NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

Note 1: Organization and Recent Events

Organization

Park Hotels & Resorts Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company” and, exclusive of any subsidiaries, "Park Parent") is a Delaware corporation that owns a portfolio of premium-branded hotels and resorts primarily located in prime city center and resort locations. On January 3, 2017, Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc. (“Hilton”) completed the spin-off of a portfolio of hotels and resorts that established Park Hotels & Resorts Inc. as an independent, publicly traded company.

On May 5, 2019, the Company, PK Domestic Property LLC, an indirect subsidiary of the Company (“PK Domestic”), and PK Domestic Sub LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of PK Domestic (“Merger Sub”) entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Chesapeake Lodging Trust (“Chesapeake”). On September 18, 2019, pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Chesapeake merged with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”) and each of Chesapeake’s common shares of beneficial interest, $0.01 par value per share, was converted into $11.00 in cash and 0.628 of a share of our common stock. NaN fractional shares of our common stock were issued in the Merger. The value of any fractional interests to which a Chesapeake shareholder would otherwise have been entitled was paid in cash.

We are a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for United States (“U.S.”) federal income tax purposes. We have been organized and operated, and we expect to continue to be organized and operate, in a manner to qualify as a REIT. To qualify as a REIT, we must satisfy requirements related to, among other things, the real estate qualification of sources of our income, the real estate composition and values of our assets, the amounts we distribute to our stockholders annually and the diversity of ownership of our stock. From the date of our spin-off from Hilton, Park Intermediate Holdings LLC (our “Operating Company”), directly or indirectly, has held all our assets and has conducted all of our operations. Park Parent owned 100% of the interests in our Operating Company until December 31, 2021 when the business undertook an internal reorganization transitioning our structure to a traditional umbrella partnership REIT structure ("UPREIT"). Effective January 1, 2022, Park Parent became the managing member of our Operating Company and PK Domestic REIT Inc., a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Park Parent, became a ~~member.~~member in our Operating Company. We may, in the future, issue interests in (or from) our Operating Company in connection with acquiring hotels, ~~financing,~~financings, issuance of equity compensation or other purposes.

COVID-19 Update

The novel strain of coronavirus and the disease it causes (“COVID-19”) have ~~had and continue~~continued to ~~have an effect on~~affect the hospitality industry and our business. Beginning in March 2020, we experienced a significant decline in occupancy and Revenue per Available Room (“RevPAR”) associated with COVID-19 throughout our portfolio, which resulted in a decline in our operating cash flow. The increase in vaccination rates across the country and the easing or removal of government restrictions, quarantining and “social distancing” mandates resulted in increased travel and hospitality spending beginning in the second quarter of 2021. ~~Although concerns over~~During the ~~spread~~second quarter of ~~the Omicron variant reduced~~2022, we continued to witness robust leisure demand ~~in the first six weeks of the quarter, we witnessed recovery beginning in mid-February 2022 as COVID-19 cases declined across the country~~ and ~~business travel accelerated, and saw the return of group demand. We expect positive momentum to continue for our leisure focused hotels and increased demand for both~~an acceleration in group and business transient ~~travel~~demand and have now reopened all of our previously suspended hotels following the reopening of Parc 55 San Francisco – a Hilton Hotel on May 19, 2022. However, the potential for an economic slowdown or a recession during the ~~remainder~~second half of 2022 may disrupt the ~~year.~~positive momentum across our portfolio and our industry.

Note 2: Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect our financial position, results of operations and cash flows, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). We have condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring items, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim periods. All significant intercompany transactions and balances within the financial statements have been eliminated.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2021 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 18, 2022.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of full year performance.

Reclassifications

Certain line items on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2021 have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on February 18, 2022, contains a discussion of the significant accounting policies. There have been no significant changes to our significant accounting policies since December 31, 2021.

