Most Popular Narrative: 14% Undervalued

Against Travel + Leisure’s last close of $75.52, the most followed narrative puts fair value at $87.31, which implies meaningful upside before the story and the price line up. That gap rests on how recurring income, new brands, and capital returns work together over the next few years.

The expansion into new brands such as Margaritaville, Accor Vacation Club, Sports Illustrated Resorts, and Eddie Bauer Adventure Club is now contributing VOI sales that are on track to approach 10% of 2026 sales, with Margaritaville expected around US$150 million and Accor nearly doubling, which can widen Travel + Leisure's addressable customer base and support future revenue growth.

The growing contribution from resort portfolio upgrades, including the removal of 17 older resorts and the addition of 23 higher-demand properties from recent deals, is expected to support higher occupancy and pricing power, which can provide an ongoing lift to EBITDA margins as the mix shifts toward more profitable locations.
