You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on this information, which speaks only as of the date of this report. We assume no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent we are required to do so in connection with our ongoing requirements under federal securities laws to disclose material information.

   One mixed use property which total approximately 55,000 rentable square feet (“Mixed Use Properties”), and

 

One hundred twenty-nine Model Homes owned by four affiliated limited partnerships and one limited liability company (“Residential Properties”).

The Company operates in the following partnerships during the periods covered by these condensed consolidated financial statements:

 

The Company is the sole General Partner in two limited partnerships (NetREIT Palm Self-Storage LP and NetREIT Casa Grande LP), all with ownership in real estate income producing properties. The Company refers to these entities collectively, as the “NetREIT Partnerships”. In June 2016, the Company purchased the 5.99% outside interest in NetREIT Garden Gateway LP.

 

The Company is the general and limited partner in four partnerships that purchase and lease back Model Homes from developers (“Dubose Model Home Investors #201, LP”, “Dubose Model Homes Investors #202, LP”, “Dubose Model Homes Investors #203, LP” and “NetREIT Dubose Model Home REIT, LP”). The Company refers to these entities collectively, as the “Model Home Partnerships”.  

The Company has determined that the entities described above, where it owns less than 100%, should be included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as the Company directs their activities and believes that it controls these limited partnerships through NetREIT, the Parent Company.

The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code, for federal income tax purposes. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must distribute annually at least 90% of adjusted taxable income, as defined in the Code, to its stockholders and satisfy certain other organizational and operating requirements. As a REIT, no provision is made for federal income taxes on income resulting from those sales of real estate investments which have or will be distributed to stockholders within the prescribed limits. However, taxes are provided for those gains which are not anticipated to be distributed to stockholders unless such gains are deferred pursuant to Section 1031. In addition, the Company is subject to a federal excise tax which equals 4% of the excess, if any, of 85% of the Company’s ordinary income plus 95% of the Company’s capital gain net income over cash distributions, as defined. The Company believes that it has met all of the REIT distribution and technical requirements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

Earnings and profits that determine the taxability of distributions to stockholders differ from net income reported for financial reporting purposes due to differences in estimated useful lives and tax deprecation methods used to compute the carrying value (basis) on the investments in properties for tax purposes, among other things. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, all distributions paid were considered return of capital to the stockholders as we reported a taxable net loss during the period.

The Company has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in its financial statements. Neither the Company nor its subsidiaries have been assessed any significant interest or penalties for tax positions by any major tax jurisdictions.

 

 

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There have been no significant changes to the Company’s accounting policies since it filed its audited financial statements in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. For further information about the Company’s accounting policies, refer to the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2016 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 17, 2017 and amended on April 20, 2017.

Basis of Presentation. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company's management in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial statement and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Certain information and footnote disclosures required for annual consolidated financial statements have been condensed or excluded pursuant to rules and regulations of the SEC. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature that are considered necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of our operations, and cash flows as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. However, the results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at year ended December 31, 2016 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 17, 2017 and amended on April 20, 2017.

Principles of Consolidation. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries and entities the Company controls or of which it is the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates include the allocation of purchase price paid for property acquisitions between land, building and intangible assets acquired including their useful lives; valuation of long-lived assets, and the allowance for doubtful accounts, which is based on an evaluation of the tenants’ ability to pay. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Asset Impairments. We review the carrying value of each of our real estate properties quarterly to determine if circumstances indicate an impairment in the carrying value of these investments exists. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, management did not believe any impairment reserve was required.

Reclassifications. Certain reclassifications have been made to the previously presented consolidated financial statements and condensed consolidated financial statements to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of consolidated operations or equity.

Subsequent Events. We evaluate subsequent events up until the date the consolidated financial statements are issued.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU No. 2016-02”). The amendments in ASU No. 2016 -02 changes the existing accounting standards for lease accounting, including requiring lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets and making targeted changes to lessor accounting. ASU No. 2016-02 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 as of its issuance is permitted. The new leases standard requires a modified retrospective transition approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to use certain transition relief. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new leases standard on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In November 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash”. This update requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. As a result, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning of period and end of period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The new standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 with early adoption permitted. The amendments should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. The Company is still evaluating the provisions of ASU 2016-18 and its impact on the consolidated statement of cash flows.

