Kopelman commented, "Q3 room nights were +28% y/y organic, same as Q2 growth, as hotel supply, repeat customers, conversion, & ad spend drove growth. EBITDA was +17% ex-Orbitz & now expected at +15% for FY15, vs. 10-15% previously. Management surprised by announcing 'meaningful upside' to original Orbitz exp. synergies of $75M, phased in throughout FY16. Raising price target from $150 to $160 on higher profitability."
