NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Unless the context otherwise requires, the “Company” refers to Industrial Income Trust Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, certain disclosures normally included in the annual audited financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) have been omitted. As such, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, filed with the SEC on February 19, 2014.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments and eliminations, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation in conformity with GAAP.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts included in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet for 2013 have been reclassified from accounts payable and accrued expenses to other liabilities to conform to the 2014 presentation.

Recent Accounting Standards

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-08, “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity” (“ASU 2014-08”), which changes the criteria at which a disposal will qualify as a discontinued operation and requires new disclosure of both discontinued operations and certain other disposals that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation. Under the revised standard, the definition of discontinued operations has been changed so that only disposals of components that represent strategic shifts qualify for discontinued operations reporting. As permitted, the Company adopted ASU 2014-08 early, and it became effective for the Company for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or liquidity.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASU 2014-09”), which provides guidance for revenue recognition and supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition.” The standard is based on the principle that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. The new guidance specifically excludes revenue derived from lease contracts from its scope. The standard will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

 

2. INVESTMENT IN REAL ESTATE PROPERTIES

As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company’s consolidated investment in real estate properties consisted of 283 and 296 industrial buildings, respectively, totaling approximately 57.6 million and 57.2 million square feet, respectively.

Derivative Instruments

To manage interest rate risk for certain of its variable rate debt, the Company uses interest rate swaps as part of its risk management strategy. These derivatives are designed to mitigate the risk of future interest rate increases by providing a fixed interest rate for a limited, pre-determined period of time. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involved the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. As of September 30, 2014, the Company had seven outstanding interest rate swap contracts that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk. Certain of the Company’s variable rate borrowings are not hedged, and therefore, to an extent, the Company has on-going exposure to interest rate movements.

The effective portion of the change in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and is subsequently reclassified into earnings as interest expense for the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings, which is when the interest expense is recognized on the related debt. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, there was no hedge ineffectiveness. The Company expects no hedge ineffectiveness in the next 12 months.

The following table summarizes the location and fair value of the cash flow hedges on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets:

6. FAIR VALUE

Fair value measurements are determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Fair value measurements are categorized into one of three levels of the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level of significant input used. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. Considerable judgment and a high degree of subjectivity are involved in developing these estimates. These estimates may differ from the actual amounts that the Company could realize upon settlement.

The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

Level 1—Quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2—Other observable inputs, either directly or indirectly, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, including:

 

    Quoted prices for similar assets/liabilities in active markets;

 

    Quoted prices for identical or similar assets/liabilities in non-active markets (e.g., few transactions, limited information, non-current prices, high variability over time);

 

    Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset/liability (e.g., interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, default rates); and

 

    Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by other observable market data.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data.

As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had no financial instruments that were transferred among the fair value hierarchy levels. The Company also had no non-financial assets or liabilities that were required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument:

Derivative Instruments. The derivative instruments are interest rate swaps. The interest rate swaps are standard cash flow hedges whose fair value is estimated using market-standard valuation models. Such models involve using market-based observable inputs, including interest rate curves. The Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. Due to the interest rate swaps being unique and not actively traded, the fair value is classified as Level 2. See “Note 5” above for further discussion of the Company’s derivative instruments.

The table below includes fair values for certain financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. The carrying values and fair values of these financial instruments were as follows:

Derivative instruments

    1,029          1,029          -              -         

In addition to the previously described methods and assumptions for the derivative instruments, the following are the methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of the other financial instruments:

Notes Receivable. The fair value is estimated by discounting the expected cash flows on the notes receivable at current rates at which the Company believes similar loans would be made. Credit spreads and market interest rates used to determine the fair value of these instruments are based on Level 3 inputs.

Lines of Credit. The fair value of the lines of credit is estimated using discounted cash flow methods based on the Company’s estimate of market interest rates, which the Company has determined to be its best estimate of current market spreads over comparable term benchmark rates of similar instruments. Credit spreads relating to the underlying instruments are based on Level 3 inputs.

Unsecured Term Loans. The fair value of the term loans is estimated using discounted cash flow methods based on the Company’s estimate of market interest rates, which the Company has determined to be its best estimate of current market spreads over comparable term benchmark rates of similar instruments. Credit spreads relating to the underlying instruments are based on Level 3 inputs.

Table of Contents

Mortgage Notes. The fair value of the mortgage notes is estimated using discounted cash flow methods based on the Company’s estimate of market interest rates, which the Company has determined to be its best estimate of current market spreads over comparable term benchmark rates of similar instruments. Credit spreads relating to the underlying instruments are based on Level 3 inputs.

The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, tenant receivables, accounts payable, and distributions payable approximate their carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. As such, these assets and liabilities are not listed in the carrying value and fair value table above.

9. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company relies on Industrial Income Advisors LLC (the “Advisor”), a related party, to manage the Company’s day-to-day operating and acquisition activities and to implement the Company’s investment strategy pursuant to the terms of a sixth amended and restated advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”), dated June 27, 2014, by and among the Company, Industrial Income Operating Partnership LP (the “Operating Partnership”), and the Advisor. The Advisor is considered to be a related party of the Company because certain indirect owners and officers of the Advisor serve as directors and/or executive officers of the Company. Dividend Capital Securities LLC (the “Dealer Manager”), also a related party, provides dealer manager services. The Advisor and Dealer Manager receive compensation in the form of fees and expense reimbursements for services relating to the Company’s public offerings and for the investment and management of the Company’s assets. The following summarizes the fees and expense reimbursements incurred for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013:

Sales Commissions. Sales commissions were payable to the Dealer Manager, all of which were reallowed to participating unaffiliated broker-dealers, and were equal to up to 7.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of primary shares in the Company’s follow-on offering.

Dealer Manager Fees. Dealer manager fees were payable to the Dealer Manager and were equal to up to 2.5% of the gross proceeds from sale of primary shares in the Company’s follow-on offering.

Acquisition Fees. Acquisition fees are payable to the Advisor in connection with the acquisition of real property, and will vary depending on whether the Advisor provides development services or development oversight services, each as described below, in connection with the acquisition (including, but not limited to, forward commitment acquisitions) or stabilization (including, but not limited to, development and value add transactions) of such real property, or both. The Company refers to such properties for which the Advisor provides development services or development oversight services as development real properties. For each real property acquired for which the Advisor does not provide development services or development oversight services, the acquisition fee is an amount equal to 1.0% of the total purchase price of the properties acquired (or the Company’s proportional interest therein), including in all instances real property held in joint ventures or co-ownership arrangements. In connection with providing services related to the development, construction, improvement or stabilization, including tenant improvements of development real properties, which the Company refers to collectively as development services, or

Table of Contents

overseeing the provision of these services by third parties on the Company’s behalf, which it refers to as development oversight services, the acquisition fee, which the Company refers to as the development acquisition fee, will equal up to 4.0% of total project cost, including debt, whether borrowed or assumed (or the Company’s proportional interest therein with respect to real properties held in joint ventures or co-ownership arrangements). If the Advisor engages a third party to provide development services directly to the Company, the third party will be compensated directly by the Company and the Advisor will receive the development acquisition fee if it provides the development oversight services.

