Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Organization and Description of Business	Organization and Description of Business Ashford Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”), a Nevada corporation, is an alternative asset management company with a portfolio of strategic operating businesses that provides products and services primarily to clients in the real estate and hospitality industries, including Ashford Hospitality Trust, Inc. (“Ashford Trust”) and Braemar Hotels & Resorts, Inc. (“Braemar”). We became a public company in November 2014, and our common stock is listed on the NYSE American LLC (“NYSE American”). We provide: (i) advisory services; (ii) asset management services; (iii) hotel management services; (iv) design and construction services; (v) event technology and creative communications solutions; (vi) mobile room keys and keyless entry solutions; (vii) watersports activities and other travel, concierge and transportation services; (viii) hypoallergenic premium room products and services; (ix) debt placement and related services; (x) real estate advisory and brokerage services; and (xi) wholesaler, dealer manager and other broker-dealer services. We conduct these activities and own substantially all of our assets primarily through Ashford Hospitality Advisors LLC (“Ashford LLC”), Ashford Hospitality Services LLC (“Ashford Services”) and their respective subsidiaries. We are currently the advisor for Ashford Trust and Braemar. In our capacity as the advisor to Ashford Trust and Braemar, we are responsible for implementing the investment strategies and managing the day-to-day operations of Ashford Trust and Braemar and their respective hotels from an ownership perspective, in each case subject to the respective advisory agreements and the supervision and oversight of the respective boards of directors of Ashford Trust and Braemar. Ashford Trust is focused on investing in full-service hotels in the upscale and upper upscale segments in the United States that have revenue per available room (“RevPAR”) generally less than twice the U.S. national average. Braemar invests primarily in luxury hotels and resorts with RevPAR of at least twice the U.S. national average. Each of Ashford Trust and Braemar is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”), and the common stock of each of Ashford Trust and Braemar is traded on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”). We provide the personnel and services that we believe are necessary for each of Ashford Trust and Braemar to conduct their respective businesses. We may also perform similar functions for new or additional platforms. In our capacity as an advisor, we are not responsible for managing the day-to-day operations of Ashford Trust or Braemar’s individual hotel properties, which duties are, and will continue to be, the responsibility of the hotel management companies that operate such hotel properties. Additionally, Remington Lodging & Hospitality, LLC (“Remington”), a subsidiary of the Company, operates certain hotel properties for Ashford Trust, Braemar and third-parties. Other Developments On January 3, 2023, the Company acquired Remington Hotel Corporation (“RHC”), an affiliate owned by Mr. Monty J. Bennett, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and the Chairman of Ashford Trust and Braemar, and his father, Mr. Archie Bennett, Jr., Chairman Emeritus of Ashford Trust, from which the Company leases the offices for our corporate headquarters in Dallas, Texas. The purchase price paid was de minimis. The transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition. See note 15. On February 1, 2023, the Company, Ashford Trust and Braemar (collectively, the “Parties” and each individually a “Party”) entered into a Third Amended and Restated Contribution Agreement with respect to the funding of certain operating expenses of Ashford Securities LLC, a subsidiary of the Company (“Ashford Securities”). The Third Amended and Restated Contribution Agreement states that after reaching the earlier of $400 million in aggregate non-listed preferred equity offerings or other debt or equity offerings through Ashford Securities or June 10, 2023 (the “Amended and Restated True-Up Date”) capital contributions to Ashford Securities for the remainder of fiscal year 2023 will be divided between each Party based on the actual amount of capital raised by such Party through Ashford Securities. Thereafter on a yearly basis at year-end, starting with the year-end of 2023, there will be a true-up between the Parties whereby there will be adjustments so that the capital contributions made by each Party will be based on the cumulative amount of capital raised by each Party through Ashford Securities as a percentage of the total amount raised by the Parties collectively through Ashford Securities since June 19, 2019 (the resulting ratio of capital contributions among the Company, Ashford Trust and Braemar following this true-up, the “Cumulative Ratio”). Thereafter, the capital contributions will be divided among each Party in accordance with the Cumulative Ratio, as recalculated at the end of each year. On March 17, 2023, RED Hospitality & Leisure LLC (“RED”) acquired certain privately held entities and assets associated with the Alii Nui and Maui Dive Shop (“Alii Nui”), which provides luxury sailing and watersports experiences in Maui, Hawaii, for a total purchase price of $11.0 million, excluding working capital adjustments. The purchase price consisted of $8.0 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments, $1.0 million of contingent consideration and 80,000 Preferred Units issued by RED (the “RED Units”) issued at $25 per unit for a total liquidation value of $2.0 million. See note 4. On March 24, 2023, Inspire Event Technologies Holdings, LLC (“INSPIRE”) amended its credit agreement dated as of November 1, 2017 (the “INSPIRE Amendment”). The INSPIRE Amendment increased the maximum borrowing capacity under INSPIRE’s revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Note”) from $3.0 million to $6.0 million, provides for a $20.0 million senior secured term loan (“Term Note”) and an equipment note (“Equipment Note” and together with the Revolving Note and the Term Note, the “Notes”) pursuant to which, until September 24, 2027, INSPIRE may request advances up to $4.0 million in the aggregate to purchase new machinery or equipment to be used in the ordinary course of business. The INSPIRE Amendment extended the maturity date of INSPIRE’s Notes from January 1, 2024 to March 24, 2028. See note 6. On May 15, 2023, the Company and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., a federally chartered trust company (the “Rights Agent”) entered into Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) to the Rights Agreement dated as of August 30, 2022 (the “Rights Agreement”). Our board of directors implemented the rights plan by declaring (i) a dividend to the holders of the Company’s common stock of one preferred share purchase right (a “Right”) for each share of common stock and (ii) a dividend to the holders of the Company’s Series D Convertible Preferred Stock of one Right in respect of each share of the Company’s common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock. The dividends were distributed on September 9, 2022, to our stockholders of record on that date. Each of those Rights become exercisable on the date on which the Rights separate and begin trading separately from our common stock and entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a share of our Series F Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Series F Preferred Stock”), at a price of $275 per one one-thousandth of a share of our Series F Preferred Stock represented by such Right, subject to adjustment. Pursuant to Amendment No. 1, the Rights Agreement was amended to (i) extend the final expiration date with respect to the Company’s Rights until July 30, 2024, and (ii) decrease the beneficial ownership threshold in the definition of an acquiring person from 10% to 7%. The value of the Rights was de minimus.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Significant Accounting Policies	Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation —The accompanying historical unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ashford Inc., its majority-owned subsidiaries and entities that it controls. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions between these entities have been eliminated in these historical condensed consolidated financial statements. We have condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. We believe the disclosures made herein are adequate to prevent the information presented from being misleading. However, the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 17, 2023. A variable interest entity (“VIE”) must be consolidated by a reporting entity if the reporting entity is the primary beneficiary because it has (i) the power to direct the VIE’s activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance, and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE. We determine whether we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE upon our initial involvement with the VIE and we reassess whether we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE on an ongoing basis. Our determination of whether we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE is based upon the facts and circumstances for each VIE and requires significant judgment. Noncontrolling Interests —The following tables present information about noncontrolling interests in our consolidated subsidiaries, including those related to consolidated VIEs, as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 (in thousands): June 30, 2023 Ashford OpenKey (3) Pure (4) Ashford Inc. ownership interest 99.49 % 76.78 % 70.00 % Redeemable noncontrolling interests (1) (2) 0.51 % — % — % Noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities — % 23.22 % 30.00 % 100.00 % 100.00 % 100.00 % Carrying value of redeemable noncontrolling interests $ 1,726 n/a n/a Redemption value adjustment, year-to-date 4 n/a n/a Redemption value adjustment, cumulative 617 n/a n/a Carrying value of noncontrolling interests n/a (188) (148) Assets, available only to settle subsidiary’s obligations (5) n/a 1,576 901 Liabilities (6) n/a 702 1,530 Notes payable (6) n/a 158 — Revolving credit facility (6) n/a — 150 December 31, 2022 Ashford OpenKey (3) Pure (4) Ashford Inc. ownership interest 99.87 % 76.79 % 70.00 % Redeemable noncontrolling interests (1) (2) 0.13 % — % — % Noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities — % 23.21 % 30.00 % 100.00 % 100.00 % 100.00 % Carrying value of redeemable noncontrolling interests $ 1,614 n/a n/a Redemption value adjustment, year-to-date 32 n/a n/a Redemption value adjustment, cumulative 613 n/a n/a Carrying value of noncontrolling interests n/a 273 (106) Assets, available only to settle subsidiary’s obligations (5) n/a 2,114 1,580 Liabilities (6) n/a 1,078 2,048 Revolving credit facility (6) n/a — 150 ________ (1) Redeemable noncontrolling interests are included in the “mezzanine” section of our condensed consolidated balance sheets as they may be redeemed by the holder for cash or registered shares in certain circumstances outside of the Company’s control. The carrying value of the noncontrolling interests is based on the greater of the accumulated historical cost or the redemption value, which is generally fair value. (2) Redeemable noncontrolling interests in Ashford Hospitality Holdings LLC (“Ashford Holdings”) represent the members’ proportionate share of equity in earnings/losses of Ashford Holdings. Net income/loss attributable to the common unit holders is allocated based on the weighted average ownership percentage of the members’ interest. (3) Represents ownership interests in OpenKey, Inc. (“OpenKey”), a VIE for which we are considered the primary beneficiary and therefore we consolidate it. OpenKey is a hospitality-focused mobile key platform that provides a universal smartphone app for keyless entry into hotel guest rooms. (4) Represents ownership interests in PRE Opco, LLC (“Pure Wellness”), a VIE for which we are considered the primary beneficiary and therefore we consolidate it. Pure Wellness provides hypoallergenic premium rooms in the hospitality and commercial office industry. See note 11. (5) Total assets consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, property and equipment and other assets that can only be used to settle the subsidiaries’ obligations. (6) Liabilities consist primarily of accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable for which creditors do not have recourse to Ashford Inc. See note 6. Investments in Unconsolidated Entities —We hold “investments in unconsolidated entities” in our condensed consolidated balance sheets, which are considered to be variable interests and voting interests in the underlying entities. Certain of our investments in variable interests are not consolidated because we have determined that we are not the primary beneficiary. Certain other investments are not consolidated as the underlying entity does not meet the definition of a VIE and we do not control more than 50% of the voting interests. We review our “investments in unconsolidated entities” for impairment in each reporting period pursuant to the applicable authoritative accounting guidance. An investment is impaired when its estimated fair value is less than the carrying amount of our investment. No such impairment was recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. We held an investment in an unconsolidated variable interest entity with a carrying value of $500,000 at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. We account for the investment at estimated fair value based on recent observable transactions as we do not exercise significant influence over the entity. No equity in earnings (loss) of unconsolidated entities due to a change in fair value of the investment was recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. In the event that the assumptions used to estimate fair value change in the future, we may be required to record an impairment charge related to this investment. Our investment in Real Estate Advisory Holdings LLC (“REA Holdings”) is accounted for under the equity method as we have significant influence over the voting interest entity. We have an option to acquire an additional 50% of the ownership interests in REA Holdings for $12.5 million beginning on January 1, 2022, which expires on the later of (i) February 28, 2024 and (ii) 30 business days following the completion date of the Company’s audit for calendar year 2023. The following table summarizes our carrying value and ownership interest in REA Holdings (in thousands): June 30, 2023 December 31, 2022 Carrying value of the investment in REA Holdings $ 2,219 $ 3,067 Ownership interest in REA Holdings 30 % 30 % The following table summarizes our equity in earnings (loss) in REA Holdings (in thousands): Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Equity in earnings (loss) in unconsolidated entities REA Holdings $ (388) $ 67 $ (847) $ 257 Acquisitions —We account for acquisitions and investments in businesses as business combinations if the target meets the definition of a business and (a) the target is a VIE and we are the target’s primary beneficiary, and therefore we must consolidate its financial statements, or (b) we acquire more than 50% of the voting interest of the target and it was not previously consolidated. We record business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires all of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. The application of the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions in the determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in order to properly allocate purchase price consideration between assets that are depreciated and amortized from goodwill. The fair value assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on management’s estimates and assumptions, as well as other information compiled by management, including valuations that utilize customary valuation procedures and techniques. Significant assumptions and estimates include, but are not limited to, the cash flows that an asset is expected to generate in the future and the appropriate weighted-average cost of capital. If the actual results differ from the estimates and judgments used in these estimates, the amounts recorded in our condensed consolidated financial statements may be exposed to potential impairment of the intangible assets and goodwill. If our investment involves the acquisition of an asset or group of assets that does not meet the definition of a business, the transaction is accounted for as an asset acquisition. An asset acquisition is recorded at cost, which includes capitalizing transaction costs, and does not result in the recognition of goodwill. Use of Estimates —The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Cash and Cash Equivalents —Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand or held in banks and short-term investments with an initial maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase. Restricted Cash —Restricted cash was comprised of the following (in thousands): June 30, 2023 December 31, 2022 REIT Advisory: Insurance claim reserves (1) $ 30,007 $ 23,471 Remington: Managed hotel properties’ reserves (2) 3,400 11,464 Insurance claim reserves (3) 2,701 2,123 Total Remington restricted cash 6,101 13,587 Total restricted cash $ 36,108 $ 37,058 ________ (1) Ashford Inc.’s Risk Management department collects funds from the Ashford Trust and Braemar properties and their respective management companies in an amount equal to the actuarial forecast of that year’s expected casualty claims and associated fees. These funds are deposited into restricted cash and used to pay casualty claims throughout the year as they are incurred. The claim liability related to the restricted cash balance is included in “claims liabilities and other” in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. (2) Cash received from hotel properties managed by Remington is used to pay certain centralized operating expenses as well as hotel employee bonuses. The liability related to the restricted cash balance for centralized billing is primarily included as a payable which is presented net within “due to/from Ashford Trust” and “due from Braemar” in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The liability related to the restricted cash balance for hotel employee bonuses is included in “accounts payable and accrued expenses” in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. (3) Cash reserves for health insurance claims are collected primarily from Remington’s managed properties as well as certain of Ashford Inc.’s other subsidiaries to cover employee health insurance claims. The liability related to this restricted cash balance is included in “claims liabilities and other” in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Accounts Receivable —Accounts receivable consists primarily of receivables from customers of audio visual services and third-party owned properties managed by Remington. We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of customers to make required payments for services. The allowance is maintained at a level adequate to absorb estimated receivable losses. The estimate is based on past receivable loss experience, known and inherent credit risks, current economic conditions and other relevant factors, including specific reserves for certain accounts. Notes Receivable —Notes receivable were comprised of the following (in thousands): June 30, 2023 December 31, 2022 Remington note receivable (1) $ 525 $ 1,506 Ashford LLC note receivable (2) 1,042 535 REA Holdings affiliate (3) 815 — Total notes receivable $ 2,382 $ 2,041 ________ (1) Remington holds a note receivable from a third-party which matures on January 31, 2024. The interest rate on the note receivable is 10% per annum with payments of interest payable quarterly commencing March 31, 2023. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the outstanding principal balance is included in “prepaid expenses and other” and “other assets, net,” respectively, in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. (2) Ashford LLC holds a note receivable from a third-party. The note bears interest at 8.00% per annum, compounding annually. Interest is paid in-kind and added to the outstanding principal balance until the note maturity date of November 11, 2026. The note receivable is recorded in “other assets, net” in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. (3) On April 3, 2023, the Company entered into a note receivable with an affiliate of REA Holdings. Principal plus any accrued interest is due to the Company on demand or, in the absence of any demand, 24 months. Interest is paid in-kind and added to the outstanding principal balance until the note maturity date. The interest rate on the note receivable is 7.5% per annum. The note receivable is recorded in “prepaid expenses and other” in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. Property and Equipment, net —Property and equipment, including assets acquired under finance leases, is depreciated using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives or lease terms if shorter. We record property and equipment at cost. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, property and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation, included enhanced return funding program (“ERFP”) assets of $3.5 million and $5.9 million, audio visual equipment at INSPIRE of $12.5 million and $8.8 million and marine vessels at RED of $22.3 million and $14.2 million, respectively. Claims Liabilities and Other —As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, claims liabilities and other included reserves in the amount of $29.8 million and $23.5 million, respectively, related primarily to Ashford Trust and Braemar properties’ insurance claims and related fees. The liability for casualty insurance claims and related fees is established based upon an analysis of historical data and actuarial estimates. We record the related funds received from Ashford Trust and Braemar in “restricted cash” in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, claims liabilities and other also included $2.0 million and $2.2 million, respectively, relating to reserves for Remington health insurance claims and, as of June 30, 2023, a contingent consideration liability of $500,000 from the Company’s acquisition of Alii Nui. See notes 4 and 8. Other Liabilities —As of June 30, 2023, other liabilities included the contingent consideration liability from the Company’s acquisition of Chesapeake Hospitality (“Chesapeake”) of $2.6 million, $500,000 of contingent consideration and $300,000 of cash held in escrow payable to the sellers of Alii Nui, subject to certain conditions, related to the Company’s acquisition of Alii Nui (see notes 4 and 8), and an uncertain tax position of $953,000. As of December 31, 2022, other liabilities included a liability for contingent consideration from the Company’s acquisition of Chesapeake of $2.3 million and an uncertain tax position liability of $917,000. Revenue Recognition —See note 3. Income Taxes —We are a taxable corporation for federal and state income tax purposes. Income tax expense includes U.S. federal and state income taxes, Mexico and Dominican Republic income taxes and U.S. Virgin Islands taxes. In accordance with authoritative accounting guidance, we account for income taxes using the asset and liability method under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between our consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective income tax bases. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that will more likely than not be realized. The “Income Taxes” topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification addresses the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements. The guidance requires us to determine whether tax positions we have taken or expect to take in a tax return are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authority based on the technical merits of the positions. Tax positions that do not meet the more likely than not threshold would be recorded as additional tax expense in the current period. We analyze all open tax years, as defined by the statute of limitations for each jurisdiction, which includes the federal jurisdiction and various states. We classify interest and penalties related to underpayment of income taxes as income tax expense. We and our portfolio companies file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various states and cities, beginning in 2017, in Mexico and the Dominican Republic and, beginning in 2018, in the U.S. Virgin Islands. Tax years 2018 through 2022 remain subject to potential examination by certain federal and state taxing authorities. Recently Adopted Accounting Standards —In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 sets forth an “expected credit loss” impairment model to replace the current “incurred loss” method of recognizing credit losses. The standard requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for most financial assets held. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2019-10”). ASU 2019-10 revised the mandatory adoption date for public business entities that meet the definition of a smaller reporting company to be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. We adopted ASU 2016-13 and ASU 2019-10 effective January 1, 2023 and the adoption did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848 ) (“ASU 2020-04”), which provides optional guidance through December 31, 2022 to ease the potential burden in accounting for, or recognizing the effects of, reference rate reform on financial reporting. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01 , Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), which further clarified the scope of the reference rate reform optional practical expedients and exceptions outlined in Topic 848. The amendments in ASU Nos. 2020-04 and 2021-01 apply to contract modifications that replace a reference rate affected by reference rate reform, providing optional expedients regarding the measurement of hedge effectiveness in hedging relationships that have been modified to replace a reference rate. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) (“ASU 2022-06”), which deferred the sunset date of Topic 848 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. The Company applied the optional expedient in evaluating debt modifications converting from London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) to Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). The Company adopted the standards upon the respective effective dates. There was no material impact as a result of this adoption. Recently Issued Accounting Standards —In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. This ASU (1) simplifies the accounting for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock by removing the existing guidance in ASC 470-20, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options , that requires entities to account for beneficial conversion features and cash conversion features in equity, separately from the host convertible debt or preferred stock; (2) revises the scope exception from derivative accounting in ASC 815-40 for freestanding financial instruments and embedded features that are both indexed to the issuer’s own stock and classified in stockholders’ equity, by removing certain criteria required for equity classification; and (3) revises the guidance in ASC 260, Earnings Per Share

