For Immediate Release

 

Bluerock Residential Growth REIT Announces Third Quarter 2019 Results

 

- Total Revenues Grew 11.8% to $53.5 Million -

- Same Store Revenue Grew 4.3% YoY -

 

New York, NY (November 5, 2019) – Bluerock Residential Growth REIT, Inc. (NYSE American: BRG) (“the Company”), an owner of highly amenitized multi-family apartment communities, announced today its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2019.

 

Highlights

 

Total revenues grew 11.8% to $53.5 million for the quarter from $47.9 million in the prior year period.

 

Net income attributable to common stockholders for the third quarter of 2019 was $0.75 per diluted share, as compared to net loss attributable to common stockholders of ($0.44) per diluted share in the prior year period.

 

Property Net Operating Income (“NOI”) grew 15.9% to $28.0 million from $24.2 million in the prior year period.

 

Same store revenue and same store NOI increased 4.3% and 4.3% respectively, as compared to the prior year period.

 

Core funds from operations attributable to common stockholders and unit holders (“CFFO”) was $5.8 million, compared to $6.4 million in the prior year period. CFFO per diluted share is $0.19 for the quarter as compared to $0.21 in third quarter 2018. The change year over year was due in part to the timing of reinvestment of capital from asset dispositions in the quarter as part of the Company’s recycling into higher growth assets. The Company is reaffirming its 2019 CFFO per share guidance range.

 

Completed the sale of seven assets during the quarter, totaling approximately $369 million at an economic cap rate of 4.7%.

 

Invested in two multifamily communities totaling 965 units for a total purchase price of $193.1 million. The two new acquisitions are projected to yield a year one economic cap rate of 4.9% and grow to north of 6.0%. The Company maintains a robust pipeline and is actively working on closing additional investments by year end.

 

Invested $9.9 million in new preferred investments in two unrelated third-party operating multifamily communities totaling 304 units in Austin, Texas.

 

Paid quarterly common stock dividend of $0.1625, an 86% payout on a CFFO basis.

 

Consolidated real estate investments, at cost, increased approximately $22.1 million to $1.8 billion, from year end.

 

Completed 263 value-add unit upgrades during the quarter producing a 22.7% ROI through increased monthly rental rates.

Third Quarter Earnings Release

 

“We produced strong operating results in the third quarter in-line with our expectations, with property NOI up 15.9% and same store NOI that increased 4.3%,” said Ramin Kamfar, Company Chairman and CEO. “These results reflect the successful execution of our strategy which includes creating value through our unit upgrade program and operational improvements. During the quarter, we completed multiple asset sales and recycled the proceeds into attractive assets with a stronger long-term growth profile and immediate value-add renovation opportunities. As we look ahead, we remain optimistic as we continue to realize the embedded growth opportunities within our portfolio, along with identifying attractive investments to expand our portfolio of highly amenitized communities in targeted growth markets.”

 

Financial Results

 

Net income attributable to common stockholders for the third quarter of 2019 was $17.2 million, or $0.75 per diluted share, compared to a net loss attributable to common stockholders of ($10.3) million, or ($0.44) per diluted share, in the prior year period. Net income attributable to common stockholders included non-cash expenses of $17.5 million, or $0.77 per share in the third quarter of 2019 compared to non-cash expense of $14.2 million or $0.60 per share for the prior year period. Net income attributable to common stockholders for the third quarter of 2019 was positively impacted by the gain on sale of real estate investments of $1.56 per diluted share.

 

CFFO for the third quarter of 2019 was $5.8 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, compared to $6.4 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, in the prior year period. CFFO was primarily driven by growth in property NOI of $3.8 million and interest income of $0.4 million arising from investment activity. This was primarily offset by a year-over-year rise in interest expense of $1.5 million and preferred stock dividends of $2.8 million. Timing of acquisitions and dispositions, together with the requirement to place the sale proceeds in escrow to effectuate 1031 exchanges which limited the Company’s ability to paydown its credit facilities, accounted for the majority of the year-over-year per share decrease.

Same store property revenues increased by 4.3% compared to the same prior year period, primarily attributable to a 5.1% increase in average rental rates partially offset by average occupancy decreasing 60 basis points to 94.1%. Same store expenses increased $0.6 million primarily due to higher real estate taxes and insurance premiums, and increases in turnover, repairs and maintenance, and payroll costs.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

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

 

Funds from Operations and Core Funds from Operations Attributable to Common Stockholders and Unit Holders

 

We believe that funds from operations (“FFO”), as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), and core funds from operations (“CFFO) are important non-GAAP supplemental measures of operating performance for a REIT.

 

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

 

CFFO makes certain adjustments to FFO, removing the effect of items that do not reflect ongoing property operations such as acquisition expenses, non-cash interest, unrealized gains or losses on derivatives, losses on extinguishment of debt and debt modification costs (includes prepayment penalties incurred and the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs and fair market value adjustments of assumed debt), one-time weather-related costs, gains or losses on sales of non-depreciable real estate property, shareholder activism, stock compensation expense and preferred stock accretion. We believe that CFFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it excludes the effects of certain items which can create significant earnings volatility, but which do not directly relate to our core recurring property operations. As a result, we believe that CFFO can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and provides a more meaningful predictor of future earnings potential.

 

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

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

 

We have acquired five operating properties and made six property investments through preferred equity interests or mezzanine loans, and sold seven operating properties subsequent to September 30, 2018. Therefore, the results presented in the table below are not directly comparable and should not be considered an indication of our future operating performance.

 

The table below reconciles our calculations of FFO and CFFO to net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 (in thousands, except per share amounts):

Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization for Real Estate ("EBITDAre")

 

NAREIT defines earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization for real estate ("EBITDAre") (September 2017 White Paper) as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, and further adjusted for gains and losses from sales of depreciated operating properties, and impairment write-downs of depreciated operating properties.

 

We consider EBITDAre to be an appropriate supplemental measure of our performance because it eliminates depreciation, income taxes, interest and non-recurring items, which permits investors to view income from operations unobscured by non-cash items such as depreciation, amortization, the cost of debt or non-recurring items.

 

Adjusted EBITDAre represents EBITDAre further adjusted for non-comparable items and it is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for our management’s discretionary use, as it does not consider certain cash requirements such as income tax payments, debt service requirements, capital expenditures and other fixed charges.

 

EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre are not recognized measurements under GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

 

Below is a reconciliation of net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders to EBITDAre (unaudited and dollars in thousands).

Same Store Properties

 

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

 

Property Net Operating Income ("Property NOI")

 

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

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

Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

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

 

Funds from Operations and Core Funds from Operations, Attributable to Common Stockholders and Unit Holders

We believe that funds from operations (“FFO”), as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), and core funds from operations (“CFFO”) are important non-GAAP supplemental measures of operating performance for a REIT.

 

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

 

CFFO makes certain adjustments to FFO, removing the effect of items that do not reflect ongoing property operations such as acquisition expenses, non-cash interest, unrealized gains or losses on derivatives, losses on extinguishment of debt and debt modification costs (includes prepayment penalties incurred and the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs and fair market value adjustments of assumed debt), one-time weather-related costs, gains or losses on sales of non-depreciable real estate property, shareholder activism, stock compensation expense and preferred stock accretion. We believe that CFFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it excludes the effects of certain items which can create significant earnings volatility, but which do not directly relate to our core recurring property operations. As a result, we believe that CFFO can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and provides a more meaningful predictor of future earnings potential.

 

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

 

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

 

We have acquired five operating properties and made six property investments through preferred equity interests or mezzanine loans, and sold seven operating properties subsequent to September 30, 2018. The results presented are not directly comparable and should not be considered an indication of our future operating performance (unaudited and dollars in thousands, except share and per share data).

Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization for Real Estate ("EBITDAre")

 

NAREIT defines earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization for real estate ("EBITDAre") (September 2017 White Paper) as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, and further adjusted for gains and losses from sales of depreciated operating properties, and impairment write-downs of depreciated operating properties.

 

We consider EBITDAre to be an appropriate supplemental measure of our performance because it eliminates depreciation, income taxes, interest and non-recurring items, which permits investors to view income from operations unobscured by non-cash items such as depreciation, amortization, the cost of debt or non-recurring items.

 

Adjusted EBITDAre represents EBITDAre further adjusted for non-comparable items and it is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for our management’s discretionary use, as it does not consider certain cash requirements such as income tax payments, debt service requirements, capital expenditures and other fixed charges.

 

EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre are not recognized measurements under GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

 

The reconciliations of net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders to EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre are presented in the table below:

Property Net Operating Income ("Property NOI")

 

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

 

We have acquired five operating properties and made six property investments through preferred equity interests or mezzanine loans, and sold seven operating properties subsequent to September 30, 2018. Therefore, the results presented in the table below are not directly comparable and should not be considered an indication of our future operating performance.

 

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