Starwood Real Estate Income Trust, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. Organization and Business Purpose
Starwood Real Estate Income Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) was formed on June 22, 2017 as a Maryland corporation and intends to qualify as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Company is the sole general partner of Starwood REIT Operating Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”). Starwood REIT Special Limited Partner, L.L.C. (the “Special Limited Partner”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Starwood Capital Group Holdings, L.P. (the “Sponsor”), owns a special limited partner interest in the Operating Partnership. The Company was organized to invest primarily in stabilized, income-oriented commercial real estate and debt secured by commercial real estate. The Company’s portfolio principally will be comprised of properties, and debt secured by properties, located in the United States but may also be diversified on a global basis through the acquisition of properties, and debt secured by properties, outside of the United States, with a focus on Europe. To a lesser extent, the Company may also invest in real estate-related securities. Substantially all of the Company’s business will be conducted through the Operating Partnership. The Company and the Operating Partnership are externally managed by Starwood REIT Advisors, L.L.C. (the “Advisor”), an affiliate of the Sponsor.
As of September 30, 2018, the Company had neither purchased nor contracted to purchase any investments. During June, July and October 2018 an affiliate of the Advisor acquired a total of six multifamily properties from third parties, which had been specifically identified for the Company. It is the Company’s intention to acquire these properties from this affiliated entity following the date on which the proceeds from escrow are released.
On September 7, 2018, the Advisor entered into an Investment Management Agreement (the “Investment Management Agreement”) with BlackRock Financial Management, Inc. (“BlackRock”). Pursuant to the Investment Management Agreement, BlackRock will serve asa sub-advisor to the Advisor and act as the investment manager for the Company’s portfolio of real estate-related securities (the “Securities Portfolio”) and other investments that provide liquidity for the Company’s share repurchase plan, cash management and other purposes. The Securities Portfolio may comprise up to 20% of the Company’s assets. Under the terms of the Investment Management Agreement, BlackRock’s fee for its services shall be paid entirely by the Advisor and not by the Company.
2. | Capitalization |
On July 13, 2017, the Company was capitalized with a $200,000 investment by Starwood Real Estate Income Holdings, L.P., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Sponsor, in exchange for 10,000 shares of the Company’s Class I shares.
As of September 30, 2018, the Company had the authority to issue 1,100,000,000 shares of capital stock, consisting of the following:
Classification | Number of Shares | Par Value | ||||||
Preferred Stock | 100,000,000 | $ | 0.01 | |||||
Class T Shares | 250,000,000 | $ | 0.01 | |||||
Class S Shares | 250,000,000 | $ | 0.01 | |||||
Class D Shares | 250,000,000 | $ | 0.01 | |||||
Class I Shares | 250,000,000 | $ | 0.01 | |||||
|
| |||||||
Total | 1,100,000,000 |
The Company has registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) an offering of up to $5.0 billion in shares of common stock, consisting of up to $4.0 billion in shares in its primary offering and up to
5
Table of Contents
$1.0 billion in shares pursuant to its distribution reinvestment plan (the “Offering”). The Company intends to sell any combination of the four classes of shares of its common stock, with a dollar value up to the maximum aggregate offering amount. The share classes have different upfront selling commissions and ongoing stockholder servicing fees. The terms of the Offering require the Company to deposit all subscription proceeds in an escrow with UMB Bank, N.A., as escrow agent, until the Company receives subscriptions aggregating at least $150 million in shares of the Company’s common stock in any combination of share classes. Until the release of proceeds from escrow, the per share purchase price for shares of the Company’s common stock in its primary offering will be $20.00 per share plus applicable upfront selling commissions and dealer manager fees. Thereafter, the purchase price per share for each class of common stock will vary and will generally equal the Company’s prior month’s net asset value (“NAV”) per share, as calculated monthly, plus applicable upfront selling commissions and dealer manager fees.
3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form10-Q and Rule10-01 of RegulationS-X. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, are unaudited and exclude some of the disclosures required in audited financial statements. Management believes it has made all necessary adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring items, so that the consolidated financial statements are presented fairly and that estimates made in preparing its consolidated financial statements are reasonable and prudent. The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 filed with the SEC.
