Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial information is prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. In evaluating our business, we have considered and used certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Non-GAAP gross profit, Non-GAAP gross margin, Non-GAAP operating loss, Non-GAAP operating loss margin, Non-GAAP EBITDA, Non-GAAP EBITDA margin, Non-GAAP net loss and Non-GAAP net loss margin, as supplemental measures to review and assess our operating performance. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We present these non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by our management to evaluate our operating performance and formulate business plans. We also believe that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures facilitates investors’ assessment of our operating performance.
These non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. One of the key limitations of using these non-GAAP financial measures is that they do not reflect all items of income and expense that affect our operations. Further, these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from those used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited.
We compensate for these limitations by reconciling these non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measure, 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 a single financial measure.
Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin (Non-GAAP Measures)
We define Non-GAAP gross profit as gross profit excluding share-based compensation allocated in the cost of revenues, and we define Non-GAAP gross margin as Non-GAAP gross profit as a percentage of revenues.

We define Non-GAAP EBITDA as Non-GAAP net loss excluding interest income, interest expense, income tax (benefit) expense and depreciation and amortization, and we define Non-GAAP EBITDA margin as Non-GAAP EBITDA as a percentage of revenues.

BUSINESS REVIEW AND OUTLOOK
Business Review for the Reporting Period
We continue to uphold the principle of high-quality and sustainable development and “build success based on technology and innovation”. We forge our reputation throughout the entire business process with customer centricity, while enhancing our business and operations management.
During the Reporting Period, total revenues reached RMB4,319.2 million (US$602.9 million), increased by 17.8% from RMB3,667.5 million in the same period last year. The increase was mainly due to the strong revenue growth of AI-related customers, our expansion in enterprise cloud projects and partially offset by our proactive scale-down of services for content delivery network (CDN) customers. Revenues from public cloud services were RMB2,978.8 million (US$415.8 million) and revenues from enterprise cloud services were RMB1,340.4 million (US$187.1 million). Gross profit was RMB657.2 million (US$91.7 million), increased by 7.4% from RMB611.6 million in the first half of 2024. Gross margin was 15.2%, compared with 16.7% in the same period of 2024. Non-GAAP gross profit was RMB678.2 million (US$94.7 million), increased by 9.0% from RMB622.5 million in the same period of 2024. Non-GAAP gross margin was 15.7%, compared with 17.0% in the same period of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA achieved RMB724.6 million (US$101.1 million), significantly increased by 672.6% from RMB93.8 million in the same period of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 16.8%, increased by 14.2 percentage points from 2.6% in the same period of 2024.

While upholding the principle of “building success based on technology and innovation”, we constantly iterate our products at a fast pace to create a top-notch customer experience with our core products. During the Reporting Period, the ninth generation cloud servers C9a and X9a have officially been released, powered by a brand new processor that significantly enhances performance to meet the diverse computing scenario requirements of customers. This includes AI inference scenarios such as natural language processing and recommendation algorithms, as well as high throughput and high concurrency scenarios for financial trading systems and e-commerce flash sales, along with high-performance, low-latency gaming environments. The Xingliu Training and Inference Platform has also been officially launched, providing users with a one-stop model training and inference task management platform, integrating high-quality open-source large language models such as Xiaomi MIMO, Kimi, Deepseek, and Qwen3, further expanding the ecosystem of the training and inference platform and assisting sectors such as public services financial services, and the internet in achieving AI upgrades. In addition, the high-performance file storage KPFS2.0, dedicated clusters for cloud databases, and the Hanhai large model platform have also been launched. We continue to support the digital transformation and upgrading of the industry through a rich array of products and high-quality services.
Infrastructure
Our distributed infrastructure is the foundation of our technology. As of June 30, 2025, we owned two data centers and around 110,000 servers primarily throughout China, and achieved exabyte-level storage capacity. We have been investing in our infrastructure to upgrade our computing power and storage capabilities, in order to deliver higher-quality cloud service and enhance the economies of scale. We purchase and lease servers, network equipment and network resources, and lease data centers from industry-leading suppliers to ensure the reliability and availability of our network infrastructure. Our suppliers primarily include Internet Data Center (IDC) operators, telecommunication operators, server providers and network consumables suppliers in China.

