Expedia Group Q3 earnings: net income reaches $1.03B
B2B revenue increased 23% to $1.708 billion, while air revenue decreased 7% in the third quarter.
Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.

10-Q
Expedia Group, Inc. (EXPE) reported third-quarter 2026 revenue of $4.938 billion, up from $4.412 billion a year earlier, and net income attributable to Expedia Group of $1.030 billion, versus $959 million. Diluted EPS was $8.42, compared with $7.33, while gross bookings reached $34.008 billion, up 11% from $30.727 billion. For the first nine months of 2026, revenue was $12.679 billion and net income attributable to Expedia Group was $1.902 billion, compared with $11.186 billion and $1.089 billion.
Third-quarter B2B revenue increased 23% to $1.708 billion, while air revenue decreased 7% to $93 million. Expedia completed three acquisitions with a total purchase price of $676 million: two travel-related companies in B2B and an AI trip-planning company in B2C. It repurchased 6.2 million shares for $1.5 billion through open-market transactions during the nine months ended September 30, 2026; $5.1 billion remained authorized under its repurchase programs as of that date. As proposed, IRS transfer-pricing adjustments would result in federal income tax of $287–$313 million for 2011–2013, $488–$531 million for 2014–2016 and $213–$380 million for 2017–2018, subject to interest; Expedia said it disagrees and will continue to defend its position through administrative procedures.

How this balance works
Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.
It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.
Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

Gross bookings financial
"Gross bookings generally represent the total retail value of transactions booked"
Gross bookings is the total dollar value of transactions a company records from sales, reservations, or orders before subtracting cancellations, refunds, taxes, or fees. Think of it as the full amount put into a shopping cart at checkout rather than the final receipt; it shows raw customer demand and sales momentum but does not equal actual revenue or profit, so investors use it to gauge growth and market interest while also watching conversion to net revenue.
Revenue margin financial
"Revenue margin is defined as revenue as a percentage of gross bookings."
Deferred merchant bookings financial
"We classify cash payments received in advance of our performance obligations as deferred merchant bookings."
cash flow hedges financial
"These forward contracts are designated as cash flow hedges."
A cash flow hedge is an accounting label companies use when they enter financial contracts—like currency or interest-rate agreements—to protect expected future cash payments or receipts from unpredictable moves. For investors, it signals that the company is trying to smooth out future cash variability (think of locking in a price to avoid surprises), which can reduce reported profit swings but also means the company has exposure to derivative instruments and their associated risks.
Adjusted EBITDA financial
"Our primary operating metric is Adjusted EBITDA."
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2026
(Unaudited)
Note 1 – Basis of Presentation
These accompanying financial statements present Expedia Group, Inc.’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows on a consolidated basis. We refer to Expedia Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries collectively as “Expedia Group,” the “Company,” “us,” “we” and “our” in these consolidated financial statements. The unaudited consolidated financial statements include Expedia Group, Inc., our wholly-owned subsidiaries, and entities we control, or in which we have a variable interest and are the primary beneficiary of expected cash profits or losses. We record our investments in entities that we do not control, but over which we have the ability to exercise significant influence, using the equity method or at fair value. We have eliminated significant intercompany transactions and accounts.
Accounting Estimates
We use estimates and assumptions in the preparation of our interim unaudited consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. Our estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of our interim unaudited consolidated financial statements. These estimates and assumptions also affect the reported amount of net income or loss during any period. Our actual financial results could differ significantly from these estimates. The significant estimates underlying our interim unaudited consolidated financial statements include revenue recognition; recoverability of current and long-lived assets, intangible assets and goodwill; income and transactional taxes, such as potential settlements related to occupancy and excise taxes; loss contingencies; deferred loyalty rewards; stock-based compensation; and accounting for derivative instruments.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Recent Accounting Policies Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued new guidance expanding disclosure requirements related to certain income statement expenses. The guidance requires tabular footnote disclosure of certain operating expenses disaggregated into categories, such as employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization, included within each interim and annual income statement’s expense caption, as applicable. The effective date is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of adopting this new guidance on our consolidated financial statement disclosures.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued)
In September 2025, the FASB issued new guidance related to accounting for internal-use software, which updates the cost capitalization threshold for internal-use software development costs by removing all references to software project development stages and providing new guidance on how to evaluate whether the probable-to-complete recognition threshold has been met. The effective date is for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early application is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period and the transition method may be prospective, modified, or retrospective. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of adopting this new guidance on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
Significant Accounting Policies
Below are the significant accounting policies with interim disclosure requirements as well as new accounting policies. For a comprehensive description of our accounting policies, refer to our 2025 Form 10-K.
Revenue
At December 31, 2025, $1.1 billion of deferred loyalty rewards related to internally administered loyalty programs was reported within deferred merchant bookings, $930 million of which was recognized within revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2026. At September 30, 2026, the related balance was $1.1 billion.
Deferred Revenue. At December 31, 2025, $163 million was recorded as deferred revenue, $111 million of which was recognized as revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2026. At September 30, 2026, the related balance was $166 million.
Practical Expedients and Exemptions. We have used the portfolio approach to account for our loyalty points as the rewards programs share similar characteristics within each program in relation to the value provided to the traveler and their breakage patterns. Using this portfolio approach is not expected to differ materially from applying the guidance to individual contracts. However, we will continue to assess and refine, if necessary, how a portfolio within each rewards program is defined.
We do not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed.

Accounts Receivable and Allowances
Accounts receivable are generally due within thirty days and are recorded net of an allowance for expected uncollectible amounts. We consider accounts outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms as past due. The risk characteristics we generally review when analyzing our accounts receivable pools primarily include the type of receivable (for example, credit

Cash Flow Hedges. In the first quarter of 2026, we initiated a foreign exchange cash flow hedging program to minimize the effects of foreign currency fluctuations on future revenue. We generally hedge a portion of our forecasted foreign currency exposures associated with revenue using forward contracts with maturities up to 18 months. These forward contracts are designated as cash flow hedges.
The gain or loss on derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges of forecasted foreign currency revenue is initially reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) and reclassified into revenue in our consolidated statements of operations in the same period the forecasted transaction effects earnings. We do not exclude any components in the assessment of hedge effectiveness for forward contracts. We classify cash flows related to our cash flow hedges as operating activities in our consolidated statement of cash flows.
In the event that the likelihood of occurrence of the underlying forecasted transactions is determined to be probable not to occur, the gains or losses on the related cash flow hedges are reclassified from AOCI to other, net in the consolidated statements of operations in the period it is determined the forecasted transactions are probable not to occur.

We hold term deposit investments with financial institutions. Term deposits with original maturities of less than three months are classified as cash equivalents. Those with remaining maturities of less than one year are classified within short-term investments and those with remaining maturities of greater than one year are classified within long-term investments and other assets.
As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, our cash and cash equivalents consisted primarily of term deposits, certificates of deposits, money market funds and commercial paper with maturities of three months or less and bank account balances.
We primarily invest in investment grade corporate debt securities, U.S. treasury securities, and asset-backed securities, most of which are classified as available-for-sale. As of September 30, 2026, we had $527 million of short-term and $558 million of long-term investments classified as available-for-sale, which generally mature within five years . As of December 31, 2025, we had $320 million in short-term and $280 million of long-term available-for-sale investments. The amortized cost basis of the investments approximated their fair value with gross unrealized losses of approximately $7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and gross unrealized gains of less than $1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. We review our available-for-sale securities on a regular basis for impairment. During both the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, we did not recognize an allowance for credit-related losses on any of our investments.
As of December 31, 2025, our equity investment represents our investment in Global Business Travel Group, Inc. (“GBTG”), a publicly traded company that was included in long-term investments and other assets in our consolidated balance sheet. On September 29, 2026, Long Lake Management completed its acquisition of GBTG for $9.50 per share in a take-private transaction. As of September 30, 2026, $711 million was included within prepaid and other current assets on our consolidated balance sheet as we received the cash related to the sale in October 2026. During the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, we recognized gains (losses) of approximately $134 million and $(90 ) million within other, net in our consolidated

statements of operations related to the fair value changes of this investment. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we also recognized gains of approximately $2 million related to an equity investment sold during 2025.
We use foreign currency forward contracts to economically hedge certain merchant revenue exposures once booked, foreign denominated liabilities related to certain of our loyalty programs and our other foreign denominated balance sheet exposures, which are not designated as cash flow hedges. In the first quarter of 2026, we initiated a foreign exchange cash flow hedging program to minimize the effects of foreign currency fluctuations on a sub-set of future revenue. As of September 30, 2026, forward contracts hedging our balance sheet, certain booked revenue and future revenue had a total net notional value of $7.3 billion, of which $411 million was designated as cash flow hedges. We had a net forward liability of $17 million ($66 million gross forward liability) as of September 30, 2026 and $13 million ($31 million gross forward liability) as of December 31, 2025 recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities for these derivatives. The carrying value of the derivatives reflect the impact of a master netting agreement, which allows us to net settle assets and liabilities arising from different transactions with the same counterparty. For derivatives not designated as cash flow hedges, we recorded $(4 ) million and $(56 ) million in net gains (losses) from foreign currency forward contracts in other, net during the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, as well as $(199 ) million and $144 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025. As of September 30, 2026, the net accumulated gain on our foreign currency cash flow hedges before tax effect was $23 million, which is expected to be reclassified from AOCI into revenue within the next 12 months. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, $14 million and $17 million was reclassified from AOCI to revenue for our cash flow hedges.
From March 2022 to August 2025, we maintained two fixed-to-fixed cross-currency interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of €300 million and maturity dates of February 2026 (the “2022 swaps”), which were designated as net investment hedges of Euro assets. In August 2025, the 2022 swaps were effectively closed out by entering into a swap with offsetting terms, and we de-designated the 2022 swaps and discontinued hedge accounting. Simultaneously Expedia Group entered into a new fixed-to-fixed cross-currency interest rate swap with a notional amount of €220 million and maturity date of February 2028 (the “2025 swap”). The 2025 swap was designated as a net investment hedge of Euro assets with the objective to protect the U.S. dollar value of our net investments in the Euro foreign operations due to movements in foreign currency. There was no exchange of cash at the inception of the 2025 swap. In February 2026, when the 2022 swaps matured, we settled the final exchange of the notional amounts with the contracted counterparties for both the 2022 swaps and the 2025 swap, which offset resulting in no impact to our consolidated cash balance. The fair value of the 2025 swap was a $3 million liability as of September 30, 2026 and a liability of $11 million as of December 31, 2025, recorded in other long-term liabilities. The gain related to these swaps recognized in interest expense was approximately $1
See Note 4 – Debt for information on the embedded derivative liability as of December 31, 2025 related to the convertible notes due in February 2026 measured at fair value using a lattice model based on factors such as our stock price, the principal outstanding, coupon rate, volatility, credit spread, risk-free rate and other market data considered Level 2 inputs.
Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Non-recurring Basis
Our non-financial assets, such as goodwill, intangible assets and property and equipment, are adjusted to fair value when an impairment charge is recognized or the underlying investment is sold. Such fair value measurements are based predominately on Level 3 inputs. We measure our minority investments that do not have readily determinable fair values at cost less impairment, adjusted by observable price changes with changes recorded within other, net on our consolidated statements of operations.
Minority Investments without Readily Determinable Fair Values. As of both September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the carrying values of our minority investments without readily determinable fair values totaled $256 no material gains or losses related to these recorded minority investments. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded $37 million of losses related to a minority investment, resulting from a valuation using an option pricing model that utilized judgmental inputs such as discounts for lack of marketability and

Senior and Convertible Notes
April 2026 Senior Notes Issuance. In April 2026, we issued $1 billion of registered senior unsecured notes, which bear interest at 5.5 % and are due in April 2036 (the “5.5 % Notes”). The 5.5 % Notes were issued at 99.384 % of par resulting in a discount, which is being amortized over their life. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears in April and October of each year, beginning October 15, 2026. At any time prior to January 15, 2036, we may redeem some or all of the 5.5 % Notes by paying a “make-whole” premium plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. On or after January 15, 2036, we may redeem some or all of the 5.5 % Notes at par plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. The net proceeds from the issuance of the 5.5 % Notes were approximately $986 million after deducting the discount and debt issuance costs.
Maturity of 5.0 % Notes. In February 2026, our $750 million in senior unsecured notes that bore interest at 5.0 % (the “5.0 % Notes”) matured and the balance was repaid along with applicable accrued and unpaid interest.
Maturity of Convertible Notes. For information related to our $1 billion aggregate principal amount of unsecured 0 % convertible senior notes due 2026 (the “Convertible Notes”), see Note 7 – Debt of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2025 Form 10-K. Upon issuance and subsequent balance sheet-date reassessments through September 30, 2025, the conversion option on the Convertible Notes qualified for the equity scope exception under derivative accounting guidance because the Company had the option to deliver either cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock at our election. Under such exception, the conversion option is not required to be accounted for as a separate instrument. On November 12, 2025, the Company elected to irrevocably fix the settlement method to cash settlement. Upon that election, the conversion option no longer qualified for the exception and was deemed to be an embedded derivative which required bifurcation from the debt contract. Upon bifurcation of the conversion option, we recorded an embedded derivative liability at fair value of $119 million and a corresponding debt discount of $119 million reducing the carrying value of the Convertible Notes. The debt discount was amortized over the remaining term of the Convertible Notes using the straight-line method. The fair value of the embedded derivative liability (considered a "Level 2" fair value measurement; see Note 3 – Fair Value Measurements), was $126 million as of December 31, 2025 and was included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. The unamortized debt discount and debt issuance costs were $58 million as of December 31, 2025. In February 2026, upon maturity of the Convertible Notes, we paid approximately $1.1 billion in cash to repay the principal amount and settle our payment obligations in connection with conversion elections of the holders thereof, which included a conversion premium of approximately $78 million.
We recognized the following net expense related to the conversion option on the Convertible Notes in our consolidated statement of operations:

For additional information about our other outstanding senior notes (collectively the “Senior Notes”), see Note 7 – Debt of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2025 Form 10-K.
All of our outstanding Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations issued by Expedia Group and, those outstanding as of December 31, 2025, were guaranteed by certain domestic Expedia Group subsidiaries prior to the termination of our prior credit facility in March 2026, as discussed below. These subsidiaries were automatically released from their guarantees upon Expedia Group’s entry into the new revolving credit facility in accordance with the terms of the applicable indentures governing the Senior Notes. The Senior Notes rank equally in right of payment with all of the existing and any future unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of Expedia Group. In addition, the Senior Notes include covenants that limit our ability to (i) create certain liens, (ii) enter into sale/leaseback transactions and (iii) merge or consolidate with or into another entity or transfer substantially all of our assets. The Senior Notes are redeemable in whole or in part, at the option of the holders thereof, upon the occurrence of certain change of control triggering events at a purchase price in cash equal to 101 % of the principal plus accrued and unpaid interest. Accrued interest related to the Senior Notes was $49 million and $82 million as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
Estimated Fair Value. The total estimated fair value of our Senior Notes was approximately $5.2 1.1 billion as of December 31, 2025. The fair value was determined based on quoted market prices in less active markets and is categorized accordingly as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Credit Facility
As of September 30, 2026, Expedia Group maintained a $2.5 billion revolving credit facility that matures in March 2031. As of September 30, 2026, we had no revolving credit facility borrowings outstanding. Loans under the revolving credit facility bear interest at a rate equal to an index rate plus a margin (a) in the case of term benchmark loans, ranging from 1.00 % to 1.75 % per annum, depending on Expedia Group’s credit ratings, and (b) in the case of base rate loans, ranging from 0.00 % to 0.75 % per annum, depending on Expedia Group’s credit ratings. A fee is payable quarterly in respect of undrawn commitments under the revolving credit facility at a rate ranging from 0.10 % to 0.25 % per annum, depending on Expedia Group’s credit ratings. The terms of the revolving credit facility require Expedia Group to not exceed a specified maximum consolidated leverage ratio as of the end of each fiscal quarter.
The revolving credit facility has a $120 million letter of credit (“LOC”) sublimit, and the amount of LOCs issued under the facility reduced the credit amount available. Outstanding stand-by LOCs issued under the facility were $66 million as of September 30, 2026.
The current facility was entered into in March 2026 and in connection Expedia Group terminated all outstanding commitments and repaid all outstanding obligations under our prior revolving credit facility. As of December 31, 2025, we had no revolving credit facility borrowings outstanding under the prior facility and $43 million of outstanding stand-by LOCs issued under it.

Treasury Stock
As of September 30, 2026, the Company’s treasury stock was comprised of approximately 181.6 million shares of common stock and 7.3 million Class B shares. As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s treasury stock was comprised of approximately 174.5 million shares of common stock and 7.3 million Class B shares.
Share Repurchase Programs. In November 2023, the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors, pursuant to a delegation of authority from the Board, authorized a program to repurchase up to $5 billion of our common stock (“2023 Share Repurchase Program”). In May 2026, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, pursuant to a delegation of authority from the Board, authorized a program to repurchase up to an additional $5 billion of our common stock (“2026 Share Repurchase Program”). During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, we repurchased, through open market transactions, 6.2 million shares under the 2023 Share Repurchase Program for a total cost of $1.5 billion, excluding transaction costs and excise tax due under the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, representing an average repurchase price of $239.47 per share. As of September 30, 2026, $5.1 billion remained authorized for repurchase under the 2023 and 2026 Share Repurchase Programs. Subsequent to the end of the third quarter of 2026, we repurchased an additional 0.1 million shares under the 2023 Share Repurchase Program for a total cost of $24 million, excluding transaction costs and excise tax, representing an average purchase price of $265.43 per share.
Our 2023 and 2026 Share Repurchase Programs do not have fixed expiration dates and do not obligate the Company to acquire any specific number of shares. Under the programs, shares may be repurchased in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The timing, manner, price and amount of any repurchases will be subject to the discretion of the Company and depend on a variety of factors, including the market price of Expedia Group’s common stock, general market and economic conditions, regulatory requirements and other business considerations.
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The balance of AOCI as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was primarily comprised of foreign currency translation adjustments. These translation adjustments include foreign currency transaction losses as of September 30, 2026 of $3 million ($4 million before tax) and foreign currency transaction losses of $8 million ($10 million before tax) as of December 31, 2025 associated with our cross-currency interest rate swaps as described in Note 3 – Fair Value Measurements.

amounts are the same for common stock and Class B common stock because the holders of each class are legally entitled to equal per share distributions whether through dividends or in liquidation.
Note 7 - Restructuring and Related Reorganization Charges
We have continued to recalibrate resources and expand the restructure efforts that began in 2024 due to the significant completion of the Company’s organizational and technological transformation. As a result, we recognized $104 million and $76 million in restructuring and related reorganization charges during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025. The charges were predominately related to employee severance, stock-based compensation and benefit costs and approximately $27 million was included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2026. Based on current plans which are subject to change, we expect approximately $10 million in additional reorganization charges. We continue to evaluate additional cost reduction efforts, and should we make additional decisions in future periods to take further actions we may incur additional reorganization charges.
Note 8 – Income Taxes
Our tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of our annual effective tax rate. We record any changes affecting the estimated annual effective tax rate in the interim period in which the change occurs, including discrete items.
For the three months ended September 30, 2026, the effective tax rate was 20.3 %, compared to 14.7 % for the three months ended September 30, 2025. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the effective tax rate was 19.3 %, compared to 18.5 % for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The change in the effective tax rate for both periods was primarily due to a change in unrecognized tax benefits recorded in the third quarter of 2025 in connection with a U.S. federal income tax audit.
We are subject to taxation in the United States and foreign jurisdictions. Our income tax filings are routinely examined by federal, state, and foreign tax authorities. Prior to June 30, 2026, for tax years 2011 to 2013 and 2014 to 2016, the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) issued adjustments related to transfer pricing with our foreign subsidiaries. The 2011 to 2013 and the 2014 to 2016 adjustments would result in federal income tax of approximately $244 million and $431 million, respectively, subject to interest. These audit cycles have remained in administrative procedures with the IRS.
During the third quarter of 2026, the IRS replaced the prior adjustments and issued new adjustments for tax years 2011 to 2016 that apply a different method of adjusting transfer pricing with our foreign subsidiaries. The IRS also issued adjustments for 2017 and 2018. The adjustments, as proposed, would result in a federal income tax of approximately $287 million to $313 million for tax years 2011 to 2013, approximately $488 million to $531 million for tax years 2014 to 2016, and approximately $213 million to $380 million for tax years 2017 to 2018, subject to interest. We do not agree with these adjustments and will continue to vigorously defend our position through administrative procedures. The IRS has indicated that adjustments for this matter are not relevant for tax years 2019 to 2020.
Note 9 – Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Proceedings
In the ordinary course of business, we are a party to various lawsuits. Management does not expect these lawsuits to have a material impact on the liquidity, results of operations, or financial condition of Expedia Group. We also evaluate other potential contingent matters, including value-added tax, excise tax, sales tax, transient occupancy or accommodation tax and similar matters. We do not believe that the aggregate amount of liability that could be reasonably possible with respect to these matters would have a material adverse effect on our financial results; however, litigation is inherently uncertain and the actual losses incurred in the event that our legal proceedings were to result in unfavorable outcomes could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial performance.
16
Table of Contents
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued)
Litigation Relating to Occupancy Taxes. We currently have two active lawsuits involving hotel occupancy taxes and we continue to defend against the claims made in them vigorously. With respect to the principal claims in these and previous similar matters, we believe that the statutes or ordinances at issue do not apply to us or the services we provide and, therefore, that we do not owe the taxes that are claimed to be owed. We believe that the statutes or ordinances at issue generally impose occupancy and other taxes on entities that own, operate or control hotels (or similar businesses) or furnish or provide hotel rooms or similar accommodations. We have established reserves for the potential settlement of issues related to hotel occupancy and other taxes, consistent with applicable accounting principles and in light of all current facts and circumstances, which were not material as of both September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. Our settlement reserves are based on our best estimate of probable losses and the ultimate resolution of these contingencies may be greater or less than the liabilities recorded. An estimate for a reasonably possible loss or range of loss in excess of the amounts reserved cannot be made. Changes to the settlement reserves are included within legal reserves, occupancy tax and other in the consolidated statements of operations.
Pay-to-Play. Certain jurisdictions may assert that we are required to pay any assessed taxes prior to being allowed to contest or litigate the applicability of the ordinances. This prepayment of contested taxes is referred to as “pay-to-play.” Payment of these amounts is not an admission that we believe we are subject to such taxes and, even when such payments are made, we continue to defend our position vigorously. If we prevail in the litigation, for which a pay-to-play payment was made, the jurisdiction collecting the payment will be required to repay such amounts and also may be required to pay interest.
We are in various stages of inquiry or audit with various tax authorities, some of which may impose a pay-to-play requirement to challenge an adverse inquiry or audit result in court.
Note 10 – Acquisitions
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, we acquired two travel-related companies within our B2B segment and one AI trip planning company within our B2C segment. The purchase of these acquisitions totaled $676 million, $4 million of which was accrued with the remainder paid in cash. As a result of these acquisitions, we recorded $484 million of goodwill, $327 million of definite-lived intangible assets and $32 million of net deferred tax liabilities. Other assets acquired and liabilities assumed, excluding these amounts, resulted in net liabilities of $103 million and included $124 million of cash acquired. The definite-lived intangible assets primarily consist of partner relationships and developed technology assets and have a weighted average useful life of 5.8 years, the fair value of which was determined as of the respective acquisition dates using a discounted cash flow analysis for partner relationships and multi-period excess earnings method or a replacement cost approach for the technology assets (Level 3 inputs). The results of operations of each of the acquired businesses have been included in our consolidated results starting from each transactions closing dates forward; their effect on consolidated revenue and operating income during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was not material.
Note 11 – Segment Information
We have the following reportable segments : B2C, B2B, and trivago. Our B2C segment provides a full range of travel and advertising services to our worldwide customers primarily through our three flagship brands, Expedia.com, Hotels.com, and Vrbo. Our B2B segment fuels a wide range of travel and non-travel companies including airlines, offline travel agents, online retailers, corporate travel management and financial institutions, who leverage our leading travel technology and tap into our diverse supply to augment their offerings and market Expedia Group rates and availabilities to their travelers. Our trivago segment generates advertising revenue primarily from sending referrals to online travel companies and travel service providers from its hotel metasearch websites. trivago is a separately listed company on the Nasdaq Global Select Market and is therefore

required to separately report its own financial results, which may differ from the segment information included herein.
Our chief operating decision makers ("CODMs") are our Chief Executive Officer and our Chairman. We determined our operating segments based on how our chief operating decision makers manage our business, make operating decisions and evaluate operating performance. Our primary operating metric is Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA for our B2C and B2B segments includes allocations of certain expenses, primarily related to our global travel supply organization and the majority of costs from our product and technology platform, as well as facility costs and the realized foreign currency gains or losses related to the forward contracts hedging a component of our net merchant lodging revenue. We base the allocations primarily on transaction volumes and other usage metrics. We do not allocate certain shared expenses such as accounting, human resources, certain information technology and legal to our reportable segments, which are included in Unallocated corporate and other expenses in our segment tables below. Our allocation methodology is periodically evaluated and may change.
Our CODMs use Adjusted EBITDA to allocate resources for each segment predominantly in the annual budget and forecasting process. The CODMs consider budget-to-actual variances on a monthly basis using Adjusted EBITDA when making decisions about allocating capital and personnel to the segments. The CODMs also use Adjusted EBITDA to assess the performance for each segment and in the compensation of certain employees.
Our segment disclosure includes intersegment revenues, which primarily consist of advertising and media services provided by our trivago segment to our B2C segment. These intersegment transactions are recorded by each segment at amounts that approximate fair value as if the transactions were between third parties, and therefore, impact segment performance. However, the revenue and corresponding expense are eliminated in consolidation.
The following tables present our segment information for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025. As a significant portion of our property and equipment is not allocated to our reportable segments and depreciation is not included in our segment measure, we do not report assets by segment as it would not be meaningful. We do not regularly provide such information to our CODMs.

Overview
Expedia Group is the global travel marketplace with one purpose: to help travelers explore the world, one journey at a time. We connect travelers, partners, and advertisers throughout our trusted brands, leading technology, and rich first-party data, delivering predictive, personalized experiences that shape the future of travel. We make available, on a stand-alone and package basis, travel services provided by numerous lodging properties, airlines, car rental companies, activities and experiences providers, cruise lines, alternative accommodations property owners and managers, and other travel product and service companies. We also offer travel and non-travel advertisers access to a potential source of incremental traffic and transactions through our various media and advertising offerings on our websites.
All percentages within this section are calculated on actual, unrounded numbers.
Trends
The Company continues to operate in an increasingly complex business environment and global macroeconomic and geopolitical pressures, including trade disruptions, currency fluctuations and energy price volatility, contributed to this environment for the travel industry. For example, events in the Middle East and Mexico late in the first quarter of 2026 negatively affected the travel industry, and that pressure continued into the second quarter, particularly in Europe, where macro headwinds and reduced air capacity weighed on demand. While those pressures eased in the third quarter of 2026, the market remains dynamic, and if these pressures are intensified or sustained, travel behaviors may be impacted and any associated decrease in overall demand would negatively impact our business. In addition, our suppliers, business and service partners could also be impacted, thereby increasing our risk of credit losses and service level or other disruptions. Our future operational results may be subject to volatility, particularly in the short-term, due to the impact of the aforementioned trends.
These broader economic and regulatory uncertainties also extend to the global tax environment in which we operate. Domestic and international taxing authorities have in recent years become increasingly focused on ways to increase tax revenue, including the enactment of new taxes such as digital services taxes, and have become more aggressive in their interpretation and enforcement of existing tax laws, rules and regulations. We are in various stages of inquiry or audit with various tax authorities, some of which may require that we prepay any assessed taxes prior to contesting the validity of the assessment (“pay-to-play”) which will be repaid if we prevail in our challenge. However, any significant pay-to-play payment or litigation loss could negatively impact our liquidity.
Other events that could have a negative impact on the travel industry and our businesses in the future are discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors – “Declines or disruptions in the travel industry could adversely affect our business and financial performance.”
Online Travel
The market opportunity for online travel is broad and highly competitive. Online penetration of travel expenditures is higher in the U.S. and Western European markets with online penetration rates in some emerging markets, such as Latin
22
Table of Contents
America and Eastern European regions, lagging behind those regions. Emerging markets continue to present an attractive growth opportunity for our business, while also attracting many competitors to online travel. Technological developments in generative artificial intelligence (“AI”) tools are increasingly being used to create competing offerings, such as AI powered digital planning and assistance, further increasing competition.
In addition to the growth of online travel agencies, we have seen continued interest in the online travel industry from search engine companies such as Google, evidenced by continued product enhancements, and prioritizing its own AdWords and metasearch products such as Google Travel, Google Flights and Hotel Ads, in search results. Competitive entrants such as “metasearch” companies, including Kayak.com (owned by Booking Holdings), trivago (in which Expedia Group owns a majority interest) as well as TripAdvisor, introduced differentiated features, pricing and content compared with the legacy online travel agency companies, as well as various forms of direct or assisted booking tools. Further, airlines and lodging companies are aggressively pursuing direct online distribution of their products and services.
In addition, the increasing popularity of the “sharing economy,” accelerated by online penetration, has had a direct impact on the travel and lodging industry. Businesses such as Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com have emerged as the leaders, bringing incremental alternative accommodation inventory to the market. Other competitors have arisen, including alternative accommodation property managers, who operate their own booking sites in addition to listing on Airbnb, Vrbo, and Booking.com. Additionally, traditional consumer ecommerce players have expanded their local offerings by adding hotel offers to their websites. Ride sharing app Uber has added transportation and experience offerings to its app via partnerships with other travel providers. Our B2B business has grown significantly but faces competition from other online travel agencies (“OTAs”) with B2B offerings, as well as other competitors such as independent B2B providers.
The online travel industry also saw the development of alternative business models and variations in the timing of payment by travelers and to suppliers, which in some cases place pressure on historical business models. In particular, the agency hotel model saw rapid adoption in Europe. Expedia Group facilitates both merchant (Expedia Collect) and agency (Hotel Collect) hotel offerings with our hotel supply partners through both agency-only contracts as well as our hybrid Expedia Traveler Preference (“ETP”) program, which offers travelers the choice of whether to pay Expedia Group at the time of booking or pay the hotel at the time of stay.
Lodging
Lodging includes both hotel and alternative accommodations. As a percentage of our total worldwide revenue in the third quarter of 2026, lodging accounted for 81%. Room nights booked grew 7% in the third quarter of 2026, as compared to growth of 8% in 2025 and 9% in 2024. Average Daily Rates (“ADRs”) booked for Expedia Group increased 2% in the third quarter of 2026, increased 1% in 2025 and decreased 1% in 2024.
As of September 30, 2026, our global lodging marketplace had approximately 3.9 million total lodging properties available, including approximately 2.5 million online bookable alternative accommodations through Vrbo and approximately 1.4 million hotels and alternative accommodations through our other brands.
Hotel. We generate the majority of our revenue through the facilitation of hotel reservations (stand-alone and package bookings). Our relationships and overall economics with hotel supply partners have been broadly stable in recent years. As we continue to expand the breadth and depth of our global hotel offering, in some cases we have reduced our economics in various geographies based on local market conditions. These impacts are due to specific initiatives intended to drive greater global size and scale through faster overall room night growth. Additionally, increased promotional activities such as growing loyalty programs, discounting, and couponing have contributed to declines in revenue per room night and profitability in certain cases.
Further, while the global lodging industry remains very fragmented, there has been consolidation in the hotel space among chains as well as ownership groups. In the meantime, certain hotel chains have been focusing on driving direct bookings on their own websites and mobile applications by advertising lower rates than those available on third-party websites as well as incentives such as loyalty programs, increased or exclusive product availability and complimentary benefits.
Alternative Accommodations. Over the past decade, we expanded into the alternative accommodations market. Vrbo is a leader, specializing in unique whole home inventory, primarily in North American leisure markets, and represents an attractive growth opportunity for Expedia Group.
Vrbo has transitioned from a listings-based classified advertising model to an online transactional model that optimizes for both travelers and homeowner and property manager partners, with a goal of increasing monetization and driving growth through investments in marketing as well as in product and technology. Vrbo primarily offers pay-per-booking service model and generates revenue from a traveler service fee for bookings, as well as insurance products.
Since our hotel and alternative accommodation supplier agreements are generally negotiated on a percentage basis, any increase or decrease in ADRs has an impact on the revenue we earn per room night. In the future, we could see macroeconomic
23
Table of Contents
factors influence ADR trends, including rising living costs due to inflation and higher interest rates. Other factors that could lead to moderating ADRs include growth in hotel supply and the increase in alternative accommodation inventory.
Advertising & Media
Expedia Group (“EG”) Advertising is responsible for generating advertising revenue on our global online travel brands through a variety of digital marketing solutions. In the third quarter of 2026, we generated $206 million of advertising revenue from EG Advertising, a 7% increase from the same period in 2025.
We also generate advertising revenue from trivago, a leading hotel metasearch website. In the third quarter of 2026, we generated $165 million of third-party revenue from trivago, a 20% increase from the same period in 2025.
As a percentage of our total worldwide revenue in the third quarter of 2026, total advertising and media accounted for 8%.
Air
During 2026, events in the Middle East reduced global air capacity and drove a material increase in prices, which adversely affected our booked air ticket volume, while having a less pronounced impact on total booked value. Our air bookings grew in the third quarter of 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 in line with growth in our lodging business.
In the future, we could encounter pressure on air remuneration as air carriers combine, more air carriers shift to our “direct connect” technology, certain supply agreements renew, and as we continue to add airlines to ensure local coverage in new markets.
Booked air tickets decreased 6% in the third quarter of 2026, increased 5% in 2025 and increased 6% in 2024. As a percentage of our total worldwide revenue in the third quarter of 2026, air accounted for 2%.
Business Strategy
As we endeavor to power global travel for everyone, everywhere our focus is to leverage our brand, supply and platform technology strength to provide greater services and value to our travelers, suppliers and business partners, and build longer-lasting direct relationships with our customers. We continue to integrate artificial intelligence across our platform, including in traveler-facing experiences, customer service operations and internal processes, with the goal of improving conversion, personalization and operational efficiency. We also collaborate with leading AI platforms to enhance our capabilities and accelerate innovation.
We believe the strength of our core brand portfolio and consistent enhancements to product and service offerings, combined with our global scale and broad-based supply, drive increasing value to customers and customer demand. With our significant global audience of travelers, and our deep and broad selection of travel products, we are also able to provide value to supply partners seeking to grow their business through sophisticated technology, a better understanding of travel retailing and reaching consumers in markets beyond their reach. Our deep product and supply footprint allows us to tailor offerings to target different types of consumers and travel needs, employ geographic segmentation in markets around the world, and leverage brand differentiation, among other benefits. We also market to consumers through a variety of channels, including internet search, metasearch and social and digital media.
We have coordinated our technology, product, data engineering, and data science teams in order to build services and capabilities that can be leveraged across our business units to provide value-add services to our travel suppliers and serve our end customers. The synergies in our team structure enable us to deliver more scalable services and operate more efficiently with our core B2C brands benefiting from a unified technology front-end infrastructure. Going forward, we expect to continue to cement our leadership in the B2B segment as our B2B business also benefits from all the work we have done in product and technology for our B2C brands.
As we continue to mature our shared platform infrastructure, our focus is on developing configurable technical capabilities that support various travel products while using simpler, standard architecture and common applications and frameworks. We believe this strategy will enable us to: simultaneously build pieces of technology that work in tandem; ship new capabilities and features faster; create a foundation for more innovative solutions; and achieve greater economies of scope and scale. Ultimately, we believe this will result in more product improvements faster and therefore better traveler experiences. All of our transaction-based businesses now benefit from our shared platform infrastructure, including customer servicing and support, data centers, search capabilities, payment processing, and fraud operations.
We launched One Key in the United States and United Kingdom, which serves as a unified loyalty program for Brand Expedia, Hotels.com and Vrbo, enabling travelers to cross-earn and cross-redeem rewards across these brands and our range of products such as air, hotels and alternative accommodations. During the second half of 2025, One Key was expanded to a number of new Brand Expedia markets across the globe with the majority of Expedia Rewards members now migrated to the program.

