Broadstone Net Lease, Inc. Reports 2018 Second Quarter Operating Results

 

ROCHESTER, N.Y. – Broadstone Net Lease, Inc. (“BNL,” ”we,” or ”us”), a privately offered real estate investment trust (“REIT”) managed by Broadstone Real Estate, LLC (“Broadstone”), today filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 (the “Q2 2018 10-Q”), which is available free of charge on the SEC’s public website and on our website at:  http://investors.bnl.broadstone.com.

 

We are pleased to report another quarter of strong performance for BNL,” said Chris Czarnecki, BNL’s Chief Executive Officer. “During the second quarter, the REIT acquired 14 properties for more than $154 million, which further diversified and strengthened the quality of our tenant base. With a robust and attractive pipeline of potential acquisition targets and deals in progress, on July 18, 2018, we increased BNL’s monthly equity cap from $15 million to $20 million. With continued strong investor interest and the successful completion of BNL’s second debt private placement offering that we announced earlier this quarter, we feel that BNL has exceptional access to capital and remains on track to meet its growth and performance objectives for the year.”

Revenues

 

Revenues increased by approximately $13.3 million, or 30.6%, to $57.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, compared to $43.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, revenues increased by approximately $26.7 million, or 31.2%, to $112.6 million compared to $85.9 million in the same period in 2017. The increase in revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, is primarily attributable to the growth in our real estate portfolio. We acquired $683.6 million in real estate, excluding capitalized acquisition expenses, throughout 2017, mainly during the second half of the year, and $254.8 million in real estate, excluding capitalized acquisition expenses, during the first six months of 2018. The 41 new properties acquired in the first six months of 2018 are expected to contribute to reported year-over-year growth over the remainder of the year.

 

Net Income

 

Net income increased by $2.4 million, or 15.0%, to $18.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, compared to $16.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. Net earnings per diluted share decreased $0.03 during the same period, to $0.86 per share. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, net income increased by $7.6 million, or 25.7%, to $37.4 million, compared to approximately $29.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2017. Net earnings per diluted share increased $0.07 during the same period, to $1.77 per share.

 

For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the increase in net income was mainly attributable to increased operating earnings generated by the growth in our real estate investment portfolio as compared to the prior year, combined with decreased expenses associated with the extinguishment of debt. During the second quarter of 2017, we negotiated our current revolving credit facility, replacing debt associated with a prior facility. These factors were partially offset by an increase in interest expense, attributable to increased outstanding borrowings on our unsecured credit facilities in 2018, and to our recognizing a gain of $1.2 million associated with the extinguishment of an interest rate swap concurrent with the paydown of a mortgage in the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. In addition, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, we recognized $4.3 million and $7.6 million of gains on sale of real estate, respectively, compared to $5.5 million and $6.3 million, respectively, of such gains in the comparable prior-year periods.

The 15.0% growth in net income used in the numerator of the earnings per share calculation for the three months ended June 30, 2018, was more than offset by the effect of a 19.0% increase in the number of diluted weighted average shares of common stock outstanding used in the denominator of the calculation as compared to the prior year. This resulted in a reported $0.03 decline in earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2017. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, 25.7% growth in net income was somewhat tempered by a 20.4% increase in the number of diluted weighted average shares outstanding, as compared to the prior year.

 

FFO

 

FFO increased $9.1 million, or 36.1%, to $34.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, compared to approximately $25.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. FFO per diluted share increased by $0.20 during the same period, to $1.60 per share. FFO increased $16.4 million, or 31.1%, to $69.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to $52.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. FFO per diluted share increased by $0.27 during the same period, to $3.28 per share.

 

Consistent with the growth in net income, the increase in FFO is primarily driven by the growth in our real estate investment portfolio. The portfolio growth also drove an increase in depreciation and amortization expense, resulting in greater FFO growth than net income growth, as these expenses are added back to net income to compute FFO. For the three months ended June 30, 2018, FFO also benefited from lower gains on the sale of real estate, which are subtracted from net income in calculating FFO. Such gains increased during the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to a year ago, somewhat offsetting FFO growth as compared to net income growth during that period.

 

AFFO

 

AFFO increased $5.9 million, or 24.5%, to $29.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, compared to $24.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. AFFO per diluted share increased $0.06 during the same period, to $1.39 per diluted share. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, AFFO increased $12.1 million, or 25.1%, to $60.2 million, compared to $48.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. AFFO per diluted share increased $0.10 during the same period, to $2.85 per diluted share. As compared to the increase in FFO, the lower year-over-year growth in AFFO was mainly due to decreased addback adjustments for cost of debt extinguishment, which reflected our closing on a new credit facility in 2017, and by increased deductions for straight-line rent adjustments, which reflect the growth in our real estate investment portfolio. These factors were somewhat offset by a decrease in the deduction related to gains on interest rate swaps.

 

REAL ESTATE PORTFOLIO UPDATE

 

As of June 30, 2018, we owned a diversified portfolio of 558 individual net leased commercial properties located in 42 states comprising approximately 17.4 million rentable square feet of operational space. As of June 30, 2018, our properties were 100% subject to a lease and 99.4% occupied, by 141 different commercial tenants, with no single tenant accounting for more than 4% of our annual rental stream. Our properties include those used for retail, industrial, healthcare, office, and other purposes.

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2018, we acquired 14 properties via eight transactions for $154.3 million, excluding capitalized acquisition expenses, at a weighted average initial cash capitalization rate of 6.9%. The properties acquired had a weighted average lease term of 14.3 years at the time of acquisition and weighted average annual rent increases of 1.8%. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we acquired 41 properties via ten transactions for $254.8 million, excluding capitalized acquisition expenses, at a weighted average initial cash capitalization rate of 6.7%. The properties acquired had a weighted average lease term of 15.6 years at the time of acquisition and weighted average annual rent increases of 1.9%.

During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we disposed of 11 properties for a gain of $7.6 million over carrying value, including six properties disposed during the three months ended June 30, 2018, at a gain of $4.3 million. Our management team plans to continue to be strategic in its disposition activities, to balance the overall quality of our portfolio and capture value for stockholders, as some assets are sold for premiums. To the extent possible, we will deploy proceeds from the sale of real estate in order to make accretive investments, preferably on a tax-deferred basis pursuant to 1031 exchanges.

 

Based on current market conditions, anticipated equity and debt capital raises, and available capacity under our credit facilities, we continue to target a similar volume of acquisitions in 2018 as in 2017.

 

CAPITALIZATION/BALANCE SHEET UPDATE

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2018, we raised $72.5 million in new capital investments from stockholders, of which approximately $44.2 million was received in cash, $12.5 million was raised via our Distribution Reinvestment Plan (“DRIP”), and $15.8 million was raised through UPREIT transactions. Approximately 46.6% of our investors participate in the DRIP, calculated based on the number of shares of our common stock and membership units in the Operating Company outstanding as of June 30, 2018.

 

In addition to continued equity raises, during the three months ended June 30, 2018, we drew the remaining $90.0 million that was available under the seven-year term loan feature of our $880.0 million credit facility, using a portion of the proceeds to partially repay outstanding revolver borrowings. At quarter end, our total outstanding debt principal totaled $1.3 billion, providing a leverage ratio of approximately 41.4% of the approximate market value of our assets.

 

Subsequent to quarter end, as disclosed in our July 6, 2018, press release, we entered into a Note and Guaranty Agreement (the “NGA”) by and among us, as parent guarantor, the Operating Company, as issuer, and the purchasers party thereto (the “Purchasers”). Pursuant to the terms of the NGA, the Operating Company will issue and sell to the Purchasers $325.0 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured, fixed-rate, interest-only senior notes in two series: (i) $225.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.09% Series B Guaranteed Senior Notes due July 2, 2028 (the “Series B Notes”), and (ii) $100.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.19% Series C Guaranteed Senior Notes due July 2, 2030 (the “Series C Notes,” and together with the Series B Notes, the “2018 Senior Notes”). On July 2, 2018, $100.0 million of Series B Notes and $50.0 million of Series C Notes were issued, with the remainder of the 2018 Senior Notes to be issued on September 13, 2018, pursuant to the offering’s delayed draw feature. We intend to use the net proceeds from the offering of the 2018 Senior Notes for general corporate purposes, which may include refinancing existing debt and funding potential acquisitions.

 

To help balance the timing of equity capital inflows and deployment of those funds in the form of real estate investments, as well as to keep our leverage ratio within our targeted leverage range while remaining well within our investment grade profile, during the fourth quarter of 2017, we implemented a cap and queue program for new and additional investments in shares of our common stock. The use and amount of the cap is based upon, and may be adjusted for, a number of factors, including, among others, our current and targeted leverage profile, our acquisition pipeline and anticipated future capital deployment, and overall market conditions. The monthly cap only applies to new or additional investments, and not to investments made pursuant to our DRIP or equity capital received in connection with UPREIT transactions. For the months of May 2018 and June 2018, new and additional investments were limited to $15.0 million per month. On July 18, 2018, we announced that we were increasing the cap to $20.0 million for the month of July 2018. This cap will remain in place for the months of August 2018, September 2018, and October 2018.

The DSV is established in good faith by the IDC based on the net asset value of our portfolio, input from management and third-party consultants, and such other factors as the IDC may determine. Additional information regarding our valuation policy and procedures, and the determination of the DSV by the IDC, is available in our 2017 Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 15, 2018.

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This press release contains “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, regarding, among other things, our plans, strategies, and prospects, both business and financial. Such forward-looking statements can generally be identified by our use of forward-looking terminology such as "may," "will," “should,” "expect," "intend," "anticipate," "estimate," “would be,“ "believe," "continue," or other similar words. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, which may cause our actual future results to differ materially from expected results, including risks related to general economic conditions, local real estate conditions, tenant financial health, property acquisitions and the timing of these acquisitions, and the availability of capital to finance planned growth, among others, as described in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Notice Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

In addition to our reported results and net earnings per diluted share, which are financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP, this press release and the referenced investor presentation and supplemental financial and operating materials contain and may refer to certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Funds from Operations, or FFO, and Adjusted Funds from Operations, or AFFO. We believe the use of FFO and AFFO are useful to investors because they are widely accepted industry measures used by analysts and investors to compare the operating performance of REITs. FFO and AFFO should not be considered alternatives to net income as a performance measure or to cash flows from operations, as reported on our statement of cash flows, or as a liquidity measure, and should be considered in addition to, and not in lieu of, GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of FFO and AFFO to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure and statements of why management believes these measures are useful to investors are included below and in the investor presentation materials that are referenced above.

Diluted weighted average number of shares of our common stock and membership units in the Operating Company outstanding (“WASO”), computed in accordance with GAAP.

 

 

Our reported results and net earnings per dilutive share are presented in accordance with GAAP. We also disclose Funds from Operations, or FFO, and Adjusted Funds from Operations, or AFFO, each of which are non-GAAP measures. We believe the use of FFO and AFFO are useful to investors because they are widely accepted industry measures used by analysts and investors to compare the operating performance of REITs. FFO and AFFO should not be considered alternatives to net income as a performance measure or to cash flows from operations, as reported on our statement of cash flows, or as a liquidity measure and should be considered in addition to, and not in lieu of, GAAP financial measures.

 

We compute FFO in accordance with the standards established by the 2002 White Paper on FFO approved by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). NAREIT defines FFO as GAAP net income or loss adjusted to exclude net gains (losses) from sales of depreciated real estate assets, depreciation and amortization expense from real estate assets, and impairment charges related to previously depreciated real estate assets. To derive AFFO, we modify the NAREIT computation of FFO to include other adjustments to GAAP net income related to certain non-cash revenues and expenses, including straight-line rents, cost of debt extinguishments, amortization of debt issuance costs, amortization of net mortgage premiums, amortization of lease intangibles, (gain) loss on interest rate swaps and other non-cash interest expense, extraordinary items and other specified non-cash items. We believe that such items are not a result of normal operations and thus we believe excluding such items assists management and investors in distinguishing whether changes in our operations are due to growth or decline of operations at our properties or from other factors.

Our leases include rents that increase over the term of the lease to compensate us for anticipated increases in market rentals over time. Our leases do not include significant front-loading or back-loading of payments or significant rent-free periods. Therefore, we find it useful to evaluate rent on a contractual basis as it allows for comparison of existing rental rates to market rental rates. Additionally, we exclude the amortization of lease intangibles. We exclude these costs from AFFO because they are upfront expenses that are recognized in conjunction with an acquisition, and therefore, are not indicative of ongoing operational results of the portfolio. We also exclude costs or gains recorded on the extinguishment of debt, non-cash interest expense and gains, and the amortization of debt issuance costs and net mortgage premiums as they are not indicative of ongoing operational results of the portfolio. We use AFFO as a measure of our performance when we formulate corporate goals.

 

FFO is used by management, investors, and analysts to facilitate meaningful comparisons of operating performance between periods and among our peers, primarily because it excludes the effect of real estate depreciation and amortization and net gains on sales, which are based on historical costs and implicitly assume that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time, rather than fluctuating based on existing market conditions. We believe that AFFO is a useful supplemental measure for investors to consider because it will help them to better assess our operating performance without the distortions created by non-cash revenues or expenses. FFO and AFFO may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other REITs, and comparisons of our FFO and AFFO with the same or similar measures disclosed by other REITs may not be meaningful.

 

Neither the SEC, nor any other regulatory body has passed judgment on the acceptability of the adjustments that we use to calculate FFO and AFFO. In the future, the SEC, or another regulatory body may decide to standardize the allowable adjustments across the REIT industry and in response to such standardization we may have to adjust our calculation and characterization of FFO and AFFO accordingly.
