Nanjing, China — Tuniu Corporation (NASDAQ:TOUR) announced its fourth-quarter results on Thursday, showing a return to profitability with net revenue of CNY 123.5 million ($17.7 million), up 20.3% year-over-year from CNY 102.7 million last year.

Following the announcement, the company’s stock rose 4.6% in pre-market trading.

This online leisure travel company reported an adjusted net profit of CNY 3.5 million ($0.5 million) for the quarter, while its adjusted net loss for Q4 2024 was CNY 6.4 million.

Package tour revenue surged 35.3% year-over-year to CNY 102.1 million ($14.6 million), mainly driven by growth in group tours and self-guided tours. Other revenue declined 21.4% year-over-year to CNY 21.5 million ($3.1 million), primarily due to decreased merchandise sales.

Founder, Chairman, and CEO Yu Dunde said, “We achieved year-over-year profitability in Q4 and once again posted full-year profit, marking our third consecutive year of non-GAAP annual profitability. In 2025, we adopted proactive product strategies and opened new sales channels to sustain business growth.”

Operating expenses decreased 16.4% year-over-year to CNY 69 million ($9.9 million), with general and administrative expenses down 52.2%, mainly due to impairment charges recorded in the same period last year.

The company recorded operating revenue of CNY 1 million ($0.2 million), while its operating loss for Q4 2024 was CNY 12.7 million.

For the first quarter of 2026, Tuniu expects net revenue between CNY 125.7 million and CNY 131.6 million, representing a year-over-year growth of 7% to 12%. The midpoint of CNY 128.7 million indicates a 9.5% increase compared to Q1 2025.
