This Amendment No. 4 to statement on Schedule 13D (this “Amendment No. 4”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed on June 9, 2014, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on August 19, 2016, Amendment No. 2 filed on May 15, 2019 and Amendment No. 3 filed on June 19, 2020 (the “Statement”), and is being filed on behalf of Tencent Holdings Limited, a limited liability company organized and existing under the laws of the Cayman Islands (“Tencent”), and Huang River Investment Limited, a company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands and wholly owned by Tencent (“Huang River” and together with Tencent, the “Reporting Persons”) in respect of the Class A ordinary shares, par value US$0.00002 per share (the “Class A Shares”) of JD.com, Inc., a company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Issuer”). Unless otherwise stated herein, the Statement remains in full force and effect. All capitalized terms used in the Amendment No. 4 but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Statement.

Item 1. Security and Issuer

The second paragraph of Item 1 of the Statement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

The Issuer’s American depositary shares, each representing two Class A Shares, are listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol “JD.” The Reporting Persons beneficially own 529,122,097 Class A Shares.

Item 2. Identity and Background

Appendix A to the Statement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety by Appendix A attached hereto, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

Item 3 of the Statement is hereby amended and supplemented by inserting the following at the end thereof:

On June 4, 2021, the Issuer issued and sold to Huang River, and Huang River purchased from the Issuer, 1,914,998 Class A Shares at a cash consideration of US$68 million pursuant to the May 2019 Subscription Agreement.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 of the Statement is hereby amended by replacing the first paragraph of Item 4 in its entirety with the following:

On December 23, 2021, Tencent announced that it would declare a special interim dividend in the form of distribution in specie of 457,326,671 Class A Shares indirectly held by it through Huang River to the shareholders of Tencent whose names appear on the register of members of Tencent on January 25, 2022 (the “Record Date”) in proportion to their then respective shareholdings in Tencent on the basis of 1 Class A Share for every 21 ordinary shares of Tencent held by such shareholders, subject to adjustments where appropriate and necessary (the “Distribution”). Non-qualifying shareholders as determined by Tencent will not be entitled to receive the Class A Shares in the Distribution and will instead receive cash in lieu of the Class A Shares. No fraction of Class A Shares will be distributed. Nevertheless, fractional entitlements will also be distributed in the form of cash-in-lieu payment for both qualifying shareholders and non-qualifying shareholders of Tencent, except that the net proceeds of less than HK$100 will not be distributed and will be retained for the benefit of Tencent. The Distribution is expected to be conducted on or around March 25, 2022 pursuant to the arrangements as set out in the announcement of Tencent to its shareholders. After the completion of the Distribution, Tencent’s beneficial ownership in the Issuer will be reduced to approximately 2.3% subject to such adjustments where appropriate and necessary, and the qualifying shareholders of Tencent who receive Class A Shares in the Distribution will become shareholders of the Issuer. In connection with the Distribution, Mr Lau Chi Ping Martin, a member of the Board of Directors of the Issuer and a member of the compensation committee thereof, resigned from the Issuer’s Board of Directors with effect from December 23, 2021.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Items 5(a)–(b) of the Statement are hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

(a)–(b) As of the date of this Statement, each Reporting Person is deemed to have beneficial ownership and shared power to vote or direct the vote of 529,122,097 Class A Shares, representing approximately 17.0% of the total outstanding Ordinary Shares, approximately 19.8% of the total outstanding Class A Shares and approximately 4.6% of the aggregate voting power of the total outstanding Ordinary Shares.

Except as set forth in this Item 5(a) and (b), to the best of knowledge of the Reporting Persons, no person identified in Appendix A hereto beneficially owns any shares in the Issuer. To the extent any person identified in Appendix A hereto qualifies as a qualifying shareholder of Tencent as of the Record Date for purposes of the Distribution, he or she will be entitled to receive the corresponding number of Class A Shares upon the completion of the Distribution.

There has been no transaction in the Ordinary Shares by the Reporting Persons or, to the best of knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any of the persons identified in Appendix A hereto during the past 60 days.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

Item 6 of the Statement is hereby amended by incorporating by reference the description under Item 4. The foregoing description of the Distribution does not purport to be a complete description of the terms thereof and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of announcement of Tencent filed as Exhibit 11 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 7 of the Statement is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following exhibit:
