Park Hotels & Resorts Inc. Issues Annual Corporate Responsibility Report and Recognizes Year-to-Date Energy Star Certified Properties

TYSONS, Va., Dec. 17, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Park Hotels & Resorts Inc. (NYSE: PK) (“Park” or the “Company”) today announced that the Company has issued its annual Corporate Responsibility (“CR”) Report, which details Park’s environmental, social and governance performance and initiatives during 2023 as well as the Company’s corporate responsibility strategy and approach to risk management. In addition, Park is pleased to recognize six of its hotels and resorts for earning ENERGY STAR certifications for superior energy performance during year-to-date 2024, continuing Park’s commitment to enhancing efficiency in the built environment.

“Our corporate responsibility program continues to advance, led by our best-in-class risk management practices, strategic approach to reducing our environmental footprint, unwavering commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion (“DEI”) and transparent corporate governance practices,” said Thomas J. Baltimore, Jr., Chairman and CEO of Park. “This year’s CR Report details our targeted resiliency efforts at some of Park’s coastal properties and highlights the transformative work we have completed at the Casa Marina resort in Key West. On the environmental front, in addition to describing our environmental reduction progress against our new 2019 baseline, the CR Report includes information on our efforts to enhance efficiency through retro-commissioning of various systems and equipment as well as our focus on biodiversity preservation. Furthermore, the CR Report spotlights our social impact efforts that support our associates with comprehensive benefits and pay parity across gender and race, and that support the communities in which we engage by partnering with local charitable organizations that align with our DEI mission statement. I am incredibly proud of our corporate responsibility efforts, which are a cornerstone of our Company.”
