The business said on Tuesday that it had made its first quarterly profit as a result of significant cost reductions that it had implemented in order to compensate for a post-pandemic slump in demand.

As part of its plan to turn the company around, it eliminated operations in a number of countries, laid off employees, and reduced its spending on marketing.

“We departed or scaled operations in non-core markets,” stated Chief Executive Officer Forrest Li. “We also streamlined our pipeline with investments and project closures, and we deprioritized non-core activities.”

During the latter half of the previous year, “our deliberate transition to focus on efficiency and profitability has been already bringing considerable benefits to the bottom line.”
