Jin Hui, CEO of H World commented: “During the second quarter, a large-scale outbreak of the Omicron variant in China again significantly affected our China business, especially in April and May due to the extensive lockdowns in various cities. However, with a gradual lifting of the lockdowns since late May 2022, our RevPAR started to recover and improved to 86% of the 2019 level in June 2022, and further improved to 90% of the 2019 level in July 2022. Although COVID has been affecting our business from time to time over the last two-and-a-half years, our long-term strategy remains intact. In order to further increase our hotel coverage and penetration rate in China, we need to move our organization and management closer to the local market. Therefore, in the second quarter, we established six regional headquarters and shifted from brand-based to regional-based organizational structure for our economy and midscale brands. By doing so, we believe we can become even closer to our local customers, franchisees, and employees, and create more value for all of them in a more efficient, agile, and precise manner. Moreover, localized management and operational capabilities would achieve better regional synergy and result in higher operational efficiency. Different from the approach we adopted for the economy and midscale segments, we are keeping our brand-based organizational structure unchanged for our upper-midscale and upscale brands due to the importance of differentiated brand positioning and a unique customer experience for each of our upper-midscale and upscale brands. Lastly, as we mentioned before, we will no longer develop soft brands in the economy segment in the future. We will accelerate our exit from this particular segment through retiring our existing hotels in the next one to two years, thereby continuously enhancing the overall quality of hotels in our network. It also closely aligns with our long-term ‘Sustainable Quality Growth’ strategy.”
“In Europe, the DH business further improved in the second quarter with RevPAR recovering to 93% of the 2019 level. This upward trend continued in July. However, against the background of surging inflation in Europe and the resulting substantial increase in costs as well as uncertainties about the future development of COVID and energy supplies, a comprehensive cash flow improvement program remains critical. Therefore, DH’s near-term focus will remain on efficiency improvements, renegotiation of further lease waivers, and personnel cost optimization.”

COVID update
For our Legacy-Huazhu business, the large-scale outbreak of the Omicron variant in China since early-March 2022 led to extensive lockdowns in various cities and a sharp decline in the demand for both business and leisure travel. As a result, our RevPAR in the second quarter of 2022 only recovered to 69% of the 2019 level. Breaking down into each month, April and May 2022 were the hardest-hit months with RevPAR only having reached to 53% and 65% of the 2019 levels, respectively. However, RevPAR improved in June 2022 to 86% of the 2019 level due to a gradual lift of lockdowns since late May 2022. In addition, if we consider the impact of requisitioned hotels, our RevPAR recovery in Q2 2022 would have been 75% of the 2019 level.
DH have seen an accelerating RevPAR recovery in Q2 2022. While RevPAR in March 2022 was 35% lower than the 2019 level, June 2022 RevPAR was only 1% lower than the 2019 level. However, against the background of surging inflation in Europe and the resulting substantial increase in costs as well as uncertainties about the future development of COVID and energy supplies, DH has been focusing on cash flow improvement measures. As a result, DH will continue to focus on efficiency improvements, re-negotiation of lease contracts, and personnel cost optimization.
Guidance
Since March 2022, the highly infectious Omicron variant has been spreading rapidly in China which has seriously affected our near-term business performance. In addition, the current COVID prevention policy has rendered business performance more unpredictable for the foreseeable future. Under such circumstances, we will suspend providing or updating guidance in terms of annual revenue and hotel openings until the situation improves. Nevertheless, we will continue to provide quarterly guidance based on our best understanding of the most recent situation.
In the third quarter of 2022, H World expects revenue to increase 13% to 17% compared to the third quarter of 2021, or to increase 5% to 9% if excluding DH.
The above forecast reflects the Company’s current and preliminary view, which is subject to change.
