Global third-quarter rates came in at $164, up 1% from the prior year. It reported a profit of $2.13 per share for the quarter ended Sept. 30, narrowly missing Street estimates of $2.14 per share.

The short-term rental company posted higher revenue in the third quarter as North American travel trends improved.
