Adjusted FFO (“AFFO”) Improved 20% to $0.42 Per Diluted Share
·  
Consolidated RevPAR Increased 17%
·  
Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA Grew 71%

PHILADELPHIA, PA--(Business Wire)—August 8, 2007-- Hersha Hospitality Trust (AMEX: HT) owner of nationally franchised  premium full service and limited service hotels, today announced earnings for the second quarter ended June 30, 2007.

Financial Highlights for the Second Quarter 2007

Net income applicable to common shareholders for the second quarter of 2007 was $6.6 million, or $0.16 per common share as compared to net income of $2.2 million, or $0.09 per common share for the second quarter of 2006. Over the last year, the Company has transformed its portfolio by purchasing high quality hotels with premium revenue per available room (RevPAR) in key markets such as New York and Northern California on an accretive basis. Additionally, several of Hersha’s younger hotels have begun to stabilize their occupancy levels, resulting in increased contribution to the Company’s cash flow and earnings.

Operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2007 was $17.9 million compared to $9.2 million for the same period in 2006. The increase in operating income resulted from strong revenue improvement from growth in average daily rate (ADR), the addition of 13 hotels over the last year and growth in the size of the average hotel in the Company’s portfolio, each of which has increased the scale of Hersha’s operations enabling the Company to better absorb administrative costs.  Adjusted funds from operations (AFFO) for the second quarter of 2007 increased to $0.42 per diluted common share and unit from $0.35 per diluted common share and unit for the same quarter of 2006. A reconciliation of AFFO to net income applicable to common shares, the most directly applicable U.S. GAAP measure, is included at the end of this release.

Mr. Jay H. Shah, Chief Executive Officer, noted, “Our second quarter and first half of 2007 results showed excellent progress by a number of metrics. We had very strong double-digit RevPAR growth and we expanded our consolidated hotel margins. During the quarter, we added our 13th hotel in the New York City metropolitan market with the purchase of the Hotel 373 in Manhattan and bolstered our presence with several development investments. Additionally, we made progress on our goal of increasing the percentage ownership of our unconsolidated hotels with increased ownership of our two Glastonbury, Connecticut properties.”


 
For the three-month period ended June 30, 2007, consolidated total hotel operating revenues increased 66% to $63.5 million from $38.2 million in the second quarter of 2006 driven primarily by hotel acquisitions and growth in room revenues.  RevPAR for the Company’s consolidated hotels (57 hotels) increased 16.7% on a year-over-year basis to $104.04 driven by a 14.0% increase in ADR to $130.21 and a 183 basis point improvement in occupancy to 79.90% for the quarter.

Gross operating profit (GOP) margins for the Company’s consolidated hotels increased approximately 170 basis points to 48.8% from 47.1%, as compared to the second quarter of 2006.  GOP margins improved as a result of stronger top-line performance and the impact of rate based revenue growth.  A result of growth in the company’s portfolio and an improved mix of hotels with higher margins, adjusted EBITDA for consolidated hotels increased 71% to $25.8 million for the second quarter of 2007 as compared to the second quarter 2006.  Adjusted EBITDA margins for the quarter increased 110 basis points to 40.6% for the Company’s consolidated hotel portfolio.

On a same-store basis for Hersha’s consolidated hotels (35 hotels), RevPAR for the second quarter of 2007 increased 8.8% on a year-over-year basis to $102.12 driven by a 6.8% increase in ADR to $127.50 and a 145 basis points improvement in occupancy to 80.09%. Same-store Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2007 increased 6.1% to $15.9 million. The Company’s same-store Adjusted EBITDA margin declined 81 basis points to 40.0% for the second quarter of 2007, as compared to the second quarter of 2006.  Renovation disruptions at several stabilized properties, increases in utilities expenses, real estate taxes and new brand initiatives accounted for the majority of the decline in margins.

Other Second Quarter 2007 Highlights

v
On June 1, the Company finalized the acquisition of the newly opened 70-room Hotel 373, located at 373 Fifth Avenue at 35th Street, in midtown Manhattan for $28.0 million and the associated $6.0 million acquisition of a Starbucks leasehold interest.
v
The Company also made several investments in its development financing program.  Hersha purchased a land parcel in Brooklyn, New York, which will be used for an all suite hotel development and issued a $15.0 million mezzanine loan for a select service hotel in Lower Manhattan.

These transactions are detailed in the supplemental schedules at the end of this release and posted to the “presentations and supplemental schedules” page of the Company’s Web site.

Subsequent Events

v
On July 1, Hersha completed the purchase of the 134-room Holiday Inn-Norwich, Connecticut for $16.1 million, including the assumption of $8.2 million in debt.
v
The Company also purchased a second parcel of land in Brooklyn adjacent to its existing parcel, as a part of a two parcel assemblage, for $7.5 million for the development of an all suite hotel development.

Balance Sheet

At June 30, 2007, Hersha Hospitality Trust had approximately $680.4 million of total consolidated debt outstanding, which included approximately $51.5 million of Trust Preferred Securities.  Fixed rate debt, including variable rate debt fixed by an interest rate swap, amounted to approximately 91% of total consolidated debt.  The weighted average interest rate on all of the Company’s fixed rate debt was approximately 6.20% for the second quarter.  The weighted average life to maturity of the Company’s debt was 8.6 years.   Total common shares and units of limited partnership interest of Hersha Hospitality Limited Partnership, the Company’s operating partnership subsidiary, outstanding at June 30, 2007 were 46.6 million.

The Company ended the second quarter of 2007 with $68.0 million in development loans and land leases outstanding to nine hotel development projects.

Mr. Shah commented, “We have been able to replace most of the paydowns in our development loans with new Manhattan development opportunities with similar yields.  Our development investments continue to demonstrate the depth of our relationships in New York City, the nation’s best lodging market and a market to which we have a long-term ownership commitment.”

Dividend

For the second quarter of 2007, Hersha Hospitality Trust declared common share and limited partnership unit dividends of $0.18 per common share and unit.   The Company’s common dividend represents the 33rd consecutive quarterly dividend at this amount since the Company’s 1999 initial public offering and represents a yield of approximately 6.9% based upon the closing price of Hersha Hospitality Trust stock on August 7, 2007.  Hersha’s annualized dividend of $0.72 per common share is approximately 61-62% of the Company’s forecasted AFFO for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2007. The Board of Trustees also declared a second quarter cash dividend of $0.50 per Series A Preferred Share.

Financial Outlook for 2007

Assuming a continued strong U.S. economy and limited supply growth in its markets, the Company anticipates that its current portfolio will contribute to another year of strong growth in AFFO in 2007.  The Company is updating its financial guidance for the full year ended December 31, 2007 as follows:

Net income available to common shareholders is now expected to be $10.25 million to $11.5 million, or $0.22 to $0.25 per weighted average diluted share outstanding.  This is revised from previous financial guidance due to completed acquisitions, increased development loans and increased depreciation and amortization from the acquisition of hotels.

·
2007 Adjusted EBITDA is now expected to be $111.5 million to $113.0 million
·
2007 AFFO is now expected to be $1.16 to $1.18 per weighted average diluted share outstanding

The Company’s expectations for net income available to common shareholders, net income available to common shareholders per weighted average diluted share outstanding, Adjusted EBITDA and AFFO per diluted share for the full year ended December 31, 2007 are based upon the Company achieving consolidated same-store RevPAR growth of 6.5% to 8.5% and consolidated portfolio RevPAR growth of 12% to 14%, as compared to the full year 2006.

FFO and GAAP Reconciliation
 
The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) developed Funds from Operations (“FFO”) as a non-GAAP financial measure of performance of an equity REIT in order to recognize that income-producing real estate historically has not depreciated on the basis determined under GAAP.  We calculate FFO applicable to common shares and Partnership units in accordance with the April 2002 National Policy Bulletin of NAREIT, which we refer to as the White Paper.   The White Paper defines FFO as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding extraordinary items as defined under GAAP and gains or losses from sales of previously depreciated assets, plus certain non-cash items, such as depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.  Our interpretation of the NAREIT definition is that minority interest in net income (loss) should be added back to (deducted from) net income (loss) as part of reconciling net income (loss) to FFO. Our FFO computation may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not compute FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or that interpret the NAREIT definition differently than we do.

The GAAP measure that we believe to be most directly comparable to FFO, net income (loss) applicable to common shares, includes depreciation and amortization expenses, gains or losses on property sales, minority interest and preferred dividends. In computing FFO, we eliminate these items because, in our view, they are not indicative of the results from our property operations.
 
Hersha also presents Adjusted Funds from Operations (AFFO), which reflects FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition further adjusted by:

·
adding back write-offs of deferred financing costs on debt extinguishment, both for consolidated and unconsolidated properties;
·
adding back amortization of deferred financing costs;
·
adding back non-cash stock expense;
·
adding back FFO attributed to our partners in consolidated joint ventures; and
·
making adjustments to ground lease payments, which are required by GAAP to be amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, to reflect the actual lease payment.

FFO and AFFO do not represent cash flows from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of Hersha’s performance or to cash flow as a measure of liquidity or ability to make distributions. We consider FFO and AFFO to be meaningful, additional measures of our operating performance because they exclude the effects of the assumption that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time, and because they are widely used by industry analysts as a performance measures. We show both FFO from consolidated hotel operations and FFO from unconsolidated joint ventures because we believe it is meaningful for the investor to understand the relative contributions from our consolidated and unconsolidated hotels. The display of both FFO from consolidated hotels and FFO from unconsolidated joint ventures allows for a detailed analysis of the operating performance of our hotel portfolio by management and investors.  We present FFO and AFFO applicable to common shares and Partnership units because our Partnership units are redeemable for common shares.  We believe it is meaningful for the investor to understand FFO applicable to all common shares and Partnership units.

EBITDA and GAAP Reconciliation

Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, and Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) is a non-GAAP financial measure within the meaning of the Securities and Exchange Commission rules. Our interpretation of Adjusted EBITDA is that EBITDA derived from our investment in unconsolidated joint ventures should be added back to net income (loss) as part of reconciling net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA. Our Adjusted EBITDA computation may not be comparable to EBITDA reported by other companies that interpret the definition of EBITDA differently than we do. Management believes EBITDA to be a meaningful measure of a REIT's performance and that it should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income, cash flow, FFO and AFFO, as a measure of the company's operating performance.
