Repurchase of 4% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026
In August 2024, the Company completed the repurchase right offer for its 4% convertible senior notes due 2026 (the “Notes”). An aggregate principal amount of US$395.5 million of the Notes were validly surrendered and repurchased with an aggregate repurchase price (including the aggregate principal amount of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest) of US$397.5 million. Following settlement of the repurchase, less than US$0.2 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes remains outstanding and continues to be subject to the existing terms of the Indenture and the Notes.
PAG Facility Agreements
In August 2024, the Company entered into a facility agreement with PAG, adding to the previous facility agreement from September 2023. Together, these facility agreements provide PAG with loan facilities with an aggregate amount of up to US$522.5 million, with an interest rate of 6% per annum. At each draw down, PAG shall release the equivalent amount of restricted cash collateralized by the Company under the PAG Notes. As a result, the foregoing facility arrangement does not impact the Company’s cash available for daily operations.
Upon PAG’s total draw down of US$400 million under the facility agreements, the corresponding restricted cash collateral will be released, and the repurchase right for the US$522.5 million principal of the PAG Notes will be waived. Such repurchase right would have allowed PAG to require the Company to repurchase the PAG Notes during the three-month period starting on December 30, 2025.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement iQIYI’s consolidated financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, iQIYI uses the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating income margin, non-GAAP net income attributable to iQIYI, non-GAAP diluted net income attributable to iQIYI per ADS and free cash flow. The presentation of the non-GAAP financial measure is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.
iQIYI believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its operating performance by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of its business operating results, such as operating performance excluding non-cash charges or non-operating in nature. The Company believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to the non-GAAP financial measures in assessing its performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparisons to iQIYI’s historical operating performance. The Company believes the non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making. A limitation of using these non-GAAP financial measures is that the non-GAAP measures exclude certain items that have been and will continue to be for the foreseeable future a significant component in the Company’s results of operations. 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 the Company’s data.
Non-GAAP operating income represents operating income excluding share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets resulting from business combinations.
Non-GAAP net income attributable to iQIYI, Inc. represents net income attributable to iQIYI, Inc. excluding share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets resulting from business combinations, disposal gain or loss, impairment of long-term investments, fair value change of long-term investments, adjusted for related income tax effects. iQIYI’s share of equity method investments for these non-GAAP reconciling items, primarily amortization and impairment of intangible assets not on the investees’ books, accretion of their redeemable non-controlling interests, and the gain or loss associated with the issuance of shares by the investees at a price higher or lower than the carrying value per share, adjusted for related income tax effects, are also excluded.
Non-GAAP diluted net income per ADS represents diluted net income per ADS calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income attributable to iQIYI, Inc, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares expressed in ADS.
Free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures.
