Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that are subject to risks and uncertainties. In particular, statements relating to our liquidity and capital resources, the performance of our properties and results of operations contain forward-looking statements. Furthermore, all of the statements regarding future financial performance (including market conditions and demographics) are forward-looking statements. We caution investors that any forward-looking statements presented in this quarterly report are based on management’s current beliefs and assumptions made by, and information currently available to, management. When used, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “estimate,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “result” and similar expressions that do not relate solely to historical matters are intended to identify forward-looking statements. You can also identify forward-looking statements by discussions of strategy, plans or intentions.

Forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions and may be affected by known and unknown risks, trends, uncertainties and factors that are beyond our control. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated or projected. We caution you therefore against relying on any of these forward-looking statements.

Some of the risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results, performance, liquidity or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include, among others, the following:

•

unfavorable changes in market and economic conditions in the United States and globally and in the specific markets where our properties are located;

•

risks associated with the current COVID-19 pandemic and the future outbreak of other highly infectious or contagious diseases;

•

risks associated with ownership of real estate;

•

limited ability to dispose of assets because of the relative illiquidity of real estate investments;

•

our multifamily properties are concentrated in certain geographic markets in the Southeastern and Southwestern United States, which makes us more susceptible to adverse developments in those markets;

•

increased risks associated with our strategy of acquiring value-enhancement multifamily properties rather than more conservative investment strategies;

•

potential reforms to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”) and the Federal National Mortgage Association;

•

competition could limit our ability to acquire attractive investment opportunities, which could adversely affect our profitability and impede our growth;

•

competition and any increased affordability of residential homes could limit our ability to lease our apartments or increase or maintain rents;

•

the relatively low residential mortgage rates may result in potential renters purchasing residences rather than leasing them, and as a result, cause a decline in our occupancy rates;

•

the risk that we may fail to consummate future property acquisitions;

•

failure of acquisitions to yield anticipated results;

•

risks associated with increases in interest rates and our ability to issue additional debt or equity securities in the future;

•

risks associated with selling apartment communities, which could limit our operational and financial flexibility;

•

contingent or unknown liabilities related to properties or businesses that we have acquired or may acquire;

•

lack of or insufficient amounts of insurance;

•

the risk that our environmental assessments may not identify all potential environmental liabilities and our remediation actions may be insufficient;

•

high costs associated with the investigation or remediation of environmental contamination, including asbestos, lead-based paint, chemical vapor, subsurface contamination and mold growth;

•

high costs associated with the compliance with various accessibility, environmental, building and health and safety laws and regulations, such as the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 and the Fair Housing Act;

•

risks associated with limited warranties we may obtain when purchasing properties;

•

exposure to decreases in market rents due to our short-term leases;

•

risks associated with operating through joint ventures and funds;

•

our dependence on information systems;

•

risks associated with breaches of our data security;

•

costs associated with being a public company, including compliance with securities laws;

•

the risk that our business could be adversely impacted if there are deficiencies in our disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting;

•

risks associated with our substantial current indebtedness and indebtedness we may incur in the future;

•

risks associated with derivatives or hedging activity;

•

loss of key personnel of NexPoint Advisors, L.P. (our “Sponsor”), NexPoint Real Estate Advisors, L.P. (our “Adviser”) and our property manager;

•

the risk that we may not replicate the historical results achieved by other entities managed or sponsored by affiliates of our Adviser, members of our Adviser’s management team or by our Sponsor or its affiliates;

•

risks associated with our Adviser’s ability to terminate the Advisory Agreement (as defined below);

•

our ability to change our major policies, operations and targeted investments without stockholder consent;

•

the substantial fees and expenses we pay to our Adviser and its affiliates;

•

risks associated with any potential internalization of our management functions;

•

conflicts of interest and competing demands for time faced by our Adviser, our Sponsor and their officers and employees;

•

the risk that we may compete with other entities affiliated with our Sponsor or property manager for properties and tenants;

•

failure to maintain our status as a REIT;

•

failure of our operating partnership to be taxable as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, possibly causing us to fail to qualify for or to maintain REIT status;

•

compliance with REIT requirements, which may limit our ability to hedge our liabilities effectively and cause us to forgo otherwise attractive opportunities, liquidate certain of our investments or incur tax liabilities;

•

risks associated with our ownership of interests in taxable REIT subsidiaries;

•

the recognition of taxable gains from the sale of properties as a result of the inability to complete certain like-kind exchanges in accordance with Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”);

•

the risk that the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) may consider certain sales of properties to be prohibited transactions, resulting in a 100% penalty tax on any taxable gain;

•

the ineligibility of dividends payable by REITs for the reduced tax rates available for some dividends;

•

risks associated with the stock ownership restrictions of the Code for REITs and the stock ownership limit imposed by our charter;

•

the ability of our board of directors to revoke our REIT qualification without stockholder approval;

•

recent and potential legislative or regulatory tax changes or other actions affecting REITs;

•

risks associated with the market for our common stock and the general volatility of the capital and credit markets;

•

failure to generate sufficient cash flows to service our outstanding indebtedness or pay distributions at expected levels;

•

risks associated with limitations of liability for and our indemnification of our directors and officers;

•

any other risks included under Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on February 22, 2021.

While forward-looking statements reflect our good faith beliefs, they are not guarantees of future performance. They are based on estimates and assumptions only as of the date of this quarterly report. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect changes in underlying assumptions or factors, new information, data or methods, future events or other changes, except as required by law.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Organization and Description of Business

NexPoint Residential Trust, Inc. (the “Company”, “we”, “our”) was incorporated in Maryland on September 19, 2014, and has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”). The Company is focused on “value-add” multifamily investments primarily located in the Southeastern and Southwestern United States. Substantially all of the Company’s business is conducted through NexPoint Residential Trust Operating Partnership, L.P. (the “OP”), the Company’s operating partnership. The Company owns its properties (the “Portfolio”) through the OP and its wholly owned taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”). The OP owns approximately 99.9% of the Portfolio; the TRS owns approximately 0.1% of the Portfolio. The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, NexPoint Residential Trust Operating Partnership GP, LLC (the “OP GP”), is the sole general partner of the OP. As of June 30, 2021, there were 23,819,402 common units in the OP (“OP Units”) outstanding, of which 23,746,169, or 99.7%, were owned by the Company and 73,233, or 0.3%, were owned by a noncontrolling limited partner (see Note 10).

The Company is externally managed by NexPoint Real Estate Advisors, L.P. (the “Adviser”), through an agreement dated March 16, 2015, as amended, and renewed on February 15, 2021 for a one-year term (the “Advisory Agreement”), by and among the Company, the OP and the Adviser. The Adviser conducts substantially all of the Company’s operations and provides asset management services for its real estate investments. The Company expects it will only have accounting employees while the Advisory Agreement is in effect. All of the Company’s investment decisions are made by the Adviser, subject to general oversight by the Adviser’s investment committee and the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”). The Adviser is wholly owned by NexPoint Advisors, L.P. (the “Sponsor”).

The Company’s investment objectives are to maximize the cash flow and value of properties owned, acquire properties with cash flow growth potential, provide quarterly cash distributions and achieve long-term capital appreciation for its stockholders through targeted management and a value-add program. Consistent with the Company’s policy to acquire assets for both income and capital gain, the Company intends to hold at least majority interests in its properties for long-term appreciation and to engage in the business of directly or indirectly acquiring, owning, and operating well-located multifamily properties with a value-add component in large cities and suburban submarkets of large cities primarily in the Southeastern and Southwestern United States consistent with its investment objectives. Economic and market conditions may influence the Company to hold properties for different periods of time. From time to time, the Company may sell a property if, among other deciding factors, the sale would be in the best interest of its stockholders.

The Company may allocate up to 30% of the Portfolio to investments in real estate-related debt and securities with the potential for high current income or total returns. These allocations may include first and second mortgages and subordinated, bridge, mezzanine, construction and other loans, as well as debt securities related to or secured by multifamily real estate and common and preferred equity securities, which may include securities of other REITs or real estate companies.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Accounting

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the dates of the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual amounts realized or paid could differ from those estimates. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. There have been no significant changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year financial statements to conform to classifications used in the current year. These reclassifications had no impact on net income (loss), stockholders' equity or cash flows as previously reported.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared according to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted according to such rules and regulations, although management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments and eliminations necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 have been included. Such adjustments are normal and recurring in nature. The unaudited information included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 and notes thereto included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 22, 2021.

Principles of Consolidation

The Company accounts for subsidiary partnerships, joint ventures and other similar entities in which it holds an ownership interest in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation. The Company first evaluates whether each entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”). Under the VIE model, the Company consolidates an entity when it has control to direct the activities of the VIE and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Under the voting model, the Company consolidates an entity when it controls the entity through ownership of a majority voting interest. The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, including the OP and its subsidiaries.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s primary operations consist of rental income earned from its residents under lease agreements typically with terms of one year or less. Rental income is recognized when earned. This policy effectively results in income recognition on the straight-line method over the related terms of the leases. The Company records an allowance to reflect revenue that may not be collectable. This is recorded through a provision for bad debts which is included in rental income in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Resident reimbursements and other income consist of charges billed to residents for utilities, carport and garage rental, and pets, administrative, application and other fees and are recognized when earned. The Company implemented the provisions of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”) as of January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective approach. The adoption of ASU 2014-09 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as a substantial portion of its revenue consists of rental income from leasing arrangements, which is specifically excluded from ASU 2014-09.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (“ASU 2016-02”), which supersedes the current accounting for leases and while retaining two distinct types of leases, finance and operating, (1) requires lessees to record a right of use asset and a related liability for the rights and obligations associated with a lease, regardless of lease classification, and recognize lease expense in a manner similar to current accounting, (2) eliminates most real estate specific lease provisions and (3) aligns many of the underlying lessor model principles with those in the new revenue standard. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases today. Entities are required to use a modified retrospective approach when transitioning to the ASU for leases that exist as of or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. As lessors, substantially all of the Company’s agreements have a term of 12 months or less. For lessors, accounting for leases under the new standard is substantially the same as existing guidance for sales-type leases, direct financing leases, and operating leases, but eliminates current real estate specific provisions and changes the treatment of initial direct costs.

In April 2020, the FASB issued a Staff Q&A on accounting for leases during the COVID-19 pandemic, focused on the application of lease guidance in ASC 842, Leases. The Q&A states that some lease contracts may contain explicit or implicit enforceable rights and obligations that require lease concessions if certain circumstances arise that are beyond the control of the parties to the contract. Therefore, entities would need to perform a lease-by-lease analysis to determine whether contractual provisions in an existing lease agreement provide enforceable rights and obligations related to lease concessions. The FASB determined it would be acceptable for entities to not perform a lease-by-lease analysis regarding rent concessions resulting from COVID-19, and to instead make a policy election regarding rent concessions, which would give entities the option to account or not to account for these rent concessions as lease modifications if the total payments required by the modified contract are substantially the same or less than the total payments required by the original contract. Entities making the election to account for these rent concessions as lease modifications would recognize the effects of rent abatements and rent deferrals on a prospective straight-line basis over the remainder of the modified contract. We have made the election to not perform a lease-by-lease analysis to determine whether contractual provisions in an existing lease agreement provide enforceable rights and obligations related to payment plans. By electing the FASB relief, we have also made an accounting policy election to not account for rent deferrals provided to lessees due to the COVID-19 pandemic as lease modifications. Lessees are required to pay the full outstanding balance of the rent deferred over the period of the payment plan.

Purchase Price Allocation

Upon acquisition of a property, the purchase price and related acquisition costs (“total consideration”) are allocated to land, buildings, improvements, furniture, fixtures, and equipment, and intangible lease assets in accordance with FASB ASC 805, Business Combinations. Acquisition costs are capitalized in accordance with FASB ASC 805.

The allocation of total consideration, which is determined using inputs that are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy established by FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) (see Note 7), is based on management’s estimate of the property’s “as-if” vacant fair value and is calculated by using all available information such as the replacement cost of such asset, appraisals, property condition reports, market data and other related information. The allocation of the total consideration to intangible lease assets represents the value associated with the in-place leases, which may include lost rent,

leasing commissions, legal and other related costs, which the Company, as buyer of the property, did not have to incur to obtain the residents. If any debt is assumed in an acquisition, the difference between the fair value, which is estimated using inputs that are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, and the face value of debt is recorded as a premium or discount and amortized as interest expense over the life of the debt assumed.

Real estate assets, including land, buildings, improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment, and intangible lease assets are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Costs incurred in making repairs and maintaining real estate assets are expensed as incurred. Expenditures for improvements, renovations, and replacements are capitalized at cost. Real estate-related depreciation and amortization are computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives as described in the following table:

Land		Not depreciated
Buildings		30 years
Improvements		15 years
Furniture, fixtures, and equipment		3 years
Intangible lease assets		6 months

Construction in progress includes the cost of renovation projects being performed at the various properties. Once a project is complete, the historical cost of the renovation is placed into service in one of the categories above depending on the type of renovation project and is depreciated over the estimated useful lives as described in the table above.

