Condor’s Goal is to Sell Two of the Four Legacy Hotels in First Half of 2018

Bill Blackham, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Condor, mentioned that with the closing of the Supertel Inn, the Company has only four remaining legacy hotels of the 55 that it owned at the beginning of 2015. Blackham added that the Company’s goal is to sell two of the four legacy hotels in the first half of 2018, thereby effectively concluding the recycling of proceeds from the sale of legacy hotels into its new investment platform, though there can be no guarantee that any of these planned dispositions will actually close.

Sale of Other Non-Core Legacy Hotels in 2018

On January 09, 2018, Condor announced that one of its legacy hotels, the 135-room Comfort Suites in South Bend, IN, is now under contract to sell for $6.1 million and is expected to close in Q1 2018. The Company closed the sale of a legacy hotel asset, the 71-room Comfort Inn & Suites located at 3328 East Center Street, Warsaw, IN 46582, for $5.0 million, on January 08, 2018.

Condor’s Recent Acquisition Agreement

On January 19, 2018, the Company closed its previously-announced agreement to purchase the 122-room TownePlace Suites located in the North Tech Ridge submarket of Austin, Texas. The hotel was purchased for $19.75 million and will continue to be managed by Aimbridge Hospitality. With the closing of this transaction, Condor added another young, high-quality select-service asset into its growing portfolio of new investment platform hotels.

Transformation of the Company’s Portfolio

Condor follows the strategy of acquiring newer select-service hotels in fast-growing, top-100 MSAs, and selling of its non-core legacy hotels. News release suggests that during the period from January 01, 2015, through December 31, 2017, the Company has closed approximately $276 million of acquisitions, including fourteen high-quality premium-branded select-service hotels flagged under the leading Marriott, Hilton, and IHG hotel brands. Around 53 legacy hotels were either sold or were under contract at year-end 2017, resulting in a total of approximately $161 million in gross proceeds. The net proceeds from sales are being used to pay the outstanding debt on Condor’s $150 million secured credit facility.
