September 2020
RLJ IS WELL-POSITIONED
RLJ has the liquidity and balance sheet strength to weather the COVID-19 crisis, relative advantage in a recovery and embedded catalysts to outperform long-term
Successful execution of our 2019 priorities improved our portfolio and strengthened our balance sheet
Proactively responded to COVID-19, initially suspending operations at 57 hotels and subsequently pivoting to reopening 90% of the portfolio
Reduced cash burn driven by hotel reopenings, better than expected revenues and effective cost containment
Transient-orientedportfolio, lean operating model and broad geographic diversification positions RLJ to outperform during recovery
Strong liquidity, well-laddered debt maturities and covenant flexibility
Embedded long-term growth catalysts such as Wyndham conversions, ROI projects and capital market opportunities remain intact
We remain confident that despite COVID-19's unprecedented impact on lodging, our balance
sheet allows us to navigate through this crisis and be well-positioned for a recovery
