Refer to the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Due to the effects of COVID-19, we assessed goodwill for impairment during the first quarter of 2020 and determined that the carrying value of our consolidated and unconsolidated hotel reporting units exceeded their respective estimated fair value. As a result, we fully impaired our remaining goodwill balance, recognizing an impairment loss of $~~607~~ ~~million in the first quarter of 2020.~~

We are required to ~~repay~~deposit with lenders certain cash reserves for restricted uses. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, our condensed consolidated balance sheets included $~~564~~6 million and $60 million of restricted cash, respectively, related to our ~~outstanding balance under the Revolver, which may be redrawn, and~~mortgage loans. The $~~173~~92 million held by the lenders of the ~~2019 Term Facility.~~ ~~The 2029 Senior Secured Notes bear interest at a rate of~~ ~~4.875% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 15~~HHV Mortgage Loan and ~~November 15 of each year, beginning November 15, 2021.~~ ~~The 2029 Senior Secured Notes will mature on~~ ~~May 15, 2029. We capitalized $~~13 ~~million of issuance costs~~the mortgage loan secured by the Hilton Denver City Center was released to us during the ~~nine months ended September 30, 2021.~~

~~We may redeem the 2029 Senior Secured Notes at any time prior to~~ ~~May 15, 2024, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to~~ ~~100~~%third quarter upon submission of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date plus a make-whole premium. On or after May 15, 2024, we may redeem the 2029 Senior Secured Notes, in whole or in part, at the applicable redemption prices set forth in the indenture. On or after ~~May 15, 2026, we may redeem the 2029 Senior Secured Notes at~~ ~~100~~%certificates reflecting compliance with financial ratios of ~~the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. In addition, before May 15, 2024, we may redeem up to~~ 40~~% of the 2029 Senior Secured Notes with the net cash proceeds from certain equity offerings at a redemption price of~~ ~~104.875% of the principal amount redeemed.~~

The 2029 Senior Secured Notes are guaranteed by us and by the subsidiaries of our Operating Company that also guarantee indebtedness under our credit facilities, which guarantors also guarantee the obligations under the Company’s Senior Secured Notes on a first priority basis. The guarantees are full and unconditional and joint and several. The 2029 Senior Secured Notes are secured, subject to permitted liens, by a first priority security interest in all of the capital stock of certain wholly-owned subsidiaries of certain of the guarantors and PK Domestic, which collateral also secures the obligations under our credit and term loan facilities on a first priority basis. The indenture governing the 2029 Senior Secured Notes contains customary covenants that limit the issuers’ ability and, in certain instances, the ability of the issuers’ subsidiaries, to borrow money, create liens on assets, make distributions and pay dividends on or redeem or repurchase stock, make certain types of investments, sell stock in certain subsidiaries, enter into agreements that restrict dividends or other payments from subsidiaries, enter into transactions with affiliates, issue guarantees of indebtedness, and sell assets or merge with other companies. These covenants are subject to a number of exceptions and qualifications, including the ability to declare or pay any cash dividend or make any cash distribution to us to the extent necessary for us to fund a dividend or distribution by us that we believe is necessary to maintain our status as a REIT or to avoid payment of any tax for any calendar year that could be avoided by reason of such distribution, and the ability to make certain restricted payments not to exceed $~~100~~ ~~million, plus~~ 95% of our cumulative Funds From Operations (as defined in the indenture), plus the aggregate net proceeds from (i) the sale of certain equity interests in, (ii) capital contributions to, and (iii) certain convertible indebtedness of the Operating Company. ~~In addition, the indenture requires our Operating Company to maintain total unencumbered assets as of each fiscal quarter of at least~~ ~~150% of total unsecured indebtedness, in each case calculated on a consolidated basis.~~these loans.

Note ~~10:~~8: Share-Based Compensation

We issue equity-based awards to our employees pursuant to the 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan (“2017 Employee Plan”) and our non-employee directors pursuant to the 2017 Stock Plan for Non-Employee Directors (as amended and restated from time to time, the “2017 Director Plan”). The 2017 Employee Plan provides that a maximum of 8,000,000 shares of our common stock may be issued, and as of September 30, ~~2021,~~2022, ~~2,915,404~~2,315,269 shares of common stock remain available for future issuance. ~~As amended and approved by our stockholders in April 2021, the~~The 2017 Director Plan provides that a maximum of 950,000 shares of our common stock may be issued, and as of September 30, ~~2021,~~2022, ~~498,153~~407,210 shares of common stock remain available for future issuance. For the three months ended September 30, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020,~~2021, we recognized $54 million and $45 million of share-based compensation expense, respectively, and $1513 million and $1015 million, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020.~~2021. As of September 30, ~~2021,~~2022, unrecognized compensation expense was $2221 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of ~~1.8~~ 1.4years. The total fair value of shares vested (calculated as the number of shares multiplied by the vesting date share price) during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was $7 million and ~~2020 was~~ $18 million, ~~and $~~17 ~~million,~~ respectively.

