Second Quarter 2015 Financial Results
AFFO for the second quarter of 2015 increased by 288% to $3.1 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, as compared to $0.8 million, or $0.13 per share in the prior year period. The increase in AFFO from the prior year period was driven primarily by improvements in property NOI of $1.7 million, equity in income of unconsolidated real estate joint ventures of $1.2 million caused by expanding the size of our portfolio, the payment of the base management fee of $0.7 million in LTIP Units, and was offset by higher interest expense of $0.7 million.
Net loss attributable to common stockholders for the second quarter of 2015 improved to $0.6 million, as compared to a net loss of $4.5 million in the prior year period. The decrease in the net loss for the 2015 second quarter was partially derived from increases in property NOI of $1.7 million, equity in income of unconsolidated real estate joint ventures of $1.2 million, and decreases in acquisition expenses of $2.9 million, offset by increases of interest expense of $0.7 million, management fees of $0.5 million and loss attributable to noncontrolling interest of $0.7 million.

Dividend Details
On July 10, 2015, our board of directors authorized, and we declared, monthly dividends for the third quarter of 2015 equal to a quarterly rate of $0.29 per share on our Class A common stock and $0.29 per share on our Class B common stock, payable to the stockholders of record as of July 25, 2015, August 25, 2015 and September 25, 2015, which will be paid in cash on August 5, 2015, September 5, 2015 and October 5, 2015, respectively. Holders of OP 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.
The declared dividends equal a monthly dividend on the Class A common stock and the Class B common stock as follows: $0.096667 per share for the dividend paid to stockholders of record as of July 25, 2015 and August 25, 2015, and, $0.096666 per share for the dividend paid to stockholders of record as of September 25, 2015. A portion of each dividend may constitute a return of capital for tax purposes. There is no assurance that we will continue to declare dividends or at this rate.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The foregoing supplemental financial data includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that we believe are helpful in understanding our business, as further described below. Our definition and calculation of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from those of other REITs, and may, therefore, not be comparable.
Funds from Operations and Adjusted Funds from Operations
Funds from operations (“FFO”) 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”), definition, as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of 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 addition to FFO, we use adjusted funds from operations (“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. To calculate AFFO, we further adjust FFO by adding back certain items that are not added to net income in NAREIT's definition of FFO, such as acquisition expenses, 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 realized gains or losses on our real estate investments).
Bluerock Residential Growth REIT, Inc. |
Second Quarter Earnings |
Our calculation of AFFO differs from the methodology used for calculating AFFO by certain other REITs and, accordingly, our AFFO may not be comparable to AFFO reported by other REITs. Our management utilizes FFO and AFFO as measures of our operating performance after adjustment for certain non-cash items, such as depreciation and amortization expenses, and acquisition expenses 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, AFFO and other supplemental performance measures are defined in various ways throughout the REIT industry, we also believe that FFO and AFFO 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 AFFO is equivalent to net income or cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, FFO and AFFO 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 AFFO should be considered as an alternative to net income 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 eight additional properties subsequent to June 30, 2014 and sold three properties that were owned during the quarter ended June 30, 2014. The results presented in the table below are not directly comparable and should not be considered an indication of our future operating performance (unaudited and dollars in thousands, except share and per share data).

(2) Pro forma AFFO for the three months ended June 30, 2015 assumes the following pipeline transactions had occurred on April 1, 2015: (i) investment of approximately $8.7 million in the second funding of the Alexan Southside Place in Houston, Texas; (ii) investment of approximately $1.3 million to increase our ownership in our existing Fox Hill and Park & Kingston properties; (iii) investment of approximately $15.0 million in convertible preferred equity in Cheshire Bridge, a Class A asset in Atlanta, Georgia; (iv) investment of approximately $26.0 million in the acquisition of two Class A assets our Sponsor currently has under LOI in North Carolina; and (v) investment of approximately $10.1 million in convertible preferred equity in a development asset our Sponsor currently has under LOI in a target Florida market. Pro forma AFFO does not include the impact of the May 2015 Follow-On Offering, i.e. it does not include the benefit from the investment of proceeds from the follow-on offering or the impact of the additional share issuance. The pro forma AFFO guidance is being presented solely for the purpose of illustrating the potential impact of these pipeline transactions as if they had occurred at April 1, 2015, based on information currently available to management. The Company is providing no assurances that any of the above transactions will close, and the failure of any of these transactions to close would significantly impact pro forma guidance. The actual timing of these investments, if and when made, will vary materially from the assumed timing reflected in the pro forma guidance, and actual quarterly results will differ significantly from the pro forma guidance shown above.
Earnings Before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA")
EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. We consider EBITDA to be an appropriate supplemental measure of our performance because it eliminates depreciation, income taxes, interest and non-recurring items, which permits investors to view income from operations unclouded by non-cash items such as depreciation, amortization, the cost of debt or non-recurring items.

