Ryman Hospitality Properties, Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2024 Results

 

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (July 31, 2024) – Ryman Hospitality Properties, Inc. (NYSE: RHP), a lodging real estate investment trust (“REIT”) specializing in group-oriented, destination hotel assets in urban and resort markets, today reported financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.

 

Second Quarter 2024 Highlights and Recent Developments:

 

·The Company generated record second quarter net income of $104.7 million and record second quarter net income available to common stockholders of $100.8 million, which were records even without the impact of the Tennessee franchise tax refunds for prior years of approximately $9.1 million.1

 

·Reported record second quarter consolidated revenue of $613.3 million, including record second quarter same-store Hospitality revenue of $456.2 million. 2

 

·Achieved all-time record consolidated operating income of $168.1 million and all-time record consolidated Adjusted EBITDAre of $233.2 million, which were records even without the impact of the Tennessee franchise tax refunds.

 

·During the second quarter, the Company booked over 781,000 same-store Gross Definite Room Nights for all future years, at a record future estimated average daily rate (ADR) of $284, an increase of 7.3% over Q2 2023 estimated ADR for future bookings.

 

·The Company refinanced Opry Entertainment Group’s term loan B and revolving credit facility with a new $300 million term loan B and $80 million revolving credit facility. The refinanced credit facility and term loan B also reduce the applicable interest rate spread on SOFR loans and extend the applicable maturity dates by two years.

 

·The Company is raising its full year 2024 outlook for consolidated net income, operating income, Adjusted EBITDAre and adjusted funds from operations (AFFO), primarily to reflect Tennessee franchise tax savings and estimated cash interest expense savings from the OEG refinancing. The Company is lowering its outlook for same-store Hospitality RevPAR and Total RevPAR growth to account for continued leisure transient softness.

 

Mark Fioravanti, President and Chief Executive Officer of Ryman Hospitality Properties, said, “Our second quarter results continue to demonstrate the strength of both business segments, delivering record second quarter net income, and all-time records for consolidated operating income and consolidated Adjusted EBITDAre despite some expected construction disruption and continued leisure transient softness. Projected rooms revenue from second quarter bookings production for all future years set a second quarter record for the same-store portfolio, which together with all-time record banquet and AV results indicate our core group customer demand remains strong.”

 

 

1 In May 2024, Tennessee amended its franchise tax law, making the Company eligible for refunds for the prior tax years of 2020 through 2023. The Company’s aggregate eligible refunds total approximately $9.1 million (reflected as a reduction in operating expenses), which is allocated by segment in the following approximate amounts in second quarter 2024: $5.6 million (Hospitality), $3.4 million (Entertainment) and $0.1 million (Corporate & Other).

 

2 Same-store Hospitality portfolio excludes JW Marriott Hill Country, which was acquired June 30, 2023.

Fioravanti continued, “Our Entertainment business delivered solid performance, including an all-time quarterly record for revenue led by the Grand Ole Opry and our Ole Red brand. We are particularly pleased with these results given the planned construction-related disruption at Category 10 and the W Austin Hotel at Block 21. We look forward to their enhanced contribution in 2025.”

2024 Guidance

 

Fioravanti concluded, “We are pleased to increase our full year 2024 outlook for consolidated net income, operating income, Adjusted EBITDAre and Adjusted FFO, to reflect the change in Tennessee franchise tax law and estimated cash interest expense savings from the OEG refinancing. Our outlook assumes continued strength in our group business and our anticipated strong operating expense discipline, which we believe will offset the profitability impact of continued leisure transient softness. We remain confident in our group-centric model and the investments we are making across our portfolio to continue to create value for our guests and shareholders.”

 

The Company is updating its 2024 business performance outlook based on current information as of July 31, 2024. The Company does not expect to update the guidance provided below before next quarter’s earnings release. However, the Company may update its full business outlook or any portion thereof at any time for any reason.

Additional Information

 

This release should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. Copies of our reports are available on our website at no expense at www.rymanhp.com and through the SEC’s Electronic Data Gathering Analysis and Retrieval System (“EDGAR”) at www.sec.gov.

 

Calculation of RevPAR and Total RevPAR

 

We calculate revenue per available room (“RevPAR”) for our hotels by dividing room revenue by room nights available to guests for the period. We calculate total revenue per available room (“Total RevPAR”) for our hotels by dividing the sum of room revenue, food & beverage, and other ancillary services revenue by room nights available to guests for the period. Hospitality metrics do not include the results of the W Austin, which is included in the Entertainment segment.

 

Calculation of GAAP Margin Figures

 

We calculate Net Income available to common stockholders margin by dividing GAAP consolidated Net Income available to common stockholders by GAAP consolidated Total Revenue. We calculate consolidated, segment or property-level Operating Income Margin by dividing consolidated, segment or property-level GAAP Operating Income by consolidated, segment or property-level GAAP Revenue.

 

 11

 

 

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

We present the following non-GAAP financial measures we believe are useful to investors as key measures of our operating performance:

 

EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre, Excluding Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Joint Venture Definition

 

We calculate EBITDAre, which is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) in its September 2017 white paper as Net Income (calculated in accordance with GAAP) plus interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, gains or losses on the disposition of depreciated property (including gains or losses on change in control), impairment write-downs of depreciated property and of investments in unconsolidated affiliates caused by a decrease in the value of depreciated property of the affiliate, and adjustments to reflect the entity’s share of EBITDAre of unconsolidated affiliates.

 

Adjusted EBITDAre is then calculated as EBITDAre, plus to the extent the following adjustments occurred during the periods presented:

 

·preopening costs;

 

·non-cash lease expense;

 

·equity-based compensation expense;

 

·impairment charges that do not meet the NAREIT definition above;

 

·credit losses on held-to-maturity securities;

 

·transaction costs of acquisitions;

 

·interest income on bonds;

 

·loss on extinguishment of debt;

 

·pension settlement charges;

 

·pro rata Adjusted EBITDAre from unconsolidated joint ventures; and

 

·any other adjustments we have identified herein.

 

We then exclude the pro rata share of Adjusted EBITDAre related to noncontrolling interests in consolidated joint ventures to calculate Adjusted EBITDAre, Excluding Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Joint Venture.

 

We use EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre, Excluding Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Joint Venture and segment or property-level EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre to evaluate our operating performance. We believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors regarding our operating performance and debt leverage metrics, and that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, when combined with the primary GAAP presentation of Net Income or Operating Income, as applicable, is beneficial to an investor’s complete understanding of our operating performance. We make additional adjustments to EBITDAre when evaluating our performance because we believe that presenting Adjusted EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre, Excluding Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Joint Venture provides useful information to investors regarding our operating performance and debt leverage metrics.

 

 12

 

 

 

Adjusted EBITDAre Margin and Adjusted EBITDAre, Excluding Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Joint Venture Margin Definition

 

We calculate consolidated Adjusted EBITDAre, Excluding Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Joint Venture Margin by dividing consolidated Adjusted EBITDAre, Excluding Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Joint Venture by GAAP consolidated Total Revenue. We calculate consolidated, segment or property-level Adjusted EBITDAre Margin by dividing consolidated, segment-, or property-level Adjusted EBITDAre by consolidated, segment-, or property-level GAAP Revenue. We believe Adjusted EBITDAre, Excluding Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Joint Venture Margin is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because this non-GAAP financial measure helps investors evaluate and compare the results of our operations from period to period by presenting a ratio showing the quantitative relationship between Adjusted EBITDAre, Excluding Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Joint Venture and GAAP consolidated Total Revenue or segment or property-level GAAP Revenue, as applicable.

 

FFO, Adjusted FFO, and Adjusted FFO available to common stockholders and unit holders Definition

 

We calculate FFO, which definition is clarified by NAREIT in its December 2018 white paper as Net Income (calculated in accordance with GAAP) excluding depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs and debt discounts), gains and losses from the sale of certain real estate assets, gains and losses from a change in control, impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciated real estate held by the entity, income (loss) from consolidated joint ventures attributable to noncontrolling interest, and pro rata adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures.

 

To calculate Adjusted FFO available to common stockholders and unit holders, we then exclude, to the extent the following adjustments occurred during the periods presented:

 

·right-of-use asset amortization;

 

·impairment charges that do not meet the NAREIT definition above;

 

·write-offs of deferred financing costs;

 

·amortization of debt discounts or premiums and amortization of deferred financing costs;

 

·loss on extinguishment of debt;

 

·non-cash lease expense;

 

·credit loss on held-to-maturity securities;

 

·pension settlement charges;

 

·additional pro rata adjustments from unconsolidated joint ventures;

 

·(gains) losses on other assets;

 

·transaction costs on acquisitions;

 

·deferred income tax expense (benefit); and

 

·any other adjustments we have identified herein.

 

13

 

 

We present Adjusted FFO available to common stockholders and unit holders per diluted share as a non-GAAP measure of our performance in addition to our net income available to common stockholders per diluted share (calculated in accordance with GAAP). We calculate Adjusted FFO available to common stockholders and unit holders per diluted share as our Adjusted FFO (defined as set forth above) for a given operating period, as adjusted for the effect of dilutive securities, divided by the number of diluted shares and units outstanding during such period.

 

We believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors regarding the performance of our ongoing operations because each presents a measure of our operations without regard to specified non-cash items such as real estate depreciation and amortization, gain or loss on sale of assets and certain other items, which we believe are not indicative of the performance of our underlying hotel properties. We believe that these items are more representative of our asset base than our ongoing operations. We also use these non-GAAP financial measures as measures in determining our results after considering the impact of our capital structure.

 

We caution investors that non-GAAP financial measures we present may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other companies, because not all companies calculate these non-GAAP measures in the same manner. The non-GAAP financial measures we present, and any related per share measures, should not be considered as alternative measures of our Net Income, operating performance, cash flow or liquidity. These non-GAAP financial measures may include funds that may not be available for our discretionary use due to functional requirements to conserve funds for capital expenditures and property acquisitions and other commitments and uncertainties. Although we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures can enhance an investor’s understanding of our results of operations, these non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed individually, are not necessarily better indicators of any trend as compared to GAAP measures such as Net Income (Loss), Operating Income (Loss), or cash flow from operations.
