Tripadvisor's third-quarter revenue decreased 11%, and adjusted EBITDA was down 34% as marketing and technology deleveraged. Current CEO Matt Goldberg is to depart in February, and CFO Michael Noonan has resigned. Shares were down about 20% during Nov. 5 trading.
Penetration levels are low and growing in the experience markets. Tripadvisor is well positioned to benefit over the long term, given its critical-mass revenue share.
Metasearch has lower barriers than online travel agencies, and is facing competition from agentic artificial intelligence, which could meaningfully affect the firm’s growth outlook.
