Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

June 30, 2018

1. Organization

Xenia Hotels & Resorts, Inc. (the "Company" or "Xenia") is a Maryland corporation that invests primarily in premium full service and lifestyle hotels, with a focus on the top 25 lodging markets as well as key leisure destinations in the United States ("U.S.").

Substantially all of the Company's assets are held by, and all the operations are conducted through XHR LP (the "Operating Partnership"). XHR GP, Inc. is the sole general partner of XHR LP and is wholly owned by the Company. As of June 30, 2018, the Company collectively owned 97.4% of the common limited partnership units issued by the Operating Partnership ("Common Units"). The remaining 2.6% of the Common Units are owned by the other limited partners. To qualify as a real estate investment trust ("REIT"), the Company cannot operate or manage its hotels. Therefore, the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries lease the hotel properties to XHR Holding, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively with its subsidiaries, "XHR Holding"), the Company's taxable REIT subsidiary ("TRS"), which engages third-party eligible independent contractors to manage the hotels.

As of June 30, 2018, the Company owned 38 lodging properties, 36 of which were wholly owned. The remaining two hotels are owned through individual investments in real estate entities, in which the Company has a 75% ownership interest in each investment.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared on an accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP" or "GAAP") and in conformity with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") applicable to financial information. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. The unaudited financial statements include normal recurring adjustments, which management considers necessary for the fair presentation of the condensed consolidated balance sheets, condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, condensed consolidated statements of changes in equity and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the periods presented. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 27, 2018. Operating results for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of actual operating results for the entire year.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Operating Partnership, XHR Holding, and its consolidated investments in real estate entities. The Company's subsidiaries and consolidated investments in real estate entities generally consist of limited liability companies, limited partnerships and the TRS. The effects of all inter-company transactions have been eliminated.

Certain prior year amounts in these financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and revenues and expenses. These estimates are prepared using management's best judgment, after considering past, current and expected economic conditions. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Risks and Uncertainties

For the six months endedJune 30, 2018, the Company had a geographical concentration of revenues generated from hotels in the Orlando, Florida and Phoenix, Arizona markets that each exceeded 10% of total revenues for the period. For the six months endedJune 30, 2017, the Company had a geographical concentration of revenues generated from hotels in Houston, Texas that represented 11% of total revenues.

7

To the extent that there are adverse changes in these markets, or the industry sectors that operate in these markets, our business and operating results could be negatively impacted. The state of the overall economy can significantly impact hotel operational performance and thus, impact the Company's financial position. Should any of our hotels experience a significant decline in operational performance, it may affect the Company's ability to make distributions to our stockholders, service debt, or meet other financial obligations.

Consolidation

The Company evaluates its investments in partially owned entities to determine whether any such entities may be a variable interest entity ("VIE"). If the entity is a VIE, the determination of whether the Company is the primary beneficiary must be made. The primary beneficiary determination is based on a qualitative assessment as to whether the entity has (i) power to direct significant activities of the VIE and (ii) an obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could be potentially significant to the VIE. The Company will consolidate a VIE if it is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. The equity method of accounting is applied to entities in which the Company is not the primary beneficiary, or the entity is not a VIE and over which the Company does not have effective control, but can exercise influence over the entity with respect to its operations and major decisions.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all demand deposits, money market accounts and investments in certificates of deposit and repurchase agreements purchased with a maturity of three months or less, at the date of purchase, to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents at financial institutions. The combined account balances at one or more institutions generally exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insurance coverage and, as a result, there is a concentration of credit risk related to amounts on deposit in excess of FDIC insurance coverage. The Company believes that the risk is not significant as the Company does not anticipate the financial institutions’ non-performance.

Restricted Cash and Escrows

Restricted cash primarily relates to lodging furniture, fixtures and equipment reserves as required per the terms of our management and franchise agreements, cash held in restricted escrows for real estate taxes and insurance escrows, capital spending reserves, and at times disposition related hold back escrows.

Disposition of Real Estate

In February 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") 2017-05, Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets. The guidance aims at better clarifying the scope of asset derecognition and adds further guidance for recognizing gains and losses from the transfer of nonfinancial assets in contracts with non-customers. The Company adopted ASU 2017-05 on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach. Upon adoption of ASU 2017-05, there was no change in income from continuing operations, net income nor any financial statement line item during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018 and 2017. Therefore, there was no cumulative effect adjustment recorded to distributions in excess of retained earnings on the adoption date.

The Company accounts for dispositions of real estate in accordance with Subtopic 610-20 for the transactions between the Company and unrelated third parties that are not considered a customer in the ordinary course of business. Typically, the real estate assets disposed of do not represent the transfer of a business or contain a material amount of financial assets, if any. The real estate assets promised in a sales contract are typically nonfinancial assets (i.e. land or a leasehold interest in land, building, furniture, fixtures and equipment) or in substance nonfinancial assets. The Company recognizes a gain in full when the real estate is sold, provided (a) there is a valid contract and (b) transfer of control has occurred.

Involuntary Conversion and Business Interruption Insurance

During the second half of 2017, several of the Company's lodging properties were impacted by natural disasters, including two major hurricanes and a series of wildfires in California.

Any insurance recoveries for property damage expected to be received in excess of the recorded loss will be treated as a gain and will not be recorded until contingencies are resolved.

8

In addition to property damage insurance recoveries, the Company may be entitled to business interruption insurance recoveries for certain properties related to natural disasters, however, it will not record an insurance recovery receivable for these losses until a final settlement has been reached with the insurance company. Any insurance proceeds received in excess of insurance deductibles will be accounted for as a gain. During the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018, the Company recognized $2.6 million of business interruption insurance proceeds related to business lost at Hyatt Centric Key West Resort & Spa as a result of Hurricane Irma, which is included in gain on business interruption insurance on the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income for the periods then ended. Of the $2.6 million recognized, $1.4 millionof the proceeds related to lost income in the third and fourth quarters of 2017, with the remaining$1.2 millionattributable to lost income from the first quarter of 2018.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company has adopted a share-based incentive plan that provides for the grant of stock options, stock awards, restricted stock units, Operating Partnership Units and other equity-based awards. Share-based compensation is measured at the estimated fair value of the award on the date of grant, adjusted for forfeitures, and recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the longest vesting period for each grant for the entire award. The determination of fair value of these awards is subjective and involves significant estimates and assumptions including expected volatility of the Company's shares, expected dividend yield, expected term and assumptions of whether certain of these awards will achieve performance thresholds. Share-based compensation is included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income and capitalized in building and other improvements in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for certain employees that manage property developments, renovations and capital improvements.

Derivatives and Hedging Activities

In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to the effects of interest rate changes. The Company limits the risks associated with interest rate changes by following established risk management policies and procedures which may include the use of derivative instruments. The Company formally documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking various hedge transactions. The Company assesses at the inception of the hedge whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in the cash flows of the hedged items. Instruments that meet these hedging criteria are formally designated as hedges at the inception of the derivative contract and are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value, with offsetting changes recorded to other comprehensive income (loss). The Company nets assets and liabilities when the right of offset exists. The Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 (Topic 842), Leases, which replaces Topic 840, Leases, and requires most leases, in which we are the lessee, to be recorded on the Company's balance sheet as either operating or financing leases with a right of use asset and a corresponding lease liability measured at present value. Operating leases will be recognized on the income statement on a straight-line basis as lease expense and financing leases will be accounted for similarly to the accounting for amortizing debt. Leases with terms of less than 12 months will continue to be accounted for as they are under the current standard. The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2019. The Company is currently working with its third-party hotel managers to determine the completeness of its lease population and to obtain an understanding of implementation efforts at the hotel level. This process includes reviewing lease agreements, evaluating materiality of hotel level leases and determining what, if any, changes there are to hotel-level internal controls. The Company is finalizing its calculations of existing ground and corporate lease obligations, which includes the determination of discount rates to determine the lease liability and the corresponding right-of-use asset upon adoption. The Company is also evaluating the overall impact the standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and continues to monitor the final standard updates issued by the FASB. The Company anticipates adopting the standard on January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective method.

In January 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842. This guidance permits an entity to elect an optional transition practical expedient to not evaluate under land easements that exist or have expired before the entity’s adoption of Topic 842 and that were not previously accounted for as leases under Topic 840. An entity that elects this practical expedient would apply the practical expedient consistently to all of its existing or expired land easements that were not previously accounted for as leases under Topic 840. The Company plans to adopt the practical expedient in ASU 2018-01 upon adoption of ASU 2016-02.

9

In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases. This guidance was issued to address stakeholders' questions on how to apply certain aspects of the new guidance in Topic 842. The clarifications are to be applied upon transition of Topic 842, which is effective for the Company on January 1, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating these clarifications to determine the impact they have on its Topic 842 implementation efforts and its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Also in July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Targeted Improvements to Topic 842, Leases. This guidance provides another option for transition, which allows entities not to apply the new lease standard in the comparative periods they present in their financial statements in the year of adoption. In addition, this guidance provides lessors with a practical expedient to not separate non-lease components from the associated lease components when certain criteria is met. These improvements are to be applied upon transition of Topic 842, which is effective for the Company on January 1, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating these improvements to determine the impact they have on its Topic 842 implementation efforts and its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The guidance is intended to assist entities with evaluating whether a set of transferred assets and activities is a business. Under the new guidance, an entity first determines whether substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets. If this threshold is met, the set is not a business. If the threshold is not met, the entity then evaluates whether the set meets the requirement that a business include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create outputs. The Company adopted ASU 2017-01 on January 1, 2018 on a prospective basis. The Company anticipates that most future acquisitions will be accounted for as asset acquisitions rather than business combinations. As such, asset acquisitions will require the Company to capitalize future acquisition costs as part of the purchase price allocation, rather than expensing these costs as we have historically done when transactions were accounted for as business combinations.

Also in January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Accounting for Goodwill Impairment. The guidance is intended to simplify the accounting for goodwill impairment and removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test under the current guidance, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation. A goodwill impairment under ASU 2017-04 will be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. All other goodwill impairment guidance will remain largely unchanged. Entities will continue to have the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine if a quantitative impairment test is necessary. The same one-step impairment test will be applied to goodwill at all reporting units, even those with zero or negative carrying amounts. Entities will be required to disclose the amount of goodwill at reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2020; however, early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2017-04 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. The guidance is intended to clarify when certain changes to terms or conditions of share-based payment awards must be accounted for as modifications but does not change the accounting for modifications. The new standard is to be applied prospectively to awards modified on or after the adoption date. The Company adopted ASU 2017-09 on January 1, 2018. The adoption of ASU 2017-09 did not have any impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities (Topic 815). The purpose of this updated guidance is to better align a company’s financial reporting for hedging activities with the economic objectives of those activities. The transition guidance provides companies with the option of early adopting the new standard in any interim period after issuance of the update, or alternatively requires adoption for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company early adopted the standard in April 2018 using the modified retrospective transition approach. Prior to April 2018, the Company had not recorded ineffectiveness related to its active hedging relationships and therefore no transition adjustment was required upon adoption. In subsequent periods, any ineffectiveness related to the Company's derivative instruments will be reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income. While the Company mademinor presentation changes in its disclosure on derivative and hedging activities, the adoption of ASU 2017-12 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

3. Revenue

Adoption of new accounting guidance

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The Company adopted ASU 2014-09, and all of the following ASU clarifications on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach:

• ASU 2016-08 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net)

• ASU 2016-10 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing

• ASU 2016-12 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients

• ASU 2016-20 Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Upon adoption of ASU 2014-09 and related ASU clarifications, there was no change on income from continuing operations, net income, or any financial statement line item and there was no cumulative effect adjustment recorded to accumulated distributions in excess of net earnings on the adoption date. The Company concluded upon adoption of ASU 2014-09, the disposition of real estate assets, including hotels, qualify as a sale of a nonfinancial asset and should be recognized under the guidance in ASU 2017-05.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Revenue consists of amounts derived from hotel operations, including the sale of rooms for lodging accommodations, food and beverage, and other ancillary revenue generated by hotel amenities including parking, spa, resort fees and other services.

Revenues are generated from various distribution channels including but not limited to direct bookings, global distribution systems and the Internet travel sites. Room transaction prices are based on an individual hotel's location, room type and the bundle of services included in the reservation and are set by the hotel daily. Any discounts, including advanced purchase, loyalty point redemptions or promotions are recognized at the discounted rate whereas rebates and incentives are recorded as a reduction in room revenue when earned. Revenues from online channels are generally recognized net of commission fees, unless the end price paid by the guest is known. Rooms revenue is recognized over the length of stay that the hotel room is occupied by the guest. Cash received from a guest prior to check-in is recorded as an advanced deposit and is generally recognized as room revenue at the time the room reservation has become non-cancellable, upon occupancy or upon expiration of the re-booking date. Advance deposits are included in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. Payment of any remaining balance is typically due from the guest upon check-out. Sales, use, occupancy, and similar taxes are collected and presented on a net basis (excluded from revenues).

Food and beverage transaction prices are based on the stated price for the specific food or beverage and varies depending on type, venue and hotel location. Service charges are typically a percentage of food and beverage charges and meeting space rental. Food and beverage revenue is recognized at the point in time in which the goods and/or services are rendered to the guest. Cash received in advance of an event is recorded as either a security or advance deposit. Security and advance deposits are recognized as revenue when it becomes non-cancellable or at the time the food and beverage goods and services are rendered to the guest. Payment for the remaining balance of food and beverage goods and services is due upon delivery and completion of such goods and services.

Parking and audio visual fees are recognized at the time services are provided to the guest. In parking and audio visual contracts in which we have control over the services provided, we are considered the principal in the agreement and recognize the related revenues gross of associated costs. If we do not have control over the services in the contract, we are considered the agent and record the related revenues net of associated costs.

Resort fees, spa and other ancillary amenity revenues are recognized at the point in time the goods or services have been rendered to the guest at the stated price for the service or amenity.

Rental income is generated from space lease agreements from retail tenants in our hotels. Rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the underlying lease. Percentage rent is recognized at the point in time in which the underlying thresholds are achieved and percentage rent is earned.

Our revenue sources are affected by conditions impacting the travel and hospitality industry as well as competition from other hotels and businesses in similar markets.

4. Investment Properties

No hotels were acquired during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018.

In May 2017, the Company acquired the 815-room Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress located in Orlando, Florida for a purchase price of $205.5 million, excluding closing costs, that was funded with cash. The Company recognized acquisition costs of $1.2 million for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017, respectively, which are included in acquisition and terminated transaction costs on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the periods then ended. The results of operations for Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress have been included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income since the acquisition date. During the six months endedJune 30, 2018, the Company converted 72 guestrooms into 36 newly created suites, which resulted in a reduction in our total room count.

(2) In addition to the gain on sale recognized during the six months endedJune 30, 2018, we also recognized adjustments related to the 2017 dispositions amounting to $0.1 million.

6. Investment in Real Estate Entities

The Company has a 75% interest in two investments in real estate entities that own and operate the Grand Bohemian Hotel Charleston and the Grand Bohemian Hotel Mountain Brook. These entities are considered VIE's because the entities did not have enough equity to finance their activities without additional subordinated financial support. The Company determined that it has the power to direct the activities of the VIE's that most significantly impact the VIE's economic performance, as well as the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE's that could potentially be significant to the VIE, or the right to receive benefits from the VIE's that could potentially be significant to the VIE. As such, the Company has a controlling financial interest and is considered the primary beneficiary of each of these entities. Therefore, these entities are consolidated by the Company.

The following are the liabilities of the consolidated VIE's, which are non-recourse to the Company, and the assets that can be used to settle those obligations (in thousands):

	June 30, 2018			December 31, 2017
Net investment properties	$	66,027		$	67,687

The remaining unamortized mortgage discounts as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 were $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively. The following table shows scheduled principal payments and debt maturities for the next five years and thereafter (in thousands):

	As of June 30, 2018			Weighted  average interest rate

Of the total outstanding debt at June 30, 2018, none of the mortgage loans were recourse to the Company. Certain loans have options to extend the maturity dates if exercised by the Company, subject to being compliant with certain covenants and the payment of an extension fee. Some of the mortgage loans require compliance with certain covenants, such as debt service coverage ratios, loan-to-value tests, investment restrictions and distribution limitations. As of June 30, 2018, the Company was in compliance with all such covenants.

Senior Unsecured Credit Facility

As of June 30, 2018, there was no outstanding balance on the senior unsecured facility. During the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018, the Company incurred unused commitment fees of approximately $0.4 million and $0.7 million, respectively, and interest expense of $0 and $34 thousand, respectively. During the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017, the Company incurred unused commitment fees of approximately $0.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively, and interest expense of $0.2 million, respectively.

8. Derivatives

The Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy for variable-rate debt. As of June 30, 2018, all interest rate swaps were designated as cash flow hedges and involve the receipt of variable-rate payments from a counterparty in exchange for making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. Unrealized gains and losses of hedging instruments are reported in other comprehensive income. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to currently outstanding derivatives are recognized as an adjustment to income (loss) through interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable rate debt.

15

As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, all derivative instruments held by the Company with the right of offset were in a net asset position and were included in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The table below details the location in the condensed consolidated financial statements of the gain (loss) recognized on derivative financial instruments designated as cash flow hedges for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018 and 2017 (in thousands):

		Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
		2018			2017			2018			2017
Effect of derivative instruments:	Location in Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income:
Gain (loss) recognized in other comprehensive income	Unrealized gain (loss) on interest rate derivative instruments	$	3,643		$	(2,815	)	$	12,459		$	(1,672	)
Gain (loss) reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to net income	Reclassification adjustment for amounts recognized in net income	$	(606	)	$	693		$	(660	)	$	1,505
Total interest expense in which effects of cash flow hedges are recorded	Interest expense	$	13,053		$	11,146		$	26,769		$	21,297

The Company expects approximately $5.3 million will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income as a reduction to interest expense in the next 12 months.

9. Fair Value Measurements

The Company defines fair value based on the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or the exit price that would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company uses a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which are described below:

• Level 1 - Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access.

• Level 2 - Observable inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

• Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

The Company has estimated the fair value of its financial and non-financial instruments using widely accepted valuation techniques and available market information. Considerable judgment and a high degree of subjectivity are involved in developing these estimates and, accordingly, they are not necessarily indicative of amounts that would be realized upon disposition.

17

Recurring Measurements

For assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, quantitative disclosure of their fair value is as follows, which are netted as applicable per the terms of the respective master netting agreements (in thousands):

	Fair Value Measurement Date
	June 30, 2018		December 31, 2017
Location / Description	Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 2)
Other assets
Interest rate swap assets	$	22,637	$	10,838
Total	$	22,637	$	10,838

The fair value of each derivative instrument is based on a discounted cash flow analysis of the expected cash flows under each arrangement. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivative instrument, including the period to maturity, and utilizes observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities, which are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company also incorporates credit value adjustments to appropriately reflect each parties’ nonperformance risk in the fair value measurement, which utilizes Level 3 inputs such as estimates of current credit spreads. However, the Company has assessed that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of the derivatives. As a result, the Company has determined that its derivative valuations in their entirety are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Non-Recurring Measurements

Financial Instruments Not Measured at Fair Value

The table below represents the fair value of financial instruments presented at carrying values in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 (in thousands):

	June 30, 2018				December 31, 2017
	Carrying Value		Estimated Fair Value		Carrying Value		Estimated Fair Value
Total Debt, net of discounts	$	1,124,669	$	1,131,952	$	1,289,835	$	1,303,550
Senior Unsecured Credit Facility	—		—		40,000		40,101
Total	$	1,124,669	$	1,131,952	$	1,329,835	$	1,343,651

The Company estimated the fair value of its total debt, net of discounts, using a weighted average effective interest rate of 4.4% and 3.93% per annum as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The Company has determined that its debt instrument valuations are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

10. Income Taxes

The Company estimated the TRS income tax expense for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018 using an estimated federal and state statutory combined rate of 29.81% and recognized income tax expense of $5.6 million and $10.3 million, respectively.

The Company estimated the TRS income tax expense for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017 using an estimated federal and state statutory combined rate of 40.1% and recognized income tax expense of $5.9 million and $8.1 million, respectively.

11. Stockholders' Equity

Common Stock

In March 2018, the Company entered into an "At-the-Market" ("ATM") program pursuant to an Equity Distribution Agreement ("ATM Agreement") with Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated, Jefferies LLC, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., and Raymond James & Associates, Inc.  In accordance with the terms of the ATM Agreement, the Company may from time to time offer, and sell shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $200 million. During the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018, the Company received gross proceeds of $122.2 million, and paid $1.5 million in transaction fees, from the issuance of 5,090,656 shares of its common stock in accordance with the ATM Agreement. In addition, the Company amortized capitalized transaction costs of $0.7 million during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018 that were previously included in other assets. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had $77.8 millionavailable for sale under the ATM Agreement.

In December 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program pursuant to which the Company is authorized to purchase up to $100 million of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, including pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 plans. In November 2016, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $75 million of the Company's outstanding Common Stock (such repurchase authorizations collectively referred to as the "Repurchase Program"). The Repurchase Program does not have an expiration date. This Repurchase Program may be suspended or discontinued at any time and does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of shares.

No shares were purchased as part of the Repurchase Program during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018. For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017, 132,843 and 240,352 shares were repurchased under the Repurchase Program, at a weighted average price of $17.44 and $17.07 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $2.3 million and $4.1 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had approximately $96.9 million remaining under its share repurchase authorization.

Distributions

The Company declared the following dividends during the six months endedJune 30, 2018:

Dividend per Share/Unit	For the Quarter Ended	Record Date	Payable Date
$0.275	March 31, 2018	March 30, 2018	April 13, 2018
$0.275	June 30, 2018	June 29, 2018	July 13, 2018

Non-Controlling Interest of Common Units in Operating Partnership

As of June 30, 2018, the Operating Partnership had 2,984,633 long-term incentive partnership units (“LTIP Units”) outstanding, representing a 2.6% partnership interest held by the limited partners. Of the 2,984,633 LTIP units outstanding at June 30, 2018, 595,861 units had vested. Only vested LTIP Units may be converted to Common Units of the Operating Partnership, which in turn can be tendered for redemption per the terms of the LTIP Unit award agreements.

As of June 30, 2018, the Company had accrued $243 thousand in dividends related to the LTIP Units, which were paid in July 2018.

12. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing income or loss available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated by dividing income or loss available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, plus any shares that could potentially be outstanding during the period. Any anti-dilutive shares have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation.

Unvested share-based awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and are included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. Accordingly, distributed and undistributed earnings attributable to unvested share-based compensation (participating securities) have been excluded, as applicable, from net income or loss available to common stockholders used in the basic and diluted

19

earnings per share calculations.

Income allocated to non-controlling interest in the Operating Partnership has been excluded from the numerator and Common Units and vested LTIP Units in the Operating Partnership, which may be converted to common shares, have been omitted from the denominator for the purpose of computing diluted earnings per share since including these amounts in the numerator and denominator would have no impact.

The following table reconciles net income attributable to common stockholders to basic and diluted earnings per share (in thousands, except share and per share data):

	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,

13. Share Based Compensation

Restricted Stock Units

In February 2018, the Compensation Committee (the "Compensation Committee") of the Board of Directors of the Company approved the grant of Restricted Stock Units under the Company's 2015 Incentive Award Plan to certain Company employees (the "2018 Restricted Stock Units"). The 2018 Restricted Stock Units include 79,812 Restricted Stock Units that vest over a three-year period based on the holder's continued service with the Company or any of its affiliates and 45,464 performance-based Restricted Stock Units that cliff vest based on the achievement of applicable performance goals over a three-year period. The 2018 Restricted Stock Units have weighted average grant date fair value of $15.92 per share.

Each time-based 2018 Restricted Stock Unit will vest as follows, subject to the employee’s continued service through each applicable vesting date: 33% on February 4, 2019, which is the first anniversary of the vesting commencement date of the award (February 4, 2018), 33% on the second anniversary of the vesting commencement date, and 34% on the third anniversary of the vesting commencement date.

Of the performance-based 2018 Restricted Stock Units, twenty-five percent (25%) are designated as absolute total stockholder return ("TSR") units (the "Absolute TSR Share Units"), and vest based on achievement of varying levels of the Company’s TSR over the three-year performance period. The other seventy-five percent (75%) of the performance-based 2018 Restricted Stock Units are designated as relative TSR share units (the "Relative TSR Share Units") and vest based on the ranking of the Company’s TSR as compared to a defined peer group over the three-year performance period.

20

LTIP Unit Grants

In February 2018, the Compensation Committee approved the issuance of 725,860 performance-based LTIP Units (the "2018 Class A LTIP Units") and 84,505 time-based LTIP Units (the "2018 Time-Based LTIP Units") of the Operating Partnership under the 2015 Incentive Award Plan that had a weighted average grant date fair value of $8.79 per unit.

Each award of 2018 Time-Based LTIP Units will vest as follows, subject to the executive’s continued service through each applicable vesting date: 33% on February 4, 2019, which is the first anniversary of the vesting commencement date of the award (February 4, 2018), 33% on the second anniversary of the vesting commencement date, and 34% on the third anniversary of the vesting commencement date.

A portion of each award of 2018 Class A LTIP Units is designated as a number of “base units.” Twenty-five percent (25%) of the base units are designated as absolute TSR base units, and vest based on achievement of varying levels of the Company’s TSR over the three-year performance period. The other seventy-five percent (75%) of the base units are designated as relative TSR base units and vest based on the ranking of the Company’s TSR as compared to a defined peer group over the three-year performance period.

In May 2018, pursuant to the Company's Director Compensation Program, as amended and restated as of February 21, 2018, the Company approved the issuance of 24,661 fully-vested LTIP Units to the Company's seven non-employee directors with a weighted average grant date fair value of $24.13 per unit.

LTIP Units (other than Class A LTIP Units that have not vested), whether vested or not, receive the same quarterly per-unit distributions as Common Units, which equal the per-share distributions on the Common Stock of the Company. Class A LTIP Units that have not vested receive a quarterly per-unit distribution equal to 10% of the distribution paid on Common Units.

The following is a summary of the unvested incentive awards under the Company's 2014 Share Unit Plan and the 2015 Incentive Award Plan as of June 30, 2018:

	2014 Share Unit Plan Share Units		2015 Incentive Award Plan Restricted Stock Units(1)			2015 Incentive Award Plan LTIP Units(1)			Total
Unvested as of December 31, 2017	48,682		264,302			1,662,073			1,975,057
Granted	—		125,276			835,026			960,302
Vested(2)	(48,682	)	(105,113		)	(108,327		)	(262,122		)

Forfeited	—		—			—			—
Unvested as of June 30, 2018	—		281,924			2,388,772			2,670,696
Weighted average fair value of unvested shares/units	—		$	14.35		$	8.23		$	8.88

(1) Includes time-based and performance-based units.

(2) During the six months endedJune 30, 2018, 49,826 shares of common stock were withheld by the Company upon the settlement of the applicable award in order to satisfy minimum federal and state tax withholding requirements with respect to Share Units and Restricted Stock Units under the 2014 Share Unit Plan and the 2015 Incentive Award Plan.

21

The fair value of the time-based Restricted Stock Units and Time-Based LTIP Units are determined based on the closing price of the Company’s Common Stock on the grant date and compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The grant date fair values of performance-based awards for the 2018 Restricted Stock Units and the 2018 Class A LTIP Units were determined based on a Monte Carlo simulation method with the following assumptions, and compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the performance period:

Performance Award Grant Date	Percentage of Total Award	Grant Date Fair Value by Component (in dollars)	Volatility	Interest Rate	Dividend Yield
February 20, 2018
Absolute TSR Restricted Stock Units	25%	$6.54	24.52%	1.82% - 2.47%	5.553%
Relative TSR Restricted Stock Units	75%	$10.44	24.52%	1.82% - 2.47%	5.553%
Absolute TSR Class A LTIPs	25%	$6.60	24.52%	1.82% - 2.47%	5.553%
Relative TSR Class A LTIPs	75%	$10.13	24.52%	1.82% - 2.47%	5.553%

The absolute and relative stockholder returns are market conditions as defined by Accounting Standard Codification ("ASC") 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation. Market conditions include provisions wherein the vesting condition is met through the achievement of a specific value of the Company’s Common Stock, which is total stockholder return in this case. Market conditions differ from other performance awards under ASC 718 in that the probability of attaining the condition (and thus vesting of the units or shares) is reflected in the initial grant date fair value of the award. Accordingly, it is not appropriate to reconsider the probability of vesting in the award subsequent to the initial measurement of the award, nor is it appropriate to reverse any of the expense if the condition is not met.

Therefore, once the expense for these awards is measured, the expense must be recognized over the service period regardless of whether the target is met, or at what level the target is met. Expense may only be reversed if the holder of the instrument forfeits the award as a result of the holder's termination of service of the Company prior to vesting.

For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018 the Company recognized approximately $2.2 million and $4.2 million, respectively, of share-based compensation expense (net of forfeitures) related to Share units, Restricted Stock Units, and LTIP Units provided to certain of its executive officers and other members of management. In addition, during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018 we recognized $595 thousand of share-based compensation expense, related to LTIP units that were provided to the Company's Board of Directors and we capitalized approximately $138 thousand and $268 thousand, respectively, related to Restricted Stock Units provided to certain members of management that oversee development and capital projects on behalf of the Company. As of June 30, 2018, there was $14.3 million of total unrecognized compensation costs related to unvested Restricted Stock Units, Class A LTIP Units and Time-Based LTIP Units issued under the 2015 Incentive Award Plan, which are expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average period of 2 additional years.

For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017, the Company recognized approximately $2.4 million and $4.6 million, respectively, of share-based compensation expense (net of forfeitures) related to Share Units, Restricted Stock Units, and LTIP Units provided to certain of its executive officers and other members of management. In addition, we recognized $595 thousand of share-based compensation expense, related to LTIP units, that were provided to the Company's Board of Directors and we capitalized approximately $152 thousand and $306 thousand, respectively, related to Restricted Stock Units provided to certain members of management that oversee development and capital projects on behalf of the Company.

14. Commitments and Contingencies

Certain leases and management agreements require the Company to reserve funds relating to replacements and renewals of the hotels' furniture, fixtures and equipment. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had a balance of $48.8 million and $46.6 million, respectively, in reserves for such future improvements. This amount is included in restricted cash and escrows on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

The Company is subject, from time to time, to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. While the resolution of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes, based on currently available information, that the final outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Certain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, other than purely historical information, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These statements include statements about Xenia’s plans, objectives, strategies, financial performance and outlook, trends, the amount and timing of future cash distributions, prospects or future events and involve known and unknown risks that are difficult to predict. As a result, our actual financial results, performance, achievements or prospects may differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “may,” “could,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “seek,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “guidance,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” “likely,” “will,” “would,” “illustrative” and variations of these terms and similar expressions, or the negative of these terms or similar expressions. Such forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by Xenia and its management based on their knowledge and understanding of the business and industry, are inherently uncertain. These statements are not guarantees of future performance, and stockholders should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. There are a number of risks, uncertainties and other important factors, many of which are beyond our control, that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Such risks, uncertainties and other important factors include, among others: the risks, uncertainties and factors set forth in our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), including our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as may be updated elsewhere in this report; and other Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q that we have filed or will file with the SEC; business, financial and operating risks inherent to real estate investments and the lodging industry; seasonal and cyclical volatility in the lodging industry; macroeconomic and other factors beyond our control that can adversely affect and reduce demand for hotel rooms; contraction in the global economy or low levels of economic growth; levels of spending in business and leisure segments as well as consumer confidence; declines in occupancy and average daily rate; fluctuations in the supply and demand for hotel rooms; changes in the competitive environment in lodging industry and the markets where we own hotels; events beyond our control, such as war, terrorist attacks, travel-related health concerns and natural disasters; cyber incidents and information technology failures; our reliance on third-party hotel management companies to operate and manage our hotels; our ability to maintain good relationships with our third-party hotel management companies and franchisors; our failure to maintain brand operating standards; our ability to maintain our brand licenses at our hotels; relationships with labor unions and changes in labor laws; loss of our senior management team or key personnel; our ability to identify and consummate acquisitions of additional hotels; our ability to integrate and successfully operate any hotel properties acquired in the future and the risks associated with these hotel properties; the impact of hotel renovations, repositioning, redevelopments and re-branding activities; our ability to access capital for renovations and acquisitions on terms and at times that are acceptable to us; the fixed cost nature of hotel ownership; our ability to service our debt; changes in interest rates and operating costs; compliance with regulatory regimes and local laws; uninsured or under insured losses, including those relating to natural disasters or terrorism; changes in distribution channels, such as through internet travel intermediaries; the amount of debt that we currently have or may incur in the future; provisions in our debt agreements that may restrict the operation of our business; our organizational and governance structure; our status as a real estate investment trust (a “REIT”); our taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) lessee structure; the cost of compliance with and liabilities under environmental, health and safety laws; adverse litigation judgments or settlements; changes in real estate and zoning laws and increase in real property tax rates; changes in federal, state or local tax law, including legislative, administrative, regulatory or other actions affecting REITs; changes in governmental regulations or interpretations thereof; and estimates relating to our ability to make distributions to our stockholders in the future.

These factors are not necessarily all of the important factors that could cause our actual financial results, performance, achievements or prospects to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by any of our forward-looking statements. Other unknown or unpredictable factors also could harm our results. All forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements set forth above. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we do not undertake or assume any obligation to update publicly any of these forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, new information or future events, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting forward-looking statements, except to the extent required by applicable laws. If we update one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be drawn that we will make additional updates with respect to those or other forward-looking statements. 

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes, which appear elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview

Xenia Hotels & Resorts, Inc. ("we", "us", "our", "Xenia" or the "Company") is a self-advised and self-administered REIT that invests primarily in premium full service and lifestyle hotels, with a focus on the top 25 lodging markets as well as key leisure destinations in the United States ("U.S."). A premium full service hotel refers to a hotel defined as "upper upscale" or "luxury" by STR Inc. ("STR"), but excluding hotels referred to as "lifestyle" hotels. A lifestyle hotel refers to an innovative hotel with a focus on providing a unique and individualized guest experience in a smaller footprint by combining traditional hotel services with modern technologies and placing an emphasis on local influence. As of June 30, 2018, we owned 38 hotels, 36 of which are wholly owned, comprising 10,852 rooms, across 17 states and the District of Columbia, and had a 75% ownership interest in two hotels owned through two consolidated investments in real estate entities. Our hotels are operated and/or licensed by industry leaders such as Marriott ®, Kimpton ®, Hyatt ®, Fairmont ®, Hilton ®, and Loews ®, as well as leading independent management companies.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Operating Partnership, XHR Holding, and its consolidated investments in real estate entities. The Company's subsidiaries and consolidated investments in real estate entities generally consist of limited liability companies, limited partnerships and the TRS. The effects of all inter-company transactions have been eliminated. Corporate costs directly associated with our principal executive offices, personnel and other administrative costs are reflected as general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

Our Revenues and Expenses

Our revenue is primarily derived from hotel operations, including rooms revenue, food and beverage revenue and other revenue, which consists of parking, other guest services and tenant leases, among other items.

Our operating costs and expenses consist of the costs to provide hotel services, including rooms expense, food and beverage expense, management fees and other direct and indirect operating expenses. Rooms expense includes housekeeping wages and associated payroll taxes, room supplies, laundry services and front desk costs. Food and beverage expense primarily includes the cost of food, beverages and associated labor. Other direct and indirect hotel expenses include labor and other costs associated with the other operating department revenue, as well as labor and other costs associated with general and administrative departments, sales and marketing, information technology and telecommunications, repairs and maintenance and utility costs. Our hotels are managed by independent, third-party management companies under long-term agreements under which the management companies typically earn base and incentive management fees based on the levels of revenues and profitability of each individual hotel.

Key Indicators of Operating Performance

We measure hotel results of operations and the operating performance of our business by evaluating financial and non-financial metrics such as Revenue Per Available Room ("RevPAR"); average daily rate ("ADR"); occupancy rate ("occupancy"); earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization for real estate ("EBITDAre") and Adjusted EBITDAre ("Adjusted EBITDAre"); and funds from operations ("FFO") and Adjusted FFO ("Adjusted FFO"). We evaluate individual hotel and company-wide performance with comparisons to budgets, prior periods and competing properties. ADR, occupancy and RevPAR may be impacted by macroeconomic factors as well as regional and local economies and events. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for further discussion of the Company's use, definitions and limitations of EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDAre, FFO and Adjusted FFO and why management believes these financial measures are useful to investors.

Results of Operations

Overview

The U.S. lodging industry has historically exhibited a strong correlation to U.S. GDP, which grew approximately 4.1% during the second quarter of 2018 according to the U.S. Department of Commerce, compared to approximately 2.6% growth in the second quarter of 2017. This was driven by nonresidential fixed investment, consumer spending on goods and services, exports, and federal, state and local government spending coupled with a stable unemployment rate below 5%. In addition to these favorable macroeconomic factors, demand growth in the U.S. lodging industry was 3.1% during the second quarter of 2018, which outpaced supply growth of 2%. These factors combined led to an increase in industry RevPAR of 4.0% for the second quarter of 2018 compared to 2017 and a 3.8% increase for the six months endedJune 30, 2018 compared to 2017. This was primarily driven by ADR growth of 2.9% and an increase in occupancy of 1.1% for the second quarter of 2018 and ADR growth of 2.7% and an increase in occupancy of 1% for the six months endedJune 30, 2018, per industry reports.

Our total portfolio RevPAR, which includes the results of hotels that were sold or acquired during the respective periods presented, increased 8.5% to $178.04 for the second quarter of 2018 compared to $164.10 for the second quarter of 2017 and increased 8.0% to $168.25 for the six months endedJune 30, 2018 compared to $155.72for the six months endedJune 30, 2017. These increases in our total portfolio RevPAR compared to 2017 were largely driven by changes in our portfolio composition. Between April and October 2017, we acquired four premium full service hotels and completed the disposition of seven hotels, most of which were select service upscale hotels. In March 2018, we sold the 645-room Aston Waikiki Beach Hotel. In addition to increasing our RevPAR, these transactions resulted in a change in the seasonality of our portfolio's earnings, as the hotels acquired generally have their highest demand during the first and second quarters.

For our 34-comparable hotels, renovation projects at 11 hotels during the first quarter of 2018, which included guest room renovations at seven hotels representing nearly 15% of our total guest room count, caused disruption in rooms revenue. These renovations were completed or substantially completed by the end of the first quarter. During the second quarter of 2018, we began several renovation projections including guest room renovations at Marriott Dallas City Center and Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress and the renovation of the Marriott Woodlands Waterway Hotel & Convention Center meeting space.

