On November 6, TENCENT fell 3.02% in Regular Trading, trading at HK$416.8, with turnover of HK$10.778 billion.
The clearest catalyst was a broker note lowering its target price to HK$685 from HK$740 while maintaining an outperform-equivalent call, alongside a warning that third-quarter earnings may face pressure from faster AI investment, particularly model training and WorkBuddy rollout.
The note also trimmed projected adjusted net profit for the next two years by 3% and 7%. Even so, it estimated third-quarter online game revenue would rise 7.3% year over year to RMB68.2 billion, including domestic games up 13% to RMB48.4 billion, while international games fall 4.5% to RMB19.9 billion; advertising revenue was projected to grow 19% to RMB43.0 billion. With the next earnings release due on November 18, the market appears focused on near-term margin trade-offs from accelerated AI spending.
