Credit Rating For The Unrated REITs (Part 6): RLJ Lodging Trust
RLJ Lodging Trust holds a sizable, diversified hotel portfolio with solid asset coverage and moderate leverage, but faces weak liquidity and a challenging operating environment. After applying Moody's REIT methodology and market adjustments, I assign RLJ a Ba1 credit rating, reflecting both strengths and notable risks. RLJ's preferred stock (RLJ.PR.A) and OTC bonds, offer yields but lack sufficient downside protection for the risk involved.
