Summit Hotel Properties reduced its portfolio from 97 to 95 properties while experiencing meaningfully higher net losses despite operational challenges including declining operating income and rising interest costs.

The portfolio reduction suggests active asset management through dispositions, but the company faces headwinds from higher financing costs and weaker operational performance. The meaningful improvement in net loss position indicates some underlying financial stabilization despite operational pressures.
