Since taking office in May 2020, the current management of the company has worked hand in hand with all staff to strive for governance. On the one hand, we should face up to the historical responsibility and constantly improve the corporate governance; on the other hand, we should adhere to product and technological innovation and give back to the broad masses of consumers.

In the latest news released by Lucky, by the end of June 2021, Luckin Coffee's cumulative trading users had exceeded 75 million.

Business situation of Luckin Coffee stores

After Luckin Coffee reissued the audited annual financial report in 2019, it means that Luckin Coffee is on the right track.

But looking back on the whole fraud scandal, since Luckin Coffee was exposed to the financial scandal, Luckin Coffee's entire management has also undergone earth-shaking changes.

Luckin Coffee CEO Qian Zhiya and COO Liu Jian were forced to resign from the board of directors because of a financial scandal on May 12, 2020.

Guo Jinyi, assistant to Luckin Coffee Lu Zhengyao, was appointed as the new CEO and chairman on July 14, 2020.

Luckin Coffee announced the appointment of Marcum Bernstein&Pinchuk LLP, an independent accounting firm, as the independent auditor.

In April, Luckin Coffee received a new round of financing agreements of $250 million from two major shareholders, Dawei Capital and pleasure Capital.

After obtaining the settlement of regulators and the support of capital injection again, coupled with the end of the reissue of financial reports in 2019, Luckin Coffee officially said: next, in accordance with the disclosure requirements of the US Securities Regulatory Commission, the company will continue to actively fulfill its disclosure obligations. release the 2020 annual financial report as soon as possible, and gradually return to the normal progress of financial disclosure.

At this point, in fact, combined with the performance of Luckin Coffee in 2020 and the first half of 2021, we can find that Luckin Coffee is gradually back on the right track, but whether the road after Luckin Coffee is clear is still a question mark.
