CNL LIFESTYLE PROPERTIES ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER RESULTS
(ORLANDO, Fla.) August 15, 2011 – CNL Lifestyle Properties, Inc., a non-traded real estate investment trust (the “Company”), today announced its operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2011. The Company owns a portfolio of 155 lifestyle properties, 90 of which are wholly-owned and run by operators under long-term triple-net leases with a weighted average lease rate of 8.7 percent, 22 of which are managed by independent operators, and 43 of which are owned through joint venture arrangements. Of its joint venture investments, 14 are leased and 29 are managed by independent operators. Diversification by asset class is 23 percent ski, 20 percent golf, 17 percent senior living, 15 percent attractions, 6 percent marinas and 19 percent additional lifestyle properties, including lodging.
Financial Highlights
Total revenue was up 49 percent totaling $106.5 million and up 22 percent totaling $189.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to $71.5 million and $155.1 million for the comparable periods in 2010. Total operating expenses were up 62 percent totaling $107.7 million and up 46 percent totaling $196.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to $66.3 million and $134.8 million for the comparable periods in 2010. Net loss was $15.7 million and $36.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to net loss of $4.5 million and net income of $2.3 million for the comparable periods in 2010. FFO and MFFO per share totaled $0.12 and $0.13 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to $0.28 and $0.25 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2010.
The increase in revenue is primarily attributable to attractions that were converted from leased properties to managed properties where we now record property-level gross revenues rather than the straight line rents as was the case in 2010. We also record all the property-level operating expenses for our managed properties, which contributed principally to the net loss for the quarter and six months as our attractions properties are operated seasonally and only began their peak operating season in June. Other factors contributing to the Company’s decrease in earnings, FFO and MFFO were additional costs from borrowings, the majority of which has not yet been invested, and initial transactions costs related to acquisitions.
As was anticipated, beginning in January of 2011 we began to experience the significant effects of seasonality on our operating results due to the transition of the 17 attractions properties from leased structures to managed structures during the middle of their seasonally slow period when our largest parks were closed for the winter. This continued into the second quarter until June when the larger properties began their first full month of significant operations. Accordingly, our unaudited condensed consolidated results of operations, including our FFO and MFFO, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 are not directly comparable. The reduction in FFO of $0.16 per share from $0.28 per share to $0.12 per share from the first six months of 2010 compared to the first six months of 2011 was primarily a result of this transition, as $20 million in rental revenue recorded during the first six months of 2010 was replaced with off-season net operating losses of approximately $8 million, representing a total negative fluctuation of $28 million, or $0.09 per share. In June 2011, when our larger attractions properties experienced their first full month of operations, these properties produced net operating income of $12.4 million and historically July through September will bring in the majority of the remaining income from these properties for the year.
Total assets as of June 30, 2011 exceeded $2.9 billion. The following table presents selected comparable financial data through June 30, 2011 (in millions except ratios and per share data):

“I am very encouraged by the gains that CNL Lifestyle Properties made as we ended the second quarter, particularly in June, which we believe will continue into the third quarter as our attractions hit their peak operating season,” said Joe Johnson, senior vice president and chief financial officer of CNL Lifestyle Properties.
Portfolio Performance
Overall property-level revenues and EBITDA increased by 8.2 percent and 8.4 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2011 versus 2010 and increased 6.2 percent and 4.5 percent, respectively, for the six-month period.

