Third Quarter 2016 Financial Results

 

Net loss attributable to common stockholders for the third quarter of 2016 was $2.6 million, as compared to a net loss of $0.6 million in the prior year period. The change in net loss was primarily driven by positive increases in property NOI of $5.2 million and income of unconsolidated real estate joint ventures of $0.7 million due to the increase in the size of our invest-to-own portfolio, a gain on sale of real estate investments of $4.9 million offset by related increases in management fees of $1.0 million, interest expense of $2.3 million, depreciation and amortization expense of $3.2 million, loss on early extinguishment of debt of $2.4 million, and the preferred stock income and accretion allocation of $4.2 million.

AFFO for the third quarter of 2016 was $4.3 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, as compared to $4.4 million, or $0.22 per share in the prior year period. AFFO was impacted by increases in property NOI of $5.2 million arising from significant investment activity in the past year and in income of unconsolidated real estate joint ventures of $0.7 million caused by expanding the size of our invest-to-own portfolio, offset by higher interest expense of $2.0 million and the preferred stock income allocation of $3.9 million.

 

Same Store Portfolio Performance

 

Same store NOI for the third quarter of 2016 increased by 8.1% from the same period in the prior year. There was a 7.5% increase in same store property revenues as compared to the same prior year period, primarily attributable to a 4.7% increase in average rent per occupied unit, a 39 basis point increase in average occupancy and an additional 17 units acquired at our Lansbrook property and 15 additional units at Park & Kingston. Same store expenses increased 6.5%.

 

Dividend Details

 

On October 4, 2016, our board of directors authorized, and we declared, monthly dividends for the fourth quarter of 2016 equal to a quarterly rate of $0.29 per share on our Class A common stock, payable to the stockholders of record as of October 25, 2016, which was paid in cash on November 4, 2016, and as of November 25, 2016 and December 23, 2016, which will be paid in cash on December 5, 2016 and January 5, 2016, respectively.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

The foregoing supplemental financial data includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that we believe are helpful in understanding our business and performance, as further described below. Our definition and calculation of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from those of other REITs, and may, therefore, not be comparable.

 

Funds from Operations and Adjusted Funds from Operations

 

Funds from operations attributable to common stockholders (“FFO”) is a non-GAAP financial measure that is widely recognized as a measure of REIT operating performance. We consider FFO to be an appropriate supplemental measure of our operating performance as it is based on a net income analysis of property portfolio performance that excludes non-cash items such as depreciation. The 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 historically rise and fall with market conditions, presentations of operating results for a REIT, using historical accounting for depreciation, could be less informative. We define FFO, consistent with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or (“NAREIT's”) definition, as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, plus impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis.

 

In addition to FFO, we use adjusted funds from operations attributable to common stockholders (“AFFO”). AFFO is a computation made by analysts and investors to measure a real estate company's operating performance by removing the effect of items that do not reflect ongoing property operations. To calculate AFFO, we further adjust FFO by adding back certain items that are not added to net income in NAREIT's definition of FFO, such as acquisition expenses, equity based compensation expenses, and any other non-recurring or non-cash expenses, which are costs that do not relate to the operating performance of our properties, and subtracting recurring capital expenditures (and when calculating the quarterly incentive fee payable to our Manager only, we further adjust FFO to include any realized gains or losses on our real estate investments).

 

Our calculation of AFFO differs from the methodology used for calculating AFFO by certain other REITs and, accordingly, our AFFO may not be comparable to AFFO reported by other REITs. Our management utilizes FFO and AFFO as measures of our operating performance after adjustment for certain non-cash items, such as depreciation and amortization expenses, and acquisition expenses and pursuit costs that are required by GAAP to be expensed but may not necessarily be indicative of current operating performance and that may not accurately compare our operating performance between periods. Furthermore, although FFO, AFFO and other supplemental performance measures are defined in various ways throughout the REIT industry, we also believe that FFO and AFFO may provide us and our stockholders with an additional useful measure to compare our financial performance to certain other REITs. We also use AFFO for purposes of determining the quarterly incentive fee, if any, payable to our Manager.

 

Neither FFO nor AFFO is equivalent to net income, including net income attributable to common stockholders, or cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, FFO and AFFO do not represent amounts available for management's discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments or uncertainties. Neither FFO nor AFFO should be considered as an alternative to net income, including net income attributable to common stockholders, as an indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.

(1) The real estate depreciation and amortization amount includes our share of consolidated real estate-related depreciation and amortization of intangibles, less amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests, and our similar estimated share of unconsolidated depreciation and amortization, which is included in earnings of our unconsolidated real estate joint venture investments. 

 

(2) Pro forma AFFO for the three months ended September 30, 2016 assumes the investment of $155 million (consisting of available cash, earnest money deposits, expected loan proceeds, and net offering proceeds) had occurred on July 1, 2016: (i) additional investment of approximately $2 million in the Lake Boone convertible preferred equity investment; (ii) additional investment of approximately $17 million in the West Morehead convertible preferred equity investment; (iii) investment of approximately $23 million in a convertible mezzanine loan structure in connection with a joint venture, which entitles us to invest in Jacksonville MSA; (iv) investment of approximately $17 million in convertible preferred equity in the development asset in the Dallas MSA; (v) investment of approximately $3 million in a convertible mezzanine loan structure in connection with a joint venture, which entitles us to invest in Ft. Lauderdale FL; (vi) investment of approximately $9 million in a convertible mezzanine loan structure in a development asset the Company has under binding LOI in Boca Raton MSA; (vii) investment of approximately $22 million in Tenside Apartments in Georgia which closed on July 14, 2016; and (viii) investment of approximately $24 million in an operating asset located in the Atlanta MSA. Proforma guidance also assumes that $38 million is invested 65% in stabilized properties at a nominal 5.75% cap rate with interest expense at a rate of 3.75%, and 35% invested in convertible preferred equity development assets. The pro forma guidance is being presented solely for purposes of illustrating the potential impact of these pipeline transactions, as well as future investments to be made with funds we have available for investment, as if they had occurred at July 1, 2016, based on information currently available to management and assumptions management has made with respect to our future pipeline. The Company is providing no assurances that any of the above transactions are probable, or that they will close or that management will identify or acquire investments consistent with our pipeline assumptions, and the failure to do so would significantly impact pro forma guidance. The actual timing of these investments, if and when made, will vary materially from the assumed timing reflected in the pro forma guidance, and actual quarterly results will differ significantly from the pro forma guidance shown above. Investors should not rely on pro forma guidance as a forecast of the actual performance of the Company.

Earnings Before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA")

 

EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, calculated on a consolidated basis. We consider EBITDA to be an appropriate supplemental measure of our performance because it eliminates depreciation, income taxes, interest and non-recurring items, which permits investors to view income from operations unclouded by non-cash items such as depreciation, amortization, the cost of debt or non-recurring items. Below is a reconciliation of net (loss) income attributable to common stockholders to EBITDA (unaudited and dollars in thousands).

 

   Three Months Ended   Nine Months Ended 
   September 30,   September 30, 
   2016   2015   2016   2015

Net (loss) income attributable to noncontrolling interest   (96)   (28)   (246)   5,884 
Interest expense   5,274    2,967    14,091    7,985 
Depreciation and amortization   7,166    3,993    22,465    10,499 
Preferred stock accretion   275    -    568    -

EBITDA  $10,386   $8,340   $31,204   $20,217 

 

Recurring Capital Expenditures

 

We define recurring capital expenditures as expenditures that are incurred at every property and exclude development, investment, revenue enhancing and non-recurring capital expenditures.

 

Non-Recurring Capital Expenditures

 

We define non-recurring capital expenditures as expenditures for significant projects that upgrade units or common areas and projects that are revenue enhancing.

 

Same Store Properties

 

Same store properties are conventional multifamily residential apartments which were owned and operational for the entire periods presented, including each comparative period.

 

Property Net Operating Income ("Property NOI")

 

We believe that net operating income, or NOI, is a useful measure of our operating performance. We define NOI as total property revenues less total property operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization and interest. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. We believe that this measure provides an operating perspective not immediately apparent from GAAP operating income or net income. We use NOI to evaluate our performance on a same store and non-same store basis because NOI measures the core operations of property performance by excluding corporate level expenses and other items not related to property operating performance and captures trends in rental housing and property operating expenses. However, NOI should only be used as an alternative measure of our financial performance.

The following table reflects same store and non-same store contributions to consolidated NOI together with a reconciliation of NOI to net (loss) income attributable to common stockholders as computed in accordance with GAAP for the periods presented (unaudited and amounts in thousands):

(1)    The real estate depreciation and amortization amount includes our share of consolidated real estate-related depreciation and amortization of intangibles, less amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests, and our similar estimated share of unconsolidated depreciation and amortization, which is included in earnings of our unconsolidated real estate joint venture investments.

(3)    Total weighted average shares for the quarter, including OP units of 304,816, was 21,214,543. AFFO related to the OP units is excluded from the calculation above. When including both, AFFO attributable to OP units and 304,816 of OP units in the weighted average share count, in the above calculation, AFFO is $0.21 per share.

 

(4) Pro forma AFFO for the three months ended September 30, 2016 assumes the investment of $155 million (consisting of available cash, earnest money deposits, expected loan proceeds, and net offering proceeds) had occurred on July 1, 2016: (i) additional investment of approximately $2 million in the Lake Boone convertible preferred equity investment; (ii) additional investment of approximately $17 million in the West Morehead convertible preferred equity investment; (iii) investment of approximately $23 million in a convertible mezzanine loan structure in connection with a joint venture, which entitles us to invest in Jacksonville MSA; (iv) investment of approximately $17 million in convertible preferred equity in the development asset in the Dallas MSA; (v) investment of approximately $3 million in a convertible mezzanine loan structure in connection with a joint venture, which entitles us to invest in Ft. Lauderdale FL; (vi) investment of approximately $9 million in a convertible mezzanine loan structure in a development asset the Company has under binding LOI in Boca Raton MSA; (vii) investment of approximately $22 million in Tenside Apartments in Georgia which closed on July 14, 2016; and (viii) investment of approximately $24 million in an operating asset located in the Atlanta MSA. Proforma guidance also assumes that $38 million is invested 65% in stabilized properties at a nominal 5.75% cap rate with interest expense at a rate of 3.75%, and 35% invested in convertible preferred equity development assets. The pro forma guidance is being presented solely for purposes of illustrating the potential impact of these pipeline transactions, as well as future investments to be made with funds we have available for investment, as if they had occurred at July 1, 2016, based on information currently available to management and assumptions management has made with respect to our future pipeline. The Company is providing no assurances that any of the above transactions are probable, or that they will close or that management will identify or acquire investments consistent with our pipeline assumptions, and the failure to do so would significantly impact pro forma guidance. The actual timing of these investments, if and when made, will vary materially from the assumed timing reflected in the pro forma guidance, and actual quarterly results will differ significantly from the pro forma guidance shown above. Investors should not rely on pro forma guidance as a forecast of the actual performance of the Company.

The actual timing of these investments, if and when made, will vary materially from the assumed timing reflected in the proforma guidance, and actual quarterly results will differ significantly from the proforma guidance shown above. Investors should not rely on pro forma guidance as a forecast of the actual performance of the Company.

 

(8) The Company has not reconciled projected and pro forma Adjusted Funds From Operations Attributable to Common Shareholders per share (“AFFO”) guidance to the corresponding GAAP financial measure because it does not provide guidance for various reconciling items. The Company is unable to provide guidance for these reconciling items since certain items that impact net income are outside of its control and cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, reconciliations to the corresponding GAAP financial measures are not available.

Bluerock Residential Growth REIT, Inc.

Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

 

The foregoing supplemental financial data includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that we believe are helpful in understanding our business, as further described below. Our definition and calculation of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from those of other REITs, and may, therefore, not be comparable.

 

Funds from Operations and Adjusted Funds from Operations

Funds from operations attributable to common stockholders (“FFO”), is a non-GAAP financial measure that is widely recognized as a measure of REIT operating performance. We consider FFO to be an appropriate supplemental measure of our operating performance as it is based on a net income analysis of property portfolio performance that excludes non-cash items such as depreciation. The 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 historically rise and fall with market conditions, presentations of operating results for a REIT, using historical accounting for depreciation, could be less informative. We define FFO, consistent with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or (“NAREIT's”), definition, as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, plus impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis.

 

In addition to FFO, we use adjusted funds from operations attributable to common stockholders (“AFFO”). AFFO is a computation made by analysts and investors to measure a real estate company's operating performance by removing the effect of items that do not reflect ongoing property operations. To calculate AFFO, we further adjust FFO by adding back certain items that are not added to net income in NAREIT's definition of FFO, such as acquisition expenses, equity based compensation expenses, and any other non-recurring or non-cash expenses, which are costs that do not relate to the operating performance of our properties, and subtracting recurring capital expenditures (and when calculating the quarterly incentive fee payable to our Manager only, we further adjust FFO to include any realized gains or losses on our real estate investments).

 

Our calculation of AFFO differs from the methodology used for calculating AFFO by certain other REITs and, accordingly, our AFFO may not be comparable to AFFO reported by other REITs. Our management utilizes FFO and AFFO as measures of our operating performance after adjustment for certain non-cash items, such as depreciation and amortization expenses, and acquisition expenses and pursuit costs that are required by GAAP to be expensed but may not necessarily be indicative of current operating performance and that may not accurately compare our operating performance between periods. Furthermore, although FFO, AFFO and other supplemental performance measures are defined in various ways throughout the REIT industry, we also believe that FFO and AFFO may provide us and our stockholders with an additional useful measure to compare our financial performance to certain other REITs. We also use AFFO for purposes of determining the quarterly incentive fee, if any, payable to our Manager.

 

Neither FFO nor AFFO is equivalent to net income or cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, FFO and AFFO do not represent amounts available for management's discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments or uncertainties. Neither FFO nor AFFO should be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.

 

We have acquired interests in six additional properties and five investments accounted for on the equity method of accounting and sold two properties subsequent to September 30, 2015. The results presented in the table below are not directly comparable and should not be considered an indication of our future operating performance (unaudited and dollars in thousands, except share and per share data).

 

Recurring Capital Expenditures

 

We define recurring capital expenditures as expenditures that are incurred at every property and exclude development, investment, revenue enhancing and non-recurring capital expenditures.

 

Non-Recurring Capital Expenditures

 

We define non-recurring capital expenditures as expenditures for significant projects that upgrade units or common areas and projects that are revenue enhancing.

 

Same Store Properties

 

Same store properties are conventional multifamily residential apartments which were owned and operational for the entire periods presented.

Earnings Before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA")

 

EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, calculated on a consolidated basis. We consider EBITDA to be an appropriate supplemental measure of our performance because it eliminates depreciation, income taxes, interest and non-recurring items, which permits investors to view income from operations unclouded by non-cash items such as depreciation, amortization, the cost of debt or non-recurring items. Below is a reconciliation of net (loss) income applicable to common shares to EBITDA.

Property Net Operating Income ("Property NOI")

 

We believe that net operating income, or NOI, is a useful measure of our operating performance. We define NOI as total property revenues less total property operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization and interest. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. We believe that this measure provides an operating perspective not immediately apparent from GAAP operating income or net income. We use NOI to evaluate our performance on a same store and non-same store basis because NOI measures the core operations of property performance by excluding corporate level expenses and other items not related to property operating performance and captures trends in rental housing and property operating expenses. However, NOI should only be used as an alternative measure of our financial performance.

 

The following table reflects same store and non-same store contributions to consolidated NOI together with a reconciliation of NOI to net (loss) income attributable to common stockholders as computed in accordance with GAAP for the periods presented:
