$TENCENT(00700)$ Tencent said in its earnings release: revenue for its China gaming business in the first quarter fell 2% year-on-year, an improvement on the 3% fall seen in the fourth quarter. Gross profit for the ad business grew 66% year-on-year to 14.5 billion yuan.

Tencent beat analyst estimates for revenue and profit in the first quarter, thanks to slightly better sales in the Chinese tech giants core gaming business and improved profitability at its advertising and business services division.

This should be green today!
