Second Quarter
of 2024 Operational
Highlights
Hotels
- A total of 4,272 hotels with 312,734 hotel rooms were in
operation as of June 30, 2024.
- The Company opened 44 hotels and had a pipeline of 1,022 hotels
contracted for or under development as of June 30, 2024.
- The average daily room rate was RMB173, a decrease of 4.3% from
RMB181 in the second quarter of 2023.
- The occupancy rate was 72.5%, down from 77.8% in the
second quarter of 2023.
- Revenue per available room, or RevPAR, was RMB125, a 10.8% year-over-year
decrease.
Restaurants
- A total of 183 restaurants were in operation as of
June 30, 2024.

a 6.0% year-over-year decrease.
- The ADT (average daily tickets) was 90,

"In the second quarter, we faced challenges as China's economy continued to recover. We
believe both consumers and businesses exercised caution in
discretionary spending, which had a negative impact on our overall
performance. However, we continued to upgrade a number of hotels in
our portfolio in order to better respond to increasing competition.
While we believe this will help our performance in the future,
second quarter hotel revenues decreased 14.8% year-over-year.
We continued to execute on our strategy to return our restaurant
business to profitability by moving away from leased-and-operated
restaurants in supermarkets and regional shopping centers towards
franchised street stores. As a result, the net income turned
positive this quarter after breaking even last quarter compared to
losses in both corresponding quarters a year ago. Our focus is now
fully on growing the number of franchised street stores and stores
with stable consumer traffic," said Mr. Alex S. Xu, Chairman and Chief Executive Office
of GreenTree.

Total revenues were RMB329.7
million (US$45.4
million)[1],a 20.5% year-over-year decrease.
Hotel revenues of 2024 were RMB264.6 million (US$36.4
million)[1], a 14.8% year-over-year decrease.
There were two major reasons: first, a 10.8% year-over-year
decrease in Revpar ; second, the closure of 5 L&O hotels in the
second quarter due to lease expiration and strategic decisions; and
partially setoff by new openings.
Restaurant revenues were of 2024 RMB65.3 million
(US$9.0 million)[1], a
37.8% year-over-year decrease, mainly due to lower ADS and the
decrease in the number of L&O stores due to the closure of
unprofitable L&O stores.
Total revenues for the first half of 2024 were RMB681.9 million (US$93.8
million)[1], a 14.1% year-over-year decrease.
Total revenues from leased-and-operated, or L&O,
hotels and restaurants were RMB149.2 million (US$20.5 million)[1], a 28.9%
year-over-year decrease.
Total revenues from L&O hotels were RMB105.9 million (US$14.6 million)[1], a 19.5%
year-over-year decrease. The decrease was primarily attributable to
a 7.3% year-over-year decrease in the second quarter RevPAR of
L&O hotels, 5 L&O hotels closed and reduction
of sublease revenues mainly due to the disposal of a
property.
Total revenues from L&O restaurants were RMB43.3 million (US$6.0 million)[1], a 45.2%
year-over-year decrease, mainly due to the closure of L&O
restaurants since the third quarter of 2023 and the year-over-year
decrease in ADS.
Total revenues from L&O hotels and restaurants for the first
half of 2024 were RMB318.1
million (US$43.8 million)[1],
a 16.5% year-over-year decrease.
Total revenues from franchised-and-managed, or F&M,
hotels and restaurants were RMB160.0 million (US$22.0
million)[1], a 11.2% year-over-year
decrease.
Total revenues from F&M hotels were RMB157.8 million (US$21.7
million)[1], a 11.3% year-over-year decrease,
primary due to a 10.9% decrease in F&M hotels'
Revpar and remodeling.
Total revenues from F&M restaurants were RMB2.2 million (US$0.3
million)[1], a 1.5% year-over-year
increase, as we opened more F&M stores.
Total revenues from F&M hotels and restaurants for the first
half of 2024 were RMB312.7 million (US$43.0 million)[1], a 10.8%
year-over-year decrease.
Total revenues from wholesale and others were
RMB17.8% year-over-year decrease, mainly due to the decline in the
wholesale segment of the restaurant business.

million)[1], a 18.6% year-over-year decrease.

Guidance
Considering our performance during the first half of the year
and the impact of closing certain L&O hotels due to lease
expirations and strategic decisions, we have revised our revenue
guidance for the hotel business. We now anticipate its performance
in 2024 to remain flat compared to 2023.
The guidance set forth above reflects the Company's current and
preliminary views based on its recovery and may not be indicative
of the final financial results for any future periods or the full
year.
Dividend distribution
The board of directors has approved the payment of a cash
dividend of US$0.10 per ordinary
share, or US$0.10 per American
Depositary Sahre("ADS") payable to holders of the Company's
ordinary shares shown on the Company's record at the close of
trading on September 30,2024(the

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We believe that Adjusted EBITDA and core net income, as we
present them, are useful financial metrics to assess our operating
and financial performance before the impact of investing and
financing transactions, income taxes and certain non-core and
non-recurring items in our financial statements.
The presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and core net income should
not be construed as an indication that our future results will be
unaffected by other charges and gains we consider to be outside the
ordinary course of our business.
The use of Adjusted EBITDA and core net income has certain
limitations because it does not reflect all items of income and
expenses that affect our operations. Items excluded from Adjusted
EBITDA and core net income are significant components in
understanding and assessing our operating and financial
performance. Depreciation and amortization expense for various
long-term assets, income tax and share-based compensation have been
and will be incurred and are not reflected in the presentation of
Adjusted EBITDA. Each of these items should also be considered in
the overall evaluation of our results. Additionally, Adjusted
EBITDA and core net income do not consider capital expenditures and
other investing activities and should not be considered as a
measure of our liquidity. We compensate for these limitations by
providing the relevant disclosure of our depreciation and
amortization, interest expense/income, gains/losses from
investments in equity securities, income tax expenses, share-based
compensation, share of loss in equity investees, government
subsidies and other relevant items both in our reconciliations to
the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measures and in our
consolidated financial statements, all of which should be
considered when evaluating our performance.
The terms Adjusted EBITDA and core net income are not defined
under U.S. GAAP, and Adjusted EBITDA and core net income are not
measures of net income, operating income, operating performance or
liquidity presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. When assessing
our operating and financial performance, you should not consider
this data in isolation or as a substitute for our net income,
operating income or any other operating performance measure that is
calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, our Adjusted
EBITDA and core net income may not be comparable to Adjusted EBITDA
and core net income or similarly titled measures utilized by other
companies since such other companies may not calculate Adjusted
EBITDA and core net income in the same manner as we do.
Reconciliations of the Company's non-GAAP financial measures,
including Adjusted EBITDA and core net income, to the consolidated
statement of operations information are included at the end of this
press release.
