â–¼(-3.47% Downside)
Action:Reiterated
Date:05/22/26
BHR scores as a balanced-to-higher-risk idea: the largest drag is weaker recent revenue/earnings consistency alongside high leverage, despite positive operating margins and a return to positive free cash flow. Valuation is a key offset (very low P/E and high yield), while technicals are mixed (short-term stabilizing, longer-term still below key averages). Earnings-call takeaways and recent asset-sale/deleveraging actions are constructive but tempered by floating-rate debt exposure and strategic/dividend-policy uncertainty.
Positive Factors
Resort Portfolio Strength
Braemar's concentrated luxury resort portfolio shows durable pricing power and strong ancillary/group performance, driving higher RevPAR and hotel-level EBITDA. These high-RevPAR assets typically sustain margins and cash flow through cycles, supporting long-term property-level cash generation and repositioning upside.
Negative Factors
Elevated Leverage
A debt-heavy capital structure materially increases refinancing and solvency risk for a cyclical lodging owner. High leverage constrains strategic flexibility, amplifies earnings volatility after interest, and limits the company's ability to sustain distributions or absorb operating disruptions without further asset sales or capital raises.

Braemar Hotels & Resorts Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Date:Feb 26, 2026
(Q4-2025)
| % Change Since: |
Next Earnings Date:Aug 05, 2026
Earnings Call Sentiment Neutral
The call conveyed solid operational momentum in 2025—notably within the resort portfolio, group and ancillary revenue growth, strategic asset repositionings and a material 2025 capex program—supported by successful asset sale and partial deleveraging actions. However, Q4 produced a net loss and a slight negative AFFO, renovation and weather disruptions constrained near-term results, and the balance sheet still carries significant floating-rate debt and strategic uncertainty due to an ongoing sale process and no declared common dividend for 2026. Overall, operational positives are meaningful but balanced by financial losses, interest-rate exposure and transactional uncertainty.Positive Updates
Comparable Revenue and EBITDA Growth
Comparable total revenue grew 1.8% in Q4 2025 and 2.8% for full year 2025; adjusted EBITDAre was $28.8M for Q4 and $147.0M for the full year, reflecting improved operating profitability.
Negative Updates
Net Losses and Q4 AFFO Shortfall
Reported a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $46.0M in Q4 2025 (–$0.67 per diluted share) and a full-year net loss of $72.7M (–$1.07 per diluted share). Q4 AFFO per diluted share was negative $0.02, though full-year AFFO was $0.28.

Company Guidance
Management’s forward-looking guidance was limited but specific: they plan $25–$35 million of capital expenditures in 2026 (after ~$78 million invested in 2025), expect to continue redeeming non‑traded preferred stock (already redeemed $149 million, ~32% of the original raise) as part of a deleveraging strategy tied to an ongoing company sale process (no timetable) and therefore have not set a common dividend policy for 2026; recent transactional and balance‑sheet metrics supporting that guidance include the $115 million Clancy sale ($280k per key) that funded ~$65 million of debt paydown and ~$44 million of net proceeds, quarter‑end cash of $124.4 million plus $42.5 million restricted cash, $1.1 billion of loans with a blended interest rate of 6.7% (≈14% effectively fixed, ≈86% floating), total assets of ~$1.9 billion, net debt to gross assets of ~46.7%, 3,028 rooms, and 73.3 million fully diluted shares; operational results cited to underpin the outlook included Q4 comparable RevPAR of $340 (flat), resort RevPAR of $536 (+4.1%) with resort hotel EBITDA of $32.5 million (+6%), full‑year adjusted EBITDAre of $147 million, and management’s expectation that completed and ongoing renovations will drive future performance.Braemar Hotels & Resorts Financial Statement Overview
