EXPLANATORY NOTE

This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc. and Host Hotels & Resorts, L.P. Unless stated otherwise or the context requires otherwise, references to “Host Inc.” mean Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and references to “Host L.P.” mean Host Hotels & Resorts, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, and its consolidated subsidiaries, in cases where it is important to distinguish between Host Inc. and Host L.P. We use the terms “we,” “our” or “the company” to refer to Host Inc. and Host L.P. together, unless the context indicates otherwise.

Host Inc. operates as a self-managed and self-administered real estate investment trust (“REIT”). Host Inc. owns properties and conducts operations through Host L.P., of which Host Inc. is the sole general partner and of which it holds approximately 99% of the partnership interests (“OP units”). The remaining OP units are owned by various unaffiliated limited partners. As the sole general partner of Host L.P., Host Inc. has the exclusive and complete responsibility for Host L.P.’s day-to-day management and control. Management operates Host Inc. and Host L.P. as one enterprise. The management of Host Inc. consists of the same persons who direct the management of Host L.P. As general partner with control of Host L.P., Host Inc. consolidates Host L.P. for financial reporting purposes, and Host Inc. does not have significant assets other than its investment in Host L.P. Therefore, the assets and liabilities of Host Inc. and Host L.P. are substantially the same on their respective condensed consolidated financial statements and the disclosures of Host Inc. and Host L.P. also are substantially similar. For these reasons, we believe that the combination into a single report of the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of Host Inc. and Host L.P. results in benefits to management and investors.

The substantive difference between Host Inc.’s and Host L.P.’s filings is the fact that Host Inc. is a REIT with public stock, while Host L.P. is a partnership with no publicly traded equity. In the condensed consolidated financial statements, this difference primarily is reflected in the equity (or partners’ capital for Host L.P.) section of the consolidated balance sheets and in the consolidated statements of equity (or partners’ capital for Host L.P.). Apart from the different equity treatment, the condensed consolidated financial statements of Host Inc. and Host L.P. are nearly identical.

This combined Form 10-Q for Host Inc. and Host L.P. includes, for each entity, separate interim financial statements (but combined footnotes), separate reports on disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting and separate CEO/CFO certifications. In addition, with respect to any other financial and non-financial disclosure items required by Form 10-Q, any material differences between Host Inc. and Host L.P. are discussed separately herein. For a more detailed discussion of the substantive differences between Host Inc. and Host L.P. and why we believe the combined filing results in benefits to investors, see the discussion in the combined Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 under the heading “Explanatory Note.”

Supplemental schedule of noncash investing and financing activities:

In 2021, non-cash consideration for the acquisition of the Four Seasons Resort Orlando at Walt Disney World® Resort included the assumption of hotel-level liabilities of approximately $24 million, consisting primarily of advance deposits received from guests for future stays that were retained by the seller.

 

In connection with the sale of a parcel of land adjacent to The Phoenician hotel in 2020, we received as consideration a note receivable for $9 million. The proceeds received in 2020 from the sale are net of this note receivable. The note receivable was collected in January 2021.

Supplemental schedule of noncash investing and financing activities:

In 2021, non-cash consideration for the acquisition of the Four Seasons Resort Orlando at Walt Disney World® Resort included the assumption of hotel-level liabilities of approximately $24 million, consisting primarily of advance deposits received from guests for future stays that were retained by the seller.

 

In connection with the sale of a parcel of land adjacent to The Phoenician hotel in 2020, we received as consideration a note receivable for $9 million. The proceeds received in 2020 from the sale are net of this note receivable. The note receivable was collected in January 2021.

Organization

Description of Business

Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc. operates as a self-managed and self-administered real estate investment trust (“REIT”), with its operations conducted solely through Host Hotels & Resorts, L.P. and its subsidiaries. Host Hotels & Resorts, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, operates through an umbrella partnership structure, with Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc., a Maryland corporation, as its sole general partner. In the notes to these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, we use the terms “we” or “our” to refer to Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc. and Host Hotels & Resorts, L.P. together, unless the context indicates otherwise. We also use the term “Host Inc.” specifically to refer to Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc. and the term “Host L.P.” specifically to refer to Host Hotels & Resorts, L.P. in cases where it is important to distinguish between Host Inc. and Host L.P. As of September 30, 2021, Host Inc. holds approximately 99% of Host L.P.’s partnership interests.

Liquidity and Management’s Plans

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant adverse impact on U.S. and global economic activity and has contributed to significant volatility in financial markets beginning in the first quarter of 2020. While many of the restrictive measures put in place in jurisdictions where we own hotels have been lifted, the COVID-19 pandemic continues to negatively impact the U.S. lodging industry generally and our company specifically.

At the start of the pandemic, we suspended operations at 35 hotels. As of September 30, 2021, all hotels that previously suspended operations have resumed operations and are currently open. While the U.S. economic recovery has accelerated and hotel operations have improved during each quarter of the year, the pandemic continues to have a material negative impact on our financial results and cash flows. In 2020, we drew down $1.5 billion on the revolver portion of our credit facility as a precautionary measure in order to increase our cash position and preserve financial flexibility. We are continuing to take measures to maintain our liquidity, including operating expense reductions and the suspension of dividends and common stock repurchases. We also have reached agreements with our hotel managers to temporarily suspend furniture, fixture and equipment (“FF&E”) replacement fund contributions for our hotels and to defer certain hotel initiatives and brand standards.

Consolidated Portfolio

As of September 30, 2021, our consolidated portfolio, primarily consisting of luxury and upper upscale hotels, is located in the following countries:

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

We have condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. We believe the disclosures made herein are adequate to prevent the information presented from being misleading. However, the financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10–K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position as of September 30, 2021, and the results of our operations for the quarter and year-to-date periods ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and cash flows for the year-to-date periods ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of full year performance because of the effect of seasonal variations as well as the impact from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Three of the partnerships in which we own an interest are considered variable interest entities (VIEs) as the general partner maintains control over the decisions that most significantly impact such partnerships. These VIEs include the operating partnership, Host L.P., which is consolidated by Host Inc., of which Host Inc. is the sole general partner and holds approximately 99% of its partnership interests; the consolidated partnership that owns the Houston Airport Marriott at George Bush Intercontinental; and the unconsolidated partnership that owns the Philadelphia Marriott Downtown. Host Inc.’s sole significant asset is its investment in Host L.P. and, consequently, substantially all of Host Inc.’s assets and liabilities consists of the assets and liabilities of Host L.P. All of Host Inc.’s debt is an obligation of Host L.P. and may be repaid only with assets of Host L.P.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year financial statement amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share (Unit)

Basic earnings (loss) per common share (unit) is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders (unitholders) by the weighted average number of shares of Host Inc. common stock or Host L.P. common units outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share (unit) is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders (unitholders), as adjusted for potentially dilutive securities, by the weighted average number of shares of Host Inc. common stock or Host L.P. common units outstanding plus other potentially dilutive securities. Dilutive securities may include shares granted under comprehensive stock plans or the Host L.P. common units distributed to Host Inc. to support such shares granted, and other non-controlling interests that have the option to convert their limited partner interests to Host L.P. common units. No effect is shown for any securities that are anti-dilutive. We have 7.1 million Host L.P. common units, which are convertible into 7.3 million Host Inc. common shares, that are not included in

Revenue

Substantially all our operating results represent revenues and expenses generated by hotel-level operations. Payments are due from customers when services are provided to them. Due to the short-term nature of our contracts and the almost concurrent receipt of payment, we have no material unearned revenue at quarter end. We collect sales, use, occupancy and similar taxes from our customers, which we present on a net basis (excluded from revenues) on our statements of operations.

Debt

Senior Notes. As of September 30, 2021, we have met the minimum financial covenant levels under our senior notes indentures, which reinstates our ability to incur additional debt so long as we maintain these covenant levels and subject to the provisions of our credit facility and senior notes indentures.

Credit Facility. As of September 30, 2021, we have $12 million of available capacity under the revolver portion of our credit facility. On June 26, 2020 and February 9, 2021, we entered into amendments to the existing senior unsecured bank credit facility with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, (collectively, the “Amendments”). The Amendments suspend requirements to comply with all existing financial maintenance covenants under the credit facility for the period which began on July 1, 2020 and ending on the required financial statement reporting date for the second quarter of 2022 (such period, the “Covenant Relief Period”). Subsequent to quarter end, we terminated the Covenant Relief Period prior to its expiration, as we met the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio required for our first phase-in quarterly test period.

Capital of Host L.P.

As of September 30, 2021, Host Inc. is the owner of approximately 99% of Host L.P.’s common OP units. The remaining common OP units are owned by unaffiliated limited partners. Each common OP unit may be redeemed for cash or, at the election of Host Inc., Host Inc. common stock, based on the conversion ratio of 1.021494 shares of Host Inc. common stock for each common OP unit. Under the credit facility, all redemptions must be made with Host Inc. common stock until Host L.P.’s leverage ratio (as calculated under the credit facility) is below 7.25x.

In exchange for any shares issued by Host Inc., Host L.P. will issue common OP units to Host Inc. based on the applicable conversion ratio. Additionally, funds used by Host Inc. to pay dividends on its common stock are provided by distributions from Host L.P.

Share Repurchases

As of September 30, 2021, we have $371 million available for repurchase under our common share repurchase program. In accordance with the restrictions in our amended credit facility, there have been no share repurchases year-to-date in 2021.

Issuance of Common Stock

On May 6, 2021, we entered into a distribution agreement with J. P. Morgan Securities LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., BTIG, LLC, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Scotia Capital (USA) Inc., Truist Securities, Inc. and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as sales agents, pursuant to which we may issue and sell, from time to time, shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $600 million. The sales will be made in “at the market” offerings under the SEC rules. We may sell shares of Host Inc. common stock under this program from time to time based on market conditions, although we are not under an obligation to sell any shares. No shares were issued during the third quarter. Year-to-date, we have issued approximately 7.8 million shares under the program at an average price of $17.99 per share, for net proceeds of approximately $138 million. In connection with the common stock issuance by Host Inc., Host L.P. issued 7.6 million common OP units to Host Inc. At September 30, 2021, there was $460 million of remaining capacity under the agreement.

Dividends/Distributions

As part of our response to the COVID-19 pandemic and in order to preserve cash and future financial flexibility, we have suspended our regular quarterly common cash dividends. Additionally, based on the terms of the credit facility amendments, we are restricted from paying a quarterly common cash dividend in excess of $0.01 per share during the Covenant Relief Period, unless a higher amount is required to allow Host Inc. to maintain its REIT status or to avoid the payment of corporate income or excise taxes, until after the covenant waiver period expires. Subsequent to quarter end, we terminated the Covenant Relief Period early, as we met the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio required for our first phase-in quarterly test period.

 

8.

Acquisitions

During the quarter, we acquired the 200-room Baker's Cay Resort Key Largo, Curio Collection by Hilton, for $200 million, a 223-room luxury downtown Houston hotel for $65 million and the 59-room Alila Ventana Big Sur for $150 million.

 

 

9.

Dispositions

 

Subsequent to quarter end, we sold the Westfields Marriott Washington Dulles, San Ramon Marriott, The Westin Buckhead Atlanta, The Westin Los Angeles Airport and The Whitley for $551 million, including approximately $11 million for the FF&E replacement funds. As of September 30, 2021, these hotels were classified as held for sale. We anticipate recording a gain of approximately $300 million in the fourth quarter.

We did not elect the fair value measurement option for any of our financial liabilities. The fair value of our credit facility is determined based on expected future payments discounted at a risk-adjusted rate. Our senior notes are valued based on quoted market prices. The fair values of financial instruments not included in this table are estimated to be equal to their carrying amounts.

We assess our property and equipment, primarily comprised of hotel properties, for impairment when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. Due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations, we performed recoverability assessments on all of our hotel properties. Additionally, during the third quarter, due to changes in expected hold periods, the book value for certain property and equipment exceeded its undiscounted future cash flows. Therefore, we recorded impairment expense of $92 million based on third party assessments of values, including broker estimates and purchase offers, which are considered observable inputs other than quoted prices (Level 2) in the GAAP fair value hierarchy. The impairment expense is included in depreciation and amortization on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of the impaired property and equipment following the write-down was $393 million.

Geographic Information

We consider each of our hotels to be an operating segment, as we allocate resources and assess operating performance based on individual hotels. All of our hotels meet the aggregation criteria for segment reporting and our other real estate investment activities (primarily our retail spaces and office buildings) are immaterial. As such, we report one segment: hotel ownership. Our consolidated foreign operations consist of hotels in two countries as of September 30, 2021. There were no intersegment sales during the periods presented.

Non-controlling Interests

Host Inc.’s treatment of the non-controlling interests of Host L.P.: Host Inc. adjusts the amount of the non-controlling interests of Host L.P. each period so that the amount presented equals the greater of their carrying amount based on accumulated historical cost or their redemption value. The historical cost is based on the proportional relationship between the historical cost of equity held by our common stockholders relative to that of the common unitholders of Host L.P. The redemption value is based on the amount of cash or Host Inc. common stock, at our option, that would be paid to the non-controlling interests of Host L.P. if it were terminated. Therefore, the redemption value of the common OP units is equivalent to the number of common shares that would be issued upon conversion of the common OP units held by third parties valued at the market price of Host Inc. common stock at the balance sheet date. One common OP unit may be exchanged for 1.021494 shares of Host Inc. common stock. Redeemable non-controlling interests of Host L.P. are classified in the mezzanine section of our balance sheets as they do not meet the requirements for equity classification because the redemption feature requires the delivery of registered shares.

Legal Proceedings

We are involved in various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business regarding the operation of our hotels and company matters. To the extent not covered by insurance, these legal proceedings generally fall into the following broad categories: disputes involving hotel-level contracts, employment litigation, compliance with laws such as the Americans with Disabilities Act, tax disputes and other general matters. Under our management agreements, our operators have broad latitude to resolve individual hotel-level claims for amounts generally less than $150,000. However, for matters exceeding such threshold, our operators may not settle claims without our consent.

 

Based on our analysis of legal proceedings with which we are involved or of which we currently are aware and our experience in resolving similar claims in the past, we have recorded immaterial accruals as of September 30, 2021 related to such claims. We have estimated that, in the aggregate, our losses related to these proceedings will not be material. We are not aware of any matters with a reasonably possible unfavorable outcome for which disclosure of a loss contingency is required. No assurances can be given as to the outcome of any pending legal proceedings.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report. Host Inc. operates as a self-managed and self-administered REIT. Host Inc. is the sole general partner of Host L.P. and holds approximately 99% of its partnership interests. Host L.P. is a limited partnership operating through an umbrella partnership structure. The remaining common OP units are owned by various unaffiliated limited partners.

Forward-Looking Statements

In this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, we make forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are identified by their use of terms and phrases such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “expect,” “may,” “intend,” “predict,” “project,” “plan,” “will,” “estimate” and other similar terms and phrases, including references to assumptions and forecasts of future results. Forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations and assumptions and are not guarantees of future performance. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results to differ materially from those anticipated at the time the forward-looking statements are made.

The following factors, among others, could cause actual results and future events to differ materially from those set forth or contemplated in the forward-looking statements:

the duration and scope of the COVID-19 pandemic and its short and longer-term impact on the demand for travel, transient and group business, and levels of consumer confidence; actions governments, businesses and individuals take in response to the pandemic, including limiting or banning travel; the ability of our hotel managers to operate hotels in a way that facilitates social distancing, implement enhanced cleaning protocols and other COVID-19 pandemic mitigation practices; the impact of the pandemic and actions taken in response to the pandemic on global and regional economies, travel, and economic activity, including the duration and magnitude of its impact on unemployment rates, business investment and consumer discretionary spending; the pace of recovery as the COVID-19 pandemic subsides; general economic uncertainty in U.S. markets where we own hotels and the potential for low levels of economic growth in these markets; and the effects on hotel operations of steps that our hotel managers take to reduce operating costs in response to the COVID-19 pandemic;
the effect on lodging demand of (i) changes in national and local economic and business conditions, including concerns about the pace of U.S. economic growth, global economic prospects, consumer confidence and the value of the U.S. dollar, and (ii) factors that may shape public perception of travel to a particular location, such as natural disasters, weather, changes in the international political climate, and the occurrence or potential occurrence of terrorist attacks, all of which will affect occupancy rates at our hotels and the demand for hotel products and services;
the impact of geopolitical developments outside the United States, such as the pace of economic growth in Europe, the effects of the United Kingdom’s withdrawal from the European Union, escalating trade tensions between the United States and its trading partners such as China, or conflicts in the Middle East, all of which could affect the relative volatility of global credit markets generally, global travel and lodging demand within the United States;
risks that U.S. immigration policies, border closings related to the COVID-19 pandemic and travel bans will suppress international travel to the United States;
volatility in global financial and credit markets, in particular because of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the impact of budget deficits and potential U.S. governmental action to address such deficits through reductions in spending and similar austerity measures, which could materially adversely affect U.S. and global economic conditions, business activity, credit availability, borrowing costs, and lodging demand;
operating risks associated with the hotel business, including the effect of labor stoppages or strikes, increasing operating or labor costs or changes in workplace rules that affect labor costs and risks relating to the response to the COVID-19 pandemic, such as increased costs relating to severance and furloughed hotel employees as a result of measures taken by our hotel managers in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and risks associated with our managers’ ability to successfully increase staffing levels to meet expected increases in lodging demand due to the challenging labor environment;
the effect of rating agency downgrades of our debt securities on the cost and availability of new debt financings;
the reduction in our operating flexibility and the limitation on our ability to incur debt, pay dividends and make distributions resulting from restrictive covenants in our debt agreements, including the waivers we obtained under our credit facility as a result of not meeting the original covenant thresholds that otherwise would have been required and other risks associated with the amount of our indebtedness or related to restrictive covenants in our debt agreements, including the risk that a default could occur as a result of the decline in operations due to the COVID-19 pandemic;

21


 

our ability to maintain our hotels in a first-class manner, including meeting capital expenditures requirements, and the effect of renovations, including temporary closures, on our hotel occupancy and financial results;
the ability of our hotels to compete effectively against other lodging businesses in the highly competitive markets in which we operate in terms of access, location, quality of accommodations and room rate structures;
our ability to acquire or develop additional hotels and the risk that potential acquisitions or developments may not perform in accordance with our expectations;
the ability to complete hotel renovations on schedule and under budget and the potential for increased costs and construction delays due to government restrictions on non-essential activities and shortages of supplies as a result of supply chain disruptions due to the COVID-19 pandemic;
relationships with property managers and joint venture partners and our ability to realize the expected benefits of our joint ventures and other strategic relationships;
risks associated with a single manager, Marriott International, managing a significant portion of our hotels;
changes in the desirability of the geographic regions of the hotels in our portfolio or in the travel patterns of hotel customers;
the ability of third-party internet and other travel intermediaries to attract and retain customers;
our ability to recover fully under our existing insurance policies for terrorist acts and our ability to maintain adequate or full replacement cost “all-risk” property insurance policies on our hotels on commercially reasonable terms;
the effect of a data breach or significant disruption of hotel operator information technology networks as a result of cyber attacks;
the effects of tax legislative action and other changes in laws and regulations, or the interpretation thereof, including the need for compliance with new environmental and safety requirements;
the ability of Host Inc. and each of the REITs acquired, established or to be established by Host Inc. to continue to satisfy complex rules in order to qualify as REITs for federal income tax purposes and Host Inc.’s and Host L.P.’s ability and the ability of our subsidiaries, and similar entities to be acquired or established by us, to operate effectively within the limitations imposed by these rules; and
risks associated with our ability to execute our dividend policy, including factors such as the need to preserve cash and financial flexibility in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, investment activity, operating results and the economic outlook, any or all of which may influence the decision of our board of directors as to whether to pay future dividends at levels previously disclosed or to use available cash to pay special dividends.

We undertake no obligation to publicly update forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Achievement of future results is subject to risks, uncertainties and potentially inaccurate assumptions, including those risk factors discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and in other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance that we will attain these expectations or that any deviations will not be material.

Operating Results and Outlook

COVID-19 Response

The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly adversely impacted U.S. and global economic activity and has contributed to significant volatility in financial markets beginning in the first quarter of 2020. While many of the restrictive measures put in place in jurisdictions where we own hotels have been lifted, the pandemic continues to have a material adverse effect on operations and future bookings and is expected to continue to have a material negative impact on our financial results and cash flows.

We have not filed for any relief under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) or the American Rescue Plan Act; however, several of our operators, including Hyatt and Marriott, have filed for the Employee Retention Credit (“ERC”) to partially offset the costs of their furloughed hotel employees under Title II of the CARES Act, as discussed below. Benefits received by our operators from the ERC related to their employees working at our hotels ultimately benefit us as we bear the expense for the wages and benefits of all persons working at our hotels. Benefit costs for furloughed employees did not have a significant impact on the third quarter 2021 results, as they were eligible to be reimbursed through the American Rescue Plan Act, the

22


 

reimbursement for which our managers have applied. We also expect that these benefit costs will not have a significant impact on our fourth quarter results.

In response to the pandemic, we and our managers, as applicable, have accomplished the following:

Implemented portfolio-wide cost reductions, resulting in a reduction of pro forma hotel operating costs across the portfolio by approximately 30% in the third quarter of 2021, compared to 2019. While we expect that certain initiatives, including modernized brand standards, streamlined operating departments and accelerated adoption of cost-saving technologies, may lead to long-term expense reductions, we also expect hotel operating costs to increase more in line with total revenues over time as hotels continue to transition from their contingency level operational plans to increased staffing levels and controllable spending;
Suspended contributions to certain of our hotels’ FF&E escrow accounts;
Accessed the full $1.5 billion under the revolver portion of the credit facility in 2020 as a precautionary measure in order to increase our cash position and preserve financial flexibility, while further amending the credit agreement governing our $1.5 billion revolving credit facility and two $500 million term loans in 2021. Under the amendments, the quarterly-tested financial covenants were waived beginning July 1, 2020 until the required financial statement reporting date for the second quarter of 2022. Subsequent to quarter end, we exited the waiver period prior to the first scheduled covenant test, and will be required to meet the modified financial covenants, under the terms of the amendment, for the subsequent five quarters; and
Suspended regular quarterly common cash dividends and stock repurchases until further notice. All future dividends are subject to approval by the Board of Directors.

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the company remains fluid, as does our corporate and property-level response, together with the response of our hotel operators. While vaccination rates have increased during the first three quarters of the year, there remains a great deal of uncertainty surrounding the trends and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, and we are monitoring developments on an ongoing basis. We, and our hotel managers, may take additional actions in response to future developments.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects on operations, we are temporarily presenting hotel operating results on an All Owned Hotel pro forma basis. Thus, operating results are presented for all consolidated hotels owned as of September 30, 2021 and do not include the results of operations for hotels sold through the reporting date. Additionally, operating results for acquisitions as of September 30, 2021 are reflected for full calendar years, which include results for periods prior to our ownership.

Operations

While still well below pre-pandemic levels, total revenues increased $646 million, or 326.3%, for the third quarter as compared to the third quarter of 2020 due to strong leisure demand at our resort hotels and limited return of group business. For the year-to-date, total revenues increased $539 million, or 39.8%, with quarter over quarter improvement in the first three quarters of 2021. All owned hotel RevPAR and Total RevPAR on a constant US$ basis for the quarter increased 307.3% and 288.5%, respectively, due to increases in occupancy and food and beverage revenues. For the year-to-date, all owned hotel RevPAR and Total RevPAR on a constant US$ basis increased 51.5% and 38.7%, respectively.

During the quarter, all owned hotel Total RevPAR in our Jacksonville, Maui, and Miami markets totaled $683, $635 and $334, respectively, representing increases of 32.2%, 14.6% and 13.5%, compared to 2019, due to strong leisure demand. Our hotels in New York and San Francisco/San Jose, our two largest markets by room count, experienced all owned hotel Total RevPAR of $131 and $104, respectively, representing declines of 61.7% and 65.5%, compared to 2019, as operations at these hotels begin to ramp up following the lifting of many of the COVID-19 restrictions previously in place in these markets. All owned hotel Total RevPAR was lowest for our New Orleans property, at $92, a decline of 47.6% compared to 2019, due to the impact of Hurricane Ida.

Operating trends continue to be positive in the third quarter of 2021, as vaccine distribution has continued and many jurisdictions have lifted COVID-19 restrictions. In particular, hotels in Florida, Arizona and Hawaii continue to drive the portfolio, with RevPAR levels that are approaching or exceeding 2019 levels. At the same time, hotel-level operating costs are increasing at lower rates, as hiring did not keep pace with the improvement in operations at these resort destinations. The lag in hiring is due to the challenging labor environment across the industry, coupled with improving occupancy, which has hindered our managers' ability to adjust staffing levels commensurate with the increase in demand. We anticipate that hotel-level operating costs over time will increase at a higher rate, as our hotel managers adjust back to more normalized levels of operations.

