Hilton Reports Strong Second Quarter 2007 Results
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 31, 2007--Hilton Hotels Corporation (NYSE:HLT) today reported financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2007. Second quarter highlights compared to the second quarter of 2006 are as follows:
Fees up 16% to $201 million on strong RevPAR and unit growth.
Comparable system-wide RevPAR increased 8.9%, driven by strong rate increases and high demand in most major markets. North America comparable owned RevPAR increased 9.8%.
Hilton reported second quarter 2007 net income of $165 million compared with $144 million in the 2006 quarter. Diluted net income per share was $.40 in the 2007 second quarter, versus $.35 in the 2006 quarter. Excluding non-recurring items in both periods, diluted EPS totaled $.38 per share in the 2007 quarter, a 19 percent increase from $.32 per share in the 2006 quarter.
Non-recurring items combined to benefit the 2007 quarter by $.02 per share as follows:
$47 million pre-tax gain related to the Scandic sale (included in discontinued operations, net of tax);
$24 million pre-tax other loss; primarily related to currency contracts used to protect the U.S. dollar value of the Scandic sale proceeds;
$6 million pre-tax loss on foreign currency transactions;
$4 million pre-tax loss related to impairment of a joint venture investment.
The 2006 second quarter benefited from non-recurring items totaling $.03 per share.
Net income from the Scandic hotel system, the sale of which was announced on March 2, 2007 and completed on April 26, 2007, is reflected as discontinued operations.
The company reported second quarter 2007 total operating income of $345 million (a 1 percent decrease from the 2006 quarter), on total revenue of $2.085 billion (a 4 percent increase from $2.005 billion in the 2006 quarter). Total company earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA) were $468 million, a decrease of 4 percent from $489 million in the 2006 quarter. Revenue, operating income and Adjusted EBITDA growth in the quarter were impacted by asset sales completed within the last twelve months.
System-wide RevPAR; Management/Franchise Fees
All of the company's brands reported significant system-wide revenue-per-available-room (RevPAR) increases, with particularly strong gains in average daily rate (ADR). On a system-wide basis (including owned, leased, managed and franchised properties) second quarter comparable RevPAR increased 8.9 percent compared to the 2006 period. The company's brands showed second quarter RevPAR gains as follows: Conrad, 15.7 percent; Hilton, 10.4 percent; Doubletree, 8.6 percent; Hilton Garden Inn, 8.0 percent; Hampton Inn, 7.6 percent; Homewood Suites by Hilton, 7.4 percent; and Embassy Suites, 6.3 percent.
Management and franchise fees increased 16 percent in the second quarter to $201 million, benefiting from RevPAR gains and the addition of new units.
Owned Hotel Results
Continued strong demand trends resulted in high single digit or double digit ADR increases at many of the company's gateway hotels around the world. Business transient, group and leisure segments all showed solid ADR gains.
Across all brands, revenue from the company's owned hotels (majority owned and controlled hotels) was $636 million in the second quarter 2007, a 6 percent decrease from $678 million in the 2006 quarter. Total owned hotel expenses declined 8 percent in the quarter to $435 million. The decreases reflect the sale of owned assets over the last year.
Comparable North America (N.A.) owned revenue and expenses increased 8.5 percent and 4.3 percent, respectively.
RevPAR from comparable N.A. owned hotels increased 9.8 percent. Comparable owned N.A. hotel occupancy increased 2.0 points to 82.0 percent, while ADR increased 7.1 percent to $211.29. Particularly strong RevPAR growth was reported at the company's owned hotels in New York and San Francisco, while the Hawaii market was soft during the quarter. Comparable N.A. owned hotel margins in the second quarter increased 270 basis points to 32.9 percent.
Comparatively lower renovation disruption activity at the Hilton New York, the Waldorf=Astoria, and the Hilton Hawaiian Village in the 2007 second quarter benefited comparable N.A. owned hotel RevPAR and margin growth.
Comparable international owned revenue and expenses increased 9.3 percent and 7.7 percent, respectively. RevPAR from international comparable owned hotels increased 9.4 percent. Occupancy decreased 1.3 points to 73.0 percent, while ADR increased 11.3 percent to $162.35. Particularly strong results were reported in Barcelona, Zurich, Sydney and Sao Paulo. Adjusting for the impact of foreign exchange, RevPAR from international comparable owned hotels increased 3.2 percent. Comparable international owned margins improved 110 basis points to 26.8 percent.
On a worldwide basis, comparable owned RevPAR increased 9.7 percent, with margins improving 230 basis points to 31.3 percent. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange, worldwide comparable owned RevPAR increased 8.2 percent.
Leased Hotels
Revenue from leased hotels was $530 million in the second quarter 2007 compared to $476 million in the 2006 quarter, while leased expenses (including rents) were $459 million in the current quarter versus $415 million last year. The EBITDAR-to-rent coverage ratio was 1.6 times in the quarter. Leased results exclude hotels that have been classified as discontinued operations in connection with the Scandic sale.
Comparable leased revenue increased 12.0 percent, leased expenses increased 10.7 percent and margins increased 100 basis points to 13.6 percent. RevPAR from comparable leased properties increased 14.6 percent. Adjusting for the impact of foreign exchange, RevPAR from comparable leased hotels increased 9.3 percent, reflective of business strength in the U.K. (primarily London) and continental Europe.
Hilton Grand Vacations
Hilton Grand Vacations Company (HGVC), the company's vacation ownership business, reported a 21 percent decline in profitability in the second quarter, due to percentage-of-completion accounting associated with new projects. Revenue and expenses associated with projects in development are deferred to correspond with the pace of construction. Unit sales declined 9 percent, however average unit sales prices increased 35 percent over last year, with the increase driven by new projects in Hawaii.
HGVC had second quarter revenue of $159 million, an 8 percent decrease from $173 million in the 2006 quarter. Expenses were $121 million in the second quarter, compared with $125 million in the 2006 period.

During the second quarter, the company announced four new agreements as follows:
* A strategic alliance with the Caribbean Property Development Group to develop approximately 15 franchised hotels in Central America and the Caribbean under the Hilton Garden Inn, Hampton by Hilton and Homewood Suites by Hilton brands over the next five years.
* A strategic development alliance with London and Regional Properties to develop approximately 25 franchised or managed hotels in Russia under the Conrad, Hilton, Doubletree by Hilton, Hilton Garden Inn and Hampton by Hilton brands over the next five years.
* A strategic development alliance with Shiva Hotels Limited to develop approximately 15 franchised or managed hotels in the U.K. and Ireland under the Hilton, Doubletree by Hilton, Hilton Garden Inn and Hampton by Hilton brands over the next five years.
* A letter of understanding for a development alliance with Somerston Hotels U.K. Limited to develop approximately 25 franchised hotels in the U.K. under the Hampton by Hilton brand over the next five years.
At June 30, 2007, the Hilton worldwide system consisted of 2,896 properties and 490,438 rooms.
In July, the company received three highest-ranking awards in the J.D. Power and Associates 2007 North American Hotel Guest Satisfaction Index Study, outperforming all other hospitality companies within their respective segments. Hilton Garden Inn received the highest ranking (for the sixth consecutive year) in the mid-scale full service segment. Embassy Suites received the highest ranking (for the sixth time) in the upscale segment. Homewood Suites by Hilton received the highest ranking (for the fifth time) in the extended-stay segment.
Matthew J. Hart, Hilton President & COO, said: "Our operations continue to be very strong across the board. Our brand management and development businesses are experiencing strong RevPAR gains and unit growth both domestically and internationally. We are seeing significant RevPAR increases and improvement in margins across owned hotels, and our timeshare business continues to perform in-line with our expectations. Our development pipeline is larger than it has ever been and our four new strategic agreements add further momentum to our growth."
Asset Dispositions
During the second quarter, the company completed the sale of the Scandic chain for EUR 833 million or approximately $1.1 billion as of the transaction date. Additionally, during the second quarter the company sold the Hilton Washington for approximately $290 million.
The company also announced that it entered into an agreement to sell up to 10 hotels in Continental Europe for EUR 566 million or approximately $770 million. Early in the third quarter, the company announced that it has completed the sale of eight of the ten hotels and expects to complete the sale of the remaining two by the end of the third quarter 2007. The company will retain management agreements on nine of the ten hotels.
Corporate Finance
At June 30, 2007, Hilton had total debt of approximately $5.68 billion (net of approximately $499 million of debt and capital lease obligations resulting from the consolidation of certain joint venture entities and a managed hotel, which are non-recourse to Hilton), a reduction of nearly $1.4 billion during the quarter. Of the $5.68 billion, approximately 42 percent is floating rate debt. Total cash and equivalents (including restricted cash of approximately $376 million) were approximately $546 million at June 30, 2007.
