  • Acquired a boutique lifestyle hotel in Nashville in July for $59.0 million
  • Successfully exited the covenant waiver period under corporate credit facilities
  • Maintained a strong balance sheet with approximately $1.1 billion of liquidity, including $511.5 million of unrestricted cash

“Our second quarter results significantly outperformed our expectations, led by the performance of our urban markets, which were the major beneficiary of strengthening business travel and greater citywide attendance, that drove outsized growth during the weekdays, in addition to robust leisure demand. The surge of demand in our urban markets drove our results to sequentially improve each month of the quarter, which continued into July,” commented Leslie D. Hale, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Against this improving backdrop, our strong balance sheet allowed us to execute multiple capital allocation initiatives, including advancing our three 2022 conversions, accretively recycling capital into share repurchases, and acquiring a high-quality boutique lifestyle hotel in downtown Nashville. Our accelerating performance allowed us to exit our covenant waivers, and our confidence in the sustainability of our cash flows enabled us to meaningfully increase our dividend.”

The prefix “pro forma” as defined by the Company, denotes operating results which include results for periods prior to its ownership and excludes sold hotels. Pro forma RevPAR and pro forma Hotel EBITDA Margin are reported on a comparable basis and therefore exclude any hotels sold during the period and non-comparable hotels that were not open for operation or were closed for renovation for comparable periods. Explanations of EBITDA, EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDA, Hotel EBITDA, Hotel EBITDA Margin, FFO, and Adjusted FFO, as well as reconciliations of those measures to net income or loss, if applicable, are included within this release.

Operational Update

Lodging fundamentals continued to accelerate throughout the second quarter, benefiting from summer travel, ramping corporate and group demand, and stronger citywide attendance. These positive trends led to a significant step up in demand within urban markets, which has continued into July. RLJ’s Urban hotel RevPAR achieved the strongest growth during the second quarter, achieving 95% of 2019 levels in June. Improving corporate demand also drove positive momentum in weekday results which strengthened throughout the second quarter. These improving trends led the Company to achieve pro forma RevPAR of $146.05 and pro forma Hotel EBITDA of $118.6 million during the second quarter, which represented approximately 92% and 91% of 2019 levels, respectively, with each achieving new highs since the beginning of the pandemic. This positive momentum from the second quarter has continued into the third quarter.

Acquisition

In July, the Company acquired the fee simple interest in a 124-room boutique lifestyle hotel in Nashville for a purchase price of $59.0 million, or approximately $476,000 per key. The hotel is expected to generate an estimated 8.0% to 8.5% stabilized NOI yield and an accretive stabilized RevPAR nearly double that of the rest of the Company’s portfolio. The Company funded the acquisition with existing cash on its balance sheet.

Dispositions

As previously disclosed, during the second quarter, the Company sold the SpringHill Suites Denver North Westminster for gross proceeds of approximately $14.5 million. Year-to-date the Company has sold two hotel properties for combined sales prices of approximately $49.9 million.

Share Repurchases

During the second quarter, the Company repurchased approximately 4.2 million common shares for $50.0 million, at an average price per share of $11.93. As of August 4, 2022, the Company's share buyback program has $200.0 million of remaining capacity.

Balance Sheet

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had approximately $1.1 billion of total liquidity, comprising of $511.5 million of unrestricted cash and $600.0 million available under its revolving credit facility ("Revolver"), and $2.2 billion of debt outstanding. The Company has no debt maturities until 2023.

The Company has exited both the covenant waiver period and leverage relief period under its credit facilities. The impact of these exits includes the reinstatement of financial covenants, the elimination of the minimum liquidity financial covenant, the elimination of certain spending limitations, and reinstatement of the pre-waiver pricing grids.

Dividends

The Company’s Board of Trustees declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.01 per common share of beneficial interest of the Company in the second quarter. The dividend was paid on July 15, 2022 to shareholders of record as of June 30, 2022. Subsequently, on July 29, 2022 the Company’s Board of Trustees also declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per common share of beneficial interest of the Company for the third quarter. The dividend will be paid on October 17, 2022 to shareholders of record as of September 30, 2022.

The Company's Board of Trustees declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.4875 on the Company’s Series A Preferred Shares in the second quarter.

