MHI Hospitality Corporation Reports Financial Results for Third Quarter 2009
WILLIAMSBURG, Va., Oct. 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- MHI Hospitality Corporation (Nasdaq: MDH) ("the Company"), a self-advised lodging real estate investment trust (REIT), today reported its consolidated results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2009.
HIGHLIGHTS:
-- Total revenue increased approximately $0.8 million or 4.6% over third
quarter 2008 to approximately $18.0 million.
-- Total room revenue increased approximately $0.7 million or 6.0 % over
third quarter 2008 to approximately $12.8 million.
-- Adjusted operating income increased approximately $0.6 million or 17.7%
over third quarter 2008 to approximately $3.7 million.
-- Funds from Operations ("FFO") increased approximately $0.1 million or
13.3% over third quarter 2008 to approximately $1.3 million or $0.12 per
share for third quarter 2009.
-- Total assets of approximately $217.9 million at September 30, 2009,
versus approximately $203.2 million at September 30, 2008.
Andrew M. Sims, President and CEO of MHI Hospitality Corporation, commented, "Our principal focus right now is the aggressive ramp-up of our repositioned portfolio. We are capturing market share with these efforts, as demonstrated by this quarter's results. We are also working to strengthen our financial position. We recently completed the formation of an asset management group specializing in nonperforming hotel properties. We believe this aligned new business initiative will create a valuable fee income stream and position us favorably in terms of market knowledge and future opportunities."
Sims continued, "Although market conditions remain challenging, the asset turnaround strategy that we have successfully implemented since 2005 is now delivering meaningful results that distinguish us from our peer group."
Operating Results
The Company reported consolidated total revenue of approximately $18.0 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009, an increase of 4.6% over the three-month period ended September 30, 2008. The Company had adjusted operating income for the same period of approximately $3.7 million, an increase of approximately $0.6 million or 17.7% as compared to adjusted operating income of approximately $3.1 million for the third quarter of 2008. For the third quarter, the Company also reported a consolidated net loss of approximately $0.7 million, or $0.10 per share, as compared to a consolidated net loss of approximately $0.5 million, or $0.08 per share, for the comparable 2008 period. During the third quarter, FFO was approximately $1.3 million, or $0.12 per share, compared to approximately $1.1 million, or $0.11 per share, for the third quarter of 2008, an increase of 13.3%. During the quarter, the Company reported an unrealized gain on the value of its interest rate swap of approximately $0.3 million as compared to an unrealized gain on the value of its interest rate swap of approximately $0.1 million for the third quarter of 2008. The interest rate swap is required by the Company's lenders on its revolving credit facility.
Adjusted operating income (and the related margin) and FFO are non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company defines adjusted operating income as net operating income excluding depreciation and amortization, corporate general and administrative expenses, lease revenue and related expenses as well as other fee income not related to the Company's wholly-owned hotel properties. The Company defines FFO as net income excluding extraordinary items, depreciation and minority interest. Management believes FFO is a key measure of a REIT's performance and should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income and cash flow as a measure of the Company's operating performance. Reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures are included in the accompanying financial tables.
Portfolio Operating Performance
The following tables illustrate the key operating metrics for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 for the Company's wholly-owned properties during each respective reporting period ("consolidated" properties) as well as the eight wholly-owned properties in the portfolio that were not under development and were under the Company's control during the three months ended September 30, 2009 and the corresponding period in 2008 ("same-store" properties). Accordingly, the same-store data does not reflect the performance of the Crowne Plaza Tampa Westshore, which opened in March 2009. The tables also exclude performance data for the Crowne Plaza Hollywood Beach Resort, which was acquired through a joint venture in August 2007 and in which the Company has a 25.0% indirect interest.

Accordingly, the same-store data does not reflect the performance of the Sheraton Louisville Riverside, which opened in May 2008; the Crowne Plaza Hampton Marina, which the Company purchased in April 2008, or the Crowne Plaza Tampa Westshore, which opened in March 2009.

Portfolio Update
As of September 30, 2009, total assets were approximately $217.9 million, including approximately $189.8 million of net investment in hotel properties plus approximately $9.8 million for the Company's joint venture investment in the Crowne Plaza Hollywood Beach Resort.
-- The Company is executing a relaunch with the Holiday Inn franchise at
its Raleigh, North Carolina property, which it expects to substantially
complete by year-end 2009.
-- Ramp-up efforts including a variety of sales and marketing tactics are
on track at almost half of the Company's wholly-owned hotel properties,
including the Crowne Plaza Tampa Westshore, the Sheraton Louisville
Riverside, the Hilton Savannah DeSoto and the Company's newest property,
the Crowne Plaza Hampton Marina.
Balance Sheet/Liquidity
At September 30, 2009, the Company had approximately $5.3 million of available cash and cash equivalents, of which approximately $0.8 million is reserved for capital improvements and certain other expenses. The Company has approximately $78.7 million outstanding on its $80.0 million revolving line of credit, which had been deployed primarily to fund the acquisition and renovation of the Sheraton Louisville Riverside Hotel, the Company's equity contribution to its joint venture with The Carlyle Group for the purchase of the Crowne Plaza Hollywood Beach Resort, as well as the acquisitions of the Tampa, Florida and Hampton, Virginia hotel properties.
The Company has no debt maturing before May 2011. The loans coming due at that time are a combination of variable and fixed rate debt carrying favorable terms.
Dividend
As previously announced, the most recent amendment to the credit agreement entered into in May 2009 permits the Company to pay in any given fiscal year a dividend in an amount minimally necessary in order to preserve cash while maintaining the Company's REIT status, provided that no dividend may be paid during the first three quarters of such fiscal year. The Company anticipates the amount of such a dividend will remain at 90% of taxable income. If certain liquidity thresholds and other conditions are met the Company may be able to declare and pay additional cash dividends in any fiscal year. Any future changes to the Company's current dividend policy will need to be in compliance with restrictions on the payment of cash dividends as set forth in the referenced amendment to the credit agreement.
Asset Management Group
During the third quarter 2009, the Company formed a separate subsidiary, MHI Asset Recovery, LLC, to pursue asset management assignments from special servicers and other entities involved in distressed hotel loans and workouts. As asset manager, the Company will provide asset management services including, but not limited to, property management, receiver services, litigation and contract support, franchise selection, construction management, value optimization, and project management on a fee-for-service basis.
Outlook and Market Trends
In light of ongoing unpredictable macro-economic and hospitality market conditions and their potential impact on the Company's markets and customer base, management has elected to suspend providing guidance regarding projected financial performance for the near term.
Earnings Call/Webcast
The Company will conduct its third quarter conference call for investors and other interested parties at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time (ET) on Wednesday, October 28, 2009. The conference call will be accessible by telephone and through the Internet. Interested individuals are invited to listen to the call by telephone at 800-860-2442.

===== ===== ===== =====
Industry analysts and investors use Funds from Operations, FFO, as a supplemental operating performance measure of an equity REIT. FFO is calculated in accordance with the definition that was adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, NAREIT. FFO, as defined by NAREIT, represents net income or loss determined in accordance with GAAP, excluding extraordinary items as defined under GAAP and gains or losses from sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets, plus certain non-cash items such as real estate asset depreciation and amortization, and after adjustment for any noncontrolling interest from unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many investors and analysts have considered the presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by itself. Thus, NAREIT created FFO as a supplemental measure of REIT operating performance that excludes historical cost depreciation, among other items, from GAAP net income. Management believes that the use of FFO, combined with the required GAAP presentations, has improved the understanding of the operating results of REITs among the investing public and made comparisons of REIT operating results more meaningful. Management considers FFO to be a useful measure of adjusted net income (loss) for reviewing comparative operating and financial performance because we believe FFO is most directly comparable to net income (loss), which remains the primary measure of performance, because by excluding gains or losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets and excluding real estate asset depreciation and amortization, FFO assists in comparing the operating performance of a company's real estate between periods or as compared to different companies. Although FFO is intended to be a REIT industry standard, other companies may not calculate FFO in the same manner as we do, and investors should not assume that FFO as reported by us is comparable to FFO as reported by other REITs.

========== ========== =========== ===========
We provide adjusted operating income as supplemental information for investors. We eliminate corporate-level costs and expenses to arrive at property-level results because we believe property-level results provide investors with supplemental information into the ongoing operating performance of our hotels. We eliminate depreciation and amortization because, even though depreciation and amortization 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 have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors have considered presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves.
As a result of the elimination of corporate-level costs and expenses, depreciation and amortization, net lease income as well as other fee income not related to our wholly-owned hotel properties, the adjusted operating income we present 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 or our operating performance. Our consolidated statements of operations include such amounts, all of which should be considered by investors when evaluating our performance.
We also believe that providing adjusted operating income provides investors and management with useful information for evaluating the period-to-period performance of our hotels and facilitates comparisons with other hotels REITS and hotel owners.
