Alan Peng, CEO of Meten EdtechX stated,

Their team’s ability to continuously execute their approach is reflected in their outstanding second-quarter performance. They’re still focused on satisfying market demands and handling COVID-19’s continued impact on their business. They’ve made several business changes and improvements in order to meet their long-term operating goals. All offline courses have been converted to online courses and beginning in September, all offline students will be able to enroll in online synchronized courses. They want to slowly decline their offline learning centers to 1-2 in each location, transforming them into learning and communication platforms for students, lowering fixed costs, and increasing profit margins.
