EXPLANATORY NOTE

We refer to Sotherly Hotels Inc. as the "Company," Sotherly Hotels LP as the "Operating Partnership," the Company's common stock as "common stock," the Company's preferred stock as "preferred stock," the Operating Partnership's common partnership interest as "partnership units," and the Operating Partnership's preferred interest as the "preferred units." References to "we" and "our" mean the Company, its Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries and predecessors, collectively, unless the context otherwise requires or where otherwise indicated.

The Company conducts virtually all of its activities through the Operating Partnership and is its sole general partner. The Operating Partnership's partnership agreement provides that the Operating Partnership will assume and pay when due, or reimburse the Company for payment of all costs and expenses relating to the ownership and operations of, or for the benefit of, the Operating Partnership. The partnership agreement further provides that all expenses of the Company are deemed to be incurred for the benefit of the Operating Partnership. The Company does not conduct business itself, other than (a) acting as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, (b) issuing public equity from time to time, and (c) guaranteeing certain unsecured debt of the Operating Partnership and certain of its subsidiaries and affiliates. The Operating Partnership holds substantially all of the assets of the business, directly or indirectly. The Operating Partnership conducts the operations of the business and is structured as a partnership with no publicly traded equity. Except for net proceeds from equity issuances made by the Company, which are generally contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for partnership units, the Operating Partnership generates the capital required by the business through the Operating Partnership's operations, incurrence of indebtedness, and issuance of partnership units to third parties.

This report combines the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2024, of the Company and the Operating Partnership. We believe combining the quarterly reports into this single report results in the following benefits:

•

combined reports better reflect how management and investors view the business as a single operating unit;

•

combined reports enhance investors' understanding of the Company and the Operating Partnership by enabling them to view the business as a whole and in the same manner as management;

•

combined reports are more efficient for the Company and the Operating Partnership and result in savings of time, effort and expense; and

•

combined reports are more efficient for investors by reducing duplicative disclosure and providing a single document for their review.

To help investors understand the significant differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership, this report presents the following separate sections for each of the Company and the Operating Partnership:

•

Consolidated Financial Statements;

•

the following Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements:

•

Note 6 - Preferred Stock and Units;

•

Note 7 - Common Stock and Units;

•

Note 12 - Loss Per Share and Per Unit; and

•

Part I, Item 4 - Controls and Procedures; and

•

Part II, Item 6 - Certifications of CEO and CFO pursuant to Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1. Organization and Description of Business

Sotherly Hotels Inc. (the "Company") is a self-managed and self-administered lodging real estate investment trust ("REIT") that was incorporated in Maryland on August 20, 2004. The Company historically has focused on the acquisition, renovation, upbranding and repositioning of upscale to upper-upscale full-service hotels in the southern United States. The Company's portfolio, as of March 31, 2024, consisted of investments in ten hotel properties, comprising 2,786rooms and twohotel commercial condominium units and their associated rental programs. Sevenof our hotels operated under the Hilton, DoubleTree, and Hyatt brands, and threeare independent hotels.

The Company commenced operations on December 21, 2004, when it completed its initial public offering and thereafter consummated the acquisition of sixhotel properties (the "Initial Properties"). Substantially all of the Company's assets are held by, and all of its operations are conducted through, Sotherly Hotels LP (the "Operating Partnership").

Pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement") of the Operating Partnership, the Company, as general partner, is not entitled to compensation for its services to the Operating Partnership. The Company, as general partner, conducts substantially all of its operations through the Operating Partnership and the Company's administrative expenses are the obligations of the Operating Partnership. Additionally, the Company is entitled to reimbursement for any expenditure incurred by it on the Operating Partnership's behalf.

For the Company to qualify as a REIT, it cannot operate hotels. Therefore, the Operating Partnership, which at March 31, 2024was approximately 98.2% owned by the Company, and its subsidiaries, lease its hotels to direct and indirect subsidiaries of MHI Hospitality TRS Holding, Inc., MHI Hospitality TRS, LLC and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, "MHI TRS Entities"), each of which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Operating Partnership. The MHI TRS Entities have engaged Our Town Hospitality, LLC ("Our Town"), an eligible independent management company, to operate the hotels under management contracts. MHI Hospitality TRS Holding, Inc. ("MHI TRS") is treated as a taxable REIT subsidiary for federal income tax purposes.

All references in these "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" to "we", "us", "our" and "Sotherly" refer to the Company, its Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries and predecessors, collectively, unless the context otherwise requires or where otherwise indicated.

Overview of Significant Transactions

Significant transactions occurring during the current period and prior fiscal year include the following:

On February 26, 2023, the Company entered into amended loan documents to modify the mortgage loan on The Whitehall hotel located in Houston, TX with the lender, International Bank of Commerce. The amendment (i) extends the maturity date toFebruary 26, 2028; (ii) maintains a floating interest rate of New York Prime Rate plus 1.25%; and (iii) subjects the interest rate to a floor rate of 7.50%. The mortgage loan continues to be guaranteed by the Operating Partnership. The amendment also required us to establish a real estate tax reserve as well as a debt service reserve that approximates the aggregate amount of one year's debt service, which was initially established at approximately $1.5million.

On March 14, 2023, the Company entered into amended loan documents to modify the mortgage loan on the DoubleTree by Hilton Philadelphia Airport with the lender, TD Bank, N.A. The amendment provided a waiver for non-compliance with financial covenants for the periods ended September 30 and December 31, 2022, modified the reference rate replacing 1-month LIBOR with SOFR and required us to establish a debt service coverage reserve of $0.3million.

On May 4, 2023, affiliates of the Company entered into loan documents to secure a $10.0million mortgage loan on the DoubleTree by Hilton Laurel hotel located in Laurel, MD with Citi Real Estate Funding Inc. Pursuant to the loan documents, the mortgage loan: (i) has a principal balance of $10.0million; (ii) has a maturity date of May 6, 2028; (iii) carries a fixed interest rate of 7.35%; (iv) requires payments of interest only; (v) cannot be prepaid until the last 4 months of the loan term; and (vi) contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and events of default for a mortgage loan.

