SINGAPORE, November 10, 2026--( BUSINESS WIRE )--Sea Limited (NYSE: SE) ("Sea" or the "Company") today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026.
In the third quarter of 2026, Sea's GAAP revenue was US$8.6 billion, up 43.4% year-on-year.

On Shopee, he said, "Shopee delivered another strong quarter, again achieving new record highs in both top- and bottom-line metrics. Our strategies have proven effective at strengthening our fundamentals, giving us a growing buyer base, stronger monetization, and improving unit economics."
On Monee, Mr. Li said, "Monee also delivered another quarter of healthy growth while staying disciplined in how we manage risk and how we invest. We are reaching more users, deepening relationships with existing ones, and extending credit into more everyday spending scenarios, both on- and off-Shopee."
On Garena, Mr. Li said, "Garena delivered a solid third quarter, with bookings continuing to grow and profitability continuing to improve. Free Fire anchored this performance with strong bookings growth, and Arena of Valor continued its strong momentum from its 10th year anniversary celebrations."

Forward-Looking Statements
This announcement contains forward-looking statements. These statements are made under the "safe harbor" provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as "may," "could," "will," "expect," "anticipate," "aim," "future," "intend," "plan," "believe," "estimate," "likely to," "potential," "confident," "guidance," and similar statements. Among other things, statements that are not historical facts, including statements about Sea's beliefs and expectations, the business, financial and market outlook, and projections from its management in this announcement, as well as Sea's strategic and operational plans, contain forward-looking statements. Sea may also make written or oral forward-looking statements in its periodic reports to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), in its annual report to shareholders, in press releases, and other written materials, and in oral statements made by its officers, directors, or employees to third parties. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties. A number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement, including but not limited to the following: Sea's goals and strategies; its future business development, financial condition, financial results, results of operations, financing needs, and sources of funding; the expected growth in, and market size of, the e-commerce, digital financial services, and digital entertainment industries in the markets where it operates, including segments within those industries; expected changes or guidance in its revenue, costs and expenses, or capital expenditures; its ability to continue to source, develop and offer new and attractive online games and to offer other engaging Garena content; the expected growth of its Shopee, Monee and Garena businesses; its expectations regarding growth in its user base, level of engagement, and monetization; its ability to continue to develop new technologies and/or upgrade its existing technologies; growth and trends of its markets and competition in its industries; risks associated with new business initiatives, including our artificial intelligence, cloud, and infrastructure initiatives; government policies and regulations relating to its industries, including the effects of any government orders or actions on its businesses; general economic, political, social and business conditions in its markets; and the impact of widespread health developments.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we use the following non-GAAP financial measures to help evaluate our operating performance:
-
"Adjusted EBITDA" for our Shopee segment, Monee segment, Garena segment and Other Services segment represents operating income (loss) plus depreciation and amortization expenses. We believe that the segment adjusted EBITDA helps to identify underlying trends in our operating results, enhancing their understanding of the past performance and future prospects. As mentioned in our prior earnings release, we have excluded the net effect of changes in deferred revenue and its related cost in Adjusted EBITDA for our Garena segment but continue to disclose it as supplemental information.
-
"Total adjusted EBITDA" represents the sum of adjusted EBITDA of all our segments combined, plus unallocated expenses. We believe that the total adjusted EBITDA helps to identify underlying trends in our operating results, enhancing their understanding of the past performance and future prospects.
These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. None of the above financial measures should be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to revenue, net loss/income, or any other measure of performance or as an indicator of our operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures to Sea's data. We compensate for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to their nearest U.S. GAAP financial measures, all of which should be considered when evaluating our performance. We encourage you to review our financial information in its entirety and not rely on any single financial measure.
The tables below present selected financial information of our reporting segments, the non-GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to GAAP financial measures, and the related reconciliations between the financial measures. Amounts are expressed in thousands of US dollars ("$").

Net cash used in investing activities amounted to US$5,629 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026. This was primarily attributable to an increase in loans receivable of our credit business of US$4,446 million, purchase of property and equipment of US$1,042 million to support the existing operations, as well as net purchases of investments of US$134 million mainly consisting of time deposits and sovereign and corporate debt securities. Net cash generated from financing activities amounted to US$483 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026. This was primarily attributable to an increase in bank deposits of US$1,823 million and net proceeds from other funding sources related to credit business of US$436 million, offset by the cash used in redemption of convertible notes of US$1,051 million and repurchase of ordinary shares of US$743 million.
UNAUDITED SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company has three reportable segments, namely Shopee, Monee and Garena. The Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"), comprising our senior management team, evaluates each segment's financial performance by reviewing revenue, significant operating expenses, and segment operating income or loss. To allocate resources for each segment, the CODM evaluates these results, along with certain key operating metrics of each segment. This assessment is done regularly by monitoring each segment's actual financial and operating performance against projections as part of the Company's business planning and budgeting process. Amounts are expressed in thousands of US dollars ("$").
