CHOICE HOTELS INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

On August 11, 2022, Choice Hotels International, Inc. (“Choice” or the “Company”, or “we”, “us”, “our”) completed its previously announced acquisition (the “Transaction”) of (1) all of the issued and outstanding shares of Radisson Hospitality, Inc. (“Radisson Americas”) and (2) certain trademarks held by Radisson Hospitality Belgium BV/SRL (“Radisson Belgium”) covering (i) the United States of America and its territories, namely Guam, American Samoa, Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands; (ii) all countries located on the continents of North America and South America; and (iii) all countries and territories located in the Caribbean (the “Radisson IP”; with Radisson Americas and the Radisson IP collectively referred to as “Radisson”), pursuant to a Share Sale and Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Choice acquired Radisson for cash consideration of $675 million, subject to closing adjustments. The Transaction was funded through cash on hand and proceeds from drawing on a pre-existing revolving credit facility.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information contained herein sets forth the following:

•The historical consolidated financial information of Choice, as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2022 (unaudited), derived from Choice’s unaudited consolidated financial statements; and for the year ended December 31, 2021, derived from Choice’s audited consolidated financial statements;

•The historical condensed combined financial information of Radisson, adjusted to reflect certain reclassifications to conform the financial statement presentation with that of Choice, as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2022 (unaudited), derived from Radisson’s unaudited condensed combined financial statements; and for the year ended December 31, 2021, derived from Radisson’s audited combined financial statements;

•Pro forma adjustments to give effect to the Transaction on the pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2022, as if the Transaction closed March 31, 2022; and

•Pro forma adjustments to give effect to the Transaction on the pro forma condensed combined statements of income (loss) for the year ended December 31, 2021 and three months ended March 31, 2022, as if the Transaction closed January 1, 2021.

This unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information should be read in conjunction with:

•Choice’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto, for the year ended December 31, 2021, included in Choice’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, as filed with the SEC on February 24, 2022;

•Choice’s unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto, as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2022, included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as filed with the SEC on May 10, 2022;

•Radisson’s audited combined financial statements and related notes thereto, for the year ended December 31, 2021, and unaudited condensed combined financial statements and related notes thereto, as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2022, which are included herewith as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K/A.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) Article 11, Pro Forma Financial Information (“Article 11”), under Regulation S-X of the Exchange Act, giving effect to the application of the acquisition method of accounting, as promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”), and the related financing necessary to effectuate the Transaction. ASC 805 requires, among other things, that under the acquisition method of accounting, the acquired assets and assumed liabilities be recognized at their acquisition-date fair value, using the fair value concepts as defined in ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”).

At this time, the accounting for the Transaction is ongoing, and the amounts and adjustments presented herein are provisional, as the purchase accounting is not final. Additionally, the allocation of purchase price to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities of Radisson was based on preliminary estimates of fair value, determined through discussions with Radisson management and valuation studies performed by independent third-party valuation experts. Accordingly, the final purchase accounting adjustments may differ materially from the preliminary unaudited adjustments presented herein. The preliminary estimates are based on the best information available as of the date of this filing and include certain assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable under the circumstances.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information should be read in conjunction with the notes herein, is for informational purposes only, is not intended to represent nor be indicative of actual results of operations or financial position of Choice or Radisson had the Transaction been completed on the dates assumed, nor should it be considered indicative of future consolidated results of operations or financial position. Furthermore, while the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does give effect to the costs incurred to effectuate the Transaction, it does not give effect to any anticipated synergies, operating efficiencies or cost savings that may be a result of the Transaction.

(AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED)

1.Description of the Transaction and Basis of Presentation

On August 11, 2022, Choice completed its previously announced acquisition of Radisson. See Note 3 for further discussion of the determination of purchase price. To fund the Transaction, Choice drew $175,000 on the Company’s existing $600,000 unsecured credit facility (the “Revolver”), as further described in Note 4, and funded the remainder with cash on hand.

Choice has prepared the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information in accordance with Article 11 of SEC Regulation S-X, applying the acquisition method of accounting under ASC 805, with Choice as the acquirer and Radisson as the acquiree for accounting purposes. Pursuant to the guidance in ASC 805, the acquisition method of accounting requires the purchase price to be allocated to the acquisition-date fair values of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, with any excess recorded as goodwill. To facilitate this allocation of purchase price and using the fair value concepts outlined in ASC 820, Choice has determined the preliminary fair value estimates of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities as of August 11, 2022, the date the Transaction closed. As of the date of this report, Choice has not yet completed certain detailed valuation procedures necessary to finalize these estimates of fair value and related purchase price allocation. The finalization of these estimates is expected to be complete when Choice files its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Differences between preliminary estimates and the final purchase price accounting may occur and could have a material impact on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not give effect to any expected cost savings, operating nor revenue synergies that may result from the Transaction, nor any costs required to achieve such synergies. It does, however, give effect to the costs incurred to effectuate the Transaction that had not yet been recorded as of the date of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet. See Note 5 for further details.

During the preparation of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, Choice performed a preliminary review of Radisson’s accounting policies. Adjustments were necessary to certain of the accounting policies used to produce Radisson’s historical financial statements in order to conform to those of Choice. These amounts are disclosed in Note 5 below. Furthermore, certain reclassifications have been made in order to conform the historical financial statement presentation of Radisson with Choice. See Note 2 for detailed reclassification adjustments. Final review of Radisson’s accounting policies is ongoing and additional differences may be identified that, when conformed, could have a material impact on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

3. Preliminary Purchase Price and Resulting Allocation

As part of the acquisition method of accounting, the preliminary purchase price has been estimated to be $673,856, which includes the purchase price of $675,186, adjusted for Disclosed Leakage (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) and certain other prepaid expenses. This preliminary purchase price has been allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, based on their preliminary acquisition-date fair values, in accordance with ASC 805 and ASC 820. These preliminary fair values were determined using the best information available as of the date of this filing. The adjustments necessary to reflect the application of purchase accounting and recognition of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities at their acquisition-date fair value are further described in Note 5 below. As discussed in Note 1 herein, the finalization of these preliminary fair values, the preliminary purchase price and resulting allocation of such, is ongoing. Accordingly, the finalized amounts may differ from these preliminary amounts presented herein, and those differences may be material.

4.Pro Forma Financing Adjustments

a.In connection with the Transaction, the Company borrowed $175,000 against its Revolver, which has a maturity date of August 20, 2026, as noted within the Restated Senior Unsecured Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Restated Credit Agreement”) previously filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Form 8-K dated August 20, 2018. The Revolver draw was comprised of $25,000 of swingline borrowings, $30,000 of Alternative Base Rate (as defined in the Restated Credit Agreement) borrowings, and $120,000 of additional borrowings.

b.Reflects the reclassification of unamortized financing costs related to the facility. Prior to the Revolver borrowings, these unamortized financing costs were presented within Other assets, in accordance with the Company’s accounting policy. As balances are drawn on the Revolver, the Company’s policy is to reclassify these amounts to present against the outstanding borrowings in the consolidated balance sheet.

c.Represents the incremental interest expense related to Revolver draw, as described in Note 4(a) above. The Revolver bears interest at a LIBOR-based rate plus applicable margin or, as noted in the Restated Credit Agreement, an alternative benchmark rate, if applicable. Accordingly, the $25,000 swingline borrowing bears interest at an aggregate 3.44%, the $30,000 Alternative Base Rate borrowing bears interest at an aggregate 5.55%, and the remaining $120,000 additional borrowing bears interest at an aggregate 3.44%. The aggregate, incremental interest recognized within the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income (loss) is $1,663 and $6,746 for the three months ended March 31, 2022, and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively. A 1/8th percent change in the respective interest rates would result in an increase or decrease in interest expense of $55 and $222, for the three months ended March 31, 2022, and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively.

5.Pro Forma Transaction Accounting Adjustments

The below adjustments reflect the Company’s application of purchase accounting, pursuant to ASC 805 and ASC 820. The resulting impact of these adjustments, applicable to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, are included in the purchase price allocation and determination of goodwill, as described in Note 3.

a.Reflects the consideration transferred at closing to acquire Radisson and effectuate the Transaction.

b.Reflects the goodwill recognized as a result of the preliminary purchase price allocation; refer to Note 3.

c.Reflects adjustments to remove the financial statement impacts of an entity comprised of the operations and financial condition of a hotel property previously divested by Radisson, which due to Radisson’s continued involvement via a long-term management agreement, and its interpretation of the relevant accounting guidance, Radisson had deferred the recognition of the sale. As a result, Radisson continued to consolidate the entity, eliminating the revenue from the related management agreement, and deferring the gain on sale. Choice has concluded it will not consolidate the hotel property post-acquisition and, pursuant to the Company’s interpretation and application of ASC Topic 606, Revenue with Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), will recognize the sale and ongoing revenue from the related management agreement. The below table presents the quantitative adjustments necessary to effectuate the aforementioned, included within both the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and statements of income (loss):

Selling, general and administrative	(418)		(1,422)
Depreciation and amortization	(17)		(70)
Total impact to net income	$	188	$	149

d.Reflects adjustments to remove Radisson’s historical unamortized deferred franchise sales commissions of $468 and $6,136, which were paid to sales personnel to source and secure customer contracts, from Prepaid expenses and other

CHOICE HOTELS INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

(AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED)

current assets and Other assets, respectively. Corresponding adjustments of $161 and $837 were made to reduce Selling, general and administrative expense in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively.

Additionally reflects adjustment to remove unamortized franchise agreement acquisition costs of $26,925, which were amounts paid to franchisees as an incentive to enter into new franchise agreements, from Intangible assets, net. Corresponding adjustments of $369 and $1,105 were made to reduce Other revenue in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively.

