Broadstone Net Lease, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(in thousands, except per share amounts)

1. Business Description

Broadstone Net Lease, Inc. (the “Corporation”) is a Maryland corporation formed on October 18, 2007, that elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2008. The Corporation focuses on investing in income-producing, net leased commercial properties, primarily in the United States. The Corporation leases industrial, healthcare, restaurant, office, retail, and other commercial properties under long-term lease agreements. At September 30, 2020, the Corporation owned a diversified portfolio of 627 individual commercial properties located in 41 states throughout the continental United States and one property in British Columbia, Canada.

Broadstone Net Lease, LLC (the Corporation’s operating company, or the “OP”), is the entity through which the Corporation conducts its business and owns (either directly or through subsidiaries) all of the Corporation’s properties. The Corporation is the sole managing member of the OP. The remaining membership units in the OP (“OP Units”), which are referred to as non-controlling interests, are held by members who acquired their interest by contributing real estate properties or other assets to the OP in exchange for OP Units. As the Corporation conducts substantially all of its operations through the OP, it is structured as what is referred to as an umbrella partnership real estate investment trust (“UPREIT”). The Corporation, the OP, and its consolidated subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the “Company”.

Prior to February 7, 2020, the Corporation was externally managed by Broadstone Real Estate, LLC (“BRE”) and Broadstone Asset Management, LLC (the “Asset Manager”) subject to the direction, oversight, and approval of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board of Directors”). The Asset Manager was a wholly owned subsidiary of BRE and all of the Corporation’s officers were employees of BRE. Accordingly, both BRE and the Asset Manager were related parties of the Company. Refer to Note 3 for further discussion concerning related parties and related party transactions.

On February 7, 2020, the Corporation, the OP, BRE, and certain of their respective subsidiaries and affiliates, completed through a series of mergers (the “Mergers”) the internalization of the external management functions previously performed for the Corporation and the OP by BRE and the Asset Manager (such transactions, collectively, the “Internalization”). Upon consummation of the Internalization, the Company’s management team and corporate staff, who were previously employed by BRE, became employees of an indirect subsidiary of the OP and the Company became internally managed. Upon Internalization, the prior Property Management Agreement and Asset Management Agreement were terminated. The Internalization was not considered a “Termination Event” under the terms of the agreements and therefore no fees were paid under them as a result of the Internalization. The Internalization consisted of the acquisition of BRE in accordance with the definitive merger agreement (the “Merger Agreement”). Refer to Note 4 for further discussion regarding the Internalization, including the associated payments related thereto.

On September 18, 2020, the Corporation effected a four-for-one split on its then outstanding 26,944 shares of common stock (“Common Stock”) that previously had a $0.001 par value. Concurrent with the stock split, the OP effected a four-for-one stock split of its outstanding OP Units. No fractional shares or OP Units were issued as a result of the stock split. All historic share and per share amounts in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been adjusted to give retroactive effect to the stock split.

On September 21, 2020, the Corporation closed its initial public offering (“IPO”) at $17.00 per share, of 33,500 shares of a new class of common stock, $0.00025 par value per share (“Class A Common Stock”) pursuant to a  registration statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333-240381), as amended, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Shares of the Class A Common Stock are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “BNL”.

The terms of the Class A Common Stock are identical to the terms of the Common Stock, except that each share of Class A Common Stock will automatically convert into one share of Common Stock on March 20, 2021. The Common Stock will subsequently be listed on the New York Stock Exchange on March 22, 2021, which represents the first trading day following the 180-day period following the closing of the IPO. The Common Stock and Class A Common Stock are collectively referred to as the Corporation’s “common stock”. See further discussion of the Company’s IPO and stock split in Note 13.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Interim Information

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information (Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 270, Interim Reporting) and Article 10 of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the Corporation has omitted certain footnote disclosures which would substantially duplicate those contained within the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019, included in the Company’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on February 27, 2020. Therefore, the readers of this quarterly report should refer to those audited consolidated financial statements, specifically Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, for further discussion of significant accounting policies and estimates. The Corporation believes all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been included in these interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (which include only normal recurring adjustments).

Principles of Consolidation

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts and operations of the Company. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

To the extent the Corporation has a variable interest in entities that are not evaluated under the variable interest entity (“VIE”) model, the Corporation evaluates its interests using the voting interest entity model. The Corporation has complete responsibility for the day-to-day management of, authority to make decisions for, and control of the OP. Based on consolidation guidance, the Corporation has concluded that the OP is a VIE as the members in the OP do not possess kick-out rights or substantive participating rights. Accordingly, the Corporation consolidates its interest in the OP. However, because the Corporation holds the majority voting interest in the OP, it qualifies for the exemption from providing certain disclosure requirements associated with investments in VIEs.

The portion of the OP not owned by the Corporation is presented as non-controlling interests as of and during the periods presented.

Basis of Accounting

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates include, but are not limited to, the allocation of purchase price between tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the value of long-lived assets and goodwill, the provision for impairment, the depreciable lives of rental property, the amortizable lives of intangible assets and liabilities, the provisions for uncollectible rent and credit losses, the fair value of the earnout liability, the fair value of assumed debt and notes payable, the fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap agreements, and the determination of any uncertain tax positions. Accordingly, actual results may differ from those estimates.

Long-lived Asset Impairment

The Company reviews long-lived assets, other than goodwill, to be held and used for possible impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If, and when, such events or changes in circumstances are present, an impairment exists to the extent the carrying value of the asset or asset group exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset or asset group and its eventual disposition. Such cash flows include expected future operating income, as adjusted for trends and prospects, as well as the effects of demand, competition, and other factors. An impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset or asset group exceeds the fair value of the asset or asset group. A significant judgment is made as to if and when impairment should be taken. The Company’s assessment of impairment as of September 30, 2020 was based on the most current information available to the Company. Based upon current market conditions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic (see Note 19), certain of the Company’s properties may have fair values less than their carrying amounts. However, based on the Company’s plans with respect to each of those properties, the Company believes that their carrying amounts are recoverable and therefore, under applicable GAAP guidance, no impairment charges were recognized other than those described below. If the operating conditions mentioned above deteriorate or if the Company’s expected holding period for assets changes, subsequent tests for impairments could result in additional impairment charges in the future. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recorded impairment charges associated with three and six properties, respectively. Impairment indicators included changes in the Company’s long-term hold strategy with respect to the individual properties, which was due in part to unfavorable market trends resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic in geographic areas where the Company has vacant properties being marketed for re-lease or sale.

Inputs used in establishing fair value for real estate assets generally fall within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, which are characterized as requiring significant judgment as little or no current market activity may be available for validation. The main indicator used to establish the classification of the inputs is current market conditions, as derived through the use of published commercial real estate market information. The Company determines the valuation of impaired assets using generally accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis, income capitalization, analysis of recent comparable sales transactions, actual sales negotiations, and bona fide purchase offers received from third parties. Management may consider a single valuation technique or multiple valuation techniques, as appropriate, when estimating the fair value of its real estate.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded impairment charges of $14,732 and $2,435, and $17,399 and $3,452, respectively.   

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash includes escrow funds the Company maintains pursuant to the terms of certain mortgages, notes payable, and lease agreements, and undistributed proceeds from the sale of properties under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and is reported within Prepaid expenses and other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Revenue Recognition

The Company accounts for leases in accordance with ASC 842, Leases. The Company commences revenue recognition on its leases based on a number of factors, including the initial determination that the contract is or contains a lease. Generally, all of the Company’s property related contracts are or contain leases, and therefore revenue is recognized when the lessee takes possession of or controls the physical use of the leased assets. In most instances this occurs on the lease commencement date. At the time of lease assumption or at the inception of a new lease, including new leases that arise from amendments, the Company assesses the terms and conditions of the lease to determine the proper lease classification.

Certain of the Company’s leases require tenants to pay rent based upon a percentage of the property’s net sales (“percentage rent”) or contain rent escalators indexed to future changes in the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”). Lease income associated with such provisions is considered variable lease income and is not included in the initial measurement of the lease receivable, or in the calculation of straight-line rent revenue. Such amounts are recognized as income when the amounts are determinable.

A lease is classified as an operating lease if none of the following criteria are met: (i) ownership transfers to the lessee at the end of the lease term, (ii) the lessee has a purchase option that is reasonably expected to be exercised, (iii) the lease term is for a major part of the economic life of the leased property, (iv) the present value of the future lease payments and any residual value guaranteed by the lessee that is not already reflected in the lease payments equals or exceeds substantially all of the fair value of the leased property, and (v) the leased property is of such a specialized nature that it is expected to have no future alternative use to the Company at the end of the lease term. If one or more of these criteria are met, the lease will generally be classified as a sales-type lease, unless the lease contains a residual value guarantee from a third party other than the lessee, in which case it would be classified as a direct financing lease under certain circumstances.

The Company accounts for the right to use land as a separate lease component, unless the accounting effect of doing so would be insignificant. Determination of significance requires management judgment. In determining whether the accounting effect of separately reporting the land component from other components for its real estate leases is significant, the Company assesses: (i) whether separating the land component impacts the classification of any lease component, (ii) the value of the land component in the context of the overall contract, and (iii) whether the right to use the land is coterminous with the rights to use the other assets.

Revenue recognition methods for operating leases, direct financing leases, and sales-type leases are described below:

Rental property accounted for under operating leases – Revenue is recognized as rents are earned on a straight-line basis over the non-cancelable terms of the related leases. For leases that have fixed and measurable rent escalations and collectability of the lease payments is probable, the difference between such rental income earned and the cash rent due under the provisions of the lease is recorded as Accrued rental income on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. If the Company determines that collectability of the lease payments is not probable, the Company records an adjustment to Lease revenues, net to reduce cumulative income recognized since lease commencement to the amount of cash collected from the lessee. Future revenue recognition is limited to amounts paid by the lessee.

Rental property accounted for under direct financing leases – The Company utilizes the direct finance method of accounting to record direct financing lease income. The net investment in the direct financing lease represents receivables for the sum of future lease payments to be received and the estimated residual value of the leased property, less unamortized unearned income (which represents the difference between undiscounted cash flows and discounted cash flows). Unearned income is deferred and amortized into income over the lease terms so as to produce a constant periodic rate of return on the Company’s net investment in the leases.

Rental property accounted for under sales-type leases – For leases accounted for as sales-type leases, the Company records selling profit arising from the lease at inception, along with the net investment in the lease. The Company leases assets through the assumption of existing leases or through sale-leaseback transactions, and records such assets at their fair value at the time of acquisition, which in most cases coincides with lease inception. As a result, the Company does not generally recognize selling profit on sales-type leases. The net investment in the sales-type lease represents receivables for the sum of future lease payments and the estimated unguaranteed residual value of the leased property, each measured at net present value. Interest income is recorded over the lease terms so as to produce a constant periodic rate of return on the Company’s net investment in the leases.

Certain of the Company’s lease contracts contain nonlease components (e.g., charges for management fees, common area maintenance, and reimbursement of third-party maintenance expenses) in addition to lease components (i.e., monthly rental charges). Services related to nonlease components are provided over the same period of time as, and billed in the same manner as, monthly rental charges. The Company elected to apply the practical expedient available under ASC 842, for all classes of assets, not to separate the lease components from the nonlease components when accounting for operating leases. Since the lease component is the predominant component under each of these leases, combined revenues from both the lease and nonlease components are reported as Lease revenues, net in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

Refer below to the Recently Adopted Accounting Standards section of this Note regarding a question and answer document released by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) with guidance on the application of lease accounting guidance to lease concessions provided as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Rent Received in Advance

Rent received in advance represents tenant payments received prior to the contractual due date, and is included in Accounts payable and other liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Rent received in advance is as follows:

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the amount paid over the fair value of the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination and is assigned to one or more reporting units. The Company’s reporting unit is the same as its reportable segment. Goodwill has an indefinite life and is therefore not amortized. The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment when an event occurs or circumstances change that indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable, or at least annually. The Company will perform its first annual goodwill testing during the fourth quarter of 2020.

Initial Public Offering Costs

Prior to the close of the IPO on September 21, 2020, the Company incurred and capitalized certain direct, incremental legal, professional, accounting and other third-party fees in connection with the IPO. The deferred IPO costs were offset against IPO proceeds, and reclassified as a component of Additional paid-in capital on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets upon the consummation of the offering. At December 31, 2019, deferred IPO costs totaled $668 and were included within Prepaid expenses and other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 13 for further discussion of net proceeds associated with the IPO.

Earnout Liability

The Company’s earnout liability is payable in four tranches, in a combination of cash, common shares, and OP Units, in the same proportion as the initial consideration paid in the Internalization (see Note 4). The common shares and OP Units payable under the arrangement were originally subject to a redemption rights agreement, whereby holders of the common shares and OP Units had the right to require the Company to repurchase any or all of the common shares or OP Units if an IPO had not occurred on or before December 31, 2020 (see discussion of the redemption rights agreement in Note 4). The common shares and OP Units were deemed to be freestanding financial instruments that, at inception, embody an obligation to repurchase the Company’s common shares and OP Units, and therefore were initially classified as liabilities together with the cash portion of the earnout, and recorded in Earnout liability on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as part of the purchase price allocation. The fair value of the earnout liability is remeasured each reporting period, with changes recorded as Change in fair value of earnout liability in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

Upon completion of the IPO, the redemption rights with respect to the common shares and OP Units terminated, and the $18,436 fair value of the 726 shares of common stock and 1,240 OP Units associated with the third and fourth earnout tranches as of the date of the IPO, was reclassified to equity as a component of Additional paid-in capital and Non-controlling interests on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. At September 30, 2020, the remaining balance in the earnout liability represents $5,207 that is potentially payable in the form of cash associated with all four tranches, and $7,970, representing the estimated fair value of 363 shares of common stock and 619 OP Units associated with the first and second earnout tranches, that remain potentially payable based upon the achievement of 2020 adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”) targets.

Fair Value Measurements  

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value.  

The Company has estimated that the carrying amount reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for Cash and cash equivalents, Prepaid expenses and other assets, Tenant and other receivables, net, Accrued interest payable, and Accounts payable and other liabilities, approximates their fair values due to their short-term nature.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The Company measures and records its interest rate swap instruments (see Note 11) and earnout liability at fair value, and discloses the fair value of its long-term debt, on a recurring basis.

Earnout Liability – In connection with the Internalization, the Company recognized an earnout liability that will be due and payable to the former owners of BRE if certain milestones are achieved during specified periods of time following the closing of the Internalization (the “Earnout Periods”). Under the terms of the agreement, the milestones related to either (a) the 40-day dollar volume-weighted average price of a share of the Company’s common stock (“VWAP per REIT Share”), following the completion of an IPO of the Company’s common stock, or (b) the Company’s AFFO per share, prior to the completion of an IPO (see Note 4).

The Company utilizes third-party valuation experts to assist in estimating the fair value of the earnout liability, and develops estimates by considering weighted-average probabilities of likely outcomes, and using a Monte Carlo simulation and discounted cash flow analysis. These estimates require the Company to make various assumptions about share price volatility and, prior to the IPO, about the timing of an IPO and net asset prices, each of which are unobservable and considered Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. A change in these inputs to a different amount might result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement at the reporting date. Specifically, advancements in the estimated IPO date assumption increase the earnout liability’s fair value given the earnout’s fixed time horizon. Peer share price volatilities are used to estimate the Company’s expected share price volatility, and the Company’s corresponding ability to achieve the earnout targets. Increases in the volatility assumption would increase the earnout liability’s fair value. Increases in net asset values would also increase the earnout liability’s fair value.

The Company closed its IPO on September 21, 2020, at which time a portion of the liability payable in common shares and OP units was reclassified to equity at fair value as a component of Additional paid-in capital and Non-controlling interests, respectively. See further discussion in Earnout Liability in this Note 2.

The decrease in fair value between the Internalization and the IPO closing was driven by a lower IPO price, correlating to the net asset value assumption, and the delayed closing of the IPO due to market disruption and uncertainty presented by the COVID-19 pandemic late in the first quarter of 2020. These factors were partially offset by an increase in peer stock price volatility, which is attributable to changes in economic circumstances impacting global equity markets.

Long-term Debt The fair value of the Company’s debt was estimated using Level 2 and Level 3 inputs based on recent financing transactions, estimates of the fair value of the property that serves as collateral for such debt, historical risk premiums for loans of comparable quality, current London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), U.S. Treasury obligation interest rates, and on the discounted estimated future cash payments to be made on such debt. The discount rates estimated reflect the Company’s judgment as to the approximate current lending rates for loans or groups of loans with similar maturities and assumes that the debt is outstanding through maturity. Market information, as available, or present value techniques were utilized to estimate the amounts required to be disclosed. Since such amounts are estimates that are based on limited available market information for similar transactions and do not acknowledge transfer or other repayment restrictions that may exist on specific loans, it is unlikely that the estimated fair value of any such debt could be realized by immediate settlement of the obligation.

Non-recurring Fair Value Measurements

The Company’s non-recurring fair value measurements at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 consisted of the fair value of impaired real estate assets that were determined using Level 3 inputs.  

Right-of-Use Assets and Lease Liabilities

The Company is a lessee under non-cancelable operating leases associated with its corporate headquarters and other office spaces as well as with leases of land (“ground leases”). The Company records right-of-use assets and lease liabilities associated with these leases. The lease liability is equal to the net present value of the future payments to be made under the lease, discounted using estimates based on observable market factors. The right-of-use asset is generally equal to the lease liability plus initial direct costs associated with the leases. The Company includes in the recognition of the right-of-use asset and lease liability those renewal periods that are reasonably certain to be exercised, based on the facts and circumstances that exist at lease inception. Amounts associated with percentage rent provisions are considered variable lease costs and are not included in the initial measurement of the right-of-use asset or lease liability. The Company has made an accounting policy election, applicable to all asset types, not to separate lease from nonlease components when allocating contract consideration related to operating leases.

Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities associated with operating leases were included in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as follows:

Stock-Based Compensation

On August 4, 2020, the Board of Directors adopted the Broadstone Net Lease, Inc. 2020 Omnibus Equity and Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan”) to provide long-term stock-based incentives to employees and non-employee directors of the Company. Subject to any adjustment as provided in the Equity Incentive Plan, up to 9,000 shares may be issued pursuant to awards granted under the Equity Incentive Plan in the form of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, dividend equivalent rights, share awards and performance-based awards (including performance share units and performance-based restricted stock) and LTIP Units (as defined in the Equity Incentive Plan). On August 4, 2020, the Company awarded 341 shares of restricted common stock under the Equity Incentive Plan to certain officers and employees. The Company accounts for stock-based incentives in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, which requires that such compensation be recognized in the financial statements based on the award’s estimated grant date fair value. The value of such awards is recognized as compensation expense in General and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income (Loss) over the appropriate vesting period on a straight-line basis or at the cumulative amount vested at each balance sheet date, if greater. The Company records forfeitures during the period in which they occur by reversing all previously recorded stock compensation expense associated with the forfeited shares. Dividends declared on shares of restricted common stock issued under the

12


 

Equity Incentive Plan are recorded as Cumulative distribution in excess of retained earnings on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Accumulated dividends related to forfeited awards will be reversed through compensation expense in the period the forfeiture occurs.

Earnings per Share

Earnings per common share has been computed pursuant to the guidance in FASB ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share, which requires the classification of the Company’s unvested shares of restricted common stock, which contain rights to receive non-forfeitable dividends, as participating securities requiring the two-class method of computing earnings per share. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating securities according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. In accordance with the two-class method, the Company’s calculation of earnings per share excludes the income attributable to the unvested shares of restricted common stock from the numerator of the calculation and the weighted average number of such unvested shares from the denominator. See Note 15.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses which changed how entities measure credit losses for most financial assets. Financial assets that are measured at amortized cost are required to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected with a provision for credit losses deducted from the amortized cost basis. The guidance requires an entity to utilize broader information in estimating the expected credit losses, including forecasted information. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses which clarified that operating lease receivables recorded by lessors are explicitly excluded from the scope of this guidance. ASU 2016-13 and ASU 2018-09 (collectively, “ASC 326”) were effective January 1, 2020, under a modified retrospective application. The new guidance applies to the Company’s investments in direct financing leases. Due to the nature of its activities, the Company’s lease portfolio has historically not included a significant number of direct financing leases, and as a result the adoption of ASC 326 did not have a material impact on its financial statements. In connection with the adoption of ASC 326, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $323 with an offsetting cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as of January 1, 2020.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The amendments under ASU 2018-13 remove, add, and modify certain disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in ASC 820. The amendments were effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the new standard on a prospective basis on January 1, 2020. The modifications and new disclosures required by the new standard primarily relate to disclosures concerning recurring Level 3 fair value measurements.

In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments which clarified and improved guidance within the recently issued standards on credit losses, hedging, and recognition and measurement of financial instruments. The Company assessed the impact of the changes to Topic 326 in connection with its adoption of ASU 2016-13 discussed above. The provisions of ASU 2019-04 relating to Topics 815 and 825 relate to clarifying the provisions of existing guidance that are not applicable to the Company.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides optional expedients and exceptions to the U.S. GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. ASU 2020-04 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in ASU 2020-04 is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. During the first quarter of 2020, the Company elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections as applicable as additional changes in the market occur.

In April 2020, the FASB staff issued a question and answer document (the “Lease Modification Q&A”) that focused on the application of lease accounting guidance to lease concessions provided as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Under ASC 842, economic relief that was agreed to or negotiated outside of the original lease agreement is typically considered a lease modification, in which case both the lessee and lessor would be required to apply the respective modification frameworks. However, if the lessee was entitled to the economic relief because of either contractual or legal rights, the relief would be accounted for outside of the modification framework. Although the original lease modification guidance in ASC 842 remains appropriate to address routine lease modifications, the Lease Modification Q&A established a different framework to account for certain lease concessions granted in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, if certain criteria have been met. The Lease Modification Q&A allows the Company to make an accounting policy election to account for COVID-19 related lease concessions as either a lease modification or a negative variable

13


 

adjustment to rental revenue. Such election is required to be applied consistently to leases with similar characteristics and similar circumstances. Refer to Note 19, COVID-19 Pandemic regarding information on COVID-19 related concessions and the associated impact on the Company’s results of operations.  

Reclassifications

The Company reclassified $405 and $1,153 of Income taxes from a component of Operating expenses to a component of Other income (expenses), on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, to conform with the current period presentation. The reclassification is a change from one acceptable presentation to another acceptable presentation.

3. Related-Party Transactions

Prior to the Internalization on February 7, 2020, BRE, a related party in which certain directors of the Corporation had either a direct or indirect ownership interest, and the Asset Manager were considered to be related parties.

Property Management Agreement

The Corporation and the OP were parties to a property management agreement (as amended, the “Property Management Agreement”) with BRE. Under the terms of the Property Management Agreement, BRE managed and coordinated certain aspects of the leasing of the Corporation’s rental property.

In exchange for services provided under the Property Management Agreement, BRE received certain fees and other compensation as follows:

 

(i)

3% of gross rentals collected each month from the rental property for property management services (other than one property, which called for 5% of gross rentals under the Property Management Agreement); and

 

(ii)

Re-leasing fees for existing rental property equal to one month’s rent for a new lease with an existing tenant and two months’ rent for a new lease with a new tenant.

Upon completion of the Internalization, the Property Management Agreement was terminated and there will be no future property management fees payable to BRE. The Internalization was not considered a “Termination Event” under the Property Management Agreement, so no fees were payable to BRE as a result of the Internalization. See Note 4 for further discussion regarding the Internalization, including the associated payments related thereto.

Asset Management Agreement

The Corporation and the OP were parties to an asset management agreement (as amended, the “Asset Management Agreement”) with the Asset Manager, a single member limited liability company of which BRE was the sole member, and therefore a related party in which certain directors of the Corporation had an indirect ownership interest. Under the terms of the Asset Management Agreement, the Asset Manager was responsible for, among other things, the Corporation’s acquisition, initial leasing, and disposition strategies, financing activities, and providing support to the Corporation’s Independent Directors Committee (“IDC”) for its valuation functions and other duties. The Asset Manager also nominated two individuals to serve on the Board of Directors of the Corporation.

Under the terms of the Asset Management Agreement, the Asset Manager was compensated as follows:

 

(i)

a quarterly asset management fee equal to 0.25% of the aggregate value of common stock, based on the per share value as determined by the IDC each quarter, on a fully diluted basis as if all interests in the OP had been converted into shares of the Corporation’s common stock;  

 

(ii)

0.5% of the proceeds from future equity closings as reimbursement for offering, marketing, and brokerage expenses;

 

(iii)

1% of the gross purchase price paid for each rental property acquired (other than acquisitions described in (iv) below), including any property contributed in exchange for membership interests in the OP;

 

(iv)

2% of the gross purchase price paid for each rental property acquired in the event that the acquisition of a rental property required a new lease (as opposed to the assumption of an existing lease), such as a sale-leaseback transaction;

 

(v)

1% of the gross sale price received for each rental property disposition; and

 

(vi)

1% of the Aggregate Consideration, as defined in the Asset Management Agreement, received in connection with a disposition event, as defined in the Asset Management Agreement.  

14


 

Upon completion of the Internalization, the Asset Management Agreement was terminated and there will be no future asset management fees payable to the Asset Manager. The Internalization was not considered a “Termination Event” under the Asset Management Agreement, so no fees were payable to the Asset Manager as a result of the Internalization. See Note 4 for further discussion regarding the Internalization, including the associated payments related thereto.

Total fees incurred under the Property Management Agreement and Asset Management Agreement were as follows:

Fees were payable under the Property Management Agreement and Asset Management Agreement from January 1, 2020 through February 6, 2020. The Internalization was effective February 7, 2020.

 

There were no unpaid management fees at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. All fees related to the Property Management Agreement and the Asset Management Agreement were paid for in cash within the Company’s normal payment cycle for vendors.

