Broadstone Net Lease Announces Second Quarter 2022 Results

Broadstone Net Lease, Inc. (NYSE: BNL) ("BNL," the "Company," "we," "our," or "us"), today announced its operating results for the quarter ended June 30, 2022.

SECOND QUARTER 2022 HIGHLIGHTS

INVESTMENT ACTIVITY

  • Invested $182.4 million in 15 properties at a weighted average initial cash capitalization rate of 6.4%. The leases had a weighted average initial term of 19.9 years and minimum annual rent increases of 2.1%. These acquisitions included properties in the industrial, retail, and healthcare asset classes. Subsequent to quarter end, we closed an additional $80.2 million of acquisitions and currently have $70.9 million in acquisitions under control.
  • Sold three properties, at a weighted average capitalization rate of 5.1%, for net proceeds of $11.4 million, recognizing a gain of $4.1 million over original purchase price.

CAPITAL MARKETS ACTIVITY

  • Sold 3,236,000 shares of common stock for net proceeds of $68.3 million under our at-the-market common equity offering ("ATM Program").
  • Ended the quarter with total outstanding debt of $1.9 billion, Net Debt of $1.8 billion, and a Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre ratio of 5.3x.
  • Declared a quarterly dividend on July 28, 2022, of $0.27 per common share and OP Unit to shareholders and OP unitholders of record as of September 30, 2022.
  • On August 1, 2022, we entered into a $200 million, five year unsecured term loan and a $300 million, seven year unsecured term loan, the proceeds of which were used to repay in full our $190 million term loan set to mature in 2024, and a portion of the outstanding borrowings on our Revolver.

OPERATING RESULTS

  • Collected 100% of base rents due for the second quarter, and our portfolio was 99.8% leased, consistent with the prior quarter.
  • Incurred $9.3 million of general and administrative expenses, inclusive of $1.4 million of stock-based compensation.
  • Generated net income of $35.6 million, or $0.20 per share.
  • Generated adjusted funds from operations ("AFFO") of $62.8 million, or $0.35 per share.
  • Narrowed 2022 AFFO guidance range to between $1.38 and $1.40 per diluted share, driven primarily by proactively accelerating our capital markets activity during the first half of the year, providing a strong balance sheet and significant liquidity position to support our defensive growth strategy.

MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY

"Diversification continues to be the foundation of everything we do as a net lease REIT, and we expect it to be critical through potentially uncertain times ahead of us," said Chris Czarnecki, BNL's Chief Executive Officer. "We took advantage of the flexibility it afforded to us in our pipeline and acquired $182.4 million of properties during the quarter with a strong weighted average initial cash cap rate of 6.4%. Our portfolio continues to perform well, with strong diversification by property type, geographic location, tenant, and industry serving as a natural hedge to current and future economic pressures. With significant liquidity and year-to-date capital markets execution, we remain committed to our defensive growth strategy to provide strong returns to investors."

REAL ESTATE PORTFOLIO UPDATE

As of June 30, 2022, we owned a diversified portfolio of 764 individual net leased commercial properties with 757 properties located in 44 U.S. states and seven properties located in four Canadian provinces, comprising approximately 34.4 million rentable square feet of operational space. As of June 30, 2022, all but two of our properties were subject to a lease, and our properties were occupied by 213 different commercial tenants, with no single tenant accounting for more than 2.0% of ABR. Properties subject to a lease represent 99.8% of our portfolio's rentable square footage. The ABR weighted average annual minimum rent increase, pursuant to leases on properties in the portfolio as of June 30, 2022, was 2.0%.

During the second quarter, we invested $182.4 million, excluding capitalized acquisition costs, in 15 properties at a weighted average initial cash cap rate of 6.4%. The acquisitions included properties in industrial (82.1% of the quarter's volume, based on ABR), retail (10.7%), and healthcare (7.2%) asset classes. The second quarter acquisitions were located across 14 U.S. states with a weighted average initial lease term and minimum annual rent increases of 19.9 years and 2.1%, respectively.

