1. BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Business

 

Extra Space Storage Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) completed an initial public offering of its common stock on August 17, 2004 concurrently with the consummation of various formation transactions. These formation transactions are described in detail in the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-11 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in connection with the initial public offering. The Company succeeded to the business conducted by Extra Space Storage LLC (the “Predecessor”), a Delaware limited liability company. The financial statements covered in this report represent the results of operations and financial condition of the Predecessor prior to the offering and formation transactions.

 

Basis of presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Predecessor have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the audited annual consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-11 dated August 11, 2004.

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts that are reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying disclosures. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that the Company may undertake in the future, actual results may be different from the estimates.

 

The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for any future period or the full year. The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2003 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-11 dated August 11, 2004 and does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual consolidated financial statements.

3. INVESTMENTS IN REAL ESTATE VENTURES

 

At June 30, 2004, and December 31, 2003, the Predecessor held minority investments in Extra Space West One LLC (“ESW”), which owns self-storage facilities in California, Florida, and Utah and Extra Space Northern Properties Six, LLC (“ESNPS”), which owns properties in California, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey and New York.

 

At December 31, 2003, the Predecessor held a minority investment in Extra Space East One LLC (ESE), which owns self-storage facilities in Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. The Predecessor acquired its joint venture partner’s interest in ESE on May 4, 2004.

 

In addition to the Predecessor’s investments in ESE, ESW and ESNPS, the Predecessor also held 20-50% investments in other entities which own self-storage facilities.

 

In these joint ventures, the Predecessor and the joint venture partner generally receive a preferred return on their invested capital. To the extent that cash/profits in excess of these preferred returns are generated through operations or capital transactions, the Predecessor would receive a higher percentage of the excess cash/profits than its equity interest.

 

To the extent that properties were sold/transferred into these ventures that did not qualify for sales treatment, those properties are reflected as being owned by Predecessor in the consolidated financial statements with the joint venture partners’ interests in these properties reflected as minority interests and putable preferred interests in consolidated joint ventures.

Payables to related parties consist primarily of amounts advanced by members of the Predecessor; in addition, a joint venture partner has made advances to the Predecessor in the form of mortgage loans used to purchase land and self-storage facilities. These related party receivables and payables bear interest at 9-12.5% and are due upon demand.

 

As discussed in Note 6, two members of the Predecessor have guaranteed certain borrowings of the Predecessor. The Predecessor did not pay any fees for these guarantees.

 

During 2002, the Predecessor distributed software with a net book value of $699 to the Class A unit holders. Those members contributed the software to a newly formed company, Centershift.

On January 1, 2004, the Predecessor distributed its equity ownership in Extra Space Development (“ESD”), a consolidated subsidiary, to the Class A members. ESD owned 13 early-stage development properties, two parcels of undeveloped land, and a note receivable. The Predecessor was required to continue consolidating certain of the properties due to financial guarantees. The net book value of the distributed properties was approximately $15,000. The Predecessor retained a receivable of $6,212 from ESD and recorded a net distribution of $9,000. During the six months ended June 30, 2004, the Predecessor advanced ESD an additional $6,280. This receivable will be repaid by ESD using funds obtained through new loans on unencumbered properties.

 

8. PUTABLE PREFERRED INTERESTS IN CONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURES AND OTHER MINORITY INTERESTS

 

At June 30, 2004, the Predecessor owned a 50.5% interest in Extra Space Properties Three, LLC. This arrangement provides for a preferred return of 12% on certain capital provided by both the Predecessor and the joint venture partner, and thereafter returns are split based upon percentage residual interests.

 

The Predecessor has also entered into joint venture agreements with other entities controlled by Equibase Mini Warehouse. These arrangements provide for a preferred return of either 10% or 12%, depending on the specific agreement, on certain capital provided by the joint venture partner and thereafter returns are split based on the indicated percentage interests (generally 40% to the Predecessor and 60% to the investors).

 

In connection with certain of these transactions with Equibase Mini Warehouse and its affiliates, the Predecessor and/or a significant unitholder provided certain financial guarantees to the secured lender (generally providing for performance under the loan including principal and interest payments), or to support a put right on a portion of the joint venture partner’s interest after a fixed period (generally either three or five years), that effectively provide for a return on and of the preferred portion of their investment. In addition, after a fixed period (generally either three or five years) the joint venture has the right to redeem the preferred capital at an amount equal to its unreturned contribution plus any accrued preferred return. Upon exercise of the put or call on the preferred portion of their investment, the joint venture investors would continue to hold their residual equity interests. As a result of the put rights and guarantees, the Predecessor (and, in the future, the Company) will continue to consolidate the properties and related debt until the put rights and guarantees have been satisfied or have expired. At June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, all the joint venture properties were consolidated. The financial guarantees to the secured lender would generally expire upon satisfaction of the related loan at maturity or refinancing. The put rights and related guarantees have no stated maturity and would only expire upon exercise or through redemption of the preferred interests through a capital event.

 

During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, the Predecessor reflected interest expense on the putable preferred interests of $1,670 and $1,182 and $3,313 and $2,241 including amortization of discounts ascribed at issuance for the periods of $365 and $292 and $903 and $541, respectively.

During the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, the Predecessor recognized $0 and $521 of expense, respectively, related to these guarantees.

13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

The Predecessor has guaranteed one mortgage loan held by a joint venture in which the Predecessor has a non-controlling ownership interest. This guarantee was entered into prior to January 1, 2003. At June 30, 2004, the total amount of mortgage debt relating to this joint venture that the Predecessor had guaranteed was $7,837. This mortgage loan matures November 20, 2004. If the joint venture defaulted on the loan, the Predecessor may be forced to repay the loan. The Predecessor could be reimbursed by repossessing and/or selling the self-storage facility and land that collateralizes the loan. The estimated fair market value of the encumbered assets at June 30, 2004 is $15,000. The Predecessor has recorded no liability in relation to this guarantee as of June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003. To date the joint venture has not defaulted on its mortgage debt. The Predecessor and the Company believe the risk of the Predecessor or, in the future the Company, having to perform on the guarantee is remote.

 

The Predecessor has been involved in routine litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. As of June 30, 2004, the Predecessor is not presently involved in any material litigation nor, to its knowledge, is any material litigation threatened against the Predecessor or its properties.

 

14. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

On August 12, 2004, the Predecessor sold its minority equity interest in a storage facility in Laguna Hills, California to its Joint Venture partner for cash of $1,490 and forgiveness of a $2,000 payable for a total of $3,490.

 

On August 17, 2004, in connection with an initial public offering, the existing holders of Class A, Class B, Class C and Class E Units in the Predecessor exchanged these Units for an aggregate of 7,939,950 shares of common stock, 1,608,437 Operating Partnership (“OP”) units, 3,888,843 contingent conversion shares (“CCSs”) and/or 200,046 contingent conversion units (“CCUs”) and $26.8 million in cash. As a result of this exchange, the Predecessor became a wholly owned subsidiary of Extra Space Storage LP (the “Operating Partnership”), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Extra Space Storage Inc. The transaction did not result in a change in the carrying value of the Predecessor’s assets and liabilities, because the contribution of assets from the Predecessor to the Company were accounted for at the Predecessor’s historical cost as a transfer of assets between companies under common control.

 

On August 17, 2004, the Company closed its initial public offering, pursuant to which it sold 20,200,000 shares of common stock, with proceeds to the Company of approximately $234,825, net of issuance costs of $17,675. As part of the offering, the Company granted the underwriters the right to purchase up to 3,030,000 additional shares within thirty days after the offering to cover any over-allotments. On September 1, 2004, the underwriters exercised their right and purchased an additional 3,030,000 shares of stock with proceeds to the Company of approximately $35,224, net of issuance costs of $2,651.

 

On August 23, 2004, the Predecessor completed the acquisition of joint venture interests held by Equibase Mini Warehouse and its affiliates in seven joint ventures, which currently own an aggregate of 30 self-storage properties, for an aggregate of approximately $35.8 million in cash and 114,928 OP Units issued by Extra Space Storage LP, the Company’s Operating Partnership valued at $1,437.

 

On August 23, 2004, the Predecessor completed the acquisition of joint venture interests held by affiliates of the Moss Group in two joint ventures, which currently own an aggregate of two self-storage properties, for approximately $184 in cash and 1,006,684 OP Units valued at $12,584.

ORGANIZATION AND OVERVIEW

 

On August 17, 2004, the Company closed its initial public offering, pursuant to which it sold 20,200,000 shares of common stock, with proceeds to The Company of approximately $234,825, net of issuance costs of $17,675. As part of the offering, The Company granted the underwriters the right to purchase up to 3,030,000 additional shares within thirty days after the offering to cover any over-allotments. On September 1, 2004, the underwriters exercised its right and purchased an additional 3,030,000 shares of stock with proceeds to The Company of approximately $35,224, net of issuance costs of $2,651. The formation transactions outlined in the offering prospectus have been completed as described in various 8-K filings. These filings can be reviewed on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

 

In connection with the initial public offering, the existing holders of Class A, Class B, Class C and Class E Units in the Predecessor exchanged these Units for an aggregate of 7,939,950 shares of common stock, 1,608,437 operating partnership (“OP”) units, 3,888,843 CCS’s and/or 200,046 CCU’s and $26.8 million in cash. As a result of this exchange, Extra Space Storage LLC became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Extra Space Storage Inc. The transaction did not result in a change in the carrying value of the Extra Space Storage’s assets and liabilities because the contribution of assets from the Predecessor to the Company were accounted for at the Predecessor’s historical cost as a transfer of assets between companies under common control.

Table of Contents

As of the completion of the formation transactions, the Company is an integrated, self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust formed to continue the business of Extra Storage LLC to own, operate, acquire, develop and redevelop professionally managed self-storage properties.

 

Results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 include the operations of 114 properties (93 of which were consolidated and 21 of which were in joint ventures historically accounted for using the equity method) compared to the results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, which include the operations of 96 properties (57 of which were consolidated and 39 of which were in joint ventures historically accounted for using the equity method). These results do not include the final formation transactions relating to our initial public offering and these results should be reviewed along with the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-11 dated August 11, 2004.

 

As a result of the formation transactions of the initial public offering, as well as the timing of the offering itself, we do not believe that the results of operations discussion of the Predecessor set forth in this document is necessarily indicative of our future operating results as a publicly-held REIT. The information provided only reflects the operations of the Predecessor for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, and has no relationship to the Company’s operations on a forward basis.

 

We continue to evaluate a range of new growth initiatives and opportunities for the Company to enable us to maximize shareholder value. These include the acquisition and development of self-storage properties and maximizing the performance of our existing self-storage properties through efficient operational management of our properties.

 

We derive substantially all of our revenues from rents received from tenants under existing leases on each of our self-storage properties. We experience minor seasonal fluctuations in occupancy levels, with occupancy levels generally higher in the summer months due to increased moving activity. Our operating results therefore depend materially on our ability to lease available self-storage space and on the ability of our tenants to make required rental payments. We believe we are able to respond more quickly and effectively to changes in local, regional and national economic conditions by adjusting rental rates through use of STORE, the operating management software that we employ at our storage facilities.

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE EXTRA SPACE STORAGE PREDECESOR

 

Comparison of the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2004

 

Overview

 

Results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 include the operations of 114 properties (93 of which were consolidated and 21 of which were in joint ventures historically accounted for using the equity method) compared to the results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, which include the operations of 96 properties (57 of which were consolidated and 39 of which were in joint ventures historically accounted for using the equity method). Results for both periods also included equity in earnings of real estate ventures, third-party management fees, acquisition fees and development fees.

Table of Contents

Total Revenue

 

Revenue increased $4,622, or 49.7%, and $7,218, or 40.9%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. This increase was primarily due to an increase of $4,866 and $7,380, respectively, in property rental revenues.

 

Property rental revenues (including merchandise sales, insurance administrative fees and late fees) increased by $4,866, or 59.7% and $7,380 or 47.2%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2004, the increase in property rental revenues resulted primarily from the acquisition of 19 stabilized properties during the period as well as the continued occupancy gains of our lease-up properties and rental increases from existing customers. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, the increase in property rental revenues resulted primarily from the acquisition of a total of 31 stabilized properties (12 properties acquired during the first three months of the year) as well as the continued occupancy gains of our lease-up properties and rental increases from existing customers.

 

Management fees represent 6.0% of cash collected from the management of properties owned by third parties and unconsolidated joint ventures. Management fees decreased by $122, or 22.2% and $57, or 5.5%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. The decrease in management fees was primarily due to a decrease in third party and joint venture properties managed, due to the acquisition of these properties by the Predecessor.

 

Acquisition fees and development fees decreased by $218, or 61.9% and $205, or 33.9%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. The decrease in acquisition and development fees was primarily due to a decrease in joint venture development activity.

 

Other income represents interest income and income from truck rentals.

 

Total Operating Expenses

 

Total operating expenses increased $4,854, or 64.1%, and $8,075, or 54.1%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. This increase was in large part due to an increase of $2,239 and $3,011, respectively, in property operating expenses, an increase of $1,217 and $2,197, respectively, in general and administrative expenses, and an increase of $1,623 and $2,868 respectively in depreciation and amortization.

 

Property Operating Expenses

 

Property operating expenses increased $2,239, or 61.5%, and $3,011, or 41.4%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2004, the increase in property operating expenses came primarily from the acquisition of 19 stabilized properties during the period. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, the increase in property operating expenses came primarily from the acquisition of a total of 31 stabilized properties (12 properties acquired during the first three months of the year). The increase in property operating expenses also results from increased operating costs such as payroll, utilities, office expenses and repairs and maintenance. In addition, certain properties have experienced reassessments resulting in increased property taxes. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, advertising and marketing expenses showed a slight increase due to increases in yellow page advertising.

General and Other Administrative Expenses

 

General and administrative expenses increased $1,217, or 59.2%, and $2,197, or 54.3%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. This increase is primarily due to an increase in payroll expenses resulting from $1,205 in a non cash charge due to the grant of class A member units and a decrease in development expenses capitalized in 2004 compared to 2003.

 

Unrecovered Development/Acquisition Costs and Support Payments

 

Unrecovered development costs decreased $224, or 54.6%, and $1, or 0.1%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. The decrease in unrecovered development costs was due to the write-off of costs relating to a prospective development project in Inglewood, California during the three months ended June 30, 2004.

 

Depreciation and Amortization

 

Depreciation and amortization increased $1,623, or 110.7%, and $2,868, or 99.0%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2004, the increase came primarily from the acquisition of 19 stabilized properties during the period. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, the increase resulted primarily from the acquisition of a total of 31 stabilized properties (12 properties acquired during the first three months of the year). In addition, four new lease-up properties were completed during the six month period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Interest Expense

 

Interest expense increased $4,062, or 93.5%, and $5,999, or 68.4%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2004, the increase in interest expense resulted primarily from the acquisition of 19 stabilized properties during the period. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, the increase in interest expense resulted primarily from the acquisition of a total of 31 stabilized properties (12 properties acquired during the first three months of the year). In addition, during the three months ended June 30, 2004, $1,772 was paid for the defeasance of two CMBS loans and $675 of unamortized deferred financing costs associated with refinanced borrowings was expensed.

 

Minority Interest-Fidelity Preferred Return

 

Minority interest-Fidelity preferred return increased $91, or 8.8%, and $188, or 9.3%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. The increase was primarily due to additional interest being accrued on the initial investment and unpaid preference amounts.

 

Loss Allocated to Other Minority Interests

 

Loss allocated to other minority interests increased $432, or 337.5%, and $988, or 182.3%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. This increase was due primarily to additional losses being allocated to the minority interests held by Equibase Mini Warehouse joint ventures in 2004.

 

Equity in Earnings of Real Estate Ventures

 

Equity in earnings of real estate ventures decreased $37, or 7.9%, and $180, or 20.7%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. This decrease was due was primarily due to the Predecessor purchasing its joint venture partner’s interest in 18 self storage facilities and these facilities being subsequently consolidated.

Gain (Loss) on the Sale of Real Estate Assets

 

We sold one self-storage property for a gain of $672 in the second quarter of 2003, and sold one self-storage property for a loss of $171 in the first quarter of 2004.

 

SAME-STORE STABILIZED PROPERTY RESULTS FOR EXTRA SPACE STORAGE PREDECESSOR

 

We consider our same-store stabilized portfolio to consist of only those properties owned by us at the beginning and at the end of the applicable periods presented and that had achieved stabilization as of the first day of such period. The following table sets forth operating data for our same-store portfolio for the Predecessor’s same store portfolio periods presented. We consider the following same-store presentation to be meaningful in regards to the 31 properties shown below. These results provide information relating to property-level operating changes without the effects of acquisitions or completed developments. Upon the completion of the formation transactions, we will have a greater population of same-store properties. Consequently, the results shown below should not be used as a basis for future same-store performance.

Comparison of the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2004 to the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2003

 

Same-Store Rental Revenues. Total revenue for the 31 same-store stabilized property portfolio increased $222, or 4.1%, and $378, or 3.5%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. This increase was due to increased rental rates on existing customers, especially in the properties located in the southern California and New Jersey markets. The increase can also be explained by our ability to control discounts for new customers by utilizing the technology of STORE, which allows discounting parameters to be set on a unit-by-unit basis. The lower level of discounting, however, was not seen in all markets due to increased discounting by competitors and the need to match those discounts to gain new rental growth.

 

Same-Store Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses for the Predecessor’s same-store stabilized property portfolio decreased $18, or 0.9%, and $59, or 1.4%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. This decrease was primarily due to additional property taxes being expensed in the three months ended March 31, 2003. Other operating expenses remain relatively flat in comparison to the previous year in most categories.

CASH FLOWS

 

Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2004 to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2003

 

Cash used in operating activities was ($6,929) during the six months ended June 30, 2004 compared to cash provided by operating activities of $4,315 during the six months ended June 30, 2003. The increase in cash used was primarily due to additional lease-up properties being added to the portfolio, and the need to fund the operations of these properties.

 

Cash used in investing activities was ($153,836) and ($34,397) for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. This increase is primarily the result of the acquisitions of real estate.

 

Cash provided by financing activities was $151,794 and $23,721 for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The 2004 financing activities consisted primarily of member contributions of $19,691, additional borrowings of $325,872, including borrowings to fund the purchase of 31 stabilized properties, and the development of existing projects, offset by the repayment of $193,346 of borrowings. The 2003 financing activities consisted primarily of additional borrowings of $59,511 offset by the repayment of $35,356 of borrowings.

 

OUTLOOK

 

From the beginning of 2001 through the end of 2003, regional and national economic conditions, industry dynamics and competitive pressures have prevented many self-storage operators from increasing rental rates at their properties and have led others to offer rental discounts to tenants in order to improve occupancy rates. As a result, it has been difficult for us (as well as many operators in many regions) to improve the operating performance of our properties. We believe that, although the industry continues to face challenges, recent improvements in economic conditions and changes in industry dynamics have enhanced the prospects for operators to grow revenues by increasing rents from existing tenants and by adding new tenants to properties at rising price levels. This was somewhat true for the Predecessor over the first half of 2004, as year-to-year same-store performance indicates modest revenue growth. However, high levels of discounting and aggressive pricing by certain competitors continued into the second quarter of 2004, inhibiting the ability to grow revenue and control discounts in some markets. Despite these competitive challenges, we anticipate continued improvement in the operating climate for self-storage, particularly for well-located, highly-visible, and efficiently managed self-storage properties. We will continue to enhance operational processes and implement technology solutions that will enable us to grow same-store revenues consistently over time.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

As of June 30, 2004, the Predecessor had approximately $2,775 available in cash and cash equivalents. Going forward, the Company will be required to distribute at least 90% of our net taxable income, excluding net capital gains, to its stockholders on an annual basis due to its qualification as a REIT. Therefore, as a general matter, it is unlikely that the Company will have any substantial cash balances that could be used to meet its liquidity needs. Instead, these needs must be met from cash generated from operations and external sources of capital.

Table of Contents

As a result of the formation transactions and the initial public offering, the debt and liquidity of the Company will change significantly. Therefore, the Predecessor’s debt position and liquidity as of June 30, 2004 should be reviewed in conjunction with the formation transactions and liquidity position as discussed in the Registration Statement on Form S-11 dated August 11, 2004.

 

The following is a summary of material changes to our debt since June 30, 2004.

 

  On August 26, 2004, the Company closed a $37.0 million variable rate mortgage with U.S. Bank. This mortgage is secured by five properties and bears interest at a variable rate equal to LIBOR plus 175 basis points and matures in three years after inception with a two year extension available at our option.

 

  On August 27, 2004, the Company entered into a new $111.0 million senior 4.65% fixed rate mortgage with Wachovia N.A. in conjunction with the purchase of 26 self-storage properties. This mortgage requires no principal payments during the term of the loan and is due in 2009.

 

  On September 9, 2004, the Company, as guarantor, and its operating partnership entered into a $100 million secured revolving credit facility, which includes a $10 million swingline subfacility (the “Credit Facility”), with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, Bank of America, N.A., LaSalle Bank National Association, U.S. Bank, National Association and Wachovia Bank, National Association (the “Lenders”). Wells Fargo Bank, National Association will act as the Administrative Agent. The Credit Line is initially collateralized by 16 self-storage properties. The operating partnership intends to use the proceeds of the Credit Facility for general corporate purposes. The line is also limited by debt service coverage tests on each property, calculated based on its prior two quarters of operating income. We have not drawn on this credit line, and based on these covenants, we have approximately $56.0 million of availability under the line of credit.

