New Accounting Standards and Reclassifications


New Accounting Standards Adopted


In July 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-11 which amends Topic 842, Leases, and provides lessors with a practical expedient, by class of underlying asset, to not separate non-lease components from the associated lease component and, instead, to account for those components as a single component if the non-lease components otherwise would be accounted for under the new revenue guidance and both of the following are met: i) the timing and pattern of transfer of the non-lease component(s) and associated lease component are the same; and ii) the lease component, if accounted for separately, would be classified as an operating lease. Under this new expedient, if the non-lease components associated with the lease component are the predominant component of the combined component, a company should account for the combined component in accordance with Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Otherwise, the company should account for the combined component as an operating lease in accordance with Topic 842. In December 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-20 which amends Topic 842, Leases, and allows lessors to continue to exclude from revenue the lessor costs that are paid by lessees directly to third parties. The Company adopted Topic 842 on
8

January 1, 2019, using the practical expedient, and i

tit did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company determined that for all leases where the Company is the lessor, that the timing and pattern of transfer of the non-lease components and associated lease components are the same, and that the lease components, if accounted for separately, would be classified as an operating lease. Accordingly, the Company has made an accounting policy election to recognize the combined component in accordance with Topic 842 as rental income on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.


In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), and various subsequent ASU’s, which set out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract (i.e. lessees and lessors). Topic 842 superseded the previous leases standard, Topic 840, Leases. The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification determines whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight line basis over the term of the lease, respectively. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Leases with a term of 12 months or less are accounted for similar to the previous guidance for operating leases. The new standard requires lessors to account for leases using an approach that is substantially equivalent to the previous guidance for sales-type leases, direct financing leases and operating leases. ASU 2016-02 impacted the Company’s consolidated financial statements as the Company has ground leases and its corporate office lease for which it is the lessee, which resulted in the recording of a right-of-use asset and the related lease liability.


The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective transition method. The adoption of this standard resulted in a cumulative effect adjustment of approximately $0.2 million recorded as an increase to cumulative dividends in excess of earnings as of January 1, 2019 in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Equity. The cumulative effect adjustment related to initial direct costs of leases where the Company is the lessor and that, as of January 1, 2019, had not begun to amortize and are no longer allowed to be capitalized under the new standard. On January 1, 2019, the Company recognized operating lease right-of-use assets of approximately $16.3 million and related operating lease liabilities of approximately $18.0 million on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets, related to the leases where the Company is the lessee. The Company adopted the new standard using the practical expedient package which allowed the Company to (i) not reassess whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases; (ii) not reassess the lease classification for any expired or existing leases; and (iii) not reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases. This practical expedient allows the Company to continue to account for its ground leases as operating leases. Prospectively, any new or modified ground leases may be classified as a financing lease. The adoption of this standard by the Company has been applied prospectively,as of January 1, 2019, and the comparative periods have not been restated.


For leases in which the Company is the lessee, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets equal to the present value of the fixed lease payments. In determining operating right-of-use asset and lease liability for the Company’s existing operating leases upon the adoption of the new lease guidance, the Company was required to estimate an appropriate incremental borrowing rate on a fully-collateralized basis for the terms of the leases. The Company utilized a market-based approach to estimate the incremental borrowing rate for each individual lease. Since the terms under the ground leases are significantly longer than the terms of borrowings available to the Company on a fully-collateralized basis, the estimate of this rate required significant judgment, and considered factors such as yields on outstanding public debt and other market based pricing on longer duration financing instruments.


The new leases standard requires the Company to evaluate cash basis versus accrual basis of rental income recognition based on the collectability of future lease payments.


Reclassifications


Prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation due to the adoption of ASU 2016-02. Amounts previously classified as rental income and tenant recoveries in the prior period are now classified as rental income on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations, as the Company has made an accounting policy election to combine these amounts that are accounted for under the new leases standard.


Certain other prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

On July 12, 2019, the Company entered into the $200.0 million unsecured Unsecured Term Loan F. As of September 30, 2019, the interest rate on the Unsecured Term Loan F was LIBOR plus a spread of 1.00% based on the Company’s debt rating, as defined in the loan agreement. Unless otherwise terminated pursuant to the loan agreement, the Unsecured Term Loan F will mature on January 12, 2025. The Unsecured Term Loan F has a feature that allows the Company to request an increase in the aggregate size of the unsecured term loan of up to $400.0 million, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and lender consents. The agreement includes a delayed draw feature that allows the Company to draw up to 6 advances of at least $25.0 million each until July 12, 2020. To the extent that the Company does not request advances of the $200.0 million of aggregate commitments by July 12, 2020, the unadvanced commitments terminate. The Unsecured Term Loan F has an unused commitment fee equal to 0.15% of its unused commitments, which began to accrue on October 10, 2019 and is due and payable monthly until the earlier of (i) the date that aggregate commitments of $200.0 million have been fully advanced, (ii) July 12, 2020, and (iii) the date that aggregate commitments have been reduced to zero pursuant to the terms of the agreement. The Company is required to pay an annual administrative agent fee of $35,000. The Company and certain wholly owned subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership are guarantors of the Unsecured Term Loan F. The agreement also contains financial and other covenants substantially similar to the covenants in the Company's unsecured credit facility. As of September 30, 2019, no amounts were outstanding under the Unsecured Term Loan F.

