at C/O and opened for operation two joint venture development properties for a total investment of $133.4 million. These properties are located in New York (3) and Texas (2).
As of September 30, 2016, the Company had three facilities under contract to purchase at C/O for a total acquisition price of $43.3 million. The properties are located in Florida (1) and Illinois (2). The purchase of these facilities is expected to occur by the fourth quarter of 2017. These acquisitions are subject to due diligence and other customary closing conditions, and no assurance can be provided that these acquisitions will be completed on the terms described, or at all.
As of September 30, 2016, the Company had five joint venture development properties and two wholly owned projects under development. The Company anticipates investing a total of $303.2 million related to these projects and had invested $140.5 million of that total as of September 30, 2016. These facilities are located in Florida (1), New York (5), and Washington, D.C. (1). The seven projects are expected to open at various times between the fourth quarter of 2016 and the fourth quarter of 2018.
Third-Party Management
As of September 30, 2016, the Company’s third-party management program included 291 facilities totaling 18.1 million square feet. During the quarter ended September 30, 2016, the Company added 17 properties to its third-party management program. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company added 82 properties to its third-party management program.
Same-Store Results
The Company’s same-store portfolio at September 30, 2016 included 407 facilities containing approximately 27.8 million rentable square feet, or approximately 85.6% of the aggregate rentable square feet of the Company’s 471 owned facilities. These same-store facilities represented approximately 91.0% of property net operating income for the quarter ended September 30, 2016.
Same-store physical occupancy at period end for the third quarter of 2016 was 93.1%, compared with 92.7% for the same quarter of last year. Same-store revenues for the third quarter of 2016 increased 6.2%, and same-store operating expenses decreased 0.9% from the same quarter in 2015 primarily due to lower property insurance and utility costs in 2016. Same-store net operating income increased 9.3%, as compared with the same period in 2015.
Operating Results
As of September 30, 2016, the Company’s total owned portfolio included 471 properties containing 32.5 million rentable square feet and had a physical occupancy of 90.9%.
Revenues increased $16.1 million and property operating expenses increased $2.5 million in the third quarter of 2016, as compared with the same period in 2015. Increases in revenues were primarily attributable to increased net effective rents and occupancy levels in the same-store portfolio and revenues generated from property acquisitions. Increases in property operating expenses were primarily attributable to a $2.9 million increase in expenses associated with newly acquired or recently opened facilities offset by lower year-over-year property insurance and utility costs in the same-store portfolio.
Interest expense increased from $10.4 million during the three months ended September 30, 2015 to $12.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2016, an increase of $2.4 million. The increase is
|
Third Quarter 2016 |
| Page 2 |
attributable to a higher amount of outstanding debt during the 2016 period. To fund a portion of the Company’s growth, the average debt balance during the three months ended September 30, 2016 increased approximately $281.4 million from the same period in 2015 from $1.2 billion to $1.5 billion.
The Company reported net income attributable to the Company’s common shareholders of $23.4 million, or $0.13 per common share, in the third quarter of 2016, compared with net income attributable to the Company’s common shareholders of $16.9 million, or $0.10 per common share, in the third quarter of 2015.
Financing Activity
On August 8, 2016, the Company issued $300 million of 3.125% unsecured senior notes due September 1, 2026. The net proceeds from the offering were used to repay outstanding indebtedness under the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility and for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including funding a portion of the Company’s investment activity.
On September 2, 2016, the Company announced that it will redeem all of the 3.1 million outstanding shares of its 7.75% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares (“Preferred Shares”) with a par value of $77.5 million on November 2, 2016. The Preferred Shares will be redeemed at a redemption price of $25.00 per share, plus accumulated and unpaid dividends up to and including the redemption date of $0.17374 per share. In connection with the redemption of the Preferred Shares, in accordance with EITF D-42, the Company expects to recognize a charge of approximately $2.8 million in the fourth quarter related to excess redemption costs over the original net issuance proceeds.
During the quarter, the Company sold 1.6 million common shares of beneficial interest through its at-the-market equity program at an average sales price of $30.26 per share, resulting in net proceeds of $47.5 million, after deducting offering costs. As of September 30, 2016, the Company had 5.8 million shares available for issuance under the existing equity distribution agreements.
Quarterly Dividend
On August 2, 2016, the Company declared a dividend of $0.21 per common share. The dividend was paid on October 17, 2016 to common shareholders of record on October 3, 2016.
Also on August 2, 2016, the Company declared a dividend of $0.484375 for the 7.75% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares. The dividend was paid on October 17, 2016 to holders of record on October 3, 2016.
2016 Financial Outlook
“We are increasing our full-year 2016 guidance for same-store NOI and FFO per share to reflect the Company’s strong operating performance to date,” commented Chief Financial Officer Tim Martin. “In addition to the improved outlook for same-store results, our updated guidance also reflects the impact of additional investment activity, the completion of our fourth unsecured senior notes offering, the upcoming redemption of our outstanding Preferred Shares, and our equity capital raising activity year-to-date.”
The Company is adjusting its previously issued estimates as well as underlying assumptions, and now expects that its fully diluted FFO per share, as adjusted, for 2016 will be between $1.43 and $1.44 (previously between $1.40 and $1.44). The Company’s estimates are based on the following key operating assumptions:
|
Third Quarter 2016 |
| Page 3 |
| · | | For 2016, a same-store pool consisting of 407 assets totaling 27.8 million square feet |
| · | | Same-store net operating income (“NOI”) growth of 9.75% to 10.25% over 2015 (previously 9.5% to 10.25%), driven by revenue growth of 6.75% to 7.25% (unchanged) and expense growth of 0.0% to 0.75% (previously 0.5% to 1.5%) |
| · | | General and administrative expenses of approximately $31.5 million to $32.5 million (previously $31.0 million to $32.0 million) |
Key investment and financing assumptions include:
| · | | Impact of development activity: |
| o | | Four new facilities opened in 2015 for a total investment of $65.1 million. |
| o | | Two new joint venture development facilities and two new wholly owned development facilities are expected to open in 2016 for a total investment of $98.8 million, of which two properties have opened year to date for $64.0 million. |
| o | | Three new facilities acquired at C/O in 2016 for a total investment of $69.4 million. |
| o | | Approximately $0.03 per share of dilution in 2016 related to development activity. |
| · | | Impact of acquisition activity: |
| o | | Acquired 21 facilities for $281.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and one additional property was acquired subsequent to quarter-end for $13.3 million. |
| · | | Impact of financing activity: |
| o | | Funding 2016 debt maturities and our acquisition and development commitments with long-term capital, with specific impact to 2016 earnings dependent upon the amount, timing, cost and form of capital we raise. |
Due to uncertainty related to the timing and terms of transactions, the impact of any potential future speculative investment activity not contemplated above, is excluded from guidance. For 2016, the Company is targeting $325 million to $350 million of acquisitions (previously between $300 million and $350 million), excluding contracts related to joint venture development or purchase at completion of construction and issuance of C/O investments discussed above.

About CubeSmart
CubeSmart is a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust. The Company's self-storage facilities are designed to offer affordable, easily accessible and secure storage space for residential and commercial customers. According to the 2016 Self-Storage Almanac, CubeSmart is one of the top four owners and operators of self-storage facilities in the United States.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Funds from operations (“FFO”) is a widely used performance measure for real estate companies and is provided here as a supplemental measure of operating performance. The April 2002 National Policy Bulletin of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (the “White Paper”), as amended, defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of real estate and related impairment charges, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.
Management uses FFO as a key performance indicator in evaluating the operations of the Company's facilities. Given the nature of its business as a real estate owner and operator, the Company considers FFO a key measure of its operating performance that is not specifically defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The Company believes that FFO is useful to management and investors as a starting point in measuring its operational performance because FFO excludes various items included in net income that do not relate to or are not indicative of its operating performance such as gains (or losses) from sales of real estate, gains from remeasurement of investments in real estate ventures, impairments of depreciable assets, and depreciation, which can make periodic and peer analyses of operating performance more difficult. The Company’s computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs or real estate companies.
FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of the Company’s performance. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities
|
Third Quarter 2016 |
| Page 5 |
determined in accordance with GAAP and is not a measure of liquidity or an indicator of the Company’s ability to make cash distributions. The Company believes that to further understand its performance, FFO should be compared with its reported net income and considered in addition to cash flows computed in accordance with GAAP, as presented in its Consolidated Financial Statements.
FFO, as adjusted represents FFO as defined above, excluding the effects of acquisition related costs, gains or losses from early extinguishment of debt, and other non-recurring items, which the Company believes are not indicative of the Company’s operating results.
The Company defines net operating income, which it refers to as “NOI,” as total continuing revenues less continuing property operating expenses. NOI also can be calculated by adding back to net income (loss): interest expense on loans, loan procurement amortization expense, loan procurement amortization expense – early repayment of debt, acquisition related costs, equity in losses of real estate ventures, other expense, depreciation and amortization expense, general and administrative expense, and deducting from net income (loss): gains from sale of real estate, net, other income, gains from remeasurement of investments in real estate ventures and interest income. NOI is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP.
Management uses NOI as a measure of operating performance at each of its facilities, and for all of its facilities in the aggregate. NOI should not be considered as a substitute for operating income, net income, cash flows provided by operating, investing and financing activities, or other income statement or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP.
