Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. | Basis of Presentation |
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Agree Realty Corporation (the “Company”) for the six months ended June 30, 2012 have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for audited financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2011 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012 or for any other interim period. The results of operations of properties that have either been disposed of or are classified as held for sale are reported as discontinued operations. As a result of these discontinued operations, certain of the 2011 balances have been reclassified to conform to the 2012 presentation. For further information, refer to the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
2. | Stock Based Compensation |
The Company estimates the fair value of restricted stock and stock option grants at the date of grant and amortizes those amounts into expense on a straight line basis or amount vested, if greater, over the appropriate vesting period.
As of June 30, 2012, there was $4,887,000 of unrecognized compensation costs related to the outstanding shares of restricted stock, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 3.55 years. The Company used a 0% discount factor and forfeiture rate for determining the fair value of restricted stock. The forfeiture rate was based on historical results and trends.
The holder of a restricted stock award is generally entitled at all times on and after the date of issuance of the restricted stock to exercise the rights of a stockholder of the Company, including the right to vote the shares and the right to receive dividends on the shares.
Shares Outstanding | Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value | |||||||
Unvested restricted stock at January 1, 2012 | 216,920 | $ | 21.74 | |||||

3. | Earnings Per Share |

4. | Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
As of June 30, 2012, the impact of recent accounting pronouncements is not considered to be material.
5. | Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity |
On January 2, 2009, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement for a notional amount of $24,501,280, effective on January 2, 2009 and ending on July 1, 2013. The notional amount decreases over the term to match the outstanding balance of the hedged borrowing. The Company entered into this derivative instrument to hedge against the risk of changes in future cash flows related to changes in interest rates on $24,501,280 of the total variable-rate borrowings outstanding. Under the terms of the interest rate swap agreement, the Company will receive from the counterparty interest on the notional amount based on 1.5% plus one-month LIBOR and will pay to the counterparty a fixed rate of 3.744%. This swap effectively converted $24,501,280 of variable-rate borrowings to fixed-rate borrowings beginning on January 2, 2009 and through July 1, 2013.
On April 24, 2012, the Company entered into a forward starting interest rate swap agreement, for the same variable rate loan, as extended, for a notional amount of $22,268,358, effective on July 1, 2013 and ending on May 1, 2019. The notional amount decreases over the term to match the outstanding balance of the hedged borrowing. The Company entered into this derivative instrument to hedge against the risk of changes in future cash flows related to changes in interest rates on $22,268,358 of the total variable rate borrowings outstanding. Under the terms of the interest rate swap agreement, the Company will receive from the counterparty interest on the notional amount based on one-month LIBOR and will pay to the counterparty a fixed rate of 1.92%. This swap effectively converted $22,268,358 of variable-rate borrowings to fixed-rate borrowings beginning on July 1, 2013 and through May 1, 2019.
Companies are required to recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value on the balance sheet. The Company has designated these derivative instruments as cash flow hedges. As such, changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument are recorded as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) (“OCI”) for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to the extent of effectiveness. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivative instrument is recognized in interest expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company has determined these derivative instruments to be effective hedges.
The Company does not use derivative instruments for trading or other speculative purposes and did not have any other derivative instruments or hedging activities as of June 30, 2012.
6. | Fair Value Measurements |
Certain of the Company’s assets and liabilities are disclosed at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the Company uses various valuation methods including market, income and cost approaches. The assumptions used in the application of these valuation methods are developed from the perspective of market participants pricing the asset or liability. Inputs used in the valuation methods can be either readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable inputs. Whenever possible the Company attempts to utilize valuation methods that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs. Based on the operability of the inputs used in the valuation methods, the Company is required to provide the following information according to the fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Assets and liabilities measured, reported and/or disclosed at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following six categories:
7 |
AGREE REALTY CORPORATION
Level 1 – Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.
The table below sets forth the Company’s fair value hierarchy for liabilities measured or disclosed at fair value as of June 30, 2012.
Liability: | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Carrying Value | ||||||||||||
Interest rate swaps | $ | - | $ | 1,156,604 | $ | - | $ | 1,156,604 | ||||||||
Fixed rate mortgage | $ | - | $ | - | $ | 41,253,095 | $ | 38,911,508 | ||||||||
Variable rate mortgage | $ | - | $ | - | $ | 21,861,282 | $ | 22,882,778 | ||||||||
Variable rate debt | $ | - | $ | 44,434,406 | $ | - | $ | 44,434,406 |
The carrying amounts of the Company’s short-term financial instruments, which consist of cash, cash equivalents, receivables, and accounts payable, approximate their fair values. The fair value of the interest rate swaps were derived using estimates to settle the interest rate swap agreements, which is based on the net present value of expected future cash flows on each leg of the swaps utilizing market-based inputs and discount rates reflecting the risks involved. The fair value of fixed and variable rate mortgages was derived using the present value of future mortgage payments based on estimated current market interest rates. The fair value of variable rate debt is estimated to be equal to the face value of the debt because the interest rates are floating and is considered to approximate fair value.

