## Exhibit 99.1

**Exhibit 99.1** 

**Hello Group Inc. Announces Unaudited Financial Results for the Third Quarter of 2025** 

BEIJING, CHINA, December 10, 2025 – Hello Group Inc. (NASDAQ: MOMO) ("Hello Group" or the "Company"), a leading player in Asia's online social networking space, today announced its unaudited financial results for the third quarter of 2025.

| <sup>\*\*</sup> | In line with our strategic focus on return on investment in user acquisition and considering Tantan's diminished materiality to the Group's revenue, we will discontinue the monitoring of Tantan's MAUs. We believe that the number of Tantan's paying users represent a more meaningful metric that better aligns with our current strategy and overall performance.  |

"Q3 was a busy quarter. I am pleased to see that our team responded swiftly to external challenges and delivered good results in both user and financial metrics." commented Yan Tang, Chairman and CEO of Hello Group. " As one of the earliest mobile social platforms in China, Momo has maintained strong brand relevance and user stickiness over the years. Continuous product innovation and algorithm enhancements have driven steady improvement in key user metrics, laying a solid foundation for the sustained performance of our cash cow business. On the overseas front, revenue continued to grow robustly, driven by the rapid expansion of multiple social entertainment and dating brands in our portfolio. We expect the overseas business to become an increasingly important contributor to the Group's future revenue growth."

**Third Quarter of 2025 Financial Results** 

***Net revenues***

Total net revenues were RMB2,650.1 million (US$372.3 million) in the third quarter of 2025, a decrease of 0.9% from RMB2,674.7 million in the third quarter of 2024.

Value-added service revenues mainly include virtual gift revenues from various audio, video and text- based scenarios, and membership subscription revenues. Total value-added service revenues were RMB2,611.4 million (US$366.8 million) in the third quarter of 2025, a decrease of 1.2% from RMB2,642.7 million during the same period of 2024. The decrease was primarily due to external factors that influenced the operational focus of certain broadcasters and agencies as well as the weak consumer sentiment on Momo app, and to a lesser extent, the decline in Tantan's paying resulting from a decline in user base. The decrease was largely offset by the revenue growth from our overseas apps, driven by the rapid expansion from multiple social entertainment and dating brands across our rich portfolio.

Other services revenues were RMB38.8 million (US$5.4 million) in the third quarter of 2025, compared to RMB32.0 million during the same period of 2024.

Net revenues from Chinese mainland decreased from RMB2,358.3 million in the third quarter of 2024 to RMB2,115.4 million (US$297.1 million) in the third quarter of 2025, primarily due to the decrease in net revenues from Momo app and Tantan app. Net revenues from overseas increased from RMB316.4 million in the third quarter of 2024 to RMB534.8 million (US$75.1 million) in the third quarter of 2025, driven by the growth of audio- and video-based products in the MENA region, primarily by the new apps, along with incremental revenue from other emerging brands.

***Cost and expenses***

Cost and expenses were RMB2,309.4 million (US$324.4 million) in the third quarter of 2025, an increase of 1.0% from RMB2,286.2 million in the third quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to: (a) an increase in revenue sharing with virtual gift recipients for overseas apps, partially offset by a decrease in revenue sharing with broadcasters on Momo apps; (b) an increase in commission fees paid to payment channels for overseas apps; and (c) an increase in amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions.

Non-GAAP cost and expenses (note 1) were RMB2,250.0 million (US$316.1 million) in the third quarter of 2025, compared to RMB2,242.2 million during the same period of 2024.

***Income tax expenses***

Income tax expenses were RMB65.1 million (US$9.1 million) in the third quarter of 2025, compared to RMB95.3 million in the third quarter of 2024. The decrease in income tax expenses was primarily due to the lower profit in the third quarter of 2025.

***Net income per ADS***

Diluted net income per ADS was RMB2.06 (US$0.29) in the third quarter of 2025, compared to RMB2.46 in the third quarter of 2024.

Net cash provided by operating activities in the third quarter of 2025 was RMB143.5 million (US$20.2 million), compared to RMB341.0 million in the third quarter of 2024.

**First Nine Months of 2025 Financial Results**

As of December 10, 2025, the Company has repurchased 54.7 million ADSs for US$341.6 million on the open market under the Share Repurchase Program announced on June 7, 2022 and amended on March 14, 2024 and March 12, 2025, at an average purchase price of US$6.23 per ADS. The remaining size of the program is US$144.5 million.

**Business Outlook** 

For the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company expects total net revenues to be between RMB2.52 billion to RMB2.62 billion, representing a decrease of 4.4% to 0.6% year over year. This forecast reflects the Company's current and preliminary views on the market and operational conditions, which are subject to change.

**Note 1: Non-GAAP measures** 

To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), we, Hello Group, use various non-GAAP financial measures that are adjusted from the most comparable GAAP results to exclude share-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions and tax impacts related to the amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions.

Reconciliations of our non-GAAP financial measures to our U.S. GAAP financial measures are shown in tables at the end of this earnings release, which provide more details about the non-GAAP financial measures.

Our non-GAAP financial information is provided as additional information to help investors compare business trends among different reporting periods on a consistent basis and to enhance investors' overall understanding of the historical and current financial performance of our continuing operations and our prospects for the future. Our non-GAAP financial information should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to the GAAP results. In addition, our calculation of the non-GAAP financial measures may be different from the calculation used by other companies, and therefore comparability may be limited.

------

Our non-GAAP information (including non-GAAP cost and operating expenses, income from operations, net income, net income attributable to Hello Group Inc., and diluted net income per ADS) is adjusted from the most comparable GAAP results to exclude share-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions, and tax impacts related to the amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions. A limitation of using these non-GAAP financial measures is that share-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions and tax impacts related to the amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions have been and will continue to be for the foreseeable future significant recurring expenses in our results of operations. We compensate for such limitation by providing reconciliations of our non-GAAP measures to our U.S. GAAP measures. Please see the reconciliation tables at the end of this earnings release.
