Winston Hotels, Inc. (NYSE: WXH), a real estate investment trust
(REIT) and owner of premium limited-service, upscale extended-stay
and full-service hotels, today announced results for the fourth
quarter and year ended December 31, 2005. Net income available to
common shareholders was $1.9 million for the 2005 fourth quarter,
or $0.07 per share, compared to net income available to common
shareholders of $0.9 million, or $0.03 per share, for the same
period a year earlier. For the year, net loss available to common
shareholders was ($1.7) million, or $(0.07) per share, compared to
net income available to common shareholders of $7.8 million, or
$0.30 per share, for the full year 2004. The full year 2005 results
included a non-cash impairment charge of $12.4 million (net of
allocation of minority interest). Excluding this charge, 2005 net
income available to common shareholders would have been $10.6
million, or $0.39 per share. Funds from operations (FFO) available
to common shareholders for the 2005 fourth quarter rose 19 percent
to $6.4 million, compared to $5.4 million in the 2004 fourth
quarter, or $0.23 and $0.20 per common share, respectively.
Excluding the effects of the non-cash impairment charge in 2004 and
the non-cash income tax expense (benefits) in both years, the
fourth quarter 2005 FFO available to common shareholders would have
been $6.5 million, or $0.23 per share, versus $5.1 million, or
$0.19 per share for the fourth quarter of 2004. The company had
approximately 27.7 million and 27.6 million fully diluted weighted
average common shares outstanding in the 2005 and 2004 reporting
periods, respectively. For the full year 2005, FFO available to
common shareholders decreased to $16.4 million, or $0.59 per common
share, compared to $26.2 million, or $0.95 per common share for
2004. Excluding the effects of non-cash impairment charges and
non-cash income tax expense/benefits in both years, as well as
non-recurring items in both years including the effects of the
redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock in 2004, the
non-recurring lease agreement acquisition income earned in 2004, as
well as $0.06 per share of additional interest income relating to
the early payoff of the Cornhusker, Baltimore, Tampa and Kauai
hotel loans in 2005, FFO available to common shareholders would
have been $28.3 million, or $1.02 per share for 2005 versus $25.8
million, or $0.94 per share for 2004. The company's fully diluted
weighted average common shares outstanding was approximately 27.7
million and 27.6 million in the 2005 and 2004 reporting periods,
respectively. Recent Developments In February 2006, the company
closed on its first loan in a program with GE Commercial Franchise
Finance ("GEFF"), announced last year, to provide a highly
streamlined, cost-effective loan product for hoteliers. Under the
program, GEFF and Winston provide seamless first mortgage loans for
up to 85 percent of a project's cost. Winston initially funded $0.6
million of the total $2.3 million first loss piece, or the "B"
note, of a $12 million total loan amount for a to-be-built 140 room
Hilton Garden Inn in Columbia, SC. Winston is obligated to fund the
remaining balance of the "B" note ratably over the projected
construction period that has commenced and is expected to be
completed during the fourth quarter of 2006. The underlying
construction-to-five-year-permanent loan, bears interest at an all
in annual yield to the company equal to 30-day LIBOR plus
approximately 12 percent. 2005 Highlights "Winston capitalized on
all of its growth initiatives in 2005, including acquisitions,
development/repositioning and hotel debt financing," said Robert W.
Winston, III chief executive officer. "We continue to see
significant opportunities in all of our growth strategies." Hotel
Acquisitions, Dispositions "Prices for hotels rose significantly
during 2005, but we believe that we still will be able to acquire
premium-branded hotels at reasonable capitalization rates," said
Joe Green, president and chief financial officer. "In attractive
markets where hotels are selling in excess of replacement costs, we
will consider development on a highly selective basis." -- In the
2005 fourth quarter, the company acquired five Marriott Towneplace
Suites and one Courtyard by Marriott for an aggregate cost of $46.9
million. -- In 2005, the company also acquired the Hampton Inn
& Suites in Baltimore's Inner Harbor for $16.3 million and a 60
percent interest in the $18 million Stanley Hotel in Estes Park,
Colo. -- During the year, the company sold three hotels that no
longer fit the company's long-term growth strategy, for aggregate
net proceeds of $11.5 million. Hotel Development "We develop hotels
for our own account and through joint ventures," Green noted. "In
2005, we began construction on four hotels at an expected total
cost of an aggregate of approximately $62 million. We also were
designated a preferred developer for the new select-service aloft
brand by Starwood and currently are reviewing several potential
development sites on which we can build and own aloft-branded
hotels." -- The company is nearing completion on its conversion of
a former historic apartment building in Kansas City into a 123-room
Courtyard by Marriott. The $16.7 million project is expected to be
completed in late April 2006. -- Construction is well underway on a
121-room, $12.0 million Hilton Garden Inn in Akron, Ohio, which is
expected to open during the fourth quarter of 2006. Winston expects
to contribute 70 percent of the total equity investment in the
joint-venture project. -- Construction has begun on the wholly
owned, 142-room, $19.6 million Homewood Suites hotel in Princeton,
N.J., expected to open during the first quarter of 2007. -- Winston
recently broke ground on a 119-room, $13.3 million Hilton Garden
Inn in Wilmington, N.C. The wholly owned hotel is expected to open
during the second quarter of 2007. Hotel Debt Financing Program --
For the full year, the company closed on five loans totaling
approximately $23 million, including $14.0 million of four senior
participation interests in certain mezzanine loans originated by
Credit Suisse First Boston and purchased by the company in the
fourth quarter of 2005. -- In 2005, four loans with outstanding
balances in the aggregate of $16 million, were repaid to the
company, prior to their maturity date, resulting in prepayment and
related fees totaling $1.6 million, or approximately $0.06 per
share. Financing -- The company expanded its line of credit with GE
Capital in 2005 from $155 million to $215 million. Winston had
approximately $68 million available under the line as of December
31, 2005. -- In 2005, the company financed four of its existing
hotel loans under its $50 million master repurchase agreement with
Marathon Structured Finance Fund, L.P. (Marathon), borrowing
approximately $9 million. Availability under the Marathon master
repurchase agreement is approximately $41 million. -- Winston
established two new credit facilities with Marathon totaling $13.2
million to finance hotel loans under the company's hotel debt
financing program. Same Store Operating Statistics Revenue per
available room (RevPAR) in the 2005 fourth quarter improved 8.3
percent, led by a 6.8 percent improvement in average daily room
rate (ADR) and a 1.4 percent increase in occupancy, compared to the
same period a year earlier. Fourth quarter 2005 operating margins
decreased slightly to 38.4 percent from 38.7 percent in the same
period for the previous year, as they were negatively impacted by
non-recurring legal fees, rising utility costs and higher franchise
fees, offset by pro-active strategies resulting in a decrease in
labor costs. The increase in utility costs was generated solely by
rate increases, which was mitigated by implementing various
energy-saving measures. The following table details the "same
store" operating statistics, which includes 44 hotels that were
open throughout both the three and twelve months ended December 31,
2005 and the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2004
(includes 41 wholly owned hotels and three jointly owned hotels,
including the Ponte Vedra, Fla. Hampton Inn, the West Des Moines,
Iowa Fairfield Inn & Suites and the Houston, Texas SpringHill
Suites by Marriott). -0- *T Same Store Operating Statistics

*T Dividends During the 2005 fourth quarter, the company declared a
regular cash dividend of $0.15 per common share and a cash dividend
of $0.50 per share of Series B Preferred Stock. The non-cash
impairment charge and the non-cash tax expense do not affect the
company's ability to pay out dividends pursuant to its dividend
policy. "We continue to evaluate our policy on a quarterly basis
and currently are comfortable with the payout level of our current
common stock dividend," said Robert W. Winston, III, chief
executive officer. 2006 First Quarter Outlook and Guidance For the
2006 first quarter, the company forecasts net income per share
available to common shareholders of ($0.02) to $0.00. On a same
store basis, the company expects 2006 first quarter RevPAR to
increase 5 to 7 percent, compared to the prior year's first
quarter, as well as a slight increase in gross operating profit
margins for the first quarter of 2006, compared to the previous
year's first quarter. FFO per share available to common
shareholders is expected to be between $0.16 and $0.18 for the 2006
first quarter. "We expect the gross operating profit from our hotel
portfolio for the first quarter 2006 to increase over 2005 by $0.08
to $0.10 per share," Green said. "However, we expect this gain to
be offset by higher interest expense, general and administrative
costs and, management fees, coupled with lower interest income from
hotel loans and the negative impact of the seasonality of the
operations of the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, Colo. "We believe
that the anticipated negative impacts in the first quarter will be
more than offset in the remaining three quarters of the year,"
Green said. "For example, the Stanley generates most of its profit
in the second and third quarters, and we expect it to be accretive
for the full year." This guidance assumes no hotel acquisitions,
and no hotel dispositions, developments or placements of hotel debt
during the 2006 first quarter. 2006 Yearly Outlook and Guidance For
the year ended December 31, 2006, the company forecasts net income
per share available to common shareholders of $0.26 to $0.32. On a
same store basis, the company expects 2006 RevPAR to increase 5 to
7 percent, compared to the prior year. FFO per share available to
common shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2006 is
expected to be between $1.04 and $1.10 ($1.13 excluding the
expected impact of non-cash income tax expense in 2006). This
guidance assumes no hotel acquisitions, or dispositions,
developments or placements of hotel debt during the year ended
December 31, 2006, except for the operations and related debt of
the Courtyard by Marriott hotel in Kansas City, Mo., which is
expected to open by the end of April. Moreover the guidance does
not include any results from the company's assumption that it will
replace some of its current variable rate debt with fixed-rate
financing. "We believe interest rates will continue to rise and
therefore believe the timing is right to lock in long-term rates,"
Green noted. "Accordingly, the company is considering several
proposals to refinance approximately $160 million of its current
portfolio with 10-year fixed rate financing. We expect to complete
the refinancing by July 1st of this year." Green also pointed out,
"We have active pipelines in all of our growth strategies and
anticipate consummating accretive transactions in 2006. However,
timing of complex financings, acquisitions and development
transactions is very difficult to predict with reasonable accuracy.
