Goldman analyst Stephen Grambling added Hilton to the Conviction Buy List telling investors he expects double-digit earnings growth through 2019 and upside to consensus earnings to re-rate shares more in line with asset-light peers. Grambling is positive on Hilton's fundamentals given its capacity to take on additional leverage to buyback shares, accelerating new unit growth, and potential M&A from under-appreciated free cash flow generation and stability. The analyst has a $77 price target on Hilton shares.
