  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 1
    If we fail to continue to satisfy applicable Nasdaq listing standards, our Ordinary Shares may be delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market, which would seriously harm the liquidity of our Ordinary Shares and may have an adverse impact on the price of our Ordinary Shares.

    We are a "foreign private issuer" with our Ordinary Shares listed on Nasdaq, and are subject to the Nasdaq continued listing requirements, including meeting the minimum closing bid price of $1.00 (the "Minimum Bid Price Requirement") under Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5550(a)(2), maintaining a minimum of $2.5 million in stockholders' equity as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), meeting the alternative of market value of listed securities of $35 million under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2) or net income from continuing operations of $500,000 in the most recently completed fiscal year or in two of the last three most recently completed fiscal years under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(3), and compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) to timely file Exchange Act reports, collectively, the "Nasdaq Rules". On June 25, 2026, we received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department (the "Staff") of Nasdaq notifying us that, for the period from May 12, 2026 to June 24, 2026, our ordinary shares had not maintained Minimum Bid Price Requirement pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). The Nasdaq letter does not result in the immediate delisting of our ordinary shares from The Nasdaq Capital Market. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) (the "Compliance Period Rule"), we have been provided an initial period of 180 calendar days, or until December 22, 2026 (the "Compliance Date"), to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. If, at any time during this 180-day period, the closing bid price for our ordinary shares closes at $1.00 or more per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, as required under the Compliance Period Rule, the Staff will provide written notification to us that we comply with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement and the ordinary shares will continue to be eligible for listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. If we do not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by the Compliance Date, we may be eligible for an additional 180 calendar day compliance period. To qualify, we would have to meet the continued listing requirement for the market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, except for the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, and we would need to provide written notice to Nasdaq of its intention to cure the deficiency during the additional compliance period, by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, or secure a second period of 180 days to regain compliance. In the event we fail to meet the listing requirements under the Nasdaq Rules, Ordinary Shares may be delisted from Nasdaq, which could adversely impact the liquidity of Ordinary Shares, the price for Ordinary Shares and may consequently affect the trading and price of Equity Shares. While there are no restrictions under Indian laws on Yatra India from deconsolidating from the Yatra Online, Yatra India must remain our consolidated subsidiary pursuant to applicable continued listing requirements of Nasdaq, and any deviation from such listing requirements could affect our ability to raise additional financing through the public or private sale of equity securities. Following the initial public offering of the Equity Shares in India, we currently hold approximately 62.66% of the issued and outstanding Equity Shares. Our ability to sell Equity Shares is limited to approximately an additional 12.65% of the issued and outstanding Equity Shares such that Yatra India continues to remain our consolidated subsidiary. Accordingly, our ability to generate proceeds from the sale of Equity Shares is limited. In addition, Yatra India's charter and those of Travel Holding Cyprus Limited ("THCL") and Asia Consolidated DMC Pte. Ltd. ("ACDPL"), our direct subsidiaries and Yatra India's promoter entities, limit Yatra India's ability to raise additional capital and/or undertake a change of control transaction, directly or indirectly, without the ultimate approval of our Board and shareholders if the result of such additional capital raise or change of control transaction would result in the deconsolidation of Yatra India from our Company. In the event Yatra India ceases to be our subsidiary and is deconsolidated, the Ordinary Shares could be delisted from Nasdaq, we could fail to list our Ordinary Shares on another reputable national securities exchange, and it may result in a reduction in some or all of the following actions, which could also have an adverse impact on Equity Shares: - the liquidity and marketability of Ordinary Shares;- the market price of Ordinary Shares;- our ability to obtain financing for the continuation of operations;- the number of institutional and retail investors that will consider investing in Ordinary Shares;- the availability of information concerning the trading prices and volume of Ordinary Shares; and - the number of broker-dealers willing to execute trades in Ordinary Shares. Non-compliance with Nasdaq's continued listing requirements and consequent delisting of Ordinary Shares from Nasdaq could adversely affect our ability to raise additional financing through the public or private sale of equity securities, would significantly affect the ability of investors to trade Ordinary Shares and would negatively affect the value and liquidity of Ordinary Shares. In the event of a delisting, holders of Ordinary Shares could face significant consequences, including, a determination that our securities are a "penny stock," which will require brokers trading in those securities to adhere to more stringent rules and possibly result in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for those securities, and limited amount of news and analyst coverage for us in the United States. Delisting could also have other negative results, including the potential loss of confidence by employees, the loss of institutional investor interest and fewer business development opportunities. Further, if our Ordinary Shares are delisted, we would incur additional costs under requirements of state "blue sky" laws in connection with any sales of our securities. This could severely limit the market liquidity of our Ordinary Shares and the ability of our shareholders to sell Ordinary Shares in the secondary market, and it may have an adverse impact on our business, operations, liquidity and cashflows on consolidated basis.

