System Size and Development
| | | Rooms | ||||
| | | March 31, | | March 31, | | YOY |
| United States | | 502,600 | | 499,100 | | 70 |
| International | | 404,600 | | 377,200 | | 730 |
| Global | | 907,200 | | 876,300 | | 350 |
The Company's global system grew 4%. Importantly, these results included 4% growth in the higher RevPAR midscale and above segments in the U.S., as well as strong growth in the Company's higher RevPAR EMEA and Latin America regions, which grew a combined 6%. The Company remains on track to achieve its net room growth outlook of 3.6% to 4.6% for the full year 2025.
On March 31, 2025, the Company's global development pipeline consisted of approximately 2,140 hotels and 254,000 rooms, representing another record-high level and a 5% year-over-year increase. Key highlights include:
- 5% growth in the U.S. and 4% internationally
- 19th consecutive quarter of sequential pipeline growth
- Approximately 70% of the pipeline is in the midscale and above segments, which grew 7% year-over-year
- Approximately 17% of the pipeline is in the extended stay segment
- Approximately 58% of the pipeline is international
- Approximately 77% of the pipeline is new construction and approximately 35% of these projects have broken ground
- During first quarter 2025, the Company awarded 181 new contracts, an increase of 6% year-over-year.
RevPAR
| | | First Quarter 2025 | | YOY |
| United States | | $ 42.37 | | 2 % |
| International | | 28.73 | | 3 |
| Global | | 36.13 | | 2 |
First quarter global RevPAR increased 2% in constant currency compared to 2024, reflecting 2% growth in the U.S. and 3% growth internationally.
In the U.S., RevPAR growth includes 100 basis points of benefit from hurricanes and the timing of the Easter holiday. Excluding those factors, the Company's U.S. RevPAR grew 60 basis points year-over-year as pricing strength was partially offset by softer demand with the pullback more pronounced during March.
Internationally, RevPAR growth was also driven by pricing power. The Company continued to see strong performance in its EMEA and Latin America regions, with year-over-year growth of 6% and 25%, respectively, reflecting robust pricing power, partially offset by modest occupancy declines. In China, demand remained steady but RevPAR declined 8% year-over-year reflecting continued pricing pressure.
First Quarter Operating Results
The comparability of the Company's first quarter results is impacted by marketing fund variability. The Company's reported results and comparable-basis results (adjusted to neutralize these impacts) are presented below to enhance transparency and provide a better understanding of the results of the Company's ongoing operations.
| | Fee-related | | Net | | Adjusted | | Reported | | Adjusted |
| 2024 reported | $ 304 | | $ 16 | | $ 141 | | $ 0.19 | | $ 0.78 |
| | | | | | | | | | |
| 2025 reported | 316 | | 61 | | 145 | | 0.78 | | 0.86 |
| Change | 12 | | 45 | | 4 | | 0.59 | | 0.08 |

