Host Hotels launches $600 million equity sale program

Host Hotels & Resorts signed a new equity sales arrangement on November 12, 2026, allowing up to $600 million of common shares to be offered over time. The company can use the proceeds for acquisitions and other corporate needs, while the new arrangement replaces an earlier program with the same remaining capacity.

The program gives Host Hotels access to equity financing but could increase the share count and dilute existing holders if shares are sold. The company is not obligated to issue shares, and participating agents are not obligated to purchase or sell them.
