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.

Marriott International
Bull Case

green Wall Street bull icon

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Marriott International, Inc.:

  • Marriott International, Inc. recently demonstrated strong earnings performance, reporting $3.19 in earnings per share for the quarter ended August 3rd, which exceeded the analyst consensus estimate of $3.08 by $0.11, indicating that the company is generating higher profits than expected by the market.
  • The stock is currently trading at $334.00, which is significantly below the consensus price target of $385.88 set by analysts, suggesting that the market may be undervaluing the company relative to its expected future growth and profitability.
  • Marriott International, Inc. has expanded its corporate travel distribution strategy by integrating with Spotnana, a corporate travel technology platform, which is intended to make its hotels more accessible to business travelers and potentially drive higher occupancy rates and revenue.
  • The company has shown resilience in its Middle East operations, with revenue per available room declining 12% year over year in July, a sharp improvement from the 43% decline seen in the second quarter, suggesting that demand in this region is recovering despite ongoing regional conflicts.
  • Marriott International, Inc. continues to grow its global footprint by signing new deals, such as a Ritz-Carlton resort in Kemer, Türkiye, and three new hotels in New Zealand with CP Group, which indicates a commitment to expanding its luxury and full-service brand presence in key international markets.

Marriott International
Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

Investors should be bearish about investing in Marriott International, Inc. for these reasons:

  • Marriott International, Inc. has a high price-to-earnings ratio of 34.61, which means investors are paying a premium for each dollar of earnings, potentially limiting the upside if the company's earnings growth slows down or if market sentiment shifts negatively.
  • The stock has experienced a decline from its 52-week high of $410.98 to its current price of $334.00, indicating a significant drop in value over the past year that may reflect broader market concerns or company-specific challenges.
  • Marriott International, Inc. has a beta of 1.11, which means the stock is slightly more volatile than the overall market, potentially exposing investors to greater price swings and risk during periods of market uncertainty.
  • The company's dividend yield is relatively low at 0.87%, which may not be attractive to income-focused investors who are seeking higher returns from dividends compared to other investment options.
  • Marriott International, Inc. has a negative return on equity of 75.81%, which indicates that the company is not efficiently using its shareholders' equity to generate profits, potentially signaling underlying financial or operational issues.