We are comfortable with our base assumptions for 2006 and expect
improvement in our operations. We expect that 2006 will be a
productive year for the company." Winston Hotels' 2005 fourth
quarter investor conference call is scheduled for 10 a.m. EST
today, February 16, 2006. The call also will be simulcast over the

Forward-Looking Statements In addition to historical information,
this press release contains forward-looking statements. The reader
can identify these statements by use of words like "may," "will,"
"expect," "project," "anticipate," "estimate," "target," "believe,"
or "continue" or similar expressions, including without limitation
its acquisition, disposition and development plans for hotel
properties, its hotel lending plans, its dividend policy, and its
estimated net income available to common shareholders, net income
available to common shareholders per share, FFO available to common
shareholders, FFO available to common shareholders per share and
RevPAR. These statements represent the company's judgment and are
subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual
operating results to differ materially from those expressed or
implied in the forward looking statements including, but not
limited to, changes in general economic conditions, lower occupancy
rates, lower average daily rates, acquisition risks, development
risks including risk of construction delay, cost overruns,
occupancy and governmental permits, zoning, the increase of
development costs in connection with projects that are not pursued
to completion, the risk of non-payment of subordinated loans, or
the failure to make additional hotel debt investments and
investments in hotels. Other risks are discussed in the company's
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including but
not limited to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2004. Notes About Non-GAAP Financial Measures This
press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures as
defined under Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") rules. As
required by SEC rules, the company has provided a reconciliation in
this press release of each non-GAAP financial measure to its most
directly comparable GAAP measure. We believe that these non-GAAP
measures, when combined with the company's primary GAAP
presentations required by the SEC, help improve our equity holders'
ability to understand our operating performance and make it easier
to compare the results of our company with other hotel REITs. A
description of each is provided below. FFO and FFO Available to
Common Shareholders The company reports FFO in accordance with the
definition of the National Association of Real Estate Investment
Trusts ("NAREIT"). NAREIT defines FFO as net income (loss)
(determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, or "GAAP"), excluding gains (losses) from sales of
property, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments
for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures (which are
calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis). The company further
subtracts preferred stock dividends and loss on redemption of
Series A Preferred Stock from FFO to calculate FFO available to
common shareholders. FFO available to common shareholders is a
performance measure used by the company in its budgeting and
forecasting models, it is discussed during Board meetings, and is
considered when making decisions regarding acquisitions, sales of
properties and other investments, and is a metric in determining
executive compensation. The calculation of FFO and FFO available to
common shareholders may vary from entity to entity, and as such the
presentation of FFO and FFO available to common shareholders by the
company may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of
other reporting companies. FFO and FFO available to common
shareholders are not intended to represent cash flows for the
period. FFO and FFO available to common shareholders have not been
presented as an alternative to net income, and should not be
considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of
performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. FFO is a supplemental
industry-wide measure of REIT operating performance, the definition
of which was first proposed by NAREIT in 1991 (and clarified in
1995, 1999 and 2002) in response to perceived drawbacks associated
with the presentation of net income under GAAP as applied to REITs.
Since the introduction of the definition by NAREIT, the term has
come to be widely used by REITs. Historical GAAP cost accounting
for real estate assets 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, most industry investors have considered presentations
of operating results for real estate companies that use historical
GAAP cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. Accordingly,
the company believes FFO and FFO available to common shareholders
(combined with the company's primary GAAP presentations required by
the SEC) improve our investors' ability to understand the company's
operating performance. Operating Margin Operating margin is
determined by dividing gross operating profit, for the hotels whose
operating results are included in the company's consolidated
statement of operations, by total revenue. RevPAR RevPAR is an
acronym for Revenue Per Available Room, which is determined by
multiplying average daily rate by occupancy percentage for any
given period. RevPAR does not include food and beverage or other
ancillary revenues, such as parking, telephone, or other guest
services generated by the property. Similar to the reporting
periods for the company's statement of operations, hotel operating
statistics (i.e., RevPAR, average daily rate and average occupancy)
are always reported on a quarter to date and/or year to date basis.
