W. P. Carey Inc. 3/31/2021 Earnings Release 8-K – 1

MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY

“The first quarter provided a strong start to the year on a number of fronts — most notably the strength of our investment activity — allowing us to raise our guidance,” said Jason Fox, Chief Executive Officer of W. P. Carey. “Furthermore, the debt issuances we completed during the first quarter locked in our lowest ever coupon rates, both in the U.S. and Europe. Given our cost of capital and liquidity, we’re poised to accelerate externally driven growth, executing on the strongest pipeline we’ve seen in years. And with one of the best-positioned net lease portfolios for embedded rent growth, we could see further long-term upside in an inflationary environment.”

QUARTERLY FINANCIAL RESULTS

Revenues

•Total Company: Revenues, including reimbursable costs, for the 2021 first quarter totaled $311.2 million, up 0.7% from $309.0 million for the 2020 first quarter.

•Real Estate: Real Estate revenues, including reimbursable costs, for the 2021 first quarter were $306.2 million, up 3.9% from $294.6 million for the 2020 first quarter, due primarily to higher lease revenues resulting from net acquisitions and rent escalations, as well as a stronger euro relative to the U.S. dollar. Lease termination and other revenues were higher during the 2020 first quarter, which included a significant lease-related recovery. Lower operating revenues reflected the disposition of a hotel operating property during the 2020 first quarter and lower occupancy at the Company’s remaining hotel operating property due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

•Investment Management: Investment Management revenues, including reimbursable costs, for the 2021 first quarter were $5.0 million, down 65.3% from $14.4 million for the 2020 first quarter, due primarily to lower asset management revenues and reimbursable costs from affiliates resulting from the management internalization by Carey Watermark Investors Incorporated (CWI 1) and Carey Watermark Investors 2 Incorporated (CWI 2) completed during the 2020 second quarter.

W. P. Carey Inc. 3/31/2021 Earnings Release 8-K – 2

Net Income Attributable to W. P. Carey

•Net income attributable to W. P. Carey for the 2021 first quarter was $51.6 million, down 21.9% from $66.1 million for the 2020 first quarter. Net income from Real Estate attributable to W. P. Carey was $44.6 million, which decreased due primarily to a loss on extinguishment of debt totaling $59.9 million (comprised largely of prepayment penalties for mortgage loan prepayments and a “make-whole” amount paid to redeem the €500 million of 2.0% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2023) and a deferred tax benefit of $37.2 million related to the Company’s investment in shares of Lineage Logistics (a cold storage REIT) recognized during the prior year period, partly offset by a mark-to-market gain of $23.4 million and a cash dividend of $6.4 million for the Company’s investment in shares of Lineage Logistics, and the impact of net acquisitions. Net income from Investment Management attributable to W. P. Carey was $7.0 million, which increased due primarily to impairment charges totaling $47.1 million recognized on the Company’s equity investments in CWI 1 and CWI 2 during the prior year period, partly offset by the cessation of Investment Management revenues previously earned from CWI 1 and CWI 2. Segment net income also reflects the full allocation of certain operating expenses to the Real Estate segment commencing in the 2020 second quarter.

Adjusted Funds from Operations (AFFO)

•AFFO for the 2021 first quarter was $1.22 per diluted share, down 2.4% from $1.25 per diluted share for the 2020 first quarter driven primarily by a reduction in Investment Management revenues, reflecting the Company’s continued move out of this business. The Real Estate segment generated AFFO (Real Estate AFFO) of $1.19 per diluted share, reflecting the accretive impact of net investment activity and rent escalations as well as a cash dividend received from the Company’s investment in shares of Lineage Logistics, which were partly offset by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on rents and lower Lease termination and other revenues due to a significant lease-related recovery in the 2020 first quarter. Segment AFFO also reflects the full allocation of general and administrative expenses to the Real Estate segment commencing in the 2020 second quarter.

Note: Further information concerning AFFO and Real Estate AFFO, which are both non-GAAP supplemental performance metrics, is presented in the accompanying tables and related notes.

Dividend

•As previously announced, on March 11, 2021 the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $1.048 per share, equivalent to an annualized dividend rate of $4.192 per share. The dividend was paid on April 15, 2021 to stockholders of record as of March 31, 2021.

AFFO GUIDANCE

•The Company has raised and narrowed its guidance range for the 2021 full year and currently expects to report total AFFO of between $4.87 and $4.97 per diluted share, including Real Estate AFFO of between $4.74 and $4.84 per diluted share, based on the following key assumptions:

(i) investments for the Company's Real Estate portfolio of between $1.25 billion and $1.75 billion, which has been revised higher;

(ii) dispositions from the Company's Real Estate portfolio of between $250 million and $350 million, which is unchanged; and

(iii) total general and administrative expenses of between $79 million and $83 million, which is unchanged.

Note: The Company does not provide guidance on net income. The Company only provides guidance on total AFFO (and Real Estate AFFO) and does not provide a reconciliation of this forward-looking non-GAAP guidance to net income due to the inherent difficulty in quantifying certain items necessary to provide such reconciliation as a result of their unknown effect, timing and potential significance. Examples of such items include impairments of assets, gains and losses from sales of assets, and depreciation and amortization from new acquisitions.

Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements and COVID-19 Update on Rent Collections

Certain of the matters discussed in this communication constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Exchange Act of 1934, both as amended by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements regarding the intent, belief or expectations of W. P. Carey and can be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” “assume,” “outlook,” “seek,” “plan,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “forecast” and other comparable terms. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements made by Mr. Fox regarding our pipeline and externally driven growth, as well as the impact of inflation on future rent growth. These statements are based on the current expectations of our management and it is important to note that our actual results could be materially different from those projected in such forward-looking statements. There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Other unknown or unpredictable risks or uncertainties, like the risks related to the effects of pandemics and global outbreaks of contagious diseases or the fear of such outbreaks (such as the current COVID-19 pandemic) and those additional risk factors discussed in reports that we have filed with the SEC could also have material adverse effects on our future results, performance or achievements. Discussions of some of these other important factors and assumptions are contained in W. P. Carey’s filings with the SEC and are available at the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov, including Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in W. P. Carey’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. In light of these risks, uncertainties, assumptions and factors, the forward-looking events discussed in this communication may not occur. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this communication, unless noted otherwise. Except as required under the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations of the SEC, W. P. Carey does not undertake any obligation to release publicly any revisions to the forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this communication or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

In addition, given the significant uncertainty regarding the duration and severity of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company is unable to predict its tenants’ continued ability to pay rent. Therefore, information provided regarding historical rent collections should not serve as an indication of expected future rent collections.

Amount for the three months ended December 31, 2020 includes a non-cash other-than-temporary impairment charge of $8.3 million recognized on another equity method investment in real estate.

(c)Equity income, including amounts that are not typically recognized for FFO and AFFO, is recognized within Equity in earnings of equity method investments in the Managed Programs and real estate on the consolidated statements of income. This represents adjustments to equity income to reflect FFO and AFFO on a pro rata basis.

(d)Adjustments disclosed elsewhere in this reconciliation are on a consolidated basis. This adjustment reflects our FFO or AFFO on a pro rata basis.

(e)FFO and AFFO are non-GAAP measures. See below for a description of FFO and AFFO.

(f)Adjustment amounts for the three months ended March 31, 2021 are primarily comprised of loss on extinguishment of debt of $(59.9) million (of which $(31.7) million mainly comprised fees for the prepayment of certain non-recourse mortgage loans and $(28.2) million mainly comprised a “make-whole” amount paid in connection with the redemption of €500 million of 2.0% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2023 in March 2021), a mark-to-market unrealized gain for our investment in Lineage Logistics of $23.4 million and net loss on foreign currency transactions of $(7.5) million. Amounts from period to period will not be comparable due to unpredictable fluctuations in these gains and losses.

(g)Amount for the three months ended March 31, 2020 includes a non-cash deferred tax benefit of $37.2 million as a result of the release of a deferred tax liability relating to our investment in shares of Lineage Logistics, which converted to a REIT during that period and is therefore no longer subject to federal and state income taxes.

Non-GAAP Financial Disclosure

Funds from Operations (FFO) and Adjusted Funds from Operations (AFFO)

Due to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, as discussed below, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (NAREIT), an industry trade group, has promulgated a non-GAAP measure known as FFO, which we believe to be an appropriate supplemental measure, when used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP, to reflect the operating performance of a REIT. The use of FFO is recommended by the REIT industry as a supplemental non-GAAP measure. FFO is not equivalent to, nor a substitute for, net income or loss as determined under GAAP.

We define FFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the standards established by the White Paper on FFO approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, as restated in December 2018. The White Paper defines FFO as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from sales of property, impairment charges on real estate, gains or losses on changes in control of interests in real estate and depreciation and amortization from real estate assets; and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments are calculated to reflect FFO.

We also modify the NAREIT computation of FFO to adjust GAAP net income for certain non-cash charges, such as amortization of real estate-related intangibles, deferred income tax benefits and expenses, straight-line rent and related reserves, other non-cash rent adjustments, non-cash allowance for credit losses on loans receivable and direct financing leases, stock-based compensation, non-cash environmental accretion expense, amortization of discounts and premiums on debt and amortization of deferred financing costs. Our assessment of our operations is focused on long-term sustainability and not on such non-cash items, which may cause short-term fluctuations in net income but have no impact on cash flows. Additionally, we exclude non-core income and expenses, such as gains or losses from extinguishment of debt and merger and acquisition expenses. We also exclude realized and unrealized gains/losses on foreign currency exchange transactions (other than those realized on the settlement of foreign currency derivatives), which are not considered fundamental attributes of our business plan and do not affect our overall long-term operating performance. We refer to our modified definition of FFO as AFFO. We exclude these items from GAAP net income to arrive at AFFO as they are not the primary drivers in our decision-making process and excluding these items provides investors a view of our portfolio performance over time and makes it more comparable to other REITs that are currently not engaged in acquisitions, mergers and restructuring, which are not part of our normal business operations. AFFO also reflects adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments. We use AFFO as one measure of our operating performance when we formulate corporate goals, evaluate the effectiveness of our strategies and determine executive compensation.

We believe that AFFO is a useful supplemental measure for investors to consider as we believe it will help them to better assess the sustainability of our operating performance without the potentially distorting impact of these short-term fluctuations. However, there are limits on the usefulness of AFFO to investors. For example, impairment charges and unrealized foreign currency losses that we exclude may become actual realized losses upon the ultimate disposition of the properties in the form of lower cash proceeds or other considerations. We use our FFO and AFFO measures as supplemental financial measures of operating performance. We do not use our FFO and AFFO measures as, nor should they be considered to be, alternatives to net income computed under GAAP, or as alternatives to net cash provided by operating activities computed under GAAP, or as indicators of our ability to fund our cash needs.

________

(a)Beginning with the second quarter of 2020, general and administrative expenses attributed to our Investment Management segment are comprised of the incremental costs of providing services to the Managed Programs, which are fully reimbursed by those funds (resulting in no net expense for us). All other general and administrative expenses are attributed to our Real Estate segment. In addition, beginning with the second quarter of 2020, stock-based compensation expense and depreciation and amortization expense are fully recognized within our Real Estate segment. In light of the termination of the advisory agreements with CWI 1 and CWI 2 in connection with the WLT management internalization, we now view essentially all assets, liabilities and operational expenses as part of our Real Estate segment, other than incremental activities that are expected to wind down as we manage CPA:18 – Global and CESH through the end of their respective life cycles.

(b)Amount for the three months ended March 31, 2021 includes a non-cash other-than-temporary impairment charge of $6.8 million recognized on an equity method investment in real estate. Amount for the three months ended December 31, 2020 includes a non-cash other-than-temporary impairment charge of $8.3 million recognized on another equity method investment in real estate.

________

(a)Amount for the three months ended March 31, 2021 includes a non-cash other-than-temporary impairment charge of $6.8 million recognized on an equity method investment in real estate. Amount for the three months ended December 31, 2020 includes a non-cash other-than-temporary impairment charge of $8.3 million recognized on another equity method investment in real estate.

(b)Amount for the three months ended June 30, 2020 includes a non-cash net gain of $33.0 million (inclusive of $9.9 million attributable to the redemption of a noncontrolling interest that the former subadvisors for CWI 1 and CWI 2 held in the special general partner interests) recognized in connection with consideration received at closing of the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger.

(c)Amount for the three months ended March 31, 2020 includes non-cash other-than-temporary impairment charges totaling $47.1 million recognized on our former equity investments in CWI 1 and CWI 2.

(d)Equity income, including amounts that are not typically recognized for FFO and AFFO, is recognized within Equity in earnings of equity method investments in the Managed Programs and real estate on the consolidated statements of income. This represents adjustments to equity income to reflect FFO and AFFO on a pro rata basis.

(e)Adjustments disclosed elsewhere in this reconciliation are on a consolidated basis. This adjustment reflects our FFO or AFFO on a pro rata basis.

(f)FFO and AFFO are non-GAAP measures. See the Disclosures Regarding Non-GAAP and Other Metrics section in the Appendix for a description of our non-GAAP measures.

(g)Amount for the three months ended March 31, 2021 is primarily comprised of loss on extinguishment of debt of $(59.9) million (of which $(31.7) million mainly comprised fees for the prepayment of certain non-recourse mortgage loans and $(28.2) million mainly comprised a “make-whole” amount paid in connection with the redemption of €500 million of 2.0% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2023 in March 2021), a mark-to-market unrealized gain for our investment in shares of Lineage Logistics of $23.4 million and net loss on foreign currency transactions of $(7.5) million. Amounts from period to period will not be comparable due to unpredictable fluctuations in these gains and losses.

(h)Amount for the three months ended June 30, 2020 includes one-time taxes incurred upon the recognition of taxable income associated with the accelerated vesting of shares previously issued by CWI 1 and CWI 2 to us for asset management services performed, in connection with the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger.

(i)Amount for the three months ended March 31, 2020 includes a non-cash deferred tax benefit of $37.2 million as a result of the release of a deferred tax liability relating to our investment in shares of Lineage Logistics, which converted to a REIT during that period and is therefore no longer subject to federal and state income taxes.

(k)Beginning with the first quarter of 2020, this adjustment includes distributions received from CWI 1 and CWI 2 (through April 13, 2020, the date of the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger) and from WLT (after April 13, 2020) in place of our pro rata share of net income from our ownership of shares of CWI 1, CWI 2, and WLT, as applicable. We did not receive any such distributions during 2021 or 2020, due to the adverse effect of the COVID-19 pandemic.

________

(a)Amount for the three months ended March 31, 2021 includes a non-cash other-than-temporary impairment charge of $6.8 million recognized on an equity method investment in real estate. Amount for the three months ended December 31, 2020 includes a non-cash other-than-temporary impairment charge of $8.3 million recognized on another equity method investment in real estate.

(b)Equity income, including amounts that are not typically recognized for FFO and AFFO, is recognized within Equity in earnings of equity method investments in the Managed Programs and real estate on the consolidated statements of income. This represents adjustments to equity income to reflect FFO and AFFO on a pro rata basis.

(c)Adjustments disclosed elsewhere in this reconciliation are on a consolidated basis. This adjustment reflects our FFO or AFFO on a pro rata basis.

(d)FFO and AFFO are non-GAAP measures. See the Disclosures Regarding Non-GAAP and Other Metrics section in the Appendix for a description of our non-GAAP measures.

(e)Amount for the three months ended March 31, 2021 is primarily comprised of loss on extinguishment of debt of $(59.9) million (of which $(31.7) million mainly comprised fees for the prepayment of certain non-recourse mortgage loans and $(28.2) million mainly comprised a “make-whole” amount paid in connection with the redemption of €500 million of 2.0% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2023 in March 2021), a mark-to-market unrealized gain for our investment in shares of Lineage Logistics of $23.4 million and net loss on foreign currency transactions of $(7.5) million. Amounts from period to period will not be comparable due to unpredictable fluctuations in these gains and losses.

(f)Amount for the three months ended March 31, 2020 includes a non-cash deferred tax benefit of $37.2 million as a result of the release of a deferred tax liability relating to our investment in shares of Lineage Logistics, which converted to a REIT during that period and is therefore no longer subject to federal and state income taxes.

