Jin Hui: Dear investors and analysts, good day. Thanks for joining us today. Welcome to H World Group's second quarter 2026 earnings conference call. During the H1 of 2026, domestic culture and tourism travel in China maintained steady growth. According to the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, domestic resident trips reached 3.5 billion in the H1, representing a 5.4% year-over-year increase. As visa-free policy for multiple countries continued to take effect, inbound tourism gained strong momentum, bringing new growth opportunities to China's lodging industry. On the consumption structural front, the growth of total domestic travel spending moderated, up 2% year over year to RMB 3.2 trillion in the H1. This reflects new consumption characteristics among travelers, which were more frequent trips with more prudent spending decisions.

Ivy He-Yi Liu: This concludes the business update for the second quarter of 2026. I will now hand over the call to our CFO, Mr. Arthur Yu, for financial performance for the quarter.
Speaker #3: This concludes the business update for the second quarter of 2026. I will now hand over the call to our CFO, Mr. Arthur Yu, for the financial performance for the quarter.
Speaker #2: Thank you, Hui Jin. Good evening and good morning to everyone. Now, let's walk through our Q2 financial highlights. In the second quarter, our group revenue grew 10.8% year-over-year to RMB 7.1 billion.
Arthur Yu: Thank you, Jinhui.
Arthur Yu: Good evening and good morning to everyone. Now let's walk through our Q2 financial highlights. In the second quarter, our group revenue grew 10.8% year-over-year to RMB 7.1 billion. This was primarily driven by our China business. In the quarter, our China revenue increased 14.9% year-over-year to RMB 5.9 billion, supported by a steady and high quality network expansion as well as continued RevPAR recovery. Our international business revenue decreasing 5.8% year-over-year to RMB 1.3 billion, which was due to the closure of leased hotel and therefore a decline in lease revenue. We are happy to report that our group recorded another quarter of strong profit growth. Adjusted EBITDA increased 20% year-over-year to RMB 2.7 billion, with adjusted EBITDA margin expanding 3 percentage points year-over-year to 38.3%. The margin improvement was attributable to a growing profit contribution from our asset light business, coupled with well controlled G&A expenses. In the second quarter, hotel operating costs increased 7.4% year-over-year, slower than our revenue growth as we became more asset light. SG&A expenses in the quarter rose 6.1% year-over-year, which was also slower than our revenue growth, reflecting our cost management capabilities. Adjusted net income grew 26.9% year-over-year to RMB 1.7 billion, with the adjusted net income margin improved 3 percentage points to 24%. Supported by ongoing high quality asset light network expansion and improved RevPAR performance, our M&F business revenue grew a solid 24.2% year-over-year to RMB 3.6 billion. M&F gross operating profit increased 18.5% year-over-year to RMB 2.2 billion. Lastly, on shareholder returns, we are very pleased to announce that we completed our 2024 shareholder return one year ahead of our plan. We are committed to returning to our shareholders, which will continue to be supported by our healthy operating cash flow and strong balance sheet. We therefore announce that the board has approved another three year shareholder return plan with an aggregated amount of $2.5 billion effective from today. As the first distribution under this new shareholder return plan, the board has also approved an ordinary cash dividend of approximately $275 million. With that, we conclude our financial review for the second quarter of 2026.
Speaker #2: This was primarily driven by our China business. In the quarter, our China revenue increased 14.9% year over year to RMB 5.9 billion, supported by a steady and high-quality network expansion, as well as continued RevPAR recovery.

Speaker #2: Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded by 3 percentage points year over year to 38.3%. The margin improvement was attributable to a growing profit contribution from our asset-light business, coupled with well-controlled G&A expenses.
Speaker #2: In the second quarter, hotel operating costs increased 7.4% year over year, slower than our revenue growth, as we became more asset-light. SG&A expenses in the quarter rose 6.1% year over year, which was also slower than our revenue growth, reflecting our cost management capabilities.
Speaker #2: Adjusted net income grew 26.9% year over year to RMB 1.7 billion, with the adjusted net income margin improving 3 percentage points to 24%. Supported by ongoing high-quality asset-light network expansion and improved RERPA performance, our M&F business revenue grew a solid 24.2% year over year to RMB 3.6 billion.
Speaker #2: M&F growth operating profit increased 18.5% year over year to RMB 2.2 billion. Lastly, on shareholder returns, we are very pleased to announce that we completed our 2024 shareholder return one year ahead of our plan.
Speaker #2: We are committed to returning value to our shareholders, which will continue to be supported by our healthy operating cash flow and strong balance sheet. We therefore announce that the Board has approved another three-year shareholder return plan, with an aggregate amount of $2.5 billion.
Speaker #2: Effective from today, as the first distribution under this new shareholder return plan, the Board has also approved an ordinary cash dividend of approximately $275 million.

My question is mainly on the RevPAR trend. Into the quarter, we observed a volatile travel demand affected by the extreme weather, especially during this peak summer season. Could you share the RevPAR performance during the summer holiday and also into H2 base goes are relative higher. What is management's latest expectation on the Q3 and also full year RevPAR trend? 感谢。
Speaker #3: My question is mainly on the RERPA trend. So, into the quarter, we observed volatile travel demand affected by extreme weather, especially during this peak summer season.
Speaker #3: Could you share the RERPA performance during the summer holiday and also into the second half, base goals relatively higher? What is management's latest expectation on the third quarter and also the full-year RERPA trend?
Speaker #3: 感谢。
Speaker #2: 好，谢谢提问。我是金辉，我来回答这个问题。目前应该讲，中国的旅游休闲这个需求还是处于一个持续增长。我们非常坚信的一点就是，中国的消费者已经把旅游休闲作为他们的刚需，这个在疫情以后表现得非常的明确。第二方面，政府非常鼓励支持文旅出行。今年上半年推出的各地的春假，以及在八月初推行的公务员休假的这样的一个制度。第三个，当然毫无疑问，我们在这一轮里面看到了大量的新型的休闲旅游的客源和场景，家庭游、银发游、自驾游表现得也非常的强劲。当然，入境游也带来了非常大的增量市场，尤其对一二线的核心城市。七月份的确受到了，sorry。
Jin Hui: 好，谢谢提问。我是金辉，我来回答这个问题。目前中国的旅游休闲需求还是处于一个持续增长。我们非常坚信的一点就是中国的消费者已经把旅游休闲作为他们的刚需，这个在疫情以后表现得非常的明确。第二方面，政府非常鼓励支持文旅出行。今年上半年推出的各地的春假，及在8月初推行的公务员休假这样一个制度。第三个当然毫无疑问，我们在这一轮里面看到了大量的新型的休闲旅游的客源和场景，家庭游、银发游、自驾游表现得也非常的强劲。当然入境游也带来了非常大的增量市场，尤其对一二线的核心城市。七月份的确受到了——
Ivy He-Yi Liu: Sorry, I will translate first. Thank you for your question. This is Jin Hui, I will answer this question. Currently, China's leisure travel demand is still steadily growing. We firmly believe that in China, consumer has treated leisure travel as one of the necessities. This has been very clear after the COVID reopening. Secondly, the government is very supportive of the culture and tourism travel. In H1 this year, we do see multiple regional governments introducing spring holidays. In early August, we also saw government encouraging public servants to take holidays. Certainly around this round of leisure travel trend, we do see new scenarios and new customers emerging. For example, family trips, travel by silver hairs, travel by self-driving, those both have been performing very strong.
Speaker #3: I will translate first. So, thank you for your question. This is Jin Hui. I will answer this question. Currently, China's leisure travel demand is still steadily growing. We firmly believe that in China, consumers have treated leisure travel as one of the necessities.
Speaker #3: This has been very clear after the COVID reopening. Secondly, the government is very supportive of the culture and tourism travel. In the first half of this year, we did see multiple regional governments introducing spring holidays, and in early August, we also saw the government encouraging public servants to take holidays.
Speaker #3: And thirdly, around this round of leisure travel trends, we do see new scenarios and new customers emerging. For example, family trips, travel by silver hares, and travel by self-driving—these have also both been performing very strongly.
Speaker #3: Of course, inbound travel has also brought us increasing demand, especially in those core cities, in the tier one and tier two cities.
Ivy He-Yi Liu: Of course, inbound travel has also brought us increasing demand, especially in those core cities in the Tier 1 and Tier 2 cities.
Speaker #2: 七月份受到某些地区的极端天气影响，的确对经营产生了很大的影响，因而导致部分市场的暑期上半段的业绩表现低于预期。当然，我认为也受到了部分春假的平移的影响，但八月份目前来看整体趋势是回暖的。考虑到整个外部的环境的变化和不确定性，我们对整体的需求还是保持一个谨慎乐观的态度。所以对2026年全年我们维持 RERPA 微增的目标，目前不变。
Jin Hui: 七月份受到某些地区的极端天气影响，的确对经营产生了很大的影响，导致部分市场的暑期上半段的业绩表现低于预期。当然，我认为也受到了部分春假的平移的影响。但八月份目前来看，整体趋势是回暖。考虑到整个外部的环境的变化和不确定性，我们对整体的需求还是保持一个谨慎乐观的态度。所以对2026年全年，我们维持RevPAR增长的目标目前不变。
Speaker #3: So yes, as you mentioned, I mean, in July we did see several regions be negatively affected by severe weather, and it impacted operational results.
