1/ Odd day. Sen. passes bill on housing and RESTAURANTS. No tax on tips/ no tax on overtime pay. Powell also not ruling out cuts and restaurant stocks ripping. Overhang at $PAR has been strength of their end market / customer. Today everything got better... @SavneetS @PAR_Tech

$EXPE has always been a much slower grower than $BKNG, won't be surprised if it's a fav pair trade of hedge fund (long booking, short expe). Over the years though Expedia has been going through internal changes, sold some businesses (Egencia to AmEx travel and few other sites), went through a technology transformation for internal sites (Expedia, https://t.co/ap3OIandej, Vrbo). 50% improvement in operating margin since 2019. But not as profitable as Booking (operating margin at 12% vs 32% for bkng). Mainly a US focused player (unlike bkng) with a very strong B2B segment that's growing mid teens and about 30% of total revenue), now looking to expand internationally. To be seen if that would drive higher margin given the much fragmented hotel market internationally vs US. Bkng on the other hand seeing revenue growth slowing down to high single digit and mid teens eps growth with margins declining since 2019. Expedia needs to show higher top line growth but possible still delivers mid teens eps growth. Travel is cyclical but these OTA are very robust, they saw revenue growth even in the financial crisis, as more ppl look for deals. AI is an unknown, Expedia is embracing it. Finding a hotel with the right deal is not same as getting an answer to a question from LLM, distribution/platform should remain valuable. Interesting to see how the pieces fall for Expedia, PEG < 1 and these multiples should atleast provide downside protection

At ~1400 units, DENN could also adopt payments and POS if the KEKE rollout goes well. Table serve is highly lucrative and produces ARPU many multiples of a traditional QSR store. @SavneetS @PAR_Tech $PAR $DENN

https://t.co/eYw2cld5pU More than meets the eye here. KEKE is owned by DENNY's - once a PUNCHH cust. PAR has mentioned that several PUNCHH custs. are returning and we understand $DENN is one of them. Table serv. , POS, Payment, lot to like here. @SavneetS @PAR_Tech $PAR $DENN