Financial Covenant Considerations


The Company was in compliance with all financial and other covenants as of March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 related to its unsecured credit facility, unsecured term loans, unsecured notes, and mortgage notes. The real estate net book value of the properties that are collateral for the Company’s debt arrangements was approximately $87.2$86.0 million and $88.2 million at March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, and is limited to senior, property-level secured debt financing arrangements.

The applicable fair value guidance establishes a three tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. The fair value of the Company’s debt is based on Level 3 inputs.


5. Use of Derivative Financial Instruments


Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives


The Company’s use of derivative instruments is limited to the utilization of interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk exposure on existing and future liabilities and not for speculative purposes. The principal objective of such arrangements is to minimize the risks and related costs associated with the Company’s operating and financial structure.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk


The Company’s objectives in using interest rate swaps are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. 


For derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the same periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.


Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to derivatives designated as qualifying cash flow hedges will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable rate debt. The Company estimates that approximately $3.0$3.8 million will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as a decreasean increase to interest expense over the next 12 months.

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features


The Company has agreements with each of its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where the Company could be declared in default on its derivative obligations if repayment of the underlying indebtedness is accelerated by the lender due to the Company’s default on the indebtedness.


As of March 31, 2019, derivatives that were in a net liability position by counterparty and subject to credit-risk-related contingent features had a termination value of approximately $3.5 million, which includes accrued interest but excludes any adjustment for nonperformance risk. As of March 31,September 30, 2019, the Company had not breached the provisions of these agreements and had not posted any collateral related to these agreements. If the Company had breached any of these provisions at March 31,September 30, 2019, it could have been required to settle its obligations under the agreement of the interest rate swaps in a net liability position by counterparty plus accrued interest for approximately $3.5$24.6 million.


Fair Value of Interest Rate Swaps


The Company’s valuation of the interest rate swaps is determined 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.


The Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of its derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, the Company has considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts, and guarantees.


Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties. However, as of March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its derivatives. As a result, the Company has determined that its derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Certain Definitions


In this report:


We define “GAAP” as generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.


We define “total annualized base rental revenue” as the contractual monthly base rent as of March 31,September 30, 2019 (which differs from rent calculated in accordance with GAAP) multiplied by 12. If a tenant is in a free rent period as of March 31,September 30, 2019, the total annualized base rental revenue is calculated based on the first contractual monthly base rent amount multiplied by 12.


We define “occupancy rate” as the percentage of total leasable square footage for which either revenue recognition has commenced in accordance with GAAP or the lease term has commenced as of the close of the reporting period, whichever occurs earlier.


We define the “Value Add Portfolio” as properties that meet any of the following criteria: (i) less than 75% occupied as of the acquisition date; (ii) will be less than 75% occupied due to known move-outs within two years of the acquisition date; (iii) out of service with significant physical renovation of the asset; or (iv)development.


We define “Stabilization” for properties under development or being redeveloped as the earlier of achieving 90% occupancy or twelve12 months after completion. With respect to properties acquired and immediately added to the Value Add Portfolio, (i) if acquired with less than 75% occupancy as of the acquisition date, Stabilization will occur upon the earlier of achieving 90% occupancy or twelve12 months from the acquisition date; or (ii) if acquired and will be less than 75% occupied due to known move-outs within two years of the acquisition date, Stabilization will occur upon the earlier of achieving 90% occupancy after the known move-outs have occurred or twelve12 months after the known move-outs have occurred.


We define the “Operating Portfolio” as all warehouse and light manufacturing assets that were acquired stabilized or have achieved Stabilization. The Operating Portfolio excludes non-core flex/office assets and assets contained in the Value Add Portfolio.


We define a “Comparable Lease” as a lease in the same space with a similar lease structure as compared to the previous in-place lease, excluding new leases for space that was not occupied under our ownership.


28

We define “SL Rent Change” as the percentage change in the average monthly base rent over the term of the lease calculated on a straight-line basis, of the leasethat commenced during the period compared to the Comparable Lease for assets included in the Operating Portfolio. Rent under gross or similar type leases are converted to a net rent based on an estimate of the applicable recoverable expenses, and this calculation excludes the impact of any holdover rent.



We define “Cash Rent Change” as the percentage change in the base rent of the lease commenced during the period compared to the base rent of the Comparable Lease for assets included in the Operating Portfolio. The calculation compares the first base rent payment due after the lease commencement date compared to the base rent of the last monthly payment due prior to the termination of the lease, excluding holdover rent. Rent under gross or similar type leases are converted to a net rent based on an estimate of the applicable recoverable expenses.


We define a “New Lease” as any lease that is signed for an initial term equal to or greater than 12 months for any vacant space, including a lease signed by a new tenant or an existing tenant that is expanding into new (additional) space.

We define “Renewal” Lease as a lease signed by an existing tenant to extend the term for 12 months or more, including (i) a renewal of the same space as the current lease at lease expiration, (ii) a renewal of only a portion of the current space at lease expiration and (iii) an early renewal or workout, which ultimately does extend the original term for 12 months or more.

Overview


We are a REIT focused on the acquisition, ownership, and operation of single-tenant, industrial properties throughout the United States. We are a Maryland corporation and our common stock is publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “STAG.”


