Supertel Hospitality, Inc., and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Three Months Ended March 31, 2012 and 2011

(Unaudited)

General

Supertel Hospitality, Inc. (SHI) was incorporated in Virginia on August 23, 1994. SHI is a self-administered real estate investment trust (REIT) for federal income tax purposes.

SHI, through its wholly owned subsidiaries, Supertel Hospitality REIT Trust and E&P REIT Trust (collectively, the “Company”) owns a controlling interest in Supertel Limited Partnership (“SLP”) and E&P Financing Limited Partnership (“E&P LP”). All of the Company’s interests in 88 properties with the exception of furniture, fixtures and equipment on 68 properties held by TRS Leasing, Inc. and its subsidiaries are held directly or indirectly by E&P LP, Supertel Limited Partnership or Solomon’s Beacon Inn Limited Partnership (SBILP) (collectively, the “Partnerships”). The Company’s interests in ten properties are held directly by either SPPR-Hotels, LLC (SHLLC), SPPR-South Bend, LLC (SSBLLC), or SPPR-BMI, LLC (SBMILLC). SHI, through Supertel Hospitality REIT Trust, is the sole general partner in Supertel Limited Partnership and at March 31, 2012 owned approximately 99% of the partnership interests in Supertel Limited Partnership. Supertel Limited Partnership is the general partner in SBILP. At March 31, 2012, Supertel Limited Partnership and SHI owned 99% and 1% interests in SBILP, respectively, and SHI owned 100% of Supertel Hospitality Management, Inc, SPPR Holdings, Inc. (SPPRHI), and SPPR-BMI Holdings, Inc. (SBMIHI). Supertel Limited Partnership and SBMIHI owned 99% and 1% of SBMILLC, respectively. Supertel Limited Partnership and SPPRHI owned 99% and 1% of SHLLC, respectively, and Supertel Limited Partnership owned 100% of SSBLLC. References to “we”, “our”, and “us”, herein refer to Supertel Hospitality, Inc., including as the context requires, its direct and indirect subsidiaries.

As of March 31, 2012, the Company owned 98 limited service hotels. All of the hotels are leased to our wholly owned taxable REIT subsidiary, TRS Leasing, Inc. (“TRS”), and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively “TRS Lessee”), and are managed by Hospitality Management Advisors, Inc. (“HMA”), Strand Development Company, LLC (“Strand”), Kinseth Hotel Corporation (“Kinseth”), and HLC Hotels Inc. (“HLC”).

The hotel management agreement, as amended, between TRS Lessee and Royco Hotels, the previous manager of 95 of the Company’s hotels, was terminated effective May 31, 2011. The agreement provided for Royco Hotels to operate and manage the hotels through December 31, 2011, with extension to December 31, 2016 upon achievement of average annual net operating income of at least 10% of the Company’s investment in the hotels. Under the agreement, Royco Hotels received a base management fee ranging from 4.25% to 3.0% of gross hotel revenues as revenues increased above thresholds that ranged from up to $75 million to over $100 million, and was entitled, if earned, to an annual incentive fee of 10% of up to the first $1.0 million of annual net operating income in excess of 10% of the Company’s investment in the hotels, and 20% of the excess above $1.0 million. On March 25, 2011, Royco Hotels and the Company settled a lawsuit filed by Royco Hotels against the Company. The settlement agreement between the parties provides that the Company will pay an aggregate of $590,000 in varying amounts of installments through July 1, 2013 to Royco Hotels (of which $300,000 has been paid as of March 31, 2012) as financial settlement of the lawsuit and fees owed to Royco Hotels as termination fees for hotels that have been sold.

On April 21, 2011, the Company through TRS Lessee entered into separate management agreements with HMA, Strand and Kinseth as eligible independent operators to manage 95 of the Company’s hotels (two of which were subsequently sold) commencing June 1, 2011. These hotels were previously managed by Royco Hotels.

HMA manages 24 Company hotels in Arkansas, Louisiana, Tennessee, Kentucky, Indiana, Virginia and Florida. Strand manages the Company’s seven economy extended-stay hotels in Georgia and South Carolina as well as 16 additional Company hotels located in Georgia, Delaware, Maryland, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia. Kinseth manages 44 Company hotels in eight states primarily in the Midwest. Each of the management agreements expire on May 31, 2014 and will renew for additional terms of one year unless either party to the agreement gives the other party written notice of termination at least 90 days before the end of a term.

Each of HMA, Strand and Kinseth receives a monthly management fee with respect to the hotels they manage equal to 3.5% of the gross hotel income and 2.25% of hotel net operating income (“NOI”). NOI is equal to gross hotel income less operating expenses (exclusive of management fees, certain insurance premiums and employee bonuses, and personal and real property taxes).

SLP owns 7 hotels which are operated under the Masters Inn name. TRS, the lessee of the hotels, entered into a management agreement with HLC, an affiliate of the sellers of the 7 hotels. The management agreement, as amended, provides for HLC to operate and manage the hotels through December 31, 2013 and receive management fees equal to 5.0% of the gross revenues derived from the operation of the hotels and incentive fees equal to 10% of the annual operating income of the hotels in excess of 10.5% of the Company’s investment in the hotels.

The management agreements generally require TRS Lessee to fund debt service, working capital needs, capital expenditures and third-party operating expenses for the management companies excluding those expenses not related to the operation of the hotels. TRS Lessee is responsible for obtaining and maintaining insurance policies with respect to the hotels.

The hotel industry is seasonal in nature. Generally, occupancy rates, revenues and operating results for hotels operating in the geographic areas in which we operate are greater in the second and third quarters of the calendar year than in the first and fourth quarters, with the exception of our hotels located in Florida, which experience peak demand in the first and fourth quarters of the year.

Consolidated Financial Statements

The Company has prepared the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2012, the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 without audit, in conformity with U. S. generally accepted accounting principles. In the opinion of management, all necessary adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) have been made to present fairly the financial position as of March 31, 2012 and the results of operations and cash flows for all periods presented. Balance sheet data as of December 31, 2011 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, have been condensed or omitted, although management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

Derivative Liabilities

The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks. However, fair value accounting requires bifurcation of certain embedded derivative instruments such as conversion features in convertible debt or equity instruments, and their measurement at fair value for accounting purposes. The conversion feature embedded in the Series C convertible preferred stock was evaluated, and it was determined that the conversion features should be bifurcated from its host instrument and accounted for as a freestanding derivative. In addition the common stock warrants issued with the Series C convertible preferred stock were also determined to be freestanding derivatives. The following summarizes our derivative liabilities at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011:

 

(in thousands)    March 31,      December 31,

   2012      2011

Derivative liabilities, at fair value

   $ 16,902       $ —     
  

 

 

    

 

 

 

The Series C convertible preferred stock embedded derivative and the warrant derivative were initially recorded at their fair value of $7.1 million and $8.6 million, respectively, on the date of issuance, February 1, 2012 and February 15, 2012. At March 31, 2012 the carrying amounts of the derivatives were adjusted to their fair value of $8.0 million and $8.9 million, respectively, with a corresponding adjustment to other income (expense). The derivatives are reported as a derivative liability on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2012 and will be adjusted to their fair values at each reporting date.

The amendment to the Company’s articles of incorporation, setting forth the terms of the Series C convertible preferred stock, the host instrument, includes an antidilution provision that requires an adjustment in the common stock conversion ratio should subsequent issuances of the Company’s common stock be issued below the instruments’ original conversion price of $1.00 per share. Accordingly we bifurcated the embedded conversion feature which is shown as a derivative liability recorded at fair value on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2012.

The agreement setting forth the terms of the common stock warrants issued to the holders of the Series C convertible preferred stock also includes an antidilution provision that requires a reduction in the warrant’s exercise price of $1.20 should the conversion ratio of the Series C convertible preferred stock be adjusted due to antidilution provisions. Accordingly, the warrants do not qualify for equity classification, and, as a result, the fair value of the derivative is shown as a derivative liability on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2012.

The company used a Monte Carlo simulation model to value the Series C convertible preferred stock embedded derivatives and the warrants.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements are utilized to determine the value of certain liabilities, to perform impairment assessments, and for disclosure purposes. In February 2012 the Company issued financial instruments with features that were determined to be derivative liabilities, and as a result must be measured at fair value on a recurring basis under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) 820-10 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures – Overall. In addition we apply the fair value provisions of ASC 820-10-35 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures – Overall – Subsequent Measurement, for our nonfinancial assets which include our held for sale hotels, and the disclosure of the fair value of our debt.

The Company’s financial instruments, the derivative liabilities, and the non financial assets, our held for sale hotels, are measured using inputs from level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).

Level 3 non- financial asset valuations use unobservable inputs that reflect our assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. We develop these inputs based on the best information available, including our own data. Financial asset and liability valuation inputs include unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the liability; this includes pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

Non financial assets

During the three months ending March 31, 2012, Level 3 inputs were used to determine non-cash impairment losses of $1.8 million on ten held for sale hotels and recovery of previously recorded impairment for which fair value exceeded management’s previous estimates in the amount of $0.4 million on two hotels that were reclassified into held for use. There was no impairment on held for use hotels.

