Forecast Positive but not Bullish • US lodging demand is above 20 year average but RevPar growth is slowing. • The US has recovered pre-recession RevPar, but not Sarasota County. • The northern part of Sarasota County has approximately 2500 hotel/motel rooms but there are 1000 new rooms in development. Experts warn that in a market when supply of hotel inventory grows more than 2%, it can negatively impact performance resulting in lower RevPar. For Sarasota County, it will be vital to drive new demand and develop new market segments. • Nationally, transient strong but group recovery is still sluggish. Group percentage of total occupancy continues to decline. STR DMAI CEO Forum April 2014
