Description: APLE Apple Hospitality REIT

Apple Hospitality REIT (NYSE: APLE) is a U.S. real estate investment trust (REIT) that owns and operates a portfolio of upscale, rooms-focused hotels across 37 states and the District of Columbia. As of its most recent disclosure, the companys portfolio includes 217 hotels with roughly 29,600 guest rooms in 84 markets, concentrated under industry-leading brands: 96 Marriott-branded, 115 Hilton-branded, 5 Hyatt-branded, and 1 independent property.

The company is structured as a REIT, which under U.S. tax law generally requires the distribution of at least 90% of taxable income to shareholders in exchange for a corporate income tax exemption. APLEs rooms-focused strategy emphasizes lodging revenue over ancillary food and beverage or large-scale resort operations, and its brand-affiliation model relies on franchise agreements that provide access to major loyalty programs and reservation systems.

Apple Hospitality REIT was established and incorporated in Virginia on November 8, 2007, and began trading on the NYSE following its May 18, 2015 IPO. The company is classified within the GICS Real Estate sector, specifically the Hotel & Resort REITs sub-industry, and currently carries a mid-cap market valuation.
