MHP Hotel AG: Record Q2 revenue as hotel platform scales
Yesterday, MHP released Q2 '26 hotel performance figures, posting the highest quarterly revenue in the company's history. In detail:
Q2 hotel sales increased 26% yoy to EUR 56.8m (eNuW: EUR 57.8m), driven by the continuous expansion of the portfolio, most notably the first full quarterly consolidation of the Hyatt Regency Vienna and the ongoing Conrad Hamburg ramp-up. Moreover, demand in the premium and luxury segment remains strong. Important to mention in this context: In FY25, middle-east customer accounted for only 2.5% of Logis sales, explaining the limited effect on MHP operations.
Growth was broad-based across segments: Logis sales rose 22% to EUR 42.9m while F&B sales again grew disproportionately at +41% yoy to EUR 12.5m, following +36% in Q1. The continued outperformance of the gastronomy and conference business confirms the structural build-out of revenue sources beyond the room business, a strength that plays well into the equity story given its brand-building character and reduced dependency on room rates.
KPI picture: Volume ahead, rates slightly softer. Occupancy came in at 79% (eNuW: 78.7%), or a strong 82% adjusted for the Conrad Hamburg ramp-up (+2pp yoy), underpinning the intact volume demand across the portfolio. Rates on the other hand fell short of our expectations as ADR declined to EUR 229 or EUR 225 adj. (eNuW: EUR 237; Q2'25: EUR 238) and RevPar to EUR 180 (EUR 184 adj; eNuW: EUR 186). The deviation is largely explained by two temporary effects: (1) the Conrad ramp-up during the seasonally weak start of the year in the Hamburg market and (2) a demand dip in April amid the geopolitical tensions in the Middle East.
Important to mention in this context: In FY25, middle-east customers accounted for only 2.5% of Logis sales, explaining the limited effect on MHP operations. Management also confirmed that April marked the trough of the FY26 demand development, with occupancy picking up clearly towards the end of Q2. That said, the Q2 rate development shows that the indirect sentiment effects were temporarily more visible than the limited direct exposure would suggest, which we regard as fully digestible given the swift occupancy recovery.
FY26 guidance confirmed. Management reiterated its outlook of c. EUR 225m sales (eNuW: EUR 227m) and > EUR 10m group EBITDA (eNuW: EUR 10.2m), driven by the first full-year contribution of the Conrad and the integration of the Hyatt Regency Vienna. Mind you, Q3 and Q4 are seasonally the strongest quarters, making the implied H2 top-line performance of EUR 127m or +28.2% yoy look achievable.
Overall, the release confirms the growth trajectory of the platform while the temporary rate softness does not alter the underlying investment case of a scaling, asset-light premium operator with strong cash conversion and a committed pipeline (Sheraton Vienna 2027, AC Stuttgart 2028, MOOONS Frankfurt 2029, AC Düsseldorf 2029).
Reiterate BUY with an unchanged PT of EUR 3.70 based on DCF.
