(2) In Q1 2024, Park recognized a $5 million benefit resulting from grant money received from the Massachusetts Growth Capital Corporation's Hotel & Motel Relief Grant Program, and Park's Hawaii hotels benefited from a state unemployment tax refund of approximately $4 million. Excluding these items, Comparable Hotel Adjusted EBITDA would have increased 40 bps compared to the prior year.
   

Thomas J. Baltimore, Jr., Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "I am incredibly pleased with our first quarter results as demand trends accelerated across all segments, fueled by the strategic investments we have made in Hawaii, Key West and Orlando that we believe will continue to drive performance in 2024 and beyond. Sector-leading Comparable RevPAR increased nearly 8% compared to the first quarter of 2023, exceeding overall upper upscale hotel performance by nearly 500 basis points as reported by Smith Travel Research. This is exceptionally strong performance given a tough year-over-year comparison, with Comparable RevPAR for the first quarter of 2023 increasing 28% over the first quarter of 2022. Performance at our resort and urban hotels continues to accelerate, each with Comparable RevPAR growth of 8% compared to the first quarter of 2023. Combined RevPAR at our Hawaii hotels increased nearly 7% compared to the first quarter of 2023 due to an increase in both group and transient demand, primarily at the Hilton Hawaiian Village resort where RevPAR increased nearly 8%. Following transformative renovation projects in 2023, the Casa Marina resort in Key West experienced RevPAR gains in excess of 34% driven by a 24% increase in rate compared to the first quarter of 2023, while RevPAR at the Bonnet Creek Orlando complex increased nearly 9%, led by an increase in RevPAR at the Signia Bonnet Creek hotel of over 16%. Group demand continues to improve with 2024 Comparable Group Revenue Pace up nearly 11% compared to the same time last year, driven by accelerated business demand, an increase in citywide events and strong convention calendars at our New York, New Orleans and Chicago hotels.

With current liquidity of over $1.3 billion, we remain laser-focused on executing on our strategic objectives in 2024 to create long-term shareholder value, including reshaping our portfolio through investing in value-enhancing ROI projects, disposing of non-core assets and strengthening our balance sheet by extending maturities.”

Park continued to see improvements in demand as business travel accelerated and group demand continued to witness ongoing strength at both its urban and resort hotels, increasing Comparable group revenues for the first quarter of 2024 by over 15% year-over-year. Comparable RevPAR growth for the first quarter was driven by increases in Comparable RevPAR at both its resort and urban hotels of 8% year-over-year. The growth in Comparable RevPAR at Park's urban portfolio resulted from the continued acceleration of group business in New York, New Orleans and Chicago where RevPAR at the New York Hilton Midtown and the Hilton New Orleans Riverside increased over 11% and 13%, respectively, while combined RevPAR at its Chicago hotels increased nearly 11% led by an increase in RevPAR at the Hilton Chicago of nearly 18%. At Park's resort hotels, group demand at its Hawaii hotels continued to improve, increasing combined RevPAR by nearly 7% versus prior year, which was primarily driven by the Hilton Hawaiian Village resort where group rooms revenue increased nearly 41% versus prior year, while the Bonnet Creek Orlando complex saw the highest combined group rooms revenue quarter in the property's history, increasing nearly 38% versus prior year.

During the first quarter of 2024, projected Comparable group revenues for 2024 increased by nearly $56 million or approximately 240,000 Comparable group room nights. At the end of March 2024, Comparable Group Revenue Pace and room night bookings for 2024 increased approximately 11% and 6% as compared to what 2023 group bookings were at the end of March 2023, respectively, with 2024 average Comparable group rates projected to exceed 2023 average group rates by 4% for the same time period.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

Park's current liquidity is over $1.3 billion, including approximately $950 million of available capacity under the Company's revolving credit facility ("Revolver"). As of March 31, 2024, Park's Comparable Net Debt was approximately $3.5 billion, which excludes the $725 million non-recourse CMBS Loan ("SF Mortgage Loan") secured by 1,921-room Hilton San Francisco Union Square and 1,024-room Parc 55 San Francisco – a Hilton Hotel (collectively, the "Hilton San Francisco Hotels").

As of March 31, 2024, the weighted average maturity of Park's consolidated debt, excluding the SF Mortgage Loan, is 3.2 years.

Park had the following debt outstanding as of March 31, 2024:

(unaudited, dollars in millions)

____________________________

(1) The loan matures in August 2042 but became callable by the lender in August 2022 with six months of notice. As of March 31, 2024, Park had not received notice from the lender.
(2) Calculated on a weighted average basis.
(3) Park has approximately $950 million of available capacity under the Revolver.
(4) SOFR includes a credit spread adjustment of 0.1%.
(5) Excludes $164 million of Park’s share of debt of its unconsolidated joint ventures.
(6) Excludes the SF Mortgage Loan, which is included in debt associated with hotels in receivership in Park's consolidated balance sheets. In June 2023, Park ceased making debt service payments toward the non-recourse SF Mortgage Loan, and Park received a notice of default. The stated rate on the loan is 4.11%, however, beginning June 1, 2023, the default interest rate on the loan is 7.11%. Additionally, beginning June 1, 2023, the loan accrues a monthly late payment administrative fee of 3% of the monthly amount due. In October 2023, the Hilton San Francisco Hotels were placed into court-ordered receivership, and thus, Park has no further economic interest in the operations of the hotels.
   

Capital Investments

Park expects to incur approximately $260 million to $280 million in capital improvement costs during 2024, of which $70 million was spent during the first quarter of 2024. Key upcoming renovations and return on investment projects include:

Dividends

Park declared a first quarter 2024 cash dividend of $0.25 per share to stockholders of record as of March 29, 2024. The first quarter 2024 cash dividend was paid on April 15, 2024.

On April 19, 2024, Park declared a second quarter 2024 cash dividend of $0.25 per share to be paid on July 15, 2024 to stockholders of record as of June 28, 2024. The declared dividends translate to an annualized yield of 6% based on recent trading levels. Park is currently targeting a pay-out ratio in the range of 65% to 70% of Adjusted FFO per share for the full year, which based on Park's current guidance, translates into an incremental top-off dividend to be declared during the fourth quarter of 2024.

Park's outlook is based in part on the following assumptions:

  • Comparable RevPAR for the second quarter of 2024 is expected to be between $197 and $201, representing year-over-year growth of 3% to 5%;
  • The mortgage loan secured by the Hilton Denver City Center is not called by the lender during 2024;
  • Includes 50 bps of RevPAR and $9 million of Hotel Adjusted EBITDA disruption from renovations at certain of Park's hotels, of which $8 million is associated with renovations at Park's Hawaii hotels;
  • Adjusted FFO excludes $55 million of default interest and late payment administrative fees associated with default of the SF Mortgage Loan for full-year 2024, which began in June 2023 and is required to be recognized in interest expense until legal title to the Hilton San Francisco Hotels are transferred;
  • Fully diluted weighted average shares for the full-year 2024 of 211 million; and
  • Park's Comparable portfolio as of April 30, 2024 and does not take into account potential future acquisitions, dispositions or any financing transactions, which could result in a material change to Park’s outlook.

Park's full-year 2024 outlook is based on a number of factors, many of which are outside the Company's control, including uncertainty surrounding macro-economic factors, such as inflation, changes in interest rates, supply chain disruptions and the possibility of an economic recession or slowdown, as well as the assumptions set forth above, all of which are subject to change.

PARK HOTELS & RESORTS INC. DEFINITIONS
     
Comparable
  The Company presents certain data for its consolidated hotels on a Comparable basis as supplemental information for investors: Comparable Hotel Revenues, Comparable RevPAR, Comparable Occupancy, Comparable ADR, Comparable Hotel Adjusted EBITDA and Comparable Hotel Adjusted EBITDA Margin. The Company presents Comparable hotel results to help the Company and its investors evaluate the ongoing operating performance of its hotels. The Company’s Comparable metrics include results from hotels that were active and operating in Park's portfolio since January 1st of the previous year and property acquisitions as though such acquisitions occurred on the earliest period presented. Additionally, Comparable metrics exclude results from property dispositions that have occurred through April 30, 2024 and the Hilton San Francisco Hotels, which were placed into receivership at the end of October 2023.
     
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Hotel Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA margin
  Earnings before interest expense, taxes and depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), presented herein, reflects net income (loss) excluding depreciation and amortization, interest income, interest expense, income taxes and interest expense, income tax and depreciation and amortization included in equity in earnings from investments in affiliates.Adjusted EBITDA, presented herein, is calculated as EBITDA, as previously defined, further adjusted to exclude the following items that are not reflective of Park's ongoing operating performance or incurred in the normal course of business, and thus, excluded from management's analysis in making day-to-day operating decisions and evaluations of Park's operating performance against other companies within its industry:
   
  • Gains or losses on sales of assets for both consolidated and unconsolidated investments;
  • Costs associated with hotel acquisitions or dispositions expensed during the period;
  • Severance expense;
  • Share-based compensation expense;
  • Impairment losses and casualty gains or losses; and
  • Other items that management believes are not representative of the Company’s current or future operating performance.
  Hotel Adjusted EBITDA measures hotel-level results before debt service, depreciation and corporate expenses of the Company’s consolidated hotels, which excludes hotels owned by unconsolidated affiliates, and is a key measure of the Company’s profitability. The Company presents Hotel Adjusted EBITDA to help the Company and its investors evaluate the ongoing operating performance of the Company’s consolidated hotels.Hotel Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as Hotel Adjusted EBITDA divided by total hotel revenue.EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Hotel Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA margin are not recognized terms under United States (“U.S.”) GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) or other measures of financial performance or liquidity derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, the Company’s definitions of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Hotel Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA margin may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.The Company believes that EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Hotel Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA margin provide useful information to investors about the Company and its financial condition and results of operations for the following reasons: (i) EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Hotel Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA margin are among the measures used by the Company’s management team to make day-to-day operating decisions and evaluate its operating performance between periods and between REITs by removing the effect of its capital structure (primarily interest expense) and asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) from its operating results; and (ii) EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Hotel Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA margin are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties as a common performance measure to compare results or estimate valuations across companies in the industry.EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Hotel Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA margin have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered either in isolation or as a substitute for net income (loss) or other methods of analyzing the Company’s operating performance and results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Because of these limitations, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as discretionary cash available to the Company to reinvest in the growth of its business or as measures of cash that will be available to the Company to meet its obligations. Further, the Company does not use or present EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Hotel Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA margin as measures of liquidity or cash flows.
     
Nareit FFO attributable to stockholders, Adjusted FFO attributable to stockholders, Nareit FFO per share – diluted and Adjusted FFO per share – diluted
  Nareit FFO attributable to stockholders and Nareit FFO per diluted share (defined as set forth below) are presented herein as non-GAAP measures of the Company’s performance. The Company calculates funds from (used in) operations (“FFO”) attributable to stockholders for a given operating period in accordance with standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”), as net income (loss) attributable to stockholders (calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP), excluding depreciation and amortization, gains or losses on sales of assets, impairment, and the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles, plus adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures are calculated to reflect the Company’s pro rata share of the FFO of those entities on the same basis. As noted by Nareit in its December 2018 “Nareit Funds from Operations White Paper – 2018 Restatement,” since real estate values historically have risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors have considered presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. For these reasons, Nareit adopted the FFO metric in order to promote an industry-wide measure of REIT operating performance. The Company believes Nareit FFO provides useful information to investors regarding its operating performance and can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between REITs. The Company’s presentation may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the terms in accordance with the current Nareit definition, or that interpret the current Nareit definition differently. The Company calculates Nareit FFO per diluted share as Nareit FFO divided by the number of fully diluted shares outstanding during a given operating period.The Company also presents Adjusted FFO attributable to stockholders and Adjusted FFO per diluted share when evaluating its performance because management believes that the exclusion of certain additional items described below provides useful supplemental information to investors regarding the Company’s ongoing operating performance. Management historically has made the adjustments detailed below in evaluating its performance and in its annual budget process. Management believes that the presentation of Adjusted FFO provides useful supplemental information that is beneficial to an investor’s complete understanding of operating performance. The Company adjusts Nareit FFO attributable to stockholders for the following items, which may occur in any period, and refers to this measure as Adjusted FFO attributable to stockholders:
   
  • Costs associated with hotel acquisitions or dispositions expensed during the period;
  • Severance expense;
  • Share-based compensation expense;
  • Casualty gains or losses; and
  • Other items that management believes are not representative of the Company’s current or future operating performance.
     
Net Debt
  Net Debt, presented herein, is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Company uses to evaluate its financial leverage. Net Debt is calculated as (i) debt excluding unamortized deferred financing costs; and (ii) the Company’s share of investments in affiliate debt, excluding unamortized deferred financing costs; reduced by (a) cash and cash equivalents; and (b) restricted cash and cash equivalents. Net Debt also excludes Debt associated with hotels in receivership.The Company believes Net Debt provides useful information about its indebtedness to investors as it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties to compare the indebtedness of companies. Net Debt should not be considered as a substitute to debt presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Net Debt may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of other companies.
     
Occupancy
  Occupancy represents the total number of room nights sold divided by the total number of room nights available at a hotel or group of hotels. Occupancy measures the utilization of the Company’s hotels’ available capacity. Management uses Occupancy to gauge demand at a specific hotel or group of hotels in a given period. Occupancy levels also help management determine achievable Average Daily Rate (“ADR”) levels as demand for rooms increases or decreases.
     
Average Daily Rate
  ADR (or rate) represents rooms revenue divided by total number of room nights sold in a given period. ADR measures average room price attained by a hotel and ADR trends provide useful information concerning the pricing environment and the nature of the customer base of a hotel or group of hotels. ADR is a commonly used performance measure in the hotel industry, and management uses ADR to assess pricing levels that the Company is able to generate by type of customer, as changes in rates have a more pronounced effect on overall revenues and incremental profitability than changes in Occupancy, as described above.
     
Revenue per Available Room
  Revenue per Available Room (“RevPAR”) represents rooms revenue divided by the total number of room nights available to guests for a given period. Management considers RevPAR to be a meaningful indicator of the Company’s performance as it provides a metric correlated to two primary and key factors of operations at a hotel or group of hotels: Occupancy and ADR. RevPAR is also a useful indicator in measuring performance over comparable periods.
     
Total RevPAR
  Total RevPAR represents rooms, food and beverage and other hotel revenues divided by the total number of room nights available to guests for a given period. Management considers Total RevPAR to be a meaningful indicator of the Company’s performance as approximately one-third of revenues are earned from food and beverage and other hotel revenues. Total RevPAR is also a useful indicator in measuring performance over comparable periods.
     
Group Revenue Pace
  Group Revenue Pace represents bookings for future business and is calculated as group room nights multiplied by the contracted room rate expressed as a percentage of a prior period relative to a prior point in time.
