CorpHousing Group Inc. Announces Name Change and Rebranding to LuxUrban Hotels Inc.

 

New NASDAQ Ticker Symbol “LUXH”

 

MIAMI, FL, November 2, 2022 – CorpHousing Group Inc. (“CorpHousing,” “CHG”, or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: CHG), which utilizes a long-term lease, asset-light business model to acquire and manage a growing portfolio of short-term rental properties in major metropolitan cities, announced today that it has changed its name to LuxUrban Hotels Inc. Reflecting this change, the Company’s common stock will commence trading under the new NASDAQ ticker symbol “LUXH” on or about November 3, 2022.

 

“Our new corporate identity reflects the Company’s ongoing evolution towards acquiring and managing, via long-term leases, short-term rental hotel properties in major metropolitan cities,” said Brian Ferdinand, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Through our growing portfolio, we offer short-stay business and vacation travelers a variety of accommodations that address their individual needs, all while providing high-quality, end-to-end customer service and support.”

 

Mr. Ferdinand continued, “We have made significant strides in redefining our strategy over the last several years and our total units under management are comprised almost entirely of short-term rental hotel properties. Our new name reflects this evolved focus. The Company currently operates approximately 1,200 short term hotel rental units, and we are in various stages of negotiation with a variety of potential partners that represent thousands of additional hotel units located in destination cities. We believe that we are well positioned to advance our highly scalable, predictable, and profitable business model and look forward to our future with confidence.”

 

The Company’s official website is now accessible under the domain www.luxurbanhotels.com and its email address changed to the domain @luxurbanhotels.com.

 

The CUSIP number for the Company’s common stock will remain unchanged.

 

LuxUrban Hotels Inc.

LuxUrban Hotels Inc. utilizes a long-term lease, asset-light business model to acquire and manage a growing portfolio of short-term rental properties in major metropolitan cities. The Company’s future growth focuses primarily on seeking to create “win-win” opportunities for owners of dislocated hotels, including those impacted by COVID-19 travel restrictions, while providing LuxUrban Hotels favorable operating margins. LuxUrban Hotels operates these properties in a cost-effective manner by leveraging technology to identify, acquire, manage, and market them globally to business and vacation travelers through dozens of third-party sales and distribution channels, and the Company’s own online portal. Guests at the LuxUrban Hotels properties are provided high quality service under the Company’s consumer brand, LuxUrbanTM.