Restricted Stock Awards

Restricted Stock Awards (“RSAs”) generally vest in annual installments between one and three years from each grant date. The following table provides a summary of RSAs for the nine months ended September 30, ~~2021:~~2022:


	Number of Shares			Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value		Number of Shares			Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value

Unvested at September 30, 2022							841,483		$	20.22

Performance Stock Units

Performance Stock Units (“PSUs”) generally vest at the end of a three-year performance period and are subject to the achievement of a market condition based on a measure of our total shareholder return relative to the total shareholder return of the companies that comprise the FTSE Nareit Lodging Resorts Index (that have a market capitalization in excess of $1 billion as of the first day of the applicable performance period). The number of PSUs that may become vested ranges from zero to 200% of the number of PSUs granted to an employee, based on the level of achievement of the foregoing performance measure.

Additionally, in November ~~202~~0,2020, we granted special awards with vesting of these awards subject to the achievement of eight increasing levels of our average closing sales price per share, from $11.00 to $25.00, over a consecutive 20 trading day period (“Share Price Target”). One-eighth of PSUs will vest at each date a Share Price Target is achieved and any PSUs remaining after a four-year performance period will be forfeited. As of September 30, ~~2021,~~2022, 6six of the 8eight Share Price Targets were achieved and thus 75% of the awards granted were vested.

The following table provides a summary of PSUs for the nine months ended September 30, ~~2021:~~ 2022:

(1) ~~The weighted average expected volatility was~~ ~~60.0~~%.

~~(2)~~ Dividends are assumed to be reinvested in shares of our common stock and dividends will not be paid unless shares vest.

Certain of our outstanding equity awards were excluded from the above calculation of EPS for the three and nine months ended September 30, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020~~2021 because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

Note ~~12:~~10: Business Segment Information

As of September 30, ~~202~~1,2022, we have 2two operating segments, our consolidated hotels and unconsolidated hotels. Our unconsolidated hotels operating segment does not meet the definition of a reportable segment, thus our consolidated hotels is our only reportable segment. We evaluate our consolidated hotels primarily based on hotel adjusted earnings (loss) before interest expense, taxes and depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”). Hotel Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as EBITDA from hotel operations, adjusted to exclude:

•

Gains or losses on sales of assets for both consolidated and unconsolidated investments;

•

Costs associated with hotel acquisitions or dispositions expensed during the period;

•

Severance expense;

•

Share-based compensation expense;

•

Impairment losses and casualty gains or losses; and

•

Other items that we believe are not representative of our current or future operating performance.

Note ~~13:~~11: Commitments and Contingencies

In September 2022, Hurricanes Ian and Fiona caused minimal damage and disruption at our hotels in Florida and Puerto Rico, respectively. Although the total amount of the costs to repair and remediate the minor damage has not yet been determined, they are not expected to be significant. The affected hotels experienced some group cancellations and displacement; however, the majority of lost revenue in September 2022 was replaced with revenue from displaced residents, recovery personnel and incremental transient demand. We continue to assess both the extent of costs and any ongoing business interruption. As of September 30, ~~2021,~~2022, we recognized a loss of approximately $2 million resulting from these hurricanes included within casualty and impairment loss, net in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

As of September 30, 2022, we had outstanding commitments under third-party contracts of approximately $~~116~~121 million for capital expenditures at our properties, of which $7847 million relates to the expansion project at the Bonnet Creek complex. The Bonnet Creek expansion project includes additional meeting space for the Signia by Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek and the Waldorf Astoria Orlando. Our contracts contain clauses that allow us to cancel all or some portion of the work. If cancellation of a contract occurred, our commitment would be any costs incurred up to the cancellation date, in addition to any costs associated with the discharge of the contract.

We are involved in litigation arising from the normal course of business, some of which includes claims for substantial sums, and may make certain indemnifications or guarantees to select buyers of our hotels as part of a sale process. We are also involved in claims and litigation that is not in the ordinary course of business in connection with the spin-off from Hilton. The spin-off agreements provide that Hilton will indemnify us from certain of these claims as well as require us to indemnify Hilton for other claims. In addition, losses related to certain contingent liabilities could be apportioned to us under the spin-off agreements. In connection with our obligation to indemnify Hilton under the spin-off agreements, we have reserved approximately $8 million as of September 30, ~~2021~~2022 related to litigation with respect to an audit by the Australian Tax Office (“ATO”) of Hilton related to the sale of the Hilton Sydney in June 2015. ~~In February 2021, we were required to make a payment to Hilton of approximately $~~11 ~~million representing our share of the deposit required by the ATO of Hilton to further defend against the claim and for certain out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Hilton.~~ This amount could change as the litigation of the ATO’s claim progresses.

