Fosun Tourism (1992 HK)'s profit warning suggested a significant deterioration in profitability in 2H24, fading any near-term recovery hope. 
With losses enlarged 89-126% YoY in 2H24, it is more difficult to return to its peak and IPO share prices. This makes the buyback proposal even more attractive.
We take the inability to introduce the Potential Share Alternative Option as a lack of confidence by the existing shareholders in Fosun Tourism's medium-term outlook.
