Aimco Reports Third Quarter 2020 Results

Denver, Colorado, October 29, 2020 – Apartment Investment and Management Company (“Aimco”) (NYSE: AIV) announced today third quarter results for 2020.

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Terry Considine comments: “The third quarter 2020 was filled with challenges and successes. The challenge of the pandemic to property operations was compounded by after-effects including economic volatility and a new era of work from home, government regulation of rent setting and rent collection, rioting and a general unsettling of public order. Aimco provided its residents safety, a refuge from the virus, good neighbors, respectful treatment for all, and a helping hand to those in need. While the experience of this year makes me cautious, it seems that the worst is behind us. We have seen steady improvement during the third quarter. We expect that trend to continue through the fourth quarter and into the new year.”

“During the third quarter, Aimco sold a 39% interest in a $2.4 billion portfolio of California properties. This enabled a $1B reduction in financial leverage.”

“Also during the third quarter, Aimco announced a Board-led plan, informed by active and regular engagement with shareholders, to reduce financial risk and execution risk, and to increase FFO per share by division of the Aimco business between two public entities. The first with 90% of Aimco capital will be known as Apartment Income REIT or “AIR”. It will own only stabilized apartment communities, eliminating vacancy loss during redevelopment and allowing substantial reduction in execution risk and offsite costs. Leverage will be reduced by $2B by selling assets. The California joint venture discussed above resulted in the first $1B reduction in financial leverage. The second $1B will be achieved by the separation transaction scheduled to close before year-end. The second entity with 10% of Aimco capital will be known as Aimco, or sometimes for clarity, as “new” Aimco. It will hold the non-traditional assets, such as the Parkmerced loan and the Brickell land assembly. New Aimco will continue and seek to grow the development and redevelopment business and it will complete the redevelopment projects now underway or about to be started. After a defined transition period, the two businesses will be wholly separate. From the start, each will have separate boards of directors and separate management teams. The separation has been structured to refresh the tax basis of the properties to be held by AIR, eliminating or reducing the need for future stock dividends. Shareholders will own the same assets before and after the separation transaction but will gain the opportunity to make individual allocations between the two businesses.

“Looking forward, I am excited about the prospects for both AIR and New Aimco. We will publish more information soon in the Forms-10 now being reviewed by the SEC. I believe that the separation will unlock significant shareholder value.”

Chief Financial Officer Paul Beldin adds: “For the current, combined Aimco, third quarter pro forma FFO of $0.61 per share was down 5% year-over-year. $0.07 per share in higher income from the Parkmerced mezzanine loan and from lower offsite costs was more than offset by $0.09 per share of lower occupancy and other COVID-related impacts detailed on page three and a $0.01 net impact of property sales. Same Store Residential Net Rental Income was down in the third quarter by 2.5%. In our stable, mostly suburban markets, which include approximately 70% of our Same Store apartment homes, this same measure was up 60 basis points. Specific urban submarkets fared worse with Same Store Residential Net Rental Income down by 7.1%.”

Financial Results: Third Quarter AFFO Per Share Down 5%; Year-to-date Up 4%

* Primarily separation costs and prepayment penalties, see Supplemental Schedule 1 for a detailed list of pro forma adjustments to FFO.

** See COVID-19 Response Update in this earnings release for detail on impacts directly related to Aimco’s response to COVID-19 and the related governmental shut-down of the economy.

Net Income (per diluted common share) – Year-over-year, third quarter net income decreased due primarily to increased prepayment penalties incurred due to third quarter 2020 payoff activity and higher other expenses due to costs incurred on the previously announced planned separation of Aimco’s development activities.

Pro forma FFO (per pro forma diluted common share) – Third quarter Pro forma FFO per share decreased 5% year-over-year. Increased income from the Parkmerced mezzanine loan and lower offsite costs was more than offset by lower occupancy and COVID-19 related impacts, detailed below.  Year-to-date, pro forma FFO per share was up 3% year-over-year.

COVID-19 Response Update

Aimco’s top priority is the health and safety of its residents and teammates. Accordingly, Aimco has implemented enhanced cleaning procedures as well as physical distancing and remote working guidelines at its communities and corporate offices. Additionally, seeing residents as individuals, each impacted differently by the pandemic and lockdown, Aimco teammates have undertaken to speak to every resident in need, to listen, and to help each to solve his or her problems. Aimco also seeks to assist the communities where its residents and employees live and work.

Aimco estimates that, in addition to decreased occupancy and lower rental rates, it incurred $9.5 million in the third quarter, $22.6 million year-to-date, of incremental costs. The table below provides additional detail.

Rent Collection Update

Residential Rent Collection – Aimco measures residential rent collection as the amount of payments received as a percentage of all residential amounts owed. The table below represents the percentage of second and third quarter 2020 residential billed amounts.

In the third quarter, Aimco recognized 98.1% of all residential revenue treating the balance of 1.9% as bad debt. Of the 98.1% of residential revenue recognized, Aimco collected in cash all but 140 basis points. The amounts uncollected and not reserved as bad debt include balances collateralized by security deposits, of approximately 60 basis points, and those considered collectable based on Aimco review of individual customers’ credit, of approximately 80 basis points, or $1.6 million.

Of the 190 basis points of bad debt the majority, or approximately 130 basis points, is attributed to residents who have not paid April and subsequent rents. Prior to the enactment of restrictive city ordinances and closed court houses, these residents would have paid rent or faced eviction in ordinary course. The remaining amount, approximately 60 basis points, is attributed to non-payment of rent and other charges as might be expected in a difficult economy. The bad debt associated with this latter category started to slow in August and has declined in each subsequent month.  Looking forward, we expect the decline to continue until reaching a more normal level of approximately 30 basis points in 2021. Aimco also expects the emergency ordinances that allow residents to live rent free to unwind providing the opportunity to re-rent these apartments to rent-paying residents.

October rent collections have been consistent with September collections at the same day of the month.

Operating Results: Third Quarter Same Store NOI Down 6.3%; Year-to-Date NOI Down 0.9%

Components of Same Store Revenue Growth – Same Store Revenue growth was impacted by lower average daily occupancy, increased bad debt expense, waived late fees, and reduced commercial rents. The table below summarizes the change in the components of Aimco Same Store revenue growth.

Same Store Rental Rates – Aimco measures changes in rental rates by comparing, on a lease-by-lease basis, the effective rate on a newly executed lease to the effective rate on the expiring lease for that same apartment. Newly executed leases are classified as either a new lease, where a vacant apartment is leased to a new customer, or as a renewal. The table below details changes in new and renewal lease rates, as well as the weighted-average (blended) lease rates for leases executed in the respective period.

 

*As of October 28, 2020. October results are considered preliminary.

Same Store Markets – Aimco’s portfolio is intentionally diversified by geography and price point, it is also diversified with a mix of urban and suburban communities. Third quarter revenue growth differed significantly based on geography and the density of the area surrounding the community.

Suburban properties include 19,083 units, or approximately 70% of Aimco’s Same Store portfolio. In these communities ADO was 95.7%, turnover was 39.6%, blended rates were near flat, and residential net rental income was up 0.6%.

Urban markets include 8,527 units of Aimco’s Same Store portfolio. In these communities ADO was 89.5%, turnover was 47.0%, blended rates were down 6.7%, and residential net rental income was down 7.1%.

 

Specifically, in Center City and University City Philadelphia, Aimco communities have faced a sharp decline in demand from local universities announcing virtual learning for the fall semester; fewer workers in downtown office buildings, including both Comcast towers, due to work from home policies; and disruption to leasing activity from social unrest.

 

In Mid-Wilshire and West Los Angeles, bad debt has been elevated due to local regulations which have the effect of permitting residents to live rent-free. Demand from the recovering entertainment industry is returning and leasing pace was up 44% year-over-year in the third quarter.

 

On the San Francisco Peninsula in Northern California, work from home policies at major tech companies disrupted demand in San Mateo and Redwood City. The Pacifica neighborhood was impacted but has stabilized and our communities in San Jose, Marin County, and the East Bay have performed well.

Redevelopment and Development

Redevelopment is Aimco’s second line of business where Aimco creates value by repositioning communities within the Aimco portfolio. Aimco also undertakes ground-up development when warranted by risk-adjusted investment returns, either directly or in connection with redevelopment of an existing apartment community. Aimco invests to earn risk-adjusted returns in excess of those expected from the apartment communities sold in “paired trades” to fund the redevelopment and development. Of these two activities, Aimco generally favors redevelopment because it permits adjustment of the scope and timing of spending to align with changing market conditions and customer preferences.

During the third quarter, Aimco invested $57 million in redevelopment and development. Aimco continued five long-cycle redevelopment and development projects already under construction, including the full redevelopment of the North Tower at Flamingo Point in Miami Beach, Florida, and 707 Leahy in Redwood City, California; and ground-up construction at The Fremont on the Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora, Colorado; Eldridge Townhomes in Elmhurst, Illinois; and Prism in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Aimco’s estimated cost to complete these projects is $110 million, an amount readily funded from Aimco’s liquidity.

At Parc Mosaic in Boulder, Colorado, construction is complete and, as of October 28, 2020, Aimco has leased 97% of the apartment homes at rents consistent with underwriting.

At The Fremont, on the Anschutz Medical Campus, as of October 28, 2020, just over 100 apartment homes have been delivered and 82% have been leased. Completion of this 253-apartment home community is expected in the fourth quarter.

At Eldridge Townhomes in Elmhurst, Illinois, construction is now complete and 57 of the 58 have been leased.

At 707 Leahy in Redwood City, California, 60 of the 110 apartment homes have been completed and, as of October 28, 2020, 82% of those have been leased.

At Prism in Cambridge, Massachusetts, completion of this 136-apartment home property is expected in the first quarter of 2021.

During the third quarter, Aimco leased 144 redeveloped or newly developed apartment homes. At September 30, 2020, Aimco’s exposure to lease-up at long-cycle redevelopment and development communities was 684 apartment homes; 36 homes where construction is complete, 171 homes expected to be completed before year-end, and 477 homes expected to be delivered in 2021.

Portfolio Management

Aimco’s portfolio of apartment communities is diversified across “A,” “B,” and “C+” price points, averaging “B/B+” in quality and is also diversified across several of the largest markets in the United States.

Portfolio Strategy – Aimco follows a disciplined paired trade policy in making investments. As part of its portfolio strategy, Aimco seeks to sell up to 10% of its portfolio annually and to reinvest the proceeds from such sales in accretive uses such as capital enhancements, redevelopments, some developments, and selective acquisitions with projected Free Cash Flow internal rates of return higher than expected from the communities being sold. Aimco prefers well-located real estate where land is a significant percentage of total value and provides potential upside from development or redevelopment. Through this disciplined approach to capital recycling, Aimco increases the quality and expected growth rate of its portfolio.

---

* NOI margin is lower than Aimco’s Same Store NOI margin of 71% due primarily to the impact of Redevelopment communities that are not yet stabilized. As these communities stabilize, we expect NOI margin to be equal to, or better than, Aimco Same Store NOI margin.

Third Quarter Portfolio – For its entire portfolio, Aimco’s average monthly revenue per apartment home was $2,212 for third quarter 2020, a 2% decrease compared to third quarter 2019.

Acquisitions – Aimco follows a disciplined paired trade policy in making investments. Aimco evaluates potential acquisitions seeking Free Cash Flow internal rates of returns higher than those of the properties being sold. Aimco prefers well-located real estate where land is a significant percentage of total value and provides potential upside from development or redevelopment.

In the third quarter, Aimco acquired for $90 million, Hamilton on the Bay, located in Miami’s Edgewater neighborhood. The acquisition includes a 271-apartment home community located on the waterfront, approximately one mile north of Aimco’s Bay Parc apartments, plus an adjacent development site. Current zoning allows for the construction of more than 380 additional apartment homes on the combined sites. Aimco is now in planning to invest as much as $50 million in a substantial renovation of the existing building.

Aimco continues to search for accretive acquisitions, including development opportunities.

Dispositions – During the third quarter, we received a non-refundable deposit securing a contract to purchase an apartment community expected to be sold later in the fourth quarter at a price of $126 million, 3% better than its estimated gross asset value at December 31, 2019. Proceeds from this transaction are expected to be used to reduce leverage.

Year-to-date, Aimco has sold one apartment community generating net proceeds of $37 million.

Joint Venture Transaction – As previously announced, in September, Aimco formed a joint venture with a passive institutional investor to own a portfolio of 12 multi-family communities with 4,051 apartment homes located in California.

The properties were valued at $2.40 billion, or approximately $592,000 per unit, equivalent to an implied NOI cap rate of approximately 4.2%. The valuation is equal to 97% of Aimco’s pre-COVID-19 valuation of the properties and confirms Aimco’s previously published NAV. The joint venture has existing property debt of $1.22 billion and an implied equity value of $1.18 billion. In exchange for a 39% interest subject to $475 million of property debt, Aimco received $461 million. Aimco retains ownership of 61% of the joint venture and will control and operate the properties in exchange for property and asset management fees.  

RBC Capital Markets acted as the Exclusive Financial Advisor to the joint venture.

Life Science Developer Investment – In the third quarter, Aimco made a $50 million commitment to IQHQ, a privately-held life-sciences real estate development company. In addition, Aimco gained the right to collaborate with IQHQ on any multifamily component at its future development sites.

Mezzanine Loan Investment – As previously announced, in December 2019, Aimco made a five-year, $275 million mezzanine loan to a partnership owning Parkmerced Apartments, located in southwest San Francisco. The loan bears interest at a 10% annual rate, accruing if not paid from property operations. In the third quarter, Aimco accrued all interest due, as provided by the loan agreement, consistent with GAAP, and considering that the loan is senior to approximately $300 million of borrower equity.

