(1) Reconciliations of net income available for common shareholders
determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles, or GAAP, to funds from operations, or FFO, and Normalized
FFO and reconciliations of net income to earnings before interest,
taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA
appear later in this press release.
John Murray, President and Chief Operating Officer of Hospitality
Properties Trust, made the following statement regarding today's
announcement:
"Our operating performance continues to improve as we realize the
benefits of our property renovation program. Our Normalized FFO per
share increased 15.7% and our RevPAR growth exceeded the hotel
industry's strong performance for the ninth consecutive quarter."
Results for the Three Months and Year Ended December 31, 2014 and
Recent Activities:
-
Net Income Available for Common Shareholders: Net income
available for common shareholders for the quarter ended December 31,
2014 was $51.4 million, or $0.34 per basic and diluted share, compared
to $27.6 million, or $0.19 per basic and diluted share, for the
quarter ended December 31, 2013. The weighted average number of basic
and diluted common shares outstanding was 149.8 million for the
quarter ended December 31, 2014 and 144.9 million and 145.0 million,
respectively, for the quarter ended December 31, 2013.
Net income available for common shareholders for the year ended December
31, 2014 was $176.5 million, or $1.18 per basic and diluted share,
compared to $101.0 million, or $0.73 per basic and diluted share, for
the year ended December 31, 2013. The weighted average number of basic
and diluted common shares outstanding was 149.7 million and 149.8
million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2014 and 137.4
million and 137.5 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31,
2013.
-
Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended December
31, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013 increased 11.8% to $164.2
million.
Adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the
same period in 2013 increased 12.2% to $661.8 million.
-
Normalized FFO: Normalized FFO for the quarter ended December
31, 2014 were $121.5 million, or $0.81 per basic and diluted share,
compared to Normalized FFO for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 of
$101.3 million, or $0.70 per basic and diluted share. The $0.11, or
15.7%, increase in Normalized FFO per basic and diluted share is due
primarily to: (i) increases in annual minimum returns and rents that
resulted from HPT's funding of improvements to its hotels and travel
centers; (ii) increases in FF&E reserve income and deposits under
HPT's hotel agreements; and (iii) lower interest expense as a result
of HPT's debt refinancings in 2014.
Normalized FFO for the year ended December 31, 2014 were $493.4 million,
or $3.30 and $3.29 per share, basic and diluted, respectively, compared
to Normalized FFO for the year ended December 31, 2013 of $410.4
million, or $2.99 and $2.98 per share, basic and diluted, respectively.

total property level revenues minus FF&E reserve escrows, if any, and
all property level expenses which are not subordinated to minimum
returns and minimum rent payments to HPT to (y) HPT's minimum returns
and rents due from hotels increased to 0.82x from 0.75x for the three
months ended December 31, 2013.
For the year ended December 31, 2014, the aggregate coverage ratio of

of HPT's hotel operating agreements.
-
Recent Investment and Sales Activity: During the three months
ended December 31, 2014, HPT began marketing for sale its Courtyard by
Marriott hotel in Norcross, GA with a net book value of $4.1 million
at December 31, 2014.
In January 2015, HPT entered an agreement to acquire a 300 room full
service hotel located in Rosemont, IL for $35.5 million, excluding
closing costs. HPT plans to add this "Holiday Inn & Suites" branded
hotel to its management agreement with a subsidiary of InterContinental
Hotels Group, plc (LON: IHG; NYSE: IHG (ADRs)), or InterContinental.
Tenants and Managers: As of December 31, 2014, HPT had
nine operating agreements with seven hotel operating companies for 291
hotels with 44,107 rooms, which represented 67% of HPT's total annual
minimum returns and rents.
-
Marriott Agreements: During the three months ended December 31,
2014, 122 hotels owned by HPT were operated by subsidiaries of
Marriott International, Inc. (NASDAQ: MAR), or Marriott, under three
agreements. HPT's Marriott No. 1 agreement includes 53 hotels,
including the hotel HPT is currently marketing for sale, and provides
for annual minimum return payments to HPT of up to $68.0 million
(approximately $17.0 million per quarter). Because there is no
guarantee or security deposit for this agreement, the minimum returns
HPT receives under this agreement are limited to available hotel cash
flow after payment of operating expenses. During the three months
ended December 31, 2014, HPT realized returns under its Marriott No. 1
agreement of $17.0 million. HPT's Marriott No. 234 agreement includes
68 hotels and requires annual minimum returns to HPT of $105.9 million
(approximately $26.5 million per quarter). During the three months
ended December 31, 2014, HPT realized returns under its Marriott No.