  • Accounting & Financial Operations - Risk 2
    Significant differences exist between Ind AS and other accounting principles, such as Indian GAAP, U.S. GAAP and IFRS, which investors may be more familiar with and may consider material to their assessment of our financial condition.

    Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. Yatra India's financial statements are prepared in accordance with Ind AS or Ind AS 34, as applicable and restated in accordance with requirements of Section 26 of Part I of Chapter III of the Companies Act, SEBI ICDR, Regulations and the Guidance Note on "Reports in Company Prospectuses (Revised 2019)" issued by ICAI. IFRS differs in certain significant respects from Indian GAAP, Ind AS, U.S. GAAP and other accounting principles with which prospective investors may be familiar in other countries. If our financial statements were to be prepared in accordance with such other accounting principles, our results of operations, cash flows and financial position may be substantially different, primarily on account of timing differences due to different statutory timelines for closure of the financial statements and difference in accounting principles. We have not attempted to explain those differences or quantify their impact on the financial data included in this Annual Report and prospective investors should review the accounting policies applied in the preparation of our financial statements and consult their own professional advisers for an understanding of the differences between these accounting principles and those with which they may be more familiar. Any reliance by person not familiar with Ind AS accounting practices on the financial disclosures presented in this Annual Report should be limited accordingly.

On June 25, 2026, we received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department (the "Staff") of Nasdaq notifying us that, for the period from May 12, 2026 to June 24, 2026, our ordinary shares had not maintained Minimum Bid Price Requirement pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). The Nasdaq letter does not result in the immediate delisting of our ordinary shares from The Nasdaq Capital Market.

If, at any time during this 180-day period, the closing bid price for our ordinary shares closes at $1.00 or more per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, as required under the Compliance Period Rule, the Staff will provide written notification to us that we comply with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement and the ordinary shares will continue to be eligible for listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. If we do not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by the Compliance Date, we may be eligible for an additional 180 calendar day compliance period.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 2
    Yatra India may issue equity or convertible securities to third parties, which would indirectly reduce our ownership percentage in Yatra India and would have a dilutive effect on the amount of distributions made to us by Yatra India.

    We, through THCL and ACDPL, our subsidiaries, currently own 62.66% of the issued, subscribed, and paid-up equity share capital of Yatra India and any future issuance of Equity Shares on the Indian stock exchanges, may result in dilution of stake of THCL and ACDPL therein, which will indirectly, result in dilution of our stake in Yatra India and would have a dilutive effect on the amount of distributions that may be made to us. Dilution of stake pursuant to issuance of further securities, may result in an adverse impact on the price of our Ordinary Shares and may also have a material impact on ability of Yatra India to secure a loan or otherwise raise additional capital for working capital, acquisitions, debt service requirements, the execution of our business strategy and other general corporate purposes. On February 17, 2026, THCL, had sold approximately 1.8% of Yatra India's outstanding share capital (2,833,000 Equity Shares) in the open market resulting in dilution of our shareholding from 64.46% to 62.66% of the issued, subscribed, and paid-up equity share capital of Yatra India. Because holders of Yatra Online, Inc.'s Ordinary Shares and other equity securities do not directly own Equity Shares of Yatra India, such investors will not have any voting rights directly with respect to any such issuances or other activities of Yatra India.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 3
    The interests of our shareholders will be structurally subordinated to all liabilities and obligations of Yatra India and its subsidiaries, including Yatra India's public shareholders.

    Because we are a holding company, claims by shareholder will be structurally subordinated to all existing and future liabilities and obligations (whether or not for borrowed money) of our operating entity, Yatra India, and its subsidiaries and public stockholders. Therefore, in the event of our bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization, our assets and those of our operating entity, Yatra India and its subsidiaries will be available to satisfy the claims of our shareholders only after all of our and Yatra India's and its subsidiaries' liabilities and obligations have been paid in full, which will include Yatra India's public shareholders.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 4
    We may not be able to remove directors of Yatra India that may be appointed by the National Company Law Tribunal in India or directors appointed by the minority shareholders under the proportional representation mechanism pursuant to the provisions of the Companies Act.