Tax Protection Agreement

Upon closing of the Internalization, the Company entered into an agreement with Amy L. Tait, the Company’s founder, and certain members of her family (“Founding Owners”), pursuant to which the OP agreed to indemnify the Founding Owners against the applicable income tax liabilities resulting from the sale, exchange, transfer or other disposal of the assets of BRE that the Company acquired in the Internalization, through February 7, 2030, or the Company’s failure to allocate specific types of the OP’s indebtedness to the Founding Owners (the “Founding Owners’ Tax Protection Agreement”). The maximum amount the Company may be liable for under the Founding Owners’ Tax Protection Agreement is $10,000.

Earnout Consideration

In connection with the Internalization, the Company incurred a contingent obligation that would be payable to certain members of the Company’s Board of Directors and employees who had previously been owners and/or employees of BRE, upon the occurrence of certain events (see Note 4). The fair value of the earnout consideration amounted to $31,613 at September 30, 2020, of which $13,177 is recorded as Earnout liability, $6,809 is recorded as a component of Additional paid-in capital, and $11,627 is recorded as a component of Non-controlling interests on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (see Note 2).

Related Party Lease

In connection with the Internalization, the Company assumed the lease agreement relating to its principal executive office with Clinton Asset Holdings Associates, L.P., an affiliated third party, approximately 1.6% of which is indirectly owned by the Company’s Chairman and member of the Board of Directors. The lease of 24,072 square feet of office space expires on August 31, 2023, and contains two five-year renewal options. The annual rent for 2020 is approximately $547, with 2% annual increases thereafter. See further discussion in Note 17.

4. Internalization

On February 7, 2020, the Company completed the Internalization and the Company’s management team and corporate staff, who were previously employed by BRE, became employees of an indirect subsidiary of the OP. The Company paid base consideration of $209,516 at closing and may be required to pay additional earnout consideration of up to $75,000 in the future, as described below. In addition, the Company assumed $90,484 of debt in addition to other assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as detailed in the Allocation of Purchase Price discussion elsewhere in this Note 4.

According to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company may be required to pay additional earnout consideration of up to $75,000 payable in four tranches of $10,000, $15,000, $25,000, and $25,000 if certain milestones related to either (a) the 40-day VWAP per REIT Share, following the completion of an IPO, or (b) the Company’s AFFO per share, prior to the completion of an IPO, (each, an “Earnout Trigger”) are achieved during the Earnout Periods. The consideration will consist of a combination of cash, shares of the Company’s common stock, and OP Units, based on the same proportions paid in the base consideration. The Company completed its IPO on September 21, 2020.

(b)

Calculated based on $21.25 price per share/unit of common stock and OP Units.

Should all earnout milestones be met, an additional 1,089 shares of common stock and an additional 1,859 OP Units would be issued, in addition to the payment of $12,350 in cash. As of the Internalization date, the Company estimated that the earnout liability had a fair value of $40,119, of which approximately $33,511 related to the potential issuance of common shares and OP Units and approximately $6,608 related to the potential payment of cash. The Company will estimate the fair value of the earnout liability at each reporting date during the contingency period and record any changes in estimated fair value in its Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income and Comprehensive Income (Loss). See Note 2 for further discussion of changes in the fair value of the earnout liability subsequent to the Internalization.

Redemption Rights Agreement

If an IPO did not occur on or before the satisfaction of any Earnout Trigger, then each holder of common shares or OP Units issued in connection with the Internalization had the right to require the Company to repurchase any or all of such holder’s shares or OP Units. Such rights terminated effective with the IPO.

Upon occurrence of the IPO, the common stock and non-controlling interests issued as base consideration in connection with the Internalization and originally classified as mezzanine equity, were reclassified as a component of Common Stock, Additional paid-in capital, and Non-controlling interests on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Allocation of Purchase Price

The Internalization was accounted for as a business combination and accordingly, the Company allocated the purchase price utilizing the acquisition method to record assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values.

16


 

The allocation of the purchase price has not been finalized and is based upon preliminary estimates of these fair values, which is the best available information at the current time. The final determination of the fair values of the assets and liabilities will be based on the actual valuations of the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities that existed as of the date of completion of the acquisition, including the valuation of the earnout liability. The Company expects to finalize the valuations during the measurement period, not to exceed one year from the date of the Internalization. Consequently, amounts preliminarily allocated to identifiable tangible and intangible assets and liabilities could change.

The following table summarizes the Company’s preliminary allocation of the purchase price associated with the Internalization:

In connection with the Internalization, the Company recorded goodwill of $339,769 as a result of the consideration exceeding the fair value of the net liabilities acquired. Goodwill represents the synergies and costs savings expected from the acquired management functions and the Company’s ability to generate additional portfolio growth on a lower cost structure than when it was externally managed. The Company does not expect that the goodwill will be deductible for tax purposes.

In connection with the Internalization, the Company assumed $90,484 of debt which was subsequently repaid through a combination of revolving credit facility borrowings and entering into a new $60,000 term loan agreement (see Note 9).

The Company incurred $1,929 and $3,523 in non-recurring costs associated with the Internalization during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, and $923 and $1,195 of such costs during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, which were classified as Internalization expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

The effect of the Internalization has been reflected in the Company’s operating results beginning on February 7, 2020. No incremental revenues were recorded as a result of the Internalization. Subsequent to the Internalization, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company incurred $5,528 and $13,762, respectively, in expenses as a result of being internalized. Such amounts include general and administrative expenses associated with the Company’s performance of functions previously performed by BRE and the Asset Manager (primarily employee related costs), as well as interest expense associated with the borrowings related to the Internalization. These expenses do not include the Internalization expenses discussed above, or amounts recorded to reflect changes in the fair value of the earnout liability.

 

Condensed Pro Forma Financial Information

The following pro forma information summarizes selected financial information from the Company’s combined results of operations, as if the Internalization had occurred on January 1, 2019. These results contain certain adjustments totaling $1,929 and $8,068 of income, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and $9,437 and $23,418 of income, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019. These pro forma adjustments reflect the elimination of Internalization expenses and asset management, property management, and disposition fees between the Company and BRE and the Asset Manager in historic financial results, and adjustments to reflect incremental interest expense associated with the borrowing related to the Internalization. This pro forma information is presented for informational purposes only, and may not be indicative of what actual results of operations would have been had the Internalization occurred at the beginning of the period, nor does it purport to represent the results of future operations.

7. Investment in Rental Property and Lease Arrangements

The Company generally leases its investment rental property to established tenants in the industrial, healthcare, restaurant, office, retail, and other industries. At September 30, 2020, the Company had 611 real estate properties which were leased under leases that have been classified as operating leases and 11 that have been classified as direct financing leases. Of the 11 leases classified as direct financing leases, three include land portions which are accounted for as operating leases (see Revenue Recognition within Note 2). Substantially all leases have initial terms of 10 to 20 years. The Company’s leases generally provide for limited increases in rent as a result of fixed increases, increases in the CPI, or increases in the tenant’s sales volume. Generally, tenants are also required to pay all property taxes and assessments, substantially maintain the interior and exterior of the building, and maintain property and liability insurance coverage. The leases also typically provide for one or more multiple year renewal options, at the election of the tenant, and are subject to generally the same terms and conditions as the initial lease.

At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, one-month LIBOR was 0.15% and 1.76%, respectively.

(d)

On September 4, 2020, the Company replaced its prior $600,000 revolving credit facility with a maturity date of January 2022, with a new $900,000 facility with a maturity date of September 2023.

(e)

The 2020 Unsecured Term Loan was originally due in August 2020, and allows two six-month extensions, at the Company’s option, subject to the Company being in compliance with debt covenants and customary representations and warranties, and payment of a fee equal to 0.05% of the outstanding principal balance at the time of extension. On May 5, 2020, the Company exercised the first of these options, effective on August 2, 2020, extending the maturity date of the 2020 Unsecured Term Loan to February 2, 2021. The loan was repaid using proceeds from the Company’s IPO.

On September 4, 2020, the Company entered into an agreement (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”) for a $900,000 unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent. Closing of the  Revolving Credit Agreement was subject to certain customary conditions, as well as the closing of the IPO, with a minimum condition on size, and listing of the Company’s common stock, as set forth in the agreement. Closing occurred on September 21, 2020, at which time the Revolving Credit Facility replaced the Company’s then existing $600,000 unsecured revolving credit facility. The Revolving Credit Agreement includes an accordion feature to increase the aggregate facility size from $900,000 to $2,000,000, subject to the willingness of existing or new lenders to fund such increase and other customary conditions. The Revolving Credit Agreement matures on September 21, 2023. The Company has the option to extend the term of the Revolving Credit Agreement twice for six months per extension, subject to certain conditions, including payment of an extension fee equal to 0.0625% of the revolving commitments. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement are subject to interest only payments at variable rates equal to LIBOR plus a margin based on the Company’s credit rating, ranging from 0.825% to 1.55% per annum. Based on the Company’s current investment grade credit rating of Baa3, the applicable margin was 1.20% at September 30, 2020. In addition, the Revolving Credit Facility is subject to a facility fee based on the Company’s credit rating, ranging between 0.125% and 0.30% per annum. Based on the Company’s current credit rating, the facility fee was 0.25% per annum at September 30, 2020. The interest rate spreads and facility fee under the Revolving Credit Facility are identical to those of the facility that was replaced.

On February 7, 2020, the Company entered into a $60,000 term loan agreement maturing on February 28, 2022 (the “2022 Unsecured Term Loan”) with JP Morgan Chase, N.A. as administrative agent. The 2022 Unsecured Term Loan was fully funded at closing and used to repay a portion of the debt assumed by the Company as part of the Internalization. Borrowings under the 2022 Unsecured Term Loan are subject to interest only payments at variable rates equal to LIBOR plus a margin based upon the Company’s credit rating, ranging between 0.85% and 1.65% per annum. Based on the Company’s current credit rating the applicable margin was 1.25% at September 30, 2020.

At September 30, 2020, the weighted average interest rate on all outstanding borrowings was 2.80%, exclusive of interest rate swap agreements.  

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company paid $5,918 in debt issuance costs associated with the Revolving Credit Facility. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company paid $1,281 and $6,510, respectively, in debt issuance costs associated with the 2020 Unsecured Term Loan, the 2026 Unsecured Term Loan and its prior unsecured revolving credit agreement. For each separate debt instrument, on a lender by lender basis, in accordance with ASC 470-50, Debt Modifications and Extinguishment, the Company performed an assessment of whether the transaction was deemed to be new debt, a modification of existing debt, or an extinguishment of existing debt. Debt issuance costs are either deferred and amortized over

22


 

the term of the associated debt or expensed as incurred. Based on this assessment, $5,918 of the debt issuance costs incurred during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, and $1,275 and $6,504 of the debt issuance costs incurred during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, were deemed to be related to the issuance of new debt, or the modification of existing debt, and therefore have been deferred and are being amortized over the term of the associated debt. The remaining $6 of the debt issuance costs incurred in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, were deemed to be related to the extinguishment of debt and were expensed and included in Cost of debt extinguishment in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income (Loss). Additionally, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, $392 of unamortized debt issuance costs were expensed and included in Cost of debt extinguishment in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income (Loss). Such amounts totaled $113 and $328 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively.

Debt issuance costs are amortized as a component of interest expense in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income (Loss). The following table summarizes debt issuance cost amortization:

The Company is subject to various financial and operational covenants and financial reporting requirements pursuant to its unsecured credit agreements. These covenants require the Company to maintain certain financial ratios, including leverage, fixed charge coverage, and debt service coverage, among others. As of September 30, 2020, the Company believes it was in compliance with all of its loan covenants. The Company’s continued compliance with these covenants depends on many factors and could be impacted by current or future economic conditions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic (see Note 19), and thus there are no assurances that the Company will continue to be in compliance with its covenants. Failure to comply with the covenants would result in a default which, if the Company were unable to cure or obtain a waiver from the lenders, could accelerate the repayment of the obligations. Further, in the event of default, the Company may be restricted from paying dividends to its stockholders in excess of dividends required to maintain its REIT qualification. Accordingly, an event of default could have a material and adverse impact on the Company.

11. Interest Rate Swaps

Interest rate swaps were entered into with certain financial institutions in order to mitigate the impact of interest rate variability over the term of the related debt agreements. The interest rate swaps are considered cash flow hedges. In order to reduce counterparty concentration risk, the Company has a diversification policy for institutions that serve as swap counterparties. Under these agreements, the Company receives monthly payments from the counterparties on these interest rate swaps equal to the related variable interest rates multiplied by the outstanding notional amounts. Certain interest rate swaps amortize on a monthly basis. In turn, the Company pays the counterparties each month an amount equal to a fixed rate multiplied by the related outstanding notional amounts. The intended net impact of these transactions is that the Company pays a fixed interest rate on its variable-rate borrowings.

Amounts related to the interest rate swaps expected to be reclassified out of Accumulated other comprehensive loss to Interest expense during the next twelve months are estimated to be a loss of $16,073. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance by the counterparties of the swaps. The Company minimizes the risk exposure by limiting counterparties to major banks who meet established credit and capital guidelines.

12. Credit Risk Concentrations

The Company maintained bank balances that, at times, exceeded the federally insured limit during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The Company has not experienced losses relating to these deposits and management does not believe that the Company is exposed to any significant credit risk with respect to these amounts.

