Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

March 31, 2023

1. Organization

Xenia Hotels & Resorts, Inc. (the "Company" or "Xenia") is a Maryland corporation that invests in uniquely positioned luxury and upper upscale hotels and resorts with a focus on the top 25 lodging markets as well as key leisure destinations in the United States.

Substantially all of the Company's assets are held by, and all the operations are conducted through, XHR LP (the "Operating Partnership"). XHR GP, Inc. is the sole general partner of XHR LP and is wholly-owned by the Company. As of March 31, 2023, the Company collectively owned 95.9% of the common limited partnership units issued by the Operating Partnership ("Operating Partnership Units"). The remaining 4.1% of the Operating Partnership Units are owned by the other limited partners comprised of certain of our current executive officers and current and prior members of our Board of Directors and includes vested and unvested long-term incentive plan ("LTIP") partnership units. LTIP partnership units may or may not vest based on the passage of time and whether certain market-based performance objectives are met.

Xenia operates as a real estate investment trust ("REIT"). To qualify as a REIT, the Company cannot operate or manage its hotels. Therefore, the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries lease the hotel properties to XHR Holding, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively with its subsidiaries, "XHR Holding"), the Company's taxable REIT subsidiary ("TRS"), which engages third-party eligible independent contractors to manage the hotels.

As of March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company owned 32 and 34 lodging properties, respectively.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared on an accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP" or "GAAP") and in conformity with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") applicable to financial information. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include normal recurring adjustments, which management considers necessary for the fair presentation of the condensed consolidated balance sheets, condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), condensed consolidated statements of changes in equity and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the periods presented. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 2, 2023. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of actual operating results for the entire year.

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Operating Partnership, and XHR Holding. The Company's subsidiaries generally consist of limited liability companies, limited partnerships and the TRS. The effects of all inter-company transactions have been eliminated.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts in these condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and revenues and expenses. These estimates are prepared using management's best judgment, after considering past, current and expected future economic conditions. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Risks and Uncertainties

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company had a geographical concentration of revenues generated from hotels in the Orlando, Florida, Phoenix, Arizona and Houston, Texas markets that exceeded 10% of total revenues for the period then

ended. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company had a geographical concentration of revenues generated from hotels in the Orlando, Florida, and Phoenix, Arizona markets that exceeded 10% of total revenues for the period then ended. To the extent that there are adverse changes in these markets, or the industry sectors that operate in these markets, our business and operating results could be negatively impacted.

Consolidation

The Company evaluates its investments in partially owned entities to determine whether such entities may be a variable interest entity ("VIE") or voting interest entity. If the entity is a VIE, the determination of whether the Company is the primary beneficiary must be made. The primary beneficiary determination is based on a qualitative assessment as to whether the entity has (i) power to direct significant activities of the VIE and (ii) an obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could be potentially significant to the VIE. The Company will consolidate a VIE if it is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. The equity method of accounting is applied to entities in which the Company is not the primary beneficiary, or the entity is not a VIE and over which the Company does not have effective control but can exercise influence over the entity with respect to its operations and major decisions.

The Operating Partnership is a VIE. The Company's significant asset is its investment in the Operating Partnership, as described in Note 1, and consequently, substantially all of the Company's assets and liabilities represent those assets and liabilities of the Operating Partnership.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all demand deposits, money market accounts and investments in certificates of deposit and repurchase agreements purchased, and similar accounts with a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase, to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents at various banks and other financial institutions. The combined account balances at banking institutions generally exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insurance coverage and, as a result, there is a concentration of credit risk related to amounts on deposit in excess of FDIC insurance coverage. The Company monitors its concentration risk and reallocates funds among various institutions from time to time as determined appropriate based on perceived risks.

Restricted Cash and Escrows

Restricted cash primarily relates to furniture, fixtures and equipment replacement reserves ("FF&E reserves") as required per the terms of the Company's management and franchise agreements, cash held in restricted escrows for real estate taxes and insurance, capital spending reserves and, at times, disposition-related holdback escrows.

Acquisition of Real Estate

Investments in hotel properties, including land and land improvements, buildings and building improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment, and identifiable intangible assets, will generally be accounted for as asset acquisitions. Acquired assets are recorded at their relative fair value based on total accumulated costs of the acquisition. Direct acquisition-related costs are capitalized as a component of the acquired assets. This includes all costs related to finding, analyzing and negotiating a transaction.

The allocation of the purchase price is an area that requires judgment and significant estimates. Tangible and intangible assets typically include land, buildings and improvements, furniture and fixtures, inventory, acquired above market and below market leases, in-place lease value, advance bookings, and any assumed financing that is determined to be above or below market terms (all as applicable). Acquisition-date fair values of assets and assumed liabilities are determined based on replacement costs, appraised values, and estimated fair values using methods similar to those used by independent appraisers and that use appropriate discount and/or capitalization rates and available market information.

Impairment

Long-lived assets and intangibles

The Company assesses the carrying values of the respective long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of these assets may not be fully recoverable. Events or circumstances that may cause a review include, but are not limited to, when (1) a hotel property experiences a significant decrease in the market price of the long-lived asset, (2) a hotel property experiences a current or projected loss from operations combined with a history of

operating or cash flow losses, (3) it becomes more likely than not that a hotel property will be sold before the end of its useful life, (4) an accumulation of costs is significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition, construction or renovation of a long-lived asset, (5) adverse changes in demand occur for lodging at a specific property due to declining national or local economic conditions and/or new hotel construction in markets where the hotel is located, (6) there is a significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate that could affect the value of the long-lived asset and/or (7) there is a significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which a long-lived asset is being used or in its physical condition. If it is determined that the carrying value is not recoverable because the undiscounted cash flows do not exceed carrying value, the Company records an impairment charge to the extent that the carrying value exceeds fair value.

Involuntary Conversion

In August 2021, Hurricane Ida impacted Loews New Orleans Hotel located in New Orleans, Louisiana. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded additional hurricane-related repair and cleanup costs of $1.3 million which is included in impairment and other losses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the period then ended.

Insurance Recoveries

Insurance proceeds received in excess of recognized losses are treated as gain and are not recorded until contingencies are resolved. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded insurance proceeds related to damage sustained at Loews New Orleans Hotel during Hurricane Ida. These insurance proceeds were in excess of recognized losses and resulted in a gain on insurance recovery of $1.0 million which is included in other income (loss) on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the period then ended.

Disposition of Real Estate

The Company accounts for dispositions of real estate in accordance with Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2017-05, Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets ("Subtopic 610-20") for the transactions between the Company and unrelated third-parties that are not considered a customer in the ordinary course of business. Typically, the real estate assets disposed of do not represent the transfer of a business or contain a material amount of financial assets, if any. The real estate assets promised in a sales contract are typically nonfinancial assets (i.e. land or a leasehold interest in land, buildings, furniture, fixtures and equipment) or in substance nonfinancial assets. The Company recognizes a gain or loss in full when the real estate is sold, provided (a) there is a valid contract and (b) transfer of control has occurred.

Revenues

Revenues consist of amounts derived from hotel operations, including the sale of rooms for lodging accommodations, food and beverage, and other ancillary revenue generated by hotel amenities including spa, parking, golf, resort fees and other services.

Revenues are generated from various distribution channels including but not limited to direct bookings, global distribution systems and Internet travel sites. Room transaction prices are based on an individual hotel's location, room type and the bundle of services included in the reservation and are set by the hotel daily. Any discounts, including advanced purchase, loyalty point redemptions or promotions are recognized at the discounted rate whereas rebates and incentives are recorded as a reduction in rooms revenues when earned. Revenues from online channels are generally recognized net of commission fees, unless the end price paid by the guest is known. Rooms revenue is recognized over the length of stay that the hotel room is occupied by the guest. Cash received from a guest prior to check-in is recorded as an advance deposit and is generally recognized as rooms revenue at the time the room reservation has become non-cancellable, upon occupancy or upon expiration of the re-booking date. Advance deposits are included in other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Payment of any remaining balance is typically due from the guest upon check-out. Sales, use, occupancy, and similar taxes are collected and presented on a net basis (excluded from revenues).

Food and beverage transaction prices are based on the stated price for the specific food or beverage and varies depending on type, venue and hotel location. Service charges are typically a percentage of food and beverage prices and meeting space rental. Food and beverage revenue is recognized at the point in time in which the goods and/or services are rendered to the guest. Cash received in advance of an event is recorded as either a security or advance deposit. Security and advance deposits are recognized as revenue when it becomes non-cancellable or at the time the food and beverage goods and services are rendered to the guest. Payment for the remaining balance of food and beverage goods and services is due upon delivery and completion of such goods and services.

Parking and audio visual fees are recognized at the time services are provided to the guest. In parking and audio visual contracts in which we have control over the services provided, we are considered the principal in the agreement and recognize the related revenues gross of associated costs. If we do not have control over the services in the contract, we are considered the agent and record the related revenues net of associated costs.

Resort and amenity fees, spa, golf and other ancillary amenity revenues are recognized at the point in time the goods or services have been rendered to the guest at the stated price for the service or amenity.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company maintains a share-based incentive plan that provides for the grant of stock options, stock awards, restricted stock units, LTIP units and other equity-based awards. Share-based compensation is measured at the estimated fair value of the award on the date of grant, adjusted for forfeitures as they occur, and recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the longest vesting period for each grant for the entire award. The determination of fair value of these awards is subjective and involves significant estimates and assumptions including expected volatility of the Company's share price, expected dividend yield, expected term and assumptions of whether certain of these awards will achieve performance thresholds. Share-based compensation is included in general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) and capitalized in buildings and other improvements in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for certain employees that manage property developments, renovations and capital improvements.

Deferred Financing Costs

Financing costs related to the Revolving Line of Credit and long-term debt are recorded at cost and are amortized as interest expense on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest method, over the life of the related debt instrument unless there is a significant modification to the debt instrument. Financing costs related to the Senior Notes are amortized using the effective interest method. The balance of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the Revolving Line of Credit is included in other assets and unamortized deferred financing costs related to all other debt are presented as a reduction in debt, net of loan premiums, discounts and unamortized deferred financing costs on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, deferred financing costs related to the Revolving Line of Credit and the revolving credit facility that was refinanced in January 2023 were $9.6 million and $7.8 million, offset by accumulated amortization of $4.7 million and $6.4 million, respectively. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, deferred financing costs related to all other debt were $25.0 million and $26.3 million, offset by accumulated amortization of $9.5 million and $10.5 million, respectively.

4. Investment Properties

From time to time, the Company evaluates acquisition opportunities based on our investment criteria and/or the opportunistic disposition of our hotels in order to take advantage of market conditions or in situations where the hotels no longer fit within our strategic objectives.

Acquisitions

In March 2022, the Company acquired a fee-simple interest in the 346-room W Nashville located in Nashville, Tennessee for a purchase price of $328.5 million including acquisition costs and a $1.3 million credit related to an unfinished portion of the hotel provided by seller at closing.

The acquisition of W Nashville was funded with cash on hand and was accounted for as an asset acquisition resulting in the related acquisition costs being capitalized as part of the purchase price. The results of operations for W Nashville have been included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) since its acquisition date.

The Company recorded the identifiable assets and liabilities, including intangible assets and liabilities, acquired in the asset acquisition at the acquisition date relative fair value, which is based on the total accumulated costs of the acquisition. The following represents the purchase price allocation of the hotel acquired during the three months ended March 31, 2022 (in thousands):


	March 31, 2022
Land	$	36,364
Buildings and improvements	264,766
Furniture, fixtures, and equipment	31,091
Intangible and other assets(1)	232
Intangible liability(2)	(3,960)
Total purchase price(3)	$	328,493

(1)As part of the purchase price allocation for W Nashville, the Company allocated $0.1 million to advance bookings that will be amortized over 1.3 years as well as $0.1 million allocated to food inventory.

(2)As part of the purchase price allocation for W Nashville, the Company allocated $4.0 million to a liability associated with key money received by the seller from the third-party hotel manager. This liability will be amortized over 29.8 years and in the event of early termination is payable to the third-party hotel manager on a pro rata basis for the remaining portion of the term of the hotel management agreement.

(3)The total cost capitalized includes acquisition costs as the transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition.

Dispositions

In November 2021, the Company entered into an agreement to sell the 191-room Kimpton Hotel Monaco Chicago in Chicago, Illinois for a sale price of $36.0 million. The sale closed in January 2022 and did not result in a gain or loss after previously recording an impairment of $15.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2021. Net cash proceeds from the sale, after transaction closing costs, were $32.8 million.

Mortgage Loans

In January 2023, the Company repaid in full the $99.5 million outstanding balance on the mortgage loan collateralized by Renaissance Atlanta Waverly Hotel & Convention Center using proceeds from the 2023 Delayed Draw Term Loan. Also in January 2023, the Company amended the mortgage loan collateralized by Andaz Napa to update the variable index from one-month LIBOR to Term SOFR, increase the credit spread, increase the principal amount to $55 million and extend the maturity date through January 2028.

Of the total outstanding debt at March 31, 2023, none of the mortgage loans were recourse to the Company. The mortgage loan agreements require contributions to be made to FF&E reserves.

Corporate Credit Facilities

In January 2023, XHR LP (the "Borrower") entered into a new $675 million senior unsecured credit facility comprised of a $450 million revolving line of credit (the “Revolving Line of Credit”), a $125 million initial term loan (the "2023 Initial Term Loan) and a $100 million delayed draw term loan (the “2023 Delayed Draw Term Loan” and, together with the 2023 Initial Term Loan, the "2023 Term Loans") pursuant to a Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement, dated as of January 10, 2023, by and among the Borrower, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and the lenders and other parties party thereto (the “2023 Credit Agreement”). The Revolving Line of Credit and the 2023 Initial Term Loan refinanced in full the existing corporate credit facilities outstanding under the prior credit agreement, and as a result of such refinancing, the existing pledges of equity of certain subsidiaries securing obligations under the Company's prior credit facilities were released. The 2023 Delayed Draw Term Loan was funded on January 17, 2023 and was used to repay in full the mortgage loan collateralized by Renaissance Atlanta Waverly Hotel & Convention Center that was due August 2024. Proceeds from future Revolving Line of Credit borrowings may be used for working capital, general corporate or other purposes permitted by the 2023 Credit Agreement. The Revolving Line of Credit matures in January 2027 and can be extended up to an additional year. The interest rate on the Revolving Line of Credit and the 2023 Term Loans is based on a pricing grid with a range of 145 to 275 basis points over the applicable Term SOFR rate as determined by the Company’s leverage ratio, subject to a 10 basis point credit spread adjustment and a zero basis point floor. The 2023 Term Loans mature in March 2026, can be extended up to an additional year and bear interest rates consistent with the pricing grid on the Revolving Line of Credit.

As of March 31, 2023, there was no outstanding balance on the Revolving Line of Credit. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company incurred unused commitment fees of approximately $0.3 million and did not incur interest expense. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company incurred unused commitment fees of approximately $0.4 million and did not incur interest expense.

Senior Notes

The indentures governing the Senior Notes contain customary covenants that limit the Operating Partnership's ability and, in certain circumstances, the ability of its subsidiaries, to borrow money, create liens on assets, make distributions and pay dividends, redeem or repurchase stock, make certain types of investments, sell stock in certain subsidiaries, enter into agreements that restrict dividends or other payments from subsidiaries, enter into transactions with affiliates, issue guarantees of indebtedness and sell assets or merge with other companies. These limitations are subject to a number of important exceptions and qualifications set forth in the indentures. In connection with the entry into the 2023 Credit Agreement and the refinancing of the obligations under the prior corporate credit facilities, the collateral securing the Senior Notes was released in full. On and after January 10, 2023, the Senior Notes constitute unsecured obligations.

Financial Covenants

As of March 31, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants, current on all loan payments and not otherwise in default under the mortgage loans, the 2023 Credit Agreement or the Senior Notes.

Debt Outstanding

Total debt outstanding as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $1,445 million and had a weighted-average interest rate of 5.72% and 5.65% per annum, respectively. The following table shows scheduled principal payments and debt maturities for the next five years and thereafter (in thousands):


	As of March 31, 2023		Weighted- Average Interest Rate

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, in connection with the 2023 Credit Agreement and amended mortgage loan, the Company capitalized $5.6 million of deferred financing costs and expensed $1.5 million of legal fees which were included in other income (loss) on the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income for the period then ended.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, in connection with refinancing of the existing revolving credit facility, the repayment of the existing corporate credit facility term loan and the repayment of one mortgage loan, the Company wrote off unamortized deferred financing costs of $1.1 million, which is included in loss on extinguishment of debt on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the period then ended.

6. Fair Value Measurements

The Company defines fair value based on the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or the exit price that would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company uses a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which are described below:

•Level 1 - Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access.

•Level 2 - Observable inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

•Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

The Company has estimated the fair value of its financial and non-financial instruments using available market information and valuation methodologies it believes to be appropriate for these purposes. Considerable judgment and a high degree of subjectivity are involved in developing these estimates and, accordingly, they are not necessarily indicative of amounts that would be realized upon disposition.

Financial Instruments Not Measured at Fair Value

The table below represents the fair value of financial instruments presented at carrying values in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 (in thousands):


	March 31, 2023				December 31, 2022
	Carrying Value		Estimated Fair Value		Carrying Value		Estimated Fair Value
Total Mortgage and Term Loans	$	445,050	$	434,173	$	444,988	$	429,035
Senior Notes	1,000,000		930,323		1,000,000		912,823
Revolving Credit Facility	—		—		—		—
Revolving Line of Credit (2023)	—		—		—		—
Total	$	1,445,050	$	1,364,496	$	1,444,988	$	1,341,858

The Company estimated the fair value of its total debt, net of discounts, using a weighted-average effective interest rate of 5.80% and 6.24% per annum as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The assumptions reflect the terms currently available to borrowers with credit profiles similar to the Company's. The Company has determined that its debt instrument valuations are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

7. Income Taxes

The Company estimated the income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2023 using an estimated federal and state combined effective tax rate of 31.04% and recognized an income tax expense of $5.2 million.

The Company estimated the income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 using an estimated federal and state combined effective tax rate of 16.00% and recognized an income tax expense of $1.6 million.

8. Stockholders' Equity

Common Stock

The Company maintains an "At-the-Market" ("ATM") program pursuant to an Equity Distribution Agreement ("ATM Agreement") with Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated, Jefferies LLC, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc. and Raymond James & Associates, Inc. In accordance with the terms of the ATM Agreement, the Company may from time to time offer and sell shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $200 million. No shares were sold under the ATM Agreement during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 and, as of March 31, 2023, $200 million of common stock remained available for issuance. As of March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the Company had accumulated offering related costs included in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets of $1.1 million. These offering costs will be reclassified to additional paid in capital to offset proceeds from the sale of common stock. Any remaining accumulated offering costs will be written off when the existing registration statement expires in August 2023.

The Board of Directors has authorized a stock repurchase program (the "Repurchase Program") for up to $275 million of outstanding common stock in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, including pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 plans. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The Repurchase Program does not have an expiration date, may be suspended or discontinued at any time and does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of shares.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, 1,905,820 shares were repurchased under the Repurchase Program, at a weighted-average price of $14.03 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $26.7 million. No shares were purchased as part of the Repurchase Program during the three months ended March 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2023, the Company had approximately $139.7 million remaining under its share repurchase authorization.

Non-Controlling Interest of Common Units in Operating Partnership

As of March 31, 2023, the Operating Partnership had 4,672,702 LTIP Units outstanding, representing a 4.1% partnership interest held by the limited partners. Of the 4,672,702 LTIP Units outstanding at March 31, 2023, 1,803,513 units had vested and had yet to be converted or redeemed. Only vested LTIP Units may be converted to common units of the Operating Partnership, which in turn can be tendered for redemption per the terms of the partnership agreement of the Operating Partnership.

9. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income or loss available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income or loss available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus any shares that could potentially be outstanding during the period. Any anti-dilutive shares have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation.

Unvested share-based awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and are included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. Accordingly, distributed and undistributed earnings attributable to unvested share-based compensation have been excluded, as applicable, from net income or loss available to common stockholders used in the basic and diluted earnings per share calculations.

Income or loss allocated to non-controlling interests in the Operating Partnership has been excluded from the numerator and Operating Partnership Units and LTIP Units in the Operating Partnership have been omitted from the denominator for the purpose of computing diluted earnings per share since including these amounts in the numerator and denominator would have no impact.

The following table reconciles net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders to basic and diluted earnings per share (in thousands, except share and per share data):


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2023		2022

Each award of time-based Restricted Stock Units will vest as follows, subject to continued employment with the Company or its affiliates through each applicable vesting date: 33% on the first anniversary of the vesting commencement date, 33% on the second anniversary of the vesting commencement date, and 34% on the third anniversary of the vesting commencement date.

The performance-based Restricted Stock Units are designated twenty-five percent (25%) as absolute total stockholder return ("TSR") units and seventy-five percent (75%) as relative TSR share units. The absolute TSR share units vest based on achievement of varying levels of the Company's TSR over the three-year performance period. The relative TSR share units vest based on the ranking of the Company's TSR as compared to a defined peer group over the three-year performance period. Vesting of performance-based Restricted Stock Units is also subject to continued employment with the Company or its affiliates through the applicable vesting date.

LTIP Unit Grants

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved the issuance of the following awards under the 2015 Incentive Award Plan:

Each award of time-based LTIP Units will vest as follows, subject to continued employment with the Company or its affiliates through each applicable vesting date: 33% on the first anniversary of the vesting commencement date, 33% on the second anniversary of the vesting commencement date, and 34% on the third anniversary of the vesting commencement date.

A portion of each award of Class A LTIP Units are designated as a number of "base units". The base units are designated twenty-five percent (25%) as absolute TSR base units, and vest based on achievement of varying levels of the Company's TSR over the three-year performance period. The other seventy-five percent (75%) of the base units are designated as relative TSR base units and vest based on the ranking of the Company's TSR as compared to a defined peer group over the three-year performance period. Vesting of Class A LTIP Units is also subject to continued employment with the Company or its affiliates through the vesting date.

LTIP Units (other than unvested Class A LTIP Units), whether vested or unvested, receive the same quarterly per-unit distributions as common units in the Operating Partnership, which equal the per-share distributions on the common stock of the Company. Class A LTIP Units that have not vested receive a quarterly per-unit distribution equal to 10% of the distribution paid on common units in the Operating Partnership.

The following is a summary of the unvested incentive awards under the 2015 Incentive Award Plan as of March 31, 2023:


	2015 Incentive Award Plan Restricted Stock Units		2015 Incentive Award Plan LTIP Units(1)		Total

Weighted-average fair value of unvested shares/units	$	13.45	$	9.71	$	10.14

(1) Includes time-based LTIP Units and performance-based Class A LTIP Units.

(2) During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, 17,613 and 16,478 shares of common stock, respectively, were withheld by the Company upon the settlement of the applicable awards in order to satisfy federal and state tax withholding requirements on the vesting of Restricted Stock Units under the 2015 Incentive Award Plan.

The grant date fair values of the time-based Restricted Stock Units and time-based LTIP Units were determined based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date and compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The grant date fair values of performance-based awards are determined based on a Monte Carlo simulation method with the following assumptions and compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the performance period:


Performance Award Grant Date	Percentage of Total Award	Grant Date Fair Value by Component (in dollars)	Volatility	Interest Rate	Dividend Yield
February 24, 2023
Absolute TSR Restricted Stock Units	25%	$8.89	43.56%	4.58% - 5.11%	2.80%
Relative TSR Restricted Stock Units	75%	$9.08	43.56%	4.58% - 5.11%	2.80%
Absolute TSR Class A LTIP Units	25%	$8.89	43.56%	4.58% - 5.11%	2.80%
Relative TSR Class A LTIP Units	75%	$8.81	43.56%	4.58% - 5.11%	2.80%

The absolute and relative total stockholder returns are market conditions as defined by Accounting Standard Codification ("ASC") 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation. Market conditions include provisions wherein the vesting condition is met through the achievement of a specific value of the Company’s common stock, which is total stockholder return in this case. Market conditions differ from other performance awards under ASC 718 in that the probability of attaining the condition (and thus vesting of the units or shares) is reflected in the initial grant date fair value of the award.

Accordingly, it is not appropriate to reconsider the probability of vesting in the award subsequent to the initial measurement of the award, nor is it appropriate to reverse any of the expense if the condition is not met. As such, once the expense for these awards is measured, the expense must be recognized over the vesting period regardless of whether the target is met, or at what level the target is met. Expense may only be reversed if the holder of the instrument forfeits the award as a result of the holder's termination of service to the Company prior to vesting.

Management and Franchise Agreements

In order to maintain its qualification as a REIT, the Company cannot directly or indirectly operate any of its hotels. The Company leases each hotel to TRS lessees, which in turn engage property managers to manage the hotels. Each hotel is operated pursuant to a hotel management agreement with an independent third-party hotel management company.

Pursuant to the hotel management agreements, the management company controls the day-to-day operation of each hotel, and the Company is granted limited approval rights with respect to certain of the management company’s actions. The hotel management agreements typically contain a two-tiered fee structure, wherein the management company receives a base management fee and, if certain financial thresholds are met or exceeded, an incentive management fee. Many hotel management agreements also require the maintenance of a capital reserve fund based on a percentage of hotel revenues to be used for capital expenditures to maintain the quality of the hotels.

Management agreements for brand-managed hotels have terms generally ranging from 10 to 30 years and allow for one or more renewal periods at the option of the hotel manager. Assuming all renewal periods are exercised, the average remaining term is 27 years. Management agreements for franchised hotels generally contain initial terms between 15 and 20 years with an average remaining initial term of approximately six years.

The Company is generally limited in its ability to sell, lease or otherwise transfer hotels unless the transferee assumes the related hotel management agreement. However, most agreements include owner rights to terminate the agreements on the basis of the manager’s failure to meet certain performance-based metrics. Typically, these criteria are subject to the manager’s ability to ‘cure’ and avoid termination by payment to the Company of specified deficiency amounts (or, in some instances, waiver of the right to receive specified future management fees).

Franchise agreements contain initial terms of 20 years, with an average remaining initial term of approximately ten years. The franchise agreements require royalty fees based on a percentage of gross rooms revenue and, for certain hotels, an additional fee based on a percentage of gross food and beverage revenue. In addition, franchise agreements require fees for marketing, reservation or other program fees based on a percentage of gross rooms revenue. Many franchise agreements also require the maintenance of a capital reserve fund based on a percentage of hotel revenues to be used for capital expenditures to maintain the quality of the hotels.

The Company incurred management and franchise fee expenses of $10.2 million and $7.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, which are included on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the periods then ended.

Reserve Requirements

Certain franchise and management agreements require the Company to reserve funds relating to replacements and renewals of the hotels' furniture, fixtures and equipment. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had a balance of $43.5 million and $46.3 million, respectively, in reserves for such future improvements. This amount is included in restricted cash and escrows on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Renovation and Construction Commitments

As of March 31, 2023, the Company had various contracts outstanding with third-parties in connection with the renovation of certain of its hotel properties. The remaining commitments under these contracts as of March 31, 2023 totaled $11.0 million.

Legal

The Company is subject, from time to time, to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. While the resolution of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes, based on currently available information, that the final outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company.

12. Subsequent Events

In April and May 2023, the Company repurchased a total of 1,175,286 shares of common stock at a weighted-average price of $12.75 per share for total consideration of approximately $15.0 million.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes, which appear elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview

Xenia Hotels & Resorts, Inc. ("we", "us", "our", "Xenia" or the "Company") is a self-advised and self-administered REIT that invests in uniquely positioned luxury and upper upscale hotels and resorts with a focus on top 25 lodging as well as key leisure destinations in the United States. As of March 31, 2023, we owned 32 hotels, comprising 9,508 rooms, across 14 states. Our hotels are operated and/or licensed by industry leaders such as Marriott, Hyatt, Fairmont, Kimpton, Loews, Hilton, The Kessler Collection and Davidson.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Operating Partnership, and XHR Holding. The Company's subsidiaries generally consist of limited liability companies, limited partnerships and the TRS. The effects of all inter-company transactions have been eliminated. Corporate costs directly associated with our principal executive offices, personnel and other administrative costs are reflected as general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

Our Revenues and Expenses

Our revenue is primarily derived from hotel operations, including rooms revenue, food and beverage revenue and other revenue, which consists of parking, spa, resort fees, other guest services, and tenant leases, among other items.

