Item 5. Other Events
On July 21, 2004, Host Marriott Corporation issued an earnings release announcing its financial results for the second
quarter ended June 18, 2004. The consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statement of operations and other financial data for the second quarter included in the earnings release are filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and are incorporated herein by reference.
Second quarter results include the following:
| • | Total revenue was $927 million and $1,730 million for the second quarter and year-to-date 2004, respectively, compared to $828 million and $1,597 million for the second quarter and year-to-date 2003, respectively. |
| • | Net income (loss) was $17 million and $(14) million for the second quarter and year-to-date 2004, respectively, as compared to $(14) million and $(48) million for the second quarter and year-to-date 2003, respectively. |
| • | Earnings (loss) per diluted share was $.02 and $(.10) for the second quarter and year-to-date 2004, respectively, compared to $(.09) and $(.25) for the second quarter and year-to-date 2003, respectively. |
| • | Results of operations for the second quarter and year-to-date 2004 include approximately $30 million and $42 million, respectively, of charges for call premiums and the acceleration of deferred financing costs for prepayment of debt. For the second quarter and year-to-date 2004, this represents approximately $.09 and $.13 of earnings per diluted share, respectively. |
In addition, the Company announced the following information which we deem of importance to security holders:
| • | the redemption of $559 million of 7 7/8% Series B senior notes with the proceeds from the first quarter issuance of 3.25% exchangeable senior debentures, asset sales and available cash. As a result of these redemptions, the Company recorded a charge for call premiums and the acceleration of deferred financing costs totaling approximately $30 million in the quarter. |
| • | the issuance of 4 million shares of 8 7/8% Class E redeemable preferred stock for net proceeds of approximately $97 million. These proceeds, along with available cash, will be used to redeem all 4.16 million shares of the 10% Class A preferred stock on August 3, 2004 for approximately $104 million. |
| • | the issuance of 25 million shares of common stock for net proceeds to the Company of approximately $301 million, which, along with available cash, were used to acquire the Fairmont Kea Lani Maui on July 15, 2004. |
| • | on July 15, 2004, the Company acquired the 450-suite Fairmont Kea Lani Maui, a premier luxury resort hotel located on 21 acres of Wailea’s Polo Beach for $355 million. The Company also completed the sale of the Dallas/Fort Worth Marriott for $59 million in the second quarter. |
| • | as of June 18, 2004, the Company had $771 million of cash and cash equivalents and $250 million of availability under its credit facility. After taking into consideration the acquisition of Fairmont Kea Lani and the redemption of the Class A preferred stock, the Company will have a cash balance of approximately $300 million. |
| • | the Company indicated that it will continue to pay its quarterly dividends on its preferred stock. In addition, the Company expects to pay a $.04 to $.06 per share dividend on its common stock in the fourth quarter of 2004, representing the final distribution of 2003 taxable income. Assuming continued improvement in operations in 2005 and a corresponding growth in taxable income, the Company intends to reinstate a quarterly dividend on its common stock in the $.04 to $.06 per share range beginning with the first quarter of 2005, which will be payable on or about April 15, 2005. Assuming further continued improvement in the Company’s operations, the Company believes its taxable income and hence its common dividend has the potential to grow substantially in subsequent years. |

Exhibit 99.1
Introductory Note to Financial Information
The Company
Host Marriott Corporation, herein referred to as “we” or “Host Marriott,” is a self-managed and self-administered real estate investment trust (REIT) that owns primarily hotel properties. We conduct our operations as an umbrella partnership REIT through an operating partnership, Host Marriott, L.P., or Host LP, of which we are the sole general partner. For each share of our common stock, Host LP has issued to us one unit of operating partnership interest, or OP Unit. When distinguishing between Host Marriott and Host LP, the primary difference is the 6% of the partnership interests in Host LP held by outside partners as of July 21, 2004, which is reflected as minority interest in our consolidated balance sheets and minority interest expense in our consolidated statements of operations. Readers are encouraged to find further detail regarding our organizational structure in our annual report on Form 10-K.

| (a) | Our consolidated balance sheet as of June 18, 2004 has been prepared without audit. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) have been omitted. The consolidated balance sheets should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and as amended from time to time in other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). |

Consolidated Balance Sheets (a)
(unaudited, in millions, except share amounts)
| (b) | We adopted Financial Interpretation No. 46 “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (FIN 46) in 2003. Under FIN 46, our limited purpose trust subsidiary that was formed to issue trust-preferred securities (the Convertible Preferred Securities Trust) was accounted for on a consolidated basis as of December 31, 2003 since we were the primary beneficiary under FIN 46. |
In December 2003, the FASB issued a revision to FIN 46, which we refer to as FIN 46R. Under FIN 46R, we are not the primary beneficiary and we are required to deconsolidate the accounts of the Convertible Preferred Securities Trust. We adopted the provisions of FIN 46R on January 1, 2004. As a result, we recorded the $492 million in debentures (the Convertible Subordinated Debentures) issued by the Convertible Preferred Securities Trust and eliminated the $475 million of Convertible Preferred Securities that were previously classified in the mezzanine section of our consolidated balance sheet prior to January 1, 2004. The difference of $17 million is our investment in the Convertible Preferred Securities Trust, which is included in “Investments in affiliates” on our consolidated balance sheet. Additionally, we classified the related dividend payment of approximately $15 million as interest expense. The adoption of FIN 46R had no effect on our net loss, loss per diluted share or financial covenants under our senior notes indentures.
| (c) | On July 1, 2004, we called for the redemption of all of the outstanding 10% Class A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock. The Class A preferred stock will be redeemed on August 3, 2004 at a redemption price of $25.00 per share plus accrued dividends to the redemption date. |

Diluted earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders as adjusted for potentially dilutive securities, by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus other potentially dilutive securities. Dilutive securities may include shares granted under comprehensive stock plans, those preferred OP Units held by minority partners, other minority interests that have the option to convert their limited partnership interests to common OP Units and the Convertible Subordinated Debentures. No effect is shown for any securities that are anti-dilutive. |
