AIR Communities Reports Strong Start to 2023, First Quarter Same Store:
•Controllable Operating Expenses Down 0.2%
•Year-Over-Year NOI Up 12.7%
Denver, Colorado, May 1, 2023 – Apartment Income REIT Corp. (“AIR”) (NYSE: AIRC) announced today results for first quarter 2023.
Terry Considine, Chief Executive Officer, comments: “AIR's' first quarter results were on plan.
“In our Same Store portfolio, revenue was up 10.1%; expenses were up 3.3%; and Net Operating Income was up 12.7%. Profitability leads all peers: margin widened to 73.9%; conversion of revenue to Free Cash Flow improved to 66.2%; and controllable operating expenses were down 20-basis points. Rental rate increases in Signed New Leases, a key forward indicator, remain strong.
“In our Acquisition portfolio, results improved at a still faster clip.
Considine added: “These remarkable results have many causes. Some are:
•Customers stay with us longer, reducing turnover and related costs
•Our long-tenured service teams are highly and increasingly productive
•Process improvements, including enhanced technology and digital transformation
•The cumulative effect of a relentless focus on root causes
•Customers have high incomes and are willing to pay higher rents for further improvements to their apartment homes
“Notwithstanding a turbulent economy and competitive markets, our forecast for the balance of the year is for more of the same”.
Paul Beldin, Chief Financial Officer, comments further: “AIR’s balance sheet is well positioned for today's unpredictable capital markets. AIR has $1.8 billion of liquidity, with sufficient committed credit to repay all debt that comes due during the next six years. Interest rate risk during the next two years is limited to our floating rate debt: 4% of net leverage. A change of 100-basis points impacts bottom line by less than a penny per share.
“Net Leverage to Adjusted EBITDAre is elevated by borrowings to fund the acquisition of Southgate Towers and by seasonal fluctuations in property operating expenses and offsite costs. Proceeds from planned property sales will be used to reduce outstanding debt. The earn-in of current rental rates will lead to increased property income. The ratio of leverage to income is expected to decline over the balance of the year to 5.9x.
“First quarter 2023 Pro forma FFO of $0.55 per share was equal to the midpoint of our guidance due to outperformance in Same Store operations, offset by higher than anticipated casualty losses.
“Rent growth remains strong, although lower than the prior year due to slowing of the rate of inflation.
“Looking forward we are narrowing the range of our expectations for 2023 Pro forma FFO per share by $0.02 per share, while maintaining the $2.41 midpoint”.

First quarter 2023 Same Store NOI margin was 73.9%, up 170-basis points from the first quarter of 2022, benefiting from a 10.0% increase in residential rents due to: fewer apartments available to rent as a result of increased retention; the increased income of our customer base; the effectiveness of our leasing teams; and dynamic capital allocation, including the fast-growing Southeast Florida market and durable property upgrades that command substantial rent premiums.
Components of Same Store Revenue Growth – The table below summarizes the change in the components of our Same Store Revenue growth.
| | | | | | | | | |
| | FIRST QUARTER 2023 |
Same Store Revenue Components | | Year-over-Year | Sequential |
Residential Rents | | | 10.0 | % | | | 0.3 | % | |
Average Daily Occupancy | | | (0.4 | %) | | | 0.5 | % | |
Residential Rental Income | | | 9.6 | % | | | 0.8 | % | |
Bad Debt, net of recoveries | | | 0.1 | % | | | (0.1 | %) | |
Late Fees and Other | | | 0.5 | % | | | (2.3 | %) | |
Residential Revenue | | | 10.2 | % | | | (1.6 | %) | |
Commercial Revenue | | | (0.1 | %) | | | 2.3 | % | |
Same Store Revenue Growth | | | 10.1 | % | | | 0.7 | % | |
Same Store Rental Rates – Changes in rental rates are measured by comparing, on a lease-by-lease basis, the effective rate on a newly executed lease to the effective rate on the expiring lease for the same apartment. A newly executed lease is classified as a "new lease", where an apartment is leased to a new customer, or as a "renewal".

The table below shows changes in lease rates, as well as the weighted-average blended lease rates for leases executed in the respective period. Transacted leases are those that became effective during a reporting period and are therefore the best measure of immediate effect on current revenues. Signed leases are those executed during a reporting period and are therefore the best measure of current pricing and an important driver of future results.

*Amounts are based on our current Same Store population and may differ from those previously reported.
**April leasing results are preliminary and as of April 30, 2023. The 90-basis point sequential decline in Average Daily Occupancy ("ADO") from March to April was consistent with expectations, as we plan for higher frictional vacancy during the six-month leasing season.
First quarter lease rates were consistent with the assumptions of our annual plan, and reflect a slowing pace of growth due to lower inflation. ADO declined 40 basis points year-over-year and while demand was lower than 2022's record breaking levels it was consistent with our expectations and in-line with historical norms. AIR's signed new leases and renewals were up 8.7% and 8.4%, respectively. Blended rates were up 8.6%, inclusive of a 20-basis point benefit from the class of 2021, a 90-basis point benefit from revenue enhancing investments in capital improvements, and a 110-basis point benefit due to our allocation to the Southeast Florida market.
Inflation – In recent years, apartment investors benefited from declining cap rates, low cost of leverage, and inflation. As inflation eases and interest and cap rates normalize, investment results may be expected to be more influenced by such operational metrics as resident retention and cost control.
Recent Acquisitions – Recent acquisitions include ten properties acquired in 2021, 2022, and 2023. In aggregate, these acquisitions represent approximately 17% of AIR GAV. Operating results are improving significantly due to the AIR Edge. The changes made by AIR to improve the resident profile, optimize the rent roll, reduce costs, and make other income generating improvements. These changes are typically iterative with results lagging until earned in as leases expire and new leases made. The impacts of the AIR Edge are generally most significant between the second and fourth year of ownership, during which time profitability increases much faster than in Same Store. This outperformance contributes substantially to our ability to meet our investment targets of unlevered internal rates of return (“IRR”) above 10%, and more than 200-basis points above AIR’s cost of capital.
The five properties acquired in 2021 represent 8% of GAV and are now included in the Same Store portfolio. In the first quarter, revenues increased 16.3% and expenses declined by 2.3%, providing 27.3% NOI growth. These results contributed an incremental 60-basis points to Same Store revenue growth, a negative 80-basis points to Same Store expense growth, and 130-basis points to Same Store NOI growth.
The four properties acquired in 2022 represent 6% of GAV and are part of our Acquisition portfolio. In the first quarter, ADO increased by 100-basis points and revenue grew by 5.5% sequentially. The three Florida properties continue to perform in line with underwriting. The fourth property, Willard Towers, is located in Chevy Chase, MD. We have concluded that the strength of the submarket supports a more transformational capital program than originally planned. We expect this will generate an unlevered IRR higher than previously underwritten.
5
Southgate Towers, acquired earlier this year, represents 3% of GAV and is also part of our Acquisition portfolio. In the first 90 days of AIR ownership, ADO increased by 120-basis points above underwriting, reflecting the continuing strong demand in South Beach.
Rent Collection and Bad Debt
We measure residential rent collection as the dollar value of payments received and as a percent of all amounts billed for residential uses. We establish a reserve for amounts not collected during or immediately after the period when due unless such amounts are otherwise secured by, for example, a security deposit or credit worthy guarantee. Our experience has been that we collect essentially all past due rent that is not reserved and we are optimistic that we will also be successful in collecting a portion of amounts currently reserved, as we have in the past.
During the first quarter, we recognized 98.3% of all residential revenue billed in the quarter as paid currently or adequately secured. The remaining 1.7% of revenue was reserved as gross bad debt. Payments received during the first quarter with respect to revenue treated as bad debt in previous periods, including payments from residents, previous residents, guarantors, and government programs, totaled 40-basis points of first quarter residential revenue. Receipt of these monies reduced reserves previously established and was recognized as a contra entry to bad debt. Bad debt for the first quarter, net of the contra entry, was 1.3% of residential revenue.
Of the 1.3% net bad debt, 62% (or 80-basis points) related to rents due (i) with respect to properties in the City or County of Los Angeles where local government afforded residents relief from what was owed, or (ii) in other jurisdictions where courts were operating with a backlog from the government shutdown in response to the pandemic. 38% (or 50-basis points) reflected normal credit issues. Los Angeles’ restrictions on landlord access to typical creditor remedies have since been repealed, and courts across the nation are working through existing backlogs. We expect bad debt to normalize by year end at about 50-basis points.
As of March 31, 2023, our proportionate share of residential accounts receivable was $6.7 million, a 10% reduction from the start of the year. After consideration of security deposits and reserves for uncollectible amounts, our net exposure was less than $0.1 million. The number of residents delinquent by two or more months was 160, a 36% reduction from approximately 250 at the start of the year. During April, the number of residents delinquent by two or more months declined further to 130; all of which are now in the collection process.
