Sales Activity
In the core retail colocation space, CoreSite signed sales representing $6.6 million of GAAP annualized rent for the quarter, its highest quarterly core retail colocation sales in ten quarters. CoreSite’s core retail colocation sales included solid pricing, continued expansion with strategic customers and ongoing acquisition of new logos. Scale colocation leasing continued to be impacted by high occupancies, resulting in constrained capacity for large blocks of contiguous space in certain markets. The Company continues to make solid progress on constructing new data center facilities, and believes its new capacity will strengthen its future sales opportunities, including for scale leasing.
On April 15th, the Company pre-leased Phases 1 and 2 of its SV8 facility, comprised of approximately 108,000 NRSF. SV8 Phase 1 is currently under construction and on track for completion in late Q3 2019, and Phase 2 has been accelerated and is now expected to be completed in late Q4 2019.
Development Activity
CoreSite expects 2019 to be a positive transition year, entering the year with leasable capacity at a lower level compared to historical norms, and plans to end 2019 with leasable capacity, plus quickly developable incremental capacity, at the higher levels the Company experienced in previous years.
As of March 31, 2019, including the accelerated development at SV8, CoreSite had a total of approximately 428,000 NRSF of turn-key data center capacity under construction, with $261.7 million incurred to date of the $671.2 million of total estimated costs, as detailed below. Property development highlights include –
| o | | CH2 in Chicago, began Phase 1 construction for 56,000 NRSF of a planned 169,000 NRSF project |
| o | | NY2 in the New York area, began Phase 3 construction for 35,000 NRSF data center expansion |
| o | | BO1 in Boston, began construction on a 20,000 NRSF data center expansion |
| o | | SV8 in Santa Clara, executed pre-leasing that accelerated development of remaining phases |

CoreSite’s ongoing development and operational position includes --

Other Financial Results
CoreSite’s $138.9 million of operating revenues for the first quarter included $117.9 million of rental, power and related revenue, $18.4 million of interconnection revenue and $2.6 million of office, light-industrial and other revenue. Net Income was $25.9 million for the first quarter, or $0.54 attributable to each common diluted share.
As forecasted for the first quarter, CoreSite’s results reflect higher than normal churn and interest and operating expense associated with recently completed developments now in lease up.
Balance Sheet, Financing and Liquidity
On April 17th, the Company’s Operating Partnership entered into a note purchase agreement pursuant to which the Operating Partnership agreed to issue and sell an aggregate principal amount of $200 million of 4.11% Series A Senior Notes due April 17, 2026, and $200 million of 4.31% Series B Senior Notes due April 17, 2029. An initial aggregate principal amount of $200 million of the Series A Notes and $125 million of the Series B Notes were issued on April 17, 2019. The Company expects the Operating Partnership to issue $75 million in aggregate principal amount of the Series B Notes prior to July 17, 2019.
The Operating Partnership used the proceeds from the Notes to pay down outstanding amounts on the revolving portion of its senior unsecured credit facilities, and plans to use the remainder for general corporate purposes. Including the repayment of all outstanding amounts on the revolving credit facility subsequent to March 31, CoreSite has the ability to borrow $445.1 million under the revolving credit facility. CoreSite expects to use its liquidity of $522 million, including $445 million available under the revolving credit facility, $75 million of expected additional debt proceeds, and $2 million in cash, primarily to fund the $409 million of remaining current development pipeline costs.
Financial Guidance
The Company’s outlook is based on current economic conditions, internal assumptions about its customer base, and the supply and demand dynamics of the markets in which it operates. The guidance does not include the impact of any future financing, investment or disposition activities, beyond what has already been disclosed.
The Company reiterates its net income and FFO guidance for 2019 including:
| · | | Net income attributed to common shares in a range of $2.15 to $2.25, and |
| · | | FFO per common diluted share and unit in the range of $5.21 to $5.31 |
| · | | The difference between net income and FFO represents real estate depreciation and amortization. |
Due to a recent customer development and expected bankruptcy, CoreSite expects the customer to vacate its deployment in the third quarter and provide payments for utilization of the data center room and termination of the current license in August. As a result, annual churn guidance is revised to:
In conjunction with the pre-leasing at SV8 and acceleration of Phase 2 and Phase 3 development, CoreSite has revised its 2019 capital expenditure guidance, including:
| · | | Data center expansion capital – to a revised range of $405 million to $465 million, and |
| · | | Total capital expenditures – to a revised range of $425 million to $500 million |
For further detail on the Company’s 2019 guidance, including operating revenues, Adjusted EBITDA, depreciation and amortization and capital expenditures, along with guidance drivers, please see page 23 of CoreSite’s Supplemental Information.

| (1) | | Number of leases represents each agreement with a customer; a lease agreement could include multiple spaces and a customer could have multiple leases. |
| (2) | | During Q2 2017, we signed a customer lease that commenced in Q1 2018, which included contractual payments to reserve dedicated expansion space. The contractual reservation payments were included within GAAP annualized rent, but were excluded in calculating the GAAP annualized rent per leased NRSF rate. During Q2 2018, the customer exercised its option to expand into the reserved expansion space. The Q2 2018 GAAP annualized rent signed includes only the incremental contractual payments; however, the rent per leased NRSF rate includes the entire GAAP annualized rent amount. |
| (3) | | Subsequent to March 31, 2019, we pre-leased 100% of Phases 1 and 2 at SV8, comprised of approximately 108,000 NRSF, half of the NRSF commencing late in the third quarter of 2019 and the remaining half commencing late in the fourth quarter of 2019. |

| (1) | | Subsequent to March 31, 2019, we pre-leased 100% of Phases 1 and 2 at SV8, comprised of approximately 108,000 NRSF, half of the NRSF commencing late in the third quarter of 2019 and the remaining half commencing late in the fourth quarter of 2019. |
| (2) | | On April 12, 2019, we acquired a 3.8-acre land parcel with a single-story office building located adjacent to our Santa Clara campus. We expect to develop an approximately 200,000 NRSF turn-key data center building on the acquired land parcel, which we refer to as SV9, as the existing office tenants vacate upon expiration of their leases and upon receipt of the necessary entitlements. We have included SV9 within our held for development NRSF in the table above. |
| (3) | | As part of VA3 Phase 1B, we will build the shell of an 80,000 NRSF, 12 megawatt building, and a 77,000 NRSF centralized infrastructure building which will serve Phases 1 and 2 of the VA3 property. The centralized infrastructure building represents approximately $24 million of the estimated Phase 1B cost. The full construction of the 12 megawatt TKD building (Phases 1B and 1C) will cost approximately $1,495 per NRSF. |
| (4) | | In addition to new development and incremental capacity in existing core and shell buildings, we have land adjacent to our NY2 facility, in the form of an existing parking lot. By utilizing this land, we believe we can build approximately 100,000 NRSF of data center capacity in Secaucus, New Jersey, upon receipt of necessary entitlements. |
| (5) | | We have an estimated $14.6 million in deferred expansion capital under construction at multiple properties as of March 31, 2019, of which $8.1 million has been incurred to-date. We estimate approximately $35 million of additional deferred expansion capital may be required in the future to support existing or anticipated future customer utilization. |

Definitions
This document includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that management believes are helpful in understanding our business, as further described below. Our definition and calculation of non-GAAP financial measures may differ from those of other Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”) and therefore may not be comparable. The non-GAAP measures should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indicator of our performance and should be considered only a supplement to net income, cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as measures of profitability and/or liquidity, computed in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted Funds From Operations “AFFO” is a non-GAAP measure that is used as a supplemental
operating measure specifically for comparing year over year ability to fund dividend distribution from operating activities. We use AFFO as a basis to address our ability to fund our dividend payments. AFFO is calculated by adding to or subtracting from FFO:
| 1. | | Plus: Amortization of deferred financing costs |
| 2. | | Plus: Non-cash compensation |
| 3. | | Plus: Non-real estate depreciation |
| 4. | | Plus: Impairment charges |
| 5. | | Plus: Below market debt amortization |
| 6. | | Plus: Original issuance costs associated with redeemed preferred stock |
| 7. | | Plus / Less: Net straight line rent adjustments (lessor revenue and lessee expense) |
| 8. | | Plus / Less: Net amortization of above and below market leases |
| 9. | | Less: Recurring capital expenditures |
| 10. | | Less: Tenant improvements |
| 11. | | Less: Capitalized leasing costs |
Capitalized leasing costs consist of commissions payable to third parties, including brokers, leasing agents, referral agents, and internal sales commissions payable to employees. Capitalized leasing costs are accrued and deducted from AFFO generally in the period the lease is executed. Leasing costs are generally paid a) to third party brokers and internal sales employees 50% at customer lease signing and 50% at lease commencement and b) to referral and leasing agents monthly over the lease term as and to the extent we receive payment from the end customer.
AFFO is not intended to represent cash flow from operations for the period, and is only intended to provide an additional measure of performance by adjusting for the effect of certain items noted above included in FFO. Other REITs widely report AFFO, however, other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating AFFO and, accordingly, our AFFO may not be comparable to other REITs.
Annualized Rent
Monthly contractual rent under existing commenced customer leases as of quarter-end, multiplied by 12. This amount reflects total annualized base rent before any one-time or non-recurring rent abatements and excludes power revenue, interconnection revenue and operating expense reimbursement.

Data Center Leasing Metrics
| · | | Rental Churn Rate – represents data center leases which are not renewed or are terminated during the period. Rental churn is calculated based on the annualized cash rent of data center expired leases terminated in the period, compared with total data center annualized rent at the beginning of the period. |
| · | | Cash and GAAP Rent Growth – represents the increase in rental rates on renewed data center leases signed during the period, as compared with the previous rental rates for the same space. Cash and GAAP rent growth are calculated based on annualized rent from the renewed data center lease compared to annualized rent from the expired data center lease. |
Data Center Net Rentable Square Feet (“NRSF”)
Both occupied and available data center NRSF includes a factor based on management’s estimate of space to account for a customer’s proportionate share of required data center support space (such as the mechanical, telecommunications and utility rooms) and building common areas, which may be updated on a periodic basis to reflect the most current build-out of our properties.
Deferred Expansion Capital
As we construct data center capacity, we work to optimize both the amount of the capital we deploy on power and cooling infrastructure and the timing of that capital deployment; as such, we generally construct our power and cooling infrastructure supporting our data center NRSF based on our estimate of customer utilization. This practice can result in our investment at a later time in Deferred Expansion Capital. We define Deferred Expansion Capital as our estimate of the incremental capital we may invest in the future to add power or cooling infrastructure to support existing or anticipated future customer utilization of NRSF within our operating data centers. From time to time, we may revise our estimate of Deferred Expansion Capital as well as the potential time period during which we may invest it. See the Data Center Projects Under Construction and Held for Development tables for more detail.
Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization for Real Estate (EBITDAre) and Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDAre is calculated in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”). EBITDAre is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, gains or losses from the sale of depreciated property, and impairment of depreciated property. We calculate adjusted EBITDA by adding our non-cash compensation expense, transaction costs from unsuccessful deals and business combinations and litigation expense to EBITDAre as well as adjusting for the impact of other impairment charges, gains or losses from sales of undepreciated land and gains or losses on early extinguishment of debt. Management uses EBITDAre and adjusted EBITDA as indicators of our ability to incur and service debt. In addition, we consider EBITDAre and adjusted EBITDA to be appropriate supplemental measures of our performance because they eliminate depreciation and interest, which permits investors to view income from operations without the impact of non-cash depreciation or the cost of debt. However, because EBITDAre and adjusted EBITDA are calculated before recurring cash charges including interest expense and taxes, and are not adjusted for capital expenditures or other recurring cash requirements of our business, their utilization as a cash flow measurement is limited.

Appendix
Funds From Operations (“FFO”) is a supplemental measure of our performance which should be considered
along with, but not as an alternative to, net income and cash provided by operating activities as a measure of operating performance. We calculate FFO in accordance with the standards established by Nareit. FFO represents net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property and undepreciated land and impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs) and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.
Our management uses FFO as a supplemental performance measure because, by excluding real estate related depreciation and amortization and gains and losses from property dispositions, it provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, captures trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs.
We offer this measure because we recognize that investors use FFO as a basis to compare our operating performance with that of other REITs. However, the utility of FFO as a measure of our performance is limited because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization and captures neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions, nor the level of capital expenditures and capitalized leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our financial condition and results from operations. FFO is a non-GAAP measure and should not be considered a measure of liquidity, an alternative to net income, cash provided by operating activities or any other performance measure determined in accordance with GAAP, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends or make distributions. In addition, our calculations of FFO are not necessarily comparable to FFO as calculated by other REITs that do not use the same definition or implementation guidelines or interpret the standards differently from us. Investors in our securities should not rely on these measures as a substitute for any GAAP measure, including net income.
GAAP Annualized Rent
Represents the monthly average contractual rent as stated on customer contracts, multiplied by 12. This amount is inclusive of any one-time or non-recurring rent abatements and excludes power revenue, interconnection revenue and operating expense reimbursement.
Monthly Recurring Revenue per Cabinet Equivalent Billed
Represents the turn-key monthly recurring colocation revenue (“MRR”) per cabinet equivalent billed. We define MRR as recurring contractual revenue, including rental, power, and interconnection revenue and operating expense reimbursement, under existing commenced customer leases. MRR per cabinet equivalent is calculated as (current quarter MRR/3) divided by ((quarter-end cabinet equivalents billed plus prior quarter-end cabinet equivalents billed)/2). Cabinet equivalents are calculated as cage-usable square feet (turn-key leased NRSF/NRSF factor) divided by 25.

Net Operating Income (“NOI”) and Cash NOI – NOI, and cash NOI are supplemental measures for the operating performance of the Company’s portfolio. NOI is operating revenues less operating expenses adjusted for items such as depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expenses, transaction costs from unsuccessful deals and business combinations and litigation expenses. Cash NOI is NOI less straight-line rents and above and below market rent amortization.
NRSF Held for Development
Represents incremental data center capacity that may be constructed in existing facilities that requires significant capital investment in order to develop new data center facilities. The estimates are based on current construction plans and expectations regarding entitlements, and they are subject to change based on current economic conditions, final zoning approvals, and the supply and demand of the market. The estimated NRSF for new development projects is based on the entire building size. NRSF placed into service may change depending on the final construction and utilization of the built space.
NRSF Under Construction
Represents NRSF for which substantial activities are ongoing to prepare the property for its intended use following development. The NRSF reflects management’s estimate of engineering drawings and required support space and is subject to change based on final demising of space. TKD estimated development costs include two components: 1) general construction to ready the NRSF as data center space and 2) power, cooling and other infrastructure to provide the designed amount of power capacity for the project. Following development completion, incremental capital, referred to as Deferred Expansion Capital, may be invested to support existing or anticipated future customer utilization of NRSF within our operating data centers.
NRSF Pre-Construction
Represents NRSF for which the projects are in the design and permitting stage. Construction will commence upon receipt of the applicable permits. The estimated completion dates are subject to change based on timing of final design and permitting approvals.
Turn-Key Same-Store
Includes turn-key data center space that was leased or available to be leased to our colocation customers as of December 31, 2017, at each of our properties, and excludes powered shell data center space, office and light-industrial space and space for which development was completed and became available to be leased after December 31, 2017. The turn-key same-store space as of December 31, 2017, is 1,771,880 NRSF. We track same-store on a computer room basis within each data center facility.
Stabilized and Pre-Stabilized NRSF
Data center projects and facilities that recently have been developed and are in the initial lease-up phase are classified as pre-stabilized NRSF until they reach 85% occupancy or have been in service for 24 months. Pre-stabilized projects and facilities become stabilized operating properties at the earlier of achievement of 85% occupancy or 24 months after development completion and are included in the stabilized operating NRSF.
