The RMR Group Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)


Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The RMR Group Inc., or RMR Inc., is a holding company and substantially all of its business is conducted by its majority owned subsidiary, The RMR Group LLC, or RMR LLC. RMR Inc. is a Maryland corporation and RMR LLC is a Maryland limited liability company. RMR Inc. serves as the sole managing member of RMR LLC and, in that capacity, operates and controls the business and affairs of RMR LLC. In these financial statements, unless otherwise indicated, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to RMR Inc. and its direct and indirect subsidiaries, including RMR LLC.
As of December 31, 2022, RMR Inc. owned 15,604,980 class A membership units of RMR LLC, or Class A Units, and 1,000,000 class B membership units of RMR LLC, or Class B Units. The aggregate RMR LLC membership units RMR Inc. owns represented 52.5% of the economic interest of RMR LLC as of December 31, 2022. We refer to economic interest as the right of a holder of a Class A Unit or Class B Unit to share in distributions made by RMR LLC and, upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of RMR LLC, to share in the assets of RMR LLC after payments to creditors. A wholly owned subsidiary of ABP Trust, a Maryland statutory trust, owns 15,000,000 redeemable Class A Units, representing 47.5% of the economic interest of RMR LLC as of December 31, 2022, which is presented as a noncontrolling interest within the condensed consolidated financial statements. Adam D. Portnoy, the Chair of our Board and one of our Managing Directors, is the sole trustee of ABP Trust, and owns all of ABP Trust’s voting securities.
RMR LLC was founded in 1986 to manage public investments in real estate and, as of December 31, 2022, managed a diverse portfolio of real estate and real estate related businesses. RMR LLC provides management services to four publicly traded equity real estate investment trusts, or REITs: Diversified Healthcare Trust, or DHC, which owns medical office and life science properties, senior living communities and wellness centers; Industrial Logistics Properties Trust, or ILPT, which owns and leases industrial and logistics properties; Office Properties Income Trust, or OPI, which owns office properties primarily leased to single tenants and those with high quality credit characteristics, including the government; and Service Properties Trust, or SVC, which owns a diverse portfolio of hotels and net lease service and necessity-based retail properties. DHC, ILPT, OPI and SVC are collectively referred to as the Managed Equity REITs.
RMR LLC’s wholly owned subsidiary, Tremont Realty Capital LLC, or Tremont, an investment adviser registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, provides advisory services for Seven Hills Realty Trust, or SEVN. SEVN is a publicly traded mortgage REIT that focuses on originating and investing in first mortgage loans secured by middle market and transitional commercial real estate. Tremont has in the past and may in the future manage additional accounts that invest in commercial real estate debt. Tremont may also act as a transaction broker for non-investment advisory clients for negotiated fees, which we refer to as the Tremont business.
RMR LLC also provides management services to two publicly traded real estate operating companies: AlerisLife Inc., or ALR, a publicly traded operator of senior living communities, many of which are owned by DHC, and TravelCenters of America Inc., or TA, an operator and franchisor of travel centers primarily along the U.S. interstate highway system, many of which are owned by SVC, and standalone truck service facilities.
The Managed Equity REITs, SEVN, ALR and TA are collectively referred to as the Perpetual Capital clients.
In addition, RMR LLC provides management services to private capital vehicles, including ABP Trust, Sonesta International Hotels Corporation, or Sonesta, a privately owned franchisor and operator of hotels, resorts and cruise ships in the United States, Latin America, the Caribbean and the Middle East, and many of the U.S. hotels that Sonesta operates are owned by SVC, and other private entities that own commercial real estate, of which certain of our Managed Equity REITs own minority equity interests. These clients are collectively referred to as the Private Capital clients.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited. Certain information and disclosures required by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or GAAP, for complete financial statements have been condensed or omitted. We believe the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. However, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022, or our 2022 Annual Report. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim period have been included. All intercompany transactions and balances with or among our consolidated subsidiaries have been eliminated. Our operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)
We report our results in a single reportable segment, which reflects how our chief operating decision maker allocates resources and evaluates our financial results. Preparation of these financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires our management to make certain estimates and assumptions that may affect the amounts reported in these condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes. The actual results could differ from these estimates.
Note 2. Revenue Recognition
Revenues from services that we provide are recognized as earned over time as the services provided represent performance obligations that are satisfied over time.
Management Agreements with the Managed Equity REITs
We are party to a business management and a property management agreement with each Managed Equity REIT. The following is a summary of the fees we earn pursuant to our business management agreements with the Managed Equity REITs. For a summary of the fees we earn pursuant to our property management agreements with the Managed Equity REITs, please see Property Management Agreements, below.
Base Business Management Fees — We earn annual base business management fees from the Managed Equity REITs by providing continuous services pursuant to business management agreements equal to the lesser of:
•the sum of (a) 0.5% of the historical cost of transferred real estate assets, if any, as defined in the applicable business management agreement, plus (b) 0.7% of the average invested capital (exclusive of the transferred real estate assets), as defined in the applicable business management agreement, up to $250,000, plus (c) 0.5% of the average invested capital exceeding $250,000; and
•the sum of (a) 0.7% of the average market capitalization, as defined in the applicable business management agreement, up to $250,000, plus (b) 0.5% of the average market capitalization exceeding $250,000.