Insurance Update
Insurance costs included within AIR property results include hazard, together with health, general liability, and workers compensation costs. Year-over-year expenses vary with experience as AIR’s health, general liability and workers compensation coverages are largely self-insured with caps for out of the ordinary claims. In 2022, AIR benefited from lower than typical health care, general liability, and workers compensation costs. As a result, our 2023 budget included an approximately 20% increase assuming that claims revert to their longer-term trends.
Separately, we also budgeted for a significant increase in property hazard insurance. The current market is challenging, inflation has increased replacement costs, and insurers have experienced substantial losses. On the other hand, AIR is valued as a customer for the quality of our portfolio, the high credit characteristics of our residents, our loss control including the systematic mitigation and elimination of root causes of losses, plus our retention of losses at routine levels, and our use of insurance primarily for out of the ordinary claims. These qualities make AIR a highly profitable customer; carriers received from AIR $53 million in premiums during the past seven years…and paid only $13.8 million in losses.
In AIR’s March 1, 2023, renewal, we continued our insurance, broadly with the same coverages and same highly rated insurers as in the past several years. Importantly, we maintained coverages for full replacement costs, without material margin limits or substantial co-insurance. We lowered our self-insured retention to $5 million, a level $3 million above typical losses, increased total insurable value by approximately 11%, and purchased coverage, including Windstorm and California Quake, with limits that are consistent with, or greater than, the
6
250-year probable maximum loss. The sufficiency of this insurance is evidenced by its acceptance by our property lenders whose repayment is entirely dependent on the value of the property insured.
For our Same Store population, the cost of the renewal is up 40% year-over-year and approximately $1 million, greater than anticipated in January. This increase to budgeted expenses is expected to be offset by lower than budgeted controllable operating expenses and real estate taxes.
Portfolio Management
Our portfolio of apartment communities is diversified across eight core markets in the United States and is also diversified by price points, primarily “A” and “B”, averaging “A-” in quality. Since the Separation at year-end 2020, AIR has sold properties for $4.1 billion, approximately 41% of AIR’s gross asset value, and used $2.2 billion to reduce leverage and $1.9 billion to acquire properties that improve the quality and expected profitability of our real estate portfolio. The $1.9 billion of acquisitions since 2021 represents 17% of AIR GAV and their incomes are growing faster than Same Store income. (Please see “Recent Acquisitions” above.) We expect to make further acquisitions and to increase our allocation to higher growth properties.
AIR uses “paired trades” to fund acquisitions, basing our cost of capital on the anticipated unlevered IRR of the communities or joint venture interests sold. We require a spread, or accretion, also measured by an unlevered IRR, higher by 200-basis points or more from the communities acquired. This excess return is driven in part by what we call the AIR Edge, the cumulative result of our focus on resident selection, satisfaction, and retention, continuing property upgrades, and relentless innovation in delivering best-in-class property management.
The chart below shows changes in portfolio quality based on customer incomes and apartment rents.

Redevelopment and Development ($M) | $— | $230 | ($230) |
Mezzanine Investments ($M) | $— | $280 | ($280) |
Over the same period, we have improved AIR’s portfolio by reducing our exposure to regulatory risk. We have achieved this through property sales in the New York City, Chicago, Seattle, and California markets, as well as through a strategic joint venture in California. This has allowed AIR to reallocate capital into states such as Florida, with a more predictable rule of law, and into submarkets such as Miami-Dade and Broward counties with higher growth.
As a paired trade investor, AIR is agnostic to market changes insofar as we buy and sell properties in the same market conditions, with focus on gaining an accretive “spread.” As market conditions change, AIR adjusts target returns and spreads to reflect our changed cost of capital. Our paired trade approach is intended to ensure that new acquisitions are accretive to earnings in the near-term and will generate attractive spreads to unlevered IRRs in the long-term.
Transactions
Acquisitions
As previously announced, in January, 2023 AIR acquired for $298 million, Southgate Towers, a 495-unit luxury apartment community with 29,000 square feet of commercial space located in the South Beach neighborhood of Miami Beach. AIR’s presence in South Beach, a submarket with limited competitive supply, now comprises 1,630
7
apartment homes between Flamingo Towers and Southgate Towers. This transaction demonstrates AIR’s use of distinctive acquisition currencies including the cash proceeds from the fourth quarter 2022 sale of our New England portfolio, the assumption of $101.2 million of property debt maturing in 2036 with interest at 4.15%, and the issuance of $22.4 million of Operating Partnership Units (“OP Units”). The acquisition is expected to provide an unlevered IRR 200-basis points or higher than our cost of capital, driven by the implementation of the AIR Edge.
