What the Analysts think about HST

Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Host Hotels & Resorts stock.

Bulls say / Bears say

Strong revenue growth: Comparable hotel RevPAR increased 7.0% in Q1 2025 and 3.0% in Q2, led by higher average room rates and robust leisure demand, especially in markets like New York and Maui (Host GW Q1; Host GW Q2).
After better-than-expected first-half results, management raised full-year 2025 guidance: The midpoint for net income was lifted by $70 million to $601–631 million, and EPS guidance was raised by $0.10 to $0.85–0.90, reflecting strong business performance (Host GW Guidance).
Host's financial position is strong: As of June 30, 2025, the company had about $2.2 billion in liquidity, a weighted average debt maturity of 5.4 years, 80% of debt at fixed rates, and extended the maturity profile through a $500 million, 5.7% senior note issue (SEC Filing).
Operating and EBITDA margins are under pressure: Host Hotels' Q1 2025 GAAP operating profit margin dropped by 190 basis points year-over-year to 17.9%. Full-year 2025 guidance also points to a decline in operating profit margins by 170–210 basis points compared to 2024, as rising labor costs and lower business interruption insurance proceeds weigh on profitability (Host GW).
Host lowered its full-year 2025 guidance for comparable hotel Total RevPAR growth to 0.7–2.7% (previously 1.0–3.0%), citing weaker group lead volume, which signals softer demand in the higher-margin group business segment (Investor Slide).
Profitability is weakening: Net income for Q1 2025 fell 7.7% year-over-year to $251 million, and diluted EPS fell 7.9% to $0.35. Q2 2025 also saw EPS decrease to $0.32 from $0.34 a year earlier, reflecting increased interest and operating costs (Host GW; Nasdaq).