During the three months ending March 31, 2011, Level 3 inputs were used to determine non-cash impairment losses of $0.1 million on five hotels held for sale, $0.2 million on three hotels subsequently sold and $0.2 million on one hotel placed that was subsequently placed back into held for use. The Company also recorded a recovery of $25,000 of previously recorded impairment loss on one hotel at the time of sale. There was no impairment on held for use hotels.

In accordance with ASC 360-10-36 Property Plant and Equipment – Overall – Subsequent Measurements, the Company determines the fair value of an asset held for sale based on the estimated selling price less estimated selling costs. We engage independent real estate brokers to assist us in determining the estimated selling price using a market approach. The estimated selling costs are based on our experience with similar asset sales.

Financial instruments

As of March 31, 2012, the fair value of the derivative liabilities in connection with the February 2012 issuance was determined by the Monte Carlo simulation method. The Monte Carlo simulation method is a generally accepted statistical method used to generate a defined number of stock price paths in order to develop a reasonable estimate of the range of future expected stock prices of the Company and its peer group and minimizes standard error.

The fair value of the Company’s financial liabilities carried at fair value and measured on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2012 are as follows (in thousands):

Discontinued Operations - Hotel Properties Held for Sale and Sold

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, two of the Company’s held for sale hotels were reclassified as held for use. The reclassification of these hotels was due to changes in the properties’ market condition. In addition, four more properties were declared held for sale. The effect of these changes relative to our previously filed financial statements was to decrease the loss from continuing operations by $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. At March 31, 2012 the Company had a total of twenty four hotels identified that it intends to sell and that met the Company’s criteria to be classified as held for sale. As a result of observed market activity and discussions with brokers, the Company recorded impairment loss of $1.8 million on ten of these hotels for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The Company also recorded recovery of $0.4 million of previously recorded impairment on the two hotels which were reclassified from held for sale to held for use. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, there was an impairment loss of $0.1 million on five hotels held for sale, a loss of $0.2 million on three hotels subsequently sold, and a recovery of $25,000 of previously recorded impairment loss on one hotel at the time of sale. There was also impairment of $0.2 million on one hotel that was subsequently placed back into held for use.

The fair value of an asset held for sale is based on the estimated selling price less estimated selling costs. We engage independent real estate brokers to assist us in determining the estimated selling price using a market approach. The estimated selling costs are based on our experience with similar asset sales. We record impairment charges and write down the carrying value of an asset if the carrying value exceeds the estimated selling price less costs to sell.

In accordance with FASB ASC 205-20 Presentation of Financial Statements – Discontinued Operations, gains, losses and impairment losses on hotel properties sold or classified as held for sale are presented in discontinued operations. The operating results of the hotels held for sale and sold are included in discontinued operations and are summarized below. The operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2012 include twenty four hotels held for sale and two hotels that were sold in 2012, and two hotels sold in 2011. The operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2011 include twenty four hotels held for sale, two hotels that were sold in 2012, and eleven hotels that were sold prior to 2012 (in thousands):

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing earnings attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed after adjusting the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation for the effects of any dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period, if any. The computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share is presented below:

Noncontrolling Interest of Common and Preferred Units in SLP

At March 31, 2012 and 2011 there were 97,008 and 158,161, respectively, of SLP common operating units outstanding held by the limited partners. These units have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as there would be no effect on the amounts allocated to the limited partners holding common operating units (whose units are convertible on a one-to-one basis to common shares) since their share of income (loss) would be added back to income (loss). During the second quarter of 2011, 61,153 shares of common stock were issued in connection with the redemption of 61,153 common operating units. In addition, the 11,424 and 51,035 shares of SLP preferred operating units held by the limited partners, as of March 31, 2012 and 2011 respectively, are antidilutive.

Stock Options

The potential common shares represented by outstanding stock options for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 totaled 215,500 and 255,143, respectively, all of which are antidilutive.

Warrants

On February 1, 2012 and February 15, 2012, in connection with the purchase of the Series C convertible preferred stock, the Company issued warrants to purchase 30,000,000 shares of the

Company’s common stock. Subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, these warrants are exercisable at any time on or before January 31, 2017 at an exercisable price of $1.20 per share of common stock. The exercisable price may be paid in cash, or the holder may also elect to pay the exercise price by having the Company withhold a sufficient number of shares from the exercise with a market value equal to the exercise price. These warrants are anti-dilutive due to the Company’s net losses, and are therefore excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share.

On May 10, 2010 the Company issued warrants to purchase 299,403 shares of Company common stock. These warrants are exercisable for a period of three years from the date of issuance at an exercise price of $2.50 per share of common stock. These warrants are anti-dilutive due to the Company’s net losses, and are therefore excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share.

Series C Convertible Preferred Stock

In two closings on February 1, 2012 and February 15, 2012, we completed the sale to Real Estate Strategies, L.P. of 3,000,000 shares of Series C convertible preferred stock in a private offering. The Series C convertible preferred stock is anti-dilutive due to the Company’s net losses, and is therefore excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share.

On February 2, 2012, we paid $11.8 million on the Great Western Bank revolving line of credit, bringing the balance to zero. The available capacity is expected to be used in part to fund the $20 million obligation for hotel investment. The payment was funded with a portion of the net proceeds from the Series C convertible preferred stock.

On February 3, 2012, the Company paid in full the $5.0 million balance on the revolving credit facility with Elkhorn Valley Bank, with a portion of the net proceeds from the sale of the Series C convertible preferred stock.

On February 16, 2012, the Company paid in full the $2.1 million note payable to Fredericksburg North Investors, LLC, with a portion of the net proceeds from the sale of the Series C convertible preferred stock.

On February 21, 2012, the Company amended its credit facilities with Great Western Bank to extend the maturity date of all loans to June 30, 2013.

On March 1, 2012, the Company amended its credit facility with First National Bank of Omaha to extend the maturity date to May 1, 2012. This debt was paid in full on April 20, 2012.

On March 27, 2012, the Company sold a Super 8 in Muscatine, Iowa (63 rooms) for approximately $1.3 million. The proceeds were used primarily to reduce a term loan with Great Western Bank, with the remaining amount used to reduce the revolving line of credit with Great Western Bank.

On March 29, 2012, the Company amended its credit facilities with General Electric Capital Corporation. These changes were reflected in the notes to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

At March 31, 2012, the Company had long-term debt of $120.6 million associated with assets held for use, consisting of notes and mortgages payable, with a weighted average term to maturity of 3.4 years and a weighted average interest rate of 6.4%. The weighted average fixed rate was 6.9%, and the weighted average variable rate was 4.0%. Debt held on properties in continuing operations is classified as held for use. Debt is classified as held for sale if the properties collateralizing it are included in discontinued operations. Debt associated with assets held for sale is classified as a short-term liability due within the next year irrespective of whether the notes and mortgages evidencing such debt mature within the next year. Aggregate annual principal payments on debt associated with assets held for use for the remainder of 2012 and thereafter, and debt associated with assets held for sale, are as follows (in thousands):

At March 31, 2012, the Company had $62.3 million of principal due in 2012. Of this amount, $40.9 million of the principal due is associated with either assets held for use or assets held for sale, and matures in 2012 pursuant to the notes and mortgages evidencing such debt. The remaining $21.4 million is associated with assets held for sale and is not contractually due in 2012 unless the related assets are sold. The maturities comprising the $40.9 million consist of:

 

 

a $29.0 million balance on the loan with Greenwich Capital;

 

 

a $0.8 million note payable to First National Bank of Omaha;

 

 

a $7.0 million principal prepayment required on our credit facilities with General Electric Capital Corporation:

 

 

a $1.1 million balance on a note payable to General Electric Capital Corporation; and

 

 

approximately $3.0 million of principal amortization on mortgage loans.

The $29.0 million balance of the loan with Greenwich Capital matures in December 2012. The loan is secured by 32 hotels. The Company may break up the portfolio into several tranches and secure financing with several local and / or regional banks, or it may consider other financing options. The process to identify lenders began in March 2012.

The $0.8 million note payable to First National Bank of Omaha was paid in full on April 20, 2012 with a portion of the proceeds from the sale of a Super 8 in El Dorado, Kansas (49 rooms).

On March 29, 2012, our credit facilities with General Electric Capital Corporation were amended to, among other things, require a principal prepayment of $7 million on or before December 31, 2012. This debt is expected to be funded from the proceeds of refinancing our hotels secured by Greenwich Capital.

The $1.1 million note payable to General Electric Capital Corporation is expected to be paid with available funds at the end of 2012.

We are required to comply with certain financial covenants for some of our lenders. As of March 31, 2012, the Company believes it was in compliance with all financial covenants. As a result, we believe we are not in default of any of our loans. However, the General Electric Capital Corporation (“GE”) before dividend consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio (“FCCR”) covenant allows EBITDA to be adjusted for nonrecurring expenses. As of March 31, 2012 the Company believes that all adjustments included in the covenant calculation are appropriate. If all adjustments are not accepted by GE, the Company will not have met its before dividend FCCR covenant. The cure provisions permit the Company to make a prepayment within 30 days after notice from the lender in an amount sufficient that would result in compliance with the before dividend FCCR for the period.

