SUMMIT HOTEL PROPERTIES REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2023 RESULTS

Pro Forma RevPAR Reaches New Post-Pandemic High

The Nordic Lodge Steamboat Springs Acquired Through GIC Joint Venture

AUSTIN, Texas, Aug. 2, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Summit Hotel Properties, Inc. (NYSE: INN) (the "Company"), today announced results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.

"Key operating fundamentals continued to improve during the second quarter as nominal quarterly RevPAR reached its highest level since the onset of the pandemic, highlighted by nearly 15% RevPAR growth in the NewcrestImage portfolio. Our revenue management efforts yielded significant market share gains during the quarter, as total portfolio RevPAR index increased over 250 basis points compared to last year, also driven by the NewcrestImage portfolio which grew index by nearly 750 basis points during the quarter," said Jonathan P. Stanner, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer. "As the second quarter progressed, we saw industry demand trends normalize, particularly in leisure-oriented markets, but we are encouraged by the recovery of our urban portfolio during the quarter and the stability of our forward looking operating trends," commented Mr. Stanner.

"We also continued to expand our partnership with GIC through the acquisition of The Nordic Lodge in downtown Steamboat Springs, which presents a unique opportunity to own a highly regarded independent hotel with a strong going-in yield, an extremely efficient operating model, and significant development or redevelopment optionality. Finally, we were extremely pleased with the execution of our corporate credit facility refinancing that closed in the second quarter. The credit facility transaction, along with the two previously announced interest rate swaps that are now effective, further enhance our well-positioned balance sheet by extending maturity dates, maintaining pricing, reducing interest rate risk, and preserving overall flexibility to execute on our strategic initiatives," continued Mr. Stanner.

Recent Transaction Activity

The Nordic Lodge Steamboat Springs Acquired for $13.7 Million

On June 23, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of The Nordic Lodge Steamboat Springs ("The Nordic Lodge Hotel"), an independent 47-guestroom hotel, for $13.7 million through its joint venture with GIC.

Located in the heart of downtown Steamboat Springs and consistently ranked #1 on TripAdvisor's Best Places to Stay in Steamboat Springs, the acquisition of The Nordic Lodge Hotel provides a unique opportunity to own an asset with an irreplaceable downtown location, strong going-in yield, and immediate value enhancement opportunities. The Nordic Lodge Hotel is located approximately two miles from the joint venture's Residence Inn Steamboat Springs hotel, offering incremental complexing opportunities to an already highly efficient operating model, highlighted by a gross operating profit margin that exceeded 70% for the full year 2022.

Steamboat Springs is recognized as one of the top mountain resorts in the U.S., and in addition to the well-known ski resort, Steamboat Springs offers year-round activities such as hiking, biking, fishing, and rafting as well as events and festivals held throughout the city. The Company estimates The Nordic Lodge Hotel to yield between a 10.0 percent and 10.5 percent capitalization rate based on the full year estimated 2023 net operating income prior to any potential synergies related to common ownership with the Residence Inn Steamboat. The Company funded its 51% interest in the joint venture acquisition using a portion of the net proceeds generated from the recently completed four-hotel portfolio sale and cash on hand.

Residence Inn Scottsdale North Acquired for $29.0 Million

On June 1, 2023, the Company completed the previously announced acquisition of the 120-guestroom Residence Inn Scottsdale North ("Residence Inn Scottsdale") for $29.0 million through its joint venture with GIC. The Residence Inn Scottsdale is located directly across North Scottsdale Road from the joint venture's Courtyard and Springhill Suites hotels, both of which are also owned by the GIC joint venture. The Company expects the addition of a third Marriott-branded hotel to the existing sales cluster will create revenue and operational synergies and the market-leading Residence Inn brand will allow the cluster to capture additional group and extended-stay opportunities.

The Company expects the Residence Inn Scottsdale to yield between an 8.0 percent and 8.5 percent capitalization rate on full year estimated 2023 net operating income prior to any synergies realized. The hotel was fully renovated in 2019 and requires minimal near-term capital expenditures. The Company funded its 51% interest in the joint venture acquisition using a portion of the net proceeds generated from the recently completed four-hotel portfolio sale.

Four-Hotel Portfolio Sale Completed For $28.1 Million

On May 19, 2023, the Company completed the previously announced disposition of four wholly-owned hotels totaling 467 guestrooms for a gross sales price of $28.1 million. The portfolio of sold hotels included:

The transaction represents a 4.2 percent capitalization rate based on the aggregate net operating income of the hotels after a 4% FF&E reserve for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022. The Company will also forego comprehensive renovations that were estimated to be $21 million as a result of the sale. The aggregate gross sales price of $28.1 million, plus estimated future capital improvements, represents a 2.4 percent capitalization rate for the trailing twelve months ended December 31, 2022.

Capital Markets & Balance Sheet

On June 21, 2023, the Company successfully completed the refinancing of its $600 million senior unsecured credit facility (the "Credit Facility"), which is comprised of a $400 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the "Revolver") and $200 million senior unsecured term loan (the "Term Loan"). The amended and restated credit agreement provides for a maturity date of June 2028 for both the Revolver and Term Loan, including extension options. The pricing grid from the prior credit facility has been maintained at a range of 140 to 240 basis points for the Revolver and 135 to 235 basis points for the Term Loan, each over the applicable adjusted SOFR rate. As a result of this refinancing, the Company's average length to maturity has been increased to over three years, including extension options, with no debt maturities until the fourth quarter of 2024.

As of June 30, 2023, inclusive of its pro rata share of the GIC Joint Venture credit facility, the Company had the following:

• Outstanding debt of $1.2 billion with a weighted average interest rate of 4.93 percent. After giving effect to interest rate derivative agreements, $748.0 million, or 65 percent, of our outstanding debt had an average fixed interest rate, and $406.0 million, or 35 percent, had a variable interest rate.
  • On July 1, 2023, two previously announced interest rate swaps that fix SOFR at 3.35% became effective and result in the Company having approximately 74 percent fixed rate debt with a weighted average interest rate of 4.80 percent.
• Unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $45.1 million.
• Total liquidity of $421.6 million, including unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and revolving credit facility availability.

Common and Preferred Dividend Declaration

On July 27, 2023, the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.06 per share on its common stock and per common unit of limited partnership interest in Summit Hotel OP, LP. The quarterly dividend of $0.06 per share represents an annualized dividend yield of 3.8% based on the closing price of shares of the common stock on August 1, 2023.

In addition, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of:
