New Game Launches Critical for NetEase's Shares Re-rating -- Market Talk

0752 GMT - New game launches will be key for the re-rating of NetEase's shares, HSBC analysts say in a note. The bank now expects "Ananta" to be launched in early 2027 instead of 4Q this year and the next catalyst will be "Sea of Remnants," which could be launched in the summer. The brightest spot from its 1Q results is the strong gross margin expansion, thanks to the rising mix of self-developed PC games and mobile channel cost optimization, the analysts say. They think the revenue beat was likely driven by the recognition of deferred revenue accumulated in the past two quarters. HSBC lowers its target price for NetEase's ADRs to US$162.00 from US$170.00 due to the likely later-than-expected "Ananta" release. Its ADR ended 2.1% lower at US$114.34. (sherry.qin@wsj.com)