8.  SERIES B MANDATORILY REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK

In August 2014, the Company closed on a private placement offering of its mandatorily redeemable Series B Preferred Stock. The financing, was funded in installments and completed on December 24, 2015. As of December 31, 2015, the Company had issued 35,000 shares of its Series B Preferred Stock. The Company has classified the Series B Preferred Stock as a liability in accordance with ASC Topic No. 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” which states that mandatorily redeemable financial instruments should be classified as liabilities and therefore the related dividend payments are treated as a component of interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

The Series B preferred stock has a $0.01 par value and a $1,000 liquidation preference. The Series B preferred stock shall be redeemed through a cash payment of the face value of the shares outstanding at redemption. The preferred return on the funds invested is 14% and shall be paid on a monthly basis. The Series B Preferred Stock was scheduled to be redeemed on August 1, 2017; however, the Company had two one year options to extend the redemption date. On June 30, 2017, the Company exercised its option to extend the redemption date to August 1, 2019 and paid an extension fee of $153,500. The Company incurred approximately $3.1 million in legal and underwriting costs related to this transaction. These costs have been recorded as deferred financing costs on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability and are being amortized over the term of the agreement. Amortization expense totaling approximately $507,000 and $507,000 was included in interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The unamortized deferred stock costs totaled $237,000 and $592,000 as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

During 2016, the Company redeemed 300 shares in June, 1,000 shares in July and 1,000 shares in August for a total of $2.3 million. During 2017, the Company redeemed 1,000 shares in March and 1,000 shares in May for a total of $2.0 million. As of June 30, 2017, the remaining outstanding share balance was 30,700.  

 

9. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

Preferred Stock. The Company is authorized to issue up to 8,990,000 shares of preferred stock (the “Preferred Stock”). The Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. The Board of Directors is authorized to fix the number of shares of any series of the Preferred Stock, to determine the designation of any such series, and to determine or alter the rights granted to or imposed upon any wholly unissued series of preferred stock including the dividend rights, dividend rate, conversion rights, voting rights, redemption rights (including sinking fund provisions), redemption price, and liquidation preference.

Common Stock. The Company is authorized to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of Series A Common Stock (“Common Stock”) $0.01 par value and 1,000 shares of Series B Common Stock $0.01 par value. The Common Stock and the Series B Common Stock have identical rights, preferences, terms and conditions except that the Series B Common Stockholders are not entitled to receive any portion of Company assets in the event of Company liquidation. There have been no Series B Common Stock shares issued. Each share of Common Stock entitles the holder to one vote. The Common Stock is not subject to redemption and it does not have any preference, conversion, exchange or pre-emptive rights. The articles of incorporation contain a restriction on ownership of the Common Stock that prevents one person from owning more than 9.8% of the outstanding shares of common stock.

In October 2006, the Company commenced a private placement offering of its common stock. Through December 31, 2011 when the offering was closed, the Company conducted a self-underwritten private placement offering and sale of 20,000,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $10 per share. This offering was made only to accredited investors (and up to thirty-five non-accredited investors) pursuant to an exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) and Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. No public or private market currently exists for the securities sold under this offering.

13


Cash Dividends. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 the Company paid cash dividends, net of reinvested stock dividends, of approximately $2,384,000 and $2,145,000, respectively, or at a rate of $0.40 per share on an annualized basis.  As the Company expects to report net taxable losses for the year ended December 31, 2017, and on a cumulative basis, the cash dividends paid are expected to be a return of capital to the stockholders rather than a distribution of earnings.

Dividend Reinvestment Plan. The Company has adopted a distribution reinvestment plan that allows stockholders to have dividends and other distributions otherwise distributable to them invested in additional shares of Company common stock. The Company has registered 3,000,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the dividend reinvestment plan. The dividend reinvestment plan became effective on January 23, 2012. The purchase price per share is 95% of the price the Company was formerly selling its shares or $9.50 per share. No sales commission or dealer manager fee will be paid on shares sold through the dividend reinvestment plan. The Company may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan at any time. Any such amendment, suspension or termination will be effective upon a designated dividend record date and notice of such amendment, suspension or termination will be sent to all Participants at least thirty (30) days prior to such record date. As of June 30, 2017 approximately $16.9 million or approximately 1,777,469 shares of common stock have been issued under the dividend reinvestment plan to date.

 

 

10.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company leases a portion of its corporate headquarters at Pacific Oaks Plaza in Escondido, California to entities 100% owned by the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Rental income recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 totaled $7,000 and $7,000, respectively, and $14,000 and $14,000, respectively.  

11. SEGMENTS

The Company’s reportable segments consist of three types of commercial real estate properties for which the Company’s decision-makers internally evaluate operating performance and financial results: Office/Industrial/Mixed Use Properties, Residential Properties and Retail Properties. The Company also has certain corporate level activities including accounting, finance, legal administration and management information systems which are not considered separate operating segments.  The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 2.  There is no inter segment activity.

The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based upon net operating income (“NOI”), which is a non-GAAP supplemental financial measure. The Company defines NOI for its segments as operating revenues (rental income, tenant reimbursements and other operating income) less property and related expenses (property operating expenses, real estate taxes, insurance, asset management fees, impairments and provision for bad debt). NOI excludes certain items that are not considered to be controllable in connection with the management of an asset such as non-property income and expenses, depreciation and amortization, real estate acquisition fees and expenses and corporate general and administrative expenses. The Company uses NOI to evaluate the operating performance of the Company’s real estate investments and to make decisions about resource allocations.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion relates to our financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, footnotes and to Cautionary Statements appearing elsewhere in this report.

OVERVIEW

The Company operates as a self-managed and self-administered real estate investment trust, or REIT.  The Company acquires, owns and manages a geographically diversified portfolio of real estate assets including industrial, office, retail and model home leased residential properties located throughout the United States. As of June 30, 2017, the Company owned or had an equity interest in:

 

Fifteen multi-tenant office buildings and two industrial properties (“Office/Industrial Properties”) which total approximately 1,467,000 rentable square feet,

 

Four retail shopping centers (“Retail Properties”) which total approximately 230,000 rentable square feet,

 

   One mixed use property which total approximately 55, rentable square feet (“Mixed Use Properties”), and

 

One hundred twenty-nine Model Homes owned by four affiliated limited partnerships and one limited liability company (“Residential Properties”).

NetREIT’s office, industrial, retail and mixed use properties are located primarily in Southern California and Colorado, with four properties located in North Dakota. Our geographical clustering of assets enables us to reduce our operating costs through economies of scale by servicing a number of properties with less staff, but it also makes us more susceptible to changing market conditions in these discrete geographic areas.  We do not develop properties but acquire properties that are stabilized or that we anticipate will be stabilized within two or three years of acquisition. We consider a property to be stabilized once it has achieved an 80% occupancy rate for a full year as of January 1 of such year, or has been operating for three years.

Most of our office, industrial, retail and mixed use properties are leased to a variety of tenants ranging from small businesses to large public companies, many of which do not have publicly rated debt. We have in the past entered into, and intend in the future to enter into, purchase agreements for real estate having net leases that require the tenant to pay all of the operating expense (NNN Leases) or pay increases in operating expenses over specific base years. Decreased demand and other negative trends or unforeseeable events that impair our ability to timely renew or re-lease space could have a negative effect on our future financial condition, results of operations and cash flow.

Our Model Homes are typically leased for 2 to 3 years to the home developer on a triple net lease.  Under a triple net lease, the tenant is required to pay all operating, maintenance and insurance costs and real estate taxes with respect to the leased property.  We seek to diversify our portfolio by commercial real estate segments to reduce the adverse effect of a single under-performing segment, geographic market and/or tenant. We further supplement this at the tenant level through our credit review process, which varies by tenant class.  For example, our commercial and industrial tenants tend to be corporations or individual owned businesses.  In these cases, we typically obtain financial records, including financial statements and tax returns, and run credit reports for any prospective tenant to support our decision to enter into a rental arrangement. We also typically obtain security deposits from these commercial entities. Our Model Home business tenants are typically substantial home developers with established credit histories. These tenants are subject to financial review and analysis prior to entering into a sale-leaseback transaction. Our ownership of the underlying property provides a further means to avoiding significant credit losses.

SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTIONS IN 2017 AND 2016

Acquisitions

 

The Company acquired thirty Model Home properties and leased them back to the homebuilders during the six months ended June 30, 2017. The purchase price for the properties was $9.7 million. The purchase price paid was through cash payments of $2.9 million and mortgage notes of $6.8 million.

 

 

The Company acquired sixty-five Model Home properties and leased them back to the homebuilders during the twelve months ended December 31, 2016. The purchase price for the properties was $23.7 million. The purchase price paid was through cash payments of $7.5 million and mortgage notes of $16.2 million.

Dispositions - We review our portfolio of investment properties for value appreciation potential on an ongoing basis, and dispose of any properties that no longer satisfy our requirements in this regard. The proceeds from any such property sale, after repayment of any associated mortgage, are available for investing in properties that we believe will have a much greater likelihood of future price

17


appreciation. We disposed of the following properties during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016:

 

On February 27, 2017, the Company sold the Rangewood Medical Building for approximately $2.2 million and recognized a loss of approximately $170,000.

