Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management of Park Hotels & Resorts Inc. (the “Company”) is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The Company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the Company’s management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets of the Company that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management has assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013). Based on this assessment, management determined that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024.
Ernst & Young LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that has audited the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, has issued an attestation report on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024. The report is included herein.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of Park Hotels & Resorts Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Park Hotels & Resorts Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations, cash flows and equity for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes and financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15 (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework), and our report dated February 20, 2025 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Assessment of Property and Equipment for Impairment
Description of the Matter The Company had property and equipment, net of $7,398 million as of December 31, 2024 and recognized an impairment loss of approximately $12 million during the year ended December 31, 2024 as disclosed in Note 4 of the consolidated financial statements. As discussed in Note 2 of the consolidated financial statements, property and equipment is evaluated for recoverability based on expected undiscounted future cash flows if there are indicators of impairment. If it is determined that the expected undiscounted future cash flows are less than the net book value of the asset group, the excess of the net book value over the estimated fair value is recorded within impairment losses.
Auditing management’s assessment of impairment of property and equipment was complex and highly judgmental due to the significant estimation required in determining the timing and amount of expected undiscounted future cash flows and capitalization rates used to assess properties for impairment. In particular, the expected future cash flows are based on significant estimates, including projections of future income and estimated growth rates. Further, a fair value measurement can be highly sensitive to changes in capitalization and discount rates, that are estimated based on future economic and market conditions.
How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design, and tested the operating effectiveness of controls over the Company’s review process for evaluating property and equipment for impairment, including controls over management’s review of the significant assumptions described above.
Our testing of the Company’s impairment assessment included, among other procedures, evaluating the significant assumptions and testing the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data used by the Company to develop the expected future cash flows for their properties. We compared the significant assumptions, including growth rates and capitalization rates, used by management to current industry and economic trends, and changes to the Company’s strategy. We assessed the historical accuracy of management’s estimates and performed sensitivity analyses of significant assumptions to evaluate changes in the expected future cash flows that would result from changes in the assumptions. We also evaluated certain assumptions used in management's assessment for impairment using external sources.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations, cash flows and equity for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes and financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15 and our report dated February 20, 2025 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1: Organization
Park Hotels & Resorts Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company” and, exclusive of any subsidiaries, "Park Parent") is a Delaware corporation that owns a portfolio of premium-branded hotels and resorts primarily located in prime city center and resort locations. On January 3, 2017, Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc. (“Hilton” or "Parent") completed the spin-off of a portfolio of premium hotels and resorts that established Park Hotels & Resorts Inc. as an independent, publicly traded company. On September 18, 2019, we acquired Chesapeake Lodging Trust.
We are a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for United States (“U.S.”) federal income tax purposes. We have been organized and operated, and we expect to continue to be organized and operate, in a manner to qualify as a REIT. From the date of our spin-off from Hilton, Park Intermediate Holdings LLC (our “Operating Company”), directly or indirectly, has held all our assets and has conducted all of our operations. We are structured as a traditional umbrella partnership REIT ("UPREIT"). Park Parent is the managing member of our Operating Company, and PK Domestic REIT Inc., a direct subsidiary of Park Parent, is a member of our Operating Company. We may, in the future, issue interests in (or from) our Operating Company in connection with acquiring hotels, financings, issuance of equity compensation or other purposes.
Note 2: Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, our wholly owned subsidiaries and entities in which we have a controlling financial interest, including variable interest entities (“VIEs”) where we are the primary beneficiary. The consolidated financial statements reflect our financial position, results of operations and cash flows, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). All significant intercompany transactions and balances within these consolidated financial statements have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost, and interest applicable to major construction or development projects is capitalized. Costs of improvements that extend the economic life or improve service potential are also capitalized. Capitalized costs are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Costs for normal repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.
Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method over the assets’ estimated useful lives, which are generally as follows: buildings and improvements ( 8 to 40 years); furniture and equipment ( 3 to 8 years); and computer equipment and acquired software ( 3 years). Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life, based on the estimates above, or the lease term.
We evaluate the carrying value of our property and equipment if there are indicators of potential impairment. We perform an analysis to determine the recoverability of the asset’s carrying value by comparing the expected undiscounted future cash flows to the net book value of the asset. If it is determined that the expected undiscounted future cash flows are less than the net book value of the asset, the excess of the net book value over the estimated fair value is recorded in our
61
Table of Contents
consolidated statements of operations within impairment losses. Fair value is generally estimated using valuation techniques that consider the discounted cash flows of the asset using discount and capitalization rates deemed reasonable for the type of asset, as well as prevailing market conditions, appraisals, recent similar transactions in the market and, if appropriate and available, current estimated net sales proceeds from pending offers.
