PRESS RELEASE

For Immediate Release

 

Bluerock Residential Growth REIT Announces Second Quarter 2017 Results

 

New York, NY (August 8, 2017) – Bluerock Residential Growth REIT, Inc. (NYSE MKT: BRG) (“the Company”) announced today its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2017.

 

Highlights

 

Total revenues grew 47% to $27.0 million for the quarter from $18.4 million for the prior year quarter primarily as a result of significant investment activity in the past year, offset by the sales of four properties in 2017 and one in 2016.

 

Net income attributable to common stockholders for the second quarter of 2017 was $0.67 per share, as compared to net loss attributable to common shareholders of $(0.24) per share in the prior year period. Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders included non-cash expenses of $0.66 per share in the second quarter of 2017 vs. $0.45 per share for the prior year period.

 

Adjusted funds from operations attributable to common stockholders (“AFFO”) was $3.3 million for the quarter compared to $4.4 million for the prior year quarter.

 

AFFO per share is $0.13 for the second quarter of 2017 as compared to $0.21 for the second quarter of 2016, and exceeded guidance of $0.01 - $0.02.

 

Pro forma AFFO per share of $0.36 for the second quarter exceeded pro forma guidance of $0.26 to $0.28 per share.

 

The Company paid the full amount of the second quarter’s base management fees in LTIP Units in lieu of cash payment. This favorably impacted AFFO per share and pro forma AFFO per share by $0.10 and $0.09, respectively.

 

Property Net Operating Income (NOI) grew 30% to $14.3 million for the quarter, from $11.0 million in the prior year quarter.

 

Property NOI margins were 57.3% of revenue for the quarter, compared to 59.8% of revenue in the prior year quarter. Property NOI margins were impacted by the sales of more stabilized assets with proceeds being recycled into replacement properties with higher growth opportunities, which require time to realize margin improvement.

 

Same store NOI increased 2.3% for the quarter, as compared to the prior year quarter.

 

 

 

 

Consolidated real estate investments, at cost, increased 10% to $1.1 billion at June 30, 2017 from $1.0 billion at December 31, 2016.

 

The Company invested in a portfolio of five operating properties totaling 1,408 units for a total purchase price of approximately $188.9 million during the second quarter.

 

The Company declared a monthly dividend for July 2017 of $0.096666 per share on the Company's Class A common stock.

 

The Company sold 50,501 shares of Series B preferred stock with associated warrants at a public offering price of $1,000 per unit, for gross proceeds of approximately $50.5 million during the second quarter, an increase in gross proceeds of 114% over the first quarter.

 

Management Commentary

 

“We are pleased to report the acquisition of a portfolio of five operating properties totaling 1,408 units for approximately $189 million, continued momentum in the Series B preferred continuous offering raise with second quarter gross proceeds of over $50 million and the recycling of capital through the disposition of interests in three properties at significant gains during the second quarter,” said Ramin Kamfar, the Company’s Chairman and CEO. “Importantly, on August 4, 2017, we also signed definitive agreements to effect the Company’s internalization of its external management function, which will be subject to a vote of our common stockholders at our upcoming annual meeting of stockholders.”

 

Second Quarter Acquisition and Disposition Activity

 

On April 26, 2017, the Company sold its interest in the Lansbrook Village apartments in Palm Harbor, Florida at a total sale price of approximately $82.4 million, recognized a pro rata gain of $16.1 million, with net proceeds of approximately $19.1 million to the Company, generating an internal rate of return of 25% on BRG’s equity investment in the project, for an equity multiple of 1.71x.

 

On May 24, 2017, the Company sold its interest in the Fox Hill apartments in Austin, Texas at a total sale price of approximately $46.5 million, recognized a pro rata gain of $10.3 million, with net proceeds of approximately $16.4 million to the Company, generating an internal rate of return of 26% on BRG’s equity investment in the project, for an equity multiple of 1.62x.

 

On June 9, 2017, the Company acquired a 90% investment in a 1,408-unit five-property portfolio of multifamily communities located in San Antonio and Tyler, Texas. The total purchase price of approximately $188.9 million includes the assumption of approximately $146.4 million of existing mortgage debt.

 

On June 30, 2017, the Company sold its interest in the MDA apartments in Chicago, Illinois at a total sale price of approximately $18.3 million, recognized a pro rata gain of $6.4 million, with net proceeds of approximately $11.0 million to the Company, generating an internal rate of return of 22% on BRG’s equity investment in the project, for an equity multiple of 2.23x.

 

Pending Investments at June 30, 2017

 

The Company has an agreement which entitles the Company to make a 80% investment in a 384-unit apartment community located in Houston, Texas, known as Villages at Cypress Creek, subject to certain conditions. The total purchase price is expected to be approximately $40.7 million.

 

The Company has an agreement which entitles the Company to make a 98% investment in a 336-unit apartment community located in Orlando, Florida, known as Citrus Tower, subject to certain conditions. The total purchase price is expected to be approximately $55.3 million.

 

 

 

 

Second Quarter 2017 Financial Results

 

Net income attributable to common stockholders for the second quarter of 2017 was $17.6 million, compared to a net loss of $5.0 million in the prior year period. The change was primarily driven by positive increases in property NOI of $3.3 million, interest income of $2.1 million and a gain on sale of real estate investments of $43.8 million, offset by increases in management fees of $4.7 million, depreciation and amortization expense of $2.6 million, interest expense of $3.2 million, loss on extinguishment of debt of $1.6 million, preferred stock dividends and accretion of $3.8 million and non-controlling income allocation of $10.2 million.

 

AFFO for the second quarter of 2017 was $3.3 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, compared to $4.4 million, or $0.21 per share in the prior year period. AFFO was primarily impacted by increases in property NOI of $3.3 million arising from significant investment activity offset by sales of properties, interest income of $2.1 million and offset by interest expense of $2.5 million and preferred stock dividends of $3.4 million.

 

Same Store Portfolio Performance

 

Same store NOI for the second quarter of 2017 increased by 2.3% from the same period in the prior year. There was a 2.4% increase in same store property revenues compared to the same prior year period, primarily attributable to a 3.5% increase in average rental rates offset by a 52 basis point decrease in average occupancy. Same store expenses increased 2.6% due to an increase in repair and maintenance across the portfolio.

 

Management Internalization

 

On August 4, 2017, the Company announced that it had entered into definitive agreements providing for the Company’s internalization of the external management function currently provided by the Manager and the direct employment of the Manager’s existing management team and certain other employees. The internalization consideration will be calculated pursuant to a formula established in the Management Agreement at the time of the Company’s initial public offering in April 2014 and is expected to be approximately $41-$42 million. To further align the interests of the Company’s management team with those of the Company’s stockholders, 99.9% of the consideration will be paid in equity, comprised of units of limited partnership interest (“OP Units”) in the Company’s operating partnership, and shares of Class C Common Stock, which are being issued to provide the recipients with a voting franchise commensurate with their economic interest in the OP Units. Upon closing of the internalization, which is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company will become a self-managed real estate investment trust. The proposed transaction was unanimously approved by the Special Committee of independent directors and the Company’s full board of directors, but remains subject to approval of the issuances of equity by a majority of disinterested stockholders voting at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders and other customary closing conditions.

 

 

 

 

Dividend Details

 

On July 10, 2017, our board of directors authorized, and we declared, a monthly dividend for July 2017 of $0.096666 per share on our Class A common stock, payable to the stockholders of record as of July 25, 2017, which was paid in cash on August 4, 2017. Holders of OP and LTIP Units are entitled to receive "distribution equivalents" at the same time as dividends are paid to holders of our Class A common stock. A portion of each dividend may constitute a return of capital for tax purposes. There is no assurance that we will continue to declare dividends or at this rate.

 

On August 4, 2017, we announced that our board of directors has initiated, in conjunction with a financial advisor, a review of the appropriate Company’s dividend policy for the Company’s Class A Common stock. The board’s evaluation will consider factors including, but not limited to, achieving a sustainable dividend covered by current recurring AFFO (vs. pro forma AFFO), multifamily and small cap peer ratios, providing financial flexibility for the Company, and achieving an appropriate balance between the retention of capital to invest and grow net asset value, and the importance of current distributions. The board is expected to complete its review of the dividend policy for the Company’s Class A Common Stock in the fourth quarter of 2017.

 

On July 10, 2017, our board of directors authorized, and we declared, a monthly dividend of $5.00 per share of Series B preferred stock, payable to the stockholders of record as of July 25, 2017, which was paid in cash on August 4, 2017, and as of August 25, 2017, and September 25, 2017, which will be paid in cash on September 5, 2017 and October 5, 2017, respectively.

 

The board’s review of dividend policy will address the dividend policy for the Company’s Class A Common Stock only. The terms of each series of the Company’s issued and outstanding preferred stock provide for fixed annual dividend rates, and are not subject to adjustment at the board’s discretion.

 

Q3 2017 Outlook

 

For the third quarter of 2017, the Company anticipates AFFO in the range of ($0.03) to ($0.02) per share, and $0.25 to $0.27 per share on a pro forma basis. For assumptions underlying earnings guidance, please see page 29 of Company’s Q2 2017 Earnings Supplement available under Investor Relations on the Company’s website ( www.bluerockresidential.com ). Pro forma AFFO is used for illustrative purposes only, is hypothetical and does not represent historical performance or management’s estimates or projections for future performance.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

The foregoing supplemental financial data includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that we believe are helpful in understanding our business and performance, as further described below. Our definition and calculation of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from those of other REITs, and may, therefore, not be comparable.

 

Funds from Operations and Adjusted Funds from Operations

 

Funds from operations attributable to common stockholders (“FFO”) is a non-GAAP financial measure that is widely recognized as a measure of REIT operating performance. We consider FFO to be an appropriate supplemental measure of our operating performance as it is based on a net income analysis of property portfolio performance that excludes non-cash items such as depreciation. The historical accounting convention used for real estate assets requires straight-line depreciation of buildings and improvements, which implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values historically rise and fall with market conditions, presentations of operating results for a REIT, using historical accounting for depreciation, could be less informative. We define FFO, consistent with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or (“NAREIT's”) definition, as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, plus impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis.

 

In addition to FFO, we use adjusted funds from operations attributable to common stockholders (“AFFO”). AFFO is a computation made by analysts and investors to measure a real estate company's operating performance by removing the effect of items that do not reflect ongoing property operations. To calculate AFFO, we further adjust FFO by adding back certain items that are not added to net income in NAREIT's definition of FFO, such as acquisition and pursuit costs, equity based compensation expenses, and any other non-recurring or non-cash expenses, which are costs that do not relate to the operating performance of our properties, and subtracting recurring capital expenditures (and when calculating the quarterly incentive fee payable to our Manager only, we further adjust FFO to include any realized gains or losses on our real estate investments).

 

Our calculation of AFFO differs from the methodology used for calculating AFFO by certain other REITs and, accordingly, our AFFO may not be comparable to AFFO reported by other REITs. Our management utilizes FFO and AFFO as measures of our operating performance after adjustment for certain non-cash items, such as depreciation and amortization expenses, and acquisition and pursuit costs that are required by GAAP to be expensed but may not necessarily be indicative of current operating performance and that may not accurately compare our operating performance between periods. Furthermore, although FFO, AFFO and other supplemental performance measures are defined in various ways throughout the REIT industry, we also believe that FFO and AFFO may provide us and our stockholders with an additional useful measure to compare our financial performance to certain other REITs. We also use AFFO for purposes of determining the quarterly incentive fee, if any, payable to our Manager.

 

Neither FFO nor AFFO is equivalent to net income, including net income attributable to common stockholders, or cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, FFO and AFFO do not represent amounts available for management's discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments or uncertainties. Neither FFO nor AFFO should be considered as an alternative to net income, including net income attributable to common stockholders, as an indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.

