LANDMARK APARTMENT TRUST OF AMERICA, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2014 and 2013

The use of the words “the Company,” “we,” “us,” “our company,” or “our” refers to Landmark Apartment Trust of America, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including Landmark Apartment Trust of America Holdings, LP, except where the context otherwise requires.

1. Organization and Description of Business

Landmark Apartment Trust of America, Inc., a Maryland corporation, was incorporated on December 21, 2005. We conduct substantially all of our operations through Landmark Apartment Trust of America Holdings, LP, or our operating partnership. We are in the business of acquiring, holding and managing a diverse portfolio of quality apartment communities with stable cash flows and growth potential in select metropolitan areas in the Southern United States. We may also acquire and have acquired other real estate-related investments. We focus primarily on investments that produce current income. We are self-administered and self-managed in that we provide our own investment, administrative and management services internally through our own employees. We have qualified and elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, for federal income tax purposes, and we intend to continue to be taxed as a REIT.

As of June 30, 2014, we consolidated 78 apartment communities, including seven properties held through consolidated joint ventures, and two parcels of undeveloped land with an aggregate of 24,045 apartment units, which had an aggregate gross carrying value of $1.9 billion. We refer to these properties as our consolidated owned properties. We hold a non-controlling interest in two apartment communities with an aggregate of 750 apartment units which are accounted for under the equity method. We also serve as the third-party manager for an additional 23 properties which have an aggregate of 7,984 apartment units. We refer to these as our managed properties. We have an indirect ownership interest in eight of those managed properties through our investment in Timbercreek Holding L.P. (as defined in Note 5, Investments in Unconsolidated Entities). Our managed properties are managed by ATA Property Management, LLC, or our Property Manager, which includes the assets of the property management business of Elco Landmark Residential Management, LLC and certain of its affiliates, including Elco Landmark Residential Holdings, or ELRH, which we acquired in 2013, or the ELRM Transaction.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the twelve month period ending December 31, 2014.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation due to the breakout of preferred dividends from interest expense, net to preferred dividends classified as interest expense and the breakout of the change in fair value of preferred stock derivatives/warrants and acquisition contingent consideration from general, administrative and other expense in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations.

Income Taxes

We have qualified and elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code for federal income tax purposes, and we intend to continue to be taxed as a REIT. To qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to pay distributions to our stockholders of at least 90% of our annual taxable income, excluding net capital gains. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal income tax on net income that we distribute to our stockholders. We are subject to state and local income taxes in some jurisdictions, and in certain circumstances, we may also be subject to federal excise taxes on undistributed income. In addition, certain of our activities must be conducted by subsidiaries that elect to be treated as a taxable REIT subsidiary, or a TRS. A TRS is subject to both federal and state income taxes.

Our Property Manager is organized as a TRS and, accordingly, is subject to income taxation. Our Property Manager has incurred taxable losses since inception and did not have an income tax provision or benefit prior to December 31, 2012 due to the recording of a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets. During the first quarter of 2013, we evaluated the ability to realize our deferred tax asset, which was previously offset by a full valuation allowance. Due to a deferred tax liability resulting from the ELRM Transaction, we determined it is more likely than not that our deferred tax asset will be realized. Accordingly, an income tax benefit of

Table of Contents

$286,000 and $3.1 million was recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, which includes a reversal of the prior valuation allowance of $2.7 million. An income tax (expense)/benefit of $(220,000) and $223,000 was recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, which includes state income tax expense of $212,000 for each of those periods.

As of March 31, 2014, our deferred tax assets were approximately equal to our deferred tax liabilities. Due to the history of losses incurred by the Property Manager, additional deferred tax assets that were created in the quarter ended June 30, 2014, were, therefore, offset by a valuation allowance. It is expected that any future net deferred tax assets will be offset by a valuation allowance until the Property Manager becomes consistently profitable. Total net operating loss carry forward for federal income tax purposes was approximately $4.2 million as of June 30, 2014. The net operating loss carry forward will expire beginning 2031.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, or ASU 2014-08, which incorporates a requirement that a disposition represent a strategic shift in an entity’s operations into the definition of a discontinued operation. In accordance with ASU 2014-08, a discontinued operation represents (i) a component of an entity or group of components that has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale in a single transaction and represents a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on an entity’s financial results, or (ii) an acquired business that is classified as held for sale on the date of acquisition. A strategic shift could include a disposal of (i) a separate major line of business, (ii) a separate major geographic area of operations, (iii) a major equity method investment, or (iv) other major parts of an entity. The standard requires prospective application and will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014 with early adoption permitted. The standard is not applied to components of an entity that were sold or classified as held for sale prior to the adoption of the standard.

We have elected to adopt this standard early, effective January 1, 2014, which primarily has the impact of reflecting gains and losses on the sale of operating properties prospectively within continuing operations, and results in not classifying the operations of such operating properties as discontinued operations in all periods presented. Subsequent to our adoption of ASU 2014-08, the sale of real estate that does not meet the definition of a discontinued operation under the standard will be included in gain on sale of operating properties in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we sold two apartment communities which were subject to the early adoption of ASU 2014-08 and, therefore, the gain on such sale is reported as a gain on sale of operating properties within continuing operations. During the year ended December 31, 2013, we sold two of our apartment communities which were not subject to the early adoption of ASU 2014-08 and, therefore, the gain on such sales and results of operations prior to such sales are reported as discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations.

In May 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which is a revenue recognition standard that will result in companies recognizing revenue from contracts when control for the service or product that is the subject of the contract is transferred from the seller to the buyer. We will be required to apply the new standard in the first quarter of 2017 and are assessing whether the new standard will have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

4. Real Estate Disposition Activities

As of June 30, 2014, we had one apartment community, Lofton Meadows, classified as held for sale. We have entered into a purchase and sale agreement for this apartment community with an unaffiliated third party and we expect to close on the sale of this apartment community in the second half of 2014.

During the three months ended June 30, 2014, we sold two apartment communities, Manchester Park on May 28, 2014 and Bay Breeze Villas on June 30, 2014, totaling 306 apartment units for a combined sales price of $29.3 million. Our gain on the sale of the apartment communities was $7 million.

The operations for any real estate assets sold from January 1, 2013 through December 31, 2013, have been presented as income from discontinued operations in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. Accordingly, certain reclassifications have been made to prior years to reflect discontinued operations consistent with current year presentation. As previously disclosed in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K, we sold two apartment communities with an aggregate of 700 apartment units for a combined sales price of $71.7 million during 2013.

(1) On February 6, 2014, we purchased a controlling interest in Landmark at Spring Creek and, therefore, consolidated this apartment community in our condensed consolidated financial statements. Prior to our consolidation, the Landmark at Spring Creek property was owned by unaffiliated third parties and leased by our wholly owned subsidiary, NNN Mission Residential Holdings, LLC, or NNN/MR Holdings. Pursuant to the master lease or other operative agreement between NNN/MR Holdings and the respective third party property owners, our NNN/MR Holdings was entitled to a disposition fee in the event that the leased property was sold. We recognized this as a disposition fee rights intangible of $284,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013. Upon our acquisition of a controlling interest of Landmark at Spring Creek, we waived the disposition fee from the sellers of the controlling interest and, therefore, wrote off the full amount of the disposition fee rights intangible to general, administrative and other expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations during the first quarter of 2014.

As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had below market lease intangibles, net of $201,000 and $870,000, respectively, which are classified as a liability in security deposits, prepaid rent and other liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We amortize our below market lease intangibles on a straight-line basis over the average remaining term of the in-place leases at the time of acquisition as an increase to rental income.

Amortization expense recorded on the identified intangible assets, net for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was $8.7 million and $4.7 million, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was $26.4 million and $9.3 million, respectively.

Credit Facility

The Credit Facility is in the aggregate maximum principal amount of $130 million and, subject to certain terms and conditions, can be increased by up to an additional $50 million upon approval from the lender and holders of our 8.75% Series D Cumulative Non-Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, or our Series D Preferred Stock, and our 9.25% Series E Cumulative Non-Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, or our Series E Preferred Stock. The amount available under the Credit Facility is based on the lesser of the following: (i) the aggregate commitments of all lenders and (ii) a percentage of the appraised value for all collateral properties. As of June 30, 2014, we had $160.7 million outstanding under the Credit Facility with $19.3 million available to be drawn on the incremental facility and 13 of our properties pledged as collateral.

The Credit Facility will mature on March 7, 2015, subject to an extension of the maturity date to March 7, 2016 if certain conditions are satisfied, which would have to be assessed at that time. Pursuant to the terms of the credit agreement governing the terms of the Credit Facility, we and certain of our indirect subsidiaries guaranteed all of the obligations of our operating partnership and each other guarantor under the credit agreement and the related loan documents. From time to time, our operating partnership may cause additional subsidiaries to become guarantors under the credit agreement.

All borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at an annual rate equal to, at our option, (i) the highest of (A) the federal funds rate, plus one-half of 1% and a margin that fluctuates based on our debt yield, (B) the rate of interest as publicly announced from time to time by Bank of America, N.A. as its prime rate, plus a margin that fluctuates based on our debt yield or (C) the Eurodollar Rate (as defined in the credit agreement) for a one-month interest period plus 1% and a margin that fluctuates based upon our debt yield or (ii) the Eurodollar Rate (as defined in the credit agreement) plus a margin that fluctuates based upon our debt yield. As of June 30, 2014, our current annual interest rate was 2.90% on principal outstanding of $160.7 million, which represents the Eurodollar Rate, based on a one-month interest period plus a margin of 2.75%. We are required by the terms of the Credit Facility to meet certain financial covenants, such as minimum net worth and liquidity amounts, and comply with certain financial reporting requirements. As of June 30, 2014, we were in compliance with all such requirements.

Line of Credit

On January 22, 2014, we entered into an agreement with Bank Hapoalim, as lender, for a revolving line of credit in the aggregate principal amount of up to $10 million to be used for our working capital and general corporate purposes. Our revolving line of credit will mature on January 22, 2015, subject to an extension of the maturity date to January 22, 2016 if certain conditions are satisfied, which would have to be assessed at that time. We have pledged $1.5 million in cash and equity interest in certain of our subsidiaries as collateral. As of June 30, 2014, we had $3.9 million outstanding under our revolving line of credit with $6.1 million available to be drawn. Our revolving line of credit bears an annual interest rate equal to the Eurodollar Rate plus a 3.00% margin. As of June 30, 2014, our current annual interest rate was 3.15% on principal outstanding of $3.9 million.

Deferred Financing Cost, Net

As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had $13.8 million and $14.5 million, respectively, in deferred financing costs, net of accumulated amortization. Accumulated amortization was $7.7 million and $4.4 million as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

Loss on Debt Extinguishment

The initial Credit Facility proceeds were used, in part, to refinance existing mortgage loan payables during the quarter ended March 31, 2013. Certain of the refinanced mortgage loan payables were subject to prepayment penalties and write off of unamortized deferred financing costs that totaled $684,000 during the quarter ended March 31, 2013.

8. Preferred Stock and Warrants to Purchase Common Stock

Series D Preferred Stock

As of June 30, 2014, we had issued an aggregate of 20,976,300 shares of our Series D Preferred Stock to iStar Apartment Holdings LLC, or iStar, and BREDS II Q Landmark LLC, or BREDS, at a price of $10.00 per share. Holders of our Series D Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative cash dividends of 14.47% per annum, compounded monthly. A portion of the cumulative cash dividend equal to 8.75% per annum compounded monthly, or the Series D Current Dividend, is payable in cash on the 15th day of each month while the remaining amount is accrued and must be paid prior to the redemption of the Series D Preferred Stock. We may, however, elect to pay up to the full amount of accrued dividends on each dividend payment date. Our failure to pay in full, in cash, any Series D Current Dividend on any applicable payment date will constitute an event of default, which could result in the dividend rate being increased to 19.97% per annum, of which 11% per annum compounded monthly will be due as the Series D Current Dividend on the 15th of each month. Series D Preferred Stock dividends are recorded as preferred dividends classified as interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013,

Table of Contents

we incurred preferred dividends classified as interest expense of $7.9 million and $68,000, respectively, related to the Series D Preferred Stock. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we incurred preferred dividends classified as interest expense of $15.6 million and $68,000, respectively, related to the Series D Preferred Stock.

