BIDU 3Q24 Results: Monetization of Gen-AI Search Could Take Time to Materialize
What’s new: Baidu’s reported 3Q24 top-line results that were largely in line with consensus and our expectations. Baidu Core ads could remain challenging in 4Q partly due to macro and limited monetization related to gen-AI search. AI Cloud rev growth could accelerate in 4Q partly driven by gen-AI related revs. We lower our PT from USD130 to USD110 amid lowered outlook. Our updated PT of USD110 implies 10.6x FY25E P/E. We maintain our BUY rating.Analysts:
