Comparable system-wide RevPAR for the three months ended September 30, 2020 declined 14.7% over the same period in 2019 to $46.75, driven by a 13.7% decline in Average Daily Rate ("ADR") and a 100 basis point decrease in occupancy to 79.8%. Comparable system-wide RevPAR year over year percentage change improved each month during the third quarter. Comparable system-wide RevPAR for the first nine months of 2020 declined 16.9% to $43.06.

Hotel Operating Margin for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was 47.3% compared to 53.8% in the same period in 2019 due a decrease in RevPAR caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Hotel operating expenses during the third quarter of 2020 declined by 2.5% from the same period in 2019, or approximately 3.5% on a comparable basis. Hotel Operating Margin for the first nine months of 2020 was 45.1% compared to 52.9% in the same period of 2019, driven by a decrease in RevPAR due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was $31.5 million compared to net income of $53.2 million for the same period in 2019. The decrease in net income was due to a decline in Comparable system-wide RevPAR, partially offset by an income tax benefit, lower net interest expense, and lower hotel operating expenses. Net income for the first nine months of 2020 was $30.6 million, compared to net income of $141.3 million for the same period in 2019.

Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was $112.7 million, a decline of 27.9% compared to the same period in 2019. The decline in Adjusted EBITDA was due to a decline in Comparable system-wide RevPAR. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter excludes non-cash equity-based compensation expense of $1.7 million, $1.3 million in loss on disposal of assets and $0.8 million in other expenses. Adjusted EBITDA for the first nine months of 2020 was $284.8 million compared to $426.3 million in the same period of 2019.

Adjusted FFO for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was $70.7 million, or $0.40 per diluted Paired Share, compared to $101.5 million, or $0.54 per diluted Paired Share in the same period in 2019. The decrease in Adjusted FFO per diluted Paired Share was due to a decline in Comparable system-wide RevPAR, partially offset by an income tax benefit, lower net interest expense and a reduction in Paired Shares outstanding. Adjusted FFO for the first nine months of 2020 was $156.4 million, or $0.88 per diluted Paired Share, compared to $269.8 million, or $1.43 per diluted Paired Share, for the same period in 2019. Adjusted FFO, a non-GAAP measure, represents funds from operations, as adjusted, attributable to the consolidated enterprise, whose representative equity security is a Paired Share. A Paired Share entitles its holder to participate in 100% of the common equity and earnings of both Extended Stay America, Inc. and ESH Hospitality, Inc.

Adjusted Paired Share Income for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was $33.1 million, or $0.19 per diluted Paired Share, compared to $62.6 million in Adjusted Paired Share Income, or $0.33 per diluted Paired Share, for the same period in 2019. The decrease in Adjusted Paired Share Income per diluted Paired Share was due to the decline in Comparable System-wide RevPAR, partially offset an income tax benefit, lower net interest expense and a reduction in Paired Shares outstanding. Adjusted Paired Share Income for the first nine months of 2020 was $38.6 million, or $0.22 per diluted Paired Share, compared to $153.3 million, or $0.81 per diluted Paired Share, in the same period of 2019. Adjusted Paired Share Income, a non-GAAP measure, represents net income, as adjusted, attributable to the consolidated enterprise, whose representative equity security is a Paired Share.

Inc. ("STR"), an independent third-party service, which collects and compiles the data used to calculate RevPAR Index. We select the competing hotels included in the RevPAR Index calculation subject to STR's guidelines. The competing hotels included in STR guidelines will generally include certain hotels that are not considered part of the extended stay lodging segment of the hospitality industry and, instead, fall within the category of short-term stay hotels. STR does not endorse the Company, or any other company, and STR data should not be viewed as investment advice or as a recommendation to take a particular course of action.

(1) The 2020 Outlook with respect to income tax applies to absolute income tax benefit only. Due to (1) certain provisions of the CARES Act related to income tax relief, (2) greater variability in forecasted results within the current year than in prior years and (3) a wider than usual range between the forecasted financial results of ESA, a taxable C-Corp, and ESH REIT, a non-taxable real estate investment trust (in each case due to the volatility in our performance caused by the COVID-19 pandemic), the 2020 Outlook with respect to income tax does not apply to, or provide an outlook with respect to, the Company's effective tax rate or range of effective tax rates for the year ended December 31, 2020.
(2) In light of the growth of our franchise business and in order to enhance comparability, effective January 1, 2020, the Company adopted the practice of other lodging companies with franchise businesses of excluding system services (profit) loss, net from Adjusted EBITDA; no adjustments have been made to prior period results. System services loss, net for the year ended December 31, 2019, was $2.2 million.
(3) Includes loss on disposal of assets and non-operating (income) expense, including foreign currency transaction costs.
