“Expedia Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:EXPE) experienced a digestion period in the first quarter, declining 9.3% and giving back some of its gains from its very strong fourth quarter. The company entered 2024 with a clean slate having successfully completed their tech transition, rolled out their unified loyalty program, and began to reinvest advertising dollars. With the initiation of a $5B buyback program in November (26% of shares outstanding), the company continues to focus on returning cash to shareholders, buying back 11% of shares over the last year. As the company continues to execute, we believe the market will eventually give them credit for their improved fundamentals.”
