PPHE Hotel Group reported a like‑for‑like revenue increase of 4.7% to £208m for H1 2026 and like‑for‑like EBITDA of £49m (+8%) with a margin of 23.5%. Growth was driven by hotels in the UK; the Netherlands weighed on results following a VAT increase. The company bought back Park Plaza London Waterloo, which pushed net debt up to £932m, though management said the balance‑sheet effect was strengthening. The shares fell around 4.4%; management expects the second half to be in line with consensus for the full year. » Mere på de.investing.com

PPHE Hotel Group’s shares fell about 10% to 1,540p after a sales process that had lasted more than seven months ended without an agreement. A non-binding offer from Fattal Hotel Group of £22 per share failed because major shareholder Euro Plaza Holdings rejected it, and Fattal subsequently withdrew. With the takeover target gone, the premium that had been priced in since November 2025 evaporated, so the stock is being revalued as a standalone company without a near-term valuation catalyst. » Mere på de.investing.com

PPHE Hotel shares fell 19% to 1,620 pence after Fattal Hotel Group officially did not pursue its indicative cash offer of £22 per share. Reasons cited include resistance from Euro Plaza Holdings (around 33% of the shares) and the independent committee’s assessment that the offer in its current form was not deliverable. PPHE has continued a strategic review since November 2025; a preliminary indicative offer from an unnamed party is at a very early stage of review but is not sufficient to stop the selling pressure. » Mere på de.investing.com

PPHE Hotel Group reported an 8.0% revenue increase in the first quarter to 83.8 million pounds. RevPAR grew by 4.9% to 100.0 pounds, driven by a 4.6% higher average room rate (142.9 pounds) and a 20 basis-point improvement in occupancy (70.0%); the London portfolio performance was the main driver. The company sold a development site in New York for US$33.5 million and agreed to acquire Park Plaza London Waterloo for 147.9 million pounds, financed through a new credit facility; additionally, the art’otel Rome loan package was refinanced. The board expects full-year results in line with market expectations (revenue 472.8–489.0 million pounds, EBITDA 143.8–147.5 million pounds). » Mere på de.investing.com