RLJ Lodging Trust
Non-GAAP and Accounting Commentary

Non-Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“Non-GAAP”) Financial Measures

The Company considers the following non-GAAP financial measures useful to investors as key supplemental measures of its performance: (1) FFO, (2) Adjusted FFO, (3) EBITDA, (4) EBITDAre, (5) Adjusted EBITDA, (6) Hotel EBITDA, and (7) Hotel EBITDA Margin. These Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered along with, but not as alternatives to, net income or loss as a measure of its operating performance. FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA, EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDA, Hotel EBITDA, and Hotel EBITDA Margin as calculated by the Company, may not be comparable to other companies that do not define such terms exactly as the Company.

Funds From Operations (“FFO”)

The Company calculates Funds from Operations (“FFO”) in accordance with standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, which defines FFO as net income or loss (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of real estate, impairment, the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles, plus depreciation and amortization, and adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have instead historically risen or fallen with market conditions, most real estate industry investors consider FFO to be helpful in evaluating a real estate company’s operations. The Company believes that the presentation of FFO provides useful information to investors regarding the Company’s operating performance and can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between real estate investment trusts (“REITs”), even though FFO does not represent an amount that accrues directly to common shareholders.

The Company’s calculation of FFO may not be comparable to measures calculated by other companies who do not use the NAREIT definition of FFO or do not calculate FFO per diluted share in accordance with NAREIT guidance. Additionally, FFO may not be helpful when comparing the Company to non-REITs. The Company presents FFO attributable to common shareholders, which includes unitholders of limited partnership interest (“OP units”) in RLJ Lodging Trust, L.P., the Company’s operating partnership, because the OP units are redeemable for common shares of the Company. The Company believes it is meaningful for the investor to understand FFO attributable to all common shares and OP units.

EBITDA and EBITDAre

Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (“EBITDA”) is defined as net income or loss excluding: (1) interest expense; (2) provision for income taxes, including income taxes applicable to sales of assets; and (3) depreciation and amortization. The Company considers EBITDA useful to an investor in evaluating and facilitating comparisons of its operating performance between periods and between REITs by removing the impact of its capital structure (primarily interest expense) and asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) from its operating results. In addition, EBITDA is used as one measure in determining the value of hotel acquisitions and dispositions.

In addition to EBITDA, the Company presents EBITDAre in accordance with NAREIT guidelines, which defines EBITDAre as net income or loss (calculated in accordance with GAAP) excluding interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense, gains or losses from sales of real estate, impairment, and adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. The Company believes that the presentation of EBITDAre provides useful information to investors regarding the Company's operating performance and can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between REITs.

Adjustments to FFO and EBITDA

The Company adjusts FFO, EBITDA, and EBITDAre for certain items that the Company considers either outside the normal course of operations or extraordinary. The Company believes that Adjusted FFO, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDAre provide useful supplemental information to investors regarding its ongoing operating performance that, when considered with net income or loss, FFO, EBITDA, and EBITDAre, is beneficial to an investor’s understanding of its operating performance. The Company adjusts FFO, EBITDA, and EBITDAre for the following items:

  • Transaction Costs: The Company excludes transaction costs expensed during the period
  • Pre-Opening Costs: The Company excludes certain costs related to pre-opening of hotels
  • Non-Cash Expenses: The Company excludes the effect of certain non-cash items such as the amortization of share-based compensation, non-cash income taxes, and non-cash expense related to discontinued interest rate hedges
  • Other Non-Operational Expenses: The Company excludes the effect of certain non-operational expenses representing income and expenses outside the normal course of operations

Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA Margin

With respect to Consolidated Hotel EBITDA, the Company believes that excluding the effect of corporate-level expenses and certain non-cash items provides a more complete understanding of the operating results over which individual hotels and operators have direct control. The Company believes property-level results provide investors with supplemental information about the ongoing operational performance of the Company’s hotels and the effectiveness of third-party management companies.

Pro forma Consolidated Hotel EBITDA includes prior ownership information provided by the sellers of the hotels for periods prior to our acquisition of the hotels, which has not been audited and excludes results from sold hotels as applicable. Pro forma Hotel EBITDA and pro forma Hotel EBITDA Margin exclude the results of non-comparable hotels that were under renovation or not open for the entirety of the comparable periods. The following is a summary of pro forma hotel adjustments:
