Overview
Christopher J. Nassetta, President & Chief Executive Officer of Hilton, said, "We are extremely pleased with our first
quarter as a simplified, fee-driven business following completion of the spin-offs of Park and HGV. We exceeded the high end of our
Adjusted EBITDA and diluted EPS, adjusted for special items, guidance in the quarter and, as a result, we are raising these
guidance ranges for the full year. Strong development momentum continued into 2017, and we expect another record year for
construction starts, openings and net unit growth. We opened nearly 10,000 rooms in the quarter and approved nearly 27,000 rooms
for development, a third of which are for our newest brands."
As a result of the January 2017 spin-offs of Park and HGV, Hilton stockholders of record as of the close of business on December
15, 2016 received one share of Park common stock for every five shares of Hilton common stock and one share of HGV common stock for
every ten shares of Hilton common stock.
In March 2017, HNA Tourism Group Co., Ltd. and certain of its affiliates acquired 82.5 million shares of Hilton common stock, or
a 25 percent equity interest, from affiliates of The Blackstone Group L.P., establishing a long-term strategic investment in
Hilton.
For the first quarter of 2017, system-wide comparable RevPAR grew 3.0 percent primarily from increased occupancy. Management fee
and franchise fee revenues increased as a result of increases in RevPAR of 2.7 percent and 2.9 percent, respectively, at comparable
managed and franchised hotels, as well as from the addition of new managed and franchised properties to Hilton's portfolio.

HILTON WORLDWIDE HOLDINGS INC.
DEFINITIONS
Pro Forma Adjustments
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations is based on Hilton's unaudited condensed consolidated
statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and has been adjusted to reflect the spin-offs of Park and HGV as
if they had occurred on January 1, 2016. The unaudited pro forma adjustments are based on estimates, accounting judgments and
currently available information and assumptions that Hilton management believes are reasonable. The pro forma adjustments include
the following:
(a) |
|
The management and franchise fee revenue related to the management and franchise
agreements with Park, effective at completion of the spin-offs, as well as the franchise fee revenue related to the license
agreement with HGV, effective at completion of the spin-offs. |
|
|
|
(b) |
|
The revenues and expenses for payroll and related costs, certain other operating
costs, marketing expenses and other expenses associated with Hilton's brands and shared services that will be directly
reimbursed to Hilton by Park under the terms of the management and franchise agreements with Park, effective at completion of
the spin-offs. |
|
|
|
(c) |
|
The income tax effect of the pro forma adjustments by applying an estimated statutory
tax rate of 38 percent. |
|
|
|
(d) |
|
Pro forma basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding were based on the
historical weighted average number of common shares outstanding, and the calculation of pro forma diluted weighted average
shares outstanding reflects the effect of the spin-offs. |
Refer to pro forma financial information included in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 4, 2017 for
additional details on the pro forma adjustments.
The adjustments in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations do not include general and
administrative expenses that do not meet the requirements to be presented in discontinued operations as they are not specifically
related to Park or HGV. Accordingly, the pro forma general and administrative expenses are not necessarily indicative of future
general and administrative expenses of Hilton. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations also does not
reflect any cost savings that Hilton believes could have been achieved had the spin-offs been completed on the date indicated.
Trailing Twelve Month Financial Information
This press release also includes certain unaudited financial information for the TTM period ended March 31, 2017, which is
calculated as the three months ended March 31, 2017 plus the actual or pro forma year ended December 31, 2016 and less the actual
or pro forma three months ended March 31, 2016. This presentation is not in accordance with GAAP. However, the Company believes
that this presentation provides useful information to investors regarding its recent financial performance, and it views this
presentation of the four most recently completed fiscal quarters as a key measurement period for investors to assess its historical
results. In addition, the Company’s management uses TTM information to evaluate the Company’s financial performance for ongoing
planning purposes.
Net Income and EPS, Adjusted for Special Items
Net income and EPS, adjusted for special items, are not recognized terms under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives
to net income (loss) or other measures of financial performance or liquidity derived in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the
Company's definition of net income and EPS, adjusted for special items, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other
companies.
Net income and EPS, adjusted for special items, are included to assist investors in performing meaningful comparisons of past,
present and future operating results and as a means of highlighting the results of the Company's ongoing operations.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
Earnings before interest expense, taxes and depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), presented herein, reflects income (loss)
from continuing operations, net of taxes, excluding interest expense, a provision for income taxes and depreciation and
amortization.
Adjusted EBITDA, presented herein, is calculated as EBITDA, as previously defined, further adjusted to exclude certain items,
including gains, losses and expenses in connection with: (i) asset dispositions for both consolidated and unconsolidated
investments; (ii) foreign currency transactions; (iii) debt restructurings/retirements; (iv) furniture, fixtures and equipment
("FF&E") replacement reserves required under certain lease agreements; (v) reorganization costs; (vi) share-based compensation
expense; (vii) non-cash impairment losses; (viii) severance, relocation and other expenses; and (ix) other items.
Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenues, excluding other revenues from managed and
franchised properties.
The Company believes that EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin provide useful information to investors about the
Company and its financial condition and results of operations for the following reasons: (i) these measures are among the measures
used by the Company's management team to evaluate its operating performance and make day-to-day operating decisions; and (ii) these
measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties as a common performance measure to
compare results or estimate valuations across companies in the industry. Additionally, these measures exclude certain items that
can vary widely across different industries and among competitors within the Company's industry. For instance, interest expense and
income tax expense are dependent on company specifics, including, among other things, the Company's capital structure and operating
jurisdictions, respectively, and, therefore could vary significantly across companies. Depreciation and amortization are dependent
upon company policies, including the method of acquiring and depreciating assets and the useful lives that are used. For Adjusted
EBITDA, the Company also excludes items such as (i) share-based compensation expense, as this could vary widely among companies due
to the different plans in place and the usage of them; (ii) FF&E replacement reserve to be consistent with the treatment of
FF&E for its owned and leased hotels where it is capitalized and depreciated over the life of the FF&E and (iii) other
items that are not core to the Company's operations and are not reflective of the Company's performance.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are not recognized terms under GAAP and should not be considered as
alternatives to net income (loss) or other measures of financial performance or liquidity derived in accordance with GAAP. In
addition, the Company's definitions of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin may not be comparable to similarly titled
measures of other companies.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered either in
isolation or as a substitute for net income (loss), cash flow or other methods of analyzing results as reported under GAAP.
Net Debt
Net debt, presented herein, is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Company uses to evaluate its financial leverage. Net
debt is calculated as (i) long-term debt, including current maturities and excluding unamortized deferred financing costs and
discount; and (ii) the Company's share of unconsolidated affiliate debt, excluding unamortized deferred financing costs; reduced by
(a) cash and cash equivalents; and (b) restricted cash and cash equivalents.
The Company believes net debt provides useful information about its indebtedness to investors as it is frequently used by
securities analysts, investors and other interested parties to compare the indebtedness of companies. Net debt should not be
considered as a substitute to debt presented in accordance with GAAP. Net debt may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure
of other companies.
Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio
Net debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio, presented herein, is a non-GAAP financial measure and is included as it is frequently used by
securities analysts, investors and other interested parties to compare the financial condition of companies. Net debt to Adjusted
EBITDA ratio should not be considered as an alternative to measures of financial condition derived in accordance with GAAP, and it
may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of other companies.
Comparable Hotels
The Company defines comparable hotels as those that: (i) were active and operating in the Company's system for at least one full
calendar year as of the end of the current period, and open January 1st of the previous year; (ii) have not undergone a change in
brand or ownership type during the current or comparable periods reported, excluding the hotel properties distributed in the
spin-offs; and (iii) have not sustained substantial property damage, business interruption, undergone large-scale capital projects
or for which comparable results are not available.
Of the 4,934 hotels in the Company's system as of March 31, 2017, 4,066 hotels were classified as comparable hotels. The 868
non-comparable hotels included 227 properties, or approximately five percent of the total hotels in the system, that were removed
from the comparable group during the last twelve months because they sustained substantial property damage, business interruption,
underwent large-scale capital projects or comparable results were not available.
Occupancy
Occupancy represents the total number of room nights sold divided by the total number of room nights available at a hotel or
group of hotels. Occupancy measures the utilization of the hotels' available capacity. Management uses occupancy to gauge demand at
a specific hotel or group of hotels in a given period. Occupancy levels also help management determine achievable Average Daily
Rate levels as demand for hotel rooms increases or decreases.
Average Daily Rate ("ADR")
ADR represents hotel room revenue divided by total number of room nights sold in a given period. ADR measures average room price
attained by a hotel, and ADR trends provide useful information concerning the pricing environment and the nature of the customer
base of a hotel or group of hotels. ADR is a commonly used performance measure in the industry, and management uses ADR to assess
pricing levels that the Company is able to generate by type of customer, as changes in rates have a different effect on overall
revenues and incremental profitability than changes in occupancy, as described above.
Revenue per Available Room ("RevPAR")
The Company calculates RevPAR by dividing hotel room revenue by total number of room nights available to guests for a given
period. Management considers RevPAR to be a meaningful indicator of the Company's performance as it provides a metric correlated to
two primary and key drivers of operations at a hotel or group of hotels: occupancy and ADR. RevPAR is also a useful indicator in
measuring performance over comparable periods for comparable hotels.
References to RevPAR, ADR and occupancy throughout this press release are presented on a comparable basis and references to
RevPAR and ADR are presented on a currency neutral basis (all periods use the actual exchange rates for the three months ended
March 31, 2017), unless otherwise noted.