Note 7:8: 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 ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, ~~2,315,323~~2,313,502 shares of common stock remain available for future issuance. The 2017 Director Plan provides that a maximum of 950,000 shares of our common stock may be issued, and as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, ~~484,583~~418,645 shares of common stock remain available for future issuance. For the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and 2021, we recognized $45 million and $64 million of share-based compensation expense, ~~respectively.~~respectively, and $9 million and $10 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, unrecognized compensation expense was $2925 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of ~~2.0~~1.7 years. The total fair value of shares vested (calculated as the number of shares multiplied by the vesting date share price) during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and 2021 was $67 million and $1417 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 ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022:

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 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 ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, 6 of the 8 Share Price Targets were achieved and thus 75% of the awards granted were vested.

The following table provides a summary of PSUs for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022:


	Number of Shares			Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value		Number of Shares			Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value
Unvested at January 1, 2022		972,074			22.59		972,074		$	22.59

Unvested at June 30, 2022							1,205,375		$	20.70

The grant date fair values of the awards that are subject to the achievement of market conditions based on total shareholder return were determined using a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model with the following assumptions:

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

Note 8:9: Earnings Per Share

(1) Per share amounts are calculated based on unrounded ~~numbers.~~ numbers and are calculated independently for each period presented.

Certain of our outstanding equity awards were excluded from the above calculation of EPS for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and 2021 because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

Note 9:10: Business Segment Information

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, we have 2 operating segments, our consolidated hotels and unconsolidated hotels. Our unconsolidated hotels operating segment does not meet the definition of a reportable ~~segment;~~segment, thus our consolidated hotels is our onlyreportable 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 ~~10:~~11: Commitments and Contingencies

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, we had outstanding commitments under third-party contracts of approximately $~~118~~125 million for capital expenditures at our properties, of which $7062 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 ~~March 31,~~June 30, 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. This amount could change as the litigation of the ATO’s claim progresses.

~~Note 11: Subsequent Events~~

~~In April 2022, we sold the~~ ~~131-room Hampton Inn & Suites Memphis – Shady Grove for gross proceeds of $11.5~~ ~~million or $88,000~~ ~~per key.~~

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 actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its effects, the emergences of virus variants and 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. 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, 2021 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, 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~~resorts with significant underlying real estate value. We currently hold investments in entities that have ownership or leasehold interests in 5349 hotels, consisting of premium-branded hotels and resorts with ~~approximately 32,000~~over 30,000 rooms, of which over 87% are luxury and u~~pper~~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 in major urban and convention areas, such as New York City, Washington, D.C., Chicago, San Francisco, Boston, New Orleans and Denver; 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 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 9:10: “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.

~~COVID-19 Operational Update~~

Recent Events

During the second quarter of 2022, we sold three consolidated hotels, the Hampton Inn & Suites Memphis - Shady Grove, the Hilton Chicago/Oak Brook Suites and the Homewood Suites by Hilton Seattle Convention Center Pike Street for gross proceeds of approximately $102 million. We also sold our ownership interests in the joint ventures that own and operate the Hilton San Diego Bayfront for gross proceeds of $157 million, which includes $55 million of our interest in the debt in the joint venture. Additionally, we sold the Hilton Garden Inn Chicago/Oakbrook Terrace in July 2022 for gross proceeds of approximately $9 million.

Outlook

The ~~global outbreak of a~~ novel strain of coronavirus and the disease it causes (“COVID-19”) ~~had a significant effect on~~have continued to 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. Beginning in March 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. We have reopened all our hotels except the 1,024-room Parc 55 San Francisco – a Hilton Hotel, the reopening of which has been accelerated to May 19, 2022, based on improving demand trends in the San Francisco market. 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 an adverse effect on the hospitality industry, including our business; however, the increase inAs vaccination rates across the country increased and ~~the easing~~COVID-19 related restrictions were eased or ~~removal of restrictions, quarantining, and “social distancing” mandates resulted~~removed, we saw an increase in ~~increased~~ travel and hospitality spending beginning in the second quarter of 2021. ~~Despite a near-term reduction~~During the second quarter of 2022, we continued to witness robust leisure demand and an acceleration in group and business transient demand, ~~due to concerns over~~despite inflationary pressures in the ~~spread of the Omicron variant in January 2022, which resulted in additional group cancellations~~market, and ~~cautious business travel sentiment, coupled with the seasonal decline in leisure travel~~have now reopened all our previously suspended hotels following the ~~holiday season and~~reopening of Parc 55 San Francisco – a Hilton Hotel on May 19, 2022.

We believe the distribution of the COVID-19 vaccine during 2021 drove the improvement in traveler sentiment we experienced and resulted in an improvement in occupancy, Average Daily Rate (“ADR”) and Revenue per Available Room (“RevPAR”) during the second quarter of 2021. Changes in our 2022 pro-forma metrics, which exclude results from properties disposed of and include results from properties acquired as of ~~March 31,~~August 4, 2022, as compared to the same periods in 2021 and 2019, and 2022 occupancy are as follows:

We believe demand will remain somewhat reduced as long as mandatory travel restrictions and cost-saving or other measures, such as the postponing or cancelling of non-essential business travel, remain in place or if these restrictions tighten or demand for travel becomes depressed due to the emergence of virus variants. Although we were able to recommence operations at all except one of our previously suspended hotels and further restrictions have been lifted following the spread of the Omicron variant, if demand does not fully recover, or ifIf additional virus variants ~~increase or~~emerge causing re-imposed widespread travel restrictions, ~~tighten,~~ we may be required to suspend operations at ~~additional~~some or all of our hotels. Further, uncertainty as to when demand will fully recover generally will make it more difficult to execute on our external growth strategy. The uncertainties surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic recovery, including new variants, make it difficult to predict operating results for our hotels for the remainder of 2022, thusWhile there can be no assurances that we will not experience further fluctuations in hotel revenues or earnings at our ~~hotels.~~

~~The operating environment for us~~hotels due to the uncertainty of COVID-19 and ~~our hotel managers has improved as government restrictions were lifted and demand for travel returned. 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~~geopolitical conflicts, we expect to continue to recover through the remainder of 2022 based on current 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 of 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.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. 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 six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 as compared to the same ~~period~~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: Since January 1, 2021, we disposed of ~~five~~eight consolidated hotels. As a result of these dispositions, our revenues and operating expenses decreased for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 as compared to the same ~~period~~periods in 2021. The results of operations during our period of ownership of these hotels are included in our consolidated results.

•

Ongoing COVID-19 Recovery: Travel and hospitality spending began to improve beginning in the second quarter of 2021 as vaccination rates increased, which resulted in improved occupancy, and we reopened additional previously suspended hotels throughout ~~2021.~~2021 and into the second quarter of 2022. Consequently, the results of our portfolio during the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 will not be comparable to the same ~~period~~periods in 2021.

Non-operating Income and Expenses

Interest expense

Interest expense decreased during the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 compared to the same ~~period~~periods in 2021 as a result of the partial repayment of our unsecured delayed draw term loan facility ("2019 Term Facility") during the second and third quarters of 2021 and the full repayment of our revolving credit facility ("Revolver") during 2021, partially offset by the issuance of $750 million of 4.875% senior secured notes due 2029 ("2029 Senior Secured Notes") in May 2021.Interest expense associated with our debt for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and 2021 were as follows:

~~(3)~~ In May and September 2020, Park Intermediate Holdings LLC (our “Operating Company”), PK Domestic Property LLC, an indirect subsidiary of the Company (“PK Domestic”), and PK Finance Co-Issuer Inc. (“PK Finance”) issued an aggregate of $650 million of senior secured notes due 2025 (“2025 Senior Secured Notes”) and an aggregate of $725 million of senior secured notes due 2028 (“2028 Senior Secured Notes”), respectively (collectively with the 2029 Senior Secured Notes, the ~~“Senior~~"Senior Secured ~~Notes”~~Notes").

Other gain (loss), net

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we recognized a gain of $92 million, which is primarily due to the sale of our ownership interests in the joint ventures that own and operate the Hilton San Diego Bayfront. Refer to Note 3: "Dispositions and Assets Held for Sale" for additional information.

Income tax expense

Income tax expense is primarily related to taxable income generated by our taxable REIT subsidiaries, offset by the utilization of net operating losses.

