RateGain Travel Tech: Why analysts are bullish on this stock The company processes electronic transactions and pricing data in the travel and hospitality sectors by leveraging artificial intelligence. It offers advanced tools that help companies in various sectors including hotels, airlines, car rentals, and online travel agents. It is a beneficiary of the growing travel sector, which is supported by rising incomes in Asia-Pacific economies, increased consumer spending, deeper penetration of online booking systems, technological advancements and remote work
The travel and hotel software company reported revenue and EBITDA growth of 21% and 31.7% year-on-year respectively in the June quarter led by strong performance of DaaS (Data as a Service) and MarTech (Marketing Technology) segments. However, it missed analysts’ estimates due to softness in the distribution segment, slow deal closures and demand challenges in North America. Both revenue and EBITDA fell short of Reuters-Refinitiv estimates by 1.3% and 6.4% respectively.#sr_widget.onDemand p, #stock_pro.onDemand p{font-size: 14px;line-height: 1.28;} .onDemand .live_stock{left:17px;padding:1px 3px 1px 5px;font-size:12px;font-weight:600;line-height:18px;top:9px} #sr_widget.onDemand .sr_desc{margin:0 auto 0;} #sr_widget.onDemand .sr_desc{color: #024d99;margin-top:10px;} #sr_widget.onDemand .crypto .live_stock .lb-icon{8px 6px 5px 3px !important} #sr_widget.crypto.onDemand a.text{border-bottom:1px solid #ccc;padding-bottom:5px;display:block;width:100%} #sr_widget.onDemand .sr_desc .text p, #stock_pro.onDemand .sr_desc .text p{font-size:12px;font-weight:400;} While the distribution segment registered a muted growth of 3.1% year-on-year, DaaS and MarTech segments registered 17.7% and 33% growth on a year-on-year basis. New client additions aided the former, and paid digital marketing supported the latter.
The company processes electronic transactions and pricing data in the travel and hospitality sectors by leveraging artificial intelligence. It offers advanced tools that help companies in various sectors including hotels, airlines, car rentals, and online travel agents. It is a beneficiary of the growing travel sector, which is supported by rising incomes in Asia-Pacific economies, increased consumer spending, deeper penetration of online booking systems, technological advancements and remote work.
All three business verticals of the company have decent growth prospects. DaaS is driven by a strong traction across OTAs, airlines and car rentals and strong volume demand in the enterprise accounts. On the other hand, increased traction in PDM (paid digital marketing) offerings with hotel chains across Europe and APAC regions and healthy deal closure are driving the MarTech segment. Though the distribution segment growth is seeing volume pressure on some demand channels, the management is optimistic about a growth rebound led by integrated offerings.

Multiple verticals provides it insulation from short-term market fluctuations.
Selection methodology: We pick the stock that has shown the maximum increase in ‘consensus analyst rating’ during the past three months. The consensus rating is arrived at by averaging all analyst recommendations after attributing weights to each of them (1 for strong buy, 2 for buy, 3 for hold, 4 for sell, 5 for strong sell). An improvement in consensus analyst rating indicates that the analysts are getting bullish on the stock. Only stocks with more than five analysts covering them are considered. You can see similar consensus analyst rating changes during the past week in ETW 50 table.