These balances are removed as the acquisition-date fair value of these amounts is based on the expected future economic benefit to the Company, which is nil, consistent with the Company’s application of the FASB’s Accounting Standards Update 2021-08: Business Combinations (Topic 805) Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers.

e.Reflects the adjustment to record the acquired property and equipment assets at their preliminary fair value. As a result of this change in value, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income (loss) have also been adjusted to reflect the change in depreciation expense, which is based on Choice’s estimate of the remaining useful lives of these acquired assets.

The following table summarizes the preliminary fair value of the property and equipment assets acquired, their estimated useful lives, and the resulting depreciation expense:


				Depreciation Expense
			Estimated	Three Months		Year
	Preliminary		Useful Life	Ended		Ended
Property and equipment	Fair Value		(years)	March 31, 2022		December 31, 2021
Land	$	7,159	N/A	N/A		N/A
Construction in progress	2,198		N/A	N/A		N/A
Building and leasehold improvements	94,866		24.4	997		4,042
Site improvements	586		23.1	6		26
Furniture, fixtures and equipment	8,394		3.9	538		2,183

Total	125,441			3,050		12,370
Less: Historical Radisson Amounts(1)	116,965			1,840		8,664
Pro Forma Transaction Accounting Adjustment	$	8,476		$	1,210	$	3,706
(1) Adjusted to exclude Property and equipment amounts described in Note 5(c).

Of the above pro forma transaction accounting adjustments related to depreciation expense, $1,252 and $5,015 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively, is recorded as an increase to Other expenses from franchised and managed hotels in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income (loss).

These preliminary estimates of fair value and corresponding useful lives are still being finalized. Accordingly, a 10% change in the valuation of property and equipment assets would cause a corresponding increase or decrease in the balance of goodwill and would increase or decrease the annual depreciation expense by $1,237.

f.Reflects the remeasurement of Radisson’s operating lease liabilities, right-of-use assets and resulting lease expense, applying Choice’s accounting policies and incremental borrowing rate. Adjustments of $105 and $(309) were made to Selling, general and administrative and $(181) and $(55) to Owned hotels expense in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively.

g.Reflects the adjustment to recognize the acquired intangible assets at their preliminary fair value. As a result of this adjustment, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income (loss) have also been adjusted to include the resulting incremental amortization expense, which is based on Choice’s estimate of the remaining useful lives of these acquired assets.

The following table summarizes the preliminary fair value of the acquired intangible assets, their estimated useful lives, and the resulting amortization expense:

Pro Forma Transaction Accounting Adjustment	$	192,650		$	(3,219)	$	(6,411)
(1) Adjusted to exclude amounts related to franchise agreement acquisition costs, described in Note 5(d).

These preliminary estimates of fair value and corresponding useful lives are still being finalized. Accordingly, a 10% change in the valuation of these assets would cause a corresponding increase or decrease in the balance of goodwill and would increase or decrease the annual amortization expense by $1,451.

h.Represents provisional adjustments required to align Radisson balances with Choice’s policy with respect to the application of ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (“ASC 326”), which was adopted by Choice on January 1, 2020. Radisson, as a private company, was not required to adopt this standard prior to the Transaction. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2022 includes a provisional adjustment to include expected credit losses of $835 related to Notes receivable and $247 related to Accounts receivable, to reflect the adoption of ASC 326.

i.Reflects adjustment of $1,808 to record an acquired interest rate cap agreement, which was secured by Radisson to hedge LIBOR-related interest rate risk on the assumed debt, at its acquisition-date fair value. Related adjustments of $15 and $24 were made to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively, to remove historical amortization of the initial deferred premium. The fair value attributable to this agreement is entirely based on LIBOR, which increased substantially during the second and third quarters of 2022.

j.Reflects adjustment to record an equity investment in certain hotel assets at its acquisition-date fair value.

k.Reflects adjustments to record $24,194 of nonrecurring transaction costs incurred after and not yet recognized as of March 31, 2022.

l.Reflects the adjustment to remove certain third-party Radisson debt of $70,744, which was settled in cash prior to the Transaction. Additionally, reflects the adjustment to remove certain related-party debt of $42,852, which was not assumed as part of the Transaction. Lastly, reflects adjustment of $3,927 to recognize the debt assumed at its acquisition-date fair value. Corresponding adjustments of $617 and $2,745, were made to reduce Interest expense in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively.

m.Reflects adjustment to record certain fees of $700 prepaid by Radisson’s former parent, through a reduction in cash consideration transferred at closing, related to transaction-related transition services to be provided by the Company.

n.Reflects the removal of Radisson historical equity balances.

o.To record the income tax effect of the pro forma adjustments, based on a blended foreign, federal, and state statutory rate of approximately 24.6%. The effective tax rate of the combined company could be significantly different than what is presented in these unaudited pro forma financial statements depending on post-acquisition activities, including legal entity restructuring and the geographical mix of taxable income.

p.No additional shares were issued in connection with the Transaction. Accordingly, the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the combined company is as follows:
