PARSIPPANY, N.J., Oct. 21, 2026

Company Raises Full-Year 2026 RevPAR, Adjusted EBITDA and EPS Outlook
Grows System Size by 4% and U.S. RevPAR by 6%

PARSIPPANY, N.J., Oct. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Wyndham Hotels & Resorts (NYSE: WH) today announced results for the three months ended September 30, 2026. Highlights include:

Global RevPAR grew 2% compared to third quarter 2025 in constant currency, a 4% improvement sequentially.
U.S. RevPAR grew 6% year-over-year, a 4% improvement sequentially.
System-wide rooms grew 4% year-over-year, excluding insolvent Revo Hospitality Group ("Revo") rooms.
Development pipeline grew 4% year-over-year, excluding Revo, to a record of approximately 264,000 rooms, carrying a FeePAR premium of approximately 30% to existing domestic and international systems.
Net income was $99 million and diluted EPS was $1.33.
Adjusted EBITDA was $207 million and adjusted diluted EPS was $1.43.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $93 million and free cash flow was $100 million.
Returned $123 million to shareholders through $91 million of share repurchases, a 30% increase year-over-year, and quarterly cash dividends of $0.43 per share.

"Our third quarter results demonstrate our team's continued execution and the strength of Wyndham's asset-light, highly cash-generative business model," said Geoff Ballotti, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We delivered broad-based U.S. RevPAR growth outperforming our initial expectations, as well as market share gains. Additionally, we grew our system and development pipeline each by 4% and increased royalties and franchise fees by 6%, as we continued to invest in industry-leading technology, loyalty and distribution initiatives that support franchisee profitability and customer satisfaction. Our strong balance sheet and cash flow generation capabilities provide significant opportunities to continue enhancing returns to our shareholders over both the short and long-term, as evidenced by our Board of Directors' approval of a $400 million increase in our share repurchase authorization."

Operating Results Highlights

The comparability of the Company's third quarter results is impacted by marketing fund variability. In the third quarter of 2026, marketing fund revenues exceeded expenses by $1 million, while revenues exceeded expenses by $18 million in the third quarter of last year.

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.

	Net revenues	Net income(a)	Adjusted net income(a)	Adjusted EBITDA	Reported diluted EPS(a)	Adjusted diluted EPS(a)
2025 reported	$ 382	$ 105	$ 112	$ 213	$ 1.36	$ 1.46

2026 reported	410	99	107	207	1.33	1.43
Change	28	(6)	(5)	(6)	(0.03)	(0.03)
Less: Marketing fund variability	n/a	(13)	(13)	(17)	(0.16)	(0.16)
Comparable basis growth	$ 28	$ 7	$ 8	$ 11	$ 0.13	$ 0.13


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.

Net revenues increased 7% to $410 million compared to $382 million in the third quarter of 2025, reflecting RevPAR and global net rooms growth, higher franchise fees, increased ancillary revenues and revenues from the Company's two owned hotels.
Net income decreased 6% to $99 million compared to $105 million in the third quarter of 2025, primarily reflecting lower adjusted EBITDA. On a comparable basis, adjusted net income increased approximately 7% year-over-year primarily reflecting comparable basis adjusted EBITDA growth.
Adjusted EBITDA decreased 3% to $207 million compared to $213 million in the third quarter of 2025. On a comparable basis, adjusted EBITDA increased 5% primarily reflecting higher revenues, partially offset by the timing of variable costs and the lapping of one-time variable cost reductions made during the third quarter of 2025.
Diluted EPS decreased 2% to $1.33 compared to $1.36 in the third quarter of 2025, which reflects lower net income, partially offset with share repurchase activity.
Adjusted diluted EPS decreased 2% to $1.43 compared to $1.46 in the third quarter of 2025. On a comparable basis, adjusted diluted EPS increased approximately 9% year-over-year primarily reflecting a comparable basis increase in adjusted EBITDA and the benefit of share repurchase activity.

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.

RevPAR

	Third Quarter 2026	YOY Constant Currency % Change
United States	$ 58.35	6 %
International	41.79	(3 %)
Global	$ 51.13	2 %

In the U.S., RevPAR improved 6% year-over-year and 4% sequentially, reflecting improved occupancy and ADR levels. Performance was broad-based across nearly all regions, highlighting the sustained strength across the Midwest and continued year-over-year and sequential growth in Texas, Florida and California.

Internationally, constant currency RevPAR declined 3% year-over-year, yet improved 4% sequentially, including year-over-year growth of 7% in Canada reflecting continued pricing and demand strength, while 5% growth in Southeast Asia and the Pacific Rim was driven by favorable ADR trends. Latin America increased 2% year-over-year and 9% sequentially primarily driven by Mexico, with favorable ADR trends and a resilient urban portfolio. EMEA increased 2% year-over-year driven by strong performance in Turkey, India and Spain and 8% sequentially reflecting recovery in Germany and stabilization across the Middle East. Growth in these regions was offset by China, where RevPAR declined 10% year-over-year as softer travel demand, particularly in Tier 2 cities, continued to pressure performance.

