Ryman Hospitality Properties, Inc. (NYSE:RHP), a lodging real estate investment trust ("REIT") specializing in group-oriented, destination hotel assets in urban and resort markets, today announced it is postponing its Investor Day due to inclement Nashville winter weather causing hazardous travel conditions. The Company's Investor Day will now be held on January 30th, 2024, at the Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center in Nashville, Tennessee and will be webcast live as described below.

 

The postponement is not related to any change in the Company's operations or financial results. The Company also today provided the following preliminary financial results for the three months and twelve months ended December 31, 2023.

Mark Fioravanti, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company said, "We regret to inform you that the scheduled Investor Day has been postponed to January 30th, 2024. The safety of our attendees and employees is our top priority, and heavy snow and inclement weather conditions in Nashville have made it unsafe to proceed with the event as previously planned."

Regarding the Company's preliminary 2023 financial results, Fioravanti continued, "While we anticipated a strong end to 2023, the results seen throughout our businesses exceeded our expectations, with net income expected to be between $336 million and $348 million, and expected consolidated Adjusted EBITDAre of approximately $691 million, both representing annual records. Our Hospitality segment and Entertainment segment each set full-year operating income and Adjusted EBITDAre records."
