As Chad discussed, our free cash flow for the year has significantly improved, which is due to a reduction in capex to a more normal level following several years of significant reinvestment in our hotel business. It is also due to our revenue earnings growth. We continue to look for opportunities to deploy capital to grow both of our businesses with value of creative investments.

As we look ahead to 2026, we're very excited to open our new 11-hole short golf course at the Grand Geneva, known as WeNip. We completed the construction and the growing phase of the course in the late season last year, and play will begin this spring. We believe the course will allow us to capitalize on a growing segment of golf with a great complementary option to our two existing eights and whole courses on the resort, the Brute and the Highlands. With customers looking for distinctive experiential destinations, this added amenity aligns with industry trends, and we expect the short course to enhance the overall appeal of the resort to both leisure customers and group customers looking to mix in another social activity with conferences, training events, and outings. As we look ahead, our outlook for 2026 remains positive with our expectations for low single-digit Rev Park growth. led by modest growth in group business and steady leisure and business travel. Group bookings remain healthy with our group room revenue bookings for fiscal 2026, or group pace in the year for the year, running approximately 3% ahead of where we were at this time last year. Looking a bit further out to 2027, group pace is slightly behind where we were at this time last year for the next year out, although this far out, the timing of bookings can vary significantly. Banquet and catering pace for 2026 and 2027 is ahead of where we were at this time last year. Based on the current demand environment

However, On peak weekend nights, there was some rate displacement as we turned away higher rate transient business due to our commitments for groups and airline crew business, as well as occupancy displacement from business turned away due to the reduced available rooms. And we estimate that the renovation negatively impacted our RevPar growth by approximately 1.3 percentage points during the fourth quarter.