We are organized and conduct our operations to qualify as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and generally are not subject to federal income tax to the extent we currently distribute our income to our stockholders and maintain our qualification as a REIT. We remain subject to state and local taxes on our income and property and to U.S. federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed income.


Factors That May Influence Future Results of Operations


Our ability to increase revenues or cash flow will depend in part on our (i) external growth, specifically acquisition activity, and (ii) internal growth, specifically occupancy and rental rates on our portfolio. A variety of other factors, including those noted below, also affect our future results of operations.


Outlook


The outlook for our business remains positive, albeit on a moderated basis in light of over nineten years of economic growth, some uncertainty regarding the current U.S. presidential administration and its policy initiatives, and continued asset appreciation. In the firstthird quarter of 2019, the federal funds target rate was unchanged atlowered twice, each by 25 basis points, to a target range of 2.25%1.75% to 2.50%2.0%. This target rate range supports continuedThe Federal Reserve has signaled that it will support economic growth and is expected to remain unchanged throughout 2019. We believeas needed. The current economic growth combined with the currently favorable industrial supply demand balance should translate to a net positive result for our business. Specifically, we expect our existing portfolio willshould benefit from rising rental rates and strong occupancy. Furthermore, we believe certain characteristics of our business should position us well in an uncertain interest rate environment, including the fact that we have minimal floating rate debt exposure (taking into account our hedging activities) and that many of our competitors for the assets we purchase tend to be smaller local and regional investors who are likely to be more heavily impacted by interest rates.
Several industrial specific trends contribute to the expected strong demand, including:


the rise of e-commerce (as compared to the traditional retail store distribution model) and the concomitant demand by e-commerce industry participants for well-located, functional distribution space;
the increasing attractiveness of the U.S. as a manufacturing and distribution location because of the size of the U.S. consumer market, an increase in overseas labor costs and the overall cost of supplying and shipping goods (i.e. the shortening and fattening of the supply chain); and
the overall quality of the transportation infrastructure in the U.S.


Our portfolio continues to benefit from historically low availability throughout the national industrial market. At the endAs of the first quarter,most recent data, demand for space has continuedcontinues to outpacesupport new supply supportingand an accommodative environment for owners. Development
29

activity has steadily increased over the past several years and is now reaching material levels in a growing number of primary industrial markets. Though availability remains historically low, this is a trend we will monitor closely. In addition, currently, the supply remains fairly concentrated in the larger primary industrial markets and we have limited exposure to many of these markets. On the demand side, we note that the quality and availability of labor remains a key focus of tenants making occupancy decisions. We will continue to monitor the supply and demand fundamentals for industrial real estate and assess its impact on our business.
Conditions in Our Markets


The buildings in our portfolio are located in markets throughout the United States. Positive or negative changes in economic or other conditions, new supply, adverse weather conditions and natural disasters, and other factors in these markets may affect our overall performance.



Rental Income


We receive income primarily in the form of rental income from the tenants who occupy our buildings. The amount of rental income generated by the buildings in our portfolio depends principally on occupancy and rental rates. As of March 31,September 30, 2019, our Operating Portfolio was approximately 95.7%95.6% leased and our SL Rent Change on new and renewal leases together grew approximately 24.3%16.5% and 20.1% during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2019.September 30, 2019, respectively.


Future economic downturns or regional downturns affecting our submarkets that impair our ability to renew or re-lease space and the ability of our tenants to fulfill their lease commitments, as in the case of tenant bankruptcies, could adversely affect our ability to maintain or increase rental rates at our buildings. Our ability to lease our properties and the attendant rental rate is dependent upon, among other things, (i) the overall economy, (ii) the supply/demand dynamic in our markets, (iii) the quality of our properties, including age, clear height, and configuration, and (iv) our tenants’ ability to meet their contractual obligations to us.


The following table provides a summary ofsummarizes our Operating Portfolio leases that commenced during the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019. Certain leases contain rental concessions; any such rental concessions are accounted for on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

(1)We define Total Costs as the costs for improvements of vacant and renewal spaces, as well as the contingent-based legal fees and commissions for leasing transactions. Total Costs per square foot represent the total costs expected to be incurred on the leases that commenced during the period and do not reflect actual expenditures for the period.
(2)We define weighted average lease term as the contractual lease term in years, assuming that tenants exercise no renewal options, purchase options, or early termination rights, weighted by square footage.
(3)Represents the total rental concessions for the entire lease term.
(4)We define a New Lease as any lease that is signed for an initial term equal to or greater than twelve months for any vacant space; this includes a new tenant or an existing tenant that is expanding into new (additional) space.
(5)
We define Renewal Lease as a lease signed by an existing tenant to extend the term for twelve months or more, including (i) a renewal of the same space as the current lease at lease expiration, (ii) a renewal of only a portion of the current space at lease expiration and (iii) an early renewal or workout, which ultimately does extend the original term for twelve months or more.

Property Operating Expenses


Our property operating expenses generally consist of utilities, real estate taxes, management fees, insurance, and site repair and maintenance costs. For the majority of our tenants, our property operating expenses are controlled, in part, by the triple net provisions in tenant leases. In our triple net leases, the tenant is responsible for all aspects of and costs related to the building and its operation during the lease term, including utilities, taxes, insurance and maintenance costs, but typically excluding roof and building structure. However, we also have modified gross leases and gross leases in our building portfolio. The terms of those leases vary and on some occasions we may absorb certain building related expenses of our tenants. In our modified gross leases, we are responsible for some building related expenses during the lease term, but the cost of most of the expenses is passed through to the tenant for reimbursement to us. In our gross leases, we are responsible for all costs related to the building and its operation during the lease term. Our overall performance will be affected by the extent to which we are able to pass-through property operating expenses to our tenants.


Scheduled Lease Expirations


Our ability to re-lease space subject to expiring leases will impact our results of operations and is affected by economic and competitive conditions in our markets and by the desirability of our individual buildings. Leases that comprise approximately 7.8%6.6% of our annualized base rental revenue will expire during the period from AprilOctober 1, 2019 to March 31,September 30, 2020, excluding month to monthmonth-to-month leases. We assume, based upon internal renewal probability estimates that some of our tenants will renew and others will vacate and the associated space will be re-let subject to downtime assumptions. Using the aforementioned assumptions, we expect that the rental rates on the respective new leases will generally be the same as the rates under existing leases expiring during the period AprilOctober 1, 2019 to March 31,September 30, 2020, thereby resulting in approximately the same revenue from the same space.



The following table sets forth a summary ofsummarizes lease expirations for leases in place as of March 31,September 30, 2019, plus available space, for each of the ten calendar years beginning with 2019 and thereafter in our portfolio. The information in the table assumes that tenants exercise no renewal options and no early termination rights.

Critical Accounting Policies


See “Critical Accounting Policies” in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, for a discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates.


On January 1, 2019, we adopted ASUAccounting Standards Update 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842); see Note 2 in the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements under “New Accounting Standards and Reclassifications.”


Results of Operations


The following discussion of our results of our same store (as defined below) net operating income (“NOI”) should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements. For a detailed discussion of NOI, including the reasons management believes NOI is useful to investors, see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below. Same store results are considered to be useful to investors in evaluating our performance because they provide information relating to changes in building-level operating performance without taking into account the effects of acquisitions or dispositions. We encourage the reader to not only look at our same store results, but also our total portfolio results, due to historic and future growth.


Comparison of the three months ended March 31, 2019 to the three months ended March 31, 2018

We define same store properties as properties that were in the Operating Portfolio for the entirety of the comparative periods presented. Same store properties exclude Operating Portfolio properties with expansions placed into service after December 31, 2017. On March 31,September 30, 2019, we owned 317 industrial buildings consisting of approximately 63.2 million square feet, which represents approximately 80.8%73.5% of our total portfolio, that are considered our same store portfolio in the analysis below. Same store occupancy decreased approximately 0.7%1.9% to 95.5%94.6% as of March 31,September 30, 2019 compared to 96.2%96.5% as of March 31,September 30, 2018.


Comparison of the three months ended September 30, 2019 to the three months ended September 30, 2018

The following table summarizes selected operating information for our same store portfolio and our total portfolio for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018 (dollars in thousands). This table includes a reconciliation from our same store portfolio to our total portfolio by also providing information for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018 with

Net Income


Net income for our total portfolio decreasedincreased by $17.8$2.3 million or 70.6%26.1% to $7.4$11.2 million for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019, compared to $25.1$8.9 million for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2018.


Same Store Total Operating Revenue


Same store total operating revenue consists primarily of rental income consisting of (i) fixed lease payments, variable lease payments, straight-line rental income, and above and below market lease amortization from our properties (“lease income”), and (ii) other tenant billings for insurance, real estate taxes and certain other expenses (“other billings”).


For a detailed reconciliation of our same store total operating revenue to net income, see the table above.


Same store rental income, which is comprised of lease income and other billings as discussed below, increased by $3.0$0.4 million or 4.1%0.5% to $76.8$75.4 million for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 compared to $73.8$75.0 million for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2018.


Same store lease income increased by $1.3$0.2 million or 2.1%0.4% to $63.7$64.0 million for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 compared to $62.4$63.8 million for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2018. Approximately $2.4$1.7 million of the increase was attributable to rental increases due to new leases and renewals of existing tenants and approximately $0.2 million due to a net decrease in the amortization of net above market leases.tenants. This increase was partially offset by an approximately $1.3$1.5 million decrease due to a reduction of base rent due to tenants downsizing their spaces and vacancies.


Same store other billings increased by $1.7$0.2 million or 14.9% to $13.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared1.1% to $11.4 million for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 compared to $11.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in real estate taxes levied by the taxing authority and changes to lease terms where we began paying the real estate taxes and operating expenses on behalf of tenants that had previously paid its taxes and operating expenses directly to respective vendors of approximately $2.0$0.4 million. This increase was partially offset by a decrease of approximately $0.3$0.2 million related to tenant specific billings that occurred during the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 that did not recur during the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2018.


Same store other income decreased by $0.2 million or 78.4% to $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. This decrease is primarily the result of income received in 2018 for settlements or other sums received from former tenants which did not recur in 2019.

Same Store Operating Expenses


Same store operating expenses consist primarily of property operating expenses and real estate taxes and insurance.


For a detailed reconciliation of our same store operating expenses to net income, see the table above.


Total same store property operating expenses increased by $1.6$0.1 million or 11.1%0.6% to $15.5$13.8 million for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 compared to $14.0$13.7 million for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2018. This increase was primarily related to increases in real estate taxes levied by the related taxing authority and changes to lease terms where we began paying the real estate taxes on behalf of tenants that had previously paid its taxes directly to the taxing authority of approximately $1.7$0.2 million and an increase in snow removalrepairs and maintenance expense of approximately $0.4$0.3 million. These increases were partially offset by a decreasedecreases in insurance expense of approximately $0.3 million and utility expense of approximately $0.6$0.1 million.


Acquisitions and Dispositions Net Operating Income


For a detailed reconciliation of our acquisitions and dispositions NOI to net income, see the table above.


Subsequent to December 31, 2017, we acquired 5995 buildings consisting of approximately 11.919.6 million square feet (excluding four buildings that were included in the Value Add Portfolio at March 31,September 30, 2019 or transferred from the Value Add Portfolio to the Operating Portfolio after December 31, 2017), and sold 2425 buildings and two land parcels consisting of approximately 4.95.0 million square feet. For the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018, the buildings acquired after December 31, 2017 contributed approximately $13.0$20.7 million and $0.7$5.9 million to NOI, respectively. For the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018, the buildings sold after December 31, 2017 contributed approximately $(0.1) million and $3.2$2.8 million to NOI, respectively.

Refer to Note 3 in the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion regarding buildings acquired or sold.


Other Net Operating Income


Our other assets include our flex/office buildings, Value Add Portfolio, and Operating Portfolio buildings with expansions placed in service or transferred from the Value Add Portfolio to the Operating Portfolio after December 31, 2017. Other NOI also includes termination incomeadjustments from buildings in our same store portfolio.


For a detailed reconciliation of our other NOI to net income, see the table above.


At March 31,September 30, 2019, we owned nineeight flex/office buildings consisting of approximately 0.60.4 million square feet, fivefour buildings in our Value Add Portfolio consisting of approximately 1.1 million square feet, and fivesix buildings consisting of approximately 1.41.7 million square feet that were Operating Portfolio buildings with expansions placed in service or transferred from the Value Add Portfolio to the Operating Portfolio after December 31, 2017. These buildings contributed approximately $1.9$2.0 million and $1.9 million to NOI for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Additionally, there was approximately $43,000$(16,000) and $20,000$(0.3) million of termination fee incomeadjustments from certain buildings in our same store portfolio for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.


Total Other Expenses


Total other expenses consist of general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, loss on impairments, and other expenses.


Total other expenses increased $5.3$7.2 million or 10.2%13.5% for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 to $57.3$60.7 million compared to $51.9$53.5 million for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2018. This is primarily a result of an increase in loss on impairments of approximately $4.4 million related to the property in Belfast, ME that is in our flex/office building portfolio, as well as an increase in depreciation and amortization of approximately $2.3$2.6 million due to an increase in the depreciable asset base as a result of acquisitions, as well as an increase in loss on impairments of approximately $2.4 million. Additionally, general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $0.5 million due to increases in compensation and other payroll costs.net acquisitions.


Total Other Income (Expense)


Total other income (expense) consists of interest and other income, interest expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, and gain on the sales of rental property, net. Interest expense includes interest incurred during the period as well as adjustments related to amortization of financing fees and debt issuance costs, and amortization of fair market value adjustments associated with the assumption of debt.


Total other income (expense) decreased $22.8expense increased $2.9 million or 202.1%30.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 to a total other expense position of $11.5$12.4 million compared $9.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared a total other income of $11.3 million for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2018. This decreaseincrease is primarily the result of a decrease in the gain on the sales of rental property, net of approximately $21.4$1.6 million. This decreaseincrease is also attributable to an increase in interest expense of approximately $1.4 million which was primarily attributable to the funding of a newan unsecured term loanloans on July 27, 2018 and July 25, 2019 and a higher average unsecured credit facility balance during the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared the three months ended September 30, 2018.

Net Income

Net income for our total portfolio decreased by $16.2 million or 33.2% to $32.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $49.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Same Store Total Operating Revenue

Same store total operating revenue consists primarily of rental income consisting of (i) fixed lease payments, variable lease payments, straight-line rental income, and above and below market lease amortization from our properties (“lease income”), and (ii) other tenant billings for insurance, real estate taxes and certain other expenses (“other billings”).

For a detailed reconciliation of our same store total operating revenue to net income, see the table above.

Same store rental income, which is comprised of lease income and other billings as discussed below, increased by $4.2 million or 1.9% to $226.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $222.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Approximately $5.8 million of the increase was attributable to rental increases due to new leases and renewals of existing tenants and approximately $0.3 million due to a net decrease in the amortization of net above market leases. This increase was partially offset by an approximately $4.1 million decrease due to a reduction of base rent due to tenants downsizing their spaces and vacancies.

