AI brief of an SEC Form 8-K · Host Hotels & Resorts (HST)

Host Hotels & Resorts Q3 net income falls 25.7% to $84 million; profit outlook cut

Mixed Impact 4 of 5 earnings Written later

Host reported third-quarter 2024 revenue of $1.319 billion, up 8.6% from a year earlier, while net income fell 25.7% to $84 million and Adjusted EBITDAre fell 10.2% to $324 million, partly due to lower insurance gains and 2023 business interruption proceeds. The company cut its full-year 2024 net income and Adjusted EBITDAre forecast midpoints by $25 million and $15 million, though it kept its comparable hotel RevPAR and Total RevPAR guidance unchanged. Shareholders face lower expected 2024 earnings, with hurricane damage continuing to affect Florida properties into 2025.

  • Third-quarter revenues were $1.319 billion, up 8.6% from $1.214 billion; diluted EPS was $0.12 versus $0.16.
  • Full-year 2024 net income guidance midpoint is $687 million, down from $712 million; Adjusted EBITDAre guidance midpoint is $1,630 million, down from $1,645 million.

  • The Don CeSar remains closed after Hurricanes Helene and Milton, with a phased reopening expected beginning in late first quarter 2025.
