AI Analysis

I approach this as a value investor, not a hotel cheerleader. Apple Hospitality owns 216 upscale, rooms-focused hotels with roughly 29,500 rooms in 83 markets, heavily branded Hilton and Marriott. That scale and brand mix give it a modest edge, but hotel rooms are still a commodity business with cyclical demand and limited pricing power. The filed record is mixed. Fiscal 2025, the year ended 2025-12-31, produced $1.4B revenue and $175.4M net income, or $0.74 diluted EPS, down from fiscal 2024's $214.1M net income and $0.89 EPS, though above fiscal 2023's $177.5M net income and $0.77 EPS. In fiscal Q2 2026, the quarter ended 2026-06-30, revenue was $402.6M and net income $67.1M, or $0.28 EPS, versus fiscal Q2 2025 revenue of $384.4M and net income of $63.6M, or $0.27 EPS. So the recent quarter improved, but annual profits are lumpy. For a REIT, depreciation distorts EPS and P/E. FFO/AFFO are the right measures, and they are not in this data, so I lean on dividend yield, leverage, revenue trend, and price-to-book. At the 2026-10-13 close of $16.55, FairStock shows P/B 1.24, dividend yield 6.16%, D/E 0.51, FCF yield 7.4%, Piotroski 8/9, Altman Z 1.03, PEG 4.15, and EV/EBITDA 12.13. The yield and book value look reasonable; the Altman score and PEG warn that the stock is not statistically cheap. FairStock calls it a Fast Grower based on 74.7% four-year profit growth and 10.9% revenue growth, but filed results show uneven hotel-cycle earnings. I see fair value, not a fat pitch.

In plain English: Apple Hospitality owns upscale hotels across the U.S., mostly under Hilton and Marriott brands. The business is profitable and pays a high dividend, but travel demand rises and falls, and annual profits have moved up and down. At $16.55, the price looks roughly fair to modestly cheap compared with the company's book value and cash flow, but not an obvious bargain.
