DALLAS, Dec. 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Braemar Hotels & Resorts Inc. (NYSE: BHR) (the "Company" or "Braemar"), announced today its preliminary expectations for net income and Adjusted EBITDAre for the fourth quarter ending December 31, 2022.

The Company reported today a preliminary estimated range of net income of approximately $0.5 million to $3.5 million and a preliminary estimated range of Adjusted EBITDAre of $36.0 million to $39.0 million.  The lower end of this preliminary estimated range of Adjusted EBITDAre is higher than the current average of the estimates published by the equity research analysts that cover the Company. As previously announced, the Company's RevPAR for the month of October was $280, reflecting an increase of approximately 14% compared to October of 2019 and the Company's RevPAR for the month of November was $253, reflecting an increase of approximately 15% compared to November of 2019. The Company currently expects its RevPAR for the month of December to be at a similar premium to 2019.

We use certain non-GAAP measures, in addition to the required GAAP presentations, as we believe these measures improve the understanding of our operational results and make comparisons of operating results among peer real estate investment trusts more meaningful. Non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release, which should not be relied upon as a substitute for GAAP measures, are EBITDA, EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre. Please refer to our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K for a more detailed description of how these non-GAAP measures are calculated. The reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to the closest GAAP measures are provided below and provide further details of our results for the period being reported.

The following table contains a reconciliation of the Company's preliminary estimated GAAP net income (loss) to the Company's preliminary estimated EBITDA, EBITDAre, and Adjusted EBITDAre:

The preliminary estimated results for the fourth quarter ending December 31, 2022 included in this release, which are the responsibility of management, were prepared by the Company's management in connection with the preparation of the Company's financial statements and are based upon preliminary hotel operating results, preliminary corporate level expenses and a number of subjective judgements and assumptions. Additional items that may require adjustments to the Company's preliminary estimated financial information may be identified and could result in material changes to the Company's preliminary estimated results. The Company has provided ranges, rather than specific amounts, for the preliminary estimated results described above primarily because the Company's closing procedures for the fourth quarter ending December 31, 2022 are not yet complete and, as a result, the Company's final results upon completion of the closing procedures may vary from the preliminary estimates set forth above. The Company's independent registered public accounting firm, BDO USA, LLP, has not audited, reviewed, compiled or performed any procedures with respect to the preliminary estimated financial information, nor have they expressed any opinion or any other form of assurance on such information or its achievability, and assume no responsibility for, and disclaim any association with, such preliminary estimated financial information. Further, these preliminary estimated results are not a comprehensive statement or estimate of the Company's financial condition or operating results for the fourth quarter ending December 31, 2022. These preliminary estimated results should not be viewed as a substitute for complete quarterly financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") or as a measure of the Company's performance.
