NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED MARCH 30, 1996 AND MARCH 29, 1997 (UNAUDITED) 1. GENERAL The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Red Roof Inns, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. At March 30, 1996 and March 29, 1997, the Company operated 234 inns and 249 inns, respectively. Unaudited interim results for the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 1996 and March 29, 1997 contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, which management considers necessary for a fair presentation of interim financial position and results of operations for such periods. The results are not necessarily indicative of the results for any other interim period or the full fiscal year. 2. LONG-TERM DEBT As of March 29, 1997, $53.6 million was available for borrowing (including $50 million available upon perfection of liens on additional collateral) under the Company's $150 million bank credit facility. 3. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY On January 31, 1996, the Company issued 10,000,000 shares of common stock in a public offering (the "Offering") at a price of $16.00 per share. Net proceeds of the Offering were approximately $149 million, which were used to repay approximately $128 million of mortgage indebtedness. Approximately $21 million was retained for inn acquisitions, conversions, new development and for general corporate purposes. In connection with the sale of the common stock, $9.6 million in underwriting discounts and commissions were paid to certain underwriters, including an affiliate of The Morgan Stanley Real Estate Fund which, together with affiliates, beneficially owns a majority of the outstanding common stock of the Company. In January 1997, the Company sold 48,647 shares of common stock out of treasury to employees at $12.64 per share under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan for the 1996 plan year. In March 1997, the Company granted options to a certain employee under the Company's Management Stock Option Plan to purchase 25,000 shares at $15.88. The options vest at the rate of 25% per year. During the thirteen week period ended March 29, 1997, options were exercised for 44,316 shares at prices ranging from $5.43 to $16.00 per share under the Company's Management Stock Option Plan. In connection with the termination of the employment of certain plan participants, 19,000 options awarded under the Plan lapsed. In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 ("SFAS No. 128"), "Earnings per Share," which will require retroactive adoption in the Company's 1997 fiscal year. The new standard simplifies the computation of earnings per share and requires the presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Due to the Company's net loss in the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 1996 and March 29, 1997, SFAS No. 128 had no impact on the Company's loss per share for such periods. In February 1997, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to 500,000 of its common shares, at prices not to exceed $18.00 per share, either in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. No shares were repurchased during the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 1997. 7 8 4. INN RENEWAL PROGRAM The Company continued its inn renewal program to refurbish more than 85% of its inns. The program is expected to be completed mid-year 1997 at a total cost of approximately $55 to $60 million. For the thirteen week period ended March 29, 1997, the Company spent $17.9 million related to the inn renewal program, of which $13.1 million was capitalized and $4.8 million was expensed. Costs incurred through March 29, 1997 related to the inn renewal program totaled $28.6 million. 5. SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION For the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 1996 and March 29, 1997, interest payments were $7,196,000 and $6,807,000, respectively, and interest capitalized for the corresponding periods was $598,000 and $513,000, respectively. Income tax payments for the thirteen week periods in 1996 and 1997 were $538,000 and $205,000, respectively. Capital expenditures included in accounts payable at March 29, 1997 and December 28, 1996 totaled $8,867,000 and $7,181,000, respectively. 6. PRO-FORMA INFORMATION INCLUDING SUPPLEMENTAL ADJUSTMENTS The following pro-forma supplemental information, which is presented for purposes of facilitating meaningful comparisons to ongoing operations and to other companies, summarizes the results of operations of the Company, adjusted on a pro-forma basis to reflect (a) the effect of the Offering, as if the Offering had occurred at the beginning of 1996 and (b) the elimination of certain non-recurring expenses.

SUBSEQUENT EVENT The Company has a commitment to refinance its $150 million bank credit facility with a $250 million bank credit facility and expects to execute the credit agreement by the end of May 1997, although there can be no assurance 8 9 that such refinancing will be completed. In connection with the refinancing, the Company will recognize an extraordinary charge against income of $746,000, net of tax, ($.03 per share) in the thirteen week period ended June 28, 1997 related to the write-off of unamortized loan costs on the $150 million credit facility. ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- FINANCIAL CONDITION - ------------------- RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - --------------------- The principal factors affecting Red Roof Inns' results are: occupancy and room rates, continued growth in the number of inns, the Company's ability to manage expenses, the level of competition and seasonality. Demand, and thus occupancy, is affected by normally recurring seasonal patterns and, in most locations, is lower in the winter and early spring months than the balance of the year. Historically, revenues have been lower in the first quarter than in other quarters and the Company has consistently incurred net losses in the first quarter. Unless otherwise indicated, inn data presented in this report is based on the 223 inns (the "Comparable Inns") that the Company owned and operated at the beginning of the fiscal year following four successive quarters as open operating fully renovated or constructed properties. The Company believes that the remaining 26 inns acquired or constructed (the "Inns in Stabilization") have not been operated by the Company for a sufficient period to provide meaningful period-to-period comparisons. At the acquired inns, the Company has closed a significant number of rooms and, therefore, the average daily room rates and occupancy for these inns are not comparable to a stabilized Red Roof inn. Newly acquired and constructed inns historically begin with lower occupancy and average daily rates which improve over time as these inns implement the Company's operating policies and procedures and become integrated into the Company's central reservation system. During the first quarter, the average daily rate ("ADR") increased $3.50, or 8.5%, from $41.11 per occupied room in 1996 to $44.61 per occupied room in 1997. Occupancy decreased from 70.0% in the first quarter of 1996 to 62.6% for the comparable period in 1997. Revenue per available room ("REVPAR") decreased $.85, or 3.0%, from $28.78 in 1996 to $27.93 in 1997. The Company attributes the decline in occupancy and REVPAR to aggressive price increases early in the quarter, to low occupancies due to the New Year's holiday falling on a Wednesday, Easter weekend falling in the first quarter of 1997 versus the second quarter of 1996 and to a significant reduction in demand for hotel rooms in the Atlanta and Texas markets where approximately 10% of the Company's property are located. The Company believes that the decrease in the Atlanta market is due to the high demand generated in 1996 related to preparation for the Summer Olympic Games while the decrease in the Texas market is due to an increase in room supply. The Company adjusted its prices at mid-quarter and, accordingly, has begun to see positive results in both occupancy and REVPAR. The Company opened one inn during the first quarter of 1997, increasing the total number of inns operating at March 29, 1997 to 249. At March 30, 1996, 234 inns were in operation. THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED MARCH 29, 1997 COMPARED TO THIRTEEN WEEKS -------------------------------------------------------------- ENDED MARCH 30, 1996 -------------------- The Company's revenues are principally derived from room rentals. Revenues increased $4.6 million, or 6.8%, from $68.1 million in 1996 to $72.7 million in 1997. Revenues for the 223 Comparable Inns decreased approximately $1.7 million from 1996 to 1997 however revenues increased approximately $6.3 million for the Inns in Stabilization, of which approximately $5.1 million resulted from increasing the number of inns from 234 in 1996 to 249 in 1997. Direct room expenses include salaries, wages, utilities, repairs and maintenance, property taxes, billboard and local advertising, room supplies and security. Direct room expenses increased $1.6 million, or 3.9%, from $41.1 million in 1996 to $42.7 million in 1997. The expenses increased primarily because of the addition of new inns and generally higher salary and wage expenses. As a percentage of revenues, direct room expense decreased from 60.4% in 1996 to 58.7% in 1997 primarily due to savings in routine repairs and maintenance as a result of the inn renewal program. Gross operating profit increased $3.0 million, or 11.1%, from $27.0 million in 1996 to $30.0 million in 1997 primarily as a result of a reduction in operating expense margins and an increase in the number of inns. As a percentage of room revenues, gross operating profit was 39.6% in 1996 and 41.3% in 1997. 9 10 Depreciation and amortization increased $1.0 million from $7.3 million in 1996 to $8.3 million in 1997. The increase primarily reflects depreciation of inns acquired during 1996. In addition, 1996 includes a non-recurring charge of $.5 million related to fixed asset impairments. Corporate and marketing expenses include the cost of general management, training and field supervision of inn managers, development, marketing and administrative expenses. Corporate and marketing expenses increased $1.1 million, or 10.9%, from $10.5 million in 1996 to $11.6 million in 1997. The increase consists primarily of increases in marketing production, media and promotional expenses, which were partially offset by lower travel expenses. As a percentage of revenue, corporate and marketing expenses were 15.4% and 15.9% in 1996 and 1997, respectively. In the fourth quarter of 1996, the Company commenced a chainwide inn renewal program to refurbish more than 85% of its inns. The Company