Hotel Industry Performance Reports, Trends and Related Ad-Hoc Reports The SHARE Center Supporting Hotel-related Academic Research and Education

Table of Contents Introduction to Ad-Hoc Reports Trend Reports Pipeline Reports Custom HOST Reports Census Database Files, Prop & Room Counts, Ad-Hoc Industry Data Files, and Forecasts

Introduction to Ad-Hoc Reports

What is the difference between STAR reports and Ad-Hoc Reports? STAR Reports refer to the reports that are delivered to hotels that compare the subject property’s performance to the competitive set and to surrounding industry segments Hotels and companies have annual subscriptions which include STAR reports as well as other services The STAR reports are generated and delivered each month, week, and/or day. These are relied upon by managers, and by Sales and Operations departments.

What are Ad-Hoc Reports? STR generates many other reports for both hotel companies and a variety of additional third parties These reports provide performance information as well as additional data These reports can be requested on a one-time basis, hence the name “ad-hoc” reports Customers can select a specific industry segment or a user-defined group of hotels

How are Ad-Hoc Reports Used? Ad-Hoc reports can be used by developers for “Feasibility Studies”, when someone is analyzing whether to build a specific type of hotel in a specific location These reports can also be used for “Impact Analyses” when someone is trying to determine the past affect of some type of event (for example: a sporting or political event, a natural disaster, or a new tourist attraction) Ad-Hoc reports can also be used to gain a better understanding of the lodging industry in an area There are may other uses for ad-hoc reports

Trend Reports

What are Trend Reports? Trends are the most popular type of ad-hoc report Trend reports show historic hotel performance for an industry segment or user-defined set of properties Trend reports typically display monthly performance data for 5 years, although you can request 10 or 20 years of data. Trend reports can also include daily data or Segmentation data (Group/Transient/Contract)

Options for Selecting Hotels There are three different options when it comes to selecting hotels for a Trend report: You can choose a standard industry segment, based upon pre-defined geographic and non-geographic categories You can select hotels based upon a wide range of variables Or, you can choose a specific group of individual properties You can also request a “Radial Trend” based upon latitude/longitudes

Selecting Hotels using Industry Segments An industry segment can just be a geographic area such as a market, tract (sub-market), city, county, state, country, sub-continent, or continent: Nashville Market -- Nashville Downtown Tract Tennessee State -- Davidson County Germany -- Europe An industry segment can also be a combination of a geographic area and a non-geographic category such as scale, class, location, or type. So you could request country scale, market location, or tract class: Nashville Airport Location -- US Economy Scale London Luxury Class -- Tennessee Convention Type

Selecting Hotels based upon Variables For a Trend report, you can select hotels that meet a certain set of criteria Your query can include a wide range of variables including: Geographic fields -- Number of Rooms Non-geographic fields -- Age, Open Date Brand or Parent Company -- Management Company or Owner Operation (Corporate vs. Franchise) -- Ex-Affiliation Number of Floors -- Interior/Exterior Corridor Restaurant -- Meeting Space Type/Features (Ski, Spa, Golf, Boutique, Extended Stay, Conference, Convention, Casino, All-suites, Waterpark, Condotel) A full list of fields is available

Selecting Specific Individual Hotels There are times when you might want to select a specific set of individual properties You can request a “Participation List” which displays all the hotels that submit data to STR in an industry segment or based upon variables You can then select specific hotels from the list that you would like to have included in your Trend report When requesting a Trend, you can provide a list of STR numbers. These are the codes that STR uses to identify hotels.

Rules Related to Trend Reports You must select 4 or more participating hotels. If there is a month when all 4 hotels did not submit data for any reason (hotel not open, hotel did not report), data for that month will not appear. For that reason, it is advisable to select more than 4 hotels. There cannot be too high a percentage (based upon number of rooms) for a single hotel, brand, or parent company. If you have a problem, you will need to add or remove hotels until the percentages are okay. The US percentages are 40, 40, and 50. The non-US percentages are 50, 50, and 60.