Impairment

Real estate assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The key inputs into our impairment analysis include, but are not limited to, the holding period, net operating income, and capitalization rates. In such cases, the Company will evaluate the recoverability of such real estate assets based on estimated future cash flows and the estimated liquidation value of such real estate assets, and provide for impairment if such undiscounted cash flows are insufficient to recover the carrying amount of the real estate asset. If impaired, the real estate asset will be written down to its estimated fair value. The Company’s impairment analysis identifies and evaluates events or changes in circumstances that indicate the carrying amount of a real estate investment may not be recoverable, including determining the period the Company will hold the rental property, net operating income, and the estimated capitalization rate for each respective real estate investment.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company has not recorded any impairment on its real estate assets. However, we continue to monitor the impact of COVID-19 (see “–Coronavirus (“COVID-19”)” for additional information, below).

Held for Sale

The Company periodically classifies real estate assets as held for sale when certain criteria are met in accordance with GAAP. At that time, the Company presents the net real estate assets and the net debt associated with the real estate held for sale separately in its consolidated balance sheet, and the Company ceases recording depreciation and amortization expense related to that property. Real estate held for sale is reported at the lower of its carrying amount or its estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell. As of June 30, 2021, there are two properties classified as held for sale. Held for sale assets on the consolidated balance sheet included approximately $0.2 million of accounts receivable and prepaid and other assets, and approximately $0.8 million of accounts payable, real estate taxes payable, security deposits, prepaid rents, and other accrued liabilities.

Income Taxes

The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and expects to continue to qualify as a REIT. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute annually at least 90% of its “REIT taxable income,” as defined by the Code, to its stockholders. As a REIT, the Company will be subject to federal income tax on its undistributed REIT taxable income and net capital gain and to a 4% nondeductible excise tax on any amount by which distributions it pays with respect to any calendar year are less than the sum of (1) 85% of its ordinary income, (2) 95% of its capital gain net income and (3) 100% of its undistributed income from prior years. The Company intends to operate in such a manner so as to qualify as a REIT, but no assurance can be given that the Company will operate in a manner so as to qualify as a REIT. Taxable income from certain non-REIT activities is managed through a TRS and is subject to applicable federal, state, and local income and margin taxes. The Company had no significant taxes associated with its TRS for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

If the Company fails to meet these requirements, it could be subject to federal income tax on all of the Company’s taxable income at regular corporate rates for that year. The Company would not be able to deduct distributions paid to stockholders in any year in which it fails to qualify as a REIT. Additionally, the Company will also be disqualified from electing to be taxed as a REIT for

the four taxable years following the year during which qualification was lost unless the Company is entitled to relief under specific statutory provisions. As of June 30, 2021, the Company believes it is in compliance with all applicable REIT requirements.

The Company evaluates the accounting and disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Company’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” (greater than 50 percent probability) of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. The Company’s management is required to analyze all open tax years, as defined by the statute of limitations, for all major jurisdictions, which include federal and certain states. The Company has no examinations in progress and none are expected at this time.

The Company recognizes its tax positions and evaluates them using a two-step process. First, the Company determines whether a tax position is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. Second, the Company will determine the amount of benefit to recognize and record the amount that is more likely than not to be realized upon ultimate settlement.

The Company had no material unrecognized tax benefit or expense, accrued interest or penalties as of June 30, 2021. The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to federal income tax as well as income tax of various state and local jurisdictions. The 2020, 2019 and 2018 tax years remain open to examination by tax jurisdictions to which the Company and its subsidiaries are subject. When applicable, the Company recognizes interest and/or penalties related to uncertain tax positions on its consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) (“ASU 2020-04”). ASU 2020-04 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in ASU 2020-04 is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. During the first half of 2020, the Company has elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections as applicable as additional changes in the market occur.

Coronavirus (“COVID-19”)

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company may experience difficulties collecting monthly rent on time, leasing additional apartment units and/or renewing leases with existing tenants, selling or purchasing properties and accessing debt and equity capital on attractive terms, or at all. To date, the Company has not been materially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and will continue to monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of its business. As of June 30, 2021, 3,630 residents were on payment plans due to the COVID-19 pandemic for a total of approximately $5.8 million in rent. For additional information regarding the risks to the Company related to the COVID-19 pandemic, or any other future pandemic, see Item 1A, Risk Factors of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

3. Investments in Subsidiaries

The Company conducts its operations through the OP, which owns the properties through single asset limited liability companies that are special purpose entities (“SPEs”). The Company consolidates the SPEs that it controls as well as any VIEs where it is the primary beneficiary. In connection with its indirect equity investments in the properties acquired, the Company, through the OP and the TRS, directly or indirectly holds 100% of the membership interests in SPEs that directly own the properties. All of the properties the SPEs own are consolidated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The assets of each entity can only be used to settle obligations of that particular entity, and the creditors of each entity have no recourse to the assets of other entities or the Company.

Additionally, the Company has in the past and may in the future enter into purchase and sale transactions structured as reverse like-kind exchanges (“1031 Exchanges”) under Section 1031 of the Code. For a reverse 1031 Exchange in which the Company purchases a new property prior to selling the property to be matched in the like-kind exchange (the Company refers to the new property being acquired in the 1031 Exchange prior to the sale of the related property as a “Parked Asset”), legal title to the Parked Asset is held by an Exchange Accommodation Titleholder (“EAT”) engaged to execute the 1031 Exchange until the sale transaction and the 1031 Exchange are completed. The Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary, enters into a master lease agreement with the EAT whereby the EAT leases the acquired property and all other rights acquired in connection with the acquisition to the Company. The term of the master lease agreement is the earlier of the completion of the reverse 1031 Exchange or 180 days from the

date that the property was acquired. The EAT is classified as a VIE as it does not have sufficient equity investment at risk to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. The Company consolidates the EAT as its primary beneficiary because it has the ability to control the activities that most significantly impact the EAT’s economic performance and the Company retains all of the legal and economic benefits and obligations related to the Parked Assets prior to completion of the 1031 Exchange. As such, the Parked Assets are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as VIEs until legal title is transferred to the Company upon either completion of the 1031 Exchange or termination of the master lease agreement, at which time they will be consolidated as wholly owned subsidiaries.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company, through the OP and the wholly owned TRS, owned 39 properties through SPEs. The following table represents the Company’s ownership in each property by virtue of its 100% ownership of the SPEs that directly own the title to each property as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

(3)	The EAT that directly owned Torreyana, Bloom and Bella Solara was consolidated as a VIE at December 31, 2019. The master lease agreement with the EAT that directly owned these properties terminated on March 31, 2020, at which time legal title

transferred to the Company. Upon the transfer of the title, the EAT that directly owned these properties was no longer considered a VIE.

(4)

The EAT that directly owned The Verandas at Lake Norman and Creekside at Matthews was consolidated as a VIE at June 30, 2021 giving the Company an effective 100% ownership interest. Legal title will transfer to the Company upon completion of the reverse 1031 Exchange or December 28, 2021, whichever comes first. Upon the transfer of title, the EAT that directly owned these properties will no longer be considered a VIE.

(5)	Properties were acquired in 2021; therefore, no ownership as of December 31, 2020.

Cutter’s Point Casualty Losses

On October 20, 2019, as a result of a tornado, the Cutter’s Point property suffered significant property damage. The damage incurred rendered the property inoperable; therefore, the Company has ceased operations at the property as it is under reconstruction. In relation to this event, the Company wrote down the carrying value of Cutter’s Point by approximately $7.8 million, and, in accordance with ASC 610 Other Income, the Company recognized approximately $3.5 million in casualty losses on the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income during the year ended December 31, 2019. Lost rental income is insured and the Company expects any operating losses resulting from the damage to be immaterial while the property undergoes reconstruction. Starting November 1, 2019, the Company began capitalizing insurance expense, real estate taxes, interest expense and debt issuance costs to construction in progress and stopped depreciation due to Cutter’s Point being under development. As of June 30, 2021, approximately $0.8 million of these costs have been capitalized. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, Cutter's Point recognized $1.1 million in casualty gains on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) in relation to this event. The Company filed a business interruption insurance claim and recognized approximately $0.6 million for the lost rent, which is included in miscellaneous income on the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Upon completion of Phase I of the rebuild efforts, the Company returned 60 units to service in 2020; On June 21, 2021, 80 downed units were returned to service, of which 17 were occupied as of June 30, 2021. The remaining 56 units are currently being rebuilt as part of Phase II of the rebuild with an expected return to service late in 2021. As of June 30, 2021, we excluded 136 of the Cutter’s Point units from the Portfolio’s total unit count due to the limited amount of time the 80 returned units were available for the period ending June 30, 2021, and property reconstruction on 56 units which is estimated to be completed in 2021.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, Venue 8651 recognized approximately $0.1 million in business interruption proceeds for lost rent which is included in miscellaneous income on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, approximately $0.1 million of business interruption

for lost rent was recognized which is included in miscellaneous income on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

(1)	Mortgage debt that is non-recourse to the Company and encumbers the multifamily properties.

(2)

Interest rate is based on a reference rate plus an applicable margin, except for fixed rate mortgage debt. One-month LIBOR was 0.10050% and 30-Day Average Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) was 0.02733% as of June 30, 2021. Fairways at San Marcos, Verandas at Lake Norman, and Creekside at Matthews utilize 30-Day Average SOFR as its reference rate while all other properties utilize one-month LIBOR.

(3)

Loan can be pre-paid in the first 12 months of the term in certain circumstances at par plus 5.00%. Starting in the 13^th month of the term through the 81^st month of the term, the loan can be pre-paid at par plus 1.00% of the unpaid principal balance and at par during the last three months of the term.

(4)

Debt in the amount of $18.0 million was assumed upon acquisition of this property and recorded at approximated fair value. The assumed debt carries a 4.09% fixed rate, was originally issued in March 2013, and had a term of 120 months with an initial 24 months of interest only. At the time of acquisition, the principal balance of the first mortgage remained unchanged and had a remaining term of 98 months with 2 months of interest only. The first mortgage is pre-payable and subject to yield maintenance from the 13^th month through August 31, 2022 and is pre-payable at par September 1, 2022 until maturity. Concurrently with the acquisition of the property, the Company placed a supplemental second mortgage on the property with a principal amount of approximately $5.8 million, a fixed rate of 4.70%, and with a maturity date that is the same time as the first mortgage. The supplemental second mortgage is pre-payable and subject to yield maintenance from the date of issuance through August 31, 2022 and is pre-payable at par September 1, 2022 until maturity. As of June 30, 2021, the total indebtedness secured by the property had a blended interest rate of 4.24%.

(5)	Debt was assumed upon acquisition of this property and recorded at approximated fair value. The loan is open to pre-payment in the last four months of the term.

(7)

Debt was assumed upon acquisition of this property and recorded at approximated fair value. It can be pre-paid in the first 12 months of the term in certain circumstances at par plus 5.00%. Starting in the 13^th month of the term through the 81^st month of the term, the loan can be pre-paid at par plus 1.00% of the unpaid principal balance and at par during the last three months of the term.

(8)

Debt was assumed upon acquisition of this property and recorded at approximated fair value. The loan can be prepaid at the greater of par plus 1.00% of the unpaid principal balance or the product obtained by multiplying the present value of the principal being prepaid by the excess of the monthly fixed interest rate of the loan over a daily discount rate. The loan is open to pre-payment in the last three months of the term.

(9)

Starting in the 25^th month of the term through the 36^th month of the term, the loan can be pre-paid at par plus 2% of the unpaid principal balance. Starting in the 37^th month of the term, the loan can be pre-paid at par plus 1% of the unpaid principal balance. The loan is open to pre-payment in the last three months of the term.

The Company reflected a valuation adjustment on its fixed rate debt for Parc500 and Residences at West Place to adjust it to fair market value on their respective dates of acquisition for the difference between the fair value and the assumed principal amount of debt. The difference is amortized into interest expense over the remaining terms of the mortgages.

The weighted average interest rate of the Company’s mortgage indebtedness was 1.79% as of June 30, 2021 and 1.83% as of December 31, 2020. The decrease between the periods is primarily related to a decrease in one-month LIBOR of approximately 4 basis points to 0.10050% as of June 30, 2021 from 0.14388% as of December 31, 2020. As of June 30, 2021, the adjusted weighted average interest rate of the Company’s mortgage indebtedness was 2.97%. For purposes of calculating the adjusted weighted average interest rate of the outstanding mortgage indebtedness, the Company has included the weighted average fixed rate of 1.3461% for one-month LIBOR on its combined $1.2 billion notional amount of interest rate swap agreements, which effectively fix the interest rate on $1.2 billion of the Company’s floating rate mortgage debt (see Note 7).

Each of the Company’s mortgages is a non-recourse obligation subject to customary provisions. The loan agreements contain customary events of default, including defaults in the payment of principal or interest, defaults in compliance with the covenants contained in the documents evidencing the loan, defaults in payments under any other security instrument covering any part of the property, whether junior or senior to the loan, and bankruptcy or other insolvency events. As of June 30, 2021, the Company believes it is in compliance with all provisions.

Freddie Mac Multifamily Green Advantage. In order to obtain more favorable pricing on the Company’s mortgage debt financing with Freddie Mac, the Company decided to participate in Freddie Mac’s Multifamily Green Advantage program (the “Green Program”). As of June 30, 2021, the Company had completed its Green Program improvements on all but one property, which is expected to be completed in 2021. The Company expects to reduce water/sewer costs at each property where the Green Program is implemented by at least 15% through the replacement of showerheads, plumbing fixtures and toilets with modern energy efficient upgrades. Due to changes in Freddie Mac’s requirements to participate in the Green Program, the Company is not implementing this on acquisitions going forward.