Dispositions
There were no dispositions in the first quarter of 2023.
Balance Sheet
We seek to increase financial returns by using leverage with appropriate caution. We limit risk through our balance sheet structure, employing low leverage and primarily long-dated debt. We target a Net Leverage to Adjusted EBITDAre ratio between 5.0x and 6.0x but anticipate the actual ratio will vary based on the timing of transactions. We maintain financial flexibility through ample unused and available credit, holding properties with substantial value unencumbered by property debt, maintaining an investment grade rating, and using partners’ capital when it enhances financial returns or reduces investment risk. We seek to minimize refunding and repricing risk.
Components of Leverage
Our leverage includes AIR’s share of long-term, non-recourse property debt secured by our apartment communities, together with outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility, term loans, unsecured notes payable, and preferred equity.

* Amounts are presented on a rounded basis and the sum of the individual amounts may not foot; please refer to Supplemental Schedule 5.
** AIR’s Preferred equity is perpetual in nature; however, for illustrative purposes, we have computed the weighted-average maturity of our preferred OP Units assuming a 10-year maturity, and of our preferred stock assuming it is called at the expiration of its no-call period.
*** AIR plans to reduce leverage to its target of < 6x by completion of pending sales and property NOI growth.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, and on a leverage neutral basis, AIR borrowed $320 million using 10-year fixed rate financing, bearing interest at 4.9%. We used the proceeds to refinance a floating-rate loan and to reduce by $230 million borrowings on our revolving credit facility. This transaction reduced floating-rate debt not subject to interest rate caps or swaps to $120 million, 4% of outstanding leverage, net of cash on-hand, and increased our weighted-average maturity by nine months. As a result of these transactions, AIR has no debt maturing before the second quarter of 2025. As a result of the Fannie Mae facility described below, AIR has established funding sources that could be used to repay all debt maturing before 2030.

Liquidity
We use our revolving credit facility for working capital and other short-term purposes, and to secure letters of credit. At March 31, 2023, our share of cash and restricted cash, excluding amounts related to tenant security deposits, was $97 million (invested in interests in federal government obligations) and we had the capacity to borrow up to $751 million on our $1 billion revolving credit facility.
In April, we established a secured credit facility with Fannie Mae that provides for up to $1 billion of committed property level financing, on an as needed basis. This facility has minimal upfront costs, a 10-year duration, allows for the removal and substitution of properties, and is priced based on the Fannie Mae grid, which usually and today is lower than public and private bond pricing. After consideration of the secured facility, total liquidity is approximately $1.8 billion.
We manage our financial flexibility by maintaining investment grade ratings that enhance access to debt capital markets, and holding communities unencumbered by property debt that provide access to secured lenders and, in particular, the attractive availability and pricing of Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac. As of March 31, 2023, we held apartment communities unencumbered by debt with an estimated fair market value of approximately $7.1 billion.
Dividend and Equity Capital Markets
On April 25, 2023, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.45 per share of Common Stock. This amount is payable on May 30, 2023, to shareholders of record on May 19, 2023. In setting AIR’s 2023 dividend, our Board of Directors targeted a dividend level of approximately 75% of full year FFO per share (83% of expected AFFO).
We expect that the after-tax dividend will benefit from AIR's refreshed tax basis. In 2022, approximately 86% of our dividend was taxable at capital gain rates, with the remainder taxable at ordinary income rates. We believe the tax characteristics of our dividend makes our stock more attractive to taxable investors, such as foreign investors, taxable individuals, and corporations, than dividends paid by peer REITs whose dividends are taxed at higher rates. For example, AIR’s dividend characteristics in 2022 compare favorably to a peer average of approximately 19% at capital gains rates (vs. AIR at 86%), 71% at ordinary income rates (vs. AIR at 14%), and 10% treated as return of capital. As a result, an investor in AIR common shares would retain after tax approximately 39% more of its dividend than would be retained after tax by an investor in the average of peer shares.
Corporate Responsibility Update
During the first quarter, AIR was named a Kingsley Excellence Elite Five multifamily company and a winner of the 2023 Kingsley Excellence Awards for customer service. Of the winners, AIR ranked second among all operators, and first among publicly traded REITs. AIR is committed to world-class customer service, which we deliver through listening to, learning from, and responding to our residents every day. We also benefit from the support of great leadership, contributions from exceptional teammates, and a strong culture. These strengths are confirmed by such awards as AIR's 2023 Top Workplaces USA Award (the second consecutive year), a 10 time winner of Top Workplace in Colorado (by the Denver Post), Top Workplace in Philadelphia (by The Philadelphia Inquirer), as well as Built in 2023 Best Places to Work in Colorado, Los Angeles, Miami, and Washington, DC. We take seriously our responsibility to care for our customers, our neighbors, and each other as teammates. We are grateful for these recognitions and consider them confirmation of our success.

In addition, our current and continuing qualification as a real estate investment trust involves the application of highly technical and complex provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and depends on our ability to meet the various requirements imposed by the Code, through actual operating results, distribution levels and diversity of stock ownership.

(1)In 2018 and 2022, we assumed 99-year ground leases with scheduled rent increases. Due to the terms of the leases, GAAP rent expense will exceed cash rent payments until 2076 and 2079, respectively. We include the cash rent payments for these ground leases in Pro forma FFO but exclude the incremental straight-line non-cash rent expense. The rent expense for these leases is included in other expenses, net, in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
(2)During 2023, we entered into certain treasury locks in anticipation of future financing transactions that do not meet GAAP requirements for hedge accounting treatment. As such, we are required to mark-to-market the fair value of these derivatives quarterly through net income. We have excluded the fair value adjustment from Pro forma FFO as the loss is non-cash and currently unrealized.
(3)During 2023 and 2022, we incurred debt extinguishment costs related to the prepayment of debt. In 2023, these costs are related to the prepayment of high-cost, floating-rate debt. We excluded these costs from Pro forma FFO because we believe they are not representative of future cash flows.
(4)During 2023 and 2022, we incurred consulting, placement, legal, and other transformation related costs as we fully implement AIR’s business model, including projects intended to increase efficiency and reduce costs in future periods. As we engage in and finalize our finance transformation initiative that modernizes our systems and processes, including a new ERP system, we expect to continue to incur these costs throughout 2023. We excluded these costs from Pro forma FFO because we believe they are not related to ongoing operating performance.
(5)During 2023, we incurred casualty losses related to fire damage at our Palazzo East at Park La Brea apartment community. During 2021, we incurred casualty losses due to Hurricane Ida-induced flooding in downtown Philadelphia causing damage to our Park Towne Place apartment community, and continued to incur incremental costs related to its cleanup in 2022. We excluded these costs from Pro forma FFO because of the unusual nature of the weather events.

The building blocks of FFO and Pro forma FFO, as shown on Supplemental Schedule 2(a), are based on consolidated amounts, and therefore include the third-party share of consolidated joint ventures, and exclude AIR’s share of amounts from unconsolidated real estate partnerships. To arrive at AIR’s proportionate share of the individual line items, one must subtract the third-party share of consolidated amounts and add AIR’s share of unconsolidated joint ventures.
For example, Net Operating Income for the first quarter of 2023 of $145,301, as shown on Supplemental Schedule 2(a), plus AIR's share of Net Operating Income from unconsolidated real estate partnerships of $1,582, as shown below, less the noncontrolling interests' share of Net Operating Income of $11,610, as shown below, computes AIR's share of Net Operating Income for the first quarter of 2023 of $135,273.

Apartment Community Capital Investment Information
Three Months Ended March 31, 2023
(proportionate amounts, in thousands, except per apartment home data) (unaudited)
We classify capital investments as Capital Replacements (“CR”), Capital Improvements (“CI”), Capital Enhancements (“CE”), or Other Capital Expenditures. Recurring capital investments are apportioned between CR and CI based on the useful life of the item under consideration and the period over which we have owned the item. Under this method of classification, CR represents the portion of the item consumed during our ownership of the item, while CI represents the portion of the item consumed prior to our period of ownership.
The table below includes our capital spend in proportionate amounts, adjusted to remove the third-party share of consolidated amounts and to include our share of unconsolidated amounts, and excludes amounts related to properties sold or classified as held for sale.

GLOSSARY AND RECONCILIATIONS OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL AND OPERATING MEASURES
This Earnings Release and Supplemental Information include certain financial and operating measures used by AIR management that are not calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). Our definitions and calculations of these non-GAAP financial and operating measures and other terms may differ from the definitions and methodologies used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable. These non-GAAP financial and operating measures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP net income or any other GAAP measurement of performance and should not be considered an alternative measure of liquidity.
AIR OPERATING PARTNERSHIP: Apartment Income REIT, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, is the operating partnership in AIR’s UPREIT structure. AIR owns approximately 91.2% of the legal interest in the common partnership units of the AIR Operating Partnership and 93.3% of the economic interest in the common partnership units of the AIR Operating Partnership.
AIR PROPORTIONATE FINANCIAL INFORMATION: Within this Earnings Release and Supplemental Information, we provide certain financial information necessary to calculate our share of financial information. This information is not, nor is it intended to be, a presentation in accordance with GAAP. Our proportionate share of financial information includes our share of unconsolidated real estate partnerships and excludes the noncontrolling interest partners’ share of consolidated real estate partnerships.
We do not control the unconsolidated real estate partnerships and the calculation of our share of the assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses does not represent a legal claim to a proportionate share of such items. The amount of cash distributions partners in such partnerships may receive is based upon specific provisions in the partnership agreements and may vary based on whether such distributions are generated from operations, capital events or liquidation.
Proportionate information benefits the users of our financial information by providing the amount of revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities, and other items attributable to our stockholders. Other companies may calculate their proportionate information differently than we do, limiting the usefulness as a comparative measure. Because of these limitations, the non-GAAP AIR proportionate financial information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for information included in our financial statements as reported under GAAP.
AVERAGE REVENUE PER APARTMENT HOME: Represents our proportionate average monthly rental and other property revenues, excluding utility cost reimbursements, divided by the number of occupied apartment homes as of the end of the period.
CAPITAL INVESTMENTS DEFINITIONS
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS (CI): CI represent capital investments made to replace the portion of acquired apartment communities consumed prior to our period of ownership and not contemplated in our underwriting of an acquisition.
CAPITAL REPLACEMENTS (CR): Unlike CI, CR does not increase the useful life of an asset from its original purchase condition. CR represent capital investments made to replace the portion of acquired capital assets consumed during our period of ownership.
CAPITAL ENHANCEMENTS (CE): CE may include kitchen and bath remodeling; energy conservation projects; and investments in longer-lived materials designed to reduce costs. CE does not significantly disrupt property operations.
28
INITIAL CAPITAL EXPENDITURES (ICE): ICE represent capital investments contemplated in the underwriting at our recently acquired communities. These amounts are considered in the underwriting of the acquisition and are therefore included when determining expected returns.
CASUALTY: Casualty capital investments represent capitalized costs incurred in connection with the restoration of an apartment community after a casualty event.
FREE CASH FLOW: Free Cash Flow, as calculated for our retained portfolio, represents an apartment community’s property net operating income, less spending for Capital Replacements. Capital Replacement spending is a measure of the cost of capital asset used during the period. We believe that Free Cash Flow is useful to investors as a supplemental measure of apartment community performance because it takes into consideration costs incurred during the period to replace capital assets that have been consumed during our ownership.
FREE CASH FLOW CAP RATE: Free Cash Flow Cap Rate represents the NOI Cap Rate, adjusted for assumed Capital Replacements spending of $1,200 per apartment home.
FREE CASH FLOW MARGIN: Free Cash Flow Margin represents an apartment community’s property net operating income less $1,200 per apartment home of assumed annual Capital Replacement spending, as a percentage of the apartment community’s rental and other property revenues.
LEVERAGE RATIO DEFINITIONS
We target Net Leverage to Adjusted EBITDAre between 5.0x and 6.0x. We also focus on Proportionate Debt to Adjusted EBITDAre. We believe these ratios, which are based in part on non-GAAP financial information, are commonly used by investors and analysts to assess the relative financial risk associated with balance sheets of companies within the same industry, and they are believed to be similar to measures used by rating agencies to assess entity credit quality. EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre should not be considered alternatives to net income (loss) as determined in accordance with GAAP as indicators of performance. There can be no assurance that our method of calculating EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre is comparable with that of other real estate investment trusts.
Our net leverage includes our share of long-term, non-recourse property debt, outstanding borrowings on our revolving credit facility, term loans, unsecured notes payable, and preferred equity, reduced by cash and restricted cash on-hand, excluding tenant security deposits. We reconcile consolidated balances to our net leverage on Supplemental Schedule 5(a).
We calculate Adjusted EBITDAre used in our leverage ratios based on annualized current quarter amounts.
EBITDAre AND ADJUSTED EBITDAre
EARNINGS BEFORE INTEREST, TAXES, DEPRECIATION, AND AMORTIZATION FOR REAL ESTATE (“EBITDAre”): NAREIT defines EBITDAre as net income computed in accordance with GAAP, before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, further adjusted for:
•gains and losses on dispositions of depreciated property;
•impairment write-downs of depreciated property; and
•adjustments to reflect our share of EBITDAre of investments in unconsolidated entities and consolidated entities with non-controlling interests.
