- Development Pipeline: The Company has contracts to purchase two hotels under development (Nashville and Anchorage) totaling $163.7 million and has initiated a $143.7 million development project in Las Vegas.
- Risks: Key risks include interest rate volatility (32% of debt is variable), inflationary pressure on labor and operating costs, and potential extended government shutdowns impacting travel demand.
