Organization and Description of Business
Ashford Hospitality Trust, Inc., together with its subsidiaries (“Ashford Trust”), is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) focused on investing opportunistically in the hospitality industry with a focus predominantly on full-service upscale and upper upscale hotels in the U.S. that have revenue per available room (“RevPAR”) generally less than twice the U.S. national average, and in all methods including direct real estate, equity, and debt. Future investments will predominantly be in upper upscale hotels. We own our lodging investments and conduct our business through Ashford Hospitality Limited Partnership (“Ashford Trust OP”), our operating partnership. Ashford OP General Partner LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ashford Trust, serves as the sole general partner of our operating partnership. In this report, terms such as the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” refer to Ashford Hospitality Trust, Inc. and all entities included in its consolidated financial statements.
Our hotel properties are primarily branded under the widely recognized upscale and upper upscale brands of Hilton, Hyatt, Marriott, and Intercontinental Hotel Group. As of
June 30, 2019
, we owned interests in the following assets:
•
121
consolidated hotel properties, including
119
directly owned and
two
owned through a majority-owned investment in a consolidated entity, which represent
25,579
total rooms (or
25,552
net rooms excluding those attributable to our partner);
•
92
hotel condominium units at WorldQuest Resort in Orlando, Florida (“WorldQuest”);
•
a
24.2
%
ownership in Ashford Inc. common stock with a carrying value of
$
182,000
and a fair value of
$
19.0
million
; and
•
a
16.6
%
ownership in OpenKey with a carrying value of
$
2.7
million
.
For federal income tax purposes, we have elected to be treated as a REIT, which imposes limitations related to operating hotels. As of
June 30, 2019
, our
121
hotel properties were leased or owned by our wholly-owned or majority-owned subsidiaries that are treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries for federal income tax purposes (collectively, these subsidiaries are referred to as “Ashford TRS”). Ashford TRS then engages third-party or affiliated hotel management companies to operate the hotels under management contracts. Hotel operating results related to these properties are included in the consolidated statements of operations.
We are advised by Ashford Hospitality Advisors LLC (“Ashford LLC”), a subsidiary of Ashford Inc., through an advisory agreement. All of the hotel properties in our portfolio are currently asset-managed by Ashford LLC. We do not have any employees. All of the services that might be provided by employees are provided to us by Ashford LLC.
We do not operate any of our hotel properties directly; instead we employ hotel management companies to operate them for us under management contracts. As of
June 30, 2019
, Remington Lodging & Hospitality, LLC, together with its affiliates (“Remington Lodging”), which is beneficially wholly owned by Mr. Monty J. Bennett, our Chairman, and his father Mr. Archie Bennett, Jr., our Chairman Emeritus, managed
83
of our
121
hotel properties and WorldQuest Resort. Third-party management companies managed the remaining hotel properties. On May 31, 2019, Ashford Inc., the parent company of Ashford LLC, entered into an agreement to acquire the hotel management business of Remington Holdings, L.P. (as amended by the First Amendment thereto dated July 17, 2019, the “Combination Agreement”).
Ashford Inc. also provides other products and services to us or our hotel properties through certain entities in which Ashford Inc. has an ownership interest. These products and services include, but are not limited to project management services, debt placement services, audio visual services, real estate advisory services, insurance claims services, hypoallergenic premium rooms, investment management services and mobile key technology.

Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
—The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ashford Hospitality Trust, Inc., its majority-owned subsidiaries, and its majority-owned joint ventures in which it has a controlling interest. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions between consolidated entities have been eliminated in these consolidated financial statements. We have condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements. We believe the disclosures made herein are adequate to prevent the information presented from being misleading. However, the financial statements should
11
Table of Contents
ASHFORD HOSPITALITY TRUST, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(unaudited)
be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our
2018
Annual Report to Stockholders on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 1, 2019.
Ashford Trust OP is considered to be a variable interest entity (“VIE”), as defined by authoritative accounting guidance. A VIE must be consolidated by a reporting entity if the reporting entity is the primary beneficiary because it has (i) the power to direct the VIE’s activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE. All major decisions related to Ashford Trust OP that most significantly impact its economic performance, including but not limited to operating procedures with respect to business affairs and any acquisitions, dispositions, financings, restructurings or other transactions with sellers, purchasers, lenders, brokers, agents and other applicable representatives, are subject to the approval of our wholly-owned subsidiary, Ashford Trust OP General Partner LLC, its general partner. As such, we consolidate Ashford Trust OP.
Historical seasonality patterns at some of our hotel properties cause fluctuations in our overall operating results. Consequently, operating results for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
December 31, 2019
.

Use of Estimates
—The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Restricted Cash
—Restricted cash includes reserves for debt service, real estate taxes, and insurance, as well as excess cash flow deposits and reserves for furniture, fixtures, and equipment replacements of approximately
4
%
to
6
%
of property revenue for certain hotels, as required by certain management or mortgage debt agreement restrictions and provisions.
Impairment of Investments in Hotel Properties
—Hotel properties are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Recoverability of the hotel is measured by comparison of the carrying amount of the hotel to the estimated future undiscounted cash flows, which take into account current market conditions and our intent with respect to holding or disposing of the hotel. If our analysis indicates that the carrying value of the hotel is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, we recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the property’s net book value exceeds its estimated fair value, or fair value, less cost to sell. In evaluating impairment of hotel properties, we make many assumptions and estimates, including projected cash flows, expected holding period, and expected useful life. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques, including internally developed discounted cash flow models, comparable market transactions and third-party appraisals, where considered necessary. Asset write-downs resulting from property damage are recorded up to the amount of the allocable property insurance deductible in the period that the property damage occurs. See note
6
.
Investments in Unconsolidated Entities
—Investments in entities in which we have ownership interests ranging from
16.6
%
to
24.2
%
, at
June 30, 2019
, are accounted for under the equity method of accounting by recording the initial investment and our percentage of interest in the entities’ net income/loss. We review the investments in our unconsolidated entities for impairment in each reporting period pursuant to the applicable authoritative accounting guidance. An investment is impaired when its estimated fair value is less than the carrying amount of our investment. Any impairment is recorded in equity in earnings (loss) of unconsolidated entities.
No
such impairment was recorded for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
and
2018
.
Our investments in certain unconsolidated entities are considered to be variable interests in the underlying entities. Each VIE, as defined by authoritative accounting guidance, must be consolidated by a reporting entity if the reporting entity is the primary
12

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(unaudited)
beneficiary because it has (i) the power to direct the VIE’s activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance, and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE. Because we do not have the power and financial responsibility to direct the unconsolidated entities’ activities and operations, we are not considered to be the primary beneficiary of these entities on an ongoing basis and therefore such entities should not be consolidated. In evaluating VIEs, our analysis involves considerable management judgment and assumptions.
Leases
—We determine if an arrangement is a lease at the commencement date. Operating leases, as lessee, are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and operating lease liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. We currently do not have any finance leases.
Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and initial direct costs incurred and excludes lease incentives. The lease terms used to calculate our right-of-use asset may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
We have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which under the elected practical expedients under ASC 842, we are not accounting for separately. For certain equipment leases, such as office equipment, we account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component.
Equity-Based Compensation
—Prior to the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-07,
Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting
(“ASU 2018-07”) in the third quarter of 2018, stock/unit-based compensation for non-employees was accounted for at fair value based on the market price of the shares at period end that resulted in recording expense, included in “advisory services fee” and “management fees,” equal to the fair value of the award in proportion to the requisite service period satisfied during the period. Performance stock units (“PSUs”) and Performance Long-Term Incentive Plan (“Performance LTIP”) units granted to certain executive officers were accounted for at fair value at period end based on a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model that resulted in recording expense, included in “advisory services fee,” equal to the fair value of the award in proportion to the requisite service period satisfied during the period. Stock/unit grants to certain independent directors are recorded at fair value based on the market price of the shares at grant date, which amount is fully expensed as the grants of stock/units are fully vested on the date of grant.
After the adoption of ASU 2018-07 in the third quarter of 2018, stock/unit-based compensation for non-employees is measured at the grant date and expensed ratably over the vesting period based on the original measurement as of the grant date. This results in the recording of expense, included in “advisory services fee,” “management fees” and “corporate, general and administrative” expense, equal to the ratable amount of the grant date fair value based on the requisite service period satisfied during the period. PSUs and Performance LTIP units granted to certain executive officers vest based on market conditions and are measured at the grant date fair value based on a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model. The subsequent expense is then ratably recognized over the service period as the service is rendered regardless of when, if ever, the market conditions are satisfied. This results in recording expense, included in “advisory services fee,” equal to the ratable amount of the grant date fair value based on the requisite service period satisfied during the period. Stock/unit grants to certain independent directors are measured at the grant date based on the market price of the shares at grant date, which amount is fully expensed as the grants of stock/units are fully vested on the date of grant.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
—In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-02,
Leases
(“ASU 2016-02”). The new standard establishes a ROU model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Under the new standard, leases are classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-10,
Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases
("ASU 2018-10") and ASU 2018-11,
Leases
(Topic 842),
Targeted Improvements
(“ASU 2018-11”). The amendments in ASU 2018-10 affect only narrow aspects of the guidance issued in the amendments in ASU 2016-02, including but not limited to lease residual value guarantee, rate implicit in the lease, lease term and purchase option. The amendments in ASU 2018-11 provide an optional transition method for adoption of the new standard, which allows entities to continue to apply the legacy guidance in ASC 840, including its disclosure requirements, in the comparative periods presented in the year of adoption. In December 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-20,
Leases
(Topic 842),
Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors
(“ASU 2018-20”). The amendments create a lessor practical expedient applicable to sales and other similar taxes incurred in connection with a lease, and simplify lessor accounting for lessor costs paid by the lessee.

ASHFORD HOSPITALITY TRUST, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(unaudited)
We adopted the standard effective January 1, 2019 on a modified retrospective basis and implemented internal controls to enable the preparation of financial information on adoption. We elected the practical expedients which provide us the option to apply the new guidance at its effective date on January 1, 2019 without having to adjust the comparative prior period financial statements. The package of practical expedients also allowed us to carry forward the historical lease classification. Additionally, we elected the practical expedients allowing us not to separate lease and non-lease components and not record leases with an initial term of twelve months or less (“short-term leases”) on the balance sheet across all existing asset classes.
The adoption of this standard has resulted in the recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities primarily related to our ground lease arrangements for which we are the lessee. As of January 1, 2019, we recorded operating lease liabilities of
$
43.3
million
as well as a corresponding operating lease ROU asset of
$
38.8
million
, which includes, among other things, reclassified intangible assets of
$
9.0
million
, intangible liabilities of
$
13.0
million
and deferred rent of
$
485,000
. The standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated statements of operations and statements of cash flows. See related disclosures in note

.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
—In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13,
Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments
(“ASU 2016-13”). The ASU sets forth an “expected credit loss” impairment model to replace the current “incurred loss” method of recognizing credit losses. The standard requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for most financial assets held. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for periods beginning after December 15, 2018. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-19,
Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses
(“ASU 2018-19”). ASU 2018-19 clarifies that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of Subtopic 326-20. Instead, impairment of receivables arising from operating leases should be accounted for in accordance with Topic 842,
Leases
. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2016-13 will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Revenue
Rooms revenue represents revenue from the occupancy of our hotel rooms and is driven by the occupancy and average daily rate charged. Rooms revenue includes revenue for guest no-shows, day use, and early/late departure fees. The contracts for room stays with customers are generally short in duration and revenues are recognized as services are provided over the course of the hotel stay.
Food & Beverage (“F&B”) revenue consists of revenue from the restaurants and lounges at our hotel properties, in-room dining and mini-bars revenue, and banquet/catering revenue from group and social functions. Other F&B revenue may include revenue from audio-visual equipment/services, rental of function rooms, and other F&B related revenue. Revenue is recognized as the services or products are provided. Our hotel properties may employ third parties to provide certain services at the property, for example, audio visual services. We evaluate each of these contracts to determine if the hotel is the principal or the agent in the transaction, and record the revenue as appropriate (i.e. gross vs. net).
Other hotel revenue consists of ancillary revenue at the property, including attrition and cancellation fees, resort and destination fees, spas, parking, entertainment and other guest services, as well as rental revenue; primarily consisting of leased retail outlets at our hotel properties. Attrition and cancellation fees are recognized from non-cancellable deposits when the customer provides notification of cancellation within established management policy time frames. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, we recorded
$
1.9
million
and
$
2.5

Leases
On January 1, 2019, we adopted ASC 842 on a modified retrospective basis. We elected the practical expedients which allowed us to apply the new guidance at its effective date on January 1, 2019 without adjusting the comparative prior period financial statements. The package of practical expedients also allowed us to carry forward the historical lease classification. Additionally, we elected the practical expedients allowing us not to separate lease and non-lease components and not record leases with an initial term of twelve months or less (“short-term leases”) on the balance sheet across all existing asset classes.
The adoption of this standard has resulted in the recognition of operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities primarily related to our ground lease arrangements for which we are the lessee. As of January 1, 2019, we recorded operating lease liabilities of
$
43.3
million
as well as a corresponding operating lease ROU asset of
$
38.8
million
which includes the reclassified intangible assets of
$
9.0
million
, intangible liabilities of
$
13.0
million
and deferred rent of
$
485,000
. The standard did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated statements of operations and statements of cash flows.
The majority of our leases are operating ground leases. We also have operating equipment leases, such as copier and vehicle leases, at our hotel properties. Some leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term from
one year
to
99
years. The exercise of lease renewal options is at our sole discretion. Some leases have variable payments, however, if variable payments are contingent, they are not included in the ROU assets and liabilities. We have no finance leases as of
June 30, 2019
.

The assets of certain of our subsidiaries are pledged under non-recourse indebtedness and are not available to satisfy the debts and other obligations of Ashford Trust or Ashford Trust OP, our operating partnership, and the liabilities of such subsidiaries do not constitute the obligations of Ashford Trust or Ashford Trust OP. As of
June 30, 2019
, we were in compliance in all material respects with all covenants or other requirements set forth in our debt and related agreements as amended.

Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic income (loss) per common share is calculated using the two-class method by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income (loss) per common share is calculated using the two-class method, or treasury stock method if more dilutive, and reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common shares were exercised or converted into common shares, whereby such exercise or conversion would result in lower income per share.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Interest Rate Derivatives
—We are exposed to risks arising from our business operations, economic conditions and financial markets. To manage these risks, we primarily use interest rate derivatives to hedge our debt and our cash flows. The interest rate derivatives currently include interest rate caps and interest rate floors. These derivatives are subject to master netting settlement arrangements. To mitigate the nonperformance risk, we routinely use a third party’s analysis of the creditworthiness of the counterparties, which supports our belief that the counterparties’ nonperformance risk is limited. All derivatives are recorded at fair value.

Cash collateral is posted by us as well as our counterparties. We offset the fair value of the derivative and the obligation/right to return/reclaim cash collateral.
Credit Default Swap Derivatives
—We use credit default swaps, tied to the CMBX index, to hedge financial and capital market risk. A credit default swap is a derivative contract that functions like an insurance policy against the credit risk of an entity or obligation. The seller of protection assumes the credit risk of the reference obligation from the buyer (us) of protection in exchange for annual premium payments. If a default or a loss, as defined in the credit default swap agreements, occurs on the underlying bonds, then the buyer of protection is protected against those losses. The only liability for us, the buyer, is the annual premium and any change in value of the underlying CMBX index (if the trade is terminated prior to maturity). For all CMBX trades completed to date, we were the buyer of protection. Credit default swaps are subject to master-netting settlement arrangements and credit support annexes. As of
June 30, 2019
, we held credit default swaps with notional amounts totaling
$
212.5
million
. These credit default swaps had effective dates from
February 2015
to
August 2017
and expected maturity dates from
October 2023
to
October 2026
. Assuming the underlying bonds pay off at par over their remaining average life, our total exposure for these trades was approximately
$
4.3
million
as of
June 30, 2019
.
Cash collateral is posted by us as well as our counterparties. We offset the fair value of the derivative and the obligation/right to return/reclaim cash collateral. The change in market value of credit default swaps

Fair Value Measurements
Fair Value Hierarchy
—For disclosure purposes, financial instruments, whether measured at fair value on a recurring or nonrecurring basis or not measured at fair value, are classified in a hierarchy consisting of three levels based on the observability of valuation inputs in the market place as discussed below:
•
Level 1: Fair value measurements that are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that we have the ability to access for identical assets or liabilities. Market price data generally is obtained from exchange or dealer markets.
•
Level 2: Fair value measurements based on inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.
•
Level 3: Fair value measurements based on valuation techniques that use significant inputs that are unobservable. The circumstances for using these measurements include those in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability.
Fair values of interest rate swaps are determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts/payments and the discounted expected variable cash payments/receipts. Fair values of interest rate caps, floors, flooridors and corridors are determined using the market standard methodology of discounting the future expected cash receipts that would occur if variable interest rates fell below the strike rates of the floors or rise above the strike rates of the caps. Variable interest rates used in the calculation of projected receipts and payments on the swaps, caps, and floors are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves (LIBOR forward curves) and volatilities (Level 2 inputs). We also incorporate credit valuation adjustments (Level 3 inputs) to appropriately reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk.
Fair values of credit default swaps are obtained from a third party who publishes various information including the index composition and price data (Level 2 inputs). The fair value of credit default swaps does not contain credit-risk-related adjustments as the change in fair value is settled net through posting cash collateral or reclaiming cash collateral between us and our counterparty.
Fair values of interest rate floors are calculated using a third-party discounted cash flow model based on future cash flows that are expected to be received over the remaining life of the floor. These expected future cash flows are probability-weighted projections based on the contract terms, accounting for both the magnitude and likelihood of potential payments, which are both computed using the appropriate LIBOR forward curve and market implied volatilities as of the valuation date (Level 2 inputs).
Fair value of options on futures contracts is determined based on the last reported settlement price as of the measurement date (Level 1 inputs). These exchange-traded options are centrally cleared, and a clearinghouse stands in between all trades to ensure that the obligations involved in the trades are satisfied.
Fair values of marketable securities and liabilities associated with marketable securities, including public equity securities, equity put and call options, and other investments, are based on their quoted market closing prices (Level 1 inputs).
When a majority of the inputs used to value our derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. However, when valuation adjustments associated with our derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by us and our counterparties, which we consider significant (
10
%
or more) to the overall valuation of our derivatives, the derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Transfers of inputs between levels are determined at the end of each reporting period. In determining the fair values of our derivatives at
June 30, 2019
, the LIBOR interest rate forward curve (Level 2 inputs) assumed a downtrend from
2.398
%
to
1.440
%
for the remaining term of our derivatives. Credit spreads (Level 3 inputs) used in determining the fair values of hedge and non-hedge designated derivatives assumed an uptrend in nonperformance risk for us and all of our counterparties through the maturity dates.

