Impairment Charges
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, we recorded impairment charges on nine properties totaling $112.6 million. The impairment charges were a result of reduced estimated future cash flows resulting from reductions to the expected holding periods of the hotel properties. The impairment charges for four properties were based on a market approach methodology which compares the net book value of the assets to their fair market value. The impairment charge for the remaining five properties were based on the income approach which utilized a discounted cash flow methodology, supported by the market approach. These valuation techniques are considered Level 3 techniques under the fair value hierarchy.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, no impairment charges were recorded related to hotel properties.
The following table presents the fair value of our hotel properties measured at fair value after the aforementioned non-recurring impairment charges as of March 31, 2026 and the related impairment charge recorded (in thousands):
