Asset Contribution to GIC Joint Venture Completed

On May 1, 2021, the Company contributed a portfolio of six hotels containing 846 guestrooms into its existing joint venture with an affiliate of GIC, Singapore's sovereign wealth fund, which increased the joint venture's investment to nearly $450 million since formation in 2019.  Total consideration for the portfolio was $172.0 million, or $203,000 per key, and GIC contributed $84.3 million in cash to complete the acquisition of their 49% interest.  Net proceeds from the transaction were used to repay $62.5 million of the Company's senior debt, and $20.9 million was retained in cash that can be used for future investment opportunities increasing our acquisition allotment to $170.9 million.

Six-Hotel Portfolio Contribution Asset Listing:

• 183 guestroom - Courtyard by Marriott Pittsburgh Downtown
• 153 guestroom - Courtyard by Marriott Scottsdale North
• 121 guestroom - SpringHill Suites by Marriott Scottsdale North
• 138 guestroom - Hampton Inn & Suites Tampa/Ybor City/Downtown
• 129 guestroom - Homewood Suites by Hilton Aliso Viejo - Laguna Beach
• 122 guestroom - Homewood Suites by Hilton Tucson/St. Philip's Plaza University

The Company's senior debt repayment included $42.5 million on its term loan maturing in November 2022, resulting in a balance of $84.0 million and the full repayment of the balance on its $400 million revolving line of credit from $20 million to zero, resulting in approximately $440 million of total liquidity for the Company.

Capital Markets & Balance Sheet

On January 12, 2021, the Company closed on a $287.5 million 1.50% Convertible Senior Notes offering due February 2026 with an initial conversion price of $11.99 per share.  Concurrent with the offering, the Company used $21.1 million of the offering proceeds to enter into capped call transactions with various counterparties that effectively increased the conversion price to $15.26 per share, which represents a 75% premium over the last reported sale price of common stock on January 7, 2021.  Net proceeds from the offering were used to repay the Company's then outstanding senior revolving credit facility balance from $160.0 million to zero and the $225 million senior term loan maturing in November 2022 down to $126.5 million.

On February 5, 2021, the Company amended the credit agreements for its $400 million revolving credit facility and three senior term loans totaling approximately $550 million to extend the covenant waiver period, increase liquidity, create investment capacity, and enhance overall flexibility.

On March 31, 2021, inclusive of its pro rata share of the Joint Venture credit facility, the Company had the following:

• Pro rata outstanding debt of $1.1 billion with a weighted average interest rate of 3.33 percent.
• After giving effect to interest rate derivative agreements, $832.4 million, or 77 percent, of our pro rata outstanding debt had fixed interest rates, and $252.3 million, or 23 percent, had variable interest rates.
• Pro rata unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $26.1 million.
• Revolving credit facility availability of $320.0 million, plus an additional $50.0 million available to borrow subject to certain requirements.

On April 29, 2021, the joint venture, in which the Company is a 51 percent owner and general partner, completed an amendment of its existing $200 million credit facility that provides for a temporary waiver of financial covenants through the fourth quarter of 2021, and modifies certain financial covenant measures through the second quarter of 2023.  The amendment provides for additional credit availability for capital expenditures and other general joint venture purposes, permits equity-funded acquisitions up to $150 million, and contains customary restrictions and limitations related to distributions and dispositions.

On May 1, 2021, inclusive of the recent transaction activity and its pro rata share of the Joint Venture credit facility, the Company had the following:

• Pro rata outstanding debt of $1.0 billion with a weighted average interest rate of 3.36 percent.
• After giving effect to interest rate derivative agreements, $816.0 million, or 80 percent, of our pro rata outstanding debt had fixed interest rates, and $206.3 million, or 20 percent, had variable interest rates.
• Pro rata unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $48.0 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We disclose certain "non-GAAP financial measures," which are measures of our historical financial performance. Non-GAAP financial measures are financial measures not prescribed by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). These measures are as follows: (i) Funds From Operations ("FFO") and Adjusted Funds from Operations ("AFFO"), (ii) Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA"), Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization for Real Estate ("EBITDAre"), Adjusted EBITDAre, and hotel EBITDA (as described below). We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our definitions of non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other companies, since not all companies calculate these non-GAAP financial measures in the same manner. Our non-GAAP financial measures should be considered along with, but not as alternatives to, net income (loss) as a measure of our operating performance. Our non-GAAP financial measures may include funds that may not be available for our discretionary use due to functional requirements to conserve funds for capital expenditures, property acquisitions, debt service obligations and other commitments and uncertainties. Although we believe that our non-GAAP financial measures can enhance the understanding of our financial condition and results of operations, these non-GAAP financial measures are not necessarily better indicators of any trend as compared to a comparable measure prescribed by GAAP such as net income (loss).

Funds From Operations ("FFO") and Adjusted FFO ("AFFO")

As defined by Nareit, FFO represents net income or loss (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding preferred dividends, gains (or losses) from sales of real property, impairment losses on real estate assets, items classified by GAAP as extraordinary, the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles, plus depreciation and amortization related to real estate assets, and adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships, and joint ventures. AFFO represents FFO excluding amortization of deferred financing costs, franchise fees, equity-based compensation expense, debt transaction costs, premiums on redemption of preferred shares, losses from net casualties, non-cash lease expense, non-cash interest income and non-cash income tax related adjustments to our deferred tax assets. Unless otherwise indicated, we present FFO and AFFO applicable to our common shares and common units. We present FFO and AFFO because we consider FFO and AFFO an important supplemental measure of our operational performance and believe it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs, many of which present FFO and AFFO when reporting their results. FFO and AFFO are intended to exclude GAAP historical cost depreciation and amortization, which assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes ratably over time. Historically, however, real estate values have risen or fallen with market conditions. Because FFO and AFFO exclude depreciation and amortization related to real estate assets, gains and losses from real property dispositions and impairment losses on real estate assets, FFO and AFFO provide performance measures that, when compared year over year, reflect the effect to operations from trends in occupancy, guestroom rates, operating costs, development activities and interest costs, providing perspective not immediately apparent from net income. Our computation of FFO differs slightly from the computation of Nareit-defined FFO related to the reporting of corporate depreciation and amortization expense. Our computation of FFO may also differ from the methodology for calculating FFO used by other equity REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. FFO and AFFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends or make distributions.  Where indicated in this release, FFO is based on our computation of FFO and not the computation of Nareit-defined FFO unless otherwise noted.

EBITDA, EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDAre, and Hotel EBITDA

EBITDA

EBITDA represents net income or loss, excluding: (i) interest, (ii) income tax expense and (iii) depreciation and amortization. We believe EBITDA is useful to an investor in evaluating our operating performance because it provides investors with an indication of our ability to incur and service debt, to satisfy general operating expenses, to make capital expenditures and to fund other cash needs or reinvest cash into our business. We also believe it helps investors meaningfully evaluate and compare the results of our operations from period to period by removing the effect of our asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) from our operating results. Our management team also uses EBITDA as one measure in determining the value of acquisitions and dispositions.

EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre

EBITDAre is based on EBITDA and is expected to provide additional relevant information about REITs as real estate companies in support of growing interest among generalist investors. EBITDAre is intended to be a supplemental non-GAAP performance measure that is independent of a company's capital structure and will provide a uniform basis to measure the enterprise value of a company compared to other REITs.

EBITDAre, as defined by Nareit, is calculated as EBITDA, excluding: (i) loss and gains on disposition of property and (ii) asset impairments, if any. We believe EBITDAre is useful to an investor in evaluating our operating performance because it provides investors with an indication of our ability to incur and service debt, to satisfy general operating expenses, to make capital expenditures and to fund other cash needs or reinvest cash into our business. We also believe it helps investors meaningfully evaluate and compare the results of our operations from period to period by removing the effect of our asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) from our operating results.

We make additional adjustments to EBITDAre when evaluating our performance because we believe that the exclusion of certain additional non-recurring or certain non-cash items described below provides useful supplemental information to investors regarding our ongoing operating performance. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDAre, when combined with the primary GAAP presentation of net income, is useful to an investor in evaluating our operating performance because it provides investors with an indication of our ability to incur and service debt, to satisfy general operating expenses, to make capital expenditures and to fund other cash needs or reinvest cash into our business. We also believe it helps investors meaningfully evaluate and compare the results of our operations from period to period by removing the effect of our asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) from our operating results.

Hotel EBITDA

With respect to hotel EBITDA, we believe that excluding the effect of corporate-level expenses and non-cash items provides a more complete understanding of the operating results over which individual hotels and operators have direct control.  We believe the property-level results provide investors with supplemental information on the ongoing operational performance of our hotels and effectiveness of the third-party management companies operating our business on a property-level basis.

We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our definitions of EBITDA, EBITDAre, adjusted EBITDAre, and hotel EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other companies, since not all companies calculate these non-GAAP measures in the same manner. EBITDA, EBITDAre, adjusted EBITDAre, and hotel EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative measure of our net income (loss) or operating performance. EBITDA, EBITDAre, adjusted EBITDAre, and hotel EBITDA may include funds that may not be available for our discretionary use due to functional requirements to conserve funds for capital expenditures and property acquisitions and other commitments and uncertainties. Although we believe that EBITDA, EBITDAre, adjusted EBITDAre, and hotel EBITDA can enhance your understanding of our financial condition and results of operations, these non-GAAP financial measures are not necessarily a better indicator of any trend as compared to a comparable GAAP measure such as net income (loss). Above, we include a quantitative reconciliation of EBITDA, EBITDAre, adjusted EBITDAre and hotel EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP financial performance measure, which is net income (loss) and operating income (loss).
