Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

September 30, 2015

 

Note 1 - Organization and Background

 

One Liberty Properties, Inc. (“OLP”) was incorporated in 1982 in Maryland.  OLP is a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”).  OLP acquires, owns and manages a geographically diversified portfolio of retail, industrial, flex, health and fitness and other properties, a substantial portion of which are subject to long-term net leases.  As of
 September 30, 2015, OLP owns 120 properties, including seven properties owned by consolidated joint ventures and five properties owned by unconsolidated joint ventures. The 120 properties are located in 31 states.

 

Note 2 — Summary Accounting Policies

 

Principles of Consolidation/Basis of Preparation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for interim reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statement disclosures. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for fair presentation (including normal recurring accruals) have been included. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in OLP’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

 

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of OLP, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, its joint ventures in which the Company, as defined, has a controlling interest, and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) of which the Company is the primary beneficiary.  OLP and its consolidated subsidiaries are hereinafter referred to as the “Company”.  Material intercompany items and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Variable Interest Entities

 

The Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, provides guidance for determining whether an entity is a VIE.  VIEs are defined as entities in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. A VIE is required to be consolidated by its primary beneficiary, which is the party that (i) has the power to control the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) has the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

Note 2 - Summary Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Additionally, the Company assesses the accounting treatment for any interests pursuant to which the Company may have a variable interest as a lessor.  Leases may contain certain protective rights such as the right of sale and the receipt of certain escrow deposits.  In situations where the Company does not have the power over tenant activities that most significantly impact the performance of the property, the Company would not consolidate tenant operations.

 

Investment in Joint Ventures

 

The Company assesses the accounting treatment for each joint venture investment. This assessment includes a review of each joint venture or limited liability company agreement to determine the rights of each party and whether those rights are protective or participating. The agreements typically contain certain protective rights such as the requirement of partner approval to sell, finance or refinance the property and to pay capital expenditures and operating expenditures outside of the approved budget or operating plan. In situations where the Company and its partner, among other things, (i) approve the annual budget, (ii) approve certain expenditures, (iii) prepare or review and approve the joint venture’s tax return before filing, and (iv) approve each lease at a property, the Company does not consolidate the joint venture as the Company considers these to be substantive participation rights that result in shared power over the activities that most significantly impact the performance of the joint venture.

 

The Company accounts for its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures under the equity method of accounting.  All investments in these joint ventures have sufficient equity at risk to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support and, as a group, the holders of the equity at risk have power through voting rights to direct the activities of these ventures. As a result, none of these joint ventures are VIE’s.  In addition, although the Company is the managing member in certain ventures, it does not exercise substantial operating control over these entities, and therefore the entities are not consolidated. These investments are recorded initially at cost, as investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, and subsequently adjusted for their share of equity in earnings, cash contributions and distributions.  None of the joint venture debt is recourse to the Company, subject to standard carve-outs.

 

Properties Held-for-Sale

 

Real estate investments are classified as held-for-sale when management has determined that it has met the applicable criteria.  Real estate investments which are held-for-sale are not depreciated.

 

Tenant Reimbursements

 

Tenant reimbursements represent tenants’ contractual obligations for recoverable real estate taxes and operating expenses and are recognized when earned.

Reclassifications

 

Certain amounts previously reported in the consolidated financial statements have been reclassified in the accompanying consolidated financial statements to conform to the current period’s presentation.

 

Note 3 - Earnings Per Common Share

 

Basic earnings per share was determined by dividing net income allocable to common stockholders for each period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during such period. Net income is also allocated to the unvested restricted stock outstanding during the applicable period, as the restricted stock is entitled to receive dividends and is therefore considered a participating security.  Unvested restricted stock is not allocated net losses and/or any excess of dividends declared over net income; such amounts are allocated entirely to the common stockholders, other than the holders of unvested restricted stock.  The restricted stock units awarded under the Pay-for-Performance program are excluded from the basic earnings per share calculation, as these units are not participating securities (see Note 14).

 

Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other rights exercisable for, or convertible into, common stock were exercised or converted or otherwise resulted in the issuance of common stock that shared in the earnings of the Company.  For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the diluted weighted average number of shares of common stock includes 100,000 shares (of an aggregate of 200,000 shares) of common stock underlying the restricted stock units awarded pursuant to the Pay-For-Performance program.  These 100,000 shares may vest upon satisfaction of the total stockholder return metric. The number of shares that would be issued pursuant to this metric is based on the market price and dividends paid as of the end of each quarterly period assuming the end of that quarterly period was the end of the vesting period.  The remaining 100,000 shares of common stock underlying the restricted stock units awarded under the Pay-For-Performance program are not included during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, as they did not meet the return on capital performance metric during such periods.

(a)         Includes capitalized transaction costs of $263 incurred with this asset acquisition.

(b)         Fair value of the assets previously owned by an unconsolidated joint venture of the Company.  The Company owns 100% of this property as a result of its purchase of its partner’s 50% interest on March 31, 2015.

(c)          Adjustments to finalize the purchase price allocation relating to a property purchased in October 2014.

 

With the exception of the Lakewood, Colorado and the Delport, Missouri properties, the properties purchased by the Company during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 are each net leased and occupied by a single tenant pursuant to leases that expire between 2017 through 2045.  The Lakewood, Colorado property has 29 retail tenant spaces and at September 30, 2015, is 92.0% occupied with leases expiring between 2015 and 2032. The Delport, Missouri property has two retail tenant spaces and at September 30, 2015, is 100% occupied with leases expiring in 2022 and 2024.

 

As a result of the Company’s purchase on March 31, 2015 of its partner’s 50% interest in an unconsolidated joint venture that owns a property in Lincoln, Nebraska, it obtained a controlling financial interest. In accordance with GAAP, the Company had presented the investee in accordance with the equity method for the periods prior to gaining control and ceased equity method of accounting and consolidated the investment at March 31, 2015, the date on which 100% control was obtained.  In consolidating the investment, the Company recorded a purchase price fair value adjustment of $960,000 on the consolidated statements of income, representing the difference between the book value of its preexisting equity investment on the March 31, 2015 purchase date and the fair value of the net assets acquired.

Note 4 - Real Estate Acquisitions (continued)

 

As a result of the 2015 acquisitions, the Company recorded intangible lease assets of $5,780,000 and intangible lease liabilities of $5,335,000 representing the value of the origination costs and acquired leases.  As of September 30, 2015, the weighted average amortization period is 7.1 years for these intangible lease assets and 6.7 years for these intangible lease liabilities. The Company assessed the fair value of the lease intangibles based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize appropriate discount rates and available market information. Such inputs are Level 3 (as defined in Note 15) in the fair value hierarchy. The Company is currently in the process of finalizing the purchase price allocations for the properties acquired during the nine months ended September 30, 2015; therefore the allocations are preliminary and subject to change.

 

Note 5 — Sale and Disposal of Properties, Discontinued Operations and Impairment

 

On January 13, 2015, a consolidated joint venture of the Company sold a property located in Cherry Hill, New Jersey for approximately $16,025,000, net of closing costs.  The sale resulted in a gain of $5,392,000, recorded as Gain on sale of real estate, net, for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. In connection with the sale, the Company paid off the $7,376,000 mortgage balance on this property and incurred a $472,000 swap termination fee (included in Prepayment costs on debt) and a $249,000 write-off of deferred financing costs (included in Amortization and write-off of deferred financing costs). The non-controlling interest’s share of income from the transaction is $1,320,000 and is included in net income attributable to non-controlling interests.

 

On February 3, 2014, the Company sold two properties located in Michigan for a total sales price of $5,177,000, net of closing costs.  At December 31, 2013, the Company recorded a $61,700 impairment charge representing the loss on the sale of these properties. Income from discontinued operations applicable to these properties for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 totaled $13,000 consisting of rental income of $141,000 less real estate expenses of $17,000 and mortgage interest of $111,000.

 

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company determined there were indicators of impairment at its property located in Morrow, Georgia.  The tenant did not renew the lease which expired October 31, 2014, efforts to re-let the property were unsuccessful and the non-recourse mortgage on the property matured on November 1, 2014. Management determined that the undiscounted cash flows in the test for recoverability were less than the property’s carrying amount, and that the fair value of the property was less than its carrying amount.  Accordingly, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $1,093,000 which is included in the accompanying consolidated statement of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.  The property was acquired by the mortgagee on January 6, 2015 through a foreclosure proceeding.

Note 6 — Variable Interest Entities, Contingent Liabilities and Consolidated Joint Ventures

 

Variable Interest Entities — Ground Leases

 

In June 2014, the Company purchased land for $6,510,000 in Sandy Springs, Georgia improved with a 196 unit apartment complex and in March 2015, the Company purchased land for $9,300,000 in Lakemoor, Illinois improved with a 496 unit apartment complex.  With each purchase, the Company simultaneously entered into a long-term triple net ground lease with the owner/operator of the applicable complex.

 

The Company determined that it has a variable interest through its ground leases and the owner/operators are VIEs because their equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support.  Simultaneously with the closing of each acquisition, the owner/operator obtained a mortgage from a third party ($16,230,000 for Sandy Springs and $43,824,000 for Lakemoor) which, together with the Company’s purchase of the land, provided substantially all of the aggregate funds to acquire the complex.  The Company provided this land as collateral for the respective owner/operator’s mortgage loans; accordingly, each land position is subordinated to the applicable mortgage. Other than as described above, no other financial support has been provided by the Company.

 

The Company further determined that for each acquisition it is not the primary beneficiary because the Company does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the owner/operator’s economic performance such as management, operational budgets and other rights, including leasing of the units and therefore, does not consolidate the VIEs for financial statement purposes.  Accordingly, the Company accounts for these investments as land and the revenues from the ground leases as Rental income, net.  Such rental income amounted to $460,000 and $1,166,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively, and $232,000 and $299,000 for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.

 

The following is a summary of the Company’s variable interests in identified VIEs, in which it is not the primary beneficiary, and the aggregate carrying amount and maximum exposure to loss as of September 30, 2015 (amounts in thousands):

Pursuant to the terms of the ground lease for the property in Sandy Springs, Georgia, the owner/operator is obligated to make certain unit renovations as and when units become vacant.  Cash reserves totaling $1,894,000  were received by the Company in conjunction with the purchase of the property in June 2014 to cover such renovation work and other reserve

requirements.  An additional $39,000 of reserves was received by the Company during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015. These cash reserves are held by the Company and disbursed once the renovations have been completed. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and September 30, 2014, the Company disbursed approximately $538,000 and $0, respectively, for renovation costs to the owner/operator. The cash reserve balance at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $1,108,000 and $1,607,000, respectively, and is classified as Restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheets.

 

Consolidated Variable Interest Entity

 

In June 2014, a joint venture in which the Company has a 95% equity interest and a senior preferred equity interest, acquired a property located in Joppa, Maryland.  The Company determined that this joint venture is a VIE as the Company’s voting rights are not proportional to its economic interests, substantially all of the joint venture’s activities are conducted on behalf of the Company and it is the primary beneficiary of the VIE as it has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the joint venture’s performance including management, approval of expenditures, and the obligation to absorb the losses or rights to receive benefits.  Accordingly, the Company consolidates the operations of this joint venture for financial statement purposes.  The joint venture’s creditors do not have recourse to the assets of the Company other than those held by the joint venture.

Note 6 — Variable Interest Entities, Contingent Liabilities and Consolidated Joint Ventures (continued)

 

MCB Real Estate, LLC and its affiliates (“MCB”) are the Company’s joint venture partner in five consolidated joint ventures (including the Joppa, Maryland VIE).  At September 30, 2015, the Company has aggregate equity investments of approximately $19,240,000 in such ventures.

 

A joint venture investment with MCB of $3.1 million owns a property operated as a Pathmark supermarket in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In July 2015, this tenant filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, rejected the lease, and in late September 2015, vacated the property. As a result, the Company wrote off (i) $89,000 of straight line rent and $124,000 of intangible lease liabilies, the net effect of which was an increase in rental income of $35,000, and (ii) $380,000 of tenant origination costs, which is included in depreciation expense. This tenant accounted for approximately 1.3% of the Company’s rental income for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and at September 30, 2015, the mortgage debt on such property is $4,500,000. The Company has determined that no impairment charge is required currently with respect to this property.

 

Distributions by Consolidated Joint Ventures

 

Distributions to each joint venture partner are determined pursuant to the applicable operating agreement and may not be pro rata to the equity interest each partner has in the applicable venture.

 

Note 7 - Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures

 

On March 31, 2015, the Company purchased its partner’s 50% interest in an unconsolidated joint venture for $6,300,000 (see Note 4).

 

In June 2015, the Company entered into a joint venture in which it has a 50% interest, with MCB and an affiliate of The Hampshire Companies. The joint venture purchased a retail center located in Manahawkin, New Jersey for approximately $43,500,000, before closing costs. The purchase was financed with $26,100,000 of new mortgage debt which bears an annual fixed interest rate of 4% and matures in 2025.  At September 30, 2015, the Company’s equity investment in the joint venture is $8,808,000.

 

At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company’s five unconsolidated joint ventures each owned and operated one property. The Company’s equity investment in such unconsolidated joint ventures at such dates totaled $11,273,000 and $4,907,000, respectively. The Company recorded equity in earnings of $347,000 and $311,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively, and equity in earnings of $134,000 and $397,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively. Earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 are net of the Company’s $400,000 share of the acquisition expenses associated with the June 2015 purchase of the Manahawkin, New Jersey property.

Note 8 — Lease Termination Fee Income

 

In March 2015, the Company received a $650,000 lease termination fee from an industrial tenant in a lease buy-out transaction.  In connection with the receipt of this fee, the Company wrote-off $226,000 as an offset to rental income, representing the entire balance of the unbilled rent receivable related to the sole tenant at this property.  The Company re-leased this property simultaneously with the termination of the lease.

 

In June 2014, the Company received a $1,269,000 lease termination fee from a retail tenant in a lease buy-out transaction.  In connection with the receipt of this fee, the Company wrote-off $150,000 as an offset to rental income, representing the entire balance of the unbilled rent receivable and the intangible lease asset related to this property.  The Company re-leased this property simultaneously with the termination of the lease.

 

In October 2015, the Company received a $1,286,000 lease termination fee from a retail tenant in a lease buy-out transaction.  In connection with this transaction, the Company, during the three months ending December 31, 2015, will write off $179,000 as an offset to rental income, representing the entire balance of the unbilled rent receivable related to this tenant at the property.  The Company re-leased substantially all of such space.

 

Note 9 - Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its tenants to make required rent payments.  If the financial condition of a specific tenant were to deteriorate resulting in an impairment of its ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.  At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there was no balance in allowance for doubtful accounts.

 

The Company records bad debt expense as a reduction of rental income. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company did not incur any bad debt expense.

 

Note 10 - Line of Credit

 

On December 31, 2014, the Company entered into an amendment to its $75,000,000 credit facility with Manufacturers & Traders Trust Company, VNB New York, LLC, Bank Leumi USA and Israel Discount Bank of New York, which, among other things, extended the facility’s maturity from March 31, 2015 to December 31, 2018, decreased the minimum required average bank deposit balances to $3 million and eliminated the 4.75% interest rate floor. Under the amendment, the interest rate equals the one month LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin which ranges from 175 basis points to 300 basis points depending on the ratio of the Company’s total debt to total value, as determined pursuant to the facility.  An unused facility fee of .25% per annum applies to the facility.  The average interest rate on the facility for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was approximately 1.93%.  Prior to the amendment, the interest rate was 4.75% per annum.  In connection with the amendment, the Company incurred a $562,500 commitment fee which is being amortized over the remaining term of the facility.  At September 30, 2015 and November 3, 2015, there were outstanding balances of $35,750,000 and

Note 15 - Fair Value Measurements

 

The Company measures the fair value of financial instruments based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.  As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, a fair value hierarchy distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions.  In accordance with the fair value hierarchy, Level 1 assets/liabilities are valued based on quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets, Level 2 assets/liabilities are valued based on quoted prices in active markets for similar instruments, on quoted prices in less active or inactive markets, or on other “observable” market inputs and Level 3 assets/liabilities are valued based significantly on “unobservable” market inputs.

 

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, escrow, deposits, receivables, certain other assets, dividends payable, and accrued expenses and other liabilities (excluding interest rate swaps), are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis, but are considered to be recorded at amounts that approximate fair value.

 

At September 30, 2015, the $336,157,000 estimated fair value of the Company’s mortgages payable is more than their carrying value by approximately $10,556,000 assuming a blended market interest rate of 4.2% based on the 9.1 year weighted average remaining term of the mortgages.  At December 31, 2014, the $300,541,000 estimated fair value of the Company’s mortgages payable is more than their carrying value by approximately $8,492,000 assuming a blended market interest rate of 4.5% based on the 9.1 year weighted average remaining term of the mortgages.

 

At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the $35,750,000 and $13,250,000, respectively, carrying amount of the Company’s line of credit approximates its fair value.

 

The fair value of the Company’s mortgages payable and line of credit are estimated using unobservable inputs such as available market information and discounted cash flow analysis based on borrowing rates the Company believes it could obtain with similar terms and maturities. These fair value measurements fall within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value.  The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

Available-for-sale securities

 

At September 30, 2015, the Company’s available-for-sale securities included a $31,000 investment in equity securities (included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets). The aggregate cost of these securities was $5,300 and at September 30, 2015, the unrealized gain was $25,700.  Such unrealized gains are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the consolidated balance sheets.  Fair values are approximated based on current market quotes from financial sources that track such securities.

 

In May 2014, the Company sold to Gould Investors L.P., a related party, 37,081 shares of BRT Realty Trust, a related party, for $266,000 (based on the average of the closing prices for the 30 days preceding the sale).  The cost of these shares was $132,000 and the Company realized a gain on sale of $134,000, of which $132,000 was reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive loss on the consolidated balance sheets into earnings.

Note 15 - Fair Value Measurements (continued)

 

Derivative financial instruments

 

The Company’s objective in using interest rate swaps is to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

 

Fair values are approximated using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of the derivatives. 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.

 

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 it use Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparty.  As of September 30, 2015, the Company has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its derivatives.  As a result, the Company determined that its derivative valuation is classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

As of September 30, 2015, the Company had entered into 24 interest rate derivatives, all of which were interest rate swaps, related to 24 outstanding mortgage loans with an aggregate $117,401,000 notional amount and mature between 2016 and 2027 (weighted average remaining maturity of 7.6 years).  Such interest rate swaps, all of which were designated as cash flow hedges, converted LIBOR based variable rate mortgages to fixed annual rate mortgages (with interest rates ranging from 3.55% to 5.75% and a weighted average interest rate of 4.66% at September 30, 2015).  The fair value of the Company’s derivatives designated as hedging instruments in asset and liability positions reflected as other assets or other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets were $0 and $5,705,000, respectively, at September 30, 2015, and $27,000 and $3,139,000, respectively, at December 31, 2014.

 

Three of the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures, in which wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company are 50% partners, had two interest rate derivatives outstanding at September 30, 2015 with an aggregate $11,050,000 notional amount.  These interest rate swaps, which were designated as cash flow hedges, have interest rates of 3.49% and 5.81% and mature between April 2018 and March 2022.

No gain or loss was recognized with respect to hedge ineffectiveness or to amounts excluded from effectiveness testing on the Company’s cash flow hedges for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company terminated one of its interest rate swaps, in connection with the sale of its Cherry Hill, New Jersey property, and accelerated the reclassification of amounts in other comprehensive loss to earnings as a result of the hedged forecasted transactions being terminated. The accelerated amount was a loss of $472,000 and is included in Prepayment costs on debt on the Company’s consolidated statements of income.  During the twelve months ending September 30, 2016, the Company estimates an additional $2,272,000 will be reclassified from other comprehensive income (loss) as an increase to interest expense.

 

The derivative agreements in effect at September 30, 2015 provide that if the wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company which is a party to the agreement defaults or is capable of being declared in default on any of its indebtedness, then a default can be declared on such subsidiary’s derivative obligation. In addition, the Company is a party to one of the derivative agreements and if there is a default by the subsidiary on the loan subject to the derivative agreement to which the Company is a party and if there are swap breakage losses on account of the derivative being terminated early, then the Company could be held liable for such swap breakage losses, if any.

 

As of September 30, 2015, the fair value of the derivatives in a liability position, including accrued interest and excluding any adjustments for nonperformance risk, was approximately $6,101,000.  In the unlikely event that the Company breaches any of the contractual provisions of the derivative contracts, it would be required to settle its obligations thereunder at their termination liability value of $6,101,000.  This termination liability value, net of $396,000 adjustments for nonperformance risk, or $5,705,000, is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2015.

Note 16 - New Accounting Pronouncements

 

In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16, Business Combinations: Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement Period Adjustments, which eliminates the requirement for an acquirer in a business combination to account for measurement period adjustments retrospectively. Instead, acquirers must recognize measurement-period adjustments during the period in which they determine the amounts, including the effect on earnings of any amounts they would have recorded in previous periods if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. The effective date of the standard will be for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the new guidance to determine the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest - Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, which amends the balance sheet presentation for debt issuance costs. Under the amended guidance, a company will present unamortized debt issuance costs as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability. The guidance is to be applied on a retrospective basis, and is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption being permitted.  The Company is currently evaluating the new guidance to determine the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis, which amends the current consolidation guidance, including introducing a separate consolidation analysis specific to limited partnerships and other similar entities. Under this analysis, limited partnerships and other similar entities will be considered a VIE unless the limited partners hold substantive kick-out rights or participating rights. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. The Company has not elected early adoption and is currently evaluating the new guidance to determine the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-01, Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items, which simplifies income statement presentation by eliminating extraordinary items from US GAAP. The ASU retains current presentation and disclosure requirements for an event or transaction that is of an unusual nature or of a type that indicates infrequency of occurrence. Transactions that meet both criteria would now also follow such presentation and disclosure requirements. The ASU is effective in annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015.  Early adoption is permitted; however, adoption must occur at the beginning of an annual period.  An entity can elect to apply the guidance prospectively or retrospectively.  The Company had elected early adoption for the year ended December 31, 2014, and its adoption did not have any impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 16 - New Accounting Pronouncements (continued)

 

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), which provides guidance on management’s responsibility in evaluating whether there is substantial doubt about a company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures.  For each reporting period, management will be required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about a company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date the financial statements are issued.  The amendments in this update are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter.  Early application is permitted.  The Company has elected early adoption for the year ending December 31, 2015, and its adoption is not expected to have any impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which provides guidance for revenue recognition. The core principle of the new guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Additionally, the guidance requires improved disclosures to help users of financial statements better understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue that is recognized.  The effective date of this standard will be for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, after December 15, 2017.  Early adoption is permitted after December 15, 2016.  Entities have the option of using either a full retrospective or a modified approach to adopt the guidance in the ASU.  The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

Note 17 - Subsequent Events

 

Subsequent events have been evaluated and except as disclosed in Note 8 (Lease Termination Fee Income), there were no other events relative to the Company’s consolidated financial statements that require additional disclosure.

Acquisitions, Financings and Other Developments During the Three Months Ended September 30, 2015

 

We acquired two properties for an aggregate purchase price of $35.8 million (including new mortgage debt of $12.4 million). These acquisitions contributed $242,000 of rental income during the three months ended September 30, 2015. We estimate that commencing October 1, 2015, the rental income (calculated on a straight-line basis) from these two properties will be $650,000 per quarter.

 

We obtained $25.2 million from mortgage financings (including $12.4 million in connection with a property acquired in September 2015). The weighted average interest rate on these mortgages is 4.1% and the weighted average remaining term is 9.3 years.

 

A tenant that leases a property operated as a Pathmark supermarket in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, rejected the lease and in late September 2015, vacated the property.  As a result, the Company wrote off (i) $89,000 of straight line rent and $124,000 of intangible lease liabilies, the net effect of which was an increase in rental income of $35,000, and (ii) $380,000 of tenant origination costs, which is included in depreciation expense. This tenant accounted for approximately 1.3% of our rental income for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and at September 30, 2015, the mortgage debt on such property is $4.5 million. We are in the process of seeking a replacement

tenant and have determined that no impairment charge is required currently with respect to this property.

 

Developments Subsequent to September 30, 2015

 

In October 2015, we received a $1.29 million lease termination fee from a retail tenant in a lease buy-out transaction.  In connection with this transaction, during the three months ending December 31, 2015, we will recognize the lease termination fee income and write off $179,000 as an offset to rental income, representing the entire balance of the unbilled rent receivable related to this tenant at the property.  We have re-leased substantially all of such space.

 

Overview

 

We are a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust, organized in Maryland in 1982.  We acquire, own and manage a geographically diversified portfolio of retail (including furniture stores, restaurants, office supply stores and supermarkets), industrial, flex, health and fitness and other properties, a substantial portion of which are leased under long-term net leases.  As of September 30, 2015, we own 120 properties (including seven properties owned by consolidated joint ventures and five properties owned by unconsolidated joint ventures) located in 31 states.  Based on square footage, our occupancy rate at September 30, 2015 is approximately 98.2%.