    In India, the Companies Act provides that certain important decisions must be approved by the shareholders of the Company. Some of the decisions that are required to be approved by the shareholders include: - sale or transfer of substantial amount of assets; vary the rights of shareholders. - borrow or invest beyond certain thresholds;- declare dividends;- approve any scheme of arrangement or compromise with creditors;- reduce the share capital of the Company; and - vary the rights of shareholders The shareholders of a company have the power to appoint and remove directors, subject to compliance with the provisions of the Companies Act. If the articles of association of a company provide for the same, the board can also appoint any person as an additional director, alternate director, or nominee director. An additional director holds office up to the date of the next annual general meeting or the last date on which the annual general meeting should have been held, whichever is earlier, and their re-appointment is considered by the shareholders in the general meeting. The shareholders have the power to remove a director by a simple majority vote, after giving the concerned director an opportunity of being heard. However, shareholders cannot remove a director appointed by the National Company Law Tribunal or the directors appointed by the minority shareholders under the proportional representation mechanism as per the provisions of the Companies Act. Therefore, in case the directors' acts were done in bad faith, or their actions are not in our interest or in the interest of Yatra India, it may be difficult to remove them, which may affect our business, results of operations and financial conditions.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 5
    Our investors may be subject to Indian taxes on income arising through the sale of our Ordinary Shares.

    Amendments introduced in 2012 to the IT Act provide that income arising directly or indirectly through the sale of a capital asset, including any shares or interest in a company incorporated outside of India, will be subject to tax in India, if such shares or interest directly or indirectly derive their value substantially from assets located in India, irrespective of whether the seller of such shares has a residence, place of business, business connection, or any other presence in India. Through amendments introduced in 2015 to the IT Act, the word "substantially" has been defined and investors may be subject to Indian income taxes on the income arising directly or indirectly through the sale of our Ordinary Shares subject to the provisions of double taxation avoidance agreements that India has entered into with other countries. Further, the amendments also contain an exemption with respect to alienation of shares by a transferor-investor whose voting rights or share capital, at any time during a twelve-month period preceding the date of sale, does not exceed 5% of the total voting rights or share capital in the company, provided such transferor-investor is not vested with rights of management or control in any other form.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 6
    A third party could be prevented from acquiring control of Yatra India because of anti-takeover provisions under Indian law which could affect the price of our Ordinary Shares.

    There are provisions in Indian law that may delay, deter, or prevent a future takeover or change in control of Yatra India, even if a change in control would result in the purchase of the Equity Shares at a premium to the market price or would otherwise be beneficial to its shareholders. Such provisions may discourage or prevent certain types of transactions involving actual or threatened change in control of Yatra India. Under the SEBI (Substantial Acquisition of Shares and Takeovers) Regulations, 2011 ("SEBI Takeover Regulations"), an acquirer has been defined as any person who, directly or indirectly, acquires or agrees to acquire shares or voting rights or control over a company, whether individually or acting in concert with others. Although these provisions have been formulated to ensure that interests of investors/shareholders are protected, these provisions may also discourage a third party from attempting to take control of Yatra India. Consequently, even if a potential take over of Yatra India would result in the purchase of the Equity Shares at a premium to their market price or would otherwise be beneficial to its stakeholders, it is possible that such a takeover would not be attempted or consummated because of the SEBI Takeover Regulations. Further, certain transactions, including, without limitation, the sale of Equity Shares above certain thresholds or the sale of Equity Shares by shareholders holding specified number of shares or voting rights could be subject to the SEBI Takeover Regulations. Such transactions could require a potential acquirer to undertake an open offer process pursuant to the SEBI Takeover Regulations. Compliances specified under SEBI Takeover Regulations includes, requirements that we make an open offer, make an offer for delisting of the Equity Shares as applicable, disclose changes in shareholding or voting rights held by an acquirer in the company, may act as restrictions on our ability to dilute our stake in Yatra India or on Yatra India's ability to enter into and timely consummate such transactions on favorable terms, which may adversely affect the market price and trading volume of the Equity Shares upon listing and may deter or prevent transactions, including dilution of stake by us which otherwise would be beneficial or in the interest of Yatra India or its shareholders. Further, in the event the offer to delist is made by an acquirer in terms of SEBI Takeover Regulations and/or SEBI (Delisting of Equity Shares) Regulations 2021, holders of the Equity Shares immediately before the completion of the open offer process made by an acquirer under SEBI Takeover Regulations could refuse to tender their Equity Shares, and accordingly, may continue to be minority shareholders following the completion of the open offer process. Further, such minority shareholders who refuse to tender their Equity Shares in an open offer could deter an acquirer from acquiring all of the outstanding Equity Shares, which could result in loss of opportunity beneficial to Yatra India, and or its shareholders. Further, in India, takeovers meeting certain thresholds are under the surveillance of the Competition Commission of India, or CCI, and are regulated by the CCI to determine if a proposed takeover would have an appreciable adverse effect on competition in the relevant market.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 7
    The Equity Shares of Yatra India are publicly traded and may experience price and volume fluctuations, an active trading market for the Equity Shares may not be sustained and the price of the Equity Shares may be volatile.

