As of March 31, 2026, the Company had $1.6 billion of total outstanding debt consisting of $182.7 million of mortgage debt and $1.4 billion outstanding under its unsecured credit facilities, excluding unamortized debt issuance costs. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had available corporate cash on hand of approximately $7.8 million, and unused borrowing capacity under its Revolving Credit Facility of approximately $558.8 million after taking into account a $2.1 million letter of credit.
The credit agreements governing the unsecured credit facilities contain customary affirmative and negative covenants and events of default. The covenants include, among others, a minimum tangible net worth, maximum debt limits, minimum interest and fixed charge coverage ratios, and restrictions on certain investments. The Company was in compliance with the applicable covenants as of March 31, 2026.
See Note 4, titled “Debt” in the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto, appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for details regarding the Company’s debt agreements as of March 31, 2026.
The Company has a universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-285184) that was automatically effective upon filing on February 25, 2025. The Company may offer an indeterminate number or amount, as the case may be, of (1) common shares, no par value per share; (2) preferred shares, no par value per share; (3) depository shares representing the Company’s preferred shares; (4) warrants exercisable for the Company’s common shares, preferred shares or depository shares representing preferred shares; (5) rights to purchase common shares; and (6) unsecured senior or subordinate debt securities, all of which may be issued from time to time on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act.
On February 23, 2024, the Company entered into an equity distribution agreement pursuant to which the Company may sell, from time to time, up to an aggregate of $500 million of its common shares under the ATM Program. No common shares were sold under the Company’s ATM Program during the three months ended March 31, 2026 or during the year ended December 31, 2025. As of March 31, 2026, $500 million remained available for issuance under the ATM Program. The Company plans to use future net proceeds from the sale of shares under the ATM Program, or a similar successor program, for general corporate purposes, which may include, among other things, acquisitions of additional properties, the repayment of outstanding indebtedness, capital expenditures, improvement of properties in its portfolio and working capital. The Company may also use the future net proceeds to acquire another REIT or other company that invests in income-producing properties. Future offerings will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by the Company, including market conditions, the trading price of the Company’s common shares and opportunities for uses of any proceeds.
Capital Uses
The Company anticipates that cash flow from operations, availability under its Revolving Credit Facility, additional borrowings, and proceeds from hotel dispositions and equity offerings will be adequate to meet its anticipated liquidity requirements, including required distributions to shareholders, share repurchases, capital improvements, debt service, hotel acquisitions, lease commitments, and cash management activities.
Distributions
The Company generally must distribute annually at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, subject to certain adjustments and excluding any net capital gain, in order to maintain its REIT status. On March 19, 2026, the Company declared a monthly cash distribution of $0.08 per common share, paid on April 15, 2026, to shareholders of record as of March 31, 2026. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company paid distributions of $0.24 per common share for a total of $56.6 million. Subsequent to quarter end, on April 20, 2026, the Company declared a monthly cash distribution of $0.08 per common share, payable on May 15, 2026, to shareholders of record as of April 30, 2026.
The Company’s current annual distribution rate, payable monthly, is $0.96 per common share. As it has done historically, due to seasonality, the Company may use its Revolving Credit Facility to maintain the consistency of the monthly distribution rate, taking into consideration any acquisitions, dispositions, capital improvements and economic cycles. While management currently expects monthly cash distributions to continue at $0.08 per common share, any distribution will be subject to approval of the Company’s Board of Directors, and there can be no assurance of the classification, timing or duration of distributions at any particular distribution rate. The Board of Directors monitors the Company’s distribution rate relative to the performance of its hotels on an ongoing basis and may make adjustments to the distribution rate as determined to be prudent in relation to other cash requirements of the Company or to the extent required to maintain the Company’s REIT status. If cash flows from operations and the Revolving Credit Facility are not adequate to meet liquidity requirements, the Company may utilize additional financing sources to make distributions. Although the Company has relatively low levels of debt, there can be no assurance it will be successful with this strategy, and it may need to reduce its distributions to minimum levels required to maintain its qualification as a REIT. If the Company were unable to extend its maturing debt in future periods or if it were to default on its debt, it may be unable to make distributions.
