SVC Board Unanimously Rejects TKO's $2B Hotel Portfolio Bid as Too Low
SVC is trading near its 52-week low of $5.18 (0.0% above the low).
Summary
SVC's board unanimously rejected TKO LLC's nonbinding $2 billion offer for its hotel portfolio, saying the bid significantly undervalued the hotels. That rejection is the key new fact — the offer itself was first reported October 9th, and this is the board's formal answer. The same recap confirms Q3 normalized FFO of $43.8 million, or $0.34 a share, up 29.3% year over year, with adjusted EBITDAre of $133.5 million and retained-hotel RevPAR up 8.3%. The FFO beat is offset by the wider-than-expected adjusted loss of $0.68 a share reported November 5th and the $0.13 midpoint cut to full-year 2026 FFO guidance disclosed in the November 4th 8-K. With the stock at $5.18 near its 52-week low and cash down to $40 million per the Q3 10-Q, the board's refusal to engage on a $2 billion hotel sale keeps the liquidity question open. Blackwells Capital's November 6th letter demanding the board engage in good faith now has a direct target: the rejected TKO bid.
