Apple Hospitality REIT, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

Apple Hospitality REIT, Inc., formed in November 2007 as a Virginia corporation, together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Company”), is a self-advised real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that invests in income-producing real estate, primarily in the lodging sector, in the United States (“U.S.”). The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31. The Company has no foreign operations or assets, and its operating structure includes only one reportable segment. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Although the Company has interests in potential variable interest entities through its purchase commitments, it is not the primary beneficiary as the Company does not have any elements of power in the decision-making process of these entities; therefore, the Company does not consolidate the entities. As of September 30, 2023, the Company owned 220 hotels with an aggregate of 28,929 rooms located in 37 states as well as one property leased to third parties. The Company’s common shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the ticker symbol “APLE.”

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Form 10-K”). Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2023.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Net Income Per Common Share

Basic net income per common share is computed based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per common share is calculated after giving effect to all potential common shares that were dilutive and outstanding for the period. Basic and diluted net income per common share were the same for each of the periods presented.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company owned 220 hotels with an aggregate of 28,929 rooms located in 37 states. In May 2023, the Company entered into an operating lease for an initial 15-year term with a third-party hotel operator at its independent boutique hotel in New York, New York for all hotel operations of the hotel's 210 hotel rooms (“non-hotel property”). Lease revenue from this property is recorded in other revenue in the Company's consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. As

a result of the lease agreement, this property is excluded from the Company’s hotel and room counts effective May 2023 through the end of the lease term.

The Company leases all of its 220 hotels to its wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiary (or a subsidiary thereof) under a master hotel lease agreement.

Hotel Acquisitions

The Company completed the acquisition of one hotel during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, for a gross purchase price of $31.0 million. The hotel, which was purchased on June 30, 2023, is a 154-room Courtyard in Cleveland, Ohio, managed by Concord Hospitality Enterprises Company, LLC (“Concord”).

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company acquired two hotels, neither of which were acquired during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The following table sets forth the location, brand, manager, date acquired, number of rooms and gross purchase price, excluding transaction costs, for each hotel. All dollar amounts are in thousands.

In 2023, the Company utilized its available cash and borrowings under its Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below) to purchase the Cleveland, Ohio hotel. In 2022, the Company utilized its available cash on hand and a $50 million draw on its $575 million term loan facility (as defined below) to purchase both of the above-referenced hotels. The acquisitions of these hotel properties were accounted for as acquisitions of asset groups, whereby costs incurred to effect the acquisitions (which were not significant) were capitalized as part of the cost of the assets acquired. For the one hotel acquired during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the amount of revenue and operating income included in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations from the date of acquisition through September 30, 2023 was approximately $2.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively.

Purchase Contract Commitments

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had separate outstanding contracts for the potential purchase of six hotels as well as one free-standing parking garage for a total combined purchase price of approximately $359.0 million. Five of the seven properties under contract are existing. The Company completed the purchase of four of the existing properties, including two hotels and one free-standing parking garage in Salt Lake City, Utah and one hotel in Renton, Washington on October 11, 2023 and October 18, 2023, respectively (see Note 9 titled “Subsequent Events” for more information). The Company plans to complete the purchase of the one remaining existing property in the fourth quarter of 2023. The other two purchase contracts are for hotels under development, with the Madison, Wisconsin hotel currently planned to be completed and opened for business in mid-2024 and the Nashville, Tennessee hotel currently planned to be completed and opened for business in 2025, at which respective times the Company expects to complete the purchases of these hotels. Although the Company is working towards completing the acquisitions of the three remaining properties, in each case there are a number of conditions to closing that have not yet been satisfied, and there can be no assurance that closings on these properties will occur under the outstanding purchase contracts. If the sellers meet all of the conditions to closing, the Company is obligated to specifically perform under the applicable purchase contracts and acquire these properties.

These hotels are currently under development. The table shows the expected number of rooms upon hotel completion and the expected franchise brand. Assuming all conditions to closing are met, the purchase of the hotel in Madison, Wisconsin is expected to close in mid-2024 and the purchase of the Nashville, Tennessee hotel is expected to close in 2025. If the sellers meet all of the conditions to closing, the Company is obligated to specifically perform under the applicable purchase contracts. As these properties are under development, at this time, the sellers have not met all of the conditions to closing.
(2)
The Company completed the purchase of these properties in October 2023. See Note 9 for additional information concerning these four acquisitions.
(3)
This property is a free-standing parking garage which serves both the Courtyard and Hyatt House hotels in Salt Lake City, Utah and the surrounding area, however, it is not affiliated with any brand.

3. Dispositions

There were no dispositions during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company sold one hotel, a 55-room independent boutique hotel in Richmond, Virginia, to an unrelated party for a gross sales price of approximately $8.5 million, resulting in a gain on sale of approximately $1.8 million, net of transaction costs, which is included in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022. The hotel had a total carrying value of approximately $6.5 million at the time of the sale.

 

Excluding gains on sale of real estate, the Company’s consolidated statements of operations include operating income of approximately $0.1 million and $0.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, relating to the results of operations of the one hotel sold in 2022 noted above for the period of ownership. The sale of this property does not represent a strategic shift that has, or will have, a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results; therefore, the operating results for the period of ownership of this property are included in income from continuing operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. The net proceeds from the sale of the one hotel in 2022 were used for general corporate purposes.

The Company uses interest rate swaps to manage its interest rate risk on a portion of its variable-rate debt. Throughout the terms of these interest rate swaps, the Company pays a fixed rate of interest and receives a floating rate of interest equal to the annual Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) for a one-month term (“one-month SOFR”) plus a 0.10% SOFR spread adjustment. The swaps are designed to effectively fix the interest payments on variable-rate debt instruments. See Note 5 for more information on the interest rate swap agreements. The Company’s total fixed-rate and variable-rate debt, after giving effect to its interest rate swaps in effect as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, is set forth below.

Interest payments on the 2019 $85 million term loan facility are due monthly, and the interest rate, subject to certain exceptions, is equal to an annual rate of the one-month SOFR plus a 0.10% SOFR spread adjustment plus a margin ranging from 1.70% to 2.55%, depending upon the Company’s leverage ratio, as calculated under the terms of the credit agreement.

The Company may make voluntary prepayments, in whole or in part, at any time, subject to certain conditions, including make-whole provisions.

5. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Except as described below, the carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.

Debt

The Company estimates the fair value of its debt by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument at estimated market rates consistent with the maturity of a debt obligation with similar credit terms and credit characteristics, which are Level 3 inputs under the fair value hierarchy. Market rates take into consideration general market conditions and maturity. As of September 30, 2023, the carrying value and the estimated fair value of the Company’s debt were approximately $1.4 billion and $1.3 billion, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, the carrying value and estimated fair value of the Company’s debt were approximately $1.4 billion and $1.3 billion, respectively. Both the carrying value and the estimated fair value of the Company’s debt (as discussed above) are net of unamortized debt issuance costs related to term loans, senior notes and mortgage debt for each specific year.

Derivative Instruments

Currently, the Company uses interest rate swaps to manage its interest rate risk on variable-rate debt. Throughout the terms of these interest rate swaps, the Company pays a fixed rate of interest and receives a floating rate of interest equal to the one-month SOFR plus a 0.10% SOFR spread adjustment. The swaps are designed to effectively fix the interest payments on variable-rate debt

13


 

instruments. These swap instruments are recorded at fair value and, if in an asset position, are included in other assets, net, and, if in a liability position, are included in accounts payable and other liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The fair values of the Company’s interest rate swap agreements are determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash payments and the discounted expected variable cash receipts, which is considered a Level 2 measurement under the fair value hierarchy. The variable cash receipts are based on an expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves. The following table sets forth information for each of the Company’s interest rate swap agreements outstanding as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. All dollar amounts are in thousands.

The Company assesses, both at inception and on an ongoing basis, the effectiveness of its qualifying cash flow hedges. As of September 30, 2023, all of the 13 active interest rate swap agreements listed above were designated as cash flow hedges. The change in the fair value of the Company’s designated cash flow hedges is recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income, a component of shareholders’ equity in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

 

Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income will be reclassified to interest and other expense, net as interest payments are made or received on the Company’s variable-rate derivatives. The Company estimates that approximately $20.9 million of net unrealized gains included in accumulated other comprehensive income at September 30, 2023 will be reclassified as a decrease to interest and other expense, net within the next 12 months.

6. Related Parties

The Company has engaged in, and is expected to continue to engage in, transactions with related parties. These transactions cannot be construed to be at arm’s length, and the results of the Company’s operations may have been different if these transactions were conducted with non-related parties. There have been no changes to the contracts and relationships discussed in the 2022 Form 10-K. Below is a summary of the significant related party relationships in effect during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Glade M. Knight, Executive Chairman of the Company, owns Apple Realty Group, Inc. (“ARG”), which receives support services from the Company and reimburses the Company for the cost of these services as discussed below. Mr. Knight is also currently a partner and Chief Executive Officer of Energy 11 GP, LLC and Energy Resources 12 GP, LLC, which are the respective general partners of Energy 11, L.P. and Energy Resources 12, L.P., each of which receives support services from ARG.

The Company provides support services, including the use of the Company’s employees and corporate office, to ARG and is reimbursed by ARG for the cost of these services. Under this cost sharing structure, amounts reimbursed to the Company include both compensation for personnel and office related costs (including office rent, utilities, office supplies, etc.) used by ARG. The amounts reimbursed to the Company are based on the actual costs of the services and a good faith estimate of the proportionate amount of time incurred by the Company’s employees on behalf of ARG. Total reimbursed costs allocated by the Company to ARG for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 totaled approximately $0.8 million and $0.6 million, respectively, and are recorded as a reduction to general and administrative expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

As part of the cost sharing arrangement, certain day-to-day transactions may result in amounts due to or from the Company and ARG. To efficiently manage cash disbursements, the Company or ARG may make payments for the other company. Under this cash management process, each company may advance or defer up to $1 million at any time. Each quarter, any outstanding amounts are settled between the companies. This process allows each company to minimize its cash on hand and reduces the cost for each company. The amounts outstanding at any point in time are not significant to either of the companies. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, total amounts due from ARG for reimbursements under the cost sharing structure totaled approximately $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively, and are included in other assets, net in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Apple Air Holding, LLC, owns a Learjet used primarily for acquisition, asset management, renovation, investor, corporate and public relations and other business purposes. The aircraft is also leased to affiliates of the Company based on third-party rates. Lease activity was not significant during the reporting periods.

From time to time, the Company utilizes aircraft, owned by an entity which is owned by the Company’s Executive Chairman, for acquisition, asset management, renovation, investor, corporate and public relations and other business purposes, and reimburses this entity at third-party rates. Total costs incurred for the use of the aircraft during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 were less than $0.1 million and are included in general and administrative expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

7. Shareholders’ Equity

Distributions

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company paid distributions of $0.24 and $0.80, per common share, respectively, for a total of $54.8 million and $183.1 million, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company paid distributions of $0.17 and $0.38 per common share, respectively, for a total of $38.8 million and $86.8 million, respectively. Additionally, in September 2023, the Company declared a monthly cash distribution of $0.08 per common share, totaling $18.3 million, which was recorded as a payable as of September 30, 2023 and paid on October 16, 2023. In addition to the regular monthly cash distribution of $0.08 per common share for December 2022, the Board of Directors approved a special one-time distribution of $0.08 per common share for a combined distribution of $0.16 per common share, totaling $36.6 million, which was recorded as a payable as of December 31, 2022 and paid in January 2023. These accrued distributions were included in accounts payable and other liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Issuance of Shares

On August 12, 2020, the Company entered into an equity distribution agreement pursuant to which the Company may sell, from time to time, up to an aggregate of $300 million of its common shares under an at-the-market offering program (the “ATM Program”) under the Company’s prior shelf registration statement and the current shelf registration statement. Since inception of the ATM Program in August 2020 through September 30, 2023, the Company sold approximately 4.7 million common shares under its ATM Program at a weighted-average market sales price of approximately $16.26 per common share and received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $76.0 million and proceeds net of offering costs, which included $0.9 million of commissions, of approximately $75.1 million. The Company used the net proceeds from the sale of these shares (all during 2021) primarily to pay down borrowings under its then-existing $425 million revolving credit facility and used the corresponding increased availability under the $425 million revolving credit facility for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions of hotel properties. As of September 30, 2023, approximately $224.0 million remained available for issuance under the ATM Program. No shares were sold under the Company’s ATM Program during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The Company plans to use future net proceeds from the sale of shares under the ATM Program for general corporate purposes which may include, among other things, acquisitions of additional properties, the repayment of outstanding indebtedness, capital expenditures, improvement of properties in its portfolio and working capital. The Company may also use the net proceeds to acquire another REIT or other company that invests in income producing properties.

Share Repurchases

In May 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a one-year extension of its existing share repurchase program, authorizing share repurchases up to an aggregate of $338.7 million (the “Share Repurchase Program”). The Share Repurchase Program may be suspended or terminated at any time by the Company and will end in July 2024 if not terminated or extended earlier. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company purchased, under its Share Repurchase Program, approximately 0.5 million of its common shares at a weighted-average market purchase price of approximately $14.34 per common share for an aggregate purchase price, including commissions, of approximately $6.9 million. The shares were repurchased in open market transactions under the Share Repurchase Program, including pursuant to written trading plans intended to comply with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Repurchases under the Share Repurchase Program have been funded, and the Company intends to fund future repurchases, with cash on hand or availability under its unsecured credit facilities, subject to applicable restrictions under the Company’s unsecured credit facilities (if any). The timing of share repurchases and the number of common shares to be repurchased under the Share Repurchase Program will also depend upon prevailing market conditions, regulatory requirements and other factors. As of September 30, 2023, approximately $335.4 million remained available for purchase under the Share Repurchase Program.

8. Compensation Plans

The Company annually establishes an incentive plan for its executive management team. Under the incentive plan for 2023 (the “2023 Incentive Plan”), participants are eligible to receive incentive compensation based on the achievement of certain 2023 performance measures, with one-half (50%) of incentive compensation based on operational performance goals and metrics and one-half (50%) of incentive compensation based on shareholder return metrics. With respect to the shareholder return metrics, 75% of the target will be based on shareholder return relative to a peer group and 25% will be based on total shareholder return metrics over one-year, two-year, and three-year periods. With respect to the operational performance goals and metrics, 25% of the target will be based on modified funds from operations per share (as defined within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q), 25% of the target will be based on total revenues of the Company and 50% of the target will be based on operational performance goals, including management of capital structure; evaluation and pursuit of accretive transactions; management of labor costs and improvement of employee productivity; enhancement of environmental, social and governance reporting; and enhancement of internal business intelligence tools.

At September 30, 2023, the range of potential aggregate payouts under the 2023 Incentive Plan was $0 - $27.1 million. Based on performance through September 30, 2023, the Company has accrued approximately $14.9 million as a liability for potential executive incentive compensation payments under the 2023 Incentive Plan, which is included in accounts payable and other liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023. Compensation expense recognized by the Company under the 2023 Incentive Plan is included in general and administrative expenses in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations and totaled approximately $4.9 million and $14.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. Approximately 25% of target awards under the 2023 Incentive Plan, if any, will be paid in cash, and 75% will be issued in common shares under the Company’s 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan, approximately two-thirds of which will be unrestricted and one-third of which will vest in December 2024.

Under the incentive plan for 2022 (the “2022 Incentive Plan”), the Company recorded approximately $4.0 million and $12.0 million, respectively, in general and administrative expenses in its consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by use of statements that include phrases such as “may,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “project,” “target,” “goal,” “plan,” “should,” “will,” “predict,” “potential,” “outlook,” “strategy,” and similar expressions that convey the uncertainty of future events or outcomes. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance, or achievements of the Company to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

Such factors include, but are not limited to, the ability of the Company to effectively acquire and dispose of properties and redeploy proceeds; the anticipated timing and frequency of shareholder distributions; the ability of the Company to fund capital obligations; the ability of the Company to successfully integrate pending transactions and implement its operating strategy; changes in general political, economic and competitive conditions and specific market conditions (including the potential effects of inflation or a recessionary environment); reduced business and leisure travel due to geopolitical uncertainty, including terrorism, travel-related health concerns, including COVID-19 or other widespread outbreaks of infectious or contagious diseases in the U.S.; inclement weather conditions, including natural disasters such as hurricanes, earthquakes and wildfires; government shutdowns, airline strikes or other disruptions; adverse changes in the real estate and real estate capital markets; financing risks; changes in interest rates; litigation risks; regulatory proceedings or inquiries; and changes in laws or regulations or interpretations of current laws and regulations that impact the Company’s business, assets or classification as a REIT. Although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate, and therefore there can be no assurance that such statements included in this Quarterly Report will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the results or conditions described in such statements or the objectives and plans of the Company will be achieved. In addition, the Company’s qualification as a REIT involves the application of highly technical and complex provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Readers should carefully review the risk factors described in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including but not limited to those discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors” in the 2022 Form 10-K. Any forward-looking statement that the Company makes speaks only as of the date of this Quarterly Report. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements or cautionary factors, as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto, appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as the information contained in the 2022 Form 10-K.

Overview

The Company is a Virginia corporation that has elected to be treated as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. The Company is self-advised and invests in income-producing real estate, primarily in the lodging sector, in the U.S. As of September 30, 2023, the Company owned 220 hotels with an aggregate of 28,929 rooms located in urban, high-end suburban and developing markets throughout 37 states and one property leased to third parties. Substantially all of the Company’s hotels operate under Marriott or Hilton brands. The hotels are operated and managed under separate management agreements with 16 hotel management companies, none of which are affiliated with the Company. The Company’s common shares are listed on the NYSE under the ticker symbol “APLE.”

2023 Hotel Portfolio Activities

The Company continually monitors market conditions and attempts to maximize shareholder value by investing in properties that it believes provide superior value over the long term. Consistent with this strategy and the Company’s focus on investing in rooms-focused hotels, during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of an existing 154-room Courtyard in Cleveland, Ohio for a gross purchase price of $31.0 million, utilizing its available cash and borrowings under its Revolving Credit Facility.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had separate outstanding contracts for the potential purchase of six hotels as well as one free-standing parking garage for a total combined purchase price of approximately $359.0 million. Five of the seven properties under contract are existing. The Company completed the purchase of four of the existing properties, including two hotels and one free-standing parking garage in Salt Lake City, Utah and one hotel in Renton, Washington on October 11, 2023 and October 18, 2023, respectively. See Note 9 titled “Subsequent Events” in the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes

thereto, appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for more information. The Company plans to complete the purchase of the one remaining existing property in the fourth quarter of 2023. The other two purchase contracts are for hotels under development, with the Madison, Wisconsin hotel currently planned to be completed and opened for business in mid-2024 and the Nashville, Tennessee hotel currently planned to be completed and opened for business in 2025, at which respective times the Company expects to complete the purchases of these hotels. Although the Company is working towards completing the acquisitions of the three remaining properties, in each case there are a number of conditions to closing that have not yet been satisfied, and there can be no assurance that closings on these properties will occur under the outstanding purchase contracts. If the sellers meet all of the conditions to closing, the Company is obligated to specifically perform under the applicable purchase contracts and acquire these properties. The Company plans to utilize its available cash or borrowings under its unsecured credit facilities available at closing to purchase the properties under contract if closings occur.

For its existing portfolio, the Company monitors each property’s profitability, market conditions and capital requirements and attempts to maximize shareholder value by disposing of properties when it believes that superior value can be provided from the sale of the property. The Company did not dispose of any properties during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

New York Independent Boutique Hotel Lease

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company entered into an operating lease for an initial 15-year term with a third-party hotel operator at its independent boutique hotel in New York, New York for all hotel operations of the hotel's 210 hotel rooms. Lease revenue from this property is recorded in other revenue in the Company's consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. As a result of the lease agreement, this property is excluded from the Company’s hotel and room counts effective May 2023 and is considered a non-hotel property through the end of the lease term.

Hotel Operations

As of September 30, 2023, the Company owned 220 hotels with a total of 28,929 rooms as compared to 218 hotels with a total of 28,693 rooms as of September 30, 2022. Results of operations are included only for the period of ownership for hotels acquired or disposed of during the current reporting period and prior year. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company acquired one existing hotel on June 30, 2023 and did not dispose of any properties. During the same period of 2022, the Company sold one hotel and did not acquire any properties. Results of the hotel operations for the Company’s independent boutique hotel in New York, New York are included only for the period prior to the lease agreement becoming effective in May 2023.

In evaluating financial condition and operating performance, the most important indicators on which the Company focuses are revenue measurements, such as average occupancy, average daily rate (“ADR”) and revenue per available room (“RevPAR”), and expenses, such as hotel operating expenses, general and administrative expenses and other expenses described below. RevPAR and operating results may be impacted by regional and local economies as well as changes in lodging demand due to macroeconomic factors including inflationary pressures or a recessionary environment.

As discussed above, hotel performance is impacted by many factors, including the economic conditions in the U.S. as well as each individual locality. The Company’s Same Store Hotels revenue and operating results improved during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, which is consistent with the overall lodging industry. Hotel occupancy was negatively impacted in many markets by the Omicron variant of COVID-19 during the first quarter of 2022, contributing to an increase of the Company’s Same Store Hotels RevPAR of approximately 8.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022.

Revenues

The Company’s principal source of revenue is hotel revenue consisting of room, food and beverage, and other related revenue. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company had total revenue of $358.3 million and $341.2 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company had total revenue of $1.0 billion and $939.3 million, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, Comparable Hotels achieved combined average occupancy of 77.1% and 75.7%, ADR of $159.36 and $157.65 and RevPAR of $122.91 and $119.31. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, Comparable Hotels achieved combined average occupancy of 75.8% and 73.5%, ADR of $157.54 and $149.98 and RevPAR of $119.34 and $110.23. ADR is calculated as room revenue divided by the number of rooms sold, and RevPAR is calculated as occupancy multiplied by ADR.

