Airbnb saw results soar in the latest quarter, buoyed by
sustained travel demand around the world and a tax benefit.
The home-sharing company logged net income of $4.37 billion, or
$6.63 a share, for the third quarter ended Sept. 30, up from $1.21
billion, or $1.79 a share, a year earlier. Analysts polled by
FactSet expected earnings of $2.11 a share.
The San Francisco-based company noted that net income in the
quarter included a $2.8 billion one-time income tax benefit due to
a release of a valuation allowance on certain of its deferred tax
assets. Adjusted net income was $1.6 billion excluding the benefit
of the one-time item.
Revenue surged to $3.4 billion from $2.88 billion. Analysts
polled by FactSet expected $3.37 billion.
Airbnb said revenue grew on growth on bookings in nights and
experiences, or activities reserved through the platform, and a
tailwind from foreign exchange.
