FELCOR REPORTS THIRD QUARTER RESULTS
• RevPAR Growth Accelerating
• Portfolio Repositioning Continues
 
IRVING, Texas…November 3, 2010 - FelCor Lodging Trust Incorporated (NYSE: FCH) today reported operating results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2010.
 
Summary:
 
•    
Same-store revenue per available room ("RevPAR") at 82 consolidated hotels increased 6.3% for the quarter and 7.9% for September.
 
•    
Adjusted EBITDA was $48.2 million and Adjusted FFO per share was $0.00 for the quarter, which was at the high-end of our expectations.
 
•    
Hotel EBITDA margin increased 67 basis points for the quarter, driven by a 2.1% increase in average daily rate, or ADR.
 
•    
Net loss was $89.3 million for the quarter.
 
•    
Acquired the 383-room Fairmont Copley Plaza for $98.5 million, an iconic hotel located in the heart of Boston's Back Bay.
 
•    
Began marketing the first group of hotels for disposition.
 
Third Quarter Operating Results:
 
Same-store RevPAR for 82 consolidated hotels was $87.83 for the quarter, a 6.3% increase compared to the same period in 2009 (excluding 14 hotels we are marketing for sale, RevPAR for our portfolio increased 6.7% during the quarter compared to the same period in 2009). RevPAR at these 82 hotels increased 7.9% during September from a 5.1% occupancy increase and a 2.7% ADR increase, compared to the same period in 2009. The RevPAR increase for the quarter was driven by a 4.2% occupancy increase to 72.7% and a 2.1% ADR increase to $120.85, compared to the same period in 2009. RevPAR increased at 61 of our hotels and in every major market, except for Orlando.
 
“The lodging industry fundamentals continue to strengthen, and we are pleased with our operating results for the quarter. While the booking window remains relatively short, group booking pace continues to improve each month, occupancy is improving and RevPAR growth is accelerating. We are taking advantage of the positive imbalance between demand and supply to remix our customer base and drive daily rates. During the quarter, ADR for our portfolio increased 2.1%, driven by a 14% increase of premium transient room nights," said Richard A. Smith, FelCor's President and Chief Executive Officer.

"We are focused on continuing to improve our overall portfolio quality, future growth rates and barriers-to-entry protection in order to increase shareholder value and return on invested capital. During the quarter, we acquired the Fairmont Copley Plaza. We have been very pleased with the performance of the hotel: RevPAR increased 14% for the hotel in September. In addition, we launched the second phase of asset sales bringing the first group of 14 hotels to market,” added Mr. Smith.
 
Third quarter Hotel EBITDA was $55.5 million, compared to $50.7 million for the same period in 2009, a 9.4% increase. Hotel EBITDA represents EBITDA generated by 82 same-store consolidated hotels prior to corporate expenses and joint venture adjustments. Hotel EBITDA margin was 23.5%, a 67 basis point increase compared to the same period in 2009. Hotel EBITDA margins were better than expectations and benefited from a 2.1% increase in ADR, but were impacted by hotel-level expenses that did not occur last year, such as salary and bonus increases. Excluding the 14 hotels that we are marketing for sale, Hotel EBITDA margin increased 102 basis points compared to 2009.
 
Adjusted EBITDA was $48.2 million, compared to $45.3 million for the same period in 2009, a 6.4% increase, and was at the high-end of our expectations.
 
Adjusted funds from operations (“FFO”) was a loss of $39,000 or $0.00 per share, compared to $9.0 million, or $0.14 per share, for the same period in 2009.
 
Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $98.5 million, or $1.04 per share, compared to $34.8 million, or $0.55 per share, for the same period in 2009. Net loss includes a $65.8 million non-cash impairment charge reflecting the reduced book values of eight of the 14 non-strategic hotels (three hotels comprise the majority of the impairment), as well as an $8.3 million gain on extinguishment of debt related to the disposition of one hotel. Prior year net loss included a $2.1 million impairment charge related to the sale of two hotels.
 
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Hotel EBITDA, Hotel EBITDA margin, FFO, Adjusted FFO and Adjusted FFO per share are all non-GAAP financial measures. See our discussion of “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” beginning on page 14 for a reconciliation of each of these measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measure and for information regarding the use, limitations and importance of these non-GAAP financial measures.
 
Balance Sheet:
 
At September 30, 2010, we had $1.6 billion of consolidated debt outstanding, with a weighted average interest rate of 7.8%, and $192.5 million of cash and cash equivalents.
 
