Sovran Self Storage Reports Fourth Quarter Results; Adjusted FFO per Share Increases 13.3%, Issues Guidance for 2016
BUFFALO, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--February 17, 2016--Sovran Self Storage, Inc. (NYSE:SSS), a self storage real estate investment trust (REIT), reported operating results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2015.
Fourth Quarter 2015 Highlights:
- Achieved adjusted funds from operations per fully diluted common share of $1.28, representing a 13.3% increase over the same period last year.
- Increased same store revenue by 6.7% and net operating income ("NOI")(1) by 7.8% as compared to the fourth quarter of 2014.
- Grew same store average occupancy for the quarter by 120 basis points to 90.5% compared to the same period in 2014. Same store occupancy at December 31, 2015, was 90.1%; a full 120 basis points over December 31, 2014.
- Paid a quarterly dividend of $0.85 per share of common stock.
- Achieved full year adjusted funds from operations per fully diluted common share of $4.94, representing a 13.3% increase over full year 2014 results. This is the Company’s fifth consecutive year of double digit percentage adjusted FFO growth.
- Attained credit rating upgrades from both Standard and Poor’s and Fitch (to BBB from BBB-). Moody’s Investors Service also initiated coverage with a ‘Baa2’ credit rating on the Company’s corporate credit and issue-level ratings.
Net income available to common shareholders for the fourth quarter of 2015 was $30.0 million or $0.83 per fully diluted common share. For the same period in 2014, net income available to common shareholders was $25.7 million or $0.76 per fully diluted common share.
Funds from operations (“FFO”)(2) for the quarter were $1.26 per fully diluted common share compared to $1.08 for the same period last year. Absent $0.6 million of acquisition costs incurred in the fourth quarter of 2015 and $1.9 million of acquisition costs and straight-line rent adjustments in the fourth quarter of 2014, adjusted FFO per fully diluted common share was $1.28 and $1.13 for the fourth quarter of 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Increased occupancy and rental rates were the primary contributors to the Company’s strong FFO growth during the quarter.
OPERATIONS:
Total revenues increased 11.9% over last year’s fourth quarter while operating costs increased 10.6%, resulting in an NOI increase of 12.5%. Overall occupancy averaged 89.8% for the period, and rental rates averaged $12.83 per sq. ft.
Revenues for the 399 stores wholly owned by the Company since January 1, 2014 increased 6.7% from those of the fourth quarter of 2014, the result of a 120 basis point increase in average occupancy, a 5.0% increase in rental rates and increases in tenant insurance administrative fees and other income.
Same store operating expenses increased 4.6% for the fourth quarter of 2015 compared to the prior year period, primarily the result of increased real estate taxes.
Consequently, same store net operating income increased 7.8% this period over the fourth quarter of 2014.
General and administrative expenses increased by approximately $1.1 million over the same period in 2014, primarily due to increases in personnel costs associated with operating 24 more stores during the quarter than at this time last year, and legal fees. Beginning with the first quarter of 2015, the company reclassified internet marketing costs from general and administrative expenses to property operations expense for all periods presented so as to be consistent with industry practices.
During the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company experienced same store revenue growth in 28 of its 29 major markets in the same store pool. Overall, the markets with the strongest revenue impact include those in Florida, New York and Georgia.
For the full year 2015, same store revenues increased by 6.2% and same store NOI improved by 7.9%. Same store occupancy at December 31, 2015 increased by 120 basis points over that of December 31, 2014 to 90.1%.
PROPERTIES:
During the quarter, the Company acquired one store near Philadelphia, PA at a cost of approximately $6.6 million. It also sold two non-strategic facilities in South Carolina for approximately $4.0 million. Both were acquired as part of a portfolio purchased in September, 2015.
As described in its prospectus filed January 19, 2016, the Company entered into contracts to acquire 30 self storage facilities in ten different states for a total purchase price of approximately $398 million (including the Philadelphia store referenced above). The facilities include five single store acquisitions and four portfolio acquisitions; one comprised of 13 stores, and three comprised of four properties each. In aggregate, the newly announced transactions include 21 stabilized properties in the Company’s existing markets of Boston/SE New Hampshire (6), Central/Southern Florida (5), Connecticut (2), Dallas (3), Denver (1), New York City metro area (2) and Philadelphia (2). A contract to acquire a recently developed facility in Phoenix, AZ, another market in which the Company has a presence, was also executed. The balance of the acquisitions includes eight properties in the Los Angeles, CA metro area, a new market for the Company. Seven of these properties are stabilized while the eighth property is a newly developed store in North Los Angeles County.
As noted above, one of the Philadelphia properties was acquired in December, 2015, at a cost of approximately $6.6 million. In January and February, 2016, 19 of the aforementioned stores were acquired at a cost of approximately $222 million; four in Southern Florida, four in Los Angeles, six in Boston/SE New Hampshire, three in Dallas and one each in Phoenix and Philadelphia. The purchase price of all of these acquisitions was funded through draws on the Company’s line of credit, which draws have been subsequently repaid through proceeds of the Company’s underwritten public offering described below. The remaining 10 previously announced properties are expected to be acquired at various dates through April, 2016, at a total cost of approximately $169 million.
In addition to the transactions described above, the Company is also under contract to purchase three Certificate of Occupancy properties; two in Chicago, one in Charleston, SC and one in Miami, FL. The Miami property was acquired at a cost of approximately $11 million in February 2016. The Company expects to execute the purchase of the three remaining properties upon completion of construction at various dates later in 2016 for total consideration of approximately $27 million.
The purchase of the remaining facilities by the Company is subject to customary conditions to closing, and there is no assurance that these properties will be acquired.
CAPITAL TRANSACTIONS:
Illustrated below are key financial ratios at December 31, 2015:
- Debt to Enterprise Value (at $107.31/share) 17.4%
- Debt to Book Cost of Storage Facilities 33.4%
- Debt to EBITDA Ratio 3.8x
- Debt Service Coverage 6.1x
At December 31, 2015, the Company had approximately $7.0 million of cash on hand, and $221 million available on its line of credit, excluding its expansion feature.
During the quarter, the Company issued 450,000 shares pursuant to its “At The Market” program at an average price of $99.58 per share. The net proceeds of $44.2 million were used, in part, to acquire the aforementioned properties. In October, the Company issued 45,370 shares at a price of $96.45 through its Dividend Reinvestment Plan.
On January 4, 2016, the Company increased its line of credit facility from $300 million to $500 million. This increase was pursuant to an expansion feature set forth in the Company’s existing unsecured credit agreement. The other terms of the Company’s line of credit facility were unchanged.
On January 20, 2016, the Company agreed to issue and sell 2,300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $.01 per share, plus up to an additional 345,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the underwriters’ option, at a price to the public of $105.75 per share. The offering of 2,645,000 shares of the Company’s common stock closed on January 25, 2016, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of approximately $269.7 million, part of which was used to fund the aforementioned properties.
COMMON STOCK DIVIDEND:
Subsequent to quarter-end, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.85 per share or $3.40 annualized.
YEAR 2016 EARNINGS GUIDANCE:
Management is encouraged by its occupancy gains and its ability to attain significant rental rate growth in most markets. The following assumptions covering operations have been utilized in formulating guidance for the first quarter and full year 2016:
| | | | | | Same Store Projected Increases Over 2015 |
| | | | | | 1Q 2016 | | | | | | Full Year 2016 |
| Revenue | | | | | | 6.0 – 7.0% | | | | | | 6.0 – 7.0% |
| Operating Costs (excluding property taxes) | | | | | | 3.0 – 4.0% | | | | | | 3.0 – 4.0% |
| Property Taxes | | | | | | 6.0 – 7.0% | | | | | | 6.0 – 7.0% |
| Total Operating Expenses | | | | | | 4.0 – 5.0% | | | | | | 4.0 – 5.0% |
| Net Operating Income | | | | | | 7.0 – 8.0% | | | | | | 7.0 – 8.0% |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
The Company’s 2016 same store pool consists of the 428 stabilized stores owned since December 31, 2014. The stores purchased in 2014 at Certificate of Occupancy or that were in the early stages of lease-up are not included, regardless of their current occupancies. The Company believes that occupancy levels achieved during the lease-up period, using discounted rates, are not truly indicative of a new store’s performance, and therefore do not result in a meaningful year-over-year comparison in future years. The Company will include such stores in its same store pool in the first year after the stores achieve 80% sustained occupancy using market rates and incentives.
The Houston market is expected to comprise approximately 10.0% of the 2016 forecasted NOI of the Company’s wholly owned stores. Forecasts for the 41 same store pool of properties in the Company’s Houston market include revenue growth of 5.75% – 6.25%, operating expense increases of 4.0% – 5.0% (inclusive of a 6% projected increase in property taxes), and NOI growth of between 6.0% and 7.0%.
The Company intends to spend up to $40 million on its expansion and enhancement program. It has also budgeted $19 million to provide for recurring capitalized expenditures including roofing, paving, and office renovations.
The Company has assumed $100 million of accretive acquisitions in 2016 in addition to the aforementioned properties under contract or already acquired. Per share FFO guidance is projected after adding back third party acquisition costs. Purchases of these additional properties are expected to be funded via proceeds from the Company’s January 2016 common stock offering and draws on its line of credit which carries an interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.10%.
At the conclusion of 2015, the Company operated six self-storage facilities that it acquired during 2014 and 2015 upon issuance of Certificate of Occupancy or in the early stages of lease-up. It also acquired one in Phoenix, AZ and one in Miami, FL in February 2016, and expects to acquire another in Los Angeles, CA in March. Further, it expects to acquire three more such Certificate of Occupancy facilities at various dates later in 2016. Upon acquisition, these properties have insufficient rental revenue to cover operating costs; accordingly, for the first 24 to 36 months of operation, ownership of these facilities is dilutive to FFO per share. The Company expects that during 2016, it will incur such dilution to the extent of $0.07 to $0.08 per share due to the aforementioned acquisitions.
Annual general and administrative expenses are expected to be approximately $41-42 million. The increase over the prior year is primarily due to the need for additional personnel required for recent acquisitions and the Company’s plans to continue expanding its Corporate Alliance program.
Subsequent to our common stock offering in January, 2016, the Company had 39.4 million shares of common stock outstanding and 0.2 million Operating Partnership Units outstanding.
As a result of the above assumptions, management expects adjusted funds from operations for the full year 2016 to be approximately $5.45 to $5.51 per share, and between $1.17 and $1.19 per share for the first quarter of 2016.

| (1) Net operating income or "NOI" is a non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) financial measure that we define as total continuing revenues less continuing property operating expenses. NOI also can be calculated by adding back to net income: interest expense, impairment and casualty losses, depreciation and amortization expense, acquisition related costs, general and administrative expense, and deducting from net income: income from discontinued operations, interest income, gain on sale of real estate, and equity in income of joint ventures. We believe that NOI is a meaningful measure of operating performance, because we utilize NOI in making decisions with respect to capital allocations, in determining current property values, and comparing period-to-period and market-to-market property operating results. NOI should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP, such as total revenues, operating income and net income. |
| |
| (2) We believe that Funds from Operations (“FFO”) provides relevant and meaningful information about our operating performance that is necessary, along with net earnings and cash flows, for an understanding of our operating results. FFO adds back historical cost depreciation, which assumes the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably in the future. In fact, real estate asset values increase or decrease with market conditions. Consequently, we believe FFO is a useful supplemental measure in evaluating our operating performance by disregarding (or adding back) historical cost depreciation. |
| |
| Funds from operations is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“NAREIT”) as net income available to common shareholders computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), excluding gains or losses on sales of properties, plus impairment of real estate assets, plus depreciation and amortization and after adjustments to record unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures on the same basis. We believe that to further understand our performance, FFO should be compared with our reported net income and cash flows in accordance with GAAP, as presented in our consolidated financial statements. |
| |
| Our computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs or real estate companies that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of our performance, as an alternative to net cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our liquidity, or as an indicator of our ability to make cash distributions. |
| |
| (3) For all periods presented internet marketing costs are included in property operations and maintenance expense. The internet marketing costs had previously been included in general and administrative expenses. For the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, total internet marketing expense was $1,367 and $1,280, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, total internet marketing expense was $5,884 and $5,570, respectively. |
| |
| (4) Includes the stores owned and/or managed by the Company for the entire periods presented that are consolidated in our financial statements. Does not include unconsolidated joint ventures or other stores managed by the Company. |
| |
| (5) Does not include unconsolidated joint venture stores or other stores managed by the Company |
| |
| (6) Other administrative expenses include office rent, travel expense, investor relations and miscellaneous other expenses. |
