TAMPA, FL (April 2, 2020) - Carter Validus Mission Critical REIT II, Inc., or the Company, a public, non-traded real estate investment trust focused on net-leased data center and healthcare properties, announced operating results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2019.
Quarter Ended December 31, 2019 and Subsequent Highlights
• | Net income attributable to common stockholders totaled $1.8 million. |
• | Net operating income, or NOI, totaled $58.5 million. |
• | Funds from operations, or FFO, attributable to common stockholders equaled $33.7 million. |
• | Modified funds from operations, or MFFO, attributable to common stockholders equaled $27.3 million. |
• | Adjusted funds from operations, or AFFO, attributable to common stockholders equaled $28.3 million. |
• | On October 4, 2019, the Company completed a merger transaction with Carter Validus Mission Critical REIT, Inc., or CVREIT, for total consideration transferred to stockholders of CVREIT of $952.8 million, consisting of $178.8 million in cash and $774.0 million in equity. Additionally, the Company paid off CVREIT's outstanding debt in the amount of $248.6 million at the time of the merger. |
• | The Company purchased 62 healthcare properties, consisting of 60 properties acquired in the merger and two development properties, for approximately $1.2 billion. |
• | On November 26, 2019, the Company sold one of three buildings and a portion of land related to one healthcare property for a sale price of $3.1 million and generated net proceeds of $2.9 million. |

Michael Seton, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and President, stated, "We are pleased to report that our same store operations demonstrated sustained growth in the fourth quarter. We successfully completed the integration of the properties acquired in the merger with CVREIT and are beginning to realize the benefits of an increase in size and diversity of our portfolio demonstrated by an increase in our revenues, NOI and FFO compared to the fourth quarter of 2018, however, our net income was adversely impacted by the impairment of a vacant property, which we are marketing for sale or lease. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the global COVID-19 pandemic created a dramatic shift in the economy, our lives and the business landscape, consequently, we are closely monitoring the possible effects on our portfolio and proactively responding when and as appropriate. While it is impossible to anticipate the duration or severity of the pandemic and the possible impacts to our business, we will remain communicative as the situation evolves and keep our stockholders, tenants and business partners in our thoughts during this difficult time.”
An explanation of FFO, MFFO, AFFO, NOI and Tenant Reimbursements as well as reconciliations of such non-GAAP financial measures, which should not be considered alternatives to GAAP measures, to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures, is included at the end of this release.
Financial Results
Quarter Ended December 31, 2019, Compared to Quarter Ended December 31, 2018
• | Net income attributable to common stockholders was $1.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2019, a decrease of 72%, compared to net income attributable to common stockholders of $6.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2018. |
• | FFO attributable to common stockholders was $33.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2019, an increase of 54%, compared to $21.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2018. |
• | MFFO attributable to common stockholders was $27.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2019, an increase of 55%, compared to $17.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2018. |
• | AFFO attributable to common stockholders was $28.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2019, an increase of 55%, compared to $18.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2018. |
The decrease in net income attributable to common stockholders during the periods presented above is primarily the result of the impairment loss recorded on one real estate healthcare property based on a letter of intent from a prospective buyer to purchase the property during the quarter ended December 31, 2019, coupled with an increase in the weighted average outstanding principal balance on the credit facility. The write-off and the increase in the interest expense were partially offset by an increase in rental revenues from the acquisition of 67 real estate properties during 2019.
The increases in FFO, MFFO and AFFO during the periods presented above are primarily the result of 67 property acquisitions consisting of 60 properties acquired in the merger and two development properties during the quarter ended December 31, 2019 (the impairment loss is removed when calculating these metrics).
Year Ended December 31, 2019, Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2018
• | Net income attributable to common stockholders was $2.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, a decrease of 90%, compared to net income attributable to common stockholders of $28.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. |
• | FFO attributable to common stockholders was $97.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, an increase of 12% compared to $87.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. |
• | MFFO attributable to common stockholders was $79.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, an increase of 15%, compared to $69.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. |
• | AFFO attributable to common stockholders was $82.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, an increase of 14% compared to $72.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. |
The reduction in net income attributable to common stockholders during the periods presented above is primarily the result of the impairment losses on two healthcare properties recorded in the third quarter of 2019 in the amount of $13.0 million due to terminating the leases with two tenants and in the fourth quarter of 2019 in the amount of $8.0 million based on a letter of intent from a prospective buyer to purchase the property. The Company wrote off straight-line rent, in-place lease intangible assets and below-market lease intangible liabilities related to the leases in an aggregate amount of $3.5 million. The Company also wrote off deferred
financing costs related to its bridge facility commitment, which was terminated on August 7, 2019. Additionally, interest on credit facility increased due to an increase in the weighted average outstanding principal balance on the credit facility. The write-offs and the increase in interest on credit facility were partially offset by an increase in rental revenues from the acquisition of 67 real estate properties during 2019.
The increase in FFO during the periods presented above was the result of the same factors, excluding the impairment loss on real estate and in-place lease write offs, which are added back when calculating this metric. Straight-line rent and below-market lease write-offs, which are a part of rental revenue, were adjusted when calculating MFFO. AFFO was further adjusted for amortization of deferred financing costs and stock-based compensation.
Operating Results

Use of Non-GAAP Information
Net operating income, a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined as rental revenues, less rental expenses, which excludes depreciation and amortization, impairment loss on real estate, general and administrative expenses, asset management fees, gain on real estate disposition and interest and other expense, net. The Company believes that net operating income serves as a useful supplement to net income because it allows investors and management to measure unlevered property-level operating results and to compare operating results to the operating results of other real estate companies between periods on a consistent basis. Net operating income should not be considered as an alternative to net income determined in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of financial performance, and accordingly, the Company believes that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of the consolidated historical operating results, net operating income should be examined in conjunction with net income as presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements and data included on the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 27, 2020.
The following are reconciliations of net income attributable to common stockholders, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, to net operating income for the three months and years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 (amounts in thousands):

The Company generates its net operating income from property operations. In order to evaluate the overall portfolio, management analyzes the net operating income of same store properties. The Company defines "same store properties" as operating properties that were owned and operated for the entirety of both calendar periods being compared and excludes properties under development. Legacy CVREIT property activities represent amounts recorded since the merger transaction. By evaluating the property net operating income of the same store properties, management is able to monitor the operations of the Company's existing properties for comparable periods to measure the performance of the current portfolio and determine the effects of new acquisitions on net income.
The following table presents same store and non-same store components of net operating income for the three months and years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 (amounts in thousands):

Funds From Operations (“FFO”), Modified Funds From Operations (“MFFO”) and Adjusted Funds From Operations ("AFFO") are non-GAAP financial measures. FFO is calculated using the NAREIT definition: net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property and asset impairment write-downs, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. In addition to FFO, the company uses MFFO as a supplemental financial performance measure of our operating performance and believe it is frequently used by investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of non-traded REITs. The Company’s MFFO calculation complies with the Institute of Portfolio Alternative’s (“IPA”) Practice Guideline by excluding amortization of above- and below-market leases, along with the right-of-use assets - operating leases and operating lease liabilities, resulting from above- and below- market ground leases, amounts related to straight-line rents and ineffectiveness of interest rate swaps. The other adjustments included in the IPA’s Practice Guideline are not applicable to the Company. In addition to FFO and MFFO, the Company uses AFFO as a supplemental financial performance metric to further evaluate its operating performance. The Company calculates AFFO, a non-GAAP measure, by further adjusting MFFO for the following items included in the determination of GAAP net income: amortization of deferred financing costs and stock-based compensation, after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect AFFO on the same basis. Other REITs report AFFO, however, other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating AFFO and, accordingly, the Company’s AFFO may not be comparable to other REITs.
FFO, MFFO and AFFO are not intended to represent cash flow from operations for the period and are only intended to provide an additional measure of performance by adjusting for the effect of certain items noted above. The Company’s management, along with others in the real estate industry, consider FFO, MFFO and AFFO to be appropriate supplemental measures of a REIT’s operating performance because they provide a more complete understanding of the Company’s performance to investors and management.
The following is a reconciliation of net income attributable to common stockholders, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, to FFO, MFFO and AFFO for the three months and years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 (amounts in thousands, except share data and per share amounts):

(1) | During the year ended December 31, 2019, we wrote off two in-place lease intangible assets in the amount of approximately $3.2 million by accelerating the amortization of the acquired intangible assets. |
(2) | Under GAAP, certain intangibles are accounted for at cost and reviewed for impairment. However, because real estate values and market lease rates historically rise or fall with market conditions, management believes that by excluding charges related to amortization of these intangibles, MFFO provides useful supplemental information on the performance of the real estate. During the year ended December 31, 2019, we wrote off one below-market lease intangible liability in the amount of approximately $0.2 million by accelerating the amortization of the acquired intangible liability. |
(3) | Under GAAP, rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related lease (including rent holidays if applicable). This may result in income recognition that is significantly different than the underlying contract terms. During the year ended December 31, 2019, we wrote off approximately $0.5 million of straight-line rent. By adjusting for the change in straight-line rent receivable, MFFO may provide useful supplemental information on the realized economic impact of lease terms, providing insight on the expected contractual cash flows of such lease terms, and aligns with our analysis of operating performance. |
