The financial results of travel and hospitality giants like Booking Holdings, Airbnb and Expedia will bring them to the forefront. The numbers provided will give more information about the growth of the companies and their impact on the travel market. The article gives their predictions ahead of the results.
Stock price Analysis of Airbnb
Airbnb, a leading player in travel and hospitality offers worldwide vacation rentals. The perceived benefits of its services have led millions to use them each quarter.
Airbnb has seen its business slow down in recent years due to increased competition by companies such as Booking and Expedia. Recent results show that Airbnb’s fourth-quarter revenues rose by 12 percent to $2.5 Billion, which brings the total annual revenue to $11.1 Billion. Net income increased by 19%, to $461 millions. The annual figure jumped from $2.6 billion to $2.6 trillion.
Analysts predict that Airbnb will report a 5.5% increase in revenue for Q1. This is compared to the same quarter of last year.
In the last few months, the price of Airbnb has come under increasing pressure. Its stock price, which initially surged after its earnings announcement, has since lost those gains. Today it is trading at $122.
The daily chart has a death-cross pattern, which means that the downward trend will continue even after earnings. Support and resistance will be held at $130 and $100 (200-day average).
