Its largely franchised system drives recurring royalty revenue, with key metrics being the royalty rate, system room count, and RevPAR. CHH's recent results show signs of improvement, with U.S. RevPAR and system growth both at their strongest levels in several quarters. CHH trades for around 15x EPS. With headwinds abating, this may be an attractive entry point for investors. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

Choice Hotels: Strong FY2024 Earnings, But I Don't Buy The Guidance
Summary CHH had a strong 2024, but 2025 looks shaky due to a weak CAD dollar and tariff threats impacting Canadian travel to the U.S. Recent earnings were solid, with net income up 16% and EPS up 22%, but guidance for 2025 seems overly optimistic. The Canadian travel decline could reduce CHH's revenue, leading to a projected 0.5% revenue decline in 2025. I rate CHH a Hold with a $135 price target, given the risks and limited growth prospects for 2025, but noting a solid pipeline for the future.
