What are Wall Street analysts saying about Expedia Group stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Expedia Group stock:
- 1. SunTrust Banks, Inc. analysts commented, "We see incremental tailwinds to EXPE’s growth from the rollout of its distribution-partnership with Thomas Cook starting mid-3Q and its continued ramp over coming quarters. Separately, EXPE’s 3-year commitment to the prestigious UEFA sponsorship should help drive awareness for flagship brands (Expedia, Hotels.com), helping monetize investments aimed at expanding the property selection and positioning the business for sustainable growth, LT. S&M expense is likely to remain elevated, consistent with our current expectations. 2H18/ 2019. We note that the partnership with Thomas Cook (TCG-LON, NR), which was announced last fall (see link to our note) started to rollout across select markets in mid-3Q (UK rolled in late July)." (9/5/2018)
- 2. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Expedia reported solid second quarter results wherein both earnings and revenues have exhibited year over year growth owing to its increasing gross bookings. The company’s well performing HomeAway and improving stayed room nights numbers are major positives. Additionally, the company’s strong initiatives toward strengthening footprints in the domestic regions helped in aiding growth to the domestic stayed room nights during the quarter. We believe the company’s strength in Core OTA, Brand Expedia, Hotels.com, Expedia Partner Solutions and Egencia will continue to benefit its market position. The expansion of global lodging portfolio by adding new properties will also continue to aid the lodging revenues of Expedia. However, weakness in Trivago and unfavorable changes in its marketplace are major negatives. Notably, the stock has underperformed the industry it belongs to over a year." (8/21/2018)
- 3. Benchmark Co. analysts commented, "We don’t think the latter is that important at this stage in the game given the Company’s focus on shifting the business model rather than supply and customer acquisition, with strength in the underlying core business a better indicator of management’s current investment plans. Still, the miss could spark some discussion around the increasingly competitive alternative lodging landscape and HomeAway’s eventual ability to compete head to head with AirBnB, among others, in an expansion process. Alternatively, the revenue upside from the transactional focus helped drive part of the strong EBITDA beat in the quarter, and while we expect management will reinvest upside into phase 2 expansion plans beginning in 2019, evidence that HomeAway could end up with margins closer to the hotel business should drive incremental optimism around the long-term cash flow story."
