First Quarter Comparable Hotels RevPAR increased 4.0%; First Quarter Adjusted EBITDA increased 10.6%;

First Quarter Modified Funds from Operations per share increased 17.6%

RICHMOND, Va.--()--Apple Hospitality REIT, Inc. (NYSE: APLE) (the “Company” or “Apple Hospitality”) today announced results of operations for the first quarter of 2016.

Justin Knight, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are pleased with our Company’s performance in the first quarter. Our highly diversified portfolio of upscale hotels produced solid Comparable Hotels RevPAR growth of 4.0 percent and Adjusted EBITDA growth of 10.6 percent, despite a calendar shift and slower national economic growth. Our broad geographic presence, with a diverse mix of demand generators, and our focus on Hilton and Marriott select service and extended stay hotels were key to our results in the quarter. With occupancies strong across the majority of our hotels, the continued focus of our asset managers and management companies on rate growth and operating cost control yielded an increase in Comparable Hotels Adjusted Hotel EBITDA Margin of 60 basis points. 2016 is off to a good start for the Company and we believe our hospitality platform and focus positions us to perform well for the remainder of the year. ”

Apple Hospitality defines metrics from “Comparable Hotels” as results generated by the 179 hotels owned as of March 31, 2016. For hotels acquired during the period, the Company has included, as applicable, results of those hotels for periods prior to the Company’s ownership, and for dispositions, results have been excluded for the Company’s period of ownership. Results for periods prior to the Company’s ownership have not been included in the Company’s actual Consolidated Financial Statements and are included only for comparison purposes.

Hotel Portfolio Overview

Apple Hospitality owns a highly diversified hotel portfolio, which helps insulate the revenue stream of the Company from regional economic dislocations that may occur from time to time. As of March 31, 2016, Apple Hospitality owned 179 hotels, with 22,961 rooms, comprised of 95 Marriott® branded hotels and 84 Hilton® branded hotels, with locations in more than 80 MSAs across 32 states.

Transactional Activity

In April 2016, the Company announced Apple Hospitality and Apple REIT Ten, Inc. (“Apple Ten”) had entered into a definitive merger agreement. The transaction would join two highly complementary select service hotel portfolios with a combined asset base consisting of 235 hotels and 30,170 guestrooms geographically diversified across 95 MSAs throughout 33 states. Apple Ten owns 56 hotels with 7,209 guestrooms. Under the merger agreement, each outstanding Unit of Apple Ten (consisting of one common share of Apple Ten and one Series A preferred share of Apple Ten) would be exchanged for combined consideration of $1.00 in cash and 0.522 shares of the Company’s common stock, and each Apple Ten Series B convertible preferred share would receive the same consideration on an as-converted basis. Also under the merger agreement, the Company would assume all of Apple Ten’s assets and liabilities at closing. The merger agreement provides Apple Ten with a 45-day go-shop period, during which Apple Ten can actively solicit alternative proposals from third parties. The go-shop period concludes on May 28, 2016. The transaction is contingent upon the approval by shareholders of both companies, receipt of certain lender and other third party approvals and satisfaction of other customary closing conditions, therefore there is no assurance that the merger will occur. If all conditions to closing are satisfied, the transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2016.

In a continued effort to enhance Apple Hospitality’s portfolio, the Company has agreements for the potential purchase of four additional hotels, all of which are under construction, for a total purchase price of approximately $81 million. The hotels currently under contract include: a 128-room Home2 Suites by Hilton® in Atlanta, GA; a 124-room Courtyard by Marriott® in Fort Worth, TX; and a dual-branded 210-room Hilton Garden Inn® and Home2 Suites by Hilton® property in Birmingham, AL. Although the Company is working towards acquiring these hotels, there are conditions to closing that have not yet been satisfied, and there can be no assurance that a closing on any of these hotels will occur under the outstanding purchase contracts. If closing conditions are satisfied, the Company anticipates closing on the acquisitions of these hotels in 2016 and 2017.

Capital Improvements

Apple Hospitality consistently reinvests in its properties in order to maintain their relevance and competitiveness within their markets. During the first quarter of 2016, the Company invested approximately $19 million in capital expenditures for existing hotels and anticipates investing an additional $30 to $40 million during the remainder of 2016, which includes various scheduled renovation projects for approximately 20 properties.

Balance Sheet

As of March 31, 2016, Apple Hospitality had approximately $1.0 billion of total indebtedness with a current combined weighted average interest rate of approximately 3.5% for the remainder of 2016. Excluding unamortized debt issuance costs and fair value adjustments, the total indebtedness is comprised of approximately $429 million in property-level debt (35 hotels) and $597 million outstanding on its $965 million unsecured credit facility. Apple Hospitality’s undrawn capacity on its revolving credit facility at March 31, 2016 was approximately $368 million. The Company’s net debt to trailing twelve months Adjusted EBITDA ratio at March 31, 2016 was 3.1 times, which provides Apple Hospitality with financial flexibility to fund capital requirements and pursue opportunities in the marketplace, including the potential merger with Apple Ten.

In April 2016, the Company entered into a $150 million unsecured term loan facility. The facility is comprised of a $100 million seven-year term loan and a $50 million five-year term loan. The primary purpose of the loans is to fund maturing secured mortgage debt. At closing the Company borrowed $50 million under the facility. The facility provides a delayed draw feature which allows the Company to draw the remaining availability by October 5, 2016. The interest rates on the loans are variable and are based on one-month LIBOR plus a spread based on the Company’s leverage ratio and ranges from 1.80% to 2.60% for the seven-year loan and from 1.45% to 2.20% for the five-year loan. Also in April 2016, the Company entered into two forward interest rate swap agreements with the same notional amounts as the term loans, which become effective in September 2016. The swaps effectively fix the interest rates on the seven-year and five-year loans at 3.13% and 2.54%, respectively. The term loans are subject to similar requirements and covenants as the Company’s $965 million unsecured credit facility.

Shareholder Distributions

Apple Hospitality paid distributions of $0.30 per common share during the three-month period ended March 31, 2016. Based on the Company’s common share closing price of $18.81 on May 3, 2016, the annualized distribution of $1.20 per common share represents an annual yield of approximately 6.4%. The Company’s Board of Directors, in consultation with management, will continue to regularly monitor the Company’s distribution rate relative to the performance of its hotels, capital improvement needs, varying economic cycles, acquisitions and dispositions. At its discretion, the Company’s Board of Directors may make adjustments as determined to be prudent in relation to other cash requirements of the Company.

2016 Outlook

Apple Hospitality is reaffirming its operational and financial outlook for 2016. This outlook, which is based on management’s current view of both operating and economic fundamentals of the Company’s existing portfolio of hotels, does not take into account the impact of the proposed merger with Apple Ten or any unanticipated developments in its business or changes in its operating environment. For the full year 2016, the Company anticipates:

Reconciliation of Net Income to Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Apple Hospitality REIT Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company considers the following non-GAAP financial measures useful to investors as key supplemental measures of its operating performance: Funds from Operations (“FFO”); Modified FFO (“MFFO”); Earnings before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”); Adjusted EBITDA (“Adjusted EBITDA”); and Adjusted Hotel EBITDA (“Adjusted Hotel EBITDA”). These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered along with, but not as alternatives to, net income, cash flow from operations or any other operating GAAP measure. FFO, MFFO, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted Hotel EBITDA are not necessarily indicative of funds available to fund the Company’s cash needs, including its ability to make cash distributions. Although FFO, MFFO, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted Hotel EBITDA, as calculated by the Company, may not be comparable to FFO, MFFO, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted Hotel EBITDA as reported by other companies that do not define such terms exactly as the Company defines such terms, the Company believes these supplemental measures are useful to investors when comparing the Company’s results between periods and with other REITs.

Reconciliation of Net Income to FFO and MFFO
(Unaudited) (in thousands)

The Company calculates and presents FFO in accordance with standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), which defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”)), excluding gains or losses from sales of real estate, extraordinary items as defined by GAAP, the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles, plus real estate related depreciation, amortization and impairments, and adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, most real estate industry investors consider FFO to be helpful in evaluating a real estate company’s operations. The Company further believes that by excluding the effects of these items, FFO is useful to investors in comparing its operating performance between periods and between REITs that report FFO using the NAREIT definition. FFO as presented by the Company is applicable only to its common shareholders, but does not represent an amount that accrues directly to common shareholders.

The Company further adjusts FFO for certain additional items that are not in NAREIT’s definition of FFO, including: (i) the exclusion of transaction costs as these do not represent ongoing operations and (ii) the exclusion of non-cash straight-line ground lease expense as this expense does not reflect the underlying performance of the related hotels. The Company presents MFFO when evaluating its performance because it believes that it provides further useful supplemental information to investors regarding its ongoing operating performance.

The following table reconciles the Company’s GAAP net income to FFO and MFFO for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 (in thousands).

Reconciliation of Net Income to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Hotel EBITDA
(Unaudited) (in thousands)

EBITDA is a commonly used measure of performance in many industries and is defined as net income excluding interest, income taxes and depreciation and amortization. The Company believes EBITDA is useful to investors because it helps the Company and its investors evaluate the ongoing operating performance of the Company by removing the impact of its capital structure (primarily interest expense) and its asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization). In addition, certain covenants included in the Company’s indebtedness use EBITDA, as defined in the specific credit agreement, as a measure of financial compliance.

The Company considers the exclusion of certain additional items from EBITDA useful, including: (i) the exclusion of transaction costs and gains or losses from sales of real estate as these do not represent ongoing operations and (ii) the exclusion of non-cash straight-line ground lease expense as this expense does not reflect the underlying performance of the related hotels.

The following table reconciles the Company’s GAAP net income to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Hotel EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 (in thousands).
