American Hotel Income Properties REIT LP Reviewing Strategic Alternatives

By

-- The board of American Hotel Income Properties REIT LP (HOT-UN.TO) has initiated a review of strategic alternatives to "maximize unitholder value", the company said Monday.

"AHIP has been making good progress on our plan to sell assets, reduce debt and strengthen our balance sheet," said John O'Neill, Chief Executive Officer. "As dispositions completed in 2025 and 2026 to date continue to demonstrate value for our portfolio beyond AHIP's current unit price, the Board is exploring strategic alternatives to bridge that gap."

AHIP said it has not established a definitive timeline to complete the strategic review or any potential transaction and no decisions have been reached at this time. It added there can be no assurance that the engagement of financial advisor Baird or the strategic review will result in any transaction or initiative or, if a transaction or initiative is undertaken, as to the terms or timing of such a transaction or initiative. AHIP does not currently intend to disclose further developments in connection with or arising from the strategic review or in connection with any transaction, initiative or related matter, unless and until it is determined that disclosure is necessary or appropriate.

Shares in AHIP edged up in Canada last Friday.

EMEA Oil Update: Crude Climbs as Traders Assess Project Freedom

Crude oil futures rose on Monday as traders showed skepticism that the US Project Freedom initiative can restore normal trade through the Strait of Hormuz.Front-month Murban crude futures rose 1.7% to $105.49 per barrel, while Brent futures were up by 2.2% to $110.59/bbl."The market is steadier at the start of the new trading week, despite continued noise around developments in the Persian Gulf," ING said.Sentiment was briefly shaken by the announcement of 'Project Freedom', a US plan to guide commercial ships out of the Strait of Hormuz.However, initial sell-offs were quickly reversed as the market looked unconvinced by the plan's scope.Analysts note that without active US Navy escorts for inbound vessels, the move likely only provides temporary relief by clearing out existing floating storage rather than restoring normal trade flows.Supply concerns are further exacerbated by a lack of progress in diplomatic channels and shifts within OPEC+.Although the group announced a 188,000 b/d supply increase for June, its first meeting since the UAE's surprise exit, market experts doubt the full volume will reach the market.Over half of the scheduled increase is tied to Persian Gulf producers currently restricted by the Strait of Hormuz blockade.With President Trump reportedly labeling Iran's latest peace proposal "unacceptable" and Tehran refusing to discuss nuclear terms until port blockades are lifted, crude prices continue to hold a significant risk premium.
