Segment Information

(a)

Description of segments

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), or decision making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Group’s CODM is the Chief Executive Officer.

The Group’s organizational structure is based on a number of factors that the CODM uses to evaluate, view and run its business operations which include, but are not limited to, customer base, homogeneity of products and technology. The Group’s operating segments are based on this organizational structure and information reviewed by the Group’s CODM to evaluate the operating segment results.

Effective in the third quarter of 2019, the Group changed its segment disclosure to add the financial results of its certain advertising services and Yanxuan into innovative businesses and others. In addition, the Group has commenced separately reporting the results of Youdao, which completed its initial public offering and listing on the New York Stock Exchange in October 2019. As a result, the Group now reports segments as online game services, Youdao and innovative businesses and others. This change in segment reporting aligns with the manner in which the Group’s CODM currently receives and uses financial information to allocate resources and evaluate the performance of reporting segments. This change in segment presentation does not affect consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income or consolidated statements of cash flows. The Group retrospectively revised prior year segment information, to conform to current year presentation.

There was no significant transaction between reportable segments for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2019 and 2020 (in thousands).
