RevPAR financial
"Represents revenue per available Room and is calculated by multiplying average occupancy rate by ADR."
RevPAR, or revenue per available room, is a measure used in the hotel industry to show how much money a hotel earns from each of its rooms over a certain period. It helps investors understand how well a hotel is performing financially, similar to how a store's sales per square foot reveal its profitability. Higher RevPAR indicates better use of resources and stronger financial health.
FeePAR financial
"Development pipeline grew 4% year-over-year to a record of approximately 261,000 rooms, carrying a FeePAR premium."
Adjusted EBITDA financial
"Adjusted EBITDA increased 9% year-over-year to $212 million, or 3% higher on a comparable basis."
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.
Adjusted free cash flow financial
"Adjusted free cash flow increased 19% to $105 million."
Adjusted free cash flow is the amount of money a company generates from its operations after accounting for essential expenses and investments, like maintaining or upgrading equipment. It shows how much cash is truly available to grow the business, pay debts, or return to shareholders, helping investors see the company's financial health more clearly.
Net debt leverage ratio financial
"Net debt leverage ratio was 3.5x as of June 30, 2026."
Net debt leverage ratio measures how many years of a company’s core earnings would be needed to pay off its debt after accounting for cash on hand, calculated by dividing net debt (total debt minus cash) by annual operating earnings. Investors use it like a household debt-to-income check: a lower number means the company is in a stronger position to handle obligations and take risks, while a higher number signals greater financial strain and vulnerability to shocks.

PARSIPPANY, N.J., July 22, 2026 - Wyndham Hotels & Resorts (NYSE: WH) today announced results for the three months ended June 30, 2026. Highlights include:
•U.S. RevPAR grew 2% year-over-year.
•System-wide rooms grew 4% year-over-year, excluding insolvent Revo Hospitality Group ("Revo") rooms.
•Development pipeline grew 4% year-over-year, excluding Revo, to a record of approximately 261,000 rooms, carrying a FeePAR premium of approximately 30% to existing domestic and international systems.
•Net income increased 17% year-over-year to $102 million; adjusted net income increased 8% year-over-year to $111 million, or flat on a comparable basis.
•Diluted EPS grew 20% to $1.36 and adjusted diluted EPS grew 11% year-over-year to $1.48, or 3% higher on a comparable basis.
•Adjusted EBITDA increased 9% year-over-year to $212 million, or 3% higher on a comparable basis.

"Record second quarter openings focused on higher FeePAR hotels in the midscale and above segments, demonstrate franchisees' continued confidence in our brands and Wyndham's compelling 'Owner First' value proposition. As domestic RevPAR trends, net rooms growth, global pipeline development and ancillary revenue streams continue to strengthen, we remain confident in our ability to deliver sustainable long-term growth and create meaningful value for our shareholders, franchisees, and guests.”

During the preparation of its year-end 2025 financial statements, the Company learned that Revo, a large European franchisee, had filed for insolvency proceedings under self-administration for most of its operating entities. The Company removed all Revo-related revenue recognition from its 2026 outlook and reported results given the uncertainty on expected outcomes and collectability. In addition, the Company's 2026 net room growth outlook also excluded any impact associated with Revo's ongoing insolvency and, as such, the Company's global net room growth metrics are also presented excluding Revo-related rooms.
The Company's global system, excluding Revo, grew 4%. The Company's U.S. system grew 10 basis points sequentially and was flat year-over-year. International growth of 10% year-over-year, excluding Revo, included 12% direct-franchised growth in the Company's Asia Pacific region and 11% growth in the Company's higher RevPAR EMEA and Latin America regions.
As of June 30, 2026, the Company's global development pipeline increased 4% vs. prior-year, excluding Revo, to a record-high of approximately 261,000 rooms and over 2,200 hotels. Key highlights of the Company's pipeline include:
•2% growth in the U.S. and 5% growth internationally, excluding Revo
•Approximately 69% is in the midscale and above segments
•Approximately 17% is in the extended stay segment
•Approximately 42% is in the U.S.
•Approximately 78% is new construction and approximately 35% of these projects have broken ground; rooms under construction grew 4% year-over-year
•Approximately 30% FeePAR premium compared to existing domestic and international systems

Second quarter global RevPAR decreased 1% in constant currency compared to 2025, reflecting 2% growth in the U.S. and a 6% decline internationally.
In the U.S., RevPAR improved 2% both year-over-year and sequentially, reflecting improved occupancy and ADR levels. Overall, U.S. RevPAR results were primarily driven by continued strength across the Midwest and both sequential and year-over-year growth in Texas, Florida and California.
Internationally, constant currency growth of 2% in Canada reflected sustained pricing power, while growth of 5% in Southeast Asia and the Pacific Rim primarily reflected improved demand. Growth in those regions was more than offset in Latin America, which declined 7% year-over-year primarily due to lower U.S. cross-border demand in Mexico, EMEA, which declined 6% year-over-year largely driven by the geopolitical conflict in the Middle East as well as softness in the performance of Revo hotels in its insolvency, and China, which declined by 5% year-over-year primarily due to continued deflationary pricing pressure.
Operating Results
The comparability of the Company’s second quarter results is impacted by marketing fund variability. The Company’s reported results and comparable basis results (adjusted to neutralize these impacts) are presented below to enhance transparency and provide a better understanding of the results of the Company’s ongoing operations.

NOTE: Growth rates may not recalculate due to rounding; see Table 7 for a reconciliation of non-GAAP metrics and Table 9 for definitions.
(a) Includes estimated tax impact of marketing fund variability.
•Net revenues declined 6% to $375 million compared to $397 million in the second quarter of 2025, reflecting the absence of pass-through revenues due to the Company's global franchisee conference in May 2025. In addition, the decline reflected lower other franchise fees and the deferral of fees from Revo, which was partially offset by higher ancillary revenues, EBITDA-neutral revenues from the two Revo hotels the Company took possession of and global net rooms growth, excluding Revo, of 4%.
•Net income increased 17% to $102 million compared to $87 million in the second quarter of 2025, primarily reflecting higher adjusted EBITDA and lower restructuring and other-related costs, partially offset by increased interest expense. Adjusted net income grew 8% to $111 million compared to $103 million in the second quarter of 2025.
•Adjusted EBITDA increased 9% to $212 million compared to $195 million in the second quarter of 2025. This increase included a $11 million favorable impact from marketing fund variability, excluding which adjusted EBITDA increased 3% on a comparable basis, primarily reflecting lower general and administrative expenses driven largely by insurance recoveries, the timing of variable costs and higher
3
ancillary revenues, partially offset by a decline in other franchise fees and the deferral of fees from Revo.
•Diluted EPS grew 20% to $1.36 compared to $1.13 in the second quarter of 2025, which reflects higher net income and the benefit of a lower share count due to share repurchase activity.
•Adjusted diluted EPS increased 11% to $1.48 compared to $1.33 in the second quarter of 2025. This increase included a favorable impact of $0.11 per share related to marketing fund variability (after estimated taxes). On a comparable basis, adjusted diluted EPS increased approximately 3% year-over-year primarily reflecting a comparable basis increase in adjusted EBITDA and the benefit of share repurchase activity, partially offset by increased interest expense.

(a) Excludes any potential room termination impact associated with Revo's ongoing insolvency.
(b) Represents constant currency basis; on a reported basis, which includes foreign currency impacts, would be 0.0% - 1.0%. The Company's prior outlook for second half domestic RevPAR of approximately 0% has been increased to approximately 2% in the Company's updated outlook.

(c) Includes approximately $10 million of net revenues from the two hotels that the Company foreclosed on and took ownership of as part of Revo's ongoing insolvency.
(d) Includes the effects of the deferral of $12 million of royalties and franchise fees from Revo and the inclusion of $15 million of previously disclosed one-time variable cost reductions made in 2025; excluding which comparable basis growth rate would be 5% - 7%.
The Company expects marketing fund revenues to roughly equal expenses during full-year 2026 though seasonality of spend will affect the quarterly comparisons throughout the year.
More detailed projections are available in Table 8 of this press release. The Company is providing certain financial metrics only on a non-GAAP basis because, without unreasonable efforts, it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the occurrence or amount of all of the adjustments or other potential adjustments that may arise in the future during the forward-looking period, which can be dependent on future events that may not be reliably predicted. Based on past reported results, where one or more of these items have been applicable, such excluded items could be material, individually or in the aggregate, to the reported results.

| The tables below reconcile certain non-GAAP financial measures. The presentation of these adjustments is intended to permit the comparison of particular adjustments as they appear in the income statement in order to assist investors’ understanding of the overall impact of such adjustments. The Company believes that adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS financial measures provide useful information to investors about the Company and its financial condition and results of operations because these measures are used by its management team to evaluate its operating performance and make day-to-day operating decisions and adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties as a common performance measure to compare results or estimate valuations across companies in its industry. These measures also assist the Company's investors in evaluating its ongoing operating performance for the current reporting period and, where provided, over different reporting periods, by adjusting for certain items which may be recurring or non-recurring and which in the Company's view do not necessarily reflect ongoing performance. The Company also internally uses these measures to assess its operating performance, both absolutely and in comparison to other companies, and in evaluating or making selected compensation decisions. These supplemental disclosures are in addition to GAAP reported measures.

(a) Includes the effects of the deferral of $12 million of royalties and franchise fees from Revo and the inclusion of $15 million of previously disclosed one-time variable cost reductions made in 2025; excluding which comparable basis growth rates would be 5% - 7%.
(b) Excludes amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets of approximately $25 million.
(c) Outlook assumes an effective tax rate of approximately 25%.
(d) Excludes the impact of any share repurchases after June 30, 2026.
(e) Represents constant currency basis; on a reported basis, which includes foreign currency impacts, would be 0.0% - 1.0%. The Company's prior outlook for second half domestic RevPAR of 0% has been increased to ~2% in the Company's updated outlook.
(f) Excludes any potential room termination impact associated with Revo's ongoing insolvency.
To assist with modeling, each 1% change in RevPAR equates to an approximate $10 million impact to net revenues and $4 million to adjusted EBITDA. If a significant pullback in demand were to materialize beyond the Company's current assumptions, actual results could fall below these estimates.
In determining adjusted EBITDA, interest expense, net, adjusted income before income taxes, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS and free cash flow conversion rate, the Company excludes certain items which are otherwise included in determining the comparable GAAP financial measures. The Company is providing these measures on a non-GAAP basis only because, without unreasonable efforts, it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the occurrence or amount of all the adjustments or other potential adjustments that may arise in the future during the forward-looking period, which can be dependent on future events that may not be reliably predicted. Based on past reported results, where one or more of these items have been applicable, such excluded items could be material, individually or in the aggregate, to the reported results.

| DEFINITIONS | |||||||||||||||||||||||
Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS: Represents net income and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") excluding acquisition-related amortization, impairment and other-related charges (including Revo-related charges), significant accelerated depreciation, restructuring and other-related charges, contract termination costs, separation-related items, transaction-related items (acquisition-, disposition-, or debt-related), (gain)/loss on asset sales, foreign currency impacts of highly inflationary countries and special tax items. The Company calculates the income tax effect of the adjustments using an estimated effective tax rate applicable to each adjustment.
Adjusted EBITDA: Represents net income excluding net interest expense, depreciation and amortization, early extinguishment of debt charges, impairment and other-related charges (including Revo-related charges), restructuring and other-related charges, contract termination costs, separation-related items, transaction-related items (acquisition-, disposition-, or debt-related), (gain)/loss on asset sales, foreign currency impacts of highly inflationary countries, stock-based compensation expense, income taxes and development advance notes amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure that is not recognized under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or other measures of financial performance or liquidity derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, the Company's definition of adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
Adjusted Free Cash Flow: Represents free cash flow excluding payments related to separation-related items.
Ancillary Revenues: Represents the summation of the license and other fees line item and other revenues line item per the income statement.
Average Daily Rate (ADR): Represents the average rate charged for renting a Room for one day.
Average Occupancy Rate: Represents the percentage of available Rooms occupied during the period.
Comparable Basis: Represents a comparison eliminating Marketing Fund Variability.
Constant Currency: Represents a comparison eliminating the effects of foreign exchange rate fluctuations between periods (foreign currency translation) and the impact caused by any foreign exchange related activities (i.e., hedges, balance sheet remeasurements and/or adjustments).
FeePAR: Represents annual royalties per franchised Room and is calculated by dividing total annual royalty revenue of the Company's franchised hotels by the number of franchised Rooms in its system size.
Free Cash Flow: Reflects net cash provided by operating activities excluding development advances, less capital expenditures. The Company believes free cash flow to be a useful operating performance measure to it and investors. This measure helps the Company and investors evaluate its ability to generate cash beyond what is needed to fund capital expenditures, debt service and other obligations. Notwithstanding cash on hand and incremental borrowing capacity, free cash flow reflects the Company’s ability to grow its business through investments and acquisitions, as well as its ability to return cash to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases or even to delever. Free cash flow is not a representation of how the Company will use excess cash. A limitation of using free cash flow versus the GAAP measure of net cash provided by operating activities as a means for evaluating Wyndham Hotels is that free cash flow does not represent the total cash movement for the period as detailed in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.
Free Cash Flow Conversion Rate: Represents the percentage of adjusted EBITDA that is converted to free cash flow and provides insights into how efficiently the Company is able to turn profits into cash available for use, such as for investments (including development advance notes), debt reduction, dividends or share repurchases.
Marketing Fund Variability: Relates to the quarterly timing variances from the Company's marketing funds. The Company's franchise agreements require the payment of marketing and reservation fees, and in accordance with these franchise agreements, the Company is generally contractually obligated to expend such fees for the benefit of each of its brands over time. Marketing and reservation fees earned are generally highest during the summer season when the franchised hotels have the highest occupancy and daily rates, while marketing and reservation expenses are generally highest during the first half of the year in an effort to drive higher occupancy in the summer months. Accordingly, the seasonality of the marketing and reservation revenues and expenses results in adjusted EBITDA variability during the quarters throughout the year but are designed such that, in the long-term, the Company’s marketing funds are expected to break even.
Net Debt Leverage Ratio: Calculated by dividing total debt less cash and cash equivalents by trailing twelve months adjusted EBITDA.
RevPAR: Represents revenue per available franchised or managed/owned Room and is calculated by multiplying average occupancy rate by ADR.
Rooms: Represents the number of rooms at the end of the period which are (i) either under franchise and/or management agreements, excluding all rooms associated with the Company's Super 8 master licensee in China, (ii) Company-owned, and (iii) properties under affiliation agreements for which the Company receives a fee for reservation and/or other services provided.
Royalty Rate: Represents the average royalty rate earned on the Company's franchised Rooms and is calculated by dividing total royalties, excluding the impact of amortization of development advance notes, by total room revenues.
