Wyndham Hotels & Resorts Inc (WH) (Q3 2026) Earnings Call Highlights: US RevPAR Surges

Wyndham Hotels reported Q3 2026 earnings with US RevPAR up 6% driven by strong demand, while international RevPAR declined 3%. Net room growth outlook narrowed to 4%. CEO Geoffrey Ballotti attributed US RevPAR growth to broad-based demand and resilient consumers. The company expects a durable demand tailwind from infrastructure investments. International markets, particularly China and the Middle East, faced challenges. Royalty rate expansion was below average due to Revo-related noise.
