Company Completes 2024 Capital Plan

LuxUrban Hotels Inc. (“LuxUrban” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: LUXH), which utilizes an asset-light business model to lease entire hotels on a long-term basis and rent out hotel rooms in these properties in key major metropolitan cities, today announced that The Royalton by LuxUrban, Trademark Collection® by Wyndham is expected to begin welcoming guests on or before January 30, 2024.

The Company also announced that it has completed its 2024 Capital Plan. In combination with recent warrant proceeds of approximately $4 million, gross proceeds of approximately $7 million raised via the previously announced underwritten public offering of the Company’s 13.00% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, and an enhanced Key Money financing program with Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, the Company intends to accelerate growth by means of these initiatives. Although the Company will continue to evaluate market conditions and opportunities, it has no current plans for any additional equity or debt financings not previously disclosed.

The Company is pursuing a robust opportunity pipeline and expects to imminently announce additional large-scale Master Lease Agreements (MLA) for hotel properties that are scheduled to open during the first quarter of 2024. The Company expects to have approximately 3,500-4,000 hotel rooms available for rent under long-term MLA by the end of the first quarter of 2024 and approximately 6,000 hotel rooms available for rent under MLA by June 30, 2024.

LuxUrban Hotels Inc.

LuxUrban Hotels Inc. utilizes an asset light business model to lease entire hotels on a long-term basis and rent out hotel rooms in the properties it leases to business and vacation travelers through the Company’s online portal and third-party sales and distribution channels. The Company currently manages a portfolio of hotel rooms in New York, Washington D.C., Miami Beach, New Orleans and Los Angeles. As of November 30, 2023 the Company had 2,032 hotel rooms under lease, including properties not yet available for rent, and seeks to rapidly build its portfolio on favorable economics through the acquisition of additional accommodations that were dislocated or are underutilized as a result of the pandemic and current economic conditions. In late 2021, the Company commenced the process of winding down its legacy business of leasing and re-leasing multifamily residential units, as it pivoted toward its new strategy of leasing hotels. This transition has been substantially completed.
