17 Education is a leading online tuition provider in China. The company was founded by former regional head of New Oriental Education and is looking to raise up to USD 300m via a listing in the US.17 Education has a unique business model whereby it provides a free in-school solution to teachers, students and parents and upsells after-school paid tuition. On one hand it has a large pool of verified students to upsell its paid after-school tuition. On the other hand its conversion and market share is low, relative to its addressable market.While a majority of the paid-enrollment came from the in-school pools of students, it still needs to spend the majority of its gross profit as the promotional course expenses. We think it is so far a hard business. Our preliminary assessment suggests that it could take the company until the end of 2022 to reach breakeven.The company had negative newsflow of administrative warning for its collection of personal data as well as unauthorized in-app purchases for homework related online games.
