Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results
Total revenues reached RMB7.8 billion (US$1.1 billion), increasing 17% year over year.
Membership services revenue was RMB4.9 billion (US$682.2 million), increasing 15% year over year, primarily attributable to the increase in the number of total subscribing members and our continuous efforts in refining operations to improve monetization capabilities. The average daily number of total subscribing members increased from 98.3 million for the second quarter in 2022 to 111.2 million for the second quarter in 2023. The number of total subscribing members reached 109.5 million as of June 30, 2023, compared to 95.6 million as of June 30, 2022.
Online advertising services revenue was RMB1.5 billion (US$206.2 million), increasing 25% year over year. The increase was primarily driven by the growth of performance-based advertising business and, to a lesser extent, the growth in the brand advertising business.
Content distribution revenue was RMB553.3 million (US$76.3 million), increasing 15% year over year, primarily driven by the increase in average unit price of barter transactions.
Other revenues were RMB807.0 million (US$111.3 million), increasing 16% year over year, primarily driven by the revenue derived from third-party cooperation, partially offset by the deconsolidation of live broadcasting business.
Cost of revenues was RMB5.8 billion (US$796.3 million), increasing 10% year over year, primarily driven by higher content costs. Content costs as a component of cost of revenues were RMB4.1 billion (US$571.2 million), increasing 7% year over year. The increase in content cost was primarily driven by higher number of original dramas and variety shows launched during the quarter.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were RMB979.0 million (US$135.0 million), increasing 22% year over year, primarily due to higher marketing spending.
Research and development expenses were RMB439.0 million (US$60.5 million), decreasing 9% year over year, primarily due to the decrease in personnel-related compensation expenses.
Operating income was RMB610.4 million (US$84.2 million), compared to operating income of RMB125.8 million in the same period in 2022. Operating income margin was 8%, compared to operating income margin of 2% in the same period in 2022. Non-GAAP operating income was RMB786.4 million (US$108.4 million) and non-GAAP operating income margin was 10%, compared to non-GAAP operating income of RMB343.8 million and non-GAAP operating income margin of 5% in the same period in 2022.
Total other expense was RMB234.6 million (US$32.4 million), compared to total other expense of RMB291.0 million during the same period of 2022. The year over year variance was primarily due to increased interest expenses and the foreign exchange loss due to the fluctuation of exchange rate between Renminbi and the U.S. dollar, partially offset by higher interest income and less loss from equity method investment.
Income before income taxes was RMB375.8 million (US$51.8 million), compared to loss before income taxes of RMB165.2 million in the same period in 2022.
Income tax expense was RMB7.9 million (US$1.1 million), compared to income tax expense of RMB36.2 million in the same period in 2022.
Net income attributable to iQIYI was RMB365.2 million (US$50.4 million), compared to net loss attributable to iQIYI of RMB214.0 million in the same period in 2022. Diluted net income attributable to iQIYI per ADS was RMB0.37 (US$0.05) for the second quarter of 2023, compared to diluted net loss attributable to iQIYI per ADS of RMB0.28 in the same period of 2022. Non-GAAP net income attributable to iQIYI was RMB594.7 million (US$82.0 million), compared to non-GAAP net income attributable to iQIYI of RMB78.3 million in the same period in 2022. Non-GAAP diluted net income attributable to iQIYI per ADS was RMB0.61 (US$0.08), compared to non-GAAP diluted net income attributable to iQIYI per ADS of RMB0.10 in the same period of 2022.
As of June 30, 2023, the Company had cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term investments and long-term restricted cash included in prepayments and other assets of RMB6.1 billion (US$840.8 million). In the second quarter of 2023, the Company had repurchased a total principal amount of US$133.6 million of its 4% convertible senior notes due 2026 for cash.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement iQIYI’s consolidated financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, iQIYI uses the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating income margin, non-GAAP net income attributable to iQIYI, non-GAAP diluted net income attributable to iQIYI per ADS and free cash flow. The presentation of the non-GAAP financial measure is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.
iQIYI believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its operating performance by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of its business operating results, such as operating performance excluding non-cash charges or non-operating in nature. The Company believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to the non-GAAP financial measures in assessing its performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparisons to iQIYI’s historical operating performance. The Company believes the non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making. A limitation of using these non-GAAP financial measures is that the non-GAAP measures exclude certain items that have been and will continue to be for the foreseeable future a significant component in the Company’s results of operations. These non-GAAP financial measures presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures to the Company’s data.
Non-GAAP operating income represents operating income excluding share-based compensation expenses, amortization and impairment of intangible assets resulting from business combinations.
Non-GAAP net income attributable to iQIYI, Inc. represents net income attributable to iQIYI, Inc. excluding share-based compensation expenses, amortization and impairment of intangible assets resulting from business combinations, disposal gain or loss, impairment of long-term investments, fair value change of long-term investments, adjusted for related income tax effects. iQIYI’s share of equity method investments for these non-GAAP reconciling items, primarily amortization and impairment of intangible assets not on the investees’ books, accretion of their redeemable non-controlling interests, and the gain or loss associated with the issuance of shares by the investees at a price higher or lower than the carrying value per shares, adjusted for related income tax effects, are also excluded.