If a cure right is exercised, the Company estimates the debt prepayment amount would range from $0 to $1.5 million. If necessary to prepay debt in this range, the Company has the intention and ability to make such repayment within 30 days notice from GE.

Stock-Based Compensation

Options

The Company has a 2006 Stock Plan (the “Plan”) which has been approved by the Company’s shareholders. The Plan authorized the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and stock bonuses for up to 200,000 shares of common stock. At the annual shareholders meeting on May 28, 2009, the shareholders of Supertel Hospitality, Inc. approved an amendment to the Supertel 2006 Stock Plan. The amendment increases the maximum number of shares reserved for issuance under the plan from 200,000 to 300,000 and changes the definition of fair market value to mean the closing price of Supertel common stock with respect to future awards under the plan.

Share-Based Compensation Expense

The expense recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 for share-based compensation related to employees and directors was $0 and $14,400, respectively.

Impairment Losses

In accordance with FASB ASC 360-10-35 Property Plant and Equipment – Overall – Subsequent Measurement, the Company analyzes its assets for impairment when events or circumstances occur that indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable. As part of this process, the Company utilizes a two-step analysis to determine whether a trigger event (within the meaning of ASC 360-10-35) has occurred with respect to cash flow of, or a significant adverse change in business climate for, its hotel properties. Quarterly and annually the Company reviews all of its held for use hotels to determine any property whose cash flow or operating performance significantly underperformed from budget or prior year, which the Company has set as a shortfall against budget or prior year as 15% or greater.

Each quarter we apply a second analysis on those properties identified in the 15% change analysis or which have had a trigger event. The analysis estimates the expected future cash flows to identify any property whose carrying amount potentially exceeded the recoverable value. In performing this analysis, the Company makes the following assumptions:

 

   

Holding periods range from three to five years, for non-core assets, and ten years for those assets considered as core.

 

   

Cash flow from trailing twelve months for the individual properties multiplied by the holding period as noted above. The Company does not assume growth rates on cash flows as part of its step one analysis.

 

   

A revenue multiplier for the terminal value based on an average of historical sales from leading industry broker of like properties was applied according to the assigned holding period.

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, no trigger events as described in ASC 360-10-35 occurred for any of our held for use hotels. We recorded impairment losses of $1.8 million on ten held for sale hotels and we recovered impairment on two hotels reclassified as held for use from held for sale in the amount of $0.4 million.

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, there was an impairment loss of $0.1 million on five hotels held for sale, a loss of $0.2 million on three hotels subsequently sold, and a recovery of $25,000 of previously recorded impairment loss on one hotel at the time of sale. There was also impairment of $0.2 million on one hotel that was subsequently placed back into held for use.

Income Taxes

The TRS Lessee income tax benefit from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 was approximately $0.5 million and $0.6 million, respectively. The TRS Lessee has estimated its income tax benefit using a combined federal and state rate of 38%. As of March 31, 2012, TRS had a deferred tax asset of $6.5 million primarily due to current and past years’ tax net operating losses. These loss carryforwards will begin to expire in 2022. Management believes that it is more likely than not that the results of future operations will generate sufficient taxable income to realize the deferred tax asset and has determined that no valuation allowance is required.

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Company uses an estimate of its annual effective rate based on the facts and circumstances at the time while the actual effective rate is calculated at year-end. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and for net operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date. The realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Management’s evaluation of the need for a valuation allowance must consider positive and negative evidence, and the weight given to the potential effects of such positive and negative evidence is based on the extent to which it can be objectively verified.

Related to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, we follow a process by which the likelihood of a tax position is gauged based upon the technical merits of the position, perform a subsequent measurement related to the maximum benefit and the degree of likelihood, and determine the amount of benefit to be recognized in the financial statements, if any.

Noncontrolling Interest in Redeemable Preferred Units

At March 31, 2012, 11,424 of SLP’s preferred operating partnership units (“Preferred OP Units”) were outstanding. The redemption value for the Preferred OP Units is $0.1 million for March 31, 2012. Each limited partner of SLP may, subject to certain limitations, require that SLP redeem all or a portion of his or her Preferred OP Units, at any time after a specified period following the date the units were acquired, by delivering a redemption notice to SLP. The Preferred OP Units are convertible by the holders into Common operating units (“Common OP Units”) on a one-for-one basis or, pursuant to an extension agreement by the holders, may be redeemed for cash at the option of the holder at $10 per unit on or after October 24, 2012.

Preferred OP Units receive a preferred dividend distribution of $1.10 per preferred unit annually, payable on a monthly basis and do not participate in the allocations of profits and losses of SLP. Distributions to holders of Preferred OP Units have priority over distributions to holders of Common OP Units. Supertel offered to each of the Preferred OP Unit holders the option to extend until October 24, 2012 their right to have units redeemed at $10 per unit, and holders of 11,424 units elected to extend. These 11,424 units will continue to be carried outside of permanent equity at redemption value.

Series B Redeemable Preferred Stock

At March 31, 2012 there were 332,500 shares of 10.0% Series B preferred stock outstanding. The shares were sold on June 3, 2008 for $25.00 per share and bear a liquidation preference of $25.00 per share.

Supertel Hospitality, Inc., and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Three Months Ended March 31, 2012 and 2011

Dividends on the Series B preferred stock are cumulative and are payable quarterly in arrears on each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31, or, if not a business day, the next succeeding business day, at the annual rate of 10.0% of the $25.00 liquidation preference per share, equivalent to a fixed annual amount of $2.50 per share. Dividends on the Series B preferred stock accrue whether or not the Company has earnings, whether or not there are funds legally available for the payment of such dividends, whether or not such dividends are declared and whether or not such dividends are prohibited by agreement. Accrued but unpaid dividends on the Series B preferred stock will not bear interest.

The Series B preferred stock will, with respect to dividend rights and rights upon the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up, rank senior to the Company’s common stock, senior to all classes or series of preferred stock issued by the Company and ranking junior to the Series B preferred stock with respect to dividend rights or rights upon the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up, on a parity with the Company’s Series A preferred stock and Series C convertible preferred stock and with all classes or series of preferred stock issued by the Company and ranking on a parity with the Series B preferred stock with respect to dividend rights or rights upon the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up and junior to all of the Company’s existing and future indebtedness.

The Company will not pay any distributions, or set aside any funds for the payment of distributions, on its common shares, unless it has also paid (or set aside for payment) the full cumulative distributions on the preferred shares for the current and all past dividend periods. The Series B preferred stock has no stated maturity and is not subject to any sinking fund or mandatory redemption (except as described below).

The Series B preferred stock is not redeemable prior to June 3, 2013, except in certain limited circumstances relating to the maintenance of the Company’s ability to qualify as a REIT as provided in the Company’s articles of incorporation or a change of control (as defined in the Company’s amendment to its articles of incorporation establishing the Series B preferred stock). The Company may redeem the Series B preferred stock, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time on or after June 3, 2013 for cash at a redemption price of $25.00 per share, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends. Also, upon a change of control, each outstanding share of the Company’s Series B preferred stock will be redeemed for cash at a redemption price of $25.00 per share, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends. At March 31, 2012, no events have occurred that would lead the Company to believe redemption of the preferred stock, due to a change of control or failure to maintain its REIT qualification, is probable. There are no convertible provisions for Series B, therefore, there is no dilutive effect on earnings per share.

Series A Preferred Stock

On December 30, 2005, the Company offered and sold 1,521,258 shares of 8% Series A preferred stock. At March 31, 2012, 803,270 shares of Series A preferred stock remained outstanding. Dividends on the Series A preferred stock are cumulative and payable monthly in arrears on the last day of each month, at the annual rate of 8% of the $10.00 liquidation preference per share, equivalent to a fixed annual amount of $.80 per share. There are no convertible provisions for Series A, therefore, there is no dilutive effect on earnings per share.

Series C Convertible Preferred Stock

The Company entered into a Purchase Agreement dated November 16, 2011 for the issuance and sale of Supertel’s Series C convertible preferred stock and warrants under a private transaction to Real Estate Strategies, L.P. (“RES”). On January 31, 2012 at a special meeting, the shareholders of Supertel, by the requisite vote, approved the issuance and sale of up to 3,000,000 shares of the

Series C convertible preferred stock of Supertel, up to 30,000,000 shares of common stock of Supertel which may be issued upon conversion of the Series C convertible preferred stock, and warrants to purchase up to an additional 30,000,000 shares of common stock, to RES pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. In two closings on February 1, 2012 and February 15, 2012, the Company completed the sale to RES of 3,000,000 shares of Series C convertible preferred stock and warrants to purchase 30,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.20 per common share.

