Asset Management Report

For the Year Ended December 31, 2015

Japan Hotel REIT Investment Corporation

Dear Investors,
Thank you for your support and patronage to Japan Hotel REIT Investment Corporation (JHR) and
its asset management company, Japan Hotel REIT Advisors Co., Ltd.
Having settled the accounts for the 16th fiscal period (from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2015)
of JHR, we are pleased to present you with the asset management status and settlement of accounts
for the period.
Pursuant to the mission recognized by JHR of providing investors with attractive opportunities to
invest in hotel assets, asset management is conducted by placing simultaneous pursuit of stability
and upside potential at the core of our strategy.
In the fiscal period under review, with capital increases through public offering of new investment
units carried out in January and June and other fund procurement, JHR acquired seven hotels located
mainly in central Tokyo and the bay area. Furthermore, JHR acquired hotels bearing world-class
international brand names Okinawa Marriott Resort & Spa and ACTIVE-INTER CITY
HIROSHIMA (Sheraton Hiroshima Hotel) by public offering mentioned above and other fund
procurement. In total, assets with a combined acquisition price of 57.0 billion were acquired in the
period. These are hotel assets that exactly match JHRs investment strategy of pursuing upside in
revenue while improving portfolio stability.
An asset management strategy of aiming for maximization of revenue and asset value of individual
hotels is planned and executed for JHRs portfolio properties. Reflecting the momentum gathering
for leisure demand from within and outside Japan, the operating performance of the rooms
department improved in the fiscal period under review at many of the hotels in JHRs portfolio. As a
result, the variable rent, etc. received by JHR increased, leading to operating revenue exceeding the
previous forecast.
Moreover, in addition to posting a gain on sale of real estate properties, lowering of funding costs
and other cost reduction efforts were made. As a result, for the fiscal period under review, JHR
posted operating revenue of 17,343 million, ordinary income of 9,295 million and net income of
9,294 million and declared dividend per unit of 2,975 (up 38.1% from the previous fiscal period).
Entering the 17th fiscal period (from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2016), too, new investment
units were issued at the beginning of the year, followed by the acquisition of CANDEO HOTELS
UENO-KOEN located in the Tokyo metropolitan area for 6,705 million. As a result, JHRs
portfolio grew to a portfolio size of 232,428 million in terms of combined acquisition price.
With sharp increase in the number of inbound tourists visiting Japan and steady increase in domestic
leisure demand, there are great hopes for the future growth of Japans tourism industry and also
growing interest in hotel assets as investment targets.
We at JHR and Japan Hotel REIT Advisors are resolved to make our best endeavors for JHRs
further growth in order to provide investors with attractive opportunities to invest in hotel assets by
taking advantage of the high expertise and know-how we have fostered and accumulated to date.
We ask for your continued support and understanding of our operations.

Following the resolution to partly amend the Articles of Incorporation of Japan Hotel REIT Investment Corporation
(hereinafter referred to as JHR) at the 5th General Meeting of Unitholders held on February 24, 2012, JHR changed
its fiscal period from six-month periods that end on March 31 and September 30 each year to 12-month periods that
end on December 31 (aligned with the calendar year). As a result of the change, and to facilitate the transition, JHRs
13th business period was the nine months from April 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012.
Operating revenue does not include consumption taxes.
Revenue from the real estate leasing business was presented as Real estate rental income in past periods. However,
because of the introduction of management contracts in the 13th fiscal period, this presentation of the real estate leasing
business is no longer appropriate. Therefore, the presentation of revenue from this business was changed to Real
estate operating revenue for all fiscal periods including the 12th and earlier fiscal periods. The presentation of
expenses for the real estate leasing business was changed from Real estate rental expenses to Real estate operating
costs.
Net income for the 13th fiscal period includes a gain on negative goodwill (18,578 million) from a merger, loss on
sale of real estate properties (1,393 million) and impairment loss (958 million). Net income for the 14th fiscal period
includes loss on sale of real estate properties (1,189 million) and impairment loss (516 million). Net income for the
16th fiscal period includes gain on sale of real estate properties (305 million).
JHR carried out a 12-for-1 split of units with an effective date of April 1, 2012. Net assets per unit, net income per unit,
FFO per unit and FFO multiple are calculated as if the unit split had been completed at the start of the 12th fiscal
period.
Ratio of ordinary income to total assets = Ordinary income / ((Total assets at beginning of period + Total assets at end
of period) / 2) 100
Return on unitholders equity = Net income / ((Net assets at beginning of period + Net assets at end of period) / 2)
100
Ratio of net assets to total assets = Net assets at end of period / Total assets at end of period 100
The payout ratio is calculated using the formula Dividend per unit / Net income per unit x 100 for the 12th fiscal
period, and the formula Total dividends (excess of earnings exclusive) / Net income x 100 from the 13th through
16th fiscal periods.
NOI = Real estate operating revenue Real estate operating costs + Depreciation + Loss on retirement of noncurrent
assets

