PART I

This Annual Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance, or achievements of Apple REIT Six, Inc. (“the Company”) to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the ability of the Company to implement its acquisition strategy and operating strategy; the Company’s ability to manage planned growth; changes in economic cycles and competition within the hotel industry. Although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate, and therefore there can be no assurance that such statements included in this Annual Report will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the results or conditions described in such statements or the objectives and plans of the Company will be achieved. In addition, the Company’s qualification as a real estate investment trust involves the application of highly technical and complex provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Readers should carefully review the Company’s financial statements and the notes thereto, as well as the risk factors described in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and Item 1A.

 

Item 1. Business

Apple REIT Six, Inc. is a Virginia corporation formed to invest in hotels and other selected real estate in select metropolitan areas in the United States. Initial capitalization occurred on January 20, 2004 and operations began on May 28, 2004 when the Company acquired its first hotel.

The Company is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) which owns hotels in the United States. The REIT Modernization Act, effective January 1, 2001, permits real estate investment trusts to establish taxable businesses to conduct certain previously disallowed business activities. The Company has wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiaries which lease all of the Company’s hotels from wholly-owned qualified REIT subsidiaries. The hotels are operated and managed by affiliates of Marriott International, Inc. (“Marriott”), Stonebridge Realty Advisors, Inc. (“Stonebridge”), Hilton Hotels Corporation (“Hilton”), Western International (“Western”), Larry Blumberg & Associates (“LBA”), White Lodging Services Corporation (“WLS”), or Inn Ventures, Inc. (“Inn Ventures”) under separate hotel management agreements.

The Company has no foreign operations or assets and its operating structure includes only one segment. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation. Refer to Part II, Item 8 of this report, for the consolidated financial statements.

Website Access

The address of the Company’s Internet website is www.applereitsix.com. The Company makes available free of charge through its Internet website its annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as soon as reasonably practicable after the Company electronically files such material with, or furnishes it to, the SEC.

Business Objectives

The Company’s primary objective is to enhance shareholder value by increasing funds from operations and cash available for distributions through internal growth and selective hotel renovation. This strategy includes

Table of Contents

utilizing the Company’s asset management expertise to improve the quality of the Company’s hotels by aggressively managing room rates, partnering with industry leaders in hotel management and franchising the hotels with leading brands, thereby improving hotel revenue and operating performance. When cost effective, the Company renovates its properties to increase its ability to compete in particular markets. The Company believes its planned renovations and strong asset management will continue to improve financial results.

The Company currently owns 67 hotels and, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, has entered into contracts for the purchase of two additional hotels for a total purchase price of approximately $26.2 million. Both of these hotels are under construction, with completion of one expected in mid-2007 and the other in early 2008. The contracts are subject to normal due diligence and no assurances can be given that all of the conditions to closing will be satisfied. It is anticipated substantially all of the purchase price will be paid from cash on hand.

Financing

The Company purchased 5 hotels in 2006. The total gross purchase price for these properties was approximately $54.9 million. The Company used the proceeds from its best-efforts offering and assumed secured debt of $6.7 million to fund the purchase price.

Although there can be no assurance that additional debt will not be utilized, it is anticipated that cash on hand and cash from operations will satisfy the Company’s cash requirements. The Company’s bylaws require board approval and review of any debt financing obtained by the Company.

Industry and Competition

The hotel industry is highly competitive. Each of the Company’s hotels is located in a developed area that includes other hotels and competes for guests primarily with other hotels in the Company’s immediate vicinity and secondarily with other hotels in the Company’s geographic market. An increase in the number of competitive hotels in a particular area could have a material adverse effect on the occupancy, average daily rate (“ADR”) and revenue per available room (“RevPAR”) of the Company’s hotels in that area. The Company believes that brand recognition, location, price and quality (of both the hotel and the services provided) are the principal competitive factors affecting the Company’s hotels. Additionally, general economic conditions in a particular market, or nationally, can impact the performance of the hotels.

Hotel Operating Performance

The Company owns thirteen Hilton Garden Inn hotels, ten Residence Inn hotels, ten Courtyard hotels, eight SpringHill Suites hotels, six Homewood Suites hotels, six TownePlace Suites hotels, five Fairfield Inn hotels, four Hampton Inn hotels, three Hampton Inn & Suites hotels and two full service Marriott hotels. They are located in various states and, in aggregate, consist of 7,750 rooms.

Room revenue for these hotels totaled $217.6 million for the period owned in 2006, and the hotels achieved average occupancy of 74%, ADR of $105 and RevPAR of $78, compared with $91.6 million of room revenue, average occupancy of 71%, ADR of $101 and RevPAR of $72 for the period owned in 2005. The Company began 2005 with 11 hotels, acquired 51 additional hotels throughout 2005 and acquired 5 hotels during the first half of 2006. In general, performance at the Company’s hotels have met expectations for the period held. Hotel performance is impacted by many factors including the economic conditions in the United States, as well as each locality. As a result, there can be no assurance that the Company’s operating performance will continue to meet expectations in the future.

Management and Franchise Agreements

Each of the Company’s 67 hotels are operated and managed, under separate management agreements, by affiliates of one of the following companies: Marriott, Stonebridge, Hilton, Western, LBA, WLS, or Inn Ventures.

Table of Contents

The agreements provide for initial terms ranging from 2 to 30 years. Fees associated with the agreements generally include the payment of base management fees, incentive management fees, accounting fees, and other fees for centralized services which are allocated among all of the hotels that receive the benefit of such services. Base management fees are calculated as a percentage of gross revenues. Incentive management fees are calculated as a percentage of operating profit in excess of a priority return to the Company, as defined in the management agreements. The Company has the option to terminate the management agreements if specified performance thresholds are not satisfied. During the year ended December 31, 2006, the Company incurred approximately $8.7 million in management fees.

Stonebridge, Western, LBA, WLS, and Inn Ventures are not affiliated with either Marriott or Hilton, and as a result, the hotels managed by these companies were required to obtain separate franchise agreements with each respective franchisor. The Hilton franchise agreements generally provide for a term of 13 to 20 years. Fees associated with the Hilton agreements generally include the payment of royalty fees and program fees based on room revenues. The Marriott franchise agreements provide for an initial term of 15 to 20 years. Fees associated with the Marriott agreements include the payment of royalty fees, marketing fees, reservation fees and a communications support fee based on room revenues. During the year ended December 31, 2006, the Company incurred approximately $9.0 million in franchise fees.

Maintenance

The hotels have an ongoing need for renovation and refurbishment. Under various hotel management agreements, the Company has agreed to fund expenditures for periodic repairs, replacement or refurbishment of furniture, fixtures and equipment for the hotels in an amount equal to a certain percentage of gross revenues. In addition, other capital improvement projects are directly funded by the Company. During 2006 the Company spent approximately $15.7 million on capital expenditures.

Employees

During 2006, all employees involved in the day-to-day operation of the Company’s hotels were employed by third party management companies engaged pursuant to the hotel management agreements. The Company utilizes, through an advisory agreement for corporate and strategic support, personnel from Apple Six Advisors, Inc. (“ASA”) who in turn utilizes employees from Apple Hospitality Two, Inc.

Environmental Matters

In connection with each of the Company’s hotel acquisitions, the Company obtains a Phase I Environmental Report and additional environmental reports and surveys, as are necessitated by the preliminary report. Based on the reports, the Company is not aware of any environmental situations requiring remediation at the Company’s properties, which have not been, or are not currently being remediated as necessary. No material remediation costs have or are expected to occur.