BNL continues to build and evaluate a robust pipeline of potential investment opportunities predominantly focused on industrial, healthcare, restaurant, and retail asset classes. Subsequent to quarter end, we invested an additional $80.2 million, excluding capitalized acquisition costs, in 14 properties in the industrial and retail asset classes. BNL currently has $70.9 million of properties under control, which we define as under contract or executed letter of intent.

During the second quarter, we sold three properties for net proceeds of $11.4 million, recognizing a gain over original purchase price of $4.1 million. The weighted average capitalization rate realized on the tenanted properties was 5.1%.

BALANCE SHEET AND CAPITAL MARKETS ACTIVITIES

During the second quarter, BNL sold 3,236,000 shares of common stock under its ATM Program at a weighted average sale price of $21.42 per share for net proceeds of $68.3 million. There was approximately $166.0 million of capacity remaining on the ATM Program as of June 30, 2022.

Subsequent to quarter end, on August 1, 2022, we entered into two new unsecured bank term loans, including a $200 million, five year term loan that matures in 2027 (the "2027 Unsecured Term Loan"), and a $300 million, seven year term loan that matures in 2029 (the "2029 Unsecured Term Loan"). Borrowings on the new term loans bear interest at variable rates based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus a margin based on our credit rating ranging between 0.80% and 1.60% per annum for the 2027 Unsecured Term Loan, and 1.15% and 2.20% per annum for the 2029 Unsecured Term Loan. The initial applicable margin was 0.95% and 1.25% for the 2027 Unsecured Term Loan and 2029 Unsecured Term Loan, respectively. Proceeds from the loans were used to repay in full our $190 million unsecured term loan set to mature in 2024, including accrued interest, and a portion of the outstanding balance on our Revolver.

DISTRIBUTIONS

At its July 28, 2022, meeting, our board of directors declared a $0.27 distribution per common share and OP Unit to stockholders and OP unitholders of record as of September 30, 2022, payable on or before October 14, 2022.

2022 GUIDANCE

BNL has narrowed its guidance range for the 2022 full year and currently expects to report AFFO of between $1.38 and $1.40 per diluted share, driven primarily by the incremental interest expense associated with our new unsecured term loans, as well as accelerated equity raise during the first half of the year.

The updated guidance range is based on the following key assumptions:

  1. investments in real estate properties between $700 million and $800 million, which is unchanged;
  2. dispositions of real estate properties between $75 million and $100 million, which is unchanged; and
  3. total cash general and administrative expenses between $31 million and $33 million, which is unchanged.

AFFO per share is sensitive to the timing and amount of real estate acquisitions, property dispositions, and capital markets activities during the year.

The Company does not provide guidance for the most comparable GAAP financial measure, net income, or a reconciliation of the forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure of AFFO to net income computed in accordance with GAAP, because it is unable to reasonably predict, without unreasonable efforts, certain items that would be contained in the GAAP measure, including items that are not indicative of the Company's ongoing operations, including, without limitation, potential impairments of real estate assets, net gain/loss on dispositions of real estate assets, changes in allowance for credit losses, and stock-based compensation expense. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on the Company's GAAP results for the guidance periods.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains "forward-looking" statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, regarding, among other things, our plans, strategies, and prospects, both business and financial. Such forward-looking statements can generally be identified by our use of forward-looking terminology such as "may," "will," "should," "expect," "intend," "anticipate," "estimate," "would be," "believe," "continue," or other similar words. Forward-looking statements, including our 2022 guidance and assumptions, involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which may cause BNL's actual future results to differ materially from expected results, including, without limitation, risks and uncertainties related to the COVID-19 pandemic and its related impacts on us and our tenants, general economic conditions, including but not limited to increases in the rate of inflation and/or interest rates, local real estate conditions, tenant financial health, property acquisitions, and the timing and uncertainty of completing these acquisitions, and uncertainties regarding future distributions to our stockholders. These and other risks, assumptions, and uncertainties are described in Item 1A "Risk Factors" of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on February 23, 2022, which you are encouraged to read, and is available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those indicated or anticipated by such forward-looking statements. Accordingly, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. The Company assumes no obligation to, and does not currently intend to, update any forward-looking statements after the date of this press release, whether as a result of new information, future events, changes in assumptions, or otherwise.