 

 

 

 

We have acquired interests in thirteen additional operating properties and three development investments and sold six properties subsequent to June 30, 2016. The results presented in the table below are not directly comparable and should not be considered an indication of our future operating performance.

(1)     The real estate depreciation and amortization amount includes our share of consolidated real estate-related depreciation and amortization of intangibles, less amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests, and our similar estimated share of unconsolidated depreciation and amortization, which is included in earnings of our unconsolidated real estate joint venture investments.

 

(2) Pro forma AFFO for the three months ended June 30, 2017 assumes the investment of $104 million in estimated available cash had occurred on April 1, 2017:

 

                  Investment  
#   Investment   MSA   # Units     Amount ($MM's)  
1   Acquisition - Identified Assets   San Antonio & Tyler, TX     1,408     $ 48  
2   Mezzanine Loan - Identified Developments   Atlanta, GA     399       7  
3   Acquisition - Unidentified Assets, assumes 5.75% cap rate   -     -       17  
4   Mezzanine Loan - Unidentified   -     -       32  
    Total               $ 104  

 

The pro forma guidance is being presented solely for purposes of illustrating the potential impact of these pipeline transactions, as well as future investments to be made with funds we have available for investment, as if they had occurred at April 1, 2017, based on information currently available to management and assumptions management has made with respect to our future pipeline.

 

The Company is providing no assurances that any of the above transactions are probable, or that they will close or that management will identify or acquire investments consistent with our pipeline assumptions, and the failure to do so would significantly impact pro forma guidance. The actual timing of these investments, if and when made, will vary materially from the assumed timing reflected in the pro forma guidance, and actual quarterly results will differ significantly from the pro forma guidance shown above. Investors should not rely on pro forma guidance as a forecast of the actual performance of the Company.

 

 

 

 

Earnings Before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA")

 

EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, calculated on a consolidated basis. We consider EBITDA to be an appropriate supplemental measure of our performance because it eliminates depreciation, income taxes, interest and non-recurring items, which permits investors to view income from operations unobscured by non-cash items such as depreciation, amortization, the cost of debt or non-recurring items. Below is a reconciliation of net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders to EBITDA (unaudited and dollars in thousands).

Adjusted EBITDA   $ 17,576     $ 13,102     $ 35,962     $ 25,268  

 

Recurring Capital Expenditures

 

We define recurring capital expenditures as expenditures that are incurred at every property and exclude development, investment, revenue enhancing and non-recurring capital expenditures.

 

Non-Recurring Capital Expenditures

 

We define non-recurring capital expenditures as expenditures for significant projects that upgrade units or common areas and projects that are revenue enhancing.

 

Same Store Properties

 

Same store properties are conventional multifamily residential apartments which were owned and operational for the entire periods presented, including each comparative period.

 

Property Net Operating Income ("Property NOI")

 

We believe that net operating income, or NOI, is a useful measure of our operating performance. We define NOI as total property revenues less total property operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization and interest. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. We believe that this measure provides an operating perspective not immediately apparent from GAAP operating income or net income. We use NOI to evaluate our performance on a same store and non-same store basis because NOI measures the core operations of property performance by excluding corporate level expenses and other items not related to property operating performance and captures trends in rental housing and property operating expenses. However, NOI should only be used as an alternative measure of our financial performance.

 

 

 

 

The following table reflects net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders together with a reconciliation to NOI and to same store and non-same store contributions to consolidated NOI, as computed in accordance with GAAP for the periods presented (unaudited and amounts in thousands):

PRESS RELEASE

For Immediate Release

 

Bluerock Residential Growth REIT Announces Second Quarter 2017 Results

 

New York, NY (August 8, 2017) – Bluerock Residential Growth REIT, Inc. (NYSE MKT: BRG) (“the Company”) announced today its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2017.

