Airbnb returns to profit

Airbnb has forecast third-quarter revenue above estimates and announced a $2bn (£1.6bn) share buyback, its first since going public.

The San Francisco-based property sharing platform expects current-quarter revenue of between $2.78bn and $2.88bn, higher than the average of analysts’ estimates of $2.77bn. It reported a net profit of $379m compared with a loss of $68m a year ago.

Despite the upbeat outlook the shares fell 7.4% to $107.75 in late trading on Wall Street.