Balance Sheet

Aimco Leverage

Aimco seeks to increase financial returns by using leverage with appropriate caution. Aimco limits risk through its balance sheet structure, employing low leverage, primarily non-recourse and long-dated property debt; and Aimco builds financial flexibility by maintaining ample unused and available credit; holding properties with substantial value unencumbered by property debt; maintaining an investment grade rating; and using partners’ equity capital when it enhances financial returns or reduces investment risk.

Aimco leverage includes the Aimco share of long-term, non-recourse, property debt encumbering apartment communities, outstanding borrowings under the Aimco revolving credit facility, the term loan, and other leverage.

 

*Other leverage includes mezzanine equity instruments, including Aimco Preferred OP Units, redeemable at the holder’s option. Aimco has computed the weighted-average maturity of its total leverage assuming a 10-year maturity for its Preferred OP Units.

**During the third quarter, Aimco reduced Net Leverage by approximately $1 billion through the California Joint Venture transaction.

Leverage Ratios

Aimco target leverage ratios are Net Leverage to Adjusted EBITDAre below 7.0x and Adjusted EBITDAre to Interest Expense and Preferred Distributions greater than 2.5x.

 

Under its revolving credit facility and term loan, Aimco has agreed to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.40x, as well as other covenants customary for similar revolving credit arrangements. For the period ended September 30, 2020, Aimco’s fixed charge coverage ratio was 1.93x. Aimco expects to remain in compliance with its covenants.

---

Financing Activity

During the third quarter, Aimco prepaid $405 million of property debt using proceeds from the previously announced joint venture, incurring $7.8 million in prepayment penalties that have been excluded from Pro forma FFO. The loans had a weighted-average interest rate of 5.3%, lowering Aimco’s weighted-average cost of leverage by 15 basis points. The prepayment of property debt lowers Aimco’s interest expense such that the costs associated with the prepayment will be recovered in the first quarter of 2021. Aimco has no remaining debt maturities in 2020.

Liquidity

Aimco uses its credit facility primarily for working capital and other short-term purposes and to secure letters of credit. At September 30, 2020, Aimco’s share of cash and restricted cash was $249 million and it had the capacity to borrow up to $793 million under its revolving credit facility, bringing total liquidity to more than $1.0 billion.

Aimco also manages its financial flexibility by maintaining an investment grade rating and holding communities that are unencumbered by property debt. As of September 30, 2020, Aimco held unencumbered communities with an estimated fair market value of approximately $3.6 billion.

Special Dividend

2020 property sales, including the California Joint Venture, generated taxable gains in excess of the company’s regular quarterly dividend. On October 21, 2020 Aimco’s Board of Directors declared a $8.20 special dividend in the form of cash and stock.

The special dividend includes the next two quarterly cash dividends, or $0.82 per share in the aggregate, accelerating the payment of the regular dividend expected in February of 2021. Additionally, shareholders in the aggregate will receive $7.38 per share in stock.

The dividend will be payable to shareholders of record on the close of business on November 4, 2020, with shareholders having the opportunity to elect to receive the special dividend in the form of all stock or prorated cash and stock, and will be paid on November 30, 2020, after trading hours. The number of shares distributed in the special dividend will be determined by the volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of AIV shares during the 10-trading day period ending on November 24, 2020.

In order to neutralize the dilutive impact of the stock issued in the special dividend, Aimco's Board also authorized a reverse stock split, effective on November 30, 2020, immediately following the special dividend. As a result, total shares outstanding following completion of both the special dividend and the reverse stock split are expected to be unchanged from the total shares outstanding immediately prior to the dividend. Some stockholders may have more Aimco shares and some may have fewer based on their individual elections. The reverse split will ensure comparability of Aimco per share results before and after these transactions.

Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 Compared to Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019

(in thousands, except per share data) (unaudited)

Aimco believes that Economic Income (defined as Net Asset Value, or NAV, growth plus dividends) is an important measure of long-term financial performance. NAV is a non-GAAP measure and represents the estimated fair value of assets net of liabilities attributable to Aimco common stockholders. NAV is used by many investors because the value of company assets can be readily estimated, even for non-earning assets such as land or properties under development. NAV has the advantage of incorporating the investment decisions of thousands of real estate investors, enhancing comparability among companies that have differences in their accounting, and avoiding disparity that can result from application of GAAP to investment properties and various ownership structures. NAV also provides real estate investors a basis for the perceived quality and predictability of future cash flows as well as their expected growth. Some investors focus on multiples of AFFO and FFO. Aimco’s disclosure of AFFO and FFO complements its focus on Economic Income.

Apartment Community Capital Additions Information

Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020

(consolidated amounts in thousands, except per apartment home data) (unaudited)

 

Aimco classifies capital additions as Capital Replacements (“CR”), Capital Improvements (“CI”), Capital Enhancements (“CE”), Redevelopment, Development, Initial Capital Expenditures (“ICE”), or Casualty. Recurring capital additions are apportioned between CR and CI based on the useful life of the item under consideration and the period over which Aimco has owned the item. Under this method of classification, CR represents the portion of the item consumed during Aimco’s ownership of the item, while CI represents the portion of the item consumed prior to Aimco’s period of ownership.

Supplemental Schedule 10

 

As of September 30, 2020

(dollars in millions, except per home information) (unaudited)

Aimco executes redevelopments using a range of approaches. Aimco prefers to limit risk by executing redevelopments using a short-cycle approach, in which it renovates an apartment community in stages. These short-cycle redevelopments can be completed one apartment home at a time, when that home is vacated and available for renovation, or one floor at a time, thereby limiting the number of down homes and lease-up risk. As a result, short-cycle redevelopments provide Aimco the flexibility to maintain current earnings while aligning the timing of the completed apartment homes with market demand. The following table summarizes value-creating investments related to short-cycle redevelopments.

* Represents properties Aimco expects to lease from AIR following the separation of its development activities.

(Page 2 of 2)

Terms and Definitions

Total Planned Investment - represents total estimated investment, net of tax and other credits earned by Aimco as a direct result of its redevelopment or development of the community. Total estimated investment includes all capitalized costs projected to be incurred to redevelop or develop the respective community, as determined in accordance with GAAP.

Expected Stabilized Occupancy - period in which Aimco expects to achieve stabilized occupancy (greater than 90%).

Expected NOI Stabilization - period in which Aimco expects to achieve stabilized rents and operating costs, generally five quarters after Stabilized Occupancy.

Average Revenue per Apartment Home Redeveloped or Constructed - represents the actual revenues per apartment home, which includes rents and other rental income, prior to redevelopment, and the projected revenues per apartment home following redevelopment or construction, excluding rent and other rental income from commercial leases (which are presented separately on this schedule) and resident utility reimbursements. Projections of stabilized revenues per apartment home are based on management’s judgment. These projections consider factors including but not limited to: current rent; other rental income expectations; and revenue achievement to date as compared to current market rents.

GLOSSARY AND RECONCILIATIONS OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL AND OPERATING MEASURES

 

This Earnings Release and Supplemental Information include certain financial and operating measures used by Aimco management that are not calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP. Aimco’s definitions and calculations of these non-GAAP financial and operating measures and other terms may differ from the definitions and methodologies used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable. These non-GAAP financial and operating measures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP net income or any other GAAP measurement of performance and should not be considered an alternative measure of liquidity.

 

AIMCO OP: AIMCO Properties, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, is the operating partnership in Aimco’s UPREIT structure. Aimco owns approximately 93.5% of the legal interest in the common partnership units of the Aimco OP and 94.9% of the economic interest in the common partnership units of the Aimco OP.

AIMCO PROPORTIONATE FINANCIAL INFORMATION: Within this Earnings Release and Supplemental Information, Aimco provides certain financial information necessary to calculate Aimco’s share of financial information. This information is not, nor is it intended to be, a presentation in accordance with GAAP. Aimco’s proportionate share of financial information includes Aimco’s share of unconsolidated real estate partnerships and excludes the noncontrolling interest partners’ share of consolidated real estate partnerships.

Aimco does not control the unconsolidated real estate partnerships and the calculation of Aimco’s share of the assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses does not represent a legal claim to a proportionate share of such items. The amount of cash distributions partners in such partnerships may receive is based upon specific provisions in the partnership agreements and may vary based on whether such distributions are generated from operations, capital events or liquidation.

Proportionate information benefits the users of Aimco’s financial information by providing the amount of revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities, and other items attributable to Aimco stockholders. Other companies may calculate their proportionate information differently than Aimco does, limiting the usefulness as a comparative measure. Because of these limitations, the non-GAAP Aimco proportionate financial information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for information included in Aimco’s financial statements as reported under GAAP.

AVERAGE AGE OF APARTMENT COMMUNITIES: Calculated by Aimco on a property-by-property basis based on the year the community was originally built, adjusted for redevelopment and/or other major capital improvements that effectively reduce the age of the community. Such investments include construction of new buildings and/or amenities, replacement or modernization of mechanical, plumbing, and electrical systems and other investments that are consequential in nature. The average age of apartment communities is weighted by the estimated fair value of the properties, and is updated annually during the first quarter, as well as upon completion of a long-cycle redevelopment.

AVERAGE REVENUE PER APARTMENT HOME: Represents Aimco proportionate average monthly rental and other property revenues, excluding utility cost reimbursements, divided by the number of occupied apartment homes as of the end of the period.

