(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
|
General |
|
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
|
Reclassification |
|
Certain reclassifications were made to the 2013 financial statements to conform to the 2014 consolidated financial statement presentation. |
|
Consolidation |
|
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, as well as all wholly owned subsidiaries. Wholly owned subsidiaries generally consist of limited liability companies (LLCs). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |

|
Each property is owned by a separate legal entity which maintains its own books and financial records and each entity’s assets are not available to satisfy the liabilities of other affiliated entities, except as otherwise disclosed in note 6. |
|
Offering and Organization Costs |
|
Costs associated with the Offering are deferred and charged against the gross proceeds of the Offering upon closing. Formation and organizational costs were expensed as incurred. |
|
Partially-Owned Entities |
|
The Company will consolidate the operations of a joint venture if the Company determines that it is either the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (VIE) or has substantial influence and control of the entity. The primary beneficiary is the party that has the ability to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses and the right to receive the returns from the VIE that would be significant to the VIE. There are significant judgments and estimates involved in determining the primary beneficiary of a VIE or the determination of who has control and influence of the entity. When the Company consolidates an entity, the assets, liabilities and results of operations will be included in our consolidated financial statements. |
|
In instances where the Company determines that we are not the primary beneficiary of a VIE or the Company does not control the joint venture but can exercise influence over the entity with respect to its operations and major decisions, the Company will use the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, the operations of a joint venture will not be consolidated with the Company’s operations but instead our share of operations will be reflected as equity in earnings (loss) of unconsolidated entity on our consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive loss. Additionally, the Company’s net investment in the joint venture will be reflected as investment in unconsolidated entity on the consolidated balance sheets. |
|
Cash and Cash Equivalents |
|
The Company considers all demand deposits, money market accounts and all short term investments with a maturity of three months or less, at the date of purchase, to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents at financial institutions. The account balance may periodically exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance coverage and, as a result, there could be a concentration of credit risk related to amounts on deposit in excess of FDIC insurance coverage. The Company believes that the risk will not be significant, as the Company does not anticipate the financial institutions’ non-performance. |

Acquisitions |
|
Upon acquisition, the Company determines the total purchase price of each property, which includes the estimated contingent consideration to be paid or received in future periods, if any. The Company allocates the total purchase price of properties based on the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on Level 3 inputs, such as comparable sales values, discount rates, capitalization rates, revenue and expense growth rates and lease-up assumptions, from a third party appraisal or other market sources. |
|
Certain of the Company’s properties included earnout components to the purchase price, meaning the Company did not pay a portion of the purchase price of the property at closing, although the Company owns the entire property. The Company is not obligated to settle the contingent portion of the purchase price unless space which was vacant at the time of acquisition is later leased by the seller within the time limits and parameters set forth in the related acquisition agreements. The earnout payments are based on a predetermined formula applied to rental income received. The earnout agreements have a limited obligation period from the date of acquisition, as defined. If at the end of the time period certain space has not been leased, occupied and rent producing, the Company will have no further obligation to pay additional purchase price consideration and will retain ownership of that entire property. Based on its best estimate, the Company has recorded a liability for the potential future earnout payment using estimated fair value at the date of acquisition using Level 3 inputs including market rents ranging from $14.00 to $31.00 per square foot, probability of occupancy ranging from 0% to 100% based on leasing activity and utilizing a discount rate of 8.00% to 8.25%. The Company has recorded this earnout amount as additional purchase price of the related property and as a liability included in deferred investment property acquisition obligations on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The liability increases as the anticipated payment date draws near based on a present value; such increases in the liability are recorded as amortization expense on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive loss. The Company records changes in the underlying liability assumptions to acquisition related costs on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive loss. |
|
The portion of the purchase price allocated to acquired above market lease value and acquired below market lease value are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease as an adjustment to rental income. For below market lease values, the amortization period includes any renewal periods with fixed rate renewals. Amortization pertaining to the above market lease value of $150,238 and $0 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $258,984 and $0 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, was recorded as a reduction to rental income. Amortization pertaining to the below market lease value of $181,083 and $5,906 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $275,812 and $18,266 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, was recorded as an increase to rental income. |

The portion of the purchase price allocated to acquired in-place lease value is amortized on a straight-line basis over the acquired leases’ weighted average remaining term. The Company incurred amortization expense pertaining to acquired in-place lease intangibles of $708,651 and $56,318 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $1,303,880 and $170,572 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. |
|
The portion of the purchase price allocated to customer relationship value is amortized on a straight-line basis over the weighted average remaining lease term. As of September 30, 2014, no amount has been allocated to customer relationship value. |
|
The following table summarizes the Company’s identified intangible assets and liabilities as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013: |

|
Impairment of Investment Properties |
|
The Company assesses the carrying values of its respective long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of these assets may not be fully recoverable. Recoverability of the assets is measured by comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to the estimated future undiscounted cash flows. In order to review its assets for recoverability, the Company considers current market conditions, as well as its intent with respect to holding or disposing of the asset. If the Company’s analysis indicates that the carrying value of the long-lived asset is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, the Company recognizes an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the current estimated fair value of the real estate property. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third party appraisals, where considered necessary (Level 3 inputs). |
|
The Company estimates the future undiscounted cash flows based on management’s intent as follows: (i) for real estate properties that the Company intends to hold long-term, including land held for development, properties currently under development and operating buildings, recoverability is assessed based on the estimated future net rental income from operating the property and termination value; and (ii) for real estate properties that the Company intends to sell, including land parcels, properties currently under development and operating buildings, recoverability is assessed based on estimated proceeds from disposition that are estimated based on future net rental income of the property and expected market capitalization rates, less sale costs. |
|
The use of projected future cash flows is based on assumptions that are consistent with our estimates of future expectations and the strategic plan the Company uses to manage its underlying business. However, assumptions and estimates about future cash flows, including comparable sales values, discount rates, capitalization rates, revenue and expense growth rates and lease-up assumptions which impact the discounted cash flow approach to determining value, are complex and subjective. Changes in economic and operating conditions and the Company’s ultimate investment intent that occur subsequent to the impairment analysis could impact these assumptions and result in future impairment charges of the real estate properties. |
|
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company incurred no impairment charges. |

Capitalization and Depreciation |
|
Real estate acquisitions are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Improvement and betterment costs are capitalized, and ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. |
|
Transactional costs in connection with the acquisition of real estate properties accounted for as business combinations are expensed as incurred. |
|
Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method. Building and improvements are depreciated based upon estimated useful lives of 30 years and 5-15 years for furniture, fixtures and equipment and site improvements. |
|
Tenant improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the life of the asset or the term of the related lease as a component of depreciation and amortization expense. Leasing fees are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease as a component of depreciation and amortization expense. |
|
Cost capitalization and the estimate of useful lives require judgment and include significant estimates that can and do change. |
|
Depreciation expense was $1,868,538 and $193,028 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $3,422,105 and $578,400 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. |
|
Deferred Loan Fees |
|
Direct financing costs are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest method, over the term, or anticipated repayment date, of the related agreements as a component of interest expense. |
|
Fair Value Measurements |
|
The Company has estimated fair value using available market information and valuation methodologies the Company believes to be appropriate for these purposes. Considerable judgment and a high degree of subjectivity are involved in developing these estimates and, accordingly, they are not necessarily indicative of amounts that would be realized upon disposition. |

The Company defines fair value based on the price that it believes would be received upon sale of an asset or the exit price that would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which are described below: |
|
| Level 1 − | | Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access. | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | |
| Level 2 − | | Observable inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | |
| Level 3 − | | Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs. | | | | | | | |
|
Revenue Recognition |
|
The Company commences revenue recognition on its leases based on a number of factors. In most cases, revenue recognition under a lease begins when the lessee takes possession of, or controls the physical use of, the leased asset. Generally, this occurs on the lease commencement date. The determination of who is the owner, for accounting purposes, of the tenant improvements determines the nature of the leased asset and when revenue recognition under a lease begins. If the Company is the owner, for accounting purposes, of the tenant improvements, then the leased asset is the finished space and revenue recognition begins when the lessee takes possession of the finished space, typically when the improvements are substantially complete. If the Company concludes it is not the owner, for accounting purposes, of the tenant improvements (the lessee is the owner), then the leased asset is the unimproved space and any tenant improvement allowances funded by the Company under the lease are treated as lease incentives which reduce revenue recognized over the term of the lease. In these circumstances, the Company begins revenue recognition when the lessee takes possession of the unimproved space for the lessee to construct their own improvements. The Company considers a number of different factors to evaluate whether it or the lessee is the owner of the tenant improvements for accounting purposes. The determination of who owns the tenant improvements, for accounting purposes, is subject to significant judgment. |

Rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of each lease. The difference between rental income earned on a straight-line basis and the cash rent due under the provisions of the lease agreements is recorded as deferred rent receivable and is included as a component of accounts and rents receivable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Due to the impact of the straight-line basis, rental income generally will be greater than the cash collected in the early years and will decrease in the later years of a lease. The Company periodically reviews the collectability of outstanding receivables. Allowances are taken for those balances that the Company deems to be uncollectible, including any amounts relating to straight-line rent receivables. |
|
Reimbursements from tenants for recoverable real estate tax and operating expenses are accrued as revenue in the period the applicable expenses are incurred. The Company makes certain assumptions and judgments in estimating the reimbursements at the end of each reporting period. The Company does not expect the actual results to materially differ from the estimated reimbursement. |
|
The Company records lease termination income if there is a signed termination agreement, all of the conditions of the agreement have been met, the tenant is no longer occupying the property and amounts due are considered collectible. Upon early lease termination, the Company provides for gains or losses related to unrecovered intangibles and other assets. |
|
As a lessor, the Company defers the recognition of contingent rental income, such as percentage rent, until the specified target that triggered the contingent rental income is achieved. |
|
REIT Status |
|
The Company has qualified and elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, for federal income tax purposes commencing with the tax year ended December 31, 2013. As a result, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax on taxable income that is distributed to stockholders. A REIT is subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it currently distributes at least 90% of its taxable income (subject to certain adjustments) to its stockholders. The Company will monitor the business and transactions that may potentially impact its REIT status. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, without the benefit of certain relief provisions, the Company will be subject to federal (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) and state income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income, property or net worth and federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income. |

Derivatives |
|
The Company uses derivative instruments, such as interest rate swaps, primarily to manage exposure to interest rate risks inherent in variable rate debt. The Company may also enter into forward starting swaps or treasury lock agreements to set the effective interest rate on a planned fixed-rate financing. The Company’s interest rate swaps involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. In a forward starting swap or treasury lock agreement that the Company cash settles in anticipation of a fixed rate financing or refinancing, the Company will receive or pay an amount equal to the present value of future cash flow payments based on the difference between the contract rate and market rate on the settlement date. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes and currently does not have any derivatives that are not designated as hedging instruments under the accounting requirements for derivatives and hedging. |
|
Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
|
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or the FASB, issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2017. Early application is not permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU No. 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting. |
|
In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, or ASU 2014-08. ASU 2014-08 changes the criteria for reporting discontinued operations while enhancing disclosures in this area. Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations. Those strategic shifts should have a major effect on the company’s operations and financial results. Examples include a disposal of a major geographic area, a major line of business, or a major equity method investment. Additionally, the new guidance requires expanded disclosures about discontinued operations that will provide financial statement users with more information about the assets, liabilities, income, and expenses of discontinued operations. The adoption of ASU 2014-08 is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-08 to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. |
