About Ryman Hospitality Properties, Inc.

Ryman Hospitality Properties, Inc. (NYSE: RHP) is a U.S.-listed company traded on the NYSE in the United States. It is best understood as a lodging REIT with an unusually strong entertainment overlay: the company owns and operates destination hotel assets, while also controlling a portfolio of iconic music and entertainment brands. For French-speaking investors looking at the stock, RHP stands out as a hybrid between real estate income, hospitality operations and experiential entertainment. The company traces its roots to Gaylord Entertainment and has evolved over time into a REIT focused on group-oriented, destination hotel assets. Its headquarters are in Nashville, Tennessee, a location that is strategically aligned with the company’s core assets, especially those tied to country music, tourism and large-format events. RHP currently reports three principal segments: Hospitality, Entertainment, and Corporate and Other. The Hospitality segment includes Gaylord Hotels properties, selected Marriott/JW Marriott properties under management agreements, the Inn at Opryland, and the AC Hotel. These assets are geared primarily toward meetings, conventions, corporate groups and upscale leisure travel. The Entertainment segment is what makes RHP materially different from a traditional hotel REIT. Through Opry Entertainment Group, the company owns or participates in assets such as the Grand Ole Opry, the Ryman Auditorium, WSM-AM, Ole Red, Category 10, and other Nashville-related attractions and venues. This portfolio allows RHP to generate revenue not only from lodging, but also from ticketing, venue operations, food and beverage, sponsorships, and branded live experiences. In recent years, the company has expanded its entertainment footprint further through investments such as Southern Entertainment, a music festival and events business. Competitively, RHP benefits from a portfolio of hard-to-replicate, large-scale convention and resort properties in attractive U.S. markets. Its assets are concentrated mainly in the United States, with an especially strong presence in Nashville, Texas and Arizona. This concentration supports brand strength and operational focus, but it also means earnings remain sensitive to travel demand, group booking trends, occupancy, and broader macroeconomic conditions affecting discretionary spending. Recent company updates have been positive. In 2025 and early 2026, RHP reported strong quarterly performance, including record revenue periods and healthy group demand visibility for future years. The company also expanded its hotel base with the acquisition of JW Marriott Desert Ridge in 2025. For equity investors, RHP remains a notable NYSE hospitality REIT with a differentiated asset mix, a premium destination-hotel strategy, and a meaningful entertainment monetization platform.