We believe that EBITDAre is useful to investors, creditors and rating agencies as a supplemental measure of our ability to incur and service debt because it is a recognized measure of performance by the real estate industry and facilitates comparison of credit strength between AIR and other companies.
29
ADJUSTED EBITDAre: Adjusted EBITDAre is defined as EBITDAre adjusted for the effect of the following items for the reasons set forth below:
•the amount by which GAAP rent expense exceeds cash rent payments for two long-term ground leases until 2076 and 2079 is excluded. The excess of GAAP rent expense over the cash payments for these leases does not reflect a current obligation that affects our ability to service debt; and
•applicable Pro forma FFO adjustments to NAREIT FFO per Supplemental Schedule 1 to exclude certain amounts that are unique or occur infrequently.
A reconciliation of net income to EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre for our portfolio for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, is as follows (in thousands, unaudited):

(1)Includes applicable pro forma adjustments to NAREIT FFO per Supplemental Schedule 1, and an adjustment of $0.1 million to reflect the acquisition of one property, as if the transaction closed on January 1, 2023.
FIXED CHARGE COVERAGE RATIO: As defined by our credit agreement, the ratio of (a) EBITDA to (b) fixed charges, which represent the sum of (i) our proportionate share of interest expense (excluding prepayment penalties and amortization of debt issuance costs), (ii) debt amortization, and (iii) Preferred Dividends, for the four fiscal quarters preceding the date of calculation. The calculation of certain of these measures as defined by our Credit Agreement may differ from those used in the calculations of our Leverage Ratios.
PREFERRED DIVIDENDS: Preferred Dividends include dividends paid with respect to AIR’s Preferred Stock and the AIR OP’s Preferred Partnership Units, exclusive of preferred equity redemption related amounts.
PREFERRED EQUITY: Preferred equity represents the redemption amounts for AIR’s Preferred Stock and the AIR OP’s Preferred Partnership Units and may be found in AIR’s consolidated balance sheets and on Supplemental Schedule 5(b).
OTHER LEVERAGE: Other Leverage includes Preferred OP Units and redeemable noncontrolling interests.
PREFERRED OP UNITS: Preferred OP Units represent the redemption amounts for the AIR OP’s Preferred Partnership Units and may be found in our consolidated balance sheets and on Supplemental Schedule 5(b).
PROPORTIONATE DEBT TO ADJUSTED EBITDAre RATIO: The ratio of (a) our share of net leverage as calculated on Supplemental Schedule 5(a), excluding Preferred Equity, to (b) Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre.
NET LEVERAGE TO ADJUSTED EBITDAre RATIO: The ratio of (a) our share of net leverage as calculated on Supplemental Schedule 5(a), to (b) Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre.
30
NAREIT FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS (NAREIT FFO): NAREIT FFO is a commonly used measure of REIT performance, which the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT) defines as net income computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding: (i) depreciation and amortization related to real estate; (ii) gains and losses from sales or impairment of depreciable assets and land used in the primary business of the REIT; (iii) and income taxes directly associated with a gain or loss on sale of real estate; and including (iv) our share of NAREIT FFO of unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We compute NAREIT FFO for all periods presented in accordance with the guidance set forth by NAREIT.
In addition to NAREIT FFO, we use PRO FORMA FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS (Pro forma FFO) to measure short-term performance. Pro forma FFO represents NAREIT FFO as defined above, excluding certain amounts that are unique or occur infrequently. Our pro forma adjustments are defined in further detail in the footnotes to Supplemental Schedule 1.
NAREIT FFO and Pro forma FFO are non-GAAP measures that we believe are helpful to investors in understanding our short-term performance because they capture features particular to real estate performance by recognizing that real estate assets generally appreciate over time or maintain residual value to a much greater extent than other capital assets such as machinery, computers or other personal property. NAREIT FFO and Pro forma FFO should not be considered alternatives to net income as determined in accordance with GAAP, as indicators of performance. There can be no assurance that our method of computing NAREIT FFO and Pro forma FFO is comparable with that of other real estate investment trusts.
NET OPERATING INCOME (NOI) CAP RATE: NOI Cap Rate is calculated based on our share of the proportionate property NOI for the trailing twelve months prior to sale, less a 3% management fee, divided by gross proceeds.
NET OPERATING INCOME (NOI) MARGIN: Represents an apartment community’s net operating income as a percentage of the apartment community’s rental and other property revenues.
