Citi analyst Ronald Josey has maintained a Hold rating on Trivago N.V. (NASDAQ:TRVG) with a price target of $3.80. Josey, who ranks in the top 100 analysts with an average return of 26.9% and a 63.64% success rate, has provided a cautious outlook on the company's stock. This rating comes amidst a mixed analyst sentiment, as TR | OpenAI – 4o’s Chloe Pagella also issued a Hold rating, while B.Riley Financial reiterated a Buy rating.

Trivago N.V., a subsidiary of Expedia Lodging Partner Services Sarl, operates a hotel and accommodation search platform in multiple countries. The company's stock has seen mixed performance recently, with a 51.8% increase from its January 2025 price of $2.18 to its current trading price of $3.31. Despite this growth, the company has faced challenges, including negative earnings and a high price-to-earnings ratio of -331.00 [1].

Josey's rating reflects the company's current financial position and the analyst's cautious outlook on future performance. The company's earnings are expected to grow from ($0.08) to $0.02 per share in the coming year, indicating a significant improvement but still a negative earnings situation [1]. Additionally, the company's price-to-book value ratio of 1.09 suggests that it is reasonably valued with respect to its assets and liabilities [1].

The Hold rating from Josey and Pagella is a cautious stance, reflecting the challenges faced by Trivago N.V. in recent quarters. The company's mixed analyst sentiment underscores the importance of monitoring its financial performance and market developments closely. Investors should remain vigilant and consider the company's fundamentals and the broader market context when making investment decisions.
