The headline driver behind the quarter's resilience was a record full-year adjusted EBITDA of $625.62 million and a surge in global development activity, with hotel openings climbing 14% for the full year and international net rooms expanding 12.5% to nearly 160,000 rooms. A softer domestic backdrop weighed on results, as U.S. RevPAR declined on a reported basis amid weakened government and international inbound demand, though management noted the prior year carried a significant hurricane-related tailwind. Deutsche Bank raised its price target to $119 following the results, maintaining a Hold rating. Looking ahead, Choice guided FY 2026 adjusted diluted EPS of $6.92 to $7.14, with global RevPAR growth projected in a range of -2% to 1%.
