PART I
Item 1. Business
FelCor Lodging Trust Incorporated, or FelCor, is a Maryland corporation and one of the nation’s largest public lodging real estate investment trusts, or REITs, based on total assets and number of hotels owned. We are the sole general partner of, and the owner of a greater than 95% partnership interest in, FelCor Lodging Limited Partnership, or FelCor LP, through which we held ownership interests in 130 hotels with approximately 37,000 rooms and suites at December 31, 2005. When used in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, “we” and “our” refer to FelCor and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless otherwise indicated.
At December 31, 2005, we owned a 100% interest in 101 hotels, a 90% or greater interest in entities owing seven hotels, a 75% interest in an entity owning one hotel, a 60% interest in an entity owning two hotels and a 50% interest in entities owning 19 hotels. As the result of our ownership interests in the operating lessees of 125 of these hotels, we reflect their operating revenues and expenses in our consolidated statements of operations. The operating revenues and expenses of the remaining five hotels were reported on the equity method, four hotels were operated by 50% owned lessees and one hotel, in which we had a 50% ownership interest, was operated without a lease.
Our hotels included in continuing operations at December 31, 2005 were located in the United States (28 states) and Canada, with concentrations in Texas (25 hotels), California (19 hotels), Florida (15 hotels) and Georgia (12 hotels). We own the largest number of Embassy Suites Hotels and independently owned Doubletree-branded hotels. At December 31, 2005, we owned interests in 35 hotels that we had identified as non-strategic assets to be sold.
Our business is conducted in one reportable segment, which is hospitality. During 2005, we derived 98% of our revenues from hotels located within the United States and the balance from our Canadian hotels.
We seek to increase operating cash flow through aggressive asset management and the competitive positioning of our hotels, to maintain a sound and flexible capital structure, and to reposition our portfolio through the sale of non-strategic hotels, investment in capital expenditures at our existing hotels that we expect to provide a high return on investment and investment in newer, higher quality hotels in major urban and resort markets with greater growth potential. The hotels in which we may invest are expected to be affiliated with, or to benefit from affiliation with, one of the premium brands available to us.
At December 31, 2005, we had an aggregate of 62,972,039 shares and units outstanding, consisting of 60,209,499 shares of FelCor common stock and 2,762,540 units of limited partnership interest of FelCor LP not owned by FelCor.
Additional information relating to our hotels and our business, including the charters of our Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee, Compensation Committee and Audit Committee; our corporate governance guidelines; and our code of business conduct and ethics can be found on our website at www.felcor.com. Information relating to our hotels and our business can also be found in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements located elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Our annual, quarterly and current reports, and amendments to these reports, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or Exchange Act, are made available on our website, free of charge, under the “SEC Filings” tab on our “Investor Relations” page, as soon as practicable following their filing. The public may read and copy any materials we file with the SEC at the SEC’s Public Reference Room at 450 Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549. The public may also obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. The SEC also maintains an Internet site that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC atwww.sec.gov.
We submitted the certification of the Chief Executive Officer of FelCor required by Section 303A. 12(a) of the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, Listed Company Manual, relating to FelCor’s compliance with the NYSE’s corporate governance listing standards, to the NYSE on July 8, 2005 with no qualifications. We included the certifications of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of FelCor required by Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and related rules, relating to the quality of FelCor’s public disclosure, in this Annual Report on Form 10-K as Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2.

Developments During 2005
We completed 2005 with a 10.8% increase in our hotel revenue per available room, or RevPAR, compared to 2004. This was the second year of RevPAR increases following an unprecedented consecutive three year decline in RevPAR that we had experienced prior to 2004. The fundamentals of the lodging industry appear to be strong, as evidenced by the national trend of increased RevPAR and increases in average daily room rates, or ADR, which represent a major portion of the increase in RevPAR. The increase in ADR also resulted in a 116 basis point increase in our Hotel Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization margin, or Hotel EBITDA margin, at our hotels in continuing operations. Hotel EBITDA margin is a commonly used non-GAAP measure described in more detail and reconciled to GAAP measures in the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition in Item 7 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
During 2005, we reduced our debt outstanding by $92 million with the proceeds of asset sales, extinguishment of debt by the transfer of hotels to their non-recourse mortgage holder and the use of cash on hand. Through the issuance of $169 million of new 8% Series C redeemable preferred stock, we also retired all $169 million of our 9% Series B redeemable preferred stock.
Of the 26 hotels previously identified for sale at December 31, 2004, we sold 11 during 2005 for gross sale proceeds of $79 million and surrendered eight limited service hotels, owned by a consolidated joint venture, to their non-recourse mortgage holder for extinguishment of $49 million in debt.
In 2005, we re-established and paid a fourth quarter common dividend of $0.15 per share. We also paid preferred dividends of $1.95 per share on our Series A preferred stock, a pro rata $1.125 per depositary share on our Series B preferred stock for the period prior to retirement and a pro rata initial year preferred dividend of $1.6333 per depositary share on our Series C preferred stock.
In 2005, we started construction on our 184 unit Royale Palms condominium development in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, which is expected to be completed in the summer of 2007. This project is over 90% pre-sold.
Recent Developments
Amendment to IHG Management Agreements
On January 24, 2006, we announced that we had executed an agreement modifying our management agreements covering our hotels managed by InterContinental Hotels Group, or IHG. This agreement will enable us to complete our repositioning program and create “New FelCor.”
The amendment to our IHG management agreements eliminates any potential liquidated damages and reinvestment requirement with respect to IHG-managed hotels previously sold, 30 additional IHG-managed hotels to be sold and one Crowne Plaza hotel to be converted to another brand. The management agreements on the remaining 17 IHG-managed hotels have been extended to 2025 and include a new management performance standard and restructured incentive fees.
In connection with this agreement, we have identified 11 Crowne Plaza hotels, 12 Holiday Inn-branded hotels, one Staybridge Suites hotel and an independent branded hotel as non-strategic assets for sale. These 25 hotels are in addition to five IHG-managed hotels previously identified as non-strategic. These non-strategic hotels include all of our Holiday Inn hotels that are located in secondary and tertiary markets, as well as 10 hotels in Texas. Hospitality Properties Trust, or HPT, purchased five of the non-strategic Crowne Plaza hotels, a Holiday Inn-branded hotel and the Staybridge Suites hotel in January 2006 for $160 million.
The 17 IHG-managed Holiday Inn-branded hotels that we are retaining are located in desirable markets that are primarily in urban locations in the Northeast, the East Coast and California. We have committed to special capital expenditure plans that total approximately $50 million at 11 of these hotels designed to maximize the value of these hotels.
The completion of the agreement with IHG enables us to sell our non-strategic hotels, use the proceeds to reduce debt and invest in high return-on-investment capital projects at our remaining core hotels. New FelCor will become a lower-leveraged company with a stronger and renovated portfolio. Our repositioned portfolio will provide us a solid platform for future growth in today’s strong RevPAR environment.

New FelCor
New FelCor, following the disposition of our remaining non-strategic hotels, will own 90 consolidated hotels, with 81% of its Hotel EBITDA derived from hotels in the upper upscale segment, that are located primarily in Top 25 and resort markets.
| • | | The average Hotel EBITDA per room for our 90 core hotels is more than 2.5 times higher than our non-strategic hotels for the year ended December 31, 2005. |
|
| • | | Hotel EBITDA growth for the year ended December 31, 2005, for our 90 core hotels was 15%, as compared to only 1% for our non-strategic hotels. |
|
| • | | Hotel EBITDA margins for the year ended December 31, 2005, were 28% for our 90 core hotels compared to only 17% for our non-strategic hotels. |
|
| • | | High return capital projects should provide a boost to our future Hotel EBITDA growth. |
Repositioning
At December 31, 2005, we had 35 non-strategic hotels for sale. These hotels are located primarily in secondary and tertiary markets, and include hotels in Texas and Atlanta, Georgia, where we had an excess concentration of hotels. Our repositioning strategy includes:
| • | | The sale of seven hotels previously identified as non-strategic, including five IHG-managed hotels, one of which was sold in January 2005. |
|
| • | | The sale of 25 additional IHG-managed hotels, including the seven hotels sold to HPT in January 2006. |
|
| • | | The sale of three additional hotels not managed by IHG. |
|
| • | | Total proceeds from hotel sales are expected to be between $485 and $535 million, which is in addition to $15 million in proceeds from the sale of three hotels in December 2005, representing an EBITDA multiple of between 12 and 13 times 2005 Hotel EBITDA. |
|
| • | | The Crowne Plaza in San Francisco at Union Square will be converted to another brand by the end of 2006. |
In connection with this repositioning, we recorded an impairment charge of $263 million in the fourth quarter of 2005 primarily associated with the amendment of the IHG agreements and our decision to sell additional non-strategic hotels.
Although the 35 non-strategic hotels represent 29% of our rooms at December 31, 2005, they only represent 14% of our Hotel EBITDA for 2005. The hotels to be sold have significantly lower RevPAR and Hotel EBITDA margins than our 90 core hotels. Following the sale of the 35 non-strategic hotels, New FelCor will have significantly lower exposure to markets with low barriers to entry, such as Atlanta, Dallas, Houston and Omaha, and will be more geographically diverse with no market contributing more than 6% of EBITDA. The sale hotels will be marketed through exclusive broker arrangements that are listed on our web site at www.felcor.com.

Use of Proceeds/Capitalization
Total proceeds from the 35 non-strategic hotels identified for sale are expected to be between $485 and $535 million. The asset sales are expected to occur in 2006 and 2007 and the proceeds will be used primarily to invest in capital improvement projects at many of our core hotels and to pay down approximately $385 million of debt. This is in addition to proceeds of $15 million from the sale of three hotels in December 2005, used to pay down debt.
We plan to use approximately $100 to $150 million of the sales proceeds to fund capital improvement projects to be completed over the next 18 months. These projects are in addition to maintenance capital expenditures of approximately 5% of annual hotel revenues. These capital projects consist of adding meeting space and completing major renovations to hotels where we expect that additional rate and occupancy can be captured.
Additionally in January 2006, we re-established an unsecured $125 million line of credit, that will allow us to use our excess cash to fund additional high-return capital projects.
FelCor’s IHG-Branded Portfolio
The 17 core Holiday Inn-branded hotels being retained by us, including six Holiday Inn Select-branded hotels, are comprised of high quality hotels located on desirable real estate. We are also retaining our unconsolidated interest in the Chateau LeMoyne hotel located in New Orleans that is managed by IHG. These hotels have higher average Hotel EBITDA margins than the average of our current upper upscale, full service hotels. In addition, for the year ended December 31, 2005, these hotels earned almost twice the Hotel EBITDA per room generated by the non-strategic hotels to be sold.

Management Changes
In February 2006, we announced the appointment of Thomas J. Corcoran, Jr. as Chairman of the Board, Richard A. Smith as President and Chief Executive Officer and Andrew J. Welch as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. At the same time, we announced that Donald J. McNamara resigned his position as Chairman of the Board, but will remain on our Board of Directors, and that Michael D. Rose resigned from our Board of Directors. Mr. Rose’s position on the Board of Directors will be filled by Mr. Smith. In March 2006, we announced the appointment of Troy A. Pentecost as Executive Vice President and Director of Asset Management, replacing Jack Eslick. Mr. Corcoran co-founded FelCor in 1991 with Hervey Feldman and has served as President and Chief Executive Officer since our formation. Mr. Smith joined FelCor in 2004 as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Welch was most recently Senior Vice President and Treasurer for FelCor. Mr. Pentecost was formerly with Remington Hotel Corporation.
The Industry
The industry experienced strong growth in 2005 as indicated by an 8.4% increase in RevPAR, continuing the momentum generated in 2004, according to Smith Travel Research, or STR, a leading provider of industry data. This increase stemmed from both additional room demand and a significant improvement in ADR. In 2005, the industry sold 3.3% more room nights than in 2004. Combined with only a slight increase (0.4%) of available room nights, the U.S. occupancy rate grew to 63.1%, the highest level since 2000. At $90.84, ADR surpassed the $90 hurdle for the first time in industry history.
Supply growth in lodging product, a significant lead indicator of the performance of existing lodging real estate, continues to stay benign. Since 2003, the average annual supply growth has been 0.8% compared to the long-term average of 2.1% from 1989 to 2005.
A number of industry sources predict that 2006 will see a continuation of the growth over the last two years. Macroeconomic Advisers forecasts Real Gross Domestic Product, or GDP adjusted for inflation, growth to be 3.8% in 2006 and 3.5% in 2007. This indication of the ongoing strength of the U.S. economy, both strong leisure and business travel demand and the limited new supply growth, causes us to look optimistically into the near future. STR predicts that 2006 occupancy levels – fueled by a 3.1% increase in demand and only a 1.2% increase in supply – will surpass 2000 levels and reach 64.3%. At the same time, ADR is expected to grow by 6.0% resulting in a RevPAR increase of 8.0%. PricewaterhouseCoopers, or PwC, another leading source of lodging data, predicts that the U.S. RevPAR will increase by 7.3% and 6.2% in 2006 and 2007 respectively. PwC also predicts that the lodging industry profits (measured in income before income taxes) will increase by 20.9% and surpass 2000 levels. However, these predicted growth rates are not uniform across the country and assume that no major external event such an act of terrorism or natural disaster affect the U.S. economy and the travel and lodging industries.
STR classifies hotel chains into six distinct categories: Luxury, Upper Upscale, Upscale, Midscale with Food & Beverage, Midscale without Food & Beverage, and Economy. We own properties in the Upper Upscale (including Doubletree Guest Suites, Doubletree, Embassy Suites Hotels, Sheraton and Westin hotels), Upscale (Crowne Plaza), and Midscale With Food & Beverage (Holiday Inn) categories, from which we derived approximately 99% of our EBITDA in 2005. More than 58% of our EBITDA in 2005 was derived from upper upscale all-suite hotels.
STR also categorizes hotels based upon their relative market positions, as measured by ADR, as Luxury, Upscale, Midprice, Economy and Budget. The following table contains information with respect to average occupancy (determined by dividing occupied rooms by available rooms), ADR and RevPAR for our hotels, as well as all Upscale U.S. hotels, all Midprice U.S. hotels and all U.S. hotels, as reported by STR, for the periods indicated.

Business Strategy
We have identified three long-term strategic objectives: growth in our earnings; improvement in our return on invested capital; and a reduction in our overall financial leverage. In order to achieve these strategic objectives, our business strategy is to: dispose of non-strategic hotels; improve the competitive positioning of our core hotels through aggressive asset management and the judicious application of capital with the expectation of obtaining a high return on investment; and pay down debt through a combination of operational cash flow, the sale of non-strategic hotels and, if appropriate, other capital transactions. We continue to examine our portfolio to address market supply and concentration of risk issues. Additionally, we are considering external growth, through the acquisition of hotels, which does three things: increase long-term shareholder value, improve the quality of our portfolio and improve both our market distribution and future EBITDA growth.
Sale of Non-Strategic Hotels
Under the management agreements entered into with IHG in 2001 and amended in 2004, we were obligated to reinvest the net proceeds from the sale of IHG-managed hotels in other IHG-managed hotels or pay substantial liquidated damages to IHG. This potential exposure to liquidated damages made it impractical to sell IHG-managed hotels. In January 2006, we executed an agreement modifying our management agreements covering our hotels managed by IHG. This agreement eliminates any potential liquidated damages or reinvestment requirement with respect to hotels previously sold, IHG-managed hotels now identified for sale and one Crowne Plaza hotel to be converted to another brand. We can now seek to sell hotels that we have deemed non-strategic, which include our Crowne Plaza hotels, all of our Holiday Inn hotels in secondary and tertiary markets and hotels in markets where we have an excess concentration of hotels such as Texas and Atlanta, Georgia.
We began negotiating the amendment to our IHG management agreements in 2005. In October 2005, our Audit Committee conditionally approved an impairment charge on certain hotels, if and only if a definitive agreement with IHG was reached. We provided an update on the negotiations with IHG to our Executive Committee of the Board of Directors in December 2005, and at that time concluded that if a definitive agreement could be finalized, a material impairment charge would be necessary. We finalized the definitive agreement

with IHG in January 2006. As a result of the agreement, we determined that it was more likely than not that certain hotels would be sold significantly before the end of their previously estimated useful life, triggering an impairment charge of $263 million, which was recorded as of December 31, 2005 with respect to 25 IHG-managed hotels, three hotels not managed by IHG and two IHG-managed hotels that we had previously designated as non-strategic.
At December 31, 2005, we had 35 hotels designated as non-strategic, substantially all of which we intend to sell in 2006 and 2007. Eight of these hotels were sold in January 2006.
Refined Investment Strategy
The completion of the agreement with IHG enables us to sell our non-strategic hotels and use the proceeds to reduce debt and invest in high return-on investment capital projects at our remaining core hotels. We currently plan on spending between $175 million and $200 million on hotel capital improvements in 2006. As we focus on improving our core portfolio through renovations and repositionings, our portfolio will be positioned to have above average growth. Any future acquisition efforts will be focused on higher quality hotels in markets with significant barriers to entry, such as central business districts and resort locations. Hotel brand and market segment will be secondary concerns when we are considering investment opportunities.
Improving the Competitive Positioning of Our Hotels
We seek to improve the competitive position of our hotels through aggressive asset management and the maintenance of strong relationships with our brand-owner managers. While REIT requirements prohibit us from directly managing our hotels, we work closely with our brand-owner managers to actively monitor and review hotel operations. We strongly urge our managers to implement best practices in expense management at our hotels, and we strive to influence brand strategy on marketing and revenue enhancement programs. Consistent with our commitment to position our hotels to best take advantage of the current recovery in the lodging industry, we have continued making both revenue enhancing and maintenance capital improvements at our hotels. During 2005, we spent $127 million on capital expenditures, including capital improvements made by our unconsolidated joint ventures, representing approximately 10% of total revenue. Additionally, in 2005, our repair and maintenance expense represented 6.9% of our hotel room revenue from continuing operations. We expect our 2006 capital expenditures will be between $175 and $200 million. We plan to use a portion of the proceeds from the sale of non-strategic hotels to fund capital projects such as adding meeting space or completing major renovations to hotels where we expect that additional rate and occupancy can be captured. Additionally, we have re-established an unsecured line of credit that will allow us to use excess cash to fund additional high-return capital projects.
Paydown of Debt
We are committed to pay down our debt, while maintaining short-term liquidity. In 2005, we reduced our consolidated debt by $92 million. We plan to use approximately $400 million of sale proceeds from non-strategic hotels to pay down debt. In January 2006, we used proceeds from the sale of eight hotels, cash on hand and a draw of $45 million under our line of credit to pay off our $225 million term loan.
At December 31, 2005, we had cash balances of $95 million. Our cash balances included approximately $31 million held under our hotel management agreements to meet our hotel minimum working capital requirements. We have no significant nonextendable debt maturities until 2007, when approximately $134 million in debt matures in excess of normal recurring principal payments. We will continue to seek opportunities to reduce our debt and our cost of capital on an economically sound basis.
Strategic Relationships
We benefit from our brand-owner and manager alliances with Hilton Hotels Corporation (Embassy Suites Hotels, Hilton and Doubletree), InterContinental Hotels Group PLC (Crowne Plaza and Holiday Inn) and Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc. (Sheraton and Westin). These relationships enable us to work effectively with our managers to maximize Hotel EBITDA margins and operating cash flow from our hotels .