Each share of Series C convertible preferred stock is entitled to a dividend of $0.625 per year payable in equal quarterly dividends. Each share of Series C convertible preferred stock has a liquidation preference of $10.00 per share, in cash, plus an amount equal to any accrued and unpaid dividends. With respect to dividend rights and rights upon the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the Series C convertible preferred stock ranks: (a) on parity with the Series A preferred stock and Series B preferred stock and other future series of preferred stock designated to rank on parity, and (b) senior to the common stock and other future series of preferred stock designated to rank junior, and (c) junior to the Company’s existing and future indebtedness.

The Series C convertible preferred stock, at the option of the holder, is convertible at any time into common stock at a conversion price of $1.00 for each share of common stock, which is equal to the rate of ten shares of common stock for each share of Series C convertible preferred stock. A holder of Series C convertible preferred stock will not have conversion rights to the extent the conversion would cause the holder and its affiliates to beneficially own more than 34% of voting stock (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”). “Voting stock” means capital stock having the power to vote generally for the election of directors of the Company.

The Series C convertible preferred stock will vote with the common stock as one class, subject to certain voting limitations. For any vote, the voting power of the Series C convertible preferred stock will be equal to the lesser of: (a) 6.29 votes per share, or (b) an amount of votes per share such that the vote of all shares of Series C convertible preferred stock in the aggregate equal 34% of the combined voting power of all the Company voting stock, minus an amount equal to the number of votes represented by the other shares of voting stock beneficially owned by RES and its affiliates (the “Voting Limitation”).

As long as RES has the right to designate two or more directors to the Company Board of Directors pursuant to the Directors Designation Agreement, the following requires the approval of RES and IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones Sociedad Anónima (“IRSA”):

 

   

the merger, consolidation, liquidation or sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company;

 

   

the sale by the Company of common stock or securities convertible into common stock equal to 20% or more of the outstanding common stock or voting stock; or

 

   

any Company transaction of more than $120,000 in which any of its directors or executive officers or any member of their immediate family will have a material interest, exclusive of employment compensation and interests arising solely from the ownership of the Company equity securities if all holders of that class of equity securities receive the same benefit on a pro rata basis.

Equity Distribution Agreements

On March 26, 2010, the Company entered into a Standby Equity Distribution Agreement (the “SEDA”) with YA Global Master SPV Ltd. (“YA Global”), a fund managed by Yorkville Advisors, LLC. Pursuant to the SEDA, YA Global has agreed to purchase up to $10.0 million (which could have been increased to $20.0 million upon written notice from the Company to YA Global prior to March 26, 2011) (the “Commitment Amount”) of newly issued Company common stock, par value $0.01 per share if notified to do so by the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions of the SEDA. Unless terminated earlier, the SEDA will automatically terminate on the earlier of April 1, 2012 or the date on which the aggregate purchases by YA Global under the SEDA total the Commitment Amount. The amount of common stock issued or issuable pursuant to the SEDA, in the aggregate, cannot exceed 4,400,464 shares of common stock, which is less than 20% of the aggregate number of outstanding shares of common stock. The common stock is currently sold pursuant to the Company’s registration statement on Form S-3 (333-170756). No shares were sold under this agreement during the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. This agreement terminated as of April 1, 2012 by its terms.

On March 29, 2011, the Company entered into an equity distribution agreement with JMP Securities LLC (“JMP”) pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell up to 2.0 million shares of common stock from time to time through JMP. Sales of shares of the Company common stock, if any, under the agreement may be made in negotiated transactions or other transactions that are deemed to be “at the market” offerings, including sales made directly on the Nasdaq Global Market or sales made to or through a market maker other than on an exchange. The common stock will be sold pursuant to the Company’s registration statement on Form S-3 (333-170756). During the three months ended March 31, 2012 no shares were issued. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company sold (with settlement in April 2011), through JMP, as its agent, an aggregate of 26,725 shares of common stock pursuant to ordinary brokers’ transactions on the Nasdaq Global Market. Gross proceeds were $43,685, commissions to agent were $2,184 and net proceeds to the Company (before expenses) were $41,501.

Commitments and Contingencies

The Company entered into a Purchase Agreement dated November 16, 2011 for the issuance and sale of Supertel’s Series C convertible preferred stock and warrants under a private transaction with RES. In the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed that $20 million of the proceeds would be used to pursue hospitality acquisitions which are consistent with the investment strategy of the Company’s Board, as well as an additional $5 million to be used within a reasonable period. On March 27, 2012, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire the 100 room Hilton Garden Inn in Solomons Island, Maryland for $11.5 million. The purchase will be funded with capital from the preferred equity raise. The company currently has similar assets under review and anticipates that the funds will be fully deployed within the next six months.

In connection with the issuance and sale of the Series C convertible preferred stock and warrants pursuant to the Purchase Agreement with RES, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) dated February 1, 2012 with RES and IRSA. The Registration Rights Agreement requires the Company to register for resale by the holders the common stock issued upon conversion of the Series C convertible preferred stock and upon exercise of the warrants, and the warrants and the Series C convertible preferred stock. The Company is generally required to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement for the resale of the securities except for the securities sold under the registration statement or with respect to any securities that may be sold without registration under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. If the Company fails to file the registration agreement or maintain its effectiveness during the periods required by the Registration Rights Agreement, then the Company is required to pay the holders a liquidated damage amount, without limitation, in the aggregate amount of $20,000 for each week any such failure continues.

Litigation

Various claims and legal proceedings arise in the ordinary course of business and may be pending against the Company and its properties. Based upon the information available, the Company believes that the resolution of any of these claims and legal proceedings should not have a material adverse affect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Subsequent Events

On April 20, 2012, we sold a Super 8 in El Dorado, Kansas (49 rooms) for approximately $1.625 million. The proceeds were used to pay off the $0.8 million loan with First National Bank of Omaha, with additional funds applied to general corporate purposes.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, CONTINUED:

 

Our significant events for the three months ended March 31, 2012 include:

 

 

On January 18, 2012, we sold a Super 8 in Fayetteville, Arkansas (83 rooms) for approximately $1.56 million with a $0.4 million gain. The proceeds were used primarily to reduce a term loan with Great Western Bank.

 

 

In two closings on February 1, 2012 and February 15, 2012, we completed the sale to Real Estate Strategies, L.P. of 3,000,000 shares of Series C convertible preferred stock and warrants to purchase 30,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.20 per common share. The Company agreed to use $20 million of net proceeds to pursue hospitality acquisitions which are consistent with the investment strategy of the Company Board, as well as an additional $5 million within a reasonable period.

 

 

On February 2, 2012, we paid $11.8 million on the Great Western Bank revolving line of credit, bringing the balance to zero. The available capacity is expected to be used in part to fund the $20 million obligation for hotel investment. The payment was funded with a portion of the net proceeds from the Series C convertible preferred stock.

 

 

On February 3, 2012, we paid in full the $5.0 million balance on the revolving credit facility with Elkhorn Valley Bank, with a portion of the net proceeds from the sale of the Series C convertible preferred stock.

 

 

On February 16, 2012, we paid in full the $2.1 million note payable to Fredericksburg North Investors, LLC, with a portion of the net proceeds from the sale of the Series C convertible preferred stock.

 

 

On February 21, 2012, we amended our credit facilities with Great Western Bank to extend the maturity date of all loans to June 30, 2013.

 

 

On March 1, 2012 we amended our credit facility with First National Bank of Omaha to extend the maturity date to May 1, 2012. This debt was paid in full on April 20, 2012.

 

 

On March 27, 2012, we sold a Super 8 in Muscatine, Iowa (63 rooms) for approximately $1.3 million. The proceeds were used primarily to reduce a term loan with Great Western Bank, with the remaining amount used to reduce the revolving line of credit with Great Western Bank.

 

 

On March 27, 2012, we entered into an agreement to acquire the 100 room Hilton Garden Inn in Solomons Island, Maryland for $11.5 million. The purchase will be funded with a portion of the net proceeds from the sale of the Series C convertible preferred stock.

 

 

On March 29, 2012, we amended our credit facilities with General Electric Capital Corporation. These changes were reflected in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

We conduct our business through a traditional umbrella partnership REIT, or UPREIT, in which our hotel properties are owned by our operating partnerships, Supertel Limited Partnership and E&P Financing Limited Partnership, limited partnerships, limited liability companies or other subsidiaries of our operating partnerships. We currently own, indirectly, an approximate 99% general partnership interest in Supertel Limited Partnership and a 100% partnership interest in E&P Financing Limited Partnership.

As of March 31, 2012, we owned 98 limited service hotels. The hotels are leased to our wholly owned taxable REIT subsidiary, TRS Leasing, Inc, and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively “TRS Lessee”), and are managed by Hospitality Management Advisors, Inc. (“HMA”), Strand Development Company, LLC (“Strand”), Kinseth Hotel Corporation (“Kinseth”) and HLC Hotels Inc. (HLC). HLC is the manager of 7 of our hotels.

