NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2022
(Unaudited)


1.Description of the Business
Public Storage (referred to herein as “the Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), a Maryland real estate investment trust (“REIT”), was organized in 1980. Our principal business activities include the ownership and operation of self-storage facilities that offer storage spaces for lease, generally on a month-to-month basis, for personal and business use, ancillary activities such as tenant reinsurance, merchandise sales, and third party management, as well as the acquisition and development of additional self-storage space.
At June 30, 2022, we had direct and indirect equity interests in 2,807 self-storage facilities (with approximately 200.1 million net rentable square feet) located in 39 states in the United States (“U.S.”) operating under the Public Storage® name, and 0.9 million net rentable square feet of commercial and retail space.
At June 30, 2022, we owned a 35% common equity interest in Shurgard Self Storage SA (“Shurgard”), a public company traded on Euronext Brussels under the “SHUR” symbol, which owned 256 self-storage facilities (with approximately 14 million net rentable square feet) located in seven Western European countries, all operating under the Shurgard® name. We also owned a 41% common equity interest in PS Business Parks, Inc.

Investment in PSB
Throughout all periods presented, we owned 7,158,354 shares of PSB’s common stock and 7,305,355 limited partnership units in an operating partnership controlled by PSB, representing a 41% common equity interest as of June 30, 2022 (41% as of December 31, 2021). The limited partnership units were convertible at our option, subject to certain conditions, on a one-for-one basis into PSB common stock.
Based upon the closing price at June 30, 2022 ($187.15 per share of PSB common stock), the shares and units we owned had a market value of approximately $2.7 billion. During each of the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we received cash distributions from PSB totaling $30.4 million.
As of June 30, 2022, PSB was a publicly held entity traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “PSB”.
Refer to Note 15. Subsequent Events for information regarding PSB’s closed merger transaction with Blackstone on July 20, 2022, which resulted in the sale of our 41% common equity interest in PSB in its entirety.
Investment in Shurgard
Throughout all periods presented, we effectively owned, directly and indirectly 31,268,459 Shurgard common shares, representing a 35% equity interest in Shurgard.
Based upon the closing price at June 30, 2022 (€44.45 per share of Shurgard common stock, at 1.045 exchange rate of US Dollars to the Euro), the shares we owned had a market value of approximately $1.5 billion.
Our equity in earnings of Shurgard comprised our equity share of Shurgard’s net income, less amortization of the Shurgard Basis Differential (defined below). We eliminated $0.6 million of intra-entity profits and losses for each of the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, representing our equity share of the trademark license fees that Shurgard pays to us for the use of the Shurgard® trademark. We classify the remaining license fees we receive from Shurgard as interest and other income on our income statement. During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we received cash dividends from Shurgard totaling $20.1 million and $21.5 million, respectively.
At June 30, 2022, our investment in Shurgard’s real estate assets included in investment in unconsolidated real estate entities exceeds our pro-rata share of the underlying amounts on Shurgard’s balance sheet by approximately $70.6 million ($74.7 million at December 31, 2021). This differential (the “Shurgard Basis Differential”) includes our cost basis adjustment in Shurgard’s real estate assets net of related deferred income taxes. The real estate assets basis differential is being amortized as a reduction to equity in earnings of the Unconsolidated Real Estate Entities. Such amortization totaled approximately $4.1 million and $4.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Shurgard is a publicly held entity trading on Euronext Brussels under the symbol “SHUR”.
