PPHE Hotel Group granted Co-CEO Greg Hegarty and CFO Daniel Kos options on 12,000 ordinary shares each under the PPHE Executive Incentive Plan 2020 in settlement of their annual bonuses. Hegarty partially exercised and immediately converted 6,000 shares, while Kos exercised his full option of 12,000 shares immediately after allocation. The transactions took place in London; the ordinary shares are traded under the code GG00B1Z5FH87/PPH. The disclosure was made in accordance with the EU Market Abuse Regulation for persons discharging managerial responsibilities. » Plus sur de.investing.com

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. » Plus sur 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. » Plus sur de.investing.com