In July, we repaid two secured loans, totaling $5.6 million bearing an average interest rate of 8.3%, that were scheduled to mature next year.
 
On September 30, the Embassy Suites Hotel in Piscataway, New Jersey was transferred to the lender in full satisfaction of the $18 million loan secured by that hotel. We recorded an $8.2 million gain on the extinguishment of that debt (which reflects the principal amount of that loan in excess of the value of that hotel as reflected on our balance sheet). The hotel generated $750,000 of EBITDA during the trailing twelve months ended September 2010. We also continue to work with the special servicer to transfer the Embassy Suites Chicago - North Shore/Deerfield to the lender in full satisfaction of the $14 million loan secured by that hotel, which matured in May 2010.

“We successfully refinanced all of our near-term debt and eliminated all of our maturity issues. We also have reduced our leverage this year and now have 10 unencumbered hotels. As a result of the recent equity offering, debt repayments and improving EBITDA, we now expect to be cash flow positive for the year after capital expenditures. Furthermore, we expect cash flow growth to accelerate significantly with the recovery and expect to reduce our leverage significantly through improved operations and using proceeds from future asset sales to repay debt. We will continue to look for additional opportunities to reduce our average interest rate, increase our flexibility and ensure adequate long-term liquidity on an economically sound basis,” said Andrew J. Welch, FelCor's Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.
 
Portfolio Management:
 
For the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2010, we spent $10 million and
$29 million, respectively, on capital improvements at our hotels (including our pro rata share of joint venture expenditures).
 
On August 17, we acquired the Fairmont Copley Plaza in Boston for $98.5 million from an affiliate of Fairmont Hotels & Resorts ("Fairmont"). This world-class icon is located on Copley Square in the heart of Boston's Back Bay neighborhood. The property has 383 guest rooms and suites and 23,000 square feet of meeting space. For the quarter, RevPAR for this hotel increased 8.6% and hotel EBITDA increased 33%, compared to the same period in 2009.
 
As part of our long-term strategic plan, we have begun a second phase of asset sales. During the third quarter, we began marketing the first 14 hotels, of which 11 are suburban or airport locations, and seven are located in Texas, Florida and Georgia. Additional hotels will be brought to market based on various factors and we will sell hotels only when we receive adequate pricing.
 
Outlook:
 
The lodging industry recovery is taking hold and RevPAR growth is accelerating, reflecting improved corporate transient and group demand and moderating supply growth. We expect this trend to continue, and also for our portfolio to maintain its superior market share as a result of our high-quality, diversified and renovated portfolio. Additionally, our hotels are affected less by new supply growth because the average number of rooms under construction in our markets is lower than the industry as a whole.
 
For 2010, we anticipate:
 
RevPAR to increase between 3.75% and 4.5%;
 
Adjusted EBITDA to be between $182 million and $185 million;
 
Adjusted FFO per share to be between $(0.17) and $(0.13);
 
Net loss attributable to FelCor to be between $163 million and $160 million; and
 
Interest expense to be approximately $144 million.
 
Capital expenditures to be approximately $42 million.
 
Weighted average shares and units to be 80.9 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
 
We refer in this release to certain “non-GAAP financial measures.” These measures, including FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin, are measures of our financial performance that are not calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The following tables reconcile each of these non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measure. Immediately following the reconciliations, we include a discussion of why we believe these measures are useful supplemental measures of our performance and the limitations of such measures.

Substantially all of our non-current assets consist of real estate. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, most industry investors consider supplemental measures of performance, which are not measures of operating performance under GAAP, to be helpful in evaluating a real estate company's operations. These supplemental measures, including FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin, are not measures of operating performance under GAAP. However, we consider these non-GAAP measures to be supplemental measures of a hotel REIT's performance and should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income (loss) attributable to FelCor as a measure of our operating performance.
 
FFO and EBITDA
 
The White Paper on Funds From Operations approved by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), defines FFO as net income or loss attributable to parent (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by NAREIT. This may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do.
 
EBITDA is a commonly used measure of performance in many industries. We define EBITDA as net income or loss attributable to parent (computed in accordance with GAAP) plus interest expenses, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect EBITDA on the same basis.
 
Adjustments to FFO and EBITDA
 
We adjust FFO and EBITDA when evaluating our performance because management believes that the exclusion of certain additional recurring and non-recurring items, including but not limited to these described below, provides useful supplemental information to investors regarding our ongoing operating performance and that the presentation of Adjusted FFO, and Adjusted EBITDA when combined with GAAP net income attributable to FelCor, EBITDA and FFO, is beneficial to an investor's better understanding of our operating performance.
 