The Company leased all of its hotels to wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiaries (collectively, the “lessee”) under master hotel lease agreements. The Company also used the proceeds of its offering to pay 2% of the gross purchase price for these hotels, which equals approximately $1.1 million, as a commission to Apple Six Realty Group, Inc. (“ASRG”). ASRG is owned by the Company’s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President, Glade M. Knight.

In 2006, the Company assumed approximately $6.7 million of secured debt associated with the purchase of the Courtyard hotel in Hillsboro, Oregon. The note bears interest at a rate of 6.4% per annum and matures on December 11, 2014.

No goodwill or intangible assets were recorded in connection with any of the acquisitions.

In addition, the Company has entered into contracts for the purchase of two additional hotels. Both of these hotels are under construction, with completion of one expected in mid-2007 and the other in early 2008. Although the Company believes there is a reasonable probability that it will acquire these hotels, there can be no assurance that all of the conditions to closing will be satisfied. The following table summarizes the location, brand, number of rooms and gross purchase price for each hotel (dollar amounts in thousands):

The Company has significant transactions with related parties. These transactions cannot be construed to be arms length, and the results of the Company’s operations may be different if these transactions were conducted with non-related parties.

Including ASRG and ASA discussed above, Mr. Knight is also Chairman and CEO of Apple Hospitality Two, Inc. (a hospitality REIT), Apple Hospitality Five, Inc. (a hospitality REIT) and Apple REIT Seven, Inc. (a diversified REIT). The Company’s Board of Directors are also on the board of Apple Hospitality Two, Inc. and Apple Hospitality Five, Inc.

Table of Contents

During 2006 the Company assigned its rights under four contracts for the purchase of hotels in Houston, TX, Brownsville, TX, Miami, FL and Stafford, TX to Apple REIT Seven, Inc. The assignments were completed with no cost or profit to the Company and were entered into to prevent the Company from incurring secured debt to complete its planned property acquisitions.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The following describes several risk factors which are applicable to the Company.

Hotel Operations

The Company’s hotels are subject to all of the risks common to the hotel industry. These risks could adversely affect hotel occupancy and the rates that can be charged for hotel rooms as well as hotel operating expenses, and generally include:

 

   

increases in supply of hotel rooms that exceed increases in demand;

 

   

increases in energy costs and other travel expenses that reduce business and leisure travel;

 

   

reduced business and leisure travel due to continued geo-political uncertainty, including terrorism;

 

   

adverse effects of declines in general and local economic activity; and

 

   

adverse effects of a downturn in the hotel industry.

General Economic Conditions

Changes in general or local economic or market conditions, increased costs of energy, increased costs of insurance, increased costs of products, increased costs and shortages of labor, competitive factors, fuel shortages, quality of management, the ability of a hotel chain to fulfill any obligations to operators of its hotel business, limited alternative uses for the building, changing consumer habits, condemnation or uninsured losses, changing demographics, changing traffic patterns, inability to remodel outmoded buildings as required by the franchise or lease agreement and other factors beyond the Company’s control may reduce the value of properties that the Company owns. As a result, cash available to make distributions to the shareholders may be affected.

Hospitality Industry

The success of the Company’s properties will depend largely on the property operators’ ability to adapt to dominant trends in the hotel industry as well as greater competitive pressures, increased consolidation, industry overbuilding, dependence on consumer spending patterns and changing demographics, the introduction of new concepts and products, availability of labor, price levels and general economic conditions. The success of a particular hotel brand, the ability of a hotel brand to fulfill any obligations to operators of its business, and trends in the hotel industry may affect the Company’s income and the funds it has available to distribute to shareholders.

The hospitality industry could also experience a significant decline in occupancy and average daily rates due to a reduction in both business and leisure travel. General economic conditions, increased fuel costs, natural disasters and terrorist attacks are a few factors that could affect an individual’s willingness to travel. The Company’s property insurance will typically cover losses for property damage due to terrorist attacks or natural disasters. However, the Company is not insured against the potential negative effect a terrorist attack or natural disaster would have on the hospitality industry as a whole.

Seasonality

The hotel industry is seasonal in nature. Generally, occupancy rates and hotel revenues are greater in the second and third quarters than in the first and fourth quarters. As a result, there may be quarterly fluctuations in results of

 

7


Table of Contents

operations of properties leased to subsidiaries. As a result, the Company may need to enter into short-term borrowing in certain periods in order to offset these fluctuations in revenues and to make distributions to shareholders.

Franchise Agreements

The Company’s wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiaries operate all of the properties pursuant to franchise or license agreements with nationally recognized hotel brands. These agreements contain specific standards for, and restrictions and limitations on, the operation and maintenance of the Company’s properties in order to maintain uniformity within the franchisor system. These standards could potentially conflict with the Company’s ability to create specific business plans tailored to each property and to each market.

Competition

The hotel industry is highly competitive. Each of the Company’s hotels is located in a developed area that includes other hotels and competes for guests primarily with other hotels in the Company’s immediate vicinity and secondarily with other hotels in the Company’s geographic market. An increase in the number of competitive hotels in a particular area could have a material adverse effect on the occupancy, average daily rate (“ADR”) and revenue per available room (“RevPAR”) of the Company’s hotels in that area. In addition, increases in operating costs due to inflation may not be offset by increased room rates.

Qualification as a REIT

The rules governing a REIT are highly technical and complex. They require ongoing compliance with a variety of tests that depend on, among other things, future operations. While the Company expects to satisfy these tests, it cannot ensure it will qualify as a REIT for any particular year. There is also the risk that the applicable laws governing a REIT could be changed, which could adversely affect the Company and its shareholders.

PART II

 

Item 5. Market For Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

Common Shares

There is currently no established public market in which the Company’s common shares are traded. As of December 31, 2006, there were 89,773,345 Units outstanding. The per-share estimated market value is deemed to be the offering price of the shares, which is currently $11.00 per share. This is supported by the fact that the Company is currently selling shares to the public at a price of $11.00 per share through its Dividend Reinvestment Plan and the Company is repurchasing shares at $11.00 from shareholders. The Units are held by approximately 22,000 beneficial shareholders.

Dividend Reinvestment Plan

In February 2006, the Company instituted a Dividend Reinvestment Plan for its shareholders. The plan provides a convenient and cost effective way to increase shareholder investment in the Company by reinvesting dividends to purchase additional Units of the Company. The uses of the proceeds from this plan may include purchasing Units under the Company’s Unit Redemption Program, enhancing properties, satisfying financing obligations and other expenses, increasing working capital, funding various corporate operations, and acquiring hotels. As of December 31, 2006, approximately 2.0 million Units, representing $22.0 million in proceeds to the Company, have been issued under the plan.

