We plan to increase our Wyndham $64 fair value estimate by around $4 per share, due to stronger demand recovery this year, and overall brand strength (source of its narrow moat) driving higher unit growth over the long term, leaving shares slightly overvalued.
As of March 31, 2021, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts operates 797,000 rooms across 20 brands in the economy (around 61% of total properties) and midscale (32%) segments. Super 8 is the largest brand, representing around 30% of all hotels, with Days Inn (18%) and La Quinta (10%) the next two largest brands. During the past several years, the company has expanded its extended stay/lifestyle brands (3% of total properties), which appeal to travelers seeking to experience the local culture of a given location. The United States represents 61% of total rooms. The company closed its La Quinta acquisition in the second quarter of 2018, adding around 90,000 rooms at the time the deal closed.
