NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
Note 1: Organization
Park Hotels & Resorts Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company” and, exclusive of any subsidiaries, “Park Parent”) is a Delaware corporation that owns a portfolio of premium-branded hotels and resorts primarily located in prime city center and resort locations. On January 3, 2017, Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc. (“Hilton”) completed the spin-off of a portfolio of premium hotels and resorts that established Park Hotels & Resorts Inc. as an independent, publicly traded company. On September 18, 2019, we acquired Chesapeake Lodging Trust.
We are a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for United States (“U.S.”) federal income tax purposes. We have been organized and operated, and we expect to continue to be organized and operate, in a manner to qualify as a REIT. To qualify as a REIT, we must satisfy requirements related to, among other things, the real estate qualification of sources of our income, the real estate composition and values of our assets, the amounts we distribute to our stockholders annually and the diversity of ownership of our stock. From the date of our spin-off from Hilton, Park Intermediate Holdings LLC (our “Operating Company”), directly or indirectly, has held all our assets and has conducted all of our operations. We are structured as a traditional umbrella partnership REIT (“UPREIT”). Park Parent is the managing member of our Operating Company and PK Domestic REIT Inc., a direct subsidiary of Park Parent, is a member of our Operating Company. We may, in the future, issue interests in (or from) our Operating Company in connection with acquiring hotels, financings, issuance of equity compensation or other purposes.
Note 2: Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
Principles of Consolidation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect our financial position, results of operations and cash flows, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). We have condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring items, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim periods. All significant intercompany transactions and balances within the financial statements have been eliminated.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2024 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 20, 2025.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of full year performance.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on February 20, 2025, contains a discussion of significant accounting policies. There have been no significant changes to our significant accounting policies since December 31, 2024.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-09 (“ASU 2023-09”), Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which enhances income tax disclosures, including disclosures about the existing rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. We expect to adopt ASU 2023-09 when the requirements become effective for the year-ended December 31, 2025. ASU 2023-09 is required to be adopted on a prospective basis, but retrospective adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the effect that ASU 2023-09 will have on our consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03 (“ASU 2024-03”), Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), which adds guidance on providing qualitative and quantitative disclosures about certain costs and expenses. Although early adoption is permitted, we expect to adopt ASU 2024-03 on a prospective basis when the requirements become effective for the year ended December 31, 2027. We are currently evaluating the effect that ASU 2024-03 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

Depreciation of property and equipment was $69 million and $65 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we recognized an impairment loss of approximately $70 million related to one of our hotels and our inability to recover the carrying value of the asset. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recognized an impairment loss of approximately $5 million related to one of our hotels subject to a ground lease and our inability to recover the carrying value of the asset over the remaining lease term. Refer to Note 6: “Fair Value Measurements” for additional information.
Note 4: Consolidated Variable Interest Entities (“VIEs”) and Investments in Affiliates
Consolidated VIEs
We consolidate VIEs that own two hotels. We are the primary beneficiary of these VIEs as we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect their economic performance. Additionally, we have the obligation to absorb their losses and the right to receive benefits that could be significant to them. The assets of our VIEs are only

(1)In October 2016, we entered into a $1.275 billion CMBS loan secured by the Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort (“HHV Mortgage Loan”).
(2)Assumes the exercise of all extensions that are exercisable solely at our option. The mortgage loan for Hilton Denver City Center matures in 2042 but became callable by the lender in August 2022 with six months of notice. As of March 31, 2025, we did not receive notice from the lender.
(3)Our revolving credit facility (“Revolver”) permits one or more standby letters of credit, up to a maximum aggregate outstanding balance of $50 million, to be issued on behalf of us. As of March 31, 2025, we had $950 million of available capacity under our Revolver and no outstanding letters of credit.

(4)The secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) includes a credit spread adjustment of 0.1 %. As of March 31, 2025, our all-in interest rate for borrowing under the 2024 Term Loan was 6.37 %.
(5)In May 2024, the Company, our Operating Company, and PK Domestic Property LLC, an indirect subsidiary of the Company (“PK Domestic”), amended our existing credit agreement to include a new $200 million senior unsecured term loan (“2024 Term Loan”).
Debt Maturities
The contractual maturities of our debt, excluding the $725 million non-recourse CMBS loan (“SF Mortgage Loan”) secured by two of our San Francisco hotels – the 1,921-room Hilton San Francisco Union Square and the 1,024-room Parc 55 San Francisco – a Hilton Hotel (collectively, the “Hilton San Francisco Hotels”) and assuming the exercise of all extensions that are exercisable solely at our option, as of March 31, 2025 were:

Debt Associated with Hotels in Receivership
In June 2023, we ceased making debt service payments towards the SF Mortgage Loan secured by the Hilton San Francisco Hotels, which was due November 2023, and we received a notice of default from the servicer. The stated rate on the loan is 4.11 %; however, beginning June 1, 2023, the default interest rate on the loan is 7.11 %. Additionally, beginning June 1, 2023, the loan accrues a monthly late payment administrative fee of 3 % of the monthly amount due. In October 2023, the trustee for the SF Mortgage Loan filed a lawsuit against the borrowers under the SF Mortgage Loan. In connection with the lawsuit, the court appointed a receiver to take control of the Hilton San Francisco Hotels, which serve as security for the SF Mortgage Loan, and their operations, and thus, we have no further economic interest in the operations of the hotels. The receiver operates and has authority over the hotels. The receiver also had the ability to sell the hotels until March 31, 2025; however, prior to the deadline, the receiver requested an extension to May 30, 2025 in order to sell the hotels to a specified buyer. The court granted the extension with an additional one-time extension option not to exceed 60 days. If the hotels are not sold to the specified buyer by the amended predetermined period, the court order contemplates that the receivership will end with a non-judicial foreclosure as soon as permissible under California law.
We derecognized the Hilton San Francisco Hotels from our consolidated balance sheet in October 2023 when the receiver took control of the hotels. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, we recognized a gain of $16 million and $14 million, respectively, which is included in gain on derecognition of assets in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. The gain represents the accrued interest expense associated with the default of the SF Mortgage Loan, which results in a corresponding increase of the contract asset on our condensed consolidated balance sheets as we expect to be released from this obligation upon final resolution with the lender on the SF Mortgage Loan, in exchange for the transfer of ownership of the Hilton San Francisco Hotels. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the contract asset on our condensed consolidated balance sheets was $836 million and $820 million, respectively. The SF Mortgage Loan will remain a liability until final resolution with the lender is concluded, and thus, is included in debt associated with hotels in receivership on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Note 6: Fair Value Measurements
We did not elect the fair value measurement option for our financial assets or liabilities. The fair values of our other financial instruments not included in the table below are estimated to be equal to their carrying amounts.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we recognized an impairment loss related to one of our hotels due to our inability to recover the carrying value of the asset. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recognized an impairment loss related to one of our hotels subject to a ground lease and our inability to recover the carrying value of the asset over the remaining lease term.

Note 7: Share-Based Compensation
We issue equity-based awards to our employees pursuant to the 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2017 Employee Plan”) and our non-employee directors pursuant to the 2017 Stock Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the “2017 Director Plan”), both of which are amended and restated from time to time. The 2017 Employee Plan provides that a maximum of 14,070,000 shares of our common stock may be issued, and as of March 31, 2025, 5,251,266 shares of common stock remain available for future issuance. An amendment and restatement of the 2017 Director Plan was approved by our stockholders in April 2025 to, among other changes, increase the number of shares available to be issued by 875,000 , from 950,000 to 1,825,000 . As of March 31, 2025, 130,143 shares of common stock remain available for future issuance, which excludes the 875,000 additional shares that were approved in April 2025. For both the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, we recognized $4 32 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.0 years. The total fair value of shares vested (calculated as the number of shares multiplied by the vesting date share price) for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was $11 million and $12 million, respectively.

Stock Awards
Stock awards generally vest in annual installments between and three years from each grant date. The following table provides a summary of stock awards for the three months ended March 31, 2025:

Performance Stock Units
Performance Stock Units (“PSUs”) generally vest at the end of a three-year performance period and are subject to the achievement of a market condition based on a measure of our total shareholder return relative to the total shareholder return of the companies that comprise the FTSE Nareit Lodging Resorts Index (that have a market capitalization in excess of $1 billion as of the first day of the applicable performance period). The number of PSUs that may become vested ranges from zero to 200 % of the number of PSUs granted to an employee, based on the level of achievement of the foregoing performance measure.
