Marriott International, Inc.

Marriott International, Inc. is a US-based hotel company. Its shares trade on Nasdaq under the ticker MAR.

The company's portfolio includes many brands, such as The Ritz-Carlton, St. Regis and JW Marriott in the luxury segment and Marriott, Sheraton, Westin and Courtyard in the upper and middle segments. Rather than owning most hotels, the company manages them on behalf of hotel owners or licenses its brands through franchise agreements. As a result, its income consists mainly of management fees, franchise fees and incentive fees; this asset-light model limits the real estate burden on the balance sheet. The Marriott Bonvoy loyalty program and the co-branded credit cards linked to it are also important tools for income and customer loyalty.

For hotel companies, RevPAR (room income per available room), business and leisure travel demand, new hotel openings, corporate travel budgets and regional economic conditions are watched. The MAR page on Lzzo.com presents the price in US dollars; the Turkish lira, euro or pound sterling equivalent can also be seen. The page includes a historical price chart, technical indicators, the data source and the time of the last update.
