Park Hotels & Resorts Inc. reported its financial results for the third quarter and the nine months ended September 30, 2024, reflecting notable changes in revenue, profitability, and strategic activities compared to the previous fiscal period.
Total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2024, were $649 million, a decrease from $679 million in the same period of 2023. For the nine months, revenues also declined to $1,974 million from $2,041 million year-over-year. The decline in revenue was primarily attributed to reduced rooms revenue, which fell to $403 million from $432 million in Q3 2023, and to $1,193 million from $1,256 million for the nine-month period. However, food and beverage revenue showed slight growth, increasing to $521 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $518 million in 2023.
Despite the revenue decline, the company reported improved profitability. Operating income for the three months ended September 30, 2024, rose to $95 million, up from $85 million in the prior year. For the nine months, operating income surged to $308 million from $67 million. Net income for the third quarter was $57 million, compared to $31 million in Q3 2023, while net income for the nine months reached $153 million, a significant recovery from a net loss of $82 million in the same period last year. Earnings per share (EPS) also improved, with basic EPS for Q3 2024 at $0.26, up from $0.13 in Q3 2023.
Strategically, Park Hotels engaged in several significant transactions. The company sold the Hilton La Jolla Torrey Pines in July 2024 for approximately $165 million, recognizing a gain of about $19 million. Additionally, the company repurchased approximately 2.5 million shares of common stock for $35 million during the quarter. However, challenges remain, particularly regarding the Hilton San Francisco Hotels, which were placed into receivership in October 2023 following the cessation of debt service payments on a $725 million non-recourse CMBS loan.
Financially, as of September 30, 2024, Park Hotels had total assets of $9,173 million, down from $9,419 million at the end of 2023. Total debt increased to $3,855 million from $3,765 million, while total liabilities decreased to $5,466 million from $5,651 million. The company maintained cash and cash equivalents of $480 million, with an additional $38 million in restricted cash.
Overall, while Park Hotels faced revenue declines, it demonstrated improved profitability and continued strategic asset management amidst ongoing challenges in its portfolio.