HMA manages 24 Company hotels in Arkansas, Louisiana, Tennessee, Kentucky, Indiana, Virginia and Florida. Strand manages the Company’s seven economy extended-stay hotels in Georgia and South Carolina as well as 16 additional Company hotels located in Georgia, Delaware, Maryland, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia. Kinseth manages 44 Company hotels in eight states primarily in the Midwest. Each of the management agreements expire on May 31, 2014 and will renew for additional terms of one year unless either party to the agreement gives the other party written notice of termination at least 90 days before the end of a term.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, CONTINUED:

 

Each of HMA, Strand and Kinseth receives a monthly management fee with respect to the hotels they manage equal to 3.5% of the gross hotel income and 2.25% of hotel net operating income (“NOI”). NOI is equal to gross hotel income less operating expenses (exclusive of management fees, certain insurance premiums and employee bonuses, and personal and real property taxes). Refer to “Net Operating Income” for a discussion of NOI and a reconciliation of NOI to Earnings Before Net Loss on Disposition of Assets, Other Income, Interest Expense and Income Taxes, a GAAP measurement.

HLC receives management fees equal to 5.0% of the gross revenues derived from the operation of the hotels and incentive fees equal to 10% of the annual operating income of the hotels in excess of 10.5% of the Company’s investment in the hotels. On August 9, 2011, the management agreement with HLC was extended for a period of two years.

Overview of Discontinued Operations

The condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 include the results of operations for the 24 hotels classified as held for sale at March 31, 2012, as well as all properties that have been sold during 2012 and prior years in accordance with ASC 205-20 Presentation of Financial Statements – Discontinued Operations.

The assets held for sale at March 31, 2012 and 2011 are separately disclosed in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Among other criteria, we classify an asset as held for sale if we expect to dispose of it within one year, we have initiated an active marketing plan to sell the asset at a reasonable price and it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan to sell the asset will be made. While we believe that the completion of these dispositions is probable, the sale of these assets is subject to market conditions and we cannot provide assurance that we will finalize the sale of all or any of these assets on favorable terms or at all. We believe that all our held for sale assets as of March 31, 2012 remain properly classified in accordance with ASC 205-20.

Where the carrying value of an asset held for sale exceeded the estimated fair value, net of selling costs, we reduced the carrying value and recorded an impairment charge. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, an impairment loss of $1.8 million for ten hotels held for sale was recorded by the Company. The Company also recorded recovery of $0.4 million of previously recorded impairment on two hotels which were reclassified as held for use. The fair value of an asset held for sale is based on the estimated selling price less estimated selling costs. We engage independent real estate brokers to assist us in determining the estimated selling price using a market approach. The estimated selling costs are based on our experience with similar asset sales.

The discontinued operations are the result of management’s strategy to reevaluate its hotels as well as the length of the period in which the company anticipates holding its properties based on new and more stringent criteria. These criteria include strategic review of debt service capability, estimated return on investment, and local market conditions.

Our continuing operations reflect the results of operations of those hotels which we are likely to retain in our portfolio for the foreseeable future as well as those assets which do not currently meet the held for sale criteria in ASC 205-20. We periodically evaluate the assets in our portfolio to ensure they continue to meet our performance objectives. Accordingly, from time to time, we could identify other assets for disposition.

Revenues and Operating Expenses

Revenues from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011, increased $0.4 million or 2.5%, which was primarily due to increased average daily rate (“ADR”). We refer to our entire portfolio as select service hotels which we further describe as upper midscale hotels, midscale hotels, economy hotels and extended stay hotels. Prior to this quarter ended March 31, 2012, we referred to our upper midscale and midscale hotels collectively as midscale hotels. The same store portfolio used for comparison of the first quarter of 2012 over the same period of 2011 consists of the 74 hotels in continuing operations that were owned by the Company as of January 1, 2011. Compared to the year ago period, ADR for the entire 74 same store hotel portfolio increased 3.7% to $48.26 and revenue per available room (“RevPAR”) increased 1.8% to $27.96. The occupancy for all same store hotels for the three months ended March 31, 2012 decreased 1.1 percentage points from that of the year ago period. Our 21 same store upper midscale hotels reflected an ADR increase of 1.2% to $66.16, an increase in occupancy of 8.8% and a RevPAR increase of 10.2% to $40.11 for the first quarter of 2012 over the same period of 2011. Our 6 midscale hotels reported an ADR increase of 1.2% to $60.01, an occupancy decrease of 0.9%, and a RevPAR increase of 0.4% to $27.86. Our 40 same store economy hotels reflected an ADR increase of 2.4% to $47.73, a decrease in occupancy of 5.2 percentage points and a decrease in RevPAR of 2.9% to $25.44 for the first quarter of 2012 over the same period of 2011. Occupancy for the seven same store extended stay properties dropped 6.3% to 71.9%, and RevPAR was down 2.7% to $17.54. ADR increased 3.9% to $24.40.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, CONTINUED:

 

During the first quarter of 2012, hotel and property operations expenses from continuing operations remained essentially flat compared with the first quarter of 2011.

Interest Expense, Depreciation and Amortization Expense and General and Administrative Expense

Interest expense from continuing operations decreased $0.2 million to $2.1 million for the quarter, primarily due to the paydown of the Great Western Bank revolver and the prepayment penalty in first quarter 2011. Depreciation and amortization expense from continuing operations declined $0.1 million from the first quarter of 2011 to $2.1 million. The general and administrative expense for the 2012 first quarter was unchanged compared to the 2011 first quarter.

Other Income

The increased expense resulted from a change in the fair value of derivative liabilities. The Series C convertible Preferred embedded derivative and the common stock warrants were valued by management with the assistance of a third party at issuance on February 1 and 15, 2012, for $7.1 million and $8.6 million, respectively. Both were deemed to be derivatives. The derivatives were revalued at March 31, 2012. The fair value of the derivative liabilities increased by an aggregate of $1.2 million, due primarily to an increase in the price of the common stock.

Impairment loss

For the first quarter of 2012, we recorded a net impairment charge of $1.4 million, composed of $1.8 million taken on ten hotels classified as held for sale and offset by impairment recovery of $0.4 million on two hotels reclassified as held for use. In the prior year there was a net impairment charge of $0.4 million against five held for sale hotels, one hotel subsequently reclassed as held for use, three hotels subsequently sold and a recovery on one hotel subsequently sold.

Termination cost

Termination cost reflects financial settlement fees directly related to the Company’s termination of Royco Hotels. The onetime charge of $0.5 million reflects settlement of the lawsuit filed by Royco Hotels against the Company.

Dispositions

In the first quarter of 2012, we recognized a $0.4 million gain on the sale of a Super 8 in Fayetteville, Arkansas, and a $0.1 million gain on the sale of a Super 8 in Muscatine, Iowa. In the first quarter of 2011, we recognized a negligible gain on the disposition of assets related to the sale of a Masters Inn in Atlanta (Tucker), Georgia.

Income tax benefit

The income tax benefit from continuing operations is related to the taxable loss from our taxable subsidiary, the TRS Lessee. Management believes the combined federal and state income tax rate for the TRS Lessee will be approximately 38%. The tax benefit is a result of TRS Lessee’s loss for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The income tax will vary based on the taxable earnings or loss of the TRS Lessee.

The income tax benefit from continuing operations was $0.5 million compared with a benefit of $0.6 million in the year ago period, due to a decreased loss by the TRS Lessee.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our income and ability to meet our debt service obligations, and make distributions to our shareholders, depends upon the operations of the hotels being conducted in a manner that maintains or increases revenue, or reduces expenses, to generate sufficient hotel operating income for TRS Lessee to pay the hotels’ operating expenses, including management fees and rents to us. We depend on rent payments from TRS Lessee to pay our operating expenses and debt service and to make distributions to shareholders.

The Company’s operating performance, as well as its liquidity position, has been and continues to be negatively affected by recent economic conditions, many of which are beyond our control. The Company anticipates that these adverse economic conditions may improve somewhat over the next year; however, in addition to our operating performance, the other sources described below will be essential to our liquidity and financial position.

Our business requires continued access to adequate capital to fund our liquidity needs. In February 2012 the Company issued 3 million shares of Series C convertible preferred stock which provided $28.6 million of net proceeds. The Company agreed to use $20 million to pursue hotel acquisitions, as well as an additional $5 million to be used within a reasonable period. In 2011, the Company reviewed its entire portfolio, identified properties considered non-core and developed timetables for disposal of those assets deemed non-core. We focused on improving our liquidity through cash generating asset sales and disposition of assets that are not generating cash at levels consistent with our investment principles. In 2012, our foremost priorities continue to be preserving and generating capital sufficient to fund our liquidity needs. Given the deterioration and uncertainty in the economy and financial markets, management believes that access to conventional sources of capital will be challenging and management has planned accordingly. We are also working to proactively address challenges to our short-term and long-term liquidity position.

The following are the expected actual and potential sources of liquidity, which if realized we currently believe will be sufficient to fund our near-term obligations:

 

   

Cash and cash equivalents;

 

   

Cash generated from operations;

 

   

Proceeds from asset dispositions;

 

   

Proceeds from additional secured or unsecured debt financings; and/or

 

   

Proceeds from public or private issuances of debt or equity securities.