Credit Facility

The following table contains summary information concerning the Company’s credit facility as of June 30, 2021 (dollars in thousands):

	Type	Term (months)		Outstanding Principal			Interest Rate (1)	Maturity Date
Corporate Credit Facility	Floating		36	$	250,000		2.50%	6/30/2024
Deferred financing costs, net of accumulated amortization of $0					(1,506	)
				$	248,494

(1)	Interest rate is based on one-month LIBOR plus an applicable margin. One-month LIBOR as of June 30, 2021 was 0.10050%.

Corporate Credit Facility. On June 30, 2021, we through our OP entered into a secured $250.0 million revolving and term credit facility with Truist Bank (“Truist”), as administrative agent, and the lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Corporate Credit Facility”). Subject to conditions provided in the Credit Facility, the Credit Facility may be increased up to an additional $100.0 million at the Company’s option if the lenders agree to increase their commitments. The Corporate Credit Facility will mature on June 30, 2024, unless the Company exercises its option to voluntarily and permanently reduce all of the commitments before the maturity date or elects to exercise its right and option to extend the facility for a one-year term. As of June 30, 2021, there was $250.0 million in aggregate principal outstanding on the Corporate Credit Facility. Additionally, on June 30, 2021, in connection with entering into the Corporate Credit Facility, the Company, through the OP, terminated its $225.0 million revolving credit facility with Truist, as administrative agent, and the lenders from party thereto, prior to the maturity date of January 28, 2022.

Advances under the Corporate Credit Facility accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to, at the Company’s election, either LIBOR plus a margin of 1.90% to 2.40%, depending on the Company’s total leverage ratio, or a base rate determined according to the highest of (a) the prime rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (c) LIBOR plus 1.0% or (d) 0.0% plus a margin of 0.90% to 1.40%, depending on the Company’s total leverage ratio. An unused commitment fee at a rate of 0.15% or 0.25%, depending on the outstanding aggregate revolving commitments, applies to unutilized borrowing capacity under the Corporate Credit Facility. Amounts owing under the Corporate Credit Facility may be prepaid at any time without premium or penalty. The Corporate Credit Facility is guaranteed by the Company and the obligations under the Credit Facility are, subject to some exceptions, secured by a continuing security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company.

Deferred Financing Costs

The Company defers costs incurred in obtaining financing and amortizes the costs over the terms of the related loans using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest method. Deferred financing costs, net of amortization, are recorded as a reduction from the related debt on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company wrote-off deferred financing costs of approximately $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively, which is included in loss on extinguishment of debt and modification costs on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, amortization of deferred financing costs of approximately $0.5 million and $0.7 million, respectively, is included in interest expense on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, amortization of deferred financing costs of approximately $1.1 million and $1.4 million, respectively, is included in interest expense on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt and Modification Costs

Loss on extinguishment of debt and modification costs includes prepayment penalties and defeasance costs incurred on the early repayment of debt, costs incurred in a debt modification that are not capitalized as deferred financing costs and other costs incurred in a debt extinguishment. Upon repayment of or in conjunction with a material change in the terms of the underlying debt agreement, any unamortized costs are charged to loss on extinguishment of debt and modification costs. For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company wrote-off deferred financing costs of approximately $0.3 million and $0.0 million, respectively, which is included in loss on extinguishment of debt and modification costs on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

Schedule of Debt Maturities

The aggregate scheduled maturities, including amortizing principal payments, of total debt for the next five calendar years subsequent to June 30, 2021 are as follows (in thousands):

7. Fair Value of Derivatives and Financial Instruments

Fair value measurements are determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy):

•

Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.

•

Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

•

Level 3 inputs are the unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are typically based on an entity’s own assumption, as there is little, if any, related market activity. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on input from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. The Company utilizes independent third parties to perform the allocation of value analysis for each property acquisition and to perform the market valuations on its derivative financial instruments and has established policies, as described above, processes and procedures intended to ensure that the valuation methodologies for investments and derivative financial instruments are fair and consistent as of the measurement date.

Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its debt funding and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company may enter into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash payments principally related to the Company’s borrowings. In order to minimize counterparty credit risk, the Company enters into and expects to enter into hedging arrangements only with major financial institutions that have high credit ratings.

The Company utilizes an independent third party to perform the market valuations on its derivative financial instruments. The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. The fair values of interest rate swaps are determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts (or payments) and the discounted expected variable cash payments (or receipts). The variable cash payments (or receipts) are based on an expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves. The fair values of interest rate caps are determined using the market standard methodology of discounting the future expected cash receipts that would occur if variable interest rates rise above the strike rate of the caps. The variable interest rates used in the calculation of projected receipts on

the cap are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves and volatilities. To comply with the provisions of ASC 820, the Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both the Company’s own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of the Company’s derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, the Company has considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts and guarantees. Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with the Company’s derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. The Company has determined that the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments made to its derivative contracts, which determination was based on the fair value of each individual contract, was not significant to the overall valuation. As a result, all of the Company’s derivatives held as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company’s main objective in using interest rate derivatives is to add stability to interest expense related to floating rate debt. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps and caps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. The interest rate swaps have terms ranging from four to five years. Interest rate caps involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty if interest rates rise above the strike rate on the contract in exchange for an up-front premium. The interest rate caps have terms ranging from three to four years. During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, interest rate cap derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with a portion of the Company’s floating rate debt. The interest rate cap agreements the Company has entered into effectively cap one-month LIBOR on $428.8 million of the Company’s floating rate mortgage indebtedness at a weighted average rate of 5.28% as of June 30, 2021.

In order to fix a portion of, and mitigate the risk associated with, the Company’s floating rate indebtedness (without incurring substantial prepayment penalties or defeasance costs typically associated with fixed rate indebtedness when repaid early or refinanced), the Company, through the OP, has entered into nine interest rate swap transactions with KeyBank National Association (“KeyBank”) and two with Truist Bank (the “Counterparties”) with a combined notional amount of $1.2 billion which are effective as of June 30, 2021. The interest rate swaps the Company has entered into effectively replace the floating interest rate (one-month LIBOR) with respect to that amount with a weighted average fixed rate of 1.3461%. The Company has designated these interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had the following outstanding interest rate swaps that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk (dollars in thousands):

Other Financial Instruments Carried at Fair Value

Redeemable noncontrolling interests in the OP have a redemption feature and are marked to their redemption value if such value exceeds the carrying value of the redeemable noncontrolling interests in the OP (see Note 10). The redemption value is based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock at the redemption date, and therefore, is calculated based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock at the balance sheet date. Since the valuation is based on observable inputs such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, redeemable noncontrolling interests in the OP are classified as Level 2 if they are adjusted to their redemption value.

Financial Instruments Not Carried at Fair Value

At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, prepaid and other assets, accounts payable and other accrued liabilities, accrued real estate taxes payable, accrued interest payable, security deposits and prepaid rent approximated their carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The estimated fair values of other financial instruments were determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair values. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company would realize on the disposition of the financial instruments. The use of different market assumptions or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

Long-term indebtedness is carried at amounts that reasonably approximate their fair value at the time they were recognized. In calculating the fair value of its long-term indebtedness, the Company used interest rate and spread assumptions that reflect current credit worthiness and market conditions available for the issuance of long-term debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. These financial instruments utilize Level 2 inputs.

The table below presents the carrying value and estimated fair value of our debt at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 (in thousands):

Real estate assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. In such cases, the Company will evaluate the recoverability of such real estate assets based on estimated future cash flows and the estimated liquidation value of such real estate assets, and provide for impairment if such undiscounted cash flows are insufficient to recover the carrying amount of the real estate asset. If impaired, the real estate asset will be written down to its estimated fair value. There can be no assurance that the estimates discussed herein, using Level 3 inputs, are indicative of the amounts the Company could realize on disposition of the real estate asset. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company did not record any impairment charges related to real estate assets.

8. Stockholders’ Equity

Share Repurchase Program

On June 15, 2016, the Board authorized the Company to repurchase up to $30.0 million of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share, during a two-year period that was set to expire on June 15, 2018 (the “Share Repurchase Program”). On April 30, 2018, the Board increased the Share Repurchase Program from $30.0 million to up to $40.0 million and extended it by an additional two years to June 15, 2020. On March 13, 2020, the Board further increased the Share Repurchase Program from $40.0 million to up to $100.0 million and extended it to March 12, 2023. The Company may utilize various methods to effect the repurchases, and the timing and extent of the repurchases will depend upon several factors, including market and business conditions, regulatory requirements and other corporate considerations, including whether the Company’s common stock is trading at a significant discount to net asset value per share. Repurchases under this program may be discontinued at any time. During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company repurchased zero and 1,644,697 shares of its common stock. Since the inception of the Share Repurchase Program through June 30, 2021, the Company had repurchased 2,382,155 shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share, at a total cost of approximately $61.2 million, or $25.70 per share.

Treasury Shares

From time to time, in accordance with the Company’s Share Repurchase Program, the Company may repurchase shares of its common stock in the open market. Until any such shares are retired, the cost of the shares is included in common stock held in treasury at cost on the consolidated balance sheet. The number of shares of common stock classified as treasury shares reduces the number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding and, accordingly, are considered in the weighted average number of

shares outstanding during the period. During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company retired zero and 1,644,697 shares of its common stock held in treasury. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had no shares of common stock held in treasury.

Long Term Incentive Plan

On June 15, 2016, the Company’s stockholders approved a long-term incentive plan (the “2016 LTIP”) and the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-8 registering 2,100,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, which the Company may issue pursuant to the 2016 LTIP. The 2016 LTIP authorizes the compensation committee of the Board to provide equity-based compensation in the form of stock options, appreciation rights, restricted shares, restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units and certain other awards denominated or payable in, or otherwise based on, the Company’s common stock or factors that may influence the value of the Company’s common stock, plus cash incentive awards, for the purpose of providing the Company’s directors, officers and other key employees (and those of the Adviser and the Company’s subsidiaries), the Company’s non-employee directors, and potentially certain non-employees who perform employee-type functions, incentives and rewards for performance.

Restricted Stock Units

Under the 2016 LTIP, restricted stock units may be granted to the Company’s directors, officers and other key employees (and those of the Adviser and the Company’s subsidiaries) and typically vest over a three to five-year period for officers, employees and certain key employees of the Adviser and annually for directors. Beginning on the date of grant, restricted stock units earn dividends that are payable in cash on the vesting date. On August 11, 2016, pursuant to the 2016 LTIP, the Company granted 209,797 restricted stock units to its directors and officers. On March 16, 2017, pursuant to the 2016 LTIP, the Company granted 219,802 restricted stock units to its directors and officers. On February 15, 2018, pursuant to the 2016 LTIP, the Company granted 275,795 restricted stock units to its directors, officers, employees and certain key employees of the Adviser. On February 21, 2019, pursuant to the 2016 LTIP, the Company granted 186,662 restricted stock units to its directors, officers, employees and certain key employees of the Adviser. On February 20, 2020, pursuant to the 2016 LTIP, the Company granted 168,183 restricted stock units to its directors, officers, employees and certain key employees of the Adviser. On May 11, 2020, pursuant to the 2016 LTIP, the Company granted 116,852 restricted stock units to its directors, officers, employees and certain key employees of the Adviser. On February 18, 2021, pursuant to the 2016 LTIP, the Company granted 204,663 restricted stock units to its directors, officers, employees and certain key employees of the Adviser. The following table includes the number of restricted stock units granted, vested, forfeited and outstanding as of June 30, 2021:

At-the-Market Offering

On February 20, 2019, the Company, the OP and the Adviser entered into separate equity distribution agreements with each of Jefferies LLC (“Jefferies”), Raymond James & Associates, Inc. (“Raymond James”) and Truist Securities, Inc. f/k/a SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, Inc. (“Truist”, and together with Raymond James and Jefferies, the “2019 ATM Sales Agents”), pursuant to which the Company may issue and sell from time to time shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, having an aggregate sales price of up to $100,000,000 (the “2019 ATM Program”). Sales of shares of common stock, if any, may be made in transactions that are deemed to be “at the market” offerings, as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), including, without limitation, sales made by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions on the New York Stock Exchange, to or through a market maker at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices based on prevailing market prices. In addition to the issuance and sale of shares of common stock, the Company could enter into forward sale agreements with each of Jefferies and Raymond James, or their respective affiliates, through the 2019 ATM Program. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company issued 560,000 shares of common stock at an average price of $50.00 per share for gross proceeds of $28.0 million under the 2019 ATM Program. The Company paid approximately $0.4 million in fees to the 2019 ATM Sales Agents with respect to such sales and incurred other issuance costs of approximately $0.4 million, both of which were netted against the gross proceeds and recorded in additional paid in capital. On February 27, 2020, the 2019 ATM Program reached aggregate sales of $100,000,000 and has therefore expired.

9. Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding, which excludes any unvested restricted stock units issued pursuant to the 2016 LTIP. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by adjusting basic earnings (loss) per share for the dilutive effect of the assumed vesting of restricted stock units. During periods of net loss, the assumed vesting of restricted stock units is anti-dilutive and is not included in the calculation of earnings (loss) per share.

The effect of the conversion of OP Units held by noncontrolling limited partners is not reflected in the computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share, as they are exchangeable for common stock on a one-for-one basis. The income (loss) allocable to such units is allocated on this same basis and reflected as net income (loss) attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests in the OP in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). As such, the assumed conversion of these units would have no net impact on the determination of diluted earnings (loss) per share. See Note 10 for additional information.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share for the periods presented (in thousands, except per share amounts):

		For the Three Months Ended June 30,						For the Six Months Ended June 30,
		2021			2020			2021			2020
Numerator for earnings (loss) per share:
Net income (loss)		$	(3,418	)	$	(9,318	)	$	(10,318	)	$	18,721
Net income (loss) attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership			(10	)		(28	)		(31	)		56
Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders		$	(3,408	)	$	(9,290	)	$	(10,287	)	$	18,665

Denominator for earnings (loss) per share:
Weighted average common shares outstanding			25,140			24,307			25,104			24,847
Denominator for basic earnings (loss) per share			25,140			24,307			25,104			24,847
Weighted average unvested restricted stock units			613			503			596			483
Denominator for diluted earnings per share	(1)		25,140			24,307			25,104			25,330

Earnings (loss) per weighted average common share:
Basic		$	(0.14	)	$	(0.38	)	$	(0.41	)	$	0.75
Diluted		$	(0.14	)	$	(0.38	)	$	(0.41	)	$	0.74

(1)	If the Company sustains a net loss for the period presented, unvested restricted stock units are not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation.

10. Noncontrolling Interests

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests in the OP

Interests in the OP held by limited partners are represented by OP Units. Net income (loss) is allocated to holders of OP Units based upon net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders and the weighted average number of OP Units outstanding to total common shares plus OP Units outstanding during the period. Capital contributions, distributions, and profits and losses are allocated to OP Units in accordance with the terms of the partnership agreement of the OP. Each time the OP distributes cash to the Company, outside limited partners of the OP receive their pro-rata share of the distribution. Redeemable noncontrolling interests in the OP have a redemption feature and are marked to their redemption value if such value exceeds the carrying value of the redeemable noncontrolling interests in the OP.

On June 30, 2017, the Company and the OP entered into a contribution agreement with BH Equities, LLC and its affiliates (collectively, “BH Equity”), whereby the Company purchased 100% of the joint venture interests in the Portfolio owned by BH Equity, representing approximately 8.4% ownership in the Portfolio (the “BH Buyout”), for total consideration of approximately $51.7 million (the “Purchase Amount”). The Purchase Amount consisted of approximately $49.7 million in cash that was paid on June 30, 2017 and 73,233 OP Units (initially valued at $2.0 million) that were issued on August 1, 2017. The number of OP Units issued was calculated by dividing $2.0 million by the midpoint of the range of the Company’s net asset value as publicly disclosed in connection with the Company’s release of its second quarter of 2017 earnings results, which was $27.31 per share.

In connection with the issuance of OP Units to BH Equity on August 1, 2017, the Company and the OP amended the partnership agreement of the OP (the “Amendment”). Pursuant to the Amendment, limited partners holding OP Units have the right to cause the OP to redeem their units at a redemption price equal to and in the form of the Cash Amount (as defined in the partnership agreement of the OP), provided that such OP Units have been outstanding for at least one year. The Company, through the OP GP, as the general partner of the OP may, in its sole discretion, purchase the OP Units by paying to the limited partner either the Cash Amount or the REIT Share Amount (one share of common stock of the Company for each OP Unit), as defined in the partnership agreement of the OP. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a limited partner will not be entitled to exercise its redemption right to the extent the issuance of the Company’s common stock to the redeeming limited partner would (1) be prohibited, as determined in the Company’s sole discretion, under the Company’s charter or (2) cause the acquisition of common stock by such redeeming limited partner to be “integrated” with any other distribution of the Company’s common stock for purposes of complying with the Securities Act. Accordingly, the Company records the OP Units held by noncontrolling limited partners outside of permanent equity and reports the OP Units at the greater of their carrying value or their redemption value using the Company’s stock price at each balance sheet date.

The following table sets forth the redeemable noncontrolling interests in the OP for the six months ended June 30, 2021 (in thousands):

Redeemable noncontrolling interests in the OP, December 31, 2020	$	3,098
Net loss attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests in the OP		(31	)
Other comprehensive income attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests in the OP		80
Contributions from redeemable noncontrolling interests in the OP		6
Distributions to redeemable noncontrolling interests in the OP		(52	)
Adjustment to reflect redemption value of redeemable noncontrolling interests in the OP		925
Redeemable noncontrolling interests in the OP, June 30, 2021	$	4,026

Noncontrolling Interests

Noncontrolling interests have in the past and may in the future be comprised of joint venture partners’ interests in joint ventures the Company consolidates. When applicable, the Company reports its joint venture partners’ interests in its consolidated joint ventures and other subsidiary interests held by third parties as noncontrolling interests. The Company records these noncontrolling interests at their initial fair value, adjusting the basis prospectively for their share of the respective consolidated investment’s net income or loss, equity contributions, return of capital, and distributions. Generally, these noncontrolling interests are not redeemable by the equity holders and are presented as part of permanent equity. Income and losses are allocated to the noncontrolling interest holder based on its economic ownership percentage.

Fees and Reimbursements to BH and its Affiliates

The Company has entered into management agreements with BH Management Services, LLC (“BH”), the Company’s property manager and an independently owned third party, who manages the Company’s properties and supervises the implementation of the Company’s value-add program. BH is an affiliate of BH Equity, who was a noncontrolling interest member of the Company’s joint ventures prior to the BH Buyout on June 30, 2017. Through BH Equity’s noncontrolling interests in such joint ventures, BH Equity was deemed to be a related party. With the completion of the BH Buyout, BH Equity is no longer deemed to be a related party. BH Equity became a noncontrolling limited partner of the OP upon execution of the Amendment. BH and its affiliates do not have common ownership in any joint venture with the Adviser; there is also no common ownership between BH and its affiliates and the Adviser.

The property management fee paid to BH is approximately 3% of the monthly gross income from each property managed. Currently, BH manages all of the Company’s properties. Additionally, the Company may pay BH certain other fees, including: (1) a fee of $15-25 per unit for the one-time setup and inspection of properties, (2) a construction supervision fee of 5-6% of total project costs, which is capitalized, (3) acquisition fees and due diligence costs reimbursements, and (4) other owner approved fees at $55 per hour. BH also acts as a paymaster for the properties and is reimbursed at cost for various operating expenses it pays on behalf of the properties. The following is a summary of fees that the properties incurred to BH and its affiliates, as well as reimbursements paid to BH from the properties for various operating expenses, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands):

		For the Three Months Ended June 30,				For the Six Months Ended June 30,

11. Related Party Transactions

Advisory and Administrative Fee

In accordance with the Advisory Agreement, the Company pays the Adviser an advisory fee equal to 1.00% of the Average Real Estate Assets (as defined below). The duties performed by the Company’s Adviser under the terms of the Advisory Agreement include, but are not limited to: providing daily management for the Company, selecting and working with third party service providers, managing the Company’s properties or overseeing the third party property manager, formulating an investment strategy for the Company and selecting suitable properties and investments, managing the Company’s outstanding debt and its interest rate exposure through derivative instruments, determining when to sell assets, and managing the value-add program or overseeing a third party vendor that implements the value-add program. “Average Real Estate Assets” means the average of the aggregate book value of Real Estate Assets before reserves for depreciation or other non-cash reserves, computed by taking the average of the book value of real estate assets at the end of each month (1) for which any fee under the Advisory Agreement is calculated or (2) during the year for which any expense reimbursement under the Advisory Agreement is calculated. “Real Estate Assets” is defined broadly in the Advisory Agreement to include, among other things, investments in real estate-related securities and mortgages and reserves for capital expenditures (the value-add program). The advisory fee is payable monthly in arrears in cash, unless the Adviser elects, in its sole discretion, to receive all or a portion of the advisory fee in shares of common stock, subject to certain limitations.

In accordance with the Advisory Agreement, the Company also pays the Adviser an administrative fee equal to 0.20% of the Average Real Estate Assets. The administrative fee is payable monthly in arrears in cash, unless the Adviser elects, in its sole discretion, to receive all or a portion of the administrative fee in shares of common stock, subject to certain limitations.

The advisory and administrative fees paid to the Adviser on the Contributed Assets (as defined in the Advisory Agreement) are subject to an annual cap of approximately $5.4 million (the “Contributed Assets Cap”) (see “Expense Cap” below).

Pursuant to the terms of the Advisory Agreement, the Company will reimburse the Adviser for all documented Operating Expenses and Offering Expenses it incurs on behalf of the Company. “Operating Expenses” include legal, accounting, financial and due diligence services performed by the Adviser that outside professionals or outside consultants would otherwise perform, the Company’s pro rata share of rent, telephone, utilities, office furniture, equipment, machinery and other office, internal and overhead expenses of the Adviser required for the Company’s operations, and compensation expenses under the 2016 LTIP. Operating Expenses do not include expenses for the advisory and administrative services described in the Advisory Agreement. Certain Operating Expenses, such as the Company’s ratable share of rent, telephone, utilities, office furniture, equipment, machinery and other office, internal and overhead expenses incurred by the Adviser or its affiliates that relate to the operations of the Company, may be

billed monthly to the Company under a shared services agreement. “Offering Expenses” include all expenses (other than underwriters’ discounts) in connection with an offering, including, without limitation, legal, accounting, printing, mailing and filing fees and other documented offering expenses. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Adviser did not bill any Operating Expenses or Offering Expenses to the Company and any such expenses the Adviser incurred during the periods are considered to be permanently waived.

Expense Cap

Pursuant to the terms of the Advisory Agreement, expenses paid or incurred by the Company for advisory and administrative fees payable to the Adviser and Operating Expenses will not exceed 1.5% of Average Real Estate Assets per calendar year (or part thereof that the Advisory Agreement is in effect (the “Expense Cap”)). The Expense Cap does not limit the reimbursement of expenses related to Offering Expenses. The Expense Cap also does not apply to legal, accounting, financial, due diligence and other service fees incurred in connection with mergers and acquisitions, extraordinary litigation or other events outside the Company’s ordinary course of business or any out-of-pocket acquisitions or due diligence expenses incurred in connection with the acquisition or disposition of real estate assets. Also, advisory and administrative fees are further limited on Contributed Assets to approximately $5.4 million in any calendar year. Contributed Assets refers to all Real Estate Assets contributed to the Company as part of its spin-off. The Contributed Assets Cap is not reduced for dispositions of such assets subsequent to its spin-off. Advisory and administrative fees on New Assets are not subject to the above limitation and are based on an annual rate of 1.2% on Average Real Estate Assets, but are subject to the Expense Cap. New Assets are all Real Estate Assets that are not Contributed Assets.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred advisory and administrative fees of $1.9 million and $1.9 million, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Adviser elected to voluntarily waive the advisory and administrative fees of $4.1 million and $3.8 million, respectively, and are considered to be permanently waived. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred advisory and administrative fees of $3.8 million and $3.8 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Adviser elected to voluntarily waive the advisory and administrative fees of $8.1 million and $7.7 million, respectively, and are considered to be permanently waived. The Adviser is not contractually obligated to waive fees on New Assets in the future and may cease waiving fees on New Assets at its discretion.

Other Related Party Transactions

The Company has in the past, and may in the future, utilize the services of affiliated parties. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company paid approximately $0.0 million and $0.1 million, respectively, to NexBank Title, Inc. (“NexBank Title”). NexBank Title is an affiliate of the Adviser through common beneficial ownership. NexBank Title provides title insurance and work related to providing title insurance on properties related to acquisitions, dispositions and refinancing transactions. These amounts are either capitalized as real estate assets or deferred financing costs, expensed as loss on extinguishment of debt and modification costs, or expensed as selling costs when determining gain (loss) on sales of real estate, depending on the appropriate accounting as determined for each specific transaction.

12. Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into various rehabilitation construction related purchase commitments with parties that provide these goods and services. In the event the Company were to terminate rehabilitation construction services prior to the completion of projects, the Company could potentially be committed to satisfy outstanding or uncompleted purchase orders with such parties. As of June 30, 2021, management does not anticipate any material deviations from schedule or budget related to rehabilitation projects currently in process.

Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to claims, lawsuits, and legal proceedings. While it is not possible to ascertain the ultimate outcome of all such matters, management believes that the aggregate amount of such liabilities, if any, in excess of amounts provided or covered by insurance, will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated balance sheets or consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) of the Company. The Company is not involved in any material litigation nor, to management’s knowledge, is any material litigation currently threatened against the Company or its properties or subsidiaries.

Environmental liabilities could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, assets, cash flows or results of operations. There can be no assurance that material environmental liabilities do not exist.

Self-Insurance Program

Effective March 1, 2019, the Company maintains a partial self-insurance program for property and casualty claims whereby it incurs the “first-loss” portion of a claim up to an aggregate loss amount. Claims resulting in losses in excess of a $100,000 per occurrence property deductible will be paid by the Company up to an aggregate amount of $1.2 million (the “2019 Aggregate Amount”). For the period from March 1, 2019 to February 29, 2020, the Company incurred a claim related to Cutter’s Point (see Note 5) as part of the 2019 Aggregate Amount. The claim related to Cutter’s Point required the Company to fund the full 2019 Aggregate Amount with $0.6 million being funded in December 2019 and the remaining $0.6 million funded during the three months ended March 31, 2020. For the period from March 1, 2019 to February 29, 2020, there were no other potential claims, besides the claim involving Cutter’s Point, that met the criteria as set forth under ASC 450-20.

On March 1, 2020, the Adviser entered into a new policy resulting in a new aggregate amount of $2,365,000 (the “2020 Aggregate Amount”) which is allocated across properties managed by the Adviser with approximately $1.5 million being allocated to the Company. As of December 30, 2020, all of the $1.5 million of the 2020 Aggregate Amount allocated to the Company has been funded. Under ASC 450-20 “Loss Contingencies”, the Company does not reserve for the 2020 Aggregate Amount or any portion thereof until a claim is made and the amount of the claim and the timing of payment on the claim can be reasonably estimated. For the period from March 1, 2020 to February 28, 2021, the Company fully funded the 2020 Aggregate for claims related to Venue 8651 and Timber Creek (see Note 5).

On March 1, 2021, the Adviser entered into a new policy resulting in a new aggregate amount of $2,468,750 (the “2021 Aggregate Amount”) which is allocated across properties managed by the Adviser with approximately $1.6 million being allocated to the Company. As of June 30, 2021, all of the $1.6 million of the 2021 Aggregate Amount allocated to the Company has been funded. Under ASC 450-20 “Loss Contingencies”, the Company does not reserve for the 2021 Aggregate Amount or any portion thereof until a claim is made and the amount of the claim and the timing of payment on the claim can be reasonably estimated. For the period from March 1, 2021 to June 30, 2021, the Company did not fund any claims under the 2021 Aggregate Amount

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following is a discussion and analysis of our financial condition and our historical results of operations. The following should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and accompanying notes. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those projected, forecasted, or expected in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including, but not limited to, those discussed below and elsewhere in this quarterly report. See “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in this report, and “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our annual report on Form 10-K (our “Annual Report”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 22, 2021.

Overview

As of June 30, 2021, our Portfolio consisted of 39 multifamily properties primarily located in the Southeastern and Southwestern United States encompassing 14,709 units of apartment space that was approximately 96.1% leased with a weighted average monthly effective rent per occupied apartment unit of $1,159. Substantially all of our business is conducted through the OP. We own the Portfolio through the OP and our TRS. The OP owns approximately 99.9% of the Portfolio; our TRS owns approximately 0.1% of the Portfolio. The OP GP is the sole general partner of the OP. As of June 30, 2021, there were 23,819,402 OP Units outstanding, of which 23,746,169, or 99.7%, were owned by us and 73,233, or 0.3%, were owned by an unaffiliated limited partner (see Note 10 to our consolidated financial statements).

We are primarily focused on directly or indirectly acquiring, owning, and operating well-located multifamily properties with a value-add component in large cities and suburban submarkets of large cities, primarily in the Southeastern and Southwestern United States. We generate revenue primarily by leasing our multifamily properties. We intend to employ targeted management and a value-add program at a majority of our properties in an attempt to improve rental rates and the net operating income (“NOI”) at our properties and achieve long-term capital appreciation for our stockholders. We are externally managed by the Adviser through the Advisory Agreement, by and among the OP, the Adviser and us. The Advisory Agreement was renewed on February 15, 2021 for a one-year term. The Adviser is wholly owned by NexPoint Advisors, L.P.

On March 4, 2020, the Company, the OP and the Adviser entered into separate equity distribution agreements with each of Jefferies, Raymond James, KeyBanc and Truist, pursuant to which the Company may issue and sell from time-to-time shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, having an aggregate sales price of up to $225,000,000. Sales of shares of common stock, if any, may be made in transactions that are deemed to be “at the market” offerings, as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act, including, without limitation, sales made by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions on the New York Stock Exchange, to or through a market maker at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices based on prevailing market prices. In addition to the issuance and sale of shares of common stock, the Company may enter into forward sale agreements with each of Jefferies, KeyBanc and Raymond James, or their respective affiliates, through the 2020 ATM Program. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, no shares were issued under the 2020 ATM Program. The 2020 ATM Program may be terminated by the Company at any time and expires automatically once aggregate sales under the 2020 ATM Program reach $225,000,000 (see Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements).

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code, and expect to continue to qualify as a REIT. To qualify as a REIT, we must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that we distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income to our stockholders. As a REIT, we will be subject to federal income tax on our undistributed REIT taxable income and net capital gain and to a 4% nondeductible excise tax on any amount by which distributions we pay with respect to any calendar year are less than the sum of (1) 85% of our ordinary income, (2) 95% of our capital gain net income and (3) 100% of our undistributed income from prior years. We believe we qualify for taxation as a REIT under the Code, and we intend to continue to operate in such a manner, but no assurance can be given that we will operate in a manner so as to qualify as a REIT. Taxable income from certain non-REIT activities is managed through a TRS and is subject to applicable federal, state, and local income and margin taxes. We had no significant taxes associated with our TRS for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

For information on the effects the COVID-19 pandemic has had on our business, see Note 2 “Coronavirus (‘COVID-19’)” to our consolidated financial statements.

Components of Our Revenues and Expenses

Revenues

Rental income. Our earnings are primarily attributable to the rental revenue from our multifamily properties. We anticipate that the leases we enter into for our multifamily properties will typically be for one year or less on average. Also included are utility reimbursements, late fees, pet fees, and other rental fees charged to tenants.

Other income. Other income includes ancillary income earned from tenants such as non-refundable fees, application fees, laundry fees, cable TV income, and other miscellaneous fees charged to tenants.

Expenses

Property operating expenses. Property operating expenses include property maintenance costs, salary and employee benefit costs, utilities, casualty-related expenses and recoveries and other property operating costs.

Real estate taxes and insurance. Real estate taxes include the property taxes assessed by local and state authorities depending on the location of each property. Insurance includes the cost of commercial, general liability, and other needed insurance for each property.

Property management fees. Property management fees include fees paid to BH, our property manager, or other third party management companies for managing each property (see Note 10 to our consolidated financial statements).

Advisory and administrative fees. Advisory and administrative fees include the fees paid to our Adviser pursuant to the Advisory Agreement (see Note 11 to our consolidated financial statements).

Corporate general and administrative expenses. Corporate general and administrative expenses include, but are not limited to, audit fees, legal fees, listing fees, board of director fees, equity-based compensation expense, investor relations costs and payments of reimbursements to our Adviser for operating expenses. Corporate general and administrative expenses and the advisory and administrative fees paid to our Adviser (including advisory and administrative fees on properties defined in the Advisory Agreement as New Assets) will not exceed 1.5% of Average Real Estate Assets per calendar year (or part thereof that the Advisory Agreement is in effect), calculated in accordance with the Advisory Agreement (the “Expense Cap”). The Expense Cap does not limit the reimbursement by us of expenses related to securities offerings paid by our Adviser. The Expense Cap also does not apply to legal, accounting, financial, due diligence, and other service fees incurred in connection with mergers and acquisitions, extraordinary litigation, or other events outside our ordinary course of business or any out-of-pocket acquisition or due diligence expenses incurred in connection with the acquisition or disposition of real estate assets. Additionally, in the sole discretion of the Adviser, the Adviser may elect to waive certain advisory and administrative fees otherwise due. If advisory and administrative fees are waived in a period, the waived fees for that period are considered to be waived permanently and the Adviser may not be reimbursed in the future.

Property general and administrative expenses. Property general and administrative expenses include the costs of marketing, professional fees, general office supplies, and other administrative related costs of each property.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization costs primarily include depreciation of our multifamily properties and amortization of acquired in-place leases.

Other Income and Expense

Interest expense. Interest expense primarily includes the cost of interest expense on debt, the amortization of deferred financing costs and the related impact of interest rate derivatives used to manage our interest rate risk.

Loss on extinguishment of debt and modification costs. Loss on extinguishment of debt and modification costs includes prepayment penalties and defeasance costs, the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs and fair market value adjustments of assumed debt related to the early repayment of debt, costs incurred in a debt modification that are not capitalized as deferred financing costs and other costs incurred in a debt extinguishment.

Casualty losses. Casualty losses include expenses resulting from damages from an unexpected and unusual event such as a natural disaster. Expenses can include additional payments on insurance premiums, impairment recognized on a property, and other abnormal expenses arising from the related event.

Miscellaneous income. Miscellaneous income includes proceeds received from insurance for business interruption involving the loss of rental income at a property that has temporarily suspended operations due to an unexpected and unusual event.

Gain on sales of real estate. Gain on sales of real estate includes the gain recognized upon sales of properties. Gain on sales of real estate is calculated by deducting the carrying value of the real estate and costs incurred to sell the properties from the sales prices of the properties.

Results of Operations for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

The three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020

The following table sets forth a summary of our operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands):

	For the Three Months Ended June 30,
	2021			2020			$ Change
Total revenues	$	52,563		$	50,681		$	1,882
Total expenses		(47,821	)		(49,025	)		1,204
Operating income before gain on sales of real estate		4,742			1,656			3,086
Gain on sales of real estate		—			19			(19	)
Miscellaneous income		472			1,079			(607	)
Operating income		5,214			2,754			2,460
Interest expense		(10,683	)		(10,993	)		310
Casualty gain (loss)		2,379			(1,079	)		3,458
Loss on extinguishment of debt and modification costs		(328	)		—			(328	)
Net loss		(3,418	)		(9,318	)		5,900
Net loss attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership		(10	)		(28	)		18
Net loss attributable to common stockholders	$	(3,408	)	$	(9,290	)	$	5,882

The change in our net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to our net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2020 primarily relates to increases in casualty gain and total revenues, partially offset by a decrease in miscellaneous income.

Revenues

Rental income. Rental income was $51.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $49.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, which was an increase of approximately $1.7 million. The increase between the periods was primarily due to a 4.5% increase in the weighted average monthly effective rent per occupied apartment unit in our Portfolio to $1,159 as of June 30, 2021 from $1,109 as of June 30, 2020. The increase in effective rent was primarily driven by the value-add program that we have implemented and organic growth in rents.

Other income. Other income was $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, which was an increase of approximately $0.1 million. The increase between the periods was primarily due to an increase in application fee income of approximately $0.1 million.

Expenses

Property operating expenses. Property operating expenses was $11.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $12.0, which was a decrease of approximately $0.8 million. The decrease between periods was primarily due to a $0.3 million decrease in pandemic expense.

Real estate taxes and insurance. Real estate taxes and insurance costs were $8.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $7.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, which was an increase of approximately $0.7 million. The increase between the periods was primarily due to our acquisition and disposition activity in 2020 and 2019 and the timing of the transactions. The increase between the periods was also due to a $0.8 million, or 12.1%, increase in property taxes. Property taxes incurred in the first year of ownership may be significantly less than subsequent years since the purchase price of the property may trigger a significant increase in assessed value by the taxing authority in subsequent years, increasing the costs of real estate taxes. Additionally, we have seen and expect state and local municipalities to make up budget shortfalls due to the COVID-19 pandemic through increased taxation. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, we experienced property value increases.

Property management fees. Property management fees remained flat at $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. Property management fees are primarily based on total revenues.

Advisory and administrative fees. Advisory and administrative fees were $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, our Adviser elected to voluntarily waive the advisory and administrative fees of approximately $4.1 million and $3.8 million. Our Adviser is not contractually obligated to waive fees on New Assets in the future and may cease waiving fees on New Assets at its discretion. Advisory and administrative fees may increase in future periods as we acquire additional properties, which will be classified as New Assets.

Corporate general and administrative expenses. Corporate general and administrative expenses were $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $2.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, which was an increase of approximately $0.1 million. The increase between the periods was primarily due to an increase of $0.1 million in professional fees.

Property general and administrative expenses. Property general and administrative expenses were $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, which was an increase of approximately $0.3 million. The increase between the periods was primarily due to a $0.1 million increase in eviction fee expense and a $0.1 million increase property tax appeal expense.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization costs were $20.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $21.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, which was a decrease of approximately $1.4 million. The decrease between the periods was primarily due to a decrease of $1.1 million in amortization of intangible lease assets and a decrease in depreciation expense of approximately $0.3 million, which was primarily due to our acquisition activity in 2021 and 2020 and the timing of the transactions. The amortization of intangible lease assets over a six-month period from the date of acquisition is expected to increase the amortization expense during the initial year of operations for each property.

Other Income and Expense

Interest expense. Interest expense was $10.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $11.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, which was a decrease of approximately $0.3 million. The decrease between the periods was primarily due to a decrease in interest on debt of approximately $1.3 million, partially offset by an increase in interest rate swap expense of approximately $1.1 million. The following table details the various costs included in interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands):

	For the Three Months Ended June 30,
	2021		2020		$ Change
Interest on debt	$	6,388	$	7,673	$	(1,285	)
Amortization of deferred financing costs		495		702		(207	)

Interest rate caps expense		55		13		42
Total	$	10,683	$	10,993	$	(310	)

The six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020

The following table sets forth a summary of our operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands):

Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders	$	(10,287	)	$	18,665		$	(28,952	)

The change in our net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the net income for the six months ended June 30, 2020 primarily relates to a decrease in gain on sales of real estate, partially offset by increases in casualty gain and total revenues and a decrease in total expenses.

