Philadelphia, PA, November 2, 2011 -- Hersha Hospitality Trust (NYSE: HT), owner of select service and upscale hotels in major metropolitan markets, today announced results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2011.
Third Quarter 2011 Operating Results
For the quarter ended September 30, 2011, revenue per available room (“RevPAR”) for the Company's consolidated hotels, 50 hotels as of September 30, 2011, compared to 49 hotels as of September 30, 2010, was up 8.3% to $127.40, compared to $117.64 in the prior year period. The Company’s average daily rate (“ADR”) for its consolidated hotels increased by 6.9% to $157.94, while occupancy for its consolidated hotels increased by 104 basis points to 80.66%.
Hotel EBITDA for the Company’s consolidated hotels grew approximately 24.2%, or $6.5 million, to $33.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. Hotel EBITDA margins expanded 220 basis points to 41.7% in the third quarter of 2011, compared to 39.6% in the same quarter of 2010.
On a same-store basis (44 hotels), RevPAR for the Company’s consolidated hotels for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 was up 8.3% to $129.02, compared to $119.18 in the prior year period. ADR for the Company’s same-store consolidated hotels increased by 6.5% to $158.08, while occupancy for its same-store consolidated hotels increased by 129 basis points to 81.62%. Hotel EBITDA for the Company’s same-store consolidated hotels for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 increased approximately 14.6%, or $3.7 million, to $29.1 million compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2010.
Hotel EBITDA margins for the Company’s same-store consolidated hotels increased 240 basis points to 42.3% in the third quarter of 2011, compared to 39.9% in the third quarter of 2010. The benefit of ADR-driven RevPAR growth was partially offset by payroll and benefits cost increases along with rising food and beverage expenses.
New York City
The New York City consolidated hotel portfolio, which includes the five boroughs, consisted of 14 hotels as of September 30, 2011. For the third quarter of 2011, the Company’s same-store New York City consolidated hotel portfolio (13 hotels) recorded a 9.7% increase in RevPAR to $188.54 driven by a 9.3% increase in ADR to $206.30 and relatively stable occupancy of 91.39%. This focus on ADR growth resulted in Hotel EBITDA margin growth of 190 basis points to 45.5%.
Mr. Jay H. Shah, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, stated, “Our strong third quarter operating results continue to reflect the strength of our core portfolio as we again achieved industry leading Hotel EBITDA margins driven by strong RevPAR growth during the third quarter of 2011. Our hotels benefited from our strong geographic presence in major urban cities such as New York, Boston and Los Angeles, achieving rate-driven RevPAR growth and solid margin expansion. Hersha has emerged from the recession with a more attractive geographic concentration, a higher quality portfolio with a younger average age, and significantly greater financial flexibility on its balance sheet. We have been driving industry-leading results, and we are now increasingly well-positioned to continue to increase value for all stakeholders as we move forward.”
Third Quarter 2011 Financial Results
For the third quarter ended September 30, 2011, net loss applicable to common shareholders was $(25.0) million compared to net income of $0.1 million for the comparable quarter of 2010. The loss in the current year quarter was driven by an impairment charge related to the previously announced sale of a portfolio of 18 non-core hotel properties. During the quarter, the Company took a major step in executing its non-core disposition plan by entering into contracts to sell 18 assets in order to reposition the portfolio and recycle capital towards anticipated high growth urban gateway markets. Results presented in this release exclude these 18 assets as they are classified under discontinued operations.
Adjusted Funds from Operations (“AFFO”) in the third quarter increased by $5.3 million to $24.8 million, compared to $19.5 million in the third quarter of 2010. AFFO per diluted common share and unit of limited partnership interest in Hersha Hospitality Limited Partnership (“OP Unit”) was $0.14, compared to $0.13 for the same quarter of 2010. The Company’s weighted average diluted common shares and OP Units outstanding was approximately 179.5 million in the third quarter of 2011, up from approximately 150.3 million in the comparable quarter of 2010.
An explanation of Funds from Operations (“FFO”), AFFO, Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”), Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA, as well as reconciliations of FFO, AFFO, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to net income or loss, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, is included at the end of this release.

