Starboard Value builds over 9% stake in Tripadvisor, WSJ reports

  • Starboard Value LP revealed in a recent securities filing that it holds over a 9% ownership interest in Tripadvisor Inc., leading to a notable increase in the company's share price on Thursday.
  • This disclosure follows Tripadvisor's special committee formation last year to explore potential options amid pressure from weaker travel demand and competition.
  • Starboard Value, known for pushing changes like new CEOs and cost cuts, recently won board seats at Autodesk and is returning to consumer-facing investments.
  • As of the close of trading on Wednesday, Starboard Value's investment in Tripadvisor was estimated to be worth approximately $160 million, with the company's shares rising up to 18% during early market activity.
  • Starboard's stake signals activist engagement that could influence Tripadvisor's value unlocking, while the company's shares remain flat year-to-date after a 2024 decline over 30%.
