CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 18 – GLOBAL INCORPORATED
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Note 1. Organization

Organization

Corporate Property Associates 18 – Global Incorporated, or CPA®:18 – Global, together with its consolidated subsidiaries, is a publicly owned, non-traded real estate investment trust, or REIT, that invests primarily in a diversified portfolio of income-producing commercial real estate properties leased to companies and other real estate related assets, both domestically and internationally. We were formed in 2012 and are managed by W. P. Carey Inc., or WPC, through one of its subsidiaries, or collectively, our Advisor. As a REIT, we are not subject to U.S. federal income taxation as long as we satisfy certain requirements, principally relating to the nature of our income and the level of our distributions, among other factors. We earn revenue primarily by leasing the properties we own to single corporate tenants, predominantly on a triple-net lease basis, which requires the tenant to pay substantially all of the costs associated with operating and maintaining the property. Revenue is subject to fluctuation due to the timing of new lease transactions, lease terminations, lease expirations, contractual rent adjustments, tenant defaults, sales of properties, and changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Substantially all of our assets and liabilities are held by CPA®:18 Limited Partnership, or the Operating Partnership, and at June 30, 2017 we owned 99.97% of general and limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership. The remaining interest in the Operating Partnership is held by a subsidiary of WPC.

At June 30, 2017, our portfolio was comprised of full or partial ownership interests in 59 properties, the majority of which were fully-occupied and triple-net leased to 101 tenants totaling 10.1 million square feet. The remainder of our portfolio was comprised of our full or partial ownership interests in 69 self-storage properties and nine multi-family properties totaling 6.8 million square feet.

We operate in three reportable business segments: Net Lease, Self Storage, and Multi Family. Our Net Lease segment includes our investments in net-leased properties, whether they are accounted for as operating leases or direct financing leases. Our Self Storage segment is comprised of our investments in self-storage properties. Our Multi Family segment is comprised of our investments in multi-family residential properties and student-housing developments. In addition, we have an All Other category that includes our notes receivable investments (Note 12). Our reportable business segments and All Other category are the same as our reporting units.

We raised aggregate gross proceeds in our initial public offering of approximately $1.2 billion through April 2, 2015, which is the date we closed our offering. We have fully invested the proceeds from our initial public offering. In addition, from inception through June 30, 2017, $100.0 million and $26.4 million of distributions to our shareholders were reinvested in our Class A and Class C common stock, respectively, through our Distribution Reinvestment Plan, or DRIP.

Note 2. Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

Our interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not necessarily include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair statement of our consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP.
 
In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial information for the interim periods presented in this Report reflects all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. Our interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2016, which are included in the 2016 Annual Report, as certain disclosures that would substantially duplicate those contained in the audited consolidated financial statements have not been included in this Report. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of operating results for an entire year.
 


CPA®:18 – Global 6/30/2017 10-Q 7


Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and the disclosure of contingent amounts in our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Basis of Consolidation

Our consolidated financial statements reflect all of our accounts, including those of our controlled subsidiaries. The portions of equity in consolidated subsidiaries that are not attributable, directly or indirectly, to us are presented as noncontrolling interests. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

When we obtain an economic interest in an entity, we evaluate the entity to determine if it should be deemed a variable interest entity, or VIE, and, if so, whether we are the primary beneficiary and are therefore required to consolidate the entity. We apply accounting guidance for consolidation of VIEs to certain entities in which the equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. Fixed price purchase and renewal options within a lease, as well as certain decision-making rights within a loan or joint-venture agreement, can cause us to consider an entity a VIE. Limited partnerships and other similar entities that operate as a partnership will be considered a VIE unless the limited partners hold substantive kick-out rights or participation rights. Significant judgment is required to determine whether a VIE should be consolidated. We review the contractual arrangements provided for in the partnership agreement or other related contracts to determine whether the entity is considered a VIE and to establish whether we have any variable interests in the VIE. We then compare our variable interests, if any, to those of the other variable interest holders to determine which party is the primary beneficiary of the VIE based on whether the entity (i) has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE and (ii) has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The liabilities of these VIEs are non-recourse to us and can only be satisfied from each VIE’s respective assets.

At June 30, 2017, we considered 13 entities to be VIEs, 12 of which we consolidated as we are considered the primary beneficiary. We previously determined that a build-to-suit project in Eindhoven, the Netherlands was a VIE. In May 2017, we made our final payment to the developer for this project and now own 100% of the voting rights (Note 4). As such, we no longer determine it to be a VIE.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


At both June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had one unconsolidated VIE, which we account for under the equity method of accounting. We do not consolidate this entity because we are not the primary beneficiary and the nature of our involvement in the activities of the entity allows us to exercise significant influence on, but does not give us power over, decisions that significantly affect the economic performance of the entity. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the net carrying amount of this equity investment was $20.8 million and $14.7 million, respectively, and our maximum exposure to loss in this entity is limited to our investment. 

At times, the carrying value of our equity investment may fall below zero for certain investments. We intend to fund our share of the jointly owned investment’s future operating deficits should the need arise. However, we have no legal obligation to pay for any of the liabilities of such investments nor do we have any legal obligation to fund the operating deficits. At June 30, 2017, our sole equity investment did not have a carrying value below zero.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. In the second quarter of 2017, we reclassified in-place lease intangible assets, net and other intangible assets, net to be included within Net investments in real estate in our consolidated balance sheets. The accumulated amortization on these assets is now included in Accumulated depreciation and amortization in our consolidated balance sheets. Prior period balances have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model requiring a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount reflecting the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 does not apply to our lease revenues, which constitute a majority of our revenues, but will apply to reimbursed tenant costs and revenues generated from our operating properties. We will adopt this guidance for our annual and interim periods beginning January 1, 2018 using one of two methods: retrospective restatement for each reporting period presented at the time of adoption, or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying this guidance recognized at the date of initial application. We have not decided which method of adoption we will use. We are evaluating the impact of the new standard and have not yet determined if it will have a material impact on our business or our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 outlines a new model for accounting by lessees, whereby their rights and obligations under substantially all leases, existing and new, would be capitalized and recorded on the balance sheet. For lessors, however, the accounting remains largely unchanged from the current model, with the distinction between operating and financing leases retained, but updated to align with certain changes to the lessee model and the new revenue recognition standard. The new standard also replaces existing sale-leaseback guidance with a new model applicable to both lessees and lessors. Additionally, the new standard requires extensive quantitative and qualitative disclosures. ASU 2016-02 is effective for GAAP public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application will be permitted for all entities. The new standard must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition of the new guidance and provides for certain practical expedients. Transition will require application of the new model at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. The ASU is expected to impact our consolidated financial statements as we have certain operating office and land lease arrangements for which we are the lessee. We are evaluating the impact of the new standard and have not yet determined if it will have a material impact on our business or our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses. ASU 2016-13 introduces a new model for estimating credit losses based on current expected credit losses for certain types of financial instruments, including loans receivable, held-to-maturity debt securities, and net investments in direct financing leases, amongst other financial instruments. ASU 2016-13 also modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities and expands the disclosure requirements regarding an entity’s assumptions, models, and methods for estimating the allowance for losses. ASU 2016-13 will be effective for public business entities in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early application of the guidance permitted. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2016-13 on our consolidated financial statements.



CPA®:18 – Global 6/30/2017 10-Q 9


Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. ASU 2016-15 intends to reduce diversity in practice for certain cash flow classifications, including, but not limited to (i) debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs, (ii) contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, (iii) proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims, and (iv) distributions received from equity method investees. ASU 2016-15 will be effective for public business entities in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early application of the guidance permitted. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2016-15 on our consolidated financial statements and will adopt the standard for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2018.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-17, Consolidation (Topic 810): Interests Held through Related Parties That Are under Common Control. ASU 2016-17 changes how a reporting entity that is a decision maker should consider indirect interests in a VIE held through an entity under common control. If a decision maker must evaluate whether it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, it will only need to consider its proportionate indirect interest in the VIE held through a common control party. ASU 2016-17 amends ASU 2015-02, which we adopted on January 1, 2016, and which currently directs the decision maker to treat the common control party’s interest in the VIE as if the decision maker held the interest itself. ASU 2016-17 is effective for public business entities in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted ASU 2016-17 as of January 1, 2017 on a prospective basis. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. ASU 2016-18 intends to reduce diversity in practice for the classification and presentation of changes in restricted cash on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-18 requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-18 will be effective for public business entities in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2016-18 on our consolidated financial statements and will adopt the standard for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2018.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. ASU 2017-01 intends to clarify the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. Under the current implementation guidance in Topic 805, there are three elements of a business: inputs, processes, and outputs. While an integrated set of assets and activities, collectively referred to as a “set,” that is a business usually has outputs, outputs are not required to be present. ASU 2017-01 provides a screen to determine when a set is not a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. ASU 2017-01 will be effective for public business entities in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. We elected to early adopt ASU 2017-01 on January 1, 2017 on a prospective basis. While our acquisitions have historically been classified as either business combinations or asset acquisitions, certain acquisitions that were classified as business combinations by us likely would have been considered asset acquisitions under the new standard. As a result, transaction costs are more likely to be capitalized since we expect most of our future acquisitions to be classified as asset acquisitions under this new standard. In addition, goodwill that was previously allocated to businesses that were sold or held for sale will no longer be allocated and written off upon sale if future sales were deemed to be sales of assets and not businesses.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. ASU 2017-04 removes step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation. A goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. All other goodwill impairment guidance will remain largely unchanged. Entities will continue to have the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine if a quantitative impairment test is necessary. ASU 2017-04 will be effective for public business entities in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years in which a goodwill impairment test is performed, with early adoption permitted. We adopted ASU 2017-04 as of April 1, 2017 on a prospective basis. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-05, Other Income — Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20). ASU 2017-05 clarifies that a financial asset is within the scope of Subtopic 610-20 if it meets the definition of an in substance nonfinancial asset. The amendments define the term “in substance nonfinancial asset,” in part, as a financial asset promised to a counterparty in a contract if substantially all of the fair value of the assets (recognized and unrecognized) that are promised to the counterparty in the contract is concentrated in nonfinancial assets. If substantially all of the fair value of the assets that are promised to the counterparty in a contract is concentrated in nonfinancial assets, then all of the financial assets promised to the counterparty are in substance nonfinancial assets within the scope of Subtopic 610-20. This amendment also clarifies that nonfinancial assets within the scope of Subtopic 610-20 may include nonfinancial assets transferred within a legal entity to a counterparty. For example, a parent company may transfer control of nonfinancial assets by transferring ownership interests in a consolidated subsidiary. ASU 2017-05 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early application permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2017-05 on our consolidated financial statements.

Note 3. Agreements and Transactions with Related Parties

Transactions with Our Advisor

We have an advisory agreement with our Advisor whereby our Advisor performs certain services for us under a fee arrangement, including the identification, evaluation, negotiation, purchase, and disposition of real estate and related assets and mortgage loans; day-to-day management; and the performance of certain administrative duties. We also reimburse our Advisor for general and administrative duties performed on our behalf. The advisory agreement has a term of one year and may be renewed for successive one-year periods. We may terminate the advisory agreement upon 60 days’ written notice without cause or penalty.

