SmartStop Self Storage REIT, Inc. Reports Strong Second Quarter 2021 Results With Record Same-Store Revenue and NOI Growth

LADERA RANCH, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–SmartStop Self Storage REIT, Inc. (“SmartStop”), a self-managed and fully-integrated self storage company with approximately $1.8 billion of self storage assets under management, announced its overall results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

SmartStop had an exceptionally strong second quarter, with our highest ever recorded same-store occupancy of 96.3% at quarter end and strong rental rate growth. This resulted in same-store revenue and NOI growth of 21.5% and 28.7% for the quarter, respectively, both higher than all of our publicly-traded peers,” said H. Michael Schwartz, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of SmartStop. “Our best-in-class portfolio posted strong results in all of our markets throughout North America. Specifically, the Greater Toronto Area (“the GTA”) was our best performing market this quarter with same-store revenue and NOI growth of 33.6% and 45.0%, respectively. The GTA continues to be a high performing market, a key differentiator between SmartStop and our peer group and a primary piece of our Company’s growth initiatives. On the external growth front, we continue to find accretive acquisitions, acquiring two wholly-owned properties for $31 million during the quarter and our acquisition pipeline remains healthy. With ample attractively priced capital, a strong acquisitions pipeline and a robust operating environment, we believe the company is well positioned to execute both our internal and external growth initiatives, driving stockholder value in 2021 and beyond.”

External Growth

In April, SmartStop acquired a recently built, six-story self storage facility in Oakville, Ontario, Canada. The property was completed in April 2020 and was approximately 40% occupied at acquisition. The property’s 1,070 units are 100% climate-controlled across approximately 81,500 square feet. The property offers customers a variety of amenities including state-of-the-art security systems, elevators, keypad access, a gated drive-in loading area and more. The facility is our third in Oakville, establishing SmartStop as a dominant player in the submarket. This was SmartStop’s 17th owned or managed operating property in the GTA.

In May, SmartStop acquired a self storage facility in Riverside, CA, the most populous city in Southern California’s “Inland Empire.” This prime location has great visibility from Van Buren Boulevard and provides easy access from the Riverside Freeway. The facility serves the communities of La Sierra, Corona, East Vale, Ramona, and Jurupa Valley and is located next to Riverside Municipal Airport. The property’s 379 units and 71 RV parking spaces span across approximately 68,700 square feet. The property offers customers a variety of amenities including a gated drive-in loading area, state-of-the-art security systems, keypad access and large truck accessibility. With an RV parking component, this new facility offers customers a complimentary product type from our two neighboring SmartStop facilities, one of which is directly adjacent. The facility is the Company’s third in the submarket and 29th owned or managed location in California.

Declared Distributions

On June 23, 2021, SmartStop’s board of directors declared a distribution rate for the third quarter of 2021, of approximately $0.00164 per day per share on the outstanding shares of common stock payable to both Class A and Class T stockholders. In connection with these distributions, after the stockholder servicing fee is paid, approximately $0.0014 per day will be paid per Class T share. Such distributions payable to each stockholder of record during a month will be paid the following month.

These items represent the amortization, accretion, or adjustment of intangible assets or deferred tax liabilities. As these items are non-cash and not primary drivers in SmartStop’s decision-making process, FFO is adjusted for their effect to arrive at FFO, as adjusted, as a means of determining a comparable sustainable operating performance metric to other real estate companies.

(2)

 

In evaluating investments in real estate, SmartStop differentiates the costs to acquire the investment from the operations derived from the investment. Such information would be comparable only for publicly registered, non-traded REITs that have generally completed their acquisition activity and have other similar operating characteristics.

(3)

 

The contingent earnout adjustment represents the adjustment to the fair value of the Class A-2 Units issued in connection with the Self Administration Transaction. FFO is adjusted to arrive at FFO, as adjusted, as this acquisition related item is not a primary driver in SmartStop’s decision-making process and excluding this provides investors a view of SmartStop’s continuing operating portfolio performance over time.

(4)

 

The impairment charges relate to SmartStop’s goodwill, intangible assets and investments in the Managed REIT Platform acquired in the Self Administration Transaction. SmartStop believes that adjusting for such non-recurring items provides useful supplemental information because such expenses may not be reflective of on-going operations and is consistent with management’s analysis of SmartStop’s operating performance and provides for a means of determining a comparable sustainable operating performance metric.

(5)

 

This represents the difference between the stated interest rate and the estimated market interest rate on assumed notes as of the date of acquisition. Such amounts have been excluded from FFO, as adjusted, because SmartStop believes FFO, as adjusted, provides useful supplementary information by focusing on operating fundamentals, rather than events not related to SmartStop’s normal operations. SmartStop is responsible for managing interest rate risk and do not rely on another party to manage such risk.

(6)

 

The net loss associated with the extinguishment of debt includes prepayment penalties, the write-off of unamortized deferred financing fees, and other fees incurred. SmartStop believes that adjusting for such non-recurring items provides useful supplemental information because such losses may not be reflective of on-going transactions and operations and is consistent with management’s analysis of SmartStop’s operating performance.

(7)

 

This represents the mark-to-market adjustment for SmartStop’s derivative instruments not designated for hedge accounting and the ineffective portion of the change in fair value of derivatives recognized in earnings, as well as changes in foreign currency related to SmartStop’s foreign equity investments not classified as long term. These derivative contracts are intended to manage the Company’s exposure to interest rate and foreign currency risk which may not be reflective of SmartStop’s ongoing performance and may reflect unrealized impacts on SmartStop’s operating performance. Such amounts are recorded in “Other” within SmartStop’s consolidated statements of operations.

SMARTSTOP SELF STORAGE REIT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NON-GAAP MEASURE – COMPUTATION OF SAME-STORE OPERATING RESULTS

(Unaudited)

The following table sets forth operating data for SmartStop’s same-store facilities (those properties included in the consolidated results of operations since January 1, 2020, excluding nine lease-up properties SmartStop owned as of January 1, 2020) for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. SmartStop considers the following data to be meaningful as this allows for the comparison of results without the effects of acquisition, lease up, or development activity.

Of the total rentable square feet, parking represented approximately 937,000 square feet and 678,000 square feet as of June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. On a same-store basis, for the same periods, parking represented approximately 678,000 square feet.

(4)

 

Determined by dividing the sum of the month-end occupied square feet for the applicable group of facilities for each applicable period by the sum of their month-end rentable square feet for the period.

(5)

 

Determined by dividing the aggregate realized rental income for each applicable period by the aggregate of the month-end occupied square feet for the period. Properties are included in the respective calculations in their first full month of operations, as appropriate. SmartStop has excluded the realized rental revenue and occupied square feet related to parking herein for the purpose of calculating annualized rent per occupied square foot.

(6)

 

Included in the non same-store data is a self storage facility consisting of approximately 84,000 square feet owned by SST VI OP for the period during which SmartStop consolidated their financial statements. As of June 30, 2021, SmartStop was no longer required to consolidate their financial statements.

SmartStop’s same-store revenue increased by approximately $5.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020 due to higher annualized rent per occupied square foot and increased occupancy.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net loss as presented on SmartStop’s consolidated statements of operations to property operating income, as stated above, for the periods indicated:
