These dispositions are expected to result in an improvement to overall portfolio asset quality with a pro forma increase in RevPAR, NOI margin and EBITDA per hotel.

As of the date of this news release, AHIP completed the dispositions of 3 hotel properties for total gross proceeds of $41.2 million in 2025, and AHIP has 8 hotel properties under purchase and sales agreements for estimated total gross proceeds of $32.3 million.

Dispositions completed and under contract in 2024 and 2025 have a combined Cap Rate ⁽¹⁾ of 7.0%, demonstrating value beyond AHIP’s current trading levels on its remaining assets. As a result of our disposition and refinancing efforts, AHIP will have no debt maturing until the fourth quarter of 2026. We will continue to monitor macroeconomic conditions and operating performance, while considering further strategic opportunities to deliver value to unitholders over the long term.”

2024 REVIEW

FINANCIAL AND OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS

For the year ended December 31, 2024, ADR increased 2.3% to $134, and occupancy increased by 220 bps to 70.9%. Overall, improved ADR and occupancy resulted in an increase of 5.6% in RevPAR to $95, compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. This result is attributable to higher demand for extended stay and select service properties, as well as the disposition of hotel properties with lower-than-average portfolio RevPAR.

NOI and normalized NOI ⁽¹⁾ were $73.4 million and $73.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, decreases of 11.9% and 15.0%, respectively, compared to NOI and normalized NOI of $83.4 million and $86.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease in NOI and normalized NOI was primarily due to the disposition of the 16 hotel properties completed in 2024.

NOI margin was 28.6% in the current year, a decrease of 110 bps compared to 29.7% for the prior year. The decrease in NOI margin was due to higher operating expenses as a result of general cost inflation, increased salaries and repair and maintenance expenses. Although certain operating expenses are expected to remain a challenge in 2025, the year-over-year NOI margin decline has improved to 110 bps in 2024 from 200 bps in 2023.

AHIP completed its property insurance renewal effective June 1, 2024, with a decrease in premiums compared to the prior period ended May 31, 2024. On an annualized basis, the decrease from the prior period is approximately $1.6 million, which will be recognized in earnings over a twelve-month period.

Diluted FFO per unit and normalized diluted FFO per unit for the year ended December 31, 2024, were $0.21 and $0.19, respectively, compared to diluted FFO per unit of $0.48 and normalized diluted FFO per unit of $0.36 for the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease in diluted FFO per unit and normalized diluted FFO per unit was mainly due to lower NOI and higher financing costs, partially offset by lower corporate and administrative expenses in the current year.

SAME PROPERTY KPIs

The following table summarizes key performance indicators (“KPIs”) for the portfolio for the five most recent quarters with a comparison to the same period in the prior year on a same-property basis.

KPIs	Q4 2024	Q3 2024	Q2 2024	Q1 2024	Q4 2023
ADR	$131	$138	$139	$135	$130
Change compared to same period in prior year - bps increase/(decrease)	0.8%	1.1%	1.9%	(1.0%)	(0.2%)
Occupancy	69.8%	74.2%	76.5%	66.8%	67.4%
Change compared to same period in prior year - bps increase/(decrease)	240	84	135	105	(84)
RevPAR	$92	$102	$106	$90	87
Change compared to same period in prior year - bps increase/(decrease)	5.7%	2.3%	3.8%	0.5%	(1.4%)
NOI	$13,272	$17,580	$18,530	$13,195	$12,779
Change compared to same period in prior year - bps increase/(decrease)	3.9%	1.2%	0.9%	(3.9%)	(19.5%)
NOI Margin	26.6%	32.0%	34.1%	28.3%	26.9%
Change compared to same period in prior year - bps increase/(decrease)	(30)	(34)	(89)	(195)	(627)

In the fourth quarter of 2024, same property ADR was $131, an increase of 0.8% compared to the same period in the prior year. Same property occupancy increased by 240 bps to 69.8% in the current quarter, compared to the same period of 2023. The increase in ADR and occupancy is primarily attributable to higher demand for extended stay and select service properties. Overall, the improved ADR and occupancy contributed to an increase of 5.7% in RevPAR.

