Financial and Operating Results
This press release presents 2011 data that combines the financial and operating results of the Company’s predecessor entities prior to the consummation of the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”) on May 16, 2011, and the results of the Company post-IPO. Pro forma RevPAR, Pro forma Hotel EBITDA, and Pro forma Hotel EBITDA Margin exclude non-comparable hotels that were not open for operation or closed for renovations for comparable periods. The prefix “pro forma,” as defined by the Company, denotes operating results which include results for periods prior to its ownership. An explanation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Hotel EBITDA, FFO, and Adjusted FFO, as well as reconciliations of those measures to net income or loss, if applicable, is included at the end of this release.
Pro forma rooms revenue per available room (“RevPAR”) for the three months ended March 31, 2012, increased 3.8% over the comparable period in 2011, driven by an average daily rate (“ADR”) increase of 4.9% and slightly offset by an occupancy decrease of 1.1%. Adjusting for disruption caused by the recent capital investments, the Company estimates that RevPAR growth would have increased by an additional 522 basis points to 9.0%.
Pro forma Hotel EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2012, increased $1.5 million to $53.0 million, representing a 3.0% increase over the comparable period in 2011.
Pro forma Hotel EBITDA Margin for the three months ended March 31, 2012, decreased 37 basis points over the comparable period in 2011 to 29.7%. Adjusting for disruption caused by the recent capital investments, the Company estimates that Pro forma Hotel EBITDA Margin would have increased by an additional 153 basis points to 31.2%.
Pro forma Consolidated Hotel EBITDA, which includes the results of non-comparable hotels, increased $4.2 million to $54.8 million, representing an 8.3% increase.
Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2012, increased $3.1 million to $49.1 million, representing a 6.6% increase over the comparable period in 2011.
Adjusted FFO for the three months ended March 31, 2012, increased $8.5 million to $28.5 million, representing a 42.8% increase over the comparable period in 2011. Adjusted FFO per diluted share and unit for the three months ended March 31, 2012, was $0.27.
Non-recurring expenses were not incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2012. For the comparable period in 2011, non-recurring expenses included $0.8 million related to the predecessor entities. These expenses are included in net income, EBITDA and FFO, but have been excluded from Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted FFO.
Net loss attributable to common shareholders for the three months ended March 31, 2012, was $6.5 million, compared to a net loss attributable to common shareholders of $16.1 million in the comparable period in 2011.
Net cash flow from operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2012, totaled $10.5 million compared to $15.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011.
Capital Expenditures
In 2012, the Company authorized approximately $95.0 million of renovation projects to upgrade and/or reposition 45 hotels. Once executed, the Company’s comprehensive two-year capital program will be substantially complete.
Included in the Company’s 2012 capital improvement plan is an extensive $25.0 million rooms renovation at the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Metropolitan New York City. The Company upgraded the hotel’s public space in the third quarter of 2011 and the rooms renovation, which began in January of 2012, will be completed in the second half of May 2012. Upon completion, hotel guests will experience fully upgraded guestrooms and an overall renovated hotel product.
Balance Sheet and Capital Structure
As of March 31, 2012, the Company had $261.1 million of unrestricted cash on its balance sheet and $1.3 billion of outstanding debt. The Company’s ratio of net debt to Adjusted EBITDA for the trailing twelve month period, including prior ownership Hotel EBITDA, was 4.5 times.
There was no outstanding balance on the Company’s $300.0 million unsecured credit facility as of March 31, 2012.
Dividends
The Company’s Board of Trustees declared a cash dividend of $0.165 per common share of beneficial interest, a 10% increase over the previous quarter. The dividend was paid on April 13, 2012, to shareholders of record as of March 30, 2012.