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash
. These financial assets bear interest at market rates and have original maturities of less than
90
days. The carrying value approximates fair value due to their short-term nature. This is considered a Level 1 valuation technique.
Accounts receivable, net, accounts payable and accrued expenses, dividends and distributions payable, due to/from related party, net, due to Ashford Inc., net and due to/from third-party hotel managers.
The carrying values of these financial instruments approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. This is considered a Level 1 valuation technique.
Marketable securities.
Marketable securities consist of U.S. treasury bills, publicly traded equity securities, and put and call options on certain publicly traded equity securities. The fair value of these investments is based on quoted market closing prices at the balance sheet date. See note
11
for a complete description of the methodology and assumptions utilized in determining the fair values.
Derivative assets, net and derivative liabilities, net.
Fair value of interest rate caps is determined using the net present value of expected cash flows of each derivative based on the market-based interest rate curve and adjusted for credit spreads of us and our counterparties. Fair values of credit default swap derivatives are obtained from a third party who publishes the CMBX index composition and price data. Fair values of interest rate floors are calculated using a third-party discounted cash flow model based on future cash flows that are expected to be received over the remaining life of the floor. Fair values of options on futures contracts are valued at their last reported settlement price as of the measurement date. See notes
10
and
11
for a complete description of the methodology and assumptions utilized in determining fair values.
Indebtedness.
Fair value of indebtedness is determined using future cash flows discounted at current replacement rates for these instruments. Cash flows are determined using a forward interest rate yield curve. Current replacement rates are determined by using the U.S. Treasury yield curve or the index to which these financial instruments are tied and adjusted for credit spreads.

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests in Operating Partnership
Redeemable noncontrolling interests in the operating partnership represents the limited partners’ proportionate share of equity in earnings/losses of the operating partnership, which is an allocation of net income/loss attributable to the common unit holders based on the weighted average ownership percentage of these limited partners’ common units of limited partnership interest in the operating partnership (the “common units”) and the units issued under our Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “LTIP units”) that are vested. Each common unit may be redeemed for either cash or, at our sole discretion, up to
one
share of our REIT common stock, which is either: (i) issued pursuant to an effective registration statement, (ii) included in an effective registration statement providing for the resale of such common stock; or (iii) issued subject to a registration rights agreement.
LTIP units, which are issued to certain executives and employees of Ashford LLC as compensation, have vesting periods ranging from
three years
to
five years
. Additionally, certain independent members of the board of directors have elected to receive LTIP units as part of their compensation, which are fully vested upon grant. Upon reaching economic parity with common units, each vested LTIP unit can be converted by the holder into
one
common unit which can then be redeemed for cash or, at our election, settled in our common stock. An LTIP unit will achieve parity with the common units upon the sale or deemed sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the operating partnership at a time when our stock is trading at a level in excess of the price it was trading on the date of the LTIP issuance. More specifically, LTIP units will achieve full economic parity with common units in connection with (i) the actual sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the operating partnership or (ii) the hypothetical sale of such assets, which results from a capital account revaluation, as defined in the partnership agreement, for the operating partnership.
The compensation committee of the board of directors of the Company approves the issuance of Performance LTIP units to certain executive officers and directors from time to time. The award agreements provide for the grant of a target number of Performance LTIP units that will be settled in common units of Ashford Trust OP, if and when the applicable vesting criteria have been achieved following the end of the performance and service period. The number of Performance LTIP units actually earned may range from
0
%
to
200
%
of target based on achievement of specified absolute and relative total stockholder returns based on the formulas determined by the Company’s compensation committee on the grant date. As of
June 30, 2019
, there were approximately
1.9
million
Performance LTIP units, representing
200
%
of the target number granted, outstanding. The performance criteria for the performance LTIP units are based on market conditions under the relevant literature, and the performance LTIP units were granted to non-employees. Upon the adoption of ASU 2018-07, the corresponding compensation cost is recognized ratably over the service period for the award as the service is rendered, based on the grant date fair value of the award, regardless of the actual outcome of the market condition as opposed to being accounted for at fair value based on the market price of the shares at each quarterly measurement date.
As of
June 30, 2019
, we have issued a total of
11.9
million
LTIP and Performance LTIP units, net of Performance LTIP cancellations. All LTIP and Performance LTIP units other than approximately
769,000
units (
none
of which are Performance LTIP units) have reached full economic parity with, and are convertible into, common units upon vesting.

Commitments and Contingencies
Restricted Cash
—Under certain management and debt agreements for our hotel properties existing at
June 30, 2019
, escrow payments are required for insurance, real estate taxes, and debt service. In addition, for certain properties based on the terms of the underlying debt and management agreements, we escrow
4
%
to
6
%
of gross revenues for capital improvements.
Franchise Fees
—Under franchise agreements for our hotel properties existing at
June 30, 2019
, we pay franchisor royalty fees between
3
%
and
6
%
of gross rooms revenue and, in some cases,
2
%
to
3
%
of food and beverage revenues. Additionally, we pay fees for marketing, reservations, and other related activities aggregating between
1
%
and
4
%
of gross rooms revenue and, in some cases, food and beverage revenues. These franchise agreements expire on varying dates between
2020
and
2047
. When a franchise term expires, the franchisor has no obligation to renew the franchise. A franchise termination could have a material adverse effect on the operations or the underlying value of the affected hotel due to loss of associated name recognition, marketing support, and centralized reservation systems provided by the franchisor. A franchise termination could also have a material adverse effect on cash available for distribution to stockholders. In addition, if we breach the franchise agreement and the franchisor terminates a franchise prior to its expiration date, we may be liable for up to three times the average annual fees incurred for that property.

Management Fees
—Under property management agreements for our hotel properties existing at
June 30, 2019
, we pay monthly property management fee equal to the greater of approximately
$
14,000
(increased annually based on consumer price index adjustments) or
3
%
of gross revenues, or in some cases
1
%
to
7
%
of gross revenues, as well as annual incentive management fees, if applicable. These property management agreements expire from
2020
through
2039
, with renewal options. If we terminate a property management agreement prior to its expiration, we may be liable for estimated management fees through the remaining term and liquidated damages or, in certain circumstances, we may substitute a new management agreement.
Income Taxes
— We and our subsidiaries file income tax returns in the federal jurisdiction and various states. Tax years 2015 through 2018 remain subject to potential examination by certain federal and state taxing authorities.
Potential Pension Liabilities
—Upon our 2006 acquisition of a hotel property, certain employees of such hotel were unionized and covered by a multi-employer defined benefit pension plan. At that time,
no
unfunded pension liabilities existed. Subsequent to our acquisition, a majority of employees, who are employees of the hotel manager, Remington Lodging, petitioned the employer to withdraw recognition of the union. As a result of the decertification petition, Remington Lodging withdrew recognition of the union. At the time of the withdrawal, the National Retirement Fund, the union’s pension fund, indicated unfunded pension liabilities existed. The National Labor Relations Board (“NLRB”) filed a complaint against Remington Lodging seeking, among other things, a ruling that Remington Lodging’s withdrawal of recognition was unlawful. The pension fund entered into a settlement agreement with Remington Lodging on November 1, 2011, providing that Remington Lodging will continue to make monthly pension fund payments pursuant to the collective bargaining agreement. As of
June 30, 2019
, Remington Lodging continues to comply with the settlement agreement by making the appropriate monthly pension fund payments. If Remington Lodging does not comply with the settlement agreement, we have agreed to indemnify Remington Lodging for the payment of the unfunded pension liability, if any, as set forth in the settlement agreement equal to
$
1.7
million
minus the monthly pension payments made by Remington Lodging since the settlement agreement. To illustrate, if Remington Lodging - as of the date a final determination occurs - has made monthly pension payments equaling
$
100,000
, Remington Lodging’s remaining withdrawal liability would be the unfunded pension liability of
$
1.7
million
minus
$
100,000
(or
$
1.6
million
). This remaining unfunded pension liability would be paid to the pension fund in annual installments of
$
84,000
(but may be made monthly or quarterly, at Remington Lodging’s election), which
38

