Growth Strategy
Evolving Strategy 2014-2016 2017+ Building a portfolio within the Ireland recovery story Identified and exploited cyclical opportunity to acquire hotel assets under replacement cost Invested over 1Bn in acquiring almost 7,000 rooms across Ireland and UK Significant capital refurbishment programme commenced from mid 2014 Built out central management function Maturing into a large hotel company focused on exploiting new growth opportunities Operational excellence through revenue maximisation and driving cost efficiencies +1,200 new bedrooms by end 2018 Maintain Net Debt/EBITDA at or below 3.5x Seek to buy out remaining freeholds of leased assets with open market rent reviews Infill acquisitions in Ireland and targeted leasehold growth in the UK Consolidation phase largely completed Already well underway Page 20
Drive Portfolio Growth UK Strategy Become one of the largest hotel operators in the UK through leases and ownership Senior team has extensive experience of rolling out a new brand (Jurys Inn) in the UK: Acquisitions team sourced, financed and developed over 15 new hotels Operations team opened and operated over 20 hotels Opportunity exists in the upper 3 star and 4 star markets in large provincial UK cities: Market is fragmented - only Hilton and Holiday Inn have any significant presence Major brands have moved away from owned/leased to managed and increasingly franchise model can lead to dilution of brand standards Dalata is one of the few hotel operators in the 3 and 4 star markets that has a significant central office management structure to operate a large portfolio of hotels We believe space exists for a fresh new offering Carefully assess opportunities to grow Maldron and Clayton brands Focus on strong locations in the larger cities Strength of location is more important than speed of rollout Page 21
Drive Portfolio Growth Ireland Ireland: Portfolio Objectives Complete existing development pipeline of 740 rooms Reach the optimum market share in each of the key urban centres including Dublin, Cork, Limerick and Galway Seek to purchase freehold interests of leased assets with open market review clauses Continue to review existing hotels in portfolio to assess long term suitability Page 22