Asset Management Fees. Asset management fees consist of a monthly fee of one-twelfth of 0.80% of the aggregate cost (including debt, whether borrowed or assumed) (before non-cash reserves and depreciation) of each real property asset within the Company’s portfolio (or the Company’s proportional interest therein with respect to real estate property held in joint ventures, co-ownership arrangements or real estate-related entities in which the Company owns a majority economic interest or that the Company consolidates for financial reporting purposes in accordance with GAAP). Asset management fees are also paid in connection with a disposition, which may involve a sale of one or more assets or a sale, merger, or other transaction, in an amount equal to 2.0% of the total consideration paid in connection with the disposition.

Organization and Offering Expenses. The Company reimburses the Advisor for cumulative organization expenses and for cumulative expenses of its offerings up to 1.75% of the gross offering proceeds from its offerings. Organizational costs are expensed and offering costs are reflected as a reduction in additional paid in capital. The Advisor or an affiliate of the Advisor is responsible for the payment of the Company’s cumulative organization and offering expenses to the extent the total of such cumulative expenses exceeds the 1.75% organization and offering expense reimbursements from the Company’s offerings, without recourse against or reimbursement by the Company.

Other Expense Reimbursements. In addition to the reimbursement of organization and offering expenses, the Company is also obligated, subject to certain limitations, to reimburse the Advisor for certain costs incurred by the Advisor or its affiliates, such as personnel and overhead expenses, in connection with the services provided to the Company under the Advisory Agreement, provided that the Advisor does not receive a specific fee for the activities which generate the expenses to be reimbursed. The Advisor may utilize its officers to provide such services and in certain instances those individuals may include the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer.

The table below summarizes the fees and expenses incurred by the Company for services provided by the Advisor and the Dealer Manager related to the services described above, and any related amounts payable:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

References to the terms “we,” “our,” or “us” refer to Industrial Income Trust Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. The following discussion and analysis should be read together with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes certain statements that may be deemed forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Such forward-looking statements relate to, without limitation, rent and occupancy growth, general conditions in the geographic area where we operate, our future debt and financial position, our future capital expenditures, future distributions and acquisitions (including the amount and nature thereof), other developments and trends of the real estate industry, business strategies and the expansion and growth of our operations. Forward-looking statements are generally identifiable by the use of the words “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “could,” “intend,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “continue,” “project,” or the negative of these words or other comparable terminology. These statements are not guarantees of future performance, and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict.

The forward-looking statements included herein are based upon our current expectations, plans, estimates, assumptions, and beliefs that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions, and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond our control. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, our actual results and performance could differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could have a material adverse effect on our operations and future prospects include, but are not limited to:

 

    The failure of acquisitions to perform as we expect;

 

    Our failure to successfully integrate acquired properties and operations;

 

    Unexpected delays or increased costs associated with our development projects;

 

    The availability of cash flows from operating activities for distributions and capital expenditures;

 

    Defaults on or non-renewal of leases by customers, lease renewals at lower than expected rent, or failure to lease properties at all or on favorable rents and terms;

 

    Difficulties in economic conditions generally and the real estate, debt, and securities markets specifically;

 

    Legislative or regulatory changes, including changes to the laws governing the taxation of real estate investment trusts (“REITs”);

 

    Our failure to obtain, renew, or extend necessary financing or access the debt or equity markets;

 

    Conflicts of interest arising out of our relationships with Industrial Income Advisors Group LLC (the “Sponsor”), the Advisor, and their affiliates;

 

    Risks associated with using debt to fund our business activities, including re-financing and interest rate risks;

 

    Increases in interest rates, operating costs, or greater than expected capital expenditures;

 

    Changes to GAAP; and

 

    Our ability to qualify as a REIT.

Any of the assumptions underlying forward-looking statements could prove to be inaccurate. Our stockholders are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. All forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the risk that actual results will differ materially from the expectations expressed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q will increase with the passage of time. Except as otherwise required by the federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, whether as a result of new information, future events, changed circumstances, or any other reason. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including, without limitation, the risks described under “Risk Factors,” the inclusion of such forward-looking statements should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that the objectives and plans set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q will be achieved.

OVERVIEW

General

Industrial Income Trust Inc. is a Maryland corporation formed on May 19, 2009 that has operated and elected to be treated as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2010. We were organized to make investments in income-producing real estate assets consisting primarily of high-quality distribution warehouses and other industrial properties that are leased to creditworthy corporate customers. We utilize an Umbrella Partnership Real Estate Investment Trust (“UPREIT”) organizational structure to hold all or substantially all of our assets through the Operating Partnership.

On December 18, 2009, we commenced our initial offering of up to $2.0 billion in shares of our common stock, including $1.5 billion in shares of common stock offered at a price of $10.00 per share and $500.0 million in shares offered under our distribution reinvestment plan at a price of $9.50 per share. On April 17, 2012, immediately following the end of our initial offering, which closed on April 16, 2012, we commenced a follow-on offering of up to $2.4 billion in shares of our common stock, including $1.8 billion in shares of common stock offered at a price of $10.40 per share and $600.0 million in shares offered under our distribution reinvestment plan at a price of $9.88 per share. On July 18, 2013, we terminated the offering of primary shares pursuant to our follow-on offering. We are continuing to offer and sell shares pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan, which we may terminate at any time, in our sole discretion. As of September 30, 2014, we had raised aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $2.2 billion from the sale of 213.5 million shares of our common stock in our public offerings, including approximately $128.1 million from the sale of 13.0 million shares of our common stock through our distribution reinvestment plan.

As of September 30, 2014, our consolidated real estate portfolio included 283 industrial buildings totaling approximately 57.6 million square feet with 544 customers throughout the U.S. with a weighted-average remaining lease term (based on square feet) of 5.4 years. Of the 283 industrial buildings we owned and managed as of September 30, 2014:

 

    277 industrial buildings totaling approximately 55.4 million square feet comprised our operating portfolio, which includes stabilized properties, and was 91% occupied (94% leased). The occupied rate reflects the square footage with a paying customer in place. The leased rate includes the occupied square footage and additional square footage with leases in place that have not yet commenced.