 

We face a variety of risks and challenges in our business. We, among other things, face the possibility we will not be able to acquire accretive properties on acceptable terms, lease our properties on terms favorable to us or at all, our tenants may not be able to pay their rental and other obligations, and we may not be able to renew or relet, on acceptable terms, leases that are expiring or terminating.

 

We seek to manage the risk of our real property portfolio by diversifying among types of properties and industries, locations, tenants and scheduled lease expirations. We monitor the risk of tenant non-payments through a variety of approaches tailored to the applicable situation. Generally, based on our assessment of the credit risk posed by our tenants, we monitor a tenant’s financial condition through one or more of the following actions: reviewing tenant financial statements, obtaining other tenant related financial information, regular contact with tenant’s representatives, tenant credit checks and regular management reviews of our tenants.

 

In acquiring properties, we balance an evaluation of the terms of the leases and the credit of the existing tenants with a fundamental analysis of the real estate to be acquired, which analysis takes into account, among other things, the estimated value of the property, local demographics and the ability to re-rent or dispose of the property on favorable terms upon lease expiration or early termination.

 

Further, we are sensitive to the risks facing the retail industry as a result of the growth of e-commerce.  We are addressing this exposure by seeking to acquire properties that we believe capitalize on e-commerce activities, such as e-commerce distribution and warehousing facilities - however, we intend to continue to acquire retail properties as we deem appropriate.

 

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. To qualify as a REIT, we must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that we distribute currently at least 90% of ordinary taxable income to our stockholders.  We intend to comply with these requirements and to

 

28



Table of Contents

 

maintain our REIT status.

 

Our 2015 contractual rental income is approximately $56.9 million and represents, after giving effect to any abatements, concessions or adjustments, the base rent payable to us in calendar year 2015 under leases in effect at September 30, 2015. The 2015 contractual rental income excludes approximately $1.4 million of straight-line rent, amortization of approximately $648,000 of intangibles, and our share of the rental income payable to our unconsolidated joint ventures, which in 2015 will be approximately $2.0 million.

 

The following table sets forth scheduled lease expirations of leases for our properties (excluding unconsolidated joint ventures) as of September 30, 2015 for the calendar years indicated below:

the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively, generated by nine properties acquired in 2014 and seven properties acquired in 2015. Offsetting these increases are the (i) inclusion, in the three and nine months ending September 30, 2014, of $1.1 million and $3.2 million, respectively, from three properties that were sold or disposed of from October 2014 through mid-January 2015 (including the sale, for substantial gains, of the Parsippany and Cherry Hill, New Jersey properties), and (ii) $226,000 write-off against rental income, in the nine months ended September 30, 2015, of the entire balance of unbilled rent receivable related to the March 2015 lease termination fee described below.

 

Tenant reimbursements.  Real estate tax and operating expense reimbursements in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 increased by (i) $266,000 and $735,000, respectively, from seven properties acquired since May 2014 and (ii) $96,000 and $269,000, respectively, due to to net increases from various properties. Offsetting the increases in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 were decreases of $162,000 and $274,000, respectively, due to the January 2015 sale of the Cherry Hill, New Jersey property.

 

Lease termination fee.   We received lease termination fees of $650,000 and $1.27 million in lease buy-out transactions in March 2015 and June 2014, respectively.  We re-leased the properties simultaneously with the lease terminations.

Depreciation and amortization.  The three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 include increases of $977,000 and $1.9 million (including a $380,000 write-off of tenant origination costs related to the Pathmark supermarket), respectively, related to properties we acquired in 2014 and 2015 and $51,000 and $173,000, respectively, from amortization of property improvements and leasing commissions. Included in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 is $260,000 and $894,000, respectively, of expense related to three properties that were sold or disposed of from October 2014 through mid-January 2015 (including the Parsippany and Cherry Hill, New Jersey properties).

Table of Contents

 

General and administrative.  Contributing to the change in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 were increases of: (i) $132,000 and $375,000, respectively, in non-cash compensation expense related to the increase in the number of restricted stock awards granted in 2015 and the higher fair value of such awards at the time of grant; and (ii) $133,000 and $309,000, respectively, in compensation expense due to higher compensation levels.

 

Real estate expenses.  The increases in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 are due primarily to increases of $337,000 and $862,000, respectively, from eleven of the properties acquired since May 2014, substantially all of which is rebilled to tenants, and increases of $33,000 and $115,000, respectively, in brokerage and professional fees. The increases were offset by decreases of $34,000 and $125,000, respectively, in expenses at our Cherry Hill, New Jersey property as a result of its sale in January 2015.

 

Real estate acquisition costs.  These costs, which include acquisition fees (including a fee paid to our joint venture partner), legal and other transactional costs and expenses, increased during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 primarily in connection with the acquisition of a property in February 2015.

 

Impairment loss.  We recorded this charge in 2014 with respect to our Morrow, Georgia property - the tenant did not renew its lease which expired on October 31, 2014, efforts to re-let the property were unsuccessful and the non-recourse mortgage on the property matured November 1, 2014.  The property was acquired by the mortgagee in January 2015 through a foreclosure proceeding.

adjustment, representing the difference between the book value of the preexisting equity investment on the March 31, 2015 purchase date and the fair value of the investment.

