Baidu fined for unfair business practices

A district court at Chaoyang fined Baidu and
Evercare for hijacking the branded keyword
Shianba, belonging to Evercare's cosmetic
surgery competitor. Baidu's subsidiary, Baidu
Times had argued they did not have the ability
to police the bidding for keywords, but the court
rejected that claim, pointing out Baidu does
reserve the right to inspect keywords bid on.
The court held the the right was a responsibility
as well.

The combined fine is RMB 130,000 , and will be
effective in fifteen days.

Baidu wins anti-monopoly lawsuit

Renren Information Services company had filed the
suit, the first of its kind in China, with the Beijing
First Intermediate People's Court last December.

Baidu's ad-placement system.

Baidu Library adds new file formats

Earlier known as Baidu Docs. The new formats
are . Vsd,. Pot,. Pps,. Rtf,. Wps ,. et,. dps. The
library now has almost 90,000 shared docs.

Baidu Space updated

The mobile Baidu Space has been updated. The new version is at waphi.baidu.com, and accessible from wap.baidu.com.

Phoenix Nest still has ads on the leftside

Advertisers, however have to improve the quality of
ad-text, that is have it be more relevant to the search,
to be listed on the left. The top three leftside ads,
where they exist, are shown on a gray background.
The others are mixed in the search results.

As Robin Li stated in the Q3 earnings call:

Phoenix Nest is a new option, a new system, it’s
a new mechanism and it’s independent of where [ads]
are displayed. So this switch that we are talking about
means Phoenix Nest as the auction system, as the
bidding system, as the keyboard management system,
will take over all of the inventory we have on our search
results page, meaning the main panel will also be powered,
if you will, by Phoenix Nest.

Rumours Baidu may buy Youku for 200 million USD

Baidu had invested in online video site ku6.com, acquired
recently by another company. Baidu VP Ren Xuyang, in

contacts a lottery sales organization to purchase
the ticket for the user. The winnings are deposited

    1. Baidu.com infringed the copyright incomes of
    contracted writers of Shanda Literature.

    2. Baidu.com was responsible for content and url

    Internet literature.

    5. Baidu.com's response to requirements of pirated content
    deletion is slow.

    6. Baidu.com's tolerance for pirated websites has harmed innovation

New mobile touchscreen Chinese input method

Baidu is planning to launch its new Chinese input
method product based on mobile phone terminals
on November 25, 2009. This new input method
will reportedly support several different ways of
Chinese writing, including Pinyin. In addition, the
new input method has a large vocabulary, which is
apparently 40% more than that of existing input
methods. Baidu said its input method has a strong
"do it yourself" ability and users can create their
own input methods by customizing the appearance,
operating habit, and vocabulary. It also features
powerful networking functions, which enables online
backup of vocabulary base and online updating of
popular new words.

Game site, game.baidu.com, to be operated by 178.com

Baidu plans to contract up to ten employees from game
portal 178.com to take charge of operation and

game.baidu.com, reports Sina quoting an unnamed
insider. Baidu will retain responsibility for ad sales
on the portal, with 178.com taking a small share of
ad revenue, said the report. The new Baidu game
channel is expected to go online on Wednesday with
a notice that it is "powered by 178.com," said the

Eddie Lung(BofA-Merrill Lynch) maintains PT of $455

Met with Baidu management at their China Investment
Summit.

Management says they have better monetization in the right
hand side and top left corner of the result page, both managed
by Phoenix Nest. They are confident of better positive results
after a couple of quarters of transition, as Phoenix Nest is
extended to the main monetization area, left hand side of the
search results page.

Some smaller clients do not want to migrate to Phoenix Nest.
Some big advertisers are not ok with two systems for the two
parts of the page. Some negative impact from some customers
not switching immediately, some customers budgeting less
money initially while waiting to see how things work out, and
system optimization. ML believes the impact will be mostly in
1Q10,with residual in 2Q.

Baidu is managing costs closely during the transition. While
they are still hiring graduates, there are no salary hikes, since
there is less competition because of the downturn. Rental
costs are lower because of the move to an owned building. The
budget for the Japan startup was $25 to 30 mln for 2009 of
which only $17.5 has been spent in 3 quarters. That provides
operating leverage to offset TAC costs from traffic from
partnered websites.

Teaming up with Qtrax for ad-supported music download model

Qtrax announced today that Baidu has agreed
to direct music related search inquiries from its
Entertainment Portal, and Qian Qian Music Online
sites to Qtrax's independent, free and legal
download service, wherever Qtrax has the queried
artist or song in its catalogue.

Allan Klepfisz, President and CEO of Qtrax, commented:
"We are very pleased with Baidu's decision. As the
dominant search engine in China, Baidu will provide us
with substantial traffic from its music and entertainment
portals. We, in turn, will provide the visitors they send
to our independent free and legal site, a superior music
discovery and download experience. In the coming weeks,
we will progressively launch in each of nine Asia-Pacific
countries and begin to divert and monetize traffic - for
the benefit of artists and copyright holders - that
previously found its way to non-licensed sites. We
believe our offering, including information about the
artists, is vastly superior to these unauthorized sites."

Jay Berman, Co-Chairman of the Qtrax Advisory
Board and former Chairman of both the RIAA and IFPI,
observed: "As someone involved in fighting music piracy in
China for more than 20 years, I believe this represents an
important first step. It is a very positive development in
the long standing fight against online music piracy in China."

Wednesday, October 28, 2009

Analyst action: Citi, HSBC

Citi lowers PT from $480 to $440. HSBC raises PT from
$300 to $375.

Analysts: Credit Suisse "underperform": details

3Q09 diluted EPS was US$2.07, up 28% QoQ, in line with
consensus. Revenue was Rmb1,278 mn, up 17% QoQ, within
guidance, but gross margin was up from 63.7% in 2Q09 to
65.4% in 3Q09. Net cash was Rmb3.96 bn in 3Q09 (or
US$16.8 net cash per ADR).

Active customers number was 216,000, up 11% YoY.
ARPU was Rmb5,918, up 25% YoY. ARPU growth rate
has been above customer growth in the past nine out of
ten quarters.

Baidu announced that it will migrate all advertising to
Phoenix Nest on 1 December and Classic P4P system
will be discontinued. Management expects the migration
to impact 4Q09 revenue negatively by 10%. We expect
December to suffer the most, and 1Q10 revenue would
be Rmb1,045 mn, down 14% QoQ or up 29% YoY.

Due to Phoenix Nest migration, we cut our 2009 diluted
EPS by 10%. Due to Phoenix Nest's positive user experience,
earnings cut in future years are lower. We lower our
DCF-based target price from US$290 to US$263, implying
33x 2010 P/E. Trading at 55x 2010E P/E, Baidu is
overvalued. We reiterate our UNDERPERFORM rating.

Analysts: Merrill Lynch, CLSA maintain rating and PT

Both buy ratings. PTs of $455 and a street-high $480,
respectively. Merrill Lynch earlier had the street high
of $512, now reduced to $455.

Search market share for Q3 per Analysys

Baidu at 63.9% and Google at 31.3%, up from
29.1% in Q2. Search market share, ie percentage
of revenue from ad customers, can be expected
to go up for Google (and down for Baidu) in the
next two quarters, as per Baidu's guidance. Search
user share, ie the percentage of end-users searching
using Baidu, should not go down because of the
Phoenix switch.

Wireless client software

Baidu is seemingly inviting its employees to test a new
smart-phone version of Baidu search, with Post Bar
and Baidu Knows Q&A included. The software is
expected to be free.

Analysts: RBC cuts estimates for Q4 and 2010

Analyst Stephen Ju expected a gradual transition
to Phoenix, given what management had told him
in mid September. Expects Baidu to struggle over
the next two quarters, with slower customer signups
and slower ARPU growth. Cuts Q4 09 pro forma
EPS estimate to $6.34 from $6.44, and 2010 estimate
from $10.44 to $8.88 (almost 15%).

Analysts: Pali's Hou on Baidu's sales outlook

Tian Hou believes Baidu's growth is tied to China's
GDP growth, which should be solid this quarter and
next year. Believes the Phoenix Nest transition dip
in revenue is a one time thing. Expectations of over
60% year-over-year growth misplaced. Expects
Baidu to maintain dominance in the near term.
Also believes Baidu will be able to have low expenses
in the General and Administrative categories, but not
in R&D (being a tech company) and marketing (since
their customers are largely SMEs, they need a large
sales force to have a reasonable sales:customer ratio).

Analysts: S&P upgrades from Strong Sell to Sell

Price target moved up from $265 to $350.

Analysts: Morgan Stanley, CS, Deutsche Bank

Morgan Stanley maintained Equal-weight rating.
Credit Suisse reiterated Underperform rating,
and reduced price target from $290 to $263.
Deutsche Bank maintained Hold rating and
$411 price target.

Analysts: Oppenheimer maintains rating, more from Susquehanna

"We believe the transition will result in short-term
pain but long-term gain in terms of monetization as
(Phoenix Nest) increases the matching of more
relevant paid links resulting in higher click-through
rates," wrote Paul Keung, an analyst with
Oppenheimer & Co., in a note to investors. He kept
a "Perform" rating on Baidu.

Susquehanna analyst C. Ming Zhao said while the
company's decision to force its customers to migrate to
the new ad system will sacrifice its growth in the next
couple of quarters, the payoff will be "healthier and
more sustainable growth in the future."

The analyst expects Baidu to resume its "solid growth
trend" in the second quarter of 2010.

GS, JP, Susquehanna, Bernstein lower PT, keep buy ratings

"With only 36 days to move about 80 percent of
revenue to the new bidding system and
customer-to-sales ratio of only around 60:1, we
believe earnings volatility in the fourth quarter of
2009/first quarter of 2010 could be high," analysts
at J.P.Morgan Securities wrote in a note to clients.
On the other hand, a shorter transition time will
likely gather stronger momentum, creating a sense
of urgency for customers to switch, JP Morgan
analysts said. Baidu's Phoenix Nest technology,
introduced in April, is an overhaul of the company's
keyword advertising bidding system
and is expected to improve Baidu's monetization of its
search results. The Phoenix Nest bidding system is a
more advanced system and is likely to bring higher
return on investments to customers and revenue to
Baidu, JP Morgan analysts said. The company's growth
is expected to accelerate in the second quarter of
next year, around six months after the full transition to
the Phoenix Nest bidding system, they added, and
urged investors to add Baidu shares on weakness for
long-term benefits of Phoenix Nest. Separately, Goldman
Sachs analysts said Baidu's decision to discontinue the old
bidding system by Dec. 1 is strategically justifiable, as
running two bidding systems in parallel is logistically
complex, confusing for advertisers, and weakens the
bidding process. Still, Goldman analysts expressed
disappointment as management did not communicate the
risks around a faster transition to investors sooner.

The table below lists the price target changes on Baidu:

Brokerage: New PT: Prior PT: Rating
--------------------------------------
Bernstein 420 460 Outperform
Goldman Sachs 435 455 Buy
JP Morgan 460 480 Overweight
Susquehanna 450 380 Positive

Analyst comments AFTER earnings

The weak fourth-quarter guidance came as a surprise,
but in the longer term, the better efficiencies from
Phoenix Nest, which works similar to Google's AdWords,
should benefit the company, said JP Morgan analyst
Dick Wei.

"It is just short term pain, the long term fundamentals
of the company are still strong," he said.

Pacific Crest's Weinstein echoed the same sentiment,
pointing out the Q3 results have been very strong.
He believes the company's fundamentals are solid.

Search-based ads are cheaper than other forms of
advertising, which makes them popular with small
businesses in China that are just catching on to the
Internet, says Rob Lutts, chief investment officer and
president of Cabot Money Management, a $450 million
fund and Baidu shareholder.

"The key drivers for this company are just starting to
lock into gear," he said. "These are small to medium-sized
businesses of anywhere between 50 and 500 employees,
and they are just starting to use the Internet."

Analyst comments BEFORE earnings: RBC, Nomura

RBC reiterated outperform raising PT from $339 to $484,
*before* earnings were released. Nomura maintained a sell,
both before and after earnings, maintaining margins were
likely to fall, and the stock probably going to $320.

Switching over completely to Phoenix Nest by Dec 1

Expects a hit in revenue for about 2 quarters following
that. Around 70% of customers now use Phoenix Nest,
but only 20% of revenue is from it. The top left panel
ad is managed totally by Phoenix Nest, with some right
side keywords also managed by it. Most of the Phoenix
Nest revenue is from the top left panel ads.

Baidu had a somewhat similar change to its PayPerClick
algorithm almost exactly 3 years ago. Taking a short-term
revenue hit to position for medium-term market share.

Pali positive on Baidu

Profit “could be better than the consensus of
$1.78,” said Tian Hou, a New York-based analyst

Revenue will come in “above consensus and in line

penetration as well as China’s economic recovery,”
she wrote. Hou forecast profit of $1.97 a share.

Baidu Union Promotion

Baidu is adding a new service,
"Baidu Union Promotion" ("Wangmeng Tuiguang"),
on October 13 to the professional version of its bid
ranking system, "Phoenix Nest." The new service
assists advertising clients in displaying their text,
image or flash ads on the 300,000 websites of
Baidu's advertising alliance Baidu Union, and allows
advertisers to activate or inactivate the function for
each individual ad plan that they have created in the
professional system. By default, the service is enabled.

Deutsche Bank downgrades to Hold from Buy

Price target reduced to $411 from $426 by Alan
Hellawell. Hellawell says the China-based
Internet search engine company’s stock price
“has accurately factored in near-term catalysts
and potential for upside is limited.” The analyst
adds in a research note that an “extensive round
of channel checks” ahead of Q3 results with leading
ad brokers and consultants finds that the company
may have met the low end of prior Q3 guidance.
“We believe scope for surprise in average ad spend
and margins to be limited,” he writes.

Oppenheimer comments from last week

BIDU is expected to report 3Q in mid-October.
We expect revs of $188M (high end of $184M-189M
guidance), above consensus of $186M, led by strong
growth in spend per customer. We expect GAAP
EPS of $1.80 vs. cons. of $1.77. Our checks suggest
meaningful growth in search, esp. FMCG
(incl. pharma/healthcare), a key segment for
BIDU. Based on CR Nielsen's stats, 2Q overall
ad spending was $22Bn (+17% Y/Y, +23% Q/Q).
However, investors are likely to focus on FY10
estimates, which mgt implied are aggressive vs.
current trends. We raise our '10 revs/EPS by
9% (+40% Y/Y)/16% (+43% Y/Y), respectively
on improved economic and ad spending outlook,
but are below consensus by 1% (+42% Y/Y)/
1.7% (+46% Y/Y), respectively.

establish relationships with their customers. Customers
who subscribe to information updates on various products
can interact in real-time with sellers of interest. The tool
also enables sellers to see which customers bought goods
through their store, along with each customer's detailed
transaction information. One of the tool's marketing
features allows sellers to select up to 9 goods at a time
for promotion to previous customers. The tool also
includes automated contact features that will send
customers birthday wishes, after-sales reminders and

Phoenix Nest likely to boost revenue this quarter

as per the CEO, Yanhong Li, speaking at Baidu World.

Piper Jaffray has come out with a positive note on
Baidu, pointing out the news from Baidu world would
boost the stock this week.

Baiduworld: x2c strategy, mobile search, Phoenix Nest

Li Mingyuan, GM of Baidu's (Nasdaq: BIDU)
e-commerce division, announced the internet
company's new, x2C-based e-commerce strategy
at today's 2009 Baidu World Conference, as well
as Baidu's new "Feng Ming (Phoenix Call) Plan,"
"Fangzhou (Ark) Plan," and "Bretton Woods Plan."
Li says the "Ark" plan and "Bretton Woods" plan
primarily target the "C" (consumer) portion of
Baidu's market; the former aims to create a complete
online shopping experience, while the latter relates to
Baidu's ongoing efforts to perfect the credit system
for its "YouA" B2C platform. The "Phoenix Call" plan
is a portion of Baidu's x2C strategy, primarily
targeting the "x" part of the equation. Under the plan,
YouA will attract a number of online stores and
individual brands, as well as enterprises capable of
providing superior products and services.

Ren Xuyang, VP of marketing and business development,
said that mobile internet is Baidu's next strategic focus.
Baidu's current mobile offerings are based on existing
products such as its online search and SNS, which it
modifies for use on handsets. Baidu has established
strategic relationships with China Unicom and
China Telecom to pre-install Baidu's search services on
handsets from vendors including Nokia, Samsung and
Lenovo.

Baidu unveiled its intelligent search engine, called the
"One Box" (Chinese name: Frame Calculator) at the
Technology Innovation Conference on August 18,
TechWeb reports. Baidu CEO and Chairman Robin Li
said that the new function returns links to the most
appropriate applications and content providers rather
than returning literal word-matches. For example, if a
person searches for "uplifting mp3," the engine will
return links to music providers, Li said.

User share at 74.5%: iResearch

... for Q2 09, up 1.5 percentage points from Q1.
Google's share falls 1.1% to 19.8. In rural China,
Baidu is about the only player. Some people
use Google China for English searches.

Analysys found a rise of 2.6% for Baidu and a fall
of 1.5% for Google in Q2, from Q1. Comscore believes
Baidu is now the #2 ranked search engine in the
world, ahead of Yahoo. Comscore's number looks to
be inaccurate for China, underrepresenting the
total search volume.

Verifying credibility of brick-and-mortar stores on Youa

Sellers who provide after-sales service via offline
stores will have to provide business and property
licence info, and pictures of the physical store.

UBS upgrades from Sell to Neutral

PT from $150 to $380.

The analyst, Wenlin Li, compares the average spending
of a Baidu customer, $2500/year, to that of Google,
$16000/year. Google's margins rose as its business
scaled, and the same is likely for Baidu as well. Li is
estimating 2009 revenue of 4.5 billion RMB, with 2010
and 2011 estimates being boosted by 33 and 38%. Gross
profit is also being revised up, 60% each for the next 2
years. Net profit revised up by 40%. Largely because
Phoenix Nest did not have the detrimental impact the
analyst had feared.

Youa layout changed

Baidu is updating Youa's product information
database and layout, Sohu reports. The new
page uses tabs for basic description, specs,
pictures, complaints and comments.

Youa also announced the "Ark Project" to set up
and deploy a standard product database containing
product specifications, user reviews, online purchasing,
price quotes, evaluations and information on related
accessories. The database will include standard price
ranges, but model numbers not included in the
database cannot be sold by merchants on the YouA
platform. A spokesperson for Baidu YouA saidd that
the "Ark Project" is an open-source project that will
draw on the information resources of YouA and other
B2C platforms, informative websites and the
Baidu Knows community to build up the database.


More analyst action: DB, JPM, Nomura, CS

Deutsche upped PT from $374 to $408.
Deutsche Bank said they got a peek into the black box,
conducting an on-line, interactive tutorial of Baidu's
many properties and services. Deutsche Bank said
they have also concluded that pricing continues to
improve, and that market share should be
steady-to-up. The firm also raised their 2009/2010 EPS
by 2% and 5% to $6.48 and $10.48, respectively.

JPM's Dick Wei sets a PT of $390. Expects revenue to
grow 40 to 50% for the next couple of years.

"Baidu has a significant lead in market share, there is
only 25 percent penetration and people know the brand,"
said Wei. "The share price still has room to rise." Wei
says Baidu is one of J.P. Morgan's top picks in the sector
and recommends an overweight for the stock.

Nomura downgraded from "neutral" to "reduce" with a PT
of $311.3.
"It is trading at a premium to pre-financial crisis valuations,"
said Jin Yoon, an analyst at Nomura International. "Where
does the stock go from here? Its overheated", it's a case of
liking the company but not the stock, said Yoon. "The
company is still highly correlated to the broader economy,
which is not out of the woods yet," said Yoon.

Credit Suisse says Baidu is expensive and has a target price
of $248, implying a PE ratio of 39 times forecast
2009 earnings. Credit Suisse reckons traffic acquisition
cost (TAC) -- a key barometer of profit margins -- as a
percent of total gross revenue rose 16.0 percent in second
quarter, from 12.7 percent a year earlier, and could hit
17.3 percent in 2010. ($=6.83 yuan)
