Ashford Hospitality Trust (ISIN US0441037944) was trading at EUR 2.03 at Lang & Schwarz on October 5, 2026 at 3:36 p.m. CEST, up 2.53 percent versus the prior close of EUR 1.98. The hotel REIT completed the sale of Embassy Suites Las Vegas for USD 43.50 million in cash on September 25, 2026, according to StockTitan.

Las Vegas sale releases cash

The transaction involved the 220-room property and was disclosed in a Form 8-K dated October 1, 2026. The filing states that Ashford Las Vegas LP, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary, sold the hotel to 4315 Hospitality LLC under an agreement dated August 27, 2026.

The same filing says Ashford paid USD 41.20 million to the mortgage lender and reported USD 42.70 million of cash consideration net of selling expenses. That comparison matters because the gross sale amount and the cash retained after selling expenses describe different effects on liquidity.

Second-quarter revenue improves

Investing.com reported USD 273.24 million of revenue for the second quarter of 2026, compared with USD 267.53 million in the previous quarter. The increase was 2.14 percent, while net income swung from a USD 63.77 million loss to USD 127.99 million of income over the same periods.

Ashford's balance sheet remains central to the story because the company is selling assets while managing hotel-level and corporate obligations. The June 30, 2026 quarter-end financial data show USD 2.33 billion of total assets and USD 72.51 million of cash, while operating cash flow was negative USD 7.40 million for the quarter.
