IRVING, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--FelCor Lodging Trust Incorporated (NYSE: FCH), owner of 77 primarily upper-upscale hotels and resorts, today reported operating results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2011.
Third Quarter Summary:
- Modified our $178 million CMBS loan to extend the maturity date two years, including extensions, beyond the original November 2011 maturity date, and is fully prepayable without penalty.
- Revenue per available room ("RevPAR") for 67 comparable hotels increased 5.0%. Excluding two hotels under renovation, same-store RevPAR increased 5.8%.
- Same-store Hotel EBITDA margin increased 93 basis points to 24.5% for the quarter.
- Adjusted FFO per share was $0.05, and Adjusted EBITDA was $52.0 million.
- Sold three hotels in the third quarter and one hotel in October for aggregate gross proceeds of $60.5 million.
- Net loss was $23.4 million.
Third Quarter Operating Results:
RevPAR (for 67 comparable hotels) was $99.04, a 5.0% increase compared to the same period in 2010. The increase was driven by a 3.3% increase in average daily rate ("ADR") to $130.43 and a 1.6% increase in occupancy to 75.9%. RevPAR for these hotels increased 7.3% in September. Excluding two hotels under renovation, same-store RevPAR increased 5.8% during the quarter. Comparable hotels exclude the seven hotels marketed for sale, one hotel in discontinued operations and two hotels acquired in 2011 (see page 10 for a description of our hotel groups).
“We continue to execute our strategic plan to increase long-term stockholder value, and our accretive portfolio repositioning continues to progress steadily. In the past year, we sold eight non-strategic hotels at roughly 12 times EBITDA, which is above the trading multiple for our common stock. We used substantially all of the asset sale proceeds to pay down debt and we remain committed to reducing leverage and strengthening our balance sheet,” said Richard A. Smith, FelCor's President and Chief Executive Officer.
“Our third quarter results reflect strong lodging fundamentals; corporate transient demand increased 5%, while new hotel supply has been at historic lows. We forecast accelerating RevPAR growth during the fourth quarter, reflecting continued improvement in demand and accelerating rate growth, as demonstrated in September. Our aggressive asset management and portfolio repositioning strategy continue to provide positive results as we remain the best performing hotel REIT, based on RevPAR change, since we completed our renovation program and first phase of asset sales,” added Mr. Smith.
Hotel EBITDA was $57.9 million, 8.0% higher than $53.6 million for the same period in 2010. Hotel EBITDA and other same-store metrics reflect 74 consolidated hotels (67 comparable hotels plus seven hotels marketed for sale). The same-store metrics include the Fairmont Copley Plaza, which was acquired in August 2010, and exclude three hotels owned at September 30, 2011 (one Embassy Suites hotel sold in October, which was classified as discontinued operations, and Royalton and Morgans, which were acquired in May 2011). Hotel EBITDA margin was 24.5%, 93 basis points higher than the same period in 2010.
Adjusted funds from operations (“FFO”) was $5.6 million, or $0.05 per share, which is $0.05 per share more than the same period in 2010.
Adjusted EBITDA (which includes our pro rata share of joint ventures) was $52.0 million, 8% higher than $48.2 million for the same period in 2010. Same-store Adjusted EBITDA was $50.2 million, 10.5% higher than $45.4 million for the same period in 2010.
Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $32.5 million, or $0.26 per share for the quarter, compared to net loss of $98.5 million, or $1.04 per share, for the same period in 2010. Our 2011 net loss included a $946,000 impairment charge, which was partially offset by a $701,000 net gain on sale of hotels. Our 2010 net loss included a $65.8 million impairment charge, which was partially offset by an $8.0 million gain from debt extinguishment.
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:
At September 30, 2011, we had $1.6 billion of consolidated debt, with an average interest rate of 7.5% and weighted average maturity of five years. We had $117.2 million of cash and cash equivalents and full availability under our $225 million line of credit.
In the third quarter, we repaid a $24.0 million CMBS loan secured by our Embassy Suites in New Orleans, which was scheduled to mature in 2012. We also repaid two loans aggregating $35.2 million, secured by two Embassy Suites hotels that were sold in July (in Dallas and Corpus Christi), using proceeds from the sale of those hotels.
In October, we modified our $178 million CMBS mortgage loan scheduled to mature in November 2011 and extended the maturity date for up to two years. The loan now bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.20% and is prepayable at any time, in whole or in part, with no penalty. We repaid $20 million of the principal with cash on hand reducing the outstanding balance to $158 million. The loan is secured by nine hotels. This extension provides us with additional flexibility for our asset sale program, as we anticipate selling six of the nine hotels at a future date.
