Marriott International (ISIN US5719032022) was trading at EUR 316.30 at Lang & Schwarz on October 2, 2026 at 1:33 p.m. CEST, up 0.23 percent versus the prior close of EUR 315.58. According to MarketBeat on September 11, 2026, TD Cowen upgraded Marriott International to Strong Buy.
TD Cowen changes the rating
The upgrade follows Marriott's second-quarter performance, where adjusted earnings per share reached USD 3.19, compared with USD 3.08 consensus. That USD 0.11 difference gives the rating change a measurable earnings backdrop rather than a purely technical signal.
MarketBeat reported that Marriott raised full-year 2026 earnings-per-share guidance to USD 11.64-11.81 and set third-quarter guidance at USD 2.74-2.82. The same report said quarterly revenue rose 4.80 percent year over year to USD 2.01 billion.
Fee growth adds to the case
Marriott's second-quarter call showed the operating drivers behind the earnings result. Yahoo Finance reported global RevPAR growth of 3.40 percent, while U.S. and Canada RevPAR increased 5.00 percent in the second quarter of 2026.
The call also showed adjusted EBITDA rising 13.00 percent year over year to USD 1.59 billion, while adjusted diluted earnings per share increased 20.00 percent to USD 3.19. Management raised full-year global RevPAR growth guidance to 3.00-3.50 percent, although Middle East weakness remains a quantified counter-factor within the regional outlook.
Stock stays below its yearly high
At USD 354.79 on the Nasdaq on October 1, 2026, Marriott's primary-market quote was below its 52-week high of USD 410.98 and above its 52-week low of USD 256.76. The Lang & Schwarz euro quote is a separate German-market reference, so the USD range is not used to calculate a euro distance.
Yahoo Finance lists November 3, 2026 as Marriott's next earnings date. The company therefore enters the next reporting checkpoint with updated full-year guidance, a recent rating upgrade and a 0.23 percent same-day gain in the euro reference quote.
