NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS) 1. ORGANIZATION Winston Hotels, Inc. (the "Company") operates so as to qualify as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") for federal income tax purposes. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial statements. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Due to the seasonality of the hotel business, the information for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 is not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year. This Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999. 2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1999 financial statements to conform with the 2000 presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on net income or shareholders' equity previously reported. 3. ADOPTION AND IMPACT OF SAB 101 In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 ("SAB 101") which provides guidance on revenue recognition. SAB 101 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1999. SAB 101 requires that a lessor not recognize contingent rental income until annual specified hurdles have been achieved by the lessee. During 1999 and prior years, consistent with industry practice, the Company recognized contingent rentals throughout the year since it was considered probable that the lessee would exceed the annual specified hurdles. The Company has reviewed the terms of its leases and has determined that the provisions of SAB 101 materially impact the Company's revenue recognition on an interim basis, effectively deferring the recognition of revenue from its leases from the first and second quarters of the calendar year to the third and fourth quarters. SAB 101 will impact the Company's revenue recognition on an annual basis, although to a much lesser degree, as seven of the Company's forty-nine leases have fiscal year ends which differ from the Company's fiscal year end of December 31. (Had the Company adopted the provisions of SAB 101 on January 1, 1999, the Company would have deferred $720 of percentage lease revenue for the year ended December 31, 1999, representing 1.2% of total percentage lease revenue for the year.) The Company has accounted for SAB 101 as a change in accounting principle effective January 1, 2000, and therefore has not restated the 1999 or prior years' financial statements. SAB 101 will have no impact on the Company's funds from operations or its cash flow from its third party lessees, and therefore, on its ability to pay dividends. As of September 30, 2000, the Company deferred percentage lease revenue resulting from the adoption of SAB 101 totaled $10,508, at least 90% of which will be recognized in the fourth quarter of 2000 with the balance to be recognized during the first and second quarters of 2001. As noted above, the Company has seven leases with non-calendar year fiscal years. These seven leases generated $720 of revenue, that, had SAB 101 been in effect, would have been deferred as of December 31, 1999, and is shown as a "cumulative effect of change in accounting principle" on the accompanying Statements of Income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. During the first half of 2000, the Company recognized all $720 cumulative effect of change in accounting principle, as those seven leases' fiscal years ended on or prior to June 30, 2000. This $720 is included in 2000 percentage lease revenue. 7 8 4.

(the "Company") operates as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") to invest in hotel properties. The Company owned 49 hotels (the "Current Hotels") as of September 30, 2000. The Company owned 38 hotels as of December 31, 1997, and acquired eight hotels and opened five internally developed hotels in 1998 (the "1998 Hotels"). The Company sold 2 hotels in 2000. It currently leases 47 of the total 49 Current Hotels to CapStar Winston Company, L.L.C. ("CapStar Winston"), one of the Current Hotels to Bass PLC of London ("Bass"), and one of the Current Hotels to Prime Hospitality Corp. ("Prime") under leases that provide for rent payments based, in part, on revenues from the Current Hotels ("Percentage Leases") through which the Company receives its principal source of revenue. The Company also owns a 49% ownership interest in a 158-room Hilton Garden Inn hotel located in Windsor, Connecticut. This hotel, which is owned and operated under a Joint Venture agreement with Regent Partners, Inc., opened on September 19, 2000. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2000 and September 30, 1999, the difference in operating results is primarily attributable to the adoption of the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 ("SAB 101") effective January 1, 2000. SAB 101 requires that a lessor not recognize contingent rental income until annual specified hurdles have been achieved by the lessee. As a result of SAB 101, the Company deferred recognition of $9,789 of its percentage lease revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2000. Had the Company not adopted SAB 101, the Company would have reported percentage lease revenue totaling $16,487 during the third quarter of 2000, a decrease of $3 versus percentage lease revenue recognized during the third quarter of 1999, and $48,757 during the first nine months of 2000, an increase of $242 over