UBS analysts expect Marriott International (MAR) and Hilton Worldwide (HLT) to report second-quarter revenue per available room (RevPAR) above their guidance, signaling continued momentum in travel demand.

Rating Change

UBS maintained its ratings on both stocks but raised Q2 RevPAR estimates. The current price target for Marriott is $290 and for Hilton $210.

Analyst Rationale

Analysts believe strong leisure and business travel demand, particularly in the U.S. and European markets, will push RevPAR 3-5% above the high end of both companies' guidance. Improved average daily rates are offsetting any occupancy softness.

Context

The optimistic outlook follows a strong Q1 for the hotel sector. Marriott shares are up 12% year-to-date, Hilton 10%. Other analysts, including Goldman Sachs and Barclays, also hold positive views on the sector.

Conclusion

UBS estimates suggest Marriott and Hilton could deliver better-than-expected Q2 results, potentially supporting their stock prices in the near term. Investors are closely watching upcoming earnings reports.

Frequently Asked Questions

Revenue Per Available Room is a hotel performance metric calculated by multiplying average daily rate by occupancy rate, reflecting a hotel's ability to generate revenue from its rooms.