Recurring Capital Expenditures
We define recurring capital expenditures as expenditures that are incurred at every property and exclude development, investment, revenue enhancing and non- recurring capital expenditures.
Non-Recurring Capital Expenditures
We define non-recurring capital expenditures as expenditures for significant projects that upgrade units or common areas and projects that are revenue enhancing.
Same Store Properties
Same store properties are conventional multifamily residential apartments which were owned and operational for the entire periods presented, including each comparative period.
Property Net Operating Income ("Property NOI")
We believe that net operating income, or 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. 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 because NOI 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 alternative measure of our financial performance. The following table reflects same store and non-same store contributions to consolidated NOI together with a reconciliation of NOI to net loss as computed in accordance with GAAP for the periods presented (unaudited and amounts in thousands):

(3) Pro forma AFFO for the three months ended June 30, 2015 assumes the following pipeline transactions had occurred on April 1, 2015: (i) investment of approximately $8.7 million in the second funding of the Alexan Southside Place in Houston, Texas; (ii) investment of approximately $1.3 million to increase our ownership in our existing Fox Hill and Park & Kingston properties; (iii) investment of approximately $15.0 million in convertible preferred equity in Cheshire Bridge, a Class A asset in Atlanta, Georgia; (iv) investment of approximately $26.0 million in the acquisition of two Class A assets our Sponsor currently has under LOI in North Carolina; and (v) investment of approximately $10.1 million in convertible preferred equity in a development asset our Sponsor currently has under LOI in a target Florida market. Pro forma AFFO does not include the impact of the May 2015 Follow-On Offering, i.e. it does not include the benefit from the investment of proceeds from the follow-on offering or the impact of the additional share issuance. The pro forma AFFO guidance is being presented solely for the purpose of illustrating the potential impact of these pipeline transactions as if they had occurred at April 1, 2015, based on information currently available to management. The Company is providing no assurances that any of the above transactions will close, and the failure of any of these transactions to close would significantly impact pro forma guidance. The actual timing of these investments, if and when made, will vary materially from the assumed timing reflected in the pro forma guidance, and actual quarterly results will differ significantly from the pro forma guidance shown above.

(1) The real estate depreciation and amortization amount includes our share of consolidated real estate-related depreciation and amortization of intangibles, less amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests, and our similar estimated share of unconsolidated depreciation and amortization, which is included in earnings of our unconsolidated real estate joint venture investments.
(2) See page 27 for the Company's definitions of these non-GAAP measurements. Individual line items included in FFO and AFFO calculations include results from discontinued operations where applicable.
(3) Total weighted average shares for the quarter, including OP units of 282,759 was 16,635,968. AFFO related to the OP units is excluded from the calculation above. When including both, AFFO attributable to OP units and 282,759 of OP units in the weighted average share count, in the above calculation, AFFO is $0.13 per share.
(4) Pro forma AFFO for the three months ended June 30, 2015 assumes the following pipeline transactions had occurred on April 1, 2015: (i) investment of approximately $8.7 million in the second funding of the Alexan Southside Place in Houston, Texas; (ii) investment of approximately $1.3 million to increase our ownership in our existing Fox Hill and Park & Kingston properties; (iii) investment of approximately $15.0 million in convertible preferred equity in Cheshire Bridge, a Class A asset in Atlanta, Georgia; (iv) investment of approximately $26.0 million in the acquisition of two Class A assets our Sponsor currently has under LOI in North Carolina; and (v) investment of approximately $10.1 million in convertible preferred equity in a development asset our Sponsor currently has under LOI in a target Florida market. Pro forma AFFO does not include the impact of the May 2015 Follow-On Offering, i.e. it does not include the benefit from the investment of proceeds from the follow-on offering or the impact of the additional share issuance. The pro forma AFFO guidance is being presented solely for the purpose of illustrating the potential impact of these pipeline transactions as if they had occurred at April 1, 2015, based on information currently available to management. The Company is providing no assurances that any of the above transactions will close, and the failure of any of these transactions to close would significantly impact pro forma guidance. The actual timing of these investments, if and when made, will vary materially from the assumed timing reflected in the pro forma guidance, and actual quarterly results will differ significantly from the pro forma guidance shown above.

(7) Pro forma guidance assumes the following pipeline transactions had occurred on July 1, 2015: (i) investment of approximately $21 million in the acquisition of two Class A assets the Company has under contract in North Carolina, (ii) investment of approximately $14 million in convertible preferred equity in a development asset the Company has under binding LOI in a target Florida market; (iii) investment of approximately $16 million in convertible preferred equity in a development asset our Sponsor entity has under binding LOI in a target North Carolina market; (iv) investment of approximately $13 million in a Class A asset the Company has under contract in Florida; and (v) investment of approximately $30 million in the acquisition of two Class A assets our Sponsor entity has under binding LOI in Texas. The pro forma guidance is being presented solely for purposes of illustrating the potential impact of these pipeline transactions as if they had occurred at July 1, 2015, based on information currently available to management. The Company is providing no assurances that any of the above transactions will close, and the failure of any of these transactions to close would significantly impact pro forma guidance. The actual timing of these investments, if and when made, will vary materially from the assumed timing reflected in the pro forma guidance, and actual quarterly results will differ significantly from the pro forma guidance shown above.

Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures |
The foregoing supplemental financial data includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that we believe are helpful in understanding our business, as further described below. Our definition and calculation of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from those of other REITs, and may, therefore, not be comparable.
Funds from Operations and Adjusted Funds from Operations
Funds from operations (“FFO”), 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”), definition, as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of 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 addition to FFO, we use adjusted funds from operations (“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. To calculate AFFO, we further adjust FFO by adding back certain items that are not added to net income in NAREIT's definition of FFO, such as acquisition expenses, 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 realized gains or losses on our real estate investments).
Our calculation of AFFO differs from the methodology used for calculating AFFO by certain other REITs and, accordingly, our AFFO may not be comparable to AFFO reported by other REITs. Our management utilizes FFO and AFFO as measures of our operating performance after adjustment for certain non-cash items, such as depreciation and amortization expenses, and acquisition expenses 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, AFFO and other supplemental performance measures are defined in various ways throughout the REIT industry, we also believe that FFO and AFFO 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 AFFO is equivalent to net income or cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, FFO and AFFO 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 AFFO should be considered as an alternative to net income 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 eight additional properties and had three dispositions that were owned during the quarter ended June 30, 2014. The results presented in the table below are not directly comparable and should not be considered an indication of our future operating performance (unaudited and dollars in thousands, except share and per share data).
Recurring Capital Expenditures
We define recurring capital expenditures as expenditures that are incurred at every property and exclude development, investment, revenue enhancing and non-recurring capital expenditures.
Non-Recurring Capital Expenditures
We define non-recurring capital expenditures as expenditures for significant projects that upgrade units or common areas and projects that are revenue enhancing.
Same Store Properties
Same store properties are conventional multifamily residential apartments which were owned and operational for the entire periods presented.

Earnings Before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA")
EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. We consider EBITDA to be an appropriate supplemental measure of our performance because it eliminates depreciation, income taxes, interest and non-recurring items, which permits investors to view income from operations unclouded by non-cash items such as depreciation, amortization, the cost of debt or non-recurring items. Below is a reconciliation of net (loss) income applicable to common shares to EBITDA.