percentage lease revenue recognized during the same period of 1999. SAB 101 will have no impact on the Company's Funds From Operations ("FFO"), or its interim or annual cash flow from its third party lessees, and therefore, on its ability to pay dividends. The Company sold its Comfort Suites hotel in London, Kentucky in February 2000 and sold its Hampton Inn hotel in Duncanville, Texas in September 2000. The Company made no other acquisitions or dispositions of hotel properties during the first nine months of 2000. The table below outlines the number of hotels owned by the Company by service type as of September 30, 2000 and 1999. September 30, September 30, Type of Hotel 2000 1999 ------------- ------------- ------------- Limited-service hotels 27 29 Extended-stay hotels 11 11 Full-service hotels 11 11 ------------- ------------- Total 49 51 ============= ============= In addition, the Company opened an upscale, full-service Hilton Garden Inn in Windsor, Connecticut on September 19, 2000. The Company owns a 49% ownership interest in this hotel under a joint venture agreement with Regent Partners, Inc.. This hotel is not included in the number of hotels shown in the above table. 13 14 THE COMPANY ACTUAL - THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 VS. ACTUAL - THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 The Company had revenue of $19,213 in 2000 consisting of $18,744 of percentage lease revenue and $469 of interest, joint venture and other income. Percentage lease revenue increased $2,254 to $18,744 in 2000 from $16,490 in 1999. This increase was attributable to the adoption of SAB 101 effective January 1, 2000, which resulted in recognizing $2,257 additional percentage lease revenue that was deferred during the first six months of 2000. Had the Company not adopted SAB 101, percentage lease revenue for the third quarter of 2000 would have been $16,487, a decrease of $3 versus percentage lease revenue reported during the same quarter of 1999. This decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease of $481 in percentage lease revenue generated by hotels owned prior to 1998 as a result of competitive pressures, partially offset by an increase of $478 in percentage lease revenue from the 1998 Hotels due to an increase in the average daily rates at these hotels. Real estate taxes and property and casualty insurance costs incurred in 2000 were $1,473, an increase of $276 from $1,197 in 1999. This increase consists of an increase of $168 in real estate taxes and an increase of $108 in property and casualty insurance expense. The increase in property taxes was primarily attributable to increases in assessed values and tax rates. The increase in property and casualty insurance expense was due primarily to property coverage premium increases. General and administrative expenses increased $267 to $1,139 in 2000 from $872 in 1999. This increase was primarily attributable to increases in compensation costs, communication expenses, and legal fees associated with joint venture and mezzanine financing activities. Interest expense increased $211 to $3,460 in 2000 from $3,249 in 1999. This increase was primarily due to an increase of 0.80% in the Company's weighted average interest rate from 7.00% in 1999 to 7.80% in 2000. Weighted average outstanding borrowings decreased $5,443, from $178,286 in 1999 to $172,843 in 2000. Depreciation expense increased $108 to $5,293 in 2000 from $5,185 in 1999, primarily due to depreciation related to capital additions to the hotels in the fourth quarter of 1999 and in 2000. ACTUAL - NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 VS. ACTUAL - NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 The Company had revenue of $39,786 in 2000 consisting of $38,968 of percentage lease revenue and $818 of interest, joint venture and other income. Percentage lease revenue decreased $9,547 to $38,968 in 2000 from $48,515 in 1999. This decrease was attributable to the adoption of SAB 101 effective January 1, 2000, which resulted in deferring percentage lease revenue totaling $9,789 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. The Company expects to recognize approximately 90% of this deferred revenue during the fourth quarter of 2000 with the balance to be recognized during the first and second quarters of 2001. Had the Company not adopted SAB 101, percentage lease revenue for the first nine months of 2000 would have been $48,757, an increase of $242 over the percentage lease revenue reported during the same period of 1999. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase of $1,518 in percentage lease revenue from the 1998 Hotels due to an increase in occupancy rates and average daily rates at these hotels, partially offset by a decrease of $1,276 in percentage lease revenue generated by the hotels owned prior to 1998 as a result of competitive pressures. Real estate taxes and property and casualty insurance costs incurred in 2000 were $5,260, an increase of $382 from $4,878 in 1999. This increase consists of an increase of $238 in real estate taxes and an increase of $144 in property and casualty insurance expense. The increase in property taxes was primarily attributable to increases in assessed values and tax rates. The increase in property and casualty insurance expense was due to property coverage premium increases. General and administrative expenses increased slightly to $3,558 in 2000 from $3,470 in 1999. Interest expense increased $713 to $10,057 in 2000 from $9,344 in 1999. This increase was primarily due to an increase of 0.69% in the Company's weighted average interest rate from 6.90% in 1999 to 7.59% in 2000, and a decrease in capitalized interest of $108. Weighted average outstanding borrowings decreased $5,441, from $179,129 in 1999 to $173,688 in 2000. Depreciation expense increased $529 to $15,829 in 2000 from $15,300 in 1999, primarily due to depreciation related to capital additions to the hotels in the fourth quarter of 1999 and in 2000. The cumulative effect of change in accounting principle, which resulted from the adoption of SAB 101 effective January 1, 2000, totaled $720. According to the provisions of SAB 101, this amount represents deferred percentage lease revenue as of January 1, 2000 generated by the Company's seven percentage leases that have non-calendar year fiscal years. During the first six months of 2000, the Company recognized all $720 of the total cumulative effect of change in accounting principle, which is included in percentage lease revenue in the accompanying Statements of Income. 14 15 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company finances its operations from operating cash flow, which is principally derived from its Percentage Leases. For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, cash flow provided by operating activities was $28,760 and funds from operations, which is equal to net income (loss) before allocation to minority interest and cumulative effect of change in accounting principle (excluding gains (losses) on sales of depreciable operating property) plus depreciation, plus deferred revenue, less preferred dividends, was $24,803. Under federal income tax law provisions applicable to REITs, the Company is required to distribute at least 95% of its taxable income to maintain its tax status as a REIT. During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Company declared distributions of $19,396 to its common stock and preferred stock shareholders. Because the Company's cash flow from operating activities is expected to exceed its taxable income due to depreciation and amortization expenses, the Company expects to be able to meet its distribution requirements out of cash flow from operating activities. On February 15, 2000, the Company sold its Comfort Suites hotel in London, Kentucky for cash proceeds of $2,497, resulting in a loss of $262 as shown on the accompanying Statement of Income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. On September 29, 2000, the Company sold its Hampton Inn hotel in Duncanville, Texas for cash proceeds of $2,812, resulting in a net loss of $588 as shown on the accompanying Statements of Income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2000. The Company is also considering the sale of certain other non-core hotels that lie outside the Company's upscale segment focus and plans to use the proceeds for general corporate purposes, including but not limited to reducing debt, pursuing opportunities that management believes will enhance stockholder value, and funding certain selected mezzanine loans to qualified third party borrowers for hotel projects. The Company's net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 totaled $6,164. This net use of cash primarily resulted from hotel renovations and capital expenditures totaling $5,007, investments in joint ventures of $2,582 and mezzanine financing of $1,080, offset by the proceeds received from the sale of the Comfort Suites hotel in London, Kentucky totaling $2,497. The proceeds from the sale of the Duncanville, Texas Hampton Inn on September 29, 2000 were received on October 2, 2000. The Company plans to spend approximately $2,781 for capital improvements and renovations at certain of its Current Hotels during the fourth quarter of 2000. Combined with capital expenditures made during the first nine months of 2000, these expenditures exceed the 5.0% of room revenues for its hotels (7.0% of room revenues and food and beverage revenues for one of its full-service hotels) which the Company is required to spend under its Percentage Leases for periodic capital improvements and the refurbishment and replacement of furniture, fixtures and equipment at its Current Hotels. These capital expenditures are funded from operating cash flow, and possibly from borrowings under the Company's $140,000 line of credit, sources which are expected to be adequate to fund such capital requirements. The capital expenditures are in addition to amounts spent on normal repairs and maintenance which have approximated 5.1% and 5.4% of room revenues for each of the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and are paid by CapStar Winston, Prime and Bass. During 1999, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with Regent Partners, Inc., (the "Regent Agreement") to jointly develop hotel properties. As of September 30, 2000, the Company had invested $2,726 in hotels to be developed under the Regent Agreement, and has committed to provide additional equity of $4,498 over the next 15 months. The first hotel developed under the Regent Agreement, a full service 158-room Hilton Garden Inn in Windsor, Connecticut, was opened on September 19, 2000. The second hotel to be developed under the Regent Agreement, a full service 177-room Hilton Garden Inn in Evanston, Illinois, is under construction and scheduled to open before the holiday season in 2001. In addition, during the first quarter of 2000, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with Marsh Landing Investment, L.L.C., (the "Marsh Landing Agreement") to jointly develop a 118-room Hampton Inn in Ponte Vedra, Florida. This is an arms length joint venture agreement with Marsh Landing Investment, L.L.C., headed by the Company's Chairman, Charles M. Winston, and Board member, James H. Winston. As of September 30, 2000, the Company had invested $1,557, and has committed to provide additional equity of $149 upon completion of the hotel, which is expected to occur during the fourth quarter of 2000. The Company holds a 49 percent ownership interest in each of the joint ventures with Regent Partners, Inc. and in the joint venture with Marsh Landing Investment, L.L.C.. Per the terms of each joint venture, the Company receives fees for its services which include development fees and purchasing fees. The Company receives ongoing asset management fees as each hotel opens. 15 16 On July 5, 2000, the Company entered into a strategic alliance with Noble Investment Group, Ltd. ("Noble") to partially finance and develop two Hilton Garden Inn hotels in Atlanta, Georgia and Tampa, Florida and to explore other similar upscale Hilton and Marriott opportunities. In July, the Company provided a $1,080 mezzanine loan for the 122-room Hilton Garden Inn in Atlanta and is expected to provide another mezzanine loan of approximately $2,300 for the 150-room Hilton Garden Inn in Tampa. The Company currently receives interest income from the mezzanine funding. Noble is responsible for providing the remainder of the funding and will own and operate the hotels. The Atlanta project is under construction and is scheduled to open during the second quarter of 2001. The Tampa project is scheduled to begin construction during the fourth quarter of 2000 and is scheduled to open during the fourth quarter of 2001. In connection with the alliance, the Company will co-develop the Atlanta project with Noble and will provide all development services for the Tampa project, and will receive fees for its development services. The Company continues to seek additional mezzanine financing opportunities. The Company's net cash used in financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2000 totaled $22,507. This amount included payment of distributions to shareholders of $19,373 and the payment of distributions to Winn Limited Partnership's minority interest of $1,091, long-term debt payments of $820, a reduction of $1,100 in the Company's $140,000 line of credit (the "Line") balance from $104,500 to $103,400, and payment of fees related to financing facilities of $91. The Line bears interest generally at rates from 30-day LIBOR plus 1.45% to 30-day LIBOR plus 1.70%, based primarily upon the Company's level of total indebtedness. The Company's current rate is 30-day LIBOR plus 1.45%. The Line is collateralized with 28 of the Company's Current Hotels. As of September 30, 2000, the Company's availability under the Line totaled approximately $24,358, after consideration of outstanding commitments. Per the requirements of the Line, which in effect require the Company to have at least 50% of its total indebtedness subject to a fixed rate of debt, the Company entered into an interest rate cap agreement in March 1999. The interest rate cap agreement eliminates the exposure to increases in 30-day LIBOR over 7.50% on $25,000 of the outstanding balances under the Line for the period March 25, 1999 through March 25, 2002. As of September 30, 2000, the 30-day LIBOR rate was 6.62%. The Company had $69,155 in long-term debt at September 30, 2000 that was subject to a fixed interest rate and principal payments. This debt is comprised of a 10-year loan with a 25-year amortization period with GE Capital Corporation, which carries an interest rate of 7.375%. This debt facility is collateralized with 14 of the Company's Current Hotels. The Company intends to continue to seek additional mezzanine loan opportunities and to acquire and develop additional hotel properties that meet its investment criteria and is continually evaluating such opportunities. It is expected that future mezzanine loans and hotel acquisitions will be financed, in whole or in part, from additional follow-on offerings, from borrowings under the Line, from joint venture agreements, from the net sale proceeds of hotel properties and/or from the issuance of other debt or equity securities. There can be no assurances that the Company will make any further mezzanine loans or any investment in additional hotel properties, or that any hotel development will be undertaken, or if commenced, that it will be completed on schedule or on budget. Further, there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to obtain any additional financing. SEASONALITY The hotels' operations historically have been seasonal in nature, reflecting higher revenue per available room during the second and third quarters. This seasonality and the structure of the Percentage Leases, which provide for a higher percentage of room revenues above the minimum quarterly levels to be paid as Percentage Rent, can be expected to cause fluctuations in the Company's quarterly cash flow from its third party lessees under the Percentage Leases. In addition, the revenue recognition provisions of SAB 101 materially impact the Company's revenue recognition on an interim basis, effectively deferring the recognition of revenue from the first and second quarters of the calendar year to the third and fourth quarters. 