Bluerock Residential Growth REIT, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated as a Maryland corporation on July 25, 2008. The Company’s objective is to maximize long-term stockholder value by acquiring and developing well-located institutional-quality apartment properties in demographically attractiveknowledge economy growth markets across the United States. The Company seeks to maximize returns through investments where it believes it can drive substantial growth in its core funds from operations and net asset value primarily through one or more of its Core-Plus, Value-Add Opportunistic and Invest-to-Own investment strategies.

Of the property interests held through preferred equity and mezzanine loan investments, five are under development, properties).five are in lease-up and six properties are stabilized. The Company’s thirty-fiveforty-seven properties contain an aggregate of 10,76114,280 units, comprised of 8,16610,790 consolidated operating units and 2,5953,490 units under development.through preferred equity and mezzanine loan investments. As of September 30, 2017, these properties, exclusive of development2019, the Company’s consolidated operating properties were approximately 94%93.8% occupied.
The Company has elected to be treated, and currently qualifies, as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”), for federal income tax purposes. As a REIT, the Company generally is not subject to corporate-level income taxes. To maintain its REIT status, the Company is required, among other requirements, to distribute annually at least 90% of its “REIT taxable income,” as defined by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), to the Company’s stockholders. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it would be subject to federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates.
Note 2 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The Company operates as an umbrella partnership REIT in which Bluerock Residential Holdings, L.P. (its “Operating Partnership”), or the Operating Partnership’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, owns substantially all of the property interests acquired and investments made on the Company’s behalf. As of September 30, 2017,2019, limited partners other than the Company owned approximately 10.29%28.26% of the common units of the Operating Partnership (1.01%(20.39% is held by holders of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”) and 9.28%7.87% is held by holders of the Operating Partnership’s long-term incentive plan units (“LTIP Units”)).
Bluerock Real Estate, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company, is referred to as Bluerock (“Bluerock”), and the Company’s external manager, BRG Manager, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, is referred to as its Manager (“Manager”). Both Bluerock and the Manager are related parties with respect to the Company, butincluding 4.62% which are not within the Company’s control and are not consolidated in the Company’s financial statements.vested at September 30, 2019).
Because the Company is the sole general partner of itsthe Operating Partnership and has unilateral control over its management and major operating decisions (even if additional limited partners are admitted to the Operating Partnership), the accounts of the Operating Partnership are consolidated in its consolidated financial statements.
The Company also consolidates entities in which it controls more than 50% of the voting equity and in which control does not rest with other investors. Investments in real estate joint ventures overin which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence, but for which it does not have financial or operating control, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. These entities are reflected on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as “Preferred equity investments and investments in unconsolidated real estate joint ventures.” All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. The Company will consider future joint venturesinvestments for consolidation in accordance with the provisions required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810: Consolidation.
Certain amountsIn accordance with adoption of the lease accounting update issued in prior periods, relatedJuly 2018, the Company reflects all income earned pursuant to tenant reimbursements for utility expenses amounting to $1.0 millionleases in a single line item, “Rental and $2.7 million for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2016, have been reclassified to other property revenues from property operating expenses,revenues”, in the 2019 consolidated statements of operations. SeeNew Accounting Pronouncements below. To facilitate comparability, the Company has reclassified lease and non-lease income for prior periods to conform to the current period presentation which includes tenant reimbursements for utility expenses amounting to $1.6 million and $4.6 million for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017. In addition, property management fees have been reclassified from property operating expenses.presentation.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Preferred Equity Investments and Investments in Unconsolidated Real Estate Joint Ventures
The Company first analyzes its investments in joint venturesan investment to determine if the joint ventureit is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) in accordance with Topic ASC 810 and, if so, whether the Company is the primary beneficiary requiring consolidation. A VIE is an entity that has (i) insufficient equity to permit it to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or (ii) equity holders that lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. VIEs are consolidated by the primary beneficiary, which is the entity that has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the entity that potentially could be significant to the entity. Variable interests in a VIE are contractual, ownership, or other financial interests in a VIE that change in value with changes in the fair value of the VIE’s net assets. The Company continuously re-assesses at each level of the joint ventureinvestment whether the entity is (i) a VIE, and (ii) if the Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. If it was determined that an entity in which the Company holds a joint venturean interest qualified as a VIE and the Company was the primary beneficiary, the entity would be consolidated.
If, after consideration of the VIE accounting literature, the Company has determined that an entity is not a VIE, the Company assesses the need for consolidation under all other provisions of ASC 810. These provisions provide for consolidation of majority-owned entities through a majority voting interest held by the Company providing control, or through determination of control by virtue of the Company being the general partner in a limited partnership or the controlling member of a limited liability company.control.
In assessing whether the Company is in control of and requiring consolidation of the limited liability company and partnership venture structures, the Company evaluates the respective rights and privileges afforded each member or partner (collectively referred to as “member”). The Company’s member would not be deemed to control the entity if any of the other members have either (i) substantive kickout rights providing the ability to dissolve (liquidate) the entity or otherwise remove the managing member or general partner without cause or (ii) has substantive participating rights in the entity. Substantive participating rights (whether granted by contract or law) provide for the ability to effectively participate in significant decisions of the entity that would be expected to be made in the ordinary course of business.
If it has been determined that the Company does not have control but does have the ability to exercise significant influence over the entity, the Company accounts for these unconsolidated investments under the equity method of accounting. The equity method of accounting requires these investments to be initially recorded at cost and subsequently increased (decreased) for the Company’s share of net income (loss), including eliminations for the Company’s share of intercompany transactions, and increased (decreased) for contributions (distributions). The Company’s proportionate share of the results of operations of these investments is reflected in the Company’s earnings or losses.
Fair Value Measurements
For financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis, fair value is the price the Company would expect to receive to sell an asset, or pay to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction with a market participant at the measurement date under current market conditions. In the absence of such data, fair value is estimated using internal information consistent with what market participants would use in a hypothetical transaction.
In determining fair value, observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions; preference is given to observable inputs. In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Unites States of America (“GAAP”) and as defined in ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement”, these two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:
· | Level 1: | Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets | |
· | Level 2: | Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable | |
· | Level 3: | Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable |
If the inputs used to measure the fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the fair value is determined based upon the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Whenever possible, the Company uses quoted market prices to determine fair value. In the absence of quoted market prices, the Company uses independent sources and data to determine fair value.
Financial Instrument Fair Value Disclosures
As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, due to and due from affiliates, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and distributions payable approximate their fair value based on their highly-liquid nature and/or short-term maturities. The carrying values of notes receivable from related parties approximate fair value because stated interest rate terms are consistent with interest rate terms on new deals with similar leverage and risk profiles. The fair values of notes receivable are classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy due to the significant unobservable inputs that are utilized in their respective valuations.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The estimated fair values of derivative financial instruments are valued using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and volatility. The fair value of interest rate caps is determined using the market-standard methodology of discounting the future expected cash receipts which would occur if floating interest rates rise above the strike rate of the caps. The floating interest rates used in the calculation of projected receipts on the cap are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves and volatilities. The inputs used in the valuation of interest rate caps fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Interim Financial Information
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”)GAAP for interim financial reporting, and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10-1 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the financial statements for interim reporting do not include all of the information and notes or disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for interim periods should not be considered indicative of the operating results for a full year.
The balance sheet at December 31, 20162018 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. For further information, refer toIt is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 20162018 contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 22, 2017.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Other than the adoption of accounting pronouncements as described below, there have been no significant changes to the Company’s accounting policies since it filed its audited consolidated financial statements in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.27, 2019.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Other than the adoption of new accounting pronouncements as described below, there have been no significant changes to the Company’s accounting policies since it filed its audited consolidated financial statements in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, "Business Combinations; Clarifying the Definition of a Business" (“ASU 2017-01”). ASU 2017-01 modifies the requirements to meet the definition of a business underAccounting Standards Codification ("ASC")Topic 805, "Business Combinations." The amendments provide a screen to determine when a set of identifiable assets and liabilities is not a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. The impact is expected to result in fewer transactions being accounted for as business combinations. The Company believes that this amendment will result in most of its real estate acquisitions being accounted for as asset acquisitions rather than business combinations. ASU 2017-01 is effective for the Company for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017 with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2017. The impact to the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes as a result of the adoption of this standard is primarily related to the difference in the accounting of acquisition costs. When accounting for these costs as a part of an asset acquisition, the Company is permitted to capitalize the costs. Upon the adoption of ASU 2017-01 the Company evaluates each acquisition of real estate or in-substance real estate to determine if the integrated set of assets and activities acquired meet the definition of a business and need to be accounted as a business combination. All acquisitions of real estate by the Company during 2017 to date do not meet the new definition of a business.
In NovemberJune 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, "Statement of Cash Flows; Restricted Cash" (“ASU 2016-18”). This update requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The Company will adjust the consolidated statement of cash flows as required in conjunction with the adoption of ASU 2016-08 in 2018. ASU 2016-18 is effective for the Company for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017 with early adoption permitted.
In August 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments” (“ASU 2016-15”). The ASU provides guidance on the treatment of cash receipts and cash payments for certain types of cash transactions, to eliminate diversity in practice in the presentation of the cash flow statement. For public business entities, the amendments in ASU 2016-15 are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier application was permitted. The Company will adjust the consolidated statement of cash flows as required in conjunction with the adoption of ASU 2016-15 in 2018.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-07, “Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting” (“ASU 2016-07”), which eliminates the requirement to retroactively adjust an investment, results of operations, and retained earnings when the investment qualifies for the use of the equity method as a result of an increase in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence. The new standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. ASU 2016-07 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements when adopted.
In June 2016, the FASB updated ASC Topic 326 "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses" with 2016-13 “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-03”2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 enhanceswill require more timely recognition of credit losses associated with financial assets. While current GAAP includes multiple credit impairment objectives for instruments, the methodologyprevious objectives generally delayed recognition of measuringthe full amount of credit losses until the loss was probable of occurring. The amendments in ASU 2016-13, whose scope is asset-based and not restricted to financial institutions, eliminate the probable initial recognition threshold in current GAAP and, instead, reflect an entity’s current estimate of all expected credit losses to includelosses. The amendments in ASU 2016-13 broaden the information that the Company must consider in developing its expected credit loss estimate for assets measured either collectively or individually. The use of forward-lookingforecasted information to better informincorporates more timely information in the estimate of expected credit loss estimates.that will be more useful to users of the financial statements. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19 “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses” (“ASU 2018-19”). ASU 2018-19 clarifies that operating lease receivables are excluded from the scope of ASU 2016-13 and instead, impairment of operating lease receivables is to be accounted for under ASC 842. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual periods (includingfiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2019. Thefiscal years. As of September 30, 2019, the Company is currently evaluating the guidance and has not determined the impact this standard may haveimpacts of ASU 2016-13, with a focus on the Company’sinvestments in mezzanine loans, on its consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”). Under ASU 2016-02, an entity will be required to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on its balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 offers specific accounting guidance for a lessee, a lessor and sale and leaseback transactions. Lessees and lessors are required to disclose qualitative and quantitative information about leasing arrangements to enable a user of the financial statements to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. For public companies, ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period, and requires a modified retrospective adoption, with early adoption permitted. The Company expects that, because of the ASU 2016-02’s emphasis on lessee accounting,adopted ASU 2016-02 willas of January 1, 2019 and elected the package of practical expedients provided by the standard which includes: (i) an entity need not reassess whether any expired or existing contract is a lease or contains a lease, (ii) an entity need not reassess the lease classification of any expired or existing leases, and (iii) and entity need not reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 did not have a material impact onto the Company’s accounting for leases. Consistent with present standards, the Company will continue to account for lease revenue on a straight-line basis. Also, consistent with the Company’s current practice, under ASU 2016-02 only initial direct costs that are incremental to the lessor will be capitalized.

Revenue is generally recognized net of allowances. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers-Deferral of the Effective Date which defers the effective date of the new revenue recognition standard until the first quarter of 2018. Therefore, ASU 2014-09 will become effective for the Company innon-lease component and the first quarter ofrelated lease component are the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018.

The ASU allows for either full retrospective or modified retrospective adoption.combined single lease component would be classified as an operating lease. The Company has selectedadopted the modified retrospective approach. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, which adds guidance on identifying performance obligations within a contract. The majority of the Company’s revenue is derived from rental income, which is scoped out from this standard and will be accounted for under ASU 2016-02, Leases, discussed above. The Company’s other revenue streams, which are being evaluated under this ASU, include but are not limited to other property revenues and interest income from related parties determined not to be within the scope of ASU 2016-02, and gains and losses from real estate dispositions. The Company will continue to assess the impact of the new standard and will adopt itpractical expedient as of January 1, 2018, however,2019 to account for lease and non-lease components as a single component in lease contracts where the Company does expect additional disclosures that are required fromis the adoption of this standard.lessor.

Note 11 – Derivative Financial Instruments
Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives
The Company is exposed to certain risk arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its assets and liabilities and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash payments principally related to the Company’s borrowings.
The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivative financial instruments are to add stability to interest expense and to manage the Company’s exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish these objectives, the Company primarily uses interest rate caps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate caps involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty if interest rates rise above the strike rate on the contract in exchange for an up-front premium.
The Company has not designated any of the interest rate derivatives as hedges. Although these derivative financial instruments were not designated or did not qualify for hedge accounting, the Company believes the derivative financial instruments are effective economic hedges against increases in interest rates. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
As of September 30, 2019, the Company had interest rate caps which effectively limit the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk by providing a ceiling on the underlying floating interest rate for $182.1 million of the Company’s floating rate mortgage debt. The Company also has an interest rate cap of $50.0 million covering its credit facilities which currently have no borrowings outstanding as of September 30, 2019.

The Company renewed the Administrative Services Agreement for a one-year term in 2018, and on August 2, 2019, the Company delivered written notice to BRE of the Company’s intention to renew the Administrative Services Agreement for an additional one-year term, to expire on October 31, 2020. The Administrative Services Agreement will automatically terminate (i) upon termination by the Company of all Services, or (ii) in the event of non-renewal by the Company. Any Company party will also be able to terminate the Administrative Services Agreement with respect to any individual Service upon written notice to the applicable BRE entity, in which case the specified Service will discontinue as of the date stated in such notice, which date must be at least ninety (90) days from the date of such notice. Further, either BRE entity may terminate the Administrative Services Agreement at any time upon the occurrence of a “Change of Control Event” (as defined therein) upon at least one hundred eighty (180) days prior written notice to the Company.
Pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement, BRE is responsible for (1) the selection, purchasepayment of all employee benefits and sale ofany other direct and indirect compensation for the Company’s investment portfolio, (2) the Company’s financing activities, and (3) providing the Company with advisory and management services.

The Company pays the Manager a base management fee in an amount equal to the sum of: (A) 0.25%Recorded as part of the Company’s stockholders’ existinggeneral and contributed equity prior to the IPO and in connection with our contribution transactions, per annum, calculated quarterly based on the Company’s stockholders’ existing and contributed equity for the most recently completed calendar quarter and payable in quarterly installments in arrears, and (B) 1.5%administrative expenses, operating expense reimbursements of the equity per annum of the Company’s stockholders who purchase shares of the Company’s stock, calculated quarterly based on their equity for the most recently completed calendar quarter and payable in quarterly installments in arrears. The base management fee is payable independent of the performance of the Company’s investments. The Company amended the Management Agreement to provide that the base management fee can be payable in cash or LTIP Units, at the election of the Board. The number of LTIP Units issued for the base management fee or incentive fee will be based on the fees earned divided by the 5-day trailing average Class A common stock price prior to issuance. Base management fees of $7.8$0.8 million and $4.3$0.5 million were expensed during the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

The actual number of LTIP Units to be issued in payment of the base management fees for the three months ended September 30, 2017 is subject to change based on the average closing share price of the Company’s Class A common stock on the five business days prior to the date of issuance.
The Company also pays the Manager an incentive fee with respect to each calendar quarter in arrears. The incentive fee is equal to the difference between (1) the product of (x) 20% and (y) the difference between (i) the Company’s adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”), for the previous 12-month period, and (ii) the product of (A) the weighted average of the issue price of equity securities issued in the IPO and in future offerings and transactions, multiplied by the weighted average number of all shares of the Company’s Class A common stock outstanding on a fully-diluted basis (including any restricted stock units, any restricted shares of Class A common stock, LTIP Units, and other shares of common stock underlying awards granted under the Incentive Plans and OP Units) in the previous 12-month period, exclusive of equity securities issued prior to the IPO or in the contribution transactions, and (B) 8%, and (2) the sum of any incentive fee paid to the Manager with respect to the first three calendar quarters of such previous 12-month period; provided, however, that no incentive fee is payable with respect to any calendar quarter unless AFFO is greater than zero for the four most recently completed calendar quarters. One half of each quarterly installment of the incentive fee will be payable in LTIP Units, calculated pursuant to the formula above. The remainder of the incentive fee will be payable in cash or in LTIP Units, at the election of the Board, in each case calculated pursuant to the formula above. Incentive fees of $4.0 million and $0.2 million were expensed during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

The expense recognized during 2017 and 2016 was based on the Class A common stock closing price at the vesting date or the end of the period, as applicable.
The Company is also required to reimburse the Manager for certain expenses and pay all operating expenses, except those specifically required to be borne by the Manager under the Management Agreement. Reimbursements of $0.4 million and $0.2 million, and $1.4 million and $0.5 million were expensed during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and of which $0.3 million and $1.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 are recorded as part of general and administrative expenses. In addition, the Manager was reimbursed for offering costs in conjunction with the January 2017 Common Stock Offering of $0.03 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

The Company must provide 180 days’ prior notice of any such termination. Unless terminated for cause, as further described in the Management Agreement, the Manager will be paid a termination fee equal to three times the sum of the base management fee and incentive fee earned, in each case, by the Manager during the 12-month period immediately preceding such termination, calculated as of the end of the most recently completed fiscal quarter before the date of termination.

Note 1113 – Stockholders’ Equity and Redeemable Preferred Stock
Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share
Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders, less dividends on restricted stock and LTIP Units expected to vest, plus gains on redemptions on common stock, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and any potential dilutive shares for the period. Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders is computed by adjusting net income (loss) for the non-forfeitable dividends paid on restricted stock and non-vested restricted stock.LTIP Units.
The Company considers the requirements of the two-class method when preparing earnings per share. The Company has two classes of common stock outstanding: Class A common stock, $0.01 par value per share, and Class C common stock, $0.01 par value per share. Earnings per share is not affected by the two-class method because the Company’s Class A and B-3C common stock and LTIP Units participate in dividends on a one-for-one basis.

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code and have qualified as a REIT commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2010. In order to continue to qualify as a REIT, we must distribute to our stockholders each calendar year at least 90% of our taxable income (excluding net capital gains). If we qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we generally will not be subject to federal income tax on income that we distribute to our stockholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates and will not be permitted to qualify as a REIT for four years following the year in which our qualification is denied.

We move properties previously excluded from our same store portfolio for these reasons into the same store designation once they have stabilized or the development or redevelopment is complete and such status has been reflected fully in all quarters during the applicable periods of comparison. For newly constructed or lease-up properties or properties undergoing significant redevelopment, we consider a property stabilized upon attainment of 90%90.0% physical occupancy, subject to loss-to-lease, bad debt and rent concessions.occupancy.

Net Operating Income
We believe that net operating income (“NOI”), is a useful measure of our operating performance. We define NOI as total property revenues less total property operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization and interest. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. NOI also is a computation made by analysts and investors to measure a real estate company's operating performance.
We believe that this measure provides an operating perspective not immediately apparent from GAAP operating income or net income. We use NOI to evaluate our performance on a same store and non-same store basis becausebasis; NOI allows us to evaluate the operating performance of our properties because it measures the core operations of property performance by excluding corporate level expenses and other items not related to property operating performance and captures trends in rental housing and property operating expenses.
However, NOI should only be used as an alternativea supplemental measure of our financial performance. The following table reflects net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders together with a reconciliation to NOI and to same store and non-same store contributions to consolidated NOI, as computed in accordance with GAAP for the periods presented (amounts in thousands):

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity is a measure of our ability to meet potential cash requirements. Our primary short-term liquidity requirements relate to (a) our operating expenses and other general business needs, (b) distributions to our stockholders, (c) committed investments and capital requirements to fund development and renovations at existing properties, and (d) ongoing commitments to repay borrowings, including our credit facilities and our maturing short-term debt.debt, and (e) Class A common stock repurchases under our stock repurchase program.
We believe the properties underlying itsour real estate investments are performing well. We had a portfolio-wide debt service coverage ratio of 1.98x andwell with an occupancy of 94%93.8%, exclusive of our development properties, at September 30, 2017.2019.
Subsequent to September 30, 2017, the Company, through its Operating Partnership, entered into a credit agreement (the “Senior Credit Facility”) with KeyBank National Association (“KeyBank”) and other lenders. The Senior Credit Facility provides for an initial loan commitment amount of $150 million, which commitment contains an accordion feature up to a maximum commitment of up to $250 million. The availability of borrowings will be based on the value of a pool of collateral properties and compliance with various ratios related to those assets. In addition, we have begun negotiating an additional bank credit facility pursuant to a non-binding term sheet, and we believe this facility will enable us to deploy our capital more efficiently and provide capital structure flexibility as we continue raising capital through our Series B continuous offering. No definitive agreements have been entered into and we provide no assurances that we will enter into this credit facility.
In general, we believe our available cash balances, the proceeds from theour continuous offering of Series B preferred stock continuous offering,Preferred Stock, the Senior and Amended Junior Credit Facilities, the Fannie Facility, other financing arrangements and cash flows from operations will be sufficient to fund our liquidity requirements with respect to our existing portfolio for the next 12 months. We expect that properties added to our portfolio with the proceeds from the Follow-On Offerings, and the properties we expect to acquire with the proceeds from ourcontinuous offering of Series B preferred stock continuous offeringPreferred Stock and from our recent property sales,the credit facilities will have a significant positive impact on our future results of operations. In general, we expect that our results related to our portfolio will improve in future periods as a result of anticipated future investments in and acquisitions of real estate, including our investments in development projects.estate.
We believe we will be able to meet our primary liquidity requirements going forward through:
$ |
cash generated from operating activities; and |
• | our continuous offering of Series B Preferred Stock, proceeds from future borrowings and potential offerings, including potential offerings of common and preferred stock through underwritten offerings, |
Our primary long-term liquidity requirements relate to (a) costs for additional apartment community investments;investments, (b) repayment of long-term debt;debt and our credit facilities, (c) capital expenditures; andexpenditures, (d) cash redemption requirements related to our Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock.Stock, and (e) Class A common stock repurchases under our stock repurchase program.
In February 2018, we announced a stock repurchase program to purchase up to $25 million of our outstanding shares of Class A common stock over a period of one year. In December 2018, we renewed our stock repurchase plan for a period of one year. The repurchase plan can be discontinued at any time. We purchased 1,255,445 shares of Class A common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 for a total purchase price of $13.4 million. As of September 30, 2019, the value of shares that may yet be purchased under the program is $2.6 million.

We intend to finance our long-term liquidity requirements with net proceeds of additional issuances of common and preferred stock, including our Series B Preferred Stock, the Senior Credit Facility,our credit facilities, as well as future borrowings. We entered into the Senior Credit Facility on October 4, 2017, and we believe this facility will enable us to deploy our capital more efficiently and provide capital structure flexibility as we grow our asset base. Our success in meeting these requirements will therefore depend upon our ability to access capital. Further, our ability to access equity capital is dependent upon, among other things, general market conditions for REITs and the capital markets generally, market perceptions about us and our asset class, and current trading prices of our securities.
We
As we did in the three months ended September 30, 2019, we may also selectively sell assets at appropriate times, which would be expected to generate cash sources for both our short-term and long-term liquidity needs.
We may also meet our long-term liquidity needs through borrowings from a number of sources, either at the corporate or project level. We believe the Senior and Amended Junior Credit Facilities, as well as the Fannie Facility, will continue to enable us to deploy our capital more efficiently and provide capital structure flexibility as we grow our asset base. We expect the combination of these facilities to provide us flexibility by allowing us, among other things, to use borrowings under our Senior and Amended Junior Credit Facilities to acquire properties pending placement of permanent mortgage indebtedness, including under the Fannie Facility. In addition to restrictive covenants, these credit facilities contain material financial covenants. At September 30, 2019, we were in compliance with all covenants under our credit facilities. We will continue to monitor the debt markets, including Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and as market conditions permit, access borrowings that are advantageous to us.
We intend to continue to use prudent amounts of leverage in making our investments, which we define as having total indebtedness of approximately 65% of the fair market value of the properties in which we have invested as determined by our Manager.invested. For purposes of calculating our leverage, we assume full consolidation of all our real estate investments, whether or not they would be consolidated under GAAP, include assets we have classified as held for sale, and include any joint venture level indebtedness in our total indebtedness. However, we are not subject to any limitations on the amount of leverage we may use, and accordingly, the amount of leverage we use may be significantly less or greater than we currently anticipate. We expect our leverage to decline commensurately as we execute our business plan to grow our net asset value.
If we are unable to obtain financing on favorable terms or at all, we would likely need to curtail our investment activities, including acquisitions and improvements to and developments of real properties, which could limit our growth prospects. This, in turn, could reduce cash available for distribution to our stockholders and may hinder our ability to raise capital by issuing more securities or borrowing more money. We also may be forced to dispose of assets at inopportune times in order to maintain our REIT qualification and Investment Company Act exemption.
We expect to maintain a distribution paid to our Series A Preferred Stock, our Series B Preferred Stock, our Series C Preferred Stock and our Series D Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms of those securities which require monthly or quarterly dividends depending on the series. On August 4, 2017, the board of directors announced that it initiated, in conjunction with a financial advisor, a comprehensive review of the appropriate dividend policy for the Company's Class A Common Stock. The board's evaluation will consider factors including, but not limited to, achieving a sustainable dividend covered by current recurring AFFO (vs. pro forma AFFO), multifamily and small cap peer dividend rates, multifamily and small cap peer payout ratios, providing financial flexibility for the Company, and achieving an appropriate balance between the retention of capital to invest and grow net asset value, and the importance of current distributions. The board is expected to complete its review of the dividend policy for the Company's Class A Common Stock in the fourth quarter of 2017. Currently, the Company maintains a distribution paid on a monthly basis to all of our Class A common stockholders at a quarterly rate of $0.29 per share. In August 2017, we announced that our Board is undertaking a review of our dividend policy, and that the 2018 annual dividend range for our Class A Common Stock would likely be between $0.65 and $0.75 per Class A common share. While our policy is generally to pay distributions from cash flow from operations, our distributions through September 30, 20172019 have been paid from cash flow from operations, proceeds from our continuous registered publicSeries B Preferred Stock offering, proceeds from the IPO and Follow-On Offerings,underwritten securities offerings, and sales of assets and may in the future be paid from additional sources, such as from borrowings.
We have notes receivable to related parties in conjunction with development projects. The development projects are in various stages of completion and lease-up. To date, these investments have been structured as mezzanine loans, and in the future, we may also provide mortgage financing to these types of development projects. The notes receivable provide a stated return and required repayment based on a fixed maturity date, generally in relation to the development’s construction loan maturity. If the development does not repay the notes receivable upon maturity, our income, FFO, CFFO and cash flows could be reduced below the stated returns currently being recognized if the development project does not produce sufficient cash flow to pay its operating expenses and debt service, or to refinance its debt obligations. In addition, we have, in certain cases, an option to purchase up to 100% of the common interest which holds an interest in the entity that owns the development project. If we were to convert into common ownership, our income, FFO, CFFO and cash flows would be reflective of our pro rata share of the property’s results, which could be a reduction from what our notes receivable currently generate.
We also have preferred membership interests in development projects in various stages of completion and lease-up. Our preferred equity investments are structured to provide a current preferred return during the development and lease-up phase. Each joint venture in which we own a preferred membership interest is required to redeem our preferred membership interests, plus any accrued but unpaid preferred return, based on a fixed maturity date, generally in relation to the development’s construction loan maturity. Upon redemption of the preferred membership interests, our income, FFO, CFFO and cash flows could be reduced below the preferred returns currently being recognized. Alternatively, if the joint ventures do not redeem our preferred membership interest when required, our income, FFO, CFFO and cash flows could be reduced if the development project does not produce sufficient cash flow to pays its operating expenses, debt service and preferred return obligations. As we evaluate our capital position and capital allocation strategy, we may consider alternative means of financing our development loan and preferred equity investment activities at the subsidiary level.
Since June 30, 2015, we have paid our base management fees and incentive fees in LTIPs in lieu of cash. In conjunction with the internalization, we will no longer be responsible for paying the base management fee or incentive fee, to the extent that we will be paying additional general and administrative expenses in replacement thereof, they will be paid in cash.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of September 30, 2017,2019, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have had or are reasonably likely tomay have a material effect on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital resources or capital expenditures. As of September 30, 2017,2019, we own interests in ninefifteen joint ventures that are accounted for under the equity method as we exercise significant influence over, but do not control, the investee.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
As of September 30, 2017,2019, we owned indirect equity interests in thirty-fiveforty-seven real estate properties, (twenty-fiveconsisting of thirty-one consolidated operating properties and ten development properties), twenty-six of which are consolidated for reporting purposes.sixteen through preferred equity and mezzanine loan investments.

We define redevelopmentRedevelopment and renovation costs asare non-recurring capital expenditures for significant projects that upgrade units or common areas and projects that are revenue enhancing for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. We define routinethrough unit or common area upgrades, such as clubhouse renovations and kitchen remodels. Routine capital expenditures are necessary non-revenue generating improvements that extend the useful life of the property and that are less frequent in nature, such as roof repairs and asphalt resurfacing. Normally recurring capital expenditures are necessary non-revenue generating improvements that are incurred at every propertyoccur on a regular ongoing basis, such as carpet and exclude development, investment, revenue enhancing and non-recurring capital expenditures.appliances.
Funds from Operations and AdjustedCore Funds from Operations Attributable to Common Stockholders and Unit Holders
FundsWe believe that funds from operations (“FFO”), as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), and core funds from operations (“CFFO”) are important non-GAAP supplemental measures of operating performance for a REIT.
FFO attributable to common stockholders (“FFO”),and unit holders is a non-GAAP financial measure that is widely recognized as a measure of REIT operating performance. We consider FFO to be an appropriate supplemental measure of our operating performance as it is based on a net income analysis of property portfolio performance that excludes non-cash items such as depreciation. The historical accounting convention used for real estate assets requires straight-line depreciation of buildings and improvements, which implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values historically rise and fall with market conditions, presentations of operating results for a REIT, using historical accounting for depreciation, could be less informative. We define FFO, consistent with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT's,NAREIT definition, as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) fromor losses on sales of depreciable real estate property, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, plus impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis.
In additionCFFO makes certain adjustments to FFO, we use adjusted funds from operations attributable to common stockholders (“AFFO”). AFFO is a computation made by analysts and investors to measure a real estate company's operating performance by removing the effect of items that do not reflect ongoing property operations. In computing AFFO, we further adjust FFO by adding back certain items that are not added to net income in NAREIT's definition of FFO,operations such as acquisition and pursuit costs, equity based compensation expenses, and any other non-recurring or non-cash expenses, which are costs that do not relate to the operating performance of our properties, and subtracting recurring capital expenditures (and when calculating the quarterly incentive fee payable to our Manager only, we further adjust FFO to include any realizedinterest, unrealized gains or losses on ourderivatives, losses on extinguishment of debt and debt modification costs (includes prepayment penalties incurred and the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs and fair market value adjustments of assumed debt), one-time weather-related costs, gains or losses on sales of non-depreciable real estate investments).
During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we incurred $3.2 million of acquisition and pursuitproperty, shareholder activism, stock compensation expense and $3.7 millionpreferred stock accretion. We believe that CFFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it excludes the effects of disposition expense,certain items which can create significant earnings volatility, but which do not directly relate to our core recurring property operations. As a result, we believe that CFFO can help facilitate comparisons of which $2.5 millionoperating performance between periods and $3.1 million, respectively, was our pro rata shareprovides a more meaningful predictor of the expense. We incurred $2.1 million of acquisition and pursuit expense and $0.4 million of disposition expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, of which $2.5 million was our pro-rata share of expense. The Company adopted ASU 2017-01 which resulted in the capitalization of costs incurred in asset acquisitions purchased after the effective date of January 1, 2017.future earnings potential.
Our calculation of AFFOCFFO differs from the methodology used for calculating AFFOCFFO by certain other REITs and, accordingly, our AFFOCFFO may not be comparable to AFFOCFFO reported by other REITs. Our management utilizes FFO and AFFOCFFO as measures of our operating performance after adjustment for certain non-cash items, such as depreciation and amortization expenses, and acquisition and pursuit costs that are required by GAAP to be expensed but may not necessarily be indicative of current operating performance and that may not accurately compare our operating performance between periods. Furthermore, although FFO AFFOand CFFO and other supplemental performance measures are defined in various ways throughout the REIT industry, we also believe that FFO and AFFOCFFO may provide us and our stockholders with an additional useful measure to compare our financial performance to certain other REITs. We also use AFFO for purposes of determining the quarterly incentive fee, if any, payable to our Manager.
Neither FFO nor AFFOCFFO is equivalent to net income, including net income attributable to common stockholders, or cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, FFO and AFFOCFFO do not represent amounts available for management's discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments or uncertainties. Neither FFO nor AFFOCFFO should be considered as an alternative to net income, including net income attributable to common stockholders, as an indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.
We have acquired interests in thirteen additionalfive operating properties and three developmentmade six property investments through preferred equity interests or mezzanine loans, and sold fiveseven operating properties subsequent to September 30, 2016. 2018.The results presented in the table below are not directly comparable and should not be considered an indication of our future operating performance.

Presentation of this information is intended to assist the reader in comparing the sustainability of the operating performance of different REITs, although it should be noted that not all REITs calculate FFO or AFFOCFFO the same way, so comparisons with other REITs may not be meaningful. FFO or AFFOCFFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss), attributable to common stockholders or as an indication of our liquidity, nor is either indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions.

A portion of each dividend may constitute a return of capital for tax purposes. There is no assurance that the Companywe will continue to declare dividends or at this rate. Holders of OP Units and LTIP Units are entitled to receive “distribution equivalents” at the same time as dividends are paid to holders of our Class A common stock.
Our Board will determine the amount of dividends to be paid to our stockholders. The Board’s determination will be based on a number of factors, including funds available from operations, our capital expenditure requirements and the annual distribution requirements necessary to maintain our REIT status under the Internal Revenue Code. As a result, our distribution rate and payment frequency may vary from time to time. However, to qualify as a REIT for tax purposes, we must make distributions equal to at least 90% of our “REIT taxable income” each year. Especially during the early stages of our operations, we may declare distributions in excess of funds from operations.

Significant Accounting Policies and Critical Accounting Estimates
Our significant accounting policies and critical accounting estimates are disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20162018 and Note 2 “Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the interim Consolidated Financial Statements.
Subsequent Events
Other than the items disclosed in Note 13,15, “Subsequent Events” to our interim Consolidated Financial Statements for the period ended September 30, 2017,2019, no material events have occurred that required recognition or disclosure in these financial statements. See Note 1315 to our interim Consolidated Financial Statements for discussion.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We are exposed to interest rate risk primarily through borrowing activities. There is inherent roll-over risk for borrowings as they mature and are renewed at current market rates. The extent of this risk is not quantifiable or predictable because of the variability of future interest rates and our future financing requirements. We are not subject to foreign exchange rates or commodity price risk, and all of our financial instruments were entered into for other than trading purposes.
Our interest rate risk is monitored using a variety of techniques. The table below presents the principal payments (in thousands) and the weighted average interest rates on outstanding debt, by year of expected maturity, to evaluate the expected cash flows and sensitivity to interest rate changes.

The fair value (in thousands)of mortgages payable is estimated at $856.0$1,261.4 million for mortgages payable as of September 30, 2017.2019.
The table above incorporates those exposures that exist as of September 30, 2017;2019; it does not consider those exposures or positions which could arise after that date. As a result, our ultimate realized gain or loss with respect to interest rate fluctuations will depend on the exposures that arise during the period and interest rates.
As of September 30, 2017,2019, we had seven interest rate caps, which are not accounted for as hedges, that we primarily use as part of our interest rate risk management strategy. Our interest rate caps effectively limit our exposure to interest rate risk by providing a 100 basisceiling on the underlying floating interest rates of our floating rate debt.
As of September 30, 2019, a 100-basis point increase or decrease in interest rates on the portion of our debt bearing interest at variablefloating rates would result in an increase in interest expense of approximately $170,000 or decrease in interest expense of approximately $1.0 million$455,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2017.2019.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) and Rule 15d-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief AccountingFinancial Officer, evaluated, as of September 30, 2017,2019, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief AccountingFinancial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2017,2019 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in this report filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of the Exchange Act and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief AccountingFinancial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
We believe, however, that a controls system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls systems are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud or error, if any, within a company have been detected.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 20172019 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
None.
Other than the following, there have been no material changes to our potential risks and uncertainties presented in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the twelve months ended December 31, 20162018 filed with the SEC on February 22, 2017.27, 2019.
Your interests could be diluted by the incurrence of additional debt, the issuance of additional shares of preferred stock, including additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock (together the “Preferred Stock”) and by other transactions.
As of September 30, 2017,2019, our total long-term indebtedness was approximately $853.6 million,$1.3 billion, and we may incur significant additional debt in the future. The Preferred Stock is subordinate to all of our existing and future debt and liabilities and those of our subsidiaries. Our future debt may include restrictions on our ability to pay dividends to preferred stockholders in the event of a default under the debt facilities or under other circumstances. Our charter currently authorizes the issuance of up to 250,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more classes or series, and as of September 30, 2019, the datenumber of this filing, we have issuedpreferred shares outstanding was as follows: 5,721,460 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, (146,460 of which have been issued in the Series A ATM Offering), 151,610460,064 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, 2,323,750 shares of Series C Preferred Stock and 2,850,602 shares of Series D Preferred Stock. The issuance of additional preferred stock on parity with or senior to the Preferred Stock would dilute the interests of the holders of shares of Preferred Stock, and any issuance of preferred stock senior to the Preferred Stock or of additional indebtedness could affect our ability to pay dividends on, redeem or pay the liquidation preference on the Preferred Stock. We may issue preferred stock on parity with the Preferred Stock without the consent of the holders of the Preferred Stock. Other than the Asset Coverage Ratio, our letter agreement with Cetera Financial Group, Inc. pertaining to our Series B Preferred Stock that requires us to maintain a preferred dividend coverage ratio and the right of holders to cause us to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock upon a Change of Control/Delisting, none of the provisions relating to the Preferred Stock relate to or limit our indebtedness or afford the holders of shares of Preferred Stock protection in the event of a highly leveraged or other transaction, including a merger or the sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all our assets or business, that might adversely affect the holders of shares of Preferred Stock.
Risks Relating to the Internalization Transaction
The Issuances of shares of our Class C Common Stock in connection with the Internalization, and the Issuances of shares of our Class A Common Stock upon redemption of OP Units and/or conversion of shares of our Class C Common Stock issued in connection with the Internalization, will have a dilutive effect and will reduce the voting power and relative percentage interests of current holders of our Class A Common Stockholders in our earnings and market value.
The issuance of 76,603 shares of our Class C Common Stock in connection with the Internalization will have a dilutive effect and will reduce the voting power and relative percentage interests of current Class A Common Stockholders in our earnings and market value.
Additionally, part of the Internalization Consideration consists of 3,753,593 OP Units, which may have a dilutive effect on the voting power and percentage interests of our current Class A Common Stockholders. Commencing on the one-year anniversary of the Closing, each OP Unit may be tendered for redemption, at the holder’s option and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the limited partnership agreement of our Operating Partnership, for cash equal to the average closing price of Class A Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date we receive a notice of redemption, or, at our sole option, for shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis, in lieu of cash. If the recipients of OP Units in the Internalization exercise their redemption rights and part or all of their outstanding OP Units are redeemed for shares of our Class A Common Stock, such redemption will have a dilutive effect on our common stock and reduce the relative percentage interests of existing common stockholders in our earnings, voting power and market value.
Future sales of our Class A Common Stock by the Contributors may adversely affect the market price of our Class A Common Stock. These sales also might make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities in the future at a time and price we deem appropriate. Upon consummation of the Internalization, our Operating Partnership will issue a number of OP Units to the Contributors as Internalization Consideration, which OP Units may be redeemed in shares of our Class A Common Stock rather than cash, at the Company’s option. In addition, shares of Class C Common Stock will be convertible, at the holder’s option (at any time and from time to time), into one (1) fully-paid and non-assessable share of our Class A Common Stock, and upon the occurrence of certain transfers of OP Units or shares of Class C Common Stock and similar events, will convert automatically into one (1) fully-paid and non-assessable share of our Class A Common Stock. Sales of a substantial number of shares of our Class A Common Stock by the Contributors, the perception or expectation that such sales may occur, or sales of shares of our Class A Common Stock to cover tax obligations (some of which may occur shortly after the closing of the Internalization), could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and the prevailing market price for shares of our Class A Common Stock.
The Internalization was negotiated between the Special Committee, which is comprised solely of independent and disinterested members of our board of directors, the Manager, which is affiliated with certain of our officers and directors, and the Contributors, including R. Ramin Kamfar, our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, Gary Kachadurian, one of our directors, and certain other officers.
The Internalization was negotiated with the Manager, which is affiliated with certain of our officers and directors, and the Contributors, including Messrs. Kamfar and Kachadurian, Michael L. Konig, our General Counsel and Secretary, and Christopher A. Vohs, our Chief Accounting Officer and Treasurer. As a result, those officers and directors may have different interests than the Company as a whole. This potential conflict would not exist in the case of a transaction negotiated with unaffiliated third parties. Moreover, if the Manager or any Contributor breaches any of the representations, warranties or covenants made by it in the Contribution Agreement, we may choose not to enforce, or to enforce less vigorously, our rights because of our desire to maintain our ongoing relationship with the Manager, the Contributors and the interests of certain of our directors and officers. Moreover, the representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities in the Contribution Agreement are subject to limitations and qualifiers, which may also limit our ability to enforce any remedy under the Contribution Agreement.
Certain of our directors and executive officers have interests in the Internalization that are different from, and may potentially conflict with, the interests of us and our stockholders.
Certain of our directors and executive officers have interests in the Internalization that may be different from, or in addition to, the interests of our stockholders generally and that may create potential conflicts of interest, including (i) the payment of Internalization Consideration in connection with the Internalization directly or indirectly to certain of these individuals, including Messrs. Kamfar, Kachadurian, and Konig, and the entry by the applicable individuals into arrangements relating to the payment of that consideration, and (ii) the entry by Bluerock REIT Operator, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of our Manager (“Manager Sub”), in its post-Closing capacity as an indirect subsidiary of the Company, into employment agreements with Messrs. Kamfar and Vohs as well as James Babb, Jordan Ruddy and Ryan MacDonald, who are executive officers and principals of our Manager, and into a services agreement with Mr. Konig through Konig & Associates, all of which will become effective upon consummation of the Internalization.
In addition, Mr. Kamfar owns a controlling interest in Bluerock Real Estate, L.L.C. (“BRRE”), the sole managing member of our Manager; Messrs. Babb, MacDonald, Ruddy, Vohs and Konig are also executive officers or principals of our Manager; and Mr. Kachadurian is Vice Chairman of the Manager. The respective roles of these individuals in the Manager may create additional conflicts of interest in respect of the Internalization and the related transactions.
Following the Internalization, Mr. Kamfar will control a significant number of votes in any matter presented to our Class A Common Stockholders for approval, including the election of directors.
Although, the 76,603 shares of Class C Common Stock issued in connection with the Internalization is not designed to provide for disproportionate voting rights, the issuance of the Class C Common Stock resulted in Mr. Kamfar controlling significant voting power in matters submitted to a vote of our Class A Common Stockholders as a result of his beneficial ownership of Class C Common Stock (which gives him voting power equal to the economic interest in the Company issued to BRRE in the form of OP Units as if all of those OP Units were redeemed for shares of Class A Common Stock), including the election of directors. Mr. Kamfar may have interests that differ from our other stockholders, including by reason of his direct or indirect interest in our Operating Partnership, and may accordingly vote in ways that may not be consistent with the interests of those other stockholders.
Our net income, FFO and AFFO may decrease in the near term as a result of the Internalization.
We will expense all cash and non-cash costs involved in the Internalization. As a result, our statement of operations and FFO will be negatively impacted, driven predominately by the non-cash charges related to the issuance of OP Units and shares of Class C Common Stock as Internalization Consideration and, to a lesser extent, other transaction-related costs. In addition, while we will no longer effectively bear the costs of the various fees and expense reimbursements previously paid to the Manager after we became internally managed pursuant to the Internalization, our expenses will include the compensation and benefits of our executive officers and the employees of Manager Sub, which will then be our indirect subsidiary, as well as overhead previously paid by the Manager or its affiliates in managing our business and operations. Furthermore, these employees and consultants of Manager Sub will be providing us services historically provided by the Manager. There are no assurances that, following the Internalization, these employees and consultants will be able or incentivized to provide services at the same level or for the same costs as were previously provided to us by the Manager, and there may be other unforeseen costs, expenses and difficulties associated with operating as an internally managed company. If the expenses we assume as a result of the Internalization are higher than the fees that we currently pay the Manager or otherwise higher than we anticipate, we may not realize the anticipated cost savings and other benefits from the Internalization and our net income, FFO and AFFO could decrease further, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Internalization may not be accretive to our stockholders.
The Internalization may not be accretive to our stockholders. While it is intended that the Internalization be accretive to our net income, earnings and AFFO, there can be no assurance that this will be the case, as, among other things, the expenses we assume as a result of the Internalization may be higher than we anticipate and we may not achieve our anticipated cost savings from the Internalization. The failure of the Internalization to be accretive to our stockholders could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We may not manage the Internalization effectively or realize its anticipated benefits.
We may not manage the Internalization effectively. The Internalization could be a time-consuming and costly process and we may encounter potential difficulties in the integration process including, among other things:
For all these reasons, you should be aware that it is possible that the Internalization process could result in the distraction of our management, the disruption of our ongoing business or inconsistencies in our operations, services, standards, controls, procedures and policies, any of which could adversely affect our ability to maintain relationships with employees or third-parties to achieve the anticipated benefits of the Internalization, or could otherwise adversely affect our business and financial results. Therefore, the failure to plan and manage the Internalization effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We depend on our key executives and other employees of an affiliate of the Manager. There is no guarantee that such key executives and employees will remain employed or engaged by us for any specified period of time, and will not engage in competitive activities if they cease to be employed with or engaged by us.
We depend on the key executives and employees of an affiliate of the Manager. It is expected that, following the consummation of the Internalization, we will continue to substantially depend on the services of Messrs. Kamfar, Babb, MacDonald, Ruddy and Vohs, who have each entered into employment agreements with Manager Sub, which will then be an indirect subsidiary of the Company, and Mr. Konig, who has entered into a services agreement with Manager Sub through Konig & Associates on substantially the same terms as the employment agreements. Each such agreement will become effective upon Closing, and will have an initial term through and including December 31, 2020. These agreements have been structured to incentivize our executives to stay through the end of their initial terms and, subject to the Company’s approval, to extend the terms of service for successive one-year terms. Nevertheless, as is presently the case under the Management Agreement with the Manager, the departure or the loss of the services of any of these individuals, or other senior management personnel or employees, following the Internalization could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and ability to effectively operate our business.
Further, the employment and services agreements entered into by Manager Sub with each of Messrs. Kamfar, Babb, MacDonald, Ruddy, Vohs and Konig contain certain restrictions on these executives, including a restriction on engaging in activities that are deemed competitive to our business. Although we believe these covenants to be enforceable under current law in the states in which we do business, there can be no guarantee that if our executives were to breach these covenants and engage in competitive activities, a court of law would fully enforce these restrictions. If these executives were to terminate their employment or service relationship (as applicable) with Manager Sub and engage in competitive activities, such activities could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Mr. Kamfar and certain other executive officers and members of our senior management team will have competing demands on their time and attention.
Mr. Kamfar, who continues to serve as our Chief Executive Officer and as Chairman of our board of directors following the Internalization, and Messrs. Babb, Ruddy, MacDonald and Konig, will continue to have competing demands on their respective time and attention following the Internalization, principally with respect to the provision of services to certain outside entities affiliated with BRRE. Such competing demands are not expected to be different from those that presently exist, but there is no assurance those demands will not increase and may result in these individuals devoting time to such outside entities in a manner that could adversely affect our business. Under their respective employment or services agreements (as applicable), Mr. Kamfar and our other executive officers are permitted to devote time to certain outside activities, so long as those duties and activities do not unreasonably interfere with the performance of their respective duties to us.
We may be exposed to risks to which we have not historically been exposed, including liabilities with respect to the assets acquired from the Manager.
The Internalization will expose us to risks to which we have not historically been exposed. Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, we will incur liabilities with respect to the assets acquired from the Manager and certain of its affiliates. In addition, our overhead will increase as a result of our becoming internally managed, as the responsibility for overhead relating to management of our business currently is borne by the Manager, and will become our responsibility following the Internalization. In addition, in our formerly externally-advised structure, we did not directly employ any employees. As a result of the Internalization, we indirectly, through Manager Sub, employ persons who are currently associated with the Manager or its affiliates. As their employer, we will indirectly, through Manager Sub, be subject to those potential liabilities that are commonly faced by employers, such as workers’ disability and compensation claims, potential labor disputes and other employee-related liabilities and grievances, and we will bear the costs of the establishment and maintenance of employee benefit plans, if established. Furthermore, these employees will be providing us services historically provided by the Manager, which will be provided with the support of the Administrative Services Agreement. There are no assurances that, following the Internalization, these employees of Manager Sub will be able to provide us with the same level of services as were previously provided to us by the Manager, and there may be other unforeseen costs, expenses and difficulties associated with operating as an internally managed company.
The representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities in the Contribution Agreement and related agreements are subject to limitations and qualifiers, which may limit our ability to enforce any remedy under these agreements.
The representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities in the Contribution Agreement, the related Administrative Services Agreement and other agreements related to the Internalization are subject to limitations and qualifiers, which may limit our ability to enforce any remedy under these agreements. These include, without limitation, limitations on liability and materiality qualifiers on certain representations and covenants.
Conflicts of interest may exist or could arise in the future with our Operating Partnership and its limited partners, which may impede business decisions that could benefit our stockholders.
Following the implementation of our Company’s structure as a result of the Internalization, conflicts of interest may exist or could arise as a result of the relationships between us and our affiliates, on the one hand, and our Operating Partnership or any member thereof, on the other. Our directors and officers have duties to our Company and our stockholders under applicable Maryland law in connection with their management of our Company. At the same time, we, as general partner of our Operating Partnership, have fiduciary duties to our Operating Partnership and to its limited partners under Delaware law in connection with the management of our Operating Partnership. Our duties to our Operating Partnership and its limited partners as the general partner may come into conflict with the duties of our directors and officers to our Company and our stockholders. These conflicts may be resolved in a manner that is not in the best interest of our stockholders.
