Booking Holdings Inc. · BKNG · NASDAQ · Consumer Cyclical · Travel Services
Research dated 2026-09-12: Booking Holdings connects travelers and diners with accommodations, flights, rental cars, restaurants and related services through brands including Booking.com, Priceline, Agoda, KAYAK and OpenTable. Its economics come mainly from merchant and agency transactions rather than hotel ownership, with merchant revenue forming the larger reported stream. Room nights and gross bookings now provide the key test of whether the portfolio can keep expanding revenue and cash generation while airline capacity and ticket-price pressure affect travel demand.

What is Booking Holdings (BKNG), and what does it report?
Short answer · as of
Booking.com and Agoda center on accommodations while extending into adjacent travel products; Priceline spans hotels, flights, cars, packages and cruises; KAYAK compares travel prices; and OpenTable handles restaurant reservations and management tools.
Research dated 2026-09-12.
Booking.com and Agoda center on accommodations while extending into adjacent travel products; Priceline spans hotels, flights, cars, packages and cruises; KAYAK compares travel prices; and OpenTable handles restaurant reservations and management tools. The company therefore sells digital access, transaction facilitation, distribution and related services across travel and dining, not stays in properties it operates.
Reported revenue is divided among merchant, agency, advertising and other streams, with merchant transactions contributing the largest share. Gross profit matches revenue throughout the disclosed quarterly series, so selling and administrative expense carries much of the visible operating cost burden.
What do the latest results show for Booking Holdings (BKNG)?
Short answer · as of
The most recent reported quarter, Q2 FY2026, carried revenue of $7.35B.
Research dated 2026-09-12.
In the latest comparable period, revenue and operating profit advanced, while net income increased much faster. Revenue and earnings each exceeded market estimates, continuing a run in which reported revenue repeatedly came in above expectations.
Management said room nights, gross bookings, revenue and adjusted operating cash earnings surpassed the upper end of its guidance. Its ensuing outlook called for continued growth at a more measured pace and assumed that indirect pressure on airline capacity and ticket prices would persist through the approaching reporting period.
The longer annual record is less uniform: revenue continued rising, but the latest annual net result retreated from the prior peak. That divergence makes profit conversion as important as booking growth.
Where is operating spending going?
Revenue alongside research and development, selling, general and administrative expenses, and the FMP standardized operating result.

What are the financial strengths and risks for Booking Holdings (BKNG)?
Short answer
Cash and short-term investments were $17.21B at the Jun 30, 2026 balance-sheet date. Operating cash flow was $3.72B for the quarter ended Jun 30, 2026, meaning operations generated cash. These figures do not establish a cash runway.
Research dated 2026-09-12.
Operating cash flow is substantial and recurring, while capital expenditure remains small beside it. That combination fits a digital reservation portfolio whose reported revenue does not require building hotels, aircraft or rental fleets.
Cash and investments nearly offset total debt but do not fully cover it, leaving a net debt position. Liquidity has remained broadly resilient across the reported history, and near-term assets modestly exceed near-term obligations.
Negative reported equity makes conventional equity-based leverage and return measures difficult to interpret in the usual way. The more direct operating risk is a slowdown in travel transactions: weaker room nights, constrained airline capacity or unfavorable ticket prices can reduce activity flowing through several brands at once.
How much cash does the business generate or use?
Quarterly operating cash flow shows cash generated or used by operations.

What should you watch next at Booking Holdings (BKNG)?
Short answer · as of
The next earnings report is expected on Oct 27, 2026.
Research dated 2026-09-12.
The approaching results should be judged against management’s own operating markers: room nights, gross bookings, revenue and adjusted operating cash earnings. A result within the stated growth ranges would support continued expansion, while a shortfall across several of those measures would point to softer transaction momentum rather than an accounting-only fluctuation.
Airline capacity and flight prices deserve separate attention because management built their indirect effects into its assumptions. Evidence that those pressures are easing would remove a stated restraint; persistence beyond the assumed window would keep pressure on the wider travel funnel.
Revenue growth should also be checked against operating profit, net income and operating cash flow. The annual record shows that higher sales need not produce a higher net result, while the quarterly cash series shows why cash conversion remains central to the financial profile.
What management is planning
Management expectations, not completed milestones or guarantees. Selected verbatim excerpts; dates follow the transcript provider.
We currently expect third quarter room nights to increase between 3% and 5% and for gross bookings, revenue and adjusted EBITDA to each increase between 4% and 6%.

Room nights, gross bookings, revenue and adjusted EBITDA all exceeded the high end of our guidance for the second quarter.

But as we said, we still expect that the indirect impact, particularly on airline capacity and flight ticket prices will continue until the end of the third quarter in our assumptions and guidance.

How does Booking Holdings compare with its peers?
Short answer
Booking Holdings's score ranks 2nd of 13 in the bounded comparison shown, against 12 same-model peers. These are company scores, not expected investment returns. The set lists named competitors first, then companies in the same data-provider industry classification closest in market value; that classification is the provider's, not our judgment of business similarity.
Research dated 2026-09-12.
Booking Holdings combines transaction platforms, travel comparison and restaurant technology within the same corporate portfolio. Booking.com, Agoda and Priceline participate directly in travel reservations; KAYAK sits earlier in the search process; and OpenTable reaches restaurant guests and operators outside the lodging transaction.
That breadth differs from a pure metasearch service, an agency-only marketplace or a narrowly focused accommodation platform. Merchant revenue dominates the reported mix, but agency fees and advertising remain meaningful, giving Booking Holdings several monetization paths across a traveler’s planning and booking journey.

What has been published about Booking Holdings (BKNG)?
BKNG Consumer Cyclical Stock FAQ
Research dated 2026-09-12; the answers below are from that research, and the full attribution is under Sources. The last 3 questions are answered from this page's own dated data, not from the research.
Why is merchant revenue so important to Booking Holdings?
Merchant revenue is the company’s largest reported stream, well ahead of agency revenue and advertising or other income. Its movement therefore has an outsized influence on the shape of consolidated revenue.
What does Priceline add beyond Booking.com?
Priceline broadens the portfolio beyond accommodation bookings through flights, rental cars, vacation packages, cruises and hotel distribution services. Booking.com remains centered on online accommodation reservations.
How do KAYAK and OpenTable fit alongside Booking.com?
KAYAK helps travelers compare prices before booking, while OpenTable serves restaurant reservations and management needs. They extend Booking Holdings into travel discovery and dining rather than duplicating Booking.com’s accommodation focus.
Why can airline capacity pressure matter to Booking Holdings?
Flights sit within the wider travel journey served by Priceline, Agoda and KAYAK, so changes in capacity and ticket prices can indirectly affect traveler activity across the portfolio. Management explicitly incorporated that pressure into its outlook assumptions.

Known dates and sources are recorded on their own rows; an em dash or UNRECORDED tier preserves a stored observation without inventing either. The quarterly income statement is provider-standardized (FMP) under one row, and scale definitions — a 0-100 rating, the band ladder, the Piotroski 0–9 range — are fixed rather than measured.