The foregoing base business management fees are paid in cash monthly in arrears. 
We earned aggregate base business management fees from the Managed Equity REITs of $21,373 and $23,654 for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Incentive Business Management Fees — We also may earn annual incentive business management fees from the Managed Equity REITs under the business management agreements. The incentive business management fees, which are payable in cash, are contingent performance based fees recognized only when earned at the end of each respective measurement period. Incentive business management fees are excluded from the transaction price until it becomes probable that there will not be a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized.
The incentive business management fees are calculated for each Managed Equity REIT as 12.0% of the product of (a) the equity market capitalization of the Managed Equity REIT, as defined in the applicable business management agreement, on the last trading day of the year immediately prior to the relevant measurement period and (b) the amount, expressed as a percentage, by which the Managed Equity REIT’s total return per share, as defined in the applicable business management agreement, exceeded the applicable benchmark total return per share, as defined in the applicable business management agreement, of a specified REIT index identified in the applicable business management agreement for the measurement period, as adjusted for net share issuances during the period and subject to caps on the values of the incentive fees. The measurement period for the annual incentive business management fees is defined as the three year period ending on December 31 of the year for which such fee is being calculated.
We did not earn incentive business management fees from the Managed Equity REITs for calendar years 2022 or 2021.
Other Management Agreements
We earn management fees by providing continuous services pursuant to the management agreements with ALR, TA and Sonesta equal to 0.6% of: (i) in the case of ALR, ALR’s revenues from all sources reportable under GAAP, less any revenues reportable by ALR with respect to properties for which it provides management services, plus the gross revenues at those properties determined in accordance with GAAP; (ii) in the case of TA, the sum of TA’s gross fuel margin, as defined in the applicable agreement, plus TA’s total nonfuel revenues; and (iii) in the case of Sonesta, Sonesta’s revenues from all sources

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)
reportable under GAAP, less any revenues reportable by Sonesta with respect to hotels for which it provides management services, plus the gross revenues at those hotels determined in accordance with GAAP. These management fees are estimated and payable in cash monthly in advance.
We also earn management fees from certain Private Capital clients based on a percentage of average invested capital, as defined in the applicable management agreements. These management fees are payable in cash monthly in arrears.
We earned aggregate fees from ALR, TA and the Private Capital clients of $10,578 and $7,971 for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Property Management Agreements
We earn property management fees by providing continuous services pursuant to property management agreements with the Managed Equity REITs and certain Private Capital clients. We generally earn fees under these agreements equal to 3.0% of gross collected rents. Also, under the terms of the property management agreements, we receive additional fees for construction supervision services up to 5.0% of the cost of such construction.
For the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, we earned aggregate property management fees of $16,597 and $13,219, respectively, including construction supervision fees of $5,686 and $3,233, respectively.
Management Agreements with Advisory Clients
Tremont is primarily compensated pursuant to its management agreement with SEVN at an annual rate of 1.5% of equity, as defined in the applicable agreement. We earned advisory services revenue of $1,091 and $1,118 for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Tremont may also earn an incentive fee under its management agreement with SEVN equal to the difference between: (a) the product of (i) 20% and (ii) the difference between (A) core earnings, as defined in the agreement, for the most recent 12 month period (or such lesser number of completed calendar quarters, if applicable), including the calendar quarter (or part thereof) for which the calculation of the incentive fee is being made, and (B) the product of (1) equity in the most recent 12 month period (or such lesser number of completed calendar quarters, if applicable), including the calendar quarter (or part thereof) for which the calculation of the incentive fee is being made, and (2) 7% per year and (b) the sum of any incentive fees paid to Tremont with respect to the first three calendar quarters of the most recent 12 month period (or such lesser number of completed calendar quarters preceding the applicable period, if applicable). No incentive fee shall be payable with respect to any calendar quarter unless core earnings for the 12 most recently completed calendar quarters in the aggregate is greater than zero. The incentive fee may not be less than zero. Tremont did not earn incentive fees from SEVN for the three months ended December 31, 2022 or 2021.
The Tremont business earns between 0.5% and 1.0% of the aggregate principal amounts of any loans it brokers. The Tremont business earned fees for such brokerage services of zero and $53 for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which amounts are included in management services revenue in our condensed consolidated statements of income.
Reimbursable Costs
Reimbursable Compensation and Benefits — Reimbursable compensation and benefits include reimbursements, at cost, that arise primarily from services our employees provide pursuant to our property management agreements at the properties of our clients. A significant portion of these compensation and benefits are charged or passed through to and paid by tenants of our clients. We recognize the revenue for reimbursements when we incur the related reimbursable compensation and benefits expense on behalf of our clients.
Reimbursable Equity Based Compensation — Reimbursable equity based compensation includes awards of common shares by our clients directly to certain of our officers and employees in connection with the provision of management services to those clients. The revenue in respect of each award is based on the fair value as of the award date for those shares that have vested, with subsequent changes in the fair value of the unvested awards being recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of income over the requisite service periods. We record an equal, offsetting amount as equity based compensation expense for the value of these awards.