As of December 31, 2011, the Company had four mortgaged properties that were formerly leased to Borders, Inc. (“Borders”) that served as collateral for four non-recourse loans, which were cross-defaulted and cross-collateralized (the “Crossed Loans”). Directly or indirectly because of the Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing of Borders in February 2011, the Company was in default on the Crossed Loans as of December 31, 2011.
10 |
AGREE REALTY CORPORATION
The Crossed Loans had an aggregate principal outstanding of approximately $9.2 million as of December 31, 2011 and were secured by the former Borders stores in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Columbia, Maryland, Germantown, Maryland, and one of the former Borders stores in Omaha, Nebraska. As of December 31, 2011, the net book value of the four mortgaged properties was approximately $9.1 million, and annualized base rent for the four mortgaged properties, one of which was occupied, and accounted for approximately $.5 million, or 1.4% of the Company’s annualized base rent as of December 31, 2011. The lender declared all four Crossed Loans in default and accelerated the Company’s obligations thereunder. As a result of the Borders liquidation program, the Company did not have sufficient cash flow from the properties to continue to pay the debt service on the Crossed Loans and elected not to pay the debt service.
On March 6, 2012, the Company conveyed the four mortgaged properties, which were subject to the Crossed Loans, to the lender pursuant to a consensual deed-in-lieu-of-foreclosure process that satisfied the loans, which had an aggregate principal outstanding of approximately $9.2 million as of December 2011.
In June 2012, the Company entered into an amendment and restatement of the mortgage loan in the amount of $22,882,778 to provide for an extension of the maturity date to May 14, 2017, with an option to extend for two years to May 14, 2019, subject to certain conditions. Borrowings under the loan bear interest at LIBOR plus a spread of 170 basis points and require monthly principal repayments.
In May 2012, the Company assumed a loan in the amount of $9,640,000 in conjunction with the acquisition of a property. The loan matures June 2014 and carries a 5.07% interest rate.
Future scheduled annual maturities of mortgages payable for years ending June 30 are as follows: 2013 - $3,345,727; 2014 - $12,738,876; 2015 - $3,573,277; 2016 - $3,813,468; 2017 - $23,354,309 and $14,968,629 thereafter. The weighted average interest rate at June 30, 2012 was 5.29%.
10. | Dividends and Distributions Payable |
On June 5, 2012, the Company declared a dividend of $.40 per common share for the quarter ended June 30, 2012. The holders of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”) were entitled to an equal distribution per OP Unit held as of June 30, 2012. The dividend and distributions payable are recorded as liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2012. The dividend has been reflected as a reduction of stockholders’ equity and the distribution has been reflected as a reduction of the limited partners’ non-controlling interest. The amounts were paid July 10, 2012.
11. | Deferred Revenue |
In July 2004, the Company’s tenant in a joint venture property located in Boynton Beach, FL repaid $4.0 million that had been contributed by the Company’s joint venture partner. As a result of this repayment the Company became the sole member of the limited liability company holding the property. Total assets of the property were approximately $4.0 million. The Company has treated the $4.0 million repayment of the capital contribution as deferred revenue and accordingly, will recognize rental income over the term of the related leases.
The remaining deferred revenue of approximately $2.2 million will be recognized as minimum rents over approximately 4.7 years.
12. | Discontinued Operations |
During 2012, the Company has sold three non-core properties, a vacant office property for approximately $650,000, a vacant single tenant property for $2,750,000 and a Kmart anchored shopping center in Charlevoix, Michigan for $3,500,000. In addition, the Company conveyed the four mortgaged properties, which were subject to the Crossed Loans, to the lender pursuant to a consensual deed-in-lieu-of-foreclosure process that satisfied the loans, which had an aggregate principal amount outstanding of approximately $9.2 million as of December 31, 2011. See Note 9 for more information on the Crossed Loans.
During 2011, the Company sold two non-core single tenant properties in January 2011 for approximately $6.5 million, and a single tenant property in December 2011 for approximately $1.5 million. In addition, the Company conveyed the former Borders corporate headquarters property in Ann Arbor, Michigan, which was subject to a non-recourse mortgage loan in default, to the lender pursuant to a consensual deed-in-lieu-of-foreclosure process during December 2011 that satisfied the loan of approximately $5.5 million. The Company also entered into a settlement agreement that provided for the termination of the ground lease on a former Borders property in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and conveyed the retail portion of the property owned by the Company to the ground lessor.