Note 12: Subsequent Events

15In October 2022, the joint ventures that own and operate the DoubleTree Hotel Las Vegas Airport sold the hotel for gross proceeds of approximately $22 million, and our pro-rata share of the gross proceeds was approximately $11 million.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of Park Hotels & Resorts Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”). Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements related to our expectations regarding the performance of our business, our financial results, our liquidity and capital resources, including ~~the~~ expected ~~reopening dates for our hotels and~~ dates that our hotels will break even or achieve positive Hotel Adjusted EBITDA, the impact to our business and financial condition and that of our hotel management companies, measures being taken in response to COVID-19, the impact from macroeconomic factors (including inflation, increases in interest rates, potential economic slowdown or a recession and geopolitical conflicts), the effects of competition, the effects of future legislation or regulations, the expected completion of anticipated dispositions, the declaration and payment of future dividends and other non-historical statements. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts, and in some cases, can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as the words “outlook,” “believes,” “expects,” “potential,” “continues,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “seeks,” “projects,” “predicts,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “anticipates”, “hopes” or the negative version of these words or other comparable words. You should not rely on forward-looking statements since they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which are, in some cases, beyond our control and which could materially affect our results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, performance or future achievements or events. Currently, one of the most significant factors is the adverse effect of COVID-19, including resurgences, on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and performance, our hotel management companies and our hotels’ tenants, and the global economy and financial markets. COVID-19 has significantly affected our business, and the extent to which COVID-19 impacts us, our hotel managers, tenants and guests at our hotels will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic, the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its effect, the emergence of virus variants, the efficacy, availability and deployment of vaccinations and other treatments to combat COVID-19, including public adoption rates of COVID-19 vaccines, additional closures that may be mandated or advisable even after the reopening of certain of our hotels on a limited basis, whether due to an increased number of COVID-19 cases or otherwise, and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures, among others. Moreover, investors are cautioned to interpret many of the risks identified in the risk factors included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 as being heightened as a result of the ongoing and numerous adverse impacts of COVID-19.

All such forward-looking statements are based on current expectations of management and therefore involve estimates and assumptions that are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed in the statements. You should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements and we urge investors to carefully review the disclosures we make concerning risks and uncertainties in Item 1A: “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, as such factors may be updated from time to time in our periodic filings with the SEC, which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov, as well as risks, uncertainties and other factors discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Overview

We have a diverse portfolio of iconic and market-leading hotels and resorts with significant underlying real estate value. We currently hold investments in entities that have ownership or leasehold interests in 5447 hotels, consisting of premium-branded hotels and resorts with approximately ~~32,000~~30,000 rooms, of which ~~over 86%~~88% are luxury and upper upscale (as defined by Smith Travel Research) and are located in prime U.S. markets and its territories. Our high-quality portfolio includes hotels mostly in major urban and convention areas, such as New York City, Washington, D.C., Chicago, San Francisco, Boston, New Orleans and Denver; and premier resorts in key leisure destinations, including Hawaii, Orlando, Key West and Miami Beach; ~~and hotels adjacent to major gateway airports, such as Los Angeles International, Boston Logan International and Miami International,~~ as well as hotels in select airport and suburban locations.

Our objective is to be the preeminent lodging real estate investment trust (“REIT”), focused on consistently delivering superior, risk-adjusted returns to stockholders through active asset management and a thoughtful external growth strategy while maintaining a strong and flexible balance sheet. As a pure-play real estate company with direct access to capital and independent financial resources, we believe our enhanced ability to implement compelling return on investment initiatives within our portfolio represents a significant embedded growth opportunity. Finally, given our scale and investment expertise, we believe we will be able to successfully execute single-asset and portfolio acquisitions and dispositions to further enhance the value and diversification of our assets throughout the lodging cycle, including potentially taking advantage of the economies of scale that could come from consolidation in the lodging REIT industry.

We operate our business through two operating segments, our consolidated hotels and unconsolidated hotels. Our consolidated hotels operating segment is our only reportable segment. Refer to Note ~~12:~~10: “Business Segment Information” in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information regarding our operating segments.

Recent Events

During the third quarter of ~~2021,~~2022, we sold two consolidated hotels, the ~~Hotel Adagio, Autograph Collection,~~Hilton Garden Inn Chicago/Oakbrook Terrace and the ~~Le Meridien San Francisco. Net~~Hilton Garden Inn LAX/El Segundo for gross proceeds ~~from those sales, along with~~of approximately $47 million. Additionally, in October 2022, the ~~sale~~joint ventures that own and operate the DoubleTree Hotel Las Vegas Airport sold the hotel for gross proceeds of ~~two hotels on June 30, 2021 were used to repay $419~~approximately $22 million, and our pro-rata share of ~~our term loan facility due in 2024 (“2019 Term Facility”) and to repay $13 million under our revolving credit facility (“Revolver”), which currently has no remaining balance outstanding.~~the gross proceeds was approximately $11 million.

~~COVID-19 Operational Update~~Outlook

The ~~global outbreak of a~~ novel strain of coronavirus and the disease it causes (“COVID-19”) and its aftermath have ~~had and continue~~continued to ~~have a significant effect on~~affect the ~~lodging~~hospitality industry and our business. ~~We cannot presently determine the extent or duration of the overall operational and financial effects that COVID-19 will have on our business. In~~Beginning in March ~~and April~~ 2020, travel restrictions and mandated closings of non-essential businesses were imposed, which resulted in temporary suspensions of operations at a majority of our hotels, all except two of which have now reopened. Temporary closings of restaurants and hotels as well as travel restrictions across entire regions also contributed to severely reduced overall lodging demand. The effects of COVID-19 continue to have a significant adverse effect on the hospitality industry, including our business; however, the increase inhotels. As vaccination rates across the country increased and ~~the easing~~COVID-19 related restrictions were eased or ~~removal of restrictions, quarantining, and “social distancing” mandates have resulted~~removed, we saw an increase in ~~increased~~ travel and hospitality spending ~~during~~beginning in the second ~~and third quarters~~quarter of ~~2021 as compared~~2021. During 2022, we continued to ~~the same periods in 2020. Despite the near-term reduction in demand due to the seasonal decline~~experience improvements in leisure, ~~travel~~group and business transient demand, despite macroeconomic and inflationary pressures, and by May 2022, we had reopened all previously suspended hotels.

