We expect Tongcheng Travel’s revenue to return to growth as China relaxes its reopening policies, which should allow its citizens to travel with fewer restrictions. We expect near-term revenue to increase modestly, driven by recovery of the travel industry. Assuming no return of lockdown headwinds in China, we expect Tongcheng’s revenue to increase 10%-15% per year in the near to midterm.
Tongcheng has very low penetration of Tier 3 cities and has less than 30% saturation rate in its target market.
Reopening may not be as smooth as expected, leading to a prolonged slump in travel.
