“We have seen growth momentum picking up sequentially in the first quarter as more markets have started to produce returns following our investments last and early this year. Our guidance for the second quarter reflects our continued confidence in our growth trajectory.” said Mr. Jack Jiajia Huang, Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of 51Talk.
“In fact, as we continue to deepen our understanding of the international markets, we are growing increasingly confident that our products can meet the needs of students and parents in many geographies. We apply a multi-step approach to fully unlock the potential of each market and have seen encouraging signs that some early-stage markets have been developing at a faster pace than the existing markets when they were at a similar stage.
During this quarter, we continued to intensify our localization efforts, especially in products, sales, marketing, and support functions. Specifically, we have plans for more online and offline branding activities throughout 2023. We have been able to achieve this progress while maintaining positive operating cash flow during this quarter.” Mr. Huang concluded.
