Beat revenue estimates. The company saw revenue figures of $5.46 billion, beating our consensus estimate of $4.89 billion.
Marriott’s fourth quarter net income of $244 million was 21% higher year-over-year. The company’s EBITDA totaled $756 million the fourth quarter, an 11% increase year-over-year.
Marriott repurchased 8 million shares of its common stocking totaling $573 million, which includes 4.3 million shares for $348 million in the fourth quarter alone. And in late September 2016, Marriott finalized its acquisition of Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide.
"The company delivered record high fee revenues in 2016, boosted by significant unit growth,” said President and CEO Arne M. Sorenson in a press release.
“We added 11 leading brands to our portfolio as a result of the acquisition and welcomed the 6,000th hotel to our system. Together with owners and franchisees, Marriott and Starwood added more than 68,000 rooms during the year and, despite a tightening credit market, drove our pipeline of hotels under development to more than 420,000 rooms.”
