## Most Popular Narrative: 32.7% Undervalued

Analysts following Service Properties Trust see more upside than the current $1.57 share price implies. They are anchoring on a fair value estimate of $2.33 that relies heavily on future margin repair and a higher earnings multiple.

> _The persistent rise in labor costs and continued inflationary pressures are expected to limit margin expansion within SVC's hotel portfolio, as evidenced by the ongoing year-over-year declines in hotel-level EBITDA and 300 basis point decrease in gross operating profit margin, suggesting that investors may be underestimating future impacts on earnings and net margins._