Prior to the Internalization on February 7, 2020, the Company’s rental property was managed by BRE and the Asset Manager as described in Note 3. Management fees paid to BRE and the Asset Manager represented 0% and 2% of total operating expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, and 17% and 18% of total operating expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively. These amounts do not include acquisition fees paid to the Asset Manager that were capitalized (see Note 3). The Company has mortgages and notes payable with three institutions that comprised 63%, 16%, and 10% of total mortgages and notes payable at September 30, 2020. The Company has mortgages and notes payable with three institutions that comprised 62%, 16%, and 10% of total mortgages and notes payable at December 31, 2019. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company had no individual tenants or common franchises that accounted for more than 10% of total revenues.

13. Equity

On September 21, 2020, the Corporation completed the IPO and issued 33,500 shares of Class A Common Stock at an initial public offering price of $17.00 per share. As part of the IPO, the underwriters of the IPO were granted an option, exercisable within 30 days from September 21, 2020, to purchase up to an additional 5,025 shares of Class A Common Stock at the IPO price, less underwriting discounts and commissions. The net proceeds from the IPO, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $34,170 and $3,010 of other expenses (including $1,656 of expenses that were recorded in Accounts payable and other liabilities at September 30, 2020), were $532,320 through September 30, 2020. The Company used the net proceeds to repay the remaining $216,488 principal and accrued interest due under the Company’s then existing revolving credit facility and the remaining $240,225 principal and accrued interest due under its 2020 Unsecured Term Loan. The remaining net proceeds will be used for general business purposes, including acquisitions. On October 20, 2020, the underwriters partially exercised their option. See Note 18.

Distribution Reinvestment Plan

The Corporation had adopted a Distribution Reinvestment Plan (“DRIP”), pursuant to which the Corporation’s stockholders and holders of OP Units (other than the Corporation), could elect to have cash distributions reinvested in additional shares of the Corporation’s common stock. The DRIP was terminated effective February 10, 2020. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, a total of 12,301 and 12,019 shares of common stock, respectively, have been issued under the DRIP.

14. Stock-Based Compensation

On August 4, 2020, the Company awarded 341 shares of restricted common stock under the Equity Incentive Plan to certain officers and employees. The holder of a restricted stock award is generally entitled at all times on and after the date of issuance of the restricted common shares to exercise the rights of a stockholder of the Company, including the right to vote the shares and the right to receive dividends on the shares. The restricted stock awards vest over a three or four year period from the date of the Internalization, subject to the employee’s continued service through the applicable vesting dates and in accordance with the terms of the individual award agreements. None of the shares of restricted stock were vested at September 30, 2020.

The August 4, 2020 grant date fair value per share of $20.50 was based on the determined share value established by the Board of Directors (“Determined Share Value”). Prior to the IPO, the Company sold shares of common stock in a private offering at a price equal to the Determined Share Value, which was established at least quarterly by the Board of Directors based on the net asset value (“NAV”) of the Company’s portfolio, input from management and third-party consultants, and such other factors as the Board of Directors determined.  The Company’s NAV was calculated using its established valuation process, starting with an estimate of the fair value of the properties in the portfolio as of that date based upon, among other factors, the implied market price for each asset based upon a review of market capitalization rates.

Represents the weighted average effects of 341 unvested restricted shares of common stock as of September 30, 2020, which will be excluded from the computation of earnings per share until they vest. The shares of restricted common stock were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share, as the effect of doing so would have been anti-dilutive.

(b)

Represents the weighted average effects of 12,226 and 6,948 OP Units outstanding at September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, respectively. OP Units are included in the diluted earnings per share calculation. However, because such OP Units would also require that the share of the OP income attributable to such OP units also be added back to net income, there is no effect to EPS.  

16. Supplemental Cash Flow Disclosures

Cash paid for interest was $50,853 and $49,828 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Cash paid for income taxes was $1,385 and $809 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

The following are non-cash transactions and have been excluded from the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows:

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Corporation issued 275 and 2,199 shares, respectively, of Common Stock with a value of approximately $5,733 and $46,084, respectively, under the terms of the DRIP (see Note 13).

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company issued shares of Common Stock and OP Units, with a total value of approximately $178,535, and earnout consideration with a fair value of $40,119 as consideration for the Internalization and assumed $90,484 of debt (see Note 4).

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company adjusted the carrying value of mezzanine equity non-controlling interests by $2,513, with an offset to Additional paid-in capital.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company reclassified $112,698 of mezzanine equity non-controlling interests to Non-controlling interests.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company reclassified $66,376 of mezzanine equity common stock, with an offset of $66,375 to Additional paid-in capital and $1 to Common stock.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company reclassified $18,436 of the carrying value of the earnout liability, with an offset of $11,627 as a component of Non-controlling interests and $6,809 as a component of Additional paid-in capital (see Note 2).

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, $1,656 of incurred but unpaid expenses associated with the IPO were recorded as an offset to Additional paid-in capital (see Note 13).

 

At September 30, 2020 and 2019, dividend amounts declared and accrued but not yet paid amounted to $20,722 and $11,932, respectively.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company executed lease modifications that resulted in the lease classification changing from direct financing lease to operating lease for four properties. At the modification date, the net investment in the original lease, and therefore the carrying value of the assets recognized, amounted to $9,055.

 

In connection with real estate transactions conducted during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company accepted tenant improvement allowances of $2,517 in exchange for a reduction to the cash paid for the associated real estate assets.

 

Upon adoption of ASC 326 on January 1, 2020, described in Note 2, the Company recorded a transition adjustment to record a provision for credit losses associated with its net investment in direct financing leases of $323, with an equal amount recorded as a reduction in retained earnings. The provision for credit losses is included as a component of Investment in rental property, net accounted for using the direct financing method on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

 

Upon adoption of ASC 842 on January 1, 2019, the Company recorded right-of-use assets of $1,687 and lease liabilities of $1,261 associated with ground leases where it is the lessee. The right-of-use asset was recorded net of a straight-line rent liability of $7 and ground lease intangible asset, net of $432 as of the date of adoption.

17. Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

From time to time, the Company is a party to various litigation matters incidental to the conduct of the Company’s business. While the resolution of such matters cannot be predicted with certainty, based on currently available information, the Company does not believe that the final outcome of any of these matters will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

Property and Acquisition Related

In connection with ownership and operation of real estate, the Company may potentially be liable for costs and damages related to environmental matters. The Company is not aware of any non-compliance, liability, claim, or other environmental condition that would have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

Balances associated with tenant improvement allowances are included in Accounts payable and other liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as follows:

The Company is a party to three separate tax protection agreements with the contributing members of three distinct UPREIT transactions and to the Founding Owners’ Tax Protection Agreement in connection with the Internalization (see Note 3). The tax protection agreements require the Company to indemnify the beneficiaries in the event of a sale, exchange, transfer, or other disposal of the contributed property, or in the case of the Founding Owners’ Tax Protection Agreement, the entire Company, in a taxable transaction that would cause such beneficiaries to recognize a gain that is protected under the agreements, subject to certain exceptions. Based on values as of September 30, 2020, taxable sales of the applicable properties would trigger liability under the Agreements of approximately $22,300. Based on information available, the Company does not believe that the events resulting in damages as detailed above have occurred or are likely to occur in the foreseeable future.

29


 

Obligations Under Operating Leases

Subsequent to the Internalization (see Note 4), the Company leases office space for its corporate headquarters and other locations under non-cancellable operating leases with expiration dates ranging from 2021 to 2023. These leases contain provisions for fixed monthly payments, subject to rent escalations. None of the leases are subject to any sublease agreement. The lease for the corporate headquarters is with a related party (see Note 3).

The Company also leases land at certain properties under non-cancellable operating leases (“ground leases”) with initial lease terms ranging from 2034 to 2066. These leases contain provisions for fixed monthly payments, subject to rent escalations. One lease requires the Company to make annual rent payments calculated based upon sales generated at the property (“percentage rent”). None of the leases are subject to any sublease agreement.

18. Subsequent Events

On October 15, 2020, the Company paid distributions totaling $20,722.

On October 20, 2020, the underwriters of the Company’s IPO partially exercised their option to purchase up to an additional 5,025 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock at the IPO price of $17.00. The underwriters ultimately exercised the option by purchasing an additional 3,500 shares of Class A Common stock. The Company subsequently received $55,930 of additional IPO proceeds as a result of the underwriter’s exercise of their option, net of underwriting fees and discounts.

On November 5, 2020, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly distribution of $0.25 per share on the Company’s common stock and OP Units for the fourth quarter of 2020, which will be payable on or before January 15, 2021 to stockholders and unit holders of record as of December 31, 2020.

30


 

Through November 5, 2020 the Company sold two properties with an aggregate carrying value of approximately $5,019 for total proceeds of $8,615. The Company incurred additional expenses related to the sales of approximately $402, resulting in a gain on sale of real estate of approximately $3,194.

Subsequent to September 30, 2020, the Company repaid in full the $591 outstanding balance of notes payable (see Note 10).

19. COVID-19 Pandemic

Since its discovery in December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, which causes the viral disease known as COVID-19, has spread throughout most countries of the world, including the United States. The outbreak has been declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization, and the United States Secretary of Health and Human Services has declared a public health emergency in the United States. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, many local, state and federal governments have instituted “stay at home” or “shelter in place” rules and restrictions on the types of businesses that may continue to operate, which resulted in closure of many businesses deemed to be non-essential. Many of the Company’s tenants, in particular those who operate in the retail and restaurant industries, depend on in-person interactions with customers to generate unit-level profitability, and have been negatively impacted by the pandemic, as have businesses who supply products and services to these industries. As a result, during the second quarter of 2020, the Company received a number of requests for rent relief and ultimately granted relief to 15 tenants.  

For all but one of the 15 tenants granted relief, the Company granted relief in the form of a partial rent deferral. For the remaining tenant, the Company agreed to a partial abatement of rent over a nine-month period with the minimum required rent payable increasing during the period, in exchange for a three-year lease term extension and an upside percentage rent clause during the abatement period. Partial rent deferrals and the abatement represented 0.6% and 1.4% of total contractual base rents due for the three months ended September 30, 2020, respectively.

The partial rent deferrals ranged between two and six months of rent, with a weighted average deferral period of 3.4 months. Repayment periods range from three months to one year, with a weighted average payback period of 5.6 months beginning in July 2020. At September 30, 2020, the weighted average remaining payback period for these deferrals was 4.2 months. The Company has collected 100% of deferred rent that was required to be repaid during the three months ended September 30, 2020 and the balance of rent deferrals remains probable of collection.

For partial rent deferrals expected to be repaid within a short period of time where the deferral of payments made no substantive changes to the total consideration in the original lease agreement, the amount of straight-line lease revenue recognized in the financial statements was not impacted. Deferred rents due under the agreements are recorded as Tenant and other receivables, net in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. In certain circumstances, as part of the deferral agreements, the Company negotiated lease extensions or the early exercise of tenant renewal options, resulting in cash flows under the agreements being substantially in excess of the original lease terms. The Company evaluated these agreements on a lease by lease basis, and accounted for the relief under the modification framework of ASC 842, resulting in adjustments to the amount of straight-line lease revenue that will be recorded prospectively. The Company also accounted for the partial abatement under the lease modification framework of ASC 842.

As of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s financial condition, and results of operations has been limited to effects of the grants of rent relief discussed above. The full extent of the pandemic on the Company’s future financial conditions, results of operations, liquidity, and ability to pay distributions will ultimately depend on certain developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak and its impact on the Company’s tenants, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. For further discussion of risks associated with the COVID-19 outbreak, refer to Part I, Item 2, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q below.

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Except where the context suggests otherwise, as used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the terms “BNL,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and “our company” refer to Broadstone Net Lease, Inc., a Maryland corporation incorporated on October 18, 2007, and, as required by context, Broadstone Net Lease, LLC, a New York limited liability company (the “OP”), which we refer to as the or our “OP,” and to their respective subsidiaries.

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to help the reader understand our results of operations and financial condition. This MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements, which reflect our current views regarding our business, financial performance, growth prospects and strategies, market opportunities, and market trends, that are intended to be made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts. In some cases, you can identify these forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “outlook,” “believes,” “expects,” “potential,” “continues,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “projects,” “predicts,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” or the negative version of these words or other comparable words. All of the forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are subject to various risks and uncertainties. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions, and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond our control. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, our actual results, performance, and achievements could differ materially from those expressed in or by the forward-looking statements and may be affected by a variety of risks and other factors. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause actual outcomes or results to differ materially from such forward-looking statements.

Important factors that could cause results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements are described in Item 1. “Business,” Item 1A. “Risk Factors,” and Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on February 27, 2020 and in Part II, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, as filed with the SEC on May 7, 2020.

You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. All forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the risk that actual results, performance, and achievements will differ materially from the expectations expressed in or referenced by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q will increase with the passage of time. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments, or otherwise, except as required by law.

Explanatory Note and Certain Defined Terms

Unless the context otherwise requires, the following terms and phrases are used throughout this MD&A as described below:

 

“annualized base rent” or “ABR” means the annualized contractual cash rent due for the last month of the reporting period, excluding the impacts of the short-term rent deferrals and abatements agreed to as a result of tenant requests for rent relief related to the global coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, and adjusted to remove rent from properties sold during the month and to include a full month of contractual cash rent for properties acquired during the last month. As discussed below, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, in the first half 2020 we received requests for rent relief from several tenants and agreed to temporarily defer the receipt of rent, or in limited circumstances to abate rent, for a portion of the remaining lease terms. As a result of these requests, we agreed to partial rent relief requests for 15 tenants related to 93 properties whose total base rents represent approximately 9.8% of our ABR. We have excluded the impact of these deferrals and abatements from the calculation of ABR because they are short term in nature relative to the length of our lease terms and relate to a discrete event, and therefore including them in the calculation would not provide an accurate measure of our relative portfolio composition.

 

“cash capitalization rate” represents the estimated first year cash yield to be generated on a real estate investment property, which was estimated at the time of investment based on the contractually specified cash base rent for the first full year after the date of the investment, divided by the purchase price for the property;

 

“CPI” means the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U): U.S. City Average, All Items, as published by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, or other similar index which is a measure of the average change over time in the prices paid by urban consumers for a market basket of consumer goods and services;

32


 

 

“gross asset value” means the undepreciated book value of an asset, which represents the fair value of the asset as of the date it was acquired, less any subsequent writedowns due to impairment charges;

 

“occupancy” or a specified percentage of our portfolio that is “occupied” means the quotient of (1) the total square footage of our properties minus the square footage of our properties that are vacant and from which we are not receiving any rental payment, and (2) the total square footage of our properties as of a specified date; and

 

“Revolving Credit Facility” means our $900 million unsecured revolving credit facility, dated September 21, 2020, with J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. and the other lenders party thereto, which replaced our prior $600 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility, dated June 23, 2017, with Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company and the other lenders party thereto, as amended from time to time.

Overview

We acquire, own, and manage primarily single-tenant commercial real estate properties that are net leased on a long-term basis to a diversified group of tenants. Since our inception in 2007, we have selectively invested in net leased assets in the industrial, healthcare, restaurant, office, and retail property types. As of September 30, 2020, our portfolio has grown to 627 properties in 41 U.S. states and one property in Canada, with an aggregate gross asset value of approximately $4.0 billion.

We focus on investing in real estate that is operated by creditworthy single tenants in industries characterized by positive business drivers and trends, where the properties are an integral part of the tenants’ businesses and there are opportunities to secure long-term net leases. Through long-term net leases, our tenants are able to retain operational control of their strategically important locations, while allocating their debt and equity capital to fund their core business operations rather than real estate ownership.

 

-

Diversified Portfolio. As of September 30, 2020, our portfolio comprised approximately 27.3 million rentable square feet of operational space, and was highly diversified based on property type, geography, tenant, and industry, and is cross-diversified within each (e.g., property-type diversification within a geographic concentration):

 

o

Property Type: We are focused primarily on industrial, healthcare, restaurant, office, and retail property types based on our extensive experience in and conviction around these sectors. Within these sectors, we have meaningful concentrations in manufacturing, distribution and warehouse, clinical, casual dining, quick service restaurant, strategic operations, corporate headquarters, food processing, flex/research and development, and cold storage.

 

o

Geographic Diversity: Our properties are located in 41 U.S. states and British Columbia, Canada, with no single geographic concentration exceeding 10.5% of our ABR.

 

o

Tenant and Industry Diversity: Our properties are occupied by approximately 182 different commercial tenants who operate 169 different brands that are diversified across 54 differing industries, with no single tenant accounting for more than 2.5% of our ABR.

 

-

Strong In-Place Leases with Significant Remaining Lease Term. As of September 30, 2020, our portfolio was approximately 99.8% leased based on rentable square footage with an ABR weighted average remaining lease term of approximately 10.8 years, excluding renewal options.

 

-

Standard Contractual Base Rent Escalation. Approximately 98.3% of our leases have contractual rent escalations, with an ABR weighted average minimum increase of 2.1%.

 

-

Extensive Tenant Financial Reporting. Approximately 88.4% of our ABR is received from tenants that are required to provide us with specified financial information on a periodic basis. An additional 6.4% of our ABR is received from tenants who are not required to provide us with specified financial information under the terms of our lease, but whose financial statements are available publicly, either through SEC filings or otherwise.

Further information concerning our real estate portfolio is included in Real Estate Portfolio Information below.

Recent Developments – Stock Split and Initial Public Offering

On September 18, 2020, we effected a four-for-one split on the outstanding shares of our common stock (“Common Stock”). Concurrent with the stock split, the OP effected a four-for-one stock split of its outstanding OP Units. No fractional shares or OP Units were issued as a result of the stock split. All historic share and per share amounts have been adjusted to give retroactive effect to the stock split.

33


 

On September 21, 2020, we closed an initial public offering (“IPO”) at $17.00 per share, of 33.5 million shares of a new class of common stock, $0.00025 par value per share (“Class A Common Stock”). Shares of the Class A Common Stock are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “BNL”. The terms of the Class A Common Stock are identical to the terms of the Common Stock, except that each share of Class A Common Stock will automatically convert into one share of Common Stock on March 20, 2021. The Common Stock will subsequently be listed on the New York Stock Exchange on March 22, 2021, which represents the first trading day following the 180-day period following the closing of the IPO.

On October 20, 2020, the underwriters of our IPO partially exercised their option to purchase up to an additional 5.025 million shares of our Class A Common Stock at the IPO price of $17.00. The underwriters ultimately exercised such option by purchasing an additional 3.5 million shares of Class A Common stock. We subsequently received $55.9 million of additional IPO proceeds as a result of the underwriter’s exercise of their option, net of underwriting fees and discounts.

COVID-19 Pandemic Update

The rapidly evolving circumstances related to the COVID-19 pandemic have resulted in deep economic uncertainty and far-reaching impacts on almost every business and industry, including industries in which our tenants operate. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, many countries and U.S. states, including the areas in which we operate, adopted certain measures to mitigate the ongoing public health crises. Such measures included “shelter in place” or “stay at home” rules, restrictions on travel, and restrictions on the types of businesses that may continue to operate in many countries and U.S. states. Although such restrictions have been or were in the process of being lifted in several locations, the recent resurgence of COVID-19 cases has led to a reinstatement or partial reinstatement of restrictions in some locations. We cannot predict whether and to what extent additional states and cities will implement similar restrictions or when restrictions currently in place will expire. Further, the impacts of a potential worsening of economic conditions and the continued disruptions to, and volatility in, the credit and financial markets, and consumer spending, as well as other unanticipated consequences, remain unknown.

The sections below summarize the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our results of operations, liquidity and capital resources, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, as well as management’s view of potential impacts on our future results of operations, liquidity and capital resources. For more discussion on the risks associated with the COVID-19 outbreak, see Part II, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on May 7, 2020.

Impact to Results of Operations

Our results of operations and financial condition are affected by numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control. Key factors that typically impact our results of operations and financial condition, which may be exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, include rental rates and collections, property dispositions, lease renewals and occupancy, acquisition activity, net lease terms, interest expense, general and administrative expenses, tenant bankruptcies, and impairments.

Rental Rates and Collections

Our financial results depend on our ability to timely collect contractual rents due under our long-term net leases. The COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on us has primarily manifested through tenant requests for rent relief, which we received in late March 2020 and during the second quarter from 59 tenants related to 295 properties. As of June 30, 2020, we had resolved all active outstanding requests for rent relief as of that time, and no further requests were received during the third quarter of 2020. In total, we granted partial rent relief requests to 15 tenants related to 93 properties.

We evaluated each request for rent relief as a unique situation, employing a rigorous credit and business analysis focusing on, among other things, industry circumstances, the tenant’s financial performance, liquidity position, lease structure, and geographic location, and regulatory impacts on the tenant’s operations (e.g., stay-at-home orders, essential v. nonessential business designations). Based on our analyses, we granted relief on a select basis only to those tenants we determined to be most in need. In cases where we granted rent relief, we focused on negotiating the shortest possible repayment period and, when possible, lease enhancements (e.g. extensions of term). There were several tenants who requested rent relief that we believed were well positioned to continue making rent payments during the pandemic. Many of those tenants had strong balance sheets and liquidity positions, had applied for or received Paycheck Protection Program loan funding under the CARES Act, or were designated as essential businesses and could continue to operate despite restrictions on other businesses. We declined to agree to any rent relief in those circumstances, and in all such cases the tenants continued to pay all rents due as of September 30, 2020.

The rent relief requests we granted included partial deferral of payment of rent with 14 tenants, and a partial abatement of rent with one tenant. The partial rent deferrals ranged in length between two and six months, with a weighted average deferral of 3.4 months. Amounts deferred will be repaid over periods ranging between three months to one year. At September 30, 2020, the deferral periods for all 14 tenants who received partial rent deferrals have expired, and the weighted average repayment period for remaining deferrals was 4.2 months. The partial abatement represents a portion of rents due over a nine-month period, with the minimum required rent payable increasing during the abatement period. In exchange, we negotiated a three-year lease term extension and an upside percentage rent clause during the abatement period, which we expect to provide us with long-term value accretion.

34


 

In circumstances where we agreed to a rent deferral that is to be repaid over a period of time, and where the terms of the lease and amounts paid under the lease are substantially the same, we will continue to recognize the same amount of GAAP lease revenue each period to the extent the amounts are probable of collection. The amounts we agreed to defer will impact our cash flows from operations.

Rent collections have remained strong during the fourth quarter to date. As of the date of this filing, we had collected 98.5% of contractual base rents due for October 2020 as well as 100% of amounts due to be repaid in October 2020 under rent deferral agreements. Despite our continued strong rent collections subsequent to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the duration of the pandemic and the potential ongoing impacts of the virus on our tenants’ ability to conduct their business should additional governmental restrictions be implemented, could have a significant negative impact on our ability to continue to collect future rents.

Property Dispositions

From time to time, we strategically dispose of properties, primarily when we believe the risk profile has changed and become misaligned with our then current risk-adjusted return objectives. The resulting gains or losses on dispositions may materially impact our operating results, and the recognition of a gain or loss on the sale of real estate varies from transaction to transaction based on fluctuations in asset prices and demand in the real estate market at the time a property is listed for sale. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen a slowdown in real estate transactions and weakening market conditions for several property types resulting from an increase in vacant rental space. Although we have been able to dispose of properties during the first nine months of 2020 at advantageous prices, in the short term, the slowdown in market activity may inhibit our ability to further dispose of properties we have identified for disposition, including those leased by tenants that experience significant credit deterioration as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the price at which we are able to sell the properties may be negatively impacted. We will continue to monitor the pandemic’s impact and continue to selectively dispose of properties when advantageous to do so.

Lease Renewals and Occupancy

As of September 30, 2020, the ABR weighted average remaining term of our portfolio was approximately 10.8 years, excluding renewal options, and approximately 8.2% of our leases (based on ABR) will expire prior to January 1, 2025. The stability of the rental revenue generated by our properties depends principally on our tenants’ ability to pay rent and our ability to collect rents, renew expiring leases or re-lease space upon the expiration or other termination of leases, lease currently vacant properties, and maintain or increase rental rates at our leased properties. To the extent our properties become vacant, we would forego rental income while remaining responsible for the payment of property taxes and maintaining the property until it is re-leased, which could negatively impact our operating results. Our occupancy rates have remained strong during the COVID-19 pandemic, standing at 99.6% as of September 30, 2020 based on rentable square footage. Additionally, when negotiating COVID-19 related rent relief agreements, we have sought to extend lease terms where possible to preserve the continuity of tenants and long-term cash flows derived from our portfolio. While we believe our portfolio’s diversity should allow us to manage the impact the COVID-19 pandemic may have on lease renewals and occupancy, we continue to monitor the pandemic’s effects on several industries in which our tenants operate, such as bankruptcies by large retailers, continued or increased occupancy limits established by local governments on the casual dining industry, as well as the potential long-term effects on the demand for and utilization of office space as companies consider adopting increased work from home models.

Acquisition Activity

Our historical growth in revenues and earnings has been achieved through rent escalations associated with existing in-place leases, coupled with rental income generated from accretive property acquisitions. Our ability to grow revenue will depend, to a significant degree, on our ability to identify and complete acquisitions that meet our investment criteria. Changes in capitalization rates, interest rates, or other factors may impact our acquisition opportunities in the future. Market conditions may also impact the total returns we can achieve on our investments. Our acquisition volume also depends on our ability to access third-party debt and equity financing. The COVID-19 pandemic caused a slowdown in acquisition volume, and we did not acquire any new properties during the first nine months of 2020. We have continued to monitor the pandemic’s impact on capitalization rates, interest rates, and access and cost of equity and debt capital.

We currently have a robust pipeline of potential investment opportunities, including two acquisitions that are currently under executed contract. We are a party to two purchase and sale agreements for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $33 million (excluding transaction costs) for a weighted average initial cash capitalization rate of approximately 7.03%. We expect that these transactions will close during the fourth quarter of 2020. At the time of acquisition, the properties will have an expected weighted average remaining lease term of approximately 18.2 years and weighted average annual rent increases of approximately 1.92%. In connection with these acquisitions, we expect to enter into or assume leases with an initial ABR of approximately $2.3 million. While we regard the completion of these pending acquisitions to be probable, these transactions are subject to customary closing conditions, including the completion of due diligence, and there can be no assurance that these acquisitions will be completed on the terms described above or at all. These acquisitions will be funded using the net proceeds raised pursuant to our initial public offering.

Net Lease Terms

Substantially all of our leases are net leases pursuant to which our tenant generally is obligated to pay all expenses associated with the leased property including real estate taxes, insurance, maintenance, repairs, and capital costs. A limited number of leases require that we pay some or all of the property expenses such as the cost of environmental liabilities, roof and structure repairs, real estate taxes, insurance, or certain non-structural repairs and maintenance. Additionally, we seek to use master lease structures where it fits market practice in the particular property type, pursuant to which we seek to lease multiple properties to a single tenant on an all or none basis. Master leases strengthen our ability to preserve rental revenue and prevent costs associated with vacancies for underperforming properties. We believe the master lease structure is most prevalent and applicable to leases in our restaurant and retail property types, while less relevant to our other property types, such as healthcare and industrial. As of September 30, 2020, master leases contributed approximately 34.2% of our overall ABR (our largest master lease by ABR related to 24 properties and contributed 2.5% of our ABR, and our smallest master lease by ABR related to two properties and contributed 0.1% of our ABR), 73.4% of our restaurant property ABR (161 of our 240 restaurant properties), and 51.3% of our retail property ABR (78 of our 128 retail properties).

In instances in which we granted rent relief, we generally preserved the rights afforded to us pursuant to our leases. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic presents certain risks of modifications to our lease terms, including certain rights we have under master leases. The ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic could also increase the risk of tenants’ failure to meet their lease obligations, including the risk that the prolonged economic downturn forces tenants into bankruptcy. An increase in the number of leases under which we are responsible for some or all property related expenses could negatively influence our operating results.

Interest Expense

We anticipate that we will continue to incur debt to fund future acquisition activity, which will increase the amount of interest expense we incur. In addition, although we attempt to limit our total floating-rate debt exposure, changes in the interest rate environment could either increase or decrease our weighted average interest rate in the future. Any changes to our debt structure or debt financing associated with property acquisitions, could materially influence our operating results depending on the terms of any such debt. A downgrade in our credit rating could also increase the amount of interest we pay under our debt agreements.

Interest rates have continued to decline as the U.S. federal government attempts to combat the economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. We benefited from this dynamic to the extent our floating rate borrowings were unhedged during the third quarter. Such borrowings bear interest at variable rates equal to LIBOR plus a margin based on our credit rating. The one-month LIBOR rate decreased from 1.76% at December 31, 2019, to 0.15% at September 30, 2020. We repaid $456.3 million of unhedged borrowings with the proceeds of our IPO, and approximately $110 million of our outstanding borrowings at September 30, 2020, remained unhedged. Restrictions in credit markets resulted in increased borrowing spreads across the debt capital markets earlier in the year as compared to the end of 2019, although they have since narrowed. As market conditions evolve and we return to executing against our growth strategy, additional changes in interest rates and our borrowing spreads could influence our operating results.  

General and Administrative Expenses

Our general and administrative expenses primarily consist of compensation and related costs, third party legal, accounting, and consulting costs, travel and entertainment, and general office expenses. Since March 16, 2020, we have been primarily operating under a work from home policy. As of the date of this filing, the policy remains in effect. Given our limited headcount, we have not incurred a material amount of cash outlays on information technology or infrastructure to facilitate our remote workforce, and do not believe we will incur significant costs in the future. We have experienced a significant decrease in travel and entertainment expenses, as social distancing guidelines and restrictions have limited corporate travel. These benefits, however, may be outweighed by incremental third party legal, accounting, and consulting costs if the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic worsen.

Tenant Bankruptcies

Adverse economic conditions, particularly those that affect the markets in which our properties are located, or downturns in our tenants’ industries could impair our tenants’ ability to meet their lease obligations to us and our ability to renew expiring leases or re-lease space. In particular, the bankruptcy of one or more of our tenants could adversely affect our ability to collect rents from such tenants and maintain our portfolio’s occupancy. We have historically experienced only a limited number of tenant bankruptcies, which have not been material to our financial results. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, only one of our tenants was subject to bankruptcy proceedings which resulted in vacancies and our assumption of certain landlord responsibilities. The bankruptcy for this tenant concluded during the third quarter, we successfully re-leased the majority of properties, and reached a court approved settlement whereby we received approximately 86.5% of the total post-petition base rent that had been owed by the tenant. We have yet to see the long-term effects of the pandemic and the extent to which it may impact our tenants in the future. A prolonged exposure to the negative economic impacts of the pandemic may result in additional tenant bankruptcies.

Impairments

We review long-lived assets to be held and used for possible impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If, and when, such events or changes in circumstances are present, an impairment exists to the extent the carrying value of the asset or asset group exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset or asset group and its eventual disposition. Such cash flows include expected future operating income, as adjusted for trends and prospects, as well as the effects of demand, competition, and other factors. Significant judgment is made as to if and when impairment should be taken. If our strategy, or one or more of the assumptions described above were to change in the future, an impairment may need to be recognized. Indications of a tenant’s inability to continue as a going concern, changes in our view or strategy relative to a tenant’s business or industry as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, or changes in our long-term hold strategies, could each be indicative of an impairment triggering event. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, we recognized $14.7 million and $17.4 million, respectively, of impairment charges, mainly resulting from changes in our long-term hold strategy with respect to the individual properties, which was due in part to unfavorable market trends resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic in geographic areas where we have vacant properties being marketed for re-lease or sale. We face the risk of additional impairments depending on the long-term effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the extent to which it may impact our tenants in the future.

 

Impact to Liquidity and Capital Resources

Given the economic uncertainty and evolving circumstances related to the COVID-19 pandemic and the potential for further tenant requests for rent relief, we continue to evaluate all options for strengthening our liquidity position. Most recently, our IPO and upsizing of our Revolving Credit Facility during the third quarter have each bolstered our liquidity, reduced our leverage and allowed us to maintain financial flexibility. Earlier in the year, we temporarily suspended our distributions to shareholders based upon the uncertainties surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic. Our board of directors approved a quarterly distribution of $0.135 per share at its August 4, 2020 meeting. At its November 5, 2020 meeting, the board approved a $0.25 distribution per common share and OP Unit to stockholders and OP Unit holders of record as of December 31, 2020, payable on or before January 15, 2021.

In addition to our $109.0 million of cash and restricted cash on hand at September 30, 2020, we also have $900 million of available capacity under our Revolving Credit Facility. Under the terms of our credit agreements, we must maintain ratios of total indebtedness to total market value, and total unsecured indebtedness to total unencumbered eligible property value (together, “leverage covenant ratios”), of less than 60%, measured as of each quarter end. Taking into consideration our leverage covenant ratios, as of September 30, 2020 we had approximately $738 million of available borrowing capacity under our covenants. Management believes we were in compliance with the terms of our covenants as of September 30, 2020.

We believe our cash on-hand and available capacity on our credit facilities provides us with the ability to meet all current obligations and to maintain our REIT status. However, the COVID-19 pandemic’s ultimate impact on our tenants is not yet known, and could result in significantly aged delinquencies and tenant defaults, which would have a direct impact on our leverage covenant ratios. See further discussion concerning our liquidity in Liquidity and Capital Resources below.

Other Considerations

Internal Controls over Financial Reporting and Disclosure Controls

We have taken proactive steps to maintain an appropriate internal control environment while migrating our workforce to a work from home dynamic. Our access to technology and online communications has required minimal changes to controls, none of which we deem material. We believe our existing disclosure controls are appropriate to address the reporting complexities presented by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Real Estate Portfolio Information

To achieve an appropriate risk-adjusted return, we intend to maintain a highly diversified portfolio of primarily single-tenant commercial real estate properties spread across multiple property types, geographic locations, tenants, and industries and that have cross-diversification within each.

The following charts summarize our portfolio diversification by property type, tenant, brand, industry and geographic location as of September 30, 2020. The percentages below are calculated based on our ABR of $288.0 million as of September 30, 2020.

As of September 30, 2020, approximately 99.8% of our portfolio’s rentable square footage, representing all but six of our properties, was subject to a lease. Because substantially all of our properties are leased under long-term leases, we are not currently required to perform significant ongoing leasing activities on our properties. The leases for two of our properties, representing less than 0.1% of our ABR, will expire during 2020, and leases for an additional six properties, representing approximately 0.5% of our ABR, will expire during 2021 excluding renewal options. During the third quarter of 2020 we extended the terms of leases with two tenants. As of September 30, 2020, the ABR weighted average remaining term of our leases was approximately 10.8 years. Less than 5% of the properties in our portfolio are subject to leases without at least one renewal option. Approximately 59.1% of our rental revenue was derived from leases that will expire during 2030 and thereafter, and no more than 9.2% of our rental revenue was derived from leases that expire in any single year prior to 2030. The following chart sets forth our lease expirations based upon the terms of the leases in place as of September 30, 2020.

 

 

The following table presents certain information based on lease expirations by year. Amounts are in thousands, except for number of properties.

The increase in Lease revenues, net for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, was primarily attributable to growth in our real estate portfolio through accretive property acquisitions during 2019. In 2019, we significantly increased the size of our portfolio, adding 74 new properties at an aggregate cost of approximately $1.0 billion, excluding capitalized acquisition costs. Our acquisitions were largely weighted towards the second half of the year, with the closing of a $735.7 million industrial and office portfolio in August. As of September 30, 2020, our portfolio was 99.8% occupied (based on rentable square footage), with ABR weighted average annual rent increases of 2.1%.

Asset management fees and Property management fees

Prior to the Internalization on February 7, 2020, we paid our third-party manager a quarterly fee equal to 0.25% of the aggregate value of our equity on a fully diluted basis, based on the Determined Share Value established by our board of directors. Additionally, we paid our third-party manager a monthly fee equal to 3% of gross rentals collected from our real estate portfolio as compensation for its property management services. Upon completion of the Internalization, the agreements with the third-party manager were terminated, resulting in a decrease in these expenses as compared to the prior year period. Our management fees were replaced by compensation and related costs associated with an internalized management structure, and corresponding general and administrative expenses.

General and administrative

The increase in general and administrative expenses mainly reflects the impact of the Internalization associated with our newly acquired employee base. Following the Internalization, our asset and property management fees were replaced with compensation and related expenses, which totaled $4.6 million and $11.3 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, along with associated general and administrative expenses. We are achieving costs savings from our internalized structure, as the increase in general and administrative expenses is less than the combined decrease in asset management, property management, and disposition fees incurred during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 under our prior externally managed structure.

Provision for impairment of investment in rental properties

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, we recognized $14.7 million and $17.4 million, respectively, of impairment on our investments in rental properties, compared to $2.4 million and $3.5 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively.

Interest expense

Increased interest expense during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, reflects increased average outstanding borrowings in the comparable periods. We incurred incremental revolver and term loan borrowings in August 2019 to fund a significant acquisition and in February 2020 in connection with the Internalization. These borrowings were unhedged and bore interest at a variable rate based on LIBOR, which decreased from 1.76% at December 31, 2019 to 0.15% at September 30, 2020. As a result, we benefited from declining interest rates during the period of time they were outstanding. The borrowings were fully repaid in September 2020 with proceeds from our IPO. As of September 30, 2020, approximately $110.0 million of our borrowings remain unhedged.

46


 

Gain on sale of real estate

Our recognition of a gain or loss on the sale of real estate varies from transaction to transaction based on fluctuations in asset prices and demand in the real estate market. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, we recognized gains of $1.1 million on the sale of five properties, compared to gains of $12.6 million on the sale of 16 properties during the three months ended September 30, 2019. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we recognized gains of $9.7 million on the sale of 18 properties, compared to gains of $16.8 million on the sale of 25 properties during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Internalization expenses

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, we incurred $1.9 million and $3.5 million, respectively, of third-party fees and consulting expenses associated with the Internalization, compared to $0.9 million and $1.2 million of such expenses during three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively. We expect any incremental internalization expenses in the future to be limited to third party legal and accounting fees related to residual work in connection with the transaction.

Change in fair value of earnout liability

As part of the Internalization we may be required to pay additional earnout consideration if certain milestones are achieved during the Earnout Periods. We record the fair value of this contingent consideration in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and update the fair value at the end of each reporting period. To the extent the change in fair value relates to a portion of the earnout consideration that is classified as a liability, we record the change through earnings. We estimate the fair value of the earnout liability by considering weighted-average probabilities of likely outcomes, and using a Monte Carlo simulation and discounted cash flow analysis to estimate fair value. These estimates require the Company to make various assumptions about future share prices, and other items that are unobservable and are considered Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. The change in the fair value of the earnout liability during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, reflects the IPO stock price and changes in the peer stock price volatility assumption, which is attributable to changes in economic circumstances impacting global equity markets.

The decrease in net income for the three months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019, is primarily due to a $12.3 million increase in impairment charges, an $11.5 million decrease in gains on sale of real estate, and a $3.0 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense associated with a larger real estate portfolio. These factors were partially offset by revenue growth of $4.3 million and a $6.4 million decrease in the fair value of our earnout liability in 2020 with no comparable adjustment in the prior year. In addition, as a result of the Internalization, increased general and administrative expenses of $5.9 million were offset by $7.7 million lower asset management and property management fees. The decrease in net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019, is primarily due to a $24.5 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense, a $13.9 million increase in impairment charges, an $8.0 million increase in interest expense, a $7.0 million decrease in gains on sale of real estate, and a $2.3 million increase in internalization expenses. These factors were partially offset by revenue growth of $25.5 million and a $8.5 million decrease in the fair value of our earnout liability in 2020 with no comparable adjustment in the prior year. In addition, as a result of the Internalization, increased general and administrative expenses of $14.9 million were offset by $18.2 million lower asset management and property management fees.

GAAP net income includes items such as gain or loss on sale of real estate and provisions for impairment, among others, which can vary from quarter to quarter and impact period-over-period comparisons. These fluctuations, combined with the increase in our weighted average shares outstanding resulting from continued equity raises associated with our deleveraging plans subsequent to a significant acquisition in the third quarter of 2019 and the common shares and OP Units issued in conjunction with the IPO and Internalization, contributed to the $0.16 decrease in net earnings per diluted share for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and the $0.25 decrease in net earnings per diluted share for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

We acquire real estate using a combination of debt and equity capital and with cash from operations that is not otherwise distributed to our stockholders. Our focus is on maximizing the risk-adjusted return to our stockholders through an appropriate balance of debt and equity in our capital structure. We are committed to maintaining an investment grade balance sheet through active management of our

47


 

leverage profile and overall liquidity position. We believe our leverage model has allowed us to take advantage of the lower cost of debt while simultaneously strengthening our balance sheet, as evidenced by our investment grade credit rating of Baa3 from Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”), which was reaffirmed in July 2020. We manage our leverage profile using a ratio of Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre, a non-GAAP financial measure, which we believe is a useful measure of our ability to repay debt and a relative measure of leverage, and is used in communications with rating agencies regarding our credit rating. We seek to maintain on a sustained basis a Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre ratio that is generally less than 6.0x. As of September 30, 2020, we had total debt outstanding of $1,549.1 million and a Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre ratio of approximately 5.20x.

Net Debt and Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre are non-GAAP financial measures, and Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre is calculated based upon EBITDA, EBITDAre, and Adjusted EBITDAre, each of which is also a non-GAAP financial measure. Refer to Non-GAAP Measures below for further details concerning our calculation of non-GAAP measures and reconciliations to the comparable GAAP measure.

Liquidity/REIT Requirements

Liquidity is a measure of our ability to meet potential cash requirements, including our ongoing commitments to repay debt, fund our operations, acquire properties, make distributions to our stockholders, and other general business needs. As a REIT, we are required to distribute to our stockholders at least 90% of our REIT taxable income determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding net capital gain, on an annual basis. As a result, it is unlikely that we will be able to retain substantial cash balances to meet our long-term liquidity needs, including repayment of debt and the acquisition of additional properties, from our annual taxable income. Instead, we expect to meet our long-term liquidity needs primarily by relying upon external sources of capital.

Short-term Liquidity Requirements

Our short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for our operating expenses, including our general and administrative expenses as well as interest payments on our outstanding debt, and to pay distributions. We do not currently anticipate making significant capital expenditures or incurring other significant property costs because of the strong occupancy levels across our portfolio and the nature of our leases. We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements primarily from cash and cash equivalents balances and net cash provided by operating activities, supplemented by borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility.

Long-term Liquidity Requirements

Our long-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds necessary to repay debt and invest in additional revenue generating properties. Debt capital is provided through unsecured term notes, revolving debt facilities, and senior unsecured notes. Further, we anticipate access to the public unsecured bond market, which was historically largely unavailable to us, following our IPO.

The source and mix of our debt capital in the future will be impacted by market conditions as well as our continued focus on lengthening our debt maturity profile to better align with our portfolio’s lease terms, staggering debt maturities to reduce the risk that a significant amount of debt will mature in any single year in the future, and managing our exposure to interest rate risk.

We expect to meet our long-term liquidity requirements primarily from borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility, future debt and equity financings, and proceeds from limited sales of our properties. Our ability to access these capital sources may be impacted by unfavorable market conditions, particularly in the debt and equity capital markets, that are outside of our control. In addition, our success will depend on our operating performance, our borrowing restrictions, our degree of leverage, and other factors. Our acquisition growth strategy significantly depends on our ability to obtain acquisition financing on favorable terms. We seek to reduce the risk that long-term debt capital may be unavailable to us by strengthening our balance sheet by investing in real estate with creditworthy tenants and lease guarantors, and by maintaining an appropriate mix of debt and equity capitalization. We also, from time to time, obtain or assume non-recourse mortgage financing from banks and insurance companies secured by mortgages on the corresponding specific property. Mortgages, however, are not currently a strategic focus of the active management of our leverage profile.

Equity Capital Resources

On September 21, 2020, we completed our IPO and issued 33.5 million shares of stock for net proceeds of $532.3 million. We used $216.5 million of the net proceeds to fully repay the outstanding borrowings and accrued interest under our then existing revolving credit agreement and $240.2 million of the proceeds to fully repay the outstanding principal and accrued interest associated with an unsecured term loan. Subsequent to quarter end, on October 20, 2020, we received an additional $55.9 million in net proceeds as a result of the exercise in part by the underwriters of the IPO of their option to purchase additional shares at the IPO price of $17.00 per share.

48


 

Prior to the IPO, equity capital for our real estate acquisition activity was provided by proceeds from our private offering, including distributions reinvested through our DRIP. We suspended our private offering on January 10, 2020. Accordingly, we did not raise any equity through our private offering during the first nine months of 2020. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we raised approximately $5.9 million in equity capital through our DRIP. We announced on January 10, 2020 that we were terminating our DRIP, effective February 10, 2020.

Revolving Credit Facility

In connection with the IPO, in September 2020 we replaced our prior $600.0 million revolving credit facility with the $900.0 million Revolving Credit Facility that includes $20.0 million available for issuance of letters of credit. The Revolving Credit Facility has an initial maturity date of September 2023 and provides for two six-month extensions, at our election, subject to certain conditions set forth in the agreement and payment of a 0.0625% fee on the revolving commitments. The Revolving Credit Facility contains an applicable facility fee ranging between 0.125% and 0.30% per annum, based on our credit rating. Based on our current credit rating of Baa3, the facility fee is 0.25% per annum as of September 30, 2020. Borrowings on the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at variable rates based on LIBOR plus a margin based on our credit rating ranging between 0.825% and 1.55% per annum. Based on our current credit rating, the applicable margin is 1.20% as of September 30, 2020.

2022 Unsecured Term Loan

We entered into the 2022 Unsecured Term Loan to partially repay BRE debt that we assumed as part of the Internalization. Borrowings under the 2022 Unsecured Term Loan are subject to interest only payments at variable rates equal to LIBOR plus a margin based on our credit rating, ranging between 0.85% and 1.65% per annum. Based on our current credit rating, the applicable margin is 1.25% as of September 30, 2020.

2023 Unsecured Term Loan

The 2023 Unsecured Term loan has an initial maturity date of January 2023. Borrowings under the 2023 Unsecured Term Loan bear interest at variable rates based on LIBOR plus a margin based on our credit rating ranging between 0.90% and 1.75% per annum. Based on our current credit rating, the applicable margin is 1.35% as of September 30, 2020.

2024 Unsecured Term Loan

2026 Unsecured Term Loan

The 2026 Unsecured Term Loan includes an accordion feature that provides for an increase in the facility size up to a total of $550 million of available capacity. Borrowings under the 2026 Unsecured Term Loan are payable interest only on a monthly basis during the term of the loan, with the principal amount due in February 2026. Borrowings under the 2026 Unsecured Term loan bear interest equal to LIBOR plus a margin based on our credit rating ranging between 1.45% and 2.40% per annum. Based on our current credit rating, the applicable margin is 1.85% as of September 30, 2020.

Senior Notes

To mitigate interest rate risk and extend the tenor of a portion of our debt, we have strategically added unsecured, fixed-rate, interest-only senior promissory notes (“Senior Notes”) to our capital structure. The Senior Notes were issued in three series (Series A, B, and C) as described below.

Series A Notes

The Series A Notes are payable interest only semiannually during their term, bear interest at a fixed rate of 4.84% per annum, and mature on April 18, 2027.

Series B and Series C Notes

The Series B and Series C Notes are payable interest only semiannually during their term, and bear interest at fixed rates of 5.09% per annum and 5.19% per annum, respectively. The Series B Notes mature on July 2, 2028, and the Series C Notes mature on July 2, 2030.

 

Debt Covenants

We are subject to various covenants and financial reporting requirements pursuant to our debt facilities, which are summarized below. As of September 30, 2020, we believe we were in compliance with all of our covenants on all outstanding borrowings. In the event of default, either through default on payments or breach of covenants, we may be restricted from paying dividends to our stockholders in excess of dividends required to maintain our REIT qualification. For each of the previous three years, we paid dividends out of our cash flows from operations in excess of the distribution amounts required to maintain our REIT qualification. Refer to Recent Developments – COVID-19 Pandemic for additional discussion of the pandemic’s impact on our ability to satisfy our financial covenants.

The increase in net cash provided by operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019, was mainly due to growth in our real estate portfolio and cost savings associated with the Internalization.

50


 

The change in net cash provided by (used in) investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019, was mainly due to decreased acquisition volume, offset by cash paid in connection with the Internalization and decreased proceeds from the disposal of properties in 2020.

The change in net cash (used in) provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019, mainly reflects a net repayment of debt in 2020, compared to net borrowings in 2019, partially offset by increased proceeds from the sale of common stock.

Distributions and Distribution Reinvestment

In light of the economic uncertainty and rapidly evolving circumstances related to the COVID-19 pandemic and then-current tenant rent relief requests, to preserve cash, strengthen our liquidity position, and manage our overall leverage profile, in May 2020 our board of directors determined that we would temporarily suspend our monthly distribution. At its August 4, 2020 meeting, based on our strong collection results and second quarter operating performance, the board voted to reinstate a distribution, announcing that the Company would transition to quarterly distribution payments beginning with the quarter ended September 30, 2020. The board set a $0.135 distribution per common share and OP Unit to stockholders and OP Unit holders of record as of September 30, 2020, which was paid on October 15, 2020. At its November 5, 2020 meeting, the board set a $0.25 distribution per common share and OP Unit to stockholders and OP Unit holders of record as of December 31, 2020, payable on or before January 15, 2021.

We terminated our DRIP and share redemption program, effective February 10, 2020. Prior to its termination, pursuant to the terms of our DRIP, stockholders and OP Unit holders (other than us) could elect to have cash distributions reinvested in additional shares of our common stock. Shares of our common stock acquired through our DRIP have the same rights and are subject to the same restrictions on transferability as all other shares of our common stock.

The following table summarizes distributions paid in cash and pursuant to our DRIP for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 (in thousands).

We intend to fund future distributions from cash generated by operations; however, we may fund distributions from the sale of assets, borrowings, or proceeds from the sale of our securities.

Impact of Inflation

The leases in our portfolio are long-term in nature, with a current ABR weighted average remaining lease term of 10.8 years as of September 30, 2020. Our rental revenues may be impacted by inflation. Substantially all of our leases have contractual lease escalations, with an ABR weighted average of 2.1% as of September 30, 2020. Many of our leases contain rent escalators that increase rent at a fixed amount and may not be sufficient during periods of high inflation. Leases that contributed approximately 15.8% of our ABR as of September 30, 2020, contained rent escalators based on increases in CPI and the associated increases in rental revenue may be limited during periods of low inflation. The impact of inflation on our property and operating expenses is limited since substantially all of our leases are net leases, and property-level expenses are generally paid by our tenants. To the extent we bear the cost of such expense, we attempt to limit our exposure to inflation through the use of warranties and other remedies that reduce the likelihood of a significant capital outlay. Inflation and increased costs may also have an adverse impact to our tenants and their creditworthiness if the increase in property-level expenses is greater than their increase in revenues.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We had no off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2020, or December 31, 2019.

(a)

We may extend the Revolving Credit Facility twice, each for a six-month period, subject to certain conditions, including the payment of an extension fee equal to 0.0625% of the revolving commitments.

(b)

Interest expense is projected based on the outstanding borrowings and interest rates in effect as of September 30, 2020. This amount includes the impact of interest rate swap agreements.

(c)

We expect to pay tenant improvement allowances out of cash flows from operations or from additional borrowings.

At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, investment in rental property of $174.6 million and $178.7 million, respectively, was pledged as collateral against our mortgages and notes payable.

Additionally, we are a party to three separate tax protection agreements with the contributing members of three distinct UPREIT transactions and we entered into the Founding Owners’ Tax Protection Agreement with our founding owners in connection with the Internalization. The tax protection agreements require us to indemnify the beneficiaries in the event of a sale, exchange, transfer, or other disposal of the contributed property, or in the case of the Founding Owners’ Tax Protection Agreement, the entire Company, in a taxable transaction that would cause such beneficiaries to recognize a gain that is protected under the agreements, subject to certain exceptions. Based on values as of September 30, 2020, taxable sales of the applicable properties would trigger liability under the four agreements of approximately $22.3 million. Based on information available, we do not believe that the events resulting in damages as detailed above have occurred or are likely to occur in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, we have excluded these commitments from the contractual commitments table above.

Non-GAAP Measures

FFO and AFFO

We compute FFO in accordance with the standards established by the Board of Governors of Nareit, the worldwide representative voice for REITs and publicly traded real estate companies with an interest in the U.S. real estate and capital markets. Nareit defines FFO as GAAP net income or loss adjusted to exclude net gains (losses) from sales of certain depreciated real estate assets, depreciation and amortization expense from real estate assets, gains and losses from change in control, and impairment charges related to certain previously depreciated real estate assets. To derive Adjusted Funds From Operations (“AFFO”), we modify the Nareit computation of FFO to include other adjustments to GAAP net income related to certain non-cash and non-recurring revenues and expenses, including straight-line rents, cost of debt extinguishments, amortization of lease intangibles, amortization of debt issuance costs, amortization of net mortgage premiums, (gain) loss on interest rate swaps and other non-cash interest expense, realized gains or losses on foreign currency transactions, internalization expenses, stock-based compensation expense, severance, extraordinary items, and other specified non-cash items. We believe that such items are not a result of normal operations and thus we believe excluding such items assists management and investors in distinguishing whether changes in our operations are due to growth or decline of operations at our properties or from other factors.

Our leases include cash rents that increase over the term of the lease to compensate us for anticipated increases in market rentals over time. Our leases do not include significant front-loading or back-loading of payments, or significant rent-free periods. Therefore, we find it useful to evaluate rent on a contractual basis as it allows for comparison of existing rental rates to market rental rates. In situations where we have granted short-term rent deferrals as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and such deferrals are probable of collection and expected to be repaid within a short term, we will continue to recognize the same amount of GAAP lease revenues each period. The amounts temporarily deferred are recorded in tenant receivables until they are repaid. Consistent with GAAP lease revenues, the short-term deferrals associated with COVID-19 will not impact our AFFO.

We further exclude contingent consideration expense (income), costs or gains recorded on the extinguishment of debt, non-cash interest expense and gains, the amortization of debt issuance costs, net mortgage premiums, and lease intangibles, realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions, internalization expenses, stock-based compensation expense and severance, as these items are not indicative of ongoing operational results. We use AFFO as a measure of our performance when we formulate corporate goals.

FFO is used by management, investors, and analysts to facilitate meaningful comparisons of operating performance between periods and among our peers, primarily because it excludes the effect of real estate depreciation and amortization and net gains on sales, which are based on historical costs and implicitly assume that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time, rather than fluctuating based on existing market conditions. We believe that AFFO is a useful supplemental measure for investors to consider because it will help them to better assess our operating performance without the distortions created by non-cash revenues or expenses. FFO and AFFO may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other REITs, and comparisons of our FFO and AFFO with the same or similar measures disclosed by other REITs may not be meaningful.

Neither the SEC nor any other regulatory body has passed judgment on the acceptability of the adjustments to FFO that we use to calculate AFFO. In the future, the SEC, Nareit or another regulatory body may decide to standardize the allowable adjustments across the REIT industry and in response to such standardization we may have to adjust our calculation and characterization of AFFO accordingly.

EBITDA, EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDAre and Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre

We compute EBITDA as earnings before interest, income taxes and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is a measure commonly used in our industry. We believe that this ratio provides investors and analysts with a measure of our performance that includes our operating results unaffected by the differences in capital structures, capital investment cycles and useful life of related assets compared to other companies in our industry. We compute EBITDAre in accordance with the definition adopted by Nareit, as EBITDA excluding gains (loss) from the sales of depreciable property and provisions for impairment on investment in real estate. We believe EBITDA and EBITDAre are useful to investors and analysts because they provide important supplemental information about our operating performance exclusive of certain non-cash and other costs. EBITDA and EBITDAre are not measures of financial performance under GAAP, and our EBITDA and EBITDAre may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. You should not consider our EBITDA and EBITDAre as alternatives to net income or cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP.

As we fund new acquisitions initially using our unsecured Revolving Credit Facility, our leverage profile and Net Debt (defined below) are immediately impacted by current quarter acquisitions. However, the full benefit of EBITDAre from newly acquired properties is not received in the same quarter in which the properties are acquired. Additionally, EBITDAre for the quarter includes amounts generated by properties that have been sold during the quarter. Accordingly, the variability in EBITDAre caused by the timing of our acquisitions and dispositions can temporarily distort our leverage ratios. We adjust EBITDAre (“Adjusted EBITDAre”) for the most recently completed quarter (i) to recalculate as if all acquisitions and dispositions had occurred at the beginning of the quarter, (ii) to exclude certain GAAP income and expense amounts that are either non-cash, such as cost of debt extinguishments or the change in fair value of our earnout liability, or that we believe are one time, or unusual in nature because they relate to unique circumstances or transactions that had not previously occurred and which we do not anticipate occurring in the future, and (iii) to eliminate the impact of lease termination fees, which are not a result of normal operations. We then annualize quarterly Adjusted EBITDAre by multiplying it by four (“Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre”). You should not unduly rely on this measure as it is based on assumptions and estimates that may prove to be inaccurate. Our actual reported EBITDAre for future periods may be significantly different from our Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre. Adjusted EBITDAre and Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre are not measurements of performance under GAAP, and our Adjusted EBITDAre and Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. You should not consider our Adjusted EBITDAre and Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre as alternatives to net income or cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP.

Net Debt to Annualized EBITDAre and Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre

We define Net Debt as our gross debt (total reported debt plus deferred financing costs) less cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. We believe that the presentation of Net Debt to Annualized EBITDAre and Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre is useful to investors and analysts because these ratios provide information about gross debt less cash and cash equivalents, which could be useful to repay debt, compared to our performance as measured using EBITDAre. The following table reconciles total debt (which is the most comparable GAAP measure) to Net Debt, and presents the ratio of Net Debt to Annualized EBITDAre and Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre, respectively:

Critical Accounting Policies

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based upon our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses as well as other disclosures in the financial statements. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates and assumptions; however, actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions, which in turn could have a material impact on our financial statements. A summary of our significant accounting policies and procedures are included in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We believe there have been no significant changes during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

For information on the impact of recent accounting pronouncements on our business, see Note 2 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to certain market risks, one of the most predominant of which is a change in interest rates. Increases in interest rates can result in increased interest expense under our Revolving Credit Facility and other variable-rate debt. Increases in interest rates can also result in increased interest expense when our fixed rate debt matures and needs to be refinanced. We attempt to manage interest rate risk by entering into long-term fixed rate debt or by entering into interest rate swaps to convert certain variable-rate debt to a fixed rate. The interest rate swaps have been designated by us as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes and are reported at fair value. We have not entered, and do not intend to enter, into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes. Further information concerning our interest rate swaps can be found in Note 11 in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Our fixed-rate debt includes our Senior Notes, mortgages, and variable-rate debt converted to a fixed rate with the use of interest rate swaps. Our fixed-rate debt and outstanding interest rate swaps had carrying values and fair values of approximately $1.4 billion and $1.6 billion, respectively, as of September 30, 2020. Changes in market interest rates impact the fair value of our fixed-rate debt and interest rate swaps, but they have no impact on interest incurred or on cash flows. For instance, if interest rates were to increase 1%, and the fixed-rate debt balance were to remain constant, we would expect the fair value of our debt to decrease, similar to how the price of a bond decreases as interest rates rise. A 1% increase in market interest rates would have resulted in a decrease in the fair value of our fixed-rate debt and interest rate swaps of approximately $82.6 million as of September 30, 2020.

Borrowings pursuant to our Revolving Credit Facility and other variable-rate debt bear interest at rates based on LIBOR plus an applicable margin, and totaled $969.8 million as of September 30, 2020, of which $859.8 million was swapped to a fixed rate by our use of interest rate swaps. Taking into account the effect of our interest rate swaps, interest expense would have increased by approximately $4.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2020, if the applicable LIBOR rate had been 1% higher.

With the exception of our interest rate swap transactions, we have not engaged in transactions in derivative financial instruments or derivative commodity instruments.

As of September 30, 2020, our financial instruments were not exposed to significant market risk due to foreign currency exchange risk.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As of and for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and were operating at a reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

57


 

Part II – OTHER INFORMATION

We are subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of our business. These matters are generally covered by insurance or are subject to our right to be indemnified by our tenants that we include in our leases. Management is not aware of any material pending legal proceedings to which we or any of our subsidiaries are a party or to which any of our property is subject, nor are we aware of any such legal proceedings contemplated by government agencies.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors.

The risk factors relating to or impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak that were previously disclosed in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2020 contained certain financial-related information which has been updated for the three months ended September 30, 2020 in Part I, Item 2, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 2.Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds from Registered Securities.

Sales of Common Stock and Issuance of OP Units

None.

Awards of Restricted Stock

On August 4, 2020, we entered into restricted stock award agreements for an aggregate of 340,963 shares of Common Stock of the Company (the “2020 Restricted Stock Awards”), which were valued at approximately $7.0 million or $20.50 per common share, with our named executive officers and certain other key employees. The awards were issued under the terms of the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan, and the grants had been approved by the Compensation Committee. The grants to the named executive officers, which were made pursuant to the terms of our named executive officers’ employment agreements, included (i) restricted stock grants that vest in substantially equal installments on each of the first four anniversaries of the completion of the Internalization, which represents 40% of the total award value for each participant, and (ii) restricted stock grants that vest in substantially equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the completion of the Internalization, which represents 60% of the total award value for each participant. The grants to other key employees vest 40% on the first anniversary of the Internalization, 30% on the second anniversary of the Internalization, 20% on the third anniversary of the Internalization, and 10% on the fourth anniversary of the Internalization. The restricted stock award agreements provide that vesting is subject to the executive’s continued employment with the Company through each applicable vesting date, except in the event of the executive’s death or disability, in which case, any unvested portion of the awards will become fully vested. In addition, the restricted stock award agreements provide the executive with rights as a stockholder in respect of the awards’ vested and unvested shares, including the right to vote and the right to dividends. In the event of a termination of the executive’s employment by the Company without “Cause” or by the executive for “Good Reason” within 12 months following a “Change in Control” of the Company (as such terms are defined in the executive’s employment agreement), any unvested portion of the 2020 Restricted Stock Awards will become fully vested at the time of such termination, provided that if the 2020 Restricted Stock Awards are unvested at the time of a Change in Control of the Company and are not assumed or substituted for equivalent awards as part of the Change in Control transaction, the 2020 Restricted Stock Awards will become fully vested at the time of the Change in Control transaction. Under the terms of the 2020 Restricted Stock Awards, the Company shall be entitled, at its option and in addition to any other available remedies, to terminate the Shares in respect of the 2020 Restricted Stock Awards (including any vested Shares) if the executive materially violates the terms of any restrictive covenant agreement between the Company and the executive or if the executive is convicted of a felony against the Company or its affiliates.

The aforementioned securities were issued in reliance on the exemption set forth in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

Use of Proceeds from Initial Public Offering

In September 2020, the Company issued and sold 33,500,000 shares of Class A Common Stock in an IPO, at a public offering price of $17.00 per share and on October 20, 2020 the Company issued and sold an additional 3,500,000 shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to the partial exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option to purchase additional shares at the same public offering price.

58


 

The offer and sale of all the shares in the IPO, inclusive of the underwriters' partial exercise of their over-allotment option, were registered under the Securities Act pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333-240381), as amended, which was declared effective by the SEC on September 16, 2020. J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, BMO Capital Markets Corp., Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Capital One Securities, Inc. and Truist Securities, Inc. acted as joint book-running managers for the offering. The IPO commenced on September 16, 2020 and terminated upon the closing of the sale of shares to the underwriters pursuant to their partial exercise of their over-allotment option on October 20, 2020. Upon completion of the IPO, inclusive of the underwriters' partial exercise of their over-allotment option, we received approximately $588.2 million in net proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses payable by us of approximately $3.0 million. No payments for any expenses were made directly or indirectly to (i) any of our officers or directors or their associates, (ii) any persons owning 10% or more of any class of our equity securities or (iii) any of our affiliates.

There has been no material change in the expected use of the net proceeds from our IPO as described in our final prospectus, dated September 16, 2020, filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) relating to our registration statement on Form S-11 filed on September 17, 2020.

Repurchases of Equity Securities

We had previously adopted a share redemption program to provide an opportunity for our stockholders to have shares of our common stock repurchased, at the end of each quarter, subject to certain restrictions and limitations, at a price equal to or at a discount from the current Determined Share Value in effect as of the date the shares were tendered for redemption. Cash used to fund share redemptions had historically been provided through a combination of cash generated by operations, the sale of assets, and borrowings. On January 10, 2020, we announced that we terminated our share redemption program, effective as of February 10, 2020. Consequently, there were no redemptions of shares of our common stock during the three months ended September 30, 2020.
