Public Storage (NYSE:PSA) announced today operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

Operating Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2019

For the three months ended June 30, 2019, net income allocable to our common shareholders was $306.4 million or $1.76 per diluted common share, compared to $348.3 million or $2.00 per diluted common share in 2018 representing a decrease of $41.9 million or $0.24 per diluted common share. The decrease is due primarily to (i) a $27.2 million decrease due to the impact of foreign currency exchange gains and losses associated with our euro denominated debt, (ii) our $24.0 million equity share of a gain on sale of assets recorded by PS Business Parks in the three months ended June 30, 2018, and (iii) an $8.9 million allocation to our preferred shareholders associated with our preferred share redemption activities in the three months ended June 30, 2019. These decreases were offset partially by (iv) a $7.9 million increase in self-storage net operating income (described below), and (v) a reduction in general and administrative expense attributable to $7.8 million in incremental share-based compensation expense in the three months ended June 30, 2018 for the planned retirement of our former CEO and CFO.

The $7.9 million increase in self-storage net operating income is a result of a $3.4 million increase in our Same Store Facilities (as defined below) and a $4.5 million increase in our Non Same Store Facilities (as defined below). Revenues for the Same Store Facilities increased 1.9% or $11.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to 2018, due primarily to higher realized annual rent per occupied square foot. Cost of operations for the Same Store Facilities increased by 5.1% or $8.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to 2018, due primarily to increased property taxes and higher marketing expenses. The increase in net operating income of $4.5 million for the Non Same Store Facilities is due primarily to the impact of facilities acquired in 2018 and 2019 and the fill-up of recently developed and expanded facilities.

Operating Results for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2019

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, net income allocable to our common shareholders was $608.2 million or $3.49 per diluted common share, compared to $636.1 million or $3.65 per diluted common share in 2018 representing a decrease of $27.9 million or $0.16 per diluted common share. The decrease is due primarily to (i) our $34.9 million equity share of gains recorded by PS Business Parks in the six months ended June 30, 2018, (ii) a $17.4 million allocation to our preferred shareholders associated with our preferred share redemption activities in the six months ended June 30, 2019 and (iii) a $7.6 million decrease due to the impact of foreign currency exchange gains associated with our euro denominated debt. These decreases were offset partially by (iv) a $15.3 million increase in self-storage net operating income (described below) and (v) a reduction in general and administrative expense attributable to $15.6 million in incremental share-based compensation expense in the six months ended June 30, 2018 for the planned retirement of our former CEO and CFO.

The $15.3 million increase in self-storage net operating income is a result of a $5.7 million increase in our Same Store Facilities and a $9.6 million increase in our Non Same Store Facilities. Revenues for the Same Store Facilities increased 1.7% or $20.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to 2018, due primarily to higher realized annual rent per occupied square foot. Cost of operations for the Same Store Facilities increased by 4.5% or $14.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to 2018, due primarily to increased property taxes and higher marketing expenses. The increase in net operating income of $9.6 million for the Non Same Store Facilities is due primarily to the impact of facilities acquired in 2018 and 2019 and the fill-up of recently developed and expanded facilities.

Funds from Operations

For the three months ended June 30, 2019, funds from operations (“FFO”) was $2.57 per diluted common share, as compared to $2.65 in the same period in 2018, representing a decrease of 3.0%. FFO is a non-GAAP measure defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts and generally represents net income before depreciation and amortization expense, gains and losses and impairment charges with respect to real estate assets. A reconciliation of GAAP diluted net income per share to FFO per share, and additional descriptive information regarding this non-GAAP measure, is attached.

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, FFO was $5.09 per diluted common share, as compared to $5.02 in the same period in 2018, representing an increase of 1.4%.

We also present “Core FFO per share,” a non-GAAP measure that represents FFO per share excluding the impact of (i) foreign currency exchange gains and losses, (ii) EITF D-42 charges related to the redemption of preferred securities, (iii) accelerations of accruals or reductions in accruals due to the departure of senior executives and (iv) certain other non-cash and/or nonrecurring income or expense items. We review Core FFO per share to evaluate our ongoing operating performance, and we believe it is used by investors and REIT analysts in a similar manner. However, Core FFO per share is not a substitute for net income per share. Because other REITs may not compute Core FFO per share in the same manner as we do, may not use the same terminology or may not present such a measure, Core FFO per share may not be comparable among REITs.

Property Operations – Same Store Facilities

The Same Store Facilities represent the 2,165 facilities that have been owned and operated on a stabilized level of occupancy, revenues and cost of operations since January 1, 2017. Accordingly, our Same Store Facilities exclude (i) facilities acquired after December 31, 2016, (ii) newly developed or expanded facilities, (iii) facilities where expansion is under construction or that we expect to commence by December 31, 2019, (iv) facilities whose operating trends are significantly affected by factors such as casualty events, and (v) facilities which were otherwise not stabilized at December 31, 2016 (such as recently developed facilities acquired from third parties before December 31, 2016). The composition of our Same Store Facilities allows us to more effectively evaluate the ongoing performance of our self-storage portfolio in 2017, 2018, and 2019 and exclude the impact of fill-up of unstabilized facilities, which can significantly affect operating trends. We believe the Same Store information is used by investors and REIT analysts in a similar manner. The following table summarizes the historical operating results of these 2,165 facilities (139.8 million net rentable square feet) that represent approximately 84% of the aggregate net rentable square feet of our U.S. consolidated self-storage portfolio at June 30, 2019.

Revenues and cost of operations do not include ancillary revenues and expenses generated at the facilities with respect to tenant reinsurance and retail sales.

(b)

See attached reconciliation of self-storage NOI to net income.

(c)

Realized annual rent per occupied square foot is computed by dividing annualized rental income, before late charges and administrative fees, by the weighted average occupied square feet for the period. Realized annual rent per available square foot (“REVPAF”) is computed by dividing annualized rental income, before late charges and administrative fees, by the total available rentable square feet for the period. These measures exclude late charges and administrative fees in order to provide a better measure of our ongoing level of revenue. Late charges are dependent upon the level of delinquency, and administrative fees are dependent upon the level of move-ins. In addition, the rates charged for late charges and administrative fees can vary independently from rental rates. These measures take into consideration promotional discounts, which reduce rental income.

(d)

Annual contract rent represents the agreed upon monthly rate that is paid by our tenants in place at the time of measurement. Contract rates are initially set in the lease agreement upon move-in and we adjust them from time to time with notice. Contract rent excludes other fees that are charged on a per-item basis, such as late charges and administrative fees, does not reflect the impact of promotional discounts, and does not reflect the impact of rents that are written off as uncollectible.

Property Operations – Non Same Store Facilities

In addition to the 2,165 same-store facilities, we have 291 facilities that were not stabilized with respect to occupancies, revenues or cost of operations since January 1, 2017 or that we did not own as of January 1, 2017, including 81 facilities that were acquired from third parties, 76 newly developed facilities, 62 facilities that have been expanded or are targeted for expansion, and 72 facilities that are unstabilized due to the impact of casualties and other factors (collectively, the “Non Same Store Facilities”). Operating data, metrics, and further commentary with respect to these facilities, including detail by vintage, is included in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” under “Self-Storage Operations” in our June 30, 2019 Form 10-Q.

Investing and Capital Activities

During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we acquired 10 self-storage facilities (four in Florida, two in Virginia and one each in Arizona, Colorado, Michigan and Texas) with 0.7 million net rentable square feet for $116.7 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we acquired 22 self-storage facilities (eleven in Virginia, five in Florida, and one each in Arizona, Colorado, Georgia, Kentucky, Michigan and Texas) with 1.4 million net rentable square feet for $198.0 million. Subsequent to June 30, 2019, we acquired or were under contract to acquire ten self-storage facilities (two each in Georgia and Texas and one each in Florida, Indiana, Minnesota, North Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia) with 0.8 million net rentable square feet for $86.5 million.

During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we opened two newly developed facilities and various expansion projects (1.1 million net rentable square feet – 0.3 million in North Carolina, 0.2 million each in Georgia, Tennessee and Texas and 0.1 million each in Colorado and Michigan) costing $89.7 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we opened six newly developed facilities and various expansion projects (2.7 million net rentable square feet – 1.5 million in Texas, 0.3 million in North Carolina, 0.2 million each in Colorado, Georgia and Tennessee and 0.1 million each in California, Florida and Michigan) costing $223.2 million. At June 30, 2019, we had various facilities in development (1.1 million net rentable square feet) estimated to cost $189 million and various expansion projects (2.7 million net rentable square feet) estimated to cost $332 million. Our aggregate 3.8 million net rentable square foot pipeline of development and expansion facilities includes 1.2 million in Florida, 0.7 million in Minnesota, 0.6 million in California, 0.4 million in Washington, 0.2 million each in Colorado, Missouri, Texas and Virginia and 0.1 million in New York. The remaining $329 million of development costs for these projects is expected to be incurred primarily in the next 18 months.

On May 23, 2019, we called our 6.00% Series Z Preferred Shares for redemption. The shares were redeemed at liquidation value on June 27, 2019 for $287.5 million.

On April 12, 2019, we completed a public offering of $500 million in aggregate principal amount of senior notes bearing interest at an annual rate of 3.385% maturing on May 1, 2029.

On April 19, 2019, we amended our $500 million revolving line of credit. This amendment (i) extends the maturity date from March 31, 2020 to April 19, 2024, (ii) decreases the current effective borrowing spread over LIBOR from 0.850% to 0.70%, and (iii) decreases the current effective facility fee from 0.080% to 0.070%. All other terms remain substantially the same.

Distributions Declared

On July 24, 2019, our Board of Trustees declared a regular common quarterly dividend of $2.00 per common share. The Board also declared dividends with respect to our various series of preferred shares. All the dividends are payable on September 27, 2019 to shareholders of record as of September 12, 2019.

Second Quarter Conference Call

  (a)

FFO and FFO per share are non-GAAP measures defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts and, along with the non-GAAP measure FAD, are considered helpful measures of REIT performance by REITs and many REIT analysts. FFO represents GAAP net income before depreciation and amortization, real estate gains or losses and impairment charges, which are excluded because they are based upon historical costs and assume that building values diminish ratably over time, while we believe that real estate values fluctuate due to market conditions. FAD represents FFO adjusted to exclude certain non-cash charges and to deduct capital expenditures. We utilize FAD in evaluating our ongoing cash flow available for investment, debt repayment and common distributions. We believe investors and analysts utilize FAD in a similar manner. FFO and FFO per share are not a substitute for net income or earnings per share. FFO and FAD are not substitutes for GAAP net cash flow in evaluating our liquidity or ability to pay dividends, because they exclude investing and financing activities presented on our statements of cash flows. In addition, other REITs may compute these measures differently, so comparisons among REITs may not be helpful.

Net operating income or “NOI” is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact of depreciation and amortization expense, which is based upon historical costs and assumes that building values diminish ratably over time, while we believe that real estate values fluctuate due to market conditions. We utilize NOI in determining current property values, evaluating property performance, and in evaluating operating trends. We believe that investors and analysts utilize NOI in a similar manner. NOI is not a substitute for net income, operating cash flow, or other related GAAP financial measures, in evaluating our operating results. This table reconciles from NOI for our self-storage facilities to the net income presented on our income statement.
