Airbnb Facing Greater Impact From US Headwinds Than Competitors, RBC Says
May 26, 2025 12:28 AM

12:13 PM EDT, 05/02/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Airbnb ( ABNB ) is facing a greater impact from US headwinds than its competitors due to its higher exposure and lower growth rate, RBC Capital Markets said in a Friday note.

The company's business seems to lack enough diversification to offset the US headwinds, and its comparable nights growth could be marked at half of its competitor's growth rates, RBC analysts said.

The analysts said that they are not confident that new products, which are coming out with Airbnb's ( ABNB ) May 13 release, can drive the necessary earnings upside to make up for the smaller growth in nights. Revamped experiences are likely to be the focus, but they said that promoted listings remain the biggest long-term potential opportunity.

On the plus side, the company's supply growth is back to a healthier 8% level and expansion markets grew two times the core growth, with Brazil being the biggest contributor, the analysts said.

RBC maintained the company's stock rating at sector perform and reduced the price target to $140 from $160.

Price: 123.89, Change: -0.12, Percent Change: -0.10
