American Campus Communities, Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2020 Financial Results
AUSTIN, Texas -- (BUSINESS WIRE)—October 26, 2020--American Campus Communities, Inc. (NYSE:ACC) today announced the following financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2020.
Highlights
•Reported net loss attributable to ACC of $19.5 million or $0.15 per fully diluted share, versus net income of $20.2 million or $0.14 per fully diluted share in the third quarter 2019.
•Reported FFOM of $45.2 million or $0.32 per fully diluted share versus $64.1 million or $0.46 per fully diluted share for the third quarter prior year.
•Same store net operating income ("NOI") decreased by 14.0 percent versus the third quarter 2019, as revenues decreased 9.3 percent and operating expenses decreased 5.2 percent. Same store revenues were impacted by approximately $15.0 million of rent relief, lost revenues from summer camps and conferences, waived fees, increased uncollectible accounts primarily associated with previous academic year leases, and other COVID-19 related items. In addition, due to the decrease in occupancy of the same store portfolio for Academic Year 2020-2021, same store revenues for the quarter were approximately $8.6 million below those anticipated prior to the impacts of COVID-19.
•Received payments for approximately 97 percent of rent for the month of September, the first full month of the new academic year.
•Achieved an average rental rate increase of 1.1 percent and 90.3 percent leased for 2021 same store properties as of September 30, 2020 versus 97.4 percent for the same date prior year.
•Delivered two owned American Campus Equity (ACE®) developments and the second phase of the Disney College Program project into service on schedule and within budget.
•Commenced construction on a third-party on-campus development project at Georgetown University. The 476-bed development is located four blocks from the United States Capitol and is tracking LEED Platinum certification.
•Earned Great Place to Work™ certification based on extensive ratings provided by employees in anonymous surveys, resulting in 97 percent of employees responding that ACC is a great place to work, 98 percent agreeing that management is honest and ethical in its business practices and that 98 percent are proud to tell others they work at ACC.
•Recognized for the second consecutive year as an honoree of Texan by Nature 20 (TxN20), an official ranking of the top 20 companies in Texas for its leadership and commitment to conservation and sustainability.
“While the COVID-19 pandemic has presented many challenges for us all, we are pleased with the outcome of the Fall 2020 lease-up and the consumer sentiment reflecting students’ desire to be in the college environment with their peers regardless of the method of curriculum delivery. We are also encouraged that our collection rates have been improving, with approximately 97 percent of rent being paid for the month of September versus the downward trend being experienced in other sectors,” said Bill Bayless, American Campus Communities CEO. “Once again, the student housing industry exhibited a large degree of resiliency in the Fall 2020 lease-up, with Axiometrics reporting growth in same store rental rates across the industry. More broadly, we are encouraged by the universities’ policies and procedures this fall as these
institutions continue to promote a safe environment to promote academic achievement and personal growth among students. In recent weeks, several universities have announced planned expansions of in-person activities for the Spring 2021 term based upon the success of their current operating policies as we continue to progress toward a return to normalcy throughout the 2020-2021 academic year.”
Third Quarter Operating Results
Revenue for the 2020 third quarter totaled $202.7 million versus $227.7 million in the third quarter 2019, and operating income for the quarter totaled $8.2 million versus $27.3 million in the prior year third quarter. The decrease in revenue and operating income was primarily due to the impacts of COVID-19, including a decrease in owned properties’ occupancy from the Academic Year 2020-2021 lease-up, with owned property revenues for the quarter declining approximately $12.6 million versus those initially anticipated prior to the impact of COVID-19. Additionally, COVID-19 related rent abatements, early lease terminations, lost revenue from summer camps and conferences, increased uncollectible accounts primarily associated with previous academic year leases and waived fee income totaled approximately $15.1 million, partially offset by a decrease in owned properties operating expenses of $5.3 million. Net loss for the 2020 third quarter totaled $19.5 million, or $0.15 per fully diluted share, compared with net income of $20.2 million, or $0.14 per fully diluted share for the same quarter in 2019. FFO for the 2020 third quarter totaled $45.0 million, or $0.32 per fully diluted share, as compared to $86.0 million, or $0.62 per fully diluted share for the same quarter in 2019. FFOM for the 2020 third quarter was $45.2 million, or $0.32 per fully diluted share, as compared to $64.1 million, or $0.46 per fully diluted share for the same quarter in 2019. A reconciliation of FFO and FFOM to net income is provided in Table 3.
NOI for same store properties was $81.8 million in the quarter, a decrease of 14.0 percent from $95.0 million in the third quarter 2019. Same store property revenues decreased by 9.3 percent and same store property operating expenses decreased by 5.2 percent versus the prior year quarter. NOI for the total owned portfolio decreased 14.2 percent to $85.8 million for the quarter from $100.0 million in the comparable period of 2019. A reconciliation of same store NOI to total NOI is provided in Table 4.
Portfolio Update
Developments
During the quarter, the company completed the $46.9 million second phase of the Disney College Program development on schedule and within budget. Due to the COVID-19 related temporary suspension of the Disney College Program, the phase was not occupied as originally scheduled. Walt Disney World® Resort continues to take a measured and phased approach to opening and is currently reviewing the timing for resuming the Disney College Program and the related occupancy of the project. In support of the relationship, Walt Disney World® has agreed that ground rent will not commence until occupancy occurs and is also in discussions with ACC to market and lease the project to a broader rental market until the internship program is resumed to a level at which participants can fully occupy the available beds. The company continues construction on the remaining phases of the project, which are expected to be completed as originally anticipated through 2023. Collectively, the Disney College Program project represents $614.6 million in development cost and the company still expects to meet its original targeted stabilized development yield of 6.8 percent.
During the quarter, the company also completed two development projects totaling $170.9 million on the campuses of the University of Southern California Health Sciences and San Francisco State University on schedule and within budget. Due primarily to university policies related to COVID-19, initial occupancy levels for these new developments are below those originally anticipated, but the company currently expects to meet the targeted stabilized development yields of 6.25 percent for Academic Year 2021-2022.
Third-Party Services
The company commenced construction on a 476-bed third-party on-campus development project with Georgetown University, which is located on Georgetown’s Capitol Campus and is tracking LEED Platinum certification. The company expects to earn $3.0 million in development fees throughout the development period and anticipates providing management services for the project upon completion.
Capital Markets
As of September 30, 2020, the company exhibited a healthy balance sheet with ample liquidity including
approximately $44.4 million in cash and $723.3 million available on its unsecured revolving credit facility. In addition, there are no remaining debt maturities in 2020 and approximately $72.3 million in planned development expenditures for the remainder of the year.
At-The-Market (ATM) Share Offering Program
The company did not sell any shares under the ATM during the quarter.
COVID-19 Update
The company continues to implement its COVID-19 response plan consistent with the eight principle objectives previously reported. The company continues to collaborate in good faith with its university partners, and at the request of one of these partners, agreed to refund a portion of students’ rent that had on-campus lease terms spanning the third and fourth quarter. During the third quarter, refunded rent totaled $2.1 million and the company anticipates an additional $1.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2020, as compared to the $15.1 million in on-campus rent refunds provided during the second quarter of 2020. No other rental refunds related to the company’s on-campus ACE properties are being discussed at this time.
During the quarter, the company collected an average of 94.6 percent of rent, representing total delinquency of approximately $8.5 million. This compares to 93.7 percent during the second quarter of 2020, which represented total rent delinquency of $10.4 million. With the inception of new lease contracts for Academic Year 2020-2021, the company experienced substantial improvement in collections with 96.9 percent of September rent being paid.
As previously announced, during the second quarter, the company formed a Resident Hardship Program to provide relief on a case-by-case basis to those residents and families who have endured financial hardship due to the COVID-19 pandemic. For the months of July through September, of the total $8.5 million in delinquent rent noted above, the company granted approximately $4.7 million in rent relief to residents under the Resident Hardship Program.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") currently defines Funds from Operations ("FFO") as net income or loss attributable to common shares computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), excluding gains or losses from depreciable operating property sales, impairment charges and real estate depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We present FFO because we consider it an important supplemental measure of our operating performance and believe it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs. We also believe it is meaningful to present a measure we refer to as FFO-Modified, or (“FFOM”), which reflects certain adjustments related to the economic performance of our on-campus participating properties and excludes property acquisition costs and other non-cash items, as we determine in good faith. FFO and FFOM should not be considered as alternatives to net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of our financial performance or to cash flow from operating activities computed in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of our liquidity, nor are these measures indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends or make distributions.
The company defines property net operating income (“NOI”) as property revenues less direct property operating expenses, excluding depreciation, but including allocated corporate general and administrative expenses.
