Stephen Zsigray: Good morning. Thank you for joining us on today's call. Following my introductory comments, Deric will provide a review of our financial results, and Chris will provide an operational update on our portfolio. Before we begin, I'd like to remind everyone that in early December, we announced that the company has formed a special committee to evaluate strategic alternatives to maximize shareholder value, including a potential transaction. As we highlighted in that press release, we remain frustrated by the discrepancy between the value of our underlying portfolio and the market value of our common stock, and the board has tasked the special committee with proactively exploring alternatives to bridge that gap. In the interim, we will continue to execute on our strategy of driving outsized performance while pursuing opportunistic dispositions to deleverage, improve cash flow, and maximize shareholder value.

Speaker #3: And the board has tasked the special committee with proactively exploring alternatives to bridge that gap. In the interim, we will outsized performance while pursuing opportunistic dispositions to deleverage, improve cash flow, and maximize shareholder value.

Speaker #3: Any material updates will be publicly disseminated, but we do not have further details to share at this time. Our fourth quarter and full year financial results reflect the combined impact of two competing realities.

Stephen Zsigray: Any material updates will be publicly disseminated. We do not have further details to share at this time. Our Q4 and full year financial results reflect the combined impact of two competing realities. On one hand, we felt the ongoing pressures across the lodging industry-wide, negative RevPAR growth and margin compression, substantial reductions in government spend, elevated interest rates, and increased CapEx demands have created a challenging environment for owners. On the other hand, we've made tremendous progress with our Grow AHT initiatives, and our property managers have worked diligently to maximize revenues and minimize expenses. Despite numerous headwinds in 2025, we are pleased that for the full year, our portfolio delivered positive growth in comparable total revenues while achieving 2.4% growth in comparable Hotel EBITDA.

Speaker #3: On one hand, we felt the ongoing pressures across the lodging industry. Industry-wide, negative RevPAR growth and margin compression, substantial reductions in government spend, elevated interest rates, and increased CapEx demands have created a challenging environment for owners.

Speaker #3: On the other hand, we've made tremendous progress with our Grow AHT initiatives, and our property managers have worked diligently to maximize revenues and minimize expenses.

Speaker #3: Despite numerous headwinds in 2025, we are pleased for the full year our portfolio delivered positive growth in comparable total revenues while achieving 2.4% growth in comparable hotel EBITDA.

Speaker #3: Our efforts also extended to corporate G&A, where we achieved more than $13 million in year-over-year improvement. In total, we estimate that the Grow AHT initiatives contributed over $40 million in EBITDA improvement in 2025, and we expect to continue building on these efforts moving forward.

Stephen Zsigray: Our efforts also extended to corporate G&A, where we achieved more than $13 million in year-over-year improvement. In total, we estimate that the Grow AHT initiatives contributed over $40 million in EBITDA improvement in 2025. We expect to continue building on these efforts moving forward. Beyond our focus on driving outsized performance, we continue to execute on strategic dispositions to strengthen our capital structure, improve cash flow, and maximize shareholder value. Since paying off our remaining corporate level debt last February, we've now completed the sale of 6 hotels, including the Hilton Houston NASA Clear Lake, the Residence Inn, Evansville, the Residence Inn, Sorrento Mesa, the Le Pavillon Hotel in New Orleans, the Embassy Suites in Houston, and the Embassy Suites in Austin.

Speaker #3: In total, these sales generated approximately $145 million in sales proceeds, representing a blended $3.9% trailing cap rate, while also eliminating nearly $50 million in anticipated capital expenditures.

Stephen Zsigray: In total, these sales generated approximately $145 million in sales proceeds, representing a blended 3.9 trailing cap rate, while also eliminating nearly $50 million in anticipated CapEx. Proceeds were used primarily to pay down mortgage debt, resulting in approximately $5 million in improvement to annualized portfolio cash flow after debt service. We also recently announced agreements to sell the La Posada de Santa Fe Resort & Spa for $57.5 million, and the Hilton St. Petersburg Bayfront for $96 million, both of which we expect to close in the coming weeks. Yesterday, signed an agreement to sell the Embassy Suites Palm Beach Gardens for $41 million. Collectively, these three sales represent a blended 6.9% trailing cap rate, and are expected to save an additional $45 million in anticipated CapEx.

Speaker #3: Petersburg Bayfront, for $96 million. Both of which we expect to close in the coming weeks. And yesterday, signed an agreement to sell the Embassy Suites Palm Beach Gardens for $41 million.

Speaker #3: Collectively, these three sales represent a blended $6.9% trailing cap rate, and are expected to save an additional $45 million in anticipated capital expenditures. Opportunistic dispositions will remain a core component of our strategy in 2026.

Stephen Zsigray: Opportunistic dispositions will remain a core component of our strategy in 2026, as we believe there are several additional assets in the portfolio that can yield similarly positive impact on leverage, cash flow after debt service, and future capital expenditures. While we may not ultimately transact on all of them, we are currently marketing or negotiating off-market transactions on 18 additional hotels. In addition to these sales, we recently announced a maturity default on our JPM 8 mortgage loan. This $325 million loan is secured by 8 hotels that generated approximately $20.2 million of net operating income in 2025.

Speaker #3: This $325 million loan is secured by eight hotels that generated approximately $20.2 million of net operating income in 2025. While we have engaged with a special servicer and will continue to work towards a favorable resolution, a disposition of these assets for the balance of the debt would represent a 6.2% trailing cap rate, and would yield many of the same benefits for the portfolio as our ongoing sales efforts in terms of cash flow improvement and future CapEx savings.

Stephen Zsigray: While we have engaged with a special servicer and will continue to work towards a favorable resolution, a disposition of these assets for the balance of the debt would represent a 6.2% trailing cap rate, and would yield many of the same benefits for the portfolio as our ongoing sales efforts, in terms of cash flow improvement and future CapEx savings. Looking ahead, while liquidity will remain constrained as we execute our plan, we expect that our continued focus on performance, combined with strategic low cap rate dispositions, will result in a leaner, stronger portfolio and will position the company to pursue accretive growth opportunities in the future. I will now turn the call over to Deric to review our Q4 and full year financial performance.

Speaker #3: Looking ahead, while liquidity will remain constrained as we execute our plan, we expect that our continued focus on performance, combined with strategic low cap rate dispositions, will result in a leaner, stronger portfolio and will position the company to pursue accretive growth opportunities in the future.

Speaker #4: Approximately 5% of our debt is fixed, and 95% is floating. In January 2026, we extended our Highland mortgage loan secured by 18 hotels as a condition to the extension.

Deric Eubanks: Approximately 5% of our debt is fixed and 95% is floating. In January 2026, we extended our Highland mortgage loan, secured by 18 hotels. As a condition to the extension, the loan was paid down by $10 million to a current balance of $723.6 million, or approximately 65% of the appraised value, and has a final maturity date of 09 July 2026. We ended the quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $66.8 million, and restricted cash of $149.6 million. The vast majority of that restricted cash is comprised of lender and manager-held reserve accounts. At the end of the quarter, we also had $25.7 million due from third-party hotel managers.

We ended the quarter with net working capital of approximately $103.2 million. As of 31 December 2025, our consolidated portfolio consisted of 68 hotels with 16,500 net rooms. Our share count currently stands at approximately 6.6 million fully diluted shares outstanding, which is comprised of 6.5 million shares of common stock and 0.1 million OP units. This concludes our financial review. I would now like to turn it over to Chris to discuss our asset management activities for the quarter.

Speaker #5: Thank you, Deric. During the fourth quarter, comparable hotel RevPAR decreased 1.8% compared to the prior year period. This performance was largely driven by the federal government shutdown that began in October, which resulted in declines in government-related demand.

Chris Nixon: Thank you, Deric. During Q4, comparable hotel RevPAR decreased 1.8% compared to the prior year period. This performance was largely driven by the federal government shutdown that began in October, which resulted in declines in government-related demand. Government room nights declined 27.9% during Q4 compared to the prior year period. Given that Washington, DC, represents over 14% of our total key count, this shutdown had an outsized impact on our portfolio. Excluding Washington, DC, comparable hotel RevPAR was flat, and total revenue increased slightly compared to the prior year period. Additionally, results were impacted by the absence of one-time events that benefited portfolio performance in the prior year, including the 2024 presidential election in Washington, DC.

Chris Nixon: Performance was further pressured by ongoing demand disruptions, including the closure of a major convention center in Austin, which constrained group and convention demand for three of our properties during the quarter. Despite these headwinds, we are pleased with the portfolio's performance for the full year 2025.

As mentioned earlier, full year 2025 Hotel EBITDA margin expanded by over 40 basis points compared to the prior year period, supported by disciplined cost controls and strong growth and high margin ancillary revenue. Close collaboration with our property managers, these initiatives generated approximately $7.7 billion of incremental other revenue for the full year compared to the prior year period, with other revenue increasing 11.5% on a per occupied room basis.

In partnership with our largest property manager, Remington, and our key brand partners, we continue to execute targeted actions across the portfolio, including the rollout of new ancillary revenue streams and improvements in food and beverage profitability. Collectively, these actions help protect performance in a softer demand environment and position the portfolio for continued improvement. During the Q4, a recent hotel opening delivered strong results in the portfolio, underscoring the value created through disciplined capital investment and strategic brand positioning. Le Méridien Fort Worth Downtown, which opened in August 2024, as a newly redeveloped premium boutique hotel in the heart of downtown, completed its first full quarter with a comparable prior year period in the Q4.

Chris Nixon: The property benefited from a significantly improved group mix, which established a strong base of demand and resulted in group room revenue growth of 201.2% compared to the prior year period. This base layer of demand provided the opportunity to push rate in our direct booking channels. Additionally, we are seeing increased revenue from its food and beverage outlets, including its signature rooftop lounge, which continues to gain traction as a local destination.
