DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE
Part III incorporates certain information by reference to First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc.'s definitive proxy statement expected to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission no later than 120 days after the end of First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc.'s fiscal year.
EXPLANATORY NOTE
This report combines the Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2024 of First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the "Company"), and First Industrial, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the "Operating Partnership"). Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, the terms "we," "our" and "us" refer to the Company and its subsidiaries, including the Operating Partnership and its consolidated subsidiaries.
The Company is a real estate investment trust and the general partner of the Operating Partnership. At December 31, 2024, the Company owned an approximate 97.3% common general partnership interest in the Operating Partnership. The remaining approximate 2.7% common limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership are owned by limited partners. The limited partners of the Operating Partnership primarily include persons or entities who contributed their direct or indirect interests in properties to the Operating Partnership in exchange for limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership and recipients of RLP Units (as defined in Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements) of the Operating Partnership pursuant to the Company's Stock Incentive Plan (as defined in Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Company exercises exclusive and complete discretion over the Operating Partnership's day-to-day management and control and can cause it to enter into certain major transactions, including acquisitions, dispositions and refinancings. The management of the Company consists of the same members as the management of the Operating Partnership.
The Company and the Operating Partnership are managed and operated as one enterprise. The financial results of the Operating Partnership are consolidated into the financial statements of the Company. The Company has no significant assets other than its investment in the Operating Partnership. Substantially all of the Company's assets are held by, and its operations are conducted through, the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries. Therefore, the assets and liabilities of the Company and the Operating Partnership are substantially the same.
We believe it is important to understand the differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership in the context of how the Company and the Operating Partnership operate as an interrelated, consolidated company. The main areas of difference between the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and those of the Operating Partnership are:
•
Equity, Noncontrolling Interest and Partners' Capital.
The 2.7% equity interest in the Operating Partnership held by persons or entities other than the Company is classified as limited partners units in the Operating Partnership's financial statements and as a noncontrolling interest in the Company's financial statements.
•
Relationship to
Other
Real Estate Partnerships
. The Company's operations are primarily conducted through the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries. Additionally, several other limited partnerships, referred to as the "Other Real Estate Partnerships," also contribute to operations. In each of these partnerships, the Operating Partnership is a limited partner, holding at least a 99% interest, while the Company acts as general partner, holding at least .01% interest, held through several separate wholly-owned corporations. The Other Real Estate Partnerships are variable interest entities consolidated by both the Company and the Operating Partnership. The Company's direct general partnership interests in the Other Real Estate Partnerships are reflected as noncontrolling interests within the Operating Partnership's financial statements.
•
Relationship to Service Subsidiary.
The Company has a direct wholly-owned subsidiary that does not own any real estate but provides services to various entities owned by the Company. Since the Operating Partnership does not hold an ownership interest in this entity, its operations are reflected in the consolidated results of the Company but not in those of the Operating Partnership. Also, this entity has outstanding obligations to the Operating Partnership, which are recorded as a receivable on the Operating Partnership's balance sheet but is eliminated on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet, since both this entity and the Operating Partnership are fully consolidated by the Company.
We believe combining the Company's and Operating Partnership's annual reports into this single report results in the following benefits:
•
enhances investors' understanding of the Company and the Operating Partnership by enabling them to view the business as a whole and in the same manner as management views and operates the business;
•
creates time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports; and
•
eliminates duplicative disclosures and provides a more streamlined and readable presentation since a substantial portion of the Company's disclosure applies to both the Company and the Operating Partnership.
To help investors understand the differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership, this report provides the following disclosures for each of the Company and the Operating Partnership:
•
Consolidated Financial Statements;
•
a single set of consolidated notes to such financial statements that includes separate discussions of each entity's equity or partners' capital, as applicable; and
•
a combined Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section that includes distinct information related to each entity.
This report also includes separate Part II, Item 9A, Controls and Procedures sections and separate Exhibit 31 and 32 certifications for the Company and the Operating Partnership in order to establish that the requisite certifications have been made and that the Company and the Operating Partnership are both compliant with Rule 13a-15 and Rule 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and 18 U.S.C. §1350.

PART I
THE COMPANY
| Item 1. | Business | ||||
Background
First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc. is a self-administered and fully integrated real estate company which owns, manages, acquires, sells, develops and redevelops industrial real estate. The Company is a Maryland corporation organized on August 10, 1993 and a real estate investment trust ("REIT") as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"). As of December 31, 2024, our in-service portfolio consisted of 412 industrial properties, located in 19 states, containing an aggregate of approximately 66.7 million square feet of gross leasable area ("GLA").
We began operations on July 1, 1994. The Company's operations are conducted primarily through the Operating Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership formed on November 23, 1993 of which the Company is the sole general partner (the "General Partner"), with an approximate 97.3% ownership interest ("General Partner Units") at December 31, 2024. The Operating Partnership also conducts operations through several other limited partnerships (the "Other Real Estate Partnerships"), numerous limited liability companies ("LLCs") and certain taxable REIT subsidiaries ("TRSs"), the operating data of which, together with that of the Operating Partnership, is consolidated with that of the Company as presented herein. The Operating Partnership holds at least a 99% limited partnership interest in each of the Other Real Estate Partnerships. The general partners of the Other Real Estate Partnerships are separate corporations, wholly-owned by the Company, each with at least a .01% general partnership interest in the Other Real Estate Partnerships. The Company does not have any significant assets or liabilities other than its investment in the Operating Partnership and its 100% ownership interest in the general partners of the Other Real Estate Partnerships. The noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership of approximately 2.7% at December 31, 2024, represents the aggregate partnership interest held by the limited partners thereof ("Limited Partner Units" and together with the General Partner Units, the "Units").
Through a wholly-owned TRS of the Operating Partnership, we own an equity interest in a joint venture (the "Joint Venture"). We also provide various services to the Joint Venture. The Joint Venture is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The operating data of the Joint Venture is not consolidated with that of the Company or the Operating Partnership as presented herein.
Business Objectives and Growth Plans
Our fundamental business objective is to maximize the total return to the Company's stockholders and the Operating Partnership's partners by increasing our cash flow and property values. Our long-term business growth plans include the following elements:
•
Internal Growth.
We seek to grow internally by: (i) increasing revenues by renewing or re-leasing spaces subject to expiring leases at higher rental levels; (ii) obtaining contractual rent escalations on our long-term leases; (iii) increasing occupancy levels at properties where vacancies exist and maintaining occupancy elsewhere; (iv) controlling and minimizing property operating expenses, general and administrative expenses and releasing costs; and (v) renovating existing properties.
•
External Growth.
We seek to grow externally through: (i) the development of best-in-class industrial properties and the acquisition of individual and portfolios of industrial properties, which meet our investment parameters within our 15 key logistics markets, with a primary emphasis on coastal markets; and (ii) the expansion of our existing properties.
•
Portfolio Enhancement.
We continually seek to upgrade our overall portfolio by making new investments and selling assets that lack strong long-term cash flow growth potential. Our focus is on 15 key logistics markets, with a primary emphasis on coastal markets, which exhibit desirable long-term growth characteristics and where developable land is relatively scarce.
Our ability to pursue our long-term growth plans is affected by market conditions and our financial condition and operating capabilities. See "Summary of Significant Transactions in 2024" under Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."
4
Business Strategies
We utilize the following strategies in connection with the operation of our business:
•
Organizational Strategy.
We implement a decentralized property operations strategy through the deployment of experienced regional management teams and local property managers. We provide acquisition, development and financing assistance, asset management oversight and financial reporting functions from our headquarters in Chicago, Illinois to support our regional operations. We believe the size of our portfolio enables us to realize operating efficiencies by spreading overhead among many properties and by negotiating purchasing discounts.
•
Market Strategy.
Our market strategy is to concentrate on 15 key logistics markets in the United States, with a primary emphasis on coastal markets. These markets have one or more of the following characteristics: (i) favorable industrial real estate fundamentals, including improving industrial demand and constrained future supply that can lead to long-term rent growth; (ii) favorable and diversified economic and business environments that should benefit from increases in distribution activity driven by growth in global trade and local consumption; (iii) population growth as it generally drives industrial demand; (iv) natural barriers to entry and scarcity of land which are key elements in delivering future rent growth; (v) sufficient size to provide ample opportunity for growth through incremental investments and support asset liquidity; and (vi) favorable governmental, regulatory and tax environment.
•
Leasing and Marketing Strategy.
We have an operational management strategy designed to enhance tenant satisfaction and portfolio performance. We pursue an active leasing strategy that includes broadly marketing available space, seeking to renew existing leases at higher rents while minimizing re-leasing costs and seeking leases which provide for the pass-through of property-related expenses to the tenant. Additionally, we have both local and national marketing programs that target the business and real estate brokerage communities, as well as multi-national tenants.
•
Acquisition/Development Strategy.
Our investment strategy is primarily focused on developing and acquiring industrial properties in 15 key logistics markets in the United States, with an emphasis on markets with a coastal orientation, through the deployment of experienced regional management teams. When evaluating potential industrial property acquisitions and developments, we consider such factors as: (i) the geographic area and type of property; (ii) the location, construction quality, functionality, condition and design of the property; (iii) the terms of tenant leases, including the potential for rent increases; (iv) the potential for economic growth and the general business, tax and regulatory environment of the area in which the property is located; (v) the occupancy and demand by tenants for properties of a similar type in the vicinity; (vi) competition from existing properties and the potential for the construction of new properties in the area; (vii) the potential for capital appreciation of the property; (viii) the ability to improve the property's performance through renovation; and (ix) the potential for expansion of the physical layout of the property and/or the number of sites.
•
Disposition Strategy.
We continually evaluate local market conditions and property-related factors across all of our markets to identify assets suitable for disposition. Our focus is on selling properties with lower rent growth potential or that lack optimal functionality. The capital from these sales is generally reinvested into new assets identified, consistent with our investment strategy discussed above or otherwise used in a manner consistent with our business strategy.
•
Financing Strategy.
To finance acquisitions, developments and debt maturities, as market conditions permit, we may utilize a portion of proceeds from property sales, unsecured debt offerings, term loans, mortgage financings and line of credit borrowings under our $750.0 million unsecured revolving credit agreement (the "Unsecured Credit Facility"), and proceeds from the issuance, when and as warranted, of additional equity securities. We also evaluate joint venture arrangements as another source of capital to finance acquisitions and developments as well as manage investment exposure and allocation. As of February 13, 2025, we had approximately $480.5 million available for additional borrowings under the Unsecured Credit Facility.
5
Competition
In connection with the acquisition of industrial properties and land for development, we compete with other public industrial property sector REITs, income-oriented non-traded REITs, private real estate funds and other real estate investors and developers, some of which have greater financial resources or other competitive advantages. Such competition may increase acquisition prices or cause us to forgo an investment in a property that would otherwise meet our investment criteria. Additionally, we face significant competition in leasing available properties to prospective tenants and in renewing leases to existing tenants. As a result, we may need to offer rent concessions, incur tenant improvement expenses or provide other inducements to enable us to timely lease vacant space, all of which may have an adverse impact on our results of operations.
Government Regulation
We are subject to laws and regulations of the United States and the states and local municipalities in which we operate, including laws and regulations relating to environmental protection and human health and safety. Compliance with these laws and regulations has not had, and is not expected to have, a material effect on our capital expenditures, results of operations and competitive position as compared to prior periods.
Corporate Responsibility and Governance
We are focused on building and maintaining a socially responsible and sustainable business that delivers long-term value to our stockholders. We foster a culture of sustainability throughout our operations aligned with our long-term objectives, which includes consideration of ways to minimize environmental impact, both ours and that of our tenants. We have an established committee (the "Corporate Responsibility Committee") composed of team members from diverse functions within the Company. The Corporate Responsibility Committee advises senior management, the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors on key matters related to sustainability, social responsibility and other non-financial issues that are significant to us and our stockholders.
Given that we primarily operate under net lease arrangements where tenants are ultimately responsible for maintaining the leased properties, one of our primary corporate responsibility priorities is to engage with and encourage our tenants to implement environmentally sustainable practices, such as the use of energy and water efficient fixtures and recycling programs. Additionally, when acquiring new properties or enhancing existing facilities, we place a strong emphasis on environmental sustainability. Many of our recent development projects have achieved LEED certification, and we are actively pursuing LEED certification for all upcoming development projects through a LEED volume program. We extend the same commitment to environmental excellence to our own offices, promoting sustainable practices and energy efficiency that can both reduce environmental impact and achieve lower operating costs. Our headquarters office in Chicago is an energy-efficient LEED-certified building.
Social responsibility is integral to our business strategy. We strive to develop and maintain strong relationships with our customers, business partners, investors, and the communities in which we operate and invest.
Our corporate governance efforts are led by our Board of Directors, who are elected by our stockholders to oversee the long-term financial strength and overall success of the Company, exercising its members' business judgment using their collective experience, knowledge and skills. Directors fulfill their responsibilities as members of the Board of Directors consistent with their fiduciary duty to our stockholders, in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. The Board of Directors provides advice and counsel to the Chief Executive Officer and other senior officers of the Company, ensuring that the Company's assets are properly safeguarded, robust financial and operational controls are maintained, and that the Company's business is conducted wisely and in compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
6
Human Capital
We believe our human capital resources are well-aligned to successfully operate our business and create long-term value for our shareholders. As of December 31, 2024, we had 151 employees, 150 of whom are full-time employees. The average tenure of our workforce is approximately 12 years.
We are an equal opportunity employer and, as such, promote an equitable workplace that acknowledges and values differences in race, gender, age, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, abilities and religious beliefs. We apply these policies throughout our organization, including at the senior management level and in our composition of our Board of Directors. We believe such diversity of experience and background helps make us strong and achieve our mission to create long-term shareholder value by providing industrial real estate solutions that mutually benefit our customers and our stockholders. Our Board of Directors is comprised of 43% directors who identify as female, people of color or both.
In managing our business, we focus on attracting and retaining employees by providing compensation and benefits packages that are competitive within the applicable market, taking into account the skills required, responsibilities and geographic location. All employees are eligible to participate in one of our incentive plans, under which payments are tied to pre-established performance goals. In addition, we endeavor to develop each of our employees’ skillsets and decision-making abilities through challenging project assignments, formal training, mentorship and recognition. Taken together, these efforts promote higher levels of satisfaction and employee retention, while creating an enhanced leadership pipeline.

| Item 1A. | Risk Factors | ||||
Our operations involve various risks that could adversely affect our business, including our financial condition, our results of operations, our cash flow, our liquidity, our ability to make distributions to our stockholders and unitholders, the market price of the Company's common stock and the market value of the Units. These risks, among others contained in our other filings with the SEC, include:
Risks Related to our Business:
Real estate investments fluctuate in value depending on conditions in the general economy and the real estate industry. These conditions may limit our revenues and available cash.
The factors that affect the value of our real estate and the revenues we derive from our properties include, among other things:
•
general economic conditions;
•
local, regional, national and international economic conditions and other events and occurrences that affect the markets in which we own properties;
•
local conditions such as oversupply or a reduction in demand;
•
increasing labor and material costs;
•
the ability to collect on a timely basis all rents from tenants;
•
changes in tenant operations, real estate needs and credit;
•
changes in interest rates and in the availability, cost and terms of financing;
•
zoning or other legislative and regulatory restrictions;
•
competition from other available real estate;
•
operating costs, including maintenance, insurance premiums and real estate taxes; and
•
other factors that are beyond our control.
Our investments in real estate assets are concentrated in the industrial sector, and the demand for industrial space in the United States is related to the level of economic output. Accordingly, reduced economic output may lead to lower occupancy rates for our properties. In addition, if any of our tenants experiences a downturn in its business that weakens its financial condition, delays lease commencement, fails to make rental payments when due, becomes insolvent or declares bankruptcy, the result could be a termination of the tenant's lease, which could adversely affect our cash flow from operations. These factors may be amplified by a disruption of financial markets or more general economic conditions.
General economic conditions and other events or occurrences that affect areas in which our properties are geographically concentrated may impact financial results.
We are exposed to the economic conditions and other events and occurrences in the local, regional and national geographies in which we own properties. We are also impacted by global events and occurrences. Our operating performance is further impacted by the economic conditions of the specific markets in which we have concentrations of properties.
At December 31, 2024, operating properties located in California (Northern California and Southern California markets) and Pennsylvania, our two largest regions, represented 25.6% and 11.4%, respectively, of our consolidated net operating income for the year ended December 31, 2024. The revenues generated from, and the value of, these properties are subject to local real estate conditions, such as oversupply or reduced demand for industrial properties, as well as the local economic climate. Factors like business layoffs, industry slowdowns, demographics shifts and other economic changes may adversely impact the economies of California and Pennsylvania. Given our significant investments in these states, any economic downturn in the economy or unfavorable changes in the real estate market dynamics, including changes to state income tax and property tax laws, could adversely affect our business.
Additionally, we own properties situated in and around ports, making them susceptible to fluctuations in trade activity. Changes and/or anticipated changes in tariffs, trade policies, labor disruptions and other economic factors could reduce tenant demand for storage of imported goods in our facilities. This may lead to higher market vacancies, downward pressure on rental rates and potential declines in property value.
Our operating performance could be adversely affected if market conditions deteriorate in any of the markets in which we have a concentration of properties. Factors such as an oversupply of logistics space or a reduction in demand for such space, among other factors, may negatively impact operating conditions. Any material oversupply of logistics space or material reduction in demand for logistics space could adversely affect our overall business.
8
International trade disputes, including U.S. trade tariffs and retaliatory tariffs, could adversely impact our business.
International trade disputes, including threatened or implemented tariffs imposed by the U.S. and threatened or implemented tariffs imposed by foreign countries in retaliation or otherwise, could adversely impact our business. Many of our tenants sell imported goods and tariffs or other trade restrictions could increase costs for these tenants. To the extent our tenants are unable to pass these costs on to their customers, our tenants could be adversely impacted. In addition, international trade disputes, including those related to tariffs, could result in inflationary pressures that directly impact our costs, such as construction materials applicable to our development and redevelopment projects. Trade disputes could also adversely impact global supply chains which could further increase costs for us and our tenants or delay delivery of key inventories and supplies.
Many real estate costs are fixed, even if income from properties decreases.
Our financial results depend on leasing space to tenants on terms favorable to us. Our income and funds available for distribution to our stockholders and unitholders will decrease if a significant number of our tenants cannot pay their rent or we are unable to lease properties on favorable terms. In addition, if a tenant defaults on its rent payments or declares bankruptcy, we may face delays in enforcing our rights as a landlord and incur substantial legal costs. Costs associated with real property, such as real estate taxes and maintenance, generally are not reduced when income from the property declines. Tenant bankruptcies can further exacerbate these challenges by limiting our remedies and potentially resulting in the rejection of leases, negatively affecting our financial results.
We may be unable to renew leases or find other tenants on advantageous terms or at all.
We are subject to the risk that expiring leases may not be renewed, or the spaces subject to such leases may not be relet or the terms of renewal or reletting, including the cost of required renovations, may be less favorable than the expiring lease terms. If we are unable to promptly renew a significant number of expiring leases or to relet the spaces at competitive rental rates, our financial condition, results of operation, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our stockholders and unitholders could be adversely affected. Furthermore, such challenges could negatively impact the market price of the Company's common stock and the market value of the Units.
We may be unable to acquire real estate on advantageous terms or acquisitions may not perform as we expect.
As part of our investment strategy, we routinely acquire real estate from third parties and we intend to continue to do so. However, the acquisition of properties entails various risks, including risks that our investments may not perform as expected and that our cost estimates for bringing an acquired property up to market standards, if necessary, may prove inaccurate. Further, we face significant competition for attractive investment opportunities from real estate investors who may be well-capitalized or have other competitive advantages, including publicly-traded REITs and private investors. This competition increases when real estate investments are perceived as more attractive relative to other asset classes. Consequently, we may be unable to acquire additional real estate and purchase prices may increase.
Future acquisitions are expected to be funded through a combination of sources, including borrowings under the Unsecured Credit Facility, proceeds from equity or debt offerings, debt originations, and property sales. However, these funding sources may not always be available on acceptable terms or at all, which could limit our ability to pursue new opportunities.
Moreover, properties are often sold "as is," "where is," and "with all faults," without any warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular use or purpose. In addition, purchase agreements may contain only limited warranties, representations and indemnifications that will only survive for a limited period after the closing. As a result, we face heightened risk of unanticipated issues, including potential loss of invested capital or rental income from such properties.
These risks, individually or collectively, could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our stockholders and unitholders, the market price of the Company's common stock and the market value of the Units.
We may be unable to sell properties when appropriate or at all because real estate investments are not as liquid as certain other types of assets.
Real estate assets are inherently less liquid than other types of investments, which could limit our ability to adjust our property portfolio in response to changes in economic conditions or portfolio performance. This limitation could adversely affect our financial condition, ability to service debt and capacity to make distributions to our stockholders and unitholders. In addition, as a REIT, our ability to sell properties is further restricted by tax laws, including punitive taxation on asset sales that fail to meet safe harbor rules or other established criteria.
9
We may be unable to sell properties on advantageous terms.
We sell properties from time to time to third parties as market conditions warrant and we intend to continue doing so. However, our ability to sell properties on advantageous terms depends on factors beyond our control, including competition from other sellers and the availability of attractive financing for potential buyers. If we are unable to sell properties on favorable terms or to redeploy the proceeds in accordance with our business strategy, then our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our stockholders and unitholders, the market price of the Company's common stock and the market value of the Units could be adversely affected. Further, if we provide financing to purchasers as part of a sale, defaults by the purchasers could further harm our operations and financial condition.
We may be unable to complete development and re-development projects on advantageous terms.
As part of our business, we develop new properties and re-develop existing properties, both of which carry significant risks, including:
•
we may not be able to obtain financing for these projects on favorable terms;
•
we may have delays in obtaining construction materials or rising material costs (including as a result of the imposition of tariffs) may occur;
•
we may not complete construction on schedule or within budget;
•
we may not be able to obtain, or may experience delays in obtaining necessary zoning, land-use, building, occupancy and other governmental permits and authorizations;
•
contractor and subcontractor disputes, strikes, lack of available labor, labor disputes or supply chain disruptions may occur;
•
contractor, subcontractor and design professionals may cause damage, design errors or other negligent actions with respect to our properties; and
•
properties may perform below anticipated levels, producing cash flow below budgeted amounts, which could lead to unprofitable investments or limit our ability to sell such properties.
To the extent these risks result in increased debt service expense, construction costs and delays in budgeted leasing, they could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our stockholders and unitholders, the market price of the Company's common stock and the market value of the Units.
We may incur unanticipated costs and liabilities due to environmental problems.
Under various federal, state and local laws and regulations, we may, as a current or previous owner, developer or operator of real estate, be liable for the costs of cleaning up hazardous or toxic materials found on, in or emanating from a property as well as for any related damages to natural resources. These laws and regulations often impose liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of hazardous or toxic materials. The presence of such materials, or the failure to address those conditions properly, may adversely affect our ability to rent or sell a property or use it as collateral for a financing. In addition, we may be held liable for clean-up costs or natural resource damages stemming from hazardous materials disposed or treated at off-site facilities, even if the facility is not owned or operated by us. No assurance can be given that existing environmental assessments with respect to any of our properties have identified all environmental liabilities, that prior owners or operators did not create unknown material environmental conditions, or that such conditions will not arise in the future. Moreover, we cannot predict whether (i) changes to environmental laws and regulations will not result in material environmental liability; or (ii) our properties will be affected by nearby activities, such as underground storage tanks leaks, or by unrelated third parties.
At acquisition, all of our properties are subject to a Phase I or similar environmental assessment conducted by an independent consultant. These assessments are intended to discover and evaluate information regarding the environmental condition of the surveyed property and surrounding areas but typically do not include soil sampling, subsurface investigation, remediation or asbestos surveys. While some assessments have led to further investigation and sampling, none have identified material environmental liabilities that we believe would adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations taken as a whole. However, we cannot give any assurance that such conditions do not exist or may not arise in the future.
Environmental laws and regulations in the U.S. also impose obligations on building owners or operators regarding asbestos management. These include requirements for proper handling, disclosure, and abatement during renovation or demolition, as well as penalties for non-compliance. Third parties may also seek recovery for asbestos-related injuries. Some of our properties may contain asbestos-containing building materials.
10
We maintain a portfolio environmental insurance policy to address certain unknown environmental liabilities, but coverage is subject to policy terms, conditions and limitations. Renewal of this policy may not be guaranteed, and coverage may be insufficient to fully mitigate potential losses. From time to time, we may acquire properties or interests in properties, with known adverse environmental conditions where we believe that the environmental liabilities are quantifiable and the acquisition will yield a superior risk-adjusted return. In such an instance, we underwrite the costs of environmental investigation, clean-up and monitoring into the cost. Additionally, in property dispositions, we may agree to retain responsibility for certain environmental conditions, including costs associated with monitoring and/or remediating such conditions.
We may incur significant costs complying with various federal, state and local laws and regulations that are applicable to our properties.
We may incur significant costs complying with various federal, state and local laws and regulations that are applicable to our properties including, without limitation, those related to zoning, zoning moratoria, the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (the "ADA"), fire and safety regulations, and greenhouse gas emissions. We may be required to make substantial improvements or capital expenditures, or implement operational changes, to comply with applicable laws and regulations, and we may not be able to effectively pass on these additional costs to our tenants. Noncompliance with these laws and regulations could result in the imposition of fines or the award of damages or attorneys’ fees to private litigants. Any such laws or regulations could also impose substantial costs on our tenants, potentially impacting their financial condition and ability to meet lease obligations, which could impact leasing or re-leasing our properties. There can be no assurance that existing laws and regulatory policies will not adversely affect us or the timing or cost of any future acquisitions or renovations, or that additional laws or regulation will not be adopted that increase such delays or result in additional costs. If we incur substantial costs to comply with applicable laws or regulations, our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow, our ability to satisfy debt service obligations and to make distributions to our stockholders and unitholders, the market price of the Company's common stock and the market value of the Units could be adversely affected.
Adverse market and economic conditions could result in impairment charges.
We regularly review our real estate assets for impairment indicators, such as declines in occupancy rates, deteriorating market conditions or changes in the anticipated hold period of an asset. If we determine that indicators of impairment are present, we review the affected properties to determine whether an impairment charge is required. As a result, we may be required to recognize asset impairment, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. We use considerable judgment in making determinations about impairments, from analyzing whether there are indicators of impairment, to the assumptions used in calculating the fair value of the investment. Accordingly, our subjective estimates and evaluations may not be accurate, and such estimates and evaluations are subject to change or revision.
