"Improving demand trends during the first quarter exceeded our expectations, with rising confidence in travel as vaccination rates improved and travel restrictions eased. Same-Property Hotel EBITDA in March turned positive due to robust pent-up leisure demand throughout the portfolio. This rapid turnaround is a remarkable accomplishment considering the currently low levels of business transient and group hotel demand. The improvements in operating trends allowed us to reopen 10 more hotels since the end of February, including 7 in San Francisco, and one each in Boston, Portland, and Washington, D.C. As we look forward, we are encouraged with the increased booking activity we are experiencing, which we expect to strengthen further as we near the traditional peak leisure summer season. These accelerating trends should allow us to return to profitability earlier in the second half of this year than we expected just 45 days ago. We are also pleased to report the successful sale of the Sir Francis Drake Hotel in San Francisco, California, generating $157.6 million of net proceeds and a taxable gain of approximately $60.0 million. Strategically, we anticipate reallocating the proceeds from recent property dispositions into new acquisition opportunities that we expect will generate enhanced growth opportunities for our shareholders as they may become available.” -Jon E.

(2) Represents properties at which operations were not temporarily suspended for more than half of each respective month. “The operating and financial performance of our hotels and resorts improved dramatically each month sequentially through the first quarter of 2021, and this positive trend has continued into April,” noted Mr. Bortz. “Our resorts continued to outperform within our portfolio due to strong leisure demand from an extended spring break season combined with pent-up travel demand. Our South Florida resorts achieved room rates, total revenues and Hotel EBITDA that surpassed comparable 2019 levels for March, and similar trends are continuing in April. As vaccine distribution expands, we expect travel to continue to increase. Our hotel teams have done an exceptional job rehiring associates and rebuilding our operating teams to get them into a position to take advantage of a strengthening environment. Our asset managers have worked closely with our hotel teams to redesign our operating models and best practices. We believe this allows our hotels to be more efficient and more profitable as additional hotel demand segments return over the coming months and quarters. We expect leisure travel will increase materially with huge pent-up demand for vacations and getaways, while we continue to expect business and group travel demand will gradually improve from a very low level over the next few months. However, we are not anticipating a material recovery in business travel until after Labor Day.” During the first quarter of 2021, occupancy at the Company’s open hotels increased from 19.3 percent in January, to 26.8 percent in February, and to 34.8 percent in March. The Company’s open hotels lost ($1.8) million of Hotel EBITDA in the quarter, though the numbers dramatically improved over the course of the quarter, with March achieving $6.0 million of Hotel EBITDA. The Company’s resort portfolio, of which all 8 properties were open throughout the first quarter, generated $14.5 million of Hotel EBITDA, with an occupancy of 40.8 percent and an ADR of $406.20, a rate that was 30.1 percent higher than the first quarter of 2019. Estimated Monthly Cash Burn The Company estimates that its monthly corporate cash burn for the first quarter averaged approximately $18.0 million (excluding capital investments) based on the following: Average hotel-level monthly cash losses of approximately $5.7 million, excluding one-time expenses; Corporate-level monthly cash G&A of $1.5 million; and Corporate finance-related monthly cash utilization of $10.8 million, which includes interest payments on the Company’s outstanding debt as well as both common and preferred dividend payments. Assuming progress is made to reduce the virus's impact through mitigation measures and widespread vaccinations, the Company expects its monthly total corporate cash burn to continue to decline, and believes it could potentially reach corporate breakeven sometime in the third quarter. Capital Investments and Strategic Property Redevelopments In the first quarter of 2021, the Company completed $9.6 million of capital investments throughout its portfolio. The Company expects to invest an additional $60.0 to $80.0 million during the remainder of 2021, including for the following redevelopments and repositioning projects that the Company believes will generate significant growth and returns on its investment dollars: L’Auberge Del Mar (estimated at $10.5 million), a major redevelopment, including guestrooms and suites and a dramatic transformation and expansion of the luxury property’s public spaces, including indoor and outdoor event and meeting spaces, bars, the pool, the creation of an outdoor restaurant with ocean views, and the addition of a coffee café. The renovation is targeted for completion in May 2021; Southernmost Beach Resort (estimated at $15.0 million), a comprehensive guestroom renovation, including all case goods, soft goods, and bathrooms, including tub to shower conversions. The renovation is targeted to commence in the third quarter and be completed in the fourth quarter of 2021; Hotel Vitale (estimated at $25.0 million), a total transformation to the sustainability-focused, mission-driven, and luxury experiential 1 Hotel San Francisco, which will offer nature-inspired designs and environmentally focused aesthetics throughout guestrooms and suites, public areas, and meeting and event venues. The redevelopment is targeted to commence in the third quarter. The hotel is currently closed due to the pandemic and the Company does not plan to reopen the hotel until the redevelopment is completed at year-end; and Grafton on Sunset (estimated at $5.0 million), a comprehensive redevelopment of the hotel’s indoor and outdoor public areas and suites and a refresh of guest rooms, estimated to commence in the fourth quarter and be complete in the first quarter of 2022 when it is renamed and becomes part of the Company’s Unofficial Z Collection. As fundamentals improve, the Company will evaluate commencing additional previously planned major renovation and repositioning projects later in 2021. Update on Strategic Capital Reallocation On April 1, 2021, the Company completed the sale of the Sir Francis Drake Hotel in San Francisco, California, generating $157.6 million of net proceeds after customary closing costs. Since the second quarter of 2020, the Company has generated $222.5 million of net proceeds from property dispositions. The Company intends to strategically reallocate these proceeds into new investment opportunities that it anticipates will offer enhanced growth opportunities, as they may become available. Update on Curator Hotel and Resort Collection Curator Hotel and Resort Collection (“Curator”), a distinct collection of hand-selected small brands and independent lifestyle hotels and resorts worldwide, founded by Pebblebrook and seven industry-leading hotel operators, continued to add additional member hotels and new operating partnerships since the start of 2021. Curator now has 62 member hotels with additional member hotels being added on a weekly and monthly basis. Also, Curator announced strategic partnerships with several leading hotel supplier companies, including Avendra and Pure HD, and now has over 18 master service agreements with preferred vendor partners, with over 20 additional agreements pending. Curator also recently welcomed Sage Hospitality Group as its newest Founding Member. Sage joins a highly respected group of leading independent hotel operators, including Benchmark Global Hospitality, Davidson Hospitality Group, Noble House Hotels & Resorts, Provenance, Springboard Hospitality, and Viceroy Hotels & Resorts. Balance Sheet and Liquidity As of March 31, 2021, prior to the $157.6 million of net proceeds generated from the sale of the Sir Francis Drake Hotel, the Company had $124.6 million of consolidated cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash in addition to $643.2 million of additional undrawn availability on its senior unsecured revolving credit facility, for total liquidity of $767.8 million. The Company had $2.4 billion in consolidated unsecured debt and convertible notes at an effective weighted-average interest rate of 3.3 percent. Approximately $2.3 billion, or 93 percent of the Company's total outstanding debt and convertible notes, was at a weighted-average fixed interest rate of 3.4 percent, and approximately $0.2 billion, or 7 percent, was at a weighted-average floating interest rate of 2.4 percent. The Company had $1.6 billion of unsecured term loans, and there was no outstanding balance on its $650.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility. The Company has no loans maturing until 2022. Common and Preferred Dividends On March 15, 2021, the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.01 per share on its common shares as well as a regular quarterly cash dividend for the following preferred shares of beneficial interest: $0.40625 per 6.50% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share; $0.39844 per 6.375% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share; $0.39844 per 6.375% Series E Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share; and $0.39375 per 6.30% Series F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share. 2021 Outlook The Company continues to be unable to provide a full-year outlook for 2021 due to the uncertainties caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company intends to issue new guidance when it has more clarity on government restrictions, advances in health solutions, the economy, travel demand, and more predictable overall operating fundamentals and trends.

These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the Company’s results of operations determined in accordance with GAAP. Funds from Operations (“FFO”) - FFO represents net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of properties, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships. The Company considers FFO a useful measure of performance for an equity REIT because it facilitates an understanding of the Company's operating performance without giving effect to real estate depreciation and amortization, which assume that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, the Company believes that FFO provides a meaningful indication of its performance. The Company also considers FFO an appropriate performance measure given its wide use by investors and analysts. The Company computes FFO in accordance with standards established by the Board of Governors of Nareit in its March 1995 White Paper (as amended in November 1999 and April 2002), which may differ from the methodology for calculating FFO utilized by other equity REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to that of other REITs. Further, FFO does not represent amounts available for management’s discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments and uncertainties, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund the Company’s cash needs, including its ability to make distributions. The Company presents FFO per diluted share calculations that are based on the outstanding dilutive common shares plus the outstanding Operating Partnership units for the periods presented. The Company also evaluates its performance by reviewing Adjusted FFO because it believes that adjusting FFO to exclude certain recurring and non-recurring items described below provides useful supplemental information regarding the Company's ongoing operating performance and that the presentation of Adjusted FFO, when combined with the primary GAAP presentation of net income (loss), more completely describes the Company's operating performance. The Company adjusts FFO available to common share and unit holders for the following items, which may occur in any period, and refers to this measure as Adjusted FFO: - Transaction costs: The Company excludes transaction costs expensed during the period because it believes that including these costs in FFO does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company and its hotels. - Non-cash ground rent: The Company excludes the non-cash ground rent expense, which is primarily made up of the straight-line rent impact from a ground lease. - Management/franchise contract transition costs: The Company excludes one-time management and/or franchise contract transition costs expensed during the period because it believes that including these costs in FFO does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company and its hotels. - Interest expense adjustment for acquired liabilities: The Company excludes interest expense adjustment for acquired liabilities assumed in connection with acquisitions, because it believes that including these non-cash adjustments in FFO does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company. - Finance lease adjustment: The Company excludes the effect of non-cash interest expense from finance leases because it believes that including these non-cash adjustments in FFO does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company. - Non-cash amortization of acquired intangibles: The Company excludes the non-cash amortization of acquired intangibles, which includes but is not limited to the amortization of favorable and unfavorable leases or management agreements and above/below market real estate tax reduction agreements because it believes that including these non-cash adjustments in FFO does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company. - Non-cash interest expense, one-time operation suspension expenses, non-cash canceled share-based compensation and early extinguishment of debt: The Company excludes these items because the Company believes that including these adjustments in FFO does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company and its hotels. The Company’s presentation of FFO in accordance with the Nareit White Paper, and as adjusted by the Company, should not be considered as an alternative to net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of the Company’s financial performance or to cash flow from operating activities (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of its liquidity.

In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the Company’s results of operations determined in accordance with GAAP. Earnings before Interest, Taxes, and Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA") - The Company believes that EBITDA provides investors a useful financial measure to evaluate its operating performance, excluding the impact of our capital structure (primarily interest expense) and our asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization). Earnings before Interest, Taxes, and Depreciation and Amortization for Real Estate ("EBITDAre") - The Company believes that EBITDAre provides investors a useful financial measure to evaluate its operating performance, and the Company presents EBITDAre in accordance with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("Nareit") guidelines, as defined in its September 2017 white paper "Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization for Real Estate." EBITDAre adjusts EBITDA for the following items, which may occur in any period, and refers to these measures as Adjusted EBITDAre: (1) gains or losses on the disposition of depreciated property, including gains or losses on change of control; (2) impairment write-downs of depreciated property and of investments in unconsolidated affiliates caused by a decrease in value of depreciated property in the affiliate; and (3) adjustments to reflect the entity's share of EBITDAre of unconsolidated affiliates. The Company also evaluates its performance by reviewing Adjusted EBITDAre because it believes that adjusting EBITDAre to exclude certain recurring and non-recurring items described below provides useful supplemental information regarding the Company's ongoing operating performance and that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDAre, when combined with the primary GAAP presentation of net income (loss), more completely describes the Company's operating performance. The Company adjusts EBITDAre for the following items, which may occur in any period, and refers to these measures as Adjusted EBITDAre: - Transaction costs: The Company excludes transaction costs expensed during the period because it believes that including these costs in EBITDAre does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company and its hotels. - Non-cash ground rent: The Company excludes the non-cash ground rent expense, which is primarily made up of the straight-line rent impact from a ground lease. - Management/franchise contract transition costs: The Company excludes one-time management and/or franchise contract transition costs expensed during the period because it believes that including these costs in EBITDAre does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company and its hotels. - Non-cash amortization of acquired intangibles: The Company excludes the non-cash amortization of acquired intangibles, which includes but is not limited to the amortization of favorable and unfavorable leases or management agreements and above/below market real estate tax reduction agreements because it believes that including these non-cash adjustments in EBITDAre does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company and its hotels. - One-time operation suspension expenses and non-cash canceled share-based compensation: The Company excludes these items because it believes that including these costs in EBITDAre does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company and its hotels. The Company’s presentation of EBITDAre, and as adjusted by the Company, should not be considered as an alternative to net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of the Company’s financial performance or to cash flow from operating activities (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of its liquidity.

Pebblebrook Hotel Trust Reports First Quarter 2021 Results By: Pebblebrook Hotel Trust via Business Wire April 29, 2021 at 16:06 PM EDT Pebblebrook Hotel Trust (NYSE: PEB): HOTEL OPERATING TRENDS Hotel demand and booking trends accelerated throughout Q1, driving March Same-Property Hotel EBITDA(1) to a positive $1.3 million, the first time the portfolio has achieved positive Hotel EBITDA since the pandemic began Occupancy at the Company’s open hotels and resorts increased from 19.3 percent in January to 34.8 percent by March, and RevPAR grew from $43 in January to $65 in February and to $85 in March, roughly doubling from January Three of the Company’s hotels reopened in the first quarter and another 8 reopened in April, for a total of 48 of the Company’s 52 properties CASH BURN For January and February 2021, the Company’s total corporate cash burn averaged approximately $21.0 million due to typical winter seasonality and the rise in COVID-19 cases and government restrictions For March 2021, the Company’s total corporate cash burn declined to approximately $12.0 million due to rapidly improving hotel demand trends Assuming continuing progress against the virus and accompanying demand improvement, Pebblebrook believes eliminating its monthly total corporate cash burn could occur in the third quarter BALANCE SHEET & LIQUIDITY As of March 31, 2021, cash on hand of $124.6 million and liquidity of $767.8 million, which includes $643.2 million available on the Company’s $650.0 million credit facility Combined with the $157.6 million of net proceeds from the sale of the Sir Francis Drake Hotel in April, Pebblebrook has liquidity of over $900.0 million Net debt to depreciated book value at the end of Q1 2021: 42% 2021 OUTLOOK Given the uncertainties related to the COVID-19 pandemic, its impact on travel, and variable and unpredictable government restrictions, the Company is unable to provide an outlook for 2021 at this time For Q2 2021, the Company expects both Same-Property Room Revenues(1) and Total Revenues(1) to be down between (66%) and (70%) compared to Q2 2019, much improved from Q1 2021 (1) See tables later in this press release for a description of Same-Property information and reconciliations from net income (loss) to non-GAAP financial measures. "Improving demand trends during the first quarter exceeded our expectations, with rising confidence in travel as vaccination rates improved and travel restrictions eased. Same-Property Hotel EBITDA in March turned positive due to robust pent-up leisure demand throughout the portfolio. This rapid turnaround is a remarkable accomplishment considering the currently low levels of business transient and group hotel demand. The improvements in operating trends allowed us to reopen 10 more hotels since the end of February, including 7 in San Francisco, and one each in Boston, Portland, and Washington, D.C. As we look forward, we are encouraged with the increased booking activity we are experiencing, which we expect to strengthen further as we near the traditional peak leisure summer season. These accelerating trends should allow us to return to profitability earlier in the second half of this year than we expected just 45 days ago. We are also pleased to report the successful sale of the Sir Francis Drake Hotel in San Francisco, California, generating $157.6 million of net proceeds and a taxable gain of approximately $60.0 million. Strategically, we anticipate reallocating the proceeds from recent property dispositions into new acquisition opportunities that we expect will generate enhanced growth opportunities for our shareholders as they may become available.” -Jon E. Bortz, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Pebblebrook Hotel Trust First Quarter Highlights First Quarter Same-Property and Corporate Highlights 2021 2020 (’21 vs. ’20 growth) 2019 (’21 vs. ’19 growth) ($ in millions except per share and RevPAR data) Net income (loss) ($121.4) $42.1 $5.7 Same-Property Room Revenues(1) $53.2 $167.8 $222.7 Same-Property Room Revenues growth rate (68.3%) (76.1%) Same-Property Total Revenues(1) $83.2 $252.8 $328.9 Same-Property Total Revenues growth rate (67.1%) (74.7%) Same-Property Total Expenses(1) $99.3 $213.1 $239.6 Same-Property Total Expenses growth rate (53.4%) (58.5%) Same-Property EBITDA(1) ($16.1) $39.7 $89.4 Same-Property EBITDA growth rate (140.6%) (118.0%) Adjusted EBITDAre(1) ($25.0) $35.9 $90.5 Adjusted EBITDAre growth rate (169.5%) (127.6%) Adjusted FFO(1) ($55.7) $17.2 $60.7 Adjusted FFO per diluted share(1) ($0.42) $0.13 $0.46 Adjusted FFO per diluted share growth rate (423.1%) (191.3%) 2021 Monthly Results Open Portfolio Highlights(2) January February March ($ in millions except ADR and RevPAR data) Open Portfolio Occupancy 19% 27% 35% Open Portfolio ADR $224 $241 $245 Open Portfolio RevPAR $43 $65 $85 Open Portfolio Total Revenues $18.0 $24.9 $37.1 Open Portfolio Total Revenues growth rate (2021 vs. 2019) (73%) (68%) (59%) Open Portfolio EBITDA ($6.3) ($1.5) $6.0 (1) See tables later in this press release for a description of same-property information and reconciliations from net income (loss) to non-GAAP financial measures, including Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA"), EBITDA for Real Estate ("EBITDAre"), Adjusted EBITDAre, Funds from Operations ("FFO"), FFO per share, Adjusted FFO and Adjusted FFO per share.

(2) Represents properties at which operations were not temporarily suspended for more than half of each respective month. “The operating and financial performance of our hotels and resorts improved dramatically each month sequentially through the first quarter of 2021, and this positive trend has continued into April,” noted Mr. Bortz. “Our resorts continued to outperform within our portfolio due to strong leisure demand from an extended spring break season combined with pent-up travel demand. Our South Florida resorts achieved room rates, total revenues and Hotel EBITDA that surpassed comparable 2019 levels for March, and similar trends are continuing in April. As vaccine distribution expands, we expect travel to continue to increase. Our hotel teams have done an exceptional job rehiring associates and rebuilding our operating teams to get them into a position to take advantage of a strengthening environment. Our asset managers have worked closely with our hotel teams to redesign our operating models and best practices. We believe this allows our hotels to be more efficient and more profitable as additional hotel demand segments return over the coming months and quarters. We expect leisure travel will increase materially with huge pent-up demand for vacations and getaways, while we continue to expect business and group travel demand will gradually improve from a very low level over the next few months. However, we are not anticipating a material recovery in business travel until after Labor Day.” During the first quarter of 2021, occupancy at the Company’s open hotels increased from 19.3 percent in January, to 26.8 percent in February, and to 34.8 percent in March. The Company’s open hotels lost ($1.8) million of Hotel EBITDA in the quarter, though the numbers dramatically improved over the course of the quarter, with March achieving $6.0 million of Hotel EBITDA. The Company’s resort portfolio, of which all 8 properties were open throughout the first quarter, generated $14.5 million of Hotel EBITDA, with an occupancy of 40.8 percent and an ADR of $406.20, a rate that was 30.1 percent higher than the first quarter of 2019. Estimated Monthly Cash Burn The Company estimates that its monthly corporate cash burn for the first quarter averaged approximately $18.0 million (excluding capital investments) based on the following: Average hotel-level monthly cash losses of approximately $5.7 million, excluding one-time expenses; Corporate-level monthly cash G&A of $1.5 million; and Corporate finance-related monthly cash utilization of $10.8 million, which includes interest payments on the Company’s outstanding debt as well as both common and preferred dividend payments. Assuming progress is made to reduce the virus's impact through mitigation measures and widespread vaccinations, the Company expects its monthly total corporate cash burn to continue to decline, and believes it could potentially reach corporate breakeven sometime in the third quarter. Capital Investments and Strategic Property Redevelopments In the first quarter of 2021, the Company completed $9.6 million of capital investments throughout its portfolio. The Company expects to invest an additional $60.0 to $80.0 million during the remainder of 2021, including for the following redevelopments and repositioning projects that the Company believes will generate significant growth and returns on its investment dollars: L’Auberge Del Mar (estimated at $10.5 million), a major redevelopment, including guestrooms and suites and a dramatic transformation and expansion of the luxury property’s public spaces, including indoor and outdoor event and meeting spaces, bars, the pool, the creation of an outdoor restaurant with ocean views, and the addition of a coffee café. The renovation is targeted for completion in May 2021; Southernmost Beach Resort (estimated at $15.0 million), a comprehensive guestroom renovation, including all case goods, soft goods, and bathrooms, including tub to shower conversions. The renovation is targeted to commence in the third quarter and be completed in the fourth quarter of 2021; Hotel Vitale (estimated at $25.0 million), a total transformation to the sustainability-focused, mission-driven, and luxury experiential 1 Hotel San Francisco, which will offer nature-inspired designs and environmentally focused aesthetics throughout guestrooms and suites, public areas, and meeting and event venues. The redevelopment is targeted to commence in the third quarter. The hotel is currently closed due to the pandemic and the Company does not plan to reopen the hotel until the redevelopment is completed at year-end; and Grafton on Sunset (estimated at $5.0 million), a comprehensive redevelopment of the hotel’s indoor and outdoor public areas and suites and a refresh of guest rooms, estimated to commence in the fourth quarter and be complete in the first quarter of 2022 when it is renamed and becomes part of the Company’s Unofficial Z Collection. As fundamentals improve, the Company will evaluate commencing additional previously planned major renovation and repositioning projects later in 2021. Update on Strategic Capital Reallocation On April 1, 2021, the Company completed the sale of the Sir Francis Drake Hotel in San Francisco, California, generating $157.6 million of net proceeds after customary closing costs. Since the second quarter of 2020, the Company has generated $222.5 million of net proceeds from property dispositions. The Company intends to strategically reallocate these proceeds into new investment opportunities that it anticipates will offer enhanced growth opportunities, as they may become available. Update on Curator Hotel and Resort Collection Curator Hotel and Resort Collection (“Curator”), a distinct collection of hand-selected small brands and independent lifestyle hotels and resorts worldwide, founded by Pebblebrook and seven industry-leading hotel operators, continued to add additional member hotels and new operating partnerships since the start of 2021. Curator now has 62 member hotels with additional member hotels being added on a weekly and monthly basis. Also, Curator announced strategic partnerships with several leading hotel supplier companies, including Avendra and Pure HD, and now has over 18 master service agreements with preferred vendor partners, with over 20 additional agreements pending. Curator also recently welcomed Sage Hospitality Group as its newest Founding Member. Sage joins a highly respected group of leading independent hotel operators, including Benchmark Global Hospitality, Davidson Hospitality Group, Noble House Hotels & Resorts, Provenance, Springboard Hospitality, and Viceroy Hotels & Resorts. Balance Sheet and Liquidity As of March 31, 2021, prior to the $157.6 million of net proceeds generated from the sale of the Sir Francis Drake Hotel, the Company had $124.6 million of consolidated cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash in addition to $643.2 million of additional undrawn availability on its senior unsecured revolving credit facility, for total liquidity of $767.8 million. The Company had $2.4 billion in consolidated unsecured debt and convertible notes at an effective weighted-average interest rate of 3.3 percent. Approximately $2.3 billion, or 93 percent of the Company's total outstanding debt and convertible notes, was at a weighted-average fixed interest rate of 3.4 percent, and approximately $0.2 billion, or 7 percent, was at a weighted-average floating interest rate of 2.4 percent. The Company had $1.6 billion of unsecured term loans, and there was no outstanding balance on its $650.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility. The Company has no loans maturing until 2022. Common and Preferred Dividends On March 15, 2021, the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.01 per share on its common shares as well as a regular quarterly cash dividend for the following preferred shares of beneficial interest: $0.40625 per 6.50% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share; $0.39844 per 6.375% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share; $0.39844 per 6.375% Series E Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share; and $0.39375 per 6.30% Series F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share. 2021 Outlook The Company continues to be unable to provide a full-year outlook for 2021 due to the uncertainties caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company intends to issue new guidance when it has more clarity on government restrictions, advances in health solutions, the economy, travel demand, and more predictable overall operating fundamentals and trends.

These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the Company’s results of operations determined in accordance with GAAP. Funds from Operations (“FFO”) - FFO represents net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of properties, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships. The Company considers FFO a useful measure of performance for an equity REIT because it facilitates an understanding of the Company's operating performance without giving effect to real estate depreciation and amortization, which assume that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, the Company believes that FFO provides a meaningful indication of its performance. The Company also considers FFO an appropriate performance measure given its wide use by investors and analysts. The Company computes FFO in accordance with standards established by the Board of Governors of Nareit in its March 1995 White Paper (as amended in November 1999 and April 2002), which may differ from the methodology for calculating FFO utilized by other equity REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to that of other REITs. Further, FFO does not represent amounts available for management’s discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments and uncertainties, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund the Company’s cash needs, including its ability to make distributions. The Company presents FFO per diluted share calculations that are based on the outstanding dilutive common shares plus the outstanding Operating Partnership units for the periods presented. The Company also evaluates its performance by reviewing Adjusted FFO because it believes that adjusting FFO to exclude certain recurring and non-recurring items described below provides useful supplemental information regarding the Company's ongoing operating performance and that the presentation of Adjusted FFO, when combined with the primary GAAP presentation of net income (loss), more completely describes the Company's operating performance. The Company adjusts FFO available to common share and unit holders for the following items, which may occur in any period, and refers to this measure as Adjusted FFO: - Transaction costs: The Company excludes transaction costs expensed during the period because it believes that including these costs in FFO does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company and its hotels. - Non-cash ground rent: The Company excludes the non-cash ground rent expense, which is primarily made up of the straight-line rent impact from a ground lease. - Management/franchise contract transition costs: The Company excludes one-time management and/or franchise contract transition costs expensed during the period because it believes that including these costs in FFO does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company and its hotels. - Interest expense adjustment for acquired liabilities: The Company excludes interest expense adjustment for acquired liabilities assumed in connection with acquisitions, because it believes that including these non-cash adjustments in FFO does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company. - Finance lease adjustment: The Company excludes the effect of non-cash interest expense from finance leases because it believes that including these non-cash adjustments in FFO does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company. - Non-cash amortization of acquired intangibles: The Company excludes the non-cash amortization of acquired intangibles, which includes but is not limited to the amortization of favorable and unfavorable leases or management agreements and above/below market real estate tax reduction agreements because it believes that including these non-cash adjustments in FFO does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company. - Non-cash interest expense, one-time operation suspension expenses, non-cash canceled share-based compensation and early extinguishment of debt: The Company excludes these items because the Company believes that including these adjustments in FFO does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company and its hotels. The Company’s presentation of FFO in accordance with the Nareit White Paper, and as adjusted by the Company, should not be considered as an alternative to net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of the Company’s financial performance or to cash flow from operating activities (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of its liquidity.

