Preferred Apartment Communities, Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations
Three-month period ended March 31, 2013
1. Basis of Presentation
Preferred Apartment Communities, Inc., or the Company, was formed as a Maryland corporation on September 18, 2009, and has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, effective with its tax year ended December 31, 2011. The Company was formed primarily to acquire and operate multifamily properties in select targeted markets throughout the United States. As part of its business strategy, the Company may enter into forward purchase contracts or purchase options for to-be-built multifamily communities and may make mezzanine loans, provide deposit arrangements, or provide performance assurances, as may be necessary or appropriate, in connection with the construction of multifamily communities and other properties. As a secondary strategy, the Company also may acquire or originate senior mortgage loans, subordinate loans or mezzanine debt secured by interests in multifamily properties, membership or partnership interests in multifamily properties and other multifamily related assets and invest not more than 10% of its total assets in other real estate related investments, as determined by its Manager (as defined below) as appropriate for the Company. The Company is externally managed and advised by Preferred Apartment Advisors, LLC, or its Manager, a Delaware limited liability company and related party.
On January 17, 2013, the Company issued 40,000 shares of its Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, or Series B Preferred Stock, at a purchase price of $1,000 per share through a private placement transaction. The net proceeds totaled approximately $37.6 million after commissions. On May 9, 2013, the common stockholders approved the issuance of Common Stock upon the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock. As a result of such approval, the Series B Preferred Stock will be converted into 5,714,274 shares of Common Stock on May 16, 2013.The Company filed a resale registration statement on April 15, 2013 for the purpose of registering the resale of the underlying shares of Common Stock into which the shares of Series B Preferred Stock are convertible following stockholder approval. The Series B Preferred Stock pays dividends at the same rate as those declared on our Common Stock, on an as-converted basis.
On January 23, 2013, the Company acquired three multifamily communities: McNeil Ranch, a 192 unit community in Austin, Texas, for approximately $21.0 million; Lake Cameron, a 328 unit community in Raleigh, North Carolina, for approximately $30.5 million; and Ashford Park, a 408 unit community in Atlanta, Georgia for approximately $39.6 million. These three communities are referred to collectively as the Acquired Properties.
The attached Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations includes four columns. The first column labeled "PAC REIT Historical" represents the actual results of operations of the Company for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, including the actual results of the acquired properties for the period beginning with the acquisition date of January 23, 2013, through March 31, 2013. The second column, entitled "Acquired Properties" on the Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations represents the actual revenues and expenses of the three newly-acquired properties for the period beginning January 1, 2013, through the day preceding the acquisition date. The "Other" column on the Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations represents the pro forma adjustments required to reflect expense adjustments to reflect the debt financing, depreciation on the properties, amortization of the debt financing, additional management fees that would have been due pursuant to the third amended and restated management agreement, or Management Agreement, and the accrual of dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock Offering.
The results presented on the Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations assume the Acquired Properties were acquired effective January 1, 2012 and present pro forma operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013.
2. Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations
The adjustments to the Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013 are as follows:
(AA) Effective with the purchase of the three properties by the Company, a property management fee of 4% of monthly gross rental income is due to Preferred Apartment Advisors, LLC, or the Manager, as stipulated in the
F-3
Preferred Apartment Communities, Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations
Three-month period ended March 31, 2013
Management Agreement. The pro forma adjustment reflects the adjustment for this additional cost to the properties for the period of January 1, 2013 through January 22, 2013.
(BB) Reflected in the pro forma adjustment is (i) the Company's estimate of the depreciation charges that would have been incurred by the properties for the period of January 1, 2013 through January 22, 2013, which totaled $273,964 and (ii) the removal of historical amortization expense related to acquired intangible assets that were fully amortized on a pro forma basis during 2012, which totaled $2,382,285. The pro forma depreciation adjustment assumes a straight-line depreciation method using a 30 year life for buildings and five to ten years for acquired building improvements and furniture fixtures and equipment.
(CC) The acquisition cost adjustment is made in order to remove the actual acquisition costs related to the property acquisitions reflected in the historical financial statements, since they are nonrecurring costs of the specific acquisitions and are assumed to have been incurred in the three-month period ended March 31, 2012, the pro forma period of acquisition.
(DD) The estimated asset management fee is based on 0.5% of the total value of the Company's assets based on their adjusted cost before reduction for depreciation, amortization, impairment charges and cumulative acquisition costs charged to expense in accordance with GAAP (adjusted cost will include the purchase price, acquisition expenses, capital expenditures and other customarily capitalized costs). In calculating the estimated asset management fee, the Company used the March 31, 2013 balance sheet, as adjusted, plus the pro forma acquisition costs incurred on the Acquired Properties. Total annual asset management fees are estimated to be approximately $1,193,000. In addition, a similar adjustment is included for general and administrative expense fees, recorded as 2% of gross revenues of the properties for the portion of 2013 preceding the acquisition date.
(EE) Reflected in the pro forma adjustment is the Company's estimate of interest expense on the debt financings for the three newly-acquired properties, based upon the actual fixed 3.13% interest rate that was negotiated when the loans closed on January 24, 2013, for the period of January 1, 2013 through January 22, 2013. The interest rates negotiated result in an annual interest expense of $1,848,108.
(FF) On January 3, 2013, the 106,988 outstanding Class B Units for 2012 became fully vested and earned and automatically converted to Class A Units of the Operating Partnership. As Class A Units, they became entitled to pro-rata distributions of profit and allocations of loss as non-controlling interests of the Operating Partnership. The weighted-average percentage of ownership by the non-controlling interests was approximately 1.93% for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013. This adjustment reflects the pro-rata adjustment to the amount of net income (loss) attributable to the non-controlling interests.
(GG) This adjustment represents an accrual of dividends payable on the Series B Preferred Stock, at the same rate and frequency as Common Stock dividends and on an as-converted basis, for the period of January 1, 2013 through January 22, 2013. For pro forma purposes, the Series B Preferred Stock was assumed to have been issued on January 1, 2012 to finance the acquisition of the acquired properties, and remained outstanding as of March 31, 2013. The adjustment presented for dividends to preferred stockholders is calculated based upon the $.145 per share Common Stock dividend actually declared.