 

    6 industrial buildings totaling approximately 2.2 million square feet comprised our development portfolio, which includes buildings acquired with the intention to reposition or redevelop, or buildings recently completed which have not yet reached stabilization. We generally consider a building to be stabilized on the earlier to occur of the first anniversary of a building’s completion or a building achieving 90% occupancy.

We have used the net proceeds from our public offerings primarily to make investments in real estate assets. We will continue to focus on select acquisition and development opportunities consisting primarily of high-quality distribution warehouses and other industrial properties that we could acquire through funds provided by debt financings, cash flows generated from our operating activities, cash on-hand or proceeds from dispositions. The number and type of properties we may acquire and debt and other investments we may make will depend upon real estate market conditions and other circumstances existing at the time we make our investments.

Our primary investment objectives include the following:

 

    Preserving and protecting our stockholders’ capital contributions;

 

    Providing current income to our stockholders in the form of regular cash distributions; and

 

    Realizing capital appreciation upon the potential sale of our assets or other liquidity events.

There is no assurance that we will attain our investment objectives. Our charter places numerous limitations on us with respect to the manner in which we may invest our funds. In most cases these limitations cannot be changed unless our charter is amended, which may require the approval of our stockholders.

We may acquire assets free and clear of mortgage or other indebtedness by paying the entire purchase price in cash or equity securities, or a combination thereof, and we may selectively encumber all or only certain assets with debt. The proceeds from our borrowings may be used to fund investments, make capital expenditures, pay distributions, and for general corporate purposes. As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, our consolidated debt leverage ratio (calculated as the book value of our debt to total assets) was 53.6% and 51.9%, respectively.

In January 2014, our board of directors announced that it had engaged a third party advisor to assist us with the exploration of potential strategic alternatives, including but not limited to a possible sale, merger or listing of our common stock on a national securities exchange in connection with effecting a liquidity event. We and our board of directors continue to work with the third party advisor in exploring various potential strategic alternatives. There can be no assurance that we will determine to pursue any strategic alternatives or liquidity event.

Industrial Real Estate Outlook

The U.S. industrial property sector continues to show improvement supported by: (i) improving U.S. international trade volume as reflected in the increasing levels of both imported and exported goods; (ii) generally positive growth in U.S. gross domestic product (“GDP”) over the past three years; (iii) increased domestic consumer spending, including significant growth in online retailing (or e-tailing); (iv) positive net absorption in our targeted markets (the net change in total occupied industrial space); and (v) strong fundamental trends in both population and employment growth. While the strength and sustainability of the recovery remain uncertain, both U.S. GDP and consumer spending indicators remain positive and we believe will continue growing over the next several quarters, which is encouraging, as there is a high correlation between these statistics and industrial demand. Further, forecasted growth in employment and population should help drive consumer spending over the longer-term, leading to increased utilization of distribution warehouses. U.S. international trade value has grown with an approximate 8% compounded annual growth rate over the past five years. This resurgence in export / import levels has generated increased demand for industrial space in key U.S. logistic markets resulting in 18 consecutive quarters of positive net absorption and providing strong prospects for rent growth over the next several years.

Lending terms for direct commercial real estate loans and unsecured REIT financings have continued to improve; however, this trend may not continue, which could affect our ability to finance future operations and acquisition and development activities. We have managed, and expect to continue to manage, our financing strategy under the current mortgage lending and REIT financing environment by considering various lending sources, which may include long-term fixed rate mortgage loans; unsecured or secured lines of credit or term loans; private placement or public bond issuances; and assuming existing mortgage loans in connection with certain property acquisitions, or any combination of the foregoing.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Summary of 2014 Activities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we completed the following activities:

 

    As of September 30, 2014, we had 283 consolidated buildings aggregating 57.6 million rentable square feet as compared to 293 consolidated buildings aggregating 56.5 million rentable square feet as of September 30, 2013.

 

    During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we leased approximately 5.9 million square feet, which included 2.9 million square feet of new leases and expansions and 3.0 million square feet of renewals and future leases. Future leases represent new leases for units that are entered into while the units are occupied by the current customer.

 

    As of September 30, 2014, our operating portfolio was 91% occupied and 94% leased, as compared to 94% occupied and 95% leased as of December 31, 2013.

 

    As of September 30, 2014, we had three buildings under construction totaling approximately 0.3 million square feet and three buildings where construction had not yet commenced totaling approximately 0.3 million square feet.

 

    In April 2014, we sold 20 industrial buildings aggregating 2.8 million square feet for net proceeds of $125.3 million and recognized gains of $24.5 million. All of these buildings were previously classified as held for sale.

Our operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 are not directly comparable, as we were in the acquisition phase of our life cycle during 2013, and as such, the results of our operations were primarily impacted by the timing of our acquisitions and the equity raised through our public offerings.

Results for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2014 Compared to the Same Periods in 2013

The following table summarizes our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 as compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013. We evaluate the performance of operating properties we own and manage using a same store analysis because the population of properties in this analysis is consistent from period to period, thereby eliminating the effects of changes in the composition of the portfolio on performance measures. We have defined the same store portfolio to include operating properties owned for the entirety of both the current and prior reporting periods for which the operations had been stabilized. Other properties include buildings not meeting the same store criteria. The same store operating portfolio for the three month periods presented below included 226 buildings owned as of July 1, 2013, and represented 73% of total rentable square feet or 79% of total revenues as of September 30, 2014. The same store operating portfolio for the nine month periods presented below included 171 buildings owned as of January 1, 2013, and represented 58% of total rentable square feet or 62% of total revenues as of September 30, 2014.

Rental Revenues. Rental revenues are comprised of base rent, straight-line rent, amortization of above- and below-market lease assets and liabilities, and tenant reimbursement revenue. Total rental revenues increased significantly for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, as compared to the same periods in 2013, primarily due to the increase in non-same store rental revenues, which was attributable to the growth in our portfolio. For the three months ended September 30, 2014, non-same store rental revenues reflects the addition of 60 buildings we acquired since July 1, 2013, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, non-same store rental revenues reflects the addition of 113 buildings we acquired since January 1, 2013. The increase in the number of buildings acquired for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 includes the consolidated results of the 31 properties acquired in conjunction with our acquisition of our partner’s equity interest in the Fund I Partnership joint venture that were previously unconsolidated. In addition, the non-same store rental revenues include the results of the 20 buildings we sold in April 2014. Same store rental revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2014 increased by $1.0 million, or 1.7%, as compared to the same period in 2013, primarily due to an increase in tenant reimbursement revenue, which was driven by higher reimbursable expenses, as well as an increase in base rent, which was driven by rental rate increases and slightly higher occupancy in the same store operating portfolio. Same store rental revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 increased by $4.5 million, or 3.2%, as compared to the same period in 2013, primarily due to an increase in tenant reimbursement revenue, which was driven by higher reimbursable expenses, receipt of early termination fees and an increase in base rent, which was driven by rental rate increases and slightly higher occupancy in the same store operating portfolio.

Rental Expenses. Rental expenses include certain property operating expenses typically reimbursed by our customers such as real estate taxes, property insurance, property management fees, repair and maintenance, and certain non-recoverable expenses such as consulting services and roof repairs; and property operating expenses for unoccupied spaces. Total rental expenses increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, as compared to the same periods in 2013, primarily due to an increase in non-same store rental expenses attributable to the significant net increase in the number of buildings owned compared to the same periods during 2013. Same store rental expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2014 decreased by $0.2 million, or 1.4%, as compared to the same period in 2013, primarily due to a decrease in non-recoverable expenses. Same store rental expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 increased by $2.5 million, or 6.9%, as compared to the same period in 2013, primarily due to an increase in certain real estate taxes and higher snow removal costs due to the extreme snowfall in the first quarter of 2014, partially offset by lower insurance premiums.

Other Income and Expenses. Other expenses increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, as compared to the same periods in 2013, primarily due to:

 

    an increase in real estate-related depreciation and amortization expense resulting from the $205.8 million growth of our investment in real estate properties since September 30, 2013;

 

    an increase in interest expense primarily due to an increase in average net borrowings under our lines of credit of $42.5 million and $93.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 as compared to the same periods in 2013; and

 

    an increase in asset management fees as a result of the significant growth of our portfolio since September 30, 2013; all partially offset by:

 

    a gain of approximately $24.5 million as a result of the disposition of 20 buildings in April 2014; and

 

    a decrease in acquisition-related expenses as a result of reduced acquisition activity in 2014 as compared to 2013.

ADDITIONAL MEASURES OF PERFORMANCE

Net Operating Income (“NOI”)

We define NOI as GAAP rental revenues less GAAP rental expenses. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, NOI was $57.0 million and $172.8 million, respectively, as compared to $48.3 million and $128.0 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013. Same store NOI for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 increased by $1.2 million, or 2.8%, and $2.1 million, or 2.0%, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2013. We consider NOI to be an appropriate supplemental performance measure and believe NOI provides useful information to our investors regarding our financial condition and results of operations because NOI reflects the operating performance of our properties and excludes certain items that are not considered to be controllable in connection with the management of the properties, such as real estate-related depreciation and amortization, acquisition-related expenses, general and administrative expenses, and interest expense. However, NOI should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our financial performance since it excludes such expenses, which could materially impact our results of operations. Further, our NOI may not be comparable to that of other real estate companies as they may use different methodologies for calculating NOI. Therefore, we believe net loss, as defined by GAAP, to be the most appropriate measure to evaluate our overall performance. Refer to “Results of Operations—Results for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2014 Compared to the Same Periods in 2013” above for a reconciliation of our net loss to NOI for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013.

Funds from Operations (“FFO”), Company-Defined FFO and Modified Funds from Operations (“MFFO”)

We believe that FFO, Company-defined FFO, and MFFO, in addition to net loss and cash flows from operating activities as defined by GAAP, are useful supplemental performance measures that our management uses to evaluate our consolidated operating performance. However, these supplemental, non-GAAP measures should not be considered as an alternative to net loss or to cash flows from operating activities as an indication of our performance and are not intended to be used as a liquidity measure indicative of cash flow available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions to our stockholders. No single measure can provide users of financial information with sufficient information and only our disclosures read as a whole can be relied upon to adequately portray our financial position, liquidity, and results of operations. In addition, other REITs may define FFO and similar measures differently and choose to treat acquisition and strategic transaction costs and potentially other accounting line items in a manner different from us due to specific differences in investment and operating strategy or for other reasons.

FFO. As defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), FFO is a non-GAAP measure that excludes certain items such as real estate-related depreciation and amortization and gains or losses on sales of assets. We believe FFO is a meaningful supplemental measure of our operating performance that is useful to investors because depreciation and amortization in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. In addition, FFO adjusts for non-recurring gains or losses on the acquisition of certain joint venture properties. We use FFO as an indication of our consolidated operating performance and as a guide to making decisions about future investments.

Company-defined FFO. Similar to FFO, Company-defined FFO is a non-GAAP measure that excludes real estate-related depreciation and amortization and gains or losses on sales of assets, and also excludes non-recurring acquisition and strategic transaction costs (including acquisition fees paid to the Advisor) and a non-recurring loss from the early extinguishment of debt, each of which are characterized as expenses in determining net loss under GAAP. Loss from the early extinguishment of debt was excluded because it was a loss recognized as part of a one-time transaction. Strategic transaction costs, which are costs incurred in connection with our exploration of potential strategic alternatives, as described in “—Overview—General” above, represent non-recurring costs that make our operating results on an on-going basis less comparable and, as such, are excluded from Company-defined FFO. Acquisition and strategic transaction costs are paid in cash out of operational cash flow, additional debt, net proceeds from the sale of properties, or ancillary cash flows, and, as a result, such costs negatively impact our operating performance and cash flows from operating activities during the period they are incurred. As such, Company-defined FFO may not be a complete indicator of our operating performance, especially during periods in which properties are being acquired or strategic transactions costs are being incurred, and may not be a useful measure of the long-term operating performance of our properties if we do not continue to operate our business plan as disclosed.

MFFO. As defined by the Investment Program Association (“IPA”), MFFO is a non-GAAP supplemental financial performance measure used to evaluate our operating performance. Similar to FFO, MFFO excludes items such as real estate-related depreciation and amortization and gains or losses on sales of assets. Similar to Company-defined FFO, MFFO excludes acquisition costs and loss from the early extinguishment of debt. MFFO also excludes straight-line rent and amortization of above- and below-market leases. In addition, there are certain other MFFO adjustments as defined by the IPA that are not applicable to us and are not included in our presentation of MFFO.

