Priceline.com hebt Prognosen an

NORWALK - Der Online-Reisespezialist Priceline.com (Nasdaq: PCLN, WKN: 766054) rechnet aufgrund eines stärkeren Reise- und Buchungsaufkommens, insbesondere in Europa, mit einem höheren Gewinn im laufenden dritten Quartal.

So erhöht Priceline.com seine Gewinnprognosen auf 64 bis 68 US-Cent je Aktie, nachdem das Unternehmen im Vorfeld einen Nettogewinn von 60 bis 65 US-Cent je Aktie in Aussicht stellte. Analysten erwarten für das laufende Quartal einen Nettogewinn von 64 US-Cent je Aktie, bei Einnahmen von 298 Mio. Dollar.

Für das nachfolgende dritte Quartal erwartet Priceline.com nunmehr einen Nettogewinn von 32 bis 38 US-Cent je Aktie, während man an der Wall Street bisher mit einem Nettogewinn von 35 US-Cent je Aktie kalkulierte.

Vor allem das europäische Buchungsgeschäft verzeichne ein weiteres Wachstum, wobei sich die Reise-Buchungen gegenüber dem Vorquartal mehr als verdoppelt hätten, erklärt Priceline Präsident und CEO Jeffery Boyd. Für das nachfolgende Jahr 2007 visiere man einen Nettogewinn von 2,15 bis 2,40 Dollar je Aktie an, heißt es.

Gleichzeitig gab das Unternehmen zwei Wandelanleihen im Gesamtvolumen von 300 Mio. Dollar für institutionelle Investoren aus. 150 Mio. Dollar hiervon will Priceline.com für den Rückkauf eigener Anteile verwenden. Darüber hinaus sollen bestehende Wandelanleihen mit einer Laufzeit bis 2010 und 2025 zurückgekauft werden. (ami)

NORWALK, Conn., Oct 02, 2006 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- In a priceline.com(R) (PCLN) survey of destinations receiving the most hotel room reservation requests for the upcoming Columbus Day long weekend (October 7-9), New York City's Upper Midtown/Central Park South neighborhood is the number-one place to be.

To compile its list of the Top 50 Columbus Day travel destinations, priceline.com looked at a sampling of more than 30,000 hotel room booking requests made by priceline.com customers. Since the priceline.com study is based on actual booking requests, and not on consumer preference polls or votes, priceline.com believes the study is one of the more accurate predictors of future travel trends.

Priceline.com said it still has plenty of last-minute airline tickets, hotel rooms, rental cars, vacation packages and cruises available for Columbus Day getaways. Visit www.priceline.com for full details.

In addition to the top spot, New York neighborhoods took four of the top 10 spots on the list. Several other major cities made a priceline.com Top 50 holiday travel list for the first time this year, including Houston, Dallas and Minneapolis. Also of particular interest is the strong showing among international destinations, which took nine spots on the list. Destinations making the Columbus Day list included London (#19), Paris (#22 and #46), Brighton in the UK (#48), Rome (#32), Madrid (#50), Vancouver (#38), Montreal (#34) and St. Catharines, Ontario (#44).
