STATEMENT ON FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

Certain information presented in this report contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning our plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events, future revenues or performance, capital expenditures, financing needs, plans or intentions relating to acquisitions and other information that is not historical information. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as “believes,” “expects,” “estimates,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “anticipates,” or “intends”, or the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy. We may also make additional forward-looking statements from time to time. All such subsequent forward-looking statements, whether written or oral, by us or on our behalf, are also expressly qualified by these cautionary statements.

All forward-looking statements, including without limitation, management’s examination of historical operating trends and estimate of future earnings, are based upon our current expectations and various assumptions. Our expectations, beliefs and projections are expressed in good faith and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them, but there can be no assurance that management’s expectations, beliefs and projections will result or be achieved. All forward-looking statements apply only as of the date made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise forward-looking statements which may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in or contemplated by this report. Any forward-looking statements should be considered in light of the risks referenced in “Part II. Item 1A. Risk Factors” below and in “Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors” included in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. Such factors include, but are not limited to:

· adverse changes in general economic conditions, the real estate industry and the markets in which we operate;

· failure to close pending acquisitions on expected terms, or at all;

· the effect of competition from new and existing self-storage facilities or other storage alternatives, which could cause rents and occupancy rates to decline;

· difficulties in our ability to evaluate, finance, complete and integrate acquisitions and developments successfully and to lease up those properties, which could adversely affect our profitability;

· potential liability for uninsured losses and environmental contamination;

· the impact of the regulatory environment as well as national, state and local laws and regulations including, without limitation, those governing real estate investment trusts (“REITs”), tenant reinsurance and other aspects of our business, which could adversely affect our results;

· disruptions in credit and financial markets and resulting difficulties in raising capital or obtaining credit at reasonable rates or at all, which could impede our ability to grow;

· increased interest rates and operating costs;

· reductions in asset valuations and related impairment charges;

· the failure of our joint venture partners to fulfill their obligations to us or their pursuit of actions that are inconsistent with our objectives;

· the failure to maintain our REIT status for federal income tax purposes;

· economic uncertainty due to the impact of war or terrorism, which could adversely affect our business plan; and

· difficulties in our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel and management members.

EXTRA SPACE STORAGE INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

Amounts in thousands, except property and share data

1. ORGANIZATION

Extra Space Storage Inc. (the “Company”) is a fully-integrated, self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”), formed as a Maryland corporation on April 30, 2004, to own, operate, manage, acquire, develop and redevelop professionally managed self-storage facilities located throughout the United States. The Company continues the business of Extra Space Storage LLC and its subsidiaries, which had engaged in the self-storage business since 1977. The Company’s interest in its properties is held through its operating partnership, Extra Space Storage LP (the “Operating Partnership”), which was formed on May 5, 2004. The Company’s primary assets are general partner and limited partner interests in the Operating Partnership. This structure is commonly referred to as an umbrella partnership REIT, or UPREIT. The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  To the extent the Company continues to qualify as a REIT, it will not be subject to tax, with certain limited exceptions, on the taxable income that is distributed to its stockholders.

The Company invests in self-storage facilities by acquiring wholly-owned facilities or by acquiring an equity interest in real estate entities.  At September 30, 2013, the Company had direct and indirect equity interests in 754 operating storage facilities.  In addition, the Company managed 253 properties for third parties, bringing the total number of operating properties which it owns and/or manages to 1,007.  These properties are located in 35 states, Washington, D.C. and Puerto Rico.

The Company operates in three distinct segments: (1) rental operations; (2) tenant reinsurance; and (3) property management, acquisition and development. The rental operations activities include rental operations of self-storage facilities in which we have an ownership interest. No single tenant accounts for more than 5% of rental income.  Tenant reinsurance activities include the reinsurance of risks relating to the loss of goods stored by tenants in the Company’s self-storage facilities. The Company’s property management, acquisition and development activities include managing, acquiring, developing and selling self-storage facilities.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they may not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2012 has been derived from the Company’s audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. For further information refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Certain amounts in the 2012 financial statements and supporting note disclosures have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.  Such reclassifications did not impact previously reported net income or accumulated deficit.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-02 “Comprehensive Income — Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income,” which supersedes and replaces the presentation requirements for reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income in ASUs 2011-05 and 2011-12. The amendment requires an entity to report the effect of significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the respective line items in net income if the amount being reclassified is required under GAAP. For other amounts that are not required under GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income in the same reporting period, an entity is required to cross-reference other disclosures required under GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts. ASU 2013-02 was effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after December 15, 2012. The Company adopted the amended standards beginning January 1, 2013 and presents accumulated other comprehensive income in accordance with the requirements of the standard.

3. FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

Derivative Financial Instruments

Currently, the Company uses interest rate swaps to manage its interest rate risk. The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves. The fair values of interest rate swaps are determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash payments and the discounted expected variable cash receipts. The variable cash receipts are based on an expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate forward curves.

The Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of its derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, the Company has considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts, and guarantees. In conjunction with the FASB’s fair value measurement guidance, the Company made an accounting policy election to measure the credit risk of its derivative financial instruments that are subject to master netting agreements on a net basis by counterparty portfolio.

Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. However, as of September 30, 2013, the Company had assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and determined that the credit valuation adjustments were not significant to the overall valuation of its derivatives. As a result, the Company determined that its derivative valuations in their entirety were classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The table below presents the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2013, aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall.

There were no transfers of assets and liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2 during the nine months ended September 30, 2013.  The Company did not have any significant assets or liabilities that are re-measured on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

Long-lived assets held for use are evaluated for impairment when events or circumstances indicate there may be impairment.  The Company reviews each self-storage facility at least annually to determine if any such events or circumstances have occurred or exist. The Company focuses on facilities where occupancy and/or rental income have decreased by a significant amount.  For these facilities, the Company determines whether the decrease is temporary or permanent, and whether the facility will likely recover the lost occupancy and/or revenue in the short term.  In addition, the Company carefully reviews facilities in the lease-up stage and compares actual operating results to original projections.

When the Company determines that an event that may indicate impairment has occurred, the Company compares the carrying value of the related long-lived assets to the undiscounted future net operating cash flows attributable to the assets.  An impairment loss is recorded if the net carrying value of the assets exceeds the undiscounted future net operating cash flows attributable to the assets.  The impairment loss recognized equals the excess of net carrying value over the related fair value of the assets.

Table of Contents

When real estate assets are identified by management as held for sale, the Company discontinues depreciating the assets and estimates the fair value of the assets, net of selling costs.  If the estimated fair value, net of selling costs, of the assets that have been identified as held for sale is less than the net carrying value of the assets, then a valuation allowance is established.  The operations of assets held for sale or sold during the period are generally presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

The Company assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of its investments in unconsolidated real estate ventures may be impaired annually and when events or circumstances indicate there may be impairment.  An investment is impaired if management’s estimate of the fair value of the investment is less than its carrying value.  To the extent impairment has occurred, and is considered to be other than temporary, the loss is measured as the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the investment.

In connection with the Company’s acquisition of self-storage facilities, the purchase price is allocated to the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities acquired based on their fair values, which are estimated using significant unobservable inputs. The value of the tangible assets, consisting of land and buildings, is determined as if vacant. Intangible assets, which represent the value of existing tenant relationships, are recorded at their fair values based on the avoided cost to replace the current leases. The Company measures the value of tenant relationships based on the rent lost due to the amount of time required to replace existing customers, which is based on the Company’s historical experience with turnover in its facilities. Debt assumed as part of an acquisition is recorded at fair value based on current interest rates compared to contractual rates. Acquisition-related transaction costs are expensed as incurred.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, receivables, other financial instruments included in other assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses, variable-rate notes payable, lines of credit and other liabilities reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 approximate fair value.

The fair value of the Company’s note receivable from Preferred Operating Partnership unit holder was based on the discounted estimated future cash flows of the note (categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy); the discount rate used approximated the current market rate for loans with similar maturities and credit quality.  The fair values of the Company’s fixed-rate notes payable and notes payable to trusts were estimated using the discounted estimated future cash payments to be made on such debt (categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy); the discount rates used approximated current market rates for loans, or groups of loans, with similar maturities and credit quality.  The fair value of the Company’s exchangeable senior notes was estimated using an average market price obtained from a third party.

The fair values of the Company’s fixed-rate assets and liabilities were as follows for the periods indicated:

4. NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average common shares outstanding, including unvested share-based payment awards that contain a non-forfeitable right to dividends or dividend equivalents.  Diluted earnings per common share measures the performance of the Company over the reporting period while giving effect to all potential common shares that were dilutive and outstanding during the period. The denominator includes the weighted average number of basic shares and the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares that were dilutive had been issued, and is calculated using either the treasury stock or as if-converted method. Potential common shares are securities (such as options, convertible debt, exchangeable Series A Participating Redeemable Preferred Units (“Series A Units”) and Series B Redeemable Preferred Units (“Series B Units”) (together, “Preferred OP Units”) and exchangeable Operating Partnership units (“OP Units”)) that do not have a current right to participate in earnings but could do so in the future by virtue of their option or conversion right. In computing the dilutive effect of convertible securities, net income is adjusted to add back any changes in earnings in the period associated with the

12



Table of Contents

convertible security. The numerator also is adjusted for the effects of any other non-discretionary changes in income or loss that would result from the assumed conversion of those potential common shares. In computing diluted earnings per share, only potential common shares that are dilutive (those that reduce earnings per share) are included.

The Operating Partnership had $250,000 of its 2.375% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2033 (the “Notes”) issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2013.  The Notes could potentially have a dilutive effect on the Company’s earnings per share calculations.  The Notes are exchangeable by holders into shares of the Company’s common stock under certain circumstances per the terms of the indenture governing the Notes.  The exchange price of the Notes was $55.69 per share as of September 30, 2013, and could change over time as described in the indenture.  The Company has irrevocably agreed to pay only cash for the accreted principal amount of the Notes relative to its exchange obligations, but retained the right to satisfy the exchange obligation in excess of the accreted principal amount in cash and/or common stock.  Though the Company has retained that right, Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 260, “Earnings per Share,” requires an assumption that shares would be used to pay the exchange obligation in excess of the accreted principal amount, and requires that those shares be included in the Company’s calculation of weighted average common shares outstanding for the diluted earnings per share computation.  For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 no shares related to the Notes were included in the computation for diluted earnings per share as the per share price of the Company’s common stock during this period did not exceed the exchange price.

For the purposes of computing the diluted impact on earnings per share of the potential conversion of Series A Units into common shares, where the Company has the option to redeem in cash or shares and where the Company has stated the positive intent and ability to settle at least $115,000 of the instrument in cash (or net settle a portion of the Series A Units against the related outstanding note receivable), only the amount of the instrument in excess of $115,000 is considered in the calculation of shares contingently issuable for the purposes of computing diluted earnings per share as allowed by ASC 260-10-45-46.

For the purposes of computing the diluted impact on earnings per share of the potential conversion of Series B Units into common shares, where the Company has the option to redeem in cash or shares and where the Company has stated the intent and ability to settle the redemption in shares, the Company divided the total value of the Series B Units outstanding at September 30, 2013, or $33,568, by the closing price of $45.75 per share at September 30, 2013.  Assuming full conversion to common shares as of September 30, 2013, 733,731 shares would have been issued to holders of the Series B units.

For the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, options to purchase 51,036 and 15,223 shares of common stock, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, options to purchase 43,273 and 54,959 shares of common stock, respectively, were excluded from the computation of earnings per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.  All restricted stock grants have been included in basic and diluted shares outstanding because such shares earn a non-forfeitable dividend and carry voting rights.

The computation of net income per common share was as follows for the periods indicated:

(1) Loans assumed and immediately defeased at closing are excluded from loans assumed and included in cash paid.

(2) Acquired from an affiliated joint venture

On August 29, 2013, the Operating Partnership completed the purchase of 19 out of 20 self-storage facilities affiliated with All Aboard Mini Storage, all of which are located in California.  On September 26, 2013, the Operating Partnership completed the purchase of the remaining facility.  These properties were acquired in exchange for $100,876 in cash (including $98,960 of debt assumed and immediately defeased at closing), 1,342,727 Series B Units valued at $33,568 and 1,448,108 common OP Units valued at $62,341.  In accordance with ASC 805, “Business Combinations,” the assumed debt was recorded at its fair value as of the closing date.  The difference between the price paid to extinguish the debt, which included $9,153 of defeasance costs, and the carrying value of the debt was recorded as loss on extinguishment of debt related to portfolio acquisition on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

In June 2013, the Company recorded a gain of $800 due to the condemnation of a portion of land at one self-storage property in California that resulted from eminent domain.

On May 16, 2013, the Company sold a property located in New York for $950.  No gain or loss was recorded as a result of the sale.

