Airbnb reported first-quarter revenue that exceeded estimates, but the company warned of rising cancellations in the Middle East due to the ongoing war in Iran.
The results, released after the market closed on Thursday, reflect a 18% year-over-year revenue increase, though regional disruptions are expected to weigh on future performance.
The stock's post-earnings reaction has drawn attention from traders, with the broader travel sector under pressure from geopolitical tensions.
