Citi projects Whitbread PLC's adjusted pre-tax profit for the first half of the financial year ending February 2027 to be 4.2% above market consensus, supported by slightly higher revenue and favorable cost timing between the UK and Germany.

A key risk is the potential increase in UK hotel supply if hotels previously used for asylum-seeker accommodation return to public use in the latter half of the year.