    The Equity Shares of Yatra India are traded in India on the NSE and BSE but there can be no assurance that active trading in the Equity Shares will continue to be sustained. Investors may not be able to sell the Equity Shares at the quoted price if there is no active trading in the Equity Shares. There could be volatility in the Indian stock markets, and the trading price of the Equity Shares could fluctuate significantly as a result of market volatility or due to various internal or external risks. The market price of the Equity Shares may be influenced by many factors, some of which are beyond Yatra India's control, including: - the failure of security analysts to cover the Equity Shares, or changes in the estimates of our performance by analysts; - the activities of competitors or suppliers; - future sales of the Equity Shares by Yatra India or its shareholders; - investor perception of Yatra India and the industry in which it operates; - Yatra India's quarterly or annual earnings or those of Yatra India's competitors; - developments affecting fiscal, industrial or environmental regulations; - the public's reaction to press releases or adverse media reports; and - general economic conditions. We cannot assure you that the price of the Equity Shares of Yatra India will correspond to the price at which Ordinary Shares trade on Nasdaq in the United States. Any fluctuations in the price of Equity Shares, could also impact the trading and price of the Ordinary Shares.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 8
    Conflicts of interest could arise between the interests of Yatra India's shareholders and the interests of holders of the Ordinary Shares, which may impede business decisions that could benefit shareholders.

    Conflicts of interest could arise on account of common directors on our Board and Yatra India, and as a result of the relationships between us and Yatra India. Our directors and officers have duties to us and our shareholders under applicable Cayman Islands law, which may result in a conflict of interest in allocating potential opportunities, management time, services, and other functions between us and Yatra India. Certain directors, officers and key personnel are also officers and key personnel of Yatra India, which may result in competing demands on their time and resources for addressing the requirements of operations and business of our Company and Yatra India which may further lead to (i) conflicts of interest, (ii) impede independent business decision making, (iii) result in actions or inactions that are detrimental to business and operation and harm the implementation of the investment objectives. We cannot be sure that directors, officers, and key personnel acting on behalf of Yatra India will act in our best interests when deciding on matters relevant for business and operations of our Company. We may not be able to resolve conflicts that may arise in future, in a manner which is in best interests of the shareholders of the Equity Shares and Ordinary Shares and can have an adverse impact on our business, operations, and financial position.

    As a foreign private issuer whose Ordinary Shares are listed on the Nasdaq, we are permitted to follow certain home country corporate governance practices in lieu of certain Nasdaq requirements; these practices may afford less protection to shareholders than they would enjoy if we complied fully with Nasdaq Stock Market corporate governance listing requirements applicable to U.S. domestic issuers.

    As a foreign private issuer whose Ordinary Shares are listed on the Nasdaq, we are subject to the Nasdaq Stock Market corporate governance listing requirements. However, Nasdaq Stock Market rules permit a foreign private issuer like us to follow the corporate governance practices of its home country. Certain corporate governance practices in the Cayman Islands, which is our home country, may differ significantly from the Nasdaq Stock Market corporate governance listing requirements.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 10
    We have a staggered Board, which could impede an attempt to acquire our Company or remove our management.

    Our Board is divided into three classes, each of which serves for a staggered term of three years. A staggered board makes it more difficult for shareholders to change a majority of the directors since only a particular class of existing directors may be replaced at any election of directors. This arrangement may have the effect of keeping the current members of our Board in control for a longer period of time than shareholders may desire, and may impede any attempts to take over our Company or change or remove our management. See "As a foreign private issuer whose Ordinary Shares are listed on the Nasdaq, we are permitted to follow certain home country corporate governance practices in lieu of certain Nasdaq requirements; these practices may afford less protection to shareholders than they would enjoy if we complied fully with Nasdaq Stock Market corporate governance listing standards applicable to U.S. domestic issuers."

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 11
    In connection with our Business Combination Agreement, we granted certain shareholders rights to nominate directors for election to our Board and also entered into an Investor Rights Agreement with certain of those shareholders, which provides additional rights to nominate directors for election to our Board. We also entered into cooperation agreements with certain shareholders, pursuant to which we appointed directors to our Board. Except as provided in the Business Combination Agreement and the Investor Rights Agreement and the cooperation agreements, our shareholders do not have the ability to nominate directors for election to our Board.

    On December 16, 2016, we entered into the Investor Rights Agreement with MIHI LLC, the Terrapin Sponsors and certain other Terrapin 3 Acquisition Corp. (the "Investor Rights Agreement") stockholders and Yatra Online shareholders who received certain of our Ordinary Shares in connection with the Business Combination Agreement. The Investor Rights Agreement granted each of MIHI LLC and, collectively, the Terrapin Sponsors the right to designate one representative to attend any or all meetings of our Board in a non-voting observer capacity (the "Board Observer Right"), which terminates when they no longer own at least 5% of our outstanding Ordinary Shares. MIHI LLC no longer holds its Board Observer Right. The Investor Rights Agreement also provides certain of our investors and our executive officers, Dhruv Shringi and Manish Amin, the right to nominate an individual for election to our Board upon the resignation, removal, death or disability of any of the directors initially designated by our Company pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, as well as the right to re-nominate any of such directors who are Class I or Class II directors two successive times and the right to re-nominate any of such directors who are Class III directors one time or to designate a replacement for any such director. See "Our business could be negatively affected as a result of actions of activist shareholders and shareholder advisory firms."

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 12
    An active or liquid trading market for our Ordinary Shares may not be maintained and the trading price for our Ordinary Shares may fluctuate significantly.

    An active, liquid trading market for our Ordinary Shares may not be maintained in the long term and we cannot be certain that any trading market for our Ordinary Shares will be sustained or that the present price will correspond to the future price at which our Ordinary Shares will trade. Loss of liquidity could increase the price volatility of our Ordinary Shares. Any additional issuance of our Ordinary Shares would dilute the positions of existing investors in our Ordinary Shares and could adversely affect the market price of our Ordinary Shares. We cannot assure you that our Ordinary Shares will not decline below their prevailing market price. You may be unable to sell your Ordinary Shares at a price that is attractive to you.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 13
    Outstanding options, which are exercisable for our Ordinary Shares and restricted securities that vest, may increase the number of shares eligible for future resale in the public market and result in dilution to our shareholders.

    As of June 30, 2026, there were outstanding options to purchase an aggregate of 3,026,769 Ordinary Shares (including 3,026,769 Company restricted stock units ("RSU") and performance stock units ("PSUs")), outstanding RSU and PSU which, when vested, may result in the issuance of 3,026,769 Ordinary Shares. Likewise, 3,026,769 outstanding options when exercised, may result in the issuance of 3,026,769 Ordinary Shares. To the extent the above-described options are exercised, the above-described restricted or performance units vest, or if we issue any additional equity securities, including but not limited to options, restricted shares or other derivative securities convertible into our Ordinary Shares, additional Ordinary Shares may be issued, which could result in significant dilution to our shareholders and increase the number of shares eligible for resale in the public market. Sale of a substantial numbers of such shares in the public market, the fact that such options may be exercised, or that a significant number of restricted securities may vest, could adversely affect the market price of our Ordinary Shares.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 14
    The sale or availability for sale of substantial amounts of our Ordinary Shares could adversely affect their market price. This could cause the market price of our Ordinary Shares to drop significantly, even if our business is doing well

