Action:ReiteratedDate:03/12/26
The score is driven primarily by solid operating performance and constructive forward commentary (strong bookings/liquidity), tempered by meaningful balance-sheet leverage and a clearly weak technical setup. Valuation is helped by the strong dividend yield, while recent refinancing and expanded credit capacity modestly support the outlook.
Positive Factors
Forward Group Bookings
Substantial forward group bookings and on-the-books group revenue provide durable revenue visibility for a convention-focused REIT. Multi-day group demand boosts ADR and ancillary spend (banquets, AV, F&B), supporting steadier cash flow and insulating results from purely transient leisure volatility.
Negative Factors
High Leverage
The company’s capital structure remains debt-heavy and pro forma net leverage is elevated (~4.3x per guidance), which amplifies sensitivity to interest rates and cyclical downturns. High leverage constrains flexibility, increases covenant and refinancing risk, and limits ability to pursue opportunistic investments without more liquidity.

Company Guidance
Management's 2026 guidance at the midpoint assumes same-store hospitality RevPAR growth of 2.5% (same-store total RevPAR +2.5%), same-store hospitality adjusted EBITDAre consistent with ~2.5% operating expense growth or roughly 10 bps of margin expansion, and a JW Marriott Desert Ridge first full-year adjusted EBITDAre contribution (meeting-space conversion opens April 2026); the Entertainment midpoint implies nearly 10% adjusted EBITDAre growth with 2026 seasonality weighted to Q2. Near-term, management expects Q1 same-store RevPAR and total RevPAR to be roughly flat, hospitality adjusted EBITDAre margin to decline ~100 bps, and Entertainment Q1 adjusted EBITDAre to fall by several million dollars. Booking and pace metrics underpinning the guide include same-store group rooms revenue on the books for 2026 up ~6% (2027 up ~5%), ADR on the books pacing mid-single-digits, December 2025 bookings ADR +>10% vs prior year, more than 1.2M gross group room nights booked in Q4, and entering the year with ~50 points of occupancy on the books. Financial posture assumes $350–$450M of 2026 capex (primarily hospitality), unrestricted cash $471M, total available liquidity ~ $1.3B (pro forma ~ $1.4B after increasing the revolver to $850M), pro forma net leverage ~4.3x, a Fitch upgrade to BB (TLB margin cut from 200 bps to 175 bps), and a Q1 dividend of $1.20 payable April 15, 2026.Ryman Financial Statement Overview