| | | | |
| NOTE: Growth rates may not recalculate due to rounding; see Table 7 for a reconciliation of non-GAAP metrics and Table 9 for definitions. | |||
| (a) Includes estimated tax impact of marketing fund variability. | |||
- Fee-related and other revenues grew 4% to $316 million compared to $304 million in first quarter 2024, which reflects higher royalties and franchise fees and higher ancillary revenues.
- The Company generated net income of $61 million compared to $16 million in first quarter 2024. The increase primarily reflects lower transaction-related expenses in connection with defending an unsuccessful hostile takeover attempt. Other items primarily include the absence of impairment and restructuring costs recorded in first quarter 2024, partially offset by higher interest expense. Adjusted net income grew 5% to $67 million compared to $64 million in first quarter 2024.
- Adjusted EBITDA grew 3% to $145 million compared to $141 million in first quarter 2024. This increase included an $8 million unfavorable impact from marketing fund variability, excluding which adjusted EBITDA grew 9% on a comparable basis, primarily reflecting higher fee-related revenues and margin expansion.
- Diluted earnings per share was $0.78 compared to $0.19 in first quarter 2024. This increase reflects higher net income and the benefit of a lower share count due to share repurchase activity.
- Adjusted diluted EPS grew 10% to $0.86 compared to $0.78 in first quarter 2024. This increase included an unfavorable impact of $0.07 per share related to marketing fund variability (after estimated taxes). On a comparable basis, adjusted diluted EPS increased approximately 20% year-over-year, reflecting comparable adjusted EBITDA growth, lower depreciation and amortization and the benefit of share repurchase activity, partially offset by higher interest expense.
- During first quarter 2025, the Company's marketing fund expenses exceeded revenues by $22 million; while in first quarter 2024, the Company's marketing fund expenses exceeded revenues by $14 million, resulting in $8 million of marketing fund variability.
Full reconciliations of GAAP results to the Company's non-GAAP adjusted measures for all reported periods appear in the tables to this press release.
Balance Sheet and Liquidity
The Company generated $59 million of net cash provided by operating activities and $80 million of free cash flow in first quarter 2025. The Company ended the quarter with a cash balance of $48 million and approximately $637 million in total liquidity.
The Company's net debt leverage ratio was 3.5 times at March 31, 2025, at the midpoint of the Company's 3 to 4 times stated target range and in line with expectations.
Share Repurchases and Dividends
During the first quarter, the Company repurchased approximately 797,000 shares of its common stock for $76 million.
The Company paid common stock dividends of $33 million, or $0.41 per share, during the first quarter 2025.
Full-Year 2025 Outlook
The Company is refining its outlook to reflect a softer-than-expected RevPAR environment. The updated range reflects a variety of potential outcomes for the remainder of the year, from a more optimistic scenario in which the softness seen in March and April proves to be temporary, to a more cautious view that contemplates persistent pressure on demand throughout the remainder of the year.
| | | Updated Outlook | | Prior Outlook | |
| Year-over-year rooms growth | | 3.6% - 4.6% | | 3.6% - 4.6% | |
| Year-over-year global RevPAR growth (a) | | (2%) - 1% | | 2% - 3% | |
| Fee-related and other revenues | | $1.45 - $1.49 billion | | $1.49 - $1.51 billion | |
| Adjusted EBITDA | | $730 - $745 million | | $745 - $755 million | |
| Adjusted net income | | $358 - $372 million | | $369 - $379 million | |
| Adjusted diluted EPS | | $4.57 - $4.74 | | $4.66 - $4.78 | |
| Free cash flow conversion rate | | ~57% | | 57% - 60% | |
| | | | | | |
| (a) | Represents constant currency basis; on a reported basis, which includes foreign currency impacts, would be (3%) - 0%. | ||||
The Company continues to expect marketing fund revenues to approximate expenses during full-year 2025 though seasonality of spend will affect the quarterly comparisons throughout the year.
More detailed projections are available in Table 8 of this press release. The Company is providing certain financial metrics only on a non-GAAP basis because, without unreasonable efforts, it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the occurrence or amount of all of the adjustments or other potential adjustments that may arise in the future during the forward-looking period, which can be dependent on future events that may not be reliably predicted. Based on past reported results, where one or more of these items have been applicable, such excluded items could be material, individually or in the aggregate, to the reported results.

Presentation of Financial Information
Financial information discussed in this press release includes non-GAAP measures, which include or exclude certain items.

The Company uses these measures internally to assess its operating performance, both absolutely and in comparison to other companies, and to make day to day operating decisions, including in the evaluation of selected compensation decisions.

| The tables below reconcile certain non-GAAP financial measures. The presentation of these adjustments is intended to permit the comparison of particular adjustments as they appear in the income statement in order to assist investors' understanding of the overall impact of such adjustments. We believe that adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS financial measures provide useful information to investors about us and our financial condition and results of operations because these measures are used by our management team to evaluate our operating performance and make day-to-day operating decisions and adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties as a common performance measure to compare results or estimate valuations across companies in our industry. These measures also assist our investors in evaluating our ongoing operating performance for the current reporting period and, where provided, over different reporting periods, by adjusting for certain items which may be recurring or non-recurring and which in our view do not necessarily reflect ongoing performance. We also internally use these measures to assess our operating performance, both absolutely and in comparison to other companies, and in evaluating or making selected compensation decisions. These supplemental disclosures are in addition to GAAP reported measures. These non-GAAP reconciliation tables should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, nor superior to, financial results and measures determined or calculated in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies. | |||||||||

| The Company is refining its outlook to reflect a softer-than-expected RevPAR environment. The updated range reflects a variety of potential outcomes for the remainder of the year, from a more optimistic scenario in which the softness seen in March and April proves to be temporary, to a more cautious view that contemplates persistent pressure on demand throughout the remainder of the year. | ||
