In the second quarter of 2025, JOYY Inc. reported net revenues of $507.8 million, a decrease from the $565.1 million reported in the same period in 2024.

Operationally, JOYY’s global average mobile monthly active users (MAUs) decreased to 262.5 million, down from 275.2 million in the previous year. This decline was attributed to the company’s strategic shift towards more focused sales and marketing strategies. The company also reported a decrease in the total number of paying users and average revenue per paying user.
Looking ahead, JOYY Inc. expects net revenues for the third quarter of 2025 to be between $525 million and $539 million. The company remains optimistic about its dual growth engine strategy and its potential to drive further growth in the advertising technology industry, aiming to deliver sustained, long-term value for its shareholders.
