Total revenues were RMB235.1 million (US$34.7 million)[1], an 18.7% year-over-year decrease.
Hotel revenues were RMB204.6 million (US$30.2 million)[1], a 16.2% year-over-year decrease due to a 9.1% year-over-year decrease in RevPAR and a net closure of 13 L&O hotels since the second quarter of 2025 due to lease expiration and strategic reviews. The decrease was partially offset by revenues from new openings.
Restaurant revenues were RMB30.5 million (US$4.5 million)[1], a 33.5% year-over-year decrease, mainly due to a 20.3% decrease in ADS and a net closure of 2 L&O stores since the second quarter of 2025 due to strategic reviews, offset by revenues from new F&M store openings.
Total revenues for the first six months of 2026 were RMB462.8 million (US$68.2 million)[1], a 16.5% year-over-year decrease.
3 / 16
Total revenues from leased-and-operated, or L&O, hotels and restaurants were RMB95.9 million (US$14.1 million)[1], a 28.5% year-over-year decrease.
Total revenues from L&O hotels were RMB77.6 million (US$11.4 million)[1], a 26.8% year-over-year decrease. The decrease was primarily attributable to a 15.3% year-over-year decrease in the second quarter RevPAR of L&O hotels, a net closure of 13 L&O hotels since the second quarter of 2025, and the reduction in sublease revenues resulting from the closure of L&O hotels.
Total revenues from L&O restaurants were RMB18.2 million (US$2.7 million)[1], a 35.7% year-over-year decrease, mainly due to a net closure of 2 L&O stores and the year-over-year decrease of 15.1% in L&O store’s ADS.
Total revenues from L&O hotels and restaurants for the first six months of 2026 were RMB190.4 million (US$28.1 million)[1], a 24.7% year-over-year decrease.
Total revenues from franchised-and-managed, or F&M, hotels and restaurants were RMB126.8 million (US$18.7 million)[1], an 8.8% year-over-year decrease.
Total revenues from F&M hotels were RMB126.3 million (US$18.6 million)[1], an 8.2% year-over-year decrease, primarily due to an 8.8% decrease in F&M hotels’ RevPAR, an exemption of management fees for hotels facing business difficulties, and a decline of RMB3.0 million in membership revenues. For comparability, the year-over-year change is presented on a basis that applies the same fee-exemption treatment to the corresponding period of 2025. The decrease in membership revenues was partially due to the amortization cycle started from the pandemic period three years ago, in which the sales of membership cards were historically under-performed.
Total revenues from F&M restaurants were RMB0.5 million (US$74,498.4)[1], a 64.4% year-over-year decrease, mainly due to a decrease of 12.8% in the ADS of F&M stores and an exemption of management fees.
Total revenues from F&M hotels and restaurants for the first six months of 2026 were RMB242.1 million (US$35.7 million)[1], an 8.5% year-over-year decrease.
Total revenues from wholesale and others were RMB12.5 million (US$1.8 million)[1], a 22.9% year-over-year decrease, mainly due to the decline in the wholesale segment of the restaurant business.
Total revenues from wholesale and others for the first six months of 2026 were RMB30.4 million (US$4.5 million)[1], a 16.9% year-over-year decrease.

Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term investments, investments in equity securities and time deposits.

The decrease was mainly due to investment on purchase of equipment for newly opened L&O hotels and loans for the renovation of newly opened resort hotels from strategic reviews, partially offset by cash from operating activities.
Guidance
Based on our performance in the first half year, we maintain our previous revenue guidance for the hotel business, that we expect revenue to decrease by 10% to 15% year over year for the year of 2026. The guidance set forth above reflects the Company’s current and preliminary views based on its recovery and may not be indicative of the final financial results for any future periods or the full year.
Recent Development
In 2025, we entered into an agreement to acquire a hotel property located opposite the Twin Towers in Malaysia for strategic purposes. This property was handed over in July 2026 and will serve as our flagship asset to scale our hotel network across Malaysia and the broader Southeast Asian market.
In 2025, we entered into a letter of intent to acquire a landmark property along the Huangpu River waterfront in Yangpu District, Shanghai, and subsequently won the bid for the property through a competitive bidding process. The property is planned to be developed into the Company’s signature flagship hotel in Shanghai, anchoring our mid-to-up-scale strategy at one of the city's prime riverfront locations. Beyond hotel operations, the property will feature a curated regional lifestyle center with food-and-beverage and other amenities designed to complement the hotel, enhance the guest experience and generate additional recurring revenue streams, while one floor will house the Company's corporate offices. The remaining closing procedures are expected to be completed before the end of the third quarter of 2026, subject to customary closing conditions.

Share Repurchase Program
The Board of Directors has approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to US$5 million of its Class A ordinary shares over a two-year period, effective from the date of approval. Repurchases may be conducted through open market transactions at prevailing market prices, privately negotiated transactions, block trades or other legally permitted methods, at the Company’s discretion, subject to market conditions, applicable securities laws and regulations, and the trading price of the Company’s ADSs. The program may be suspended, modified or terminated at any time at the Board’s discretion without prior notice.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We believe that Adjusted EBITDA and core net income, as we present them, are useful financial metrics to assess our operating and financial performance before the impact of investing and financing transactions, income taxes and certain non-core and non-recurring items in our financial statements.
The presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and core net income should not be construed as an indication that our future results will be unaffected by other charges and gains we consider to be outside the ordinary course of our business.
The use of Adjusted EBITDA and core net income has certain limitations because it does not reflect all items of income and expenses that affect our operations. Items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA and core net income are significant components in understanding and assessing our operating and financial performance. Depreciation and amortization expense for various long-term assets, income tax and share-based compensation have been and will be incurred and are not reflected in the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA. Each of these items should also be considered in the overall evaluation of our results. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA and core net income do not consider capital expenditures and other investing activities and should not be considered as a measure of our liquidity. We compensate for these limitations by providing the relevant disclosure of our depreciation and amortization, interest expense/income, gains/losses from investments in equity securities, income tax expenses, share-based compensation, share of loss in equity investees, subsidies and other relevant items both in our reconciliations to the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measures and in our consolidated financial statements, all of which should be considered when evaluating our performance.
The terms Adjusted EBITDA and core net income are not defined under U.S. GAAP, and Adjusted EBITDA and core net income are not measures of net income, operating income, operating performance or liquidity presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. When assessing our operating and financial performance, you should not consider this data in isolation or as a substitute for our net income, operating income or any other operating performance measure that is calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, our Adjusted EBITDA and core net income may not be comparable to Adjusted EBITDA and core net income or similarly titled measures utilized by other companies since such other companies may not calculate Adjusted EBITDA and core net income in the same manner as we do.
Reconciliations of the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA and core net income, to the consolidated statement of operations information are included at the end of this press release.