Competition
The hotel industry is highly competitive. Each of our hotels is located in a developed area that includes other hotel properties and competes for guests primarily with other full service and limited service hotels in its immediate vicinity and secondarily with other hotel properties in its geographic market. We believe that location, brand recognition, the quality of the hotel, the services provided, and price are the principal competitive factors affecting our hotels.
Environmental Matters
We customarily obtain a Phase I environmental survey from an independent environmental consultant before acquiring a hotel. The principal purpose of a Phase I survey is to identify indications of potential environmental contamination for which a property owner may have liability and, secondarily, to assess, to a limited extent, the potential for environmental regulatory compliance liabilities. The Phase I surveys of our hotels were designed to meet the requirements of the then current industry standards governing Phase I surveys, and consistent with those requirements, none of the surveys involved testing of groundwater, soil or air. Accordingly, they do not represent evaluations of conditions at the studied sites that would be revealed only through such testing. In addition, their assessment of environmental regulatory compliance issues was general in scope and was not a detailed determination of the hotel’s complete environmental compliance status. Similarly, the surveys did not involve comprehensive analysis of potential offsite liability. The Phase I survey reports did not reveal any environmental liability that we believe would have a material adverse effect on our business, assets or results of operations, nor are we aware of any such liability. Nevertheless, it is possible that these reports do not reveal or accurately assess all environmental liabilities and that there are material environmental liabilities of which we are unaware.
We believe that our hotels are in compliance, in all material respects, with all federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations regarding hazardous substances and other environmental matters, the violation of which could have a material adverse effect on us. We have not been notified by any governmental authority or
9
private party of any noncompliance, liability or claim relating to hazardous or toxic substances or other environmental matters in connection with any of our current or former properties that we believe would have a material adverse effect on our business, assets or results of operations. However, obligations for compliance with environmental laws that arise or are discovered in the future may adversely affect our financial condition.
Tax Status
We elected to be taxed as a REIT under the federal income tax laws, commencing with our initial taxable year ended December 31, 1994. As a REIT, we generally are not subject to federal income taxation at the corporate level on taxable income that is distributed to our stockholders. We may, however, be subject to certain state and local taxes on our income and property. A REIT is subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it currently distribute at least 90% of its annual taxable income. In connection with our election to be taxed as a REIT, our charter imposes restrictions on the ownership and transfer of shares of our common stock. FelCor LP expects to make distributions on its units sufficient to enable us to meet our distribution obligations as a REIT. As a result of the passage of the REIT Modernization Act, in 2001 we acquired or terminated all of our hotel leases and contributed them to taxable REIT subsidiaries, or TRSs. These TRSs are subject to both federal and state income taxes. At December 31, 2005, our TRSs had a federal income tax loss carry forward of $419 million.
Employees
Thomas J. Corcoran, Jr., our Chairman of the Board of Directors, entered into a new employment agreement with us in February 2006 that continues in effect until February 1, 2011. Mr. Richard A. Smith, our President and Chief Executive Officer, entered into an employment agreement with us in February 2006 that continues into effect until February 1, 2008. Both Mr. Corcoran’s and Mr. Smith’s agreements automatically renew for successive one-year terms unless terminated by either party. All of our executive officers, including Messers. Corcoran and Smith, have change in control contracts that renew annually. We had 76 full-time employees at December 31, 2005.
All persons employed in the day-to-day operation of our hotels are employees of the management companies engaged by us and are not our employees.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Certain statements and analyses contained in this Annual Report onForm 10-K, in our 2006 Annual Report to Shareholders, or that may in the future be made by, or be attributable to, us, may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate” or “continue” or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology. All of such forward-looking statements are based upon present expectations and assumptions that may or may not actually occur. The following factors constitute cautionary statements identifying important factors, including material risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected in such forward-looking statements or in our historical results. Each of the following factors, among others, could adversely affect our ability to meet the current expectations of management.
Future terrorist activities and United States military involvement in the Middle East and elsewhere may result in reducing business and leisure travel, which would reduce our revenues.
The terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, caused a significant disruption in travel-related businesses in the United States. Consistent with the rest of the lodging industry, we experienced substantial declines in occupancy and ADR, due to a decline in both business and leisure travel in 2001 and the continued decline in business travel in 2002 and 2003. While the lodging industry experienced the beginnings of a recovery in 2004 and strong growth in 2005, another act of terrorism in the United States, protracted or expanded United States military involvement in the War on Terrorism, heightened “Threat Levels,” contractions in the airline industry, or increased security precautions making air travel more difficult could result in decreases in travel and our revenues. The factors described above, as well as other political or economic events, may adversely affect the lodging industry, including us, as a result of reduced public travel.
10
Our financial leverage is high.
At December 31, 2005, our consolidated debt of $1.7 billion represented 52% of our total market capitalization. The decline in our revenues and cash flow from operations during 2001, 2002 and 2003, have resulted in a reduction of our public debt ratings and may limit our access to additional debt capital. Our senior unsecured public notes currently are rated B1 by Moody’s Investors Service, and B by Standard & Poor’s, which are considered below investment grade. Historically, we have incurred debt for acquisitions and to fund our renovation, redevelopment and rebranding programs. Limitations upon our access to debt financing could adversely affect our ability to fund these activities and programs in the future.
We had increases in RevPAR in 2004 and 2005, but if RevPAR worsens, it could result in a continuation, or worsening, of our net losses and reduce our ability to pay dividends and service our debt.
Our financial leverage could have important consequences. For example, it could:
| • | | limit our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, renovation, redevelopment and rebranding plans, acquisitions, debt service requirements and other purposes; |
|
| • | | require us to agree to additional restrictions and limitations on our business operations and capital structure to obtain additional financing; |
|
| • | | increase our vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions, as well as to fluctuations in interest rates; |
|
| • | | require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to payments on our debt, thereby reducing funds available for capital expenditures, future business opportunities, the payment of dividends or other purposes; |
|
| • | | limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we compete; and |
|
| • | | place us at a competitive disadvantage, compared to our competitors that have less debt. |
We may be able to incur substantial debt in the future, which could increase the risk described above. The covenants under our $125 million line of credit would have allowed us to incur an additional $627 million of debt at December 31, 2005. Based upon our calculation of the limitations under our senior notes, described below, assuming additional debt was borrowed at a 7% annual interest rate and invested in assets generating annual Hotel EBITDA equal to 7% of their cost, at December 31, 2005, we could have incurred approximately $1.2 billion of additional indebtedness, all of which could have been secured indebtedness.
We have restrictive debt covenants that could adversely affect our ability to finance our operations or engage in other business activities.
The indentures governing our outstanding senior unsecured notes and agreements governing our line of credit contain various restrictive covenants and incurrence tests, including, among others, provisions that can restrict our ability to:
| • | | incur any additional indebtedness if, after giving effect thereto, our consolidated indebtedness would exceed 60% of our adjusted total assets or our interest coverage ratio, as defined in the indentures, would be less than 2.0 to 1; |
|
| • | | incur any additional secured indebtedness or subsidiary debt if, after giving effect thereto, our consolidated secured indebtedness and subsidiary debt exceeds 40% of our adjusted total assets; |
|
| • | | make common and preferred distributions; |
|
| • | | make investments; |
|
| • | | engage in transactions with affiliates; |
|
| • | | incur liens; |
|
| • | | merge or consolidate with another person; |
11
| • | | dispose of all or substantially all of our assets; and |
|
| • | | permit limitations on the ability of our subsidiaries to make payments to us. |
These restrictions may adversely affect our ability to finance our operations or engage in other business activities that may be in our best interest.
Under the terms of the indentures governing one of our outstanding senior notes, we are prohibited from repurchasing any of our capital stock, whether common or preferred, subject to certain exceptions, so long as our debt-to-EBITDA ratio, as defined in the indenture, exceeds 4.85 to 1. Although our current debt-to-EBITDA ratio is below that threshold, a decline in our EBITDA, or an increase in our debt could raise our ratio above the 4.85 to 1 threshold. Accordingly, we may be prohibited from purchasing any of our capital stock, except as permitted under limited exceptions, such as from the proceeds of a substantially concurrent issuance of other capital stock.
If actual operating results were to be significantly below our current expectations, as reflected in our public guidance, or if interest rates increase significantly more than we expect, we may be unable to continue to satisfy the incurrence test under the indentures governing our senior unsecured notes. In such an event, we may be prohibited from incurring additional indebtedness, except to repay or refinance maturing debt with debt of similar priority in the capital structure, and may be prohibited from, among other things, paying distributions on our preferred or common stock, except to the extent necessary to satisfy the REIT qualification requirement that we distribute currently at least 90% of our taxable income.
In January 2006, we established a new $125 million unsecured line of credit. This line of credit has certain restrictive covenants, such as a leverage ratio, fixed charge coverage ratio, an unencumbered leverage ratio and a maximum payout ratio.
The breach of any of these covenants and limitations under our line of credit could result in acceleration of amounts outstanding under our line of credit. Our failure to timely satisfy any judgment or recourse indebtedness, if in the amount of $10 million or more, could result in the acceleration of most of our unsecured recourse indebtedness. We may not be able to refinance or repay our debt in full under those circumstances.
Future or existing relationships may result in certain of our directors and officers having interests that conflict with ours.
Adverse tax consequences to affiliates upon a sale of certain hotels.Thomas J. Corcoran, Jr., our Chairman of the Board of Directors, and Robert A. Mathewson, a director, may incur additional tax liability if we sell our investments in six hotels that we acquired in July 1994 from partnerships in which they were investors. Consequently, our interests could differ from Messrs. Corcoran’s and Mathewson’s interests in the event that we consider a sale of any of these hotels. Decisions regarding a sale of any of these six hotels must be made by a majority of our independent directors.
Conflicts of interest.A director who has a conflict of interest with respect to an issue presented to our board will have no legal obligation to abstain from voting upon that issue. We do not have provisions in our bylaws or charter that require an interested director to abstain from voting upon an issue, and we do not expect to add provisions in our charter and bylaws to this effect. Although each director has a duty of loyalty to us, there is a risk that, should an interested director vote upon an issue in which he or one of his affiliates has an interest, his vote may reflect a bias that could be contrary to our best interests. In addition, even if an interested director abstains from voting, the director’s participation in the meeting and discussion of an issue in which he has, or companies with which he is associated have, an interest could influence the votes of other directors regarding the issue.
We are subject to the risks inherent in the hospitality industry.
The economic slowdown that ran from 2001 through 2003 had a significant adverse effect on our RevPAR performance and results of operations. If the current economic recovery does not continue, the effects on our financial condition could be material.We experienced declines in RevPAR, beginning in March 2001 through 2003. A sharp reduction in business travel was the primary cause of the RevPAR decline. The decreased occupancies led to declines in room rates, as hotels competed more aggressively for guests. Both of
12
these factors had a significant adverse effect on our RevPAR, Hotel EBITDA margins and results of operations. Primarily as a result of the concentration of our hotels in certain markets, the RevPAR performance of our hotels differ from the national average. The following table reflects the RevPAR changes experienced by our hotels, as a group on a same-store basis, compared to all U.S. hotels, as a group, for the past three calendar years.
| | | | | | |
| | Change in RevPAR |
| | Year Ended December 31, |
| | 2005 | | 2004 | | 2003 |
All FelCor hotels | | +10.8% | | +5.0% | | –3.9% |
All U.S. hotels | | +8.4% | | +7.8% | | +0.4% |
If the current economic recovery stalls, or if the lodging industry fails to benefit from the recovery for a protracted period of time, or if the markets in which we have significant concentrations should fail to participate in the continued recovery in the industry, our results of operations and financial condition could deteriorate.
Investing in hotel assets involves special risks.We have invested in hotel-related assets, and our hotels are subject to all of the risks common to the hotel industry. These risks could adversely affect hotel occupancy and the rates that can be charged for hotel rooms, and generally include:
| • | | competition from other hotels; |
|
| • | | construction of more hotel rooms in a particular area than needed to meet demand; |
|
| • | | the current high cost of, and any further increases in, fuel costs and other travel expenses, inconveniences and other events that reduce business and leisure travel; |
|
| • | | adverse effects of declines in general and local economic activity; |
|
| • | | fluctuations in our revenue caused by the seasonal nature of the hotel industry; |
|
| • | | an outbreak of a pandemic disease affecting the travel industry; |
|
| • | | a downturn in the hotel industry; and |
|
| • | | risks generally associated with the ownership of hotels and real estate, as discussed below. |
We could face increased competition.Each of our hotels competes with other hotels in its geographic area. A number of additional hotel rooms have been, or may be, built in a number of the geographic areas in which our hotels are located, which could adversely affect both occupancy and rates in the markets in which our hotels are located. A significant increase in the supply of Midprice, Upscale and Upper Upscale hotel rooms and suites, if demand fails to increase at least proportionately, could have a severe adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We face reduced coverages and increased costs of insurance.Our property insurance has a $100,000 all risk deductible, a deductible of 3% of insured value for named windstorm coverage and a deductible of 5% of insured value for California earthquake coverage. Should uninsured or not fully insured losses be substantial, they could have a material adverse impact on our operating results, cash flows and financial condition. Additional catastrophic losses, such as the losses caused by hurricanes Katrina, Rita and Wilma in 2005, could make the cost of insuring against these types of losses prohibitively expensive or difficult to find. In an effort to keep our cost of insurance within reasonable limits, we have only purchased terrorism insurance for those hotels that are secured by mortgage debt, as required by our lenders. Our terrorism insurance policies have both per occurrence and aggregate limits of $50 million with regard to 65 hotels. We have established a self-insured retention of $250,000 per occurrence for general liability insurance with regard to 71 of our hotels. The remainder of our hotels participate in general liability programs sponsored by our managers, with no deductible.
We have geographic concentrations that may create risks from regional or local economic, seismic or weather conditions.At December 31, 2005, approximately 58% of our hotel rooms were located in, and 53% of our 2005 Hotel EBITDA was generated from, four states: California, Florida, Georgia and Texas. Additionally, at December 31, 2005, we had concentrations in four major metropolitan areas, Atlanta, the Los Angeles area, Dallas and Orlando, which together represented approximately 24% of our Hotel EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2005. Therefore, adverse economic, seismic or weather conditions in these states or metropolitan areas will have a greater adverse effect on us than on the industry as a whole.
13
We had 35 hotels at December 31, 2005, substantially all of which we intend to sell in 2006 and 2007.We may be unable to sell these hotels at acceptable prices, or at all, within the proposed time frame. If we are unable to sell these hotels at anticipated prices, we may realize additional losses upon sale. Even if we are successful in selling these hotels as contemplated, if we fail to reinvest the net proceeds in a manner that will generate returns equal to, or better than, the hotels sold, our results of operations will be adversely affected.
We are subject to possible adverse effects of franchise and license agreement requirements. Substantially all of our hotels are operated under existing franchise or license agreements with nationally recognized hotel brands. Each agreement requires that the licensed hotel be maintained and operated in accordance with specific standards and restrictions in order to maintain uniformity within the franchisor system. Compliance with these standards, and changes in these standards, could require us to incur significant expenses or capital expenditures, which could adversely affect our results of operations and ability to pay dividends to our stockholders and service on our indebtedness.
If a franchise or license agreement terminates due to our failure to make required improvements, we may be liable to the brand manager or franchisor for a termination payment. These termination payments vary by agreement and hotel, but are generally measured by a multiple of between two and 8.2 times the annual fees received by the franchisor or brand manager. The loss of a substantial number of brand licenses could have a material adverse effect on our business because of the loss of associated name recognition, marketing support and centralized reservation systems provided by the brand manager or franchisor. Our franchise agreements also expire or terminate, subject to certain specified renewal rights, at various times. As a condition of the renewal or extension of the franchise agreements, the brand owner may require the payment of substantial fees and may require substantial capital improvements to be made to the hotels for which we would be responsible. During the next five years, the franchise or license agreements applicable in respect of 15 of our hotels are scheduled to expire in accordance with their terms.
We are subject to the risks of brand concentration.We are subject to the potential risks associated with the concentration of our hotels under a limited number of brands. A negative public image or other adverse event that becomes associated with the brand could adversely affect hotels operated under that brand.
The following table reflects the percentage of Hotel EBITDA from our consolidated portfolio of 125 hotels included in continuing operations as of December 31, 2005, generated by hotels operated under each of the indicated brands during the year ended December 31, 2005:
| | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | % of 2005 |
| | | | | | Hotel |
| | Hotels | | EBITDA |
Embassy Suites Hotels | | | 54 | | | | 51 | % |
Holiday Inn-branded hotels | | | 33 | | | | 22 | |
Sheraton-branded hotels | | | 10 | | | | 11 | |
Doubletree-branded hotels | | | 9 | | | | 6 | |
Crowne Plaza hotels | | | 12 | | | | 6 | |
Other | | | 7 | | | | 4 | |
Should any of these brands suffer a significant decline in popularity with the traveling public, it could adversely affect our revenues and profitability.
We are subject to the risks of hotel operations.Through our ownership of the lessees of our hotels, we are subject to the risk of fluctuating hotel operating expenses at our hotels, including, but not limited to:
| • | | wage and benefit costs; |
|
| • | | repair and maintenance expenses; |
|
| • | | gas and electricity costs; |
|
| • | | insurance costs, including health, general liability and workers compensation; and |
|
| • | | other operating expenses. |
14
In addition, we are subject to the risks of a decline in Hotel EBITDA margins, which occurs when hotel operating expenses increase disproportionately to revenues. These operating expenses and Hotel EBITDA margins are within the control of our brand-owner managers, over which we have limited control, resulting in an increased risk of volatility in our results of operations.
The lodging business is seasonal in nature.Generally, hotel revenues for our hotel portfolio are greater in the second and third calendar quarters than in the first and fourth calendar quarters, although this may not be true for hotels in major tourist destinations. Revenues for hotels in tourist areas generally are substantially greater during tourist season than other times of the year. Seasonal variations in revenue at our hotels can be expected to cause quarterly fluctuations in our revenues. Quarterly earnings also may be adversely affected by events beyond our control, such as extreme weather conditions, economic factors and other considerations affecting travel.
We lack control over the management and operations of our hotels.We are dependent on the ability of independent third party managers to operate and manage our hotels. In order to maintain our REIT status, we cannot operate our hotels or any subsequently acquired hotels. As a result, we are unable to directly implement strategic business decisions for the operation and marketing of our hotels, such as decisions with respect to the setting of room rates, the salary and benefits provided to hotel employees, the conduct of food and beverage operations and similar matters.
Our ability to grow or sustain our business may be limited by our ability to attract debt or equity financing, and we may have difficulty accessing capital on attractive terms.
We may not be able to fund future growth and operations solely from cash provided from operating activities because of our obligation to distribute at least 90% of our taxable income each year to maintain our status as a REIT and any future decline in cash flow. Consequently, we may be forced to rely upon the proceeds of hotel sales or the availability of debt or equity capital to fund hotel acquisitions and necessary capital improvements, and we may be dependent upon our ability to attract debt financing from public or institutional lenders. The capital markets have been, and in the future may be, adversely affected by various events beyond our control, such as the United States’ military involvement in the Middle East and elsewhere, the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, the ongoing War on Terrorism by the United States and the bankruptcy of major companies. Similar events, such as an escalation in the War on Terrorism, new terrorist attacks, or additional bankruptcies in the future, as well as other events beyond our control, could adversely affect the availability and cost of capital for our business. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in attracting sufficient debt or equity financing to fund future growth and operations, or to pay or refinance existing debt, at an acceptable cost, or at all.
We own, and may acquire, interests in hotel joint ventures with third parties that expose us to some risk of additional liabilities or capital requirements.
We own, through our subsidiaries, interests in several real estate joint ventures with third parties. Joint ventures that are not consolidated into our financial statements owned a total of 19 hotels, in which we had an aggregate investment of $109 million, at December 31, 2005. The operations of 14 of these hotels are included in our consolidated results of operations due to our majority ownership of the lessees of these hotels. None of our directors or officers hold any interest in any of these ventures. Our joint venture partners are affiliates of Hilton with respect to 12 hotels, affiliates of Starwood with respect to one hotel, and private entities or individuals with respect to six hotels. The ventures and hotels were subject to non-recourse mortgage loans aggregating $204 million at December 31, 2005.
The personal liability of our subsidiaries under existing non-recourse loans secured by the hotels of our joint ventures is generally limited to the guaranty of the borrowing ventures’ personal obligations to pay for the lender’s losses caused by misconduct, fraud or misappropriation of funds by the ventures and other typical exceptions from the non-recourse covenants in the mortgages, such as those relating to environmental liability. We may invest in other ventures in the future that own hotels and have recourse or non-recourse debt financing. If a venture defaults under its mortgage loan, the lender may accelerate the loan and demand payment in full before taking action to foreclose on the hotel. As a partner or member in any of these ventures, our subsidiary may be exposed to liability for claims asserted against the venture, and the venture may not have sufficient assets or insurance to discharge the liability.
15
Our subsidiaries may not legally be able to control decisions being made regarding these ventures and their hotels. In addition, the hotels in a venture may perform at levels below expectations, resulting in the potential for insolvency of the venture unless the partners or members provide additional funds. In some ventures, the partners or members may elect to make additional capital contributions. We may be faced with the choice of losing our investment in a venture or investing additional capital in it with no guaranty of receiving a return on that investment.
As a REIT, we are subject to specific tax laws and regulations, the violation of which could subject us to significant tax liabilities.
The federal income tax laws governing REITs are complex.We have operated, and intend to continue to operate, in a manner that is intended to enable us to qualify as a REIT under the federal income tax laws. The REIT qualification requirements are extremely complicated, and interpretations of the federal income tax laws governing qualification as a REIT are limited. Accordingly, we cannot be certain that we have been, or will continue to be, successful in operating so as to qualify as a REIT. At any time, new laws, interpretations or court decisions may change the federal tax laws relating to, or the federal income tax consequences of, qualification as a REIT.
Failure to make required distributions would subject us to tax.Each year, a REIT must pay out to its stockholders at least 90% of its taxable income, other than any net capital gain. To the extent that we satisfy the 90% distribution requirement, but distribute less than 100% of our taxable income, we will be subject to federal corporate income tax on our undistributed taxable income. In addition, we will be subject to a 4% nondeductible tax if the actual amount we pay out to our stockholders in a calendar year is less than the minimum amount specified under federal tax laws. FelCor’s only source of funds to make such distributions comes from distributions from FelCor LP. Accordingly, we may be required to borrow money or sell assets to enable us to pay out enough of our taxable income to satisfy the distribution requirements and to avoid corporate income tax and the 4% tax in a particular year.
Failure to qualify as a REIT would subject FelCor to federal income tax.If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we would be subject to federal income tax at regular corporate rates on our taxable income for any such taxable year for which the statute of limitations remains open. We might need to borrow money or sell hotels in order to obtain the funds necessary to pay any such tax. If we cease to be a REIT, we no longer would be required to distribute most of our taxable income to our stockholders. Unless our failure to qualify as a REIT was excused under federal income tax laws, we could not re-elect REIT status until the fifth calendar year following the year in which we failed to qualify.
A sale of assets acquired from Bristol Hotel Company, or Bristol, within ten years after the merger may result in us incurring corporate income tax.If we sell any asset acquired from Bristol within ten years after our 1998 merger with Bristol, and we recognize a taxable gain on the sale, we will be taxed at the highest corporate rate on an amount equal to the lesser of:
| • | | the amount of gain recognized at the time of the sale; or |
|
| • | | the amount of gain that we would have recognized if we had sold the asset at the time of the Bristol merger for its then fair market value. |
The sales of Bristol hotels that have been made to date have not resulted in any material amount of tax liability to us. If we are successful in selling the hotels that we have designated as sale hotels, the majority of which are Bristol hotels, we could incur corporate income tax with respect to the related built-in gain.
Departure of key personnel would deprive us of the institutional knowledge, expertise and leadership they provide.
Our management includes the Chairman of the Board, currently Mr. Corcoran, the President and Chief Executive Officer, currently Mr. Smith, and four Executive Vice Presidents. The persons in these positions generally possess institutional knowledge about our organization and the hospitality or real estate industries, have significant expertise in their fields, and possess leadership skills that are important to our operations. The loss of any of our senior executive officers or Chairman of the Board could adversely affect our ability to execute our business strategy.
16
We are subject to the risks of real estate ownership, which could increase our costs of operations.
General Risks.Our investments in hotels are subject to the numerous risks generally associated with owning real estate, including among others:
| • | | adverse changes in general or local economic or real estate market conditions; |
|
| • | | changes in zoning laws; |
|
| • | | increases in supply or competition; |
|
| • | | changes in traffic patterns and neighborhood characteristics; |
|
| • | | increases in assessed valuation and real estate tax rates; |
|
| • | | increases in the cost of property insurance; |
|
| • | | recent and future increases in the cost of wood, steel, concrete and other building materials, which increase the cost of renovations, expansions and new construction; |
|
| • | | costly governmental regulations and fiscal policies; |
|
| • | | the potential for uninsured or underinsured property losses; |
|
| • | | the potential that we are unable to meet all requirements under the Americans with Disabilities Act; |
|
| • | | the impact of environmental laws and regulations; and |
|
| • | | other circumstances beyond our control. |
Moreover, real estate investments are relatively illiquid, and we may not be able to adjust our portfolio in a timely manner to respond to changes in economic and other conditions.
Compliance with environmental laws may adversely affect our financial condition.Owners of real estate are subject to numerous federal, state, local and foreign environmental laws and regulations. Under these laws and regulations, a current or former owner of real estate may be liable for the costs of remediating hazardous substances found on its property, whether or not it was responsible for their presence. In addition, if an owner of real property arranges for the disposal of hazardous substances at another site, it may also be liable for the costs of remediating the disposal site, even if it did not own or operate the disposal site. Such liability may be imposed without regard to fault or the legality of a party’s conduct and may, in certain circumstances, be joint and several. A property owner may also be liable to third parties for personal injuries or property damage sustained as a result of its release of hazardous or toxic substances, including asbestos-containing materials, into the environment. Environmental laws and regulations may require us to incur substantial expenses and limit the use of our properties. We could have substantial liability for a failure to comply with applicable environmental laws and regulations, which may be enforced by the government or, in certain instances, by private parties. The existence of hazardous substances on a property can also adversely affect the value of, and the owner’s ability to use, sell or borrow against, the property.
We cannot provide assurances that future or amended laws or regulations, or more stringent interpretations or enforcement of existing environmental requirements, will not impose any material environmental liability, or that the environmental condition or liability relating to the hotels will not be affected by new information or changed circumstances, by the condition of properties in the vicinity of such hotels, such as the presence of leaking underground storage tanks, or by the actions of unrelated third parties.
Compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act may adversely affect our financial condition.Under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, all public accommodations, including hotels, are required to meet certain federal requirements for access and use by disabled persons. Various state and local jurisdictions have also adopted requirements relating to the accessibility of buildings to disabled persons. We believe that our hotels substantially comply with the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act and other applicable laws. However, a determination that the hotels are not in compliance with these laws could result in liability for both governmental fines and payments to private parties. If we were required to make unanticipated major
17
modifications to our hotels to comply with the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act and other similar laws, it could adversely affect our ability to make distributions to our stockholders and to pay our obligations.
Our charter contains limitations on ownership and transfer of shares of our stock that could adversely affect attempted transfers of our capital stock.
To maintain our status as a REIT, no more than 50% in value of our outstanding stock may be owned, actually or constructively, under the applicable tax rules, by five or fewer persons during the last half of any taxable year. Our charter prohibits, subject to some exceptions, any person from owning more than 9.9%, as determined in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code and the Exchange Act, of the number of outstanding shares of any class of our stock. Our charter also prohibits any transfer of our stock that would result in a violation of the 9.9% ownership limit, reduce the number of stockholders below 100 or otherwise result in our failure to qualify as a REIT. Any attempted transfer of shares in violation of the charter prohibitions will be void, and the intended transferee will not acquire any right in those shares. We have the right to take any lawful action that we believe is necessary or advisable to ensure compliance with these ownership and transfer restrictions and to preserve our status as a REIT, including refusing to recognize any transfer of stock in violation of our charter.
Some provisions in our charter and bylaws and Maryland law make a takeover of us more difficult.
Ownership Limit.The ownership and transfer restrictions of our charter may have the effect of discouraging or preventing a third party from attempting to gain control of us without the approval of our board of directors. Accordingly, it is less likely that a change in control, even if beneficial to stockholders, could be effected without the approval of our board.
Staggered Board. Our board of directors is divided into three classes. Directors in each class are elected for terms of three years. As a result, the ability of stockholders to effect a change in control of us through the election of new directors is limited by the inability of stockholders to elect a majority of our board at any particular meeting.
Authority to Issue Additional Shares.Under our charter, our board of directors may issue up to an aggregate of 20 million shares of preferred stock without stockholder action. The preferred stock may be issued, in one or more series, with the preferences and other terms designated by our board that may delay or prevent a change in control of us, even if the change is in the best interests of stockholders. As of December 31, 2005, we had outstanding 12,880,475 shares of our Series A preferred stock and 67,980 shares, represented by 6,798,000 depositary shares, of our Series C preferred stock.
Maryland Takeover Statutes.As a Maryland corporation, we are subject to various provisions under the Maryland General Corporation Law, including the Maryland Business Combination Act, that may have the effect of delaying or preventing a transaction or a change in control that might involve a premium price for the stock or otherwise be in the best interests of stockholders. Under the Maryland business combination statute, some “business combinations,” including some issuances of equity securities, between a Maryland corporation and an “interested stockholder,” which is any person who beneficially owns 10% or more of the voting power of the corporation’s shares, or an affiliate of that stockholder, are prohibited for five years after the most recent date on which the interested stockholder becomes an interested stockholder. Any of these business combinations must be approved by a stockholder vote meeting two separate super majority requirements, unless, among other conditions, the corporation’s common stockholders receive a minimum price, as defined in the statute, for their shares and the consideration is received in cash or in the same form as previously paid by the interested stockholder for its common shares. Our charter currently provides that the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act will not apply to any of our existing or future stock. That statute may deny voting rights to shares involved in an acquisition of one-tenth or more of the voting stock of a Maryland corporation. To the extent these or other laws are applicable to us, they may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of us even though beneficial to our stockholders.

