Third Quarter 2011 Earnings Summary

Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc. (“Starwood” or the “Company”) today reported EPS from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2011 of $0.85 compared to a loss of $0.03 per share in the third quarter of 2010. Excluding special items, EPS from continuing operations was $0.60 for the third quarter of 2011 compared to $0.25 in the third quarter of 2010. These results for the third quarter of 2011 benefitted from an overall tax benefit primarily as a result of the favorable settlement of an IRS audit. This favorable IRS settlement reduced income tax expense by approximately $35 million in the quarter and contributed approximately $0.18 to EPS. As a result of the favorable IRS settlement, the effective income tax rate in the third quarter of 2011, excluding special items, was a benefit of 4.8%, compared to an expense of 23.0% in the third quarter of 2010. Special items in the third quarter of 2011 totaled approximately $47 million (after-tax) primarily related to a gain on an asset exchange transaction. Special items in the third quarter of 2010, which totaled a $52 million charge (after-tax), primarily related to a loss on the sale of one hotel.

Income from continuing operations was $165 million in the third quarter of 2011 compared to a loss of $5 million in the third quarter of 2010. Excluding special items, income from continuing operations was $118 million in the third quarter of 2011 compared to $47 million in the third quarter of 2010.

Net income was $163 million and $0.84 per share in the third quarter of 2011 compared to a loss of $6 million and $0.03 per share in the third quarter of 2010.

Frits van Paasschen, CEO said, “Our brands showed strong top-line results around the world, driving managed and franchised fees up 17% in the 3rd quarter. Our Company-operated hotels translated higher REVPAR into margin increases of 140 basis points. We are also pleased with our continued footprint growth. Over the past four years, we have opened almost 320 new hotels, bringing our total to 1,071. We expect to continue growing faster than the market, both in terms of REVPAR and footprint, thanks to our brand momentum and exposure to rapidly growing markets."

“It is still too early to have a clear view into 2012. There are, to be sure, many clouds over the global economy. But three facts give us cautious confidence. First, in developed markets, occupancies are now at 2007 levels and at a point where rates historically have always risen. And yet, few new hotels are being built. Second, many emerging markets are continuing to see strong growth. Even if economic activity were to cool down, we see unmet demand for hotels. Third, our efforts to gain share have enabled our brands to outgrow the marketplace for more than eight quarters in a row.”

“In an uncertain world, investors should also note that our balance sheet is in great shape, with net debt below $1.7 billion. In the coming weeks, our St. Regis Bal Harbour project will start generating cash as we begin closing on previously sold residential units. We expect more cash in 2012 as we complete this project."

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011 Earnings Summary

Income from continuing operations was $344 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to $104 million in the same period in 2010. Excluding special items, income from continuing operations was $273 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to $138 million in the same period in 2010. These results for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 benefitted by approximately $35 million from a significantly lower effective income tax rate as a result of the favorable settlement of an IRS audit.

Worldwide Same-Store company-operated gross operating profit margins increased approximately 140 basis points compared to 2010. International gross operating profit margins for Same-Store company-operated properties increased 60 basis points, negatively impacted by political unrest in the Middle East and North Africa. North American Same-Store company-operated gross operating profit margins increased approximately 200 basis points, driven by REVPAR increases and cost controls.

Management fees increased 21.3% to $114 million and franchise fees increased 11.6% to $48 million. Management fees benefited by approximately 300 basis points due to the conversion of 19 European hotels from franchise contracts to management contracts during the quarter. Excluding North Africa and Japan, management fees increased 25.8%.

During the third quarter of 2011, the Company signed 24 hotel management and franchise contracts, representing approximately 6,300 rooms, of which 15 are new builds and 9 are conversions from other brands. At September 30, 2011, the Company had over 350 hotels in the active pipeline representing almost 90,000 rooms.

During the third quarter of 2011, 19 new hotels and resorts (representing approximately 4,900 rooms) entered the system, including the Sheraton Chongqing (China, 401 rooms), Aloft Coimbatore (India, 170 rooms), Westin Guadalajara (Mexico, 221 rooms), Sheraton Baku (Azerbaijan, 207 rooms) and Sheraton Stamford (Connecticut, 379 rooms). Six properties (representing approximately 1,800 rooms) were removed from the system during the quarter.

Owned, Leased and Consolidated Joint Venture Hotels

Worldwide REVPAR for Starwood branded Same-Store Owned Hotels increased 16.2% (9.2% in constant dollars) in the third quarter of 2011 when compared to 2010. REVPAR at Starwood branded Same-Store Owned Hotels in North America increased 8.1%. Internationally, Starwood branded Same-Store Owned Hotel REVPAR increased 25.4% (13.3% in constant dollars).

Revenues at Starwood branded Same-Store Owned Hotels in North America increased 7.1% while costs and expenses increased 5.1% when compared to 2010. Margins at these hotels increased approximately 160 basis points.

Revenues at Starwood branded Same-Store Owned Hotels Worldwide increased 14.6% (7.6% in constant dollars) while costs and expenses increased 10.7% (4.5% in constant dollars) when compared to 2010. Margins at these hotels increased approximately 265 basis points.

Revenues at owned, leased and consolidated joint venture hotels were $441 million, compared to $427 million in 2010. Expenses at owned, leased and consolidated joint venture hotels were $361 million compared to $352 million in 2010. Third quarter results were impacted by six renovations and four asset sales.

Vacation Ownership

Total vacation ownership revenues increased 7.0% to $138 million compared to 2010. Originated contract sales of vacation ownership intervals increased 3.8% primarily due to increased tour flow from new buyers and improved sales performance from existing owner channels. The number of contracts signed increased 8.2% when compared to 2010 and the average price per vacation ownership unit sold decreased 2.7% to approximately $14,000, driven by inventory mix.

Selling, General, Administrative and Other

Selling, general, administrative and other expenses decreased 2.2% to $88 million compared to $90 million in 2010. Selling, general, administrative and other expenses declined relative to 2010 due to lower accruals for incentive compensation and lower legal expenses.

Capital

Gross capital spending during the quarter included approximately $79 million of maintenance capital and $77 million of development capital. Net investment spending on vacation ownership interest (“VOI”) and residential inventory was $30 million, primarily related to the St. Regis Bal Harbour project.

Asset Exchange Transaction

On September 30, 2011, the Company executed a transaction with its former partner in a joint venture that owned three luxury hotels in Austria. In connection with the transaction, the Company acquired two of the hotels, Hotel Imperial (Vienna) and Hotel Goldener Hirsch (Salzburg), in exchange for its interest in the third hotel, Hotel Bristol (Vienna), and a cash payment, by the Company, of approximately $27 million. The Company entered into a long-term management contract for the Hotel Bristol. The Company recorded a pretax gain of approximately $48 million and a deferred gain of approximately $30 million in connection with this transaction.

Balance Sheet

At September 30, 2011, the Company had gross debt of $2.797 billion, excluding $388 million of debt associated with securitized vacation ownership notes receivable. Additionally, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1.122 billion (including $135 million of restricted cash), and net debt of $1.675 billion, compared to net debt of $1.740 billion as of June 30, 2011. Net debt at September 30, 2011 including debt and restricted cash ($17 million) associated with securitized vacation ownership notes receivables was $2.046 billion.

At September 30, 2011, debt was approximately 77% fixed rate and 23% floating rate and its weighted average maturity was 3.5 years with a weighted average interest rate of 6.79% excluding the securitized debt. The Company had cash (including current restricted cash) and availability under the domestic and international revolving credit facility of approximately $2.625 billion.

During the quarter, the Company received an IRS refund of approximately $40 million.

Outlook

For the Full Year 2011:

• Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be approximately $980 million to $990 million, assuming:

• REVPAR increases at Same-Store Company Operated Hotels Worldwide of 7% to 9% in constant dollars (approximately 200 basis points higher in dollars at current exchange rates).
• REVPAR increases at Branded Same-Store Owned Hotels Worldwide of 8% to 10% in constant dollars (approximately 300 basis points higher in dollars at current exchange rates).
• Asset sales completed to date reduce EBITDA for the year by approximately $20 million.
• Margin increases at Branded Same-Store Owned Hotels Worldwide of 150 to 200 basis points.
• Management fees, franchise fees and other income increase of approximately 11% to 13%, negatively impacted by approximately 200 basis points by Japan and North Africa.
• Earnings from our vacation ownership and residential business of approximately $140 million to $145 million.
• Selling, general and administrative expenses increase 3% to 4%.

• Depreciation and amortization is expected to be approximately $302 million.
• Interest expense is expected to be approximately $225 million and cash taxes will be approximately $65 million.

• Full year effective tax rate is expected to be approximately 25%, which excludes a $35 million tax benefit from the settlement of an IRS audit previously discussed.
• Assuming all of the above, EPS before special items is expected to be approximately $1.75 to $1.79, which excludes a tax benefit of approximately $0.18 from an IRS settlement previously discussed.
• Full year capital expenditure (excluding vacation ownership and residential inventory) is expected to be approximately $250 million for maintenance, renovation and technology. In addition, in-flight investment projects and prior commitments for joint ventures and other investments are expected to total approximately $200 million. Vacation ownership (excluding Bal Harbour) is expected to generate approximately $200 million in positive cash flow.
• The Company currently expects closings on Bal Harbour residential units to commence in late fourth quarter 2011. The Company’s Outlook excludes revenue recognition or cash flows associated with these potential closings. The Company does, however, expect there to be revenue recognition and cash flows from closings in the fourth quarter of 2011. We expect incremental earnings from Bal Harbour to be approximately $10 million which represents $0.03 of incremental EPS. Bal Harbour capital expenditure for 2011 is expected to be approximately $150 million and cash from closings is expected to be approximately $30 million.

For the three months ended December 31, 2011:

• Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be approximately $270 million to $280 million, including asset sales completed to date, which reduce EBITDA by approximately $8 million, and assuming:

• REVPAR increases at Same-Store Company Operated Hotels Worldwide of 6% to 8% in constant dollars and at current exchange rates.
• REVPAR increases at Branded Same-Store Owned Hotels Worldwide of 6% to 8% in constant dollars and at current exchange rates.
• Management fees, franchise fees and other income increase of approximately 7% to 9%, negatively impacted by approximately 200 basis points by Japan and North Africa.
• Earnings from our vacation ownership and residential business are flat to up $5 million.

• Depreciation and amortization is expected to be approximately $76 million.
• Interest expense is expected to be approximately $56 million.
• Income from continuing operations is expected to be approximately $103 million to $111 million, reflecting an effective tax rate of approximately 25%.
• Assuming all of the above, EPS before special items is expected to be approximately $0.53 to $0.57.
• In addition, Bal Harbour residential unit closings could add $10 million of earnings and $0.03 of incremental EPS.

For the Full Year 2012:

In Developed markets, the macroeconomic environment remains uncertain with high unemployment and high public/private debt. While there are increasing concerns about slower, “new” normal demand growth, the lodging supply situation is very favorable. In Emerging markets, macroeconomic growth has been strong, driving high secular growth in both lodging demand and supply. We remain of the view that several scenarios could play out.

• Assuming REVPAR increases at Same-Store Company Operated Hotels Worldwide of 4% to 8% in constant dollars:
  • Adjusted EBITDA would be approximately $1.030 billion to $1.120 billion, which corresponds to an EPS range of approximately $1.96 to $2.25.
    • This includes a $20 million year over year decrease due to renovations, asset sales and foreign exchange shifts, but does not include any earnings from Bal Harbour residential unit closings.
• A 1% change in REVPAR impacts Company-wide EBITDA by approximately $15 million, and a 1% change in the US dollar versus a basket of foreign currencies impacts Company-wide EBITDA by approximately $5 million.

Special Items

The Company’s special items netted to a benefit of $45 million ($47 million after-tax) in the third quarter of 2011 compared to a charge of $55 million ($52 million after-tax) in the same period of 2010.

The following represents a reconciliation of income from continuing operations before special items to income from continuing operations including special items (in millions, except per share data):

(a) Diluted shares for the three months ended September 30, 2010 were 190 million.

(b) During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company recorded restructuring credits associated with the reversal of previous restructuring reserves no longer deemed necessary.

(c) During the three months ended September 30, 2011, the net gain primarily relates to the asset exchange transaction described in this press release. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the gain from the asset exchange transaction was partially offset by the impairment of a minority investment in a joint venture hotel located in Japan.

During the three months ended September 30, 2010, the net loss primarily reflects a loss on the sale of one hotel. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the charges above were partially offset by $14 million from property insurance proceeds related to an owned hotel damaged by a tornado and a $5 million gain that resulted from the step acquisition of a controlling interest in a previously unconsolidated joint venture.

(d) During the three months ended September 30, 2011, the benefit relates primarily to a tax benefit on the asset exchange transaction described above, and the utilization of capital loss carry forwards, partially offset by tax expense as the result of a settlement of an IRS audit. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, in addition to the activity in the third quarter, the tax benefit primarily relates to the sale of two wholly-owned hotels with high tax bases as a result of a previous transaction.

During the three months ended September 30, 2010, the benefit primarily relates to a tax benefit on the sale of one hotel. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the net expense primarily relates to tax expenses at the statutory rate for restructuring credits and losses partially offset by the adjustment of deferred taxes associated with prior year impairment charges due to the change in a foreign tax rate.

The Company has included the above supplemental information concerning special items to assist investors in analyzing Starwood’s financial position and results of operations. The Company has chosen to provide this information to investors to enable them to perform meaningful comparisons of past, present and future operating results and as a means to emphasize the results of core on-going operations.

Starwood will be conducting a conference call to discuss the third quarter financial results at 10:30 a.m. (EDT) today at [phone]. The conference call will be available through a simultaneous web cast in the Investor Relations/Press Releases section of the Company’s website at http://www.starwoodhotels.com. A replay of the conference call will also be available from 1:30 p.m. (EDT) today through November 3, 2011 at 12:00 midnight (EDT) on both the Company’s website and via telephone replay at [phone] (pass code #16728664).

Definitions

All references to EPS, unless otherwise noted, reflect earnings per diluted share from continuing operations attributable to Starwood’s common shareholders. All references to continuing operations, discontinued operations and net income reflect amounts attributable to Starwood’s common shareholders (i.e. excluding amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests). All references to “net capital expenditures” mean gross capital expenditures for timeshare and fractional inventory net of cost of sales. EBITDA represents net income before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization. The Company believes that EBITDA is a useful measure of the Company’s operating performance due to the significance of the Company’s long-lived assets and level of indebtedness. EBITDA is a commonly used measure of performance in its industry which, when considered with GAAP measures, the Company believes gives a more complete understanding of the Company’s operating performance. It also facilitates comparisons between the Company and its competitors. The Company’s management has historically adjusted EBITDA (i.e., “Adjusted EBITDA”) when evaluating operating performance for the total Company, as well as for individual properties or groups of properties, because the Company believes that the inclusion or exclusion of certain recurring and non-recurring items, such as restructuring, goodwill impairment and other special charges and gains and losses on asset dispositions and impairments, is necessary to provide the most accurate measure of core operating results and as a means to evaluate comparative results. The Company’s management also uses Adjusted EBITDA as a measure in determining the value of acquisitions and dispositions and it is used in the annual budget process. The Company has historically reported this measure to its investors and believes that the continued inclusion of Adjusted EBITDA provides consistency in its financial reporting and enables investors to perform more meaningful comparisons of past, present and future operating results and provides a means to evaluate the results of its core on-going operations. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to represent cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP and such metrics should not be considered as an alternative to net income, cash flow from operations or any other performance measure prescribed by GAAP. The Company’s calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may be different from the calculations used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited.

All references to Same-Store Owned Hotels reflect the Company’s owned, leased and consolidated joint venture hotels, excluding condo hotels, hotels sold to date and hotels undergoing significant repositionings or for which comparable results are not available (i.e., hotels not owned during the entire periods presented or closed due to seasonality or natural disasters). References to Company Operated Hotel metrics (e.g. REVPAR) reflect metrics for the Company’s owned and managed hotels. References to System-Wide metrics (e.g. REVPAR) reflect metrics for the Company’s owned, managed and franchised hotels. REVPAR is defined as revenue per available room. ADR is defined as average daily rate.

All references to revenues in constant dollars represent revenues, excluding the impact of the movement of foreign exchange rates. The Company calculates revenues in constant dollars by calculating revenues for the current year using the prior year’s exchange rates. The Company uses this revenue measure to better understand the underlying results and trends of the business, excluding the impact of movements in foreign exchange rates.

All references to contract sales or originated sales reflect vacation ownership sales before revenue adjustments for percentage of completion accounting methodology. All references to earnings from vacation ownership and residential represents operating income before depreciation expense.

All references to management and franchise revenues represent base and incentive fees, franchise fees, amortization of deferred gains resulting from the sales of hotels subject to long-term management contracts and termination fees.

Some of the projects may require additional third-party approvals or permits for development and build out and may also be subject to legal challenges as well as a commitment of capital by the Company. The actual number of units to be constructed may be significantly lower than the number of future units indicated.
