Airbnb (ABNB) to Report Q4 Earnings: What's in the Cards?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Airbnb (ABNB - Free Report) is scheduled to report fourth-quarter 2023 results on Feb 13.
For the fourth quarter, Airbnb expects revenues between $2.13 billion and $2.17 billion, implying year-over-year growth in the band of 12-14% on a reported basis.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the same is pegged at $2.16 billion, indicating growth of 13.7% from the year-ago quarter’s reported value.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings is pegged at 67 cents per share, suggesting growth of 39.6% from the year-ago reported figure.
Airbnb’s earnings surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in all the trailing four quarters, the average being 49.99%.
Let’s see how things have shaped up for this announcement.
Airbnb’s fourth-quarter 2023 results are expected to have benefited from the solid momentum in Nights and Experiences booked across all geographies, owing to growing demand among first-time bookers.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for fourth-quarter Nights and Experiences Booked is pegged at 97.85 million, indicating growth of 10.9% from the year-ago reported figure.
Further, the growing Average Daily Rate, driven by a mix shift across EMEA and Asia Pacific regions, is expected to have impacted the to-be-reported quarter’s performance.
Growing momentum across international expansion markets, particularly in the Asia-Pacific region, is likely to have aided cross-border travel growth during the fourth quarter.
All these factors are expected to have driven growth in gross booking value (GBV) in the fourth quarter. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for GBV is pegged at $15.12 billion, indicating growth of 12% from the reported figure in the year-ago quarter.
The company’s growing awareness around hosting and new features introduced for hosts are likely to have acted as tailwinds for the company in the to-be-reported quarter.
Strong momentum in active listings, owing to supply growth across all regions, is expected to have bolstered the company’s top-line performance during the quarter under review.
However, intense competition in the online travel market is anticipated to have remained an overhang in the to-be-reported quarter.
Also, growing macroeconomic challenges and the impacts of geopolitical conflicts may have been major concerns.
