Compared
to Net Loss of $23.4 million in the Year-ago Quarter;

Hotel Operating Statistics

IRVING, Texas--(November 1,2012)--FelCor Lodging Trust Incorporated (NYSE: FCH), today reported operating results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2012.

Summary:

  • Revenue per available room (“RevPAR”) for 66 same-store hotels (45 core and 21 non-strategic) increased 6.2% for the quarter.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $53.2 million.
  • Adjusted funds from operations ("FFO") per share was $0.08.
  • Net loss was $19.6 million.
  • Sold three non-strategic hotels (one in August and two in October) for $95.5 million. Proceeds were used to repay debt and the remaining $38 million of accrued preferred dividends on October 31. Expect to sell one additional non-strategic hotel for gross proceeds of $8.7 million. To date, we have sold 19 of 39 hotels.
  • Closed five non-crossed 10-year secured loans bearing an average interest rate of 4.95%, raising $160.8 million. Used a portion of the proceeds to repay a $107 million mortgage loan (secured by seven properties) at 9.02%.

Third Quarter Operating Results:

RevPAR for 66 same-store hotels was $107.78, a 6.2% increase compared to the same period in 2011. The increase reflects a 6.9% increase in average daily rate (“ADR”) to $144.06 and a 50 basis point decrease in occupancy to 74.8%. RevPAR for our core hotels increased 6.6%, while RevPAR at our non-strategic hotels increased 4.7%. RevPAR at newly-acquired and redeveloped hotels increased 12.0% during the quarter and 14.3% during the month of September.

Commenting on third quarter results, Richard A. Smith, President and Chief Executive Officer of FelCor, said, “I am pleased with our results, as our RevPAR growth exceeded the industry average. Our efforts to remix customer segments and increase ADR have been successful, and ADR growth exceeded our expectations. While food and beverage profit was significantly above prior year, it was below our expectations and impacted our margins. Nonetheless, our operating results met the low-end of our expectations. Overall, lodging fundamentals remain strong. Transient demand continues to be solid, and supply growth is at historically low levels. These tailwinds will bolster U.S. RevPAR for the next few years.”

Added Mr. Smith, “We have made great progress in repositioning the portfolio and restructuring the balance sheet. As of today, we will have sold 10 non-strategic hotels this year, including four since the second quarter. Our asset sale program is ahead of plan and we are currently in discussions with buyers for an additional six hotels. Our strategy will result in a high-growth, diversified portfolio that will outperform the industry for the foreseeable future. We have used the sale proceeds to pay all the accrued preferred dividends and to support our overall balance sheet restructuring plan to lower our leverage and cost of capital. During the quarter, we repaid our lone 2013 debt maturity and refinanced a 2014 debt maturity at a much higher loan-to-value, while reducing the interest rate significantly.”

Hotel EBITDA was $59.2 million, which was 8.4% higher than the same period in 2011. Hotel EBITDA and other same-store metrics reflect 66 same-store hotels.

Same-store Adjusted EBITDA was $51.6 million, 9.9% higher than the $46.9 million for the same period in 2011. Adjusted EBITDA (which includes Adjusted EBITDA for sold hotels prior to sale) was $53.2 million, 2.4% higher than the same period in 2011.

Adjusted FFO was $10.0 million, or $0.08 per share, compared to $0.05 per share for the same period in 2011. Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $28.7 million, or $0.23 per share for the quarter, compared to a net loss of $32.5 million, or $0.26 per share, for the same period in 2011.

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 18 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.

Year to Date Operating Results:

RevPAR for 66 same-store hotels was $104.31, a 5.1% increase compared to the same period in 2011. The increase was driven by a 5.8% increase in ADR to $141.91. Displacement from renovations and redevelopments adversely affected revenue by $10 million.

Hotel EBITDA was $174.8 million, 6.1% higher than the $164.8 million for the same period in 2011.

Same-store Adjusted EBITDA was $147.0 million, 8.1% higher than the $136.0 million for the same period in 2011. Adjusted EBITDA (which includes Adjusted EBITDA for sold hotels prior to sale) was $160.8 million, 0.2% higher than the same period in 2011.

Adjusted FFO was $30.3 million, or $0.24 per share, which is $0.07 per share higher than the prior year. Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $64.7 million, or $0.52 per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to a net loss of $125.8 million, or $1.10 per share, for the same period in 2011.

Portfolio Repositioning:

During the quarter, we sold the 222-room Embassy Suites - Anaheim-North for $25.5 million.

On October 25, 2012, we completed the sale of the 370-room Embassy Suites - New Orleans-Convention Center and the 296-room Embassy Suites - Nashville-Airport for an aggregate purchase price of $70 million. The hotels' operating performance is included in discontinued operations during the third quarter and year-to-date.

We have agreed to sell the Sheraton Crescent Hotel in Phoenix for $8.7 million. The buyer made a hard-money deposit toward the purchase price, and we expect the sale to close in the immediate future.

Through today, we will have sold 19 of 39 non-strategic hotels as part of our portfolio repositioning plan. Twenty non-strategic hotels remain to be sold. Of those, 10 have been brought to market or are in the preliminary marketing stage. We are currently in discussion with buyers to sell six of these hotels. Ten remaining hotels will be brought to market in 2013. We will use the proceeds from dispositions to repay debt and augment our balance sheet, which, when fully restructured, will provide a flexible foundation for improved long-term FFO and stockholder value.

Capital Expenditures:

We spent $26.9 million and $101.0 million on capital improvements at our operating hotels during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively (including our pro rata share of joint venture expenditures).

During 2012, we anticipate spending approximately $85 million on improvements and renovations, a majority of which is focused on 12 hotels, including six of our largest properties. We will also spend $35 million this year on value-enhancing redevelopment projects at three hotels: Morgans, the Embassy Suites-Myrtle Beach-Oceanfront Resort and The Fairmont Copley Plaza. Please see page 12 of this release for more detail on renovations.

Our redevelopment of the 4+ star Knickerbocker Hotel, located in midtown Manhattan, is progressing as planned. We have spent $18 million in excess of the acquisition costs to date, and this project remains on schedule and on budget, with opening scheduled at the end of 2013.

Balance Sheet:

At September 30, 2012, we had $1.6 billion of consolidated debt, with an average interest rate of 7.5%. Our debt has a weighted average maturity of 4.8 years and none of our debt matures before June 2014. We had $112.1 million of cash and cash equivalents and $81.6 million in restricted cash as of September 30, 2012.

During the quarter, we closed five single asset-mortgage loans totaling $160.8 million. The 10-year loans mature in 2022, bear an average fixed interest rate of 4.95% and are not cross-collateralized. A portion of the proceeds from the new loans were used to repay the 9.02% mortgage loan, which had an outstanding balance of $107 million and would have otherwise matured in 2014. The repaid loan was secured by a pool of seven hotels, including four of the five hotels mortgaged to support the new loans. The remaining three hotels that secured the repaid loan (two of which are non-strategic) are now unencumbered.

We also repaid the remaining $60 million balance of a CMBS loan using excess proceeds from the new loan and recent asset sales. This repaid loan, which would have otherwise matured in 2013, was secured by five properties. Of these five properties, one property now secures a new loan and the remaining four are now unencumbered.

On October 31, we paid dividends of $2.39 per share on our Series A Preferred Stock and $2.45 per depositary share evidencing the Series C Preferred Stock. The dividend payment to holders of the Series A Preferred Stock included the current quarterly dividends of $0.4875 per share and accrued preferred dividends of $1.9025 per share. The dividend payment to holders of the Series C Preferred Stock included the current quarterly dividends of $0.50 per depositary share and accrued preferred dividends of $1.95 per depositary share. FelCor has now paid all of the outstanding accrued preferred dividends.

Andrew J. Welch, FelCor's Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, said, “We continue to progress toward completely restructuring our balance sheet, including reducing leverage, reducing our average interest rate and extending and staggering our debt maturity profile. We have lowered our weighted-average cost of debt by 23 basis points in the last twelve months and expect to ultimately reduce our cost of debt to roughly 6.0%, as we repay and refinance debt."

Outlook:

Our 2012 operating outlook reflects updated timing for asset sales and third quarter results, which met the low-end of our expectations. We are increasing the low-end of our Adjusted EBITDA guidance and maintaining the low-end of our same-store Adjusted EBITDA guidance for 57 hotels.

During 2012, we anticipate:

  • Same-store RevPAR to increase between 5.5% and 6.0%;
  • Adjusted EBITDA to be between $200 million and $204 million;
  • Adjusted FFO per share to be between $0.21 and $0.25;
  • Net loss attributable to FelCor to be between $40 million and $36 million; and
  • Interest expense, including pro rata share of joint ventures, to be $129 million.

Our previous outlook assumed the sale of 12 hotels (three of which have been sold and one will be sold in the immediate future). For comparing to our previous outlook, we are providing the following data that reconciles the current Adjusted EBITDA outlook to 2012 Same-store Adjusted EBITDA (in millions). Same-store Adjusted EBITDA reflects EBITDA for 57 hotels (i.e., giving pro forma effect to selling the remaining hotels):

Our $225 million line of credit can be extended for one year (to 2015), subject to satisfying certain conditions.
(b)
The hotels securing this debt are subject to separate loan agreements and are not cross-collateralized.
(c)

LIBOR (for this loan) is subject to a 3% floor. We purchased an interest rate cap ($202 million notional amount) that caps LIBOR at 5.4% and expires May 2013.

(d)

These notes have $492 million in aggregate principal outstanding ($144 million and $96,000 in aggregate principal amount was redeemed in June 2011 and January 2012, respectively) and were initially sold at a discount that provided an effective yield of 12.875% before transaction costs.

(e)

This loan is related to our Knickerbocker redevelopment project and is fully secured by restricted cash and a mortgage. Because we were able to assume an existing loan when we purchased this hotel, we were not required to pay any local mortgage recording tax. When that loan is transferred to a new lender and made part of our construction loan, we expect to only pay such tax to the extent of the incremental principal amount of the construction loan.

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 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.

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 extinguishment of debt and interest rate swaps - We exclude gains and losses related to extinguishment of debt 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.

  • 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 and impairment losses 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 and impairment losses 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.