We believe the ~~delay in return of business travel, coupled with concerns over the spread~~distribution of the ~~Delta variant,~~ ~~we expect a broader based recovery to resume~~COVID-19 vaccine during 2021 drove the ~~latter half of the fourth quarter of 2021 and into 2022 as leisure demand trends and group booking activity continue to improve.~~

~~Beginning~~improvement in ~~March 2020,~~traveler sentiment we experienced ~~a significant decline~~and resulted in an improvement in occupancy, Average Daily Rate (“ADR”) and Revenue per Available Room (“RevPAR”) ~~associated with~~during the ~~COVID-19 pandemic throughout our consolidated portfolio, which has resulted in a decline in our operating cash flow. As distribution~~second quarter of ~~the COVID-19 vaccine continues, we have seen improvement in traveler sentiment, and as a result, an improvement in occupancy, ADR and RevPAR during~~ 2021. Changes in our ~~2021~~2022 pro-forma metrics, which exclude results from properties disposed of and include results from properties acquired as of November ~~4, 2021,~~3, 2022, as compared to the same periods in 2021 and 2019, and ~~2020, respectively, and pro-forma~~2022 occupancy are as follows:

We believe demand will remain significantly reduced as long as mandatory travel restrictions, “social distancing” and cost-saving measures, such as the postponing or cancelling of non-essential business travel, remain in place or if these restrictions tighten due to virus variants. Although we were able to recommence operations at most of our previously suspended hotels, there remains considerable uncertainty as to both the time it will take to see travel and demand for lodging and travel-related experiences to fully recover. Further, uncertainty as to the timing of when remaining restrictions will be removed generally will make it more difficult to execute on our external growth strategy~~. The uncertainties surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic recovery, including the Delta variant, make it difficult to predict operating results for our hotels for the remainder of 2021, thus~~While there can be no assurances that we will not experience further ~~declines~~fluctuations in hotel revenues or earnings at our ~~hotels.~~

~~We and our hotel managers have taken various actions to mitigate the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including temporarily suspending operations at a majority of our~~ hotels beginning in March 2020, limiting capacity at our open hotels, deferring approximately $150 million of capital expenditures planned for 2020, reducing forecasted capital expenditures for maintenance projects to approximately $56 million for 2021 and suspending our dividend after the first quarter of 2020. Additionally, as a precautionary measure to increase liquidity and preserve financial flexibility, we fully drew on our Revolver in 2020 and completed three corporate bond offerings totaling $2.1 billion in 2020 and 2021 and five asset sales in 2021, the proceeds of which were used to fully repay the Revolver and our term loan due ~~December 2021 ("2016 Term Loan"), as well as a majority of the 2019 Term Facility.~~

Since originally suspending operations, we have commenced the phased reopening of all except two of our hotels and the timing of reopening our remaining suspended hotels will depend primarily on government restrictions imposed or re-imposed, recommendations of health officials and recovery in demand. The status of our hotels as of November 4, 2021 is as follows:

~~(1)~~ ~~The ground lease for the Embassy Suites Secaucus Meadowlands expired on October 31, 2021 and the property was turned over~~ to the ~~ground lessor on that date.~~

~~In addition, the operating environment for us~~uncertainty of COVID-19 and ~~our hotel managers has improved as government restrictions are lifted and demand for travel returns. Economic indicators~~other macroeconomic factors, such as ~~GDP growth, corporate earnings, consumer confidence~~inflation, increases in interest rates, potential economic slowdown or a recession and employment are highly correlated with lodging demand and have generally returned to pre-pandemic levels. We expect the significance of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the extent of its effect on our financial and operational results, to be dictated by, among other things, its duration, the success of efforts to contain it, the emergence of virus variants, efficacy, availability and deployment of vaccinations and other treatments to combat COVID-19, including public adoption rates of COVID-19 vaccines, and the effect of actions taken in response (such as travel advisories and restrictions and social distancing), including the extent and duration of such actions.

~~The extent and duration of the effects of COVID-19 are not yet clear. Despite cost reduction initiatives,~~geopolitical conflicts, we ~~do not~~ expect to ~~be able~~continue to ~~fully, or even materially, offset revenue losses from~~recover through the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, as states and cities have begun to lift quarantines and other similar restrictions, the timing and approach differs in different locations and we cannot predict whether our reopened hotels will be forced to suspend operations again in the future or be subjected to operating restrictions following further outbreaks or variantsremainder of ~~COVID-19.~~2022 based on current demand trends.

Key Business Metrics Used by Management

Occupancy

Occupancy represents the total number of room nights sold divided by the total number of room nights available at a hotel or group of hotels. Room nights available to guests have not been adjusted for suspended or reduced operations at certain of our hotels as a result of COVID-19. Occupancy measures the utilization of our hotels’ available capacity. ~~Management uses~~We use occupancy to gauge demand at a specific hotel or group of hotels in a given period. Occupancy levels also help us determine achievable ADR levels as demand for rooms increases or decreases.

