Extra Space Storage Inc.

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information

 

On July 2, 2012, Extra Space Storage Inc. (the “Company”) completed the acquisition of its joint venture partners’ interest in ESS PRISA III LLC (“PRISA III”) for approximately $300 million.  Prior to this acquisition, PRISA III was a joint venture between the Company and Prudential Real Estate Investors (“PREI®”).  PRISA III’s primary assets consist of 36 self-storage properties located throughout the United States.  Prior to the acquisition, the Company held a 5.1% equity interest in PRISA III, with the remaining equity interests held by PREI.

 

The acquisition of PREI’s interest in PRISA III was a significant acquisition under Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X.  Audits were performed on the balance sheets and the related statements of operations of PRISA III for the three-year period ended December 31, 2011.

 

The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information of the Company as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2012 has been derived from (1) the historical unaudited financial statements of the Company as filed in the Company’s Form 10-Q for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and (2) the historical unaudited financial statements of PRISA III for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

 

The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2011 has been derived from (1) the historical audited financial statements of the Company as filed in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, and (2) the audited historical financial statements of PRISA III for the year ended December 31, 2011.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2012 reflects adjustments to the Company’s unaudited historical financial data to give effect to the acquisition of PREI’s interest in PRISA III as if it had occurred on June 30, 2012.

 

The pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and for the year ended December 31, 2011 reflect adjustments to the Company’s historical financial data to give effect to the acquisition of PREI’s interest in PRISA III as if it had occurred on the first day of each period presented.

 

The unaudited pro forma adjustments are based on available information. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information is not necessarily indicative of what the Company’s actual financial position or results of operations for the period would have been as of the date and for the periods indicated, nor does it purport to represent the Company’s future financial position or results of operations. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information should be read, together with the notes thereto, in conjunction with the more detailed information contained in the historical financial statements referenced in this filing.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet

as of June 30, 2012

(in thousands, except share data)

 


(1) Reflects the assets, liabilities and stockholders’ equity of the Company as filed in its Form 10-Q for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

 

(2) Represents the purchase of PREI’s interest in PRISA III subsequent to June 30, 2012 for $158,382 in cash, and the assumption of a $145,000 note payable.  The purchase price of $322,000 was allocated to the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities acquired based on their fair values.  The values of the tangible assets, consisting of land and buildings were determined as if vacant.  The carrying value of the land and building immediately prior to acquisition was $66,849 and $176,032, respectively. Intangible assets, which represent the value of existing tenant relationships, were recorded at their fair values based on the avoided cost to replace the current leases of, which $5,636 was recorded as part of this acquisition.  The principal value of the note payable approximated its fair value as of the date of purchase. The note was paid in full on July 11, 2012.  The book value at the time of acquisition of all other assets acquired and liabilities approximated fair value.  In addition, the Company revalued its investment in PRISA III immediately prior to the acquisition in accordance with ASC 805-10-25.  This resulted in a non-cash gain of $13,499 at the time of purchase when the investment in the joint venture was written off.

Report of Independent Auditors

 

To the Members of

ESS PRISA III LLC

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of ESS PRISA III LLC as of December 31, 2011, 2010, and 2009, and the related statements of operations, members’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the management of ESS PRISA III LLC.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this financial statement based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  We were not engaged to perform an audit of ESS PRISA III LLC’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of ESS PRISA III LLC’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statement, assessing the basis of accounting used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ESS PRISA III LLC at December 31, 2011, 2010, and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

ESS PRISA III LLC

Notes to Financial Statements

(dollars in thousands)

 

1. Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Business

 

ESS PRISA III LLC, (the Company), a Delaware limited liability company, is engaged in the business of owning, leasing, managing and operating self-storage facilities located throughout the United States of America. On July 14, 2005, the Company was formed by Prudential Insurance Company of America, an affiliate of Prudential Financial, Inc (Prudential) and Extra Space Storage LLC (ESS LLC) and, unless terminated or extended by mutual agreement of the members, will continue until December 31, 2055. The Company owned 36 self-storage facilities at December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Investment in Real Estate

 

Real estate assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Costs associated with the development, construction, renovation and improvement of real estate assets are capitalized. Interest, property taxes and other costs associated with development incurred during the construction period are capitalized as building costs. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Major replacements and betterments that improve or extend the life of the asset are capitalized. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are generally between 3 and 39 years. The cost of real estate sold, or otherwise disposed of, and the related accumulated depreciation or amortization, are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in earnings.

