In other recent news, JOYY Inc. reported third-quarter 2024 revenue of RMB 558.7 million, with its core segment, Bigo, contributing RMB 496 million. The company also saw a 15.4% increase in non-GAAP operating profit quarter-over-quarter. However, JOYY faced challenges as its primary revenue-generating app, Bigo Live, was removed from both the Google (NASDAQ:GOOGL) Play Store and the iOS App Store due to concerns over user safety. The company is actively working with authorities to address these issues and has implemented enhanced safety measures. Despite these setbacks, Jefferies raised its price target for JOYY to $46, maintaining a Buy rating due to solid financial performance and effective cost management. JOYY is in discussions with Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) for the app’s return to the App Store, while existing iOS users can still access the app. The firm’s strategic focus on globalization and operational efficiency continues to drive growth, with analysts observing potential profitability improvements by 2025. These developments are being closely monitored by investors and analysts, particularly in light of the significant revenue Bigo Live contributes to JOYY.