Our operating costs and expenses consist of the costs to provide hotel services, including rooms expense, food and beverage expense, other direct and indirect operating expenses, and management and franchise fees. Rooms expense includes housekeeping wages and associated payroll taxes, room supplies, laundry services and front desk costs. Food and beverage expense primarily includes the cost of food, beverages and associated labor. Other direct and indirect hotel expenses include labor and other costs associated with the other operating department revenue, as well as labor and other costs associated with general and administrative departments, sales and marketing, information technology and telecommunications, repairs and maintenance and utility costs. We enter into management agreements with independent third-party management companies to operate our hotels. The management companies typically earn base and incentive management fees based on the levels of revenues and profitability of each individual hotel.

Key Indicators of Operating Performance

We measure hotel results of operations and the operating performance of our business by evaluating financial and nonfinancial metrics such as Revenue Per Available Room ("RevPAR"); average daily rate ("ADR"); occupancy rate ("occupancy");

earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization for real estate ("EBITDAre") and Adjusted EBITDAre; and funds from operations ("FFO") and Adjusted FFO. We evaluate individual hotel and company-wide performance with comparisons to budgets, prior periods and competing properties. RevPAR, ADR, and occupancy may be impacted by macroeconomic factors as well as regional and local economies and events. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for further discussion of the Company's use, definitions and limitations of EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDAre, FFO and Adjusted FFO and the reasons management believes these financial measures are useful to investors.

Results of Operations

Lodging Industry Overview

The U.S. lodging industry historically exhibits a strong correlation to U.S. GDP, which increased at an estimated annual rate of approximately 1.1% during the first quarter of 2023, according to the U.S. Department of Commerce, representing a decrease in the annual rate growth trend from the third and fourth quarters of 2022 of 3.2% and 2.6%, respectively. The increase during the first quarter reflected increases in consumer spending, exports, federal government spending, state and local government spending and nonresidential fixed investment that were partially offset by decreases in private inventory investment and residential fixed investment as well as increases in imports. In addition, the unemployment rate remained flat at 3.5% in March 2023 compared to December 2022 and September 2022. We continue to monitor and evaluate the challenges associated with inflationary pressures, rising interest rates, a potential domestic and/or global recession, the evolving workforce landscape and potential ongoing supply chain issues. The impact of these potential challenges could negatively impact the Company’s operating results as well as its ability to consummate acquisitions and dispositions of hotel properties in the near term.

Demand and new hotel supply increased 6.4% and 0.4%, respectively, during the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase in demand led to an increase in industry RevPAR of 16.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to 2022, which was driven by an increase in occupancy of 5.9% coupled with a 10.2% increase in ADR. All U.S. data for the three months ended March 31, 2023 are per industry reports.

First Quarter 2023 Overview

Our total portfolio RevPAR, which includes the results of hotels sold or acquired for the period of ownership by the Company, increased 24.7% to $179.55 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to $143.99 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase in our total portfolio RevPAR for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 was driven by strong RevPAR growth in both business transient and corporate group demand, robust leisure transient demand and by easier comparable performance during January and February of 2022 when the Omicron variant significantly impacted travel. Further, while leisure demand remains at historically high levels, demand has continued to shift to a more traditional mix within our portfolio.

Net income increased 219.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2022, which was primarily attributed to an increase in hotel operating income of $19.2 million from the 31-comparable hotels owned during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, other income of $1.3 million in 2023 compared to other loss of $0.8 million in 2022, a $1.3 million reduction in impairment and other losses and a $1.1 million increase in hotel operating income attributed to the acquisition of W Nashville. These increases were partially offset by a $3.6 million increase in income tax expense, a $3.2 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense, a $1.6 million increase in interest expense, a $1.2 million increase in general and administrative expenses, a $1.2 million reduction in hotel operating income attributed to the three hotels sold in 2022, a $0.8 million increase in loss on extinguishment of debt and a $0.1 million increase in other operating expenses.

Adjusted EBITDAre and Adjusted FFO attributable to common stock and unit holders for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased 42.8% and 55.5% respectively, compared to three months ended March 31, 2022. Refer to "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for the definition of these financial measures, a description of the reasons we believe they are useful to investors as key supplemental measures of our operating performance and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to net income (loss) attributable to common stock and unit holders.

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2023		2022		Increase / (Decrease)		% Change
Revenues:
Rooms revenues	$	153,645	$	123,198	$	30,447	24.7	%

Total revenues	$	268,973	$	210,347	$	58,626	27.9	%

Rooms revenues

Rooms revenues increased by $30.4 million, or 24.7%, to $153.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $123.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 driven by strong RevPAR growth in both business transient and corporate group demand and robust leisure transient demand. Additionally, the acquisition of W Nashville in March 2022 contributed to the increase in rooms revenue by $5.4 million. The increase is net of a reduction of $3.3 million attributed to the sale of Kimpton Hotel Monaco Chicago in January 2022, Bohemian Hotel Celebration, Autograph Collection in October 2022 and Kimpton Hotel Monaco Denver in December 2022 (collectively, "the three hotels sold in 2022"). Rooms revenue increased $28.4 million, or 23.8%, for remainder of our 31-comparable hotels, which was attributed to a 23.8% increase in RevPAR compared to 2022, driven by a 5.1% increase in ADR and an increase in occupancy of 1,010 basis points.

Food and beverage revenues

Food and beverage revenues increased by $28.4 million, or 41.9%, to $96.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $67.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily due to significant growth in business transient and

corporate group demand. Additionally, the acquisition of W Nashville in March 2022 contributed to the increase in food and beverage revenue by $4.5 million. This increase is net of a reduction of $1.7 million attributed to the three hotels sold in 2022. Food and beverage revenues increased $25.6 million, or 39.0%, for the remainder of our 31-comparable hotels.

Other revenues

Other revenues decreased by $0.2 million, or 1.1%, to $19.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $19.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. This decrease was primarily attributable to a $1.8 million reduction in revenues from cancellation and attrition for our 31-comparable hotels as well as a reduction of $0.4 million attributed to the three hotels sold in 2022. These decreases are net of a $1.4 million increase in other revenue, excluding revenue from cancellations and attrition for our 31-comparable hotels and a $0.5 million increase attributed to the acquisition of W Nashville in March 2022.

Hotel Operating Expenses

Hotel operating expenses consist of the following (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2023		2022		Increase		% Change
Hotel operating expenses:
Rooms expenses	$	36,203	$	29,217	$	6,986	23.9	%

Total hotel operating expenses	$	179,276	$	141,607	$	37,669	26.6	%

Total hotel operating expenses

In general, hotel operating costs generally correlate to increases or decreases in revenues and fluctuate based on various factors, including occupancy, labor costs, utilities and insurance costs. Luxury and upper upscale hotels generally have higher fixed costs than other types of hotels due to the level of services and amenities provided to guests.

Total hotel operating expenses increased $37.7 million, or 26.6%, to $179.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $141.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Additionally, W Nashville contributed to the increase in hotel operating expenses by $8.6 million. The increase in total hotel operating expenses is net of a reduction of $4.2 million attributed to the three hotels sold in 2022. Hotel operating expenses increased $33.1 million, or 24.2%, for the remainder of our 31-comparable hotels, which was attributed to the increase in total revenues in 2023 compared to 2022.