These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the Company’s results of operations determined in accordance with GAAP. Earnings before Interest, Taxes, and Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA") - The Company believes that EBITDA provides investors a useful financial measure to evaluate its operating performance, excluding the impact of our capital structure (primarily interest expense) and our asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization). Earnings before Interest, Taxes, and Depreciation and Amortization for Real Estate ("EBITDAre") - The Company believes that EBITDAre provides investors a useful financial measure to evaluate its operating performance, and the Company presents EBITDAre in accordance with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("Nareit") guidelines, as defined in its September 2017 white paper "Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization for Real Estate." EBITDAre adjusts EBITDA for the following items, which may occur in any period, and refers to these measures as Adjusted EBITDAre: (1) gains or losses on the disposition of depreciated property, including gains or losses on change of control; (2) impairment write-downs of depreciated property and of investments in unconsolidated affiliates caused by a decrease in value of depreciated property in the affiliate; and (3) adjustments to reflect the entity's share of EBITDAre of unconsolidated affiliates. The Company also evaluates its performance by reviewing Adjusted EBITDAre because it believes that adjusting EBITDAre to exclude certain recurring and non-recurring items described below provides useful supplemental information regarding the Company's ongoing operating performance and that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDAre, when combined with the primary GAAP presentation of net income (loss), more completely describes the Company's operating performance. The Company adjusts EBITDAre for the following items, which may occur in any period, and refers to these measures as Adjusted EBITDAre: - Transaction costs: The Company excludes transaction costs expensed during the period because it believes that including these costs in EBITDAre does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company and its hotels. - Non-cash ground rent: The Company excludes the non-cash ground rent expense, which is primarily made up of the straight-line rent impact from a ground lease. - Management/franchise contract transition costs: The Company excludes one-time management and/or franchise contract transition costs expensed during the period because it believes that including these costs in EBITDAre does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company and its hotels. - Non-cash amortization of acquired intangibles: The Company excludes the non-cash amortization of acquired intangibles, which includes but is not limited to the amortization of favorable and unfavorable leases or management agreements and above/below market real estate tax reduction agreements because it believes that including these non-cash adjustments in EBITDAre does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company and its hotels. - One-time operation suspension expenses and non-cash canceled share-based compensation: The Company excludes these items because it believes that including these costs in EBITDAre does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company and its hotels. The Company’s presentation of EBITDAre, and as adjusted by the Company, should not be considered as an alternative to net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of the Company’s financial performance or to cash flow from operating activities (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of its liquidity.

Pebblebrook Hotel Trust (NYSE: PEB): HOTEL OPERATING TRENDS Hotel demand and booking trends accelerated throughout Q1, driving March Same-Property Hotel EBITDA(1) to a positive $1.3 million, the first time the portfolio has achieved positive Hotel EBITDA since the pandemic began Occupancy at the Company’s open hotels and resorts increased from 19.3 percent in January to 34.8 percent by March, and RevPAR grew from $43 in January to $65 in February and to $85 in March, roughly doubling from January Three of the Company’s hotels reopened in the first quarter and another 8 reopened in April, for a total of 48 of the Company’s 52 properties CASH BURN For January and February 2021, the Company’s total corporate cash burn averaged approximately $21.0 million due to typical winter seasonality and the rise in COVID-19 cases and government restrictions For March 2021, the Company’s total corporate cash burn declined to approximately $12.0 million due to rapidly improving hotel demand trends Assuming continuing progress against the virus and accompanying demand improvement, Pebblebrook believes eliminating its monthly total corporate cash burn could occur in the third quarter BALANCE SHEET & LIQUIDITY As of March 31, 2021, cash on hand of $124.6 million and liquidity of $767.8 million, which includes $643.2 million available on the Company’s $650.0 million credit facility Combined with the $157.6 million of net proceeds from the sale of the Sir Francis Drake Hotel in April, Pebblebrook has liquidity of over $900.0 million Net debt to depreciated book value at the end of Q1 2021: 42% 2021 OUTLOOK Given the uncertainties related to the COVID-19 pandemic, its impact on travel, and variable and unpredictable government restrictions, the Company is unable to provide an outlook for 2021 at this time For Q2 2021, the Company expects both Same-Property Room Revenues(1) and Total Revenues(1) to be down between (66%) and (70%) compared to Q2 2019, much improved from Q1 2021 (1) See tables later in this press release for a description of Same-Property information and reconciliations from net income (loss) to non-GAAP financial measures. "Improving demand trends during the first quarter exceeded our expectations, with rising confidence in travel as vaccination rates improved and travel restrictions eased. Same-Property Hotel EBITDA in March turned positive due to robust pent-up leisure demand throughout the portfolio. This rapid turnaround is a remarkable accomplishment considering the currently low levels of business transient and group hotel demand. The improvements in operating trends allowed us to reopen 10 more hotels since the end of February, including 7 in San Francisco, and one each in Boston, Portland, and Washington, D.C. As we look forward, we are encouraged with the increased booking activity we are experiencing, which we expect to strengthen further as we near the traditional peak leisure summer season. These accelerating trends should allow us to return to profitability earlier in the second half of this year than we expected just 45 days ago. We are also pleased to report the successful sale of the Sir Francis Drake Hotel in San Francisco, California, generating $157.6 million of net proceeds and a taxable gain of approximately $60.0 million. Strategically, we anticipate reallocating the proceeds from recent property dispositions into new acquisition opportunities that we expect will generate enhanced growth opportunities for our shareholders as they may become available.” -Jon E.

(2) Represents properties at which operations were not temporarily suspended for more than half of each respective month. “The operating and financial performance of our hotels and resorts improved dramatically each month sequentially through the first quarter of 2021, and this positive trend has continued into April,” noted Mr. Bortz. “Our resorts continued to outperform within our portfolio due to strong leisure demand from an extended spring break season combined with pent-up travel demand. Our South Florida resorts achieved room rates, total revenues and Hotel EBITDA that surpassed comparable 2019 levels for March, and similar trends are continuing in April. As vaccine distribution expands, we expect travel to continue to increase. Our hotel teams have done an exceptional job rehiring associates and rebuilding our operating teams to get them into a position to take advantage of a strengthening environment. Our asset managers have worked closely with our hotel teams to redesign our operating models and best practices. We believe this allows our hotels to be more efficient and more profitable as additional hotel demand segments return over the coming months and quarters. We expect leisure travel will increase materially with huge pent-up demand for vacations and getaways, while we continue to expect business and group travel demand will gradually improve from a very low level over the next few months. However, we are not anticipating a material recovery in business travel until after Labor Day.” During the first quarter of 2021, occupancy at the Company’s open hotels increased from 19.3 percent in January, to 26.8 percent in February, and to 34.8 percent in March. The Company’s open hotels lost ($1.8) million of Hotel EBITDA in the quarter, though the numbers dramatically improved over the course of the quarter, with March achieving $6.0 million of Hotel EBITDA. The Company’s resort portfolio, of which all 8 properties were open throughout the first quarter, generated $14.5 million of Hotel EBITDA, with an occupancy of 40.8 percent and an ADR of $406.20, a rate that was 30.1 percent higher than the first quarter of 2019. Estimated Monthly Cash Burn The Company estimates that its monthly corporate cash burn for the first quarter averaged approximately $18.0 million (excluding capital investments) based on the following: Average hotel-level monthly cash losses of approximately $5.7 million, excluding one-time expenses; Corporate-level monthly cash G&A of $1.5 million; and Corporate finance-related monthly cash utilization of $10.8 million, which includes interest payments on the Company’s outstanding debt as well as both common and preferred dividend payments. Assuming progress is made to reduce the virus's impact through mitigation measures and widespread vaccinations, the Company expects its monthly total corporate cash burn to continue to decline, and believes it could potentially reach corporate breakeven sometime in the third quarter. Capital Investments and Strategic Property Redevelopments In the first quarter of 2021, the Company completed $9.6 million of capital investments throughout its portfolio. The Company expects to invest an additional $60.0 to $80.0 million during the remainder of 2021, including for the following redevelopments and repositioning projects that the Company believes will generate significant growth and returns on its investment dollars: L’Auberge Del Mar (estimated at $10.5 million), a major redevelopment, including guestrooms and suites and a dramatic transformation and expansion of the luxury property’s public spaces, including indoor and outdoor event and meeting spaces, bars, the pool, the creation of an outdoor restaurant with ocean views, and the addition of a coffee café. The renovation is targeted for completion in May 2021; Southernmost Beach Resort (estimated at $15.0 million), a comprehensive guestroom renovation, including all case goods, soft goods, and bathrooms, including tub to shower conversions. The renovation is targeted to commence in the third quarter and be completed in the fourth quarter of 2021; Hotel Vitale (estimated at $25.0 million), a total transformation to the sustainability-focused, mission-driven, and luxury experiential 1 Hotel San Francisco, which will offer nature-inspired designs and environmentally focused aesthetics throughout guestrooms and suites, public areas, and meeting and event venues. The redevelopment is targeted to commence in the third quarter. The hotel is currently closed due to the pandemic and the Company does not plan to reopen the hotel until the redevelopment is completed at year-end; and Grafton on Sunset (estimated at $5.0 million), a comprehensive redevelopment of the hotel’s indoor and outdoor public areas and suites and a refresh of guest rooms, estimated to commence in the fourth quarter and be complete in the first quarter of 2022 when it is renamed and becomes part of the Company’s Unofficial Z Collection. As fundamentals improve, the Company will evaluate commencing additional previously planned major renovation and repositioning projects later in 2021. Update on Strategic Capital Reallocation On April 1, 2021, the Company completed the sale of the Sir Francis Drake Hotel in San Francisco, California, generating $157.6 million of net proceeds after customary closing costs. Since the second quarter of 2020, the Company has generated $222.5 million of net proceeds from property dispositions. The Company intends to strategically reallocate these proceeds into new investment opportunities that it anticipates will offer enhanced growth opportunities, as they may become available. Update on Curator Hotel and Resort Collection Curator Hotel and Resort Collection (“Curator”), a distinct collection of hand-selected small brands and independent lifestyle hotels and resorts worldwide, founded by Pebblebrook and seven industry-leading hotel operators, continued to add additional member hotels and new operating partnerships since the start of 2021. Curator now has 62 member hotels with additional member hotels being added on a weekly and monthly basis. Also, Curator announced strategic partnerships with several leading hotel supplier companies, including Avendra and Pure HD, and now has over 18 master service agreements with preferred vendor partners, with over 20 additional agreements pending. Curator also recently welcomed Sage Hospitality Group as its newest Founding Member. Sage joins a highly respected group of leading independent hotel operators, including Benchmark Global Hospitality, Davidson Hospitality Group, Noble House Hotels & Resorts, Provenance, Springboard Hospitality, and Viceroy Hotels & Resorts. Balance Sheet and Liquidity As of March 31, 2021, prior to the $157.6 million of net proceeds generated from the sale of the Sir Francis Drake Hotel, the Company had $124.6 million of consolidated cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash in addition to $643.2 million of additional undrawn availability on its senior unsecured revolving credit facility, for total liquidity of $767.8 million. The Company had $2.4 billion in consolidated unsecured debt and convertible notes at an effective weighted-average interest rate of 3.3 percent. Approximately $2.3 billion, or 93 percent of the Company's total outstanding debt and convertible notes, was at a weighted-average fixed interest rate of 3.4 percent, and approximately $0.2 billion, or 7 percent, was at a weighted-average floating interest rate of 2.4 percent. The Company had $1.6 billion of unsecured term loans, and there was no outstanding balance on its $650.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility. The Company has no loans maturing until 2022. Common and Preferred Dividends On March 15, 2021, the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.01 per share on its common shares as well as a regular quarterly cash dividend for the following preferred shares of beneficial interest: $0.40625 per 6.50% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share; $0.39844 per 6.375% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share; $0.39844 per 6.375% Series E Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share; and $0.39375 per 6.30% Series F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share. 2021 Outlook The Company continues to be unable to provide a full-year outlook for 2021 due to the uncertainties caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company intends to issue new guidance when it has more clarity on government restrictions, advances in health solutions, the economy, travel demand, and more predictable overall operating fundamentals and trends.

These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the Company’s results of operations determined in accordance with GAAP. Funds from Operations (“FFO”) - FFO represents net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of properties, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships. The Company considers FFO a useful measure of performance for an equity REIT because it facilitates an understanding of the Company's operating performance without giving effect to real estate depreciation and amortization, which assume that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, the Company believes that FFO provides a meaningful indication of its performance. The Company also considers FFO an appropriate performance measure given its wide use by investors and analysts. The Company computes FFO in accordance with standards established by the Board of Governors of Nareit in its March 1995 White Paper (as amended in November 1999 and April 2002), which may differ from the methodology for calculating FFO utilized by other equity REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to that of other REITs. Further, FFO does not represent amounts available for management’s discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments and uncertainties, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund the Company’s cash needs, including its ability to make distributions. The Company presents FFO per diluted share calculations that are based on the outstanding dilutive common shares plus the outstanding Operating Partnership units for the periods presented. The Company also evaluates its performance by reviewing Adjusted FFO because it believes that adjusting FFO to exclude certain recurring and non-recurring items described below provides useful supplemental information regarding the Company's ongoing operating performance and that the presentation of Adjusted FFO, when combined with the primary GAAP presentation of net income (loss), more completely describes the Company's operating performance. The Company adjusts FFO available to common share and unit holders for the following items, which may occur in any period, and refers to this measure as Adjusted FFO: - Transaction costs: The Company excludes transaction costs expensed during the period because it believes that including these costs in FFO does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company and its hotels. - Non-cash ground rent: The Company excludes the non-cash ground rent expense, which is primarily made up of the straight-line rent impact from a ground lease. - Management/franchise contract transition costs: The Company excludes one-time management and/or franchise contract transition costs expensed during the period because it believes that including these costs in FFO does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company and its hotels. - Interest expense adjustment for acquired liabilities: The Company excludes interest expense adjustment for acquired liabilities assumed in connection with acquisitions, because it believes that including these non-cash adjustments in FFO does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company. - Finance lease adjustment: The Company excludes the effect of non-cash interest expense from finance leases because it believes that including these non-cash adjustments in FFO does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company. - Non-cash amortization of acquired intangibles: The Company excludes the non-cash amortization of acquired intangibles, which includes but is not limited to the amortization of favorable and unfavorable leases or management agreements and above/below market real estate tax reduction agreements because it believes that including these non-cash adjustments in FFO does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company. - Non-cash interest expense, one-time operation suspension expenses, non-cash canceled share-based compensation and early extinguishment of debt: The Company excludes these items because the Company believes that including these adjustments in FFO does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company and its hotels. The Company’s presentation of FFO in accordance with the Nareit White Paper, and as adjusted by the Company, should not be considered as an alternative to net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of the Company’s financial performance or to cash flow from operating activities (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of its liquidity.

In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the Company’s results of operations determined in accordance with GAAP. Earnings before Interest, Taxes, and Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA") - The Company believes that EBITDA provides investors a useful financial measure to evaluate its operating performance, excluding the impact of our capital structure (primarily interest expense) and our asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization). Earnings before Interest, Taxes, and Depreciation and Amortization for Real Estate ("EBITDAre") - The Company believes that EBITDAre provides investors a useful financial measure to evaluate its operating performance, and the Company presents EBITDAre in accordance with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("Nareit") guidelines, as defined in its September 2017 white paper "Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization for Real Estate." EBITDAre adjusts EBITDA for the following items, which may occur in any period, and refers to these measures as Adjusted EBITDAre: (1) gains or losses on the disposition of depreciated property, including gains or losses on change of control; (2) impairment write-downs of depreciated property and of investments in unconsolidated affiliates caused by a decrease in value of depreciated property in the affiliate; and (3) adjustments to reflect the entity's share of EBITDAre of unconsolidated affiliates. The Company also evaluates its performance by reviewing Adjusted EBITDAre because it believes that adjusting EBITDAre to exclude certain recurring and non-recurring items described below provides useful supplemental information regarding the Company's ongoing operating performance and that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDAre, when combined with the primary GAAP presentation of net income (loss), more completely describes the Company's operating performance. The Company adjusts EBITDAre for the following items, which may occur in any period, and refers to these measures as Adjusted EBITDAre: - Transaction costs: The Company excludes transaction costs expensed during the period because it believes that including these costs in EBITDAre does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company and its hotels. - Non-cash ground rent: The Company excludes the non-cash ground rent expense, which is primarily made up of the straight-line rent impact from a ground lease. - Management/franchise contract transition costs: The Company excludes one-time management and/or franchise contract transition costs expensed during the period because it believes that including these costs in EBITDAre does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company and its hotels. - Non-cash amortization of acquired intangibles: The Company excludes the non-cash amortization of acquired intangibles, which includes but is not limited to the amortization of favorable and unfavorable leases or management agreements and above/below market real estate tax reduction agreements because it believes that including these non-cash adjustments in EBITDAre does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company and its hotels. - One-time operation suspension expenses and non-cash canceled share-based compensation: The Company excludes these items because it believes that including these costs in EBITDAre does not reflect the underlying financial performance of the Company and its hotels. The Company’s presentation of EBITDAre, and as adjusted by the Company, should not be considered as an alternative to net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of the Company’s financial performance or to cash flow from operating activities (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of its liquidity.
