INNSUITES ANNOUNCES 2027 FISCAL FIRST HALF $4M RECORD REVENUES; REVERSE MERGER INTEREST INCREASES
Phoenix, AZ, Sept. 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- InnSuites Hospitality Trust (NYSE American: IHT)announced record Fiscal 2027 (February 1, 2026 through January 31, 2027) First Fiscal Half Total Revenues of $4,099,593.
Consolidated Net Income before non-cash items primarily consisting of depreciation was $120,280 for the 2027 First Fiscal Half ended July 31, 2026. This represents an increase of $178,057 over the prior year.
Combined Hotel Occupancy was 83.42% for the First Fiscal Half of Fiscal Year 2027, which was approximately a 3.04% increase from the prior First Fiscal Half, while the Revenue Per Available Room and Suites (REVPAR), modestly increased from $78.48 to $79.66 over this same period.
IHT hotel operations were strong in the 2026 Fiscal Year ended January 31, 2026, and contributed to a steady First Half in the current 2027 Fiscal Year. Combined Hotel August Revenue for both hotels was $513,145, which led to total Hotel Revenue of approximately $4.5 million for the First Seven Fiscal Months of Fiscal 2027, a combined record. IHT’s strong hotel operating results are reflected in three of the five most recent Fiscal Years profitable, even after accounting for substantial depreciation and other non-cash expenses. These are positive signs for InnSuites, as progress remains strong, despite 2026 Travel Industry uncertainty.
On August 19, 2026, the Trust increased its shareholders’ equity by $3 million and reduced debt by $3 million.
InnSuites Hospitality Trust continues to explore diversification opportunities and opportunities to increase Equity, potentially including a merger or reverse merger, which is of high interest.
The continued growing demand for electricity from data centers plus the influx of electric vehicles, as well as projected growing needs for artificial intelligence, increased demand for electricity over the next five years is projected to approximately double, and bodes well for the IHT investment in UniGen Power, Inc. This product is a potentially power industry disruptive economical, relatively clean energy, cost effective electric generation innovation. Even though it is high risk, UniGen offers IHT high upside potential.
On February 20, 2026, James Wirth, IHT President, was elected Chairman, CEO, and President of UniGen, while Marc Berg, IHT EVP, was elected as Vice Chairman, EVP, and Secretary/Treasurer of UniGen, with plans to rejuvenate the UniGen progress, while also holding all the UniGen Board seats.
On March 5, 2025, REF, an investment entity owned by the chairman and family of IHT majority IHT shareholder, purchased IBC Hotels, LLC, and hired RRF LLLP, the management company subsidiary of InnSuites Hospitality Trust (IHT), to manage the rebirth of IBC. In the process, RRF LLLP, obtained a five-year option to purchase, at cost, IBC Hotels, LLC. This option is believed to provide IHT a valuable upside opportunity, if successful, to profit from the revitalization of InnDependent Boutique Collection (IBC Hotels).
IHT management believes that due to real estate held on the books of IHT at book values significantly below current market value, due to clean energy diversification high profit potential ahead, IBC independent hotel services prospects, a potential merger or reverse merger future, plus improving hospitality profitability before non-cash depreciation and other non-cash items, along with the recent increase of IHT equity of $3 million, the IHT future looks bright.
IHT future plans include continuation of its uninterrupted annual dividend, beginning in its inception in 1971, with the next dividend tentatively scheduled for February 15, 2027, at the beginning of the 2028 Fiscal Year.
Management believes that the Trust’s hotel operating results, real estate assets, capitalization initiatives, and strategic alternatives provide a positive basis for future of the Trust. There can be no assurance that any of these initiatives will be successful, that the Trust will complete any equity-enhancing transaction, or that the Trust will regain or maintain compliance with NYSE American continued listing standards.
