Hoteles City Express, S.A.B. de C.V. ("Hoteles City" or the "Company") (BMV:HCITY) announced today its intention to launch an offering of common stock in a global primary and secondary offering both in Mexico and internationally, subject to market conditions and the receipt of certain regulatory authorizations.

Hoteles City would use the net proceeds from the global offering to take advantage of available growth opportunities and accelerate its plans for the expansion and development of new hotels. In addition, it would use the proceeds for future selective acquisitions of the minority interests in its co-owned hotels that it does not hold, as well as for acquisitions of hotels from third parties affiliated with the chain. A small portion of the proceeds will be used to continue to develop its commercial and distribution platforms and its electronic marketing and room distribution systems, as well as for general corporate purposes. Hoteles City maintains its growth and expansion commitment in the limited-service segment, primarily within the Mexican hotel industry.

Morgan Stanley and Citi will act as joint global coordinators. Morgan Stanley, Citi, Bank of America Merrill Lynch and HSBC will act as joint international bookrunners. Accival, Morgan Stanley, HSBC and Actinver will act as Mexican lead bookrunners.

The Company expects the offering to take place once the necessary regulatory authorizations are obtained, subject to market conditions. This offering will consist of a primary and secondary public offering in Mexico through the Mexican Stock Exchange (Bolsa Mexicana de Valores) and an offering to qualified institutional buyers in the United States pursuant to Rule 144A under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and outside the United States and Mexico pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act and in compliance with applicable law in the relevant jurisdictions.