Ivy He-Yi Liu: Yes, as you mentioned, in July, we do see several regions being negatively affected by those severe weather, and it impacted operational results. In some of the markets for the H1 of the summer holiday, the performance was below expectation. Also, on the other hand, I do think that this is also partially affected by the spring holiday. In August, so far, we do see the overall trend recovering. Considering all the uncertainties in the macro environment, we maintain a cautiously optimistic view for the overall demand. For the full year of 2026, we maintain our view for the overall RevPAR unchanged.
Speaker #3: In some of the markets, for the first half of the summer holiday, the performance was below expectation. Also, on the other hand, I do think that this was also partially affected by the spring holiday.

Operator: We will take our next question. Your next question comes from Dan Ji from Morgan Stanley. Please go ahead. Your line is open.
Speaker #2: 各位管理层晚上好，我是大摩的 Dan。我有两个问题。第一个是围绕开店的，就是华筑中国上半年我们看到毛开店是一天零三十五家，那刚刚金总也提到了我们会坚定迈进全年这个两千二到两千三家的这样的一个目标，这个非常清楚。我的问题是想从季节性上看，去年的上半年的开店有接近一千三百家毛开店，占全年比较大的头。那在上下半年这种季节性开店最佳时间是不是有一些结构性的变化跟去年？我的第二个问题是关于经济型酒店的取证，就是刚才看到汉庭三点五或以上的版本更新已经达到了百分之五十五，那么今年年前公司推出了新的这个汉庭快捷，还有那个全新的汉庭四点零的一些进展。我们我想问一下这边有没有一些更新的进度，比如说像数量上或者是产品迭代后运营上的一些提升，好吗？那我翻译一下。 This is Dan from Morgan Stanley. I have two questions. My first question is on hotel opening. We saw gross opening in first half twenty-six was one thousand and thirty-five hotels, although on track with Mr. Jin's reassurance on full year target of two point two to two point three thousand, it is twenty percent below first half last year.
Dan Ji: 各位管理层晚上好，我是大摩的Dan，我有两个问题。第一个是围绕开店的，就是华住中国上半年我们看到毛开店是1,035家。刚刚金总也提到了，我们会坚定迈进全年2,200到2,300家的这样一个目标，这个非常清楚。我的问题是想从季节性上看，去年的上半年的开店有接近1,300家毛开店，占全年比较大的头。那在上下半年这种季节性开店最佳时间是不是有一些结构性的变化跟去年？我的第二个问题是关于经济型酒店的取证，就是刚才看到汉庭3.5或以上的版本更新已经达到了55%。今年年前公司推出了新的汉庭快捷，还有全新的汉庭4.0的一些进展。我想问一下这边有没有一些更新的进度，比如说像数量上，或者是产品迭代后运营上的一些提升。好吧，那我翻译一下。This is Dan from Morgan Stanley. I have two questions.
Dan Ji: My first question is on hotel opening. We saw gross opening in H1 2026 was 1,035 hotels. Although on track with Mr. Ding's reassurance on full year target of 2,200 to 2,300, it is 20% below H1 last year. Is there any structural change in the contribution of the two halves in the year seasonality-wise? That was my first question. My second question is about economy segment upgrade HanTing 产品, 我们看到现在已经超过55%是3.5版本及以上。请问管理层能否分享一下最新版4.0的进展以及HanTing Inn的数量或运营方面的改善? Thank you. 谢谢.
Speaker #2: Is there any structural change in the contribution of the two halves in a year, seasonality-wise? That was my first question. My second question is about the economy segment upgrade.
Speaker #2: For the Han Ting product, we see that now more than 55 percent are version 3.5 and above. Can the management share some progress made on the latest addition of 4.0?
