Hilton price target raised to $209 from $199 at Truist

Truist analyst C. Patrick Scholes raised the firm’s price target on Hilton to $209 from $199 and keeps a Hold rating on the shares after its Q1 earnings beat. The company reported “powerful” earnings earnings growth in spite of the “choppy” RevPAR macro backdrop, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Truist adds however that while it continues to view Hilton’s business model as among the best-in-class, it is retaining its Hold rating as it sees the stock being “fairly valued at a premium valuation”.
