Q3 2017 KEY POINTS/HIGHLIGHTS
- Revenue increased by $0.8 million or 2% during the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to 2016, primarily due to an increase in revenue within the Other Canada portfolio of $1.8 million, partially offset by a decrease in revenue within the Fort McMurray and Other Alberta portfolios of $0.8 million and $0.2 million, respectively.
- Hotel operating income decreased by $0.9 million or 5% during the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to 2016, primarily due to a decrease in hotel operating income within the Fort McMurray and Other Alberta portfolios of $1.6 million and $0.1 million, respectively, partially offset by an increase in hotel operating income within the Other Canada portfolio of $0.8 million.
- FFO increased by $0.3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to 2016. On a basic per common share basis, FFO decreased by $0.29 per common share, compared to the third quarter of 2016, primarily as a result of an increase in the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.
- Temple completed the sale of Holiday Inn Express, Sherwood Park, Alberta, on September 15, 2017 for gross proceeds of $9.7 million.
- Subsequent to September 30, 2017, holders of the Series E convertible debentures agreed to extend the maturity date from September 30, 2017 to September 30, 2020, while decreasing the conversion price from $40.08 to $9.75 per common share of Temple.

Operating Activities
- Net Income â Temple completed the third quarter of 2017 with net income of $3.4 million, compared to net income of $1.4 million during the same period in 2016. The increase in net income is mainly due to a decrease in depreciation and amortization of $1.7 million and a decrease in interest expense of $1.3 million, partially offset by a decrease in hotel operating income of $0.9 million. On a per common share basis, net income was $0.13 for the third quarter of 2017, compared to a net income of $0.11 during the third quarter of 2016.
- Occupancy and ADR â The increase in revenue primarily reflects higher occupancy and ADR levels within the Other Canada segment. In the third quarter of 2017, the ADR and occupancy levels of the Other Canada segment increased by $6.88 and 1%, respectively, to $154.64 and 81%, in comparison to the third quarter of 2016. In addition, reduced ADR levels within the Other Alberta and Fort McMurray segments, resulted in a lower operating margin as unfavourable market conditions continue to affect oil-dependent markets in Alberta.
- Cash Provided by Operating Activities â Cash provided by operating activities increased by $2.0 million during the third quarter of 2017, compared to the third quarter of 2016. Excluding working capital adjustments, cash provided by operating activities increased by $0.1 million, compared to 2016.
- Funds from Operations (“FFO”) â During the third quarter of 2017, FFO increased by $0.3 million, compared to the third quarter of 2016. On a basic per common share basis, FFO decreased by $0.29 per common share, compared to the third quarter of 2016.
Liquidity and Financing Activities
As of September 30, 2017, the unrestricted cash balance of Temple was $18.2 million and working capital was $12.1 million.
- On August 14, 2017, the Company refinanced a five-loan mortgage portfolio with the incumbent lender. The five loans are cross collateralized and three of the loans were refinanced for a five year term at an interest rate of 5.20% and are not subject to any financial covenants during the first 12 months of the term. As a condition of refinancing, the Company paid down the maturing, aggregate balance by $7.5 million. The fourth mortgage loan of five in the portfolio does not mature until November 2019, and the fifth was subsequently discharged on the disposal of Holiday Inn Express, Sherwood Park, Alberta.
- Temple completed the sale of Holiday Inn Express, Sherwood Park, Alberta, on September 15, 2017 for gross proceeds of $9.7 million and net proceeds of approximately $0.3 million, after repayment of the first mortgage loan and sale costs.
- Subsequent to September 30, 2017, holders of the Series E convertible debentures agreed to extend the maturity date from September 30, 2017 to September 30, 2020, while decreasing the conversion price from $40.08 to $9.75 per common share of Temple.
Investing Activities
As disclosed in the Statement of Cash Flows in the financial statements, the investing activities of Temple resulted in a net cash inflow of $9.3 million during the third quarter of 2017. Investing activities primarily reflect the proceeds from the sale of property and equipment and the cash distribution on equity investments, partially offset by cash outflows related to capital expenditures on hotel properties.
Debt Covenants
At September 30, 2017, the Company was not in compliance with debt service covenants affecting six mortgage loans (December 31, 2016 â nine) in the aggregate amount of $93.9 million (December 31, 2016 â $139.2 million). During the third quarter the Company refinanced a five-loan mortgage portfolio which included a $7.5 million pay down and a condition that the properties are not subject to any financial covenants during the first 12 months of the five year term. Management has been working with lenders throughout the year and the remaining loan covenant breaches are expected to be resolved by debt refinancings, loan modification agreements and/or a waiver of the covenant requirements.

During the third quarter of 2017, Same Property room revenue increased by $0.8 million or 2%, compared to the third quarter of 2016. The increase is comprised of a $1.5 million (6%) increase in the Other Canada portfolio, partially offset by a $0.6 million (8%) decrease in the Fort McMurray portfolio and a $0.1 million (2%) decrease in the Other Alberta portfolio.
The increase in Same Property room revenue during the third quarter of 2017, compared to the third quarter of 2016, is largely due to an increase in occupancy and RevPar for the Other Canada segment, partially offset by the continued unfavourable market conditions affecting oilâdependent markets in the Fort McMurray and Other Alberta segments.
Room Revenue Statistics
As disclosed in the following chart, for the third quarter ended September 30, 2017, RevPar for the Same Property portfolio was $102.26, compared to $99.95 for the third quarter ended September 30, 2016.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, RevPar for the Same Property portfolio was $88.54, compared to $85.64 for the nine months ended 2016.
RevPar for the Same Property portfolio generally reflects increased occupancy levels in the Fort McMurray and Other Canada segments, offset by reduced ADR levels in the Fort McMurray and Other Alberta segments.
Occupancy at the Fort McMurray properties increased during the third quarter of 2017 compared to the third quarter of 2016, but is still impacted by the unfavourable market conditions in Alberta.