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the balance sheet. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents represent cash held in banks, cash on hand, and liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. The Company may have bank balances in excess of federally insured amounts; however, the Company deposits its cash and cash equivalents with high credit-quality institutions to minimize credit risk exposure. The Company did not hold cash equivalents as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.
Income Taxes
The Company intends to make an election to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code commencing with its taxable year ending December 31 for the year in which the proceeds from escrow are released. If the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to federal corporate income tax to the extent it distributes 90% of its taxable income to its stockholders. REITs are subject to a number of other organizational and operational requirements. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, it may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income.
Organization and Offering Expenses
The Advisor has agreed to advance organization and offering expenses on behalf of the Company (including legal, accounting, and other expenses attributable to the organization, but excluding upfront selling commissions,
6
Table of Contents
dealer manager fees and stockholder servicing fees) through the first anniversary of the date on which the proceeds from escrow are released. The Company will reimburse the Advisor for all such advanced expenses ratably over a 60 month period following the first anniversary of the date the proceeds from escrow are released.
As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Advisor and its affiliates have incurred organization and offering expenses on the Company’s behalf of approximately $5.0 million and $3.0 million, respectively. These organization and offering expenses are not recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets because such costs are not the Company’s liability until the date on which the proceeds from escrow are released. When recorded by the Company, organizational expenses will be expensed as incurred, and offering expenses will be charged to stockholders’ equity. Any amount due to the Advisor but not paid will be recognized as a liability on the balance sheet.
Distribution Reinvestment Plan
The Company has adopted a distribution reinvestment plan whereby stockholders (other than clients of participating broker-dealers and residents of certain states that do not permit automatic enrollment in the distribution reinvestment plan) will have their cash distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of common stock unless they elect to receive their distributions in cash. Residents of Alabama, Arkansas, Idaho, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Nebraska, North Carolina, New Jersey, Ohio, Oregon and Washington and clients of participating broker-dealers that do not permit automatic enrollment in the distribution reinvestment plan will automatically receive their distributions in cash unless they elect to have their cash distributions reinvested in additional shares of our common stock. The per share purchase price for shares purchased pursuant to the distribution reinvestment plan will be equal to the offering price before upfront selling commissions and dealer manager fees (the “transaction price”) at the time the distribution is payable, which will generally be equal to the Company’s prior month’s NAV per share for that share class. Stockholders will not pay upfront selling commissions or dealer manager fees when purchasing shares pursuant to the distribution reinvestment plan. The stockholder servicing fees with respect to shares of the Company’s Class T shares, Class S shares and Class D shares are calculated based on the NAV for those shares and may reduce the NAV or, alternatively, the distributions payable with respect to shares of each such class, including shares issued under the distribution reinvestment plan.
Share Repurchases
The Company has adopted a share repurchase plan, whereby on a monthly basis, stockholders may request that the Company repurchase all or any portion of their shares. The Company may choose to repurchase all, some or none of the shares that have been requested to be repurchased at the end of any particular month, in its discretion, subject to any limitations in the share repurchase plan. The total amount of aggregate repurchases of Class T, Class S, Class D, and Class I shares will be limited to 2% of the aggregate NAV per month and 5% of the aggregate NAV per calendar quarter. Shares would be repurchased at a price equal to the transaction price on the applicable repurchase date, subject to any early repurchase deduction. Shares that have not been outstanding for at least one year would be repurchased at 95% of the transaction price (the “Early Repurchase Deduction”). Due to the illiquid nature of investments in real estate, the Company may not have sufficient liquid resources to fund repurchase requests and has established limitations on the amount of funds the Company may use for repurchases during any calendar month and quarter. Further, the Company may modify, suspend or terminate the share repurchase plan.
The Company has amended its share repurchase plan to provide that if two or more of Barry Sternlicht, John McCarthy, Christopher Graham and Jeff Dishner (or any individual that replaces such persons, as applicable) were to no longer work for the Sponsor or one of its affiliates, and the Company were not to appoint one or more replacements to fill the duties of at least one of such key persons within 90 days (a “Key Person Triggering Event”), then the Early Repurchase Deduction would be waived with respect to all shares of the Company’s common stock that had been purchased in the twelve months preceding the expiration of five business days after
7
Table of Contents
the public disclosure of the occurrence of a Key Person Triggering Event from the time the Key Person Triggering Event is publicly disclosed until the completion of three full calendar months. Such waiver of the Early Repurchase Deduction shall not apply to any shares acquired through the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” Beginning January 1, 2018, companies will be required to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services and also includes additional disclosure requirements. The Company has adopted this pronouncement as of January 1, 2018 and will apply this guidance to its consolidated financial statements once significant operations commence.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU2016-02, “Leases” (“ASU2016-02”), which will require organizations that lease assets to recognize the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases on their balance sheet. Additional disclosure regarding a company’s leasing activities will also be expanded under the new guidance. For public entities, ASU2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company will assess the potential impact of this pronouncement on its consolidated financial statements from both a lessor and lessee standpoint once significant operations commence.
In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU2018-11, “Leases (Topic 842) - Targeted Improvements”, which provides “practical expedient” options (a) to implement ASU2016-02 prospectively by only applying the new rules to leases that are in place as of the effective date on ago-forward basis, and (b) for lessors to combine revenues from lease andnon-lease components. The Company anticipates using both of the practical expedients.
4. Related Party Transactions
During the period January 1, 2018 through September 30, 2018, the Advisor has advanced $66,314 of expenses on the Company’s behalf for accounting and other corporate services. Such amount is reflected as Due to affiliates on the consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2018.
On November 7, 2018 the Company renewed the advisory agreement among the Company, Operating Partnership and the Advisor for an additionalone-year period ending December 14, 2019. Pursuant to the advisory agreement, the Advisor is responsible for sourcing, evaluating and monitoring the Company’s investment opportunities and making decisions related to the acquisition, management, financing and disposition of the Company’s assets, in accordance with the Company’s investment objectives, guidelines, policies and limitations, subject to oversight by the Company’s board of directors.
Certain affiliates of the Company, including the Advisor, will receive fees and compensation in connection with the offering and ongoing management of the assets of the Company. The Advisor will be paid a management fee equal to 1.25% of NAV per annum, payable monthly. The management fee will be paid, at the Advisor’s election, in cash or Class I shares or Class I units of the Operating Partnership. The Advisor has agreed to waive its management fee for the first three months following the date on which the proceeds from escrow are released.
The Company may retain certain of the Advisor’s affiliates for necessary services relating to the Company’s investments or its operations, including any administrative services, construction, special servicing, leasing, development, property oversight and other property management services, as well as services related to mortgage servicing, group purchasing, healthcare, consulting/brokerage, capital markets/credit origination, loan servicing, property, title or other types of insurance, management consulting and other similar operational matters. Any such arrangements will be at market terms and rates. As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company has not retained an affiliate of the Advisor for any such services.

Table of Contents
The Special Limited Partner holds an interest in the Operating Partnership that entitles it to receive performance participation distributions in the form of cash (or Operating Partnership interests at its election) from the Operating Partnership equal to 12.5% of the annual Total Return, subject to a 5% annual Hurdle Amount and a High Water Mark, with aCatch-Up (each term as defined in the Operating Partnership limited partnership agreement). Such payment will be made annually. The Special Limited Partner had not earned a performance participation interest as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.
In addition, Starwood Capital, L.L.C. (the “Dealer Manager”) serves as the dealer manager for the Offering pursuant to an agreement (the “Dealer Manager Agreement”) with the Company. The Dealer Manager is a registered broker-dealer affiliated with the Advisor.
