Analysis · BHR · Real Estate & Construction
Braemar is fundamentally reshaping itself: selling its Four Seasons Scottsdale for $372M, internalizing management to cut $25M+ in annual G&A, and refinancing debt to save another $5M in interest. The company provided full-year 2027 guidance showing a GAAP net loss of $6–$11M but positive Adjusted FFO of $0.25–$0.31 per share. The stock trades near its 52-week low at $1.49, and this filing lays out the pro forma economics of the go-forward 7-hotel portfolio. The Al Shams settlement is already disclosed in a concurrent 8-K, but the guidance and transition details are new and material.