The results of operations for these properties are presented as discontinued operations in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income. The revenues for the properties were $127,522 and $501,389 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, and $1,089,492 and $2,522,359 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively. The expenses for the properties were $(5,459) and $230,136 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, and $674,337 and $1,296,785 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively.
The Company elected to not allocate consolidated interest expense to the discontinued operations where the debt is not directly attributed to or related to the discontinued operations. Interest expense that was directly attributable to the discontinued operations was $0 for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, and $147,644 and $443,017 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, and is included in the above expense amounts.
The results of income from discontinued operations allocable to non-controlling interest was $38,144 and $70,361 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, and $14,139 and $41,764 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively.
13. | Purchase Accounting for Acquisitions of Real Estate |
Acquired real estate assets have been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and accordingly, the results of operations are included in the consolidated statements of income from the respective dates of acquisition. The Company allocates the purchase price to (i) land and buildings based on management’s internally prepared estimates and (ii) identifiable intangible assets or liabilities generally consisting of above-market and below-market in-place leases and in-place leases. The Company uses estimates of fair value based on estimated cash flows, using appropriate discount rates, and other valuation techniques, including management’s analysis of comparable properties in the existing portfolio, to allocate the purchase price to acquired tangible and intangible assets.
The estimated fair value of above-market and below-market in-place leases for acquired properties is recorded based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease.
The aggregate fair value of other intangible assets consisting of in-place, at market leases, is estimated based on internally developed methods to determine the respective property values and are included in lease intangible costs in the consolidated balance sheets. Factors considered by management in their analysis include an estimate of costs to execute similar leases and operating costs saved.
During 2012, the Company has purchased seven retail assets for approximately $28 million with a weighted average capitalization rate of 8.59% to obtain 100% control of the assets. The weighted average capitalization rate for these single tenant net leased properties was calculated by dividing the property net operating income by the purchase price. Property net operating income is defined as the straight-line rent for the base term of the lease less property level expense (if any) that is not recoverable from the tenant. The cost of the aggregate acquisitions was allocated as follows: $14 million to land, $4 million to buildings and improvements and $10 million to lease intangible costs. The acquisitions were cash purchases and there were no contingent considerations associated with these acquisitions. In one acquisition, the Company assumed debt of approximately $9.6 million.
Total revenues of $339,000 and income before discontinued operations of $45,000 are included in the consolidated income statement, for the six months ended June 30, 2012, for the aggregate 2012 acquisitions.
The following pro forma total revenue and income before discontinued operations for the 2012 acquisitions in aggregate, assumes the acquisitions had taken place on January 1, 2012 for the 2012 pro forma information, and on January 1, 2011 for the 2011 pro forma information (in thousands):

The fair values of intangible assets acquired are amortized to depreciation and amortization on the consolidated statements of income over the remaining term of the respective leases. The weighted average amortization period for the lease intangible costs is 18.8 years.
14. | Common Stock Offering |
On January 27, 2012, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of 1,300,000 shares of common stock at a public offering price of $24.75 per share. On February 1, 2012, the Company sold 195,000 additional shares of common stock pursuant to the full exercise of the underwriters’ overallotment option. The offering raised approximately $35 million in net proceeds, after deducting the underwriting discount and other expenses. The Company used the net proceeds of the offering to pay down amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility and for general corporate purposes.
15. | Subsequent Events |
On July, 19, 2012, the Company acquired a portfolio of three convenience and fuel stores located in Pennsylvania, Delaware, and New Jersey. The cost of the portfolio was approximately $14,200,000 including the assumption of $8,580,000 of non-recourse mortgage debt. The assumed debt matures in June 2016 and carries a 6.56% interest rate. In addition, on July 25, 2012, the Company acquired an auto service store in South Carolina at the cost of approximately $2,400,000. For both of these acquisitions, the purchase price allocation has not been finalized.

Overview
Agree Realty Corporation is a fully-integrated, self-administered and self-managed REIT. In this report, the terms “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” and similar terms refer to Agree Realty Corporation and/or its majority owned operating partnership, Agree Limited Partnership (“Operating Partnership”) and/or its majority owned and controlled subsidiaries, including its qualified taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRS”), as the context may require. Our assets are held by and all of our operations are conducted through, directly or indirectly, the Operating Partnership, of which we are the sole general partner and in which we held a 97.05% and 96.59% interest as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Under the partnership agreement of the Operating Partnership, we, as the sole general partner, have exclusive responsibility and discretion in the management and control of the Operating Partnership. We are operating so as to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes.
We are primarily engaged in the acquisition and development of single tenant properties net leased to industry leading retail tenants. We were incorporated in December 1993 to continue and expand the business founded in 1971 by our current Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, Richard Agree. We specialize in acquiring and developing single tenant net leased retail properties for industry leading retail tenants. As of June 30, 2012, approximately 96% of our annualized base rent was derived from national and regional tenants and approximately 50% of our annualized base rent was derived from our top three tenants: Walgreens Co. (“Walgreens”) – 33%; Kmart Corporation (“Kmart”) – 10% and CVS Caremark Corporation (“CVS”) – 7%.

AGREE REALTY CORPORATION
As of June 30, 2012, our portfolio consisted of 88 properties, located in 23 states containing an aggregate of approximately 3.4 million square feet of gross leasable area (“GLA”). As of June 30, 2012, our portfolio included 77 freestanding single tenant net leased properties and 11 community shopping centers that were 97% leased in aggregate with a weighted average lease term of approximately 12 years remaining. All of our freestanding property tenants and the majority of our community shopping center tenants have triple-net leases, which require the tenant to be responsible for property operating expenses, including property taxes, insurance and maintenance. We believe this strategy provides a generally consistent source of income and cash for distributions.
During the period from July 1, 2012 to December 31, 2012, we have three leases that are scheduled to expire assuming that the tenants do not exercise renewal options or terminate their leases prior to the contractual expiration date. These leases represent 6,836 square feet of GLA and $49,548 of annualized base rent. During the first quarter of 2012, Kmart exercised options to extend the lease expiration date from September 2012 to September 2014 for two leases amounting to 142,700 square feet. In addition, during the second quarter of 2012, Best Buy extended their lease from January 2013 to January 31, 2016 in 52,000 square feet.
We expect to continue to grow our asset base through the development and acquisition of single tenant net leased retail properties that are leased on a long-term basis to industry leading retail tenants. Historically we have focused on development because we believed, based on the historical returns we have been able to achieve, it generally has provided us a higher return on investment than the acquisition of similarly located properties. However, beginning in 2010, we commenced a strategic acquisition program to acquire retail properties net leased to industry leading retail tenants. Since our initial public offering in 1994, we have developed 55 of our 88 properties, including 44 of our 77 freestanding single tenant properties and all 11 of our community shopping centers. As of June 30, 2012, the properties that we developed accounted for 70% of our annualized base rent. We expect to continue to expand our existing tenant relationships and diversify our tenant base to include other quality industry leading retail tenants through the development and acquisition of net leased properties.
In 2012, we announced a development project in Rancho Cordova, California for Walgreens and a development project in Osceola County, Florida for Wawa. Additionally, we have entered into two signed leases with Wawa on sites in central Florida, a development project in Venice, Florida for JPMorgan Chase and the expansion of Miner’s Super One Foods at our Ironwood Commons Center.
The following should be read in conjunction with the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements of Agree Realty Corporation, including the respective notes thereto, which are included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
As of June 30, 2012, the impact of recent accounting pronouncements on our business is not considered to be material.
Critical Accounting Policies
Critical accounting policies are those that are both significant to the overall presentation of our financial condition and results of operations and require management to make difficult, complex or subjective judgments. For example, significant estimates and assumptions have been made with respect to revenue recognition, capitalization of costs related to real estate investments, potential impairment of real estate investments, operating cost reimbursements, and taxable income.
Minimum rental income attributable to leases is recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Certain leases provide for additional percentage rents based on tenants’ sales volumes. These percentage rents are recognized when determinable by us.
Real estate assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. All costs related to planning, development and construction of buildings prior to the date they become operational, including interest and real estate taxes during the construction period, are capitalized for financial reporting purposes and recorded as property under development until construction has been completed. The viability of all projects under construction or development is regularly evaluated under applicable accounting requirements, including requirements relating to abandonment of assets or changes in use. To the extent a project, or individual components of the project, are no longer considered to have value, the related capitalized costs are charged against operations. Subsequent to the completion of construction, expenditures for property maintenance are charged to operations as incurred, while significant renovations are capitalized. Depreciation of the buildings is recorded in accordance with the straight-line method using an estimated useful life of 40 years.