Our hotels have an average of approximately 290 rooms, with six hotels having 500 or more rooms. Although obsolescence arising from age and condition of facilities can adversely affect our hotels, we have spent approximately $500 million, in the aggregate, during the past six years to upgrade, renovate and/or redevelop our hotels to enhance or maintain their competitive position. We are committed to maintaining the high standards of our hotels. In 2005, we spent $112 million on consolidated hotel capital expenditures and spent 6.9% of our consolidated room revenue from continuing operations on maintenance and repair expense.
Hotel Brands
A key part of our business strategy is to have our hotels managed by one of our brand-owner manager alliances. Our hotels are operated under some of the nation’s most recognized and respected hotel brands. We maintain relationships with our brand owners, who also manage substantially all of our hotels. We are the owner of the largest number of Embassy Suites Hotels and independently owned Doubletree-branded hotels. The following table illustrates the distribution of our hotels among these premier brands at December 31, 2005.

Management Agreements
The management agreements governing the operation of 68 of our hotels that are (i) managed by IHG or Starwood under brands owned by them, or (ii) managed by Hilton under the Doubletree or Hilton brands, contain the right and license to operate the hotels under the specified brands. No separate franchise agreements or payment of separate franchise fees are required for the operation of these hotels.
Management Fees and Performance Standards.Under the management agreements with IHG for 45 of our hotels operated under Holiday Inn and Crowne Plaza names, the TRS lessees generally pay IHG a basic management fee for each hotel equal to 2% of total revenue of the hotel plus 5% of the room revenue of the hotel (which is the equivalent of a franchise fee) for each fiscal month during the initial term and any renewal term. The minimum basic management fees owed under the other management agreements are generally as follows:
| • | | Embassy Suites Hotels (54 hotels) — 2% of the hotel’s total revenue per month; |
|
| • | | Sheraton — Westin (11 hotels) — 2% of the hotel’s total revenue per month; and |
|
| • | | Doubletree (9 hotels) — between 2% and 3% of the hotel’s total revenue per month. |
The IHG management agreements, as amended in January 2006, with regard to the 17 core IHG-managed hotels require the TRS lessees to pay an incentive management fee on a hotel by hotel basis measured as a percentage of hotel net operating income, as defined in the agreements. These incentive management fees for each hotel are subordinate to an 8.5% return on our investment basis in the hotel and limited to 2.5% of the hotel’s revenues. For the remainder of the IHG-managed hotels, the TRS lessees are required to pay an incentive management fee based on the performance of these hotels, considered in the aggregate. The incentive management fee is computed as a percentage of hotel profits in excess of specified returns to us, based on our investment basis in the managed hotels.
The management agreements with the other managers generally provide for an incentive management fee based on a percentage of the TRS lessee’s net income before overhead up to an additional 2% of revenues, on a hotel by hotel basis, or, an incentive management fee measured as a percentage of cash flow, subordinate to a 12% return on our investment basis in the hotel, subject to the same 2% of revenues maximum. The management fees we paid with respect to hotels in continuing operations during each of the past three years are as follows (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | |

Total | | $ | 43,456 | | | $ | 40,472 | | | $ | 39,157 | |
| | | | | | | | | |
Term and Termination.The management agreements with IHG terminate in 2007 for 31 hotels and 2025 for 17 hotels. The management agreements with the other managers generally have initial terms of between 5 and 20 years, and the agreements are generally renewable beyond the initial term for a period or periods of between 5 and 10 years only upon the mutual written agreement of the parties. The management agreements covering our hotels expire, subject to any renewal rights, as follows:

The management agreements are generally terminable upon the occurrence of standard events of default or if the hotel subject to the agreement fails to meet certain financial expectations. Upon termination by either party for any reason, the TRSs generally will pay all amounts due and owing under the management agreement through the effective date of termination. If an agreement is terminated as a result of a default by us, we may also be liable for damages suffered by the manager. Under the IHG management agreements, if we sell certain core hotels, we may be required to pay IHG a monthly replacement management fee equal to the existing fee structure for up to one year and liquidated damages or reinvest the sale proceeds into another hotel to be branded under an IHG brand. In addition, if a TRS breaches the agreement, resulting in a default and its termination, or otherwise causes or suffers a termination for any reason other than an event of default by IHG, the TRS may be liable for liquidated damages under the terms of the management agreement.
Assignment.Generally, neither party to the management agreements has the right to sell, assign or transfer the agreements to an unaffiliated third party without the prior written consent of the other party to the agreement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. A change in control of either party will generally require the other’s consent, which may not be unreasonably withheld.
Franchise Agreements
Other than our 68 hotels, whose license to use a brand name are contained in the management agreement governing their operations, each of our remaining hotels operates under a separate franchise or license agreement. Of our 57 hotels that are operated under a separate franchise or license agreement, 54 are operated under the Embassy Suites Hotels brand.
The Embassy Suites Hotels franchise license agreements to which we are a party grant us the right to the use of the Embassy Suites Hotels name, system and marks with respect to specified hotels and establish various management, operational, record-keeping, accounting, reporting and marketing standards and procedures with which the licensed hotel must comply. In addition, the franchisor establishes requirements for the quality and condition of the hotel and its furnishings, furniture and equipment, and we are obligated to expend such funds as may be required to maintain the hotel in compliance with those requirements.
Typically, our Embassy Suites Hotels franchise license agreements provide for payment to the franchisor of a license fee or royalty of 4% of suite revenues. In addition, we pay approximately 3.5% of suite revenues as marketing and reservation system contributions for the systemwide benefit of Embassy Suites Hotels. The license fees we paid with respect to hotels in continuing operations, during each of the past three years are as follows (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | License Fees Paid During | |
| | Year Ended December 31, | |
Brand | | 2005 | | | 2004 | | | 2003 | |
Embassy Suites Hotels | | $ | 17,400 | | | $ | 16,340 | | | $ | 15,658 | |
Other | | | 492 | | | | 493 | | | | 529 | |
| | | | | | | | | |
Total | | $ | 17,892 | | | $ | 16,833 | | | $ | 16,187 | |
| | | | | | | | | |
Our typical Embassy Suites Hotels franchise license agreement provides for a term of 20 years, but we have a right to terminate the license for any particular hotel on the 10th or 15th anniversary of the agreement upon payment by us of an amount equal to the fees paid to the franchisor with respect to that hotel during the two preceding years. The agreements provide us with no renewal or extension rights. The agreements are not assignable by us and a change in control of the franchisee will constitute a default on our part. In the event we breach one of these agreements, in addition to losing the right to use the Embassy Suites Hotels name for the operation of the applicable hotel, we may be liable, under certain circumstances, for liquidated damages equal to the fees paid to the franchisor with respect to that hotel during the three preceding years. Franchise license agreements covering 13 of our Embassy Suites Hotels expire within the next five years. Franchise license agreements covering our hotels expire as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Number of Franchise Agreements Expiring in |

Item 3. Legal Proceedings
At December 31, 2005, there was no litigation pending or known to be threatened against us or affecting any of our hotels, other than claims arising in the ordinary course of business or which are not considered to be material. Furthermore, most of these ordinary course of business claims are substantially covered by insurance. We do not believe that any claims known to us, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on us.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

Stockholder Information
At March 1, 2006, we had approximately 320 holders of record of our common stock and approximately 50 holders of record of our Series A preferred stock (which is convertible into common stock). It is estimated that there were approximately 8,500 beneficial owners, in the aggregate, of our common stock and Series A preferred stock at that date.
IN ORDER TO COMPLY WITH CERTAIN REQUIREMENTS RELATED TO OUR QUALIFICATION AS A REIT, OUR CHARTER LIMITS, SUBJECT TO CERTAIN EXCEPTIONS, THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK THAT MAY BE OWNED BY ANY SINGLE PERSON OR AFFILIATED GROUP TO 9.9% OF THE OUTSTANDING COMMON STOCK.
Distribution Information
In the fourth quarter of 2005, we resumed paying a common dividend, with a $0.15 per share dividend paid on December 1, 2005. We did not declare any dividends on FelCor’s common stock in 2004. We have continued to pay the full accrued dividends on our outstanding preferred stock.
Our current 2006 operating plan contemplates the continued payment of common and preferred stock dividends, assuming that our announced expectations of 2006 operating performance are met. This operating plan, and our policy regarding dividends, may change, depending upon our actual results of operations, our continued ability to meet the incurrence test under our outstanding senior notes, our success in selling non-strategic hotels and other factors. We currently expect our board of directors to consider the amount, if any, to be distributed on a quarterly basis in preferred and common dividends, based upon the actual operating results of that quarter, economic conditions and other operating trends. Accordingly, future distributions, if any, paid by us will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on our actual cash flow, financial condition, capital requirements, the annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and such other factors as our board of directors deems relevant.
31
In order to maintain our qualification as a REIT, we must make annual distributions to our stockholders of at least 90% of our taxable income (which does not include net capital gains). For the year ended December 31, 2005, our common distribution represented approximately 81% return of capital. For the year ended December 31 2004, distributions to preferred stockholders satisfied our annual distribution requirements. Under certain circumstances, we may be required to make distributions in excess of cash available for distribution in order to meet REIT distribution requirements. In that event, we presently would expect to borrow funds, or to sell assets for cash, to the extent necessary to obtain cash sufficient to make the distributions required to retain our qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes.
Issuances of Unregistered Securities
All issuances of unregistered securities have been previously reported.

(4) | | Commencing with the fourth quarter 2005, we reinstituted a common dividend. We had declared a quarterly common dividend on our common stock from our inception through 2002, but as a result of the uncertain geopolitical environment and soft business climate, together with the decline in margins resulting from continued declines in our portfolio’s average daily rate, our board of directors suspended the payment of dividends on our common stock in 2003 and 2004. We have, however, continued to pay the full accrued dividends on our outstanding preferred stock. |

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
General
We completed 2005 with a 10.8% increase in our hotel revenue per available room, or RevPAR, compared to 2004. This was the second year of RevPAR increases following an unprecedented consecutive three year decline in RevPAR that we had experienced prior to 2004. The fundamentals of the lodging industry appear to be strong, as evidenced by the national trend of increased RevPAR and increases in average daily room rates, or ADR, which represent a major portion of the increase in RevPAR. The increase in ADR also resulted in a 116 basis point increase in Hotel earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, margin at our hotels.
During 2005, we reduced our debt outstanding by $92 million with the proceeds of asset sales, extinguishment of debt through the transfer of hotels to their non-recourse mortgage holder and the use of cash on hand. Through the issuance of $169 million of new 8% Series C redeemable preferred stock, we also retired all $169 million of our 9% Series B redeemable preferred stock.
Of the 26 hotels previously identified for sale at December 31, 2004, we sold 11 during 2005 for gross sale proceeds of $79 million and surrendered eight limited service hotels, owned by a consolidated joint venture, to their non-recourse mortgage holder for extinguishment of $49 million in debt.
Under the management agreements entered into with InterContinental Hotels Group, or IHG, in 2001 and amended in 2004, we were obligated to reinvest the net proceeds from the sale of IHG-managed hotels in other IHG-managed hotels or pay substantial liquidated damages to IHG. This potential exposure to liquidated damages made it impractical to sell IHG-managed hotels. In January 2006, we executed an agreement modifying our management agreements covering our hotels managed by IHG. This agreement eliminated any potential liquidated damages and reinvestment requirement with respect to hotels previously sold, IHG-managed hotels now identified for sale and one Crowne Plaza hotel to be converted to another brand. We are now able to sell hotels that we have determined to be non-strategic, which include all of our Holiday Inn hotels in secondary and tertiary markets and hotels in markets where we have an excess concentration of hotels, such as Texas and Atlanta, Georgia. As a result of our decision to seek to sell certain hotels, we determined that it was more likely than not that they would be sold significantly before the end of their previously estimated useful life, triggering an impairment charge of $263 million, which was recorded as of December 31, 2005 with respect to 25 IHG-managed hotels, three hotels not managed by IHG and two IHG-managed hotels that we had previously designated as non-strategic. At December 31, 2005, we had 35 hotels designated as non-strategic, substantially all of which we intend to sell in 2006 and 2007. Eight of these hotels were sold in January 2006.

RevPAR and Hotel Operating Margin
In 2005, we had our second consecutive year-over-year increase in RevPAR. For the year, our RevPAR increased 10.8% from $67.03 to $74.27. The increase in RevPAR consisted of a 4.4% increase in occupancy to 69.3% and a 6.2% increase in ADR. We attribute the increase in RevPAR largely to a nationwide lodging industry recovery and improvements from some major capital projects completed in 2004 and 2005. In 2005, a significant portion of the improvement in RevPAR came from an increase in ADR. We expect this trend of increasing RevPAR to continue in 2006 and further believe that improvements in ADR will continue to be a significant portion of the growth in RevPAR. This is significant to the lodging industry, because increases in room rate generally result in increases in Hotel EBITDA margins. We have seen a firming of Hotel EBITDA margin at our hotels, which improved from 24.1% in 2004 to 25.2% in 2005, and we expect to see further improvements in 2006 as ADR continues to be a significant factor in RevPAR improvement. We are focused on working with our brand managers to control the expense creep that generally occurs during the early years of a lodging industry recovery, to continue to improve our Hotel EBITDA margins.
36
Sale of Non-Strategic Hotels
Under the management agreements entered into with IHG in 2001 and amended in 2004, we were obligated to reinvest the net proceeds from the sale of IHG-managed hotels in other IHG-managed hotels or pay substantial liquidated damages to IHG. This potential exposure to liquidated damages made it impractical to sell IHG-managed hotels. In January 2006, we executed an agreement modifying our management agreements covering our hotels managed by IHG. This agreement eliminates any potential liquidated damages or reinvestment requirement with respect to hotels previously sold, IHG-managed hotels now identified for sale and one Crowne Plaza hotel to be converted to another brand. We can now seek to sell hotels that we have deemed non-strategic, which include all of our Holiday Inn hotels in secondary and tertiary markets and hotels in markets where we have an excess concentration of hotels, such as Texas and Atlanta, Georgia.
We began negotiating the amendment to our IHG management agreements in 2005. In October 2005, our Audit Committee conditionally approved an impairment charge on certain hotels, if and only if a definitive agreement with IHG was reached. We provided an update on the negotiations with IHG to our Executive Committee of the Board of Directors in December 2005, and at that time concluded that if a definitive agreement could be finalized, a material impairment charge would be necessary. We finalized the definitive agreement with IHG in January 2006, which enables us to sell certain IHG-managed hotels without liquidated damages or reinvestment requirements and removed the liquidated damage and reinvestment requirement for hotels already sold. As a result of the agreement, we determined that it was more likely than not that certain hotels would be sold significantly before the end of their previously estimated useful life, triggering an impairment charge of $263 million, which was recorded as of December 31, 2005 with respect to 25 IHG-managed hotels, three hotels not managed by IHG and two IHG-managed hotels that we had previously designated as non-strategic.
In connection with this agreement with IHG, seven hotels were sold to Hospitality Properties Trust, or HPT, in January 2006, for $160 million. These hotels, which will continue to be managed by IHG, consisted of five Crowne Plaza hotels, one Holiday Inn hotel and one Staybridge Suites hotel. Six of these hotels are located in markets where we had an excess concentration of hotels.
When testing for recoverability we generally use historical and projected cash flows over the expected hold period. When determining fair value for purposes of determining impairment we use a combination of historical and projected cash flows and other available market information, such as recent sales prices for similar assets in specific markets. The estimated cash flows used to test for recoverability are undiscounted while the cash flows used for determining fair values are discounted using a reasonable capitalization rate, or as earlier noted based on the local market conditions using recent sales of similar assets.
At December 31, 2005, we had 35 hotels designated as non-strategic, substantially all of which we intend to sell in 2006 and 2007. Eight of these hotels were sold in January 2006. These hotels are located primarily in secondary and tertiary markets, and include hotels in Texas and Atlanta, Georgia, where we had an excess concentration of hotels. Our repositioning strategy includes:
| • | | The sale of seven hotels previously identified as non-strategic, including five IHG-managed hotels, one of which was sold in January 2006. |
|
| • | | The sale of 25 additional IHG-managed hotels, including the seven hotels sold to HPT in January 2006. |
|
| • | | The sale of three additional hotels not managed by IHG. |
|
| • | | Total proceeds from hotel sales are expected to be between $485 and $535 million representing an EBITDA multiple of between 12 and 13 times 2005 Hotel EBITDA. |
|
| • | | The Crowne Plaza in San Francisco at Union Square will be converted to another brand by the end of 2006. |
Although the 35 non-strategic hotels represent 29% of our rooms at December 31, 2005, they only represent 14% of our Hotel EBITDA. The hotels to be sold have significantly lower RevPAR and Hotel EBITDA margins than our 90 core hotels. Following the sale of the 35 non-strategic hotels, we will have significantly lower exposure to markets with low barriers to entry, such as Atlanta, Dallas, Houston and Omaha, and will be more geographically diverse with no market contributing more than 6% of EBITDA.
37
Refined Investment Strategy
The completion of the agreement with IHG enables us to sell our non-strategic hotels and use the proceeds to reduce debt and invest in high return-on investment capital projects at our remaining core hotels. We currently plan on spending between $175 million and $200 million on hotel capital improvements in 2006. As we focus on improving our core portfolio through renovations and repositionings, we believe our portfolio will be positioned to have above average growth. Any future acquisition efforts will be focused on higher quality hotels in markets with significant barriers to entry, such as central business districts and resort locations. Hotel brand and market segment will be secondary concerns when we are considering investment opportunities.
Results of Operations
Comparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2005 and 2004
For the year ended December 31, 2005, we recorded a loss applicable to common stockholders of $298 million, compared to a loss of $135 million in 2004. We had a loss from continuing operations of $263 million compared to a prior year loss of $82 million. Contributing to 2005 loss from continuing operations were impairment charges of $263 million, $15 million related to the early retirement of debt and $6 million in losses from hurricanes.
Total revenue from continuing operations increased $96 million, or 8.7%, compared to the prior year. The increase in revenue is principally attributed to a 10.8% increase in RevPAR compared to 2004. The increase in RevPAR came from increases in both ADR and occupancy and represents increases in all of our top markets. The lodging industry nationwide continues to experience increased demand, but there have been only limited increases in room supply leading to strong improvements in RevPAR in most markets.
In 2005, 57% of our increased RevPAR was attributed to increases in ADR. Increased ADR typically improves Hotel EBITDA margin because the hotels are receiving more revenue for each guest. For 2005, our Hotel EBITDA margin improved 116 basis points over 2004.
Total operating expenses increased by $75 million but decreased as a percentage of total revenue from 91.4% to 90.3%. Hotel departmental expenses, which consist of rooms expense, food and beverage expense, and other operating departments, increased $19 million compared to 2004, but decreased as a percentage of total revenue from 35.9% to 34.6%. These costs are directly related to the number of hotel guests and should improve as a percentage of total revenue as rates increase.
Other property operating costs, which consist of general and administrative costs, marketing costs, repairs and maintenance, utilities expense, and other costs, increased $29 million compared to 2004, and increased as a percentage of total revenue from 29.0% to 29.1%. The slight increase as a percentage of total revenue was entirely related to increased utility expenses, and other costs remained constant or decreased as a percent of total revenue.
Management and franchise fees increased $4 million compared to 2004 and remained essentially the same as a percentage of total revenue.
Taxes, insurance and lease expense increased $13 million and increased as a percentage of total revenue from 9.8% to 10.1%. The increase as a percentage of total revenue was from property tax expense, percentage lease expense and general liability insurance. Property tax expenses increased in 2005 largely because of credits for prior year tax appeals that were recorded in 2004. Percentage lease expense is computed as a percentage of hotel revenues in excess of a base rent. Therefore, as revenues increase, percentage rent expense increases at a faster rate. General liability insurance reflects the nationwide trend of increases in rates.
Corporate expenses increased by $2 million compared to 2004 and remained essentially flat as a percentage of total revenue.
Depreciation expense increased by $7 million compared to 2004. The increase in depreciation expense reflects the large capital expenditures spent in 2004 and 2005.
38
Net interest expense decreased by $15 million in 2005 compared to 2004. The principal reason for the reduction in interest expense is attributed to reduction in average debt outstanding during 2005. Our average outstanding debt decreased by $178 million in 2005 compared to 2004. During 2004 we retired $775 million of senior notes and issued $524 million of senior notes and mortgage debt. In 2005, we further reduced our outstanding debt by $92 million.
In 2005, we recorded impairment charges, under the provisions of SFAS 144, of $266.8 million, $263.1 million of which was included in continuing operations at December 31, 2005 and the remainder was included in discontinued operations. The 2005 charges primarily related to our decision to designate as non-strategic and sell an additional 28 hotels, in connection with the negotiation of the amendment to our IHG management agreements. We also recorded impairment charges with respect to 11 hotels previously designated as non-strategic principally because of revised estimates of fair value.
In 2005, we incurred hurricane losses of $6 million compared to hurricane losses of $2 million incurred in 2004. The hurricane losses for both years represent our insurance deductibles and our best estimates of direct expenses related to these losses. In addition, associated with the 2005 hurricane losses, we anticipate approximately $5 million of business interruption proceeds to be collected and recorded to income in 2006.
During 2005, we incurred expenses of $15 million related to the early retirement of debt compared to $50 million in 2004. The early extinguishment of debt charges in 2005 related principally to secured debt that was retired on hotels that we have designated as non-strategic. The 2004 early retirement related principally to the early retirement of senior notes paying 10% interest.
Equity in income from unconsolidated entities was $10 million in 2005 compared to $17 million in 2004. Included in 2004 was an $11 million gain related to the sale of a residential condominium development in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Net income from unconsolidated ventures owning hotels increased in 2005 principally related to improvements in RevPAR.
Minority interest increased by $19 million in 2005 compared to 2004, principally resulting from FelCor LP’s minority interest in the impairment loss in 2005.
Discontinued operations provided net income of $11 million in 2005 compared to a loss of $19 million in 2004. Included in the 2004 loss in discontinued operations is a $35 million impairment loss. Included in discontinued operations are the results of operations of the 19 hotels disposed in 2005.
Preferred dividends increased by $4 million in 2005 compared to 2004. The principal reasons for this increase are attributed to the issuance of $160 million of Series A preferred stock in 2004 and the first full year of dividends in 2005.
In accordance with the Emerging Issues Task Force Topic D-42, “The Effect on the Calculation of Earnings per Share for the Redemption or Induced Conversion of Preferred Stock,” we have subtracted $7 million of the issuance costs of our redeemed Series B preferred stock from net income to determine net loss applicable to common stockholders for the calculation of net loss per share.
Comparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2004 and 2003
For the year ended December 31, 2004, we recorded a loss applicable to common stockholders of $135 million, compared to a loss in 2003 of $337 million. During 2004, our hotel operating revenue from continuing operations increased by $66 million, reflecting the 5% increase in RevPAR for the year. This RevPAR improvement came on the heels of an unprecedented three year decline in our RevPAR, which has resulted in hotel revenues remaining well below historical levels. Also contributing to the current year loss were: $50 million of net costs associated with the early retirement of $775 million in senior notes; $38 million of impairment charges on our hotels; a $5 million charge associated with the early termination of a hotel lease; $2 million of hurricane losses sustained in the third quarter at 13 of our hotels; and a gain of $12 million from the development and sale of the 251-unit Margate condominium tower at the Kingston Plantation in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
39
Our revenues from continuing operations for 2004 were $1.1 billion, which reflected a 6% increase, over 2003. The increase in revenues principally resulted from the 5% increase in hotel RevPAR. Our hotel portfolio occupancy increased by 3.1% over the prior year and its ADR increased by 1.7%. We attribute the increase in RevPAR to the general firming of the U.S. economy resulting in increased business travel, from which we derive a significant portion of out hotel business. Business travelers generally pay a higher room rate than other types of hotel guests and, as business travel increases, we are able to accept smaller amounts of lower room rate business.
Also contributing to the increase in revenues for 2004 was the acquisition in March 2004 of the Holiday Inn in Santa Monica, California, which contributed $5.4 million of our consolidated revenues in 2004.
The Hotel EBITDA margin of our hotels included in continuing operations at December 31, 2004, was 24.1% compared to 23.7% in 2003. The slight increase in Hotel EBITDA margin is attributed primarily to decreases in property tax and insurance expenses, which were largely offset by increased labor related costs. Property tax expense decreased in 2004, compared to 2003, largely from reductions in assessed values and resolution of prior years’ property tax appeals. The reduction in insurance expense, compared to the prior year, reflects the softening in the property insurance markets and reductions in general liability losses.
Our interest expense included in continuing operations decreased by 10%, to $148 million, as compared to 2003. The reduction in interest expense is related to a $270 million reduction in outstanding debt and a reduction in our weighted average interest rate by 23 basis points, compared to 2003. The change in debt outstanding and the reduction in average interest rate resulted principally from the following capital transactions:
| • | | We completed the early retirement of $775 million in senior notes: |
| o | | $600 million of senior notes maturing in 2008 that bore interest at 10%; and |
|
| o | | $175 million of senior notes maturing in October 2004; |
| • | | We issued $290 million of floating rate senior notes; |
|
| • | | We issued $234 million in mortgage debt; and |
|
| • | | We issued $160 million of convertible preferred stock. |
In 2004, we recorded impairment charges, under the provisions of SFAS 144, of $38 million, $4 million of which is included in continuing operations and the remainder is included in discontinued operations. The 2004 charges related to 17 hotels. With respect to one hotel, we entered into an option in the third quarter 2004 that would permit the option holder to purchase the hotel for substantially less than its carrying value. The remaining hotels either had revised estimates of fair value or reduced estimated holding periods.
During 2004, we completed the early retirement of $775 million of senior notes. Associated with this early retirement, we recorded a charge-off of deferred financing costs of $7 million, a loss on early retirement of debt (representing the premium paid at retirement) of $44 million, and we had a gain of $1 million related to the termination of an interest rate swap on a portion of these notes.
Equity in income from unconsolidated entities increased $15 million compared to 2003. The principal component of this increase was our portion of the gain on the development and sale of the Margate condominium tower at the Kingston Plantation in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, by an unconsolidated entity in which we owned a 50% interest.
Included in the loss from discontinued operations are the results of operations of the 19 hotels disposed in 2005 and the 18 hotels disposed in 2004.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We refer in this annual report on Form 10-K to certain “non-GAAP financial measures.” These measures, including FFO, EBITDA, Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin, are measures of our financial performance that are not calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. The following tables reconcile each of these non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measure. Immediately following the reconciliations, we include a discussion of why we believe these measures are useful supplemental measures of our performance and of the limitations upon such measures.