Same store other billings increased by $2.2 million or 6.6% to $35.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $33.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in real estate taxes levied by the taxing authority and changes to lease terms where we began paying the real estate taxes and operating expenses on behalf of tenants that had previously paid its taxes and operating expenses directly to respective vendors of approximately $2.4 million. This increase was partially offset by a decrease of approximately $0.2 million related to tenant specific billings that occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 that did not recur during the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Same store other income decreased by $0.4 million or 49.9% to $0.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $0.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. This decrease is primarily the result of income received in 2018 for settlements or other sums received from former tenants which did not recur in 2019.

Same Store Operating Expenses

Same store operating expenses consist primarily of property operating expenses and real estate taxes and insurance.

For a detailed reconciliation of our same store operating expenses to net income, see the table above.

Total same store operating expenses increased by $2.3 million or 5.6% to $42.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $40.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. This increase was primarily related to increases in real estate taxes levied by the related taxing authority and changes to lease terms where we began paying the real estate taxes on behalf of tenants that had previously paid its taxes directly to the taxing authority of approximately $2.8 million, an increase in snow removal and other expenses of approximately $0.5 million, and an increase in repairs and maintenance expense of approximately $0.4 million. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in insurance and utility expenses of approximately $1.4 million.

Acquisitionsand DispositionsNet Operating Income

For a detailed reconciliation of our acquisitions and dispositions NOI to net income, see the table above.

Subsequent to December 31, 2017, we acquired 95 buildings consisting of approximately 19.6 million square feet (excluding four buildings that were included in the Value Add Portfolio at September 30, 2019 or transferred from the Value Add Portfolio to the Operating Portfolio after December 31, 2017), and sold 25 buildings and two land parcels consisting of approximately 5.0 million square feet. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, the buildings acquired after December 31, 2017 contributed approximately $49.9 million and $9.0 million to NOI, respectively. For the nine months ended
40

September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, the buildings sold after December 31, 2017 contributed approximately $0.1 million and $9.8 million to NOI, respectively. Refer to Note 3 in the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion regarding buildings acquired or sold.

Other Net Operating Income

Our other assets include our flex/office buildings, Value Add Portfolio, and Operating Portfolio buildings with expansions placed in service or transferred from the Value Add Portfolio to the Operating Portfolio after December 31, 2017. Other NOI also includes termination adjustments from buildings in our same store portfolio.

For a detailed reconciliation of our other NOI to net income, see the table above.

At September 30, 2019, we owned eight flex/office buildings consisting of approximately 0.4 million square feet, four buildings in our Value Add Portfolio consisting of approximately 1.1 million square feet, and six buildings consisting of approximately 1.7 million square feet that were Operating Portfolio buildings with expansions placed in service or transferred from the Value Add Portfolio to the Operating Portfolio after December 31, 2017. These buildings contributed approximately $5.7 million and $5.4 million to NOI for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively. Additionally, there was $(0.2) million and $(0.3) million of termination adjustments from certain buildings in our same store portfolio for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively.

Total Other Expenses

Total other expenses consist of general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, loss on impairments, and other expenses.

Total other expenses increased $17.0 million or 11.0% to $171.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $154.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. This is primarily a result of an increase in depreciation and amortization of approximately $8.6 million as a result of net acquisitions that increased the depreciable asset base, as well as an increase of approximately $6.8 million in loss on impairments. General and administrative expenses increased by approximately $1.1 million primarily due to increases in compensation and other payroll costs.

Total Other Income (Expense)

Total other income (expense) consists of interest and other income, interest expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, and gain on the sales of rental property, net. Interest expense includes interest incurred during the period as well as adjustments related to amortization of financing fees and debt issuance costs, and amortization of fair market value adjustments associated with the assumption of debt.

Total other expense increased $32.5 million or 977.0% to $35.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $3.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. This increase is primarily the result of a decrease in the gain on the sales of rental property, net of approximately $29.0 million. This increase is also attributable to an increase in interest expense of approximately $3.5 million which was primarily attributable to the funding of unsecured term loans on March 28, 2018, and July 27, 2018, and July 25, 2019, and the funding of unsecured notes on June 13, 2018 during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared the nine months ended September 30, 2018.


Non-GAAP Financial Measures


In this report, we disclose funds from operations (“FFO”) and NOI, which meet the definition of “non-GAAP financial measures” as set forth in Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). As a result, we are required to include in this report a statement of why management believes that presentation of these measures provides useful information to investors.


Funds From Operations


FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of our performance, and we believe that to understand our performance further, FFO should be compared with our reported net income (loss) in accordance with GAAP, as presented in our consolidated financial statements included in this report.


41

We calculate FFO in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). FFO represents GAAP net income (loss), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable operating buildings, land sales, impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate, real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs and fair market value of debt adjustment) and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.


Management uses FFO as a supplemental performance measure because it is a widely recognized measure of the performance of REITs. FFO may be used by investors as a basis to compare our operating performance with that of other REITs.


However, because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization and captures neither the changes in the value of our buildings that result from use or market conditions nor the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the

operating performance of our buildings, all of which have real economic effects and could materially impact our results from operations, the utility of FFO as a measure of our performance is limited. In addition, other REITs may not calculate FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, and, accordingly, our FFO may not be comparable to such other REITs’ FFO. FFO should not be used as a measure of our liquidity, and is not indicative of funds available for our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends.


The following table sets forth a reconciliation of our FFO attributable to common stockholders and unit holders for the periods presented to net income, the nearest GAAP equivalent.