Loans from WPC

In July 2016, our board of directors and the board of directors of WPC approved unsecured loans from WPC to us, at the sole discretion of WPC’s management, of up to $50.0 million in the aggregate, at a rate equal to the rate at which WPC can borrow funds under its senior credit facility, for acquisition funding purposes.

On October 31, 2016, we borrowed $27.5 million from WPC to partially finance a new investment, and that amount remained outstanding at December 31, 2016. The annual interest rate equaled London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, as of the loan date plus 1.1% through February 22, 2017. After that date, the annual interest rate equals LIBOR plus 1.0%, reflecting the lower rate available under WPC’s amended and restated senior credit facility. The scheduled maturity date of the loan is October 31, 2017.

On May 15, 2017, we borrowed an additional $11.2 million from WPC to partially finance the final payment to the developer for a build-to-suit project in Eindhoven, the Netherlands (Note 4). The scheduled maturity date of the loan is May 15, 2018. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we repaid $4.5 million to WPC, and as a result, a total of $34.6 million remains outstanding, including accrued interest, to WPC at June 30, 2017.

Subsequent to June 30, 2017, we repaid an additional $15.2 million of loans outstanding to WPC (Note 13).

Asset Management Fees

Pursuant to the advisory agreement, our Advisor is entitled to an annual asset management fee ranging from 0.5% to 1.5%, depending on the type of investment and based on the average market value or average equity value, as applicable, of our investments. Asset management fees are payable in cash and/or shares of our Class A common stock at our option, after consultation with our Advisor. If our Advisor receives all or a portion of its fees in shares, the number of shares issued is determined by dividing the dollar amount of fees by our most recently published estimated net asset value per share, or NAV, per Class A share which was $7.90 as of March 31, 2017. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, our Advisor received its asset management fees in shares of our Class A common stock. At June 30, 2017, our Advisor owned 2,915,292 shares, or 2.1%, of our Class A common stock outstanding. Asset management fees are included in Property expenses in the consolidated financial statements.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


Annual Distribution and Shareholder Servicing Fee

Carey Financial LLC, or Carey Financial, the broker-dealer subsidiary of our Advisor, received an annual distribution and shareholder servicing fee from us in connection with our Class C common stock, which it may have re-allowed to selected dealers. The amount of the annual distribution and shareholder servicing fee is 1.0% of the most recently published NAV of our Class C common stock. The annual distribution and shareholder servicing fee accrues daily and is payable quarterly in arrears. We will no longer incur the annual distribution and shareholder servicing fee beginning on the date at which, in the aggregate, underwriting compensation from all sources, including the annual distribution and shareholder servicing fee, any organizational and offering fee paid for underwriting and underwriting compensation paid by WPC and its affiliates, reaches 10.0% of the gross proceeds from our initial public offering, which it had not yet reached as of June 30, 2017. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we recorded a liability of $6.6 million and $7.4 million, respectively, within Due to affiliate in the consolidated financial statements to reflect the present value of the estimated future payments of the annual distribution and shareholder servicing fee.

Acquisition and Disposition Fees

Our Advisor receives acquisition fees, a portion of which is payable upon acquisition, while the remaining portion is subordinated to a preferred return of a non-compounded cumulative distribution of 5.0% per annum (based initially on our invested capital). The initial acquisition fee and subordinated acquisition fee are 2.5% and 2.0%, respectively, of the aggregate total cost of our portion of each investment for all investments, other than those in readily marketable real estate securities purchased in the secondary market, for which our Advisor will not receive any acquisition fees. Deferred acquisition fees are scheduled to be paid in three equal annual installments following the quarter in which a property was purchased and are subject to the preferred return described above. The preferred return was achieved as of the periods ended June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. Unpaid deferred acquisition fees are included in Due to affiliate in the consolidated financial statements and bear interest at an annual rate of 2.0%. The cumulative total acquisition costs, including acquisition fees paid to the advisor, may not exceed 6.0% of the aggregate contract purchase price of all investments, which is measured at the end of each year.

In addition, pursuant to the advisory agreement, our Advisor may be entitled to receive a disposition fee equal to the lesser of (i) 50.0% of the competitive real estate commission (as defined in the advisory agreement) or (ii) 3.0% of the contract sales price of the investment being sold. These fees are paid at the discretion of our board of directors.

Personnel and Overhead Reimbursements

Under the terms of the advisory agreement, our Advisor allocates a portion of its personnel and overhead expenses to us and the other entities that are managed by WPC and its affiliates, including Corporate Property Associates 17 – Global, or CPA®:17 – Global; Carey Watermark Investors Incorporated, or CWI 1; Carey Watermark Investors 2 Incorporated, or CWI 2; Carey Credit Income Fund, or CCIF; and Carey European Housing Fund I L.P., or CESH I; which are collectively referred to as the Managed Programs. Our Advisor allocates these expenses to us on the basis of our trailing four quarters of reported revenues in comparison to those of WPC and other entities managed by WPC and its affiliates.

We reimburse our Advisor for various expenses it incurs in the course of providing services to us. We reimburse certain third-party expenses paid by our Advisor on our behalf, including property-specific costs, professional fees, office expenses, and business development expenses. In addition, we reimburse our Advisor for the allocated costs of personnel and overhead in managing our day-to-day operations, including accounting services, stockholder services, corporate management, and property management and operations. We do not reimburse our Advisor for the cost of personnel if these personnel provide services for transactions for which our Advisor receives a transaction fee, such as for acquisitions and dispositions. Under the advisory agreement currently in place, the amount of applicable personnel costs allocated to us was capped at 2.2% for 2016 of pro rata lease revenues for the year. Beginning in 2017, the cap decreases to 2.0% of pro rata lease revenues for the year. Costs related to our Advisor’s legal transactions group are based on a schedule of expenses relating to services performed for different types of transactions, such as financing, lease amendments, and dispositions, among other categories, and includes 0.25% of the total investment cost of an acquisition. In general, personnel and overhead reimbursements are included in General and administrative expenses in the consolidated financial statements. However, we capitalize certain of the costs related to our Advisor’s legal transactions group if the costs relate to a transaction that is not considered to be a business combination.

Excess Operating Expenses
 
Our Advisor is obligated to reimburse us for the amount by which our operating expenses exceeds the “2%/25% guidelines” (the greater of 2% of average invested assets or 25% of net income) as defined in the advisory agreement for any 12-month period, subject to certain conditions. For the most recent four trailing quarters, our operating expenses were below this threshold.

Available Cash Distributions

WPC’s interest in the Operating Partnership entitles it to receive distributions of 10.0% of the available cash generated by the Operating Partnership, referred to as the Available Cash Distribution, which is defined as cash generated from operations, excluding capital proceeds, as reduced by operating expenses and debt service, excluding prepayments and balloon payments. Available Cash Distributions are included in Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in the consolidated financial statements.

Jointly Owned Investments and Other Transactions with our Affiliates

At June 30, 2017, we owned interests ranging from 50% to 97% in jointly owned investments, with the remaining interests held by affiliates or by third parties. We consolidate all of these joint ventures with exception to our sole equity investment (Note 4), which we account for under the equity method of accounting. Additionally, no other parties hold any rights that overcome our control. We account for the minority share of these investments as noncontrolling interests.

The carrying value of our Real estate increased by $36.6 million from December 31, 2016 to June 30, 2017, due to the weakening of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies (primarily the euro) during the period.

Depreciation expense, including the effect of foreign currency translation, on our real estate was $6.7 million and $6.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $13.0 million and $12.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Accumulated depreciation of real estate is included in Accumulated depreciation and amortization in the consolidated financial statements.

Acquisition of Real Estate During 2017

On March 14, 2017, we acquired a 90% controlling interest in a warehouse facility in Iowa City, Iowa, which was deemed to be an asset acquisition, at a total cost of $8.2 million, including net lease intangibles of $1.6 million (Note 6) and acquisition-related costs of $0.4 million that were capitalized. The seller retained a 10% interest in the property, which is the equivalent of $0.8 million of the purchase price.

Capitalized Funds

On May 17, 2017, we made our final payment to the developer for the build-to-suit project located in Eindhoven, the Netherlands for $18.7 million, which was based on the exchange rate of the euro on the date of the acquisition. The payment was included in the expected total investment amount when the first draw of the build-to-suit was funded in March 2015. Additionally, we also recorded $9.4 million of deferred tax liabilities in connection with our investment in this project. Simultaneous with the payment to the developer, the project was completed and placed into service.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, construction commenced on one of our previous build-to-suit investments (Note 5). The net investment of $10.7 million was reclassified to Real estate under construction from Net investments in direct financing leases during the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Ghana — On February 19, 2016, we invested in a build-to-suit joint venture with a third party for a university complex development site located in Accra, Ghana. As of June 30, 2017, total capitalized funds related to this investment were $32.5 million, inclusive of accrued construction costs of $3.1 million and the effect of recording deferred tax liabilities of $3.7 million.

At the time of the investment, the joint venture obtained third-party financing in an amount up to $41.0 million from the Overseas Private Investment Corporation (“OPIC”), a financial institution of the U.S. Government, with an estimated interest rate based on the U.S. Treasury rate plus 300 basis points. Funding of this loan is subject to the tenant obtaining a letter of credit, which to date has not occurred. Because the tenant has not obtained the required letter of credit, it is in default under its concession agreement with us, and we are currently unable to estimate when this project will be completed, if at all. As a result, as of June 30, 2017, we had no amount outstanding under this financing arrangement. If the project is completed, our total investment is expected to be approximately $65.7 million.

We have evaluated this investment for impairment and probability-weighted different possible scenarios in estimating future undiscounted cash flows, including payment from the tenant or through the insurance policy that we have with regard to the completion of this project. Because we believe there is a high probability that we will recover the full amount we have invested, we have not recorded any impairment charge in connection with this investment as of June 30, 2017, although recovery may take a period of time from the date a claim is filed. We will continue to monitor the investment for impairment.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, total capitalized funds primarily related to our build-to-suit projects, which were comprised primarily of initial funding of $20.0 million and construction draws of $37.7 million. Capitalized funds include accrued costs of $4.3 million, which is a non-cash investing activity.

Capitalized Interest

Capitalized interest includes amortization of the mortgage discount and deferred financing costs and interest incurred during construction, which totaled $3.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and is a non-cash investing activity.

Placed into Service

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we placed into service a partially completed student-housing development and two build-to-suit projects totaling $130.0 million, which is a non-cash investing activity.

Ending Balance

At June 30, 2017, we had five open build-to-suit projects with aggregate unfunded commitments of approximately $119.2 million.

Equity Investment in Real Estate


We have an interest in an unconsolidated investment in our Self Storage segment that relates to a joint venture for the development of 
four self-storage facilities in Canada. This investment is jointly owned with a third party, which is also the general partner. Our ownership interest in the joint venture is 90%; the joint-venture partner is funding its equity interest with the distributions they are eligible to receive upon the properties being placed into service. As of June 30, 2017, the joint-venture partner had not funded their 10% equity interest. We do not consolidate this entity because we are not the primary beneficiary and the nature of our involvement in the activities of the entity allows us to exercise significant influence but does not give us power over decisions that significantly affect the economic performance of the entity.

On January 26, 2017, the joint venture purchased a vacant parcel of land in Toronto, Ontario for $5.1 million, which is based on the exchange rate of the Canadian dollar at the date of acquisition. This parcel of land will be the site of our fourth self-storage development in Canada as a part of this joint venture.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we commenced operations in two Canadian self-storage facilities upon the completion of distinct phases of the overall development, and as a result, placed $9.3 million and $10.1 million of the total amounts for these projects into service. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, we incurred losses of $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, relating to these distinct phases of the projects, which are included in Equity in losses of equity method investment in real estate on our consolidated financial statements.

At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, our total equity investment balance for these properties was $20.8 million and $14.7 million, respectively, and the joint venture had total third-party recourse debt of $17.9 million and $13.8 million, respectively. At June 30, 2017, the unfunded commitments for these build-to-suit projects totaled approximately $28.3 million.

Note 5. Finance Receivables

Assets representing rights to receive money on demand or at fixed or determinable dates are referred to as finance receivables. Our finance receivables portfolio consists of our Notes receivable and our Net investments in direct financing leases. Operating leases are not included in finance receivables as such amounts are not recognized as an asset in the consolidated financial statements.

Notes Receivable

Our Notes receivable at both June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 consist of a $28.0 million mezzanine tranche of 10-year commercial mortgage-backed securities on the Cipriani banquet halls in New York, New York and a $38.5 million mezzanine loan collateralized by 27 retail stores in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Iowa leased to Mills Fleet Farm Group LLC. We have and will continue to receive interest-only payments on each of these loans through maturity in July 2024 and October 2018, respectively. As a result, the balance for the receivables at June 30, 2017 remained $28.0 million and $38.5 million, respectively.

Net Investments in Direct Financing Leases

Interest income from direct financing leases was $0.9 million and $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $1.9 million and $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

In 2015, we invested in a joint venture with a third party to purchase an office building located in Cardiff, United Kingdom to be redeveloped into student-housing. The existing tenant vacated the building on January 31, 2017. Upon lease termination, construction commenced, and the net investment of $10.7 million was reclassified to Real estate under construction during the six months ended June 30, 2017 (Note 4).

Credit Quality of Finance Receivables

We generally seek investments in facilities that we believe are critical to a tenant’s business and have a low risk of tenant default. At both June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had no significant finance receivable balances that were past due and we had not established any allowances for credit losses. Additionally, there were no modifications of finance receivables during the six months ended June 30, 2017. We evaluate the credit quality of our finance receivables utilizing an internal five-point credit rating scale, with one representing the highest credit quality and five representing the lowest. The credit quality evaluation of our finance receivables was last updated in the second quarter of 2017.

A summary of our finance receivables by internal credit quality rating is as follows (dollars in thousands):

Net amortization of intangibles, including the effect of foreign currency translation, was $7.5 million and $10.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $15.6 million and $21.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Amortization of below-market and above-market rent intangibles is recorded as an adjustment to Rental income; amortization of below-market and above-market ground lease intangibles is included in Property expenses; and amortization of in-place lease intangibles is included in Depreciation and amortization expense in the consolidated financial statements.

Note 7. Fair Value Measurements
 
The fair value of an asset is defined as the exit price, which is the amount that would either be received when an asset is sold or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers are: Level 1, for which quoted market prices for identical instruments are available in active markets, such as money market funds, equity securities, and U.S. Treasury securities; Level 2, for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the instrument, such as certain derivative instruments including interest rate caps, interest rate swaps, foreign currency forward contracts and foreign currency collars; and Level 3, for securities that do not fall into Level 1 or Level 2 and for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring us to develop our own assumptions.



CPA®:18 – Global 6/30/2017 10-Q 18


Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The methods and assumptions described below were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument. For significant Level 3 items, we have also provided the unobservable inputs along with their weighted-average ranges.

Derivative Assets — Our derivative assets, which are included in Other assets, net in the consolidated financial statements, are comprised of foreign currency forward contracts, interest rate swaps, interest rate caps, and foreign currency collars (Note 8). These derivative instruments were measured at fair value using readily observable market inputs, such as quotations on interest rates, and were classified as Level 2 as these instruments are custom, over-the-counter contracts with various bank counterparties that are not traded in an active market.

Derivative Liabilities — Our derivative liabilities, which are included in Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities in the consolidated financial statements, are comprised of interest rate swaps and foreign currency collars (Note 8). These derivative instruments were measured at fair value using readily observable market inputs, such as quotations on interest rates, and were classified as Level 2 because they are custom, over-the-counter contracts with various bank counterparties that are not traded in an active market.

Rent Guarantees — Our rent guarantees, which are included in Other assets, net in the consolidated financial statements, are related to three of our international investments. These rent guarantees were measured at fair value using a discounted cash flow model, and were classified as Level 3 because the model uses unobservable inputs. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, our rent guarantees had a fair value of $0.6 million and $0.5 million, respectively. We determined the fair value of the rent guarantees based on an estimate of discounted cash flows using a discount rate that ranged from 7% to 9% and a growth rate that ranged from 1% to 2%, which are considered significant unobservable inputs. Significant increases or decreases to these inputs in isolation would result in a significant change in the fair value measurement. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, we recognized $0.4 million and $0.5 million, respectively, of mark-to-market gains related to these rent guarantees within Other income and (expenses) on our consolidated financial statements. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, we recognized $1.0 million and $0.8 million, respectively, of mark-to-market gains related to these rent guarantees within Other income and (expenses) on our consolidated financial statements.
 
We did not have any transfers into or out of Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 measurements during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. Gains and losses (realized and unrealized) included in earnings are reported within Other income and (expenses) on our consolidated financial statements.
 
Our other financial instruments had the following carrying values and fair values as of the dates shown (dollars in thousands):

(a)
Debt, net consists of Non-recourse debt, net and Bonds payable, net. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the carrying value of Non-recourse debt, net includes unamortized deferred financing costs of $7.9 million and $7.6 million, respectively. At both June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the carrying value of Bonds payable, net includes unamortized deferred financing costs of $0.9 million (Note 9).
(b)
We determined the estimated fair value of our Non-recourse debt and Bonds payable using a discounted cash flow model that estimates the present value of the future loan payments by discounting such payments at current estimated market interest rates. The estimated market interest rates take into account interest rate risk and the value of the underlying collateral, which includes quality of the collateral, the credit quality of the tenant/obligor, and the time until maturity.
(c)
We determined the estimated fair value of our Notes receivable using a discounted cash flow model with rates that take into account the credit of the tenant/obligor, order of payment tranches, and interest rate risk. We also considered the value of the underlying collateral, taking into account the quality of the collateral, the credit quality of the tenant/obligor, the time until maturity, and the current market interest rate.

We estimated that our other financial assets and liabilities (excluding net investments in direct financing leases) had fair values that approximated their carrying values at both June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Note 8. Risk Management and Use of Derivative Financial Instruments
 
Risk Management
 
In the normal course of our ongoing business operations, we encounter economic risk. There are four main components of economic risk that impact us: interest rate risk, credit risk, market risk, and foreign currency risk. We are primarily subject to interest rate risk on our interest-bearing liabilities. Credit risk is the risk of default on our operations and our tenants’ inability or unwillingness to make contractually required payments. Market risk includes changes in the value of our properties and related loans, as well as changes in the value of our other investments due to changes in interest rates or other market factors. We own international investments, primarily in Europe, and are subject to risks associated with fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates.
 
Derivative Financial Instruments
 
When we use derivative instruments, it is generally to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rate movements. We have not entered into, and do not plan to enter into financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. In addition to entering into derivative instruments on our own behalf, we may also be a party to derivative instruments that are embedded in other contracts. The primary risks related to our use of derivative instruments include a counterparty to a hedging arrangement defaulting on its obligation and a downgrade in the credit quality of a counterparty to such an extent that our ability to sell or assign our side of the hedging transaction is impaired. While we seek to mitigate these risks by entering into hedging arrangements with large financial institutions that we deem to be creditworthy, it is possible that our hedging transactions, which are intended to limit losses, could adversely affect our earnings. Furthermore, if we terminate a hedging arrangement, we may be obligated to pay certain costs, such as transaction or breakage fees. We have established policies and procedures for risk assessment and the approval, reporting, and monitoring of derivative financial instrument activities.
 
We measure derivative instruments at fair value and record them as assets or liabilities, depending on our rights or obligations under the applicable derivative contract. Derivatives that are not designated as hedges must be adjusted to fair value through earnings. For a derivative designated, and that qualified, as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the change in fair value of the derivative is recognized in Other comprehensive income (loss) until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. For a derivative designated, and that qualified, as a net investment hedge, the effective portion of the change in its fair value and/or the net settlement of the derivative is reported in Other comprehensive income (loss) as part of the cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of any derivative is immediately recognized in earnings.

All derivative transactions with an individual counterparty are governed by a master International Swap and Derivatives Association agreement, which can be considered as a master netting arrangement; however, we report all our derivative instruments on a gross basis on our consolidated financial statements. At both June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, no cash collateral had been posted or received for any of our derivative positions.

Amounts reported in Other comprehensive income (loss) related to our interest rate swaps will be reclassified to Interest expense as interest payments are made on our variable-rate debt. Amounts reported in Other comprehensive income (loss) related to foreign currency derivative contracts will be reclassified to Other income and (expenses) when the hedged foreign currency contracts are settled. At June 30, 2017, we estimated that an additional $0.5 million and $1.0 million will be reclassified as Interest expense and Other expenses, respectively, during the next 12 months.

Interest Rate Swaps and Caps

We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes primarily through our borrowing activities. To limit this exposure, we attempt to obtain mortgage financing on a long-term, fixed-rate basis. However, from time to time, we or our investment partners may obtain non-recourse variable-rate mortgage loans and, as a result, may continue to enter into interest rate swap agreements or interest rate cap agreements with counterparties. Interest rate swaps, which effectively convert the variable-rate debt service obligations of a loan to a fixed rate, are agreements in which one party exchanges a stream of interest payments for a counterparty’s stream of cash flow over a specific period. The notional, or face, amount on which the swaps are based is not exchanged. Interest rate caps limit the effective borrowing rate of variable-rate debt obligations while allowing participants to share in downward shifts in interest rates. Our objective in using these derivatives is to limit our exposure to interest rate movements.
 
The interest rate swaps and caps that our consolidated subsidiaries had outstanding at June 30, 2017 are summarized as follows (currency in thousands):

Foreign Currency Contracts
 
We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate movements, primarily in the euro and, to a lesser extent, the Norwegian krone. We manage foreign currency exchange rate movements by generally placing our debt service obligation on an investment in the same currency as the tenant’s rental obligation to us. This reduces our overall exposure to the net cash flow from that investment. However, we are subject to foreign currency exchange rate movements to the extent that there is a difference in the timing and amount of the rental obligation and the debt service. Realized and unrealized gains and losses recognized in earnings related to foreign currency transactions are included in Other income and (expenses) in the consolidated financial statements.

In order to hedge certain of our foreign currency cash flow exposures, we enter into foreign currency forward contracts and collars. A foreign currency forward contract is a commitment to deliver a certain amount of currency at a certain price on a specific date in the future. By entering into forward contracts and holding them to maturity, we are locked into a future currency exchange rate for the term of the contract. A foreign currency collar guarantees that the exchange rate of the currency will not fluctuate beyond the range of the options’ strike prices. Our foreign currency forward contracts and foreign currency collars have maturities of 74 months or less.

Credit Risk-Related Contingent Features

We measure our credit exposure on a counterparty basis as the net positive aggregate estimated fair value of our derivatives, net of any collateral received. No collateral was received as of June 30, 2017. At June 30, 2017, our total credit exposure was $3.2 million and the maximum exposure to any single counterparty was $2.4 million.

Some of the agreements we have with our derivative counterparties contain cross-default provisions that could trigger a declaration of default on our derivative obligations if we default, or are capable of being declared in default, on certain of our indebtedness. At June 30, 2017, we had not been declared in default on any of our derivative obligations. The estimated fair value of our derivatives in a net liability position was $2.7 million and $1.2 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, which included accrued interest and any nonperformance risk adjustments. If we had breached any of these provisions at June 30, 2017 or December 31, 2016, we could have been required to settle our obligations under these agreements at their aggregate termination value of $3.0 million and $1.3 million, respectively.

Note 9. Non-Recourse Mortgages and Bonds Payable

At June 30, 2017, our debt bore interest at fixed annual rates ranging from 1.6% to 5.8% and variable contractual annual rates ranging from 1.6% to 5.1%, with maturity dates from 2018 to 2039.

Financing Activity During 2017

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we obtained four non-recourse mortgage financings totaling $23.2 million, with a weighted-average annual interest rate of 5.2% and term to maturity of 5.7 years. In addition, we refinanced two non-recourse mortgage loans for a total of $17.0 million with a weighted-average interest rate of 2.6% and term to maturity of 4.5 years. We had an additional draw down of $3.9 million (based on the exchange rate of the euro at the date of the draw down) on our senior construction-to-term mortgage loan related to the development of an office building located in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. The loan bears an interest rate of Euro Interbank Offered Rate, or EURIBOR, plus 2.5% for each draw down unless EURIBOR is below zero, in which case the margin of 2.5% plus the liquidity spread of 0.7% for a total interest rate of 3.2% will be applied. Subsequent to completion of the development project, this loan will be converted to a seven-year term loan, at which time it will bear a fixed interest rate of 1.8%.

The carrying value of our Non-recourse mortgages, net and Bonds payable, net increased by $25.2 million in the aggregate from December 31, 2016 to June 30, 2017, reflecting the impact of the weakening of the U.S. dollar relative to certain foreign currencies (primarily the euro) during the same period.

Note 10. Commitments and Contingencies

At June 30, 2017, we were not involved in any material litigation. Various claims and lawsuits arising in the normal course of business are pending against us. The results of these proceedings are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations. See Note 4 for unfunded construction commitments.

The allocation of Net income (loss) attributable to CPA®:18 – Global is calculated based on the basic and diluted weighted-average shares outstanding for Class A and Class C common stock for each respective period. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the allocation for Class A common stock excluded $0.1 million and $0.2 million of interest expense related to the accretion of interest on our annual distribution and shareholder servicing fee liability, which is only applicable to Class C common stock (Note 3). For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the allocation for Class A common stock excluded $0.1 million and $0.2 million of interest expense related to the accretion of interest on our annual distribution and shareholder servicing fee liability, which is only applicable to Class C common stock (Note 3).

Distributions

Distributions are declared at the discretion of our board of directors and are not guaranteed. During the three months ended June 30, 2017, our board of directors declared quarterly distributions of $0.1563 per share for our Class A common stock and $0.1382 per share for our Class C common stock, which was paid on July 14, 2017 to stockholders of record on June 30, 2017, in the amount of $21.4 million.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, our board of directors declared distributions in the aggregate amount of $34.1 million per share for our Class A common stock and $8.5 million per share for our Class C common stock, which equates to $0.3126 and $0.2762 per share, respectively.

__________
(a)
Amounts for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 are presented to conform to the three reportable business segment presentation for the current period.
(b)
We recognized straight-line rent adjustments of $1.1 million and $1.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $2.1 million and $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, which increased Lease revenues within our consolidated financial statements for each period.
(c)
In April 2016, the Croatian government passed a special law assisting the restructuring of companies considered of systematic significance in Croatia. This law directly impacts our tenant, which is currently experiencing financial distress and recently received a credit downgrade from both Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s. As a result of the financial difficulties and the uncertainty regarding future rent collections from the tenant, we recorded bad debt expense of $1.0 million and $2.0 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively.
(d)
As a result of financial difficulties and uncertainty regarding future rent collections from a tenant in Stavanger, Norway, we recorded bad debt expense of $0.6 million and $1.1 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively.
(e)
Includes acquisition expenses incurred in connection with self-storage transactions. Since adopting ASU 2017-01 as of January 1, 2017 (Note 2), no acquisitions have been deemed business combinations.
(f)
Includes Equity in losses of equity method investment in real estate.
(g)
Included in unallocated corporate overhead are asset management fees and general and administrative expenses. These expenses are calculated and reported at the portfolio level and not evaluated as part of any segment’s operating performance.
(h)
On January 31, 2017, construction commenced on one of our previously acquired build-to-suit investments located in Cardiff, United Kingdom. Upon commencement of construction, the net investment was reclassified to Real estate under construction from Net investments in direct financing leases (Note 4). As the build-to-suit is intended to be a student-housing development, we reclassified the net investment to Multi Family from Net Lease during 2017.

Note 13. Subsequent Event

On August 4, 2017, we repaid $15.2 million of loans outstanding to WPC (Note 3).

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
 
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is intended to provide the reader with information that will assist in understanding our financial statements and the reasons for changes in certain key components of our financial statements from period to period. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations also provides the reader with our perspective on our financial position and liquidity, as well as certain other factors that may affect our future results. Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the 2016 Annual Report and subsequent reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Business Overview

As described in more detail in Item 1 of the 2016 Annual Report, we are a publicly owned, non-traded REIT that invests primarily in commercial properties leased to companies domestically and internationally. As opportunities arise, we also make other types of real estate-related investments, which includes our self-storage and multi-family investments. As a REIT, we are not subject to U.S. federal income taxation as long as we satisfy certain requirements, principally relating to the nature of our income, the level of our distributions, and other factors. We earn revenue principally by leasing the properties we own to single corporate tenants, primarily on a triple-net lease basis, which requires the tenant to pay substantially all of the costs associated with operating and maintaining the property. Revenue is subject to fluctuation because of the timing of new lease transactions, lease terminations, lease expirations, contractual rent adjustments, tenant defaults, sales of properties, and foreign currency exchange rates. We commenced operations in May 2013 and are managed by our Advisor. We hold substantially all of our assets and conduct substantially all of our business through our Operating Partnership. We are the general partner of, and own 99.97% of the interests in, the Operating Partnership. The remaining interest in the Operating Partnership is held by a subsidiary of WPC.

Significant Developments

Non-Traded Retail Fundraising Platform Closure

On June 15, 2017, WPC’s board of directors approved a plan to exit all non-traded retail fundraising activities carried out by its wholly-owned broker-dealer subsidiary, Carey Financial, effective June 30, 2017. We will pay the annual distribution and shareholder servicing fees directly to the selected dealers rather than through Carey Financial beginning with the fees for the third quarter of 2017. There is no change in the amount of distribution and shareholder servicing fees that we incur.

Net Asset Value

Our Advisor calculated our quarterly NAVs as of March 31, 2017 in accordance with our valuation policies and on June 16, 2017, we announced that our Advisor had determined that the quarterly NAV for both our Class A and Class C common stock was $7.90, unchanged from December 31, 2016. Our Advisor calculated our NAVs by relying in part on a prior appraisal of the fair market value of our real estate portfolio as of December 31, 2015, an updated appraisal of the fair market value of approximately an additional 25% of our real estate portfolio as of September 30, 2016, an updated appraisal of the fair market value of approximately 25% of our real estate portfolio as of December 31, 2016, an updated appraisal of the fair market value of approximately 25% of our real estate portfolio as of March 31, 2017 and updated estimates of the fair market value of debt as of March 31, 2017, all provided by an independent third party, as described below. Our Advisor then updated the prior appraisal and the updated appraisals of our real estate portfolio and adjusted the resulting net equity of our real estate portfolio for certain items. Our NAVs are based on a number of variables, including individual tenant credits, lease terms, lending credit spreads, foreign currency exchange rates, share counts, tenant defaults, and development projects that are not yet generating income, among others. We do not control all of these variables and, as such, cannot predict how they will change in the future. The majority of our costs associated with development projects, which are not yet generating income, is included in Real estate under construction in our consolidated financial statements and was approximately $140.5 million as of June 30, 2017. For additional information on our calculation of our quarterly NAVs at March 31, 2017, please see our Current Report on Form 8-K dated June 16, 2017. Our Advisor currently intends to determine our NAVs as of June 30, 2017 during the third quarter of 2017.



CPA®:18 – Global 6/30/2017 10-Q 30




Beginning with our quarterly NAVs as of September 30, 2016, we obtain a rolling appraisal of the fair market value of our real estate portfolio, whereby approximately 25% of our real estate assets (based on asset value) is appraised each quarter and we continue to obtain estimates of the fair market value of our debt as of the respective balance sheet date, both to be provided by an independent third party. Since the quarterly NAV estimates are not based on a full appraisal of the entire portfolio, to the extent any estimated NAV per share adjustments are within +/- 1% of the previously disclosed NAV per share, the quarterly NAV per share will remain unchanged. We monitor properties not appraised during the quarter to identify ones that may have experienced a significant event and obtain updated third-party appraisals for such properties.

The accrued distribution and shareholder servicing fee payable has been valued using a hypothetical liquidation value and, as a result, the NAVs do not reflect any obligation to pay future distribution and shareholder servicing fees. At June 30, 2017, the accrual for the distribution and shareholder servicing fee was $6.6 million.

Acquisition and Financing Activity

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we acquired one new investment for an aggregate amount of $8.2 million and purchased a vacant parcel of land for a self-storage development project as part of our joint venture with a third party for $5.1 million, which is based on the exchange rate of the Canadian dollar at the date of acquisition. Additionally, we made our final payment to the developer for a build-to-suit project located in Eindhoven, the Netherlands for $18.7 million, which is based on the exchange rate of the euro on the date of the acquisition.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we obtained mortgage financing totaling $23.2 million and refinanced non-recourse mortgage loans totaling $17.0 million. In addition, we had an additional draw down of $3.9 million (based on the exchange rate of the euro at the date of the draw down) on our senior construction-to-term mortgage loan. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we borrowed $11.2 million from WPC and repaid $4.5 million (Note 3).

Amounts related to certain of our build-to-suit projects are denominated in a foreign currency. For these projects, amounts are based on their respective spot rates as of June 30, 2017, where applicable.
(c)
Amounts presented include certain costs that have been fully funded as of June 30, 2017 and are included in Other assets, net but not yet used in construction and therefore not included in Real estate under construction. These amounts also exclude capitalized interest, accrued costs, and capitalized acquisition fees for our Advisor, which are all included in Real estate under construction.
(d)
This project relates to a build-to-suit expansion of an existing hotel, which we have fully funded but was still under development as of June 30, 2017.
(e)
On February 19, 2016, the joint venture obtained third-party financing in an amount up to $41.0 million, subject to the tenant obtaining a letter of credit. Since the tenant has not to date obtained the required letter of credit, we are currently unable to estimate when this project will be completed, if at all (Note 4).
(f)
Amount represents the funds contributed from our joint-venture partners.

As of June 30, 2017, we had the following unconsolidated development properties and joint-venture development projects, which remain under construction (dollars in thousands):

__________
(a)
These properties all relate to an unconsolidated investment, which we account for under the equity method of accounting. We do not consolidate this entity because we are not the primary beneficiary and the nature of our involvement in the activities of the entity allows us to exercise significant influence but does not give us power over decisions that significantly affect the economic performance of the entity.
(b)
Represents our expected ownership percentage upon the completion of each respective development project. As of June 30, 2017, the joint-venture partner had not yet purchased its 10% equity interest, which will be funded by the distributions they are eligible to receive upon the properties being placed into service (Note 4).
(c)
Amounts related to our Canadian build-to-suit projects are denominated in Canadian dollars, which have been partially funded with third-party financing. For these projects, U.S. dollar amounts are based on their respective exchange rate as of June 30, 2017.


CPA®:18 – Global 6/30/2017 10-Q 38




(d)
During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we commenced operations in two Canadian self-storage facilities upon the completion of distinct phases of the overall development, and as a result, placed $9.3 million and $10.1 million of the total amounts for these projects into service. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, we incurred losses of $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, relating to these distinct phases of the projects, which are included in Equity in losses of equity method investment in real estate on our consolidated financial statements.

Terms and Definitions

Pro Rata Metrics — The portfolio information above contains certain metrics prepared under the pro rata consolidation method. We refer to these metrics as pro rata metrics. We have a number of investments, usually with our affiliates, in which our economic ownership is less than 100%. Under the full consolidation method, we report 100% of the assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses of those investments that are deemed to be under our control or for which we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary, even if our ownership is less than 100%. Also, for all other jointly owned investments, which we do not control, we report our net investment and our net income or loss from that investment. Under the pro rata consolidation method, we generally present our proportionate share, based on our economic ownership of these jointly owned investments, of the portfolio metrics of those investments. Multiplying each of the jointly owned investments’ financial statement line items by our percentage ownership and adding those amounts to or subtracting those amounts from our totals, as applicable, may not accurately depict the legal and economic implications of holding an ownership interest of less than 100% in such jointly owned investments.

ABR ABR represents contractual minimum annualized base rent for our net-leased properties, and reflects exchange rates as of the date of this Report. If there is a rent abatement, we annualize the first monthly contractual base rent following the free rent period. ABR is not applicable to operating properties.

Total revenues improved for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to the same periods in 2016, primarily as a result of the accretive impact of our investments acquired during 2016 and 2017.



CPA®:18 – Global 6/30/2017 10-Q 39


Net income attributable to CPA®:18 – Global and FFO improved for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to the same periods in 2016, primarily as a result of the accretive impact of our investments acquired during 2016 and 2017. Additional improvements resulted from an increase in realized and unrealized foreign currency transaction gains related to our international investments, as well as a decrease in acquisition expenses.

MFFO and Adjusted MFFO decreased for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to the same periods in 2016, primarily due to provisions for bad debt expense related to two tenants and an increase in interest expense. Additionally, MFFO decreased as a result of an increase in deferred taxes relating to our investment in Mauritius.

Results of Operations

We evaluate our results of operations with a primary focus on our ability to generate cash flow necessary to meet our objectives of funding distributions to stockholders and increasing the value of our real estate investments. As a result, our assessment of operating results gives less emphasis to the effect of unrealized gains and losses, which may cause fluctuations in net income for comparable periods but have no impact on cash flows, and to other non-cash charges, such as depreciation and impairment charges.

Lease Composition and Leasing Activities

As of June 30, 2017, approximately 59.1% of our leases, based on consolidated ABR, provide for adjustments based on formulas indexed to changes in the U.S. CPI, or similar indices for the jurisdiction in which the property is located, some of which have caps and/or floors. In addition, 36.7% of our leases on that same basis have fixed rent adjustments, for which consolidated ABR is scheduled to increase by an average of 3.1% in the next 12 months. We own international investments and, therefore, lease revenues from these investments are subject to exchange rate fluctuations in various foreign currencies, primarily the euro.

The following discussion presents a summary of rents on existing properties arising from leases with new tenants, or second generation leases, and renewed leases with existing tenants for the periods presented and, therefore, does not include new acquisitions for our portfolio during the periods presented.

During the three months ended June 30, 2017, we did not enter into any new leases or modify any existing leases.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we signed one lease extension with an existing tenant totaling 5,400 square feet of leased space. The new rent for the lease extension remained at $19.66 per square foot.

CPA®:18 – Global 6/30/2017 10-Q 43




Property level contribution is a non-GAAP measure that we believe to be a useful supplemental measure for management and investors in evaluating and analyzing the financial results of our net-leased and operating properties over time. Property level contribution presents the lease and operating property revenues, less property expenses and depreciation and amortization. We believe that Property level contribution allows for meaningful comparison between periods of the direct costs of owning and operating our net-leased assets and operating properties. When a property is leased on a net lease basis, reimbursable tenant costs are recorded as both income and property expense and, therefore, have no impact on the Property level contribution. While we believe that Property level contribution is a useful supplemental measure, it should not be considered as an alternative to Net income (loss) attributable to CPA®:18 – Global as an indication of our operating performance.

Existing Net-Leased Properties

Existing net-leased properties are those we acquired prior to January 1, 2016. For the periods presented, there were 54 existing net-leased properties.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same periods in 2016, property level contribution for existing net-leased properties decreased by $2.0 million and $2.6 million, respectively, primarily due to increased property expenses resulting from bad debt expense of $1.6 million and $3.0 million, respectively, associated with two of our jointly-owned investments during 2017.

Recently Acquired Net-Leased Properties

Recently acquired net-leased properties are those that we acquired or placed into service subsequent to December 31, 2015. For the periods presented, there were three recently acquired net-leased properties.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to the same periods in 2016, property level contribution from recently acquired net-leased properties increased by $0.5 million, primarily due to an increase in revenues relating to leases associated with an acquisition in the first quarter of 2017 and two build-to-suits placed into service during the second quarter of 2017.

Existing Operating Properties

Existing operating properties are those we acquired prior to January 1, 2016. For the periods presented, there were 62 existing operating properties.

For the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016, property level contribution from existing operating properties increased by $3.9 million, primarily due to an increase in revenues of $1.5 million and a decrease in depreciation and amortization expense of $2.7 million. The increase in revenues was primarily due to an increase of the average occupancy rate for our self-storage properties from June 30, 2016 to June 30, 2017, which rose from 91.6% to 92.8%, respectively. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily due to in-place lease intangible assets becoming fully amortized subsequent to June 30, 2016.

For the six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016, property level contribution from existing operating properties increased by $7.0 million, primarily due to an increase in revenues of $2.9 million and a decrease in depreciation and amortization expense of $4.8 million. The increase in revenues was primarily due to an increase of the average occupancy rate for our self-storage properties from June 30, 2016 to June 30, 2017, which rose from 91.6% to 92.8%, respectively. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily due to in-place lease intangible assets becoming fully amortized subsequent to June 30, 2016.

Recently Acquired Operating Properties

Recently acquired operating properties are those that we acquired or placed into service subsequent to December 31, 2015. For the periods presented, there were ten recently acquired operating properties.

For the three months ended June 30, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016, property level contribution from recently acquired operating properties remained substantially flat due to increased lease revenues of $1.0 million being offset by increased depreciation and amortization expense and property expenses of $0.5 million and $0.4 million, respectively. These increases were due to the operating properties we acquired and placed into service, primarily a completed student-housing development, during 2016 and 2017.


CPA®:18 – Global 6/30/2017 10-Q 44





For the six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016, property level contribution from recently acquired operating properties remained substantially flat due to increased lease revenues of $3.3 million being offset by increased depreciation and amortization expense and property expenses of $2.0 million and $1.1 million, respectively. These increases were due to the operating properties we acquired and placed into service, primarily a completed student-housing development, during 2016 and 2017.

Other Revenues and Expenses

Interest Income and Other

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to the same periods in 2016, interest income and other increased by $1.3 million and $2.1 million, respectively, primarily due to interest earned on our mezzanine loan investment that was acquired in November 2016.

Property Expenses — Asset Management Fees

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to the same periods in 2016, asset management fees increased by $0.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively, due to investment volume during 2017 and 2016, which increased the asset base from which our Advisor earns a fee.

General and Administrative

For the three months ended June 30, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016, general and administrative expenses increased by $0.2 million, primarily due to an increase in personnel and overhead expenses reimbursed to our Advisor of $0.1 million. The increase was due to our higher trailing four quarters of reported revenues compared to those of the Managed Programs during the three months ended June 30, 2017.

For the six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to the same period 2016, general and administrative expenses remained relatively flat.

Acquisition Expenses

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to the same periods in 2016, acquisition expenses decreased by $2.8 million and $4.7 million, respectively, primarily due to a decrease in investment volume for acquisitions that were deemed to be business combinations, for which fees are required to be expensed under current accounting guidance, due to our early adoption, on January 1, 2017, of ASU 2017-01, which clarified when transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions of assets or businesses (Note 2).

Interest Expense

Our interest expense is directly impacted by the mortgage loans or other financing obtained or assumed in connection with our investing activity (Note 9). For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to the same periods in 2016, interest expense increased by $1.5 million and $2.6 million, respectively, primarily due to an increase in mortgage and bond financing obtained or assumed in connection with our investing activity during the respective periods. Our average outstanding debt balance was $1.2 billion and $1.1 billion during both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Our weighted-average interest rate was 4.1% during both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.



CPA®:18 – Global 6/30/2017 10-Q 45




Other Income and (Expenses)

Other income and (expenses) primarily consists of gains and losses on foreign currency transactions, and derivative instruments. We make intercompany loans to a number of our foreign subsidiaries, most of which do not have the U.S. dollar as their functional currency. Remeasurement of foreign currency intercompany transactions that are scheduled for settlement, consisting primarily of accrued interest and short-term loans, are included in the determination of net income. We also recognize gains or losses on foreign currency transactions when we repatriate cash from our foreign investments or hold foreign currencies in entities with a U.S. dollar currency designation. In addition, we have certain derivative instruments, including foreign currency contracts, that are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes, for which realized and unrealized gains and losses are included in earnings. The timing and amount of such gains or losses cannot always be estimated and are subject to fluctuation.

For the three months ended June 30, 2017, we recognized net other income of $9.5 million, which was primarily comprised of $8.5 million of realized and unrealized foreign currency transaction gains related to our international investments, primarily related to our short-term intercompany loans, $0.4 million of realized gains recognized on foreign currency forward contracts and collars, and $0.4 million of gains recognized on the change in fair value of rent guarantees.

For the six months ended June 30, 2017, we recognized net other income of $12.1 million, which was primarily comprised of $10.5 million of realized and unrealized foreign currency transaction gains related to our international investments, $0.8 million of realized gains recognized on foreign currency forward contracts and collars, and $0.5 million of gains recognized on the change in the fair value of rent guarantees.

For the three months ended June 30, 2016, we recognized net other expenses of $3.0 million, which was primarily comprised of $4.3 million of realized and unrealized foreign currency transaction losses related to our international investments, partially offset by $0.9 million of gains recognized on a change in fair value of rent guarantees and $0.3 million of gains recognized on foreign currency forward contracts and collars.

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, we recognized net other income of $1.0 million, which was primarily comprised of the $0.9 million of gains recognized on the change in fair value of rent guarantees, $0.7 million of gains recognized on derivatives, and $0.2 million of interest income received on our cash balances held with financial institutions, partially offset by $0.8 million of realized and unrealized foreign currency transaction losses related to our international investments.

Equity in Losses of Equity Method Investment in Real Estate

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, we recognized equity in losses of equity method investment in real estate of $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively, which were primarily due to the commencement of operations in one Canadian self-storage facility upon the completion of a distinct phase of the overall development in July 2016.

(Provision for) Benefit from Income Taxes

Our provision for income taxes is primarily related to our international properties.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same periods in 2016, provision for income taxes increased by $1.3 million and $1.0 million, respectively, primarily due to an increased overall tax rate for our property located in Mauritius. Additionally, a higher tax provision resulted from revenue generated from a building expansion that was placed into service in Slovakia subsequent to June 30, 2016.

Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests

For the three months ended June 30, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016, net income attributable to noncontrolling interests decreased by $0.4 million, primarily due to the bad debt expense associated with two jointly owned investments.

For the six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016, net income attributable to noncontrolling interest decreased by $0.2 million, primarily due to the bad debt expense associated with two jointly owned investments, offset by an increase in the available cash generated by the Operating Partnership, which we refer to as the Available Cash Distribution (Note 3).



CPA®:18 – Global 6/30/2017 10-Q 46




Liquidity and Capital Resources

We use the cash flow generated from our investments primarily to meet our operating expenses, service debt, and fund distributions to stockholders. We currently expect that, for the short-term, the aforementioned cash requirements will be funded by our cash on hand and financings. We may also use proceeds from financings and asset sales for the acquisition of real estate and real estate-related investments.

Our liquidity would be adversely affected by unanticipated costs and greater-than-anticipated operating expenses. To the extent that our working capital reserve is insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements, additional funds may be provided from cash generated from operations or through short-term borrowings. In addition, we may incur indebtedness in connection with the acquisition of real estate, refinance the debt thereon, arrange for the leveraging of any previously unfinanced property, or reinvest the proceeds of financings or refinancings in additional properties.

Sources and Uses of Cash During the Period

We closed our initial public offering on April 2, 2015 and have invested the proceeds of that offering. We expect to continue to invest, primarily in a diversified portfolio of income-producing commercial properties and other real estate-related assets, with our primary source of operating cash flow to be generated from cash flow from our investments. We expect that these cash flows will fluctuate periodically due to a number of factors, which may include, among other things: the timing of purchases and sales of real estate; the timing of the receipt of proceeds from, and the repayment of, non-recourse mortgage loans and bonds payable, and the receipt of lease revenues; whether our Advisor receives fees in shares of our common stock or cash, which our board of directors must elect after consultation with our Advisor; the timing and characterization of distributions received from equity investments in real estate; the timing of payments of the Available Cash Distributions to our Advisor; and changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Despite these fluctuations, we believe our investments will generate sufficient cash from operations to meet our normal recurring short-term and long-term liquidity needs. We may also use existing cash resources, the proceeds of non-recourse mortgage loans, proceeds from notes payable to WPC, sales of assets, distributions reinvested in our common stock through our DRIP, and the issuance of additional equity securities to meet these needs. We assess our ability to access capital on an ongoing basis. Our sources and uses of cash during the period are described below.

Operating Activities — Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $7.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 as compared the same period in 2016, primarily reflecting the impact of investments acquired during 2016 and 2017.

Investing Activities — Our investing activities are generally comprised of real estate purchases, funding of build-to-suit development projects, payment of deferred acquisition fees to our Advisor for asset acquisitions, and capitalized property-related costs.

Net cash used in investing activities totaled $56.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. This was primarily the result of cash outflows of $30.5 million to fund construction costs of our build-to-suit projects (Note 4), $27.7 million for our real estate investments, $5.6 million for capital contributions to our equity investments, and $3.1 million for capital expenditures on our owned real estate. We also had cash inflows of $12.1 million for value added taxes refunded in connection with real estate acquisitions.

Financing Activities — Net cash used in financing activities totaled $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. This was primarily due to cash outflows of $42.2 million related to distributions paid to our stockholders, $8.3 million for distributions to noncontrolling interests, $7.3 million for the repurchase of shares of our common stock pursuant to our redemption program, and $6.3 million for scheduled payments and prepayments of mortgage loan principal. We received cash proceeds of $32.6 million from non-recourse mortgage financings (Note 9), $21.2 million of net proceeds received through our DRIP, $6.7 million net proceeds from notes payable to WPC (Note 3), and $2.3 million contributions from noncontrolling interest.



CPA®:18 – Global 6/30/2017 10-Q 47




Distributions

Our objectives are to generate sufficient cash flow over time to provide stockholders with distributions and to continue to seek investments with potential for capital appreciation throughout varying economic cycles. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, we declared distributions to stockholders of $42.6 million, which were comprised of $20.3 million of cash distributions and $22.3 million reinvested by stockholders in shares of our common stock pursuant to our DRIP. From inception through June 30, 2017, we declared distributions to stockholders totaling $259.0 million, which were comprised of cash distributions of $121.4 million and $137.6 million reinvested by stockholders in shares of our common stock pursuant to our DRIP. We believe that FFO, a non-GAAP measure, is the most appropriate metric to evaluate our ability to fund distributions to stockholders. For a discussion of FFO, see Supplemental Financial Measures below.

Over the life of our company, the regular quarterly cash distributions we pay are expected to be principally sourced from our FFO or cash flow from operations. However, we have funded a portion of our cash distributions to date using net proceeds from our initial public offering and there can be no assurance that our FFO or cash flow from operations will be sufficient to cover our future distributions. Our distribution coverage using FFO was approximately 94.9% and 35.0% of total distributions declared for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and on a cumulative basis through that date, respectively, with the balance funded primarily with proceeds from our offering and, to a lesser extent, other sources. We funded 93.3% of total distributions declared for the six months ended June 30, 2017 from Net cash provided by operating activities. Since inception, we have funded 57.0% of our cumulative distributions from Net cash provided by operating activities, with the remaining 43.0%, or $111.3 million, being funded primarily with proceeds from our offering and, to a lesser extent, other sources. FFO and cash flow from operations are first applied to current period distributions, then to any deficit from prior period cumulative negative FFO or cumulative negative cash flow, as applicable, and finally to future period distributions. As we have fully invested the proceeds of our offering, we expect that in the future, if distributions cannot be fully sourced from FFO or cash flow from operations, they may be sourced from the proceeds of financings or the sales of assets. In determining our distribution policy to date, we have placed primary emphasis on projections of cash flow from operations, together with cash distributions from our unconsolidated investments, rather than on historical results of operations (though these and other factors may be a part of our consideration). Thus, in setting a distribution rate, we focus primarily on expected returns from those investments we have already made, including ongoing build-to-suit projects that have not yet been placed into service, as well as our anticipated rate of return from any future investments, to assess the sustainability of a particular distribution rate over time.

Redemptions

We maintain a quarterly redemption program pursuant to which we may, at the discretion of our board of directors, redeem shares of our common stock from stockholders seeking liquidity. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we received 222 and 40 requests to redeem 822,433 and 127,524 shares of Class A and Class C common stock, respectively, all of which were satisfied as of the date of this Report, at a weighted-average price, net of redemption fees, of $7.77 and $7.55 per share, respectively, totaling $7.3 million for both Class A and Class C common stock. Except for redemptions sought in special circumstances, the redemption price of the shares listed above was 95% of our most recently published NAV. For shares redeemed under special circumstances, the redemption price was the greater of the price paid to acquire the shares from us or 95% of our most recently published NAV.

Cash Resources
 
At June 30, 2017, our cash resources consisted of cash and cash equivalents totaling $55.5 million. Of this amount, $28.8 million, at then-current exchange rates, was held in foreign subsidiaries, but we could be subject to restrictions or significant costs should we decide to repatriate these amounts. As of June 30, 2017, we had $39.4 million available to borrow under third-party financing arrangements for either funding of construction or mortgage financing upon completion of certain of our build-to-suit and development projects (Note 9), which excludes $41.0 million related to the university complex development site located in Accra, Ghana (Note 4) that is subject to the tenant obtaining a letter of credit. Our cash resources may be used for future investments and can be used for working capital needs, other commitments, and distributions to our stockholders.

In July 2016, our board of directors and the board of directors of WPC approved unsecured loans from WPC to us, at the sole discretion of WPC’s management, of up to $50.0 million in the aggregate, at a rate equal to the rate at which WPC can borrow funds under its senior credit facility, for acquisition funding purposes. At June 30, 2017, we had $34.2 million of such loans outstanding from WPC. The annual interest rate equaled LIBOR plus 1.1% through February 22, 2017. After that date, the annual interest rate equals LIBOR plus 1.0%.

Cash Requirements
 
During the next 12 months, we expect that our cash requirements will include payments to acquire new investments, funding capital commitments such as build-to-suit projects, paying distributions to our stockholders and to our affiliates that hold noncontrolling interests in entities we control, making share repurchases pursuant to our redemption plan, and making scheduled debt servicing payments, as well as other normal recurring operating expenses. Balloon payments totaling $16.4 million on our consolidated mortgage loan obligations to third parties are due during the next 12 months. Our Advisor is actively seeking to refinance certain of these loans, although there can be no assurance that it will be able to do so on favorable terms, or at all. Additionally, we have two outstanding loans from WPC which are set to mature in October 2017 and May 2018, respectively (Note 3). We expect to fund $90.2 million related to capital and other lease commitments during the next 12 months. We expect to fund future investments, capital commitments, any capital expenditures on existing properties, and scheduled and unscheduled debt payments on our mortgage loans through the use of our cash reserves, cash generated from operations, and proceeds from financings and asset sales.

Equity Method Investment

We have an interest in an unconsolidated investment that relates to a joint venture for the development of self-storage facilities in Canada. This investment is jointly owned with a third party, which is also the general partner. At June 30, 2017, the total equity investment balance for these properties was $20.8 million. The joint venture also had total third-party recourse debt of $17.9 million.

Supplemental Financial Measures

In the real estate industry, analysts and investors employ certain non-GAAP supplemental financial measures in order to facilitate meaningful comparisons between periods and among peer companies. Additionally, in the formulation of our goals and in the evaluation of the effectiveness of our strategies, we use FFO, MFFO, and Adjusted MFFO, which are non-GAAP measures. We believe that these measures are useful to investors to consider because they may assist them to better understand and measure the performance of our business over time and against similar companies. A description of FFO, MFFO, and Adjusted MFFO and reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are provided below.

