LA QUINTA CORP

LA QUINTA CORP

La Quinta Corp. operates a branded collection of roadside hotels and motels across the U.S., offering clean, value-focused lodging, loyalty-driven breakfast, and meeting-room amenities that appeal to cost-conscious business travelers, road-tripping families, and franchise partners in the broader SIC 7011 lodging industry whose growth depends on steady travel demand. The company’s operations emphasize franchising and management services, with legacy capital deployed in extended-stay and select-service properties that survive by delivering consistent standards to independent and chain-conscious guests while ensuring comparative occupancy for investors. Material risks stem from the cyclical nature of travel, rising labor and energy costs, and evolving safety, accessibility, and environmental regulations overseen by hospitality authorities and municipal permitting boards, which can affect development timelines, occupancy rates, and guest confidence. La Quinta’s latest disclosure, the Form 8-K filed Apr 1999, underscores its ongoing need to align capital deployment with market realities. Explore live SEC filings on Earnings Feed.