The company's average basic and diluted share counts for the second quarter were 390 million and 424 million, respectively.
Hilton's effective tax rate for continuing operations in the second quarter 2007 was approximately 35 percent.
Total capital expenditures in the second quarter were approximately $194 million, including approximately $76 million expended for timeshare development.
Six-month Results
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2007, Hilton reported net income of $260 million, compared to $248 million in the 2006 period. Excluding non-recurring items in both periods, and assuming the Hilton International acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2006, diluted EPS totaled $.58 versus $.47 in the 2006 period. Non-recurring items benefited the 2007 six-month period by $.05 per share. The 2006 six-month period benefited from non-recurring items of $.09 per share. Additionally, had the HI acquisition been completed on January 1, 2006 (actual acquisition date was February 23, 2006), 2006 six-month results would have been reduced by approximately $.05 per share due to the seasonally weak business environment in the first two months of the year. Operating income for the six months was $573 million (consistent with the 2006 period) on revenue of $3.949 billion (compared with $3.446 billion in the 2006 period). For the 2007 six-month period, when compared to the same period last year, total company Adjusted EBITDA increased 3 percent to $839 million.
2007 Outlook
The company's prior guidance regarding the outlook for 2007 has been withdrawn and no new guidance is being issued due to the pending transaction.
Update on Blackstone Transaction
It is anticipated that the proposed acquisition of the company by BH Hotels LLC, an entity controlled by investment funds affiliated with the Blackstone Group L.P., will close during the fourth quarter 2007; completion is subject to the approval of Hilton's shareholders, as well as other customary closing conditions. Further details regarding the transaction can be found in the preliminary proxy statement that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission last week. It is available via the SEC filings link in the investor relations section of www.hiltonworldwide.com.
Stephen F. Bollenbach, Hilton co-chairman and chief executive officer, said: "The proposed sale of our company is proceeding on track with an anticipated closing in the fourth quarter of this year. As we stated when we announced the deal, this transaction brings tremendous value to our shareholders and we look forward to bringing it to completion in the next several months."
Note: This press release contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of federal securities law, including statements concerning business strategies and their intended results, the proposed transaction with Blackstone and similar statements concerning anticipated future events and expectations that are not historical facts. Discussion of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from management's current projections, forecasts, estimates and expectations is contained in Hilton's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Specifically, Hilton makes reference to the section entitled "Risk Factors" in its annual and quarterly reports. In addition to the risks and uncertainties set forth in the Hilton SEC reports or periodic reports, the proposed transaction with Blackstone described in this release could be affected by, among other things, the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the merger agreement; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Hilton and others related to the merger agreement; failure to obtain stockholder approval or any other failure to satisfy other conditions required to complete the merger, including required regulatory approvals; risks that the proposed transaction disrupts current plans and operations and the potential difficulties in employee retention as a result of the merger; the failure to obtain the necessary debt financing arrangements set forth in a commitment letter received in connection with the merger; the amount of the costs, fees, expenses and charges related to the merger and the actual terms of certain financings that will be obtained for the merger; and the impact of the substantial indebtedness incurred to finance the consummation of the merger. Many of the factors that will determine the outcome of the subject matter of this press release are beyond Hilton's ability to control or predict. Hilton undertakes no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements, or to make any other forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Additional Information and Where to Find It

Stockholders are urged to read the definitive proxy statement (and all amendments and supplements to it) and other materials that the Company may file with the SEC when they become available in their entirety, because they contain important information about the proposed transaction.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Regulation G, "Conditions for Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures,"
prescribes the conditions for use of non-GAAP financial information
in public disclosures. We believe that our presentation of EBITDA and
Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures, are important
supplemental measures of operating performance to investors. The
following discussion defines these terms and why we believe they are
useful measures of our performance.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization
(EBITDA) is a commonly used measure of performance in our industry
which we believe, when considered with measures calculated in
accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles (GAAP), gives investors a more complete understanding of
operating results before the impact of investing and financing
transactions and income taxes and facilitates comparisons between us
and our competitors. Management has historically adjusted EBITDA when
evaluating operating performance because we believe that the
inclusion or exclusion of certain recurring and non- recurring items
described below is necessary to provide the most accurate measure of