6. VARIABLE INTERESTS

The Company has an interest in one unconsolidated joint venture with an unrelated third party which is a variable interest entity (“VIE”). The Company holds an 18% equity interest and a 50% profit interest in the VIE joint venture (“VIE JV”), and has 50% of the voting rights in the VIE JV. Qualification as a VIE was based on the determination that the equity investment at risk for this joint venture was not sufficient based on a qualitative and quantitative analysis performed by the Company. The Company performed a qualitative analysis for this joint venture to determine which party was the primary beneficiary. The Company determined that, since the powers to direct the activities most significant to the economic performance of this entity are shared equally by the Company and its joint venture partner, there is no primary beneficiary. Accordingly, this interest is recorded using the equity method.

The VIE JV owns a single self-storage property. This joint venture is financed through a combination of (1) equity contributions from the Company and its joint venture partner, (2) a primary mortgage note payable and (3) amounts payable to the Company. The amounts payable to the Company consist of expenses paid on behalf of the joint venture by the Company as manager and a secondary mortgage note payable to the Company. The Company performs management services for the VIE JV in exchange for a management fee of approximately 6% of cash collected by the property. Except as disclosed, the Company has not provided financial or other support during the periods presented to the VIE JV that it was not previously contractually obligated to provide.

The Company guarantees the primary mortgage note payable for the VIE JV. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss for this joint venture as of September 30, 2013 is the total of the guaranteed loan balance, amounts payable to the Company and the Company’s investment balance in the joint venture. The Company believes that the risk of incurring a material loss as a result of having to perform on the loan guarantee is unlikely and, therefore, no liability has been recorded related to this guarantee. Additionally, repossessing and/or selling the self-storage facility and land that collateralize the loan could provide funds sufficient to reimburse the Company.

The Operating Partnership has three wholly-owned unconsolidated subsidiaries (“Trust,” “Trust II” and “Trust III,” together, the “Trusts”) that have issued trust preferred securities to third parties and common securities to the Operating Partnership.  The proceeds from the sale of the preferred and common securities were loaned in the form of notes to the Operating Partnership.  The Trusts are VIEs because the holders of the equity investment at risk (the trust preferred securities) do not have the power to direct the activities of the entities that most significantly affect the entities’ economic performance because of their lack of voting or similar rights.  Because the Operating Partnership’s investment in the Trusts’ common securities was financed directly by the Trusts as a result of its loan of the proceeds to the Operating Partnership, that investment is not considered an equity investment at risk.  The Operating Partnership’s investment in the Trusts is not a variable interest because equity interests are variable interests only to the extent that the investment is considered to be at risk, and therefore the Operating Partnership cannot be the primary beneficiary of the Trusts.  Since the Company is not the primary beneficiary of the Trusts, they have not been consolidated.  A debt obligation has been recorded in the form of notes for the proceeds as discussed above, which are owed to the Trusts.  The Company has also included its investment in the Trusts’ common securities in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company has not provided financing or other support during the periods presented to the Trusts that it was not previously contractually obligated to provide.  The Company’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with the Trusts is equal to the total amount of the notes discussed above less the amounts of the Company’s investments in the Trusts’ common securities.  The net amount is the notes payable that the Trusts owe to third parties for their investments in the Trusts’ preferred securities.

The following is a tabular comparison of the liabilities the Company has recorded as a result of its involvement with the Trusts to the maximum exposure to loss the Company is subject to as a result of such involvement as of September 30, 2013:

7. DERIVATIVES

The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources and duration of its debt funding and by using derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposure that arises from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to the Company’s investments and borrowings.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish these objectives, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable

15



Table of Contents

amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings.  A portion of these changes is excluded from accumulated other comprehensive income as it is allocated to noncontrolling interests.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing variable-rate debt.

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features

The Company has agreements with some of its derivative counterparties that contain provisions pursuant to which, the Company could be declared in default of its derivative obligations if the Company defaults on any of its indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender.

The Company also has an agreement with some of its derivative counterparties that incorporates the loan covenant provisions of the Company’s indebtedness with a lender affiliate of the derivative counterparty. Failure to comply with the loan covenant provisions would result in the Company being in default on any derivative instrument obligations covered by the agreement.

As of September 30, 2013, the fair value of derivatives in a net liability position, which includes accrued interest but excludes any adjustment for nonperformance risk related to these agreements, was $5,162. As of September 30, 2013, the Company

had not posted any collateral related to these agreements. If the Company had breached any of these provisions as of September 30, 2013, it could have been required to settle its obligations under the agreements at their termination value of $5,162.

8. EXCHANGEABLE SENIOR NOTES

On June 21, 2013, the Operating Partnership issued $250,000 of its 2.375% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2033 at a 1.5% discount, or $3,750.  Costs incurred to issue the Notes were approximately $1,672.  These costs are being amortized as an adjustment to interest expense over five years, which represents the estimated term based on the first available redemption date, and are included in other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.  The Notes are general unsecured senior obligations of the Operating Partnership and are fully guaranteed by the Company.  Interest is payable on January 1 and July 1 of each year beginning January 1, 2014, until the maturity date of July 1, 2033.  The Notes bear interest at 2.375% per annum and contain an exchange settlement feature, which provides that the Notes may, under certain circumstances, be exchangeable for cash (for the principal amount of the Notes) and, with respect to any excess exchange value, for cash, shares of the Company’s common stock or a combination of cash and shares of the Company’s common stock at the Company’s option.  The initial exchange rate of the Notes is approximately 17.96 shares of the Company’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes.

The Operating Partnership may redeem the Notes at any time to preserve the Company’s status as a REIT.  In addition, on or after July 5, 2018, the Operating Partnership may redeem the Notes for cash, in whole or in part, at 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, upon at least 30 days but not more than 60 days prior written notice to the holders of the Notes.  The holders of the Notes have the right to require the Operating Partnership to repurchase the Notes for cash, in whole or in part, on July 1 of the years 2018, 2023, and 2028, and upon the occurrence of certain designated events, in each case for a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest.  Certain events are considered “Events of Default,” as defined in the indenture governing the Notes, which may result in the accelerated maturity of the Notes.

GAAP requires entities with convertible debt instruments that may be settled entirely or partially in cash upon conversion to separately account for the liability and equity components of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer’s economic interest cost.  The Company therefore accounts for the liability and equity components of the Notes separately.  The equity component is included in paid-in capital in stockholders’ equity in the condensed consolidated balance sheet, and the value of the equity component is treated as original issue discount for purposes of accounting for the debt component.  The discount is being amortized as interest expense over the remaining period of the debt through its first redemption date, July 1, 2018. The effective interest rate on the liability component is 4.0%.

Information about the carrying amount of the equity component, the principal amount of the liability component, its unamortized discount and its net carrying amount were as follows for the periods indicated:

9. NONCONTROLLING INTEREST REPRESENTED BY PREFERRED OPERATING PARTNERSHIP UNITS

Classification of Noncontrolling Interests

GAAP requires a company to present ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the company in the consolidated financial statements within the equity section, but separate from the company’s equity.  It also requires the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest to be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statement of operations and requires changes in ownership interest to be accounted for similarly as equity transactions.  If noncontrolling interests are determined to be redeemable, they are to be carried at their redemption value as of the balance sheet date and reported as temporary equity.

The Company has evaluated the terms of the Preferred OP Units and classifies the noncontrolling interest represented by the Preferred OP units as stockholders’ equity in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.  The Company will periodically evaluate individual noncontrolling interests for the ability to continue to recognize the noncontrolling amount as permanent equity in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.  Any noncontrolling interests that fail to qualify as permanent equity will be reclassified as temporary equity and adjusted to the greater of (1) the carrying amount, or (2) its redemption value as of the end of the period in which the determination is made.

Series A Participating Redeemable Preferred Units

On June 15, 2007, the Operating Partnership entered into a Contribution Agreement with various limited partnerships affiliated with AAAAA Rent-A-Space to acquire ten self-storage facilities (the “Properties”) in exchange for 989,980 Series A Units of the Operating Partnership. The self-storage facilities are located in California and Hawaii.

On June 25, 2007, the Operating Partnership loaned the holders of the Series A Units $100,000. The note receivable bears interest at 4.85% and is due September 1, 2017. The loan is secured by the borrower’s Series A Units. The holders of the Series A Units can convert up to 114,500 Series A Units prior to the maturity date of the loan. If any redemption in excess of 114,500 Series A Units occurs prior to the maturity date, the holder of the Series A Units is required to repay the loan as of the date of that redemption. Preferred OP Units are shown on the balance sheet net of the $100,000 loan because the borrower under the loan receivable is also the holder of the Series A Units.

The Operating Partnership entered into a Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership (as subsequently amended, the “Partnership Agreement”) which provides for the designation and issuance of the Series A Units. The Series A Units will have priority over all other partnership interests of the Operating Partnership with respect to distributions and liquidation.

Under the Partnership Agreement, Series A Units in the amount of $115,000 bear a fixed priority return of 5% and have a fixed liquidation value of $115,000. The remaining balance participates in distributions with, and has a liquidation value equal to, that of the common OP units. The Series A Units became redeemable at the option of the holder on September 1, 2008, which redemption obligation may be satisfied, at the Company’s option, in cash or shares of its common stock.

Series B Redeemable Preferred Units

On August 29, 2013, the Operating Partnership completed the purchase of 19 out of 20 self-storage facilities affiliated with All Aboard Mini Storage, all of which are located in California.  On September 26, 2013, the Operating Partnership completed the purchase of the remaining facility.  These properties were acquired in exchange for $100,876 in cash (including $98,960 of debt assumed and immediately defeased at closing), 1,342,727 Series B Units valued at $33,568, and 1,448,108 common OP Units valued at $62,341.

The Operating Partnership entered into a Third Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership which provides for the designation and issuance of Series B Units.  The Series B Units rank junior to Series A Units but will have priority over all other partnership interests of the Operating Partnership with respect to distribution and liquidation.

18



Table of Contents

The Series B Units have a fixed value of $25 per unit for a fixed liquidation value of $33,568, and have limited voting rights.  Holders of the Series B Units receive distributions at an annual rate of 6%.  These distributions are cumulative and accrue each quarter regardless of the declaration of dividends or distributions. The Series B Units will become redeemable at the option of the holder on August 29, 2014, which redemption obligation may be satisfied at the Company’s option in cash or shares of its common stock.

As of September 30, 2013, the Company’s ability to issue stock upon redemption of the Series B Units was not solely within its control.  Therefore, the Company reported the Series B Units in temporary equity on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, as required by GAAP.

10. NONCONTROLLING INTEREST IN OPERATING PARTNERSHIP

The Company’s interest in its properties is held through the Operating Partnership. ESS Holding Business Trust I, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. The Company, through ESS Holding Business Trust II, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, is also a limited partner of the Operating Partnership. Between its general partner and limited partner interests, the Company held a 94.3% majority ownership interest therein as of September 30, 2013. The remaining ownership interests in the Operating Partnership (including Preferred OP units) of 5.7% are held by certain former owners of assets acquired by the Operating Partnership.  As of September 30, 2013, the Operating Partnership had 4,346,618 common OP units outstanding.

The noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership represents common OP Units that are not owned by the Company. In conjunction with the formation of the Company, and as a result of subsequent acquisitions, certain persons and entities contributing interests in properties to the Operating Partnership received limited partnership units in the form of OP Units. Limited partners who received OP Units in the formation transactions or in exchange for contributions for interests in properties have the right to require the Operating Partnership to redeem part or all of their common OP units for cash based upon the fair market value of an equivalent number of shares of the Company’s common stock (ten-day average) at the time of the redemption. Alternatively, the Company may, at its option, elect to acquire those OP Units in exchange for shares of its common stock on a one-for-one basis, subject to anti-dilution adjustments provided in the Partnership Agreement.  The ten-day average closing stock price at September 30, 2013, was $46.02 and there were 4,346,618 common OP Units outstanding that were not owned by the Company. Assuming that all of the noncontrolling members exercised their right to redeem all of their common OP Units on September 30, 2013, and the Company elected to pay the noncontrolling members cash, the Company would have paid $200,031 in cash consideration to redeem the OP Units.

GAAP requires a company to present ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the company in the consolidated financial statements within the equity section, but separate from the company’s equity.  It also requires the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest to be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statement of operations, and requires changes in ownership interest to be accounted for similarly as equity transactions.  If noncontrolling interests are determined to be redeemable, they are to be carried at their redemption value as of the balance sheet date and reported as temporary equity.

The Company has evaluated the terms of the common OP Units and classifies the noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership as stockholders’ equity in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.  The Company will periodically evaluate individual noncontrolling interests for the ability to continue to recognize the noncontrolling amount as permanent equity in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.  Any noncontrolling interests that fail to qualify as permanent equity will be reclassified as temporary equity and adjusted to the greater of (1) the carrying amount, or (2) the redemption value as of the end of the period in which the determination is made.

11. OTHER NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS

Other noncontrolling interests represent the ownership interests of various third parties in two consolidated self-storage properties as of September 30, 2013.  One of these consolidated properties was undeveloped at September 30, 2013.  The ownership interests of the third-party owners range from 3.3% to 10.0%.  Other noncontrolling interests are included in the stockholders’ equity section of the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet.  The income or losses attributable to these third-party owners based on percentages outlined in the related agreements are reflected in net income allocated to Operating Partnership and other noncontrolling interests in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

In February 2013, the Company purchased one of its joint venture partner’s 1.7% capital interest and 17% profit interest in one of these consolidated properties for $200.  As a result, the Company’s capital interest percentage in this joint venture increased from 95% to 96.7%.  Since the Company retained its controlling financial interest in the subsidiary, this transaction was accounted for as an equity transaction.  The carrying amount of the noncontrolling interest was reduced to reflect the

19



Table of Contents

purchase and the difference between the price paid by the Company and the adjustment to the carrying value of the noncontrolling interest was recorded as an adjustment to equity attributable to the parent.

In May 2013, the Company purchased one of its joint venture partner’s 27.65% capital interest and 35% profit interest in a previously unconsolidated joint venture for $950.  The partner’s interest was reported in other noncontrolling interests prior to the purchase.  As a result of the acquisition, the property became wholly-owned by the Company.  Since the Company retained its controlling financial interest in the subsidiary, this transaction was accounted for as an equity transaction.  The carrying amount of the noncontrolling interest was reduced to zero to reflect the purchase and the difference between the price paid by the Company and the carrying value of the noncontrolling interest was recorded as an adjustment to equity attributable to the parent.

12. EQUITY IN EARNINGS OF UNCONSOLIDATED REAL ESTATE VENTURES — GAIN ON SALE OF REAL ESTATE ASSETS AND PURCHASE OF JOINT VENTURE PARTNERS’ INTERESTS

On February 13, 2013, the Company acquired its joint venture partner’s 48% equity interest in Extra Space of Eastern Avenue LLC (“Eastern Avenue”), which owned one self-storage property located in Maryland, for approximately $5,979. Prior to the acquisition, the remaining 52% interest was owned by the Company, which accounted for its investment in Eastern Avenue using the equity method. The Company recorded a non-cash gain of $2,215 related to this transaction, which represents the increase in fair value of the Company’s interest in Eastern Avenue from its formation to the acquisition date.

On February 13, 2013, the Company acquired its joint venture partner’s 61% equity interest in Extra Space of Montrose Avenue LLC (“Montrose”), which owned one self-storage property located in Illinois, for approximately $6,878. Prior to the acquisition, the remaining 39% interest was owned by the Company, which accounted for its investment in Montrose using the equity method. The Company recorded a non-cash gain of $341 related to this transaction, which represents the increase in fair value of the Company’s interest in the joint venture from its formation to the acquisition date.

On July 2, 2012, the Company completed the acquisition of Prudential Real Estate Investors’ 94.9% interest in the ESS PRISA III LLC joint venture (“PRISA III”).  PRISA III was formed in 2005 and owned 36 properties located in 18 states.  Prior to the acquisition, the remaining 5.1% interest was owned by the Company, which accounted for its investment in PRISA III using the equity method.  Subsequent to the acquisition, the Company had full ownership of PRISA III.  GAAP requires an entity that completes a business combination in stages to remeasure its previously held equity interest in the acquiree at its acquisition date fair value and recognize the resulting gain or loss, if any, in earnings.  The Company recorded a non-cash gain of $13,499 related to this transaction, which represents the increase in fair value of the Company’s 5.1% interest in PRISA III from the formation of the joint venture to the acquisition date.

On February 17, 2012, a joint venture in which the Company held a 40% equity interest sold its only self-storage property, which was located in New York. As a result of the sale, the joint venture was dissolved, and the Company received proceeds which resulted in a cash gain of $5,550.

On January 15, 2012, the Company sold its 40% equity interest in U-Storage de Mexico S.A. and related entities to its joint venture partners for $4,841. The Company received cash of $1,492 and a note receivable of $3,349. No gain or loss was recorded on the sale. At September 30, 2013, the balance of the note receivable was $1,500.  The note receivable is due December 31, 2014.

If the joint venture defaults on the loan, the Company may be forced to repay the loan. Repossessing and/or selling the self-storage facility and land that collateralize the loan could provide funds sufficient to reimburse the Company. The Company has recorded no liability in relation to this guarantee as of September 30, 2013, as the fair value of the guarantee was not material. The Company believes the risk of incurring a material loss as a result of having to perform on this guarantee is remote.

As of September 30, 2013, the Company was not involved in any material litigation nor, to its knowledge, was any material litigation threatened against it which, in the opinion of management, is expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

15. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On October 15, 2013, the Company acquired one property located in Georgia for an approximate purchase price of $12,400.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

Amounts in thousands, except property and share data

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

CAUTIONARY LANGUAGE

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our “ Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” and the “ Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” appearing elsewhere in this report and the “Consolidated Financial Statements,” “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” contained in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. We make statements in this section that are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. For a complete discussion of forward-looking statements, see the section in this Form 10-Q entitled “ Statement on Forward-Looking Information .” (Amounts in thousands, except property and share data, unless otherwise stated).

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained elsewhere in this report, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained elsewhere in this report and the audited financial statements contained in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 describe the significant accounting policies essential to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Preparation of our financial statements requires estimates, judgments and assumptions. We believe that the estimates, judgments and assumptions that we have used are appropriate and correct based on information available at the time they were made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect our reported assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the period presented. If there are material differences between these estimates, judgments and assumptions and actual facts, our financial statements may be affected.

In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by GAAP and does not require our judgment in its application. There are areas in which our judgment in selecting among available alternatives would not produce a materially different result, but there are some areas in which our judgment in selecting among available alternatives would produce a materially different result. See the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements that contain additional information regarding our accounting policies and other disclosures.

OVERVIEW

We are a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed REIT, formed to continue the business commenced in 1977 by our predecessor companies to own, operate, manage, acquire, develop and redevelop professionally managed self-storage properties. We derive our revenues from rents received from tenants under existing leases at each of our self-storage properties; management fees on the properties we manage for joint venture partners and unaffiliated third parties; and our tenant reinsurance program.  Our management fee is equal to approximately 6% of total revenues generated by the managed properties.

We operate in competitive markets, often where consumers have multiple self-storage properties from which to choose. Competition has impacted, and will continue to impact, our property results. We experience seasonal fluctuations in occupancy levels, with occupancy levels generally higher in the summer months due to increased moving activity. Our operating results depend materially on our ability to lease available self-storage units and actively manage rental rates, and on the ability of our tenants to make required rental payments. We believe we are able to respond quickly and effectively to changes in local, regional and national economic conditions by centrally adjusting rental rates through the combination of our revenue management team and our industry-leading technology systems.

We continue to evaluate a range of new initiatives and opportunities in order to enable us to maximize stockholder value. Our strategies to maximize stockholder value include the following:

· Maximize the performance of properties through strategic, efficient and proactive management. We pursue revenue-generating and expense-minimizing opportunities in our operations. Our revenue management team seeks

23



Table of Contents

to maximize revenue by responding to changing market conditions through our advanced technology system’s ability to provide real-time, interactive rental rate and discount management. Our size allows us greater ability than the majority of our competitors to implement more effective online marketing programs, which we believe will attract more customers to our stores at a lower net cost.

· Acquire self-storage properties from strategic partners and third parties. Our acquisitions team continues to pursue the acquisition of single properties and multi-property portfolios that we believe can provide stockholder value. We have established a reputation as a reliable, ethical buyer, which we believe enhances our ability to negotiate and close acquisitions. In addition, we believe our status as an UPREIT enables flexibility when structuring deals.  We continue to see available acquisitions on which to bid and are seeing increasing prices.  However, we remain a disciplined buyer and look for acquisitions that will strengthen our portfolio and increase stockholder value.

· Expand our management business . Our management business enables us to generate increased revenues through management fees and to expand our geographic footprint. We believe this expanded footprint enables us to reduce our operating costs through economies of scale. In addition, we see our management business as a future acquisition pipeline. We pursue strategic relationships with owners whose properties would enhance our portfolio in the event an opportunity arises to acquire such properties.

PROPERTIES

As of September 30, 2013, we owned or held ownership interests in 754 operating properties. Of these operating properties, 475 were wholly-owned and 279 were owned in joint venture partnerships. In addition, we managed 253 properties for third parties, bringing the total number of operating properties that we owned and/or managed to 1,007.  These properties are located in 35 states, Washington, D.C. and Puerto Rico.  As of September 30, 2013, we owned and/or managed approximately 74.0 million square feet of space with approximately 667,000 units.

Our properties are generally situated in convenient, highly visible locations clustered around large population centers such as Atlanta, Baltimore/Washington, D.C., Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Miami, New York City, Orlando, Philadelphia, Phoenix, St. Petersburg/Tampa and San Francisco/Oakland. These areas all enjoy above-average population growth and income levels. The clustering of assets around these population centers enables us to reduce our operating costs thfrough economies of scale.  Our acquisitions and management business have given us an increased scale in many core markets as well as a foothold in many markets where we had no previous presence.

We consider a property to be in the lease-up stage after it has been issued a certificate of occupancy, but before it has achieved stabilization. We consider a property to be stabilized once it has achieved either an 80% average occupancy rate for a full year measured as of January 1, or has been open for three years.

As of September 30, 2013, over 575,000 tenants were leasing storage units at our 1,007 operating properties, primarily on a month-to-month basis, providing the flexibility to increase rental rates over time as markets permit.  Although leases are short-term in duration, the typical tenant tends to remain at our properties for an extended period of time. For properties that were stabilized as of September 30, 2013, the average length of stay was approximately 12.3 months. Existing tenants generally receive rate increases at least annually, for which no direct correlation has been drawn to our vacancy trends.  The average annual rent per square foot for our existing customers at stabilized properties, net of discounts and bad debt, was $14.12 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $13.44 for the same period ended September 30, 2012.  Average annual rent per square foot for new leases was $14.32 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $13.98 for the same period ended September 30, 2012.  The average discounts, as a percentage of rental revenues, during these periods were 3.8% and 5.0%, respectively.

Our property portfolio is made up of different types of construction and building configurations depending on the site and the municipality where it is located. Most often sites are what we consider “hybrid” facilities, a mix of both drive-up buildings and multi-floor buildings. We have a number of multi-floor buildings with elevator access only, and a number of facilities featuring ground-floor access only.

The following table presents additional information regarding the occupancy of our stabilized properties by state as of September 30, 2013 and 2012. The information as of September 30, 2012, is on a pro forma basis as though all the properties owned and/or managed at September 30, 2013, were under our control as of September 30, 2012.

Table of Contents

September 30, 2013. In addition, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, increases of $5,780 and $16,658, respectively, resulted from increases in occupancy and rental rates to existing customers at our stabilized properties, compared to the same periods for the prior year.  Occupancy at our wholly-owned stabilized properties increased to 90.0% at September 30, 2013, as compared to 88.3% at September 30, 2012.  Rental rates to new tenants increased approximately 2% to 3% over the same periods in the prior year.

Tenant Reinsurance — The increase in tenant reinsurance revenues was primarily due to the increase in the number of properties we owned and/or managed.  At September 30, 2013, we owned and/or managed 1,007 properties compared to 910 at September 30, 2012.  In addition, there was an increase of overall customer participation to 68.8% at September 30, 2013 compared to 66.6% at September 30, 2012.

Management Fees — Our taxable REIT subsidiary, Extra Space Management, Inc., manages properties owned by our joint ventures and third parties. Management fees generally represent 6% of revenues generated from properties owned by third parties and unconsolidated joint ventures.  We also earn an asset management fee from one of our joint ventures equal to 0.50% of the total asset value of the venture, provided certain conditions are met.  At September 30, 2013, we managed 532 properties, compared to 494 properties at September 30, 2012.

Property Operations The increase in property operations expense during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 consisted of increases in expenses associated with acquisition completed in 2013 and 2012.  We completed 91 property acquisitions during 2012 and 28 property acquisitions during the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

Tenant Reinsurance Tenant reinsurance expense represents the costs that are incurred to provide tenant reinsurance. The increase was due to claims resulting from fires at two properties and to the increase in the number of properties we owned and/or managed.  At September 30, 2013, we owned and/or managed 1,007 properties compared to 910 at September 30, 2012.  In addition, there was an increase of overall customer participation to 68.8% at September 30, 2013 compared to 66.6% at September 30, 2012.

Acquisition Related Costs Acquisition related costs relate to acquisition activities during the periods indicated.

General and Administrative General and administrative expenses primarily include all expenses not directly related to the properties, including corporate payroll, travel and professional fees.  These expenses are recognized as incurred. The increase in general and administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was primarily due to the overall cost associated with the management of additional properties. At September 30, 2013, we owned and/or managed 1,007 properties, compared to 910 properties at September 30, 2012. We did not observe any material trends in specific payroll, travel or other expenses that contributed significantly to the increase in general and administrative expenses apart from the increase due to the management of additional properties.