The Dealer Manager will be entitled to receive upfront selling commissions of up to 3.0%, and dealer manager fees of 0.5%, of the transaction price of each Class T share sold in the primary offering. The Dealer Manager will be entitled to receive upfront selling commissions of up to 3.5% of the transaction price of each Class S share sold in the primary offering. The Dealer Manager will also receive a stockholder servicing fee of 0.85%, 0.85% and 0.25% per annum of the aggregate NAV of the Company’s outstanding Class T shares, Class S shares and Class D shares, respectively. The Dealer Manager anticipates that all or a portion of the upfront selling commissions and all or a portion of the stockholder servicing fees will be retained by or paid to, participating broker dealers. The Company will cease paying the stockholder servicing fee with respect to any Class T shares, Class S shares or Class D shares held in a stockholder’s account at the end of the month in which the Dealer Manager in conjunction with the transfer agent determines that total upfront selling commissions, dealer manager fees and stockholder servicing fees paid with respect to such shares would exceed 8.75% (or, in the case of Class T shares sold through certain participating broker-dealers, a lower limit as set forth in any applicable agreement between the Dealer Manager and a participating broker-dealer at the time such Class T shares were issued) of the gross proceeds from the sale of such shares (including the gross proceeds of any shares issued under the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan with respect thereto). The Company will accrue the cost of the stockholder servicing fee as an offering cost at the time each Class T, Class S and Class D share is sold during the primary offering. There will not be a stockholder servicing fee with respect to Class I shares. Subject to the terms of the Dealer Manager Agreement, the Company’s obligations to pay stockholder servicing fees with respect to the Class T, Class S and Class D shares distributed in the Offering shall survive until such shares are no longer outstanding (including because such shares converted into Class I shares).
In addition, the Company will cease paying the stockholder servicing fee on the Class T shares, Class S shares and Class D shares (and such shares will convert into Class I shares) on the earlier to occur of the following: (i) a listing of Class I shares, (ii) our merger or consolidation with or into another entity or the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, in each case in a transaction in which the Company’s stockholders receive cash or securities listed on a national securities exchange or (iii) the date on which, in the aggregate, underwriting compensation from all sources in connection with the Offering, including upfront selling commissions, dealer manager fees, the stockholder servicing fee and other underwriting compensation, is equal to 10% of the gross proceeds from the Company’s primary offering.
5. Economic Dependency
The Company will be dependent on the Advisor and its affiliates for certain services that are essential to it, including the sale of the Company’s shares of common stock, acquisition and disposition decisions, and certain other responsibilities. In the event that the Advisor and its affiliates are unable to provide such services, the Company would be required to find alternative service providers.
6. Commitments and Contingencies
As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company is not subject to any material litigation nor is the Company aware of any material litigation threatened against it.

Our actual results may differ materially from those in this discussion as a result of various factors, including but not limited to those discussed under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form10-K filed with the SEC on March 30, 2018 and elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form10-Q. We do not undertake to revise or update any forward-looking statements.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Form10-Q contains forward-looking statements about our business, including, in particular, statements about our plans, strategies and objectives. You can generally identify forward-looking statements by our use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “continue” or other similar words. These statements include our plans and objectives for future operations, including plans and objectives relating to future growth and availability of funds, and are based on current expectations that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. Assumptions relating to these statements involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to accurately predict and many of which are beyond our control. Although we believe the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements, and the forward-looking statements themselves, are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance that these forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate and our actual results, performance and achievements may be materially different from that expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Except as required by law, we do not undertake to update or revise any forward-looking statements contained in this Form10-Q. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in these forward looking statements, the inclusion of this information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that our objectives and plans, which we consider to be reasonable, will be achieved.
Overview
We were formed on June 22, 2017 as a Maryland corporation to invest primarily in stabilized, income-oriented commercial real estate and debt secured by commercial real estate. Our portfolio principally will be comprised of properties, and debt secured by properties, located in the United States but may also be diversified on a global basis through investments in properties and debt secured by properties, outside of the United States, with a focus on Europe. We are an externally advised, perpetual-life REIT and intend to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. We plan to own all or substantially all of our assets through the Operating Partnership, of which we are the sole general partner. We and the Operating Partnership are externally managed by the Advisor.
Our board of directors will at all times have ultimate oversight and policy-making authority over us, including responsibility for governance, financial controls, compliance and disclosure. Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, however, we have delegated to the Advisor the authority to source, evaluate and monitor our investment opportunities and make decisions related to the acquisition, management, financing and disposition of our assets, in accordance with our investment objectives, guidelines, policies and limitations, subject to oversight by our board of directors.