shall continue for the remainder of
twenty years
, which is capped, unless Remington Lodging elects to pay the unfunded pension liability amount earlier.
Litigation
—
Palm Beach Florida Hotel and Office Building Limited Partnership, et al. v. Nantucket Enterprises, Inc.
This litigation involves a landlord tenant dispute from 2008 in which the landlord, Palm Beach Florida Hotel and Office Building Limited Partnership, a subsidiary of the Company, claimed that the tenant had violated various lease provisions of the lease agreement and was therefore in default. The tenant counterclaimed and asserted multiple claims including that it had been wrongfully evicted. The litigation was instituted by the plaintiff in November 2008 in the Circuit Court of the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit, in and for Palm Beach County, Florida and proceeded to a jury trial on June 30, 2014. The jury entered its verdict awarding the tenant total claims of
$
10.8
million
and ruling against the landlord on its claim of breach of contract. In 2016, the Court of Appeals reduced the original
$
10.8
million
judgment to
$
8.8
million
and added pre-judgment interest on the wrongful eviction judgment. The case was further appealed to the Florida Supreme Court. On May 23, 2017, the trial court issued an order compelling the company that issued the supersedeas bond, RLI Insurance Company (“RLI”), to pay approximately
$
10.0
million
. On June 1, 2017, RLI paid Nantucket this amount and sought reimbursement from the Company, and on June 7, 2017, the Company paid
$
2.5
million
of the judgement. On June 27, 2017, the Florida Supreme Court denied the Company’s petition for review. As a result, all of the appeals were exhausted and the judgment was final with the determination and reimbursement of attorney’s fees being the only remaining dispute. On June 29, 2017, the balance of the judgment of
$
3.9
million
was paid to Nantucket by the Company. On July 26, 2018, we paid
$
544,000
as part of a settlement on certain legal fees. The negotiations relating to the potential payment of the remaining attorney’s fees are still ongoing. As of
June 30, 2019
, we have accrued approximately
$
504,000
in legal fees, which represents the Company’s estimate of the amount of potential remaining legal fees that could be owed.
We are engaged in other various legal proceedings which have arisen but have not been fully adjudicated. The likelihood of loss from these legal proceedings, based on definitions within contingency accounting literature, ranges from remote to reasonably possible and to probable. Based on estimates of the range of potential losses associated with these matters, management does not believe the ultimate resolution of these proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations. However, the final results of legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty and if we fail to prevail in one or more of these legal matters, and the associated realized losses exceed our current estimates of the range of potential losses, our consolidated financial position or results of operations could be materially adversely affected in future periods.

Segment Reporting
We operate in
one
business segment within the hotel lodging industry: direct hotel investments. Direct hotel investments refers to owning hotel properties through either acquisition or new development. We report operating results of direct hotel investments on an aggregate basis as substantially all of our hotel investments have similar economic characteristics. As of
June 30, 2019
and
December 31, 2018
, all of our hotel properties were domestically located.

Total market capitalization includes the aggregate principal amount of our consolidated indebtedness (including our proportionate share of debt of any entity that is not consolidated but excluding our joint venture partners’ proportionate share of consolidated debt). The range of base fees on the scale is between
0.70
%
and

Includes balances associated with liabilities associated with assets held for sale as of June 30, 2019.
In
2016,
$
4.0
million
of key money consideration was invested in furniture, fixtures and equipment by Ashford LLC to be used by Ashford Trust, which represented all of the key money consideration for the Le Pavillon Hotel. Upon adoption of ASC 842, we evaluated this arrangement, which is accounted for as a lease that will expire in 2021. Under the applicable accounting guidance in ASC 842, as the related party lease is provided rent-free, there is no economic substance related to the lease which results in not recording an operating lease right-of-use asset, an operating lease liability or lease expense.

ASHFORD HOSPITALITY TRUST, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(unaudited)
Enhanced Return Funding Program
On June 26, 2018, Ashford Trust entered into the Enhanced Return Funding Program Agreement and Amendment No. 1 to the Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement (the “ERFP Agreement”) with Ashford Inc. The Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement was also amended to name Ashford Inc. and its subsidiaries as the Company’s sole and exclusive provider of asset management, project management and other services offered by Ashford Inc. or any of its subsidiaries and to revise the payment terms such that the base fee and reimbursable expenses will be paid monthly. The independent members of the board of directors of each of Ashford Inc. and Ashford Trust, with the assistance of separate and independent legal counsel, engaged to negotiate the ERFP Agreement on behalf of Ashford Inc. and Ashford Trust, respectively.
The ERFP Agreement generally provides that Ashford LLC will make investments to facilitate the acquisition of properties by Ashford Trust OP that are recommended by Ashford LLC, in an aggregate amount of up to
$
50
million
(subject to increase to up to
$
100
million
by mutual agreement). The investments will equal
10
%
of the property acquisition price and will be made, either at the time of the property acquisition or at any time generally in the following two years, in exchange for furniture, fixture and equipment for use at the acquired property or any other property owned by Ashford Trust OP.
The initial term of the ERFP Agreement is
two years
(the “Initial Term”), unless earlier terminated pursuant to the terms of the ERFP Agreement. At the end of the Initial Term, the ERFP Agreement shall automatically renew for successive
one year
periods (each such period a “Renewal Term”) unless either Ashford Inc. or Ashford Trust provides written notice to the other at least
sixty days
in advance of the expiration of the Initial Term or Renewal Term, as applicable, that such notifying party intends not to renew the ERFP Agreement.
As a result of the Hilton Alexandria Old Town and La Posada de Santa Fe acquisitions in 2018, under the ERFP Agreement we were entitled to receive
$
11.1
million
and
$
5.0
million
from Ashford LLC, respectively, in the form of future purchases of hotel furniture, fixtures, and equipment. As of December 31, 2018, the Company sold
$
16.1
million
of hotel furniture, fixtures, and equipment from certain Ashford Trust hotel properties to Ashford LLC which were subsequently leased back to the Company rent free. Under the applicable accounting guidance in ASC 842, as the related party lease is provided rent free, the lease has no economic substance. As a result, the Company has not recorded an operating lease right-of-use asset, an operating lease liability or lease expense for rents. As of December 31, 2018, Ashford LLC remitted payment of
$
16.1
million
to the Company. Under the relevant accounting guidance related to sales-leaseback transactions, the transaction was not accounted for as a sale under Topic 606. As a result the applicable hotel furniture, fixtures, and equipment were not derecognized at December 31, 2018 and the Company recorded a
$
16.1
million
liability to Ashford LLC. Upon adoption of Topic 842 on January 1, 2019, the Company reevaluated the transaction under the applicable accounting guidance and concluded that the transaction qualified as a sale. As a result, the Company recorded a
$
1.8
million
gain directly to accumulated deficit and, in conjunction with the sale, derecognized the assets and removed the liability to Ashford LLC.
As a result of the Hilton Santa Cruz/Scotts Valley and Embassy Suites New York Manhattan Times Square acquisitions in 2019, under the ERFP Agreement we are entitled to receive
$
5.0
million
and
$
19.5
million
from Ashford LLC, respectively, in the form of future purchases of hotel furniture, fixtures, and equipment. As of June 30, 2019, the Company sold
$
5.0
million
and
$
8.1
million
, respectively, of hotel furniture, fixtures, and equipment from certain Ashford Trust hotel properties to Ashford LLC which were subsequently leased back to the Company rent free. In accordance with ASC 842, the Company evaluated the transactions and concluded that the transactions qualified as a sale. As a result, the Company recorded a gain of
$
233,000
and
$
326,000
, respectively, for the
three
and
six months ended June 30, 2019
in conjunction with the sale and derecognized the assets. Additionally, under the applicable accounting guidance in ASC 842, the Company has not recorded an operating lease right-of-use asset, an operating lease liability or lease expense for rents as the related party lease has no economic substance because the related party lease is provided rent free. As of June 30, 2019, Ashford LLC has remitted payments of
$
5.0
million
and
$
8.1
million
to the Company.
Project Management Agreement
In connection with Ashford Inc.’s August 8, 2018 acquisition of Remington Lodging’s project management business, we entered into a project management agreement with Ashford Inc.’s indirect subsidiary, Premier, pursuant to which Premier provides project management services to our hotels, including construction management, interior design, architectural services, and the purchasing, freight management, and supervision of installation of FF&E and related services. Pursuant to the project management agreement, we pay Premier: (a) project management fees of up to
4
%
of project costs; and (b) market service fees at current market rates with respect to construction management, interior design, FF&E purchasing, FF&E expediting/freight management, FF&E warehousing and FF&E installation and supervision.

