BRIEF: Atour posts strong revenue, profit gains as travel rebound slows

ATAT.US

Hotel operator Atour Lifestyle Holdings Ltd. (ATAT.US) reported on Tuesday its revenue rose 47% year-on-year to 1.9 billion yuan ($262 million) in the third quarter, driven by strong growth for its managed hotels and retail businesses.

Revenue from the company’s managed hotels business rose 51% to 1.18 billion yuan, accounting for 62% of its total. Revenue from its retail business, which lets guests buy items displayed in their rooms, doubled to 480 million, accounting for about a quarter of its revenue. Those strong gains offset a 20.4% decline to 190 million yuan for its self-operated hotels, its other main business line.

The company’s revenue per available room (revpar) fell 10% to 380 yuan in the third quarter from 424 yuan a year earlier as China’s strong post-pandemic travel rebound showed signs of losing momentum. The company’s third-quarter profit rose 45% year-on-year to 381 million yuan.

Atour’s shares fell 5.7% in Tuesday trading in New York after the announcement.

A fintech lender rebound, and a hotel mess

Fintech lenders are entering a new golden era, with Jiayin reporting 46% growth for its core consumer lending business in last year's fourth quarter and forecasting similar gains this year. What's driving this rebound? And hotelier H World is still trying to fix a German acquisition from 2019 that wiped out its profit in the fourth quarter of last year.
