Xunlei Ltd

We commenced operations in January 2003 through the establishment of Shenzhen Xunlei, which currently, together with its various subsidiaries in the PRC, operates our Xunlei internet platform.

In February 2005, we established Xunlei Limited as our holding company in the Cayman Islands. Xunlei Limited directly owns Giganology Shenzhen, our wholly owned subsidiary in China established in June 2005. Giganology Shenzhen primarily engages in the research and development of new technologies.

Giganology Shenzhen has entered into a series of contractual arrangements with Shenzhen Xunlei and its shareholders. These contractual arrangements enable us to exercise effective control over Shenzhen Xunlei and receive substantially all of the economic benefits of Shenzhen Xunlei. As a result, Shenzhen Xunlei is our variable interest entity and we have consolidated the financial results of Shenzhen Xunlei and its subsidiaries in our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The existing principal subsidiaries of Shenzhen Xunlei include the following:

In February 2011, we established a direct wholly owned subsidiary, Xunlei Network Technologies Limited, or Xunlei Network BVI, in the British Virgin Islands. In March 2011, we established Xunlei Network Technologies Limited, or Xunlei Network HK, in Hong Kong, which is the direct wholly owned subsidiary of Xunlei Network BVI. Xunlei Network HK primarily engages in the development of computer software and advertising services.

In November 2011, we established Xunlei Computer in China, which is the direct wholly owned subsidiary of Xunlei Network HK. Xunlei Computer primarily engages in the development of computer software and information technology services.

In June 2014, we completed the initial public offering of our ADSs, which are listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol “XNET.”

In September 2014, we, through Shenzhen Xunlei Networking Technologies Co., Ltd., acquired from subsidiaries of Kingsoft Corporation Limited Kuaipan Personal and Kansunzi, both software services in support of cloud-sourced storage and sharing, and their related business and assets, for an aggregate cash consideration of US$33 million. Kuaipan Personal has recently developed into a cloud-sourced content service platform.

We are a leading cloud-based acceleration technology company in China. We operate a powerful internet platform in China based on cloud technology to enable our users to quickly access, manage, and consume digital media content on the internet. In recent years, we have expanded our products and services from PC-based devices to mobile devices in part through pre-installed acceleration products in mobile phones to further enlarge our user base and offer our users a wider range of access points. We target to deliver superior user experience in terms of ease of access, management and consumption of digital media content anywhere, anytime, and on any device.

To address deficiencies of digital media transmission over the internet in China, such as low speed and high delivery failure rates, we provide users with quick and easy access to online digital media content through core products and services below:

Xunlei Accelerator, our most popular and free product, which enables users to accelerate digital transmission over the internet and has approximately 145 million monthly unique visitors in December 2017, according to our internal record; and

Cloud acceleration subscription services, which are delivered through products such as Green Channel and Offline Accelerator and offer users premium services for speed and reliability.

Benefitting from the large user base of our core product, Xunlei Accelerator, we have further developed various value-added services or products to meet a fuller spectrum of our users’ digital media content access and consumption needs. These value-added services and products primarily include (i) cloud computing services, (ii) live video services, and (iii) online game services.

We are increasingly extending our services to mobile devices, as part of our cloud-based mobile strategies. Mobile Xunlei is becoming a popular mobile application, while bigger screen phones with enhanced storage capacity have influenced user behavior in how they access and consume digital media content on their mobile phones. This mobile application allows users to search, download and consume digital media content on their mobile devices in a user friendly way. Based on our own record, daily active user of this application was about 6.9 million as of the date of this annual report. Mobile Xunlei is also one of the most downloaded applications in its category. In the fourth quarter of 2015, we started to monetize our mobile traffic through advertising sales and generated our first mobile advertising revenues. Moreover, this mobile application supplements our existing subscriptions business, enabling us to reach a wider set of user base and to expand our services additional devices of a user who has multiple devices.

Our mobile initiatives also benefits from our relationship with Xiaomi, one of our strategic shareholders. Since 2014, we have entered into a pre-installing services agreement with a Xiaomi group company which manufactures Xiaomi phones, a well-recognized brand of smart phones in China. Pursuant to the agreement, we agree to provide our Mobile Xunlei acceleration plug-in, and the mobile phone manufacturer agrees to install such plug-in on its phones, free of charge. Such pre-installment arrangement provides mobile phone users with access to our acceleration services, which we believe enhances our ability to generate more user traffic. Our mobile acceleration software has been officially adopted by Xiaomi’s operating systems, MIUI6, MIUI7, MIUI8 and MIUI9 and the software has been installed on Xiaomi phones, including both new phones shipments and system upgrades from existing Xiaomi phones.

An important part of our strategies is to continue our innovation in crowdsourcing for idle capacity and potentially storage from users of our cloud computing services, which targets to utilize our users’ idle uplink capacity and storage by using our hardware devices. We plan for crowdsourced capacity to supply an increasing percentage of the bandwidth that we use for our own acceleration services. From the third quarter of 2015, we started to sell crowdsourced uplink capacity we collected from users under our cloud computing services to third parties. We intend to sell crowdsourced uplink capacity to more third party internet content providers with bandwidth demand. To further develop our cloud computing business and at the same time explore emerging blockchain technology, we launched our decentralized cloud computing product, OneThing Cloud, and its related LinkToken, which is renamed from OneCoin, a type of digital tickets based on blockchain technology, in 2017. OneThing Cloud is essentially a cloud-based storage and sharing device. It allows users to share their idle internet bandwidth and storage resources with our content delivery networks. By voluntarily participating in our OneThing Reward Program, users can be rewarded with LinkToken, which can be used to redeem for our products and services. The technological backbone of our products and services is our cloud acceleration technology, comprised of a proprietary file locating system and massive file index database. Our technology enables us to support greater user expansion with incremental increases in server and bandwidth costs. This technology, based on distributed computing architecture, along with our indexing technology, enables users to access content in an efficient manner.

Cloud based acceleration

We provide data transmission acceleration services based on cloud computing technology to internet users. Our cloud computing technology utilizes a network of computers hosted on the internet to store, manage, and process data, thus providing our users with acceleration in internet data transmission and improves their download success rates. We provide our acceleration services to internet users with the following products and services.

Accelerator

We launched our core product, Xunlei Accelerator, in 2004 to address deficiencies of digital media content transmission over internet in China, such as low speed and high delivery failure rates. Xunlei Accelerator allows users to accelerate digital transmission over the internet for free. Xunlei Accelerator also bridges users with diverse needs to other services we offer, such as: Xunlei Media Player, which supports both online and offline video watching, and our various online games, by recommending and providing links to these services on its user interface.

Xunlei Accelerator is designed to provide an effective digital media content transmission solution to our users. In addition to our featured transmission acceleration function, we have integrated certain features into the interface of Xunlei Accelerator to enhance the overall user experience while helping users transmit their desired content efficiently. For example, Xunlei Accelerator provides a platform to integrate other third-party plug-in applications. Users can add application tabs to create shortcuts to various services that are provided by us, third-party application developers and application venders who have business relationships with us. Xunlei Accelerator also has a task management console to allow users to track and manage their transmissions in progress, to manage and prioritize cloud-based data transmission tasks, or manage and synchronize transmitted content across multiple internet-enabled devices.

Mobile acceleration plug-in

We offer a mobile acceleration plug-in, which provides mobile device users with benefits of download speed acceleration and download success rate improvements similar to those offered by the PC-based Xunlei Accelerator. Our mobile acceleration plug-in has been adopted by Xiaomi, a Chinese smartphone maker, on its operating systems, MIUI6, MIUI7, MIUI8 and MIUI9. Xiaomi installs our mobile acceleration plug-in on all of its new phones free of charge and adds such plug-in to the existing ones via system upgrade. Xiaomi phone users thus have access to our acceleration services.

Subscription services

We charge monthly or annual fees for our premium cloud acceleration subscription services. The benefits and services within the subscription package, which typically include incrementally larger bandwidth and faster acceleration speed, are upgraded according to the VIP levels. The subscription fees generally remain unchanged for subscribers at higher VIP levels. Our cloud acceleration subscription services are delivered through the following major premium acceleration products:

Type of Services Description of Services

Green Channel This product allows our subscribers to transmit digital media files from the internet, which significantly improves speed and reliability of such transmission. This is particularly helpful when subscribers need to transmit files that are only available from slow or unreliable data transmission sources, or to transmit a group of files while having only limited internet connectivity time.

Offline Accelerator This product allows our subscribers to engage us to transmit digital media files from the internet on their behalf.

In addition to our major premium acceleration products, our product, Fast Bird, also accelerates our subscribers’ internet access by increasing the bandwidth of the network system provided by telecommunications service providers.

We adopted different strategies and various promotion programs for each VIP level. For example, when we discovered that some of our users were not aware of our subscription services, we provided users with greater exposure to our subscription services in different parts of our platform and promoted products with significant potential interests to specific users. We use our powerful digital data analysis capabilities to explore different areas of user needs previously unmet by existing functions and research and develop relevant functions based on such analysis. We offer users promotional measures, such as providing some free trials of premium acceleration services, to show the differences in the data transmission speeds to demonstrate how our premium services tremendously enhance data delivery speed and overall subscriber experience.

In order to promote customer loyalty, we may elevate the VIP levels of our subscribers if they actively engage in our services, for example, frequently participating in reviewing and rating of our products. Once upgraded to certain higher VIP levels, our subscribers may be offered additional independent accounts, internally termed as sub-accounts, at no additional charges. Such sub-accounts also allow users to access our premium acceleration services, at no additional charge.

We had a subscriber base of 4.3 million, 4.2 million and 4.3 million as of December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively. In this annual report, the number of subscribers as of a given day excludes any sub-accounts.

Mobile Xunlei

Mobile Xunlei is a mobile application that allows users to search, download and consume digital media content on their mobile devices. The monthly average daily active user of this product was about 7.5 million in 2017. We started to monetize our mobile traffic through advertising sales and generated our first mobile advertising revenues in late 2015. Since then, our mobile advertising business has grown rapidly. In 2017, our revenue generated from our mobile advertising business increased by 46.7% from US$14.5 million in 2016 to US$21.2 million in 2017.

Moreover, this mobile application also supplements our existing subscriptions business. Many of our mobile application users also became users of our PC-based Xunlei Accelerator.

Cloud computing

We launched our cloud computing project in 2014, which crowd-sources idle uplink capacity from internet users who have bought and connected our proprietary hardware, Zhuanqianbao, or ZQB, to their network router. Our ZQB devices can allocate those users’ idle uplink capacity to us for our further allocation to internet content providers. We pay users of our ZQB devices for the use of their idle uplink capacity.

To further develop our cloud computing business and at the same time explore emerging blockchain technology, we launched our decentralized cloud computing product, OneThing Cloud, in 2017. OneThing Cloud is a cloud-based storage and sharing device, which crowd-sources idle uplink capacity from our users who have bought and connected their OneThing Cloud devices to their network router. Similar to ZQB, OneThing Cloud can allocate those users’ idle computing resources to us for our further allocation to internet content providers. However, an important difference between OneThing Cloud and ZQB is that users of OneThing Cloud can voluntarily participate in OneThing Reward Program and be rewarded with LinkToken, which can be used to redeem for our products and services.

The crowd-sourced uplink capacities are valuable resources that we target to commercialize with potential customers such as streaming websites and app stores. Depending on our own needs, we also utilize those crowd-sourced uplink capacities for our business from time to time, reducing our purchase of bandwidth from traditional third party carriers.

Live video services

We launched our live video services in 2016 and adjusted our business model in 2017. Under the new business model, while viewing live online performance given by broadcasters, users may interact on real-time basis with broadcasters, purchase virtual items from us to reward broadcasters they like. Users can access our live video services through Xunlei Live website and mobile app.

Xunlei Media Player

Xunlei Media Player, which we launched in 2008, is a supplementary tool that helps to deliver a more comprehensive viewing experience of digital media content to the users of Xunlei Accelerator. Xunlei Media Player is our proprietary product that supports both online and offline play of digital media content as well as simultaneous play of digital media content while it is being transmitted by Xunlei Accelerator.

Online game services

To better serve our users, we offer online games through our online game website and purchase licenses from, or enter into revenue sharing arrangements with, game developers. Such game play platform helps raise the average spending of our subscribers. Online game players can play the games free of charge, but are offered the opportunity to purchase in-game virtual items for a fee to enhance their game-playing experience.

In light of the overall decline in the web game market and our intention to allocate more resources on the development of our cloud computing business, we streamlined our online game business by disposing of our web game business in January 2018. After the disposal, we only operate MMOGs and mobile games for our online game services.

We may also from time to time offer other ancillary services to cater to users’ needs and to supplement the major services we provide.

Mongodb Inc

Mongodb Inc Faces Significant Losses in Recent Financial Report



Mongodb Inc, a leading Software and Programming company, recently reported a disappointing financial performance for the period ending January 31, 2024. With a significant decline in revenue and widening shortfall per share, it is crucial to analyze the potential impact of these setbacks on the company's future prospects.
Revenue Decline and Shortfall:
Mongodb Inc's financial report revealed a substantial decline in revenue, plummeting by -83.553% to $59.43 million compared to the same period the previous year. Moreover, the shortfall per share widened to $-3.47 from $-0.41 in the prior year's reporting period. These alarming figures depict the company's struggle to generate sufficient income and maintain profitability, particularly when compared to the sector's overall revenue gain.

Pagerduty Inc

Serious headline:PagerDuty Inc. Reports Doubling Revenue in Fourth Quarter of 2024 Earnings Season

PagerDuty Inc. (PD), a leader in digital operations management, recently announced its strong revenue growth of 355.951% year on year to $52.75 million in the fourth quarter of the 2024 earnings season. While this may seem impressive at first glance, a closer look reveals concerning trends that suggest the company is heading in the wrong direction.
PD's revenue advancement in the fourth quarter of 2024 may correlate advantageously to its Software and Programming sector contemporaries, who experienced an overall 3.66% top-line advance in the same period. However, when compared to the preceding financial reporting period, PD's losses increased from $-0.16 per share, and revenue tumbled by a staggering -51.165% from $108.02 million.

Bigbear Ai Holdings Inc

Despite Revenue Growth, BigBear.ai Holdings Inc Reports Financial Loss for Three Months Ending Dec 31, 2023

BigBear.ai Holdings Inc, a renowned leader in AI-powered decision intelligence solutions, has recently made waves in the stock market with its groundbreaking acquisition. The company has successfully completed a merger with Pangiam Intermediate Holdings, LLC, which is set to establish BigBear.ai as a breakout leader in Vision AI for critical sectors such as national security, supply chain management, and digital identity. This strategic move is expected to revolutionize decision-making processes by providing unparalleled clarity and insights.
BigBear.ai has been widely acknowledged for its expertise in delivering AI-powered solutions for national security. By joining forces with Pangiam, a company with vast knowledge in Vision AI for the global trade and travel industries, the merged entity is positioned to become an undisputed leader in addressing complex national security challenges. The impact of this union will be far-reaching and transformative, greatly enhancing threat detection, improving surveillance capabilities, and strengthening border control measures.

Porch Group Inc

Porch Group Inc. Achieves Impressive Revenue Growth and Drastic Reduction in Losses in Q4 2023

Porch Group Inc. has certainly impressed investors with its stellar performance in the financial fourth quarter of 2023. With a remarkable increase in revenue by 70.422% to $114.61 million, the company has managed to significantly reduce its losses to just $-0.03 per share, compared to $-0.39 in the same period last year. This impressive feat has outshined its industry counterparts in the Software and Programming sector, which only saw a 3.66% increase in revenue during the same timeframe.
It is evident that Porch Group Inc. is on the path to success, with a clear improvement in its financials compared to previous quarters. The company reported a net loss of $-2.486 million in the October to December 31, 2023 timeframe, a massive improvement from the $-37.995 million loss in the same period a year ago. Additionally, the company's accounts receivable have declined, which some analysts attribute to a slowdown in demand.

Asana Inc

Asana Inc Navigates Critical Fiscal Period in Fourth Quarter of 2024



Asana Inc, a leading work management platform, recently released its financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended January 31, 2024. While the company reported a decrease in revenue and net loss per share compared to the previous year, the overall performance beat expectations. This article delves into the impact of the results and why the future looks promising for Asana.
Disastrous Revenue Performance:
Despite experiencing a challenging November to January period, Asana's revenue decreased by only -55.982% to $66.13 million. Although this decline may seem concerning, it is important to note that the Software and Programming sector as a whole recorded a revenue rise in the fourth quarter of 2024. This suggests that the sector experienced similar challenges, and Asana fared better than its competitors.