    Sales of substantial amounts of our Ordinary Shares in the public market, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of our Ordinary Shares and could materially impair our future ability to raise capital through offerings of our Ordinary Shares. As of June 30, 2026, entities affiliated with MAK Capital One LLC, Apple Orange LLC, Terrapin Partners Employee Partnership 3, LLC and Terrapin Partners Green Employee Partnership, LLC (collectively, the "Terrapin Sponsors") and certain of their affiliated entities (including Nathan Leight), entities and people affiliated with Altai Capital Management, LLC, entities affiliated with The 2020 Timothy J. Maguire Investment Trust and entities affiliated with Vincent Smith, entities affiliated with Marval Guru Fund and Mr. Dhruv Shringi beneficially own approximately 58.33% of the issued and outstanding shares of our Company, assuming the conversion into Ordinary Shares of all Yatra USA, Corp. ("Yatra USA") Class F Shares (the "Yatra USA Class F Shares") based on information known to us or ascertained by us from public filings made by such shareholders. As restrictions on resale end, the market price of our Ordinary Shares could be adversely affected if the holders of previously restricted shares sell them or are perceived by the market as intending to sell them. As of June 30, 2026, we had 62,135,307 Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding, 1,854,871 Class F shares issued and outstanding (each convertible into 0.00001 of an Ordinary Share upon the exchange of a parallel Yatra USA Class F Share), and Yatra USA had 1,854,871 Yatra USA Class F Shares issued and outstanding (each exchangeable for one Ordinary Share in the Company at any time at the option of the holder). Subject to applicable restrictions and limitations under Rule 144 of the Securities Act, all of our shares and the Yatra USA Class F Shares outstanding are eligible for sale in the public market. If these shares are sold, or if it is perceived that they will be sold, in the public market, the trading price of our Ordinary Shares could be adversely affected. We cannot predict what effect, if any, market sales of our Ordinary Shares held by our significant shareholders or any other shareholder or the availability of these ordinary shares for future sale will have on the market price of our Ordinary Shares.

    Future issuances of any equity securities may dilute the interests of our shareholders and decrease the trading price of our Ordinary Shares.

    Any future issuance of equity securities could dilute the interests of our shareholders and could substantially decrease the trading price of our Ordinary Shares. We may issue equity or equity-linked securities in the future, including pursuant to a private investment in public equity or other offering of equity securities, for a number of reasons, including to finance our operations and business strategy (including in connection with acquisitions and other transactions), to adjust our ratio of debt to equity, to satisfy the obligations upon the exercise of then-outstanding options or other equity-linked securities, if any, or for other reasons.

    Raising additional capital may cause dilution to our shareholders, restrict our operations, or require us to relinquish substantial rights.

    To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, your ownership interest will be diluted, and the terms of these new securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect your rights as a holder of our Ordinary Shares. Debt financing, if available at all, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures, or declaring dividends, and may be secured by all or a portion of our assets. Further, we may incur substantial costs in pursuing future capital and/or financing, including investment banking fees, legal fees, accounting fees, printing and distribution expenses and other costs and such efforts may divert our management from their day-to-day activities, which may compromise our ability to develop and market our products. We may also be required to recognize non-cash expenses in connection with certain securities we may issue, such as convertible notes and warrants, which will adversely impact our financial condition.

    We are a Cayman Islands company and because judicial precedent regarding the rights of shareholders is more limited under Cayman Islands law than under U.S. law, you could have less protection of your shareholder rights than you would under U.S. law.

    We are an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to effect service of process within the U.S. upon our directors or executive officers, or enforce judgments obtained in the U.S. courts against our directors or officers. Our corporate affairs are governed by our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, the Companies Act (As Revised) (the "Companies Act") of the Cayman Islands, (as the same may be supplemented or as amended from time to time), and the common law of the Cayman Islands. The rights of shareholders to take action against the directors, actions by minority shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of our directors to us under Cayman Islands law are to a large extent governed by the common law of the Cayman Islands. The common law of the Cayman Islands is derived in part from comparatively limited judicial precedent in the Cayman Islands as well as from English common law, the decisions of whose courts are of persuasive authority, but are not binding on a court in the Cayman Islands. The rights of our shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of our directors under Cayman Islands law are different from such rights and fiduciary responsibilities under statutes or judicial precedent in some jurisdictions in the U.S. In particular, the Cayman Islands has a different body of securities laws as compared to the U.S. and certain U.S. states, such as Delaware, may have more fully developed and judicially interpreted bodies of corporate law. In addition, Cayman Islands companies may not have standing to initiate a shareholders derivative action in a federal court in the U.S. We have been advised by our Cayman Islands legal counsel, Maples and Calder (Cayman) LLP, that the courts of the Cayman Islands are unlikely (i) to recognize or enforce against our Company judgments of courts of the U.S. predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the U.S. or any state and (ii) in original actions brought in the Cayman Islands, to impose liabilities against our Company predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the U.S. or any state, so far as the liabilities imposed by those provisions are penal in nature. In those circumstances, although there is no statutory enforcement in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the U.S., the courts of the Cayman Islands will recognize and enforce a foreign money judgment of a foreign court of competent jurisdiction without retrial on the merits based on the principle that a judgment of a competent foreign court imposes upon the judgment debtor an obligation to pay the sum for which judgment has been given provided certain conditions are met. For a foreign judgment to be enforced in the Cayman Islands, such judgment must be final and conclusive and for a liquidated sum, and must not be in respect of taxes or a fine or penalty, inconsistent with a Cayman Islands judgment in respect of the same matter, impeachable on the grounds of fraud or obtained in a manner, or be of a kind of enforcement of which is, contrary to natural justice or the public policy of the Cayman Islands (awards of punitive or multiple damages may well be held to be contrary to public policy). A Cayman Islands Court may stay enforcement proceedings if concurrent proceedings are being brought elsewhere. As a result of all of the above, public shareholders may have more difficulty in protecting their interests in the face of actions taken by management, members of the board of directors or controlling shareholders than they would as public shareholders of a U.S. company

    Our business could be negatively affected as a result of actions of activist shareholders and shareholder advisory firms.

    Campaigns by shareholders to effect changes at publicly traded companies are sometimes led by investors seeking to increase short-term shareholder value through actions such as financial restructuring, increased debt, special dividends, share repurchases or sales of assets or the entire company. For example, in July 2021, we received a letter from the 2020 Timothy J. Maguire Investment Trust, one of our shareholders, recommending that we make certain operational changes, restructure our corporate governance, and refresh our Board membership. On January 17, 2022, we entered into a Cooperation Agreement ("Maguire Cooperation Agreement"), wherein we agreed to appoint Roshan Mendis to the Board, for a term of office that initially expired at the 2023 annual general meeting of shareholders. Pursuant to the First Amendment to Maguire Cooperation Agreement dated August 29, 2023, Mr. Roshan Mendis was further nominated to serve as a Class I director of the Board, for a term expiring at the 2026 annual general meeting of shareholders. In addition, the First Amendment to Maguire Cooperation Agreement extended the Standstill Period (as defined in the Maguire Cooperation Agreement) to the period commencing on August 29, 2023 and ending on the date that is the earlier to occur of (i) the date of the 2026 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders or (ii) 60 calendar days following the resignation of the New Director (as defined in the Maguire Cooperation Agreement) (or Replacement Director (as defined in the Maguire Cooperation Agreement)). The shareholders at the annual general meeting held on September 28, 2023 approved the said nomination and re-appointed Mr. Roshan Mendis. In July 2022, we received notice from MAK Capital One L.L.C., one of our shareholders, recommending that we make certain corporate governance and board structure changes, in addition to changes to our composition and stockholder engagement process. On July 17, 2022, we entered a Cooperation Agreement ("MAK Cooperation Agreement") with MAK Capital One L.L.C., pursuant to which Michael A. Kaufman was initially appointed to the Board for a term expiring at the 2023 annual general meeting of shareholders. Pursuant to the First Amendment dated August 29, 2023 to MAK Cooperation Agreement, Mr. Michael A. Kaufman was further nominated to serve as a Class I director of the Board, for a term expiring at the 2026 annual general meeting of shareholders. The shareholders at the annual general meeting held on September 28, 2023 approved the said nomination and re-appointed Mr. Michael A. Kaufman. On October 16, 2024, we entered into the Second Amendment to the MAK Cooperation Agreement. The Second Amendment, among other things, extended the Standstill Period (as defined in the MAK Cooperation Agreement) to the period commencing on October 16, 2024, and ending on the date that is the earlier to occur of (i) 30 calendar days prior to the date of the Company's 2025 annual general meeting or (ii) 60 calendar days following the resignation of the Investor Group Designee (as defined in the MAK Cooperation Agreement). On November 11, 2025, we entered into the Third Amendment to the MAK Cooperation Agreement commencing on November, 11 2025, and ending on the date that is the earlier to occur of (i) 30 calendar days prior to the date of the Company's 2026 annual general meeting or (ii) 60 calendar days following the resignation of the Investor Group Designee (as defined in the MAK Cooperation Agreement). If we become engaged in a process or proxy contest with an activist shareholder in the future, our business could be adversely affected, as such activities could be costly and time-consuming, disrupt our operations and divert the attention of management and our employees from executing our business plan. Additionally, perceived uncertainties as to our future direction as a result of shareholder activism or actual or potential changes to the composition of our Board of Directors or management team may lead to the perception of a change in the direction of our business, instability or lack of continuity, which may be exploited by our competitors, cause concern to current or potential clients and financing sources and make it more difficult to attract and retain qualified personnel. If potential or existing clients or customers choose to delay, defer, or reduce transactions with us or transact with our competitors instead of us because of any such issues, then our results of operations could be adversely affected. Similarly, we may suffer damage to our reputation (for example, regarding our corporate governance or shareholder relations) or brand by way of actions taken or statements made by outside constituents, including activist investors and shareholder advisory firms, which could adversely affect the market price of our ordinary shares, resulting in significant loss of value, which could impact our ability to access capital, increase our cost of capital, and decrease our ability to acquire properties on attractive terms.

