Insights

Q3 2024 results show mixed performance with some concerning trends. Total revenue increased by 3.9% to $40.7 million, but net loss widened significantly to $5.6 million from $3.9 million year-over-year. While Hotel EBITDA improved to $8.1 million, the 791.7% decline in Adjusted FFO to negative $0.3 million is worrying.

The refinancing of Jacksonville Doubletree provides $9.5 million for improvements, but at a floating rate of SOFR plus 3.00%, exposing to interest rate risk. The additional $5.0 million second mortgage on DeSoto at 7.50% fixed rate indicates potential liquidity needs. The downward revision of 2024 guidance, now projecting a net loss versus previous profit forecast, suggests operational challenges ahead.

RevPAR metrics reveal operational inefficiencies. While occupancy increased by 7.8% to 66.3%, ADR declined by 3.4% to $161.37, suggesting potential pricing pressure or market positioning issues. The Hurricane Helene impact on Hotel Alba, though insured, could affect near-term performance.

The balance sheet shows $32.5 million in cash, but $18.5 million is restricted. With $321.3 million in debt at 5.95% average interest rate, the company's financial flexibility appears The revised lower guidance for Hotel EBITDA margin at 25.3% indicates operational efficiency challenges that need addressing.

Dave Folsom, President and Chief Executive Officer of Sotherly Hotels Inc., commented, "In the third quarter, Sotherly’s portfolio continued to experience year-over-year growth in both total revenues and Hotel EBITDA, compared to the same period in 2023. Our refinancing of the mortgage at our Jacksonville Doubletree location was a major milestone and highlight for the Company in the quarter, given the current tough conditions in the mortgage and lending markets for commercial properties. The mortgage provides for nearly $9.5 million in available financing to fund life cycle capital improvements at this property, which will commence in early Q2 of 2025 and conclude at the end of 2026. Also in the quarter, Hurricane Helene impacted Florida. In our portfolio, only the Hotel Alba in Tampa was materially impacted by the storm, which was the most severe hurricane to hit Tampa in 100 years. The storm produced a record surge two feet greater than any previously measured. Our hotel experienced flooding on its ground floor that resulted in a material casualty to interior spaces and systems. The hotel remained open, and remediation and restoration commenced immediately. The hotel is fully insured, has remained open, and the Company expects to recover lost revenues through business interruption insurance. Our staff and partners did a superb job in handling this dangerous casualty."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company considers the non-GAAP financial measures of FFO (including FFO per common share and unit), Adjusted FFO (including Adjusted FFO per common share and unit), EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA to be key supplemental measures of the Company’s performance and could be considered along with, not alternatives to, net income (loss) as a measure of the Company’s performance. These measures do not represent cash generated from operating activities determined by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) or amounts available for the Company’s discretionary use and should not be considered alternative measures of net income, cash flows from operations or any other operating performance measure prescribed by GAAP. 

FFO

Industry analysts and investors use FFO as a supplemental operating performance measure of an equity REIT. FFO is calculated in accordance with the definition adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). FFO, as defined by NAREIT, represents net income or loss determined in accordance with GAAP, excluding extraordinary items as defined under GAAP, gains or losses from sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets, gains or losses from involuntary conversions of assets, plus certain non-cash items such as real estate asset depreciation and amortization or impairment, and adjustment for any noncontrolling interest from unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP 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, many investors and analysts have considered the presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by itself.

The Company considers FFO to be a useful measure of adjusted net income (loss) for reviewing comparative operating and financial performance because we believe FFO is most directly comparable to net income (loss), which remains the primary measure of performance, because by excluding gains or losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets and excluding real estate asset depreciation and amortization, FFO assists in comparing the operating performance of a company’s real estate between periods or as compared to different companies. Although FFO is intended to be a REIT industry standard, other companies may not calculate FFO in the same manner as we do, and investors should not assume that FFO as reported by us is comparable to FFO as reported by other REITs.

Adjusted FFO

The Company presents Adjusted FFO, including Adjusted FFO per share and unit, which adjusts for certain additional items that are not in NAREIT’s definition of FFO including changes in deferred income taxes, any unrealized gain (loss) on hedging instruments, losses on early extinguishment of debt, gains on extinguishment of preferred stock, aborted offering costs, loan modification fees, franchise termination costs, costs associated with the departure of executive officers, litigation settlement, management contract termination costs, operating asset depreciation and amortization, gain or loss on a change in control, ESOP and stock compensation expenses and negative lease amortization on our finance ground lease obligation. We exclude these items as we believe it allows for meaningful comparisons between periods and among other REITs and is more indicative than FFO of the on-going performance of our business and assets. Our calculation of Adjusted FFO may be different from similar measures calculated by other REITs.

EBITDA

The Company believes that excluding the effect of non-operating expenses and non-cash charges, and the portion of those items related to unconsolidated entities, all of which are also based on historical cost accounting and may be of limited significance in evaluating current performance, can help eliminate the accounting effects of depreciation and financing decisions and facilitate comparisons of core operating profitability between periods and between REITs, even though EBITDA also does not represent an amount that accrues directly to shareholders.

Hotel EBITDA

The Company defines Hotel EBITDA as net income or loss excluding: (1) interest expense, (2) interest income, (3) income tax provision or benefit, (4) depreciation and amortization, (5) impairment of long-lived assets or investments, (6) gains and losses on disposal and/or sale of assets, (7) gains and losses on involuntary conversions of assets, (8) realized or unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments not included in other comprehensive income, (9) other income at the properties, (10) loss on early debt extinguishment, (11) Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) debt forgiveness, (12) gain on exercise of development right, (13) corporate general and administrative expense, and (14) other income not related to our wholly-owned portfolio. We believe this provides a more complete understanding of the operating results over which our wholly-owned hotels and its operators have direct control. We believe Hotel EBITDA provides investors with supplemental information on the on-going operational performance of our hotels and the effectiveness of third-party management companies operating our business on a property-level basis. The Company’s calculation of Hotel EBITDA may be different from similar measures calculated by other REITs.