Total Revenues reached RMB4,319.2 million (US$602.9 million), representing an increase of 17.8% from RMB3,667.5 million in the same period of 2024.

· | Revenues from public cloud services increased by 23.0% to RMB2,978.8 million (US$415.8 million), compared with RMB2,421.9 million in the same period of 2024. The year-over-year increase was mainly due to the growth of AI-related services. |

Cost of revenues were RMB3,662.0 million (US$511.2 million), representing an increase of 19.8% from RMB3,055.9 million in the same period of 2024. We continue to enhance our cost control measures. IDC costs increased by 1.9% year-over-year from RMB1,496.8 million to RMB1,525.9 million (US$213.0 million) in the first half of 2025. The increase was mainly due to the growing demands for infrastructure, which was in line with our AI business expansion, as well as the basic cloud growth brought by AI. Depreciation and amortization costs increased by 107.0% from RMB449.5 million to RMB930.5 million (US$129.9 million) in the first half of 2025. The increase was mainly due to the procurement of new servers to support AI-related services.

Gross profit was RMB657.2 million (US$91.7 million), representing an increase of 7.4% from RMB611.6 million of the same period of 2024. The improvement was mainly due to our faster expansion of revenue scale and optimized revenue mix. Gross margin was 15.2%, compared with 16.7% in the same period of 2024. The decrease was mainly due to the higher costs of servers along with the expansion of AI business, as well as the upfront costs incurred for certain customers’ further revenue activity. Non-GAAP gross profit was RMB678.2 million (US$94.7 million), compared with RMB622.5 million in the same period of 2024. Non-GAAP gross margin was 15.7%, compared with 17.0% in the same period of 2024.

· | General and administrative expenses were RMB521.6 million (US$72.8 million), compared with RMB484.9 million in the same period of 2024. The increase was mainly due to the increase of personnel costs and share-based compensation, and partially offset by the decrease of credit loss expenses. |
· | Research and development expenses were RMB420.5 million (US$58.7 million), decreased from RMB435.9 million in the same period of 2024, which was mainly due to the decrease of research and development personnel due to strategic structure adjustment, as well as our strategic relocation of research and development team from Beijing to Wuhan. |