Net income attributable to common stockholders decreased 58.5% during the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to 2017, primarily due to the gain on sale from the disposition of six hotels sold during the second quarter of 2017. Net income was also impacted by a $1.9 million increase in interest expense due to a higher balance of outstanding debt and a higher weighted average interest rate compared to the second quarter of 2017. Additional operating income of $4.4 million was contributed from the four acquisitions since May 2017 offset by the eight dispositions since April 2017 and from a $2.2 million increase in operating income from our 34-comparable hotels during the second quarter of 2018 compared to 2017. In addition, we recognized a $2.6 million gain on business interruption insurance for proceeds received during the second quarter of 2018, which were attributed to claims for Hyatt Centric Key West Resort & Spa that was impacted by Hurricane Irma in September 2017.

Net income attributable to common stockholders increased 8.9% during the six months endedJune 30, 2018 compared to 2017, primarily due to the difference in the timing of the disposition of Aston Waikiki Beach Hotel that was sold in March 2018 compared to six hotels during the second quarter of 2017. Additional operating income of $22.2 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2018 was contributed from the four acquisitions since May 2017 offset by the eight dispositions since April 2017 and from a $2.6 million gain on business interruption insurance attributed to Hyatt Centric Key West Resort & Spa. These increases were offset by a reduction in net income from a $5.5 million increase in interest expense, a $2.3 million increase in income tax expense and a reduction in operating income from our 34-comparable hotels of $3.1 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2018 compared to 2017.

Adjusted EBITDAre attributable to common stock and unit holders for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018 increased 12.9% and 18.0%, respectively, and Adjusted FFO attributable to common stock and unit holders increased 13.6% and 15.5%, respectively, compared to 2017. These increases quarter over quarter were primarily attributed to an increase in our 34-comparable hotel's RevPAR and the gain on business interruption insurance recognized during the second quarter of 2018. These increases for the six months endedJune 30, 2018 were primarily attributed to the changes in our portfolio composition from acquisitions and dispositions and the timing of such transactions. Refer to "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for the definition of these financial measures, a description of how they are useful to investors as key supplemental measures of our operating performance and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to net income attributable to common stock and unit holders.

Between April and October 2017, we acquired four premium full service hotels and completed the disposition of seven hotels, most of which were select service upscale hotels. In March 2018, we sold the 645-room Aston Waikiki Beach Hotel.

Rooms revenues increased by $11.0 million, or 6.6%, to $175.8 million for the three months endedJune 30, 2018 from $164.9 million for the three months endedJune 30, 2017. The following amounts are the primary drivers of the changes quarter-over-quarter:

• $25.4 million increase contributed by the four hotels acquired since May 2017, which included the Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress, Hyatt Regency Scottsdale Resort & Spa at Gainey Ranch, Royal Palms Resort & Spa and The Ritz-Carlton, Pentagon City; and

• $19.0 million decrease attributed to the disposition of eight hotels since April 2017.

Excluding the amounts above, rooms revenues increased $4.6 million, or 3.2%, for the remainder of our 34-comparable hotels.

Food and beverage revenues

The increases in food and beverage revenues for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018 compared to 2017 is largely driven by the timing of transaction activity during the last year and changes in portfolio composition. The four hotels acquired in 2017 are full service hotels that offer various restaurant venues, in addition to significantly larger meeting facilities and event space, all of which contribute higher food and beverage revenue compared to the eight hotels sold during these periods, most of which were select service upscale hotels. 

Food and beverage revenues increased by $19.9 million, or 29.9%, to $86.4 million for the three months endedJune 30, 2018 from $66.6 million for the three months endedJune 30, 2017. The following amounts are the primary drivers of the changes quarter-over-quarter:

• $2.2 million decrease attributed to the disposition of eight hotels since April 2017.

Excluding the amounts above, food and beverage revenues increased $0.2 million, or 0.1%, for the remainder of our 34-comparable hotels.

27

Other revenues

The increase in other revenues was largely driven by the timing of transaction activity during the last year as the four hotels acquired have more amenities and resort fees compared to the properties sold. 

Other revenues increased by $1.8 million, or 14.2%, to $14.8 million for the three months endedJune 30, 2018 from $13.0 million for the three months endedJune 30, 2017. The following amounts are the primary drivers of the changes quarter-over-quarter:

• $4.0 million increase contributed by the four hotels acquired since May 2017, which included the Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress, Hyatt Regency Scottsdale Resort & Spa at Gainey Ranch, Royal Palms Resort & Spa and The Ritz-Carlton, Pentagon City primarily due to resort fees, parking and spa revenue; and

• $3.2 million decrease attributed to the disposition of eight hotels since April 2017.

Excluding the amounts above, other revenues decreased $1.0 million, or 5.3%, for the remainder of our 34-comparable hotels.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $2.0 million, or 5.4%, to $38.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 from $36.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and $4.3 million, or 5.9%, to $77.4 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2018 from $73.1 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2017. These increases were the result of the acquisition of four hotels since May 2017 and $55.9 million of capital expenditures during the first half of 2018, which was offset by a reduction attributed to the disposition of eight hotels since April 2017.

29

Real estate taxes, personal property taxes and insurance

Real estate taxes, personal property taxes and insurance expense increased $1.1 million, or 10.5%, to $11.8 million for the three months endedJune 30, 2018 from $10.7 million for the three months endedJune 30, 2017 and $1.6 million, or 7.4%, to $23.7 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2018 from $22.1 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2017. These increases were primarily attributed to a net increase from the acquisition of four hotels since May 2017 offset by a reduction in expenses attributed to the disposition of eight hotels since April 2017.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses increased $29 thousand, or 0.4%, to $7.9 million for the three months endedJune 30, 2018 from $7.8 million for the three months endedJune 30, 2017 and decreased $0.3 million, or 1.8%, to $15.9 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2018 from $16.2 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2017, which was primarily attributable to decreases in share-based compensation expense and other employee related costs, professional fees and state taxes compared to 2017.

Gain on business interruption insurance

Gain on business interruption insurance was $2.6 million for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018, which was attributed to insurance proceeds related to business lost at Hyatt Centric Key West Resort & Spa as a result of Hurricane Irma. Of the $2.6 million recognized, $1.4 millionof the proceeds related to lost income in the third and fourth quarters of 2017, with the remaining$1.2 millionattributable to lost income from the first quarter of 2018.

Acquisition and terminated transaction costs

Acquisition and terminated transaction costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 were related to dead deal costs. Acquisition and terminated transaction costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 were primarily attributable to the acquisition of the Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress in May 2017.

Gain on sale of investment properties

The gain on sale of investment properties for the six months endedJune 30, 2018 was primarily attributed to the sale of the Aston Waikiki Beach Hotel in March 2018. The gain on sale of investment properties for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017 was related to the sale of six hotels during the second quarter of 2017.

Other income

Other income increased $0.3 million, or 139.8%, to $0.4 million for the three months endedJune 30, 2018 from $0.2 million for the three months endedJune 30, 2017 and increased $0.5 million, or 146.2%, to $0.8 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2018 from $0.3 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2017. This increase was primarily attributed to additional interest income on corporate level cash.

30

Interest expense

Interest expense increased $1.9 million, or 17.1%, to $13.1 million for the three months endedJune 30, 2018 from $11.1 million for the three months endedJune 30, 2017 and $5.5 million, or 25.7%, to $26.8 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2018 from $21.3 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2017. This was primarily driven by an increase in the average outstanding debt in 2018 compared to 2017, the timing of debt draws and repayments, and a higher weighted average interest rate.

Loss on extinguishment of debt

The loss on extinguishment of debt for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018 was attributable to the write off of unamortized loan costs for the prepayment of five mortgage loans during the period. The loss on extinguishment of debt for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017 was attributable to the write off of unamortized loan costs for the prepayment of three mortgage loans during the period.

Income tax expense

Income tax expense decreased $0.2 million, or 4.1%, to $5.6 million for the three months endedJune 30, 2018 from $5.9 million for the three months endedJune 30, 2017 and increased $2.3 million, or 28.0%, to $10.3 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2018 from $8.1 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2017. The change from prior year was primarily attributable to higher taxable income from the timing of the four acquisitions since May 2017 and the seasonality of earnings from such hotels, which is generally highest during the first and second quarters. These increases were offset by a decrease in taxable income from the eight dispositions since April 2017 coupled with a lower effective tax rate in 2018 compared to 2017.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements from cash on hand, cash flow from operations, borrowings under our unsecured revolving credit facility, use of our unencumbered asset base, the ability to refinance or extend our maturing debt as it becomes due, and equity proceeds from the sale of our common stock. The objectives of our cash management policy are to maintain the availability of liquidity and minimize operational costs. Further, we have an investment policy that is focused on the preservation of capital and maximizing the return on new and existing investments.

On a long-term basis, our objectives are to maximize revenue and profits generated by our existing properties and acquired hotels, to further enhance the value of our portfolio and produce an attractive current yield, as well as to generate sustainable and predictable cash flow from our operations to distribute to our stockholders. To the extent we are able to successfully improve the performance of our portfolio, we believe this will result in increased operating cash flows. Additionally, we may meet our long-term liquidity requirements through additional borrowings, the issuance of equity and debt securities, and/or proceeds from the sales of hotels.

In March 2018, the Company entered into an "At-the-Market" ("ATM") program pursuant to an Equity Distribution Agreement ("ATM Agreement") with Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated, Jefferies LLC, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc. and Raymond James & Associates, Inc.  In accordance with the terms of the ATM Agreement, the Company may from time to time offer and sell shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $200 million. During the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018, the Company received gross proceeds of $122.2 million, and paid $1.5 million in transaction fees, from the issuance of 5,090,656 shares of its common stock in accordance with the ATM Agreement. In addition, the Company amortized capitalized transaction costs of $0.7 million during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018 that were previously included in other assets. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had $77.8 million available for sale under the ATM Agreement.

We may, from time to time, seek to retire or purchase additional amounts of our outstanding equity through cash purchases and/or exchanges for other securities in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, including pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material. In December 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program pursuant to which we are authorized to purchase up to $100 million of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock, in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, including pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 plans. In November 2016, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $75 million of the Company's outstanding Common Stock (such repurchase authorizations collectively referred to as the "Repurchase Program"). The Repurchase Program does not have an expiration date. This Repurchase Program may be suspended or discontinued at any time, and does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of shares.

31

No shares were purchased as part of the Repurchase Program for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018. For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017, 132,843 and 240,352 shares were repurchased under the Repurchase Program, at a weighted average price of $17.44 and $17.07 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $2.3 million and $4.1 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had approximately $96.9 million remaining under its share repurchase authorization.

As of June 30, 2018, we had $184.8 million of consolidated cash and cash equivalents and $63.0 million of restricted cash and escrows. The restricted cash as of June 30, 2018 primarily consists of cash held in restricted escrows of $3.8 million for real estate taxes and insurance, $10.4 million in disposition related hold back escrows and capital spending reserves, and $48.8 million related to lodging furniture, fixtures and equipment reserves as required per the terms of our management and franchise agreements.

Mortgages and Unsecured Term Loans

As of June 30, 2018, our outstanding total debt was $1.1 billion and had a weighted average interest rate of 3.78%.

In January 2018, we obtained a mortgage loan in the amount of $65 million, which is collateralized by The Ritz-Carlton, Pentagon City. The loan matures in January 2025 and bears an interest rate of LIBOR plus 210 basis points. The Company used the proceeds from this loan to repay the outstanding balance on its senior unsecured credit facility and for general corporate purposes. During the second quarter of 2018, we entered into various swap agreements to fix the interest rate through January 2023. The effective interest rate on the loan will be 3.69% through January 2019 after which the rate will increase to 4.95% through January 2023.

During the six months ended June 30, 2018 we continued to reduce our exposure to variable rate debt. At June 30, 2018 our variable rate debt represented 13% of total debt compared to 28% of total debt at December 31, 2017. We accomplished this through the execution of new interest rate swaps and by electing the prepayment option per the terms of the following mortgage loan agreements:

Mortgage Loan	Principal Repaid (in millions)		Original Maturity	Repayment Date
Hotel Monaco Chicago(1)	$	18.3	01/2019	02/2018
Andaz Savannah(1)	21.5		01/2019	04/2018
Hotel Monaco Denver	41.0		01/2019	05/2018
Loews New Orleans Hotel(1)	37.5		02/2019	05/2018
Westin Galleria Houston & Westin Oaks Houston at The Galleria(1)	110.0		05/2019	06/2018
Total repayments during the six months ended June 30, 2018	$	228.3

(1) Mortgage loan had a variable interest rate.

Derivatives

As of June 30, 2018, we had various interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $728.5 million. These swaps fix the variable rate for five of our hotel mortgage loans for a portion of or the entire term of the mortgage loan and fix LIBOR for a portion of or the entire term of our three unsecured term loans. The unsecured term loan spreads may vary, as they are determined by the Company's leverage ratio.

Credit facility

In January 2018, the Company entered into an amended and restated unsecured revolving credit facility with a syndicate of bank lenders. The amendment upsized the credit facility from $400 million to $500 million and extended the maturity an additional three years to February 2022, with two additional six-month extension options. The credit facility’s interest rate is now based on a pricing grid with a range of 150 to 225 basis points over LIBOR as determined by the Company’s leverage ratio, a reduction from the previous pricing grid which ranged from 150 to 245 basis points over LIBOR.

As of June 30, 2018, we had no outstanding balance under the senior unsecured revolving credit facility.

Sources and Uses of Cash

Our principal sources of cash are cash flows generated from operations and borrowings under debt financings, including draws on our revolving credit facility. We may also obtain cash from various types of equity offerings, including our ATM program, or

32

the sale of our hotels. Our principal uses of cash are asset acquisitions, capital investments, routine debt service and debt repayments, operating costs, corporate expenses and dividends. We may also elect to use cash to buy back our common stock under the Repurchase Program.

Comparison of the Six Months EndedJune 30, 2018 to the Six Months EndedJune 30, 2017

The table below presents summary cash flow information for the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows (in thousands):

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2018			2017
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	130,401		$	110,138
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities	136,062			(47,968		)
Net cash used in financing activities	(149,058		)	(80,354		)
Increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	117,405		$	(18,184	)
Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, at beginning of year	130,404			287,027
Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, at end of period	$	247,809		$	268,843

Operating

• Cash provided by operating activities was $130.4 million and $110.1 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Our cash flows provided by operating activities generally consist of the net cash generated by our hotel operations, partially offset by the cash paid for corporate expenses and other working capital changes. Our cash flows provided by operating activities may also be affected by changes in our portfolio resulting from hotel acquisitions, dispositions or renovations. The net increase to cash provided by operating activities during the six months endedJune 30, 2018 was primarily due to changes in our portfolio composition reflecting completed acquisitions and dispositions and the timing of such transactions. Refer to the "Results of Operations" section for further discussion of our operating results for the six months endedJune 30, 2018 and 2017.

Investing

• Cash provided by investing activities was $136.1 million and cash used in investing activities was $48.0 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2018, and 2017, respectively. Cash provided by investing activities for the six months endedJune 30, 2018 was primarily due to (i) the disposition of Aston Waikiki Beach Hotel for net proceeds of $196.9 million offset by (ii) $55.9 million in capital improvements at our hotel properties. Cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was primarily due to (i) the acquisition of the Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress for $205.5 million, and (ii) $29.3 million in capital improvements at our hotel properties, offset by (iii) $186.9 million in proceeds from the disposition of six hotels during the first half of 2017. 

Financing

• Cash used in financing activities was $149.1 million and $80.4 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2018, and 2017, respectively. Cash used in financing activities for the six months endedJune 30, 2018 was primarily attributed to (i) the payment of $59.4 million in dividends to common stockholders and Operating Partnership unit holders, (ii) the repayment of mortgage debt totaling $228.3 million, (iii) the repayment of the outstanding balance on the line of credit totaling $40.0 million and (iv) payment of $3.6 million in loan costs attributed to the amended and restated unsecured revolving credit facility and new mortgage loan entered into during the first quarter of 2018. These decreases were offset by proceeds of (i) $120.1 million, net of transaction costs, from the sale of our common stock through the ATM program and (ii) $65 million from the funding of mortgage debt. Cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was primarily comprised of (i) the repayment of mortgage debt totaling $127.9 million, (ii) $5.9 million used to repurchase common shares, of which $4.1 million was under the Repurchase Program and $1.8 million was used to redeem shares of common stock to satisfy employee withholding requirements in connection with stock compensation vesting, and (iii) the payment of $59.3 million in dividends to common stockholders and Operating Partnership unit holders offset by (iv) proceeds of $115 million from the funding of mortgage debt. 

Capital Expenditures and Reserve Funds

We maintain each of our properties in good repair and condition and in conformity with applicable laws and regulations, franchise agreements and management agreements. Routine capital expenditures are administered by the hotel management companies. However, we have approval rights over the capital expenditures as part of the annual budget process for each of our

33

properties. From time to time, certain of our hotels may be undergoing renovations as a result of our decision to upgrade portions of the hotels, such as guest rooms, public space, meeting space and/or restaurants, in order to better compete with other hotels in our markets. In addition, upon the acquisition of a hotel we may be required to complete a property improvement plan in order to bring the hotel up to the respective brand standards. If permitted by the terms of the management agreement, funding for a renovation will first come from the furniture, fixtures and equipment reserves. We are obligated to maintain reserve funds with respect to certain agreements with our hotel management companies, franchisors and lenders to provide funds, generally 3% to 5% of hotel revenues, sufficient to cover the cost of certain capital improvements to the hotels and to periodically replace and update furniture, fixtures and equipment. Certain of the agreements require that we reserve this cash in separate accounts. To the extent that the furniture, fixtures and equipment reserves are not available or adequate to cover the cost of the renovation, we may fund a portion of the renovation with cash on hand, borrowings from our unsecured revolving credit facility and/or other sources of available liquidity. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we had a total of $48.8 million and $46.6 million, respectively, of furniture, fixtures and equipment reserves. We have been and will continue to be prudent with respect to our capital spending, taking into account our cash flows from operations.

During the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018, we made total capital expenditures of $24.4 million and $55.9 million, respectively. During the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017, we made total capital expenditures of $16.1 million and $29.3 million, respectively.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2018, we have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We consider the following non-GAAP financial measures useful to investors as key supplemental measures of our operating performance: EBITDA, EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDAre, FFO and Adjusted FFO. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered along with, but not as alternatives to, net income or loss, operating profit, cash from operations, or any other operating performance measure as prescribed per GAAP.

EBITDA, EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre

EBITDA is a commonly used measure of performance in many industries and is defined as net income or loss (calculated in accordance with GAAP) excluding interest expense, provision for income taxes (including income taxes applicable to sale of assets) and depreciation and amortization. We consider EBITDA useful to an investor regarding our results of operations, in evaluating and facilitating comparisons of our operating performance between periods and between REITs by removing the impact of our capital structure (primarily interest expense) and asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) from our operating results, even though EBITDA does not represent an amount that accrues directly to common stockholders. In addition, EBITDA is used as one measure in determining the value of hotel acquisitions and dispositions and along with FFO and Adjusted FFO, it is used by management in the annual budget process for compensation programs.

We then calculate EBITDAre in accordance with standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("Nareit"), which we adopted on January 1, 2018. Nareit defines EBITDAre as EBITDA plus or minus losses and gains on the disposition of depreciated property, including gains/losses on change of control, plus impairment write-downs of depreciated property and of investments in unconsolidated affiliates caused by a decrease in value of depreciated property in the affiliate, and adjustments to reflect the entity's share of EBITDAre of unconsolidated affiliates.

34

We further adjust EBITDAre to exclude the impact of non-controlling interests in consolidated entities other than our Operating Partnership units because our Operating Partnership units may be redeemed for common stock. We believe it is meaningful for the investor to understand Adjusted EBITDAre attributable to all common stock and Operating Partnership unit holders. We also adjust EBITDAre for certain additional items such as hotel property acquisition and terminated transaction costs, amortization of share-based compensation, the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles, and other costs we believe do not represent recurring operations and are not indicative of the performance of our underlying hotel property entities. We believe Adjusted EBITDAre attributable to common stock and units holders provides investors with another financial measure in evaluating and facilitating comparison of operating performance between periods and between REITs that report similar measures.

Prior to the adoption of EBITDAre on January 1, 2018, we historically presented EBITDA attributable to common stock and unit holders, which excluded depreciation expense related to corporate level assets and the allocation of EBITDA to noncontrolling interests in our consolidated investments in real estate entities. In order to calculate EBITDAre in accordance with Nareit's definition, these adjustments are now made to derive Adjusted EBITDAre. Therefore, there were no retrospective changes to Adjusted EBITDA as historically presented upon conversion to Adjusted EBITDAre.

FFO and Adjusted FFO

We calculate FFO in accordance with standards established by the Nareit, which defines FFO as net income or loss (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding real estate-related depreciation, amortization and impairments, gains (losses) from sales of real estate, the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles, similar adjustments for partnerships and joint ventures, and items classified by GAAP as extraordinary. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, most industry investors consider presentations of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. We believe that the presentation of FFO provides useful supplemental information to investors regarding our operating performance by excluding the effect of real estate depreciation and amortization, gains (losses) from sales for real estate, impairments of real estate assets, extraordinary items and the portion of these items related to unconsolidated entities, all of which are based on historical cost accounting and which may be of lesser significance in evaluating current performance. We believe that the presentation of FFO can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between REITs, even though FFO does not represent an amount that accrues directly to common stockholders. Our calculation of FFO may not be comparable to measures calculated by other companies who do not use the Nareit definition of FFO or do not calculate FFO per diluted share in accordance with Nareit guidance. Additionally, FFO may not be helpful when comparing us to non-REITs. We present FFO attributable to common stock and unit holders, which includes our Operating Partnership units because our Operating Partnership units may be redeemed for common stock. We believe it is meaningful for the investor to understand FFO attributable to all common stock and Operating Partnership unit holders.

We further adjust FFO for certain additional items that are not in Nareit’s definition of FFO such as hotel property acquisition and pursuit costs, amortization of debt origination costs and share-based compensation, and other expenses we believe do not represent recurring operations. We believe that Adjusted FFO provides investors with useful supplemental information that may facilitate comparisons of ongoing operating performance between periods and between REITs that make similar adjustments to FFO and is beneficial to investors’ complete understanding of our operating performance.

Use and Limitations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA, EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDAre, FFO, and Adjusted FFO do not represent cash generated from operating activities under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income or loss, operating profit, cash flows from operations or any other operating performance measure prescribed by GAAP. Although we present and use EBITDA, EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDAre, FFO and Adjusted FFO because we believe they are useful to investors in evaluating and facilitating comparisons of our operating performance between periods and between REITs that report similar measures, the use of these non-GAAP measures has certain limitations as analytical tools. These non-GAAP financial measures are not measures of our liquidity, nor are they indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to fund capital expenditures, contractual commitments, working capital, service debt or make cash distributions. These measurements do not reflect cash expenditures for long-term assets and other items that we have incurred and will incur. These non-GAAP financial measures may include funds that may not be available for management’s discretionary use due to functional requirements to conserve funds for capital expenditures, property acquisitions, and other commitments and uncertainties. These non-GAAP financial measures as presented may not be comparable to non-GAAP financial measures as calculated by other real estate companies.

We compensate for these limitations by separately considering the impact of these excluded items to the extent they are material to operating decisions or assessments of our operating performance. Our reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP financial measures, and our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, include interest expense, and other excluded items, all of which should be considered when evaluating our performance, as well as the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures reflect additional ways of viewing our operations that we believe, when viewed with our GAAP results and the reconciliations to the corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business than could be obtained absent this disclosure. We strongly encourage investors to review our financial information in its entirety and not to rely on a single financial measure.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements and the reported

37

amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual amounts may differ significantly from these estimates and assumptions. We evaluate our estimates, assumptions and judgments to confirm that they are reasonable and appropriate on an ongoing basis, based on information that is then available to us as well as our experience relating to various matters. All of our significant accounting policies, including certain critical accounting policies, are disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 and Note 2 in the condensed consolidated financial statements included herein.

Inflation

We rely on the performance of the hotels to increase revenues to keep pace with inflation. Generally, our hotel operators possess the ability to adjust room rates daily, except for group or corporate rates contractually committed to in advance, although competitive pressures may limit the ability of our operators to raise rates faster than inflation or even at the same rate.

Seasonality

Demand in the lodging industry is affected by recurring seasonal patterns, which are greatly influenced by overall economic cycles, the geographic locations of the hotels and the customer mix at the hotels. Generally, we expect our revenues and operating income to be the highest during the first and second quarters of the year followed by the third and fourth quarters based on our current portfolio composition assuming a stable macroeconomic environment.

New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Implemented

See Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included herein for additional information related to recently issued accounting pronouncements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are subject to market risk associated with changes in interest rates both in terms of variable-rate debt and the price of new fixed-rate debt upon maturity of existing debt and for acquisitions. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. If market rates of interest on all of the variable rate debt as of June 30, 2018 permanently increased or decreased by 1%, the increase or decrease in interest expense on the variable rate debt would decrease or increase future earnings and cash flows by approximately $1.4 million per annum. If market rates of interest on all of the variable rate debt as of December 31, 2017 permanently increased or decreased by 1%, the increase or decrease in interest expense on the variable rate debt would decrease or increase future earnings and cash flows by approximately $3.3 million per annum.

With regard to our variable rate financing, we assess interest rate cash flow risk by continually identifying and monitoring changes in interest rate exposures that may adversely impact expected future cash flows and by evaluating hedging opportunities. We maintain risk management control systems to monitor interest rate cash flow risk attributable to both of our outstanding or forecasted debt obligations as well as our potential offsetting hedge positions. The risk management control systems involve the use of analytical techniques, including cash flow sensitivity analysis, to estimate the expected impact of changes in interest rates on our future cash flows.

We monitor interest rate risk using a variety of techniques, including periodically evaluating fixed interest rate quotes on all variable rate debt and the costs associated with converting the debt to fixed rate debt. Also, existing fixed and variable rate loans that are scheduled to mature in the next year or two are evaluated for possible early refinancing or extension due to consideration given to current interest rates. We have taken significant steps in reducing our variable rate debt exposure by paying off property-level mortgage debt and entering into various interest rate swap agreements to hedge the interest rate exposure risk related to several variable rate loans. Refer to Note 7 in the condensed consolidated financial statements included herein, for our debt principal amounts and weighted average interest rates by year and expected maturity to evaluate the expected cash flows and sensitivity to interest rate changes. Refer to Note 8 in the condensed consolidated financial statements included herein for more information on our interest rate swap derivatives.

We may continue to use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to changes in interest rates on loans secured by our properties. To the extent we do, we are exposed to credit risk and market risk. Credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. We maintain credit policies with regard to our counterparties that we believe reduce overall credit risk. These policies include evaluating and monitoring our counterparties' financial condition, including their credit ratings, and entering into agreements with counterparties based on established credit limit policies. Market risk is the adverse effect on the value of a financial instrument that results from a change in interest rates. The market risk associated with interest-rate contracts is managed by establishing and monitoring parameters that limit the types and degree of market risk that may be undertaken.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As required by Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) under the Exchange Act, our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer evaluated, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, were effective at a reasonable assurance level for the purpose of ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in this quarterly report is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of the Exchange Act and is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There has been no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the Company's most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Part II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are involved in various claims and lawsuits arising in the normal course of business, including proceedings involving tort and other general liability claims, workers’ compensation and other employee claims and claims related to our ownership of certain hotel properties.

We recognize a liability when we believe the loss is probable and reasonably estimable. We currently believe that the ultimate outcome of such lawsuits and proceedings will not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

Organization

Xenia Hotels & Resorts, Inc. (the "Company" or "Xenia") is a Maryland corporation that invests primarily in premium full service and lifestyle hotels, with a focus on the top 25 lodging markets as well as key leisure destinations in the United States ("U.S.").

Substantially all of the Company's assets are held by, and all the operations are conducted through XHR LP (the "Operating Partnership"). XHR GP, Inc. is the sole general partner of XHR LP and is wholly owned by the Company. As of June 30, 2018, the Company collectively owned 97.4% of the common limited partnership units issued by the Operating Partnership ("Common Units"). The remaining 2.6% of the Common Units are owned by the other limited partners. To qualify as a real estate investment trust ("REIT"), the Company cannot operate or manage its hotels. Therefore, the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries lease the hotel properties to XHR Holding, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively with its subsidiaries, "XHR Holding"), the Company's taxable REIT subsidiary ("TRS"), which engages third-party eligible independent contractors to manage the hotels.

As of June 30, 2018, the Company owned 38 lodging properties, 36 of which were wholly owned. The remaining two hotels are owned through individual investments in real estate entities, in which the Company has a 75% ownership interest in each investment.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared on an accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP" or "GAAP") and in conformity with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") applicable to financial information. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. The unaudited financial statements include normal recurring adjustments, which management considers necessary for the fair presentation of the condensed consolidated balance sheets, condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, condensed consolidated statements of changes in equity and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the periods presented. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 27, 2018. Operating results for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of actual operating results for the entire year.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Operating Partnership, XHR Holding, and its consolidated investments in real estate entities. The Company's subsidiaries and consolidated investments in real estate entities generally consist of limited liability companies, limited partnerships and the TRS. The effects of all inter-company transactions have been eliminated.

Certain prior year amounts in these financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and revenues and expenses. These estimates are prepared using management's best judgment, after considering past, current and expected economic conditions. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Risks and Uncertainties

For the six months endedJune 30, 2018, the Company had a geographical concentration of revenues generated from hotels in the Orlando, Florida and Phoenix, Arizona markets that each exceeded 10% of total revenues for the period. For the six months endedJune 30, 2017, the Company had a geographical concentration of revenues generated from hotels in Houston, Texas that represented 11% of total revenues.

To the extent that there are adverse changes in these markets, or the industry sectors that operate in these markets, our business and operating results could be negatively impacted. The state of the overall economy can significantly impact hotel operational performance and thus, impact the Company's financial position. Should any of our hotels experience a significant decline in operational performance, it may affect the Company's ability to make distributions to our stockholders, service debt, or meet other financial obligations.

Consolidation

The Company evaluates its investments in partially owned entities to determine whether any such entities may be a variable interest entity ("VIE"). If the entity is a VIE, the determination of whether the Company is the primary beneficiary must be made. The primary beneficiary determination is based on a qualitative assessment as to whether the entity has (i) power to direct significant activities of the VIE and (ii) an obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could be potentially significant to the VIE. The Company will consolidate a VIE if it is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. The equity method of accounting is applied to entities in which the Company is not the primary beneficiary, or the entity is not a VIE and over which the Company does not have effective control, but can exercise influence over the entity with respect to its operations and major decisions.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all demand deposits, money market accounts and investments in certificates of deposit and repurchase agreements purchased with a maturity of three months or less, at the date of purchase, to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents at financial institutions. The combined account balances at one or more institutions generally exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insurance coverage and, as a result, there is a concentration of credit risk related to amounts on deposit in excess of FDIC insurance coverage. The Company believes that the risk is not significant as the Company does not anticipate the financial institutions’ non-performance.

Restricted Cash and Escrows

Restricted cash primarily relates to lodging furniture, fixtures and equipment reserves as required per the terms of our management and franchise agreements, cash held in restricted escrows for real estate taxes and insurance escrows, capital spending reserves, and at times disposition related hold back escrows.

Disposition of Real Estate

In February 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") 2017-05, Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets. The guidance aims at better clarifying the scope of asset derecognition and adds further guidance for recognizing gains and losses from the transfer of nonfinancial assets in contracts with non-customers. The Company adopted ASU 2017-05 on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach. Upon adoption of ASU 2017-05, there was no change in income from continuing operations, net income nor any financial statement line item during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018 and 2017. Therefore, there was no cumulative effect adjustment recorded to distributions in excess of retained earnings on the adoption date.

The Company accounts for dispositions of real estate in accordance with Subtopic 610-20 for the transactions between the Company and unrelated third parties that are not considered a customer in the ordinary course of business. Typically, the real estate assets disposed of do not represent the transfer of a business or contain a material amount of financial assets, if any. The real estate assets promised in a sales contract are typically nonfinancial assets (i.e. land or a leasehold interest in land, building, furniture, fixtures and equipment) or in substance nonfinancial assets. The Company recognizes a gain in full when the real estate is sold, provided (a) there is a valid contract and (b) transfer of control has occurred.

Involuntary Conversion and Business Interruption Insurance

During the second half of 2017, several of the Company's lodging properties were impacted by natural disasters, including two major hurricanes and a series of wildfires in California.

Any insurance recoveries for property damage expected to be received in excess of the recorded loss will be treated as a gain and will not be recorded until contingencies are resolved.

In addition to property damage insurance recoveries, the Company may be entitled to business interruption insurance recoveries for certain properties related to natural disasters, however, it will not record an insurance recovery receivable for these losses until a final settlement has been reached with the insurance company. Any insurance proceeds received in excess of insurance deductibles will be accounted for as a gain. During the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018, the Company recognized $2.6 million of business interruption insurance proceeds related to business lost at Hyatt Centric Key West Resort & Spa as a result of Hurricane Irma, which is included in gain on business interruption insurance on the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income for the periods then ended. Of the $2.6 million recognized, $1.4 millionof the proceeds related to lost income in the third and fourth quarters of 2017, with the remaining$1.2 millionattributable to lost income from the first quarter of 2018.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company has adopted a share-based incentive plan that provides for the grant of stock options, stock awards, restricted stock units, Operating Partnership Units and other equity-based awards. Share-based compensation is measured at the estimated fair value of the award on the date of grant, adjusted for forfeitures, and recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the longest vesting period for each grant for the entire award. The determination of fair value of these awards is subjective and involves significant estimates and assumptions including expected volatility of the Company's shares, expected dividend yield, expected term and assumptions of whether certain of these awards will achieve performance thresholds. Share-based compensation is included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income and capitalized in building and other improvements in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for certain employees that manage property developments, renovations and capital improvements.

Derivatives and Hedging Activities

In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to the effects of interest rate changes. The Company limits the risks associated with interest rate changes by following established risk management policies and procedures which may include the use of derivative instruments. The Company formally documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking various hedge transactions. The Company assesses at the inception of the hedge whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in the cash flows of the hedged items. Instruments that meet these hedging criteria are formally designated as hedges at the inception of the derivative contract and are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value, with offsetting changes recorded to other comprehensive income (loss). The Company nets assets and liabilities when the right of offset exists. The Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 (Topic 842), Leases, which replaces Topic 840, Leases, and requires most leases, in which we are the lessee, to be recorded on the Company's balance sheet as either operating or financing leases with a right of use asset and a corresponding lease liability measured at present value. Operating leases will be recognized on the income statement on a straight-line basis as lease expense and financing leases will be accounted for similarly to the accounting for amortizing debt. Leases with terms of less than 12 months will continue to be accounted for as they are under the current standard. The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2019. The Company is currently working with its third-party hotel managers to determine the completeness of its lease population and to obtain an understanding of implementation efforts at the hotel level. This process includes reviewing lease agreements, evaluating materiality of hotel level leases and determining what, if any, changes there are to hotel-level internal controls. The Company is finalizing its calculations of existing ground and corporate lease obligations, which includes the determination of discount rates to determine the lease liability and the corresponding right-of-use asset upon adoption. The Company is also evaluating the overall impact the standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and continues to monitor the final standard updates issued by the FASB. The Company anticipates adopting the standard on January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective method.

In January 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842. This guidance permits an entity to elect an optional transition practical expedient to not evaluate under land easements that exist or have expired before the entity’s adoption of Topic 842 and that were not previously accounted for as leases under Topic 840. An entity that elects this practical expedient would apply the practical expedient consistently to all of its existing or expired land easements that were not previously accounted for as leases under Topic 840. The Company plans to adopt the practical expedient in ASU 2018-01 upon adoption of ASU 2016-02.

In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases. This guidance was issued to address stakeholders' questions on how to apply certain aspects of the new guidance in Topic 842. The clarifications are to be applied upon transition of Topic 842, which is effective for the Company on January 1, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating these clarifications to determine the impact they have on its Topic 842 implementation efforts and its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Also in July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Targeted Improvements to Topic 842, Leases. This guidance provides another option for transition, which allows entities not to apply the new lease standard in the comparative periods they present in their financial statements in the year of adoption. In addition, this guidance provides lessors with a practical expedient to not separate non-lease components from the associated lease components when certain criteria is met. These improvements are to be applied upon transition of Topic 842, which is effective for the Company on January 1, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating these improvements to determine the impact they have on its Topic 842 implementation efforts and its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The guidance is intended to assist entities with evaluating whether a set of transferred assets and activities is a business. Under the new guidance, an entity first determines whether substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets. If this threshold is met, the set is not a business. If the threshold is not met, the entity then evaluates whether the set meets the requirement that a business include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create outputs. The Company adopted ASU 2017-01 on January 1, 2018 on a prospective basis. The Company anticipates that most future acquisitions will be accounted for as asset acquisitions rather than business combinations. As such, asset acquisitions will require the Company to capitalize future acquisition costs as part of the purchase price allocation, rather than expensing these costs as we have historically done when transactions were accounted for as business combinations.

Also in January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Accounting for Goodwill Impairment. The guidance is intended to simplify the accounting for goodwill impairment and removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test under the current guidance, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation. A goodwill impairment under ASU 2017-04 will be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. All other goodwill impairment guidance will remain largely unchanged. Entities will continue to have the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine if a quantitative impairment test is necessary. The same one-step impairment test will be applied to goodwill at all reporting units, even those with zero or negative carrying amounts. Entities will be required to disclose the amount of goodwill at reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2020; however, early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2017-04 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. The guidance is intended to clarify when certain changes to terms or conditions of share-based payment awards must be accounted for as modifications but does not change the accounting for modifications. The new standard is to be applied prospectively to awards modified on or after the adoption date. The Company adopted ASU 2017-09 on January 1, 2018. The adoption of ASU 2017-09 did not have any impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities (Topic 815). The purpose of this updated guidance is to better align a company’s financial reporting for hedging activities with the economic objectives of those activities. The transition guidance provides companies with the option of early adopting the new standard in any interim period after issuance of the update, or alternatively requires adoption for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company early adopted the standard in April 2018 using the modified retrospective transition approach. Prior to April 2018, the Company had not recorded ineffectiveness related to its active hedging relationships and therefore no transition adjustment was required upon adoption. In subsequent periods, any ineffectiveness related to the Company's derivative instruments will be reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income. While the Company mademinor presentation changes in its disclosure on derivative and hedging activities, the adoption of ASU 2017-12 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Adoption of new accounting guidance

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The Company adopted ASU 2014-09, and all of the following ASU clarifications on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach:

• ASU 2016-08 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net)

• ASU 2016-10 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing

• ASU 2016-12 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients

• ASU 2016-20 Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Upon adoption of ASU 2014-09 and related ASU clarifications, there was no change on income from continuing operations, net income, or any financial statement line item and there was no cumulative effect adjustment recorded to accumulated distributions in excess of net earnings on the adoption date. The Company concluded upon adoption of ASU 2014-09, the disposition of real estate assets, including hotels, qualify as a sale of a nonfinancial asset and should be recognized under the guidance in ASU 2017-05.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Revenue consists of amounts derived from hotel operations, including the sale of rooms for lodging accommodations, food and beverage, and other ancillary revenue generated by hotel amenities including parking, spa, resort fees and other services.

Revenues are generated from various distribution channels including but not limited to direct bookings, global distribution systems and the Internet travel sites. Room transaction prices are based on an individual hotel's location, room type and the bundle of services included in the reservation and are set by the hotel daily. Any discounts, including advanced purchase, loyalty point redemptions or promotions are recognized at the discounted rate whereas rebates and incentives are recorded as a reduction in room revenue when earned. Revenues from online channels are generally recognized net of commission fees, unless the end price paid by the guest is known. Rooms revenue is recognized over the length of stay that the hotel room is occupied by the guest. Cash received from a guest prior to check-in is recorded as an advanced deposit and is generally recognized as room revenue at the time the room reservation has become non-cancellable, upon occupancy or upon expiration of the re-booking date. Advance deposits are included in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. Payment of any remaining balance is typically due from the guest upon check-out. Sales, use, occupancy, and similar taxes are collected and presented on a net basis (excluded from revenues).

Food and beverage transaction prices are based on the stated price for the specific food or beverage and varies depending on type, venue and hotel location. Service charges are typically a percentage of food and beverage charges and meeting space rental. Food and beverage revenue is recognized at the point in time in which the goods and/or services are rendered to the guest. Cash received in advance of an event is recorded as either a security or advance deposit. Security and advance deposits are recognized as revenue when it becomes non-cancellable or at the time the food and beverage goods and services are rendered to the guest. Payment for the remaining balance of food and beverage goods and services is due upon delivery and completion of such goods and services.

Parking and audio visual fees are recognized at the time services are provided to the guest. In parking and audio visual contracts in which we have control over the services provided, we are considered the principal in the agreement and recognize the related revenues gross of associated costs. If we do not have control over the services in the contract, we are considered the agent and record the related revenues net of associated costs.

Resort fees, spa and other ancillary amenity revenues are recognized at the point in time the goods or services have been rendered to the guest at the stated price for the service or amenity.

Rental income is generated from space lease agreements from retail tenants in our hotels. Rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the underlying lease. Percentage rent is recognized at the point in time in which the underlying thresholds are achieved and percentage rent is earned.

Our revenue sources are affected by conditions impacting the travel and hospitality industry as well as competition from other hotels and businesses in similar markets.

Investment in Real Estate Entities

Investment in Real Estate Entities

The Company has a 75% interest in two investments in real estate entities that own and operate the Grand Bohemian Hotel Charleston and the Grand Bohemian Hotel Mountain Brook. These entities are considered VIE's because the entities did not have enough equity to finance their activities without additional subordinated financial support. The Company determined that it has the power to direct the activities of the VIE's that most significantly impact the VIE's economic performance, as well as the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE's that could potentially be significant to the VIE, or the right to receive benefits from the VIE's that could potentially be significant to the VIE. As such, the Company has a controlling financial interest and is considered the primary beneficiary of each of these entities. Therefore, these entities are consolidated by the Company.

The following are the liabilities of the consolidated VIE's, which are non-recourse to the Company, and the assets that can be used to settle those obligations (in thousands):

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Derivatives

Derivatives

The Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy for variable-rate debt. As of June 30, 2018, all interest rate swaps were designated as cash flow hedges and involve the receipt of variable-rate payments from a counterparty in exchange for making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. Unrealized gains and losses of hedging instruments are reported in other comprehensive income. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to currently outstanding derivatives are recognized as an adjustment to income (loss) through interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable rate debt.

As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, all derivative instruments held by the Company with the right of offset were in a net asset position and were included in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The following table summarizes the terms of the derivative financial instruments held by the Company as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively (in thousands):

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

The Company defines fair value based on the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or the exit price that would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company uses a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which are described below:

• Level 1 - Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access.

• Level 2 - Observable inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

• Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

The Company has estimated the fair value of its financial and non-financial instruments using widely accepted valuation techniques and available market information. Considerable judgment and a high degree of subjectivity are involved in developing these estimates and, accordingly, they are not necessarily indicative of amounts that would be realized upon disposition.

Recurring Measurements

For assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, quantitative disclosure of their fair value is as follows, which are netted as applicable per the terms of the respective master netting agreements (in thousands):

	Fair Value Measurement Date
	June 30, 2018		December 31, 2017
Location / Description	Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 2)
Other assets
Interest rate swap assets	$	22,637	$	10,838
Total	$	22,637	$	10,838

The fair value of each derivative instrument is based on a discounted cash flow analysis of the expected cash flows under each arrangement. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivative instrument, including the period to maturity, and utilizes observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities, which are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company also incorporates credit value adjustments to appropriately reflect each parties’ nonperformance risk in the fair value measurement, which utilizes Level 3 inputs such as estimates of current credit spreads. However, the Company has assessed that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of the derivatives. As a result, the Company has determined that its derivative valuations in their entirety are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Non-Recurring Measurements

Financial Instruments Not Measured at Fair Value

The table below represents the fair value of financial instruments presented at carrying values in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 (in thousands):

	Carrying Value		Estimated Fair Value		Carrying Value		Estimated Fair Value

Total	$	1,124,669	$	1,131,952	$	1,329,835	$	1,343,651

The Company estimated the fair value of its total debt, net of discounts, using a weighted average effective interest rate of 4.4% and 3.93% per annum as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The Company has determined that its debt instrument valuations are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Earnings Per Share

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Share

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing income or loss available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated by dividing income or loss available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, plus any shares that could potentially be outstanding during the period. Any anti-dilutive shares have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation.

Unvested share-based awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and are included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. Accordingly, distributed and undistributed earnings attributable to unvested share-based compensation (participating securities) have been excluded, as applicable, from net income or loss available to common stockholders used in the basic and diluted earnings per share calculations.

Income allocated to non-controlling interest in the Operating Partnership has been excluded from the numerator and Common Units and vested LTIP Units in the Operating Partnership, which may be converted to common shares, have been omitted from the denominator for the purpose of computing diluted earnings per share since including these amounts in the numerator and denominator would have no impact.

The following table reconciles net income attributable to common stockholders to basic and diluted earnings per share (in thousands, except share and per share data):

Share Based Compensation

Share Based Compensation

Restricted Stock Units

In February 2018, the Compensation Committee (the "Compensation Committee") of the Board of Directors of the Company approved the grant of Restricted Stock Units under the Company's 2015 Incentive Award Plan to certain Company employees (the "2018 Restricted Stock Units"). The 2018 Restricted Stock Units include 79,812 Restricted Stock Units that vest over a three-year period based on the holder's continued service with the Company or any of its affiliates and 45,464 performance-based Restricted Stock Units that cliff vest based on the achievement of applicable performance goals over a three-year period. The 2018 Restricted Stock Units have weighted average grant date fair value of $15.92 per share.

Each time-based 2018 Restricted Stock Unit will vest as follows, subject to the employee’s continued service through each applicable vesting date: 33% on February 4, 2019, which is the first anniversary of the vesting commencement date of the award (February 4, 2018), 33% on the second anniversary of the vesting commencement date, and 34% on the third anniversary of the vesting commencement date.

Of the performance-based 2018 Restricted Stock Units, twenty-five percent (25%) are designated as absolute total stockholder return ("TSR") units (the "Absolute TSR Share Units"), and vest based on achievement of varying levels of the Company’s TSR over the three-year performance period. The other seventy-five percent (75%) of the performance-based 2018 Restricted Stock Units are designated as relative TSR share units (the "Relative TSR Share Units") and vest based on the ranking of the Company’s TSR as compared to a defined peer group over the three-year performance period.

LTIP Unit Grants

In February 2018, the Compensation Committee approved the issuance of 725,860 performance-based LTIP Units (the "2018 Class A LTIP Units") and 84,505 time-based LTIP Units (the "2018 Time-Based LTIP Units") of the Operating Partnership under the 2015 Incentive Award Plan that had a weighted average grant date fair value of $8.79 per unit.

Each award of 2018 Time-Based LTIP Units will vest as follows, subject to the executive’s continued service through each applicable vesting date: 33% on February 4, 2019, which is the first anniversary of the vesting commencement date of the award (February 4, 2018), 33% on the second anniversary of the vesting commencement date, and 34% on the third anniversary of the vesting commencement date.

A portion of each award of 2018 Class A LTIP Units is designated as a number of “base units.” Twenty-five percent (25%) of the base units are designated as absolute TSR base units, and vest based on achievement of varying levels of the Company’s TSR over the three-year performance period. The other seventy-five percent (75%) of the base units are designated as relative TSR base units and vest based on the ranking of the Company’s TSR as compared to a defined peer group over the three-year performance period.

In May 2018, pursuant to the Company's Director Compensation Program, as amended and restated as of February 21, 2018, the Company approved the issuance of 24,661 fully-vested LTIP Units to the Company's seven non-employee directors with a weighted average grant date fair value of $24.13 per unit.

LTIP Units (other than Class A LTIP Units that have not vested), whether vested or not, receive the same quarterly per-unit distributions as Common Units, which equal the per-share distributions on the Common Stock of the Company. Class A LTIP Units that have not vested receive a quarterly per-unit distribution equal to 10% of the distribution paid on Common Units.

The following is a summary of the unvested incentive awards under the Company's 2014 Share Unit Plan and the 2015 Incentive Award Plan as of June 30, 2018:

(2) During the six months endedJune 30, 2018, 49,826 shares of common stock were withheld by the Company upon the settlement of the applicable award in order to satisfy minimum federal and state tax withholding requirements with respect to Share Units and Restricted Stock Units under the 2014 Share Unit Plan and the 2015 Incentive Award Plan.

The fair value of the time-based Restricted Stock Units and Time-Based LTIP Units are determined based on the closing price of the Company’s Common Stock on the grant date and compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The grant date fair values of performance-based awards for the 2018 Restricted Stock Units and the 2018 Class A LTIP Units were determined based on a Monte Carlo simulation method with the following assumptions, and compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the performance period:

Performance Award Grant Date	Percentage of Total Award	Grant Date Fair Value by Component (in dollars)	Volatility	Interest Rate	Dividend Yield
February 20, 2018
Absolute TSR Restricted Stock Units	25%	$6.54	24.52%	1.82% - 2.47%	5.553%
Relative TSR Restricted Stock Units	75%	$10.44	24.52%	1.82% - 2.47%	5.553%
Absolute TSR Class A LTIPs	25%	$6.60	24.52%	1.82% - 2.47%	5.553%
Relative TSR Class A LTIPs	75%	$10.13	24.52%	1.82% - 2.47%	5.553%

The absolute and relative stockholder returns are market conditions as defined by Accounting Standard Codification ("ASC") 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation. Market conditions include provisions wherein the vesting condition is met through the achievement of a specific value of the Company’s Common Stock, which is total stockholder return in this case. Market conditions differ from other performance awards under ASC 718 in that the probability of attaining the condition (and thus vesting of the units or shares) is reflected in the initial grant date fair value of the award. Accordingly, it is not appropriate to reconsider the probability of vesting in the award subsequent to the initial measurement of the award, nor is it appropriate to reverse any of the expense if the condition is not met.

Therefore, once the expense for these awards is measured, the expense must be recognized over the service period regardless of whether the target is met, or at what level the target is met. Expense may only be reversed if the holder of the instrument forfeits the award as a result of the holder's termination of service of the Company prior to vesting.

For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018 the Company recognized approximately $2.2 million and $4.2 million, respectively, of share-based compensation expense (net of forfeitures) related to Share units, Restricted Stock Units, and LTIP Units provided to certain of its executive officers and other members of management. In addition, during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018 we recognized $595 thousand of share-based compensation expense, related to LTIP units that were provided to the Company's Board of Directors and we capitalized approximately $138 thousand and $268 thousand, respectively, related to Restricted Stock Units provided to certain members of management that oversee development and capital projects on behalf of the Company. As of June 30, 2018, there was $14.3 million of total unrecognized compensation costs related to unvested Restricted Stock Units, Class A LTIP Units and Time-Based LTIP Units issued under the 2015 Incentive Award Plan, which are expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average period of 2 additional years.

