Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1 – Organization and Basis of Presentation

Equity LifeStyle Properties, Inc. (“ELS”), a Maryland corporation, together with MHC Operating Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”) and its other consolidated subsidiaries (the “Subsidiaries”), are referred to herein as “we,” “us,” and “our”. We are a fully integrated owner of lifestyle-oriented properties (“Properties”) consisting of property operations and home sales and rental operations primarily within manufactured home (“MH”) and recreational vehicle (“RV”) communities and marinas. We have a unique business model where we own the land which we lease to customers who own manufactured homes and cottages, RVs and/or boats either on a long-term or short-term basis. Our customers may lease individual developed areas (“Sites”) or enter into right-to-use contracts, also known as membership subscriptions, which provide them access to specific Properties for limited stays.

Our Properties are owned primarily by the Operating Partnership and managed internally by affiliates of the Operating Partnership. ELS is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, has exclusive responsibility and discretion in management and control of the Operating Partnership and held a 95.3% interest as of September 30, 2022. As the general partner with control, ELS is the primary beneficiary of, and therefore consolidates, the Operating Partnership.

Equity method of accounting is applied to entities in which ELS does not have a controlling interest or for variable interest entities in which ELS is not considered the primary beneficiary, but with respect to which it can exercise significant influence over operations and major decisions. Our exposure to losses associated with unconsolidated joint ventures is primarily limited to the carrying value of these investments. Accordingly, distributions from a joint venture in excess of our carrying value are recognized in earnings.

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and regulations for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. All adjustments to the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are of a normal, recurring nature and, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of results for these interim periods. Revenues and expenses are subject to seasonal fluctuations and accordingly, quarterly interim results may not be indicative of full year results. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified on our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements to conform with current year presentation.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(a)    Revenue Recognition

Our revenue streams are predominantly derived from customers renting our Sites or entering into membership subscriptions. Leases with customers renting our Sites are accounted for as operating leases. The rental income associated with these leases is accounted for in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842, Leases, and is recognized over the term of the respective lease or the length of a customer’s stay. MH Sites are generally leased on an annual basis to residents who own or lease factory-built homes, including manufactured homes. RV and marina Sites are leased to those who generally have an RV, factory-built cottage, boat or other unit placed on the site, including those customers renting marina dry storage slips. Annual Sites are leased on an annual basis, including those Northern Properties that are open for the summer season. Seasonal Sites are leased to customers generally for one to six months. Transient Sites are leased to customers on a short-term basis. We do not separate expenses reimbursed by our customers (“utility recoveries”) from the associated rental income as we meet the practical expedient criteria to combine the lease and non-lease components. We assessed the criteria and concluded that the timing and pattern of transfer for rental income and the associated utility recoveries are the same and, as our leases qualify as operating leases, we account for and present rental income and utility recoveries as a single component under Rental income in our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. In addition, customers may lease homes that are located in our communities. These leases are accounted for as operating leases. Rental income derived from customers leasing homes is also accounted for in accordance with ASC 842, Leases and is recognized over the term of the respective lease. The allowance for credit losses related to the collectability of lease receivables is presented as a reduction to Rental income. Lease receivables are presented within Other assets, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are net of an allowance for credit losses. The estimate for credit losses is a result of our ongoing assessments and evaluations of collectability, including historical loss experience, current market conditions and future expectations in forecasting credit losses.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Annual membership subscriptions and membership upgrade sales are accounted for in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Membership subscriptions provide our customers access to specific Properties for limited stays at a specified group of Properties. Payments are deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the one-year period during which access to Sites at certain Properties is provided. Membership subscription receivables are presented within Other assets, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are net of an allowance for credit losses. Membership upgrades grant certain additional access rights to the customer and require non-refundable upfront payments. The non-refundable upfront payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over 20 years. Financed upgrade sales (also known as contract receivables) are presented within Notes receivable, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are net of an allowance for credit losses.

Income from home sales is recognized when the earnings process is complete. The earnings process is complete when the home has been delivered, the purchaser has accepted the home and title has transferred. We have a limited program under which we purchase loans made by an unaffiliated lender to homebuyers at our Properties. Financed home sales (also known as chattel loans) are presented within Notes receivable, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are net of an allowance for credit losses.

(b)    Restricted Cash

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, restricted cash consisted of $23.2 million and $29.3 million, respectively, primarily related to cash reserved for customer deposits and escrows for insurance and real estate taxes.

Note 3 – Leases

Lessor

The leases entered into between the customer and us for rental of a Site are renewable upon the consent of both parties or, in some instances, as provided by statute. Long-term leases that are non-cancelable by the tenants are in effect at certain Properties. Rental rate increases at these Properties are primarily a function of increases in the Consumer Price Index, taking into consideration certain conditions. Additionally, periodic market rate adjustments are made as deemed appropriate. In addition, certain state statutes allow entry into long-term agreements that effectively modify lease terms related to rent amounts and increases over the term of the agreements. The following table presents future minimum rents expected to be received under long-term non-cancelable tenant leases, as well as those leases that are subject to long-term agreements governing rent payments and increases:

(amounts in thousands)	As of September 30, 2022

Lessee

We lease land under non-cancelable operating leases at 10 Properties expiring at various dates between 2028 and 2054. The Westwinds ground leases expired August 31, 2022, for additional information see Part I. Item 1. Financial Statements —Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies. The majority of the leases have terms requiring fixed payments plus additional rents based on a percentage of gross revenues at those Properties. We also have other operating leases, primarily office space, expiring at various dates through 2032. For the quarters ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, total operating lease payments were $2.7 million and $2.9 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, total operating lease payments were $8.2 million and $8.0 million, respectively.

Hurricane Ian made landfall on the west coast of Florida on September 28, 2022. The most significant damage to our properties occurred in or near the Fort Myers area. Six of our Properties in or near this market are temporarily closed. As a result of the storm event and the damage caused, we wrote down the carrying value of certain assets at these properties by approximately $3.7 million during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2022, which is included in Loss on sale of real estate and impairment, net in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Note 8 – Borrowing Arrangements

Mortgage Notes Payable

Our mortgage notes payable is classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The following table presents the fair value of our mortgage notes payable:

Mortgage notes payable, excluding deferred financing costs	$	2,027,030	$	2,734,310	$	2,743,527	$	2,654,086

The weighted average interest rate on our outstanding mortgage indebtedness, including the impact of premium/discount amortization and loan cost amortization on mortgage indebtedness, as of September 30, 2022, was approximately 3.7% per annum. The debt bears interest at stated rates ranging from 2.4% to 8.9% per annum and matures on various dates ranging from 2023 to 2041. The debt encumbered a total of 114 and 117 of our Properties as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and the gross carrying value of such Properties was approximately $2,851.5 million and $2,817.5 million, as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we repaid $14.2 million of principal on two mortgage loans that were due to mature in 2022, incurring $0.5 million of prepayment penalties. These mortgage loans had a weighted average interest rate of 5.25% per annum and were secured by three RV communities.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we entered into a $200.0 million secured refinancing transaction. The loan is secured by one MH community, has a fixed interest rate of 3.36% per annum and has a maturity date of May 1, 2034. The net proceeds from the transaction were used to repay all debt scheduled to mature in 2022 and to repay amounts outstanding on the Line of Credit (“LOC”).

Unsecured Debt

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we entered into a $200.0 million senior unsecured term loan agreement. The maturity date is January 21, 2027, with an interest rate of Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus approximately 1.30% to 1.80%, depending on leverage levels.

The LOC had a balance of $95.0 million and $349.0 million outstanding as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. As of September 30, 2022, our LOC had a remaining borrowing capacity of $405.0 million.

As of September 30, 2022, we were in compliance in all material respects with the covenants in all our borrowing arrangements.

Note 9 – Derivative Instruments and Hedging

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

We record all derivatives at fair value. Our objective in utilizing interest rate derivatives is to add stability to our interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. We do not enter into derivatives for speculative purposes.

We have a three-year LIBOR Swap Agreement (the “Swap”) allowing us to trade the variable interest rate associated with our variable rate debt for a fixed interest rate. The Swap has a notional amount of $300.0 million of outstanding principal with a fixed interest rate of 0.39% per annum and matures on March 25, 2024. Based on the leverage as of September 30, 2022, our spread over LIBOR was 1.40% resulting in an estimated all-in interest rate of 1.79% per annum.

Our derivative financial instrument was classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The following table presents the fair value of our derivative financial instrument:

		As of September 30,		As of December 31,
(amounts in thousands)	Balance Sheet Location	2022		2021

Interest Rate Swap	$	(18,479)	$	142	Interest Expense	$	(1,527)	$	467

During the next twelve months, we estimate that $11.7 million will be reclassified as a decrease to interest expense. This estimate may be subject to change as the underlying LIBOR changes. We determined that no adjustment was necessary for non-performance risk on our derivative obligation. As of September 30, 2022, we had not posted any collateral related to the Swap.

Note 10 – Equity Incentive Awards

Our 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”) was adopted by the Board of Directors on March 11, 2014 and approved by our stockholders on May 13, 2014.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, 79,078 shares of restricted stock were awarded to certain members of our management team. Of these shares, 50% are time-based awards, vesting in equal installments over a three-year period on January 27, 2023, January 26, 2024 and January 31, 2025, respectively, and have a grant date fair value of $3.0 million. The remaining 50% are performance-based awards vesting in equal installments on January 27, 2023, January 26, 2024 and January 31, 2025, respectively, upon meeting performance conditions as established by the Compensation Committee in the year of the vesting period. They are valued using the closing price at the grant date when all the key terms and conditions are known to all parties. The 13,178 shares of restricted stock subject to 2022 performance goals have a grant date fair value of $1.0 million.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2022 we awarded to certain members of our Board of Directors 51,522 shares of restricted stock at a fair value of approximately $4.1 million and options to purchase 7,210 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $79.72. These are time-based awards subject to various vesting dates between October 26, 2022 and April 26, 2025.

Stock based compensation expense, reported in General and administrative expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income, was $2.6 million and $2.8 million for the quarters ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $7.9 million and $8.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies

We are involved in various legal and regulatory proceedings (“Proceedings”) arising in the ordinary course of business. The Proceedings include, but are not limited to, legal claims made by employees, vendors and customers, and notices, consent decrees, information requests, additional permit requirements and other similar enforcement actions by governmental agencies relating to our utility infrastructure, including water and wastewater treatment plants and other waste treatment facilities and electrical systems. Additionally, in the ordinary course of business, our operations are subject to audit by various taxing authorities. Management believes these Proceedings taken together do not represent a material liability. In addition, to the extent any such Proceedings or audits relate to newly acquired Properties, we consider any potential indemnification obligations of sellers in our favor.

The Operating Partnership operated and managed Westwinds, a 720 site mobilehome community, and Nicholson Plaza, an adjacent shopping center, both located in San Jose, California pursuant to ground leases that expired on August 31, 2022 and did not contain extension options. The master lessor of these ground leases, The Nicholson Family Partnership (together with its predecessor in interest, the “Nicholsons”), has expressed a desire to redevelop Westwinds, and in a written communication, they claimed that we were obligated to deliver the property free and clear of any and all subtenancies upon the expiration of the ground leases on August 31, 2022. In connection with any redevelopment, the City of San Jose’s conversion ordinance requires, among other things, that the landowner provide relocation, rental and purchase assistance to the impacted residents.

Equity LifeStyle Properties, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 11 - Commitments and Contingencies (continued)

We believe the Nicholsons’ demand to be unlawful, and on December 30, 2019, the Operating Partnership, together with certain interested parties, filed a complaint in California Superior Court for Santa Clara County, seeking declaratory relief pursuant to which it requested that the Court determine, among other things, that the Operating Partnership had no obligation to deliver the property free and clear of the mobilehome residents upon the expiration of the ground leases. The Operating Partnership and the interested parties filed an amended complaint on January 29, 2020. The Nicholsons filed a demand for arbitration on January 28, 2020, which they subsequently amended, seeking (i) a declaration that the Operating Partnership, as the “owner and manager” of Westwinds, is “required by the Ground Leases, and State and local law to deliver the Property free of any encumbrances or third-party claims at the expiration of the lease terms,” (ii) that the Operating Partnership anticipatorily breached the ground leases by publicly repudiating any such obligation and (iii) that the Operating Partnership is required to indemnify the Nicholsons with respect to the claims brought by the interested parties in the Superior Court proceeding.

On February 3, 2020, the Nicholsons filed a motion in California Superior Court to compel arbitration and to stay the Superior Court litigation, which motion was heard on June 25, 2020. On July 29, 2020, the Superior Court issued a final order denying the Nicholsons' motion to compel arbitration. The Nicholsons filed a notice of appeal on August 7, 2020, which appeal was heard on February 1, 2022. On February 4, 2022, the California Court of Appeal affirmed the Superior Court’s order denying the Nicholsons' motion to compel arbitration. On February 22, 2022, the Nicholsons filed a petition for rehearing, which the Court of Appeal denied on March 2, 2022. On March 16, 2022, the Nicholsons filed a petition for review with the California Supreme Court, which the California Supreme Court denied on April 20, 2022. On May 18, 2022, the Nicholsons filed a cross complaint alleging that the Operating Partnership is obligated to deliver Westwinds free and clear of encumbrances and in good condition and repair. The cross complaint asserts that it is no longer feasible for the Operating Partnership to cure its alleged breaches given that the ground leases terminate on August 31, 2022. The Nicholsons filed a demurrer to our complaint which was denied by the Superior Court.

On July 19, 2022, the Nicholsons sent two notices of default to the Operating Partnership, one related to Westwinds and the other related to Nicholson Plaza, the adjacent shopping center. The notices generally assert that the Operating Partnership failed to maintain or repair certain infrastructure and improvements at Westwinds and Nicholson Plaza. The Operating Partnership disputes the contention that it did not maintain Westwinds and Nicholson Plaza in compliance with the terms of the applicable ground leases.

The arbitration that was previously stayed pursuant to an agreement between the Operating Partnership and the Nicholsons was set for a hearing on October 31, 2022 with respect to the Nicholsons’ claim that the Operating Partnership is required to indemnify the Nicholsons with respect to the claims brought by the interested parties in the Superior Court proceeding and a claim by the Operating Partnership for recovery of fees incurred in connection with the Nicholsons’ failed motion to compel arbitration.

On October 6, 2022, the parties to the Superior Court proceeding as well as the arbitration entered into a binding agreement pursuant to which, among other things, the parties agreed to dismiss with prejudice all claims pending in the Superior Court and in the arbitration; however, the Nicholsons reserved their rights to pursue their claim that the Operating Partnership failed to maintain or repair certain infrastructure and improvements at Westwinds and Nicholson Plaza. To the extent the Nicholsons pursue such claim, we intend to vigorously defend our interests. The parties are in the process of further documenting and implementing the settlement agreement. We do not expect the settlement agreement to have a material impact to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Note 12 - Reportable Segments

We have identified two reportable segments: (i) Property Operations and (ii) Home Sales and Rentals Operations. The Property Operations segment owns and operates land lease Properties and the Home Sales and Rentals Operations segment purchases, sells and leases homes at the Properties. The distribution of the Properties throughout the United States reflects our belief that geographic diversification helps insulate the portfolio from regional economic influences.

All revenues were from external customers and there is no customer who contributed 10% or more of our total revenues during the quarters and nine months ended September 30, 2022 or 2021.

Item 2.    Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (“2021 Form 10-K”), as well as information in Part II. Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our 2021 Form 10-K.

Overview and Outlook

We are a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”) with headquarters in Chicago, Illinois. We are a fully integrated owner of lifestyle-oriented properties (“Properties”) consisting of property operations and home sales and rental operations primarily within manufactured home (“MH”) and recreational vehicle (“RV”) communities and marinas. As of September 30, 2022, we owned or had an ownership interest in a portfolio of 445 Properties located throughout the United States and Canada containing 170,245 individual developed areas (“Sites”). These Properties are located in 35 states and British Columbia, with more than 110 Properties with lake, river or ocean frontage and more than 120 Properties within 10 miles of the coastal United States. See discussion of Hurricane Ian, including the impact to our Florida Properties in Part I. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis—Results Overview on page 23.

We invest in properties in sought-after locations near retirement and vacation destinations and urban areas across the United States with a focus on delivering an exceptional experience to our residents and guests that results in delivery of value to stockholders. Our business model is intended to provide an opportunity for increased cash flows and appreciation in value. We seek growth in earnings, Funds from Operations (“FFO”), Normalized Funds from Operations (“Normalized FFO”) and cash flows by enhancing the profitability and operation of our Properties and investments. We accomplish this by attracting and retaining high quality customers to our Properties, who take pride in our Properties and in their homes, and efficiently managing our Properties by increasing occupancy, maintaining competitive market rents and controlling expenses. We also actively pursue opportunities that fit our acquisition criteria and are currently engaged in various stages of negotiations relating to the possible acquisition of additional properties.

We believe the demand from baby boomers for MH and RV communities will continue to be strong over the long term. It is estimated that approximately 10,000 baby boomers are turning 65 daily through 2030. In addition, the population age 55 and older is expected to grow 17% within the next 15 years. These individuals, seeking an active lifestyle, will continue to drive the market for second-home sales as vacation properties, investment opportunities or retirement retreats. We expect it is likely that over the next decade, we will continue to see high levels of second-home sales and that manufactured homes and cottages in our Properties will continue to provide a viable second-home alternative to site-built homes. We also believe the Millennial and Generation Z demographic will contribute to our future long-term customer pipeline. After conducting a comprehensive study of RV ownership, according to the Recreational Vehicle Industry Association (“RVIA”), data suggested that RV sales are expected to benefit from an increase in demand from those born in the United States from 1980 to 2003, or Millennials and Generation Z, over the coming years. We believe the demand from baby boomers and these younger generations will continue to outpace supply for MH and RV communities. The entitlement process to develop new MH and RV communities is extremely restrictive. As a result, there have been limited new communities developed in our target geographic markets.

We generate the majority of our revenues from customers renting our Sites or entering into right-to-use contracts, also known as membership subscriptions, which provide them access to specific Properties for limited stays. MH Sites are generally leased on an annual basis to residents who own or lease factory-built homes, including manufactured homes. Annual RV and marina Sites are leased on an annual basis to customers who generally have an RV, factory-built cottage, boat or other unit placed on the site, including those Northern properties that are open for the summer season. Seasonal RV and marina Sites are leased to customers generally for one to six months. Transient RV and marina Sites are leased to customers on a short-term basis. The revenue from seasonal and transient Sites is generally higher during the first and third quarters. We consider the transient revenue stream to be our most volatile as it is subject to weather conditions and other factors affecting the marginal RV customer’s vacation and travel preferences. We also generate revenue from customers renting our marina dry storage. Additionally, we have interests in joint venture Properties for which revenue is classified as Equity in income from unconsolidated joint ventures on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.

Management's Discussion and Analysis (continued)

The following table shows the breakdown of our Sites by type (amounts are approximate):

	Total Sites as of September 30, 2022
MH Sites	72,700
RV Sites:
Annual	34,400
Seasonal	12,700
Transient	14,600
Marina Slips	6,900
Membership (1)	25,800
Joint Ventures (2)	3,100
Total	170,200

_________________________ 

(1)Primarily utilized to service approximately 132,200 members. Includes approximately 6,400 Sites rented on an annual basis.

(2)Includes approximately 1,800 annual Sites and 1,300 transient Sites.

In our Home Sales and Rentals Operations business, our revenue streams include home sales, home rentals and brokerage services and ancillary activities. We generate revenue through home sales and rental operations by selling or leasing manufactured homes and cottages that are located in Properties owned and managed by us. We believe renting our vacant homes represents an attractive source of occupancy and an opportunity to convert the renter to a homebuyer in the future. We also sell and rent homes through our joint venture, ECHO Financing, LLC (the “ECHO JV”). Additionally, home sale brokerage services are offered to our residents who may choose to sell their homes rather than relocate them when moving from a Property. At certain Properties, we operate ancillary facilities, such as golf courses, pro shops, stores and restaurants.

In the manufactured housing industry, options for home financing, also known as chattel financing, are limited. Chattel financing options available today include community owner-funded programs or third-party lender programs that provide subsidized financing to customers and often require the community owner to guarantee customer defaults. Third-party lender programs have stringent underwriting criteria, sizable down payment requirements, short term loan amortization and high interest rates. We have a limited program under which we purchase loans made by an unaffiliated lender to homebuyers at our Properties.

In addition to net income computed in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), we assess and measure our overall financial and operating performance using certain Non-GAAP supplemental measures, which include: (i) FFO, (ii) Normalized FFO, (iii) Income from property operations, (iv) Income from property operations, excluding deferrals and property management, (v) Core Portfolio income from property operations, excluding deferrals and property management (operating results for Properties owned and operated in both periods under comparison), and (vi) Income from rental operations, net of depreciation. We use these measures internally to evaluate the operating performance of our portfolio and provide a basis for comparison with other real estate companies. Definitions and reconciliations of these measures to the most comparable GAAP measures are included below in this discussion.

COVID-19 Pandemic Update

Since the COVID-19 pandemic began, we have taken actions to prioritize the safety and security of our employees, residents and customers, while maintaining our high-quality standards in service to our residents and customers. We have implemented and may continue to implement Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (“CDC”) and local public health department guidelines and protocols for social distancing and enhanced community and office cleaning procedures. Our Properties continue to be open subject to seasons of operations and state and local guidelines. Our property offices are open to residents and customers and we are complying with CDC recommended protocols.

We attribute the solid performance of our business to the fundamentals of our business model. The property locations and the lifestyle we offer have broad appeal to customers interested in enjoying an outdoor experience. We believe this is particularly relevant in a COVID-19 impacted environment. We intend to continue to monitor the evolving situation and we may take further actions that alter our business operations as may be required and that are in the best interests of our employees, residents, customers and shareholders. The extent of the impact that COVID-19 will have on our business going forward, including our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, is dependent on multiple factors, many of which are unknown.

Management's Discussion and Analysis (continued)

Results Overview

For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, net income available for Common Stockholders decreased $3.4 million to $67.2 million, or $0.36 per fully diluted Common Share, compared to $70.6 million, or $0.38 per fully diluted Common Share, for the same period in 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net income available for Common Stockholders increased $14.7 million, or $0.06 per fully diluted Common Share, to $211.6 million, or $1.14 per fully diluted Common Share, compared to $196.9 million, or $1.08 per fully diluted Common Share, for the same period in 2021.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, FFO available for Common Stock and Operating Partnership unit (“OP Unit”) holders increased $9.9 million, or $0.04 per fully diluted Common Share, to $134.4 million, or $0.69 per fully diluted Common Share, compared to $124.5 million, or $0.65 per fully diluted Common Share, for the same period in 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, FFO available for Common Stock and OP Unit holders increased $34.3 million, or $0.15 per fully diluted Common Share, to $396.9 million, or $2.03 per fully diluted Common Share, compared to $362.6 million, or $1.88 per fully diluted Common Share, for the same period in 2021.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, Normalized FFO available for Common Stock and OP Unit holders increased $12.3 million, or $0.05 per fully diluted Common Share, to $136.8 million, or $0.70 per fully diluted Common Share, compared to $124.5 million, or $0.65 per fully diluted Common Share, for the same period in 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, Normalized FFO available for Common Stock and OP Unit holders increased $38.1 million, or $0.17 per fully diluted Common Share, to $403.5 million, or $2.07 per fully diluted Common Share, compared to $365.4 million, or $1.90 per fully diluted Common Share, for the same period 2021.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, our Core Portfolio property operating revenues, excluding deferrals, increased 5.3% and property operating expenses, excluding deferrals and property management, increased 7.8%, from the same period in 2021, resulting in an increase in income from property operations, excluding deferrals and property management, of 3.5%, compared to the same period in 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, our Core Portfolio property operating revenues, excluding deferrals, increased 6.5% and property operating expenses, excluding deferrals and property management, increased 8.3%, from the same period in 2021, resulting in an increase in income from property operations, excluding deferrals and property management, of 5.3%, compared to the same period in 2021.

Hurricane Ian made landfall on the west coast of Florida on September 28, 2022. Approximately 60% of our Florida portfolio was in the path of the storm as it moved across the state. During the storm, we prioritized the safety of our residents, guests and employees. For the majority of our properties the impact was limited to flooding, wind, wind-blown debris and falling trees and branches. These properties have resumed operations.

The most significant damage to our properties occurred in or near the Fort Myers area. Six of our Properties in or near this market continue to experience utility disruptions and are temporarily closed. The properties include four RV parks and two marinas with a total of 2,100 sites/slips. During the storm, the four RV properties experienced strong winds as well as significant flooding, including from unprecedented storm surges that resulted in damage to certain common area buildings, utility infrastructure and residents’ homes. The two marinas suffered wind related building damage and the process of restoring the buildings has begun. We currently expect these properties will resume operations during the fourth quarter, although certain locations may operate at a limited capacity.

Since the storm passed, we have worked towards quickly returning our properties to full operating condition with efforts focused on debris cleanup and removal and initiating the process to restore impacted buildings and infrastructure. Based on our prior experience with recovery following major storms, developing restoration plans and estimating costs to execute on those plans takes time, often several weeks. We did not accrue any repair and maintenance expenses related to cleanup or restoration efforts during the third quarter of 2022 given the short period of time between the storm’s passage and the end of the reporting period. However, as part of our review and based on information currently available, we have determined that storm-related damage to certain assets supported a $3.7 million reduction to the carrying value of those assets, which is included in Loss on sale of real estate and impairment, net in the Consolidated Statements of Income. We believe the costs to restore these damaged assets will be included in our insurance claim. We believe we have adequate insurance coverage, subject to deductibles, including business interruption though we are unable to predict the timing or amount of insurance recovery.

23

Management's Discussion and Analysis (continued)

We continue to focus on the quality of occupancy growth by increasing the number of manufactured homeowners in our Core Portfolio. Our Core Portfolio average occupancy includes both homeowners and renters in our MH communities and was 95.2%, 95.1% and 95.0% for the quarters ended September 30, 2022, December 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021, respectively. For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, our Core Portfolio occupancy increased by 22 sites with an increase in homeowner occupancy of 190 sites, compared to occupancy as of June 30, 2022. By comparison, for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, our Core Portfolio occupancy increased 67 sites with an increase in homeowner occupancy of 275 sites. While we continue to focus on increasing the number of manufactured homeowners in our Core Portfolio, we also believe renting our vacant homes represents an attractive source of occupancy and an opportunity to potentially convert the renter to a new homebuyer in the future. We continue to expect there to be fluctuations in the sources of occupancy gains depending on local market conditions, availability of vacant sites and success with converting renters to homeowners. As of September 30, 2022, we had 2,949 occupied rental homes in our Core MH communities, including 165 homes rented through our ECHO JV.

RV and marina base rental income in our Core Portfolio increased 4.1% and 10.3% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2021 driven by annual and seasonal rental income. Core RV and marina base rental income from annuals represents more than 60% of total Core RV and marina base rental income and increased 8.6% and 8.8% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2021. Core seasonal RV and marina base rental income increased 21.2% and 46.0% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2021. Core transient RV and marina base rental income decreased by $2.3 million, or 7.2% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same period in 2021 and decreased $1.0 million, or 1.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same period in 2021.

Annual membership subscription revenue increased $1.1 million, or 7.5% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 and $4.0 million, or 9.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same periods in 2021. The increase in annual membership subscription revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 was primarily offset by a decrease in Membership upgrade sales current period, gross of $1.6 million, or 5.4%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021.

Demand for our homes and communities remains strong as evidenced by factors including our high occupancy levels. We closed 331 new home sales during the quarter ended September 30, 2022, compared to 338 new home sales during the quarter ended September 30, 2021, a decrease of 2.1%. We closed 957 new home sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to 825 new home sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of 16.0%. The increase in new home sales was primarily in the Florida and Arizona markets due to favorable housing trends.

Our gross investment in real estate increased $279.1 million to $7,268.2 million as of September 30, 2022 from $6,989.1 million as of December 31, 2021, primarily due to acquisitions and capital improvements during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations include certain Non-GAAP financial measures that in management’s view of the business are meaningful as they allow investors the ability to understand key operating details of our business both with and without regard to certain accounting conventions or items that may not always be indicative of recurring annual cash flows of the portfolio. These Non-GAAP financial measures as determined and presented by us may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, and include income from property operations and Core Portfolio, FFO, Normalized FFO and income from rental operations, net of depreciation.

