Comment from the CEO
- Strong rebound with improved margins
"Although fragile and coming from a low base, the recovery is now evident across all our geographic segments. A further strengthening of demand led to a solid RevPAR growth in our key markets, notably Sweden, Germany, France, Belgium and the Netherlands. For the first time in two years, room rates increased, which contributed to the acceleration in RevPAR growth.
The quarter showed a robust increase in margins driven by a combination of strong RevPAR development and our operational gearing. Our efforts were also focused on maintaining the existing cost base, which has benefitted from our cost savings programme.
The growth in Emerging Markets is paying off in terms of a significant EBITDA contribution from those markets in the third quarter. We have maintained our growth pace throughout the downturn, opening over 18,000 rooms since the second quarter of 2008 as well as improving the overall quality of our contract mix."
Kurt Ritter, President & CEO