•    Gains and losses related to extinguishment of debt and interest rate swaps - We exclude gains and losses related to extinguishment of debt and interest rate swaps from FFO and EBITDA because we believe that it is not indicative of ongoing operating performance of our hotel assets. This also represents an acceleration of interest expense or a reduction of interest expense, and interest expense is excluded from EBITDA.
 
•    Impairment losses - We exclude the effect of impairment losses and gains or losses on disposition of assets in computing Adjusted FFO and Adjusted EBITDA because we believe that including these is not consistent with reflecting the ongoing performance of our remaining assets. Additionally, we believe that impairment charges and gains or losses on disposition of assets represent accelerated depreciation, or excess depreciation, and depreciation is excluded from FFO by the NAREIT definition and from EBITDA.

FelCor Lodging Trust Incorporated Third Quarter 2010 Operating Results
November 3, 2010
Page 22

•    Cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle - Infrequently, the Financial Accounting Standards Board promulgates new accounting standards that require the consolidated statements of operations to reflect the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. We exclude these one-time adjustments in computing Adjusted FFO and Adjusted EBITDA because they do not reflect our actual performance for that period.
 
In addition, to derive Adjusted EBITDA we exclude gains or losses on the sale of depreciable assets because we believe that including them in EBITDA is not consistent with reflecting the ongoing performance of our remaining assets. Additionally, the gain or loss on sale of depreciable assets represents either accelerated depreciation or excess depreciation in previous periods, and depreciation is excluded from EBITDA.
 
Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA Margin
 
Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin are commonly used measures of performance in the hotel industry and give investors a more complete understanding of the operating results over which our individual hotels and operating managers have direct control. We believe that Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin are useful to investors by providing greater transparency with respect to two significant measures used by us in our financial and operational decision-making. Additionally, using these measures facilitates comparisons with other hotel REITs and hotel owners. We present Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin by eliminating from continuing operations all revenues and expenses not directly associated with hotel operations including but not limited to corporate-level expenses; impairment losses; gains or losses on disposition of assets; and gains and losses related to extinguishment of debt. We eliminate corporate-level costs and expenses because we believe property-level results provide investors with supplemental information into the ongoing operational performance of our hotels and the effectiveness of management on a property-level basis. We exclude the effect of impairment losses, gains or losses on disposition of assets, and gains or losses related to extinguishment of debt because we believe that including these is not consistent with reflecting the ongoing performance of our remaining assets. We also eliminate consolidated percentage rent paid to unconsolidated entities, which is effectively eliminated by noncontrolling interests and equity in income from unconsolidated subsidiaries, and include the cost of unconsolidated taxes, insurance and lease expense, to reflect the entire operating costs applicable to our hotels. Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margins are presented on a same-store basis.
 
Limitations of Non-GAAP Measures
 
Our management and Board of Directors use FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin to evaluate the performance of our hotels and to facilitate comparisons between us and lodging REITs, hotel owners who are not REITs and other capital intensive companies. We use Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin in evaluating hotel-level performance and the operating efficiency of our hotel managers.
 
The use of these non-GAAP financial measures has certain limitations. FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin, as presented by us, may not be comparable to the same measures as calculated by other real estate companies. These measures do not reflect certain expenses that we incurred and will incur, such as depreciation and interest or capital expenditures. Management compensates for these limitations by separately considering the impact of these excluded items to the extent they are material to operating decisions or assessments of our operating performance. Our reconciliations to the GAAP financial measures, and our consolidated statements of operations and cash flows, include interest expense, capital expenditures, and other excluded items, all of which should be considered when evaluating our performance, as well as, the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures.

These non-GAAP financial measures are used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. They should not be considered as alternatives to operating profit, cash flow from operations, or any other operating performance measure prescribed by GAAP. Neither should FFO, Adjusted FFO, Adjusted FFO per share, EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA be considered as measures of our liquidity or indicative of funds available for our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions. Adjusted FFO per share should not be used as a measure of amounts that accrue directly to the benefit of stockholders. FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA margin reflect additional ways of viewing our operations that we believe when viewed with our GAAP results and the reconciliations to the corresponding GAAP financial measures provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business than could be obtained absent this disclosure. Management strongly encourages investors to review our financial information in its entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.
