VOL. 16 NO. 3/OCTOBER 31, 1996 THIRD QUARTER 1996
UPDATE
SUPER 8 MOTELS NORTHWEST I
NATIONAL & REGIONAL NEWS
V.I.P. CLUB HITS 4 MILLION MARK
Super 8's frequent traveler program, the V.I.P. Club, has reached an all-time
high of 4 million members. It is now the largest frequent traveler program in
the entire economy lodging market. Super 8 Motels President Bob Weller recently
reported, "Our V.I.P. Club is one of the strongest marketing tools in the
industry. More than 50% of all reservations made through Superline are made
with the V.I.P. Card, and club members account for more than 50% of room nights
booked through Superline.''
Super 8's V.I.P. Club began in 1976 with the intent of building a guest program
that offered discounts to the frequent traveler, thus ensuring their return. By
1986, membership increased to just over 200,000. The club reached one million
members in 1990, two million in 1992, and 4 million in September of this year.
Peninsula Management Northwest is marking the achievement of this important
milestone with a continued emphasis on the importance of V.I.P. guests.
Management and front desk training programs currently being utilized
significantly highlight V.I.P. sales-and incentive programs reward staff
quarterly for their efforts. As a consistent leader nationally, Peninsula
Management now receives an even greater percentage of its business from the
V.I.P. cardholder than the 53% national figure noted above.
FALL MARKS NATIONAL HOUSEKEEPER AND CUSTOMER SERVICE WEEKS
National Housekeeper Week, September 8-14, was celebrated for the first year
within Peninsula properties with special recognition and expressions of
appreciation. Each of the 142,000 clean and comfortable guest rooms rented this
summer was made so by one of the 260 housekeepers, laundry workers, and
housemen working on behalf of Peninsula Management. Also of importance was the
ongoing maintenance work accomplished by this same staff during the busy third
quarter season.
National Customer Service Week, October 6-12, is being celebrated at Super 8
headquarters with a departmental open house and posters promoting awareness. In
the Northwest Region, CUSTOMER SERVICE constituted the primary theme at the
individual motel Employee Appreciation Meetings, during which time regular
guests were thanked and exceptional guest service providers on staff were
honored.
NASCAR SPONSORSHIP HEATS UP
New print advertisements featuring Winston Cup Champion Bill Elliott premiered
August 26 in USA Today. In the ad, Elliott commends Super 8 Motels' consistent
quality, service and value. "If Super 8 were a race car driver, I'd be looking
over my shoulder all the time," Elliott states.
Driver Bill Elliott is a NASCAR legend with 40 career victories to his name. He
has been voted Most Popular Driver of the Year by NASCAR fans ten times, most
recently in 1995. Tom McNulty, national Marketing Director, in reporting to the
Franchise Advisory Board, stated, "With Bill Elliott, we're
<PAGE> 7
working with one of NASCAR's premier drivers. He and his car are actively
followed by motor sports fans, and we are thrilled to be associated with him."
NATIONAL QUALITY ASSURANCE ANNOUNCES MORE TERMINATIONS
Continuing to take a tough stand on properties with multiple Quality Assurance
failures, Super 8 Motels, Inc. has terminated franchises in three more
locations. The Quality Assurance Department works diligently to analyze
properties with deficiencies, and strives to help owners and managers improve
overall scores in order to maintain the outstanding quality and service of the
chain.
NORTHWEST DEVELOPMENT AND CONSTRUCTION NOTES
The 78-room Ferndale, Washington, Super 8 Motel opened as scheduled on October
18. A Ribbon Cutting and Grand Open House was well attended that afternoon by
city and county officials, business leaders and Chamber of Commerce members
from numerous neighboring feeder cities. This property is notable as the first
Super 8 to be located north of Seattle on the I-5 corridor, and, as such, is
viewed as a visible link to the important Canadian market.
The construction start in Woodburn, Oregon, mentioned in the second quarter
Update, experienced delays this summer due to development fee escalation. After
months of fee negotiations, a new schedule begins construction December 1,
1996, and opening is anticipated just in time to benefit from the 1997 summer
travel season.
Additional site acquisitions have been made in Oregon. The first of these is
located in Redmond, 16 miles north of the existing Bend Super 8 Motel. This
development is moving rapidly, with opening slated for May, 1997. The second
Oregon site is in Roseburg on a newly constructed I-5 freeway interchange at
the northerly end of the city limits. Both of these properties will feature all
the traditional Super 8 Northwest amenities, and will have the capability of
handling continental breakfast should future market conditions demand that
service.
SUPER 8 MOTELS NORTHWEST I
As the enclosed charts depict, both the Federal Way and SeaTac motels had
strong third quarter operating results.
Federal Way increased occupancy by about four occupancy points, with a daily
room rate increase of over $2.00. SeaTac increased occupancy from 69% to 94%,
with an average daily rate increase of over $6.00. While it should be
remembered that at times during the renovation rooms were not available to
rent, nevertheless, it appears that the time and money invested in the remodel
of the SeaTac property is indeed paying off.
Increased occupancy and room rate is only exciting if it transfers to an
increased bottom line for ownership. In this case, it most certainly does.
Through the end of September, partnership revenues were up by $571,338 or 32%
over the same period in 1995. During the same period, net income rose from
$551,068 to $800,617, for an increase of $249,549 or 45%. The unaudited
financial statements through September 30, 1996 are enclosed for your review.
Third quarter distribution is in the amount of $25.00 per partnership unit.
This represents a 10% annualized return on your original partnership investment.
<PAGE> 8
During the third quarter we had both the SeaTac and Federal Way properties
appraised by an independent third-party appraiser. We were quite pleased with
the results. SeaTac appraised at a total of $7,400,000 and Federal Way for a
value of $3,500,000. These values serve to confirm the advice of your general
partner that sale or disposition of your partnership units should not be at a
discounted price. If you have questions about the value or desire to divest
your interests, we suggest you call your broker, tax or financial advisor, or
the partnership office.
Year-end tax audits and partnership tax information will be prepared by the
certified public accounting firm of Moss Adams. Tax information will be
forwarded to you on or before February 28, 1997. Please advise us of any change
of address information by January 1, 1997, so that we can get this information
to you in a timely manner.
Thank you for your continued support of Super 8 Motels Northwest I. We hope you
have a joyous holiday season. If you plan to travel, call 1-800-800-8000 to
reserve your room at Super 8 Motels anywhere in the United States and Canada.
