The following comments in regard to the financial position and operating results of Temple should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion & Analysis and the financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, which may be obtained from the Temple website at www.templehotels.ca or the SEDAR website at www.sedar.com.

Q2 2017 KEY POINTS/HIGHLIGHTS
- Revenue increased by $1.4 million or 3% during the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to 2016, primarily due to an increase in revenue within the Fort McMurray and Other Canada portfolios of $1.5 million and $0.3 million, respectively, partially offset by a decrease in revenue within the Other Alberta portfolio of $0.4 million.
- Hotel operating income decreased by $0.3 million or 2% during the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to 2016, primarily due to a decrease in hotel operating income within the Other Alberta and Other Canada portfolios of $0.4 million and $0.1 million, respectively, partially offset by an increase in hotel operating income within the Fort McMurray portfolio of $0.3 million.
- FFO increased by $2.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017, compared to 2016. On a basic per common share basis, FFO decreased by $0.10 per common share, compared to the second quarter of 2016, primarily as a result of an increase in the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.
- During 2017, the Company has reduced its level of debt by $57.1 million through the repayment of convertible debentures and $7.5 million of amortizing principal repayments. The Company has strengthened its financial position with the prudent use of capital and, as of the date hereof, the Company has reduced its number of covenant violations from ten to five loan breaches.
- Subsequent to June 30, 2017, the Company refinanced a five loan mortgage portfolio at an interest rate of 5.20% and included a $7.5 million repayment of the aggregate balance.
- On June 30, 2017, the Company repaid the 7.75% Series D convertible debentures in the amount of $34.3 million.
- On June 22, 2017, the common shares were consolidated on the basis of one (1) post-consolidation common share for six (6) pre-consolidation common shares (the “Share Consolidation”). The number of common shares and deferred common shares, the conversion price and the number of common shares issuable upon conversion of the outstanding convertible debentures, the exercise price and the number of common shares issuable upon exercise of the outstanding options of the Company, and per common share amounts, were also proportionally adjusted to reflect the Share Consolidation for all periods presented in this press release.

Operating Activities
- Net Income (Loss) â Temple completed the second quarter of 2017 with a net income of $2.7 million, compared to a net loss of $1.0 million during the same period in 2016. The increase in net income is mainly due to a decrease in depreciation of $2.3 million, an increase in other income of $1.6 million, a decrease in interest expense of $0.6 million, partially offset by an increase in deferred income tax expense of $0.4 million, a decrease in recovery of impairment of $0.3 million, and a decrease in hotel operating income of $0.4 million. On a per common share basis, net income was $0.11 for the second quarter of 2017, compared to a net loss of $0.08 during the second quarter of 2016.
- Occupancy and ADR â The increase in revenue primarily reflects higher occupancy levels within the Fort McMurray segment as well as higher ADR levels within the Other Canada segment. In the second quarter of 2017, the occupancy levels of the Fort McMurray segment increased by 25 percentage points to 57% in comparison to the second 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 $1.3 million during the second quarter of 2017, compared to the second quarter of 2016. Excluding working capital adjustments, cash provided by operating activities increased by $2.0 million, compared to 2016.
- Funds from Operations (“FFO”) â During the second quarter of 2017, FFO increased by $2.0 million compared to the second quarter of 2016. On a basic per common share basis, FFO decreased by $0.10 per common share, compared to the second quarter of 2016. The increase in FFO mainly reflects insurance proceeds of $2.1 million relating to a property loss claim as well as lower interest expense, partially offset by a decrease in net operating income and an increase in other expenses.
Liquidity and Financing Activities
As of June 30, 2017, the unrestricted cash balance of Temple was $13.9 million and working capital was $8.3 million.
- On June 27, 2017, the Company completed the financing of two properties in the amount of $15.6 million. The loan bears interest at either prime plus 2.50% or bankers’ acceptance plus 3.50% for a term of 2 years.
- On June 30, 2017, the Company fully repaid upon maturity the 7.75% Series D convertible debentures in the amount of $34.3 million.
- During June 2017, the Company extended a mortgage portfolio comprising three loans at their maturing amount of $37.5 million, for a term of one year.
- During June 2017, the Company refinanced a hotel property located in Sudbury, Ontario, at its maturing amount of $8.4 million, at an interest rate of 4.69% for a term of 7 years.
- Subsequent to June 30, 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 has been extended for 12 months.
Investing Activities
As disclosed in the Statement of Cash Flows in the financial statements, the investing activities of Temple resulted in a net cash outflow of $1.2 million during the second quarter of 2017. Investing activities primarily reflect cash outflows related to capital expenditures on hotel properties.

During the second quarter of 2017, room revenue increased by $1.6 million or 5%, compared to the second quarter of 2016. The increase is comprised of a $1.8 million (38%) increase in the Fort McMurray portfolio and a $0.2 million (1%) increase in the Other Canada portfolio, partially offset by a $0.4 million (6%) decrease in the Other Alberta portfolio.
The increase in Same Property room revenue during the second quarter of 2017, compared to the second quarter of 2016, is largely due to an increase in occupancy and RevPar for the Fort McMurray segment, as the second quarter of 2016 was negatively impacted by wildfires and mandatory evacuation, which led to a period of hotel closures due to the repair and remediation of properties in Fort McMurray, partially offset by the continued unfavourable market conditions affecting oilâdependent markets in the Other Alberta segment.
Room Revenue Statistics
As disclosed in the following chart, for the second quarter ended June 30, 2017, RevPar for the overall portfolio was $90.81, compared to $86.33 for the second quarter ended June 30, 2016.
For the six months ended June 30, 2017, RevPar for the overall portfolio was $81.58, compared to $78.52 for the six months ended 2016.
RevPar for Same Property portfolio results generally reflect increased occupancy levels in the Fort McMurray and Other Canada segments, offset by reduced ADR levels in the Other Alberta segment.
Occupancy at the Fort McMurray properties increased during the second quarter of 2017 compared to the second quarter of 2016, but is still impacted by the unfavourable market conditions in Alberta. Over time, it is expected that those involved in the rebuilding of the region will create demand for accommodation, putting upward pressure on occupancy rates.