On July 13, 2017, we were capitalized with a $200,000 investment by Starwood Real Estate Income Holdings, L.P., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Sponsor. As of September 30, 2018, we had neither engaged in any
10
Table of Contents
principal operations nor generated any revenues. Our entire activity since inception through September 30, 2018 was to prepare for and engage in our Offering (defined below). We have registered with the SEC an offering (the “Offering”) of up to $5.0 billion in shares of common stock (in any combination of purchases of Class T, Class S, Class D and Class I shares of our common stock), consisting of up to $4.0 billion in shares in our primary offering and up to $1.0 billion in shares pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan pursuant to a Registration Statement on FormS-11 (FileNo. 333-220997). All offering proceeds will be placed in escrow and such escrow period will conclude no earlier than when we receive purchase orders for at least the minimum offering amount of $150 million (including purchase orders by Starwood Capital, its affiliates and our directors and officers, which purchases are not limited in amount) and our board of directors determines to authorize the release of the escrowed funds.
As of September 30, 2018, we had not entered into any arrangements to acquire any properties, debt or real estate-related securities with the net proceeds from the Offering. The number and type of properties, debt or real estate-related securities that we acquire will depend upon real estate market conditions, the amount of proceeds we raise in the Offering and other circumstances existing at the time we are acquiring such assets. We are not aware of any material trends or uncertainties, favorable or unfavorable, other than national economic conditions affecting real estate generally, that may be reasonably anticipated to have a material impact on either capital resources or the revenues or income to be derived from acquiring properties or real estate-related securities, other than those referred to in the latest prospectus for the Offering (FileNo. 333-220997).
Results of Operations
As of September 30, 2018, we were in our organizational period and had not commenced significant operations. We are dependent upon the proceeds from the Offering in order to conduct our investment activities. We intend to make investments with the capital received from the Offering and any indebtedness that we may incur in connection with our investment activities.
Our registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on December 27, 2017. As of September 30, 2018, we had neither purchased nor contracted to purchase any investments. During June, July and October 2018 an affiliate of the Advisor acquired a total of six multifamily properties from third parties, which had been specifically identified for us. It is our intention to acquire these properties from this affiliated entity following the date on which the proceeds from escrow are released.
On September 7, 2018, the Advisor entered into an Investment Management Agreement (the “Investment Management Agreement”) with BlackRock Financial Management, Inc. (“BlackRock”). Pursuant to the Investment Management Agreement, BlackRock will serve asa sub-advisor to the Advisor and act as the investment manager for our portfolio of real estate-related securities (the “Securities Portfolio”) and other investments that provide liquidity for our share repurchase plan, cash management and other purposes. The Securities Portfolio may comprise up to 20% of our assets. Under the terms of the Investment Management Agreement, BlackRock’s fee for its services shall be paid entirely by the Advisor and not by us.
We incurred general and administrative expenses of $47,450 during the period from January 1, 2018 through September 30, 2018. Such costs represent accounting and tax services.
The Company was capitalized on July 13, 2017 and therefore had limited activity during the first nine months of 2017.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary needs for liquidity and capital resources are to fund our investments, to make distributions to our stockholders, to repurchase shares of our common stock pursuant to our share repurchase plan, to pay our offering and operating fees and expenses and to pay interest on any outstanding indebtedness we may incur. We
11
Table of Contents
anticipate our offering and operating fees and expenses will include, among other things, the management fee we will pay to the Advisor, the performance participation allocation that the Operating Partnership will pay to the Special Limited Partner, stockholder servicing fees we will pay to the Dealer Manager, legal, audit and valuation expenses, federal and state filing fees, printing expenses, administrative fees, transfer agent fees, marketing and distribution expenses and fees related to acquiring, financing, appraising and managing our properties. We do not have any office or personnel expenses as we do not have any employees.
We will reimburse the Advisor for certainout-of-pocket expenses in connection with our operations. The Advisor has agreed to advance all of our organization and offering expenses on our behalf (other than upfront selling commissions, dealer manager fees and stockholder servicing fees) through the first anniversary of the date on which we break escrow in the Offering. We will reimburse the Advisor for such advanced expenses ratably over the 60 months following the first anniversary of the conclusion of the escrow period. After the first anniversary of the conclusion of the escrow period, we will reimburse the Advisor for any organization and offering expenses that it incurs on our behalf as and when such expenses are incurred. As of September 30, 2018, the Advisor had incurred approximately $5.0 million of organization and offering expenses on our behalf.
We intend to elect to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code, beginning with our taxable year ending December 31 of the year in which the escrow period for the Offering concludes. In order to maintain our qualification as a REIT, we are required to, among other things, distribute as dividends at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the dividends-paid deduction and excluding net capital gains, to our stockholders and meet certain tests regarding the nature of our income and assets.
Our cash needs for acquisitions will be funded primarily from the sale of shares of our common stock and through the assumption or incurrence of debt. Over time, we generally intend to fund our cash needs for items other than asset acquisitions from operations.
Although we have not received any commitments from lenders to fund a line of credit to date, we may decide to obtain a line of credit to fund acquisitions, to repurchase shares pursuant to our share repurchase plan and for any other corporate purpose. If we decide to obtain a line of credit, we would expect that it would afford us borrowing availability to fund repurchases. As our assets increase, however, it may not be commercially feasible or we may not be able to secure an adequate line of credit to fund share repurchases. Moreover, actual availability may be reduced at any given time if we use borrowings under the line of credit to fund share repurchases or for other corporate purposes.
Other potential future sources of capital include secured or unsecured financings from banks or other lenders and proceeds from the sale of assets. If necessary, we may use financings or other sources of capital in the event of unforeseen significant capital expenditures. We have not yet identified any sources for these types of financings.
Cash Flows
On July 13, 2017, the Company was capitalized with a $200,000 investment by Starwood Real Estate Income Holdings, L.P., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Sponsor. There have been no other cash flows from the Company’s inception through September 30, 2018.
Critical Accounting Policies
Below is a discussion of the accounting policies that management believes will be critical once we commence operations. We consider these policies critical because they involve significant judgments and assumptions and require estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain and because they are important for understanding and evaluating our reported financial results. Our accounting policies have been established to conform with GAAP. The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to use
12
Table of Contents
judgments in the application of such policies. These judgments will affect our reported amounts of assets and liabilities and our disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. With different estimates or assumptions, materially different amounts could be reported in our financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses.
Reimbursement of Organization and Offering Expenses
The Advisor has agreed to advance organization and offering expenses on our behalf (including legal, accounting, and other expenses attributable to the organization, but excluding upfront selling commissions, dealer manager fees and stockholder servicing fees) through the first anniversary of the date on which escrow is released. The Company will reimburse the Advisor for all such advanced expenses ratably over a 60 month period following the first anniversary of the date escrowed funds are released.
When recorded by us, organizational expenses will be expensed as incurred, and offering expenses will be charged to stockholders’ equity. Any amount due to the Advisor but not paid will be recognized as a liability on the consolidated balance sheets.
Principles of Consolidation and Variable Interest Entities
The FASB has recently issued guidance that clarifies the methodology for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) and the methodology for assessing who is the primary beneficiary of a VIE. VIEs are defined as entities in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. A VIE is required to be consolidated by its primary beneficiary, and only by its primary beneficiary, which is defined as the party with both the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE.
There are judgments and estimates involved in determining if an entity in which we will make an investment will be a VIE and if so, if we will be the primary beneficiary. The entity will be evaluated to determine if it is a VIE by, among other things, calculating the percentage of equity being risked compared to the total equity of the entity. The minimum equity at risk percentage can vary depending upon the industry or the type of operations of the entity and it will be up to us to determine that minimum percentage as it relates to our business and the facts surrounding each of our acquisitions. In addition, even if the entity’s equity at risk is a very low percentage, we will be required to evaluate the equity at risk compared to the entity’s expected future losses to determine if there could still in fact be sufficient equity at the entity. Determining expected future losses involves assumptions of various possibilities of the results of future operations of the entity, assigning a probability to each possibility and using a discount rate to determine the net present value of those future losses. A change in the judgments, assumptions and estimates outlined above could result in consolidating an entity that had not been previously consolidated or accounting for an investment on the equity method that had been previously consolidated, the effects of which could be material to our results of operations and financial condition.
Real Estate Joint Ventures and Partnerships
To determine the method of accounting for partially owned real estate joint ventures and partnerships, management evaluates the characteristics of associated entities and determines whether an entity is a VIE and, if so, determines if we are the primary beneficiary by analyzing whether we have both the power to direct the entity’s significant economic activities and the obligation to absorb potentially significant losses or receive potentially significant benefits. Significant judgments and assumptions inherent in this analysis include the
13
Table of Contents
design of the entity structure, the nature of the entity’s operations, future cash flow projections, the entity’s financing and capital structure, and contractual relationships and terms. We consolidate a VIE when we have determined that we are the primary beneficiary.
Primary risks associated with our potential VIEs may include the potential funding of the entities’ debt obligations or making additional contributions to fund the entities’ operations.
Partially owned,non-variable interest real estate joint ventures and partnerships over which we have a controlling financial interest are consolidated in our consolidated financial statements. In determining if we have a controlling financial interest, we consider factors such as ownership interest, authority to make decisions,kick-out rights and substantive participating rights. Partially owned real estate joint ventures and partnerships where we do not have a controlling financial interest, but have the ability to exercise significant influence, are accounted for using the equity method.
Management will analyze and assess reconsideration events, including changes in the factors mentioned above, to determine if a consolidation treatment remains appropriate. Decisions regarding consolidation of partially owned entities frequently require significant judgment by our management. Errors in the assessment of consolidation could result in material changes to our consolidated financial statements.
Investment Property and Lease Intangibles
Acquisitions of properties will be accounted for utilizing the acquisition method and, accordingly, the results of operations of acquired properties will be included in our results of operations from their respective dates of acquisition. Estimates of future cash flows and other valuation techniques that we believe are similar to those used by independent appraisers will be used to record the purchase of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed such as land, buildings and improvements, equipment and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities such as amounts related toin-place leases, acquired above- and below-market leases, tenant relationships, asset retirement obligations and mortgage notes payable. Values of buildings and improvements will be determined on anas-if-vacant basis. Initial valuations may be subject to change until such information is finalized, no later than 12 months from the acquisition date.
The estimated fair value of acquiredin-place leases will be the costs we would have incurred to lease the properties to the occupancy level of the properties at the date of acquisition. Such estimates include the fair value of leasing commissions, legal costs and other direct costs that would be incurred to lease the properties to such occupancy levels. Additionally, we will evaluate the time period over which such occupancy levels would be achieved. Such evaluation will include an estimate of the net market-based rental revenues and net operating costs (primarily consisting of real estate taxes, insurance and utilities) that would be incurred during thelease-up period. Acquiredin-place leases as of the date of acquisition will be amortized over the remaining lease terms.
Acquired above- and below-market lease values will be recorded based on the present value (using an interest rate that reflects the risks associated with the lease acquired) of the difference between the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to thein-place leases and management’s estimate of fair market value lease rates for the correspondingin-place leases. The capitalized above- and below-market lease values will be amortized as adjustments to rental revenue over the remaining terms of the respective leases, which include periods covered by bargain renewal options. Should a tenant terminate its lease, the unamortized portion of thein-place lease value will be charged to amortization expense and the unamortized portion ofout-of-market lease value will be charged to rental revenue.
Value of Real Estate Portfolio
We will review our future real estate portfolio to ascertain if there are any indicators of impairment in the value of any of our real estate assets, including deferred costs and intangibles, in order to determine if there is any need for an impairment charge. In reviewing the portfolio, we will examine the type of asset, the economic situation in
14
Table of Contents
the area in which the asset is located, the economic situation in the industry in which the tenant is involved and the timeliness of the payments made by the tenant under its lease, as well as any current correspondence that may have been had with the tenant, including property inspection reports. For each real estate asset owned for which indicators of impairment exist, if the undiscounted cash flow analysis yields an amount which is less than the asset’s carrying amount, an impairment loss will be recorded to the extent that the estimated fair value is lower than the asset’s carrying amount. The estimated fair value may be determined using a discounted cash flow analysis of the property. Real estate assets that are expected to be disposed of are valued at the lower of the asset’s carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell on an individual asset basis. Any impairment charge taken with respect to any part of our real estate portfolio will reduce our earnings and assets to the extent of the amount of any impairment charge, but it will not affect our cash flow or our distributions until such time as we dispose of the property.
Revenue Recognition
Our revenues, which we expect will be substantially derived from rental income and payments received in connection with our real estate-related debt investments, will include rental income that our tenants pay in accordance with the terms of their respective leases reported on a straight-line basis over the initial lease term of each lease. Since we expect many of our leases will provide for rental increases at specified intervals, straight line basis accounting requires us to record as an asset and include in revenues unbilled rent receivables, in addition to rents that have been previously billed and not collected, which we will only receive if the tenant makes all rent payments required through expiration of the initial term of the lease. Accordingly, management must determine, in its judgment, that the billed and unbilled rents receivable applicable to each specific tenant are collectible. We will review billed and unbilled rent receivables and take into consideration the tenant’s payment history and the financial condition of the tenant. In the event that the collectability of a billed or unbilled rent receivable is in doubt, we will be required to take a reserve against the receivable or a directwrite-off of the receivable, which will have an adverse effect on earnings for the year in which the reserve or directwrite-off is taken.
Rental revenue will also include amortization of above- and below-market leases. Revenues relating to lease termination fees will be recognized at the time that a tenant’s right to occupy the leased space is terminated.
Income Taxes
Provided that we make a timely election and qualify as a REIT, we will not be subject to federal income tax with respect to the portion of our income that meets certain criteria and is distributed annually to stockholders. We intend to operate in a manner that allows us to meet the requirements for taxation as a REIT. Many of these requirements, however, are highly technical and complex. We will monitor the business and transactions that may potentially impact our REIT status. If we were to fail to meet these requirements, we could be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates. We would not be able to deduct distributions paid to stockholders in any year in which we fail to qualify as a REIT. We would also be disqualified for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification was lost unless we were entitled to relief under specific statutory provisions.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We currently have nooff-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
We had no significant operations as of September 30, 2018. When we commence our principal operations, we expect that our primary market risk exposure will be interest rate risk with respect to our indebtedness, and credit
15
Table of Contents
risk with respect to our real estate investments, real estate debt-related investments and the use of derivative financial instruments, and market risk with respect to the use of derivative financial instruments. As of September 30, 2018, we had no indebtedness, real estate investments or real estate-related debt investments and did not use any derivative instruments.
We may be exposed to interest rate changes primarily, as a result, of long-term debt used to maintain liquidity, fund capital expenditures and expand our investment portfolio and operations. Market fluctuations in real estate financing may affect the availability and cost of funds needed to expand our investment portfolio. In addition, restrictions upon the availability of real estate financing or high interest rates for real estate loans could adversely affect our ability to dispose of real estate in the future. We will seek to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. We may use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to changes in interest rates on loans secured by our assets.
Also, we will be exposed to both credit risk and market risk. We will be exposed to credit risk of the tenants that occupy properties that we own. To mitigate such risk, we intend to undertake a rigorous credit evaluation of each tenant prior to making an investment. This analysis includes an extensive due diligence investigation of a potential tenant’s creditworthiness and business, as well as an assessment of the strategic importance of the property to the tenant’s core business operations.
Additionally, we will be exposed to credit risk in the real estate-related debt investments that we intend to make with respect to a borrower’s ability to make required interest and principal payments on scheduled due dates. We will manage such risk by conducting a credit analysis prior to making an investment, actively monitoring our portfolio and the underlying credit quality, including subordination and diversification of our real estate-related debt portfolio.
Finally, we are subject to credit risk in the form of the failure of a counterparty to perform under the terms of a derivative contract. If the fair value of a derivative contract is positive, the counterparty will owe us, which creates credit risk for us. If the fair value of a derivative contract is negative, we will owe the counterparty and, therefore, do not have credit risk. We will seek to minimize the credit risk in derivative instruments by entering into transactions with high-quality counterparties.
Market risk is the adverse effect on the value of a financial instrument that results from a change in interest rates. The market risk associated with interest-rate contracts is managed by establishing and monitoring parameters that limit the types and degree of market risk that may be undertaken. With regard to variable rate financing, we will assess our interest rate cash flow risk by continually identifying and monitoring changes in interest rate exposures that may adversely impact expected future cash flows and by evaluating hedging opportunities. We will maintain risk management control systems to monitor interest rate cash flow risk attributable to both our outstanding and forecasted debt obligations as well as our potential offsetting hedge positions. While this hedging strategy will be designed to minimize the impact on our net income and funds from operations from changes in interest rates, the overall returns on our investments may be reduced. Our board of directors has not yet established policies and procedures regarding our use of derivative financial instruments for hedging or other purposes.
ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
An evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rule13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form10-Q was made under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”). Based upon this evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and