Net loss was RMB773.0 million (US$107.9 million), increased compared with net loss of RMB717.3 million in the same period of 2024. The increase was mainly due to the increase in operating loss, as well as the increase of interest expense.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Amounts in thousands of Renminbi (“RMB”) and U.S. dollars (“US$”), except for number of shares and per share data)
1. | CORPORATE INFORMATION |
Kingsoft Cloud Holdings Limited (the “Company”) is a limited liability company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on January 3, 2012. The Company, its subsidiaries, its variable interest entities (“VIEs”), and subsidiaries of its variable interest entities are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Group”. The Group is principally engaged in the provision of cloud services. The Company does not conduct any substantive operations on its own but instead conducts its primary business operations through its subsidiaries, the variable interest entities, and subsidiaries of its variable interest entities, which are located in mainland China, Hong Kong (“HK”), Japan and the United States (the “U.S.”).
The Company completed its IPO and follow-on offering on Nasdaq in May and September 2020, respectively and completed its listing by way of introduction on the Main Board of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Stock Exchange”) in December 2022. The Company completed the follow-on offering of American Depositary shares and ordinary shares in April 2025, and the concurrent private placement to Kingsoft Corporation Limited in June 2025.
2. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
(a) | Basis of presentation |
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information. These financial statements also comply with the applicable disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. Certain information and note disclosure normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes are presented in RMB and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand (RMB’000) except when otherwise indicated.
(b) | Going concern consideration |
The Group’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP on a going concern basis. The going concern basis assumes that assets are realized and liabilities are extinguished in the ordinary course of business at amounts disclosed in the consolidated financial statements.
As of June 30, 2025, the Group had an accumulated deficit and net current liabilities of RMB15,063,348 (US$2,102,762) and RMB430,515 (US$60,097), respectively. The Group has primarily funded the operations through revenue generated from contracts with customers, equity financing, and proceeds from financing facilities such as borrowings from third parties and related parties.
In view of such circumstance, management has given careful consideration to the future liquidity and performance of the Group and its available sources of financing in assessing whether the Group will have sufficient financial resources to continue as a going concern. As of June 30, 2025, the Group had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of RMB5,517,128 (US$770,162). In addition, the Group had existing credit facilities available from banks and other financial institutions to finance the future operations and capital expenditures of the Group.
Based on the above, management believes that it is appropriate to prepare the Group’s consolidated financial statements using the going concern basis. Therefore, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Group be unable to continue as a going concern.
19 |
(c) | Principles of consolidation |
The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group include the financial statements of the Company, its subsidiaries, the VIEs, and subsidiaries of the VIEs for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
(d) | Use of estimates |
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in the Group’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, allowance for credit losses for accounts receivable, contract assets and amounts due from related parties, measurement of operating and finance lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, impairment of long-lived assets, impairment of goodwill, useful lives of long-lived assets, realization of deferred tax assets, uncertain tax positions, share-based compensation expense, the fair value of equity investments, standalone selling prices of performance obligation of revenue contracts, fair value of short-term investments and impairment of contract cost. Management bases the estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
(e) | Convenience translation |
Amounts in U.S. dollars are presented for the convenience of the reader and are translated at the noon buying rate of RMB7.1636 per US$1.00 on June 30, 2025 in the City of New York for cable transfers of RMB as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into US$ at such rate.
(f) | Segment reporting |
The Group adopted Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No, 2023-07, Segment Reporting: Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASC 2023-07”) on January l, 2024, to retrospectively improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures for significant segment expenses.
The Group’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer who reviews the consolidated results of operations when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance of the Group as a whole and hence, the Group has only one operating segment. The CODM uses consolidated net loss to assess financial performance and allocate resources. The CODM considers budget to actual comparisons of consolidated net loss on a regular basis when assessing the operating results and making resource decisions to improve profitability. The CODM also uses the budget to actual comparisons of consolidated net loss to make decisions aligned with the Group’s strategic initiatives and capital allocation priorities. Significant expenses reviewed by the CODM include those that are presented in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. The measure of segment assets is reported on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as total consolidated assets.
A majority of the Group’s revenues were generated from mainland China and a majority of the long-lived assets of the Group are located in mainland China, and therefore, no geographical segments are presented.

5. | TAXATION |
(a) | Enterprise income tax |
Cayman Islands
Under the current laws of the Cayman Islands, the Company is not subject to tax on income or capital gains.
Hong Kong
The subsidiaries incorporated in Hong Kong are subject to income tax at the rate of 16.5% on the estimated assessable profits arising in Hong Kong. For the periods presented, the Group did not make any provisions for Hong Kong profit tax as the Group did not generate any assessable profits arising in Hong Kong at the end of each reporting period.

Mainland China
The Group’s mainland China entities are subject to the statutory income tax rate of 25%, in accordance with the Enterprise Income Tax law (the “EIT Law”), which was effective since January 1, 2008.

Dividends, interests, rent or royalties payable by the Group’s mainland China entities to non-resident enterprises, and proceeds from any such non-resident enterprise investor’s disposition of assets (after deducting the net value of such assets) shall be subject to 10% EIT, namely withholding tax, unless the respective non-resident enterprise’s jurisdiction of incorporation has a tax treaty or arrangements with China that provides for a reduced withholding tax rate or an exemption from withholding tax.
