SAN DIEGO, CA / ACCESSWIRE / November 11, 2021 / Presidio Property Trust, Inc. (NASDAQ:SQFT)(NASDAQ:SQFTP) (the "Company"), an internally managed, diversified real estate investment trust ("REIT"), today reported earnings for its third quarter ended September 30, 2021. All third quarter financial measures referenced herein are unaudited.
"We are pleased to report our third quarter earnings, continuing the strong rent collections that we saw throughout 2020 and 2021," said Jack Heilbron, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer. "In the third quarter, we made our company's first commercial acquisition in Texas. We collected 96% of billings in this period, as our diverse portfolio continues to perform well."
"11 office, retail, and industrial leases were signed in the third quarter of 2021, with 2 new tenants and 9 existing tenant renewals," noted Gary Katz, the Company's Senior Vice President of Asset Management. "We continue to see solid leasing demand in the markets where our properties are located."
Third Quarter Ended September 30, 2021 Financial Results
Net loss attributable to the Company's common stockholders for the three months ended September 30, 2021 was approximately ($1.4 million), or ($0.13) per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of ($1.7 million), or ($0.20) per basic and diluted share for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The change in net loss attributable to the Company's common stockholders was a result of:
- A decrease in interest expense of approximately $1.1 million in connections with the reduction of mortgage notes and other notes payable during 2021;
- A decrease in revenues of approximately $1.3 million due to the sale of four properties since the beginning of 2021;
- A corresponding decrease in rental operating costs of approximately $0.7 million and a decrease of approximately $0.3 million in depreciation and amortization due to the sale of four properties since the beginning of 2021;
- Offset by the addition of dividends for Series D Preferred Stock totaling approximately $0.5 million, not present during the three months ended September 30, 2020.
Core FFO (non-GAAP) for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, increased by approximately $122,722 to $1.67 million from $1.55 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020. A reconciliation of Core FFO to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, is attached to this press release. However, because Core FFO excludes depreciation and amortization as well as the changes in the value of the Company's properties that result from use or market conditions, each of which have real economic effects and could materially impact the Company's results from operations, the utility of Core FFO as a measure of the Company's performance is limited.
Acquisitions and Dispositions for the first three quarters of 2021
- Waterman Plaza, which was sold on January 28, 2021 for approximately $3.5 million and the Company recognized a loss of approximately $0.2 million.
- Garden Gateway, which was sold on February 19, 2021 for approximately $11.2 million and the Company recognized a loss of approximately $1.4 million.
- Highland Court, which was sold on May 20, 2021 for approximately $10.23 million and the Company recognized a loss of approximately $1.6 million.
- Executive Office Park, which was sold on May 21, 2021, 2021 for approximately $8.1 million and the Company recognized a gain of approximately $2.5 million.
On August 17, 2021, the Company, through its 61.3% owned subsidiaries NetREIT Palm Self Storage, LP and NetREIT Highland LLC, acquired a single story newly constructed 10,500 square foot building in Houston, Texas for a purchase price of approximately $4.9 million, in connection with a like-kind exchange transaction pursued under Section 1031 of the Code 1986, as amended (the "Internal Revenue Code"). The building is 100% occupied under a 15-year triple net lease.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company acquired six model homes for approximately $2.9 million. The purchase price was paid through cash payments of approximately $0.9 million and mortgage notes of approximately $2.0 million.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company disposed of 39 model homes for approximately $19.0 million and recognized a gain of approximately $2.9 million.
Dividends
On August 25, 2021, the board of directors of the Company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.103 per share of Series A Common Stock for the second quarter of 2021, payable on September 21, 2021 to stockholders of record as of September 7, 2021.
In accordance with the terms of the Series D Preferred Stock, the Series D monthly dividend has been approved by the Board of Directors through December 2021 in the amount of $0.10417 per share payable on the 15th of every month to stockholders of record of Series D Preferred Stock as of the last day of the prior month. Total dividends paid to Series D Preferred stockholders during the three months ended September 30, 2021 was $455,207.

About Presidio Property Trust
Presidio is an internally managed, diversified REIT with holdings in office, industrial, and retail properties, and model home properties which are triple-net leased to homebuilders. Presidio's model homes are leased to homebuilders located primarily in Texas and Florida and its office, industrial and retail properties are located primarily in Colorado, with properties also located in North Dakota and in Southern California. While geographical clustering of real estate enables Presidio to reduce its operating costs through economies of scale by servicing a number of properties with less staff, it makes Presidio susceptible to changing market conditions in these discrete geographic areas, including those that have developed as a result of COVID-19.

Definitions
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Funds from Operations ("FFO") - The Company evaluates performance based on Funds From Operations, which we refer to as FFO, as management believes that FFO represents the most accurate measure of activity and is the basis for distributions paid to equity holders. The Company defines FFO as net income or loss (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, hedge ineffectiveness, acquisition costs of newly acquired properties that are not capitalized and lease acquisition costs that are not capitalized plus depreciation and amortization, including amortization of acquired above and below market lease intangibles and impairment charges on properties or investments in non-consolidated REITs, and after adjustments to exclude equity in income or losses from, and, to include the proportionate share of FFO from, non-consolidated REITs.
However, because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization as well as the changes in the value of the Company's properties that result from use or market conditions, each of which have real economic effects and could materially impact the Company's results from operations, the utility of FFO as a measure of the Company's performance is limited. In addition, other REITs may not calculate FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition as the Company does, and, accordingly, the Company's FFO may not be comparable to other REITs' FFO. Accordingly, FFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income as a measure of the Company's performance.
Core Funds from Operations ("Core FFO") - We calculate Core FFO by using FFO as defined by NAREIT and adjusting for certain other non-core items. We also exclude from our Core FFO calculation acquisition costs, loss on early extinguishment of debt, changes in the fair value of the earn-out, changes in fair value of contingent consideration and the amortization of stock-based compensation.
We believe Core FFO provides a useful metric in comparing operations between reporting periods and in assessing the sustainability of our ongoing operating performance. Other equity REITs may calculate Core FFO differently or not at all, and, accordingly, the Company's Core FFO may not be comparable to such other REITs' Core FFO.
Same Store Net Operating Income ("Same Store NOI") - Same Store NOI is calculated as the net operating income attributable to the properties continuously owned and operated for the entirety of the reporting periods presented. The Company's definition of Same Store NOI excludes properties that were not stabilized during both of the applicable reporting periods. These exclusions may include, but are not limited to, acquisitions, dispositions and properties undergoing repositioning or significant renovations.
We believe Same Store NOI is an important measure of comparison because it allows for comparison of operating results of stabilized properties owned and operated for the entirety of both applicable periods and therefore eliminates variations caused by acquisitions, dispositions or repositioning during such periods. Other REITs may calculate Same Store NOI differently and our calculation should not be compared to that of other REITs.