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 ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, we had total cash and cash equivalents of ~~$639~~$758 million and ~~$78~~$109 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. We currently have higher than historical balances in restricted cash due to certain of our mortgage loans that require deposits of excess cash with the lender when certain financial ratios are not met, which occurred as a result of the effect from COVID-19 on operating results at the associated hotels. We expect $83 million currently held by the lenders of the HHV Mortgage Loan and the mortgage loan secured by the Hilton Denver City Center will be released to us during the third quarter 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, as described~~discussed above under ~~“COVID-19 Operational Update”,~~“Outlook,” we continued to witness increases in demand across our portfolio during the second quarter of 2022, and we expect our cash flows ~~through at least~~to continue to improve throughout 2022 if these positive trends continue. However, the potential for an economic slowdown or a recession during the second ~~quarter~~half of 2022~~to be lower than prior to COVID-19. We~~ may disrupt the positive momentum across our portfolio and our hotel managers took various actions to mitigate the effects of COVID-19, 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 ofindustry.

which was used to partially repay amounts outstanding under our Revolver and our term loan due December 2021 ("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 (which was recently reinstated for the first quarter of 2022), and implementing various cost saving initiatives at our hotels including temporary suspension of operations at certain hotels (all of which have reopened except one) and selected restaurants and other businesses and outlets and reductions in capital expenditures for maintenance projects to approximately~~$44 million for 2021.~~

~~We generated positive Hotel Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, the fourth such consecutive quarter since the start of the pandemic.~~ With $901 million of availability under our Revolver and existing cash and cash equivalents, we have sufficient liquidity to pay our debt maturities and to fund other liquidity obligations over the next year and beyond. Only 1% of our total outstanding debt is

maturing in 2022. We may also take 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, extended the maturity of the Revolver and 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 ~~and term loan~~ 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 ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 of ~~$261~~$418 million), and removing or decreasing certain restrictions on the Company related to capital expenditures, acquisitions and asset sales. ~~Refer~~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 ~~Note 5: "Debt" in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.~~investments and the incurrence, repayment of debt and dividends and distributions ceased to apply.

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 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.

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 ~~$118~~$125 million for capital expenditures at our properties, of which ~~$70~~$62 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.

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 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 24-month period, ending in February 2024. Stock repurchases would be made through open market purchases, including through Rule 10b5-1 trading programs, in privately negotiated transactions, or in such other manner that would comply with applicable securities 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 will depend upon prevailing market conditions and other factors. During the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, we repurchased approximately ~~3.4~~8.5 million and 12.0 million shares of our common stock, respectively, for a total purchase price of ~~$61 million. As~~$157 million and $218 million, respectively, and as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, ~~$239~~$82 million remained available for stock repurchases.

Sources and Uses of Our Cash and Cash Equivalents

(1) Percentage change is not meaningful.

Operating Activities

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

The ~~$115~~$352 million increase in net cash provided by operating activities for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 compared to the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 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.

Investing Activities

The ~~$18~~$147 million ~~increase~~ in net cash ~~used in~~provided by investing activities for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 ~~compared~~was primarily attributable to $199 million of net proceeds from the sale of three of our hotels and our ownership interests in the joint ventures that own and operate one hotel, partially offset by $52 million in capital expenditures.

The $154 million in net cash provided by investing activities for the six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 was primarily ~~due~~attributable to ~~a $16~~$168 million ~~increase~~of net proceeds from the sale of three of our consolidated hotels, partially offset by $13 million in capital ~~expenditures, of which $6 million related to the expansion project at the Bonnet Creek complex.~~expenditures.

Financing Activities

The ~~$62~~$234 million ~~increase~~ in net cash used in financing activities for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 was primarily attributable to the repurchase of ~~3.4~~approximately 12.0 million shares of our common stock for ~~$61~~$218 million.

The $30 million in net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily attributable to $775 million 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.

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. To avoid paying tax on our income, we intend to make distributions of all, or substantially all, of our REIT taxable income (including net capital gains) to our stockholders. Therefore, as a general matter, 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. 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.

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

Debt

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 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 5:6: “Debt” in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

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, 2021, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 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 ~~March 31,~~June 30, 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, 2021.
