Through its subsidiaries, the company provides a suite of corporate learning solutions that combine technology platforms with instructional content and delivery services. Core offerings include a corporate learning platform, personalized e-learning systems, teaching/learning tools, and access to online courses, along with offline course offerings and courseware recording services. In addition to content and learning workflow tools, the business also engages in technology development and the provision of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) and learning content.
From a product perspective, YXT’s model centers on enabling organizations to plan, deliver, and manage learning programs digitally. The personalized e-learning system and learning tools suggest an integrated user and content experience aimed at improving adoption and effectiveness of corporate training. Its inclusion of both online and offline learning—plus courseware recording—indicates an approach that can support different training formats, from directly delivered modules to professionally produced course assets.
In terms of cost structure and operations, the company’s operating environment typically involves ongoing software development (platform engineering, content and tool integration), cloud/hosting costs, customer implementation/support, and content production/operations. While specific line-item costs are not provided in the supplied text, the available financial snapshot indicates negative profitability metrics (e.g., negative net profit/EBIT/operating margins in the trailing-twelve-month snapshot), which often corresponds to continued investment phases or a heavier expense base relative to revenue at a given period.
Financially, the provided snapshot includes a negative free cash flow to equity and to firm in the trailing-twelve-month view, alongside liquidity and working-capital measures that suggest short-term financial pressures (e.g., a low current ratio and negative working capital in the snapshot). These metrics imply that the market may be valuing the company based on growth potential and SaaS-like scalability, while near-term cash generation and profitability may still be under development.
Key people leadership for the company is associated with Xiao Yan Lu as CEO, and the company is described as having been founded in 2011 and headquartered in Suzhou, China. Recent corporate history in the supplied materials notes a holding company name change in 2021, consistent with ongoing organizational and capital-market activities.
Looking forward, the company’s “wishes” or priorities—implied by its mission and business model—likely include expanding enterprise adoption of its corporate learning platform, increasing content and feature depth for personalization and engagement, and improving unit economics (better operating leverage and cash generation) as SaaS scale increases.

Free Cash FlowThe holy grail of corporate cash.

Operator: Good day, and thank you for standing by. Welcome to the YXT.COM's First 6 Months of 2026 Earnings Conference Call. [Operator Instructions] Please be advised that today's conference is being recorded. I would now like to hand the conference over to your speaker today, Peter Lu, Founder and Chairman of YXT.COM. Sir, please go ahead.
Xiaoyan Lu: Hello, everyone. This is Peter Lu, Founder and Chairman of YXT.COM. Thank you for joining our 2026 First Half Earnings Conference Call. In the first half of 2026, we saw an important shift in enterprise AI adoption. Customers didn't ask whether a product has AI capabilities. They ask whether AI can improve their business outcomes, shorten capability building cycles, accumulate organizational knowledge more thoroughly and support actual execution. Having AI in the product suite was no longer an option for us. Not only that, having meaningful AI with productivity level value became the key differentiator. This was exactly the same direction YXT.COM took going into 2026. We achieved a nearly ninefold growth in AI product-related revenue. Our monthly recurring revenue from AI-related products reached RMB 4.4 million as of June 30, 2026, compared with RMB 500,000 a year earlier. The driving force behind the ninefold growth of AI products is adding AI to our existing business and innovating AI-native new businesses. In terms of existing business, we integrated AI into our existing corporate learning business and improved our competitiveness in both acquiring new clients and expanding the existing engagements. In the first half of 2026, the number of newly signed customers increased by nearly 50% compared with the same period last year. Our net dollar retention rate also improved by about 2.3 percentage points. And in terms of new business, SaleSmart, our AI-powered sales intelligence and enablement solution, achieved sales of over RMB 5 million during the same period. This marked the first successful step in expanding from corporate learning business to productivity enablement business in the same sales domain. Through the first half of 2026, we proved our strategy of intelligent productivity to be effective, and we are even more confident about it now. We will strive to assist enterprises to turn knowledge into capabilities, experiences into assets and individual capacity into organizational intelligent productivity. As more and more companies embrace AI, as AI goes from a chatbot to productivity levers, we will see an even bigger addressable market with more and more definite needs. One last piece of information I'd like to share with you before turning over is the transformation of our own operation. During the first half of 2026, we adopted AI more systematically and transformed how we build products, how we deliver customer value and how we market ourselves. The benefits of such AI adoption and transformation can be indicated by our gross margin, our operational efficiency and our cash flow. And …
