"We were pleased that the strengthening lodging fundamentals we saw throughout last year, especially in Urban markets, carried into the fourth quarter," commented Leslie D. Hale, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Relative to this improving backdrop, we successfully executed on our key initiatives, including capturing the recovery in Urban markets, launching all three of our conversions and entering the growth market of Nashville. We achieved these priorities while strengthening our balance sheet and returning capital to our shareholders through thoughtful share repurchases and dividend raises, including our most recent dividend raise of 60% beginning with this quarter. While the current environment remains uncertain, the continuing improvement in business travel, group booking momentum and the ongoing recovery in Urban leisure gives us confidence that Urban markets will continue to outperform the industry on a relative basis this year, which will benefit our Urban-centric portfolio."

Comparable occupancy for the fourth quarter of 2022 recovered to 89% of 2019 levels while comparable ADR achieved 105% of 2019 levels.

Acquisitions
In 2022, the Company acquired the 21c Hotel Nashville, a 124-room boutique lifestyle hotel in downtown Nashville for $59.0 million, or approximately $476,000 per key. The property was converted to a hotel in 2017, following the transformational conversion of the historic Gray & Dudley Building.
Conversions
The Company has successfully launched its three hotel conversions of The Mills House Hotel, a Curio Collection Hotel by Hilton in Charleston, South Carolina, Zachari Dunes on Mandalay Beach, a Curio Collection Hotel by Hilton in Oxnard, California and The Pierside Hotel, an independently branded lifestyle property located in Santa Monica, California. All three conversions are anticipated to outperform the Company's original underwriting and demonstrate the ability of the Company to unlock significant embedded value in the portfolio.
Share Repurchases
During 2022, the Company repurchased 4.9 million shares for $57.6 million, at an average price per share of $11.75, which included approximately 0.7 million common shares for $7.6 million at an average price per share of $10.66 during the fourth quarter.

In November 2022, the Company amended its term loan facility to increase it from $100.0 million to $200.0 million and extend its maturity to January 2026, with two one year extension options. The incremental $100.0 million of proceeds were funded in two tranches, with $5.0 million funded at closing in November 2022 and $95.0 million funded through a delayed draw feature in early 2023 that was used to repay $94.0 million maturing term loans in January 2023.
In January 2023, the Company exercised its option to extend the maturities of approximately $225.0 million of term loans to 2024.

Non-GAAP and Accounting Commentary
Non-Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("Non-GAAP") Financial Measures
The Company considers the following non-GAAP financial measures useful to investors as key supplemental measures of its performance: (1) FFO, (2) Adjusted FFO, (3) EBITDA, (4) EBITDAre, (5) Adjusted EBITDA, (6) Hotel EBITDA, and (7) Hotel EBITDA Margin. These Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered along with, but not as alternatives to, net income or loss as a measure of its operating performance. FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA, EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDA, Hotel EBITDA, and Hotel EBITDA Margin as calculated by the Company may not be comparable to other companies that do not define such terms exactly as the Company defines such terms.
Funds From Operations ("FFO")
The Company calculates Funds from Operations ("FFO") in accordance with standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, which defines FFO as net income or loss (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of real estate, impairment, the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles, plus depreciation and amortization, and adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have instead historically risen or fallen with market conditions, most real estate industry investors consider FFO to be helpful in evaluating a real estate company's operations. The Company believes that the presentation of FFO provides useful information to investors regarding the Company's operating performance and can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between real estate investment trusts ("REITs"), even though FFO does not represent an amount that accrues directly to common shareholders.
The Company's calculation of FFO may not be comparable to measures calculated by other companies who do not use the NAREIT definition of FFO or do not calculate FFO per diluted share in accordance with NAREIT guidance. Additionally, FFO may not be helpful when comparing the Company to non-REITs. The Company presents FFO attributable to common shareholders, which includes unitholders of limited partnership interest ("OP units") in RLJ Lodging Trust, L.P., the Company's operating partnership, because the OP units are redeemable for common shares of the Company. The Company believes it is meaningful for the investor to understand FFO attributable to all common shares and OP units.
EBITDA and EBITDAre
Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization ("EBITDA") is defined as net income or loss excluding: (1) interest expense; (2) income tax benefit or expense; and (3) depreciation and amortization expense. The Company considers EBITDA useful to an investor in evaluating and facilitating comparisons of its operating performance between periods and between REITs by removing the impact of its capital structure (primarily interest expense) and asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) from its operating results. In addition, EBITDA is used as one measure in determining the value of hotel acquisitions and dispositions.
In addition to EBITDA, the Company presents EBITDAre in accordance with NAREIT guidelines, which defines EBITDAre as net income or loss (calculated in accordance with GAAP) excluding interest expense, income tax benefit or expense, depreciation and amortization expense, gains or losses from sales of real estate, impairment, and adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures. The Company believes that the presentation of EBITDAre provides useful information to investors regarding the Company's operating performance and can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between REITs.
Adjustments to FFO and EBITDA
The Company adjusts FFO, EBITDA, and EBITDAre for certain items that the Company considers outside the normal course of operations. The Company believes that Adjusted FFO, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDAre provide useful supplemental information to investors regarding its ongoing operating performance that, when considered with net income or loss, FFO, EBITDA, and EBITDAre, are beneficial to an investor's understanding of the Company's operating performance. The Company adjusts FFO, EBITDA, and EBITDAre for the following items:
- Transaction Costs: The Company excludes transaction costs expensed during the period
- Pre-Opening Costs: The Company excludes certain costs related to pre-opening of hotels
- Non-Cash Expenses: The Company excludes the effect of certain non-cash items such as the amortization of share-based compensation, non-cash income tax expense or benefit, and non-cash interest expense related to discontinued interest rate hedges
- Other Non-Operational Expenses: The Company excludes the effect of certain non-operational expenses representing income and expenses outside the normal course of operations
Hotel EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA Margin
With respect to Consolidated Hotel EBITDA, the Company believes that excluding the effect of corporate-level expenses and certain non-cash items provides a more complete understanding of the operating results over which individual hotels and operators have direct control. The Company believes property-level results provide investors with supplemental information about the ongoing operational performance of the Company's hotels and the effectiveness of third-party management companies.
Comparable Hotel EBITDA and Comparable Hotel EBITDA Margin include prior ownership information provided by the sellers of the hotels for periods prior to our acquisition of the hotels and excludes results from sold hotels as applicable. The following is a summary of Comparable hotel adjustments:
