Unit Growth
The number of domestic Choice hotels on-line, excluding franchises obtained in the acquisition of Suburban Extended Stay Hotels, grew by 4.3% to 3,961 (319,357 rooms on-line) as of September 30, 2005, from 3,796 (306,797 rooms on-line) as of the same period a year ago. Net domestic franchise additions in third quarter 2005 were 35, compared to 73 for the same period in 2004. For the first nine months of this year, net domestic franchise additions were 127, compared to 160 for the same period a year ago. Net domestic franchise additions declined as a result of franchise terminations increasing from 120 in 2004 to 174 in 2005.

On September 28, 2005, the Company acquired the Suburban Extended Stay Hotels brand representing 67 units open and operating in the United States. Acquisition of this brand increased the Company’s domestic units under contract to 4,028 units a 6.1% increase over the number of units at September 30, 2004.
Choice executed 143 new domestic hotel franchise contracts representing 11,757 rooms in third quarter 2005, compared to 122 new contracts representing 10,162 rooms for the same period a year ago,

These increases in executed contracts and an increase in the number of existing franchise relicensings have contributed to a 17% and 23% increase in initial franchise and relicensing fees for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, respectively, over the same periods of the prior year.
For third quarter 2005, 46 contracts for new construction hotel franchises, representing 3,435 rooms, were executed, compared to 40 contracts, representing 2,722 rooms for the same period a year ago, increases of approximately 15% and 26%, respectively.

Use of Free Cash Flow
The company has consistently used the free cash flow (cash flow from operations less capital expenditures) generated from its operations to return value to shareholders. This is primarily achieved through share repurchases and dividends.

5
2005 and through October 27, 2005, the company has purchased an additional 0.6 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $32.02 per share for a total cost of $17.9 million. The company has remaining authorization to purchase up to 2.3 million shares. Since Choice announced its stock repurchase program on June 25, 1998 and through October 27, 2005, the company has purchased 66.4 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $10.61 per share and a total cost of $704.5 million.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, the company paid $21.8 million of cash dividends to shareholders. On September 14, 2005, the Company’s board of directors approved an increase in the quarterly cash dividend on the common stock from $0.1125 to $0.13 per common share payable on October 21, 2005 to shareholders of record on October 7, 2005. This increase will result in an annual dividend rate per share of $0.52, a 15.5% increase from the previous annual dividend rate of $0.45.
The company expects to continue to return value to its shareholders through a combination of share repurchases and dividends.
Fourth Quarter & Full Year 2005
The company’s fourth quarter diluted EPS is expected to be $0.29 to $0.31. These fourth quarter estimates assume the existing share count and RevPAR growth of approximately 5% to 6%. Full year adjusted diluted EPS is expected to be $1.22 to $1.24. Adjusted diluted EPS excludes the 3rd quarter 2005 tax effects of the repatriation of foreign earnings and resolution of tax contingencies. Full year diluted EPS is expected to be $1.27 to $1.29. These estimates assume the existing share count and RevPAR growth for full year 2005 of approximately 5% to 6%.
Adjusted diluted earnings per share, franchising revenues, franchising margins and free cash flows are non-GAAP financial measurements. These financial measurements are presented as supplemental disclosures because they are used by management in reviewing and analyzing the company’s performance. This information should not be considered as an alternative to any measure of performance as promulgated under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
6
(GAAP), such as diluted earnings per share, total revenues, operating income margins and cash flows from operations. The company’s calculation of these measurements may be different from the calculation used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited.
