The analyst rating from Morgan Stanley was influenced by several factors:
1. Weaker-than-expected game business performance: The report indicated that the performance of the game business did not meet expectations, prompting a revision of revenue forecasts.
2. Lower revenue and gross margin forecasts: The adjustments in revenue forecasts led to a decrease in expected gross margins, which negatively impacted the overall financial outlook for the company.
3. Higher capital expenditure expectations: An increase in anticipated capital expenditures further contributed to the downward revision of financial estimates.
4. Adjusted EPS estimations: As a result of the above factors, Morgan Stanley reduced its adjusted earnings per share (EPS) estimates significantly for the upcoming years.
These elements collectively led to a reduction in the target price for KINGSOFT and the maintenance of an Equalweight rating, indicating a neutral stance on the stock's performance.
The analyst rating for KINGSOFT was upgraded from Hold to Buy by BOCI due to the improved risk-reward ratio of the stock after a nine-month adjustment, despite the company's 3Q25 results being below forecasts. The report noted that while revenue and net profit were significantly lower than expected, the growth in the office software business partially offset the negative impact from the weak gaming sector.
