NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF APRIL 30 AND JANUARY 31, 2010
AND FOR THREE MONTHS ENDED APRIL 30, 2010 AND 2009
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
InnSuites Hospitality Trust (the “Trust”) is an unincorporated real estate investment trust in the State of Ohio that at April 30, 2010 owned four hotels through a partnership interest in RRF Limited Partnership (the “Partnership”) and one hotel (Yuma Hospitality LP) directly (the “Hotels”) with an aggregate of 843 suites in Arizona, southern California and New Mexico. The Trust is the sole general partner in the Partnership. The Hotels are managed by InnSuites Hotels, Inc. (“InnSuites Hotels”), which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Trust.
InnSuites Hotels holds management contracts under which it provides hotel management services to the Hotels, as well as four hotels with an aggregate of 544 suites owned by affiliates of James F. Wirth (“Mr. Wirth”), the Trust’s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. Under the management agreements, InnSuites Hotels provides the personnel at the hotels, the expenses of which are reimbursed at cost, and manages the hotels’ daily operations, for which it receives a percentage of revenue from the hotels. InnSuites Hotels also holds licensing agreements and the “InnSuites” trademarks and provides licensing services to the Hotels, as well as the four hotels owned by affiliates of Mr. Wirth with an aggregate of 544 suites and one unrelated hotel property with 176 suites. Under the licensing agreements with affiliates of Mr. Wirth, InnSuites Hotels receives a fixed monthly fee based on the number of units in the hotel property in exchange for use of the “InnSuites” trademark. Under the licensing agreement with the unrelated property, InnSuites Hotels receives a revenue-based monthly fee in exchange for the use of the trademark.
The Trust’s general partnership interest in the Partnership was 71.41% as of both April 30 and January 31, 2010. The weighted average for the three months ended April 30, 2010 and 2009 was 71.41% and 70.94%, respectively.
PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT
The Partnership Agreement of the Partnership (the “Partnership Agreement”) provides for the issuance of two classes of limited partnership units, Class A and Class B. Such classes are identical in all respects, except that each Class A limited partnership unit is convertible into a like number of Shares of Beneficial Interest of the Trust at any time at the option of the limited partner. A total of 369,391 Class A limited partnership units were issued and outstanding as of both April 30 and January 31, 2010. Additionally, as of April 30 and January 31, 2010, a total of 3,407,938 Class B limited partnership units were held by Mr. Wirth and his affiliates on that date, in lieu of the issuance of Class A limited partnership units. Each Class B limited partnership unit is identical to Class A limited partnership units in all respects, except that Class B limited partnership units are convertible only with the approval of the Board of Trustees, in its sole discretion. If all of the Class A and B limited partnership units were converted, the limited partners in the Partnership would receive 3,777,329 Shares of Beneficial Interest of the Trust as of April 30, 2010. The Trust held 9,434,188 General Partner Units as of both April 30 and January 31, 2010.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The financial statements of the Partnership, InnSuites Hotels and Yuma Hospitality LP are consolidated with the Trust, and all significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month period ended April 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended January 31, 2011. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Trust’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended January 31, 2010.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The accounting policies that the Trust believes are most critical and involve the most subjective judgments include estimates and assumptions of future revenue and expenditures used to project cash flows. Future cash flows are used to determine the recoverability (or impairment) of the carrying values of the Trust’s assets in the event management is required to test an asset for recoverability of carrying value under FASB authoritative guidance related to the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. For hotel properties held for use, if the carrying value of an asset exceeds the estimated future undiscounted cash flows over its estimated remaining life, the Trust recognizes an impairment expense to reduce the asset’s carrying value to its fair value. Fair value is determined by either the most current third-party property appraisal, if available, or the present value of future undiscounted cash flows over the remaining life of the asset. In cases where the Trust does not expect to recover the carrying cost of hotel properties held for sale, it will reduce the carrying value to the sales price less costs to sell. The Trust’s evaluation of future cash flows is based on historical experience and other factors, including certain economic conditions and committed future bookings. The estimated future cash flows are based upon, among other things, assumptions about expected future operating performance and may differ from actual cash flows.
LIQUIDITY
The Trust’s principal source of cash to meet its cash requirements, including distributions to its shareholders, is the Trust’s share of the Partnership’s cash flow and its direct ownership of the Yuma, Arizona property. The Partnership’s principal source of revenue is hotel operations for the four hotel properties it owns. The Trust’s liquidity, including its ability to make distributions to its shareholders, will depend upon the Trust’s ability and the Partnership’s ability to generate sufficient cash flow from hotel operations.
Hotel operations are significantly affected by occupancy and room rates, which decreased from the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 to the first quarter of fiscal year 2011. Results are also significantly impacted by overall economic conditions and conditions in the travel industry. Unfavorable changes in these factors could negatively impact hotel room demand and pricing, which would reduce our profit margins on rented suites.
In past years, the Trust has relied on cash flows from operations to meet its financial obligations as they come due. However, for the remainder of fiscal year 2011 (May 1, 2010 through January 31, 2010), the Trust’s management has projected that cash flows from operations alone may not be sufficient to meet all of its financial obligations as they come due in the last two quarters of fiscal year 2011. Based on this projection, the Trust refinanced its Yuma hotel property, netting enough cash for management to believe that the Trust will meet all of its financial obligations as they come due during fiscal year 2011.
In addition, the Trust has an established $350,000 line of credit, of which approximately all was available at April 30, 2010. Also, management of the Trust is currently exploring the possibility of refinancing certain hotel properties.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Room, food and beverage, telecommunications, management and licensing fees and other revenue are recognized as earned as services are provided and items are sold. Payroll reimbursements are recorded as the Trust provides its personnel to the hotels under management and are not netted with the corresponding payroll expense.
INCOME PER SHARE
Basic and diluted loss per share have been computed based on the weighted-average number of Shares of Beneficial Interest outstanding during the periods and potentially dilutive securities.
For the three months ended April 30, 2010 and 2009, there were Class A and Class B limited partnership units outstanding, which are convertible to Shares of Beneficial Interest of the Trust. Assuming conversion, the aggregate weighted-average incremental increase of the Shares of Beneficial Interest would have been 3,777,329 and 3,839,536 for the first three months of fiscal year 2011 and 2010, respectively.

As of April 30, 2010, the Trust had 8,594,676 Shares of Beneficial Interest outstanding.
4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
As of April 30, 2010 and 2009, Mr. Wirth and his affiliates held 3,407,938 Class B limited partnership units in the Partnership. As of April 30, 2010 and 2009, Mr. Wirth and his affiliates held 5,089,632 and 5,573,624 Shares of Beneficial Interest of the Trust, respectively.
The Trust recognized related party payroll reimbursement revenue and related payroll expense to Mr. Wirth and his affiliates in the amounts of $680,568 and $620,079 for the three months ended April 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
5. NOTES PAYABLE TO BANKS
On March 3, 2008, we established an $850,000 revolving line of credit, replacing a $750,000 line of credit that matured on May 18, 2008. The line of credit, with an original maturity date of July 15, 2009, had no financial covenants and bore interest at Wall Street Journal prime. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2010, we extended the maturity date of the line of credit to June 30, 2010. In addition, the extension agreement implemented an interest rate floor of 6.25%, which was the effective rate as of April 30, 2010, and granted additional security to the lender through a junior lien on the Yuma, Arizona property. On April 7, 2010, in connection with the increase in the amount of the first mortgage on the Yuma property, the amount available under the line of credit was reduced to $350,000. As of April 30, 2010, we had not drawn any of the funds available under the line of credit.
6. MORTGAGE NOTES PAYABLE
On April 7, 2010, we increased our mortgage note payable secured by the Yuma, Arizona property. The new balance of the mortgage note payable is $5.0 million. The additional $1.0 million borrowed bears interest at 8.0% and matures on December 31, 2013. The note is due in monthly interest-only installments of $30,000, an increase of $6,667 from the previous monthly interest-only installments of $23,333. We used the $1.0 million to build operating reserves and reduce payables.
7. STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS, SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURES
The Trust paid $380,111 and $372,863 in cash for interest for the three months ended April 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Two of the Hotels are subject to non-cancelable ground leases expiring in 2033 and 2050. Total expense associated with the non-cancelable ground leases for the three months ended April 30, 2010 was $51,656, plus a variable component based on gross revenues of each property that totaled approximately $27,636.
During the second quarter of fiscal year 2010, the Trust entered into a five-year office lease for its corporate headquarters. The Trust recorded $6,156 of general and administrative expense related to the lease during the three-month period ended April 30, 2010. The Trust recorded no such expense in the prior year period. The lease includes a base rent charge of $24,000 for the first lease year with annual increases to a final year base rent of $39,600. The Trust has the option to cancel the lease after each lease year for penalties of four months rent after the first year with the penalty decreasing by one month’s rent each successive lease year. It is the Trust’s intention to remain in the office for the duration of the five-year lease period.
Future minimum lease payments under the non-cancelable ground leases and office lease are as follows:

The Trust is obligated under loan agreements relating to four of its Hotels to deposit 4% of the individual Hotel’s room revenue into an escrow account to be used for capital expenditures. The escrow funds applicable to the four Hotel properties for which a mortgage lender escrow exists are reported on the Trust’s Consolidated Balance Sheet as “Restricted Cash.”
InnSuites Hotels has entered into franchise arrangements with Best Western International for four of the Hotel properties. These agreements provide for fees to be paid by the Hotels based on revenue and reservations received, and contain no minimum payment provisions.
The nature of the operations of the Hotels exposes them to risks of claims and litigation in the normal course of their business. Although the outcome of these matters cannot be determined, management does not expect that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity of the Trust.
The Trust is involved from time to time in various other claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Trust’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.
We own the sole general partner’s interest in the Partnership. Our principal source of cash flows is from the operations of the Hotels and management and licensing contracts with affiliated and third-party hotels.
Our principal source of cash to meet our cash requirements, including distributions to our shareholders, is our share of the Partnership’s cash flow and our direct ownership of the Yuma, Arizona property. The Partnership’s principal source of revenue is hotel operations for the four hotel properties it owns. Our liquidity, including our ability to make distributions to our shareholders, will depend upon our ability and the Partnership’s ability to generate sufficient cash flow from hotel operations.
Hotel operations are significantly affected by occupancy and room rates, which decreased from the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 to the first quarter of fiscal year 2011. Results are also significantly impacted by overall economic conditions and conditions in the travel industry. Unfavorable changes in these factors could negatively impact hotel room demand and pricing, which would reduce our profit margins on rented suites.
In past years, the Trust has relied on cash flows from operations to meet its financial obligations as they come due. However, for the remainder of fiscal year 2011 (May 1, 2010 through January 31, 2010), the Trust’s management has projected that cash flows from operations alone may not be sufficient to meet all of its financial obligations as they come due in the last two quarters of fiscal year 2011. Based on this projection, the Trust refinanced its Yuma hotel property, netting enough cash for management to believe that the Trust will meet all of its financial obligations as they come due during fiscal year 2011.
In addition, the Trust has an established $350,000 line of credit, of which approximately all was available at April 30, 2010. Also, management of the Trust is currently exploring the possibility of refinancing certain hotel properties.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
In our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2010, we identified the critical accounting policies that affect our more significant estimates and assumptions used in preparing our consolidated financial statements. We believe that the policies we follow for the valuation of our hotel properties, which constitute the majority of our assets, are our most critical policies. Those policies include methods used to recognize and measure any identified impairment of our hotel properties assets. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies since January 31, 2010.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Our expenses consist primarily of hotel operating expenses, property taxes, insurance, corporate overhead, interest on mortgage debt, professional fees and depreciation of the Hotels. Our operating performance is principally related to the performance of the Hotels. Therefore, management believes that a review of the historical performance of the operations of the Hotels, particularly with respect to occupancy, calculated as rooms sold divided by the number of rooms available, average daily rate (“ADR”), calculated as total room revenue divided by number of rooms sold, and revenue per available room (“REVPAR”), calculated as total room revenue divided by the number of rooms available, is appropriate for understanding revenue from the Hotels. Occupancy was 62.2% for the three months ended April 30, 2010, a decrease of 8.0% from the prior year same period. ADR decreased $1.46, or 1.8%, to $80.89. The decrease in ADR and reduced occupancy resulted in a decrease of $7.50, or 13.0%, in REVPAR to $50.33 from $57.83 in the prior year period. The decrease in occupancy is due to the downward trend in our economy, which caused less vacation and fewer business travelers.
The following table shows occupancy, ADR and REVPAR for the periods indicated:

No assurance can be given that the trends reflected in this data will improve or that occupancy, ADR or REVPAR will not continue to decrease as a result of changes in national or local economic or hospitality industry conditions. We expect the current global recession to negatively affect our business at least through the end of this current fiscal year.

For the three months ended April 30, 2010, our total revenue was $4.9 million, a decrease of $568,000, or 10.3%, compared with the prior year period total of $5.5 million. Revenues from hotel operations, which include Room, Food and Beverage, Telecommunications and Other revenues, decreased 12.5% to $4.2 million for the three months ended April 30, 2010, from $4.8 million for the three months ended April 30, 2009. Hotel operations, including Food and Beverage operations, experienced decreases in revenues during the first quarter of fiscal year 2011 due to lower occupancy and increased rate pressure, most prominently at our Yuma, Arizona location as a result of increased supply in the area. Expenses may not decline proportionately with a decline in revenues due to a high degree of operational and financial leverage in the hotel industry.
Total expenses were $4.8 million for the three months ended April 30, 2010, a decrease of $89,000, or 1.8%, from the prior year period total of $4.9 million. Total operating expenses were $4.4 million for the three months ended April 30, 2010, a decrease of $96,000, or 2.1%, from the prior year period total of $4.5 million. The majority of the hotel operating expenses decreased due to lower occupancy.
General and administrative expense was $804,000 for the three months ended April 30, 2010, a decrease of $47,000, or 5.5%, from the prior year period total of $851,000. The decrease was primarily due to reduced professional fees and salary expenses incurred by the Trust.
Total interest expense was $389,000 for the three months ended April 30, 2010, consistent with the prior year period total of $382,000.
FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS (FFO)
We recognize that industry analysts and investors use Funds From Operations (“FFO”) as a financial measure to evaluate and compare equity REITs. We also believe it is meaningful as an indicator of net income, excluding most non-cash items, and provides information about our cash available for distributions, debt service and capital expenditures. We follow the March 1995 interpretation of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) definition of FFO, as amended January 1, 2000, which is calculated (in our case) as net income or loss (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, depreciation and amortization on real estate property and extraordinary items. FFO does not represent cash flows from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not indicative of cash available to fund all of our cash needs. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other GAAP measure as an indicator of performance and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. In addition, our FFO may not be comparable to other companies' FFO due to differing methods of calculating FFO and varying interpretations of the NAREIT definition. The following table shows the reconciliation of FFO to Net Income Attributable to Shares of Beneficial Interest:

FFO decreased approximately $453,000 for the three month period ended April 30, 2010, reflecting a decrease of 49.4% when compared to the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to lower occupancies and room rates resulting in less revenue during the period.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Through our ownership interest in the Partnership, Yuma Hospitality LP and InnSuites Hotels, we have a proportionate share of the benefits and obligations of the Partnership’s and Yuma Hospitality LP’s ownership interests, as well as InnSuites Hotels’ operational interests, in the Hotels. Our principal source of cash to meet our cash requirements, including distributions to our shareholders, is our share of these cash flows. Our liquidity, including our ability to make distributions to our shareholders, will depend upon the ability to generate sufficient cash flows from hotel operations.
We have principal of $622,286 due and payable for the remainder of fiscal year 2011 under mortgage notes payable. For the period between May 1, 2010 and April 30, 2011, we have principal of $840,942 due and payable under mortgage notes payable. We anticipate that current cash balances, future cash flows from operations and available credit will be sufficient to satisfy these obligations as they become due. In the event cash flows from operations are insufficient to satisfy these obligations as they become due, we may seek to refinance properties, negotiate additional credit facilities or issue debt instruments.
We have no principal due and payable for the remainder of fiscal year 2011 or thereafter under notes and advances payable to Mr. Wirth and his affiliates.
On March 3, 2008, we established an $850,000 revolving line of credit, replacing a $750,000 line of credit that matured on May 18, 2008. The line of credit, with an original maturity date of July 15, 2009, had no financial covenants and bore interest at Wall Street Journal prime. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2010, we extended the maturity date of the line of credit to June 30, 2010. In addition, the extension agreement implemented an interest rate floor of 6.25%, which was the effective rate as of April 30, 2010, and granted additional security to the lender through a junior lien on the Yuma, Arizona property. On April 7, 2010, in connection with the increase in the amount of the first mortgage on the Yuma property, the amount available under the line of credit was reduced to $350,000. As of April 30, 2010, we had not drawn any of the funds available under the line of credit.
During the first quarter of fiscal year 2011, we increased our mortgage note payable secured by the Yuma, Arizona property. The new balance of the mortgage note payable is $5.0 million. The additional $1.0 million borrowed bears interest at 8.0% and matures on December 31, 2013. The note is due in monthly interest-only installments of $30,000, an increase of $6,667 from the previous monthly interest-only installments of $23,333. We used the $1.0 million to build operating reserves and reduce payables.
We may seek to negotiate additional credit facilities or issue debt instruments. Any debt incurred or issued by us may be secured or unsecured, long-term, medium-term or short-term, bear interest at a fixed or variable rate and be subject to such other terms as we consider prudent.
We continue to contribute to a Capital Expenditures Fund (the “Fund”) an amount equal to 4% of the Hotels’ room revenues. The Fund is restricted by the mortgage lender for four of our properties. As of April 30, 2010, $128,935 was held in restricted capital expenditure funds and is included on our Balance Sheet as “Restricted Cash.” The Fund is intended to be used for capital improvements to the Hotels and for refurbishment and replacement of furniture, fixtures and equipment, in addition to other uses of amounts in the Fund considered appropriate from time to time. During the three months ended April 30, 2010, the Hotels spent $250,724 for capital expenditures. We consider the majority of these improvements to be revenue producing. Therefore, these amounts have been capitalized and are being depreciated over their estimated useful lives. The Hotels also spent $327,014 and $288,190 during the three-month periods ended April 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, on repairs and maintenance and these amounts have been charged to expense as incurred.
As of April 30, 2010, we have no commitments for capital expenditures beyond the 4% reserve for refurbishment and replacements set aside annually for each hotel property.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET FINANCINGS AND LIABILITIES
Other than lease commitments and legal contingencies incurred in the normal course of business, we do not have any off-balance sheet financing arrangements or liabilities. We do not have any majority-owned subsidiaries that are not included in the consolidated financial statements. (See Note 2 - “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.”)
SEASONALITY
The Hotels’ operations historically have been seasonal. The three southern Arizona hotels experience their highest occupancy in the first fiscal quarter and, to a lesser extent, the fourth fiscal quarter. The second fiscal quarter tends to be the lowest period of occupancy at those three southern Arizona hotels. This seasonality pattern can be expected to cause fluctuations in our quarterly revenue. The two hotels located in California and New Mexico historically experience their most profitable periods during the second and third fiscal quarters (the summer season), providing some balance to the general seasonality of our hotel business. To the extent that cash flows from operations are insufficient during any quarter, because of temporary or seasonal fluctuations in revenue, we may utilize other cash on hand or borrowings to make distributions to our shareholders or to meet operating needs. No assurance can be given that we will make distributions in the future.

ITEM 4(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As of the end of the period covered by this report, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934).