Average Daily Rate

ADR (which we also refer to as rate) represents rooms revenue divided by total number of room nights sold in a given period. ADR measures average room price attained by a hotel and ADR trends provide useful information concerning the pricing environment and the nature of the customer base of a hotel or group of hotels. ADR is a commonly used performance measure in the hotel industry, and we use ADR to assess pricing levels that we are able to generate by type of customer, as changes in rates have a more pronounced effect on overall revenues and incremental profitability than changes in occupancy, as described above.

Revenue per Available Room

RevPAR represents rooms revenue divided by the total number of room nights available to guests for a given period. Room nights available to guests have not been adjusted for suspended or reduced operations at certain of our hotels as a result of COVID-19. We consider RevPAR to be a meaningful indicator of our performance as it provides a metric correlated to two primary and key factors of operations at a hotel or group of hotels: occupancy and ADR. RevPAR is also a useful indicator in measuring performance over comparable periods.

Comparable Hotels Data

Historically, we have presented certain data for our hotels on a comparable hotel basis as supplemental information for investors. We defined our comparable hotels as those that: (i) were active and operating in our portfolio since January 1st of the previous year; and (ii) have not sustained substantial property damage or business interruption, have not undergone large-scale capital projects or for which comparable results are not available. We presented comparable hotel results to help us and our investors evaluate the ongoing operating performance of our comparable hotels. However, given the significant effect of COVID-19 on most of our hotels and the lack of comparability to prior periods, we do not believe this supplemental information is useful to us or our investors at this time. Under “Results of Operations” below, we have provided information on the effects from dispositions and other factors to our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same periods in 2021. Change from other factors primarily relates to the effects of COVID-19 and subsequent ongoing recovery.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We also evaluate the performance of our business through certain other financial measures that are not recognized under U.S. GAAP. Each of these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered by investors as supplemental measures to GAAP performance measures such as total revenues, operating profit and net income.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA, presented herein, reflects net income (loss) excluding depreciation and amortization, interest income, interest expense, income taxes and also interest expense, income tax and depreciation and amortization included in equity in earnings (losses) from investments in affiliates.

Adjusted EBITDA, presented herein, is calculated as EBITDA, further adjusted to exclude:

•

Gains or losses on sales of assets for both consolidated and unconsolidated investments;

•

Costs associated with hotel acquisitions or dispositions expensed during the period;

•

Severance expense;

•

Share-based compensation expense;

•

Impairment losses and casualty gains or losses; and

•

Other items that we believe are not representative of our current or future operating performance.

Hotel Adjusted EBITDA measures hotel-level results before debt service, depreciation and corporate expenses for our consolidated hotels, which excludes hotels owned by unconsolidated affiliates, and is a key measure of our profitability. We present Hotel Adjusted EBITDA to help us and our investors evaluate the ongoing operating performance of our consolidated hotels.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA are not recognized terms under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) or other measures of financial performance or liquidity derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, our definitions of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

We believe that EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to investors about us and our financial condition and results of operations for the following reasons: (i) EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA are among the measures used by our management team to make day-to-day operating decisions and evaluate our operating performance between periods and between REITs by removing the effect of our capital structure (primarily interest expense) and asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) from our operating results; and (ii) EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties as a common performance measure to compare results or estimate valuations across companies in our industry.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered either in isolation or as a substitute for net income (loss) or other methods of analyzing our operating performance and results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

•

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our interest expense;

•

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our income tax expense;

•

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the effect on earnings or changes resulting from matters that we consider not to be indicative of our future operations; and

•

other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

We do not use or present EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA as measures of our liquidity or cash flow. These measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered either in isolation or as a substitute for cash flow or other methods of analyzing our cash flows and liquidity as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

•

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

•

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our indebtedness;

•

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the cash requirements to pay our taxes;

•

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect historical cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; and

•

although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements.

Because of these limitations, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as discretionary cash available to us to reinvest in the growth of our business or as measures of cash that will be available to us to meet our obligations.

Nareit FFO attributable to stockholders and Adjusted FFO attributable to stockholders

We present Nareit FFO attributable to stockholders and Nareit FFO per diluted share (defined as set forth below) as non-GAAP measures of our performance. We calculate funds from (used in) operations (“FFO”) attributable to stockholders for a given operating period in accordance with standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”), as net income (loss) attributable to stockholders (calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP), excluding depreciation and amortization, gains or losses on sales of assets, impairment, and the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles, plus adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures are calculated to reflect our pro rata share of the FFO of those entities on the same basis. As noted by Nareit in its December 2018 “Nareit Funds from Operations White Paper – 2018 Restatement,” since real estate values historically have risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors have considered presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. For these reasons, Nareit adopted the FFO metric in order to promote an industry-wide measure of REIT operating performance. We believe Nareit FFO provides useful information to investors regarding our operating performance and can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between REITs. Our presentation may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the terms in accordance with the current Nareit definition, or that interpret the current Nareit definition differently than we do. We calculate Nareit FFO per diluted share as our Nareit FFO divided by the number of fully diluted shares outstanding during a given operating period.