234 agreement of $23.5 million. Marriott was not required to make any
guaranty payments to HPT during the period because the hotels under
the Marriott No. 234 agreement generated cash flows in excess of the
guaranty threshold amount on a cumulative basis for the year ended
December 31, 2014. At December 31, 2014, there was $30.7 million
remaining under the guaranty for the Marriott No. 234 agreement to
cover future payment shortfalls for up to 90% of the minimum returns
due to HPT. HPT's Marriott No. 5 agreement includes one resort hotel
in Kauai, HI which is leased to Marriott on a full recourse basis. The
contractual rent due HPT for this hotel for the three months ended
December 31, 2014 of $2.5 million was paid to HPT.
-
InterContinental Agreement: During the three months ended
December 31, 2014, HPT realized returns/rents of $34.9 million under
its agreement with subsidiaries of InterContinental, which includes 91
hotels and requires annual minimum returns/rent to HPT of $140.8
million (approximately $35.2 million per quarter). During the three
months ended December 31, 2014, HPT replenished the available security
deposit by $0.1 million for the payments HPT received during the
period in excess of the minimum returns due for the period. In October
2014, InterContinental requested and HPT returned the $4.3 million
additional security deposit InterContinental previously advanced to
HPT in the first quarter of 2014 to maintain the minimum deposit
balance required under this agreement. At December 31, 2014, the
available security deposit which HPT held to pay future payment
shortfalls was $33.0 million.
-
Other Hotel Agreements: As of December 31, 2014, HPT's
remaining 78 hotels are operated under five agreements: one management
agreement with Sonesta International Hotels Corporation, or Sonesta
(22 hotels), requiring annual minimum returns of $71.9 million
(approximately $18.0 million per quarter); one management agreement
with a subsidiary of Wyndham Worldwide Corporation (NYSE: WYN), or
Wyndham (22 hotels), requiring annual minimum returns of $27.4 million
(approximately $6.9 million per quarter); one management agreement
with a subsidiary of Hyatt Hotels Corporation (NYSE: H), or Hyatt (22
hotels), requiring annual minimum returns of $22.0 million
(approximately $5.5 million per quarter); one management agreement
with a subsidiary of Carlson Hotels Worldwide, or Carlson (11 hotels),
requiring annual minimum returns of $12.9 million (approximately $3.2
million per quarter); and one lease with a subsidiary of Morgans Hotel
Group Co. (NASDAQ: MHGC) (1 hotel) requiring annual minimum rent of
$7.6 million (approximately $1.9 million per quarter). Minimum returns
and rents due HPT are partially guaranteed under the Wyndham, Hyatt
and Carlson agreements. There is no guarantee or security deposit for
the Sonesta agreement and the minimum returns HPT receives under this
agreement are limited to available hotel cash flow after payment of
operating expenses. The payments due to HPT under these agreements for
the three months ended December 31, 2014 were paid to HPT.
-
Travel Center Agreements: As of December 31, 2014, HPT had two
leases with TravelCenters of America LLC, or TA, for 184 travel
centers located along the U.S. Interstate Highway system requiring
annual minimum rents of $226.9 million ($56.7 million per quarter),
which represent 33% of HPT's total annual minimum returns and rents.
As of December 31, 2014, all payments due to HPT from TA under these
leases were current. For the three months ended September 30, 2014,
the aggregate coverage ratio of (x) total cash flow at the leased
travel centers available to pay HPT's minimum rent due from TA to (y)
HPT's minimum rent due from TA was 1.79x. Coverage data for the three
months ended December 31, 2014 for TA is currently unavailable.

REFORM ACT OF 1995 AND OTHER SECURITIES LAWS. ALSO, WHENEVER HPT USES
WORDS SUCH AS "BELIEVE", "EXPECT", "ANTICIPATE", "INTEND", "PLAN",
"ESTIMATE" OR SIMILAR EXPRESSIONS, HPT IS MAKING FORWARD LOOKING
STATEMENTS. THESE FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS ARE BASED UPON HPT'S
PRESENT INTENT, BELIEFS OR EXPECTATIONS, BUT FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
ARE NOT GUARANTEED TO OCCUR AND MAY NOT OCCUR. ACTUAL RESULTS MAY DIFFER
MATERIALLY FROM THOSE CONTAINED IN OR IMPLIED BY THESE FORWARD LOOKING

-
THIS PRESS RELEASE QUOTES MR. MURRAY STATING THAT HPT'S OPERATING
PERFORMANCE CONTINUES TO IMPROVE AS HPT REALIZES THE BENEFITS OF ITS
PROPERTY RENOVATION PROGRAM AS WELL AS OTHER POSITIVE STATEMENTS
REGARDING HPT'S STRATEGY AND ITS EXECUTION AND IMPROVED OPERATING
RESULTS AND METRICS. THESE STATEMENTS MAY IMPLY THAT HPT'S OPERATING
PERFORMANCE WILL CONTINUE TO IMPROVE. HOWEVER, HPT'S BUSINESS IS
SUBJECT TO VARIOUS RISKS, INCLUDING, AMONG OTHERS, THE STATUS OF THE
ECONOMY GENERALLY. THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT HPT'S PERFORMANCE
WILL CONTINUE TO IMPROVE OR BE SUSTAINED AND ITS FUTURE RESULTS MAY
DECLINE.
-
HPT EXPECTS THAT, WHILE THE SECURITY DEPOSIT FOR ITS MARRIOTT NO. 234
AGREEMENT IS EXHAUSTED, MARRIOTT WILL PAY HPT UP TO 90% OF ITS MINIMUM
RETURNS UNDER A LIMITED GUARANTY. THIS STATEMENT IMPLIES THAT MARRIOTT
WILL FULFILL ITS OBLIGATION UNDER THIS GUARANTY OR THAT FUTURE
SHORTFALLS WILL NOT EXHAUST THE GUARANTY. HOWEVER, THIS GUARANTY IS
LIMITED IN AMOUNT AND EXPIRES ON DECEMBER 31, 2019, AND HPT CAN

-
HPT EXPECTS THAT INTERCONTINENTAL WILL CONTINUE TO PAY IT THE MINIMUM
RETURNS INCLUDED IN HPT'S MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT WITH INTERCONTINENTAL

PAYMENT SHORTFALLS. HOWEVER, THE SECURITY DEPOSIT HPT HOLDS FOR
INTERCONTINENTAL'S OBLIGATIONS IS FOR A LIMITED AMOUNT AND HPT CAN
PROVIDE NO ASSURANCE THAT THE SECURITY DEPOSIT WILL BE ADEQUATE TO
COVER FUTURE SHORTFALLS IN THE MINIMUM RETURNS DUE HPT FROM ITS HOTELS
MANAGED BY INTERCONTINENTAL. MOREOVER, THIS SECURITY DEPOSIT IS NOT
ESCROWED OR OTHERWISE SEGREGATED FROM HPT'S OTHER ASSETS AND
LIABILITIES; ACCORDINGLY, IF HPT APPLIES THIS SECURITY DEPOSIT TO

THAT THESE MINIMUM RETURNS AND RENTS WILL BE PAID. IN FACT, THESE
GUARANTEES AND SECURITY DEPOSITS ARE LIMITED IN AMOUNT AND DURATION
AND THE GUARANTEES ARE SUBJECT TO THE GUARANTORS' ABILITY AND
WILLINGNESS TO PAY. FURTHER, THE SECURITY DEPOSITS ARE NOT SEGREGATED
FROM HPT'S OTHER ASSETS AND THE APPLICATION OF SECURITY DEPOSITS TO
COVER SHORTFALLS WILL RESULT IN HPT RECORDING INCOME, BUT WILL NOT
RESULT IN HPT RECEIVING ADDITIONAL CASH.
-
HPT HAS ENTERED AN AGREEMENT TO ACQUIRE A HOTEL IN ROSEMONT, IL FOR
$35.5 MILLION AND HPT EXPECTS THAT IT WILL ADD THIS HOTEL TO ITS
EXISTING MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT WITH INTERCONTINENTAL. THIS TRANSACTION

(1) At December 31, 2014 HPT owned 291 hotels; 288 of these hotels are
leased by HPT to its taxable REIT subsidiaries, or TRSs, and managed by
hotel operating companies and three hotels are leased to hotel operating
companies. At December 31, 2014, HPT also owned 184 travel centers; all
184 of these travel centers are leased to a travel center operating
company under two lease agreements. HPT's consolidated statements of
income include hotel operating revenues and expenses of managed hotels
and rental income from its leased hotels and travel centers. Certain of
HPT's managed hotels had net operating results that were, in the
aggregate, $18,233 and $24,748, less than the minimum returns due to HPT
in the three months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and
$47,026 and $65,623 less than the minimum returns due to HPT in the year
ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. When the managers of
these hotels fund the shortfalls under the terms of HPT's operating
agreements or their guarantees, HPT reflects such fundings (including
security deposit applications) in its consolidated statements of income
and comprehensive income as a reduction of hotel operating expenses. The
reduction to hotel operating expenses was $5,185 and $10,313 in the
three months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $9,499
and $19,311 in the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
HPT had shortfalls at certain of its managed hotel portfolios not funded
by the managers of these hotels under the terms of its operating
agreements of $13,048 and $14,435 in the three months ended December 31,
2014 and 2013, respectively, and $37,527 and $46,312 in the year ended
December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, which represent the
unguaranteed portions of HPT's minimum returns from Marriott and from
Sonesta.
(2) In calculating net income in accordance with GAAP, HPT recognizes
percentage rental income received for the first, second and third
quarters in the fourth quarter, which is when all contingencies have
been met and the income is earned. Although HPT defers recognition of
this revenue until the fourth quarter for purposes of calculating net
income, HPT includes these estimated amounts in the calculation of
Normalized FFO and Adjusted EBITDA for each quarter of the year. The
fourth quarter Normalized FFO and Adjusted EBITDA calculations exclude
the amounts recognized during the first three quarters. Percentage
rental income included in Normalized FFO and Adjusted EBITDA was $767
and $356 in the fourth quarter of 2014 and 2013, respectively.
(3) Various percentages of total sales at certain of HPT's hotels are
escrowed as reserves for future renovations or refurbishment, or FF&E
reserve escrows. HPT owns all the FF&E reserve escrows for its hotels.
HPT reports deposits by its third party tenants into the escrow accounts
as FF&E reserve income. HPT does not report the amounts which are
escrowed as FF&E reserves for its managed hotels as FF&E reserve income.
We reversed $1,339, or $0.01 per share, of FF&E reserve income in the
fourth quarter of 2013 in connection with an amendment to our Marriott
No. 5 agreement.
(4) During the fourth quarter of 2014, HPT reversed $6,951 of estimated
business management incentive fees accrued during the first three
quarters of the year.
(5) Represents costs associated with HPT's hotel acquisition activities.
(6) HPT recorded a $2,171, or $0.02 per share, loss on asset impairment
in the second quarter of 2013 in connection with its plan to sell one
hotel. HPT recorded a $5,837, or $0.04 per share, loss on asset
impairment in the third quarter of 2013 in connection with an eminent
domain taking of its travel center in Roanoke, VA by the Virginia
Department of Transportation.
(7) HPT recorded a $726 loss on early extinguishment of debt in the
first quarter of 2014 in connection with amending the terms of its
revolving credit facility and unsecured term loan and the redemption of
its 7.875% senior notes due 2014. HPT recorded a $129 loss on early
extinguishment of debt in the third quarter of 2014 in connection with
its redemption of its 5⅛% senior notes due 2015.
(8) HPT recorded a $6,868, or $0.05 per share, income tax benefit in the
second quarter of 2013 in connection with the restructuring of certain
of its TRSs.
(9) HPT recorded a $130 gain on sale of real estate in the second
quarter of 2014 in connection with the sale of one hotel.
(10) On July 1, 2013, HPT redeemed all of its outstanding 7.0% Series C
Preferred Shares at their liquidation preference of $25 per share, plus
accumulated and unpaid distributions. The liquidation preference of the
redeemed shares exceeded the carrying amount for the redeemed shares as
of the date of redemption by $5,627, or $0.04 per share, and HPT reduced
net income available to common shareholders in the third quarter of 2013
by that excess amount.
