HOT.U American Hotel Income Properties REIT LP

American Hotel Income Properties REIT LP (“AHIP”) (TSX: HOT.UN, TSX: HOT.U, TSX: HOT.DB. V), today announced the extension of the maturity date for its revolving credit facility (the “RCF”) and certain term loans to June 2025 in accordance with the terms of the agreement governing such credit facilities (the “Sixth Amendment”) and provided an update on previously announced property dispositions.

All amounts presented in this news release are in United States dollars (“U.S. dollars”) unless otherwise indicated.

AHIP has satisfied the conditions in the Sixth Amendment for the extension of the maturity date for the RCF and term loans, which primary conditions include: (i) reduction of the aggregate maximum facility size to $148.2 million from and after December 3, 2024; (ii) obtaining updated appraisals for the Borrowing Base Properties (defined below) in order to determine the value of such properties for purposes of setting the maximum borrowing availability under the Sixth Amendment, which is set based on a maximum loan to value ratio of 67.5%; and (iii) compliance with the terms of the Sixth Amendment at the time of the extension, which includes among other things compliance with financial covenants including payout ratio and fixed charge coverage ratio. For further details, see a copy of the Sixth Amendment, which has been filed under AHIP’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.com.

As of the date of the news release, the balance of the RCF and term loans under the Sixth Amendment has been reduced to $133.2 million. The total appraised value of the 16 hotel properties (the "Borrowing Base Properties") is $249.2 million, which results in a loan-to-value ratio of 53.4%. The current maximum borrowing availability under the RCF and term loans is $148.2 million. The appraised value of $249.2 million for the 16 Borrowing Base Properties (1,678 keys) is equivalent to $149 thousand per key, which is significantly higher than AHIP’s enterprise value per key(1) of $95 thousand, based on the U.S. dollar closing price of US$0.36 per unit on the TSX on December 2, 2024.

In November and December 2024, AHIP completed the previously announced dispositions of three hotel properties, in Kingsland, Georgia, Ocala, Florida, and Corpus Christi, Texas, for gross proceeds of $5.2 million, $7.7 million, and $10.3 million, respectively. A portion of the total net proceeds from these dispositions, $18.0 million, was used to partially repay the term loans governed by the Sixth Amendment in the same period.

As of the date of the news release, AHIP had two hotel properties under purchase and sales agreements in Dallas, Texas, and Amarillo, Texas for gross proceeds of $27.0 million and $2.6 million, respectively, with expected closing dates in December 2024.

As previously announced, AHIP signed a non-binding term sheet with a major US Bank to refinance certain Borrowing Base Properties. As a result of the completed RCF extension and the additional time available to maturity, management is currently evaluating a number of refinancing options for the credit facilities governed by the Sixth Amendment, which include closing this refinancing in the near term. This refinancing, if completed, is expected to reduce the aggregate facility balance under the Sixth Amendment by approximately $60.0 million.

NON-IFRS AND OTHER FINANCIAL MEASURES

Management believes the following supplementary financial measures are relevant measures to monitor and evaluate AHIP’s financial and operating performance. These measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. These measures are included to provide investors and management additional information and alternative methods for assessing AHIP’s financial and operating results and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures prepared in accordance with IFRS.

Enterprise value: is a supplementary financial measure and is calculated as (i) the sum of total debt obligations as reflected on the September 30, 2024 balance sheet, AHIP’s market capitalization (which is calculated as the U.S. dollar closing price of the units on the TSX as of December 2, 2024, multiplied by the total number of units issued and outstanding), and face value of series C preferred shares, less (ii) the amount of cash and cash equivalents reflected on the September 30, 2024 balance sheet.

Enterprise value per key: is a supplementary financial measure and is calculated as enterprise value divided by the total number of hotel keys/rooms in the portfolio.