We also present Adjusted FFO attributable to stockholders and Adjusted FFO per diluted share when evaluating our performance because we believe that the exclusion of certain additional items described below provides useful supplemental information to investors regarding our ongoing operating performance. Management historically has made the adjustments detailed below in evaluating our performance and in our annual budget process. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted FFO provides useful supplemental information that is beneficial to an investor’s complete understanding of our operating performance. We adjust Nareit FFO attributable to stockholders for the following items, which may occur in any period, and refer to this measure as Adjusted FFO attributable to stockholders:

•

Costs associated with hotel acquisitions or dispositions expensed during the period;

•

Severance expense;

•

Share-based compensation expense; and

•

Other items that we believe are not representative of our current or future operating performance.

Results of Operations

The following items have had a significant effect on the year-over-year comparability of our operations and are illustrated further in the table of Hotel Revenues and Operating Expenses below:

•

Property Dispositions: ~~Between~~Since January 1, ~~2020 and September 30,~~ 2021, we disposed of ~~seven~~ten consolidated hotels. The results of operations of these hotels are included in our consolidated results only during our period of ownership. As a result of these dispositions, our revenues and operating expenses decreased for the three and nine months ended September 30, ~~2021~~2022 as compared to the same periods in ~~2020. The results of operations during our period of ownership of these hotels are included in our consolidated results.~~2021.

•

Ongoing COVID-19 Recovery: ~~Beginning~~Travel and hospitality spending began to improve beginning in ~~March 2020, we experienced a significant decline~~the second quarter of 2021 as vaccination rates increased, which resulted in ~~ADR,~~improved occupancy and ~~RevPAR due to COVID-19. The economic contraction resulting from~~ADR, and we reopened additional previously suspended hotels throughout 2021 and into the ~~spread~~second quarter of ~~COVID-19 has and is expected to continue to significantly affect our business.~~2022. Consequently, the results of our portfolio during the three and nine months ended September 30, ~~2021~~2022 will not be comparable to the same periods in ~~2020.~~2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

We seek to maintain sufficient amounts of liquidity with an appropriate balance of cash, debt and equity to provide financial flexibility. As of September 30, ~~2021,~~2022, we had total cash and cash equivalents of ~~$772~~$971 million and ~~$70~~$29 million of restricted cash. Restricted cash primarily consists of cash restricted as to use by our debt agreements and reserves for capital expenditures in accordance with certain of our management agreements. During the third quarter of 2022, $92 million previously held by the lenders of the HHV Mortgage Loan and the mortgage loan secured by the Hilton Denver City Center was released to us upon submission of the certificates reflecting compliance with financial ratios of these loans.

As ~~a result of the economic uncertainty resulting from the effects of COVID-19, including decreased occupancy, ADR and RevPAR at our hotels, as described~~discussed above under ~~“Recent Events”,~~“Outlook,” during 2022, we continued to experience improvements in leisure, group and business transient demand across our portfolio despite macroeconomic and inflationary pressures. While we expect ~~our cash flows for~~to continue to recover through the remainder of ~~2021to be significantly lower than prior to COVID-19. We have taken several steps to preserve capital~~2022 based on current demand trends, the potential for an economic slowdown or a recession may disrupt the positive momentum across our portfolio and ~~increase liquidity, including drawing $1 billion from~~ our Revolver in March 2020 (which we subsequently fully repaid), issuing $650 million of 2025 Senior Secured Notes in May 2020 (a portion of which was used to partially repay amounts outstanding under our Revolver and 2016 Term Loan), issuing $725 million of 2028 Senior Secured Notes in September 2020 (a portion of which was used to repay the 2016 Term Loan in full as well as a portion of the Revolver), issuing $750 million of 2029 Senior Secured Notes in May 2021 (a portion of which was used to partially repay the Revolver and the 2019 Term Facility), suspending our dividend following the payment of the first quarter 2020 dividend and implementing various cost saving initiatives at our hotels including temporary suspension of operations at certain hotels and selected restaurants and other businesses and outlets and reductions in forecasted capital expenditures for maintenance projects to approximately~~$56 million for 2021. We will continue to assess when the deferred capital expenditures will resume or if any of the deferred expenditures will be cancelled.~~industry.

In 2021, we sold five consolidated hotels, the W New Orleans – French Quarter, the Hotel Indigo San Diego Gaslamp Quarter, the Courtyard Washington Capitol Hill Navy Yard, the Hotel Adagio, Autograph Collection and the Le Meridien San Francisco. Net proceeds from the sales of these hotels were used to repay $37 million outstanding under the Revolver, which currently has no remaining balance outstanding, and to partially repay $419With $901 million of ~~the 2019 Term Facility.~~