The following table provides a summary of PSUs for the three months ended March 31, 2025:
| Number of Shares | Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value | ||||||||||
| Unvested at January 1, 2025 | $ | ||||||||||

| Unvested at March 31, 2025 | $ | ||||||||||
The grant date fair values of the awards that are subject to the achievement of market conditions based on total shareholder return were determined using a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model with the following assumptions:
Expected volatility(1) | % | ||||
Dividend yield(2) | |||||
Risk-free rate(3) | % | ||||
| Expected term | |||||
_____________________________________
(1)Estimated using a blended approach of historical and implied volatility. Historical volatility is based on the historical movement of the Company’s stock price for a period that corresponds to the expected terms of the PSUs.
(2)Dividends are assumed to be reinvested in shares of our common stock and dividends will not be paid unless shares vest.
(3)Based on the yields of U.S. Department of Treasury instruments with similar expected terms of the PSUs at the grant date of each award.

Note 9: Business Segment Information
As of March 31, 2025, we have two operating segments, our consolidated hotels and unconsolidated hotels. Our unconsolidated hotels operating segment does not meet the definition of a reportable segment, thus our consolidated hotels operating segment is our only reportable segment. Our Chief Operating Decision Maker (the “CODM”), who is our chief executive officer, evaluates our consolidated hotels primarily based on hotel adjusted earnings (loss) before interest income and expense, taxes and depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) when deciding how to allocate resources, in making other day-to-day operating decisions and evaluating our operating performance against other companies within our industry.
Hotel Adjusted EBITDA, presented herein, is calculated as EBITDA from hotel operations, adjusted to exclude the following items that are not reflective of our ongoing operating performance or incurred in the normal course of business, and thus excluded from the CODM’s analysis:
•Gains or losses on sales of assets for both consolidated and unconsolidated investments;
•Costs associated with hotel acquisitions or dispositions expensed during the period;
•Severance expense;
•Share-based compensation expense;
•Impairment losses and casualty gains or losses; and
•Other items that we believe are not representative of our current or future operating performance.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of Park Hotels & Resorts Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”). Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements related to the effects of our decision to cease payments on the $725 million non-recourse CMBS loan (“SF Mortgage Loan”) secured by two of our San Francisco hotels – the 1,921-room Hilton San Francisco Union Square and the 1,024-room Parc 55 San Francisco – a Hilton Hotel (collectively, the “Hilton San Francisco Hotels”) and the lender’s exercise of its remedies, including placing such hotels into receivership, as well as our current expectations regarding the performance of our business, our financial results, our liquidity and capital resources, including anticipated repayment of certain of our indebtedness, the completion of capital allocation priorities, the expected repurchase of our stock, the impact from macroeconomic factors (including elevated inflation and interest rates, potential economic slowdown or a recession and geopolitical conflicts), the effects of competition, the effects of future legislation, executive action or regulations, tariffs, the expected completion of anticipated dispositions, the declaration, payment and any change in amounts of future dividends and other non-historical statements. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts, and in some cases, can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as the words “outlook,” “believes,” “expects,” “potential,” “continues,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “seeks,” “projects,” “predicts,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “anticipates”, “hopes” or the negative version of these words or other comparable words. You should not rely on forward-looking statements since they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which are, in some cases, beyond our control and which could materially affect our results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, performance or future achievements or events.
All such forward-looking statements are based on current expectations of management and therefore involve estimates and assumptions that are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed in these forward-looking statements. You should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements and we urge investors to carefully review the disclosures we make concerning risks and uncertainties in Item 1A: “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as such factors may be updated from time to time in our periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov, as well as risks, uncertainties and other factors discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Overview
We have a diverse portfolio of iconic and market-leading hotels and resorts with significant underlying real estate value. We currently have interests in 40 hotels, consisting of premium-branded hotels and resorts with approximately 25,000 rooms, of which over 87% are luxury and upper upscale (as defined by Smith Travel Research) and are located in prime U.S. markets and its territories. Our high-quality portfolio currently includes hotels mostly in major urban and convention areas, such as New York City, Washington, D.C., Chicago, Boston, New Orleans and Denver; and premier resorts in key leisure destinations, including Hawaii, Orlando, Key West and Miami Beach; as well as hotels in select airport and suburban locations.
Our objective is to be the preeminent lodging real estate investment trust (“REIT”), focused on consistently delivering superior, risk-adjusted returns to stockholders through active asset management and a thoughtful external growth strategy while maintaining a strong and flexible balance sheet. As a pure-play real estate company with direct access to capital and independent financial resources, we believe our enhanced ability to implement compelling return on investment initiatives within our portfolio represents a significant embedded growth opportunity. Finally, given our scale and investment expertise, we believe we will be able to successfully execute single-asset and portfolio acquisitions and dispositions to further enhance the value and diversification of our assets throughout the lodging cycle, including potentially taking advantage of the economies of scale that could come from consolidation in the lodging REIT industry.
We operate our business through two operating segments, our consolidated hotels and unconsolidated hotels. Our consolidated hotels operating segment is our only reportable segment. Refer to Note 9: “Business Segment Information” in
16
our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information regarding our operating segments.
Outlook
Economic disruptions, including as a result of elevated interest and inflation rates, may adversely affect our business by affecting consumer sentiment and demand for travel. Heightened uncertainty due to ongoing changes to trade policy, tax policy and disruptions to government spending has resulted in inflationary concerns and may affect the lodging industry. During the first quarter of 2025, we have relied on the performance of our hotels and active asset management to mitigate the effects of current macroeconomic uncertainty. Additionally, we continued to experience improvements in average daily rate (“ADR”), although this growth has slowed as the industry recovery has stabilized and seasonal patterns have normalized. While there can be no assurances that we will not experience further fluctuations in hotel revenues or earnings at our hotels due to inflation and other macroeconomic factors, local economic factors and demand, a potential economic slowdown or a recession and geopolitical conflicts, we are cautiously optimistic for 2025 based on expected improvements in demand trends and expected increases in city-wide events.
Key Business Metrics Used by Management
Occupancy
Occupancy represents the total number of room nights sold divided by the total number of room nights available at a hotel or group of hotels. Occupancy measures the utilization of our hotels’ available capacity. We use occupancy to gauge demand at a specific hotel or group of hotels in a given period. Occupancy levels also help us determine achievable ADR levels as demand for rooms increases or decreases.
Average Daily Rate
ADR represents rooms revenue divided by total number of room nights sold in a given period. ADR measures average room price attained by a hotel and ADR trends provide useful information concerning the pricing environment and the nature of the customer base of a hotel or group of hotels. ADR is a commonly used performance measure in the hotel industry, and we use ADR to assess pricing levels that we are able to generate by type of customer, as changes in rates have a more pronounced effect on overall revenues and incremental profitability than changes in occupancy, as described above.
Revenue per Available Room
Revenue per available room (“RevPAR”) represents rooms revenue divided by the total number of room nights available to guests for a given period. We consider RevPAR to be a meaningful indicator of our performance as it provides a metric correlated to two primary and key factors of operations at a hotel or group of hotels: occupancy and ADR. RevPAR is also a useful indicator in measuring performance over comparable periods.
Comparable Hotels Data
We present certain data for our hotels on a comparable hotel basis as supplemental information for investors. We present comparable hotel results to help us and our investors evaluate the ongoing performance of our comparable hotels. Our comparable hotels data includes results from hotels that were active and operating in our portfolio since January 1st of the previous year and excludes results from property dispositions that have occurred through March 31, 2025 and the Hilton San Francisco Hotels, which were placed into receivership at the end of October 2023.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We also evaluate the performance of our business through certain other financial measures that are not recognized under U.S. GAAP. Each of these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered by investors as supplemental measures to GAAP performance measures such as total revenues, operating profit and net (loss) income.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA, presented herein, reflects net (loss) income excluding depreciation and amortization, interest income, interest expense, income taxes and also interest income and expense, income tax and depreciation and amortization included in equity in earnings from investments in affiliates.
