Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

September 30, 2014

 

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 (including furniture stores, restaurants, office supply stores and supermarkets), industrial, flex, office, health and fitness and other properties, a substantial portion of which are subject to long-term net leases.  As of September 30, 2014, OLP owned 113 properties, including six properties owned by consolidated joint ventures and five properties owned by unconsolidated joint ventures. The 113 properties are located in 30 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, 2014 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, 2013.

 

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 and its investment in six joint ventures in which the Company, as defined, has a controlling interest.  OLP and its consolidated subsidiaries are hereinafter referred to as the “Company”.  Material intercompany items and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Disposals of Properties

 

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, which changes the criteria for determining which future disposals can be presented as discontinued operations and modifies related disclosure requirements.  Under the new guidance, a discontinued operation is defined as a disposal of a component or group of components that is disposed of or is classified as held for sale and represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. The guidance is effective for calendar year public companies beginning in the first quarter of 2015 and is to be applied on a prospective basis for new disposals. Early adoption of this guidance is permitted but only for disposals (or classifications as held-for-sale) that have not been reported

in financial statements previously issued. The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2014. It is expected that most of the Company’s future dispositions will not meet the criteria for being treated as a discontinued operation under this guidance. This guidance was applied for 2014 disposals with the exception of the two properties that were sold in February 2014 because these properties were previously classified as properties held-for-sale as of December 31, 2013. These properties will continue to be accounted for as discontinued operations for the periods presented.

 

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 each 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 FASB’s guidance for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity, or VIE, requires the determination of whether the entity’s equity investment at risk is sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support and whether the entity’s at-risk equity holders have a controlling financial interest. Under this guidance, an entity would be required to consolidate a VIE if the entity is determined to be the primary beneficiary — the entity is considered to be the primary beneficiary when it has the (i) power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) obligation to absorb losses of the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could be significant to the VIE.  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.

 

In June 2014, the Company purchased land for $6,510,000 in Sandy Springs, Georgia improved with a 196 unit apartment complex, and simultaneously entered into a long-term triple net ground lease with the owner/operator of this complex (see Note 4).  The Company determined that it has a variable interest through its ground lease and the owner/operator is a VIE because its equity investment at risk is not sufficient to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support.  The Company’s fee interest in the land is collateral for the owner/operator’s loan on the buildings located at this property. The Company further determined that 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, will not consolidate the VIE for financial statement purposes.  Accordingly, the Company will account for its investment as land and the revenue from the ground lease as Rental Income, net.  At September 30, 2014, the Company’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of the ground lease is an aggregate of $6,626,000, representing the $6,516,000 carrying value of the land, included in Real estate investments, net, on the consolidated balance sheets and the unbilled rent receivable of $110,000.

 

In June 2014, the Company entered into a joint venture, in which the Company has a 95% equity interest, and acquired a property located in Joppa, Maryland (see Note 4).  The Company also made a senior preferred equity investment in the joint venture.  The Company has determined that this joint venture is a VIE as the Company’s voting rights are not proportional to its economic interests and substantially all of the joint venture’s activities are conducted by the Company.  The Company further determined that 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 sale of the property, as well as the obligation to absorb the losses or rights to receive benefits from the VIE.  Accordingly, the Company consolidates the operations of this joint venture for financial statement purposes.

 

For the consolidated VIE, the carrying amounts and classification in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets were assets (none of which are restricted) consisting of land of $3,805,000, building and improvements (net of depreciation) of $8,081,000, cash of $318,000, prepaid expenses and receivables of $38,000, accrued expenses and other liabilities of $123,000 and non-controlling interest in joint ventures of $309,000.  The joint venture’s creditors do not have recourse to the assets of the Company other than those held by the joint venture.

 

With respect to five consolidated joint ventures in which the Company has between an 85% to 95% interest, the Company has determined that (i) such ventures are not VIE’s and (ii) the Company exercises substantial operating control and accordingly, such ventures are consolidated for financial statement purposes.

 

The Company accounts for its investments in five 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, 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.

Tenant Reimbursements

 

Tenant reimbursements represent contractually obligated reimbursements from tenants for recoverable real estate taxes and operating expenses.

 

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, primarily to break out tenant reimbursements that had been included in rental income, net, for all periods presented. In addition, the operations of two properties that were sold in February 2014 were reclassified to discontinued operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013.

 

Note 3 - Earnings Per Common Share

 

Basic earnings per share was determined by dividing net income allocable to common stockholders for the applicable 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 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 described in Note 13 are excluded from the basic earnings per share calculation, as these units are not participating securities.

 

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, 2014 and 2013, 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, 2014 and 2013, as they did not meet the return on capital performance metric during such periods.

 

There were no options outstanding to purchase shares of common stock or other rights exercisable for, or convertible into, common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013.

(a)         Includes capitalized transaction costs of $6 incurred with this asset acquisition.

(b)         Includes capitalized transaction costs of $297 incurred with this asset acquisition.

(c)          Adjustments to finalize intangibles relating to properties purchased in 2013.

 

Each property purchased by the Company in 2014 is net leased by a single tenant pursuant to a lease that expires between 2015 through 2044.

 

In June 2014, the Company purchased land in Sandy Springs, Georgia improved with a 196 unit apartment complex, for a land purchase price of $6,510,000 and simultaneously entered into a long-term triple net ground lease with the owner/operator of this complex.  Pursuant to the terms of the ground lease, the owner/operator is obligated to make certain unit renovations as and when units become vacant.  A cash reserve of $1,845,000 is held on behalf of the owner/operator to cover renovation work and other reserve requirements and is classified as Restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheet.

 

At closing, the owner/operator obtained a $16,230,000 mortgage from a third party which, together with the Company’s purchase of the land, provided substantially all of the aggregate funds to acquire the complex.  The Company provided its land as collateral for the owner/operator’s mortgage loan; accordingly the land position is subordinated to the mortgage.

 

As a result of the 2014 acquisitions, the Company recorded intangible lease assets of $2,058,000 and intangible lease liabilities of $2,747,000, representing the value of the origination costs and acquired leases.  As of September 30, 2014, the weighted average amortization period for these acquisitions is 7.4 years for the intangible lease assets and 8.2 years for the 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 14) in the fair value hierarchy. The Company has finalized the purchase price allocations for the properties acquired during the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

 

Acquisitions Subsequent to September 30, 2014

 

On October 2, 2014, the Company purchased a stadium style theater located in Indianapolis, Indiana for $9,000,000, which was paid in cash. The property is net leased to Regal Cinemas, Inc. through 2027.

 

On October 21, 2014, the Company purchased through a joint venture in which it has a 90% interest, a Pathmark supermarket property located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for $7,700,000, which was financed in part by mortgage financing of $4,635,000.  The mortgage, which matures in 2021, bears interest at a rate of 3.885% per annum.  The property is net leased through 2021.

 

The aggregate annual base rent at acquisition for these two properties is approximately $1,280,000.

Note 5 - Discontinued Operations, Properties Held for Sale and Impairment

 

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.  The following table summarizes the components of income from discontinued operations applicable to these properties (amounts in thousands):

On October 15, 2014, the Company sold a property located in Parsippany, New Jersey for approximately $38,600,000, net of closing costs. At September 30, 2014, the Company classified the net book value of the property’s land, building and building improvements of $25,589,000 as properties held for sale and classified the unbilled rent receivable, tenant origination costs and intangible lease assets of $2,836,000 as assets related to property held for sale in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.  The sale resulted in a gain of approximately $10,000,000 for financial statement purposes, which will be included in net gain on sale of property during the year and three months ended December 31, 2014, and resulted in a gain of approximately $21,000,000 for federal tax purposes.  The Company is pursuing acquisitions which may allow it to defer all or part of the tax gain in accordance with Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. In connection with the sale, the Company paid off the approximate $13,400,000 mortgage balance on this property and incurred a $1,580,000 mortgage prepayment penalty, which will also be reported during the year and three months ended December 31, 2014.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2014, the Company determined there were indicators of impairment at its property located in Morrow, Georgia at which 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. The Company recorded an impairment charge of $1,093,000 at September 30, 2014 in the accompanying consolidated statement of income, does not intend to make any further payments on the mortgage, and intends to surrender the property to the mortgagee. The Company measured fair value of the property based on a sales comparison approach (as discussed in Note 14).  At September 30, 2014, the adjusted net book value of the property was $1,470,000.

Note 6 — Lease Termination Fee Income

 

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 existing tenant’s lease.

 

Note 7 - Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures

 

At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had investments in five unconsolidated joint ventures, each of which owned and operated one property. The Company’s equity investment in such unconsolidated joint ventures at such dates totaled $4,874,000 and $4,906,000, respectively. In addition to the $2,807,000 gain on the sale of a tenant-in-common property in the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company recorded equity in earnings of $397,000 and $513,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $134,000 and $122,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

 

Additionally, in April 2013, the Company sold its 90% equity interest in a joint venture to its partner and recorded a gain of $1,898,000.

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, 2014 and December 31, 2013, 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, 2014 and 2013, the Company did not incur any bad debt expense.

 

Note 9 - Line of Credit

 

The Company has a $75,000,000 revolving credit facility with Manufacturer’s & Trader’s Trust Company, VNB New York Corp., Bank Leumi USA and Israel Discount Bank of New York.  This facility matures March 31, 2015. The Company is currently in negotiations for a new facility.  The Company pays interest at the greater of (i) 90 day LIBOR plus 3% (3.24% at September 30, 2014) and (ii) 4.75% per annum and there is an unused facility fee of .25% per annum.  At September 30, 2014 and November 3, 2014, there were outstanding balances of $21,250,000 and $20,250,000, respectively, under the facility. The Company was in compliance with all covenants at September 30, 2014.

Note 10 - Compensation and Services Agreement

 

The Company agreed to pay fees of $3,300,000 and $3,465,000 in 2014 and 2015, respectively (including overhead expenses of $186,375 and $195,694 and property management fees, included in real estate expenses on the income statement, of $850,000 and $892,500 in 2014 and 2015, respectively) pursuant to the compensation and services agreement, as amended, with Majestic Property Management Corp.  Majestic Property Management Corp is wholly-owned by the Vice Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors.

 

Effective July 1, 2014, certain employees of affiliated companies performing services pursuant to this agreement are paid directly by the Company for the time they spend performing services on the Company’s behalf.  Accordingly, the fees (including the overhead expenses and property management fees) paid pursuant to this agreement were reduced to $2,855,000 and $2,535,000 for 2014 and 2015, respectively.  At September 30, 2014, the Company recorded a receivable from Majestic Property Management Corp. for $223,000 representing amounts paid during the three months ended September 30, 2014 in excess of the reduced fee.  This receivable was applied against the fee payable for October 2014 and the balance was repaid to the Company on October 3, 2014.

 

Note 11 - Common Stock Cash Dividend

 

On September 11, 2014, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $.37 per share on the Company’s common stock, totaling $5,976,000. The quarterly dividend was paid on October 3, 2014 to stockholders of record on September 25, 2014.

 

Note 12 - Shares Issued through Equity Offering Program

 

On March 20, 2014, the Company entered into an amended and restated equity offering sales agreement to sell shares of the Company’s common stock from time to time with an aggregate sales price of up to approximately $38,360,000, through an “at the market” equity offering program.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company sold 179,051 shares for proceeds of $3,889,700, net of commissions of $39,000, and incurred offering costs, primarily professional fees, of $114,500.  The Company has not sold any shares subsequent to September 30, 2014.

Note 13 - Stock Based Compensation

 

The Company’s 2012 Incentive Plan, approved by the Company’s stockholders in June 2012, permits the Company to grant, among other things, stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance share awards and any one or more of the foregoing to its employees, officers, directors and consultants.  A maximum of 600,000 shares of the Company’s common stock is authorized for issuance pursuant to this Plan, of which 229,000 shares of restricted stock are outstanding as of September 30, 2014.  An aggregate of 452,000 shares of restricted stock and restricted stock units outstanding under the Company’s 2003 and 2009 equity incentive plans (collectively, the “Prior Plans”) have not yet vested.  No additional awards may be granted under the Prior Plans.