~~We generated positive Hotel Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended September 30, 2021. With the~~ availability under our Revolver and existing cash and cash equivalents, ~~as a result of net proceeds from the offering of our Senior Secured Notes and the proceeds from the sales of two consolidated hotels in 2020 and the sale of five consolidated hotels in 2021,~~ we have sufficient liquidity to pay our ~~near-term~~debt maturities and to fund other ~~short-term~~ liquidity ~~obligations.~~obligations over the next year and beyond. We ~~are maintaining higher than historical cash levels due to~~have no significant maturities until the ~~continued uncertainty surrounding COVID-19, and we intend to do so until markets stabilize and demand in the lodging industry significantly recovers. In addition, we~~fourth quarter of 2023. We may also ~~may~~ take ~~other~~ actions to improve our liquidity, such as the issuance of additional debt, equity or

equity-linked securities, if we determine that doing so would be beneficial to us. However, there can no assurance as to the timing of any such issuance, which may be in the near term, or that any such additional financing will be completed on favorable terms, or at all. In 2020, we amended our credit facilities, which in addition to providing enhanced liquidity, ~~extending~~extended the maturity of the Revolver and ~~extending the waiver period for the testing of the financial covenants,~~ placed certain restrictions on the Company, including limitations on our ability to make dividends and distributions (except to the extent required to maintain REIT status, the ability to pay a $0.01 per share per fiscal quarter dividend and certain other agreed exceptions). In February 2022, we further amended our credit facilities, including extending the waiver period for the testing of the financial covenants, obtaining the ability to repurchase up to $250 million of shares as long as there is no outstanding balance on the Revolver (with the amount of any such repurchases increasing the minimum liquidity covenant, dollar for dollar, resulting in a minimum liquidity covenant amount as of September 30, 2022 of $418 million), and removing or decreasing certain restrictions on the Company related to capital expenditures, acquisitions and asset sales. Upon delivery of the second quarter 2022 compliance certificate in July 2022, which reflected compliance with all required covenants, we exited the waiver period under our credit facilities (one quarter earlier than the scheduled end of the waiver period). Upon exit of the waiver period, certain restrictions related to investments and the incurrence and repayment of debt and dividends and distributions ceased to apply. Additionally, the applicable margin on the interest rate of the Revolver and the 2019 Term Facility decreased by 1.20% and 0.95%, respectively.

Our known short-term liquidity requirements primarily consist of funds necessary to pay for operating expenses and other expenditures, including reimbursements to our hotel manager for payroll and related benefits, costs associated with the operation of our hotels, interest and scheduled principal payments on our outstanding indebtedness, capital expenditures for renovations and maintenance at our hotels, corporate general and administrative expenses and ~~when resumed,~~ dividends to our stockholders. Many of the other expenses associated with our hotels are relatively fixed, including portions of rent expense, property taxes and insurance. Since we generally are unable to decrease these costs significantly or rapidly when demand for our hotels decreases, the resulting decline in our revenues can have a greater adverse effect on our net cash flow, margins and profits. Our long-term liquidity requirements primarily consist of funds necessary to pay for scheduled debt maturities, capital improvements at our hotels (to the extent not cancelled or deferred), and costs associated with potential acquisitions. Despite the impact of COVID-19 on the global economy and our business, we were able to access the debt capital markets during the past year to complete three separate offerings of our Senior Secured Notes.

Our commitments to fund capital expenditures for renovations and maintenance at our hotels will be funded by cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash to the extent permitted by our lending agreements and cash flow from operations. We have construction contract commitments of approximately $121 million for capital expenditures at our properties, of which $47 million relates to the expansion project at the Bonnet Creek complex. The Bonnet Creek expansion project includes additional meeting space for the Signia by Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek and the Waldorf Astoria Orlando. Our contracts contain clauses that allow us to cancel all or some portion of the work. Additionally, we have established reserves for capital expenditures (“FF&E reserve”) in accordance with our management and certain debt agreements. Generally, these agreements require that we fund 4% of hotel revenues into an FF&E reserve, unless such amounts have been incurred. As a result of COVID-19, our hotel managers have temporarily delayed contributions to the FF&E reserve accounts and in addition, have allowed our hotels to utilize, as needed, their FF&E reserve for operating expenses at the respective hotels, as long as the hotels remain in compliance with debt agreements.

Our cash management objectives continue to be to maintain the availability of liquidity, minimize operational costs, make debt payments and fund our capital expenditure programs and future acquisitions. Further, we have an investment policy that is focused on the preservation of capital and maximizing the return on new and existing investments.

Stock Repurchase Program

In February ~~2019,~~2022, our Board of Directors authorized and approved a stock repurchase program allowing us to repurchase up to $300 million of our common stock over a ~~two-year~~24-month period, ~~which ended~~ending in February ~~2021. We have not renewed the stock repurchase program at this time.~~2024. Stock repurchases ~~were~~would be made through open market purchases, including through Rule 10b5-1 trading programs, in privately negotiated transactions, or in such other manner that ~~complied~~would comply with applicable securities ~~laws.~~laws and subject to compliance with existing debt agreements (which currently limits the repurchase of common stock to $250 million). The timing of any future stock repurchases and the number of shares to be repurchased ~~were dependent~~will depend upon prevailing market conditions and other factors. During the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31, 2020,~~September 30, 2022, we repurchased ~~4.6~~approximately 12.0 million shares of our common stock for a total purchase price of ~~$66 million.

Operating Activities

Cash flow from operating activities are primarily generated from the operating income generated at our hotels.

The ~~$179~~$434 million ~~decrease~~increase in net cash ~~used in~~provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, ~~2021~~2022 compared to the nine months ended September 30, ~~2020~~2021 was primarily due to an increase in cash from operations as a result of the increase in occupancy as our hotels continue to recover from the effects of COVID-19 ~~partially offset by an increase in cash paid for taxes of approximately $27 million, primarily associated~~coupled with ~~built-in gains from an asset sold in 2020, and an increase~~a decrease in cash paid for interest of ~~$25 million.~~$90 million primarily due to timing of payments.

Investing Activities

The $140 million in net cash provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily attributable to $244 million of net proceeds from the sale of five of our hotels and our ownership interests in the joint ventures that own and operate one hotel, partially offset by $104 million in capital expenditures.

The $425 million in net cash provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was primarily attributable to $454 million of net proceeds from the sale of five of our consolidated hotels, partially offset by $28 million in capital expenditures.

Financing Activities

The ~~$136~~$242 million in net cash ~~provided by investing~~used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, ~~2020~~2022 was primarily attributable to the ~~$207~~repurchase of approximately 12.0 million ~~in net proceeds received from the sale~~shares of ~~hotels, partially offset by $70 million in capital expenditures.~~

~~Financing Activities~~our common stock for $218 million.

The $469 million in net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was primarily attributable to $1.2 billion of debt repayments and $15 million of debt issuance costs, partially offset by the issuance of $750 million of 2029 Senior Secured Notes and the $14 million mortgage loan secured by the Doubletree Spokane.

The $921 million in net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily attributable to borrowings of $1 billion from our Revolver as a result of COVID-19, the issuance of our $650 million 2025 Senior Secured Notes and $725 million of 2028 Senior Secured Notes, partially offset by $1.1 billion of debt repayments, $241 million in dividends paid and the repurchase of 4.5 million shares of our common stock for $66 million.

Dividends

As a REIT, we are required to distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gain, and after utilization of any NOL carryforward to our stockholders on an annual basis. Therefore, as a general matter, we intend to make distributions of all, or substantially all, of our REIT taxable income (including net capital gains) to our stockholders, and, as a result, we will not be required to pay tax on our income. Consequently, before consideration of the use of any NOL carryforward, it is unlikely that we will be able to retain substantial cash balances that could be used to meet our liquidity needs from our annual taxable income. Instead, we will need to meet these needs from external sources of capital and amounts, if any, by which our cash flow generated from operations exceeds taxable income. ~~However, as a precautionary measure in light of COVID-19, after~~After the payment of the first quarter dividend in 2020, we suspended our quarterly dividend as a precautionary measure in light of COVID-19; in March 2022, our Board of Directors approved and reinstated our quarterly cash dividend.

26We declared the following dividends to holders of our common stock during 2022:


Record Date	Payment Date	Dividend per Share
March 31, 2022	April 15, 2022	$	0.01
June 30, 2022	July 15, 2022	$	0.01
September 30, 2022	October 17, 2022	$	0.01

Debt

As of September 30, ~~2021,~~2022, our total indebtedness was approximately $4.7 billion, including approximately $2.1 billion of our Senior Secured Notes, as disclosed above, and excluding approximately ~~$225~~$170 million of our share of debt from investments in affiliates. Substantially all the debt of such unconsolidated affiliates is secured solely by the affiliates’ assets or is guaranteed by other partners without recourse to us. Refer to Note 7:6: “Debt” in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

~~Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements~~

~~Our off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2021 included construction contract commitments of approximately $116 million~~for capital expenditures at our properties, of which $78 million relates to the expansion project at the Bonnet Creek complex. The Bonnet Creek expansion project includes additional meeting space for the Signia by Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek and the Waldorf Astoria Orlando. Our contracts contain clauses that allow us to cancel all or some portion of the work. If cancellation of a contract occurred, our commitment would be any costs incurred up to the cancellation date, in addition to any costs associated with the discharge of the contract.

Critical Accounting ~~Policies and~~ Estimates

The preparation of our financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of our financial statements, the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods and the related disclosures in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes. We have discussed those ~~policies and~~ estimates that we believe are critical and require the use of complex judgment in their application in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February ~~26, 2021.~~18, 2022. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies or the methods or assumptions we apply.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are exposed to market risk primarily from changes in interest rates, which may affect our future income, cash flows and fair value, depending on changes to interest rates. In certain situations, we may seek to reduce cash flow volatility associated with changes in interest rates by entering into financial arrangements intended to provide a hedge against a portion of the risks associated with such volatility. We continue to have exposure to such risks to the extent they are not hedged.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management has evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”), as required by paragraph (b) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of September 30, ~~2021,~~2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports filed or submitted with the Securities and Exchange Commission (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We are involved in various claims and lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of business, some of which include claims for substantial sums, including proceedings involving tort and other general liability claims, employee claims and consumer protection claims. Most occurrences involving liability, claims of negligence and employees are covered by insurance with solvent insurance carriers. For those matters not covered by insurance, which include commercial matters, we recognize a liability when we believe the loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated. The ultimate results of claims and litigation cannot be predicted with certainty. We believe we have adequate reserves against such matters. We currently believe that the ultimate outcome of such lawsuits and proceedings will not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity. However, depending on the amount and timing, an unfavorable resolution of some or all of these matters could materially affect our future results of operations in a particular period.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in response to “Part I – Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.