Notice Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to our reported results and net earnings per diluted share, which are financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP, this press release contains and may refer to certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Funds from Operations ("FFO"), Core Funds From Operations ("Core FFO"), Adjusted Funds from Operations ("AFFO"), Net Debt, and Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre. We believe the use of FFO, Core FFO, and AFFO are useful to investors because they are widely accepted industry measures used by analysts and investors to compare the operating performance of REITs. FFO, Core FFO, and AFFO should not be considered alternatives to net income as a performance measure or to cash flows from operations, as reported on our statement of cash flows, or as a liquidity measure, and should be considered in addition to, and not in lieu of, GAAP financial measures. We believe presenting Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre is useful to investors because it provides information about gross debt less cash and cash equivalents, which could be used to repay debt, compared to our performance as measured using Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre. You should not consider our Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre as an alternative to net income or cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure and statements of why management believes these measures are useful to investors are included below.

Excludes 377,407, and 370,539 weighted average shares of unvested restricted common stock for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022, respectively. Excludes 373,992, and 360,593 weighted average shares of unvested restricted common stock for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

3

Excludes $0.1 million from the numerator for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022, respectively, and $0.2 million from the numerator for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, related to dividends paid or declared on shares of unvested restricted common stock.

 

Our reported results and net earnings per diluted share are presented in accordance with GAAP. We also disclose FFO, Core FFO, and AFFO, each of which are non-GAAP measures. We believe the use of FFO, Core FFO, and AFFO are useful to investors because they are widely accepted industry measures used by analysts and investors to compare the operating performance of REITs. FFO, Core FFO, and AFFO should not be considered alternatives to net income as a performance measure or to cash flows from operations, as reported on our statement of cash flows, or as a liquidity measure and should be considered in addition to, and not in lieu of, GAAP financial measures.

We compute FFO in accordance with the standards established by the Board of Governors of Nareit, the worldwide representative voice for REITs and publicly traded real estate companies with an interest in the U.S. real estate and capital markets. Nareit defines FFO as GAAP net income or loss adjusted to exclude net gains (losses) from sales of certain depreciated real estate assets, depreciation and amortization expense from real estate assets, gains and losses from change in control, and impairment charges related to certain previously depreciated real estate assets. FFO is used by management, investors, and analysts to facilitate meaningful comparisons of operating performance between periods and among our peers, primarily because it excludes the effect of real estate depreciation and amortization and net gains (losses) on sales, which are based on historical costs and implicitly assume that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time, rather than fluctuating based on existing market conditions.

We compute Core FFO by adjusting FFO, as defined by Nareit, to exclude certain GAAP income and expense amounts that we believe are infrequently recurring, unusual in nature, or not related to its core real estate operations, including write-offs or recoveries of accrued rental income, lease termination fees, the change in fair value of our earnout liability, cost of debt extinguishments, unrealized and realized gains or losses on foreign currency transactions, severance, and other extraordinary items. Exclusion of these items from similar FFO-type metrics is common within the equity REIT industry, and management believes that presentation of Core FFO provides investors with a metric to assist in their evaluation of our operating performance across multiple periods and in comparison to the operating performance of our peers, because it removes the effect of unusual items that are not expected to impact our operating performance on an ongoing basis.

We compute AFFO by adjusting Core FFO for certain non-cash revenues and expenses, including straight-line rents, amortization of lease intangibles, amortization of debt issuance costs, amortization of net mortgage premiums, (gain) loss on interest rate swaps and other non-cash interest expense, stock-based compensation, and other specified non-cash items. We believe that excluding such items assists management and investors in distinguishing whether changes in our operations are due to growth or decline of operations at our properties or from other factors. We use AFFO as a measure of our performance when we formulate corporate goals, and is a factor in determining management compensation. We believe that AFFO is a useful supplemental measure for investors to consider because it will help them to better assess our operating performance without the distortions created by non-cash revenues or expenses.

