audience, and its appeal to players of different demographics groups in estimating the user relationship period. The estimated user relationship period is based on data collected from those users who have acquired game tokens. To estimate the user relationship period, the Group maintains a system that captures the following information for each user: (a) the frequency that users log into each game via the Group’s platform, and (b) the amount and the timing of when the users convert or charge his or her game tokens. The Group estimates the user relationship period for a particular game to be the date a player purchases or converts from virtual currency to a game token through the date the Group estimates the user plays the game for the last time. This computation is performed on a user by user basis. Then, the results for all analyzed users are averaged to determine an estimated end user relationship period for each game. Revenues from in-game payments of each month are recognized over the user relationship period estimated for that game. The consideration of user relationship period with each online game is based on the Group’s best estimate that takes into account all known and relevant information at the time of assessment. The Group assesses the estimated user relationship period for each game on a quarterly basis. Any adjustments arising from changes in the user relationship period as a result of new information will be accounted as a change in accounting estimate in accordance with ASC 250 Accounting Changes and Error Corrections.
Under certain exclusive arrangements, the Group pays additional license fees to the game developers as the Group is entitled to an exclusive right to operate third party developed games in specified geographic areas. Based on ASC 350, the Group has adopted an accounting policy to recognize the exclusive license fee as an intangible asset upon the commercial launch of the related online games. This intangible asset is amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the economic life or license period of the relevant online game. Pursuant to the exclusive licensing contracts signed between the Group and the third party game developers, the Group’s responsibilities in operating the licensed games vary for each game. The determination of whether to record these revenues using gross or net method is based on an assessment of various factors, including but not limited to whether the Group (i) is the primary obligor in the arrangement; (ii) has latitude in establishing the selling price; (iii) changes the product or performs part of the service, (iv) has involvement in the determination of product and service specifications. For the game license arrangements under which the Group takes primary responsibilities of game operation, including determining distribution and payment channels, providing customer services, hosting game servers, if needed, and controlling game and services specifications and pricing, the Group considered itself to be the principal in these arrangements. Accordingly, the Group records online games revenues from these third party licensed games on a gross basis. Commission fees paid to distribution channels and payment channels and content fees paid to third party game developers are recorded as cost of revenues. For the game license arrangements under which the Group’s responsibilities are limited to publishing, providing payment solutions and game operating advice, the Group views the game developers to be its customers and considers itself to be the agent in the arrangements. Accordingly, the Group records online games revenues from these third party licensed games, net of fees paid to third parties upon the provision of service. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of certain online game exclusive license agreements entered into between game developers and the Group, the Group, as the exclusive licensee, could sublicense a non-exclusive, non-transferable and limited license to any third party without the prior formal consent of game developers. Under the non-exclusive and non-transferable limited license, the sub-licensee cannot further license the game to other platforms. The Group received monthly revenue-based royalty payments from all sub-licensees. The Group views the third-party sub-licensees operators as its customers and recognizes revenues on a net basis, as the Group does not have the primary responsibility for fulfillment and acceptability of the game services. Similar to other online games, the exclusive third party developed games are free to play and players can pay for virtual items for better in-game experience. For exclusive third party games, the consumption details can be provided by third party developers or the Group has access to such data. Therefore, the Group recognizes revenues based on item-based model: (1) for consumable items, the revenue is recognized immediately upon consumption; (2) for perpetual items, the revenue is recognized ratably over the user relationship period of a specific game as described. The determination of user relationship period is the same as what is described in “Non-exclusive third party developed games” above.
Revenues derived from self-developed games are recorded on a gross basis as the Group acts as a principal to fulfill all obligations. Considering that revenues derived from self-developed games were immaterial to the Group for the years presented, the Group does not maintain information on consumption details of in-game virtual items, and only maintains limited information related to the frequency of log-ons for its self-developed games. Given that certain historical data is not available, the Group uses the user relationship period of third party games with similar popularity, gaming experience and sales to determine the estimated period of user relationship for its self-developed games.
The Group operates a membership subscription program where subscription members can have enhanced user privileges when using YY Client and live streaming channels. The membership fee is collected up-front from subscribers. The receipt of the revenue is initially recorded as deferred revenue and revenue is recognized ratably over the period of the subscription when services are rendered. Unrecognized portion beyond 12 months from balance sheet date is classified as long-term deferred revenue. (iv) Others Other revenues mainly include online education revenues and advertising revenues. (1) Online education revenues Educational programs and services consist of vocational training and language training courses. The course fee is generally paid in advance and is initially recorded as deferred revenue. Revenue for regular courses is recognized proportionately as the classes are attended, and is reported net of scholarships and course fee refunds. Students are entitled to one trial class of the purchased course and course fee is fully refundable if a student decides not to take the remaining course after the trial class. No refund will be provided to a student who withdraws from a course after the trial period, and revenue is recognized for the amount collected. Course fee refunds were insignificant over the period presented. In addition to regular courses, the Company also provides a package of several regular courses to students, which has individual fair value in the market. Pursuant to the applicable accounting guidance, the Company has accounted for these course packages as a multiple-element arrangement because each individual course qualifies as a single unit of accounting, and allocated the course fee from the course package to each individual course in the package based on its relative fair value. The Company recognizes revenue equal to the fair value allocated to individual courses proportionately as the classes are attended. Students are granted a right to retake the courses at a substantial discount in the circumstances where the students fail to achieve certain score targets for some specific courses. The discount arrangement has a stand-alone value and qualifies as a separate unit of accounting under U.S. GAAP. Therefore, the Company has accounted for those courses as a multiple-element arrangement and allocated a portion of the initial course fee to the substantial discount based on a breakage rate. The breakage rate is determined based on our historical data. The amount allocated to the substantial discount is deferred and recognized as revenue upon the expiration of the retaking right, which is generally six months after the end of the initial course term. The Company also sells pre-paid cards primarily to distributors. Pre-paid card sales represent prepaid service fees received from students for online courses. The prepaid service fee is recorded as deferred revenue upon receiving the upfront cash payment. Revenue is recognized on a gross basis based on the selling price of the distributors to the students and is recognized over the period the online course is available to the students, which generally is from the enrolment date to the completion of the relevant professional examination date. (2) Advertising revenues The Group primarily generate advertising revenues from sales of various forms of advertising and provision of promotion campaigns on the live streaming platforms by way of advertisement display or integrated promotion activities in shows and programs on the live streaming platforms. Advertisements on the Group’s platforms are generally charged on the basis of duration, and advertising contracts are signed to establish the fixed price and the advertising services to be provided. Where collectability is reasonably assured, advertising revenues from advertising contracts are recognized ratably over the contract period of display. For the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, net revenue generated from advertising was RMB62,740, RMB41,685 and RMB112,778, respectively. The Group enters into advertising contracts directly with advertisers or third party advertising agencies that represent advertisers. Contract terms generally range from 1 to 3 months. Both third party advertising agencies and direct advertisers are generally billed at the end of the display period and payments are due usually within 3 months. Where customers purchase multiple advertising spaces with different display periods in the same contract, the Group allocates the total consideration to the various advertising elements based on the relative selling price method and recognizes revenue for the different elements over their respective display periods. The following hierarchy should be followed when determining the appropriate selling price for each element: (1) vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”), (2) third party evidence (“TPE”), and (3) best estimate of selling price (“BESP”). Given that the VSOE or TPE of the selling price cannot be determined, the Group has adopted a policy to allocate the fair values of different advertising elements based on the best estimate selling prices of each advertisement within the contract taking into consideration the standard price list and historical discounts granted. The Group recognizes revenue on the elements delivered and defers the recognition of revenue for the fair value of the undelivered elements until the remaining obligations have been satisfied. Where all of the elements within an arrangement are delivered uniformly over the agreement period, the revenues are recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract period. Transactions with third party advertising agencies For contracts entered into with third party advertising agencies, the third party advertising agencies will in turn sell the advertising services to advertisers. Revenue is recognized ratably over the contract period of display based on the following criteria:
The Group provides sales incentives in the forms of discounts and rebates to third party advertising agencies based on purchase volume. As the advertising agencies are viewed as the customers in these transactions, revenue is recognized based on the price charged to the agencies, net of sales incentives provided to the agencies. Sales incentives are estimated and recorded at the time of revenue recognition based on the contracted rebate rates and estimated sales volume based on historical experience. Transactions with advertisers The Group also enters into advertisement contracts directly with advertisers. Similar to transactions with third party advertising agencies, the Group recognizes revenue ratably as the elements are delivered over the contract period of display. The terms and conditions, including price, are fixed according to the contract between the Group and the advertisers. The Group also performs a credit assessment of all advertisers prior to entering into contracts. Revenue is recognized based on the amount charged to the advertisers, net of discounts. |

| Advances from customers and deferred revenue |
Advances from customers primarily consist of prepayments from users in the form of the Group’s virtual currency that are not yet consumed or converted into game tokens, and upon the consumption or conversion, are recognized as revenue according to the prescribed revenue recognition policies described above. Deferred revenue primarily consists of the unamortized game tokens, prepaid subscriptions under the membership program and unamortized revenue from virtual items in various channels in the Group’s platforms, where there is still an implied obligation to be provided by the Group, which will be recognized as revenue when all of the revenue recognition criteria are met. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Cost of revenues |
Amounts recorded as cost of revenue relate to direct expenses incurred in order to generate revenue. Such costs are recorded as incurred. Cost of revenues consists primarily of (i) revenue sharing fees and content costs, including payments to various channel owners and performers, and content providers, (ii) bandwidth costs, (iii) salary and welfare, (iv) depreciation and amortization expense for servers, other equipment and intangibles directly related to operating the platform, (v) payment handling cost, (vi) Other taxes and surcharges, (vii) share-based compensation, and (viii) other costs. The Group was subject to cultural development fee at a tax rate of 3% on service income from provision of advertising services in the PRC. The Group was also subject to surcharges of VAT, which are calculated based on 12% of the VAT paid for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017. The Group reported other taxes and surcharges, and cultural development fees in cost of revenues. Based on the Group’s corporate structure and the contractual arrangements among the Group’s PRC subsidiaries, the Group’s VIEs and their shareholders, the Group is effectively subject to 6% or 17% VAT and related surcharges on revenues generated by the Group’s subsidiaries based on the Group’s contractual arrangements entered into with the Group’s VIEs. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Research and development expenses |
Research and development expenses consist primarily of (i) salary and welfare for research and development personnel, (ii) share-based compensation for research and development personnel, (iii) depreciation of office premise and servers utilized by research and development personnel and (iv) rental expenses. Costs incurred during the research stage are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred in the development stage, prior to the establishment of technological feasibility, which is when a working model is available, are expensed when incurred. The Company recognizes internal use software development costs in accordance with guidance on intangible assets and internal use software. This requires capitalization of qualifying costs incurred during the software’s application development stage and to expense costs as they are incurred during the preliminary project and post implementation/operation stages. The Company has not capitalized any costs related to internal use software during the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Sales and marketing expenses |
Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of (i) advertising and market promotion expenses, and (ii) salary and welfare for sales and marketing personnel. The advertising and market promotion expenses amounted to approximately RMB253,210, RMB298,681 and RMB621,771 during the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| General and administrative expenses |
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of (i) share-based compensation for management and administrative personnel, (ii) salary and welfare for general and administrative personnel, and (iii) professional service fees. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Employee social security and welfare benefits |
Employees of the Group in the PRC are entitled to staff welfare benefits including pension, work-related injury benefits, maternity insurance, medical insurance, unemployment benefit and housing fund plans through a PRC government-mandated multi-employer defined contribution plan. The Group is required to accrue for these benefits based on certain percentages of the employees’ salaries, up to a maximum amount specified by the local government. The Group is required to make contributions to the plans out of the amounts accrued. The PRC government is responsible for the medical benefits and the pension liability to be paid to these employees and the Group’s obligations are limited to the amounts contributed and no legal obligation beyond the contributions made. Employee social security and welfare benefits included as expenses in the accompanying statements of comprehensive income amounted to RMB171,349, RMB206,704 and RMB214,848 for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Share based compensation |
The Group grants stock-based award, such as, but not limited to, share options, restricted shares, restricted share units of the Company, share option and ordinary shares of the Company’s subsidiary to eligible employees, officers, directors, and non-employee consultants. Awards granted to employees, officers, and directors are initially accounted for as equity-classified awards. The related share-based compensation expenses are measured at the grant date fair value of the award and are recognized using the graded vesting method, net of estimated forfeiture rates, over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant based on historical forfeiture rates and will be revised in the subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Duowan BVI also granted share options, restricted shares and restricted share units to non-employees, which are also initially accounted for as equity-classified awards. Awards granted to non-employees are initially measured at fair value on the grant date and periodically remeasured thereafter until the earlier of the performance commitment date or the date the service is completed and recognized over the period the service is provided. Awards are remeasured at each reporting date using the fair value as at each period end until the measurement date, generally when the services are completed and share-based awards are vested. Changes in fair value between the interim reporting dates are recorded in consistent with the method used in recognizing the original compensation costs. For an award with a performance and/or service condition that affects vesting, the performance and/or service condition is not considered in determining the award’s fair value on the grant date. Performance and service conditions should be considered when the Company is estimating the quantity of awards that will vest. Compensation cost will reflect the number of awards that are expected to vest and will be adjusted to reflect those awards that do ultimately vest. The Group recognizes compensation cost for awards with performance conditions if and when the Group concludes that it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved, net of an estimate of pre-vesting forfeitures over the requisite service period. The Group reassesses the probability of vesting at each reporting period for awards with performance conditions and adjusts compensation cost based on its probability assessment, unless on certain situations, the Group may not be able to determine that it is probable that a performance condition will be satisfied until the event occurs. The Group's share-based awards mainly include share-based awards of YY as well as share options and ordinary shares of Huya, details of which are disclosed in Note 25. Fair value determination of these share-based awards is summarized as below: (1) YY's restricted share units In determining the fair value of restricted share units granted, the fair value of the underlying shares of YY on the grant dates is applied. The grant date fair value of restricted share units is based on stock price of YY in the NASDAQ Global Market. (2) Huya's share options In determining the fair value of share options granted, a binomial option-pricing model is applied. The determination of the fair value is affected by the fair value of the ordinary shares as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables, including risk-free interest rates, exercise multiples, expected forfeiture rates, the expected share price volatility rates, and expected dividends. (3) Huya's ordinary shares In determining the fair value of the ordinary shares of Huya granted, a combination of discounted cash flow method (“DCF”) under income approach and guideline companies method (“GCM”) under market approach is applied, with a discount for lack of marketability, given that the shares underlying the awards were not publicly traded at the time of grant. DCF method of the income approach involves applying appropriate weighted average cost of capital, or WACC, to discount the future cash flows forecast, based on the Group's best estimates as of the valuation date, to present value. The WACC was determined based on a consideration of the factors including risk-free rate, comparative industry risk, equity risk premium, company size and non-systematic risk factors. GCM was also adopted under the market approach to arrive at an equity valuation for Huya. GCM employs trading multiples method of selected public comparable companies including trailing and leading Enterprise Value/Revenue multiples. Based on the Group's current stage of development and the conceptual strength of the income approach, the Group assigned 50% weight to each of the income approach and the market approach for the valuation date. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Other income |
Other income primarily consists of government grants which represent cash subsidies received from the PRC government by the Group entities. Government grants are originally recorded as deferred revenue when received upfront. After all of the conditions specified in the grants have been met, the grants are recognized as operating income. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Income taxes |
Current income taxes are provided on the basis of net income for financial reporting purposes, adjusted for income and expense items which are not assessable or deductible for income tax purposes, in accordance with the regulations of the relevant tax jurisdictions. Deferred income taxes are accounted for using an asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of temporary differences by applying enacted statutory rates applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities. The tax base of an asset or liability is the amount attributed to that asset or liability for tax purpose. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in statement of comprehensive income in the period of change. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the amount of deferred tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that some portion of, or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Uncertain tax positions The guidance on accounting for uncertainties in income taxes prescribes a more likely than not threshold for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Guidance was also provided on derecognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, accounting for income taxes in interim periods, and income tax disclosures. Significant judgment is required in evaluating the Group’s uncertain tax positions and determining its provision for income taxes. The Group recognizes interests and penalties, if any, under accrued expenses and other current liabilities on its balance sheet and under other expenses in its statements of comprehensive income. The Group did not recognize any significant interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017. As of December 31, 2016 and 2017, the Group did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Statutory reserves |
The Group’s subsidiaries and VIEs established in the PRC are required to make appropriations to certain non-distributable reserve funds. In accordance with the laws applicable to China’s Foreign Investment Enterprises, the Group’s subsidiaries registered as wholly-owned foreign enterprises have to make appropriations from its after-tax profit (as determined under the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises as promulgated by the Ministry of Finance of the People’s Republic of China (“PRC GAAP”)) to reserve funds including general reserve fund, and staff bonus and welfare fund. The appropriation to the general reserve fund must be at least 10% of the after-tax profits calculated in accordance with PRC GAAP. Appropriation is not required if the reserve fund has reached 50% of the registered capital of the company. Appropriation to the staff bonus and welfare fund is at the company’s discretion. In addition, in accordance with the Company Laws of the PRC, the VIEs of the Company registered as PRC domestic companies must make appropriations from its after-tax profit as determined under the PRC GAAP to non-distributable reserve funds including a statutory surplus fund and a discretionary surplus fund. The appropriation to the statutory surplus fund must be at least 10% of the after-tax profits as determined under the PRC GAAP. Appropriation is not required if the surplus fund has reached 50% of the registered capital of the company. Appropriation to the discretionary surplus fund is made at the discretion of the company. The use of the general reserve fund, statutory surplus fund and discretionary surplus fund are restricted to the offsetting of losses or increasing capital of the respective company. The staff bonus and welfare fund is a liability in nature and is restricted to fund payments of special bonus to staff and for the collective welfare of employees. All these reserves are not allowed to be transferred to the Company in terms of cash dividends, loans or advances, nor can they be distributed except under liquidation. During the year ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, appropriations to general reserve fund and statutory surplus fund amounted to RMB38, RMB2,350 and RMB3,861, respectively. |

| Dividends |
Dividends are recognized when declared. No dividends on common shares were declared for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively. The Group does not have any present plan to pay any dividends on common shares in the foreseeable future. The Group currently intends to retain the available funds and any future earnings to operate and expand its business. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Income per share |
Basic income per share is computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period under measurement. Diluted income per share is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and potential common shares. Potential common shares result from the assumed exercise of outstanding share options, restricted shares and restricted share units or other potentially dilutive equity instruments, when they are dilutive under the treasury stock method or the if-converted method. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Comprehensive income |
Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of the Company during a period arising from transactions and other events and circumstances excluding transactions resulting from investments by shareholders and distributions to shareholders. Comprehensive income is reported in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Accumulated other comprehensive income/loss of the Group includes the unrealized gain of available-for-sale securities and the foreign currency translation adjustments. |

| Recently issued accounting pronouncements |
In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, which simplifies the presentation of deferred income taxes by requiring deferred tax assets and liabilities to be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. The amendments in this update are effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. Additionally, the new guidance may be applied either prospectively to all deferred tax liabilities and assets or retrospectively to all periods presented. The Company has applied this guidance retrospectively to all period presented. Following the adoption of this guidance in 2017, RMB107,309 of current deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2016 was reclassified to non-current assets. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09 (“ASU 2016-09”): Compensation – Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which relates to the accounting for employee share-based payments. This standard addresses several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions, including: (a) income tax consequences; (b) classification of awards as either equity or liabilities; and (c) classification on the statement of cash flows; (d) accounting for forfeitures of share-based payments. This standard has been effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this standard has no material impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements. In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 will eliminate transaction-specific and industry-specific revenue recognition guidance under current U.S. GAAP and replace it with a principle-based approach for determining revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 will require that companies recognize revenues based on the value of transferred goods or services as they occur in the contract. The ASU also will require additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, which defers by one year ASU 2014-09’s effective date. The amendment will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted only for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, which