our core operating results and as a means to evaluate period-to-
period results. We have chosen to provide this information to
investors to enable them to perform more meaningful comparisons of
past, present and future operating results and as a means to evaluate
the results of core on-going operations. We do not reflect such items
when calculating EBITDA, however, we adjust for these items and refer
to this measure as Adjusted EBITDA. We have historically reported
this measure to our investors and believe that the continued
inclusion of Adjusted EBITDA provides consistency in our financial
reporting. We use Adjusted EBITDA in this press release because we
believe it is useful to investors in allowing greater transparency
related to a significant measure used by management in its financial
and operational decision-making. Adjusted EBITDA is among the more
significant factors in management's internal evaluation of total
company and individual property performance and in the evaluation of
incentive compensation related to property management. Management
also uses Adjusted EBITDA as a measure in determining the value of
acquisitions and dispositions. Adjusted EBITDA is also widely used by
management in the annual budget process. Externally, we believe these
measures continue to be used by investors in their assessment of our
operating performance and the valuation of our company. Adjusted
EBITDA reflects EBITDA adjusted for the following items:
Gains and Losses on Asset Dispositions and Non-Recurring Items
----------------------------------------------------------------------
We exclude from Adjusted EBITDA the effect of gains and losses on
asset dispositions and non-recurring items, such as asset write-
downs and impairment losses. We believe the inclusion of these
items is not consistent with reflecting the on-going performance of
our assets. Management believes it is useful to exclude gains and
losses on asset dispositions as these amounts are not reflective of
our operating performance or the performance of our assets and the
amount of such items can vary dramatically from period to period.
The timing and selection of an asset for disposition is subject to
a number of variables that are generally unrelated to our on-going
operations.
Proportionate Share of Depreciation and Amortization of
Unconsolidated Affiliates
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Our consolidated results include the equity earnings from our
unconsolidated affiliates after the deduction of our proportionate
share of depreciation and amortization expense from unconsolidated
affiliates. We exclude our proportionate share of depreciation and
amortization expense from unconsolidated affiliates from Adjusted
EBITDA to provide a more accurate measure of our proportionate
share of core operating results before investing activities and to
provide consistency with the performance measure we use for our
consolidated properties.
Operating Interest and Dividend Income
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Interest and dividend income from investments related to operating
activities is included in our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA. We
consider this income, primarily interest on notes receivable issued
to properties we manage or franchise and dividend income from
investments related to the development of our core businesses, to
be a part of our core operating results.
Non-Controlled Interest
----------------------------------------------------------------------
We exclude from Adjusted EBITDA the operating income, net interest
expense, tax provision and non-controlled interest reported on our
income statement to the extent we have no ownership interest. These
exclusions are shown in their respective lines on the
Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to EBITDA and Net Income.
Minority Interest, Net
----------------------------------------------------------------------
We exclude the minority interest in the income or loss of our
consolidated joint ventures because these amounts effectively
include our minority partners' proportionate share of depreciation,
amortization, interest and taxes, which are excluded from EBITDA.
Limitations on the Use of Non-GAAP Measures
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The use of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA has certain limitations. Our
presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may be different from the
presentation used by other companies and therefore comparability may
be limited. Depreciation expense for various long-term assets,
interest expense, income taxes and other items have been and will be
incurred and are not reflected in the presentation of EBITDA or
Adjusted EBITDA. Each of these items should also be considered in the
overall evaluation of our results. Additionally, EBITDA and Adjusted
EBITDA do not consider capital expenditures and other investing
activities and should not be considered as a measure of our
liquidity. We compensate for these limitations by providing the
relevant disclosure of our depreciation, interest and income tax
expense, capital expenditures and other items both in our
reconciliations to the GAAP financial measures and in our
consolidated financial statements, all of which should be considered
when evaluating our performance.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are used in addition to and in conjunction
with results presented in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA and Adjusted
EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income,
operating income, or any other operating performance measure
prescribed by GAAP, nor should these measures be relied upon to the
exclusion of GAAP financial measures. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
reflect additional ways of viewing our operations that we believe,
when viewed with our GAAP results and the reconciliations to the
corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide a more complete
understanding of factors and trends affecting our business than could
be obtained absent this disclosure. Management strongly encourages
investors to review our financial information in its entirety and not
to rely on a single financial measure.
