Marks Eighth Consecutive Quarter of RevPAR growth;
Continued Network Expansion with 13 New Franchise and Management Deals Executed in 2015;
Acquired GuestHouse International and Settle Inn Brands Increasing Portfolio to 130 Hotels in 30 States

SPOKANE, WA, May 7, 2015 - (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RLHC (“Red Lion Hotels Corporation”) (NYSE: RLH), a growing hospitality company that operates and franchises upscale, midscale and economy hotels, today reported first quarter 2015 results.

Highlights:
RevPAR from comparable company operated hotels increased 10.7 percent year over year in the first quarter. Franchised hotels RevPAR increased 13.1 percent year over year in the first quarter. Comparable systemwide RevPAR increased 12.1 percent year over year during the same period.
ADR and Occupancy from comparable company operated hotels improved 5.3 percent and 300 bps year over year, respectively, in the first quarter. Franchised hotels ADR and Occupancy improved 5.0 percent and 350 bps year over year, respectively, in the first quarter. Comparable systemwide ADR and Occupancy improved 5.2 percent and 330 bps, respectively, from the prior year period.
Net income per share in the first quarter improved to $0.51 compared with a net loss per share of $0.18 in the prior year. Adjusted net loss per share was $0.23 in the first quarter of 2015 compared with an adjusted net loss per share of $0.17 in the first quarter of 2014.
Completed a comprehensive transaction to accelerate the execution of RLHC's national growth strategy including the sale of a minority stake in 12 hotels and refinancing of all secured debt.
Sold Bellevue and Wenatchee properties for $39.5 million in aggregate gross proceeds.
Subsequent Events:
Completed the first phase of a joint venture and refinancing transaction on the Company's Hotel RL in Baltimore's Inner Harbor.
Acquired 73 franchise license agreements and all the intellectual property of GuestHouse International and Settle Inn brands, increasing RLHC’s portfolio to 130 hotels in 30 states.

Comparable operating results (as disclosed in the table by the same title) for the periods included in this release exclude from hotel operations the results of the hotels or operations that have been sold and/or discontinued. Throughout this release the Company refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. Please refer to the tables attached to this release for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measure determined in accordance with GAAP.

“We are extremely pleased with our continued improved operating performance in the first quarter as we delivered double digit comparable systemwide RevPAR and hotel revenue growth,” said RLHC President and Chief Executive Officer Greg T. Mount. “This marks eight consecutive quarters of increased comparable RevPAR and positive Adjusted EBITDA. Our most recent results are a testament to our RevPak guest management system and its ability to drive increased bookings and average daily rates through strategic ecommerce and digital marketing as well as our focus on best in class hotel operations.

Mount continued, “We also utilized growth capital from previously owned real estate to accelerate our expansion, using a portion of the Bellevue property sales proceeds to acquire the GuestHouse International and Settle Inn brands, adding 73 franchised hotels to our system. This acquisition immediately establishes a national footprint for the RLHC hotel network and provides significant economies of scale, bringing our total portfolio to 130 hotels. The transaction





also extends our reach into the important and growing economy segment while creating a new pipeline of potential owners for RLHC brands and providing a broader spectrum of guest acquisition opportunities.”

Mount concluded, “With these latest developments combined with our previously announced joint venture agreement, we have already achieved several major milestones in 2015 towards our strategic growth goals. We look forward to continuing to execute against these goals including the opening of the first Hotel RL in Baltimore's Inner Harbor later this summer. Additionally, we are well on our way to the deployment of the $26 million of loan proceeds apportioned to the renovation of the 12 company operated RL Venture properties.”

First Quarter 2015 Results

Comparable revenue from company operated hotels was $22.8 million, an increase of $2.0 million or 9.8 percent compared with the same period a year ago, primarily due to an increase in RevPAR. Comparable first quarter RevPAR increased 10.7 percent to $53.91 driven by a 5.3 percent increase in ADR to $89.23 and a 300 basis point increase in occupancy. Systemwide first quarter RevPAR increased 12.1 percent to $46.80 primarily from a 5.2 percent increase in ADR to $86.29 and a 330 basis point increase in occupancy. Comparable hotel direct operating margin decreased to 12.5 percent from 12.9 percent mainly due a prior year non-cash benefit in our loyalty program and the current year initial investment costs of the enhanced corporate development team.

Franchise revenue was $2.1 million, an increase of $0.6 million or 37.2 percent compared with the same period a year ago, principally due to a higher number of franchises added to the system. Net segment profits decreased $0.4 million over the prior year due to the initial investment costs of the enhanced franchise development team.

Entertainment revenue decreased by $1.4 million and net segment profits decreased by $0.5 million compared with the same period a year ago, mainly due to a 2014 run of a Broadway stage production in Honolulu, which did not repeat in 2015.

Net income attributable to RLHC in the first quarter of 2015 was $10.2 million compared with a net loss of $3.5 million in the same period a year ago. The improvement is primarily due to the recognition of $16.4 million of gain on the sales of Bellevue and Wenatchee, partially offset by the recognition of a $1.2 million loss on the early retirement of debt and $0.6 million in amortized early termination fees on the lease for the Red Lion Hotel Vancouver at the Quay. Net income per share for the first quarter of 2015 was $0.51 versus a net loss of $0.18 per share for the first quarter of 2014. After adjusting for special items, adjusted net loss per share for the first quarter 2015 was $0.23 versus an adjusted net loss of $0.17 per share in 2014.

Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2015 was $0.1 million compared with $1.1 million in the same period a year ago. The decrease is primarily due to a prior year non-cash benefit in our loyalty program and lower year-over-year income in our entertainment division coupled with current year initial investment costs of our enhanced corporate and franchise development teams.

Liquidity and Balance Sheet
At March 31, 2015, the Company had $76.6 million in cash and cash equivalents and outstanding debt of $82.3 million.

Capital expenditures for the first quarter totaled $2.2 million, primarily utilized for guest room renovations and information technology upgrades.

Subsequent Events
Subsequent to quarter-end, the Company sold a 21 percent stake in Hotel RL Baltimore Inner Harbor and concurrently entered into a debt financing arrangement. Total debt and equity proceeds of the transaction were approximately $15 million, of which the joint venture will use approximately $4 million for planned renovations.

The Company also completed the acquisition of all of the intellectual property rights and franchise license agreements on 73 GuestHouse International and Settle Inn & Suites properties for $8.5 million plus a potential additional payment of up to $1.5 million, increasing RLHC's portfolio across the U.S. to 130 hotels.

Comparable Operations and Data From Continuing Operations
(unaudited)
($ in thousands)
 
 
 
 
 
Certain operating results for the periods included in this report are shown on a comparable hotel basis. Comparable hotels are defined as properties that are operated by the Company and excludes the results of discontinued operations, sold properties, and new properties that have been operated for less than 12 months. Discontinued operations include a hotel in Eugene, Oregon that ceased operations in first quarter 2014. Sold properties include the following: the Yakima property, which was sold in April 2014; the Kelso and Kennewick properties, which were sold in May 2014; the Canyon Springs property, which was sold in June 2014; the Pocatello property which was sold in October 2014; the Wenatchee property which was sold in January 2015; and the Bellevue property which was sold and subsequently managed in February 2015. New properties include the Baltimore property which is not yet operating.

We utilize these comparable measures because management finds them a useful tool to perform more meaningful comparisons of past, present and future operating results and as a means to evaluate the results of core, ongoing operations. We believe they are a complement to reported operating results. Comparable operating results are not intended to represent reported operating results defined by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), and such information should not be considered as an alternative to reported information or any other measure of performance prescribed by GAAP.

EBITDA is defined as net income (loss), before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We believe it is a useful financial performance measure due to the significance of our long-lived assets and level of indebtedness.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income (loss) are additional measures of financial performance. We believe that the inclusion or exclusion of certain special items, such as gains and losses on asset dispositions and impairments, is necessary to provide the most accurate measure of core operating results and as a means to evaluate comparative results.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income (loss) are commonly used measures of performance in the industry. We utilize these measures because management finds them a useful tool to perform more meaningful comparisons of past, present and future operating results and as a means to evaluate the results of core, ongoing operations.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income (loss) are not intended to represent net income (loss) defined by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), and such information should not be considered as an alternative to reported information or any other measure of performance prescribed by GAAP. In addition, other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA and in particular Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income (loss) differently than we do or may not calculate them at all, limiting the usefulness of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net income (loss) as comparative measures.
