“The fundamental actions we have taken in areas within our control are continuing to bear fruit as evidenced by the ongoing strength in Jamaica, robust Group performance in the Pacific Coast and stabilizing trends in the Yucatán. Strategic imperatives are also gathering momentum as demonstrated by our accelerating capital return to shareholders and increasing direct customer sourcing.
Unfortunately, the lack of a clear resolution as to the cause of the Dominican Republic incidents has continued to weigh on consumer perception for the market as a whole, resulting in the recovery for the broader slowing in late September.
That being said, the relative out-performance of our branded properties, enhanced selling ability post project completion, an increased focus on tangible operational efficiencies and recent positive commentary ruling out a key concern as it pertains to the Dominican Republic incidents, give us a sense of optimism as we move into a pivotal year for Playa.”
Bruce D. Wardinski, Chairman and CEO of Playa Hotels & Resorts

Total Net Revenue represents revenue from the sale of all-inclusive packages, which include room accommodations, food and beverage services and entertainment activities, net of compulsory tips paid to employees, as well as revenue from other goods, services and amenities not included in the all-inclusive package. Government mandated compulsory tips in the Dominican Republic are not included in this adjustment as they are already excluded from revenue in accordance with U.S. GAAP. A description of how we compute Total Net Revenue and a reconciliation of Total Net Revenue to total revenue can be found in the section “Definitions of Non-U.S. GAAP Measures and Operating Statistics” below. Total Net Revenue also includes all Management Fee Revenue.

Balance Sheet
As of September 30, 2019, the Company held $28.2 million in cash and cash equivalents. Total interest-bearing debt was $989.0 million, comprised entirely of our term loan secured debt due 2024. Effective March 29, 2018, we entered into two interest rate swaps to fix LIBOR at 2.85% on $800.0 million of our variable rate Term Loan. As of September 30, 2019, there were no amounts outstanding on the Company’s $100.0 million Revolving Credit Facility.
We have spent $246.6 million on the development of our new 750-room Hyatt Ziva and Hyatt Zilara Cap Cana, inclusive of land costs. Adjusting for this construction-in-progress spending, our net leverage stood at 4.3x as of September 30, 2019.
For the remainder of 2019, we anticipate spending an additional amount of approximately $27.5 million in capital expenditures, which breaks out as follows: approximately $10.0 million to complete the Hilton conversions at Hilton La Romana All-Inclusive Resort and Hilton Playa del Carmen All-Inclusive Resort, approximately $12.5 million to finish the construction of Hyatt Ziva and Hyatt Zilara Cap Cana, and approximately $5.0 million in maintenance capital expenditures. All development and rebranding projects currently remain on-time and on-budget with anticipated openings in the fourth quarter of 2019.

On December 17, 2018, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $100.0 million of our outstanding ordinary shares as market conditions and the Company’s liquidity warrant. During the third quarter of 2019, we purchased 846,418 of our ordinary shares at an average price of $7.54 per share. From October 1, 2019 through October 31, 2019 we purchased an additional 139,649 of our ordinary shares at an average price of $7.74 per share. As of October 31, 2019, we have purchased a total of 1,536,074 shares and there was approximately $88.3 million remaining under our share repurchase authorization.

Guidance
Achievement of the anticipated results is subject to the risks disclosed in the Company’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company expects Adjusted EBITDA for the full year 2019 to be as follows:
 
 
Low End
 
High End
Adjusted EBITDA
 
$150.0 million
 
$153.0 million

Our 2019 outlook is predicated on the following assumptions:
 
Comparable revenue growth: low single digit decline;
The change to our full year Adjusted EBITDA forecast primarily reflects the change in our outlook for the Dominican Republic, and the write-off of receivables associated with the bankruptcy of Thomas Cook;
$25 - $30 million of forgone EBITDA owing to the rebranding and renovations at the Hilton La Romana All-Inclusive Resort and the Hilton Playa del Carmen All-Inclusive Resort;
$1 - $2 million in incremental property-level environmental taxes and minimum wage related increases;
A full year contribution from the Sagicor portfolio, which we acquired in June of 2018; and
Potential future acquisitions, dispositions, or management agreement changes are explicitly excluded from our outlook.

The Company is unable to provide a reconciliation of our 2019 Adjusted EBITDA outlook to our anticipated 2019 U.S. GAAP net income as we are unable to reasonably estimate the impact of our income tax provision, which could be significantly impacted by several factors including future fluctuations in foreign currencies.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains ‘‘forward-looking statements,’’ as defined by federal securities laws.

