27 © 20 21 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION . ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. CONFIDENTIAL. Non - GAAP Financial Measures This presentation includes a non - GAAP financial measure, Net Debt to Recurring EBITDA, which is presented on an actual and profo rma basis. A reconciliation of this non - GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP measure appears on the following page. The components of this ratio and their use and utility to management are described further in the section below. In addition, this presentation includes the non - GAAP measure of Annualized Base Rent (“ABR”). ABR represents the annualized amount of contractual minimum rent required by tenant lease agreements, computed on a straight - line basis. ABR is not, and is not intended to be, a presentation in accordance with GA AP. The Company believes annualized contractual minimum rent is useful to management, investors, and other interested parties in anal yzi ng concentrations and leasing activity. Components of Net Debt to Recurring EBITDA EBITDAre is defined by Nareit to mean net income computed in accordance with GAAP, plus interest expense, income tax expense, deprecia ti on and amortization, any gains (or losses) from sales of real estate assets and/or changes in control, any impairment charges on de preciable real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. The Company considers the non - GAAP meas ure of EBITDAre to be a key supplemental measure of the Company's performance and should be considered along with, but not as an alt ern ative to, net income or loss as a measure of the Company's operating performance. The Company considers EBITDAre a key supplemental mea sur e of the Company's operating performance because it provides an additional supplemental measure of the Company's performance and opera tin g cash flow that is widely known by industry analysts, lenders and investors. The Company’s calculation of EBITDAre may not be compa rab le to EBITDAre reported by other REITs that interpret the Nareit definition differently than the Company. Recurring EBITDA The Company defines Recurring EBITDA as EBITDAre with the addback of noncash amortization of above - and below - market lease intangibles, and after adjustments for the run - rate impact of the Company's investment, disposition and leasing activity f or the period presented, as well as adjustments for non - recurring benefits or expenses. The Company considers the non - GAAP measure of Recurrin g EBITDA to be a key supplemental measure of the Company's performance and should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, ne t income or loss as a measure of the Company's operating performance. The Company considers Recurring EBITDA a key supplemental measure o f t he Company's operating performance because it represents the Company's earnings run rate for the period presented and because it is widely followed by industry analysts, lenders and investors. The Company’s calculation of Recurring EBITDA may not be comparable to Re curring EBITDA reported by other companies that have a different interpretation of the definition of Recurring EBITDA. The Company’s ratio o f N et Debt to Recurring EBITDA is used by management as a measure of leverage and may be useful to investors in understanding the Company’s ab ility to service its debt, as well as assess the borrowing capacity of the Company. The Company’s ratio of Net Debt to Recurring EBIT DA is calculated by taking annualized Recurring EBITDA and dividing it by our Net Debt per the consolidated balance sheet. Net Debt The Company defines Net Debt as total debt less cash, cash equivalents and cash held in escrows. The Company considers the no n - GAAP measure of Net Debt to be a key supplemental measure of the Company's overall liquidity, capital structure and leverage. Th e Company considers Net Debt a key supplemental measure because it provides industry analysts, lenders and investors useful information in understanding our financial condition. The Company’s calculation of Net Debt may not be comparable to Net Debt reported by other REITs that in terpret the definition differently than the Company. The Company presents Net Debt on both an actual and proforma basis, assuming the Antic ipated Net Proceeds from Outstanding Forwards are used to pay down debt. The Company believes the proforma measure may be useful to inve sto rs in understanding the potential effect of the Anticipated Net Proceeds from Outstanding Forwards on the Company’s capital structu re, its future borrowing capacity, and its ability to service its debt. Anticipated Net Proceeds from Outstanding Forwards Since the first quarter of 2018, the Company has utilized forward sale agreements to sell shares of common stock. Selling common stock through forward sale agreements enables the Company to set the price of such sha res upon pricing the offering (subject to certain adjustments) while delaying the issuance of such shares and the receipt of the net p roc eeds by the Company. Given the Company’s frequent use of forward sale agreements, the Company considers the non - GAAP measure of Anticipated Net Proceeds from Outstanding Forwards to be a key supplemental measure of the Company's overall liquidity, capital structure and le verage. The Company defines Anticipated Net Proceeds from Outstanding Forwards as the number of shares outstanding under forward sale agr eem ents at the end of each quarter, multiplied by the applicable forward sale price for each agreement, respectively.
