IRVING, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

FelCor Lodging Trust Incorporated FCH today reported results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2016.

Third Quarter Highlights

  • Same-store RevPAR decreased 0.7% compared to the same period in 2015.
  • Net loss was $4.9 million ($0.08 per share) versus a net loss of $8.1 million ($0.10 per share) for the same period in 2015.
  • Adjusted FFO per share increased 12% to $0.28 from the same period in 2015.
  • Adjusted EBITDA increased $2.0 million to $67.1 million from the same period in 2015.
  • Sold two hotels (Renaissance Esmeralda Indian Wells Resort and Holiday Inn Nashville Airport) for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $108 million.

"Our room revenue was impacted negatively this quarter by a combination of softer demand, tropical storms, and aggressive discounting programs offered by some of our brands. However, increases in non-room revenue, our various cost containment initiatives implemented earlier this year and our Wyndham guarantee enabled us to meet our Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted FFO per share expectations," said Troy A. Pentecost, FelCor's President, Interim Senior Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer.

"During the quarter, we also made progress with our planned hotel sales, selling both the Renaissance Esmeralda and the Holiday Inn Nashville and continuing the marketing process with Jones Lange LaSalle for our three New York hotels. While our primary focus remains on the asset sales, we also are moving forward with our planned redevelopment projects," added Mr. Pentecost.

"Our Board of Directors and management team remain confident in our strategy to drive long-term stockholder value. We are dedicated to continued strengthening of our balance sheet and creating capacity for accretive investments," concluded Mr. Pentecost.

 

Third Quarter Hotel Results

     
Third Quarter
2016     2015     Change
Same-store hotels (37)
RevPAR $ 159.78 $ 160.95 (0.7 )%
Total hotel revenue, in millions $ 204.8 $ 203.1 0.8 %
Hotel EBITDA, in millions $ 66.9 $ 67.4 (0.7 )%
Hotel EBITDA margin 32.7 % 33.2 % (50) bps
 

RevPAR for our 37 same-store hotels decreased 0.7% (to $159.78) from the same period in 2015. The change reflects a 0.6% increase in average daily rate, or ADR, (to $195.33) and a 1.3% decline in occupancy (to 81.8%). Several of our markets, accounting for 42% of total room nights, experienced softer transient and group demand, and many of our hotels in the Southeast were negatively impacted by weather. Additionally, some brands implemented programs designed to drive more direct bookings and decrease online travel agent dependence, which resulted in more rate discounting across our portfolio than anticipated. While these programs did, and may continue to negatively impact our RevPAR, we expect the offsetting reduction in online travel agent commissions will result in greater profitability. In the meantime, we are working closely with the brands to optimize their discounting and maximize profitability at our hotels.

Wyndham Worldwide Corporation has guaranteed a minimum annual NOI on eight of our hotels over the ten-year terms of their management agreements. Hotel EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2016 includes $1.8 million in fee reductions related to the Wyndham guarantee compared to $0.3 million during the same period last year.

Third Quarter
$ in millions, except for per share information 2016     2015     Change
Net loss $ (4.9 ) $ (8.1 ) 39.8 %
Net loss per share $ (0.08 ) $ (0.10 ) $ 0.02

Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $11.4 million ($0.08 per share) in 2016, compared to a net loss of $14.5 million ($0.10 per share) for the same period in 2015. Net loss in 2016 includes a $20.1 million impairment charge for one hotel and severance costs of $6.1 million, partially offset by a $4.9 million net gain on hotel sales (including a $3.1 million loss in discontinued operations). Net loss in 2015 included a $20.9 million impairment charge for a hotel subsequently sold in 2016 and a $3.6 million charge for severance costs, partially offset by a $3.6 million net gain on hotel sales (including $491,000 in discontinued operations).

Year-to-Date Operating Results

Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $15.5 million ($0.11 per share) in 2016, compared to a net loss of $34.7 million ($0.26 per share) for the same period in 2015. Net loss in 2016 includes impairment charges of $26.5 million attributable to two hotels (one of which was sold in 2016) and a $6.1 million charge for severance costs. These charges are partially offset by a $3.5 million net gain on hotel sales (including a $3.1 million loss in discontinued operations). Net loss in 2015 included $30.9 million in debt extinguishment charges, a $20.9 million impairment charge for a property subsequently sold in 2016 and a $3.6 million charge for severance costs, partially offset by a $19.9 million net gain on the sale of consolidated hotels (including $407,000 in discontinued operations) and a $7.1 million gain on the sale of an unconsolidated joint venture.

