Worries about its financial stability have impacted its stock market value

WeWork's stocks experienced a more than 36% drop on the Nasdaq market after the office and coworking space rental company reported losses in the second quarter of the year and expressed doubts about its viability as a functioning business.

 

The share price of WeWork, which has been steadily declining since its debut in October 2021, fell to a low of $0.13, compared to the peak of $14.97 it reached.

 

These losses occurred after the multinational company reported a loss of $349 million in the second quarter, a 39.5% decrease from the same period the previous year, but also warned of "substantial doubt" about its ability to continue operating.

 

In an effort to improve liquidity and profitability in the coming year, WeWork plans to cut rental costs, increase revenue, control expenses, and explore additional financing options. In the second quarter of 2023, the company recorded revenues of $844 million, a 3.5% year-over-year increase, while expenses rose by 5.6%.

 

Although losses in the first half of 2023 decreased compared to the same period in 2022, concerns about its financial stability have impacted its value in the stock market.
