Gladstone Commercial Corporation
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1. Organization, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Gladstone Commercial Corporation is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that was incorporated under the General Corporation Law of the State of Maryland on February 14, 2003. We focus on acquiring, owning and managing primarily office and industrial properties. On a selective basis, we may make long term industrial and office mortgage loans; however, we do not have any mortgage loans currently outstanding. Subject to certain restrictions and limitations, our business is managed by Gladstone Management Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Adviser”), and administrative services are provided by Gladstone Administration, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Administrator”), each pursuant to a contractual arrangement with us. Our Adviser and Administrator collectively employ all of our personnel and pay their salaries, benefits, and other general expenses directly. Gladstone Commercial Corporation conducts substantially all of its operations through a subsidiary, Gladstone Commercial Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”).

All references herein to “we,” “our,” “us” and the “Company” mean Gladstone Commercial Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries, except where it is made clear that the term means only Gladstone Commercial Corporation.

Interim Financial Information

Our interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and in accordance with Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP are omitted. The year-end balance sheet data presented herein was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. In the opinion of our management, all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring accruals, necessary for the fair statement of financial statements for the interim period, have been included. The interim financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on February 12, 2020. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for other interim periods or for the full fiscal year.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, including the impact of extraordinary events such as the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Significant Accounting Policies

The preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP, requires management to make judgments that are subjective in nature to make certain estimates and assumptions. Application of these accounting policies involves the exercise of judgment regarding the use of assumptions as to future uncertainties, and as a result, actual results could materially differ from these estimates. A summary of all of our significant accounting policies is provided in Note 1, “Organization, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies,” to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. On January 1, 2020, we completed the integration of the accounting records of certain of our triple net leased third-party asset managed properties into our accounting system and paid out of our operating bank accounts. For periods prior to January 1, 2020, we recorded property operating expenses and offsetting lease revenues for these certain triple net leased properties on a net basis. Beginning January 1, 2020, we are recording the property operating expenses and offsetting lease revenues for these triple net leased properties on a gross basis, as we have amended our process whereby we are paying operating expenses on behalf of our tenants and receiving reimbursement, whereas, previously these tenants were paying these expenses directly with limited insight provided to us. There were no other material changes to our critical accounting policies during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326)” (“ASU 2016-13”). The new standard requires more timely recognition of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments that are not accounted for at fair market value through net income. The standard also requires that financial assets measured at amortized cost be presented at the net amounts anticipated to be collected, through an allowance for credit losses that is deducted from the amortized cost basis. We are required to measure all expected credit losses based upon historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the financial assets. We adopted ASU 2016-13 beginning with the three months ended March 31, 2020. Adopting ASU 2016-13 has not resulted in a material impact to our consolidated financial statements, as we do not have any loans receivable outstanding.

In March 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)” (“ASU 2020-04”). The main provisions of this update provide optional expedients and exceptions for contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference the London Inter-bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. ASU 2020-04 is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020. We adopted ASU 2020-04 beginning with the three months ended March 31, 2020. Adopting ASU 2020-04 has not resulted in a material impact to our consolidated statements, as ASU 2020-04 allows for prospective application of any changes in the effective interest rate for our LIBOR based debt, and allows for practical expedients that will allow us to treat our derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges consistent with how they are currently accounted for.

In April 2020, the FASB issued a staff question-and-answer document, Topic 842 and Topic 840: Accounting for Lease Concessions related to the Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic (“COVID-19 Q&A”), to address frequently asked questions pertaining to lease concessions arising from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Existing lease guidance requires entities to determine if a lease concession was a result of a new arrangement reached with the tenant, which would be addressed under the lease modification accounting framework, or if a lease concession was under the enforceable rights and obligations within the existing lease agreement, which would not fall under the lease modification accounting framework. The COVID-19 Q&A clarifies that entities may elect to not evaluate whether lease-related relief granted in light of the effects of COVID-19 is a lease modification, as long as the concession does not result in a substantial increase in rights of the lessor or obligations of the lessee. This election is available for concessions that result in the total payments required by the modified contract being substantially the same as or less than the total payments required by the original contract. At this time, we have granted rent deferrals to three tenants representing approximately 2% of total portfolio rents. The agreements with these tenants include current partial payment in exchange for rent deferrals of varying terms with deferred amounts to be paid by the respective tenant back to us, for the period starting in July 2020 and ending through March 2021. We have elected to not evaluate these leases under the lease modification accounting framework.

2. Related-Party Transactions

Gladstone Management and Gladstone Administration

We are externally managed pursuant to contractual arrangements with our Adviser and our Administrator, which collectively employ all of our personnel and pay their salaries, benefits, and other general expenses directly. Both our Adviser and Administrator are affiliates of ours, as their parent company is owned and controlled by Mr. David Gladstone, our chairman and chief executive officer. Two of our executive officers, Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Terry Lee Brubaker (our vice chairman and chief operating officer) serve as directors and executive officers of our Adviser and our Administrator. Our president, Mr. Robert Cutlip, also serves as the executive vice president of commercial & industrial real estate of our Adviser. Mr. Michael LiCalsi, our general counsel and secretary, also serves as our Administrator’s president, general counsel and secretary, as well as executive vice president of administration of our Adviser. We have entered into an advisory agreement with our Adviser, as amended from time to time (the “Advisory Agreement”), and an administration agreement with our Administrator (the “Administration Agreement”). The services and fees under the Advisory Agreement and Administration Agreement are described below. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, $3.3 million and $2.9 million, respectively, were collectively due to our Adviser and Administrator. Our entrance into the Advisory Agreement and each amendment thereto has been approved unanimously by our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors reviews and considers renewing the agreements with our Adviser and Administrator each July. During their July 2020 meeting, our Board of Directors reviewed and renewed the Advisory Agreement and Administration Agreement for an additional year, through August 31, 2021.


9


Base Management Fee

Under the Advisory Agreement, the calculation of the annual base management fee equaled 1.5% of our Total Equity prior to the July 14, 2020 amendment, which is our total stockholders’ equity plus total mezzanine equity (before giving effect to the base management fee and incentive fee), adjusted to exclude the effect of any unrealized gains or losses that do not affect realized net income (including impairment charges), adjusted for any one-time events and certain non-cash items (the later to occur for a given quarter only upon the approval of our Compensation Committee), and adjusted to include operating partnership units in the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”) held by holders who do not control the Operating Partnership (“Non-controlling OP Unitholders”). The fee was calculated and accrued quarterly as 0.375% per quarter of such Total Equity figure. Our Adviser does not charge acquisition or disposition fees when we acquire or dispose of properties, as is common in other externally managed REITs; however, our Adviser may earn fee income from our borrowers, tenants or other sources.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded a base management fee of $1.4 million and $2.8 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded a base management fee of $1.3 million and $2.6 million, respectively.

On July 14, 2020, the Company amended and restated the Advisory Agreement by entering into the Sixth Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement between the Company and the Adviser (the “Amended Agreement”). The Company’s entrance into the Amended Agreement was approved by its board of directors, including, specifically, unanimously by its independent directors. The Amended Agreement revised and replaced the previous calculation of the Base Management Fee, which was based on Total Equity, with a calculation based on Gross Tangible Real Estate. The revised Base Management Fee will be payable quarterly in arrears and shall be calculated at an annual rate of 0.425% (0.10625% per quarter) of the prior calendar quarter’s “Gross Tangible Real Estate,” defined in the Amended Agreement as the current gross value of the Company’s property portfolio (meaning the aggregate of each property’s original acquisition price plus the cost of any subsequent capital improvements thereon). The calculation of the other fees in the Amended Agreement remain unchanged. The revised Base Management Fee calculation will begin with the fee calculations for the quarter ending September 30, 2020.

Incentive Fee

Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, the calculation of the incentive fee rewards the Adviser in circumstances where our quarterly Core FFO (defined at the end of this paragraph), before giving effect to any incentive fee, or pre-incentive fee Core FFO, exceeds 2.0% quarterly, or 8.0% annualized, of adjusted total stockholders’ equity (after giving effect to the base management fee but before giving effect to the incentive fee). We refer to this as the hurdle rate. The Adviser will receive 15.0% of the amount of our pre-incentive fee Core FFO that exceeds the hurdle rate. However, in no event shall the incentive fee for a particular quarter exceed by 15.0% (the cap) the average quarterly incentive fee paid by us for the previous four quarters (excluding quarters for which no incentive fee was paid). Core FFO (as defined in the Advisory Agreement) is GAAP net income (loss) available to common stockholders, excluding the incentive fee, depreciation and amortization, any realized and unrealized gains, losses or other non-cash items recorded in net income (loss) available to common stockholders for the period, and one-time events pursuant to changes in GAAP.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded an incentive fee of $1.1 million and $2.2 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded an incentive fee of $0.9 million and $1.8 million, respectively. The Adviser did not waive any portion of the incentive fee for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 or 2019, respectively.

Capital Gain Fee

Under the Advisory Agreement, we will pay to the Adviser a capital gain-based incentive fee that will be calculated and payable in arrears as of the end of each fiscal year (or upon termination of the Advisory Agreement). In determining the capital gain fee, we will calculate aggregate realized capital gains and aggregate realized capital losses for the applicable time period. For this purpose, aggregate realized capital gains and losses, if any, equals the realized gain or loss calculated by the difference between the sales price of the property, less any costs to sell the property and the current gross value of the property (equal to the property’s original acquisition price plus any subsequent non-reimbursed capital improvements) of the disposed property. At the end of the fiscal year, if this number is positive, then the capital gain fee payable for such time period shall equal 15.0% of such amount. No capital gain fee was recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 or 2019.


10


Termination Fee

The Advisory Agreement includes a termination fee whereby, in the event of our termination of the agreement without cause (with 120 days’ prior written notice and the vote of at least two-thirds of our independent directors), a termination fee would be payable to the Adviser equal to two times the sum of the average annual base management fee and incentive fee earned by the Adviser during the 24-month period prior to such termination. A termination fee is also payable if the Adviser terminates the Advisory Agreement after we have defaulted and applicable cure periods have expired. The Advisory Agreement may also be terminated for cause by us (with 30 days’ prior written notice and the vote of at least two-thirds of our independent directors), with no termination fee payable. Cause is defined in the agreement to include if the Adviser breaches any material provisions thereof, the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Adviser, dissolution of the Adviser and fraud or misappropriation of funds.

Administration Agreement

Under the terms of the Administration Agreement, we pay separately for our allocable portion of the Administrator’s overhead expenses in performing its obligations to us including, but not limited to, rent and our allocable portion of the salaries and benefits expenses of our Administrator’s employees, including, but not limited to, our chief financial officer, treasurer, chief compliance officer, general counsel and secretary, Michael LiCalsi (who also serves as our Administrator’s president, general counsel and secretary), and their respective staffs. Our allocable portion of the Administrator’s expenses are generally derived by multiplying our Administrator’s total expenses by the approximate percentage of time the Administrator’s employees perform services for us in relation to their time spent performing services for all companies serviced by our Administrator under contractual agreements. We believe this approach helps approximate fees paid by us to actual services performed by the Administrator for us. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded an administration fee of $0.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded an administration fee of $0.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively.

Gladstone Securities

Gladstone Securities, LLC (“Gladstone Securities”), is a privately held broker dealer registered with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority and insured by the Securities Investor Protection Corporation. Gladstone Securities is an affiliate of ours, as its parent company is owned and controlled by David Gladstone, our chairman and chief executive officer. Mr. Gladstone also serves on the board of managers of Gladstone Securities.

Mortgage Financing Arrangement Agreement

We entered into an agreement with Gladstone Securities, effective June 18, 2013, for it to act as our non-exclusive agent to assist us with arranging mortgage financing for properties we own. In connection with this engagement, Gladstone Securities will, from time to time, continue to solicit the interest of various commercial real estate lenders or recommend to us third party lenders offering credit products or packages that are responsive to our needs. We pay Gladstone Securities a financing fee in connection with the services it provides to us for securing mortgage financing on any of our properties. The amount of these financing fees, which are payable upon closing of the financing, are based on a percentage of the amount of the mortgage, generally ranging from 0.15% to a maximum of 1.0% of the mortgage obtained. The amount of the financing fees may be reduced or eliminated, as determined by us and Gladstone Securities, after taking into consideration various factors, including, but not limited to, the involvement of any third-party brokers and market conditions. We did not pay financing fees to Gladstone Securities during the three months ended June 30, 2020, but we paid financing fees to Gladstone Securities of $0.09 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020, which are included in mortgage notes payable, net, in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, or 0.25%, of the mortgage principal secured and/or extended. We paid financing fess to Gladstone Securities of $0.08 million and $0.10 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, which are included in mortgage notes payable, net, in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, or 0.21% and 0.20%, respectively, of the mortgage principal secured and/or extended. Our Board of Directors renewed the agreement for an additional year, through August 31, 2021, at its July 2020 meeting.

Dealer Manager Agreement

On February 20, 2020 we entered into a dealer manager agreement (the “Dealer Manager Agreement”), with Gladstone Securities (the “Dealer Manager”), whereby the Dealer Manager will serve as our exclusive dealer manager in connection with our offering (the “Offering”) of up to (i) 20,000,000 shares of 6.00% Series F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series F Preferred Stock”), on a “reasonable best efforts” basis (the “Primary Offering”), and (ii) 6,000,000 shares of Series F Preferred Stock pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan (the “DRIP”) to those holders of the Series F Preferred Stock who participate in such DRIP. The Series F Preferred Stock is registered with the SEC pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-236143), as the same may be amended and/or supplemented (the “Registration Statement”), under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and will be offered and sold pursuant to a prospectus supplement, dated February 20, 2020, and a base prospectus dated February 11, 2020 relating to the Registration Statement (the “Prospectus”).

Under the Dealer Manager Agreement, the Dealer Manager will provide certain sales, promotional and marketing services to the Company in connection with the Offering, and the Company will pay the Dealer Manager (i) selling commissions of 6.0% of the gross proceeds from sales of Series F Preferred Stock in the Primary Offering (the “Selling Commissions”), and (ii) a dealer manager fee of 3.0% of the gross proceeds from sales of Series F Preferred Stock in the Primary Offering (the “Dealer Manager Fee”). No Selling Commissions or Dealer Manager Fee shall be paid with respect to Shares sold pursuant to the DRIP. The Dealer Manager may, in its sole discretion, reallow a portion of the Dealer Manager Fee to participating broker-dealers in support of the Offering.

3. (Loss) Earnings Per Share of Common Stock

The following tables set forth the computation of basic and diluted (loss) earnings per share of common stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. The OP Units held by Non-controlling OP Unitholders (which may be redeemed for shares of common stock) have been excluded from the diluted (loss) earnings per share calculations, as there would be no effect on the amounts since the Non-controlling OP Unitholders’ share of (loss) income would also be added back to net (loss) income. Net (loss) income figures are presented net of such non-controlling interests in the (loss) earnings per share calculation.

We computed basic (loss) earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the respective periods. Diluted (loss) earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 reflects additional shares of common stock related to our convertible senior common stock (the “Senior Common Stock”), if the effect would be dilutive, that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential shares of common stock had been issued, as well as an adjustment to net (loss) income (attributable) available to common stockholders as applicable to common stockholders that would result from their assumed issuance (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts).

We account for all of our real estate leasing arrangements as operating leases. A majority of our leases are subject to fixed rental increases, but a small subset of our lease portfolio has variable lease payments that are driven by the consumer price index. Many of our tenants have renewal options in their respective leases, but we seldom include option periods in the determination of lease term, as we generally will not enter into leasing arrangements with bargain renewal options. A small number of tenants have termination options.

Future minimum lease payments from tenants under non-cancelable leases, excluding tenant reimbursement of expenses as of December 31, 2019, for each of the five succeeding fiscal years and thereafter, is as follows (dollars in thousands):

5. Real Estate Dispositions, Held for Sale and Impairment Charges

Real Estate Dispositions

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we continued to execute our capital recycling program, whereby we sell properties outside of our core markets and redeploy proceeds to either fund property acquisitions in our target secondary growth markets, or repay outstanding debt. We expect to continue to execute our capital recycling plan and sell non-core properties as reasonable disposition opportunities become available. On February 20, 2020, we sold one non-core property, located in Charlotte, North Carolina, which is detailed in the table below (dollars in thousands):

Our disposition during the six months ended June 30, 2020 was not classified as a discontinued operation because it did not represent a strategic shift in operations, nor will it have a major effect on our operations and financial results. Accordingly, the operating results of this property is included within continuing operations for all periods reported.

Real Estate Held for Sale

As of June 30, 2020, we had two properties classified as held for sale, located in Maple Heights, Ohio and Boston Heights, Ohio. We consider these assets to be non-core to our long term strategy. As of June 30, 2020, our Maple Heights, Ohio property was under contract to sell, and we had an executed letter of intent for our Boston Heights, Ohio property. At December 31, 2019, we had one property classified as held for sale, located in Charlotte, North Carolina. This property was sold during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Impairment Charges

We evaluated our portfolio for triggering events to determine if any of our held and used assets were impaired during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and identified one held and used asset, located in Blaine, Minnesota, which was impaired by $1.7 million. In performing our impairment testing, the undiscounted cash flows for this asset were below the carrying value, so we impaired the asset and wrote it down to its fair value, which we determined using third party purchase offers. We did not recognize an impairment charge during the six months ended June 30, 2019.

We continue to evaluate our properties on a quarterly basis for changes that could create the need to record impairment. Future impairment losses may result, and could be significant, should market conditions deteriorate in the markets in which we hold our assets or should we be unable to secure leases at terms that are favorable to us, which could impact the estimated cash flow of our properties over the period in which we plan to hold our properties. Additionally, changes in management’s decisions to either own and lease long-term or sell a particular asset will have an impact on this analysis.

Mortgage Notes Payable

As of June 30, 2020, we had 55 mortgage notes payable, collateralized by a total of 70 properties with a net book value of $710.3 million. We have limited recourse liabilities that could result from any one or more of the following circumstances: a borrower voluntarily filing for bankruptcy, improper conveyance of a property, fraud or material misrepresentation, misapplication or misappropriation of rents, security deposits, insurance proceeds or condemnation proceeds, or physical waste or damage to the property resulting from a borrower’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. We have full recourse for $4.8 million of the mortgages notes payable, net, or 1.0% of the outstanding balance. We will also indemnify lenders against claims resulting from the presence of hazardous substances or activity involving hazardous substances in violation of environmental laws on a property. 

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we repaid three mortgages, collateralized by four properties, which are summarized in the table below (dollars in thousands):

On March 9, 2020, we issued $17.5 million of floating rate debt swapped to fixed rate debt of 2.8% in connection with the one property acquisition.

We did not make any payments for deferred financing costs during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and made payments of $0.4 million for deferred financing costs during the six months ended June 30, 2020, and $0.4 million and $0.7 million for deferred financing costs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively.

We believe we will be able to address all mortgage notes payable maturing over the next 12 months through a combination of refinancing our existing indebtedness, cash from operations, proceeds from one or more equity offerings and availability on our Credit Facility.

Interest Rate Cap and Interest Rate Swap Agreements

We have entered into interest rate cap agreements that cap the interest rate on certain of our variable-rate debt and we have assumed or entered into interest rate swap agreements in which we hedged our exposure to variable interest rates by agreeing to pay fixed interest rates to our respective counterparty. We have adopted the fair value measurement provisions for our financial instruments recorded at fair value. The fair value guidance establishes a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. Generally, we will estimate the fair value of our interest rate caps and interest rate swaps, in the absence of observable market data, using estimates of value including estimated remaining life, counterparty credit risk, current market yield and interest rate spreads of similar securities as of the measurement date. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, our interest rate cap agreements and interest rate swaps were valued using Level 2 inputs.

The fair value of the interest rate cap agreements is recorded in other assets on our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. We record changes in the fair value of the interest rate cap agreements quarterly based on the current market valuations at quarter end. If the interest rate cap qualifies for hedge accounting, the change in the estimated fair value is recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income to the extent that it is effective, with any ineffective portion recorded to interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. If the interest rate cap does not qualify for hedge accounting, or if it is determined the hedge is ineffective, any change in the fair value is recognized in interest expense in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. The following table summarizes the interest rate caps at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 (dollars in thousands):

We have entered into various interest rate cap agreements on variable rate debt with LIBOR caps ranging from 1.50% to 3.00%.

We have assumed or entered into interest rate swap agreements in connection with certain of our acquisitions or mortgage financings, whereby we will pay our counterparty a fixed rate interest rate on a monthly basis, and receive payments from our counterparty equivalent to the stipulated floating rate. The fair values of our interest rate swap agreements are recorded in other assets or other liabilities on our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. We have designated our interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges, and we record changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap agreement to accumulated other comprehensive income on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. We record changes in fair value on a quarterly basis, using current market valuations at quarter end.

The fair value of all mortgage notes payable outstanding as of June 30, 2020 was $481.2 million, as compared to the carrying value stated above of $469.4 million. The fair value is calculated based on a discounted cash flow analysis, using management’s estimate of market interest rates on long-term debt with comparable terms and loan to value ratios. The fair value was calculated using Level 3 inputs of the hierarchy established by ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.”

Credit Facility

On July 2, 2019, we amended, extended and upsized our Credit Facility, expanding the Term Loan from $75.0 million to $160.0 million, and increasing the Revolver from $85.0 million to $100.0 million. The Term Loan has a new five-year term, with a maturity date of July 2, 2024, and the Revolver has a new four-year term, with a maturity date of July 2, 2023. The interest rate for the Credit Facility was reduced by 10 basis points at each of the leverage tiers. We entered into multiple interest rate cap agreements on the amended Term Loan, which cap LIBOR ranging from 2.50% to 2.75%, to hedge our exposure to variable interest rates. We used the net proceeds derived from the amended Credit Facility to repay all previously existing borrowings under the Revolver. We incurred fees of approximately $1.3 million in connection with the Credit Facility amendment. The bank syndicate is now comprised of KeyBank, Fifth Third Bank, U.S. Bank National Association, The Huntington National Bank, Goldman Sachs Bank USA, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association.

As of June 30, 2020, there was $203.1 million outstanding under our Credit Facility, at a weighted average interest rate of approximately 1.77%, and $13.5 million outstanding under letters of credit, at a weighted average interest rate of 1.65%. As of June 30, 2020, the maximum additional amount we could draw under the Credit Facility was $19.5 million. We were in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Facility as of June 30, 2020.

The amount outstanding under the Credit Facility approximates fair value as of June 30, 2020.

Recent Activity

Common Stock ATM Program

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we sold 1.3 million shares of common stock, raising $28.4 million in net proceeds under our At-the-Market Equity Offering Sales Agreements with sales agents Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated (“Baird”), Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”), Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated (“Stifel”), BTIG, LLC, and Fifth Third Securities, Inc. (“Fifth Third”), pursuant to which we may sell shares of our common stock in an aggregate offering price of up to $250.0 million (the “Common Stock ATM Program”). As of June 30, 2020, we had remaining capacity to sell up to $208.7 million of common stock under the Common Stock ATM Program.

Mezzanine Equity

Our 7.00% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (“Series D Preferred Stock”) and 6.625% Series E Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (“Series E Preferred Stock”) are classified as mezzanine equity on our condensed consolidated balance sheets because both are redeemable at the option of the shareholder upon a change of control of greater than 50% in accordance with ASC 480-10-S99 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” which requires mezzanine equity classification for preferred stock issuances with redemption features which are outside of the control of the issuer. A change in control of our company, outside of our control, is only possible if a tender offer is accepted by over 90% of our shareholders. All other change in control situations would require input from our Board of Directors. In addition, our Series E Preferred Stock is redeemable at the option of the shareholder in the event a delisting event occurs. We will periodically evaluate the likelihood that a delisting event or change of control of greater than 50% will take place, and if we deem this probable, we would adjust the Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock presented in mezzanine equity to their redemption value, with the offset to gain (loss) on extinguishment. We currently believe the likelihood of a change of control greater than 50%, or a delisting event, is remote.

We have an At-the-Market Equity Offering Sales Agreement with sales agents Baird, Goldman Sachs, Stifel, Fifth Third, and U.S. Bancorp Investments, Inc., pursuant to which we may, from time to time, offer to sell shares of our Series E Preferred Stock in an aggregate offering price of up to $100.0 million. We sold 86,564 shares of our Series E Preferred Stock, raising $1.9 million in net proceeds under the agreement during the six months ended June 30, 2020. As of June 30, 2020, we had remaining capacity to sell up to $98.0 million of Series E Preferred Stock under the Series E Preferred Stock Sales Agreement. We do not have an active At-the-Market program for our Series D Preferred Stock.

Universal Shelf Registration Statements

On January 11, 2019, we filed a universal registration statement on Form S-3, File No. 333-229209, and an amendment thereto on Form S-3/A on January 24, 2019 (collectively referred to as the “2019 Universal Shelf”). The 2019 Universal Shelf became effective on February 13, 2019 and replaced our prior universal shelf registration statement. The 2019 Universal Shelf allows us to issue up to $500.0 million of securities. As of June 30, 2020, we had the ability to issue up to $407.2 million under the 2019 Universal Shelf.

On January 29, 2020, we filed an additional universal registration statement on Form S-3, File No. 333-236143 (the “2020 Universal Shelf”). The 2020 Universal Shelf was declared effective on February 11, 2020 and is in addition to the 2019 Universal Shelf. The 2020 Universal Shelf allows us to issue up to an additional $800.0 million of securities. Of the $800.0 million of available capacity under our 2020 Universal Shelf, approximately $636.5 million is reserved for the sale of our Series F Preferred Stock. As of June 30, 2020, we had the ability to issue up to $800.0 million of securities under the 2020 universal shelf, as we have not sold any securities under the 2020 Universal Shelf.

Series F Preferred Stock

On February 20, 2020, the Company filed with the Maryland Department of Assessments and Taxation Articles Supplementary (i) setting forth the rights, preferences and terms of the Series F Preferred Stock and (ii) reclassifying and designating 26,000,000 shares of the Company’s authorized and unissued shares of common stock as shares of Series F Preferred Stock. The reclassification decreased the number of shares classified as common stock from 86,290,000 shares immediately prior to the reclassification to 60,290,000 shares immediately after the reclassification. Currently, there are no shares of the Series F Preferred Stock outstanding.

Amendment to Operating Partnership Agreement

In connection with the authorization of the Series F Preferred Stock in February of 2020, the Operating Partnership controlled by the Company through its ownership of GCLP Business Trust II, the general partner of the Operating Partnership, adopted the Second Amendment to its Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership, including Exhibit SFP thereto (collectively, the “Amendment”), as amended from time to time, establishing the rights, privileges and preferences of 6.00% Series F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units, a newly-designated class of limited partnership interests (the “Series F Preferred Units”). The Amendment provides for the Operating Partnership’s establishment and issuance of an equal number of Series F Preferred Units as are issued shares of Series F Preferred Stock by the Company in connection with the Offering upon the Company’s contribution to the Operating Partnership of the net proceeds of the Offering. Generally, the Series F Preferred Units provided for under the Amendment have preferences, distribution rights and other provisions substantially equivalent to those of the Series F Preferred Stock.

COVID-19

As of July 27, 2020, we have collected approximately 99% of all outstanding July cash base rent obligations. In April 2020, we granted rent deferrals to three tenants representing approximately 2% of total portfolio rents. The agreements with these tenants include current partial payment in exchange for rent deferrals of varying terms with deferred amounts to be paid by the respective tenant back to us, for the period starting in July 2020 and ending through March 2021. We have received and may receive additional rent modification requests in future periods from our tenants, but we have not granted any additional rent deferrals at this time. We are unable to quantify the economic impact of these potential requests at this time.

Equity Activity

Subsequent to June 30, 2020 and through July 27, 2020, we raised $1.6 million in net proceeds from the sale of 85,000 shares of Common Stock under our Common Stock ATM Program and $1.5 million in net proceeds from the sale of 67,249 shares of Series E Preferred Stock under our Series E Preferred ATM Program.

Leasing activity

On July 8, 2020, the tenant in our Richmond, Virginia property renewed their lease for an additional six years, with a new maturity date of September 30, 2026.

Sale activity

On July 1, 2020, we sold our Maple Heights, Ohio property for $11.4 million. We recognized a gain on sale, net, of $1.2 million.

Financing activity

On July 1, 2020, we repaid the $4.0 million variable rate debt on our Maple Heights, Ohio property.

On July 14, 2020, the Company amended and restated the Advisory Agreement by entering into the Sixth Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement between the Company and the Adviser (the “Amended Agreement”). The Company’s entrance into the Amended Agreement was approved by its board of directors, including, specifically, unanimously by its independent directors. The Amended Agreement revised and replaced the previous calculation of the Base Management Fee, which was based on Total Equity, with a calculation based on Gross Tangible Real Estate. The revised Base Management Fee will be payable quarterly in arrears and shall be calculated at an annual rate of 0.425% (0.10625% per quarter) of the prior calendar quarter’s “Gross Tangible Real Estate,” defined in the Amended Agreement as the current gross value of the Company’s property portfolio (meaning the aggregate of each property’s original acquisition price plus the cost of any subsequent capital improvements thereon). The calculation of the other fees in the Amended Agreement remain unchanged. The revised Base Management Fee calculation will begin with the fee calculations for the quarter ending September 30, 2020.

General

We are an externally-advised real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that was incorporated under the General Corporation Law of the State of Maryland on February 14, 2003. We focus on acquiring, owning, and managing primarily office and industrial properties. On a selective basis, we may make long term industrial and office mortgage loans; however, we do not have any mortgage loans currently outstanding. Our properties are geographically diversified and our tenants cover a broad cross section of business sectors and range in size from small to very large private and public companies. We actively communicate with buyout funds, real estate brokers and other third parties to locate properties for potential acquisition or to provide mortgage financing in an effort to build our portfolio. We target secondary growth markets that possess favorable economic growth trends, diversified industries, and growing population and employment.

We have historically entered into, and intend in the future to enter into, purchase agreements primarily for real estate having net leases with remaining terms of approximately 7 to 15 years and built in rental rate increases. Under a net lease, the tenant is required to pay most or all operating, maintenance, repair and insurance costs and real estate taxes with respect to the leased property.

All references to annualized generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) rent are rents that each tenant pays in accordance with the terms of its respective lease reported evenly over the non-cancelable term of the lease.

As of July 27, 2020:
 
we owned 121 properties totaling 14.7 million square feet in 28 states;
our occupancy rate was 97.2%;
the weighted average remaining term of our mortgage debt was 4.8 years and the weighted average interest rate was 4.29%; and
the average remaining lease term of the portfolio was 7.5 years.

Business Environment

In March 2020, the World Health Organization characterized COVID-19 as a pandemic, and widespread infection continues in the United States and many parts of the world. The rapid spread of the coronavirus identified as COVID-19 resulted in authorities throughout the United States and the world implementing widespread measures attempting to contain the spread and impact of COVID-19, such as travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter in place orders, the promotion of social distancing and limitations on business activity, including business closures. These measures and the pandemic have caused a significant national and global economic downturn, disrupted business operations, including those of our tenants, significantly increased unemployment and underemployment levels, and are expected to have an adverse effect on both industrial and office demand for space in the short term. Interest rates have been volatile and although interest rates are still low by historical standards (and in some cases have been reduced to help curb the impact of COVID-19), lenders have varied on their required spreads over the last several quarters. Investment sales volume across all product types in recent months is lower year over year, as compared to 2019 as a direct result of COVID-19. After completing the 11th year of the current cycle, some national research firms had been estimating that both pricing and investment sales volume would be peaking and the national economy would be slowing in the near term, prior to the rapid spread of COVID-19. Global recessionary conditions are currently expected for the remainder of 2020 as a direct result of the COVID-19 pandemic, although the actual impact and duration are unknown. See “Impact of COVID-19 on Our Business” below for the impact on the COVID-19 pandemic on our business.

From a more macro-economic perspective, there continues to be significant uncertainties associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, including with respect to the severity of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, actions that may be taken by governmental authorities and private businesses to attempt to contain the COVID-19 outbreak or to mitigate its impact, the extent and duration of social distancing and the adoption of shelter-in-place orders, or reversal of reopening orders, and the ongoing impact of COVID-19 on business and economic activity. Much of the United States economy is now in the process of re-opening, but at the same time the COVID-19 pandemic is intensifying in many areas of the country.

Impact of COVID-19 on Our Business

The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may impact our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, funds from operations or prospects will depend on numerous evolving factors that we are not be able to predict at this time, including the nature, duration and scope of the pandemic; governmental, business and individuals’ actions that have been and continue to be taken in response to the pandemic; the impact on economic activity from the pandemic (such as the effect on market rental rates and commercial real estate values) and actions taken in response; the effect on our tenants and their businesses; the ability of our tenants to make their rental payments, any closures of our tenants’ properties, our ability to secure debt financing, service future debt obligations or pay distributions to our stockholders. Any of these events could materially adversely impact our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, funds from operations or prospects.

As of July 27, 2020, we have collected approximately 99% of all July cash base rent obligations. In April 2020, we granted rent deferrals to three tenants representing approximately 2% of total portfolio rents. The agreements with these tenants include current partial payment in exchange for rent deferrals of varying terms with deferred amounts to be paid by the respective tenant back to us, for the period starting in July 2020 and ending through March 2021. In connection with one of the rent deferrals, we were able to obtain short term mortgage payment relief from our lender on the loan associated with those properties. We collected all cash base rent obligations during the first half of 2020 that were not subject to rent deferral agreements. We may pursue additional loan relief agreements in the future. We have received and may receive additional rent modification requests in future periods from our tenants. However, we are unable to quantify the outcomes of the negotiation of relief packages, the success of any tenant’s financial prospects or the amount of relief requests that we will ultimately receive or grant. We believe that we have a diverse tenant base, and specifically, we do not have significant exposure to tenants in the retail, hospitality, airlines, and oil and gas industries. These industries, among certain others, have generally been severely impacted by the COVID-19. Additionally, our properties are located in 28 states, which we believe mitigates our exposure to economic issues, including as a result of COVID-19, in any one geographic market or area.

We believe we currently have adequate liquidity in the near term, and we believe the availability on our Credit Facility is sufficient to cover all near term debt obligations and operating expenses. We are in compliance with all of our debt covenants, and we amended our Credit Facility within the past twelve months to increase our borrowing capacity. We have had numerous conversations with lenders and do not believe there will be a credit freeze in the near term. We continue to monitor our portfolio and intend to maintain a reasonably conservative liquidity position for the foreseeable future.


28


We will continue to actively monitor the situation and may take further actions that alter our business operations as may be required by federal, state or local authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of our personnel, tenants and stockholders. While we are unable to determine or predict the nature, duration or scope of the overall impact the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, funds from operations or prospects, we believe that it is important to share where we stand today, how our response to COVID-19 is progressing and how our operations and financial condition may change as the fight against COVID-19 progresses.

Other Business Environment Considerations

The long-term impact of tax reform in the U.S. also continues to be unknown at this time, although the lowering of the corporate tax rate is generally expected to be beneficial. Finally, the continuing uncertainty surrounding the ability of the federal government to address its fiscal condition in both the near and long term, particularly with the recent fiscal stimulus as well as other geo-political issues relating to the global economic slowdown has increased domestic and global instability. These developments could cause interest rates and borrowing costs to be volatile, which may adversely affect our ability to access both the equity and debt markets and could have an adverse impact on our tenants as well.

All of our variable rate debt is based upon the one month London Inter-bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), although LIBOR is currently anticipated to be phased out during late 2021. LIBOR is expected to transition to a new standard rate, the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), which will incorporate repo data collected from multiple data sets. The intent is to adjust the SOFR to minimize differences between the interest that a borrower would be paying using LIBOR versus what it will be paying using SOFR. We are currently monitoring the transition, as we cannot assess whether SOFR will become a standard rate for variable rate debt. Any further changes or reforms to the determination or supervision of LIBOR may result in a sudden or prolonged increase or decrease in reported LIBOR, which could have an adverse impact on the market for LIBOR-based debt, or the value of our portfolio of LIBOR-indexed, floating rate debt.

We continue to focus on re-leasing vacant space, renewing upcoming lease expirations, re-financing upcoming loan maturities, and acquiring additional properties with associated long-term leases. Currently, we have three partially vacant buildings and three fully vacant buildings.

We have two leases expiring during the remainder of 2020, which account for 3.9% of lease revenue recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2020, 11 leases expiring in 2021, which account for 5.1% of lease revenue recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2020, and eight leases expiring in 2022, which account for 6.2% of lease revenue recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Our available vacant space at June 30, 2020 represents 4.5% of our total square footage and the annual carrying costs on the vacant space, including real estate taxes and property operating expenses, are approximately $1.7 million. We continue to actively seek new tenants for these properties.

Our ability to make new investments is highly dependent upon our ability to procure financing. Our principal sources of financing generally include the issuance of equity securities, long-term mortgage loans secured by properties, borrowings under our $100.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility (“Revolver”), with KeyBank National Association (serving as a revolving lender, a letter of credit issuer and an administrative agent), which matures in July 2023, and our $160.0 million term loan facility (“Term Loan”), which matures in July 2024. We refer to the Revolver and Term Loan collectively herein as the Credit Facility. While lenders’ credit standards have tightened, we continue to look to national and regional banks, insurance companies and non-bank lenders, in addition to the collateralized mortgage backed securities market, (the “CMBS market”), to issue mortgages to finance our real estate activities.

2020 Equity Activities

Common Stock ATM Program

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we sold 1.3 million shares of common stock, raising $28.4 million in net proceeds under our At-the-Market Equity Offering Sales Agreements with sales agents Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated (“Baird”), Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”), Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated (“Stifel”), BTIG, LLC, and Fifth Third Securities, Inc. (“Fifth Third”), pursuant to which we may sell shares of our common stock in an aggregate offering price of up to $250.0 million (the “Common Stock ATM Program”).

Preferred ATM Programs

We have an At-the-Market Equity Offering Sales Agreement (the “Series E Preferred Stock Sales Agreement”), with sales agents Baird, Goldman Sachs, Stifel, Fifth Third, and U.S. Bancorp Investments, Inc., pursuant to which we may, from time to time, offer to sell shares of our Series E Preferred Stock in an aggregate offering price of up to $100.0 million. We sold 86,564 shares of our Series E Preferred Stock, raising $1.9 million in net proceeds pursuant to the Series E Preferred Stock Sales Agreement during the six months ended June 30, 2020. As of June 30, 2020, we had remaining capacity to sell up to $98.0 million of Series E Preferred Stock under the Series E Preferred Stock Sales Agreement. We do not have an active At-the-Market program for our Series D Preferred Stock.

Universal Shelf Registration Statements

On January 11, 2019, we filed a universal registration statement on Form S-3, File No. 333-229209, and an amendment thereto on Form S-3/A on January 24, 2019 (collectively referred to as the “2019 Universal Shelf”). The 2019 Universal Shelf became effective on February 13, 2019 and replaced our prior universal shelf registration statement. The 2019 Universal Shelf allows us to issue up to $500.0 million of securities. As of June 30, 2020, we had the ability to issue up to $407.2 million under the 2019 Universal Shelf.

31



On January 29, 2020, we filed an additional universal registration statement on Form S-3, File No. 333-236143 (the “2020 Universal Shelf”). The 2020 Universal Shelf was declared effective on February 11, 2020 and is in addition to the 2019 Universal Shelf. The 2020 Universal Shelf allows us to issue up to an additional $800.0 million of securities. Of the $800.0 million of available capacity under our 2020 Universal Shelf, approximately $636.5 million is reserved for the sale of our 6.00% Series F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series F Preferred Stock”). As of June 30, 2020, we had the ability to issue up to $800.0 million of securities under the 2020 Universal Shelf, as we have not sold any securities under the 2020 Universal Shelf.

Series F Preferred Stock

On February 20, 2020, we filed with the Maryland Department of Assessments and Taxation Articles Supplementary (i) setting forth the rights, preferences and terms of the Series F Preferred Stock and (ii) reclassifying and designating 26,000,000 shares of the Company’s authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock as shares of Series F Preferred Stock. The reclassification decreased the number of shares classified as Common Stock from 86,290,000 shares immediately prior to the reclassification to 60,290,000 shares immediately after the reclassification. Currently, there are no shares of the Series F Preferred Stock outstanding.

Amendment to Operating Partnership Agreement

In connection with the authorization of the Series F Preferred Stock, Gladstone Commercial Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), a Delaware limited partnership controlled by the Company through its ownership of GCLP Business Trust II, the general partner of the Operating Partnership, adopted the Second Amendment to its Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership, including Exhibit SFP thereto (collectively, the “Amendment”), as amended from time to time, establishing the rights, privileges and preferences of 6.00% Series F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units, a newly-designated class of limited partnership interests (the “Series F Preferred Units”). The Amendment provides for the Operating Partnership’s establishment and issuance of an equal number of Series F Preferred Units as are issued shares of Series F Preferred Stock by the Company in connection with the Offering upon the Company’s contribution to the Operating Partnership of the net proceeds of the Offering. Generally, the Series F Preferred Units provided for under the Amendment have preferences, distribution rights and other provisions substantially equivalent to those of the Series F Preferred Stock.

Amendment to the Advisory Agreement

On July 14, 2020, the Company amended and restated the Advisory Agreement by entering into the Sixth Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement between the Company and the Adviser (the “Amended Agreement”). The Company’s entrance into the Amended Agreement was approved by its board of directors, including, specifically, unanimously by its independent directors. The Amended Agreement revised and replaced the previous calculation of the Base Management Fee, which was based on Total Equity, with a calculation based on Gross Tangible Real Estate. The revised Base Management Fee will be payable quarterly in arrears and shall be calculated at an annual rate of 0.425% (0.10625% per quarter) of the prior calendar quarter’s “Gross Tangible Real Estate,” defined in the Amended Agreement as the current gross value of the Company’s property portfolio (meaning the aggregate of each property’s original acquisition price plus the cost of any subsequent capital improvements thereon). The calculation of the other fees in the Amended Agreement remain unchanged. The revised Base Management Fee calculation will begin with the fee calculations for the quarter ending September 30, 2020.

Diversity of Our Portfolio

Gladstone Management Corporation, a Delaware corporation (our “Adviser”) seeks to diversify our portfolio to avoid dependence on any one particular tenant, industry or geographic market. By diversifying our portfolio, our Adviser intends to reduce the adverse effect on our portfolio of a single under-performing investment or a downturn in any particular industry or geographic market. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, our largest tenant comprised only 3.6% of total lease revenue. The table below reflects the breakdown of our total lease revenue by tenant industry classification for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 (dollars in thousands):

Our Adviser and Administrator

Our Adviser is led by a management team with extensive experience purchasing real estate and originating mortgage loans. Our Adviser and Gladstone Administration, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (our “Administrator”) are controlled by Mr. David Gladstone, who is also our chairman and chief executive officer. Mr. Gladstone also serves as the chairman and chief executive officer of both our Adviser and Administrator, as well as president and chief investment officer of our Adviser. Mr. Terry Lee Brubaker, our vice chairman and chief operating officer, is also the vice chairman and chief operating officer of our Adviser and Administrator and assistant secretary of our Adviser. Mr. Robert Cutlip, our president, also serves as the executive vice president of commercial and industrial real estate of our Adviser. Our Administrator employs our chief financial officer, treasurer, chief compliance officer, general counsel and secretary, Michael LiCalsi (who also serves as our Administrator’s president, general counsel, and secretary, as well as executive vice president of administration of our Adviser) and their respective staffs.


34


Our Adviser and Administrator also provide investment advisory and administrative services, respectively, to certain of our affiliates, including, but not limited to, Gladstone Capital Corporation and Gladstone Investment Corporation, both publicly-traded business development companies, as well as Gladstone Land Corporation, a publicly-traded REIT that primarily invests in farmland. With the exception of Mr. Michael Sodo, our chief financial officer, Mr. Jay Beckhorn, our treasurer, and Mr. Robert Cutlip, our president, all of our executive officers and all of our directors serve as either directors or executive officers, or both, of Gladstone Capital Corporation and Gladstone Investment Corporation. In addition, with the exception of Mr. Cutlip and Mr. Sodo, all of our executive officers and all of our directors, serve as either directors or executive officers, or both, of Gladstone Land Corporation. Mr. Cutlip and Mr. Sodo do not put forth any material efforts in assisting affiliated companies. In the future, our Adviser may provide investment advisory services to other companies, both public and private.

Advisory and Administration Agreements

We are externally managed pursuant to contractual arrangements with our Adviser and our Administrator, which collectively employ all of our personnel and pay their salaries, benefits and other general expenses directly. Both our Adviser and Administrator are affiliates of ours, as their parent company is owned and controlled by Mr. David Gladstone, our chairman and chief executive officer. Two of our executive officers, Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Terry Brubaker (our vice chairman and chief operating officer) serve as directors and executive officers of our Adviser and our Administrator. Mr. Michael LiCalsi, our general counsel and secretary, also serves as our Administrator’s president, general counsel and secretary, as well as executive vice president of administration of our Adviser. We have entered into an advisory agreement with our Adviser, as amended from time to time (the “Advisory Agreement”), and an administration agreement with our Administrator (the “Administration Agreement”). The services and fees under the Advisory Agreement and Administration Agreement are described below.

Under the terms of the Advisory Agreement, we are responsible for all expenses incurred for our direct benefit. Examples of these expenses include legal, accounting, interest, directors’ and officers’ insurance, stock transfer services, stockholder-related fees, consulting and related fees. In addition, we are also responsible for all fees charged by third parties that are directly related to our business, which include real estate brokerage fees, mortgage placement fees, lease-up fees and transaction structuring fees (although we may be able to pass all or some of such fees on to our tenants and borrowers). Our entrance into the Advisory Agreement and each amendment thereto has been approved unanimously by our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors reviews and considers renewing the agreement with our Adviser each July. During its July 2020 meeting, our Board of Directors reviewed and renewed the Advisory Agreement and Administration Agreement for an additional year, through August 31, 2021.

Base Management Fee

On July 14, 2020, the Company amended and restated the Advisory Agreement by entering into the Sixth Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement between the Company and the Adviser (the “Amended Agreement”). The Company’s entrance into the Amended Agreement was approved by its board of directors, including, specifically, unanimously by its independent directors. The Amended Agreement revised and replaced the previous calculation of the Base Management Fee, which was based on Total Equity, with a calculation based on Gross Tangible Real Estate. The revised Base Management Fee will be payable quarterly in arrears and shall be calculated at an annual rate of 0.425% (0.10625% per quarter) of the prior calendar quarter’s “Gross Tangible Real Estate,” defined in the Amended Agreement as the current gross value of the Company’s property portfolio (meaning the aggregate of each property’s original acquisition price plus the cost of any subsequent capital improvements thereon). The calculation of the other fees in the Amended Agreement remain unchanged. The revised Base Management Fee calculation will begin with the fee calculations for the quarter ending September 30, 2020.

Under the Advisory Agreement prior to the July 14, 2020 amendment, the calculation of the annual base management fee equaled 1.5% of our Total Equity, which is our total stockholders’ equity plus total mezzanine equity (before giving effect to the base management fee and incentive fee), adjusted to exclude the effect of any unrealized gains or losses that do not affect realized net income (including impairment charges) and adjusted for any one-time events and certain non-cash items (the later to occur for a given quarter only upon the approval of our Compensation Committee), and adjusted to include OP Units held by Non-controlling OP Unitholders. The fee was calculated and accrued quarterly as 0.375% per quarter of such Total Equity figure. Our Adviser does not charge acquisition or disposition fees when we acquire or dispose of properties as is common in other externally managed REITs; however, our Adviser may earn fee income from our borrowers, tenants or other sources.


35


Incentive Fee

Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, the calculation of the incentive fee rewards the Adviser in circumstances where our quarterly Core FFO (defined at the end of this paragraph), before giving effect to any incentive fee, or pre-incentive fee Core FFO, exceeds 2.0% quarterly, or 8.0% annualized, of adjusted total stockholders’ equity (after giving effect to the base management fee but before giving effect to the incentive fee). We refer to this as the hurdle rate. The Adviser will receive 15.0% of the amount of our pre-incentive fee Core FFO that exceeds the hurdle rate. However, in no event shall the incentive fee for a particular quarter exceed by 15.0% (the cap) the average quarterly incentive fee paid by us for the previous four quarters (excluding quarters for which no incentive fee was paid). Core FFO (as defined in the Advisory Agreement) is GAAP net income (loss) available to common stockholders, excluding the incentive fee, depreciation and amortization, any realized and unrealized gains, losses or other non-cash items recorded in net income (loss) available to common stockholders for the period, and one-time events pursuant to changes in GAAP.

Capital Gain Fee

Under the Advisory Agreement, we will pay to the Adviser a capital gain-based incentive fee that will be calculated and payable in arrears as of the end of each fiscal year (or upon termination of the Advisory Agreement). In determining the capital gain fee, we will calculate aggregate realized capital gains and aggregate realized capital losses for the applicable time period. For this purpose, aggregate realized capital gains and losses, if any, equals the realized gain or loss calculated by the difference between the sales price of the property, less any costs to sell the property and the current gross value of the property (equal to the property’s original acquisition price plus any subsequent non-reimbursed capital improvements) of the disposed property. At the end of the fiscal year, if this number is positive, then the capital gain fee payable for such time period shall equal 15.0% of such amount. No capital gain fee was recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 or 2019.

Termination Fee

The Advisory Agreement includes a termination fee whereby, in the event of our termination of the agreement without cause (with 120 days’ prior written notice and the vote of at least two-thirds of our independent directors), a termination fee would be payable to the Adviser equal to two times the sum of the average annual base management fee and incentive fee earned by the Adviser during the 24-month period prior to such termination. A termination fee is also payable if the Adviser terminates the agreement after the Company has defaulted and applicable cure periods have expired. The agreement may also be terminated for cause by us (with 30 days’ prior written notice and the vote of at least two-thirds of our independent directors), with no termination fee payable. Cause is defined in the agreement to include if the Adviser breaches any material provisions of the agreement, the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Adviser, dissolution of the Adviser and fraud or misappropriation of funds.

Administration Agreement

Under the terms of the Administration Agreement, we pay separately for our allocable portion of our Administrator’s overhead expenses in performing its obligations to us including, but not limited to, rent and our allocable portion of the salaries and benefits expenses of our Administrator’s employees, including, but not limited to, our chief financial officer, treasurer, chief compliance officer, general counsel and secretary, Michael LiCalsi (who also serves as our Administrator’s president, general counsel and secretary), and their respective staffs. Our allocable portion of the Administrator’s expenses are generally derived by multiplying our Administrator’s total expenses by the appropriate percentage of time the Administrator’s employees perform services for us in relation to their time spent performing services for all companies serviced by our Administrator under contractual agreements.

Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make judgments that are subjective in nature to make certain estimates and assumptions. Application of these accounting policies involves the exercise of judgment regarding the use of assumptions as to future uncertainties, and as a result, actual results could materially differ from these estimates. A summary of all of our significant accounting policies is provided in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed by us with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 12, 2020 (our “2019 Form 10-K”). On January 1, 2020, we completed the integration of the accounting records of certain of our triple net leased third-party asset managed properties into our accounting system and paid out of our operating bank accounts. For periods prior to January 1, 2020, we recorded property operating expenses and offsetting lease revenues for these certain triple net leased properties on a net basis. Beginning January 1, 2020, we are recording the property operating expenses and offsetting lease revenues for these triple net leased properties on a gross basis, as we have amended our process whereby we are paying operating expenses on behalf of our tenants and receiving reimbursement, whereas, previously these tenants were paying these expenses directly with limited insight provided to us. There were no other material changes to our critical accounting policies or estimates during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Results of Operations

The weighted average yield on our total portfolio, which was 8.3% and 8.7% as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, is calculated by taking the annualized straight-line rents plus operating expense recoveries, reflected as lease revenue on our condensed consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive income, less property operating expenses, of each acquisition since inception, as a percentage of the acquisition cost plus subsequent capital improvements. The weighted average yield does not account for the interest expense incurred on the mortgages placed on our properties.

Same Store Analysis

For the purposes of the following discussion, same store properties are properties we owned as of January 1, 2019, which have not been subsequently vacated, or disposed of. Acquired and disposed of properties are properties which were acquired, disposed of or classified as held for sale at any point subsequent to December 31, 2018. Properties with vacancy are properties that were fully vacant or had greater than 5.0% vacancy, based on square footage, at any point subsequent to January 1, 2019.

Lease revenues consist of rental income and operating expense recoveries earned from our tenants. Lease revenues from same store properties increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 from the comparable 2019 period, primarily due to increases in rental charges from lease renewals and increased operating expense recoveries from triple net leased properties. Lease revenues increased for acquired and disposed of properties for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, because we acquired 21 properties during and subsequent to June 30, 2019, partially offset by a loss of lease revenues from two properties we sold during and subsequent to the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 pursuant to our capital recycling program. Lease revenues decreased for our properties with vacancy for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 due to increased vacancy in our portfolio.

On January 1, 2020, we completed the integration of the accounting records of certain of our triple net leased third-party asset managed properties into our accounting system and paid out of our operating bank accounts. For periods prior to January 1, 2020, we recorded property operating expenses and offsetting lease revenues for these certain triple net leased properties on a net basis. Beginning January 1, 2020, we are recording the property operating expenses and offsetting lease revenues for these triple net leased properties on a gross basis, as we have amended our process whereby we are paying operating expenses on behalf of our tenants and receiving reimbursement, whereas, previously these tenants were paying these expenses directly with limited insight provided to us. See table below for a reconciliation of lease revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2020, and the comparable 2019 period. Fixed rental payments consist of fixed rental charges that are contractually due us, and variable rental payments consist of operating expense recoveries that we collect to pay for property operating expenses incurred at certain properties. Lease revenues relating to the 2019 reporting period have not been amended.

Operating Expenses 

Depreciation and amortization increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, due to depreciation on capital projects completed subsequent to the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, coupled with depreciation on the 21 properties acquired during and subsequent to the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, partially offset by decreased depreciation on the two properties sold during and subsequent to the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

Property operating expenses consist of franchise taxes, property management fees, insurance, ground lease payments, property maintenance and repair expenses paid on behalf of certain of our properties. The increase in property operating expenses for same store properties for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, is a result of an increase in our property operating expenses at our triple net leased properties. The increase in property operating expenses for acquired and disposed of properties for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, is primarily a result of increased property operating expenses from 21 properties acquired during and subsequent to June 30, 2019, partially offset by a reduction of operating expenses from two properties sold during and subsequent to June 30, 2019. The increase in property operating expenses for properties with vacancy for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, is a result of increased vacancy in our portfolio.

The base management fee paid to the Adviser increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, due to an increase in total equity over the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. The calculation of the base management fee is described in detail above in “Advisory and Administration Agreements.”

The incentive fee paid to the Adviser increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, due to pre-incentive fee Core FFO increasing faster than the hurdle rate. The increase in FFO is a result of an increase in total operating revenues, partially offset by an increase in total operating expenses and interest expense. The calculation of the incentive fee is described in detail above in “Advisory and Administration Agreements.”


41


The administration fee paid to the Administrator decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019, due to our Administrator incurring fewer costs that are allocated to the Company. The administration fee paid to the Administrator increased during the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019, due to our Administrator incurring greater costs that are allocated to the Company. The calculation of the administration fee is described in detail above in “Advisory and Administration Agreements.”

General and administrative expenses decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019, primarily as a result of a decrease in due diligence expenses for potential acquisitions. General and administrative expenses increased for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily as a result of an increase in legal and accounting fees.

We recorded an impairment charge for our Blaine, Minnesota property during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, when our held and used impairment testing determined that the carrying value of this property was unrecoverable. As a result, we recorded an impairment charge to write down the carrying value to fair market value. We did not record an impairment charge during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

Other Income and Expenses

Interest expense decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. This decrease was primarily a result of a decrease in interest rates on our LIBOR based variable rate debt, partially offset by increased interest expense due to higher mortgage borrowings and higher Credit Facility balances outstanding.

Loss on sale of real estate, net, for the six months ended June 30, 2020 is attributable to one non-core office asset located in Charlotte, North Carolina being sold during the period. Gain on sale of real estate, net, for the six months ended June 30, 2019 is attributable to one non-core office asset located in Maitland, Florida being sold during the period.

Net (Loss) Income (Attributable) Available to Common Stockholders and Non-controlling OP Unitholders

Net loss attributable to common stockholders and Non-controlling OP Unitholders increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to the increase in depreciation and amortization expense due to asset acquisition activity subsequent to June 30, 2019, coupled with the impairment charge recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, partially offset by an increase in lease revenues due to asset acquisition activity subsequent to June 30, 2019, coupled with a decrease in interest expense due to a decrease in LIBOR on our variable rate debt.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Our sources of liquidity include cash flows from operations, cash and cash equivalents, borrowings under our Revolver and issuing additional equity securities. Our available liquidity as of June 30, 2020, was $29.1 million, consisting of approximately $9.6 million in cash and cash equivalents and available borrowing capacity of $19.5 million under our Credit Facility. Our available borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility increased to $36.0 million as of July 27, 2020.

Future Capital Needs

We actively seek conservative investments that are likely to produce income to pay distributions to our stockholders. We intend to use the proceeds received from future equity raised and debt capital borrowed to continue to invest in industrial and office real property, make mortgage loans, or pay down outstanding borrowings under our Revolver. Accordingly, to ensure that we are able to effectively execute our business strategy, we routinely review our liquidity requirements and continually evaluate all potential sources of liquidity. Our short-term liquidity needs include proceeds necessary to fund our distributions to stockholders, pay the debt service costs on our existing long-term mortgages, refinancing maturing debt and fund our current operating costs. Our long-term liquidity needs include proceeds necessary to grow and maintain our portfolio of investments.


42


We believe that our available liquidity is sufficient to fund our distributions to stockholders, pay the debt service costs on our existing long-term mortgages and fund our current operating costs in the near term. We also believe we will be able to refinance our mortgage debt as it matures. Additionally, to satisfy our short-term obligations, we may request credits to our management fees that are issued from our Adviser, although our Adviser is under no obligation to provide any such credits, either in whole or in part. We further believe that our cash flow from operations coupled with the financing capital available to us in the future are sufficient to fund our long-term liquidity needs.

Equity Capital

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we raised net proceeds of $28.4 million of common equity under our Common Stock ATM Program at a net weighted average per share price of $21.19. We used these proceeds to pay down outstanding debt and for other general corporate purposes. We raised net proceeds of $1.9 million from our Series E Preferred Stock pursuant to our Series E Preferred Stock Sales Agreement during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

As of July 27, 2020, we had the ability to raise up to $404.0 million of additional equity capital through the sale and issuance of securities that are registered under the 2019 Universal Shelf, in one or more future public offerings. Of the $404.0 million of available capacity under our 2019 Universal Shelf, approximately $207.1 million is reserved for additional sales under our Common Stock ATM Program, and approximately $96.5 million is reserved for additional sales under our Series E Preferred Stock Sales Agreement as of July 27, 2020. We expect to continue to use our at-the-market programs as a source of liquidity for the remainder of 2020.

As of July 27, 2020, we had the ability to raise up to $800.0 million of additional equity capital through the sale and issuance of securities that are registered under the 2020 Universal Shelf, in one or more future public offerings. Of the $800.0 million of available capacity under our 2020 Universal Shelf, approximately $636.5 million is reserved for the sale of our Series F Preferred Stock as of July 27, 2020.

Debt Capital

As of June 30, 2020, we had 55 mortgage notes payable in the aggregate principal amount of $469.4 million, collateralized by a total of 70 properties with a remaining weighted average maturity of 4.8 years. The weighted-average interest rate on the mortgage notes payable as of June 30, 2020 was 4.27%.

We continue to see banks and other non-bank lenders willing to issue mortgages. Consequently, we are focused on obtaining mortgages through regional banks, non-bank lenders and the CMBS market.

As of June 30, 2020, we had mortgage debt in the aggregate principal amount of $13.2 million payable during the remainder of 2020 and $33.6 million payable during 2021. The 2020 principal amount payable includes both amortizing principal payments and two balloon principal payments due during the remaining six months of 2020. We repaid one of the remaining balloon principal payments during July 2020. We anticipate being able to refinance our mortgages that come due during the remainder of 2020 and 2021 with a combination of new debt and the issuance of additional equity securities. In addition, we have raised substantial equity under our at-the-market programs and plan to continue to use these programs.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020, was $35.4 million, as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $29.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. This change was primarily a result of an increase in operating revenues from our 21 property acquisitions completed during and subsequent to June 30, 2019, coupled with contractual lease revenue increases on the in-place portfolio, partially offset by an increase in general and administrative expenses, base management fees and incentive fees. The majority of cash from operating activities is generated from the lease revenues that we receive from our tenants. We utilize this cash to fund our property-level operating expenses and use the excess cash primarily for debt and interest payments on our mortgage notes payable, interest payments on our Credit Facility, distributions to our stockholders, management fees to our Adviser, Administration fees to our Administrator and other entity-level operating expenses.


43


Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020, was $70.7 million, which primarily consisted of five property acquisitions, coupled with capital improvements performed at certain of our properties, partially offset by proceeds from the sale of one property. Net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2019, was $41.9 million, which primarily consisted of six property acquisitions, coupled with capital improvements performed at certain of our properties, partially offset by proceeds from the sale of one property.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020, was $38.3 million, which primarily consisted of the issuance of $30.8 million of common and preferred equity, borrowings from our Term Loan of $37.7 million, and the issuance of $35.9 million of new mortgage debt, partially offset by the repayment of $24.4 million of mortgage principal and distributions paid to common, senior common and preferred shareholders. Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019, was $14.3 million, which primarily consisted of $41.1 million in new mortgage borrowings coupled with the issuance of $33.7 million of common equity, partially offset by $31.0 million of mortgage principal repayments, and distributions paid to common, senior common and preferred shareholders.

Credit Facility

On July 2, 2019, we amended, extended and upsized our Credit Facility, expanding the Term Loan from $75.0 million to $160.0 million, inclusive of a delayed Term Loan draw component whereby we can incrementally borrow on the Term Loan up to the $160.0 million commitment, and increasing the Revolver from $85.0 million to $100.0 million. The Term Loan has a new five-year term, with a maturity date of July 2, 2024, and the Revolver has a new four-year term, with a maturity date of July 2, 2023. The interest rate for the Credit Facility was reduced by 10 basis points at each of the leverage tiers. We entered into multiple interest rate cap agreements on the amended Term Loan, which cap LIBOR ranging from 2.50% to 2.75%, to hedge our exposure to variable interest rates. We used the net proceeds derived from the amended Credit Facility to repay all previously existing borrowings under the Revolver. We incurred fees of approximately $1.3 million in connection with the Credit Facility amendment. The bank syndicate is now comprised of KeyBank, Fifth Third Bank, U.S. Bank National Association, The Huntington National Bank, Goldman Sachs Bank USA, and Wells Fargo Bank.

As of June 30, 2020, there was $203.1 million outstanding under our Credit Facility at a weighted average interest rate of approximately 1.77% and $13.5 million outstanding under letters of credit at a weighted average interest rate of 1.65%. As of July 27, 2020, the maximum additional amount we could draw under the Credit Facility was $36.0 million. We were in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Facility as of June 30, 2020.

Debt obligations represent borrowings under our Revolver, which represents $43.1 million of the debt obligation due in 2023, our Term Loan, which represents $160.0 million of the debt obligation due in 2024, and mortgage notes payable that were outstanding as of June 30, 2020. This figure does not include $0.2 million of premiums and discounts, net and $5.4 million of deferred financing costs, net, which are reflected in mortgage notes payable, net, borrowings under Revolver, net and borrowings under Term Loan, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
(2)
Interest on debt obligations includes estimated interest on borrowings under our Revolver and Term Loan and mortgage notes payable. The balance and interest rate on our Revolver and Term Loan is variable; thus, the interest payment obligation calculated for purposes of this table was based upon rates and balances as of June 30, 2020.
(3)
Operating lease obligations represent the ground lease payments due on four of our properties.

(4)
Purchase obligations consist of tenant and capital improvements at five of our properties.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We did not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2020.

Funds from Operations

The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) developed Funds from Operations (“FFO”) as a relevant non-GAAP supplemental measure of operating performance of an equity REIT to recognize that income-producing real estate historically has not depreciated on the same basis determined under GAAP. FFO, as defined by NAREIT, is net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of property and impairment losses on property, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

FFO does not represent cash flows from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, which, unlike FFO, generally reflects all cash effects of transactions and other events in the determination of net income. FFO should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of our performance or to cash flows from operations as a measure of liquidity or ability to make distributions. Comparison of FFO, using the NAREIT definition, to similarly titled measures for other REITs may not necessarily be meaningful due to possible differences in the application of the NAREIT definition used by such REITs.

FFO available to common stockholders is FFO adjusted to subtract distributions made to holders of preferred stock and senior common stock. We believe that net income available to common stockholders is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to FFO available to common stockholders.

Basic funds from operations per share (“Basic FFO per share”), and diluted funds from operations per share (“Diluted FFO per share”), is FFO available to common stockholders divided by the number of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding and FFO available to common stockholders divided by the number of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding on a diluted basis, respectively, during a period. We believe that FFO available to common stockholders, Basic FFO per share and Diluted FFO per share are useful to investors because they provide investors with a further context for evaluating our FFO results in the same manner that investors use net income and earnings per share (“EPS”), in evaluating net income available to common stockholders. In addition, because most REITs provide FFO available to common stockholders, Basic FFO and Diluted FFO per share information to the investment community, we believe these are useful supplemental measures when comparing us to other REITs. We believe that net income is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to FFO, Basic EPS is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to Basic FFO per share, and that Diluted EPS is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to Diluted FFO per share.

Item 3.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Market risk includes risks that arise from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other market changes that affect market sensitive instruments. The primary risk that we believe we are and will be exposed to is interest rate risk. Certain of our leases contain escalations based on market indices, and the interest rate on our Credit Facility is variable. Although we seek to mitigate this risk by structuring such provisions of our loans and leases to contain a minimum interest rate or escalation rate, as applicable, these features do not eliminate this risk. To that end, we have entered into derivative contracts to cap interest rates for our variable rate notes payable, and we have entered into interest rate swaps whereby we pay a fixed interest rate to our respective counterparty, and receive one month LIBOR in return. For details regarding our rate cap agreements and our interest rate swap agreements see Note 6 – Mortgage Notes Payable and Credit Facility of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

To illustrate the potential impact of changes in interest rates on our net income for the six months ended June 30, 2020, we have performed the following analysis, which assumes that our condensed consolidated balance sheets remain constant and that no further actions beyond a minimum interest rate or escalation rate are taken to alter our existing interest rate sensitivity.

The following table summarizes the annual impact of a 1%, 2% and 3% increase in the one month LIBOR as of June 30, 2020. As of June 30, 2020, our effective average LIBOR was 0.16%. Given that a 1%, 2%, or 3% decrease in LIBOR would result in a negative rate, the impact of this fluctuation is not presented below (dollars in thousands).

As of June 30, 2020, the fair value of our mortgage debt outstanding was $481.2 million. Interest rate fluctuations may affect the fair value of our debt instruments. If interest rates on our debt instruments, using rates at June 30, 2020, had been one percentage point higher or lower, the fair value of those debt instruments on that date would have decreased or increased by $18.0 million and $19.3 million, respectively.

The amount outstanding under the Credit Facility approximates fair value as of June 30, 2020.

In the future, we may be exposed to additional effects of interest rate changes, primarily as a result of our Revolver, Term Loan or long-term mortgage debt, which we use to maintain liquidity and fund expansion of our real estate investment portfolio and operations. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, we will borrow primarily at fixed rates or variable rates with the lowest margins available and, in some cases, with the ability to convert variable rates to fixed rates. Additionally, we believe that there may be minimal impact on our variable rate debt, which is based upon the one month LIBOR rate, as a result of the expected transition from LIBOR to SOFR. We are currently monitoring the transition and the potential risks to us. We may also enter into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps and caps to mitigate the interest rate risk on a related financial instrument. We will not enter into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes.

In addition to changes in interest rates, the value of our real estate is subject to fluctuations based on changes in local and regional economic conditions and changes in the creditworthiness of lessees and borrowers, all of which may affect our ability to refinance debt, if necessary.

Item 4.
Controls and Procedures.

a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of June 30, 2020, our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2020 in providing a reasonable level of assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in applicable SEC rules and forms, including providing a reasonable level of assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in such reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. However, in evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated can provide only reasonable assurance of necessarily achieving the desired control objectives, and management was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1.
Legal Proceedings.

We are not currently subject to any material legal proceedings, nor, to our knowledge, is any material legal proceeding threatened against us.

Item 1A.
Risk Factors.

Our business is subject to certain risks and events that, if they occur, could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations and the trading price of our securities. For a discussion of these risks, please refer to the section captioned “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, and the risk factor below. Other than the risk factor below, there are no other material changes to risks associated with our business or investment in our securities from those previously set forth in the reports described above.

Disruptions in the financial markets and uncertain economic conditions resulting from the ongoing outbreak of COVID-19 could adversely affect market rental rates, commercial real estate values and our ability to secure debt financing, service future debt obligations, or pay distributions to stockholders.

Currently, both the investing and leasing environments are highly competitive. While there was an increase in the amount of capital flowing into the U.S. real estate markets early in 2020, which resulted in an increase in real estate values in certain markets, the recent downturn and uncertainty regarding the economic environment has made businesses reluctant to make long-term commitments or changes in their business plans. Specifically, the ongoing outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”), both in the U.S. and globally, has created significant disruptions to financial markets, has resulted in business shutdowns and has led to recessionary conditions in the economy in the short term. We expect the significance of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the extent of its effects on our financial and operational results, to be dictated by, among, other things, its nature, duration and scope, the success of efforts to contain the spread of COVID-19 and the impact of actions taken in response to the pandemic including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter in place orders, the promotion of social distancing and limitations on business activity, including business closures. At this point, the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may impact the global economy and our business is uncertain, but pandemics or other significant public health events could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Volatility in global markets and changing political environments can cause fluctuations in the performance of the U.S. commercial real estate markets. Economic slowdowns of large economies outside the United States are likely to negatively impact growth of the U.S. economy. Political uncertainties both home and abroad may discourage business investment in real estate and other capital spending. Possible future declines in rental rates and expectations of future rental concessions, including free rent to renew tenants early, to retain tenants who are up for renewal or to attract new tenants, or requests from tenants for rent abatements during periods when they are severely impacted by COVID-19, may result in decreases in our cash flows from investment properties. Increases in the cost of financing due to higher interest rates may cause difficulty in refinancing our debt obligations prior to maturity at terms as favorable as the terms of existing indebtedness. Market conditions can change quickly, potentially negatively impacting the value of our real estate investments. Management continuously reviews our investment and debt financing strategies to optimize our portfolio and the cost of our debt exposure.

The debt market remains sensitive to the macro-economic environment, such as Federal Reserve policy, market sentiment or regulatory factors affecting the banking and commercial mortgage backed securities ("CMBS") industries and the COVID-19 pandemic. We may experience more stringent lending criteria, which may affect our ability to finance certain property acquisitions or refinance any debt at maturity. Additionally, for properties for which we are able to obtain financing, the interest rates and other terms on such loans may be unacceptable. We expect to manage the current mortgage lending environment by considering alternative lending sources, including but not limited to securitized debt, fixed rate loans, short-term variable rate loans, assumed mortgage loans in connection with property acquisitions, interest rate lock or swap agreements, or any combination of the foregoing.

Disruptions in the financial markets and uncertain economic conditions could adversely affect the values of our investments. Furthermore, declining economic conditions could negatively impact commercial real estate fundamentals and result in lower occupancy, lower rental rates and declining values in our real estate portfolio, which could have a negative effect on the values of our properties and revenues from our properties. Additionally, the significant disruption and volatility in the global capital markets increases the cost of capital and may adversely impact our access to the capital markets, including our ability to raise capital through our at the market and continuous offering programs.

Exhibit 99.1

Pursuant to FINRA Rule 2310(b)(5), which became effective in April 2016, Gladstone Commercial Corporation (the "Company") determined the estimated value as of June 30, 2020 of its Senior Common Stock, $15.00 original issue price per share, with the assistance of a third party valuation service. In particular, the third party valuation service reviewed the amount resulting from the consolidated undepreciated book value of the Company's assets less its contractual liabilities, divided by the number of fully diluted shares of the Company's Common Stock outstanding, all as reflected in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I of the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 to which this exhibit is attached, which were prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Based on this methodology, the Company has determined that the estimated value of its Senior Common Stock as of June 30, 2020 is $19.77 per share.
