The Beijing<\/span>-based company said it would pay a special dividend of HK$0.46 per share after reporting better-than-expected financial results in the second quarter, driven by gains made from its artificial intelligence<\/span> tools, according to its filing. Dividend payments to shareholders will be made on October 6.<\/div>\n

Second-quarter revenue rose 13.1 per cent to 35 billion yuan (US$4.87 billion), up from 31 billion yuan a year earlier. Profit attributable to equity holders was 4.9 billion yuan, compared to about 4 billion yuan a year ago.<\/p>\n

First-half revenue increased 12 per cent to 67.7 billion yuan, up from 60.4 billion yuan a year earlier. Profit reached 8.9 billion yuan, compared to 8.1 billion yuan a year ago.<\/p>\n

Kuaishou’s shares closed down 0.21 per cent to HK$71.75 on Thursday, ahead of the earnings announcement. Its stock has gained nearly 80 per cent this year, but remains below its peak of nearly HK$400 in early 2021.<\/p>\n

The declaration and payment of special dividends reflects not only Kuaishou’s confidence in its long-term growth prospects, but also how AI innovation is expected to help drive growth at its main business segments.<\/p>\n

“Quite a steady growth wouldn’t have been possible without the trust and support of our shareholders,” chairman and CEO Cheng Yixiao said at Thursday’s post-earnings call with analysts. “We will consider measures, such as share repurchases and dividend payments, to reward our shareholders.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