Compared to the same periods in 2022, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company experienced increases in ADR and occupancy, resulting in increases of 3.0% and 8.3%, respectively, in RevPAR for Comparable Hotels. Revenue growth in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the same periods of 2022, was led by continued strength in leisure transient and small group demand, with increased demand from corporate business. Additionally, occupancy during the first quarter of 2022 was negatively impacted in many markets by the Omicron variant of COVID-19. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company’s suburban markets continued to see strong demand with urban markets recovering more meaningfully as compared to the same periods in 2022. The Company expects revenue trends to continue, however, future year-over-year revenue growth will likely be at a lower rate given the favorable first nine months of the year comparison between 2023 and 2022 due, in large part, to the Omicron variant of COVID-19 negatively impacting the first quarter of 2022. Furthermore, future revenues could be negatively impacted by, among other things, historical seasonal trends, deterioration of consumer sentiment, a recessionary macroeconomic environment or inflationary pressures.

Hotel Operating Expense

Hotel operating expense consists of direct room operating expense, hotel administrative expense, sales and marketing expense, utilities expense, repair and maintenance expense, franchise fees and management fees. Hotel operating expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 totaled $203.7 million and $193.1 million, respectively, or 56.9% and 56.6% of total revenue for the respective periods, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 totaled $589.4 million and $529.6 million, respectively, or 57.1% and 56.4% of total revenue for the respective periods, which is consistent with the increases in Comparable Hotels hotel operating expense as a percentage of revenue for the same periods. The increase in hotel operating expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the same periods in 2022, was due to increased labor, repairs and maintenance and utility costs driven by increased staff and inflationary pressures throughout the overall economy. Occupancy increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the same period of 2022, in part due to negative impacts from the Omicron variant of COVID-19 throughout most markets during the first quarter of 2022. Adding staff to meet increased demand has been challenging, and the Company’s hotels have often done so at higher wage rates or with more expensive contract labor as compared to 2022. Likewise, broader inflationary pressures throughout the overall economy and global tensions have driven shortages and cost increases for materials and supplies such as food and equipment. The Company continues to work with its management companies to realize operational efficiencies and mitigate the impact of cost pressures resulting from inflation and staffing challenges. The Company will continue to evaluate and work with its management companies to implement adjustments to the hotel operating model in response to continued changes in the operating environment and guest preferences, including evaluating staffing levels at its hotels to maximize efficiency.

Property Taxes, Insurance and Other Expense

Property taxes, insurance and other expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was $21.7 million and $19.1 million, respectively, or 6.1% and 5.6% of total revenue for the respective periods. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, property taxes, insurance and other expense totaled $61.3 million and $56.5 million, respectively, or 5.9% and 6.0% of total revenue for the respective periods. The increases in property taxes, insurance, and other expense were primarily due to increases in insurance premiums and increases in property taxes in certain locations due to the reassessment of property values by localities related to the improved economy, partially offset by decreases at other locations due to successful appeals of tax assessments. The Company will continue to aggressively appeal tax assessments in certain jurisdictions in an attempt to minimize tax increases, as warranted.

General and Administrative Expense

General and administrative expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was $11.1 million and $10.3 million, respectively, or 3.1% and 3.0% of total revenue for the respective periods. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, general and administrative expense was $34.6 million and $30.2 million, respectively, or 3.4% and 3.2% of total revenue for the respective periods. The principal components of general and administrative expense are payroll and related benefit costs, executive incentive compensation, legal fees, accounting fees and reporting expenses. The increase in general and administrative expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same periods in 2022, was primarily due to increased accruals for anticipated performance under the Company’s executive incentive compensation plan as well as increased payroll and related benefit costs.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense

Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was $45.5 million and $45.1 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, depreciation and amortization expense was $137.4 million and $135.8 million, respectively. Depreciation and amortization expense primarily represents expense of the Company’s hotel buildings and related improvements, and associated personal property (furniture, fixtures, and equipment) for the respective periods owned. The increases of approximately $0.4 million and $1.6 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same periods in 2022, were primarily due to the acquisitions of one hotel in the second quarter of 2023 and two hotels in the fourth quarter of 2022, as well as renovations completed throughout 2022 and 2023, partially offset by the sale of one hotel in the third quarter of 2022.

Interest and Other Expense, net

Interest and other expense, net for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was $17.5 million and $14.9 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, interest and other expense, net was $51.0 million and $44.8 million, respectively. Interest and other expense, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, is net of approximately $0.7 million and $0.5 million, respectively, of interest capitalized associated with renovation projects.

Interest expense related to the Company’s debt instruments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased compared to the same periods of 2022 as a result of higher average borrowings associated with variable-rate debt and higher average interest rates on the Company's variable-rate debt due to the high inflationary environment within the current economy. The Company anticipates interest expense for the remainder of 2023 will be greater than the interest expense for the same period of 2022 due to higher average borrowings associated with variable-rate debt and higher market interest rates.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was $0.3 million and $1.3 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, income tax expense was $0.9 million and $1.7 million, respectively. The decrease is primarily due to state income taxes that were higher than normal in several states in 2022 as a result of temporary limitations placed on the application of prior net operating losses.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company considers the following non-GAAP financial measures useful to investors as key supplemental measures of its operating performance: Funds from Operations (“FFO”), Modified Funds from Operations (“MFFO”), Earnings Before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”), Earnings Before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization for Real Estate (“EBITDAre”), Adjusted EBITDAre (“Adjusted EBITDAre”) and Adjusted Hotel EBITDA. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered along with, but not as alternatives to, net income (loss), cash flow from operations or any other operating GAAP measure. FFO, MFFO, EBITDA, EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDAre and Adjusted Hotel EBITDA are not necessarily indicative of funds available to fund the Company’s cash needs, including its ability to make cash distributions. Although FFO, MFFO, EBITDA, EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDAre and Adjusted Hotel EBITDA, as calculated by the Company, may not be comparable to FFO, MFFO, EBITDA, EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDAre and Adjusted Hotel EBITDA, as reported by other companies that do not define such terms exactly as the Company defines such terms, the Company believes these supplemental measures are useful to investors when comparing the Company’s results between periods and with other REITs.

