TORONTO, Sept. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ - Westmount Park Investments, a Canadian private family office, is pleased to recognize a significant milestone in one of its portfolio companies, Highside Companies, which has secured a US$500 million investment-grade financing package from affiliates of Apollo (NYSE: APO). The capital will support the expansion of Highside's Everhome Suites platform in collaboration with Choice Hotels International (NYSE: CHH), marking one of the largest structured financings in the extended-stay sector in recent years.

We believe extended-stay hospitality is a structurally resilient asset class, and Highside is uniquely positioned to lead its evolution. We're proud to support the company as it scales across North America and expands its footprint."