FFO, MFFO, and Adjusted MFFO

Due to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, as discussed below, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc., or NAREIT, an industry trade group, has promulgated a non-GAAP measure known as FFO which we believe to be an appropriate supplemental measure, when used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP, to reflect the operating performance of a REIT. The use of FFO is recommended by the REIT industry as a supplemental non-GAAP measure. FFO is not equivalent to nor a substitute for net income or loss as determined under GAAP.

We define FFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the standards established by the White Paper on FFO approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, as revised in February 2004. The White Paper defines FFO as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from sales of property, impairment charges on real estate, and depreciation and amortization from real estate assets; and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments are calculated to reflect FFO. Our FFO calculation complies with NAREIT’s policy described above. However, NAREIT’s definition of FFO does not distinguish between the conventional method of equity accounting and the hypothetical liquidation at book value method of accounting for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments.

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, especially if such assets are not adequately maintained or repaired and renovated as required by relevant circumstances and/or is requested or required by lessees for operational purposes in order to maintain the value disclosed. We believe that, since real estate values historically rise and fall with market conditions, including inflation, interest rates, the business cycle, unemployment, and consumer spending, presentations of operating results for a REIT using historical accounting for depreciation may be less informative. Historical accounting for real estate involves the use of GAAP. Any other method of accounting for real estate such as the fair value method cannot be construed to be any more accurate or relevant than the comparable methodologies of real estate valuation found in GAAP. Nevertheless, we believe that the use of FFO, which excludes the impact of real estate-related depreciation and amortization, as well as impairment charges of real estate-related assets, provides a more complete understanding of our performance to investors and to management; and when compared year over year, reflects the impact on our operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, general and administrative expenses, and interest costs, which may not be immediately apparent from net income. In particular, we believe it is appropriate to disregard impairment charges, as this is a fair value adjustment that is largely based on market fluctuations and assessments regarding general market conditions, which can change over time. An asset will only be evaluated for impairment if certain impairment indicators exist. Then a two-step process is performed, of which first is to determine whether an asset is impaired by comparing the carrying value, or book value, to the total estimated undiscounted future cash flows (including net rental and lease revenues, net proceeds on the sale of the property, and any other ancillary cash flows at a property or group level under GAAP) from such asset, then measure the impairment loss as the excess of the carrying value over its estimated fair value. It should be noted, however, that determinations of whether impairment charges have been incurred are based partly on anticipated operating performance, because estimated undiscounted future cash flows from a property (including estimated future net rental and lease revenues, net proceeds on the sale of the property, and certain other ancillary cash flows) are taken into account in determining whether an impairment charge has been incurred. While impairment charges are excluded from the calculation of FFO


CPA®:18 – Global 6/30/2017 10-Q 51




described above due to the fact that impairments are based on estimated future undiscounted cash flows, it could be difficult to recover any impairment charges. However, FFO, MFFO, and Adjusted MFFO, as described below, should not be construed to be more relevant or accurate than the current GAAP methodology in calculating net income or in its applicability in evaluating the operating performance of the company. The method utilized to evaluate the value and performance of real estate under GAAP should be construed as a more relevant measure of operational performance and considered more prominently than the non-GAAP measures FFO, MFFO, and Adjusted MFFO and the adjustments to GAAP in calculating FFO, MFFO, and Adjusted MFFO.

Changes in the accounting and reporting promulgations under GAAP (for acquisition fees and expenses from a capitalization/depreciation model to an expensed-as-incurred model) were put into effect in 2009. These changes to GAAP accounting for real estate subsequent to the establishment of NAREIT’s definition of FFO have prompted an increase in cash-settled expenses, such as acquisition fees that are typically accounted for as operating expenses. Management believes these fees and expenses do not affect our overall long-term operating performance. Publicly registered, non-traded REITs typically have a significant amount of acquisition activity and are substantially more dynamic during their initial years of investment and operation. While other start-up entities may also experience significant acquisition activity during their initial years, we believe that non-listed REITs are unique in that they have a limited life with targeted exit strategies within a relatively limited time frame after acquisition activity ceases. We currently intend to begin the process of achieving a liquidity event (i.e., listing of our common stock on a national exchange, a merger or sale of our assets, or another similar transaction) beginning in April 2022, which is seven years following the closing of our initial public offering. Due to the above factors and other unique features of publicly registered, non-traded REITs, the Investment Program Association, an industry trade group, has standardized a measure known as MFFO, which the Investment Program Association has recommended as a supplemental measure for publicly registered non-traded REITs and which we believe to be another appropriate non-GAAP measure to reflect the operating performance of a non-traded REIT having the characteristics described above. MFFO is not equivalent to our net income or loss as determined under GAAP, and MFFO may not be a useful measure of the impact of long-term operating performance on value if we do not continue to operate with a limited life and targeted exit strategy, as currently intended. We believe that, because MFFO excludes costs that we consider more reflective of investing activities and other non-operating items included in FFO, and also excludes acquisition fees and expenses that affect our operations only in periods in which properties are acquired, MFFO can provide, on a going forward basis, an indication of the sustainability (that is, the capacity to continue to be maintained) of our operating performance after the period in which we are acquiring properties and once our portfolio is in place. By providing MFFO, we believe we are presenting useful information that assists investors and analysts to better assess the sustainability of our operating performance now that our initial public offering has been completed and once essentially all of our properties have been acquired. We also believe that MFFO is a recognized measure of sustainable operating performance by the non-traded REIT industry. Further, we believe MFFO is useful in comparing the sustainability of our operating performance, with the sustainability of the operating performance of other real estate companies that are not as involved in acquisition activities. MFFO should only be used to assess the sustainability of a company’s operating performance after a company’s offering has been completed and properties have been acquired, as it excludes acquisition costs that have a negative effect on a company’s operating performance during the periods in which properties are acquired.

We define MFFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the Investment Program Association’s Guideline 2010-01, Supplemental Performance Measure for Publicly Registered, Non-Listed REITs: Modified Funds from Operations, or the Practice Guideline, issued by the Investment Program Association in November 2010. The Practice Guideline defines MFFO as FFO further adjusted for the following items, included in the determination of GAAP net income, as applicable: acquisition fees and expenses; amounts relating to deferred rent receivables and amortization of above- and below-market leases and liabilities (which are adjusted in order to reflect such payments from a GAAP accrual basis to a cash basis of disclosing the rent and lease payments); accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums on debt investments; nonrecurring impairments of real estate-related investments (i.e., infrequent or unusual, not reasonably likely to recur in the ordinary course of business); mark-to-market adjustments included in net income; nonrecurring gains or losses included in net income from the extinguishment or sale of debt, hedges, foreign exchange, derivatives, or securities holdings where trading of such holdings is not a fundamental attribute of the business plan, unrealized gains or losses resulting from consolidation from, or deconsolidation to, equity accounting, and after adjustments for consolidated and unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments, with such adjustments calculated to reflect MFFO on the same basis. The accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums on debt investments, unrealized gains and losses on hedges, foreign exchange, derivatives or securities holdings, unrealized gains and losses resulting from consolidations, as well as other listed cash flow adjustments are adjustments made to net income in calculating the cash flows provided by operating activities and, in some cases, reflect gains or losses that are unrealized and may not ultimately be realized.



CPA®:18 – Global 6/30/2017 10-Q 52




Our MFFO calculation complies with the Investment Program Association’s Practice Guideline described above. In calculating MFFO, we exclude acquisition-related expenses, amortization of above- and below-market leases, fair value adjustments of derivative financial instruments, deferred rent receivables, and the adjustments of such items related to noncontrolling interests. Under GAAP, acquisition fees and expenses are characterized as operating expenses in determining operating net income. These expenses are paid in cash by a company. All paid and accrued acquisition fees and expenses will have negative effects on returns to investors, the potential for future distributions, and cash flows generated by the company, unless earnings from operations or net sales proceeds from the disposition of other properties are generated to cover the purchase price of the property, these fees and expenses, and other costs related to such property. Further, under GAAP, certain contemplated non-cash fair value and other non-cash adjustments are considered operating non-cash adjustments to net income in determining cash flow from operating activities.

Our management uses MFFO and the adjustments used to calculate it in order to evaluate our performance against other non-traded REITs, which have limited lives with short and defined acquisition periods and targeted exit strategies shortly thereafter. As noted above, MFFO may not be a useful measure of the impact of long-term operating performance on value if we do not continue to operate in this manner. We believe that MFFO and the adjustments used to calculate it allow us to present our performance in a manner that takes into account certain characteristics unique to non-traded REITs, such as their limited life, defined acquisition period, and targeted exit strategy, and is therefore a useful measure for investors. For example, acquisition costs are generally funded from the proceeds of our offering and other financing sources and not from operations. By excluding expensed acquisition costs, the use of MFFO provides information consistent with management’s analysis of the operating performance of the properties. Additionally, fair value adjustments, which are based on the impact of current market fluctuations and underlying assessments of general market conditions, but can also result from operational factors such as rental and occupancy rates, may not be directly related or attributable to our current operating performance. By excluding such changes that may reflect anticipated and unrealized gains or losses, we believe MFFO provides useful supplemental information.

In addition, our management uses Adjusted MFFO as another measure of sustainable operating performance. Adjusted MFFO adjusts MFFO for deferred income tax expenses and benefits, which are non-cash items that may cause short-term fluctuations in net income but have no impact on current period cash flows. Additionally, we adjust MFFO to reflect the realized gains/losses on the settlement of foreign currency derivatives to arrive at Adjusted MFFO. Foreign currency derivatives are a fundamental part of our operations in that they help us manage the foreign currency exposure we have associated with cash flows from our international investments.

Presentation of this information is intended to provide useful information to investors as they compare the operating performance of different REITs, although it should be noted that not all REITs calculate FFO, MFFO, and Adjusted MFFO the same way, so comparisons with other REITs may not be meaningful. Furthermore, FFO, MFFO, and Adjusted MFFO are not necessarily indicative of cash flow available to fund cash needs and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indication of our performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operations as an indication of our liquidity, or indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs including our ability to make distributions to our stockholders. FFO, MFFO, and Adjusted MFFO should be reviewed in conjunction with other GAAP measurements as an indication of our performance.

Neither the SEC, NAREIT, nor any other regulatory body has passed judgment on the acceptability of the adjustments that we use to calculate FFO, MFFO, and Adjusted MFFO. In the future, the SEC, NAREIT, or another regulatory body may decide to standardize the allowable adjustments across the non-traded REIT industry and we would have to adjust our calculation and characterization of FFO, MFFO, or Adjusted MFFO accordingly.

__________
(a)
Under GAAP, rental receipts are allocated to periods using an accrual basis. This may result in timing of income recognition that is significantly different than underlying contract terms. By adjusting for these items (to reflect such payments from a GAAP accrual basis to a cash basis of disclosing the rent and lease payments), management believes that MFFO, and Adjusted MFFO provides useful supplemental information on the realized economic impact of lease terms and debt investments, provides insight on the contractual cash flows of such lease terms and debt investments, and aligns results with management’s analysis of operating performance.
(b)
Under GAAP, certain intangibles are accounted for at cost and reviewed at least annually for impairment, and certain intangibles are assumed to diminish predictably in value over time and amortized, similar to depreciation and amortization of other real estate related assets that are excluded from FFO. However, because real estate values and market lease rates historically rise or fall with market conditions, management believes that by excluding charges relating to amortization of these intangibles, MFFO, and Adjusted MFFO provides useful supplemental information on the performance of the real estate.


CPA®:18 – Global 6/30/2017 10-Q 54




(c)
In evaluating investments in real estate, management differentiates the costs to acquire the investment from the operations derived from the investment. Such information would be comparable only for non-traded REITs that have completed their acquisition activity and have other similar operating characteristics. By excluding expensed acquisition costs, management believes MFFO and Adjusted MFFO provide useful supplemental information that is comparable for each type of real estate investment and is consistent with management’s analysis of the investing and operating performance of our properties. Acquisition fees and expenses include payments to our Advisor or third parties. Acquisition fees and expenses under GAAP are considered operating expenses and expenses included in the determination of net income (loss), which is a performance measure under GAAP. All paid and accrued acquisition fees and expenses will have negative effects on returns to stockholders, the potential for future distributions, and cash flows generated by us, unless earnings from operations or net sales proceeds from the disposition of properties are generated to cover the purchase price of the property, these fees and expenses, and other costs related to the property.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Market Risk

Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, and equity prices. The primary risks that we are exposed to are interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange risk. We are also exposed to further market risk as a result of tenant concentrations in certain industries and/or geographic regions, since adverse market factors can affect the ability of tenants in a particular industry/region to meet their respective lease obligations. In order to manage this risk, our Advisor views our collective tenant roster as a portfolio and attempts to diversify such portfolio so that we are not overexposed to a particular industry or geographic region.

Generally, we do not use derivative instruments to hedge credit/market risks or for speculative purposes. However, from time to time, we may enter into foreign currency forward contracts and collars to hedge our foreign currency cash flow exposures.

Interest Rate Risk
 
The values of our real estate, related fixed-rate debt obligations, and notes receivable investments are subject to fluctuations based on changes in interest rates. The value of our real estate is also subject to fluctuations based on local and regional economic conditions and changes in the creditworthiness of lessees, which may affect our ability to refinance property-level mortgage debt when balloon payments are scheduled, if we do not choose to repay the debt when due. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political conditions, and other factors beyond our control. An increase in interest rates would likely cause the fair value of our assets to decrease. Increases in interest rates may also have an impact on the credit profile of certain tenants.
 
We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes primarily through our borrowing activities. To limit this exposure, we have historically attempted to obtain non-recourse mortgage financing on a long-term, fixed-rate basis. However, from time to time, we or our joint investment partners have obtained, and may in the future obtain, variable-rate non-recourse mortgage loans, and, as a result, we have entered into, and may continue to enter into, interest rate swap agreements or interest rate cap agreements with lenders. Interest rate swap agreements effectively convert the variable-rate debt service obligations of a loan to a fixed rate, while interest rate cap agreements limit the underlying interest rate from exceeding a specified strike rate. Interest rate swaps are agreements in which one party exchanges a stream of interest payments for a counterparty’s stream of cash flows over a specific period, and interest rate caps limit the effective borrowing rate of variable-rate debt obligations while allowing participants to share in downward shifts in interest rates. These interest rate swaps and caps are derivative instruments that, where applicable, are designated as cash flow hedges on the forecasted interest payments on the debt obligation. The face amount on which the swaps or caps are based is not exchanged. Our objective in using these derivatives is to limit our exposure to interest rate movements. At June 30, 2017, we estimated that the total fair value of our interest rate swaps and caps, which are included in Other assets, net and Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities in the consolidated financial statements, was in a net liability position of $0.8 million (Note 8).

At June 30, 2017, our outstanding debt either bore interest at fixed rates, was swapped or capped to a fixed rate or, in the case of one of our Norwegian investments, inflation-linked to the Norwegian CPI. The annual interest rates on our fixed-rate debt at June 30, 2017 ranged from 1.6% to 5.8%. The contractual annual interest rates on our variable-rate debt at June 30, 2017 ranged from 1.6% to 5.1%. Our debt obligations are more fully described in Note 9 and Liquidity and Capital Resources — Summary of Financing in Item 2 above. The following table presents principal cash outflows for the remainder of 2017, each of the next four calendar years following December 31, 2017, and thereafter, based upon expected maturity dates of our debt obligations outstanding at June 30, 2017 (in thousands):

CPA®:18 – Global 6/30/2017 10-Q 56




The estimated fair value of our fixed-rate debt and variable-rate debt, which either have effectually been converted to a fixed rate through the use of interest rate swaps or, in the case of one our Norwegian investments, is inflation-linked to the Norwegian CPI, is affected by changes in interest rates. A decrease or increase in interest rates of 1% would change the estimated fair value of this debt at June 30, 2017 by an aggregate increase of $55.8 million or an aggregate decrease of $60.8 million, respectively. Annual interest expense on our unhedged variable-rate debt at June 30, 2017 would increase or decrease by $0.4 million for each respective 1% change in annual interest rates.

As more fully described under Liquidity and Capital Resources — Summary of Financing in Item 2 above, a portion of our variable-rate debt in the table above bore interest at fixed rates at June 30, 2017, but has interest rate reset features that will change the fixed interest rates to then-prevailing market fixed rates at certain points during their term. This debt is generally not subject to short-term fluctuations in interest rates.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

We own international investments, primarily in Europe, and as a result, are subject to risk from the effects of exchange rate movements in various foreign currencies, primarily the euro and the Norwegian krone, which may affect future costs and cash flows. Although most of our foreign investments through the second quarter of 2017 were conducted in these currencies, we may conduct business in other currencies in the future. We manage foreign currency exchange rate movements by generally placing both our debt service obligation to the lender and the tenant’s rental obligation to us in the same currency. This reduces our overall exposure to the actual equity that we have invested and the equity portion of our cash flow. In addition, we may use currency hedging to further reduce the exposure to our equity cash flow. We are generally a net receiver of these currencies (we receive more cash than we pay out), therefore our foreign operations benefit from a weaker U.S. dollar and are adversely affected by a stronger U.S. dollar, relative to the foreign currency.

We have obtained, and may in the future obtain, non-recourse mortgage and bond financing in local currencies. To the extent that currency fluctuations increase or decrease rental revenues, as translated to U.S. dollars, the change in debt service, as translated to U.S. dollars, will partially offset the effect of fluctuations in revenue and, to some extent, mitigate the risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

The June 23, 2016 referendum by voters in the United Kingdom to exit the European Union, a process commonly referred to as “Brexit,” adversely impacted global markets, including the currencies, and has resulted in a decline in the value of the British pound sterling as compared to the U.S. dollar. Volatility in exchange rates is expected to continue as the United Kingdom negotiates its likely exit from the European Union. As of June 30, 2017, 4% and 35% of our total pro rata ABR was from the United Kingdom and other European Union countries, respectively. Any impact from Brexit on us will depend, in part, on the outcome of the related tariff, trade, regulatory, and other negotiations.  Although it is unknown what the result of those negotiations will be, it is possible that new terms may adversely affect our operations and financial results. 

Scheduled future minimum rents, exclusive of renewals, under non-cancelable operating leases for our consolidated foreign operations as of June 30, 2017 during the remainder of 2017, each of the next four calendar years following December 31, 2017, and thereafter, are as follows (in thousands):

__________
(a)
Amounts are based on the applicable exchange rates at June 30, 2017. Contractual rents and debt obligations are denominated in the functional currency of the country where each property is located.
(b)
We estimate that, for a 1% increase or decrease in the exchange rate between the euro and the U.S. dollar, there would be a corresponding change in the projected estimated property-level cash flow at June 30, 2017 of $2.3 million.
(c)
We estimate that, for a 1% increase or decrease in the exchange rate between the Norwegian krone and the U.S. dollar, there would be a corresponding change in the projected estimated property-level cash flow at June 30, 2017 of $0.6 million.
(d)
We estimate that, for a 1% increase or decrease in the exchange rate between the British pound sterling and the U.S. dollar, there would be an insignificant corresponding change in the projected estimated property-level cash flow at June 30, 2017.
(e)
Interest on unhedged variable-rate debt obligations was calculated using the applicable annual interest rates and balances outstanding at June 30, 2017.

As a result of scheduled balloon payments on certain of our international debt obligations, projected debt service obligations exceed projected lease revenues in 2020 and 2021 for investments denominated in the euro, in 2020 for the British pound sterling, and after 2020 for the Norwegian krone. We currently anticipate that, by their respective due dates, we will have refinanced certain of these loans, but there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so on favorable terms, if at all. If refinancing has not occurred, we would expect to use our cash resources to make these payments, if necessary.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Concentrations of credit risk arise when a number of tenants are engaged in similar business activities or have similar economic risks or conditions that could cause them to default on their lease obligations to us. We regularly monitor our portfolio to assess potential concentrations of credit risk as we make additional investments. While we believe our portfolio is reasonably well-diversified, it does contain concentrations in excess of 10% based on the percentage of our consolidated total revenues or pro rata ABR.

For the six months ended June 30, 2017, our consolidated portfolio had the following significant characteristics in excess of 10%, based on the percentage of our consolidated total revenues:

68% related to domestic properties, which included concentrations of 14% and 13% in Florida and Texas, respectively; and
32% related to international properties.

At June 30, 2017, our net-leased portfolio, which excludes our operating properties, had the following significant property and lease characteristics in excess of 10% in certain areas, based on the percentage of our pro rata ABR as of that date:

41% related to domestic properties, which included a concentration of 10% in Illinois;
59% related to international properties, which included a concentration in the Netherlands of 16% and Norway of 15%;
51% related to office properties, 14% related to industrial properties, 13% related to warehouse properties, 12% related to retail properties, 10% related to hotel properties; and
11% related to the banking industry, 10% related to the grocery industry, and 10% related to the hotel, gaming, and leisure industry.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our disclosure controls and procedures include internal controls and other procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in this and other reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the required time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms; and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. It should be noted that no system of controls can provide complete assurance of achieving a company’s objectives and that future events may impact the effectiveness of a system of controls.

Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, after conducting an evaluation, together with members of our management, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2017, have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective as of June 30, 2017 at a reasonable level of assurance.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

During the three months ended June 30, 2017, we issued 348,033 shares of our Class A common stock to our Advisor as consideration for asset management fees. These shares were issued at our most recently published NAV of $7.90 per share. Since none of these transactions were considered to have involved a “public offering” within the meaning of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, the shares issued were deemed to be exempt from registration. In acquiring our shares, our Advisor represented that such interests were being acquired by it for investment purposes and not with a view to the distribution thereof. From inception and through June 30, 2017, we have issued a total of 2,915,292 shares of our Class A common stock to our Advisor as consideration for asset management fees.

Represents shares of our Class A and Class C common stock requested to be repurchased under our redemption plan, pursuant to which we may elect to redeem shares at the request of our stockholders, subject to certain exceptions, conditions, and limitations. The maximum amount of shares purchasable by us in any period depends on a number of factors and is at the discretion of our board of directors. During the three months ended June 30, 2017, we received 133 and 20 redemption requests for Class A and Class C common stock, respectively. As of the date of this Report, all such requests were satisfied. We generally receive fees in connection with share redemptions. The average price paid per share will vary depending on the number of redemption requests that were made during the period, the number of redemption requests that qualify for special circumstances, and the most recently published NAV.