amends the principal-versus-agent implementation guidance and illustrations in the Board’s new revenue standard (ASC 606). The amendments in this update clarify the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. When another party, along with the reporting entity, is involved in providing goods or services to a customer, an entity is required to determine whether the nature of its promise is to provide that good or service to the customer (as a principal) or to arrange for the good or service to be provided to the customer by the other party (as an agent). The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company has set up an implementation team to analyze each of the Group’s revenue streams including revenues from live streaming, online games, membership and other revenue streams in accordance with the new revenue standard to determine the impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company has completed the evaluation and assessment of its adoption of ASC 606 and there are no significant implementation matters yet to be addressed. Based on the Company’s assessment, the adoption of the new revenue standard will not have a material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements. The new revenue standard may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of adoption. The Company will apply the new revenue standard from January 1, 2018 on a modified retrospective basis. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The amendments in this Update make targeted improvements to generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) as follows: 1) Require equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. However, an entity may choose to measure equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. 2) Simplify the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment. When a qualitative assessment indicates that impairment exists, an entity is required to measure the investment at fair value. 3) Eliminate the requirement to disclose the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost for entities that are not public business entities. 4) Eliminate the requirement for public business entities to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet. 5) Require public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes. 6) Require an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments. 7) Require separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset (that is, securities or loans and receivables) on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements. 8) Clarify that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities in combination with the entity’s other deferred tax assets. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company will apply the new standard beginning January 1, 2018 and recognize the changes in fair value for all equity investments measured at fair value through net income (loss). For investments in equity securities lacking of readily determinable fair values, the Company will elect to use the measurement alternative defined as cost, less impairments, adjusted by observable price changes. The Company anticipates that the adoption of ASU 2016-01 will increase the volatility of its other income (expense), net, as a result of the remeasurement of its equity securities upon the occurrence of observable price changes and impairments. Following the adoption of this guidance in 2018, RMB87,802 will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to retained earnings. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02: Leases (Topic 842). The core principle of Topic 842 is that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases. All leases create an asset and a liability for the lessee in accordance with FASB Concepts Statement No. 6, Elements of Financial Statements, and, therefore, recognition of those lease assets and lease liabilities represents an improvement over previous GAAP, which did not require lease assets and lease liabilities to be recognized for most leases. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the standard on its consolidated financial statements. In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13: Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), which requires entities to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This replaces the existing incurred loss model and is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early application will be permitted for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the standard on its consolidated financial statements. In August 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-15: Statement of Cash Flows – Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which clarifies the presentation and classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments in the statement of cash flows. This guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. Based on the Company’s assessment, the adoption of the new standard will not have a material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements. In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, Income Taxes: Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory (Topic 740). This standard will require entities to recognize the income tax consequences of intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory at the time of transfer. This standard requires a modified retrospective approach to adoption. ASU 2016-16 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 31, 2018. The Company does not expect ASU 2016-16 to have a material impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In November 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. The guidance requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim period within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The standard should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. Based on the Company’s assessment, the adoption of the new standard will not have a material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements. In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The standard should be applied prospectively on or after the effective date. Based on the Company’s assessment, the adoption of the