The Company has significant indebtedness maturing before the end of the year, including a $29.0 million balance on a loan with Greenwich Capital maturing in December 2012. If we are not successful in negotiating the refinancing of this debt or any other maturing debt, or finding alternate sources of financing in a difficult borrowing environment, we will be unable to meet the Company’s near-term liquidity requirements.

These above sources are essential to our liquidity and financial position, and we cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully access them (particularly in the current economic environment). If we are unable to generate cash from these sources, we may have liquidity-related capital shortfalls and will be exposed to default risks. The significant issues with access to the liquidity sources identified above could lead to our insolvency.

In the near-term, the Company’s cash flow from operations is not projected to be sufficient to meet all of our liquidity needs. In response, management has identified non-core assets in our portfolio to be liquidated over a one to ten year period. Among the criteria for determining properties to be sold was the potential upside when hotel fundamentals return to stabilized levels. The properties held for sale as of March 31, 2012 were determined to be less likely to participate in increased cash flow levels when markets do improve. As such, we expect these dispositions to help us (1) preserve cash, through potential disposition of properties with current or projected negative cash flow and/or other potential near-term cash outlay requirements (including debt maturities) and (2) generate cash, through the potential disposition of strategically identified non-core assets that we believe have equity value above debt.

Part I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION, CONTINUED:

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, CONTINUED:

 

We are actively marketing the 24 properties held for sale, which we anticipate will result in the elimination of $25.9 million of debt and generate an expected $2.3 million of proceeds for operations. The marketing process has been affected by deteriorating economic conditions and we have experienced some decreases in expected pricing. If this trend continues to worsen, we may be unable to complete the disposition of identified properties in a manner that would generate cash flow in line with management’s estimates as noted above. Our ability to dispose of these assets is impacted by a number of factors. Many of these factors are beyond our control, including general economic conditions, availability of financing and interest rates. In light of the current economic conditions, we cannot predict:

 

   

whether we will be able to find buyers for identified assets at prices and/or other terms acceptable to us;

 

   

whether potential buyers will be able to secure financing; and

 

   

the length of time needed to find a buyer and to close the sale of a property.

As our debt matures, our principal payment obligations also present significant future cash requirements. We expect lenders will continue to maintain tight lending standards, which could make it more difficult for us to obtain future credit facilities on terms similar to the terms of our current credit facilities or to obtain long-term financing on favorable terms or at all.

We may not be able to successfully extend, refinance or repay our debt due to a number of factors, including decreased property valuations, limited availability of credit, tightened lending standards and deteriorating economic conditions. Historically, extending or refinancing loans has required the payment of certain fees to, and expenses of, the applicable lenders. Any future extensions or refinancing will likely require increased fees due to tightened lending practices. These fees and cash flow restrictions will affect our ability to fund other liquidity uses. In addition, the terms of the extensions or refinancing may include operational and financial covenants significantly more restrictive than our current debt covenants.

The Company is required to meet various financial covenants required by its existing lenders. If the Company’s future financial performance fails to meet these financial covenants, then its lenders also have the ability to take control of its encumbered hotel assets. Defaults with lenders due to failure to repay or refinance debt when due or failure to comply with financial covenants could also result in defaults under our credit facilities with Great Western Bank and General Electric Capital Corporation. Our Great Western Bank and General Electric Capital Corporation credit facilities contain cross-default provisions which would allow Great Western Bank and General Electric Capital Corporation to declare a default and accelerate our indebtedness to them if we default on our other loans, and such default would permit that lender to accelerate our indebtedness under any such loan. If this were to happen, whether due to failure to repay or refinance debt when due or failure to comply with financial covenants, the Company’s ability to conduct business could be severely impacted as there can be no assurance that the adequacy and timeliness of cash flow would be available to meet the Company’s liquidity requirements.

Sources and Uses of Cash

At March 31, 2012, available cash was $10.0 million and the Company’s available borrowing capacity on the Great Western Bank revolver was $12.5 million. The Company projected that at December 31, 2011 cash flows from operations and the available borrowing capacity from the revolver would be insufficient to meet both short term and long term liquidity requirements. As a consequence, in November 2011 the Company entered into an agreement to sell 3.0 million shares of Series C convertible preferred stock and obtained a $5 million revolving credit facility from Elkhorn Valley Bank to fund the Company until the closing of the Series C convertible preferred stock sale.

Short term outflows include monthly operating expenses, $0.2 million of termination fees to Royco Hotels, payment of dividends on Series A and Series B preferred stock, and Series C convertible preferred stock, and estimated debt service for the remainder of 2012 of $10.8 million, assuming the refinancing of the $29.0 million December 2012 maturity on similar terms. Our long-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of the costs of renovations and other non-recurring capital expenditures that need to be made periodically with respect to hotel properties, and $62.3 million of scheduled debt repayments. On or before December 31, 2012 the Company is required to make a $7 million principal prepayment to General Electric Capital Corporation. This debt is expected to be funded with proceeds on refinancing the 32 hotels secured by Greenwich Capital.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, CONTINUED:

 

We have budgeted to increase our spending on capital improvements from $5 million in 2011 to $7 million on our existing hotels during 2012. The increase in capital expenditures is a result of complying with brand mandated improvements and initiating projects that we believe will generate a return on investment as we enter a period of recovery in the lodging sector. We will seek to satisfy these long-term liquidity requirements through the various sources of capital identified above, including the recently issued Series C convertible preferred stock and net proceeds on sales of non performing hotels.

In an effort to meet our short-term liquidity needs, and because of the difficulty encountered in obtaining sources of borrowing to meet such needs, on November 10, 2011 the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors approved a proposal for the purchase by four of the Company directors, Messrs. Borgmann, Dayton, Latham, and Walters (the “Purchasing Directors”), of the Amended and Restated Master Promissory Note maturing November 30, 2011 from Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Wells Fargo Note”) for the balance owed of principal and interest in the amount of $2.1 million.

The Purchasing Directors purchased the Wells Fargo Note from Wells Fargo on November 21, 2011. The Wells Fargo Note was secured by two of the Company’s hotels and the Purchasing Directors released one of the hotels from security for the Wells Fargo Note so that it could be used as security by the Company to obtain a $5.0 million line of credit with Elkhorn Valley Bank. Each of the Purchasing Directors also separately guaranteed $0.75 million of the line of credit (the “Elkhorn Line of Credit”).

We completed a private offering of 3.0 million shares of Series C convertible preferred stock in February 2012. Net proceeds of the offering, less expenses, were approximately $28.6 million. $7.1 million of the net proceeds were used to repay the Wells Fargo Note held by the Purchasing Directors and to repay the Elkhorn Line of Credit, from which the Purchasing Directors were released from their personal guaranties. Each of the Purchasing Directors received approximately $13,000 in interest payments on the Wells Fargo Note and an approximate $4,000 fee for their personal guarantee of the Elkhorn Line of Credit. The remaining net proceeds from the offering will be used to acquire upper midscale and upscale hotels. In addition, management has identified non-core assets in our portfolio to be liquidated over a one to ten year period.

We project that proceeds from anticipated property sales during 2012, net of expenses and debt repayment, of $2.3 million will be available for the Company’s cash needs. We project that our operating cash flow, anticipated excess proceeds from refinancing the Greenwich Capital debt, revolving credit facility and the sources identified above will be sufficient to satisfy all of our liquidity and other capital needs for 2012.

The Company did not declare a common stock dividend for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The Company will monitor requirements to maintain its REIT status and will routinely evaluate the dividend policy. The Company intends to continue to meet its dividend requirements to retain its REIT status.

Financing

On March 29, 2011, we entered into an equity distribution agreement with JMP Securities LLC (“JMP”) pursuant to which we may offer and sell up to 2.0 million shares of common stock from time to time through JMP. Sales of shares of the Company common stock, if any, under the agreement may be made in negotiated transactions or other transactions that are deemed to be “at the market” offerings, including sales made directly on the Nasdaq Global Market or sales made to or through a market maker other than on an exchange. The common stock will be sold pursuant to our registration statement on Form S-3 (333-170756). During the three months ended March 31, 2012 no shares were issued. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, we sold (with settlement in April 2011), through JMP, as our agent, an aggregate of 26,725 shares of common stock pursuant to ordinary brokers’ transactions on the Nasdaq Global Market. Gross proceeds were $43,685.23, commissions to agent were $2,184.26 and net proceeds to us (before expenses) were $41,500.97.

