Hotel Brand Acquisition |
During September 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of the Vienna House hotel brand for a total purchase price of $44 million. Vienna House’s portfolio consisted of 41 franchised hotels across Europe, predominantly in Germany. This acquisition provides significant growth opportunities for the Vienna House brand by leveraging the Company's vast global scale and franchise expertise and is consistent with its strategy to expand its brand portfolio and total system size.
The purchase price was allocated based on the relative fair value, on a pro rata basis, of the indefinite-lived trademark and the franchise agreements acquired, which were assigned a 20-year life. The following table summarizes the fair value of the assets acquired in connection with Wyndham's acquisition of Vienna House:
This acquisition was assigned to the Company’s Hotel Franchising segment. The results of operations of Vienna House have been included in the Consolidated Statements of Income since its date of acquisition. Such results were not material to the Company's results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.