Speaker #2: And Han Ting in such as quantity or operating improvements? Thank you. 谢谢。 OK，谢谢 Dan 的问题。我来回答一下。第一呢，我先回答一下关于整个二季度华筑在开业方面的一些情况。华筑二季度呢，新开门店是四百九十八家店，开店数量呢基本符合公司的规划和预期。二季度的签约表现也非常稳健，截止六月底呢，华筑管道内酒店同比和环比均有所提升。在这个过程当中呢，华筑我想非常强调一点，华筑不仅仅是要强调规模量的发展，更是希望实现实质的提升。我们对目前新签约和新开业门店的提出了更高的要求，而且这个高质量发展的战略呢，我们将会坚持在未来几年始终如一的贯彻。整个呢，我们应该讲，我将维持整个全年的开放店的指引呢，目前不变。确实上半年的开业数字可能会受到同期基数和一些供应链这个开业的一些阶段影响，我觉得整体还是在预测以内，是属于符合预期的一个状态。谢谢，这是第一个问题。
Jin Hui: OK，谢谢Dan的问题，我来回答一下。第一，我先回答一下关于整个二季度华住在开业方面的一些情况。华住二季度新开门店是498家店，开店数量基本符合公司的规划和预期。二季度的签约表现也非常稳健。截止6月底，华住管道内酒店同比和环比均有所提升。在这个过程当中，我想强调一点，华住不仅仅是要强调规模量的发展，更是希望实现质的提升。我们对目前新签约和新开业门店提出了更高的要求，而且这个高质量发展的战略，我们将会坚持在未来几年始终如一地贯彻。我们应该讲，将维持整个全年的开店指引目前不变。确实，上半年的开业数值可能会受到同期基数和一些供应链开业的一些阶段影响。我觉得整体还在预测以内，是属于符合预期的一个状态。谢谢，这是第一个问题。
Ivy He-Yi Liu: Thank you, Dan, for your question. On the overall new hotel network expansion, in Q2, we opened 498 hotels. The number of openings is actually in line with our plan and our expectation. More importantly, if you look at the new signings, we also achieved solid new signings in Q2. As end of June, the number of hotels in our pipeline actually increased both quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year. We always emphasize that for each quarter, what we want to achieve is not just very simple quantity growth, but quality improvement. We do have higher requirements for our new signings and the new openings. In the next few years, we will continue our sustainable high-quality growth strategy unchanged. For the full year of 2026, we maintain our full year opening guidance.
Speaker #3: questions. So on the overall new hotel network expansion, in the second quarter we opened four hundred and ninety-eight hotels. The number of openings is actually in line with our plan and our expectation.
Speaker #3: And more importantly, if you look at the new signings, we also achieved solid new signings in the second quarter. As of the end of June, the number of hotels in our pipeline actually increased both quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year.
Speaker #3: And we always emphasize that, for aged folks, what we want to achieve is not just simple quantity growth, but quality improvement. So we do have higher requirements for our new signings and new openings.
Speaker #3: In the next few years, we will continue our sustainable, high-quality growth strategy unchanged. And for the full year of 2026, we maintain our full-year opening guidance.
Speaker #3: Yes, in the first half, the opening number was impacted by the base as well as by the supply chain. But I do think it's just normal volatility.
Ivy He-Yi Liu: Yes, in H1, the opening number was impacted by the base as well as by the supply chain. I do think it is just normal volatility, and there is no change in our overall opening plan. Thank you.
Speaker #3: And there's no change in our overall opening plan. Thank you.
Speaker #2: 关于汉庭的第二问题，我也想很乐意和大家做些分享。首先，汉庭四点零版本得到了市场和加盟商的一致认可，新版本的门店的 RERPA 同比显著高于老版本酒店。汉庭快捷推出以后，再迎合管道内迅速超过了两百家，发展速度好于我们的预期，开业门店的经营表现非常优异。这两点都证明了华筑的能力在经济型酒店推动高质量发展的这样的一个预期将会得到非常好的执行。后续我们将持续对汉庭的老旧门店版本进行升级迭代，进一步优化梳理汉庭品牌的矩阵，同时呢，也为下层市场和小型物业的门店翻盘呢提供足够的产品方案。总之，在经济型这个领域，华筑将会充分的发展，充分的实现市场的占有。
Jin Hui: 关于汉庭的第二个问题，我也很乐意和大家做些分享。首先，汉庭4.0版本得到了市场和加盟商的一致认可。新版本的门店的RevPAR同比显著高于老版本酒店。汉庭快捷推出以后，在营和管道内迅速超过了200家，发展速度好于我们的预期。开业门店的经营表现非常优异。这两点都证明了华住的能力，在经济型酒店推动高质量发展的预期，将会得到非常好的执行。后续我们将持续对汉庭的老旧门店版本进行升级迭代，进一步优化梳理汉庭品牌的矩阵。同时，也为下沉市场和小型物业的门店翻盘提供足够的产品方案。总之，在经济型这个领域，华住将会充分地发展，充分地实现市场的占领。
Ivy He-Yi Liu: On your second question, I am very happy to share with you that our HanTing 4.0 version have achieved both market and franchisees recognition. The new version of HanTing, the RevPAR performance is meaningfully better than the older version. After we rolled out HanTing Inn, the number of hotels of HanTing Inn in operation and in pipeline actually quickly exceeded 200. The overall development is actually better than our expectation. The operational performance of those HanTing Inn that is in operation is also very strong. I think both the two points that I mentioned above actually shows you that H World Group has very strong capability in high quality development in the economy hotel segment, and we are very strong in executing.
