Sales Activity

CoreSite achieved new and expansion sales of $3.5 million of annualized GAAP rent for the quarter.

“We believe we are well positioned to continue to take advantage of our available capacity more effectively in the marketplace,” said Steve Smith, CoreSite’s Chief Revenue Officer. “Although sales cycles are longer in this economic environment, we continue translating our new capacity into increased sales opportunities as we grow with new and existing customers moving to or expanding high-performance, hybrid-cloud footprints and increasing their data storage and compute in our major metropolitan markets.”

Development Activity

CoreSite continues to execute on its property development pipeline.

Completed Construction

During the second quarter, the Company completed and placed into service CH2 Phase 1 comprised of approximately 55,000 NRSF and SV8 Phase 3 comprised of approximately 52,000 NRSF.

Construction in Progress

As of June 30, 2020, CoreSite had a total of approximately 51,000 NRSF and an incremental 10 megawatts of turn-key data center capacity under construction, as detailed below.

(1)In order to meet customer demand and deploy capital efficiently, the NY2 Phase 3 development project was separated into two projects, including (1) a 34,589 NRSF computer room, which was placed into service in Q1 2020, which is being supported with existing building power infrastructure, and (2) a 4MW power infrastructure project expected to be completed in Q3 2020, which will ultimately support the 34,589 NRSF computer room as we lease the space and customers utilize the power and future computer rooms.

CoreSite’s ongoing data center development and operational position includes

othe ability to increase its occupied footprint of Tier 1, purpose-built data centers, both owned or leased, by approximately 2.1 million NRSF, or about 91.5%, including space unoccupied, under construction, pre-construction or held for development, and

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

The Company’s balance sheet remains strong, with a ratio of net principal debt to second quarter annualized adjusted EBITDA of 5.0 times. As of the end of the second quarter, CoreSite had $397.6 million of current liquidity, including $2.7 million of cash, $344.9 million of available capacity on its revolving credit facility, and the $50 million of senior notes funded subsequent to quarter end. The Company’s liquidity provides the ability to fund our business plan well beyond our remaining committed construction costs of $65.6 million related to our 2020 capital investment plans.

Financing

On May 6th, the Company executed a note purchase agreement to issue a 7-year $150 million unsecured private placement of senior notes, at an interest rate of 3.75%. We received $100 million of proceeds at closing and the remaining $50 million of proceeds was funded on July 14th. CoreSite used the proceeds to repay outstanding amounts on its revolving credit facility and for general working capital. The Company ended the quarter with 6% of variable debt and 94% fixed debt.

2020 Guidance

CoreSite is increasing its 2020 Guidance related to net income attributable to common diluted shares from its previous range of $1.74 to $1.84 per share to its new guidance range of $1.81 to $1.91 per share. In addition, CoreSite’s 2020 FFO per share guidance has been increased from its previous range of $5.10 to $5.20 per share to its new guidance range of $5.15 to $5.25 per share. The increase of $0.05 per share at the midpoint, or approximately 1%, is largely driven by interest expense savings resulting from its financing activities earlier this year and lower rates expected through the rest of this year. Other than the changes noted, CoreSite’s 2020 guidance and guidance drivers remain unchanged. CoreSite’s full 2020 guidance can be found in the Company’s second quarter 2020 Supplemental Earnings Information on page 23.

(1)Data center expansion capital expenditures include new data center construction, development projects adding capacity to existing data centers and other revenue generating investments. Data center expansion also includes investment of Deferred Expansion Capital. During the quarter ended June 30, 2019, we incurred $26 million to acquire SV9.
(2)Non-recurring investments include upgrades to existing data center or office space and company-wide improvements that are ancillary to revenue generation, such as internal system development for on-premises IT infrastructure and system-wide security upgrades, which have a future economic benefit.
(3)Recurring capital expenditures include required equipment upgrades within our operating portfolio, which have a future economic benefit. The three months ended June 30, 2019, included and, therefore, was reduced due to a $1.7 million energy efficiency rebate received from the power utility related to the replacement of our chiller plant at LA2.
(4)Repairs and maintenance expense is classified within property operating and maintenance expense in the consolidated statements of operations. These expenditures represent recurring maintenance contracts and repairs to operating equipment necessary to maintain current operations.

(1)In order to meet customer demand and deploy capital efficiently, the NY2 Phase 3 development project was separated into two projects, including (1) a 34,589 NRSF computer room, which was placed into service in Q1 2020 (refer to the Completed Pre-Stabilized Project table on Page 18), which is being supported with existing building power infrastructure, and (2) a 4MW power infrastructure project expected to be completed in Q3 2020, which will ultimately support the 34,589 NRSF computer room as we lease the space and customers utilize the power and future computer rooms.
(2)In addition to new development and incremental capacity in existing core and shell buildings, we have land adjacent to our NY2 facility, in the form of an existing parking lot. By utilizing this land, we believe we can build approximately 100,000 NRSF of data center capacity in Secaucus, New Jersey, upon receipt of necessary entitlements.
(3)We have an estimated $29.5 million in deferred expansion capital under construction at multiple properties as of June 30, 2020, of which $12.7 million has been incurred to-date. We estimate approximately $35 million of additional deferred expansion capital may be required in the future to support existing or anticipated future customer utilization.

Definitions

This document includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that management believes are helpful in understanding our business, as further described below. Our definition and calculation of non-GAAP financial measures may differ from those of other Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”) and therefore may not be comparable. The non-GAAP measures should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indicator of our performance and should be considered only a supplement to net income, cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as measures of profitability and/or liquidity, computed in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted Funds From Operations “AFFO” is a non-GAAP measure that is used as a supplemental
operating measure specifically for comparing year over year ability to fund dividend distribution from operating activities. We use AFFO as a basis to address our ability to fund our dividend payments. AFFO is calculated by adding to or subtracting from FFO:

1.Plus: Amortization of deferred financing costs and hedge amortization
2.Plus: Non-cash compensation
3.Plus: Non-real estate depreciation
4.Plus: Impairment charges
5.Plus: Below market debt amortization
6.Plus: Original issuance costs associated with redeemed preferred stock
7.Plus / Less: Net straight line rent adjustments (lessor revenue and lessee expense)
8.Plus / Less: Net amortization of above and below market leases
9.Less: Recurring capital expenditures
10.Less: Tenant improvements
11.Less: Capitalized leasing costs

Capitalized leasing costs consist of commissions payable to third parties, including brokers, leasing agents, referral agents, and internal sales commissions payable to employees. Capitalized leasing costs are accrued and deducted from AFFO generally in the period the lease is executed. Leasing costs are generally paid a) to third party brokers and internal sales employees 50% at customer lease signing and 50% at lease commencement and b) to referral and leasing agents monthly over the lease term as and to the extent we receive payment from the end customer.

AFFO is not intended to represent cash flow from operations for the period, and is only intended to provide an additional measure of performance by adjusting for the effect of certain items noted above included in FFO. Other REITs widely report AFFO, however, other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating AFFO and, accordingly, our AFFO may not be comparable to other REITs.

Annualized Rent

Monthly contractual rent under existing commenced customer leases as of quarter-end, multiplied by 12. This amount reflects total annualized base rent before any one-time or non-recurring rent abatements and excludes power revenue, interconnection revenue and operating expense reimbursement.

Data Center Leasing Metrics

Cash Rental Churn Rate – represents data center leases which are not renewed or are terminated during the period. Rental churn is calculated based on the annualized cash rent of data center expired leases terminated in the period, compared with total data center annualized rent at the beginning of the period.
Cash and GAAP Rent Growth – represents the change in rental rates on renewed data center leases signed during the period, as compared with the previous rental rates for the same space. Cash and GAAP rent growth are calculated based on annualized rent from the renewed data center lease compared to annualized rent from the expired data center lease.

Data Center Net Rentable Square Feet (“NRSF”)

Both occupied and available data center NRSF includes a factor based on management’s estimate of space to account for a customer’s proportionate share of required data center support space (such as the mechanical, telecommunications and utility rooms) and building common areas, which may be updated on a periodic basis to reflect the most current build-out of our properties.

Deferred Expansion Capital

As we construct data center capacity, we work to optimize both the amount of the capital we deploy on power and cooling infrastructure and the timing of that capital deployment; as such, we generally construct our power and cooling infrastructure supporting our data center NRSF based on our estimate of customer utilization. This practice can result in our investment at a later time in Deferred Expansion Capital. We define Deferred Expansion Capital as our estimate of the incremental capital we may invest in the future to add power or cooling infrastructure to support existing or anticipated future customer utilization of NRSF within our operating data centers. From time to time, we may revise our estimate of Deferred Expansion Capital as well as the potential time period during which we may invest it. See the Development Summary for more detail.

Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization for Real Estate (EBITDAre) and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDAre is calculated in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”). EBITDAre is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, gains or losses from the sale of depreciated property, and impairment of depreciated property. We calculate adjusted EBITDA by adding our non-cash compensation expense, transaction costs from unsuccessful deals and business combinations and litigation expense to EBITDAre as well as adjusting for the impact of other impairment charges, gains or losses from sales of undepreciated land and gains or losses on early extinguishment of debt. Management uses EBITDAre and adjusted EBITDA as indicators of our ability to incur and service debt. In addition, we consider EBITDAre and adjusted EBITDA to be appropriate supplemental measures of our performance because they eliminate depreciation and interest, which permits investors to view income from operations without the impact of non-cash depreciation or the cost of debt. However, because EBITDAre and adjusted EBITDA are calculated before recurring cash charges including interest expense and taxes, and are not adjusted for capital expenditures or other recurring cash requirements of our business, their utilization as a cash flow measurement is limited.

Funds From Operations (“FFO”) is a supplemental measure of our performance which should be considered
along with, but not as an alternative to, net income and cash provided by operating activities as a measure of operating performance. We calculate FFO in accordance with the standards established by Nareit. FFO represents net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property and undepreciated land and impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs) and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

Our management uses FFO as a supplemental performance measure because, by excluding real estate related depreciation and amortization and gains and losses from property dispositions, it provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, captures trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs.

We offer this measure because we recognize that investors use FFO as a basis to compare our operating performance with that of other REITs. However, the utility of FFO as a measure of our performance is limited because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization and captures neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions, nor the level of capital expenditures and capitalized leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our financial condition and results from operations. FFO is a non-GAAP measure and should not be considered a measure of liquidity, an alternative to net income, cash provided by operating activities or any other performance measure determined in accordance with GAAP, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends or make distributions. In addition, our calculations of FFO are not necessarily comparable to FFO as calculated by other REITs that do not use the same definition or implementation guidelines or interpret the standards differently from us. Investors in our securities should not rely on these measures as a substitute for any GAAP measure, including net income.

GAAP Annualized Rent

Represents the monthly average contractual rent as stated on customer contracts, multiplied by 12. This amount is inclusive of any one-time or non-recurring rent abatements and excludes power revenue, interconnection revenue and operating expense reimbursement.

Monthly Recurring Revenue per Cabinet Equivalent Billed

Represents the turn-key monthly recurring colocation revenue (“MRR”) per cabinet equivalent billed. We define MRR as recurring contractual revenue, including rental, power, and interconnection revenue and operating expense reimbursement, under existing commenced customer leases. MRR per cabinet equivalent is calculated as (current quarter MRR/3) divided by ((quarter-end cabinet equivalents billed plus prior quarter-end cabinet equivalents billed)/2). Cabinet equivalents are calculated as cage-usable square feet (turn-key leased NRSF/NRSF factor) divided by 25.

Net Operating Income (“NOI”) and Cash NOI – NOI, and cash NOI are supplemental measures for the operating performance of the Company’s portfolio. NOI is operating revenues less operating expenses adjusted for items such as depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expenses, transaction costs from unsuccessful deals and business combinations and litigation expenses. Cash NOI is NOI less straight-line rents and above and below market rent amortization.

NRSF Held for Development

Represents incremental data center capacity that may be constructed in existing facilities that requires significant capital investment in order to develop new data center facilities. The estimates are based on current construction plans and expectations regarding entitlements, and they are subject to change based on current economic conditions, final zoning approvals, and the supply and demand of the market. The estimated NRSF for new development projects is based on the entire building size. NRSF placed into service may change depending on the final construction and utilization of the built space.

NRSF Under Construction

Represents NRSF for which substantial activities are ongoing to prepare the property for its intended use following development. The NRSF reflects management’s estimate of engineering drawings and required support space and is subject to change based on final demising of space. TKD estimated development costs include two components: 1) general construction to ready the NRSF as data center space and 2) power, cooling and other infrastructure to provide the designed amount of power capacity for the project. Following development completion, incremental capital, referred to as Deferred Expansion Capital, may be invested to support existing or anticipated future customer utilization of NRSF within our operating data centers.

NRSF Pre-Construction

Represents NRSF for which the projects are in the design and permitting stage. Construction will commence upon receipt of the applicable permits. The estimated completion dates are subject to change based on the timing of final design and permitting approvals.

Turn-Key Same-Store

Includes turn-key data center space that was leased or available to be leased to our colocation customers as of December 31, 2018, at each of our properties, and excludes powered shell data center space, office and light-industrial space and space for which development was completed and became available to be leased after December 31, 2018. The turn-key same-store space as of December 31, 2018, is 1,972,441 NRSF. We track same-store on a computer room basis within each data center facility.

Stabilized and Pre-Stabilized NRSF

Data center projects and facilities that recently have been developed and are in the initial lease-up phase are classified as pre-stabilized NRSF until they reach 85% occupancy or have been in service for 24 months. Pre-stabilized projects and facilities become stabilized operating properties at the earlier of achievement of 85% occupancy or 24 months after development completion and are included in the stabilized operating NRSF.