Corporate and Other Expenses

Corporate and other expenses consist of the following (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2023		2022		Increase / (Decrease)		% Change

Total corporate and other expenses	$	55,936	$	51,001	$	4,935	9.7	%

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $3.2 million, or 10.4%, to $33.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $30.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. This increase was primarily attributed to the acquisition of

W Nashville in March 2022 and to the timing of fully depreciated assets during the comparable periods. These increases are net of a reduction in depreciation expense related to the three hotels sold in 2022.

Real estate taxes, personal property taxes and insurance

Real estate taxes, personal property taxes and insurance expense increased $1.6 million, or 14.9%, to $12.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $10.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. This increase was primarily attributed to increases in insurance premiums of $0.9 million, an increase related to the acquisition of W Nashville in March 2022 of $0.7 million and a $0.1 million increase in real estate taxes. These increases are net of a $0.2 million reduction related to the three hotels sold in 2022.

Ground lease expense

Ground lease expense increased $0.2 million, or 37.3%, to $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in percentage rent in 2023, which is based on revenues at certain hotels with ground leases, compared to 2022.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses increased $1.2 million, or 15.4%, to $8.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $7.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily due to increases in the number of corporate employees, employee-related expenses and increased incentive compensation.

Impairment and other losses

Other income for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was primarily attributable to interest income from higher interest rates on cash balances, partially offset by non-capitalizable loan issuance costs. The other loss for the three months ended March 31 2022 was primarily attributable to costs associated with the termination of two interest rate hedges, partially offset by a gain from the receipt of insurance proceeds in excess of recognized losses associated with hurricane-related damage at Loews New Orleans Hotel.

Interest expense

Interest expense increased $1.6 million, or 7.8%, to $22.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $20.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to rising interest rates on variable rate debt, partially offset by a reduction in interest payments to swap counterparties.

Loss on extinguishment of debt

The loss on extinguishment of debt of $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was attributable to the write-off of certain unamortized debt issuance costs associated with the existing revolving credit facility, which was refinanced with the Revolving Line of Credit in January 2023, as well as the early repayments of the corporate credit facility term loan that was due to mature in September 2024 and one mortgage loan. The loss on extinguishment of debt of $0.3 million for the three months

ended March 31, 2022 was attributable to the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs upon the early repayment of one mortgage loan.

Income tax expense

Income tax expense increased $3.6 million, or 224.7%, to $5.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $1.6 million for the three months March 31, 2022. The increase from prior year was primarily attributed to higher projected taxable income and the acquisition of W Nashville in March 2022 coupled with an increase in the effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2023 compared to 2022. These increases were partially offset by the use of state net operating loss carryforwards.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements from cash on hand, cash flow from hotel operations, use of our unencumbered asset base, asset dispositions, borrowings under our Revolving Line of Credit, and proceeds from various capital market transactions, including issuances of debt and equity securities. The objectives of our cash management policy are to maintain the availability of liquidity and minimize operational costs.

On a long-term basis, our objectives are to maximize revenue and profits generated by our existing properties and acquired hotels, to further enhance the value of our portfolio and produce an attractive current yield, as well as to generate sustainable and predictable cash flow from our operations to distribute to our common stock and unit holders. We believe successful improvements to the performance of our portfolio will result in increased operating cash flows over time. Additionally, we may meet our long-term liquidity requirements through additional borrowings, the issuance of equity and debt securities, which may not be available on advantageous terms or at all, and/or proceeds from the sales of hotels.

Liquidity

As of March 31, 2023, we had $283.2 million of consolidated cash and cash equivalents and $58.2 million of restricted cash and escrows. The restricted cash as of March 31, 2023 primarily consisted of $43.5 million related to FF&E reserves as required per the terms of our management and franchise agreements, $8.2 million in deposits made for capital projects, cash held in restricted escrows of $4.8 million primarily for real estate taxes and mortgage escrows and $1.7 million for disposition-related holdbacks.

As of March 31, 2023, there was no outstanding balance on our Revolving Line of Credit and the full $450 million is available to be borrowed. Proceeds from future borrowings may be used for working capital, general corporate or other purposes.

As of March 31, 2023, we had $200 million available for sale under the ATM Agreement.

We remain committed to increasing total shareholder returns through the following priorities: (1) maximize revenue and profits generated by our existing properties and acquired hotels, including the continued focused management of expenses, (2) further enhance the value of our portfolio and produce an attractive current yield and (3) generate sustainable and predictable cash flow from our operations to distribute to our common stock and unit holders. Future determinations regarding the declaration and payment of dividends will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on then-existing conditions, including our results of operations, payout ratio, capital requirements, financial condition, prospects, contractual arrangements, any limitations on payment of dividends present in our current and future debt agreements, maintaining our REIT status and other factors that our Board of Directors may deem relevant.

Debt and Loan Covenants

As of March 31, 2023, our outstanding total debt was $1.4 billion and had a weighted-average interest rate of 5.72%.

Mortgage Loans

Our mortgage loan agreements require contributions to be made to FF&E reserves and the compliance with certain financial covenants.

Corporate Credit Facilities

In January 2023, XHR LP (the "Borrower") entered into a new $675 million senior unsecured credit facility comprised of a $450 million revolving line of credit (the "Revolving Line of Credit”), a $125 million term loan (the "2023 Initial Term Loan") and a $100 million delayed draw term loan (the “2023 Delayed Draw Term Loan” and, together with the 2023 Initial Term Loan, the "2023 Term Loans") pursuant to a Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement, dated as of January 10, 2023, by and among the Borrower, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and the lenders and other parties thereto (the “2023 Credit Agreement”). The Revolving Line of Credit and the 2023 Initial Term Loan refinanced in full our existing corporate credit facilities outstanding under the Company's prior credit agreement, and as a result of such refinancing, the existing pledges of equity of certain subsidiaries securing obligations under the prior credit facilities were released. The 2023 Delayed Draw Term Loan was funded on January 17, 2023 and was used to repay in full the mortgage loan collateralized by Renaissance Atlanta Waverly Hotel & Convention Center that was due August 2024. Proceeds from future Revolving Line of Credit borrowings may be used for working capital, general corporate or other purposes permitted by the 2023 Credit Agreement. The Revolving Line of Credit matures in January 2027 and can be extended up to an additional year. The interest rate on the Revolving Line of Credit and the 2023 Term Loans is based on a pricing grid with a range of 145 to 275 basis points over the applicable Term SOFR rate as determined by the Company’s leverage ratio, subject to a 10 basis point credit spread adjustment and a zero basis point floor. The 2023 Term Loans mature in March 2026, can be extended up to an additional year, and bear interest rates consistent with the pricing grid on the Revolving Line of Credit.

Senior Notes

Debt Covenants

As of March 31, 2023, we were in compliance with all debt covenants, current on all loan payments and not otherwise in default under the mortgage loans, the 2023 Credit Agreement or the Senior Notes.

