“We started 2014 with very strong momentum. We completed several key transactions in addition to once again reporting strong operational results,” commented Thomas J. Baltimore, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer. “We reinvested the proceeds from the sale of 13 non-strategic properties into 10 properties that increase our presence in high-growth markets. The results have been immediately accretive and provide us with a very solid foundation for future growth.”
Financial and Operating Results
Performance metrics such as Occupancy, Average Daily Rate (“ADR”), Revenue Per Available Room (“RevPAR”), Hotel EBITDA, and Hotel EBITDA Margin are pro forma. The prefix “pro forma” as defined by the Company, denotes operating results which include results for periods prior to its ownership. Pro forma RevPAR and Pro forma Hotel EBITDA Margin are reported on a comparable basis and therefore exclude hotels sold during the period and non-comparable hotels that were not open for operation or closed for renovations for comparable periods. Explanations of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Hotel EBITDA, FFO, and Adjusted FFO, as well as reconciliations of those measures to net income or loss, if applicable, are included at the end of this release.
Pro forma RevPAR for the three months ended March 31, 2014, increased 6.0% over the comparable period in 2013, driven by a Pro forma ADR increase of 3.3% and a Pro forma Occupancy increase of 2.7%. Adjusting for disruption caused by recent renovations, the Company estimates that RevPAR growth would have increased by an additional 90 basis points to 6.9%. Among the Company’s top six markets, the best performers in the quarter were Denver and Washington, D.C., which experienced RevPAR growth of 13.3% and 9.0%, respectively.

On February 20, 2014, the Company sold an 11-hotel portfolio consisting of 1,205 rooms for approximately $84.8 million. The sale price, adjusted for pending capital expenditures, represents a capitalization rate of approximately 7.9% on the portfolio's 2013 net operating income.
On February 25, 2014, the Company sold the 150-room Hilton Garden Inn St. George in St. George, Utah for approximately $15.7 million. The sale price, adjusted for pending capital expenditures, represents a capitalization rate of approximately 8.7% on the hotel's 2013 net operating income.
On March 26, 2014, the Company sold the 182-room Hilton Mystic in Mystic, Connecticut for approximately $14.1 million. The sale price, adjusted for pending capital expenditures, represents a capitalization rate of approximately 7.4% on the hotel's projected 2014 net operating income.
Balance Sheet
In March 2014, the Company amended its credit agreement to extend the maturity date of its 2012 Five-Year Term Loan from November 20, 2017 to March 20, 2019, expand the accordion feature, and reduce the applicable margin by 15 basis points. The Company also exercised the accordion feature of its 2012 Five-Year Term Loan and 2013 Five-Year Term Loan, resulting in proceeds of $175.0 million.
As of March 31, 2014, the Company had $270.8 million of unrestricted cash on its balance sheet, $300.0 million available on its revolving credit facility, and $1.6 billion of debt outstanding. The Company’s ratio of net debt to Adjusted EBITDA for the trailing twelve month period was 3.9 times.
Dividends
The Company’s Board of Trustees declared a cash dividend of $0.22 per common share of beneficial interest. The dividend was paid on April 15, 2014, to shareholders of record as of March 31, 2014, and represents an increase of approximately 7.3% over the prior quarter's regular dividend of $.205.
2014 Outlook
The Company’s outlook has been updated to reflect recent acquisition and disposition activity. The outlook excludes any potential future acquisition and disposition, which could result in a material change to the Company’s outlook. The 2014 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 operating statistics include results for periods prior to the Company’s ownership and therefore assume the hotels were owned since January 1, 2013. Pro forma Consolidated Hotel
3
EBITDA includes approximately $4.5 million of prior ownership Hotel EBITDA for 10 recently acquired hotels that is not included in the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA or Adjusted FFO. Pro forma guidance removes income from hotels that were sold. For the full year 2014, the Company anticipates:
Current Outlook | Prior Outlook | |
Pro forma RevPAR growth (1) | 4.5% to 6.5% | 4.0% to 6.0% |
Pro forma Hotel EBITDA Margin (1) | 34.5% to 35.5% | 34.5% to 35.5% |
Pro forma Consolidated Hotel EBITDA | $365.0M to $385.0M | $338.0M to $358.0M |
Corporate Cash General and Administrative expenses | $25.0M to $26.0M | $25.0M to $26.0M |
(1) Excludes non-comparable hotels. Properties closed for renovations are considered non-comparable and therefore are excluded for periods in which they were closed.

Non-GAAP and Accounting Commentary
Non-Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) Financial Measures
The Company considers the following non-GAAP financial measures useful to investors as key supplemental measures of its 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 its operating performance. FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Hotel EBITDA as calculated by the Company, 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, or NAREIT, which defines FFO as net income or loss (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of real estate, impairment, 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 the Company’s operating performance and can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between real estate investment trusts (“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 the Company to non-REITs. The Company presents FFO attributable to common shareholders, which includes unitholders of limited partnership interest (“OP units”) in RLJ Lodging Trust, L.P., the Company’s operating partnership, because the OP units are redeemable for common shares of the Company. The Company believes it is meaningful for the investor to understand FFO attributable to all common shares and OP units.
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 sales of assets; and (3) depreciation and amortization. The Company considers EBITDA useful to an investor in evaluating and facilitating comparisons of its operating performance between periods and between REITs by removing the impact of its capital structure (primarily interest expense) and asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) from its 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 OP units, because the OP units
6
are redeemable for common shares of the Company. The Company believes it is meaningful for the investor to understand EBITDA attributable to all common shares and OP units.
Hotel EBITDA
With respect to Hotel EBITDA, the Company believes that excluding the effect of corporate-level expenses and non-cash items 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 about the ongoing operational performance of the Company’s hotels and the effectiveness of third-party management companies operating the Company’s 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 the results of non-comparable hotels which were not open for operation or closed for renovations during the comparable periods.
Adjustments to FFO and EBITDA
The Company adjusts FFO and EBITDA for certain additional items, such as discontinued operations, transaction and pursuit costs, the amortization of share-based compensation, and certain other expenses that the Company considers outside the normal course of business. The Company believes that Adjusted FFO and Adjusted EBITDA provide useful supplemental information to investors regarding its ongoing operating performance that, when considered with net income, FFO and EBITDA, is beneficial to an investor’s understanding of its operating performance. The Company adjusts FFO and EBITDA for the following items, as applicable:
• | Transaction and Pursuit Costs: The Company excludes transaction and pursuit costs expensed during the period because it believes they do not reflect the underlying performance of the Company. |
• | Non-Cash Expenses: The Company excludes the effect of certain non-cash items because it believes they do not reflect the underlying performance of the Company. The Company has excluded the amortization of share based compensation, non-cash loss on the disposal of assets, and the accelerated amortization of deferred financing fees. |
• | Other Non-operational Expenses: The Company excludes the effect of certain non-operational expenses because it believes they do not reflect the underlying performance of the Company. The Company has excluded legal expenses it considered outside the normal course of business and the loss on defeasance of debt. |
New Accounting Treatment for Discontinued Operations: The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. Going forward, the Company will only classify dispositions in discontinued operations if they represent a strategic shift in operations (e.g., disposal of a major line of business). The 13 assets sold during the quarter are not considered as a strategic shift in operations.
