Third Quarter Results

For the 2004 third quarter, revenues decreased approximately $8.5 million to $14.8 million, compared to the year-earlier period. The timing of hotel sales had a significant impact on revenues and operating income Operating Income

Notes:
This would not include income from things such as investments in other firms. Also referred to as operating profit or recurring profit.
 for the third quarter of 2004 compared to the same period in 2003. The company sold two hotels in the 2004 third quarter at a lower aggregate price than the aggregate price of three properties sold in the 2003 third quarter. In addition to the impact of the timing of hotel sales, the company reported lower hotel operating revenues operating revenue

 due to a reduction in the number of consolidated AmeriHost Inn hotels as a result of the sale of 11 such hotels over the last 12 months. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in incentive and royalty-sharing fees.

Net loss for the 2004 third quarter was approximately ($526,000), or ($0.10) per share, compared to net income of approximately $1.1 million, or $0.22 per share, in the 2003 third quarter. The decline was due primarily to an approximate $1.6 million decrease in operating income from the sale of consolidated AmeriHost Inn hotels, as a result of the specific hotels sold and the timing of the sale of these hotels, as discussed above.

Arlington paid off approximately $8.7 million and $19.1 million of mortgage debt in connection with the sale of hotels during the 2004 third quarter and nine month period, respectively. Total hotel mortgage debt was approximately $41.7 million as of September 30, 2004, compared to $60.1 million on December 31, 2003.

Third quarter 2004 incentive and royalty-sharing revenues improved 42 percent to approximately $376,000, compared to the like period a year earlier. This improvement was a result of the amortization of a greater number of development incentive fees received from Cendant Corporation ("Cendant") (NYSE NYSE

See: New York Stock Exchange
: CD) in connection with the sale of AmeriHost hotels, and the growing stream of royalty-sharing fees received from Cendant as the number of non-Arlington owned AmeriHost Inn franchisees expands.

PMC Lease Restructured October 4, 2004

Arlington modified its leases on 20 hotels owned by PMC Commercial Trust ("PMC") (AMEX AMEX

 many of its existing hotels and increase focus on development of larger hotels in secondary markets. Key provisions of the modified lease, which became effective October 1, 2004 include:

--An immediate 19 percent reduction in monthly cash lease payments for the 20 hotels, at an approximate $1.0 million annual savings to Arlington.

--The early termination of the leases upon the sale of all 20 leased AmeriHost Inns to third parties over the next four years, compared to the original 2013 and 2014 lease termination dates.

This modification was critical in positioning the company for future growth."

"We sold two wholly owned, non-AmeriHost Inns during the 2004 third quarter and in November 2004, we sold our joint venture ownership interest in one additional non-AmeriHost Inn, reducing our non-AmeriHost Inn properties to three, all of which are for sale."

Operation Sell Update

In the 2004 third quarter, Arlington sold two wholly owned AmeriHost Inn hotels and two non-AmeriHost Inn hotels for total gross proceeds to the company of approximately $7.3 million. In addition, the company facilitated the sale of one leased AmeriHost Inn hotel in the 2004 third quarter on behalf of PMC, the landlord, resulting in the termination of the lease with Arlington.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2004, the company has sold a total of eight wholly-owned AmeriHost Inn hotels and two wholly-owned, non-AmeriHost Inn hotels. In addition, Arlington facilitated the sale of one non-AmeriHost Inn hotel owned by a joint venture in which it was a partner, and facilitated the sale of one leased AmeriHost Inn hotel on behalf of PMC, as discussed above.

Following the close of the 2004 third quarter, the company sold one wholly-owned, AmeriHost Inn hotel and its ownership interest in a joint venture that owns and operates a non-AmeriHost Inn hotel. Both transactions will be reported in the company's fourth quarter results.

Since the company announced its plans to dispose of 25 to 30 hotels in July 2003, the company has sold 18 hotels, exclusive of the sale of the PMC hotel and the sale of our ownership interest in a non-AmeriHost Inn joint venture. "We currently have eight additional hotels under sale contracts, including PMC hotels, and we expect the sales pipeline to remain active," Herman said. "We are on target with our original disposition schedule of our Operation Sell program. We believe the rebounding economy and improving lodging Lodging or holiday accommodation is a type of accommodation.

The company's hotel assets designated for sale within the next 12 months have been classified as "held for sale" on the accompanying balance sheet as of September 30, 2004. The operations of the non-AmeriHost Inn hotels to be sold have been reclassified from the company's continuing operations and presented as "discontinued operations" in the consolidated statements of operations.

Development Program Update

Arlington broke ground on an 82-room AmeriHost Inn & Suites in Lansing, Mich. during the third quarter of 2004 for a joint venture in which it is a partner. This project features one of Arlington's new 80- to 90-room hotel designs, developed specifically for larger markets. The hotel is expected to open in the 2005 second quarter.

The company has secured debt and equity commitments for an 87-room AmeriHost Inn & Suites at the Columbus, Ohio Columbus is the capital and the largest city of the American state of Ohio.
