Hyatt (H) to Announce Q4 Earnings: What's in the Cards?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Hyatt Hotels Corporation (H - Free Report) is scheduled to report fourth-quarter 2021 results on Feb 16, 2022, after the closing bell. In the last reported quarter, the company delivered an earnings surprise of 692.3%.
Trend in Estimate Revision
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the fourth-quarter bottom line is pegged at a loss of 12 cents per share, indicating an improvement of 93.2% from a loss of $1.77 reported in the year-ago quarter.
For revenues, the consensus mark is pegged at approximately $1,150 million, suggesting a surge of 171.2% from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure.
Let's take a look at how things have shaped up in the quarter.
Factors to Note
Hyatt’s fourth-quarter 2021 performance is likely to have benefitted from strong leisure transient demand, market share growth and a rise in bookings coming from existing loyalty members. During the previous quarter’s earnings call, the company stated that leisure transient revenue booked in October for all periods was over 20% ahead of 2019 levels. With a sequential reduction in cancellations coupled with progression of group and business transient demand, the momentum is likely to have persisted in the fourth quarter as well. Focus on direct channel business coupled with the integration of new growth platforms (through Apple Leisure Group acquisition) is likely to have aided the company’s performance in the to-be-reported quarter.
The solid performance of Owned and leased hotels as well as managed and the franchised business segment is likely to have driven the top line in the fourth quarter. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Owned and leased hotels revenues is currently pegged at $279 million, indicating growth of 206.6% from $91 million in the year-ago quarter. The consensus mark for Management and franchise fees is pegged at $134 million, indicating a surge of 127.1% from $59 million reported in the previous quarter.
The negative influence of the omicron variant on hotel bookings coupled with supply chain issues are likely to have hurt the company’s operations in the fourth quarter. Although sequential improvements in RevPAR are likely, it is still anticipated to remain below the pre-pandemic levels in the to-be-reported quarter.
