InterContinental Hotels Group PLC (IHG) has acquired from Ruby SARL the RubyTM brand and related intellectual property for initial purchase consideration of €110.5m (~$116m1). Ruby is a premium urban lifestyle brand for modern travellers in must-visit city destinations and provides hotel owners with space-efficient designs and an attractive, flexible concept that IHG expects to rapidly expand globally.
Established in 2013, the Ruby brand currently operates 20 hotels (3,483 rooms) in major cities across Europe and has another 10 pipeline hotels (2,235 rooms). There are 9 hotels open in Germany (across Cologne, Dusseldorf, Frankfurt, Hamburg, Munich and Stuttgart), 3 in the UK in London, 3 in Austria (Vienna), 2 in Switzerland (Geneva and Zurich), and 1 in each of Italy, Ireland and the Netherlands. The pipeline hotels are set to open over the next three years across more European cities including Edinburgh, Marseille, Rome and Stockholm.
Ruby hotels offer a stylish yet relaxed charm, blending soulful design and authentic stories rooted in the cities they call home. The brand’s ‘Lean Luxury’ approach includes signature touches ranging from a great bed and shower in guest rooms created with restoration and relaxation in mind, to unique cocktails in destination 24/7 bars, all coming together to connect guests with sought-after cities at the right price.
As our 20th brand, Ruby will extend IHG’s appeal to modern, lifestyle-focused travellers, and offers hotel owners a cost-efficient and highly adaptable premium hotel concept, in an industry segment characterised by high barriers to entry and space constraints, often referred to in the industry as ‘urban micro’. Efficiencies for owners are delivered through space-saving designs and a high degree of operational standardisation and automation, including self-service kiosks for speedy check-in.
Ruby is already well-established in Europe and has proven to be successful for both new build locations as well as being highly conversion-friendly, including for adaptive re-use across a range of commercial property types, with several successful office conversions. Reflecting this, the Ruby brand has achieved a net system size compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 26% over the last five years. The seller of the brand anticipates growing their portfolio of Ruby-branded hotels substantially further, and IHG expects to grow the brand with other hotel owners in Europe and globally. This builds upon IHG’s proven track record of successfully internationalising brands that it has organically developed and acquired. IHG expects to have the Ruby brand ready for development in the US by the end of the year.
Joining forces with IHG allows Ruby hotels to draw on a powerful enterprise platform of distribution and technology systems, as well as one of the world’s biggest and most powerful hotel loyalty programmes, IHG One Rewards. IHG expects the urban micro sub-segment to continue experiencing strong demand from travellers around the world, and this in turn would support ongoing rooms supply growth at higher rates than the global hotel industry. IHG is targeting the Ruby brand to grow to more than 120 hotels over the next 10 years and accelerate to more than 250 over 20 years across owners globally.
Elie Maalouf, Chief Executive Officer, IHG Hotels & Resorts, said:
“We are delighted with the acquisition of Ruby, which further enriches our portfolio with an exciting, distinct and high-quality offer for both guests and owners in popular city destinations. This acquisition demonstrates our focus on building our presence in large, attractive industry segments and using our experience of integrating and growing brands and hotel portfolios. The urban micro space is a franchise-friendly model with attractive owner economics, and we see excellent opportunities to not only expand Ruby’s strong European base but also rapidly take this exciting brand to the Americas and across Asia, as we have successfully done with previous brand acquisitions.”
Michael Struck, Founder and CEO of The Ruby Group, added:
“We have carefully selected IHG as the right partner to take the Ruby brand and our international expansion to the next level. IHG’s distribution powerhouse, the fact that Ruby perfectly complements IHG’s portfolio, and its proven track record of successfully preserving identity and culture when integrating brands gives us great confidence as we embark on this next chapter together. Combining the global reach and resources of IHG with the efficiency advantages of our operational and construction model will drive superior returns for our investors and real-estate partners, alike. Also, the timing could not be better. Our unique solutions for efficient adaptive re-use of office space are in high demand, positioning us for strong growth.”
Further details on the acquisition agreement and financial overview:
- Initial purchase consideration of €110.5m (~$116m1) for IHG to acquire the Ruby brand and related intellectual property consists of an upfront payment of €109.9m that has been paid on completion of the transaction and a fixed deferred payment of €0.6m payable upon approximately half the hotels joining IHG’s system.
- As part of the master franchise and development agreement with Ruby, initial franchise fees receivable by IHG from the current 20 open hotels and the current pipeline of 10 hotels (which are all expected to open by the end of 2027) are anticipated to be approximately $8m in 2028, which would be the first full year when all 30 hotels would be in IHG’s system.
- Taking into consideration further development by the seller to open more hotels beyond their current pipeline, together with IHG’s plans to expand the Ruby brand with other hotel owners globally, franchise fees by 2030 are anticipated to be in excess of $15m.
- The seller’s operating company is not being acquired by IHG and will continue to operate the current open hotels and any future hotels that the seller develops under the brand.
- Open, pipeline and all future Ruby hotels operated by the seller will enter into individual franchise agreements with IHG and pay to IHG brand royalty fees and System Fund fees.
- To incentivise further growth in the brand by the seller, potential additional payments ranging from €nil up to €181m ($190m1) may become payable in 2030 and 2035. Future payments are contingent on the number of Ruby-branded rooms operated by the seller at the end of the preceding year. A payment of €9m ($9m1) would be paid to the seller if they grew to operate in excess of 10,000 Ruby-branded rooms. This scales up to the maximum potential total if they grew to in excess of 20,000 rooms, a scale that is approximately six times bigger than the current open hotels. IHG’s planned growth of the brand with other hotel owners is excluded from the calculation of any potential additional payment to the seller.
- The integration of all 20 currently open Ruby hotels into IHG’s system is expected to commence later in 2025 and be completed by 31 March 2026. This would increase IHG’s global system size by approximately 0.3%. The current pipeline of 10 hotels when open would add a further ~0.2% to IHG’s system.
- Integration operating costs for IHG of approximately $10m are expected to be incurred in 2025. Including further one-time costs, in 2026 a broadly breakeven contribution to IHG’s operating profit is anticipated, with growth in profitability forecasted thereafter.
