Six tenants secured 180,291 square feet of industrial space within the Hillsboro Technology Center. The 75-acre business park in Deerfield Beach includes about 1 million square feet of industrial and office space, and two hotels.

They are:

Fuse Specialty Appliances, a North Palm Beach-based residential appliance dealer that added 25,000 square feet of distribution space. The new lease deal gives Fuse a total of 76,374 square feet within Building H.

Commercial Relation Group, a Tampa-based company that specializes in helping companies move and furnish offices. It added 36,721 square feet of space within Building G and now occupies 62,079 square feet within the business park. Sal Bonsignore and Rod Loschiavo of Colliers represented the tenant.

Game Tables 4 Less, a Boca Raton-based distributor of game tables for foosball, table tennis and pool. It secured 18,650 square feet in Building F.

Stone Mall, a wholesaler and distributor of stone, marble and granite slabs. It added 15,122 square feet in Building C and now occupies 30,737 square feet within the business park.

Empire Today, a national carpet and hardwood floor supplier and installer. It moved to a 17,809-square-foot space in Building G when Stone Mall expanded into its previous space. The tenant was represented by Evan Christiansen of JLL.

Planestocks, a supplier of aerospace components and hardware for the aviation and defense industries. For the past 18 months, Planestocks subleased 15,615 square feet in Building C from a slot machine distributor that had vacated the space. The new lease is directly with the office park’s operators and developers.

Thomas J. Holtz and Brian Ahearn of Butters Realty & Management represented the industrial park’s operators, Coconut Creek-based Butters Construction & Development and San Francisco-based Bristol Group. Butters and Bristol built the park, on the north side of West Hillsboro Boulevard just east of Interstate 95, in phases between 2018 and 2022.

Finished in 2022, Building H is 50% leased, Holtz said, while the other five buildings are fully leased. Available industrial space is advertised on LoopNet.com for $13.95 a square foot.

Fairstead opens Delray Beach office

A New York-based real estate company that mainly renovates and manages affordable housing has established its first office in South Florida.

Fairstead recently opened a 2,150-square-foot office at 11 S. Swinton Ave., just a block away from Atlantic Avenue and Old School Square. Six people involved in development and asset management are now working from that office, said Noah Hale, Fairstead’s director of development. Three more staffers involved with development will be hired there, he added.

“While we own and operate housing up and down the Florida coast, our largest presence is in South Florida, from Boca Raton to Miami,” Hale said.

Founded in 2014, Fairstead owns and manages 24,000 apartment units in 28 states and owns about $7.8 billion in assets, according to the company. Aside from its headquarters, Fairstead’s other corporate offices are in Denver; Bethesda, Maryland; and Fort Mill, South Carolina. Though it primarily builds and manages affordable housing, the company also owns market-rate apartment buildings, a spokeswoman said.

Fairstead expanded into Florida in 2019 and now owns and manages 11 properties statewide. In South Florida, it runs five affordable housing apartments for seniors: Gould House and Weinberg House in Boca Raton; Federation Sunrise in Sunrise; Federation Gardens in Miami; and Federation Towers in Miami Beach. Last year, Fairstead completed renovations at Federation Towers and Federation Gardens, Hale said.

Fairstead’s new office is in a 3,120-square-foot commercial building constructed in 1998. The building was among a cluster of properties recently acquired by Stefan Soloviev’s Soloviev Group for $32 million.

Hotel News Now

RLJ Lodging Trust executives said a strong balance sheet gives the company multiple investment levers to potentially pull this year.

On the Bethesda, Maryland-based real estate investment trust's fourth-quarter and full-year 2022 earnings call, President and CEO Leslie Hale said both RLJ’s internal and external growth in the past year has positioned it among the top REITs.

“Looking forward, we have tremendous optionality with one of the strongest balance sheets among publicly traded peers, which is allowing us to pursue multiple channels of growth, such as brand repositioning,” she said.

RLJ ended 2022 with $1.1 billion of liquidity, including $481.3 million in unrestricted cash and undrawn revolver, according to the company's earnings release.

Hale said RLJ will continue to build its pipeline with off-market acquisitions, in which RLJ is well-positioned due to the lending market preferring all-cash buyers.

“What’s happening is that assets are not being taken out to the market on a broad basis. What’s happening is that sellers and brokers are calling buyers who they believe can actually execute on a transaction. And we’re receiving some of those inbound calls because of our balance-sheet strength and capability of actually closing,” she said.

Just because RLJ is well-positioned to make moves doesn’t mean it will, Hale said. Although the company’s liquidity mitigates some risks in the face of a potential recession, RLJ will be patient until the right opportunity presents itself.

“Our strong balance sheet is a significant advantage,” she said. “That said, we remain highly disciplined given the current uncertain environment.”

A familiar lever RLJ could pull comes in the form of stock buybacks. In 2022, RLJ repurchased 4.9 million common shares for $57.6 million. The company has already repurchased $500,000 in stock for an average price of $10.49 per share in 2023.

Sean Mahoney, executive vice president and chief financial officer for RLJ, said the company could continue this trend in 2023.

“Share repurchases are attractive today. And you would expect us to follow a similar tactic that we did in the last year or so [in] that we will be opportunistic on deploying proceeds into shares,” he said.

Conversions and Acquisitions

In the fourth quarter of 2022, RLJ opened three converted properties: The Mills House Hotel, a Curio Collection Hotel by Hilton in Charleston, South Carolina; Zachari Dunes on Mandalay Beach, a Curio Collection Hotel by Hilton in Oxnard, California; and The Pierside Hotel in Santa Monica, California.

Hale said all three properties are projected to “significantly exceed” 2019 earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization levels in 2023.

“The relaunch of these three conversions not only validates our ability to unlock the significant value embedded in our portfolio, but also enhances the overall quality of our platform,” she said.

The REIT announced two additional conversions during the earnings call that will also be rebranded in the Wyndham Houston Medical Center, which will be converted into a DoubleTree by Hilton brand, and the Hilton Indigo New Orleans Garden District, which will be converted into a Marriott Tribute Portfolio brand.

In August 2022, RLJ acquired the 21c Hotel Nashville for $59 million. The company also officially acquired the Moxy Denver Cherry Creek for $51.3 million and sold the DoubleTree Hotel Metropolitan New York City for $169 million in January 2022.

Mahoney said the flexibility of RLJ’s balance sheet allows executives to consider all options, whether on the acquisition market or internal conversion projects.

“We have the liquidity to do all of them. We don’t specifically take that cash and allocate it between the two; we look at it more on a long-term basis, because our portfolio is generating free cash-flows and liquidity is increasing over time. You would expect us to pull the right lever at the right time as opposed to [being] more regimented about specific dollars,” he said.

Fourth-Quarter and Full-Year Performance

RLJ reported net income of $6.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, according to the company’s earnings release. Comparable hotel revenue was $302.2 million, an increase from $240.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2021.

RLJ's comparable hotel adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization was $87.6 million, up from $64.8 million during the same period in 2021. In the fourth quarter, comparable RevPAR was $127.25, comparable average daily rate was $190.24 and comparable occupancy was 66.9%, all increases compared to fourth quarter 2021 levels.

For the full year, RLJ’s net income was $42.2 million, up from a loss of $311.1 million in 2021. Comparable hotel revenue was $1.2 billion, also an increase compared to 2021 levels.

Comparable hotel adjusted EBITDA was $370 million in 2022. Comparable RevPAR was $129.61, comparable ADR was $188.22 and comparable occupancy was 68.9%, all increases from 2021 levels.

As of press time, RLJ’s stock was trading at $11.35, up 7.1% year to date. The New York Stock Exchange Composite was up 1.8% over the same period.

Lockheed Martin Ventures Invests in High Performance Electric Motor Manufacturer H3X

H3X Technologies today announced the completion of an investment by Lockheed Martin Ventures (LMV), the venture arm of Lockheed Martin Corporation (NYSE: ...

H3X Technologies today announced the completion of an investment by Lockheed Martin Ventures (LMV), the venture arm of Lockheed Martin Corporation (NYSE: LMT ), a global security and aerospace company. H3X designs and manufactures advanced electric motors to enable sustainable aviation and other high-performance applications. This latest funding brings the total raised by H3X to $9M.

The investment will be used to accelerate technology development and commercialization of H3X’s HPDM family of integrated motor drives and the scale-up of their new headquarters facility in Louisville, Colorado for production.

“At H3X, we are building integrated motor drives from 30kW to 3MW that are unparalleled in performance in terms of specific power (kW/kg) and efficiency,” according to Jason Sylvestre, Co-Founder and CEO of H3X. “We are thrilled to have support from Lockheed Martin and are excited for the opportunity to work together and collaborate on next-generation defense technology using our motors.”

“H3X is working on scaling transformative technologies that we believe have the potential to provide our customer with viable options for electrifying legacy, all-domain systems and components,” said Chris Moran, vice president and general manager of Lockheed Martin Ventures. “Our investment in H3X reinforces Lockheed Martin’s commitment to developing predictive capabilities and scaling solutions that allow the U.S. and its allies to stay ahead of threats.”

H3X has made advancements in several different areas that enable them to reach continuous specific powers of >10kW/kg and best-in-class efficiency. These areas include electromagnetics, material science, power electronics, additive manufacturing, motor control, and thermals. H3X has invested heavily in vertical integration and does design, manufacturing, and testing in-house at their headquarters in Louisville, Colorado.

H3X originally developed this technology to enable compelling fully-electric and hybrid-electric aircraft with excellent range and payload capacity while also significantly reducing noise and operational costs. “When you look at the power density and efficiency requirements that are needed for electrifying narrow-body jets, there really isn’t anything out there that is sufficient,” said Jason Sylvestre. “The Megawatt-class systems that you can buy today still use technology from the last century and are far too large, heavy, and inefficient to meet the demanding requirements of electric aviation.” Additionally, H3X has found that there are a number of other markets that can also benefit from their technology including defense, marine, specialized ground vehicles, and power generation.

H3X currently has three base products, the HPDM-30, the HPDM-250, and the HPDM-3000. These three units all utilize the same core technology and range in power from 30kW to 3MW. Additionally, the core technology they’ve developed is scalable and modular and can be used to build highly integrated, aerospace-grade solutions that are tailored to match specific customer requirements.

About H3X

Founded in 2020 by a team of multidisciplinary engineers, H3X is an advanced technology and electric motor manufacturing company based in Denver, Colorado. Their team brings together driven minds from automotive, aerospace, and motorsports with deep knowledge in electric machines and power electronics. The mission of the company is to become the world’s leading supplier of aviation-grade electric propulsion systems by 2030 to enable a large-scale revolution aircraft electrification and regional air mobility.