Depreciation and Amortization Depreciation and amortization expense increased as a result of the acquisition of new properties.  We acquired 91 properties during 2012 and 28 properties during the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

Gain on Sale of Real Estate Assets The gain on sale of real estate assets recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was due to the condemnation of a portion of land at one self-storage property we own in California that resulted from eminent domain.

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt Related to Portfolio Acquisition The loss on extinguishment of debt occurred as part of the loan assumption and immediate defeasance upon closing of a portfolio acquisition.

Interest Expense The decrease in interest expense during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was the result of a one-time benefit of approximately $2,500 related to the modification of existing debt, and a lower combined weighted average interest rate compared to the same periods in the prior year.  The weighted average interest rate of our fixed and variable debt was 3.8% as of September 30, 2013, compared to 4.2% as of September 30, 2012.  This decrease was offset slightly by an increase in our debt, including the issuance of 2.375% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2033 in June 2013 by Extra Space Storage LP (our “Operating Partnership”).  At September 30, 2013, the total face value of our debt, including our lines of credit was $1,772,022 compared to $1,586,489 at September 30, 2012.

Non-cash Interest Expense Related to Amortization of Discount on Equity Component of Exchangeable Senior Notes Represents the amortization of the discount related to the equity component of the exchangeable senior notes issued by our Operating Partnership, which reflects the effective interest rate relative to the carrying amount of the liability.  Our Operating Partnership had $87,663 of its 3.625% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2027 outstanding prior to April 2012, when all of these notes were surrendered for exchange.  In June 2013, our Operating Partnership issued $250,000 of its 2.375% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2033.

Interest Income Interest income represents amounts earned on cash and cash equivalents deposited with financial institutions and interest earned on notes receivable.  The decrease in interest income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was primarily due to a decrease in notes receivable.  We held notes receivable, including notes from related parties, of $19,232 at September 30, 2012 compared to $12,295 at September 30, 2013.

Interest Income on Note Receivable from Preferred Operating Partnership Unit Holder — Represents interest on a $100,000 loan to the holders of the Series A Participating Redeemable Preferred Units of our Operating Partnership (the “Series A Units”).

Equity in Earnings of Unconsolidated Real Estate Ventures The increase in equity in earnings of unconsolidated real estate ventures for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was due primarily to increased revenues at our joint ventures as a result of increases in occupancy and rental rates to new and existing customers.  These increases were offset by decreases related to the purchase of our joint venture partners’ interests in joint ventures in July 2012, November 2012 and February 2013.

Table of Contents

Equity in Earnings of Unconsolidated Real Estate Ventures — Gain on Sale of Real Estate Assets and Purchase of Joint Venture Partners’ Interests — In February 2013, we acquired our partner’s equity interests in two joint ventures that each held one self-storage property.  As a result of the acquisitions, we recognized non-cash gains of $2,556, which represents the increase in fair values of our prior interests in the joint ventures from their formations to the acquisition dates.

In February 2012, a joint venture in which we held a 40% equity interest sold its only self-storage property.  As a result of the sale, the joint venture was dissolved, and we received proceeds which resulted in a cash gain of $5,550.  On July 2, 2012, we acquired Prudential Real Estate Investors’ 94.9% interest in the ESS PRISA III LLC joint venture (“PRISA III”).  This transaction resulted in a non-cash gain of $13,499, which represents the increase in the fair value of our 5.1% interest in PRISA III from the formation of the joint venture to the acquisition date.

Income Tax Expense — For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, the increase in income tax expense primarily related to increased tenant reinsurance income earned by our taxable REIT subsidiary and lower solar tax credits when compared to the same period of the prior year.

Net Income Allocated to Preferred Operating Partnership Noncontrolling Interests During August and September 2013, as part of a portfolio acquisition, our Operating Partnership issued 1,342,727 Series B Redeemable Preferred Units (“Series B Units”).  The Series B Units have a fixed value of $25 per unit and receive distributions at an annual rate of 6%.

Income allocated to the Preferred Operating Partnership noncontrolling interests for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 represents the fixed distributions paid to the holders of the Series A Units plus approximately 1.9% of the remaining net income allocated after the adjustment for the fixed distribution paid.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, income allocated to the Preferred Operating Partnership noncontrolling interest equals the fixed distribution paid to the Series A Unit holder, plus approximately 0.9% of the remaining net income allocated after the adjustment for the fixed distribution paid.  The increase in the percentage was primarily a result of the issuance of the Series B Units as noted above.

Net Income Allocated to Operating Partnership and Other Noncontrolling Interests Income allocated to the Operating Partnership as of September 30, 2013 and 2012 represents approximately 3.4% and 2.8%, respectively, of net income after the allocation of the fixed distribution paid to the Preferred OP unit holders.  The increase in this percentage was primarily the result of the issuance of 1,448,108 common OP Units as part of a portfolio acquisition completed during August and September 2013.

Income allocated to other noncontrolling interests represents the income allocated to partners in consolidated joint ventures. The increase in net income allocated to operating partnership and other noncontrolling interests for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, when compared to the same period last year, was primarily the result of an increase in net income.  Conversely, the decrease in net income allocated to operating partnership and other noncontrolling interests for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was due to a decrease in net income when compared to the same period in the prior year.

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS

Funds from Operations (“FFO”) provides relevant and meaningful information about our operating performance that is necessary, along with net income and cash flows, for an understanding of our operating results. We believe FFO is a meaningful disclosure as a supplement to net earnings. Net earnings assume that the values of real estate assets diminish predictably over time as reflected through depreciation and amortization expenses.  The values of real estate assets fluctuate due to market conditions and we believe FFO more accurately reflects the value of our real estate assets.  FFO is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“NAREIT”) as net income computed in accordance with

30



Table of Contents

GAAP, excluding gains or losses on sales of operating properties and impairment write downs of depreciable real estate assets, plus depreciation and amortization and after adjustments to record unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures on the same basis. We believe that to further understand our performance, FFO should be considered along with the reported net income and cash flows in accordance with GAAP, as presented in our consolidated financial statements.

The computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs or real estate companies that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indication of our performance, as an alternative to net cash flow from operating activities, as a measure of liquidity, or an indicator of our ability to make cash distributions.

The increases in same-store rental and tenant reinsurance revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the same periods ended September 30, 2012, were due primarily to an increase in occupancy of 1.7%, a decrease in discounts to new customers, and an average increase of 2% to 3% in incoming rates to new tenants.  The increases in same-store operating and tenant reinsurance expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 were primarily due to higher payroll, insurance and repairs and maintenance expenses.

CASH FLOWS

Cash flows provided by operating activities were $198,584 and $152,961 respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. The increase compared to the same period of the prior year primarily related to increases in net income of $14,568, and depreciation and amortization of $16,320.

Cash used in investing activities was $100,303 and $375,069, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.  The decrease related primarily to a decrease in acquisition, development and redevelopment of real estate assets of $281,863.

Cash used in financing activities was $47,367 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to cash provided by financing activities of $239,232, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.  The decrease related primarily to a decrease in proceeds from the sale of common stock of $226,692, a decrease in proceeds from notes payable and lines of credit of $275,800, an increase in principal payments on notes payable and lines of credit, including defeasance of $58,999 and an increase in dividends paid on common stock of $56,019.  These decreases were offset by an increase in proceeds of $246,250 from the Operating Partnership’s issuance of its 2.375% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2033 and a decrease of $87,663 in cash used to repurchase the Operating Partnership’s 3.625% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2027.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of September 30, 2013, we had $81,699 available in cash and cash equivalents. We intend to use this cash to pay for future acquisitions, to repay debt and for general corporate purposes. We are required to distribute at least 90% of our net taxable income, excluding net capital gains, to our stockholders on an annual basis to maintain our qualification as a REIT.

Our cash and cash equivalents are held in accounts managed by third party financial institutions and consist of invested cash and cash in our operating accounts. During 2012 and the first nine months of 2013, we experienced no loss or lack of access to our cash or cash equivalents; however, there can be no assurance that access to our cash and cash equivalents will not be impacted by adverse conditions in the financial markets.

The following table presents information on our lines of credit for the periods indicated.  All of our lines of credit are guaranteed by us and secured by mortgages on certain real estate assets.

As of September 30, 2013, we had $1,772,022 face value of debt, resulting in a debt to total market capitalization ratio of 24.8%.  As of September 30, 2013, the ratio of total fixed-rate debt and other instruments to total debt was 85.7% (including $856,427 on which we have interest rate swaps that have been included as fixed-rate debt). The weighted average interest rate of the total of fixed and variable-rate debt at September 30, 2013 was 3.8%.  Certain of our real estate assets are pledged as collateral for our debt. We are subject to certain restrictive covenants relating to our outstanding debt. We were in compliance with all financial covenants at September 30, 2013.

We expect to fund our short-term liquidity requirements, including operating expenses, recurring capital expenditures, dividends to stockholders, distributions to holders of OP Units and interest on our outstanding indebtedness, out of our operating cash flow, cash on hand and borrowings under our lines of credit. In addition, we are pursuing additional term loans secured by unencumbered properties.

Our liquidity needs consist primarily of cash distributions to stockholders, property acquisitions, principal payments under our borrowings and non-recurring capital expenditures. We may from time to time seek to retire or repurchase shares of common stock or other securities in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors.  In addition, we evaluate, on an ongoing basis, the merits of strategic acquisitions and other relationships, which may require us to raise additional funds. We do not expect that our operating cash flow or cash balances will be sufficient to fund our liquidity needs and instead expect to fund such needs out of additional borrowings of secured or unsecured indebtedness, joint ventures with third parties, and from the proceeds of public and private offerings of equity and debt. Additional capital may not be available on terms favorable to us or at all. Any additional issuance of equity or equity-linked securities may result in dilution to our stockholders. In addition, any new securities we issue could have rights, preferences and privileges senior to holders of our common stock. We may also use OP Units as currency to fund acquisitions from self-storage owners who desire tax-deferral in their exiting transactions.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

Except as disclosed in the notes to our consolidated financial statements of our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K, we do not currently have 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 in the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements, we have not guaranteed any obligations of unconsolidated entities, nor do we have any commitments 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.

The operating leases above include minimum future lease payments on ground leases for 17 of our operating properties as well as leases of our corporate offices.  Two ground leases include additional contingent rental payments based on the level of revenue achieved at the property.

At September 30, 2013, the weighted-average interest rate for all fixed-rate loans was 4.0%, and the weighted-average interest rate for all variable-rate loans was 2.2%.

FINANCING STRATEGY

We will continue to employ leverage in our capital structure in amounts reviewed from time to time by our board of directors. Although our board of directors has not adopted a policy that limits the total amount of indebtedness that we may incur, we 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- or variable-rate. In making financing decisions, we will consider factors including but not limited to:

· the interest rate of the proposed financing;

· the extent to which the financing impacts flexibility in managing our properties;

· prepayment penalties and restrictions on refinancing;

33



Table of Contents

· the purchase price of properties acquired 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 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 we 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.

SEASONALITY

The self-storage business is subject to seasonal fluctuations. A greater portion of revenues and profits are realized from May through September. Historically, our highest level of occupancy has been at the end of July, while our 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.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market Risk

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

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political considerations and other factors beyond our control.

As of September 30, 2013, we had approximately $1.8 billion in total debt, of which approximately $252.8 million was subject to variable interest rates (excluding debt with interest rate swaps). If the applicable LIBOR were to change by 100 basis points, the effect on interest expense on the variable-rate debt (excluding variable-rate debt with interest rate floors) would affect future earnings and cash flows by approximately $2.1 million annually.

Interest rate 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. 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 values of our fixed-rate assets and liabilities were as follows for the periods indicated:

The fair value of our note receivable from Preferred Operating Partnership unit holder was based on the discounted estimated future cash flows of the note (categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy); the discount rate used approximated the current market rate for loans with similar maturities and credit quality.  The fair values of our fixed-rate notes payable and notes payable to trusts were estimated using the discounted estimated future cash payments to be made on such debt (categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy); the discount rates used approximated current market rates for loans, or groups of loans, with similar maturities and credit quality.  The fair value of the Company’s exchangeable senior notes was estimated using an average market price obtained from a third party.  Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment.  Settlement of such fair value amounts may not be possible and may not be a prudent management decision.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(1) Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based on the definition of “disclosure controls and procedures” in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide a reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and in reaching a reasonable level of assurance, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

We have a disclosure committee that is responsible to ensure that all disclosures made by the Company to its security holders or to the investment community will be accurate and complete and fairly present the Company’s financial condition and results of operations in all material respects, and are made on a timely basis as required by applicable laws, regulations and stock exchange requirements.

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of the end of the period covered by this report.

(2) Changes in internal control over financial reporting
