AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) 1. Organization and Description of Business Braemar Hotels & Resorts Inc., together with its subsidiaries (“Braemar”), is a Maryland corporation that invests primarily in high revenue per available room (“RevPAR”) luxury hotels and resorts. High RevPAR, for purposes of our investment strategy, means RevPAR of at least twice the then-current U.S. national average RevPAR for all hotels as determined by STR, LLC. Braemar has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Braemar conducts its business and owns substantially all of its assets through its operating partnership, Braemar Hospitality Limited Partnership (“Braemar OP”). Terms such as the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” refer to Braemar Hotels & Resorts Inc. and, as the context may require, all entities included in its condensed consolidated financial statements. We are advised by Ashford Hospitality Advisors LLC (“Ashford LLC” or the “Advisor”) through an advisory agreement. Ashford LLC is a subsidiary of Ashford Inc. All of the hotel properties in our portfolio are currently asset-managed by Ashford LLC. We do not have any employees. All of the services that might be provided by employees are provided to us by Ashford LLC. We do not operate any of our hotel properties directly; instead, we contractually engage hotel management companies to operate them for us under management contracts. Remington Lodging & Hospitality, LLC (“Remington Hospitality”), a subsidiary of Ashford Inc., manages five of our 14 hotel properties as of September 30, 2025. Third-party management companies manage the remaining hotel properties. Ashford Inc. also provides other products and services to us or our hotel properties through certain entities in which Ashford Inc. has an ownership interest. These products and services include, but are not limited to, design and construction services, debt placement and related services, broker-dealer and distribution services, audio visual services, real estate advisory and brokerage services, insurance policies covering general liability, workers compensation and business automobile claims, insurance claims services, hypoallergenic premium rooms, watersport activities, travel/transportation services and cash management services. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries of Braemar OP that as of September 30, 2025, own 14 hotel properties in six states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands (“USVI”). The portfolio includes 13 wholly-owned hotel properties and one hotel property that is owned through a partnership in which Braemar OP has a controlling interest. These hotel properties represent 3,438 total rooms, or 3,298 net rooms, excluding those attributable to our partner. As a REIT, Braemar is required to comply with limitations imposed by the Code related to operating hotels. As of September 30, 2025, 13 of our 14 hotel properties were leased by wholly-owned or majority-owned subsidiaries that are treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRS”) for federal income tax purposes (collectively, the TRS entities are referred to as “Braemar TRS”). One hotel property, located in the USVI, is owned by our USVI TRS. Braemar TRS then engages third-party or affiliated hotel management companies to operate the hotel properties under management contracts. Hotel operating results related to the hotel properties are included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of September 30, 2025, 12 of the 14 hotel properties were leased by Braemar’s wholly-owned TRS and the one hotel property majority-owned through a consolidated partnership was leased to a TRS wholly-owned by such consolidated partnership. Each leased hotel is leased under a percentage lease that provides for each lessee to pay in each calendar month the base rent plus, in each calendar quarter, percentage rent, if any, based on hotel revenues. Lease revenue from Braemar TRS is eliminated in consolidation as of September 30, 2025. The hotel properties are operated under management contracts with Marriott Hotel Services, LLC (“Marriott”), Hilton Management LLC (“Hilton”), Four Seasons Hotels Limited (“Four Seasons”), Hyatt Corporation (“Hyatt”), The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company, L.L.C. and its affiliates, each of which is also an affiliate of Marriott (“Ritz-Carlton”), and Remington Hospitality, which are eligible independent contractors under the Code. 2. Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation —The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Braemar Hotels & Resorts Inc., its majority-owned subsidiaries, and its majority-owned entities in which it has a controlling interest. All intercompany accounts and transactions between consolidated entities have been eliminated in these condensed consolidated financial statements. We have condensed 9 BRAEMAR HOTELS & RESORTS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) (unaudited) or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. We believe the disclosures made herein are adequate to prevent the information presented from being misleading. However, the financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 12, 2025. Braemar OP is considered to be a variable interest entity (“VIE”), as defined by authoritative accounting guidance. A VIE must be consolidated by a reporting entity if the reporting entity is the primary beneficiary because it has: (i) the power to direct the VIE’s activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance; and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE. All major decisions related to Braemar OP that most significantly impact its economic performance, including but not limited to, operating procedures with respect to business affairs and any acquisitions, dispositions, financings, restructurings or other transactions with sellers, purchasers, lenders, brokers, agents and other applicable representatives, are subject to the approval of our wholly-owned subsidiary, Braemar OP General Partner LLC, its general partner. As such, we consolidate Braemar OP. The following items affect reporting comparability of our historical condensed consolidated financial statements: • Historical seasonality patterns at some of our hotel properties cause fluctuations in our overall operating results. Consequently, operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025. • On July 17, 2024, we sold the Hilton La Jolla Torrey Pines. The operating results of the hotel property were excluded from our results of operations as of the disposition date. • On August 7, 2025, we sold the Marriott Seattle Waterfront. The operating results of the hotel property were excluded from our results of operations as of the disposition date. Use of Estimates —The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Recently Issued Accounting Standards —In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures , to expand the disclosure requirements for income taxes, specifically related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective for our annual periods beginning January 1, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The amendments in this ASU may be applied prospectively by providing the revised disclosures for the period ending December 31, 2025 and continuing to provide the pre-ASU disclosures for the prior periods, or the amendments may be applied retrospectively by providing the revised disclosures for all periods presented. As of September 30, 2025, the Company has not adopted this ASU. The adoption of this ASU is expected to only impact disclosures with respect to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03 , Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses that requires more detailed information about specified categories of expenses (purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and depletion) included in certain expense captions presented on the face of the statement of operations. In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01 which amends the effective date of the new disaggregation of income statement expenses standard to clarify that all public business entities are required to adopt the guidance in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is still permitted. The amendments may be applied either: (1) prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU: or (2) retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating the impact this ASU will have on our disclosures. 10 BRAEMAR HOTELS & RESORTS INC.

Land Acquisition On April 4, 2025, the Company acquired an eight acre parcel of land with an estimated fair value of $ 12.6 million. The consideration consisted of cash of approximately $ 5.5 million and a 25 % equity interest in the acquiring entity (“CR JV”) with an estimated fair value of $ 1.8 million. CR JV also assumed a mortgage loan for the land with an estimated fair value of $ 5.4 million. We accounted for this acquisition as an asset acquisition because substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired was concentrated in a group of similar identifiable assets. The cost of the acquisition including transaction costs was allocated to the individual asset acquired and liabilities assumed on a relative fair value basis, which is considered a Level 3 valuation technique. 5. Hotel Dispositions On July 17, 2024, the Company sold the Hilton La Jolla Torrey Pines for $ 165 million in cash, subject to customary pro-rations and adjustments. The Company owned an indirect 75 % equity interest in the hotel property. Additionally, the Company repaid the $ 66.6 million mortgage loan secured by the hotel property. The sale resulted in a gain of approximately $ 88.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. On August 7, 2025, the Company sold the Marriott Seattle Waterfront for $ 145 million in cash, subject to customary pro-rations and adjustments. Additionally, the Company repaid approximately $ 88.4 million on the mortgage loan that was partially secured by the hotel property. The sale resulted in a gain of approximately $ 41.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, and is included in “gain (loss) on disposition of assets and hotel property” in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. 12 BRAEMAR HOTELS & RESORTS INC.

As of September 30, 2025, the conversion rate is 195.8127 shares per $1,000 principal amount of notes. If we violate covenants in any debt agreement, we could be required to repay all or a portion of our indebtedness before maturity at a time when we might be unable to arrange financing for such repayment on attractive terms, if at all. The assets of certain of our subsidiaries are pledged under non-recourse indebtedness and are not available to satisfy the debts and other obligations of the consolidated group. As of September 30, 2025, we were in compliance with all covenants. Interest Rate Derivatives —We use interest rate caps to hedge our debt and our cash flows, which are recorded at fair value. Payments from counterparties on in-the-money interest rate caps are recognized as realized gains on our condensed consolidated statements of operations. See note 8 . 7. Note Receivable On July 2, 2024, Braemar, Ashford Hospitality Trust, Inc. (“Ashford Trust”) and Ashford Inc. (collectively with the Company, Ashford Trust and each of Ashford Inc.’s, the Company’s and Ashford Trust’s respective affiliates (including Stirling Hotels & Resorts, Inc.) and any entity advised by Ashford Inc., the “Company Group”) entered into a Cooperation Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Blackwells Capital LLC, Blackwells Onshore I LLC, Blackwells Holding Co. LLC, Vandewater Capital Holdings, LLC, Blackwells Asset Management LLC, BW Coinvest Management I LLC and Jason Aintabi (collectively, the “Blackwells Parties”) regarding the withdrawal of the Blackwells Parties’ proxy campaign, dismissal of pending litigation involving the parties and certain other matters. Concurrently and in connection with the Agreement, certain of the parties thereto have also entered into a Share Ownership Agreement (the “Share Ownership Agreement”) and a Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”), pursuant to which agreements the Company will provide to BW Coinvest I, LLC (“Borrower”) an unsecured loan (the “Loan”). The proceeds from the Loan will be used to reimburse Borrower for 70 % of the amount expended by Borrower to purchase on the open market a total of 3,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Purchased Shares”) within six months of the date of Loan Agreement, 14 BRAEMAR HOTELS & RESORTS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) (unaudited) at a price per Purchased Share not to exceed $ 10 and subject to the other limitations set forth therein. The Loan has a term of five years (the “Term”), is guaranteed by Jason Aintabi, Vandewater Capital Holdings, LLC, Blackwells Holding Co. LLC, and Blackwells Asset Management LLC and shall bear payment-in-kind interest during the Term at a rate equal to the sum of: (a) Term SOFR (as defined in the Loan Agreement) and (b) 3.00 % (three hundred basis points) per annum. The Company has agreed to reimburse Blackwells Capital LLC, in an amount agreed upon by the parties, for the Blackwells Parties’ reasonable due diligence expenses incurred on or prior to the date of the Share Ownership Agreement. As of September 30, 2025, the Company has advanced approximately $ 8.1 million that has been used to purchase 3.5 million shares of Braemar common stock. The note receivable is summarized in the table below (dollars in thousands): Line Item Interest Rate September 30, 2025 December 31, 2024 Note receivable SOFR + 3.00 % $ 8,747 $ 8,283 We recognized interest income as presented in the table below (in thousands): Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, Line Item 2025 2024 2025 2024 Interest income $ 157 $ 67 $ 464 $ 67 We review receivables for impairment each reporting period. Under the model, the Company estimates credit losses over the entire contractual term of the instrument from the date of initial recognition of that instrument and is required to record a credit loss expense (or reversal) in each reporting period. Our assessment of impairment is based on considerable management judgment and assumptions. No impairment charges were recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. 8. Fair Value Measurements Fair Value Hierarchy —Our financial instruments measured at fair value either on a recurring or a non-recurring basis are classified in a hierarchy for disclosure purposes consisting of three levels based on the observability of inputs in the marketplace as discussed below: • Level 1: Fair value measurements that are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that we have the ability to access for identical assets or liabilities. Market price data generally is obtained from exchange or dealer markets. • Level 2: Fair value measurements based on inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. • Level 3: Fair value measurements based on valuation techniques that use significant inputs that are unobservable. The circumstances for using these measurements include those in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. The fair value of interest rate caps are determined using the market standard methodology of discounting the future expected cash receipts that would occur if variable interest rates rose above the strike rates of the caps. Variable interest rates used in the calculation of projected receipts and payments on the caps are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves (SOFR forward curves) and volatilities (Level 2 inputs). We also incorporate credit valuation adjustments (Level 3 inputs) to appropriately reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk. When a majority of the inputs used to value our derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. However, when the valuation adjustments associated with our derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, to evaluate the likelihood of default by us and our counterparties, which we consider significant ( 10 % or more) to the overall valuation of our derivatives, the derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Transfers of inputs between levels are determined at the end of each reporting period. In determining the fair values of our derivatives at September 30, 2025, the SOFR interest rate forward curve (Level 2 inputs) assumed a downtrend from 4.129 % to 3.087 % for the remaining term of our 15 BRAEMAR HOTELS & RESORTS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) (unaudited) derivatives. Credit spreads (Level 3 inputs) used in determining the fair values derivatives assumed an uptrend in nonperformance risk for us and all of our counterparties through the maturity dates. Investment in securities includes mortgage-backed securities. These securities are classified as available for sale and are generally reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs where the Company obtains fair value measurements from an external pricing vendor. Prices received from the vendor are analyzed based on various sources of observable market data. If prices are not within certain tolerance levels that are based on the asset type’s characteristics, the exception is researched and, if the price is not able to be validated, an alternate pricing vendor is utilized. Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis The following table presents our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis aggregated by the level within which measurements fall in the fair value hierarchy (in thousands): Quoted Market Prices (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Total September 30, 2025 Assets CMBS $ — $ 17,277 $ — $ 17,277 (1) Derivative assets: Interest rate derivatives - caps — 164 — 164 (2) Total $ — $ 17,441 $ — $ 17,441 Quoted Market Prices (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Total December 31, 2024 Assets CMBS $ — $ 41,535 $ — $ 41,535 (1) Derivative assets: Interest rate derivatives - caps — 356 — 356 (2) Total $ — $ 41,891 $ — $ 41,891 __________________ (1) Reported as “investment in securities” in our condensed consolidated balance sheet.

The unrealized gain (loss) recognized as a change in other comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $ 143,000 and $ 742,000 , respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company sold a portion of the CMBS with a par value of $ 25 million resulting in a realized loss of approximately $ 1.3 million included in “other income (expense)” on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. As a result of the sale, $ 68,000 of unrealized gain was reclassified to realized loss during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. There was no unrealized gain (loss) recognized as a change in other comprehensive income (loss) for the three months ended September 30, 2025. There was no unrealized gain (loss) recognized as a change in other comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. 9. Summary of Fair Value of Financial Instruments Determining the estimated fair values of certain financial instruments such as indebtedness requires considerable judgment to interpret market data. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. Accordingly, the estimates presented are not necessarily indicative of the amounts at which these instruments could be purchased, sold or settled. 17 BRAEMAR HOTELS & RESORTS INC.

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests in Operating Partnership Redeemable noncontrolling interests in the operating partnership represent the limited partners’ proportionate share of equity and their allocable share of equity in earnings/losses of Braemar OP, which is an allocation of net income/loss attributable to the common unitholders based on the weighted average ownership percentage of these limited partners’ common units of limited partnership interest in the operating partnership (the “common units”) and units issued under our Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “LTIP units”) that are vested. Each common unit may be redeemed, by the holder, for either cash or, at our sole discretion, up to one share of our REIT common stock, which is either: (i) issued pursuant to an effective registration 19 BRAEMAR HOTELS & RESORTS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) (unaudited) statement; (ii) included in an effective registration statement providing for the resale of such common stock; or (iii) issued subject to a registration rights agreement. LTIP units, which are issued to certain executives and employees of Ashford LLC as compensation, generally have vesting periods of three years . Additionally, certain independent members of the board of directors have elected to receive LTIP units as part of their compensation, which are fully vested upon grant. Upon reaching economic parity with common units, each vested LTIP unit can be converted by the holder into one common unit which can then be redeemed for cash or, at our election, settled in our common stock. An LTIP unit will achieve parity with the common units upon the sale or deemed sale of all or substantially all of the assets of our operating partnership at a time when our stock is trading at a level in excess of the price it was trading on the date of the LTIP issuance. More specifically, LTIP units will achieve full economic parity with common units in connection with (i) the actual sale of all or substantially all of the assets of our operating partnership; or (ii) the hypothetical sale of such assets, which results from a capital account revaluation, as defined in the partnership agreement, for our operating partnership. The compensation committee of our board of directors may authorize the issuance of Performance LTIP units to certain executive officers and directors from time to time. The award agreements provide for the grant of a target number of Performance LTIP units that will be settled in common units of Braemar OP, if, when and to the extent the applicable vesting criteria have been achieved following the end of the performance and service period, which is generally three years from the grant date. The performance awards will be eligible to vest, from 0 % to 200 % of target, based on achievement of certain performance targets over the three-year performance period. The performance criteria are based on performance conditions under the relevant literature. The corresponding compensation cost is recognized ratably over the service period for the award as the service is rendered, based on the applicable measurement date fair value of the award. The grant date fair value of the award may vary from period to period, as the number of performance grants earned may vary since the estimated probable achievement of certain performance targets may vary from period to period. As of September 30, 2025, there are 353,000 unvested Performance LTIP units. As of September 30, 2025, there are approximately 429,000 issued and outstanding LTIP and Performance LTIP units. All LTIP and Performance LTIP units, other than approximately 353,000 Performance LTIP units issued in March 2023, had reached full economic parity with, and are convertible into, common units. The following table presents the redeemable noncontrolling interests in Braemar OP (in thousands) and the corresponding approximate ownership percentage of our operating partnership: September 30, 2025 December 31, 2024 Redeemable noncontrolling interests in Braemar OP (in thousands) $ 18,942 $ 29,964 Adjustments to redeemable noncontrolling interests (1) (in thousands) $ 2,330 $ 1,324 Ownership percentage of operating partnership 6.91 % 8.05 % ____________________________________ (1) Reflects the excess of the redemption value over the accumulated historical cost.

The exchange was accounted for in the same manner as a redemption by the holder of common units that was settled by the Company in shares of the Company's common stock, in which the greater of the historical cost or fair value of the underlying LTIP or Performance LTIP units as of the exchange date was reclassified from mezzanine equity to permanent equity. 20 BRAEMAR HOTELS & RESORTS INC.

As of September 30, 2025, the Company has not repurchased any common stock pursuant to this program. Restricted Stock —We incur stock-based compensation expense in connection with restricted stock awarded to certain employees of Ashford LLC and its affiliates. We also issue common stock to certain of our independent directors, which vests immediately upon issuance. Performance Stock Units —The compensation committee of the board of directors of the Company may authorize the issuance of grants of performance stock units (“PSUs”) to certain executive officers and directors from time to time. The award agreements provide for the grant of a target number of PSUs that will be settled in shares of common stock of the Company, if, when and to the extent the applicable vesting criteria have been achieved following the end of the performance and service period, which is generally three years from the grant date. The compensation committee utilizes a performance metric, pursuant to which, the performance awards will be eligible to vest, from 0 % to 200 % of target, based on achievement of certain performance targets over the three-year performance period. The performance criteria are based on performance conditions under the relevant literature and were issued to non-employees. The corresponding compensation cost is recognized ratably over the service period for the award as the service is rendered, based on the corresponding measurement date fair value of the award, which may vary from period to period, as the number of performance grants earned may vary since the estimated probable achievement of certain performance targets may vary from period to period. 8.25 % Series D Cumulative Preferred Stock —The dividend for all issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Series D Cumulative Preferred Stock (the “Series D Preferred Stock”) is set at $ 2.0625 per annum per share.

The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is also subject to conversion upon certain events constituting a change of control. Holders of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock have no voting rights, subject to certain exceptions. The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock dividend for all issued and outstanding shares is set at $ 1.375 per annum per share. The Company may, at its option, cause the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock to be converted in whole or in part, on a pro-rata basis, into fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Company’s common stock at the conversion price, provided that the “Closing Bid Price” (as defined in the Articles Supplementary) of the Company’s common stock shall have equaled or exceeded 110 % of the conversion price for the immediately preceding 45 consecutive trading days ending three days prior to the date of notice of conversion. Additionally, the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock contains cash redemption features that consist of: 1) an optional redemption in which the Company may redeem shares of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, for cash at a redemption price of $ 25.00 per share, plus any accumulated, accrued and unpaid dividends; 2) a special optional redemption, in which on or prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined in the Articles Supplementary), the Company may redeem shares of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, for cash at a redemption price of $ 25.00 per share; and 3) a “REIT Termination Event” and “Listing Event Redemption,” in which at any time (i) a REIT Termination Event (as defined below) occurs or (ii) the Company’s common stock fails to be listed on the NYSE, NYSE American, or NASDAQ, or listed or quoted on an exchange or quotation system that is a successor thereto (each, a “National Exchange”), the holder of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock shall have the right to require the Company to redeem any or all shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock at 103 % of the liquidation preference ($ 25.00 per share, plus any accumulated, accrued, and unpaid dividends) in cash. A “REIT Termination Event,” shall mean the earliest of: (i) filing of a federal income tax return where the Company does not compute its income as a REIT; (ii) stockholders’ approval on ceasing to be qualified as a REIT; (iii) board of directors’ approval on ceasing to be qualified as a REIT; (iv) board’s determination based on the advice of counsel to cease to be qualified as a REIT; or (v) determination within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code to cease to be qualified as a REIT. Series B Convertible Preferred Stock does not meet the requirements for permanent equity classification prescribed by the authoritative guidance because of certain cash redemption features that are outside our control.

The Company is also offering a maximum of 8,000,000 shares of the Series E Preferred Stock pursuant to a dividend reinvestment plan (the “DRIP”) at $ 25.00 per share (the “Stated Value”). The Series E Preferred Stock ranks senior to all classes or series of the Company’s common stock and future junior securities, on a parity with each series of the Company’s outstanding preferred stock (the Series B Convertible Preferred stock, 22 BRAEMAR HOTELS & RESORTS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) (unaudited) the Series D Preferred Stock and the Series M Preferred Stock (as defined below)) and with any future parity securities and junior to future senior securities and to all of the Company’s existing and future indebtedness, with respect to the payment of dividends and the distribution of amounts upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company’s affairs. Holders of the Series E Preferred Stock shall have the right to vote for the election of directors of the Company and on all other matters requiring stockholder action by the holders of the common stock, each share being entitled to vote to the same extent as one share of the Company’s common stock, and all such shares voting together as a single class.

Each share is redeemable at any time, at the option of the holder, at a redemption price of $ 25.00 per share, plus any accumulated, accrued and unpaid dividends, less a redemption fee. Starting on the second anniversary, each share is redeemable at any time, at the option of the Company, at a redemption price of $ 25.00 per share, plus any accumulated, accrued and unpaid dividends (with no redemption fee). The Series E Preferred Stock is also subject to conversion upon certain events constituting a change of control. Upon such change of control events, holders have the option to convert their shares of Series E Preferred Stock into a maximum of 5.69476 shares of our common stock.

The Series E Preferred Stock does not meet the requirements for permanent equity classification prescribed by the authoritative guidance because of certain cash redemption features that are outside of the Company’s control. As such, the Series E Preferred Stock is classified outside of permanent equity. At the date of issuance, the carrying amount of the Series E Preferred Stock was less than the redemption value.

The base fee is payable on the fifth business day of each month. The minimum base fee for Braemar for each month will be equal to the greater of: ▪ 90 % of the base fee paid for the same month in the prior year; and ▪ 1/12 of the G&A Ratio (as defined) multiplied by the total market capitalization of Braemar. We are also required to pay Ashford LLC an incentive fee that is measured annually (or for a stub period if the advisory agreement is terminated at other than year-end). Each year that our annual total stockholder return exceeds the average annual total stockholder return for our peer group, we pay Ashford LLC an incentive fee over the following three years , subject to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (“FCCR”) Condition, as defined in the advisory agreement, which relates to the ratio of adjusted EBITDA to fixed charges. We also reimburse Ashford LLC for certain reimbursable overhead and internal audit, risk management advisory and asset management services, as specified in the advisory agreement.

On each of March 11, 2024 and March 10, 2025, we entered into a Limited Waiver Under Advisory Agreement with Ashford Inc. and Ashford LLC (collectively, the “Advisory Agreement Limited Waivers”). Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement Limited Waivers, the Company, the Operating Partnership, TRS and the Advisor waive the operation of any provision in our advisory agreement that would otherwise limit the ability of the Company in its discretion, at the Company’s cost and expense, to award during calendar years 2024 and 2025, respectively, cash incentive compensation to employees and other representatives of the Advisor. Pursuant to the Company’s hotel management agreements with each hotel management company, the Company bears the economic burden for casualty insurance coverage which includes workers’ compensation, general liability and auto liability coverages. The hotel management companies procure workers’ compensation insurance, the expenses of which are passed through to the Company. Under the advisory agreement and hotel management agreements, Ashford Inc. secures general liability and auto liability policies to cover Ashford Trust, Braemar, Stirling OP, their hotel managers, as needed, and Ashford Inc. The total cost estimates covered by such policies are based on the collective pool of risk exposures from each party. Ashford Inc. delegates the management of the casualty insurance program to Warwick Insurance Company, LLC (“Warwick”), a subsidiary of Ashford Inc. which issues policies covering general liability, workers’ compensation and auto liability 26 BRAEMAR HOTELS & RESORTS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) (unaudited) losses. Each year Ashford Inc. collects funds from Ashford Trust, Braemar, Stirling OP and their respective hotel management companies, to fund the casualty insurance program as needed, on an allocated basis. On August 26, 2025, Braemar entered into an agreement with Ashford Inc. to explore a potential sale of Braemar. Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, Braemar and Ashford Inc. agreed that the termination fee payable to Ashford Inc. under the advisory agreement is $ 574.8 million (exclusive of accrued fees). However, Braemar and Ashford Inc. have agreed to the payment of a discounted aggregate amount of $ 480.0 million plus accrued fees. Ashford Inc. received a $ 17.0 million payment upon execution of the agreement.