17
Adjusted EBITDA, presented herein, is calculated as EBITDA, further adjusted to exclude the following items that are not reflective of our ongoing operating performance or incurred in the normal course of business, and thus, excluded from management’s analysis in making day-to-day operating decisions and evaluations of our operating performance against other companies within our industry:
•Gains or losses on sales of assets for both consolidated and unconsolidated investments;
•Costs associated with hotel acquisitions or dispositions expensed during the period;
•Severance expense;
•Share-based compensation expense;
•Impairment losses and casualty gains or losses; and
•Other items that we believe are not representative of our current or future operating performance.
Hotel Adjusted EBITDA measures hotel-level results before debt service, depreciation and corporate expenses for our consolidated hotels, which excludes hotels owned by unconsolidated affiliates, and is a key measure of our profitability. We present Hotel Adjusted EBITDA to help us and our investors evaluate the ongoing operating performance of our consolidated hotels.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA are not recognized terms under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net (loss) income or other measures of financial performance or liquidity derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, our definitions of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
We believe that EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to investors about us and our financial condition and results of operations for the following reasons: (i) EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA are among the measures used by our management team to make day-to-day operating decisions and evaluate our operating performance between periods and between REITs by removing the effect of our capital structure (primarily interest expense) and asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) from our operating results; and (ii) EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties as a common performance measure to compare results or estimate valuations across companies in our industry.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered either in isolation or as a substitute for net (loss) income or other methods of analyzing our operating performance and results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
•EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our interest expense;
•EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our income tax expense;
•EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the effect on earnings or changes resulting from matters that we consider not to be indicative of our future operations; and
•other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
We do not use or present EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA as measures of our liquidity or cash flow. These measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered either in isolation or as a substitute for cash flow or other methods of analyzing our cash flows and liquidity as reported under U.S. GAAP. Because of these limitations, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as discretionary cash available to us to reinvest in the growth of our business or as measures of cash that will be available to us to meet our obligations. Some of these limitations are:
•EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
•EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our indebtedness;
•EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the cash requirements to pay our taxes;
18
•EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect historical cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; and
•although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Hotel Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements.

Nareit FFO attributable to stockholders and Adjusted FFO attributable to stockholders
We present Nareit FFO attributable to stockholders and Nareit FFO per diluted share (defined as set forth below) as non-GAAP measures of our performance. We calculate funds from (used in) operations (“FFO”) attributable to stockholders for a given operating period in accordance with standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”), as net (loss) income attributable to stockholders (calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP), excluding depreciation and amortization, gains or losses on sales of assets, impairment, and the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles, plus adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures are calculated to reflect our pro rata share of the FFO of those entities on the same basis. As noted by Nareit in its December 2018 “Nareit Funds from Operations White Paper – 2018 Restatement,” since real estate values historically have 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. For these reasons, Nareit adopted the FFO metric in order to promote an industry-wide measure of REIT operating performance. We believe Nareit FFO provides useful information to investors regarding our operating performance and can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between REITs. Our presentation may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the terms in accordance with the current Nareit definition, or that interpret the current Nareit definition differently than we do. We calculate Nareit FFO per diluted share as our Nareit FFO divided by the number of fully diluted shares outstanding during a given operating period.
19
We also present Adjusted FFO attributable to stockholders and Adjusted FFO per diluted share 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. Management historically has made the adjustments detailed below in evaluating our performance and in our annual budget process. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted FFO provides useful supplemental information that is beneficial to an investor’s complete understanding of our operating performance. We adjust Nareit FFO attributable to stockholders for the following items, which may occur in any period, and refer to this measure as Adjusted FFO attributable to stockholders:
•Costs associated with hotel acquisitions or dispositions expensed during the period;
•Severance expense;
•Share-based compensation expense;
•Casualty gains or losses; and
•Other items that we believe are not representative of our current or future operating performance.

Market-Specific Conditions
The changes in hotel revenues and operating expenses for our comparable hotels during the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 were primarily attributable to increases at our hotels in the Orlando, Key West and New Orleans markets, offset by decreases at our hotels in the Hawaii, New York and Boston markets.
Our Orlando hotels continued to benefit from the comprehensive renovation and expansion projects completed in early 2024, increasing food and beverage revenue by 9% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. The Signia by Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek benefited from an increase in group demand, resulting in increases in occupancy and ADR of 0.4 percentage points and 2.5%, respectively, and the Waldorf Astoria Orlando benefited from an increase in transient demand, resulting in increases in occupancy and ADR of 14.8 percentage points and 5.9%, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024.
The increase in the Key West market was a result of the Casa Marina Key West, Curio Collection, which continues to benefit from the hotel’s comprehensive renovation completed in 2023 and an increase in transient demand,
21
resulting in increases in occupancy and ADR of 6.8 percentage points and 3.5%, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024.
The Hilton New Orleans Riverside benefited from increased group demand driven by the Super Bowl that was held in February 2025, with ADR increasing 14.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024.
These increases were offset by decreases in hotel revenues and operating expenses at our two Hawaii hotels where combined occupancy and ADR decreased 11.8 percentage points and 2.4%, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 due to decreases in group and transient demand partially related to disruption from the renovations at both hotels during the first quarter of 2025.
Additionally, the New York Hilton Midtown experienced a decline in group demand, resulting in a decline in food and beverage revenue of approximately 16% and a decrease in occupancy of 4.2 percentage points for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, our Boston hotels benefited from a $5 million grant received from a state program and our Hawaii hotels benefited from a state unemployment tax refund of approximately $4 million, both of which reduced operating expenses.

Refer to Note 6: “Fair Value Measurements” in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.
Gain on derecognition of assets
During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, we recognized a gain of $16 million and $14 million, respectively, from the accrued interest expense associated with the default of the SF Mortgage Loan, which resulted in a corresponding increase of the contract asset in our condensed consolidated balance sheets, as we expect to be released from this obligation upon final resolution with the lender.
Non-operating Income and Expenses
Interest income
Interest income decreased $2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 primarily as a result of a decrease in average cash balances.

Refer to Note 5: “Debt” in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
We seek to maintain sufficient amounts of liquidity with an appropriate balance of cash, debt and equity to provide financial flexibility. As of March 31, 2025, we had total cash and cash equivalents of $233 million and $27 million of restricted cash. Restricted cash primarily consists of cash restricted as to use by our debt agreements and reserves for capital expenditures in accordance with certain of our management agreements.
With $950 million available under our revolving credit facility (“Revolver”) and $233 million in existing cash and cash equivalents, we have sufficient liquidity to pay our debt maturities and to fund other liquidity obligations over the next 12 months and beyond. Excluding the SF Mortgage Loan for which we ceased to make debt service payments in June 2023 and is in default, and following the issuance of the 2030 Senior Notes and borrowings under the 2024 Term Loan in 2024, the proceeds from which collectively were used to repurchase or redeem all of the 2025 Senior Notes and for other general corporate purposes, we have no significant maturities until the fourth quarter of 2026. Refer to Note 5: “Debt” in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information. We may also take actions to improve our liquidity, such as the issuance of additional debt, equity or equity-linked securities, if we determine that doing so would be beneficial to us. However, there can be no assurance as to
23
the timing of any such issuance, which may be in the near term, or that any such additional financing will be completed on favorable terms, or at all.
Our known short-term liquidity requirements primarily consist of funds necessary to pay for operating expenses and other expenditures, including reimbursements to our hotel manager for payroll and related benefits, costs associated with the operation of our hotels, interest and contractually due principal payments on our outstanding indebtedness, capital expenditures for in-progress renovations and maintenance at our hotels, corporate general and administrative expenses and dividends to our stockholders. In February 2025, we declared a first quarter dividend of $0.25 per share that was paid on April 15, 2025 to stockholders of record as of March 31, 2025. In addition, we declared a second quarter dividend of $0.25 per share in April 2025 to be paid on July 15, 2025 to stockholders of record as of June 30, 2025. Many of the other expenses associated with our hotels are relatively fixed, including portions of rent expense, property taxes and insurance. Since we generally are unable to decrease these costs significantly or rapidly when demand for our hotels decreases, the resulting decline in our revenues can have a greater adverse effect on our net cash flow, margins and profits. Our long-term liquidity requirements primarily consist of funds necessary to pay for scheduled debt maturities, capital improvements at our hotels, and costs associated with potential acquisitions.
