BETHESDA, Md.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Pebblebrook Hotel Trust (NYSE: PEB) (the “Company”) today announced that
it has acquired The Tuscan Fisherman’s Wharf, a Best Western Plus Hotel
(“The Tuscan”) for $122.0 million. The 221-room hotel is located in the
heart of Fisherman’s Wharf in San Francisco, California. The property
will continue to be managed by Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants (“Kimpton”).
“We’re excited about our acquisition of The Tuscan, which marks our
seventh hotel investment in the highly desirable San Francisco market
and our third in the dynamic Fisherman’s Wharf submarket,” said Jon
Bortz, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Pebblebrook Hotel Trust.
“The hotel’s location is central to many popular area attractions
including Pier 39, Ghirardelli Square, and many dining and retail
venues, and is reflected in the hotel’s high occupancy levels and strong
cash flows. The repositioning opportunity at The Tuscan combined with
the revitalization of the entire Fisherman’s Wharf market makes us
excited to add this hotel to our expanding portfolio.”
The 221-room, full-service hotel is located just one block from the
Company’s Hotel Zephyr (formerly Radisson Fisherman’s Wharf). The
property benefits from its location within San Francisco, which
continues to serve as a West Coast hub for tourism, technology,
biomedical, life sciences, banking and financial services.
The Tuscan, which was built in 1990, underwent a $3.6 million renovation
in 2012, impacting all areas of the hotel. The property’s unique
features, such as the hotel’s corner location and central, open-air
garden courtyard, allows for abundant natural light throughout the
guestrooms, and an on-site, 69-space subterranean parking lot,
distinguishes this boutique hotel amongst its competitors. Pescatore,
the hotel’s signature 84-seat restaurant, is popular among guests and
locals, offering contemporary Italian cuisine and outdoor dining along
the well-traveled Fisherman’s Wharf frontage. The hotel also offers
2,000 square feet of meeting and banquet facilities, a business center,
access to a 24-hour fitness facility and valet parking in the hotel’s
69-space below-grade parking facility.
In 2014, The Tuscan operated at 90 percent occupancy, with an average
daily rate (“ADR”) of $219 and room revenue per available room
(“RevPAR”) of $198. During the next 12 months, the Company currently
forecasts that the hotel will generate earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) of $8.4 to $8.9 million and net
operating income after capital reserves (“NOI”) of $7.5 to $8.0 million.
The Company plans to invest $13.0 to $15.0 million between 2016 and 2017
in a complete renovation and repositioning of the hotel, including all
guestrooms and public areas. The renovation is expected to commence in
the fourth quarter of 2016.
“We’re thrilled to continue to grow our successful relationship with
Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants,” noted Mr. Bortz. “The acquisition of The
Tuscan marks our eleventh Kimpton-managed property, and our fifth
Kimpton-managed hotel in San Francisco, and we look forward to working
with Kimpton to create additional value at this hotel.”
“We are confident that partnering with Pebblebrook Hotel Trust on The
Tuscan will position the property for continued success in the years to
come,” said Kimpton’s Chief Executive Officer, Mike DeFrino.
The Company expects to incur approximately $3.4 million of costs related
to the acquisition of the hotel.
The acquisition of The Tuscan brings the total number of properties in
the Company’s portfolio to 37 and marks the Company’s seventh investment
in San Francisco, California, including its third hotel in the highly
desirable Fisherman’s Wharf submarket.

recent increase to its senior unsecured revolving credit facility, new
$125.0 million term loan and its acquisition of The Tuscan, is as

| This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures
as defined under Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Rules.
These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to,
measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles, or GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP
measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP
measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules
or principles. Non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do
not reflect all of the amounts associated with the hotel’s results
of operations determined in accordance with GAAP.
The Company has presented forecasted hotel EBITDA and
forecasted hotel net operating income after capital reserves,
because it believes these measures provide investors and analysts
with an understanding of the hotel-level operating performance.
These non-GAAP measures do not represent amounts available for
management’s discretionary use, because of needed capital
replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other
commitments and uncertainties, nor are they indicative of funds
available to fund the Company’s cash needs, including its ability
to make distributions.
The Company’s presentation of the hotel’s forecasted EBITDA and
forecasted net operating income after capital reserves should not
be considered as an alternative to net income (computed in
accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of the hotel’s financial
performance. The table above is a reconciliation of the hotel’s
forecasted EBITDA and net operating income after capital reserves
calculations to net income in accordance with GAAP. |
