Sovran Self Storage Reports Second Quarter Results; Adjusted FFO per Share Increases 14.8%, Acquired Nine Properties
BUFFALO, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 29, 2015--Sovran Self Storage, Inc. (NYSE:SSS), a self storage real estate investment trust (REIT), reported operating results for the quarter ended June 30, 2015.
Second Quarter 2015 Highlights:
Net income available to common shareholders for the second quarter of 2015 was $28.5 million or $0.80 per fully diluted common share. For the same period in 2014, net income available to common shareholders was $20.6 million or $0.62 per fully diluted common share.
Funds from operations (FFO) for the quarter were $1.22 per fully diluted common share compared to $1.00 for the same period last year. In the second quarter of 2015, the Company incurred acquisition costs of $0.8 million in connection with its property purchases. In the second quarter of 2014, the Company incurred $2.1 million of acquisition costs and a $0.5 million straight-line rent adjustment relating to the lease expense of four properties that were subsequently purchased on February 2, 2015. Absent these charges, adjusted FFO per share was $1.24 and $1.08 for the second quarter of 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Increased occupancy, rental rates, and controlled operating costs were the primary contributors to the Company’s strong FFO growth during the quarter.
OPERATIONS:
Total revenues increased 12.8% over last year’s second quarter while operating costs increased 9.9%, resulting in an NOI (4) increase of 14.2%. Overall occupancy averaged 91.4% for the period, and rental rates averaged $12.28 per sq. ft.
Revenues for the 399 stores wholly owned by the Company since January 1, 2014 increased 5.8% from those of the second quarter of 2014, the result of a 130 basis point increase in average occupancy, a 3.9% increase in rental rates and increases in tenant insurance commissions and other income.
Same store operating expenses increased 1.8% for the second quarter of 2015 compared to the prior year period, primarily the result of increased repair and maintenance costs, offset by decreases in utilities cost and marketing expense.
Consequently, same store net operating income increased 7.8% this period over the second quarter of 2014.
General and administrative expenses increased by approximately $0.8 million over the same period in 2014, primarily due to increases in personnel costs associated with operating 30 more stores during the quarter than at this time last year. Beginning with the first quarter of 2015, the company reclassified internet marketing costs from general and administrative expenses to property operations expense for all periods presented so as to be consistent with industry practices.
During the second quarter of 2015, the Company experienced same store revenue growth in 23 of the 24 states in which it operates. Overall, the stores with the strongest revenue impact include those in Texas, Florida, New York and Georgia.
PROPERTIES:
During the quarter, the Company acquired nine storage facilities at a cost of approximately $75 million. Two of the stores, one in Phoenix, AZ, and the other in Boston, MA, were purchased upon completion of construction. The other seven stores are established; five of which are in southern Florida, one in Dallas, TX, and the other in Jacksonville, FL.
At June 30, 2015, the Company was in contract to acquire an additional 13 stores for total consideration of $85 million. These pending acquisitions are subject to further due diligence and closing conditions; therefore no assurance can be given that these properties will be purchased according to the terms described.
CAPITAL TRANSACTIONS:
Illustrated below are key financial ratios at June 30, 2015:
At June 30, 2015, the Company had approximately $6.6 million of cash on hand, and $204 million available on its line of credit.
During the quarter, the Company issued 199,700 shares pursuant to its “At The Market” (ATM) program at an average price of $91.53 per share. The net proceeds of $18 million were used to acquire the aforementioned properties. In April, the Company issued 44,869 shares at a price of $88.98 through its Dividend Reinvestment Plan.
COMMON STOCK DIVIDEND:
Subsequent to quarter-end, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.85 per share or $3.40 annualized.
YEAR 2015 EARNINGS GUIDANCE:
Management is encouraged by its occupancy gains and its ability to attain significant rental rate growth in most markets. The following assumptions covering operations have been utilized in formulating guidance for the third quarter and full year 2015:
Same Store
Projected Increases Over 2014 |
|||||
3Q 2015 | Full Year 2015 | ||||
Revenue | 5.5 – 6.5% | 5.5 – 6.5% | |||
Operating Costs (excluding property taxes) | 3.0 – 4.0% | 2.5 – 3.5% | |||
Property Taxes | 2.5 – 3.5% | 5.0 – 6.0% | |||
Total Operating Expenses | 2.5 – 3.5% | 3.0 – 4.0% | |||
Net Operating Income | 7.0 – 8.0% | 6.5 – 7.5% |
The Houston market comprises approximately 10.8% of the 2015 forecasted NOI of the Company’s 442 wholly owned stores, and is expected to perform at least as well as the overall portfolio. Forecasts for the 40 same store pool of properties in the Company’s Houston market include revenue growth of 6.0% – 6.5%, operating expense increases of 3.0% – 4.0% (inclusive of a 5% projected increase in property taxes), and NOI growth of between 7.0% and 8.0%.
The Company intends to spend up to $25-30 million on its expansion and enhancement program. It has also budgeted $19 million to provide for recurring capitalized expenditures including roofing, paving, and office renovations.
The Company has assumed $85 million of accretive acquisitions for the remainder of 2015 in addition to the $209 million of acquisitions completed through June 30, 2015. Per share adjusted FFO guidance is projected after adding back third party acquisition costs. Purchases of these additional properties are expected to be funded via proceeds from the Company’s ATM program and draws on its line of credit which carries an interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.30%.
Annual general and administrative expenses, excluding internet marketing costs, are expected to be approximately $39 million. The increase over the prior year is primarily due to the need for additional personnel required for recent acquisitions, income taxes on its taxable REIT subsidiaries, and the Company’s plans to continue expanding its Corporate Alliance and third party management programs.
At June 30, 2015, the Company had 35.8 million shares of common stock outstanding and 0.2 million Operating Partnership Units outstanding.
As a result of the above assumptions, management expects adjusted funds from operations for the full year 2015 to be approximately $4.83 to $4.89 per share, and between $1.29 and $1.31 per share for the third quarter of 2015.

(2) We believe that Funds from Operations (“FFO”) provides relevant and meaningful information about our operating performance that is necessary, along with net earnings and cash flows, for an understanding of our operating results. FFO adds back historical cost depreciation, which assumes the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably in the future. In fact, real estate asset values increase or decrease with market conditions. Consequently, we believe FFO is a useful supplemental measure in evaluating our operating performance by disregarding (or adding back) historical cost depreciation. | |
Funds from operations is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“NAREIT”) as net income available to common shareholders computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), excluding gains or losses on sales of properties, plus impairment of real estate assets, plus depreciation and amortization and after adjustments to record unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures on the same basis. We believe that to further understand our performance, FFO should be compared with our reported net income and cash flows in accordance with GAAP, as presented in our consolidated financial statements. | |
Our computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs or real estate companies that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of our performance, as an alternative to net cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our liquidity, or as an indicator of our ability to make cash distributions. |

(4) Net operating income or "NOI" is a non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) financial measure that we define as total continuing revenues less continuing property operating expenses. NOI also can be calculated by adding back to net income: interest expense, impairment and casualty losses, depreciation and amortization expense, acquisition related costs, general and administrative expense, and deducting from net income: income from discontinued operations, interest income, gain on sale of real estate, and equity in income of joint ventures. We believe that NOI is a meaningful measure of operating performance, because we utilize NOI in making decisions with respect to capital allocations, in determining current property values, and comparing period-to-period and market-to-market property operating results. NOI should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP, such as total revenues, operating income and net income. | |