Our commitments to fund capital expenditures for renovations and maintenance at our hotels will be funded by cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash to the extent permitted by our lending agreements and cash flow from operations. We have construction contract commitments of approximately $121 million for capital expenditures at our properties, of which $40 million relates to guestroom renovations at the Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort, $30 million relates the transformative renovation at the Royal Palm South Beach Miami, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel, and $13 million relates to guestroom renovations at the Hilton Waikoloa Village. Our contracts contain clauses that allow us to cancel all or some portion of the work. Additionally, we have established reserves for capital expenditures (“FF&E reserve”) in accordance with our management and certain debt agreements. Generally, these agreements require that we fund 4% of hotel revenues into an FF&E reserve, unless such amounts have been incurred.
Our cash management objectives continue to be to maintain the availability of liquidity, minimize operational costs, make debt payments and fund our capital expenditure programs and future acquisitions. Further, we have an investment policy that is focused on the preservation of capital and maximizing the return on new and existing investments.
Stock Repurchase Program
In February 2025, our Board of Directors terminated a previous $300 million stock repurchase program that was approved in February 2023 (the “February 2023 Stock Repurchase Program”) and authorized and approved a new stock repurchase program allowing us to repurchase up to $300 million of our common stock over a two-year period ending in February 2027 (the “February 2025 Stock Repurchase Program”), subject to any applicable limitations or restrictions set forth in our credit facility and indentures related to our senior notes. Stock repurchases may be made through open market purchases, including through Rule 10b5-1 trading programs, in privately negotiated transactions, or in such other manner that would comply with applicable securities laws. The timing of any future stock repurchases and the number of shares to be repurchased will depend upon prevailing market conditions and other factors, and we may suspend the repurchase program at any time. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we repurchased approximately 1.4 million shares of our common stock under the 2023 Stock Repurchase Program and 2.1 million shares of our common stock under the 2025 Stock Repurchase Program for a total purchase price of $45 million. As of March 31, 2025, $275 million remained available for stock repurchases under the 2025 Stock Repurchase Program.
Sources and Uses of Our Cash and Cash Equivalents
The following tables summarize our net cash flows and key metrics related to our liquidity:
| Three Months Ended March 31, | |||||||||||||||||
| 2025 | 2024 | Percent Change | |||||||||||||||
| (in millions) | |||||||||||||||||
| Net cash provided by operating activities | $ | 86 | $ | 92 | (6.5) | % | |||||||||||
| Net cash used in investing activities | (77) | (70) | 10.0 | ||||||||||||||
| Net cash used in financing activities | (189) | (362) | (47.8) | ||||||||||||||
24
Operating Activities
Cash flow from operating activities are primarily generated from the operating income generated at our hotels. The $6 million decrease in net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily due to timing of receipts from our customers and payments to our vendors and other third parties.
Investing Activities
The $77 million and $70 million in net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, was attributable to capital expenditures.
Financing Activities
The $189 million in net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was primarily attributable to $131 million of dividends paid and the repurchase of approximately 3.5 million shares of our common stock for $45 million.
The $362 million in net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily attributable to $355 million of dividends paid.
Dividends
As a REIT, we are required to distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains, to our stockholders on an annual basis. Therefore, as a general matter, we intend to make distributions of all, or substantially all, of our REIT taxable income (including net capital gains) to our stockholders, and, as a result, we will generally not be required to pay tax on our REIT income. Consequently, it is unlikely that we will be able to retain substantial cash balances that could be used to meet our liquidity needs from our annual taxable income. Instead, we will need to meet these needs from external sources of capital and amounts, if any, by which our cash flow generated from operations exceeds taxable income.
We declared the following dividends to holders of our common stock during 2025:
| Record Date | Payment Date | Dividend per Share | ||||||||||||
| March 31, 2025 | April 15, 2025 | $ | 0.25 | |||||||||||
| June 30, 2025 | July 15, 2025 | $ | 0.25 | |||||||||||
Debt
As of March 31, 2025, our total indebtedness was approximately $3.8 billion, including over $2 billion of our Senior Notes, and excluding the $725 million SF Mortgage Loan (that we ceased making debt service payments in June 2023) and our share of debt from investments in affiliates. Substantially all the debt of such unconsolidated affiliates is secured solely by the affiliates’ assets or is guaranteed by other partners without recourse to us. Refer to Note 5: “Debt” in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of our financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of our financial statements, the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods and the related disclosures in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes. We have discussed those estimates that we believe are critical and require the use of complex judgment in their application in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on February 20, 2025. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies or the methods or assumptions we apply.
25
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
We are exposed to market risk primarily from changes in interest rates, which may affect our future income, cash flows and fair value, depending on changes to interest rates. In certain situations, we may seek to reduce cash flow volatility associated with changes in interest rates by entering into financial arrangements intended to provide a hedge against a portion of the risks associated with such volatility.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management has evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”)), as required by paragraph (b) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of March 31, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports filed or submitted with the Securities and Exchange Commission (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
26
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
We are involved in various claims and lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of business, some of which include claims for substantial sums, including proceedings involving tort and other general liability claims, employee claims and consumer protection claims. Most occurrences involving liability, claims of negligence and employees are covered by insurance with solvent insurance carriers. For those matters not covered by insurance, which include commercial matters, we recognize a liability when we believe the loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated. The ultimate results of claims and litigation cannot be predicted with certainty. We believe we have adequate reserves against such matters. We currently believe that the ultimate outcome of such lawsuits and proceedings will not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity. However, depending on the amount and timing, an unfavorable resolution of some or all of these matters could materially affect our future results of operations in a particular period.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in response to “Part I – Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
2(a): Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
None.
2(b): Use of Proceeds from Registered Securities
None.
2(c): Purchases of Equity Securities
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, repurchases made pursuant to our stock repurchase program were as follows:
| Period | Total number of shares purchased(1) | Weighted average price paid per share(2) | Total number of shares purchased as part of publicly announced plans or programs(3) | Maximum number (or approximate dollar value) of common shares that may yet be purchased under the plans or programs (in millions)(3) | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| January 1, 2025 through January 31, 2025 | 1,430,264 | $ | 14.00 | 1,430,264 | $ | 14 | ||||||||||||||||||||
| February 1, 2025 through February 28, 2025 | 178,986 | $ | 12.73 | — | $ | 300 | ||||||||||||||||||||
| March 1, 2025 through March 31, 2025 | 2,085,011 | $ | 11.97 | 2,085,011 | $ | 275 | ||||||||||||||||||||
| Total | 3,694,261 | 3,515,275 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
_____________________________________
(1)The number of shares purchased represents shares of common stock repurchased under the applicable previously announced stock repurchase programs as well as 178,986 shares of common stock surrendered by certain of our employees to satisfy their federal and state tax obligations associated with the vesting of restricted common stock.
(2)The weighted average price paid per share for shares of common stock surrendered by certain employees is based on the closing price of our common stock on the trading date immediately prior to the date of delivery of the shares. The weighted average price paid per share for shares repurchased excludes commissions paid.
27
(3)The stock repurchase program authorized on February 17, 2023, which allowed for the repurchase of up to $300 million of our common stock was terminated on February 14, 2025 upon the authorization of a new $300 million stock repurchase program, which expires on February 19, 2027.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.
In June 2023, we ceased making debt service payments toward the SF Mortgage Loan, and we have received a notice of default from the servicer. As of May 5, 2025, the total arrearage related to the SF Mortgage Loan, including interest and fees was $116 million, of which $55 million is default interest. In October 2023, the trustee for the SF Mortgage Loan filed a lawsuit against the borrowers under the SF Mortgage Loan. In connection with the lawsuit, the court has appointed a receiver to take control of the Hilton San Francisco Hotels, which serve as security for the SF Mortgage Loan, and their operations, and thus, we have no further economic interest in the operations of the hotels. The receiver operates and has authority over the hotels. The receiver also had the ability to sell the hotels until March 31, 2025; however, prior to the deadline, the receiver requested an extension to May 30, 2025 in order to sell the hotels to a specified buyer. The court granted the extension with an additional one-time extension option not to exceed 60 days. If the hotels are not sold to the specified buyer by the amended predetermined period, the court order contemplates that the receivership will end with a non-judicial foreclosure as soon as permissible under California law.
