LOS ANGELES, Oct. 20, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc.

"Our third quarter results demonstrate the consistent performance of Rexford's focused strategy and the stability of our infill Southern California tenant base within the nation's largest, lowest vacancy and highest demand industrial market," stated Michael Frankel and Howard Schwimmer, Co-Chief Executive Officers of the Company. "The strength of our third quarter rent collections, which performed very near strong pre-pandemic levels, reflect our tenants' superior aggregate credit quality. Despite the ongoing challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic and the unique California municipal orders allowing many tenants impacted by COVD-19 to defer their rent, we continue to benefit from scarce and diminishing supply driving an ongoing supply-demand imbalance fueled by growing tenant demand from a range of industry sectors including the dramatic growth in ecommerce. Our portfolio occupancy is above pre-pandemic levels, with leasing volumes and spreads also tracking at peak, pre-pandemic levels. We also continue to drive accretive external growth, with $374.6 million of acquisitions completed year to date and a favorable pipeline of additional acquisition opportunities currently in process. Our fortress-like balance sheet and strong liquidity position the company to capitalize on growth opportunities and to protect against ongoing market uncertainty.  We are excited at the prospects ahead to continue to create long term shareholder value."

COVID-19 Impact on Operations (As of October 19, 2020)

In response to COVID-19, most California municipalities in the markets in which the Company owns properties have implemented eviction moratoriums and granted tenants impacted by COVID-19 the unilateral right to defer rent while the emergency orders are in effect, with repayment generally mandated within six months after the end of the local emergency.  The majority of those orders were extended and remain in place.  A number of the Company's tenants have utilized these local government mandates authorizing deferral of rent. While the Company is currently unable to completely estimate the impact that COVID-19 and these emergency orders will have on its financial condition and results of operations for the remainder of 2020, as of October 19, 2020, the Company has proactively worked with its tenants and has seen the following impact on its portfolio (using tenant counts and In-Place Annualized Base Rent ("ABR") as of September 30, 2020):

  • The Company had 1,478 leases representing in-place annualized base rent ("ABR") of $274.6 million. ABR is defined/calculated as the monthly contractual base rent per the leases, excluding any rent abatements, as of September 30, 2020, multiplied by 12.
  • During the quarter, the Company executed rent relief agreements, which comprise application of security deposits, acceleration of deposits, and deferral of base rent with 27 tenants. Of the rent relief agreements executed, 14 tenants received deferred base rent of $0.7 million or 0.2% of ABR. To date, the Company has executed rent relief agreements with 270 tenants, including 118 tenants receiving deferred base rent of $4.6 million or 1.7% of ABR. See the table below for a summary of rent relief provided to tenants applicable to the second and third quarters of 2020 and October 2020.

The following table sets forth the following information regarding contractual rent: (i) amount billed, (ii) percentage collected prior to the impact of consummated rent relief agreements, (iii) the amount of rent relief provided to tenants by the (a) application of security deposits, (b) acceleration of future existing contractual rent concessions and (c) deferral of contractual base rent and (iv) percentage collected after adjusting for rent relief provided by rent relief agreements.

Guidance:

While the full economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and efforts to contain its spread, as well as the impact of

local California government mandates enabling some tenants impacted by COVID-19 to unilaterally defer rent, are difficult to predict or quantify, based on recent trends the Company has observed, the Company is increasing its full year 2020 guidance as follows:

  • Net income attributable to common stockholders within a range of $0.46 to $0.48 per diluted share
  • Company share of Core FFO within a range of $1.29 to $1.31 per diluted share
  • Year-end Stabilized Same Property Portfolio occupancy within a range of 97.5% to 98.0%
  • Stabilized Same Property Portfolio NOI growth for the year within a range of 3.0% to 3.5%
  • General and administrative expenses within a range of $36.5 million to $37.0 million

The Core FFO guidance refers only to the Company's in-place portfolio as of October 20, 2020 and the pending acquisition of an industrial park with four buildings (the "Industrial Park") that is expected to close during the fourth quarter of 2020 (for additional details, refer to the Company's Form 8-K that was filed with the SEC on October 9, 2020) and does not include any assumptions for other acquisitions, dispositions or balance sheet activities that may or may not occur through the end of the year. A number of factors could impact the Company's ability to deliver results in line with its guidance, including, but not limited to, the number of tenants requesting rent relief or failing to pay rent in future periods, the duration and severity of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, interest rates, the economy, the supply and demand of industrial real estate, failure to satisfy the closing conditions for the Industrial Park, the availability and terms of financing to the Company or to potential acquirers of real estate and the timing and yields for divestment and investment. There can be no assurance that the Company can achieve such results.

Supplemental Information:

Details regarding these results can be found in the Company's supplemental information package available on the Company's investor relations website at www.ir.rexfordindustrial.com.

Definitions / Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

Funds from Operations (FFO): We calculate FFO in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"). FFO represents net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable operating property, impairment losses, real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs) and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Management uses FFO as a supplemental performance measure because, in excluding real estate related depreciation and amortization, gains and losses from property dispositions, other than temporary impairments of unconsolidated real estate entities, and impairment on our investment in real estate, it provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, captures trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs. We also believe that, as a widely recognized measure of performance used by other REITs, FFO may be used by investors as a basis to compare our operating performance with that of other REITs. However, because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization and captures neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions nor the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which have real economic effects and could materially impact our results from operations, the utility of FFO as a measure of our performance is limited. Other equity REITs may not calculate or interpret FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition as we do, and, accordingly, our FFO may not be comparable to such other REITs' FFO. FFO should not be used as a measure of our liquidity and is not indicative of funds available for our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends.  FFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income computed in accordance with GAAP as a measure of our performance. A reconciliation of net income, the nearest GAAP equivalent, to FFO is set forth below.

Core Funds from Operations (Core FFO): We calculate Core FFO by adjusting FFO to exclude the impact of certain items that we do not consider reflective of our core revenue or expense streams. These adjustments consist of acquisition expenses.  Management believes that Core FFO is a useful supplemental measure as it provides a more meaningful and consistent comparison of operating performance and allows investors to more easily compare the Company's operating results.  Because certain of these adjustments have a real economic impact on our financial condition and results from operations, the utility of Core FFO as a measure of our performance is limited. Other REITs may not calculate Core FFO in a consistent manner.  Accordingly, our Core FFO may not be comparable to other REITs' Core FFO. Core FFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income computed in accordance with GAAP as a measure of our performance.  A reconciliation of FFO to Core FFO is set forth below.

Reconciliation of Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders per Diluted Share Guidance to Company share of Core FFO per Diluted Share Guidance:  The following is a reconciliation of the Company's 2020 guidance range of net income attributable to common stockholders per diluted share, the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measure, to Company share of Core FFO per diluted share.

Net Operating Income (NOI): NOI is a non-GAAP measure, which includes the revenue and expense directly attributable to our real estate properties. NOI is calculated as rental income from real estate operations less property expenses (before interest expense, depreciation and amortization). We use NOI as a supplemental performance measure because, in excluding real estate depreciation and amortization expense and gains (or losses) from property dispositions, it provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, captures trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs. We also believe that NOI will be useful to investors as a basis to compare our operating performance with that of other REITs. However, because NOI excludes depreciation and amortization expense and captures neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions, nor the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties (all of which have a real economic effect and could materially impact our results from operations), the utility of NOI as a measure of our performance is limited. Other equity REITs may not calculate NOI in a similar manner and, accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to such other REITs' NOI. Accordingly, NOI should be considered only as a supplement to net income as a measure of our performance. NOI should not be used as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs.

NOI should not be used as a substitute for cash flow from operating activities in accordance with GAAP. We use NOI to help evaluate the performance of the Company as a whole, as well as the performance of our Stabilized Same Property Portfolio. A calculation of NOI for our Stabilized Same Property Portfolio, as well as a reconciliation of net income to NOI for our Stabilized Same Property Portfolio, is set forth below.

Cash NOI: Cash NOI is a non-GAAP measure, which we calculate by adding or subtracting from NOI i) fair value lease revenue and ii) straight-line rent adjustments. We use Cash NOI, together with NOI, as a supplemental performance measure. Cash NOI should not be used as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs. Cash NOI should not be used as a substitute for cash flow from operating activities computed in accordance with GAAP. We use Cash NOI to help evaluate the performance of the Company as a whole, as well as the performance of our Stabilized Same Property Portfolio. A calculation of Cash NOI for our Stabilized Same Property Portfolio, as well as a reconciliation of net income to Cash NOI for our Stabilized Same Property Portfolio, is set forth below.

Stabilized Same Property Portfolio: 

Our Stabilized Same Property Portfolio is a subset of our consolidated portfolio and includes properties that were wholly owned by us for the period from January 1, 2019 through September 30, 2020, and that were stabilized as of January 1, 2019.  Therefore, our Stabilized Same Property Portfolio excludes any properties that were acquired or sold during the period from January 1, 2019 through September 30, 2020, and properties acquired prior to January 1, 2019, that were classified as current or future repositioning, development or lease-up during 2019 or 2020 (listed below).  For 2020, our Stabilized Same Property Portfolio consists of 159 properties aggregating 19,690,990 rentable square feet.

Properties and Space Under Repositioning: Typically defined as properties or units where a significant amount of space is held vacant in order to implement capital improvements that improve the functionality (not including basic refurbishments, i.e., paint and carpet), cash flow and value of that space.  We define a significant amount of space at a property as the lower of (i) 40,000 square feet of space or (ii) 50% of a property's square footage.  Typically, we would include properties or space where the repositioning and lease-up time frame is estimated to be greater than six months.  A repositioning is considered complete once the investment is fully or nearly fully deployed and the property is marketable for leasing. We consider a repositioning property to be stabilized at the earlier of the following: (i) upon reaching 90% occupancy or (ii) one year from the date of completion of repositioning construction work.  We look to update this definition on an annual basis based on the growth and size of the Company's consolidated portfolio.

Net Debt to Enterprise Value: At September 30, 2020, we had consolidated indebtedness of $908.0 million, reflecting a net debt to enterprise value of approximately 9.7%. Our enterprise value is defined as the sum of the liquidation preference of our outstanding preferred stock and preferred units plus the market value of our common stock excluding shares of nonvested restricted stock, plus the aggregate value of common units not owned by us, plus the value of our net debt.  Our net debt is defined as our consolidated indebtedness less cash and cash equivalents.
