Broadstone Net Lease, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(in thousands, except per share amounts)

1. Business Description

Broadstone Net Lease, Inc. (the “Corporation”) is a Maryland corporation formed on October 18, 2007, that elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2008. The Corporation focuses on investing in income-producing, net leased commercial properties, primarily in the United States. The Corporation leases industrial, healthcare, restaurant, retail, and office commercial properties under long-term lease agreements. At June 30, 2021, the Corporation owned a diversified portfolio of 684 individual commercial properties with 683 properties located in 42 U.S. states and one property located in British Columbia, Canada.

Broadstone Net Lease, LLC (the Corporation’s operating company, or the “OP”), is the entity through which the Corporation conducts its business and owns (either directly or through subsidiaries) all of the Corporation’s properties. The Corporation is the sole managing member of the OP. The remaining membership units in the OP (“OP Units”), which are referred to as non-controlling interests, are held by members who were issued OP Units pursuant to the Internalization (defined below) or in exchange for their interests in properties acquired by the OP. As the Corporation conducts substantially all of its operations through the OP, it is structured as what is referred to as an umbrella partnership real estate investment trust (“UPREIT”). The Corporation, the OP, and its consolidated subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the “Company.”

Prior to February 7, 2020, the Corporation was externally managed by Broadstone Real Estate, LLC (“BRE”) and Broadstone Asset Management, LLC (the “Asset Manager”) subject to the direction, oversight, and approval of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board of Directors”). The Asset Manager was a wholly owned subsidiary of BRE and all of the Corporation’s officers were employees of BRE. Accordingly, both BRE and the Asset Manager were related parties of the Company. Refer to Note 3 for further discussion concerning related parties and related party transactions.

On February 7, 2020, the Corporation, the OP, BRE, and certain of their respective subsidiaries and affiliates, completed through a series of mergers (the “Mergers”) the internalization of the external management functions previously performed for the Corporation and the OP by BRE and the Asset Manager (such transactions, collectively, the “Internalization”). Upon consummation of the Internalization, the Company’s management team and corporate staff, who were previously employed by BRE, became employees of an indirect subsidiary of the OP and the Company became internally managed. Upon Internalization, the prior Property Management Agreement and Asset Management Agreement were terminated. The Internalization was not considered a “Termination Event” under the terms of the agreements and therefore no fees were paid under them as a result of the Internalization.

On September 18, 2020, the Corporation effected a four-for-one stock split on its then outstanding 26,944 shares of common stock (“Common Stock”) that previously had a $0.001 par value. Concurrent with the stock split, the OP effected a four-for-one stock split of its outstanding OP Units. No fractional shares or OP Units were issued as a result of the stock split. All historic share and per share amounts in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been adjusted to give retroactive effect to the stock split.

On September 21, 2020, the Corporation completed its initial public offering (“IPO”) and issued an aggregate of 37,000 shares of a new class of common stock, $0.00025 par value per share (“Class A Common Stock”) at $17.00 per share, which includes shares issued pursuant to the underwriters’ partial exercise of their over-allotment option on October 20, 2020, pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333-240381), as amended, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Shares of Class A Common Stock were listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol “BNL.” On March 20, 2021, each share of Class A Common Stock automatically converted into one share of Common Stock, and effective March 22, 2021, all shares of Common Stock were listed and freely tradeable on the NYSE under the symbol “BNL.” See Note 14.

The following table summarizes the outstanding equity and economic ownership interest of the Corporation and the OP:

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Interim Information

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information (Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 270, Interim Reporting) and Article 10 of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the Corporation has omitted certain footnote disclosures which would substantially duplicate those contained within the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020, included in the Company’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on February 25, 2021. Therefore, the readers of this quarterly report should refer to those audited consolidated financial statements, specifically Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, for further discussion of significant accounting policies and estimates. The Corporation believes all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been included in these interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (which include only normal recurring adjustments).

Principles of Consolidation

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts and operations of the Company. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

To the extent the Corporation has a variable interest in entities that are not evaluated under the variable interest entity (“VIE”) model, the Corporation evaluates its interests using the voting interest entity model. The Corporation has complete responsibility for the day-to-day management of, authority to make decisions for, and control of the OP. Based on consolidation guidance, the Corporation has concluded that the OP is a VIE as the members in the OP do not possess kick-out rights or substantive participating rights. Accordingly, the Corporation consolidates its interest in the OP. However, because the Corporation holds the majority voting interest in the OP and certain other conditions are met, it qualifies for the exemption from providing certain disclosure requirements associated with investments in VIEs.

The portion of the OP not owned by the Corporation is presented as non-controlling interests as of and during the periods presented.

Basis of Accounting

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates include, but are not limited to, the allocation of purchase price between tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the value of long-lived assets and goodwill, the provision for impairment, the depreciable lives of rental property, the amortizable lives of intangible assets and liabilities, the provisions for uncollectible rent and credit losses, the fair value of the earnout liability, the fair value of assumed debt, the fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap agreements, and the determination of any uncertain tax positions. Accordingly, actual results may differ from those estimates.

Long-lived Asset Impairment

The Company reviews long-lived assets, other than goodwill, to be held and used for possible impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If, and when, such events or changes in circumstances are present, an impairment exists to the extent the carrying value of the asset or asset group exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset or asset group and its eventual disposition. Such cash flows include expected future operating income, as adjusted for trends and prospects, as well as the effects of demand, competition, and other factors. An impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset or asset group exceeds the fair value of the asset or asset group. A significant judgment is made as to if and when impairment should be taken. The Company’s assessment of impairment as of June 30, 2021 was based on the most current information available to the Company. Certain of the Company’s properties may have fair values less than their carrying amounts. However, based on the Company’s plans with respect to each of those properties, the Company believes that their carrying amounts are recoverable and therefore, under applicable GAAP guidance, no impairment charges were recognized other than those described below. If the operating conditions mentioned above deteriorate or if the Company’s expected holding period for assets changes, subsequent tests for impairments could result in additional impairment charges in the future.

Inputs used in establishing fair value for real estate assets generally fall within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, which are characterized as requiring significant judgment as little or no current market activity may be available for validation. The main indicator used to establish the classification of the inputs is current market conditions, as derived through the use of published commercial real estate market information. The Company determines the valuation of impaired assets using generally accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis, income capitalization, analysis of recent comparable sales transactions, actual sales negotiations, and bona fide purchase offers received from third parties. Management may consider a single valuation technique or multiple valuation techniques, as appropriate, when estimating the fair value of its real estate.

The following table summarizes the Company's impairment charges, resulting primarily from changes in the Company's long-term hold strategy with respect to the individual properties.

