Summary of Residential Activity
(in thousands)
On January 9, 2006, we purchased a 45% interest in a joint venture that owns the North Beach Venture development adjacent to the Hotel del Coronado. We account for this investment using the equity method of accounting. We own a 31% interest in a joint venture that is developing the Four Seasons Residence Club Punta Mita (RCPM) adjacent to the Four Seasons Punta Mita Resort. We account for this investment using the equity method of accounting. In addition, we engage in certain activities related to potential development projects such as condominium-hotel units, fractional ownership units and other for-sale residential units. During the third quarter of 2007, a potential condominium-hotel project at the Fairmont Chicago was delayed indefinitely due to market conditions. We recorded a charge of $1.2 million related to the costs of this project.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to REIT hotel income, six other non-GAAP financial measures are presented for the Company that we believe are useful to management and investors as key measures of our operating performance: Funds from Operations (FFO); FFO - Fully Diluted; Comparable FFO; Earnings Before Interest Expense, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA); Adjusted EBITDA; and Comparable EBITDA. A reconciliation of these measures to net income (loss) available to common shareholders, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, is set forth in the following tables.
We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, which adopted a definition of FFO in order to promote an industry-wide standard measure of REIT operating performance. NAREIT defines FFO as net income (or loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding (losses) or gains from sales of depreciable property plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for our portion of these items related to unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We also present FFO - Fully Diluted, which is FFO plus minority interest expense on convertible minority interests. We also present Comparable FFO, which is FFO - Fully Diluted excluding the impact of any gains or losses on early extinguishment of debt, impairment losses, foreign currency exchange gains or losses and other non-recurring charges. We believe that the presentation of FFO, FFO - Fully Diluted and Comparable FFO provides useful information to management and investors regarding our results of operations because they are measures of our ability to fund capital expenditures and expand our business. In addition, FFO is widely used in the real estate industry to measure operating performance without regard to items such as depreciation and amortization. We also present Comparable FFO per diluted share as a non-GAAP measure of our performance. We calculate Comparable FFO per diluted share for a given operating period as our Comparable FFO (as defined above) divided by the weighted average of fully diluted shares outstanding. Comparable FFO per diluted share, in accordance with NAREIT, is adjusted for the effects of dilutive securities. Dilutive securities may include shares granted under share-based compensation plans, operating partnership units and exchangeable debt securities. No effect is shown for securities that are anti-dilutive.
EBITDA represents net income (loss) available to common shareholders excluding: (i) interest expense, (ii) income tax expense, including deferred income tax benefits and expenses applicable to our foreign subsidiaries and income taxes applicable to sale of assets; and (iii) depreciation and amortization. EBITDA also excludes interest expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization of our equity method investments. EBITDA is presented on a full participation basis, which means we have assumed conversion of all convertible minority interests of our operating partnership into our common stock and includes preferred dividends. We believe this treatment of minority interest provides more useful information for management and our investors and appropriately considers our current capital structure. We also present Adjusted EBITDA, which eliminates the effect of realizing deferred gains on our sale leasebacks. We also present Comparable EBITDA, which eliminates the effect of gains or losses on sales of assets, early extinguishment of debt, impairment losses, foreign currency exchange gains or losses and other non-recurring charges. We believe EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Comparable EBITDA are useful to management and investors in evaluating our operating performance because they provide management and investors with an indication of our ability to incur and service debt, to satisfy general operating expenses, to make capital expenditures and to fund other cash needs or reinvest cash into our business. We also believe they help management and investors meaningfully evaluate and compare the results of our operations from period to period by removing the impact of our asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) from our operating results. Our management also uses EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Comparable EBITDA as measures in determining the value of acquisitions and dispositions.
We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our definitions of FFO, FFO - Fully Diluted, Comparable FFO, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Comparable EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other companies, since not all companies calculate these non-GAAP measures in the same manner. FFO, FFO - Fully Diluted, Comparable FFO, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Comparable EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative measure of our net income or operating performance. FFO, FFO - Fully Diluted, Comparable FFO, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Comparable EBITDA may include funds that may not be available for our discretionary use due to functional requirements to conserve funds for capital expenditures and property acquisitions and other commitments and uncertainties. Although we believe that FFO, FFO - Fully Diluted, Comparable FFO, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Comparable EBITDA can enhance your understanding of our financial condition and results of operations, these non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed individually, are not necessarily a better indicator of any trend as compared to comparable GAAP measures such as net income (loss) available to common shareholders. In addition, you should be aware that adverse economic and market conditions might negatively impact our cash flow. Below, we have provided a quantitative reconciliation of FFO, FFO - Fully Diluted, Comparable FFO, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Comparable EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP financial performance measure, which is net income (loss) available to common shareholders, and provide an explanatory description by footnote of the items excluded from FFO, FFO - Fully Diluted, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA.
