Joe Margolis, CEO of Extra Space Storage Inc., commented: “We successfully completed our transformative merger with Life Storage in the quarter, and we have smoothly integrated its stores, team and systems onto the Extra Space Storage platform.  We have reached our anticipated G&A expense savings run rate from the merger.  We have also started optimizing pricing and marketing at the Life Storage properties, and we are on pace to reach our total synergies run rate during the first quarter of 2024.

Operationally, we maintained strong same-store occupancy in the quarter, averaging 94.4%, and increased same-store revenue 1.9%.  We remain confident in the durable nature of self-storage and the strength of the Extra Space portfolio, which was enhanced through our recent merger with Life Storage.”

Per share amounts may not recalculate due to rounding.

(2)

Adjustment to account for the difference between the number of shares used to calculate earnings per share and the number of shares used to calculate FFO per share. Earnings per share is calculated using the two-class method, which uses a lower number of shares than the calculation for FFO per share and Core FFO per share, which are calculated assuming full redemption of all OP units as described in note (3).

(3)

Extra Space Storage LP (the “Operating Partnership”) has outstanding preferred and common Operating Partnership units (“OP units”). These OP units can be redeemed for cash or, at the Company’s election, shares of the Company’s common stock. Redemption of all OP units for common stock has been assumed for purposes of calculating the weighted average number of shares — diluted, as presented above. The computation of weighted average number of shares — diluted, for FFO per share and Core FFO per share also includes the effect of share-based compensation plans.

Bridge Loans:

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company originated $78.8 million in bridge loans and also sold $78.8 million in bridge loans, resulting in outstanding balances of approximately $534.8 million at quarter end. The Company has an additional $110.2 million in bridge loans that closed subsequent to quarter end or are under agreement to close in 2023 and an additional $171.9 million under agreement to close in 2024.  Additional details related to the Company’s loan activity and balances held are included in the supplemental financial information published on the Company’s Investor Relations website at https://ir.extraspace.com/.

Property Management:

As of September 30, 2023, the Company managed 1,282 stores for third-party owners and 471 stores owned in unconsolidated joint ventures, for a total of 1,753 stores under management.  The Company is the largest self-storage management company in the United States.

Balance Sheet:

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company completed multiple capital transactions in conjunction with the Life Storage Merger. The Company retired $1.2 billion in balances on Life Storage’s line of credit which included $375.0 million that Life Storage used to pay off its private placement notes in connection with the closing.  The Company also paid off and/or defeased $32.0 million in secured loans.  These transactions were funded by draws on the Company’s revolving credit facility and on an undrawn term loan within the credit facility of $1.0 billion, which was added to the credit facility in the second quarter of 2023.

On July 25, 2023, the Company completed the Exchange Offers related to Life Storage’s 3.5% Senior Notes due 2026, its 3.9% Senior Notes due 2027, its 4.0% Senior Notes due 2029, its 2.2% Senior Notes due 2030 and its 2.4% Senior Notes due 2031.  Upon the closing of the Exchange Offers, a total of $2.35 billion of Life Storage’s senior notes were exchanged for senior notes of the same tenor of Extra Space Storage L.P. Remaining Life Storage senior note balances which were not exchanged total $48.9 million and no longer have any financial reporting requirements or covenants.

Additional details of the Exchange Offers, including participation by senior note tranche, can be found in the Company’s press release and Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on July 25, 2023.

Upon completion of the Exchange Offers, on July 25, 2023, S&P Global upgraded all of its ratings on the Company to BBB+ stable. The upgrade resulted in reductions of the interest rate spreads of the various tranches of debt in the Company’s credit facility. Revised terms of the credit facility, as well as terms of the exchanged senior notes are included in the detailed debt schedule in the Company’s supplemental financial information published on the Company’s Investor Relations website at https://ir.extraspace.com/.

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company did not issue any shares on its ATM program, and it currently has $800.0 million available for issuance. Likewise, the Company did not repurchase any shares of common stock using its stock repurchase program during the quarter, and as of September 30, 2023, the Company had authorization to purchase up to an additional $337.0 million under the program. 

As of September 30, 2023, the Company’s percentage of fixed-rate debt to total debt was 70.3%. Net of the impact of variable rate receivables, the effective fixed-rate debt to total debt was 75.1%.  The weighted average interest rates of the Company’s fixed and variable-rate debt were 3.6% and 6.4%, respectively. The combined weighted average interest rate was 4.4% with a weighted average maturity of approximately 4.7 years.

Dividends:

On July 19, 2023, the Company paid a dividend of $1.01 per share to stockholders of record at the close of business on July 13, 2023, in conjunction with the Life Storage Merger. 

On September 29, 2023, the Company paid a third quarter common stock dividend of $0.61 per share to stockholders of record at the close of business on September 15, 2023.

The pre-closing merger dividend was attributed to the total amount paid for the third quarter, so that between the pre-closing merger dividend and the September 29, 2023 quarterly dividend, Extra Space stockholders received a total dividend of $1.62 per share, consistent with the amount that the Company’s board of directors declared for the previous quarter and would have otherwise declared for the entire third quarter but for the Life Storage Merger closing.

Certain information set forth in this release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning the benefits of store acquisitions, developments, favorable market conditions, our outlook and estimates for the year, statements concerning the impact of the Life Storage Merger and other statements concerning our plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events, future revenues or performance, capital expenditures, financing needs, the competitive landscape, plans or intentions relating to acquisitions and developments, estimated hurricane-related insurance claims and other information that is not historical information. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “anticipates,” or “intends,” or the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy. We may also make additional forward-looking statements from time to time. All such subsequent forward-looking statements, whether written or oral, by us or on our behalf, are also expressly qualified by these cautionary statements. There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in or contemplated by this release. Any forward-looking statements should be considered in light of the risks referenced in the “Risk Factors” section included in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Such factors include, but are not limited to:

adverse changes in general economic conditions, the real estate industry and the markets in which we operate;
failure to realize the expected benefits of the Life Storage Merger;
the risk that Life Storage’s business will not be fully integrated successfully or that such integration may be more difficult, time-consuming or costly than expected, including our ability to retain and hire key personnel;
the uncertainty of expected future financial performance and results of the combined company following completion of the Life Storage Merger;
failure to close pending acquisitions and developments on expected terms, or at all;
the effect of competition from new and existing stores or other storage alternatives, including increased or unanticipated competition for our or Life Storage’s properties, which could cause rents and occupancy rates to decline;
potential liability for uninsured losses and environmental contamination;
the impact of the regulatory environment as well as national, state and local laws and regulations, including, without limitation, those governing real estate investment trusts (“REITs”), tenant reinsurance and other aspects of our business, which could adversely affect our results;
our ability to recover losses under our insurance policies;
disruptions in credit and financial markets and resulting difficulties in raising capital or obtaining credit at reasonable rates or at all, which could impede our ability to grow;
our reliance on information technologies, which are vulnerable to, among other things, attack from computer viruses and malware, hacking, cyberattacks and other unauthorized access or misuse, any of which could adversely affect our business and results;
increases in interest rates;

All forward-looking statements are based upon our current expectations and various assumptions. Our expectations, beliefs and projections are expressed in good faith and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them, but there can be no assurance that management’s expectations, beliefs and projections will result or be achieved.

Definition of FFO:

FFO provides relevant and meaningful information about the Company’s operating performance that is necessary, along with net income and cash flows, for an understanding of the Company’s operating results. The Company believes FFO is a meaningful disclosure as a supplement to net income. Net income assumes that the values of real estate assets diminish predictably over time as reflected through depreciation and amortization expenses. The values of real estate assets fluctuate due to market conditions and the Company believes FFO more accurately reflects the value of the Company’s real estate assets. FFO is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“NAREIT”) as net income computed in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), excluding gains or losses on sales of operating stores and impairment write downs of depreciable real estate assets, plus depreciation and amortization related to real estate and after adjustments to record unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures on the same basis. The Company believes that to further understand the Company’s performance, FFO should be considered along with the reported net income and cash flows in accordance with GAAP, as presented in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. FFO should not be considered a replacement of net income computed in accordance with GAAP.

For informational purposes, the Company also presents Core FFO.  Core FFO excludes revenues and expenses not core to our operations and transaction costs.  It also includes certain costs associated with the Life Storage Merger including transition costs, non-cash interest related to the fair value of debt and amortization of other intangibles, net of tax benefit.  Although the Company’s calculation of Core FFO differs from NAREIT’s definition of FFO and may not be comparable to that of other REITs and real estate companies, the Company believes it provides a meaningful supplemental measure of operating performance. The Company believes that by excluding revenues and expenses not core to our operations and non-cash interest charges, stockholders and potential investors are presented with an indicator of our operating performance that more closely achieves the objectives of the real estate industry in presenting FFO. Core FFO by the Company should not be considered a replacement of the NAREIT definition of FFO. The computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs or real estate companies that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indication of the Company’s performance, as an alternative to net cash flow from operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or as an indicator of the Company’s ability to make cash distributions.

Definition of Same-Store:

The Company’s same-store pool for the periods presented consists of 914 stores that are wholly-owned and operated and that were stabilized by the first day of the earliest calendar year presented.  The Company considers a store to be stabilized once it has been open for three years or has sustained average square foot occupancy of 80.0% or more for one calendar year. The Company believes that by providing same-store results from a stabilized pool of stores, with accompanying operating metrics including, but not limited to occupancy, rental revenue (growth), operating expenses (growth), net operating income (growth), etc., stockholders and potential investors are able to evaluate operating performance without the effects of non-stabilized occupancy levels, rent levels, expense levels, acquisitions or completed developments.  Same-store results should not be used as a basis for future same-store performance or for the performance of the Company’s stores as a whole. No modification has been made to the same-store pool to include any assets acquired from Life Storage.
