Fibra Inn Announces its Hotel Indicators for October 2018

MONTERREY, Mexico, Nov. 13, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Deutsche Bank Mexico, S.A., Banking institution, Trust Division F/1616 or Fibra Inn (BMV: FINN13, ADR/OTC: DFBRY) (“Fibra Inn” or “the Company”), an internally-managed Mexican real estate investment trust specialized in the hotel industry serving the traveler with international brands, today announced its operating results for its hotel indicators for October 2018.

The 8.2% increase in Revenue per Available Room was due to:

1. An increase in occupancy of 2.7 percentage points, which reflected the inclusion of the results of the Holiday Inn México Coyoacan Hotel, which closed last year due to the Mexico City earthquake.
2. A 4.0% increase in the average daily rate, reflecting the benefits of implementing better sales strategies and promotions.             

Total Sales for October 2018 were:        

The same-store sales calculation included all the hotels that have been in Fibra Inn’s portfolio for at least half of the period under discussion. In this case, it is important to consider that the calculation for the month of October excluded two hotels: (i) the Casa Grande Ciudad Juarez Hotel, which remained closed from September 1, 2017 to August 14, 2018 due to its conversion to the Holiday Inn brand; and (ii) the Microtel Inn & Suites by Wyndham Culiacan, which was sold on August 27, 2018.

Fibra Inn has a portfolio of 42 total properties, with 6,786 rooms in operation. Additionally, Fibra Inn has a minority interest in four properties, currently being externally developed under the Hotel Factory model, representing 633 rooms.
