ACQUISITION ACQUISITIONIn the 2025 second quarter, we announced that we reached an agreement with citizenM Holding BV and certain of its affiliates (the “seller”) to acquire the citizenM brand and related intellectual property for $355 million, and we completed the acquisition in the 2025 third quarter. In addition, we may pay earn-out payments to the seller up to $110 million, based on the future growth of the brand over a specified, multi-year timeframe. Earn-out payments would not begin until the fourth year following closing of the transaction. As of September 30, 2025, the citizenM portfolio included 37 open select-service hotels (8,789 rooms), which we expect to integrate into our system and platforms in the 2025 fourth quarter. We accounted for the transaction as an asset acquisition and allocated the cost of the acquisition, including direct and incremental transaction costs, on a relative fair value basis, to an indefinite-lived brand asset of approximately $289 million and contract assets, with a weighted-average term of 20 years, totaling $60 million
