Melia 1H26 results: FY guidance reiterated, in line with

expectactions

Meliá’s 1H26 results, published this evening, confirmed the trajectory outlined at the Nice Conference (link). The group

appetite for Mexico amid security-related concerns and by the geopolitical situation in Cuba, which ultimately led the group to

permanently exit the country. The group has continued to focus on asset enhancement and hotel repositioning, notably across flagship

properties such as the Paradisus Cancun in Mexico, which reopened in April, and the Gran Meliá Don Pepe in Marbella, which is expected

to reopen in 4Q. We reiterate our Outperform rating.

1H26 RevPAR up 5.6% yoy, excluding Cuba exit. On a reported basis, RevPAR grew 11.7% yoy, largely driven by the reduction in available
