By GlobalDataLuxUrban Hotels co-CEO and chairman Brian Ferdinand said: “We delivered a very strong Q3, highlighted by significant increases in net rental revenue and EBITDA, our first-ever quarter of GAAP net income and an expanded hotel property portfolio.
“Our collaboration with Wyndham Hotels & Resorts has placed us on an accelerated glide path for growth by allowing us to target and acquire the operating rights to a wider variety of hotels, including larger properties and generating efficiencies that enhance profitability.”
For the year ending 31 December 2023, the company expects its net rental revenue to be in the range of $120m to $125m and its EBITDA to be between $27m and $32m.
Additionally, the total hotel rooms under long-term master lease agreements (MLA) are expected to be in the range of 2,500 to 3,000 units.
Ferdinand further added: “We have successfully onboarded the 17 initial properties under the Wyndham agreement and are in the process of integrating additional hotels to the Wyndham brand family and operating platform. We ended the quarter with 1,466 units available for rent.”
