Accounting Policies [Abstract] | ' |
Basis of presentation | ' |
The condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC regarding interim financial reporting, including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X, and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the statements for the interim periods presented include all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such periods. Results for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of full year results. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated balance sheet and related notes thereto included in the Registration Statement as declared effective by the SEC on March 17, 2014. Consolidated results of operations for the period ended March 31, 2013 have not been presented because the Company had not commenced its principal operations during such period. |
Principles of consolidation | ' |
The condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |
Use of estimates | ' |
Use of Estimates |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires 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 period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Investment in and valuation of real estate assets | ' |
Investment in and Valuation of Real Estate Assets |
Real estate assets are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Amounts capitalized to real estate assets consist of the cost of acquisition, excluding acquisition related expenses, construction and any tenant improvements, major improvements and betterments that extend the useful life of the real estate assets and leasing costs. All repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. |
The Company is required to make subjective assessments as to the useful lives of its depreciable assets. The Company considers the period of future benefit of each respective asset to determine the appropriate useful life of the assets. Real estate assets, other than land, are depreciated or amortized on a straight-line basis. The estimated useful lives of the Company’s real estate assets by class are generally as follows: |
|
| |
Buildings | 40 years |
Tenant improvements | Lesser of useful life or lease term |
Intangible lease assets | Lease term |
The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of its real estate assets may not be recoverable. Impairment indicators that the Company considers include, but are not limited to, bankruptcy or other credit concerns of a property’s major tenant, such as a history of late payments, rental concessions and other factors, a significant decrease in a property’s revenues due to lease terminations, vacancies, co-tenancy clauses, reduced lease rates or other circumstances. When indicators of potential impairment are present, the Company assesses the recoverability of the assets by determining whether the carrying amount of the assets will be recovered through the undiscounted future cash flows expected from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. In the event that such expected undiscounted future cash flows do not exceed the carrying amount, the Company will adjust the real estate assets to their respective fair values and recognize an impairment loss. Generally, fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis and recent comparable sales transactions. No impairment indicators were identified and no impairment losses were recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2014. |
When developing estimates of expected future cash flows, the Company makes certain assumptions regarding future market rental income amounts subsequent to the expiration of current lease agreements, property operating expenses, terminal capitalization and discount rates, the expected number of months it takes to re-lease the property, required tenant improvements and the number of years the property will be held for investment. The use of alternative assumptions in estimating expected future cash flows could result in a different determination of the property’s expected future cash flows and a different conclusion regarding the existence of an impairment, the extent of such loss, if any, as well as the fair value of the real estate assets. |
When a real estate asset is identified by the Company as held for sale, the Company will cease depreciation and amortization of the assets related to the property and estimate the fair value, net of selling costs. If, in management’s opinion, the fair value, net of selling costs, of the asset is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an adjustment to the carrying amount would be recorded to reflect the estimated fair value of the property, net of selling costs. There were no assets identified as held for sale as of March 31, 2014. |
Allocation of purchase price of real estate assets | ' |
Allocation of Purchase Price of Real Estate Assets |
Upon the acquisition of real properties, the Company allocates the purchase price to acquired tangible assets, consisting of land, buildings and improvements, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above market and below market leases and the value of in-place leases, based in each case on their respective fair values. Acquisition related expenses are expensed as incurred. The Company utilizes independent appraisals to assist in the determination of the fair values of the tangible assets of an acquired property (which includes land and building). The Company obtains an independent appraisal for each real property acquisition. The information in the appraisal, along with any additional information available to the Company’s management, is used in estimating the amount of the purchase price that is allocated to land. Other information in the appraisal, such as building value and market rents, may be used by the Company’s management in estimating the allocation of purchase price to the building and to intangible lease assets and liabilities. The appraisal firm has no involvement in management’s allocation decisions other than providing this market information. |
The fair values of above market and below market lease intangibles will be recorded based on the present value (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (1) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (2) an estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, which is generally obtained from independent appraisals, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease including any bargain renewal periods, with respect to a below market lease. The above market and below market lease intangibles will be capitalized as intangible lease assets or liabilities, respectively. Above market leases will be amortized as a reduction to rental income over the remaining terms of the respective leases. Below market leases will be amortized as an increase to rental income over the remaining terms of the respective leases, including any bargain renewal periods. In considering whether or not the Company expects a tenant to execute a bargain renewal option, the Company will evaluate economic factors and certain qualitative factors at the time of acquisition, such as the financial strength of the tenant, remaining lease term, the tenant mix of the leased property, the Company’s relationship with the tenant and the availability of competing tenant space. If a lease were to be terminated prior to its stated expiration, all unamortized amounts of above market or below market lease intangibles relating to that lease would be recorded as an adjustment to rental income. |
The fair values of in-place leases include estimates of direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant and opportunity costs associated with lost rental and other property income, which are avoided by acquiring a property with an in-place lease. Direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant include commissions and other direct costs and are estimated in part by utilizing information obtained from independent appraisals and management’s consideration of current market costs to execute a similar lease. The intangible values of opportunity costs, which are calculated using the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases over a market absorption period for a similar lease, are capitalized as intangible lease assets and are amortized to expense over the remaining term of the respective leases. If a lease were to be terminated prior to its stated expiration, all unamortized amounts of in-place lease assets relating to that lease would be expensed. |
The Company may acquire certain properties subject to contingent consideration arrangements that may obligate the Company to pay additional consideration to the seller based on the outcome of future events. Additionally, the Company may acquire certain properties for which it funds certain contingent consideration amounts into an escrow account pending the outcome of certain future events. The outcome may result in the release of all or a portion of the escrow funds to the Company or the seller or a combination thereof. Contingent consideration arrangements will be based on a predetermined formula and have set time periods regarding the obligation to make future payments, including funds released to the seller from escrow accounts, or the right to receive escrowed funds as set forth in the respective purchase and sale agreement. Contingent consideration arrangements, including amounts funded through an escrow account, will be recorded upon acquisition of the respective property at their estimated fair value, and any changes to the estimated fair value, subsequent to acquisition, will be reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated unaudited statements of operations. The determination of the amount of contingent consideration arrangements is based on the probability of several possible outcomes as identified by management. The amounts recorded will be carried at fair value, with any changes in fair value included in net income (loss). |
The Company will estimate the fair value of assumed mortgage notes payable based upon indications of current market pricing for similar types of debt financing with similar maturities. Assumed mortgage notes payable will initially be recorded at their estimated fair value as of the assumption date, and any difference between such estimated fair value and the mortgage note’s outstanding principal balance will be amortized to interest expense over the term of the respective mortgage note payable. |
The determination of the fair values of the real estate assets and liabilities acquired requires the use of significant assumptions with regard to the current market rental rates, rental growth rates, capitalization and discount rates, interest rates and other variables. The use of alternative estimates may result in a different allocation of the Company’s purchase price, which could impact the Company’s results of operations. |
Cash and cash equivalents | ' |
Cash and Cash Equivalents |
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturities when purchased of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company considers investments in highly liquid money market accounts to be cash equivalents. |
Rents and tenant receivables | ' |
Rents and Tenant Receivables |
Rents and tenant receivables will primarily include amounts to be collected in future periods related to the recognition of rental income on a straight-line basis over the lease term and cost recoveries due from tenants. The Company will make estimates of the uncollectability of its accounts receivable related to base rents, expense reimbursements and other revenues. The Company will analyze accounts receivable and historical bad debt levels, customer creditworthiness and current economic trends when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. In addition, tenants in bankruptcy, if any, will be analyzed and estimates will be made in connection with the expected recovery of pre-petition and post-petition claims. The Company’s reported net income or loss will be directly affected by management’s estimate of the collectability of accounts receivable. The Company will record allowances for those balances that the Company deems to be uncollectible, including any amounts relating to straight-line rent receivables. |
Prepaid expenses | ' |
Prepaid Expenses |
Prepaid expenses will include expenses paid as of the balance sheet date that relate to future periods and will be expensed or reclassified to another account during the period to which the costs relate. Any amounts with no future economic benefit will be charged to earnings when identified. |
Concentration of credit risk | ' |
Concentration of Credit Risk |
As of March 31, 2014, the Company had cash on deposit at one financial institution, in which the Company had deposits in excess of federally insured levels totaling $5,000; however, the Company has not experienced any losses in such account. The Company limits significant cash deposits to accounts held by financial institutions with high credit standing; therefore, the Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on its cash deposits. |
As of March 31, 2014, the Company had two tenants in the discount store industry, one located in Indiana and one located in Kansas, and one tenant in the automotive industry located in North Carolina. These three tenants accounted for 34%, 28% and 38%, respectively, of the Company’s 2014 gross annualized rental revenues. |
Offering and related costs | ' |
Offering and Related Costs |
CR V Advisors funds all of the organization and offering costs on the Company’s behalf (excluding selling commissions and dealer manager fees) and may be reimbursed for such costs up to 2.0% of gross proceeds from the Offering. As of March 31, 2014, CR V Advisors had paid organization and offering costs in excess of the 2.0% in connection with the Offering. These excess costs were not included in the financial statements of the Company because such costs were not a liability of the Company as they exceeded 2.0% of gross proceeds from the Offering. As the Company raises additional proceeds from the Offering, these excess costs may become payable. When recorded by the Company, organization costs are expensed as incurred and offering costs, which include items such as legal and accounting fees, marketing, personnel, promotional and printing costs, are recorded as a reduction of capital in excess of par value along with selling commissions and dealer manager fees in the period in which they become payable. |
Redeemable common stock | ' |
Redeemable Common Stock |
Under the Company’s share redemption program, the Company’s requirement to redeem shares of its outstanding common stock is limited, among other things, to the net proceeds received by the Company from the sale of shares under the DRIP, net of shares redeemed to date. The Company will record amounts that are redeemable under the share redemption program as redeemable common stock outside of permanent equity in its consolidated balance sheets. Changes in the amount of redeemable common stock from period to period will be recorded as an adjustment to capital in excess of par value. |
Interest | ' |
Interest |
Interest is charged to interest expense as it accrues. No interest costs were capitalized during the three months ended March 31, 2014. |
Distributions payable and distribution policy | ' |
Distributions Payable and Distribution Policy |
In order to qualify and maintain its status as a REIT, the Company is required to, among other things, make distributions each taxable year equal to at least 90% of its taxable income (computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding net capital gains). To the extent that funds are available, the Company intends to pay regular distributions to stockholders. Distributions are paid to stockholders of record as of applicable record dates. The Company intends to qualify and elect to be taxed as a REIT for federal income tax purposes commencing with its taxable year ending December 31, 2014; however, the Company has not yet elected, and has not yet qualified, to be taxed as a REIT, as it did not commence principal operations until March 18, 2014. |
The Company’s board of directors authorized a daily distribution, based on 365 days in the calendar year, of $0.0043150685 per share, based on a per share price of $25.00, for stockholders of record as of the close of business on each day of the period commencing on March 19, 2014 and ending on June 30, 2014. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had distributions payable of $6,000. |
Stockholders' equity | ' |
Stockholder’s Equity |
As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company was authorized to issue 490.0 million shares of common stock and 10.0 million shares of preferred stock. All shares of such stock have a par value of $0.01 per share. On February 15, 2013, the Company sold 100 shares of common stock, at $10.00 per share, to a predecessor of CREInvestments, LLC (“CREI”), and on June 19, 2013, the Company sold 19,900 shares of common stock, at $10.00 per share, to CREI, each of which was formerly the indirect owner of CR V Advisors and the Company’s dealer manager. Subsequent to December 31, 2013, the ownership of such shares was transferred to ARCP OP. In addition, the shares issued and outstanding, as well as the dollar amount of common stock and capital in excess of par value, as of December 31, 2013 have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split. Pursuant to the Company’s charter, ARCP OP is prohibited from selling the 8,000 shares of the common stock that represents the initial investment in the Company for so long as Cole Capital remains the Company’s sponsor; provided, however, that ARCP OP may transfer ownership of all or a portion of these 8,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to other affiliates of the Company’s sponsor. The Company’s board of directors may amend the Company’s charter from time to time to increase or decrease the aggregate number of shares of stock or the number of shares of stock of any class or series that the Company has authority to issue without obtaining stockholder approval. The par value of investor proceeds raised from the Offering is classified as common stock, with the remainder allocated to capital in excess of par value. |
Reportable segment | ' |
Reportable Segment |
The Company’s operating segment consists of commercial properties, which may include activities related to investing in real estate such as retail, office and distribution properties and other real estate related assets. The commercial properties are geographically diversified and have similar economic characteristics. The Company evaluates operating performance on an overall portfolio level; therefore, the Company’s properties are one reportable segment. |
Revenue recognition | ' |
Revenue Recognition |
Certain properties have leases where minimum rental payments increase during the term of the lease. The Company records rental income for the full term of each lease on a straight-line basis. When the Company acquires a property, the terms of existing leases are considered to commence as of the acquisition date for the purpose of this calculation. The Company defers the recognition of contingent rental income, such as percentage rents, until the specific target that triggers the contingent rental income is achieved. Expected reimbursements from tenants for recoverable real estate taxes and operating expenses are included in tenant reimbursement income in the period when such costs are incurred. |
Earnings (loss) per share | ' |
Earnings (Loss) Per Share |
Earnings (loss) per share are calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period presented. Diluted income (loss) per share considers the effect of any potentially dilutive share equivalents, of which the Company had none during the three months ended March 31, 2014. |
Income taxes | ' |
Income Taxes |
The Company intends to elect to be taxed as a REIT for federal income tax purposes under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), commencing with its taxable year ending December 31, 2014, as it did not commence principal operations until March 18, 2014. If the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company will generally not be subject to federal corporate income tax to the extent it distributes its taxable income to its stockholders, and so long as it, among other things, distributes at least 90% of its annual taxable income (computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding net capital gains). REITs are subject to a number of other organizational and operational requirements. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, it or its subsidiaries may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income. |
Recent accounting pronouncements | ' |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
In April 2014, the U.S. Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update, 2014-08 Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity (“ASU 2014-08”), which amends the reporting requirements for discontinued operations by updating the definition of a discontinued operation to be a component of an entity that represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results, resulting in fewer disposals that qualify for discontinued operations reporting; yet, the pronouncement also requires expanded disclosures for discontinued operations. The adoption of ASU 2014-08 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements because the Company did not have any discontinued operations. |
