2Based on 86,735,000 weighted average diluted units and 68,952,000 weighted average diluted units for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, respectively, and 86,660,000 weighted average diluted units and 67,598,000 weighted average diluted units for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2014, respectively. In this press release, references to “diluted units” mean diluted shares of the Company’s common stock and common units of limited partnership interest in Summit Hotel OP, LP, the Company’s operating partnership, held by limited partners other than the Company. In general, common units held by limited partners other than the Company are redeemable for cash or, at the Company’s option, shares of the Company’s common stock on a one-for-one basis.

3Unless stated otherwise in this release, all pro forma information includes operating and financial results for 89 hotels owned as of June 30, 2014 as if each hotel had been owned by the Company since January 1, 2013 and excludes the 178-guestroom Hampton Inn located in Fort Smith, Ark. that was held for sale at June 30, 2014. As a result, all pro forma information includes operating and financial results for hotels acquired since January 1, 2013 for periods prior to the Company’s ownership.

“The first six months of 2014 have been really strong for both Summit and the industry as a whole,” commented Hansen. “The increased momentum that began late in 2013 has continued with robust demand in both the business and leisure segments, which we believe puts our portfolio in an excellent position for continued growth.”

Year-to-Date Highlights

Capital Investment

Acquisitions

During the second quarter of 2014, the Company acquired the remaining 19 percent non-controlling interest in its joint venture with an affiliate of Intercontinental Hotels Group (“IHG”) that owns the Holiday Inn Express & Suites located in San Francisco, Calif. for $8.2 million. As a result, this hotel property became wholly-owned by the Company.

“IHG has been a great partner and we look forward to additional opportunities to partner with them in our target markets,” Hansen commented.

Pro forma RevPAR among the 23 hotels acquired since January 2013 was $118.06 in the second quarter of 2014 compared to $88.28 for the 66 hotels classified as same-store during the period.

Renovation Capital

The Company invested $6.0 million in renovations in the second quarter of 2014. Among the five renovations during the quarter, the scope of work ranged from common space improvements to complete guestroom renovations, including furniture, soft goods and guest bathrooms. Since the end of the first quarter of 2014, the Company has added 15 guestrooms to its portfolio of 90 hotels through renovation and redesign to better utilize existing space, thereby creating and capturing embedded growth for shareholders.

The Company completed a full renovation of its Residence Inn located in Salt Lake City, Utah during the second quarter of 2014. During the renovation, the Company added 11 guestrooms to the property, bringing the total number of guestrooms to 189. The Company converted 24 underutilized two bedroom units to studio and one bedroom units. In addition to the new guestrooms added, all existing guestrooms were remodeled with new finishes, furniture, mattresses, artwork and 42-inch LCD flat screen televisions. The common areas, including the lobby, reception desk, kitchen and dining areas, were redesigned to allow for more space and better functionality for the guests. To further enhance the guest experience, two outdoor patio areas were updated to include barbeques and a fire pit. The renovation was completed with fresh exterior paint and a new parking lot in May of 2014 for a total cost of $6.9 million.

”We are thrilled with the results of the renovation at the Residence Inn located in Salt Lake City. This project highlights the strength of our team and the ability to recognize and capture embedded growth,” Hansen said. “We continue to see the transformation of our portfolio’s quality from the successful execution of strategic capital improvements.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

FFO and Adjusted FFO (“AFFO”)

As defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), funds from operations (“FFO”) represents net income or loss (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, impairment, items classified by GAAP as extraordinary, the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles, plus depreciation and amortization, and adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We present FFO because we consider it an important supplemental measure of our operational performance and believe it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs, many of which present FFO when reporting their results. FFO is intended to exclude GAAP historical cost depreciation and amortization, which assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes ratably over time. Historically, however, real estate values have risen or fallen with market conditions. Because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization unique to real estate, gains and losses from property dispositions and impairment losses, it provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the effect to operations from trends in occupancy, room rates, operating costs, development activities and interest costs, providing perspective not immediately apparent from net income. Our computation of FFO differs from the NAREIT definition and may differ from the methodology for calculating FFO utilized by other equity REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs because the amount of depreciation and amortization we add back to net income or loss includes amortization of deferred financing costs and amortization of franchise royalty fees. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends or make distributions.

We further adjust FFO for certain additional items that are not included in the definition of FFO, such as hotel transaction and pursuit costs, equity based compensation, loan transaction costs, prepayment penalties and certain other expenses, which we refer to as AFFO. We believe that AFFO provides investors with another financial measure that may facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between REITs.

We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our definitions of FFO and AFFO may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other companies, since not all companies calculate these non-GAAP measures in the same manner. FFO and AFFO should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income (loss) as a measure of our operating performance. FFO and AFFO may include funds that may not be available for our discretionary use due to functional requirements to conserve funds for capital expenditures, property acquisitions, debt service obligations and other commitments and uncertainties. Although we believe that FFO and AFFO can enhance your understanding of our financial condition and results of operations, these non-GAAP financial measures are not necessarily better indicators of any trend as compared to a comparable GAAP measure such as net income (loss). Above we have included a quantitative reconciliation of FFO and AFFO to the most directly comparable GAAP financial performance measure, which is net income (loss). Dollar amounts in such reconciliation are in thousands.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, and Hotel EBITDA

EBITDA represents net income or loss, excluding: (i) interest, (ii) income tax expense and (iii) depreciation and amortization. We believe EBITDA is useful to an investor in evaluating our operating performance because it provides investors with an indication of our ability to incur and service debt, to satisfy general operating expenses, to make capital expenditures and to fund other cash needs or reinvest cash into our business. We also believe it helps investors meaningfully evaluate and compare the results of our operations from period to period by removing the effect of our asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) from our operating results. Our management also uses EBITDA as one measure in determining the value of acquisitions and dispositions. We further adjust EBITDA by adding back hotel transaction and pursuit costs, equity based compensation, impairment losses and certain other nonrecurring expenses. We believe that adjusted EBITDA provides investors with another financial measure that may facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between REITs.

With respect to hotel EBITDA, we believe that excluding the effect of corporate-level expenses, non-cash items, and the portion of these items related to discontinued operations, provides a more complete understanding of the operating results over which individual hotels and operators have direct control. We believe the property-level results provide investors with supplemental information on the ongoing operational performance of our hotels and effectiveness of the third-party management companies operating our business on a property-level basis.

We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our definitions of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and hotel EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other companies, since not all companies calculate this non-GAAP measure in the same manner. EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and hotel EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative measure of our net income (loss) or operating performance. EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and hotel EBITDA 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 EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and hotel EBITDA can enhance your understanding of our financial condition and results of operations, this non-GAAP financial measure is not necessarily a better indicator of any trend as compared to a comparable GAAP measure such as net income (loss). Above we include a quantitative reconciliation of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and hotel EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP financial performance measure, which is net income (loss). Dollar amounts in such reconciliation are in thousands.