Fair Value Measurements

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

Earnout Liability – In connection with the Internalization, the Company recognized an earnout liability that will be due and payable to the former owners of BRE if certain milestones are achieved during specified periods of time following the closing of the Internalization (the “Earnout Periods”). Under the terms of the agreement, the milestones related to either (a) the 40-day dollar volume-weighted

8


 

average price of a share of the Company’s common stock (“VWAP per REIT Share”), following the completion of an IPO of the Company’s common stock, or (b) the Company’s AFFO per share, prior to the completion of an IPO.

The Company utilizes third-party valuation experts to assist in estimating the fair value of the earnout liability, and develops estimates by considering weighted-average probabilities of likely outcomes, and using a Monte Carlo simulation and discounted cash flow analysis. These estimates require the Company to make various assumptions about share price volatility and, prior to the IPO, about the timing of an IPO and net asset prices, each of which are unobservable and considered Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. A change in these inputs to a different amount might result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement at the reporting date. Specifically, advancements in the estimated IPO date assumption increased the earnout liability’s fair value given the earnout’s fixed time horizon. Peer share price volatilities are used to estimate the Company’s expected share price volatility, and the Company’s corresponding ability to achieve the earnout targets. Increases in the volatility assumption would increase the earnout liability’s fair value. Increases in net asset values would also increase the earnout liability’s fair value.

Long-term Debt – The fair value of the Company’s debt was estimated using Level 2 and Level 3 inputs based on recent financing transactions, estimates of the fair value of the property that serves as collateral for such debt, historical risk premiums for loans of comparable quality, current London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), U.S. Treasury obligation interest rates, and on the discounted estimated future cash payments to be made on such debt. The discount rates estimated reflect the Company’s judgment as to the approximate current lending rates for loans or groups of loans with similar maturities and assumes that the debt is outstanding through maturity. Market information, as available, or present value techniques were utilized to estimate the amounts required to be disclosed. Since such amounts are estimates that are based on limited available market information for similar transactions and do not acknowledge transfer or other repayment restrictions that may exist on specific loans, it is unlikely that the estimated fair value of any such debt could be realized by immediate settlement of the obligation.

The following table summarizes the carrying amount reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and the Company’s estimate of the fair value of the Mortgages, net, Unsecured term notes, net, and Unsecured revolving credit facility, which reflects the fair value of interest rate swaps:

Non-recurring Fair Value Measurements

The Company’s non-recurring fair value measurements at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 consisted of the fair value of impaired real estate assets that were determined using Level 3 inputs.

Right-of-Use Assets and Lease Liabilities

The Company is a lessee under non-cancelable operating leases associated with its corporate headquarters and other office spaces as well as with leases of land (“ground leases”). The Company records right-of-use assets and lease liabilities associated with these leases. The lease liability is equal to the net present value of the future payments to be made under the lease, discounted using estimates based on observable market factors. The right-of-use asset is generally equal to the lease liability plus initial direct costs associated with the leases. The Company includes in the recognition of the right-of-use asset and lease liability those renewal periods that are reasonably certain to be exercised, based on the facts and circumstances that exist at lease inception. Amounts associated with percentage rent provisions are considered variable lease costs and are not included in the initial measurement of the right-of-use asset or lease liability. The Company has made an accounting policy election, applicable to all asset types, not to separate lease from nonlease components when allocating contract consideration related to operating leases.

Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities associated with operating leases were included in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as follows:

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has issued restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) and performance-based restricted stock units (“PRSUs”) under its 2020 Omnibus Equity and Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan”). The Company accounts for stock-based incentives in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, which requires that such compensation be recognized in the financial statements based on the award’s estimated grant date fair value. The value of such awards is recognized as compensation expense in General and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income (Loss) over the appropriate

10


 

vesting period on a straight-line basis or at the cumulative amount vested at each balance sheet date, if greater. The Company records forfeitures during the period in which they occur by reversing all previously recorded stock compensation expense associated with the forfeited shares. Dividends declared on RSAs issued under the Equity Incentive Plan are recorded as Cumulative distributions in excess of retained earnings on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Accumulated dividends related to forfeited RSAs will be reversed through compensation expense in the period the forfeiture occurs. Dividends accrued on the PRSUs are recorded as Cumulative distributions in excess of retained earnings on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Accumulated dividends accrued related to forfeited PRSUs are reversed in the period the forfeiture occurs.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In January 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope, which refines the scope of ASC 848, to include all derivative contracts subject to a transition for discounting cash flows, for computing variation margin settlements, and for calculating price alignment interest (PAI) as a result of reference rate reform (the “discounting transition”). ASU 2021-01 gives market participants the ability to apply certain aspects of the contract modification and hedge accounting expedients to derivative contracts affected by a discounting transition. ASU 2021-01 permits an entity to elect certain hedging relief if it has designated a derivative as a hedging instrument in a hedging relationship and the terms of the derivative have changed as a result of the discounting transition. The Company will apply the amendments in ASU 2021-01 related to contract modifications and hedging relationships prospectively.

Other Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. The guidance in ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for convertible debt and convertible preferred stock by removing the requirements to separately present certain conversion features in equity. In addition, the amendments in ASU 2020-06 also simplify the guidance in ASC Subtopic 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging: Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity, by removing certain criteria that must be satisfied in order to classify a contract as equity, which is expected to decrease the number of freestanding instruments and embedded derivatives accounted for as assets or liabilities. Finally, the amendments revise the guidance on calculating earnings per share, requiring use of the if-converted method for all convertible instruments and rescinding an entity’s ability to rebut the presumption of share settlement for instruments that may be settled in cash or other assets. The amendments in ASU 2020-06 are effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The guidance must be adopted as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance. 

3. Related-Party Transactions

Prior to the Internalization on February 7, 2020, BRE, a related party in which certain directors of the Corporation had either a direct or indirect ownership interest, and the Asset Manager were considered to be related parties.

Earnout Consideration

In connection with the Internalization, the Company incurred a contingent obligation that would be payable to certain members of the Company’s Board of Directors and employees who had previously been owners and/or employees of BRE, upon the occurrence of certain events (see Note 4). During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company achieved the earnout milestone applicable to tranche 1 of the earnout (see Note 4). As a result, the Company issued 145 shares of common stock, 248 OP Units and paid $1,926 of cash on June 22, 2021.

Conversion of OP Units to Common Stock

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, in a non-cash transaction (see Note 17), the Company converted 1,020 OP Units held by an affiliated third party to 1,020 shares of common stock at a total conversion value of $16,175.

4. Internalization

On February 7, 2020, the Company completed the Internalization and the Company’s management team and corporate staff, who were previously employed by BRE, became employees of an indirect subsidiary of the OP. The effect of the Internalization has been reflected in the Company’s operating results beginning on February 7, 2020.

In accordance with the Internalization, the Company is required to pay additional earnout consideration of up to $75,000 payable in four tranches of $10,000, $15,000, $25,000, and $25,000 if certain milestones related to the 40-day VWAP per REIT Share are achieved.

11


 

The consideration will consist of a combination of cash, shares of the Company’s common stock, and OP Units, based on the same proportions paid in the base consideration.

On June 16, 2021, the Company achieved a 40-day VWAP of $22.50, thereby triggering the payout of tranche 1 of the earnout representing 145 shares of common stock, 248 OP units, and $1,926 of cash, including amounts accrued for dividends.

Condensed Pro Forma Financial Information (Unaudited)

The following pro forma information summarizes selected financial information from the Company’s combined results of operations, as if the Internalization had occurred on January 1, 2019. These results contain certain adjustments totaling $389 and $6,137 of income, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. These pro forma adjustments reflect the elimination of Internalization expenses and asset management, property management, and disposition fees between the Company and BRE and the Asset Manager in historic financial results, and adjustments to reflect compensation and related costs, incremental general and administrative expenses related to the Internalization, and incremental interest expense associated with the borrowing related to the Internalization. This pro forma information is presented for informational purposes only, and may not be indicative of what actual results of operations would have been had the Internalization occurred at the beginning of the period, nor does it purport to represent the results of future operations.

7. Investment in Rental Property and Lease Arrangements

The Company generally leases its investment rental property to established tenants in the industrial, healthcare, restaurant, retail, and office, and other industries. At June 30, 2021, the Company had 667 real estate properties which were leased under leases that have been classified as operating leases, 10 that have been classified as direct financing leases, and one that has been classified as a sales-type lease. Of the 10 leases classified as direct financing leases, three include land portions which are accounted for as operating leases. The sales-type lease includes a land portion which is accounted for as an operating lease. Substantially all leases have initial terms of 10 to 20 years. The Company’s leases generally provide for limited increases in rent as a result of fixed increases, increases in the CPI, or increases in the tenant’s sales volume. Generally, tenants are also required to pay all property taxes and assessments, substantially maintain the interior and exterior of the building, and maintain property and liability insurance coverage. The leases also typically provide for one or more multiple year renewal options, at the election of the tenant, and are subject to generally the same terms and conditions as the initial lease.

Since lease renewal periods are exercisable at the option of the tenant, the above amounts only include future lease payments due during the initial lease terms. Such amounts exclude any potential variable rent increases that are based on changes in the CPI or future variable rents which may be received under the leases based on a percentage of the tenant’s gross sales. Additionally, certain of our leases provide tenants with the option to terminate their leases in exchange for termination penalties, or that are contingent upon the occurrence of a future event. Future lease payments within the table above have not been adjusted for these termination rights. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company executed a lease amendment that provides a tenant the option, but not the obligation, to early terminate its lease in exchange for a termination payment representing approximately 113% of the remaining minimum lease payments.

(b) Amounts presented include debt issuance costs, net, related to the unsecured term notes and senior notes only.

(c) At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, one-month LIBOR was 0.10% and 0.14%, respectively. At June 30, 2021 daily LIBOR was 0.09%.

(d) In January 2021, the Company received a credit rating of BBB, changing the applicable margin on variable rate unsecured debt effective February 1, 2021.

(e) At June 30, 2021, borrowings on the revolving credit facility were subject to interest at one-month LIBOR plus 1.00% or daily LIBOR rates plus 1.00%.

(f) At December 31, 2020, interest rate was one-month LIBOR plus 1.20%.

(g) At December 31, 2020, interest rate was one-month LIBOR plus 1.25%.

(h) At December 31, 2020, interest rate was one-month LIBOR plus 1.35%.

(i) At December 31, 2020, interest rate was one-month LIBOR plus 1.85%.

At June 30, 2021, the weighted average interest rate on all outstanding borrowings was 2.46%, exclusive of interest rate swap agreements.

On March 12, 2021, the Company amended the 2026 Unsecured Term Loan and made a $50,000 paydown on the loan. Prior to the amendment, the borrowings under the 2026 Unsecured Term Loan were subject to interest at variable rates based on LIBOR plus a margin based on the OP’s current credit rating ranging between 1.45% and 2.40% per annum with the applicable margin being 1.60% immediately prior to the amendment. The amendment reduced the margin to a range between 0.85% and 1.65% per annum and based on the OP’s credit rating of BBB, the applicable margin was 1.0% beginning March 12, 2021. All other terms and conditions of the 2026 Unsecured Term Loan remained materially the same as those in effect prior to this amendment.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company paid $951 in debt issuance costs associated with the amended 2026 Unsecured Term Loan. The Company did not incur debt issuance costs during the three months ended June 30, 2021. For each separate debt instrument, on a lender by lender basis, in accordance with ASC 470-50, Debt Modifications and Extinguishment, the Company performed an assessment of whether the transaction was deemed to be new debt, a modification of existing debt, or an extinguishment of existing debt. Debt issuance costs are either deferred and amortized over the term of the associated debt or expensed as incurred. Based on the assessment, $946 of debt issuance costs incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2021 were deemed to be related to the modification of existing debt, and therefore have been deferred and are being amortized over the term of the associated debt.

Additionally, $126 of unamortized debt issuance costs were expensed during the six months ended June 30, 2021, and included in Cost of debt extinguishment in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

Debt issuance costs are amortized as a component of interest expense in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income (Loss). The following table summarizes debt issuance cost amortization:

The Company is subject to various financial and operational covenants and financial reporting requirements pursuant to its unsecured credit agreements. These covenants require the Company to maintain certain financial ratios, including leverage, fixed charge coverage, and debt service coverage, among others. As of June 30, 2021, the Company believes it was in compliance with all of its loan covenants. Failure to comply with the covenants would result in a default which, if the Company were unable to cure or obtain a waiver from the lenders, could accelerate the repayment of the obligations. Further, in the event of default, the Company may be restricted from paying dividends to its stockholders in excess of dividends required to maintain its REIT qualification. Accordingly, an event of default could have a material and adverse impact on the Company.

11. Interest Rate Swaps

Interest rate swaps were entered into with certain financial institutions in order to mitigate the impact of interest rate variability over the term of the related debt agreements. The interest rate swaps are considered cash flow hedges. In order to reduce counterparty concentration risk, the Company has a diversification policy for institutions that serve as swap counterparties. Under these agreements, the Company receives monthly payments from the counterparties on these interest rate swaps equal to the related variable interest rates multiplied by the outstanding notional amounts. Certain interest rate swaps amortize on a monthly basis. In turn, the Company pays the counterparties each month an amount equal to a fixed rate multiplied by the related outstanding notional amounts. The intended net impact of these transactions is that the Company pays a fixed interest rate on its variable-rate borrowings.

The following is a summary of the Company’s outstanding interest rate swap agreements:

Amounts related to the interest rate swaps expected to be reclassified out of Accumulated other comprehensive loss to Interest expense during the next twelve months are estimated to be a loss of $15,821. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance by the counterparties of the swaps. The Company minimizes the risk exposure by limiting counterparties to major banks who meet established credit and capital guidelines.

On June 16, 2021, the Company achieved the VWAP milestone applicable to tranche 1 of the earnout (see Note 4). As a result, the OP issued 248 non-controlling OP Units on June 22, 2021.

13. Credit Risk Concentrations

The Company maintained bank balances that, at times, exceeded the federally insured limit during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The Company has not experienced losses relating to these deposits and management does not believe that the Company is exposed to any significant credit risk with respect to these amounts.

The Company has mortgages with three institutions that comprised 63%, 16%, and 10% of total mortgages at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company had no individual tenants or common franchises that accounted for more than 10% of total revenues.

14. Equity

General

On June 28, 2021, the Corporation completed its first public follow-on equity offering and issued 11,500 shares of Common Stock, including shares issued pursuant to the underwriters' full exercise of their over-allotment option, at $23.00 per share. The net proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $10,580 and $433 of other expenses, were $253,487. The Company used the net proceeds to repay the remaining $160,600 principal due under the Company's revolving credit facility. The remaining net proceeds will be used for general business purposes, including acquisitions. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $404 of accrued offering costs related to the public follow-on equity offering.

On September 21, 2020, the Corporation completed its IPO and issued 37,000 shares of Class A Common Stock inclusive of the underwriters’ partial exercise of their over-allotment option on October 20, 2020.

Aside from the conversion discussed below, the terms of the Class A Common Stock were identical to the terms of the Common Stock. Each share of Class A Common Stock automatically converted into one share of Common Stock on March 20, 2021, and effective

20


 

March 22, 2021, all shares of Common Stock were listed and freely tradeable on the NYSE under the ticker “BNL.” The Common Stock and Class A Common Stock are collectively referred to as the Corporation’s “common stock.”

On June 16, 2021, the Company achieved the VWAP milestone applicable to tranche 1 of the earnout (see Note 4). As a result, the Company issued 145 shares of common stock on June 22, 2021.

15. Stock-Based Compensation

Restricted Stock Awards

On March 1, 2021, the Company awarded 199 shares of RSAs to certain officers and employees under the Equity Incentive Plan. The holder of RSAs is generally entitled at all times on and after the date of issuance of the restricted common shares to exercise the rights of a stockholder of the Company, including the right to vote the shares and the right to receive dividends on the shares. The RSAs vest over a one, three or four year period from the date of grant and are subject to the employee’s continued service through the applicable vesting dates and in accordance with the terms of the individual award agreements. The grant date fair value per share of $18.66 was based on the market price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date.

Performance-based Restricted Stock Units

On March 1, 2021, the Company issued target grants of 132 PRSUs under the Equity Incentive Plan to the officers of the Company. The awards are non-vested restricted stock units where the vesting percentages and the ultimate number of units vesting will be measured 50% based on the relative total shareholder return (“rTSR”) of the Company’s common stock as compared to the rTSR of peer companies over a three-year period, as identified in the grant agreements, and 50% based on the rTSR of the Company’s common stock as compared to the rTSR of the MSCI US REIT Index over a three year measurement period. The payout schedules can produce vesting percentages ranging from 0% to 200% with a target of 100%. rTSR means the percentage appreciation in the fair market value of one share over the three-year measurement period beginning on the date of grant, assuming the reinvestment of dividends on the ex-dividend date. The target number of units is based on achieving a rTSR equal to the 55th percentile of the peer companies and MSCI US REIT Index. Dividends accrue during the measurement period and will be paid on the PRSUs ultimately earned at the end of the measurement period in either cash or common stock, at the direction of the Board’s Compensation Committee. The grant date fair value of the PRSUs was measured using a Monte Carlo simulation model based on assumptions including share price volatility.

(a) Represents the weighted average effects of 378 unvested restricted shares of common stock as of June 30, 2021, which will be excluded from the computation of

earnings per share until they vest. The shares of restricted common stock were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share, as the effect of doing

so would have been anti-dilutive.

(b) Represents the weighted average effects of shares of common stock to be issued as though the end of the period were the end of the performance period (see Note

15).

(c) Represents the weighted average effects of 10,482 and 12,226 OP Units outstanding at June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. OP Units are included in the diluted

earnings per share calculation. However, because such OP Units would also require that the share of the net income attributable to such OP units also be added

back to net income, there is no effect to EPS.  

17. Supplemental Cash Flow Disclosures

Cash paid for interest was $29,961 and $38,400 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Cash paid for income taxes was $734 and $945 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

The following are non-cash transactions and have been excluded from the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows:

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Corporation issued 275 shares of Common Stock with a value of approximately $5,733 under the terms of the Distribution Reinvestment Plan (“DRIP”). The Company terminated the DRIP effective February 10, 2020.
During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company issued shares of Common Stock and OP Units, with a total value of approximately $178,535, and earnout consideration with a fair value of $40,119 as consideration for the Internalization and assumed $90,484 of debt.
During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company adjusted the carrying value of mezzanine equity non-controlling interests by $2,513, with an offset to Additional paid-in capital, in accordance with the Company’s accounting policy.
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company converted 1,165 OP Units valued at $18,466 to 1,165 shares of common stock.
At June 30, 2021, dividend amounts declared and accrued but not yet paid amounted to $43,184.

23


 

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company executed lease modifications that resulted in the lease classification changing from direct financing lease to operating lease for four properties. At the modification date, the net investment in the original lease, and therefore the carrying value of the assets recognized, amounted to $9,055.

18. Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

From time to time, the Company is a party to various litigation matters incidental to the conduct of the Company’s business. While the resolution of such matters cannot be predicted with certainty, based on currently available information, the Company does not believe that the final outcome of any of these matters will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

Property and Acquisition Related

In connection with ownership and operation of real estate, the Company may potentially be liable for costs and damages related to environmental matters. The Company is not aware of any non-compliance, liability, claim, or other environmental condition that would have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

Balances associated with tenant improvement allowances are included in Accounts payable and other liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as follows:

The Company is a party to three separate tax protection agreements with the contributing members of three distinct UPREIT transactions and to the Founding Owners’ Tax Protection Agreement in connection with the Internalization. The tax protection agreements require the Company to indemnify the beneficiaries in the event of a sale, exchange, transfer, or other disposal of the contributed property, and in the case of the Founding Owners’ Tax Protection Agreement, the entire Company, in a taxable transaction that would cause such beneficiaries to recognize a gain that is protected under the agreements, subject to certain exceptions. The Company is required to allocate an amount of nonrecourse liabilities to each beneficiary that is at least equal to the minimum liability amount, as contained in the agreements. The minimum liability amount and the associated allocation of nonrecourse liabilities are calculated in accordance with applicable tax regulations, are completed at the OP level, and do not represent GAAP accounting. Therefore, there is no impact to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Based on values as of June 30, 2021, taxable sales of the applicable properties would trigger liability under the agreements of approximately $22,300. Based on information available, the Company does not believe that the events resulting in damages as detailed above have occurred or are likely to occur in the foreseeable future.

Obligations Under Operating Leases

Subsequent to the Internalization, the Company leases office space for its corporate headquarters and other locations under non-cancellable operating leases with expiration dates ranging from 2021 to 2023. These leases contain provisions for fixed monthly payments, subject to rent escalations. None of the leases are subject to any sublease agreement.

The Company also leases land at certain properties under non-cancellable operating leases (“ground leases”) with initial lease terms ranging from 2034 to 2066. These leases contain provisions for fixed monthly payments, subject to rent escalations. One lease requires the Company to make annual rent payments calculated based upon sales generated at the property (“percentage rent”). None of the leases are subject to any sublease agreement.

19. Subsequent Events

On July 15, 2021, the Company paid distributions totaling $43,111.

On July 29, 2021, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly distribution of $0.255 per share on the Company’s common stock and OP Units for the third quarter of 2021, which will be payable on or before October 15, 2021 to stockholders and unit holders of record as of September 30, 2021.

Subsequent to June 30, 2021, the Company continued to expand its operations through the acquisition of additional rental property and associated intangible assets and liabilities. The Company acquired approximately $38,700 of rental property and associated intangible assets and liabilities.

Subsequent to June 30, 2021, the Company paid one mortgage with a principal balance of $4,683 in full. Additionally, the Company refinanced one mortgage with a principal balance of $10,209 for a new principal balance of $7,500. Interest on the mortgage is at a daily floating annual rate equal to the Prime Rate plus 1.25%, but no less than 5.0% per annum, through the maturity date of July 2024. The interest rate at origination is 5.0%.

On July 14, 2021, the Company achieved a 40-day VWAP of $23.75, thereby triggering the payout of tranche 2 of the earnout representing 217 shares of common stock, 372 OP units, and $2,889 of cash, including amounts accrued for dividends.

We acquire, own, and manage primarily single-tenant commercial real estate properties that are net leased on a long-term basis to a diversified group of tenants. Since our inception in 2007, we have selectively invested in net leased assets in the industrial, healthcare, restaurant, retail, and office property types. As of June 30, 2021, our portfolio has grown to 684 properties, with 683 properties located in 42 U.S. states and one property located in British Columbia, Canada.

We focus on investing in real estate that is operated by creditworthy single tenants in industries characterized by positive business drivers and trends. We target properties that are an integral part of the tenants’ businesses and for which there are therefore opportunities to secure long-term net leases. Through long-term net leases, our tenants are able to retain operational control of their strategically important locations, while allocating their debt and equity capital to fund their core business operations rather than real estate ownership.

-
Diversified Portfolio. As of June 30, 2021, our portfolio comprised approximately 30.2 million rentable square feet of operational space, and was highly diversified based on property type, geography, tenant, and industry, and is cross-diversified within each (e.g., property-type diversification within a geographic concentration):
Property Type: We are focused primarily on industrial, healthcare, restaurant, retail, and office property types based on our extensive experience in and conviction around these sectors. Within these sectors, we have meaningful concentrations in distribution and warehouse, manufacturing, clinical, quick service restaurant, casual dining, food processing, flex/research and development, general merchandise, strategic operations, and automotive.
Geographic Diversity: Our properties are located in 42 U.S. states and British Columbia, Canada, with no single geographic concentration exceeding 10.2% of our ABR.
Tenant and Industry Diversity: Our properties are occupied by approximately 192 different commercial tenants who operate 179 different brands that are diversified across 55 differing industries, with no single tenant accounting for more than 2.3% of our ABR.
-
Strong In-Place Leases with Significant Remaining Lease Term. As of June 30, 2021, our portfolio was approximately 99.7% leased based on rentable square footage with an ABR weighted average remaining lease term of approximately 10.4 years, excluding renewal options.
-
Standard Contractual Base Rent Escalation. Approximately 97.9% of our leases have contractual rent escalations, with an ABR weighted average minimum increase of 2.0%.
-
Extensive Tenant Financial Reporting. Approximately 85.5% of our ABR is received from tenants that are required to provide us with specified financial information on a periodic basis. An additional 9.0% of our ABR is received from tenants who are not required to provide us with specified financial information under the terms of our lease, but whose financial statements are available publicly, either through SEC filings or otherwise.

Lease Expirations

As of June 30, 2021, the ABR weighted average remaining term of our leases was approximately 10.4 years. Less than 5% of the properties in our portfolio are subject to leases without at least one renewal option. Approximately 45.8% of our rental revenue was derived from leases that will expire after 2030, and no more than 8.7% of our rental revenue was derived from leases that expire in any single year prior to 2030. The following chart sets forth our lease expirations based upon the terms of the leases in place as of June 30, 2021. img143305453_2.jpg

The increase in Lease revenues, net was primarily attributable to growth in our real estate portfolio through accretive property acquisitions during the first quarter of 2021. During the first quarter of 2021, we invested $87.3 million, excluding capitalized acquisition costs, in 28 properties at a weighted average initial cash cap rate of 6.4%. Most of these acquisitions closed during the month of March 2021, and therefore did not materially contribute to Lease revenues, net for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

General and administrative

The decrease in general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily due to the payment of severance associated with the departure of an executive officer during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Provision for impairment of investment in rental properties

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we recognized $2.0 million of impairment on our investments in rental properties. No properties were impaired during the three months ended June 30, 2021. The following table presents the impairment charges for the three months ended March 31, 2021:

Change in fair value of earnout liability

As part of the Internalization, we may be required to pay additional earnout consideration if certain milestones are achieved during the Earnout Periods. We record the fair value of this contingent consideration in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and update the fair value at the end of each reporting period. To the extent the change in fair value relates to a portion of the earnout consideration that is classified as a liability, we record the change through earnings. We estimate the fair value of the earnout liability by considering weighted-average probabilities of likely outcomes, and using a Monte Carlo simulation and discounted cash flow analysis to estimate fair value. These estimates require us to make various assumptions about future share prices, and other items that are unobservable and are considered Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. The change in the fair value of the earnout liability during the three months ended June 30, 2021, reflects an increase in our share price as compared to March 31, 2021.

The decrease in net income is primarily due to a $6.7 million change in the fair value of our earnout liability, partially offset by a $2.1 million increase in revenues, a $2.0 million decrease in general and administrative expenses and $2.0 million decrease in impairment of investment in rental properties.

GAAP net income includes items such as gain or loss on sale of real estate and provisions for impairment, among others, which can vary from quarter to quarter and impact period-over-period comparisons.

The increase in Lease revenues, net, was primarily attributable to growth in our real estate portfolio through accretive property acquisitions during the fourth quarter of 2020 and first quarter of 2021. During this period, we invested $187.6 million, excluding capitalized acquisition costs, in 47 properties at a weighted average initial cash cap rate of 6.6%. We did not acquire any properties during the first half of 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Depreciation and amortization

The decrease in depreciation and amortization was due to the accelerated amortization resulting from early lease termination during the six months ended June 30, 2020 (as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic), compared to none during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Asset management fees and Property management fees

The decrease in asset management fees and property management fees was due to the completion of the Internalization in February 2020, which terminated the associated agreements with our third-party manager.

