The earnings call indicates strong revenue growth from packaged tours and outbound tours, driven by diverse product offerings and successful integration of AI technologies. Despite an increase in operating expenses, net income remains positive, and cash flow is strong. The company is expanding its offline stores and live streaming channels, suggesting a robust market strategy. While there are risks related to emerging sales channels and supply chain, the optimistic guidance and positive Q&A session responses support a positive sentiment. The absence of market cap data suggests a moderate reaction, leading to a 2%-8% stock price increase.
Net Revenues CNY 134.9 million, representing a year-over-year increase of 15%. The increase was driven by growth in transaction volume and the number of trips during the holiday period.
Revenues from Packaged Tours CNY 113.4 million, up 26% year-over-year, accounting for 84% of total net revenues. The growth was primarily due to the increase in organized tours and self-drive tours.
Other Revenues CNY 21.5 million, down 21% year-over-year, accounting for 16% of total net revenues. The decline was attributed to a decrease in fees for advertising services provided to tourism boards and bureaus.

Sales and Marketing Expenses CNY 45 million, up 12% year-over-year. The increase was due to higher personnel-related expenses and promotion expenses.
General and Administrative Expenses CNY 17.8 million, down 18% year-over-year. The decrease was primarily due to the reversal of current expected credit losses allowance.

The earnings call presents mixed signals: strong revenue growth from packaged tours and AI integration are positive, but the net loss and increased expenses are concerning. The Q&A reveals optimism for future profitability but lacks specific guidance. The absence of a share repurchase program and a decline in gross profit further neutralize the outlook. Given these factors, the stock price is likely to remain stable, resulting in a neutral sentiment.
The earnings call reflects mixed signals: a slight revenue increase and special dividend are positive, but declining gross profit and unclear future guidance are concerning. The Q&A highlighted management's vague responses about 2025 projections, adding uncertainty. While share repurchases and dividends positively impact shareholder sentiment, rising competition and lack of clear guidance on profitability limit optimism. Therefore, the overall sentiment remains neutral, with no strong catalysts for significant stock price movement.
