Dalata | Strong Balance Sheet providing covenant for growth
Increase in tangible assets reflects:─ €133.2m in acquisitions during the year─ €66.6m net revaluation gain─ €28.5m capex on existing hotels and new developments─ Counterbalanced by €15.5m depreciation and €33.3m
translation adjustment due to fall in sterling
Goodwill and intangibles up by €7.5m followingacquisition of the Gibson Hotel leasehold (€20.5m) offsetby goodwill impairment (€10.3m) following revaluationuplifts and translation adjustments of €2.7m
£174.4m (€203.6m) of borrowings in sterling as a naturalhedge against value of sterling assets and sterlingdenominated earnings. Undrawn facilities of €52.2m atyear end
Increase in Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA to 2.40x from1.63x due to development and acquisition activity. Willincrease until mid-2018 when development pipeline iscompleted. Target to remain at 3.5x or below
Objective is to maintain a strong balance sheet withappropriate level of gearing, leading to a strong covenantfor potential landlords/investors

Building a portfolio within the Ireland recovery story
Maturing into a large hotel company focused on exploiting new growth
opportunities
2014 - 2016 2017+
Identified and exploited cyclical opportunity to acquire hotel assets under replacement cost
Invested over €1Bn in acquiring almost 7,000 rooms across Ireland and UK
Significant capital refurbishment programme commenced from mid 2014
Built out central management function
Operational excellence through revenuemaximisation and driving cost efficiencies
+1,200 new bedrooms by end 2018
Maintain Net Debt/EBITDA at or below3.5x
Seek to buy out remaining freeholds ofleased assets with open market rentreviews
Infill acquisitions in Ireland and targetedleasehold growth in the UK
Consolidation phase largely completed Already well underway
Become one of the largest hotel operators in the UK through leases and ownership
Senior team has extensive experience of rolling out a new brand (Jurys Inn) in the UK: Acquisitions team sourced, financed and developed over 15 new hotels Operations team opened and operated over 20 hotels
Opportunity exists in the upper 3 star and 4 star markets in large provincial UK cities: Market is fragmented - only Hilton and Holiday Inn have any significant presence Major brands have moved away from owned/leased to managed and increasingly franchise
model – can lead to dilution of brand standards Dalata is one of the few hotel operators in the 3 and 4 star markets that has a significant central
office management structure to operate a large portfolio of hotels We believe space exists for a fresh new offering
Carefully assess opportunities to grow Maldron and Clayton brands Focus on strong locations in the larger cities Strength of location is more important than speed of rollout