More Rules Related to Trend Reports The sufficiency and percentage rules protect the confidentiality of the data, so as not to reveal too much about the performance of a single hotel or brand If you request multiple Trend reports, the hotels that you select on the separate Trends must differ by more than one participating hotel. This ensures that no one can isolate the data of a single hotel These same rules apply to Custom HOST Reports as well

Types of Data in a Trend Report By default, a Trend Report includes monthly data for 5 years. You can request 10 or 20 years of monthly data or specify a starting date back to 1987. You can also request special types of data: Twelve Month Moving Average data – great for graphing performance over time Quarterly data Daily data - back to 2000, great for Day of Week analyses or tracking special events Weekday/Weekend data – approximate business vs. leisure Segmentation data – separate Group, Transient, and Contract numbers (occupancy and ADR)

Requesting a Trend Report To request a Trend Report, you can email the Trend department: trend@str.com Professors from schools who are members of the SHARE Center can also email: steve@str.com maria@str.com The Trend staff can help you with your selection You can also specify a different currency if desired

Trend Report Fulfillment The normal turn-around time for a Trend is two business days, although there are times when there are a high volume of requests Trends are delivered via email Trend reports are in Excel format. This makes it easy to work with the raw data. You can sort data by day or month. You can graph actual numbers or percent changes over time. Trend reports are generally not available online due to confidentiality issues

Introduction to a Trend Report A Trend report is an Excel workbook with multiple tabs or pages displaying the various information and the different types of metrics There will be additional tabs or pages if you request any of the special types of data listed on the previous slide The next slides with step through all the various pages in a Trend report and describe all the information included on each page

Trend Table of Contents The Table of Contents displays the name or description of the Trend report The date range and currency are displayed There is internal information, including Job Number, STR staff, and report Creation Date The Table of Contents lists each tab or page included It can also include a “Pipeline Teaser”, displaying brief Pipeline data about the market

Application – Graphing Day of Week data ADR by Day of Week for the last three years Note the differences from year to year for each day of week

8 – Daily Raw Data The Daily Raw Data page displays values and percent changes for Occupancy, ADR, RevPAR, Supply, Demand, and Revenue per day for the date range selected There are columns for Date, Day (number), Month (number), Year, Day of Week (name), and Week (number) to facilitate sorting and subtotaling There are columns for Census Props and Rooms (the total number of hotels selected) and for STAR Participants (the percentage of hotels that submit STAR data based upon number of rooms)

Daily Raw Data

Application – Graphing Daily data Occupancy, ADR, and RevPAR Daily Values for January Daily data will show greater detail, such as weekends & special events

9 – Weekday / Weekend Trend The Weekday/Weekend Trend page displays separate values and percent changes for Occupancy, ADR, and RevPAR for both weekdays and weekends per month for every month in the date range There is also a monthly total number for perspective There are additional columns that display separate Supply, Demand, and Revenue Share numbers for both weekdays and weekends There are subtotals for Annual and YTD numbers

Weekday / Weekend Trend

Application – Graphing Weekday/Weekend data Occupancy by WD/WE for the last three years Weekday/weekend data helps compare business & leisure travel

Application – Graphing Segmentation data Group and Transient ADR Values For example, note where Group ADR is greater than Transient ADR

12 – Monthly Segmentation Raw Data The Monthly Segmentation Raw Data page is very similar to the prior page There is a single column for Supply, since supply for a hotel is not segmented. There are separate Demand and Revenue columns for Transient, Group, and Contract The section on the right displays the corresponding percent changes There are also Census Props, Rooms and Percent Participation columns

Monthly Segmentation Raw Data

13 – Raw (Monthly) Data The Raw Data page displays values and percent changes for Occupancy, ADR, RevPAR, Supply, Demand, and Revenue per month for the date range selected There are also Census Props, Rooms and Percent Participation columns This page displays the monthly data in a way that makes it very easy to create graphs on the values or the percent changes

Describe the options for selecting hotels when it comes to a Trend report Identify the different types of data available on a Trend report and the uses of that data Demonstrate the ability to graph data found in a Trend report

Pipeline Reports

What is a Pipeline Report? Pipeline Reports display statistics on existing hotels, hotels under construction and projects in planning for an area Reports include property detail on existing hotels and project detail on all pipeline projects Reports also show changes to existing supply, including opens, closes, room adds/drops, and conversions over time

Pipeline Stages Hotels that are in the Pipeline are referred to as “Projects” There are four different stages in the Pipeline: Under Construction – ground has been broken, or the owner is finalizing buds on the prime (general) contract Final Planning – the project will go out for bids or construction will start within 4 months Planning – initial approvals have been granted Pre-Planning – no architect has been selected

