Melia Hotels (ISIN ES0176252718) was trading at EUR 10.33 at Lang & Schwarz on September 30, 2026 at 11:19 a.m. CEST, up 1.77 percent versus the prior close of EUR 10.15. The latest reported signal is the first-half result published on July 31, 2026, with revenue growth but a loss after a major Cuba-related charge, according to MarketScreener.

First-half revenue reaches EUR 1.05 billion

Melia Hotels generated EUR 1.05 billion in first-half 2026 revenue, compared with EUR 1.048 billion expected in the same MarketScreener data. EBITDA reached EUR 277.0 million versus EUR 242.0 million forecast, giving the operating result a stronger profile than the headline earnings figure.

The comparison matters because the company is targeting at least EUR 565.0 million of full-year EBITDA for 2026. The first-half EBITDA figure represents nearly half of that target, while the revenue result points to continued demand across the hotel portfolio.

Cuba charge changes the earnings picture

Net income swung to a EUR 7.5 million loss in the first half from a EUR 75.4 million profit a year earlier. Expansion reported that the result reflected a provision of nearly EUR 80.0 million linked to the company's exit from Cuba, while adjusted net income excluding that impact was EUR 83.5 million.

For investors, the figures separate operating momentum from one-off balance-sheet pressure. Revenue and EBITDA advanced, but the Cuba provision pushed statutory earnings sharply below the prior-year comparison.

Third-quarter results due October 29

Melia Hotels is scheduled to publish its third-quarter results on October 29, 2026, according to MarketScreener. Investing.com identifies the Madrid-listed stock under ticker MEL and gives an average 12-month analyst price target of EUR 11.36, although that target is separate from the company's reported operating figures.

Stock sits 17.56 percent below high

Melia Hotels was trading at EUR 10.33 at Lang & Schwarz on September 30, 2026 at 11:19 a.m. CEST, up 1.77 percent versus the prior close of EUR 10.15. Its EUR 2.3 billion market capitalization and EUR 6.74 to EUR 12.53 52-week range place the current price 17.56 percent below the yearly high.
