Cost of revenue increased for the three months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to higher direct costs generally consistent with increases in the related lines of revenue, higher personnel costs including benefits expenses from an increase in employee headcount in the trailing twelve months, higher internal licenses and fees from increased deployments and prices, and a rise in amortization from capital development projects placed into service in the trailing twelve months.Research and development expense increased for the three months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to higher personnel costs (net of capitalization) including benefits expenses from an increase in employee headcount in the trailing twelve months.Selling, general, and administrative expense decreased for the three months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to the decrease in non-recurring costs when compared to the prior fiscal year quarter.

Effective tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, were 24.0% and 23.7%, respectively.
According to Mimi Carsley, CFO and Treasurer, “For the first quarter of the fiscal year, revenue and operating margins were aligned with our plan and expectations and we continue to expect stronger performance in the second half of our fiscal year. Our private cloud revenue grew over 11% and processing services continued to drive strong revenue growth at over 6%, each contributing to our overall revenue expansion of over 5% and operating income increase of 2% on a non-GAAP basis.”
6Operating margin is calculated by dividing operating income by revenue. Operating margin plus operating expense components as a percentage of total revenue may not equal 100% due to rounding.

*The VEDIP program expense for the fiscal three months ended September 30, 2024, was related to a Company voluntary separation program offered to certain eligible employees beginning in July 2023.
**GAAP revenue is comprised of services and support and processing revenues (see page 2). Reducing services and support revenue by deconversion revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023 which was $3,697 for the current fiscal year quarter and $4,136 for the prior fiscal year quarter, results in non-GAAP adjusted services and support revenue growth of 4.4% quarter over quarter. There were no non-GAAP adjustments to processing revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024, or 2023.
***Non-GAAP adjusted operating margin is calculated by dividing non-GAAP adjusted operating income by non-GAAP adjusted revenue.
****The tax impact of adjustments is calculated using a tax rate of 24% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023. The tax rate for non-GAAP adjustment items takes a broad look at our recurring tax adjustments and applies them to non-GAAP revenue that does not have its own specific tax impacts.
The tables below show the segment break-out of revenue and cost of revenue for each period presented, as adjusted for the items above, and include a reconciliation to non-GAAP adjusted operating income presented above.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) is the term used to refer to the standard framework of guidelines for financial accounting in the United States. GAAP includes the standards, conventions, and rules accountants follow in recording and summarizing transactions in the preparation of financial statements. In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with GAAP, we have provided certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted revenue, adjusted operating income, adjusted segment income, adjusted cost of revenue, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted operating margin, adjusted segment income margin, non-GAAP earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (non-GAAP EBITDA), free cash flow, return on invested capital (ROIC), non-GAAP adjusted net income, and non-GAAP earnings per share (EPS).
We believe non-GAAP financial measures help investors better understand the underlying fundamentals and true operations of our business. Adjusted revenue, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted segment income, adjusted segment income margin, adjusted cost of revenue, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted net income, and non-GAAP EPS eliminate one-time deconversion revenue and associated costs and the effects of the VEDIP program expense, which management believes are not indicative of the Company’s operating performance. Such adjustments give investors further insight into our performance. Non-GAAP EBITDA is defined as net income attributable to the Company before the effect of interest expense, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, adjusted for net income before the effect of interest expense, taxes, depreciation, and amortization attributable to eliminated one-time deconversions and the VEDIP program expense. Free cash flow is defined as net cash from operating activities, less capitalized expenditures, internal use software, and capitalized software, plus proceeds from the sale of assets. ROIC is defined as net income divided by average invested capital, which is the average of beginning and ending long-term debt and stockholders’ equity for a given period. Management believes that non-GAAP EBITDA is an important measure of the Company’s overall operating performance and excludes certain costs and other transactions that management deems one time or non-operational in nature; free cash flow is useful to measure the funds generated in a given period that are available for debt service requirements and strategic capital decisions; and ROIC is a measure of the Company’s allocation efficiency and effectiveness of its invested capital. For these reasons, management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures in its assessment and management of the Company’s performance.
Non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and therefore, are unlikely to be comparable with calculations of similar measures for other companies.
Any non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in context with the GAAP financial presentation and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP measures. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to related GAAP measures are included.

This targeted approach yielded strong results in core developed countries, where MAUs grew 3.4% year over year and 3.7% quarter over quarter, and paying users increased 9.1% year over year.

For example, Bigo Live fine-tuned its content recommendation algorithms to better facilitate content sharing within same-language regions and expand cross-regional content flow between highly interactive markets.

In the last quarter, Bigo Live successfully hosted the third season of “BIGO’s Most Talented”, featuring categories in Music, Dance and Beauty Pageantry.
