INDUSTRIAL PROPERTY TRUST INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
 
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Unless the context otherwise requires, the “Company” refers to Industrial Property Trust Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, certain disclosures normally included in the annual audited financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) have been omitted. As such, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, filed with the SEC on March 15, 2017 (“2016 Form 10-K”).
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments and eliminations, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation in conformity with GAAP.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards update (“ASU”) No. 2017-01, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business” (“ASU 2017-01”), which clarifies the definition of a business. ASU 2017-01 adds further guidance that assists preparers in evaluating whether a transaction will be accounted for as an asset acquisition or a business combination. The Company expects most of its acquisitions to qualify as asset acquisitions under the standard, which requires the capitalization of transaction costs to the basis of the acquired assets. ASU 2017-01 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2017. However, the Company early adopted this standard effective January 1, 2017. Under this new standard, all acquisition costs are being capitalized instead of expensed. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, $6.4 million of acquisition costs (including the acquisition fees paid to Industrial Property Advisors LLC (the “Advisor”) and its affiliates) were capitalized in net investment in real estate properties on the condensed consolidated balance sheets under the new standard instead of expensed as in prior periods.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASU 2014-09”), which provides guidance for revenue recognition and supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition.” The standard is based on the principle that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance specifically excludes revenue derived from lease contracts from its scope. ASU 2014-09 also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. The effective date for the standard is for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods therein. The Company plans to adopt the standard when it becomes effective for the Company, as of the reporting period beginning January 1, 2018. Rental revenues and certain tenant reimbursement revenue earned from leasing the Company’s operating properties will be evaluated with the adoption of the lease accounting standard (as discussed below). The revised lease accounting standard includes a package of practical expedients that allows an entity to avoid reassessing the accounting for lease components, including the allocations between lease and nonlease components in contracts restated under ASU 2014-09. The Company expects to elect this package of practical expedients, and accordingly will not reallocate contract consideration to lease components within the scope of the existing lease guidance when the Company adopts ASU 2014-09. The Company’s initial analysis of its non-lease related revenue contracts indicates that the adoption of the standard will not have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements. The Company is still in the process of evaluating ASU 2014-09.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Subtopic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”), which provides guidance for greater transparency in financial reporting by organizations that lease assets such as real estate, airplanes and manufacturing equipment by requiring such organizations to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The accounting for lessors will remain largely unchanged from current GAAP; however, the standard requires that lessors expense, on an as-incurred basis, certain initial direct costs that are not incremental in negotiating a lease. Under existing standards, certain of these costs are capitalizable and therefore this new standard will result in certain of these costs being expensed as incurred after adoption. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual and interim

6


reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company plans to adopt the standard when it becomes effective for the Company, as of the reporting period beginning January 1, 2019, and it expects to elect the practical expedients available for implementation under the standard. Under the practical expedients election, the Company would not be required to reassess: (i) whether an expired or existing contract meets the definition of a lease; (ii) the lease classification at the adoption date for expired or existing leases; and (iii) whether costs previously capitalized as initial direct costs would continue to be amortized. The standard also will require new disclosures within the notes accompanying the consolidated financial statements, as well as result in the expensing of certain costs to negotiate and arrange lease agreements. The Company’s initial analysis of its lease contracts indicates that the adoption of this standard will not have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements. The Company is still in the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-02.
In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-05, “Other Income-Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20)” (“ASU 2017-05”), which clarifies the scope of Subtopic 610-20 and provides guidance relating to the accounting treatment for gains and losses from the derecognition of non-financial assets, including the accounting for partial sales. Upon adoption of ASU 2017-05, the Company will recognize, on a prospective basis, the entire gain attributed to sales to unconsolidated co-investment ventures rather than the third-party share the Company recognizes today. For deferred gains from existing partial sales recorded prior to the adoption of the standard, the Company will continue to recognize these gains into earnings over the lives of the assets. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of ASU 2017-05 on its consolidated financial statements and will adopt ASU 2017-05 in conjunction with ASU 2014-09 as of the reporting period beginning on January 1, 2018.
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, “Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities.” The purpose of this updated guidance is to better align a company’s financial reporting for hedging activities with the economic objectives of those activities. The transition guidance provides companies with the option of early adopting the new standard using a modified retrospective transition method in any interim period after issuance of the update, or alternatively requires adoption for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. This adoption method will require the Company to recognize the cumulative effect of initially applying the ASU as an adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive income with a corresponding adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year that an entity adopts the update. While the Company continues to assess all potential impacts of the standard, the Company currently expects adoption to have an immaterial impact on its consolidated financial statements.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Acquisition Costs
Transaction costs associated with the acquisition of a property (including the acquisition fees paid to the Advisor and its affiliates) are allocated to land, building, and intangible lease assets on a pro-rata basis based on allocated purchase price and capitalized as incurred.

The effective interest rate is calculated based on either: (i) the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) multiplied by a statutory reserve rate plus a margin ranging from 1.40% to 2.30%; or (ii) an alternative base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.40% to 1.30%, each depending on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio. The weighted-average effective interest rate is the all-in interest rate, including the effects of interest rate swap agreements relating to $150.0 million in borrowings under this line of credit. As of September 30, 2017, the unused and available portions under the line of credit were $264.0 million and $209.2 million, respectively. The line of credit is available for general corporate purposes, including but not limited to the acquisition and operation of permitted investments.
(2)
The effective interest rate is calculated based on either: (i) LIBOR multiplied by a statutory reserve rate, plus a margin ranging from 1.35% to 2.20%; or (ii) an alternative base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.35% to 1.20%, each depending on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio. The weighted-average effective interest rate is the all-in interest rate, including the effects of interest rate swap agreements. This term loan is available for general corporate purposes, including but not limited to the acquisition and operation of permitted investments.
(3)
The effective interest rate is calculated based on either: (i) LIBOR multiplied by a statutory reserve rate, plus a margin ranging from 1.60% to 2.50%; or (ii) an alternative base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.60% to 1.50%, each depending on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio. The weighted-average effective interest rate is the all-in interest rate. This term loan is available for general corporate purposes, including but not limited to the acquisition and operation of permitted investments.
(4)
Interest rates range from 2.94% to 3.65%, which includes the effects of an interest rate swap agreement relating to a variable-rate mortgage note with an outstanding amount of $97.0 million as of both September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. The assets and credit of each of the Company’s consolidated properties pledged as collateral for the Company’s mortgage notes are not available to satisfy the Company’s other debt and obligations, unless the Company first satisfies the mortgage notes payable on the respective underlying properties.
(5)
The weighted-average remaining term of the Company’s consolidated debt was approximately 4.9 years as of September 30, 2017, excluding any extension options on the line of credit.

The term of the line of credit may be extended pursuant to a one-year extension option, subject to certain conditions.
Debt Covenants
The Company’s line of credit, term loans and mortgage note agreements contain various property level covenants, including customary affirmative and negative covenants. In addition, the line of credit and term loan agreements contain certain corporate level financial covenants, including leverage ratio, fixed charge coverage ratio, and tangible net worth thresholds. The Company was in compliance with all debt covenants as of September 30, 2017.
Derivative Instruments
To manage interest rate risk for certain of its variable-rate debt, the Company uses interest rate swaps as part of its risk management strategy. These derivatives are designed to mitigate the risk of future interest rate increases by providing a fixed interest rate for a limited, pre-determined period of time. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the interest rate swap agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. As of September 30, 2017, the Company had 11 outstanding interest rate swap agreements, which were associated with $597.0 million of debt, that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk. Certain of the Company’s variable-rate borrowings are not hedged, and therefore, to an extent, the Company has on-going exposure to interest rate movements.
The effective portion of the change in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and is subsequently reclassified into earnings as interest expense for the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings, which is when the interest expense is recognized on the related debt. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, there was no hedge ineffectiveness. The Company expects no hedge ineffectiveness in the next 12 months.
The following table summarizes the location and fair value of the cash flow hedges on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets:

8. FAIR VALUE
The Company estimates the fair value of its financial instruments using available market information and valuation methodologies it believes to be appropriate for these purposes. Considerable judgment and a high degree of subjectivity are involved in developing these estimates and, accordingly, they are not necessarily indicative of amounts that the Company would realize upon disposition.
Fair Value Measurements on a Recurring Basis

As of September 30, 2017, the Company had no financial instruments that were transferred among the fair value hierarchy levels. The Company also had no non-financial assets or liabilities that were required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument:
Derivative Instruments. The derivative instruments are interest rate swaps. The interest rate swaps are standard cash flow hedges whose fair value is estimated using market-standard valuation models. Such models involve using market-based observable inputs, including interest rate curves. The Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements, which we have concluded are not material to the valuation. Due to the interest rate swaps being unique and not actively traded, the fair value is classified as Level 2. See “Note 7” above for further discussion of the Company’s derivative instruments.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, tenant receivables, due from/to affiliates, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and distributions payable approximate their carrying values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The table below includes fair values for certain of the Company’s financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate fair value.

In addition to the previously described methods and assumptions for the derivative instruments, the following are the methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of the Company’s other financial instruments:
Line of Credit. The fair value of the line of credit is estimated using discounted cash flow methods based on the Company’s estimate of market interest rates, which the Company has determined to be its best estimate of current market spreads over comparable term benchmark rates of similar instruments. Credit spreads relating to the underlying instruments are based on Level 3 inputs.
Term Loans. The fair value of each of the term loans is estimated using discounted cash flow methods based on the Company’s estimate of market interest rates, which the Company has determined to be its best estimate of current market spreads over comparable term benchmark rates of similar instruments. Credit spreads relating to the underlying instruments are based on Level 3 inputs.
Mortgage Notes. The fair value of each of the mortgage notes is estimated using discounted cash flow methods based on the Company’s estimate of market interest rates, which the Company has determined to be its best estimate of current market spreads over comparable term benchmark rates of similar instruments. Credit spreads relating to the underlying instruments are based on Level 3 inputs.
9. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Initial Public Offering
On September 27, 2012, the Company filed a registration statement with the SEC on Form S-11 in connection with its initial public offering of up to $2.0 billion in shares of common stock (the “Offering”). The registration statement was subsequently declared effective on July 24, 2013. Pursuant to its registration statement, the Company offered for sale up to $2.0 billion in shares of its common stock. Black Creek Capital Markets, LLC (formerly known as Dividend Capital Securities LLC, the “Dealer Manager”), a related party, provides dealer manager services in connection with the Offering.
On August 14, 2015, the Company filed a post-effective amendment to its registration statement that reclassified the Company’s common stock being offered pursuant to the registration statement into Class A shares and Class T shares. The SEC declared the post-effective amendment effective on August 19, 2015, at which time the Company offered for sale up to $1.5 billion in shares of common stock at a price of $10.4407 per Class A share and $9.8298 per Class T share, and up to $500.0 million in shares under the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan at a price of $9.9187 per Class A share and $9.8298 per Class T share. In each case, the offering price was arbitrarily determined by the Company’s board of directors by taking the Company’s estimated net asset value (“NAV”) as of June 30, 2015 of $9.24 per share and adding the respective per share up-front sales commissions, dealer manager fees and organization and offering expenses to be paid with respect to the Class A shares and the Class T shares, such that after the payment of such commissions, fees and expenses, the net proceeds to the Company will be the same for both Class A shares and Class T shares. The NAV was not subject to audit by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The offering prices have been rounded to the nearest whole cent throughout the remainder of this report.

14


On December 22, 2016, the Company’s board of directors unanimously approved a new offering price of $11.0056 per Class A share of the Company’s common stock and a new offering price of $10.3617 per Class T share of the Company’s common stock, and $9.74 per share for shares purchased through the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan. In each case, the offering price was arbitrarily determined by the Company’s board of directors by taking the Company’s estimated NAV as of November 30, 2016 of $9.74 per share and adding the respective per share up-front sales commissions, dealer manager fees and organization and offering expenses to be paid with respect to the Class A shares and the Class T shares, such that after the payment of such commissions, fees and expenses, the net proceeds to the Company would be the same for both Class A shares and Class T shares. The NAV was not subject to audit by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The new Class A offering price and the new Class T offering price took effect with respect to subscriptions accepted by the Company after January 1, 2017.

On June 30, 2017, the Company terminated the primary portion of the Offering. The Company is continuing to offer and sell shares pursuant to its distribution reinvestment plan. On August 30, 2017, the Company filed a post-effective amendment to its registration statement in connection with the termination of the primary portion of the Offering and reallocated all shares remaining unsold in the primary portion of the Offering to the distribution reinvestment plan offering, which is ongoing. Class A shares and Class T shares of the Company’s common stock are being offered pursuant to the distribution reinvestment plan at a price equal to the NAV per share most recently disclosed by the Company, which is presently $9.74 per share. The Company may terminate its distribution reinvestment plan offering at any time.
The Class A shares and Class T shares have identical rights and privileges, including voting rights, but have differing fees that are payable on a class-specific basis, as described in “Note 11.” The per share amount of distributions on Class T shares will be lower than the per share amount of distributions on Class A shares because of the distribution fees payable with respect to Class T shares. The Company’s shares of common stock consist of Class A shares and Class T shares, all of which are collectively referred to herein as shares of common stock.

11. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company relies on the Advisor, a related party, to manage the Company’s day-to-day operating and acquisition activities and to implement the Company’s investment strategy pursuant to the terms of the fifth amended and restated advisory agreement, dated August 12, 2017, by and among the Company, the Operating Partnership, and the Advisor (the “Advisory Agreement”). The current term of the Advisory Agreement ends August 12, 2018, subject to renewals by the Company’s board of directors for an unlimited number of successive one-year periods. The Dealer Manager provides dealer manager services in connection with the Offering. The Sponsor, which owns the Advisor, is presently directly or indirectly majority owned by John A. Blumberg, James R. Mulvihill and Evan H. Zucker and/or their affiliates, and the Sponsor and the Advisor are jointly controlled by Messrs. Blumberg, Mulvihill and Zucker and/or their affiliates. The Dealer Manager is presently directly or indirectly majority owned, controlled and/or managed by Messrs. Blumberg, Mulvihill and/or Zucker and/or their affiliates. Mr. Zucker is the Chairman of our board of directors. The Advisor and the Dealer Manager receive compensation from the Company in the form of fees and expense reimbursements for certain services relating to the Offering and for the investment and management of the Company’s assets. The following summarizes these fees and expense reimbursements:
Sales Commissions. Sales commissions were payable to the Dealer Manager, all of which may have been reallowed to participating unaffiliated broker dealers, and were equal to up to 7.0% and 2.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of Class A shares and Class T shares, respectively, in the primary offering.

17


Dealer Manager Fees. Dealer manager fees were payable to the Dealer Manager, a portion of which may have been reallowed to unaffiliated participating broker dealers, and were equal to up to 2.5% and 2.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of Class A shares and Class T shares, respectively, in the primary offering.
Distribution Fees. Distribution fees are payable to the Dealer Manager with respect to Class T shares issued in the primary portion of the Offering only. All or a portion of the distribution fees are typically reallowed or advanced by the Dealer Manager to unaffiliated participating broker dealers or broker dealers servicing accounts of investors who own Class T shares, referred to as servicing broker dealers. The distribution fees accrue daily, are payable monthly in arrears and will be paid on a continuous basis from year to year. The distribution fees are calculated on outstanding Class T shares issued in the primary offering in an amount equal to 1.0% per annum of (i) the current gross offering price per Class T share, or (ii) if the Company is no longer offering shares in a public offering, the estimated per share value of Class T shares. If the Company is no longer offering shares in a public offering, but has not reported an estimated per share value subsequent to the termination of the Offering, which is the case as of the date of this report, then the gross offering price in effect immediately prior to the termination of the Offering will be deemed the estimated per share value for purposes of the prior sentence. If the Company reports an estimated per share value prior to the termination of the Offering, the distribution fee will continue to be calculated as a percentage of the then current gross offering price per Class T share until the Company reports an estimated per share value following the termination of the Offering, at which point the distribution fee will be calculated based on the new estimated per share value. In the event an estimated per share value reported after termination of the Offering changes, the distribution fee will change immediately with respect to all outstanding Class T shares issued in the primary offering, and will be calculated based on the new gross offering price or the new estimated per share value, without regard to the actual price at which a particular Class T share was issued.
All shares of a particular class will receive the same quarterly per share distribution, including shares issued pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan. The quarterly distributions paid with respect to all outstanding Class T shares will be reduced by the monthly distribution fees calculated with respect to Class T shares issued in the primary offering. The Company does not pay distribution fees with respect to the sale of shares issued pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan or shares issued as stock dividends, although the amount of distribution fees payable with respect to Class T shares sold in its primary offering will be allocated among all Class T shares, including shares issued pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan and those issued as stock dividends, if any. The Company will cease paying distribution fees with respect to all Class T shares on the earliest to occur of the following: (i) a listing of shares of the Company’s common stock on a national securities exchange; (ii) such Class T shares no longer being outstanding; (iii) the Dealer Manager’s determination that total underwriting compensation from all sources, including dealer manager fees, sales commissions, distribution fees and any other underwriting compensation paid to participating broker dealers with respect to all Class A shares and Class T shares would be in excess of 10% of the gross proceeds of the primary portion of the Offering; or (iv) the end of the month in which the transfer agent, on behalf of the Company, determines that total underwriting compensation, including dealer manager fees, sales commissions, and distribution fees with respect to the Class T shares held by a stockholder within his or her particular account, would be in excess of 10% of the total gross investment amount at the time of purchase of the primary Class T shares held in such account.
Acquisition Fees. Acquisition fees are payable to the Advisor in connection with the acquisition of real property, and will vary depending on whether the Advisor provides development services or development oversight services, each as described below, in connection with the acquisition (including, but not limited to, forward commitment acquisitions) or stabilization (including, but not limited to, development and value-add transactions) of such real property, or both. The Company refers to such properties for which the Advisor provides development services or development oversight services as development real properties. For each real property acquired for which the Advisor does not provide development services or development oversight services, the acquisition fee is an amount equal to 2.0% of the total purchase price of the properties acquired (or the Company’s proportional interest therein), including in all instances real property held in joint ventures or co-ownership arrangements. In connection with providing services related to the development, construction, improvement or stabilization, including tenant improvements of development real properties, which the Company refers to collectively as development services, or overseeing the provision of these services by third parties on the Company’s behalf, which the Company refers to as development oversight services, the acquisition fee, which the Company refers to as the development acquisition fee, will equal up to 4.0% of total project cost, including debt, whether borrowed or assumed (or the Company’s proportional interest therein with respect to real properties held in joint ventures or co-ownership arrangements). If the Advisor engages a third party to provide development services directly to the Company, the third party will be compensated directly by the Company and the Advisor will receive the development acquisition fee if it provides the development oversight services. With respect to an acquisition of an interest in a real estate-related entity, the acquisition fee will equal: (i) 2.0% of the Company’s proportionate share of the purchase price of the property owned by any real estate-related entity in which the Company acquires a majority economic interest or that the Company consolidates for financial reporting purposes in accordance with GAAP; and (ii) 2.0% of the purchase price in connection with the acquisition of any interest in any other real estate-related entity. In addition, the

18


Advisor is entitled to receive an acquisition fee of 1.0% of the purchase price, including any third-party expenses related to such investment, in connection with the acquisition or origination of any type of debt investment or other investment.
Asset Management Fees. Asset management fees consist of: (i) a monthly fee of one-twelfth of 0.80% of the aggregate cost (including debt, whether borrowed or assumed, and before non-cash reserves, depreciation and amortization expenses and acquisition fees paid to the Advisor) of each real property asset within the Company’s portfolio (or the Company’s proportional interest therein with respect to real property held in joint ventures, co-ownership arrangements or real estate-related entities in which the Company owns a majority economic interest or that the Company consolidates for financial reporting purposes in accordance with GAAP), provided, that the monthly asset management fee with respect to each real property asset located outside the U.S. that the Company owns, directly or indirectly, will be one-twelfth of 1.20% of the aggregate cost (including debt, whether borrowed or assumed, and before non-cash reserves, depreciation and amortization expenses and acquisition fees paid to the Advisor) of such real property asset; (ii) a monthly fee of one-twelfth of 0.80% of the aggregate cost or investment (before non-cash reserves, depreciation and amortization expenses and acquisition fees paid to the Advisor, as applicable) of any interest in any other real estate-related entity or any type of debt investment or other investment; and (iii) with respect to a disposition, a fee equal to 2.5% of the total consideration paid in connection with the disposition, calculated in accordance with the terms of the Advisory Agreement. The term “disposition” shall include: (i) a sale of one or more assets; (ii) a sale of one or more assets effectuated either directly or indirectly through the sale of any entity owning such assets, including, without limitation, the Company or the Operating Partnership; (iii) a sale, merger, or other transaction in which the stockholders either receive, or have the option to receive, cash, securities redeemable for cash, and/or securities of a publicly traded company; or (iv) a listing of the Company’s common stock on a national securities exchange or the receipt by the Company’s stockholders of securities that are listed on a national securities exchange in exchange for the Company’s common stock.

Organization and Offering Expenses. The Company reimburses the Advisor or its affiliates for cumulative organization expenses and for cumulative expenses of its public offerings up to 2.0% of the aggregate gross offering proceeds from the sale of shares in its public offerings. The Advisor or an affiliate of the Advisor is responsible for the payment of the Company’s cumulative organization expenses and offering expenses to the extent that such cumulative expenses exceed the 2.0% organization and offering expense reimbursement for the Company’s public offerings, without recourse against or reimbursement by the Company. Organization and offering expenses are accrued by the Company only to the extent that the Company is successful in raising gross offering proceeds. If the Company does not raise additional amounts of offering proceeds, no additional amounts will be payable by the Company to the Advisor for reimbursement of cumulative organization and offering expenses. Organization costs are expensed in the period they become reimbursable and offering costs are recorded as a reduction of gross offering proceeds in additional paid-in capital.
Other Expense Reimbursements. In addition to the reimbursement of organization and offering expenses, provided that the Advisor will not be reimbursed for costs of personnel to the extent that such personnel perform services for which the Advisor receives a separate fee, the Company is obligated, subject to certain limitations, to reimburse the Advisor for all of the costs it incurs in connection with the services it provides to the Company, including, without limitation, personnel (and related employment) costs and overhead (including, but not limited to, allocated rent paid to both third parties and an affiliate of the Advisor, equipment, utilities, insurance, travel and entertainment, and other costs) incurred by the Advisor or its affiliates, including, but not limited to, total compensation, benefits and other overhead of all employees involved in the performance of such services. The Advisor may utilize its employees to provide such services and in certain instances those employees may include the Company’s executive officers.

Fees are netted against the respective gain and are included in the related net gain amount on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
(4)
Other expense reimbursements include certain expenses incurred in connection with the services provided to the Company under the Advisory Agreement. These reimbursements include a portion of compensation expenses of individual employees of the Advisor, including certain of the Company’s named executive officers, of the Advisor related to activities for which the Advisor does not otherwise receive a separate fee. The Company reimbursed the Advisor approximately $0.9 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $3.1 million and $2.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, for such compensation expenses.

(5)
Development acquisition fees are included in the total development project costs of the respective properties and are capitalized in construction in progress, which is included in net investment in real estate properties on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. Amounts also include the Company’s proportionate share of development acquisition fees relating to the joint ventures, which is included in investment in unconsolidated joint ventures on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.
(6)
The distribution fees accrue daily and are payable monthly in arrears. As of September 30, 2017, the monthly amount of distribution fees payable of $0.6 million is included in distributions payable on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Additionally, the Company accrues for future estimated amounts payable based on the shares outstanding as of the balance sheet date. As of September 30, 2017, the future estimated amounts payable of $27.9 million are included in due to affiliates on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Joint Ventures. Both the BTC I Partnership and the BTC II Partnership (described in “Note 6”) pay fees to the Advisor and/or a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Advisor for providing advisory services to both joint ventures. These advisory services include acquisition and asset management services and, to the extent applicable, development management and development oversight services. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 the joint ventures incurred in aggregate approximately $1.3 million and $3.8 million, respectively, in acquisition and asset management fees, which were paid to the Advisor and its wholly-owned subsidiary pursuant to the respective service agreements, as compared to $0.9 million and $2.2 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016.
Expense Support Agreement
In October 2013, the Company entered into an Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement (as amended, the “Expense Support Agreement”) with the Operating Partnership and the Advisor. Pursuant to the Expense Support Agreement, the Advisor has agreed to defer payment of all or a portion of the asset management fee otherwise payable to it pursuant to the Advisory Agreement if Company-defined funds from operations (“CDFFO” or “Company-defined FFO”), as disclosed in the Company’s quarterly and annual reports, for a particular quarter is less than the aggregate distributions that would have been declared for such quarter assuming daily distributions at a specified quarterly rate per share of common stock (the “Baseline Distributions”). Baseline Distributions were equal to: $0.11250 per share from January 1 through June 30, 2014; $0.11875 per share from July 1 through September 30, 2014; and $0.1250 per share from October 1, 2014 through June 30, 2015. In addition, pursuant to the Expense Support Agreement that was in effect through June 30, 2015, prior to the amendment and restatement of the agreement as described below, the Advisor, in its sole discretion, could elect to fund certain expenses of the Company and the Operating Partnership as expense support payments. Subject to certain conditions and limitations, the Advisor is entitled to reimbursement from the Company for any asset management fees that were deferred and any expense support payments that it made pursuant to the agreement that was in effect through June 30, 2015.
The Expense Support Agreement was amended and restated on August 14, 2015, effective from July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2018. Pursuant to the amended and restated Expense Support Agreement, for the period from July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2018, Baseline Distributions means the aggregate distributions that are declared on the Company’s common stock in accordance with the quarterly distribution rate for such quarter; provided that for purposes of calculating the amount of payment by the Advisor pursuant to the agreement, such amount will not exceed the amount that would have been declared on shares of the Company’s common stock assuming a quarterly distribution rate of $0.13515 per share (which is the rate that the Company’s board of directors authorized for the fourth quarter of 2015 and each quarter of 2016 with respect to the Company’s Class A shares and the Company’s Class T shares (less the annual distribution fees that are payable monthly with respect to such Class T shares, as calculated on a daily basis)). Starting with any asset management fees waived pursuant to the agreement on or after July 1, 2015, the Advisor will not be entitled to reimbursement from the Company.
In addition, beginning on July 1, 2015 and ending upon the termination or expiration of the agreement, if, in a given calendar quarter, the Company’s CDFFO is less than the Baseline Distributions for such quarter, and the waived asset management fee is not sufficient to satisfy the shortfall for such quarter (a “Deficiency”), the Advisor will be required to fund certain expenses of the Company or the Operating Partnership in an amount equal to such Deficiency. Starting with any such payments made by the Advisor on or after July 1, 2015 to cover a Deficiency, the Advisor is not entitled to reimbursement from the Company. The Expense Support Agreement, as amended, will govern all waivers and payments made by the Advisor from July 1, 2015 through the second quarter of 2018. The Advisor still will be entitled to reimbursement of amounts owed to it by the Company prior to July 1, 2015 pursuant to the prior versions of the agreement in accordance with the terms thereof.
For the period beginning on July 1, 2015 and terminating on the earlier of the expiration or termination of the agreement, in no event will the aggregate of the waived asset management fees and the Deficiency support payments, when added to all amounts deferred or paid by the Advisor prior to August 14, 2015 under the prior versions of the Expense Support Agreement (approximately $5.4 million), exceed $30.0 million (the “Maximum Amount”). As of September 30, 2017, the aggregate amount paid by the Advisor pursuant to the Expense Support Agreement was $7.4 million. Of this amount, the Company has fully reimbursed the $5.4 million that was potentially reimbursable to the Advisor, and there are no additional amounts reimbursable to the Advisor under the Expense Support Agreement.
Although the Expense Support Agreement has an effective term through June 30, 2018, it may be terminated prior thereto without cause or penalty by a majority of the Company’s independent directors upon 30 days’ written notice to the Advisor. In addition, the Advisor’s obligations under the Expense Support Agreement will immediately terminate upon the earlier to occur of (i) the termination or non-renewal of the Advisory Agreement, (ii) the delivery by the Company of notice to the Advisor of the Company’s intention to terminate or not renew the Advisory Agreement, (iii) the Company’s completion of a liquidity event or (iv) the time the Advisor has deferred, waived or paid the Maximum Amount. Except with respect to the early termination

events described above, any obligation of the Advisor to make payments under the Expense Support Agreement with respect to the calendar quarter ending June 30, 2018 will remain operative and in full force and effect through the end of such quarter.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
References to the terms “we,” “our,” or “us” refer to Industrial Property Trust Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. The following discussion and analysis should be read together with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes certain statements that may be deemed forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Such forward-looking statements relate to, without limitation, rent and occupancy growth, general conditions in the geographic area where we operate, our future debt and financial position, our future capital expenditures, future distributions and acquisitions (including the amount and nature thereof), other developments and trends of the real estate industry, business strategies and the expansion and growth of our operations. Forward-looking statements are generally identifiable by the use of the words “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “could,” “intend,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “continue,” “project,” or the negative of these words or other comparable terminology. These statements are not guarantees of future performance, and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict.
The forward-looking statements included herein are based upon our current expectations, plans, estimates, assumptions, and beliefs that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions, and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond our control. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, our actual results and performance could differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could have a material adverse effect on our operations and future prospects include, but are not limited to:
Our ability to effectively deploy the proceeds from the Offering in accordance with our investment strategy and objectives;
The failure of properties to perform as we expect;
Risks associated with acquisitions, dispositions and development of properties;
Our failure to successfully integrate acquired properties and operations;
Unexpected delays or increased costs associated with any development projects;
The availability of cash flows from operating activities for distributions and capital expenditures;
Defaults on or non-renewal of leases by customers, lease renewals at lower than expected rent, or failure to lease properties at all or on favorable rents and terms;
Difficulties in economic conditions generally and the real estate, debt, and securities markets specifically;
Legislative or regulatory changes, including changes to the laws governing the taxation of real estate investment trusts (“REITs”);
Our failure to obtain, renew, or extend necessary financing or access the debt or equity markets;
Conflicts of interest arising out of our relationships with Industrial Property Advisors Group LLC (the “Sponsor”), the Advisor, and their affiliates;
Risks associated with using debt to fund our business activities, including re-financing and interest rate risks;
Increases in interest rates, operating costs, or greater than expected capital expenditures;
Changes to GAAP; and
Our ability to continue to qualify as a REIT.
Any of the assumptions underlying forward-looking statements could prove to be inaccurate. Our stockholders are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. All forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the risk that actual results will differ materially from the expectations expressed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q will increase with the passage of time. Except as otherwise required by the federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, whether as a result of new information, future events, changed circumstances, or any other reason. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including, without limitation, the risks described under “Risk Factors,” the inclusion of such forward-looking statements should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that the objectives and plans set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q will be achieved.

OVERVIEW
General
Industrial Property Trust Inc. is a Maryland corporation formed on August 28, 2012 to make investments in income-producing real estate assets consisting primarily of high-quality distribution warehouses and other industrial properties that are leased to creditworthy corporate customers. We have operated and elected to be treated as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2013, and we intend to continue to operate in accordance with the requirements for qualification as a REIT. We utilize an Umbrella Partnership Real Estate Investment Trust (“UPREIT”) organizational structure to hold all or substantially all of our assets through the Operating Partnership.
On July 24, 2013, we commenced an initial public offering of up to $2.0 billion in shares of our common stock (the “Offering”), including $1.5 billion in shares of common stock offered at a price of $10.00 per share and $500.0 million in shares offered under our distribution reinvestment plan at a price of $9.50 per share. On September 6, 2013, we broke escrow for the Offering, and on January 15, 2014, we acquired our first property and began real estate operations.
On August 14, 2015, we filed a post-effective amendment to our registration statement to reclassify our common stock offered pursuant to our registration statement into Class A shares and Class T shares. On August 19, 2015, the SEC declared our post-effective amendment effective and we began offering for sale up to $1.5 billion in shares of common stock at a price of $10.44 per Class A share and $9.83 per Class T share, and up to $500.0 million in shares under our distribution reinvestment plan at a price of $9.92 per Class A share and $9.83 per Class T share.
On December 22, 2016, our board of directors unanimously approved an estimated NAV of our common stock of $9.74 per share based on the number of shares issued and outstanding as of November 30, 2016. The estimated NAV per share was determined in accordance with our valuation policy, utilizing certain guidelines applicable to non-traded REITs. Also on December 22, 2016, our board of directors unanimously approved a new offering price of $11.01 per Class A share of our common stock and a new offering price of $10.36 per Class T share of our common stock, as well as an offering price of $9.74 per share for shares purchased through our distribution reinvestment plan. The new Class A offering price and the new Class T offering price took effect with respect to subscriptions accepted by us after January 1, 2017. Accordingly, the estimated NAV per share of our common stock determined as of November 30, 2016 was 11.5% and 6.0%, respectively, lower than the offering prices with respect to Class A shares and Class T shares. The differences between the offering prices and the actual value per share fluctuate depending on the actual value of our net assets per share at any given point in time. The offering prices have been rounded to the nearest whole cent throughout this report.

On June 30, 2017, we terminated the primary portion of the Offering. We are continuing to offer and sell shares pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan. On August 30, 2017, we filed a post-effective amendment to our registration statement in connection with the termination of the primary portion of the Offering and reallocated all shares remaining unsold in the primary portion of the Offering to the distribution reinvestment plan offering, which is ongoing. Class A shares and Class T shares of our common stock are being offered pursuant to the distribution reinvestment plan at a price equal to the NAV per share we most recently disclosed, which is presently $9.74 per share. We may terminate our distribution reinvestment plan offering at any time.
As of September 30, 2017, we had raised gross proceeds of approximately $1.8 billion from the sale of 175.5 million shares of our common stock in the Offering, including shares issued under our distribution reinvestment plan. See “Note 9 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for information concerning the Offering.
As of September 30, 2017, we owned and managed, either directly or through our minority ownership interests in our joint ventures, a real estate portfolio that included 272 industrial buildings totaling approximately 44.9 million square feet located in 26 markets throughout the U.S., with 495 customers, and was 88.2% occupied (91.4% leased) with a weighted-average remaining lease term (based on square feet) of approximately 4.3 years. The occupied rate reflects the square footage with a paying customer in place. The leased rate includes the occupied square footage and additional square footage with leases in place that have not yet commenced. As of September 30, 2017:
 
255 industrial buildings totaling approximately 41.3 million square feet comprised our operating portfolio, which includes stabilized properties, and was 95.0% occupied (97.3% leased).
17 industrial buildings totaling approximately 3.6 million square feet comprised our development and value-add portfolio, which includes buildings acquired with the intention to reposition or redevelop, or buildings recently completed which have not yet reached stabilization. We generally consider a building to be stabilized on the earlier to occur of the first anniversary of a building’s shell completion or a building achieving 90% occupancy.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we directly acquired 21 buildings comprising approximately 3.0 million square feet for an aggregate total purchase price of approximately $247.3 million, exclusive of transfer taxes, due diligence expenses,

24


acquisition costs (including the acquisition fees paid to the Advisor and its affiliates) and other closing costs. We funded these acquisitions with proceeds from the Offering, debt financings and net proceeds from asset sales. See “Note 3 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional information regarding our acquisitions.
As of September 30, 2017, we owned and managed 40 buildings totaling approximately 7.9 million square feet of the total 44.9 million square feet (discussed above) through our joint ventures (as described in “Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements”). During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the joint ventures acquired eight buildings comprising approximately 1.4 million square feet and completed the development of five buildings comprising approximately 2.0 million square feet for an aggregate total purchase price of approximately $223.6 million, exclusive of transfer taxes, due diligence expenses, acquisition costs (including the acquisition fees paid to the Advisor and its affiliates) and other closing costs. Additionally, as of that date, the joint ventures had 10 buildings under construction totaling approximately 3.1 million square feet, and 14 buildings in the pre-construction phase for an additional 2.1 million square feet. See “Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional information regarding our joint ventures.
From January 2014 through September 30, 2017, we had acquired, either directly or through our joint ventures, 281 buildings comprised of approximately 46.4 million square feet for an aggregate total purchase price of approximately $3.4 billion, exclusive of transfer taxes, due diligence expenses, acquisition costs (including the acquisition fees paid to the Advisor and its affiliates) and other closing costs. We funded these acquisitions primarily with proceeds from the Offering and debt financings.
We have used the net proceeds from the Offering primarily to make investments in real estate assets. We may use the cash flows generated from operating activities, net proceeds from the sale of common stock pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan, funds provided by debt financings and refinancings, and net proceeds from asset sales to continue to acquire real estate assets. The number and type of properties we may acquire and debt and other investments we may make will depend upon real estate market conditions and other circumstances existing at the time we make our investments.
Our primary investment objectives include the following:
Preserving and protecting our stockholders’ capital contributions;
Providing current income to our stockholders in the form of regular distributions; and
Realizing capital appreciation upon the potential sale of our assets or other liquidity events.
There is no assurance that we will attain our investment objectives. Our charter places numerous limitations on us with respect to the manner in which we may invest our funds. In most cases these limitations cannot be changed unless our charter is amended, which may require the approval of our stockholders.
We may acquire assets free and clear of mortgage or other indebtedness by paying the entire purchase price in cash or equity securities, or a combination thereof, and we may selectively encumber all or only certain assets with debt. The proceeds from our borrowings may be used to fund investments, make capital expenditures, pay distributions, and for general corporate purposes.
We expect to manage our financing strategy under the current mortgage lending and corporate financing environment by considering various lending sources, which may include long-term fixed rate mortgage loans, unsecured or secured lines of credit or term loans, private placements or public bond issuances, and the assumption of existing loans in connection with certain property acquisitions, or any combination of the foregoing.
Industrial Real Estate Outlook
Overall, fundamentals for the U.S. industrial real estate sector continue to remain healthy, primarily driven by the continued growth in the U.S. economy. Both U.S. gross domestic product (“GDP”) and consumer spending, including online retailing (or e-commerce), remain positive and we believe will continue growing over the next several quarters. There is a high correlation between these statistics and industrial warehouse demand. Additionally, forecasted growth in both employment and population levels is expected to drive consumer spending growth over the longer-term, leading to increased utilization of distribution warehouses. We expect moderate economic growth in the U.S. to continue throughout 2018, which should continue to drive positive demand for warehouse space as companies expand and upgrade their distribution networks and supply chains.
While growth in the U.S. economy has continued, global trade growth has slowed due to structural factors and increased restrictions on international trade, such as tariffs and quotas on imports. Commodity prices have stabilized and may further recover as planned production cuts from the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (“OPEC”) may lead oil prices higher. Financial market conditions for developing countries tightened significantly following the U.S. elections as concerns over protectionism decreased

25


currencies and increased bond yields globally. Heightened policy uncertainty in the U.S. and Europe will likely weigh on global trade and capital flows throughout the coming year.
Despite certain global uncertainties, the U.S. industrial real estate sector continues to benefit from positive net absorption (the net change in total occupied industrial space), low vacancy rates and rent growth in our primary target markets. Consistent with recent experience and based on current market conditions, we expect average net effective rental rates on new leases signed during the remainder of 2017 and into 2018 to be higher than the rates on expiring leases.
Technological advancements, shifting consumer preferences, and the resultant supply-chain innovations have supported the growth of e-commerce. The dollar volume of retail goods purchased online continues to grow significantly, averaging a 14.3% annual increase compounded over the past five years, and comprises an increasing proportion of total retail sales. As online sales grow and more retailers adapt to changing consumer preferences and technologies, the need for highly-functional warehouse space near major cities is expected to increase.
The capital markets outlook for industrial real estate remains strong as institutional investor demand continues to increase in part driven by the current industrial real estate fundamentals and secular shift to online consumer spending.
Summary of 2017 Activities
During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we completed the following activities:
We raised $181.9 million of gross equity capital from the Offering, including from shares issued pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan. We terminated the primary portion of the Offering on June 30, 2017.
We borrowed $105.0 million under a new mortgage note, with total debt increasing by a net $160.0 million.
We directly acquired 21 industrial buildings, comprised of approximately 3.0 million square feet for an aggregate total purchase price of approximately $247.3 million, exclusive of transfer taxes, due diligence expenses, acquisition costs (including the acquisition fees paid to the Advisor and its affiliates) and other closing costs. We funded these acquisitions primarily with proceeds from the Offering and debt financings.
We sold four industrial buildings aggregating 0.4 million square feet for net proceeds of $15.4 million and recognized net gains of approximately $0.1 million.
We acquired, through our 20.0% ownership interest in the BTC I Partnership, one building comprising approximately 0.2 million square feet, and completed the development of five buildings comprising approximately 2.0 million square feet for an aggregate total purchase price of approximately $140.5 million, exclusive of transfer taxes, due diligence expenses, acquisition costs (including the acquisition fees paid to the Advisor and its affiliates) and other closing costs.
On May 19, 2017, we formed the BTC II Partnership with eight investors as limited partners who collectively own an 85.0% interest in the partnership (collectively, the “QuadReal Limited Partner”). We own a 13.0% interest in the partnership, an affiliate of the Advisor owns a 2.0% interest in the partnership and a subsidiary of the Advisor owns a special limited partnership interest in the partnership. The BTC II Partnership was formed to invest in a portfolio of industrial properties located in certain major U.S. distribution markets. As of September 30, 2017, the BTC II Partnership owned seven industrial buildings totaling approximately 1.2 million square feet.
As of September 30, 2017, we owned and managed, either directly or through our joint ventures, a real estate portfolio comprised of 272 industrial buildings totaling approximately 44.9 million square feet located in 26 markets throughout the U.S.
We leased approximately 6.8 million square feet, which included 3.1 million square feet of new leases and 3.7 million square feet of renewals and future leases. Future leases represent new leases for units that are entered into while the units are occupied by the current customer.

See “Overview—General” above for a description of our operating portfolio and our total portfolio (which includes our operating and development and value-add portfolios) and for a description of the occupied and leased rates.
We have been in the acquisition phase of our life cycle and the results of our operations are primarily impacted by the timing of our acquisitions and the equity raised through the Offering. Accordingly, our operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 are not directly comparable, nor are our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 indicative of those expected in future periods. We believe that our revenues, operating expenses and interest expense will continue to increase in future periods as a result of continued growth in our portfolio and as a result of the incremental effect of anticipated future acquisitions of industrial real estate properties.

Results for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 Compared to the Same Periods in 2016
The following table summarizes our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016. We evaluate the performance of consolidated operating properties we own and manage using a same store analysis because the population of properties in this analysis is consistent from period to period, thereby eliminating the effects of any material changes in the composition of the aggregate portfolio on performance measures. We have defined the same store portfolio to include consolidated operating properties owned for the entirety of both the current and prior reporting periods for which the operations had been stabilized. “Other properties” includes buildings not meeting the same store criteria. The same store operating portfolio for the three month periods presented below included 181 buildings totaling approximately 28.0 million square feet owned as of July 1, 2016, which portfolio represented 75.4% of total rentable square feet, 81.0% of total revenues, and 81.4% of net operating income as of September 30, 2017. The same store operating portfolio for the nine month periods presented below included 127 buildings totaling approximately 16.1 million square feet owned as of January 1, 2016, which portfolio represented 43.6% of total rentable square feet, 52.5% of total revenues, and 52.2% of net operating income as of September 30, 2017.

Rental Revenues. Rental revenues are comprised of base rent, straight-line rent, amortization of above- and below-market lease assets and liabilities, and tenant reimbursement revenue. Total rental revenues increased by approximately $6.5 million and $42.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2016, primarily due to an increase in non-same store revenues, which was attributable to the significant growth in our portfolio over these periods. For the three months ended September 30, 2017, non-same store rental revenues reflect the addition of 46 buildings we had acquired since July 1, 2016, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, non-same store rental revenues reflect the addition of 110 buildings we had acquired since January 1, 2016. Same store rental revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 increased by

28


4.0% and 2.6%, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2016, primarily due to higher rental rates for new leases and renewals, as well as an increase in the average occupancy rate for the same store operating portfolio from 95.1% to 97.3% and from 96.2% to 96.6% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2016.
Rental Expenses. Rental expenses include certain property operating expenses typically reimbursed by our customers, such as real estate taxes, property insurance, property management fees, repair and maintenance, and certain non-recoverable expenses, such as consulting services and roof repairs. Total rental expenses increased by approximately $2.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to the same period in 2016, and $11.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to the same period in 2016, primarily due to an increase in non-same store rental expenses attributable to the significant growth in our portfolio over these periods. Same store rental expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 increased by 7.3% and 5.0%, respectively, primarily due to higher maintenance and repair expenses and higher real estate taxes as compared to the same periods in 2016.
Other Income and Expenses. Other income and expenses, in aggregate, decreased by $8.4 million, or 15.1%, for the three months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to the same period in 2016, and decreased by $8.5 million, or 5.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to the same period in 2016, primarily due to: 
a new FASB accounting standard that we adopted effective January 1, 2017, which resulted in all 2017 acquisition-related expenses of $6.4 million being capitalized instead of expensed as they were in the prior periods, resulting in a decrease in acquisition-related expenses of $6.8 million and $32.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2016;
the payment to the Advisor of previously deferred asset management fees and the reimbursement to the Advisor of expense support payments pursuant to the Expense Support Agreement in the amount of $3.9 million and $5.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively, as compared to no payments or reimbursements to the Advisor during the same periods in 2017; and
an impairment charge of $2.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 related to three wholly-owned properties that were evaluated for impairment due to a change in management’s estimate of the intended hold periods, as compared to no impairments during the same periods in 2017.
Partially offsetting the decreases above:
an increase in real estate-related depreciation and amortization expense, asset management fees, and general and administrative expenses totaling an aggregate amount of $3.1 million, or 9.2%, for the three months ended September 30, 2017 as a result of the growth in our portfolio since July 1, 2016, and $20.3 million, or 23.5%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as a result of the growth in our portfolio since January 1, 2016; and
an increase in interest expense of $1.6 million and $11.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, primarily due to: (i) a net increase in property level borrowings of $220.0 million as of September 30, 2017, as compared to September 30, 2016; and (ii) a higher aggregate weighted-average interest rate of 2.97% as of September 30, 2017, as compared to 2.79% as of September 30, 2016.
ADDITIONAL MEASURES OF PERFORMANCE
Net Loss and Net Operating Income (“NOI”)
We define NOI as GAAP rental revenues less GAAP rental expenses. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, GAAP net loss applicable to common stockholders was $5.5 million and $14.6 million, respectively, as compared to $18.1 million and $53.8 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, NOI increased 10.9% to $41.8 million and 33.4% to $122.5 million, respectively, as compared to $37.7 million and $91.8 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, same store NOI was $34.0 million and $63.9 million, respectively, as compared to $33.1 million and $62.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016. We consider NOI to be an appropriate supplemental performance measure and believe NOI provides useful information to our investors regarding our financial condition and results of operations because NOI reflects the operating performance of our properties and excludes certain items that are not considered to be controllable in connection with the management of the properties, such as real estate-related depreciation and amortization, acquisition-related expenses, impairment charges, general and administrative expenses and interest expense. However, NOI should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our financial performance since it excludes such expenses, which could materially impact our results of operations. Further, our NOI may not be comparable to that of other real estate companies as they may use different methodologies for calculating NOI. Therefore, we believe our net loss, as defined by GAAP, to be the most appropriate measure to evaluate our overall performance. Refer to “Results of Operations—

29


Results for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 Compared to the Same Periods in 2016” above for a reconciliation of our GAAP net loss to NOI for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016.
Funds from Operations (“FFO”), Company-Defined FFO and Modified Funds from Operations (“MFFO”)
We believe that FFO, Company-defined FFO, and MFFO, in addition to net loss and cash flows from operating activities as defined by GAAP, are useful supplemental performance measures that our management uses to evaluate our consolidated operating performance. However, these supplemental, non-GAAP measures should not be considered as an alternative to net loss or to cash flows from operating activities as an indication of our performance and are not intended to be used as a liquidity measure indicative of cash flow available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions to our stockholders. No single measure can provide users of financial information with sufficient information and only our disclosures read as a whole can be relied upon to adequately portray our financial position, liquidity, and results of operations. Fees deferred or waived by the Advisor and payments received from the Advisor pursuant to the Expense Support Agreement described in “Note 11 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” are included in determining our net loss, which is used to determine FFO, Company-defined FFO, and MFFO. If we had not received expense support from the Advisor in prior periods, our FFO, Company-defined FFO, and MFFO for such periods would have been lower. In addition, other REITs may define FFO and similar measures differently and choose to treat acquisition-related costs and potentially other accounting line items in a manner different from us due to specific differences in investment and operating strategy or for other reasons.
FFO. As defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), FFO is a non-GAAP measure that excludes certain items such as real estate-related depreciation and amortization, impairment of depreciable real estate, and gains or losses on sales of assets. We believe FFO is a meaningful supplemental measure of our operating performance that is useful to investors because depreciation and amortization in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. By excluding gains or losses on the sale of assets, we believe FFO provides a helpful additional measure of our consolidated operating performance on a comparative basis. We use FFO as an indication of our consolidated operating performance and as a guide to making decisions about future investments.
Company-defined FFO. Similar to FFO, Company-defined FFO is a non-GAAP measure that excludes real estate-related depreciation and amortization, impairment of depreciable real estate, and gains or losses on sales of assets, and also excludes acquisition-related costs (including acquisition fees paid to the Advisor) and organization costs, each of which are characterized as expenses in determining net loss under GAAP. Organization costs are excluded as they are paid in cash and relate to costs paid in conjunction with the organization of the Company. The purchase of operating properties has been a key strategic objective of our business plan focused on generating growth in operating income and cash flow in order to make distributions to investors. However, the corresponding acquisition-related costs are driven by transactional activity rather than factors specific to the on-going operating performance of our properties or investments. Due to a new accounting standard that we adopted as of January 1, 2017, acquisition-related costs are no longer expensed, but are capitalized as incurred, as the properties we acquire are considered assets rather than businesses under the new standard. As a result, acquisition-related costs for properties that meet the definition of an asset rather than a business will no longer be an adjustment, effective January 1, 2017. Company-defined FFO may not be a complete indicator of our operating performance, and may not be a useful measure of the long-term operating performance of our properties if we do not continue to operate our business plan as disclosed.
MFFO. As defined by the Investment Program Association (“IPA”), MFFO is a non-GAAP supplemental financial performance measure used to evaluate our operating performance. Similar to FFO, MFFO excludes items such as real estate-related depreciation and amortization, impairment of depreciable real estate, and gains or losses on sales of assets, but includes organization costs. Similar to Company-defined FFO, MFFO excludes acquisition-related costs. MFFO also excludes straight-line rent and amortization of above- and below-market leases. As described above, due to a new accounting standard that we adopted as of January 1, 2017, acquisition-related costs are no longer expensed, but are capitalized as incurred, as the properties we acquire are considered assets rather than businesses under the new standard. As a result, acquisition-related costs for properties that meet the definition of an asset rather than a business will no longer be an adjustment, effective January 1, 2017. In addition, there are certain other MFFO adjustments as defined by the IPA that are not applicable to us and are not included in our presentation of MFFO.
We have been in the acquisition phase of our life cycle. Management does not include historical acquisition-related costs in its evaluation of future operating performance, as such costs are not expected to be incurred once our acquisition phase is complete. In addition, management does not include organization costs as those costs are also not expected to be incurred because we have commenced operations. We use FFO, Company-defined FFO and MFFO to, among other things: (i) evaluate and compare the potential performance of the portfolio after the acquisition phase is complete, and (ii) evaluate potential performance to determine liquidity event strategies. We believe FFO, Company-defined FFO and MFFO facilitate a comparison to other REITs that have similar operating characteristics as us. We believe investors are best served if the

30


information that is made available to them allows them to align their analyses and evaluation with the same performance metrics used by management in planning and executing our business strategy. We believe that these performance metrics will assist investors in evaluating the potential performance of the portfolio after the completion of the acquisition phase. However, these supplemental, non-GAAP measures are not necessarily indicative of future performance and should not be considered as an alternative to net loss or to cash flows from operating activities and is not intended to be used as a liquidity measure indicative of cash flow available to fund our cash needs. Neither the SEC, NAREIT, nor any regulatory body has passed judgment on the acceptability of the adjustments used to calculate FFO, Company-defined FFO and MFFO. In the future, the SEC, NAREIT, or a regulatory body may decide to standardize the allowable adjustments across the non-traded REIT industry at which point we may adjust our calculation and characterization of FFO, Company-defined FFO and MFFO.

See “Capital Resources and Uses of Liquidity—Distributions” below for details concerning our distributions, which are paid in cash or reinvested in shares of our common stock by participants in our distribution reinvestment plan.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity
Our primary sources of capital for meeting our cash requirements include, and will continue to include, cash flows generated from operating activities, net proceeds from the sale of common stock pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan, funds provided by debt financings and refinancings, and net proceeds from asset sales. Our principal uses of funds are, and will continue to be, for the acquisition of properties and other investments, capital expenditures, operating expenses, payments under our debt obligations, and distributions to our stockholders. We terminated the primary portion of the Offering on June 30, 2017, and accordingly, net proceeds from the Offering will no longer be a primary source of capital for meeting our cash needs, as we have fully deployed the net proceeds from the sale of primary shares in the Offering. Refer to “Note 9 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for further detail. We expect to utilize the same sources of capital to meet our short-term and long-term liquidity and capital requirements.
Now that the net proceeds from the primary portion of the Offering have been fully deployed, we will no longer have priority over another non-traded, public REIT, Black Creek Industrial REIT IV Inc. (“BCI IV”), which is sponsored by an affiliate of our Sponsor, with regard to the acquisition of industrial properties. Rather, we and other investment vehicles sponsored by affiliates of the Advisor and the Sponsor with capital available to invest will have access to industrial property investment opportunities on a rotational basis that the Sponsor determines to be fair and reasonable to the applicable vehicles. The Advisor, subject to the oversight of our board of directors and, under certain circumstances, the investment committee or other committees established by our board of directors, will continue to evaluate potential acquisitions and will engage in negotiations with sellers and lenders on our behalf.

Cash provided by operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 increased by approximately $39.1 million as compared to the same period in 2016, primarily as a result of continued growth in our property operations. Cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 decreased by approximately $777.3 million as compared to the same period in 2016, primarily due to a net decrease in our acquisition activity in the amount of $834.2 million, partially offset by net proceeds from the sale of a portion of our interest in the BTC I Partnership in the first quarter of 2016 of $57.2 million, as well as by net proceeds from the disposition of real estate properties in the first quarter of 2017 of $15.4 million. Cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 decreased by approximately $801.2 million as compared to the same period in 2016, primarily due to a decrease in our net borrowing activity of $552.3 million, as well as a decrease in our equity raised of $228.3 million as a result of the termination of the primary portion of our offering.
Capital Resources and Uses of Liquidity
In addition to our cash and cash equivalents balances available, our capital resources and uses of liquidity are as follows:
Line of Credit and Term Loans. As of September 30, 2017, we had an aggregate of $1.0 billion of commitments under our credit agreements, including $500.0 million under our line of credit and $500.0 million under our two term loans. As of that date, we had: (i) approximately $236.0 million outstanding under our line of credit with a weighted average effective interest rate of 2.47%, which includes the effect of the interest rate swap agreements related to $150.0 million in borrowings under our line of credit; and (ii) $500.0 million outstanding under our term loans with a weighted average effective interest rate of 2.64%, which includes the effect of the interest rate swap agreements related to $350.0 million in borrowings under our term loans. The unused and available portions under our line of credit were $264.0 million and $209.2 million, respectively. Our $500.0 million

32


line of credit matures in January 2020, and may be extended pursuant to a one-year extension option, subject to certain conditions, including the payment of an extension fee. Our $350.0 million term loan matures in January 2021 and our $150.0 million term loan matures in May 2022. Our line of credit and term loan borrowings are available for general corporate purposes, including but not limited to the acquisition and operation of permitted investments. Refer to “Note 7 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional information regarding our line of credit and term loans.
Mortgage Notes. As of September 30, 2017, we had property-level borrowings of approximately $722.9 million outstanding with a weighted-average remaining term of 6.6 years. These borrowings are secured by mortgages or deeds of trust and related assignments and security interests in the collateralized properties, and had a weighted-average interest rate of 3.36%, which includes the effects of the interest rate swap agreement relating to our $97.0 million variable-rate mortgage note. The proceeds from our mortgage notes were used to partially finance certain of our acquisitions. Refer to “Note 7 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional information regarding the mortgage notes.
Debt Covenants. Our line of credit, term loan and mortgage note agreements contain various property level covenants, including customary affirmative and negative covenants. In addition, our line of credit and term loan agreements contain certain corporate level financial covenants, including leverage ratio, fixed charge coverage ratio, and tangible net worth thresholds. These covenants may limit our ability to incur additional debt, to make borrowings under our line of credit, or to pay distributions. We were in compliance with all debt covenants as of September 30, 2017.
Offering Proceeds. As of September 30, 2017, aggregate gross proceeds raised from the Offering, including proceeds raised through our distribution reinvestment plan, were $1.8 billion ($1.6 billion net of direct selling costs).
Distributions. We intend to continue to make distributions on a quarterly basis. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, 50.3% of our total gross distributions were paid from cash flows from operating activities, as determined on a GAAP basis, and 49.7% of our total gross distributions were funded from sources other than cash flows from operating activities, specifically with proceeds from shares issued pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan. Some or all of our future distributions may continue to be paid from sources other than cash flows from operating activities, such as cash flows from financing activities, which include borrowings, proceeds from the issuance of shares pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan, cash resulting from a waiver or deferral of fees or expense reimbursements otherwise payable to the Advisor or its affiliates, cash resulting from the Advisor or its affiliates paying certain of our expenses, net proceeds from the sales of assets, and our cash balances. We have not established a cap on the amount of our distributions that may be paid from any of these sources. The amount of any distributions will be determined by our board of directors, and will depend on, among other things, current and projected cash requirements, tax considerations and other factors deemed relevant by our board. For the fourth quarter of 2017, our board of directors authorized daily distributions to all common stockholders of record as of the close of business on each day of the fourth quarter of 2017 at a quarterly rate of $0.1425 per Class A share of common stock and $0.1425 per Class T share of common stock less the annual distribution fees that are payable monthly with respect to such Class T shares (calculated on a daily basis). Distributions for the fourth quarter of 2017 will be aggregated and paid in cash or reinvested in shares of our common stock for those electing to participate in our distribution reinvestment plan, on a date determined by us that is no later than January 15, 2018.
There can be no assurances that the current distribution rate or amount per share will be maintained. In the near-term, we expect that we may need to continue to utilize cash flows from financing activities, as determined on a GAAP basis, to pay distributions, which if insufficient could negatively impact our ability to pay such distributions.

For the periods presented, all distributions provided by financing activities were funded from debt financings.
(2)
Stockholders may elect to have their distributions reinvested in shares of our common stock through our distribution reinvestment plan.
(3)
Gross distributions are total distributions before the deduction of distribution fees relating to Class T shares issued in the primary portion of the Offering.
Refer to “Note 9 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for further detail on distributions.
Redemptions. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, we received eligible redemption requests related to approximately 1.4 million and 0.4 million shares of our common stock, respectively, all of which we redeemed using cash flows from financing activities, for an aggregate amount of approximately $13.6 million, or an average price of $9.60 per share, and approximately $3.4 million, or an average price of $9.62 per share, respectively. We have repurchased shares of our common stock above the estimated NAV per share most recently determined as of the date of such redemptions and, accordingly, these repurchases have been dilutive to our remaining stockholders. We are not obligated to redeem shares of our common stock under the share redemption program. We presently intend to limit the number of shares to be redeemed during any calendar quarter to the “Quarterly Redemption Cap” which will equal the lesser of: (i) one-quarter of five percent of the number of shares of common stock outstanding as of the date that is 12 months prior to the end of the current quarter; and (ii) the aggregate number of shares sold pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan in the immediately preceding quarter, less the number of shares redeemed in the most recently completed quarter in excess of such quarter’s applicable redemption cap due to qualifying death or disability requests of a stockholder or stockholders during such quarter, which amount may be less than the Aggregate Redemption Cap described below. However, to the extent that the aggregate proceeds received from the sale of shares pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan are not at a level sufficient to fund redemption requests, subject to the limitations as discussed in Part II, Item 2. “Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds—Share Redemption Program,” our board of directors retains the right, but is not obligated to, redeem additional shares if, in its sole discretion, it determines that it is in our best interest to do so, provided that we will not redeem during any consecutive 12-month period more than five percent of the number of shares of common stock outstanding at the beginning of such 12-month period (referred to herein as the “Aggregate Redemption Cap” and together with the Quarterly Redemption Cap, the “Redemption Caps”) unless permitted to do so by applicable regulatory authorities. In addition, our board of directors has reserved the right to apply the Quarterly Redemption Cap on a per class basis as described in Part II, Item 2. “Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds—Share Redemption Program.”
Although we presently intend to redeem shares pursuant to the above-referenced methodology, to the extent that the aggregate proceeds received from the sale of shares pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan in any quarter are not sufficient to fund redemption requests, our board of directors may, in its sole discretion, choose to use other sources of funds to redeem shares of our common stock, up to the Aggregate Redemption Cap. Such sources of funds could include cash on hand, cash available

34


from borrowings, cash from the sale of our shares pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan in other quarters, and cash from liquidations of securities investments, to the extent that such funds are not otherwise dedicated to a particular use, such as working capital, distributions to stockholders, debt repayment, purchases of real property, debt related or other investments. Our board of directors may, in its sole discretion, amend, suspend, or terminate the share redemption program at any time if it determines that the funds available to fund the share redemption program are needed for other business or operational purposes or that amendment, suspension or termination of the share redemption program is in the best interest of our stockholders. If our board of directors decides to materially amend, suspend or terminate the share redemption program, we will provide stockholders with no less than 30 days’ prior notice, which we will provide by filing a Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC.
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
A summary of future obligations as of December 31, 2016 was disclosed in our 2016 Form 10-K. Except as otherwise disclosed in “Note 7 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” relating to our debt obligations, there were no material changes outside the ordinary course of business.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
As of September 30, 2017, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material effect, on our financial condition, changes in our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the SEC. The preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires significant management judgments, assumptions, and estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and our disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. With different estimates or assumptions, materially different amounts could be reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. For a detailed description of our critical accounting estimates, see Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2016 Form 10-K. As of September 30, 2017, our critical accounting estimates have not changed from those described in our 2016 Form 10-K.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Risk
We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows, and optimize overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, we plan to borrow on a fixed interest rate basis for longer-term debt and utilize interest rate swap agreements on certain variable interest rate debt in order to limit the effects of changes in interest rates on our results of operations. As of September 30, 2017, our debt instruments consisted of borrowings under our line of credit, term loans, and mortgage notes.
Fixed Interest Rate Debt. As of September 30, 2017, our consolidated fixed interest rate debt consisted of $150.0 million of borrowings under our line of credit, $350.0 million of borrowings under one of our term loans, and $722.9 million under our mortgage notes, which, in the aggregate, represented approximately 83.8% of our total consolidated debt. The interest rates on certain of these borrowings are fixed through the use of interest rate swap agreements. Interest rate fluctuations will generally not affect our future earnings or cash flows on our fixed interest rate debt unless such instruments mature or are otherwise terminated. However, interest rate changes could affect the fair value of our fixed interest rate debt. As of September 30, 2017, the fair value and the carrying value of our consolidated fixed interest rate debt were both approximately $1.2 billion. The fair value estimate of our fixed interest rate debt was estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis utilizing rates we would expect to pay for debt of a similar type and remaining maturity if the loans were originated on September 30, 2017. As we expect to hold our fixed interest rate debt instruments to maturity, based on the underlying structure of the debt instrument, and the amounts due under such instruments are limited to the outstanding principal balance and any accrued and unpaid interest, we do not expect that market fluctuations in interest rates, and the resulting change in fair value of our fixed interest rate debt instruments, would have a significant impact on our operating cash flows.

35


Variable Interest Rate Debt. As of September 30, 2017, our consolidated variable interest rate debt consisted of $86.0 million of borrowings under our line of credit and our $150.0 million term loan, which represented approximately 16.2% of our total consolidated debt. Interest rate changes on our variable rate debt could impact our future earnings and cash flows, but would not significantly affect the fair value of such debt. As of September 30, 2017, we were exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on $236.0 million of consolidated borrowings. A hypothetical 10% change in the average interest rate on the outstanding balance of our variable interest rate debt as of September 30, 2017, would change our annual interest expense by approximately $0.3 million.
Derivative Instruments. As of September 30, 2017, we had 11 outstanding interest rate swaps that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, with a total notional amount of $597.0 million. See “Note 7 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for further detail on our interest rate swaps. We are exposed to credit risk of the counterparty to our interest rate swap agreements in the event of non-performance under the terms of the agreements. If we were not able to replace these swaps in the event of non-performance by the counterparty, we would be subject to variability of the interest rate on the amount outstanding under our debt that is fixed through the use of the swaps.

36


ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the direction of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2017. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2017, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the three months ended September 30, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

37


PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
 
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our 2016 Form 10-K, which could materially affect our business, financial condition, and/or future results. The risks described in our 2016 Form 10-K are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and/or operating results.
With the exception of the updated risk factor set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our 2016 Form 10-K.

RISKS RELATED TO INVESTMENT IN OUR COMMON STOCK
The current price for our common stock offered pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan is the most recently disclosed estimated NAV per share for such shares. The estimated NAV per share may not be an accurate reflection of the fair market value of our assets and liabilities and likely will not represent the amount of net proceeds that would result if we liquidated or dissolved or the amount you would receive upon the sale of your shares.
The current price for our common stock offered pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan is equal to the most recently disclosed estimated NAV per share. The estimated NAV per share may not be an accurate reflection of the fair value of our assets and liabilities in accordance with GAAP, may not reflect the price at which we would be able to sell all or substantially all of our assets or the outstanding shares of our common stock in an arm's length transaction, may not represent the value that our stockholders could realize upon a sale of the company or upon the liquidation of our assets and settlement of our liabilities, and may not be indicative of the price at which shares of our common stock would trade if they were listed on a national securities exchange. In addition, such value may not be the equivalent of the disclosure of a market price by an open-ended real estate fund. Any methodologies used to determine an estimated NAV per share of our common stock may be based upon assumptions, estimates and judgments that may not be accurate or complete, such that, if different property-specific and general real estate and capital market assumptions, estimates and judgments were used, it could result in an estimated NAV per share that is significantly different.

RISKS RELATED TO THE ADVISOR AND ITS AFFILIATES
We will compete with entities sponsored or advised by affiliates of the Sponsor, for whom affiliates of the Sponsor provide certain advisory or management services, for opportunities to acquire or sell investments, and for customers, which may have an adverse impact on our operations.
We will compete with entities sponsored or advised by affiliates of the Sponsor, whether existing or created in the future, as well as entities for whom affiliates of the Sponsor provide certain advisory or management services, for opportunities to acquire, finance or sell certain types of properties. We may also buy, finance or sell properties at the same time as these entities are buying, financing or selling properties. In this regard, there is a risk that we will purchase a property that provides lower returns to us than a property purchased by entities sponsored or advised by affiliates of the Sponsor and entities for whom affiliates of the Sponsor provide certain advisory or management services. Certain entities sponsored or advised by affiliates of the Sponsor own and/or manage properties in geographical areas in which we expect to own properties. Therefore, our properties may compete for customers with other properties owned and/or managed by these entities. The Advisor may face conflicts of interest when evaluating customer leasing opportunities for our properties and other properties owned and/or managed by these entities and these conflicts of interest may have a negative impact on our ability to attract and retain customers.
The Sponsor and the Advisor have implemented lease allocation guidelines to assist with the process of the allocation of leases when we and certain other entities to which affiliates of the Advisor are providing certain advisory services have potentially competing properties with respect to a particular customer. Pursuant to the lease allocation guidelines, if we have an opportunity to bid on a lease with a prospective customer and one or more of these other entities has a potentially competing property, then, under certain circumstances, we may not be permitted to bid on the opportunity and in other circumstances, we and the other entities will be permitted to participate in the bidding process. The lease allocation guidelines are overseen by a joint management committee consisting of our management committee and certain other management representatives associated with other entities to which affiliates of the Advisor are providing similar services.
  

38


Because affiliates of the Sponsor and the Advisor currently sponsor and in the future may advise other investment vehicles (each, an “Investment Vehicle”) with overlapping investment objectives, strategies and criteria, potential conflicts of interest may arise with respect to industrial real estate investment opportunities (“Industrial Investments”). In order to manage this potential conflict of interest, in allocating Industrial Investments among the Investment Vehicles, the Sponsor follows an allocation policy (the “Allocation Policy”) which currently provides that if the Sponsor or one of its affiliates is awarded and controls an Industrial Investment that is suitable for more than one Investment Vehicle, based upon various Allocation Factors (defined below), including without limitation availability of capital, portfolio objectives, diversification goals, target investment markets, return requirements, investment timing and the Investment Vehicle’s applicable approval discretion and timing, then the Industrial Investment will be allocated to Investment Vehicles on a rotational basis and will be allocated to the Investment Vehicle at the top of the rotation list (that is, the Investment Vehicle that has gone the longest without being allocated an Industrial Investment). If an Investment Vehicle on the list declines the Industrial Investment, it will be rotated to the bottom of the rotation list. Exceptions may be made to the Allocation Policy for (x) transactions necessary to accommodate an exchange pursuant to Section 1031 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), (y) characteristics of a particular Industrial Investment or Investment Vehicle, such as adjacency to an existing asset, legal, regulatory or tax concerns or benefits, portfolio balancing or other Allocation Factors listed below, which make the Industrial Investment more advantageous to one of the Investment Vehicles. In addition, the Sponsor may from time to time specify that it will not seek new allocations for more than one Investment Vehicle at a time until certain minimum allocation levels are reached.
The Sponsor may from time to time grant to certain Investment Vehicles certain exclusivity, rotation or other priority (each, a “Special Priority”) with respect to Industrial Investments. The only currently existing Special Priority has been granted to our second build-to-core fund (“BTC II”), pursuant to which BTC II will be presented with the following Industrial Investment (subject to the terms and conditions of the BTC II partnership agreement): 
two out of every three potential development investments; provided that BTC II will have the first option to pursue all potential development investments prior to March 31, 2018, and four out of every five potential development investments thereafter and prior to March 31, 2019;
one out of every three potential value-add investments; and
one out of every four potential core investments.
The Special Priority granted to BTC II will terminate on the earlier to occur of certain events described in the BTC II partnership agreement, such that it will terminate by or before May 2021. The Sponsor or its affiliates may grant additional Special Priorities in the future and from time to time.
“Allocation Factors” are those factors that the Sponsor maintains and updates from time to time based on review by the Sponsor’s Head of Real Estate. Current examples of Allocation Factors include: 
Overall investment objectives, strategy and criteria, including product type and style of investing (for example, core, core plus, value-add and opportunistic);
The general real property sector or debt investment allocation targets of each program and any targeted geographic concentration;
The cash requirements of each program;
The strategic proximity of the Industrial Investment to other assets;
The effect of the acquisition on diversification of investments, including by type of property, geographic area, customers, size and risk;
The policy of each program relating to leverage of investments;
The effect of the acquisition on loan maturity profile;
The effect on lease expiration profile;
Customer concentration;
The effect of the acquisition on ability to comply with any restrictions on investments and indebtedness contained in applicable governing documents, SEC filings, contracts or applicable law or regulation;
The effect of the acquisition on the applicable entity’s intention not to be subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act;
Legal considerations, such as Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”) and Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act (“FIRPTA”), that may be applicable to specific investment platforms;
The financial attributes of the Industrial Investment;
Availability of financing;
Cost of capital;

39


Ability to service any debt associated with the Industrial Investment;
Risk return profiles;
Targeted distribution rates;
Anticipated future pipeline of suitable investments;
Expected holding period of the Industrial Investment and the applicable entity’s remaining term;
Whether the applicable entity still is in its fundraising and acquisition stage, or has substantially invested the proceeds from its fundraising stage;
Whether the applicable entity was formed for the purpose of making a particular type of investment;
Affiliate and/or related party considerations;
The anticipated cash flow of the applicable entity and the asset;
Tax effects of the acquisition, including on REIT or partnership qualifications;
The size of the Industrial Investment; and
The amount of funds available to each program and the length of time such funds have been available for investment.
The Sponsor may modify its overall allocation policies from time to time. Any changes to the Sponsor’s allocation policies will be timely reported to our Conflicts Resolution Committee. The Advisor will be required to provide information to our board of directors on a quarterly basis to enable our board of directors, including the independent directors, to determine whether such policies are being fairly applied. 
On November 4, 2015, Industrial Income Trust Inc. (“IIT”) completed its merger with and into Western Logistics LLC and Western Logistics II LLC. Concurrently with the closing of the merger, IIT transferred 11 properties that were in the lease up stage or under development to the DC Industrial Liquidating Trust (the “Liquidating Trust”), the beneficial interests in which were distributed to then-current IIT stockholders. The Liquidating Trust intends to sell such excluded properties. An affiliate of the Advisor entered into a management services agreement with the Liquidating Trust to provide asset management, development and construction, and operating oversight services for each excluded property, to assist in the sale of the excluded properties and to provide administrative services to the Liquidating Trust and its subsidiaries. The management services agreement will continue in force throughout the duration of the existence of the Liquidating Trust and will terminate as of the date of termination of the Liquidating Trust. The affiliate of the Advisor will not provide advisory services with respect to acquisitions under the management services agreement, but because lease management services will be provided under the management services agreement, the Advisor may face a conflict of interest when evaluating customer leasing opportunities for our properties and properties owned by the Liquidating Trust, which could negatively impact our ability to attract and retain customers.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
Use of Proceeds
On July 24, 2013, our Registration Statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333-184126), pursuant to which we made our initial public offering of up to $2.0 billion in shares of common stock, was declared effective under the Securities Act, and the Offering commenced the same day. On June 30, 2017, we terminated the offering of primary shares pursuant to the Offering. We are continuing to offer shares pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan.