“Modifying our $178 million CMBS loan allows us to retain the flexibility to sell assets with a pre-payable facility, preserve the very attractive interest rate and maintain the efficiency of the loan. We have a strong debt maturity profile today, with no debt maturing until late 2013. We will continue to identify opportunities to refinance our existing debt to extend maturities further and lower our overall cost of capital,” stated Andrew J. Welch, FelCor's Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.
Portfolio Management:
In the quarter, we spent $22.7 million on capital improvements at our hotels (including our pro rata share of joint venture expenditures). For all of 2011, we intend to spend approximately $95 million, in the aggregate, on capital improvement and ROI projects. Approximately $60 million, or 6% of our annual revenue, will be focused on renovating seven hotels, as part of our long-term capital program to maintain our portfolio quality and competitive positioning. The 2011 capital expenditures also include ROI projects, such as the redevelopment at the Fairmont Copley Plaza beginning this month. All 383 guest rooms, including 12 rooms that will be upgraded to Fairmont Gold (for a total of 71 Fairmont Gold rooms), will be renovated by mid-2012. In addition, the hotel will have a new 3,000 square-foot state-of-the-art rooftop fitness facility and day spa overlooking Boston's Back Bay neighborhood. We will also be completing an extensive redevelopment of the public areas and food and beverage facilities in 2012.
Since the end of the second quarter, we sold four non-strategic hotels for combined gross proceeds of $60.5 million as part of our previously announced portfolio repositioning plan, which contemplates selling up to 40 non-strategic hotels. We sold three hotels (in Orlando, Dallas and Corpus Christi) in July and one hotel (in Dallas) in October. We expect to sell another hotel (in Toronto) in early December. We intend to begin marketing an additional 15 non-strategic hotels in the near-term.
Outlook:
We are updating our 2011 guidance to reflect third quarter actual results and asset sales. The updated guidance includes the impact from the sale of a hotel in October and a hotel to be sold in December (representing approximately $300,000 of EBITDA for the two hotels from the time of sale to the end of the year). Our prior guidance did not assume the sale of these two hotels, and our updated guidance assumes no further dispositions. We anticipate that our portfolio RevPAR will increase between 6.0 and 7.0% for the fourth quarter.
For 2011, we anticipate:
- Adjusted EBITDA: between $207 million and $210 million;
- Adjusted FFO per share: between $0.17 and $0.19;
- Net loss attributable to FelCor: between $124 million and $121 million;
- Interest expense: approximately $141 million;
- Capital expenditures: approximately $95 million; and
- Weighted average shares and units outstanding: 117.3 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 White Paper on Funds From Operations approved by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), defines FFO as net income or loss attributable to parent (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect FFO 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.
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, including but not limited to those described below, 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 debt extinguishment and interest rate swaps - We exclude gains and losses related to debt extinguishment and interest rate swaps from FFO and 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.
- Impairment losses - We exclude the effect of impairment losses and gains or losses on disposition of assets in computing Adjusted FFO and Adjusted EBITDA because we believe that including these is not consistent with reflecting the ongoing performance of our remaining assets. Additionally, we believe that impairment charges and gains or losses on disposition of assets represent accelerated depreciation, or excess depreciation, and depreciation is excluded from FFO by the NAREIT definition and 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.
In addition, to derive Adjusted EBITDA we exclude gains or losses on the sale of depreciable assets because we believe that including them in EBITDA is not consistent with reflecting the ongoing performance of our remaining assets. Additionally, the gain or loss on sale of depreciable assets represents either accelerated depreciation or excess depreciation in previous periods, and depreciation is excluded from EBITDA.
Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA Margin
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 by eliminating all revenues and expenses from continuing operations not directly associated with hotel operations, including corporate-level expenses, depreciation and amortization, and expenses related to our capital structure. We eliminate corporate-level costs and expenses because we believe property-level results provide investors with supplemental information into the ongoing operational performance of our hotels and the effectiveness of management on a property-level basis. We eliminate depreciation and amortization because, even though depreciation and amortization are property-level expenses, we do not believe that these non-cash expenses, which are based on historical cost accounting for real estate assets, and implicitly assume that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time, accurately reflect an adjustment in the value of our assets. 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
Our management and Board of Directors 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 lodging 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. These non-GAAP financial measures as presented by us, may not be comparable to non-GAAP financial measures as calculated 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. Management compensates 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. Management strongly encourages investors to review our financial information in its entirety and not to rely on a single financial measure.
