Why the gap?

At $160.65 the market is pricing Airbnb, Inc. as if revenue grows 26.9% a year. This valuation assumes it grows 11.6% a year. That single disagreement accounts for most of the distance between the two numbers — which makes it the first thing worth auditing.

What drives the base case

All three cases →

After growth slowed steadily from 18% in 2023 to 10% in 2025, Airbnb reaccelerated to about 17% in the first half of 2026 and management raised its outlook for the year to at least mid-teens growth with better profitability. Part of that lift is a weaker dollar and higher nightly prices, since actual nights booked rose 10%, so this case assumes growth eases back toward high single digits over five years. Newer lines like hotels and experiences cushion the slowdown as the core homes business matures. Profit per dollar of sales improves somewhat, helped by the company's disclosure that AI now handles nearly half of customer-support issues and support cost per booking fell about 16%.