2012 Outlook
Based on the Company’s first quarter performance and current trends, the Company is updating its 2012 outlook. The Company’s outlook excludes potential future acquisitions and dispositions, which could result in a material change to the Company’s outlook. The Company’s 2012 outlook is also based on a number of other assumptions, many of which are outside the Company’s control and all of which are subject to change. Pro forma RevPAR growth and Pro forma Hotel EBITDA Margin exclude three non-comparable hotels. Pro forma Consolidated Hotel EBITDA includes all 141 hotels. For the full year 2012, the Company’s updated outlook is:
|
| Current Outlook |

Note:
The schedule above includes Pro forma RevPAR and Pro forma Hotel EBITDA operating statistics for 138 of the Company’s hotels as if they had been owned since January 1, 2011. Due to conversion upgrades at Fairfield Inn & Suites Washington, DC/Downtown and Courtyard by Marriott Charleston Historic District, these two hotels were excluded for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. The Garden District Hotel remains closed for renovations and therefore has been excluded from 2012 and 2011. Pro forma results reflect 100% of DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Metropolitan New York City financial results, results have not been adjusted to reflect the 5% noncontrolling interest in the joint venture.
The information above has not been audited and is presented only for comparison purposes.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company considers the following non-GAAP financial measures useful to investors as key supplemental measures of our performance: (1) FFO, (2) Adjusted FFO, (3) EBITDA, (4) Adjusted EBITDA, and (5) Hotel EBITDA. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered along with, but not as alternatives to, net income or loss as a measure of our operating performance. FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Hotel EBITDA as calculated by us, may not be comparable to other companies that do not define such terms exactly as the Company.
Funds From Operations (“FFO”)
The Company calculates FFO in accordance with standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), which defines FFO as net income or loss (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of real estate, items classified by GAAP as extraordinary, the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles, plus depreciation and amortization, and adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, most real estate industry investors consider FFO to be helpful in evaluating a real estate company’s operations.
The Company believes that the presentation of FFO provides useful information to investors regarding our operating performance by excluding the effect of depreciation and amortization, gains or losses from sales for real estate, extraordinary items and the portion of items related to unconsolidated entities, all of which are based on historical cost accounting, and that FFO can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between REITs, even though FFO does not represent an amount that accrues directly to common shareholders. The Company’s calculation of FFO may not be comparable to measures calculated by other companies who do not use the NAREIT definition of FFO or do not calculate FFO per diluted share in accordance with NAREIT guidance. Additionally, FFO may not be helpful when comparing us to non-REITs. The Company presents FFO attributable to common shareholders, which includes our OP units, because our OP units are redeemable for common shares of beneficial interest. The Company believes it is meaningful for the investor to understand FFO attributable to all common shares of beneficial interest and OP units.
Adjusted FFO
The Company further adjusts FFO for certain additional items that are not in NAREIT’s definition of FFO, such as hotel transaction and pursuit costs, the amortization of share based compensation and other nonrecurring expenses that were the result of the IPO and related formation transactions. The Company believes that Adjusted FFO provides investors with another financial measure that may facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between REITs.
Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”)
EBITDA is defined as net income or loss excluding: (1) interest expense; (2) provision for income taxes, including income taxes applicable to sale of assets; and (3) depreciation and amortization. The Company considers EBITDA useful to an investor in evaluating and facilitating comparisons of our operating performance between periods and between REITs by removing the impact of our capital structure (primarily interest expense) and asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) from our operating results. In addition, EBITDA is used as one measure in determining the value of hotel acquisitions and dispositions. The Company presents EBITDA attributable to common shareholders, which includes our OP units, because our OP units are redeemable for common shares of beneficial interest. The Company believes it is meaningful for the investor to understand EBITDA attributable to all common shares of beneficial interest and OP units.
Adjusted EBITDA
The Company further adjusts EBITDA for certain additional items such as hotel transaction and pursuit costs, the amortization of share based compensation, disposal of assets and other non-recurring expenses that were the result of the IPO and related formation transactions. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides investors with another financial measure that can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between REITs.
Hotel EBITDA
With respect to Hotel EBITDA, the Company believes that excluding the effect of corporate-level expenses, non-cash items, and the portion of these items related to unconsolidated entities, provides a more complete understanding of the operating results over which individual hotels and operators have direct control. The Company believes property-level results provide investors with supplemental information on the ongoing operational performance of our hotels and effectiveness of the third-party management companies operating our business on a property-level basis.
Pro forma Hotel EBITDA includes hotel results from prior ownership periods and excludes non-comparable hotels which were not open for operation or closed for renovations for comparable periods. Pro forma Consolidated Hotel EBITDA includes hotel results from prior ownership periods and includes non-comparable hotels which were not open for operation or closed for renovations for comparable periods.