 

On March 31, 2017, the Company sold the Regatta Square Retail Center for approximately $3.0 million and recognized a gain of approximately $756,000.

 

On April 7, 2017, the Company sold the Shoreline Medical Building for approximately $8.2 million and recognized a gain of approximately $1.3 million.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company disposed of nine Model Homes for approximately $2.5 million and recognized a gain of approximately $141,000 related to the sale of these Model Homes.

 

In July 2016, the Company sold the Havana Parker Complex for approximately $3.3 million and recognized a gain of approximately $668,000.

 

In June 2016, the Company sold a parcel of land and its building at the Yucca Valley Retail Center for approximately $1.3 million and recognized a gain of approximately $831,000.

 

During 2016, the Company sold twenty-one Model Homes for approximately $6.4 million, resulting in gain on sales of approximately $687,000.

 

ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT

 

The United States continues to expand its economy, one of the longest expansions on record. Q1 2017 GDP growth, however, was weak, at 1.2%; Q2 2017 is currently estimated by the BEA at 2.6%. The Federal Reserve has remained optimistic about the US’ economic outlook, and currently anticipates two more rate hikes in 2017.

 

The US labor market is still competitive, with a rate of only 4.3% unemployment. Unemployment in the in the office-using sector of professional & business services was even lower, at 4.1%, and that could be favorable for the commercial real estate segment. Vacancy rates for the office sector of commercial real estate rose slightly to 14.8%. During the quarter, net absorption in the US office market was 8.8 million square feet. 

 

The economy’s moderate growth has continued so far in 2017, with some second quarter growth in household spending and positive consumer sentiment. Fixed investment has also increased this year after a slow 2016, and growth in export markets helped to keep US manufacturing buoyant. The housing market remained strong, with continued, historically low mortgage rates.

 

It is impossible to project US economic growth but economic conditions could have a material effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies as previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the SEC on March 17, 2017 and amended on April 20, 2017.

MANAGEMENT EVALUATION OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Management’s evaluation of operating results includes an assessment of our ability to generate cash flow necessary to pay operating expenses, general and administrative expenses, debt service and to fund distributions to our stockholders. As a result, Management’s assessment of operating results gives less emphasis to the effects of unrealized gains and losses and other non-cash charges, such as depreciation and amortization and impairment charges, which may cause fluctuations in net income for comparable periods but have no impact on cash flows. Management’s evaluation of our potential for generating cash flow includes assessments of our recently acquired properties, our non-stabilized properties, long-term sustainability of our real estate portfolio, our future operating cash flow from anticipated acquisitions, and the proceeds from the sales of our real estate assets.

In addition, Management evaluates our portfolio and individual properties results of operations with a primary focus on increasing and enhancing the value, quality and quantity of properties in our real estate holdings. Management focuses its efforts on improving underperforming assets through re-leasing efforts, including negotiation of lease renewals and rental rates. Properties that have reached goals in occupancy and rental rates are evaluated for potential added value appreciation and, if lacking such potential, are sold with the equity reinvested in properties that have better potential without foregoing cash flow.  Our ability to increase assets under management is affected by our ability to raise borrowings and/or capital, coupled with our ability to identify appropriate investments.

18


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2017 AND 2016.

Our results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 are not indicative of those expected in future periods as we expect that rental income, interest expense, rental operating expense and depreciation and amortization will increase in future periods as a result of anticipated growth through future acquisitions of real estate related investments.

Revenues.  Total revenue was $8.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to $7.8 million for the same period in 2016, an increase of $700,000 or 9.0%. The increase in revenue as reported for the three month period in 2017 as compared to 2016 is due to a favorable insurance claim of approximately $525,000 in excess of the cost to repair roof damage at one of the properties. As same store occupancy remained largely consistent at 90.0% and 88.75% as of June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, the remaining $175,000 increase was due to an increase in rental rates.

Rental Operating Costs.  Rental operating costs remained consistent at approximately $2.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.  Rental operating costs as a percentage of total revenue was 30.5% and 29.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses were $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to $1.2 million for the same period in 2016, an increase of approximately $200,000 or 16.7%. The increase in G&A expense is due to the annual salary increases and an increase in group insurance rates.  G&A expenses as a percentage of total revenue was 16.9% and 15.8% for three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense totaled approximately $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, compared to approximately $2.5 million for the same period in 2016, representing a decrease of approximately $100,000 or 4.2%. Depreciation and amortization expense associated with properties sold and held for sale account for all of the decrease during the quarter.

