ByteDance’s sales multiple, being 10.7, is higher than all four comparable companies. However, if we look more closely on user-related metrics, we can see that it has a fairly high ARPU. If we compare it with the other companies, we can see that Douyin’s ARPU is significantly higher than Weibo and iQIYI, the comparable companies in China that shares similar level of MAU with Douyin, and closely follow Facebook. However, Facebook has a much higher user stickiness, MAU and sales revenue. Due to its global presence, its ARPU can be viewed separately when segmenting by geography – in 2018, its annual ARPU sported 111.97 USD in US and Canada but only 10.71 USD in Asia Pacific (Facebook Inc., 2019). As Douyin operates mainly in China and other Asian countries such as India, Japan, and Indonesia – we would conclude that it is only fair to compare its ARPU to Facebook’s Asian segment. Given that Douyin’s current ARPU is above-mean and higher than the comparables, we think that it is highly likely to decrease in the future. We then estimated the value of Douyin and ByteDance based on different multiples of the four companies – results are summarized and shown in Table 9 below.