Capital Markets

We maintain an established "At-the-Market" ("ATM") program pursuant to an Equity Distribution Agreement ("ATM Agreement") with Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated, Jefferies LLC, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc. and Raymond James & Associates, Inc. In accordance with the terms of the ATM Agreement, we may from time to time offer and sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price up to $200 million. No shares were sold under the ATM Agreement during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and, as of March 31, 2023, $200 million of common stock remained available for issuance.

Our Board of Directors has authorized a stock repurchase program (the "Repurchase Program") for up to $275 million of outstanding common stock in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, including pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 plans. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The Repurchase Program does not have an expiration date, may be suspended or discontinued at any time and does not obligate us to acquire any particular amount of shares.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, 1,905,820 shares were repurchased under the Repurchase Program, at a weighted-average price of $14.03 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $26.7 million. No shares were purchased as part of the Repurchase Program during the three months ended March 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2023, we had approximately $139.7 million remaining under our share repurchase authorization.

Capital Expenditures and Reserve Funds

We maintain each of our properties in good repair and condition and in conformity with applicable laws and regulations, franchise agreements and management agreements. Routine capital expenditures are administered by the hotel management companies. However, we have approval rights over the capital expenditures as part of the annual budget process for each of our properties. From time to time, certain of our hotels may undergo renovations as a result of our decision to expand or upgrade portions of the hotels, such as guest rooms, public space, meeting space and/or restaurants, in order to better compete with other

hotels in our markets. In addition, upon the acquisition of a hotel we may be required to complete a property improvement plan in order to bring the hotel into compliance with the respective brand standards. If permitted by the terms of the management agreement, funding for a renovation will first come from the FF&E reserves. We are obligated to maintain reserve funds with respect to certain agreements with our hotel management companies, franchisors and lenders to provide funds, generally 3% to 5% of hotel revenues, sufficient to cover the cost of certain capital improvements to the hotels and to periodically replace and update furniture, fixtures and equipment. Certain of the agreements require that we reserve this cash in separate accounts. To the extent that the FF&E reserves are not available or adequate to cover the cost of the renovation, we may fund a portion of the renovation with cash on hand, borrowings from our Revolving Line of Credit and/or other sources of available liquidity. We have been, and will continue to be, prudent with respect to our capital spending, taking into account our cash flows from operations.

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had a total of $43.5 million and $46.3 million, respectively, of FF&E reserves. During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 we made total capital expenditures of $11.6 million and $7.5 million, respectively.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2023, we had various contracts outstanding with third-parties in connection with the renovation of certain of our hotel properties. The remaining commitments under these contracts as of March 31, 2023 totaled $11.0 million.

Sources and Uses of Cash

Our principal sources of cash are cash flows from operations, borrowing under debt financings, including draws on our Revolving Line of Credit, and from various types of equity offerings or the sale of our hotels. Along with rising rates of inflation and interest rates and implications of a potential recession and related market impacts, certain sources of capital may not be as readily available to us as they have been historically or may come at higher costs. Our principal uses of cash are asset acquisitions, capital investments, routine debt service and debt repayments, operating costs, corporate expenses and dividends. We may also elect to use cash to buy back our common stock in the future under the Repurchase Program.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2022

The table below presents summary cash flow information for the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2023		2022
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	30,313	$	32,572
Net cash used in investing activities	(10,563)		(301,092)
Net cash used in financing activities	(44,300)		(66,476)

Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, at beginning of period	365,910		554,231
Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, at end of period	$	341,360	$	219,235

Operating

•Cash provided by operating activities was $30.3 million and $32.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Cash flows from operating activities generally consist of the net cash generated by our hotel operations, partially offset by the cash paid for interest, corporate expenses and other working capital changes. Our cash flows from operating activities may also be affected by changes in our portfolio resulting from hotel acquisitions, dispositions or renovations. The net decrease in cash from operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022 was primarily due to increases in accounts receivable and other assets as well as decreases in accounts payable and other liabilities. Refer to the "Results of Operations" section for further discussion of our operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

Investing

•Cash used in investing activities was $10.6 million and $301.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was attributed to $11.6 million in capital improvements at our hotel properties, which was partially offset by $1.1 million of performance guaranty payments received that were recorded as a reduction in the respective hotel's cost basis. Cash used in

investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was attributed to $328.5 million for the acquisition of W Nashville and $7.5 million in capital improvements at our hotel properties, which was partially offset by net proceeds of $32.8 million from the disposition of Kimpton Hotel Monaco Chicago, $1.2 million of proceeds from property insurance and $0.9 million of performance guaranty payments received that were recorded as a reduction in the respective hotel's cost basis.

Financing

•Cash used in financing activities was $44.3 million and $66.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was attributed to the repayment of the existing corporate credit facility term loan maturing in 2024 totaling $125.0 million, the repayment of mortgage debt totaling $99.5 million, the repurchase of common stock totaling $26.7 million, the payment of $11.5 million in dividends, payment of loan fees and issuance costs of $5.6 million, principal payments of mortgage debt totaling $0.9 million and shares redeemed to satisfy tax withholding on vested share-based compensation of $0.6 million, which was partially offset by proceeds from the 2023 Term Loans totaling $225.0 million and proceeds from the amendment of one mortgage loan of $0.4 million. Cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was attributed the repayment of mortgage debt totaling $65.0 million, principal payments of mortgage debt totaling $0.9 million and shares redeemed to satisfy tax withholding on vested share-based compensation of $0.5 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We consider the following non-GAAP financial measures to be useful to investors as key supplemental measures of our operating performance: EBITDA, EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDAre, FFO and Adjusted FFO. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered along with, but not as alternatives to, net income or loss, operating profit, cash from operations, or any other operating performance measure as prescribed per GAAP.

EBITDA, EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre

EBITDA is a commonly used measure of performance in many industries and is defined as net income or loss (calculated in accordance with GAAP) excluding interest expense, provision for income taxes (including income taxes applicable to sale of assets) and depreciation and amortization. We consider EBITDA useful to investors in evaluating and facilitating comparisons of our operating performance between periods and between REITs by removing the impact of our capital structure (primarily interest expense) and asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) from our operating results, even though EBITDA does not represent an amount that accrues directly to common stockholders. In addition, EBITDA is used as one measure in determining the value of hotel acquisitions and dispositions and, along with FFO and Adjusted FFO, is used by management in the annual budget process for compensation programs.

We calculate EBITDAre in accordance with standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("Nareit"). Nareit defines EBITDAre as EBITDA plus or minus losses and gains on the disposition of depreciated property, including gains or losses on change of control, plus impairments of depreciated property and of investments in unconsolidated affiliates caused by a decrease in the value of depreciated property in the affiliate, and adjustments to reflect the entity's share of EBITDAre of unconsolidated affiliates.

We further adjust EBITDAre to exclude the impact of non-controlling interests in consolidated entities other than our Operating Partnership Units because our Operating Partnership Units may be redeemed for common stock. We also adjust EBITDAre for certain additional items such as depreciation and amortization related to corporate assets, hotel property acquisition, terminated transaction and pre-opening expenses, amortization of share-based compensation, non-cash ground rent and straight-line rent expense, the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles, and other costs we believe do not represent recurring operations and are not indicative of the performance of our underlying hotel property entities. We believe it is meaningful for investors to understand Adjusted EBITDAre attributable to all common stock and unit holders. We believe Adjusted EBITDAre attributable to common stock and unit holders provides investors with another useful financial measure in evaluating and facilitating comparison of operating performance between periods and between REITs that report similar measures.