In addition to other preferential rights upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our affairs, each holder of Series D Preferred Stock is entitled to receive liquidating distributions in cash in an amount equal to $10.00 per share plus any accrued and unpaid dividends due under the agreement before any distribution or payment is made to the holders of our common stock upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our affairs. Also, pursuant to the protective provisions of the agreements designating the Series D Preferred Stock, or the Series D Preferred Stock agreements, we may not, without the prior written consent of iStar and BREDS, take certain corporate actions, including, but not limited to, amending our charter or bylaws or entering into material contracts.

We are required to redeem all outstanding shares of Series D Preferred Stock on June 28, 2016, subject to a one-year extension, for a cash payment to the holders of the Series D Preferred Stock in an amount per share equal to $10.00 plus any accrued and unpaid dividends due pursuant to the Series D Preferred Stock agreements. Based on the requirement of redemption for cash, the Series D Preferred Stock is classified as a liability in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Failure to redeem the Series D Preferred Stock by any mandatory redemption date (as extended) will trigger increases in dividends due. If an event of default occurs on our mortgage loan payables, the Credit Facility or other indebtedness and is continuing after an applicable cure period, there will then be an event of default on the Series D Preferred Stock.

In addition, in the event of a triggering event as described in the Series D Preferred Stock agreements, we are obligated to redeem not less than 50% of the shares of the Series D Preferred Stock then outstanding, at a certain premium. This redemption feature meets the requirements to be accounted for separately as a derivative financial instrument. We measured the fair value of this derivative at the issuance date and recorded a liability for approximately $13.5 million with a corresponding discount recorded to the value of the Series D Preferred Stock. The Series D Preferred Stock discount is accreted to its face value through the redemption date as interest expense. Interest expense recorded for the accretion of the Series D Preferred Stock discount for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was $1 million and $2 million, respectively. Interest expense recorded for the accretion of the Series D Preferred Stock discount for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 was not significant for either period.

As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the fair value of this derivative was $6.3 million and $11.1 million, respectively. The derivative is recorded at fair value for each reporting period, with changes in fair value being recorded through change in fair value of preferred stock derivatives/warrants and acquisition contingent consideration in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the decrease in fair value was $5.7 million and $4.8 million, respectively. The decrease in fair value was due to changes in assumptions used in the valuation of the derivative, primarily, the anticipated timing of the listing of our common shares on a public exchange. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, there was no change in the fair value. The Series D Preferred Stock and the derivative are presented together in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as Series D cumulative non-convertible redeemable preferred stock with derivative in the amount of $206.5 million and $209.3 million as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. See Note 13, Fair Value of Derivatives and Financial Instruments, for further discussion of our fair valuation on a recurring basis.

Series E Preferred Stock

On January 7, 2014, we issued and sold, for cash, an aggregate of 6,800,000 shares of our Series E Preferred Stock, a new series of our preferred stock, to iStar and BREDS at a price of $10.00 per share, for an aggregate of $68 million. On June 4, 2014, in accordance with the terms of the Series E Preferred Stock agreements (as defined below), we issued and sold, for cash, an aggregate of 600,000 additional shares of our Series E Preferred Stock to iStar and BREDS at a price of $10.00 per share, for an aggregate of $6 million. The proceeds from the sale of the Series E Preferred Stock have been used primarily to acquire and renovate additional apartment communities. As of June 30, 2014, we had issued an aggregate of 7,400,000 shares of Series E Preferred Stock.

Holders of our Series E Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative cash dividends of 14.47% per annum, compounded monthly. A portion of the cumulative cash dividend equal to 9.25% per annum compounded monthly, or the Series E Current Dividend, is payable in cash on the 15th day of each month while the remaining amount is accrued and must be paid prior to the redemption of the Series E Preferred Stock. We may, however, elect to pay up to the full amount of accrued dividends on each dividend payment date. Our failure to pay in full, in cash, any Series E Current Dividend on any applicable payment date will constitute an event of default, which could result in the dividend rate being increased to 19.97% per annum, of which 11% per annum compounded monthly will be due as the Series E Current Dividend on the 15th of each month. Series E Preferred Stock dividends are recorded as preferred dividends classified as interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, we incurred preferred dividends classified as interest expense of $2.6 million and $4.9 million, respectively, related to the Series E Preferred Stock. We did not record preferred dividends classified as interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, as there were no shares of Series E Preferred Stock outstanding for such periods.

The Series E Preferred Stock discount is accreted to its face value through the redemption date as interest expense. Interest expense recorded for the accretion of the Series E Preferred Stock discount for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was $535,000 and $1.1 million, respectively. We did not record accretion expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, as there were no shares of Series E Preferred Stock outstanding for such periods.

The derivative is recorded at fair value for each reporting period, with changes in fair value being recorded through change in fair value of preferred stock derivatives/warrants and acquisition contingent consideration in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. As of June 30, 2014, the fair value of this derivative was $4.6 million, and accordingly, the decrease in fair value for the three and six months ended was $2 million and $1.4 million, respectively. The decrease in fair value was due to changes in assumptions used in the valuation of the derivative, primarily, the anticipated timing of the listing of our common shares on a public exchange. The Series E Preferred Stock and the derivative are presented together in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as Series E cumulative non-convertible redeemable preferred stock with derivative in the amount of $73.7 million as of June 30, 2014.

Warrants to Purchase Common Stock

In connection with the issuances of our Series A Cumulative Non-Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock, or our Series A Preferred Stock, and our Series B Cumulative Non-Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock, or our Series B Preferred Stock, which were redeemed in 2013, we issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 6,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price per share of common stock equal to: (i) $9.00 if the warrants are being exercised in connection with a “change of control” (as such term is defined in the form of warrant); or (ii) the greater of (A) $9.00 and (B) 80% of the public offering price of our common stock in our first underwritten public offering, in conjunction with which our common stock becomes listed for trading on the New York Stock Exchange, if the warrants are being exercised during the 60-day period following such underwritten public offering. The warrants remained outstanding subsequent to the redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock and will become exercisable at any time and from time to time prior to their expiration following the completion of an underwritten public offering or in connection with a change of control. In general, the August 3, 2012 and February 27, 2013 warrants will immediately expire and cease to be exercisable upon the earliest to occur of: (i) the close of business on the later of August 3, 2015; (ii) the close of business on the date that is 60 days after the completion of the underwritten public offering (or the next succeeding business day); (iii) the consummation of a “Qualified Company Acquisition” (as such term is defined in the form of warrant); and (iv) the cancellation of the warrants by our company, at its option or at the option of the warrant holder, in connection with a change of control (other than a Qualified Company Acquisition).

The fair value of the warrants as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $566,000 and $1.8 million, respectively, and is reflected in security deposits, prepaid rent and other liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The warrants are recorded at fair value for each reporting period with changes in fair value being recorded in change in fair value of preferred stock derivatives/warrants and acquisition contingent consideration in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we recorded $473,000 and $323,050, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we recorded $1.2 million and $361,000, respectively, related to decreases in the fair value of the warrants.

Loss on Preferred Stock Extinguishment

As of June 28, 2013, in connection with the redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock, we incurred a $9.5 million loss on preferred stock extinguishment consisting of $6.4 million in prepayment penalties, a write off in the amount of $2.5 million in unamortized loan accretion and deferred financing costs and $600,000 in redemption fees, which are recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations in loss on debt and preferred stock extinguishment.

9. Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

We are not aware of any material pending legal proceedings other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to our business.

Environmental Matters

We follow a policy of monitoring our properties for the presence of hazardous or toxic substances. While there can be no assurance that a material environmental liability does not exist at our properties, we are not currently aware of any environmental liability with respect to our properties that would have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Further, we are not aware of any material environmental liability or any unasserted claim or assessment with respect to an environmental liability that we believe would require additional disclosure or the recording of a loss contingency.

Acquisition Contingent Consideration

ELRM Transaction

We incurred certain contingent consideration in connection with the ELRM Transaction during the first quarter of 2013. In consideration for the contribution to our operating partnership of ELRH’s economic rights to earn property management fees for managing certain real estate assets, our operating partnership agreed to issue up to $10 million in restricted limited partnership units to ELRH. Additionally, ELRH and certain of its affiliates have the opportunity to earn additional consideration in the form of restricted limited partnership units and a promissory note through a contingent consideration arrangement, which is based on projected fees that we would earn in connection with new property management agreements for properties that may be acquired by ELRH and certain of its affiliates. We recorded an estimated fair value of $6.7 million for this contingent consideration on March 14, 2013, which was recorded in acquisition contingent consideration in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2013. During the year ended December 31, 2013, this liability was reduced by $2 million for achieving the contingency and by an adjustment to the fair value calculation of $715,000. We issued $1.1 million in restricted limited partnership units and we issued promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $284,000 to settle a portion of the achieved contingency. The remaining $568,000 in achieved contingencies is recorded in other payables due to affiliates in our condensed consolidated balance sheets and will be paid 50% in restricted limited partnership units and 50% in promissory notes. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we determined that the fair value of the acquisition contingent consideration was $0 and $4 million, respectively. We recognized $276,000 in achieved contingencies which is recorded in other payables due to affiliates in our condensed consolidated balance sheets and a decrease in fair value of $1.3 million and $3.8 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 which is recorded in change in fair value of preferred stock derivatives/warrants and acquisition contingent consideration in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. We determined that the targeted amount of funds would not be raised by a certain date which resulted in a complete write off of our acquisition contingent consideration during the second quarter of 2014. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we recorded a change in fair value of preferred stock derivatives/warrants and acquisition contingent consideration of $479,000 for each period. See Note 13, Fair Value of Derivatives and Financial Instruments, for further discussion of our fair valuation on a recurring basis.

Landmark at Andros Isles

On August 3, 2012, we and our operating partnership entered into definitive agreements (the agreements and the transactions thereunder collectively referred to as the Recapitalization Transaction) to acquire a total of 22 properties, which included 21 apartment communities and one parcel of undeveloped land, or the Contributed Properties. In connection with the Recapitalization Transaction, our operating partnership entered into a definitive agreement for the acquisition of a 360-unit multifamily apartment community known as the Andros Isles property, or the Andros Property, in exchange for aggregate consideration valued at approximately $45 million and acquisition contingent consideration not to exceed $4 million. On June 4, 2014, we completed the acquisition of the Andros Property which included consideration of $10.3 million in limited partnership units, $5.2 million in net cash, $29.5 million of assumed mortgage loan payable, and the estimated fair value of acquisition consideration of $2.7 million. The acquisition contingent consideration is based on a calculation of future net operating income (which includes the payment of principal and interest on the mortgage loan payable as defined in the definitive agreements) over the four-year period subsequent to the acquisition, with a total payout not to exceed $4 million. The change in fair value

is recorded to change in fair value of preferred stock derivatives/warrants and acquisition contingent consideration on our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. There was no change in fair value for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014. See Note 13, Fair Value of Derivatives and Financial Instruments, for further discussion of our fair valuation on a recurring basis and Note 14, Business Combinations, for further discussion of our 2014 acquisitions.

10. Related Party Transactions

The transactions listed below cannot be construed to be at arm’s length and the results of our operations may be different than if such transactions were conducted with non-related parties.

Lease for Principal Executive Offices

In connection with our acquisition of the property management business of ELRM, we, through our operating partnership, entered into a lease agreement with Marlu Associates, Ltd., a Florida limited partnership, as the landlord, for office space located in Jupiter, Florida. Marlu Associates, Ltd. is an affiliated entity with Joseph G. Lubeck, our Executive Chairman. The lease has a term of five years with an aggregate rental of approximately $165,000 over the term of the lease. See Note 14, Business Combinations — ELRM Transaction, for more information on the acquisition of the property management business of ELRM.

ELRM and Management Support Services Agreement

In connection with the acquisition of the Contributed Properties, our Property Manager entered into a management support services agreement with ELRM who was the property manager of the properties at that time. During the period from January 1, 2013 to March 14, 2013, 32 of the 34 properties we owned had management support services or other accounting services performed by ELRM. Pursuant to the management support services agreement, ELRM was entitled to receive a fee equal to 3.00% of the gross receipts for each Contributed Property. ELRM also received a fee equal to 2.00% of the gross receipts for our other properties. The management support services agreement and the additional accounting services provided by ELRM were terminated in connection with the ELRM Transaction on March 14, 2013; accordingly, we no longer pay the management support services and accounting fees to ELRM. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we incurred $0 and $418,000, respectively, in management support services fees and accounting services performed by ELRM, which are included in general, administrative and other expense in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. We incurred no such expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014. Messrs. Lubeck and Salkind, two of our directors, directly or indirectly, owned a pecuniary interest in ELRM. Although at the time the management support services agreement was negotiated Messrs. Lubeck and Salkind were not related parties, we consider these arrangements to be a related party transaction due to the length of time these services were provided to us by ELRM and the consideration we paid ELRM for such services.

ELRH also reimburses us for between 25% and 100% of the salaries we pay to certain of our employees. Amounts reimbursed represent management’s estimate of these employees’ time spent working on behalf of ELRH. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, we were reimbursed $218,000 and $549,000, respectively, by ELRH. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we were reimbursed $163,050 for each period by ELRH.

Timbercreek U.S. Multi-Residential Opportunity Fund #1

As part of the ELRM Transaction, we acquired the rights to earn property management fees and back-end participation for managing certain real estate assets acquired by Timbercreek U.S. Multi-Residential Opportunity Fund # 1, or the Timbercreek Fund, an Ontario, Canada limited partnership. Also, during the period from the closing date of the ELRM Transaction and ending on the date that is 18 months thereafter, we had a commitment to purchase 500,000 Class A Units in the Timbercreek Holding L.P. in exchange for consideration of $5 million. On December 20, 2013, we purchased the 500,000 Class A Units in the Timbercreek Holding L.P. for consideration in the amount of $5 million, thereby becoming a limited partner is the Timbercreek Holding L.P. The Timbercreek Holding L.P. is a limited partner in the Timbercreek Fund. Mr. Lubeck and Ms. Elizabeth Truong, our Chief Investment Officer, serve on the Investment Committee of the Timbercreek Fund.

Limited Partnership Units Issued in Connection with Acquisitions

As of June 30, 2014, we had issued 34,638,356 limited partnership units with an aggregate value of $282.3 million including 1,263,725 limited partnership units with an aggregate value of $10.3 million issued in connection with the Andros Property acquisition described above. Such limited partnership units were issued, directly or indirectly, to Messrs. Lubeck, Salkind and Kobel, three of our directors, and Mr. Miller, our Chief Accounting Officer and Chief Operating Officer, in connection with the acquisition of apartment communities and the ELRM Transaction.

11. Equity

Preferred Stock

Our charter authorizes us to issue 50,000,000 shares of our preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had issued and outstanding 20,976,300 shares of Series D Preferred Stock. Additionally, as of June 30, 2014, we had issued and outstanding 7,400,000 shares of Series E Preferred Stock. See Note 8, Preferred Stock and Warrants to Purchase Common Stock.

Common Stock

Our charter authorizes us to issue up to 300,000,000 shares of our common stock. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had 25,516,036 and 25,182,988 shares, respectively, of our common stock issued and outstanding.

The following are the equity transactions with respect to our common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2014:

 

    133,810 shares of common stock were issued pursuant to the DRIP (as defined below).

 

    200,038 shares of restricted common stock were issued to certain of our independent directors pursuant to the terms and conditions of the 2006 Award Plan (as defined below).

 

    800 shares of restricted common stock were forfeited by an independent director upon his resignation from our board of directors.

Our distributions are subject to approval by our board of directors. Our common stock distributions as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 totaled $0.30 per share for each period then ended.

We report earnings (loss) per share pursuant to ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings (loss) per share attributable for all periods presented are computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common shares for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period using the two class method. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to common shares for the period by the weighted average number of common and dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Nonvested shares of our restricted common stock give rise to potentially dilutive shares of our common stock. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, there were 192,916 shares and 7,400 shares, respectively, of nonvested shares of our restricted common stock outstanding, but such shares were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because such shares were anti-dilutive during these periods. The long-term incentive plan units, or LTIP Units, could potentially dilute the basis earnings per share in future periods but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because to do so would have been anti-dilutive for the periods presented. Further, the warrants were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share and also would have been anti-dilutive for the periods presented.

Distribution Reinvestment Plan

In the first quarter of 2011, our board of directors adopted the Second Amended and Restated Distribution Reinvestment Plan, or the DRIP. The DRIP provides a way to increase stockholders’ investment in the Company by reinvesting distributions to purchase additional shares of our common stock. The DRIP offers up to 10,000,000 shares of our common stock for reinvestment. Distributions are reinvested in shares of our common stock at a price equal to the most recently disclosed per share value, as determined by our board of directors. Our board of directors has not determined that any fair value of a share of our common stock other than $8.15 per share is appropriate. Accordingly, $8.15 is the per share price used for the purchases of shares pursuant to the DRIP until such time as our board of directors provides a new estimate of share value. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, $1.1 million in distributions were reinvested and 133,810 shares of our common stock were issued pursuant to the DRIP.

Limited Partnership Units

As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had issued 41,429,634 and 33,450,957 limited partnership units to our non-controlling interest holders, respectively, for a total consideration of $337.7 million and $272.6 million, respectively, in relation to the acquisition of properties and the ELRM Transaction. In connection with the ELRM Transaction, ELRH and certain of its affiliates can receive up to an additional $1.3 million in limited partnership units based upon the preliminary valuation of these units. The limited partnership units issued as part of the ELRM Transaction are restricted and will vest in equal amounts over a period of five years, subject to certain accelerated vesting and cancellation provisions. See Note 12, Non-Controlling Interests, for additional information on our limited partnership units.

LTIP Units

As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had issued a total 818,602 and 720,322 LTIP Units under the 2012 Award Plan (as defined below), respectively, to certain of our executive officers as incentive compensation. On March 14, 2013, we issued 256,042 restricted LTIP Units in connection with the ELRM Transaction, which vest in equal amounts over a period of three years, subject to certain cancellation provisions.

2006 Incentive Award Plan

We adopted our 2006 Incentive Award Plan, or the 2006 Award Plan, pursuant to which our board of directors or a committee of our independent directors may make grants of options, restricted common stock awards, stock purchase rights, stock appreciation rights or other awards to our independent directors, employees and consultants. The maximum number of shares of our common stock that may be issued pursuant to our 2006 Award Plan, together with the number of shares issued under the 2012 Award Plan (as defined below), is 2,000,000, subject to adjustment under specified circumstances.

Shares of restricted common stock may not be sold, transferred, exchanged, assigned, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered. Such restrictions expire upon vesting. Shares of restricted common stock have full voting rights and rights to dividends. For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we recognized compensation expense of $154,000 and $13,000, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we recognized compensation expense of $168,000 and $18,000, respectively, related to the restricted common stock grants ultimately expected to vest, which has been reduced for estimated forfeitures. ASC Topic 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation, requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Stock compensation expense is included in general, administrative and other in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations.

As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, there was $1.5 million and $54,000, respectively, of total unrecognized compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, related to the nonvested shares of our restricted common stock. As of June 30, 2014, this expense was expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted average period of 3.82 years.

As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the fair value of the nonvested shares of our restricted common stock was $1.6 million and $60,310, respectively, based upon an $8.15 weighted average per share price at grant date. A summary of the status of the nonvested shares of our restricted common stock as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, and the changes for the six months ended June 30, 2014, is presented below:

2012 Other Equity-Based Award Plan

During 2012, our board of directors adopted our 2012 Other Equity-Based Award Plan, or the 2012 Award Plan, which is intended to assist our company and its affiliates in recruiting and retaining individuals and other service providers with ability and initiative by enabling such persons or entities to participate in the future success of the Company and its affiliates and to associate their interests with those of the Company and its stockholders. The 2012 Award Plan is also intended to complement the purposes and objectives of the 2006 Award Plan through the grant of “other equity-based awards” under the 2012 Award Plan. Pursuant to the 2012 Award Plan, our board of directors or the compensation committee of our board of directors may make grants of other equity-based awards to our independent directors, employees and certain consultants. Other equity-based awards are payable in cash, shares of common stock or other equity, or a combination thereof, and the terms and conditions of such other equity-based awards are determined by our board of directors or the compensation committee of our board of directors, as applicable. The maximum aggregate number of shares of our common stock that may be issued under the 2012 Award Plan, together with the number of shares issued under the 2006 Award Plan, is 2,000,000 shares of common stock.

12. Non-Controlling Interests

Redeemable Non-Controlling Interests in Operating Partnership

As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had issued 41,429,634 and 33,450,957 limited partnership units, respectively, for a total consideration of $337.7 million and $272.6 million, respectively, in relation to the acquisition of apartment communities and the ELRM Transaction. If the limited partnership units were to be redeemed, the total redemption value would have been $337.7 million as of June 30, 2014. The following are the equity transactions for our limited partnership units during the six months ended June 30, 2014:

 

    25,648 limited partnership units were issued pursuant to reinvestment of the distributions.

 

    1,252,245 limited partnership units were issued as partial consideration for the acquisition of Landmark at Chesterfield, Landmark at Coventry Pointe, Landmark at Grand Oasis, and Landmark at Rosewood.

 

    3,425,900 limited partnership units were issued as partial consideration for the acquisition of Lake Village East, Lake Village North, Lake Village West, and Landmark at Laurel Heights.

    1,116,976 limited partnership units were issued as partial consideration for the acquisition of Landmark at Maple Glen.

 

    1,263,725 limited partnership units were issued as partial consideration for the acquisition of Landmark at Andros Isles.

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, $209,000 in distributions were reinvested and 25,648 limited partnership units were issued.

As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we owned approximately 37.7% and 42.4% of the general partnership interest in our operating partnership, respectively, and the limited partners owned approximately 62.3% and 57.6%, respectively, of the limited partnership interests in our operating partnership.

Non-Controlling Interest Partners

Non-controlling interest partners represents interests of our joint venture partners in seven consolidated apartment communities as of June 30, 2014 and is presented as part of equity in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We consolidate an entity in which we own less than 100% but for which we hold the controlling financial interest. In addition, we consolidate any joint venture or partnership in which we are the general partner or managing member and the third party does not have the ability to participate substantially in the decision-making process or remove us as general partner or managing member, as the case may be, without cause. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the amount of non-controlling interest of our partners was $27.7 million and $3.9 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, net (income)/loss attributable to non-controlling interest partner was $(112,000) and $1.4 million, respectively. We did not have net income or loss attributable to non-controlling interest partners for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013.

13. Fair Value of Derivatives and Financial Instruments

ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments, whether or not recognized on the face of the balance sheet. Fair value is defined under ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.