Management does not include historical acquisition costs in its evaluation of future operating performance, as such costs are one-time costs related to the acquisition. In addition, management does not include the following in its evaluation of future operating performance: (i) strategic transaction costs that represent one-time costs and (ii) a non-recurring loss from the early extinguishment of debt as the transaction that resulted in the loss was driven by factors relating to the capital markets, rather than factors specific to the on-going operating performance of our properties. We use Company-defined FFO and MFFO to, among other things: (i) evaluate and compare the potential performance of the portfolio after the acquisition phase is complete, and (ii) evaluate potential performance to determine liquidity event strategies. We believe Company-defined FFO and MFFO facilitate a comparison to other REITs that are not engaged in significant acquisition activity and have similar operating characteristics as us. We believe investors are best served if the information that is made available to them allows them to align their analyses and evaluation with the same performance metrics used by management in planning and executing our business strategy. We believe that these performance metrics will assist investors in evaluating the potential performance of the portfolio. However, these supplemental, non-GAAP measures are not necessarily indicative of future performance and should not be considered as an alternative to net loss or to cash flows from operating activities and are not intended to be used as a liquidity measure indicative of cash flow available to fund our cash needs. Neither the SEC, NAREIT, nor any regulatory body has passed judgment on the acceptability of the adjustments used to calculate Company-defined FFO and MFFO. In the future, the SEC, NAREIT, or a regulatory body may decide to standardize the allowable adjustments across the non-traded REIT industry at which point we may adjust our calculation and characterization of Company-defined FFO and MFFO.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity

Our primary sources of capital for meeting our cash requirements are cash flows generated by our real estate operations, debt financings and refinancings, and asset sales. Our principal uses of funds are and will continue to be for select acquisition and development of properties and other investments, operating expenses, distributions to our stockholders, payments under our debt obligations, and capital expenditures, which we expect to be able to pay over the next 12 months from our primary sources of capital. We believe that our cash on-hand, cash flows from operations, and any financing and disposition activities will be sufficient to meet our anticipated future operating, distribution, debt service, and development and other capital requirements.

Cash Flows. The following table summarizes our cash flows, as determined on a GAAP basis, for the following periods:

 

     For the Nine Months  
     Ended September 30,  

(in thousands)

   2014      2013  

Total cash provided by (used in):

     

Operating activities

     $ 81,126           $ 54,727     

Investing activities

     (93,614)          (1,041,404)

Net (decrease) increase in cash

     $         (7,197)          $ 3,101     
  

 

 

    

 

 

 

Cash provided by operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 increased by $26.4 million as compared to the same period in 2013, primarily driven by the growth of our real estate portfolio, which resulted in a significant increase in net cash flows generated from our operating properties, partially offset by an increase in net working capital accounts.

Cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 decreased by $947.8 million as compared to the same period in 2013, primarily due to a reduction in our acquisition activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013 and by proceeds from the disposition of real estate properties, partially offset by an increase in capital expenditures, including development activity, tenant improvements and leasing commissions, and property and maintenance investments.

Cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 decreased by $984.5 million as compared to the same period in 2013, primarily as a result of us closing our offering of primary shares pursuant to our follow-on offering in July 2013, and no longer being in the acquisition phase of our life cycle.

Capital Resources and Uses of Liquidity

In addition to cash flows from operations and cash and cash equivalent balances available, our capital resources and uses of liquidity are as follows:

Lines of Credit. As of September 30, 2014, we had $223.0 million outstanding under our unsecured line of credit. The unused portion was $277.0 million, of which $75.5 million was available. Our unsecured line of credit is available for general corporate purposes, including but not limited to the acquisition and operation of industrial properties and other permitted investments. As of September 30, 2014, we had $85.0 million outstanding under our secured line of credit. The unused portion was $55.0 million, of which $36.9 million was available. Our secured line of credit is available to finance the acquisition and operation of collateral properties. Amounts under this line of credit become available when properties are added as collateral pursuant to the loan agreement.

Unsecured Term Loans. As of September 30, 2014, we had $500.0 million outstanding under our unsecured term loan facilities with a weighted-average stated interest rate of 2.13%, which includes the effect of the interest rate swap agreements relating to our $200.0 million unsecured term loan. Our unsecured term loans are available for general corporate purposes, including but not limited to the acquisition and operation of industrial properties and other permitted investments.

Mortgage Note Financings. As of September 30, 2014, we had property-level borrowings of approximately $1.1 billion outstanding. These borrowings are secured by mortgages or deeds of trust and related assignments and security interests in the collateralized properties, and had a weighted-average stated interest rate of 4.23%, which includes the effect of an interest rate swap agreement. Refer to “Note 5” to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional details relating to our interest rate swaps. The proceeds from the mortgage note financings were used to partially finance certain of our acquisitions, and can be used to finance our capital requirements, which may include the funding of future acquisitions, capital expenditures, distributions, and general corporate purposes.

Debt Covenants. Our mortgage notes and secured line of credit contain various property level covenants, including customary affirmative and negative covenants. In addition, the unsecured line of credit and unsecured term loans contain certain corporate level financial covenants, including leverage ratio, fixed charge coverage ratio, and tangible net worth thresholds. These covenants may limit our ability to incur additional debt, make borrowings under our lines of credit, or pay distributions. We were in compliance with all debt covenants as of September 30, 2014.

Distributions. We intend to continue to make distributions on a quarterly basis. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, 50% of our total distributions were paid from cash flows from operating activities, as determined on a GAAP basis, and 50% of our total distributions were funded from sources other than cash flows from operating activities, specifically with proceeds from the issuance of distribution reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) shares. Some or all of our future distributions may be paid from these sources, as well as from sales of assets, refinancing proceeds and our cash balances. We have not established a cap on the amount of our distributions that may be paid from any of these sources. Distributions will be authorized at the discretion of our board of directors, and will depend on, among other things, current and projected cash requirements, tax considerations and other factors deemed relevant by our board. Our board of directors has authorized cash distributions at a quarterly rate of $0.15625 per share of common stock for the fourth quarter of 2014.

There can be no assurances that the current distribution rate or amount per share will be maintained. We may need to utilize cash flows from financing activities, as determined on a GAAP basis, to supplement the payment of cash distributions, which if insufficient could negatively impact our ability to pay distributions.

The following table outlines sources used to pay distributions for the periods indicated below:

(2) Stockholders may elect to have cash distributions reinvested in shares of our common stock through our distribution reinvestment plan. Participation in our distribution reinvestment plan has averaged approximately 48% of total distributions since inception.

Redemptions. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, we received eligible redemption requests related to approximately 1.5 million and 0.7 million shares of our common stock, respectively, all of which we redeemed using cash flows from financing activities, for an aggregate amount of approximately $14.8 million, or an average price of $10.01 per share, and $6.9 million, or an average price of $9.83 per share, respectively. The aggregate amount expended for redemptions under our share redemption program is subject to certain caps not to exceed the aggregate proceeds received from the sale of shares pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan. However, to the extent that the aggregate proceeds received from the sale of shares pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan are not at a level sufficient to fund redemption requests, subject to a five percent limitation as discussed in Part II, Item 2. “Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds—Share Redemption Program,” our board of directors may, in its sole discretion, choose to use other sources of funds to redeem shares of our common stock. Such sources of funds could include cash on hand and cash available from borrowings, to the extent that such funds are not otherwise dedicated to a particular use, such as working capital, cash distributions to stockholders, debt repayment, and purchases of property investments. Our board of directors may, in its sole discretion, amend, suspend, or terminate the share redemption program at any time if it determines that the funds available to fund the share redemption program are needed for other business or operational purposes or that amendment, suspension, or termination of the share redemption program is in the best interests of our stockholders.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

A summary of future obligations as of December 31, 2013, was disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, as filed with the SEC on February 19, 2014 (“2013 Form 10-K”). Except as otherwise disclosed in “Note 5” of our condensed consolidated financial statements relating to our principal payments due on our debt for the next five years and thereafter, there were no material changes outside of the ordinary course of business.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

As of September 30, 2014, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements, other than those disclosed under contractual obligations that have or are reasonably likely to have an effect on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources.

RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity,” which changes the criteria at which a disposal will qualify as a discontinued operation and requires new disclosure of both discontinued operations and certain other disposals that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation. Under the revised standard, the definition of discontinued operations has been changed so that only disposals of components that represent strategic shifts qualify for discontinued operations reporting. As permitted, we adopted ASU 2014-08 early, and it became effective for us for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on our results of operations, financial position or liquidity.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” which provides guidance for revenue recognition and supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition.” The standard is based on the principle that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. The new guidance specifically excludes revenue derived from lease contracts from its scope. The standard will be effective for us in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. Early adoption is not permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the SEC. The preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires significant management judgments, assumptions, and estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and our disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. With different estimates or assumptions, materially different amounts could be reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. For a detailed description of our critical accounting estimates, see Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2013 Form 10-K. As of September 30, 2014, our critical accounting estimates have not changed from those described in our 2013 Form 10-K.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

Our market risk is exposure to changes in interest rates. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows, and optimize overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, we primarily borrow on a fixed interest rate basis for longer-term debt and utilize interest rate swap agreements on certain variable interest rate debt in order to limit the effects of changes in interest rates on our results of operations. As part of our risk management strategy, we enter into interest swap agreements with high-quality counterparties to manage the impact of variable interest rates on interest expense. As of September 30, 2014, our debt instruments were comprised of mortgage note financings, unsecured term loans, and borrowings under our lines of credit.

 

27


Table of Contents

Fixed Interest Rate Debt. As of September 30, 2014, our consolidated fixed interest rate debt consisted of mortgage notes and our $200.0 million unsecured term loan and represented 68.3% of our total consolidated debt (83.7% of our total consolidated debt assuming the effects of the forward-starting interest rate swap agreements relating to our $300.0 million unsecured term loan). Interest rate fluctuations will generally not affect our future earnings or cash flows on our fixed interest rate debt unless such instruments mature or are otherwise terminated. However, interest rate changes could affect the fair value of our fixed interest rate debt. As of September 30, 2014, the fair value and the carrying value of our consolidated fixed interest rate debt were approximately $1.4 billion and $1.3 billion, respectively. The fair value estimate of our fixed interest rate debt was estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis utilizing rates we would expect to pay for debt of a similar type and remaining maturity if the loans were originated on September 30, 2014. As we expect to hold our fixed interest rate debt instruments to maturity, based on the underlying structure of the debt instrument, and that the amounts due under such instruments are limited to the outstanding principal balance and any accrued and unpaid interest, we do not expect that market fluctuations in interest rates, and the resulting change in fair value of our fixed interest rate debt instruments, would have a significant impact on our operating cash flows.

Variable Interest Rate Debt. As of September 30, 2014, our consolidated variable interest rate debt consisted of borrowings under our lines of credit, our $300.0 million unsecured term loan, and a mortgage note, and represented 31.7% of our total consolidated debt (16.3% of our total consolidated debt assuming the effects of the forward-starting interest rate swap agreements relating to our $300.0 million unsecured term loan). Interest rate changes in LIBOR could impact our future earnings and cash flows, but would not significantly affect the fair value of the variable interest rate debt instruments. As of September 30, 2014, we were exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on approximately $617.1 million of aggregate consolidated borrowings. A hypothetical 10% change in the average interest rate on the outstanding balance of our variable interest rate debt as of September 30, 2014, would change our annual interest expense by approximately $240,000.

Derivative Instruments. As of September 30, 2014, we had seven outstanding interest rate swaps that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, with a total notional amount of $507.6 million. See “Note 5” to the condensed consolidated financial statements for more information concerning our derivative instruments.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the direction of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2014. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2014, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the three months ended September 30, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our 2013 Form 10-K, which could materially affect our business, financial condition, and/or future results. The risks described in our 2013 Form 10-K are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and/or operating results.

With the exception of the revised risk factors set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our 2013 Form 10-K.

RISKS RELATED TO THE ADVISOR AND ITS AFFILIATES

We will compete with entities sponsored or advised by affiliates of our Sponsor for opportunities to acquire or sell investments, and for customers, which may have an adverse impact on our operations.

We will compete with entities sponsored or advised by affiliates of our Sponsor whether existing or created in the future, for opportunities to acquire, finance or sell certain types of properties. We may also buy, finance or sell properties at the same time as entities sponsored or advised by affiliates of our Sponsor are buying, financing or selling properties. In this regard, there is a risk that the Advisor will purchase a property that provides lower returns to us than a property purchased by entities sponsored or advised by affiliates of our Sponsor. Certain entities sponsored or advised by affiliates of our Sponsor own and/or manage properties in geographical areas in which we expect to own properties. Therefore, our properties may compete for customers with other properties owned and/or managed by entities sponsored or advised by affiliates of our Sponsor. The Advisor may face conflicts of interest when evaluating customer leasing opportunities for our properties and other properties owned and/or managed by entities sponsored or advised by affiliates of our Sponsor and these conflicts of interest may have a negative impact on our ability to attract and retain customers.

The Sponsor and the Advisor have agreed, subject to changes approved by the Conflicts Resolution Committee, that (the “IPT/IIT Allocation Arrangement”): if an investment is equally suitable for Industrial Property Trust Inc. (“IPT”) and us, until such time as all of the proceeds from IPT’s public offerings have been fully invested and except as noted below, IPT will have priority over us with respect to: (i) industrial properties (including all new stabilized, value add, and forward commitment opportunities, collectively “Core Industrial Investment Opportunities”) located in the U.S. or Mexico; and (ii) debt investments related to industrial properties located in the U.S. or Mexico; provided, however, that: (a) other than development or re-development opportunities associated with existing IPT investments (e.g., development on excess land or expansion of an existing facility) which opportunities shall remain with IPT, we will have priority with respect to all opportunities related to development of industrial properties (including all new speculative and build-to-suit opportunities, collectively, “Industrial Development Opportunities”) located in the U.S. or Mexico; and (b) when, from time to time, we have additional capital to deploy (either through the sale of assets or otherwise) into Core Industrial Investment Opportunities, and, when, from time to time, IPT has capital available to deploy into Industrial Development Opportunities, our CEO and regional Managing Directors (who currently serve in similar positions at IPT) will determine in their sole discretion for which program the investment is most suitable by utilizing the following allocation factors:

 

    The investment objectives and criteria of each program;

 

    The general real property sector or debt investment allocation targets of each program and any targeted geographic concentration;

 

    The cash requirements of each program;

 

    The strategic proximity of the investment opportunity to other assets owned by each program;

 

    The effect of the acquisition both on diversification of each program’s investments by type of commercial property and geographic area, and on diversification of the customers of its properties;

 

    The policy of each program relating to leverage of investments;

 

    The anticipated cash flow of each program;

 

    The tax effects of the purchase on each program;

 

    The size of the investment; and

 

    The amount of funds available to each program and the length of time such funds have been available for investment.

Any such determinations will be reported, at least quarterly, to our Conflicts Resolution Committee in order to evaluate whether we are receiving our fair share of opportunities.

In addition, Dividend Capital Diversified Property Fund Inc. (“DPF”) has priority over us and IPT (collectively, “IPT/IIT”) for all other non-industrial real estate or non-industrial debt investment opportunities until such time as it is no longer engaged in a public offering and all of the proceeds from its public offerings have been fully invested. Further, in recognition of the fact that DPF also desires to acquire industrial properties and industrial debt investments and has a separate day-to-day asset acquisition team, the Sponsor and the Advisor have agreed, subject to changes approved or required by our Conflicts Resolution Committee, that (1) if an industrial property or industrial debt opportunity is a widely-marketed, brokered transaction, DPF, on the one hand, and IPT/IIT, on the other hand, may simultaneously and independently pursue such transaction, and (2) if an industrial property or industrial debt opportunity is not a widely-marketed, brokered transaction, then, as between DPF, on the one hand, and IPT/IIT, on the other hand, the management team and employees of each company generally are free to pursue any such industrial property or industrial debt opportunity at any time, subject to certain allocations if non-widely-marketed transactions are first sourced by certain shared employees, managers or directors.

We may use the most recent price paid to acquire a share in the Follow-On Offering as the estimated value of our shares until we are required to disclose an estimated per share value of our common stock. The purchase price stockholders paid for shares of our common stock in our public offerings may be higher than such estimated per share value. The estimated per share value may not be an accurate reflection of the fair market value of our assets and liabilities and likely will not represent the amount of net proceeds that would result if we were liquidated or dissolved.

To assist the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) members and their associated persons that participated in our public offerings, pursuant to FINRA Rule 2310, we disclose in each annual report distributed to stockholders a per share estimated value of our shares, the method by which it was developed, and the date of the data used to develop the estimated value. For these purposes, the estimated value of our common stock was deemed to be $10.40 per share as of December 31, 2013. The basis for this valuation is the fact that this was the most recent primary share offering price in the Follow-On Offering to third-party investors through arms-length transactions. We will continue to use the most recent primary share offering price as the estimated per share value. We are not obligated and do not expect to disclose an estimated per share value of our common stock based on an appraisal of our assets until 18 months following the date on which the Follow-On Offering was terminated, regardless of whether valuations or appraisals are undertaken in connection with other activities and regardless of whether preliminary or other appraisals are obtained in preparation for the disclosure of our estimated share value.

Although this estimated value represents the most recent price at which most investors were willing to purchase shares in the Follow-On Offering, it is likely to differ from the price that a stockholder would receive upon the events described below because: (i) there is no public trading market for the shares at this time; (ii) the $10.40 primary offering price involved the payment of underwriting compensation and other directed selling efforts, which payments and efforts are likely to produce a higher sale price than could otherwise be obtained; (iii) the estimated value does not reflect, and is not derived from, the fair market value of our assets because the amount of proceeds available for investment from our primary public offerings is net of selling commissions, dealer manager fees, other organization and offering costs and acquisition and origination fees and expenses; (iv) the estimated value does not take into account how market fluctuations affect the value of our investments, including how disruptions in the financial and real estate markets may affect the values of our investments; and (v) the estimated value does not take into account how developments related to individual assets may have increased or decreased the value of our portfolio.

The current price which is based on the most recent offering price and any estimated per share value that we disclose in the future may not be an accurate reflection of the fair value of our assets and liabilities in accordance with GAAP, may not reflect the price at which we would be able to sell all or substantially all of our assets or the outstanding shares of our common stock in an arm’s length transaction, may not represent the value that stockholders could realize upon a sale of the Company or upon the liquidation of our assets and settlement of our liabilities, and may not be indicative of the price at which shares of our common stock would trade if they were listed on a national securities exchange. In addition, the current price and any estimated per share value that we disclose in the future may not be the equivalent of the disclosure of a market price by an open-ended real estate fund.

Currently there are no SEC, FINRA, federal or state rules in effect that establish requirements concerning the methodologies to employ in determining an estimated per share value. Any methodologies used to determine the estimated per share value of our common stock may be based upon assumptions, estimates and judgments that may not be accurate or complete, such that, if different property-specific and general real estate and capital market assumptions, estimates and judgments were used, it could result in an estimated value per share that is significantly different.

The actual value of shares that we repurchase under our share redemption program may be substantially less or more than what we pay.

Under our share redemption program, shares currently may be repurchased at varying prices depending on (a) the number of years the shares have been held, (b) the purchase price paid for the shares and (c) whether the redemptions are sought upon a stockholder’s death or disability. As described below, the offering price of primary shares of our common stock in our public offerings was arbitrarily

Table of Contents

determined. Although the offering price represents the most recent price at which our investors were willing to purchase such shares, it does not accurately represent the current value of our assets per share of our common stock at any particular time and may be higher or lower than the actual value of our assets per share at such time. Accordingly, when we repurchase shares of our common stock at or below the offering price, the actual value of the shares that we repurchase may be less, and the repurchase could be dilutive to our remaining stockholders. Alternatively, the actual value of the shares that we repurchase may be more than the redemption price and a stockholder participating in the redemption plan may not benefit from any increase in the value of the underlying assets.

We sold shares of our common stock in fixed price offerings, and continue to sell shares pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan in a fixed price offering, and the fixed offering price may not accurately represent the current value of our assets at any particular time; therefore, the purchase price paid for shares of our common stock in our distribution reinvestment plan may be higher or lower than the value of our assets per share of our common stock at the time of purchase or at any time in the future.

Our public offerings were fixed price offerings, which means that the offering price for shares of our common stock was fixed and did not vary based on the underlying value of our assets at any time. Our board of directors arbitrarily determined the offering price for our public offerings, including our ongoing offering pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan, in its sole discretion. The various factors considered by our board of directors in determining the fixed offering price for our public offerings were based on a number of assumptions and estimates that may not be accurate or complete. The fixed offering price established for shares of our common stock may not now or in the future accurately represent the current value of our assets per share of our common stock at any particular time and may be higher or lower than the actual value of our assets per share at any time. In addition, the fixed offering price may not be indicative of either the price you would receive if you sold your shares, the price at which shares of our common stock would trade if they were listed on a national securities exchange or if we were to execute a liquidity event or were to liquidate or dissolve.

 

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Share Redemption Program

Per the terms of our amended and restated share redemption program (the “Amended SRP”), subject to certain restrictions and limitations, a stockholder may redeem shares of our common stock for cash at a price that may reflect a discount from the purchase price paid for the shares of common stock being redeemed. Shares of common stock must be held for a minimum of one year, subject to certain exceptions. We are not obligated to redeem shares of our common stock under the share redemption program. We presently limit the number of shares to be redeemed during any consecutive 12-month period to no more than five percent of the number of shares of common stock outstanding at the beginning of such 12-month period. We also limit redemptions in accordance with a quarterly cap.

After a stockholder has held shares of our common stock for a minimum of one year, our share redemption program may provide a limited opportunity for a stockholder to have its shares of common stock redeemed, subject to certain restrictions and limitations, at a price that may reflect a discount from the purchase price of the shares of our common stock being redeemed (the “Original Purchase Price”), and the amount of the discount (the “Holding Period Discount”) will vary based upon the length of time that a stockholder has held its shares of our common stock subject to redemption, as described in the table below (the “Holding Period Discount Table”), which has been posted on our website at www.industrialincome.com. Except as noted below, the redemption price (the “Redemption Price”) will be calculated by multiplying the Original Purchase Price by the applicable Holding Period Discount. Shares purchased through our distribution reinvestment plan, regardless of the offering in which they were purchased, will not be subject to the Holding Period Discount. With respect to shares of our common stock purchased pursuant to our initial public offering, including shares purchased through our distribution reinvestment plan pursuant to our initial public offering, the Redemption Price will be determined as described above, however the Original Purchase Price paid for such shares first will be increased by four percent, which is the amount by which the offering price increased between our initial public offering and our second public offering (the “Initial Offering Adjustment”) subject to the adjustments applicable to shares of common stock in connection with a redemption request with respect to the death of a stockholder, as described below. The redemption price is not intended to reflect the current value of shares being redeemed and such amount does not reflect the value that a stockholder might receive from selling his or her shares to a third party or upon a liquidity event. Currently, we are not required to disclose a new estimated price per share until January 2015.

In the event that a stockholder seeks to redeem all of its shares of our common stock, shares of our common stock purchased pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan may be excluded from the foregoing one-year holding period requirement, in the discretion of our board of directors. If a stockholder has made more than one purchase of our common stock (other than through our distribution reinvestment plan), the one-year holding period will be calculated separately with respect to each such purchase. In addition, for purposes of the one-year holding period, holders of Operating Partnership Units (“OP Units”) who exchange their OP Units for shares of our common stock shall be deemed to have owned their shares as of the date they were issued their OP Units. Neither the one-year holding period nor the Redemption Caps (as defined in the Amended SRP) will apply in the event of the death of a stockholder; provided, however, that any such redemption request with respect to the death of a stockholder must be submitted to us within 18 months after the date of death, as further described in the Amended SRP. Shares of common stock subject to a redemption request with respect to the death of a stockholder will be redeemed at a price equal to (i) with respect to shares purchased in the follow-on offering, 100% of the Original Purchase Price paid by the deceased stockholder for the shares without application of the Holding Period Discount, and (ii) with respect to shares purchased in our initial public offering, the greater of (x) 100% of the Original Purchase Price paid by the deceased stockholder for the shares, without application of the Initial Offering Adjustment or the Holding Period Discount and (y) the Redemption Price determined as described in the paragraph preceding the Holding Period Discount Table, including application of the Initial Offering Adjustment and the Holding Period Discount. Our board of directors reserves the right in its sole discretion at any time and from time to time to (a) waive the one-year holding period and either of the Redemption Caps (defined in the Amended SRP) in the event of the disability (as such term is defined in Section 72(m)(7) of the Internal Revenue Code) of a stockholder, (b) reject any request for redemption for any reason, or (c) reduce the number of shares of our common stock allowed to be redeemed under the share redemption program. A stockholder’s request for redemption in reliance on any of the waivers that may be granted in the event of the disability of the stockholder must be submitted within 18 months of the initial determination of the stockholder’s disability, as further described in the Amended SRP. If our board of directors waives the one-year holding period in the event of the disability of a stockholder, such stockholder will have its shares redeemed as described in the paragraph preceding the Holding Period Discount Table as though the stockholder has held its shares for one year, including application of the Initial Offering Adjustment (if applicable) and the Holding Period Discount. In all other cases in the event of the disability of a stockholder, such stockholder will have its shares redeemed as described in the paragraph preceding the Holding Period Discount Table. Furthermore, any shares redeemed in excess of the Quarterly Redemption Cap (as defined in the Amended SRP) as a result of the death or disability of a stockholder will be included in calculating the following quarter’s redemption limitations. At any time we are engaged in an offering of shares of our common stock, the per share price for shares of our common stock redeemed under our redemption program will never be greater than the then-current offering price of our shares of our common stock sold in the primary offering.