(g)Subsequent to the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger on April 13, 2020, this adjustment includes distributions received from WLT in place of our pro rata share of net income from our ownership of shares of WLT. We did not receive any such distributions during 2021 or 2020, due to the adverse effect of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Disclosures Regarding Non-GAAP and Other Metrics

Non-GAAP Financial Disclosures

FFO and AFFO

Due to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, as discussed below, NAREIT, an industry trade group, has promulgated a non-GAAP measure known as FFO, which we believe to be an appropriate supplemental measure, when used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP, to reflect the operating performance of a REIT. The use of FFO is recommended by the REIT industry as a supplemental non-GAAP measure. FFO is not equivalent to, nor a substitute for, net income or loss as determined under GAAP.

We define FFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the standards established by the White Paper on FFO approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, as restated in December 2018. The White Paper defines FFO as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from sales of property, impairment charges on real estate, gains or losses on changes in control of interests in real estate and depreciation and amortization from real estate assets; and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments are calculated to reflect FFO.

We also modify the NAREIT computation of FFO to adjust GAAP net income for certain non-cash charges, such as amortization of real estate-related intangibles, deferred income tax benefits and expenses, straight-line rent and related reserves, other non-cash rent adjustments, non-cash allowance for credit losses on loans receivable and direct financing leases, stock-based compensation, non-cash environmental accretion expense, amortization of discounts and premiums on debt and amortization of deferred financing costs. Our assessment of our operations is focused on long-term sustainability and not on such non-cash items, which may cause short-term fluctuations in net income but have no impact on cash flows. Additionally, we exclude non-core income and expenses, such as gains or losses from extinguishment of debt and merger and acquisition expenses. We also exclude realized and unrealized gains/losses on foreign currency exchange transactions (other than those realized on the settlement of foreign currency derivatives), which are not considered fundamental attributes of our business plan and do not affect our overall long-term operating performance. We refer to our modified definition of FFO as AFFO. We exclude these items from GAAP net income to arrive at AFFO as they are not the primary drivers in our decision-making process and excluding these items provides investors a view of our portfolio performance over time and makes it more comparable to other REITs that are currently not engaged in acquisitions, mergers and restructuring, which are not part of our normal business operations. AFFO also reflects adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments. We use AFFO as one measure of our operating performance when we formulate corporate goals, evaluate the effectiveness of our strategies and determine executive compensation.

We believe that AFFO is a useful supplemental measure for investors to consider as we believe it will help them to better assess the sustainability of our operating performance without the potentially distorting impact of these short-term fluctuations. However, there are limits on the usefulness of AFFO to investors. For example, impairment charges and unrealized foreign currency losses that we exclude may become actual realized losses upon the ultimate disposition of the properties in the form of lower cash proceeds or other considerations. We use our FFO and AFFO measures as supplemental financial measures of operating performance. We do not use our FFO and AFFO measures as, nor should they be considered to be, alternatives to net income computed under GAAP, or as alternatives to net cash provided by operating activities computed under GAAP, or as indicators of our ability to fund our cash needs.

Same Store Pro Rata Rental Income

Same store pro rata rental income is a non-GAAP financial measure that is intended to reflect the performance of our net leased properties. We define this as contractual rents from our leased properties. Same store rental income excludes reimbursable tenant costs, amortization of intangibles and straight-line rent adjustments that are included in GAAP lease revenues. We present same store rental income on a pro rata basis to account for our share of income related to unconsolidated joint ventures and noncontrolling interests. We believe that same store pro rata rental income is a helpful measure that both investors and management can use to evaluate the financial performance of our leased properties. Same store pro rata rental income should not be considered as an alternative to lease revenues as an indication of our financial performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity or our ability to fund all needs. The method by which we calculate and present same store rental income and/or same store pro rata rental income may not be directly comparable to the way other REITs present such metrics.

Pro Rata Cash NOI

Cash net operating income (“cash NOI”) is a non-GAAP financial measure that is intended to reflect the performance of our net leased and operating properties. We define cash NOI as cash rents from our leased and operating properties less non-reimbursable property expenses. Cash NOI excludes amortization of intangibles and straight-line rent adjustments that are included in GAAP lease revenues. We present cash NOI on a pro rata basis (“pro rata cash NOI”) to account for our share of income related to unconsolidated joint ventures and noncontrolling interests. We believe that pro rata cash NOI is a helpful measure that both investors and management can use to evaluate the financial performance of our leased and operating properties and it allows for comparison of our operating performance between periods and to other REITs. Pro rata cash NOI should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indication of our financial performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity or our ability to fund all needs. The method by which we calculate and present cash NOI and/or pro rata cash NOI may not be directly comparable to the way other REITs present such metrics.

Appendix – First Quarter 2021

Normalized Pro Rata Cash NOI

Normalized pro rata cash NOI is pro rata cash NOI as defined above adjusted primarily to exclude our pro rata share of cash NOI from properties disposed of during the most recent quarter and to include a full quarter of pro rata cash NOI related to properties acquired or capital investments and commitments completed during the period, as applicable. We believe this measure provides a helpful representation of our net operating income from our in-place leased and operating properties.

Adjusted EBITDA

We believe that EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure to investors and analysts for assessing the performance of our business segments because (i) it removes the impact of our capital structure from our operating results and (ii) it is helpful when comparing our operating performance to that of companies in our industry without regard to such items, which can vary substantially from company to company. Adjusted EBITDA as disclosed represents EBITDA, modified to include other adjustments to GAAP net income for certain non-cash charges, such as impairments, non-cash rent adjustments and unrealized gains and losses from our hedging activity. Additionally, we exclude gains and losses on sale of real estate, which are not considered fundamental attributes of our business plans and do not affect our overall long-term operating performance. We exclude these items from adjusted EBITDA as they are not the primary drivers in our decision-making process. Adjusted EBITDA reflects adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments. Our assessment of our operations is focused on long-term sustainability and not on such non-cash and non-core items, which may cause short-term fluctuations in net income but have no impact on cash flows. We believe that adjusted EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure to investors and analysts, although it does not represent net income that is computed in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income or as an indicator of our financial performance. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA as calculated by us may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Cash Interest Expense

Cash interest expense is a non-GAAP financial measure equal to interest expense calculated in accordance with GAAP, plus capitalized interest and other non-cash amortization expense, less amortization of deferred financing costs and debt premiums/discounts, adjusted for pro rata ownership. See the definition of cash interest expense coverage ratio below for a reconciliation of cash interest expense to its most directly compared GAAP measure, interest expense.

Cash Interest Expense Coverage Ratio

Cash interest expense coverage ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure representing the ratio of Adjusted EBITDA to cash interest expense on a trailing 12 months basis. We believe this ratio is useful to investors as a supplemental measure of our ability to satisfy fixed interest expense obligations. Cash interest expense for the trailing 12 months as of March 31, 2021 is equal to $206.2 million, comprised of interest expense calculated in accordance with GAAP ($209.2 million), plus capitalized interest ($3.1 million) and other non-cash amortization expense ($0.9 million), less amortization of deferred financing costs and debt premiums/discounts ($12.5 million), adjusted for pro rata ownership ($5.6 million)

Other Metrics

Pro Rata Metrics

This supplemental package contains certain metrics prepared under the pro rata consolidation method. We refer to these metrics as pro rata metrics. We have a number of investments, usually with our affiliates, in which our economic ownership is less than 100%. Under the full consolidation method, we report 100% of the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of those investments that are deemed to be under our control or for which we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary, even if our ownership is less than 100%. Also, for all other jointly owned investments, which we do not control, we report our net investment and our net income or loss from that investment. Under the pro rata consolidation method, we present our proportionate share, based on our economic ownership of these jointly owned investments, of the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of those investments. Multiplying each of our jointly owned investments’ financial statement line items by our percentage ownership and adding or subtracting those amounts from our totals, as applicable, may not accurately depict the legal and economic implications of holding an ownership interest of less than 100% in our jointly owned investments.

ABR

ABR represents contractual minimum annualized base rent for our net-leased properties and reflects exchange rates as of March 31, 2021. If there is a rent abatement, we annualize the first monthly contractual base rent following the free rent period. ABR is not applicable to operating properties and is presented on a pro rata basis.