Requesting a Pipeline Report When requesting a Pipeline Report, you can specify a country, state, market or tract To request a Pipeline Report, you can email the Trend department: trend@str.com Professors from schools who are members of the SHARE Center can also email: steve@str.com maria@str.com

Introduction to a Pipeline Report Pipeline Reports are delivered via email. They are Excel workbooks with multiple tabs or pages displaying the various information and the different types of metrics The next slides with step through all the various pages in a Pipeline report and describe all the information included on each page Pipeline Reports are an important part of a thorough feasibility study, impact analysis, or development project

4 – Supply Changes The Changes to Existing Supply by Brand page shows changes to Supply by number of rooms for two time periods: the last 12 months and the last 60 months (1 year and 5 years). Numbers appear by brand with subtotals by Scale. The first column shows Existing Supply (the number of rooms) at the beginning of the time period The next section details the Adds including: New Builds – new open Conversions In – affiliation change to different brands Rooms Additions – expansion of existing hotel

More on Supply Changes The second section details the Removed Rooms including: Closed Conversions Out – affiliation change Rooms Removed – room drop, convert rooms to different use There is a column showing the Net Gain or Loss of rooms. The last column shows the Existing Supply (number of rooms) at the end of the time period This data provides a valuable perspective on the history of an area. It is possible to track hotels that convert out of one brand and into another, by following the number of rooms.

Custom HOST Reports

What is a HOST Report? A HOST Report displays annual Profit and Loss information, including Revenue, Expense, and Profit accounts A HOST report displays P&L data for a single year. It is possible to obtain reports for multiple years. There is a slightly different version of the report for Full- Service versus Limited Service. The Full-Service report includes numbers related to the operation of a restaurant. Hotels that just offer complimentary breakfast are not considered “Full-Service”.

Requesting a HOST Report When requesting a HOST report, you can specify a standard industry segment, a group of properties based on countless variables, or a user-defined set of individual hotels It is possible to request a HOST Participation Report that lists the hotels that submit HOST data in an area Since there are separate Full-Service and Limited- Service reports, you want to select hotels accordingly or you will need to get two reports

Who Uses HOST Reports? The HOST report provides valuable data. A Trend report shows the performance metrics (Occupancy, ADR, RevPAR for a group of hotels. A HOST reports shows profitability information for a group of hotels. You can track additional revenue amounts, beyond Room Revenues. You can also track various expense amounts. HOST reports can be used in the process of a feasibility study. They can also be an important part of a valuation process.

Introduction to HOST Reports HOST Reports list standard P&L accounts: Revenue: Rooms, Food, Beverage, Other F&B, Telecommunications, Other Operated Depts, Rentals and Other Income, Cancellation Fees Departmental Expense: Rooms, F&B, Telecom, Other Operated Depts & Rentals Departmental Profits: same as above Undistributed Operating Expenses: Administrative & General, Marketing, Utility Costs, Property Operation & Maintenance Gross Operating Profit: then Franchise Fees, Management Fees, and Income Before Fixed Charges Selected Fixed Charges: Property Taxes, Insurance, Reserve for Capital Replacement Amount Available for Debt Service

Introduction – More Accounts Additional P&L-related information appears at the bottom: Supplemental Payroll Analysis: Rooms, Total Food & Beverage, Telecommunications, Other Operated Depts, Administration & General, Marketing, Property Operations & Maintenance Supplemental Food & Beverage Information: Cost of Food Sales, Cost of Beverage Sales, Food & Beverage Payroll, Food & Beverage Other Expenses For detailed definitions of each account, refer to the Uniform Systems of Accounts for the Lodging Industry (10th) Edition

Introduction – Key Metrics For each of these accounts, the HOST Report displays three different metrics: Ratio to Sales (RTS) – the total Revenue or Expense divided by the total amount of Sales (Total Revenue) in most cases. The Ratio to Sales for Departmental Expenses and Profits (Rooms, F&B, Telecom) are based on the respective revenues. Amount Per Available Room (APR) – the total Revenue or Expense divided by the number of rooms in the hotel Amount Per Occupied Room (APO) – the total Revenue or Expense divided by the total annual number of occupied rooms for the hotel

