Insights
The financial results of Agree Realty Corporation indicate a robust performance in the retail net lease sector. The company's strategy of investing in a diversified portfolio of retail properties has yielded a year-over-year increase in Core Funds from Operations (Core FFO) and Adjusted Funds from Operations (AFFO) per share. These metrics are crucial as they provide clearer insights into the actual operating performance of a real estate investment trust (REIT) by excluding the effects of non-recurring items and certain GAAP measures that may not accurately reflect the cash generated by the business.
The increase in dividends, both quarterly and annually, signals confidence in the company's earnings stability and growth prospects. This is further supported by the company's low net debt to recurring EBITDA ratio, which at 4.3 times proforma, is indicative of a healthy balance sheet. The leverage ratio is particularly important for investors as it provides a measure of the company's financial risk and its ability to meet its debt obligations.
The use of an at-the-market (ATM) equity program to raise capital is a flexible and cost-effective strategy, allowing the company to finance its investments without significantly diluting shareholder value. The $500 million of leverage-neutral investment capacity created through the fourth quarter ATM activity presents an opportunity for the company to further grow its asset base without increasing its debt load, which is a positive sign for investors looking for sustainable growth.
Agree Realty's focus on retail net lease properties is noteworthy in the context of the broader retail real estate market. The company's portfolio, which is 99.8% leased with a weighted-average remaining lease term of approximately 8.4 years, provides a stable income stream. The high percentage of investment-grade retail tenants (69.1% of annualized base rents) is a testament to the quality of the tenants and the resilience of the income.
The ground lease portfolio, being fully occupied with a weighted-average remaining lease term of approximately 10.5 years, further reinforces the stability of the company's rental income. Ground leases are typically long-term and provide a steady income with minimal landlord responsibilities, which is attractive from an investor's standpoint.
Geographic and tenant diversification reduces the risk of income concentration and exposure to regional economic fluctuations. The spread across 49 states and investment in a variety of retail sectors, including essential services like grocery stores and home improvement, positions the company well to withstand sector-specific downturns.
The strategic capital allocation of Agree Realty Corporation, as demonstrated by its acquisition and disposition activities, reflects a disciplined investment approach. The acquisition of properties at a weighted-average capitalization rate of 7.2% for the fourth quarter and 6.9% for the full year is competitive within the industry, suggesting the company is able to invest capital at returns that should be accretive to shareholder value.
Development and Developer Funding Platform (DFP) projects represent a forward-thinking approach to value creation, as they often offer higher yields upon completion compared to immediate acquisitions. The completion of development projects and the commencement of new ones showcase the company's ability to manage and execute its growth strategy effectively.
From an investment perspective, the company's disciplined approach to capital management, including the use of forward equity offerings, positions it well to take advantage of market opportunities without over-leveraging. The anticipated net proceeds from outstanding forward equity offerings provide a cushion for future investments or debt reduction, which could further enhance the company's financial flexibility and shareholder value.

(1) The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification ("FASB ASC") 842 "Leases" using the modified retrospective approach as of January 1, 2019. The Company adopted the practical expedient in FASB ASC 842 that alleviates the requirement to separately present lease and non-lease components of lease contracts. As a result, all income earned pursuant to tenant leases is reflected as one line, "Rental Income," in the consolidated statement of operations. The purpose of this table is to provide additional supplementary detail of Rental Income. | ||||||||||
(2) Represents contractual rentals and/or reimbursements as required by tenant lease agreements, recognized on an accrual basis of accounting. The Company believes that the presentation of contractual lease income is not, and is not intended to be, a presentation in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes this information is frequently used by management, investors, analysts and other interested parties to evaluate the Company's performance. | ||||||||||
(3) Represents adjustments to recognize minimum rents on a straight-line basis, consistent with the requirements of FASB ASC 842. | ||||||||||
(4) In allocating the fair value of an acquired property, above- and below-market lease intangibles are recorded based on the present value of the difference between the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the leases at the time of acquisition and the Company's estimate of current market lease rates for the property. |
