Expedia Group (EXPE) Stock Price, Fundamentals & Analysis

What EXPE does

Expedia Group (EXPE) is a US-based online travel company that operates through three segments: B2C, B2B, and trivago. The B2C segment includes brands such as Brand Expedia, Hotels.com, Vrbo, Orbitz, Travelocity, ebookers, and Wotif Group, offering a range of travel products and services directly to consumers. The B2B segment provides travel and non-travel companies — including airlines, offline travel agents, online retailers, corporate travel managers, and financial institutions — with technology and access to Expedia Group’s rates and availabilities. The trivago segment generates referrals by sending traffic from hotel metasearch websites to online travel companies and service providers.

Key numbers explained

• The current price of 259.04 USD reflects what investors pay for one share today.
• The trailing P/E ratio of 16.3 shows the price paid per dollar of the last 12 months of earnings; a lower figure can suggest a cheaper valuation relative to recent earnings.
• The forward P/E ratio of 10.6 uses expected future earnings, often giving a sense of how the market prices in growth.
• The dividend yield of 0.68% indicates the annual dividend as a percentage of the share price; for context, Carvana (CVNA) and Hasbro (HAS) are other names investors sometimes compare in the broader consumer space.
• The debt-to-equity ratio of 230.3% means the company carries more than twice its equity in debt, which is common in capital-intensive industries.
• The return on equity of 89.5% measures how effectively the company generates profit from shareholders’ equity.
• The price-to-book ratio of 25.71 compares the market price to the company’s book value per share, often used to assess whether a stock trades at a premium to its accounting value.
• The beta of 1.25 suggests the stock tends to move about 25% more than the overall market, making it more volatile than the average S&P 500 component.

Recent news

Recent headlines indicate that Expedia (EXPE) stock traded down, with one article specifically asking why EXPE shares fell and another noting that Expedia was among the worst performers in the S&P 500, blaming Meta’s Muse AI agent for the broader selloff. Other stories mention that Meta’s rally into its Connect conference and the Muse AI agent were sending some stocks lower, while separate pieces covered declines in LendingTree (TREE) and Airbnb (ABNB).

What to watch

Investors tracking EXPE often look at travel demand trends, foreign exchange impacts on international bookings, competitive pressure from peers such as Airbnb (ABNB), and broader market sentiment — for example, movements in the S&P 500. Regulatory changes in online travel and advertising, as well as shifts in consumer spending on leisure and business travel, can also affect the stock. The company’s upcoming earnings report on Nov 5, 2026 will be a key date for updated financials.
