\nApple Hospitality REIT, Inc. (NYSE: APLE) (the \u201cCompany\u201d or \u201cApple Hospitality\u201d) today announced the successful completion of refinancing transactions that further enhance the strength and flexibility of its conservative balance sheet and extend its staggered debt maturity schedule. On July 23, 2026, the Company entered into an amendment and restatement of its existing unsecured $1.2 billion credit facility (the “Main Credit Facility”), increasing total borrowing capacity under the facility to approximately $1.3 billion and extending the Company’s maturity schedule while achieving improved pricing terms across the majority of the credit agreement\u2019s leverage-based pricing grid. The Company also entered into an amendment and restatement of its $130 million term loan, increasing the amount of the term loan to $160 million and extending the maturity date by seven years (the \u201cSeven-Year Term Loan\u201d).<\/p>\n
\n\u201cWe are pleased to build upon the strength of our balance sheet and liquidity position with the successful execution of these refinancing transactions,\u201d commented Liz Perkins, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Apple Hospitality REIT. \u201cWe greatly appreciate the longstanding partnerships with our lenders and their continued confidence in our strategy, our disciplined track record, and the strength of our portfolio. With their support, we improved pricing and more favorably laddered and extended our debt maturity schedule, providing the Company with additional financial flexibility and liquidity to pursue strategic growth opportunities and capital allocation priorities in the coming years.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nThe Main Credit Facility comprises a term loan of $275 million with an extended maturity date of July 24, 2031; a term loan of $300 million with an extended maturity date of January 23, 2032; and a revolving credit facility of $700 million with an initial maturity date of July 24, 2030, which may be extended up to one year subject to certain conditions. Updates under the amended and restated credit agreement of the Main Credit Facility provide for additional capacity of $50 million under the revolving credit facility, improve certain financial covenants, and update pricing. The amended and restated credit agreement includes an accordion feature in which the amount of the total Main Credit Facility may be increased from approximately $1.3 billion to $1.75 billion. The pricing grid on the Main Credit Facility ranges from a SOFR rate plus 1.35% to 2.30%, depending on the specific loan and the Company\u2019s leverage ratio as calculated under the terms of the credit agreement.<\/p>\n
\nThe Seven-Year Term Loan has an extended maturity date of July 24, 2033. The updates to the Seven-Year Term Loan provide for an extension of the maturity date by seven years and an increase in the term loan amount from $130 million to $160 million, with the incremental $30 million funded at closing and to be used towards the Company\u2019s then-outstanding revolving credit facility balance and secured debt maturities. The credit agreement for the Seven-Year Term Loan includes an accordion feature in which the total facility may be increased from $160 million to $300 million. Pricing ranges from a SOFR rate plus 1.70% to 2.65%, depending on the Company\u2019s leverage ratio as calculated under the terms of the credit agreement.<\/p>\n
\nThe Company also successfully worked with its lenders to conform the pricing grid on two other unsecured credit facilities, totaling $470 million, to match the improved pricing under the Main Credit Facility. The amendments did not change the principal amounts of the two term loans or their maturity dates.<\/p>\n
\nFollowing the completion of these refinancing transactions, the Company has no significant debt maturities until 2029, reinforcing Apple Hospitality’s conservative, well-laddered debt maturity schedule and financial flexibility. The Company has extended the weighted average maturity of its total consolidated debt to nearly five years and has no outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit facility, preserving substantial available liquidity to support the Company\u2019s long-term growth strategy.<\/p>\n
