With the headline numbers on the table, the next step is to set them against the widely followed narratives around NetEase Cloud Music to see which stories the latest margins support and which ones the fresh data calls into question. Curious how numbers become stories that shape markets? Explore Community Narratives SEHK:9899 Revenue & Expenses Breakdown as at Feb 2026 AdvertisementMargins Climb to 35.4% on C$7.8b Revenue  On a trailing 12 month basis, NetEase Cloud Music generated C$7.8b of revenue and C$2,748 million of net income from core operations, which works out to a 35.4% net profit margin compared with 19.6% a year earlier. What stands out for the more bullish narrative is how this 35.4% margin and 76% trailing earnings growth sit alongside semi annual net income of C$751.7 million, C$1,885.5 million and C$862.7 million. This shows profits holding up across different halves even as individual periods move around.  To see how other investors connect these margin shifts to long term stories for the stock, have a look at the 📊 Read the full NetEase Cloud Music Consensus Narrative. Earnings Growth Outruns Revenue at 76%  Across the last 12 months, revenue growth was 8.3% while earnings increased 76% and five year annualized earnings growth averaged 73.6% per year, so profit growth ran far ahead of the top line. Supporters of a bullish stance often point to this gap, arguing that strong earnings growth on 8.3% revenue growth reflects better economics. Yet the data also show semi annual EPS moving from C$3.60 to C$8.96 and then to C$4.08, which reminds you that short term swings in per share profit can be quite pronounced even when the longer term trend looks strong.  P/E of 11.4x and DCF Fair Value Gap  The shares trade on a trailing P/E of 11.4x, below the peer average of 46.8x and the Hong Kong Entertainment industry average of 14.2x. The current price of C$162.80 sits about 39.3% below a C$268.36 DCF fair value in the provided data. Investors taking a more cautious or bearish angle highlight that forward earnings are only forecast to grow 0.7% per year compared with a 12.3% market forecast. While the 11.4x P/E and discount to DCF fair value might appeal, the relatively modest expected profit growth can lead some to question how much re rating potential is implied by these valuation gaps.   Next Steps Don't just look at this quarter; the real story is in the long-term trend. We've done an in-depth analysis on NetEase Cloud Music's growth and its valuation to see if today's price is a bargain. Add the company to your watchlist or portfolio now so you don't miss the next big move.
