Ji Qi, Founder, Executive Chairman and CEO of Huazhu commented: COVID-19 has caused very significant challenges to both our China and European businesses in 2020. However, our China business achieved strong recovery throughout the year, especially in the second half of 2020 despite several resurgences of the COVID-19 pandemic in various regions. In the second half, we achieved over RMB1.6 billion of adjusted EBITDA for our China business. More importantly, we continued to expand our hotel network and pipeline, thanks to our dedicated employees, our powerful brand portfolio and solid execution. Although our European business is still being impacted by COVID-19 pandemic, we have continued to advance our digitalization plan. Moreover, we also took the opportunity to streamline our organizational structure to prepare well for future recovery.
Looking ahead, we believe the COVID-19 pandemic has not changed the long-term growth potential of Chinas lodging industry. Under the Chinas Dual circulation economy model, we continue to emphasize our China-focus strategy, together with our unique Three-in-One Super Composite business model for further hotel network expansion. More importantly, our future expansion will not focus on speed only, but more on quality as we see customers become more quality-oriented after COVID-19. Additionally, we are continuously improving and upgrading our technology and organizational capabilities to support our long-term strategy execution.

COVID-19 update
During Q4 2020, despite numerous recurrences of COVID-19 in several cities and provinces in mainland China, such as Shanghai, Chengdu, and the Northeastern area of China, our business continued to recover, thanks to Chinas effective and precise control of the COVID-19 pandemic. More importantly, we noticed that demand for travel shows resilience and recovery in previously-affected cities, with acceleration after the COVID-19 risk level was moved downward in those cities (from mid-to-high risk to low risk). This recovery trend was temporarily paused in the first two months of 2021 due to another COVID-19 resurgence in Shanghai, Beijing and Hebei Province. Accordingly, the Chinese government introduced stay local guidance prior to the Chinese New Year holiday (CNY) which further pressured the recovery in February. However, our performance started to recover steadily again post the CNY holiday. RevPAR in March 2021 recovered to 87% of 2019 from only 56% of 2019 in February 2021. Particularly, after the National Peoples Congress and the Chinese Peoples Political Consultative Conference during the first week of March, the Chinese government further eased travel restrictions which were in effect from March 16, 2021. After that, we saw hotel demand in the Beijing area recovering immediately and at a strong pace.
Steigenberger Hotels AG and its subsidiaries (DH) suffered from the second wave and third wave of COVID-19 outbreak in European countries since late September 2020. Given that the Europe has been encountering several resurgences of the COVID-19 pandemic, the lockdown period there has been extended several times, and currently is scheduled to end on April 18, 2021. Despite these resurgences, the Q4 2020 DH net revenues remain within our previous guidance. European countries began their vaccination process in December 2020. However, due to the uncertainty of the completion of the vaccination process, and consequently the timing of business recovery, we are taking further cost reduction and cash flow measures, such as negotiating with landlords to reduce our rental costs, reducing or eliminating discretionary corporate spending and capital expenditures, etc. We also actively sought new business opportunities in the governments fight against COVID-19, such as offering Huazhu hotels to support governmental agencies for pandemic prevention and control. The extension of lockdown impacts are partially offset by extension of the scope and duration of European government subsidy programs.
Guidance
Huazhu anticipates the gross opening of 1,800-2,000 hotels in 2021, considering the COVID-19 resurgence happened in January and February. In 2021, Huazhu is expected to close 500-550 hotels.
In the first quarter of 2021, Huazhu expects net revenues growth to range from an 8% to a 10% increase compared to the first quarter of 2020, or to range from an increase of 61-63% if excluding DH. For the full year of 2021, we expect the net revenue growth to range from a 50% to 54%, or to range from 50% to 54% if excluding DH.
To provide a more meaningful guidance considering the impact of COVID-19, the net revenue guidance mentioned above if compared to 2019 represents a decline of 7% to 9% in the first quarter of 2021 (or a decline of 12-14% if excluding DH), and growth of 36% to 40% for the full year in 2021 (or 15% to 19% if excluding DH). In order to contain the spread of COVID-19 during the Chinese New Year, Chinese government imposed strict stay local guidance, which impacted travel demand in January and February 2021. Upon the relaxation of travel restrictions from mid-March, we recorded a strong recovery in RevPAR. Excluding the impact of January and February, our revenue guidance for Q1 2021 compared to Q1 2019 would have been a growth of 7%-9%, (or 1%-3% if excluding DH), and 45%-49% (36%-40% if excluding DH) for the full year 2021 compared to 2019.
The above forecast reflects the Companys current and preliminary view, which is subject to change.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the Companys unaudited consolidated financial results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company uses the following non-GAAP measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the SEC: hotel operating costs excluding share-based compensation expenses; general and administrative expenses excluding share-based compensation expenses; selling and marketing expenses excluding share-based compensation expenses; adjusted income from operations excluding share-based compensation expenses; adjusted net income attributable to Huazhu Group Limited excluding share-based compensation expenses and unrealized gains (losses) from fair value changes of equity securities; adjusted basic and diluted earnings per share/ADS excluding share-based compensation expenses and unrealized gains (losses) from fair value changes of equity securities; EBITDA; adjusted EBITDA excluding share-based compensation expenses and unrealized gains (losses) from fair value changes of equity securities; and adjusted EBITDA margin. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned Reconciliations of GAAP and non-GAAP results set forth at the end of this release. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding Company performance by excluding share-based compensation expenses and unrealized gains (losses) from fair value changes of equity securities that may not be indicative of Company operating performance. The Company believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing Company performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate managements internal comparisons to the Companys historical performance. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures are also useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used regularly by Company management in financial and operational decision-making. A limitation of using non-GAAP financial measures excluding share-based compensation expenses and unrealized gains (losses) from fair value changes of equity securities is that share-based compensation expenses and unrealized gains (losses) from fair value changes of equity securities have been and will continue to be significant and recurring in the Companys business. Management compensates for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from each non-GAAP measure. The accompanying tables have more details on the reconciliations between GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures.
The Company believes that EBITDA is a useful financial metric to assess the operating and financial performance before the impact of investing and financing transactions and income taxes, given the significant investments that the Company has made in leasehold improvements, depreciation and amortization expense that comprise a significant portion of the Companys cost structure. In addition, the Company believes that EBITDA is widely used by other companies in the lodging industry and may be used by investors as a measure of financial performance. The Company believes that EBITDA will provide investors with a useful tool for comparability between periods because it eliminates depreciation and amortization expense attributable to capital expenditures. The Company also uses adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as EBITDA before share-based compensation expenses and unrealized gains (losses) from fair value changes of equity securities, to assess operating results of the hotels in operation. The Company believes that the exclusion of share-based compensation expenses and unrealized gains (losses) from fair value changes of equity securities helps facilitate year-on-year comparison of the results of operations as the share-based compensation expenses and unrealized gains (losses) from fair value changes of equity securities may not be indicative of Company operating performance.
The Company believes that unrealized gains and losses from changes in fair value of equity securities are generally meaningless in understanding our reported results or evaluating our economic performance of our businesses. These gains and losses have caused and will continue to cause significant volatility in periodic earnings.
Therefore, the Company believes adjusted EBITDA more closely reflects the performance capability of hotels. The presentation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an indication that the Companys future results will be unaffected by other charges and gains considered to be outside the ordinary course of business.
The use of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA has certain limitations. Depreciation and amortization expense for various long-term assets (including land use rights), income tax, interest expense and interest income have been and will be incurred and are not reflected in the presentation of EBITDA. Share-based compensation expenses and unrealized gains (losses) from fair value changes of equity securities have been and will be incurred and are not reflected in the presentation of adjusted EBITDA. Each of these items should also be considered in the overall evaluation of the results. The Company compensates for these limitations by providing the relevant disclosure of the depreciation and amortization, interest income, interest expense, income tax expense, share-based compensation expenses, and unrealized gains (losses) from fair value changes of equity securities and other relevant items both in the reconciliations to the U.S. GAAP financial measures and in the consolidated financial statements, all of which should be considered when evaluating the performance of the Company.
The terms EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are not defined under U.S. GAAP, and neither EBITDA nor adjusted EBITDA is a measure of net income, operating income, operating performance or liquidity presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. When assessing the operating and financial performance, investors should not consider these data in isolation or as a substitute for the Companys net income, operating income or any other operating performance measure that is calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, the Companys EBITDA or adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to EBITDA or adjusted EBITDA or similarly titled measures utilized by other companies since such other companies may not calculate EBITDA or adjusted EBITDA in the same manner as the Company does.
Reconciliations of the Companys non-GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, to the consolidated statement of operations information are included at the end of this press release.