On February 7, 2024, affiliates of the Company entered into loan documents to secure a $35.0million mortgage loan on the Hotel Alba Tampa located in Tampa, Florida with Citi Real Estate Funding Inc. The Company received approximately $10.2million in net proceeds. Pursuant to the loan documents, the mortgage loan: (i) has a principal balance of $35.0million; (ii) has a 5year term maturing on March 6, 2029; (iii) carries a fixed interest rate of 8.49%; (iv) requires payments of interest only; (v) is guaranteed by the Operating Partnership only for traditional "bad boy" acts; (vi) cannot be prepaid until the last four months of the term; (vii) and contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and events of default for a mortgage loan.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation- The consolidated financial statements of the Company presented herein include all of the accounts of Sotherly Hotels Inc., the Operating Partnership, MHI TRS and subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

The consolidated financial statements of the Operating Partnership presented herein include all of the accounts of Sotherly Hotels LP, MHI TRS and subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated. Additionally, all administrative expenses of the Company and those expenditures made by the Company on behalf of the Operating Partnership are reflected as the administrative expenses, expenditures and obligations thereto of the Operating Partnership, pursuant to the terms of the Partnership Agreement.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has mortgages maturing during 2025 with balances at maturity totaling approximately $87.5million which it will be unable to repay out of working capital. As discussed in Note 4, Debt, the Company intends to repay the mortgage obligations when they become due through a combination of proceeds from a refinance of the properties and working capital. However, there can be no assurances that we will be able to obtain future financing on acceptable terms, if at all. Further, as of September 30, 2024, we failed to maintain compliance with the financial covenants under the mortgage on the DoubleTree by Hilton Jacksonville Riverfront. Per the terms of the mortgage loan agreement, we are permitted either to reduce the outstanding balance with a prepayment estimated at no more than $1.2million or provide an equivalent amount of cash collateral until we return to compliance. We anticipate the placement of cash collateral with the lender before the end of December 2024. We believe these plans will be effectively implemented.

Variable Interest Entities -The Operating Partnership is a variable interest entity. The Company's only significant asset is its investment in the Operating Partnership, and consequently, substantially all of the Company's assets and liabilities represent those assets and liabilities of the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries. All of the Company's debt is an obligation of the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries.

Investment in Hotel Properties- Investments in hotel properties include investments in operating properties which are recorded at fair value on the acquisition date and allocated to land, property and equipment and identifiable intangible assets. If substantially all the fair value of the gross assets acquired are concentrated in a single identifiable asset, the asset is not considered a business. When we conclude that an acquisition meets this threshold, acquisition costs will be capitalized as part of our allocation of the purchase price of the acquired asset. We capitalize the costs of significant additions and improvements that materially upgrade, increase the value of or extend the useful life of the property. These costs may include refurbishment, renovation, and remodeling expenditures, as well as certain direct internal costs related to construction projects. Upon the sale or retirement of a fixed asset, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from our accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the statements of operations.

Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally7to 39 yearsfor buildings and building improvements and 3to 10 yearsfor furniture, fixtures and equipment.

The Company assesses the carrying value of its investments in hotel properties whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the hotel properties may not be recoverable. Events or circumstances that may cause a review include, but are not limited to, adverse permanent changes in the demand for lodging at the properties due to declining national or local economic conditions and/or new hotel construction in markets where the hotels are located. When such conditions exist, management performs an analysis to determine if the estimated undiscounted future cash flows from operations and the proceeds from the ultimate disposition of a hotel property exceeds its carrying value. If the estimated undiscounted future cash flows are found to be less than the carrying amount of the asset, an adjustment to reduce the carrying amount to the related hotel property's estimated fair market value would be recorded and an impairment loss recognized.

The Company recognized noimpairment losses for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

Cash and Cash Equivalents- We consider all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Restricted Cash- Restricted cash includes real estate tax escrows, insurance escrows, mortgage servicing and reserves for replacements of furniture, fixtures and equipment pursuant to certain requirements in our various mortgage agreements.


	As of		As of
	March 31, 2024		March 31, 2023
Cash and cash equivalents	$	29,285,600		$	23,429,595
Restricted cash		10,341,209			8,556,641
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash at the end of the period	$	39,626,809		$	31,986,236

Concentration of Credit Risk- We hold cash accounts at several institutions in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC") and National Credit Union Administration (the "NCUA") protection limits of $250,000. Our exposure to credit loss in the event of the failure of these institutions is represented by the difference between the FDIC or NCUA protection limit and the total amounts on deposit. Management monitors, on a regular basis, the financial condition of the financial institutions along with the balances there on deposit to minimize our potential risk.

Accounts Receivable- Accounts receivable consists primarily of amounts due from hotel guests including payments rendered by credit card for which we are awaiting payment from the merchant processor. Most of our revenue is collected through payment by cash or credit card on or in advance of the date of service, with limited extension of credit to a small number of customers. An allowance for potential credit losses is provided against the portion of accounts receivable that is estimated to be uncollectible.

Inventories - Inventories, consisting primarily of food and beverages, are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined on a method that approximates first-in, first-out basis.

Franchise License Fees - Fees expended to obtain or renew a franchise license are amortized over the life of the license or renewal. The unamortized franchise fees as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023were $184,930and $195,988, respectively. Amortization expense for the three month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, totaled $11,059and $11,874, respectively.

Deferred Financing Costs -Deferred financing costs are recorded at cost and consist of loan fees and other costs incurred in issuing debt and are reflected in mortgage loans, net and unsecured notes, net on the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred offering costs are recorded at cost and consist of offering fees and other costs incurred in advance of issuing equity and are reflected in prepaid expenses, inventory and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Amortization of deferred financing costs is computed using a method that approximates the effective interest method over the term of the related debt and is included in interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations.

Derivative Instruments - Our derivative instruments are reflected as assets or liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets and measured at fair value. Derivative instruments used to hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as an interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivative instruments used to hedge exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. For a derivative instrument designated as a cash flow hedge, the change in fair value each period is reported in accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders' equity and partners' capital to the extent the hedge is effective. For a derivative instrument designated as a fair value hedge, the change in fair value each period is reported in earnings along with the change in fair value of the hedged item attributable to the risk being hedged. For a derivative instrument that does not qualify for hedge accounting or is not designated as a hedge, the change in fair value each period is reported in earnings.

We use derivative instruments to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest-rate movements. To accomplish this objective, we currently use interest rate swaps which act as cash flow hedges and are not designated as hedges. We value our interest rate swaps at fair value, which we define as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). We do not enter into contracts to purchase or sell derivative instruments for speculative trading purposes.

Fair Value Measurements - We classify the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:


Level 1	Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2	Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability.


Level 3	Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

We endeavor to utilize the best available information in measuring fair value. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following table represents our assets and liabilities measured at fair value and the basis for that measurement (our interest rate swaps are the only assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, there were no non-recurring assets or liabilities for fair value measurements as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively):


	March 31, 2024		December 31, 2023
	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Financial Assets
Interest-rate swap(1)	$ -		$ -		$	627,676		$	627,676

Financial Liabilities
Mortgage loans	$	(325,106,994	)	$	(314,241,243	)	$	(315,989,194	)	$	(303,949,790	)

(1)

The interest-rate swap agreement allowed the Company to receive a variable rate of interest based upon 1-month SOFRin exchange for a fixed rate of 2.826% on a notional amount which approximated the declining balance of the mortgage loan on the Hotel Alba. The interest-rate swap was terminated on February 14, 2024.

The fair value of the Company's interest rate swap agreement was determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash payments and the discounted expected variable cash receipts, which is considered a Level 2 measurement under the fair value hierarchy. The variable cash receipts are based on an expectation of future interest rates (forward yield curves) derived from observable market interest rates.

The Company estimates the fair value of its mortgage loans by discounting the future cash flows of each loan at estimated market rates consistent with the maturity of a mortgage loan with similar credit terms and credit characteristics, which are Level 2 inputs under the fair value hierarchy. Market rates take into consideration general market conditions and maturity.

Noncontrolling Interest in Operating Partnership- Certain hotel properties were acquired, in part, by the Operating Partnership through the issuance of limited partnership units of the Operating Partnership. The noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership is: (i) increased or decreased by the limited partners' pro-rata share of the Operating Partnership's net income or net loss, respectively; (ii) decreased by distributions; (iii) decreased by redemption of partnership units for the Company's common stock; and (iv) adjusted to equal the net equity of the Operating Partnership multiplied by the limited partners' ownership percentage immediately after each issuance of units of the Operating Partnership and/or the Company's common stock through an adjustment to additional paid-in capital. Net income or net loss is allocated to the noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership based on the weighted average percentage ownership throughout the period.

Revenue Recognition- Revenue consists of amounts derived from hotel operations, including the rental of rooms, sales of food and beverage, and other ancillary services. Room revenue is recognized over a customer's hotel stay. Revenue from food and beverage and other ancillary services is generated when a customer chooses to purchase goods or services separately from a hotel room and revenue is recognized on these distinct goods and services at the point in time or over the time period that goods or services are provided to the customer. Some contracts for rooms or food and beverage services require an upfront deposit which is recorded as advanced deposits (or contract liabilities) shown on our consolidated balance sheets and recognized once the performance obligations are satisfied.

Certain ancillary services are provided by third parties and the Company assesses whether it is the principal or agent in these arrangements. If the Company is the agent, revenue is recognized based upon the gross commission earned from the third party. If the Company is the principal, the Company recognizes revenue based upon the gross sales price. With respect to the hotel condominium rental programs that the Company operates at the Lyfe Resort & Residences (f/k/a Hyde Resort & Residences) and Hyde Beach House Resort & Residences, the Company has determined that it is an agent and recognizes revenue based on its share of revenue earned under the rental agency agreement.

Certain of the Company's hotels have retail spaces, restaurants or other spaces which the Company leases to third parties. Lease revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease and included in other operating revenues in the Company's consolidated statements of operations.

The Company collects sales, use, occupancy and similar taxes at its hotels which are presented on a net basis on the consolidated statements of operations.

Lease Revenue- Several of our properties generate revenue from leasing the restaurant space within the hotel and space on the roofs of our hotels for antennas and satellite dishes. Leases for the restaurant space within the hotel are leased under 10-yearleases which expire between September 2027and May 2034and include two additional 5-yearrenewal options. The leases require periodic increases in base rent and may require payments of percentage rent as well. Leases for the space on the roofs of our hotels for antennas and satellite dishes are leased under various periods ranging from 1year to 10years with renewal options for as many as five additional 5-yearperiods, with some exceptions. As of March 31, 2024, the leases for space on the roofs of our hotels expire between April 2024and May 2028. Several leases require periodic increases in base rent. We account for the lease income as revenue from other operating departments within the consolidated statements of operations pursuant to the terms of each lease. Lease revenue was approximately $0.3million for each of the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

A schedule of minimum future lease payments receivable for the remaining nine and twelve-month periods is as follows:


For the nine months ending December 31, 2024	$	711,833
December 31, 2025		929,888
December 31, 2026		863,128
December 31, 2027		851,527
December 31, 2028		861,311
December 31, 2029 and thereafter		9,744,903
Total	$	13,962,590

Lessee Accounting - The Company's operating lease agreements primarily include the ground lease on the Hyatt Centric Arlington, the parking garage lease in Hollywood, Florida at the Hyde Beach House Resort & Residences, and the corporate office lease. The assets are classified as "right of use assets", which represent our right to use an underlying asset. The corresponding operating lease liability, which represent our obligation to make lease payments under the lease agreement, is classified within "accounts payable and other accrued liabilities". Right of use assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Variable lease payments are excluded from the right of use assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. As our leases do not provide an implicit financing rate, we use our incremental borrowing cost based on information available at the commencement date using our actual borrowing rates commensurate with the lease terms and fully levered borrowing to determine present value. Extension options on our leases are included in our minimum lease terms when they are reasonably certain to be exercised.

Income Taxes- The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax. MHI TRS, our wholly owned taxable REIT subsidiary which leases our hotels from subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership, is subject to federal and state income taxes.

We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. A valuation allowance is required for deferred tax assets if, based on all available evidence, it is "more-likely-than-not" that all or a portion of the deferred tax asset will or will not be realized due to the inability to generate sufficient taxable income in certain financial statement periods. The "more-likely-than-not" analysis means the likelihood of realization is greater than 50%, that we either will or will not be able to fully utilize the deferred tax assets against future taxable income. The net amount of deferred tax assets that are recorded on the financial statements must reflect the tax benefits that are expected to be realized using these criteria. As of March 31, 2024, we have determined that it is more-likely-than-not that we will not be able to fully utilize our deferred tax assets for future tax consequences, therefore a 100% valuation allowance is required. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, deferred tax assets each totaled $0.

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had nouncertain tax positions. Our policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense.

In addition, as of March 31, 2024, the tax years that remain subject to examination by the major tax jurisdictions to which MHI TRS is subject, because of open NOL carryforwards, generally include 2012 through 2023.

The Operating Partnership is generally not subject to federal and state income taxes as the unit holders of the Partnership are subject to tax on their respective shares of the Partnership's taxable income.

Stock-based Compensation- The Company's 2022 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "2022 Plan"), which the Company's stockholders approved in April 2022, permits the grant of stock options, restricted stock, unrestricted stock and service/performance share compensation awards to its employees and directors for up to 2,000,000shares of common stock. The Company believes that such awards better align the interests of its employees with those of its stockholders.

Under the 2022 Plan, the Company may issue a variety of service or performance-based stock awards, including nonqualified stock options. The value of the awards is charged to compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting or service period based on the value of the award as determined by the Company's stock price on the date of grant or issuance. As of March 31, 2024, 604,028service-based stock awards have been granted, including 468,278unrestricted shares and 135,750restricted shares issued to certain executives and its independent directors. Total compensation cost recognized under the 2022 Plan for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023was $226,312and $225,386, respectively.

The Company's 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "2013 Plan"), which the Company's stockholders approved in April 2013, permits the grant of stock options, restricted stock, unrestricted stock and service or performance share compensation awards to its employees and directors for up to 750,000shares of common stock. All future awards will be made under the 2022 Plan.

As of March 31, 2024, under the 2013 Plan, the Company has made cumulative service-based stock awards totaling 745,160shares, including 700,160unrestricted shares and 45,000restricted shares issued to certain executives and employees and to its independent directors. All awards have vested except for 45,000shares issued to certain employees, which will vest on December 31, 2024. The remaining 4,840shares have been deregistered.