16 17 FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS The Company considers Funds From Operations ("FFO") a widely used and appropriate measure of performance for an equity REIT. FFO, as defined by NAREIT, is income (loss) before minority interest (determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles), excluding gains (losses) from sales of depreciable operating property, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. The Company further adjusts FFO by adding the change in deferred revenue during the period to eliminate the impact of SAB 101 on revenue recognition. This is consistent with certain other hotel lodging REITs. FFO is presented to assist investors in analyzing the performance of the Company. The Company's method of calculating FFO may be different from methods used by other REITs and accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. FFO (i) does not represent cash flows from operating activities as defined by generally accepted accounting principles, (ii) is not indicative of cash available to fund all cash flow and liquidity needs, including the Company's ability to make distributions, and (iii) should not be considered as an alternative to net income (as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) for purposes of evaluating the Company's operating performance. The following presents the Company's calculation of FFO (in thousands): Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended Sept. 30, 2000 Sept. 30, 1999 Sept. 30, 2000 Sept. 30, 1999 -------------- -------------- -------------- -------------- Income before allocation to minority interest and cumulative effect of change in accounting principle $ 7,024 $ 5,624 $ 3,538 $ 14,973 Plus: depreciation 5,293 5,185 15,829 15,300 Plus: loss on sale of property 588 239 850 239 Plus: deferred percentage lease revenue (2,257) -- 9,789 -- Less: preferred stock dividends 1,734 1,734 5,203 5,203 -------------- -------------- -------------- -------------- FFO $ 8,914 $ 9,314 $ 24,803 $ 25,309 ============== ============== ============== ============== Weighted average number of common shares assuming dilution 18,195 18,127 18,185 18,107 -------------- -------------- -------------- -------------- FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS This report contains certain "forward looking" statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

ACTUAL - THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 The following table sets forth certain historical financial information for the Current Hotels for the periods indicated: Three Months Ended Three Months Ended September 30, 2000 September 30, 1999 ---------------------- ---------------------- Revenue: Rooms $ 33,166 90.4% $ 33,309 90.6% Food and beverage 2,004 5.5% 1,927 5.2% Telephone and other operating departments 1,523 4.1% 1,555 4.2% --------- ------ ---------- ------ Total revenue 36,693 100.0% 36,791 100.0% --------- ------ ---------- ------ Operating costs and expenses: Rooms 7,707 21.0% 7,483 20.3% Food and beverage 1,491 4.1% 1,533 4.2% Telephone and other operating departments 915 2.5% 822 2.2% Undistributed expenses: Lease 15,396 42.0% 15,515 42.2% Administrative and general 3,320 9.0% 3,357 9.1% Sales and marketing 1,609 4.4% 1,507 4.1% Franchise fees 2,392 6.5% 2,362 6.4% Repairs and maintenance 1,627 4.4% 1,579 4.3% Energy 1,601 4.4% 1,610 4.4% Other 265 0.7% 324 0.9% Depreciation and amortization 261 0.7% 263 0.7% --------- ------ ---------- ------ Total expenses 36,584 99.7% 36,355 98.8% --------- ------ ---------- ------ Net income $ 109 0.3% $ 436 1.2% ========= ====== ========== ====== CapStar Winston had room revenue of $33,166 in the third quarter of 2000, a decrease of $143 from $33,309 in the third quarter of 1999. The decrease in room revenue was primarily due to the sale of the Comfort Suites hotel in London, Kentucky by the Company in February 2000 and a decrease in occupancy from 73.6% in 1999 to 71.0% in 2000. Due to a decrease in total rooms available, room revenue decreased. Revenue per available room increased 0.6%. Food and beverage revenue increased $77 to $2,004 from $1,927. This increase was due to a rise in room service and lounge revenue and higher banquet service charges. Telephone and other operating departments revenue decreased $32 to $1,523 from $1,555 due to a decrease in revenue from long distance phone calls. CapStar Winston had total expenses of $36,584 in the third quarter of 2000, an increase of $229 from $36,355 in the third quarter of 1999. This was primarily due to an increase in rooms department expenses. Rooms department expenses increased due to a rise in the cost of medical/dental insurance and workers compensation insurance. 