 

The restricted stock grants are charged to general and administrative expense over the respective vesting periods based on the market value of the common stock on the grant date. Substantially all the outstanding restricted stock awards provide for vesting upon the fifth anniversary of the date of grant and under certain circumstances may vest earlier.  For accounting purposes, the restricted stock is not included in the shares shown as outstanding on the balance sheet until they vest; however dividends are paid on the unvested shares.

 

On September 14, 2010, the Board of Directors approved a Pay-for-Performance program under the Company’s 2009 Incentive Plan and awarded 200,000 performance share awards in the form of restricted stock units (the “Units”). The holders of Units are not entitled to dividends or to vote the underlying shares until the Units vest and shares are issued. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the shares underlying the Units are not included in the shares shown as outstanding on the balance sheet.  If the defined performance criteria are satisfied in full at June 30, 2017, one share of the Company’s common stock will vest and be issued for each Unit outstanding and a pro-rata portion of the Units will vest and be issued if the performance criteria fall between defined ranges.  In the event that the performance criteria are not satisfied in whole or in part at June 30, 2017, the unvested Units will be forfeited and no shares of the Company’s common stock will be issued for those Units.  No Units were forfeited or vested in the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

 

As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, there were no options outstanding under the Company’s equity incentive plans.

These compensation costs will be charged to general and administrative expense over the remaining respective vesting periods. The weighted average vesting period is approximately 2.6 years.

Note 14 - 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 and other assets and receivables, and accrued expenses and other liabilities 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, 2014, the $301,337,000 estimated fair value of the Company’s mortgages payable is more than their carrying value by approximately $7,585,000 assuming a blended market interest rate of 4.5% based on the 9.1 year weighted average remaining term of the mortgages.  At December 31, 2013, the $283,142,000 estimated fair value of the Company’s mortgages payable is more than their carrying value by approximately $5,097,000 assuming a blended market interest rate of 5% based on the 9.0 year weighted average remaining term of the mortgages.

 

At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the $21,250,000 and $23,250,000, 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, 2014, the Company’s available-for-sale securities included a $24,200 investment in equity securities (included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet). The aggregate cost of these securities was $5,300 and at September 30, 2014, the unrealized gain was $18,900.  Such unrealized gains were included in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the consolidated balance sheet.  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 proceeds of $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 sheet into earnings.

Note 14 - Fair Value Measurements (continued)

 

Derivative financial instruments

 

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, 2014, 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, 2014, the Company had 17 interest rate derivatives outstanding, all of which were interest rate swaps, related to 17 outstanding mortgage loans with an aggregate $84,606,000 notional amount and mature between 2014 and 2024 (weighted average maturity of 6.71 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 6.50% and a weighted average interest rate of 4.91% at September 30, 2014).  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 $134,000 and $2,062,000, respectively, at September 30, 2014, and $265,000 and $774,000, respectively, at December 31, 2013.

 

Two of the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures, in which a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company is a 50% partner, had an interest rate derivative outstanding at September 30, 2014 with a notional amount of $3,735,000. This interest rate derivative has an interest rate of 5.81% and matures in April 2018.

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, 2014 and 2013.  During the twelve months ending September 30, 2015, the Company estimates an additional $1,725,000 will be reclassified from other comprehensive income (loss) as an increase to interest expense.

 

The derivative agreements in effect at September 30, 2014 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, the Company could be held liable for interest rate swap breakage losses, if any.

 

As of September 30, 2014, the fair value of the derivatives in a liability position, including accrued interest, and excluding any adjustments for nonperformance risk, was approximately $2,252,000.  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 $2,252,000.  Such amount is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities at September 30, 2014.

Note 14 - Fair Value Measurements (continued)

 

Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis

 

Non-financial assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis in the consolidated financial statements consists of a property located in Morrow, Georgia for which the Company recorded an impairment charge of $1,093,000 at September 30, 2014 (as disclosed in Note 5 - Discontinued Operations, Properties Held for Sale and Impairment). The Company measured the fair value of the property using a sales comparison approach and included comparable sales and listings in the identified market adjusted for the subject property. Such inputs were determined to be Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy.  Significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement include price per square foot rates, which range from $25 to $33 per square foot. The Company’s internally prepared valuation is reviewed and approved by a diverse group of management, as deemed necessary, and valuations are performed and updated as appropriate.

