See the last page for disclaimer Page 1 of 13 [Table_PageHeader] Tencent (00700 HK) Industry Update ] 1 r a M t h g i R _ e l b a T [ We believe that the online mobile games industry in China has been recovering from regulation headwinds. According to CNG, a games research company, China mobile games revenue grew 18.8% yoy in 1H19, 5.9 ppts higher than that in 1H18, reaching RMB75.31 billion. Growth was mainly driven by outperforming revenue from both existing titles and newly released games in 1H19, such as Perfect World operated by Tencent. On the other hand, the total amount of new licensed games approved by the State Administration of Press, Publications, Radio, Film and Television (SAPPRFT) declined from January to July and no new game licenses were approved in May 2019. 12 Tencent games have been approved by the SAPPRFT for new 26 August 2019 game licenses from January to July this year. We expect that the total amount of approved licensed games will decrease compared to that in 2017 due to the enhancing content control levels in licensed game control standards; we believe that the top game companies will be the major beneficiaries due to higher quality game content and strong financial support. Strong China mobile game revenue is expected to rally in 2H19. In addition, we believe with the expected limited new game supply in the following quarters, most game companies are expected to continue to update existing games in order to increase the lifespan of each game and monetization cycle. In terms of the PC game market, China PC game revenue grew 2.3% yoy in 1H19, reaching RMB32.3 billion, which was half that of mobile games in the same period.

Up to 2019 first half, China advertising market dropped by 8.8/% yoy, compared to 9.3% for the preceding same period. Internet advertising dropped Tencent by 4.3% yoy, compared to 5.4% for the preceding same period. We believe the slump in internet advertising growth was mainly due to advertisers optimizing their marketing budget under the economic downturn. According to iResearch, total amount of game advertising increased steadily in 1Q19 but slightly decreased in 2Q19, due to the restart of game license granting but the limited supply of new games. On the other side of the coin, we believe that the game industry is expected to partially support internet advertising market growth due to expected recovery of the industry from policy headwinds.