Asset Impairments. We review the carrying value of each of our real estate properties quarterly to determine if circumstances indicate an impairment in the carrying value of these investments exists. During three months ended June 30, 2017, management did not believe any impairment reserve was required.

Interest Expense-Series B preferred stock. The Series B Preferred Stock issued in August 2014 includes a mandatory redemption provision and therefore is treated as a liability for financial reporting purposes. The interest paid and accrued and the amortization of the deferred offering costs are considered interest expense. Interest expense, including amortization of the deferred offering costs, totaled $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to $1.6 million for the same period in 2016. Interest paid and accrued totaled $1.1 million and $1.2 million, respectively, and the amortization of the deferred offering costs associated with that transaction totaled $254,000 and $254,000, respectively for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 and were included in interest expense-Series B preferred stock in the accompanying financial statements. There were 30,700 and 34,700 shares outstanding as of June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, resulting in the decrease in interest expense.

Interest Expense-mortgage notes. Interest expense, including amortization of deferred finance charges remained consistent for the three months June 30, 2017 when compared to the same period in 2016 totaling $2.0 and 1.9 million, respectively. The weighted average interest rate on our outstanding debt was 4.7 % as of June 30, 2017 compared to 4.7% as of June 30, 2016.

Revenues.  Total revenue was $16.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to $16.2 million for the same period in 2016, an increase of $600,000 or 3.7%. The increase in revenue as reported for the six months month period in 2017 as compared to 2016  due to a favorable insurance claim of approximately $525,000 in excess of the cost to repair roof damage at one of the

19


properties. As same store occupancy remained largely consistent at 90.0% and 88.75% as of June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, the remaining $75,000 increase was due to an increase in rental rates.

Rental Operating Costs.  Rental operating costs were $5.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to $5.1 million for the same period in 2016, an increase of approximately $200,000 or 3.92%.  Rental operating costs as a percentage of total revenue was 31.4% and 31.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses was $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to $2.5 million for the same period in 2016, an increase of  approximately $100,000 or 4.0%. The increase in G&A expense is due to annual salary increases and an increase in group insurance rates.  G&A expenses as a percentage of total revenue was 15.7% and 15.2% for six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense totaled approximately $4.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to approximately $5.2 million for the same period in 2016, representing a decrease of approximately $300,000 or 5.7 %. Depreciation and amortization expense associated with properties sold and held for sale account for all of the decrease during the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Asset Impairments. We review the carrying value of each of our real estate properties quarterly to determine if circumstances indicate an impairment in the carrying value of these investments exists. During six months ended June 30, 2017, management did not believe any impairment reserve was required.

Interest Expense-Series B preferred stock. The Series B Preferred Stock issued in August 2014 includes a mandatory redemption provision and therefore is treated as a liability for financial reporting purposes.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Overview

Our future sources of liquidity include existing cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operations, new mortgages on our unencumbered properties, refinancing of existing mortgages, future real estate sales and the possible sale of additional equity/debt securities. Our available liquidity at June 30, 2017 included cash and cash equivalents of $5.8 million, as well as, funds from mortgages and refinancing of mortgages with low debt to value. We currently do not have a revolving line of credit but have been exploring the possibilities of obtaining such a line of credit. On June 30, 2017, the Company exercised its option to extend the redemption date on its Series B preferred stock to August 1, 2019 and paid an extension fee of $153,500.

 

Our future capital needs include paying down existing borrowings, maintaining our existing properties, funding tenant improvements, paying lease commissions (not covered by lender held reserve deposits), monthly payments on the Series B preferred stock and the payment of a competitive distribution to our stockholders. We also are actively seeking investments that are likely to produce income

20


and achieve long term gains in order to pay distributions to our stockholders. To ensure that we are able to effectively execute these objectives, we routinely review our liquidity requirements and continually evaluate all potential sources of liquidity.

Our short term liquidity needs include paying our current operating costs, satisfying the debt service requirements of our existing mortgages, completing tenant improvements and funding for our distributions to stockholders. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, our principal debt service was approximately $1.8 million (debt paid off in connection with sales of real estate was $4.8 million) and the cash portion of the distributions to our common shareholders was $2.4 million, while the net cash provided by our operating activities totaled approximately $2.1 million. The remainder of the short term liquidity needs was covered by our cash and cash equivalents. We believe that the cash flow from our existing portfolio and our acquisitions and distributions from joint ventures in Model Home partnerships will be sufficient to fund our near term operating costs, capital expenditures, debt service costs and the cash portion of distributions to stockholders at the current rate. However, if our cash flow from operating activities is not sufficient to fund our short term liquidity needs, we will fund a portion of these needs from additional borrowings of secured or unsecured indebtedness or we will reduce the rate of distribution to the stockholders.  

Our long-term liquidity needs include proceeds necessary to grow and maintain our portfolio of investments. We believe that the potential financing capital available to us in the future is sufficient to fund our long-term liquidity needs.  We are continually reviewing our existing portfolio to determine which properties have met our short and long term goals and reinvesting the proceeds in properties with better potential to increase performance.  We expect to obtain additional cash in connection with refinancing of maturing mortgages and assumption of existing debt collateralized by some or all of our real property in the future to meet our long-term liquidity needs.  If we are unable to arrange a line of credit, borrow on unencumbered properties, or sell securities to the public we may not be able to acquire additional properties to meet our long-term objectives.  

Cash and Cash Equivalents

At June 30, 2017, we had approximately $5.8 million in cash and cash equivalents.  Our cash and cash equivalents are held in bank accounts at third party institutions and consist of invested cash and cash in our operating accounts.  During 2017 and 2016, we did not experience any loss or lack of access to our cash or cash equivalents. Approximately $2.0 million of our cash balance is intended for capital expenditures on existing properties (net of deposits held in reserve accounts by our lenders). We intend to use the remainder of our existing cash and cash equivalents for acquisitions, general corporate purposes and distributions to our stockholders.

Secured Debt

As of June 30, 2017, NetREIT had fixed-rate mortgage notes payable in the aggregate principal amount of $134.4 million, collateralized by a total of 21 properties with loan terms at issuance ranging from 5 to 20 years.  The weighted-average interest rate on the mortgage notes payable as of June 30, 2017 was approximately 4.7 %, and our debt to estimated market value on these properties was approximately 55.4%.

As of June 30, 2017, NetREIT Dubose, and related entities, had 126 fixed-rate mortgage notes payable in the aggregate principal amount of $27.4 million, collateralized by a total of 129 Model Home properties. These loans generally have a term at issuance of three to five years.  The average loan balance per home outstanding and the weighted-average interest rate on these mortgage loans are approximately $217,000 and 4.4%, respectively as of June 30, 2017. Our debt to estimated value on these properties is approximately 58.9%. The Company has guaranteed these promissory notes. 

We have been able to refinance maturing debts before scheduled maturity dates and we have also not experienced any unusual difficulties financing our acquisitions.

Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016.

Operating Activities: Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 increased by approximately $1.3 million to $2.0 million from net cash provided of $700,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The primary reason cash provided from operating was low during the six months ended June 30, 2016 was due to paying off $1.3 million in Series B accrued preferred dividends which were included in account payable and accrued liabilities as of December 31, 2015.

Investing Activities: Net cash provided by investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $3.4 million compared to $3.2 million of cash used in the same period in 2016. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 the Company purchased thirty model homes for approximately $9.7 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company purchased twenty-five Model Homes for approximately $7.8 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company received proceeds from the sales of two medical buildings and one retail building totaling approximately $13.3 million and the sale of nine Model homes for approximately $2.5 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company received proceeds from the sales of fifteen Model Homes totaling $4.4 million and sold a parcel of land and its building for $1.3 million.  

21


We currently project that we could spend up to $2.0 million (net of deposits held in reserve accounts by lenders) on capital improvements, tenant improvements and leasing costs for properties within our portfolio on an annual basis. Capital expenditures may fluctuate in any given period subject to the nature, extent, and timing of improvements required to the properties. We may spend more on capital expenditures in the future due to rising construction costs and the anticipated increase in property acquisitions. Tenant improvements and leasing costs may also fluctuate in any given year depending upon factors such as the property, the term of the lease, the type of lease, the involvement of external leasing agents and overall market conditions.

Financing Activities:   Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $2.7 million compared to cash provided of $1.4 million for the same period in 2016 primarily due to repaying $8.2 million in mortgage notes payable from debt service and in connection with the sales of two medical building and one retail building. During the same period in 2016, we received proceeds from mortgage notes payable of $5.5 million. During the six month ended June 30, 2017, we redeemed 2,000 shares of Series B preferred stock for $2,000,000. There were 300 shares redeemed in the same period in 2016 totaling $300,000.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2017, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements or obligations, including contingent obligations.

