Three Months Ended December 31, 2020 Compared to Three Months Ended December 31, 2019
Revenue
Our total GAAP revenue increased by 101.6% to US$1.6 billion in the fourth quarter of 2020 from US$777.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2019. The increase was mainly driven by the growth in each of the segments detailed as follows:
- Digital Entertainment: GAAP revenue increased by 71.6% to US$693.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 from US$404.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2019. 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 121.4% to US$656.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 from US$296.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2019. This increase was primarily driven by the growth of our e-commerce marketplace, and positive developments in each of our marketplace revenue streams – transaction-based fees, value-added services, and advertising. It is a result of our commitment to continuously enhance our service offerings as we seek to create greater value for our platform users.
- Sales of goods: GAAP revenue increased by 182.7% to US$216.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 from US$76.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2019, primarily due to the increase in our product offerings.

Our total cost of revenue increased by 101.6% to US$1.0 billion in the fourth quarter of 2020 from US$512.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2019.
- Digital Entertainment: Cost of revenue increased by 49.8% to US$208.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 from US$139.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2019. The increase was largely in line with revenue growth in our digital entertainment business.

The increase was primarily due to higher expenses associated with our logistics and other value-added services that we provide to our users, and other costs incurred in line with the growth of our e-commerce marketplace. Improvement in gross profit margins was mainly due to take-rate growth as we continue to roll out tools to better serve our users’ needs.
- Cost of goods sold: Cost of goods sold increased by 170.9% to US$212.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 from US$78.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2019. The increase was largely in line with the increase in our product offerings.
Other Operating Income
Our other operating income increased by 1,108.6% to US$72.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 from US$6.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2019. The increase in our other operating income was mainly due to the rebates from e-commerce related logistic services provided by third parties.

- Cost of goods sold: Cost of goods sold increased by 155.8% to US$580.7 million for the full year ended December 31, 2020 from US$227.0 million for the full year ended December 31, 2019. The increase was largely in line with the increase in our product offerings.
Other Operating Income
Our other operating income increased by 1,093.5% to US$189.6 million for the full year ended December 31, 2020 from US$15.9 million for the full year ended December 31, 2019. The increase in our other operating income was mainly due to the rebates from e-commerce related logistic services provided by third parties.
Sales and Marketing Expenses
Our total sales and marketing expenses increased by 88.8% to US$1.8 billion for the full year ended December 31, 2020 from US$969.5 million for the full year ended December 31, 2019. The table below sets forth the breakdown of the sales and marketing expenses of our major reporting segments. Amounts are expressed in thousands of US dollars (“$”).

The increase was primarily due to higher online marketing costs as we continue to deepen the engagement with our gaming community.
- E-commerce: Sales and marketing expenses increased by 59.3% to US$1.2 billion for the full year ended December 31, 2020 from US$765.5 million for the full year ended December 31, 2019.

General and Administrative Expenses
Our general and administrative expenses increased by 70.3% to US$657.2 million for the full year ended December 31, 2020 from US$385.9 million for the full year ended December 31, 2019. This increase was primarily due to higher staff compensation and benefit costs as well as provision for credit losses for our digital financial services business.
Research and Development Expenses
Our research and development expenses increased by 125.9% to US$353.8 million for the full year ended December 31, 2020 from US$156.6 million for the full year ended December 31, 2019, primarily due to the increase in research and development staff force.
Non-operating Income or Losses, Net
Non-operating income or losses consist of interest income, interest expense, investment gain (loss), fair value change for the 2017 convertible notes and foreign exchange gain (loss). We recorded a net non-operating loss of US$179.9 million for the full year ended December 31, 2020, compared to a net non-operating loss of US$477.4 million for the full year ended December 31, 2019. Our non-operating loss for the full year ended December 31, 2020 was primarily due to interest expense on convertible notes. Our non-operating loss for the full year ended December 31, 2019 was primarily due to a fair value loss of US$472.9 million arising from the fair value accounting treatment for the 2017 convertible notes.
Income Tax Expense
We had a net income tax expense of US$141.6 million and US$85.9 million for the full year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The income tax expense for the full year ended December 31, 2020 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$1.6 billion and US$1.5 billion for the full year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Net Loss Excluding Share-based Compensation and Changes in Fair Value of the 2017 Convertible Notes
Net loss excluding share-based compensation and changes in fair value of the 2017 convertible notes, was US$1.3 billion and US$867.8 million for the full year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share Based on Net Loss Excluding Share-based Compensation and Changes in Fair Value of the 2017 Convertible Notes Attributable to Sea Limited’s Ordinary Shareholders

Forward-Looking Statements
This announcement contains forward-looking statements. These statements are made under the “safe harbor” provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as “will,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “future,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” “confident,” “guidance,” and similar statements. Among other things, statements that are not historical facts, including statements about Sea’s beliefs and expectations, the business, financial and market outlook, and projections from its management in this announcement, as well as Sea’s strategic and operational plans, contain forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties. A number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement, including but not limited to the following: Sea’s goals and strategies; its future business development, financial condition, financial results, and results of operations; the growth in, and market size of, the digital entertainment, e-commerce and digital financial services industries in the markets where it operates, including segments within those industries; changes in its revenue, costs or expenditures; its ability to continue to source, develop and offer new and attractive online games and to offer other engaging digital entertainment content; the growth of its digital entertainment, e-commerce and digital financial services businesses and platforms; the growth in its user base, level of user engagement, and monetization; its ability to continue to develop new technologies and/or upgrade its existing technologies; growth and trends of its markets and competition in its industries; government policies and regulations relating to its industries; general economic and business conditions in its markets; and the impact of widespread health developments, including the recent global coronavirus pandemic, and the responses thereto (such as voluntary and in some cases, mandatory quarantines as well as shut downs and other restrictions on travel and commercial, social and other activities) which could materially and adversely affect, among other things, the business and manufacturing activities of its sellers, merchants and logistics providers, the global supply chain including those of its sellers’ and merchants’, and consumer discretionary spending.

All information provided in this press release and in the attachments is as of the date of this press release, and Sea undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, except as required under applicable law.
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 and changes in fair value of the 2017 convertible notes” represents net loss before share-based compensation and changes in fair value of convertible notes. 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 and changes in fair value of convertible notes are significant expenses.
- “Net loss excluding share-based compensation and changes in fair value of the 2017 convertible notes attributable to Sea Limited’s ordinary shareholders” represents net loss attributable to Sea Limited’s ordinary shareholders before share-based compensation and changes in fair value of convertible notes. 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 and changes in fair value of convertible notes are significant expenses.
- “Basic and diluted loss per share based on net loss excluding share-based compensation and changes in fair value of the 2017 convertible notes attributable to Sea Limited’s ordinary shareholders” represents net loss excluding share-based compensation and changes in fair value of the 2017 convertible notes 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.
