What TravelSky Technology does

China's dominant provider of airline reservation, distribution and IT systems, used by nearly all mainland Chinese airlines.

Is paid a fee for each booking processed and each passenger checked in through its systems, so air-travel volume drives revenue more than pricing; fees for core services have been set under regulatory guidance. It is controlled by a state-owned parent.

In one line: China's Sabre/Amadeus.

Over six months to 6 Nov 2026 the shares returned -4.8% against +5.8% for the median peer; over one year -9.1%.

How these numbers are made. Returns are close-to-close in local currency. Revenue growth and margins are trailing twelve months. Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal). No fair values, price targets or analyst ratings are shown, by design. Method and validation.
