Yoozoo's profit surge, AI push and chip packaging bet drive gains

H1 profit forecast up 3–5x Yoozoo forecast first-half 2026 net profit of 200–300 million yuan, up 299%–498% from a year earlier, helped by steady core games, new mini-games, overseas growth and lower costs. A big profit jump makes the shares look cheaper and draws buyers.
The profit forecast is the first hard signal of a turnaround and directly lifts earnings expectations.
AI platform and safety initiative Yoozoo co-founded an AI safety initiative and said its YOOZOO.AI platform links about 50 large models across planning and ad operations. Investors see AI as cutting costs and speeding up game production, which supports higher profit margins.
The AI initiative and platform show a concrete technology edge that can improve future profitability.
Advanced chip packaging center Yoozoo is partnering with Kangying Semiconductor and Sunrise to build a 2.5D/3D advanced packaging center in Wuxi, targeting computing and memory chips. This adds a new growth story beyond games, though it is early-stage and needs execution.
The packaging venture opens a new business line that could diversify revenue and attract tech-focused investors.
H1 results beat forecast The actual half-year report showed net profit of 253 million yuan, up 403.8%, with overseas revenue at a record 72% of sales. Second-quarter profit of 149 million yuan beat the earlier forecast range, confirming the turnaround is real.
The final results confirm and exceed the earlier forecast, giving hard proof that the profit recovery is on track.

AI product launches and short-drama boom offset by first-half loss

Tiangong Short Drama Workbench upgrade Kunlun Tech launched a dual-track AI creation mode for its Tiangong Short Drama Workbench, solving character face-swapping and chaotic shot issues. A short drama made with it earned million-dollar revenue in seven days, showing the platform can drive real money-making content.
This new product directly boosts the company's AI content creation capabilities and revenue potential.
Major AI model upgrades announced Kunlun Tech unveiled Matrix-Game 3.5 world model, Mureka v9.5, and O3 music model at the World AI Conference. The CEO called 2026 the inaugural year of world models, positioning the company as a leader in AI and opening new markets in gaming and physical intelligence.
These upgrades strengthen the company's technology leadership and future growth prospects.
Short-drama market boom and cost cuts The global micro-drama market is surging, with revenue projected to hit $26 billion by 2030. Kunlun Tech uses AI to cut production costs by over 90%, from $200,000 to under $20,000 per title, making its content far more profitable as demand grows.
This shows a large and growing market where Kunlun Tech has a cost advantage.
First-half non-GAAP net loss Kunlun Wanwei reported a non-GAAP net loss of 458 million yuan in H1 2026, despite revenue rising 43.55%. Profit came from a one-time investment gain, and operating cash flow was negative. The equity incentive plan only targets revenue, raising investor concerns about profitability.
This is a key financial counterweight that could pressure the stock price.