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]
Revenues	Revenues Revenue Recognition —Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. We determine revenue recognition through the following steps: • Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer • Identification of the performance obligations in the contract • Determination of the transaction price • Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract • Recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation In determining the transaction price, we include variable consideration only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized would not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. The following provides detailed information on the recognition of our revenues from contracts with customers: Advisory Services Fees Revenue Advisory services fees revenue is reported within our REIT Advisory segment and primarily consists of advisory fees that are recognized when services have been rendered. Advisory fees consist of base fees and incentive fees. For Ashford Trust, the base fee is paid monthly in an amount equal to 1/12 th of 0.70% of Ashford Trust’s total market capitalization plus the Net Asset Fee Adjustment, as defined in our Second Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement with Ashford Trust, as amended, subject to certain minimums. For Braemar, the base fee is paid monthly in an amount equal to 1/12 th of 0.70% of Braemar’s total market capitalization plus the Net Asset Fee Adjustment, as defined in our Fifth Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement with Braemar, as amended, subject to certain minimums. Incentive advisory fees are measured annually in each year that Ashford Trust’s and/or Braemar’s annual total stockholder return exceeds the average annual total stockholder return for each company’s respective peer group, subject to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Condition (the “FCCR Condition”), as defined in the respective advisory agreements. Incentive advisory fees are paid over a three-year period and each payment is subject to the FCCR Condition, which relates to the ratio of adjusted EBITDA to fixed charges for Ashford Trust or Braemar, as applicable. Incentive advisory fees are a form of variable consideration and therefore must be (i) deferred until such fees are probable of not being subject to significant reversal, and (ii) tied to a performance obligation in the contract with the customer so that revenue recognition depicts the transfer of the related advisory services to the customer. Accordingly, the Company does not record incentive advisory fee revenue in interim periods prior to the fourth quarter of the year in which the incentive fee is measured. The first year installment of incentive advisory fees will generally be recognized only upon measurement in the fourth quarter of the first year of the three-year period. The second- and third-year installments of incentive advisory fees are recognized as revenue on a pro-rata basis each quarter subject to meeting the FCCR Condition. Hotel Management Fees Revenue Hotel management fees revenue is reported within our Remington segment and primarily consists of base management fees, incentive management fees and other management fees. Base management fees, incentive management fees and other management fees are recognized when services have been rendered. For hotels owned by Ashford Trust and Braemar, Remington receives base management fees of 3% of gross hotel revenue for managing the hotel employees and daily operations of the hotels, pursuant to Remington’s hotel management agreements, subject to a specified floor (which is subject to increase annually based on increases in the consumer price index). Remington additionally receives an incentive management fee for hotels owned by Ashford Trust and Braemar whenever a hotel’s gross operating profit (“GOP”) exceeds the hotel’s budgeted GOP. The incentive fee is equal to the lesser of 1% of each hotel’s annual gross revenue or the amount by which the respective hotel’s GOP exceeds the hotel’s budgeted GOP. The base management fees and incentive management fees that Remington receives for third-party owned properties vary by property. Other management fees primarily includes fees for health insurance programs administered on behalf of certain third-party properties. Health insurance program fees are recognized monthly at rates which approximate market rates for similar plans provided by independent insurance companies. Other management fees additionally includes fees for fixed monthly accounting services, revenue management services and other services at certain third-party properties. Design and Construction Fees Revenue Design and construction fees revenue primarily consists of revenue generated by our subsidiary, Premier Project Management LLC (“Premier”). Premier provides design and construction management services, capital improvements, refurbishment, project management, and other services such as purchasing, interior design, architectural services and freight management at properties. Premier receives fees for these services and recognizes revenue over time as services are provided to the customer. Audio Visual Revenue Audio visual revenue primarily consists of revenue generated within our INSPIRE segment by providing event technology services such as audio visual services, audio visual equipment rental, staging and meeting services and event-related communication systems as well as related technical support, to our customers in various venues including hotels and convention centers. Revenue is recognized in the period in which services are provided pursuant to the terms of the contractual arrangements with our customers. We also evaluate whether it is appropriate to present: (i) the gross amount that our customers pay for our services as revenue, and the related commissions paid to the venue as cost of revenue; or (ii) the net amount (gross revenue less the related commissions paid to the venue) as revenue. We are responsible for the delivery of the services, including providing the necessary labor and equipment to perform the services. We are generally subject to inventory risk, have latitude in establishing prices and selecting suppliers and, while in many cases the venue bills the end customer on our behalf, we bear the risk of collection from the customer. The venues’ commissions are not dependent on collections. As a result, our revenue is primarily reported on a gross basis. Cost of revenues for audio visual principally includes commissions paid to venues, direct labor costs, the cost of equipment sub-rentals, depreciation of equipment, amortization of signing bonuses, as well as other costs such as supplies, freight, travel and other overhead from our venue and customer facing operations and any losses on equipment disposal. Other Revenue Other revenue includes revenue provided by certain of our products and service businesses, including RED. RED’s revenue is primarily generated through the provision of watersports activities and ferry and excursion services. The revenue is recognized as services are provided based on contractual customer rates. Debt placement and related fees include revenue earned from providing placement, modifications, forbearances or refinancing of certain mortgage debt by our subsidiary, Lismore Capital II LLC (“Lismore”). For certain agreements, the fees are recognized based on a stated percentage of the loan amount when services have been rendered and the subject loan, modification or other transaction is closed. For other agreements, deferred income related to the various Lismore fees will be recognized over the term of the agreement on a straight-line basis as the service is rendered, only to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue will not occur. Constraints relating to variable consideration are resolved generally upon the closing of a transaction or financing event and the resulting change in the transaction price will be adjusted on a cumulative catch-up basis in the period a transaction or financing event closes. Cost Reimbursement Revenue Cost reimbursement revenue is recognized in the period we incur the related reimbursable costs. Under our advisory agreements and our Amended and Restated Contribution Agreement with Ashford Trust and Braemar (as defined below), we are entitled to be reimbursed for certain costs we incur on behalf of Ashford Trust and Braemar, with no added mark-up. These costs primarily consist of expenses related to Ashford Securities (as defined below), overhead, internal audit, risk management advisory services and asset management services, including compensation, benefits and travel expense reimbursements. We record cost reimbursement revenue for equity grants of Ashford Trust and Braemar common stock and LTIP units awarded to our officers and employees in connection with providing advisory services equal to the fair value of the award in proportion to the requisite service period satisfied during the period. Under our project management agreements and hotel management agreements, we are entitled to be reimbursed for certain costs we incur on behalf of Ashford Trust, Braemar and other hotel owners with no added mark-up. Design and construction costs primarily consist of costs for accounting, overhead and project manager services. Hotel management costs primarily consist of the properties’ payroll, payroll taxes and benefits-related expenses at managed properties where we are the employer of the employees at the properties as provided for in our contracts with Ashford Trust, Braemar and other hotel owners. The recognition of cost reimbursement revenue and reimbursed expenses for centralized software programs reimbursed by Ashford Trust and Braemar may result in temporary timing differences in our operating and net income. Over the long term, these programs and services are not designed to impact our economics, either positively or negatively. Certain of our consolidated entities enter into contracts with customers that contain multiple performance obligations. For these contracts, we account for individual performance obligations separately if they are distinct. The transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations on a relative standalone selling price basis. We determine the standalone selling prices based on our consolidated entities’ overall pricing objectives taking into consideration market conditions and other factors, including the customer and the nature and value of the performance obligations within the applicable contracts. Practical Expedients and Exemptions We do not disclose the amount of variable consideration that we expect to recognize in future periods in the following circumstances: (1) if we recognize the revenue based on the amount invoiced or services performed; (2) if the consideration is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied promise to transfer a distinct service that forms part of a single performance obligation, and the terms of the consideration relate specifically to our efforts to transfer, or to a specific outcome from transferring the service. Deferred Income and Contract Balances Deferred income primarily consists of customer billings in advance of revenue being recognized from our advisory agreements and other products and services contracts. Generally, deferred income that will be recognized within the next 12 months is recorded as current deferred income and the remaining portion is recorded as noncurrent. The change in the deferred income balance is primarily driven by cash payments received or due in advance of satisfying our performance obligations, offset by revenue recognized that was included in the deferred income balance at the beginning of the period. The following tables summarize our consolidated deferred income activity (in thousands): Deferred Income 2023 2022 Balance as of March 31 $ 9,469 $ 10,377 Increases to deferred income 2,392 1,961 Recognition of revenue (1) (2,842) (3,658) Balance as of June 30 $ 9,019 $ 8,680 ________ (1) Deferred income recognized in the three months ended June 30, 2023, includes (a) $302,000 of advisory revenue primarily related to our advisory agreements and our Amended and Restated Contribution Agreement with Ashford Trust and Braemar, (b) $390,000 of audio visual revenue and (c) $2.1 million of “other services” revenue earned by our products and services companies. Deferred income recognized in the three months ended June 30, 2022, includes (a) $390,000 of advisory revenue primarily related to our advisory agreements and our Amended and Restated Contribution Agreement with Ashford Trust and Braemar, (b) $1.5 million of audio visual revenue and (c) $1.8 million of “other services” revenue earned by our products and services companies. Deferred Income 2023 2022 Balance as of January 1 $ 7,800 $ 10,905 Increases to deferred income 7,676 5,812 Recognition of revenue (1) (6,457) (8,037) Balance as of June 30 $ 9,019 $ 8,680 ________ (1) Deferred income recognized in the six months ended June 30, 2023 includes (a) $670,000 of advisory revenue primarily related to our advisory agreements and our Amended and Restated Contribution Agreement with Ashford Trust and Braemar, (b) $1.5 million of audio visual revenue, and (c) $4.3 million of “other services” revenue earned by our products and services companies. Revenue recognized in the six months ended June 30, 2023 includes $4.9 million which was recorded in deferred income in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022. Deferred income recognized in the six months ended June 30, 2022 includes (a) $833,000 of advisory revenue primarily related to our advisory agreements and our Amended and Restated Contribution Agreement with Ashford Trust and Braemar, (b) $1.7 million of audio visual revenue, (c) $2.3 million of other revenue related to Ashford Trust’s agreement with Lismore (see note 15), and (d) $3.2 million of “other services” revenue earned by our products and services companies, excluding Lismore. We do not disclose information about remaining performance obligations pertaining to contracts that have an original expected duration of one year or less. The transaction price allocated to remaining unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied performance obligations with an original expected duration exceeding one year was primarily related to (i) reimbursed software costs that will be recognized evenly over the period the software is used to provide advisory services to Ashford Trust and Braemar, (ii) a $5.0 million cash payment received in June 2017 from Braemar in connection with our Fourth Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement with Braemar, which is recognized evenly over the 10-year initial contract period that we are providing Braemar advisory services, and (iii) debt placement and related fees that will be recognized over the term of the agreement on a straight line basis as the service was rendered, only to the extent it was probable that a significant reversal of revenue would not occur. The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of payment by customers. We record a receivable when revenue is recognized prior to payment and we have an unconditional right to payment. Alternatively, when payment precedes the provision of the related services, we record deferred income until the performance obligations are satisfied. We had receivables related to revenues from contracts with customers of $22.9 million and $17.6 million included in “accounts receivable, net” primarily related to our products and services segment, $7.4 million and $0 in “due from Ashford Trust,” and $2.1 million and $11.8 million included in “due from Braemar” related to REIT advisory services at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]
Business Combination	Business Combination Alii Nui On March 17, 2023, RED acquired certain privately held entities and assets associated with Alii Nui, which provides luxury sailing and watersports experiences in Maui, Hawaii, for a total purchase price of $11.0 million, excluding working capital adjustments. The purchase price consisted of $8.0 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments, $1.0 million of contingent consideration and 80,000 RED Units issued at $25 per unit for a total liquidation value of $2.0 million. The RED Units accrue interest at 6.5% per annum with required quarterly payments. The $8.0 million cash consideration includes $300,000 of cash held back by the Company to be paid eighteen months after the acquisition date (the “Holdback Date”), subject to certain conditions. The $1.0 million of contingent consideration is subject to Alii Nui obtaining a permit to operate a marine vessel (the “Permit”) prior to the Holdback Date of which $500,000 is to be paid upon the later of January 15, 2024 or the date the Permit is obtained and the remaining $500,000 is to be paid on the Holdback Date, subject to certain conditions. Subsequent to the acquisition date, Alii Nui obtained approval to be issued the Permit upon registration of the marine vessel. Both the Company and the holders of the RED Units have the right to convert the RED Units at the liquidation value of $25 per unit three years after the acquisition date upon providing notice to the respective party. The Company may convert the RED Units by paying cash or a combination of cash or the Company’s common shares at the sole discretion of the Company (the “Call Right”). The holders of the RED Units may convert their RED Units for cash (the “Put Right”). Under current accounting guidance, the Call Right and the Put Right are accounted for on a combined basis as a form of financing the acquisition of Alii Nui and recorded as a non-current note payable of $2.0 million in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. The acquisition of Alii Nui was recorded using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with the authoritative guidance for business combinations, and the purchase price allocation was based on our valuation of the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition. The fair values of the assets acquired were determined using various valuation techniques, including an income approach. The fair value measurements were primarily based on significant inputs that are not directly observable in the market and are considered Level 3 under the fair value measurements and disclosure framework. Key assumptions include cash flow projections for Alii Nui and the discount rate applied to those cash flows. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the identifiable net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. For goodwill reporting purposes, the operations and goodwill for Alii Nui are included in our RED reporting unit as they are similar businesses. See note 5. We have allocated the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed on a preliminary basis using estimated fair value information currently available. We are in the process of evaluating the values assigned to the RED Units, the contingent consideration and the intangible assets; the tax basis of which is impacted by the final assignment of holdback values as further allocated to the acquired assets versus the acquired business corporate entity. Thus, the balances reflected below are subject to change, and any such changes could result in adjustments to the allocation. The fair value of the purchase price and preliminary allocation of the purchase price are as follows (in thousands): Cash $ 7,700 Cash consideration payable 300 Contingent consideration 1,000 RED Units 2,000 Working capital adjustments 304 Total fair value of purchase price $ 11,304 Fair Value Estimated Useful Life Current assets including cash of $996 $ 1,286 Property and equipment, net 2,254 20 years Goodwill 771 Trademarks 1,600 Boat slip rights 6,250 20 years Total assets acquired 12,161 Current liabilities 857 Total assumed liabilities 857 Net assets acquired $ 11,304 We do not expect any of the goodwill balance to be deductible for tax purposes. The qualitative factors that make up the recorded goodwill includes value attributable to growth opportunities to expand RED’s operations to new markets in Hawaii. Results of Alii Nui The results of operations of Alii Nui have been included in our results of operations since the acquisition date of March 17, 2023. Our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 include total revenue from Alii Nui of $2.0 million and $2.4 million, respectively. In addition, our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 include net income from Alii Nui of $12,000 and $92,000, respectively. Pro Forma Financial Results The following table reflects the unaudited pro forma results of operations as if the Alii Nui acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2022, and the removal of $57,000 and $375,000, respectively, of transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition (net of the incremental tax expense) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 (in thousands): Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Total revenues $ 192,710 $ 169,410 $ 379,672 $ 305,585 Net income (loss) 1,543 5,627 3,155 6,939 Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders (7,420) (3,236) (14,709) (11,028)

INSPIRE’s term loan is collateralized by substantially all of the assets of INSPIRE. (8) RED’s loans are collateralized primarily by RED’s marine vessels and associated leases with a carrying value of $14.8 million and $13.6 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. (9) On March 31, 2023, the Company amended its Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), previously entered into on April 1, 2022, with Mustang Lodging Funding LLC, as administrative agent, and the lenders from time to time party thereto. The amendment replaced the one-month LIBOR rate with Adjusted Term SOFR. The Credit Agreement evidences a senior secured term loan facility (the “Credit Facility”) in the amount of $100.0 million, including a $50.0 million term loan funded on the closing date of the Credit Facility (the “Closing Date”) and commitments to fund up to an additional $50.0 million of term loans in up to five separate borrowings within 24 months after the Closing Date, subject to certain conditions. On April 18, 2022 and March 7, 2023, the Company drew an additional $20.0 million and $12.0 million on the Credit Facility, respectively. The Credit Facility is a five-year interest-only facility with all outstanding principal due at maturity, with three successive one-year extension options subject to an increase in the interest rate during each extension period. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement will bear interest, at the Company’s option, at either Adjusted Term SOFR plus an applicable margin, or the Base Rate plus an applicable margin.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	Fair Value Measurements Fair Value Hierarchy —Our assets and liabilities measured at fair value, either on a recurring or a non-recurring basis, are classified in a hierarchy for disclosure purposes consisting of three levels based on the observability of inputs in the market - place as discussed below: • Level 1: Fair value measurements that are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that we have the ability to access for identical assets or liabilities. Market price data generally is obtained from exchange or dealer markets. • Level 2: Fair value measurements based on inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. • Level 3: Fair value measurements based on valuation techniques that use significant inputs that are unobservable. The circumstances for using these measurements include those in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis The following tables present our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis aggregated by the level within which measurements fall in the fair value hierarchy (in thousands): Quoted Market Prices (Level 1) Significant Other Significant Unobservable Inputs Total June 30, 2023 Assets Restricted Investment: Ashford Trust common stock $ 38 (1) $ — $ — $ 38 Braemar common stock 186 (1) — — 186 Total $ 224 $ — $ — $ 224 Liabilities Contingent consideration $ (1,000) (2) $ — $ (2,620) (3) $ (3,620) Subsidiary compensation plan — (15) (1) — (15) Deferred compensation plan (2,060) — — (2,060) Total $ (3,060) $ (15) $ (2,620) $ (5,695) Net $ (2,836) $ (15) $ (2,620) $ (5,471) __________________ (1) The restricted investment includes shares of common stock of Ashford Trust and Braemar purchased by Remington on the open market and held for the purpose of providing compensation to certain employees. The compensation agreement liability is based on ratably accrued vested shares through June 30, 2023, which are distributed to the plan participants upon vesting. The liability is the total accrued vested shares multiplied by the fair value of the quoted market price of the underlying investment. (2) Represents the fair value of the contingent consideration liability related to Alii Nui obtaining the Permit, $500,000 of which is reported within each of “claims liabilities and other” and “other liabilities” in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The fair value of the contingent consideration liability is based on the present value of the expected future payments to be made to the sellers of Chesapeake in accordance with the provisions outlined in the respective purchase agreements, which is a Level 3 fair value measurement. In determining fair value, the Company estimates Chesapeake’s future performance using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The key assumptions in applying the Monte Carlo simulation model are a) a discount rate, with a range of 35.58% to 36.41%; b) a forward - looking risk-free rate, with a range of 5.09% to 5.38%; and c) a volatility rate of 55.37%.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	Commitments and Contingencies Release and Waiver Agreement — On April 15, 2022, the Company and Ashford Services agreed with Jeremy Welter, the Chief Operating Officer of the Company, that, effective on July 15, 2022, Mr. Welter would terminate employment with and service to the Company, Ashford Services and their affiliates. Mr. Welter was also the Chief Operating Officer of Ashford Trust and Braemar and accordingly his service as Chief Operating Officer of each of Ashford Trust and Braemar also ended on July 15, 2022. The Company has commitments related to cash compensation for the departure of Mr. Welter which included a cash termination payment of $750,000, which was paid on August 5, 2022, and payments totaling approximately $6.4 million, which are payable in 24 substantially equal monthly installments of approximately $267,000 beginning in August 2022. As of June 30, 2023, the Company’s remaining commitment to Mr. Welter totaled approximately $3.5 million. Litigation —On December 20, 2016, a class action lawsuit was filed against one of the Company’s subsidiaries in the Superior Court of the State of California in and for the County of Contra Costa alleging violations of certain California employment laws. The court has entered an order granting class certification with respect to: (i) a statewide class of non-exempt employees who were allegedly deprived of rest breaks as a result of the subsidiary’s previous written policy requiring employees to stay on premises during rest breaks; and (ii) a derivative class of non-exempt former employees who were not paid for allegedly missed breaks upon separation from employment. Notices to potential class members were sent out on February 2, 2021. Potential class members had until April 4, 2021 to opt out of the class, however, the total number of employees in the class has not been definitively determined and is the subject of continuing discovery. The opt out period has been extended until such time that discovery has concluded. In May of 2023, the trial court requested additional briefing from the parties to determine whether the case should be maintained, dismissed, or the class decertified. The trial court set a due date of August 7, 2023 for the briefs. If this litigation goes to trial, we expect that the earliest the trial would occur is the last quarter of 2023, based on various extensions to which the parties have agreed. While we believe it is reasonably possible that we may incur a loss associated with this litigation, because there remains uncertainty under California law with respect to a significant legal issue, discovery relating to class members continues, and the trial judge retains discretion to award lower penalties than set forth in the applicable California employment laws, we do not believe that any potential loss to the Company is reasonably estimable at this time. As of June 30, 2023, no amounts have been accrued.

Mezzanine Equity	Mezzanine Equity Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests — Redeemable noncontrolling interests are included in the mezzanine section of our condensed consolidated balance sheets as the ownership interests are redeemable for cash or registered shares outside of the Company’s control. Redeemable noncontrolling interests in Ashford Holdings includes the Series CHP Unit preferred membership interest issued in our acquisition of Chesapeake in April of 2022 and the membership interests of common units and LTIP units. The following table summarizes the net (income) loss attributable to our redeemable noncontrolling interests (in thousands): Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Net (income) loss attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests: Ashford Holdings $ (133) $ (141) $ (288) $ (132) Series CHP Units —In connection with the acquisition of Chesapeake, Ashford Holdings issued 378,000 Series CHP Units to the sellers of Chesapeake. The Series CHP Units represent a preferred membership interest in Ashford Holdings having a priority in payment of cash dividends over the common unit holders of Ashford Holdings. Each Series CHP Unit (i) has a liquidation value of $25 plus all unpaid accrued and accumulated distributions thereon; (ii) is entitled to cumulative dividends at the rate of 7.28% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears; (iii) participates in any dividend or distribution paid on all outstanding common units of Ashford Holdings in addition to the preferred dividends; (iv) is convertible, along with the aggregate accrued or accumulated and unpaid distributions thereon, into common units of Ashford Holdings at the option of the holder or the issuer, which common units of Ashford Holdings will then be redeemable by the holder thereof into common stock of the Company on a 1:1 ratio or cash, at the Company’s discretion; and (v) provides for customary anti-dilution protections. The number of common units of Ashford Holdings to be received upon conversion of Series of CHP Units, along with the aggregate accrued or accumulated and unpaid distributions thereon, is determined by: (i) multiplying the number of Series CHP Units to be converted by the liquidation value thereof; and then (ii) dividing the result by the preferred conversion price, which is $117.50 per unit. In the event the Company fails to pay the required dividends on the Series CHP Units for two consecutive quarterly periods (a “Preferred Unit Breach”), then until such arrearage is paid in cash in full, the dividend rate on the Series CHP Units will increase to 10.00% per annum until no Preferred Unit Breach exists. Except with respect to certain protective provisions, no holder of Series CHP Units will have voting rights in its capacity as such. As long as any Series CHP Units are outstanding, the Company is prohibited from taking specified actions without the consent of at least 50% of the holders of Series CHP Units, including (i) modifying the terms, rights, preferences, privileges or voting powers of the Series CHP Units or (ii) altering the rights, preferences or privileges of any Units of Ashford Holdings so as to adversely affect the Series CHP Units.

