Hyatt's Playa Hotels Acquisition Is A Reasonable Deal For Both Parties

Summary On Monday, Hyatt Hotels announced a deal to acquire the remainder of Playa Hotels stock that it didn't already own. I believe this is a fair deal for both companies. Playa shareholders get to exit at a record-high stock price, while Hyatt gains valuable properties and potential for additional value creation through asset recycling.

Playa Hotels & Resorts: Long-Term Outlook Encouraging

Playa Hotels & Resorts has shown encouraging RevPAR growth across its portfolio. A rising quick ratio means the company is better placed to handle a potential slowdown in revenue growth. I take a long-term bullish view of the stock. Investment Thesis: Strong growth in RevPAR as well as a rising quick ratio indicates that Playa Hotels & Resorts (PLYA) is seeing an encouraging recovery following the COVID-19 pandemic. I take a long-term bullish view on the stock. In a previous article, I made the argument that Playa Hotels & Resorts could see upside going forward as a result of a recovery in RevPAR (revenue per available room) and ADR (the average daily rate) across the company's major geographies. Moreover, with property prices rising in the Dominican Republic, I also made the argument that rising prices would provide a buffer against lower than expected resort bookings. With that being said, inflationary concerns and bearish market sentiment has coincided with a significant drop in the stock: investing.com The purpose of this article is to analyse whether the recent sell-off was overdone and if Playa Hotels & Resorts could reasonably see upside from here. Portfolio Performance Overall, Playa Hotels & Resorts saw a strong rebound in ADR and RevPAR from 2020 through to last year. To get a better overview of revenue performance across the different geographies in the company's portfolio, I decided to collate quarterly data on ADR and RevPAR for all quarters in 2020 and 2021. The ADR and RevPAR figures were then averaged by year in order to determine performance across each geography in the portfolio. The calculations were performed using SQL, and these can be found along with the original quarterly figures here. 2020 Portfolio ADR RevPAR RevPAR (% by portfolio) Jamaica 315.39 128.55 31.10% Yucatan Peninsula 292.27 120.73 29.21% Pacific Coast 395.25 102.31 24.75% Dominican Republic 239.74 61.79 14.95% Source: Calculations made by author. 2021 Portfolio ADR RevPAR RevPAR (% by portfolio) Yucatan Peninsula 318.49 168.23 29.48% Pacific Coast 344.01 163.14 28.58% Jamaica 300.86 129.1 22.62% Dominican Republic 268.1 110.26 19.32% Source: Calculations made by author. When looking at average RevPAR by year - we can see that the Yucatan Peninsula has become the largest revenue generator in the company's portfolio, and this accounted for just under 30% of overall revenue in 2021. However, what is also noteworthy is that the Jamaica region saw average RevPAR for 2020 and 2021 at virtually identical levels and Jamaica was the top revenue earner for the company in 2020. With that being said, the Yucatan Peninsula and Dominican Republic saw growth in both RevPAR and ADR, while the Pacific Coast and Jamaica saw a drop in ADR despite RevPAR growing by 59% for the former and remaining flat for the latter. 2022 Portfolio ADR RevPAR RevPAR (% by portfolio) Yucatan Peninsula 429.45 308.75 27.02% Pacific Coast 454.61 302.89 26.50% Jamaica 415.11 280.54 24.55% Dominican Republic 324.26 250.68 21.93% Source: Calculations made by author. While only the first quarter of data for 2022 is available, we seem to be seeing a continuation of this trend so far, with Yucatan Peninsula and the Pacific Coast remaining the top two by revenue along with higher ADR across these portfolios. What is particularly noteworthy is that both the Yucatan Peninsula and the Dominican Republic were able to increase average price charged per day to customers while also increasing revenue. This might suggest that customers who book across these portfolios are less price sensitive and even if inflation does somewhat lower the recovery for travel demand this summer - I take the view that revenue across these geographies could increase further in spite of rising prices. Looking Forward The rebound in revenue to date has been encouraging. Going forward - it is unclear to what extent inflation can be expected to dampen demand from here. In spite of the rebound in revenue growth we saw last year, the stock could see some downside if growth this year comes lower than expected due to inflationary concerns.