Non-GAAP Supplemental Financial Measures:

Funds From Operations (“FFO”)

Management believes that FFO is a useful supplemental measure of our operating performance. We compute FFO using the definition outlined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). NAREIT defines FFO as net income (loss) in accordance with GAAP, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs and depreciation of non-real estate assets) reduced by gains and losses from sales of depreciable operating property and extraordinary items, as defined by GAAP. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating FFO and, accordingly, our FFO may not be comparable to other REITs. Because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization, gains and losses from property dispositions that are available for distribution to stockholders and extraordinary items, it provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, development activities, general and administrative expenses and interest costs, providing a perspective not immediately apparent from net income. In addition, Management believes that FFO provides useful information to the investment community about our financial performance when compared to other REITs since FFO is generally recognized as the industry standard for reporting the operations of REITs. However, FFO should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our operating performance since it does not reflect either depreciation and amortization costs or the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties which are significant economic costs and could materially impact our results from operations.

Modified Funds From Operations (“MFFO”)

We define MFFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the Investment Program Association’s (“IPA”) Guideline 2010-01, Supplemental Performance Measure for Publicly Registered, Non-Listed REIT Modified Funds From Operations, or the Practice Guideline, issued by the IPA in November 2010. The Practice Guideline defines MFFO as FFO further adjusted for the following items, as applicable, included in the determination of GAAP net income: acquisition fees and expenses; amounts relating to deferred rent receivables and amortization of above-market and below-market leases and liabilities (which are adjusted in order to reflect such payments from a GAAP accrual basis to a cash basis of disclosing the rent and lease payments); accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums on debt investments; nonrecurring impairments of real estate-related investments (i.e., infrequent or unusual, not reasonably likely to recur in the ordinary course of business); mark-to-market adjustments included in net income; nonrecurring gains or losses included in net income from the extinguishment or sale of debt, hedges, foreign exchange, derivatives or securities holdings where trading of such holdings is not a fundamental attribute of the business plan, unrealized gains or losses resulting from consolidation from, or deconsolidation to, equity accounting, and after adjustments for consolidated and unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures, with such adjustments calculated to reflect MFFO on the same basis. The accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums on debt investments, nonrecurring unrealized gains and losses on hedges, foreign exchange, derivatives or securities holdings, unrealized gains and losses resulting from consolidations, as well as other listed cash flow adjustments are adjustments made to net income in calculating the cash flows provided by operating activities and, in some cases, reflect gains or losses which are unrealized and may not ultimately be realized.

Our MFFO calculation complies with the IPA’s Practice Guideline described above. In calculating MFFO, we exclude acquisition related expenses, amortization of above-market and below-market leases, deferred rent receivables and the adjustments of such items related to noncontrolling interests. Under GAAP, acquisition fees and expenses are characterized as operating expenses in determining operating net income. These expenses are paid in cash by us. All paid and accrued acquisition fees and expenses will have negative effects on returns to investors, the potential for future distributions, and cash flows generated by us, unless earnings from operations or net sales proceeds from the disposition of other properties are generated to cover the purchase price of the property, these fees and expenses and other costs related to such property. The acquisition of properties, and the corresponding acquisition fees and expenses, is the key operational feature of our business plan to generate operational income and cash flow to fund distributions to our stockholders. Further, under GAAP, certain contemplated non-cash fair value and other non-cash adjustments are considered operating non-cash adjustments to net income in determining cash flow from operating activities. In addition, we view fair value adjustments of impairment charges and gains and losses from dispositions of assets as non-recurring items or items which are unrealized and may not ultimately be realized, and which are not reflective of on-going operations and are therefore typically adjusted for when assessing operating performance. In particular, we believe it is appropriate to disregard impairment charges, as this is a fair value adjustment that is largely based on market fluctuations and assessments regarding general market conditions which can change over time. An asset will only be evaluated for impairment if certain impairment indications exist and if the carrying, or book value, exceeds the total estimated undiscounted future cash flows (including net rental and lease revenues, net proceeds on the sale of the property, and any other ancillary cash flows at a property or group level under GAAP) from such asset. Investors should note, however, that determinations of whether impairment charges have been incurred are based partly on anticipated operating performance, because estimated undiscounted future cash flows from a property, including estimated future net rental and lease revenues, net proceeds on the sale of the property, and certain other ancillary cash flows, are taken into account in determining whether an impairment charge has been incurred. While impairment charges are excluded from the calculation of MFFO as described above, investors are cautioned that due to the fact that impairments are based on estimated future undiscounted cash flows and the relatively limited term of our operations, it could be difficult to recover any impairment charges.

Same-Store Property Operating Results for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

The table below presents the 2017 and 2016 operating results for the Company’s commercial rental properties owned as of January 1, 2016, thereby excluding the impact on our results of operations from the real estate properties acquired subsequently.  The table below excludes model home operations as the rental rates do not fluctuate during the term of the lease and there are no operating expenses.  Income from discontinued operations from the self-storage portfolio are not included. The Company believes that this type of non-GAAP financial measure, when considered with our financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, is useful to investors to better understand the Company’s operating results. Properties are included in this analysis if they were owned and operated for the entirety of both periods being compared. Further, same-property operating results is a measure for which there is no standard definition and, as such, it is not consistently defined or reported on among the Company’s peers, and thus may not provide an adequate basis for comparison between REITs.

 

The Company evaluates the performance of its same-store property operating results based upon net operating income from continuing operations (“NOI”), which is a non-GAAP supplemental financial measure. The Company defines NOI as operating revenues (rental income, tenant reimbursements and other operating income) less property and related expenses (property operating expenses, real estate taxes, insurance and provision for bad debt) less interest expense. NOI excludes certain items that are not considered to be controllable in connection with the management of an asset such as non-property income and expenses, depreciation and amortization, asset management fees and corporate general and administrative expenses. The Company believes that net income is

23


the GAAP measure that is most directly comparable to NOI; however, NOI should not be considered as an alternative to net income as the primary indicator of operating performance as it excludes the items described above. Additionally, NOI as defined above may not be comparable to other REITs or companies as their definitions of NOI may differ from the Company’s definition.

Overview

Same-store property NOI increased for the three months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the corresponding period in 2016 was evidenced by the 5.9% increase in rental revenues and 2.9% increase in NOI. As occupancy remained relatively consistent, the increase in rental revenues was due to an increase in rental rates from new leases and renewals. Refer to leasing activity below.

Same-store property NOI decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to the corresponding period in 2016 as evidenced by the increase in rental operating costs of 10.1 % and decrease in NOI of 4.3 %. The decrease in same-store NOI was due to an increase in rental operating costs during the six months ended June 30, 2017 when compared to 2016 due to an increase in real estate taxes of $200,000 due to property value reassessments, to an increase in bad debt expense during the quarter of approximately $40,000, an increase in utilities of $60,000 and $200,000 in maintenance costs.

Leasing

Our same-store results is primarily driven by increases in rental rates on new leases and lease renewals and changes in portfolio occupancy. Over the long-term, we believe that the infill nature and strong demographics of our properties provide us with a strategic advantage, allowing us to maintain relatively high occupancy and increase rental rates. We have continued to see signs of improvement for many of our tenants as well as increased interest from prospective tenants for our spaces. While there can be no assurance that these positive signs will continue, we remain cautiously optimistic regarding the improved trends we have seen over the past few years. We believe the locations of our properties and diverse tenant base mitigate the potentially negative impact of a poor economic environment. However, any reduction in our tenants' abilities to pay base rent, percentage rent or other charges, may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2017, we signed 16 comparable leases (2 new leases and 14 renewals) for a total of 83,094 square feet of comparable space leases, at an average rental rate increase of 9.2 % on a cash basis and an average rental increase of 10.5 % on a straight-line basis. Two new office leases for comparable spaces was signed for 6,250 square feet at an average rental rate increase of 29.4% on a cash basis and an average rental rate increase of 31.0 % on a straight-line basis. Renewals for comparable office spaces were signed for 76,844 square feet at an average rental rate increase of 7.8% on a cash basis and increase of 9.2% on a straight-line basis.

Impact of Downtime and Rental Rate Changes

The downtime between a lease expiration and a new lease commencement, typically ranging from 6-24 months, can negatively impact total NOI and same property NOI.   In addition, office leases, both new and lease renewals typically contain upfront rental and /or operating expense abatement periods which delay the cash flow benefits of the lease even after the new lease or renewal has commenced. If we are unable to replace expiring leases with new or renewal leases at rental rates equal to or greater than the expiring rates, rental rate roll downs can also negatively impact total NOI and same property NOI comparisons.  This was the case for all leases entered into prior to 2008 the start of the recession.  Most of our leases were less than seven years and therefore the rental rate roll downs should not have a significant effect on future years. Our geographically diverse portfolio model results in rent roll ups that can

fluctuate widely on a market by market basis; however, given the large volume of leasing activity over the last several years, we estimate that our portfolio, taken as a whole, is currently at market.  Total NOI and same property NOI comparisons for any given period may still fluctuate as a result of rent roll ups and roll downs, however, depending on the leasing activity in individual geographic markets during the respective period.
