MAR Consumer Discretionary 2 recaps
Q1 2026 May 7, 2026

Marriott’s stock declined modestly by 0.8% following the Q1 2026 earnings report, reflecting investor caution despite modest RevPAR growth and a raised full-year guidance, likely due to ongoing geopolitical risks and a cautious outlook on regional performance.

  • Global RevPAR increased 4.2% year-over-year, with the U.S. and Canada up 4%, led by nearly 7% growth in luxury and 3.5% in select service segments.
  • International RevPAR rose 4.6%, driven by strong increases in APAC (+7%) and Greater China (nearly +6%), offset partly by Middle East weakness where March RevPAR fell over 30%.