AGREE REALTY CORPORATION
We evaluate real estate for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable through estimated undiscounted future cash flows from the use of these assets. When any such impairment exists, the related assets will be written down to fair value and such excess carrying value is charged to income. The expected cash flows of a project are dependent on estimates and other factors subject to change, including (1) changes in the national, regional, and/or local economic climates, (2) competition from other shopping centers, stores, clubs, mailings, and the internet, (3) increases in operating costs, (4) bankruptcy and/or other changes in the condition of third parties, including tenants, (5) expected holding period, and (6) availability of credit. These factors could cause our expected future cash flows from a project to change, and, as a result, an impairment could be considered to have occurred.
Substantially all of our leases contain provisions requiring tenants to pay as additional rent a proportionate share of operating expenses (“operating cost reimbursements”) including real estate taxes, repairs and maintenance and insurance. The related revenue from tenant billings is recognized in the same period the expense is recorded.
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) since our 1994 tax year. As a result, we are not subject to federal income taxes to the extent that we distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income to our stockholders and satisfy certain other requirements defined in the Code.
We have established TRS entities pursuant to the provisions of the REIT Modernization Act. Our TRS entities are able to engage in activities resulting in income that previously would have been disqualified from being eligible REIT income under the federal income tax regulations. As a result, certain of our activities which occur within our TRS entities are subject to federal and state income taxes. As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had accrued a deferred income tax amount of $705,000. In addition, we have recognized income tax expense of $4,000 and $174,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $8,000 and $276,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $236,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011.
Results of Operations
Comparison of Three Months Ended June 30, 2012 to Three Months Ended June 30, 2011
Minimum rental revenue increased $1,204,000, or 17%, to $8,497,000 in 2012, compared to $7,293,000 in 2011. Rental revenue increased $1,016,000 due to the acquisition of 15 single tenant net leased properties subsequent to March 31, 2011. Rental revenue increased $188,000 as a result of rent changes net of a decrease of $87,000 due to the impact of the Borders, Inc. (“Borders”) bankruptcy.
Percentage rents were $7,600 in 2012 compared to $5,400 in 2011.
Operating cost reimbursements increased $30,000, or 4%, to $703,000 in 2012, compared to $673,000 in 2011. The increase is partially due to higher recoveries of real estate taxes.
We earned development fee income of $483,000 in 2011 related to a project in California. There were no development fee projects in the second quarter of 2012 and no additional development fee projects are currently anticipated.
Other income was $28,000 in 2012, compared to $61,000 in 2011.
Real estate taxes were $602,000 in 2012, compared to $590,000 in 2011.
Property operating expenses (shopping center maintenance, snow removal, insurance and utilities) decreased $58,000, or 17%, to $286,000 in 2012, compared to $344,000 in 2011. The decrease was the result of a decrease in shopping center maintenance costs of $37,000, a decrease in utility costs of $8,000 including utilities for vacant spaces, and a decrease in snow removal costs of $28,000, offset by an increase in insurance costs of $15,000 in 2012.