System Size and Development

	Rooms
	September 30, 2026	September 30, 2025	% Change
United States	500,000	503,400	(1 %)
International	377,400	352,000	7 %
Global	877,400	855,400	3 %
Global ex. Revo	864,400	833,200	4 %

The Company's global system, excluding Revo, grew 4%. The Company's U.S. system grew 2% in the higher RevPAR midscale and above segments. International growth of 11% year-over-year, excluding Revo, included 12% direct-franchised growth in the Company's Asia Pacific region and 13% growth in the Company's higher RevPAR EMEA and Latin America regions.

As of September 30, 2026, the Company's global development pipeline, excluding Revo, increased 4% vs. prior-year to a record-high of approximately 264,000 rooms and over 2,200 hotels. Key highlights of the Company's pipeline include:

2% growth in the U.S. and 5% growth internationally, excluding Revo
Approximately 69% is in the midscale and above segments
Approximately 17% is in the extended stay segment
Approximately 42% is in the U.S.
Approximately 78% is new construction and approximately 35% of these projects have broken ground; rooms under construction grew 4% year-over-year
Approximately 30% FeePAR premium compared to existing domestic and international systems

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

The Company generated $93 million of net cash provided by operating activities and $100 million of free cash flow in the third quarter 2026. The Company ended the quarter with a cash balance of $71 million and $988 million in total liquidity.

The Company's net debt leverage ratio at September 30, 2026 was 3.6 times, near the midpoint of the Company's 3-to-4 times stated target range and in-line with expectations.

Share Repurchases and Dividends

During the third quarter, the Company repurchased approximately 1.2 million shares of its common stock for $91 million, a 30% increase year-over-year, at an average price of $73.39 per share, which represented a 5% discount to our 52-week average price. Year-to-date through September 30, the Company repurchased approximately 2.5 million shares of its common stock for $196 million. The Company's Board of Directors recently increased the Company's share repurchase authorization by $400 million.

The Company paid common stock dividends of $32 million, or $0.43 per share, during the third quarter 2026.

Outlook

The Company is updating its full-year outlook as follows:

	Updated Outlook	Prior Outlook
Year-over-year rooms growth (a)	~4%	4.0% - 4.5%
Year-over-year global RevPAR growth (b)	0.5% - 1.0%	0.0% - 1.0%
Net revenues	$1.48 - $1.50 billion	$1.48 - $1.50 billion
Adjusted EBITDA (c)	$740 - $745 million	$735 - $745 million
Adjusted net income	$363 - $369 million	$355 - $365 million
Adjusted diluted EPS	$4.84 - $4.92	$4.71 - $4.83
Free cash flow conversion rate	55% - 60%	55% - 60%


(a)	Excludes any room termination impact associated with Revo's ongoing insolvency.
(b)	Represents constant currency basis; on a reported basis, which includes foreign currency impacts, would be 0.5% - 1.0%. The Company's updated outlook assumes fourth quarter domestic RevPAR is roughly consistent with third quarter performance.
(c)	Includes the effects of the deferral of royalties and franchise fees from Revo and the inclusion of previously disclosed one-time variable cost reductions made in 2025; excluding which comparable basis growth rate would be approximately 6% - 7%.

The Company expects marketing fund revenues to roughly equal expenses during full-year 2026 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. These non-GAAP measures differ from reported GAAP results and are intended to illustrate what management believes are relevant period-over-period comparisons and are helpful to investors as an additional tool for further understanding and assessing the Company's ongoing operating performance. 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. Exclusion of items in the Company's non-GAAP presentation should not be considered an inference that these items are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring. Full reconciliations of GAAP results to the comparable non-GAAP measures for the reported periods appear in the financial tables section of this press release.

NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS
(In millions)

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. The Company believes that adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS financial measures provide useful information to investors about the Company and its financial condition and results of operations because these measures are used by its management team to evaluate its 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 its industry. These measures also assist the Company's investors in evaluating its 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 the Company's view do not necessarily reflect ongoing performance. The Company also internally uses these measures to assess its 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.

Free cash flow conversion rate		~55 - 60%

Year-over-Year Growth
Global RevPAR (e)		0.5% – 1.0%
Number of rooms (f)		~4%


(a)	Includes the effects of the deferral of royalties and franchise fees from Revo and the inclusion of previously disclosed one-time variable cost reductions made in 2025; excluding which comparable basis growth rates would be approximately 6% - 7%.
(b)	Excludes amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets of approximately $25 million.
(c)	Outlook assumes an effective tax rate of approximately 25%.
(d)	Excludes the impact of any share repurchases after September 30, 2026.
(e)	Represents constant currency basis; on a reported basis, which includes foreign currency impacts, would be 0.5% - 1.0%. The Company's updated outlook assumes fourth quarter domestic RevPAR is roughly consistent with third quarter performance.
(f)	Excludes any room termination impact associated with Revo's ongoing insolvency.

