The company's outstanding losses exceeded one-third of the total paid in share capital, mainly due to the company's significant losses in 2019, 2020 and 2021.
The main reasons for the loss in 2021 are as follows:
Business decline due to the impact of the epidemic: due to the repeated regional impact of covid-19 epidemic, the offline business of vocational education cannot resume work and classes on time, resulting in the recovery of business sales order turnover not up to expectations and the delay of teaching delivery progress; At the same time, the company's online business scale accounts for a relatively small proportion, which can not offset the impact of the decline of offline business. As a result, the overall operating income of the company recovered slowly and continued to suffer significant losses.
Provision for impairment of Goodwill: due to the continuous impact of the epidemic, the further intensification of competition in the vocational education market and the actual operation of the company's vocational education sector, the company made a total provision for impairment of goodwill of 562324 million yuan in the reporting period, accounting for 12.20% of the net profit attributable to the shareholders of the parent company in the current period.
3、 Proposed measures

1. Actively respond to the repeated epidemic, and focus on strengthening the management of class elimination
In 2021, the company focused on promoting the business recovery in the post epidemic era. However, due to the repeated impact of the epidemic and the high proportion of education and training services under the middle line of the existing business structure, the average output value of the company's single school has not returned to the normal level, and the teaching delivery process has been greatly affected, resulting in the continued rise of the company's contract liability balance in the reporting period, reaching 603 million yuan by the end of 2021.
Although the epidemic continues to repeat regionally, under the strong control of our party and the Chinese government, the management expects that the impact of the epidemic in China is unsustainable and mankind will eventually overcome the epidemic.
