Previous report
During the year ended December 31, 2023, we experienced a continued recovery from the Pandemic driven increasingly by strong group travel and improvements in business transient demand, in addition to continued strength in leisure travel. From an industry perspective, the year ended December 31, 2023 represented a new high in lodging demand, further evidence that businesses and individual consumers alike are increasingly traveling. Strong room night demand coupled with minimal forecasted growth in supply over the next several years positions the industry for continued growth. Based on the trends noted above, we expect positive comparable hotel RevPAR growth for our portfolio for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Previous report

Previous report
Changes from the year ended December 31, 2023 compared with the year ended December 31, 2022 were due to the following:
Previous report
•Room Expenses. The increase in room expenses for both our total and the same-store portfolio is highly correlated to the increase in room revenues driven by increasing occupancy across our portfolio. Additional factors contributing to higher room expenses include higher wage rates, training, and contract labor needed to meet room demand. We also incurred additional operating expenses during the year ended December 31, 2023 as a result of the acquisition of the Canopy upon completion of the second closing of the NCI Transaction at the end of March 2022, and the addition of the 2023 Acquired Properties and 2022 Acquired Properties to our portfolio. These operating expense increases were partially offset by the disposition of properties during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.
Previous report
•Food and Beverage Revenues and Expenses. Total portfolio and same-store food and beverage revenues increased during the year ended December 31, 2023 as a result of an expanded food and beverage offering and an increase in occupancy across our portfolio during the period. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we were still providing a limited food and beverage offering due to the effects of the Omicron variant of the COVID-19 virus. Additionally, we acquired the AC/Element Hotel in June 2022, which resulted in additional food and beverage revenues and related expenses during the year ended December 31, 2023.
Previous report
The increases in food and beverage expenses were generally consistent with the increases in food and beverage revenues as we have been able to increase food and beverage prices commensurate with the inflationary and other increases in food and beverage costs.
Previous report
•Other Hotel Operating Revenues and Expenses. The increase in other lodging property operating revenues for the total portfolio and same-store resulted from miscellaneous revenues, such as cancellation fees and marketplace purchases, related to increased occupancy, an increase in parking and resort fees, and ancillary revenues driven by increased group demand. The increase in other lodging property operating expenses was attributable to increased marketing costs, labor costs, credit card commissions and other expenses resulting primarily from increased occupancy as compared with the same period of the prior year.
Previous report
Changes from the year ended December 31, 2023 compared with the year ended December 31, 2022 were due to the following:
Previous report
•Management Fees. The increase in Management fees during the current period is primarily due to an increase in revenues for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared with the same period of the prior year and the addition of the 2023 Acquired Properties and 2022 Acquired Properties to our portfolio, partially offset by the disposition of properties during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 and a re-negotiation of property management agreements with two of our property managers that resulted in reduced property management fees.
Previous report
•Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization remained consistent between the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, which is the net result of additional depreciation expense related to the acquisition of the Canopy Hotel in March 2022 and the addition of the 2023 Acquired Properties and 2022 Acquired Properties to our portfolio offset by a reduction in depreciation related to the disposition of the properties during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the reclassification of six hotel properties to Assets Held for Sale on December 31, 2022, which suspended depreciation expense from January 2023 to May 2023.
Previous report
•Corporate General and Administrative. The increase in Corporate general and administrative expenses is primarily due to an increase in compensation expenses related to higher corporate headcount during the year ended December 31, 2023 to support our investment strategies and initiatives and an increase in professional fees for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared with the year ended December 31, 2022.
Previous report
•Transaction Costs. Transactions costs for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 relate to certain one-time costs and other expenses incurred in pursuit of potential lodging property acquisitions that ultimately were not consummated. Transaction costs will vary from year to year based on the level of acquisition activities that we undertake and the outcomes of such activities. Transaction costs were negligible for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Previous report
•Loss (Gain) on Disposal of Assets. The loss on disposal of assets, net for the year ended December 31, 2023 relates to the write-off of the remaining undepreciated book values of disposed assets as a result of renovation activities. The gain on disposal of assets, net for the year ended December 31, 2022 is due to the sale of the Hilton Garden Inn San Francisco Airport North in San Francisco, CA in May 2022 for a gross selling price of $75.0 million.
Previous report
•Interest Expense. Interest expense increased during the year ended December 31, 2023 due to higher base rates on our floating rate debt that is not hedged in comparison with the year ended December 31, 2022, and the additional debt related to the Brickell Transaction which closed in June 2022.
Previous report
•Other Income, net. The decrease in Other income, net for the year ended December 31, 2023 is due primarily to reduced debt transaction costs incurred during the year ended December 31, 2023 offset by a reduction in net tenant income.
Previous report
•Income Tax Expense. We recorded a $2.8 million income tax expense during the year ended December 31, 2023, a decrease of $0.8 million from the $3.6 million income tax expense recorded during the year ended December 31, 2022. Our income tax expense relates to federal and state income taxes on the earnings of our TRS Lessees. The decrease in income tax expense relates to a decrease in the taxable income of our TRS Lessees.