23


 

FFO and MFFO

The Company calculates and presents FFO in accordance with standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”), which defines FFO as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains and losses from the sale of certain real estate assets (including gains and losses from change in control), extraordinary items as defined by GAAP, and the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles, plus real estate related depreciation, amortization and impairments, and adjustments for unconsolidated affiliates. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, most real estate industry investors consider FFO to be helpful in evaluating a real estate company’s operations. The Company further believes that by excluding the effects of these items, FFO is useful to investors in comparing its operating performance between periods and between REITs that report FFO using the Nareit definition. FFO as presented by the Company is applicable only to its common shareholders, but does not represent an amount that accrues directly to common shareholders.

The Company calculates MFFO by further adjusting FFO for the exclusion of amortization of finance ground lease assets, amortization of favorable and unfavorable operating leases, net and non-cash straight-line operating ground lease expense, as these expenses do not reflect the underlying performance of the related hotels. The Company presents MFFO when evaluating its performance because it believes that it provides further useful supplemental information to investors regarding its ongoing operating performance.

The following table reconciles the Company’s GAAP net income to FFO and MFFO for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 (in thousands):

EBITDA, EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDAre and Adjusted Hotel EBITDA

EBITDA is a commonly used measure of performance in many industries and is defined as net income (loss) excluding interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. The Company believes EBITDA is useful to investors because it helps the Company and its investors evaluate the ongoing operating performance of the Company by removing the impact of its capital structure (primarily interest expense) and its asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization). In addition, certain covenants included in the agreements governing the Company’s indebtedness use EBITDA, as defined in the specific credit agreement, as a measure of financial compliance.

In addition to EBITDA, the Company also calculates and presents EBITDAre in accordance with standards established by Nareit, which defines EBITDAre as EBITDA, excluding gains and losses from the sale of certain real estate assets (including gains and losses from change in control), plus real estate related impairments, and adjustments to reflect the entity’s share of EBITDAre of unconsolidated affiliates. The Company presents EBITDAre because it believes that it provides further useful information to investors in comparing its operating performance between periods and between REITs that report EBITDAre using the Nareit definition.

The Company also considers the exclusion of non-cash straight-line operating ground lease expense from EBITDAre useful, as this expense does not reflect the underlying performance of the related hotels (Adjusted EBITDAre).

The Company further excludes actual corporate-level general and administrative expense for the Company as well as Adjusted EBITDAre from its non-hotel property from Adjusted EBITDAre (Adjusted Hotel EBITDA) to isolate property-level operational performance over which the Company’s hotel operators have direct control. The Company believes Adjusted Hotel EBITDA provides useful supplemental information to investors regarding operating performance and it is used by management to measure the performance of the Company’s hotels and effectiveness of the operators of the hotels.

Related Parties

The Company has engaged in, and is expected to continue to engage in, transactions with related parties. These transactions cannot be construed to be at arm’s length, and the results of the Company’s operations may be different if these transactions were conducted with non-related parties. See Note 6 titled “Related Parties” in the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto, appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for additional information concerning the Company’s related party transactions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Capital Resources

The Company’s principal short term sources of liquidity are the operating cash flows generated from the Company’s properties and availability under its Revolving Credit Facility. Over the long term, the Company may receive proceeds from strategic additional secured and unsecured debt financing, dispositions of its hotel properties and offerings of the Company’s common shares, including pursuant to the ATM Program. Macroeconomic pressures, including inflation, increases in interest rates and general market uncertainty, could impact the Company’s ability to raise debt or equity capital to fund long-term liquidity requirements in a cost-effective manner.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had $1.4 billion of total outstanding debt consisting of $285.2 million of mortgage debt and $1.1 billion outstanding under its unsecured credit facilities, excluding unamortized debt issuance costs and fair value

31


 

adjustments. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had available corporate cash on hand of approximately $35.4 million, and unused borrowing capacity under its Revolving Credit Facility of approximately $650 million.

The credit agreements governing the unsecured credit facilities contain mandatory prepayment requirements, customary affirmative and negative covenants and events of default. The credit agreements require that the Company comply with various covenants, which include, among others, a minimum tangible net worth, maximum debt limits, minimum interest and fixed charge coverage ratios, and restrictions on certain investments. The Company was in compliance with the applicable covenants as of September 30, 2023.

See Note 4 titled “Debt” in the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto, appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for a description of the Company’s debt agreements as of September 30, 2023.

The Company has a universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-262915) that was automatically effective upon filing on February 23, 2022. The Company may offer an indeterminate number or amount, as the case may be, of (1) common shares, no par value per share; (2) preferred shares, no par value per share; (3) depository shares representing the Company’s preferred shares; (4) warrants exercisable for the Company’s common shares, preferred shares or depository shares representing preferred shares; (5) rights to purchase common shares; and (6) unsecured senior or subordinate debt securities, all of which may be issued from time to time on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. Future offerings will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by the Company, including market conditions, the trading price of the Company’s common shares and opportunities for uses of any proceeds.

On August 12, 2020, the Company entered into an equity distribution agreement pursuant to which the Company may sell, from time to time, up to an aggregate of $300 million of its common shares under the ATM Program under the Company’s prior shelf registration statement and the current shelf registration statement described above. Since inception of the ATM Program in August 2020 through September 30, 2023, the Company sold approximately 4.7 million common shares under its ATM Program at a weighted-average market sales price of approximately $16.26 per common share and received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $76.0 million and proceeds net of offering costs, which included $0.9 million of commissions, of approximately $75.1 million. The Company used the net proceeds from the sale of these shares (all during 2021) primarily to pay down borrowings under its then-existing $425 million revolving credit facility and used the corresponding increased availability under the $425 million revolving credit facility for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions of hotel properties. As of September 30, 2023, approximately $224.0 million remained available for issuance under the ATM Program. No shares were sold under the Company’s ATM Program during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The Company plans to use future net proceeds from the sale of shares under the ATM Program for general corporate purposes which may include, among other things, acquisitions of additional properties, the repayment of outstanding indebtedness, capital expenditures, improvement of properties in its portfolio and working capital. The Company may also use the net proceeds to acquire another REIT or other company that invests in income producing properties. Future offerings will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by the Company, including market conditions, the trading price of the Company’s common shares and opportunities for uses of any proceeds.

Capital Uses

The Company anticipates that cash flow from operations, availability under its Revolving Credit Facility, additional borrowings, and proceeds from hotel dispositions and equity offerings will be adequate to meet its anticipated short-term and long-term liquidity requirements, including required distributions to shareholders, share repurchases, capital improvements, debt service, hotel acquisitions, lease commitments, and cash management activities.

Distributions

The Company generally must distribute annually at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, subject to certain adjustments and excluding any net capital gain, in order to maintain its REIT status. On September 19, 2023, the Company declared a monthly cash distribution of $0.08 per common share, paid on October 16, 2023, to shareholders of record as of September 29, 2023. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company paid distributions of $0.24 and $0.80 per common share, respectively, for a total of $54.8 million and $183.1 million, respectively. Subsequent to quarter end, on October 19, 2023, the Company declared a monthly cash distribution of $0.08 per common share, payable on November 15, 2023 to shareholders of record as of October 31, 2023.

The Company, as it has done historically due to seasonality, may use its Revolving Credit Facility to maintain the consistency of distributions, taking into consideration any acquisitions, dispositions, capital improvements and economic cycles. While management currently expects monthly cash distributions to continue at $0.08 per common share, any distribution will be subject to approval of the Company’s Board of Directors and there can be no assurance of the classification, timing or duration of distributions at any particular distribution rate. The Board of Directors monitors the Company’s distribution rate relative to the performance of its hotels on an ongoing basis and may make adjustments to the distribution rate as determined to be prudent in relation to other cash requirements of

32


 

the Company or to the extent required to maintain REIT status. If cash flows from operations and the Revolving Credit Facility are not adequate to meet liquidity requirements, the Company may utilize additional financing sources to make distributions. Although the Company has relatively low levels of debt, there can be no assurance it will be successful with this strategy, and it may need to reduce its distributions to minimum levels required to maintain its qualification as a real estate investment trust. If the Company were unable to extend its maturing debt in future periods or if it were to default on its debt, it may be unable to make distributions.

Share Repurchases

In May 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a one-year extension of its existing share repurchase program, authorizing share repurchases up to an aggregate of $338.7 million. The Share Repurchase Program may be suspended or terminated at any time by the Company and will end in July 2024 if not terminated or extended earlier. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company purchased, under its Share Repurchase Program, approximately 0.5 million of its common shares at a weighted-average market purchase price of approximately $14.34 per common share for an aggregate purchase price, including commissions, of approximately $6.9 million. The shares were repurchased in open market transactions under the Share Repurchase Program, including pursuant to written trading plans intended to comply with Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act. Repurchases under the Share Repurchase Program have been funded, and the Company intends to fund future repurchases, with cash on hand or availability under its unsecured credit facilities, subject to applicable restrictions under the Company’s unsecured credit facilities (if any). The timing of share repurchases and the number of common shares to be repurchased under the Share Repurchase Program will also depend upon prevailing market conditions, regulatory requirements and other factors. As of September 30, 2023, approximately $335.4 million remained available for purchase under the Share Repurchase Program.

Capital Improvements

Management routinely monitors the condition and operations of its hotels and plans renovations and other improvements as it deems prudent. The Company is committed to maintaining and enhancing each property’s competitive position in its market. The Company has invested in and plans to continue to reinvest in its hotels. Under certain loan and management agreements, the Company is required to place in escrow funds for the repair, replacement and refurbishing of furniture, fixtures, and equipment, based on a percentage of gross revenues, provided that such amount may be used for the Company’s capital expenditures with respect to the hotels. As of September 30, 2023, the Company held approximately $30.3 million in reserves related to these properties. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company invested approximately $42.0 million in capital expenditures. The Company anticipates spending approximately $70 million to $80 million during 2023, which includes various renovation projects for approximately 20 to 25 properties, however, inflationary pressures or supply chain shortages, among other issues, may result in increased costs and delays for anticipated projects. The Company does not currently have any existing or planned projects for new property development.

Upcoming Debt Maturities and Debt Service Payments

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had approximately $175.4 million of principal and interest payments due on its debt over the next 12 months. Included in this total is an $85.0 million term loan and a mortgage loan of approximately $20.5 million, both maturing in the third quarter of 2024. The Company plans to pay outstanding amounts and service payments due upon the upcoming debt maturity dates using funds from operations, borrowings under its Revolving Credit Facility and/or proceeds from new financing, refinancing or loan extensions. Interest expense related to the Company’s unsecured credit facilities is expected to be higher over the next 12 months than it was during the previous 12 months as a result of increases in market interest rates on its variable-rate debt and increased borrowings on its Revolving Credit Facility. See Note 4 titled “Debt” in the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto, appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more detail regarding future maturities of the Company’s debt instruments as of September 30, 2023.