Same property NOI increased 3.9% and same property NOI margin decreased by 30 bps in the current quarter, compared to the same period of 2023. The increase in same property NOI was mainly due to improved performance for hotels disrupted in 2023 by the weather-related damage in December 2022, and higher demand for extended stay and select service properties. The decrease in NOI margin was due to higher operating expenses as a result of general cost inflation, increased salaries and repair and maintenance expenses.

LEVERAGE AND LIQUIDITY

KPIs	Q4 2024	Q3 2024	Q2 2024	Q1 2024	Q4 2023
		Restated	Restated	Restated	Restated
Debt-to-GBV	45.9%	50.0%	52.2%	52.4%	52.0%
Debt-to-EBITDA	8.0x	9.2x	9.7x	9.6x	10.5x

Debt to gross book value was 45.9% as at December 31, 2024, a decrease of 610 bps compared to 52.0% as at December 31, 2023. Debt to EBITDA as at December 31, 2024 was 8.0x, a decrease of 2.5x compared to December 31, 2023. The improvement in debt to gross book value and debt to EBITDA was due to the use of net proceeds from the completed dispositions to pay down CMBS mortgage debt as well as the term loans governed by the Sixth Amendment (defined below).

As at December 31, 2024, AHIP had $42.9 million in available liquidity, compared to $27.8 million as at December 31, 2023. The available liquidity as at December 31, 2024 of $42.9 million was comprised of an unrestricted cash balance of $27.9 million and borrowing availability of $15.0 million under the revolving credit facility. AHIP had an additional restricted cash balance of $24.7 million as at December 31, 2024. As at March 28, 2025, AHIP had an unrestricted cash balance of approximately $13.1 million and a restricted cash balance of approximately $29.1 million.

NON-CASH IMPAIRMENT CHARGES

For the three months ended December 31, 2024, the Company recognized non-cash impairment charges of $21.2 million related to 15 hotel properties, and impairment reversal charges of $1.6 million related to 3 hotel properties. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, the Company recognized non-cash impairment charges of $32.6 million related to 21 hotel properties, and impairment reversal charges of $1.6 million related to 3 hotel properties. The impaired hotels are primarily located in Kentucky, Oklahoma and Pennsylvania, and the hotels with impairment reversal charges are located in New Jersey, Texas and Maryland. AHIP completed the valuation process based on external appraisals, purchase and sales agreements, recent market transactions and internal valuations of hotel properties. The impairment charges and impairment charges reversal are primarily due to revised expectations on the timeframe for hotel properties to achieve stabilized income levels, higher operating costs, challenges with AHIP’s hotel managers’ ability to optimize cashflow, and local competition factors in select markets.

INITIATIVES TO STRENGTHEN FINANCIAL POSITION AND PRESERVE UNITHOLDER VALUE

The Board of Directors (the “Board”), together with management, have implemented a plan to strengthen AHIP’s financial position and to preserve unitholder value. Initiatives, and progress made to date, are outlined below.

EXTENSION OF CREDIT FACILITY AND TERM LOANS

On December 3, 2024, AHIP satisfied the conditions in the credit agreement governing its senior credit facility (the “Sixth Amendment”) for the extension of the maturity date for the revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility Revolver” or “RCF”) and term loans governed thereby (“Credit Facility Term Loan”), which primary conditions included: (i) reduction of the aggregate maximum facility size to $148.2 million from and after December 3, 2024; (ii) obtaining updated appraisals for the 16 hotel properties then secured by the Sixth Amendment (the “Borrowing Base Properties”) in order to determine the value of such properties for purposes of setting the maximum borrowing availability under the Sixth Amendment, which was set based on a maximum loan to value ratio of 67.5%; and (iii) compliance with the terms of the Sixth Amendment at the time of the extension, which included among other things compliance with financial covenants including payout ratio and fixed charge coverage ratio. On December 3, 2024, the balance of the Credit Facility was reduced to $133.2 million. As at December 31, 2024, the total appraised value of the 16 Borrowing Base Properties was $249.2 million, which resulted in a loan-to-value ratio of 53.4%. The balance of RCF and term loans pursuant to the Sixth Amendment was $127.7 million as of December 31, 2024, and nil as of the date of this news release, respectively.

2025 REFINANCING AND REPAYMENT OF RCF AND TERM LOANS

On January 27, 2025, AHIP completed an interest only, CMBS refinancing for five hotel properties with total gross proceeds of $43.0 million (the “CMBS Loan”). The CMBS Loan has a five-year term and bears interest at a fixed annual interest rate of 7.63%.  Four of the five hotel properties secured by the CMBS Loan were Borrowing Base Properties and the fifth hotel property was unencumbered prior to the completion of this CMBS Loan. The aggregate balance of the Credit Facility Revolver and Credit Facility Term Loan was reduced to $89.3 million as a result of the pay down following the completion of this new CMBS Loan as well as the application of a portion of the net proceeds from previously announced hotel dispositions that closed in December 2024. 

On March 7, 2025, AHIP completed an interest only, non-recourse debt refinancing and repayment in full of its Credit Facility Revolver and Credit Facility Term Loan governed by the Sixth Amendment. The initial gross loan proceeds were $85.0 million secured against 11 hotel properties, with additional advances of up to $41.0 million available, comprised of $16.3 million upon the addition of a further hotel property and up to $24.7 million for renovations and improvements to these 12 hotel properties (the “Portfolio Loan”).

AHIP used the initial net proceeds from the Portfolio Loan to fully repay the outstanding balance under the Credit Facility Revolver and Credit Facility Term Loan governed by the Sixth Amendment, and these facilities have been terminated. The initial 11 hotel properties secured by the Portfolio Loan were previously secured under the Sixth Amendment. The Portfolio Loan has an initial principal amount of $85.0 million, a two-year term with the option to extend the term for another one-year period subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, and bears interest at SOFR plus 4.65% per annum. 

On March 27, 2025, AHIP added the further hotel property to the Portfolio Loan with additional gross loan proceeds of $16.3 million. The net proceeds from this refinancing and the dispositions of the 3 hotel properties in March 2025, were used to fully repay the CMBS mortgage loan of $55.2 million secured by these 4 hotel properties.

For further details, see a copy of the agreement governing the Portfolio Loan, which has been filed under AHIP’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.com.

CMBS LOAN MATURITIES

AHIP has made significant progress with its plan to address the Company’s upcoming debt maturities. These efforts continue to improve leverage metrics.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, AHIP completed the dispositions of 16 properties for total gross proceeds of $165.2 million. These dispositions resulted in total debt repayment of $139.8 million which includes CMBS mortgage loan repayment of $84.4 million, and repayments of $55.4 million to the term loans governed by the Sixth Amendment.

To address Q3 2025 CMBS loan maturities of $30.5 million, AHIP entered into agreements in January 2025 to dispose of 8 hotel properties located in Chickasha, Oklahoma, Bethany, Oklahoma, Dubuque, Iowa, Nevada, Missouri, Mattoon, Illinois, Emporia, Kansas, and South Jacksonville, Illinois for total gross proceeds of $32.3 million. These dispositions are currently estimated to close in the second quarter of 2025.

Upon the completion of these dispositions and repayment of related CMBS mortgages loans, AHIP will not have any debt maturing until the fourth quarter of 2026.

AMENDMENT OF THE MASTER HOTEL MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT WITH REDUCED AND DEFERRED FEES

On September 30, 2023, with a retroactive effective date of July 1, 2023, AHIP entered into a third amendment to its master hotel management agreement with One Lodging Management LLC (an affiliate of Aimbridge Hospitality LLC) (the “Amendment”).

In accordance with the Amendment, the management fee on certain hotel properties has been reduced or deferred. The fees in the years 2027 through 2032 will be slightly higher to offset the fee deferral in the first three years. The cash savings in 2024 were $3.1 million, and the cumulative cash savings since the Amendment to December 31, 2024 were $5.3 million, which savings are comprised of fee reductions and fee deferrals.  

NORMAL COURSE ISSUER BID AND AUTOMATIC SECURITIES PURCHASE PLAN

In December 2024, the TSX accepted AHIP’s notice of intention to make a normal course issuer bid (the “NCIB”). The notice provides that AHIP may, during the twelve-month period commencing December 30, 2024 and ending December 29, 2025, purchase up to 7,521,189 AHIP’s Units trading under the symbols HOT.UN and HOT.U, representing 10% of the “public float” (as defined in the TSX Company Manual) as of December 19, 2024. AHIP also entered into an Automatic Securities Purchase Plan (“ASPP”) with a designated broker. The ASPP allows for the purchase of Units under the NCIB when AHIP would ordinarily not be permitted to purchase Units due to regulatory restrictions and customary self-imposed blackout periods.

AHIP believes that its Units are currently trading, or due to market volatility, may trade in a price range that does not adequately reflect their underlying value based on AHIP’s assets, business prospects and financial position. Accordingly, depending upon future price movements and other factors, AHIP may purchase outstanding Units from time to time, provided that the repurchase of Units at such market prices continue to be an appropriate use of AHIP’s resources and will benefit remaining unitholders by increasing their proportionate equity interest in AHIP.

AHIP’s strategic investor HCI-BGO Victora JB LP (the “Investor”), a joint venture limited partnership of BentallGreenOak Real Estate Advisors LP and Highgate Capital Investments, LP, provided its consent to the NCIB under the terms of the Investor Rights Agreement between AHIP, the Investor and certain of their respective affiliates, subject to the aggregate purchase price of the Units acquired under the NCIB not exceeding CAD$5.0 million.

As of the date of this news release, AHIP had purchased 1,301,832 units for gross proceeds of CDN$0.9 million which results in an average purchase price of CDN$0.69. All of these 1,301,832 units have been cancelled and are no longer outstanding.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

DISPUTE WITH AIMBRIDGE

On July 19, 2024, AHIP announced that AHIP and certain of its subsidiaries are in a dispute with hotel manager ONE Lodging Holdings LLC, itself a subsidiary of Aimbridge Hospitality, and various of its own subsidiaries (collectively, “Aimbridge”) related to Aimbridge’s mismanagement of AHIP’s hotel portfolio.

Earlier in July 2024, AHIP delivered a detailed notice of default (the “Default Notice”) to Aimbridge providing notice that Aimbridge is in material default of the Master Hotel Management Agreement dated February 20, 2013, as amended (the “Master HMA”) and the individual hotel management agreements made thereunder (the “Individual HMAs”, and together with the Master HMA, the “HMAs”).

AHIP also delivered a notice of appointment to Aimbridge referring to the matters set forth in the Default Notice to an independent expert for a determination that Aimbridge is in default of the Master HMA and confirming that AHIP can terminate the HMAs and recover damages.

On July 18, 2024, AHIP received a notice of civil claim (the “Claim”) filed by Aimbridge in the Supreme Court of British Columbia. Aimbridge claimed, amongst other things, that the matters identified in the appointment notice must be resolved by the courts of British Columbia and not by the independent expert. AHIP opposed the Claim and subsequently brought an application to stay the Claim in favor of arbitration, which Aimbridge opposed and brought a cross application seeking interlocutory relief prohibiting AHIP from proceeding with arbitration.

In December 2024, the Supreme Court of British Columbia dismissed AHIP’s application to stay the Claim and granted Aimbridge an interlocutory (interim) injunction preventing AHIP from taking any steps to advance the dispute initiated by AHIP under arbitration with the independent expert.

Following the court’s decision, AHIP filed a response to the Claim and delivered a counterclaim to Aimbridge in the Supreme Court of British Columbia in January 2025 seeking a declaration that Aimbridge is in material default of the HMAs and that the HMAs were, or are, terminated as well as damages and other monetary awards.

Notwithstanding the dispute, AHIP’s entire portfolio of premium branded, select-service hotels continue to be in operation and AHIP remains focused on creating long-term value for its Unitholders.

AHIP hotels operate under brands affiliated with Marriott, Hilton, IHG and Choice Hotels through license agreements. AHIP’s long-term objectives are to increase the value of its hotel properties through operating excellence, active asset management and value-adding capital expenditures and increase unitholder value and distributions to unitholders. More information is available at www.ahipreit.com.

NON-IFRS AND OTHER FINANCIAL MEASURES

Management believes the following non-IFRS financial measures, non-IFRS ratios, capital management measures and supplementary financial measures are relevant measures to monitor and evaluate AHIP’s financial and operating performance. These measures and ratios do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. These measures and ratios are included to provide investors and management additional information and alternative methods for assessing AHIP’s financial and operating results and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures prepared in accordance with IFRS.

NON-IFRS FINANCIAL MEASURES:

FFO: FFO measures operating performance and is calculated in accordance with Real Property Association of Canada’s (“REALPAC”) definition. FFO – basic is calculated by adjusting income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) for depreciation and amortization, gain or loss on disposal of property, IFRIC 21 property taxes, fair value gain or loss, impairment of property, deferred income tax, and other applicable items. FFO – diluted is calculated as FFO – basic plus the interest, accretion, and amortization on convertible debentures if convertible debentures are dilutive. The most comparable IFRS measure to FFO is income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss), for which a reconciliation is provided in this news release.

AFFO: AFFO is defined as a recurring economic earnings measure and calculated in accordance with REALPAC’s definition. AFFO – basic is calculated as FFO – basic less maintenance capital expenditures. AFFO – diluted is calculated as FFO – diluted less maintenance capital expenditures. The most comparable IFRS measure to AFFO is income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss), for which a reconciliation is provided in this news release.

Normalized FFO: calculated as FFO adjusting for non-recurring items. For the three months ended December 31, 2024, normalized FFO is calculated as FFO excluding the non-recurring property damage insurance adjustment of $0.1 million recorded in the same period. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, normalized FFO is calculated as FFO excluding the non-recurring property damage insurance proceeds of $1.5 million recorded in the same period. For the three months ended December 31, 2023, normalized FFO is calculated as FFO adding back the $1.7 million non-recurring insurance proceeds adjustment for weather-related damage at several hotel properties in late December 2022. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, normalized FFO is calculated as FFO excluding the non-recurring insurance proceeds of $11.2 million for weather-related damage at several hotel properties in late December 2022. The most comparable IFRS measure to normalized FFO is income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss), for which a reconciliation is provided in this news release.

Normalized NOI: calculated as NOI adjusting for non-recurring items. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, normalized NOI included the non-recurring insurance proceeds of $0.5 million for business interruption claims. For the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2023, normalized NOI included $0.1 million and $3.5 million in business interruption insurance proceeds, respectively, related to the weather-related damage at several hotel properties in late December 2022. The most comparable IFRS measure to normalized NOI is NOI, for which a reconciliation is provided in this news release.

Hotel EBITDA: calculated by adjusting NOI for hotel management fees. The most comparable IFRS measure to hotel EBITDA is NOI, for which a reconciliation is provided in this news release.

EBITDA: calculated by adjusting NOI for hotel management fees and general administrative expenses. The sum of hotel management fees and general administrative expenses is equal to corporate and administrative expenses in the Financial Statements. The most comparable IFRS measure to EBITDA is NOI, for which a reconciliation is provided in this news release.

Debt: calculated as the sum of term loans and revolving credit facility, the face value of convertible debentures, unamortized portion of debt financing costs, lease liabilities and unamortized portion of mark-to-market adjustments. The most comparable IFRS measure to debt is total liabilities, for which a reconciliation is provided in this news release.

Gross book value: calculated as the sum of total assets, accumulated depreciation and impairment on property, buildings and equipment, and accumulated amortization on intangible assets. The most comparable IFRS measure to gross book value is total assets, for which a reconciliation is provided in this news release.

