iQIYI Earnings Call Transcript Summary of Q1 2026
iQIYI reported Q1 2026 revenue of RMB 6.2 billion with sequentially improving membership revenue (RMB 4.2 billion, +2% QoQ) driven by premium dramas and a rebounding content slate. The company is prioritizing AI-driven content production (Nadou Pro) and new, shorter formats (short-form dramas and internet feature films) to lower costs and accelerate output — targeting over 100 short-form dramas in 2026. Overseas membership grew strongly (over 40% YoY), with particularly rapid expansion in Southeast Asia, Brazil and Mexico. Advertising and micro-drama monetization showed signs of improvement; micro-drama revenue per inventory unit rose >60% YoY. Q1 operating discipline reduced content and operating expenses; net cash from operations was RMB 186 million and non-GAAP operating loss was RMB 149 million (approximately 2% margin). The company ended the quarter with about RMB 4 billion in liquidity, reduced debt via repurchase of convertible notes, and has announced an HKEX primary listing proposal plus a USD 100 million share repurchase program (USD 8 million of ADS buybacks completed so far). Management emphasized building a decentralized creator ecosystem, commercializing Nadou Pro, expanding IP monetization (merchandise and iQIYI LAND), and leveraging AI to improve margins and scale content supply.