Purchase Contract Commitments

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had separate outstanding contracts for the potential purchase of six hotels as well as one free-standing parking garage for a total combined purchase price of approximately $359.0 million. Five of the seven properties under contract are existing. The Company completed the purchase of four of the existing properties, including two hotels and one free-standing parking garage in Salt Lake City, Utah and one hotel in Renton, Washington on October 11, 2023 and October 18, 2023, respectively. See Note 9 titled “Subsequent Events” in the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto, appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for more information. The Company plans to complete the purchase of the one remaining existing property in the fourth quarter of 2023. The other two purchase contracts are for hotels under development, with the Madison, Wisconsin hotel currently planned to be completed and opened for business in mid-2024 and the Nashville, Tennessee hotel currently planned to be completed and opened for business in 2025, at which respective times the Company expects to complete the purchases of these hotels. Although the Company is working towards completing the acquisitions of the three remaining properties, in each case there are a number of conditions to closing that have not yet been satisfied, and there can be no assurance that closings on these properties will occur under the outstanding purchase contracts. If the sellers meet all of the

33


 

conditions to closing, the Company is obligated to specifically perform under the applicable purchase contracts and acquire these properties. The Company plans to utilize its available cash or borrowings under its unsecured credit facilities available at closing to purchase the hotels under contract if closings occur.

Cash Management Activities

As part of the cost sharing arrangements discussed in Note 6, titled “Related Parties” in the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto, appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, certain day-to-day transactions may result in amounts due to or from the Company and ARG. To efficiently manage cash disbursements, the Company or ARG may make payments for the other company. Under the cash management process, each company may advance or defer up to $1 million at any time. Each quarter, any outstanding amounts are settled between the companies. This process allows each company to minimize its cash on hand and reduces the cost for each company. The amounts outstanding at any point in time are not significant to either of the companies.

Business Interruption

Being in the real estate industry, the Company is exposed to natural disasters on both a local and national scale. Although management believes the Company has adequate insurance to cover this exposure, there can be no assurance that such events will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Seasonality

The hotel industry historically has been seasonal in nature. Seasonal variations in occupancy at the Company’s hotels may cause quarterly fluctuations in its revenues. Generally, occupancy rates and hotel revenues for the Company’s hotels are greater in the second and third quarters than in the first and fourth quarters. However, due to the effects of COVID-19, these typical seasonal patterns have been disrupted in recent years. In the first quarter of 2022, the Company experienced lower than expected operating results due to the Omicron variant of COVID-19 along with the typical seasonal decrease associated with the first quarter. Since that time, the seasonal variability has recovered to its pre-COVID-19 trend. To the extent that cash flow from operations is insufficient during any quarter due to temporary or seasonal fluctuations in revenue, the Company expects to utilize cash on hand or available financing sources to meet cash requirements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the Company’s financial statements, the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods and the related disclosures in the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto. The Company has discussed those policies and estimates that it believes are critical and require the use of complex judgment in their application in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 21, 2023. There have been no material changes to the Company’s critical accounting policies or the methods or assumptions applied.

Subsequent Events

On October 11, 2023, the Company completed the purchase of two existing hotels and an existing free-standing parking garage in Salt Lake City, Utah, including a 175-room Courtyard and a 159-room Hyatt House, for a combined gross purchase price of approximately $91.5 million. The Company utilized its available cash on hand and borrowings under its Revolving Credit Facility to purchase the properties.

On October 16, 2023, the Company paid approximately $18.3 million, or $0.08 per common share, in distributions to shareholders of record as of September 29, 2023.

On October 18, 2023, the Company completed the purchase of the existing 146-room Residence Inn in Renton, Washington for a total gross purchase price of $55.5 million. The Company utilized its available cash on hand and borrowings under its Revolving Credit Facility to purchase the hotel.

On October 19, 2023, the Company declared a monthly cash distribution of $0.08 per common share. The distribution is payable on November 15, 2023, to shareholders of record as of October 31, 2023.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

As of September 30, 2023, the Company’s financial instruments were not exposed to significant market risk due to foreign currency exchange risk, commodity price risk or equity price risk. However, the Company is exposed to interest rate risk due to possible changes in short term interest rates as it invests its cash or borrows on its Revolving Credit Facility and due to the portion of its variable-rate term debt that is not fixed by interest rate swaps. As of September 30, 2023, after giving effect to interest rate swaps, as described below, approximately $275.0 million, or approximately 20% of the Company’s total debt outstanding, was subject to variable interest rates. Based on the Company’s variable-rate debt outstanding as of September 30, 2023, every 100 basis points change in interest rates will impact the Company’s annual net income by approximately $2.8 million, all other factors remaining the same. With the exception of interest rate swap transactions, the Company has not engaged in transactions in derivative financial instruments or derivative commodity instruments.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company’s variable-rate debt consisted of its unsecured credit facilities, including borrowings outstanding under its Revolving Credit Facility and $1.0 billion of term loans. Currently, the Company uses interest rate swaps to manage its interest rate risk on a portion of its variable-rate debt. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had 13 interest rate swap agreements that effectively fix the interest payments on approximately $695.0 million of the Company’s variable-rate debt outstanding with swap maturity dates ranging from January 2024 to December 2029. Under the terms of all of the Company’s interest rate swaps, the Company pays a fixed rate of interest and receives a floating rate of interest equal to the annual rate of the one-month SOFR plus a 0.10% SOFR spread adjustment. See Note 5 titled “Fair Value of Financial Instruments” in the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto, appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for a description of the Company’s interest rate swaps as of September 30, 2023.

In addition to its variable-rate debt and interest rate swaps discussed above, the Company has assumed or originated fixed interest rate mortgages payable to lenders under permanent financing arrangements as well as two fixed-rate senior notes facilities totaling $125 million. The following table summarizes the annual maturities and average interest rates of the Company’s mortgage debt and borrowings outstanding under its unsecured credit facilities at September 30, 2023. All dollar amounts are in thousands.