 

Prepayment costs on debt. These costs result primarily from the sale of the Cherry Hill, New Jersey property, as we incurred a swap breakage fee in connection with our payoff, prior to maturity, of the related mortgage. Additionally, we paid off two other mortgages prior to their respective maturities and incurred prepayment charges in connection with their payoffs.

 

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures.  The decrease in the nine months ended September 30, 2015 is due to our $400,000 share of the acquisition expenses associated with the June 2015 purchase of the Manahawkin, New Jersey retail center.  The increase in the three months ended September 30, 2015 is due primarily to earnings from this property.

 

Gain on sale — investment in BRT Realty Trust.  In May 2014, we sold to Gould Investors L.P., a related party, our 37,081 shares of BRT Realty Trust, a related party, for $266,000.  The cost of these shares was $132,000 and we realized a gain on sale of $134,000.

The increase in mortgage interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2015 is due to the increase in the principal amount of mortgage debt outstanding offset by the decrease in the average interest rate and the decrease in such expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2015  is due to the decrease in the average interest rate offset by the increase in the principal amount of mortgage debt outstanding. The average interest rate decreased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 due to the financing (including financings effectuated in connection with acquisitions) and refinancing in 2014 and 2015 of $126.5 million of gross new mortgage debt with a weighted average interest rate of approximately 4.3%.  The increase in the average amount of mortgage debt outstanding is due to the incurrence of mortgage debt of $46.1 million in connection with properties acquired in 2014 and 2015 and the financing of $49.5 million, net of refinanced amounts, in connection with properties acquired prior to 2014. The increase in the average amount outstanding was partially offset by the payoffs of three mortgages and the foreclosure of one mortgage in the nine months ended September 30, 2015 totaling $18.6 million.

 

Amortization and write-off of deferred financing costs.  The increase in the nine months ended September 30, 2015 is primarily due to the write-off of $249,000 relating to the sale of the Cherry Hill, New Jersey property. Offsetting the increase is a $160,500 ($53,500 quarterly) decrease associated with the extension of the credit facility in December 2014.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our sources of liquidity and capital are cash flow from operations, cash and cash equivalents, borrowings under our revolving credit facility, refinancing existing mortgage loans, obtaining mortgage loans secured by our unencumbered properties, issuance of equity securities and property sales.  Our available liquidity at November 2, 2015, was approximately $58.3 million, including approximately $6.5 million of cash and cash equivalents (net of the credit facility’s required $3 million deposit maintenance balance) and $51.8 million available under our revolving credit facility.

 

Liquidity and Financing

 

We expect to meet substantially all of our operating cash requirements (including dividend and mortgage amortization payments) from cash flow from operations.  To the extent that cash flow from operations is inadequate to cover all of our operating needs, we will be required to use our available cash and cash equivalents, or draw on our credit line (to the extent permitted) to satisfy operating requirements.

 

At September 30, 2015, excluding mortgage indebtedness of our unconsolidated joint ventures, we had 64 outstanding mortgages payable secured by 87 properties, in aggregate principal amount of $325.6 million.  These mortgages represent first liens on individual real estate investments with an aggregate carrying value of $511.6 million, before accumulated depreciation of $62.3 million.  After giving effect to interest rate swap agreements, the mortgage payments bear interest at fixed rates ranging from 3.13% to 7.81% (a 4.76% weighted average interest rate) and mature between 2016 and 2037 (a 9.1 year weighted average remaining term).

 

The following table sets forth, as of September 30, 2015, information with respect to our mortgage debt (excluding mortgage debt of our unconsolidated joint ventures), that is payable from October 1, 2015 through December 31, 2019:

At September 30, 2015, the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures had first mortgages on four properties with outstanding balances aggregating $37.0 million, bearing interest at rates ranging from 3.49% to 5.81% (a 3.91% weighted average interest rate) and maturing between 2018 and 2025.

 

We intend to make debt amortization payments from operating cash flow and, though no assurance can be given that we will be successful in this regard, generally intend to refinance or extend the mortgage loans which mature in 2016 through 2017.  We intend to repay the amounts not refinanced or extended from our existing funds and sources of funds, including our available cash and our credit line (to the extent available).

 

To generate additional liquidity, we continuously seek to refinance existing mortgage loans on terms we deem acceptable.  Additionally, in the ordinary course of business, we sell properties when we determine that it is in our best interests, which also generates additional liquidity.  Further, since each of our encumbered properties is subject to a non-recourse mortgage (with standard carve-outs), if our in-house evaluation of the market value of such property is less than the principal balance outstanding on the mortgage loan, we may determine to convey, in certain circumstances, such property to the mortgagee to terminate our mortgage obligations, including payment of interest, principal and real estate taxes, with respect to such property.

 

Typically, we use funds from our credit facility to acquire a property and, thereafter secure long-term, fixed rate mortgage debt on such property. We apply the proceeds from the mortgage loan to repay borrowings under the credit facility, thus providing us with the ability to re-borrow under the credit facility for the acquisition of additional properties.

 

Credit Facility

 

We can borrow up to $75 million pursuant to our revolving credit facility which is available to us for the acquisition of commercial real estate, repayment of mortgage debt, property improvements and general working capital purposes; provided, that if used for property improvements and working capital purposes, the amount outstanding for such purposes will not exceed the lesser of $15 million and 15% of the borrowing base and if used for working capital purposes, will not exceed $10 million. The facility matures December 31, 2018 and bears interest equal to the one month LIBOR rate plus the applicable margin. The applicable margin ranges from 175 basis points if our ratio of total debt to total value (as calculated pursuant to the facility) is equal to or less than 50%, increasing to a maximum of 300 basis points if such ratio is greater than 65%. There is an unused facility fee of 0.25% per annum on the difference between the outstanding loan balance and $75 million. The credit facility requires the maintenance of $3 million in average deposit balances.

 

The terms of our revolving credit facility include restrictions and covenants which, among other things, may limit the incurrence of liens, and which require compliance with financial ratios relating to, among other things, the minimum amount of tangible net worth, the minimum amount of debt service coverage, the minimum amount of fixed charge coverage, the maximum

amount of debt to value, the minimum level of net income, certain investment limitations and the minimum value of unencumbered properties and the number of such properties. Net proceeds received from the sale, financing or refinancing of properties are generally required to be used to repay amounts outstanding under our credit facility. At September  30, 2015, we were in compliance with the covenants under this facility.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We are not a party to any material off-balance sheet arrangements.  See Note 6 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements regarding off-balance sheet arrangements on our properties located in Sandy Springs, Georgia and Lakemoor, Illinois.

 

Funds from Operations and Adjusted Funds from Operations

 

We compute funds from operations, or FFO, in accordance with the “White Paper on Funds From Operations” issued by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) and NAREIT’s related guidance. FFO is defined in the White Paper as net income (computed in accordance with generally accepting accounting principles), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization, plus impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships, joint ventures and non-controlling interests. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis.  Since the NAREIT White Paper only provides guidelines for computing FFO, the computation of FFO may vary from one REIT to another. We compute adjusted funds from operations, or AFFO, by deducting from FFO our straight-line rent accruals, amortization of lease intangibles, and lease termination fee income and adding back the amortization of restricted stock compensation, amortization of costs in connection with our financing activities (including our share of our unconsolidated joint ventures) and debt prepayment costs.

 

We believe that FFO and AFFO are useful and standard supplemental measures of the operating performance for equity REITs and are used frequently by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in evaluating equity REITs, many of which present FFO and AFFO when reporting their operating results.  FFO and AFFO are intended to exclude GAAP historical cost depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, which assures that the value of real estate assets diminish predictability over time.  In fact, real estate values have historically risen and fallen with market conditions.  As a result, we believe that FFO and AFFO provide a performance measure that when compared year over year, should reflect the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, interest costs and other matters without the inclusion of depreciation and amortization, providing a perspective that may not be necessarily apparent from net income.  We also consider FFO and AFFO to be useful to us in evaluating potential property acquisitions.

 

FFO and AFFO do not represent net income or cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP.  FFO and AFFO should not be considered to be an alternative to net income as a reliable measure of our operating performance; nor should FFO and AFFO be considered an alternative to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities (as defined by GAAP) as measures of liquidity.

Table of Contents

 

FFO and AFFO do not measure whether cash flow is sufficient to fund all of our cash needs, including principal amortization, capital improvements and distributions to stockholders. FFO and AFFO do not represent cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as defined by GAAP.

 

Management recognizes that there are limitations in the use of FFO and AFFO.  In evaluating our performance, management is careful to examine GAAP measures such as net income and cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

Our primary market risk exposure is the effect of changes in interest rates on the interest cost of draws on our revolving variable rate credit facility and the effect of changes in the fair value of our interest rate swap agreements.  Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political considerations and other factors beyond our control.

 

We use interest rate swaps to limit interest rate risk. These swaps are used for hedging purposes - not for trading purposes.

 

At September 30, 2015, we had 26 interest rate swap agreements outstanding (including two held by three of our unconsolidated joint ventures). The fair market value of the interest rate swaps is dependent upon existing market interest rates and swap spreads, which change over time.  As of September 30, 2015, if there had been a 100 basis point: (i) increase in forward interest rates, the fair market value of the interest rate swaps would have increased by approximately $7.9 million and the net unrealized loss on derivative instruments would have decreased by approximately $7.9 million; and (ii) decrease in forward interest rates, the fair market value of the interest rate swaps would have decreased by approximately $8.0 million

and the net unrealized loss on derivative instruments would have increased by approximately $8.0 million. These changes would not have any impact on our net income or cash.

 

Our mortgage debt, after giving effect to interest rate swap agreements, bears interest at fixed rates and accordingly, the effect of changes in interest rates would not impact the amount of interest expense that we incur under these mortgages.

 

Our variable credit rate facility is sensitive to interest rate changes.  Based on the interest rate in effect and the $35.8 million credit facility balance outstanding as of September 30, 2015, a 100 basis point: (i) increase of the interest rate on this facility would increase our related interest costs by approximately $357,500 per year; and (ii) decrease of the interest rate would decrease our related interest costs by approximately $65,000 per year.

 

The fair market value of our long-term debt is estimated based on discounting future cash flows at interest rates that our management believes reflect the risks associated with long term debt of similar risk and duration.

 

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

 

Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) are effective.

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act) during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