Revenues

Rental income. Rental income was $101.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $100.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, which was an increase of approximately $1.0 million. The increase between the periods was primarily due to a 4.5% increase in the weighted average monthly effective rent per occupied apartment unit in our Portfolio to $1,159 as of June 30, 2021 from $1,109 as of June 30, 2020. The increase in effective rent was primarily driven by the value-add program that we have implemented and organic growth in rents in the markets where our properties are located.

Other income. Other income was $3.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, which was an increase of approximately $0.1 million. The increase between the periods was primarily due to a $0.1 million increase in application fee income.

Expenses

Property operating expenses. Property operating expenses were $22.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $23.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, which was a decrease of approximately $1.3 million. The decrease between the periods was primarily due to our acquisition and disposition activity in 2021 and 2020 and the timing of the transactions. The decrease between the periods was also due to a $0.1 million decrease in water and sewer expense and a $0.2 million decrease in pandemic expense which represents additional cleaning, disinfecting and other costs incurred at the properties related to COVID-19.

Real estate taxes and insurance. Real estate taxes and insurance costs were $17.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $15.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, which was an increase of approximately $1.4 million. The increase between the periods was primarily due to a $1.4 million, or 9.9%, increase in property taxes. Property taxes incurred in the first year of ownership may be significantly less than subsequent years since the purchase price of the property may trigger a significant increase in assessed value by the taxing authority in subsequent years, increasing the cost of real estate taxes. Additionally, we have seen and expect state and local municipalities to make up budget shortfalls due to the COVID-19 pandemic through increased taxation. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we experienced property value increases.

Property management fees. Property management fees remained flat at $3.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. Property management fees are primarily based on total revenues.

Advisory and administrative fees. Advisory and administrative fees remained flat at $3.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and $3.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, our Adviser elected to voluntarily waive the advisory and administrative fees of approximately $8.1 million and $7.7 million. Our Adviser is not contractually obligated to waive fees on New Assets in the future and may cease waiving fees on New Assets at its discretion. Advisory and administrative fees may increase in future periods as we acquire additional properties, which will be classified as New Assets.

Corporate general and administrative expenses. Corporate general and administrative expenses were $5.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $5.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, which was an increase of approximately $0.3 million. The increase was primarily due to an increase in stock compensation expense of $0.8 million, partially offset by a decrease in audit fees of $0.1 million and accounting fees of $0.1 million.

Property general and administrative expenses. Property general and administrative expenses were $3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $3.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, which was a decrease of approximately $0.1 million. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in other entity expenses of $0.1 million.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization costs were $40.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $44.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, which was a decrease of approximately $4.1 million. The decrease between the periods was primarily due a decrease in amortization of intangible lease assets of $5.1 million, partially offset by an increase of $1.1 million in depreciation expense, which was primarily due to our acquisition activity in 2021 and 2020 and the timing of the transactions. The amortization of intangible lease assets over a six-month period from the date of acquisition is expected to increase the amortization expense during the initial year of operations for each property.

Other Income and Expense

Interest expense. Interest expense was $21.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $22.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, which was a decrease of approximately $1.4 million. The decrease between the periods was primarily due a decrease in interest on debt of $6.5 million, partially offset by an increase in interest rate swap expense of approximately $5.4 million. The following table details the various costs included in interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands):

	For the Six Months Ended June 30,

Loss on extinguishment of debt and modification costs. There was a $0.3 million loss on extinguishment of debt and modification costs for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to a $0.9 million loss for the six months ended June 30, 2020, which was a decrease of approximately $0.6 million. The decrease between the periods was primarily due to a decrease in prepayment penalties and defeasance costs of approximately $0.4 million and a decrease in write-off of deferred financing costs of approximately $0.1 million. The following table details the various costs included in loss on extinguishment of debt and modification costs for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands):

The decrease between the periods was primarily due to our acquisition and disposition activity in 2021 and 2020 and the timing of the transactions.

Non-GAAP Measurements

Net Operating Income and Same Store Net Operating Income

NOI is used by investors and our management to evaluate and compare the performance of our properties to other comparable properties, to determine trends in earnings and to compute the fair value of our properties. NOI is calculated by adjusting net income (loss) to add back (1) interest expense (2) advisory and administrative fees, (3) the impact of depreciation and amortization expenses as well as gains or losses from the sale of operating real estate assets that are included in net income computed in accordance with GAAP, (4) corporate general and administrative expenses, (5) other gains and losses that are specific to us including loss on extinguishment of debt and modification costs, (6) casualty-related expenses/(recoveries) and casualty gains (losses), (7) pandemic expenses that are not reflective of continuing operations of the properties and (8) property general and administrative expenses that are not reflective of the continuing operations of the properties or are incurred on behalf of the Company at the property for expenses such as legal, professional and franchise tax fees.

The cost of funds is eliminated from net income (loss) because it is specific to our particular financing capabilities and constraints. The cost of funds is also eliminated because it is dependent on historical interest rates and other costs of capital as well as past decisions made by us regarding the appropriate mix of capital, which may have changed or may change in the future. Non-operating fees to affiliates are eliminated because they do not reflect continuing operating costs of the property owner. Depreciation and amortization expenses as well as gains or losses from the sale of operating real estate assets are eliminated because they may not accurately represent the actual change in value in our multifamily properties that result from use of the properties or changes in market conditions. While certain aspects of real property do decline in value over time in a manner that is reasonably captured by depreciation and amortization, the value of the properties as a whole have historically increased or decreased as a result of changes in overall economic conditions instead of from actual use of the property or the passage of time. Gains and losses from the sale of real property vary from property to property and are affected by market conditions at the time of sale, which will usually change from period to period. Casualty-related expenses and recoveries, casualty gains and losses, and losses of extinguished debt and modification costs are excluded because they do not reflect continuing operating costs of the property owner. Corporate level general and administrative expenses are eliminated because they do not reflect the operating activity performed at the properties. Entity level general and administrative expenses incurred at the properties and pandemic expenses are eliminated as they are specific to the way in which we

have chosen to hold our properties and are the result of our ownership structuring. Also, expenses that are incurred upon acquisition of a property do not reflect continuing operating costs of the property owner. These gains and losses can create distortions when comparing one period to another or when comparing our operating results to the operating results of other real estate companies that have not made similarly timed purchases or sales. We believe that eliminating these items from net income is useful because the resulting measure captures the actual ongoing revenue generated and actual expenses incurred in operating our properties as well as trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs.

However, the usefulness of NOI is limited because it excludes corporate general and administrative expenses, interest expense, loss on extinguishment of debt and modification costs, acquisition costs, certain fees to affiliates such as advisory and administrative fees, depreciation and amortization expense and gains or losses from the sale of properties, pandemic expenses, and other gains and losses as determined under GAAP, the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which are significant economic costs. NOI may fail to capture significant trends in these components of net income, which further limits its usefulness.

NOI is a measure of the operating performance of our properties but does not measure our performance as a whole. NOI is therefore not a substitute for net income (loss) as computed in accordance with GAAP. This measure should be analyzed in conjunction with net income (loss) computed in accordance with GAAP and discussions elsewhere in “—Results of Operations” regarding the components of net income (loss) that are eliminated in the calculation of NOI. Other companies may use different methods for calculating NOI or similarly entitled measures and, accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to similarly entitled measures reported by other companies that do not define the measure exactly as we do.

We define “Same Store NOI” as NOI for our properties that are comparable between periods. We view Same Store NOI as an important measure of the operating performance of our properties because it allows us to compare operating results of properties owned for the entirety of the current and comparable periods and therefore eliminates variations caused by acquisitions or dispositions during the periods.

FFO, Core FFO and AFFO

We believe that net income, as defined by GAAP, is the most appropriate earnings measure. We also believe that funds from operations (“FFO”), as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), core funds from operations (“Core FFO”) and adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”) are important non-GAAP supplemental measures of operating performance for a REIT.

Since the historical cost accounting convention used for real estate assets requires depreciation except on land, such accounting presentation implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. However, since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market and other conditions, presentations of operating results for a REIT that use historical cost accounting for depreciation could be less informative. Thus, NAREIT created FFO as a supplemental measure of operating performance for REITs that excludes historical cost depreciation and amortization, among other items, from net income, as defined by GAAP. FFO is defined by NAREIT as net income computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from real estate dispositions, plus real estate depreciation and amortization. We compute FFO attributable to common stockholders in accordance with NAREIT’s definition. Our presentation differs slightly in that we begin with net income (loss) before adjusting for amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests and we show the combined amounts attributable to such noncontrolling interests as an adjustment to arrive at FFO attributable to common stockholders.

Core FFO makes certain adjustments to FFO, which are either not likely to occur on a regular basis or are otherwise not representative of the ongoing operating performance of our portfolio. Core FFO adjusts FFO to remove items such as losses on extinguishment of debt and modification costs (including prepayment penalties and defeasance costs incurred on the early repayment of debt, the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs and fair market value adjustments of assumed debt related to the early repayment of debt, costs incurred in a debt modification that are not capitalized as deferred financing costs and other costs incurred in a debt extinguishment), casualty-related expenses and recoveries and gains or losses, pandemic expenses, the amortization of deferred financing costs incurred in connection with obtaining short-term debt financing, and the noncontrolling interests (as described above) related to these items. We believe Core FFO is useful to investors as a supplemental gauge of our operating performance and is useful in comparing our operating performance with other REITs that are not as involved in the aforementioned activities.

AFFO makes certain adjustments to Core FFO in order to arrive at a more refined measure of the operating performance of our Portfolio. There is no industry standard definition of AFFO and practice is divergent across the industry. AFFO adjusts Core FFO to remove items such as equity-based compensation expense and the amortization of deferred financing costs incurred in connection with obtaining long-term debt financing, and the noncontrolling interests (as described above) related to these items. We believe AFFO is useful to investors as a supplemental gauge of our operating performance and is useful in comparing our operating performance with other REITs that are not as involved in the aforementioned activities.

The effect of the conversion of OP Units held by noncontrolling limited partners is not reflected in the computation of basic and diluted FFO, Core FFO and AFFO per share, as they are exchangeable for common stock on a one-for-one basis. The FFO, Core FFO and AFFO allocable to such units is allocated on this same basis and reflected in the adjustments for noncontrolling interests in the table below. As such, the assumed conversion of these units would have no net impact on the determination of diluted FFO, Core FFO and AFFO per share. See Note 10 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information.

We believe that the use of FFO, Core FFO and AFFO, combined with the required GAAP presentations, improves the understanding of operating results of REITs among investors and makes comparisons of operating results among such companies more meaningful. While FFO, Core FFO and AFFO are relevant and widely used measures of operating performance of REITs, they do not represent cash flows from operations or net income (loss) as defined by GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative or substitute to those measures in evaluating our liquidity or operating performance. FFO, Core FFO and AFFO do not purport to be indicative of cash available to fund our future cash requirements. Further, our computation of FFO, Core FFO and AFFO may not be comparable to FFO, Core FFO and AFFO reported by other REITs that do not define FFO in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition or define Core FFO or AFFO differently than we do.

The following table reconciles our calculations of FFO, Core FFO and AFFO to net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands, except per share amounts):

FFO was $16.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $12.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, which was an increase of approximately $4.5 million. The change in our FFO between the periods primarily relates to an increase in total revenues of $1.9 million.

Core FFO was $14.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $14.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, which was a decrease of approximately $0.3 million. The change in our Core FFO between the periods primarily relates to increases in casualty gains of $3.5 million and casualty-related recoveries of $1.2 million, partially offset by an increase in FFO.

AFFO was $16.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $16.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, which was an increase of approximately $0.2 million. The change in our AFFO between the periods primarily relates to an increase in equity-based compensation expense of $0.5 million, partially offset by a decrease in Core FFO.

The six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020

FFO was $30.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $24.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, which was an increase of approximately $5.9 million. The change in our FFO between the periods primarily relates to an increase in total revenues of $1.1 million.

Core FFO was $28.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $28.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, which was an increase of approximately $0.2 million. The change in our Core FFO between the periods primarily relates to an increase in FFO, partially offset by an increase in casualty gains of approximately $3.4 million.

AFFO was $32.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $31.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, which was an increase of approximately $1.0 million. The change in our AFFO between the periods primarily relates to an increase in Core FFO and an increase of equity-based compensation expense of $0.8 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for debt maturities, operating expenses and other expenditures directly associated with our multifamily properties, including:

•

capital expenditures to continue our value-add program and to improve the quality and performance of our multifamily properties;

•

interest expense and scheduled principal payments on outstanding indebtedness (see “—Obligations and Commitments” below);

•

recurring maintenance necessary to maintain our multifamily properties;

•

distributions necessary to qualify for taxation as a REIT;

•

acquisitions of additional properties;

•

advisory and administrative fees payable to our Adviser;

•

general and administrative expenses;

•

reimbursements to our Adviser; and

•

property management fees payable to BH.