Speaker #3: Very happy to share with you that our Han Ting 4.0 version has achieved both market and franchisee recognition. The new version of Han Ting, the RevPAR performance is meaningfully better than the older version.
Speaker #3: And after we rolled out Han Ting in, the number of Han Ting hotels in operation and in the pipeline actually quickly exceeded 200.
Speaker #3: The overall development is actually better than our expectation. The operational performance of those Han Ting that are in operation is also very strong. I think both of the two points that I mentioned above actually show you that Huazhu has very strong capability in high-quality development in the economy hotel segment.
Speaker #3: And we have we're very strong in executing. Going forward, we will continue to upgrade our Han Ting's older version of hotel. To go through the overall Han Ting hotel's portfolio, to improve the overall hotel portfolio quality, meanwhile we will also to with the Han Ting in product, we also provide the product that's available for those smaller properties for them to open under our Han Ting brand.
Ivy He-Yi Liu: Going forward, we will continue to upgrade our HanTing's older version of hotel to go through the overall HanTing hotels portfolio to improve the overall hotel portfolio quality. Meanwhile, with the HanTing Inn product, we also provide the product that is available for those smaller properties for them to open under our HanTing brand.

Speaker #3: Let me answer your questions related to the upper mid-scale segment. Yes, the upper mid-scale segment is one of H World's core strategic areas, and we continue to put effort into brand building as well as the overall development in this segment.
Ivy He-Yi Liu: Let me answer your questions related to the upper mid-scale segment. Yes, upper mid-scale segment is one of H World's core strategic area, and we continue to put effort into the brand building as well as the overall development in this segment. For the upper mid-scale market in China, we do see good development opportunities. We actually see opportunities from two front. One is that the upper mid-scale segment actually has the opportunity from consumption upgrade, while at the same time, it also takes some of the demand from those traditional upscale hotels. For H World, we will continue to insist on our multi-brand strategy. We will be building on our brand JI, on Crystal Orange Hotel, on IntercityHotel, as well as Mercure. We will be using these four core flagship brands to achieve fast development and market share gain in the upper mid-scale segment. Currently, for the IntercityHotel, it has been growing very strongly, and we are very confident on the future growth for this brand. You mentioned the brand Grand JI. For the brand Grand JI, we have been gradually signing and opening some hotels. As of now, the number of Grand JI in pipeline have already exceeded 20 hotels. At this moment, we will be really focusing on building Grand JI at those very prime locations.
Speaker #3: For the upper mid-scale market in China, we do see good development opportunities. We actually see opportunities from two fronts. One is that the upper mid-scale segment actually has the opportunity from consumption upgrade.
Speaker #3: Well, at the same time, it also takes some of the demand from those traditional upscale hotels. And for H World, we will continue to insist on our multi-brand strategy.
Speaker #3: We will be building on our brand G, Crystal, Intercity, as well as Mercure. We will be using these four core flagship brands to achieve fast development and market share gain in the upper mid-scale segment.
Speaker #3: Currently, for the Intercity Hotel, it has been growing very strongly, and we are very confident about the future growth for this brand. And, you mentioned Grand G. For the Grand G, we have been gradually signing and opening some hotels. As of now, the number of Grand G in the pipeline has already exceeded twenty hotels.
Speaker #3: At this moment, we'll be really focusing on building Grand G at those very prime locations. We are still refining the overall business model, so we'll be relatively cautious, just like developing the quantity of it.
Ivy He-Yi Liu: We are still refining the overall business model, so we will be relatively cautious on developing the quantity of it. But we are very positive on what Grand JI Hotel has already achieved in terms of the customer reputation, the brand reputation, and the product model. In the future, we believe Grand JI Hotel has very big growth potential and we are very optimistic on it.

Speaker #4: Also, could management comment on the strategy in terms of optimizing the membership system? Thank you very much.