Seasonality
We generally experience seasonal fluctuations in the demand for our travel services. For example, traditional leisure travel bookings are generally the highest in the first three quarters as travelers plan and book their spring, summer and winter holiday travel. The number of bookings typically decreases in the fourth quarter. Since revenue for most of our travel services, including merchant and agency hotel, is recognized as the travel takes place rather than when it is booked, revenue typically lags bookings by several weeks for our hotel business and can be several months or more for our alternative accommodations business. Historically, Vrbo has seen seasonally stronger bookings in the first quarter of the year, with the relevant stays occurring during the peak summer travel months. The seasonal revenue impact is exacerbated with respect to income by the nature of our variable cost of revenue and direct sales and marketing costs, which we typically realize in closer alignment to booking volumes, and the more stable nature of our fixed costs. As a result, on a consolidated basis, revenue and income are typically the lowest in the first quarter and highest in the third quarter.
The growth in our B2B segment, international operations, advertising business or a change in our product mix, among others, may also influence the typical trend of seasonality in the future.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Critical accounting policies and estimates are those that we believe are important in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements because they require that we use judgment and estimates in applying those policies. We prepare our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). Preparation of the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes requires that we make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements as well as revenue and expenses during the periods reported. We base our estimates on historical experience, where applicable, and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from our estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
There are certain critical estimates that we believe require significant judgment in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. We consider an accounting estimate to be critical if:
•It requires us to make an assumption because information was not available at the time or it included matters that were highly uncertain at the time we were making the estimate; and
•Changes in the estimate or different estimates that we could have selected may have had a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
For additional information about our critical accounting policies and estimates, see the disclosure included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 as well as updates in the current fiscal year provided in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
Segments
We have the following reportable segments: B2C, B2B, and trivago. Our B2C segment provides a full range of travel and advertising services to our worldwide customers primarily through our three flagship brands, Expedia.com, Hotels.com, and Vrbo. Our B2B segment fuels a wide range of travel and non-travel companies including airlines, offline travel agents, online retailers, corporate travel management and financial institutions, who leverage our leading travel technology and tap into our diverse supply to augment their offerings and market Expedia Group rates and availabilities to their travelers. Our trivago segment generates advertising revenue primarily from sending referrals to online travel companies and travel service providers from its hotel metasearch websites.
Operating Metrics
Our operating results are affected by certain metrics, such as gross bookings and revenue margin, which we believe are necessary for understanding and evaluating us. Gross bookings generally represent the total retail value of transactions booked for agency and merchant transactions, recorded at the time of booking reflecting the total price due for travel by travelers, including taxes, fees and other charges, and are reduced for cancellations and refunds. Revenue margin is defined as revenue as a percentage of gross bookings.

____________________________
(1)trivago, which is comprised of a hotel metasearch business that differs from our transaction-based websites, does not have associated gross bookings or revenue margin. However, third-party revenue from trivago is included in revenue used to calculate total revenue margin.
Gross bookings increased 11% and 12% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to the same periods in 2025. B2C gross bookings growth was driven by sustained momentum in the U.S. B2B gross bookings grew double-digits across all regions. Booked room nights for our lodging business increased 7% and 6% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, which was led by continued strength in B2B.

Lodging revenue increased 11% and 12% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to the same periods in 2025, primarily driven by an increase in room nights stayed in our hotel business and higher ADRs stayed.
Air revenue decreased 7% for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to the same periods in 2025, primarily driven by fewer air tickets sold and lower revenue per ticket.
EG Advertising revenue increased 7% and 11% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to the same periods in 2025, driven by both our sponsored listing and display businesses. trivago Advertising revenue increased 20% and 36% for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to the same periods in 2025, driven by its strategic focus on brand rebuilding in recent years.
All other revenue, which includes insurance, car, cruise and activities, increased 28% and 23% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to the same periods in 2025 primarily due to higher insurance and activities revenue.
In addition to the above segment and product revenue discussion, our revenue by business model is as follows:

The increase in merchant revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to the same periods in 2025, was primarily due to an increase in merchant lodging revenue. Agency revenue increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the same periods in 2025, primarily due to increase in activities and insurance revenue. Advertising, media and other increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to the same periods in 2025, primarily due to growth in both trivago revenue and EG Advertising.

Cost of revenue increased $43 million and $89 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the same periods in 2025, to support our revenue growth. Cost of revenue decreased as a percentage of revenue during the year-to-date period driven by continued efficiencies in servicing and cloud costs.

Legal reserves, occupancy tax and other primarily consists of increases in our reserves for court decisions and the potential and final settlement of issues related to hotel occupancy and other taxes, expenses recognized related to monies paid in advance of occupancy and other tax proceedings (“pay-to-play”) as well as legal reserves and certain other items.
Legal reserves, occupancy tax and other for the three months ended September 30, 2026, primarily included changes to our reserve related to occupancy and other taxes.
The net credit in legal reserves, occupancy tax and other for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was primarily due to the reversal of Canadian digital service taxes (“DST”). On March 26, 2026, the government of Canada enacted legislation as part of its 2026 federal budget that repealed the Digital Services Tax Act, with retroactive effect to June 20, 2024.
We had previously recognized, during 2024 and 2025, accruals for anticipated Canadian DST liabilities related to certain digital services revenues, based on enacted law at that time and guidance then available from the Canada Revenue Agency. In connection with the repeal, during the nine months ended September 30, 2026, we reversed $71 million of previously recognized Canadian DST liabilities, covering in-scope periods from January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2025. As of September 30, 2026, the Company no longer has an obligation related to the Canadian DST.
Legal reserves, occupancy tax and other for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, primarily included $90 million related to an Italian withholding tax settlement reserve.
Restructuring and Related Reorganization Charges
We have continued to recalibrate resources and expand the restructure efforts that began in 2024 due to the significant completion of the Company’s organizational and technological transformation. As a result, we recognized $104 million and $76 million in restructuring and related reorganization charges during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, which were predominately related to employee severance, stock-based compensation and benefits costs. Based on current plans which are subject to change, we expect approximately $10 million in additional reorganization charges. We continue to evaluate additional cost reduction efforts, and should we make additional decisions in future periods to take further actions we may incur additional reorganization charges.

Our B2C segment Adjusted EBITDA increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to the same periods in 2025 as a result of revenue growth and disciplined cost management, particularly in direct selling and marketing. Our B2B segment experienced an increase in Adjusted EBITDA during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to the same periods in 2025, primarily as a result of double-digit revenue growth, partially offset by a prioritization of investments to support future growth. Our trivago segment Adjusted EBITDA increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to the same periods in 2025, as a result of revenue growth, partially offset by higher operating costs, including direct selling and marketing expenses.

| Effective tax rate | 20.3 | % | 14.7 | % | 19.3 | % | 18.5 | % | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Our tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of our annual effective tax rate. We record any changes affecting the estimated annual effective tax rate in the interim period in which the change occurs, including discrete items.
For the three months ended September 30, 2026, the effective tax rate was 20.3%, compared to 14.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2025. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the effective tax rate was 19.3%, compared to 18.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The change in the effective tax rate for both periods was primarily due to a change in unrecognized tax benefits recorded in the third quarter of 2025 in connection with a U.S. federal income tax audit.
We are subject to taxation in the United States and foreign jurisdictions. Our income tax filings are routinely examined by federal, state, and foreign tax authorities. Prior to June 30, 2026, for tax years 2011 to 2013 and 2014 to 2016, the IRS issued adjustments related to transfer pricing with our foreign subsidiaries. The 2011 to 2013 and the 2014 to 2016 adjustments would result in federal income tax of approximately $244 million and $431 million, respectively, subject to interest. These audit cycles have remained in administrative procedures with the IRS.
During the third quarter of 2026, the IRS replaced the prior adjustments and issued new adjustments for tax years 2011 to 2016 that apply a different method of adjusting transfer pricing with our foreign subsidiaries. The IRS also issued adjustments for 2017 and 2018. The adjustments, as proposed, would result in a federal income tax of approximately $287 million to $313 million for tax years 2011 to 2013, approximately $488 million to $531 million for tax years 2014 to 2016, and approximately $213 million to $380 million for tax years 2017 to 2018, subject to interest. We do not agree with these adjustments and will continue to vigorously defend our position through administrative procedures. The IRS has indicated that adjustments for this matter are not relevant for tax years 2019 to 2020.
Definition and Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA
We report Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Adjusted EBITDA is among the primary metrics by which management evaluates the performance of the business and on which internal budgets are based. Management believes that investors should have access to the same set of tools that management uses to analyze our results. This non-GAAP measure should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA has certain limitations in that it does not take into account the impact of certain expenses to our consolidated statements of operations. We endeavor to compensate for the limitation of the non-GAAP measure presented by also providing the most directly comparable
31
Table of Contents
GAAP measure and a description of the reconciling items and adjustments to derive the non-GAAP measure. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes certain items related to transactional tax matters, which may ultimately be settled in cash, and we urge investors to review the detailed disclosure regarding these matters included above, in the Legal Proceedings section, as well as the notes to the financial statements. The non-GAAP financial measure used by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) attributable to Expedia Group, Inc. adjusted for (1) net income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests; (2) provision for income taxes; (3) total other expenses, net; (4) stock-based compensation expense, including compensation expense related to certain subsidiary equity plans; (5) acquisition-related impacts, including (i) amortization of intangible assets and goodwill and intangible asset impairment, (ii) gains (losses) recognized on changes in the value of contingent consideration arrangements, if any, and (iii) upfront consideration paid to settle employee compensation plans of the acquiree, if any; (6) certain other items, including restructuring; (7) items included in legal reserves, occupancy tax and other; (8) that portion of gains (losses) on revenue hedging activities that are included in other, net that relate to revenue recognized in the period; and (9) depreciation.
The above items are excluded from our Adjusted EBITDA measure because these items are noncash in nature, or because the amount and timing of these items is unpredictable, not driven by core operating results and renders comparisons with prior periods and competitors less meaningful. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure for analysts and investors to evaluate our future on-going performance as this measure allows a more meaningful comparison of our performance and projected cash earnings with our historical results from prior periods and to the results of our competitors. Moreover, our management uses this measure internally to evaluate the performance of our business as a whole and our individual business segments. In addition, we believe that by excluding certain items, such as stock-based compensation and acquisition-related impacts, Adjusted EBITDA corresponds more closely to the cash operating income generated from our business and allows investors to gain an understanding of the factors and trends affecting the ongoing cash earnings capabilities of our business, from which capital investments are made and debt is serviced.

Financial Position, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal sources of liquidity are typically cash flows generated from operations, cash available under our credit facility as well as our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investment balances, which were $5.6 billion and $5.7 billion at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. As of September 30, 2026, the total cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments held outside the United States was $442 million ($283 million in wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries and $158 million in majority-owned subsidiaries).
Revolving Credit Facility. On March 27, 2026, we entered into a new revolving credit facility with aggregate commitments of $2.5 billion, which replaced our previous credit facility with the same commitment level and matures in March 2031. The revolving credit facility was essentially untapped at September 30, 2026.
5.5% Senior Notes Issuance. In April 2026, we issued $1 billion of registered senior unsecured notes, which bear interest at 5.5% and are due in April 2036 (the “5.5% Notes”). The 5.5% Notes were issued at 99.384% of par resulting in a discount,

which is being amortized over their life. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears in April and October of each year, beginning October 15, 2026. We used or expect to use the net proceeds of this offering of approximately $986 million for general corporate purposes, which may include, but not limited to: (i) repayment, prepayment, redemption or repurchase of outstanding debt, (ii) dividends and stock repurchases, and (iii) funding for working capital, capital expenditures and acquisitions.
Redemption of our 5.0% Senior Notes and 0% Convertible Notes. In February 2026, our $750 million in senior unsecured notes that bore interest at 5.0% (the “5.0% Notes”) matured and the balance was repaid along with applicable accrued and unpaid interest. Also in February 2026, upon maturity of the Convertible Notes, we paid approximately $1.1 billion in cash to repay the principal amount and settle our payment obligations in connection with conversion elections of the holders thereof, which included a conversion premium of approximately $78 million.
Our credit ratings are periodically reviewed by rating agencies. As of September 30, 2026, Moody’s rating was Baa2 with an outlook of “positive,” S&P’s rating was BBB with an outlook of “stable” and Fitch’s rating was BBB with an outlook of “stable.” Changes in our operating results, cash flows, financial position, capital structure, financial policy or capital allocations to share repurchase, dividends, investments and acquisitions could impact the ratings assigned by the various rating agencies. Should our credit ratings be adjusted downward, we may incur higher costs to borrow and/or limited access to capital markets and interest rates on our 4.625% senior notes as well as our 2.95% senior notes will increase, which could have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
As of September 30, 2026, we were in compliance with the covenants and conditions in our revolving credit facility and outstanding debt as detailed in Note 4 – Debt in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
Under the merchant model, we receive cash from travelers at the time of booking and we record these amounts on our consolidated balance sheets as deferred merchant bookings. We pay our airline suppliers related to these merchant model bookings generally within a few weeks after completing the transaction. For most other merchant bookings, which is primarily our merchant lodging business, we generally pay after the travelers’ use and, in some cases, subsequent billing from the hotel suppliers. Therefore, generally we receive cash from the traveler prior to paying our supplier, and this operating cycle represents a working capital source of cash to us. Typically, the seasonal fluctuations in our merchant hotel bookings have affected the timing of our annual cash flows. Generally, during the first half of the year, hotel bookings have traditionally exceeded stays, resulting in much higher cash flow related to working capital. During the second half of the year, this pattern typically reverses and cash flows are typically negative.
Our cash flows are as follows:

For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, net cash provided by operating activities increased compared to the prior year period due to higher operating income after adjusting for impacts of depreciation and amortization, partially offset by lower working capital benefits generated from deferred merchant bookings.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, net cash used in investing activities was $1.8 billion compared to $332 million used in the prior year period. The increase in usage was primarily due to net purchases of investments in the current year compared to net sales and maturities of investments in the prior year as well as cash used for acquisitions in the current year.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, net cash used in financing activities primarily included $1.8 billion of payments related to the redemption of our 5.0% Notes and our 0% Convertible Notes in February 2026 as discussed above as well as $1.7 billion of cash paid to acquire shares, including the repurchased shares under the authorization discussed below and for treasury stock activity related to the vesting of equity instruments, as well as cash dividend payments of $173 million, partially offset by proceeds from the issuance of 5.5% senior notes with net proceeds of $986 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, net cash used in financing activities primarily included the February 2025 redemption of

approximately $1 billion of our 6.25% senior notes, $1.6 billion of cash paid to acquire shares, and cash dividend payments of $151 million, partially offset by the February 2025 issuance of 5.4% senior notes with net proceeds of $985 million.
In November 2023, the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors, pursuant to a delegation of authority from the Board, authorized an additional program to repurchase up to $5 billion of our common stock (“2023 Share Repurchase Program”). In May 2026, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, pursuant to a delegation of authority from the Board, authorized a program to repurchase up to an additional $5 billion of our common stock (“2026 Share Repurchase Program”). During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, we repurchased, through open market transactions, 6.2 million shares under 2023 Share Repurchase Program for a total cost of approximately $1.5 billion, excluding transaction costs and excise tax due under the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. As of September 30, 2026, $5.1 billion remained authorized for repurchase under the 2023 and 2026 Share Repurchase Programs. Our 2023 and 2026 Share Repurchase Programs do not have fixed expiration dates and do not obligate the Company to acquire any specific number of shares. Under the programs, shares may be repurchased in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The timing, manner, price and amount of any repurchases will be subject to the discretion of the Company and depend on a variety of factors, including the market price of Expedia Group’s common stock, general market and economic conditions, regulatory requirements and other business considerations.
The Executive Committee, acting on behalf of the Board of Directors, declared and we paid the following dividends during the period presented:

| Nine months ended September 30, 2026 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

In addition, in November 2026, the Executive Committee, acting on behalf of the Board of Directors, declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.48 per share of outstanding common stock payable on December 10, 2026 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on November 18, 2026. Future declarations of dividends are subject to final determination by our Board of Directors.
Foreign exchange rate changes resulted in a decrease of our cash and restricted cash balances denominated in foreign currency during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 of $39 million reflecting a net depreciation in foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar compared to $191 million increase in the prior year period reflecting a net appreciation in foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar.
Other than discussed above, there have been no material changes outside the normal course of business to our contractual obligations and commercial commitments since December 31, 2025.
In our opinion, our liquidity position provides sufficient capital resources to meet our foreseeable cash needs. There can be no assurance, however, that the cost or availability of future borrowings, including refinancings, if any, will be available on terms acceptable to us.
