HOSPITALITY PROPERTIES TRUST

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(dollars in thousands, except per share data)

 

Note 1.  Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Hospitality Properties Trust and its subsidiaries have been prepared without audit. Certain information and footnote disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles 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 financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included. All intercompany transactions and balances between us and our subsidiaries have been eliminated. Our operating results for interim periods and those of our tenants are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.

 

Note 2.  Shareholders’ Equity

 

In May 2003, we paid a $0.72 per share, or $45,054, distribution to our common shareholders for the quarter ended March 31, 2003.  In July 2003, we declared a distribution of $0.72 per share, or $45,063, to be paid to common shareholders of record on July 23, 2003.  This distribution will be paid on or about August 21, 2003.

 

In June 2003, we paid a $0.59375 per share, or $1,781, distribution to our series A preferred shareholders and in July  2003, we paid $0.5546875 per share distribution, or $1,914, to our series B preferred shareholders.

 

In May 2003, our three independent trustees each were awarded 300 common shares as part of their annual compensation. Those shares vested immediately. In July 2003, 11,000 common shares were granted to our officers and employees of our advisor, REIT Management & Research LLC. One-third of those shares vested immediately, and one-third vests on each of July 1, 2004, and July 1, 2005.

 

Note 3.  Indebtedness

 

In April 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 145, “Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections” (FAS 145). The provisions of this standard eliminate the requirement that a gain or loss from the extinguishment of debt be classified as an extraordinary item, unless it can be considered unusual in nature and infrequent in occurrence. We implemented FAS 145 on January 1, 2003. On February 18, 2003, we redeemed at par plus accrued interest all of our outstanding 8.5% senior notes due 2009. In connection with this early repayment, we recognized a charge to ordinary operations for the write off of unamortized debt issuance costs of $2,582.

 

Our credit facility matures in June 2005 and may be extended at our option to June 2006 upon our payment of an extension fee.  This facility permits borrowing up to $350,000 and includes a feature under which the maximum draw could expand to $700,000, in certain circumstances.  Drawings under our credit facility are unsecured.  Funds may be drawn, repaid and redrawn until maturity, and no principal repayment is due until maturity.  Interest on borrowings under the credit facility is payable at LIBOR plus a spread, totaling 1.35% per annum at June 30, 2003. As of June 30, 2003, we had $155,000 outstanding on our credit facility and $195,000 available for acquisitions and general business purposes.

 

Note 4.  Real Estate Properties

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2003, we provided $17,701 of funding for planned tenant improvements to certain of our hotels, which resulted in an increase in our annual minimum rent of $1,770.

 

Note 5.  Wyndham Lease Defaults

 

We own 27 hotels that were leased under two combination leases to subsidiaries of Wyndham International, Inc. (Wyndham). One lease, for 15 Summerfield Suites by Wyndham® hotels, required minimum rent of $2,083 per month. The second lease, for 12 Wyndham® hotels, required minimum rent of $1,527 per month. On April 2, 2003, we declared Wyndham in default of its lease obligations for non-payment of rent. Simultaneously, we exercised our rights to retain certain collateral security we held for the Wyndham lease obligations, including security deposits previously provided

 

6



 

us by Wyndham of $33,325 (which were not escrowed) and FF&E reserves of $6,928 (which were previously escrowed). On April 28, 2003, and May 12, 2003, respectively, we terminated Wyndham’s occupancy and operation of the 15 Summerfield Suites by Wyndham® hotels and the 12 Wyndham® hotels, and leased the hotels to our taxable REIT subsidiary, or TRS. Our TRS has retained third party managers to operate these 27 hotels under short-term contracts until we identify permanent operators. Accordingly, our income and cash flows from these hotels will fluctuate based on hotel performance and this income and cash flow currently are less than the rents we previously received from the two Wyndham leases. We have not yet decided whether to retain the Wyndham® and Summerfield® brand affiliations for these hotels. For the period commencing with our termination of Wyndham’s occupancy and operation, we have recognized hotel operating revenues and hotel operating expenses related to these 27 hotels.

 

We have begun discussions with Wyndham concerning the final accounting for various items arising from its lease defaults, including payment of cash flows due to us after the defaults and while Wyndham continued to operate our hotels, the rent due after April 1, 2003, the amounts of FF&E reserve deposits, improvements purchased with such deposits, the security deposits and other matters. Because these amounts have not been quantified or agreed upon they have not been recognized in our June 30, 2003, financial statements. We expect the final resolution of these matters to result in a net gain.

