For the three months ended September 30, 2024, net income allocable to our common shareholders was $380.7 million or $2.16 per diluted common share, compared to $563.2 million or $3.20 per diluted common share for the same period in 2023, representing a decrease of $182.5 million or $1.04 per diluted common share. The decrease is due primarily to (i) a $118.5 million increase in foreign currency losses primarily associated with our Euro denominated notes payable, (ii) a $41.6 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense, and (iii) a $15.9 million increase in interest expense, partially offset by (iv) an $11.7 million increase in self-storage net operating income.

The $11.7 million increase in self-storage net operating income in the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in 2023 is a result of a $29.8 million increase attributable to our Non-Same Store Facilities (as defined below), partially offset by an $18.0 million decrease attributable to our Same Store Facilities. Revenues for the Same Store Facilities decreased 1.3% or $12.3 million in the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in 2023, due primarily to lower realized annual rent per occupied square foot and a decline in occupancy. Cost of operations for the Same Store Facilities increased by 2.6% or $5.8 million in the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in 2023, due primarily to increased other direct property costs, repairs and maintenance expense and marketing expense, partially offset by decreased on-site property manager payroll. The increase in net operating income of $29.8 million for the Non-Same Store Facilities is due primarily to the impact of facilities acquired in 2023.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net income allocable to our common shareholders was $1.3 billion or $7.43 per diluted common share, compared to $1.6 billion or $8.85 per diluted common share for the same period in 2023, representing a decrease of $250.8 million or $1.42 per diluted common share. The decrease is due primarily to (i) a $166.3 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense and (ii) a $82.7 million increase in interest expense, and (iii) a $40.5 million increase in foreign currency exchange losses primarily associated with our Euro denominated notes payable, partially offset by (iv) a $64.6 million increase in self-storage net operating income.

The $64.6 million increase in self-storage net operating income in the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in 2023 is a result of a $104.6 million increase attributable to our Non-Same Store Facilities, partially offset by a $40.0 million decrease attributable to our Same Store Facilities. Revenues for the Same Store Facilities decreased 0.8% or $21.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in 2023, due primarily to a decline in occupancy. Cost of operations for the Same Store Facilities increased by 2.8% or $18.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in 2023, due primarily to increased marketing expense, property tax expense and repairs and maintenance expense, partially offset by decreased on-site property manager payroll, utility expense and centralized management costs. The increase in net operating income of $104.6 million for the Non-Same Store Facilities is due primarily to the impact of facilities acquired in 2023.

Funds from Operations (“FFO”) and FFO per share are non-GAAP measures defined by Nareit. We believe that FFO and FFO per share are useful to REIT investors and analysts in measuring our performance because Nareit’s definition of FFO excludes items included in net income that do not relate to or are not indicative of our operating and financial performance. FFO represents net income before real estate-related depreciation and amortization, which is excluded because it is based upon historical costs and assumes that building values diminish ratably over time, while we believe that real estate values fluctuate due to market conditions. FFO also excludes gains or losses on sale of real estate assets and real estate impairment charges, which are also based upon historical costs and are impacted by historical depreciation. FFO and FFO per share are not a substitute for net income or earnings per share. FFO is not a substitute for net cash flow in evaluating our liquidity or ability to pay dividends, because it excludes investing and financing activities presented on our consolidated statements of cash flows. In addition, other REITs may compute these measures differently, so comparisons among REITs may not be helpful.

We also present “Core FFO” and “Core FFO per share,” non-GAAP measures that represent FFO and FFO per share excluding the impact of (i) foreign currency exchange gains and losses, (ii) charges related to the redemption of preferred securities, and (iii) certain other non-cash and/or nonrecurring income or expense items primarily representing, with respect to the periods presented below, the impact of loss contingencies and resolutions, casualties, due diligence costs incurred in pursuit of strategic transactions, unrealized gain on private equity investments, UPREIT reorganization costs, Simply integration costs, amortization of acquired non real estate-related intangibles, and our equity share of deferred tax benefits of a change in tax status, unrealized gain on derivatives and Lok’nStore integration costs from our equity investee. We review Core FFO and Core FFO per share to evaluate our ongoing operating performance, and we believe they are used by investors and REIT analysts in a similar manner. However, Core FFO and Core FFO per share are not substitutes for net income and net income per share. Because other REITs may not compute Core FFO or Core FFO per share in the same manner as we do, may not use the same terminology, or may not present such measures, Core FFO and Core FFO per share may not be comparable among REITs.

The Same Store Facilities consist of facilities that have been owned and operated on a stabilized level of occupancy, revenues, and cost of operations since January 1, 2022. Our Same Store Facilities did not change from June 30, 2024. The composition of our Same Store Facilities allows us to more effectively evaluate the ongoing performance of our self-storage portfolio in 2022, 2023, and 2024 and exclude the impact of fill-up of unstabilized facilities, which can significantly affect operating trends. We believe the Same Store Facilities information is used by investors and analysts in a similar manner. However, because other REITs may not compute Same Store Facilities in the same manner as we do, may not use the same terminology, or may not present such a measure, Same Store Facilities may not be comparable among REITs. The following table summarizes the historical operating results (for all periods presented) of these 2,507 facilities (170.0 million net rentable square feet) that represent approximately 77% of the aggregate net rentable square feet of our U.S. consolidated self-storage portfolio at September 30, 2024 (unaudited):

(d)Realized annual rent per occupied square foot is computed by dividing annualized rental income, before late charges and administrative fees, by the weighted average occupied square feet for the period. Realized annual rent per available square foot (“REVPAF”) is computed by dividing annualized rental income, before late charges and administrative fees, by the total available rentable square feet for the period. These measures exclude late charges and administrative fees in order to provide a better measure of our ongoing level of revenue. Late charges are dependent upon the level of delinquency, and administrative fees are dependent upon the level of move-ins. In addition, the rates charged for late charges and administrative fees can vary independently from rental rates. These measures take into consideration promotional discounts, which reduce rental income.

In addition to the 2,507 Same Store Facilities, we have 546 facilities that were not stabilized with respect to occupancies, revenues, or cost of operations since January 1, 2022 or that we did not own as of January 1, 2022, including 243 facilities that were acquired, 43 newly developed facilities, 84 facilities that have been expanded or are targeted for expansion, and 176 facilities that are unstabilized because they are undergoing fill-up or were damaged in casualty events (collectively, the “Non-Same Store Facilities”). Operating data, metrics, and further commentary with respect to these facilities, including detail by vintage, are included in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” under “Analysis of Net Income – Self-Storage Operations” in our September 30, 2024 Form 10-Q.

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, we opened one newly developed facility and completed various expansion projects, which together contributed 0.5 million net rentable square feet (0.1 million each in Arizona, Florida, Maryland, Nevada, and New York) at a cost of $142.6 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we opened four newly developed facilities and various expansion projects, which together contributed 1.1 million net rentable square feet (0.4 million in California, 0.2 million in Florida, and 0.1 million each in Arizona, Maryland, Nevada, New York, and Texas) at a cost of $262.5 million. At September 30, 2024, we had various facilities in development (expected to contribute 2.3 million net rentable square feet) estimated to cost $426.7 million and various expansion projects (expected to contribute 1.7 million net rentable square feet) estimated to cost $285.8 million. Our aggregate 4.0 million net rentable square foot pipeline of development and expansion facilities includes 1.3 million in Florida, 1.2 million in California, 0.6 million in Texas, and 0.1 million each in Arizona, Colorado, Georgia, Hawaii, Maryland, Nevada, New York, South Carolina, and Virginia. The remaining $401.9 million of development costs for these projects are expected to be incurred primarily in the next 18 to 24 months.

Set forth below are our current expectations and prior expectations as of July 30, 2024 with respect to full year 2024 Core FFO per share and certain underlying assumptions. In reliance on the exception provided by applicable SEC rules, we do not provide guidance for GAAP net income per share, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, or a reconciliation of 2024 Core FFO per share to GAAP net income per share because we are unable to reasonably predict the following items which are included in GAAP net income: (i) gains or losses on sales of real estate investments, (ii) foreign currency exchange gains and losses, (iii) charges related to the redemption of preferred securities, and (iv) certain other significant non-cash and/or nonrecurring income or expense items. The actual amounts for any and all of these items could significantly impact our 2024 GAAP net income and, as disclosed in our historical financial results, have significantly impacted GAAP net income in prior periods.

(a)FAD represents FFO adjusted to exclude certain non-cash charges and to deduct recurring capital expenditures, which do not include capital expenditures for energy efficiencies including LED lighting and solar panel installation. We utilize FAD in evaluating our ongoing cash flow available for investment, debt repayment, and common distributions. We believe investors and analysts utilize FAD in a similar manner. FAD is not a substitute for GAAP net cash flow in evaluating our liquidity or ability to pay dividends, because it excludes investing and financing activities presented on our statements of cash flows. In addition, other REITs may compute this measure differently, so comparisons among REITs may not be helpful.

(a)Net operating income or “NOI” is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact of depreciation and amortization expense, which is based upon historical costs and assumes that building values diminish ratably over time, while we believe that real estate values fluctuate due to market conditions. We utilize NOI in determining current property values, evaluating property performance, and evaluating operating trends. We believe that investors and analysts utilize NOI in a similar manner. NOI is not a substitute for net income, operating cash flow, or other related GAAP financial measures, in evaluating our operating results. This table reconciles from NOI for our self-storage facilities to the net income presented on our income statement.
