NASHVILLE, Tenn., Nov. 03, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ryman Hospitality Properties, Inc. (NYSE: RHP), a lodging real estate investment trust (“REIT”) specializing in group-oriented, destination hotel assets in urban and resort markets, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020.

Third Quarter 2020 Highlights:

  • Third quarter 2020 gross advanced room night bookings of approximately 669,000 room nights for all future periods, of which approximately 158,000 or 24% were unrelated to rebooking efforts
  • Year to date through September 30, 2020 rebooked room nights of approximately 1.01 million room nights, or over 53% of total room nights canceled as a result of COVID-19
  • Overall Entertainment segment and Ole Red venues continue to see steady improvement while adhering to local health regulations
  • Average monthly cash burn for the third quarter 2020 was approximately $22.7 million, down approximately $8.9 million from second quarter 2020 driven by hotel reopenings and continued cost management
  • Continue to have ample liquidity as monthly cash burn continues to decline; currently have approximately 30 months of liquidity including Gaylord Palms expansion
  • Issued updated Investor Supplement on Ryman Hospitality, which is available on the Investor Relations section of our website at www.rymanhp.com

Colin Reed, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Ryman Hospitality Properties, said, “We are pleased with the results we achieved this quarter, driving sequential improvement from last quarter in terms of both revenue and monthly cash burn as we navigate this extraordinary period. Our unique hotel properties with their large footprints, diverse amenities, and reputation for best-in-class service continue to generate interest from “drive to” leisure guests. We have seen success in targeting families who want the opportunity to travel safely. With 100 million people living within 300 miles of our four open Gaylord hotel properties, we believe we are in a strong position to continue capitalizing on the demand for safe family travel options that are within a short driving distance from home.

We have also begun to see the return of some smaller groups to our hotels as corporate customers look to resume in-person gatherings. Although group cancellations continue, our core brand differentiators have driven a rebookings rate of over 53 percent.

Our Entertainment segment also delivered an improved performance and gained momentum throughout the quarter. Importantly, we are taking advantage of this period to drive broader digitization of our content and exploring new formats to showcase our growing catalogue of content.

The continued progress we are making to safely welcome guests on both sides of our business has contributed to a continued reduction in our average monthly cash burn during this period, which has supported our strong liquidity position and enabled us to maintain our focus on recovery.”
