What are Wall Street analysts saying about Expedia Group stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Expedia Group stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Expedia reported third quarter results wherein both earnings and revenues improved year over year on the back of growing gross bookings and stayed room nights. Moreover, strong performance of HomeAway, Brand Expedia, Expedia Partner Solutions and Hotels.com drove the results further. Additionally, the company’s strong initiatives toward strengthening footprints in the domestic regions continued to aid growth to its domestic stayed room nights. 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 will also continue to aid the lodging revenues of Expedia. Notably, the stock has outperformed the industry it belongs to on a year-to-date basis. However, sluggishness in the company’s trivago segment remains an overhang. Also, intensifying competition in the online travel space is a concern." (11/13/2018)
- 2. SunTrust Banks, Inc. analysts commented, "We maintain a BUY/$180 PT following analysis of 3Q data, which indicate flat/modestly-higher room night growth Q/Q, along with signs of progress on growth initiatives. Our analysis suggests that despite easy Y/Y comps for 3Q and improving conversions (based on our analysis), a meaningful pick-up in room night will likely be held back by weak meta-search and EXPE’s focus on honing its ad efficiency (by leveraging cloud-based analytics). We see solid progress on mgt’s push to expand selection, with our analysis of data sample suggesting ~50-60K hotel listings additions (consistent with 1H18). The net impact on room nights growth: Our proprietary analysis indicates 0-200bps Q/Q pickup in room nights for EXPE’s global brands (Expedia, Hotels.com) in 3Q, implying 12-14% Y/Y reported room night growth for 3Q (Cons. is ~14%, we think Buy-side is lower)." (10/16/2018)
- 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."
