A Message from Our President and CEO

At Wyndham, we believe in making hotel travel possible for all. It’s not just our mission—it’s what shapes our culture, guides our decisions, and defines our impact on the world. From road trippers and resort lovers to everyday business travelers supporting critical infrastructure projects—wherever people travel, however they travel, our goal is to ensure Wyndham is there, ready to welcome them.

In 2025, that focus is what fueled our growth. Together with our franchisees, we opened 72,000 rooms, awarded 870 new development contracts, and expanded our pipeline to a record 259,000 rooms. Today, our portfolio spans more than 8,400 hotels across 25 brands in approximately 100 countries—making Wyndham one of the world’s largest hotel franchisors. At the same time, our top-rated Wyndham Rewards program has grown to over 124 million enrolled members, deepening our engagement with travelers around the world.

Behind our growth is a model built on partnership. Our franchisees are at the heart of everything we do, and it was our privilege to once again bring more than five thousand of them together, along with our team members and partners, last May at our 2025 Global Conference in Las Vegas, one of the industry’s largest gatherings. It’s moments like these that reinforce the collaboration and shared purpose that define Wyndham at its best.

As we grow, we remain guided by our Count on Me® service culture and our core values: Integrity,
Accountability, Inclusive, Caring and Fun. These principles shape not only how we do business but create opportunity and impact—whether that’s broadening access to hotel ownership through programs like Women Own the Room and BOLD by Wyndham, supporting more efficient operations through initiatives like Wyndham Green or working with organizations like BEST, Polaris and PACT to
help combat human trafficking.

Of course, none of what we do would be possible without our people. Thousands of dedicated team members who bring our mission to life every day, supporting our franchisees through our OwnerFirst approach and giving back to their communities with countless hours of volunteer time via Wyndham-endorsed Wish Days.

We are incredibly proud of the progress we’ve made but even more inspired by what lies ahead. By staying true to our mission, investing in our people, and growing responsibly, we are helping create a more inclusive and accessible future for travel.

Thank you for your continued trust and interest. Wherever your travels may take you in the year ahead, we look forward to welcoming you soon at a Hotel by Wyndham.
