Results for the six months ended June 30, 2010:

FFO for the six months ended June 30, 2010, were $194.3 million, or $1.57 per share, compared to FFO for the six months ended June 30, 2009, of $181.1 million, or $1.91 per share. FFO for the six months ended June 30, 2010, excludes a $6.7 million, or $0.05 per share, loss on extinguishment of debt and a $16.4 million, or $0.13 per share, loss on asset impairment.

Net income available for common shareholders for the six months ended June 30, 2010, included the $6.7 million loss on extinguishment of debt and the $16.4 million loss on asset impairment.

The weighted average number of common shares outstanding totaled 123.4 million and 94.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Hotel Portfolio Performance:

For the quarter ended June 30, 2010 compared to the same period in 2009: revenue per available room, or RevPAR, increased by 4.1% to $65.97; average daily rate, or ADR, decreased 5.6% to $90.50; and occupancy increased 6.8 percentage points to 72.9%.

For the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to the same period in 2009: RevPAR increased by 0.2% to $62.46; ADR decreased 8.0% to $91.05; and occupancy increased 5.6 percentage points to 68.6%.

Tenants and Managers:

During the six months ended June 30, 2010, all payments due to HPT under its hotel leases and management contracts were paid when due except for certain payments from Marriott International, Inc., or Marriott, and Barceló Crestline Corporation, or Crestline.

During the six months ended June 30, 2010, the payments HPT received under its management contract with Marriott (Marriott No. 3 contract: 34 hotels which requires minimum returns to HPT of $44.2 million/year) and under its lease with Crestline (Marriott No. 4 contract: 19 hotels managed by Marriott which requires minimum rent to HPT of $28.5 million/year) were $8.9 million and $5.6 million, respectively, less than the minimum amounts contractually required. HPT applied available security deposits to cover these shortfalls. Also, during the period between June 30, 2010 and August 8, 2010, HPT did not receive payments to cure shortfalls for the minimum returns due under this Marriott management contract and the minimum rent due under this Crestline lease of $0.5 million and $0.9 million, respectively, and HPT applied the security deposits it holds to cover these amounts. At August 8, 2010, the remaining balances of the security deposits for this Marriott management contract and this Crestline lease held by HPT were $17.6 million and $13.5 million, respectively.

At this time, HPT expects that Marriott will continue to pay HPT the net cash flows from operations of the hotels included in the defaulted contracts. HPT believes the security deposits it holds from Marriott and from Crestline for these contracts will exceed the 2010 shortfall of the payments it expects to receive compared to the minimum payments due to HPT under these contracts. Other than applying the security deposits to cover the differences between the net cash flows received from operations of these hotels and the contractual minimum payments, HPT has not yet determined what additional actions, if any, it may take as a result of these defaults.

As of August 8, 2010, all other payments due to HPT from its hotel managers and hotel tenants under its operating agreements are current. Similarly, all contractually required payments due HPT from TravelCenters of America LLC, or TA, for the two leases of travel centers by TA are current but TA continues to defer $5 million/month pursuant to the previously disclosed rent deferral agreement between TA and HPT.

Financing Activities:

During the second quarter of 2010, HPT repurchased an aggregate of $185.7 million face amount of its 3.8% convertible senior notes due 2027 at a total cost of $185.6 million, excluding accrued interest. HPT funded these purchases using existing cash balances and borrowings under its revolving credit facility.

On July 15, 2010, HPT redeemed $50 million of its 9.125% senior notes using borrowings under its revolving credit facility.

Common Dividend:

On July 15, 2010, HPT announced a regular quarterly common dividend of $0.45 per share ($1.80 per share per year) payable to shareholders of record on July 30, 2010; this dividend will be paid on or about August 24, 2010.

On Monday, August 9, 2010, at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time, John Murray, President, and Mark Kleifges, Chief Financial Officer, will host a conference call to discuss the results for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2010.