Net Operating Income


We consider NOI to be an appropriate supplemental performance measure to net income (loss) because we believe it helps investors and management understand the core operations of our buildings. NOI is defined as rental income, which includes billings for common area maintenance, real estate taxes and insurance, less property expenses and real estate taxes and insurance. NOI should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our financial performance since it excludes expenses which could materially impact our results of operations. Further, our NOI may not be comparable to that of other real estate companies, as they may use different methodologies for calculating NOI.

Net cash provided by operating activities increased $5.2$26.3 million to $47.2$174.9 million for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 compared to $42.0$148.6 million for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to incremental operating cash flows from property acquisitions completed after March 31,September 30, 2018, and operating performance at existing properties.

These increases were partially offset by the loss of cash flows from property dispositions completed after March 31,September 30, 2018 and fluctuations in working capital due to timing of payments and rental receipts.


Net cash used in investing activities increased $140.7$372.4 million to $176.8$765.7 million for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 compared to $36.1$393.3 million for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2018. The increased cash outflow was primarily due to the acquisition of ten46 buildings for a total cash consideration of approximately $185.4$748.0 million for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 compared to the acquisition of 636 buildings for a total cash consideration of approximately $78.8$458.4 million for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2018. The increase is also attributable to a decrease in net proceeds from the sales of rental property, net related to the disposition of 5six buildings and two land parcels during the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 for net proceeds of approximately $16.6$23.7 million, compared to the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2018 where we sold two11 buildings for net proceeds of approximately $49.6$89.4 million.


Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities increased $135.7$349.7 million to $119.4$577.5 million for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 compared to $(16.3)$227.8 million for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2018. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase of net proceeds from the sales of common stock of approximately $150.2$295.1 million and an increasea decrease of net cash inflowoutflow on our unsecured credit facility of approximately $68.0$153.5 million during the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 compared to the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2018. Additionally, the increase is also attributable to a decrease in cash used for the redemption of preferred stock of $70.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 which did not recur during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, and an increase of proceeds from unsecured term loans of approximately $25.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in proceeds from unsecured term loansnotes of approximately $75.0$175.0 million and an approximately $6.1$22.2 million increase in dividends paid during the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 compared to the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2018.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


We believe that our liquidity needs will be satisfied through cash flows generated by operations, disposition proceeds, and financing activities. Operating cash flow is primarily rental income, expense recoveries from tenants, and other income from operations and is our principal source of funds that we use to pay operating expenses, debt service, recurring capital expenditures and the distributions required to maintain our REIT qualification. We look to the capital markets (common equity, preferred equity, and debt) to primarily fund our acquisition activity. We seek to increase cash flows from our properties by maintaining quality standards for our buildings that promote high occupancy rates and permit increases in rental rates while reducing tenant turnover and controlling operating expenses. We believe that our revenue, together with proceeds from building sales and debt and equity financings, will continue to provide funds for our short-term and medium-term liquidity needs.


Our short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds to pay for operating expenses and other expenditures directly associated with our buildings, including interest expense, interest rate swap payments, scheduled principal payments on outstanding indebtedness, funding of property acquisitions under contract, general and administrative expenses, and capital expenditures for tenant improvements and leasing commissions.


Our long-term liquidity needs, in addition to recurring short-term liquidity needs as discussed above, consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for acquisitions, non-recurring capital expenditures, and scheduled debt maturities. We intend to satisfy our

long-term liquidity needs through cash flow from operations, the issuance of equity or debt securities, other borrowings, property dispositions, or, in connection with acquisitions of certain additional buildings, the issuance of common units in the Operating Partnership.
 
As of March 31,September 30, 2019, we had total immediate liquidity of approximately $561.8$622.5 million, comprised of $7.9$6.5 million of cash and cash equivalents and $553.9$616.0 million of immediate availability on our unsecured credit facility and unsecured term loans.


In addition, we require funds for future dividends to be paid to our common and preferred stockholders and unit holders in the Operating Partnership. These distributions on our common stock are voluntary (at the discretion of our board of directors), to the extent we have satisfied distribution requirements in order to maintain our REIT status for federal income tax purposes, and may be reduced or stopped if needed to fund other liquidity requirements or for other reasons. The following table below sets forthsummarizes the dividends attributable to our outstanding common stock that had a record date during the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019.

On July 25, 2019, we drew $175.0 million of the $175.0 million Unsecured Term Loan E that was entered into on July 26, 2018.

On July 12, 2019, we entered into the $200.0 million Unsecured Term Loan F. As of September 30, 2019, the interest rate on the Unsecured Term Loan F was LIBOR plus a spread of 1.00% based on the Company's debt rating, as defined in the loan agreement. Unless otherwise terminated pursuant to the loan agreement, the Unsecured Term Loan F will mature on January 12, 2025. The Unsecured Term Loan F has a feature that allows us to request an increase in the aggregate size of the unsecured term loan of up to $400.0 million, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and lender consents. The agreement includes a delayed draw feature that allows us to draw up to six advances of at least $25.0 million each until July 12, 2020. To the extent that we do not request advances of the $200.0 million of aggregate commitments by July 12, 2020, the unadvanced commitments terminate. The Unsecured Term Loan F has an unused commitment fee equal to 0.15% of its unused commitments, which began to accrue on October 10, 2019 and is due and payable monthly until the earlier of (i) the date that commitments of $200.0 million have been fully advanced, (ii) July 12, 2020, and (iii) the date that commitments of $200.0 million have been reduced to zero pursuant to the terms of the agreement. We are required to pay an annual fee of $35,000. We and certain wholly owned subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership are guarantors of the Unsecured Term Loan F. The agreement also contains financial and other covenants substantially similar to the covenants in our unsecured credit facility. As of September 30, 2019, there were no amounts outstanding under the Unsecured Term Loan F.

Our unsecured credit facility, unsecured term loans, unsecured notes, and mortgage notes are subject to ongoing compliance with a number of financial and other covenants. As of March 31,September 30, 2019, we were in compliance with the applicable financial covenants.

(1)We define Net Debt as our amounts outstanding under our unsecured credit facility, unsecured term loans, unsecured notes, and mortgage notes, less cash and cash equivalents. We define Real Estate Cost Basis as the book value of rental property and deferred leasing intangibles, exclusive of the related accumulated depreciation and amortization.

We regularly pursue new financing opportunities to ensure an appropriate balance sheet position. As a result of these dedicated efforts, we are confident in our ability to meet future debt maturities and building acquisition funding needs. We believe that our current balance sheet is in an adequate position at the date of this filing, despite possible volatility in the credit markets.


Our interest rate exposure as it relates to interest expense payments on our floating rate debt is managed through our use of interest rate swaps, which fix the rate of our long term floating rate debt. For a detailed discussion on our use of interest rate swaps, see “Interest Rate Risk” below.

assets, liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings or recognized in other comprehensive income (loss), which is a component of equity. Derivatives that are not designated as hedges must be adjusted to fair value and the changes in fair value must be reflected as income or expense.


We have established criteria for suitable counterparties in relation to various specific types of risk. We only use counterparties that have a credit rating of no lower than investment grade at swap inception from Moody’s Investor Services, Standard & Poor’s, or Fitch Ratings or other nationally recognized rating agencies.

The swaps outlined in the above table were all designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, and all are valued as Level 2 financial instruments. Level 2 financial instruments are defined as significant other observable inputs. As of March 31,September 30, 2019, the fair value of 18eight of our interest rate swaps were in an asset position of approximately $5.2$0.5 million and the fair value of seven21 of our interest rate swaps were in a liability position of approximately $7.1$24.8 million, including any adjustment for nonperformance risk related to these agreements.


As of March 31,September 30, 2019, we had $715.5$853.0 million of variable rate debt. As of March 31,September 30, 2019, all of our outstanding variable rate debt, with the exception of our unsecured credit facility, was fixed with interest rate swaps through maturity. To the extent interest rates increase, interest costs on our floating rate debt not fixed with interest rate swaps will increase, which could adversely affect our cash flow and our ability to pay principal and interest on our debt and our ability to make distributions to our security holders. From time to time, we may enter into interest rate swap agreements and other interest rate hedging contracts, including swaps, caps and floors. In addition, an increase in interest rates could decrease the amounts third parties are willing to pay for our assets, thereby limiting our ability to change our portfolio promptly in response to changes in economic or other conditions.

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements


As of March 31,September 30, 2019, we had letters of credit related to development projects and certain other agreements of approximately $5.6$6.0 million and a development commitment related to a building expansion under a tenant lease of approximately $9.8$3.1 million. As of March 31,September 30, 2019, we had no other material off-balance sheet arrangements.


Item 3.  Quantitativeand Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk


Our future income, cash flows and fair values relevant to financial instruments are dependent upon prevailing market interest rates. Market risk refers to the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. The primary market risk we are exposed to is interest rate risk.  We have used derivative financial instruments to manage, or hedge, interest rate risks related to our borrowings, primarily through interest rate swaps.


As of March 31,September 30, 2019, we had $715.5$853.0 million of variable rate debt outstanding. As of March 31,September 30, 2019, all of our outstanding variable rate debt, with the exception of $115.5$78.0 million outstanding under our unsecured credit facility, was fixed with interest rate swaps. To the extent we undertake additional variable rate indebtedness, if interest rates increase, then so will the interest costs

on our unhedged variable rate debt, which could adversely affect our cash flow and our ability to pay principal and interest on our debt and our ability to make distributions to our security holders. Further, rising interest rates could limit our ability to refinance existing debt when it matures or significantly increase our future interest expense. From time to time, we enter into interest rate swap agreements and other interest rate hedging contracts, including swaps, caps and floors. While these agreements are intended to lessen the impact of rising interest rates on us, they also expose us to the risk that the other parties to the agreements will not perform, we could incur significant costs associated with the settlement of the agreements, the agreements will be unenforceable and the underlying transactions will fail to qualify as highly-effective cash flow hedges under GAAP. In addition, an increase in interest rates could decrease the amounts third parties are willing to pay for our assets, thereby limiting our ability to change our portfolio promptly in response to changes in economic or other conditions. If interest rates increased by 100 basispoints and assuming we had an outstanding balance of $115.5$78.0 million on our unsecured credit facility (the portion outstanding at March 31,September 30, 2019 not fixed by interest rate swaps) for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019, our interest expense would have increased by approximately $0.3$0.6 million for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019.