CAPITAL ADDITIONS DEFINITIONS

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS (CI): CI represent capital additions made to replace the portion of acquired apartment communities consumed prior to Aimco’s period of ownership and not contemplated in Aimco’s underwriting of an acquisition.

CAPITAL REPLACEMENTS (CR): Unlike CI, CR does not increase the useful life of an asset from its original purchase condition. CR represent capital additions made to replace the portion of acquired capital assets consumed during Aimco’s period of ownership. CR is deducted in the calculation of AFFO. A reconciliation between CR amounts on Schedule 2 and Schedule 9 is as follows (in thousands, unaudited):

[1] Amortization of incremental costs to obtain leases includes the write-off of lease commissions during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020.

CASUALTY CAPITAL ADDITIONS: Casualty capital additions represent capitalized costs incurred in connection with the restoration of an apartment community after a casualty event.

CAPITAL ENHANCEMENTS (CE): CE may include kitchen and bath remodeling; energy conservation projects; and investments in longer-lived materials designed to reduce costs. CE differs from Redevelopment Additions in that they are generally lesser in scope and do not significantly disrupt property operations.

INITIAL CAPITAL EXPENDITURES (ICE): ICE represent capital additions contemplated in the underwriting at Aimco’s recently acquired communities.

REDEVELOPMENT ADDITIONS: Redevelopment additions represent capital additions intended to enhance the value of the apartment community through the ability to generate higher average rental rates, and may include costs related to entitlement, which enhance the value of a community through increased density, and costs related to renovation of exteriors, common areas, or apartment homes.

DEVELOPMENT ADDITIONS: Development additions represent construction and related capitalized costs associated with the ground-up development of apartment communities.

ECONOMIC INCOME: As discussed in Supplemental Schedule 1, Economic Income represents stockholder value creation as measured by the change in estimated net asset value, or NAV, per share, plus cash dividends per share. Aimco believes Economic Income is important to investors as it represents a measure of total return we have earned for our stockholders. NAV, as used in our calculation of Economic Income, is a non-GAAP measure and represents the estimated fair value of assets net of liabilities attributable to Aimco’s common stockholders and the Aimco Operating Partnership’s common unitholders on a diluted basis. Aimco reports and reconciles Economic Income to GAAP equity annually. Please refer to the section entitled Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations described in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 for more information about Economic Income.

FREE CASH FLOW: Free Cash Flow, as calculated for Aimco’s retained portfolio, represents an apartment community’s property net operating income, less spending for Capital Replacements. Capital Replacement spending is a measure of the cost of capital asset used during the period. Aimco believes that Free Cash Flow is useful to investors as a supplemental measure of apartment community performance because it takes into consideration costs incurred during the period to replace capital assets that have been consumed during Aimco’s ownership.

FREE CASH FLOW CAP RATE: Free Cash Flow Cap Rate represents the NOI Cap Rate, adjusted for assumed Capital Replacements spending of $1,200 per apartment home.

FREE CASH FLOW MARGIN: Free Cash Flow Margin represents an apartment community’s property net operating income less $1,200 per apartment home of assumed annual Capital Replacement spending, as a percentage of the apartment community’s rental and other property revenues.

LEVERAGE RATIO DEFINITIONS

Aimco’s leverage strategy targets the ratio of Net Leverage to Adjusted EBITDAre to be below 7.0x and the ratio of Adjusted EBITDAre to Adjusted Interest and Preferred Distributions to be greater than 2.5x. Aimco also focuses on the ratios of Proportionate Debt to Adjusted EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre Coverage of Adjusted Interest. Aimco believes these ratios, which are based in part on non-GAAP financial information, are commonly used by investors and analysts to assess the relative financial risk associated with balance sheets of companies within the same industry, and they are believed to be similar to measures used by rating agencies to assess entity credit quality. EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre should not be considered alternatives to net income (loss) as determined in accordance with GAAP as indicators of performance. There can be no assurance that Aimco’s method of calculating EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre is comparable with that of other real estate investment trusts.

Aimco’s net leverage includes Aimco’s share of long-term, non-recourse property debt, outstanding borrowings on its revolving credit facility, its term loan, and outstanding preferred OP Units, reduced by cash and restricted cash on-hand, excluding tenant security deposits, and its investment in a securitization trust that holds certain of its property debt. Aimco reconciles consolidated balances to its net leverage on Supplemental Schedule 5(a).

Aimco calculates Adjusted EBITDAre and Adjusted Interest Expense used in its leverage ratios based on current quarter amounts, annualized, and trailing twelve months.

EBITDAre AND ADJUSTED EBITDAre

EARNINGS BEFORE INTEREST, TAXES, DEPRECIATION, AND AMORTIZATION FOR REAL ESTATE (“EBITDAre”): Nareit defines EBITDAre as net income computed in accordance with GAAP, before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, further adjusted for:

Aimco believes that EBITDAre is useful to investors, creditors and rating agencies as a supplemental measure of Aimco’s ability to incur and service debt because it is a recognized measure of performance

by the real estate industry and facilitates comparison of credit strength between Aimco and other companies.

ADJUSTED EBITDAre: Adjusted EBITDAre is defined by Aimco as EBITDAre adjusted to exclude the effect of the following items for the reasons set forth below:

A reconciliation of net income to EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre for Aimco’s portfolio for the quarter ended and trailing twelve months ended September 30, 2020, is as follows (in thousands, unaudited):

ADJUSTED INTEREST EXPENSE: Adjusted Interest Expense represents Aimco’s proportionate share of interest expense on non-recourse property debt and interest on the credit facility borrowings and term loan less (i) prepayment penalties, if any, and (ii) the amount of interest income recognized by Aimco related to its investment in the subordinated tranches in a securitization trust holding primarily Aimco property debt.

 

 

---

Adjusted Interest Expense and Preferred Distributions for the quarter and trailing twelve months ended September 30, 2020, as used in the leverage ratios on Supplemental Schedule 5(a), are calculated as follows (in thousands, unaudited):

FIXED CHARGE COVERAGE RATIO: As defined by Aimco’s credit agreement, the ratio of (a) EBITDA to (b) fixed charges, which represent the sum of (i) Aimco’s proportionate share of interest expense (excluding prepayment penalties and amortization of debt issuance costs), (ii) debt amortization, and (iii) Preferred Distributions, for the four fiscal quarters preceding the date of calculation. The calculation of certain of these measures as defined by Aimco’s Credit Agreement may differ from those used by Aimco in the calculations of its Leverage Ratios.

PREFERRED DISTRIBUTIONS: Preferred Distributions includes the distributions paid with respect to the Aimco OP’s Preferred Partnership Units.

OTHER LEVERAGE: Other Leverage includes Preferred OP Units and redeemable noncontrolling interests.

PREFERRED OP UNITS: Preferred OP Units represent the redemption amounts for the Aimco OP’s Preferred Partnership Units and may be found in Aimco’s consolidated balance sheets and on Supplemental Schedule 5(b).

PROPORTIONATE DEBT TO ADJUSTED EBITDAre RATIO: The ratio of (a) Aimco’s share of net leverage as calculated on Supplemental Schedule 5(a), excluding Preferred OP Units and redeemable noncontrolling interests, to (b) Adjusted EBITDAre.

NET LEVERAGE TO ADJUSTED EBITDAre RATIO: The ratio of (a) Aimco’s share of net leverage as calculated on Supplemental Schedule 5(a), to (b) Adjusted EBITDAre.

NAREIT FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS (Nareit FFO): Nareit FFO is a commonly used measure of REIT performance, which the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (Nareit) defines as net income computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding: depreciation and amortization related to real estate; gains and losses from sales or impairment of depreciable assets and land used in the primary business of the REIT; and income taxes directly associated with a gain or loss on sale of real estate; and including Aimco’s share of Nareit FFO of unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Aimco computes Nareit FFO for all periods presented in accordance with the guidance set forth by Nareit.

In addition to Nareit FFO, Aimco uses PRO FORMA FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS (Pro forma FFO) and ADJUSTED FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS (AFFO) to measure short-term performance. Pro forma FFO

 

 

---

represents Nareit FFO as defined above, excluding certain amounts that are unique or occur infrequently. Aimco’s pro forma adjustments are defined in further detail in the footnotes to Supplemental Schedule 1.

AFFO represents Pro forma FFO reduced by Capital Replacements and is Aimco’s primary measure of current period performance.

Nareit FFO, Pro forma FFO, and AFFO are non-GAAP measures that Aimco believes are helpful to investors in understanding Aimco’s short-term performance because they capture features particular to real estate performance by recognizing that real estate generally appreciates over time or maintains residual value to a much greater extent than other capital assets such as machinery, computers or other personal property. Nareit FFO, Pro forma FFO, and AFFO should not be considered alternatives to net income (loss) as determined in accordance with GAAP, as indicators of performance. There can be no assurance that Aimco’s method of computing Nareit FFO, Pro forma FFO or AFFO is comparable with that of other real estate investment trusts.

NET OPERATING INCOME (NOI) CAP RATE: NOI Cap Rate is calculated based on Aimco’s share of the proportionate property NOI for the trailing twelve months prior to sale, less a 3% management fee, divided by Aimco gross proceeds.

NET OPERATING INCOME (NOI) MARGIN: Represents an apartment community’s net operating income as a percentage of the apartment community’s rental and other property revenues.

OTHER EXPENSES, NET: Other expenses, net, allocated to contribution from real estate operations on Supplemental Schedule 2 generally includes ground lease rent expense, franchise taxes, expenses specifically related to Aimco’s administration of its real estate partnerships (for example, services such as audit, tax, and legal), and other amounts not included in property NOI for purposes of evaluating segment performance. Other expenses, net, not allocated to contribution from real estate operations generally consists of risk management activities related to Aimco’s unconsolidated partnerships and certain other corporate expenses.

PROPERTY NET OPERATING INCOME (NOI) and PROPORTIONATE PROPERTY NOI: NOI is defined by Aimco as total property rental and other property revenues less direct property operating expenses, including real estate taxes. NOI does not include: property management revenues, primarily from affiliates; casualties; property management expenses; depreciation; or interest expense. NOI is helpful because it helps both investors and management to understand the operating performance of real estate excluding costs associated with decisions about acquisition pricing, overhead allocations, and financing arrangements. NOI is also considered by many in the real estate industry to be a useful measure for determining the value of real estate. Reconciliations of NOI as presented in this Earnings Release and Supplemental Information to Aimco’s consolidated GAAP amounts are provided below.

Due to the diversity of its economic ownership interests in its apartment communities in the periods presented, Aimco evaluates the performance of the apartment communities in its segments using Proportionate Property NOI, which represents Aimco’s share of the NOI for the apartment communities that Aimco consolidates and manages, but excludes apartment communities that it does not consolidate. Proportionate Property NOI is defined as Aimco share of rental and other property revenue less Aimco share of property operating expenses. In its evaluation of community results, Aimco excludes utility cost reimbursement from rental and other property revenues and reflects such amount as a reduction of the related utility expense within property operating expenses. The following table presents the reconciliation of GAAP rental and other property revenue to the proportionate revenues before utility reimbursements and GAAP property operating expenses to proportionate expenses, net of utility reimbursements. The table also presents the reconciliation of consolidated Same Store revenue before utility reimbursements and

expenses, net of utility reimbursements as presented on Supplemental Schedule 2(a) to the proportionate amounts presented on Supplemental Schedule 6.

PORTFOLIO QUALITY RATINGS: Aimco measures the quality of apartment communities in its portfolio based on average rents of its apartment homes compared to local market average rents as reported by a third-party provider of commercial real estate performance and analysis. Under this rating system, Aimco classifies as “A” quality apartment communities those earning rents greater than 125% of local market average; as “B” quality apartment communities those earning rents between 90% and 125% of local market average; “C+” quality apartment communities those earning rents greater than $1,100 per month, but lower than 90% of local market average; and “C” quality apartment communities those earning rents less than $1,100 per month and lower than 90% of local market average.

REAL ESTATE CLASSIFICATIONS: Aimco’s portfolio of apartment communities is diversified by both price point and geography. Aimco’s portfolio is classified into three segments, as follows:

SAME STORE: Same Store apartment communities are apartment communities that (a) are owned and managed by Aimco, (b) had reached a stabilized level of operations as of January 1, 2019, and maintained it throughout the current and the comparable prior periods, and (c) are not expected to be sold within 12 months.

REDEVELOPMENT/DEVELOPMENT: Includes apartment communities currently under construction that have not achieved a stabilized level of operations and communities that have been completed in recent years that had not achieved and maintained stabilized operations for both the current and the comparable prior periods.

ACQUISITION AND OTHER REAL ESTATE: Includes communities acquired since January 1, 2019, communities subject to limitations on rent increases, communities that Aimco expects to sell within 12 months that do not meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale, communities that Aimco expects to redevelop, and certain commercial spaces.

SOLD AND HELD FOR SALE APARTMENT COMMUNITIES: Apartment communities either sold since January 1, 2019 or classified as held for sale at the end of the period. For purposes of highlighting results of operations related to Aimco’s retained portfolio, results for Sold and Held For Sale Apartment Communities are excluded from property net operating income and presented separately on a net basis on Supplemental Schedule 2. Information about property net operating income for sold and held for sale apartment communities may be found on Supplemental Schedule 3.

TURNOVER and RETENTION: Turnover represents the percentage of residents who have moved out in the trailing twelve months. It is calculated by dividing the number of move outs in the trailing twelve months, exclusive of intra-community transfers, by the daily average number of occupied apartment homes during the trailing twelve months. For the twelve months ended September 30, 2020, Turnover was 41.9%, 280 basis points lower than the twelve months ended September 30, 2019. Inclusive of intra-community transfers, Turnover was 46.6% for the trailing twelve months ended September 30, 2020.

Retention represents the inverse of Turnover, as defined above.
