SUMMARY
  • Baidu reported revenue/non-GAAP operating profit/GAAP net income inline/7.72%/66.1% vs. our estimation.
  • We believe short term cyclical and medium term AIGC-led upswing in advertising can bridge Baidu’s long-term business, which we do see them difficult to monetize.
  • We maintain a BUY rating and adjusted TP to US$157, implying a 14.6x PE. It is currently trading at 11.4x PE in 2024.
