Our mortgage debt agreements contain “cash trap” provisions that are triggered when the hotel’s operating results fall below a certain debt service coverage ratio.

We expect to meet our long-term liquidity requirements through various sources of capital, including cash provided by operations, borrowings, issuances of additional equity, including common OP units, and/or debt securities and proceeds from property dispositions. Our ability to incur additional debt is dependent upon a number of factors, including the state of the credit markets, our degree of leverage, the value of our unencumbered assets and borrowing restrictions imposed by existing lenders. Our ability to raise capital through the issuance of additional equity and/or debt securities is also dependent on a number of factors including the current state of the capital markets, investor sentiment and our intended use of proceeds. We may need to raise additional capital if we identify acquisition opportunities that meet our investment objectives and require liquidity in excess of existing cash balances. Our ability to raise funds through the issuance of equity securities depends on, among other things, general market conditions for hotel companies and REITs and market perceptions about us.

We believe that we maintain a reasonable amount of debt. As of September 30, 2024, we had $1.1 billion of debt outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of 5.60% and a weighted average maturity date of approximately 1.9 years. We have two mortgage loans that mature in the next 12 months. We intend to refinance the other mortgage loans that mature in 2025 as they approach their respective maturity dates. In the case that refinancing options are not attractive, we may repay such mortgage loans using our senior unsecured revolving credit facility. As of September 30, 2024, 33 of our 36 hotels are unencumbered by mortgage debt. We remain committed to our core strategy of prudent leverage.

We maintain an “at-the-market” equity offering program (the “ATM Program”), pursuant to which we may issue and sell shares of our common stock from time to time, having an aggregate offering price of up to $200.0 million. We have not sold any shares under the ATM Program, which is scheduled to expire pursuant to its terms on August 6, 2024. We expect to replace the ATM Program prior to its expiration.

Prior to the implementation of the Current ATM Program, we had a $200.0 million ATM program (the “Prior ATM Program”), which is no longer active. No shares were sold under either the Prior ATM Program or the Current ATM Program during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Previous wording
In May 2024, our board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to $200.0 million of our common stock under a new share repurchase program, which replaced our prior share repurchase program that was authorized in September 2022. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including price and general business and market conditions. The new share repurchase program does not obligate us to acquire any particular amount of shares, and may be suspended or discontinued at any time at our discretion. The new share repurchase program will expire on May 1, 2026. As of June 30, 2024, we repurchased 2,454,307 shares of common stock at an average price of $8.39 per share for a total purchase price of $20.6 million under this program. Subsequent to June 30, 2024, we repurchased 660,569 shares at an average price of $8.14 per share for a total purchase price of $5.4 million. As of August 2, 2024, we have $174.0 million of authorized capacity remaining under the new share repurchase program. All share repurchases during the year were made under the new share repurchase program.
