DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS | DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS General Summit Hotel Properties, Inc. (the “Company”) is a self-managed lodging property investment company that was organized in June 2010 as a Maryland corporation. The Company holds both general and limited partnership interests in Summit Hotel OP, LP (the “Operating Partnership”), a Delaware limited partnership also organized in June 2010. Unless the context otherwise requires, “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. We focus on owning lodging properties with efficient operating models that generate strong margins and investment returns. At March 31, 2025, our portfolio consisted of 97 lodging properties with a total of 14,555 guestrooms located in 25 states of the United States of America (“USA”). At March 31, 2025, we own 100% of the outstanding equity interests in 53 of the 97 lodging properties. We own a 51% controlling interest in 41 lodging properties through a joint venture that was formed in July 2019 with USFI G-Peak, Ltd. (“GIC”), a private limited company incorporated in the Republic of Singapore (the “GIC Joint Venture”). We also own 90% equity interests in two separate joint ventures (the “Brickell Joint Venture” and the “Onera Joint Venture”). The Brickell Joint Venture owns two lodging properties, and the Onera Joint Venture owns one lodging property. At March 31, 2025, 86% of our guestrooms were located in the top 50 metropolitan statistical areas (“MSAs”), 91% were located within the top 100 MSAs, and over 99% of our guestrooms operate under premium franchise brands owned by Marriott® International, Inc. (“Marriott”), Hilton® Worldwide (“Hilton”), Hyatt® Hotels Corporation (“Hyatt”), and InterContinental® Hotels Group (“IHG”). Substantially all of our assets are held by, and all of our operations are conducted through, the Operating Partnership. Through a wholly-owned subsidiary, we are the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. At March 31, 2025, we owned, directly and indirectly, approximately 90% of the Operating Partnership’s issued and outstanding common units of limited partnership interest (“Common Units”), and all of the Operating Partnership’s issued and outstanding 6.25% Series E and 5.875% Series F preferred units of limited partnership interest. NewcrestImage (as defined in Note 5 - Debt to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements) owns all of the issued and outstanding 5.25% Series Z Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Units (liquidation preference $25 per unit) of the Operating Partnership “Series Z Preferred Units”) as a result of the NCI Transaction (described in Note 5 - Debt to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). We collectively refer to preferred units of limited partnership interests of our Operating Partnership as “Preferred Units.” Pursuant to the Operating Partnership’s partnership agreement, we have full, exclusive and complete responsibility and discretion in the management and control of the Operating Partnership, including the ability to cause the Operating Partnership to enter into certain major transactions including acquisitions, dispositions, refinancings, to make distributions to partners, and to cause changes in the Operating Partnership’s business activities. We have elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for federal income tax purposes. To qualify as a REIT, we cannot operate or manage our lodging properties. Accordingly, all of our lodging properties are leased to our taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRS Lessees” or “TRSs”) and managed by professional third-party lodging property management companies.
