Financial Performance
Item 19 Financial Performance
Data Based On: 3 RADISSON BLU hotels that were open and operating as of December 31, 2025, including 1 Franchised Hotel and 2 Managed Hotels, meeting the definition of the Performance Sample for Item 19.
* The document provides financial performance data in the form of Average Occupancy Rate, Average Daily Rate (ADR), and Revenue per Available Room (RevPAR) for a sample of 3 hotels (1 franchised, 2 managed). While individual franchised hotel RevPAR ($90.18) and ADR ($155.60) are disclosed, these are 'per room' or 'per day' rates, not the total gross revenue per franchise unit. The document explicitly states that it does not reflect costs of sales, operating expenses, or other expenses, making it impossible to calculate or estimate any gross profit, net income, net profit, or EBITDA figures.