We believe investors should review Income from property operations and Core Portfolio, FFO, Normalized FFO and Income from rental operations, net of depreciation, along with GAAP net income and cash flow from operating activities, investing activities and financing activities, when evaluating an equity REIT’s operating performance. A discussion of Income from property operations and Core Portfolio, FFO, Normalized FFO and Income from rental operations, net of depreciation, and a reconciliation to net income, are included below.

Management's Discussion and Analysis (continued)

Income from Property Operations and Core Portfolio

We use income from property operations, income from property operations, excluding deferrals and property management, and Core Portfolio income from property operations, excluding deferrals and property management, as alternative measures to evaluate the operating results of our Properties. Income from property operations represents rental income, membership subscriptions and upgrade sales, utility and other income less property and rental home operating and maintenance expenses, real estate taxes, sales and marketing expenses and property management expenses. Income from property operations, excluding deferrals and property management, represents income from property operations excluding property management expenses and the impact of the GAAP deferrals of membership upgrade sales upfront payments and membership sales commissions, net. We present bad debt expense within Property operating and maintenance in the current and prior periods.

Our Core Portfolio consists of our Properties owned and operated during all of 2021 and 2022. Core Portfolio income from property operations, excluding deferrals and property management, is useful to investors for annual comparison as it removes the fluctuations associated with acquisitions, dispositions and significant transactions or unique situations. Our Non-Core Portfolio includes all Properties that were not owned and operated during all of 2021 and 2022. This includes, but is not limited to, six RV communities and eleven marinas acquired during 2021, one membership RV community and three RV communities acquired during 2022 and our Westwinds MH community and an adjacent shopping center.

Funds from Operations (“FFO”) and Normalized Funds from Operations (“Normalized FFO”)

We define FFO as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from sales of properties, depreciation and amortization related to real estate, impairment charges and adjustments to reflect our share of FFO of unconsolidated joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. We compute FFO in accordance with our interpretation of standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), which may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do. We receive non-refundable upfront payments from membership upgrade contracts. In accordance with GAAP, the non-refundable upfront payments and related commissions are deferred and amortized over the estimated membership upgrade contract term. Although the NAREIT definition of FFO does not address the treatment of non-refundable upfront payments, we believe that it is appropriate to adjust for the impact of the deferral activity in our calculation of FFO.

We define Normalized FFO as FFO excluding non-operating income and expense items, such as gains and losses from early debt extinguishment, including prepayment penalties, defeasance costs and transaction/pursuit costs, and other miscellaneous non-comparable items. Normalized FFO presented herein is not necessarily comparable to Normalized FFO presented by other real estate companies due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same methodology for computing this amount.

We believe that FFO and Normalized FFO are helpful to investors as supplemental measures of the performance of an equity REIT. We believe that by excluding the effect of gains or losses from sales of properties, depreciation and amortization related to real estate and impairment charges, which are based on historical costs and which may be of limited relevance in evaluating current performance, FFO can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and among other equity REITs. We further believe that Normalized FFO provides useful information to investors, analysts and our management because it allows them to compare our operating performance to the operating performance of other real estate companies and between periods on a consistent basis without having to account for differences not related to our normal operations. For example, we believe that excluding the early extinguishment of debt and other miscellaneous non-comparable items from FFO allows investors, analysts and our management to assess the sustainability of operating performance in future periods because these costs do not affect the future operations of the properties. In some cases, we provide information about identified non-cash components of FFO and Normalized FFO because it allows investors, analysts and our management to assess the impact of those items.

Income from Rental Operations, Net of Depreciation

We use income from rental operations, net of depreciation as an alternative measure to evaluate the operating results of our home rental program. Income from rental operations, net of depreciation represents income from rental operations less depreciation expense on rental homes. We believe this measure is meaningful for investors as it provides a complete picture of the home rental program operating results including the impact of depreciation which affects our home rental program investment decisions.

26

Management's Discussion and Analysis (continued)

Our definitions and calculations of these Non-GAAP financial and operating measures and other terms may differ from the definitions and methodologies used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable. These Non-GAAP financial and operating measures do not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, nor do they represent cash available to pay distributions and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, determined in accordance with GAAP, as an indication of our financial performance, or to cash flows from operating activities, determined in accordance with GAAP, as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions.

(1)Rental income consists of the following total portfolio income items in this table: 1) MH base rental income, 2) Rental home income, 3) RV and marina base rental income and 4) Utility income, which is calculated by subtracting Other income on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income from Utility and other income in this table. The difference between the sum of the total portfolio income items and Rental income on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income is bad debt expense, which is presented in Property operating and maintenance expense in this table.

(2)Includes bad debt expense for all periods presented.

(3)See Part I. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis—Non-GAAP Financial Measures for definitions and reconciliations of these Non-GAAP measures to Net Income available for Common Shareholders.

Total portfolio income from property operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, increased $8.3 million, or 5.5%, from the quarter ended September 30, 2021, driven by an increase of $3.0 million, or 2.1%, from our Core Portfolio and an increase of $5.3 million from our Non-Core Portfolio. The increase in income from property operations from our Core Portfolio was primarily due to higher property operating revenues, excluding deferrals, primarily in MH base rental income and RV and marina base rental income, partially offset by an increase in property operating expenses, excluding deferrals and property management. The increase in income from property operations from our Non-Core Portfolio was primarily attributed to income from properties acquired in 2021 and the first three quarters of 2022.

29

Management's Discussion and Analysis (continued)

Property Operating Revenues

MH base rental income in our Core Portfolio for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 increased $8.7 million, or 5.9%, from the quarter ended September 30, 2021, which reflects 5.5% growth from rate increases and 0.4% growth from occupancy gains. The average monthly base rental income per Site in our Core Portfolio increased to approximately $759 for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 from approximately $720 for the quarter ended September 30, 2021. The average occupancy for our Core Portfolio was 95.2% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 and 95.0% for the quarter ended September 30, 2021.

RV and marina base rental income is comprised of the following:

	Core Portfolio								Total Portfolio
	Quarters Ended September 30,								Quarters Ended September 30,
(amounts in thousands)	2022		2021		Variance		% Change		2022		2021		Variance		% Change
Annual	$	58,484	$	53,861	$	4,623	8.6	%	$	68,008	$	60,435	$	7,573	12.5	%
Seasonal	8,722		7,195		1,527		21.2	%	9,478		7,336		2,142		29.2	%
Transient	29,516		31,822		(2,306)		(7.2)	%	32,396		32,818		(422)		(1.3)	%
RV and marina base rental income	$	96,722	$	92,878	$	3,844	4.1	%	$	109,882	$	100,589	$	9,293	9.2	%

RV and marina base rental income in our Core Portfolio for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 increased $3.8 million, or 4.1%, from the quarter ended September 30, 2021, driven by an increase in Annual and Seasonal RV and marina base rental income that was partially offset by a decrease in Transient rental income. The increase in Annual RV and marina base rental income of 8.6% was driven by a net increase in Annual RV sites. The increase in Seasonal RV and marina base rental income of 21.2% was driven by increases in all regions except the Northeast, with the South as the largest contributor. The decrease in Transient RV and marina base rental income of 7.2% was primarily due to a decrease in transient RV revenue as a result of a reduction in the number of Transient sites available.

Annual membership subscription revenue in our Core Portfolio for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 increased $0.9 million, or 6.1%, from the quarter ended September 30, 2021. During the quarter ended September 30, 2022 we sold approximately 7,200 Thousand Trails Camping Pass memberships, an increase of 7.5% from the quarter ended September 30, 2021.

Utility and other income in our Core Portfolio for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 increased $2.5 million, or 9.9%, from the quarter ended September 30, 2021. The increase was primarily due to a $1.5 million increase in utility income, which was primarily due to an increase in electric income in the South and West, sewer income in all regions and trash income in the South. The utility recovery rate (utility income divided by utility expenses) for the quarters ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was approximately 42% and 43%, respectively.

Property Operating Expenses

Property operating expenses, excluding deferrals and property management, in our Core Portfolio for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 increased $10.0 million, or 7.8%, from the quarter ended September 30, 2021, driven by increases in property operating and maintenance expenses of $9.4 million and real estate taxes of $0.5 million. Core property operating and maintenance expenses were higher in 2022 primarily due to increases in utility expenses of $4.2 million, property payroll of $2.8 million, administrative expenses of $1.3 million, and repair and maintenance of $1.2 million.

Income from home sales and other operations was $5.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, an increase of $2.1 million, compared to $3.2 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2021. The increase in income from home sales and other operations was primarily due to an increase in gross profit from new home sales during the quarter ended September 30, 2022 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2021, primarily driven by favorable housing trends in the broader real estate market.

(1)Consists of Site rental income and home rental income. Approximately $6.7 million and $7.8 million for the quarters ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively, of Site rental income is included in MH base rental income in the Core Portfolio Income from Property Operations table. The remainder of home rental income is included in rental home income in our Core Portfolio Income from Property Operations table.

(2)Presented in Depreciation and amortization in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.

(3)New home cost basis does not include the costs associated with our ECHO JV. Our investment in the ECHO JV was $19.0 million and $17.8 million as of September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively.

(4)Includes 165 and 253 homes rented through our ECHO JV as of September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Income from rental operations, net of depreciation, decreased $1.4 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2022, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to a decrease in the number of occupied rentals.

Other Income and Expenses

The following table summarizes other income and expenses, net:

	Quarters Ended September 30,
(amounts in thousands, expenses shown as negative)	2022		2021		Variance		% Change

Total other income and expenses, net	$	(90,755)	$	(79,930)	$	(10,825)	(13.5)	%

Total other income and expenses, net increased $10.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to higher depreciation and amortization and higher interest and related amortization. The increase in depreciation and amortization is due to depreciation on Non-core properties acquired in 2021 and the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Loss on sale of real estate and impairment, net

During the quarter ended September 30, 2022, we wrote down the carrying value of certain assets at six properties by approximately $3.7 million as a result of property damage caused by Hurricane Ian.

