BETHESDA, Md--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Pebblebrook Hotel Trust (NYSE: PEB):

Q1 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS	Net loss: ($22.0) million Same-Property Total RevPAR(1) increased 23.8% vs. 2022 Same-Property EBITDA(1) $59.3 million, 25.4% above 2022 Adjusted EBITDAre(1) $60.8 million, increased 30.8% vs. 2022 Adjusted FFO(1) per diluted share $0.18 vs. $0.11 in 2022
HOTEL OPERATING TRENDS	Business demand, both group and transient, continues to recover, benefiting our urban markets as well as our resorts; group revenue pace for Q2-Q4 2023 is up 20% over the prior year, with ADR ahead by 8.7% Leisure demand remains healthy. As expected, Resort ADR premiums remain far above 2019, but less than last year, as occupancies recover. Compared with the prior year, Urban ADR premiums continue to grow, offsetting resort declines. Same-Property ADR declined by 0.8% as Same-Property Occupancy climbed 19.4% Have not yet seen any slowdown in business or leisure demand due to macro-economic concerns
PORTFOLIO UPDATES & REPOSITIONINGS	During the quarter, completed $135.3 million of property sales, including The Heathman Hotel in Portland, Oregon for $45 million, the retail parcel at 909 North Michigan Avenue in Chicago for $27.3 million, and Hotel Colonnade in Coral Gables, Florida for $63 million Executed contracts to sell Monaco Seattle for $63.3 million and Vintage Seattle for $33.7 million. Both individual sales are targeted to close later in Q2 2023 Made $26.2 million of capital investments during the quarter, including the ongoing major renovations of Hilton San Diego Gaslamp Quarter, Newport Harbor Island Resort, Viceroy Santa Monica, and Jekyll Island Club Resort and the redevelopment of Hotel Solamar into Margaritaville Hotel San Diego Gaslamp Quarter

"First-quarter operating results exceeded our outlook due to improving demand in a number of urban markets, including San Francisco, Portland, Chicago, and Washington, DC. This generated substantial gains in room and non-room revenue with improved profits across our properties in these markets. Our resorts benefited from improving occupancies from recovering group demand with ADR premiums continuing to be far above 2019. Performance at our West Coast resorts would have been better but for the endless rains and cold weather on the West Coast throughout the quarter that negatively affected leisure demand. We completed three property sales during the quarter in an increasingly challenging market, and we executed contracts to sell two additional hotels, both in Seattle, and we expect these sales will close later in the second quarter. We continue to utilize proceeds from property sales to reduce our net debt and repurchase our shares at a significant discount to the underlying saleable private market value of our portfolio.”

-Jon E. Bortz, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Pebblebrook Hotel Trust

⁽¹⁾ See tables later in this press release for a description of Same-Property information and reconciliations from net income (loss) to non-GAAP financial measures, including Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA"), EBITDA for Real Estate ("EBITDAre"), Adjusted EBITDAre, Funds from Operations ("FFO"), FFO per share, Adjusted FFO and Adjusted FFO per share.

Adjusted EBITDAre, Adjusted FFO and Adjusted FFO per share exclude the amortization of share-based compensation expense. Historical and comparable period results of such non-GAAP financial measures have been adjusted to reflect the exclusion.

⁽²⁾ Includes information for all the hotels the Company owned as of March 31, 2023, except for the following:

• 1 Hotel San Francisco
• LaPlaya Beach Resort & Club

“Our urban hotels led the portfolio growth this quarter, with occupancy up 22.1 percent and ADR rising by 8.7 percent. Total RevPAR at our urban hotels increased 38.4 percent, and their EBITDA more than doubled over the prior-year period,” noted Mr. Bortz. “San Francisco and Washington, DC were our most improved urban markets during the quarter. San Francisco benefited from healthy citywide and corporate group demand as well as improved business transient demand. Our hotels in Washington, DC saw significantly improved business transient, group, and convention demand, as occupancy levels doubled versus the prior year period.”

In addition to several winter storms during Q1, the Company’s hotel operating results were also negatively impacted by the disruption from several ongoing redevelopment projects. These renovations displaced approximately 275 basis points of Same-Property RevPAR growth, approximately $6.8 million of hotel revenues, and approximately $5.0 million of Same-Property EBITDA.

Update on Impact from Hurricane Ian

The Company continues to complete significant repairs and rebuilding at the 189-room LaPlaya Beach Resort & Club. The resort’s Bay Tower (40 rooms) reopened during the first quarter. The Gulf Tower (70 rooms) partially reopened in April. The property’s Beach House (79 rooms) remains closed but is on track to be fully remediated, restored and reopened by the end of this year. The resort is currently operating with limited resort services and amenities, but we expect these to be restored over the next three months as rebuilding these facilities is completed.

The Company anticipates all operational disruption will be covered under the Company’s business interruption and property insurance programs, net of deductibles. A preliminary business interruption settlement of $8.1 million was recorded in Q1 related to lost income from Q4 2022. The Company anticipates an additional preliminary business interruption settlement of approximately $10.0 million to be approved in Q2 2023 relating to lost business from Q1 2023. Pebblebrook expects to record additional business interruption settlements in 2023 as these are determined and finalized with its insurance providers.

Update on Strategic Dispositions

The Company completed three property dispositions during the quarter, generating $135.3 million of sales proceeds. This included The Heathman Hotel (151 rooms) in Portland, Oregon, for $45.0 million, Hotel Colonnade (157 rooms) in Coral Gables, Florida, for $63.0 million, and the retail parcel located at 909 North Michigan Avenue in Chicago, Illinois, adjacent to the Company’s Westin Michigan Avenue for $27.3 million.

The Company has executed individual contracts to sell Monaco Seattle (189 rooms) for $63.3 million and Vintage Seattle (125 rooms) for $33.7 million to separate non-affiliated third parties. Each property sale is subject to normal closing conditions. The Company offers no assurances that these sales will be completed on these terms or at all. The property sales are targeted to be completed later in the second quarter of 2023.

Net proceeds from the Company’s dispositions will be used for general corporate purposes, including reducing the Company’s outstanding debt and repurchasing common and preferred shares.

Common Share Repurchases

Since our last Earnings Release in late February 2023, the Company has repurchased 3.0 million common shares at an average price of $13.85 per share. On a cumulative basis since October 2022, the Company has repurchased 8.5 million common shares, or approximately 6.4 percent of the Company’s previous outstanding share count, at an average price of $14.66 per share, representing an approximate 48% discount to the midpoint of the Company's most recently published estimated Net Asset Value (“NAV”).

Capital Investments and Strategic Property Redevelopments

During the first quarter, the Company completed $26.2 million of capital investments throughout its portfolio. The Company expects to invest a total of $145.0 to $155.0 million in capital improvements in 2023, which includes completing the redevelopment and repositioning projects at Hotel Solamar (to be converted to Margaritaville Hotel San Diego Gaslamp Quarter), Hilton San Diego Gaslamp Quarter, Jekyll Island Club Resort, Viceroy Santa Monica Hotel, Estancia La Jolla Hotel & Spa, the four guesthouses at Southernmost Beach Resort, as well as the development of a new outdoor venue and 11 additional alternative lodging units at Skamania Lodge. We also expect to commence the comprehensive redevelopment and repositioning of Newport Harbor Island Resort in the fourth quarter.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

As of March 31, 2023, the Company had $146.5 million of consolidated cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, in addition to $636.9 million of undrawn availability on its senior unsecured revolving credit facility, for total liquidity of $783.4 million. The Company had $2.4 billion in consolidated debt and convertible notes at an effective weighted-average interest rate of 4.1 percent. $1.7 billion, or 71% of the Company’s total outstanding debt and convertible notes, was at an effective weighted-average fixed interest rate of 3.0 percent, and $0.7 billion, or 29% percent, was at a weighted-average floating interest rate of 6.9 percent.

Common and Preferred Dividends

On March 15, 2023, the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.01 per share on its common shares and a regular quarterly cash dividend for the following preferred shares of beneficial interest.

• $0.39844 per 6.375% Series E Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share;
• $0.39375 per 6.3% Series F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share;
• $0.39844 per 6.375% Series G Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share; and
• $0.35625 per 5.7% Series H Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share.

Update on Curator Hotel & Resort Collection

Curator Hotel & Resort Collection (“Curator”) is a distinct collection of experientially focused small brands and independent lifestyle hotels and resorts worldwide founded by Pebblebrook and several industry-leading independent lifestyle hotel operators. As of March 31, 2023, Curator had 97 member hotels and 102 master service agreements with preferred vendor partners, providing Curator member hotels with preferred pricing, enhanced operating terms, and early access to curated new technologies.

Q2 2023 Outlook

Based on current trends and assuming no material disruptions to travel caused by pandemics or worsening macro-economic conditions, the Company’s outlook for Q2 2023 is as follows:

	Q2 2023 Outlook
	Low	High
($ and shares/units in millions, except per share and RevPAR data)
Net income	$34.0	$38.9
Adjusted EBITDAre	$107.5	$113.0
Adjusted FFO	$65.0	$70.5
Adjusted FFO per diluted share	$0.52	$0.57

This Q2 2023 Outlook is based, in part, on the following estimates and assumptions:
Same-Property RevPAR	$227.6	$234.4
Same-Property RevPAR variance vs. 2022	1.0%	4.0%
Same-Property EBITDA	$108.0	$113.0
Same-Property EBITDA variance vs. 2022	(15.4%)	(11.5%)

The Company’s Same-Property RevPAR and Same-Property EBITDA assumptions exclude properties expected to be sold in Q2 2023.

The Company’s outlook incorporates the estimated negative impact of displaced revenues and EBITDA associated with the ongoing redevelopments and transformations of Solamar Hotel (conversion to Margaritaville Hotel San Diego Gaslamp Quarter), Hilton San Diego Gaslamp Quarter, Estancia La Jolla Hotel & Spa, Viceroy Santa Monica, Jekyll Island Club Resort, and a small renovation project at The Nines Portland. Same-Property RevPAR growth is expected to be negatively impacted by these major transformation projects in the second quarter by approximately 150 basis points, and Same-Property EBITDA is expected to be reduced by approximately $5.5 million.

The second quarter outlook also incorporates an estimated $10.0 million for an additional preliminary business interruption settlement at LaPlaya relating to lost income from the first quarter of 2023. This amount affects the Company’s Adjusted EBITDAre, Adjusted FFO, and net income.

Considerations Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the Company’s results of operations determined in accordance with GAAP.

Funds from Operations (“FFO”) - FFO represents net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of properties, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships. The Company considers FFO a useful measure of performance for an equity REIT because it facilitates an understanding of the Company's operating performance without giving effect to real estate depreciation and amortization, which assume that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, the Company believes that FFO provides a meaningful indication of its performance. The Company also considers FFO an appropriate performance measure given its wide use by investors and analysts. The Company computes FFO in accordance with standards established by the Board of Governors of Nareit in its March 1995 White Paper (as amended in November 1999 and April 2002), which may differ from the methodology for calculating FFO utilized by other equity REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to that of other REITs. Further, FFO does not represent amounts available for management’s discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments and uncertainties, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund the Company’s cash needs, including its ability to make distributions. The Company presents FFO per diluted share calculations that are based on the outstanding dilutive common shares plus the outstanding Operating Partnership units for the periods presented.

Earnings before Interest, Taxes, and Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA") - The Company believes that EBITDA provides investors a useful financial measure to evaluate its operating performance, excluding the impact of our capital structure (primarily interest expense) and our asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization).

Earnings before Interest, Taxes, and Depreciation and Amortization for Real Estate ("EBITDAre") - The Company believes that EBITDAre provides investors a useful financial measure to evaluate its operating performance, and the Company presents EBITDAre in accordance with Nareit guidelines, as defined in its September 2017 white paper "Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization for Real Estate." EBITDAre adjusts EBITDA for the following items, which may occur in any period, and refers to these measures as Adjusted EBITDAre: (1) gains or losses on the disposition of depreciated property, including gains or losses on change of control; (2) impairment write-downs of depreciated property and of investments in unconsolidated affiliates caused by a decrease in value of depreciated property in the affiliate; and (3) adjustments to reflect the entity's share of EBITDAre of unconsolidated affiliates.

The Company also evaluates its performance by reviewing Adjusted FFO and Adjusted EBITDAre because it believes that adjusting FFO to exclude certain recurring and non-recurring items described below provides useful supplemental information regarding the Company's ongoing operating performance and that the presentation of Adjusted FFO and Adjusted EBITDAre, when combined with the primary GAAP presentation of net income (loss), more completely describes the Company's operating performance. The Company adjusts FFO available to common share and unit holders for the following items, which may occur in any period, and refers to this measure as Adjusted FFO and Adjusted EBITDAre:

- Transaction costs: The Company excludes transaction costs expensed during the period because it believes that including these costs in FFO does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company and its hotels.

- Non-cash ground rent: The Company excludes the non-cash ground rent expense, which is primarily made up of the straight-line rent impact from a ground lease.

- Management/franchise contract transition costs: The Company excludes one-time management and/or franchise contract transition costs expensed during the period because it believes that including these costs in FFO and Adjusted EBITDAre does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company and its hotels.

- Interest expense adjustment for acquired liabilities: The Company excludes interest expense adjustment for acquired liabilities assumed in connection with acquisitions, because it believes that including these non-cash adjustments in FFO and Adjusted EBITDAre does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company.

- Finance lease adjustment: The Company excludes the effect of non-cash interest expense from finance leases because it believes that including these non-cash adjustments in FFO and Adjusted EBITDAre does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company.

- Non-cash amortization of acquired intangibles: The Company excludes the non-cash amortization of acquired intangibles, which includes but is not limited to the amortization of favorable and unfavorable leases or management agreements and above/below market real estate tax reduction agreements because it believes that including these non-cash adjustments in FFO and Adjusted EBITDAre does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company.

- Non-cash interest expense, one-time operation suspension expenses, early extinguishment of debt, amortization of share-based compensation expense, issuance costs of redeemed preferred shares, and hurricane-related repairs costs: The Company excludes these items because the Company believes that including these adjustments in FFO does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company and its hotels.

- One-time operation suspension expenses, amortization of share-based compensation expense, and hurricane-related costs: The Company excludes these items because it believes that including these costs in EBITDAre does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company and its hotels.

The Company presents weighted-average number of basic and fully diluted common shares and units by excluding the dilutive effect of shares issuable upon conversion of convertible debt.

The Company’s presentation of FFO and Adjusted EBITDAre as adjusted by the Company, should not be considered as an alternative to net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of the Company’s financial performance or to cash flow from operating activities (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of its liquidity. The Company’s presentation of EBITDAre, and as adjusted by the Company, should not be considered as an alternative to net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of the Company’s financial performance or to cash flow from operating activities (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of its liquidity.
