Revenue Growth of Major Businesses
Other revenue mainly represents interest income generated from micro loans and revenue generated by UCWeb and AutoNavi. The restructuring of our relationship with Ant Financial completed in the March 2015 quarter, upon which we no longer consolidate revenue generated by the SME loan business in our financial results.

Quarterly Margin Trends • We don’t manage to a margin target • Lower Y/Y non-GAAP EBITDA margin was due to: • Consolidation of acquired businesses (mainly UCWeb, AutoNavi) with lower margins • Investment in initiatives such as mobile OS, cloud computing, local services and digital entertainment • We will continue to invest in new and existing businesses to drive long-term growth in GMV, new active buyers, revenue and profit Non-GAAP EBITDA (1) and Margin