RevPAR for our 37 same-store hotels increased 1.7% (to $155.17) from the same period in 2015. The change reflects a 2.0% increase in ADR (to $193.19) and a 0.2% decline in occupancy (to 80.3%). Hotel EBITDA for our 37 same-store hotels increased by 1.7% to $186.6 million, and Hotel EBITDA margin was 31.2%, a 16 basis point decrease.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Same-store Adjusted EBITDA, Hotel EBITDA, Hotel EBITDA margin, FFO, Adjusted FFO and Adjusted FFO per share are all non-GAAP financial measures. See our discussion of "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" beginning on page 14 for a reconciliation of each of these measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measure and for information regarding the use, limitations and importance of these non-GAAP financial measures.

Balance Sheet

As of September 30, 2016, we had $1.3 billion of gross consolidated debt with a 5.4% weighted-average interest rate and a seven-year weighted-average maturity. We had $50.4 million of cash and cash equivalents on hand and $22.1 million of restricted cash.

Capital Allocation

We continually strive to increase long-term stockholder value through prudent capital allocation. As part of this ongoing effort, we regularly evaluate opportunities to redeploy capital to achieve higher returns and strengthen our balance sheet.

Asset Sales

We sold two hotels during the third quarter. The 560-room Renaissance Esmeralda Indian Wells Resort sold for $76 million, and the 383-room Holiday Inn Nashville Airport sold for $32 million. We used the net proceeds to repay funds drawn under our line of credit. We continue to market our three New York hotels.

Stock Repurchase Program

In 2015, our Board approved a $100 million stock repurchase program, which we began implementing in December 2015. To date, we have purchased 6.6 million shares for $44.8 million (at an average price of $6.78 per share), including 477,000 shares during the third quarter.

Common Dividend

During the third quarter, we declared a $0.06 per share common stock dividend, which was paid at the end of October. Our Board of Directors will determine future quarterly common stock dividends based on funds available for distribution, reinvestment opportunities within our portfolio and taxable income, among other things.

Capital Expenditures

During the first nine months of 2016, we invested $51.6 million in renovations and redevelopment projects at our hotels. During 2016, we plan to invest approximately $60 million in renovations as part of our long-term capital plan. In addition, we expect to invest approximately $15 million in redevelopment projects this year, primarily at the Embassy Suites Myrtle Beach Oceanfront Resort and The Vinoy Renaissance St. Petersburg Resort and Golf Club. These projects are underway and remain on schedule and within budget. We are also progressing with obtaining entitlements and planning for several other high-ROI redevelopment projects. These projects will contribute to future EBITDA growth. We target unlevered internal rates of return of at least 15% for these projects.

Outlook

We are updating our 2016 guidance to reflect third quarter results and ongoing softness in transient and group demand for the remainder of the year. Our outlook assumes Hotel EBITDA for the Wyndham hotels equals the amount guaranteed by Wyndham for 2016 (corresponding to approximately $59 million of Hotel EBITDA).

For full year 2016, we now expect:

  • Net income attributable to FelCor will be $0.6 - $4.6 million;
  • RevPAR for same-store hotels will increase 1.25 - 1.5%;
  • Adjusted EBITDA will be $236.0 - $240.0 million;
  • Adjusted FFO per share will be $0.88 - $0.90; and
  • Interest expense, including our pro rata share from joint ventures, will be $80.1 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We refer in this release to certain "non-GAAP financial measures." These measures, including FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Same-store Adjusted EBITDA, Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin, are measures of our financial performance that are not calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The following tables reconcile each of these non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measure. Immediately following the reconciliations, we include a discussion of why we believe these measures are useful supplemental measures of our performance and the limitations of such measures.

Substantially all of our non-current assets consist of real estate. 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 industry investors consider supplemental measures of performance, which are not measures of operating performance under GAAP, to be helpful in evaluating a real estate company's operations. These supplemental measures are not measures of operating performance under GAAP. However, we consider these non-GAAP measures to be supplemental measures of a hotel REIT's performance and should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income (loss) attributable to FelCor as a measure of our operating performance.

FFO and EBITDA

The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") defines Funds From Operations ("FFO") as net income or loss attributable to parent (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of property, plus depreciation, amortization and impairment losses. FFO for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated on the same basis. We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by NAREIT. This may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do.

Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA") is a commonly used measure of performance in many industries. We define EBITDA as net income or loss attributable to parent (computed in accordance with GAAP) plus interest expenses, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect EBITDA on the same basis.

Adjustments to FFO and EBITDA

We adjust FFO and EBITDA when evaluating our performance because management believes that the exclusion of certain additional items provides useful supplemental information to investors regarding our ongoing operating performance and that the presentation of Adjusted FFO, and Adjusted EBITDA when combined with GAAP net income attributable to FelCor, EBITDA and FFO, is beneficial to an investor's better understanding of our operating performance.

Gains and losses related to extinguishment of debt and interest rate swaps - We exclude gains and losses related to extinguishment of debt and interest rate swaps from Adjusted FFO and Adjusted EBITDA because we believe that it is not indicative of ongoing operating performance of our hotel assets. This also represents an acceleration of interest expense or a reduction of interest expense, and interest expense is excluded from EBITDA.

  • Cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle - Infrequently, the Financial Accounting Standards Board promulgates new accounting standards that require the consolidated statements of operations to reflect the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. We exclude these one-time adjustments in computing Adjusted FFO and Adjusted EBITDA because they do not reflect our actual performance for that period.
  • Other expenses and costs - From time to time, we periodically incur expenses or transaction costs that are not indicative of ongoing operating performance. Such costs include, but are not limited to, conversion costs, acquisition costs, pre-opening costs, severance costs and certain non-cash adjustments. We exclude these costs from the calculation of Adjusted FFO and Adjusted EBITDA.
  • Variable stock compensation - We exclude the cost associated with our variable stock compensation. This cost is subject to volatility related to the price and dividends of our common stock that does not necessarily correspond to our operating performance.

In addition, to derive Adjusted EBITDA, we exclude gains or losses on the sale of depreciable assets and impairment losses because including them in EBITDA is inconsistent with reporting the ongoing performance of our remaining assets. Additionally, the gain or loss on sale of depreciable assets and impairment losses represents either accelerated depreciation or excess depreciation in previous periods, and depreciation is excluded from EBITDA. We also exclude the amortization of our fixed stock and directors' compensation, which is included in corporate expenses and is not separately stated on our statements of operations. Excluding amortization of our fixed stock and directors' compensation maintains consistency with the EBITDA definition.

Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin are commonly used measures of performance in the hotel industry and give investors a more complete understanding of the operating results over which our individual hotels and brand/managers have direct control. We believe that Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin are useful to investors by providing greater transparency with respect to two significant measures that we use in our financial and operational decision-making. Additionally, using these measures facilitates comparisons with other hotel REITs and hotel owners. We present Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin in a manner consistent with Adjusted EBITDA, however, we also eliminate all revenues and expenses from continuing operations not directly associated with hotel operations, including other income and corporate-level expenses. We eliminate these additional items because we believe property-level results provide investors with supplemental information regarding the ongoing operational performance of our hotels and the effectiveness of management on a property-level basis. We also eliminate consolidated percentage rent paid to unconsolidated entities, which is effectively eliminated by noncontrolling interests and equity in income from unconsolidated subsidiaries, and include the cost of unconsolidated taxes, insurance and lease expense, to reflect the entire operating costs applicable to our consolidated hotels. Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margins are presented on a same-store basis.

Use and Limitations of Non-GAAP Measures

We use FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Same-store Adjusted EBITDA, Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin to evaluate the performance of our hotels and to facilitate comparisons between us and other hotel REITs, hotel owners who are not REITs and other capital intensive companies. We use Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin in evaluating hotel-level performance and the operating efficiency of our hotel managers.

The use of these non-GAAP financial measures has certain limitations. As we present them, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar non-GAAP financial measures as presented by other real estate companies. These measures do not reflect certain expenses or expenditures that we incurred and will incur, such as depreciation, interest and capital expenditures. We compensate for these limitations by separately considering the impact of these excluded items to the extent they are material to operating decisions or assessments of our operating performance. Our reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP financial measures, and our consolidated statements of operations and cash flows, include interest expense, capital expenditures, and other excluded items, all of which should be considered when evaluating our performance, as well as the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures.

These non-GAAP financial measures are used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. They should not be considered as alternatives to operating profit, cash flow from operations, or any other operating performance measure prescribed by GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures reflect additional ways of viewing our operations that we believe, when viewed with our GAAP results and the reconciliations to the corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business than could be obtained absent this disclosure. We strongly encourage investors to review our financial information in its entirety and not to rely on a single financial measure.
