IHT hotel operations are contributing to a solid start in the current 2023 Fiscal Second Quarter, with both the Tucson Hotel and Albuquerque Hotel achieving record revenue for the combined months of May and June 2022, of the current Fiscal Year indicating that financial results are progressing positively as the Hospitality Industry, and InnSuites Hospitality Trust (IHT) specifically, continue to rebound and recover.

InnSuites Hospitality Trust (IHT), in late 2019, made a diversification investment in privately held UniGen Power, Inc. (UniGen), a company developing a patented, high profit potential, efficient clean energy generation innovation. UniGen is making progress on development, and is in pursuit of three additional valuable patents. IHT holds convertible bonds and warrants that, when fully exercised, could result in IHT holding an approximate 25% ownership stake in UniGen.

Said James Wirth President, CEO, and IHT Board Chairman:

“With 2023 Fiscal First quarter revenues and profits continuing to rebound, along with the recently completed profitable Fiscal Year 2022, strong upward trends continue. IHT management believes that due to hotel real estate held on the books of IHT at low book values believed to be significantly below current market value and due to the high potential of the UniGen diversification investment, the future of IHT looks promising. IHT management continues to believe that recent market IHT stock valuations, especially in the current turbulent and uncertain times, do not fully reflect the future potential of IHT. Accordingly, IHT continues and has recently increased its corporate stock buyback program.”

Said Sylvin Lange Chief Financial Officer (CFO):

“IHT’s strong operating results and IHT’s increasingly strong balance sheet, both reflect a significant rebound from the prior travel year, believed to now place IHT in compliance with NYSE American listing terms.”

On June 29, 2022, the Board of Trustees of IHT announced a semi-annual dividend of $0.01 per share, payable on July 29, 2022, to shareholders of record as of July 15, 2022. This announcement continues an uninterrupted, continuous 52-year history of annual dividends, since 1971, with semi-annual dividends paid January 31, 2022, and scheduled for July 29, 2022.

The IHT Board approved, and notice is hereby given that the Fiscal 2022 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of IHT will be held at the InnSuites Hospitality Trust corporate offices located at 1730 E. Northern Avenue, Suite 122, Phoenix, Arizona 85020 (phone: 602-944-1500) on Tuesday August 16, 2022, at 1:00 P.M., local time. Shareholders of record of IHT at the close of business on July 7, 2022, are entitled to vote at the 2022 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and any adjournments or postponements thereof.