(1)
At June 30, 2010, each of our 289 hotels is included in one of 11 operating agreements; 197 of these hotels are leased to one of our taxable REIT subsidiaries and managed by independent hotel operating companies and 92 are leased to third parties. Our 185 travel centers are leased under two agreements. Our consolidated statements of income include hotel operating revenues and expenses of managed hotels and rental income from our leased hotels and travel centers. Certain of our managed hotel portfolios had net operating results that were, in the aggregate, $12,159 and $9,907 less than the minimum returns due to us in the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $40,749 and $30,298 less than the minimum returns due to us in the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. We reflect these amounts in our consolidated statements of income as a reduction to hotel operating expenses when the minimum returns were funded by the manager of these hotels under the terms of our operating agreements, or in the case of our Marriott No. 3 agreement, applied from the security deposit we hold.



(2)
As permitted under the previously announced rent deferral agreement, TravelCenters of America LLC, or TA, elected to defer rent of $15,000, or $0.12 per share, and $15,000, or $0.16 per share, during the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, TA elected to defer rent of $30,000, or $0.24 per share, and $30,000, or $0.32 per share, respectively. As of June 30, 2010, TA has deferred rent totaling $120,000 under this agreement. We have not recognized any deferred rents as revenue due to uncertainties regarding future payments of these amounts by TA. Under the terms of the agreement, interest began to accrue on deferred amounts outstanding on January 1, 2010, at 1% per month, and we received and recorded $3,300, or $0.03 per share, and $6,150, or $0.05 per share, of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, which has been reflected as rental income in our consolidated statements of income as required under generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP.



(3)
Various percentages of total sales at our hotels are escrowed as reserves for future renovations or refurbishment, or FF&E reserve escrows. We own all the FF&E escrows for our hotels. We report deposits by our third party tenants into the escrow accounts as FF&E reserve income. We do not report the amounts which are escrowed as FF&E reserves for our managed hotels as FF&E reserve income.



(4)
During the second quarter of 2010, we recorded a $6,720, or $0.05 per share, non-cash loss on the extinguishment of debt relating to our repurchase of $185,696 face amount of our 3.8% convertible senior notes due 2027 for an aggregate purchase price of $185,626, excluding accrued interest. The loss on extinguishment of debt is net of unamortized issuance costs and discounts of $7,260, $1,058 of the equity component of the notes and $588 of transaction costs. During the second quarter of 2009, we recorded a $13,333, or $0.14 per share, non-cash gain on the extinguishment of debt relating to our purchase of $70,671 face amount of our 3.8% convertible senior notes due 2027 and various issues of our senior notes for an aggregate purchase price of $56,292, excluding accrued interest. The gain on extinguishment of debt is net of unamortized issuance costs and discounts of $1,045. For the six months ended June 30, 2009, we recorded a $39,888, or $0.42 per share, non-cash gain on the extinguishment of debt relating to our repurchase of $192,001 face amount of our 3.8% convertible senior notes and various issues of our senior notes for an aggregate purchase price of $143,809, excluding accrued interest. The gain on extinguishment of debt is net of unamortized issuance costs and discounts of approximately $8,303 and a portion of the allocated equity component of $148.



(5)
In connection with a decision to pursue the sale of our Crowne Plaza(R) hotels in Hilton Head, SC and Dallas, TX and our Holiday Inn(R) hotel in Memphis, TN, we recorded a $16,384, or $0.13 per share, non-cash loss on asset impairment in the second quarter of 2010 to reduce the carrying value of these hotels to their estimated net realizable value less costs to sell. Our Staybridge Suites(R) hotel in Dallas, TX, will also be offered for sale but we estimate the net realizable value less costs to sell of this hotel is greater than its carrying value.



