Four Seasons Hotels, the worldâs largest operator of luxury hotels, reported a fourth-quarter profit on higher room revenue. Four Seasons, based in Toronto, said profit was $16.9 million, or 44 cents a share, in contrast to a loss of $37.8 million, or $1.03 a share, a year earlier. The company said it had higher costs in the year-earlier period related to retirement benefits and lower revenue after ending its lease for the Pierre in New York. Revenue rose 19 percent, to $69.8 million, from $58.5 million, because of an increase in hotel management and ownership fees. Revenue for each available room worldwide rose 14 percent, to $258.13; at properties in the United States, it was up 8.4 percent, to $297.83. Four Seasons agreed last month to be sold to a group of private investors.