 

  The Company may enter into an interest rate swap to convert our existing $61.8 million senior fixed rate mortgage due 2009 with Wachovia Bank, N.A., which is collateralized by 11 properties and bears interest at a rate of 4.30% per annum, to a variable rate mortgage, which will bear interest at a variable rate equal to LIBOR plus 60 basis points.

 

We believe that the Company will have sufficient capital resources as a result of operations and the borrowings in place fund ongoing operations.

 

Long-Term Liquidity Needs

 

Our long-term liquidity needs consist primarily of distributions to our stockholders, new facility development, property acquisitions, principal payments under our secured credit facilities and non-recurring capital expenditures. We do not expect the net cash provided by operations will be sufficient to meet all of these long-term liquidity needs.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

 

We have prepared the consolidated financial statements of the Predecessor and will prepare the consolidated financial statements for the Company in accordance with GAAP which require us to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the recorded amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from these estimates. We have summarized below those accounting policies that require our most difficult, subjective or complex judgments and that have the most significant impact on our financial condition and results of operations. Our management evaluates these estimates on an ongoing basis. These estimates are based on information currently available to management and on various other assumptions management believes are reasonable as of the date of this quarterly report.

 

Acquisitions of real estate and intangible assets. When we acquire real estate properties, we allocate the components of the acquisition price using relative fair values determined based on certain estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions impact the allocation of costs between land and different categories of land improvements as well as the amount of costs assigned to individual properties in multiple property acquisitions. These allocations impact the amount of depreciation expense and gains and losses recorded on future sales of self-storage properties, and therefore the net income or loss we report.

 

We determine the fair value of the real estate we acquire, including land, land improvements and buildings, by valuing the real estate at the purchase price less any intangible assets. We then allocate this fair value to land, land improvements and buildings based on our determination of the relative fair values of these assets.

 

We determine the fair value of the intangible assets we acquire in accordance with purchase accounting for acquisitions by considering the value of in-place leases and the value of tenant relationships. We do not place a value on the in-place leases due to the month-to-month terms of the leases. We value tenant relationships as two months’ projected rent (end of month rent roll), based on the stable nature of rentals and vacates in our self-storage properties and the minimal amount of time and effort required to replace an existing tenant.

 

Useful lives of assets and amortization methods. We determine the useful lives of our real estate assets (generally 39 years) based on historical and industry experience with the lives of those particular assets and experience with the timing of significant repairs and replacement of those assets.

 

26


Table of Contents

We have estimated the useful life of tenant relationships to be approximately 18 months based on our experience with the period of time a tenant stays in our facility.

 

Impairment of real estate. We recognize an impairment loss on a real estate asset to be held and used in our operations if the asset’s undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than its depreciated cost whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the real estate asset may not be recoverable. We compute a real estate asset’s undiscounted expected future cash flow using certain estimates and assumptions. We calculate the impairment loss as the difference between the asset’s fair market value and its carrying value.

 

Impairment of intangible assets. We combine our intangible assets, which consist primarily of lease and customer intangibles with a definite life, with the related tangible assets (primarily consisting of real estate assets) at the lowest level for which cash flows are readily identifiable.

 

Whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset group is not recoverable, the asset group is tested for recoverability. If the asset group is not recoverable from the undiscounted cash flows attributable to that asset group, an impairment loss is recognized as the difference between the carrying value of the asset group and the estimated fair value of the asset group.

 

Investments in unconsolidated real estate ventures. We evaluate each of our real estate ventures to determine whether it is a variable interest entity under the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 46R, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of ARB No. 51 (revised December 2003)” which we refer to as FIN 46R. We will consolidate the variable interest entity for which we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary under FIN 46R. We account for our investments in unconsolidated real estate ventures under the equity method of accounting, as we exercise significant influence over, but do not control, these entities under the provisions of the entities’ governing agreements. These investments are recorded initially at cost, as investments in real estate ventures, and subsequently adjusted for equity in earnings and cash contributions and distributions.

 

Derivatives. We manage our exposure to interest rate risk through the use of cash flow hedges and recognize in earnings the ineffective portion of gains or losses associated with cash flow hedges immediately. We obtain values for the interest rate caps from financial institutions that market these instruments.