Speaker #2: 好的，我来回答关于会员的话题。会员战略是华筑经营里面最核心的战略之一，也是华筑的核心竞争力。呃，华筑会目前整个会员增长和预定指数，我们认为还是较为正常和预期的。当然，面对新的休闲市场、入境市场、下沉市场这些新市场，华筑会员的确需要时间沉淀更多的面对这些新市场的客源。对应的，我们 OTA 的占比也比较稳定啊，目前维持在百分之二十到二十五之间。我们认为面对一些新的市场，我们还是需要 OTA 的支持，尤其在入境和更多的下沉市场。对此，华筑会未来的核心运营策略，我想总结为三个方面。第一个方面是关于华筑会员由以华筑会权益最优的核心为为核心的华筑的会员运营策略。我们尤其在价格最优、早餐等场景权益的这个治理上，我们接下去会持续的做很多的工作。同时还会做会员的创新，近期我们推出的家庭卡得到了市场的非常好的反馈，所以第一点是关于会员运营方面。第二条，啊，sorry，先翻一下，哈哈哈。
Jin Hui: 好的，我来回答关于会员的话题。会员战略是华住经营里面最核心的战略，也是华住的核心竞争力。华住会目前整个会员增长的预定指数，我们认为还是较为正常和预期的。当然，面对新的休闲市场、入境市场、下沉市场这些新市场，华住会员的确需要时间沉淀更多的面对这些新市场的客源。对应地，我们OTA的占比也比较稳定，目前维持在20%到25%之间。我们认为面对一些新的市场，我们还是需要OTA的支持，尤其在入境和更多的下沉市场。对此，华住会未来的核心运营策略，我想总结为三个方面：第一方面是关于华住会员，由以华住会权益最优为核心的华住的会员运营策略。我们尤其在价格最优、早餐等场景权益的治理上，我们接下去会持续地做很多的工作，同时还会做会员的创新。近期我们推出的家庭卡得到了市场的非常好的反馈。所以第一点是关于会员运营方面。第二条。Sorry，请翻译一下。
Speaker #3: Let me answer the question related to our members. Yes, membership is one of our core strategies for H World operations, and it's also one of our core competitive advantages.
Ivy He-Yi Liu: Let me answer the question related to our members. Yes, member is one of our core strategy for H World operation and it is also one of our core competitive advantages. Right now, the increase of the members as well as the member contribution in the booking is in line with our expectation. Of course, as we are entering into more markets, for example, leisure market, the inbound market, as well as those lower tier cities market, H World member should need some time to grab those traffic from those new markets for us. Meanwhile, the OTA contribution is actually quite stable at around 20% to 25%. We do believe that when we enter those new markets, we do need OTA support, especially for inbound and lower tier cities. Related to the overall strategy and the future strategic operations for H Rewards member, I will conclude it in three areas.
Speaker #3: Right now, the overall member growth, the increase in the number of members, as well as member contribution in bookings, is in line with our expectations.
Speaker #3: Of course, as we are entering into more markets, for example, the leisure market, the inbound market, as well as those lower-tier cities markets, H World membership does need some time to grab traffic from those new markets for us.
Speaker #3: But, meanwhile, the OTA contribution is actually quite stable at around 20 to 25 percent. We do believe that when we enter those new markets, we do need OTA support, especially for inbound and lower-tier cities.
Speaker #3: and related to the overall strategy, and the future, strategic operations for, H reward members, I will, conclude it in three areas. Firstly is for the H reward members, we do emphasize on the, the, the key best benefit for our members.
Ivy He-Yi Liu: Firstly, for the H Rewards members, we do emphasize on the best benefit for our members. This one is one of the key strategies for us. This includes the best price, includes breakfast, and etc. Going forward, we are also doing more work on innovation. For example, recently we actually launched a family card under our H Rewards membership and it actually received quite good feedback from the market.
Speaker #3: This is one of the key strategies for us. This includes the best price, includes breakfast, and et cetera. And going forward, we are also doing more work on innovation. For example, recently we actually launched a family card under our H Reward membership.
Speaker #3: And it actually received quite good feedback from the market.
Speaker #2: 我想第二条呢，就是展开全面的生态的跨界合作。大家有关注到我们去年和滴滴今年和各个航空公司，包括和新能源汽车的方面方方面的生活方式的打通。在生态跨界方面也将会成为华筑会非常重要的一个运营策略。最后一条，呃，我们在二季度展开和雅高全面的会员合作，来布局入境和海外会员的发展。呃，一方面承接更多入境需求，也要也让更多的中国旅客能这个在海外旅游，能住上华筑和雅高的酒店，为他们。所以总结三点，呃，华筑会是首先聚焦在会员运营方面，其次是在整个生态跨界合作，最后是在整个华筑会的国际化发展。我们正在全面的努力。
Jin Hui: 我想第二条呢，就是展开全面的生态的跨界合作。大家有关注到我们去年和滴滴，今年和各个航空公司，包括和新能源汽车方方面面的生活方式的打通，在生态跨界方面也将会成为华住会非常重要的一个运营策略。
Arthur Yu: 最后一条，我们在二季度展开和雅高全面的会员合作，来布局入境和海外会员的发展。一方面承接更多入境需求，也让更多的中国旅客在海外旅游能住上华住和雅高的酒店。所以总结三点，华住首先聚焦在会员运营方面；其次是在整个生态跨界合作；最后是在整个华住会的国际化发展，我们正在全面地运营。
Speaker #3: So secondly is the cross-industry partnership. You may have already noticed that last year we actually partnered with Didi, and this year we've partnered with multiple airline companies.
Ivy He-Yi Liu: Secondly is on the cross-industry partnership. You may have already noted that last year we actually partnered with DiDi, and this year we are partnering with multiple airline companies as well as new energy vehicle companies to really work with those multiple business sectors. The cross-industry partnership will also be one of our important strategies. Lastly is our international or overseas member development. In Q2, we deepened our cooperation with Accor on the membership partnership. On one hand, it is really to capture more inbound demand, and it also allows Chinese consumers or Chinese travelers to be able to stay in Accor's hotel when they go abroad. So we are really working on that. To conclude on the three points, one is on the membership operation; secondly is on the cross-industry partnership; and thirdly is on the international development for H World. Thank you.
Speaker #3: as well as new energy vehicle companies to really work with those multiple business sectors. This will, the cross-industry partnership will also be one of our important strategies.
Speaker #3: Lastly is our international or overseas member development. In the second quarter, we deepened our cooperation with Accor on the membership partnership. On the one hand, it's really to take more, to capture more inbound demand.
Speaker #3: And also, it's allowed Chinese consumers, or Chinese travelers, to be able to stay in Accor's hotels when they go abroad.
Speaker #3: So we're really working on that. So, to conclude on the three points: one is on the membership operation; secondly, it's on the cross-industry partnership; and thirdly, it's on the international development for H World.

Speaker #4: Euh, si c'est euh 听众跟语种的分享啊。我有啊一个小小的问题想问的是啊，看到过去几个季度你的你们的 EBITDA margin 啊上涨的挺不错的，每一个季度都涨大概三到四个点左右。啊，想追问一下下半年以及全年你们有有没有什么指引，反过来说的话呢，啊国外啊尤其是 DH 这块可好像。 季度这个 EBITDA margin 好好像有一点点的跌幅，所以还是追问想说看全年的话啊在国外你你们的看法又是怎么样的。谢谢。 So my question's in relation to the EBITDA margin trend over the last couple quarters they have seen a nice three four percent margin expansion in China but yet in overseas market the margins they see some sluggish or or slippage.
Simon Cheung: 谢谢金总跟于总的分享。我有一个小小的问题想问，看到过去几个季度你们的EBITDA margin上涨得挺不错的，每一个季度都涨大概三到四个点左右。想追问一下下半年以及全年你们有没有什么指引？反过来说的话，国外尤其是DH，好像这个季度EBITDA margin好像有一点点的跌幅，所以还是追问，想说看全年的话，在国外你们的看法又是怎么样的？谢谢。My question is in relation to the EBITDA margin trend.
Simon Cheung: Over the last couple quarters, they have seen a nice 3% to 4% margin expansion in China, but in overseas markets, the margins, they see some sluggish or slippage. Wondering whether management do have any guidance going in the H2 and also for the full year. Thank you. Appreciate it.
Speaker #4: I was wondering whether management has any guidance going into the second half and also for the full year. Thank you, I appreciate it.
Speaker #2: Simon 感谢你的问题。我是 Arthur。我来回答这个问题。呃，首先呢第一点呢我们公司是随着轻资产战略的这样一个推进，所以中长期来讲我们还是预期公司的整体的 EBITDA 的率会继续的稳定的提升。这个是第一点。
Arthur Yu: Simon，感谢你的问题。我是Arthur，我来回答这个问题。首先第一点，我们公司是随着轻资产战略的这样一个推进，所以中长期来讲，我们还是预期公司的整体的EBITDA率会继续地、稳定地提升，这个是第一点。
Speaker #3: Thank you, Simon. This is Arthur. I will answer your questions. So, on the overall margin front, as the group continues to push forward our asset-light strategy, in the mid to long term we do expect the company's adjusted EBITDA margin to continue to expand.
Ivy He-Yi Liu: Thank you, Simon. This is Arthur. I will answer your question. On the overall margin front, as the group continue to push forward our asset light strategy, in the mid to long term, we do expect company's adjusted EBITDA margin to continue to expand.
