To improve the company's future sustainable operation ability:
(1) Actively adjust the business direction.
Under the premise of good control of the epidemic situation, carrying out China tourism business, although the income scale is relatively small compared with the volume of outbound tourism, it can still ensure that the company can maintain a certain amount of business income related to its main business and avoid touching the red line standard of delisting.
(2) Adjust personnel structure and reduce costs.
In the case of rapid business contraction, the business sales personnel were reduced on the basis of retaining the business backbone, the salary of back office personnel was reduced on the basis of mutual understanding and support, and the fixed cost was greatly reduced. (3) Coordinate the relationship between debtors and investors to ensure normal cash flow.
At the level of shareholders of listed companies, the company coordinates investors from all parties, continuously introduces strategic shareholders such as Ali, and improves the company's financing environment and liquidity; Further expand financing channels, and plan to refinance through non-public issuance of new shares to ensure the healthy and stable development of the company's business; At the company level, it actively seeks the support of the municipal government. In the future, it is expected to optimize the debt structure through relevant measures, reduce short-term liabilities, increase long-term liabilities and reduce the pressure of short-term debt repayment.
In February 2022, 14 departments including the national development and Reform Commission issued the notice on several policies on promoting the recovery and development of difficult industries in the service industry, which defined the relief and support measures for the tourism industry, required travel agencies to temporarily withdraw the support policy for the deposit of tourism service quality, and strengthened bank enterprise cooperation.
