Second-quarter revenue rose 16% to 14.8 billion yuan (approximately $2.1 billion), beating market expectations, while net profit rose 27%. The company attributed the strong results to resilient travel demand, particularly during holiday periods.

Meanwhile, the company announced a new share repurchase program of up to $5 billion for its ordinary shares and ADRs.

Buybacks typically signal the management's confidence in the company's business and are a positive for the stock.

Shanghai, China-headquartered Trip.com offers hotel, flight, and package bookings, with the majority of its business coming from the Chinese and Asian markets. The company is expanding its presence in the North American market through its flight search product, Skyscanner.

As of last close, Trip.com's U.S.-listed shares, TCOM, are down 4.8% year-to-date.
