Host Hotels & Resorts (HST) has confirmed a quarterly dividend of US$0.20 per share and also declared the same rate for its third quarter dividend, maintaining stability. It continues to remain a subject of market interest, receiving a reputable rating by Wells Fargo and Baird, among others, despite being perceived as significantly undervalued in the market. Their fourth quarter 2024 earnings and first quarter 2025 reports indicated strong revenue growth and RevPAR growth, further solidifying its position. The hotel chain has also made notable asset transactions, selling the Metro Center Marriott for $128M and exploring sales of more than $1 billion of hotels. However, the stock has seen some dips following Q2 2025 earnings forecasts. Despite recession risks and periods of underperformance, HST has demonstrated strong results for Q1 and Q2 2025, beating top-line estimates with increased revenues and revenue per available room (RevPAR). Furthermore, developments like an agreement to acquire Turtle Bay Resort in Hawaii and the acquisition of 1 Hotel Central Park indicate progress. However, the company's rating has seen a downward revision from Jefferies and was downgraded by JP Morgan due to high prices.