Although operations remain below pre-pandemic levels, as a result of continued operational improvements at our hotels since the COVID-19 pandemic began in mid-March 2020, third quarter and year-to-date 2021 results improved when compared to 2020 as follows:

net loss decreased $196 million for the quarter and $341 million year-to-date;
diluted loss per share for the quarter decreased $0.27 for the quarter and $0.48 year-to-date;

24


 

Adjusted EBITDAre increased $288 million for the quarter and $426 million year-to-date; and
Adjusted FFO per diluted share increased $0.31 for the quarter and $0.47 year-to-date.

Outlook

While the COVID-19 pandemic has severely impacted macroeconomic and industry expectations for 2021, year-over-year growth in real GDP and business investment have seen a strong rebound from 2020, supported by recent stimulus, low interest rates, vaccine distribution, and the lifting of many government-imposed restrictions across the U.S. Blue Chip Economic Indicators consensus currently estimates an increase in real GDP of 5.7% for 2021, while business investment is anticipated to increase 7.9%. Though analysts believe the unemployment rate peaked in 2020, it is anticipated to remain elevated in 2021, with an expected average of 5.6% for the year. The range of potential outcomes on the economy and the lodging industry specifically remains exceptionally wide, reflecting the unprecedented nature of the pandemic and varying analyst assumptions surrounding the impact of supply chain disruptions, labor shortages in key industries and inflation expectations.

Hotel supply growth is anticipated to remain below the long-term historical average in 2021, as social distancing measures and supply chain challenges have resulted in project delays across the U.S. However, the pandemic has had an outsized impact on our industry demand. As a result, RevPAR recovery to pre-pandemic levels is lagging that of the broader U.S. economy, despite lower supply growth. Luxury and upper upscale hotels in top U.S. markets, where a majority of our hotels are located, have been most heavily affected by the pandemic, due in part to the sharp decline in air travel, particularly from international arrivals, and the slower recovery of corporate and group demand. While we have seen improving trends across all location types, we anticipate that these factors will persist through the remainder of 2021.

As a result of the significant uncertainties related to the impact of new virus variants, the pace of vaccination, particularly for school-aged children, and broader macroeconomic trends in 2021, we anticipate that the industry outlook will continue to be weighed down by the slower return of corporate and group travel, as many businesses and employees remain cautious. While strong leisure demand has supported growing investor optimism throughout 2021, the delayed return to office is likely to continue to constrain business transient and group travel in the near term. Therefore, the timing and trajectory of the recovery is difficult to forecast due to a wide range of customer responses to vaccines and the virus, seasonal shifts in the mix of business and leisure demand, as well as a condensed booking window for hotel rooms. While we currently anticipate RevPAR growth for the remainder of the year, we cannot provide a full year forecast for RevPAR at this time. We believe that the continued recovery within the lodging industry is highly dependent on the strength of the economy, consumer confidence and the return of corporate and group travel. Accordingly, we believe that the impact of the recovery on specific markets and industries will be uneven.

 

As noted above, the current outlook for the lodging industry remains highly uncertain. There can be no assurances as to the extent and timing for a recovery in lodging demand for any number of reasons, including, but not limited to, slower than anticipated return of group and business travel.

 

Strategic Initiatives

 

Balance Sheet and Financing Transactions. As of September 30, 2021, we had $1.0 billion of cash and cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2021, we have met the minimum financial covenant levels under our senior notes indentures, which reinstates our ability to incur additional debt so long as we maintain these covenant levels and subject to the provisions of our credit facility and senior notes indentures. We also exited our credit facility Covenant Relief Period as discussed in more detail in subsequent sections.

Acquisitions. During the third quarter, we acquired the 200-room Baker's Cay Resort Key Largo, Curio Collection by Hilton, for $200 million, a 223-room luxury downtown Houston hotel for $65 million and the 59-room Alila Ventana Big Sur for $150 million. The downtown Houston hotel has been renamed The Laura Hotel, part of the Autograph Collection by Marriott, and will be managed by HEI Hotels & Resorts. It is expected to open in the fourth quarter of 2021.

Dispositions. Subsequent to quarter end, we sold the Westfields Marriott Washington Dulles, San Ramon Marriott, The Westin Buckhead Atlanta, The Westin Los Angeles Airport and The Whitley for $551 million, including approximately $11 million for the FF&E replacement funds.

Capital Projects. We are utilizing the low occupancy environment to accelerate certain projects and minimize future disruption. During the first three quarters of 2021, we spent approximately $201 million on ROI capital projects and $92 million on renewal and replacement projects. For full year 2021, we expect total capital expenditures of $410 million to $465 million. This total amount consists of ROI projects of approximately $285 million to $320 million and renewal and replacement expenditures of $125 million to $145 million. ROI projects include approximately $115 million to $140 million for the Marriott transformational capital program discussed below.

25


 

During the third quarter, we completed the development of the multi-year renovation at the New York Marriott Marquis, including all 1,966 guestrooms, over 140,000 square feet of meeting space, the addition of a skybridge and a renovated lobby with new bars and upgraded restaurants. Additionally, we completed the multi-year renovation at the Orlando World Center Marriott, including all 2,010 guestrooms, a redesigned 18th hole at the golf course and an updated lobby. The projects at both properties were part of the Marriott transformational capital program, discussed below.

We have made substantial progress on the Marriott transformational capital program, which began in 2018 and is expected to be substantially complete by the end of 2022, and includes 16 of our hotels. We believe this program will position these hotels to be more competitive in their respective markets and will enhance long-term performance through increases in RevPAR and market yield index. We agreed to invest amounts in excess of the FF&E reserves required under our management agreements and, in exchange, Marriott has provided additional priority returns on the agreed upon investments and operating profit guarantees of up to $83 million, before reductions for incentive management fees, to offset expected business disruption. Approximately 79% of the total estimated costs of the program have been spent as of September 30, 2021, and we expect to complete approximately 85% of the program by the end of 2021. Of the 16 hotels included in the program, we have completed projects at the Coronado Island Marriott Resort & Spa, New York Marriott Downtown, San Francisco Marriott Marquis, and Santa Clara Marriott in 2019 and projects at the Minneapolis Marriott City Center, San Antonio Marriott Rivercenter and JW Marriott Atlanta Buckhead in 2020. So far during 2021, we have completed the projects at The Ritz-Carlton Amelia Island, New York Marriott Marquis and Orlando World Center Marriott and we expect to substantially complete the projects at Houston Marriott Medical Center.

Statement of Operations Results and Trends

The COVID-19 pandemic began to significantly impact hotel operations beginning in mid-March of 2020. However, RevPAR has increased during 2021, from $44.29 in January to $126.23 in September. There can be no assurances that the increases in RevPAR will continue.

While still below pre-pandemic levels, operations have improved in the third quarter of 2021 compared to 2020. This has impacted operations as follows:

Rooms. Total rooms revenues increased $431 million for the quarter and increased $424 million, or 52.2%, year-to-date.

Food and beverage. Total food and beverage (“F&B”) revenues increased $160 million for the quarter and increased $33 million, or 8.9%, year-to-date. Banquet and AV revenues for the third quarter 2021 increased significantly compared to the second quarter of 2021, while year-to-date, F&B revenue growth has primarily been driven by the performance of our outlets.

Other revenues. Total other revenues increased $55 million for the quarter and increased $82 million, or 48.8%, year-to-date, due primarily to strong ancillary revenues.

Our operating costs and expenses, which have both fixed and variable components, are affected by several factors. Rooms expenses are affected mainly by occupancy, which drives costs related to items such as housekeeping, reservation systems, room supplies, laundry services and front desk costs. Food and beverage expenses correlate closely with food and beverage revenues and are affected by occupancy and the mix of business between banquet, audio-visual and outlet sales. However, the most significant expense for the rooms, food and beverage, and other departmental and support expenses is wages and employee benefits, which comprise approximately 55% of these expenses. Due to a significant decline in operations and implementation of portfolio-wide cost reductions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, staffing levels at our hotels declined significantly, leading to a reduction to wages and benefits expense compared to pre-pandemic levels, despite above inflationary growth in hourly wages, which we expect to continue

27


 

into 2022. Portfolio-wide hotel operating costs in the third quarter and year-to-date 2021, excluding severance, were nearly 30% and 44% lower, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2019. In addition, included in these amounts for the year-to-date 2021 is a reduction to wages and benefits of approximately $11 million, related to the ERC recorded by our managers, the benefit of which was passed on to us.

The ramp up in staffing at several hotels during 2021 continues to lag the increase in demand due to the challenging labor market across the industry, which could result in upward pressure on wages and benefits going forward. However, the expiration of supplemental unemployment benefits may temper possible increases. As a result of the lag in hiring, portfolio-wide operating expenses were only 21% higher compared to the second quarter of 2021, despite an approximately 25% increase in total revenues quarter over quarter. Other property-level expenses consist of property taxes, the amounts and structure of which are highly dependent on local jurisdiction taxing authorities, and property and general liability insurance, all of which do not necessarily increase or decrease based on similar changes in revenues at our hotels.

The change in expenses for the third quarter compared to 2020 for rooms, food and beverage, other departmental and support, and management fees predominantly are due to the start of the recovery from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. While our operators have maintained a reduced level of expenses compared to pre-pandemic levels, an increase in occupancy and hotel operations has led to increases in expenses for the third quarter of 2021 compared to 2020. For the year-to-date period, despite pre-pandemic results in January and February of 2020, improving occupancy in 2021 led to an increase in most expenses for 2021 compared to 2020, with the exception of F&B expenses and other property level expenses. As a result, expenses changed as follows:

Rooms. Rooms expenses increased $81 million for the quarter, and increased $25 million, or 8.4%, year-to-date.

Food and beverage. F&B expenses increased $74 million for the quarter and decreased $43 million, or 12.1%, year-to-date. The decrease year-to-date reflects the pre-pandemic expense levels for January and February of 2020.

Other departmental and support expenses. Other departmental and support expenses increased $143 million, or 131.2%, for the quarter and increased $80 million, or 14.8%, year-to-date.

Management fees. Base management fees, which generally are calculated as a percentage of total revenues, increased $19 million for the quarter, and increased $16 million, or 41.0%, year-to-date. Incentive management fees, which generally are based on the amount of operating profit at each hotel after we receive a priority return on our investment, increased $3 million for the quarter and $10 million year-to-date.

Other property-level expenses. These expenses generally do not vary significantly based on occupancy and include expenses such as property taxes and insurance. Other property level expenses increased $5 million, or 6.5%, for the quarter and decreased $1 million, or 0.4%, year-to-date. Other property-level expenses also were partially offset by operating profit guarantees received from Marriott under the transformational capital program.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased $97 million, or 58.4%, for the quarter and $99 million, or 19.9%, for the year-to-date, primarily due to impairment expense of $92 million recorded in the third quarter of 2021.

Interest expense.

(1)
Including the change in accrued interest, total cash interest paid was $32 million and $53 million for the quarters ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $115 million and $126 million for the year-to-date 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Other gains. Other gains increased $2 million for the quarter and decreased $9 million, or 69.2%, year-to-date. The decrease year-to-date is primarily due to the sale of a parcel of land adjacent to The Phoenician hotel in the second quarter of 2020, which resulted in a gain of approximately $12 million.

Equity in earnings (losses) of affiliates. Equity in earnings of affiliates increased $7 million for the third quarter and $62 million year-to-date, due to improvements in operations at the affiliates as well as unrealized gains on our investment in Fifth Wall Ventures, L.P. in 2021, while 2020 year-to-date included an impairment of inventory at our Maui timeshare of $14 million.

Benefit for income taxes. We lease substantially all our properties to consolidated subsidiaries designated as taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRS”) for federal income tax purposes. Taxable income or loss generated/incurred by the TRS primarily represents hotel-level operations and the aggregate rent paid to Host L.P. by the TRS, on which we record an income tax provision or benefit. For the quarter and year-to-date, we recorded an income tax benefit of $13 million and $81 million, respectively, due primarily to the domestic net operating loss incurred by our TRS. Any domestic net operating loss incurred by our TRS in 2021 may be carried forward indefinitely, its use in future years being subject to a limit of 80% of annual taxable income. Our TRS is expected to generate additional net operating losses in 2021.

Hotel RevPAR Overview

To facilitate a quarter-to-quarter comparison of our operations, we typically present certain operating statistics for the periods included in this presentation on a comparable hotel basis. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects on operations, there is little comparability between periods. For this reason, we temporarily suspended our comparable hotel presentation to instead present pro forma hotel operating results for all hotels. See “All Owned Hotel Pro Forma Hotel Operating Statistics and Results” for a complete description of our methodology. We also discuss our Hotel RevPAR results by geographic location and mix of business (i.e., transient, group, or contract).

Hotel Business Mix

Our customers fall into three broad categories: transient, group, and contract business, which accounted for approximately 61%, 35%, and 4%, respectively, of our full year 2019 room sales. The information below is derived from business mix data for the 84 hotels that we owned as of September 30, 2021. For additional detail on our business mix, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10‑K.

 

The following are the results of our consolidated portfolio transient, group and contract business:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity and Capital Resources of Host Inc. and Host L.P. The liquidity and capital resources of Host Inc. and Host L.P. are derived primarily from the activities of Host L.P., which generates the capital required by our business from hotel operations, the incurrence of debt, the issuance of OP units or the sale of hotels. Host Inc. is a REIT and its only significant asset is the ownership of general and limited partner interests of Host L.P.; therefore, its financing and investing activities are conducted through Host L.P., except for the issuance of its common and preferred stock. Proceeds from common and preferred stock issuances by Host Inc. are contributed to Host L.P. in exchange for common and preferred OP units. Additionally, funds used by Host Inc. to pay dividends or to repurchase its stock are provided by Host L.P. Therefore, while we have noted those areas in which it is important to distinguish between Host Inc. and Host L.P., we have not included a separate discussion of liquidity and capital resources as the discussion below applies to both Host Inc. and Host L.P.

We look to maintain a capital structure and liquidity profile with an appropriate balance of cash, debt, and equity to provide financial flexibility given the inherent volatility of the lodging industry. We believe this strategy has resulted in a lower cost of debt capital, allowing us to complete opportunistic investments and acquisitions and it positions us to manage potential declines in operations throughout the lodging cycle. We have structured our debt profile to maintain a balanced maturity schedule and to minimize the number of hotels that are encumbered by mortgage debt. Currently, none of our consolidated hotels are encumbered by mortgage debt. Over the past several years leading up to the COVID-19 pandemic, we had decreased our leverage as measured by our net debt-to-EBITDA ratio and reduced our debt service obligations, leading to an increase in our fixed charge coverage ratio. As a result, we were well positioned at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic with sufficient liquidity and financial flexibility to withstand the severe slowdown in U.S. economic activity and lodging demand brought on by the pandemic. As the financial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and its duration remain uncertain, we believe these actions will provide us with financial flexibility until the pandemic subsides and lodging demand recovers.

Under the current challenging operating environment posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, we have taken steps to preserve liquidity by working with our hotel operators to reduce operating costs at our hotels, closely monitoring our capital expenditures levels, and suspending our quarterly dividend and stock repurchases. Along with improving operating cash flows during the third quarter, we believe that we have sufficient liquidity to fund negative operations at certain of our hotels, corporate expenses, capital expenditures and hotel acquisitions. We used approximately $1.2 billion of cash to fund the acquisition of five properties year-to-date and, subsequent to quarter end, we sold five properties for a sales price of approximately $551 million, including $11 million for the FF&E replacement funds. Additionally, we accessed our “at-the-market” equity program, discussed below, to issue approximately 7.8 million shares of our common stock during the second quarter for net proceeds of approximately $138 million. No shares were issued in the third quarter. We remain well positioned to execute additional transactions to the extent opportunities arise.

Cash Requirements. We use cash for acquisitions, capital expenditures, debt payments, operating costs, and corporate and other expenses, as well as for dividends and distributions to stockholders and to OP unitholders, respectively, and stock and OP unit repurchases. We have no debt maturities until 2023. As a REIT, Host Inc. is required to distribute to its stockholders at least 90% of its taxable income, excluding net capital gain, on an annual basis. As part of our COVID-19 pandemic response, our regular quarterly common cash dividend is currently suspended and we are restricted from repurchasing stock or OP Units under the terms of our credit facility amendments.