Financing
As of September 30, 2011, the Company had $29.0 million of borrowings on its $250.0 million secured credit facility, $94.8 million in cash and escrows and no debt maturities in 2011. Excluding borrowings under the Company’s secured credit facility, approximately 95.0% of the Company’s consolidated debt as of September 30, 2011 is fixed rate debt or effectively fixed through interest rate swaps and caps and has a weighted average interest rate of approximately 5.66%. The weighted average life to maturity of total consolidated debt is approximately 5.6 years.
During the quarter, the Company entered into a $30.0 million loan secured by the Courtyard by Marriott, Los Angeles, CA. The new mortgage loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 4.947% and matures on September 29, 2015. The Company also refinanced an $11.9 million mortgage loan secured by a land parcel located on Eighth Avenue in New York City. The new mortgage loan bears interest at a variable rate of the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus 1.0%, with a floor of 6.0%. This loan matures on July 1, 2013.
Asset Disposition
As previously announced, the Company entered into definitive agreements to sell 18 non-core hotels, which consists of 14 consolidated hotels and 4 hotels owned through unconsolidated joint ventures, for approximately $155 million. The sale of these non-core assets significantly improves the Company’s hotel operating metrics and further reduces the average age of the portfolio. The Company expects to generate net cash proceeds of approximately $54.4 million from the sale of these hotels, which will be used to further reduce debt and for general corporate purposes. The Company currently anticipates closing on the sale of the entire portfolio in the fourth quarter of 2011, subject to the receipt of lender and franchisor consents and the satisfaction or waiver of other customary conditions.
For the third quarter ended September 30, 2011, ADR for the consolidated non-core hotels being sold (14 hotels) was $109.17, 30.9% less than the ADR for the remainder of the consolidated portfolio (50 hotels), which was $157.94. Hotel EBITDA margins of 34.8% for the non-core hotels being sold were approximately 690 basis points less than the Hotel EBITDA margins for the remainder of the consolidated portfolio, which were 41.7%.
The Company recognized a $30.2 million impairment charge for those consolidated assets being sold for which the purchase price did not exceed the carrying value. Contingent upon closing, the Company will be able to record a gain of approximately $4 million to $5 million on those consolidated properties being sold in which the carrying value of the assets exceeded the sale price.
Asset Development
As previously announced, in July 2011, the Company completed the acquisition of the Hampton Inn Downtown located at 32 Pearl Street in New York City, a hotel redevelopment project, for a total purchase price of $28.3 million. Through the end of the third quarter, the Company has spent approximately $2.7 million of the anticipated $4.5 million in development costs and expects the project to be completed by the end of the first quarter of 2012.

Non-GAAP Measures
FFO and AFFO
The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) developed Funds from Operations (“FFO”) as a non-GAAP financial measure of performance of an equity REIT in order to recognize that income-producing real estate historically has not depreciated on the basis determined under GAAP. We calculate FFO applicable to common shares and Partnership units in accordance with the April 2002 National Policy Bulletin of NAREIT, which we refer to as the White Paper. The White Paper defines FFO as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding extraordinary items as defined under GAAP and gains or losses from sales of previously depreciated assets, plus certain non-cash items, such as loss from impairment of assets, depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Our interpretation of the NAREIT definition is that noncontrolling interest in net income (loss) should be added back to (deducted from) net income (loss) as part of reconciling net income (loss) to FFO. Our FFO computation may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not compute FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or that interpret the NAREIT definition differently than we do.
The GAAP measure that we believe to be most directly comparable to FFO, net income (loss) applicable to common shares, includes depreciation and amortization expenses, gains or losses on property sales and noncontrolling interest. In computing FFO, we eliminate these items because, in our view, they are not indicative of the results from our property operations.
Hersha also presents Adjusted Funds from Operations (AFFO), which reflects FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition further adjusted by:
|
|
·
|
adding back write-offs of deferred financing costs on debt extinguishment, both for consolidated and unconsolidated properties;
|
|
|
·
|
adding back amortization of deferred financing costs;
|
|
|
·
|
making adjustments for the amortization of original issue discount/premium;
|
|
|
·
|
adding back non-cash stock expense;
|
|
|
·
|
adding back acquisition and terminated transaction expenses;
|
|
|
·
|
adding back FFO attributed to our partners in consolidated joint ventures; and
|
|
|

making adjustments to ground lease payments, which are required by GAAP to be amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, to reflect the actual lease payment.

FFO and AFFO do not represent cash flows from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of the Company’s performance or to cash flow as a measure of liquidity or ability to make distributions. We consider FFO and AFFO to be meaningful, additional measures of our operating performance because they exclude the effects of the assumption that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time, and because they are widely used by industry analysts as performance measures. We show both FFO from consolidated hotel operations and FFO from unconsolidated joint ventures because we believe it is meaningful for the investor to understand the relative contributions from our consolidated and unconsolidated hotels. The display of both FFO from consolidated hotels and FFO from unconsolidated joint ventures allows for a detailed analysis of the operating performance of our hotel portfolio by management and investors. We present FFO and AFFO applicable to common shares and Partnership units because our Partnership units are redeemable for common shares. We believe it is meaningful for the investor to understand FFO and AFFO applicable to all common shares and Partnership units.

Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, and Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) is a non-GAAP financial measure within the meaning of the Securities and Exchange Commission rules. Our interpretation of Adjusted EBITDA is that EBITDA derived from our investment in unconsolidated joint ventures should be added back to net income (loss) as part of reconciling net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA. Our Adjusted EBITDA computation may not be comparable to EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA reported by other companies that interpret the definition of EBITDA differently than we do. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA to be a meaningful measure of a REIT's performance because it is widely followed by industry analysts, lenders and investors and that it should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income, cash flow, FFO and AFFO, as a measure of the company's operating performance.

Hotel EBITDA
Hotel EBITDA is a commonly used measure of performance in the hotel industry for a specific hotel or group of hotels. We believe Hotel EBITDA provides a more complete understanding of the operating results of the individual hotel or group of hotels. We calculate Hotel EBITDA by utilizing the total revenues generated from hotel operations less all operating expenses, property taxes, insurance and management fees, which calculation excludes Company expenses not specific to a hotel, such as corporate overhead. Because Hotel EBITDA is specific to individual hotels or groups of hotels and not to the Company as a whole, it is not directly comparable to any GAAP measure and should not be relied on as a measure of performance for our portfolio of hotels taken as a whole.
Supplemental Schedules
The Company has published supplemental earnings schedules in order to provide additional disclosure and financial information for the benefit of the Company’s stakeholders. These can be found in the Investor Relations section and the “SEC Filings and Presentations” page of the Company’s web site, www.hersha.com.