Other Reimbursable Expenses — Other reimbursable expenses include reimbursements that arise from services we provide pursuant to our property management agreements, which include third party costs related to matters such as maintenance and repairs, development costs, security and cleaning services, a significant portion of which are charged or passed through to and paid by tenants of our clients.
Note 3. Equity Method Investments
Seven Hills Realty Trust
As of December 31, 2022, Tremont owned 1,708,058, or approximately 11.6%, of SEVN’s outstanding common shares. We account for our investment in SEVN using the equity method of accounting because we are deemed to exert significant influence, but not control, over SEVN’s most significant activities. We elected the fair value option to account for our equity method investment in SEVN and determine fair value using the closing price of SEVN’s common shares as of the end of the period, which is a Level 1 fair value input. The aggregate market value of our investment in SEVN at December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, based on quoted market prices, was $15,526 and $15,577, respectively. The unrealized gain in our condensed consolidated statements of income related to our investment in SEVN was $376 and $58 for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. We received distributions from SEVN of $427 and zero for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
TravelCenters of America Inc.
As of December 31, 2022, we owned 621,853, or approximately 4.1%, of TA’s outstanding common shares. We account for our investment in TA using the equity method of accounting because we are deemed to exert significant influence, but not control, over TA’s most significant activities. We elected the fair value option to account for our equity method investment in TA and determine fair value using the closing price of TA’s common shares as of the end of the period, which is a Level 1 fair value input. The aggregate market value of our investment in TA at December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, based on quoted market prices, was $27,847 and $33,537, respectively. The unrealized (loss) gain in our condensed consolidated statements of income related to our investment in TA was $(5,690) and $1,138 for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Note 4. Income Taxes
We are the sole managing member of RMR LLC. We are a corporation subject to U.S. federal and state income tax with respect to our allocable share of any taxable income of RMR LLC and its tax consolidated subsidiaries. RMR LLC is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal and most applicable state and local income tax purposes. As a partnership, RMR LLC is generally not subject to U.S. federal and most state income taxes. Any taxable income or loss generated by RMR LLC is passed through to and included in the taxable income or loss of its members, including RMR Inc. and ABP Trust, based on each member’s respective ownership percentage.
For the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, we recognized estimated income tax expense of $2,484 and $3,054, respectively, which includes $1,820 and $2,244, respectively, of U.S. federal income tax and $664 and $810, respectively, of state income taxes.
A reconciliation of the statutory income tax rate to the effective tax rate is as follows:
Three Months Ended December 31,
20222021
Income taxes computed at the federal statutory rate21.0 %21.0 %
State taxes, net of federal benefit3.1 %3.1 %
Permanent items0.7 %0.3 %
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest(9.9)%(10.1)%
Total14.9 %14.3 %
ASC 740, Income Taxes, provides a model for how a company should recognize, measure and present in its financial statements uncertain tax positions that have been taken or are expected to be taken with respect to all open years and in all significant jurisdictions. Pursuant to this topic, we recognize a tax benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that a particular tax position will be sustained upon examination or audit. To the extent the “more likely than not” standard has been satisfied, the

benefit associated with a tax position is measured as the largest amount that is greater than 50.0% likely to be realized upon settlement. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, we had no uncertain tax positions.
Note 5. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
As of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, the fair values of our financial instruments, which include cash and cash equivalents, amounts due from related parties, accounts payable and accrued expenses and reimbursable accounts payable and accrued expenses, were not materially different from their carrying values due to the short term nature of these financial instruments.
On a recurring basis, we measure certain financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value based upon quoted market prices. ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1), and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). A financial asset’s or financial liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The following table presents our assets and liabilities that have been measured at fair value using Level 1 inputs in the fair value hierarchy as of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022:

Leases
As of December 31, 2022, RMR LLC leased from ABP Trust and certain Managed Equity REITs office space for use as our headquarters and local offices. We incurred rental expense under related party leases aggregating $1,433 and $1,506 for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Tax-Related Payments
Our tax receivable agreement with ABP Trust requires RMR Inc. to pay to ABP Trust 85.0% of the amount of cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income tax or franchise tax that RMR Inc. realizes as a result of (a) the increases in tax basis attributable to RMR Inc.’s dealings with ABP Trust and (b) tax benefits related to imputed interest deemed to be paid by RMR Inc. as a result of the tax receivable agreement. As of December 31, 2022, our condensed consolidated balance sheet reflects a liability related to the tax receivable agreement of $25,583, including $2,275 classified as a current liability in accounts payable and accrued expenses that we expect to pay to ABP Trust during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023.
Under the RMR LLC operating agreement, RMR LLC is required to make certain pro rata distributions to each member of RMR LLC quarterly on the basis of the estimated tax liabilities of its members, estimated quarterly, subject to future adjustment based on actual results. For the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, RMR LLC made required quarterly tax distributions to holders of its membership units totaling $8,094 and $4,158, respectively, of which $4,255 and $2,179, respectively, was distributed to us and $3,839 and $1,979, respectively, was distributed to ABP Trust. The amounts distributed to us were eliminated in our condensed consolidated financial statements, and the amounts distributed to ABP Trust were recorded as a reduction of its noncontrolling interest. We used funds from these distributions to pay certain of our U.S. federal and state income tax liabilities and to pay part of our obligations under the tax receivable agreement.
Purchase of SEVN Shares
On May 11, 2022, Tremont purchased 882,407 SEVN common shares of beneficial interest from Diane Portnoy, the mother of Adam D. Portnoy, for an aggregate purchase price of $9,469.

Separation Arrangements
We enter into retirement agreements with certain of our former executive officers. Pursuant to these agreements, we make various cash payments and accelerate the vesting of unvested shares RMR Inc. previously awarded to these retiring officers. We also enter into separation arrangements from time to time with other nonexecutive officers and employees of ours. All costs associated with separation arrangements, for which there remain no substantive performance obligations, are recorded in our condensed consolidated statements of income as separation costs.
For the three months ended December 31, 2022, we recognized separation costs of $438, including cash and equity based separation costs of $380 and $58, respectively. We did not recognize any separation costs for the three months ended December 31, 2021.
Note 7. Shareholders’ Equity
We award our Class A common stock, or Class A Common Shares, to our Directors, officers and employees under the Amended and Restated 2016 Omnibus Equity Plan, or the 2016 Plan. Director share awards vest immediately. Officer and Employee share awards vest in five equal, consecutive, annual installments, with the first installment vesting on the date of award. We recognize forfeitures as they occur. Compensation expense related to share awards is determined based on the market value of our shares on the date of award, with the aggregate value of the awarded shares amortized to expense over the related vesting period. Expense recognized for Director share awards are included in general and administrative expenses and expense recognized for Officer and Employee share awards are included in equity based compensation in our condensed consolidated statements of income.
Equity based compensation expense related to shares awarded to our officers and employees was $561 and $621 for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, we had 199,740 unvested shares outstanding which are scheduled to vest as follows: 73,820 shares in 2023, 58,160 shares in 2024, 42,680 shares in 2025 and 25,080 in 2026.
In connection with the vesting and issuance of awards of our Class A Common Shares to our Directors, officers and employees, we provide for the ability to repurchase our Class A Common Shares to satisfy tax withholding and payment obligations. The repurchase price is based on the closing price of our Class A Common Shares on the The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, or Nasdaq. The aggregate value of 895 Class A Common Shares repurchased during the three months ended December 31, 2022 was $25, which is recorded as a decrease to additional paid in capital within shareholders’ equity in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
In connection with the issuances and repurchases of our Class A Common Shares, and as required by the RMR LLC operating agreement, RMR LLC concurrently issues or acquires an identical number of Class A Units from RMR Inc.
Distributions
During the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, we declared and paid dividends on our Class A Common Shares and Class B-1 common stock, or Class B-1 Common Shares, as follows:

This dividend will be partially funded by a distribution from RMR LLC to holders of its membership units in the amount of $0.32 per unit, or $10,113, of which $5,313 will be distributed to us based on our aggregate ownership of 16,603,262 membership units of RMR LLC and $4,800 will be distributed to ABP Trust based on its ownership of 15,000,000 membership units of RMR LLC. The remainder of this dividend will be funded with cash accumulated at RMR Inc. We expect to pay this dividend on or about February 16, 2023.
Note 8. Per Common Share Amounts
We calculate basic earnings per share using the two-class method. Unvested Class A Common Shares awarded to our employees are deemed participating securities for purposes of calculating basic earnings per common share because they have dividend rights. Under the two-class method, we allocate earnings proportionately to vested Class A Common Shares and Class B-1 Common Shares outstanding and unvested Class A Common Shares outstanding for the period. Accordingly, earnings attributable to unvested Class A Common Shares are excluded from basic earnings per share under the two-class method. Our Class B-2 common stock of RMR Inc., or Class B-2 Common Shares, which are paired with ABP Trust’s Class A Units, have no independent economic interest in RMR Inc. and thus are not included as common shares outstanding for purposes of calculating basic earnings per common share.
Diluted earnings per share is calculated using the treasury stock method for unvested Class A Common Shares and the if-converted method for Class B-2 Common Shares. The 15,000,000 Class A Units that we do not own may be redeemed for our Class A Common Shares on a one-for-one basis, or upon such redemption, we may elect to pay cash instead of issuing Class A Common Shares. Upon redemption of a Class A Unit, the Class B-2 Common Share “paired” with such unit is canceled for no additional consideration. In computing the dilutive effect, if any, that the assumed redemption would have on earnings per share, we considered that net income available to holders of our Class A Common Shares would increase due to elimination of the noncontrolling interest offset by any tax effect, which may be dilutive. For the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the assumed redemption is dilutive to earnings per share as presented in the table below.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following information should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with our 2022 Annual Report.
OVERVIEW (dollars in thousands)
RMR Inc. is a holding company and substantially all of its business is conducted by RMR LLC. RMR Inc. has no employees, and the personnel and various services it requires to operate are provided by RMR LLC. RMR LLC manages a diverse portfolio of real estate and real estate related businesses. As of December 31, 2022, RMR LLC managed nearly 2,100 properties in 46 states, Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico and Canada that are principally owned by the Managed Equity REITs.
Business Environment and Outlook
The continuation and growth of our business depends upon our ability to operate the Managed Equity REITs and SEVN so as to maintain, grow and increase the value of their businesses, to assist ALR, TA and Sonesta to grow their businesses and operate profitably, and to successfully expand our business through the execution of new business ventures and additional investments. Our business and the businesses of our clients generally follow the business cycle of the U.S. real estate industry, but with certain property type and regional geographic variations. Typically, as the general U.S. economy expands, commercial real estate occupancies increase and new real estate development occurs; new development frequently leads to increased real estate supply and reduced occupancies; and then the cycle repeats. These general trends can be impacted by property type characteristics or regional factors; for example, demographic factors such as the aging U.S. population, the growth of e-commerce retail sales or net population migration across different geographic regions can slow, accelerate, overwhelm or otherwise impact general cyclical trends. Because of such multiple factors, we believe it is often possible to grow real estate based businesses in selected property types or geographic areas despite general national trends.
Beyond general real estate industry trends, we also take into account general economic factors impacting our clients. More specifically, in the U.S., the Federal Reserve has increased the federal funds rate seven times since the beginning of calendar 2022 and has announced an expectation that it will continue to raise rates, in an attempt to slow inflation, which has in turn lead to increased borrowing costs and disruptions in the financial markets. In a period of increased borrowing costs, real estate transaction volumes often slow along with real estate valuation growth, which the commercial real estate industry has been experiencing. Rising interest rates also adversely impact our clients with floating rate debt, which they, in some instances, attempt to address with interest rate caps and other strategic actions to reduce leverage. Further, while the Federal Reserve is looking to slow inflation, its efforts may not be successful. The impact of rising costs, both for goods and human capital, are impacting us and our clients and we and our clients are continuing to implement mitigation strategies to minimize the impact of increased costs on our and our clients’ earnings, where possible.
We consider industry and general economic factors when providing services to our clients and attempt to take advantage of opportunities when they arise. For example: (i) since March 2020, ILPT and DHC have completed several joint venture transactions with institutional investors and subsequently grown some of those ventures by acquiring additional properties; (ii) SVC transitioned over 200 hotels from other hotel operators to Sonesta, which on March 17, 2021, completed its acquisition of RLH Corporation, establishing it as one of the largest hotel companies in the U.S. and expanding its franchising capabilities; (iii) on September 30, 2021, SEVN and Tremont Mortgage Trust merged, resulting in a larger, more diversified mortgage REIT with an expanded capital base; and (iv) on February 25, 2022, ILPT completed its acquisition of 126 new, Class A, single tenant, net leased, e-commerce focused industrial properties as a result of its acquisition of Monmouth Real Estate Investment Corporation, or MNR, in an all-cash transaction valued at approximately $4.0 billion. In addition, we balance our pursuit of growth of our and our clients’ businesses by executing, on behalf of our clients, prudent capital recycling or business arrangement restructurings in an attempt to help our clients prudently manage leverage and increased operating costs. We also look to reposition their portfolios and businesses when circumstances warrant such changes or when other more desirable opportunities are identified.
Managed Equity REITs
The base business management fees we earn from the Managed Equity REITs are calculated monthly in accordance with the applicable business management agreement and are based on a percentage of the lower of (i) the average historical cost of each REIT’s properties and (ii) each REIT’s average market capitalization. The property management fees we earn from the Managed Equity REITs are principally based on a percentage of the gross rents collected at certain managed properties owned by the Managed Equity REITs, excluding rents or other revenues from hotels, travel centers, senior living properties and wellness centers, which are separately managed by ALR, TA, Sonesta or a third party. Also under the terms of the property management agreements, we receive construction supervision fees in connection with certain construction activities undertaken

For further information regarding the fees we earn, see Note 2, Revenue Recognition, to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
The following table presents for each Managed Equity REIT a summary of its primary strategy and the lesser of the historical cost of its assets under management and its market capitalization as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, as applicable:

A Managed Equity REIT’s historical cost of assets under management includes the real estate it owns and its consolidated assets invested directly or indirectly in equity interests in or loans secured by real estate and personal property owned in connection with such real estate (including acquisition related costs which may be allocated to intangibles or are unallocated), all before reserves for depreciation, amortization, impairment charges or bad debts or other similar non-cash reserves. A Managed Equity REIT’s average market capitalization includes the average value of the Managed Equity REIT’s outstanding common equity value during the period, plus the daily weighted average of each of the aggregate liquidation preference of preferred shares and the principal amount of consolidated indebtedness during the period. The table above presents for each Managed Equity REIT, the lesser of the historical cost of its assets under management and its market capitalization as of the end of each period.
The basis on which our base business management fees are calculated for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 may differ from the basis at the end of the periods presented in the table above.

Management services revenue. Management services revenue increased $3,651 primarily due to (i) growth in base business management fees of $3,134 and base property management fees of $1,315 earned from ILPT, primarily due to its acquisition of MNR in February 2022, and (ii) an aggregate increase of $2,453 in construction management fees earned primarily as a result of increased development activities at our clients. These increases were partially offset by a decline in base business management fees earned from SVC and OPI of $3,213, due to declines in the enterprise values of these respective clients during the current fiscal period.
Advisory services revenue. Advisory services revenue was relatively unchanged from the prior period.
Reimbursable compensation and benefits. Reimbursable compensation and benefits include reimbursements, at cost, that arise primarily from services our employees provide pursuant to our property management agreements at the properties of our clients. A significant portion of these compensation and benefits are charged or passed through to and paid by tenants of our clients. Reimbursable compensation and benefits was relatively unchanged from the prior period.
21
Table of Contents
Reimbursable equity based compensation. Reimbursable equity based compensation includes awards of common shares by our clients directly to certain of our officers and employees in connection with the provision of management services to those clients. We record an equal, offsetting amount as equity based compensation expense for the value of these awards. Reimbursable equity based compensation revenue increased $691 primarily as a result of our clients’ annual employee share awards and increases in our clients’ respective share prices.
Other reimbursable expenses. For further information about these reimbursements, see Note 2, Revenue Recognition, to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q.
Compensation and benefits. Compensation and benefits consist of employee salaries and other employment related costs, including health insurance expenses and contributions related to our employee retirement plan. Compensation and benefits expense increased $1,473 primarily due to annual merit increases that were effective October 1, 2022.
Equity based compensation. Equity based compensation consists of the value of vested shares awarded to certain of our employees under our and our clients’ equity compensation plans. Equity based compensation increased $631 primarily as a result of annual employee share awards and increases in certain of our clients’ respective share prices.
Separation costs. Separation costs consist of employment termination costs. For further information about these costs, see Note 6, Related Person Transactions, to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q.
General and administrative. General and administrative expenses consist of office related expenses, information technology related expenses, employee training, travel, professional services expenses, director compensation and other administrative expenses. General and administrative costs increased $1,492 primarily due to strategic technology investments and increases in temporary help, recruiting and other professional fees.
Interest income. Interest income increased $1,713 primarily due to higher interest earned during the current period primarily as a result of higher interest rates compared to the prior period.
Unrealized (loss) gain on equity method investments accounted for under the fair value option. Unrealized (loss) gain on equity method investments accounted for under the fair value option represents the unrealized gain or loss on our investments in SEVN and TA common shares. For further information, see Note 3, Equity Method Investments, to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Income tax expense. The decrease in income tax expense of $570 is primarily attributable to lower taxable income for the current period compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)
Our current assets have historically been comprised predominantly of cash, cash equivalents and receivables for business management, property management and advisory services fees. As of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $200,965 and $189,088, respectively, of which $24,503 and $21,492, respectively, was held by RMR Inc., with the remainder being held at RMR LLC. Cash and cash equivalents include all short term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and have original maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase. As of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, $198,319 and $181,219, respectively, of our cash and cash equivalents were invested in money market bank accounts. We believe that our cash and cash equivalents leave us well positioned to pursue a range of capital allocation strategies, with a focus on the growth of our private capital business, to fund our operations and enhance our technology infrastructure, in the next twelve months.
Our liquidity is highly dependent upon our receipt of fees from the businesses that we manage. Historically, we have funded our working capital needs with cash generated from our operating activities and we currently do not maintain any credit facilities. We expect that our future working capital needs will relate largely to our operating expenses, primarily consisting of employee compensation and benefits costs, our obligation to make quarterly tax distributions to the members of RMR LLC, our plan to make quarterly distributions on our Class A Common Shares and Class B-1 Common Shares and our plan to pay quarterly distributions to the members of RMR LLC in connection with the quarterly dividends to RMR Inc. shareholders. Our management fees are typically payable to us within 30 days of the end of each month or, in the case of annual incentive business management fees earned from the Managed Equity REITs, if any, within 30 days following each calendar year end. Quarterly incentive fees earned from SEVN, if any, are payable generally within 30 days following the end of the applicable quarter. Historically, we have not experienced losses on collection of our fees and have not recorded any allowances for bad debts.

During the three months ended December 31, 2022, we paid cash distributions to the holders of our Class A Common Shares, Class B-1 Common Shares and to the other owner of RMR LLC membership units in the aggregate amount of $11,442. On January 12, 2023, we declared a quarterly dividend on our Class A Common Shares and Class B-1 Common Shares to our shareholders of record as of January 23, 2023 in the amount of $0.40 per Class A Common Share and Class B-1 Common Share, or $6,641. This dividend will be partially funded by a distribution from RMR LLC to holders of its membership units in the amount of $0.32 per unit, or $10,113, of which $5,313 will be distributed to us based on our aggregate ownership of 16,603,262 membership units of RMR LLC and $4,800 will be distributed to ABP Trust based on its ownership of 15,000,000 membership units of RMR LLC. The remainder of this dividend will be funded with cash accumulated at RMR Inc. We expect the total dividend will amount to approximately $11,441 and we expect to pay this dividend on or about February 16, 2023. See Note 7, Shareholders’ Equity, to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information regarding these distributions.
For the three months ended December 31, 2022, pursuant to the RMR LLC operating agreement, RMR LLC made required quarterly tax distributions to its holders of its membership units totaling $8,094, of which $4,255 was distributed to us and $3,839 was distributed to ABP Trust, based on each membership unit holder’s then respective ownership percentage in RMR LLC. The $4,255 distributed to us was eliminated in our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part 1, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and the $3,839 distributed to ABP Trust was recorded as a reduction of their noncontrolling interest. We expect to use a portion of these funds distributed to us to pay our tax liabilities and amounts due under the tax receivable agreement described in Note 6, Related Person Transactions, to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We expect to use the remaining funds distributed to us to fund our long-term tax liabilities and pay dividends.
Cash Flows
Our changes in cash flows for the three months ended December 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2021 were as follows: (i) net cash from operating activities decreased $6,868 from $34,968 in the prior period to $28,100 in the current period; (ii) net cash used in investing activities increased $752 from $165 in the prior period to $917 in the current period; and (iii) net cash used in financing activities increased $2,555 from $12,751 in the prior period to $15,306 in the current period.
The decrease in net cash from operating activities for the three months ended December 31, 2022 compared to the prior period primarily reflects unfavorable changes in working capital, partially offset by increases in net income, after the exclusion of non-cash gains and losses. The increase in net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended December 31, 2022 compared to the prior period was primarily due to purchases of property and equipment. Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended December 31, 2022 increased from the prior period primarily due to higher tax distributions based on current estimates for taxable income in this fiscal year.
As of December 31, 2022, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements that have had or that we expect would be reasonably likely to have a material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
Tax Receivable Agreement
We are party to a tax receivable agreement which provides for the payment by RMR Inc. to ABP Trust of 85.0% of the amount of savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income tax or franchise tax that RMR Inc. realizes as a result of (a) the increases in tax basis attributable to RMR Inc.’s dealings with ABP Trust and (b) tax benefits related to imputed interest deemed to be paid by it as a result of the tax receivable agreement. See Note 6, Related Person Transactions, to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and “Business—Our Organizational Structure—tax receivable agreement” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019. As of December 31, 2022, our condensed consolidated balance sheet reflects a liability related to the tax receivable agreement of $25,583, of which we expect to pay $2,275 to ABP Trust during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023. 
Market Risk and Credit Risk
We have not invested in derivative instruments, borrowed through issuing debt securities or transacted in foreign currencies. As a result, we are not subject to significant direct market risk related to interest rate changes, changes to the market standard for determining interest rates, commodity price changes or credit risks; however, if any of these risks were to negatively impact our clients’ businesses or market capitalization, our revenues would likely decline. To the extent we change our approach on the foregoing activities, or engage in other activities, our market and credit risks could change. See Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” of our 2022 Annual Report for the risks to us and our clients.
23
Table of Contents
Risks Related to Cash and Short Term Investments
Our cash and cash equivalents include short term, highly liquid investments readily convertible to known amounts of cash that have original maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase. We invest a substantial amount of our cash in money market bank accounts. The majority of our cash is maintained in U.S. bank accounts. Some U.S. bank account balances exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit. We believe our cash and short term investments are not subject to any material interest rate risk, equity price risk, credit risk or other market risk.
Related Person Transactions
We have relationships and historical and continuing transactions with Adam D. Portnoy, the Chair of our Board and one of our Managing Directors, as well as our clients. For further information about these and other such relationships and related person transactions, please see Note 6, Related Person Transactions, to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our 2022 Annual Report, our definitive Proxy Statement for our 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and our other filings with the SEC. In addition, see the section captioned “Risk Factors” in our 2022 Annual Report for a description of risks that may arise as a result of these and other related person transactions and relationships. We may engage in additional transactions with related persons, including businesses to which RMR LLC or its subsidiaries provide management services.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates that impact the condensed consolidated financial statements include the revenue recognized during the reporting periods and our principles of consolidation.
A discussion of our critical accounting estimates is included in our 2022 Annual Report. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting estimates since the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Quantitative and Qualitative disclosures about market risk are set forth above in “Item 2—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation—Market Risk and Credit Risk.”
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report, our management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based upon that evaluation, our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
WARNING CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other securities laws. Our forward-looking statements reflect our current views, intents and expectations with respect to, among other things, our operations and financial performance. Our forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “outlook,” “believe,” “expect,” “potential,” “will,” “may,” “estimate,” “anticipate” and derivatives or negatives of such words or similar words. Such forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, there are or will be factors that could cause actual outcomes or results to differ materially from those stated or implied in these statements. We believe these factors include, but are not limited to the following:
•the long term impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our clients’ businesses;
•substantially all of our revenues are derived from services to a limited number of clients;
•our revenues may be highly variable;
24
Table of Contents
•risks related to supply chain constraints, commodity pricing and inflation, including inflation impacting wages and employee benefits;
•changing market conditions, practices and trends may adversely impact our clients and the fees we receive from them;
•potential terminations of our management agreements with our clients;
•increases in market interest rates may significantly reduce our revenues or impede our growth;
•our ability to expand our business depends upon the growth and performance of our clients and our ability to obtain or create new clients for our business and is often dependent upon circumstances beyond our control;
•the ability of our clients to operate their businesses profitably and to grow and increase their market capitalizations and total shareholder returns;
•litigation risks;
•risks related to acquisitions, dispositions and other activities by or among our clients;
•allegations, even if untrue, of any conflicts of interest arising from our management activities;
•our ability to retain the services of our managing directors and other key personnel; and
•our and our clients’ risks associated with our and their costs of compliance with laws and regulations, including securities regulations, exchange listing standards and other laws and regulations affecting public companies.
For example:
•We have a limited number of clients. We have long term contracts with our Managed Equity REITs; however, the other contracts under which we earn our revenues are for shorter terms, and the long term contracts with our Managed Equity REITs and our other contracts with other clients may be terminated in certain circumstances. The termination or loss of any of our management contracts may have a material adverse impact upon our revenues, profits, cash flows and business reputation;
•Our base business management fees earned from our Managed Equity REITs are calculated monthly based upon the lower of each REIT’s cost of its applicable assets and such REIT’s market capitalization. Our business management fees earned from ALR, TA and Sonesta are calculated based upon certain revenues from each operator’s business. Accordingly, our future revenues, income and cash flows will decline if the business activities, assets or market capitalizations of our clients decline;
•The fact that we earned significant incentive business management fees from certain of our Managed Equity REITs in previous years may imply that we will earn incentive business management fees in future years. The incentive business management fees that we may earn from our Managed Equity REITs are based upon total returns realized by the REITs’ shareholders compared to the total shareholders return of certain identified indexes. We have only limited control over the total returns realized by shareholders of the Managed Equity REITs and effectively no control over indexed total returns. There can be no assurance that we will earn any incentive business management fees from our Managed Equity REITs in the future;
•We currently intend to pay a regular quarterly dividend of $0.40 per Class A Common Share and Class B-1 Common Share. Our dividends are declared and paid at the discretion of our board of directors. Our board may consider many factors when deciding whether to declare and pay dividends, including our current and projected cash flows and alternative uses for any available cash. Our board may decide to lower or even eliminate our dividends. There can be no assurance that we will continue to pay any regular dividends or with regard to the amount of dividends we may pay;
•We balance our pursuit of growth of our and our clients’ businesses by executing, on behalf of our clients, prudent capital recycling or business arrangement restructurings in an attempt to help our clients prudently manage leverage and increased operating costs and to reposition their portfolios and businesses when circumstances warrant such changes or when other more desirable opportunities are identified. However, these efforts may not be successful and, even if they are successful, they may not be sufficient to prevent our clients from experiencing increases in leverage, to adequately reposition our clients’ portfolios and businesses, or to enable our clients to execute successfully on desirable opportunities;
25
Table of Contents
•Our attempts to take into account industry and economic factors as well as specific property and regional geographic considerations when providing services to our clients may not be successful;
•We have undertaken new initiatives and are considering other initiatives to grow our business and any actions we may take to grow our business may not be successful or we may elect to abandon pursuing some or all of those initiatives in order to pursue other initiatives or for other reasons. In addition, any investments or repositioning of the properties we or our clients may make or pursue may not increase the value of the applicable properties, offset the decline in value those properties may otherwise experience, or increase the market capitalization or total shareholder returns of our clients;
•Our clients’ use of interest rate caps may not be successful or may not be sufficient to mitigate increased costs they may experience as a result of rising interest rates or other inflation;
•The risk mitigation strategies that we may implement to minimize the impact of increased costs on our and our clients’ earnings as a result of rising costs, including for both goods and human capital, may not be successful or sufficient;
•We state that our cash and cash equivalents balance leaves us well positioned to pursue a range of capital allocation strategies, with a focus on the growth of our private capital business, to fund our operations and obligations and enhance our technology infrastructure, in the next 12 months. This statement may imply that we will successfully identify and execute one or more capital allocation strategies in the next 12 months and that any capital allocation strategy we may pursue will be successful and benefit us and our shareholders. However, identifying and executing on capital allocation strategies are subject to various uncertainties and risks and may take an extended period to realize any resulting benefit to our business. In addition, we may elect to not pursue a capital allocation strategy or abandon any such strategy we may pursue; and
•We continue expanding our Environmental, Social and Governance, or ESG, program, initiatives and commitments and we expect that we and our clients will benefit as a result. However, we and our clients may not realize the benefits we expect from this program and those initiatives and commitments and we and our clients may not succeed in meeting existing or future commitments and standards regarding ESG.
There are or will be additional important factors that could cause business outcomes or financial results to differ materially from those stated or implied in our forward-looking statements. For example, increasing interest rates, inflation and a possible recession, may reduce or limit any growth in the market value of our Managed Equity REITs or cause their rent receipts or construction activities to decline or cause the revenues of ALR, TA or Sonesta to significantly decline and, as a result, our revenues and cash flows may be adversely impacted.
We have based our forward-looking statements on our current expectations about future events that we believe may affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified, our forward-looking statements should not be relied on as predictions of future events. The events and circumstances reflected in our forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur and actual results could differ materially from those projected or implied in our forward-looking statements. The matters discussed in this warning should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our 2022 Annual Report, including the “Risk Factors” section of our 2022 Annual Report. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law.
