Hilton Opens 55th Hotel in Mexico, Expands Homewood Suites
Read MoreHide Full Article
Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc. (HLT - Free Report) is known for its scale, size and commercial platform. The company has a portfolio of more than 100 hotels and resorts in Latin America. Hilton is actively pursuing growth opportunities in Latin American and currently has more than 70 hotels in the region, including nearly 30 projects in Mexico. Also, the company has fortified its global hold apart from expanding in the domestic market.
In line with this expansion strategy, Hilton recently launched Homewood Suites by Hilton Silao Airport in Mexico. Being the 55th Hilton hotel in the country, it will offer 139 suites and is located in close proximity to the main commercial hub. It also conveniently positioned near the El Bajío International Airport.
Notably, Homewood Suites by Hilton has been gaining significant traction. The brand currently has two properties in Mexico and a growing pipeline of upcoming hotels in Dominican Republic and Peru. The latest hotel launch not only adds to the company’s brand portfolio but will also help it gain traction in key markets.
On Jan 4, Hilton completed the spin-off of Park Hotels & Resorts, Inc. (PK - Free Report) and Hilton Grand Vacations Inc. (HGV - Free Report) , resulting in three independent, publicly-traded companies. On the same day, the company put the previously announced 1-for-3 reverse stock split into effect. All these developments are expected to make Hilton a fee-based, capital efficient and resilient business, with substantial global expansion potential.
Post the split, the company’s shares have rallied nearly 31.9% to date and the S&P 500 market gained 16.3%.
However, macroeconomic fluctuations, unfavorable currency translation and competition from larger hoteliers like Marriott International, Inc. (MAR - Free Report) might dent Hilton’s top line.
Last year, it generated $8 billion in global revenues. By 2020, it's predicted to blast through the roof to $47 billion. Famed investor Mark Cuban says it will produce "the world's first trillionaires," but that should still leave plenty of money for regular investors who make the right trades early.