18 19 ACTUAL - NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 VS. ACTUAL - NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 The following table sets forth certain historical financial information for the Current Hotels for the periods indicated: Nine Months Ended Nine Months Ended Sept. 30, 2000 Sept. 30, 1999 ---------------------- ---------------------- Revenue: Rooms $ 98,471 90.0% $ 98,585 90.3% Food and beverage 6,001 5.5% 5,806 5.3% Telephone and other operating departments 4,923 4.5% 4,744 4.4% --------- ------ ---------- ------ Total revenue 109,395 100.0% 109,135 100.0% --------- ------ ---------- ------ Operating costs and expenses: Rooms 22,429 20.5% 21,989 20.2% Food and beverage 4,398 4.0% 4,455 4.1% Telephone and other operating departments 2,849 2.6% 2,499 2.3% Undistributed expenses: Lease expense 45,617 41.7% 45,827 42.0% Administrative and general 9,944 9.1% 10,402 9.5% Sales and marketing 5,024 4.6% 4,871 4.5% Franchise fees 7,047 6.4% 6,977 6.4% Repairs and maintenance 4,801 4.4% 4,830 4.4% Energy 4,408 4.0% 4,377 4.0% Other 1,040 1.0% 969 0.9% Depreciation and amortization 783 0.7% 791 0.7% --------- ------ ---------- ------ Total expenses 108,340 99.0% 107,987 99.0% --------- ------ ---------- ------ Net income $ 1,055 1.0% $ 1,148 1.O% ========= ====== ========== ====== CapStar Winston had room revenue of $98,471 in the first nine months of 2000, a decrease of $114 from $98,585 in the first nine months of 1999. The decrease in room revenue was primarily due to the sale of the Comfort Suites hotel in London, Kentucky by the Company in February 2000 and a decrease in occupancy from 73.1% in 1999 to 71.2% in 2000. Due to a decrease in total rooms available, room revenue decreased. Revenue per available room increased 0.3%. Food and beverage revenue increased $195 to $6,001 from $5,806. This increase was due to a rise in room service and lounge revenue and higher banquet service charges. Telephone and other operating departments revenue increased $179 to $4,923 from $4,744 due to an increase in revenue from movies/videos and banquet production for limited service hotels. CapStar Winston had total expenses of $108,340 in the first nine months of 2000, an increase of $353 from $107,987 in the first nine months of 1999. This increase was primarily due to increases in rooms department and telephone and other operating departments expenses, offset by a decrease in administrative and general department expenses. Rooms department expenses increased due to a rise in the cost of medical/dental insurance and workers compensation insurance. Telephone and other operating departments expenses increased due to the addition of costs related to banquet production for limited service hotels. Administrative and general department expenses decreased due to efficiencies created within the department. 19 20 ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK ($ IN THOUSANDS) As of September 30, 2000, the Company's exposure to market risks for a change in interest rates related solely to its debt outstanding under its Line. Debt outstanding under the Line totaled $103,400 at September 30, 2000. The Line bears interest at rates from 30-day LIBOR plus 1.45% to 30-day LIBOR plus 1.70%, based on the Company's level of total indebtedness. The current interest rate is 30-day LIBOR plus 1.45%. The weighted average interest rates on the Line for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2000 were 7.80% and 7.59%, respectively. The Line is used to maintain liquidity and fund the Company's business operations. Pursuant to the Company's operating strategies, it maintains minimal cash balances and is substantially dependent upon, among other things, the availability of adequate working capital financing to support hotel acquisitions, investments in joint ventures, mezzanine loans, development and major renovations. The definitive extent of the Company's interest rate risk under the Line is not quantifiable or predictable because of the variability of future interest rates and business financing requirements. Per the requirements of the Line, the Company maintains an interest rate cap agreement to eliminate the exposure to increases in 30-day LIBOR over 7.50%, and therefore from its exposure to interest rate increases over 8.95% on a principal balance of $25,000 through March 25, 2002. The Company had $69,155 in long-term debt at September 30, 2000 that was subject to a fixed interest rate and principal payments. This debt is comprised of a 10-year loan with a 25-year amortization period with GE Capital Corporation, which carries an interest rate of 7.375%. The Company's long-term debt has an expiration date of December 2023. The following table presents the aggregate maturities of the fixed principal payments, and interest rates by maturity dates at September 30, 2000: Maturity Date Fixed Rate Debt Interest Rate ------------- --------------- ------------- 2000 $ 283 7.375% 2001 1,187 7.375% 2002 1,278 7.375% 2003 1,376 7.375% 2004 1,480 7.375% Thereafter 63,551 7.375% -------- ------ $ 69,155 7.375% ======== ====== 20 21 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 5. Other Information On August 17, 2000, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program which allows the Company to repurchase up to 1,000,000 shares of its Common Stock from time to time in open market or privately negotiated transactions.