 

Note 6.  Significant Tenant

 

HMH HPT CBM LLC, a 100% owned special purpose subsidiary of Host Marriott Corporation (Host), is the lessee of 53 Courtyard by Marriott® properties which represented 20% of our investments, at cost, as of December 31, 2001 (19% at December 31, 2002).

Note 7.  Subsequent Events

 

On July 1, 2003, we purchased 16 Staybridge Suites® for $185,000 from InterContinental Hotels Group PLC (InterContinental).  We simultaneously leased these hotels to our TRS, which entered into a long-term management agreement with a subsidiary of InterContinental to operate the hotels. Pursuant to this agreement we expect to receive an owner’s priority return of $16,900 per year, plus percentage participations in hotel operating revenues in excess of negotiated amounts. Our priority return is secured by a security deposit of $16,900 which we withheld from the purchase price and by a limited guaranty from InterContinental. InterContinental’s management contract for these hotels has an initial term expiring in 2023 and InterContinental has two all or none renewal options for 12.5 years each thereafter. We funded this acquisition with cash on hand, incuding $155,000 drawn on June 29, 2003, under our bank credit facility.

 

On July 21, 2003, we purchased seven Candlewood Suites® hotels for $65,000 from Candlewood Hotel Company  (Candlewood). Simultaneous with this purchase, we added these seven hotels to our existing lease for 57 Candlewood Suites® hotels with Candlewood.  When these hotels were added to this existing lease, the rent payable by Candlewood to us was increased by $6,500 per year, plus a percentage of hotel operating revenues in excess of negotiated amounts.  The combined lease for all 64 hotels remains secured by a security deposit and a guaranty from Candlewood.  We funded the acquisition with cash on hand and borrowings under our bank credit facility.

We own 24 Amerisuites® hotels that are leased to a subsidiary of Prime Hospitality Corp. (Prime). The lease requires net minimum rent of $1,983 per month. On July 2, 2003, we declared Prime in default of its lease obligations for non-payment of rent. Simultaneously, we exercised our right to retain certain collateral security we held for the Prime lease obligations, including security and guaranty deposits totaling $42,075 (which were not escrowed) and a FF&E reserve of $4,271 (which was previously escrowed). Prime’s management and franchise agreements for these 24 hotels are subordinated to our lease obligations. Accordingly, we have the right to install a new manager and to re-brand these hotels.  We have not yet determined whether to change the management of these hotels or their brand. The income and cash flow of these hotels are currently less than the rent we previously received from Prime and, accordingly, our future income from the hotels is expected to decline.

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

 

Overview (dollar amounts in thousands)

 

The following information should be read in conjunction with financial statements and notes thereto included in this quarterly report and with our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

Current Events

 

As a result of the terrorism concerns, the war with Iraq, concerns regarding the SARS outbreak and the impact of a recessionary economy, the U.S. hotel industry has experienced significant declines in occupancy, revenues and profitability since 2001. These declines primarily arose from reduced business travel. During the first six months of 2003, most of our hotel operators continued to report declines in the operating performance of our hotels versus 2002. As described below, tenants under two leases for 27 hotels failed to pay rents totaling $3,610 due to us on April 1, 2003; and a tenant under one lease for 24 hotels failed to pay rent of $1,983 due to us on July 1, 2003. Because of these defaults our future income and cash flow from these 51 hotels will fluctuate based on the hotels’ performance. In view of present hotel industry operating conditions, we expect this income and cash flow will be less than the rents we previously received for these 51 hotels. All of our other leases and operating agreements contain security features, such as security deposits and, in certain instances, guarantees, which are intended to protect payment of minimum rents and returns to us in accordance with our contract terms regardless of hotel performance. However, the effectiveness of these various security features to provide uninterrupted payments to us is not assured, particularly if the current hotel industry operating conditions continue at depressed levels for extended periods. If additional tenants, hotel managers or guarantors default in their payment obligations to us, our revenues and cash flows may decline further.