FFO and Adjusted FFO

We calculate FFO in accordance with standards established by Nareit, as amended in the December 2018 Restatement White Paper, which defines FFO as net income or loss (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding real estate-related depreciation, amortization and impairments, gains or losses from sales of real estate, the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles, similar adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and consolidated variable interest entities, and items classified by GAAP as extraordinary. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market

conditions, most industry investors consider presentations of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. We believe that the presentation of FFO provides useful supplemental information to investors regarding operating performance by excluding the effect of real estate depreciation and amortization, gains or losses from sales for real estate, impairments of real estate assets, extraordinary items and the portion of these items related to unconsolidated entities, all of which are based on historical cost accounting and which may be of lesser significance in evaluating current performance. We believe that the presentation of FFO can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between REITs, even though FFO does not represent an amount that accrues directly to common stockholders. Our calculation of FFO may not be comparable to measures calculated by other companies who do not use the Nareit definition of FFO or do not calculate FFO per diluted share in accordance with Nareit guidance. Additionally, FFO may not be helpful when comparing us to non-REITs. We present FFO attributable to common stock and unit holders, which includes our Operating Partnership Units because our Operating Partnership Units may be redeemed for common stock. We believe it is meaningful for the investor to understand FFO attributable to common stock and unit holders.

We further adjust FFO for certain additional items that are not in Nareit’s definition of FFO such as hotel property acquisition, terminated transaction and pre-opening expenses, amortization of debt origination costs and share-based compensation, non-cash ground rent and straight-line rent expense, and other items we believe do not represent recurring operations. We believe that Adjusted FFO provides investors with useful supplemental information that may facilitate comparisons of ongoing operating performance between periods and between REITs that make similar adjustments to FFO and is beneficial to investors’ complete understanding of our operating performance.

Use and Limitations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA, EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDAre, FFO, and Adjusted FFO do not represent cash generated from operating activities under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income or loss, operating profit, cash flows from operations or any other operating performance measure prescribed by GAAP. Although we present and use EBITDA, EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDAre, FFO and Adjusted FFO because we believe they are useful to investors in evaluating and facilitating comparisons of our operating performance between periods and between REITs that report similar measures, the use of these non-GAAP measures has certain limitations as analytical tools. These non-GAAP financial measures are not measures of our liquidity, nor are they indicative of funds available to meet our cash needs, including our ability to fund capital expenditures, contractual commitments, working capital, service debt or make cash distributions. These measurements do not reflect cash expenditures for long-term assets and other items that we have incurred and will incur. These non-GAAP financial measures may include funds that may not be available for discretionary use due to functional requirements to conserve funds for capital expenditures, property acquisitions, and other commitments and uncertainties. These non-GAAP financial measures as presented may not be comparable to non-GAAP financial measures as calculated by other real estate companies.

We compensate for these limitations by separately considering the impact of the excluded items to the extent they are material to operating decisions or assessments of our operating performance. Our reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP financial measures, and our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), include interest expense, and other excluded items, all of which should be considered when evaluating our performance, as well as the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures reflect additional ways of viewing our operations that we believe, when viewed with our GAAP results and the reconciliations to the corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business than could be obtained absent this disclosure. We strongly encourage investors to review our financial information in its entirety and not to rely on a single financial measure.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual amounts may differ significantly from these estimates

and assumptions. We evaluate our estimates, assumptions and judgments to confirm that they are reasonable and appropriate on an ongoing basis, based on information that is then available to us as well as our experience relating to various matters. All of our significant accounting policies, including certain critical accounting policies, are disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and Note 2 in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements included herein.

Seasonality

Demand in the lodging industry is affected by recurring seasonal patterns, which are greatly influenced by overall economic cycles, the geographic locations of the hotels and the customer mix at the hotels. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and continuing recovery has and may continue to disrupt our historical seasonal patterns.

Subsequent Events

In April and May 2023, 1,175,286 shares were repurchased under the Repurchase Program, at a weighted-average price of $12.75 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $15.0 million.

New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Implemented

See Note 2 in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements included herein for additional information related to recently issued accounting pronouncements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are subject to market risk associated with changes in interest rates both in terms of variable rate debt and the price of new fixed rate debt upon maturity of existing debt and for acquisitions. Our exposure to market risk has not materially changed from what we previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. If market rates of interest on all of our variable rate debt as of March 31, 2023 permanently increased or decreased by 1%, the increase or decrease in interest expense on our variable rate debt would decrease or increase future earnings and cash flows by approximately $2.8 million per annum. If market rates of interest on all of our variable rate debt as of December 31, 2022 permanently increased or decreased by 1%, the increase or decrease in interest expense on our variable rate debt would decrease or increase future earnings and cash flows by approximately $2.8 million per annum.

With regard to our variable rate financing, we assess interest rate cash flow risk by continually identifying and monitoring changes in interest rate exposures that may adversely impact expected future cash flows and by evaluating hedging opportunities. We maintain risk management control systems to monitor interest rate cash flow risk attributable to both of our outstanding or forecasted debt obligations as well as our potential offsetting hedge positions. The risk management control systems involve the use of analytical techniques, including cash flow sensitivity analysis, to estimate the expected impact of changes in interest rates on our future cash flows.

We monitor interest rate risk using a variety of techniques, including periodically evaluating fixed interest rate quotes on variable rate debt and the costs associated with converting the debt to fixed rate debt. Also, existing fixed and variable rate loans that are scheduled to mature in the near term are evaluated for possible early refinancing or extension due to consideration given to current interest rates. We have taken significant steps in reducing our variable rate debt exposure by paying off property-level mortgage debt subject to floating rates. In the past, we have used and, may in the future, use interest rate hedges to manage our exposure to interest rates. Refer to Note 5 in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements included herein, for our debt principal amounts and weighted-average interest rates by year and expected maturity to evaluate the expected cash flows and sensitivity to interest rate changes.

We may in the future use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to changes in interest rates on loans secured by our properties. To the extent we do, we are exposed to credit risk and market risk. Credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. We maintain credit policies with regard to our counterparties that we believe reduce overall credit risk. These policies include evaluating and monitoring our counterparties' financial condition, including their credit ratings, and entering into agreements with counterparties based on established credit limit policies. Market risk is the adverse effect on the value of a financial instrument that results from a change in interest rates. The market risk associated with interest rate contracts is managed by establishing and monitoring parameters that limit the types and degree of market risk that may be undertaken.

The following table provides information about our financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. For debt obligations outstanding as of March 31, 2023, the following table presents principal repayments and related weighted-average interest rates by contractual maturity dates (in thousands):

As required by Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) under the Exchange Act, our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer evaluated, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, were effective at a reasonable assurance level for the purpose of ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in this quarterly report is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of the Exchange Act and is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Part II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are involved in various claims and lawsuits arising in the normal course of business, including proceedings involving tort and other general liability claims, related to our ownership of hotel properties. Most occurrences involving liability are covered by insurance with solvent insurance carriers. We recognize a liability when we believe a loss is probable and reasonably estimable. We currently believe that the ultimate outcome of any such lawsuits and proceedings will not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.