The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “will,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “may,” “plan,” “estimate,” “intend,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” and the negatives of these words and other similar expressions generally identify forward looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including those described under the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Playa’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on February 28, 2019, as such factors may be updated from time to time in Playa’s periodic filings with the SEC, which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause actual outcomes or results to differ materially from those indicated in these statements. These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included in this release and in Playa’s filings with the SEC. While forward-looking statements reflect Playa’s good faith beliefs, they are not guarantees of future performance.

Definitions of Non-U.S. GAAP Measures and Operating Statistics
Occupancy
“Occupancy” represents the total number of rooms sold for a period divided by the total number of rooms available during such period. The total number of rooms available excludes any rooms considered “Out of Order” due to renovation or a temporary problem rendering them inadequate for occupancy for an extended period of time. Occupancy is a useful measure of the utilization of a resort’s total available capacity and can be used to gauge demand at a specific resort or group of properties during a given period. Occupancy levels also enable us to optimize Net Package ADR by increasing or decreasing the stated rate for our all-inclusive packages as demand for a resort increases or decreases.
Net Package Average Daily Rate (“Net Package ADR”)
“Net Package ADR” represents total Net Package Revenue for a period divided by the total number of rooms sold during such period. Net Package ADR trends and patterns provide useful information concerning the pricing environment and the nature of the guest base of our portfolio or comparable portfolio, as applicable. Net Package ADR is a commonly used performance measure in the all-inclusive segment of the lodging industry, and is commonly used to assess the stated rates that guests are willing to pay through various distribution channels.
Net Package Revenue per Available Room (“Net Package RevPAR”)
“Net Package RevPAR” is the product of Net Package ADR and the average daily occupancy percentage. Net Package RevPAR does not reflect the impact of non-package revenue. Although Net Package RevPAR does not include this additional revenue, it generally is considered the key performance measure in the all-inclusive segment of the lodging industry to identify trend information with respect to net room revenue produced by our portfolio or comparable portfolio, as applicable, and to evaluate operating performance on a consolidated basis or a regional basis, as applicable.
Net Package Revenue, Net Non-package Revenue, Owned Net Revenue, Management Fee Revenue, Cost Reimbursements and Total Net Revenue
“Net Package Revenue” is derived from the sale of all-inclusive packages, which include room accommodations, food and beverage services and entertainment activities, net of compulsory tips paid to employees. Government mandated compulsory tips in the Dominican Republic are not included in this adjustment, as they are already excluded from revenue. Revenue is recognized, net of discounts and rebates, when the rooms are occupied and/or the relevant services have been rendered. Advance deposits received from guests are deferred and included in trade and other payables until the rooms are occupied and/or the relevant services have been rendered, at which point the revenue is recognized.

“Net Non-package Revenue” represents all other revenues earned from the operations of our resorts, other than Net Package Revenue, net of compulsory tips paid to employees. Government mandated compulsory tips in the Dominican Republic are not included in this adjustment, as they are already excluded from revenue. Net Non-package Revenue includes revenue associated with guests' purchases of upgrades, premium services and amenities, such as premium rooms, dining experiences, wines and spirits and spa packages, which are not included in the all-inclusive package. Revenue not included in a guest’s all-inclusive package is recognized when the goods are consumed.

“Owned Net Revenue” represents Net Package Revenue and Net Non-package Revenue. Owned Net Revenue represents a key indicator to assess the overall performance of our business and analyze trends, such as consumer demand, brand preference and competition. In analyzing our Owned Net Revenues, our management differentiates between Net Package Revenue and Net Non-package Revenue. Guests at our resorts purchase packages at stated rates, which include room accommodations, food and beverage services and entertainment activities, in contrast to other lodging business models, which typically only include the room accommodations in the stated rate. The

 Page 6

    

amenities at all-inclusive resorts typically include a variety of buffet and á la carte restaurants, bars, activities, and shows and entertainment throughout the day.

“Management Fee Revenue” is derived from fees earned for managing hotels owned by third-parties. The fees earned are typically composed of a base fee, which is computed as a percentage of revenue, and an incentive fee, which is computed as a percentage of profitability. Management Fee Revenue had a minor contribution to our operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, but we expect Management Fee Revenue to be a more relevant indicator to assess the overall performance of our business in the future as we enter into more management contracts.

“Total Net Revenue” represents Net Package Revenue, Net Non-package Revenue and Management Fee Revenue. “Cost Reimbursements” is excluded from Total Net Revenue as it is not considered a key indicator of financial and operating performance. Cost Reimbursements is derived from the reimbursement of certain costs incurred by Playa on behalf of resorts managed by Playa and owned by third parties. This revenue is fully offset by reimbursable costs and has no net impact on operating (loss) income or net (loss) income.
The following table shows a reconciliation of Net Package Revenue, Net Non-package Revenue and Management Fee Revenue to total revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 ($ in thousands):

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Owned Resort EBITDA, Owned Resort EBITDA Margin and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
We define EBITDA, a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure, as net income or loss, determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, for the period presented, before interest expense, income tax and depreciation and amortization expense. We define Adjusted EBITDA, a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure, as EBITDA further adjusted to exclude the following items:
Other expense
Pre-opening expense
Transaction expenses
Severance expense
Other tax expense
Gain on property damage insurance proceeds
Share-based compensation
Loss on extinguishment of debt
Other items which may include, but are not limited to the following: management contract termination fees; gains or losses from legal settlements; repairs from hurricanes and tropical storms; impairment losses and Jamaica delayed opening accrual reversals.
We include the non-service cost components of net periodic pension cost recorded within other expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in calculating Adjusted EBITDA as they are considered part of our ongoing resort operations.
“Owned Resort EBITDA” represents Adjusted EBITDA before corporate expenses and Management Fee Revenue.
“Owned Resort EBITDA Margin” represents Owned Resort EBITDA as a percentage of Owned Net Revenue.
“Adjusted EBITDA Margin” represents Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of Total Net Revenue.
Adjusted Net (Loss) Income
Adjusted Net (Loss) Income” represents net income or loss attributable to Playa, determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding special items which are not reflective of our core operating performance, such as one-time expenses related to transaction expenses.
Non-U.S. GAAP Measures
Net Package Revenue, Net Non-package Revenue, Owned Net Revenue, Total Net Revenue, Net Package ADR, Net Package RevPAR and Net Direct Expenses are all useful to investors as they more accurately reflect our operating results by excluding compulsory tips. These tips have a margin of zero and do not represent our operating results.
We also believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors for two principal reasons. First, we believe Adjusted EBITDA assists investors in comparing our performance over various reporting periods on a consistent basis by removing from our operating results the impact of items that do not reflect our core operating performance. For example, changes in foreign exchange rates (which are the principal driver of changes in other expense), and expenses related to capital raising, strategic initiatives and other corporate initiatives, such as expansion into new markets (which are the principal drivers of changes in transaction expenses), are not indicative of the operating performance of our resorts. The other adjustments included in our definition of Adjusted EBITDA relate to items that occur infrequently and therefore would obstruct the comparability of our operating results over reporting periods. For example, revenue from insurance policies, other than business interruption insurance policies, is

 Page 8

    

infrequent in nature, and we believe excluding these expense and revenue items permits investors to better evaluate the core operating performance of our resorts over time. We believe Adjusted EBITDA Margin provides our investors a useful measurement of operating profitability for the same reasons we find Adjusted EBITDA useful.
The second principal reason that we believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors is that it is considered a key performance indicator by our board of directors (our “Board”) and management. In addition, the compensation committee of our Board determines the annual variable compensation for certain members of our management based, in part, on consolidated Adjusted EBITDA. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because it provides investors with information utilized by our Board and management to assess our performance and may (subject to the limitations described below) enable investors to compare the performance of our portfolio to our competitors.