(Note 11) FFO per unit = (Net income + Depreciation + Loss on retirement of noncurrent assets Loss or gain on sale of real
estate properties Extraordinary loss or income) / Number of investment units issued and outstanding
(Note 12) For the 13th fiscal period, FFO per unit, FFO multiple and debt service coverage ratio are calculated excluding gain on
negative goodwill of 18,578 million, loss on sale of real estate properties of 1,393 million and impairment loss of
958 million. For the 14th fiscal period, FFO per unit, FFO multiple and debt service coverage ratio are calculated
excluding loss on sale of real estate properties of 1,189 million and impairment loss of 516 million. For the 16th
fiscal period, FFO per unit, FFO multiple and debt service coverage ratio are calculated excluding gain on sale of real
estate properties of 305 million.
(Note 13) FFO multiple = Investment unit price at end of period / Annualized FFO per unit
(Note 14) Debt service coverage ratio = (Net Income before income taxes + Depreciation + Loss on retirement of noncurrent
assets Loss or gain on sale of real estate properties Extraordinary losses or income + Amortization of investment
corporation bond issuance costs + Amortization of investment unit issuance expenses + Loss on derivative instruments
+ Interest expense +Interest expense on investment corporation bonds) / (Interest expense + Interest expense on
investment corporation bonds + Total of contracted principal repayments (excluding lump-sum principal repayments))
(Note 15) Ratio of interest-bearing debt to total assets = Interest-bearing debt at end of period / Total assets at end of period 100
(Note 16)

Number of tenants indicates the total number of tenants based on the lease contracts for respective real estate properties
in trust (excluding tenants of parking lots, etc.) as of the end of each fiscal period. However, for properties with
pass-through master lease contracts in which JHR receives the same amount of rents, etc. from rents, etc. from end
tenants as is in principle, the total number of the end tenants (excluding tenants of parking lots, etc.) is indicated.

(Note 17)

Occupancy rate indicates the percentage of leased area to leasable area of respective real estate properties in trust as of
the end of each fiscal period.

2. Asset management operation for the fiscal period under review


(1) Brief history and principal activities
Japan Hotel REIT Investment Corporation (hereinafter referred to as JHR) was established under the Act on
Investment Trusts and Investment Corporations (Act No. 198 of 1951, as amended; hereinafter referred to as
the Investment Trusts Act) on November 10, 2005 and was listed on the Real Estate Investment Trust
(REIT) section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange (Securities code: 8985) on June 14, 2006.
5

JHR entrusts the asset management to Japan Hotel REIT Advisors Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as the
Asset Management Company). Focusing on hotels, which are important components of the social
infrastructure and profitability, JHR primarily invests in real estate related assets that are in themselves real
estate which are wholly or partially used as hotels or real estate equivalents of such real estate or that are
backed by such real estate or real estate equivalents.
JHR, the former Nippon Hotel Fund Investment Corporation, merged with the former Japan Hotel and Resort,
Inc. (hereinafter referred to as the former JHR) with an effective date of April 1, 2012 (hereinafter referred
to as the merger) and changed its name to Japan Hotel REIT Investment Corporation. Over approximately a
little less than four years since the merger through the end of the 16th fiscal period, JHR has carried out five
public offerings for capital increase and continuously acquired hotels that are competitive enough to attract
domestic and inbound leisure demand and located in its strategic investment target areas.
As such, JHR has expanded the asset size by steadily implementing the growth strategy, having its portfolio
grow to 36 properties with a combined acquisition price of 225,723 million as of the end of the fiscal period
under review.
The number of JHRs investment units issued and outstanding was 3,144,227 as of December 31, 2015.
(2) Investment performance
During the fiscal period under review, the Japanese economy continued to show a modest recovery trend,
despite weakness seen in some areas, partly due to the effect of the various measures implemented by the Abe
administration to securely end deflation and achieve both economic revitalization and fiscal soundness. Under
such circumstances, the tourism market was in an environment in which, on top of the leisure demand among
the Japanese people remaining solid, the number of overseas (inbound) tourists visiting Japan, primarily from
Asian countries, continued to increase thanks to the governments various measures aimed at making Japan a
major tourism nation as well as the depreciation of the yen and other factors. The number of such inbound
tourists, which had surpassed 10 million for the first time in 2013, reached 13.4 million, up around 30% over
the figure, in 2014 and increased by 47.1% year-on-year to 19.7 million in 2015, coming close to 20 million
annually that the Japanese government targeted at initially.
Given such a strong wind behind Japans tourism industry and hotel industry, many of the hotels owned by
JHR achieved a rise in operating performance, mainly in the rooms department, allowing us to feel again how
strong the leisure demand was both in and outside Japan. Also in the investment market for hotels,
transactions of hotel properties remained brisk with an increase in the number of investors who anticipated
future growth of such properties, keeping the market size expanding. In such an environment, JHR issued new
investment units through two public offerings in January and June 2015 together with other fund procurement
and acquired eight properties in total with a combined acquisition price of 39,705 million. Moreover, in
December 2015, JHR acquired ACTIVE-INTER CITY HIROSHIMA (Sheraton Hiroshima Hotel), located a
one-minute walk from Shinkansen Exit of JR Hiroshima Station, for an acquisition price of 17,320 million
through new borrowing (9,000 million) and cash on hand. On the other hand, as part of its growth strategy
and with an intention to further enhance the quality of its portfolio through reshuffling of assets, JHR sold
three properties in October 2015 at prices surpassing the book values and appraisal values for a combined sale
price of 4,890 million, achieving a further enhancement of the quality of the portfolio.
Furthermore, in January 2016, JHR implemented capital increase through public offering, the sixth one since
the merger, to complement a decrease in cash on hand, which is a decrease equivalent to the cash on hand
used to fund the acquisition of ACTIVE-INTER CITY HIROSHIMA (Sheraton Hiroshima Hotel). JHR also
used the proceeds from the public offering to newly acquire CANDEO HOTELS UENO-KOEN, located in
the Ueno area in central Tokyo which benefits from an increase in inbound tourism demand, for an acquisition
price of 6,705 million. The acquisition has increased the portfolio size to 232,428 million on an acquisition
price basis.
Moreover, steadily implementing its growth strategy, JHR concluded a purchase and sale agreement as of
February 18, 2016 regarding the acquisition of Hotel Centraza Hakata for a planned acquisition price of
7,197 million.
For its owned hotels, JHR endeavored to expand its earnings by continuously discussing with the hotel
operators for increasing revenue, after assessing the business environment and operation conditions at each
hotel on a monthly basis. For hotels with variable rent contracts including upside sharing schemes and
6

management contracts, hotel earnings increased against the backdrop of strong domestic and overseas leisure
demand, which achieved an increase in JHRs rent revenue. Among fixed rent properties held, JHR rebranded
Dormy Inn Suidobashi, for which the lease contract expired at the end of June 2015, to the b suidobashi and
changed its rent scheme, which had been fixed rent alone, to the one comprising fixed rent as minimum
guaranteed rent plus variable rent.
With respect to capital investments in portfolio properties, JHR invested in the renewal of its facilities in order
to maintain the value of its assets and carried out strategic refurbishment to increase profits at hotels with
variable rent contracts, etc.
In terms of operations of the five hotels (hereinafter referred to as the five HMJ hotels) which JHR leases
(Note 1) to Hotel Management Japan Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as HMJ) under variable rent
contracts, they have produced a year-on-year increase both in sales and GOP (gross operating profit), led by
the rooms department, during the fiscal period under review. The rooms department achieved an increase in
not only the guest room occupancy rate but also the ADR (average daily rate), allowing us to feel how strong
the leisure demand was. For further details regarding sales, GOP and other management indicators for the five
HMJ hotels, please refer to <Reference 1> Major indicators of the hotel business for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2015 and <Reference 2><1> Sales and GOP of HMJ group hotels in 7. Reference
information. Furthermore, as announced in the Notice Concerning Revision of Fixed-Term Lease Agreement
dated December 18, 2015, JHR negotiated with HMJ to modify the terms and conditions of the fixed-term
lease agreement with HMJ, as JHR believed that HMJs profitability would increase in accordance with a
shift to independent hotel operations by HMJ. As a result, JHR and HMJ agreed that the variable rent ratio be
changed from 81.5% to 85.0% effective January 1, 2016 while JHR shall return part of the security deposits to
HMJ. This has made it possible for JHR to obtain the enhanced performance of the hotels as its earnings.
Moreover, inbound guests and domestic leisure demand were successfully attracted by the 6 hotels (Note 2)
for which AAPC Japan K.K. (hereinafter referred to as Accor), a Japanese subsidiary of Accor Hotels
headquartered in Paris, France, serves as the operator (hereinafter referred to as the six Accor hotels). These
hotels posted a year-on-year increase both in sales and GOP, mainly led by an increase in the ADR. For
further details regarding sales, GOP and other management indicators for the six Accor hotels, please refer to
<Reference 1> Major indicators of the hotel business for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 and
<Reference 2><2> Sales and GOP of the six Accor hotels in 7. Reference information.
Furthermore, efforts were made to attract inbound tourists at the six the b hotels (Note 3), which are leased
to the subsidiaries of the Ishin Hotels Group with a variable rent scheme, and consequently a year-on-year
increase was achieved both in sales and GOP. For further details regarding sales, GOP and other management
indicators for the six the b hotels, please refer to <Reference 1> Major indicators of the hotel business for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 and <Reference 2><3> Sales and GOP of the six the b hotels
in 7. Reference information.
As for further details regarding sales, GOP and other management indicators for Okinawa Marriott Resort &
Spa and ACTIVE-INTER CITY HIROSHIMA (Sheraton Hiroshima Hotel) that JHR acquired in the fiscal
period under review, please refer to <Reference 1> Major indicators of the hotel business for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2015 and <Reference 2><1> Sales and GOP of HMJ group hotels in 7. Reference
information.
In addition, JHR not only increased the size of its asset portfolio by acquiring new properties, but also made
steady progress in reducing real estate management costs, general and administrative expenses, and
borrowing costs.
(Note 1) The five HMJ hotels represent the five hotels, namely, Kobe Meriken Park Oriental Hotel, Oriental Hotel tokyo bay,
Namba Oriental Hotel, Hotel Nikko Alivila and Oriental Hotel Hiroshima. The HMJ group hotels represent the seven
hotels comprising the five HMJ hotels plus Okinawa Marriott Resort & Spa and Sheraton Hiroshima Hotel, which is
the major facility of ACTIVE-INTER CITY HIROSHIMA.
(Note 2) Represents the six hotels, namely, ibis Tokyo Shinjuku, ibis Styles Kyoto Station, ibis Styles Sapporo, Mercure
Sapporo, Mercure Okinawa Naha and Mercure Yokosuka.
(Note 3) Represents the six hotels, namely, the five hotels comprising the b akasaka-mitsuke, the b ikebukuro, the b
ochanomizu, the b hachioji and the b hakata (hereinafter referred to as the five the b hotels) plus the b suidobashi,
which was rebranded from the former Dormy Inn Suidobashi on July 1, 2015.

(3) Funding

JHR acquired the five the b hotels by using the 15,651 million in total obtained by issuing new investment
units through public offering in January 2015 and third-party allotment in February 2015, as well as the
1,000 million in short-term loans and 12,900 million in long-term loans borrowed in January 2015. JHR
also used these funds to make early repayment of 4,779 million in existing long-term loans. In March 2015,
JHR procured 1,500 million in long-term loans to partly fund the acquisition of Hotel Francs. Moreover,
JHR acquired Mercure Yokosuka by using cash on hand in April 2015. The reduced cash balance was
compensated by public offering in June 2015 and third-party allotment in July 2015
JHR also acquired Okinawa Marriott Resort & Spa by using the 10,793 million in total obtained by issuing
new investment units through public offering in June 2015 and third-party allotment in July 2015, as well as
the 5,000 million in short-term loans and 1,500 million in long-term loans borrowed in July 2015. In
September 2015, JHR borrowed 6,608 million in long-term loans to fund refinancing and early repayment of
the borrowings that matured on the same month and November 2015.
In October 2015, JHR issued investment corporation bonds for retail investors, the first such issuance for JHR,
totaling 6,000 million to make early repayment of 6,000 million in existing loans. JHR also made early
repayment of 4,000 million in long-term loans by using funds obtained from sale of the three properties
comprising Daiwa Roynet Hotel Akita, Hotel Sunroute Niigata and Comfort Hotel Shin-Yamaguchi.
Moreover, in December 2015, JHR procured 9,000 million in short-term loans to partly fund the acquisition
of ACTIVE-INTER CITY HIROSHIMA (Sheraton Hiroshima Hotel).
As a result of the above, as of the end of the fiscal period under review, interest-bearing debt totaled 102,772
million, including short-term loans payable of 9,000 million, current portion of long-term loans payable of
11,393 million, long-term loans payable of 70,379 million, current portion of investment corporation bonds
of 2,500 million and investment corporation bonds of 9,500 million, and the ratio of interest-bearing debt to
total assets at end of period stood at 42.8%.
Through a series of these funding measures, JHR was able to lower its funding costs and diversify its
repayment period.
Furthermore, JHR concluded interest rate swap contracts to fix the interest on 16,716 million in total on
loans on January 30, March 27, July 10 and September 17, 2015 in order to suppress the increase in interest
payment resulting from future interest rate rises. These actions brought the fixed rate ratio (including the
interest rate cap purchase portion) on JHRs total interest-bearing debt to approximately 85%.
As of December 31, 2015, JHRs issuer ratings were as follows.
As of October 29, 2015, Rating and Investment Information, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as R&I) changed
the outlook of JHRs issuer rating from stable to positive. Moreover, as of November 26, 2015, Japan
Credit Rating Agency, Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as JCR) also changed its outlook of JHRs long-term
issuer rating from stable to positive.

(4) Financial results


As a result of the abovementioned asset management, operating revenue, operating income and ordinary
income were 17,343 million, 10,988 million and 9,295 million, respectively, for the fiscal period under
review (12-month period from January 1 to December 31, 2015). Net income was 9,294 million.
With regard to dividends, it was decided that 9,356 million, which was calculated by adding a reversal of
reserve for dividends (appropriation for dividends) of 60 million to unappropriated retained earnings of
9,296 million, would all be distributed except for fractions of less than one yen of dividend per unit.
Consequently, the dividend per unit came to 2,975.
Appropriation for dividends for the fiscal period under review is for the purpose of offsetting the financial

policy stipulated in Article 34, paragraph 1 of JHRs Articles of Incorporation to exceed 90% of JHRs
distributable profit that is defined by Article 67-15 of the Act on Special Measures Concerning Taxation. And
9,356 million, which was calculated by adding a reversal of reserve for dividends (appropriation for dividends)
of 60 million to unappropriated retained earnings of 9,296 million as of end of the period under the review,
would all be distributed except for fractions of less than one yen of dividend per unit. Consequently, the dividend
per unit came to 2,975.

5. Investment policies and issues to be addressed


General investment outlook
In 2016, the Japanese economy is anticipated to show a recovery bolstered by strong private sector demand, with
the employment and income environments continuing to improve and the virtuous cycle of the economy making
further progress as well as the terms of trade improving moderately, partly due to the positive effect of the
Urgent Policies to Realize a Society in Which All Citizens are Dynamically Engaged implemented by the
government on November 26, 2015 and other measures. Attention must be paid, however, to the downside swing
of the emerging economies including China, market price trends of crude oil and other commodities and
geopolitical risks, among other factors, amid the U.S. monetary policy being increasingly normalized. Moreover,
in the environment surrounding the tourism industry, it is expected that JHR will benefit from a further increase
in the number of domestic tourists and inbound tourists thanks to an increase in individual income through the
economic growth in the Asian areas, visa waiver and relaxing visa issuance requirements, enhanced
infrastructures including expansion in the arrival and departure slot of international flights, among other factors,
on top of the leisure demand among the Japanese people remaining solid.
Under such circumstances, JHR intends to invest based on the approach described below in order to make
investing in JHR more appealing based on its balanced mix of stability centered on fixed rent revenue and
upside potential derived from variable rent and other revenue sources.
Internal growth
JHR will work to boost sales and GOP of hotels operated under variable rent contracts, which are the seven
hotels of the HMJ group hotels that comprise the five HMJ hotels plus Okinawa Marriott Resort & Spa (newly
acquired in July 2015) and ACTIVE-INTER CITY HIROSHIMA (Sheraton Hiroshima Hotel) (newly acquired
in December 2015), and the six the b hotels that comprise the five the b hotels plus the b suidobashi, which
was rebranded from Dormy Inn Suidobashi on July 1, 2015, as well as of the six Accor hotels that are mainly
operated under a management contract scheme, with an aim to maximize variable rent and earnings under
management contracts. To achieve this goal, JHR will request each hotel, its operations support company and its
operator to implement marketing initiatives to attract wider range of demand and measures to maintain and
increase room rates. JHR will also work with related parties to move the business focus from competition based
on price to competition based on value, aiming to create facilities and services that become prominent in the
market.
For hotels with only fixed rent contracts, JHR will increase its efforts to monitor operating conditions and, by
paying careful attention to each tenants ability to bear the rent costs, conduct negotiations with the hotels at
which the ability to bear rent costs has been enhanced through better performances so that the improvement in
hotel earnings would lead to an increase in JHRs earnings, such as revising rents upward and introducing upside
sharing schemes.
In addition, JHR will carry out an ongoing program of facility maintenance and improvement to ensure each
hotel becomes prominent in the market and to maintain and increase the value of its assets.
External growth
In terms of external growth strategy, JHR will keep focus on investing in hotels with prospects for attracting
domestic and overseas leisure demand over the medium to long term, that is, highly competitive hotels located in
appealing or fashionable areas, as it has done to date. Limited-service hotels, full-service hotels and resort hotels
are all investment targets, but JHR will only acquire properties with competitive advantages in terms of
buildings and facilities (infrastructure) and the capabilities of the hotel tenant and operator (services).
However, competition over acquisition has become fierce in the investment market for hotels in accordance with
an increase in the number of investors, with transaction yields showing a downward trend. Under such
circumstances, JHR will work to acquire properties and make them prominent in the market, by taking
advantage of its strength as a REIT specializing in hotel properties of being able to extensively collect
transaction information of real estate related assets, etc. that are used as hotels and make selective approaches.
Specifically, JHR will utilize its pipelines as a major player in the investment market for hotels, ability to collect
information on operations of hotels in general, proposal and implementation of a variety of rent schemes
including the management contract scheme, and excellent networks with major hotel operators. By doing so,
JHR will acquire properties while maintaining its superiority in the investment market for hotels.

11

Following such policy, in the fiscal period ended December 2015, JHR acquired seven properties (the five the b
hotels, Hotel Francs and Mercure Yokosuka) located mainly in Tokyo and the bay area that are deemed to enjoy
the largest benefits from an increase in inbound tourists. JHR also acquired a large resort hotel with the name of
Marriot, a worlds top international brand, in the Okinawa area, which is expected to show the highest growth
among JHRs strategic investment target areas. Moreover, JHR acquired a multi-use facility centering on a
relatively new, full-service hotel carrying the name of Sheraton, another well-known international brand,
featuring a good location with a one-minute walk from JR Hiroshima Station. Of these properties, a lease
scheme that combines fixed rents and variable rents has been employed by the seven properties excluding Hotel
Francs that is with fixed rent contract only and Mercure Yokosuka that is with variable rent contract only, in
order to pursue upside potential while working to secure stability. Going forward, JHR will continuously acquire
properties by taking advantage of these strengths that are peculiar to a REIT specialized in hotels, including the
ability to incorporate a variety of rent schemes, hotel renovations and rebranding arrangements.
Finance strategy
JHR seeks to maintain and enhance the relationships of trust with financial institutions with which it does
business, while working to ensure financial stability and strength by increasingly diversifying the means of
financing. It aims to conduct financial operations by keeping the ratio of interest-bearing debt to total assets at
no larger than 50% for the time being. In addition, when seeking new borrowings for property acquisitions or
refinancing existing debt, JHR will work to reinforce its existing relationships with multiple banks while seeking
to spread out the maturity dates of its debt and considering the balance with borrowing costs.
Moreover, JHR will investigate extending the maturity dates and managing interest rate risks while discerning
the conditions of the market for interest rate.

JAPAN HOTEL REIT INVESTMENT CORPORATION


Notes to Financial Statements
For the years ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014
1. Organization
Japan Hotel REIT Investment Corporation (JHR), formerly known as Nippon Hotel Fund Investment
Corporation (the former NHF), was established under the Act on Investment Trusts and Investment Corporations
(the Investment Trust Act) on November 10, 2005 and was listed on the Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT)
Section on the Tokyo Stock Exchange (Securities code: 8985) on June 14, 2006.
Focusing on importance as social infrastructure and profitability of hotels, JHR primarily invests in real estate
assets that are wholly or partially used as hotels and real estate-related assets that are in themselves real estate
equivalents pertaining to such real estate assets or that are backed by such real estate or real estate equivalents.
In the fiscal period ended December 31, 2012, the former NHF, as the surviving entity, merged with Japan Hotel
and Resort, Inc. (the former JHR), as the dissolved entity, with an effective date of April 1, 2012 (the merger).
In conjunction with the merger, the former NHF changed its name to Japan Hotel REIT Investment Corporation,
marking a new start as the only REIT specializing in hotel properties in Japan when merged.
Through the merger, nine properties held by the former JHR were succeeded by JHR. As a result, as of the
effective date of the merger, JHRs property portfolio expanded to 28 properties. As of December 31, 2015, JHR
has ownership interests in 36 properties.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


a. Basis of presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions set forth in the
Financial Instruments and Exchange Law and their related accounting regulations, and in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in Japan (Japanese GAAP), which are different in certain respects as to
the application and disclosure requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards.
The accompanying financial statements have been reformatted and translated into English (with certain
reclassifications and expanded descriptions) from the financial statements of JHR prepared in accordance with
Japanese GAAP and filed with the appropriate Local Finance Bureau of the Ministry of Finance as required by the
Financial Instruments and Exchange Law. Certain supplementary information included in the statutory Japanese
language financial statements, but not required for fair presentation, is not presented in the accompanying financial
statements. JHR has not prepared consolidated financial statements, as JHR has no consolidating subsidiaries or
entities.
b. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents in the statements of cash flows consist of cash on hand, cash in trust accounts,
bank deposit and trust deposit, which can be withdrawn at any time, and short-term investments with a
maturity of three months or less when purchased, which can easily be converted to cash and subject to
minimal risk of change in value.
c. Securities
Investment securities without market value held as available-for-sale are stated at cost being determined by the
moving average method. Equity interest in silent partnership is stated at its net asset value corresponding to the
equity interest in the silent partnership.
d. Property and equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation of property and equipment is calculated using the
straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. The useful lives of major property and equipment
components are as follows:
Machinery and equipment
Tools, furniture and fixtures
Buildings in trust
Structures in trust

2 to 17 years
2 to 20 years
2 to 62 years
2 to 62 years
54

Machinery and equipment in trust


Tools, furniture and equipment in trust

4 to 32 years
2 to 27 years

e. Intangible assets
Intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method. The amortization period of major intangible assets
is as follows.
Software (internal use)

5 years as internally usable years

f. Long-term prepaid expenses


Long-term prepaid expenses are amortized using the straight-line method.
g. Investment unit issuance costs
Investment unit issuance costs are amortized using the straight-line method over three years.
The issuance of new investment units through public offerings on January 27, 2015 and June 22, 2015 was
consummated under underwriting agreements in which underwriting securities companies committed to purchase
all of the investment units being offered at an issue value and selling them at an offering price different from such
issue value to general investors (the spread method).
No underwriting fees were paid by JHR under the spread method since the underwriters were compensated by the
underwriting spread, which amounted to 858,900 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2015 and 345,440
thousand for the year ended December 31, 2014, representing the difference between the issue price and the issue
value of all new investment units issued.
h. Investment corporation bond issuance costs
Investment corporation bond issuance costs are amortized using the interest method over the respective term of the
bond.
i. Income taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized in the financial statements with respect to the differences between
the financial reporting and tax bases of the assets and liabilities, and were measured using the enacted tax rates and
laws which will be in effect in the years when the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
j. Taxes on property and equipment
Taxes imposed on properties such as property taxes, city planning taxes, and depreciable asset taxes are allocated
to the respective reporting period and expensed as Real estate operating costs. Cash paid for property taxes and
city planning taxes to the transferor of real properties at acquisition is not recorded as Real estate operating costs
but capitalized as part of the acquisition cost of the relevant property. The amount of such taxes capitalized in the
acquisition cost of real properties was 180,668 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2015 and 36,674
thousand for the year ended December 31, 2014.
k. Derivatives and hedging activities
JHR enters into certain derivative transactions in accordance with its financial policy in order to manage risks,
which is provided in the Articles of Incorporation, mainly arising from adverse fluctuations in interest rates on
loans payable. Derivative financial instruments are carried at fair value with changes in the unrealized gain or loss
charged or credited to operations, except for those which meet the criteria for hedge accounting in which the
unrealized gain or loss is deferred as a component of net assets.
JHR evaluates hedge effectiveness by comparing the cumulative changes in cash flow of hedging instruments and
the hedged items and assessing the ratio between the changes.
l. Accounting treatment of beneficiary interests in trust assets including real estate
For trust beneficiary interests in real estate, all assets and liabilities held in trust accounts as well as all income
generated and expenses incurred from assets in trust are presented separately in the accompanying balance sheet
and income statement accounts.
m. Consumption taxes
Consumption taxes are excluded from the transaction amounts. However, non-deductible consumption taxes on
property and equipment are included in the acquisition cost of the respective assets.

n. Rounding of amounts presented in the financial statements


The amounts are rounded down to the nearest thousands or millions in the accompanying financial statements.

4. Financial Instruments
a. Status of financial instruments
(1) Policy for financial instruments
JHR is an investment corporation set forth in Article 2, paragraph 12 of the Investment Trust Act, managing
investments mainly in specified assets as prescribed in the Investment Trust Act. As a policy, JHR procures
funds through issuance of investment units, etc. and loans from financial institutions in order to make
investments in specified assets. JHR does not utilize surplus funds to invest in financial instruments except for
short-term deposits and other equivalent short-term financial instruments. JHR may enter into derivative
transactions in order to hedge against interest rate risk, but not for speculative trading purposes.
(2) Details of financial instruments, their risks, and risk management system
Investment securities, which represent an investment in a silent partnership, are exposed to credit risks of the
issuer and risks of fluctuation of real estate property value, etc. JHR manages these risks by periodically
measuring the actual market values of such properties and the financial conditions of the issuer.
The floating rate loans payable are exposed to risks of interest rate fluctuations. In order to mitigate interest
rate risk, JHR may enter into derivative transactions, if necessary.
Derivative transactions are conducted principally in accordance with rules prescribed by JHR and risk
management rules applied by the asset management company. Derivative transactions are arranged by the
finance section of the asset management company by using financial institutions with high credit ratings
through approval and resolution by authorized personnel and a meeting committee structure set forth in its
decision-making standards and resolution of JHRs board of directors.
Loans payable are exposed to liquidity risks. The finance department of the asset management company
prepares and updates projections and actual cash flows on a monthly basis to manage liquidity risks and
monitor compliance with restrictive covenants set forth in the loan agreements. JHR manages liquidity risks by
managing the ratio of short-term and long-term loans payable considering the current financial environment
through approval and resolution by authorized personnel and meeting committee structure in the asset
management company and resolution of JHRs board of directors.
b. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Carrying amounts of financial instruments on the balance sheets, their fair values, and the differences as of
December 31, 2015 and 2014 were as follows. Financial instruments whose fair values are considered extremely

Notes:
(1) Methods to measure fair value of financial instruments
(i) Cash and deposits, (ii) Cash and deposits in trust, (iii) Short-term loans payable
The carrying value is deemed to approximate the fair value since the instruments are scheduled to be settled in
a short period of time.
(iv) Current portion of investment corporation bonds, (vi) Investment corporation bonds
The fair value of these instruments is measured based on the market price.
(v) Current portion of long-term loans payable, (vii) Long-term loans payable
The carrying value is deemed to approximate the fair value since the interest rate on long-term loans payable
are floating interest rates which are revised periodically to reflect market interest rates.
(viii) Derivative transactions
The information on the fair value of derivative transactions is presented in Note 14.
(2) Information on financial instruments whose fair values are considered extremely difficult to measure as of
December 31, 2015 and 2014 was as follows:

Investment securities
Investment securities (equity investment in silent partnership) are not subject to fair value disclosure because
they have no market price and their fair values are considered extremely difficult to measure.
Tenant leasehold and security deposits / Tenant leasehold and security deposits in trust
Tenant leasehold and security deposits (in trust) are not subject to fair value disclosure because they have no
market price and their actual deposit periods from a tenants move-in to move-out are not estimable, thus
making a reasonable estimate of future cash flows difficult.

Notes:

(*3)

The average interest rate represents the weighted average rate during the period based on the number of days and outstanding balance of the loans
payable. The interest rate is rounded to the nearest second decimal place.
As JHR has conducted interest rate swap transactions in order to hedge against interest rate fluctuation risks, the interest rate of loans subject to
such interest rate swap transactions is the rate obtained by taking into account the effect of interest rate swaps (interest rate fixation), rounded off to
two decimal places.
Of these loans payable, the interest rate on the portion totaling 1,794 million is, in effect, fixed at 0.80225% for the period from September 30,
2014 through September 30, 2019 due to the execution of an interest rate swap agreement on September 26, 2014. Moreover, the interest rate on
the portion totaling 5,000 million is projected to be, in effect, fixed at around 0.95% for the period from March 30, 2018 through September 30,
