Aug 15

0404 GMT - NetEase's game gross receipts are likely to improve sequentially in 3Q on major game updates, Daiwa analysts say in a research note. Major updates of legacy titles such as "Once Human" and "Identity V" happened in July, with strong momentum heading into 3Q, they say. Given the low base in 2H 2024 due to the adjustments for "Fantasy Westward Journey" and "Eggy Party," Daiwa expects revenue growth in online games to accelerate to 16.5% on year in 3Q. Meanwhile, the recently launched "Marvel Mystic Mayhem" still has a chance to improve its gross receipts, as NetEase plans content updates every six weeks to maintain its one million player base, they add. Daiwa raises its target price on the Chinese videogame company to HK$260.00 from HK$235.00 while keeping a buy rating. Shares are last at HK$204.80. (sherry.qin@wsj.com)
