Recent News

"Choice Hotels was highly active in 2024 and 2025, marked by its ultimately unsuccessful attempt to acquire Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, which was scrapped in March 2024. The company has focused on significant international growth, particularly in Europe, Middle East, and Africa, and has seen strong development in its domestic extended-stay segment. Financial results for 2025 showed record-breaking adjusted diluted EPS. The company also faced legal challenges related to human trafficking claims against hotel franchisors."
