Personally I'd bet that a majority of their revenue is attributable to units that are not owner-occupied for several reasons:
* people using a dwelling limits how much hosting they can do
* how hard they've fought to avoid forcing these professional landlords to obey the law (viz nyc, sf, etc); would they have fought so hard (potentially endangering their whole business, see current prop F backlash in sf) if this were a small fraction of revenue?
see eg http://www.sfchronicle.com/airbnb-impact-san-francisco-2015/#1 http://www.sfchronicle.com/airbnb-impact-san-francisco-2015/...
My back-of-napkin rough estimates are 40-70% of revenue is not the face of the anti-prop F campaign, ie someone earning a little extra money from the odd weekend guest.