For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017, the Company recognized approximately $2.4 million and $4.6 million, respectively, of share-based compensation expense (net of forfeitures) related to Share Units, Restricted Stock Units, and LTIP Units provided to certain of its executive officers and other members of management. In addition, we recognized $595 thousand of share-based compensation expense, related to LTIP units, that were provided to the Company's Board of Directors and we capitalized approximately $152 thousand and $306 thousand, respectively, related to Restricted Stock Units provided to certain members of management that oversee development and capital projects on behalf of the Company.

Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments and Contingencies

Certain leases and management agreements require the Company to reserve funds relating to replacements and renewals of the hotels' furniture, fixtures and equipment. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had a balance of $48.8 million and $46.6 million, respectively, in reserves for such future improvements. This amount is included in restricted cash and escrows on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

The Company is subject, from time to time, to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. While the resolution of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes, based on currently available information, that the final outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2018

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Accounting

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared on an accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP" or "GAAP") and in conformity with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") applicable to financial information. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. The unaudited financial statements include normal recurring adjustments, which management considers necessary for the fair presentation of the condensed consolidated balance sheets, condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, condensed consolidated statements of changes in equity and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the periods presented. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 27, 2018. Operating results for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of actual operating results for the entire year.

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Operating Partnership, XHR Holding, and its consolidated investments in real estate entities. The Company's subsidiaries and consolidated investments in real estate entities generally consist of limited liability companies, limited partnerships and the TRS. The effects of all inter-company transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and revenues and expenses. These estimates are prepared using management's best judgment, after considering past, current and expected economic conditions. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Risks and Uncertainties

Risks and Uncertainties

For the six months endedJune 30, 2018, the Company had a geographical concentration of revenues generated from hotels in the Orlando, Florida and Phoenix, Arizona markets that each exceeded 10% of total revenues for the period. For the six months endedJune 30, 2017, the Company had a geographical concentration of revenues generated from hotels in Houston, Texas that represented 11% of total revenues.

To the extent that there are adverse changes in these markets, or the industry sectors that operate in these markets, our business and operating results could be negatively impacted. The state of the overall economy can significantly impact hotel operational performance and thus, impact the Company's financial position. Should any of our hotels experience a significant decline in operational performance, it may affect the Company's ability to make distributions to our stockholders, service debt, or meet other financial obligations.

Consolidation

Consolidation

The Company evaluates its investments in partially owned entities to determine whether any such entities may be a variable interest entity ("VIE"). If the entity is a VIE, the determination of whether the Company is the primary beneficiary must be made. The primary beneficiary determination is based on a qualitative assessment as to whether the entity has (i) power to direct significant activities of the VIE and (ii) an obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could be potentially significant to the VIE. The Company will consolidate a VIE if it is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. The equity method of accounting is applied to entities in which the Company is not the primary beneficiary, or the entity is not a VIE and over which the Company does not have effective control, but can exercise influence over the entity with respect to its operations and major decisions.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all demand deposits, money market accounts and investments in certificates of deposit and repurchase agreements purchased with a maturity of three months or less, at the date of purchase, to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents at financial institutions. The combined account balances at one or more institutions generally exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insurance coverage and, as a result, there is a concentration of credit risk related to amounts on deposit in excess of FDIC insurance coverage. The Company believes that the risk is not significant as the Company does not anticipate the financial institutions’ non-performance.

Restricted Cash and Escrows

Restricted Cash and Escrows

Restricted cash primarily relates to lodging furniture, fixtures and equipment reserves as required per the terms of our management and franchise agreements, cash held in restricted escrows for real estate taxes and insurance escrows, capital spending reserves, and at times disposition related hold back escrows.

Disposition of Real Estate

Disposition of Real Estate

In February 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") 2017-05, Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets. The guidance aims at better clarifying the scope of asset derecognition and adds further guidance for recognizing gains and losses from the transfer of nonfinancial assets in contracts with non-customers. The Company adopted ASU 2017-05 on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach. Upon adoption of ASU 2017-05, there was no change in income from continuing operations, net income nor any financial statement line item during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2018 and 2017. Therefore, there was no cumulative effect adjustment recorded to distributions in excess of retained earnings on the adoption date.

The Company accounts for dispositions of real estate in accordance with Subtopic 610-20 for the transactions between the Company and unrelated third parties that are not considered a customer in the ordinary course of business. Typically, the real estate assets disposed of do not represent the transfer of a business or contain a material amount of financial assets, if any. The real estate assets promised in a sales contract are typically nonfinancial assets (i.e. land or a leasehold interest in land, building, furniture, fixtures and equipment) or in substance nonfinancial assets. The Company recognizes a gain in full when the real estate is sold, provided (a) there is a valid contract and (b) transfer of control has occurred.

Involuntary Conversion and Business Interruption Insurance

Involuntary Conversion and Business Interruption Insurance

During the second half of 2017, several of the Company's lodging properties were impacted by natural disasters, including two major hurricanes and a series of wildfires in California.

Any insurance recoveries for property damage expected to be received in excess of the recorded loss will be treated as a gain and will not be recorded until contingencies are resolved.

In addition to property damage insurance recoveries, the Company may be entitled to business interruption insurance recoveries for certain properties related to natural disasters, however, it will not record an insurance recovery receivable for these losses until a final settlement has been reached with the insurance company. Any insurance proceeds received in excess of insurance deductibles will be accounted for as a gain.

Share-Based Compensation

Share-Based Compensation

The Company has adopted a share-based incentive plan that provides for the grant of stock options, stock awards, restricted stock units, Operating Partnership Units and other equity-based awards. Share-based compensation is measured at the estimated fair value of the award on the date of grant, adjusted for forfeitures, and recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the longest vesting period for each grant for the entire award. The determination of fair value of these awards is subjective and involves significant estimates and assumptions including expected volatility of the Company's shares, expected dividend yield, expected term and assumptions of whether certain of these awards will achieve performance thresholds. Share-based compensation is included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income and capitalized in building and other improvements in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for certain employees that manage property developments, renovations and capital improvements.

Derivatives and Hedging Activities

Derivatives and Hedging Activities

In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to the effects of interest rate changes. The Company limits the risks associated with interest rate changes by following established risk management policies and procedures which may include the use of derivative instruments. The Company formally documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking various hedge transactions. The Company assesses at the inception of the hedge whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in the cash flows of the hedged items. Instruments that meet these hedging criteria are formally designated as hedges at the inception of the derivative contract and are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value, with offsetting changes recorded to other comprehensive income (loss). The Company nets assets and liabilities when the right of offset exists. The Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 (Topic 842), Leases, which replaces Topic 840, Leases, and requires most leases, in which we are the lessee, to be recorded on the Company's balance sheet as either operating or financing leases with a right of use asset and a corresponding lease liability measured at present value. Operating leases will be recognized on the income statement on a straight-line basis as lease expense and financing leases will be accounted for similarly to the accounting for amortizing debt. Leases with terms of less than 12 months will continue to be accounted for as they are under the current standard. The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2019. The Company is currently working with its third-party hotel managers to determine the completeness of its lease population and to obtain an understanding of implementation efforts at the hotel level. This process includes reviewing lease agreements, evaluating materiality of hotel level leases and determining what, if any, changes there are to hotel-level internal controls. The Company is finalizing its calculations of existing ground and corporate lease obligations, which includes the determination of discount rates to determine the lease liability and the corresponding right-of-use asset upon adoption. The Company is also evaluating the overall impact the standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and continues to monitor the final standard updates issued by the FASB. The Company anticipates adopting the standard on January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective method.

In January 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842. This guidance permits an entity to elect an optional transition practical expedient to not evaluate under land easements that exist or have expired before the entity’s adoption of Topic 842 and that were not previously accounted for as leases under Topic 840. An entity that elects this practical expedient would apply the practical expedient consistently to all of its existing or expired land easements that were not previously accounted for as leases under Topic 840. The Company plans to adopt the practical expedient in ASU 2018-01 upon adoption of ASU 2016-02.

In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases. This guidance was issued to address stakeholders' questions on how to apply certain aspects of the new guidance in Topic 842. The clarifications are to be applied upon transition of Topic 842, which is effective for the Company on January 1, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating these clarifications to determine the impact they have on its Topic 842 implementation efforts and its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Also in July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Targeted Improvements to Topic 842, Leases. This guidance provides another option for transition, which allows entities not to apply the new lease standard in the comparative periods they present in their financial statements in the year of adoption. In addition, this guidance provides lessors with a practical expedient to not separate non-lease components from the associated lease components when certain criteria is met. These improvements are to be applied upon transition of Topic 842, which is effective for the Company on January 1, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating these improvements to determine the impact they have on its Topic 842 implementation efforts and its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The guidance is intended to assist entities with evaluating whether a set of transferred assets and activities is a business. Under the new guidance, an entity first determines whether substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets. If this threshold is met, the set is not a business. If the threshold is not met, the entity then evaluates whether the set meets the requirement that a business include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create outputs. The Company adopted ASU 2017-01 on January 1, 2018 on a prospective basis. The Company anticipates that most future acquisitions will be accounted for as asset acquisitions rather than business combinations. As such, asset acquisitions will require the Company to capitalize future acquisition costs as part of the purchase price allocation, rather than expensing these costs as we have historically done when transactions were accounted for as business combinations.

Also in January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Accounting for Goodwill Impairment. The guidance is intended to simplify the accounting for goodwill impairment and removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test under the current guidance, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation. A goodwill impairment under ASU 2017-04 will be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. All other goodwill impairment guidance will remain largely unchanged. Entities will continue to have the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine if a quantitative impairment test is necessary. The same one-step impairment test will be applied to goodwill at all reporting units, even those with zero or negative carrying amounts. Entities will be required to disclose the amount of goodwill at reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2020; however, early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2017-04 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. The guidance is intended to clarify when certain changes to terms or conditions of share-based payment awards must be accounted for as modifications but does not change the accounting for modifications. The new standard is to be applied prospectively to awards modified on or after the adoption date. The Company adopted ASU 2017-09 on January 1, 2018. The adoption of ASU 2017-09 did not have any impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities (Topic 815). The purpose of this updated guidance is to better align a company’s financial reporting for hedging activities with the economic objectives of those activities. The transition guidance provides companies with the option of early adopting the new standard in any interim period after issuance of the update, or alternatively requires adoption for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company early adopted the standard in April 2018 using the modified retrospective transition approach. Prior to April 2018, the Company had not recorded ineffectiveness related to its active hedging relationships and therefore no transition adjustment was required upon adoption. In subsequent periods, any ineffectiveness related to the Company's derivative instruments will be reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income. While the Company mademinor presentation changes in its disclosure on derivative and hedging activities, the adoption of ASU 2017-12 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Revenue consists of amounts derived from hotel operations, including the sale of rooms for lodging accommodations, food and beverage, and other ancillary revenue generated by hotel amenities including parking, spa, resort fees and other services.

Revenues are generated from various distribution channels including but not limited to direct bookings, global distribution systems and the Internet travel sites. Room transaction prices are based on an individual hotel's location, room type and the bundle of services included in the reservation and are set by the hotel daily. Any discounts, including advanced purchase, loyalty point redemptions or promotions are recognized at the discounted rate whereas rebates and incentives are recorded as a reduction in room revenue when earned. Revenues from online channels are generally recognized net of commission fees, unless the end price paid by the guest is known. Rooms revenue is recognized over the length of stay that the hotel room is occupied by the guest. Cash received from a guest prior to check-in is recorded as an advanced deposit and is generally recognized as room revenue at the time the room reservation has become non-cancellable, upon occupancy or upon expiration of the re-booking date. Advance deposits are included in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. Payment of any remaining balance is typically due from the guest upon check-out. Sales, use, occupancy, and similar taxes are collected and presented on a net basis (excluded from revenues).

Food and beverage transaction prices are based on the stated price for the specific food or beverage and varies depending on type, venue and hotel location. Service charges are typically a percentage of food and beverage charges and meeting space rental. Food and beverage revenue is recognized at the point in time in which the goods and/or services are rendered to the guest. Cash received in advance of an event is recorded as either a security or advance deposit. Security and advance deposits are recognized as revenue when it becomes non-cancellable or at the time the food and beverage goods and services are rendered to the guest. Payment for the remaining balance of food and beverage goods and services is due upon delivery and completion of such goods and services.

Parking and audio visual fees are recognized at the time services are provided to the guest. In parking and audio visual contracts in which we have control over the services provided, we are considered the principal in the agreement and recognize the related revenues gross of associated costs. If we do not have control over the services in the contract, we are considered the agent and record the related revenues net of associated costs.

Resort fees, spa and other ancillary amenity revenues are recognized at the point in time the goods or services have been rendered to the guest at the stated price for the service or amenity.

Rental income is generated from space lease agreements from retail tenants in our hotels. Rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the underlying lease. Percentage rent is recognized at the point in time in which the underlying thresholds are achieved and percentage rent is earned.

Our revenue sources are affected by conditions impacting the travel and hospitality industry as well as competition from other hotels and businesses in similar markets.
