Host Hotels & Resorts stock (ISIN US44107P1049) closed at USD 22.56 on Nasdaq on October 2, 2026, while the hotel REIT prepared a USD 0.20 quarterly dividend for October 15. The payment follows second-quarter revenue of USD 1.64 billion and full-year adjusted funds from operations guidance of USD 2.15-2.18 per share.

Dividend sets the immediate date

According to GlobeNewswire on September 15, 2026, Host Hotels & Resorts authorized the regular dividend for the third quarter. The company will pay USD 0.20 per share on October 15, 2026, to holders of record as of September 30, 2026.

The dividend is the clearest near-term cash-return marker for the stock. At USD 22.56, the annualized USD 0.80 payout corresponds to a 3.55 percent yield before any change in the share price.

Second-quarter growth supports guidance

Yahoo Finance reported that second-quarter 2026 adjusted funds from operations reached USD 0.63 per share, above the USD 0.62 consensus, while revenue rose 3.4 percent year over year to USD 1.64 billion. Comparable hotel RevPAR increased 7 percent to USD 251.53, showing that room pricing and group demand remained central to the operating result.

The same report said Host Hotels raised its 2026 comparable hotel RevPAR growth guidance to 4.75-5.25 percent and lifted adjusted EBITDAre guidance to USD 1.82-1.84 billion. The key investor question is whether that operating growth can offset the capital burden from planned spending of USD 550-630 million in 2026.