Capital Resources. As of September 30, 2021, we had $1,038 million of cash and cash equivalents and $138 million in our FF&E escrow reserves. We have substantially utilized the $1.5 billion revolver under our credit facility. We depend primarily on external sources of capital to finance future growth, including acquisitions. As a result, the liquidity and debt capacity provided by our credit facility and the ability to issue senior unsecured debt are key components of our capital structure. Our financial flexibility, including our ability to incur debt, pay dividends, make distributions and make investments, is contingent on our ability to maintain compliance with the financial covenants of our credit facility and senior notes indentures, which include, among other things, the allowable amounts of leverage, interest coverage and fixed charges.

On May 6, 2021, we entered into a distribution agreement with J. P. Morgan Securities LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., BTIG, LLC, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Scotia Capital (USA) Inc., Truist Securities, Inc. and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as sales agents, through which Host Inc. may issue and sell, from time to time, shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $600 million. The shares can be offered and sold through sales agents in transactions that are deemed to be “at the market” offerings at then-current market prices. We are not obligated to issue any shares and may do so when we believe conditions are advantageous and there is a compelling use of proceeds, including to fund future potential acquisitions or other investment opportunities generated by the COVID-19 pandemic. As of September 30, 2021, there was $460 million of remaining capacity under the agreement.

While we currently have $371 million available under our share repurchase program, additional share repurchases are currently restricted under the terms of the credit facility amendments. There have been no share repurchases during 2021 year-to-date and we do not anticipate additional share repurchases during the remainder of 2021.

Given the total amount of our debt and our maturity schedule, we may continue to redeem or repurchase senior notes from time to time, taking advantage of favorable market conditions. In February 2021, Host Inc.’s Board of Directors authorized repurchases of up to $1.0 billion of senior notes other than in accordance with their respective terms, of which the entire amount remains available under this authority. We may purchase senior notes with cash through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, a tender offer, or through the early redemption of such securities pursuant to their terms. Repurchases of debt will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. Any retirement before the maturity date will affect earnings and NAREIT FFO per diluted share as a result of the payment of any applicable call premiums and the accelerated expensing of previously deferred and capitalized financing costs. Accordingly, considering our priorities in managing our capital structure and liquidity profile, and given prevailing conditions and relative pricing in the capital markets, we may, at any time, subject to applicable securities laws and the requirements under our credit facility and senior notes, be considering, or be in discussions with respect to, the repurchase or issuance of exchangeable debentures and/or senior notes or the repurchase or sale of our common stock. Any such transactions may, subject to applicable securities laws, occur simultaneously.

We continue to explore potential acquisitions and dispositions. We anticipate that any such future acquisitions will be funded by proceeds from sales of hotels, equity offerings of Host Inc., issuances of OP units by Host L.P., or available cash. Given the nature of these transactions, we can make no assurances that we will be successful in acquiring any one or more hotels that we may review, bid on or negotiate to purchase or that we will be successful in disposing of any one or more of our hotels. We may acquire additional hotels or dispose of hotels through various structures, including transactions involving single assets, portfolios, joint ventures, acquisitions of the securities or assets of other REITs or distributions of hotels to our stockholders.

Sources and Uses of Cash. Our sources of cash generally include cash from operations, proceeds from debt and equity issuances, and proceeds from hotel sales. Uses of cash include acquisitions, capital expenditures, operating costs, debt repayments, and repurchases of shares and distributions to equity holders. We do not anticipate significant cash from operations in 2021, however, we have significant available cash and also have access to debt and stock issuances and property dispositions as alternative sources of cash.

Cash Provided by/Used in Operating Activities. Year-to-date in 2021, net cash provided by operating activities was $78 million compared to net cash used in operating activities of $164 million for year-to-date 2020. Cash provided by operating activities in 2021 was driven by improved operations at our hotels compared to 2020. Cash used in operating activities in 2020 was primarily to fund operating shortfalls at certain of our hotels.

Cash Used in Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities was $1,502 million during year-to-date 2021 compared to $349 million for year-to-date 2020. Cash used in investing activities during year-to-date 2021 primarily was due to $293 million of capital expenditures and the acquisition of five hotels and two golf courses. Cash used in investing activities during year-to-date 2020 primarily was due to $384 million of capital expenditures.

Cash Provided by Financing Activities. For year-to-date 2021, net cash provided by financing activities was $127 million compared to $1,337 million for the first three quarters of 2020. Cash provided by financing activities in year-to-date 2021 included net proceeds of $138 million from common stock issuances, while the year-to-date 2020 consisted of the issuance of $750 million of 3.5% Series I senior notes and a draw on the credit facility. Cash used in the first three quarters of 2020 included the repayment of a portion of the Series C senior notes with a portion of the proceeds of the issuance of the Series I senior notes, the redemption of preferred OP units, stock repurchases and dividend payments and distributions, prior to their suspension later in 2020.

Debt

As of September 30, 2021, our total debt was $5.5 billion, with a weighted average interest rate of 3.0% and a weighted average maturity of 4.2 years. Additionally, 55% of our debt has a fixed rate of interest and none of our consolidated hotels are encumbered by mortgage debt.

Financial Covenants

Credit Facility Covenants. Our credit facility contains certain important financial covenants concerning allowable leverage, unsecured interest coverage, and required fixed charge coverage. Total debt used in the calculation of our ratio of consolidated total debt to consolidated EBITDA (our “Leverage Ratio”) is based on a “net debt” concept, under which cash and cash equivalents in excess of $100 million are deducted from our total debt balance for purposes of measuring compliance.

On June 26, 2020 and February 9, 2021, we entered into amendments to the existing senior unsecured bank credit facility with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, (collectively, the “Amendments”). The Amendments suspend requirements to comply with all existing financial maintenance covenants under the credit facility for the period which began on July 1, 2020 and ending on the required financial statement reporting date for the second quarter of 2022 (such period, the “Covenant Relief Period”). The existing financial maintenance covenants are reinstated for the quarter ending June 30, 2022, except that after the reinstatement instead of using the prior four calendar quarters’ results in the calculations, only results for the second quarter of 2022 and thereafter are used during a phase in period. In addition, for the second quarter of 2022, the only financial covenant that is required to be satisfied is a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.00:1.00 as of the end of such quarter. For the fiscal quarters ending after the Covenant Relief Period, the financial covenant requirements set forth in the credit facility before the Amendments apply, except that the maximum leverage ratio requirement will be amended to be (a) 8.50:1:00 as at the end of the first and second fiscal quarters ending after the Covenant Relief Period, (b) 8.00:1.00 as at the end of the third and fourth fiscal quarters ending after the Covenant Relief Period, (c) 7.50:1:00 as at the end of the fifth fiscal quarter ending after the Covenant Relief Period and (d) 7.25:1.00 at all times thereafter.

The Amendments permit us to terminate the Covenant Relief Period at any time, subject to demonstrating satisfaction of the financial maintenance covenants that otherwise would apply for the quarter ending June 30, 2022. Subsequent to quarter end, we terminated the Covenant Relief Period prior to the first scheduled test date, as we met the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio required for our first phase-in quarterly test period. We will be required to meet the modified phase-in financial covenant thresholds set forth above for the following five quarters and, after that time (i.e. beginning with first quarter of 2023), will be subject to the original covenant levels in the credit facility prior to amendment. Upon termination of the Covenant Relief Period, the 40-basis point additional interest rate applicable to borrowings under the credit facility was removed, in addition to lifting additional restrictions on repayments, investments and distributions. Certain restrictions, however, will remain in place. For example, stock repurchases will continue to be prohibited until our leverage ratio is below 7.25x.

At September 30, 2021, the following table summarizes the results of the financial tests required by the credit facility, which are calculated on a trailing twelve month basis, for informational purposes only, as the covenants currently are not in effect under the Amendment:

As of September 30, 2021, we have met the minimum financial covenant levels under our senior notes indentures, which reinstates our ability to incur additional debt so long as we maintain these covenant levels and subject to the provisions of our credit facility and senior notes indentures. Because we are just above the minimum required EBITDA-to-interest coverage ratio as of quarter end, our ability to use debt as a financing source remains limited at this time.

For additional details on our credit facility and senior notes, including the terms of the Amendments, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Dividend Policy

Host Inc. is required to distribute at least 90% of its annual taxable income, excluding net capital gains, to its stockholders in order to maintain its qualification as a REIT. Funds used by Host Inc. to pay dividends on its common stock are provided by distributions from Host L.P. As of September 30, 2021, Host Inc. is the owner of approximately 99% of the Host L.P. common OP units. The remaining common OP units are owned by unaffiliated limited partners. Each Host L.P. OP unit may be redeemed for cash or, at the election of Host Inc., Host Inc. common stock based on the conversion ratio. The conversion ratio is 1.021494 shares of Host Inc. common stock for each Host L.P. common OP unit. Under the credit facility, as amended, all redemptions must be made with Host Inc. common stock until Host L.P.’s leverage ratio is below 7.25x.

Investors should consider the non-controlling interests in the Host L.P. common OP units when analyzing dividend payments by Host Inc. to its stockholders, as these Host L.P. common OP unitholders share, on a pro rata basis, in cash distributed by Host L.P. to all of its common OP unitholders. For example, if Host Inc. paid a $1 per share dividend on its common stock, it would be based on the payment of a $1.021494 per common OP unit distribution by Host L.P. to Host Inc., as well as to the other unaffiliated Host L.P. common OP unitholders.

Host Inc.’s policy on common dividends generally is to distribute, over time, 100% of its taxable income, which primarily is dependent on Host Inc.’s results of operations, as well as tax gains and losses on hotel sales. As part of our response to the COVID-19 pandemic and in order to preserve cash and future financial flexibility, we have suspended our regular quarterly common cash dividend. All future dividends are subject to Board approval.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. While we do not believe that the reported amounts would be materially different, application of these policies involves the exercise of judgment and the use of assumptions as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates. We evaluate our estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. All of our significant accounting policies, including certain critical accounting policies, are disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

All Owned Hotel Pro Forma Operating Statistics and Results

To facilitate a quarter-to-quarter comparison of our operations, we typically present certain operating statistics (i.e., Total RevPAR, RevPAR, average daily rate and average occupancy) and operating results (revenues, expenses, hotel EBITDA and associated margins) for the periods included in this presentation on a comparable hotel basis in order to enable our investors to better evaluate our operating performance (discussed in “Hotel Property Level Operating Results” below). However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects on operations, there is little comparability between periods. For this reason, we temporarily suspended our comparable hotel presentation and instead present hotel operating results for all consolidated hotels and, to facilitate comparisons between periods, we are presenting results on a pro forma basis, including the following adjustments: (1) operating results are

38


 

presented for all consolidated hotels owned as of September 30, 2021, but do not include the results of operations for properties sold through the reporting date; and (2) operating results for acquisitions as of September 30, 2021 are reflected for full calendar years, to include results for periods prior to our ownership. For these hotels, since the year-over-year comparison includes periods prior to our ownership, the changes will not necessarily correspond to changes in our actual results.

Constant US$ and Nominal US$

Operating results denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the prevailing exchange rates on the date of the transaction, or monthly based on the weighted average exchange rate for the period. For comparative purposes, we also present the RevPAR results for the prior year assuming the results of our foreign operations were translated using the same exchange rates that were effective for the comparable periods in the current year, thereby eliminating the effect of currency fluctuation for the year-over-year comparisons. We believe this presentation is useful to investors as it provides clarity with respect to the change in RevPAR in the local currency of the hotel consistent with the manner in which we would evaluate our domestic portfolio. However, the estimated effect of changes in foreign currency has been reflected in the results of net income (loss), EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDAre, diluted earnings (loss) per common share and Adjusted FFO per diluted share. Nominal US$ results include the effect of currency fluctuations, consistent with our financial statement presentation.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We use certain “non-GAAP financial measures,” which are measures of our historical or future financial performance that are not calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, within the meaning of applicable SEC rules. These measures include the following:

Earnings Before Interest Expense, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”), Earnings Before Interest Expense, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization for real estate (“EBITDAre”) and Adjusted EBITDAre, as a measure of performance for Host Inc. and Host L.P.,
Funds From Operations (“FFO”) and FFO per diluted share, both calculated in accordance with National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) guidelines and with certain adjustments from those guidelines, as a measure of performance for Host Inc., and
All Owned Hotel Pro Forma operating statistics and results, as a measure of performance for Host Inc. and Host L.P.

The following discussion defines these measures and presents why we believe they are useful supplemental measures of our performance.

Set forth below for each such non-GAAP financial measure is a reconciliation of the measure with the financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP that we consider most directly comparable thereto. We also have included in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Non-GAAP Financial Measures” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 further explanations of the adjustments being made, a statement disclosing the reasons why we believe the presentation of each of the non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors regarding our financial condition and results of operations, the additional purposes for which we use the non-GAAP financial measures and limitations on their use.

EBITDA, EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre

EBITDA

EBITDA is a commonly used measure of performance in many industries. Management believes EBITDA provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations because it helps us and our investors evaluate the ongoing operating performance of our properties after removing the impact of our capital structure (primarily interest expense) and our asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization). Management also believes the use of EBITDA facilitates comparisons between us and other lodging REITs, hotel owners that are not REITs and other capital-intensive companies. Management uses EBITDA to evaluate property-level results and as one measure in determining the value of acquisitions and dispositions and, like FFO and Adjusted FFO per diluted share, it is widely used by management in the annual budget process and for our compensation programs.

39


 

EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre

We present EBITDAre in accordance with NAREIT guidelines, as defined in its September 2017 white paper “Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization for Real Estate,” to provide an additional performance measure to facilitate the evaluation and comparison of our results with other REITs. NAREIT defines EBITDAre as net income (calculated in accordance with GAAP) excluding interest expense, income tax, depreciation and amortization, gains or losses on disposition of depreciated property (including gains or losses on change of control), impairment expense of depreciated property and of investments in unconsolidated affiliates caused by a decrease in value of depreciated property in the affiliate, and adjustments to reflect the entity’s pro rata share of EBITDAre of unconsolidated affiliates.

We make additional adjustments to EBITDAre when evaluating our performance because we believe that the exclusion of certain additional items described below provides useful supplemental information to investors regarding our ongoing operating performance. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDAre, when combined with the primary GAAP presentation of net income, is beneficial to an investor’s understanding of our operating performance. Adjusted EBITDAre also is similar to the measure used to calculate certain credit ratios for our credit facility and senior notes. We adjust EBITDAre for the following items, which may occur in any period, and refer to this measure as Adjusted EBITDAre:

Property Insurance Gains – We exclude the effect of property insurance gains reflected in our consolidated statements of operations because we believe that including them in Adjusted EBITDAre is not consistent with reflecting the ongoing performance of our assets. In addition, property insurance gains could be less important to investors given that the depreciated asset book value written off in connection with the calculation of the property insurance gain often does not reflect the market value of real estate assets.
Acquisition Costs – Under GAAP, costs associated with completed property acquisitions that are considered business combinations are expensed in the year incurred. We exclude the effect of these costs because we believe they are not reflective of the ongoing performance of the Company.
Litigation Gains and Losses – We exclude the effect of gains or losses associated with litigation recorded under GAAP that we consider outside the ordinary course of business. We believe that including these items is not consistent with our ongoing operating performance.
Severance Expense – In certain circumstances, we will add back hotel-level severance expenses when we do not believe that such expenses are reflective of the ongoing operation of our properties. Situations that would result in a severance add-back include, but are not limited to, (i) costs incurred as part of a broad-based reconfiguration of the operating model with the specific hotel operator for a portfolio of hotels and (ii) costs incurred at a specific hotel due to a broad-based and significant reconfiguration of a hotel and/or its workforce. We do not add back corporate-level severance costs or severance costs at an individual hotel that we consider to be incurred in the normal course of business.

In unusual circumstances, we also may adjust EBITDAre for gains or losses that management believes are not representative of the Company’s current operating performance. The last adjustment of this nature was a 2013 exclusion of a gain from an eminent domain claim.

(1) Net loss, EBITDA, EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDAre, NAREIT FFO and Adjusted FFO for the year-to-date ended September 30, 2020 include a gain of $12 million from the sale of land adjacent to The Phoenician hotel and a loss of $14 million related to inventory impairment expense recorded by our Maui timeshare joint venture, reflected through equity in (earnings) losses of affiliates.

(2) Pro rata EBITDAre of equity investments and pro rata FFO of equity investments for year-to-date ended September 30, 2021 include a realized gain of approximately $3 million related to equity securities held by one of our unconsolidated partnerships, Fifth Wall Ventures, L.P. Unrealized gains of our unconsolidated investments are not recognized in our EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDAre, NAREIT FFO or Adjusted FFO until they have been realized by the unconsolidated partnership.

FFO Measures

We present NAREIT FFO and NAREIT FFO per diluted share as non-GAAP measures of our performance in addition to our earnings per share (calculated in accordance with GAAP). We calculate NAREIT FFO per diluted share as our NAREIT FFO (defined as set forth below) for a given operating period, as adjusted for the effect of dilutive securities, divided by the number of fully diluted shares outstanding during such period, in accordance with NAREIT guidelines. Effective January 1, 2019, we adopted NAREIT’s definition of FFO included in NAREIT’s Funds From Operations White Paper – 2018 Restatement. NAREIT defines FFO as net income (calculated in accordance with GAAP) excluding depreciation and amortization related to real estate, gains and losses from the sale of certain real estate assets, gains and losses from change in control, impairment expense of certain real estate assets and investments and adjustments for consolidated partially-owned entities and unconsolidated affiliates. Adjustments for consolidated partially-owned entities and unconsolidated affiliates are calculated to reflect our pro rata share of the FFO of those entities on the same basis.

We also present Adjusted FFO per diluted share when evaluating our performance because management believes that the exclusion of certain additional items described below provides useful supplemental information to investors regarding our ongoing operating performance. Management historically has made the adjustments detailed below in evaluating our performance, in our annual budget process and for our compensation programs. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted FFO per diluted share, when combined with both the primary GAAP presentation of diluted earnings per share and FFO per diluted share as defined by NAREIT, provides useful supplemental information that is beneficial to an investor’s understanding of our operating performance. We adjust NAREIT FFO per diluted share for the following items, which may occur in any period, and refer to this measure as Adjusted FFO per diluted share:

Gains and Losses on the Extinguishment of Debt – We exclude the effect of finance charges and premiums associated with the extinguishment of debt, including the acceleration of the write-off of deferred financing costs from the original issuance of the debt being redeemed or retired and incremental interest expense incurred during

41


 

the refinancing period. We also exclude the gains on debt repurchases and the original issuance costs associated with the retirement of preferred stock. We believe that these items are not reflective of our ongoing finance costs.
Acquisition Costs – Under GAAP, costs associated with completed property acquisitions that are considered business combinations are expensed in the year incurred. We exclude the effect of these costs because we believe they are not reflective of the ongoing performance of the Company.
Litigation Gains and Losses – We exclude the effect of gains or losses associated with litigation recorded under GAAP that we consider outside the ordinary course of business. We believe that including these items is not consistent with our ongoing operating performance.
Severance Expense – In certain circumstances, we will add back hotel-level severance expenses when we do not believe that such expenses are reflective of the ongoing operation of our properties. Situations that would result in a severance add-back include, but are not limited to, (i) costs incurred as part of a broad-based reconfiguration of the operating model with the specific hotel operator for a portfolio of hotels and (ii) costs incurred at a specific hotel due to a broad-based and significant reconfiguration of a hotel and/or its workforce. We do not add back corporate-level severance costs or severance costs at an individual hotel that we consider to be incurred in the normal course of business.

In unusual circumstances, we also may adjust NAREIT FFO for gains or losses that management believes are not representative of our current operating performance. For example, in 2017, as a result of the reduction of the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, we remeasured our domestic deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2017 and recorded a one-time adjustment to reduce our deferred tax assets and to increase the provision for income taxes by approximately $11 million. We do not consider this adjustment to be reflective of our on-going operating performance and, therefore, we excluded this item from Adjusted FFO.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the differences between our non-GAAP financial measures, NAREIT FFO and Adjusted FFO (separately and on a per diluted share basis), and net income (loss), the financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP that we consider most directly comparable:

Hotel Property Level Operating Results

We present certain operating results for our hotels, such as hotel revenues, expenses, food and beverage profit, and EBITDA (and the related margins), on a hotel-level pro forma basis as supplemental information for our investors. Our hotel results reflect the operating results of our hotels as discussed in “All Owned Hotel Pro Forma Operating Statistics and Results” above. We present all owned hotel pro forma EBITDA to help us and our investors evaluate the ongoing operating performance of our hotels after removing the impact of our capital structure (primarily interest expense) and our asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization expense). Corporate-level costs and expenses also are removed to arrive at property-level results. We believe these property-level results provide investors with supplemental information about the ongoing operating performance of our hotels. All owned hotel pro forma results are presented both by location and for our properties in the aggregate. While severance expense is not uncommon at the individual property level in the normal course of business, we eliminate from our hotel level operating results severance costs related to broad-based and significant property-level reconfiguration that is not considered to be within the normal course of business, as we believe this elimination provides useful supplemental information that is beneficial to an investor’s understanding of our ongoing operating

43


 

performance. We also eliminate depreciation and amortization expense because, even though depreciation and amortization expense are property-level expenses, these non-cash expenses, which are based on historical cost accounting for real estate assets, implicitly assume that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. As noted earlier, because real estate values historically have risen or fallen with market conditions, many real estate industry investors have considered presentation of historical cost accounting for operating results to be insufficient.

Because of the elimination of corporate-level costs and expenses, gains or losses on disposition, certain severance expenses and depreciation and amortization expense, the hotel operating results we present do not represent our total revenues, expenses, operating profit or net income and should not be used to evaluate our performance as a whole. Management compensates for these limitations by separately considering the impact of these excluded items to the extent they are material to operating decisions or assessments of our operating performance. Our consolidated statements of operations include such amounts, all of which should be considered by investors when evaluating our performance.

While management believes that presentation of all owned hotel results is a supplemental measure that provides useful information in evaluating our ongoing performance, this measure is not used to allocate resources or to assess the operating performance of each of our hotels, as these decisions are based on data for individual hotels and are not based on all owned hotel results in the aggregate. For these reasons, we believe all owned hotel operating results, when combined with the presentation of GAAP operating profit, revenues and expenses, provide useful information to investors and management.

The following tables present certain operating results and statistics for our hotels for the periods presented herein and a reconciliation of the differences between all owned hotel pro forma EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, and net income (loss), the financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP that we consider most directly comparable. Similar reconciliations of the differences between (i) hotel revenues and (ii) our revenues as calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP (each of which is used in the applicable margin calculation), and between (iii) hotel expenses and (iv) operating costs and expenses as calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, also are included in the reconciliation:

(1) Profit margins are calculated by dividing the applicable operating profit by the related revenue amount. GAAP profit margins are calculated using amounts presented in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. Hotel margins are calculated using amounts presented in the above tables.

(2) Pro forma adjustments represent the following items: (i) the elimination of results of operations of hotels sold as of September 30, 2021, which operations are included in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations as continuing operations and (ii) the addition of results for periods prior to our ownership for hotels acquired as of September 30, 2021. All Owned Hotel Pro Forma results also includes the results of our leased office buildings and other non-hotel revenue and expense items.

(3) All Owned Hotel Pro Forma EBITDA excludes the Laura Hotel, the luxury downtown Houston hotel acquired in July 2021, as it was closed for the entirety of the quarter. Additionally, the AC Hotel Scottsdale North is a new development hotel that opened in January 2021. Therefore, there were no operations for the hotel prior to January 2021 and no adjustments were made for pro forma results of the hotel for periods prior to its opening. Results for the five hotels sold subsequent to quarter end are included, as they were owned for the entirety of the periods presented.

 

 

 

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

All information in this section applies to Host Inc. and Host L.P.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, 55% of our outstanding debt bore interest at fixed rates. To manage interest rate risk applicable to our debt, we may enter into interest rate swaps or caps. The interest rate derivatives into which we enter are strictly to hedge interest rate risk, and are not for trading purposes. The percentages above reflect the effect of any derivatives into which we have entered to manage interest rate risk. No interest rate hedging transactions were entered into during the first three quarters of 2021. See Item 7A of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10–K.

Exchange Rate Sensitivity

As we have operations outside of the United States (specifically, the ownership of hotels in Brazil and Canada and a minority investment in a joint venture in India), currency exchange risks arise in the normal course of our business. To manage the currency exchange risk, we may enter into forward or option contracts or hedge our investment through the issuance of foreign currency denominated debt. During the third quarter of 2021, one foreign currency forward purchase contract matured, with a total notional amount of CAD 25 million ($20 million), and we paid $0.2 million in the aggregate upon settlement. In replacement of the maturing contract, we entered into a new foreign currency forward purchase contract, with a total notional amount of CAD 25 million ($20 million), that matures in February 2022. We have two other foreign currency forward purchase contracts, with a total notional amount of CAD 74 million ($59 million), that mature in March 2022. The foreign currency exchange agreements into which we have entered are strictly to hedge foreign currency risk and not for trading purposes.

See Item 7A of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Item 3 of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first and second quarters of 2021.
