BRANCOUS LP1 CALLS ON BRAEMAR’S BOARD TO STOP ATTACKING SHAREHOLDERS, DISTRIBUTE EXCESS CASH AND RENEGOTIATE THE ASHFORD PAYMENT

$BHRPress releaseJul 13, 2026, 8:05 PM ETRead the release

Activist shareholder Brancous LP1 issued a statement criticizing Braemar's Board for pursuing a 'stealth liquidation' to trigger a $480 million change-of-control payment to Ashford rather than maximizing shareholder value. The letter claims the Board is selling over 30% of gross assets to pay a fee estimated at $7.00 per share, while holding $100 million in cash that should be returned to shareholders via a special dividend.
