Bethesda, MD, November 6, 2018 – RLJ Lodging Trust (the “Company”) (NYSE: RLJ) today reported results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Sold Vinoy Renaissance for total consideration of $188.5 million, representing 19.6x TTM EBITDA
Sold Embassy Suites Napa Valley for $102.0 million, equating to 14.6x TTM EBITDA
Sold DoubleTree Burlington Vermont for $35.0 million, representing 17.3x TTM EBITDA inclusive of required capital expenditures

“We are proud of our team's accomplishments over the last twelve months, as we have continued to execute incredibly well on our strategic initiatives, and are tracking ahead of our expectations for each of our objectives,” commented Leslie D. Hale, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We have sold non-core assets for over $700 million at a combined trailing EBITDA multiple of 16.5x and exceeded our leverage targets. Through these dispositions and subsequent debt reduction, RLJ is well positioned to deliver shareholder value in 2019 and beyond. Furthermore, we were very pleased with cost control initiatives during the third quarter that led us to exceed our revised guidance range despite transitory headwinds.”
Financial and Operating Results
Performance metrics such as Occupancy, Average Daily Rate (“ADR”), Revenue Per Available Room (“RevPAR”), Hotel EBITDA, and Hotel EBITDA Margin are Pro forma. 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. Trailing twelve months (“TTM”) represents the twelve months of results prior to the disposition date.

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2018, increased $70.5 million to $74.7 million over the comparable period in 2017. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, net income increased $94.6 million to $162.9 million over the comparable period in 2017. For the three months and nine months

Pro forma RevPAR for the three months ended September 30, 2018, decreased 0.8% over the comparable period in 2017, driven by a Pro forma ADR increase of 0.9%, and by a Pro forma Occupancy decrease of 1.6%. Hurricane Florence, which directly affected the Company's Myrtle Beach and Charleston markets that account for 5% of the Company's EBITDA, impacted Pro forma RevPAR by 40 basis points. The Company also experienced incremental softness in Louisville, Austin, and Denver. Excluding these three markets and the impact from Hurricane Florence, Pro forma RevPAR would have increased 0.8%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, Pro forma RevPAR decreased 0.1% over the comparable period in 2017, driven by a Pro forma ADR increase of 0.3%, and by a Pro forma Occupancy decrease of 0.3%.

Pro forma Hotel EBITDA Margin for the three months ended September 30, 2018, was 32.3%, a decrease of 183 basis points over the comparable period in 2017. The impact of Proposition 13 on our acquired California hotels decreased margins by 36 basis points. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, Pro forma Hotel EBITDA Margin decreased 132 basis points over the comparable period in 2017 to 32.7%.

Pro forma Hotel EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2018, decreased $8.9 million to $140.0 million, representing a 6.0% decrease over the comparable period in 2017. For the three months ended September 30, 2017, Pro forma Hotel EBITDA includes results from prior ownership of $37.6 million from the hotel properties acquired pursuant to the FelCor merger.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, Pro forma Hotel EBITDA decreased $17.2 million to $422.0 million, representing a 3.9% decrease over the comparable period in 2017. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, Pro forma Hotel EBITDA includes results from prior ownership of $132.9 million from the hotel properties acquired pursuant to the FelCor merger.

Adjusted FFO for the three months ended September 30, 2018, increased $14.9 million to $101.4 million, representing a 17.2% increase over the comparable period in 2017. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, Adjusted FFO increased $71.1 million to $310.8 million, representing a 29.7% increase over the comparable period in 2017.

Adjusted FFO per diluted common share and unit for the three months ended September 30, 2018, decreased $0.03 to $0.58, representing a 4.9% decrease over the comparable period in 2017. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, Adjusted FFO per diluted common share and unit decreased $0.07 to $1.77, representing a 3.8% decrease over the comparable period in 2017.

Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2018, increased $24.3 million to $132.7 million, representing a 22.4% increase over the comparable period in 2017. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, Adjusted EBITDA increased $117.2 million to $408.3 million, representing a 40.3% increase over the comparable period in 2017.

Non-recurring items and other adjustments which were noteworthy for the three months ended September 30, 2018, include a $1.7 million loss on extinguishment of indebtedness. For the nine months

ended September 30, 2018, non-recurring items and other adjustments which were noteworthy include a gain on extinguishment of indebtedness of $6.0 million.
 
Non-recurring items are included in net income but are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted FFO, as applicable. A complete listing of non-recurring items is provided in the Non-GAAP reconciliation tables located in this press release.

Net cash flow from operating activities totaled $313.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, representing a 51.2% increase over the comparable period in 2017.

During the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company sold the 205-room Embassy Suites Napa Valley for $102.0 million in July 2018, the 152-room DoubleTree Hotel Columbia in August 2018 for $12.9 million, the 362-room Vinoy Renaissance St. Petersburg Resort & Golf Club for total consideration of $188.5 million in August 2018, and the 309-room DoubleTree by Hilton Burlington Vermont for $35.0 million in September 2018.

uncertainty, increased direct competition, changes in government regulations or accounting rules, changes in local, national, and global real estate conditions, declines in the lodging industry, seasonality of the lodging industry, risks related to natural disasters, such as earthquakes and hurricanes, hostilities, including future terrorist attacks or fear of hostilities that affect travel, the Company’s ability to obtain lines of credit or permanent financing on satisfactory terms, changes in interest rates, access to capital through offerings of the Company’s common and preferred shares of beneficial interest, or debt, the Company’s ability to identify suitable acquisitions, the Company’s ability to close on identified acquisitions and integrate those businesses, and inaccuracies of the Company’s accounting estimates.

RLJ Lodging Trust
Non-GAAP and Accounting Commentary
 
Non-Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“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.
 
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 instead have 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

6

https://cdn.kscope.io/641aa36eafae5a2d75f1397161f1514e-image0a22.jpg

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 EBITDAre
The Company adjusts FFO, EBITDA, and EBITDAre for certain items that the Company considers 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, are 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.
Non-Cash Expenses: The Company excludes the effect of certain non-cash items such as the amortization of share-based compensation and non-cash income taxes.
Other Non-Operational Expenses: The Company excludes the effect of certain non-operational expenses representing income and expenses outside of the normal course of operations, including debt modification costs and hurricane-related costs that were not reimbursed by insurance, executive transition costs, receipts of prior year employee tax credits, and activist shareholder costs.

The Company previously presented Adjusted EBITDA with adjustments for noncontrolling interests in consolidated joint ventures. The rationale for including 100% of Adjusted EBITDA for consolidated joint ventures with noncontrolling interests is that the full amount of any debt of these consolidated joint ventures is reported in our consolidated balance sheet and metrics using debt to EBITDA provide a better understanding of the Company’s leverage. This is also consistent with NAREIT’s definition of EBITDAre.

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 its 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 any 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:

Pro forma adjustments: Acquired hotels
For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, no hotels were acquired.

The Company acquired the following hotels in August 2017 in conjunction with the FelCor merger:
DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Austin