(6)
We compute FFO as shown above. Our calculation of FFO differs from the definition of FFO by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, because we include deferred percentage rent (see Note 7) and exclude gain (loss) on early extinguishment of debt (see Note 4) and loss on asset impairment (see Note 5). We consider FFO to be an appropriate measure of performance for a REIT, along with net income and cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities. We believe that FFO provides useful information to investors because by excluding the effects of certain historical costs, such as depreciation expense, it may facilitate comparison of operating performance among REITs. FFO does not represent cash generated by operating activities in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, and should not be considered an alternative to net income or cash flow from operating activities as a measure of financial performance or liquidity. FFO is among the important factors considered by our Board of Trustees when determining the amount of distributions to shareholders. Other important factors include, but are not limited to, requirements to maintain our status as a REIT, limitations in our revolving credit facility and public debt covenants, the availability of debt and equity capital to us and our expectation of our future capital needs and operating performance. Also, other REITs may calculate FFO differently than we do.



(7)
In calculating net income we recognize percentage rental income received for the first, second and third quarters in the fourth quarter, which is when all contingencies are met and the income is earned. Although we defer recognition of this revenue until the fourth quarter for purposes of calculating net income, we include these amounts in the calculation of FFO for each quarter of the year. The fourth quarter FFO calculation excludes the amounts recognized during the first three quarters.



WARNING REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

THE FOREGOING PRESS RELEASE CONTAINS FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995 AND OTHER SECURITIES LAWS. THESE FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS ARE BASED UPON HPT'S CURRENT BELIEFS AND EXPECTATIONS. HOWEVER, THESE FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS AND THEIR IMPLICATIONS ARE NOT GUARANTEED TO OCCUR AND THEY MAY NOT OCCUR FOR VARIOUS REASONS, SOME OF WHICH ARE BEYOND HPT'S CONTROL. FOR EXAMPLE:

  • THIS PRESS RELEASE REFERS TO A RENT DEFERRAL AGREEMENT WHICH HPT HAS ENTERED WITH TA. THE DESCRIPTION OF THIS ARRANGEMENT AS A DEFERRAL AGREEMENT MAY IMPLY THAT RENT AMOUNTS WHICH ARE NOT PAID WILL BE LATER PAID. IN FACT, SINCE ITS FORMATION, TA HAS NOT PRODUCED CONSISTENT OPERATING PROFITS. IF THE CURRENT U.S. ECONOMIC SLOWDOWN AND DECLINE IN TRUCKING ACTIVITY CONTINUES FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OR WORSENS, IF THE PRICE OF DIESEL FUEL INCREASES SIGNIFICANTLY OR FOR VARIOUS OTHER REASONS, TA MAY BECOME UNABLE TO PAY THE DEFERRED RENTS DUE TO HPT.
  • THIS PRESS RELEASE STATES THAT HPT EXPECTS THAT MARRIOTT WILL CONTINUE TO PAY HPT THE NET CASH FLOWS FROM OPERATIONS OF THE HOTELS INCLUDED IN THE DEFAULTED CONTRACTS. THIS EXPECTATION IS BASED UPON STATEMENTS MADE BY MARRIOTT TO HPT. HOWEVER, MARRIOTT MAY BECOME UNABLE TO MAKE SUCH PAYMENTS IF ITS OWN FINANCIAL CONDITION DETERIORATES OR MARRIOTT MAY REFUSE TO MAKE THESE PAYMENTS FOR SOME OTHER REASON. HPT HAS CERTAIN CONTRACTUAL RIGHTS TO RECEIVE THESE PAYMENTS BUT COMPANIES WHICH HAVE DEFAULTED PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS OFTEN REFUSE TO MAKE ANY PAYMENTS, AND HPT CAN PROVIDE NO ASSURANCE WITH REGARD TO MARRIOTT'S FUTURE ACTIONS.
  • THIS PRESS RELEASE STATES THAT HPT EXPECTS THAT THE SECURITY DEPOSITS IT HOLDS FROM MARRIOTT AND CRESTLINE ARE IN AMOUNTS WHICH WILL EXCEED THE 2010 SHORTFALL OF PAYMENTS IT EXPECTS TO RECEIVE UNDER THE DEFAULTED CONTRACTS. THIS EXPECTATION IS BASED UPON CASH FLOW PROJECTIONS PREPARED BY MARRIOTT AND REVIEWED BY HPT AND HPT'S OWN PROJECTIONS. BOTH MARRIOTT'S AND HPT'S HISTORICAL PROJECTIONS OF HOTEL CASH FLOWS HAVE, AT TIMES, PROVED INACCURATE. IF THE U.S. ECONOMY DOES NOT MATERIALLY IMPROVE IN A REASONABLE TIME PERIOD OR IF THE TRAVEL INDUSTRY SUFFERS SIGNIFICANT ADDITIONAL DECLINES BECAUSE OF PANDEMIC CONCERNS, ACTS OF TERRORISM OR FOR OTHER REASONS, THE ACTUAL CASH FLOWS FROM THESE HOTELS MAY BE LESS THAN THE AMOUNTS PROJECTED AND MAY BE LOWER BY A MATERIAL AMOUNT.
  • THIS PRESS RELEASE STATES THAT HPT IS HOLDING AND HAS APPLIED OR MAY APPLY SECURITY DEPOSITS TO COVER THE SHORTFALL OF THE PAYMENTS IT HAS RECEIVED OR EXPECTS TO RECEIVE UNDER THE DEFAULTED HOTEL CONTRACTS COMPARED TO THE MINIMUM PAYMENTS DUE HPT UNDER THESE CONTRACTS. THE SECURITY DEPOSITS WHICH HPT IS HOLDING ARE IN LIMITED AMOUNTS: APPROXIMATELY $17.6 MILLION FOR THE MARRIOTT NO. 3 CONTRACT AND APPROXIMATELY $13.5 MILLION FOR THE MARRIOTT NO. 4 CONTRACT AS OF AUGUST 8, 2010. AS DISCUSSED ABOVE, THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE REGARDING THE AMOUNTS OF PAYMENTS HPT MAY RECEIVE UNDER THE DEFAULTED CONTRACTS IN THE FUTURE; AND FUTURE SHORTFALLS MAY EXCEED THE AMOUNTS OF THE SECURITY DEPOSITS HPT HOLDS. MOREOVER, THESE SECURITY DEPOSITS ARE NOT ESCROWED OR OTHERWISE SEGREGATED FROM HPT'S OTHER ASSETS AND LIABILITIES; ACCORDINGLY, WHEN HPT APPLIES THESE SECURITY DEPOSITS TO COVER MINIMUM PAYMENTS DUE, IT WILL RECORD INCOME BUT IT WILL NOT RECEIVE CASH FLOW.
  • THIS PRESS RELEASE STATES THAT A DECISION HAS BEEN MADE TO PURSUE THE SALE OF FOUR HOTELS AND HAS REDUCED THE CARRYING VALUE OF THREE OF THESE HOTELS TO THEIR ESTIMATED NET REALIZABLE VALUE LESS COSTS TO SELL. IN FACT, HPT MAY BE UNABLE TO SELL THE HOTELS OR MAY SELL THE HOTELS AT AN AMOUNT THAT IS LESS THAN THEIR ADJUSTED CARRYING VALUE.

FOR THESE REASONS, AMONG OTHERS, INVESTORS ARE CAUTIONED NOT TO PLACE UNDUE RELIANCE UPON THE FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS IN THIS PRESS RELEASE.

OTHER IMPORTANT FACTORS THAT COULD CAUSE ACTUAL RESULTS TO DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THOSE IN OR IMPLIED BY OUR FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS ARE DESCRIBED MORE FULLY UNDER "ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS" IN OUR ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 10-K FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009.

EXCEPT AS REQUIRED BY LAW, WE DO NOT INTEND TO UPDATE OR CHANGE ANY FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS AS A RESULT OF NEW INFORMATION, FUTURE EVENTS OR OTHERWISE.