    If securities or industry analysts do not continue to publish research or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, the market price for Ordinary Shares and Equity Shares and trading volume could be adversely impacted.

    The trading markets for our Ordinary Shares and/or Equity Shares will rely in part on the research reports that equity research analysts publish about Yatra India and our business. While research analysts in India are subject to applicable laws, including those of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Research Analysts) Regulations, 2014, we do not control the analysts, or the reports published by analysts thereof. If research analysts do not maintain adequate research coverage of Yatra India or us or if one or more of the analysts who covers us or Yatra India downgrades our Ordinary Shares or Equity Shares or publishes inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, the market price for our Ordinary Shares or Equity Shares may be adversely impacted. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of Yatra India or us or fail to publish reports or publish negative but complete, accurate and fair reports it could have material adverse impact on our business, operations, market price or trading volume for Ordinary Shares or Equity Shares.

    A downgrade in ratings of India, may affect the trading price of the Ordinary Shares.

    Yatra India's borrowing costs and access to the debt capital markets depend significantly on the credit ratings of India. India's sovereign rating decreased from Baa2 with a "negative" outlook to Baa3 with a "negative" outlook by Moody's and from BBB with a "stable" outlook to BBB with a "negative" outlook (Fitch) in June 2020. India's sovereign ratings from S&P is BBB-with a "stable" outlook. Any further adverse revisions to India's credit ratings for domestic and international debt by international rating agencies may adversely impact Yatra India's ability to raise additional financing and the interest rates and other commercial terms at which such financing is available, including raising any overseas additional financing. A downgrading of India's credit ratings may occur, for example, upon a change of government tax or fiscal policy, which are outside our control. This could have an adverse effect on our ability to fund our growth on favorable terms or at all, and consequently adversely affect our business and financial performance and the price of the Ordinary Shares.

FAQ

What are “Risk Factors”?
Risk factors are any situations or occurrences that could make investing in a company risky. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires that publicly traded companies disclose their most significant risk factors. This is so that potential investors can consider any risks before they make an investment. They also offer companies protection, as a company can use risk factors as liability protection. This could happen if a company underperforms and investors take legal action as a result. It is worth noting that smaller companies, that is those with a public float of under $75 million on the last business day, do not have to include risk factors in their 10-K and 10-Q forms, although some may choose to do so.
How do companies disclose their risk factors?
Publicly traded companies initially disclose their risk factors to the SEC through their S-1 filings as part of the IPO process. Additionally, companies must provide a complete list of risk factors in their Annual Reports (Form 10-K) or (Form 20-F) for “foreign private issuers”. Quarterly Reports also include a section on risk factors (Form 10-Q) where companies are only required to update any changes since the previous report. According to the SEC, risk factors should be reported concisely, logically and in “plain English” so investors can understand them.
How can I use TipRanks risk factors in my stock research?
Use the Risk Factors tab to get data about the risk factors of any company in which you are considering investing. You can easily see the most significant risks a company is facing. Additionally, you can find out which risk factors a company has added, removed or adjusted since its previous disclosure. You can also see how a company’s risk factors compare to others in its sector. Without reading company reports or participating in conference calls, you would most likely not have access to this sort of information, which is usually not included in press releases or other public announcements. A simplified analysis of risk factors is unique to TipRanks.