HOST Table of Contents The Table of Contents page includes the date range of the data. This will be a single year. You will see either “Full-Service” or “Limited Service” There is a Name of the HOST report, describing the hotels selected There is a Creation Date, indicating when the report was generated The Table of Contents lists each tab or page included

Additional Ad-Hoc Reports & Data Files

What is a Census Database File? A Census Database file provides attribute information for hotels. This is different than performance or P&L data. There are nearly 100 fields of hotel information: name, address, and phone, geographic and non-geographic attributes, rack rates, meeting space, amenities, affiliations, dates, and latitude/longitude The file can provide valuable information about hotels in an area. This can be part of a feasibility project or a market overview. This data is also used by vendors who are marketing to the hotel industry.

Census Database Fields – complete list Property Name Membership Co1 ID Amenity-Shuttle (Y/N) Physical Address 1 Membership Company2 Name Amenity-Ski (Y/N) Physical Address 2 Membership Co2 ID Amenity-Spa (Y/N) Physical City Membership Company3 Name Amenity-Water Park (Y/N) Physical State Membership Co3 ID Amenity-Wi-Fi (Y/N) Physical Postal Code Guest Rooms Amenity-Golf (Y/N) Physical Country Suite Rooms Amenity-# Golf Holes Mailing Address 1 Total Rooms Amenity-Pool (Y/N) Mailing Address 2 Type-All-Inclusive Amenity-# Pools Mailing City Type-All-Suite Market Mailing State Type-B&B/Inn Tract Mailing Postal Code Type-Boutique County Intl Dialing Prefix Type-Condo Latitude Telephone Number Type-Conference Longitude Fax Number Type-Convention Region Email Type-Corporate Housing Subcontinent Name Website Type-Lifestyle Continent Name Open Date (YYYYMM) Type-Timeshare MSA Name Affiliation Date (YYYYMM) Affiliation Amenity-Bar/Lounge (Y/N) Total Meeting Space Chain ID Amenity-Beach (Y/N) Largest Meeting Space Parent Company Name Amenity-Casino (Y/N) # Floors Owner Company Name Amenity-Exercise Room (Y/N) Interior/Exterior Corridor Owner ID Amenity-Gift Shop (Y/N) Location Management Company Name Amenity-LEED Certified (Y/N) Tier Management ID Amenity-Marina (Y/N) Size Asset Management Company Name Amenity-Parking Garage (Y/N) Chain Scale Asset Mgmt ID Amenity-Retail Space (Y/N) Class Membership Company1 Name Amenity-Restaurant (Y/N)

Requesting a Census Database File When requesting a Census Database File, you can specify a standard industry segment, a group of properties based on variables, or a user-defined set of individual hotels Census Database Files are available for US and WW (non-US) hotels. Remember STR tracks additional hotels beyond ones that submit performance data. The data file is provided in an Excel format so that you can manipulate the data as desired

Census Database File

Property and Room Counts It is possible to obtain property and room counts for groups of hotels. This can be a very informative part of a market overview You can select a geographic area, such as country, state, or market. You can also select one or more subtotals, for example: Total US by State and Market, State by Scale and Brand, or Market by Location The Count Report displays number of properties and rooms for Census (all hotels) and Sample (ones that submit data to STR)

State of Tennessee by Market and Tract

Nashville Market by Brand

Ad-Hoc Industry Data Files Ad-hoc industry data files can be helpful when a user needs historic data (range of time periods) for a variety of US or WW industry segments The user can select the industry segments (markets, tracts, counties) and the date range (start/end month/day). You could also select the time period (current month, YTD, running 3 or 12-month) Raw data can be provided in Excel format. This option is not as attractive as a Trend report, but can be used when a volume of data is needed for research or analysis.

Contents of Ad-Hoc Industry Data Files Ad-hoc industry data files contain raw data: Supply, Demand, and Revenue. You can use these to calculate Occupancy, ADR, and RevPAR. There are also fields for Description (of the industry segment) and Date (either month in YYYYMM format or day in YYYYMMDD format) There are fields for Industry Segment ID (TR00=tract, CY00=county, MASC=market scale) and for the Primary Segment (6-number code for geographic segment) and for the Secondary Segment (1-number code for the Scale, Location, or Class)
