On the evening of October 26, Gigabit, a listed game company, disclosed its third quarterly report. In the first three quarters, the company achieved operating income of 3.83 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 9.89%; net profit was 1.012 billion yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 16.07%. The financial report also disclosed the dividend plan at the same time. The company plans to distribute a cash dividend of 140 yuan (tax included) for every 10 shares, with a total planned dividend of 1.006 billion yuan.
This means that Gigabit will use all the net profit in the first three quarters to distribute dividends. The company is the shareholding company behind the popular mini game “Sheeping a Sheep” in September.
According to Tianyancha, the game development company behind “Sheep and Goat” is Beijing Jianyou Technology Co., Ltd., and the company’s second largest shareholder Xiamen Leiting Network Technology Co., Ltd. is also a subsidiary of Gigabit. Previously, Gigabit officials responded that they indirectly held a 10% stake in Jianyou Technology through a holding subsidiary.
In this dividend, Gigabit will distribute all the profits of 1 billion yuan in the first three quarters. As of the end of the third quarter, there were a total of 24,500 gigabit shareholders, each of whom could receive 41,000 yuan in dividends. In addition, Lu Hongyan, the actual controller and chairman of Gigabit, directly holds 21.6295 million shares of the company, with a shareholding ratio of 30.1%. Therefore, Lu Hongyan will take about 300 million yuan in dividends at one time.
After the game “Sheep and Sheep” exploded, the outside world has been curious about how strong its earning power is.
Just in September, a screenshot of the “Daily Traffic Master Data” was circulated on the Internet. The screenshots show that in just half a day, the income of “Sheep and A Sheep” reached 4.68 million yuan, and the monthly income was as high as 25.64 million yuan. In this regard, Zhang Jiaxu, founder of Beijing Jianyou Technology, the production team behind “The Sheep”, said: “The picture is fake. Our game does not add banner ads and interstitial ads for user experience, so the screenshots of revenue are simply wrong. , and the fire time is not enough to make up this total income.” This screenshot also attracted the refutation and response of Tencent founder Ma Huateng.
According to public information, as early as January 2017, Gigabit has become the first A-share game company to achieve independent listing on the main board. Since then, the share price of Gigabit has surpassed the national liquor Kweichow Moutai. From 2012 to 2019, since the company’s gross profit margin has remained above 90%, Gigabit is also known as a “gamer”.
In the latest three quarterly reports, the performance of gigabit was not as good as that of the same period last year, with a net profit of 1.012 billion yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 16.07%, and a deduction of non-net profit of 1.002 billion yuan, which was the same as the same period last year.
The company stated in its financial report that the decrease in net profit was mainly due to the fact that the company made money from investment last year but lost money this year, and the transfer of some shares of Celadon Digital in the same period last year resulted in a large income impact. If the non-net profit is deducted, the adjusted net profit is flat.
Gigabit also emphasized that the company will continue to deepen its main business of game development and operation, and firmly expand its overseas business. During the reporting period, the classic games “Ask”, “Ask Mobile Game” and “A Nian Xiaoyao” continued to perform well, and the newly launched simulation casual game “Obi Island: Dreamland” was popular among young players.
Today, Gigabit opened at 254.5 yuan. As of 10 am, the stock rose 10% to 265.46 yuan, closing the price limit.