 

Note 15 - New Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which provides guidance for revenue recognition. This update is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016.  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.

 

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 about 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 does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have any impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

Note 16 - Subsequent Events

 

Subsequent events have been evaluated and except as disclosed in Note 4 (Real Estate Acquisitions and Contingent Liability) and Note 5 (Discontinued Operations, Properties Held for Sale and Impairment), there were no other events relative to the Company’s consolidated financial statements that require additional disclosure.

Recent Developments

 

Subsequent to September 30, 2014, we:

 

·                  sold an office property located in Parsippany, New Jersey for approximately $38.6 million, net of closing costs, resulting in a $10 million gain (without giving effect to the $1.58 million mortgage prepayment penalty) for financial statement purposes, which will be reported in the year and three months ended December 31, 2014. In connection with the sale, we paid off the approximate $13.4 million mortgage balance on this property; and

 

·                  acquired two properties for approximately $16.7 million - a movie theater located in Indianapolis, Indiana for $9 million and a supermarket located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for $7.7 million (including mortgage debt of approximately $4.6 million with an annual interest rate of 3.885% and maturing in 2021).

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, office, health and fitness and other properties, a substantial portion of which are leased under long-term net leases.  As of September 30, 2014, we own 113 properties (including six properties owned by consolidated joint ventures and five properties owned by unconsolidated joint ventures) located in 30 states. Based on square footage, our occupancy rate at September 30, 2014 is approximately 99.2%.

 

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 re-let, on acceptable terms, leases that are expiring.

 

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.

 

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.

 

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.

 

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 maintain our REIT status.

 

Our 2014 contractual rental income is approximately $54.7 million and represents, after giving effect to any abatement, concessions or adjustments, the base rent payable to us in calendar year 2014 under leases in effect at September 30, 2014. The 2014 contractual rental income excludes approximately $1.5 million of straight-line rent, amortization of approximately $240,000 of intangibles and our share of the rental income payable to our unconsolidated joint ventures, which in 2014 will be approximately $1.5 million.

 

The following table sets forth scheduled lease expirations of leases for our properties (excluding unconsolidated joint ventures) as of September 30, 2014 for the calendar years indicated below:

(1)         Lease expirations assume tenants do not exercise existing renewal options.

(2)         Excludes the Indiana and Pennsylvania properties acquired in October 2014 — these properties will provide an aggregate base rent of approximately $285,000 from the date of purchase through December 31, 2014.

(3)         Includes the Parsippany, New Jersey property which was sold on October 15, 2014 — this 106,680 square foot property represents $2,248,281 of 2014 contractual rental income. The effect of the sale, which is not reflected in this table, is an approximate $480,000 decrease in 2014 contractual rental income.

Revenues

 

Rental income.  The increases are primarily due to rental income of $2.0 million and $6.7 million earned during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, from 17 properties acquired in 2013 and 2014 ($1.2 million and $5.5 million, respectively, from the 11 properties acquired in 2013), and to a lesser extent, to increases of $94,000 and $283,000, respectively, from a lease of vacant space at a property. The increases were partially offset during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 by decreases of $81,000 and $327,000, respectively, resulting from lease expirations in January 2014. (In May 2014, one of these properties was leased to a new tenant). The increase in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was also partially offset by the $150,000 write-off against rental income of the entire balance of the unbilled rent receivable and the intangible lease asset related to a lease for which we received a $1.269 million lease termination fee.

 

The aggregate rental income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 includes $745,000 and $2.2 million, respectively, from our Parsippany, New Jersey property, which we sold in October 2014, and our Morrow, Georgia property, which we intend to surrender to the mortgagee (see Note 5).  The aggregate annual base rent at acquisition for the Indiana and Pennsylvania properties purchased in October 2014 is approximately $1.28 million.

 

Tenant reimbursements.  Real estate tax and operating expense reimbursements increased by (i) $139,000 and $257,000 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, primarily due to the lease of vacant space and increased real estate taxes at our Cherry Hill, New Jersey property and (ii) $56,000 and $203,000, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, from four properties acquired since July 2013.

 

Lease termination fee.  In connection with a lease buy-out of a retail tenant in June 2014, we received a lease termination fee of $1.269 million.  We re-leased this property simultaneously with the termination of the existing tenant’s lease.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Depreciation and amortization.  Approximately $697,000 and $2.5 million of the increase for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, is due to depreciation and amortization expense on the properties we acquired in 2013 and 2014 ($524,000 and $2.2 million, respectively, from the properties acquired in 2013).

 

General and administrative expenses.  Contributing to the increase in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 were increases of: (i) $82,000 and $235,000, respectively, in non-cash compensation expense primarily related to the increase in the number of restricted stock awards granted in 2014 and the higher fair value of such awards at the time of grant; (ii) $39,000 and $92,000, respectively, for third party audit and tax services; (iii) $22,000 and $66,000, respectively, in increased compensation expense primarily payable to three full time executive officers and $17,000 and $51,000, respectively, in increased directors’ fees; and (iv) $38,000 and $113,000, respectively, in the amount paid pursuant to the compensation and services agreement prior to the fee reduction effected as of July 1, 2014 (see Note 10).

Table of Contents

 

Real estate expenses.  The increases in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 are due to several factors including (i) an annual increase of $250,000 ($62,500 per quarter) in the amount for property management services pursuant to the compensation and services agreement due to the increase in the number and nature of properties in our portfolio; (ii) increases of $56,000 and $203,000 from four properties acquired since July 2013, all of which is rebilled to tenants; (iii) increases in real estate taxes of $125,000 and $128,000, respectively, at our Cherry Hill, New Jersey property, a portion of which is rebilled to the tenants; and (iv) $24,000 and $156,000, respectively, of expenses related to two properties vacated by their respective tenants at lease expiration in January 2014 (one of which was re-let in May 2014). In addition, an increase of $174,000 (a significant portion of which is rebilled to tenants) in snow removal expense due to the harsh 2014 winter contributed to the increase in the nine months ended September 30, 2014. These increases were partially offset by decreases in various real estate expenses, none of which were individually significant.

 

Real estate acquisition costs.  These costs, which include acquisition fees, legal and other transactional costs and expenses, decreased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 due to reduced costs associated with closing transactions and fewer property purchases in the current year.

 

Impairment loss.  At September 30, 2014, we recorded an impairment charge of $1.093 million on our property located in Morrow, Georgia where the tenant did not renew its lease which expired on October 31, 2014 and efforts to re-let the property have been unsuccessful. The non-recourse mortgage on the property matured on November 1, 2014, we do not intend to make any further payments on the mortgage, and we intend to surrender the property to the mortgagee. At September 30, 2014, the adjusted net book value of the property was $1.47 million.

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures.  The decrease in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 is attributable substantially to the sale in May 2013 of a property owned by us and another entity as tenants-in-common (the “TIC Property”) and the sale in April 2013 of our interest in the Plano, Texas joint venture.

Credit line interest

 

The increases are due to the $26.3 million and $9.4 million increase in the weighted average balance outstanding under our line of credit in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively.  The weighted average balance increased due to borrowings to acquire several properties in 2014, partially offset by repayments on the facility (i) with proceeds from the financing of several properties in 2014 and (ii) the proceeds from the sale of two properties located in Michigan in 2014.

The increase in mortgage interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 is due to the increase in the weighted average amount of mortgage debt outstanding, partially offset by a decrease in the weighted average interest rate on outstanding mortgage debt. The increase in the weighted average balance outstanding is due to the incurrence of mortgage debt of $72.6 million in connection with properties acquired in 2013 (primarily in the second half of 2013) and 2014 and the financing or refinancing of $12.1 million, net of refinanced amounts, in connection with properties acquired in prior years. The decrease in the weighted average interest rate is due to the financing (including financings effectuated in

connection with acquisitions) or refinancing in 2013 and 2014 of $116.5 million of gross new mortgage debt with a weighted average interest rate of approximately 4.7%.

