Raising Guidance

Since our last update as of May 10, 2021, up until July 31, 2021, there have been further conversions of more than US$423.3 million aggregate principal amount of our convertible notes outstanding.

As of July 31, 2021, we had 537,909,531 ordinary shares issued and outstanding, and approximately US$32.5 million, US$402.7 million and US$1.15 billion principal amount of the 2023 notes, 2024 notes and 2.375% convertible senior notes due 2025 remaining outstanding, respectively.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2021 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2020

Revenue

Our total GAAP revenue increased by 158.6% to US$2.3 billion in the second quarter of 2021 from US$882.0 million in the second quarter of 2020. The increase was mainly driven by the growth in each of the segments detailed as follows:

  • Digital Entertainment: GAAP revenue increased by 166.8% to US$1.0 billion in the second quarter of 2021 from US$383.9 million in the second quarter of 2020. This increase was primarily due to the increase in our active user base as well as the deepened paying user penetration, and in particular, the continued success of our self-developed game Free Fire.
  • E-commerce and other services: GAAP revenue increased by 174.1% to US$999.7 million in the second quarter of 2021 from US$364.7 million in the second quarter of 2020. This increase was primarily driven by the growth in the scale of our e-commerce marketplace, and increase in each of its revenue streams, including transaction-based fees, value-added services, and advertising, as we continue to better support our users’ needs with new features and programs.
  • Sales of goods: GAAP revenue increased by 92.4% to US$256.6 million in the second quarter of 2021 from US$133.4 million in the second quarter of 2020, primarily due to the increase in our product offerings.

Cost of Revenue

Our total cost of revenue increased by 98.1% to US$1.3 billion in the second quarter of 2021 from US$681.2 million in the second quarter of 2020.

  • Digital Entertainment: Cost of revenue increased by 87.0% to US$292.7 million in the second quarter of 2021 from US$156.5 million in the second quarter of 2020. The increase was largely in line with the increase in our digital entertainment revenue. Improvement in gross profit margins was largely due to higher revenue contribution from our self-developed game.
  • E-commerce and other services: Cost of revenue for our e-commerce and other services segment combined increased by 110.3% to US$816.7 million in the second quarter of 2021 from US$388.3 million in the second quarter of 2020. The increase was primarily due to higher costs of the logistics and other value-added services that we provide to our users, and other costs incurred, in each case driven by the growth of our e-commerce marketplace. Improvement in gross profit margins was mainly due to improvement in our marketplace take-rate and our cost efficiency as we continue to enhance our service offerings.
  • Cost of goods sold: Cost of goods sold increased by 76.1% to US$240.2 million in the second quarter of 2021 from US$136.4 million in the second quarter of 2020. The increase was largely in line with the increase in our revenue from sales of goods.

Other Operating Income

Our other operating income increased by 120.8% to US$72.0 million in the second quarter of 2021 from US$32.6 million in the second quarter of 2020. The increase was mainly attributable to the rebates from e-commerce related logistics services providers.

Sales and Marketing Expenses

Our total sales and marketing expenses increased by 138.5% to US$921.4 million in the second quarter of 2021 from US$386.3 million in the second quarter of 2020.

  • Digital Entertainment: Sales and marketing expenses increased by 160.3% to US$82.0 million in the second quarter of 2021 from US$31.5 million in the second quarter of 2020. The increase was primarily due to higher online marketing costs and esports event expenses as we continue to deepen the engagement with our gamers’ community.



  • E-commerce: Sales and marketing expenses increased by 141.9% to US$649.2 million in the second quarter of 2021 from US$268.4 million in the second quarter of 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to the ramping up of marketing incentives and online marketing efforts, especially during the holiday seasons, as we continue investing in capturing market opportunities in full.



  • Digital Financial Services: Sales and marketing expenses increased by 101.8% to US$166.3 million in the second quarter of 2021 from US$82.4 million in the second quarter of 2020. The increase was mainly due to our efforts to promote adoption of our mobile wallet services.

