Xenia Hotels & Resorts' Profit Margin Boosted by One-Time Gain, Raises Questions on Sustainability

Xenia Hotels & Resorts posted a net profit margin of 5.2%, a significant increase from last year's 2.3%. The results reflect a one-off $39M gain, but the sustainability of margins is under scrutiny given the non-recurring nature of recent profits and a slower long-term growth projection. Revenue growth is expected to lag the US market with a muted 2.8% per year outlook, and earnings are projected to decline 61.9% per year over the next three years.
