The coworking space company reported a $397 million net loss on Tuesday, sending its stock plummeting by over 20 percent. WeWork's loss may sound shocking, but it's actually an improvement over its abysmal results from the same time last year. The company lost $635 million in 2022's second quarter — $238 million more than this year.

"The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon successful execution of management’s plan to improve liquidity and profitability over the next 12 months," WeWork said in a press release.

WeWork listed several strategies it's implementing to save itself, such as reducing spending, focusing on bringing in new clients while keeping the ones they have, re-negotiating its leases for better terms, and getting some cash in via selling assets or leaning on equity.

"The company’s transformation continues at pace, with a laser focus on member retention and growth, doubling down on our real estate portfolio optimization efforts, and maintaining a disciplined approach to reducing operating costs," said Tolley.