new standard will not have a material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements. In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-04: Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The guidance removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation. A goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. The guidance should be adopted on a prospective basis for the annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the standard on its consolidated financial statements. In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, "Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Scope of Modification Accounting", which clarifies and reduces both (1) diversity in practice and (2) cost and complexity when applying the guidance in Topic 718, to a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption is permitted. Based on the Company’s assessment, the adoption of the new standard will not have a material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements. |

| Schedule of goodwill |
(i) In June 2016, the Group disposed of 60% equity interest of Beifu and ceased to consolidate Beifu as a subsidiary. Goodwill of RMB19,354 was derecognized in the segment of YY Live (Note 4). In December 2016, the Group disposed 33.86% equity interest of Xingxue and ceased to consolidate Xingxue as a subsidiary. Goodwill of RMB100,382 was derecognized in the segment of 100 Education upon this disposal (Note 4). (ii) The Group performs its annual goodwill impairment test of each reporting unit as of October 1, or more frequently, if certain events or circumstances warrant. Events or changes in circumstances which might indicate potential impairment in goodwill include the entity-specific factors, including, but not limited to, stock price volatility, market capitalization relative to net book value, and projected revenue, market growth and operating results. In December 2016, the Group has identified impairment indicator for 100-Online Education Technology (Beijing) Co., Ltd.(“100-Online”) as well as impairment indicator for Bilin Online. Based on the results of the impairment assessment, an impairment charge of RMB13,804 for 100-Online and an impairment charge of RMB3,861 for Bilin Online were recognized, respectively. In December 2017, the Group has identified impairment indicator for Guangzhou Zhuque Information Technology Co., Ltd. (“Zhuque”). Based on the results of the impairment assessment, an impairment charge of RMB2,527 for Zhuque was recognized. The above goodwill impairment assessments on 100-Online, Bilin Online and Zhuque adopted the income approach and considered a combination of factors, including, but not limited to, market conditions, expected future cash flows, growth rates and discount rates, which required the Group to make certain estimates and assumptions regarding industry economic factors and future profitability of the business. |

- Definition Tabular disclosure of temporary equity. Temporary equity is a security with redemption features that are outside the control of the issuer, is not classified as an asset or liability in conformity with GAAP, and is not mandatorily redeemable. Includes any type of security that is redeemable at a fixed or determinable price or on a fixed or determinable date or dates, is redeemable at the option of the holder, or has conditions for redemption which are not solely within the control of the issuer. If convertible, the issuer does not control the actions or events necessary to issue the maximum number of shares that could be required to be delivered under the conversion option if the holder exercises the option to convert the stock to another class of equity. If the security is a warrant or a rights issue, the warrant or rights issue is considered to be temporary equity if the issuer cannot demonstrate that it would be able to deliver upon the exercise of the option by the holder in all cases. Includes stock with put option held by ESOP and stock redeemable by holder only in the event of a change in control of the issuer. Reference 1: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef

(1) The weighted average number of common shares outstanding which could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future related to the 2019 Convertible Senior Notes was 72,267,200 and 18,202,301 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2017 respectively. The 2019 Convertible Senior Notes were included in the computation of diluted earnings per share in 2017 and 2016 because the inclusion of such instrument would be dilutive, while it was excluded in 2015 because the inclusion of such instrument would be anti-dilutive. |

Where the quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, the Level 1 input is the quoted price of an identical liability when traded as an asset.

Such securities are reported at fair value; unrealized gains (losses) related to Available-for-sale Securities are excluded from earnings and reported in a separate component of shareholders' equity (other comprehensive income), unless the Available-for-sale security is designated as a hedge or is determined to have had an other than temporary decline in fair value below its amortized cost basis. All or a portion of the unrealized holding gain (loss) of an Available-for-sale security that is designated as being hedged in a fair value hedge is recognized in earnings during the period of the hedge, as are other than temporary declines in fair value below the cost basis for investments in equity securities and debt securities that an entity intends to sell or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell before the recovery of its amortized cost basis. Other than temporary declines in fair value below the cost basis for debt securities categorized as Available-for-sale that an entity does not intend to sell and for which it is not more likely than not that the entity will be required to sell before the recovery of its amortized cost basis are bifurcated into credit losses and losses related to all other factors. Other than temporary declines in fair value below cost basis related to credit losses are recognized in earnings, and losses related to all other factors are recognized in other comprehensive income.