 

Leases and Operating Agreements

 

At June 30, 2003, each of our 251 hotel properties was leased to or operated by third parties: 199 of our hotels were leased by third parties under six pooled or combination leases; and 52 of our hotels are managed by third parties under three pooled or combination management contracts. Our 52 managed hotels are leased to our taxable REIT subsidiary, or TRS. One agreement includes 35 hotels, which as of June 30, 2003, includes 25 hotels operated by affiliates of Marriott International under long term management contracts and leased to our TRS. Payment obligations due to us for these 25 hotels are pooled with the remaining 10 hotels that continue to be leased by Marriott International until it elects to operate them under the management agreement. Each of these 10 hotels are required to begin to be leased to our TRS and managed by Marriott prior to June 30, 2004. We expect hotel operating revenues and hotel operating expenses to increase when these hotels begin to be leased to our TRS. Twenty-seven hotels formerly leased to Wyndham are currently operated by two different third party managers. As a result, hotel operating revenues and expenses from these hotels began to be reflected in our consolidated statement of income during the 2003 second quarter.

 

Results of Operations (dollar amounts in thousands, except per share amounts)

 

Three Months Ended June 30, 2003 versus 2002

 

Total revenues for the 2003 second quarter were $101,314, a 15.0% increase over revenues of $88,115 for the 2002 second quarter.  This is primarily due to increased activities of our TRS as explained above.

 

Rental income for the 2003 second quarter was $50,755, a 18.2% decrease from $62,082 for the 2002 second quarter. This decrease is a result of the rental income of $10,830 recognized in the 2002 second quarter (versus $0 in the 2003 second quarter) for the 27 hotels previously leased to Wyndham which began to be leased to our TRS in the 2003 second quarter and replacement of $1,563 of rental income with hotel operating revenues and expenses for hotels leased to Marriott International which began to be leased to our TRS subsequent to the 2002 second quarter. Rents from our TRS are not separately stated in our consolidated statement of income.

 

11



 

The termination of Wyndham’s occupancy and management of the Summerfield Suites® and Wyndham® hotels and the commencement of the leases with our TRS took place on April 28, 2003, and May 12, 2003, respectively. We recognized no rental or other income for the period April 1, 2003, to the dates Wyndham’s occupancy and management of the hotels were terminated due to the uncertainty regarding its amount and collection. We are in discussions with Wyndham regarding this and other matters.

 

FF&E reserve income represents amounts paid by our tenants into restricted accounts owned by us, the purpose of which is to accumulate funds for future capital expenditures. The terms of our leases require these amounts to be calculated as a percentage of total sales at our hotels. The FF&E reserve income for the 2003 second quarter was $5,109, a 9.9% decrease from FF&E reserve income of $5,669 for the 2002 second quarter. This decrease is primarily due to reduced levels of hotel sales attributable to the general slowdown of business travel across the United States described above. Part of this decrease is also due to activities related to six hotels which were leased to Marriott International during the 2002 second quarter that began to be leased to our TRS after the 2002 second quarter. The revenues which are escrowed as FF&E reserves for hotels leased to our TRS, totaling $222 for the 2002 second quarter are not separately stated in our consolidated statements of income.

 

Our TRS activities gave rise to hotel operating revenues for the 2003 second quarter of $45,374, a 123.4% increase over hotel operating revenues of $20,310 for the 2002 second quarter. Our TRS activities also gave rise to hotel operating expenses for the 2003 second quarter of $32,058, a 142.3% increase over hotel operating expenses of $13,229 for the 2002 second quarter. The increases in hotel operating revenues and expenses were caused by our adding six hotels previously leased to Marriott International and the 27 hotels previously leased to Wyndham to our TRS operations in the 2003 second quarter. The hotels formerly leased to Marriott International which are now leased to our TRS generated net operating results that were $301 and $720 less than the minimum return due to us for the 2003 and 2002 second quarter, respectively; these amounts have been reflected in our statement of income as a net reduction to hotel operating expenses in each year because they were funded by Marriott.

 

Interest income for the 2003 second quarter was $76, a 40.7% increase over $54 for the 2002 second quarter. The increase was primarily due to the higher average cash balances in the 2003 second quarter.

 

Total expenses for the 2003 second quarter were $70,732, a 34.4% increase over total expenses of $52,625 for the 2002 second quarter. The increase is primarily due to our recognition of hotel operating expenses for a larger number of hotels leased to our TRS in the 2003 second quarter than in the 2002 second quarter.

 

Interest expense for the 2003 second quarter was $9,733, a 12.0% decrease from interest expense of $11,066 for the 2002 second quarter. The decrease was primarily due to a lower weighted average interest rate during the 2003 second quarter. Depreciation and amortization expense for the 2003 second quarter was $25,146, a 4.0% increase over depreciation and amortization expense of $24,186 for the 2002 second quarter.  This increase was due principally to the impact of the purchase of depreciable assets with funds from FF&E reserve accounts owned by us and capital improvements we funded to modernize 36 of our Courtyard by Marriott® hotels discussed below.

 

General and administrative expense for the 2003 second quarter was $3,795, a 8.4% decrease from general and administrative expense of $4,144 for the 2002 second quarter.  This decrease is due principally to lower incentive advisory fee expense in the 2003 second quarter.

 

Net income for the 2003 second quarter was $30,582, a 13.8% decrease from net income of $35,490 for the 2002 second quarter.  The decrease was primarily due to decreased income during the 2003 second quarter from the 27 hotels which were previously leased to Wyndham.

 

Net income available for common shareholders for the 2003 second quarter was $26,887, or $0.43 per share, a 20.2% decrease, or 20.4% on a per share basis, from net income available for common shareholders of $33,709, or $0.54 per share, for the 2002 second quarter.  This change resulted from the activities discussed above.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2003 versus 2002

 

Total revenues for the first six months of 2003 were $190,352, a 11.9% increase over revenues of $170,049 for the first six months of 2002.  This is primarily due to increased activities of our TRS as explained above and our hotel acquisitions as explained below.

 

Rental income for the first six months of 2003 was $112,088, a 6.9% decrease from $120,429 for the first six months of 2002. This decrease is a result of the rental income of $21,660 recognized in the first six months of 2002 (versus $10,830 in the first six months of 2003) for the 27 hotels previously leased to Wyndham which began to be leased to our TRS in the 2003 second quarter and the replacement of $3,127 of rental income with hotel operating revenues and expenses for hotels leased to Marriott International which subsequent to the 2002 second quarter began to be leased to our TRS. Rents from our TRS are not separately stated in our consolidated statement of income.

 

The termination of Wyndham’s occupancy and management of the Summerfield Suites® and Wyndham® hotels and the commencement of the leases with our TRS took place on April 28, 2003, and May 12, 2003, respectively. We recognized no rent or other income for the period April 1, 2003, to the dates Wyndham’s occupancy and management of the hotels were terminated due to the uncertainty regarding its amount and collection. We are in discussions with Wyndham regarding this and other matters.

 

FF&E reserve income represents amounts paid by our tenants into restricted accounts owned by us, the purpose of which is to accumulate funds for future capital expenditures. The terms of our leases require these amounts to be calculated as a percentage of total sales at our hotels. The FF&E reserve income for the first six months of 2003 was $9,814, a 10.3% decrease from FF&E reserve income of $10,935 for the first six months of 2002. This decrease is primarily due to reduced levels of hotel sales attributable to the general slowdown of business travel across the United States described above. Part of this decrease is also due to activities related to six hotels which were leased to Marriott International during the first six months of 2002 that  began to be leased to our TRS after the 2002 second quarter. Amounts which are escrowed as FF&E reserves for hotels leased by our TRS, totaling $471 for the first six months of 2002, are not separately stated in our consolidated statements of income.

 

Our TRS activities gave rise to hotel operating revenues for the first six months of 2003 of $68,160, a 77.3% increase over hotel operating revenues of $38,449 for the first six months of 2002. Our TRS activities also gave rise to hotel operating expenses for the first six months of 2003 of $46,104, a 89.0% increase over hotel operating expenses of $24,398 for the first six months of 2002. The increases in hotel operating revenues and expenses were caused by our adding six hotels previously leased to Marriott International and 27 hotels previously leased to Wyndham to our TRS operations in the first six months of 2003. The hotels formerly leased to Marriott International which are now leased to our TRS generated net operating results that were $2,527 and $2,315 less than the minimum return due to us for the six months ended 2003 and 2002, respectively; these amounts have been reflected in our statement of income as a net reduction to hotel operating expenses in each year because they were funded by Marriott.

 

Interest income for the first six months of 2003 was $290, a 22.9% increase over $236 for the first six months of 2002. The increase was primarily due to the higher average cash balances in the first six months of 2003.

 

Total expenses for the first six months of 2003 were $127,168, a 25.6% increase over total expenses of $101,228 for the first six months of 2002. The increase is primarily due to our recognition of hotel operating expenses for a larger number of hotels leased to our TRS in the first six months of 2003 than in the first six months of 2002 and a loss on early extinguishment debt.

 

Interest expense for the first six months of 2003 was $20,402, a 3.4% decrease from interest expense of $21,113 for the first six months of 2002. The decrease was primarily due to a lower weighted average interest rate during the first six months of 2003. Depreciation and amortization expense for the first six months of 2003 was $50,217, a 4.8% increase over depreciation and amortization expense of $47,920 for the first six months of 2002.  This increase was due principally to the impact of the acquisition of 21 hotels in April 2002, the purchase of depreciable assets with funds from FF&E reserve accounts owned by us and capital improvements we funded to modernize 36 of our Courtyard by Marriott® hotels.

 

13



 

General and administrative expense for the first six months of 2003 was $7,863, a 0.8% increase from general and administrative expense of $7,797 for the first six months of 2002.

 

In the first six months of 2003, we recognized a loss of $2,582 to write off the unamortized deferred financing costs associated with $150,000 of senior notes we redeemed on February 18, 2003. There was no corresponding expense in the first six months of 2002.

 

Net income for the first six months of 2003 was $63,184, a 8.2% decrease from net income of $68,821 for the first six months of 2002. The decrease was primarily due to decreased income from the 27 hotels which were previously leased to Wyndham and a loss on early extinguishment of debt.

 

Net income available for common shareholders for the first six months of 2003 was $55,794, or $0.89 per share, a 15.0% decrease, or 14.4% on a per share basis, from net income available for common shareholders of $65,628, or $1.04 per share, for the first six months of 2002. This change resulted from the activities discussed above.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources (dollar amounts in thousands, except per share amounts)

 

Our Tenants and Operators

 

All of our hotels are leased to or operated by third parties. We do not operate hotels. As of June 30, 2003, 224 of our hotels are operated under seven grouped hotel leases or operating agreements that provide for a minimum rent or return to us. All costs of operating and maintaining our hotels are paid by these third parties for their own account or as agent for us. These third parties generally derive their funding for hotel operating expenses, reserves for renovations, or FF&E reserves, and rents and returns due to us from hotel operating revenues.

 

We define coverage for each of our seven grouped hotel leases or operating agreements as combined total hotel sales minus all expenses which are not subordinated to minimum payments to us and the required FF&E reserve contributions, divided by the aggregate minimum payments to us. More detail regarding coverage, guarantees and other security features is presented in the table on pages 18 to 20. Three of our seven hotel combinations, representing 89 hotels, generated coverage of at least 1.0x during 2002 and the twelve months ended June 30, 2003. If a hotel combination does not generate coverage of at least 1.0x, our tenant or operator must supplement hotel operating results to make the minimum payments due to us to prevent default under the lease or operating agreement. In addition, 153 of our hotels comprising five combinations that represent 57.6% of our total investments, at cost, are operated under leases or management agreements which are subject to full or limited guarantees. These guarantees may provide us with continued payments if combined total hotel sales less total hotel expenses and required FF&E reserve payments fail to equal or exceed amounts due to us. Our tenants and managers or their affiliates may also supplement cash flow from our hotels in order to make payments to us and preserve their rights to continue operating our hotels. Guarantee or supplemental payments to us, if any, made under any of our leases or management agreements, do not subject us to repayment obligations.

 

As of June 30, 2003, all rents and return payments due under the seven agreements, including those payments due under leases or operating agreements whose hotels have generated less than 1.0x coverage during 2003, had been received. However, the rent due on and after July 1, 2003, for 24 hotels, under a lease with the subsidiary of Prime Hospitality Corporation (Prime) remains unpaid.  That lease requires minimum rent of $1,983 per month. On July 2, 2003, we declared Prime in default of its lease obligations for non-payment of rent. Simultaneously, we exercised our rights to retain certain collateral security we held for the Prime lease obligations, including security and guarantee deposits of $42,075 (which were not escrowed) and FF&E reserves of $4,271 (which were previously escrowed). Prime management and franchise agreements for these 24 hotels are subordinated to our lease obligations. Accordingly, we have the right to install a new manager and to rebrand these hotels. We have not yet determined whether to change the management of these hotels or their brand. The income and cash flows from these hotels currently are less than the rents we previously received from the Prime lease and, accordingly, our future income from these hotels is expected to decline.