Substantially all of our non-current assets consist of real estate. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminish predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, most industry investors consider supplemental measures of performance, which are not measures of operating performance under GAAP, to be helpful in evaluating a real estate company’s operations. These supplemental measures, including FFO, EBITDA, Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin, are not measures of operating performance under GAAP. However, we consider these non-GAAP measures to be supplemental measures of a REIT’s performance and should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income as a measure of our operating performance.
FFO and EBITDA
The White Paper on Funds From Operations approved by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, defines FFO as net income or loss (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by NAREIT. This may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition, or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do.
EBITDA is a commonly used measure of performance in many industries. We define EBITDA as net income or loss (computed in accordance with GAAP) plus interest expenses, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect EBITDA on the same basis.
Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA Margin
Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin are commonly used measures of performance in the hotel industry and give investors a more complete understanding of the operating results over which our individual hotels and operating managers have direct control. We believe that Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin is useful to investors by providing greater transparency with respect to two significant measures used by us in our financial and operational decision-making. Additionally, using these measures facilitates comparisons with other hotel REITs and hotel owners. We present Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin by eliminating corporate-level expenses, depreciation and expenses related to our capital structure. We eliminate corporate-level costs and expenses because we believe property-level results provide investors with supplemental information into the ongoing operational performance of our hotels and the effectiveness of management in running our business on a property-level basis. We eliminate depreciation and amortization because, even though depreciation and amortization are property-level expenses, we do not believe that these non-cash expenses, which are based on historical cost accounting for real estate assets, and implicitly assume that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time, accurately reflect an adjustment in the value of our
45
assets. To enhance the comparability of our hotel-level operating results with other hotel REITs and hotel owners, we are now disclosing Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin rather than the hotel operating profit and hotel operating margin previously disclosed. The purpose of the change is to remove any distortion created by unconsolidated entities and to reflect hotel-level operations as if they were fully consolidated. To reflect this, we eliminate consolidated percentage rent paid to unconsolidated entities, which is effectively eliminated by minority interest expense and equity in income from unconsolidated subsidiaries, and include the cost of unconsolidated taxes, insurance and lease expense, to reflect the entire operating costs applicable to our hotels.
Use and Limitations of Non-GAAP Measures
Our management and Board of Directors use FFO, EBITDA, Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin to evaluate the performance of our hotels and to facilitate comparisons between us and other lodging REITs, hotel owners who are not REITs and other capital intensive companies. We use Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin in evaluating hotel-level performance and the operating efficiency of our hotel managers.
The use of these non-GAAP financial measures has certain limitations. FFO, EBITDA, Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin, as presented by us, may not be comparable to FFO, EBITDA, Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin as calculated by other real estate companies. These measures do not reflect certain expenses that we incurred and will incur, such as depreciation, interest and capital expenditures. Management compensates for these limitations by separately considering the impact of these excluded items to the extent they are material to operating decisions or assessments of our operating performance. Our reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP financial measures, and our consolidated statements of operations and cash flows, include interest expense, capital expenditures, and other excluded items, all of which should be considered when evaluating our performance, as well as the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures.
These non-GAAP financial measures are used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. They should not be considered as alternatives to operating profit, cash flow from operations, or any other operating performance measure prescribed by GAAP. Neither should FFO, FFO per share or EBITDA be considered as measures of our liquidity or indicative of funds available for our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions or service our debt. FFO per share does not measure, and should not be used as a measure of, amounts that accrue directly to the benefit of stockholders. FFO, EBITDA, Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin reflect additional ways of viewing our operations that we believe, when viewed with our GAAP results and the reconciliations to the corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business than could be obtained absent this disclosure. Management strongly encourages investors to review our financial information in its entirety and not to rely on a single financial measure.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal source of cash to meet our cash requirements, including distributions to stockholders and repayments of indebtedness, is from the results of operations of our hotels. For the year ended December 31, 2005, net cash flow provided by operating activities, consisting primarily of hotel operations, was $111 million. At December 31, 2005, we had cash on hand of $95 million. Included in cash on hand was $31 million held under our hotel management agreements to meet our hotel minimum working capital requirements.
We currently expect that our cash flow provided by operating activities for 2006 will be approximately $160 million to $167 million. These cash flow forecasts assume a RevPAR increase of 7% to 9%, and Hotel EBITDA margin increases of at least 100 basis points. Our current operating plan contemplates that we will make preferred dividend payments of $39 million, capital expenditures of approximately $175 to $200 million, $15 million in normal recurring principal payments, and that we will defer a debt maturity of $117 million (which we currently anticipate extending in accordance with its terms), leaving a cash flow shortfall of approximately $62 million to $94 million. We expect the cash necessary to fund this cash flow shortfall and distributions, if any, on our common stock, will come from our cash balances or the proceeds from the sale of hotels. We anticipate that our board of directors will determine the amount of preferred and common dividends, if any, for each quarterly period, based upon the actual operating results of that quarter, economic conditions, other operating trends, our financial condition and capital requirements, as well as the minimum REIT distribution requirements.

During 2005, our hotels in New Orleans and surrounding markets, such as Atlanta, Georgia; Baton Rouge, Louisiana; Houston, San Antonio, and Dallas, Texas, benefited from the increase in demand for hotel rooms, resulting from the displacement of New Orleans residents, and from the influx of relief and construction workers. We believe that the increased demand in most of these markets will continue into 2006, but we are unable to predict how long.
We expect cash flow from operations to be sufficient to cover the payment of a dividend on our common stock, our full preferred stock dividends as well as the funding of maintenance capital expenditures of five percent of annual hotel revenues for the foreseeable future.
Events, including the threat of additional terrorist attacks, U.S. military involvement in the Middle East and the bankruptcy of several major corporations, had an adverse impact on the capital markets in prior years. Similar events, such as new terrorist attacks or additional bankruptcies, could further adversely affect the availability and cost of capital for our business. In addition, any slowdown of the overall economy and of the lodging industry could adversely affect our operating cash flow and the availability and cost of capital for our business.
As a consequence of the recent economic recovery, its impact on the travel and lodging industries, and our lower secured debt levels, Standard & Poor’s raised their ratings on our senior unsecured debt in 2006, from B- to B. Should Standard & Poor’s or Moody’s increase their ratings on our senior unsecured debt to BB- or Ba3, respectively, our interest rates on $300 million of our senior unsecured debt will drop by 50 basis points, reducing our interest expense by $1.5 million annually.
We are subject to the risks of fluctuating hotel operating margins at our hotels, including but not limited to increases in wage and benefit costs, repair and maintenance expenses, utilities, insurance, and other operating expenses that can fluctuate disproportionately to revenues. These operating expenses are difficult to predict and control, resulting in an increased risk of volatility in our results of operations. The recent economic slowdown that began in 2001, led to a sharp drop in occupancy and ADR resulting in declines in RevPAR and in the erosion in our Hotel EBITDA margins through 2003. Our Hotel EBITDA margins from continuing operations increased to 25.2% in 2005. However, if our hotel RevPAR and/or operating margins worsen, they could have a material adverse effect on our operations, earnings and cash flow.
In the fourth quarter of 2005, we retired $258 million of secured debt related to 25 hotels and entered into a $225 million unsecured term loan. In connection with the early retirement of $258 million of secured debt, we recorded $15 million expense in the fourth quarter of 2005. The $225 million term loan was subsequently retired in January 2006 with proceeds from hotel sales, cash on hand and $45 million drawn on our $125 million line of credit established in January 2006. Associated with the early retirement of the $225 million term loan in January 2006, we will record $1 million write-off of loan costs in the first quarter of 2006.
Our line of credit established in January 2006, has certain restrictive covenants, including a leverage ratio, fixed charge coverage ratio, unencumbered leverage ratio and a maximum payout ratio. In addition to financial covenants, our line of credit includes certain other affirmative and negative covenants, including restrictions on our ability to create or acquire wholly-owned subsidiaries; restrictions on the operation/ownership of our hotels; limitations on our ability to lease property or guarantee leases of other persons; limitations on our ability to make restricted payments (such as distributions on common and preferred stock, share repurchases and certain investments); limitations on our ability to merge or consolidate with other persons, to issue stock of our subsidiaries and to sell all or substantially all of our assets; restrictions on our ability to make investments in condominium developments; limitations on our ability to change the nature of our business and limitations on our ability to modify certain instruments, to create liens, to enter into transactions with affiliates and limitations on our ability to enter into joint ventures. At the date of this filing, we were in compliance with all of these covenants.
If operating results fall significantly below our current expectations, as outlined in our current guidance, we may not be able to satisfy the financial covenant requirements in our current line of credit and we may be unable to borrow under it.

During 2005, we issued 6.8 million depositary shares representing our 8% Series C Preferred Stock, with gross proceeds of $169 million. The proceeds were used to redeem all of the shares outstanding of our 9% Series B Preferred Stock. As a result of this redemption, we recorded a reduction in net income applicable to common stockholders of $7 million for the original issuance cost of the Series B preferred stock which was redeemed.
In 2005, eight limited service hotels owned by a consolidated joint venture were surrendered to their non-recourse mortgage holders in exchange for extinguishment of approximately $49 million of debt.
In 2005, we started construction on the 184 unit Royale Palms condominium development in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. This project is more than 90% pre-sold and is expected to be completed in the summer of 2007. In conjunction with this development, we entered into a $70 million recourse construction loan facility. At December 31, 2005, we had spent $13 million on this project and had drawn $9 million on the construction loan. The interest on this construction facility is currently based on LIBOR plus 225 basis points and may be reduced to LIBOR plus 200 basis points when the project is 55% complete upon satisfaction of certain other requirements.
At December 31, 2005, we had aggregate mortgage indebtedness of $738 million that was secured by 46 of our consolidated hotels with an aggregate book value of $1.2 billion and our Royale Palms condominium development. Substantially all of this debt is recourse solely to the specific assets securing the debt, except in the case of fraud, misapplication of funds and other customary recourse provisions. Loans secured by 10 hotels provide for lock-box arrangements.
With respect to loans secured by 10 hotels, the owner is permitted to retain 115% of budgeted hotel operating expenses before the remaining revenues would become subject to a similar lock-box arrangement if a specified debt service coverage ratio was not met. The mortgage loans secured by eight of these 10 hotels also provide that, so long as the debt service coverage ratios remain below a second, even lower minimum level, the lender may retain any excess cash (after deduction for the 115% of budgeted operating expenses, debt service, tax, insurance and other reserve requirements) and, if the debt service coverage ratio remains below this lower minimum level for 12 consecutive months, apply any accumulated excess cash to the prepayment of the principal amount of the debt. If the debt service coverage ratio exceeds the lower minimum level for three consecutive months, any then accumulated excess cash will be returned to the owner. Eight of these 10 hotels, which accounted for 6% of our total revenues in 2005, are currently below the applicable debt service coverage ratio and are subject to the lock-box provisions. None of the hotels are currently below the second, even lower minimum debt service coverage ratio that would permit the lender to retain excess cash after deduction for the 115% of budgeted operating expenses, debt service, tax, insurance and other reserve requirements.
Most of our mortgage debt is non-recourse to us and contains provisions allowing for the substitution of collateral upon satisfaction of certain conditions. Most of our mortgage debt is prepayable, subject to various prepayment penalties, yield maintenance or defeasance obligations.
The breach of any of the covenants and limitations under our line of credit could result in the acceleration of amounts outstanding. Our failure to satisfy any accelerated indebtedness, if in the amount of $10 million or more, could result in the acceleration of most of our other unsecured recourse indebtedness. We may not be able to refinance or repay our debt in full under those circumstances
Our other borrowings contain affirmative and negative covenants that are generally equal to or less restrictive than our line of credit.
Our publicly-traded senior unsecured notes require that we satisfy total leverage, secured leverage and interest coverage tests in order to: incur additional indebtedness except to refinance maturing debt with replacement debt, as defined under our indentures; pay dividends in excess of the minimum dividend required to meet the REIT qualification test; repurchase capital stock; or merge. As of the date of this filing, we have satisfied all such tests. Under the terms of certain of our indentures, we are prohibited from repurchasing any of our capital stock, whether common or preferred, subject to certain exceptions, so long as our debt-to-EBITDA ratio, as defined in the indentures, exceeds 4.85 to 1. Debt, as defined in the indentures, approximates our consolidated debt. EBITDA is defined in the indentures as consolidated GAAP net income, adjusted for
48
minority interest in FelCor LP, actual cash distributions by unconsolidated entities, gains or losses from asset sales, dividends on preferred stock and extraordinary gains and losses (as defined at the date of the indentures), plus interest expense, income taxes, depreciation expense, amortization expense and other non-cash items. Although our current debt-to-EDITDA ratio is below 4.85 to 1, a decline in our EBITDA, as a result of asset sales or adverse economic developments, or an increase in our debt, could make us subject to this limitation.
If actual operating results fall significantly below our current expectations, as reflected in our current public guidance, or if interest rates increase substantially above expected levels, we may be unable to continue to satisfy the incurrence test under the indentures governing our senior unsecured notes. In such an event, we may be prohibited from, among other things, incurring any additional indebtedness, except under certain specific exceptions, or paying dividends on our preferred or common stock, except to the extent necessary to satisfy the REIT qualification requirement that we distribute currently at least 90% of our taxable income.
We currently anticipate that we will meet our financial covenant and incurrence tests under the RevPAR guidance provided by us at our fourth quarter earnings conference call on February 7, 2006. For the first quarter of 2006, we currently anticipate that our portfolio RevPAR will be 10% to 12% above the comparable period of the prior year. The RevPAR increase in 2006, compared to the same periods in 2005, was approximately 18% for January 2006 and 13% for February 2006. We currently anticipate that full year 2006 hotel portfolio RevPAR will increase approximately 7% to 9%. For 2006, we expect to make capital expenditures of approximately $175 to $200 million. We estimate that our income for 2006 will be in the range of $23 to $30 million. FFO for the year 2006 is anticipated to be within the range of $113 to $120 million, and EBITDA is expected to be within the range of $282 to $289 million. No asset sales, except for the eight hotels sold in January, or capital transactions are assumed in the preparation of our guidance.

(a) | | Our long-term debt consists of both secured and unsecured debt and includes both principal and interest. Interest expense for variable rate debt was calculated using the interest rate at December 31, 2005. |
|
(b) | | As a part of the amendment to the IHG management agreements, we have agreed to spend, by June 30, 2007, approximately $51 million with regard to special capital plans on 11 hotels. We are to agree upon special capital plans to be completed by July 2008 with regard to four hotels and January 2011 with regard to two hotels. |
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
At December 31, 2005, we had unconsolidated 50% investments in ventures that own an aggregate of 19 hotels (referred to as hotel joint ventures), and we had unconsolidated 50% investments in ventures that operate four of those 19 hotels (referred to as operating joint ventures). We own 100% of the lessees operating two hotels owned by the hotel joint ventures, 51% of the lessees operating 12 hotels owned by the hotel joint ventures and one hotel joint venture is operated without a lease. We also owned a 50% interest in entities that provide condominium management services and develop condominiums in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. None of our directors, officers or employees owns any interest in any of these joint ventures or entities. The hotel joint ventures had $204 million of non-recourse mortgage debt relating to the 19 hotels. This debt is not reflected as a liability on our consolidated balance sheet.
Our liability with regard to non-recourse debt and the liability of our subsidiaries that are members or partners in joint ventures are generally limited to the guarantee of the borrowing entity’s obligations to pay for the lender’s losses caused by misconduct, fraud or misappropriation of funds by the venture and other typical exceptions from the non-recourse provisions in the mortgages, such as for environmental liabilities.
We have recorded equity in income (loss) of unconsolidated entities of $10 million; $17 million, including a gain of $11 million related to the development and sale of condominiums; and $2 million for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively, and received distributions of $8 million (of which $1 million was provided from operations) $23 million (of which $12 million was provided by operations) and $9 million for the years 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The principal source of income for our hotel joint ventures is percentage lease revenue from the operating lessees. We own 51% of the operating lessees for 12 of the hotel joint ventures and 100% of the operating lessee for one of the hotel joint ventures. The 100% owned operating lessee incurred aggregate net losses, which were included in our consolidated statements of operations, of $2 million during the past three years.
Capital expenditures on the hotels owned by our hotel joint ventures are generally paid from their capital reserve account, which is funded from the income from operations of these ventures. However, if a venture has insufficient cash flow to meet operating expenses or make necessary capital improvements, the venture may make a capital call upon the venture members or partners to fund such necessary improvements. It is possible that, in the event of a capital call, the other joint venture member or partner may be unwilling or unable to make the necessary capital contributions. Under such circumstances, we may elect to make the other party’s contribution as a loan to the venture or as an additional capital contribution by us. Under certain circumstances, a capital contribution by us may increase our equity investment to greater than 50% and may require that we consolidate the venture, including all of its assets and liabilities, into our consolidated financial statements.
51
With respect to those ventures that are partnerships, any of our subsidiaries that serve as a general partner will be liable for all of the recourse obligations of the venture, to the extent that the venture does not have sufficient assets or insurance to satisfy the obligations. In addition, the hotels owned by these ventures could perform below expectations and result in the insolvency of the ventures and the acceleration of their debts, unless the members or partners provide additional capital. In some ventures, the members or partners may be required to make additional capital contributions or have their interest in the venture be reduced or offset for the benefit of any party making the required investment on their behalf. We may be faced with the choice of losing our investment in a venture or investing additional capital under circumstances that do not assure a return on that investment.
Inflation
Operators of hotels, in general, possess the ability to adjust room rates daily to reflect the effects of inflation. Competitive pressures may, however, require us to reduce room rates in the near term and may limit our ability to raise room rates in the future. We are also subject to the risk that inflation will cause increases in hotel operating expenses disproportionately to revenues.
Seasonality
The lodging business is seasonal in nature. Generally, hotel revenues are greater in the second and third calendar quarters than in the first and fourth calendar quarters, although this may not be true for hotels in major tourist destinations. Revenues for hotels in tourist areas generally are substantially greater during tourist season than other times of the year. Seasonal variations in revenue at our hotels can be expected to cause quarterly fluctuations in our revenues. Quarterly earnings also may be adversely affected by events beyond our control, such as extreme weather conditions, economic factors and other considerations affecting travel. To the extent that cash flow from operations is insufficient during any quarter, due to temporary or seasonal fluctuations in revenues, we may utilize cash on hand or borrowings to satisfy our obligations or make distributions to our equity holders.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.
On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to bad debts, the carrying value of investments in hotels, litigation, and other contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
We believe the following critical accounting policies affect the most significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.
| • | | We are required by GAAP to record an impairment charge when we believe that an investment in one or more of our hotels has been impaired, such that future undiscounted cash flows would not recover the book basis, or net book value, of the investment. We test for impairment when certain events occur, including one or more of the following: projected cash flows are significantly less than recent historical cash flows; significant changes in legal factors or actions by a regulator that could affect the value of our hotels; events that could cause changes or uncertainty in travel patterns; and a current expectation that, more likely than not, a hotel will be sold or otherwise disposed of significantly before the end of its previously estimated useful |
52
| | | life. In 2005 we identified 28 hotels, in 2004 we identified two hotels, in 2003 we identified 18 hotels and in 2002 we identified 33 hotels, that we expect to sell. The shorter probable holding periods related to our decision to sell these hotels was the primary factor that led to impairment charges on these hotels. As we sell these hotels, we may recognize additional losses or gains on sale. In the evaluation of impairment of our hotel assets, and in establishing the impairment charge, we made many assumptions and estimates on a hotel by hotel basis, which included the following: |
| o | | Annual cash flow growth rates for revenues and expenses; |
|
| o | | Holding periods; |
|
| o | | Expected remaining useful lives of assets; |
|
| o | | Estimates in fair values taking into consideration future cash flows, capitalization rates, discount rates and comparable selling prices; and |
|
| o | | Future capital expenditures. |
| | | Changes in these estimates, future adverse changes in market conditions or poor operating results of underlying hotels could result in losses or an inability to recover the carrying value of the hotels that may not be reflected in the hotel’s current carrying value, thereby requiring additional impairment charges in the future. |
|
| • | | We make estimates with respect to contingent liabilities for losses covered by insurance in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard 5, Accounting for Contingencies. We record liabilities for self insured losses under our insurance programs when it becomes probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred at the date of our financial statements and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. In 2002, we initially became self-insured for the first $250,000, per occurrence, of our general liability claims with regard to 68 of our hotels. At December 31, 2005, we had 71 of our hotels participating in this program. We review the adequacy of our reserves for our self-insured claims on a regular basis. Our reserves are intended to cover the estimated ultimate uninsured liability for losses with respect to reported and unreported claims incurred as of the end of each accounting period. These reserves represent estimates at a given accounting date, generally utilizing projections based on claims, historical settlement of claims and estimates of future costs to settle claims. Estimates are also required since there may be reporting lags between the occurrence of the insured event and the time it is actually reported. Because establishment of insurance reserves is an inherently uncertain process involving estimates, currently established reserves may not be sufficient. If our insurance reserves of $6 million, at December 31, 2005, for general liability losses are insufficient, we will record an additional expense in future periods. Property and catastrophic losses are event-driven losses and, as such, until a loss occurs and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated, no liability is recorded. We had recorded no contingent liabilities with regard to property or catastrophic losses at December 31, 2005. |
|
| • | | SFAS 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” as amended by SFAS 138, “Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities,” establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments. In accordance with these pronouncements, all of our interest rate swap agreements outstanding at December 31, 2005, were designated as cash flow hedges because they are hedging our exposure to the changes in interest payments on our floating rate debt. These instruments are adjusted to our estimate of their fair market value through accumulated other comprehensive income within stockholders’ equity. We estimate the fair value of our interest rate swaps and fixed rate debt through the use of a third party valuation. We may use other methods and assumptions to validate the fair market value. At December 31, 2005, our estimate of the fair market value of the interest rate swaps was approximately $2 million and represents the amount that we estimate we would currently receive upon termination of these instruments, based on current market rates and reasonable assumptions about relevant future market conditions. |
|
| • | | Our Taxable REIT Subsidiaries, or TRSs, have cumulative potential future tax deductions totaling $419 million. The net deferred income tax asset associated with these potential future tax deductions was $173 million. We have recorded a valuation allowance of $133 million |
53
| | | deferred tax asset related to our TRSs, because of the uncertainty of realizing the benefit of the deferred tax asset. SFAS 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” establishes financial accounting and reporting standards for the effect of income taxes. The objectives of accounting for income taxes are to recognize the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in an entity’s financial statements or tax returns. In accordance with SFAS 109, we have considered future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for a valuation allowance. In the event we were to determine that we would be able to realize all or a portion of our deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would increase operating income in the period such determination was made. |
Recent Accounting Announcements
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued SFAS No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment”, which is a revision of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”. SFAS No. 123(R) supersedes Accounting Principals Board, or APB, Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees” and amends SFAS No. 95, “Statement of Cash Flows”. Generally, the approach in SFAS No. 123(R) is similar to the approach described in SFAS No. 123. However, SFAS No. 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. The new standard will be effective in the first annual reporting period beginning after June 15, 2005. We expect to adopt this standard under the modified prospective application. We do not expect adoption of this standard to have a material effect on us.
In March 2005, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 47, or FIN 47, “Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143.” FIN 47 refers to a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the entity. An entity is required to recognize a liability for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation if the fair value of the liability can be reasonably estimated. The fair value of a liability for the conditional asset retirement obligation should be recognized when incurred, generally upon acquisition, construction, or development and through the normal operation of the asset. This interpretation is effective no later than the end of fiscal years ending after December 31, 2005. Adoption did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
Disclosure Regarding Forward Looking Statements
This Annual Report on Form 10-K and the documents incorporated by reference in this Annual Report on Form 10-K include forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks”, or other variations of these terms (including their use in the negative), or by discussions of strategies, plans or intentions. A number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated by these forward-looking statements. Among these factors are:
| • | | general economic and lodging industry conditions, including the anticipated continuation of the current recovery in the economy, the realization of anticipated job growth, the impact of the United States’ military involvement in the Middle East and elsewhere, future acts of terrorism, the threat or outbreak of a pandemic disease affecting the travel industry, the impact on the travel industry of high fuel costs and increased security precautions, and the impact that the bankruptcy of additional major air carriers may have on our revenues and receivables; |
|
| • | | our overall debt levels and our ability to obtain new financing and service debt; |
|
| • | | our inability to retain earnings; |
|
| • | | our liquidity and capital expenditures; |
|
| • | | our growth strategy and acquisition activities; |
|
| • | | our inability to sell the hotels being marketed for sale at anticipated prices; and |
|
| • | | competitive conditions in the lodging industry. |
54
Certain of these risks and uncertainties are described in greater detail under “Risk Factors” in Item 1A above, or in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
In addition, these forward-looking statements are necessarily dependent upon assumptions and estimates that may prove to be incorrect. Accordingly, while we believe that the plans, intentions and expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that these plans, intentions or expectations will be achieved. The forward-looking statements included in this report, and all subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by the risk factors and cautionary statements discussed in our filings under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect future events or circumstances.
The prospective financial information, related to hotel sale proceeds and guidance, included in this Form 10-K has been prepared by, and is the responsibility of, our management. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP has neither examined nor compiled the accompanying prospective financial information and, accordingly, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP does not express an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect thereto. The PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP report included in this Form 10-K relates to our historical financial information. It does not extend to the prospective financial information and should not be read to do so.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
At December 31, 2005, approximately 70% of our consolidated debt had fixed interest rates. In some cases, market rates of interest are below the rates we are obligated to pay on our fixed-rate debt.
The following tables provide information about our financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest rates, including interest rate swaps and debt obligations. For debt obligations, the tables present scheduled maturities and weighted average interest rates, by maturity dates. For interest rate swaps, the tables present the notional amount and weighted average interest rate, by contractual maturity date. The fair value of our fixed rate debt indicates the estimated principal amount of debt having the same debt service requirements that could have been borrowed at the date presented, at then current market interest rates. The fair value of our fixed to variable interest rate swaps indicates the estimated amount that would have been received or paid by us had the swaps been terminated at the date presented.

Swap contracts, such as described above, contain a credit risk, in that the counterparties may be unable to fulfill the terms of the agreement. We minimize that risk by evaluating the creditworthiness of our counterparties, who are limited to major banks and financial institutions, and we do not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties. The Standard & Poor’s credit ratings for each of the financial institutions that are counterparties to the interest rate swap agreements are AA-.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) during the fourth quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on our assessment, we have concluded that, as of December 31, 2005, our internal control over financial reporting is effective, based on those criteria.
Our management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm as stated in their report, which appears on page F-2 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of FelCor Lodging Trust Incorporated:
We have completed integrated audits of FelCor Lodging Trust Incorporated’s 2005 and 2004 consolidated financial statements and of its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, and an audit of its 2003 consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Our opinions, based on our audits, are presented below.
Consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the accompanying index present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of FelCor Lodging Trust Incorporated and its subsidiaries, or the Company, at December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2005 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule listed in the accompanying indexpresents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements. These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit of financial statements includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Internal control over financial reporting
Also, in our opinion, management’s assessment, included in Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting appearing in Item 9A, that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005 based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on those criteria. Furthermore, in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the COSO. The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express opinions on management’s assessment and on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit of internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. An audit of internal control over financial reporting includes obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management’s assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we consider necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinions.
F-2
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

1. Organization
In 1994, FelCor Lodging Trust Incorporated, or FelCor, went public as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, with six hotels and a market capitalization of $120 million. We are now one of the nation’s largest lodging REITs based on total assets and number of hotels owned, holding ownership interests in 130 hotels at December 31, 2005. We are the owner of the largest number of Embassy Suites Hotels® and independently owned Doubletree®-branded hotels in North America. Our portfolio also includes 66 upscale all-suite hotels.
FelCor is the sole general partner of, and the owner of an approximately 95% limited partnership interest in, FelCor Lodging Limited Partnership, or FelCor LP. All of our operations are conducted solely through FelCor LP, or its subsidiaries.
At December 31, 2005, we had ownership interests in 130 hotels. We owned a 100% real estate interest in 101 hotels, a 90% or greater interest in entities owning seven hotels, a 75% interest in an entity owning one hotel, a 60% interest in an entity owning two hotels, and 50% interests in unconsolidated entities that own 19 hotels. We consolidated the operating revenues and expenses with regard to 125 of these hotels as a result of our ownership interests in the operating lessees of these hotels. At December 31, 2005, we owned 100% of the operating lessees with regard to 113 hotels and 51% of the operating lessees with regard to 12 hotels. The operating revenues and expenses of the remaining five hotels were unconsolidated, four hotels were operated by 50% owned lessees and one hotel, in which we had a 50% ownership interest, was operated without a lease.
At December 31, 2005, we had 60,209,499 shares of FelCor common stock and 2,762,540 units of FelCor LP limited partnership interest outstanding.
The following table reflects the distribution, by brand, of the 125 hotels included in our consolidated hotel continuing operations at December 31, 2005:

Brand | | Hotels | | Rooms |
Embassy Suites Hotels | | | 54 | | | | 13,653 | |

Approximately 55% of our hotel room revenues were generated from hotels in these four states during 2005.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation— Our accompanying consolidated financial statements include the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of all majority-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. Investments in unconsolidated entities (consisting entirely of 50 percent owned ventures) are accounted for by the equity method.
Use of Estimates— The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Investment in Hotels— Our hotels are stated at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of 40 years for buildings, 15 to 20 years for improvements and three to seven years for furniture, fixtures, and equipment.
We periodically review the carrying value of each of our hotels to determine if circumstances exist indicating an impairment in the carrying value of the investment in the hotel or that depreciation periods should be modified. If facts or circumstances support the possibility of impairment, we prepare a projection of the undiscounted future cash flows over the shorter of the hotel’s estimated useful life or the expected hold period, without interest charges, of the specific hotel and determine if the investment in such hotel is recoverable based on the undiscounted future cash flows. If impairment is indicated, we make an adjustment to reduce carrying value of the hotel to its then fair value. We use recent operating results and current market information to arrive at our estimates of fair value.
Maintenance and repairs are expensed and major renewals and improvements are capitalized. Upon the sale or disposition of a fixed asset, the asset and related accumulated depreciation are removed from our accounts and the related gain or loss is included in operations.
Acquisition of Hotels— Our hotel acquisitions consist almost exclusively of land, building, furniture, fixtures and equipment, and inventory. We allocate the purchase price among these asset classes based upon their respective values determined in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, or SFAS, 141, “Business Combinations.” When we acquire properties, we acquire them for use. The only intangible assets typically acquired consist of miscellaneous operating agreements all of which are of short duration and at market rates. We do not generally acquire any significant in-place leases or other intangible assets (e.g., management agreements, franchise agreements or trademarks) when we acquire hotels. In conjunction with the acquisition of a hotel, we typically enter into new franchise and management agreements with the selected brand owner and manager.
Investment in Unconsolidated Entities— We own a 50% interest in various real estate ventures in which the partners or members jointly make all material decisions concerning the business affairs and operations. Additionally, we also own a preferred equity interest in one of these real estate ventures. Because we do not control these entities, we carry our investment in unconsolidated entities at cost, plus our equity in net earnings or losses, less distributions received since the date of acquisition and any adjustment for impairment. Our equity in net earnings or losses is adjusted for the straight-line depreciation, over the lower of 40 years or the remaining life of the venture, of the difference between our cost and our proportionate share of the underlying net assets at the date of acquisition. We periodically review our investment in unconsolidated entities for other than temporary declines in market value. Any decline that is not expected to be recovered in the next 12 months is considered other than temporary and an impairment is recorded as a reduction in the carrying value of the investment. Estimated fair values are based on our projections of cash flows and market capitalization rates.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies — (continued)
Hotels Held for Sale —We consider each individual hotel to be an identifiable component of our business. In accordance with SFAS 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” we do not consider hotels as “held for sale” until it is probable that the sale will be completed within one year. Once a hotel is “held for sale” the operations related to the hotel are included in discontinued operations. We consider a hotel as “held for sale” once we have executed a contract for sale, allowed the buyer to complete their due diligence review, and received a substantial non-refundable deposit. Until a buyer has completed its due diligence review of the asset, necessary approvals have been received and substantive conditions to the buyer’s obligation to perform have been satisfied, we do not consider a sale to be probable.
We do not depreciate hotel assets so long as they are classified as “held for sale.” Upon designation of a hotel as being “held for sale,” and quarterly thereafter, we review the carrying value of the hotel and, as appropriate, adjust its carrying value to the lesser of depreciated cost or fair value, less cost to sell, in accordance with SFAS 144. Any such adjustment in the carrying value of a hotel classified as “held for sale” is reflected in discontinued operations. We include in discontinued operations the operating results of those hotels that are classified as “held for sale” or that have been sold.
Cash and Cash Equivalents— All highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased are considered to be cash equivalents.
We place cash deposits at major banks. Our bank account balances may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Limits of $100,000; however, management believes the credit risk related to these deposits is minimal.
Restricted Cash—Restricted cash includes reserves for capital expenditures, real estate taxes, and insurance, as well as cash collateral deposits for mortgage debt agreement provisions.
Deferred Expenses— Deferred expenses, consisting primarily of loan costs, are recorded at cost. Amortization is computed using a method that approximates the interest method over the maturity of the related debt.
Other Assets —Other assets consist primarily of hotel operating inventories, prepaid expenses and deposits.
Revenue Recognition— Approximately 99.8% to 99.9% of our revenue is comprised of hotel operating revenues, such as room revenue, food and beverage revenue, and revenue from other hotel operating departments (such as telephone, parking and business centers). These revenues are recorded net of any sales or occupancy taxes collected from our guests. All rebates or discounts are recorded, when allowed, as a reduction in revenue, and there are no material contingent obligations with respect to rebates or discounts offered by us. All revenues are recorded on an accrual basis, as earned. Appropriate allowances are made for doubtful accounts and are recorded as a bad debt expense. The remaining 0.1% to 0.2% of our revenue is from retail space rental revenue and other sources.
We do not have any time-share arrangements and do not sponsor any frequent guest programs for which we would have any contingent liability. We participate in frequent guest programs sponsored by the brand owners of our hotels and we expense the charges associated with those programs (typically consisting of a percentage of the total guest charges incurred by a participating guest), as incurred. When a guest redeems accumulated frequent guest points at one of our hotels, the hotel bills the sponsor for the services provided in redemption of such points and records revenue in the amount of the charges billed to the sponsor. Associated with the frequent guest programs, we have no loss contingencies or ongoing obligation beyond what is paid to the brand owner at the time of the guest’s stay.

Foreign Currency Translation— Results of operations for our Canadian hotels are maintained in Canadian dollars and translated using the average exchange rates during the period. Assets and liabilities are translated to U.S. dollars using the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Resulting translation adjustments are reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income.
Capitalized Cost— We capitalize interest and certain other costs, such as property taxes, land leases, and property insurance relating to hotels undergoing major renovations and redevelopments. Such costs capitalized in 2005, 2004, and 2003, were $5.8 million, $3.6 million and $2.0 million, respectively.
Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share— We compute basic earnings per share by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. We compute diluted earnings per share by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares and equivalents outstanding. Common stock equivalents represent shares issuable upon exercise of stock options and unvested officers’ restricted stock grants.
For all years presented, our Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock, or Series A preferred stock, if converted to common shares, would be antidilutive; accordingly we do not assume conversion of the Series A preferred stock in the computation of diluted earnings per share. For all years presented, stock options granted are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the average market price of the common stock during each respective year was less than the exercise price of the options.
Stock Compensation¾ We apply Accounting Principles Board, or APB, Opinion 25 and related interpretations in accounting for our stock based compensation plans for stock based compensation issued prior to January 1, 2003. In 1995, SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” was issued, which, if fully adopted by us, would have changed the methods we apply in recognizing the cost of the plans. As permitted under the transition provisions of SFAS 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure,” we began recognizing compensation expense in accordance with SFAS 123 under the prospective method for all new awards issued after December 31, 2002. Had the compensation cost for our stock-based compensation plans been determined in accordance with SFAS 123 prior to January 1, 2003, our net income or loss and net income or loss per common share for the periods presented would approximate the pro forma amounts below (in thousands, except per share data):
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | 2005 | | | 2004 | | | 2003 | |
Loss from continuing operations, as reported | | $ | (262,906 | ) | | $ | (81,534 | ) | | $ | (148,326 | ) |
Add stock based compensation included in the net loss, as reported | | | 2,904 | | | | 2,945 | | | | 2,210 | |
Less stock based compensation expense that would have been included in the determination of net loss if the fair value method had been applied to all awards | | | (2,914 | ) | | | (3,001 | ) | | | (2,355 | ) |

Derivatives¾ We record derivatives in accordance with SFAS 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” as amended by SFAS 138, “Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities.” SFAS 133, as amended, establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments. Specifically, SFAS 133 requires an entity to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet and to measure those instruments at fair value. Additionally, the fair value adjustments will affect either stockholders’ equity or net income, depending on whether the derivative instrument qualifies as a hedge for accounting purposes and the nature of the hedging activity.
Segment Information¾ SFAS 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” requires the disclosure of selected information about operating segments. Based on the guidance provided in the standard, we have determined that our business is conducted in one operating segment.
Distributions and Dividends— We and FelCor LP resumed paying a common dividend with the fourth quarter 2005 payment of $0.15 per share. Additionally, we have paid regular quarterly dividends on our preferred stock in accordance with our preferred stock dividend requirements. In 2003, we announced that, as the result of declines in our portfolio’s average daily rate, which was attributed to the uncertain geopolitical environment and soft business climate, along with the risk of further margin deterioration, we suspended payment of regular common dividends. Our ability to make distributions is dependent on our receipt of quarterly distributions from FelCor LP, and FelCor LP’s ability to make distributions is dependent upon the results of operations of our hotels.
Minority Interests— Minority interests in FelCor LP and other consolidated subsidiaries represent the proportionate share of the equity in FelCor LP and other consolidated subsidiaries not owned by us. We allocate income and loss to minority interest based on the weighted average percentage ownership throughout the year.
Income Taxes— We have elected to be treated as a REIT under Sections 856 to 860 of the Internal Revenue Code. We generally lease our hotels to wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiaries, or TRSs, that are subject to federal and state income taxes. Through these lessees we record room revenue, food and beverage revenue and other revenue related to the operations of our hotels. We account for income taxes in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 109. Under SFAS 109, we account for income taxes using the asset and liability method under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.

3. Investment in Hotels — (continued)
Discussions of hotel dispositions are included in our Discontinued Operations footnote.
We invested $112 million and $96 million in additions and improvements to our consolidated hotels during the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
4. Impairment Charge
Our hotels are comprised of operations and cash flows that can clearly be distinguished, operationally and for financial reporting purposes, from the remainder of our operations. Accordingly, we consider our hotels to be components as defined by SFAS 144 for purposes of determining impairment charges and reporting discontinued operations.
When testing for recoverability we generally use historical and projected cash flows over the expected hold period. When determining fair value for purposes of determining impairment we use a combination of historical and projected cash flows and other available market information, such as recent sales prices for similar assets in specific markets. The estimated cash flows used to test for recoverability are undiscounted while the cash flows used for determining fair values are discounted using a reasonable capitalization rate, or as earlier noted based on the local market conditions using recent sales of similar assets.
In 2005, we recorded impairment charges, under the provisions of SFAS 144, of $266.8 million ($263.1 million of which is included in continuing operations and the remainder is included in discontinued operations). The 2005 charges primarily related to our decision to designate as non-strategic and sell an additional 28 hotels, in connection with the negotiation of the amendment to our IHG management agreements. Under the management agreements entered into with IHG in 2001 and amended in 2004, we were obligated to reinvest the net proceeds from the sale of IHG-managed hotels in other IHG-managed hotels or pay substantial liquidated damages to IHG. This potential exposure to liquidated damages made it impractical to sell IHG-managed hotels. In January 2006, we executed an agreement modifying our management agreements covering our hotels managed by IHG. This agreement eliminates any potential liquidated damages or reinvestment requirement with respect to hotels previously sold, IHG-managed hotels now identified for sale and one Crowne Plaza hotel to be converted to another brand. We also recorded impairment charges with respect to 11 hotels previously designated as non-strategic principally because of revised estimates of fair value resulting from changes in the market and sales offers. In January 2006, we sold eight non-strategic hotels for gross proceeds of approximately $160 million.
In 2004, we recorded impairment charges, under the provisions of SFAS 144, of $38.3 million ($3.5 million of which is included in continuing operations and the remainder is included in discontinued operations). The 2004 charges are related to 17 hotels. With respect to one hotel, we entered into an option in the third quarter 2004 that would permit the option holder to purchase the hotel for substantially less than its carrying value. The remaining hotels either had revised estimates of fair value or reduced estimated holding periods.
In 2003, we recorded impairment charges, under the provisions of SFAS 144, of $245.5 million ($74.2 million of which is included in continuing operations and the remainder is included in discontinued operations). The 2003 charges were primarily related to our decision to sell 11 IHG-managed hotels, following an amendment to the management agreements on these hotels, and our decision to sell an additional seven hotels. We tested certain of our previously impaired non-strategic hotels for recoverability during the fourth quarter of 2003 as the result of one or more of the following circumstances: continued operating losses; further declines in revenue, in excess of that in our core portfolio; further reductions in the estimated hold periods; and revised estimates of fair value. As a result, we recorded additional impairment charges on certain of the non-strategic hotels identified for sale in 2002.

4. Impairment Charge — (continued)
The non-strategic hotels held for investment, which are included in our continuing operations, were tested for impairment as required by SFAS 144 using the undiscounted cash flows for the shorter of the estimated remaining holding periods or the useful life of the hotels. Those hotels that failed the impairment test described in SFAS 144 were written down to their then current estimated fair value, before any selling expenses. These hotels continue to be depreciated over their remaining useful lives.
We may be subject to additional impairment charges in the event that operating results of individual hotels are materially different from our forecasts, the economy and lodging industry weaken, or if we shorten our contemplated holding period for certain of our hotels.
5. Discontinued Operations
The results of operations of the19 hotels disposed of in 2005, 18 hotels disposed of in 2004 and 16 hotels disposed of in 2003, are presented in discontinued operations for the periods presented.

In 2005, we sold 11 hotels for gross proceeds of $79.2 million. Additionally, in 2005 we relinquished title to the non-recourse mortgage holder of eight limited service hotels, owned by a consolidated joint venture, in exchange for the extinguishment of $49.2 million of debt. Associated with these eight hotels we recorded $1.3 million of asset disposition costs and $3.3 million gain on early extinguishment of debt.
In 2004, we sold 17 hotels for gross proceeds of $157.0 million. We also transferred our interest in a hotel that we leased to the lessor in 2004. In conjunction with the termination of this lease we paid the lessor $5 million, which was recorded as asset disposition costs.
In 2003, we sold 14 hotels for gross proceeds of $123.1 million. We also relinquished title to the non-recourse mortgage holder of two low-rise hotels in exchange for the extinguishment of $9.7 million of debt. Associated with these two hotels we recorded $0.3 million gain on early extinguishment of debt.

6. Investment in Unconsolidated Entities
We owned 50% interests in joint venture entities that owned 19 hotels at December 31, 2005 and 20 hotels at December 31, 2004. We also owned a 50% interest in entities that own real estate in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, provide condominium management services, and lease four hotels. We account for our investments in these unconsolidated entities under the equity method. We do not have any majority-owned subsidiaries that are not consolidated in our financial statements. We make adjustments to our equity in income from unconsolidated entities related to the difference between our basis in investment in unconsolidated entities compared to the historical basis of the assets recorded by the joint ventures.

We reported interest expense net of interest income of $4.1 million, $2.8 million and $2.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. We capitalized interest of $1.9 million, $1.5 million and $0.6 million, for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
In the fourth quarter of 2005, we retired $258 million of secured debt related to 25 hotels and entered into a $225 million unsecured term loan. In connection with the early retirement of $258 million of secured debt we recorded $15 million expense in the fourth quarter of 2005. The $225 million term loan was subsequently retired in January 2006 with proceeds from hotel sales, cash on hand and $45 million drawn on our $125 million line of credit, which was established in January 2006. This line of credit has certain restrictive financial covenants, including a leverage ratio, fixed charge coverage ratio, unencumbered leverage ratio and a maximum payout ratio. Associated with the early retirement of the $225 million term loan in January 2006, we will record $0.7 million write-off of loan costs in the first quarter of 2006.
On June 9, 2004, we redeemed all $175 million in principal amount of our outstanding 7.375% Senior Notes due 2004. The redemption price was $1,018 per $1,000 of the principal amount, plus accrued interest. With the retirement of this debt, we recorded a loss on redemption of $3.2 million and wrote off $0.3 million of debt issue costs. We also recorded a $1 million gain on the unwinding of the interest rate swaps tied to this debt.
During 2004, we purchased all $600 million of our 9.5% Senior Notes due 2008 (which bore interest at 10% as a result of the 2003 downgrade of the credit ratings on our senior notes) through tender offers, redemptions and by purchases in the open market, at an average price of $1,063.55 per $1,000 in principal amount. With the retirement of this debt, we recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $41 million of which $38.2 million related to the premium paid in excess of par and $2.8 million related to the charge off of unamortized discount. We also wrote off debt issue costs of $6.5 million.
In 2004, we also elected to terminate our line of credit and wrote off debt issue costs of $0.2 million. We charged off $2.8 million and $3.2 million of unamortized deferred costs as a result of a reduction of the line of credit commitments in 2003 and 2002, respectively.
In June 2003, we entered into a new secured delayed draw facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank for up to $200 million. In 2004, we borrowed $194 million under this facility (collateralized by 15 hotels). The amount drawn under the facility was converted into: (i) $107 million of nine separate fixed rate CMBS loans secured by nine hotels with a weighted average interest rate of 6.5% and with maturity dates ranging from 2009 to 2014, and (ii) $87 million under a cross-collateralized floating rate CMBS loan secured by six hotels with an interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.11% and with a maturity date of 2009, including extension options which are subject to our satisfaction of certain conditions. On July 28, 2004, we cancelled the unused balance of this $200 million facility.
In December 2004, we closed on $40 million second mortgage financing with regard to seven of our hotels. The second mortgage loan has a fixed interest rate of 6.82% and contains the same terms and conditions as the first mortgage, including the maturity date of March 2009.
At December 31, 2005, we had aggregate mortgage indebtedness of $738 million that was secured by 46 of our consolidated hotels with an aggregate book value of $1.2 billion and our Royale Palms condominium development. Substantially all of this debt is recourse solely to the specific assets securing the debt, except in the case of fraud, misapplication of funds and other customary recourse provisions. Loans secured by 10 hotels provide for lock-box arrangements.
With respect to loans secured by 10 hotels, the owner is permitted to retain 115% of budgeted hotel operating expenses before the remaining revenues would become subject to a similar lock-box arrangement if a specified debt service coverage ratio was not met. The mortgage loans secured by eight of these 10 hotels also

provide that, so long as the debt service coverage ratios remain below a second, even lower minimum level, the lender may retain any excess cash (after deduction for the 115% of budgeted operating expenses, debt service, tax, insurance and other reserve requirements) and, if the debt service coverage ratio remains below this lower minimum level for 12 consecutive months, apply any accumulated excess cash to the prepayment of the principal amount of the debt. If the debt service coverage ratio exceeds the lower minimum level for three consecutive months, any then accumulated excess cash will be returned to the owner. Eight of these 10 hotels, which accounted for 6% of our total revenues in 2005, are currently below the applicable debt service coverage ratio and are subject to the lock-box provisions. None of the hotels are currently below the second, even lower minimum debt service coverage ratio that would permit the lender to retain excess cash after deduction for the 115% of budgeted operating expenses, debt service, tax, insurance and other reserve requirements.
Our publicly-traded senior unsecured notes require that we satisfy total leverage, secured leverage and an interest coverage tests in order to: incur additional indebtedness except to refinance maturing debt with replacement debt, as defined under our indentures; pay dividends in excess of the minimum dividend required to meet the REIT qualification test; repurchase capital stock; or merge. As of the date of this filing, we have satisfied all such tests. Under the terms of certain of our indentures, we are prohibited from repurchasing any of our capital stock, whether common or preferred, subject to certain exceptions, so long as our debt-to-EBITDA ratio, as defined in the indentures, exceeds 4.85 to 1. Debt, as defined in the indentures, approximates our consolidated debt. EBITDA is defined in the indentures as consolidated GAAP net income, adjusted for minority interest in FelCor LP, actual cash distributions by unconsolidated entities, gains or losses from asset sales, dividends on preferred stock and extraordinary gains and losses (as defined at the date of the indentures), plus interest expense, income taxes, depreciation expense, amortization expense and other non-cash items. Although our current debt-to-EDITDA ratio is below 4.85 to 1, a decline in our EBITDA, as a result of asset sales or adverse economic developments, or an increase in our debt, could make us subject to this limitation.
If actual operating results fall significantly below our current expectations, as reflected in our current public guidance, or if interest rates increase substantially above expected levels, we may be unable to continue to satisfy the incurrence test under the indentures governing our senior unsecured notes. In such an event, we may be prohibited from, among other things, incurring any additional indebtedness, except under certain specific exceptions, or paying dividends on our preferred or common stock, except to the extent necessary to satisfy the REIT qualification requirement that we distribute currently at least 90% of our taxable income.

8. Derivatives
On the date we enter into a derivative contract, we designate the derivative as a hedge to the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or a firm commitment (referred to as a fair value hedge), or the exposure to variable cash flows of a forecasted transaction (referred to as a cash flow hedge). For a fair value hedge, the gain or loss is recognized in earnings in the period of change, together with the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the risk being hedged. The effect of that accounting is to reflect in earnings the extent to which the hedge is not effective in achieving offsetting changes in fair value. For a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the derivative’s gain or loss is initially reported as a component of other comprehensive income (outside earnings) and subsequently reclassified into earnings when the forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the gain or loss is reported in earnings immediately. At December 31, 2005, all of our outstanding hedges were cash flow hedges.
We formally document all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as our risk-management objective and strategy, relating to our various hedge transactions. This process includes linking all derivatives to specific assets and liabilities on the balance sheet or specific firm commitments. We also formally assess (both at the hedge’s inception and on an ongoing basis) whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions have been highly effective in offsetting changes in the cash flows or fair values of hedged items and whether those derivatives may be expected to remain highly effective in future periods. When we determine that a derivative is not (or has ceased to be) highly effective as a hedge, we will discontinue hedge accounting, prospectively.
In the normal course of business, we are exposed to the effect of interest rate changes. We limit these risks by following established risk management policies and procedures including the use of derivatives. It is our objective to use interest rate hedges to manage our fixed and floating interest rate position and not to engage in speculation on interest rates. We manage interest rate risk based on the varying circumstances of anticipated borrowings, and existing floating and fixed rate debt. We will generally seek to pursue interest rate risk mitigation strategies that will result in the least amount of reported earnings volatility under generally accepted accounting principles, while still meeting strategic economic objectives and maintaining adequate liquidity and flexibility. Instruments that meet these hedging criteria are formally designated as hedges at the inception of the derivative contract.
In June 2004, we unwound six interest rate swap agreements, designated as fair value hedges, with an aggregate notional amount of $175 million that were matched with the $175 million in senior unsecured notes due 2004 that we redeemed. A $1 million gain was recorded, offsetting the loss on the redemption of the debt. Also during June 2004, five additional swaps with an aggregate amount of $125 million that were matched to the $125 million senior unsecured notes due 2007 were unwound at a cost of $2.3 million. The $2.3 million was applied to the principal balance of these notes and will be amortized to interest expense over the remaining life of the debt. During July 2004, four interest rate swap agreements with a notional value of $100 million, that were matched to mortgage debt maturing in November 2007, were unwound at a cost of $1.3 million. The $1.3 million was applied to the principal balance of this debt and will be amortized to interest expense over the remaining life of this debt.
To determine the fair values of our derivative instruments, we use a variety of methods and assumptions that are based on market conditions and risks existing at each balance sheet date. All methods of assessing fair value result in a general approximation of value, and such value may never actually be realized.

8. Derivatives — (continued)
At December 31, 2005, we had three interest rate swaps with aggregate notional amount of $100 million, maturing in December 2007. These interest rate swaps are designated as cash flow hedges, and are marked to market through other comprehensive income. The estimated unrealized net gain on these interest rate swap agreements was approximately $2.2 million at December 31, 2005, and represents the amount we would receive if the agreements were terminated, based on current market rates. These amounts subsequently are reclassified into interest expense as a yield adjustment in the same period in which the related interest on the floating-rate debt obligations affects earnings. During the year ended December 31, 2006, approximately $1.2 million of gains in accumulated other comprehensive income related to the interest rate swap are expected to be reclassified as a reduction in interest expense as a yield adjustment of the hedged debt obligation. The interest rate received on these interest rate swaps is 4.25% plus LIBOR and the interest rate paid is 7.80%. These swaps have been 100% effective through December 31, 2005.
The amounts paid or received by us under the terms of the interest rate swap agreements are accrued as interest rates change, and we recognize them as an adjustment to interest expense, which will have a corresponding effect on our future cash flows. The interest rate swaps increased interest expense by $0.3 million during the year ended December 31, 2005 and decreased interest expense by $4.1 million and $7.2 million during the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Our interest rate swaps have monthly to semi-annual settlement dates. Agreements such as these contain a credit risk in that the counterparties may be unable to fulfill the terms of the agreement. We minimize that risk by evaluating the creditworthiness of our counterparties, who are limited to major banks and financial institutions, and we do not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties. The Standard & Poor’s credit ratings for each of the financial institutions that are counterparties to our interest rate swap agreements are AA to AA-.
To fulfill requirements under the $150 million secured loan facility executed in April 2003, we purchased 6% interest rate caps with a notional amount of $141.1 million. We concurrently sold interest rate caps with identical terms. In July 2004, we purchased 6.5% interest rate caps on LIBOR with a notional amount of $84.6 million to fulfill requirements under an $87 million cross-collateralized floating rate CMBS loan and concurrently sold interest rate caps with identical terms. These interest rate cap agreements have not been designated as hedges. The fair value of both the purchased and sold interest rate caps were equal at December 31, 2005, resulting in no net earnings impact.
9. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
SFAS 107 requires disclosures about the fair value of all financial instruments, whether or not recognized for financial statement purposes. Disclosures about fair value of financial instruments are based on pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 2005. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that we could realize on disposition of the financial instruments. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.
Our estimates of the fair value of (i) accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate carrying value due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments; (ii) debt is based upon effective borrowing rates for issuance of debt with similar terms and remaining maturities; and (iii) our interest rate swaps and the hedged debt are recorded at estimates of fair value, which are based on the amount that we estimate we would currently receive upon termination of these instruments at current market rates and with reasonable assumptions about relevant future market conditions. The estimated fair value of our debt is $1.6 billion at December 31, 2005.

10. Income Taxes
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code. To qualify as a REIT, we must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that we distribute at least 90% of our taxable income to our stockholders. We currently intend to adhere to these requirements and maintain our REIT status. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to corporate level federal income taxes on net income we distribute to our stockholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to federal income taxes at regular corporate rates (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) and may not qualify as a REIT for four subsequent taxable years. Even if we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we may be subject to certain state and local taxes on our income and property and to federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed taxable income. In addition, taxable income from non-REIT activities managed through TRSs is subject to federal, state and local taxes.
We generally lease our hotels to wholly-owned TRSs that are subject to federal and state income taxes. In 2005 and 2004, we also contributed certain hotel assets to our wholly-owned TRSs. We account for income taxes in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” Under SFAS 109, we account for income taxes using the asset and liability method, under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.

We have provided a valuation allowance against our deferred tax asset as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, that results in a net deferred tax asset of zero as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 due to the uncertainty of realization (because of ongoing operating losses). Accordingly, no provision or benefit for income taxes is reflected in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of December 31, 2005, the TRS has net operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes of $428.5 million which are available to offset future taxable income, if any, through 2025.

If we sell any asset acquired from Bristol Hotel Company, or Bristol, within 10 years after our merger with Bristol in 1998, and we recognize a taxable gain on the sale, we will be taxed at the highest corporate rate on an amount equal to the lesser of the amount of gain that we recognize at the time of the sale, or the amount of gain that we would have recognized if we had sold the asset at the time of the Bristol merger for its then fair market value. The sales of Bristol hotels that have been made to date have not resulted in any material amount of tax liability. If we are successful in selling the hotels that we have designated as non-strategic, the majority of which are Bristol hotels, we could incur corporate income tax with respect to the related built in gain, the amount of which cannot yet be determined. At the current time, we believe that we will be able to avoid any substantial built in gain tax on these sales through offsetting built in losses, like kind exchanges and other tax planning strategies.

In 2002, we issued 1,025,800 depositary shares, representing 10,258 shares of our Series B preferred stock at $24.37 per depositary share to yield 9.4%. In 2005, we redeemed all of the outstanding Series B preferred stock. The redemption of the Series B preferred shares resulted in a reduction in income available to common shareholders of $6.5 million and representing the original issuance cost of the Series B preferred shares redeemed.
On April 8, 2005, we completed the issuance of 5.4 million depositary shares, and an additional 1.4 million depositary shares on August 30, 2005, each representing 1/100 of a share of our 8% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, with gross proceeds of $135 million and $34.4 million, respectively. The gross proceeds were used to redeem all of our 9% Series B preferred stock. We may call the Series C preferred stock and the corresponding depositary shares at $25 per depositary share. These shares have no stated maturity, sinking fund or mandatory redemption, and are not convertible into any of our other securities. The Series C preferred stock has a liquidation preference of $2,500 per share (equivalent to $25 per depositary share) and is entitled to annual cumulative dividends at the rate of 8% of the liquidation preference (equivalent to $2.25 annually per depositary share).
Accrued dividends payable of $8.6 million at December 31, 2005, were paid in January 2006.
FelCor LP Units

Units of limited partner interest may also be issued by FelCor LP to third parties in exchange for cash or property, and Units so issued to third parties are redeemable at the option of the holders thereof for a like number of shares of our common stock or, at our option, for the cash equivalent thereof. During 2005, 25,595 Units were exchanged for a like number of common shares issued from treasury stock. During 2004, 245,398 Units were exchanged for a like number of our common shares issued from treasury stock.

12. Hotel Operating Revenue, Departmental Expenses and Other Property Operating Costs — (continued)
Approximately 99.8% to 99.9% of our revenue in 2005, 2004 and 2003 was comprised of hotel operating revenues, which includes room revenue, food and beverage revenue, and revenue from other operating departments (such as telephone, parking and business centers). These revenues are recorded net of any sales or occupancy taxes collected from our guests. All rebates or discounts are recorded, when allowed, as a reduction in revenue, and there are no material contingent obligations with respect to rebates or discounts offered by us. All revenues are recorded on an accrual basis, as earned. Appropriate allowances are made for doubtful accounts and are recorded as a bad debt expense. The remaining percentage of our revenue was from retail space rental revenue and other sources in 2005, 2004 and 2003. During 2004, we recorded $1 million of other revenue that we received in development fees from the successful completion of a condominium project.
We do not have any time-share arrangements and do not sponsor any guest frequency programs for which we would have any contingent liability. We participate in guest frequency programs sponsored by the brand owners of our hotels, and we expense the charges associated with those programs (typically consisting of a percentage of the total guest charges incurred by a participating guest), as incurred. When a guest redeems accumulated guest frequency points at one of our hotels, the hotel bills the sponsor for the services provided in redemption of such points and records revenue in the amount of the charges billed to the sponsor. Associated with the guest frequency programs, we have no loss contingencies or ongoing obligation beyond what is paid to the brand owner at the time of the guest’s stay.

16. Commitments, Contingencies and Related Party Transactions — (continued)
In an effort to keep our cost of insurance within reasonable limits, we have only purchased terrorism insurance for those hotels that are secured by mortgage debt, as required by our lenders. Our terrorism insurance has per occurrence and aggregate limits of $50 million. We have established a self-insured retention of $250,000 per occurrence for general liability insurance with regard to 71 of our hotels; the remainder of our hotels participate in general liability programs of our managers, with no deductible. Because of our general liability deductible for the 71 hotels, we maintain reserves to cover the estimated ultimate uninsured liability for losses with respect to reported and unreported claims incurred as of the end of each accounting period. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, our reserve for this self-insured portion of general liability claims was $5.6 million and $3.9 million, respectively. Our property program has a $100,000 all risk deductible, a deductible of 3% of insured value for named windstorm and a deductible of 5% of insured value for California quake. Should uninsured or not fully insured losses be substantial, they could have a material adverse impact on our operating results and cash flows.
There is no litigation pending or known to be threatened against us or affecting any of our hotels, other than claims arising in the ordinary course of business or which are not considered to be material. Furthermore, most of these claims are substantially covered by insurance. We do not believe that any claims known to us, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on us.
Our hotels are operated under various management agreements that call for base management fees, which range from 2% to 7% of hotel room revenue and generally have an incentive provision related to the hotel’s profitability. In addition, the management agreements generally require us to invest approximately 3% to 5% of revenues in capital maintenance. The management agreements have terms from 5 to 20 years and generally have renewal options.
With the exception of 69 hotels whose rights to use a brand name are contained in the management agreement governing their operations, and our one hotel that does not operate under a nationally recognized brand name, each of our hotels operates under a franchise or license agreement. Typically, our franchise or license agreements provide for a royalty fee of 4% of room revenues to be paid to the franchisor.
In the event we breach one of our Embassy Suites Hotels franchise license agreements, in addition to losing the right to use the Embassy Suites Hotels name for the operation of the applicable hotel, we may be liable, under certain circumstances, for liquidated damages equal to the fees paid to the franchisor with respect to that hotel during the three preceding years.
As a part of the amendment to the IHG management agreements, we have agreed to spend, by June 30, 2007, approximately $50.6 million with regard to special capital plans on 11 hotels. We are to agree upon special capital plans to be completed by July 2008 with regard to four hotels and January 2011 with regard to two hotels.

For the year ended December 31, 2004, repayment of borrowings of $838.9 million consisted of $775.0 million in early retirement of senior notes, $18.9 million of normal recurring principal payments, $41.3 million of premium paid in excess of par on the retirement of the senior notes and $3.7 million to retire interest rate swaps. For the year ended December 31, 2003, the repayment of borrowings consisted entirely of debt repayment and normal recurring principal payments.
18. Stock Based Compensation Plans
We sponsor four restricted stock and stock option plans, or the FelCor Plans. In addition, upon completion of the merger with Bristol in 1998, we assumed two stock option plans previously sponsored by Bristol, or the Bristol Plans. We were initially obligated to issue up to 1,237,309 shares of our common stock pursuant to the Bristol Plans. No additional options may be awarded under the Bristol Plans. The FelCor Plans and the Bristol Plans are referred to collectively as the Plans.
We are authorized to issue 4,700,000 shares of common stock under the FelCor Plans pursuant to awards granted in the form of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, and restricted stock. All options have 10-year contractual terms and vest either over five equal annual installments (20% per year), beginning in the year following the date of grant or 100% at the end of a four-year vesting term. Under the FelCor Plans, there were 990,138 shares available for grant at December 31, 2005.
There were options covering 75,385 shares outstanding under the Bristol Plans at December 31, 2005. These options are fully vested.

The cost of health insurance benefits were $0.7 million during 2005 and $0.6 million each of the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003. The deferred compensation plan we offer is available only to directors and qualifying senior officers. We make no matching or other contributions to the deferred compensation plan, other than the payment of its operating and administrative expenses.
The employees at our hotels are employees of the respective management companies. Under the management agreements, we reimburse the management companies for the compensation and benefits related to the employees who work at our hotels. We are not, however, the sponsors of their employee benefit plans and have no obligation to fund these plans.
20. Segment Information
SFAS 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” requires the disclosure of selected information about operating segments. Based on the guidance provided in the standard, we have determined that our business is conducted in one operating segment because of the similar economic characteristics of our hotels.
The following table sets forth revenues for continuing operations, and investment in hotel assets represented by, the following geographical areas as of and for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 (in thousands):

21. Recently Issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment”, which is a revision of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”. SFAS No. 123(R) supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and amends SFAS No. 95, “Statement of Cash Flows”. Generally, the approach in SFAS No. 123(R) is similar to the approach described in SFAS No. 123. However, SFAS No. 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. The new standard will be effective for the Company in the first annual reporting period beginning after June 15, 2005. We expect to adopt this standard under the modified prospective application. Adoption is not expected to have a material effect on the Company.
In March 2005, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 47 (“FIN 47”), “Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143.” FIN 47 refers to a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the entity. An entity is required to recognize a liability for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation if the fair value of the liability can be reasonably estimated. The fair value of a liability for the conditional asset retirement obligation should be recognized when incurred, generally upon acquisition, construction, or development and through the normal operation of the asset. This interpretation is effective no later than the end of fiscal years ending after December 31, 2005. Adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
22. Quarterly Operating Results (unaudited)
Our unaudited consolidated quarterly operating data for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, follows (in thousands, except per share data). In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of quarterly results have been reflected in the data. It is also management’s opinion, however, that quarterly operating data for hotel enterprises are not indicative of results to be achieved in succeeding quarters or years. In order to obtain a more accurate indication of performance, there should be a review of operating results, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for a period of several years.