Unit Redemption Program

In July 2005, the Company instituted a Unit Redemption Program to provide limited interim liquidity to its shareholders who have held their Units for at least one year. Shareholders may request redemption of Units for a purchase price equal to the lesser of: (1) the purchase price per Unit that the shareholder actually paid for the Unit; or (2) $11.00 per Unit. The Company reserves the right to change the purchase price of redemptions, reject any request for redemption, or otherwise amend the terms of, suspend, or terminate the Unit Redemption Program. As of December 31, 2006, the Company has redeemed 3.4 million Units in the amount of $36.7 million under the program. The following is a summary of redemptions during the fourth quarter of 2006:

Series A Preferred Shares

The Series A preferred shares have no voting rights and no conversion rights. In addition, the Series A preferred shares are not separately tradable from the common shares to which they relate. The Series A preferred shares do not have any distribution rights except a priority distribution upon the sale of the Company’s assets. The priority distribution (“Priority Distribution”) will be equal to $11.00 per Series A preferred share, and will be paid before any distribution will be made to the holders of any other shares. Upon the Priority Distribution, the Series A preferred shares will have no other distribution rights.

Table of Contents

Series B Convertible Preferred Shares

The Company currently has 240,000 Series B convertible preferred shares issued and outstanding, all owned by Glade M. Knight, the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. There are no dividends payable on the Series B convertible preferred shares. Holders of more than two-thirds of the Series B convertible preferred shares must approve any proposed amendment to the Articles of Incorporation that would adversely affect the Series B convertible preferred shares. Upon liquidation, each holder of the Series B convertible preferred shares is entitled to a priority liquidation payment. However, the priority liquidation payment of the holder of the Series B convertible preferred shares is junior to the holders of the Series A preferred shares distribution rights. The holder of a Series B convertible preferred share is entitled to a liquidation payment of $11 per number of common shares into which each Series B convertible preferred share would convert. In the event that the liquidation of the Company’s assets results in proceeds that exceed the distribution rights of the Series A preferred shares and the Series B convertible preferred shares, the remaining proceeds will be distributed between the common shares and the Series B convertible preferred shares, on an as converted basis. The Series B convertible preferred shares are convertible into Units upon and for 180 days following the occurrence of any of the following events: (1) substantially all of the Company’s assets, stock or business is transferred as a going concern, whether through exchange, merger, consolidation, lease, share exchange or otherwise, other than a sale of assets in liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company’s business; or (2) the termination or expiration without renewal of the advisory agreement with Apple Six Advisors, Inc., or if the Company ceases to use Apple Six Realty Group, Inc. to provide property acquisition and disposition services; or (3) the Company’s common shares are listed on any securities exchange or quotation system or in any established market.

Preferred Shares

The Company’s articles of incorporation authorize issuance of up to 15 million additional preferred shares. No preferred shares other than the Series A preferred shares and the Series B convertible preferred shares (discussed above) have been issued. The Company believes that the authorization to issue additional preferred shares benefits the Company and its shareholders by permitting flexibility in financing additional growth, giving the Company additional financing options in corporate planning and in responding to developments in business, including financing of additional acquisitions and other general corporate purposes. Having authorized preferred shares available for issuance in the future gives the Company the ability to respond to future developments and allows preferred shares to be issued without the expense and delay of a special shareholders’ meeting. At present, the Company has no specific financing or acquisition plans involving the issuance of additional preferred shares and the Company does not propose to fix the characteristics of any series of preferred shares in anticipation of issuing preferred shares other than the Series A preferred shares and Series B convertible preferred shares discussed above. The Company cannot now predict whether or to what extent, if any, additional preferred shares will be used or if so used what the characteristics of a particular series may be. The voting rights and rights to distributions of the holders of common shares will be subject to the prior rights of the holders of any subsequently-issued preferred shares. Unless otherwise required by applicable law or regulation, the preferred shares would be issuable without further authorization by holders of the common shares and on such terms and for such consideration as may be determined by the board of directors. The preferred shares could be issued in one or more series having varying voting rights, redemption and conversion features, distribution (including liquidating distribution) rights and preferences, and other rights, including rights of approval of specified transactions. A series of preferred shares could be given rights that are superior to rights of holders of common shares and a series having preferential distribution rights could limit common share distributions and reduce the amount holders of common shares would otherwise receive on dissolution.

Distribution Policy

To maintain its REIT status the Company is required to distribute at least 90% of its ordinary income. Distributions in 2006 totaled $78.0 million and were paid monthly at a rate of $0.073 per common share. Distributions in 2005 totaled $48.9 million and were paid monthly at a rate of $0.073 per common share. The

timing and amounts of distributions to shareholders are within the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors. The amount and frequency of future distributions will depend on the Company’s results of operations, cash flow from operations, economic conditions, working capital requirements, cash requirements to fund investing and financing activities, capital expenditure requirements, including improvements to and expansions of properties and the acquisition of additional properties, as well as the distribution requirements under federal income tax provisions for qualification as a REIT.

Non-Employee Directors Stock Option Plan and Incentive Plan

The Company’s board of directors has adopted and the Company’s shareholders have approved a Non-Employee Directors Stock Option Plan and an Incentive Plan. The options issued under each plan convert to Units. Each Unit is equal to one common share and one Series A preferred share of the Company. As of December 31, 2006, options to purchase 144,172 Units were outstanding with a weighted average exercise price of $11 per Unit. The following is a summary of securities issued under the plans as of December 31, 2006:

Item 7. Management’s Discussion And Analysis Of Financial Condition And Results Of Operations

This Annual Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance, or achievements of the Company to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the ability of the Company to implement its acquisition strategy and operating strategy; the Company’s ability to manage planned growth; changes in economic cycles and competition within the hotel industry. Although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate, and therefore there can be no assurance that such statements included in this Annual Report will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the results or conditions described in such statements or the objectives and plans of the Company will be achieved. In addition, the Company’s qualification as a real estate investment trust involves the application of highly technical and complex provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Readers should carefully review the Company’s financial statements and the notes thereto, as well as the risk factors described in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and Item 1A.

General

The Company was formed and initially capitalized on January 20, 2004, with its first investor closing on April 23, 2004. The Company owns 67 hotels within different markets in the United States. The Company is treated as a Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”) for federal income tax purposes. The Company’s first hotel was acquired on May 28, 2004, with 11 total hotels purchased in 2004, an additional 51 hotels purchased throughout 2005, and an additional 5 hotels purchased throughout 2006. Accordingly, the results of operations include only the results of operations of the hotels for the period owned. Although hotel performance can be influenced by many factors including local competition, local and general economic conditions in the United States and the performance of individual managers assigned to each hotel, performance of the hotels, in general, has met the Company’s expectations for the period owned. In evaluating financial condition and operating performance, the most important matters on which the Company focuses are revenue measurements, such as average occupancy, average daily rate (“ADR”) and revenue per available room (“RevPAR”), and expenses, such as hotel operating expenses, general and administrative and other expenses described below. The following is a summary of results.

The Company leased all of its hotels to wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiaries (collectively, the “lessee”) under master hotel lease agreements. The Company also used the proceeds of its offering to pay 2% of the gross purchase price for these hotels, which equals approximately $16.6 million, as a commission to Apple Six Realty Group, Inc. (“ASRG”). ASRG is owned by the Company’s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President, Glade M. Knight.

The Company assumed approximately $54.1 million of debt secured by 14 of the properties. The following table summarizes the hotel, interest rate, maturity date and the principal amount assumed associated with each mortgage. All dollar amounts are in thousands.