CNL Lifestyle Properties Announces Second Quarter Results
Gains in property-level performance are attributable to general improvements in consumer confidence, favorable weather conditions and aggressive marketing and promotional strategies from our attractions operators.
“Due to early season weather our attractions portfolio has been off to a good start,” said Curt Caffey, senior vice president, asset management for CNL Financial Group. “One of the core principles of our investment thesis is that people are willing to spend money on entertainment and creating lifelong memories. Our attractions are a key piece of this thesis, and we are certainly seeing that idea bear out as families continue to visit our properties.”
The largest gain came in additional lifestyle properties sector due to a strong ski season at the Mt. Washington Resort and aggressive marketing by the manager of that property, Omni Hotels & Resorts. Our golf properties continue to be challenged, in line with the entire golf industry, due to the weak economy.
Capital Transactions
The beginning of the second quarter was marked with a significant infusion of cash with approximately $387 million in net proceeds from our issuance of unsecured senior notes and an additional $40 million in proceeds raised through our public offering of common stock, which was completed on April 9, 2011.
“We have a significant amount of cash on hand and continue to look for new investment opportunities for our shareholders that fit our thesis of investing in a wide variety of properties that meet our demographically driven focus,” said Byron Carlock, CEO and president of CNL Lifestyle Properties.
Acquisitions
On August 2, 2011 we invested $19 million in a new joint venture with Sunrise Senior Living, Inc. for a 70 percent interest in six senior living properties valued at approximately $131 million and debt of approximately $104.5 million. This is the Company’s second venture with Sunrise, which will continue to manage the properties along with the 29 senior living properties acquired in a joint venture with Sunrise earlier this year.
Distributions
For the six months ended June 30, 2011, CNL Lifestyle Properties declared and paid distributions of approximately $92.5 million. The board of directors declared distributions of $0.0521 per share to stockholders of record at the close of business on July 1, 2011 and August 1, 2011. On an annualized basis, this distribution represents an annual percentage rate of 6.25 percent. These distributions are to be paid by September 2011.

FOOTNOTE:
(1) | This amount represents our share of the FFO adjustments allowable under the NAREIT definition (primarily depreciation) multiplied by the percentage of income or loss recognized under the HLBV method. |
Total FFO and FFO per share was approximately $19.7 million and $35.1 million or $0.06 and $0.12 for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively. Comparably, FFO and FFO per share was approximately $30.3 million and $71.1 million or $0.12 and $0.28 for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. The decrease in FFO and FFO per share is attributable principally to the replacement of rent revenues of approximately $20.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 with property net operating losses of approximately $7.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 as a result of the transition of 17 attraction properties and one additional lifestyle property from lease structures to managed structures during their off-season, representing a period over period change of approximately $28.3 million. The Company anticipates that FFO will substantially improve in the third quarter of 2011 when these properties experience their seasonally busy period. Additionally, we recorded a lower amount of equity in earnings from our unconsolidated entities as a result of approximately $6.1 million representing our share of the initial transaction costs incurred upon the formation of the Sunrise Venture in 2011. FFO on a period over period basis was also negatively impacted by an increase in interest expense of approximately $3.4 million as a result of the issuance of our unsecured senior notes.

Total MFFO and MFFO per share was approximately $17.0 million and $39.2 million or $0.06 and $0.13 for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively. Comparatively, MFFO and MFFO per share was approximately $26.7 million and $64.5 million or $0.10 and $0.25 for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. The change was primarily attributable to the replacement of cash rental receipts of approximately $17.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 with property net operating losses of approximately $7.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 as a result of the transition of 17 attraction properties and one additional lifestyle property from lease structures to managed structures during their off-season. This represents a period over period total change of approximately $25.5 million. The Company anticipates that MFFO will substantially improve in the third quarter when these properties experience their seasonally busy period. MFFO on a period over period basis was also negatively impacted by an increase in interest expense of approximately $3.4 million as a result of the issuance of the unsecured senior notes.
Adjusted EBITDA
We present Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of our performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss), less discontinued operations and other income, plus (i) interest expense, net, and loan cost amortization and (ii) depreciation and amortization, as further adjusted to eliminate the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance. These further adjustments are itemized in the table below. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons we consider them appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.
We present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it assists investors and analysts in comparing our performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance.
Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool. Some of these limitations are:
| • | | Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; |
| • | | Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; |
| • | | Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt; |
| • | | Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; |
| • | | Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the impact of certain cash charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations; and |
| • | | Other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. |
Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA only as a supplement.