Convertible Preferred Stock —Each share of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock: (i) has a liquidation value of $25 per share plus the amount of all unpaid accrued and accumulated dividends on such share; (ii) accrues cumulative dividends at the rate of 7.28% per annum; (iii) participates in any dividend or distribution on the common stock in addition to the preferred dividends; (iv) is convertible, along with all unpaid accrued and accumulated dividends thereon, into voting common stock at $117.50 per share; and (v) provides for customary anti-dilution protections. In the event the Company fails to pay the dividends on the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock for two consecutive quarterly periods (a “Preferred Stock Breach”), then until such arrearage is paid in cash in full: (A) the dividend rate on the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock will increase to 10.00% per annum until no Preferred Stock Breach exists; (B) no dividends on the Company’s common stock may be declared or paid, and no other distributions or redemptions may be made, on the Company’s common stock; and (C) the Board will be increased by two seats and the holders of 55% of the outstanding Series D Convertible Preferred Stock will be entitled to fill such newly created seats. The Series D Convertible Preferred Stock is beneficially held primarily by Mr. Monty J. Bennett, the Chairman of our Board and our Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Archie Bennett, Jr., who is Mr. Monty J. Bennett’s father.

Compensation Related Costs [Abstract]
Deferred Compensation Plan	Deferred Compensation Plan We administer a non-qualified deferred compensation plan (“DCP”) for certain executive officers and other employees which give the participants various investment options, including Ashford Inc. common stock, for measurement that can be changed by the participant at any time. These modifications resulted in the DCP obligation being recorded as a liability in accordance with the applicable authoritative accounting guidance. Distributions under the DCP for our executive officers are made in cash, unless the participant has elected Ashford Inc. common stock as the investment option, in which case any such distributions would be made in Ashford Inc. common stock. Additionally, the DCP obligation is carried at fair value with changes in fair value reflected in “salaries and benefits” in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The following table summarizes the DCP activity (in thousands): Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Change in fair value Unrealized gain (loss) $ 570 $ 600 $ 790 $ 489 As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the carrying value of the DCP liability was $2.1 million and $2.8 million, respectively. No distributions were made to any participant during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

Premier is party to a master project management agreement with Ashford Trust OP and Ashford Trust TRS, a subsidiary of Ashford Trust OP, and certain of their affiliates to provide comprehensive and cost-effective design, development, architectural, and project management services and a related mutual exclusivity agreement with Ashford Trust and Ashford Trust OP. Remington is party to a master hotel management agreement with Ashford Trust TRS and certain of its affiliates to provide hotel management services.

Ashford Trust pays the base fee and reimburses all expenses for Remington-managed hotels on a weekly basis for the preceding week. Remington is also party to a mutual exclusivity agreement with Ashford Trust and Ashford Trust OP. Lismore has certain agreements with Ashford Trust to provide debt placement, modifications and refinancings of certain mortgage debt.

Lismore also previously held an agreement with Ashford Trust (the “Ashford Trust Agreement”) with an effective date of April 6, 2020 pursuant to which Lismore negotiated forbearance, modifications and refinancings of the existing mortgage debt on Ashford Trust’s hotels. The Ashford Trust Agreement additionally allowed for the Company to receive certain fees for refinancings performed within eight months after the Ashford Trust Agreement terminated.