If sufficient information exists to reasonably estimate the fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation, including environmental remediation liabilities, we recognize the fair value of the obligation when the obligation is incurred, which is generally upon acquisition, construction or development and/or through the normal operation of the asset.
Assets Held for Sale
We classify a property as held for sale when we commit to a plan to sell the asset, the sale of the asset is probable within one year, and it is unlikely that action to complete the sale will change or that the sale will be withdrawn. When we determine that classification of an asset as held for sale is appropriate, we cease recording depreciation for the asset and value the property at the lower of depreciated cost or fair value, less costs to dispose. Further, the related assets and liabilities of the held for sale property will be classified as assets held for sale in our consolidated balance sheets. Any gains on sales of properties are recognized at the time of sale or deferred and recognized in net income in subsequent periods as any relevant conditions requiring deferral are satisfied.
Investments in Affiliates
The consolidated financial statements include entities in which we have a controlling financial interest, including VIEs where we are the primary beneficiary. The determination of a controlling financial interest is based upon the terms of the governing agreements of the respective entities, including the evaluation of rights held by other interests. If the entity is considered to be a VIE, we determine whether we are the primary beneficiary, and then consolidate those VIEs for which we have determined we are the primary beneficiary. If the entity in which we hold an interest does not meet the definition of a VIE, we evaluate whether we have a controlling financial interest through our voting interests in the entity. We consolidate entities when we own more than 50 percent of the voting shares of a company or otherwise have a controlling financial interest. References in these financial statements to net income attributable to stockholders do not include non-controlling interests, which represent the outside ownership interests of our consolidated, non-wholly owned entities and are reported separately.
We hold investments in affiliates that primarily own or lease hotels. Investments in affiliates over which we exercise significant influence, but lack a controlling financial interest, are accounted for using the equity method. We account for investments using the equity method when we have the ability to exercise significant influence over the entity, typically through a more than minimal investment.
Our proportionate share of earnings (losses) from our equity method investments is presented as equity in earnings from investments in affiliates in our consolidated statements of operations. Distributions from investments in affiliates are presented as an operating activity in our consolidated statements of cash flows when such distributions are a return on investment. Distributions from investments in affiliates are recorded as an investing activity in our consolidated statements of cash flows when such distributions are a return of investment.
We assess the recoverability of our equity method investments if there are indicators of potential impairment. If an identified event or change in circumstances requires an evaluation to determine if an investment may have an other-than-temporary impairment, we assess the fair value of the investment based on accepted valuation methodologies, which include discounted cash flows, estimates of sales proceeds and external appraisals. If an investment’s fair value is below its carrying value and the decline is considered to be other-than-temporary, we will recognize an impairment loss in equity in earnings from investments in affiliates in our consolidated statements of operations.
Non-controlling Interests
We present the portion of any equity that we do not own in entities that we have a controlling financial interest (and thus consolidate) as non-controlling interests and classify those interests as a component of total equity, separate from total stockholders’ equity, on our consolidated balance sheets. For consolidated joint ventures with pro rata distribution allocations, net income or loss is allocated between the joint venture partners based on their respective stated ownership
62
Table of Contents
percentages. In addition, we include net income (loss) attributable to the noncontrolling interest in net income in our consolidated statements of operations.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets with finite useful lives primarily include an air rights contract. The air rights contract value is based on the present value of the difference between the contractual rental amounts and the market rental rates for similar contracts, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancellable term of the contract. Intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over the remaining term of the contract.
We review all finite lived intangible assets for impairment when circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If the carrying value of an asset group is not recoverable, we recognize an impairment loss for the excess of the carrying value over the fair value in our consolidated statements of operations.
Asset Acquisitions
We consider an asset acquisition to occur when substantially all the fair value of an acquisition is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets. In an acquisition of assets, we are not required to expense our acquisition-related costs, and goodwill is not assigned. We will account for the properties purchased as asset acquisitions by allocating the total cash consideration, including transaction costs, to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed, respectively, on a relative fair value basis.
Business Combinations
We consider a business combination to occur when we take control of a business by acquiring its net assets or equity interests. We record the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and non-controlling interests at fair value as of the acquisition date, including any contingent consideration. We evaluate factors, including market data for similar assets, expected future cash flows discounted at risk-adjusted rates and replacement cost for the assets to determine an appropriate fair value of the assets. Acquisition-related costs, such as due diligence, legal and accounting fees, are expensed in the period incurred and are not capitalized or applied in determining the fair value of the acquired assets.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments with original maturities, when purchased, of three months or less.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash includes cash balances established as lender reserves required by our debt agreements and reserves for capital expenditures in accordance with certain of our management agreements.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
An allowance for doubtful accounts is provided on accounts receivable when losses are probable based on historical collection activity and current business conditions.
Leases
We consider an arrangement to contain a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for compensation. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the present value of our fixed payment obligations. Leases with a term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. We use our estimated incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of our lease obligations. Our operating leases may require fixed payments, variable payments based on a percentage of revenue or income, or payments equal to the greater of a fixed or variable payment. Variable payments are excluded from the ROU assets and lease liabilities and are recognized in the period in which the obligation is incurred. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Our lease terms include renewal options that we are reasonably certain to exercise, and renewal options controlled by the lessor.

Fair Value Measurements—Valuation Hierarchy
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date (an exit price). We use the three-level valuation hierarchy for classification of fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from independent sources. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect our own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The three-level hierarchy of inputs is summarized below:
• Level 1—Valuation is based upon quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
• Level 2—Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, or other inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the instrument.
• Level 3—Valuation is based upon other unobservable inputs that are significant to the fair value measurement.
The classification of assets and liabilities within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety at the end of each reporting period.
Revenue Recognition
Our results of operations primarily consist of room rentals, food and beverage sales and other ancillary goods and services from hotel properties. Other revenues primarily relate to support services we provide to Hilton Grand Vacations (“HGV”). Hotel operating revenues are disaggregated into room revenue, food and beverage revenue, ancillary hotel revenue and other revenue on the consolidated statements of operations to illustrate how economic factors affect the nature, amount and timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows. Rooms revenue is recognized over time when rooms are occupied and food and beverage revenue is recognized at a point in time when goods and services have been delivered or rendered. Ancillary hotel revenue and other revenue is generally recognized at a point in time as goods and services are delivered or rendered.
We assess if we are the principal or agent for certain ancillary services provided by third parties. If we are the principal, we recognize revenue based on the gross sales price. If we are the agent, we recognize revenue net of costs paid to service providers. Payment received for a future stay or event is recognized as an advance deposit, which is included in other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. Advance deposits are recognized as revenue when rooms are occupied or goods or services have been delivered or rendered to our customer. Our advance deposit balance as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 was $ 120 million and $ 107 million, respectively, and are generally recognized as revenue within a one-year period. Additionally, we collect sales, use, occupancy and similar taxes at our hotels, which we present on a net basis (excluded from revenues) in our consolidated statements of operations.
Share-based Compensation
We recognize the cost of services received in share-based payment transactions with employees and non-employee directors as services are received and recognize a corresponding increase in additional paid-in capital for equity classified awards. We account for any forfeitures when they occur.
The measurement objective for these equity awards is the estimated fair value at the grant date of the equity instruments that we will be obligated to issue when employees have rendered the requisite service and satisfied any other conditions necessary to earn the right to benefit from the instruments. The compensation expense for an award classified as an equity instrument is recognized ratably over the requisite service period. The requisite service period is the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for an award.
Income Taxes
We have been organized and operated, and we expect to continue to be organized and operate, in a manner to qualify as a REIT. To qualify as a REIT, we must satisfy requirements related to, among other things, the real estate
64
Table of Contents
qualification of sources of our income, the real estate composition and values of our assets, the amounts we distribute to our stockholders annually and the diversity of ownership of our stock. To the extent we continue to remain qualified as a REIT, we generally will not be subject to U.S. federal (and state) income tax on taxable income generated by our REIT activities that we distribute annually to our stockholders. Accordingly, no provision for U.S. federal income taxes has been included in our accompanying consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 related to our REIT activities other than taxes related to our sale of built-in gain property (representing property held by us with an excess of fair value over tax basis on January 4, 2017). We will remain subject to California income tax on taxable sales of built-in-gain property until January 2027. Further, our taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”) are generally subject to U.S. federal, state and local, and foreign income taxes (as applicable).