•Net cash used in investing activities. The decrease in cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2023 was primarily due to the net effect of property acquisitions and dispositions and capital expenditures related to lodging property renovations during each period. We closed the NCI Transaction in the first quarter of 2022 and the sale of the Hilton Garden Inn San Francisco Airport North in May 2022. Cash used in investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2023 primarily related to renovation capital during the period, the funding of the Onera Mezzanine Loan (see"Part II - Item 8. - Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 3 - Investments in Lodging Property, net"), and the acquisitions during the year ended December 31, 2023 of the Residence Inn by Marriott in Scottsdale, AZ and the Nordic Lodge in Steamboat, CO, partially offset by the sale of a portfolio of four lodging properties in May 2023 and the sale of Hyatt Place in Baltimore (Owings Mills), MD in December 2023.

Previous wording
Room-night demand in the U.S. lodging industry is generally correlated to certain macroeconomic trends. Key drivers of lodging demand, and therefore hotel revenues, include changes in GDP, corporate profits, capital investments, and employment. From a cost perspective, elevated inflation has been pervasive since 2022, increasing the cost of salaries, wages, supplies, material, freight, insurance and energy. Higher costs from broad inflationary pressures have been partially offset by lodging price increases. While growth rates have decelerated, inflation is still increasing faster than historical norms, which may continue in 2024.
Current wording
Room-night demand in the U.S. lodging industry is generally correlated to certain macroeconomic trends. Key drivers of demand, and therefore lodging revenues, include changes in gross domestic product, corporate profits, capital investments, and employment. From a cost perspective, elevated inflation increased the cost of salaries, wages, supplies, material, freight, insurance and energy in recent years. A portion of these costs were partially offset by lodging price increases. While certain costs remain above historical levels, expense growth has moderated to a pace consistent with historical long-term inflation rates.

•Revenues and RevPAR. The increase in total revenues and RevPAR for our total portfolio for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared with the year ended December 31, 2022 was due to improving corporate and group demand and continued strength in leisure travel. We generated additional revenues during the year ended December 31, 2023 as a result of the acquisition of the Canopy New Orleans hotel in the second closing of the NCI Transaction at the end of March 2022 and the addition of the 2023 Acquired Properties and 2022 Acquired Properties to our portfolio. These revenue increases were partially offset by the disposition of properties during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. Additionally, revenues for the year ended December 31, 2022 were negatively affected by the effect of the Omicron variant of COVID-19 in the first quarter of 2022. On a same store basis, the improvements in our business resulted in an increase of approximately 3.3% in occupancy and a 3.2% in ADR during the year ended December 31, 2023, which resulted in an 6.6% increase in same-store RevPAR. For the total portfolio, we experienced an increase of approximately 3.3% in occupancy and an increase of 4.1% in ADR during the year ended December 31, 2023. This resulted in an increase in RevPAR of 7.6% over the same period in the prior year.
Current wording
On a same store basis, the improvements in our business resulted in an increase of approximately 1.2% in occupancy and a 0.4% in ADR during the year ended December 31, 2024, which resulted in an 1.7% increase in same-store RevPAR. For the total portfolio, we experienced an increase of approximately 2.2% in occupancy and an increase of 1.5% in ADR during the year ended December 31, 2024. This resulted in an increase in RevPAR of 3.7% for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared with the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase in RevPAR was primarily due to net effect of the sales of lodging properties during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 with lower nominal RevPAR and the acquisition of lodging properties over the same period with higher nominal RevPAR.
Previous wording
•Property Taxes, Insurance and Other. The increase in Property taxes, insurance and other is primarily due to an increase in franchise taxes and property and casualty insurance and the addition of the 2023 Acquired Properties and 2022 Acquired Properties to our portfolio, partially offset by a reduction in property tax expense due to the disposition of properties during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, and successful appeal efforts to reduce property tax assessments.
Current wording
•Property Taxes, Insurance and Other. The $1.1 million decrease in Property taxes, insurance and other during the year ended December 31, 2024 is primarily the result of greater reductions in property tax expenses during the year ended December 31, 2024 compared with the prior year due to successful appeal efforts, coupled with a reduction of state franchise taxes and other tax accruals during the period, partially offset by an increase in insurance costs.
Previous wording
•Loss on Write-down of Assets.

Previous wording
Our acquisitions generally consist of land, land improvements, buildings, building improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment, inventory, and assumed debt. We allocate the purchase price among the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values at the date of acquisition. We estimate the fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed by using a combination of the market, cost and income approaches. We determine the fair value by using market data and independent appraisals available to us and by making numerous estimates and assumptions, such as estimates of future income growth, replacement cost per unit, value per acre or buildable square foot, capitalization rates, discount rates, borrowing rates, market rental rates, capital expenditures and cash flow projections at the respective hotel properties. The determination of fair value is subjective and is based in part on assumptions and estimates that could differ materially from actual results in future periods.
Current wording
When we acquire a lodging property, we estimate the fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed using all available information to make these fair value determinations, including discounted cash flow analyses and market comparable data. In addition, we make significant estimates regarding replacement costs for the buildings and furniture, fixtures and equipment, including estimated useful lives and judgements related to certain market assumptions. We also may engage independent valuation specialists to assist in the fair value determinations of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. Fair value determinations required numerous estimates and assumptions, such as estimates of future income growth, replacement cost per unit, value per acre or buildable square foot, capitalization rates, discount rates, borrowing rates, market rental rates, capital expenditures and cash flow projections at the respective lodging properties. The determination of fair value is subjective and is based on assumptions and estimates that could differ materially from actual results in future periods.