 

The effectiveness of various security features included in our other leases and operating agreements to provide uninterrupted payments to us is not assured, particularly if the current travel patterns continue at depressed levels for extended periods. Some of our leases and guarantees require our tenants, subtenants and guarantors to maintain

 

14



 

minimum net worths, as defined in the documents. At December 31, 2002 and June 30, 2003, the Barcelo Crestline subtenants and the guarantor under the Candlewood lease, as described in charts on pages 18 and 19, respectively, each had net worth less than was required by our sublease and guaranty documents. In March 2003, we granted limited waivers of these net worth requirements while we negotiate with these subtenants and the guarantor regarding these matters. If our tenants, hotel managers or guarantors default in their payment obligations to us, our revenues and cash flows likely will decline.

 

Our Operating Liquidity and Resources

 

Our principal sources of funds for current expenses and distributions to shareholders are rents from leasing and the excess of hotel operating revenues over hotel operating expenses for hotels leased to our TRS. Minimum rents and minimum returns are received from our tenants and managers monthly in advance and percentage rents and returns are received either monthly or quarterly in arrears. This flow of funds has historically been sufficient for us to pay our operating expenses, including interest and distributions to shareholders.

 

We maintain our status as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code by meeting certain requirements, including the distribution of our taxable income to our shareholders. As a REIT, we do not expect to pay federal income taxes on the majority of our income. In 1999 federal legislation known as the REIT Modernization Act, or RMA, was enacted and became effective on January 1, 2001. The RMA, among other things, allows a REIT to lease hotels to a TRS if the hotel is managed by an independent third party. We entered our first transaction using a TRS on June 15, 2001. The income realized by our TRS in excess of the rent it pays to us will be subject to income tax at corporate tax rates. As and if the financial performance of the hotels operated for the account of our TRS improves, these taxes may become material, but the anticipated taxes are not material to our consolidated financial results at this time.

 

Our Investment and Financing Liquidity and Resources

 

Various percentages of total sales at most of our hotels are escrowed as reserves for future renovations and refurbishment, or FF&E reserves. As of June 30, 2003, there was approximately $43,881 on deposit in these escrow accounts, of which $31,722 was held directly by us and reflected on our balance sheet as restricted cash. The remaining $12,159 was held in accounts owned by our tenants and is not reflected on our balance sheet.  We have security and remainder interests in the accounts owned by our tenants. During the first six months of 2003, $15,282 was contributed to these accounts and $41,968 was spent from these accounts to renovate and refurbish our hotels. Following the defaults by Wyndham and Prime on their rent obligations we required Wyndham and Prime to transfer the balance in their FF&E reserve accounts to us. Wyndham transferred $6,928 to us in April 2003 and Prime transferred $4,271 to us in July 2003.

 

In order to fund acquisitions and to accommodate cash needs that may result from timing differences between our receipt of rents and the need to make distributions or pay operating expenses, we maintain a revolving credit facility with a group of commercial banks. Our credit facility matures in June 2005 and may be extended at our option to June 2006 upon our payment of an extension fee. Borrowings under the credit facility can be up to $350,000 and the credit facility includes a feature under which the maximum draw may expand to $700,000, in certain circumstances. Drawings under our credit facility are unsecured. Funds may be drawn, repaid and redrawn until maturity, and no principal repayment is due until maturity. Interest on borrowings under the credit facility is payable at a spread above LIBOR.

 

At June 30, 2003, we had $171,759 of cash and cash equivalents and $195,000 available on our revolving credit facility. On July 1, 2003, we acquired 16 Staybridge Suites® hotels from InterContinental for $185 million and on July 21, 2003, we purchased seven Candlewood Suites® hotels from Candlewood Hotel Corporation for $65 million. We funded these acquisitions with cash on hand and borrowings on our revolving credit facility. As of August 11, 2003, we have $215,000 outstanding against our revolver. We expect to use cash balances, borrowings under our credit facility or otherwise and net proceeds of offerings of equity or debt securities to fund future property acquisitions.

