Description: BIDU Baidu September 29, 2025

Baidu, Inc. (NASDAQ:BIDU) operates an internet platform in China that delivers both marketing-focused and non-marketing services, split into two primary segments: Baidu Core and iQIYI.

The Baidu Core segment powers the Baidu App, Haokan short-video platform, and a suite of AI-driven products such as ERNIE Bot, Apollo autonomous-driving solutions, DuerOS voice assistant, Baidu Maps, and proprietary AI chips. It also runs knowledge-sharing services (Baidu Wiki, Baidu Knows, Baidu Experience) and a social-media outlet (Baidu Post) that together create a broad ecosystem of search, feed, and content experiences.

The iQIYI segment runs a subscription-based online entertainment video platform, offering a mix of original productions, licensed titles, and user-generated content. iQIYI remains one of China’s largest streaming services, competing directly with Tencent Video and Youku.

Recent performance indicators (Q4 2023) show Baidu’s total revenue at ¥33.5 billion, with AI-cloud services growing ~30% YoY and iQIYI contributing roughly ¥7 billion in subscription revenue. The company’s AI chip business, Kunlun, is projected to reach ¥1.2 billion in 2024, reflecting broader industry momentum toward on-device AI acceleration.

Key economic and sector drivers include: (1) China’s tightening internet-content regulations, which can affect advertising spend and content licensing; (2) accelerating enterprise adoption of generative AI and cloud services, boosting demand for Baidu’s AI-cloud and chip offerings; and (3) the competitive dynamics of China’s streaming market, where subscriber growth and content spend are increasingly tied to macro-level consumer confidence.
