Travelzoo: The Hidden Growth Story Behind Margin Compression
Travelzoo is rated a buy with a 3-year target price of $24, reflecting strong fundamentals and market mispricing. TZOO's transition to a subscription travel club is driving recurring revenue growth, with positive unit economics and a rapidly expanding paid membership base. Short-term margin compression is due to strategic reinvestment, not structural weakness, and buybacks plus insider alignment further support the bullish thesis.
Travelzoo Continues To Show Worsening Economics, Cannot Be Explained By Investment Alone
Travelzoo reported 3Q25 results showing revenue growth but continued deterioration in operating margins, driven by its new membership model. Despite management's claims, the economics of the membership business appear weak, with higher CAC, low margins, and questionable profitability improvements. Significant insider selling by the largest shareholder, alongside ongoing share repurchases, raises concerns about confidence in TZOO's future prospects.