Income from discontinued operations was $133,000 in 2012 compared to $415,000 in 2011, as a result of the sale of two properties, one in May and another in June of 2012, the conveyance of four former Borders properties to the lender in March 2012, one of which was occupied, and the sale of the Ann Arbor office space which was not occupied. In addition, in December 2011, we sold one property, conveyed the former Borders corporate headquarters to the lender, and terminated the ground lease on a property and conveyed a portion of the property to the ground lessor.
Our net income increased $1,267,000, or 33%, to $5,090,000 in 2012 from $3,823,000 in 2011 as a result of the foregoing factors.

Other income was $45,000 in 2012, compared to $84,000 in 2011.
Real estate taxes increased $26,000, or 2%, to $1,184,000 in 2012, compared to $1,158,000 in 2011. The change was the result of an increase of $50,000 related to properties leased to Borders which taxes were formerly paid directly by Borders, and other decreases of $24,000.
Property operating expenses (shopping center maintenance, snow removal, insurance and utilities) decreased $50,000, or 7%, to $692,000 in 2012, compared to $742,000 in 2011.

The decrease in general and administrative expenses was the result of decreased income tax expense in our TRS entities of $268,000 and decreased professional fees of $117,000 offset by increased employee costs of $219,000 and other costs of $39,000. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of total rental income (minimum and percentage rents) decreased from 16.97% for 2011 to 16.44% for 2012.
Depreciation and amortization increased $562,000, or 20%, to $3,395,000 in 2012, compared to $2,833,000 in 2011. The increase was the result of the acquisition of 17 properties in 2011 and 2012.
Interest expense increased $214,000, or 10%, to $2,282,000 in 2012, compared to $2,068,000 in 2011. The increase in interest expense was a result of the higher level of borrowings due to the acquisition of properties.
We recognized a gain of $2,067,000 on the disposition of properties in 2012. We sold three properties and conveyed four former Borders properties to the lender pursuant to a consensual deed-in-lieu-of-foreclosure process that satisfied the loans, which had an aggregate principal amount outstanding of approximately $9.2 million as of December 31, 2011.
Income from discontinued operations was $271,000 in 2012 compared to $1,226,000 in 2011, as a result of the sale of two properties, one in May and another in June of 2012, the conveyance of four former Borders properties to the lender in March 2012, one of which was occupied, and the sale of the Ann Arbor office space which was not occupied. In addition, in January 2011, we sold two properties and in December 2011 we sold one property, conveyed the former Borders corporate headquarters to the lender, and terminated the ground lease on a property and conveyed a portion of the property to the ground lessor.
Our net income increased $1,308,000, or 15%, to $9,832,000 in 2012 from $8,524,000 in 2011 as a result of the foregoing factors.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal demands for liquidity are operations, distributions to our stockholders, debt repayment, development of new properties, redevelopment of existing properties and future property acquisitions. We intend to meet our short-term liquidity requirements, including capital expenditures related to the leasing and improvement of our properties, through cash flow provided by operations, our $85 million credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) and additional financings. We believe that adequate cash flow will be available to fund our operations and pay dividends in accordance with REIT requirements for at least the next 12 months. We may obtain additional funds for future developments or acquisitions through other borrowings or the issuance of additional shares of common stock. Although market conditions have limited the availability of new sources of financing and capital, which may have an impact on our ability to obtain financing for planned new development projects, we believe that these financing sources will enable us to generate funds sufficient to meet both our short-term and long-term capital needs.
We completed an underwritten public offering of 1,495,000 shares of common stock at a public offering price of $24.75 per share in January/February of 2012. The offering, which included the full exercise of the overallotment option by the underwriters, raised net proceeds of approximately $35 million after deducting the underwriting discount and other expenses. We used the net proceeds of the offering to pay down amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility and for general corporate purposes.
We sold three non-core properties during 2012 for proceeds of approximately $6,900,000. The three properties included two former Borders locations located in Omaha, Nebraska and Ann Arbor, Michigan and one shopping center in Charlevoix, Michigan. We will continue to evaluate our portfolio to identify opportunities to further diversify our holdings and improve asset quality while executing on our operating strategy.
Our cash flows from operations decreased $2,546,000 to $8,761,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $11,307,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Cash provided (used) by investing activities decreased $24,591,000 to ($22,329,000) in 2012, compared to $2,262,000 in 2011. Cash provided (used) in financing activities increased $25,494,000 to $12,183,000 in 2012, compared to ($13,311,000) in 2011.
We intend to maintain a ratio of total indebtedness (including construction or acquisition financing) to total enterprise value of 45% or less. Nevertheless, we may operate with debt levels which are in excess of 45% of total enterprise value for extended periods of time. At June 30, 2012, our ratio of indebtedness to total enterprise value was approximately 29%.

