DiamondRock Reports Q2 Revenue of $316.6M, Increases Quarterly Dividend by Over 20%

Reports Q2 revenue $ 316.6M, consensus $314.98M. "Our Q2 demonstrated the earnings power of the DiamondRock portfolio. We delivered 7% RevPAR growth and held overall hotel expense growth to just 1.8%, driving exceptional margin expansion and earnings growth. While the World Cup provided a beneficial tailwind in several markets, our performance reflected much more than a single event. We saw broad-based strength in both group and transient demand, demonstrating the quality of our portfolio and the effectiveness of our operating strategy. Over the past twelve months, our free cash flow has increased 30%, providing further evidence that the DiamondRock 2.0 strategy is delivering results. Our focus remains on growing free cash flow through operational excellence, disciplined investment, and thoughtful capital allocation, which we believe is the clearest path to creating long-term shareholder value. Given the strength of our Q2 results and our confidence in the outlook for the remainder of the year, we are increasing our quarterly common dividend by more than 20% and raising our full-year guidance. We believe DiamondRock is well positioned to continue delivering strong earnings, growing free cash flow, and creating long-term value for our shareholders."
