Hotel operator reported $2.29 adjusted EPS and $3.34 billion revenue, lifted its 2026 currency-neutral RevPAR growth forecast to 3%-3.5%, but investors focused on regional weakness and a softer fourth-quarter backdrop.
Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc. reported solid second-quarter 2026 results and slightly beat revenue expectations, with adjusted EPS of $2.29 and revenue of $3.34 billion, up 6.5% from a year earlier. The company raised its full-year currency-neutral RevPAR outlook to 3% to 3.5% from 2% to 3%, helped by stronger tourism and pricing tied to the recently concluded FIFA World Cup co-hosted by the United States, Canada and Mexico. Even so, Hilton shares fell about 3.4% as investors weighed uneven demand, including a 29.5% RevPAR decline in the Middle East and Africa, and management’s warning that fourth-quarter results could be pressured by calendar shifts and the U.S. midterm elections.