 

Intangible lease rights represent the value assigned to one property that is subject to a land and building lease. These rights, which totaled $1,176, at December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, are classified as buildings in the accompanying balance sheets and are being amortized over the term of the lease through October 31, 2039. As of December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, accumulated amortization totaled $511, $488 and $464, respectively.

 

Intangible Assets — Tenant Relationships

 

In connection with the Company’s acquisition of real estate assets, the purchase price is allocated to the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities acquired based on their estimated fair values. The values of the tangible assets, consisting of land and buildings, are determined as if vacant, that is, at replacement cost. Intangible assets, which represent the value of tenant relationships, are recorded at their fair values.

ESS PRISA III LLC

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

(dollars in thousands)

 

1. Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Because the Company’s leases are month-to-month, no value is assigned to acquired in-place leases other than the tenant relationships, which are recorded at their fair values based on the avoided cost to replace the current leases. The Company measures the value of tenant relationships based on the rent lost due to the amount of time required to replace existing customers which is based on the Company’s historical experience with turnover in its facilities. The Company amortizes the tenant relationships on a straight-line basis over the estimated life that a tenant utilizes the facility (18 months). At December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, intangible assets related to tenant relationships of $4,823 were fully amortized.

 

Asset Impairment

 

The Company evaluates real estate assets, which are held for use, for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate an impairment may exist. An impairment loss is recorded if the net carrying value of the asset exceeds the undiscounted future net operating cash flows attributable to the asset. The impairment loss recognized equals the excess of net carrying value over the related fair value of the asset. No impairment charges have been recognized for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 or 2009.

 

When real estate assets are identified as held for sale, the Company discontinues depreciating the assets and estimates the fair value, net of selling costs. If the estimated fair value, net of selling costs, is less than the net carrying value of the asset, a valuation allowance is established. The operations of assets classified as held for sale or sold during the period are presented as discontinued operations. Management has determined no property was held for sale at December 31, 2011, 2010 or 2009.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid instruments with original maturities of 30 days or less. The Company’s cash is deposited with financial institutions located primarily in California and North Carolina, and at times may exceed federally insured limits.

 

Restricted Cash

 

Restricted cash comprises funds held by the Company’s lender for property taxes and funds which have been restricted for capital improvements. These balances are deposited with a financial institution located in California, and at times may exceed federally insured limits.

 

Deferred Financing Costs

 

Deferred financing costs are amortized on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest method, over the term of the respective loan agreement.

1. Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, payable to related party, accounts payable and accrued expenses at December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value of the note payable at December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009,  which was based on the present value of estimated future cash flows using interest rates available to the Company for similar debt, was approximately $147,600,  $149,400 and $150,000, respectively.

 

Members’ Equity

 

Members’ profits, losses and distributions are allocated in accordance with the terms of the operating agreement of the Company. Membership equity interests are held 95% by Prudential and 5% by ESS LLC. Preferred returns are paid on member equity interests under the following schedule:

 

 

 

Preferred
Return

 

 

 

 

 

July 14, 2005 – December 31, 2007

 

10.00

January 1, 2008 – December 31, 2009

January 1, 2010 – December 31, 2011

 

12.00

 

January 1, 2012 and thereafter

 

13.00

 

 

As of December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 the cumulative unpaid preferred return on members’ equity for Prudential was $6,015, $3,360 and $946, respectively.  For the same periods, the cumulative unpaid preferred return on members’ equity for ESS LLC was $321, $179 and $50, respectively. Excess profit participation interests over the preferred return are held 80% by Prudential and 20% by ESS LLC.

 

Revenue and Expense Recognition

 

Rental revenues are recognized as earned based upon amounts that are currently due from tenants. Leases are generally on month-to-month terms. Prepaid rents are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the leases. Promotional discounts are recognized as a reduction to rental income over the promotional period. Late charges, administrative fees, merchandise sales and truck rentals are recognized in other income when earned. Interest income is recognized as earned.

 

Property expenses, including utilities, repairs and maintenance and other costs to manage the facilities are recognized as incurred. The Company accrues for property tax expense based upon estimates and historical trends.

(dollars in thousands)

 

1. Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Real Estate Sales

 

The Company evaluates real estate sales for both sale recognition and profit recognition. In general, sales of real estate and related profits/losses are recognized when all consideration has changed hands, and when risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred. Certain types of continuing involvement preclude sale treatment and related profit recognition; other forms of continuing involvement allow for sale recognition but require deferral of profit recognition.

 

Advertising Costs

 

The Company incurs advertising costs primarily attributable to directory, direct mail, internet and other advertising. Recurring phonebook advertising costs are deferred and amortized over the expected benefit period, determined to be 12 months. At December 31, 2011, prepaid advertising costs of $83 were included in prepaid expenses and other assets. All other advertising costs are expensed as incurred. The Company recognized advertising expense of $535, $638 and $646, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company has elected partnership status for income tax purposes and, accordingly, is generally not directly subject to tax. The tax effects of the Company’s operations are passed directly to the members. Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been recorded in the financial statements.

 

2. Note Payable

 

The note payable is a mortgage loan bearing interest at a fixed rate of 4.97%. The loan is collateralized by real estate assets and the assignment of rents. Interest payments are made monthly with all principal and remaining interest due August 11, 2012.  Management expects to refinance the loan before the due date because of strong property performance and a current favorable lending environment for properties with low loan-to-value ratios.

 

3. Related Party Transactions

 

The Company has entered into various transactions with related parties as summarized below:

 

a.               The Company’s management agreement with Extra Space Management Incorporated (ESMI), a subsidiary of ESS LLC, provides for management fees of 5.6% of gross rental revenues actually received for the management of all operations at the Company’s self-storage facilities. During the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, management fee expense of $1,796, $1,722 and $1,686, respectively, was recognized for services provided by ESMI. At December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, $156, $110 and $143, respectively, related to management fees was included in payable to related party.

3. Related Party Transactions (continued)

 

b.              The Company uses ESMI to service payroll and other administrative activities. The Company reimburses ESMI only for the costs incurred, and no service fee is paid to ESMI. At December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, payables to ESMI of $103, $0 and $209, respectively, related to these activities, was included in payable to related party.

 

c.               Prior to 2011, Prudential bound coverage for the Company’s property insurance as part of a larger insurance binder including properties not owned by the Company. The Company reimbursed Prudential for the direct costs related to the property insurance coverage. Those costs totaled $267 and $239, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, there were no payables due to Prudential for property insurance.

 

4. Commitments and Contingencies

 

The Company owns one self-storage facility that is subject to a land and building lease. During 2009, the lease was renegotiated. The new lease term, including all extensions, ends in 2039. At December 31, 2011, future minimum rental payments under this noncancelable operating lease were as follows:

5. Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued revised Statement No. 141, Business Combinations (ASC 805) (FAS 141(R)). This guidance establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer in a business combination recognizes and measures in its financial statements the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Generally, assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a transaction are recorded at the acquisition-date fair value with limited exceptions. The guidance also changed the accounting treatment and disclosure for certain specific items in a business combination. The Company adopted this guidance for all acquisitions subsequent to January 1, 2009.

 

In May 2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 165, Subsequent Events (ASC 855). This guidance is intended to establish general standards of accounting for and disclosures of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. This guidance requires disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for selecting

this date, that is, whether this date represents the date the financial statements were issued or were available to be issued. The Company adopted this guidance effective for the year ended December 31, 2009.

 

On June 30, 2009, the FASB issued Statement No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles—a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162 (ASC 105-10-05). The standard establishes the FASB Codification (the Codification) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP. The Codification is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The Company adopted the Codification effective December 31, 2009 and has included the references to the Codification, as appropriate, in these financial statements.

 

6. Subsequent Events

 

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through April 2, 2012, the date the financial statements are available to be issued. There were no subsequent events that require disclosure.

Notes to Unaudited Interim Financial Statements

1. Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Business

 

ESS PRISA III LLC, (the Company), a Delaware limited liability company, is engaged in the business of owning, leasing, managing and operating self-storage facilities located throughout the United States of America. On July 14, 2005, the Company was formed by Prudential Insurance Company of America, an affiliate of Prudential Financial, Inc (Prudential) and Extra Space Storage LLC (ESS LLC) and, unless terminated or extended by mutual agreement of the members, will continue until December 31, 2055. The Company owned 36 self-storage facilities at June 30, 2012.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Investment in Real Estate

 

Real estate assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Costs associated with the development, construction, renovation and improvement of real estate assets are capitalized. Interest, property taxes and other costs associated with development incurred during the construction period are capitalized as building costs. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Major replacements and betterments that improve or extend the life of the asset are capitalized. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are generally between 3 and 39 years. The cost of real estate sold, or otherwise disposed of, and the related accumulated depreciation or amortization, are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in earnings.

 

Intangible lease rights represent the value assigned to one property that is subject to a land and building lease.

 

Intangible Assets — Tenant Relationships

 

In connection with the Company’s acquisition of real estate assets, the purchase price is allocated to the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities acquired based on their estimated fair values. The values of the tangible assets, consisting of land and buildings, are determined as if vacant, that is, at replacement cost. Intangible assets, which represent the value of tenant relationships, are recorded at their fair values.

1. Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Because the Company’s leases are month-to-month, no value is assigned to acquired in-place leases other than the tenant relationships, which are recorded at their fair values based on the avoided cost to replace the current leases. The Company measures the value of tenant relationships based on the rent lost due to the amount of time required to replace existing customers which is based on the Company’s historical experience with turnover in its facilities. The Company amortizes the tenant relationships on a straight-line basis over the estimated life that a tenant utilizes the facility (18 months).

 

Asset Impairment

 

The Company evaluates real estate assets, which are held for use, for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate an impairment may exist. An impairment loss is recorded if the net carrying value of the asset exceeds the undiscounted future net operating cash flows attributable to the asset. The impairment loss recognized equals the excess of net carrying value over the related fair value of the asset.

 

When real estate assets are identified as held for sale, the Company discontinues depreciating the assets and estimates the fair value, net of selling costs. If the estimated fair value, net of selling costs, is less than the net carrying value of the asset, a valuation allowance is established. The operations of assets classified as held for sale or sold during the period are presented as discontinued operations.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, payable to related party, accounts payable and accrued expenses at June 30, 2012 approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value of the note payable at June 30, 2012, which was based on the present value of estimated future cash flows using interest rates available to the Company for similar debt, was approximately $145,000.

 

Revenue and Expense Recognition

 

Rental revenues are recognized as earned based upon amounts that are currently due from tenants. Leases are generally on month-to-month terms. Prepaid rents are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the leases. Promotional discounts are recognized as a reduction to rental income over the promotional period. Late charges, administrative fees, merchandise sales and truck rentals are recognized in other income when earned. Interest income is recognized as earned.

 

Property expenses, including utilities, repairs and maintenance and other costs to manage the facilities are recognized as incurred. The Company accrues for property tax expense based upon estimates and historical trends.