Interest Rate Caps and Interest Rate Swaps

We manage our interest rate risk through the use of derivative financial instruments. We do not enter into derivative transactions for trading or other speculative purposes. The interest rate derivatives that we primarily use are interest rate caps and interest rate swaps. We enter into these interest rate derivative transactions to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates on future debt issuances. We assess the effectiveness of qualifying cash flow hedges both at inception and on an on-going basis. The fair values of the hedging derivatives and non-designated derivatives that are in an asset position are recorded in other assets, net on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of derivatives that are in a liability position are included in security deposits, prepaid rent and other liabilities on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

As of June 30, 2014, we had entered into five interest rate cap agreements. An interest rate cap involves the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty if interest rates rise above the strike rate on the contract in exchange for an upfront premium. The fair value of our interest rate cap is determined using the market standard methodology of discounting the future expected cash receipts that would occur if variable interest rate rises above the strike rate of the cap using a Level 2 fair value calculation. These derivatives are not intended by us to be a hedge instrument and the change in fair value

is recorded to interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the change in fair value resulted in an increase to interest expense of $208,000 and $28,000, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the change in fair value resulted in an increase to interest expense of $305,000 and $55,000, respectively.

As of June 30, 2014, we had entered into three interest rate swap agreements pursuant to which we have agreed to pay a fixed rate of interest in exchange for a floating rate of interest at a future date and have designated two of these as hedging derivatives and one as a non-designated hedge. The fair value of our interest rate swap agreements is determined using the market standard methodology of discounting the future expected cash receipts that would occur if variable interest rate rises above or below the strike rate of the future floating rate and is a Level 2 fair value calculation.

For the two interest rate swaps that we have determined qualify as effective cash flow hedges, we have recorded the effective portion of cumulative changes in the fair value of the hedging derivatives in accumulated other comprehensive operations in the condensed consolidated statements of equity. Amounts recorded in accumulated other comprehensive operations will be reclassified into earnings in the periods in which earnings are affected by the hedged cash flow. To adjust the hedging derivatives in qualifying cash flow hedges to their fair value and recognize the impact of hedge accounting, we recorded $408,000 and $686,000 in other comprehensive loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. To adjust the hedging derivatives in qualifying cash flow hedges to their fair value and recognize the impact of hedge accounting, we recorded $310,000 in other comprehensive income for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. The one interest rate swap is not intended by us to be a hedge instrument and the change in fair value is recorded to interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. For each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the change in fair value was $370,000. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we did not record a change in fair value.

(1) The fair value is estimated using borrowing rates available to us for debt instruments with similar terms and maturities.
(2) The fair value is not determinable due to the related party nature of the unsecured notes payable to affiliates, other than the Legacy Unsecured Note. The fair value of the Legacy Unsecured Note is based on a benchmark index from the limited partnership unit distributions dividend rate; therefore, we consider the fair value of the Legacy Unsecured Note to be equal to the carrying value.
(3) The fair value is based on management’s inputs and assumptions relating primarily to the expected cash flows, and the timing of such cash flows, from the economic rights we acquired in connection with the ELRM Transaction that enables us to earn property management fees and subordinated participation distributions with respect to certain real estate assets. During the quarter ended June 30, 2014, management determined that the targeted cash flows would not be raised by a certain date which resulted in a complete write off of the acquisition contingent consideration.
(4) The fair value is based on management’s inputs and assumptions related primarily to certain net operating income over a four-year period for Landmark at Andros Isles.
(5) The fair value of the warrants is estimated using the Monte-Carlo Simulation.
(6) The fair value of the Series D Preferred Stock derivative, which relates to the mandatory redemption of 50% of the Series D Preferred Stock outstanding as of the date of a triggering event as described in the Series D Preferred Stock agreements for a premium, is determined using a modeling technique based on significant unobservable inputs calculated using a probability-weighted approach. Significant inputs include the expected timing of a triggering event, the expected timing of additional issuances of Series D Preferred Stock, and the discount rate.
(7) The fair value of the Series E Preferred Stock derivative, which relates to the mandatory redemption of 50% of the Series E Preferred Stock outstanding as of the date of a triggering event as described in the Series E Preferred Stock agreements for a premium, is determined using a modeling technique based on significant unobservable inputs calculated using a probability-weighted approach. Significant inputs include the expected timing of a triggering event, the expected timing of additional issuances of Series E Preferred Stock, and the discount rate.

14. Business Combinations

2014 Property Acquisitions

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, we completed the acquisition of 13 consolidated apartment communities, including six properties held through consolidated joint ventures, adding a total of 4,757 apartment units to our property portfolio. The aggregate purchase price was approximately $367.9 million, plus closing costs and acquisition fees of $2 million, which are included in acquisition-related expense, net in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. During the three months ended June 30, 2014, we recorded the correction of an immaterial error related to the quarter ended March 31, 2014 of $1.6 million and the reimbursement of $200,000 in previously recorded acquisition-related expenses related to a potential deal. This was partially offset by acquisition-related expenses of $117,000 incurred for the acquisition of Landmark at Andros Isles. See Note 3, Real Estate Investments — Real Estate Acquisitions, for a listing of the properties acquired and the dates of the acquisitions.

Results of operations for the property acquisitions are reflected in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 for the period subsequent to the acquisition dates. For the period from the acquisition dates through June 30, 2014, we recognized $19.9 million in revenues and $6.7 million in net loss for the newly acquired properties.

In accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, or ASC Topic 805, we allocated the purchase price of the 13 apartment communities to the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including allocating to the intangibles associated with the in-place leases, above/below market leases and assumed debt. Certain allocations, including the initial estimate of the fair value of acquisition contingent consideration, as of June 30, 2014 are subject to change based on finalization of the value of consideration paid and information to be received related to one or more events at the time of purchase, which confirm the value of an asset acquired or a liability assumed in an acquisition of a property. We made adjustments to the preliminary price allocation for Landmark at Spring Creek which we acquired in the first quarter of 2014. All adjustments were within operating properties, net in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

2013 Property Acquisitions

For the six months ended June 30, 2013, we completed the acquisition of 12 consolidated apartment communities, adding a total of 3,012 apartment units to our property portfolio. The aggregate purchase price was approximately $241.5 million, plus closing costs and acquisition fees of $1.1 million, which are included in acquisition-related expense, net in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations.

Results of operations for the property acquisitions are reflected in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 for the period subsequent to the acquisition dates.

ELRM Transaction

In connection with the ELRM Transaction, we acquired the property management business of ELRH and certain of its affiliates on March 14, 2013. Results of operations for the property management business are reflected in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, and for the period subsequent to the acquisition date. For the period from March 14, 2013 through June 30, 2013, we recognized $1.6 million in revenues and $327,000 in consolidated net loss before income tax benefit, and transaction related costs of approximately $175,000 were recorded as a component of acquisition-related expense, net.

(3) In the third quarter of the year ended December 31, 2013, we recorded an increase to goodwill of $3.3 million and a decrease to identified intangible assets of $3.3 million as a measurement period adjustment as we obtained the necessary information to quantify the value of intangible assets acquired during the quarter. During the fourth quarter of the year ended December 31, 2013, we recorded a decrease of $1 million to goodwill and a decrease of $1 million to deferred tax liability, net.
(4) In the second quarter of 2014, we recorded a decrease to goodwill of $481,000 and an increase to accounts receivable from affiliates, which represents a correction of the original purchase price allocation due to an immaterial error. This correction will result in the forfeiture of 58,965 limited partnership units during the third quarter of 2014 in connection with two property management contracts being terminated in the second quarter of 2013.

Declaration of Distributions

On July 17, 2014, our board of directors authorized monthly distributions to our stockholders of record as of the close of business on July 31, 2014, August 31, 2014 and September 30, 2014. Each such authorized distribution will be equal to $0.025 per share of common stock, which is equal to an annualized distribution rate of 3.00% based upon a purchase price of $10.00 per share and 3.68% based upon a purchase price of $8.15 per share value. The July 2014 distribution was paid in August 2014 from legally available funds. To the extent there are legally available funds, the August 2014 and September 2014 distributions will be paid in September 2014 and October 2014, respectively.

On July 28, 2014, we paid a non-refundable deposit towards the acquisition of the Villa Tuscany Apartments which are a 342 unit apartment community located in Orlando, FL. We expect to acquire the apartment community during the third quarter of 2014.

Review Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Board of Directors and Shareholders of

Landmark Apartment Trust of America, Inc.

We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Landmark Apartment Trust of America, Inc. as of June 30, 2014, and the related condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, and the condensed consolidated statement of equity for the six month period ended June 30, 2014. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of Landmark Apartment Trust of America, Inc. as of December 31, 2013, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive operations, equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein) and we expressed an unqualified audit opinion on those consolidated financial statements in our report dated March 21, 2014. In our opinion, the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Landmark Apartment Trust of America, Inc. as of December 31, 2013 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

The use of the words “we,” “us,” “our company” or “our” refers to Landmark Apartment Trust of America, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and its subsidiaries, including Landmark Apartment Trust of America Holdings, LP, except where the context otherwise requires.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Such condensed consolidated financial statements and information have been prepared to reflect our financial position as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, together with our results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

Forward-Looking Statements

Historical results and trends should not be taken as indicative of future operations. Our statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. Actual results may differ materially from those included in the forward-looking statements. We intend those forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and we are including this statement for purposes of complying with those safe-harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe future plans, strategies and expectations, are generally identifiable by use of the words “expect,” “project,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “intend,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “continue,” “predict,” “potential” or the negative of such terms and other comparable terminology. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse effect on our operations and future prospects on a consolidated basis include, but are not limited to: the availability of financing; changes in economic conditions generally and the real estate market specifically; changes in interest rates; competition in the real estate industry; the supply and demand for operating properties in our target market areas; legislative and regulatory changes, including changes to laws governing the taxation of real estate investment trusts, or REITs; changes in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, policies and guidelines applicable to REITs; and the availability of sources of capital. These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. Additional information concerning us and our business, including additional factors that could materially affect our financial results, is included herein and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC.

Overview and Background

Landmark Apartment Trust of America, Inc., a Maryland corporation, was incorporated on December 21, 2005. We are self-administered and self-managed, and we conduct substantially all of our operations through our operating partnership, Landmark Apartment Trust of America Holdings, LP. We are in the business of acquiring, holding and managing a diverse portfolio of quality apartment communities with stable cash flows and growth potential primarily in the Sunbelt region, which comprises the South and certain Southwest regions of the United States. We may acquire and have acquired other real estate-related investments. We focus primarily on investments that produce current income. We have qualified and elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, for federal income tax purposes commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2006. We intend to continue to meet the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT.

Between July 19, 2006 and July 17, 2011, we raised a total of $187.1 million in connection with our continuous offering of shares of our common stock. On February 24, 2011, our board of directors adopted the Second Amended and Restated Dividend Reinvestment Plan, or the DRIP, which was effective as of March 11, 2011. The DRIP is designed to offer our existing stockholders a simple and convenient method of purchasing additional shares of our common stock by reinvesting cash distributions. The DRIP offers up to 10,000,000 shares of our common stock for reinvestment for a maximum offering of up to $95 million. Pursuant to the DRIP, distributions are reinvested in shares of our common stock at a price equal to the most recently disclosed per share value, as determined by our board of directors. Effective as of August 3, 2012, our board of directors determined the fair value of our common stock is $8.15 per share. Accordingly, $8.15 is the per share price used for the purchases of shares pursuant to the DRIP until such time as our board of directors provides a new estimate of share value.

On August 3, 2012, we and our operating partnership entered into definitive agreements (the agreements and the transactions thereunder collectively referred to as the Recapitalization Transaction) to acquire a total of 22 properties from Elco Landmark Residential Holdings, LLC, or ELRH, and DeBartolo Development LLC and its affiliates, which included 21 apartment communities and one parcel of undeveloped land, or the Contributed Properties, containing an aggregate of 6,079 units. The aggregate consideration for the Contributed Properties consisted generally of common units of limited partnership interests in our operating partnership, cash and assumed mortgage indebtedness. As of June 30, 2014, we had completed the acquisition of all 22 properties.