We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements generally through net cash provided by operations and existing cash balances. As of June 30, 2021, we had approximately $9.3 million of renovation value-add reserves for our planned capital expenditures to implement our value-add program. Renovation value-add reserves are not required to be held in escrow by a third party. We may reallocate these funds, at our discretion, to pursue other investment opportunities or meet our short-term liquidity requirements.

Our long-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for the costs of acquiring additional multifamily properties, renovations and other capital expenditures to improve our multifamily properties and scheduled debt payments and distributions. We expect to meet our long-term liquidity requirements through various sources of capital, which may include a revolving credit facility and future debt or equity issuances, existing working capital, net cash provided by operations, long-term mortgage indebtedness and other secured and unsecured borrowings, and property dispositions. However, there are a number of factors that may have a material adverse effect on our ability to access these capital sources, including the state of overall equity and credit markets, our degree of leverage, our unencumbered asset base and borrowing restrictions imposed by lenders (including as a result of any failure to comply with financial covenants in our existing and future indebtedness), general market conditions for REITs,

our operating performance and liquidity, market perceptions about us and restrictions on sales of properties under the Code. The Company continues to monitor the impact on COVID-19 and its impact on future rent collections, valuation of real estate investments, impact on cash flow and ability to refinance or repay debt. The success of our business strategy will depend, in part, on our ability to access these various capital sources.

In addition to our value-add program, our multifamily properties will require periodic capital expenditures and renovation to remain competitive. Also, acquisitions, redevelopments, or expansions of our multifamily properties will require significant capital outlays. Long-term, we may not be able to fund such capital improvements solely from net cash provided by operations because we must distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the deductions for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains, to qualify and maintain our qualification as a REIT, and we are subject to tax on any retained income and gains. As a result, our ability to fund capital expenditures, acquisitions, or redevelopment through retained earnings long-term is limited. Consequently, we expect to rely heavily upon the availability of debt or equity capital for these purposes. If we are unable to obtain the necessary capital on favorable terms, or at all, our financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, and prospects could be materially and adversely affected.

On February 20, 2019, the Company, the OP and the Adviser entered into separate equity distribution agreements with each of Jefferies, Raymond James and Truist (collectively, the “2019 ATM Sales Agents”), pursuant to which the Company could issue and sell from time to time shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, having an aggregate sales price of up to $100,000,000 (the “2019 ATM Program”). Sales of shares of common stock, if any, could be made in transactions that are deemed to be “at the market” offerings, as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act, including, without limitation, sales made by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions on the New York Stock Exchange, to or through a market maker at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices based on prevailing market prices. In addition to the issuance and sale of shares of common stock, the Company could enter into forward sale agreements with each of Jefferies and Raymond James, or their respective affiliates, through the 2019 ATM Program. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company issued 560,000 shares of common stock at an average price of $50.00 per share for gross proceeds of $28.0 million under the 2019 ATM Program. The Company paid approximately $0.4 million in fees to the 2019 ATM Sales Agents with respect to such sales and incurred other issuance costs of approximately $0.4 million, both of which were netted against the gross proceeds and recorded in additional paid in capital. On February 27, 2020, the 2019 ATM Program reached aggregate sales of $100,000,000 and therefore expired.

On March 4, 2020, the Company, the OP and the Adviser entered into separate equity distribution agreements with each of Jefferies, Raymond James, KeyBanc and Truist pursuant to which the Company may issue and sell from time to time shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, having an aggregate sales price of up to $225,000,000. Sales of shares of common stock, if any, may be made in transactions that are deemed to be “at the market” offerings, as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act, including, without limitation, sales made by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions on the New York Stock Exchange, to or through a market maker at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices based on prevailing market prices. In addition to the issuance and sale of shares of common stock, the Company may enter into forward sale agreements with each of Jefferies, KeyBanc and Raymond James, or their respective affiliates, through the 2020 ATM Program. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company issued 718,306 shares of common stock at an average price of $43.92 per share for gross proceeds of $31.5 million under the 2020 ATM Program. The Company paid approximately $0.5 million in fees to the 2020 ATM Sales Agents with respect to such sales and incurred other issuance costs of approximately $0.6 million, both of which were netted against the gross proceeds and recorded in additional paid in capital. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, no shares were issued under the 2020 ATM Program. The 2020 ATM Program may be terminated by the Company at any time and expires automatically once aggregate sales under the 2020 ATM Program reach $225,000,000 (see Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements).

We believe that our available cash, expected operating cash flows, and potential debt or equity financings will provide sufficient funds for our operations, anticipated scheduled debt service payments and dividend requirements for the twelve-month period following June 30, 2021.

Cash Flows

The following table presents selected data from our consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands):

	For the Six Months Ended June 30,
	2021			2020
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	30,950		$	25,931
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities		(139,764	)		58,621
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities		112,026			(70,715	)
Net increase (decrease) in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash		3,212			13,837
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, beginning of period		57,015			71,182
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, end of period	$	60,227		$	85,019

Cash flows from operating activities. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, net cash provided by operating activities was $31.0 million compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $25.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The change in cash flows from operating activities was mainly due to an increase in total revenues and a decrease in property operating expenses.

Cash flows from investing activities. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, net cash used in investing activities was $139.8 million compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $58.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The change in cash flows from investing activities was mainly due to our acquisition and disposition activity in 2021 and 2020 and the timing of the transactions.

Cash flows from financing activities. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, net cash provided by financing activities was $112.0 million compared to net cash used in financing activities of $70.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The change in cash flows from financing activities was mainly due to a net increase in debt of approximately $168.5 million, a decrease in common stock repurchases of approximately $44.5 million, partially offset by a decrease in proceeds from the issuance of common stock of approximately $27.4 million (net of Sales Agents fees and other legal fees) between the periods.

Debt, Derivatives and Hedging Activity

Mortgage Debt

As of June 30, 2021, our subsidiaries had aggregate mortgage debt outstanding to third parties of approximately $1.2 billion at a weighted average interest rate of 1.79% and an adjusted weighted average interest rate of 2.97%. For purposes of calculating the adjusted weighted average interest rate of our mortgage debt outstanding, we have included the weighted average fixed rate of 1.3461% for one-month LIBOR on our combined $1.2 billion notional amount of interest rate swap agreements, which effectively fix the interest rate on $1.2 billion of our floating rate mortgage debt. See Notes 6 and 7 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information.

We have entered into and expect to continue to enter into interest rate swap and cap agreements with various third parties to fix or cap the floating interest rates on a majority of our floating rate mortgage debt outstanding. The interest rate swap agreements generally have a term of four to five years and effectively establish a fixed interest rate on debt on the underlying notional amounts. The interest rate swap agreements involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for us making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. As of June 30, 2021, interest rate swap agreements effectively covered 100% of our $1.2 billion of floating rate mortgage debt outstanding.

The interest rate cap agreements generally have a term of three to four years, cover the outstanding principal amount of the underlying debt and are generally required by our lenders. Under the interest rate cap agreements, we pay a fixed fee in exchange for the counterparty to pay any interest above a maximum rate. As of June 30, 2021, interest rate cap agreements covered $428.8 million of our $1.2 billion of floating rate mortgage debt outstanding. These interest rate cap agreements effectively cap one-month LIBOR on $428.8 million of our floating rate mortgage debt at a weighted average rate of 5.28%.

We intend to invest in additional multifamily properties as suitable opportunities arise and adequate sources of equity and debt financing are available. We expect that future investments in properties, including any improvements or renovations of current or newly acquired properties, will depend on and will be financed by, in whole or in part, our existing cash, future borrowings and the proceeds from additional issuances of common stock or other securities or property dispositions.

Although we expect to be subject to restrictions on our ability to incur indebtedness, we expect that we will be able to refinance existing indebtedness or incur additional indebtedness for acquisitions or other purposes, if needed. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to refinance our indebtedness, incur additional indebtedness or access additional sources of capital, such as by issuing common stock or other debt or equity securities, on terms that are acceptable to us or at all.

Furthermore, following the completion of our value-add and capital expenditures programs and depending on the interest rate environment at the applicable time, we may seek to refinance our floating rate debt into longer-term fixed rate debt at lower leverage levels.

Corporate Credit Facility

On June 30, 2021, we through our OP entered into a secured $250.0 million revolving and term credit facility with Truist, as administrative agent, and the lenders from time-to-time party thereto (the “Corporate Credit Facility”). Subject to conditions provided in the Corporate Credit Facility, the Corporate Credit Facility may be increased up to an additional $100.0 million at the Company’s option if the lenders agree to increase their commitments. The Corporate Credit Facility will mature on June 30, 2024, unless the Company exercises its option to voluntarily and permanently reduce all of the commitments before the maturity date or elects to exercise its right and option to extend the facility for a one-year term. As of June 30, 2021, there was $250.0 million in aggregate principal outstanding on the Corporate Credit Facility. Additionally, on June 30, 2021, in connection with entering into the Corporate Credit Facility, the Company, through the OP, terminated its $225.0 million revolving credit facility with Truist, as administrative agent, and the lenders from party thereto.

Advances under the Corporate Credit Facility accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to, at the Company’s election, either LIBOR plus a margin of 1.90% to 2.40%, depending on the Company’s total leverage ratio, or a base rate determined according to the highest of (a) the prime rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (c) LIBOR plus 1.0% or (d) 0.0% plus a margin of 0.90% to 1.40%, depending on the Company’s total leverage ratio. An unused commitment fee at a rate of 0.15% or 0.25%, depending on the outstanding aggregate revolving commitments, applies to unutilized borrowing capacity under the Corporate Credit Facility. Amounts owing under the Corporate Credit Facility may be prepaid at any time without premium or penalty. The Corporate Credit Facility is guaranteed by the Company and the obligations under the Corporate Credit Facility are, subject to some exceptions, secured by a continuing security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company.

Interest Rate Swap Agreements

In order to fix a portion of, and mitigate the risk associated with, our floating rate indebtedness (without incurring substantial prepayment penalties or defeasance costs typically associated with fixed rate indebtedness when repaid early or refinanced), we, through the OP, have entered into nine interest rate swap transactions with KeyBank and two with Truist (collectively the “Counterparties”) with a combined notional amount of $1.2 billion which are effective as of June 30, 2021. As of June 30, 2021, the interest rate swaps we have entered into effectively replace the floating interest rate (one-month LIBOR) with respect to $1.2 billion of our floating rate mortgage debt outstanding with a weighted average fixed rate of 1.3461%. During the term of these interest rate swap agreements, we are required to make monthly fixed rate payments of 1.3461%, on a weighted average basis, on the notional amounts, while the Counterparties are obligated to make monthly floating rate payments based on one-month LIBOR to us referencing the same notional amounts. For purposes of hedge accounting under FASB ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, we have designated these interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk. See Notes 6 and 7 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information.

The following table contains summary information regarding our outstanding interest rate swaps (dollars in thousands):

Obligations and Commitments

The following table summarizes our contractual obligations and commitments as of June 30, 2021 for the next five calendar years subsequent to June 30, 2021. We used one-month LIBOR as of June 30, 2021 to calculate interest expense due by period on our floating rate debt and net interest expense due by period on our interest rate swaps.

(1)

Interest expense obligations includes the impact of expected settlements on interest rate swaps which have been entered into in order to fix the interest rate on the hedged portion of our floating rate debt obligations. As of June 30, 2021, we had entered into eleven interest rate swap transactions with a combined notional amount of $1.2 billion. We have allocated the total impact of expected settlements on the $1.2 billion notional amount of interest rate swaps to ‘Operating Properties Mortgage Debt.’ We used one-month LIBOR as of June 30, 2021 to determine our expected settlements through the terms of the interest rate swaps.

(2)	On June 30, 2021, the Company entered into a new Corporate Credit Facility that has a maturity date of June 30, 2024.

Capital Expenditures and Value-Add Program

We anticipate incurring average annual repairs and maintenance expense of $575 to $725 per apartment unit in connection with the ongoing operations of our business. These expenditures are expensed as incurred. In addition, we reserve, on average, approximately $250 to $350 per apartment unit for non-recurring capital expenditures and/or lender required replacement reserves. When incurred, these expenditures are either capitalized or expensed, in accordance with GAAP, depending on the type of the expenditure. Although we will continuously monitor the adequacy of this average, we believe these figures to be sufficient to maintain the properties at a high level in the markets in which we operate. A majority of the properties in our Portfolio were underwritten and acquired with the premise that we would invest $4,000 to $10,000 per unit in the first 36 months of ownership, in an effort to add value to the asset’s exterior and interiors. In many cases, we reserve cash at the closing of each acquisition to fund these planned capital expenditures and value-add improvements. As of June 30, 2021, we had approximately $9.3 million of renovation value-add reserves for our planned capital expenditures and other expenses to implement our value-add program, which will complete approximately 1,428 planned interior rehabs. The following table sets forth a summary of our capital expenditures related to our value-add program for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands):

		For the Three Months Ended June 30,				For the Six Months Ended June 30,
Rehab Expenditures		2021		2020		2021		2020
Interior	(1)	$	3,027	$	2,765	$	5,359	$	5,123
Exterior and common area			2,321		5,339		5,281		10,958
Total rehab expenditures		$	5,348	$	8,104	$	10,640	$	16,081

(1)	Includes total capital expenditures during the period on completed and in-progress interior rehabs. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, we completed full and partial interior rehabs on 621 and 966 units, respectively.

Freddie Mac Multifamily Green Advantage Program

In order to obtain more favorable pricing on our mortgage debt financing with Freddie Mac, the Company decided to participate in Freddie Mac’s Multifamily Green Advantage program (the “Green Program”). As of June 30, 2021, the Company has completed its Green Program improvements on all but one property, which is expected to be completed in 2021. We expect to reduce water/sewer costs at each property where the Green Program is implemented by at least 15% through the replacement of showerheads, plumbing fixtures and toilets with modern energy efficient upgrades. Due to changes in Freddie Mac’s requirements to participate in the Green Program, we are not implementing this on acquisitions going forward.

Income Taxes

We anticipate that we will continue to qualify to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and we intend to continue to be organized and to operate in a manner that will permit us to qualify as a REIT. To qualify as a REIT, we must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of our annual REIT taxable income to stockholders. As a REIT, we will be subject to federal income tax on our undistributed REIT taxable income and net capital gain and to a 4% nondeductible excise tax on any amount by which distributions we pay with respect to any calendar year are less than the sum of (1) 85% of our ordinary income, (2) 95% of our capital gain net income and (3) 100% of our undistributed income from prior years. Taxable income from certain non-REIT activities is managed through a TRS and is subject to applicable federal, state, and local income and margin taxes. We had no significant taxes associated with our TRS for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate income tax rates, and dividends paid to our stockholders would not be deductible by us in computing taxable income. Any resulting corporate liability could be substantial and could materially and adversely affect our net income (loss) and net cash available for distribution to stockholders. Unless we were entitled to relief under certain Code provisions, we also would be disqualified from re-electing to be taxed as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year in which we failed to qualify to be taxed as a REIT.

We evaluate the accounting and disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing our tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” (greater than 50 percent probability) of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Our management is required to analyze all open tax years, as defined by the statute of limitations, for all major jurisdictions, which include federal and certain states. We have no examinations in progress and none are expected at this time.

We recognize our tax positions and evaluate them using a two-step process. First, we determine whether a tax position is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. Second, we will determine the amount of benefit to recognize and record the amount that is more likely than not to be realized upon ultimate settlement.

We had no material unrecognized tax benefit or expense, accrued interest or penalties as of June 30, 2021. We and our subsidiaries are subject to federal income tax as well as income tax of various state and local jurisdictions. The 2020, 2019 and 2018 tax years remain open to examination by tax jurisdictions to which our subsidiaries and we are subject. When applicable, we recognize interest and/or penalties related to uncertain tax positions on our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

Dividends

We intend to make regular quarterly dividend payments to holders of our common stock. U.S. federal income tax law generally requires that a REIT distribute annually at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains. As a REIT, we will be subject to federal income tax on our undistributed REIT taxable income and net capital gain and to a 4% nondeductible excise tax on any amount by which distributions we pay with respect to any calendar year are less than the sum of (1) 85% of our ordinary income, (2) 95% of our capital gain net income and (3) 100% of our undistributed income from prior years. We intend to make regular quarterly dividend payments of all or substantially all of our taxable income to holders of our common stock out of assets legally available for this purpose, if and to the extent authorized by our Board. Before we make any dividend payments, whether for U.S. federal income tax purposes or otherwise, we must first meet both our operating requirements and debt service on our debt payable. If our cash available for distribution is less than our taxable income, we could be required to sell assets, borrow funds or raise additional capital to make cash dividends or we may make a portion of the required dividend in the form of a taxable distribution of stock or debt securities.

We will make dividend payments based on our estimate of taxable earnings per share of common stock, but not earnings calculated pursuant to GAAP. Our dividends and taxable income and GAAP earnings will typically differ due to items such as depreciation and amortization, fair value adjustments, differences in premium amortization and discount accretion, and non-deductible general and administrative expenses. Our quarterly dividends per share may be substantially different than our quarterly taxable earnings and GAAP earnings per share. Our Board declared our second quarterly dividend of 2021 of $0.34125 per share on April 26, 2021 which was paid on June 30, 2021 and funded out of cash flows from operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires our management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate these judgments, assumptions and estimates for changes that would affect the reported amounts. These estimates are based on management’s historical industry experience and on various other judgments and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these judgments, assumptions and estimates. Below is a discussion of the accounting policies that we consider critical to understanding our financial condition or results of operations where there is uncertainty or where significant judgment is required. A discussion of recent accounting pronouncements and our significant accounting policies, including further discussion of the accounting policies described below, can be found in Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report.

Purchase Price Allocation

Upon acquisition of a property considered to be an asset acquisition, the purchase price and related acquisition costs (“total consideration”) are allocated to land, buildings, improvements, furniture, fixtures, and equipment, and intangible lease assets based on relative fair value in accordance with FASB ASC 805, Business Combinations. Acquisition costs are capitalized in accordance with FASB ASC 805.

The allocation of total consideration, which is determined using inputs that are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy established by FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures (see Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements), is based on management’s estimate of the property’s “as-if” vacant fair value and is calculated by using all available information such as the replacement cost of such asset, appraisals, property condition reports, market data and other related information. If any debt is assumed in an acquisition, the difference between the fair value, which is estimated using inputs that are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, and the face value of debt is recorded as a premium or discount and amortized as interest expense over the life of the debt assumed.

Impairment

Real estate assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The key inputs into our impairment analysis include, but are not limited to, the holding period, net operating income, and capitalization rates. In such cases, we will evaluate the recoverability of such real estate assets based on estimated future cash flows and the estimated liquidation value of such real estate assets, and provide for impairment if such undiscounted cash flows are insufficient to recover the carrying amount of the real estate asset. If impaired, the real estate asset will be written down to its estimated fair value. The Company’s impairment analysis identifies and evaluates events or changes in circumstances that indicate the carrying amount of a real estate investment may not be recoverable, including determining the period the Company will hold the rental property, net operating income, and the estimated capitalization rate for each respective real estate investment.

Inflation

The real estate market has not been affected significantly by inflation in the past several years due to a relatively low inflation rate. The majority of our lease terms are for a period of one year or less and reset to market if renewed. The majority of our leases also contain protection provisions applicable to reimbursement billings for utilities. Should inflation return, due to the short-term nature of our leases, we do not believe our results will be materially affected.

REIT Tax Election

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code and expect to continue to qualify as a REIT. To qualify as a REIT, we must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that we distribute at least 90% of our “REIT taxable income,” as defined by the Code, to our stockholders. Taxable income from certain non-REIT activities is managed through a TRS and is subject to applicable federal, state, and local income and margin taxes. We had no significant taxes associated with our TRS for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. We believe we qualify for taxation as a REIT under the Code, and we intend to continue to operate in such a manner, but no assurance can be given that we will operate in a manner so as to qualify as a REIT.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risk is the adverse effect on the value of assets and liabilities that results from a change in market conditions. Our primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk with respect to our indebtedness and counterparty credit risk with respect to our interest rate derivatives. In order to minimize counterparty credit risk, we enter into and expect to enter into hedging arrangements only with major financial institutions that have high credit ratings. As of June 30, 2021, we had total indebtedness of $1.5 billion at a weighted average interest rate of 1.91%, of which $1.4 billion was debt with a floating interest rate. The interest rate swap agreements we have entered into effectively fix the interest rate on 100% of our $1.2 billion of floating rate mortgage debt outstanding (see below). As of June 30, 2021, the adjusted weighted average interest rate of our total indebtedness was 2.94%. For purposes of calculating the adjusted weighted average interest rate of the total indebtedness, we have included the weighted average fixed rate of 1.3461% for one-month LIBOR on the $1.2 billion notional amount of interest rate swap agreements that we have entered into as of June 30, 2021.

An increase in interest rates could make the financing of any acquisition by us costlier. Rising interest rates could also limit our ability to refinance our debt when it matures or cause us to pay higher interest rates upon refinancing and increase interest expense on refinanced indebtedness. We may manage, or hedge, interest rate risks related to our borrowings by means of interest rate cap and interest rate swap agreements. As of June 30, 2021, the interest rate cap agreements we have entered into effectively cap one-month LIBOR on $428.8 million of our floating rate mortgage debt at a weighted average rate of 5.28% for the term of the agreements, which is generally 3 to 4 years. We also expect to manage our exposure to interest rate risk by maintaining a mix of fixed and floating rates for our indebtedness.

In order to fix a portion of, and mitigate the risk associated with, our floating rate indebtedness (without incurring substantial prepayment penalties or defeasance costs typically associated with fixed rate indebtedness when repaid early or refinanced), we, through the OP, have entered into thirteen interest rate swap transactions with the Counterparties with a combined notional amount of $1.2 billion. The interest rate swaps we have entered into effectively replace the floating interest rate (one-month LIBOR) with respect to that amount with a weighted average fixed rate of 1.3461%. During the term of these interest rate swap agreements, we are required to make monthly fixed rate payments of 1.3461%, on a weighted average basis, on the notional amounts, while the Counterparties are obligated to make monthly floating rate payments based on one-month LIBOR to us referencing the same notional amounts. We have designated these interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk.

Until our interest rates reach the caps provided by our interest rate cap agreements, each quarter point change in LIBOR would result in an approximate increase to annual interest expense costs on our floating rate indebtedness, reduced by any payments due from the Counterparties under the terms of the interest rate swap agreements we had entered into as of June 30, 2021, of the amounts illustrated in the table below for our indebtedness as of June 30, 2021 (dollars in thousands):

Change in Interest Rates	Annual Increase to Interest Expense
0.25%	$	620
0.50%		1,240
0.75%		1,860
1.00%		2,480

There is no assurance that we would realize such expense as such changes in interest rates could alter our liability positions or strategies in response to such changes.

We may also be exposed to credit risk in the derivative financial instruments we use. Credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative financial instruments. If the fair value of a derivative financial instrument is positive, the counterparty will owe us, which creates credit risk for us. If the fair value of a derivative financial instrument is negative, we will owe the counterparty and, therefore, do not have credit risk. We seek to minimize the credit risk in derivative financial instruments by entering into transactions with major financial institutions that have high credit ratings.

In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority of the U.K. (the “FCA”) (the authority that regulates LIBOR) announced it intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. The Alternative Reference Rates (“ARRC”) has proposed that the SOFR is the rate that represents best practice as the alternative to USD-LIBOR for use in derivatives and other financial contracts that are currently indexed to USD-LIBOR. ARRC has proposed a paced market transition plan to SOFR from USD-LIBOR and organizations are currently working on industry wide and company specific transition plans as it relates to derivatives and cash markets exposed to USD-LIBOR. Although SOFR appears to be the preferred replacement rate for U.S. dollar LIBOR, at this time, it is not possible to predict the effect of any such changes, any establishment of alternative reference rates, whether the COVID-19 outbreak will have further effect on LIBOR transition timelines or plans, or other reforms to LIBOR that may be enacted in the United States, United Kingdom or elsewhere. Furthermore, on November 30, 2020, the ICE Benchmark Administration Limited, with the support of the FCA and the U.S. Federal Reserve, announced plans to consult on ceasing publication of LIBOR on December 31, 2021 for only the one-week and two-month LIBOR tenors, and on June 30, 2023 for all other LIBOR tenors. While this announcement extends the transition period to June 2023, the U.S. Federal Reserve concurrently issued a statement advising banks to stop new LIBOR issuances by the end of 2021. On March 5, 2021, the FCA confirmed that all LIBOR settings will either cease to be provided by any administrator or no longer be representative: (a) immediately after December 31, 2021, in the case of the one-week and two-month U.S. dollar settings; and (b) immediately after June 30, 2023, in the case of the remaining U.S. dollar settings. We have material contracts that are indexed to USD-LIBOR and are monitoring this activity and evaluating the related risks.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) and Rule 15d-15(b) under the Exchange Act, our management, including our President and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated, as of June 30, 2021, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e). Based on that evaluation, our President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2021, to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of the Exchange Act and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the President and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

We believe, however, that a controls system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls systems are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud or error, if any, within a company have been detected.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are party to legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. Management is not aware of any legal proceedings of which the outcome is reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition, nor are we aware of any such legal proceedings contemplated by government agencies.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed under Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report, filed with the SEC on February 22, 2021.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Repurchase of Shares

On June 15, 2016, we announced that our Board authorized us to repurchase an indeterminate number of shares of our common stock at an aggregate market value of up to $30.0 million during a two-year period that was set to expire on June 15, 2018 (the “Share Repurchase Program”). On April 30, 2018, our Board increased the Share Repurchase Program from $30.0 million to up to $40.0 million and extended it by an additional two years to June 15, 2020. On March 13, 2020, the Board increased the Share Repurchase Program from $40.0 million to up to $100.0 million and extended it to March 12, 2023. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company repurchased no shares of its common stock. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company repurchased 1,644,697 shares of its common stock. Since the inception of the Share Repurchase Program through June 30, 2021, the Company had repurchased 2,382,155 shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share, at a total cost of approximately $61.2 million, or $25.70 per share as shown in the table below:

Period	Total Number of Shares Purchased		Average Price Paid Per Share		Total Number of Shares Purchased as Part of Publicly Announced Plans or Programs		Approximate Dollar Value of Shares that may yet be Purchased under the Plans or Programs (in millions)