The Company also entered into a loan funding agreement with Ashford Inc. and OpenKey. The loan bears interest at an annual rate of 15 %. During the fourth quarter of 2024, we determined that the full amount of the note receivable was not collectible, the note receivable was impaired and the recognition of interest income ceased. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the carrying amount of the loan was $ 145,000 included in “investment of unconsolidated entity” on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. 15. Commitments and Contingencies Restricted Cash —Under certain management and debt agreements for our hotel properties existing at September 30, 2025, escrow payments are required for insurance, real estate taxes and debt service. In addition, for certain properties based on the terms of the underlying debt and management agreements, we escrow 3 % to 5 % of gross revenues for capital improvements. Franchise Fees —We currently have two hotel properties that operate under franchise agreements. The Cameo Beverly Hills franchise agreement has a 25-year term. The term begins upon the completion of conversion of the Cameo Beverly Hills. Under the terms of the agreement, we will pay: (i) 3 % of gross rooms revenue for the preceding calendar month during the first three years of the agreement; (ii) 4 % of gross rooms revenue for the preceding calendar month during year four; and (iii) 5 % of the gross rooms revenue for the preceding calendar month for the remainder of the term. As of September 30, 2025, we are currently paying 3 % of gross revenues for the Cameo Beverly Hills. Under the franchise agreement for the Sofitel Chicago Magnificent Mile, we pay franchisor royalty fees of 4.4 % of gross rooms revenue. Additionally, we pay a marketing fee of 1.5 % of gross rooms revenue. This franchise agreement expires in 2041, with extension options. The table below summarizes the franchise fees incurred (in thousands): Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, Line Item 2025 2024 2025 2024 Other hotel expenses $ 416 $ 84 $ 939 $ 258 Management Fees —Under hotel management agreements for our hotel properties existing at September 30, 2025, we pay a monthly hotel management fee equal to the greater of approximately $ 18,000 per hotel (increased annually based on consumer price index adjustments) or 3 % of gross revenues, or in some cases, 2.3 % to 5.0 % of gross revenues, as well as annual incentive management fees, if applicable. These management agreements expire from November 2029 through December 2065, with renewal options. If we terminate a management agreement prior to its expiration, we may be liable for estimated management fees through the remaining term, liquidated damages or, in certain circumstances, we may substitute a new management agreement. Our hotel management agreements also require that we fund property-level operating costs, including the hotel manager's payroll and related costs. Income Taxes —We and our subsidiaries file income tax returns in the federal jurisdiction and various states. Tax years 2020 through 2024 remain subject to potential examination by certain federal and state taxing authorities. Litigation —On December 20, 2016, a class action lawsuit was filed against one of the Company’s hotel management companies in the Superior Court of the State of California in and for the County of Contra Costa alleging violations of certain California employment laws, which class action affects two hotels owned by subsidiaries of the Company. The court has entered an order granting class certification with respect to: (i) a statewide class of non-exempt employees of our manager who were allegedly deprived of rest breaks as a result of our manager’s previous written policy requiring its employees to stay on premises during rest breaks; and (ii) a derivative class of non-exempt former employees of our manager who were not paid for allegedly missed breaks upon separation from employment. Notices to potential class members were sent out on February 2, 2021. Potential class members had until April 4, 2021 to opt-out of the class; however, the total number of employees in the 28 BRAEMAR HOTELS & RESORTS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) (unaudited) class has not been definitively determined and is the subject of continuing discovery. The opt-out period has been extended until such time that discovery has concluded. In May 2023, the trial court requested additional briefing from the parties to determine whether the case should be maintained, dismissed, or the class de-certified. After submission of the briefs, the court requested that the parties submit stipulations for the court to rule upon. On February 13, 2024, the judge ordered the parties to submit additional briefing related to on-site breaks. A tentative settlement in the amount of $ 850,000 was reached on February 14, 2025. Final court approval was obtained on September 12, 2025. Braemar’s portion of the settlement is 11.7 %. The case is now in the settlement administration phase. As of September 30, 2025, the settlement liability amount has been accrued. On June 8, 2022, a lawsuit was filed against various Hilton entities on behalf of a class of all hourly employees at all Hilton-branded managed properties in California, including Hilton La Jolla Torrey Pines. The complaint includes claims for unpaid wages, meal and rest break violations, and unreimbursed business expenses, along with various derivative claims including wage statement, final pay, and Private Attorneys General Act (“PAGA”) claims. On November 30, 2023, Hilton mediated this litigation, but it did not result in a settlement. At the end of the mediation, the mediator submitted a mediator’s proposal for approximately $ 3.5 million, to which the parties have since agreed to. The allocation to Hilton La Jolla Torrey Pines is approximately $ 401,000 , which was accrued as of September 30, 2025. A hearing on a motion for preliminary approval of the settlement was held on October 27, 2025. The Court issued a tentative ruling granting the motion for preliminary approval of settlement and scheduled a hearing for final approval on April 20, 2026. On August 4, 2020, a lawsuit, Benjamin Zermeno v. Beverly Hills Marriott , was filed in Alameda County Superior Court as a PAGA representative action alleging various wage and hour violations of all Remington Hospitality managed California properties. The plaintiff’s individual claims were compelled to arbitration. On August 18, 2022, another lawsuit, Cristina Catalano v. Beverly Hills Marriott and Mr. C , was filed as a PAGA representative action alleging various wage and hour violations of all Remington Hospitality managed California properties. The co-defendant separately settled and the individual arbitration has also settled. A private mediation was held on December 27, 2024 to globally resolve the three outstanding matters. A tentative settlement was reached subject to court approval. As of September 30, 2025, the estimated settlement liability amount has been accrued. We are also engaged in other legal proceedings that have arisen but have not been fully adjudicated. To the extent the claims giving rise to these legal proceedings are not covered by insurance, they relate to the following general types of claims: employment matters, tax matters and matters relating to compliance with applicable law (for example, the Americans with Disabilities Act and similar state laws). The likelihood of loss from these legal proceedings is based on the definitions within contingency accounting literature. We recognize a loss when we believe the loss is both probable and reasonably estimable. Based on the information available to us relating to these legal proceedings and/or our experience in similar legal proceedings, we do not believe the ultimate resolution of these proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flow. During the quarter ended September 30, 2023, we had a cyber incident that resulted in the potential exposure of certain personal information. We have completed an investigation and have identified certain information that may have been exposed and notified potentially impacted individuals pursuant to applicable state guidelines. All systems have been restored. In February of 2024, two class action lawsuits were filed, one in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas and a second in the 68th District Court for Dallas County related to the cyber incident. The lawsuit filed in the 68th District Court was subsequently dismissed and refiled in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas. On March 12, 2024, the court ordered the two cases be consolidated. The consolidated case is currently pending in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas. The parties have reached an agreement, subject to final Court approval, to resolve the class action suit. The amount of the class settlement is approximately $ 485,000 . Final court approval was received on September 3, 2025. Our assessment may change depending upon the development of any current or future legal proceedings, and the final results of such legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty. If we ultimately do not prevail in one or more of these legal matters, and the associated realized losses exceed our current estimates of the range of potential losses, our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows could be materially adversely affected in future periods. 16. Segment Reporting We operate in one reportable business segment within the hotel lodging industry: direct hotel investments. Direct hotel investments refers to owning hotel properties through either acquisition or new development. We report operating results of direct hotel investments on an aggregate basis as substantially all of our hotel investments; (i) offer similar products and services to their customers in the form of hotel rooms, food and beverage, and ancillary services: (ii) utilize third-party hotel management companies to deliver its products and services to its customers; (iii) are designed and operated to appeal to similar 29 BRAEMAR HOTELS & RESORTS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) (unaudited) individuals, groups, leisure, and business customers; and (iv) have third-party hotel managers that utilize the same methods (direct hotel sales and various online booking portals) to distribute the Company’s products and services. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, all of our hotel properties were in the U.S. and its territories. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is its President and Chief Executive Officer. Each hotel property derives revenue primarily from guestroom sales, food and beverage sales, and revenues from other lodging services and amenities. The accounting policies of each operating segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in note 2 of the consolidated financial statements included in our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The CODM reviews and makes decisions on all aspects of the Company’s business using all available financial and non-financial data for each hotel individually. Capital allocation decisions to acquire, sell, enhance, redevelop, or perform renewal and replacement expenditures are determined on a hotel-by-hotel basis. Specifically, the CODM reviews the results of each hotel to assess the hotel’s profitability. The key measure the CODM uses to allocate resources and assess performance is individual hotel net income (loss) before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization, adjusted to exclude certain items determined by management to not be reflective of its ongoing operating performance or incurred in the normal course of business (Hotel Adjusted EBITDA). The adjustments include gains and losses on hotel dispositions, impairment charges, pre-opening costs associated with extensive renovation projects, property-level legal settlements, restructuring, severance, and management transition costs, and other expenses identified by management to be non-recurring. The CODM does not regularly review asset information by segment. 30 BRAEMAR HOTELS & RESORTS INC.
