On August 12, 2026, Braemar Hotels & Resorts Inc. (“Braemar” or the “Company”) completed the sale of the Pier House Resort & Spa located in Key West, Florida for $190.0 million in cash, subject to customary prorations and adjustments.

The following unaudited pro forma financial information of the Company, as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and for the year ended December 31, 2025, has been prepared for informational purposes only and does not purport to be indicative of what would have resulted had the disposition occurred on the date indicated or what may result in the future. The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet assumes the disposition closed on June 30, 2026. The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025, and the six months ended June 30, 2026, assumes the disposition closed on January 1, 2025. The unaudited pro forma financial information of the Company reflects the removal of the assets and liabilities of the hotel property and its results of operations, which contains a non-recurring gain associated with the disposition of the hotel property. The pro forma gain resulting from the disposition of the hotel property is preliminary. Therefore, the actual results may differ from the amounts reflected in the pro forma financial statements.