Overview
Based on our primary business objectives and forecasted operating conditions, our current key priorities and financial strategies include, among other things:
•
acquisition of hotel properties to be accretive to our portfolio;
•
disposition of non-core hotel properties;
•
pursuing capital market activities to enhance long-term stockholder value;
•
preserving capital, enhancing liquidity, and continuing current cost-saving measures;
•
implementing selective capital improvements designed to increase profitability;
•
implementing effective asset management strategies to minimize operating costs and increase revenues;
•
financing or refinancing hotels on competitive terms;
•
utilizing hedges and derivatives to mitigate risks; and
•
making other investments or divestitures that our board of directors deems appropriate.
Our current investment strategy is to focus on owning predominantly full-service hotels in the upscale and upper upscale segments in domestic and international markets that have revenue per available room (“RevPAR”) generally less than twice the U.S. national average. We believe that as supply, demand, and capital market cycles change, we will be able to shift our investment strategy to take advantage of new lodging-related investment opportunities as they may develop. Our board of directors may change our investment strategy at any time without stockholder approval or notice. We will continue to seek ways to benefit from the cyclical nature of the hotel industry.
We are advised by Ashford Hospitality Advisors LLC (“Ashford LLC”), a subsidiary of Ashford Inc., through an advisory agreement. All of the hotel properties in our portfolio are currently asset-managed by Ashford LLC. We do not have any employees. All of the services that might be provided by employees are provided to us by Ashford LLC.
We do not operate any of our hotel properties directly; instead we employ hotel management companies to operate them for us under management contracts. As of
June 30, 2019
, Remington Lodging & Hospitality, LLC, together with its affiliates (“Remington Lodging”), which is beneficially wholly owned by Mr. Monty J. Bennett, our Chairman, and his father Mr. Archie Bennett, Jr., our Chairman Emeritus, managed
83
of our
121
hotel properties and WorldQuest Resort. Third-party management companies managed the remaining hotel properties.
Ashford Inc. also provides other products and services to us or our hotel properties through certain entities in which Ashford Inc. has an ownership interest. These products and services include, but are not limited to project management services, debt placement services, audio visual services, real estate advisory services, insurance claims services, hypoallergenic premium rooms, investment management services and mobile key technology. Mr. Monty J. Bennett is chairman and chief executive officer of Ashford Inc. and, together with Mr. Archie Bennett, Jr., as of June 30, 2019, owned approximately 314,685 shares of Ashford Inc. common stock, which represented an approximate 12.7% ownership interest in Ashford Inc., and owned 7,520,000 shares of Ashford Inc. Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, which is exercisable (at an exercise price of $140 per share) into an additional approximate 1,342,857 shares of Ashford Inc. common stock, which if exercised as of June 30, 2019 would have increased the Bennetts’ ownership interest in Ashford Inc. to 43.4%.
Recent Developments
On January 22, 2019, the Company acquired a 100% interest in the 310-room Embassy Suites New York Manhattan Times Square for $195.0 million. In connection with this acquisition, we closed on a $145.0 million mortgage loan. This mortgage loan is interest only and provides for an interest rate of LIBOR + 3.90%. The stated maturity date of the mortgage loan is February 2022, with two one-year extension options. The mortgage loan is secured by the Embassy Suites New York Manhattan Times Square. As a result of the acquisition under the ERFP agreement, we are entitled to receive $19.5 million from Ashford LLC in the form of future purchases of hotel furniture, fixtures, and equipment at Ashford Trust properties that will be leased to us by Ashford LLC rent free. As of June 30, 2019, we received $8.1 million from Ashford LLC in exchange for purchases of hotel furniture, fixtures, and equipment at Ashford Trust properties that was leased to us by Ashford LLC rent free.

On February 26, 2019, the Company acquired a 100% interest in the 178-room Hilton Santa Cruz/Scotts Valley for $47.5 million. Consideration included cash and approximately 1.5 million common units in our operating partnership. Additionally, we assumed a $25.3 million non-recourse mortgage loan with a fair value of $24.9 million. This mortgage loan amortizes monthly and provides for a fixed interest rate of 4.66%. The stated maturity date of the mortgage loan is March 2025. The mortgage loan is secured by the Hilton Santa Cruz/Scotts Valley. As a result of the acquisition under the ERFP agreement, we received $5.0

Table of Contents
million from Ashford LLC in exchange for purchases of hotel furniture, fixtures, and equipment at Ashford Trust properties that was leased to us by Ashford LLC rent free.
On March 5, 2019, we refinanced our $178.1 million mortgage, secured by the Renaissance Nashville and Westin Princeton. The new mortgage loan totals $240.0 million. The mortgage loan is interest only and provides for an interest rate of LIBOR + 2.75%. The stated maturity is March 2021 with five one-year extension options, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. The mortgage loan is secured by the Renaissance Nashville and Westin Princeton.
On June 7, 2019, we amended the mortgage loan secured by the Fort Worth Ashton totaling $5.2 million. The amended mortgage loan totaling $8.9 million has a five-year term, is interest only and bears interest at a rate of LIBOR + 2.00%.
On July 19, 2019, we filed an Amendment No. 2 to our Schedule 13D with the SEC (as amended, the “Schedule 13D”). As disclosed in the Schedule 13D, each party’s obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Combination Agreement is subject to certain conditions, including, among other things: (i) the receipt of a private letter ruling from the Internal Revenue Service that Ashford Hospitality Services LLC, a subsidiary of Ashford Inc., will not fail to qualify as an “eligible independent contractor” within the meaning of Section 856(d)(9)(A) of the Code with respect to specified clients solely as a result of (a) Ashford Hospitality Services LLC being a brother-sister affiliate of Ashford Hospitality Advisors LLC, or (b) the taxable REIT subsidiaries (within the meaning of Code Section 856(i.c.l)) of such clients receiving specified incentives from Ashford Hospitality Advisors LLC; and (ii) the completion of the divestiture by Ashford Trust and Braemar of their securities of Ashford Inc. in a manner that complies with the private letter ruling.
Ashford Trust, acting at the direction of a committee of independent directors of Ashford Trust, who are independent within the meaning of applicable rules of the NYSE and do not have a material financial interest within the meaning of Section 2-419 of the Maryland General Corporation Law in the transactions contemplated by the Combination Agreement, intends, as of the date of the Schedule 13D, to vote or cause to be voted all of the shares beneficially owned by Ashford Trust in favor of each proposal presented to the stockholders at the Ashford Inc. special meeting of stockholders to consider and vote upon on the transactions contemplated by the Combination Agreement; and, as of the date of the Schedule 13D, intends to divest (or cause the divestiture) of all of the securities of Ashford Inc. beneficially owned by Ashford Trust as required by the closing conditions set forth in the Combination Agreement.
On August 2, 2019, the Company sold the San Antonio Marriott for approximately
$34.0 million
in cash. The Company also repaid approximately
$26.8 million
of principal on our mortgage loan partially secured by the hotel property.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenue per available room, or RevPAR, is a commonly used measure within the hotel industry to evaluate hotel operations. RevPAR is defined as the product of the ADR charged and the average daily occupancy achieved. RevPAR does not include revenues from food and beverage or parking, telephone, or other guest services generated by the property. Although RevPAR does not include these ancillary revenues, it is generally considered the leading indicator of core revenues for many hotels. We also use RevPAR to compare the results of our hotels between periods and to analyze results of our comparable hotels (comparable hotels represent hotels we have owned for the periods under comparison). RevPAR improvements attributable to increases in occupancy are generally accompanied by increases in most categories of variable operating costs. RevPAR improvements attributable to increases in ADR are generally accompanied by increases in limited categories of operating costs, such as management fees and franchise fees.

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to the Company.
Net loss attributable to the Company decreased
$2.0 million
, from
$18.3 million
for the three months ended
June 30, 2018
(the “
2018
quarter”) to
$16.3 million
for the three months ended
June 30, 2019
(the “
2019
quarter”) as a result of the factors discussed below.
Revenue.
Rooms revenue from our hotel properties and WorldQuest
in
creased
$18.9 million
, or
6.1%
, to
$328.3 million
in the
2019
quarter compared to the
2018
quarter. This increase is attributable to higher rooms revenue of $16.9 million from our Hotel Acquisitions and $2.9 million at our comparable hotel properties and WorldQuest. These increases were partially offset by lower rooms revenue of $944,000 from our Hotel Dispositions. Our comparable hotel properties experienced an increase of
1.3%
in room rates and a decrease of
44
basis points in occupancy.
Food and beverage revenue
in
creased
$6.9 million
, or
11.4%
, to
$67.3 million
. This
in
crease is attributable to higher food and beverage revenue of $4.1 million at our comparable hotel properties and WorldQuest and $2.8 million from our Hotel Acquisitions. The Hotel Dispositions did not generate food and beverage revenue in the
2018
quarter.
Other hotel revenue, which consists mainly of Internet access, parking, spa and business interruption revenue,
de
creased
$83,000
, or
0.4%
, to
$18.5 million
. This
de
crease is primarily attributable to decreases in business interruption revenue of $1.8 million. In the
2018
quarter we received $1.9 million of business interruption income for the Key West Crowne Plaza related to a settlement for lost profits from the BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010. In the
2019
quarter we received $91,000 of business interruption income related to SpringHill Suites BWI Hotel. There was an additional decrease of $37,000 from our Hotel Dispositions. These decreases were partially offset by higher other hotel revenue of $986,000 from our Hotel Acquisitions and $812,000 from our comparable hotel properties and WorldQuest. Other non-hotel revenue increased
$327,000
, or
41.1%
, to
$1.1 million
in the
2019
quarter as compared to the
2018
quarter.
Hotel Operating Expenses.
Hotel operating expenses increased
$16.7 million
, or
7.1%
, to

. Hotel operating expenses consist of direct expenses from departments associated with revenue streams and indirect expenses associated with support departments and management fees. Direct expenses increased
$8.6 million
in the
2019
quarter as compared to the
2018
quarter, which was comprised of an increase of $6.0 million from our Hotel Acquisitions and $2.8 million from our comparable hotel properties and WorldQuest, partially offset by a decrease of $251,000 from our Hotel Dispositions. Direct expenses were
28.3%
of total hotel revenue for the
2019
quarter and
28.0%
for the
2018
quarter. Indirect expenses and management fees
in
creased
$8.1 million
in the
2019
quarter as compared to the
2018
quarter, which was comprised of an
in
crease of $6.1 million from our Hotel Acquisitions and $2.4 million from our comparable hotel properties and WorldQuest, partially offset by a decrease of $358,000 from our Hotel Dispositions.
Property Taxes, Insurance and Other.
Property taxes, insurance and other
in
creased
$1.5 million
, or
7.6%
, to
$21.8 million
during the
2019
quarter compared to the
2018
quarter, which was primarily due to an increase of $1.4 million from our Hotel Acquisitions and $216,000 at our comparable hotel properties and WorldQuest, partially offset by a $70,000 decrease from our Hotel Dispositions.

, or
9.7%
, to
$2.9 million
during the

2018
quarter. The
de
crease was primarily attributable to lower transaction, acquisition and management conversion costs of $213,000 and lower public company costs, office expenses, professional fees and other miscellaneous expenses of $187,000, partially offset by higher equity-based compensation to Premier Project Management employees of $86,000 in the

$544,000
, from income of $206,000 in the
2018
quarter to expense of

quarter. In the
2019
quarter, we recorded other expense of $271,000 related to CMBX premiums and interest paid on collateral and a realized loss of $225,000 on interest rate floors. These expenses were partially offset by dividend income of $74,000, other income of $65,000 and a realized gain on marketable securities of $19,000.

, or
16.8%
, to
$68.0 million
during the
2019
quarter compared to the
2018
quarter. The
in
crease is primarily due to higher interest expense and amortization of loan costs of $5.6 million at our comparable hotel properties due to higher LIBOR rates and higher amortization of loan costs from refinanced mortgage loans and $4.2 million as a result of our Hotel Acquisitions, partially offset by lower interest expense and amortization of loan costs of $45,000 from our Hotel Dispositions. The average LIBOR rates in the
2019
quarter and the

quarter were 2.44% and 1.91%, respectively.

In the 2018 quarter, we recognized unrealized losses of $1.8 million and $147,000 associated with interest rate caps and interest rate floors, respectively. These unrealized losses were partially offset by an unrealized gain of $76,000 from CMBX tranches. The fair value of interest rate floors and interest rate caps are primarily based on movements in the LIBOR forward curve and the passage of time. The fair value of credit default swaps is based on the change in value of CMBX indices.

Net (Income) Loss Attributable to Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests in Operating Partnership.
Noncontrolling interests in operating partnership were allocated net losses of
$13.7 million
and
$11.4 million
in the
2019
and
2018
periods, respectively. Redeemable noncontrolling interests represented ownership interests of
15.88%
and 14.89% in the operating partnership at
June 30, 2019
and
2018
, respectively.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our cash position from operations is affected primarily by macro industry movements in occupancy and rate as well as our ability to control costs. Further, interest rates can greatly affect the cost of our debt service as well as the value of any financial hedges we may put in place. We monitor industry fundamentals and interest rates very closely. Capital expenditures above our reserves will affect cash flow as well.
Certain of our loan agreements contain cash trap provisions that may get triggered if the performance of our hotels decline. When these provisions are triggered, substantially all of the profit generated by our hotels is deposited directly into lockbox accounts and then swept into cash management accounts for the benefit of our various lenders.
Also, we have entered into certain customary guaranty agreements pursuant to which we guaranty payment of any recourse liabilities of our subsidiaries or joint ventures that may result from non-recourse carve-outs, which include, but are not limited to fraud, misrepresentation, willful misconduct resulting in waste, misappropriations of rents following an event of default, voluntary bankruptcy filings, unpermitted transfers of collateral, and certain environmental liabilities. Certain of these guarantees represent a guaranty of material amounts, and if we are required to make payments under those guarantees.
These factors and others could affect our liquidity and our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.
On December 5, 2017, the board of directors reapproved a stock repurchase program (the “Repurchase Program”) pursuant to which the board of directors granted a repurchase authorization to acquire shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) having an aggregate value of up to $200 million. The board of director’s authorization replaced any previous repurchase authorizations. No shares were repurchased during the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
pursuant to the Repurchase Program.
On December 11, 2017, we entered into equity distribution agreements with UBS Securities LLC, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, B. Riley FBR, Inc., Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated, D.A. Davidson & Co., Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. and Janney Montgomery Scott LLC, each acting as a sales agent (the “Equity Distribution Agreements”). Pursuant to the Equity Distribution Agreements, we may sell from time to time through the sales agents shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $100.0 million. Sales of shares of our common stock, if any, may be made in negotiated transactions or transactions that are deemed to be “at-the-market” offerings as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act, including sales made directly on the New York Stock Exchange, the existing trading market for our common stock, or sales made to or through a market maker other than on an exchange or through an electronic communications network. We will pay each of the sales agents a commission, which in each case shall not be more than 2.0% of the gross sales price of the shares of our common stock sold through such sales agent. No shares were issued during the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
. As of
June 30, 2019
, we have issued approximately
2.4

million
shares of our common stock for gross proceeds of approximately
$15.5 million
leaving approximately
$84.5 million
available under the program.
On January 22, 2019, in connection with the acquisition of the Embassy Suites New York Manhattan Times Square, we closed on a
$145.0 million
mortgage loan. This mortgage loan is interest only and provides for an interest rate of LIBOR +
3.90%
. The stated maturity date of the mortgage loan is February 2022, with two one-year extensions. The mortgage loan is secured by the Embassy Suites New York Manhattan Times Square.
On February 26, 2019, in connection with the acquisition of the Hilton Santa Cruz/Scotts Valley, we assumed a
$25.3 million
non-recourse mortgage loan with a fair value of $24.9 million. This mortgage loan amortizes monthly and provides for a fixed interest rate of 4.66%. The stated maturity date of the mortgage loan is March 2025. The mortgage loan is secured by the Hilton Santa Cruz/Scotts Valley.
On March 5, 2019, we refinanced our $178.1 million mortgage loan, secured by the Renaissance Nashville and Westin Princeton. The new mortgage loan totals $240.0 million. The mortgage loan is interest only and provides for an interest rate of LIBOR + 2.75%. The stated maturity is March 2021 with five one-year extension options, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. The mortgage loan is secured by the Renaissance Nashville and Westin Princeton.
On June 7, 2019, we amended the mortgage loan secured by the Fort Worth Ashton totaling $5.2 million. The amended mortgage loan totaling $8.9 million has a five-year term, is interest only and bears interest at a rate of LIBOR + 2.00%.
On August 2, 2019, we repaid
$26.8 million
of principal on our mortgage loan partially secured by the San Antonio Marriott as a result of the sale of the hotel property.
Secured Credit Facility
We have a one-year, senior secured revolving credit facility in the amount of $100 million. We believe the secured credit facility will provide us with financial flexibility to fund future acquisitions.
The secured credit facility is provided by Bank of America, N.A. Ashford Hospitality Limited Partnership, as the borrower. We guarantee the secured credit facility, which is secured by a pledge of 100% of the equity interests in the subsidiaries that own the hotel property for which revolving credit facility funds were used to acquire. The proceeds of the secured revolving credit facility may be used for property acquisitions.
The secured credit facility also contains customary terms, covenants, negative covenants, events of default, limitations and other conditions for credit facilities of this type. Subject to certain exceptions, we are subject to restrictions on incurring additional indebtedness, mergers and fundamental changes, sales or other dispositions of property, changes in the nature of our business and investments.
We also are subject to certain financial covenants, as set forth below, which are tested by the borrower on a consolidated basis (net of the amounts attributable to the noncontrolling interest held by our partner in a majority-owned consolidated entity) and include, but are not limited to, the following:
•
the ratio of total funded indebtedness (less unrestricted cash in excess of $15 million) to EBITDA shall not be greater than 9.75 to 1.0. Our ratio was 9.32 at
June 30, 2019
.
•
the ratio of EBITDA to fixed charges for the previous 4 consecutive fiscal quarters shall not be less than 1.25 to 1.0. Our ratio was 1.49 at
June 30, 2019
.
•
tangible net worth shall not at any time be less than 75% of the consolidated tangible net worth on the closing date of the secured credit facility plus 75% of the net proceeds of all new equity issuances of the consolidated group.
All financial covenants are tested and certified by the borrower on a quarterly basis. We were in compliance with all covenants at
June 30, 2019
.
The secured credit facility includes customary events of default and the occurrence of an event of default will permit the lenders to terminate commitments to lend under the secured revolving credit facility and accelerate payment of all amounts outstanding thereunder. If a default occurs and is continuing, we will be precluded from making distributions on our shares of common stock (other than those required to allow us to qualify and maintain our status as a REIT, so long as such default does not arise from a payment default or event of insolvency).
The interest rate associated with the borrowings under the secured credit facility is either the base rate + 1.65% or LIBOR + 2.65% at the Company’s election. The base rate is the greater of (i) the prime rate set by Bank of America; (ii) federal funds rate + 0.5%; or (iii) LIBOR + 1.00%.
53
Table of Contents
The secured credit facility is a one-year interest-only facility with any outstanding principal being due at maturity on September 26, 2019. Borrowings must be repaid within 180 days.
We intend to repay any indebtedness incurred under our secured credit facility from time to time out of net cash provided by operations and from the net proceeds of issuances of additional equity and debt securities or sale of assets, as market conditions permit.
As of both
August 6, 2019
and
June 30, 2019
, no amounts were outstanding under the secured credit facility.
Sources and Uses of Cash
Our principal sources of funds to meet our cash requirements include: cash on hand, cash flow from operations, capital market activities, property refinancing proceeds and asset sales. Additionally, our principal uses of funds are expected to include possible operating shortfalls, owner-funded capital expenditures, dividends, new investments, and debt interest and principal payments. Items that impacted our cash flow and liquidity during the periods indicated are summarized as follows:
Net Cash Flows Provided by (Used in) Operating Activities.
Net cash flows provided by operating activities, pursuant to our consolidated statements of cash flows, which includes changes in balance sheet items, were
$92.3 million
and
$99.0 million
for the
six months ended
June 30, 2019
and
2018
, respectively. Cash flows from operations were impacted by changes in hotel operations, our hotel acquisitions in 2018 and 2019, our hotel dispositions in 2018 as well as the timing of collecting receivables from hotel guests, paying vendors, settling with derivative counterparties, settling with related parties and settling with hotel managers.
Net Cash Flows Provided by (Used in) Investing Activities.
For the
six months ended
June 30, 2019
, net cash flows used in investing activities were
$277.8 million
. Cash outflows primarily consisted of
$81.5 million
for capital improvements made to various hotel properties and
$213.1 million
primarily related to the purchase of the Hilton Santa Cruz/Scotts Valley and Embassy Suites New York Manhattan Times Square hotels. Cash outflows were partially offset by cash inflows of
$13.1 million
from proceeds received from the sale of furniture, fixtures and equipment for ERFP and
$4.0 million
of proceeds from a franchise agreement extension. For the
six months ended
June 30, 2018
, net cash flows used in investing activities were
$188.7 million
. Cash outflows primarily consisted of
$117.7 million
for capital improvements made to various hotel properties,
$111.8 million
for the acquisition of the Hilton Alexandria and an additional
$667,000
investment in OpenKey. Cash outflows were partially offset by
$40.9 million
of net cash proceeds from the sale of the SpringHill Suites Glen Allen, SpringHill Suites Centreville and Residence Inn Tampa and
$651,000
from property insurance.
Net Cash Flows Provided by (Used in) Financing Activities.
For the
six months ended
June 30, 2019
, net cash flows provided by financing activities were
$146.2 million
. Cash inflows were
$388.7 million
from borrowings on indebtedness. Cash inflows were partially offset by cash outflows of
$181.2 million
for repayments of indebtedness,
$50.3 million
for dividend payments to common and preferred stockholders and unitholders,
$9.1 million
for payments of loan costs and exit fees,
$1.0 million
of payments for derivatives and
$906,000
for the repurchase of common stock. For the
six months ended
June 30, 2018
, net cash flows provided by financing activities were
$170.4 million
. Cash inflows primarily consisted of
$2.7 billion
of borrowings on indebtedness. Cash inflows were partially offset by cash outflows of
$2.5 billion
for repayments of indebtedness,
$47.8 million
for dividend payments to common and preferred stockholders and unitholders,
$54.4 million
for payments of loan costs and exit fees,
$3.1 million
of payments for derivatives and
$1.6 million
for the repurchase of common stock.
We are required to maintain certain financial ratios under various debt and derivative agreements. If we violate covenants in any debt or derivative agreement, we could be required to repay all or a portion of our indebtedness before maturity at a time when we might be unable to arrange financing for such repayment on attractive terms, if at all. Presently, our existing financial debt covenants primarily relate to maintaining minimum net worth and leverage ratios and liquidity. As of
June 30, 2019
, we were in compliance in all material respects with all covenants or other requirements set forth in our debt and related agreements.
Mortgage and mezzanine loans are nonrecourse to the borrowers, except for customary exceptions or carve-outs that trigger recourse liability to the borrowers in certain limited instances. Recourse obligations typically include only the payment of costs and liabilities suffered by lenders as a result of the occurrence of certain bad acts on the part of the borrower. However, in certain cases, carve-outs could trigger recourse obligations on the part of the borrower with respect to repayment of all or a portion of the outstanding principal amount of the loans. We have entered into customary guaranty agreements pursuant to which we guaranty payment of any recourse liabilities of the borrowers that result from non-recourse carve-outs (which include, but are not limited to, fraud, misrepresentation, willful conduct resulting in waste, misappropriations of rents following an event of default, voluntary bankruptcy filings, unpermitted transfers of collateral, and certain environmental liabilities). In the opinion of management, none of these guaranty agreements, either individually or in the aggregate, are likely to have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition as of
June 30, 2019
.

Table of Contents
Based on our current level of operations, management believes that our cash flow from operations and our existing cash balances should be adequate to meet upcoming anticipated requirements for interest and principal payments on debt (excluding any potential final maturity principal payments), working capital, and capital expenditures for the next 12 months and dividends required to maintain our status as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. With respect to upcoming maturities, we will continue to proactively address the refinancing or repayment of our 2019 and 2020 maturities. No assurances can be given that we will obtain additional financings or, if we do, what the amount and terms will be. Our failure to obtain future financing under favorable terms could adversely impact our ability to execute our business strategy. In addition, we may selectively pursue debt financing on individual properties.
We are committed to an investment strategy where we will opportunistically pursue hotel-related investments as suitable situations arise. Funds for future hotel-related investments are expected to be derived, in whole or in part, from cash on hand, future borrowings under a credit facility or other loans, or proceeds from additional issuances of common stock, preferred stock, or other securities, asset sales, and joint ventures. However, there can be no assurance that we will successfully make additional investments. We may, when conditions are suitable, consider additional capital raising opportunities.
Our existing hotel properties are mostly located in developed areas with competing hotel properties. Future occupancy, ADR, and RevPAR of any individual hotel could be materially and adversely affected by an increase in the number or quality of competitive hotel properties in its market area. Competition could also affect the quality and quantity of future investment opportunities.
Dividend Policy
.
During the three month periods ended
June 30, 2019
and
2018
, the board of directors declared quarterly dividends of $0.06 per share and $0.12 per share, respectively, of outstanding common stock. In December 2018, the board of directors approved our
2019
dividend policy which was modified in June 2019. The revised dividend policy anticipates a quarterly dividend payment of $0.06 per share for the remainder of
2019
. However, the adoption of a dividend policy does not commit our board of directors to declare future dividends. The board of directors will continue to review our dividend policy on a quarterly basis. We may incur indebtedness to meet distribution requirements imposed on REITs under the Internal Revenue Code to the extent that working capital and cash flow from our investments are insufficient to fund required distributions. Alternatively, we may elect to pay dividends on our common stock in cash or a combination of cash and shares of securities as permitted under federal income tax laws governing REIT distribution requirements. We may pay dividends in excess of our cash flow.
SEASONALITY
Our properties’ operations historically have been seasonal as certain properties maintain higher occupancy rates during the summer months, while certain other properties maintain higher occupancy rates during the winter months. This seasonality pattern can cause fluctuations in our quarterly lease revenue under our percentage leases. We anticipate that our cash flows from the operations of our properties will be sufficient to enable us to make quarterly distributions to maintain our REIT status. To the extent that cash flows from operations are insufficient during any quarter due to temporary or seasonal fluctuations in lease revenue, we expect to utilize other cash on hand or borrowings to fund required distributions. However, we cannot make any assurances that we will make distributions in the future.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
In the normal course of business, we form partnerships or joint ventures that operate certain hotels. We evaluate each partnership and joint venture to determine whether the entity is a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”). If the entity is determined to be a VIE, we assess whether we are the primary beneficiary and need to consolidate the entity. For further discussion of the company’s VIEs, see note
2
to our consolidated financial statements.
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
There have been no material changes since
December 31, 2018
, outside of the ordinary course of business, to contractual obligations specified in the table of contractual obligations included in the section “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our
2018
Form 10-K.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Our accounting policies that are critical or most important to understanding our financial condition and results of operations and that require management to make the most difficult judgments are described in our
2018
Form 10-K. There have been no material changes in these critical accounting policies.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
The following non-GAAP presentations of EBITDA, EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDAre, Funds From Operations (“FFO”) and Adjusted FFO are presented to help our investors evaluate our operating performance.
55
Table of Contents
EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense and amortization of premiums and loan costs, net, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, equity in earnings/loss of unconsolidated entities and after the Company’s portion of EBITDA of unconsolidated entities. In addition, we include impairment charges on real estate, gain/loss on sale of hotel properties and gain/loss on sale of hotel properties of unconsolidated entities to calculate EBITDAre, as defined by NAREIT.
We then further adjust EBITDAre to exclude certain additional items such as uninsured hurricane related costs, gain/loss on insurance settlements, write-off of premiums, loan costs and exit fees, other income/expense, net, transaction, acquisition and management conversion costs, legal judgment and related legal costs, dead deal costs, advisory services incentive fee and non-cash items such as amortization of unfavorable contract liabilities, non-cash stock/unit-based compensation, unrealized gains/losses on marketable securities and derivative instruments, as well as our portion of adjustments to EBITDAre of unconsolidated entities.
We present EBITDA, EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre because we believe they reflect more accurately the ongoing performance of our hotel assets and other investments and provide more useful information to investors as they are indicators of our ability to meet our future debt payment requirements, working capital requirements and they provide an overall evaluation of our financial condition. EBITDA, EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre as calculated by us may not be comparable to EBITDA, EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre reported by other companies that do not define EBITDA, EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre exactly as we define the terms. EBITDA, EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre do not represent cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to operating income or net income determined in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of performance or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as determined by GAAP as an indicator of liquidity.
Beginning with the three months ended March 31, 2018, we have started reporting EBITDA for real estate, or EBITDAre, as defined by NAREIT, and Adjusted EBITDAre. Previously, we reported Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDAre is calculated in a similar manner as Adjusted EBITDA, with the exception of the adjustment for the consolidated noncontrolling interest’s pro rata share of Adjusted EBITDA. The rationale for including 100% of EBITDAre for consolidated noncontrolling interests is that the full amount of any debt of these entities is reported in our consolidated balance sheet and therefore metrics using total debt to EBITDAre provide a better understanding of the Company’s leverage. This is also consistent with NAREIT’s definition of EBITDAre. All prior periods have been adjusted to conform to the current period presentation.

