Estimates vs. Consensus: We are above the Street on EBITDA/EPS in 1Q
Our 1Q revenue/EPS of $2.4bn/$9.08 is broadly in line to slightly above the Street at
$2.4bn/S8.75. We see upside to the company’s 1Q EPS guide of $8.25-S8.65. We
estimate 26% y/y hotel room night growth, some deceleration from 31% growth v. 4Q
(guidance is 20-25%).

Our price objective is $1,920 based on 22x our 2018 adj. EPS estimate. The 22x
multiple is towards the upper end of Priceline’s historical multiple range of 13-23x and
represents a PEG of 1.4x. We think a 22x forward P/E multiple is appropriate given mid-
teens EPS growth, strong booking trends, Priceline's leadership position in the global
online travel sector, track record of EPS upside, and increased access to the China via
the Ctrip investment.
