FelCor Lodging Trust Incorporated (NYSE:FCH), or FelCor, is a Maryland corporation operating as a real estate investment trust, or REIT. FelCor is the sole general partner of, and the owner of a greater than 99.5% partnership interest in, FelCor Lodging Limited Partnership, or FelCor LP, through which we held ownership interests in 39 hotels as of March 31, 2017. At March 31, 2017, we had an aggregate of 139,018,793 shares and units outstanding, consisting of 138,408,610 shares of FelCor common stock and 610,183 FelCor LP units not owned by FelCor.
Of our 39 hotels, as of March 31, 2017, we owned 100% interests in 36 hotels, a 95% interest in one hotel (The Knickerbocker) and 50% interests in entities owning two hotels. We consolidate our real estate interests in the 37 hotels in which we hold majority interests, and we record the real estate interests of the two hotels in which we hold indirect 50% interests using the equity method. We lease 38 of the 39 hotels to our taxable REIT subsidiaries, of which we own a controlling interest. We operate one 50% owned hotel without a lease. Because we own controlling interests in our operating lessees, we consolidate our interests in all 38 leased hotels (which we refer to as our Consolidated Hotels) and reflect their operating revenues and expenses in our statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). We own 50% of the real estate interest in one Consolidated Hotel (we account for our real estate interest in this hotel by the equity method) and majority real estate interests in our remaining 37 Consolidated Hotels (we consolidate our real estate interests in these hotels).

FelCor LP is a variable interest entity of FelCor. As FelCor LP is consolidated in the balance sheets of FelCor, the identification of this entity as a variable interest entity has no impact on the consolidated financial statements of FelCor.
The information in our consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 is unaudited. Preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The accompanying financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, include adjustments based on management’s estimates (consisting of normal and recurring accruals), which we consider necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods. The financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of actual operating results for the entire year.