Under the 2013 Plan, the Company was able to issue a variety of performance-based stock awards, including nonqualified stock options. The value of the awards is charged to compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting or service period based on the value of the award as determined by the Company's stock price on the date of grant or issuance. As of March 31, 2024, noperformance-based stock awards have been granted. Total compensation cost recognized under the 2013 Plan for each of the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023was $22,883.

Additionally, the Company sponsors and maintains an Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") and related trust for the benefit of its eligible employees. We reflect unearned ESOP shares as a reduction of stockholders' equity. Dividends on unearned ESOP shares, when paid, are considered a compensation expense. The Company recognizes compensation expense equal to the fair value of the Company's ESOP shares during the periods in which they are committed to be released. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the ESOP compensation cost was $6,759and $12,195, respectively. To the extent that the fair value of the Company's ESOP shares differs from the cost of such shares, the differential is recognized as additional paid in capital. Because the ESOP is internally leveraged through a loan from the Company to the ESOP, the loan receivable by the Company from the ESOP is not reported as an asset nor is the debt of the ESOP shown as a liability in the consolidated financial statements.

Advertising - Advertising costs, including internet advertising, were $676,032and $705,703for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.

Involuntary Conversion of Assets -We record gains or losses on involuntary conversions of assets due to recovered insurance proceeds to the extent the undepreciated cost of a nonmonetary asset differs from the amount of monetary proceeds received. The gain on involuntary conversion of assets is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations.

Comprehensive Income - Comprehensive income as defined, includes all changes in equity during a period from non-owner sources. We do not have any items of comprehensive income other than net income.

Segment Information- We have determined that our business is conducted in onereportable segment: hotel ownership.

Use of Estimates- The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

New Accounting Pronouncements - In October 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC's Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative ("ASU 2023-06"). ASU 2023-06 incorporates 14 of the 27 disclosure requirements published in

SEC Release No. 33-10532 - Disclosure Update and Simplification into various topics within the Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC"). ASU 2023-06's amendments represent clarifications to, or technical corrections of, current requirements. For SEC registrants, the effective date for each amendment will vary based on the date on which the SEC removes that related disclosure from its rules. If the SEC does not act to remove its related requirement by June 30, 2027, any related FASB amendments will be removed from the ASC and will not be effective. Early adoption is prohibited. The Company is currently assessing the potential impacts of ASU 2023-06 and does not expect it to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures ("ASU 2023-07"). ASU 2023-07 expands public entities' segment disclosures by requiring disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, an amount and description of its composition for other segment items, and interim disclosures of a reportable segment's profit or loss and assets. All disclosure requirements under ASU 2023-07 are also required for public entities with a single reportable segment. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The amendments should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently assessing the impacts of adopting ASU 2023-07 on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09"). ASU 2023-09 requires entities to disclose disaggregated information about their effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The amendments should be applied on a prospective basis, with the option to apply retrospectively. The Company is currently assessing the impacts of adopting ASU 2023-09 on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-01, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope Application of Profits Interest and Similar Awards ("ASU 2024-01"), to clarify the scope application of profits interest and similar awards by adding illustrative guidance in ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation ("ASC 718"). ASU 2024-01 clarifies how to determine whether profits interest and similar awards should be accounted for as a share-based payment arrangement (ASC 718) or as a cash bonus or profit-sharing arrangement (ASC 710, Compensation-General, or other guidance) and applies to all reporting entities that account for profits interest awards as compensation to employees or non-employees. In addition to adding the illustrative guidance, ASU 2024-01 modified the language in paragraph 718-10-15-3 to improve its clarity and operability without changing the guidance. ASU 2024-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied either retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements, or prospectively to profits interests and similar awards granted or modified on or after the adoption date. The Company is currently assessing the impacts of adopting ASU 2024-01 on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

12. Loss Per Share and Per Unit

Loss Per Share -The limited partners' outstanding limited partnership units in the Operating Partnership (which may be redeemed for common stock upon notice from the limited partner and following our election to redeem the units for stock rather than cash) have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as there would be no effect on the amounts since the limited partners' share of income or loss would also be added back to net income or loss. The shares of the Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock are not convertible into or exchangeable for any other property or securities of the Company, except upon the occurrence of a change of control, and have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation

as there would be no impact on the current controlling stockholders. The non-committed, unearned ESOP shares are treated as reducing the number of issued and outstanding common shares and similarly reducing the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The unallocated ESOP shares have been excluded in the weighted average for the basic and diluted earnings per share computation. The computation of basic net loss per share is presented below:

Our grants of restricted stock awards to our employees

and directors are considered participating securities, and we have prepared our earnings per share calculations to include outstanding unvested restricted stock awards in the basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding calculation.

Overview

Sotherly Hotels Inc. is a self-managed and self-administered lodging REIT incorporated in Maryland in August 2004 and focused on the acquisition, renovation, up-branding and repositioning of upscale to upper-upscale full-service hotels in the southern United States. Sotherly may also opportunistically acquire hotels throughout the United States. Substantially all of the assets of Sotherly Hotels Inc. are held by, and all of its operations are conducted through, Sotherly Hotels LP. We commenced operations in December 2004 when we completed our initial public offering and thereafter consummated the acquisition of the Initial Properties.

Our hotel portfolio currently consists of ten full-service, primarily upscale and upper-upscale hotels, comprising 2,786 rooms, as well as interests in two condominium hotels and their associated rental programs. The Company owns hotels that operate under well-known brands such as DoubleTree by Hilton, Tapestry Collection by Hilton, and Hyatt Centric, as well as independent hotels. We sometimes refer to our independent and soft-branded properties as our collection of boutique hotels. As of March 31, 2024, our portfolio consisted of the following hotel properties:

Reflects only those condominium units that were participating in the rental program, as of March 31, 2024. At any given time, some portion of the units participating in our rental program may be occupied by the unit owner(s) and unavailable for rental to hotel guests. We sometimes refer to each participating condominium unit as a "room."

We conduct substantially all our business through our Operating Partnership. We are the sole general partner of our Operating Partnership, and we own an approximate 98.2% interest in our Operating Partnership, as of the date of this report, with the remaining interest being held by limited partners who were the contributors of our Initial Properties and related assets.

To qualify as a REIT, neither the Company nor the Operating Partnership can operate our hotels. Therefore, our wholly-owned hotel properties are leased to our MHI TRS Entities, which are indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership. Our MHI TRS Entities then engage an eligible independent hotel management company to operate the hotels under a management

agreement. Our MHI TRS Entities have engaged Our Town to manage our hotels. Our MHI TRS Entities, and their parent, MHI Hospitality TRS Holding, Inc., are consolidated into each of our financial statements for accounting purposes. The earnings of MHI Hospitality TRS Holding, Inc. are subject to taxation similar to other C corporations.

