TripAdvisor (TRIP) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Tripadvisor is selling TheFork for $700M in cash to American Express, allowing the company to focus on its Experiences strategy and potentially increase shareholder value. The proposed transaction is expected to close before the end of 2026, subject to customary closing conditions. While TRIP's legacy hotel business continues to face challenges, its mix of assets, including Viator and TheFork, should drive growth and margin expansion. This, along with ongoing exploration of strategic alternatives and activist involvement, makes TRIP an attractive buy despite near-term pressures.
Bears say
Tripadvisor is facing several challenges that could impact its revenue and profitability in the future. These include the increasing trend of OTA advertisers shifting their budgets away from the metasearch channel, competition from Google's Hotel Ads product, and potential regulatory changes. Despite its global reach, the company has not been able to capitalize on this as shown by its stagnant revenue growth of 5-7% and low EBITDA margin of 19-22%. The company also faces risks of a potential spin/sale of Viator and TheFork and its overall profitability is below its peers in the industry.