 

Discontinued operations.  Discontinued operations include the income from operations of two Michigan properties sold in February 2014.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our sources of liquidity and capital include 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 3, 2014, after selling our Parsippany, New Jersey property and purchasing the theater and supermarket properties subsequent to September 30, 2014, was approximately $72.8 million, including approximately $18.0 million of cash and cash equivalents (net of the credit facility’s required $7.5 million deposit maintenance balance) and $54.8 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, 2014, excluding mortgage indebtedness of our unconsolidated joint ventures, we had 56 outstanding mortgages payable secured by 78 properties, in aggregate principal amount of approximately $293.8 million.  These mortgages represent first liens on individual real estate investments with an aggregate carrying value of approximately $480.5 million, before accumulated depreciation of $64.6 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 5.07% weighted average interest rate) and mature between 2014 and 2037 (a 9.1 year weighted average remaining term on the mortgages).

 

The following table sets forth, as of September 30, 2014, information with respect to our mortgage debt that is payable from October 1, 2014 through December 31, 2016. This table (i) excludes mortgage debt of our unconsolidated joint ventures and the amortization related to the $13.4 million Parsippany, New Jersey mortgage that was paid off in October 2014 and (ii) includes the amortization related to the mortgages incurred in connection with financings and an acquisition completed subsequent to September 30, 2014:

At September 30, 2014, the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures had first mortgages on four properties with outstanding balances of approximately $17.3 million, bearing interest at rates ranging from 5.81% to 6.0% (a 5.86% weighted average interest rate) and maturing between 2015 and 2018.

 

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 2014 through 2016.  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).

 

We continuously seek to refinance existing mortgage loans on terms we deem acceptable, in order to generate additional liquidity.  Additionally, in the normal course of our 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 approximately equal to or less than the principal balance outstanding on the mortgage loan, we may determine in certain circumstances to convey such property to the mortgagee in order to terminate our mortgage obligations, including payment of interest, principal and real estate taxes, with respect to such property.

 

Typically, we utilize 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. As a result, in order to grow our business, it is important to have a credit facility in place.  Additionally in connection with the acquisition of a number of larger properties during 2013, we arranged for contemporaneous mortgage financing covering a major portion of the applicable purchase price.

 

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, as defined in the credit agreement, and if used for working capital purposes, will not exceed $10 million.  The facility matures on March 31, 2015 and bears interest at the greater of (i) 90 day LIBOR plus 3% and (ii) 4.75% per annum. 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 maintenance of $7.5 million in average deposit balances. We are currently in negotiations for a new credit facility, although there can be no assurance such facility will be obtained.

 

The terms of our revolving credit facility include certain restrictions and covenants which may limit, among other things, 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, 2014, we were in compliance in all material respects with the covenants under this facility.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We are not a party to any material off-balance sheet arrangements.  See Note 4 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements regarding an off-balance sheet arrangement on our property located in Sandy Springs, Georgia.

 

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 and joint ventures. 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 and the amortization of costs in connection with our financing activities (including our share of our unconsolidated joint ventures).

 

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.

 

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.

 

33

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.  Management also prepares and reviews the reconciliation of net income to FFO and AFFO.

 

The table below provides a reconciliation of net income in accordance with GAAP to FFO and AFFO for the periods indicated (dollars in thousands):

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, 2014, we had 18 interest rate swap agreements outstanding (including one held by two 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, 2014, if there had been an increase of 100 basis points in forward interest rates, the fair market value of the interest rate swaps and net unrealized gain on derivative instruments would have increased by approximately $4.7 million.  If there were a decrease of 100 basis points in forward interest rates, the fair market value of the interest rate swaps and net unrealized gain on derivative instruments would have decreased by

approximately $4.8 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 credit facility is a revolving variable rate facility which is sensitive to interest rates. Under current market conditions, we do not believe that our risk of material potential losses in future earnings, fair values and/or cash flows from near-term changes in market rates that we consider reasonably possible is material.  We assessed the market risk for our revolving credit facility and believe that there is no foreseeable market risk because interest is charged at the greater of (i) 90 day LIBOR plus 3% and (ii) 4.75% per annum. At September 30, 2014, 90 day LIBOR plus 3% was approximately 3.24%; therefore, an increase or decrease of 100 basis points on this interest rate would not have any impact on the interest expense related to this facility.

 

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, 2014 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
