Booking (BKNG) Q2 EPS Jumps 32%
Booking Holdings (NASDAQ:BKNG), known for its global portfolio of online travel brands, released second quarter 2025 results on July 29, 2025. The biggest news: the company outperformed expectations for both adjusted earnings (non-GAAP) and revenue (GAAP), reporting adjusted earnings per share (EPS) of $55.40 against estimates of $50.32, and GAAP revenue of $6.8 billion versus an expected $6.55 billion. While adjusted profit and revenue were up strongly from the prior year, headline net income and GAAP EPS dropped, reflecting large negative impacts from foreign currency changes and higher interest expenses. Overall, it was a quarter of robust operating growth and strong cash generation, but with notable pressure on reported profitability caused by external financial factors.
