Het interview van gisteren eindigde in een tragedie voor Geraldine Kemper

Blake Lyon, Skyline’s Chief Executive Officer commented “The Renaissance hotel renovation, along with two other Courtyard hotel renovations, have materially affected our financial results in the short-term. Same asset revenue has decreased compared to 2022, due to the impact of hotel renovations, partially offset by travel activity that continues to rebound and Skyline continues to focus on efficiency initiatives. We reinvested some of the proceeds received during Q4 2021 from the sale of our Canadian resorts, in the acquisition of the Courtyard Ithaca, on July 11, 2022 and also in the significant renovation of the Renaissance and our Courtyard Dayton hotels. In Q4 2023, we sold Bear Valley ski resort, and the Company’s interest in RCLP. We continue to carefully manage our business in this environment of global volatility and rapid rise in interest rates.”

About Skyline
Skyline is a Canadian company that specializes in hospitality real estate investments in the United States and Canada. The Company currently owns 16 income-producing assets with 2,804 hotel rooms and 85,238 square feet of commercial space.
The Company is traded on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (ticker: SKLN) and is a reporting issuer in Canada.
The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). However, the following measures: NOI, FFO, FFO per share and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures recognized under IFRS and do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS, and should not be compared to or construed as alternatives to profit/loss, cash flow from operating activities or other measures of financial performance determined in accordance with IFRS. NOI, FFO, FFO per share and Adjusted EBITDA as computed by the Company, may differ from similar measures as reported by other companies in similar or different industries. However, these non-IFRS measures are recognized supplemental measures of performance for real estate issuers widely used by the real estate industry, particularly by those publicly traded entities that own and operate income-producing properties, and the Company believes they provide useful supplemental information to both management and readers in measuring the financial performance of the Company. Skyline also uses certain supplementary financial measures as key performance indicators. Supplementary financial measures are financial measures that are intended to be disclosed on a periodic basis to depict the historical or expected future financial performance, financial position, or cash flow, that are not disclosed directly in the financial statements and are not non-IFRS measures. Same Asset NOI is a financial measure that is calculated using the same methodology as NOI, but only including NOI from properties owned for 2 full years prior to December 31, 2023.
Further details on non-IFRS measures and Supplementary Financial Measures are set out in the Company’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis for the period ended December 31, 2023 and available on the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.com or MAGNA at www.magna.isa.gov.il and are incorporated by reference in this news release.
The reconciliations for each non-IFRS measure included in this news release are outlined as follows:
NOI
Skyline defines NOI as property revenues less property operating expenses. Management believes that NOI is a useful key indicator of performance on an unlevered basis as it represents a measure over which Management of property operations has control. NOI is also a key input used by management in determining the value of the Properties. NOI is used by industry analysts, investors and Management to measure operating performance of Canadian companies. NOI represents revenue from cash generating properties less property operating expenses excluding depreciation as presented in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income prepared in accordance with IFRS.
Given the seasonality of its hospitality operations, NOI for a fiscal year (or trailing four quarters) is considered by Management as a more accurate measure of the Company’s performance.
Skyline calculates NOI as operating income before depreciation, valuation adjustments and other income, adjusted for:
Alternatively, the same result is arrived at by adding segmented results (per note 12 in the consolidated financial statements) of the Company’s hotels and resorts. The following table sets out a reconciliation of NOI from hotels and resorts to operating income before depreciation, valuation adjustments and other income:
FFO
FFO is a non-IFRS financial measure of operating performance widely used by the real estate industry, particularly by those publicly traded entities that own and operate income-producing properties. FFO is not an alternative to net income determined in accordance with IFRS. Skyline calculates the financial measure in accordance with the Real Property Association of Canada White Paper issued in January 2022, except for (i) changes in the fair value of financial instruments which are economically effective hedges but do not qualify for hedge accounting, (ii) non-controlling interest, and (iii) operational revenue and expenses from right-of-use assets. The use of FFO, combined with the data required under IFRS, has been included for the purpose of improving the understanding of the operating results of Skyline.
Management believes that FFO provides an operating performance measure that, when compared period-over- period, reflects the impact on operations of trends in occupancy, room rates, operating costs and realty taxes and interest costs, and provides a perspective of the Company’s financial performance that is not immediately apparent from net income determined in accordance with IFRS. FFO excludes from net income items that do not arise from operating activities, such as fair value adjustments, purchase transaction costs, and deferred income taxes, if any. FFO, however, still includes non-cash revenues related to accounting for straight-line rent and makes no deduction for recurring capital expenditures necessary to sustain the Company’s existing earnings stream. It should be emphasized that the method of calculation of this indicator by the Company may differ from the method of calculation applied by other companies. The following table sets out a reconciliation of FFO to net income:
Adjusted EBITDA
The Company’s operations include income producing assets and revenue from the sale of developed real estate. As such, Management believes Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below) is a useful supplemental measure of its operating performance for investors and debt holders.
EBITDA is defined as Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization. The Company calculates Adjusted EBITDA as follows:
Adjusted EBITDA does not include fair value gains, gains on sale or other expenses, and is presented in the Company’s consolidated statement of profit and loss for year ended December 31, 2023 as operating income before depreciation, valuation adjustments and other income.