We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method. The objectives of accounting for income taxes are to recognize the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year, to recognize the deferred tax assets and liabilities that relate to tax consequences in future years, which result from differences between the respective tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts, and to recognize tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the respective temporary differences or operating loss or tax credit carry forwards are expected to be recovered or settled. The realization of deferred tax assets and tax loss and tax credit carry forwards is contingent upon the generation of future taxable income and other restrictions that may exist under the tax laws of the jurisdiction in which a deferred tax asset exists. Valuation allowances are provided to reduce such deferred tax assets to amounts more likely than not to be ultimately realized.
We use a prescribed recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken in a tax return. For all income tax positions, we first determine whether it is “more-likely-than-not” that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. If it is determined that a position meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the benefit recognized in the financial statements is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement.

(3) Our revolving credit facility ("Revolver") permits one or more standby letters of credit, up to a maximum aggregate outstanding balance of $ 50 million, to be issued on behalf of us. As of December 31, 2024, we had approximately $ 4 million outstanding on a standby letter of credit and $ 946 million of available capacity under our Revolver. In January 2025, the standby letter of credit was cancelled, increasing the available capacity under our Revolver to $ 950 million.
(4) The secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR") includes a credit spread adjustment of 0.1 %.
Mortgage Loans
In October 2016, we entered into a $ 1.275 billion CMBS loan secured by the Hilton Hawaiian Village (“HHV Mortgage Loan”). The HHV Mortgage Loan bears interest at a fixed-rate and requires interest-only payments through its maturity date. The HHV Mortgage Loan may be partially or fully prepaid, subject to prepayment penalties.
Our other mortgage loans all bear interest at fixed-rates. Certain of our mortgage loans require interest-only loan payments through their respective maturity dates, and the remaining mortgage loans require payments of both principal and interest on a monthly basis.
Credit Facilities
2016 Term Loan and Revolver
In December 2016, we entered into a credit agreement (“Original Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as administrative agent, and certain other financial institutions party thereto as lenders. In December 2022, we amended and restated the Original Credit Agreement ("Credit Agreement"). The Credit Agreement provides aggregate commitments of $ 950 million for the Revolver, which can be increased by up to $ 500 million with lender approval, and matures on December 1, 2026, with the ability to extend its maturity by one year as (i) a one-year extension or (ii) two six-month extensions. Borrowings under the Revolver bear interest based upon the secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR") plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.1 %, plus an applicable margin based on our leverage ratio. We incur an
69
Table of Contents
unused facility fee on the Revolver of between 0.2 % and 0.3 %, based on our level of usage. The Credit Agreement also contains certain financial covenants including a maximum leverage ratio, minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, maximum secured leverage ratio, maximum unsecured indebtedness to unencumbered asset value ratio and minimum unencumbered adjusted net operating income to unsecured interest coverage ratio. The Credit Agreement allows us to conduct share repurchases, subject to compliance with the financial covenants, and released all collateral securing the Revolver and Senior Notes. The Credit Agreement restricts activities of the Company, including our ability to grant liens on certain properties, mergers, affiliate transactions, asset sales and the payment of dividends and distributions (except to the extent required to maintain REIT status and certain other agreed exceptions). Additionally, the Revolver permits one or more standby letters of credit, up to a maximum aggregate outstanding balance of $ 50 million, to be issued on behalf of us. Any outstanding standby letters of credit reduce the available borrowings on the Revolver by a corresponding amount. As of December 31, 2024, we had approximately $ 4 million outstanding on a standby letter of credit, which was cancelled in January 2025.
2024 Term Loan
In May 2024, the Company, our Operating Company and PK Domestic Property LLC ("PK Domestic") amended the Credit Agreement to include a new $ 200 million senior unsecured term loan ("2024 Term Loan") with a scheduled maturity date of May 14, 2027. Borrowings under the 2024 Term Loan bear interest based upon SOFR plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.1 %, plus an applicable margin based on our leverage ratio. As of December 31, 2024, our all-in interest rate was 6.21 %. We capitalized $ 2 million of financing fees incurred during the year ended December 31, 2024.
The amendment did not amend or modify existing financial maintenance covenants or other terms and provisions under our existing credit agreement, except to provide that income, value and debt of the Hilton San Francisco Hotels be excluded from the calculations of our leverage ratio, the fixed charge coverage ratio and the secured leverage ratio under the existing credit agreement.
Senior Notes
2025 Senior Notes
In May 2020, our Operating Company, PK Domestic and PK Finance Co-Issuer Inc. (“PK Finance”) issued an aggregate of $ 650 million of senior notes due 2025 ("2025 Senior Notes"), which bore interest at a rate of 7.500 % per annum. In May 2024, all of the 2025 Senior Notes were repurchased or redeemed using the proceeds from the $ 550 million of senior notes due in 2030 ("2030 Senior Notes") and the 2024 Term Loan.

2030 Senior Notes
In May 2024, our Operating Company, PK Domestic and PK Finance issued an aggregate of $ 550 million of 2030 Senior Notes. Net proceeds from the 2030 Senior Notes and the 2024 Term Loan were used to repurchase or redeem all of the 2025 Senior Notes, and the remainder was used for general corporate purposes. The 2030 Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 7.000 % per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, beginning February 1, 2025. The 2030 Senior Notes will mature on February 1, 2030. We capitalized approximately $ 9 million of issuance costs during the year ended December 31, 2024.
We may redeem the 2030 Senior Notes, in whole or in part, at the applicable redemption prices set forth in the indenture. On or after August 1, 2028, we may redeem the 2030 Senior Notes at 100 % of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.
Indentures
The 2028 Senior Notes, 2029 Senior Notes and 2030 Senior Notes (collectively, the “Senior Notes”) are guaranteed by Park Parent, PK Domestic REIT Inc., and by the subsidiaries of our Operating Company that also guarantee indebtedness under our credit facility. The guarantees are full and unconditional and joint and several. The indentures governing the Senior Notes contain customary covenants that limit the issuers’ ability and, in certain instances, the ability of the issuers’ subsidiaries, to borrow money, create liens on assets, make distributions and pay dividends on or redeem or repurchase stock, make certain types of investments, sell stock in certain subsidiaries, enter into agreements that restrict dividends or other payments from subsidiaries, enter into transactions with affiliates, issue guarantees of indebtedness, and sell assets or merge with other companies. These covenants are subject to a number of exceptions and qualifications, including the ability to declare or pay any cash dividend or make any cash distribution to us to the extent necessary for us to fund a dividend or distribution by us that we believe is necessary to maintain our status as a REIT or to avoid payment of any tax for any calendar year that could be avoided by reason of such distribution, and the ability to make certain restricted payments not to exceed $ 100 million, plus 95 % of our cumulative Funds From Operations (as defined in the indentures), plus the aggregate net proceeds from (i) the sale of certain equity interests in, (ii) capital contributions to, and (iii) certain convertible indebtedness of the Operating Company. In addition, the indentures require our Operating Company to maintain total unencumbered assets as of each fiscal quarter of at least 150 % of total unsecured indebtedness, in each case calculated on a consolidated basis.

Debt Associated with Hotels in Receivership
In June 2023, we ceased making debt service payments towards the SF Mortgage Loan secured by the Hilton San Francisco Hotels, which was due November 2023, and we received a notice of default from the servicer. The stated rate on the loan is 4.11 %; however, beginning June 1, 2023, the default interest rate on the loan is 7.11 %. Additionally, beginning June 1, 2023, the loan accrues a monthly late payment administrative fee of 3 % of the monthly amount due. In October 2023, the trustee for the SF Mortgage Loan filed a lawsuit against the borrowers under the SF Mortgage Loan. In connection with the lawsuit, the court appointed a receiver to take control of the Hilton San Francisco Hotels, which serve as security for the SF Mortgage Loan, and their operations, and thus, we have no further economic interest in the operations of the hotels. The receiver operates and has authority over the hotels and, until no later than March 31, 2025, has the
71
Table of Contents
ability to sell the hotels. The court order contemplates that the receivership will end with a non-judicial foreclosure by July 15, 2025, if the hotels are not sold within the predetermined sale period.
We derecognized the Hilton San Francisco Hotels from our consolidated balance sheet in October 2023, when the receiver took control of the hotels and, accordingly, recognized a gain of $ 221 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, which is included in gain on derecognition of assets in our consolidated statements of operations. For the year ended December 31, 2024, we recognized a gain of $ 60 million representing accrued interest expense associated with the default of the SF Mortgage Loan, which resulted in a corresponding increase of the contract asset on our consolidated balance sheets as we expect to be released from this obligation upon final resolution with the lender on the SF Mortgage Loan in exchange for the transfer of ownership of the Hilton San Francisco Hotels. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the contract asset on our consolidated balance sheets was $ 820 million and $ 760 million, respectively. The $ 725 million SF Mortgage Loan will remain a liability until final resolution with the lender is concluded, and thus is included in debt associated with hotels in receivership on our consolidated balance sheets.

(1) We estimated fair value of the assets during the year ended December 31, 2024, using a discounted cash flow analysis, with an estimated stabilized growth rate range of 2 % to 3 %, a discounted cash flow term of 10 years and a discount rate ranging from 17.0 % to 20.0 %. We estimated fair value of the asset during the year ended December 31, 2023, using a discounted cash flow analysis, with an estimated stabilized growth rate of 3 %, a discounted cash flow term of 10 years, terminal capitalization rate of 6.3 % and discount rate of 9.5 %. The discount and terminal capitalization rates used for the fair values of the assets reflected the risk profile of the markets where the properties are located. Fair value as of both December 31, 2024 and 2023 were measured using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3).
Note 9: Leases
We lease hotel properties, land and equipment under operating and financing leases. We are subject to ground leases on 12 of our consolidated properties as well as a lease for our corporate office. Our leases expire, including options under lessor control, at various dates through 2083, with varying renewal options, and the majority expire before 2031.
Our operating leases may require minimum rent payments, variable rent payments based on a percentage of revenue or income or rent payments equal to the greater of a minimum rent or variable rent. In addition, we may be required to pay some, or all, of the capital costs for property and equipment in the hotel during the term of the lease.
The future minimum rent payments under our current leases, due in each of the next five years and thereafter as of December 31, 2024, were:

Note 10: Income Taxes
We have been organized and operated, and we expect to continue to be organized and operate in a manner to qualify as a REIT. To qualify as a REIT, we must satisfy requirements related to, among other things, the real estate qualification of sources of our income, the real estate composition and values of our assets, the amounts we distribute to our stockholders annually and the diversity of ownership of our stock. To the extent we continue to remain qualified as a REIT, we generally will not be subject to U.S. federal (and state) income tax on taxable income generated by our REIT activities that we distribute annually to our stockholders. Accordingly, no provision for U.S. federal income taxes has been included in our accompanying consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 related to our REIT activities other than taxes related to our sale of built-in gain property. Our TRSs are generally subject to U.S. federal, state and local, and foreign income taxes (as applicable).

Note 11: Share-Based Compensation
We issue equity-based awards to our employees pursuant to the 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2017 Employee Plan”) and our non-employee directors pursuant to the 2017 Stock Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the “2017 Director Plan”) both of which are amended and restated from time to time. The 2017 Employee Plan provides that a maximum of 14,070,000 shares of our common stock may be issued, and as of December 31, 2024, 6,670,858 shares of common stock remain available for future issuance. The 2017 Director Plan provides that a maximum of 950,000 shares of our common stock may be issued, and as of December 31, 2024, 143,583 shares of common stock remain available for future issuance. For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, we recognized $ 19 million, $ 18 million and $ 17 million of share-based compensation expense, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, unrecognized compensation expense was $ 19 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.5 years. The total fair value of shares vested (calculated as the number of shares multiplied by the vesting date share price) during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 was $ 14 million, $ 7 million and $ 7 million, respectively.

Performance Stock Units
Performance Stock Units (“PSUs”) generally vest at the end of a three-year performance period and are subject to the achievement of a market condition based on a measure of our total shareholder return relative to the total shareholder return of the companies that comprise the FTSE Nareit Lodging Resorts Index (that have a market capitalization in excess of $ 1 billion as of the first day of the applicable performance period). The number of PSUs that may become vested ranges from zero to 200 % of the number of PSUs granted to an employee, based on the level of achievement of the foregoing performance measure.
Additionally, in November 2020, we granted special awards with vesting of these awards subject to the achievement of eight increasing levels of our average closing sales price per share, from $ 11.00 to $ 25.00 , over a consecutive 20 trading day period (“Share Price Target”). One-eighth of PSUs vested at each date a Share Price Target was achieved, and at the end of the performance period in November 2024, six of the eight Share Price Targets were achieved (or 75 % of the awards granted were vested), while the remaining two Share Price Targets were not achieved and the associated PSUs were forfeited.

Note 13: Hotel Management Operating and License Agreements
Management and Franchise Fees
We have management agreements, whereby we pay a base fee equal to a percentage of total revenues, as defined, as well as an incentive fee if specified financial performance targets are achieved. Our managers generally have sole responsibility for all activities necessary for the operation of the hotels, including establishing room rates, processing reservations and promoting and publicizing the hotels. Our managers also generally provide all employees for the hotels, prepare reports, budgets and projections, and provide other administrative and accounting support services to the hotels. We have consultative and limited approval rights with respect to certain actions of our managers, including entering into long-term or high value contracts, engaging in certain actions relating to legal proceedings, approving the operating budget, making certain capital expenditures and the hiring of certain management personnel.
Our management agreements have initial terms ranging from 5 to 30 years and most allow for one or more renewal periods. Assuming all renewal periods are exercised by our hotel managers, the total term of our management agreements range from 5 to 70 years.
We also have franchise agreements for seven hotels. The franchise agreements have an initial term of 10 to 20 years and cannot be extended without the franchisor’s consent.
Marketing Fees
Additionally, the management and franchise agreements generally require a marketing fee equal to a percentage of rooms revenues. Total marketing fees were $ 45 million, $ 47 million and $ 45 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and were included in other departmental and support expense in our consolidated statements of operations.

Employee Cost Reimbursements
We are responsible for reimbursing our managers for certain employee related costs outside of payroll. These costs include contributions to a defined contribution 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan administered by our managers, union-sponsored pension plans and other post-retirement plans. All of these plans are the responsibility of our managers and our obligation is only for the reimbursement of these costs for individuals who work at our hotel properties.
Note 14: Business Segment Information
As of December 31, 2024, we have two operating segments, our consolidated hotels and unconsolidated hotels. Our unconsolidated hotels operating segment does not meet the definition of a reportable segment, thus our consolidated hotels operating segment is our only reportable segment. Our CODM, who is our chief executive officer, evaluates our consolidated hotels primarily based on hotel adjusted earnings (loss) before interest income and expense, taxes and depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) when deciding how to allocate resources, in making other day-to-day operating decisions and evaluating our operating performance against other companies within our industry.
Hotel Adjusted EBITDA, presented herein, is calculated as EBITDA from hotel operations, adjusted to exclude the following items that are not reflective of our ongoing operating performance or incurred in the normal course of business, and thus excluded from the CODM's analysis:
• Gains or losses on sales of assets for both consolidated and unconsolidated investments;
• Costs associated with hotel acquisitions or dispositions expensed during the period;
• Severance expense;
• Share-based compensation expense;
• Impairment losses and casualty gains or losses; and
• Other items that we believe are not representative of our current or future operating performance.

Note 15: Commitments and Contingencies
As of December 31, 2024, we had outstanding commitments under third-party contracts of approximately $ 95 million for capital expenditures at our properties, of which $ 25 million relates to guestroom and lobby renovations at the Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort, $ 15 million relates to guestroom renovations at the Hilton New Orleans Riverside and $ 13 million relates to guestroom and lobby renovations at the Hilton Waikoloa Village. Our contracts contain clauses that allow us to cancel all or some portion of the work. If cancellation of a contract occurred, our commitment would be any costs incurred up to the cancellation date, in addition to any costs associated with the discharge of the contract.
We are involved in litigation arising from the normal course of business, some of which includes claims for substantial sums, and may make certain indemnifications or guarantees to select buyers of our hotels as part of a sale process. We are also involved in claims and litigation that is not in the ordinary course of business in connection with the spin-off from Hilton. The spin-off agreements provide that Hilton will indemnify us from certain of these claims as well as require us to indemnify Hilton for other claims. In addition, losses related to certain contingent liabilities could be apportioned to us under the spin-off agreements. In connection with our obligation to indemnify Hilton under the spin-off agreements, we have reserved approximately $ 8 million as of December 31, 2024 related to litigation with respect to an audit by the Australian Tax Office (“ATO”) of Hilton related to the sale of the Hilton Sydney in June 2015. This amount could change as the litigation of the ATO’s claim progresses.
Additionally, as of December 31, 2024, Hilton remains subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations from 2011 through 2017, the year of our spin-off. Various income tax returns for Hilton filed with state, local and foreign jurisdictions remain subject to examination by the applicable taxing authorities.
