The main question: the share price moved +60.9% in a year while yearly earnings per share moved +11.1%. The difference came from the market paying a higher multiple. ## What is the Host Hotels & Resorts share price today? Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc.'s share price was $25.78 at the close on 3 November 2026. It has been rising for 40 weeks. That is 17.1% above its average price over the last 200 trading days. In the last 52 weeks it traded between $17 and $26, and at that close it was at the high of that range. Over the past 13 weeks it has done better than the S&P 500, and it has stayed ahead for 1 week in a row. Over the last 10 years the share price moved +54% while the S&P 500 moved +255%, so it is behind the index over that whole period. The chart above shows the 13-week comparison for every week. This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row. ## What dividend does Host Hotels & Resorts pay? Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc. paid $0.80 per share over the last four reported quarters. The most recent declaration was $0.20 for Jun 2026. At today's price of $25.78 that is a yield of 3.10%, based on dividends already paid, not a forecast. ## Which stock lists is Host Hotels & Resorts on? Host Hotels & Resorts is on one of our US lists: S&P 500 companies. [S&P 500 companies](https://www.sectoralpha.in/sp-500-stocks)

## Is Host Hotels & Resorts profitable? Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc. earned $237 M of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, +7.2% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 4th quarter in a row of profit growth. Full-year FY25 profit was $765 M. That is 14.4% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $221 M. For the full year, FY25 profit was $765 M (+9.8% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed +3.6% on a year earlier and the margin moved +1.1 percentage points. Sales did the work, and the margin was about flat. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed +56.9% and revenue +5.0%. Profit is growing faster than sales: fixed costs are spread over more sales, so each extra dollar of revenue adds more to profit. ## How much revenue does Host Hotels & Resorts make, and is it growing? Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc. reported $1.6 B of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +3.6% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 12th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 4 years it has grown 20.4% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $6.1 B. The last four reported quarters add to $6.2 B. FY25 revenue was $6.1 B, +7.7% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +5.0% on average, against 20.4% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing slower than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +5.0%, against +6.7% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising); profit over the last 12 months grew +55.8%, against +17.0% a year (accelerating). ## How much of every $100 of sales does Host Hotels & Resorts keep? Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc.'s operating margin was 18.2% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 1.1 percentage points higher than the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 years it has been between −4.6% and 15.5%. The latest quarter is above every full year in that period. Why: the operating margin move is clear, but the cost details behind it are not in our data, so we show the move without guessing the reason. ## Is Host Hotels & Resorts' profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 202% of Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc.'s reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY25 it brought in $1.5 B of operating cash against $765 M of profit. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why: the cash figure is clear, but the day counts behind it are not in our data, so we show it without guessing the reason. What to look at next: no single use of cash stands out. The next section checks both the cash tied up in daily operations and the spending on assets. ## Where does Host Hotels & Resorts' cash go? Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc. does not report the customer, stock and supplier day counts a cash cycle needs, so this section looks at its spending on assets instead. Nothing is estimated in place of the missing day counts, so no cash-cycle chart is drawn. In short: neither the daily cycle nor new spending is soaking up the cash, so the picture is fairly clean. ## What is Host Hotels & Resorts' P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc.'s P/E is 17.3×, in the middle of its own history: higher than 61% of past readings. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 16.9×, over 4.6 years of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved +11.1% while the price moved +60.9%. The price did better than earnings, which pushed the multiple up within its own range. Where the price move came from: over 3 years the price moved +15.4% a year; about +12.4% a year came from earnings growth and about +3.0 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying more). The split is approximate (price return minus earnings growth). It shows how much of the move came from the market paying a different multiple. In short: the multiple is about average against its own past, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the Host Hotels & Resorts business getting better or worse? Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc.'s business is giving mixed signals. Growth has been steadily positive, but ROCE at 7.2% is below the 15% level needed to call it steady growth. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures. Why it matters: when the lines disagree, each line above matters more than any single label. ## How much does Host Hotels & Resorts earn on its capital? Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc. earned a ROE of 11% in FY25. That is up from a low of 0% in FY21. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 2.0 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a 12.5% net margin and 0.47× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a 12.5% net margin × 0.47× asset turnover × 1.94× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 11.4% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing is a big part of it. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 6.9% − 8.9% = −2.0 percentage points. The 8.9% is an estimate of this company's own cost of capital. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. Negative: growth at these returns loses value until returns improve. ## Does Host Hotels & Resorts have too much debt? Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc. has total debt of $5.6 B against shareholder equity of $6.6 B as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.85× its equity. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.83 in FY21 to 0.84 in FY25. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page. ## What is the Host Hotels & Resorts shareholding pattern? 6.2% of Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc.'s tradable shares are in short positions, which are bets that the price will fall, so some traders are betting against it. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 4.9 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead. It is a single reading at one point in time; we do not have its history. Why it is at this level: the figure does not say who holds the short positions or why, so we show the level without guessing the story. ## How far is Host Hotels & Resorts from balance-sheet trouble? For Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc., the Z-score is not available, so we say so rather than guess one. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. The debt, cash-flow and return sections show the balance-sheet figures we do have, each with its own date. ## How does Host Hotels & Resorts rank in its industry? 66.9 out of 100, rank 1 of 13 in REIT - Hotel & Motel, with 80% of the evidence available. Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc. scores 66.9 out of 100 against the 13 companies it is compared with in REIT - Hotel & Motel, ranking 1. Earnings are strong; relative strength in its sector is -0.4% and the one-year return is 44.5%. The four parts add up to the total exactly: 25.1 + 20.8 + 14.3 + 6.7 = 66.9. This is the same number shown on the industry page; it is worked out once for the whole group and read here. What would change it: The score would fall if ROA turns down or gross NPA rises while the share price lags its sector. ## Which companies is Host Hotels & Resorts compared with?

Missing figures are not scored as bad. They lower the confidence and pull the final score toward the middle. Relative strength counts only when the company has a reading for this week; with no reading, that factor is left out and its 20 points are shared across the other three in proportion. Financial companies use P/BV÷ROE and asset quality; PEG, industrial OPM and ROCE are excluded. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led S&P 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step path the industry is placed on (basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep), read from how many weeks running it has led S&P 500 and whether that lead is growing or shrinking. It describes where the share price stands, not the direction of earnings, and it is not a recommendation; it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read. The figures in this ranking come from the industry comparison: results through the Jun 2026 quarter, and the P/E at that quarter's end. The sections above use the latest weekly price, so a P/E or return there can differ a little from the one here. The stage words in this ranking (such as losing its lead or breaking out) describe the lead over the index, not the price phase in the price section.