The sales commissions and dealer manager fees were payable to the Dealer Manager. A substantial portion of the commissions and fees were reallowed by the Dealer Manager to participating broker dealers as commissions and marketing fees and expenses.
(2)
This amount excludes the distribution fees paid to the Dealer Manager, all or a portion of which are reallowed by the Dealer Manager to participating broker dealers or broker dealers servicing accounts of investors who own Class T shares, referred to as servicing broker dealers. The distribution fees are not paid from and do not reduce offering proceeds, but rather they reduce the distributions payable to stockholders with respect to Class T shares.
From January 15, 2014, through September 30, 2017, we had acquired, either directly or through our joint ventures, 281 buildings comprised of approximately 46.4 million square feet for an aggregate total purchase price of approximately $3.4 billion, exclusive of transfer taxes, due diligence expenses, acquisition costs (including the acquisition fees paid to the Advisor and its affiliates) and other closing costs.
As of September 30, 2017, we had paid $27.1 million in acquisition-related costs to non-related parties. Refer to “Note 11 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for a description of the fees paid to the Advisor and its affiliates. We used $36,000 of net proceeds from primary shares sold in the Offering to fund distributions for the initial quarter for which we declared distributions and for the fourth quarter of 2013. The initial quarter commenced on September 6, 2013, which was the date that we met the minimum offering requirements in connection with the Offering, and ended on September 30, 2013.
As of September 30, 2017, all proceeds from the primary portion of the Offering had been deployed.
Share Redemption Program
Subject to certain restrictions and limitations, a stockholder may redeem shares of our common stock for cash at a price that may reflect a discount from the purchase price paid for the shares of common stock being redeemed. Shares of common stock must be held for a minimum of one year, subject to certain exceptions. We are not obligated to redeem shares of our common stock under the share redemption program. We presently intend to limit the number of shares to be redeemed during any consecutive 12-month period to no more than five percent of the number of shares of common stock outstanding at the beginning of such 12-month period. We also intend to limit redemptions in accordance with a quarterly cap.
After a stockholder has held shares of our common stock for a minimum of one year, our share redemption program may provide a limited opportunity for a stockholder to have its shares of common stock redeemed, subject to certain restrictions and limitations, at a price equal to or at a discount from the purchase price of the shares of our common stock being redeemed and the amount of the discount (the “Holding Period Discount”) will vary based upon the length of time that our stockholders have held their shares of our common stock subject to redemption, as described in the following table:

Since we are no longer engaged in a public offering of primary shares, the redemption price will continue to be calculated in accordance with the above table (subject to the limitations and exceptions described herein); provided, that, if the redemption price calculated in accordance with the above table would result in a price that is higher than the estimated NAV per share of our common stock most recently disclosed by us in a public filing with the SEC, then the redemption price will be equal to the estimated NAV per share most recently disclosed by us in a public filing with the SEC, which presently is $9.74 per share.
Our board of directors may, in its sole discretion, amend, suspend, or terminate the share redemption program at any time if it determines that the funds available to fund the share redemption program are needed for other business or operational purposes or that amendment, suspension or termination of the share redemption program is in the best interest of our stockholders. Any amendment, suspension or termination of the share redemption program will not affect the rights of holders of OP Units to cause us to redeem their OP Units for, at our sole discretion, shares of our common stock, cash, or a combination of both pursuant to the Operating Partnership Agreement. In addition, our board of directors, in its sole discretion, may determine at any time to modify the share redemption program to redeem shares at a price that is higher or lower than the price paid for the shares by the redeeming stockholder. Any such price modification may be arbitrarily determined by our board of directors, or may be determined on a different basis, including but not limited to a price equal to the then-current estimated NAV per share. If our board of directors decides to materially amend, suspend or terminate the share redemption program, we will provide stockholders with no less than 30 days’ prior written notice, which we will provide by filing a Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC. During a public offering, we will also include this information in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to the registration statement, as then required under the federal securities laws. Therefore, our stockholders may not have the opportunity to make a redemption request prior to any potential suspension, amendment or termination of the share redemption program.
As described below, our board of directors, in its sole discretion, may determine at any time to modify the share redemption program to redeem shares at a price that is higher or lower than the price paid for the shares by the redeeming stockholder. In the event that a stockholder seeks to redeem all of its shares of our common stock, shares of our common stock purchased pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan may be excluded from the foregoing one-year holding period requirement, in the discretion of our board of directors. If a stockholder has made more than one purchase of our common stock (other than through our distribution reinvestment plan), the one-year holding period will be calculated separately with respect to each such purchase. In addition, for purposes of the one-year holding period, holders of OP Units who exchange their OP Units for shares of our common stock shall be deemed to have owned their shares as of the date they were issued their OP Units. Neither the one-year holding period nor the Redemption Caps (as defined in below) will apply in the event of the death of a stockholder and such shares will be redeemed at a price equal to 100% of the price paid by the deceased stockholder for the shares without regard to the date of purchase of the shares to be redeemed; provided, however, that any such redemption request with respect to the death of a stockholder must be submitted to us within 18 months after the date of death, as further described in the share redemption plan. Our board of directors reserves the right in its sole discretion at any time and from time to time to (a) waive the one-year holding period and either of the Redemption Caps (defined in the share redemption plan) in the event of the disability (as such term is defined in Section 72(m)(7) of the Internal Revenue Code) of a stockholder, (b) reject any request for redemption for any reason, or (c) reduce the number of shares of our common stock allowed to be redeemed under the share redemption program. A stockholder’s request for redemption in reliance on any of the waivers that may be granted in the event of the disability of the stockholder must be submitted within 18 months of the initial determination of the stockholder’s disability, as further described in the share redemption plan. If our board of directors waives the one-year holding period in the event of the disability of a stockholder, such stockholder will have its shares redeemed at the discounted amount listed in the above table for a stockholder who has held its shares for one year. In all other cases in the event of the disability of a stockholder, such stockholder will have its shares redeemed as described in the above table. Furthermore, any shares redeemed in excess of the Quarterly Redemption Cap (as defined below) as a result of the death or disability of a stockholder will be included in calculating the following quarter’s redemption limitations. At any time we are engaged in an offering of shares of our common stock, the per share price for shares of our common stock redeemed under our redemption program will never be greater than the then-current offering price of our shares of our common stock sold in the primary offering. If we are engaged in a public offering and the redemption price calculated in accordance with the share redemption program would result in a price that is higher than the then-current public offering price of such class of common stock, then the redemption price will be reduced and will be equal to the then-current public offering price of such class of common stock.
We are not obligated to redeem shares of our common stock under the share redemption program. We presently intend to limit the number of shares to be redeemed during any calendar quarter to the “Quarterly Redemption Cap” which will equal the lesser of: (i) one-quarter of five percent of the number of shares of common stock outstanding as of the date that is 12 months prior to the end of the current quarter, and (ii) the aggregate number of shares sold pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan in the immediately preceding quarter, less the number of shares redeemed in the most recently completed quarter in excess of such quarter’s applicable redemption cap due to qualifying death or disability requests of a stockholder or stockholders during such quarter, which amount may be less than the Aggregate Redemption Cap described below. In addition, our board of

42


directors retains the right, but is not obligated to, redeem additional shares if, in its sole discretion, it determines that it is in our best interest to do so, provided that we will not redeem during any consecutive 12-month period more than five percent of the number of shares of common stock outstanding at the beginning of such 12-month period (referred to herein as the “Aggregate Redemption Cap” and together with the Quarterly Redemption Cap, the “Redemption Caps”) unless permitted to do so by applicable regulatory authorities. Although we presently intend to redeem shares pursuant to the above-referenced methodology, to the extent that the aggregate proceeds received from the sale of shares pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan in any quarter are not sufficient to fund redemption requests, our board of directors may, in its sole discretion, choose to use other sources of funds to redeem shares of our common stock, up to the Aggregate Redemption Cap. Such sources of funds could include cash on hand, cash available from borrowings, cash from the sale of our shares pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan in other quarters, and cash from liquidations of securities investments, to the extent that such funds are not otherwise dedicated to a particular use, such as working capital, distributions to stockholders, debt repayment, purchases of real property, debt related or other investments, or redemptions of OP Units. Our board of directors has no obligation to use other sources to redeem shares of our common stock under any circumstances. Our board of directors may, but is not obligated to, increase the Aggregate Redemption Cap but may only do so in reliance on an applicable no-action letter issued or other guidance provided by the SEC staff that would not object to such an increase. There can be no assurance that our board of directors will increase either of the Redemption Caps at any time, nor can there be assurance that our board of directors will be able to obtain, if necessary, a no-action letter from the SEC staff. In any event, the number of shares of our common stock that we may redeem will be limited by the funds available from purchases pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan, cash on hand, cash available from borrowings and cash from liquidations of securities or debt related investments as of the end of the applicable quarter.
Our board of directors reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to limit the number of shares to be redeemed for each class of shares by applying the Quarterly Redemption Cap on a per class basis; provided that any such change in the application of the Quarterly Redemption Cap from a general basis to a per class basis would not jeopardize our ability to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. In order for our board of directors to change the application of the Quarterly Redemption Cap from a general basis to a per class basis, we will notify stockholders through a prospectus supplement and/or a current or periodic report filed with the SEC, as well as in a press release or on our website, at least 10 days before the first business day of the quarter for which the new application will apply.
Based on the estimated NAV per share of our common stock determined by our board of directors on December 22, 2016, we have repurchased shares of our common stock at prices that are higher than the estimated NAV per share and, accordingly, these repurchases have been dilutive to our remaining stockholders. The above description of the Amended SRP is a summary of certain of the terms of the Amended SRP. Please see the full text of the Amended SRP, incorporated by reference as Exhibit 4.3 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for all terms and conditions of the share redemption program in effect during the period covered by this report.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, we received eligible redemption requests related to approximately 1.4 million and 0.4 million shares of our common stock, respectively, all of which we redeemed using cash flows from financing activities, for an aggregate amount of approximately $13.6 million, or an average price of $9.60 per share, and approximately $3.4 million or an average price of $9.62 per share, respectively.