Interest expense: calculated by adjusting finance costs for gain/loss on debt settlement, amortization of debt financing costs, accretion of debenture liability, amortization of debenture costs, dividends on series B preferred shares and amortization of mark-to-market adjustments, accretion of management fee because interest expense excludes certain non-cash accounting items and dividends on preferred shares. The most comparable IFRS measure to interest expense is finance costs, for which a reconciliation is provided in this news release.

NON-IFRS RATIOS:

FFO per unit – basic/diluted: calculated as FFO – basic/diluted divided by weighted average number of units outstanding - basic/diluted respectively for the reporting periods.

Normalized FFO per unit – basic/diluted: calculated as normalized FFO – basic/diluted divided by weighted average number of units outstanding - basic/diluted respectively for the reporting periods.

AFFO per unit – basic/diluted: calculated as AFFO – basic/diluted divided by weighted average number of units outstanding - basic/diluted respectively for the reporting periods.

NOI margin: calculated as NOI divided by total revenue.

Hotel EBITDA margin: calculated as hotel EBITDA divided by total revenue.

EBITDA margin: calculated as EBITDA divided by total revenue.

Capitalization rate (“Cap Rate”): calculated as 2023 or 2024 annual hotel EBITDA, after adjusting for an industry standard 4% furniture, fixtures, and equipment (“FF&E”) reserve, divided by the actual and estimated gross proceeds of the asset dispositions.

Implied capitalization rate (“implied Cap Rate”): calculated as 2023 annual hotel EBITDA, after adjusting for an industry standard 4% FF&E reserve, for the portfolio of 49 hotel properties divided by the enterprise value.

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT MEASURES:

Debt to gross book value: calculated as debt divided by gross book value. Debt to gross book value is a primary measure of capital management and leverage.

Debt to EBITDA: calculated as debt divided by the trailing twelve months (“TTM”) EBITDA. Debt to EBITDA measures the amount of income generated and available to pay down debt before covering interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization expenses.

Interest coverage ratio: calculated as TTM EBITDA divided by interest expense for the trailing twelve months. The interest coverage ratio is a measure of AHIP’s ability to service the interest requirements of its outstanding debt.

SUPPLEMENTARY FINANCIAL MEASURES:

Occupancy is a major driver of room revenue as well as food and beverage revenues. Fluctuations in occupancy are normally accompanied by fluctuations in most categories of variable hotel operating expenses, including housekeeping and other labor costs. Higher ADR increases room revenue with limited impact on hotel operating expenses. Increase in RevPAR attributable to increase in occupancy may reduce EBITDA and EBITDA margins, while increase in RevPAR attributable to increase in ADR typically result in increases in EBITDA and EBITDA margins.

Occupancy: calculated as total number of hotel rooms sold divided by total number of rooms available for the reporting periods. Occupancy is a metric commonly used in the hotel industry to measure the utilization of hotels’ available capacity.

Average daily rate (“ADR”): calculated as total room revenue divided by total number of rooms sold for the reporting periods. ADR is a metric commonly used in the hotel industry to indicate the average revenue earned per occupied room in a given time period.

Revenue per available room (“RevPAR”): calculated as occupancy multiplied by ADR for the reporting periods.

Same property ADR, occupancy, RevPAR, and NOI margin: measured for properties owned by AHIP for both the current reporting periods and the same periods in 2023. In Q2 2024 and Q1 2024, the same property ADR, occupancy, RevPAR and NOI margin calculations excluded the Residence Inn Neptune and Courtyard Wall in New Jersey as these two hotels had limited availability in Q2 2023 and Q1 2023 comparative periods, due to remediation and rebuilding after the weather-related damage in late December 2022.

Enterprise value: is a supplementary financial measure and is calculated as the sum of (i) total debt obligations as reflected on the December 31, 2024 balance sheet (ii) AHIP’s market capitalization (which is calculated as the U.S. dollar closing price of the units on the TSX as of December 31, 2024, multiplied by the total number of units issued and outstanding as at such date), and (iii) face value of series C preferred shares, less (iv) the amount of cash and cash equivalents reflected on the December 31, 2024 balance sheet.