Management and Franchise Agreements

Each of the Company’s 67 hotels are operated and managed, under separate management agreements, by affiliates of one of the following companies: Marriott, Stonebridge, Hilton, Western, LBA, WLS, or Inn Ventures. The agreements provide for initial terms ranging from 2 to 30 years. Fees associated with the agreements generally include the payment of base management fees, incentive management fees, accounting fees, and other fees for centralized services which are allocated among all of the hotels that receive the benefit of such services. Base management fees are calculated as a percentage of gross revenues. Incentive management fees are calculated as a percentage of operating profit in excess of a priority return to the Company, as defined in the management agreements. The Company has the option to terminate the management agreements if specified performance thresholds are not satisfied. During the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 the Company incurred approximately $8.7 and $3.2 million in management fees.

Stonebridge, Western, LBA, WLS, and Inn Ventures are not affiliated with either Marriott or Hilton, and as a result, these hotels were required to obtain separate franchise agreements with each respective franchisor. The Hilton franchise agreements generally provide for a term of 13 to 20 years. Fees associated with the Hilton agreements generally include the payment of royalty fees and program fees based on room revenues. The Marriott franchise agreements provide for an initial term of 15 to 20 years. Fees associated with the Marriott agreements include the payment of royalty fees, marketing fees, reservation fees and a communications support fee based on room revenues. During the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 the Company incurred approximately $9.0 and $4.0 million in franchise fees.

Results of Operations

During the period from January 20, 2004 to May 27, 2004, the Company owned no properties, had no revenue and was engaged in initial capital-raising activities. During this period, the Company incurred miscellaneous start-up costs and interest expense related to an unsecured line of credit. Operations did not commence until May 28, 2004, when the Company purchased its first hotel in Ft. Worth, Texas and ended 2004 with 11 hotels. The Company purchased an additional 51 hotels throughout 2005 and five more in 2006. As a result, year-to-year comparisons of results for 2005 to 2004 would not be meaningful.

In general, performance at the Company’s hotels have met expectations for the period held. Hotel performance is impacted by many factors including economic conditions in the United States, as well as each locality. As a result, there can be no assurance that the Company’s operating performance will continue to meet expectations in the future.

Revenues

The Company’s principal source of revenue is hotel room revenue and other related revenue. Hotel operations are for the 67 hotels acquired through December 31, 2006 for their respective periods owned. For the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, the Company had total revenue of $236 and $102 million, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, the hotels achieved average occupancy of 74.5% and 71.1%, average daily rate, or ADR of $105 and $101 and revenue per available room, or RevPAR of $78 and $72. ADR is calculated as room revenue divided by the number of rooms sold, and RevPAR is calculated as occupancy multiplied by ADR. These rates are consistent with industry and brand averages. The industry and the Company have seen RevPAR increases due to increases in demand exceeding increases in supply of hotel rooms in the markets where the Company’s hotels are located. The Company continually works with the hotel managers to maximize rates and anticipates continued growth in 2007.

Expenses

Expenses for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 represented the expenses related to the 67 hotels acquired through December 31, 2006 for their respective periods owned.

For the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, hotel operating expenses totaled $135.6 and $59.9 million, or 57% of total revenue in 2006 and 59% of total revenue in 2005. This percentage has decreased as revenues for newly opened properties have increased and ADR has increased.

Taxes, insurance, and other expenses for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 were $13.5 and $5.3 million, or 6% of total revenue in 2006 and 5% of total revenue in 2005. The increase as a percentage of revenue was driven by higher property insurance rates. As many of the properties acquired by the Company in the previous 12 months were newly constructed, the Company expects a slight increase in property taxes in the next year.

General and administrative expense for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 was $5.4 and $3.5 million, or 2% of total revenue in 2006 and 3% of total revenue in 2005. The decrease as a percentage of revenue resulted from the growth of the Company’s asset base. The Company anticipates this percentage to remain consistent now that the Company has substantially completed all of its planned acquisitions. The principal components of general and administrative expense are advisory fees, legal fees, accounting fees and reporting expense.

Depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 was $25.5 and $11.4 million. Depreciation expense represents the expense of the Company’s 67 hotels and related personal property for their respective periods owned.

 

19


Table of Contents

Interest expense for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 was $3.0 and $1.8 million. Interest expense arose from debt assumed with 14 of the hotels acquired in 2005 and 2006 and short term financing to bridge the purchase of properties and the raising of capital.

For the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, the Company had interest income of $1.2 and $3.9 million. Interest income represents earnings on excess cash invested in short term money market instruments, pending investment in hotel properties.

Related Party Transactions

The Company has significant transactions with related parties. These transactions cannot be construed to be arms length, and the results of the Company’s operations may be different if these transactions were conducted with non-related parties.

The Company has a contract with ASRG, a related party, to provide brokerage services for the acquisition and disposition of the Company’s real estate assets. In accordance with the contract, ASRG is paid a fee of 2% of the gross purchase price of any acquisitions or gross sale price of any dispositions of real estate investments, subject to certain conditions. As of December 31, 2006, total payments to ASRG for services under the terms of this contract were $16.6 million, which was capitalized as a part of the purchase price of the hotels.

The Company is party to an advisory agreement with Apple Six Advisors, Inc. (“ASA”), pursuant to which ASA provides management services to the Company. An annual fee ranging from .1% to .25% of total equity proceeds received by the Company, in addition to certain reimbursable expenses, are payable for these services. ASA utilizes Apple Hospitality Two, Inc. (“AHT”) to provide these services. Expenses related to ASA in 2006, 2005 and 2004 were approximately $3.5, $1.6 and $0.4 million, respectively.

During 2006 the Company assigned its rights under four contracts for the purchase of hotels in Houston, TX, Brownsville, TX, Miami, FL and Stafford, TX to Apple REIT Seven, Inc. The assignments were completed with no cost or profit to the Company and were entered into to prevent the Company from incurring secured debt to complete its planned property acquisitions.

Including ASRG and ASA discussed above, Mr. Knight is also Chairman and CEO of Apple Hospitality Two, Inc. (a hospitality REIT), Apple Hospitality Five, Inc. (a hospitality REIT) and Apple REIT Seven, Inc. (a diversified REIT). The Company’s Board of Directors are also on the board of Apple Hospitality Two, Inc. and Apple Hospitality Five, Inc.

The Company has issued 240,000 Series B convertible preferred shares to Mr. Knight in exchange for the payment by him of $0.10 per Series B convertible preferred share, or an aggregate of $24,000. The Series B convertible preferred shares are convertible into common shares pursuant to the formula and on the terms and conditions set forth below.

There are no dividends payable on the Series B convertible preferred shares. Holders of more than two-thirds of the Series B convertible preferred shares must approve any proposed amendment to the articles of incorporation that would adversely affect the Series B convertible preferred shares.

Upon the Company’s liquidation, the holder of the Series B convertible preferred shares is entitled to a priority liquidation payment before any distribution of liquidation proceeds to the holders of the common shares. However, the priority liquidation payment of the holder of the Series B convertible preferred shares is junior to the holders of the Series A preferred shares distribution rights. The holder of a Series B convertible preferred share is entitled to a liquidation payment of $11 per number of common shares each Series B convertible preferred share would be convertible into according to the formula described below. In the event that the liquidation of the Company’s assets results in proceeds that exceed the distribution rights of the Series A

 

20


Table of Contents

preferred shares and the Series B convertible preferred shares, the remaining proceeds will be distributed between the common shares and the Series B convertible preferred shares, on an as converted basis.

Each holder of outstanding Series B convertible preferred shares shall have the right to convert any of such shares into common shares of the Company upon and for 180 days following the occurrence of any of the following events:

(1) substantially all of the Company’s assets, stock or business is sold or transferred through exchange, merger, consolidation, lease, share exchange, sale or otherwise, other than a sale of assets in liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company;

(2) the termination or expiration without renewal of the advisory agreement with ASA, or if the Company ceases to use ASRG to provide property acquisition and disposition services; or

(3) the Company’s common shares are listed on any securities exchange or quotation system or in any established market.

Upon the occurrence of any conversion event, each Series B convertible preferred share may be converted into 24.17104 common shares. In the event that the Company raises additional gross proceeds in a subsequent public offering, each Series B convertible preferred share may be converted into an additional number of common shares based on the additional gross proceeds raised through the date of conversion in a subsequent public offering according to the following formula: (X/50 million) x 1.20568, where X is the additional gross proceeds rounded down to the nearest 50 million.

No additional consideration is due upon the conversion of the Series B convertible preferred shares. The conversion into common shares of the Series B convertible preferred shares will result in dilution of the shareholders’ interests.

Expense related to issuance of 240,000 Series B convertible preferred shares to Mr. Knight will be recognized at such time when the number of common shares to be issued for conversion of the Series B shares can be reasonably estimated and the event triggering the conversion of the Series B shares to common shares occurs. The expense will be measured as the difference between the fair value of the common stock for which the Series B shares can be converted and the amounts paid for the Series B shares. Expense if a conversion event had occurred at December 31, 2006 could range from $0 to $63.8 million (assumes $11 per Unit fair market value), which represents approximately 5.8 million shares of common stock.

Capital Requirements and Resources

Operating cash flow from the properties owned and cash on hand ($26.2 million at December 31, 2006) are the Company’s principal source of liquidity. In addition, the Company may borrow funds, subject to limitations set forth in its bylaws.

 

21


Table of Contents

The Company anticipates that cash flow, and cash on hand, will be adequate to cover substantially all of its operating expenses and to permit the Company to meet substantially all of its anticipated liquidity requirements, including distribution requirements and property acquisitions.

To maintain its REIT status the Company is required to distribute at least 90% of its ordinary income. Distributions in 2006 totaled $78.0 million and were paid monthly at a rate of $0.073 per common share and included a return of capital. For the same period the Company’s cash generated from operations was $81.4 million. The Company intends to continue paying dividends on a monthly basis at an annual rate of 8%. Since there can be no assurance of the ability of the Company’s properties to provide income at this level, there can be no assurance as to the classification or duration of distributions at the current rate.

The Company has on-going capital commitments to fund its capital improvements. The Company is required, under all of the hotel management agreements, to make available, for the repair, replacement, refurbishing of furniture, fixtures, and equipment, an amount of 3% to 5% of gross revenues provided that such amount may be used for the Company’s capital expenditures with respect to the hotels. The Company expects that this amount will be adequate to fund required repair, replacement, and refurbishments and to maintain the Company’s hotels in a competitive condition.

On March 3, 2006, the Company concluded its best-efforts offering of Units. From the Company’s initial capitalization on January 20, 2004 through March 3, 2006, the Company closed on a total of 91,125,541 Units, representing gross proceeds and proceeds net of selling, marketing fees, and other costs of approximately $1.0 billion and $898 million, respectively. These costs are reflected as a reduction to shareholders’ equity.

In February 2006, the Company instituted a Dividend Reinvestment Plan for its shareholders. The plan provides a convenient and cost effective way to increase shareholder investment in the Company by reinvesting dividends to purchase additional Units of the Company. The uses of the proceeds from this plan may include purchasing Units under the Company’s Unit Redemption Program, enhancing properties, satisfying financing obligations and other expenses, increasing working capital, funding various corporate operations, and acquiring hotels. As of December 31, 2006, approximately 2.0 million Units, representing $22.0 million in proceeds to the Company, have been issued under the plan.

In July 2005, the Company instituted a Unit Redemption Program to provide limited interim liquidity to its shareholders who have held their Units for at least one year. Shareholders may request redemption of Units for a purchase price equal to the lesser of: (1) the purchase price per Unit that the shareholder actually paid for the Unit; or (2) $11.00 per Unit. The Company reserves the right to change the purchase price of redemptions, reject any request for redemption, or otherwise amend the terms of, suspend, or terminate the Unit Redemption Program. As of December 31, 2006, the Company has redeemed 3.4 million Units in the amount of $36.7 million under the program.

The Company has entered into contracts for the purchase of two additional hotels for a total purchase price of approximately $26.2 million. Both of these hotels are under construction, with completion of one expected in mid-2007 and the other in early 2008. The contracts are subject to normal due diligence and no assurances can be given that all of the conditions to closing will be satisfied. It is anticipated substantially all of the purchase price will be paid from cash on hand.

Subsequent Events

In January 2007, the Company declared and paid $6.6 million or $.073 per common share, in a distribution to its common shareholders, of which $2.7 million or 248,342 Units were reinvested under the Company’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan.

On January 22, 2007, the Company redeemed 1,049,921 Units in the amount of $11.5 million under its Unit Redemption Program.

In February 2007, the Company declared and paid $6.5 million or $.073 per common share, in a distribution to its common shareholders, of which $2.7 million or 248,172 Units were reinvested under the Company’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan.

Impact of Inflation

Operators of hotels, in general, possess the ability to adjust room rates daily to reflect the effects of inflation. Competitive pressures may, however, limit the operators’ ability to raise room rates. Currently the Company is not experiencing any material impact from inflation.

Seasonality

The hotel industry historically has been seasonal in nature. Seasonal variations in occupancy at the Company’s hotels may cause quarterly fluctuations in its revenues. To the extent that cash flow from operations is insufficient during any quarter, due to temporary or seasonal fluctuations in revenue, the Company expects to utilize cash on hand to make distributions.

Critical Accounting Policies

The following contains a discussion of what the Company believes to be critical accounting policies. These items should be read to gain a further understanding of the principles used to prepare the Company’s financial statements. These principles include application of judgment; therefore, changes in judgments may have a significant impact on the Company’s reported results of operations and financial condition.

Capitalization Policy

The Company considers expenditures to be capital in nature based on the following criteria: (1) for a single asset, the cost must be at least $500, including all normal and necessary costs to place the asset in service, and the useful life must be at least one year; (2) for group purchases of 10 or more identical assets, the unit cost for each asset must be at least $50, including all normal and necessary costs to place the asset in service, and the useful life must be at least one year; and (3) for major repairs to buildings, the repair must be at least $2,500 and the useful life of the asset must be substantially extended.

Impairment Losses Policy

The Company records impairment losses on hotel properties used in operations if indicators of impairment are present, and the sum of the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by the respective properties are less than the properties’ carrying amounts. Impairment losses are measured as the difference between the asset’s fair value less cost to sell, and its carrying value. No impairment losses have been recorded to date.

Investment Policy

The purchase price of real estate properties acquired is allocated to the various components, such as land, buildings and improvements, intangible assets and in-place leases as appropriate, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, “Business Combinations”. The purchase price is allocated based on the fair value of each component at the time of acquisition. Generally the Company does not acquire real estate assets that have in-place leases as lease terms for hotel properties are very short term in nature. The Company has not allocated any purchase price to intangible assets such as management contracts and franchise agreements as such contracts are generally at current market rates and any other value attributable to these contracts are not considered material.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. This interpretation requires that income tax positions recognized in an entity’s tax returns have a more-likely-than-not chance of being sustained prior to recording the related tax benefit in the financial statements. Tax benefits would be derecognized if information became available which indicated that it was more-likely-than-not that the position would not be sustained. The Company will adopt this interpretation in the first quarter of 2007. The Company is evaluating the impact, if any, of this interpretation.

 

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

The Company does not engage in transactions in derivative financial instruments or derivative commodity instruments. As of December 31, 2006, the Company’s financial instruments were not exposed to significant market risk due to interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange risk, commodity price risk or equity price risk. The Company will be exposed to changes in short term money market rates as it invests its cash. Based on the Company’s cash invested at December 31, 2006, of $26.2 million, every 100 basis points change in interest rates will impact the Company’s net income by $262,000, all other factors remaining the same.

The Company has assumed fixed interest rate notes payable to lenders under permanent financing arrangements. The following table summarizes the annual maturities and average interest rates.

Report of Management

on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

March 7, 2007

To the Shareholders

Apple REIT Six, Inc.

Management of Apple REIT Six, Inc. (the “Company”) is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting and for the assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. As defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission, internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the Company’s Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is supported by written policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the Company’s transactions and dispositions of the Company’s assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and the receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the Company’s management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In connection with the preparation of the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements, management has undertaken an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO Framework). Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of those controls.

Based on this assessment, management has concluded that as of December 31, 2006, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Ernst & Young LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that audited the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in this report, has issued an attestation report on management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting, a copy of which appears on the next page of this annual report.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The Board of Directors and Shareholders

Apple REIT Six, Inc.

We have audited management’s assessment, included in the accompanying “Report of Management on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting”, that Apple REIT Six, Inc. maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria). Apple REIT Six, Inc.’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management’s assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management’s assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, management’s assessment that Apple REIT Six, Inc. maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on the COSO criteria. Also, in our opinion, Apple REIT Six, Inc. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, based on the COSO criteria.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Apple REIT Six, Inc., as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 and the period from January 20, 2004 (initial capitalization) through December 31, 2004, and our report dated March 7, 2007, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Apple REIT Six, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Apple REIT Six, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1

General Information and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

Apple REIT Six, Inc. (the “Company”) is a Virginia corporation formed to invest in real estate in select metropolitan areas in the United States. Initial capitalization occurred on January 20, 2004 and operations began on May 28, 2004 when the Company acquired its first hotel. The Company has no foreign operations or assets and its operations include only one segment. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.

The Company has elected to be treated as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for federal income tax purposes. The REIT Modernization Act, effective January 1, 2001, permits real estate investment trusts to establish taxable businesses to conduct certain previously disallowed business activities. The Company has formed wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiaries (collectively, the “Lessee”), which lease all of the Company’s hotels.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. The fair market value of cash and cash equivalents approximates their carrying value. All cash and cash equivalents are currently held at one institution, Wachovia Bank, N.A, and the balances may at times exceed federal depository insurance limits.

Investment in Hotels and Related Depreciation

The hotels are stated at cost, net of depreciation, and include real estate brokerage commissions paid to Apple Six Realty Group, Inc. (“ASRG”), a related party owned by Glade M. Knight, Chairman, CEO and President of the Company. Repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred while significant improvements, renovations, and replacements are capitalized. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of the assets, which are 39 years for buildings, ten years for major improvements and three to seven years for furniture and equipment.

The Company considers expenditures to be capital in nature based on the following criteria: (1) for a single asset, the cost must be at least $500, including all normal and necessary costs to place the asset in service, and the useful life must be at least one year; (2) for group purchases of 10 or more identical assets, the unit cost for each asset must be at least $50, including all normal and necessary costs to place the asset in service, and the useful life must be at least one year; and (3) for major repairs to buildings, the repair must be at least $2,500 and the useful life of the asset must be substantially extended.

The Company records impairment losses on hotel properties used in operations if indicators of impairment are present, and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by the respective properties are less than their carrying amount. Impairment losses are measured as the difference between the asset’s fair value less cost to sell, and its carrying value. No impairment losses have been recorded to date.

The purchase price of real estate properties acquired is allocated to the various components, such as land, buildings and improvements, intangible assets and in-place leases as appropriate, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, “Business Combinations”. The purchase price is allocated based on the fair value of each component at the time of acquisition. Generally, the Company does not acquire real estate assets that have in-place leases as lease terms for hotel properties are very short term in nature. There has been no allocation of purchase price to intangible assets such as management contracts and franchise agreements as such contracts are generally at current market rates and any other value attributable to these contracts is not considered material.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized as earned, which is generally defined as the date upon which a guest occupies a room or utilizes the hotel’s services.

Offering Costs

From the Company’s initial capitalization on January 20, 2004 through December 31, 2006, the Company incurred costs of approximately $102 million related to its best-efforts offering of Units. Each Unit is equal to one common share, no par value and one Series A preferred share of the Company. On March 3, 2006, the Company concluded its best-efforts offering, and had closed on the sale of 91,125,541 Units with total proceeds net of commissions of approximately $898 million.

Comprehensive Income

The Company recorded no comprehensive income other than net income for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 and the period from January 20, 2004 (initial capitalization) through December 31, 2004.

Earnings Per Common Share

Basic earnings per common share is computed based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated after giving effect to all potential common shares that were dilutive and outstanding for the year. There were no shares with a dilutive effect for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 and the period from January 20, 2004 (initial capitalization) through December 31, 2004. As a result, basic and dilutive outstanding shares were the same. Series B convertible preferred shares are not included in earnings per common share calculations until such time the Series B convertible preferred shares are converted to common shares (see Note 5).

Federal Income Taxes

The Company is operated as, and will annually elect to be taxed as, a REIT under Section 856 to 860 of the Internal Revenue Code. Earnings and profits, which will determine the taxability of distributions to shareholders, will differ from income reported for financial reporting purposes primarily due to the differences for federal income tax purposes in the estimated useful lives used to compute depreciation. The characterization of 2006 distributions of $0.88 per common share for tax purposes was 82% ordinary income and 18% return of capital, 2005 distributions of $0.88 per common share for tax purposes was 63% ordinary income and 37% return of capital and 2004 distributions of $0.55 per common share was 47% ordinary income and 53% return of capital (unaudited).

The Lessee, as a taxable REIT subsidiary of the Company, is subject to federal and state income taxes. The taxable REIT subsidiary incurred a loss for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 and for the period from January 20, 2004 (initial capitalization) to December 31, 2004, and therefore did not have any tax expense. No operating loss benefit has been recorded in the consolidated balance sheet since realization is uncertain. Total net operating loss carry forward for federal income tax purposes was approximately $14.6 million as of December, 31, 2006. The net operating losses expire beginning in 2024. There are no material differences between the book and tax basis of the Company’s assets.

Sales and Marketing Costs

Sales and marketing costs are expensed when incurred. These costs represent the expense for franchise advertising and reservation systems under the terms of the hotel management and franchise agreements and general and administrative expenses that are directly attributable to advertising and promotion.

