=== Mission Statement ===
As mentioned in Sea Limited's website, the mission of the company is to "to better the lives of consumers and small businesses with technology"<ref><nowiki>https://www.sea.com/investor/home</nowiki></ref>. The company highlights its commitment to driving innovation, growth, and positive impact in the markets it operates. Moreover  Sea Limited strives to empower individuals and communities across Southeast Asia and beyond, by aiming on a culture of continuous innovation, fostering meaningful connections, and enhancing financial inclusion.<ref><nowiki>https://www.sea.com/aboutus/ourvalues</nowiki></ref>

=== Marketing and growth strategy ===

==== Product diversification and ecosystem ====
Sea Limited focuses on product diversification, which enables the company to target a wide range of consumer groups, and attract an extensive amount of total customers. At the same time, the company has interconnected its platforms in a way that introduces customers of one sector to the others, integrating them into the Sea ecosystem. A great example of that strategy is the Free Fire, Garena's extremely popular mobile game, and Shopee's interconnection, as users of Free Fire are offered promotions and discounts for Shopee through the game. This proved successful, with Shopee increasing its quarterly revenue by $200 million in the second quarter of 2021.<ref>How Sea Limited Is Growing Larger Than Life | The Motley Fool</ref>

==== Investments and game development ====
Sea Limited was built in the success and currently relying on its digital entertainment brand, Garena. The company was the first to acquire licenses to distribute third-party, extremely popular video games to a massive geographical region. They were therefore much anticipated and Garena automatically established a monopoly in the market. However, the company's investments didn't only focus on distributing third-party games, as Garena has published many original games such as Free Fire, which was the most downloaded mobile game worldwide in 2019 and 2020 and continues to be a major revenue stream.<ref>Sea Limited Stock: This Digital Ecosystem Still Has Upside (NYSE:SE) | Seeking Alpha</ref>

Another notable investment was in subsidies to local express delivery services that led to rapid development of the industry. Until Shopee's emergence in 2017, delivery in Southeast Asia was very expensive and slow, ranging from a week for e-commerce purchases to a year for international parcels. With this investment, Shopee managed to provide delivery of 1-3 days and even offered free shipping, attracting an extensive amount of customers and led users to order via the platform even if they had originally seen the product advertised in other e-commerce companies.<ref>Here’s how Lazada lost its lead to Shopee in Southeast Asia (Part 2 of 2) | KrASIA (kr-asia.com)</ref>

==== Innovation ====
On top of that, the innovation of the company is notable, as it adapted the platform to regions it is operating and included exclusive features. It adjusted the prices for in-game purchases depending on the country, introduced its own platform currency "Garena Shells"<ref>Garena Server: What Is It? | League Of Legends Official Amino (aminoapps.com)</ref> and created game characters that represent the cultures of the countries it is targeting.

Shopee has also shown a great deal of innovation, by offering the shopping security feature "Shopee Guarantee", that freezes the payment to the seller until the buyer has confirmed they received the order in good condition. The importance of this feature is highlighted by a 14.7% increase in customer complaints for e-commerce purchases that was reported by the Consumers Association of Singapore (CASE), differentiating Shopee from other e-commerce giants, such as AliExpress and Lazada.<ref>Shopee’s new consumer protection initiative lets you shop with peace of mind (channelnewsasia.com)</ref>

== Market ==

=== Total Addressable Market ===
Sea Limited operates digital entertainment, e-commerce, and digital financial services businesses primarily in Southeast Asia. Its main sector is communication services and within that sector it operates in the interactive home entertainment industry. Its primary markets include Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, the Philippines, Malaysia, and Singapore.  

* Revenue in the Home Entertainment segment reached US$176m in 2022.
* Revenue is expected to show an annual growth rate (CAGR 2022-2027) of 7.71%, resulting in a projected market volume of US$276m by 2027.

=== Key Market Drivers and opportunities ===
The main market drivers include GDP/capita, level of digitization, and consumer attitudes toward apps.

Moreover non-financial market drivers include the following: 

* Artificial intelligence and machine learning presents vast opportunities for media and entertainment firms to understand what content, shows, movies and music consumers want.

* The upcoming mass 5G rollout in countries such as Singapore and Malaysia, will allow firms to expect more entertainment and gaming innovations such as virtual and augmented reality will be introduced to the market. As such, the demand for hyper-personalised content and immersive entertainment will continue to increase. 

* With the help of platforms and data analytics technologies, companies can scale their use of data while complying with consumer privacy regulations and reducing their costs. Through data-driven decision-making, companies within the media and entertainment sector can deliver personalised content and experiences, retain customers, grow their business, and build a data-driven future.

* This success is fuelled by substantial financial backing from central governments. For example, China plans to build a USD 30 billion fund to ensure they are a world leader in AI by 2030. At the same time, India is making headway with mobile wallets and Progressive Web Applications to streamline in-app experiences (especially for places with slow mobile broadband). Such holistic developments in the infrastructure, which acts as a technical backbone to the market will result in growth opportunities and improved customer retention.

=== Key Market Challenges and Risks ===
Some of the main challenges and risks that can affect Sea Limited, as mentioned in their Q2-2023 earnings report include the following.

* Expected changes or guidance in its revenue, costs, or expenditures.
* Ability to continue sourcing, developing, and offering new and attractive online games.
* Ability to offer other engaging digital entertainment content.
* Expected growth of its digital entertainment, e-commerce, and digital financial services businesses.
* Expectations regarding growth in its user base, level of engagement, and monetization.
* Ability to continue developing new technologies and upgrading existing technologies.
* Expectations regarding the use of proceeds from financing activities, including follow-on equity offerings and convertible notes offerings.
* Growth and trends of its markets and competition in its industries.
* Government policies and regulations relating to its industries, including effects of government orders or actions on its businesses.
* General economic, political, social, and business conditions in its markets.
* Impact of widespread health developments, including the COVID-19 pandemic, and responses thereto (such as voluntary and mandatory quarantines, shut downs, restrictions on travel and activities, and availability of effective vaccines or treatments).
* Impact of economies reopening further in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

==== Most recent quarter ====
Sea Limited released its 2Q23 results in June 2023<ref><nowiki>https://www.sea.com/investor/quarterlyresults</nowiki></ref>, the most notable of which contained in the table below. The company reported just a 5.2% raise in overall revenues, which is mostly due to a 41.1% steep decline in Garena's revenues. The company attributed that to moderation in user engagement and monetization year-on-year, which is likely related to India's ban of Free Fire, Garena's most profitable game, in 2022. Free Fire was the second most downloadable app in India, and had the highest consumer spend.<ref>Free Fire Revenue and Usage Statistics (2023) - Business of Apps</ref> Despite the small increase in overall revenue, the company made a significant cut on operating expenses as it reported a 49.3% decrease in sales and marketing expenses and 23.6% decrease in R&D expenses, which resulted in the company turning profitable after many years of reporting losses.

==== Most recent year ====
The decreasing trend in Garena's revenues was evident from 2022, as the company saw a 10.25% decrease since 2021. However, there is steep growth both in the e-commerce and digital financial services sectors, which seems to become the company's main focus. There was a modest decrease in sales and marketing expenses (14.64%) but increase in administrative and R&D expenses, which led total operating expenses increasing by 21.79%. Nevertheless, the 33.1% increase in gross profit outweighed the higher operating expenses that led to a 18.86% decrease in the net loss.

[[File:Sea Limited Operating Expenses.png|thumb|Breakdown of Sea Limited's operating expenses for 2022|none|491x491px]]



Revenues and gross profit are steeply increasing, but after applying operating expenses, the company reports an increasing loss every year. This is attributed to disproportionate increase of operating expenses year by year, which outweigh the increase in revenues.

Sea Limited's great investment in subsidies to local express delivery companies were one of the major operational expenses that kept Shopee, and by extension the entire company from being profitable until 2023.<ref>Here’s how Lazada lost its lead to Shopee in Southeast Asia (Part 2 of 2) | KrASIA (kr-asia.com)</ref> However, based on the most recent results, operational expenses were significantly reduced, Garena's revenues declined, and the most promising and profitable branch is Shopee.
