Summary of Huazhu Group Conference Call Industry Overview - The hotel industry is expected to see cyclical improvement by 2026, with RevPAR (Revenue Per Available Room) decline narrowing each quarter, driven by a rebalancing of supply and demand and robust growth in leisure travel demand. Service consumption policies will also boost leisure travel demand [2][6]. - The business travel market is stabilizing, with occupancy rates (OCC) having bottomed out, indicating potential for recovery. The investment payback period has extended to approximately 5 years due to declining average room prices (RAP) and rents, with a forecasted decrease in new store openings in 2026 [2][8]. Company Insights: Huazhu Group - Huazhu has maintained a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of over 20% in store count and performance over the past 15 years, leveraging product iteration, standardized management, and strong member loyalty to create a unique growth flywheel. The company is actively expanding into the mid-to-high-end hotel sector, establishing a rich brand matrix [4][13]. - Huazhu's extensive store network and strong membership system allow it to reduce reliance on Online Travel Agencies (OTAs) in the short term, showcasing its operational strength. The company’s dual flywheel model, which links network scale and member traffic, provides a competitive advantage even in adverse conditions [5][7]. Competitive Positioning - Leading companies like Huazhu hold a market share of 15%-20% in key regions such as Shanghai, granting them pricing power. The strategy has shifted from focusing on occupancy rates to optimizing average room prices, which helps stabilize overall industry pricing [9]. - The hotel industry remains fragmented, but leading firms are transitioning to a strategy that balances occupancy and pricing, as evidenced by Huazhu achieving positive growth in average daily rates (ADR) in Q3 [9]. Long-term Growth Potential - The long-term outlook for China's accommodation industry is positive, with a trend of upward penetration. Comparatively, China's per capita GDP is nearing that of the U.S. in 1981, indicating a high proportion of disposable income spent on accommodation and leisure travel [10]. - The potential for chain hotel development is significant, with estimates suggesting that increasing the chain rate from 46% to 60%-70% could yield growth rates of 30%-50% for hotels with over 30 rooms [11][12]. Strategic Development in Mid-to-High-End Market - Huazhu currently operates over 1,000 mid-to-high-end hotels, with revenue per room significantly higher than that of economy hotels. The company aims to increase the number of mid-to-high-end hotels to over 3,000, which would surpass the share of economy hotels in its overall business [15]. - The company is also collaborating with Didi to attract high-quality business travelers and is expected to optimize product offerings in the mid-to-high-end sector [14]. Valuation and Market Position - Huazhu is projected to have a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 24-25 times by 2026, reflecting both industry recovery and the company's growth trajectory. The hotel sector in A-shares is currently experiencing marginal improvements, with leading companies like Shoulv and Jinjiang already showing positive changes [17]. - The overseas hotel groups benefit from a light-asset model that allows for valuation premiums, and Huazhu is expected to follow a similar path, transitioning from low-end to high-end offerings while ensuring stable cash flow and shareholder returns [16].