Stock Incentive Plans

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, which is a revision of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation using the modified prospective transition method. Accordingly, no prior year amounts have been restated. Statement 123 (R) supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and amends FASB Statement No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows. Generally, the approach in Statement 123 (R) is similar to the approach described in Statement 123. However, Statement 123 (R) requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. The adoption of this statement has not had a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position. During the second quarter of 2006 the Company issued approximately 72,000 directors’ stock options and share-based expense of approximately $69,000 was recorded.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Summary of Significant Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. This interpretation requires that income tax positions recognized in an entity’s tax returns have a more-likely-than-not chance of being sustained prior to recording the related tax benefit in the financial statements. Tax benefits would be derecognized if information became available which indicated that it was more-likely-than-not that the position would not be sustained. The Company will adopt this interpretation in the first quarter of 2007. The Company is evaluating the impact, if any, of this interpretation.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

 

The Company leased all of its hotels to wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiaries (collectively, the “lessee”) under master hotel lease agreements. The Company also used the proceeds of its offering to pay 2% of the gross purchase price for these hotels, which equals approximately $16.6 million, as a commission to ASRG.

No goodwill or intangible assets were recorded in connection with any of the acquisitions.

As there can be no assurance that all conditions to closing will be satisfied, the Company includes deposits for hotels under contract in “Other assets, net” in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and in “Cash paid for potential acquisition of hotels” in its Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Note 3

Other Assets

On January 25, 2006, the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Apple Six Hospitality Air, LLC, purchased a Lear 40XR jet. The jet will be used mainly for renovation and asset management purposes. The purchase price was approximately $8.3 million. The asset is depreciated on a straight-line basis over a useful life of ten years. For the year ended December 31, 2006, the Company recorded depreciation expense in the amount of approximately $848,000.

Note 4

Notes Payable and Credit Agreements

In conjunction with the acquisition of five hotels in December 2005, the Company utilized short-term unsecured financing from a commercial bank in the amount of $40 million to fund a portion of the aggregate gross purchase price. This financing was evidenced by a promissory note and was governed by a loan agreement. The outstanding principal at December 31, 2005 was $28 million, and the note was repaid and extinguished on January 24, 2006.

The Company has also assumed approximately $54.1 million of debt secured by a first mortgage on 14 of its properties. The following table summarizes the hotel, interest rate, maturity date and the principal amount assumed associated with each mortgage. All dollar amounts are in thousands.

Shareholders’ Equity

The Company concluded its best-efforts offering of Units on March 3, 2006. The Company registered its Units on Registration Statement Form S-11 (File No. 333-112169) filed April 20, 2004. The Company began its best-efforts offering (the “Offering”) of Units on April 23, 2004, the same day the Registration Statement was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Each Unit consists of one common share and one Series A preferred share.

The Series A preferred shares have no voting rights and no conversion rights. In addition, the Series A preferred shares are not separately tradable from the common shares to which they relate. The Series A preferred shares do not have any distribution rights except a priority distribution upon the sale of the Company’s assets. The priority distribution (“Priority Distribution”) will be equal to $11.00 per Series A preferred share, and will be paid before any distribution will be made to the holders of any other shares. Upon the Priority Distribution the Series A preferred shares will have no other distribution rights.

The Company has issued 240,000 Series B convertible preferred shares to Glade M. Knight, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company, in exchange for the payment by him of $0.10 per Series B convertible preferred share, or an aggregate of $24,000. The Series B convertible preferred shares are convertible into common shares pursuant to the formula and on the terms and conditions set forth below.

There are no dividends payable on the Series B convertible preferred shares. Holders of more than two-thirds of the Series B convertible preferred shares must approve any proposed amendment to the articles of incorporation that would adversely affect the Series B convertible preferred shares.

Upon the Company’s liquidation, the holder of the Series B convertible preferred shares is entitled to a priority liquidation payment before any distribution of liquidation proceeds to the holders of the common shares. However, the priority liquidation payment of the holder of the Series B convertible preferred shares is junior to

Table of Contents

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

 

the holders of the Series A preferred shares distribution rights. The holder of a Series B convertible preferred share is entitled to a liquidation payment of $11 per number of common shares each Series B convertible preferred share would be convertible into according to the formula described below. In the event that the liquidation of the Company’s assets results in proceeds that exceed the distribution rights of the Series A preferred shares and the Series B convertible preferred shares, the remaining proceeds will be distributed between the common shares and the Series B convertible preferred shares, on an as converted basis.

Each holder of outstanding Series B convertible preferred shares shall have the right to convert any of such shares into common shares of the Company upon and for 180 days following the occurrence of any of the following events:

(1) substantially all of the Company’s assets, stock or business is sold or transferred through exchange, merger, consolidation, lease, share exchange, sale or otherwise, other than a sale of assets in liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company;

(2) the termination or expiration without renewal of the advisory agreement with Apple Six Advisors, Inc. (“ASA”), or if the Company ceases to use ASRG to provide property acquisition and disposition services; or

(3) the Company’s common shares are listed on any securities exchange or quotation system or in any established market.

Upon the occurrence of any conversion event, each Series B convertible preferred share may be converted into 24.17104 common shares. In the event that the Company raises additional gross proceeds in a subsequent public offering, each Series B convertible preferred share may be converted into an additional number of common shares based on the additional gross proceeds raised through the date of conversion in a subsequent public offering according to the following formula: (X/50 million) x 1.20568, where X is the additional gross proceeds rounded down to the nearest 50 million.

No additional consideration is due upon the conversion of the Series B convertible preferred shares. The conversion into common shares of the Series B convertible preferred shares will result in dilution of the shareholders’ interests.

Expense related to issuance of 240,000 Series B convertible preferred shares to Mr. Knight will be recognized at such time when the number of common shares to be issued for conversion of the Series B shares can be reasonably estimated and the event triggering the conversion of the Series B shares to common shares occurs. The expense will be measured as the difference between the fair value of the common stock for which the Series B shares can be converted and the amounts paid for the Series B shares. If a conversion event had occurred at December 31, 2006, expense would have ranged from $0 to $63.8 million (assumes $11 per Unit fair market value), which represents approximately 5.8 million shares of common stock.

In July 2005, the Company instituted a Unit Redemption Program to provide limited interim liquidity to its shareholders who have held their Units for at least one year. Shareholders may request redemption of Units for a purchase price equal to the lesser of: (1) the purchase price per Unit that the shareholder actually paid for the Unit; or (2) $11.00 per Unit. The Company reserves the right to change the purchase price of redemptions, reject any request for redemption, or otherwise amend the terms of, suspend, or terminate the Unit Redemption Program. As of December 31, 2006, the Company has redeemed 3.4 million Units in the amount of $36.7 million under the program.

In February 2006, the Company instituted a Dividend Reinvestment Plan for its shareholders. The plan provides a convenient and cost effective way to increase shareholder investment in the Company by reinvesting

dividends to purchase additional Units of the Company. The uses of the proceeds from this plan may include purchasing Units under the Company’s Unit Redemption Program, enhancing properties, satisfying financing obligations and other expenses, increasing working capital, funding various corporate operations, and acquiring hotels. As of December 31, 2006, approximately 2.0 million Units, representing $22.0 million in proceeds to the Company, have been issued under the plan.

The Company’s articles of incorporation authorize issuance of up to 15 million additional preferred shares. No preferred shares other than the Series A preferred shares and the Series B convertible preferred shares (discussed above) have been issued. The Company believes that the authorization to issue additional preferred shares benefits the Company and its shareholders by permitting flexibility in financing additional growth, giving the Company additional financing options in corporate planning and in responding to developments in business, including financing of additional acquisitions and other general corporate purposes. Having authorized preferred shares available for issuance in the future gives the Company the ability to respond to future developments and allows preferred shares to be issued without the expense and delay of a special shareholders’ meeting. At present, the Company has no specific financing or acquisition plans involving the issuance of additional preferred shares and the Company does not propose to fix the characteristics of any series of preferred shares in anticipation of issuing preferred shares other than the Series A preferred shares and Series B convertible preferred shares discussed above. The Company cannot now predict whether or to what extent, if any, additional preferred shares will be used or if so used what the characteristics of a particular series may be. The voting rights and rights to distributions of the holders of common shares will be subject to the prior rights of the holders of any subsequently-issued preferred shares. Unless otherwise required by applicable law or regulation, the preferred shares would be issuable without further authorization by holders of the common shares and on such terms and for such consideration as may be determined by the board of directors. The preferred shares could be issued in one or more series having varying voting rights, redemption and conversion features, distribution (including liquidating distribution) rights and preferences, and other rights, including rights of approval of specified transactions. A series of preferred shares could be given rights that are superior to rights of holders of common shares and a series having preferential distribution rights could limit common share distributions and reduce the amount holders of common shares would otherwise receive on dissolution.

Note 6

Stock Incentive Plans

On January 20, 2004, the Board of Directors approved a Non-Employee Directors Stock Option Plan (the “Directors Plan”) whereby directors, who are not employees of the Company or affiliates, automatically receive the option to purchase Units. Under the Directors Plan, the number of Units authorized for issuance is equal to 45,000 plus 1.8% of the number of Units sold in excess of the minimum offering of 4,761,905 Units. This plan currently relates to the initial public offering of 91,125,541 Units. Therefore, the maximum number of Units authorized under the Directors Plan is currently 1,599,545 based on the number of shares issued as of December 31, 2006. The options expire 10 years from the date of grant.

On January 20, 2004, the Board of Directors approved an Incentive Stock Option Plan (the “Incentive Plan”) whereby incentive awards may be granted to certain employees of the Company or affiliates. Under the Incentive Plan, the number of Units authorized for issuance is equal to 35,000 plus 4.625% of the number of Units sold in the initial offering in excess of 4,761,905. This plan also currently relates to the initial public offering of 91,125,541 Units. Therefore, the maximum number of Units that can be issued under the Incentive Plan is currently 4,029,318 based on the number of shares issued as of December 31, 2006.

Both plans generally provide, among other things, that options be granted at exercise prices not lower than the market value of the Units on the date of grant. The options expire 10 years from the date of the grant. During

2006, 2005 and 2004, the Company granted options to purchase 71,948, 42,676 and 29,548 Units, respectively, under the Directors Plan. All of the options issued vested at the date of issuance, and have an exercise price of $11 per Unit. The Company granted no options under the Incentive Plan during 2006, 2005 and 2004. Activity in the Company’s share option plan during 2006, 2005 and 2004 is summarized in the following table (in thousands except per share data):

Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company used the intrinsic value method, as defined by APB 25, to account for stock-based compensation. This method required compensation expense to be recognized for the excess of the quoted market price of the stock at the grant date or the measurement date over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. Beginning January 1, 2006, the Company adopted FASB Statement No. 123(R) under the modified prospective transition method and recorded $69,000 of share-based expense for the 71,948 options issued during the year.

Management and Franchise Agreements

Each of the Company’s 67 hotels are operated and managed, under separate management agreements, by affiliates of one of the following companies (indicates the number of hotels managed): Marriott International, Inc. (“Marriott”) (3), Stonebridge Reality Advisors, Inc (“Stonebridge”) (11), Hilton Hotels Corporation (“Hilton”) (5), Western International (“Western”) (10), Larry Blumberg & Associates (“LBA”) (19), White Lodging Services Corporation (“WLS”) (8), or Inn Ventures, Inc. (“Inn Ventures”) (11). The agreements provide for initial terms ranging from 2 to 30 years. Fees associated with the agreements generally include the payment of base management fees, incentive management fees, accounting fees, and other fees for centralized services which are allocated among all of the hotels that receive the benefit of such services. Base management fees are calculated as a percentage of gross revenues. Incentive management fees are calculated as a percentage of operating profit in excess of a priority return to the Company, as defined in the management agreements. The Company has the option to terminate the management agreements if specified performance thresholds are not satisfied. During the period ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 the Company incurred approximately $8.7, $3.2 and $0.5 million in management fees, respectively.

Stonebridge, Western, LBA, WLS, and Inn Ventures are not affiliated with either Marriott or Hilton, and as a result, the hotels managed by these companies were required to obtain separate franchise agreements with each respective franchisor. The Hilton franchise agreements generally provide for a term of 13 to 20 years. Fees associated with the Hilton agreements generally include the payment of royalty fees and program fees based on room revenues. The Marriott franchise agreements provide for an initial term of 15 to 20 years. Fees associated with the Marriott agreements include the payment of royalty fees, marketing fees, reservation fees and a communications support fee based on room revenues. During the period ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 the Company incurred approximately $9.0, $4.0 and $0.4 million in franchise fees.

Related Parties

The Company has significant transactions with related parties. These transactions cannot be construed to be arms length, and the results of the Company’s operations may be different if these transactions were conducted with non-related parties.

The Company has a contract with ASRG, a related party, to provide brokerage services for the acquisition and disposition of the Company’s real estate assets. In accordance with the contract, ASRG is paid a fee of 2% of the gross purchase price of any acquisitions or gross sale price of any dispositions of real estate investments, subject to certain conditions. As of December 31, 2006, total payments to ASRG for services under the terms of this contract were $16.6 million, which was capitalized as a part of the purchase price of the hotels.

The Company is party to an advisory agreement with Apple Six Advisors, Inc. (“ASA”), pursuant to which ASA provides management services to the Company. An annual fee ranging from .1% to .25% of total equity proceeds received by the Company, in addition to certain reimbursable expenses, are payable for these services. ASA utilizes Apple Hospitality Two, Inc. (“AHT”) to provide these services. Expenses related to ASA in 2006, 2005 and 2004 were approximately $3.5, $1.6 and $0.4 million, respectively.

During 2006 the Company assigned its rights under four contracts for the purchase of hotels in Houston, TX, Brownsville, TX, Miami, FL and Stafford, TX to Apple REIT Seven, Inc. The assignments were completed with no cost or profit to the Company and were entered into to prevent the Company from incurring secured debt to complete its planned property acquisitions.

Including ASRG and ASA discussed above, Mr. Knight is also Chairman and CEO of Apple Hospitality Two, Inc. (a hospitality REIT), Apple Hospitality Five, Inc. (a hospitality REIT) and Apple REIT Seven, Inc. (a diversified REIT). The Company’s Board of Directors are also on the board of Apple Hospitality Two, Inc. and Apple Hospitality Five, Inc.

Commitments

The Company has entered into contracts for the purchase of two additional hotels. Both of these hotels are under construction, with completion of one expected in mid-2007 and the other in early 2008.

Industry Segments

The Company owns extended-stay and limited service hotel properties throughout the United States that generate rental and other property related income. The Company separately evaluates the performance of each of its hotel properties. However, because each of the hotels have similar economic characteristics, facilities, and services, the properties have been aggregated into a single operating segment. All segment disclosures are included in, or can be derived from, the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
