Goldman Sachs raises Hilton Worldwide stock price target to $285 on growth outlook

Investing.com - Goldman Sachs has increased its price target for Hilton Worldwide (NYSE:HLT) to $285.00 from $274.00 while maintaining a Neutral rating on the stock. The stock, currently trading at $275.06, is approaching its 52-week high of $279.81, though InvestingPro analysis suggests slight overvaluation at current levels.

The adjustment follows what Goldman Sachs described as a "solid EBITDA beat" by Hilton, demonstrating the company’s "strong execution and resilient business model" despite a reduction in Revenue Per Available Room (RevPAR). The company’s impressive EBITDA of $2.577 billion and robust gross profit margin of 77.09% reflect this strength.

Goldman Sachs noted that Hilton projects a RevPAR acceleration in 2026 and 2027, supported by below-trend industry supply growth and both macroeconomic and event-driven factors, including the World Cup and mid-term elections.

The investment bank acknowledged that Hilton’s outlook for acceleration in the fourth quarter "may prove to be ambitious," but emphasized that the positive trajectory around Net Unit Growth (NUG) outlook is more significant, with projections of 6.5%-7.0% for 2025 and 6-7% longer term.

Goldman Sachs attributed its price target increase to "broadly higher estimates" for Hilton Worldwide’s performance.
