Innkeepers USA Trust Announces First Quarter Earnings
PALM BEACH, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 6, 2002--Innkeepers USA Trust (NYSE: KPA - news), a hotel real estate investment trust (REIT) and the nation's leading REIT owner of upscale, extended-stay hotel properties throughout the U.S., today announced results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2002.
Funds from operations (FFO) for the 2002 first quarter declined 41 percent to $12.4 million from $21.0 million for the same period in 2001. FFO per share fell 40 percent to $0.27 per share, compared to $0.45 for the first quarter of 2001. EBITDA declined to $17.5 million from $26.1 million in the first quarter of 2001, a decrease of 33 percent. Total revenue decreased to $16.4 million, down 2 percent from $16.7 million for the first quarter of 2001. Net loss was $4.0 million, or $(0.19) per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $3.5 million, or $(0.18) per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2001.
Operating Results
The lower results were attributable to the lingering effects of a sluggish economy and a dramatic decline in business travel, particularly in "fly-to" markets, where the company's hotels are heavily concentrated. The decrease in FFO resulted from a 22 percent decline in revenue per available room (RevPAR) from $84.90 to $65.96 for the company's 67 hotels. Occupancy declined 8 percent to 68 percent, and average daily rate (ADR) decreased 16 percent to $96.46. The RevPAR decrease for the first quarter reflects a 41 percent decline in RevPAR at the company's eight Silicon Valley, California, properties. These Silicon Valley hotels account for 22 percent of the company's percentage lease revenues for the 12 months ended March 31, 2002. Excluding Silicon Valley, Innkeepers' portfolio reported an average RevPAR decrease of 16 percent for the 2002 first quarter.
"The 22 percent decline in RevPAR for the first quarter was consistent with the first quarter guidance we provided in January 2002," said Jeffrey H. Fisher, Innkeepers chief executive officer and president. "At that time, we projected RevPAR would be down 21 percent in the first quarter, down 6 percent in the second, positive 3 percent in the third, and up 8 percent in the fourth quarter, for a total 2002 RevPAR decrease of 5 percent and FFO per share of $1.26.
"On a sequential basis, our monthly RevPAR declines have improved from January through the end of March 2002. In April, RevPAR declined approximately 10 percent, which is worse than the April assumption included in our second quarter projection. On a positive note, based on prior year comparables for Silicon Valley, occupancy levels improved to 81 percent in April, albeit at a significantly lower ADR, and occupancy at our 67 hotels improved to 76 percent. We continue to be adversely impacted in our fly-to
{PAGE}
markets, including Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Detroit, Hartford, Los Angeles, Seattle, Silicon Valley, and Washington, D.C., which, in total, account for 70 percent of the company's percentage lease revenues for the 12 months ending March 31, 2002.
"I'm hopeful that there will be a turnaround in the second half that will exert a positive impact on business travel and our `fly to' markets. With business transient demand still at relatively low levels, our operators have refocused their sales initiatives and marketing strategies on a different customer mix, e.g., the government sector and local events."
Earnings Guidance
"Based on April RevPAR results, we have revised our second quarter RevPAR guidance from down 6 percent to negative 11 percent. We also feel it is prudent to provide a range for our FFO per share guidance. Our revised FFO per share guidance range is $1.12 to $1.21 for 2002, based on a full-year RevPAR decline range of 7 percent to 9 percent," Fisher said.
FFO Per Share and RevPAR Ranges for 2002 FFO/Share
1st quarter $0.27 (actual) 2nd quarter $0.30 3rd quarter $0.33 to $0.37 4th quarter $0.22 to $0.27 Full year $1.12 to $1.21
RevPAR
1st quarter -22% (actual) 2nd quarter -11% 3rd quarter -2% to 3% 4th quarter 1% to 8% Full year -9% to -7%

{PAGE}
"Our assumptions for 2002 do not include the effects of any additional sales, acquisitions or development of new hotels, capital transactions or any other transactions that may occur in conjunction with the REIT Modernization Act, or otherwise," Fisher said.
"Once again, the strength of the Residence Inn brand, which accounts for two-thirds of our hotels, enabled us to post better-than-industry occupancy levels at those properties in the first quarter. Our 45 Residence Inn by Marriott hotels achieved 70 percent occupancy for the first quarter."
Dividend Update
The company paid a $0.08 common share dividend for the first quarter and a regular dividend of $0.53906 per Series A cumulative convertible preferred share. "In January, we estimated our common share dividend for 2002 would be between $0.50 and $0.60, based on FFO per share of $1.26. We are adjusting our estimated 2002 common share from $0.40 to $0.50, based on our revised FFO per share guidance of $1.12 to $1.21. Common share dividend amounts will be decided each quarter based on our actual results of operations, economic conditions, capital expenditure requirements and minimum dividend payout requirement."
Balance Sheet
David Bulger, Innkeepers' chief financial officer, treasurer and executive vice president, noted that the company continues to maintain a strong capital structure with among the lowest levered balance sheets and best debt coverage ratios in the industry. "Our earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA)-to-interest expense coverage ratio and EBITDA-to-fixed charge coverage ratio are 4.5 times and 2.1 times, respectively. Our debt-to-investment in hotels at cost ratio is 30 percent at March 31, 2002, and our weighted average interest rate on our total debt is 7.2 percent. Approximately 88 percent of our total debt is at fixed rates, with 87 percent of our total debt due in 2005 and beyond.
"Effective March 31, 2002, we amended our unsecured line of credit and relaxed various covenants pertaining to the year 2002. This amendment is effective until the end of the year and will enable the company to possess full borrowing capacity under the line of credit, assuming borrowing proceeds are used for acquisitions. The company may again have to amend the line of credit and relax various covenants for 2003."
Capital Expenditures
Bulger added that the company will continue to invest in its properties to ensure their competitive condition. "In 2002, we are committed to spending $20

LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT
[PHOTO OF DIANNE ORBISON]
Dear Shareholders:
It's been a very eventful year in the economy and the markets. We've seen a
major rally in the bond market, and a major sell off in stocks. Negative events,
questionable earnings reports, and unscrupulous corporate leadership is a lot of
weight for the stock market to carry. Investors are still not confident that the
market can bear the load, which contributed to the stock sell off during the
first half of the year.
A flight to quality is still underway, and this is not unusual when political,
social, and economic events hold uncertainty. In the period ended July 31, 2002,
strong fixed income performance (Lehman Aggregate Bond Index* at 7.84%) and very
weak equity performance (S&P 500 Index** at -23.63) was recorded. The difference
in returns between stocks and bonds, as measured by these two benchmark indices,
was near record levels.
We believe the capital markets will continue to be volatile and suggest that
investors adjust their expectations for a time-specific market recovery. Current
market conditions didn't happen overnight, and it has taken longer than expected
for a sustainable recovery to surface. Although most segments of the stock
market were down at the end of our reporting period, we believe valuations are
fair and better than they have been in six months.
The economy is growing, albeit slowly. We expect that U.S. growth, as measured
by GDP, will be a respectable 2.5 percent in 2002. Monetary policy is still
easy, and we expect no changes from the Federal Reserve in the near term.
Inflation is running less than two percent annually with little, if any,
increase expected.
Also, the underlying strength of the U.S. economy remains solid. The weakness of
the dollar, however, may benefit investors considering a greater allocation to
international investments. Consider having a periodic conversation with your
financial advisor about your goals, risk tolerance, and allocation strategy.
You will notice that all Advantus equity funds are included in this report. The
remaining Advantus Funds (fixed income and balanced) will be published in an
annual report to be dated September 30, 2002. We have combined the reports for
the funds into two mailings to achieve economies of scale in report preparation
and mailing. We are also moving forward with plans to combine Advantus Funds
prospectuses in the same way and for the same reasons.
This is my first letter to you as President of the Advantus Funds. Bill
Westhoff, former President and investment management veteran, retired in late
July, 2002 after 31 years of service to shareholders. I look forward to
communicating with
1
you on a regular basis and bringing you news of the economy, markets,
and Advantus.
Sincerely,
/s/ Dianne Orbison
Dianne Orbison
President, Advantus Funds

in returns between stocks and bonds, as measured by these two benchmark indices,
was near record levels.
We believe the capital markets will continue to be volatile and suggest that
investors adjust their expectations for a time-specific market recovery. Current
market conditions didn't happen overnight, and it has taken longer than expected
for a sustainable recovery to surface. Although most segments of the stock
market were down at the end of our reporting period, we believe valuations are
fair and better than they have been in six months.
The economy is growing, albeit slowly. We expect that U.S. growth, as measured
by GDP, will be a respectable 2.5 percent in 2002. Monetary policy is still
easy, and we expect no changes from the Federal Reserve in the near term.
Inflation is running less than two percent annually with little, if any,
increase expected.
Also, the underlying strength of the U.S. economy remains solid. The weakness of
the dollar, however, may benefit investors considering a greater allocation to
international investments. Consider having a periodic conversation with your
financial advisor about your goals, risk tolerance, and allocation strategy.
You will notice that all Advantus equity funds are included in this report. The
remaining Advantus Funds (fixed income and balanced) will be published in an
annual report to be dated September 30, 2002. We have combined the reports for
the funds into two mailings to achieve economies of scale in report preparation
and mailing. We are also moving forward with plans to combine Advantus Funds
prospectuses in the same way and for the same reasons.
This is my first letter to you as President of the Advantus Funds. Bill
Westhoff, former President and investment management veteran, retired in late
July, 2002 after 31 years of service to shareholders. I look forward to
communicating with
1
you on a regular basis and bringing you news of the economy, markets,
and Advantus.
Sincerely,
/s/ Dianne Orbison
Dianne Orbison
President, Advantus Funds