Key Operating Metrics

In the hotel industry, room revenue is considered the most important category of revenue and drives other revenue categories such as food, beverage, catering, parking, and telephone. There are three key performance indicators used in the hotel industry to measure room revenues:

•

Occupancy, or the number of rooms sold, usually expressed as a percentage of total rooms available;

•

Average daily rate, or ADR, which is total room revenue divided by the number of rooms sold; and

•

Revenue per available room, or RevPAR, which is total room revenue divided by the total number of available rooms.

RevPAR changes that are primarily driven by changes in occupancy have different implications for overall revenues and profitability than changes that are driven primarily by changes in ADR. For example, an increase in occupancy at a hotel would lead to additional variable operating costs (such as housekeeping services, laundry, utilities, room supplies, franchise fees, management fees, credit card commissions and reservations expense), but could also result in increased non-room revenue from the hotel's restaurant, banquet or parking facilities. Changes in RevPAR that are primarily driven by changes in ADR typically have a greater impact on operating margins and profitability as they do not generate all of the additional variable operating costs associated with higher occupancy.

When calculating composite portfolio metrics, we include available rooms at the Lyfe Resort & Residences and the Hyde Beach House Resort & Residences that participate in our rental programs and are not reserved for owner-occupancy.

We also use FFO, Adjusted FFO and Hotel EBITDA as measures of our operating performance. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures."

Results of Operations

The following tables illustrate the key operating metrics for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, for the Company's wholly-owned properties ("actual" portfolio metrics). Accordingly, the actual data does not include the participating condominium hotel rooms of the Lyfe Resort & Residences and the Hyde Beach House Resort & Residences. The composite portfolio metrics represent the Company's wholly-owned properties and the participating condominium hotel rooms at the Lyfe Resort & Residences and the Hyde Beach House Resort & Residences, during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and the corresponding period in 2023.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2024, to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2023

Revenue. Total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024, increased by approximately $3.0 million, or 7.0%, to approximately $46.5 million compared to total revenue of approximately $43.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Increases in total revenue at eight of our properties of approximately $4.0 million, were offset by decreases at four of our other properties, by approximately $1.0 million. The aggregate increase in total revenue reflects an overall increase in room occupancy by 4.5%. We also received higher food and beverage revenues and increased other operating revenues, coming from better group business for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, versus the comparable period in 2023.

Room revenue increased approximately $1.3 million, or 4.7%, to approximately $29.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to room revenue of approximately $28.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. RevPAR for the three month period increased 3.8% from $119.06 in 2023, to $123.59 in 2024, driven by a 4.5% increase in occupancy. Increases in room revenue at eight of our wholly-owned properties were driven by increases in small group and corporate business travel demand and offset room revenue decreases at the remaining two wholly-owned properties.

Food and beverage revenues increased approximately $1.0 million, or 11.5%, to approximately $9.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to food and beverage revenues of approximately $8.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Increases in banqueting and catering for small groups and meetings as well as increases in demand at our restaurant outlets at seven of our wholly-owned properties offset decreases at the remaining three wholly-owned properties.

Revenue from other operating departments increased approximately $0.7 million, or 11.3%, to approximately $7.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to revenue from other operating departments of approximately $6.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Most of the increases related to higher net revenue related to the rental programs we manage for participating unit owners at the condominium hotel properties in Hollywood, Florida and increases in parking revenues.

Hotel Operating Expenses. Hotel operating expenses, which consist of room expenses, food and beverage expenses, other direct expenses, indirect expenses and management fees, increased approximately $2.8 million, or 8.8%, to approximately $34.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to total hotel operating expenses of approximately $31.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase in hotel operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2024, resulted from an aggregate increase at ten of our hotel properties by approximately $3.4 million, offset by decreases totaling approximately $0.6 million from two of our properties. This increase in hotel operating expenses was directly related to the increases in room revenues, food and beverage revenues and other operating expenses at a number of our hotels and higher indirect expenses as described below.

Room expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024 increased by approximately $0.1 million, or 2.2%, to approximately $6.5 million, compared to rooms expense for the three months ended March 31, 2023 of approximately $6.4 million. The increase was directly related to the increase in room revenue.

Food and beverage expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2024 increased approximately $0.5 million, or 8.9%, to approximately $6.4 million, compared to food and beverage expenses of approximately $5.9 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The net increase in food and beverage expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2024, resulted from an aggregate increase of approximately $0.7 million from eight of our properties, with offsetting decreases at our remaining properties. The increase was directly related to the increase in food and beverage revenue.

Expenses from other operating departments for the three months ended March 31, 2024, increased approximately $0.4 million or 16.0%, to approximately $2.7 million, compared to other operating departments expense for the three months ended March 31, 2023 of approximately $2.3 million. The increase was directly related to the increase in other departments revenue.

Indirect expenses at our wholly-owned properties for the three months ended March 31, 2024 increased approximately $1.7 million, or 10.4%, to approximately $18.5 million, compared to indirect expenses of approximately $16.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Increases in real estate property taxes of approximately $0.5 million, in insurance expenses by approximately $0.8 million, driven by increases in premiums for property and casualty coverage, also increases in energy and utilities and increased payroll costs due to increased staffing levels accounted for the amount of the increase in indirect expenses.

Corporate General and Administrative.Corporate general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2024, decreased approximately $0.1 million, or 3.2%, to approximately $1.9 million compared to corporate general and administrative expenses of approximately $2.0 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2023. A decrease in professional fees for the current quarter accounted for the majority of this decrease.

Interest Expense. Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024, increased approximately $0.8 million, or 18.8%, to approximately $4.9 million, as compared to interest expense of approximately $4.1 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase in interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024, was substantially related to increases from interest rate swaps ending for both our mortgage loans on our properties DoubleTree by Hilton Philadelphia Airport and Hotel Alba Tampa, Tapestry Collection by Hilton. This affected the interest expense by increasing interest rates on these variable rate mortgages. We also refinanced the Hotel Alba Tampa, Tapestry Collection by Hilton mortgage during the quarter ended March 31, 2024, which increased the loan amount and increased the interest rate to a fixed rate of 8.49%.

Realized Gain and Unrealized Loss on Hedging Activities. As of March 31, 2024, there were no interest rate swaps or caps. The realized gain on hedging activities during the three months ended March 31, 2024, was approximately $1.0 million, due to

termination of the Hotel Alba Tampa, Tapestry Collection by Hilton interest rate swap. There was also an unrealized loss on the fair value of this swap of approximately $0.7 million, resulting in a net gain of approximately $0.3 million, compared to a loss of approximately $0.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Gain on Involuntary Conversion of Assets.Gain on involuntary conversion of assets increased approximately $0.1 million, from approximately $0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 to approximately $0.1 million, for the three months ending March 31, 2024. The gain was related to casualties at one of our properties in Hollywood, Florida.