On March 7, 2013, we entered into a credit agreement, or the Credit Agreement, to obtain a secured credit facility in the aggregate maximum principal amount of $130 million, or the Credit Facility, with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and Citibank, as syndicated agent, and the lenders and guarantors party thereto. We use the proceeds from the Credit Facility for general corporate purposes, including refinancing existing debt on certain properties. The Credit Agreement will mature on March 7, 2015, subject to an extension of the maturity date to March 7, 2016 if certain conditions are satisfied, which would have to be assessed at that time. Subject to certain terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement, we may increase the original principal amount under the Credit Facility by an additional $50 million. We initially exercised our option to increase aggregate borrowings available under the Credit Facility from $130 million to $145.2 million on October 10, 2013 and drew down the amount of $15.2 million to fund the acquisition of an apartment community. We again exercised the option to increase the Credit Facility on January 15, 2014 and drew down the amount of $20.7 million to fund the acquisition of an apartment community. In connection with the sale of an apartment community on May 28, 2014, we paid down $4.4 million on the Credit Facility. During the second quarter of 2014, we paid principal of $800,000 on the Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2014, we had an outstanding principal balance of $160.7 million under our Credit Facility.

On March 14, 2013, we completed the acquisition of the management operations of Elco Landmark Residential Management, LLC and certain of its affiliates, or, collectively, the ELRM Parties, and acquired the management operations of the ELRM Parties, including certain property management contracts and the rights to earn property management fees and back-end participation for managing certain real estate assets acquired by Timbercreek U.S. Multi-Residential Opportunity Fund # 1, an Ontario, Canada limited partnership. We refer to this acquisition as the ELRM Transaction. The aggregate consideration that the ELRM Parties will receive in connection with the ELRM Transaction will be up to $26.2 million (subject to certain adjustments and clawbacks) and consists of restricted units of limited partnership interests in our operating partnership having an aggregate value of $16.2 million and $10 million payable under a promissory note. In connection with the ELRM Transaction, on December 20, 2013, we purchased 500,000 Class A Units in Timbercreek U.S. Multi-Residential (U.S.) Holding, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, for consideration in the amount of $5 million consisting of 613,497 shares of our restricted common stock. Additionally, an affiliate of the ELRM Parties will have the opportunity to earn additional consideration in the form of restricted limited partnership interests in our operating partnership and a promissory note through an earn-out arrangement, which is based on projected fees that we would earn in connection with new property management agreements for properties of the ELRM Parties. As of June 30, 2014, we had issued 139,759 restricted limited partnership interests in our operating partnership for an aggregate value of $1.1 million, $284,000 in promissory notes and $844,000 in incurred liabilities to the ELRM Parties for additional consideration that was earned.

On June 28, 2013, we entered into a series of definitive agreements pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell for cash to iStar Apartment Holdings LLC, or iStar, and BREDS II Q Landmark LLC, or BREDS, shares of our 8.75% Series D Cumulative Non-Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, or our Series D Preferred Stock, a new series of our preferred stock. Holders of the Series D Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative cash dividends of 14.47% per annum, compounded monthly. As of June 30, 2014, we had issued a total of 20,976,300 shares of our Series D Preferred Stock, at a price of $10.00 per share, for an aggregate of $209.8 million. We used the proceeds from the sale of the Series D Preferred Stock to redeem all issued and outstanding shares of our Series A Cumulative Non-Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock, or our Series A Preferred Stock, and our Series B Cumulative Non-Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock, or our Series B Preferred Stock, and to acquire and reposition additional apartment communities. In the event of a public listing of our common stock, we would be obligated to redeem no less than 50% of the Series D Preferred Stock outstanding at a price that, as of June 30, 2014, would have included a premium of $9.6 million.

On July 1, 2013, we entered into a series of definitive agreements pursuant to which we acquired from ELRH and certain of its affiliates a portfolio of seven apartment communities, containing an aggregate of 1,982 units, in exchange for aggregate consideration valued at approximately $122.8 million. In addition, we issued to 2335887 Limited Partnership 1,840,491 shares of our common stock for $15 million in cash and to MB Equity Holdings, Inc., an unaffiliated British Virgin Islands corporation, 214,724 shares of our common stock for $1.8 million in cash.

On December 31, 2013, we entered into an agreement, or the Omnibus Agreement, with ELRH, Elco Holdings Ltd., an Israeli public corporation, or EH, and Elco North America Inc., a Delaware corporation, or ENA. EH is the parent company of ENA. The principal purposes of the Omnibus Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder are to (i) enable us to acquire an interest in a total of 26 separate apartment communities from ELRH and certain of its affiliates (all of which have been acquired as of June 30, 2014, including two apartment communities that we account for under the equity method); and (ii) enable a restructuring transaction of ENA.

On January 7, 2014, we entered into a series of definitive agreements pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell for cash to iStar and BREDS shares of our 9.25% Series E Cumulative Non-Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, or our Series E Preferred Stock, a new series of our preferred stock. Holders of our Series E Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative cash dividends of 14.47% per annum, compounded monthly. As of June 30, 2014, we had issued a total of 7,400,000 shares of Series E Preferred Stock, at a price of $10.00 per share, for an aggregate of $74 million. The proceeds from the sale of the Series E Preferred Stock have been used primarily to acquire and reposition additional apartment communities. In the event of a public listing of our common stock, we would be obligated to redeem no less than 50% of the Series E Preferred Stock outstanding at a price that, as of June 30, 2014, would have included a premium of $4.9 million.

Pursuant to the protective provisions of the agreements designating the Series D Preferred Stock and the Series E Preferred Stock, we may not, without the prior written consent of iStar and BREDS, take certain corporate actions, including, but not limited to, amending our charter or bylaws or entering into material contracts.

As of June 30, 2014, we consolidated 78 apartment communities, including seven properties held through consolidated joint ventures, and two parcels of undeveloped land with an aggregate of 24,045 apartment units, which had an aggregate gross carrying value of $1.9 billion. We refer to these properties as our consolidated owned properties. We hold a non-controlling interest in two apartment communities with an aggregate of 750 apartment units which are accounted for under the equity method. We also serve as the third-party manager for an additional 23 properties which have an aggregate of 7,984 apartment units. We refer to these as our managed properties. We have an indirect ownership interest in eight of those managed properties through our investment in Timbercreek U.S. Multi-Residential (U.S.) Holding L.P. Our managed properties are managed by ATA Property Management, LLC, or our Property Manager, which includes the acquisition of the management operations as part of the ELRM transaction.

Critical Accounting Policies

The complete listing of our critical accounting policies was previously disclosed in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on March 24, 2014. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies as disclosed therein.

Interim Unaudited Financial Data

Our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by us in accordance with GAAP in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures required for annual financial statements have been condensed or excluded pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. Accordingly, our accompanying interim consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are, in our view, of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim period. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year; such full year results may be less favorable. Our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on March 24, 2014.

Acquisitions

For information regarding our acquisitions, see Note 3, Real Estate Investments and Note 14, Business Combinations to our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

Dispositions

For information regarding our dispositions, see Note 4, Real Estate Disposition Activities, to our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

Factors Which May Influence Results of Operations

We are not aware of any material trends or uncertainties, other than national economic conditions affecting real estate generally, that may reasonably be expected to have a material impact, favorable or unfavorable, on revenues or income from the acquisition, management and operation of properties other than those Risk Factors previously disclosed in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on March 24, 2014.

Rental Income

The amount of rental income generated by our properties depends principally on our ability to maintain the occupancy rates of currently leased space and to lease currently available space and space available from unscheduled lease terminations at the then existing rental rates. Negative trends in one or more of these factors could adversely affect our rental income in future periods.

Management Fee Income

The amount of management fee income generated by our property management company depends, in part, on our ability to maintain our property management contracts with third party property owners and to increase the property management fees, if possible. If we were to purchase a managed property from a third party, then our management fee income would decrease and would be offset by any rental income received. The amount of management fee income generated by our property management company also depends on the ability of the third party property owners to maintain the occupancy rates of currently leased space and to lease currently available space and space available from unscheduled lease terminations at the then existing market rental rates. Negative trends impacting one or more of these factors could adversely affect our management fee income in future periods.

Results of Continuing Operations

Our continuing operating results are primarily comprised of income derived from our portfolio of apartment communities and, to a lesser degree, from our income derived by our Property Manager in connection with management services performed for properties owned by affiliated third parties.

Except where otherwise noted, the change in our results of continuing operations was primarily due to changes in our number of consolidated owned and managed apartment communities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. We consolidated a total of 78 apartment communities as of June 30, 2014 (including seven properties held through consolidated joint ventures), compared to a total of 42 apartment communities that we consolidated as of

Table of Contents

June 30, 2013. We also consolidated the operations of our two leased apartment communities owned by unaffiliated third parties for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Subsequent to June 30, 2013, we acquired one of the two leased apartment communities, and we acquired a controlling interest in the remaining leased apartment community on February 6, 2014. Therefore, we did not lease any apartment communities as of June 30, 2014. Because we own the operations of the two formerly leased apartment communities, and therefore, consolidate the operations of such apartment communities, these acquisitions did not result in an increase of rental income, other property revenues, and rental expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. However, the acquisitions did result in a significant decrease in property lease expense, as discussed below. We sold one apartment community on May 28, 2014 and one apartment community on June 30, 2014. We also sold two apartment communities in 2013, which are included in income from discontinued operations on our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. In connection with the ELRM Transaction, we acquired the property management business of ELRH and certain of its affiliates on March 14, 2013. Results of operations for the property management business are reflected in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations for the period subsequent to the acquisition date through June 30, 2013 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.

Revenues

For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, revenues were $65.3 million and $35.1 million, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2014, revenues were comprised of rental income of $52.8 million, other property revenues of $7.6 million, management fee income of $1.3 million and reimbursed income of $3.6 million. For the three months ended June 30, 2013, revenues were comprised of rental income of $25.4 million, other property revenues of $3.4 million, management fee income of $1.3 million and reimbursed income of $5 million.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, revenues were $127.8 million and $63.5 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, revenues were comprised of rental income of $104.6 million, other property revenues of $15 million, management fee income of $2.3 million, and reimbursed income of $6 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, revenues were comprised of rental income of $47 million, other property revenues of $6.2 million, management fee income of $1.7 million, and $8.6 million in reimbursed income.

The increase in revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was primarily attributed to the increase in the number of properties we consolidated and owned, as discussed above. Other property revenues consist primarily of utility re-billings as well as administrative, application and other fees charged to tenants, including amounts recorded in connection with early lease terminations. Reimbursed income is offset by reimbursed expense. See Reimbursed Expense below for a further discussion.

The average occupancy for our consolidated owned properties was 93.3% as of June 30, 2014, as compared to 94.9% as of June 30, 2013. The average occupancy of our two leased apartment communities owned by unaffiliated third parties was 93.1% as of June 30, 2013. The average rental rate for our consolidated owned properties was $759 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to $790 for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The average rental rate for our two leased apartment communities owned by unaffiliated third parties was $701 for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The average rental rate for our consolidated owned properties was $757 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to $787 for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The average rental rate for our two leased apartment communities owned by unaffiliated third parties was $697 for the six months ended June 30, 2013. We believe that the economic and demographic characteristics of the geographic locations in which we own properties are favorable for increasing rental rates in the near term. The decrease in per unit rental rates resulted from a diversification of our operating strategy to purchase slightly older properties with lower rental rates. This strategy allows us to offer housing in our growth oriented markets to more qualified renters within our markets. While these newly acquired properties may be older, they are well located and maintained and simply allow us to broaden our base of potential renters over a broader income demographic spectrum within our identified target markets.

Rental Expenses

For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, rental expenses were $27.5 million and $13.5 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, rental expenses were $54.7 million and $24.4 million, respectively. Rental expenses consisted of the following for the periods then ended (in thousands):

The increase in rental expenses of $14 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2013, and the increase in rental expenses of $30.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013, was primarily attributed to the increase in the number of apartment communities that we consolidated and owned.

For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, rental expenses as a percentage of rental income and other property revenues were 45.5% and 47.0%, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, rental expenses as a percentage of rental income and other property revenues were 45.7% and 45.8%, respectively.

Property Lease Expense

For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, property lease expense was $17,000 and $574,000, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, property lease expense was $33,000 and $1.6 million, respectively. Our property lease expense was due to our four leased apartment communities owned by unaffiliated third parties. As the master tenants of the leased apartment communities, we paid property lease expense monthly to the master landlord. We became the master tenants on June 17, 2011. As of June 30, 2013, we leased two apartment communities due to our acquisition of two of the previously held leased apartment communities on March 28 and June 28, 2013. On October 10, 2013, we acquired one of the previously held leased apartment communities. On February 6, 2014, we acquired controlling interest in the last remaining leased apartment community, Landmark at Spring Creek. As of June 30, 2014, we incurred property lease expense to our non-controlling interest partner in Landmark at Spring Creek. Our property lease expense has decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 due to our having acquired either 100% ownership interest or a controlling interest in all of our leased apartment communities as of such period.

Reimbursed Expense

For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, reimbursed expense was $3.6 million and $5 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, reimbursed expense was $6 million and $8.6 million, respectively. Our Property Manager served as a property manager for 23 apartment communities and 45 apartment communities owned by affiliated third parties as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. On March 14, 2013, in connection with the ELRM Transaction, our Property Manager began serving as a property manager for 45 apartment communities owned by unaffiliated third parties. Reimbursed expense represents the salaries and benefits for the management of such apartment communities and the property insurance of such apartment communities reimbursed to us by the affiliated third parties, and the actual reimbursement is recorded as reimbursed income.

General, administrative and other expense

For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, general, administrative and other expense was $5.4 million and $3.6 million, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, general, administrative and other expense was $11.7 million and $6.4 million, respectively. General, administrative and other expense consisted of the following for the periods then ended (in thousands):

The increase in general, administrative and other expense of $1.8 million and $5.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, was primarily due to increases in salaries and benefits expense and incentive compensation as a result of the growth of our company.

Change in fair value of preferred stock derivatives/warrants and acquisition contingent consideration

The change in fair value of preferred stock derivatives/warrants and acquisition contingent consideration is due to our financial instruments which includes acquisition contingent consideration – ELRM Transaction, warrants, Series D Preferred Stock derivative, and Series E Preferred Stock derivative. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, we had decreases in the fair value of our financial instruments of $9.5 million and $11.2 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we had increases in the fair value of our financial instruments of $145,000 and $107,000, respectively. The change in fair value of preferred stock derivatives/warrants and acquisition contingent consideration of $9.4 million and $11.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, was primarily due to the following: (i) the warrants originated on August 3, 2012 and February 27, 2013 and the acquisition contingent consideration – ELRM Transaction originated on March 13, 2013; (ii) the Series D Preferred Stock derivative originated on June 28, 2013 with changes in fair value beginning the third quarter of 2013; (iii) the Series E Preferred Stock derivative originated on January 7, 2014 with changes in fair value beginning the first quarter of 2014; and (iv) all of our financial instruments had significant changes due to the expected timing of triggering events.

Acquisition-related expense, net

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, we recognized acquisition-related expense, net of $(1.7) million and $2 million, respectively, related to the acquisition of 13 apartment communities (including six properties held through consolidated joint ventures). During the three months ended June 30, 2014, we recorded the correction of an immaterial error recorded in acquisition-related expense, net related to the quarter ended March 31, 2014 of $1.6 million and the reimbursement of $200,000 in previously recorded acquisition-related expense, net related to a potential deal. This was partially offset by acquisition-related expenses of $117,000 incurred for the acquisition of Landmark at Andros Isles. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we incurred acquisition-related expense, net of $1.6 million and $2.6 million respectively, associated with the acquisition of 12 apartment communities and the ELRM Transaction.

Loss from Unconsolidated Entities

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, we recognized a loss of $938,000 and $1.2 million, respectively, related to our non-controlling interest in two joint ventures which own two apartment communities. We did not incur a loss from unconsolidated entities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 because we did not acquire an ownership interest in the two joint ventures until the fourth quarter of 2013.

Depreciation and Amortization

For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, depreciation and amortization was $23.6 million and $12.3 million, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, depreciation and amortization was $55.6 million and $23.3 million, respectively. The increase in depreciation and amortization of $11.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2013, and the increase in depreciation and amortization of $32.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013, was primarily attributed to the increase in the number of apartment communities we consolidated and owned. Such increases were partially offset by assets becoming fully depreciated and amortized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.

Interest Expense, Net

For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, interest expense, net was $15.9 million and $6.9 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, interest expense, net was $31.5 million and $12.8 million, respectively. The increase in interest expense, net of $9 million and $18.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, was primarily due to the following: (i) an increase in the borrowings under the Credit Facility and an increase in mortgage loan payables in connection with the acquisition of new apartment communities; and (ii) the accretion expense of the warrants, Series D Preferred Stock derivative and the Series E Preferred Stock derivative.

Preferred Dividends Classified as Interest Expense

For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, preferred dividends classified as interest expense was $10.5 million and $1.5 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, preferred dividends classified as interest expense was $20.5 million and $2.8 million, respectively. The increase in preferred dividends classified as interest expense of $9 million and $17.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, was due to the increase in preferred stock outstanding. We issued shares of our Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock on August 3, 2012, as well as, additional shares of our Series A Preferred Stock on February 27, 2013. We redeemed all of our outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock on June 28, 2013. We issued shares of our Series D Preferred Stock between June 28, 2013 and December 31, 2013 and shares of our Series E Preferred Stock between January 7, 2014 and June 4, 2014.

Gain on Sale of Operating Properties

We sold two apartment communities, Manchester Park on May 28, 2014 and Bay Breeze Villas on June 30, 2014, and recognized a gain on sale of operating properties of $7 million for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.

Disposition Right Income

On March 28, 2013 and June 28, 2013, we acquired the Landmark at Mallard Creek and the Landmark at Monaco Gardens properties, respectively. Prior to our acquisition of such properties, both properties were owned by unaffiliated third parties and leased by subsidiaries of our wholly owned subsidiary, NNN Mission Residential Holdings, LLC, or NNN/MR Holdings. Pursuant to each master lease or other operative agreement, between each master tenant subsidiary of NNN/MR Holdings and the respective third-party property owner, NNN/MR Holdings was entitled to a disposition fee in the event that any of the leased multifamily properties were sold. The disposition fee was 5% of the purchase price of $39.6 million, or $2 million. When NNN/MR Holdings became our wholly-owned subsidiary in the second quarter of 2011, we recognized a disposition fee right intangible of $750,000 related to the master tenants of both properties. The excess of the disposition fee over the recorded disposition fee right intangible for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 was $671,000 and $1.2 million, respectively, and was recorded as disposition right income in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. We did not incur disposition right income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.

Loss on Debt and Preferred Stock Extinguishment

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we recognized a loss on debt and preferred stock extinguishment of $9.5 million and $10.2 million, respectively. In connection with our redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock, we incurred a $9.5 million loss on preferred stock extinguishment consisting of $6.4 million in prepayment penalties, a write off of $2.5 million in unamortized loan accretion and deferred financing costs, and $600,000 in redemption fees. A portion of the proceeds received from borrowings under the Credit Facility were used to refinance existing mortgage loan payables. Certain of the refinanced mortgage loan payables were subject to prepayment penalties and write off of unamortized deferred financing costs that totaled $684,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2013. We incurred no loss on debt and preferred stock extinguishment in the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.

Income Tax Benefit

During the first quarter of 2013, we evaluated the ability to realize our deferred tax asset, which was previously offset by a valuation allowance. Due to a deferred tax liability resulting from the ELRM Transaction, we believe it was more likely than not that our deferred tax asset will be realized. As of March 31, 2014, our deferred tax assets approximately equaled our deferred tax liabilities. We determined at that time to the extent deferred tax assets are created in periods after March 31, 2014, we will evaluate our ability to realize these deferred tax assets and record a valuation allowance as needed. Due to the history of losses incurred by the Property Manager, it is expected that any future net deferred tax assets will be offset by a valuation allowance until the Property Manager becomes consistently profitable. Therefore, the deferred tax assets created during the quarter ended June 30 2014, were offset by a valuation allowance. Accordingly, an income tax (expense)/benefit of $(220,000) and $286,000 was recognized for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and an income tax benefit of $223,000 and $3.1 million was recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, which includes a reversal of the prior valuation allowance of $2.7 million during the first quarter of 2013. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the income tax (expense)/benefit includes state income tax expense of $212,000 for each of those periods.

Income from Discontinued Operations

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we recognized income from discontinued operations of $218,000 and $7.1 million, respectively, related to the net gain on the sale of two apartment communities during 2013 that were classified as discontinued operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Generally, our sources of funds will primarily be met from operations, additional borrowings, refinancing existing loans and the issuance of equity securities. We believe that these cash resources will be sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements for the foreseeable future, and we do not anticipate a need to raise funds from other than these sources within the next 12 months. Due to the significant debt maturities coming due in the next 12 months, we plan to investigate opportunities to extend, refinance or raise funds to repay each of these instruments prior to their respective maturities. If we are unable to refinance such existing debt or otherwise raise new funds to replace such existing capital resources, or if we are unable to do so on favorable terms, such inability could have a materially adverse effect upon us.

Table of Contents

We are dependent upon our income from operations to provide capital required to meet our principal demands for funds, including operating expenses, principal and interest due on our outstanding indebtedness and preferred shares outstanding, and distributions to our stockholders and limited partnership unit holders. We estimate that we will require approximately $49.5 million to pay interest and $275.3 million to pay principal on our outstanding mortgage and unsecured indebtedness in the next 12 months ended June 30, 2015, based on rates in effect as of June 30, 2014. This includes $2.3 million in estimated interest payments and $1.5 million in principal payments in the last half of 2014 and $834,000 in estimated interest payments and $159.2 million in principal payments in the first quarter of 2015 related to the Credit Facility which matures on March 7, 2015. The maturity date may be extended to March 7, 2016 if certain conditions are satisfied, which would have to be assessed at that time.

We are required by the terms of the applicable mortgage loan documents and the Credit Facility to meet certain financial covenants, such as minimum net worth and liquidity amounts, and financial reporting requirements. See “— Financing” below. As of June 30, 2014, we were in compliance with all such requirements and we expect to remain in compliance within the next 12 months. If we are unable to obtain financing in the future, it may have a material effect on our financial condition, operating results, liquidity and capital resources and/or our ability to continue making dividend payments to our stockholders and limited partnership unit holders.

In connection with our property acquisitions, we generally prepare a capital plan that contemplates the estimated capital needs of that investment. In addition to operating expenses, capital needs may also include costs of refurbishment or other major capital expenditures. The capital plan will also set forth the anticipated sources of the necessary capital, which may include a line of credit or other loans established with respect to the investment, operating cash generated by the investment, additional equity investments from us or our joint venture partners or, when necessary, capital reserves. Any capital reserve would be established from the proceeds from sales of other investments, operating cash generated by other investments or other cash on hand. In some cases, a lender may require us to establish capital reserves for a particular investment. The capital plan for each investment will be adjusted through ongoing, regular reviews of our portfolio or as necessary to respond to unanticipated additional capital needs.

As of June 30, 2014, we had issued an aggregate of 20,976,300 in shares of our Series D Preferred Stock to iStar and BREDS for an aggregate of $209.8 million. The proceeds from the sale of Series D Preferred Stock were used to redeem the previously issued shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock and to acquire and reposition additional apartment communities. In the event of a public listing of our common stock, we would be obligated to redeem no less than 50% of the Series D Preferred Stock outstanding at a price that as of June 30, 2014 would have included a premium of $9.6 million. Series D Preferred Stock dividends are recorded as preferred dividends classified as interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, we incurred preferred dividends classified as interest expense of $7.9 million and $15.6 million, respectively, related to our Series D Preferred Stock.

On January 7, 2014, we sold 6,800,000 shares of our Series E Preferred Stock to iStar and BREDS for an aggregate of $68 million. On June 4, 2014, we sold 600,000 additional shares of Series E Preferred Stock to iStar and BREDS for an aggregate of $6 million. We used funds from such sales to acquire and reposition additional apartment communities. In the event of a public listing of our common stock prior to June 28, 2016, we are obligated to redeem no less than 50% of the Series E Preferred Stock outstanding at a price that as of June 30, 2014 would have included a premium of $4.9 million. Series E Preferred Stock dividends are recorded as preferred dividends classified as interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, we incurred preferred dividends classified as interest expense of $2.6 million and $4.9 million, respectively, related to our Series E Preferred Stock.

On January 15, 2014, we exercised our option to increase the aggregate borrowings available under the Credit Facility from $145.2 million to $165.9 million and drew down the amount of $20.7 million to fund the acquisition of one apartment community. On May 28, 2014, we sold an apartment community and paid down $4.4 million on the Credit Facility. During the second quarter of 2014, we paid principal of $800,000 on the Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2014, the amount available to be drawn on the incremental facility was $19.3 million and 13 of our properties were pledged as collateral under the Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2014, our current annual interest rate was 2.90% on principal outstanding of $160.7 million, which represents the Eurodollar Rate, based on a one-month interest period plus a margin of 2.75%.

On January 22, 2014, we entered into an agreement with Bank Hapoalim to extend to us a revolving line of credit in the aggregate principal amount of up to $10 million to be used for working capital and general corporate uses. Our revolving line of credit will mature on January 22, 2015, subject to an extension of the maturity date to January 22, 2016 if certain conditions are satisfied, which would have to be assessed at that time. We have pledged $1.5 million in cash and equity interest in certain of our subsidiaries as collateral. As of June 30, 2014, we had $3.9 million outstanding under the line of credit with $6.1 million available to be drawn. Our revolving line of credit bears an annual interest rate equal to the Eurodollar Rate plus a 3.00% margin. As of June 30, 2014, our current annual interest rate was 3.15% on principal outstanding of $3.9 million.

Other Liquidity Needs

In the event that there is a shortfall in net cash available due to various factors, including, without limitation, the timing of distributions or the timing of the collections of receivables, we may seek to obtain capital to pay distributions by means of secured or unsecured debt financing through one or more third parties. Subject to certain provisions of the Series D Preferred Stock and the

Table of Contents

Series E Preferred Stock, there currently are no limits or restrictions on the use of borrowings that would prohibit us from making the proceeds available for distribution up to the current annual dividend rate applicable to common stockholders and limited partnership unit holders.

As of June 30, 2014, we estimated that our expenditures for capital improvements and repositioning activities will require approximately $3.3 million and $4.1 million, respectively, in the remaining six months of 2014. As of June 30, 2014, we had $11.5 million of restricted cash in loan impounds and reserve accounts for such capital expenditures and any remaining expenditures will be paid with net cash from operations or third party capital. We cannot provide assurance, however, that we will not exceed these estimated expenditure levels or be able to obtain additional sources of financing on commercially favorable terms or at all to fund such expenditures.

If we experience lower occupancy levels, reduced rental rates, reduced revenues as a result of asset sales or increased capital expenditures and leasing costs compared to historical levels due to competitive market conditions for new and renewal leases, the effect would be a reduction of net cash provided by operating activities. If such a reduction of net cash provided by operating activities is realized, we may have a cash flow deficit in subsequent periods. Our estimate of net cash available is based on various assumptions, which are difficult to predict, including the levels of leasing activity and related leasing costs. Any changes in these assumptions could impact our financial results and our ability to fund working capital requirements, pay distributions to our stockholders, service our indebtedness and meet any unanticipated cash needs.

Cash Flows

Cash flows provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014 were $7.6 million, compared to cash flows provided by operating activities of $6.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, cash flows provided by operating activities primarily related to the operations of our 78 consolidated owned properties as of such period. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, cash flows provided by operating activities primarily related to the operations of our 42 properties owned as of such period.

Cash flows used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were $92.5 million and $173.9 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, cash flows used in investing activities related to the acquisition of apartment communities of $92.8 million and capital expenditures of $17.3 million. This was offset by proceeds from the sale of operating properties of $13.9 million, the change in deposits on real estate acquisitions of $2.3 million, and the change in restricted cash for capital replacement reserves of $1 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, cash flows used in investing activities related to the acquisition of real estate operating properties of $171.0 million, capital expenditures of $2.6 million, changes in real estate deposits of $11.2 million and the change in restricted cash for capital replacement reserves of $2.4 million. This was offset by proceeds from the sale of an operating property of $13.3 million.

Cash flows provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014 were $95.8 million, compared to cash flows provided by financing activities of $168.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, cash flows provided by financing activities related primarily to the proceeds from the issuance of redeemable preferred stock of $74 million, proceeds from the issuance of mortgage loan payables of $16.1 million, net proceeds on the Credit Facility of $19.9 million, and net proceeds on the line of credit of $3.9 million. This was offset primarily by the $5.9 million of payments on our mortgage loan payables, payments for deferred financing costs of $2.8 million, and distributions paid to our common stockholders and limited partnership unit holders in the aggregate amount of $8.3 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, cash flows provided by financing activities related primarily to the proceeds from the issuance of Series A Preferred Stock of $10.0 million and Series D Preferred Stock of $98.6 million, borrowings on mortgage loan payables of $79.4 million and borrowings on the Credit Facility of $114.3 million. This was offset by redemptions of the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock in the amounts of $50.0 million and $10.0 million, respectively, $51.1 million of payments on our mortgage loan payables, payments for prepayment penalties and deferred financing costs of $16.5 million, distributions to redeemable non-controlling interests in operating partnership of $3.5 million, distributions on LTIP Unit holders of $74,000 and distributions made to our stockholders in the amount of $2.3 million.

Distributions

Common Stock

The amount of any distributions we pay to our common stockholders is determined by our board of directors and is dependent on a number of factors, including funds available for the payment of distributions, our financial condition, capital expenditure requirements and annual distribution requirements needed to maintain our status as a REIT under the Code. We have not established any limit on the amount of offering proceeds or borrowings that may be used to fund distributions, except that, in accordance with our organizational documents and Maryland law, we may not make distributions that would: (1) cause us to be unable to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or (2) cause our total assets to be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus senior liquidation preferences. Furthermore, we are restricted, subject to certain exceptions, from declaring or paying any distributions (or

 

40


Table of Contents

setting aside any funds for the payment of distributions) on our common stock, unless full cumulative distributions on the Series D Preferred Stock and the Series E Preferred Stock have been declared and either paid or set aside for payment in full for all past distributions periods.

Our board of directors approved the distribution rate to be an amount equal to a 3.00% annualized rate based upon a purchase price of $10.00 per share, and a 3.68% annualized rate, based upon our most recent estimated value of our shares of $8.15 per share. Our board of directors authorizes distributions based on month-end record dates, which we pay monthly in arrears.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, we paid aggregate distributions of $3.8 million ($2.7 million in cash and $1.1 million of which was reinvested in shares of our common stock pursuant to the DRIP), as compared to cash flows provided by operating activities of $7.6 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, we paid aggregate distributions of $3.2 million ($2.3 million in cash and $930,000 of which was reinvested in shares of our common stock pursuant to the DRIP), as compared to cash flows provided by operating activities of $6.6 million. From our inception through June 30, 2014, we paid cumulative distributions of approximately $56.3 million ($34.9 million in cash and $21.4 million of which was reinvested in shares of our common stock pursuant to the DRIP), as compared to cumulative cash flows provided by operating activities of $23.4 million. The cumulative distributions paid in excess of our cash flows provided by operating activities were paid primarily from net proceeds from our public offerings of common stock. Our distributions of amounts in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits have resulted in a return of capital to our stockholders.

Limited Partnership Units

The operating partnership agreement provides that our operating partnership will distribute to the partners (subject to certain limitations) cash from operations on a quarterly basis (or more frequently, if we so elect) in accordance with the percentage interests of the partners. We, as the general partner of our operating partnership, will determine the amounts of such distributions in our sole discretion. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, we paid aggregate distributions of $5.8 million ($5.6 million in cash and $209,000 of which was reinvested in limited partnership units) to holders of limited partnership units in our operating partnership. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, we paid aggregate distributions of $3.6 million ($3.5 million in cash and $91,000 of which was reinvested in limited partnership units) to holders of limited partnership units in our operating partnership. Distributions accrue at month-end and are payable monthly in arrears. Limited partnership unit distributions were paid at a rate of $0.025 per unit, which is equal to the distribution rate paid to the common stockholders. The distribution rights of the holders of limited partnership units in our operating partnership are subject to the rights, preferences and priorities with respect to distributions to holders of preferred partnership units.

LTIP Units

The long-term incentive plan units, or LTIP Units, rank pari passu with the limited partnership units as to the payment of distributions. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we paid aggregate distributions of $111,000 and $74,000, respectively, to holders of our LTIP Units. Distributions were paid at a rate of $0.025 per unit, which is equal to the distribution rate paid to the common stockholders. Distributions accrue at month-end and are payable monthly in arrears.

Preferred Stock

Prior to our redemption on June 28, 2013, holders of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock were entitled to a 9.75% annual distribution rate based upon a $10.00 per share value. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, we paid aggregate distributions on the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock of $4.4 million. There were $31,000 of aggregate accumulated distributions accrued but not paid to holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock as of June 30, 2013, which were paid in full in July 2013. Holders of shares of our Series D Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative distributions of 14.47% per annum based upon a $10.00 per share value. A portion of the cumulative cash distribution equal to 8.75% per annum is payable in cash on the 15th day of each month while the remaining amount is accrued and must be paid prior to the redemption of the Series D Preferred Stock. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, we paid $9.3 million in distributions to holders of the Series D Preferred Stock. We did not pay any distributions for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The aggregate accumulated distributions accrued but not paid to holders of the Series D Preferred Stock as of June 30, 2014 and 2013 were approximately $9.3 million and $68,000, respectively. The Series D Preferred Stock rank senior to our common stock with respect to distribution rights and rights upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company.

Holders of shares of our Series E Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative distributions of 14.47% per annum based upon a $10.00 per share value. A portion of the cumulative cash distribution equal to 9.25% per annum is payable in cash on the 15th day of each month while the remaining amount is accrued and must be paid prior to the redemption of the Series E Preferred Stock. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, we paid $4.3 million in distributions to holders of the Series E Preferred Stock. The aggregate accumulated distributions accrued but not paid to holders of the Series E Preferred Stock as of June 30, 2014 were approximately

 

41


Table of Contents

$565,000 million. We did not pay or accrue any distributions to holders of our Series E Preferred Stock for the six months ended June 30, 2013, as there were no shares of Series E Preferred Stock outstanding for such period. The Series E Preferred Stock rank senior to our common stock with respect to distribution rights and rights upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company.

Sources of Distributions

For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we paid aggregate common stock distributions of $3.8 million and $3.2 million, respectively, which were paid 100% from cash flows for such period. Therefore, our management believes our current common stock distribution policy is sustainable at this time. From our inception through June 30, 2014, we paid cumulative common stock distributions of $56.3 million. We paid $30.7 million of our cumulative aggregate common stock distributions, or 54.5%, from cash flows, and $25.6 million, or 45.5%, from proceeds from our public offerings of common stock. The payment of common stock distributions from sources other than cash flow provided by operating activities reduces the amount of proceeds available for investment and operations and may cause us to incur additional interest expense as a result of borrowed funds, if applicable.

Financing

Our audit committee reviews our aggregate borrowings, both secured and unsecured, at least quarterly to ensure that such borrowings are reasonable in relation to the combined fair market value of all of our real estate and real estate-related investments. For these purposes, the fair market value of each asset will be equal to the purchase price paid for the asset or, if the asset was appraised subsequent to the date of purchase, then the fair market value will be equal to the value reported in the most recent independent appraisal of the asset. We compute our leverage at least quarterly on a consistently-applied basis. We may also incur indebtedness to finance improvements to properties and, if necessary, for working capital needs or to meet the distribution requirements applicable to REITs under the federal income tax laws. As of June 30, 2014, our aggregate borrowings excluding the Series D Preferred Stock and the Series E Preferred Stock were 62.4% of the combined fair market value of all of our real estate and real estate-related investments.

Our Credit Facility contains representations, warranties, covenants, terms and conditions customary for transactions of this type, including a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, financial reporting requirements, limitations on liens, incurrence of debt, investments, mergers and asset dispositions, covenants to preserve corporate existence and comply with laws, covenants on the use of proceeds of the Credit Facility and default provisions, including defaults for non-payment, breach of representations and warranties, insolvency, non-performance of covenants, cross-defaults and guarantor defaults. The occurrence of an event of default under the Credit Facility could result in all loans and other obligations becoming immediately due and payable and the Credit Facility being terminated and allow the lenders to exercise all rights and remedies available to them with respect to the collateral.

Our revolving line of credit will mature on January 22, 2015, subject to an extension of the maturity date to January 22, 2016 if certain conditions are satisfied, which would have to be assessed at that time. We have pledged $1.5 million in cash and equity interest in certain of our subsidiaries as collateral. As of June 30, 2014, we had $3.9 million outstanding under the line of credit with a current annual interest rate of 3.15%.

Mortgage loan payables, net were $1.02 billion ($1 billion, excluding premium) as of June 30, 2014. We had 55 fixed rate and 12 variable rate mortgage loans with effective interest rates ranging from 2.16% to 6.58% per annum and a weighted average effective interest rate of 4.61% per annum as of June 30, 2014.

On March 14, 2013, as part of the consideration for the ELRM Transaction, we entered into an unsecured note payable to an affiliate of ELRH in the principal amount of $10 million. On December 20, 2013, we repaid $5 million of the outstanding principal amount on the note by issuing 613,497 shares of restricted common stock. We also issued an unsecured promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $284,000 to an affiliate of ELRH. We issued an additional unsecured note for $500,000 to Legacy Galleria, LLC. As of June 30, 2014, the outstanding principal amount under the unsecured notes payable to affiliates was $5.8 million.

For a discussion of our mortgage loan payables, net, our unsecured notes payable to affiliates, the Credit Facility and the line of credit see Note 7, Debt, to our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

Inflation

Our residents’ leases do not typically provide for rent escalations. However, they typically do not have terms that extend beyond 12 months. Accordingly, although on a short term basis we would be required to bear the impact of rising costs resulting from inflation, we have the opportunity to raise rental rates at least annually to offset such rising costs.

REIT Requirements

In order to continue to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we are required to make distributions to our stockholders of at least 90.0% of our annual taxable income, excluding net capital gains. In the event that there is a shortfall in net cash available due to factors, including, without limitation, the timing of such distributions or the timing of the collections of receivables, we may seek to obtain capital to pay distributions by means of secured or unsecured debt financing through one or more third parties. We may also pay distributions from cash from capital transactions, including, without limitation, the sale of one or more of our consolidated owned properties.

Commitments and Contingencies

For a discussion of our commitments and contingencies, see Note 9, Commitments and Contingencies, to our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

Debt Service Requirements

One of our principal liquidity needs is the payment of interest and principal on our outstanding indebtedness. We estimate that we will require approximately $49.5 million to pay interest and $275.3 million to pay principal on our outstanding mortgage and unsecured indebtedness in the next 12 months ended June 30, 2015, based on rates in effect as of June 30, 2014. We plan to investigate opportunities to extend, refinance or raise funds to repay each of these instruments prior to their respective maturities. As of June 30, 2014, we had 67 mortgage loan payables outstanding in the aggregate principal amount of $1.02 billion ($1 billion, excluding premium). As of June 30, 2014, we had $5.8 million outstanding under our unsecured notes payable to affiliates, $160.7 million outstanding under our Credit Facility and $3.9 million outstanding under our line of credit.

We are required by the terms of the applicable loan documents to meet certain financial covenants, such as minimum net worth and liquidity amounts, and financial reporting requirements. As of June 30, 2014, we were in compliance with all such requirements, and we expect to remain in compliance with all such requirements during the fiscal year ending 2014.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2014, we had investments in unconsolidated entities accounted for under the equity method. For information regarding our equity method investments, see Note 5, Investments in Unconsolidated Entities, to our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

Contractual Obligations

The following table provides information with respect to (i) the maturity and scheduled principal repayments of our mortgage indebtedness, unsecured notes, the Credit Facility and our line of credit; and (ii) interest payments on our mortgage indebtedness, unsecured notes, Credit Facility and our line of credit, as of June 30, 2014 (in thousands).

Funds from Operations and Adjusted Funds From Operations

Funds from operations, or FFO, is a non-GAAP financial performance measure defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts and widely recognized by investors and analysts as one measure of operating performance of a REIT. The FFO calculation excludes items such as real estate depreciation and amortization, gains and losses on the sale of real estate assets and impairment on depreciable assets. Historical accounting convention used for real estate assets requires straight-line depreciation of buildings and improvements, which implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, it is management’s view, and we believe the view of many industry investors and analysts, that the presentation of operating results for a REIT using the historical accounting for depreciation is insufficient. In addition, FFO excludes gains and losses from the sale of real estate, which we believe provides management and investors with a helpful additional measure of the performance of our real estate portfolio, as it allows for comparisons, year to year, that reflect the impact on operations from trends in items such as occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, general, administrative and other expenses, and interest expenses. During the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we also chose to exclude from the

 

43


Table of Contents

calculation of FFO a taxable (expense)/benefit of $(220,000) and $286,000, respectively, from our Taxable REIT Subsidiary, or TRS, which is our Property Manager. During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we also chose to exclude from the calculation of FFO a taxable benefit of $223,000 and $3.1 million, respectively, from our TRS.

In addition to FFO, we use adjusted funds from operations, or AFFO, as a non-GAAP supplemental financial performance measure to evaluate the operating performance of our real estate portfolio. AFFO, as defined by our company, excludes from FFO acquisition-related expense, net, litigation related expense, incentive compensation — LTIP units, fair value changes, disposition right income, loss on debt and preferred stock extinguishments, expenses for preferred stock, amortization of net debt premium and amortization of above/(below) market leases. In evaluating the performance of our real estate portfolio over time, management employs business models and analyses that differentiate the costs to acquire investments from the investments’ revenues and expenses. Management believes that excluding acquisition-related expense, net from AFFO provides investors with supplemental performance information that is consistent with the performance models and analysis used by management, and provides investors a view of the performance of our portfolio over time, including after the time we cease to acquire properties on a frequent and regular basis. In calculating AFFO, we also exclude amortization of net debt premium and amortization of above/(below) market leases in accordance with the practice guidelines of the Investment Program Association, an industry trade group. We believe that AFFO enables investors to compare the performance of our portfolio with other REITs that have not recently engaged in acquisitions, as well as a comparison of our performance with that of other non-traded REITs, as AFFO, or an equivalent measure is routinely reported by non-traded REITs, and we believe often used by analysts and investors for comparison purposes. In addition to net income and cash flows from operations, as defined by GAAP, we believe both FFO and AFFO are helpful supplemental performance measures and useful in understanding the various ways in which our management evaluates the performance of our real estate portfolio in relation to management’s performance models, and in relation to the operating performance of other REITs. However, not all REITs calculate FFO and AFFO the same way, so comparisons with other REITs may not be meaningful. Furthermore, FFO and AFFO should not be considered as alternatives to net income or to cash flows from operations, and are not intended to be used as a liquidity measure indicative of cash flow available to fund our cash needs.

AFFO may provide investors with a useful indication of our future performance, particularly after our acquisition stage, and of the sustainability of our current distribution policy. However, because AFFO excludes acquisition-related expense, net, which are an important component in an analysis of the historical performance of a property, AFFO should not be construed as a historical performance measure.

Our calculation of FFO and AFFO, and reconciliation to net loss, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, is presented in the following table for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 (in thousands, except per share data).

Net Operating Income

Our net income results are primarily from net operating income, or NOI, generated from the operations of our apartment communities. NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as rental income and other property revenues less direct property rental expenses. Rental income represents gross market rent less adjustments for concessions and vacancy loss. Other property revenues consist primarily of utility re-billings as well as administrative, application and other fees charged to tenants, including amounts recorded in connection with early lease terminations. Rental expenses include real estate taxes, insurance, personnel, utilities, repairs and maintenance, administrative and marketing. We believe that NOI is useful for investors as it provides an accurate measure of the operating performance of our operating assets because NOI excludes certain items that are not associated with the management of our properties. Additionally, we believe that NOI is a widely accepted measure of comparative operating performance in the real estate community. However, our use of the term NOI may not be comparable to that of other real estate companies as they may have different methodologies for computing this amount.

Mortgage loan payables, net were $1.02 billion ($1 billion, excluding premium) as of June 30, 2014. As of June 30, 2014, we had 55 fixed rate and 12 variable rate loans with effective interest rates ranging from 2.16% to 6.58% per annum and a weighted average effective interest rate of 4.61% per annum. As of June 30, 2014, we had $765.7 million ($755.8 million, excluding premium) of fixed rate debt, or 75.2% of mortgage loans payable, at a weighted average interest rate of 5.25% per annum and $252.9 million of variable rate debt, or 24.8% of mortgage loans payable, at a weighted average effective interest rate of 2.70% per annum.

As of June 30, 2014, we had unsecured notes payable to affiliates outstanding in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $5.8 million, with a weighted average interest rate of 3.06% per annum. The maturity date for $5.3 million of our unsecured notes payable to affiliates is on the earliest of the fifth anniversary from the applicable date of issuance or the date of our company’s public offering of common stock on a national securities exchange. The maturity date for our $500,000 in unsecured notes payable to affiliates is August 3, 2015.

As of June 30, 2014, we had $160.7 million outstanding under the Credit Facility, with a weighted average effective interest rate of 2.90% per annum and a maturity date of March 7, 2015, subject to an extension of the maturity date to March 7, 2016 if certain conditions are satisfied, which would have to be assessed at that time. Certain mortgage loans payable, net were refinanced with the Credit Facility and were subject to prepayment penalties and write off of unamortized deferred financing costs that resulted in charges to earnings of $318,000 and $684,000 in the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, which were recorded in loss on debt and preferred debt extinguishment in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive operations.

The revolving line of credit will mature on January 22, 2015, subject to an extension of the maturity date to January 22, 2016 if certain conditions are satisfied, which would have to be assessed at that time. We have pledged $1.5 million in cash and equity interest in certain of our subsidiaries as collateral. As of June 30, 2014, we had $3.9 million outstanding under the line of credit with a current annual interest rate of 3.15%.

An increase in the variable interest rate on our 12 variable interest rate mortgage loans, the Credit Facility, and the line of credit constitutes a market risk. As of June 30, 2014, a 0.50% increase in one-month LIBOR would have increased our overall annual interest expense by $2.1 million, or 2.18%.

In addition to changes in interest rates, the value of our future properties is subject to fluctuations based on changes in local and regional economic conditions and changes in the creditworthiness of tenants, which may affect our ability to refinance our debt if necessary.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports pursuant to the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to us, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer and our chief accounting officer and chief operating officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, we recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as ours are designed to do, and we necessarily were required to apply our judgment in evaluating whether the benefits of the controls and procedures that we adopt outweigh their costs.

As required by Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) of the Exchange Act, an evaluation as of June 30, 2014 was conducted under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer and our chief accounting officer and chief operating officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operations our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer and our chief accounting officer and chief operating officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as of June 30, 2014, were effective.

(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. We are continuously seeking to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of our operations and our internal controls. This results in modifications to our processes throughout the Company. There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