(11) HPT calculates FFO and Normalized FFO as shown above. FFO is
calculated on the basis defined by The National Association of Real
Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, which is net income available for
common shareholders, calculated in accordance with GAAP, excluding any
gain or loss on sale of properties and loss on impairment of real estate
assets, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, as well as
certain other adjustments currently not applicable to HPT. HPT's
calculation of Normalized FFO differs from NAREIT's definition of FFO
because it includes estimated percentage rent in the period to which it
estimates that it relates rather than when it is recognized as income in
accordance with GAAP and includes business management incentive fees, if
any, only in the fourth quarter versus the quarter they are recognized
as expense in accordance with GAAP and excludes acquisition related
costs, excess liquidation preference over carrying value of preferred
shares redeemed, loss on early extinguishment of debt and the deferred
income tax benefit described above. HPT considers FFO and Normalized FFO
to be appropriate measures of operating performance for a REIT, along
with net income, net income available for common shareholders, operating
income and cash flow from operating activities. HPT believes that FFO
and Normalized FFO provide useful information to investors because by
excluding the effects of certain historical amounts, such as
depreciation expense, FFO and Normalized FFO may facilitate a comparison
of HPT's operating performance between periods and with other REITs. FFO
and Normalized FFO are among the factors considered by HPT's Board of
Trustees when determining the amount of distributions to shareholders.
Other factors include, but are not limited to, requirements to maintain
HPT's status as a REIT, limitations in its revolving credit facility and
term loan agreement and public debt covenants, the availability of debt
and equity capital to HPT, HPT's expectation of its future capital
requirements and operating performance, and HPT's expected needs for and
availability of cash to pay its obligations. FFO and Normalized FFO do
not represent cash generated by operating activities in accordance with
GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income,
operating income, net income available for common shareholders or cash
flow from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP, or as
indicators of HPT's financial performance or liquidity, nor are these
measures necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of
HPT's needs. These measures should be considered in conjunction with net
income, operating income, net income available for common shareholders
and cash flow from operating activities as presented in HPT's
consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income and
consolidated statements of cash flows. Other REITs and real estate
companies may calculate FFO and Normalized FFO differently than HPT does.
(12) Amounts represent incentive fees under HPT's business management
agreement payable in common shares after the end of each calendar year
calculated: (i) prior to 2014 based upon increases in annual cash
available for distribution per share, as defined, and (ii) beginning in
2014 based on common share total return. In calculating net income in
accordance with GAAP, HPT recognizes estimated business management
incentive fee expense, if any, each quarter. Although HPT recognizes
this expense, if any, each quarter for purposes of calculating net
income, HPT does not include these amounts in the calculation of
Normalized FFO until the fourth quarter, which is when the actual
expense amount for the year is determined. The calculation of net income
for the fourth quarter of 2014 includes the reversal of $6,951 of
estimated business management incentive fees accrued during the first
three quarters of the year. The calculation of fourth quarter 2014
Normalized FFO includes a deduction for this amount. The calculation of
fourth quarter 2013 Normalized FFO includes a deduction of $2,026 for
estimated business management incentive fees accrued during the first
three quarters of the year. Incentive business management fee expense
was zero and $2,772 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013,
respectively. Adjustments were made to prior period amounts to conform
to the current period Normalized FFO calculation.
(13) HPT calculates EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as shown above. HPT
considers EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to be appropriate measures of its
operating performance, along with net income, net income available for
common shareholders, operating income and cash flow from operating
activities. HPT believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provide useful
information to investors because by excluding the effects of certain
historical amounts, such as interest, depreciation and amortization
expense, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may facilitate a comparison of
current operating performance with past operating performance. EBITDA
and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent cash generated by operating
activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an
alternative to net income, net income available for common shareholders,
operating income or cash flow from operating activities, determined in
accordance with GAAP, or as an indicator of financial performance or
liquidity, nor are these measures necessarily indicative of sufficient
cash flow to fund all of HPT's needs. These measures should be
considered in conjunction with net income, operating income, net income
available for common shareholders and cash flow from operating
activities as presented in HPT's consolidated statements of income and
comprehensive income and consolidated statements of cash flows. Other
REITs and real estate companies may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
differently than HPT does.
(14) Amounts represent the portion of business management fees that are
payable in HPT's common shares as well as equity based compensation for
HPT's trustees, its officers and certain employees of HPT's manager.
Adjustments were made to prior period amounts to conform to the current
period Adjusted EBITDA calculation.