Dividends
During the quarter ended June 30, 2012, we declared a quarterly dividend of $0.40 per share. We paid the dividend on July 10, 2012 to holders of record on June 29, 2012.
Debt
As of June 30, 2012, we had total mortgage indebtedness of $61,794,286. Of this total mortgage indebtedness, $38,911,508 is fixed rate, with a weighted average interest rate of 6.13%. The remaining mortgage debt of $22,882,778 bears interest at 170 basis points over LIBOR or 1.95% as of June 30, 2012 and has a maturity date of May 14, 2017, which can be extended at our option for two additional years. In January 2009, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement that fixes the interest rate through June 30, 2013 for the variable-interest mortgage at 3.744%. In April 2012, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement that fixes the interest rate for the variable-interest mortgage at 3.62% from July 1, 2013 to May 1, 2019.
In March 2012, we conveyed four former Borders properties located in Columbia, Maryland, Germantown, Maryland, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma and Omaha, Nebraska, which were subject to non-recourse mortgage loans in default, to the lender pursuant to a consensual deed-in-lieu-of-foreclosure process that satisfied the loans with principal balances amounting to approximately $9.2 million.
In June 2012, we entered into an amendment and restatement of the mortgage loan in the amount of $22,882,778 to provide for an extension of the maturity date to May 14, 2017, with an option to extend for two years to May 14, 2019, subject to certain conditions. Borrowings under the loan bear interest at LIBOR plus a spread of 170 basis points.
In addition, the Operating Partnership has in place an $85 million unsecured revolving Credit Facility, which is guaranteed by our Company. Subject to customary conditions, at our option, total commitments under the Credit Facility may be increased up to an aggregate of $135 million. We intend to use borrowings under the Credit Facility for general corporate purposes, including working capital, development and acquisition activities, capital expenditures, repayment of indebtedness or other corporate activities. The Credit Facility matures on October 26, 2014, and may be extended, at our election, for two one-year terms to October 2016, subject to certain conditions. Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at LIBOR plus a spread of 175 to 260 basis points depending on our leverage ratio. As of June 30, 2012, we had $44,434,406 in principal amount outstanding under the Credit Facility bearing a weighted average interest rate of 2.26%, and $40,565,594 was available for borrowing (subject to customary conditions to borrowing).
The Credit Facility contains customary covenants, including, among others, financial covenants regarding debt levels, total liabilities, tangible net worth, fixed charge coverage, unencumbered borrowing base properties and permitted investments. We were in compliance with the covenant terms at June 30, 2012.
Capitalization
As of June 30, 2012, our total enterprise value was approximately $367 million. Enterprise value consisted of $106.2 million of debt (including property related mortgages and the Credit Facility), and $260.8 million of shares of common stock and operating partnership units in the Operating Partnership (“OP units”) (based on the closing price on the NYSE of $22.13 per share on June 29, 2012). Our ratio of debt to total enterprise value was 29% at June 30, 2012.
At June 30, 2012, the non-controlling interest in the Operating Partnership represented a 2.95% ownership in the Operating Partnership. The OP units may, under certain circumstances, be exchanged for our shares of common stock on a one-for-one basis. We, as sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, have the option to settle exchanged OP units held by others for cash based on the current trading price of our shares. Assuming the exchange of all OP units, there would have been 11,436,044 shares of common stock outstanding at June 30, 2012, with a market value of approximately $260.8 million.

