Due to the company's restructuring at its IPO in June 2004, many full year 2005 year-over-year comparisons are not representative of performance. "Same store" hotel comparisons for the full year 2005 are derived from the company's North American portfolio at December 31, 2005, excluding properties held for less than two fiscal years (the Ritz-Carlton Half Moon Bay, acquired on August 24, 2004, the InterContinental Chicago and InterContinental Miami, both acquired on April 1, 2005, and the Fairmont Chicago acquired on September 1, 2005) and excluding the Hyatt Regency New Orleans, which was taken out of service on August 29, 2005, due to damage from Hurricane Katrina. "Same store" hotel comparisons for the fourth quarter 2005 are derived from the company's North American portfolio at December 31, 2005, excluding properties held for less than five quarters (the InterContinental Chicago and InterContinental Miami, both acquired on April 1, 2005, and the Fairmont Chicago acquired on September 1, 2005) and excluding the Hyatt Regency New Orleans.

Total North American portfolio comparisons are derived from the company's hotel portfolio at December 31, 2005, which includes newly acquired properties, excludes the Hyatt Regency New Orleans, and includes comparisons with operating statistics in periods prior to ownership by the company.

Laurence Geller, chief executive officer of Strategic Hotels & Resorts, commented, "Our first full year as a public company was by all measures, clearly a spectacular success. We achieved all of our goals for the year including generating broad growth across our portfolio, selectively adding properties with strong real estate underpinnings, developing our multi-year internal investment strategy, creating a strong balance sheet, and most recently removing the overhang from our sponsoring shareholders while generating one of the highest total shareholder returns for all REITs. I am particularly proud of our internal investments in highly skilled human capital to support our myriad of activities and our rigorous, multi-disciplined, research driven approach supporting thoughtful analysis and decisions that have permitted us to bring the company so far in one year."

In addition, the pricing was reduced by 56 basis points to LIBOR plus 85 basis points.

The combined facilities have $246.0 million outstanding and provided $229.0 million of unused capacity at year end.

(a) REIT hotel operating data above excludes the results of operations of the distributed assets that are required to be included in GAAP financial statement presentations prior to the date of the IPO because we are deemed to have continuing involvement as a result of our agreement to asset manage those assets. In addition, REIT hotel operating data above also excludes the results of operations of hotels sold. As a result, we have presented only REIT hotel operating results and a reconciliation of REIT hotel income to net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

REIT hotel operating results are presented because we believe that it most fairly represents comparable period-to-period performance of our hotels and facilitates comparisons with other hotel REITs and hotel owners. Because of the elimination of the non-REIT hotel operations, the REIT hotel operating results do not represent our total revenues, expenses or operating profit in accordance with GAAP. These results should be considered in combination with our GAAP financial statements by investors when evaluating our performance.

(b) Until March 1, 2004, the Hamburg Marriott was accounted for under the equity method. After March 1, 2004 when we acquired our joint venture partner's 65% leasehold interest in the property, we record lease revenue for the Hamburg Marriott. Lease revenue for the year ended December 31, 2004 includes revenues from the Hyatt Regency New Orleans until June 29, 2004 when we converted the Hyatt Regency New Orleans lease to a management agreement. Prior to June 29, 2004, the Paris Marriott Champs Elysees was accounted for as a finance obligation and we consolidated its results because of a continuing involvement in supporting the financing of the property through a collateralized guarantee. On June 29, 2004, we recorded a sale and leaseback related to the Paris Marriott Champs Elysees. Subsequent to June 29, 2004, we earn only lease revenue from the Hamburg Marriott and the Paris Marriott Champs Elysees.

(c) Other income, net includes our equity in earnings or losses of our investment in the Prague hotel joint venture for the three months and years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 as well as earnings or losses from our investment in the Hamburg Marriott hotel joint venture are included in the year ended December 31, 2004 until the acquisition of our joint venture partner's interest in the property on March 1, 2004.

(d) There are two components to our minority interests. First, we reflect minority interests related to the InterContinental Chicago and Miami hotels on the balance sheet for the 15% portion of the properties consolidated by us, but not owned by us. The $11,616,000 minority interest balance was established based on the historical book value of the assets at the time of the transaction. The earnings or losses from these properties attributable to minority interests are normally reflected as minority interests in the statements of operations; however, based on the partnership agreements with IHG, we receive a preferred return of all the net cash flow (as defined in the agreements) at the properties through December 31, 2005, up to a certain threshold. The threshold was not exceeded in 2005; therefore no earnings or losses from these properties have been reflected as adjustments to minority interests. Second, minority interest in SHC Funding on the consolidated balance sheets is calculated by dividing the number of units held by the minority interests by the sum of SHCI's units and the units held by the minority interests, all calculated based on the units outstanding at the end of the period. Net income (loss) is allocated to minority interests in SHC Funding based on their weighted average ownership percentages during the period. The ownership percentage is calculated by dividing the number of units held by the minority interests by the sum of SHCI's units and the units held by the minority interests, all calculated based on the weighted average days outstanding.