 

Allowance for doubtful accounts. We have not recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts. Substantially all of our receivables are comprised of rent due from our tenants. Historically, we have not experienced significant losses on our tenant’s receivables. However, collection of future receivables cannot be assured.

 

FINANCING STRATEGY

 

We will continue to employ leverage in our capital structure in amounts determined from time to time by our board of directors. Although our board of directors has not adopted a policy which limits the total amount of indebtedness that we may incur, it will consider a number of factors in evaluating our level of indebtedness from time to time, as well as the amount of such indebtedness that will be either fixed and variable rate, and in making financial decisions, including, among others, the following:

 

  the interest rate of the proposed financing;

 

27


Table of Contents
  the extent to which the financing impacts our flexibility in managing our properties;

 

  prepayment penalties and restrictions on refinancing;

 

  the purchase price of properties we acquire with debt financing;

 

  long-term objectives with respect to the financing;

 

  target investment returns;

 

  the ability of particular properties, and our company as a whole, to generate cash flow sufficient to cover expected debt service payments;

 

  overall level of consolidated indebtedness;

 

  timing of debt and lease maturities;

 

  provisions that require recourse and cross-collateralization;

 

  corporate credit ratios including debt service coverage, debt to total market capitalization and debt to undepreciated assets; and

 

  the overall ratio of fixed- and variable-rate debt.

 

Our indebtedness may be recourse, non-recourse or cross-collateralized. If the indebtedness is non-recourse, the collateral will be limited to the particular properties to which the indebtedness relates. In addition, we may invest in properties subject to existing loans collateralized by mortgages or similar liens on our properties, or may refinance properties acquired on a leveraged basis. We may use the proceeds from any borrowings to refinance existing indebtedness, to refinance investments, including the redevelopment of existing properties, for general working capital or to purchase additional interests in partnerships or joint ventures or for other purposes when we believe it is advisable.

 

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

 

Except as disclosed in the notes to the financial statements of the Predecessor, we do not currently have and have never had any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purposes entities, which typically are established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. Further, except as disclosed, the Predecessor has not guaranteed any obligations of unconsolidated entities nor do we have any commitment or intent to provide funding to any such entities. Accordingly, we are not materially exposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in these relationships.

 

As of June 30, 2004, the Predecessor had, and upon completion of the offering and the formation transactions, the Company had one off-balance sheet arrangement, a guarantee of a loan made to Extra Space Northern Properties Six, LLC, one of the Predecessor’s and the Company’s joint ventures, in connection with two lease-up properties owned by this joint venture located in Concord and San Ramon, California, for $7.8 million that was entered into November 2002 and is due on May 20, 2005. We believe the fair value of this guarantee is negligible. At this time, we do not anticipate a substantial risk of incurring a loss with respect to the above arrangement.

 

SEASONALITY

 

The self-storage business is subject to seasonal fluctuations. A greater portion of our revenues and profits are realized from May through September. Historically, the Predecessor’s highest level of occupancy has been as of the end of July, while its lowest level of occupancy has been in late February and early March. Results for any quarter may not be indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full fiscal year.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

Based on the Company’s review of recent accounting pronouncements released during the quarter ended June 30, 2004, we have not identified any standard requiring adoption that would have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements for the periods presented.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Our future income, cash flows and fair values relevant to financial instruments are dependent upon prevailing market interest rates. Market risk refers to the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and interest rates.

 

As of June 30, 2004, the Predecessor had $431.8 million in total debt of which $234.2 million is subject to variable interest rates. If LIBOR were to increase by 100 basis points, the increase in interest expense on the variable rate debt would decrease future earnings and cash flows by approximately $2.3 million annually.

 

Interest risk amounts were determined by considering the impact of hypothetical interest rates on our financial instruments. These analyses do not consider the effect of any change in overall economic activity that could occur in that environment. Further, in the event of a change of that magnitude, we may take actions to further mitigate our exposure to the change. However, due to the uncertainty of the specific actions that would be taken and their possible effects, these analyses assume no changes in our financial structure.

 

The fair value of the Predecessor’s debt outstanding as of June 30, 2004 was approximately $431.8 million.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, based on the evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) required by paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15, as of June 30, 2004, have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures of the Predecessor and the Company were effective to ensure the timely collection, evaluation and disclosure of information relating to the Predecessor and the Company that would potentially be subject to disclosure under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

 

During the three-month period ended June 30, 2004, there was no change in the Predecessor’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Predecessor’s or Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