At March 31, 2012, the Company had long-term debt of $120.6 million associated with assets held for use, consisting of notes and mortgages payable, with a weighted average term to maturity of 3.4 years and a weighted average interest rate of 6.4%. The weighted average fixed rate was 6.9%, and the weighted average variable rate was 4.0%. Debt held on properties in continuing operations is classified as held for use. Debt is classified as held for sale if the properties collateralizing it are included in discontinued operations. Debt associated with assets held for sale is classified as a short-term liability due within the next year irrespective of whether the notes and mortgages evidencing such debt mature within the next year. Aggregate annual principal payments on debt associated with assets held for use for the remainder of 2012 and thereafter, and debt associated with assets held for sale, are as follows (in thousands):

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, CONTINUED:

 

At March 31, 2012, the Company had $62.3 million of principal due in 2012. Of this amount, $40.9 million of the principal due is associated with either assets held for use or assets held for sale, and matures in 2012 pursuant to the notes and mortgages evidencing such debt. The remaining $21.4 million is associated with assets held for sale and is not contractually due in 2012 unless the related assets are sold. The maturities comprising the $40.9 million consist of:

 

   

a $29.0 million balance on the loan with Greenwich Capital;

 

   

a $0.8 million note payable to First National Bank of Omaha;

 

   

a $7.0 million principal prepayment required on our credit facilities with General Electric Capital Corporation;

 

   

a $1.1 million balance on a note payable to General Electric Capital Corporation; and

 

   

approximately $3.0 million of principal amortization on mortgage loans.

The $29.0 million balance of the loan with Greenwich Capital matures in December 2012. The loan is secured by 32 hotels. The Company intends to break up the portfolio into several tranches and secure financing with several local and / or regional banks, or it may consider other financing options. The process to identify lenders began in March 2012.

The $0.8 million note payable to First National Bank of Omaha was paid in full on April 20, 2012 with a portion of the proceeds from the sale of a Super 8 in El Dorado, Kansas (49 rooms).

On March 29, 2012, our credit facilities with General Electric Capital Corporation were amended to, among other things, require a principal prepayment of $7 million on or before December 31, 2012. This debt is expected to be funded from the proceeds of refinancing our hotels secured by Greenwich Capital.

The $1.1 million note payable to General Electric Capital Corporation is expected to be paid with available funds at the end of 2012.

The key financial covenants for certain of our loan agreements and compliance calculations as of March 31, 2012 are discussed below (each such covenant is calculated pursuant to the applicable loan agreement). As of March 31, 2012, we believe we were in compliance with the financial covenants. As a result, we believe we are not in default of any of our loans. However, the General Electric Capital Corporation (“GE”) before dividend consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio (“FCCR”) covenant allows EBITDA to be adjusted for nonrecurring expenses. As of March 31, 2012 the Company believes that all adjustments included in the covenant calculation are appropriate. If all adjustments are not accepted by GE, the Company will not have met its before dividend FCCR covenant. The cure provisions permit the Company to make a prepayment within 30 days after notice from the lender in an amount sufficient that would result in compliance with the before dividend FCCR for the period.

If a cure right is exercised, the Company estimates the debt prepayment amount would range from $0 to $1.5 million. If necessary to prepay debt in this range, the Company has the intention and ability to make such repayment within 30 days notice from GE.

The Great Western Bank credit facilities also require maintenance of consolidated and loan-specific loan to value ratios that do not exceed 70%, tested annually commencing on December 31, 2012, and that we not pay dividends in excess of 75% of our funds from operations per year. The consolidated and loan-specific debt service coverage ratios for the credit facilities remain at 0.9 to 1, tested quarterly, through June 29, 2012. The consolidated debt service coverage ratio increases to 1.05 to 1, tested quarterly, from June 30, 2012 through the maturity of the credit facilities. The loan-specific debt service coverage ratio increases to 1.05 to 1, tested quarterly, from June 30, 2012 through December 30, 2012 and 1.20 to 1, tested quarterly, from December 31, 2012 through the maturity of the credit facilities.

The credit facilities with Great Western Bank currently consist of a $12.5 million revolving credit facility and term loans of $14 million, $10 million and $7.5 million. All loans under the credit facilities mature on June 30, 2013. The interest rate on the revolving credit portion of the credit facilities is 5.95% and the interest rate on the term loan portion of the credit facilities is 6.00%.

The credit facilities provide for $12.5 million of availability under the revolving credit facility through June 30, 2012, after which the loans available to us through the revolving credit facility and term loans may not exceed the lesser of (a) an amount equal to 70% of the total appraised value of the hotels securing the credit facilities and (b) an amount that would result in a loan-specific debt service coverage ratio of less than 1.05 to 1 from July 1, 2012 through December 30, 2012 and 1.20 to 1 from December 31, 2012 through the maturity of the credit facilities. If the availability of the credit facilities as of March 31, 2012 was subject to the post-June 30, 2011 borrowing base formula, the credit facilities would have remained fully available to the Company. The credit facilities require a $500,000 reduction in the availability of the revolving credit facility by September 30, 2012 and an additional $500,000 reduction by December 31, 2012.

On March 29, 2012, our credit facilities with General Electric Capital Corporation (“GE”) were amended to replace existing financial covenant requirements with new financial covenant requirements. The new financial covenants require that, through the term of the loans, we maintain: (a) a minimum before dividend fixed charge coverage ratio (FCCR) with respect to our GE-encumbered properties (based on a rolling 12-month period) of 0.85:1 as of March 31, 2012, which requirement increases quarterly thereafter to 1.30:1 as of December 31, 2015; (b) a maximum loan to value ratio with respect to our GE-encumbered properties of 100% as of March 31, 2012, which requirement decreases quarterly thereafter to 60% as of December 31, 2015; (c) a minimum before dividend consolidated FCCR (based on a rolling 12-month period) of 0.95:1 as of March 31, 2012, which requirement increases quarterly thereafter to 1.30:1 as of December 31, 2014; and (d) a minimum after dividend consolidated FCCR (based on a rolling 12-month period) of 0.75:1 as of March 31, 2012, which requirement increases quarterly thereafter to 1.00:1 as of December 31, 2013.

The GE amendment, among other things, also: (a) shortens the maturity date of the loans secured by the Masters Inn hotels and Savannah Suites hotels to December 31, 2014; (b) requires a principal prepayment of $7 million on or before December 31, 2012; (c) provides that the previous increases to the interest rates on the loans will remain in effect and will not be reduced in the future if we achieve a particular FCCR; (d) adds cross-default provisions with our other material debt and most favored lender provisions; and (e) implements restrictions on the prepayment of other debt.

In May 2008, we converted the interest rates on certain of our GE loans to fixed rates. Because interest rates have since decreased, there are yield maintenance costs associated with prepayments of those loans. The yield maintenance cost associated with the most recent Masters Inn sale was 16.5% of the amount prepaid. The GE amendment implements fixed prepayment fees on the loans secured by the Masters Inn hotels and Savannah Suites hotels (in lieu of the yield maintenance costs) which start at 2.5% of the amount prepaid in 2012 and increase over time up to 10% of the amount prepaid.

If we fail to pay our indebtedness when due, fail to comply with covenants or otherwise default on our loans, unless waived, we could incur higher interest rates during the period of such loan defaults, be required to immediately pay our indebtedness and ultimately lose our hotels through lender foreclosure if we are unable to obtain alternative sources of financing with acceptable terms. Our Great Western Bank and GE credit facilities contain cross-default provisions which would allow Great Western Bank and GE to declare a default and accelerate our indebtedness to them if we default on our other loans, and such default would permit that lender to accelerate our indebtedness under any such loan. We believe we are not in default of any of our loans. However, the General Electric Capital Corporation (“GE”) before dividend consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio (“FCCR”) covenant allows EBITDA to be adjusted for nonrecurring expenses. As of March 31, 2012 the Company believes that all adjustments included in the covenant calculation are appropriate. If all adjustments are not accepted by GE, the Company will not have met its before dividend FCCR covenant. The cure provisions permit the Company to make a prepayment within 30 days after notice from the lender in an amount sufficient that would result in compliance with the before dividend FCCR for the period.

If a cure right is exercised, the Company estimates the debt prepayment amount would range from $0 to $1.5 million. If necessary to prepay debt in this range, the Company has the intention and ability to make such repayment within 30 days notice from GE.

On January 18, 2012, the Company sold a Super 8 in Fayetteville, Arkansas (83 rooms) for approximately $1.56 million with a $0.4 million gain. The proceeds were used primarily to reduce a term loan with Great Western Bank.

In two closings on February 1, 2012 and February 15, 2012, the Company completed the sale to Real Estate Strategies, L.P. of 3,000,000 shares of Series C convertible preferred stock and warrants to purchase 30,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.20 per common share. Net proceeds after issuance cost were $28.6 million. The Company agreed to use $20 million of net proceeds to pursue hospitality acquisitions which are consistent with the investment strategy of the Company Board, as well as an additional $5 million within a reasonable period.

On February 2, 2012, we paid $11.8 million on the Great Western Bank revolving line of credit, bringing the balance to zero. The available capacity is expected to be used in part to fund the $20 million obligation for hotel investment. The payment was funded with a portion of the net proceeds from the Series C convertible preferred stock.

On February 3, 2012, the Company paid in full the $5.0 million balance on the revolving credit facility with Elkhorn Valley Bank, with a portion of the net proceeds from the sale of the Series C convertible preferred stock.

On February 16, 2012, the Company paid in full the $2.1 million note payable to Fredericksburg North Investors, LLC, with a portion of the net proceeds from the sale of the Series C convertible preferred stock.

On February 21, 2012, the Company amended its credit facilities with Great Western Bank to extend the maturity date of all loans to June 30, 2013.

On March 1, 2012, the Company amended its credit facility with First National Bank of Omaha to extend the maturity date to May 1, 2012. This debt was paid in full on April 20, 2012.

On March 27, 2012, the Company sold a Super 8 in Muscatine, Iowa (63 rooms) for approximately $1.3 million. The proceeds were used primarily to reduce a term loan with Great Western Bank, with the remaining amount used to reduce the revolving line of credit with Great Western Bank.

On March 27, 2012, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire the 100 room Hilton Garden Inn in Solomons Island, Maryland for $11.5 million. The purchase will be funded with a portion of the net proceeds from the sale of the Series C convertible preferred stock.

On March 29, 2012, the Company amended its credit facilities with General Electric Capital Corporation. These changes were reflected in the notes to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

Redemption of Noncontrolling Preferred Operating Partnership Units

At March 31, 2012, 11,424 of SLP’s preferred operating partnership units (“Preferred OP Units”) were outstanding. The redemption value for the Preferred OP Units is $0.1 million for March 31, 2012. Each limited partner of SLP may, subject to certain limitations, require that SLP redeem all or a portion of his or her Preferred OP Units, at any time after a specified period following the date the units were acquired, by delivering a redemption notice to SLP. The Preferred OP Units are convertible by the holders into Common operating units (“Common OP Units”) on a one-for-one basis or, pursuant to an extension agreement by the holders, may be redeemed for cash at the option of the holder at $10 per unit on or after October 24, 2012.

Supertel offered to each of the Preferred OP Unit holders the option to extend until October 24, 2012 their right to have units redeemed at $10 per unit. Holders of 11,424 units elected to extend at a redemption value of $114,240.

There were no Preferred OP Units redeemed during the three months ending March 31, 2012.

The column titled Less than 1 Year represents payments due for the balance of 2012. Long-term debt includes debt on properties classified in continuing operations. The debt related to properties held for sale (and expected to be sold in the next 12 months, with the respective debt paid) of $25.9 million is not included in the table above.

We have various standing or renewable contracts with vendors. These contracts are all cancelable with immaterial or no cancellation penalties. Contract terms are generally one year or less. The land leases reflected in the table above represent continuing operations. In addition, the Company has two land leases associated with properties in discontinued operations. These two properties are expected to be sold in the next 12 months. The annual lease payments of $105,000 are not included in the table above. We also have management agreements with HMA, Strand, Kinseth and HLC Hotels, providing for the management and operation of the hotels.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements are utilized to determine the value of certain liabilities, to perform impairment assessments, and for disclosure purposes. In February 2012 the Company issued financial instruments with features that were determined to be derivative liabilities, and as a result must be measured at fair value on a recurring basis under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) 820-10 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures – Overall. In addition we apply the fair value provisions of ASC 820-10-35 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures – Overall – Subsequent Measurement, for our nonfinancial assets which include our held for sale hotels, and the disclosure of the fair value of our debt.

The Company’s financial instruments, the derivative liabilities, and the non financial assets, our held for sale hotels, are measured using inputs from level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).

Level 3 non- financial asset valuations use unobservable inputs that reflect our assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. We develop these inputs based on the best information available, including our own data. Financial asset and liability valuation inputs include unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the liability; this includes pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

Non financial assets

During the three months ending March 31, 2012, Level 3 inputs were used to determine non-cash impairment losses of $1.8 million on ten held for sale hotels and recovery of previously recorded impairment for which fair value exceeded management’s previous estimates in the amount of $0.4 million on two hotels that were reclassified into held for use. There was no impairment on held for use hotels.

During the three months ending March 31, 2011, Level 3 inputs were used to determine non-cash impairment losses of $0.1 million on five hotels held for sale, $0.2 million on three hotels subsequently sold and $0.2 million on one hotel placed that was subsequently placed back in held for use. The Company also recorded a recovery of $25,000 of previously recorded impairment loss on one hotel at the time of sale. There was no impairment on held for use hotels.

In accordance with ASC 360-10-36 Property Plant and Equipment – Overall – Subsequent Measurements, the Company determines the fair value of an asset held for sale based on the estimated selling price less estimated selling costs. We engage independent real estate brokers to assist us in determining the estimated selling price using a market approach. The estimated selling costs are based on our experience with similar asset sales.

Financial instruments

As of March 31, 2012, the fair value of the derivative liabilities in connection with the February 2012 issuance was determined by the Monte Carlo simulation method. The Monte Carlo simulation method is a generally accepted statistical method used to generate a defined number of stock price paths in order to develop a reasonable estimate of the range of future expected stock prices of the Company and its peer group and minimizes standard error.

The fair value of the Company’s financial liabilities carried at fair value and measured on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2012 are as follows (in thousands):

To maintain our REIT tax status, we generally must distribute at least 90% of our taxable income to our shareholders annually. In addition, we are subject to a 4% non-deductible excise tax if the actual amount distributed to shareholders in a calendar year is less than a minimum amount specified under the federal income tax laws. We have a general dividend policy of paying out approximately 100% of annual REIT taxable income. The actual amount of any future dividends will be determined by the Board of Directors based on our actual results of operations, economic conditions, capital expenditure requirements and other factors that the Board of Directors deems relevant.

Off Balance Sheet Financing Transactions

We have not entered into any off balance sheet financing transactions.

Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure that is not calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). We calculate Adjusted EBITDA by adding back to net earnings (loss) available to common shareholders certain non-operating expenses and non-cash charges which are based on historical cost accounting and we believe may be of limited significance in evaluating current performance. We believe these adjustments can help eliminate the accounting effects of depreciation and amortization and financing decisions and facilitate comparisons of core operating profitability between periods, even though Adjusted EBITDA also does not represent an amount that accrues directly to common shareholders. In calculating Adjusted EBITDA, we also add back preferred stock dividends and noncontrolling interests, which are cash charges.

Adjusted EBITDA doesn’t represent cash generated from operating activities determined by GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, cash flow from operations or any other operating performance measure prescribed by GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of our liquidity, nor is Adjusted EBITDA indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions. Neither does the measurement reflect cash expenditures for long-term assets and other items that have been and will be incurred. Adjusted EBITDA may include funds that may not be available for management’s discretionary use due to functional requirements to conserve funds for capital expenditures, property acquisitions, and other commitments and uncertainties. To compensate for this, management considers the impact of these excluded items to the extent they are material to operating decisions or the evaluation of our operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Funds from Operations

The Company’s funds from operations (“FFO”) for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $(1.5) million, representing a decrease of $0.5 million from FFO reported for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The Company’s Adjusted FFO for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $(0.3) million, which is an increase of $0.7 million over the $(1.0) million reported at March 31, 2011. The weighted average number of shares outstanding for the calculation of FFO basic and diluted were 23,070,435 and 22,917,509 for the three months ending March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, CONTINUED:

 

FFO and Adjusted FFO (“AFFO”) are non-GAAP financial measures. We consider FFO and AFFO to be market accepted measures of an equity REIT’s operating performance, which are necessary, along with net earnings (loss), for an understanding of our operating results. FFO, as defined under the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT) standards, consists of net income computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of real estate assets, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets. We believe our method of calculating FFO complies with the NAREIT definition. Adjusted FFO excludes the unrealized loss on derivative liabilities, which is a non-cash charge against income and which does not represent results from our core operations. FFO and AFFO do not represent amounts available for management’s discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations, or other commitments and uncertainties. FFO and AFFO should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of our liquidity, nor are they indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends or make distributions. All REITs do not calculate FFO and AFFO in the same manner; therefore, our calculation may not be the same as the calculation of FFO and AFFO for similar REITs.

We use FFO and AFFO as performance measures to facilitate a periodic evaluation of our operating results relative to those of our peers. We consider FFO and AFFO useful additional measures of performance for an equity REIT because they facilitate an understanding of the operating performance of our properties without giving effect to real estate depreciation and amortization, which assume that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, we believe that FFO and AFFO provide a meaningful indication of our performance.

Net Operating Income

NOI is one of the performance indicators the Company uses to assess and measure operating results. The Company believes that NOI is a useful additional measure of operating performance of its hotels because it provides a measure of core operations that is unaffected by depreciation, amortization, financing and general and administrative expense. NOI is also an important performance measure used to determine the amount of the management fees paid by the Company to the operators of its hotels.

NOI is a non-GAAP measure, and is not necessarily indicative of available earnings and should not be considered an alternative to Earnings Before Net Gain (Loss) on Dispositions of Assets, Other Income, Interest Expense and Income Taxes. NOI is reconciled to Earnings Before Net Gain (Loss) on Dispositions of Assets, Other Income, Interest Expense and Income Taxes as follows (in thousands):

Property Operating Income

POI is a non-GAAP financial measure, and should not be considered as an alternative to loss from continuing operations or loss from discontinued operations, net of tax. The Company believes that the presentation of hotel property operating results (POI) is helpful to investors, and represents a more useful description of its core operations, as it better communicates the comparability of its hotels’ operating results for all of the company’s hotel properties.
