The company is executing a clear deleveraging strategy by selling non-core hotel assets and refinancing debt. The 2026 guidance suggests continued improvement, but traders should monitor the execution of additional hotel dispositions and the impact of the new debt on interest expense. The low dividend yield (2.2%) and negative CAD suggest capital is being prioritized for debt reduction over shareholder returns.