To assist with modeling, each 1% change in RevPAR equates to an approximate $10 million impact to net revenues and $4 million to adjusted EBITDA. If a significant pullback in demand were to materialize beyond the Company's current assumptions, actual results could fall below these estimates.

In determining adjusted EBITDA, interest expense, net, adjusted income before income taxes, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS and free cash flow conversion rate, the Company excludes certain items which are otherwise included in determining the comparable GAAP financial measures. The Company is providing these measures on a non-GAAP basis only because, without unreasonable efforts, it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the occurrence or amount of all 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.

Table 9
WYNDHAM HOTELS & RESORTS
DEFINITIONS

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS: Represents net income and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") excluding acquisition-related amortization, impairment and other-related charges (including Revo-related charges), significant accelerated depreciation, restructuring and other-related charges, contract termination costs, separation-related items, transaction-related items (acquisition-, disposition-, or debt-related), (gain)/loss on asset sales, foreign currency impacts of highly inflationary countries and special tax items. The Company calculates the income tax effect of the adjustments using an estimated effective tax rate applicable to each adjustment.

Adjusted EBITDA: Represents net income excluding net interest expense, depreciation and amortization, early extinguishment of debt charges, impairment and other-related charges (including Revo-related charges), restructuring and other-related charges, contract termination costs, separation-related items, transaction-related items (acquisition-, disposition-, or debt-related), (gain)/loss on asset sales, foreign currency impacts of highly inflationary countries, stock-based compensation expense, income taxes and development advance notes amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure that is not recognized under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or other measures of financial performance or liquidity derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, the Company's definition of adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow: Represents free cash flow excluding payments related to separation-related items.

Ancillary Revenues: Represents the summation of the license and other fees line item and other revenues line item per the income statement.

Average Daily Rate (ADR): Represents the average rate charged for renting a Room for one day.

Average Occupancy Rate: Represents the percentage of available Rooms occupied during the period.

Comparable Basis: Represents a comparison eliminating Marketing Fund Variability.

Constant Currency: Represents a comparison eliminating the effects of foreign exchange rate fluctuations between periods (foreign currency translation) and the impact caused by any foreign exchange related activities (i.e., hedges, balance sheet remeasurements and/or adjustments).

FeePAR: Represents annual royalties per franchised Room and is calculated by dividing total annual royalty revenue of the Company's franchised hotels by the number of franchised Rooms in its system size.

Free Cash Flow: Reflects net cash provided by operating activities excluding development advances, less capital expenditures. The Company believes free cash flow to be a useful operating performance measure to it and investors. This measure helps the Company and investors evaluate its ability to generate cash beyond what is needed to fund capital expenditures, debt service and other obligations. Notwithstanding cash on hand and incremental borrowing capacity, free cash flow reflects the Company's ability to grow its business through investments and acquisitions, as well as its ability to return cash to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases or even to delever. Free cash flow is not a representation of how the Company will use excess cash. A limitation of using free cash flow versus the GAAP measure of net cash provided by operating activities as a means for evaluating Wyndham Hotels is that free cash flow does not represent the total cash movement for the period as detailed in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.

Free Cash Flow Conversion Rate: Represents the percentage of adjusted EBITDA that is converted to free cash flow and provides insights into how efficiently the Company is able to turn profits into cash available for use, such as for investments (including development advance notes), debt reduction, dividends or share repurchases.

Marketing Fund Variability: Relates to the quarterly timing variances from the Company's marketing funds. The Company's franchise agreements require the payment of marketing and reservation fees, and in accordance with these franchise agreements, the Company is generally contractually obligated to expend such fees for the benefit of each of its brands over time. Marketing and reservation fees earned are generally highest during the summer season when the franchised hotels have the highest occupancy and daily rates, while marketing and reservation expenses are generally highest during the first half of the year in an effort to drive higher occupancy in the summer months. Accordingly, the seasonality of the marketing and reservation revenues and expenses results in adjusted EBITDA variability during the quarters throughout the year but are designed such that, in the long-term, the Company's marketing funds are expected to break even.

Net Debt Leverage Ratio: Calculated by dividing total debt less cash and cash equivalents by trailing twelve months adjusted EBITDA.

RevPAR: Represents revenue per available franchised or managed/owned Room and is calculated by multiplying average occupancy rate by ADR.

Rooms: Represents the number of rooms at the end of the period which are (i) either under franchise and/or management agreements, excluding all rooms associated with the Company's Super 8 master licensee in China, (ii) Company-owned, and (iii) properties under affiliation agreements for which the Company receives a fee for reservation and/or other services provided.

Royalty Rate: Represents the average royalty rate earned on the Company's franchised Rooms and is calculated by dividing total royalties, excluding the impact of amortization of development advance notes, by total room revenues.
