Financial Performance


Item 19 Financial Performance

Data Based On: The financial performance representations, including Occupancy Rate, Average Daily Rate, RevPAR, World of Hyatt program contribution, and Reservation Channel Mix, are based on 102 'Covered Hotels' (which include both franchised and owned/managed hotels) that operated during all of 2025, for the period January 1, 2025 through December 31, 2025.

* The document provides metrics such as Average Daily Rate ($178.16) and Average RevPAR ($115.83) for Franchised Covered Hotels during 2025. However, it does not provide an average gross revenue per franchised unit in a dollar amount or sufficient data (such as the average number of available rooms per franchised hotel) to calculate total gross revenue per unit without making assumptions. The document also explicitly states on page 6 under 'Comments to All Financial Performance Representations' that 'The figures contained in these financial performance representations do not reflect the costs of sales, operating expenses, or other costs or expenses that must be deducted from the revenue figures to obtain net income or profit.' Therefore, all profit-related metrics are set to null.