(12) The Corporate and Other segment’s revenue includes cost reimbursement revenue from Braemar’s capital contributions to Ashford Securities under the Third Amended and Restated Contribution Agreement between the Company, Ashford Trust and Braemar. Capital contributions are divided between the Company, Ashford Trust and Braemar based upon the actual amount of capital raised through Ashford Securities for each company which may result in increases or decreases to cost reimbursement revenue in any given reporting period. See discussion regarding Ashford Securities below. Ashford Securities — On December 31, 2020, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Contribution Agreement with the Parties with respect to funding certain expenses of Ashford Securities. Beginning on the effective date of the Amended and Restated Contribution Agreement, costs to fund the operations of Ashford Securities were allocated 50% to the Company, 50% to Braemar and 0% to Ashford Trust. Upon reaching the Amended and Restated True-Up Date, there will be a true up among the Parties whereby the actual amount contributed by each Party will be based on the actual amount of capital raised by such Party through Ashford Securities (the resulting ratio of contributions among the Parties, the “Initial True-Up Ratio”). On January 27, 2022, the Parties entered into a Second Amended and Restated Contribution Agreement which provided for an additional $18 million in aggregate contributions to Ashford Securities allocated 10% to the Company, 45% to Ashford Trust and 45% to Braemar. On February 3, 2023, the Amended and Restated True-Up Date occurred and, on March 30, 2023, Braemar paid the Company $8.7 million for Braemar’s portion of their contributions to fund Ashford Securities as calculated under the Initial True-Up Ratio. The $8.7 million payment consisted of $2.5 million and $6.2 million for the Company’s and Ashford Trust’s prior contributions made to Ashford Securities, respectively, which were owed by Braemar as calculated under the Initial True-Up Ratio. On March 30, 2023, the Company paid Ashford Trust $6.2 million. On February 1, 2023, the Parties entered into a Third Amended and Restated Contribution Agreement. The Third Amended and Restated Contribution Agreement states that after reaching the Amended and Restated True-Up Date capital contributions for the remainder of fiscal year 2023 will be divided between each Party based on the actual amount of capital raised by such Party through Ashford Securities. Thereafter on a yearly basis at year-end, starting with the year-end of 2023, there will be a true-up between the Parties whereby there will be adjustments so that the capital contributions made by each Party will be based on the cumulative amount of capital raised by each Party through Ashford Securities as a percentage of the total amount raised by the Parties collectively through Ashford Securities since June 19, 2019 (the resulting ratio of capital contributions among the Company, Ashford Trust and Braemar following this true-up, the “Cumulative Ratio”). Thereafter, the capital contributions will be divided among each Party in accordance with the Cumulative Ratio, as recalculated at the end of each year. As of June 30, 2023, Ashford Trust and Braemar had funded approximately $153,000 and $17.9 million, respectively. The Company recognized cost reimbursement revenue from Ashford Trust in our condensed consolidated statements of operations of $1.6 million and $2.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, and $664,000 and $1.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The Company recognized cost reimbursement revenue from Braemar in our condensed consolidated statements of operations of $1.0 million and $4.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, and $553,000 and $897,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. Cost reimbursement revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 includes $558,000 and $785,000 of dealer manager fees earned by Ashford Securities for the placement of Ashford Trust’s non-listed preferred equity offerings, respectively. Cost reimbursement revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 includes $2.0 million of dealer manager fees earned by Ashford Securities for the placement of Braemar’s non-listed preferred equity offerings. Expiration of Ashford Trust ERFP Agreement Related Leases — On June 26, 2018, the Company entered into an Enhanced Return Funding Program Agreement with Ashford Trust (the “Ashford Trust ERFP Agreement”). Although the Ashford Trust ERFP Agreement expired in accordance with its terms on June 26, 2021, certain obligations of the parties survived. In the first quarter of 2022, Ashford Trust purchased furniture, fixtures and equipment (“FF&E”) with a net book value of $1.1 million from the Company at the fair market value of $406,000 upon expiration of the underlying leases of the FF&E under the Ashford Trust ERFP Agreement. The Company recorded a loss on sale of the FF&E of $706,000 which is included within “other” operating expense in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2022. In the fourth quarter of 2022, Ashford Trust purchased FF&E with a net book value of $3.1 million from the Company at the fair market value of $1.0 million upon expiration of the underlying leases of the FF&E under the Ashford Trust ERFP Agreement. The Company recognized a $1.0 million outstanding receivable which is recorded in “due from Ashford Trust” in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2023. In the first quarter of 2023, Ashford Trust purchased FF&E with a net book value of $1.5 million from the Company at the fair market value of $450,000 upon expiration of the underlying leases of the FF&E under the Ashford Trust ERFP Agreement. The Company recognized a $450,000 outstanding receivable which is recorded in “due from Ashford Trust” in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2023. The Company recorded a loss on the sale of the FF&E of $1.0 million which is included within “other” operating expense in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Other Related Party Transactions — On January 3, 2023, the Company acquired RHC, an affiliate owned by Mr. Monty J. Bennett, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and the Chairman of Ashford Trust and Braemar, and his father, Mr. Archie Bennett, Jr., Chairman Emeritus of Ashford Trust, from which the Company leases the offices for our corporate headquarters in Dallas, Texas. The purchase price paid was de minimis. We accounted for this transaction as an asset acquisition because substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired was concentrated in a group of similar identifiable assets. Upon the acquisition date, the operating lease asset and corresponding operating lease liability of $17.2 million associated with the Company’s lease with RHC was eliminated upon consolidation. The following table summarizes the assets and liabilities acquired by the Company on the asset acquisition date (in thousands): January 3, 2023 Restricted cash $ 849 Property and equipment, net 2,183 Operating lease right-of-use assets 15,017 Total assets acquired 18,049 Operating lease liabilities 17,200 Other liabilities 849 Total assumed liabilities 18,049 Net assets acquired $ — On March 2, 2023, the Company entered into a Limited Waiver Under Advisory Agreement (the “2023 Braemar Limited Waiver”) with Braemar, Braemar OP, and Braemar TRS and a Limited Waiver Under Advisory Agreement (the “2023 Ashford Trust Limited Waiver” and, together with the 2023 Braemar Limited Waiver, the “2023 Limited Waivers”) with Ashford Trust, Ashford Trust OP, and Ashford Trust TRS. Pursuant to the 2023 Limited Waivers, the parties to the Second Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement with Ashford Trust and the Fifth Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement with Braemar waive the operation of any provision of such agreement that would otherwise limit the ability of Ashford Trust or Braemar, as applicable, in its discretion, at its cost and expense, to award during the first and second fiscal quarters of calendar year 2023 (the “2023 Waiver Period”) , cash incentive compensation to employees and other representatives of the Company; provided that, pursuant to the 2023 Ashford Trust Limited Waiver, such awarded cash incentive compensation does not exceed $13.1 million , in the aggregate, during the 2023 Waiver Period. Ashford Inc.’s Risk Management department collects funds from the Ashford Trust and Braemar properties and their respective management companies in an amount equal to the actuarial forecast of that year’s expected casualty claims and associated fees. These funds are deposited into restricted cash and used to pay casualty claims throughout the year as they are incurred. The claim liability related to the restricted cash balance is included in current “other liabilities” in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. See note 2. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, Ashford Trust held a 15.06% noncontrolling interest in OpenKey, and Braemar held a 7.92% noncontrolling interest in OpenKey. The Company or its affiliates provide to the Bennetts or their permitted designees certain services, including, but not limited to, accounting, tax and administrative services pursuant to that certain Transition Cost Sharing Agreement entered into on November 6, 2019 in connection with Company’s acquisition of Remington from the Bennetts. The gross amount of expenses and reimbursements for these transition services for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $101,000 and $202,000, respectively. The gross amount of expenses and reimbursements for these transition services for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was $96,000 and $190,000, respectively. The expenses and reimbursements for transition services are recorded on a net basis and, therefore, the reimbursed activity does not impact our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment Reporting	Segment Reporting Our operating segments include: (a) REIT Advisory, which provides asset management and advisory services to other entities; (b) Remington, which provides hotel management services; (c) Premier, which provides comprehensive and cost-effective design, development, architectural, and project management services; (d) INSPIRE, which provides event technology and creative communications solutions services; (e) OpenKey, a hospitality focused mobile key platform that provides a universal smartphone app for keyless entry into hotel guest rooms; (f) RED, a provider of watersports activities and other travel and transportation services; and (g) Pure Wellness, which provides hypoallergenic premium rooms in the hospitality and commercial office industry. For 2023, Premier, OpenKey, RED, and Pure Wellness do not meet the aggregation criteria or the quantitative thresholds to individually qualify as reportable segments. However, we have elected to disclose Premier, RED and OpenKey as reportable segments. Accordingly, we have six reportable segments: REIT Advisory, Remington, Premier, INSPIRE, RED and OpenKey. We combine the operating results of Pure Wellness and, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, Marietta, into an “all other” seventh reportable segment, which we refer to as “Corporate and Other.” See note 3 for details of our segments’ material revenue generating activities. Our chief operating decision maker’s (“CODM”) primary measure of segment profitability is net income. Our CODM currently reviews assets at the consolidated level and does not currently review segment assets to make key decisions on resource allocations. Since such asset information by segment is not reviewed by our CODM, segment assets are not available for disclosure. Certain information concerning our segments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 are presented in the following tables (in thousands). Consolidated subsidiaries are reflected as of their respective acquisition dates or as of the date we were determined to be the primary beneficiary of variable interest entities.

Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	6 Months Ended

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation	Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation —The accompanying historical unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ashford Inc., its majority-owned subsidiaries and entities that it controls. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions between these entities have been eliminated in these historical condensed consolidated financial statements. We have condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. We believe the disclosures made herein are adequate to prevent the information presented from being misleading. However, the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 17, 2023. A variable interest entity (“VIE”) must be consolidated by a reporting entity if the reporting entity is the primary beneficiary because it has (i) the power to direct the VIE’s activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance, and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE. We determine whether we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE upon our initial involvement with the VIE and we reassess whether we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE on an ongoing basis. Our determination of whether we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE is based upon the facts and circumstances for each VIE and requires significant judgment.
Investments in Unconsolidated Entities	Investments in Unconsolidated Entities—We hold “investments in unconsolidated entities” in our condensed consolidated balance sheets, which are considered to be variable interests and voting interests in the underlying entities. Certain of our investments in variable interests are not consolidated because we have determined that we are not the primary beneficiary. Certain other investments are not consolidated as the underlying entity does not meet the definition of a VIE and we do not control more than 50% of the voting interests. We review our “investments in unconsolidated entities” for impairment in each reporting period pursuant to the applicable authoritative accounting guidance. An investment is impaired when its estimated fair value is less than the carrying amount of our investment.
Acquisitions	Acquisitions —We account for acquisitions and investments in businesses as business combinations if the target meets the definition of a business and (a) the target is a VIE and we are the target’s primary beneficiary, and therefore we must consolidate its financial statements, or (b) we acquire more than 50% of the voting interest of the target and it was not previously consolidated. We record business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires all of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. The application of the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions in the determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in order to properly allocate purchase price consideration between assets that are depreciated and amortized from goodwill. The fair value assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on management’s estimates and assumptions, as well as other information compiled by management, including valuations that utilize customary valuation procedures and techniques. Significant assumptions and estimates include, but are not limited to, the cash flows that an asset is expected to generate in the future and the appropriate weighted-average cost of capital. If the actual results differ from the estimates and judgments used in these estimates, the amounts recorded in our condensed consolidated financial statements may be exposed to potential impairment of the intangible assets and goodwill.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates —The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	Cash and Cash Equivalents—Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand or held in banks and short-term investments with an initial maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase.
Accounts Receivable	Accounts Receivable —Accounts receivable consists primarily of receivables from customers of audio visual services and third-party owned properties managed by Remington. We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of customers to make required payments for services. The allowance is maintained at a level adequate to absorb estimated receivable losses. The estimate is based on past receivable loss experience, known and inherent credit risks, current economic conditions and other relevant factors, including specific reserves for certain accounts.
Property and Equipment, net	Property and Equipment, net—Property and equipment, including assets acquired under finance leases, is depreciated using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives or lease terms if shorter. We record property and equipment at cost.
Other Liabilities	Other—As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, claims liabilities and other included reserves in the amount of $29.8 million and $23.5 million, respectively, related primarily to Ashford Trust and Braemar properties’ insurance claims and related fees. The liability for casualty insurance claims and related fees is established based upon an analysis of historical data and actuarial estimates. We record the related funds received from Ashford Trust and Braemar in “restricted cash” in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Income Taxes	Income Taxes —We are a taxable corporation for federal and state income tax purposes. Income tax expense includes U.S. federal and state income taxes, Mexico and Dominican Republic income taxes and U.S. Virgin Islands taxes. In accordance with authoritative accounting guidance, we account for income taxes using the asset and liability method under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between our consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective income tax bases. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that will more likely than not be realized. The “Income Taxes” topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification addresses the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements. The guidance requires us to determine whether tax positions we have taken or expect to take in a tax return are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authority based on the technical merits of the positions. Tax positions that do not meet the more likely than not threshold would be recorded as additional tax expense in the current period. We analyze all
Recently Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Standards	Recently Adopted Accounting Standards —In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 sets forth an “expected credit loss” impairment model to replace the current “incurred loss” method of recognizing credit losses. The standard requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for most financial assets held. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2019-10”). ASU 2019-10 revised the mandatory adoption date for public business entities that meet the definition of a smaller reporting company to be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. We adopted ASU 2016-13 and ASU 2019-10 effective January 1, 2023 and the adoption did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848 ) (“ASU 2020-04”), which provides optional guidance through December 31, 2022 to ease the potential burden in accounting for, or recognizing the effects of, reference rate reform on financial reporting. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01 , Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), which further clarified the scope of the reference rate reform optional practical expedients and exceptions outlined in Topic 848. The amendments in ASU Nos. 2020-04 and 2021-01 apply to contract modifications that replace a reference rate affected by reference rate reform, providing optional expedients regarding the measurement of hedge effectiveness in hedging relationships that have been modified to replace a reference rate. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) (“ASU 2022-06”), which deferred the sunset date of Topic 848 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. The Company applied the optional expedient in evaluating debt modifications converting from London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) to Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). The Company adopted the standards upon the respective effective dates. There was no material impact as a result of this adoption. Recently Issued Accounting Standards —In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. This ASU (1) simplifies the accounting for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock by removing the existing guidance in ASC 470-20, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options , that requires entities to account for beneficial conversion features and cash conversion features in equity, separately from the host convertible debt or preferred stock; (2) revises the scope exception from derivative accounting in ASC 815-40 for freestanding financial instruments and embedded features that are both indexed to the issuer’s own stock and classified in stockholders’ equity, by removing certain criteria required for equity classification; and (3) revises the guidance in ASC 260, Earnings Per Share
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition —Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. We determine revenue recognition through the following steps: • Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer • Identification of the performance obligations in the contract • Determination of the transaction price • Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract • Recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation In determining the transaction price, we include variable consideration only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized would not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. The following provides detailed information on the recognition of our revenues from contracts with customers: Advisory Services Fees Revenue Advisory services fees revenue is reported within our REIT Advisory segment and primarily consists of advisory fees that are recognized when services have been rendered. Advisory fees consist of base fees and incentive fees. For Ashford Trust, the base fee is paid monthly in an amount equal to 1/12 th of 0.70% of Ashford Trust’s total market capitalization plus the Net Asset Fee Adjustment, as defined in our Second Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement with Ashford Trust, as amended, subject to certain minimums. For Braemar, the base fee is paid monthly in an amount equal to 1/12 th of 0.70% of Braemar’s total market capitalization plus the Net Asset Fee Adjustment, as defined in our Fifth Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement with Braemar, as amended, subject to certain minimums. Incentive advisory fees are measured annually in each year that Ashford Trust’s and/or Braemar’s annual total stockholder return exceeds the average annual total stockholder return for each company’s respective peer group, subject to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Condition (the “FCCR Condition”), as defined in the respective advisory agreements. Incentive advisory fees are paid over a three-year period and each payment is subject to the FCCR Condition, which relates to the ratio of adjusted EBITDA to fixed charges for Ashford Trust or Braemar, as applicable. Incentive advisory fees are a form of variable consideration and therefore must be (i) deferred until such fees are probable of not being subject to significant reversal, and (ii) tied to a performance obligation in the contract with the customer so that revenue recognition depicts the transfer of the related advisory services to the customer. Accordingly, the Company does not record incentive advisory fee revenue in interim periods prior to the fourth quarter of the year in which the incentive fee is measured. The first year installment of incentive advisory fees will generally be recognized only upon measurement in the fourth quarter of the first year of the three-year period. The second- and third-year installments of incentive advisory fees are recognized as revenue on a pro-rata basis each quarter subject to meeting the FCCR Condition. Hotel Management Fees Revenue Hotel management fees revenue is reported within our Remington segment and primarily consists of base management fees, incentive management fees and other management fees. Base management fees, incentive management fees and other management fees are recognized when services have been rendered. For hotels owned by Ashford Trust and Braemar, Remington receives base management fees of 3% of gross hotel revenue for managing the hotel employees and daily operations of the hotels, pursuant to Remington’s hotel management agreements, subject to a specified floor (which is subject to increase annually based on increases in the consumer price index). Remington additionally receives an incentive management fee for hotels owned by Ashford Trust and Braemar whenever a hotel’s gross operating profit (“GOP”) exceeds the hotel’s budgeted GOP. The incentive fee is equal to the lesser of 1% of each hotel’s annual gross revenue or the amount by which the respective hotel’s GOP exceeds the hotel’s budgeted GOP. The base management fees and incentive management fees that Remington receives for third-party owned properties vary by property. Other management fees primarily includes fees for health insurance programs administered on behalf of certain third-party properties. Health insurance program fees are recognized monthly at rates which approximate market rates for similar plans provided by independent insurance companies. Other management fees additionally includes fees for fixed monthly accounting services, revenue management services and other services at certain third-party properties. Design and Construction Fees Revenue Design and construction fees revenue primarily consists of revenue generated by our subsidiary, Premier Project Management LLC (“Premier”). Premier provides design and construction management services, capital improvements, refurbishment, project management, and other services such as purchasing, interior design, architectural services and freight management at properties. Premier receives fees for these services and recognizes revenue over time as services are provided to the customer. Audio Visual Revenue Audio visual revenue primarily consists of revenue generated within our INSPIRE segment by providing event technology services such as audio visual services, audio visual equipment rental, staging and meeting services and event-related communication systems as well as related technical support, to our customers in various venues including hotels and convention centers. Revenue is recognized in the period in which services are provided pursuant to the terms of the contractual arrangements with our customers. We also evaluate whether it is appropriate to present: (i) the gross amount that our customers pay for our services as revenue, and the related commissions paid to the venue as cost of revenue; or (ii) the net amount (gross revenue less the related commissions paid to the venue) as revenue. We are responsible for the delivery of the services, including providing the necessary labor and equipment to perform the services. We are generally subject to inventory risk, have latitude in establishing prices and selecting suppliers and, while in many cases the venue bills the end customer on our behalf, we bear the risk of collection from the customer. The venues’ commissions are not dependent on collections. As a result, our revenue is primarily reported on a gross basis. Cost of revenues for audio visual principally includes commissions paid to venues, direct labor costs, the cost of equipment sub-rentals, depreciation of equipment, amortization of signing bonuses, as well as other costs such as supplies, freight, travel and other overhead from our venue and customer facing operations and any losses on equipment disposal. Other Revenue Other revenue includes revenue provided by certain of our products and service businesses, including RED. RED’s revenue is primarily generated through the provision of watersports activities and ferry and excursion services. The revenue is recognized as services are provided based on contractual customer rates. Debt placement and related fees include revenue earned from providing placement, modifications, forbearances or refinancing of certain mortgage debt by our subsidiary, Lismore Capital II LLC (“Lismore”). For certain agreements, the fees are recognized based on a stated percentage of the loan amount when services have been rendered and the subject loan, modification or other transaction is closed. For other agreements, deferred income related to the various Lismore fees will be recognized over the term of the agreement on a straight-line basis as the service is rendered, only to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue will not occur. Constraints relating to variable consideration are resolved generally upon the closing of a transaction or financing event and the resulting change in the transaction price will be adjusted on a cumulative catch-up basis in the period a transaction or financing event closes. Cost Reimbursement Revenue Cost reimbursement revenue is recognized in the period we incur the related reimbursable costs. Under our advisory agreements and our Amended and Restated Contribution Agreement with Ashford Trust and Braemar (as defined below), we are entitled to be reimbursed for certain costs we incur on behalf of Ashford Trust and Braemar, with no added mark-up. These costs primarily consist of expenses related to Ashford Securities (as defined below), overhead, internal audit, risk management advisory services and asset management services, including compensation, benefits and travel expense reimbursements. We record cost reimbursement revenue for equity grants of Ashford Trust and Braemar common stock and LTIP units awarded to our officers and employees in connection with providing advisory services equal to the fair value of the award in proportion to the requisite service period satisfied during the period. Under our project management agreements and hotel management agreements, we are entitled to be reimbursed for certain costs we incur on behalf of Ashford Trust, Braemar and other hotel owners with no added mark-up. Design and construction costs primarily consist of costs for accounting, overhead and project manager services. Hotel management costs primarily consist of the properties’ payroll, payroll taxes and benefits-related expenses at managed properties where we are the employer of the employees at the properties as provided for in our contracts with Ashford Trust, Braemar and other hotel owners. The recognition of cost reimbursement revenue and reimbursed expenses for centralized software programs reimbursed by Ashford Trust and Braemar may result in temporary timing differences in our operating and net income. Over the long term, these programs and services are not designed to impact our economics, either positively or negatively. Certain of our consolidated entities enter into contracts with customers that contain multiple performance obligations. For these contracts, we account for individual performance obligations separately if they are distinct. The transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations on a relative standalone selling price basis. We determine the standalone selling prices based on our consolidated entities’ overall pricing objectives taking into consideration market conditions and other factors, including the customer and the nature and value of the performance obligations within the applicable contracts. Practical Expedients and Exemptions We do not disclose the amount of variable consideration that we expect to recognize in future periods in the following circumstances: (1) if we recognize the revenue based on the amount invoiced or services performed; (2) if the consideration is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied promise to transfer a distinct service that forms part of a single performance obligation, and the terms of the consideration relate specifically to our efforts to transfer, or to a specific outcome from transferring the service. Deferred Income and Contract Balances Deferred income primarily consists of customer billings in advance of revenue being recognized from our advisory agreements and other products and services contracts. Generally, deferred income that will be recognized within the next 12 months is recorded as current deferred income and the remaining portion is recorded as noncurrent. The change in the deferred income balance is primarily driven by cash payments received or due in advance of satisfying our performance obligations, offset by revenue recognized that was included in the deferred income balance at the beginning of the period.

The Credit Agreement evidences a senior secured term loan facility (the “Credit Facility”) in the amount of $100.0 million, including a $50.0 million term loan funded on the closing date of the Credit Facility (the “Closing Date”) and commitments to fund up to an additional $50.0 million of term loans in up to five separate borrowings within 24 months after the Closing Date, subject to certain conditions. On April 18, 2022 and March 7, 2023, the Company drew an additional $20.0 million and $12.0 million on the Credit Facility, respectively. The Credit Facility is a five-year interest-only facility with all outstanding principal due at maturity, with three successive one-year extension options subject to an increase in the interest rate during each extension period. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement will bear interest, at the Company’s option, at either Adjusted Term SOFR plus an applicable margin, or the Base Rate plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin for borrowings under the Credit Agreement for Adjusted Term SOFR loans will be 7.35% per annum and the applicable margin for Base Rate loans will be 6.35% per annum, with increases to both applicable margins of 0.50%, 0.75% and 1.00% per annum during each of the three extension periods, respectively. The remaining undrawn balance of the Credit Facility is subject to an unused fee of 1.0% during the first 24 months of the term, payable on the last business day of each month. The Credit Facility included an original issue discount of $2.0 million on the Closing Date. As of June 30, 2023, the amount unused under the Credit Facility was $18.0 million. (10) On March 24, 2023, INSPIRE amended its credit agreement by entering into the INSPIRE Amendment. The INSPIRE Amendment increased the maximum borrowing capacity under INSPIRE’s Revolving Note from $3.0 million to $6.0 million, provides for a $20.0 million Term Note and an Equipment Note pursuant to which, until September 24, 2027, INSPIRE may request advances up to $4.0 million in the aggregate to purchase new machinery or equipment to be used in the ordinary course of business. The INSPIRE Amendment extended the maturity date of INSPIRE’s Notes from January 1, 2024 to March 24, 2028. Monthly principal payments commence on April 1, 2023 for the Term Note in the amount of approximately $167,000. Borrowings under the Revolving Note require monthly payments of interest only until the maturity date and borrowings under the Equipment Note require monthly principal payments at 1/60th of the original principal amount of each advance. The Notes bear interest at the BSBY Rate plus a margin of 2.75% and the undrawn balance of the Revolving Note and the Equipment Note are subject to an unused fee of 0.25% per annum. As of June 30, 2023, the amount unused under INSPIRE’s revolving credit facility was $4.3 million. As of June 30, 2023, no balances had been drawn on the Equipment Note. (11) On March 9, 2021, we acquired all of the redeemable noncontrolling interests in OpenKey for a purchase price of approximately $1.9 million. Pursuant to the agreement, the purchase price will be paid to the seller in equal monthly installments over a seven year term and will include interest in arrears at an annualized rate of 4.0%. The purchase price is payable in Ashford Inc. common stock, including a 10% premium, or cash at our sole discretion.

(15) On July 23, 2021, RED entered into a term loan agreement with a maximum principal amount of $900,000. (16) On March 17, 2022, in connection with the purchase and construction of marine vessels, RED entered into two closed-end non-revolving line of credit loans of $1.5 million each which convert to term loans once fully drawn. Each loan bears an interest rate of 5.0% for the first three years. After three years, the interest rate is equal to the Prime Rate plus 0.5% with a floor of 5.0%. (17) On September 15, 2022, RED entered into a closed-end non-revolving line of credit for $1.5 million that converts into an individual term loan each time RED draws upon the facility. As of June 30, 2023, RED had drawn the full amount allowed under the line of credit. Maturity dates for amounts drawn under the facility are November 30, 2027, December 28, 2027 and January 20, 2028. (18) On February 2, 2023, OpenKey entered into a loan funding agreement with Braemar with a maximum loan amount of $395,000. As of June 30, 2023, the remaining unused loan balance was $237,000. (19) On March 17, 2023, in connection with the acquisition of Alii Nui, RED entered into two term loans of $1.7 million and $2.4 million. RED is required to make monthly payments on the term loans starting April 17, 2023. (20) On March 17, 2023, in connection with the Alii Nui acquisition, RED issued 80,000 RED Units at $25 per unit with a liquidation value of $2.0 million. The RED Units accrue interest at 6.5% per annum with required quarterly payments. The RED Units are considered a form of financing the acquisition of Alii Nui under current accounting guidance and is recorded as a non-current note payable in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. See note 4. (21) On May 19, 2023, RED entered into a term loan for two vessels. The interest rate is equal to the Prime Rate plus 1.00% and the note matures on May 19, 2033. RED is required to make monthly principal payments on the term loan starting in June 2023.

In determining fair value, the Company estimates Chesapeake’s future performance using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The key assumptions in applying the Monte Carlo simulation model are a) a discount rate, with a range of 35.58% to 36.41%; b) a forward - looking risk-free rate, with a range of 5.09% to 5.38%; and c) a volatility rate of 55.37%.

(4) Design and construction fees revenue primarily consists of revenue generated within our Premier segment by providing design, development, architectural and project management services for which Premier receives fees. See note 3 for discussion of the design and construction fees revenue recognition policy. (5) INSPIRE and RED primarily contract directly with third-party customers to whom they provide services. INSPIRE and RED recognize the gross revenue collected from their customers by the hosting hotel or venue. Commissions retained by the hotel or venue, including Braemar, for INSPIRE and RED are recognized in “cost of revenues for audio visual” and “other” operating expense, respectively, in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. See note 3 for discussion of the revenue recognition policy. (6) Watersports, ferry and excursion services revenue includes revenue that is earned by RED for providing services directly to Braemar rather than contracting with third-party customers. (7) Debt placement and related fees are earned by Lismore for providing debt placement, modification and refinancing services. (8) Cash management fees include revenue earned by providing active management and investment of Braemar’s excess cash in short-term U.S. Treasury securities. (9) Claims management services include revenue earned from providing insurance claim assessment and administration services. (10) Other services revenue is primarily associated with other hotel products and services, such as mobile key applications and hypoallergenic premium rooms, provided to Braemar by our consolidated subsidiaries, OpenKey and Pure Wellness. (11) See note 17 for discussion of segment reporting. (12) The Corporate and Other segment’s revenue includes cost reimbursement revenue from Braemar’s capital contributions to Ashford Securities under the Third Amended and Restated Contribution Agreement between the Company, Ashford Trust and Braemar. Capital contributions are divided between the Company, Ashford Trust and Braemar based upon the actual amount of capital raised through Ashford Securities for each company which may result in increases or decreases to cost reimbursement revenue in any given reporting period. See discussion regarding Ashford Securities below.