General and Administrative Expenses

Our general and administrative expenses increased by 68.1% to US$243.0 million in the second quarter of 2021 from US$144.5 million in the second quarter of 2020. This increase was primarily due to higher staff compensation and benefit costs from increased staff to support the business growth, office facilities and related expenses, as well as credit losses for our digital financial services business.

Research and Development Expenses

Our research and development expenses increased by 129.0% to US$172.6 million in the second quarter of 2021 from US$75.3 million in the second quarter of 2020, primarily due to the increase in research and development staff force.

Non-operating Income or Losses, Net

Non-operating income or losses mainly consist of interest income, interest expense, investment gain (loss) and foreign exchange gain (loss). We recorded a net non-operating loss of US$25.1 million in the second quarter of 2021, compared to a net non-operating income of US$7.6 million in the second quarter of 2020. Our non-operating loss in the second quarter of 2021 was primarily due to interest expenses on our outstanding convertible notes.

Income Tax Expense

We had a net income tax expense of US$75.2 million and US$27.8 million in the second quarter of 2021 and 2020, respectively. The income tax expense in the second quarter of 2021 was primarily due to corporate income tax and withholding tax expenses incurred by our digital entertainment segment.

Net Loss

As a result of the foregoing, we had net losses of US$433.7 million and US$393.5 million in the second quarter of 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Net Loss Excluding Share-based Compensation

Net loss excluding share-based compensation, was US$321.2 million and US$317.7 million in the second quarter of 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we use the following non-GAAP financial measures to help evaluate our operating performance:

  • “Net loss excluding share-based compensation” represents net loss before share-based compensation. This financial measure helps to identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of certain expenses that are included in net loss. The use of this measure has its limitations in that it does not include all items that impact the net loss or income for the period, and share-based compensation are significant expenses.
  • “Net loss excluding share-based compensation attributable to Sea Limited’s ordinary shareholders” represents net loss attributable to Sea Limited’s ordinary shareholders before share-based compensation. This financial measure helps to identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of certain expenses that are included in net loss. The use of this measure has its limitations in that it does not include all items that impact the net loss or income for the period, and share-based compensation are significant expenses.
  • “Basic and diluted loss per share based on net loss excluding share-based compensation attributable to Sea Limited’s ordinary shareholders” represents net loss excluding share-based compensation attributable to Sea Limited’s ordinary shareholders divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.
  • “Adjusted EBITDA” for our digital entertainment segment represents operating income (loss) before share-based compensation plus (a) depreciation and amortization expenses, and (b) the net effect of changes in deferred revenue and its related cost for our digital entertainment segment. We believe that the segment adjusted EBITDA helps to identify underlying trends in our operating results, enhancing their understanding of the past performance and future prospects.
  • “Adjusted EBITDA” for our e-commerce segment, digital financial services segment and other services segment represents operating income (loss) before share-based compensation plus depreciation and amortization expenses. We believe that the segment adjusted EBITDA helps to identify underlying trends in our operating results, enhancing their understanding of the past performance and future prospects.
  • “Total adjusted EBITDA” represents the sum of adjusted EBITDA of all our segments combined, plus unallocated expenses. We believe that the total adjusted EBITDA helps to identify underlying trends in our operating results, enhancing their understanding of the past performance and future prospects.

These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. None of the above financial measures should be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to revenue, net loss/income, or any other measure of performance or as an indicator of our operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures to Sea’s data. We compensate for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to their nearest U.S. GAAP financial measures, all of which should be considered when evaluating our performance. We encourage you to review our financial information in its entirety and not rely on any single financial measure.

The tables below present selected financial information of our reporting segments, the non-GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to GAAP financial measures, and the related reconciliations between the financial measures. Amounts are expressed in thousands of US dollars (“$”) except for number of shares & per share data.