 

Highlights

 

Total revenues grew 47% to $27.0 million for the quarter from $18.4 million for the prior year quarter primarily as a result of significant investment activity in the past year, offset by the sales of four properties in 2017 and one in 2016.

 

Net income attributable to common stockholders for the second quarter of 2017 was $0.67 per share, as compared to net loss attributable to common shareholders of $(0.24) per share in the prior year period. Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders included non-cash expenses of $0.66 per share in the second quarter of 2017 vs. $0.45 per share for the prior year period.

 

Adjusted funds from operations attributable to common stockholders (“AFFO”) was $3.3 million for the quarter compared to $4.4 million for the prior year quarter.

 

AFFO per share is $0.13 for the second quarter of 2017 as compared to $0.21 for the second quarter of 2016, and exceeded guidance of $0.01 - $0.02.

 

Pro forma AFFO per share of $0.36 for the second quarter exceeded pro forma guidance of $0.26 to $0.28 per share.

 

The Company paid the full amount of the second quarter’s base management fees in LTIP Units in lieu of cash payment. This favorably impacted AFFO per share and pro forma AFFO per share by $0.10 and $0.09, respectively.

 

Property Net Operating Income (NOI) grew 30% to $14.3 million for the quarter, from $11.0 million in the prior year quarter.

 

Property NOI margins were 57.3% of revenue for the quarter, compared to 59.8% of revenue in the prior year quarter. Property NOI margins were impacted by the sales of more stabilized assets with proceeds being recycled into replacement properties with higher growth opportunities, which require time to realize margin improvement.

 

Same store NOI increased 2.3% for the quarter, as compared to the prior year quarter.

Second Quarter 2017 Financial Results

 

Net income attributable to common stockholders for the second quarter of 2017 was $17.6 million, compared to a net loss of $5.0 million in the prior year period. The change was primarily driven by positive increases in property NOI of $3.3 million, interest income of $2.1 million and a gain on sale of real estate investments of $43.8 million, offset by increases in management fees of $4.7 million, depreciation and amortization expense of $2.6 million, interest expense of $3.2 million, loss on extinguishment of debt of $1.6 million, preferred stock dividends and accretion of $3.8 million and non-controlling income allocation of $10.2 million.

 

AFFO for the second quarter of 2017 was $3.3 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, compared to $4.4 million, or $0.21 per share in the prior year period. AFFO was primarily impacted by increases in property NOI of $3.3 million arising from significant investment activity offset by sales of properties, interest income of $2.1 million and offset by interest expense of $2.5 million and preferred stock dividends of $3.4 million.

 

Same Store Portfolio Performance

 

Same store NOI for the second quarter of 2017 increased by 2.3% from the same period in the prior year. There was a 2.4% increase in same store property revenues compared to the same prior year period, primarily attributable to a 3.5% increase in average rental rates offset by a 52 basis point decrease in average occupancy. Same store expenses increased 2.6% due to an increase in repair and maintenance across the portfolio.

 

Management Internalization

 

On August 4, 2017, the Company announced that it had entered into definitive agreements providing for the Company’s internalization of the external management function currently provided by the Manager and the direct employment of the Manager’s existing management team and certain other employees. The internalization consideration will be calculated pursuant to a formula established in the Management Agreement at the time of the Company’s initial public offering in April 2014 and is expected to be approximately $41-$42 million. To further align the interests of the Company’s management team with those of the Company’s stockholders, 99.9% of the consideration will be paid in equity, comprised of units of limited partnership interest (“OP Units”) in the Company’s operating partnership, and shares of Class C Common Stock, which are being issued to provide the recipients with a voting franchise commensurate with their economic interest in the OP Units. Upon closing of the internalization, which is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company will become a self-managed real estate investment trust. The proposed transaction was unanimously approved by the Special Committee of independent directors and the Company’s full board of directors, but remains subject to approval of the issuances of equity by a majority of disinterested stockholders voting at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders and other customary closing conditions.

On August 4, 2017, we announced that our board of directors has initiated, in conjunction with a financial advisor, a review of the appropriate Company’s dividend policy for the Company’s Class A Common stock. The board’s evaluation will consider factors including, but not limited to, achieving a sustainable dividend covered by current recurring AFFO (vs. pro forma AFFO), multifamily and small cap peer ratios, providing financial flexibility for the Company, and achieving an appropriate balance between the retention of capital to invest and grow net asset value, and the importance of current distributions. The board is expected to complete its review of the dividend policy for the Company’s Class A Common Stock in the fourth quarter of 2017.

The board’s review of dividend policy will address the dividend policy for the Company’s Class A Common Stock only.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

The foregoing supplemental financial data includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that we believe are helpful in understanding our business and performance, as further described below. Our definition and calculation of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from those of other REITs, and may, therefore, not be comparable.

 

Funds from Operations and Adjusted Funds from Operations

 

Funds from operations attributable to common stockholders (“FFO”) is a non-GAAP financial measure that is widely recognized as a measure of REIT operating performance. We consider FFO to be an appropriate supplemental measure of our operating performance as it is based on a net income analysis of property portfolio performance that excludes non-cash items such as depreciation. The historical accounting convention used for real estate assets requires straight-line depreciation of buildings and improvements, which implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values historically rise and fall with market conditions, presentations of operating results for a REIT, using historical accounting for depreciation, could be less informative. We define FFO, consistent with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or (“NAREIT's”) definition, as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, plus impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis.

 

In addition to FFO, we use adjusted funds from operations attributable to common stockholders (“AFFO”). AFFO is a computation made by analysts and investors to measure a real estate company's operating performance by removing the effect of items that do not reflect ongoing property operations. To calculate AFFO, we further adjust FFO by adding back certain items that are not added to net income in NAREIT's definition of FFO, such as acquisition and pursuit costs, equity based compensation expenses, and any other non-recurring or non-cash expenses, which are costs that do not relate to the operating performance of our properties, and subtracting recurring capital expenditures (and when calculating the quarterly incentive fee payable to our Manager only, we further adjust FFO to include any realized gains or losses on our real estate investments).

 

Our calculation of AFFO differs from the methodology used for calculating AFFO by certain other REITs and, accordingly, our AFFO may not be comparable to AFFO reported by other REITs. Our management utilizes FFO and AFFO as measures of our operating performance after adjustment for certain non-cash items, such as depreciation and amortization expenses, and acquisition and pursuit costs that are required by GAAP to be expensed but may not necessarily be indicative of current operating performance and that may not accurately compare our operating performance between periods. Furthermore, although FFO, AFFO and other supplemental performance measures are defined in various ways throughout the REIT industry, we also believe that FFO and AFFO may provide us and our stockholders with an additional useful measure to compare our financial performance to certain other REITs. We also use AFFO for purposes of determining the quarterly incentive fee, if any, payable to our Manager.

 

Neither FFO nor AFFO is equivalent to net income, including net income attributable to common stockholders, or cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, FFO and AFFO do not represent amounts available for management's discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments or uncertainties. Neither FFO nor AFFO should be considered as an alternative to net income, including net income attributable to common stockholders, as an indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.

    Total               $ 104  

 

The pro forma guidance is being presented solely for purposes of illustrating the potential impact of these pipeline transactions, as well as future investments to be made with funds we have available for investment, as if they had occurred at April 1, 2017, based on information currently available to management and assumptions management has made with respect to our future pipeline.

 

The Company is providing no assurances that any of the above transactions are probable, or that they will close or that management will identify or acquire investments consistent with our pipeline assumptions, and the failure to do so would significantly impact pro forma guidance. The actual timing of these investments, if and when made, will vary materially from the assumed timing reflected in the pro forma guidance, and actual quarterly results will differ significantly from the pro forma guidance shown above. Investors should not rely on pro forma guidance as a forecast of the actual performance of the Company.