General and administrative

The increase in general and administrative expenses mainly reflects the impact of the Internalization associated with our newly acquired employee base. Following the Internalization, our asset and property management fees were replaced with compensation and related expenses, along with associated general and administrative expenses in February 2020.

Interest expense

The decrease in interest expense primarily reflects a decrease in our average outstanding borrowings, combined with a decrease in our weighted average cost of borrowings. In September 2020, we used the proceeds of our IPO to repay $456.7 million of outstanding borrowings, including accrued interest, significantly reducing our leverage profile. In January 2021, we received an initial credit rating of BBB with a stable outlook from S&P, which had the effect of lowering the applicable margin on our then existing $965 million of bank loans by 25 basis points beginning in February 2021. We also repriced and partially repaid our 2026 Unsecured Term Loan in March 2021, reducing the applicable margin and principal balance by an additional 60 basis points and $50 million, respectively.

Internalization expenses

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we incurred $1.6 million of third-party fees and consulting expenses associated with the Internalization. We did not incur these expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Change in fair value of earnout liability

The change in the fair value of the earnout liability during the six months ended June 30, 2021, reflects a increase in our period end share price.

The increase in net income, is primarily due to revenue growth of $8.9 million, a $9.2 million decrease in depreciation and amortization expenses, a $9.0 million decrease in interest expense, a $3.8 million decrease in asset and property management fees, and a $1.6 million decrease in Internalization expenses. These factors were partially offset by a $7.7 million increase in general and administrative expenses and $6.6 million change in the fair value of our earnout liability.

GAAP net income includes items such as gain or loss on sale of real estate and provisions for impairment, among others, which can vary from quarter to quarter and impact period-over-period comparisons.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

We acquire real estate using a combination of debt and equity capital and with cash from operations that is not otherwise distributed to our stockholders. Our focus is on maximizing the risk-adjusted return to our stockholders through an appropriate balance of debt and equity in our capital structure. We are committed to maintaining an investment grade balance sheet through active management of our leverage profile and overall liquidity position. We believe our leverage strategy has allowed us to take advantage of the lower cost of

37


 

debt while simultaneously strengthening our balance sheet, as evidenced by our investment grade credit ratings of BBB from S&P and Baa3 from Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”). We manage our leverage profile using a ratio of Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre, a non-GAAP financial measure, which we believe is a useful measure of our ability to repay debt and a relative measure of leverage, and is used in communications with lenders and with rating agencies regarding our credit rating. We seek to maintain on a sustained basis a Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre ratio that is generally less than 6.0x. As of June 30, 2021, we had total debt outstanding of $1.5 billion, Net Debt of $1.4 billion, and a Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre ratio of approximately 4.76x.

Net Debt and Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre are non-GAAP financial measures, and Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre is calculated based upon EBITDA, EBITDAre, and Adjusted EBITDAre, each of which is also a non-GAAP financial measure. Refer to Non-GAAP Measures below for further details concerning our calculation of non-GAAP measures and reconciliations to the comparable GAAP measure.

Liquidity/REIT Requirements

Liquidity is a measure of our ability to meet potential cash requirements, including our ongoing commitments to repay debt, fund our operations, acquire properties, make distributions to our stockholders, and other general business needs. As a REIT, we are required to distribute to our stockholders at least 90% of our REIT taxable income determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding net capital gain, on an annual basis. As a result, it is unlikely that we will be able to retain substantial cash balances to meet our long-term liquidity needs, including repayment of debt and the acquisition of additional properties, from our annual taxable income. Instead, we expect to meet our long-term liquidity needs primarily by relying upon external sources of capital.

Short-term Liquidity Requirements

Our short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for our operating expenses, including our general and administrative expenses as well as interest payments on our outstanding debt, and to pay distributions. We do not currently anticipate making significant capital expenditures or incurring other significant property costs because of the strong occupancy levels across our portfolio and the nature of our leases. We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements primarily from cash and cash equivalents balances and net cash provided by operating activities, supplemented by borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility.

As detailed in the contractual obligations table below, we have approximately $45.7 million of expected obligations due to be paid throughout the remainder of 2021, primarily consisting of $16.3 million of mortgage maturities, and $28.7 million of interest expense due, including the impact of our interest rate swaps. We expect our cash provided by operating activities, as discussed below, will be sufficient to pay for our current obligations including interest expense on our borrowings. We expect to either repay the maturing mortgages with available cash on hand generated from our results of operations or borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility, or refinance with property-level borrowings.

Long-term Liquidity Requirements

Our long-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds necessary to repay debt and invest in additional revenue generating properties. Debt capital is provided through unsecured term notes, revolving credit facilities, and senior unsecured notes. Further, we anticipate having the ability to access the public unsecured bond market, which was historically unavailable to us prior to our IPO.

The source and mix of our debt capital in the future will be impacted by market conditions as well as our continued focus on lengthening our debt maturity profile to better align with our portfolio’s lease terms, staggering debt maturities to reduce the risk that a significant amount of debt will mature in any single year in the future, and managing our exposure to interest rate risk. Our $60 million 2022 Unsecured Term Loan has a short-term maturity date of February 2022. We expect to either repay the 2022 Unsecured Term Loan with available cash on hand, or with borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility. We currently have full capacity available under our $900 million Revolving Credit Facility.

We expect to meet our long-term liquidity requirements primarily from borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility, future debt and equity financings, and proceeds from limited sales of our properties. Our ability to access these capital sources may be impacted by unfavorable market conditions, particularly in the debt and equity capital markets, that are outside of our control. In addition, our success will depend on our operating performance, our borrowing restrictions, our degree of leverage, and other factors. Our acquisition growth strategy significantly depends on our ability to obtain acquisition financing on favorable terms. We seek to reduce the risk that long-term debt capital may be unavailable to us by strengthening our balance sheet by investing in real estate with creditworthy tenants and lease guarantors, and by maintaining an appropriate mix of debt and equity capitalization. We also, from time to time, obtain or assume non-recourse mortgage financing from banks and insurance companies secured by mortgages on the corresponding specific property. Mortgages, however, are not currently a strategic focus of the active management of our capital structure.

38


 

Equity Capital Resources

On September 21, 2020, we completed our IPO and issued 37 million shares of stock for net proceeds of $588.3 million, including shares issued subsequently pursuant to the underwriters’ partial exercise of their over-allotment option. We used $216.5 million of the net proceeds to fully repay the outstanding borrowings and accrued interest under our then existing revolving credit agreement and $240.2 million of the proceeds to fully repay the outstanding principal and accrued interest associated with an unsecured term loan.

On June 28, 2021, we completed our first public follow-on equity offering and issued 11.5 million shares of stock for net proceeds of $253.5 million, including shares issued pursuant to the underwriters' full exercise of their over-allotment option. We used the net proceeds to repay the remaining $160.6 million principal due under the revolving credit facility. The remaining net proceeds will be used for general business purposes, including acquisitions.

As we continue to invest in accretive real estate properties, we expect to balance our debt and equity capitalization, while maintaining a Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre ratio below 6.0x on a sustained basis, through the anticipated use of follow-on equity offerings and an at-the-market (“ATM”) program.

As announced on January 21, 2021, S&P assigned the Company an initial credit rating of 'BBB' with a stable outlook. As a result of this credit rating, the margin of our existing bank loans was reduced by 25 basis points beginning in February 2021, the applicable margin on borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility was reduced by 20 basis points, and our access to a diverse set of advantageous funding sources should expand. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, Moody’s reaffirmed our ‘Baa3’ credit rating and updated their outlook from "stable" to "positive."

On March 12, 2021, we amended our $450 million 2026 Unsecured Term Loan, reducing the applicable margin an additional 60 basis points based on our current credit rating. In connection with the amendment, we repaid in full the outstanding commitments for two lenders and elected to repay an additional $10 million in outstanding principal, bringing the outstanding balance to $400 million as of March 31, 2021.

We have full capacity available under our $900 million Revolving Credit Facility as of June 30, 2021.

Debt Covenants

We are subject to various covenants and financial reporting requirements pursuant to our debt facilities, which are summarized below. As of June 30, 2021, we believe we were in compliance with all of our covenants on all outstanding borrowings. In the event of default, either through default on payments or breach of covenants, we may be restricted from paying dividends to our stockholders in excess of dividends required to maintain our REIT qualification. For each of the previous three years, we paid dividends out of our cash flows from operations in excess of the distribution amounts required to maintain our REIT qualification.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

We are exposed to interest rate risk arising from changes in interest rates on the floating-rate borrowings under our unsecured credit facilities and a certain mortgage. Borrowings pursuant to our unsecured credit facilities and the mortgage bear interest at floating rates based on LIBOR plus an applicable margin. Accordingly, fluctuations in market interest rates may increase or decrease our interest expense, which will in turn, increase or decrease our net income and cash flow.

We attempt to manage our interest rate risk by entering into interest rate swaps. As of June 30, 2021, we had 32 interest rate swaps outstanding in an aggregate notional amount of $824.7 million. Under these agreements, we receive monthly payments from the counterparties equal to the related variable interest rates multiplied by the outstanding notional amounts. In turn, we pay the counterparties each month an amount equal to a fixed interest rate multiplied by the related outstanding notional amounts. The intended net impact of these transactions is that we pay a fixed interest rate on our variable-rate borrowings. The interest rate swaps have been designated by us as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes and are reported at fair value. We assess, both at inception and on an ongoing basis, the effectiveness of our qualifying cash flow hedges. We have not entered, and do not intend to enter, into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes.

Cash Flows

Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash totaled $87.0 million and $9.8 million at June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, respectively. The table below shows information concerning cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020:

The increase in net cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020, was mainly due to growth in our real estate portfolio and cost savings associated with the Internalization.

The increase in cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020, was mainly due to increased acquisition volume in 2021 offset by decrease in cash paid in connection with the Internalization.

The change in net cash provided by (used in) by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020 mainly reflects net proceeds from our first public follow-on equity offering during the second quarter of 2021 as compared to net repayment of debt in the first half of 2020.

(a) We may extend the Revolving Credit Facility twice, each for a six-month period, subject to certain conditions, including the payment of an extension fee equal to 0.0625% of the revolving commitments.

(b) Interest expense is projected based on the outstanding borrowings and interest rates in effect as of June 30, 2021. This amount includes the impact of interest rate swap agreements.

(c) We expect to pay tenant improvement allowances out of cash flows from operations or from additional borrowings.

At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, investment in rental property of $171.3 million and $173.5 million, respectively, was pledged as collateral against our mortgages.

Additionally, we are a party to three separate tax protection agreements with the contributing members of three distinct UPREIT transactions and we entered into the Founding Owners’ Tax Protection Agreement in connection with the Internalization. The tax protection agreements require us to indemnify the beneficiaries in the event of a sale, exchange, transfer, or other disposal of the contributed property, and in the case of the Founding Owners’ Tax Protection Agreement, the entire Company, in a taxable transaction that would cause such beneficiaries to recognize a gain that is protected under the agreements, subject to certain exceptions. Based on values as of June 30, 2021, taxable sales of the applicable properties would trigger liability under the four agreements of approximately $22.3 million. Based on information available, we do not believe that the events resulting in damages as detailed above have occurred or are likely to occur in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, we have excluded these commitments from the contractual commitments table above.

Non-GAAP Measures

FFO and AFFO

We compute FFO in accordance with the standards established by the Board of Governors of Nareit, the worldwide representative voice for REITs and publicly traded real estate companies with an interest in the U.S. real estate and capital markets. Nareit defines FFO as GAAP net income or loss adjusted to exclude net gains (losses) from sales of certain depreciated real estate assets, depreciation and amortization expense from real estate assets, gains and losses from change in control, and impairment charges related to certain previously depreciated real estate assets. To derive Adjusted Funds From Operations (“AFFO”), we modify the Nareit computation of FFO to include other adjustments to GAAP net income related to certain non-cash and non-recurring revenues and expenses, including straight-line rents, the change in fair value of our earnout liability, cost of debt extinguishments, amortization of lease intangibles, amortization of debt issuance costs, amortization of net mortgage premiums, (gain) loss on interest rate swaps and other non-cash interest expense, realized gains or losses on foreign currency transactions, internalization expenses, stock-based compensation, severance, extraordinary items, and other specified non-cash items. We believe that excluding such items assists management and investors in distinguishing whether changes in our operations are due to growth or decline of operations at our properties or from other factors.

Our leases include cash rents that increase over the term of the lease to compensate us for anticipated increases in market rental rates over time. Our leases do not include significant front-loading or back-loading of payments, or significant rent-free periods. Therefore, we find it useful to evaluate rent on a contractual basis as it allows for comparison of existing rental rates to market rental rates. In situations where we granted short-term rent deferrals as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and such deferrals were probable of collection and expected to be repaid within a short term, we continued to recognize the same amount of GAAP lease revenues each period. Consistent with GAAP lease revenues, the short-term deferrals associated with COVID-19 did not impact our AFFO.

We further exclude the change in fair value of our earnout liability, costs or gains recorded on the extinguishment of debt, non-cash interest expense and gains, the amortization of debt issuance costs, net mortgage premiums, and lease intangibles, realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions, internalization expenses, stock-based compensation and severance, as these items are not indicative of ongoing operational results. We use AFFO as a measure of our performance when we formulate corporate goals.

FFO is used by management, investors, and analysts to facilitate meaningful comparisons of operating performance between periods and among our peers, primarily because it excludes the effect of real estate depreciation and amortization and net gains on sales, which are based on historical costs and implicitly assume that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time, rather than fluctuating based on existing market conditions. We believe that AFFO is a useful supplemental measure for investors to consider because it will help them to better assess our operating performance without the distortions created by non-cash revenues or expenses. FFO and AFFO may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other REITs, and comparisons of our FFO and AFFO with the same or similar measures disclosed by other REITs may not be meaningful.

Neither the SEC nor any other regulatory body has passed judgment on the acceptability of the adjustments to FFO that we use to calculate AFFO. In the future, the SEC, Nareit, or another regulatory body may decide to standardize the allowable adjustments across the REIT industry and in response to such standardization we may have to adjust our calculation and characterization of AFFO accordingly.

The following table reconciles net income (which is the most comparable GAAP measure) to FFO and AFFO:

EBITDA, EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDAre and Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre

We compute EBITDA as earnings before interest, income taxes and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is a measure commonly used in our industry. We believe that this ratio provides investors and analysts with a measure of our performance that includes our operating results unaffected by the differences in capital structures, capital investment cycles and useful life of related assets compared to other companies in our industry. We compute EBITDAre in accordance with the definition adopted by Nareit, as EBITDA excluding gains (loss) from the sales of depreciable property and provisions for impairment on investment in real estate. We believe EBITDA and EBITDAre are useful to investors and analysts because they provide important supplemental information about our operating performance exclusive of certain non-cash and other costs. EBITDA and EBITDAre are not measures of financial performance under GAAP, and our EBITDA and EBITDAre may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. You should not consider our EBITDA and EBITDAre as alternatives to net income or cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP.

We are focused on a disciplined and targeted acquisition strategy, together with active asset management that includes selective sales of properties. We manage our leverage profile using a ratio of Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre, each discussed further below, which we believe is a useful measure of our ability to repay debt and a relative measure of leverage, and is used in communications with our lenders and rating agencies regarding our credit rating. As we fund new acquisitions using our unsecured Revolving Credit Facility, our leverage profile and Net Debt will be immediately impacted by current quarter acquisitions. However, the full benefit of EBITDAre from newly acquired properties will not be received in the same quarter in which the properties are acquired. Additionally, EBITDAre for the quarter includes amounts generated by properties that have been sold during the quarter. Accordingly, the variability in EBITDAre caused by the timing of our acquisitions and dispositions can temporarily distort our leverage ratios. We adjust EBITDAre (“Adjusted EBITDAre”) for the most recently completed quarter (i) to recalculate as if all acquisitions and dispositions had occurred at the beginning of the quarter, (ii) to exclude certain GAAP income and expense amounts that are either non-cash, such as cost of debt extinguishments or the change in fair value of our earnout liability, or that we believe are one time, or unusual in nature because they relate to unique circumstances or transactions that had not previously occurred and which we do not anticipate occurring in the future,

42


 

and (iii) to eliminate the impact of lease termination fees and other items that are not a result of normal operations. We then annualize quarterly Adjusted EBITDAre by multiplying it by four (“Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre”). You should not unduly rely on this measure as it is based on assumptions and estimates that may prove to be inaccurate. Our actual reported EBITDAre for future periods may be significantly different from our Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre. Adjusted EBITDAre and Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre are not measurements of performance under GAAP, and our Adjusted EBITDAre and Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. You should not consider our Adjusted EBITDAre and Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre as alternatives to net income or cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP.

The following table reconciles net income (which is the most comparable GAAP measure) to EBITDA, EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre. Information is also presented with respect to Annualized EBITDAre and Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre:

Net Debt, Net Debt to Annualized EBITDAre and Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre

We define Net Debt as gross debt (total reported debt plus deferred financing costs) less cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. We believe that the presentation of Net Debt to Annualized EBITDAre and Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre is useful to investors and analysts because these ratios provide information about gross debt less cash and cash equivalents, which could be used to repay debt, compared to our performance as measured using EBITDAre, and is used in communications with lenders and rating agencies regarding our credit rating.

Critical Accounting Policies

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based upon our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses as well as other disclosures in the financial statements. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates and assumptions; however, actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions, which in turn could have a material impact on our financial statements. A summary of our significant accounting policies and procedures are included in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We believe there have been no significant changes during the six months ended June 30, 2021, to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

For information on the impact of recent accounting pronouncements on our business, see Note 2 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to certain market risks, one of the most predominant of which is a change in interest rates. Increases in interest rates can result in increased interest expense under our Revolving Credit Facility and other variable-rate debt. Increases in interest rates can also result in increased interest expense when our fixed rate debt matures and needs to be refinanced. We attempt to manage interest rate risk by entering into long-term fixed rate debt or by entering into interest rate swaps to convert certain variable-rate debt to a fixed rate. The interest rate swaps have been designated by us as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes and are reported at fair value. We have not entered, and do not intend to enter, into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes. Further information concerning our interest rate swaps can be found in Note 11 in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Our fixed-rate debt includes our Senior Notes, mortgages, and variable-rate debt converted to a fixed rate with the use of interest rate swaps. Our fixed-rate debt and outstanding interest rate swaps had carrying values and fair values of approximately $1.4 billion and $1.5 billion, respectively, as of June 30, 2021. Changes in market interest rates impact the fair value of our fixed-rate debt and interest rate swaps, but they have no impact on interest incurred or on cash flows. For instance, if interest rates were to increase 1%, and the fixed-rate debt balance were to remain constant, we would expect the fair value of our debt to decrease, similar to how the price of a bond decreases as interest rates rise. A 1% increase in market interest rates would have resulted in a decrease in the fair value of our fixed-rate debt and interest rate swaps of approximately $73.4 million as of June 30, 2021.

Borrowings pursuant to our Revolving Credit Facility and other variable-rate debt bear interest at rates based on LIBOR plus an applicable margin, and totaled $919.7 million as of June 30, 2021, of which $824.7 million was swapped to a fixed rate by our use of interest rate swaps. Taking into account the effect of our interest rate swaps, a 1% increase or decrease in interest would have a corresponding $1.0 million increase or decrease in interest expense annually.

With the exception of our interest rate swap transactions, we have not engaged in transactions in derivative financial instruments or derivative commodity instruments.

As of June 30, 2021, our financial instruments were not exposed to significant market risk due to foreign currency exchange risk.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As of and for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and were operating at a reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

44


 

Part II – OTHER INFORMATION

Excluding ordinary, routine litigation incidental to our business, we are not currently a party to legal proceedings that we believe would reasonably be expected to have material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. We are not aware of any material legal proceedings to which we or any of our subsidiaries are a party or to which any of our property is subject, nor are we aware of any such legal proceedings contemplated by government agencies.