Income Taxes.We had an income tax provision of $18,093 for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to an income tax provision of $15,182, for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Net Income. We realized a net income for the three months ended March 31, 2024, of approximately $1.3 million, compared to a net income of approximately $1.4 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2023, because of the operating results discussed above.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We consider the non-GAAP financial measures of FFO attributable to common stockholders and unitholders (including FFO per common share and unit), Adjusted FFO attributable to common stockholders and unitholders, EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA to be key supplemental measures of the Company's performance and could be considered along with, not alternatives to, net income (loss) as a measure of the Company's performance. These measures do not represent cash generated from operating activities determined by generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") or amounts available for the Company's discretionary use and should not be considered alternative measures of net income, cash flows from operations or any other operating performance measure prescribed by GAAP.

FFO and Adjusted FFO. Industry analysts and investors use Funds from Operations ("FFO"), as a supplemental operating performance measure of an equity REIT. FFO is calculated in accordance with the definition adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"). FFO, as defined by NAREIT, represents net income or loss determined in accordance with GAAP, excluding extraordinary items as defined under GAAP and gains or losses from sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets, gains or losses from involuntary conversions of assets, plus certain non-cash items such as real estate asset depreciation and amortization or impairment, stock compensation costs and after adjustment for any noncontrolling interest from unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many investors and analysts have considered the presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by itself.

We consider FFO to be a useful measure of adjusted net income (loss) for reviewing comparative operating and financial performance because we believe FFO is most directly comparable to net income (loss), which remains the primary measure of performance, because by excluding gains or losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets and excluding real estate asset depreciation and amortization, FFO assists in comparing the operating performance of a company's real estate between periods or as compared to different companies. Although FFO is intended to be a REIT industry standard, other companies may not calculate FFO in the same manner as we do, and investors should not assume that FFO as reported by us is comparable to FFO as reported by other REITs.

We further adjust FFO Attributable to Common Stockholders and Unitholders for certain additional items that are not in NAREIT's definition of FFO, including changes in deferred income taxes, any unrealized gain (loss) on hedging instruments or warrant derivative, loan impairment losses, losses on early extinguishment of debt, gains on extinguishment of preferred stock, aborted offering costs, loan modification fees, franchise termination costs, costs associated with the departure of executive officers, litigation settlement, over-assessed real estate taxes on appeal, management contract termination costs, operating asset depreciation and amortization, change in control gains or losses, ESOP and stock compensation expenses and acquisition transaction costs. We exclude these items as we believe it allows for meaningful comparisons between periods and among other REITs and is more

indicative than FFO of the on-going performance of our business and assets. Our calculation of adjusted FFO may be different from similar measures calculated by other REITs.

The following is a reconciliation of net income to FFO and Adjusted FFO, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023:


	Three Months Ended			Three Months Ended
	March 31, 2024			March 31, 2023
Net income	$	1,322,821			$	1,387,514

FFO per common share and unit	$	0.20			$	0.20

Adjusted FFO per common share and unit	$	0.26			$	0.24

EBITDA. We believe that excluding the effect of non-operating expenses and non-cash charges, and the portion of those items related to unconsolidated entities, all of which are also based on historical cost accounting and may be of limited significance in evaluating current performance, can help eliminate the accounting effects of depreciation and financing decisions and facilitate comparisons of core operating profitability between periods and between REITs, even though EBITDA also does not represent an amount that accrued directly to shareholders.

Hotel EBITDA. We define Hotel EBITDA as net income or loss excluding: (1) interest expense, (2) interest income, (3) income tax provision or benefit, (4) depreciation and amortization, (5) impairment of long-lived assets or investments, (6) gains and losses on disposal and/or sale of assets, (7) gains and losses on involuntary conversions of assets, (8) realized and unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments not included in other comprehensive income, (9) loss on early debt extinguishment, (10) Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) debt forgiveness, (11) gain on exercise of development right, (12) corporate general and administrative expense, and (13) other operating revenue not related to our wholly-owned portfolio. We believe this provides a more complete understanding of the operating results over which our wholly-owned hotels and its operators have direct control. We believe Hotel EBITDA provides investors with supplemental information on the on-going operational performance of our hotels and the effectiveness of third-party management companies operating our business on a property-level basis.

The following is a reconciliation of net income to Hotel EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023:


	Three Months Ended			Three Months Ended

Sources and Uses of Cash

Our principal sources of cash are cash from hotel operations, proceeds from the sale of common and preferred stock, proceeds from the sale of secured and unsecured notes, proceeds of mortgage and other debt and hotel property sales. Our principal uses of cash are acquisitions of hotel properties, capital expenditures, debt service and balloon maturities, operating costs, corporate expenses and dividends. As of March 31, 2024, we had approximately $29.3 million of unrestricted cash and $10.3 million of restricted cash.

Operating Activities. Our net cash flow provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024, was approximately $8.1 million, generally consisting of net cash flow provided by hotel operations. The positive cash flow from operations during the quarter and increase from the prior year was due to the increase in occupancy at our hotels as a result of increases in leisure transient, small group and corporate business travel. Cash used in or provided by operating activities generally consists of the cash flow from hotel operations, offset by the interest portion of our debt service, corporate expenses and positive or negative changes in working capital.

Investing Activities.Our cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024, was approximately $2.3 million. Of this amount approximately $2.4 million was related to capital expenditures for improvements and additions to hotel properties. There were also insurance proceeds related to involuntary conversions of approximately $0.1 million.

Financing Activities. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company and Operating Partnership received proceeds from a mortgage loan of $35.0 million, received proceeds from the redemption of the Tampa interest rate swap of approximately $1.0 million, made principal payments on our mortgages of approximately $25.6 million, payments on our unsecured notes of approximately $0.2 million and payments on deferred financing costs of approximately $0.6 million, and paid preferred dividends of approximately $2.0 million.

Capital Expenditures

We intend to maintain all our hotels, including any hotel we acquire in the future, in good repair and condition, in conformity with applicable laws and regulations and, when applicable, with franchisor's standards. Routine capital improvements are determined through the annual budget process over which we maintain approval rights, and which are implemented or administered by our management company.

Historically, we have aimed to maintain overall capital expenditures, except for those required by our franchisors as a condition to a franchise license or license renewal, at 4.0% of gross revenue. For 2024, we expect total capital expenditures for the routine replacement and refurbishment of furniture, fixtures and equipment for 2024 to be approximately $7.0 million.

We expect a substantial portion of our capital expenditures for the routine replacement or refurbishment of furniture, fixtures and equipment at our properties will be funded by our replacement reserve accounts, other than costs that we incur to make capital improvements required by our franchisors. Reserve accounts are escrowed accounts with funds deposited monthly and reserved for capital improvements or expenditures with respect to all of our hotels. We deposit an amount equal to 4.0% of gross revenue for The

DeSoto, the Hotel Ballast Wilmington, Tapestry Collection by Hilton, the Hotel Alba Tampa, Tapestry Collection by Hilton, the DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Hollywood Beach, the DoubleTree by Hilton Jacksonville Riverside, the DoubleTree by Hilton Laurel, The Whitehall and the Georgian Terrace as well as 4.0% of room revenues for the DoubleTree by Hilton Philadelphia Airport and the Hyatt Centric Arlington on a monthly basis.

