Note: Hospitality and same-store Hospitality results for the 2024 periods reflect franchise tax refunds for the 2020 through 2023 tax periods, totaling approximately $5.6 million.

Note: For the Company鈥檚 definitions of Revenue Per Available Room (RevPAR) and Total Revenue Per Available Room (Total RevPAR), see 鈥淐alculation of RevPAR and Total RevPAR鈥� below.

Second Quarter 2025 Hospitality Segment Highlights

• The same-store Hospitality portfolio generated second quarter operating income of $129.5 million and Adjusted EBITDAre of $187.0 million. The timing of the Easter holiday, unusually strong corporate group mix, and one-time franchise tax refunds in the second quarter of 2024 contributed to challenging year-over-year comparisons.
• As anticipated, association group room nights traveled in the quarter were approximately 49,000 higher than the prior-year quarter, and corporate group room nights traveled declined by a similar amount. As a result, banquet and AV revenue declined approximately $16 million, driven primarily by the group mix shift.
• Same-store gross group room nights booked in the second quarter for the current year were up 3% compared to last year, despite lower ITYFTY lead volumes. For the six-month period, ITYFTY same-store gross group room nights booked were flat compared to last year, and ADR on those bookings increased mid-single digits.
• Second quarter attrition and cancellation revenue was approximately $9.5 million, a decrease of $0.3 million compared to the prior-year period.
• In June 2025, the Company completed the renovation of the Presidential ballroom and meeting space at Gaylord Opryland.

(1) The JW Marriott Desert Ridge was acquired by the Company on June 10, 2025, therefore there are no comparison figures.

Entertainment Segment

Note: Entertainment results for the 2024 periods reflect franchise tax refunds for the 2020 through 2023 tax periods, totaling approximately $3.4 million.

Fioravanti continued, 鈥淥ur Entertainment segment delivered all-time record revenue, driven by continued momentum from our recent investments, including Category 10, Block 21 and Southern Entertainment. As anticipated, our investment in Southern Entertainment, together with the one-time franchise tax refunds received in the prior-year quarter, contributed to a lower Adjusted EBITDAre margin. The festivals business is seasonally weighted to the second quarter, and this year was impacted by some unfavorable weather conditions. We continue to see healthy demand and consumer enthusiasm for live experiences, highlighting the strength of the industry and our portfolio of iconic brands and venues.鈥�

Corporate and Other Segment

Note: Corporate and Other results for the 2024 periods reflect franchise tax refunds for the 2020 through 2023 tax periods, totaling approximately $0.1 million.

Capital Expenditures

In 2025, the Company continues to expect to spend approximately $350 to $450 million on capital expenditures, primarily related to its Hospitality business, which includes approximately $182 million spent in the first half of 2025.

Major Hospitality projects planned for the second half of 2025 include:

• Continuation of the sports bar, pavilion and event lawn development at Gaylord Opryland, which is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2026;
• Continuation of the meeting space expansion at Gaylord Opryland, which is expected to be completed in 2027; and
• Renovation of the rooms at Gaylord Texan, which began in July 2025 and is expected to be completed by mid-year 2026.
  
  

Included in the Company鈥檚 capital expenditure estimates are modest investments planned at the JW Marriott Desert Ridge, including completion of the meeting space renovations currently underway; conversion of approximately 5,000 square feet of vacant office space to additional carpeted breakout space; and event lawn enhancements to support the addition of ICE! programming in 2026.

Disruption

For 2025, the Company affirms its previously-stated expectation that the full year impact of construction-related disruption to its same-store Hospitality segment will be 250 to 350 basis points to RevPAR; 200 to 300 basis points to Total RevPAR; and $30 to $35 million to operating income and Adjusted EBITDAre. For the second half of the year, construction-related disruption is expected to impact results at Gaylord Opryland and Gaylord Texan.

2025 Guidance

The Company is updating its 2025 business performance outlook based on current information as of August 4, 2025. The Company does not expect to update the guidance provided below before next quarter鈥檚 earnings release. However, the Company may update or withdraw its full business outlook or any portion thereof at any time for any reason, including due to economic uncertainty and volatility.

Fioravanti concluded, 鈥淲e are adjusting our full year 2025 outlook for the acquisition of the JW Marriott Desert Ridge, and we are updating the range of expected outcomes for same-store Hospitality Adjusted EBITDAre to account for incremental transient rate risk for our Nashville-based hotels in the second half of the year. Visitation and tourism trends for Nashville remain robust; however, new hotel supply in the market, particularly at the high end, has impacted transient occupancy levels, and, more recently, room rates. We remain bullish on the long-term trajectory of the markets in which we do business, and our competitive positioning within them.鈥�

Additional Information

This release should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. Copies of our reports are available on our website at no expense at www.rymanhp.com and through the SEC鈥檚 Electronic Data Gathering Analysis and Retrieval System (鈥淓DGAR鈥�) at www.sec.gov.

Calculation of RevPAR and Total RevPAR
We calculate revenue per available room (鈥淩evPAR鈥�) for our hotels by dividing room revenue by room nights available to guests for the period. We calculate total revenue per available room (鈥淭otal RevPAR鈥�) for our hotels by dividing the sum of room revenue, food & beverage, and other ancillary services revenue by room nights available to guests for the period. Hospitality metrics do not include the results of the W Austin, which is included in the Entertainment segment.

Calculation of GAAP Margin Figures
We calculate net income available to common stockholders margin by dividing GAAP consolidated net income available to common stockholders by GAAP consolidated total revenue. We calculate consolidated, segment or property-level operating income margin by dividing consolidated, segment or property-level GAAP operating income by consolidated, segment or property-level GAAP revenue.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We present the following non-GAAP financial measures we believe are useful to investors as key measures of our operating performance:

EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre, Excluding Noncontrolling Interest Definition
We calculate EBITDAre, which is defined by the National Association of AG真人官方 Estate Investment Trusts (鈥淣AREIT鈥�) in its September听2017 white paper as net income (calculated in accordance with GAAP) plus interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, gains or losses on the disposition of depreciated property (including gains or losses on change in control), impairment write-downs of depreciated property and of investments in unconsolidated affiliates caused by a decrease in the value of depreciated property of the affiliate, and adjustments to reflect the entity鈥檚 share of EBITDAre of unconsolidated affiliates.

Adjusted EBITDAre is then calculated as EBITDAre, plus to the extent the following adjustments occurred during the periods presented:

• preopening costs;
• non-cash lease expense;
• equity-based compensation expense;
• impairment charges that do not meet the NAREIT definition above;
• credit losses on held-to-maturity securities;
• transaction costs of acquisitions;
• interest income on bonds;
• loss on extinguishment of debt;
• pension settlement charges;
• pro rata Adjusted EBITDAre from unconsolidated joint ventures; and
• any other adjustments we have identified herein.
  
  

We then exclude the pro rata share of Adjusted EBITDAre related to noncontrolling interests to calculate Adjusted EBITDAre, Excluding Noncontrolling Interest.

We use EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre, Excluding Noncontrolling Interest and segment or property-level EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre to evaluate our operating performance. We believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors regarding our operating performance and debt leverage metrics, and that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, when combined with the primary GAAP presentation of net income or operating income, as applicable, is beneficial to an investor鈥檚 complete understanding of our operating performance. We make additional adjustments to EBITDAre when evaluating our performance because we believe that presenting Adjusted EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre, Excluding Noncontrolling Interest provides useful information to investors regarding our operating performance and debt leverage metrics.

Adjusted EBITDAre Margin and Adjusted EBITDAre, Excluding Noncontrolling Interest Margin Definition
We calculate consolidated Adjusted EBITDAre, Excluding Noncontrolling Interest Margin by dividing consolidated Adjusted EBITDAre, Excluding Noncontrolling Interest by GAAP consolidated total revenue. We calculate consolidated, segment or property-level Adjusted EBITDAre Margin by dividing consolidated, segment-, or property-level Adjusted EBITDAre by consolidated, segment-, or property-level GAAP revenue. We believe Adjusted EBITDAre, Excluding Noncontrolling Interest Margin is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because this non-GAAP financial measure helps investors evaluate and compare the results of our operations from period to period by presenting a ratio showing the quantitative relationship between Adjusted EBITDAre, Excluding Noncontrolling Interest and GAAP consolidated total revenue or segment or property-level GAAP revenue, as applicable.

FFO, Adjusted FFO, and Adjusted FFO Available to Common Stockholders and Unit Holders Definition
We calculate FFO, which definition is clarified by NAREIT in its December听2018 white paper as net income (calculated in accordance with GAAP) excluding depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs and debt discounts), gains and losses from the sale of certain real estate assets, gains and losses from a change in control, impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciated real estate held by the entity, income (loss) from consolidated joint ventures attributable to noncontrolling interest, and pro rata adjustments from unconsolidated joint ventures.

To calculate Adjusted FFO available to common stockholders and unit holders, we then exclude, to the extent the following adjustments occurred during the periods presented:

• right-of-use asset amortization;
• impairment charges that do not meet the NAREIT definition above;
• write-offs of deferred financing costs;
• amortization of debt discounts or premiums and amortization of deferred financing costs;
• loss on extinguishment of debt;
• non-cash lease expense;
• credit loss on held-to-maturity securities;
• pension settlement charges;
• additional pro rata adjustments from unconsolidated joint ventures;
• (gains) losses on other assets;
• transaction costs of acquisitions;
• deferred income tax expense (benefit); and
• any other adjustments we have identified herein.
  
  

FFO available to common stockholders and unit holders and Adjusted FFO available to common stockholders and unit holders exclude the ownership portion of the joint ventures not controlled or owned by the Company.

We present Adjusted FFO available to common stockholders and unit holders per diluted share/unit as a non-GAAP measure of our performance in addition to net income available to common stockholders per diluted share (calculated in accordance with GAAP). We calculate Adjusted FFO available to common stockholders and unit holders per diluted share/unit as Adjusted FFO (defined as set forth above) for a given operating period, as adjusted for the effect of dilutive securities, divided by the number of diluted shares and units outstanding during such period.

We believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors regarding the performance of our ongoing operations because each presents a measure of our operations without regard to specified non-cash items such as real estate depreciation and amortization, gain or loss on sale of assets and certain other items, which we believe are not indicative of the performance of our underlying hotel properties. We believe that these items are more representative of our asset base than our ongoing operations. We also use these non-GAAP financial measures as measures in determining our results after considering the impact of our capital structure.

We caution investors that non-GAAP financial measures we present may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other companies, because not all companies calculate these non-GAAP measures in the same manner. The non-GAAP financial measures we present, and any related per share measures, should not be considered as alternative measures of our net income, operating performance, cash flow or liquidity. These non-GAAP financial measures may include funds that may not be available for our discretionary use due to functional requirements to conserve funds for capital expenditures and property acquisitions and other commitments and uncertainties. Although we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures can enhance an investor鈥檚 understanding of our results of operations, these non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed individually, are not necessarily better indicators of any trend as compared to GAAP measures such as net income, operating income, or cash flow from operations.
