Xenia Hotels & Resorts reported strong portfolio performance, leading to two upward revisions in its financial guidance and consistent outperformance expected through 2026. The stock has rallied 26%, narrowing its valuation gap compared to the sector median, currently trading at 9.5 times its FY26 AFFO guidance. The company maintains a conservative balance sheet with $612 million in liquidity and no near-term debt concerns, while improving dividend coverage with a 28.6% payout ratio. The analyst retains a Buy rating with a revised price target of $22 per share, reflecting ongoing operational strength but less deep-value upside than before.