Earnings Before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA")

 

EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, calculated on a consolidated basis. We consider EBITDA to be an appropriate supplemental measure of our performance because it eliminates depreciation, income taxes, interest and non-recurring items, which permits investors to view income from operations unobscured by non-cash items such as depreciation, amortization, the cost of debt or non-recurring items. Below is a reconciliation of net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders to EBITDA (unaudited and dollars in thousands).

Recurring Capital Expenditures

 

We define recurring capital expenditures as expenditures that are incurred at every property and exclude development, investment, revenue enhancing and non-recurring capital expenditures.

 

Non-Recurring Capital Expenditures

 

We define non-recurring capital expenditures as expenditures for significant projects that upgrade units or common areas and projects that are revenue enhancing.

 

Same Store Properties

 

Same store properties are conventional multifamily residential apartments which were owned and operational for the entire periods presented, including each comparative period.

 

Property Net Operating Income ("Property NOI")

 

We believe that net operating income, or NOI, is a useful measure of our operating performance. We define NOI as total property revenues less total property operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization and interest. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. We believe that this measure provides an operating perspective not immediately apparent from GAAP operating income or net income. We use NOI to evaluate our performance on a same store and non-same store basis because NOI measures the core operations of property performance by excluding corporate level expenses and other items not related to property operating performance and captures trends in rental housing and property operating expenses. However, NOI should only be used as an alternative measure of our financial performance.

(3)     Total weighted average shares for the quarter, including OP units of 275,494 was 26,352,066. AFFO related to the OP units is excluded from the calculation above. When including both, AFFO attributable to OP units and 275,494 of OP units in the weighted average share count, in the above calculation, AFFO is $0.13 per share.

(4) Pro forma AFFO for the three months ended June 30, 2017 assumes the investment of $104 million in estimated available cash had occurred on April 1, 2017:

 

                    Investment  
#   Investment   MSA     # Units     Amount ($MM's)  
1   Acquisition - Identified Assets     San Antonio & Tyler, TX       1,408     $ 48

4   Mezzanine Loan - Unidentified     -       -       32  
    Total                   $ 104  

 

The pro forma guidance is being presented solely for purposes of illustrating the potential impact of these pipeline transactions, as well as future investments to be made with funds we have available for investment, as if they had occurred at April 1, 2017, based on information currently available to management and assumptions management has made with respect to our future pipeline.

 

The Company is providing no assurances that any of the above transactions are probable, or that they will close or that management will identify or acquire investments consistent with our pipeline assumptions, and the failure to do so would significantly impact pro forma guidance. The actual timing of these investments, if and when made, will vary materially from the assumed timing reflected in the pro forma guidance, and actual quarterly results will differ significantly from the pro forma guidance shown above. Investors should not rely on pro forma guidance as a forecast of the actual performance of the Company.

The pro forma guidance is being presented solely for purposes of illustrating the potential impact of these pipeline transactions, as well as future investments to be made with funds we have available for investment, as if they had occurred at July 1, 2017, based on information currently available to management and assumptions management has made with respect to our future pipeline.

 

The Company is providing no assurances that any of the above transactions are probable, or that they will close or that management will identify or acquire investments consistent with our pipeline assumptions, and the failure to do so would significantly impact pro forma guidance. The actual timing of these investments, if and when made, will vary materially from the assumed timing reflected in the pro forma guidance, and actual quarterly results will differ significantly from the pro forma guidance shown above. Investors should not rely on pro forma guidance as a forecast of the actual performance of the Company.

 

(8) The Company has not reconciled projected and pro forma Adjusted Funds From Operations Attributable to Common Shareholders per share (“AFFO”) guidance to the corresponding GAAP financial measure because it does not provide guidance for various reconciling items. The Company is unable to provide guidance for these reconciling items since certain items that impact net income are outside of its control and cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, reconciliations to the corresponding GAAP financial measures are not available.

Bluerock Residential Growth REIT, Inc.

Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

 

The foregoing supplemental financial data includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that we believe are helpful in understanding our business, as further described below. Our definition and calculation of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from those of other REITs, and may, therefore, not be comparable.

 

Funds from Operations and Adjusted Funds from Operations, Attributable to Common Shareholders

Funds from operations attributable to common stockholders (“FFO”), is a non-GAAP financial measure that is widely recognized as a measure of REIT operating performance. We consider FFO to be an appropriate supplemental measure of our operating performance as it is based on a net income analysis of property portfolio performance that excludes non-cash items such as depreciation. The historical accounting convention used for real estate assets requires straight-line depreciation of buildings and improvements, which implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values historically rise and fall with market conditions, presentations of operating results for a REIT, using historical accounting for depreciation, could be less informative. We define FFO, consistent with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or (“NAREIT's”), definition, as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, plus impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis.

 

In addition to FFO, we use adjusted funds from operations attributable to common stockholders (“AFFO”). AFFO is a computation made by analysts and investors to measure a real estate company's operating performance by removing the effect of items that do not reflect ongoing property operations. To calculate AFFO, we further adjust FFO by adding back certain items that are not added to net income in NAREIT's definition of FFO, such as acquisition and pursuit costs, equity based compensation expenses, and any other non-recurring or non-cash expenses, which are costs that do not relate to the operating performance of our properties, and subtracting recurring capital expenditures (and when calculating the quarterly incentive fee payable to our Manager only, we further adjust FFO to include any realized gains or losses on our real estate investments).

 

Our calculation of AFFO differs from the methodology used for calculating AFFO by certain other REITs and, accordingly, our AFFO may not be comparable to AFFO reported by other REITs. Our management utilizes FFO and AFFO as measures of our operating performance after adjustment for certain non-cash items, such as depreciation and amortization expenses, and acquisition and pursuit costs that are required by GAAP to be expensed but may not necessarily be indicative of current operating performance and that may not accurately compare our operating performance between periods. Furthermore, although FFO, AFFO and other supplemental performance measures are defined in various ways throughout the REIT industry, we also believe that FFO and AFFO may provide us and our stockholders with an additional useful measure to compare our financial performance to certain other REITs. We also use AFFO for purposes of determining the quarterly incentive fee, if any, payable to our Manager.

 

Neither FFO nor AFFO is equivalent to net income or cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, FFO and AFFO do not represent amounts available for management's discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments or uncertainties. Neither FFO nor AFFO should be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.

 

We have acquired interests in thirteen additional operating properties and three development investments, and sold six properties subsequent to June 30, 2016. The results presented in the table below are not directly comparable and should not be considered an indication of our future operating performance (unaudited and dollars in thousands, except share and per share data).

 

Recurring Capital Expenditures

We define recurring capital expenditures as expenditures that are incurred at every property and exclude development, investment, revenue enhancing and non-recurring capital expenditures.

 

Non-Recurring Capital Expenditures

We define non-recurring capital expenditures as expenditures for significant projects that upgrade units or common areas and projects that are revenue enhancing.

 

Same Store Properties

Same store properties are conventional multifamily residential apartments which were owned and operational for the entire periods presented.

Earnings Before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA")

 

EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, calculated on a consolidated basis. We consider EBITDA to be an appropriate supplemental measure of our performance because it eliminates depreciation, income taxes, interest and non-recurring items, which permits investors to view income from operations unobscured by non-cash items such as depreciation, amortization, the cost of debt or non-recurring items. Below is a reconciliation of net income (loss) applicable to common shares to EBITDA.

Property Net Operating Income ("Property NOI")

 

We believe that net operating income, or NOI, is a useful measure of our operating performance. We define NOI as total property revenues less total property operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization and interest. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. We believe that this measure provides an operating perspective not immediately apparent from GAAP operating income or net income. We use NOI to evaluate our performance on a same store and non-same store basis because NOI measures the core operations of property performance by excluding corporate level expenses and other items not related to property operating performance and captures trends in rental housing and property operating expenses. However, NOI should only be used as an alternative measure of our financial performance.

 

The following table reflects net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders together with a reconciliation to NOI and to same store and non-same store contributions to consolidated NOI, as computed in accordance with GAAP for the periods presented:
