Here's a summary of the text within 400 words, followed by a German translation:
**Summary (English)**
InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) has decided to move forward with its 2025 Directors’ Remuneration Policy despite receiving less than 80% shareholder approval at its May AGM. The policy garnered 69.5% support, falling short of the crucial threshold. Following this initial result, IHG undertook extensive consultations with its largest shareholders, engaging directly with nearly 60% of its equity and key proxy advisory firms.
The primary concerns raised by dissenting shareholders focused on the proposed remuneration levels and the company’s benchmark against its global peer group. However, the Remuneration Committee strongly defended its approach, arguing that the chosen benchmark was appropriate given IHG’s “large, high growth and global business” and the necessity for compensation commensurate with this scale.
Notably, those shareholders who relied on proxy advisory services voted against the resolutions, but direct engagement with IHG led to a majority in favor. IHG plans to provide a detailed explanation of its decision-making process within the 2025 Remuneration Report and pledged to continue “regularly reviewing our remuneration arrangements and maintaining open communication” with shareholders and proxy advisors.
The announcement was made via a regulatory filing with the London Stock Exchange (LSEG). The company is committed to transparency and ongoing dialogue regarding its executive compensation strategy.

**London – InterContinental Hotels Group PLC (LSE:IHG) gab am Mittwoch bekannt, dass es fortfahren wird mit seiner Vergütungspolitik für Direktoren 2025, trotz weniger als 80%iger Zustimmung der Aktionäre auf seiner Mai-Hauptversammlung.**
Die Politik erhielt 69,5% der Stimmen, was unter der entscheidenden Schwelle lag. Nach diesem ersten Ergebnis unternahm IHG umfangreiche Konsultationen mit seinen größten Aktionären und engagierte sich direkt mit fast 60% des Unternehmenskapitals sowie den wichtigsten Proxy-Beratungsunternehmen.
Die Hauptbedenken der abweichenden Aktionäre konzentrierten sich auf die vorgeschlagenen Vergütungshöhen und den Vergleich mit der globalen Wettbewerbergruppe. Dennoch verteidigte der Vergütungsausschuss seinen Ansatz, argumentierend, dass die gewählte Vergleichsgruppe angesichts des “großen, schnell wachsenden und globalen Geschäfts” von IHG sowie der Notwendigkeit einer angemessenen Entschädigung für ein solches Unternehmen geeignet sei.
Es ist bemerkenswert, dass diejenigen Aktionäre, die sich auf Proxy-Beratungsdienstleister verließen, gegen die Resolutionen stimmten, aber die direkte Interaktion mit IHG zu einer Mehrheit für die Resolutionen führte. IHG plant, eine detaillierte Erklärung des Entscheidungsprozesses im Vergütungsbericht 2025 zu veröffentlichen und zusicherte, “unsere Vergütungsvereinbarungen regelmäßig zu überprüfen und eine offene Kommunikation” mit Aktionären und Proxy-Beratern zu pflegen.
Die Bekanntmachung erfolgte über eine regulatorische Mitteilung an die London Stock Exchange (LON:LSEG). |

Hier eine 400-Wörter-Zusammenfassung der InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) 1H 2025 Ergebnisse, die sich auf wichtige Rücksichten und Investitionsüberlegungen konzentriert:
**IHG zeigt starkes Profitwachstum trotz Umsatz Miss**
InterContinental Die Hotels Group (IHG) lieferte im ersten Halbjahr 2025 beeindruckende Finanzergebnisse, was ein deutliches Gewinnwachstum beweist. Der Umsatz erreichte 2,52 Milliarden US-Dollar, was einem Anstieg von 8,5% gegenüber dem Vorjahr entspricht, was durch eine höhere Gesamtrentabilität bedingt ist. Das Nettoeinkommen stieg um 35 % auf 469,0 Mio. US$ und die Gewinnspanne stieg von 15 % im Vorjahr auf 19 %. Das Ergebnis pro Aktie (EPS) übertraf auch die Erwartungen, die sich um 25% auf 3,00 US$ erhöhten. Diese Leistung wurde durch eine robuste Steigerung der Gesamtrentabilität begünstigt.
**Future Outlook stellt Herausforderungen* *
Trotz des aktuellen Erfolgs ist der Ausblick des Unternehmens nicht ohne Bedenken. Analysten projizieren in den nächsten drei Jahren einen Umsatzrückgang für die IHG und prognostizieren einen durchschnittlichen Rückgang von 12 % jährlich. Dies steht im Gegensatz zur breiteren britischen Gastfreundschaftsbranche, die im gleichen Zeitraum voraussichtlich um 6% wachsen wird. Diese Divergenz schlägt potenzielle Gegenwinde für IHG vor, die möglicherweise mit globalen wirtschaftlichen Bedingungen oder einem verstärkten Wettbewerb zusammenhängen.
**Stock Performance und potenzielle Risiken*
Die Anteile der IHG haben in der vergangenen Woche einen Anstieg um 3,2% erlebt, der die starken Gewinnergebnisse widerspiegelt. Einfache Wand St hat drei potenzielle Risiken identifiziert, die mit dem Unternehmen verbunden sind, von denen zwei als weniger wünschenswert angesehen werden. Investoren sollten sich dieser Risiken bewusst sein, einschließlich derjenigen, die sich auf makroökonomische Bedingungen und Branchenwettbewerb beziehen.
** Investitionsbetrachtungen* *
Die beeindruckende Gewinnmarge des Unternehmens zeigt die operative Effizienz und die starke Umsatzentwicklung. Der prognostizierte Umsatzrückgang garantiert jedoch eine sorgfältige Betrachtung. Investoren sollten beurteilen, ob sich die derzeitige Rentabilität unter Berücksichtigung sinkender Einnahmen aufrecht erhalten kann, oder wenn Kostensenkungsmaßnahmen zur Aufrechterhaltung von Margen erforderlich sind.

Holiday Inn owner sees profits rise despite pressure from global uncertainty |

**Haftungsausschluss: Der Text wurde mit Hilfe einer KI zusammengefasst und übersetzt. Für Aussagen aus dem Originaltext wird keine Haftung übernommen!**
Holiday Inn owner InterContinental Hotels Group has revealed a slowdown in global room revenue as economic uncertainty due to tariffs and geopolitical tensions takes its toll.
The London-listed group reported that revenue per available room (revpar) – a key measure for the hotel industry – pulled back sharply to 0.3% in the second quarter from 3.3% in the previous three months.
The US, which is its largest market, slipped into reverse, with revpar down 0.9% in the second quarter, reflecting the impact on “business and leisure travel in light of macroeconomic developments”, according to the group.
In the UK, where InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) has around 355 UK hotels, revpar fell 0.8% over the first half as a whole.
But the overall half-year out-turn for global room revenue was better than expected, at 1.8%, helping shares rise nearly 7% in morning trading on Thursday.
IHG – which also owns chains such as Crowne Plaza and Regent – reported a 13% rise in operating profits to 604 million US dollars (£452 million) for the six months to June 30.
Pre-tax profits jumped to 633 million dollars (£474 million) from 472 million dollars (£353 million) a year ago.
Elie Maalouf, chief executive of IHG Hotels & Resorts, said: “While some shorter term macroeconomic uncertainties remain, many are subsiding, and we are confident in the ongoing successful delivery of our growth.”
The group cheered passing the milestone for one million rooms, having opened a record number of hotels in the first half, and said it continues to expand, with a pipeline of more than 2,200 hotels.
“Whilst in some countries geopolitical risk and the economic outlook present shorter-term challenges and uncertainties, overall conditions for the global industry remain positive for continued long-term growth, supported by stable employment markets and robust levels of business activity and economic growth,” the group said.
Julie Palmer, a partner at Begbies Traynor, said: “InterContinental Hotels has published another steady set of results that suggest the business remains on track, even as signs of softening demand emerge in more mature markets like the US.
“The slight dip in US revpar reflects broader economic uncertainty, heightened geopolitical tensions and more cautious consumer spending, but growth across other regions has helped soften the blow and maintain overall momentum.”

**Haftungsausschluss: Der Text wurde mit Hilfe einer KI zusammengefasst und übersetzt. Für Aussagen aus dem Originaltext wird keine Haftung übernommen!**
(Reuters) - Holiday Inn Owner InterContinental Hotels Group meldete am Donnerstag im zweiten Quartal einen Rückgang der US-Umsätze pro verfügbarem Zimmer (RevPAR), da die wirtschaftlichen Unsicherheiten die Konsumausgaben in seinem größten Markt verneinten.
US-Präsident Donald Trumps Tarife zu Handelspartnern und steigenden geopolitischen Spannungen haben die Reise- und Gastgewerbeindustrie ratifiziert, da das Vertrauen der Verbraucher auf eine rückgängige post-pandemie Erholung gedroht wird.
"Während einige kürzere makroökonomische Unsicherheiten bestehen bleiben, sind viele subventioniert", sagte der IHG-CEO Elie Maalouf in einer Erklärung und fügte hinzu, dass das Unternehmen weiterhin auf Kurs bleibt, um die jährlichen Gewinn- und Ergebniserwartungen zu erfüllen.
Der Hotelbetreiber sagte, dass US RevPAR in den drei Monaten, die am 30. Juni endeten, 0,9% gefallen sei, verglichen mit 3,5% Wachstum im ersten Quartal.
Das weltweite RPAR-Wachstum im ersten Halbjahr lag bei 1,8 %, verglichen mit 3 % im Vorjahr.

** Investitionen in InterContinental Hotels Group PLC: Ein Überblick über die Langzeitleistung* *
**Einführung**
Beim Kauf von Aktien in einem Unternehmen ist es wichtig, die Möglichkeit zu prüfen, dass es Wert ausfallen oder verlieren könnte. Ein gutes Unternehmen kann jedoch seinen Aktienkurs im Laufe der Zeit deutlich steigern. InterContinental Hotels Group (LON:IHG) ist ein prominentes Beispiel, mit einem Aktienkurs, der in fünf Jahren um 130% gestiegen ist. In diesem Artikel werden wir die langfristige Leistungsfähigkeit des Unternehmens untersuchen und Faktoren berücksichtigen, die die Zukunftsaussichten beeinflussen könnten.

InterContinental Der Aktienkurs der Hotels Group hat in den letzten fünf Jahren ein beeindruckendes Wachstum gezeigt, mit einem Ergebnis je Aktie (EPS) von 14 % pro Jahr.

Für die InterContinental Hotels Group lag der TSR in den letzten fünf Jahren bei 146%, was besser ist als die oben erwähnte Aktienkurserklärung. Die Dividendenzahlungen sind für diese Divergenz weitgehend verantwortlich.

Key Insights
Given the large stake in the stock by institutions, InterContinental Hotels Group's stock price might be vulnerable to their trading decisions The top 12 shareholders own 50% of the company Insiders have sold recently
We've found 21 US stocks that are forecast to pay a dividend yield of over 6% next year. See the full list for free.
If you want to know who really controls InterContinental Hotels Group PLC (LON:IHG), then you'll have to look at the makeup of its share registry. The group holding the most number of shares in the company, around 79% to be precise, is institutions. In other words, the group stands to gain the most (or lose the most) from their investment into the company.
As a result, institutional investors endured the highest losses last week after market cap fell by UK£1.2b. The recent loss, which adds to a one-year loss of 2.5% for stockholders, may not sit well with this group of investors. Often called “market movers", institutions wield significant power in influencing the price dynamics of any stock. Hence, if weakness in InterContinental Hotels Group's share price continues, institutional investors may feel compelled to sell the stock, which might not be ideal for individual investors.
Let's delve deeper into each type of owner of InterContinental Hotels Group, beginning with the chart below.
See our latest analysis for InterContinental Hotels Group LSE:IHG Ownership Breakdown April 9th 2025
What Does The Institutional Ownership Tell Us About InterContinental Hotels Group?
Many institutions measure their performance against an index that approximates the local market. So they usually pay more attention to companies that are included in major indices.
As you can see, institutional investors have a fair amount of stake in InterContinental Hotels Group. This implies the analysts working for those institutions have looked at the stock and they like it. But just like anyone else, they could be wrong. If multiple institutions change their view on a stock at the same time, you could see the share price drop fast. It's therefore worth looking at InterContinental Hotels Group's earnings history below. Of course, the future is what really matters.LSE:IHG Earnings and Revenue Growth April 9th 2025
Investors should note that institutions actually own more than half the company, so they can collectively wield significant power. We note that hedge funds don't have a meaningful investment in InterContinental Hotels Group. Our data shows that FMR LLC is the largest shareholder with 11% of shares outstanding. For context, the second largest shareholder holds about 7.3% of the shares outstanding, followed by an ownership of 5.3% by the third-largest shareholder.
Story Continues
A closer look at our ownership figures suggests that the top 12 shareholders have a combined ownership of 50% implying that no single shareholder has a majority.
While studying institutional ownership for a company can add value to your research, it is also a good practice to research analyst recommendations to get a deeper understand of a stock's expected performance. There are a reasonable number of analysts covering the stock, so it might be useful to find out their aggregate view on the future.
Insider Ownership Of InterContinental Hotels Group
While the precise definition of an insider can be subjective, almost everyone considers board members to be insiders. The company management answer to the board and the latter should represent the interests of shareholders. Notably, sometimes top-level managers are on the board themselves.
Most consider insider ownership a positive because it can indicate the board is well aligned with other shareholders. However, on some occasions too much power is concentrated within this group.
Our information suggests that InterContinental Hotels Group PLC insiders own under 1% of the company. But they may have an indirect interest through a corporate structure that we haven't picked up on. Being so large, we would not expect insiders to own a large proportion of the stock. Collectively, they own UK£30m of stock. It is always good to see at least some insider ownership, but it might be worth checking if those insiders have been selling.
General Public Ownership
With a 14% ownership, the general public, mostly comprising of individual investors, have some degree of sway over InterContinental Hotels Group. This size of ownership, while considerable, may not be enough to change company policy if the decision is not in sync with other large shareholders.
Private Company Ownership
Our data indicates that Private Companies hold 5.5%, of the company's shares. Private companies may be related parties. Sometimes insiders have an interest in a public company through a holding in a private company, rather than in their own capacity as an individual. While it's hard to draw any broad stroke conclusions, it is worth noting as an area for further research.
Next Steps:
I find it very interesting to look at who exactly owns a company. But to truly gain insight, we need to consider other information, too. Take risks for example - InterContinental Hotels Group has 3 warning signs we think you should be aware of.

We recently published a list of 12 Most Oversold Large Cap Stocks to Invest in Now. In this article, we are going to take a look at where InterContinental Hotels Group PLC (NYSE:IHG) stands against other most oversold large cap stocks to invest in now.
Impact of Tariff Uncertainty on Wall Street and the Future of US Stocks
Wall Street is being impacted by the uncertainty surrounding the tariff news. The broader has dropped a lot since Trump took office on January 20, and investors are mostly worried about tariffs because they think they could hurt economic growth and cause inflation. Investors think trade policies can reduce consumer confidence and restrict businesses’ ability to invest capital, while Trump believes tariffs can boost national revenue, promote broad-based growth, and be used as a negotiation weapon with other nations.
According to Franklin Templeton, the Magnificent Seven’s supremacy in AI has allowed US stocks to generate significant returns over the last few years, with the broader market frequently hitting all-time highs. The outlook for the market as a whole is favorable, notwithstanding high valuations. Sales growth has been accelerating, innovation and investment are still happening at a rapid pace, and this year’s earnings are predicted to increase by double digits. Additionally, the administration of the US economy is more business-friendly. However, there are concerns, primarily associated with US trade policy and the anticipated effects of tariffs on important industries, such as technology.
Franklin Templeton thinks that despite these risks, investor confidence in US stocks should continue to be high. The new administration’s policy reforms are anticipated to finally produce long-term benefits for the larger US economy, notwithstanding the possibility of increased dangers.
Franklin Templeton also stated that although the Mag 7 stocks are positioned for long-term success, market leadership is anticipated to expand as and when innovation accelerates. According to the investment firm, active management is crucial. The transition from AI platforms to infrastructure is still in progress. Consequently, it is anticipated that the success of investments will depend on the ability to select the appropriate companies at the right time—those that have the technology, strategy, and flexibility to continue and sustain long-term growth.
Thanks to innovation and investment, US stocks—mostly large-cap stocks—have been doing well. Notably, the Dow index has increased by more than 4.5% in the last six months. The investment business sees expanding chances beyond such market leaders, even though the Mag 7 stocks still sustain the market momentum. The competitive landscape is still dynamic and has been generating new development sectors as a result of the ongoing AI-driven cycle.

InterContinental Hotels Group PLC (NYSE:IHG)
Relative Strength Index: 24.16
InterContinental Hotels Group PLC (NYSE:IHG) is a British multinational hospitality company that operates, franchises, and manages hotels globally. Rather than owning hotels, the company generates revenue through franchising its well-known brands like InterContinental, Holiday Inn, and Crowne Plaza and by managing properties for third-party owners. The company earns fees for the use of its brands, reservation systems, and marketing programs and also benefits from its loyalty program, IHG One Rewards, which had 132 million members as of 2023.
InterContinental Hotels Group PLC (NYSE:IHG)’s Q4 2024 earnings call highlighted strong growth, though the company slightly missed EPS expectations. It reported earnings of $2.27 per share, just under the expected $2.29. Despite this, the business remains optimistic, showcasing solid RevPAR growth, expanding its system, and increasing profitability.
The corporation’s revenue for the quarter reached $2.3 billion, with EBIT growing 10% to $1.124 billion. The fee business saw a 6% increase in revenue and a 9% rise in operating profit, while the fee margin grew by 190 basis points to 61.2%. Global RevPAR increased by 4.6% in Q4, and for the full year, RevPAR rose 3%, driven by both higher rates and occupancy. The Americas and EMEAA regions performed well, but Greater China saw a slight decline, expected to rebound.
InterContinental Hotels Group PLC (NYSE:IHG) also expanded its footprint, adding 59,000 rooms and reaching nearly 1 million rooms across 6,600 hotels. This represents a 6.2% gross system growth and a 4.3% net system growth, marking the third consecutive year of acceleration. The company is also focusing on capital allocation, launching a $900 million share buyback program, acquiring the Ruby Urban Lifestyle brand for $116 million, and increasing its dividend by 10%.
Their cash flow remained strong with a 94% cash conversion rate, and the company expects to return to typical levels of 100% moving forward. A key driver of this growth was the recovery in travel demand, especially in groups and leisure. The Ruby Urban Lifestyle acquisition is expected to strengthen InterContinental Hotels Group PLC (NYSE:IHG)’s premium segment and cater to the growing demand for experiential travel, further boosting future revenue and profitability.
Overall, IHG ranks 2nd on our list of most oversold large cap stocks to invest in now. While we acknowledge the potential of IHG, our conviction lies in the belief that AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns, and doing so within a shorter timeframe. If you are looking for an AI stock that is more promising than IHG but that trades at less than 5 times its earnings, check out our report about the cheapest AI stock.

Investing.com-- Hotels have faced a sharp correction following warnings from U.S. airlines, as investor concerns about a potential slowdown in travel demand.
InterContinental Hotels Group and Accor (EPA:ACCP) were hit hard after negative commentary from U.S. carriers such as Delta Air Lines (NYSE:DAL) and American Airlines (NASDAQ:AAL), which pointed to weakening domestic business and leisure travel demand.
While IHG’s significant exposure to the U.S. market (around 60% of sales) makes it vulnerable, Accor, despite only 10% of its sales coming from the United States, is also affected due to broader macroeconomic fears and its high operating leverage.
Investors are increasingly risk-averse amid mounting U.S. recession concerns, with fears that the slowdown signaled by airlines could soon reflect in hotel revenue per available room (RevPAR), the bank said.
Barclays acknowledged investor caution, noting the cyclical nature of the hotel industry, but said it remains uncertain whether the pullback will be a temporary softening or the start of a deeper downturn. A modest decline in RevPAR could present a buying opportunity, but a prolonged recession would likely pressure hotel stocks further, the bank added.
Among leisure stocks, Barclays highlighted Compass Group (LON:CPG) as a "clearer buy on weakness," citing the catering firm’s defensive qualities and continued positive business trends.
“We sympathise with investors’ risk-off approach to the sector in light of these concerns in the short-term given the highly cyclical nature of hotel RevPAR,” analyst at Barclays said.
