IoT and lifestyle products
The lock-in engine. RMB31.3 billion in the June quarter at a 20.1% gross margin, with 1.16 billion connected devices on the platform, up 17.4%. Revenue fell 19.2% year over year as Chinese appliance subsidies faded and overseas growth only partly offset it, which is what makes this the most cyclical line in the company. Its job is not margin. Its job is to raise the number of Xiaomi devices in a household, because a user with five is a different user from one with one.

Assumptions & reasoning
- A growth driver is the honest choice here and not the lazy one. Xiaomi discloses connected device count and revenue but no unit shipments, no average price and no category split with economics attached, so a unit driver would need a price per device that does not exist in the public record.
- This line is seasonal - air conditioners peak in the June quarter, which is most of why revenue rose 26.7% sequentially while falling 19.2% year over year. The projection is smooth and the history is not. Read the annual totals rather than individual projected quarters.
- The 20.1% gross margin is disclosed; the 10% EBITDA margin is our allocation of group operating expense and is the input most likely to be wrong in either direction.