incurred expenses of $4.8 million in 1997 associated with the inn renewal program. Interest expense decreased $.2 million, or 2%, from $11.4 million in 1996 to $11.2 million in 1997 primarily because of the retirement of $128 million of debt out of the proceeds from the Offering which was offset by increased borrowings on the line of credit related to acquisitions and the inn renewal program. The effective income tax rates for 1996 and 1997 were 40.4% and 39.3%, respectively. The decline in the 1997 effective tax rate is due to an anticipated reduction in state and local taxes. CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY - ------------------------------- GENERAL Cash and cash equivalents decreased approximately $4.0 million from $19.7 million on December 28, 1996 to $15.7 million on March 29, 1997. Total debt outstanding increased approximately $17.5 million from $496.2 million on December 28, 1996 to $513.7 million on March 29, 1997. Total debt includes $76.2 million and $96.4 million outstanding under the bank revolving credit facility as of December 28, 1996 and March 29, 1997, respectively. As of March 29, 1997, $53.6 million was available for borrowing (including $50 million available upon perfection of liens on additional collateral) under the Company's $150 million bank credit facility. The Company has a commitment to refinance its $150 million bank credit facility with a $250 million bank credit facility and expects to execute the credit agreement by the end of May 1997, although there can be no assurance that such refinancing will be completed. In connection with the refinancing, the Company will recognize an extraordinary charge against income of $746,000, net of tax, ($0.3 per share) in the thirteen week period ended June 28, 1997 related to the write-off of unamortized loan costs on the $150 million bank credit facility. Management anticipates that its working capital needs will be financed by internally generated cash and the bank credit facility. CAPITAL EXPENDITURES The Company continued its inn renewal program to refurbish substantially all of its inns. For the thirteen week period ended March 29, 1997, the Company spent approximately $13.1 million for such capital improvements and expects to spend approximately $21 million to complete the refurbishment. For the thirteen week period ended March 29, 1997, the Company spent $3.5 million in connection with normal recurring capital maintenance improvements to existing inns, corporate facilities and equipment and expects to spend a total of approximately $8 million for such capital maintenance improvements through the end of the year. Additionally, the Company is completing renovation of properties and construction sites acquired since 1995. In connection with the renovations and improvements of these properties, the Company has spent $8.7 million during the thirteen week period ended March 29, 1997, and expects to spend a total of approximately $30 million through the end of the year. During the thirteen week period ended March 29, 1997, the Company acquired two construction sites for an aggregate cost, including construction costs of $2.2 million. Management expects to spend a total of approximately $9 million for improvements to these properties over the next 18 months. 10 11 Currently, the Company has 10 construction sites under contract to purchase, which are subject to the satisfactory completion of due diligence, for an estimated total cost of approximately $7 million. Management expects to spend approximately $54 million to construct inns on these sites. There is no assurance that these contracts to purchase will result in an acquisition by the Company. Management expects to fund the Company's capital expenditures associated with improvements to the Comparable Inns and Inns in Stabilization from cash flow from operations and from borrowings under the bank credit facility. Expenditures for new construction, acquisitions and renovations will be financed from these sources, together with available cash. HISTORICAL CASH FLOWS Cash provided by operations decreased $2.1 million from $9.0 million in 1996 to $6.9 million in 1997, because of an increase in the net loss for 1997 compared to 1996, which was primarily the result of a non-recurring cash expense in 1997 related to the inn renewal program. Net cash used by investing activities increased $7.3 million from $22.4 million in 1996 to $29.7 million in 1997, primarily due to expenditures for acquisitions, renovations and construction activities associated with the Company's expansion program. Expenditures for property and equipment in 1997 include the acquisition of two development sites for a total cost of $2.2 million and $8.7 million related to renovations and improvements on 17 properties and 18 development sites which have been acquired or under construction since 1995. Net cash provided by financing activities decreased $.7 million from $19.5 million in 1996 to $18.8 million in 1997, primarily as the result of borrowings under the bank facility to fund the Company's expansion program. Cash flow from financing activities in 1996 primarily resulted from proceeds from the Offering, net of the retirement of debt. EBITDA EBITDA is operating income plus the sum of interest income, other income, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA decreased $3.0 million from $16.8 million in 1996 to $13.8 million in 1997. EBITDA in 1997 includes a non-recurring expense of $4.8 million related to the inn renewal program. Had such non-recurring expense not been incurred, EBITDA would have been $18.6 million in 1997. EBITDA is not intended to represent cash flow from operations as defined by generally accepted accounting principles, and such information should not be considered as an alternative to net income, cash flow from operations or any other measure of performance prescribed by generally accepted accounting principles. EBITDA is included herein because management believes that certain investors find it to be a useful tool for measuring the ability to service debt.
