MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

Expedia Group
Bull Case

green Wall Street bull icon

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Expedia Group, Inc.:

  • Expedia Group, Inc. recently reported second-quarter 2026 earnings that significantly exceeded market expectations, with actual earnings per share of $5.76 beating the consensus estimate of $5.22 by $0.54, demonstrating strong operational performance and profitability that can drive shareholder value.
  • The company's revenue growth has accelerated, with the most recent quarter showing a 14.0% year-over-year increase to $4.32 billion, outpacing the consensus estimate of $4.17 billion, which indicates robust demand for its travel booking services and effective market expansion.
  • Expedia Group, Inc. is currently trading at $298.04, which is below the average analyst price target of $318.71, suggesting that the stock may be undervalued relative to Wall Street's expectations for its future growth and earnings potential.
  • Recent institutional activity shows significant confidence in the company, as Wellington Management Group LLP increased its position by 67.7% in the second quarter, and Munich Reinsurance Co Stock Corp in Munich acquired a new stake of 62,830 shares, indicating that large investors are accumulating shares.
  • The company maintains a strong financial position with a return on equity of 87.32% and a net margin of 12.97% in the latest quarter, reflecting efficient capital management and the ability to convert revenue into profit effectively.

Expedia Group
Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

Investors should be bearish about investing in Expedia Group, Inc. for these reasons:

  • Corporate insiders have been consistently selling shares, with over 11,950 shares sold in the last 90 days valued at approximately $3.88 million, including recent sales by Director Craig Jacobson and CAO Lance Soliday, which may signal a lack of confidence from those closest to the company's operations.
  • The stock has a beta of 1.25, meaning it is more volatile than the overall market, and it recently experienced a price decline of $5.10 to $298.04, indicating that investors may face higher risk of price fluctuations compared to less volatile assets.
  • Expedia Group, Inc. carries a debt-to-equity ratio of 2.21, which is relatively high and suggests that the company relies significantly on debt financing, potentially increasing financial risk if interest rates rise or if revenue growth slows down.
  • The current consensus rating from analysts is "Hold," with 22 analysts assigning a Hold rating compared to 18 Buy ratings, indicating that the majority of Wall Street sees limited near-term upside potential or is cautious about the stock's current valuation.
  • Short interest has been a persistent factor, with 5,565,164 shares shorted as of the latest record date, representing about 4.89% of the float, which could lead to downward pressure on the stock price if short sellers continue to increase their positions.
