Expedia Group Inc. beat Wall Street expectations for the second quarter of 2025 and lifted its full-year outlook as momentum in its business-to-business and advertising segments offset pockets of softness in the U.S. leisure market. Revenue rose 6% from a year earlier to $3.79 billion, topping the $3.71 billion analysts projected. Gross bookings increased to $30.41 billion, while net income reached $330 million, or $2.48 a share. On an adjusted basis, earnings per share climbed to $4.24, ahead of roughly $4.10 expected, and adjusted EBITDA grew to $908 million. Chief Executive Officer Peter Kern said continued demand from U.S. travelers and expanding enterprise partnerships underpinned the results, prompting management to raise its 2025 sales forecast. Investors welcomed the update, driving the stock up about 14% in after-hours trading.