Estimated interest payments for mortgages payable are based on stated rates. Estimated interest payments for Notes Payable are based on the interest rate in effect for the most recent quarter, which is assumed to be in effect through the respective maturity date.
We are constructing and plan to begin construction of additional pre-leased developments and may acquire additional properties, which will initially be financed by the Credit Facility. We will periodically refinance short-term construction and acquisition financing with long-term debt and/or equity to the extent available.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not engage in any off-balance sheet arrangements with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as structured finance or special purpose entities.
Inflation
Our leases generally contain provisions designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation on net income. These provisions include clauses enabling us to pass through to tenants certain operating costs, including real estate taxes, common area maintenance, utilities and insurance, thereby reducing our exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation. Certain of our leases contain clauses enabling us to receive percentage rents based on tenants' gross sales, which generally increase as prices rise, and, in certain cases, escalation clauses, which generally increase rental rates during the terms of the leases. In addition, expiring tenant leases permit us to seek increased rents upon re-lease at market rates if rents are below the then existing market rates.
Funds from Operations
Funds from Operations (“FFO”) is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“NAREIT”) to mean net income computed in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. In addition, NAREIT has recently clarified the computation of FFO to exclude impairment charges on depreciable property. Management has restated FFO for prior periods presented accordingly. Management uses FFO as a supplemental measure to conduct and evaluate our business because there are certain limitations associated with using GAAP net income by itself as the primary measure of our operating performance. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, management believes that the presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting is insufficient by itself.
20 |
AGREE REALTY CORPORATION
FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income as the primary indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. Further, while we adhere to the NAREIT definition of FFO, our presentation of FFO is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures of other REITs due to the fact that not all REITs use the same definition.
The following table provides a reconciliation of FFO and net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011:

ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
We are exposed to interest rate risk primarily through borrowing activities. There is inherent roll-over risk for borrowings as they mature and are renewed at current market rates. The extent of this risk is not quantifiable or predictable because of the variability of future interest rates and our future financing requirements.
Our interest rate risk is monitored using a variety of techniques. The table below presents the principal payments (in thousands) and the weighted average interest rates on outstanding debt, by year of expected maturity, to evaluate the expected cash flows and sensitivity to interest rate changes.

The fair value (in thousands) is estimated at $41,253, $21,861 and $44,434 for fixed rate mortgages, variable rate mortgage and other variable rate debt, respectively, as of June 30, 2012.
The table above incorporates those exposures that exist as of June 30, 2012; it does not consider those exposures or positions, which could arise after that date. As a result, our ultimate realized gain or loss with respect to interest rate fluctuations will depend on the exposures that arise during the period and interest rates.
We entered into an interest rate swap agreement in 2009 to hedge interest rates on $24.5 million in variable-rate borrowings outstanding. Under the terms of the interest rate swap agreement, we will receive from the counterparty interest on the notional amount based on 1.5% plus one-month LIBOR and will pay to the counterparty a fixed rate of 3.744%. This swap effectively converted $24.5 million of variable-rate borrowings to fixed-rate borrowings to June 30, 2013. As of June 30, 2012, this interest rate swap was valued at a liability of $576,669. In addition, in April 2012, we entered into a forward starting interest rate swap agreement, for the same variable rate loan, to hedge interest rates on $22.3 million in variable-rate borrowings. Under the terms of the interest rate swap agreement, we will receive from the counterparty interest on the notional amount based on one-month LIBOR and will pay to the counterparty a fixed rate of 1.92%. This swap effectively converted $22.3 million of variable-rate borrowings to fixed-rate borrowings from July 1, 2013 to May 1, 2019. We do not use derivative instruments for trading or other speculative purposes and we did not have any other derivative instruments or hedging activities as of June 30, 2012.
As of June 30, 2012, a 100 basis point increase in interest rates on the portion of our debt bearing interest at variable rates would result in an annual increase in interest expense of approximately $444,000.
ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Text Block] |
The Company estimates the fair value of restricted stock and stock option grants at the date of grant and amortizes those amounts into expense on a straight line basis or amount vested, if greater, over the appropriate vesting period.
As of June 30, 2012, there was $4,887,000 of unrecognized compensation costs related to the outstanding shares of restricted stock, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 3.55 years. The Company used a 0% discount factor and forfeiture rate for determining the fair value of restricted stock. The forfeiture rate was based on historical results and trends.
The holder of a restricted stock award is generally entitled at all times on and after the date of issuance of the restricted stock to exercise the rights of a stockholder of the Company, including the right to vote the shares and the right to receive dividends on the shares.
