John Q. Hammons Hotels, Inc. (AMEX:JQH) today reported results for
the 2005 first quarter. First Quarter Results Total revenues from
continuing operations for the three months ended April 1, 2005 were
$111.4 million, an increase of 1.9% compared to the three months
ended April 2, 2004. We produced EBITDA from continuing operations
for the 2005 quarter of $32.1 million, down slightly compared to
$32.3 million in the 2004 quarter. (See attached table for
reconciliation of income from continuing operations to EBITDA from
continuing operations and for our definition of EBITDA from
continuing operations). Basic earnings per share for the three
months ended April 1, 2005 were $1.28, compared to $0.85 for the
three months ended April 2, 2004. Diluted earnings per share for
the 2005 quarter were $1.03, compared to $0.74 for the 2004
quarter. Discontinued operations relating to the sale of the
Holiday Inn Emeryville, California had a positive effect on basic
and diluted earnings per share of $0.50 and $0.40, respectively,
for the 2005 quarter, virtually all of which is attributable to the
gain on sale of this hotel (a gain on sale of $11.2 million, of
which $2.8 million is allocable to us, net of minority interest).
Discontinued operations had a positive effect of $0.01 in the 2004
quarter. Net income for the 2005 first quarter was $7.0 million,
compared to $4.3 million for the 2004 quarter. Income from
continuing operations for the 2005 quarter was $4.2 million,
compared to $4.3 million in the 2004 quarter. The 2005 quarter's
income from continuing operations was positively impacted by $3.1
million of the limited partners' earnings we recaptured in the
quarter. This was due to the limited partners' losses we absorbed
in previous quarters, as a result of the inability of their net
contribution to fall below zero. The 2004 quarter was positively
impacted by $3.3 million, for the same reason mentioned above. The
following represents a reconciliation of the income from continuing
operations, as reported, to income from continuing operations, as

Available Room (RevPAR) from continuing operations was $69.41 for
the 2005 quarter, up 2.3% from the prior year's level of $67.84.
Occupancy from continuing operations for the 2005 quarter was
64.5%, down from 67.1% in the prior year, while our Average Daily
Rate (ADR) from continuing operations was up 6.5% to $107.65.
Financing and Investing Activities Since the beginning of 2004, we
have reduced total debt by over $35.4 million, including scheduled
principal amortization. We utilized the proceeds from the sale of
our disposition properties to retire a 9 1/2% mortgage on the World
Golf Village Renaissance Resort property. Our current portion of
long-term debt ($7.2 million) is attributable to scheduled
principal amortization on various individual hotel mortgages.
Operations Outlook We expect the industry to continue its recovery
during 2005, generating RevPAR and EBITDA above our 2004 levels.
This recovery should continue to enhance our cash generation and
produce favorable results as we focus on operational efficiencies
into 2005. Although we are not developing new hotels, Mr. Hammons
personally has numerous projects in various stages of development,
which we will manage upon completion, including properties in St.
Charles, Missouri and Hampton, Virginia. Mr. Hammons opened
properties in Springfield, Missouri in March and Frisco, Texas and
Albuquerque, New Mexico in April. John Q. Hammons Hotels, Inc. is a
leading independent owner and manager of affordable upscale, full
service hotels located primarily in key secondary markets. We own
44 hotels located in 20 states, containing 10,853 guest rooms or
suites, and manage 17 additional hotels located in nine states,
containing 3,873 guest rooms or suites. The majority of these 61
hotels operate under the Embassy Suites, Holiday Inn and Marriott
trade names. Most of our hotels are located near a state capitol,
university, convention center, corporate headquarters, office park
or other stable demand generator. A copy of this press release

is defined as income from continuing operations before interest
expense, net, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization,
minority interest and extinguishment of debt costs. Management
considers EBITDA to be one measure of operating performance for the
Company before debt service that provides a relevant basis for
comparison, and EBITDA is presented to assist investors in
analyzing the performance of the Company. This information should
not be considered as an alternative to any measure of performance
as promulgated under accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States, nor should it be considered as an indicator of
the overall financial performance of the Company. The Company's
calculation of EBITDA may be different from the calculation used by
other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited. Three