From time to time, certain of our hotel properties may undergo renovations as a result of our decision to upgrade portions of the hotel, such as guestrooms, meeting space and restaurants, in order to better compete with other hotels in our markets. In addition, we may be required by one or more of our franchisors to complete a PIP in order to bring the hotel up to the franchisor's standards. Generally, we expect to fund renovations and improvements out of working capital, including replacement reserve accounts, proceeds of mortgage debt or equity offerings.

During fiscal years 2024, 2025 and 2026, we expect total capital expenditures related to the renovation of our property in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania of approximately $11.5 million as condition to a renewal of our franchise license. On April 29, 2024, coincident with the extension of the mortgage loan, we placed $5.0 million into a reserve account to partially fund the renovation. In addition, provided we meet certain financial covenants, we expect the release of $1.2 million of other reserves in additional funding on or after June 30, 2025. The remainder of the capital expenditures will be funded out of working capital. As of March 31, 2024, we had incurred costs totaling approximately $0.3 million.

During fiscal years 2024, 2025 and 2026, we expect total capital expenditures related to the renovation of our property in Jacksonville, Florida of approximately $14.6 million, as a condition to a renewal of our franchise license. On July 8, 2024, in conjunction with the refinance of the mortgage with Fifth Third Bank, N.A., we secured additional funding of $9.49 million to partially fund the product improvement plan. The remainder of the capital expenditures will be funded out of working capital.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2024, we had total cash and restricted cash of approximately $39.6 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we had a net increase in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of approximately $13.4 million. We expect that our cash on hand combined with our cash flow from our hotels should be adequate to fund continuing operations, routine capital expenditures for the refurbishment and replacement of furniture, fixtures and equipment, and monthly scheduled payments of principal and interest (excluding any balloon payments due upon maturity of our mortgage debt).

On February 7, 2024, we secured a $35.0 million mortgage on the Hotel Alba located in Tampa, Florida with Cit Real Estate Funding, Inc. The loan has a maturity date of March 6, 2029; carries a fixed rate of interest of 8.49%, requires monthly payments of interest only; and cannot be prepaid until the last four months of the loan term. We used a portion of the proceeds to repay the existing first mortgage on the hotel. The remainder of the proceeds were used for working capital.

On April 29, 2024, we amended the mortgage loan agreement on the DoubleTree by Hilton Philadelphia Airport with the existing lender, TD Bank, N.A. The amendment extends the loan's maturity to April 29, 2026; requires payments of interest only at existing terms of interest at a floating rate based on SOFR plus 3.50%; and required a principal reduction of $3.0 million. Existing reserves were increased by $2.0 million and a separate reserve of $5.0 million was established for the anticipated renovation of the property in conjunction with the renewal of the franchise license.

On July 8, 2024, we secured a $26.25 million mortgage loan on the DoubleTree by Hilton Jacksonville Riverfront hotel located in Jacksonville, Florida with Fifth Third Bank, N.A. The loan provides for an additional $9.49 million available to fund a product improvement plan at the hotel; matures on July 8, 2029; requires monthly payments of interest at a floating interest rate of SOFR plus 3.00% plus principal of $38,700. Proceeds of the loan were used to repay the existing mortgage.

On August 14, 2024, we secured a $5.0 million second mortgage loan on the DeSoto hotel located in Savannah, GA with MONY Life Insurance Company. The loan has a maturity date of July 1, 2026 and requires level payments of principal and interest at a fixed interest rate of 7.50% and amortizing on a 25-year schedule. Proceeds of the loan were used for working capital.

As of the date of this report, we were current on all mortgage and other loan payments per the terms of our agreements, as amended.

In June 2025, the mortgage on The Georgian Terrace in Atlanta, Georgia matures. We intend to refinance the mortgage but may be required to reduce the level of indebtedness by an amount of up to $5.25 million based upon anticipated financial performance of the property and anticipated market conditions.

In October 2025, the mortgage on the DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Hollywood Beach matures. We intend to refinance the mortgage but may be required to reduce the level of indebtedness by an amount of up to $12.5 million based upon anticipated financial performance of the property and anticipated market conditions.

We intend to continue to invest in hotel properties as suitable opportunities arise. The success of our acquisition strategy depends, in part, on our ability to access additional capital through other sources, which we expect to be limited as a result of the economic changes in the travel industry coming out of the COVID-19 pandemic. There can be no assurance that we will continue to make investments in properties that meet our investment criteria or have access to capital during this period. Additionally, we may choose to dispose of certain hotels as a means to provide liquidity.

Over the long term, we expect to meet our liquidity requirements for hotel property acquisitions, property redevelopment, investments in new joint ventures and debt maturities, and the retirement of maturing mortgage debt, through net proceeds from additional issuances of common shares, additional issuances of preferred shares, issuances of units of limited partnership interest in our Operating Partnership, secured and unsecured borrowings, the selective disposition of non-core assets, and cash on hand. We remain committed to a flexible capital structure and strive to maintain prudent debt leverage.

Financial Covenants

Mortgage Loans

Our mortgage loan agreements contain various financial covenants directly related to the financial performance of the collateralized properties. Failure to comply with these financial covenants could result from, among other things, changes in the local competitive environment, disruption caused by renovation activity, major weather disturbances as well as general economic conditions.

As described in "Liquidity and Capital Resources", as of March 31, 2024, we were in compliance with all debt covenants, current on all loan payments and not otherwise in default under any of our mortgage loans, with the exception of a covenant default under the mortgage on the DoubleTree by Hilton Philadelphia Airport. In April 2024, we obtained a waiver of non-compliance with the financial covenants for the quarters ended September 30 and December 31, 2023. In May 2024, we obtained a waiver of non-compliance with the financial covenants for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.

As of September 30, 2024, we failed to maintain compliance with the financial covenants under the mortgage on the DoubleTree by Hilton Jacksonville Riverfront. If we are unable to receive a waiver, we may be required to reduce the outstanding balance with a prepayment of approximately $1.2 million or provide an equivalent amount of cash collateral until we establish compliance.

Certain of our loan agreements also include financial covenants that trigger a "cash trap". As of March 31, 2024, we failed to meet the financial covenants under the mortgage secured by the DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Hollywood Beach and The Georgian Terrace, which trigger a "cash trap" under the loan documents, requiring substantially all the revenue generated by the hotels to be deposited directly into a lockbox account and swept into a cash management account for the benefit of the lender until the property meets the criteria in the respective loan agreement for exiting the "cash trap". Subsequent to March 31, 2024, we met the requirements for exiting a cash trap under the mortgage secured by The Georgian Terrace.

Dividend Policy

We may not make distributions with respect to any shares of our common stock, unless and until full cumulate distributions on the outstanding preferred stock for all past unpaid periods are paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in cash is set aside.

On January 24, 2023, we announced that we will resume quarterly distributions to holders of our preferred stock and set a record date of February 28, 2023 with a payment date of March 15, 2023.

On April 24, 2023, we announced the declaration of a quarterly distribution to holders of our preferred stock with a record date of May 31, 2023 and a payment date of June 13, 2023.

On May 30, 2023, we announced the declaration of a "catch up" distribution to holders of our preferred stock with a record date of June 30, 2023 and a payment date of July 14, 2023.

On August 1, 2023, we announced the declaration of a quarterly distribution to holders of our preferred stock with a record date of August 31, 2023 and a payment date of September 15, 2023.

On October 30, 2023, we announced the declaration of a quarterly distribution to holders of our preferred stock with a record date of November 30, 2023 and a payment date of December 15, 2023.

On January 30, 2024, we announced the declaration of a quarterly distribution to holders of our preferred stock with a record date of February 29, 2024 and a payment date of March 15, 2024.

On April 30, 2024, we announced the declaration of a quarterly distribution to holders of our preferred stock with a record date of May 31, 2024 and a payment date of June 17, 2024.

On July 30, 2024, we announced the declaration of a quarterly distribution to holders of our preferred stock with a record date of August 30, 2024 and a payment date of September 16, 2024.

On October 29, 2024, we announced the declaration of a quarterly distribution to holders of our preferred stock with a record date of November 29, 2024 and a payment date of December 16, 2024.

As of March 31, 2024, the amount of cumulative unpaid dividends on our outstanding preferred shares as approximately $21.9 million. We expect that any reduction in the level of cumulative unpaid distributions will be made in the form of a series of "catch up" distributions, such as the distribution announced on May 30, 2023. The amount, timing and frequency of distributions, including additional "catch-up" distributions, will be authorized by our board of directors and based upon a variety of factors deemed relevant by the directors. No assurance can be given that the distribution policy will not change in the future.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

None.

Inflation

We generate revenues primarily from lease payments from our MHI TRS Entities and net income from the operations of our MHI TRS Entities. Therefore, we rely primarily on the performance of the individual properties and the ability of the management company to increase revenues and to keep pace with inflation. Operators of hotels, in general, possess the ability to adjust room rates daily to keep pace with inflation. However, competitive pressures at some or all of our hotels may limit the ability of the management company to raise room rates.

Our expenses, including hotel operating expenses, administrative expenses, real estate taxes and property and casualty insurance are subject to inflation. These expenses are expected to grow with the general rate of inflation, except for energy, liability insurance, property and casualty insurance, property tax rates, employee benefits, and some wages, which are expected to increase at rates that differ from the general rate of inflation.

Geographic Concentration and Seasonality

Our hotels are located in Florida, Georgia, Maryland, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Texas and Virginia. As a result, we are particularly susceptible to adverse market conditions in these geographic areas, including industry downturns, relocation of businesses, local stay-at-home and business closure orders, adverse weather conditions ,and any oversupply of hotel rooms or a reduction in lodging demand. Adverse economic developments in the markets in which we have a concentration of hotels, or in any of the other markets in which we operate, or any increase in hotel supply or decrease in lodging demand resulting from the local, regional or national business climate, could materially and adversely affect us.

The operations of our hotel properties have historically been seasonal. The months of April and May are traditionally strong, as is October. The periods from mid-November through mid-February are traditionally slow with the exception of hotels located in certain markets, namely Florida and Texas, which typically experience significant room demand during this period.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. It is possible that the actual amounts may differ significantly from these estimates and assumptions. We evaluate our estimates, assumptions and judgment on an ongoing basis, based on information that is available to us, our business and industry experience, and various other matters that we believe are reasonable and appropriate for consideration under the circumstances. All of our significant accounting policies, including certain critical accounting policies, are disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. There have been no material changes in these critical accounting policies or the methods or assumptions we apply.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The effects of potential changes in interest rates are discussed below. Our market risk discussion includes "forward-looking statements" and represents an estimate of possible changes in fair value or future earnings that could occur assuming hypothetical future movements in interest rates. These disclosures are not precise indicators of expected future losses, but only indicators of reasonably possible losses. As a result, actual future results may differ materially from those presented. The analysis below presents the sensitivity of the market value of our financial instruments to selected changes in market interest rates.

To meet in part our long-term liquidity requirements, we will borrow funds at a combination of fixed and variable rates. Our interest rate risk management objective is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. From time to time we may enter into interest rate hedge contracts such as collars and treasury lock agreements in order to mitigate our interest rate risk with respect to various debt instruments. We do not intend to hold or issue derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes.

As of March 31, 2024, we had approximately $275.2 million of fixed-rate debt, including the PPP Loans of approximately $1.3 million, with a fixed rate of 1.0% and approximately $53.0 million of variable-rate debt. The weighted-average interest rate on the fixed-rate debt was 4.9%. A change in market interest rates on the fixed portion of our debt would impact the fair value of the debt but have no impact on interest incurred or cash flows. Our variable-rate debt is exposed to changes in interest rates, specifically the changes in the Prime Rate. Assuming that the aggregate amount outstanding on the mortgages on our Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and Houston, Texas hotels remains at approximately $53.0 million, the balance at March 31, 2024, the impact on our annual interest incurred and cash flows of a one percent increase in SOFR and the Prime Rate, would be approximately $0.4 million.

As of December 31, 2023, we had approximately $266.0 million of fixed-rate debt, including the mortgage on our Hotel Alba Tampa, Tapestry Collection by Hilton, which is fixed by an interest rate swap to 5.576% and the PPP Loans of $1.5 million, with a fixed rate of 1.0% and approximately $52.9 million of variable-rate debt. The weighted-average interest rate on the fixed-rate debt was 4.87%. A change in market interest rates on the fixed portion of our debt would impact the fair value of the debt but have no impact on interest incurred or cash flows. Our variable-rate debt is exposed to changes in interest rates, specifically the changes in 1-month LIBOR, SOFR, and in Prime Rate. Assuming that the aggregate amounts outstanding on the mortgage on The Whitehall remains at approximately $14.0 million and the mortgage on the DoubleTree by Hilton Philadelphia Airport remains at approximately $38.9 million, the balance at December 31, 2023, the impact on our annual interest incurred and cash flows of a one percent increase in 1-month SOFR and in Prime Rate, would be approximately $0.4 million.

Item 4. Controlsand Procedures

Sotherly Hotels Inc.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company's management, under the supervision and participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as required by paragraph (b) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act), as of March 31, 2024. Based on that evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of March 31, 2024, its disclosure controls and procedures were effective and designed to ensure that (i) information required to be disclosed in its reports

filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and instructions, and (ii) information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

The Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures or its internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of the controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within Sotherly Hotels Inc. have been detected.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in Sotherly Hotels Inc.'s internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act during Sotherly Hotels Inc.'s last fiscal quarter that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, Sotherly Hotels Inc.'s internal control over financial reporting.
