Verdict: Hit
Hilton meldete am 28. Juli 2026 ein bereinigtes (Non-GAAP) EPS von 2,29 USD, das den Zacks-Konsens von 2,28 USD knapp übertraf (+0,01 USD, ca. 0,9 % Überraschung). Der Beat war deutlich kleiner als die historische Durchschnittsüberraschung von 4,6 %, aber die Vorhersage (Übertreffen des Konsenses) trat ein. Der Umsatz lag mit 3,34 Mrd. USD im Rahmen der Erwartungen (+6,5 % YoY). RevPAR stieg um 3,9 % YoY. Die Aktie fiel dennoch um ca. 3,4 %, da der Ausblick für das Gesamtjahr (adj. EPS 8,89–9,01 USD) unter dem Analystenkonsens von 9,08 USD lag. Quellen: Hilton IR Q2-2026-Pressemitteilung (ir.hilton.com), Yahoo Finance, Investing.com.