(1)Rental income consists of the following total portfolio income items: 1) MH base rental income, 2) Rental home income, 3) RV and marina base rental income and 4) Utility income, which is calculated by subtracting Other income on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income from Utility and other income in this table. The difference between the sum of the total portfolio income items and Rental income on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income is bad debt expense, which is presented in Property operating maintenance expense in this table.

(2)Includes bad debt expense for all periods presented.

(3)See Part I. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis—Non-GAAP Financial Measures for definitions and reconciliation of these Non-GAAP measures to Net Income available for Common Shareholders.

Total Portfolio income from property operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 increased $35.8 million, or 8.1%, from the same period in 2021, driven by an increase of $20.3 million, or 4.7%, from our Core Portfolio and by an increase of $15.5 million from our Non-Core Portfolio. The increase in income from property operations from our Core Portfolio was primarily due to higher property operating revenues, excluding deferrals, primarily in RV and marina base rental income and MH base rental income, partially offset by an increase in property operating expenses, excluding deferrals and property management. The increase in income from property operations from our Non-Core Portfolio was attributed to income from properties acquired in 2021 and the first three quarters of 2022.

Property Operating Revenues

MH base rental income in our Core Portfolio for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 increased $25.3 million, or 5.7%, from the same period in 2021, which reflects 5.3% growth from rate increases and 0.4% growth from occupancy gains. The average monthly base rental income per Site increased to approximately $753 in 2022 from approximately $715 in 2021. The average occupancy for the Core Portfolio was 95.1% for both the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

Management's Discussion and Analysis (continued)

RV and marina base rental income is comprised of the following:

	Core Portfolio								Total Portfolio
	Nine Months Ended September 30,								Nine Months Ended September 30,
(amounts in thousands)	2022		2021		Variance		% Change		2022		2021		Variance		% Change
Annual	$	171,295	$	157,497	$	13,798	8.8	%	$	198,994	$	173,702	$	25,292	14.6	%
Seasonal	42,684		29,235		13,449		46.0	%	45,576		30,145		15,431		51.2	%
Transient	66,535		67,507		(972)		(1.4)	%	72,414		69,338		3,076		4.4	%
RV and marina base rental income	$	280,514	$	254,239	$	26,275	10.3	%	$	316,984	$	273,185	$	43,799	16.0	%

RV and marina base rental income in our Core Portfolio for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 increased $26.3 million, or 10.3%, from the same period in 2021 primarily due to increases in Annual and Seasonal RV and marina base rental income. The increase in Annual RV and marina base rental income of $13.8 million, or 8.8% was seen across all regions, primarily in the South, West and Northeast. The increase in Seasonal RV and marina base rental income of $13.4 million, or 46.0% was due to the rebound of seasonal demand in the South and West as we welcomed back our Canadian guests and our domestic customers were able to travel without restrictions.

Annual membership subscription revenue in our Core Portfolio for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 increased $3.5 million, or 8.1%, from the same period in 2021, reflecting a 5.7% increase in the number of Thousand Trails Camping members. The increase in annual membership subscription revenue of $3.5 million, or 8.1%, from 2021 was offset by a Membership upgrade sales current period, gross decrease of $2.6 million, or 8.8%, from 2021, as a result of the decrease in the number of upgrades sold primarily due to the introduction of the Adventure product during the quarter ended March 31, 2021.

Utility and other income in our Core Portfolio for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 increased $4.7 million, or 6.1%, from the same period in 2021. The increase was primarily due to an increase in utility income of $4.8 million and pass-through income of $1.2 million, partially offset by a decrease in insurance proceeds of $1.8 million. The increase in utility income was primarily due to an increase in electric income. The utility recovery rate (utility income divided by utility expenses) for both 2022 and 2021 was approximately 44%.

Property Operating Expenses

Property operating expenses, excluding deferrals and property management, in our Core Portfolio for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 increased $29.9 million, or 8.3%, from the same period in 2021, driven by increases in property operating and maintenance expenses of $28.9 million. Core property operating and maintenance expenses were higher during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same period in 2021 due to increases in utility expenses of $11.6 million, repairs and maintenance expenses of $6.7 million, and property payroll expenses of $6.2 million.

The income from home sales and other was $11.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, an increase of $5.0 million, compared to $6.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in income from home sales and other operations was primarily due to an increase in gross profit from new home sales resulting from an increase of 132 new home sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021, primarily driven by favorable housing trends in the broader real estate market.

______________________

(1)Rental operations revenue consists of Site rental income and home rental income in our Core Portfolio. Approximately $21.1 million and $24.0 million of Site rental income for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, are included in community base rental income within the Core Portfolio Income from Property Operations table. The remainder of home rental income is included in rental home income within the Core Portfolio Income from Property Operations table.

(2)Presented in Depreciation and amortization in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.

(3)Includes both occupied and unoccupied rental homes in our Core Portfolio. New home cost basis does not include the costs associated with our ECHO JV. Our investment in the ECHO JV was $19.0 million and $17.8 million as of September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

(4)Occupied rentals as of the end of the period in our Core Portfolio and includes 165 and 253 homes rented through our ECHO JV as of September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Income from rental operations, net of depreciation, was $3.7 million lower during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to a decrease in rental operations revenues as a result of a decrease in the number of new occupied rentals.

Other Income and Expenses

The following table summarizes other income and expenses, net:

	Nine Months Ended September 30,
(amounts in thousands, expenses shown as negative)	2022		2021		Variance		% Change
Depreciation and amortization	$	(152,737)	$	(138,127)	$	(14,610)	(10.6)	%

Total other income and expenses, net	$	(268,617)	$	(246,404)	$	(22,213)	(9.0)	%

Total other income and expenses, net increased $22.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to higher depreciation and amortization, interest and related amortization and other expenses. The increase in depreciation and amortization was due to depreciation on Non-Core properties acquired in 2021 and the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in Interest and related amortization was due to higher interest rates. The increase in Other expenses was primarily due to transaction/pursuit costs of $3.4 million related to unconsummated acquisitions.

Management's Discussion and Analysis (continued)

Loss on sale of real estate and impairment, net

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we wrote down the carrying value of certain assets at six properties by approximately $3.7 million as a result of property damage caused by Hurricane Ian. For additional information see Part 1. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis - Results Overview.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

Our primary demands for liquidity include payment of operating expenses, dividend distributions, debt service, including principal and interest, capital improvements on Properties, home purchases and property acquisitions. We expect similar demand for liquidity will continue for the short-term and long-term. Our primary sources of cash include operating cash flows, proceeds from financings, borrowings under our unsecured LOC and proceeds from issuance of equity and debt securities.

One of our stated objectives is to maintain financial flexibility. Achieving this objective allows us to take advantage of strategic opportunities that may arise. When investing capital, we consider all potential uses, including returning capital to our stockholders or the conditions under which we may repurchase our stock. These conditions include, but are not limited to, market price, balance sheet flexibility, alternative opportunistic capital uses and capital requirements. We believe effective management of our balance sheet, including maintaining various access points to raise capital, managing future debt maturities and borrowing at competitive rates, enables us to meet this objective. Accessing long-term low-cost secured debt continues to be our focus.

On February 24, 2022, we entered into our current at-the-market (“ATM”) equity offering program with certain sales agents, pursuant to which we may sell, from time-to-time, shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share, having an aggregate offering price of up to $500.0 million. Prior to the new program, the aggregate offering price was up to $200.0 million.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we sold 328,123 shares of our common stock under our prior ATM equity program for gross cash proceeds of approximately $28.0 million at a weighted average share price of $86.46. As of September 30, 2022, the full capacity of our current ATM equity offering program remained available for issuance.

As of September 30, 2022, we had available liquidity in the form of approximately 413.9 million shares of authorized and unissued common stock, par value $0.01 per share, and 10.0 million shares of authorized and unissued preferred stock registered for sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we closed on a $200.0 million senior unsecured term loan. The maturity date is January 21, 2027. The term loan bears interest at a rate of Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), plus approximately 1.30% to 1.80%, depending on leverage levels. We also closed on a secured refinancing transaction generating gross proceeds of $200.0 million. The loan is secured by one MH community, has a fixed interest rate of 3.36% per annum and has a maturity date of May 1, 2034. The net proceeds from the refinancing transaction were used to repay all debt scheduled to mature in 2022 and to repay amounts outstanding on the LOC. See Part I. Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 8. Borrowing Arrangements for further details.

We also utilize interest rate swaps to add stability to our interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. The changes in the fair value of the designated derivative are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and subsequently reclassified into earnings on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. For additional information regarding our interest rate swap, see Part I. Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 9. Derivative Instruments and Hedging.

We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements, including principal payments, capital improvements and dividend distributions for the next twelve months, generally through available cash, net cash provided by operating activities and our LOC. As of September 30, 2022, our LOC had a borrowing capacity of $405.0 million. As of September 30, 2022, the LOC bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 1.25% to 1.65%, carries an annual facility fee of 0.20% to 0.35% and matures on April 18, 2025.

We expect to meet certain long-term liquidity requirements, such as scheduled debt maturities, property acquisitions and capital improvements, using long-term collateralized and uncollateralized borrowings including the existing LOC and the

37

Management's Discussion and Analysis (continued)

issuance of debt securities or the issuance of equity including under our ATM equity offering program.

We continue to monitor the development and adoption of an alternative index to LIBOR to manage the transition. Given the majority of our current debt is secured and not subject to LIBOR, we do not believe the discontinuation of LIBOR will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

The impact the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to have on our financial condition and cashflows is uncertain and is dependent upon various factors including the manner in which operations will continue at our Properties, customer payment patterns and operational decisions we have made and may make in the future in response to guidance from public authorities and/or for the health and safety of our employees, residents and guests.