(e) We have an asset management agreement with SHC LLC, under which we manage the day-to-day business of SHC LLC for an initial annual fee of $5,000,000, payable monthly in arrears. The term of the agreement is for five years, commenced on June 29, 2004 and will renew unless prior written notice is given. In addition, SHC LLC has the right to terminate the agreement if certain events occur. SHC LLC recently sold three properties in 2005 and one property in 2006. As a result of the disposition of these properties, the asset management fee was reduced by approximately $2.2 million annually.

December 31, 2005 Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to REIT hotel income, six other non-GAAP financial measures are presented for the Company that we believe are useful to investors as key measures of our operating performance: Funds from Operations (FFO); Fully Converted FFO; and Comparable FFO; Earnings Before Interest Expense, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA); and Adjusted EBITDA; and Comparable EBITDA. Reconciliation of these measures to net income (loss) available to common shareholders, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, is set forth in the following tables.

We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, which adopted a definition of FFO in order to promote an industry-wide standard measure of REIT operating performance that would not have certain drawbacks associated with net income (loss) under GAAP. NAREIT defines FFO as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding gains or (losses) from sales of property plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for our portion of these items related to unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We also present Fully Converted FFO, which is FFO plus convertible debt interest expense and minority interest expense on convertible minority interests. We also present Comparable FFO, which is Fully Converted FFO excluding the impact of any gains or losses on early extinguishment of debt and impairment losses. We believe that the presentation of FFO, Fully Converted FFO and Comparable FFO provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations because they are measures of our ability to fund capital expenditures and expand our business. In addition, FFO is widely used in the real estate industry to measure operating performance without regard to items such as depreciation and amortization.

EBITDA represents net income (loss) available to common shareholders excluding: (i) interest expense, (ii) income tax expense, including deferred income tax benefits and expenses applicable to our foreign subsidiaries and income taxes applicable to sale of assets; and (iii) depreciation and amortization. EBITDA also excludes interest expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization of our equity method investments. EBITDA for 2005 and 2004 is presented on a full participation basis, which means we have assumed conversion of all operating partnership minority interests into the Company's common shares. We believe this treatment of minority interest provides more useful information for management and our investors and appropriately considers our current capital structure. We also present Adjusted EBITDA, which eliminates the effect of realizing deferred gains on our sale leasebacks. We also present Comparable EBITDA, which eliminates the effect of gains or losses on sales of assets and early extinguishment of debt and impairment losses. We believe EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Comparable EBITDA are useful to management and investors in evaluating our operating performance because they provide management and investors with an indication of our ability to incur and service debt, to satisfy general operating expenses, to make capital expenditures and to fund other cash needs or reinvest cash into our business. We also believe they help management and investors meaningfully evaluate and compare the results of our operations from period to period by removing the impact of our asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) from our operating results. Our management also uses EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Comparable EBITDA as measures in determining the value of acquisitions and dispositions.

We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our definitions of FFO, Fully Converted FFO, Comparable FFO, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Comparable EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other companies, since not all companies calculate these non-GAAP measures in the same manner. FFO, Fully Converted FFO, Comparable FFO, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Comparable EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative measure of our net income (loss) or operating performance. FFO, Fully Converted FFO, Comparable FFO, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Comparable EBITDA may include funds that may not be available for our discretionary use due to functional requirements to conserve funds for capital expenditures and property acquisitions and other commitments and uncertainties. Although we believe that FFO, Fully Converted FFO, Comparable FFO, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Comparable EBITDA can enhance your understanding of our financial condition and results of operations, these non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed individually, are not necessarily a better indicator of any trend as compared to comparable GAAP measures such as net income. In addition, you should be aware that adverse economic and market conditions might negatively impact our cash flow. Below, we have provided a quantitative reconciliation of FFO, Fully Converted FFO, Comparable FFO, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Comparable EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP financial performance measure, which is net income (loss) available to common shareholders, and provide an explanatory description by footnote of the items excluded from FFO, Fully Converted FFO, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. Prior year amounts have been adjusted to conform to the current year presentation of a fully converted basis.
