“Our robust second quarter performance delivered total revenues that increased by 4.1% year-over-year to US$79.2 million, exceeding the top end of our guidance despite the period’s seasonality prompted by the Ramadan holiday,” said Mr. Yang Tao, Founder, Chairman and CEO of Yalla. “These exceptional results showcase our ongoing dedication and ability to successfully refine our operating processes, enhance the gamification of our flagship applications and optimize our user acquisition strategy. As a result, we have holistically elevated users’ experience across our suite of products, driving increased user engagement. Our Group’s average MAUs increased to 34.2 million for the second quarter, up 14.3% year-over-year. Users are also showing increasing willingness to pay for our products and the number of total paying users increased to 13.4 million in the second quarter of 2023.
“The launch of our second hard-core mobile game Merge Kingdoms drove exciting progress in our mid-core and hard-core gaming business during the second quarter. Meanwhile, we continue to refine and upgrade our first self-developed hard-core game, Age of Legends, which was launched across Gulf countries at the beginning of August 2023,” Mr. Yang added. “Digital transformation is sweeping through the MENA region. To make the most of the growing opportunities within the expanding market, we are strategically investing in R&D and exploring new business prospects that complement our existing offerings. Moving forward, we will continue to leverage our local know-how and core capabilities, as well as work to forge collaborations with international partners that strengthen our offerings and overall value proposition.”
“In the second quarter, we achieved solid top-line and bottom-line growth as we continued to pursue high-quality development of our business,” said Ms. Karen Hu, CFO of Yalla. “Our commitment to disciplined cost management and an ROI-focused sales and marketing strategy has elevated our overall operational efficiency. We have also strategically leveraged the high-interest rates to achieve a higher return for our strong cash position. Consequently, we maintained a healthy level of profitability throughout the quarter, registering a net margin of 35.7% and excluding share-based compensation, a non-GAAP net margin of 42.6%. Our solid cash position and effective overall execution equip us to seize future opportunities that foster our sustainable growth and generate value for all of our stakeholders.”
Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results
Revenues
Our revenues were US$79.2 million in the second quarter of 2023, a 4.1% increase from US$76.1 million in the second quarter of 2022. The increase was primarily driven by the broadening of our user base and our enhanced monetization capability. Our average MAUs increased by 14.3% from 29.9 million in the second quarter of 2022 to 34.2 million in the second quarter of 2023. Our solid revenue growth was also partially attributable to the significant increase in the number of paying users, which grew from 10.6 million in the second quarter of 2022 to 13.4 million in the second quarter of 2023.
In the second quarter of 2023, our revenues generated from chatting services were US$55.2 million, and revenues from games services were US$24.0 million.
Costs and expenses
Our total costs and expenses remained relatively stable at US$55.3 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared with US$55.2 million in the second quarter of 2022.
Our cost of revenues was US$28.3 million in the second quarter of 2023, a 3.2% decrease from US$29.3 million in the same period last year, primarily due to lower commission fees paid to third-party payment platforms as a result of diversified payment channels, and lower technical service fees resulting from more disciplined management.
Cost of revenues as a percentage of our total revenues decreased to 35.8% in the second quarter of 2023, compared with 38.5% in the second quarter of 2022.
Our selling and marketing expenses were US$12.4 million in the second quarter of 2023, a 10.4% increase from US$11.2 million in the same period last year, primarily due to higher advertising and market promotion expenses driven by our continued user acquisition efforts and expanding product portfolio. Selling and marketing expenses as a percentage of our total revenues remained relatively stable at 15.6%, compared with 14.7% in the second quarter of 2022.
Our general and administrative expenses were US$8.0 million in the second quarter of 2023, a 15.4% increase from US$6.9 million in the same period last year, primarily due to an increase in incentive compensation and an increase in professional service fees. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of our total revenues remained relatively stable at 10.1%, compared with 9.1% in the second quarter of 2022.
Our technology and product development expenses were US$6.6 million in the second quarter of 2023, a 14.8% decrease from US$7.7 million in the same period last year, primarily due to the appreciation of the U.S. dollars, which resulted in a decrease in the reporting currency amount of salaries and benefits for our technology and product development team, demonstrating benefits of the Company’s globalized talent acquisition strategy. Technology and product development expenses as a percentage of our total revenues decreased from 10.2% in the second quarter of 2022 to 8.3% in the second quarter of 2023.
Operating income
Operating income was US$23.9 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared with US$20.9 million in the second quarter of 2022.

Interest income
Our interest income was US$4.6 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared with US$0.2 million in the second quarter of 2022, primarily due to a significant increase in interest rates applicable to the Company’s bank deposits and a continued increase in the Company’s cash position.
Income tax expense
Our income tax expense was US$0.82 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared with US$0.78 million in the second quarter of 2022.
Net income

As of June 30, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents, term deposits and short-term investments of US$510.5 million, compared with US$453.0 million as of December 31, 2022.

The aggregate value of ADSs and/or Class A ordinary shares that remain available for purchase under the current share repurchase program was US$123.0 million as of June 30, 2023.
Outlook
For the third quarter of 2023, Yalla currently expects revenues to be between US$73.0 million and US$80.0million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP, this press release presents non-GAAP financial measures, namely non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net margin and non-GAAP basic and diluted earnings per ordinary share, as supplemental measures to review and assess the Company’s operating performance. The presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We define non-GAAP operating income as operating income excluding share-based compensation. We define non-GAAP net income as net income excluding share-based compensation. We define non-GAAP net margin as non-GAAP net income as a percentage of revenues. We define non-GAAP net income attributable to Yalla Group Limited’s shareholders as net income attributable to Yalla Group Limited’s shareholders, excluding share-based compensation. We define non-GAAP earnings per ordinary share as non-GAAP net income attributable to Yalla Group Limited’s shareholders, divided by the weighted average number of basic and diluted shares outstanding.
By excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses, which are non-cash charges, the Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in its business and enhance the overall understanding of the Company’s past performance and future prospects. Investors can better understand the Company’s operating and financial performance, compare business trends among different reporting periods on a consistent basis and assess its core operating results, as they exclude share-based compensation expenses, which are not expected to result in cash payments. The Company also believes that the non-GAAP financial measures allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by the Company’s management in its financial and operational decision-making.
The non-GAAP financial measure is not defined under U.S. GAAP and is not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measure has limitations as analytical tools. One of the key limitations of using the non-GAAP financial measures is that they do not reflect all items of income and expense that affect the Company’s operations. Share-based compensation has been and may continue to be incurred in the Company’s business and is not reflected in the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures. Further, the non-GAAP financial measure may differ from the non-GAAP information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited.
The Company compensates for these limitations by providing the relevant disclosure of its non-GAAP financial measures in the reconciliations to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measures, all of which should be considered when evaluating its performance. The Company encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
Reconciliations of GAAP and non-GAAP results are set forth at the end of this press release.