The following table summarizes our cash flows activity:

	Nine Months ended September 30,
(amounts in thousands)	2022		2021
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	487,821	$	453,607
Net cash used in investing activities	(398,884)		(677,954)
Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities	(181,825)		240,559
Net (decrease) increase in cash and restricted cash	$	(92,888)	$	16,212

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities increased $34.2 million to $487.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 from $453.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to higher income from property operations of $35.8 million.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities decreased $279.1 million to $398.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 from $678.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease was due to a decrease in spending on acquisitions of $358.5 million, partially offset by an increase in capital improvement spending of $64.6 million and an increase in investments in unconsolidated joint ventures of $15.5 million.

Capital Improvements

The following table summarizes capital improvements:

(1)Includes upkeep of property infrastructure including utilities and streets and replacement of community equipment and vehicles.

(2)Includes enhancements to amenities such as buildings, common areas, swimming pools and replacement of furniture and site amenities.

(3)Excludes new home investments associated with our ECHO JV.

(4)Net proceeds from new and used home sale activities are reflected within Operating Activities.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $181.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Net cash provided by financing activities was $240.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in net cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to a decrease in net debt proceeds of approximately $432.7 million, partially offset by proceeds from the sale of common stock under our ATM program of approximately $28.4 million.

Management's Discussion and Analysis (continued)

Contractual Obligations

Significant ongoing contractual obligations consist primarily of long-term borrowings, interest expense, operating leases, LOC maintenance fees and ground leases. For a summary and complete presentation and description of our ongoing commitments and contractual obligations, see Part II. Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Contractual Obligations in our 2021 Form 10-K.

Westwinds

The Operating Partnership operated and managed Westwinds, a 720 site mobilehome community, and Nicholson Plaza, an adjacent shopping center, both located in San Jose, California pursuant to ground leases that expired on August 31, 2022 and did not contain extension options. Westwinds provides affordable, rent-controlled homes to numerous residents, including families with children and residents over 65 years of age. For the year ended December 31, 2021, Westwinds and Nicholson Plaza generated approximately $6.0 million of net operating income.

The master lessor of these ground leases, The Nicholson Family Partnership (together with its predecessor in interest, the “Nicholsons”), has expressed a desire to redevelop Westwinds, and in a written communication, they claimed that we were obligated to deliver the property free and clear of any and all subtenancies upon the expiration of the ground leases on August 31, 2022. In connection with any redevelopment, the City of San Jose’s conversion ordinance requires, among other things, that the landowner provide relocation, rental and purchase assistance to the impacted residents. We believe the Nicholsons are unlawfully attempting to impose those obligations upon the Operating Partnership.

Westwinds opened in the 1970s and was developed by the original ground lessee with assistance from the Nicholsons. In 1997, the Operating Partnership acquired the leasehold interest in the ground leases. In addition to rent based on the operations of Westwinds, the Nicholsons received a percentage of gross revenues from the sale of new or used mobile homes in Westwinds.

The Operating Partnership entered into subtenancy agreements with the mobilehome residents of Westwinds. Because the ground leases with the Nicholsons had an expiration date of August 31, 2022, and no further right of extension, the Operating Partnership did not enter into any subtenancy agreements that extended beyond August 31, 2022. However, the mobilehome residents’ occupancy rights continued by operation of California state and San Jose municipal law beyond the expiration date of the ground leases. Notwithstanding this, the Nicholsons made what we believe to be an unlawful demand that the Operating Partnership deliver the property free and clear of any subtenancies upon the expiration of the ground leases by August 31, 2022. We believe the Nicholsons’ demand (i) violated California state and San Jose municipal law because the Nicholsons had demanded that the Operating Partnership remove all residents without just cause and (ii) conflicted with the terms and conditions of the ground leases, which contain no express or implied requirement that the Operating Partnership deliver the property free and clear of all subtenancies at the mobile home park and require, instead, that the Operating Partnership continuously operate the mobilehome park during the lease term.

On December 30, 2019, the Operating Partnership, together with certain interested parties, filed a complaint in California Superior Court for Santa Clara County, seeking declaratory relief pursuant to which it requested that the Court determine, among other things, that the Operating Partnership had no obligation to deliver the property free and clear of the mobilehome residents upon the expiration of the ground leases. The Operating Partnership and the interested parties filed an amended complaint on January 29, 2020.

Following the filing of our lawsuit, the City of San Jose took steps to accelerate the passage of a general plan amendment previously under review by the City to change the designation for Westwinds from its current general plan designation of Urban Residential (which would allow for higher density redevelopment), to a newly created designation of Mobile Home Park. The Nicholsons expressed opposition to this change in designation. However, on March 10, 2020, following significant pressure from residents and advocacy groups, the City Council approved this new designation for all 58 mobilehome communities in the City of San Jose, including Westwinds. In addition to requirements imposed by California state and San Jose municipal law, the change in designation requires, among other things, a further amendment to the general plan to a different land use designation by the City Council prior to any change in use.

The Nicholsons filed a demand for arbitration on January 28, 2020, which they subsequently amended, seeking (i) a declaration that the Operating Partnership, as the “owner and manager” of Westwinds, is “required by the Ground Leases, and State and local law to deliver the Property free of any encumbrances or third-party claims at the expiration of the lease terms,” (ii) that the Operating Partnership anticipatorily breached the ground leases by publicly repudiating any such obligation and (iii) that the Operating Partnership is required to indemnify the Nicholsons with respect to the claims brought by the interested parties in the Superior Court proceeding.

Management's Discussion and Analysis (continued)

On February 3, 2020, the Nicholsons filed a motion in California Superior Court to compel arbitration and to stay the Superior Court litigation, which motion was heard on June 25, 2020. On July 29, 2020, the Superior Court issued a final order denying the Nicholsons' motion to compel arbitration. The Nicholsons filed a notice of appeal on August 7, 2020, which appeal was heard on February 1, 2022. On February 4, 2022, the California Court of Appeal affirmed the Superior Court’s order denying the Nicholsons' motion to compel arbitration. On February 22, 2022, the Nicholsons filed a petition for rehearing, which the Court of Appeal denied on March 2, 2022. On March 16, 2022, the Nicholsons filed a petition for review with the California Supreme Court, which the California Supreme Court denied on April 20, 2022. On May 18, 2022, the Nicholsons filed a cross complaint alleging that the Operating Partnership is obligated to deliver Westwinds free and clear of encumbrances and in good condition and repair. The cross complaint asserts that it is no longer feasible for the Operating Partnership to cure its alleged breaches given that the ground leases terminate on August 31, 2022. The Nicholsons filed a demurrer to our complaint which was denied by the Superior Court.

On July 19, 2022, the Nicholsons sent two notices of default to the Operating Partnership, one related to Westwinds and the other related to Nicholson Plaza, the adjacent shopping center. The notices generally assert that the Operating Partnership failed to maintain or repair certain infrastructure and improvements at Westwinds and Nicholson Plaza. The Operating Partnership disputes the contention that it did not maintain Westwinds and Nicholson Plaza in compliance with the terms of the applicable ground leases.

The arbitration that was previously stayed pursuant to an agreement between the Operating Partnership and the Nicholsons was set for a hearing on October 31, 2022 with respect to the Nicholsons’ claim that the Operating Partnership is required to indemnify the Nicholsons with respect to the claims brought by the interested parties in the Superior Court proceeding and a claim by the Operating Partnership for recovery of fees incurred in connection with the Nicholsons’ failed motion to compel arbitration.

On October 6, 2022, the parties to the Superior Court proceeding as well as the arbitration entered into a binding agreement pursuant to which, among other things, the parties agreed to dismiss with prejudice all claims pending in the Superior Court and in the arbitration; however, the Nicholsons reserved their rights to pursue their claim that the Operating Partnership failed to maintain or repair certain infrastructure and improvements at Westwinds and Nicholson Plaza. To the extent the Nicholsons pursue such claim, we intend to vigorously defend our interests. The parties are in the process of further documenting and implementing the settlement agreement.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of September 30, 2022, we have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Refer to Part II. Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our 2021 Form 10-K for a discussion of our critical accounting policies. There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates during the quarter ended September 30, 2022.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. When used, words such as “anticipate,” “expect,” “believe,” “project,” “intend,” “may be” and “will be” and similar words or phrases, or the negative thereof, unless the context requires otherwise, are intended to identify forward-looking statements and may include without limitation, information regarding our expectations, goals or intentions regarding the future, and the expected effect of our acquisitions. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to:

•our ability to control costs and real estate market conditions, our ability to retain customers, the actual use of Sites by customers and our success in acquiring new customers at our Properties (including those that we may acquire);

•our ability to maintain historical or increase future rental rates and occupancy with respect to properties currently owned or that we may acquire;

•our ability to attract and retain customers entering, renewing and upgrading membership subscriptions;

•our assumptions about rental and home sales markets;

•our ability to manage counterparty risk;

•our ability to renew our insurance policies at existing rates and on consistent terms;

•home sales results could be impacted by the ability of potential homebuyers to sell their existing residences as well as by financial, credit and capital markets volatility;

40

Management's Discussion and Analysis (continued)

•results from home sales and occupancy will continue to be impacted by local economic conditions, including an adequate supply of homes at reasonable costs, lack of affordable manufactured home financing and competition from alternative housing options including site-built single-family housing;

•impact of government intervention to stabilize site-built single-family housing and not manufactured housing;

•effective integration of recent acquisitions and our estimates regarding the future performance of recent acquisitions;

•the completion of future transactions in their entirety, if any, and timing and effective integration with respect thereto;

•unanticipated costs or unforeseen liabilities associated with recent acquisitions;

•the effect of Hurricane Ian on our business including, but not limited to the following: (i) the timing and cost of recovery, (ii) the impact of the condition of properties and homes on occupancy demand and related rent revenue and (iii) the timing and amount of insurance proceeds;

•our ability to obtain financing or refinance existing debt on favorable terms or at all;

•the effect of inflation and interest rates;

•the effect from any breach of our, or any of our vendors’, data management systems;

•the dilutive effects of issuing additional securities;

•the outcome of pending or future lawsuits or actions brought by or against us, including those disclosed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission; and

•other risks indicated from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

In addition, these forward-looking statements are subject to risks related to the COVID-19 pandemic, many of which are unknown, including the duration of the pandemic, the extent of the adverse health impact on the general population and on our residents, customers, and employees in particular, its impact on the employment rate and the economy, the extent and impact of governmental responses, and the impact of operational changes we have implemented and may implement in response to the pandemic.

These forward-looking statements are based on management’s present expectations and beliefs about future events. As with any projection or forecast, these statements are inherently susceptible to uncertainty and changes in circumstances. We are under no obligation to, and expressly disclaim any obligation to, update or alter our forward-looking statements whether as a result of such changes, new information, subsequent events or otherwise.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We disclosed a quantitative and qualitative analysis regarding market risk in Part II, Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk in our 2021 Form 10-K. There have been no material changes in the assumptions used or results obtained regarding market risk since December 31, 2021.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2022. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to give reasonable assurances to the timely collection, evaluation and disclosure of information relating to us that would potentially be subject to disclosure under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder as of September 30, 2022. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the quarter ended September 30, 2022, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Organization and Basis of Presentation

Organization and Basis of Presentation

Equity LifeStyle Properties, Inc. (“ELS”), a Maryland corporation, together with MHC Operating Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”) and its other consolidated subsidiaries (the “Subsidiaries”), are referred to herein as “we,” “us,” and “our”. We are a fully integrated owner of lifestyle-oriented properties (“Properties”) consisting of property operations and home sales and rental operations primarily within manufactured home (“MH”) and recreational vehicle (“RV”) communities and marinas. We have a unique business model where we own the land which we lease to customers who own manufactured homes and cottages, RVs and/or boats either on a long-term or short-term basis. Our customers may lease individual developed areas (“Sites”) or enter into right-to-use contracts, also known as membership subscriptions, which provide them access to specific Properties for limited stays.

Our Properties are owned primarily by the Operating Partnership and managed internally by affiliates of the Operating Partnership. ELS is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, has exclusive responsibility and discretion in management and control of the Operating Partnership and held a 95.3% interest as of September 30, 2022. As the general partner with control, ELS is the primary beneficiary of, and therefore consolidates, the Operating Partnership.

Equity method of accounting is applied to entities in which ELS does not have a controlling interest or for variable interest entities in which ELS is not considered the primary beneficiary, but with respect to which it can exercise significant influence over operations and major decisions. Our exposure to losses associated with unconsolidated joint ventures is primarily limited to the carrying value of these investments. Accordingly, distributions from a joint venture in excess of our carrying value are recognized in earnings.

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and regulations for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. All adjustments to the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are of a normal, recurring nature and, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of results for these interim periods. Revenues and expenses are subject to seasonal fluctuations and accordingly, quarterly interim results may not be indicative of full year results. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified on our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements to conform with current year presentation.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(a)    Revenue Recognition

Our revenue streams are predominantly derived from customers renting our Sites or entering into membership subscriptions. Leases with customers renting our Sites are accounted for as operating leases. The rental income associated with these leases is accounted for in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842, Leases, and is recognized over the term of the respective lease or the length of a customer’s stay. MH Sites are generally leased on an annual basis to residents who own or lease factory-built homes, including manufactured homes. RV and marina Sites are leased to those who generally have an RV, factory-built cottage, boat or other unit placed on the site, including those customers renting marina dry storage slips. Annual Sites are leased on an annual basis, including those Northern Properties that are open for the summer season. Seasonal Sites are leased to customers generally for one to six months. Transient Sites are leased to customers on a short-term basis. We do not separate expenses reimbursed by our customers (“utility recoveries”) from the associated rental income as we meet the practical expedient criteria to combine the lease and non-lease components. We assessed the criteria and concluded that the timing and pattern of transfer for rental income and the associated utility recoveries are the same and, as our leases qualify as operating leases, we account for and present rental income and utility recoveries as a single component under Rental income in our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. In addition, customers may lease homes that are located in our communities. These leases are accounted for as operating leases. Rental income derived from customers leasing homes is also accounted for in accordance with ASC 842, Leases and is recognized over the term of the respective lease. The allowance for credit losses related to the collectability of lease receivables is presented as a reduction to Rental income. Lease receivables are presented within Other assets, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are net of an allowance for credit losses. The estimate for credit losses is a result of our ongoing assessments and evaluations of collectability, including historical loss experience, current market conditions and future expectations in forecasting credit losses.

Annual membership subscriptions and membership upgrade sales are accounted for in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Membership subscriptions provide our customers access to specific Properties for limited stays at a specified group of Properties. Payments are deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the one-year period during which access to Sites at certain Properties is provided. Membership subscription receivables are presented within Other assets, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are net of an allowance for credit losses. Membership upgrades grant certain additional access rights to the customer and require non-refundable upfront payments. The non-refundable upfront payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over 20 years. Financed upgrade sales (also known as contract receivables) are presented within Notes receivable, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are net of an allowance for credit losses.

Income from home sales is recognized when the earnings process is complete. The earnings process is complete when the home has been delivered, the purchaser has accepted the home and title has transferred. We have a limited program under which we purchase loans made by an unaffiliated lender to homebuyers at our Properties. Financed home sales (also known as chattel loans) are presented within Notes receivable, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are net of an allowance for credit losses.

(b)    Restricted Cash

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, restricted cash consisted of $23.2 million and $29.3 million, respectively, primarily related to cash reserved for customer deposits and escrows for insurance and real estate taxes.

The leases entered into between the customer and us for rental of a Site are renewable upon the consent of both parties or, in some instances, as provided by statute. Long-term leases that are non-cancelable by the tenants are in effect at certain Properties. Rental rate increases at these Properties are primarily a function of increases in the Consumer Price Index, taking into consideration certain conditions. Additionally, periodic market rate adjustments are made as deemed appropriate. In addition, certain state statutes allow entry into long-term agreements that effectively modify lease terms related to rent amounts and increases over the term of the agreements. The following table presents future minimum rents expected to be received under long-term non-cancelable tenant leases, as well as those leases that are subject to long-term agreements governing rent payments and increases:

We lease land under non-cancelable operating leases at 10 Properties expiring at various dates between 2028 and 2054. The Westwinds ground leases expired August 31, 2022, for additional information see Part I. Item 1. Financial Statements —Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies. The majority of the leases have terms requiring fixed payments plus additional rents based on a percentage of gross revenues at those Properties. We also have other operating leases, primarily office space, expiring at various dates through 2032. For the quarters ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, total operating lease payments were $2.7 million and $2.9 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, total operating lease payments were $8.2 million and $8.0 million, respectively.

The following table summarizes our minimum future rental payments, excluding variable costs, which are discounted by our incremental borrowing rate to calculate the lease liability for our operating leases as of September 30, 2022:

Mortgage notes payable, excluding deferred financing costs	$	2,027,030	$	2,734,310	$	2,743,527	$	2,654,086

The weighted average interest rate on our outstanding mortgage indebtedness, including the impact of premium/discount amortization and loan cost amortization on mortgage indebtedness, as of September 30, 2022, was approximately 3.7% per annum. The debt bears interest at stated rates ranging from 2.4% to 8.9% per annum and matures on various dates ranging from 2023 to 2041. The debt encumbered a total of 114 and 117 of our Properties as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and the gross carrying value of such Properties was approximately $2,851.5 million and $2,817.5 million, as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we repaid $14.2 million of principal on two mortgage loans that were due to mature in 2022, incurring $0.5 million of prepayment penalties. These mortgage loans had a weighted average interest rate of 5.25% per annum and were secured by three RV communities.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we entered into a $200.0 million secured refinancing transaction. The loan is secured by one MH community, has a fixed interest rate of 3.36% per annum and has a maturity date of May 1, 2034.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

We record all derivatives at fair value. Our objective in utilizing interest rate derivatives is to add stability to our interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. We do not enter into derivatives for speculative purposes.

We have a three-year LIBOR Swap Agreement (the “Swap”) allowing us to trade the variable interest rate associated with our variable rate debt for a fixed interest rate. The Swap has a notional amount of $300.0 million of outstanding principal with a fixed interest rate of 0.39% per annum and matures on March 25, 2024. Based on the leverage as of September 30, 2022, our spread over LIBOR was 1.40% resulting in an estimated all-in interest rate of 1.79% per annum.

Our derivative financial instrument was classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The following table presents the fair value of our derivative financial instrument:

		As of September 30,		As of December 31,
(amounts in thousands)	Balance Sheet Location	2022		2021
Interest Rate Swap	Other assets, net	$	20,474	$	3,524

The following table presents the effect of our derivative financial instrument on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income:

Derivatives in Cash Flow Hedging Relationship	Amount of (gain)/loss recognized in OCI on derivative for the nine months ended September 30,				Location of (gain)/ loss reclassified from accumulated OCI into income	Amount of (gain)/loss reclassified from accumulated OCI into income for the nine months ended September 30,

Interest Rate Swap	$	(18,479)	$	142	Interest Expense	$	(1,527)	$	467

During the next twelve months, we estimate that $11.7 million will be reclassified as a decrease to interest expense. This estimate may be subject to change as the underlying LIBOR changes. We determined that no adjustment was necessary for non-performance risk on our derivative obligation. As of September 30, 2022, we had not posted any collateral related to the Swap.

Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments and Contingencies

We are involved in various legal and regulatory proceedings (“Proceedings”) arising in the ordinary course of business. The Proceedings include, but are not limited to, legal claims made by employees, vendors and customers, and notices, consent decrees, information requests, additional permit requirements and other similar enforcement actions by governmental agencies relating to our utility infrastructure, including water and wastewater treatment plants and other waste treatment facilities and electrical systems. Additionally, in the ordinary course of business, our operations are subject to audit by various taxing authorities. Management believes these Proceedings taken together do not represent a material liability. In addition, to the extent any such Proceedings or audits relate to newly acquired Properties, we consider any potential indemnification obligations of sellers in our favor.

The Operating Partnership operated and managed Westwinds, a 720 site mobilehome community, and Nicholson Plaza, an adjacent shopping center, both located in San Jose, California pursuant to ground leases that expired on August 31, 2022 and did not contain extension options. The master lessor of these ground leases, The Nicholson Family Partnership (together with its predecessor in interest, the “Nicholsons”), has expressed a desire to redevelop Westwinds, and in a written communication, they claimed that we were obligated to deliver the property free and clear of any and all subtenancies upon the expiration of the ground leases on August 31, 2022. In connection with any redevelopment, the City of San Jose’s conversion ordinance requires, among other things, that the landowner provide relocation, rental and purchase assistance to the impacted residents.

We believe the Nicholsons’ demand to be unlawful, and on December 30, 2019, the Operating Partnership, together with certain interested parties, filed a complaint in California Superior Court for Santa Clara County, seeking declaratory relief pursuant to which it requested that the Court determine, among other things, that the Operating Partnership had no obligation to deliver the property free and clear of the mobilehome residents upon the expiration of the ground leases. The Operating Partnership and the interested parties filed an amended complaint on January 29, 2020. The Nicholsons filed a demand for arbitration on January 28, 2020, which they subsequently amended, seeking (i) a declaration that the Operating Partnership, as the “owner and manager” of Westwinds, is “required by the Ground Leases, and State and local law to deliver the Property free of any encumbrances or third-party claims at the expiration of the lease terms,” (ii) that the Operating Partnership anticipatorily breached the ground leases by publicly repudiating any such obligation and (iii) that the Operating Partnership is required to indemnify the Nicholsons with respect to the claims brought by the interested parties in the Superior Court proceeding.

On February 3, 2020, the Nicholsons filed a motion in California Superior Court to compel arbitration and to stay the Superior Court litigation, which motion was heard on June 25, 2020. On July 29, 2020, the Superior Court issued a final order denying the Nicholsons' motion to compel arbitration. The Nicholsons filed a notice of appeal on August 7, 2020, which appeal was heard on February 1, 2022. On February 4, 2022, the California Court of Appeal affirmed the Superior Court’s order denying the Nicholsons' motion to compel arbitration. On February 22, 2022, the Nicholsons filed a petition for rehearing, which the Court of Appeal denied on March 2, 2022. On March 16, 2022, the Nicholsons filed a petition for review with the California Supreme Court, which the California Supreme Court denied on April 20, 2022. On May 18, 2022, the Nicholsons filed a cross complaint alleging that the Operating Partnership is obligated to deliver Westwinds free and clear of encumbrances and in good condition and repair. The cross complaint asserts that it is no longer feasible for the Operating Partnership to cure its alleged breaches given that the ground leases terminate on August 31, 2022. The Nicholsons filed a demurrer to our complaint which was denied by the Superior Court.

On July 19, 2022, the Nicholsons sent two notices of default to the Operating Partnership, one related to Westwinds and the other related to Nicholson Plaza, the adjacent shopping center. The notices generally assert that the Operating Partnership failed to maintain or repair certain infrastructure and improvements at Westwinds and Nicholson Plaza. The Operating Partnership disputes the contention that it did not maintain Westwinds and Nicholson Plaza in compliance with the terms of the applicable ground leases.

The arbitration that was previously stayed pursuant to an agreement between the Operating Partnership and the Nicholsons was set for a hearing on October 31, 2022 with respect to the Nicholsons’ claim that the Operating Partnership is required to indemnify the Nicholsons with respect to the claims brought by the interested parties in the Superior Court proceeding and a claim by the Operating Partnership for recovery of fees incurred in connection with the Nicholsons’ failed motion to compel arbitration.

On October 6, 2022, the parties to the Superior Court proceeding as well as the arbitration entered into a binding agreement pursuant to which, among other things, the parties agreed to dismiss with prejudice all claims pending in the Superior Court and in the arbitration; however, the Nicholsons reserved their rights to pursue their claim that the Operating Partnership failed to maintain or repair certain infrastructure and improvements at Westwinds and Nicholson Plaza. To the extent the Nicholsons pursue such claim, we intend to vigorously defend our interests. The parties are in the process of further documenting and implementing the settlement agreement. We do not expect the settlement agreement to have a material impact to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Reportable Segments

We have identified two reportable segments: (i) Property Operations and (ii) Home Sales and Rentals Operations. The Property Operations segment owns and operates land lease Properties and the Home Sales and Rentals Operations segment purchases, sells and leases homes at the Properties. The distribution of the Properties throughout the United States reflects our belief that geographic diversification helps insulate the portfolio from regional economic influences.

All revenues were from external customers and there is no customer who contributed 10% or more of our total revenues during the quarters and nine months ended September 30, 2022 or 2021.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Equity LifeStyle Properties, Inc. (“ELS”), a Maryland corporation, together with MHC Operating Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”) and its other consolidated subsidiaries (the “Subsidiaries”), are referred to herein as “we,” “us,” and “our”. We are a fully integrated owner of lifestyle-oriented properties (“Properties”) consisting of property operations and home sales and rental operations primarily within manufactured home (“MH”) and recreational vehicle (“RV”) communities and marinas. We have a unique business model where we own the land which we lease to customers who own manufactured homes and cottages, RVs and/or boats either on a long-term or short-term basis. Our customers may lease individual developed areas (“Sites”) or enter into right-to-use contracts, also known as membership subscriptions, which provide them access to specific Properties for limited stays.

Our Properties are owned primarily by the Operating Partnership and managed internally by affiliates of the Operating Partnership. ELS is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, has exclusive responsibility and discretion in management and control of the Operating Partnership and held a 95.3% interest as of September 30, 2022. As the general partner with control, ELS is the primary beneficiary of, and therefore consolidates, the Operating Partnership.

Consolidation

Equity method of accounting is applied to entities in which ELS does not have a controlling interest or for variable interest entities in which ELS is not considered the primary beneficiary, but with respect to which it can exercise significant influence over operations and major decisions. Our exposure to losses associated with unconsolidated joint ventures is primarily limited to the carrying value of these investments. Accordingly, distributions from a joint venture in excess of our carrying value are recognized in earnings.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue RecognitionOur revenue streams are predominantly derived from customers renting our Sites or entering into membership subscriptions. Leases with customers renting our Sites are accounted for as operating leases. The rental income associated with these leases is accounted for in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842, Leases, and is recognized over the term of the respective lease or the length of a customer’s stay. MH Sites are generally leased on an annual basis to residents who own or lease factory-built homes, including manufactured homes. RV and marina Sites are leased to those who generally have an RV, factory-built cottage, boat or other unit placed on the site, including those customers renting marina dry storage slips. Annual Sites are leased on an annual basis, including those Northern Properties that are open for the summer season. Seasonal Sites are leased to customers generally for one to six months. Transient Sites are leased to customers on a short-term basis. We do not separate expenses reimbursed by our customers (“utility recoveries”) from the associated rental income as we meet the practical expedient criteria to combine the lease and non-lease components. We assessed the criteria and concluded that the timing and pattern of transfer for rental income and the associated utility recoveries are the same and, as our leases qualify as operating leases, we account for and present rental income and utility recoveries as a single component under Rental income in our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. In addition, customers may lease homes that are located in our communities. These leases are accounted for as operating leases. Rental income derived from customers leasing homes is also accounted for in accordance with ASC 842, Leases and is recognized over the term of the respective lease. The allowance for credit losses related to the collectability of lease receivables is presented as a reduction to Rental income. Lease receivables are presented within Other assets, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are net of an allowance for credit losses. The estimate for credit losses is a result of our ongoing assessments and evaluations of collectability, including historical loss experience, current market conditions and future expectations in forecasting credit losses.

Annual membership subscriptions and membership upgrade sales are accounted for in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Membership subscriptions provide our customers access to specific Properties for limited stays at a specified group of Properties. Payments are deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the one-year period during which access to Sites at certain Properties is provided. Membership subscription receivables are presented within Other assets, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are net of an allowance for credit losses. Membership upgrades grant certain additional access rights to the customer and require non-refundable upfront payments. The non-refundable upfront payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over 20 years. Financed upgrade sales (also known as contract receivables) are presented within Notes receivable, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are net of an allowance for credit losses.

Income from home sales is recognized when the earnings process is complete. The earnings process is complete when the home has been delivered, the purchaser has accepted the home and title has transferred. We have a limited program under which we purchase loans made by an unaffiliated lender to homebuyers at our Properties. Financed home sales (also known as chattel loans) are presented within Notes receivable, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are net of an allowance for credit losses.

Restricted Cash

Restricted CashAs of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, restricted cash consisted of $23.2 million and $29.3 million, respectively, primarily related to cash reserved for customer deposits and escrows for insurance and real estate taxes.
