Sohu Second-quarter results exceeded our expectations, revenue for 338.9 million U.S. dollars, the year-on-year growth of 18.8%, the chain growth of 10.2%. Diluted earnings per share of 56 cents, fell 26.8% year-on-year, the chain fell 11.4%.

Revenue growth has largely benefited from the strong performance of online advertising and network gaming, but higher operating costs have weighed on overall profitability.
