About this update from Pebblebrook Hotel Trust
[{"type":"text","content":"\nPebblebrook Hotel Trust (NYSE: PEB) (the “Company” or “Pebblebrook”) announced today that on May 27, 2026, it successfully completed the sale of the 115-room Chamberlain West Hollywood Hotel (“Chamberlain”) in Los Angeles, California for $43.5 million to a third party.\n\n\nFor the trailing twelve months ended April 30, 2026, the hotel generated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”) of $3.0 million and net operating income (“NOI”) of $2.6 million, assuming a capital reserve of 4.0% of total hotel revenues.

This enabled the Company to retire these preferred shares at a 23% discount to their liquidation preference, further reducing preferred equity outstanding to $720.6 million.\n\n\nSince late 2025, Pebblebrook has continued its disciplined capital allocation strategy, using net property sales proceeds and free operating cash flow to strengthen its balance sheet and increase long-term per-share value. Over this period, the Company has reduced outstanding debt by nearly $160 million, retired preferred shares with an aggregate liquidation preference of $47 million at an ...