 

We have committed to fund improvements at 36 of our Courtyard by Marriott® hotels. These hotels contain 5,228 rooms, representing 51% of the total Courtyard by Marriott® rooms which we own. Approximately $19,178 of the estimated $44,178 cost for this project will be funded with amounts on deposit in FF&E reserve accounts. We plan to fund the remaining $25,000 with existing cash balances or borrowings under our credit facility. Our minimum annual rent for these hotels increases by 10% of the amount funded other than funding from the FF&E reserve accounts. In the

 

15



 

first six months of 2003, $14,880 was funded from amounts on deposit in FF&E reserve accounts and we funded $13,920 towards the project. The remaining funding is expected to take place before the end of the 2003.

 

In January 2003, we issued $175,000 of 6.75% senior notes, due 2013. Net proceeds after underwriting and other offering expenses were $172,584. In February 2003, we redeemed at par plus accrued interest, all $150,000 of our outstanding 8.5% senior notes due 2009. Our term debt maturities (other than our bank revolver) are as follows: $150,000 in 2008; $50,000 in 2010; $125,000 in 2012 and $175,000 in 2013. None of these debt obligations require principal or sinking fund payments prior to their maturity dates.

 

When amounts are outstanding on our revolving bank facility and, as the maturity dates of that credit facility and our term debts approach, we will explore alternatives for the repayment of amounts due. Such alternatives in the short term and long term may include incurring additional long term debt and issuing new equity securities. In March 2002, our shelf registration statement was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. As of June 30, 2003, we had $2,413,750 available on this shelf registration. An effective shelf registration allows us to issue public securities on an expedited basis, but it does not assure that there will be buyers for those securities. Although there can be no assurance that we will consummate any debt or equity offerings or other financings, we believe we will have access to various types of financing, including debt or equity offerings, with which to finance future acquisitions and to pay our debts and other obligations.

 

On July 2, 2003, a distribution of $0.72 per common share was declared with respect to 2003 second quarter results and will be paid to shareholders on August 21, 2003, using cash on hand and borrowings under our credit facility.

 

Debt Covenants

 

Our debt obligations at June 30, 2003, were limited to the outstanding balance of $155,000 on our revolving credit facility and our $500,000 of publicly issued term debt. Each issue of our term debt is governed by an indenture. This indenture and its supplements and our credit facility agreement contain a number of financial ratio covenants which generally restrict our ability to incur debts, including debts secured by mortgages on our properties in excess of calculated amounts, require us to maintain a minimum net worth, as defined, restrict our ability to make distributions under certain circumstances and require us to maintain other ratios, as defined. During the period from our incurrence of these debts through June 30, 2003, we believe we were in compliance with all of the covenants under our indenture and its supplements and our credit agreement.

 

Neither our indenture and its supplements nor our bank credit facility contain provisions for acceleration which could be triggered by our debt ratings. However, under our credit agreement, our senior debt rating is used to determine the fees and interest rate applied to borrowings.

 

Our public debt indenture and its supplements contain cross default provisions to any other debts of $20 million or more. Similarly, a default on our public debt indenture would constitute a default on our credit agreement.

 

As of June 30, 2003, we had no commercial paper, derivatives, swaps, hedges, guarantees, joint ventures or partnerships. As of June 30, 2003, we had no secured debt obligations. None of our debt documentation requires us to provide collateral security in the event of a ratings downgrade. We have no “off balance sheet” liabilities.

 

Property Leases, Operating Agreements and Tenant Operating Statistics

 

At August 11, 2003, we own 274 hotels which are grouped into ten combinations and leased to or managed by separate affiliates of hotel operating companies including Marriott International, Inc., Host Marriott Corporation, Barcelo Crestline Corporation, Prime Hospitality Corporation, Candlewood Hotel Company, Inc., BRE/Homestead Village LLC and InterContinental Hotels Group.

 

The tables on the following pages summarize the key terms of our leases and operating agreements and include statistics reported directly to us or derived from information reported to us by our tenants and operators. These statistics include occupancy, average daily rate, or ADR, revenue per available room, or RevPAR, and coverage of our minimum rents or owner’s priority returns. We consider these statistics and the lease or operating agreement security features also

presented in the tables on the following pages to be important measures of our tenants’ and operators’ success in operating our hotels and their ability to make continued payments to us. However, none of this third party reported information is a direct measure of our financial performance.

(1)          At June 30, 2003, 10 of the 35 hotels in this combination were leased to and operated by subsidiaries of Marriott.  The remaining 25 hotels were operated by subsidiaries of Marriott under a management contract with our TRS.  Marriott’s obligations under the lease and the management contracts are subject to cross-default provisions and Marriott has provided us with a limited guarantee of its lease and management obligations, including the obligation to pay minimum rents and returns to us.

(2)          Excludes expenditures made from FF&E reserves subsequent to our initial purchase.

(3)          Renewal options may be exercised by the tenant or manager for all, but not less than all, of the hotels within each combination of hotels.

(4)          Each of our leases and certain of our management contracts provide for payment to us of a percentage of increases in total hotel sales over base year levels as additional rent or return.

(5)          We define coverage as combined total hotel sales minus all expenses which are not subordinated to minimum payments to us and the required FF&E reserve contributions (which data is provided to us by our tenants or operators), divided by the minimum rent or return payments due to us.

(6)          Represents data for comparable fiscal periods for the hotels managed by Marriott.

Seasonality

 

Our hotels have historically experienced seasonal differences typical of the U.S. hotel industry with higher revenues in the second and third quarters of calendar years compared with the first and fourth quarters. This seasonality is not expected to cause material fluctuations in our income because our contractual lease and operating agreement require our tenants/managers to make the substantial portion of our rents and return payments to us in equal amounts throughout a year. Seasonality may affect our hotel operating revenues, but we do not expect seasonal variations to have a material impact upon our financial results of operations or upon our tenants’ or operators’ ability to meet their contractual obligations to us.

 

Item 3Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk (dollar amounts in thousands)

 

We are exposed to risks associated with market changes in interest rates.  We manage our exposure to this market risk by monitoring available financing alternatives.  Our strategy to manage exposure to changes in interest rates is unchanged since December 31, 2002.  Other than as described below we do not foresee any significant changes in our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates or in how we plan to manage this exposure in the near future.

 

Our revolving credit facility bears interest at floating rates and matures in 2005. At June 30, 2003, we have $155,000 outstanding and $195,000 available for drawing under our revolving credit facility. Repayments under our revolving credit facility may be made at any time without penalty.  We borrow in U.S. dollars and borrowings under our revolving bank credit facility are subject to interest at LIBOR plus a premium. Accordingly, we are vulnerable to changes in U.S. dollar based short term interest rates, specifically LIBOR.  A change in interest rates would not affect the value of this floating rate debt but would affect our operating results.  For example, the interest rate payable on our outstanding indebtedness of $155,000 at June 30, 2003, was 2.5% per annum.  The following table shows the impact a 10% change in interest rates would have on our floating rate debt outstanding as of June 30, 2003 (dollars in thousands):

The foregoing table shows the impact of an immediate change in floating interest rates.  If interest rates were to change gradually over time, the impact would be spread over time.  Our exposure to fluctuations in floating interest rates will increase or decrease in the future with increases or decreases in the outstanding amount under our revolving bank credit facility.

 

Item 4Controls 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 managing trustees, President and Chief Operating Officer and Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15. Based upon that evaluation, our managing trustees, President and Chief Operating Officer and Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them on material information required to be included in our periodic SEC filings.

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the second fiscal quarter of 2003 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.

THE WYNDHAM AND PRIME LEASE DEFAULTS MAY RESULT IN LOWER CASH FLOW TO US FROM THESE HOTELS OR HIGHER CAPITAL EXPENDITURES THAN WE NOW EXPECT OR WE MAY BE UNABLE TO RESOLVE THESE MATTERS WITHOUT LITIGATION, WHICH CAN BE EXPENSIVE AND CAN HAVE UNEXPECTED OUTCOMES. THESE UNEXPECTED RESULTS COULD OCCUR DUE TO MANY DIFFERENT CIRCUMSTANCES, SOME OF WHICH, SUCH AS CHANGES IN OUR TENANTS’ AND OPERATORS’ COSTS OR REVENUES OR CHANGES IN CAPITAL MARKETS OR THE ECONOMY GENERALLY, ARE BEYOND OUR CONTROL. THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS FORM 10-Q, INCLUDING THE INFORMATION UNDER THE HEADING “MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS” IDENTIFIES OTHER IMPORTANT FACTORS THAT COULD CAUSE ADVERSE CHANGES FROM OUR CURRENT EXPECTATIONS. FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS ARE ONLY EXPRESSIONS OF OUR PRESENT EXPECTATIONS AND INTENTIONS. FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS ARE NOT GUARANTEED TO OCCUR AND MAY NOT OCCUR. YOU SHOULD NOT PLACE UNDUE RELIANCE UPON FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS.