Table of Contents
We calculate FFO and Adjusted FFO in the following table. FFO is calculated on the basis defined by NAREIT, which is net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses on properties, and extraordinary items as defined by GAAP, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, impairment charges on real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated entities and noncontrolling interests in the operating partnership. Adjustments for unconsolidated entities are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. NAREIT developed FFO as a relative measure of performance of an equity REIT to recognize that income-producing real estate historically has not depreciated on the basis determined by GAAP. Our calculation of Adjusted FFO excludes write-off of loan costs and exit fees, gain/loss on insurance settlements, uninsured hurricane related costs, other income/expense, net transaction, acquisition and management conversion costs, legal judgment and related legal costs, dead deal costs, advisory services incentive fee and non-cash items such as non-cash stock/unit-based compensation, amortization of loan costs, unrealized gains/losses on marketable securities and derivative instruments, as well as our portion of adjustments to FFO related to unconsolidated entities. We exclude items from Adjusted FFO that are either non-cash or are not part of our core operations in order to provide a period-over-period comparison of our operating results. We consider FFO and Adjusted FFO to be appropriate measures of our ongoing normalized operating performance as a REIT. We compute FFO in accordance with our interpretation of standards established by NAREIT, which may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that either do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or interpret the NAREIT definition differently than us. FFO and Adjusted FFO do not represent cash generated from operating activities as determined by GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to a) GAAP net income or loss as an indication of our financial performance or b) GAAP cash flows from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to satisfy our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions. However, to facilitate a clear understanding of our historical operating results, we believe that FFO and Adjusted FFO should be considered along with our net income or loss and cash flows reported in the consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our primary market risk exposure consists of changes in interest rates on borrowings under our debt instruments. The analysis below presents the sensitivity of the market value of our financial instruments to selected changes in market interest rates.
At
June 30, 2019
, our total indebtedness of
$4.2 billion
included
$3.8 billion
of variable-rate debt. The impact on our results of operations of a 25-basis point change in interest rate on the outstanding balance of variable-rate debt at
June 30, 2019
would be approximately
$9.6 million
annually. Interest rate changes have no impact on the remaining
$364.4 million
of fixed-rate debt.
The above amounts were determined based on the impact of hypothetical interest rates on our borrowings and assume no changes in our capital structure. As the information presented above includes only those exposures that existed at
June 30, 2019
, it does not consider exposures or positions that could arise after that date. Accordingly, the information presented herein has limited predictive value. As a result, the ultimate realized gain or loss with respect to interest rate fluctuations will depend on exposures that arise during the period, the hedging strategies at the time, and the related interest rates.
We use credit default swaps, tied to the CMBX index, to hedge financial and capital market risk. We have entered into credit default swap transactions, excluding those that have terminated, for notional amounts totaling
$212.5 million
, to hedge financial and capital market risk. A credit default swap is a derivative contract that functions like an insurance policy against the credit risk of an entity or obligation. The seller of protection assumes the credit risk of the reference obligation from the buyer (us) of protection in exchange for annual premium payments. If a default or a loss, as defined in the credit default swap agreements, occurs on the underlying bonds, then the buyer of protection is protected against those losses. The only liability for us, the buyer, is the annual premium and any change in value of the underlying CMBX index (if the trade is terminated prior to maturity). For all CMBX trades completed to date, we were the buyer of protection. Credit default swaps are subject to master-netting settlement arrangements and credit support annexes. Assuming the underlying bonds pay off at par over their remaining average life, our total exposure for these trades was approximately
$4.3 million
at
June 30, 2019
.
We hold interest rate floors with notional amounts totaling
$24.0 billion
and strike rates ranging from
(0.25)%
to
2.0%
. Our total exposure is capped at our initial upfront costs totaling
$10.0 million
. These instruments have termination dates ranging from
September 2019
to
November 2021
.
ITEM 4.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, our management has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of
June 30, 2019
(the “Evaluation Date”). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective (i) to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms; and (ii) to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Litigation
—
Palm Beach Florida Hotel and Office Building Limited Partnership, et al. v. Nantucket Enterprises, Inc.
This litigation involves a landlord tenant dispute from 2008 in which the landlord, Palm Beach Florida Hotel and Office Building Limited Partnership, a subsidiary of the Company, claimed that the tenant had violated various lease provisions of the lease agreement and was therefore in default. The tenant counterclaimed and asserted multiple claims including that it had been wrongfully evicted. The litigation was instituted by the plaintiff in November 2008 in the Circuit Court of the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit, in and for Palm Beach County, Florida and proceeded to a jury trial on June 30, 2014. The jury entered its verdict awarding the tenant total claims of
$10.8 million
and ruling against the landlord on its claim of breach of contract. In 2016, the Court of Appeals reduced the original
$10.8 million
judgment to
$8.8 million
and added pre-judgment interest on the wrongful eviction judgment. The case was further appealed to the Florida Supreme Court. On May 23, 2017, the trial court issued an order compelling the company that issued the supersedeas bond, RLI Insurance Company (“RLI”), to pay approximately
$10.0 million
. On June 1, 2017, RLI paid Nantucket this amount and sought reimbursement from the Company, and on June 7, 2017, the Company paid
$2.5 million
of the judgement. On June 27, 2017, the Florida Supreme Court denied the Company’s petition for review. As a result, all of the appeals were exhausted and the judgment was final with the determination and reimbursement of attorney’s fees being the only remaining dispute. On June 29, 2017, the balance of the judgment of
$3.9 million
was paid to Nantucket by the Company. On July 26, 2018, we paid
$544,000
as part of a settlement on certain legal fees. The negotiations relating to the potential payment of the remaining attorney’s fees are still ongoing. As of
June 30, 2019
, we have accrued approximately
$504,000
in legal fees, which represents the Company’s estimate of the amount of potential remaining legal fees that could be owed.
We are engaged in other various legal proceedings which have arisen but have not been fully adjudicated. The likelihood of loss from these legal proceedings, based on definitions within contingency accounting literature, ranges from remote to reasonably possible and to probable. Based on estimates of the range of potential losses associated with these matters, management does not believe the ultimate resolution of these proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations. However, the final results of legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty and if we fail to prevail in one or more of these legal matters, and the associated realized losses exceed our current estimates of the range of potential losses, our consolidated financial position or results of operations could be materially adversely affected in future periods.
ITEM 1A.
RISK FACTORS
The discussion of our business and operations should be read together with the risk factors contained in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31,
2018
, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which describe various risks and uncertainties to which we are or may become subject. These risks and uncertainties have the potential to affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, strategies, or prospects in a material and adverse manner. At
June 30, 2019
, there have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2018
.