Adjusted Net Income is non-GAAP performance measure that provides meaningful comparisons of ongoing operating results, by removing from net income the impact of items that do not reflect our normalized operations.
Any of our non-U.S. GAAP financial measures are not substitutes for revenue, net income or any other measure determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. There are limitations to the utility of non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, such as Adjusted EBITDA. For example, other companies in our industry may define Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do. As a result, it may be difficult to use Adjusted EBITDA or similarly named non-U.S. GAAP financial measures that other companies publish to compare the performance of those companies to our performance. Because of these limitations, our non-U.S. GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a measure of the income or loss generated by our business or discretionary cash available for investment in our business, and investors should carefully consider our U.S. GAAP results presented. A reconciliation of net income as computed under U.S. GAAP to Adjusted Net (Loss) Income is presented below.
Comparable Non-U.S. GAAP Measures
We believe that presenting Adjusted EBITDA, Total Net Revenue, Net Package Revenue and Net Non-package Revenue on a comparable basis is useful to investors because these measures include only the results of resorts owned and in operation for the entirety of the periods presented and thereby eliminate disparities in results due to the acquisition or disposition of resorts or the impact of resort closures or re-openings in connection with redevelopment or renovation projects. As a result, we believe these measures provide more consistent metrics for comparing the performance of our operating resorts. We calculate Comparable Adjusted EBITDA, Comparable Total Net Revenue, Comparable Net Package Revenue and Comparable Net Non-package Revenue as the total amount of each respective measure less amounts attributable to non-comparable resorts, by which we mean resorts that were not owned or in operation during some or all of the relevant reporting period.
Our comparable resorts for the three months ended September 30, 2019 exclude the following: Hilton La Romana All-Inclusive Resort and Hilton Playa del Carmen All-Inclusive Resort, which are currently under renovation, Jewel Grande Montego Bay Resort & Spa, which was under renovation in 2018, and Hyatt Ziva and Hyatt Zilara Cap Cana, a ground-up development open during November 2019.

Our comparable resorts for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 exclude the following: Hilton La Romana All-Inclusive Resort and Hilton Playa del Carmen All-Inclusive Resort, which are currently under renovation, Hilton Rose Hall Resort & Spa, Jewel Runaway Bay Beach & Golf Resort, Jewel Dunn’s River Beach Resort & Spa, Jewel Paradise Cove Beach Resort & Spa and Jewel Grande Montego Bay Resort & Spa, which were acquired on June 1, 2018, and Hyatt Ziva and Hyatt Zilara Cap Cana, a ground-up development open during November 2019.

A reconciliation of net income as computed under U.S. GAAP to comparable Adjusted EBITDA is presented below. For a reconciliation of Comparable Net Package Revenue, Comparable Net Non-package Revenue, Comparable Management Fee Revenue and Comparable Total Net Revenue to total revenue as computed under U.S. GAAP, see “Net Package Revenue, Net Non-package Revenue, Owned Net Revenue, Management Fee Revenue, Cost Reimbursements and Total Net Revenue” in this section.

(a)
The increases in depreciation and amortization expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 were a result of renovations at the Hilton La Romana All-Inclusive Resort and Hilton Playa del Carmen All-Inclusive Resort, which included accelerated depreciation on asset disposals.
(b) 
Represents changes in foreign exchange and other miscellaneous expenses or income.
(c) 
Represents expenses incurred in connection with corporate initiatives, such as: debt refinancing costs; other capital raising efforts including our business combination with Sagicor in 2018; the redesign and build-out of our internal controls and strategic initiatives, such as the launch of a new resort or possible expansion into new markets.
(d) 
Represents expenses incurred for employee terminations.
(e) 
Relates primarily to a Dominican Republic asset/revenue tax, which is an alternative tax to income tax in the Dominican Republic. We eliminate this expense from Adjusted EBITDA because it is substantially similar to the income tax provision we eliminate from our calculation of EBITDA. Other Tax Benefit in the third quarter of 2019 is related to an asset tax exemption received within the quarter, which resulted in a reversal of the previously recorded expense.
(f)  
Represents a reversal on an expense accrual recorded in 2014 related to our future stay obligations provided to guests affected by the delayed opening of Hyatt Ziva and Hyatt Zilara Rose Hall. This reversal concluded in the first quarter of 2018.
(g) 
Represents the non-service cost components of net periodic pension cost recorded within other expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. We include these costs for the purposes of calculating Adjusted EBITDA as they are considered part of our ongoing resort operations.  
(h) 
Non-comparable Owned Resort EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2019 includes the Hilton La Romana All-Inclusive Resort, Hilton Playa del Carmen All-Inclusive Resort, Jewel Grande Montego Bay Resort & Spa and Hyatt Ziva and Hyatt Zilara Cap Cana. Non-comparable Owned Resort EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 includes the Hilton La Romana All-Inclusive Resort, Hilton Playa del Carmen All-Inclusive Resort, Hilton Rose Hall Resort & Spa, Jewel Runaway Bay Beach & Golf Resort, Jewel Dunn’s River Beach Resort & Spa, Jewel Paradise Cove Beach Resort & Spa, Jewel Grande Montego Bay Resort & Spa and Hyatt Ziva and Hyatt Zilara Cap Cana.

(1) 
As of September 30, 2019, the total borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility was $100.0 million. The interest rate on outstanding balances of our revolving credit facility is L+300 bps with no LIBOR floor. As of September 30, 2019, the commitment fee on undrawn balances of our revolving credit facility was 0.5%.
(2) 
The interest rate on our term loan is L+275 bps with a LIBOR floor of 1%. The interest rate was 4.79% as of September 30, 2019, which includes the LIBOR rate that was locked in on September 27, 2019 for the 1-month period of September 30, 2019 to October 30, 2019. Effective March 29, 2018, we entered into two interest rate swaps to mitigate the long term interest rate risk inherent in our variable rate Term Loan. The interest rate swaps have an aggregate fixed notional value of $800.0 million. The fixed rate paid by us is 2.85% and the variable rate received resets monthly to the one-month LIBOR rate.
(3) 
Based on cash balances on hand as of September 30, 2019.

Yucatán Peninsula
Comparable Net Package RevPAR decreased 5.4% over the same period in the prior year, driven by a decrease in Net Package ADR of 6.3% and partially offset by an increase in Occupancy of 80 basis points.
Comparable Owned Resort EBITDA decreased $1.4 million or 9.4% over the prior year.
Excluding Hyatt Ziva Cancún, Comparable Owned Resort EBITDA at all other properties decreased $2.0 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018.

Pacific Coast
Comparable Net Package RevPAR increased 9.0% over the same period in the prior year, driven by an increase in Occupancy of 360 basis points and an increase in Net Package ADR of 3.9%.
Comparable Owned Resort EBITDA increased $1.6 million or 56.7% over the prior year.
This increase was due to increased Comparable Owned Net Revenue, as well as a continued focus on controlling operating expenses by both properties within this segment.

Dominican Republic
Comparable Net Package RevPAR decreased 30.8% over the same period in prior year, driven by a decrease in Occupancy of 1,970 basis points and a decrease in Net Package ADR of 8.1%.
Comparable Owned Resort EBITDA decreased $3.4 million, or 80.9%, over the prior year.
This decrease was a direct impact of the decrease in Comparable Net Package RevPAR discussed above. The negative press regarding the Dominican Republic, and corresponding near-term business disruption, had a negative impact on third quarter results in this segment.

Jamaica
Comparable Net Package RevPAR increased 7.9% over the same period in prior year, driven by an increase in Net Package ADR of 2.6% and an increase in Occupancy of 390 basis points.
Comparable Owned Resort EBITDA increased $2.1 million, or 31.4%, over the prior year.
This increase was due to the performance of Hyatt Ziva and Hyatt Zilara Rose Hall which accounted for a $1.8 million increase compared to three months ended September 30, 2018. This property continues to show positive results after the completion of renovations in 2017 combined with improvements in cost control and expansion of direct sales channels.

Comparable Owned Resort EBITDA decreased $7.2 million or 11.2% over the prior year.
Excluding Panama Jack Resorts Cancún, Comparable Owned Resort EBITDA at all other properties decreased $7.5 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018. All properties within this segment have also been affected by increased insurance premiums and energy costs year over year which contributed to a $1.0 million decrease in Comparable Owned Resort EBITDA compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Pacific Coast
Comparable Net Package RevPAR increased 2.8% over the same period in prior year, driven by an increase in Net Package ADR of 3.6% and partially offset by a decrease in Occupancy of 50 basis points.
Comparable Owned Resort EBITDA increased $2.1 million or 9.1% over the prior year.

Dominican Republic
Comparable Net Package RevPAR decreased 9.3% over the same period in prior year, driven by a decrease in Occupancy of 890 basis points and partially offset by an increase in Net Package ADR of 1.3%.
Comparable Owned Resort EBITDA decreased $4.8 million, or 22.1%, over the prior year.
This decrease was due to the performance of all properties in this segment, driven primarily by Dreams Punta Cana due to a non-recurring prior year gain from business interruption insurance proceeds of $1.5 million received during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The negative press regarding the Dominican Republic, and corresponding near-term business disruption, had a negative impact on third quarter results in this segment.

Comparable Owned Resort EBITDA increased $4.7 million, or 26.1%, over the prior year.
This increase was due to the performance of Hyatt Ziva and Hyatt Zilara Rose Hall, which accounted for the full $4.7 million increase in Comparable Owned Resort EBITDA compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018. This property continues to show positive growth after the completion of renovations in 2017.