Specific to our adjustment for straight-line rents, our leases include cash rents that increase over the term of the lease to compensate us for anticipated increases in market rental rates over time. Our leases do not include significant front-loading or back-loading of payments, or significant rent-free periods. Therefore, we find it useful to evaluate rent on a contractual basis as it allows for comparison of existing rental rates to market rental rates. In situations where we granted short-term rent deferrals as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and such deferrals were probable of collection and expected to be repaid within a short term, we continued to recognize the same amount of GAAP lease revenues each period. Consistent with GAAP lease revenues, the short-term deferrals associated with COVID-19, and the corresponding payments, did not impact our AFFO.

FFO, Core FFO, and AFFO may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other REITs, and comparisons of our FFO, Core FFO, and AFFO with the same or similar measures disclosed by other REITs may not be meaningful.

Neither the SEC nor any other regulatory body has passed judgment on the acceptability of the adjustments to FFO that we use to calculate Core FFO and AFFO. In the future, the SEC, Nareit or another regulatory body may decide to standardize the allowable adjustments across the REIT industry and in response to such standardization we may have to adjust our calculation and characterization of Core FFO and AFFO accordingly.

We define Net Debt as gross debt (total reported debt plus debt issuance costs) less cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. We believe that the presentation of Net Debt to Annualized EBITDAre and Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre is useful to investors and analysts because these ratios provide information about gross debt less cash and cash equivalents, which could be used to repay debt, compared to our performance as measured using EBITDAre.

We compute EBITDA as earnings before interest, income taxes and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is a measure commonly used in our industry. We believe that this ratio provides investors and analysts with a measure of our performance that includes our operating results unaffected by the differences in capital structures, capital investment cycles and useful life of related assets compared to other companies in our industry. We compute EBITDAre in accordance with the definition adopted by Nareit, as EBITDA excluding gains (losses) from the sales of depreciable property and provisions for impairment on investment in real estate. We believe EBITDA and EBITDAre are useful to investors and analysts because they provide important supplemental information about our operating performance exclusive of certain non-cash and other costs. EBITDA and EBITDAre are not measures of financial performance under GAAP, and our EBITDA and EBITDAre may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. You should not consider our EBITDA and EBITDAre as alternatives to net income or cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP.

We are focused on a disciplined and targeted acquisition strategy, together with active asset management that includes selective sales of properties. We manage our leverage profile using a ratio of Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre, discussed further below, which we believe is a useful measure of our ability to repay debt and a relative measure of leverage, and is used in communications with our lenders and rating agencies regarding our credit rating. As we fund new acquisitions using our unsecured Revolving Credit Facility, our leverage profile and Net Debt will be immediately impacted by current quarter acquisitions. However, the full benefit of EBITDAre from newly acquired properties will not be received in the same quarter in which the properties are acquired. Additionally, EBITDAre for the quarter includes amounts generated by properties that have been sold during the quarter. Accordingly, the variability in EBITDAre caused by the timing of our acquisitions and dispositions can temporarily distort our leverage ratios. We adjust EBITDAre ("Adjusted EBITDAre") for the most recently completed quarter (i) to recalculate as if all acquisitions and dispositions had occurred at the beginning of the quarter, (ii) to exclude certain GAAP income and expense amounts that are either non-cash, such as cost of debt extinguishments, or the change in fair value of our earnout liability, or that we believe are one time, or unusual in nature because they relate to unique circumstances or transactions that had not previously occurred and which we do not anticipate occurring in the future, and (iii) to eliminate the impact of lease termination fees and other items, that are not a result of normal operations. We then annualize quarterly Adjusted EBITDAre by multiplying it by four ("Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre"). You should not unduly rely on this measure as it is based on assumptions and estimates that may prove to be inaccurate. Our actual reported EBITDAre for future periods may be significantly different from our Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre. Adjusted EBITDAre and Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre are not measurements of performance under GAAP, and our Adjusted EBITDAre and Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. You should not consider our Adjusted EBITDAre and Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre as alternatives to net income or cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP.