OTHER EXPENSES, NET: Other expenses, net, allocated to contribution from real estate operations on Supplemental Schedule 2 generally includes franchise taxes, expenses specifically related to our administration of our real estate partnerships (for example, services such as audit, tax, and legal), and risk management activities related to certain other corporate expenses.
PROPERTY NET OPERATING INCOME (NOI) and PROPORTIONATE PROPERTY NOI: NOI is defined as total property rental and other property revenues less direct property operating expenses, including real estate taxes. NOI does not include: property management revenues; casualties; property management expenses; real estate depreciation; or interest expense. NOI is helpful because it helps both investors and management to understand the operating performance of real estate excluding costs associated with decisions about acquisition pricing, overhead allocations, and financing arrangements. NOI is also considered by many in the real estate industry to be a useful measure for determining the value of real estate. Reconciliations of NOI as presented in this Earnings Release and Supplemental Information to our consolidated GAAP amounts are provided below.
Due to the diversity of our economic ownership interests in our apartment communities in the periods presented, we evaluate the performance of the apartment communities in our segments using Proportionate Property NOI, which represents our share of the NOI for the apartment communities that we manage. Proportionate Property NOI is defined as our share of rental and other property revenue less our share of property operating expenses. In our evaluation of community results, we exclude utility cost reimbursement from rental and other property revenues and reflect such amount as a reduction of the related utility expense within property operating expenses.

(1)Approximately two-thirds of our utility costs are reimbursed by residents. These reimbursements are included in rental and other property revenues in our consolidated statements of operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. This adjustment represents the reclassification of utility reimbursements from revenues to property operating expenses for the purpose of evaluating segment results and as presented on Supplemental Schedule 2, Supplemental Schedule 3, and Supplemental Schedule 6. We also exclude the reimbursement amounts from the calculation of Average Revenue per Apartment Home throughout this Earnings Release and Supplemental Schedules.
(2)Sold properties and other amounts not allocated includes operating results of apartment communities sold during the periods shown or held for sale at the end of the period, property management revenues, as well as property management and casualty expense, which are not included in property operating expenses, net of utility reimbursements in the Supplemental Schedule 2 presentation.
(3)Expenses, net of utility reimbursements, property management expenses, net, and G&A includes the depreciation of capitalized
costs of non-real estate assets, which are included in depreciation and amortization expense in our consolidated statements of operations, in accordance with GAAP. This adjustment represents the reclassification of non-real estate depreciation, which was made in Supplemental
Schedules 2, 3, and 6.
(4)Proportionate adjustments represent both the noncontrolling interests’ share and AIR’s share of unconsolidated apartment communities’ rental and other property revenues before utility reimbursements and property operating expenses, net of utility reimbursements. Such adjustment is necessary to reconcile consolidated amounts presented on Supplemental Schedule 2 to the amounts allocated to our operating segments, as well as to reconcile Same Store amounts presented on Supplemental Schedule 2 to proportionate Same Store amounts presented on Supplemental Schedule 6.
PORTFOLIO QUALITY RATINGS: We measure the quality of apartment communities in our portfolio based on average rents of our apartment homes compared to local market average rents as reported by a third-party provider of commercial real estate performance and analysis. Under this rating system, we classify as “A” quality apartment communities those earning rents greater than 125% of local market average; as “B” quality apartment communities those earning rents between 90% and 125% of local market average.
REAL ESTATE CLASSIFICATIONS: Our portfolio of apartment communities is diversified by both price point and geography. Our portfolio is classified into two segments, as follows:
SAME STORE: Same Store apartment communities are apartment communities that (a) are owned and managed by AIR, and (b) have reached a stabilized level of operations.
OTHER REAL ESTATE: Includes communities that do not meet the criteria to be classified as Same Store.
SOLD AND HELD FOR SALE APARTMENT COMMUNITIES: Apartment communities either sold since January 1, 2022 or classified as held for sale at the end of the period. For purposes of highlighting results of operations related to our retained portfolio, results for Sold and Held For Sale Apartment Communities are
32
excluded from property net operating income and presented separately on a net basis on Supplemental Schedule 2.
TURNOVER and RETENTION: Turnover represents the percentage of residents who have moved out in the trailing twelve months. It is calculated by dividing the number of move outs in the trailing twelve months, exclusive of intra-community transfers, by the daily average number of occupied apartment homes during the trailing twelve months. At March 31, 2023, Turnover was 38.1%, 70-basis points lower than March 31, 2022. Inclusive of intra-community transfers, Turnover was 42.5% for the trailing twelve months ended March 31, 2023.
Retention represents the inverse of Turnover, as defined above.