Speaker #2: 嗯，另外一方面呢我们在我们的 SG&A 的成本的管控上面啊做的也是比较好的，得益于公司有一套比较完整成熟的成本管控体系。
Arthur Yu: 另外一方面，我们在SG&A的成本管控上面做得也是比较好的，得益于公司有一套比较完整成熟的成本管控体系。
Speaker #3: On the SG&A front, we have been making really good delivery in the quarter. This is supported by our very mature and developed cost control system.
Ivy He-Yi Liu: On the SG&A front, we have been making really good delivery in the quarter. This is supported by our very mature and development cost control system.
Speaker #2: 嗯，那公司也非常清楚的认识到啊未来长期可持续的发展，华筑还是需要在啊做必要的战略的投入，例如说在人才的培养、科技 AI 的建设，华筑会的建设啊、品牌的建设等等这些方面我们会做一些长期合理有效的投入。
Arthur Yu: 那公司也非常清楚地认识到，未来长期可持续的发展，华住还是需要在必要的战略的投入，例如说在人才的培养、科技AI的建设、华住会的建设、品牌的建设等等这些方面，我们会做一些长期合理有效的投入。
Speaker #3: But at the same time, we're also very clear that in order for H Reward to achieve long-term, sustainable growth, we have to make necessary strategic investments.
Ivy He-Yi Liu: At the same time, we are also very clear that in order for H World to achieve a long term sustainable growth, we have to make necessary strategic investments. For example, in the talent development, in technology and AI, in our HR work, membership building, in brand building, etc. In those areas, we will be making reasonable and long term and effective investments.
Speaker #3: For example, in the in the talent development, in technology and AI, in our H reward membership building, in brand building, et cetera. So in those kind of those areas we'll be making reasonable and long-term, and effective investment.
Speaker #2: 嗯，所以下半年我们对利润和成本的展望还是会基本上保持稳定。
Arthur Yu: 所以下半年我们对利润和成本的展望还是会基本上保持稳定。
Speaker #3: So for the outlook for our second half, profitability and cost will remain very stable.
Ivy He-Yi Liu: For the outlook of our H2 profitability and cost, we will maintain very stable.
Speaker #2: 好的。第二个问题关于我们啊海外业务的这样的啊一个情况，嗯，由于我们的海外业务其实受到了一定的中东战争的这样的一个影响，我们在中东和埃及有 20 多家的这样的一个加盟店，那它对华筑国际的收入和利润的贡献其实是非常有限的。
Arthur Yu: 第二个问题关于我们海外业务的这样的一个情况，由于我们的海外业务其实受到了一定的中东战争的这样的一个影响，我们在中东和埃及有20多家的这样的一个加盟店，那它对华住国际的收入和利润的贡献其实是非常有限的。
Speaker #3: On our international business—yes, our international business was, in some way, impacted by the Middle East conflict. For our HWI, in the Middle East and in Egypt, we have more than 20 hotels, but they are all monetized and franchise hotels.
Ivy He-Yi Liu: On our international business, our international business was in some way impacted by the Middle East conflict. For our H World International in the Middle East and in Egypt, we have more than 20 hotels, but they are all managed as a franchise hotel. They have limited impact actually on our H World International's revenue and the profit.
Speaker #3: So they actually have limited impact on our HWI's revenue and profit.
Speaker #2: 嗯，虽然中东的这个战争对我们的客流和成本均是有一定的影响，但是通过整个的我们的成本控制，呃，这个影响还是可以维持在可控的范围之内的。
Arthur Yu: 虽然中东的战争对我们的客流和成本均是有一定的影响，但是通过我们的成本控制，这个影响还是可以维持在可控的范围之内的。
Speaker #3: Despite the impact of the Middle East conflict on traffic and overall operational costs, for H Reward, we are actually doing more cost control for HWI. By doing that, the overall impact of the Middle East is actually controllable.
Ivy He-Yi Liu: Despite the impact of Middle East conflict on the traffic and on the overall operational cost, for H World, we are actually doing more cost control for H World International. By doing that, the overall impact of the Middle East is actually controllable.
Speaker #2: 从全年的角度来看，我们维持华筑国际全年利润率为正这个目标是不变的。
Arthur Yu: 从全年的角度来看，我们维持华住国际全年利润率为正，这个目标是不变的。
Speaker #3: So, for the full year, we maintain our goal of achieving positive profit for our HWI business. Thank you.
Ivy He-Yi Liu: For the full year, we maintain our goal of achieving a positive profit for our H World International business.
Arthur Yu: 谢谢。