We could be subject to risks and liabilities in connection with joint venture arrangements.
Our organizational documents do not limit the amount of funds that we may invest in joint ventures. We currently have and may in the future selectively acquire, own and/or develop properties through joint ventures with other parties when circumstances warrant. However, joint venture investments involve risks not present where we act alone, including: (i) joint venture partners may have shared approval rights over major decisions, which might significantly delay or make impossible actions and decisions we believe are necessary or advisable with respect to properties owned through a joint venture, and/or adversely affect our ability to develop, finance, lease or sell properties owned through a joint venture at the most advantageous time for us, if at all; (ii) joint venture partners might experience financial distress and fail to fund their share of any required capital contributions; (iii) joint venture partners may have economic or other business goals that are competitive or inconsistent with ours that would affect our ability to develop, finance, lease, operate, manage or sell any joint venture properties; (iv) joint venture partners may have the power to act contrary to our policies or objectives, including those necessary to maintain the Company's qualification as a REIT; (v) joint venture agreements often restrict the transfer of interests or may otherwise restrict our ability to sell our interest when we would like to or on advantageous terms; (vi) disputes with joint venture partners may result in costly litigation or arbitration that would increase our expenses and prevent our employees, officers and directors from focusing their time and effort on our business and subject the properties owned by the applicable joint venture to additional risk; and (vii) we may in certain circumstances be held liable for the actions or decisions of our joint venture partners.
The occurrence of one or more of these events could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our stockholders and unitholders, the market price of the Company's common stock and the market value of the Units.
11
We own certain properties subject to ground leases that expose us to risks.
For certain of our properties, we own the building and other improvements but have leased the underlying land pursuant to a long-term ground lease. These arrangements expose us to unique risks, including the potential loss of our interest in the properties if we breach the terms of the ground leases, fail to renew them, or if they are otherwise terminated. As the ground lease termination dates approach, the values of the properties could decline if extensions or renewals are not secured. Additionally, certain ground leases include annual payment escalations and/or periodic fair market value adjustments which could increase our lease obligations over time. These factors may adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations or ability to generate income from these properties.
We are exposed to the impacts of climate change.
We are subject to the physical and financial impacts of climate change, particularly due to our significant investment in properties located in coastal markets, including Southern California, Northern California, Houston and South Florida. These areas are also targeted markets for future growth. Properties in these regions are vulnerable to catastrophic weather events, such as severe storms, drought, earthquakes, floods, wildfires or other extreme weather conditions. An increase in the frequency or severity of such events could heighten our exposure to these risks, potentially disrupting our tenants' operations and impairing their ability to pay rent. Furthermore, the effects of climate change may adversely affect our ability to lease, develop or sell properties or to use them as collateral for financings. We maintain comprehensive insurance coverage to mitigate casualty risks, in amounts and of a kind that we believe are appropriate for the markets where each of our properties and their business operations are located. However, as climate change risks intensify, there is no assurance that insurance companies will continue to offer sufficient coverage or do so at commercially reasonable rates. A lack of adequate insurance or significant increases in premiums could materially affect our financial performance and operations.
Our insurance coverage does not include all potential losses.
Real property is subject to casualty risk including damage, destruction, or loss caused by events that are unusual, sudden and unexpected. Some of our properties are located in areas where casualty risk is higher due to hurricane, earthquake, wind, wildfire and/or flood risk. We carry comprehensive insurance coverage to mitigate our casualty risk, in amounts and of a kind that we believe are appropriate for the markets where each of our properties and their business operations are located. Among other coverage, we carry property, boiler and machinery, general liability, cyber liability, fire, flood, terrorism, earthquake, windstorm, owner's protective professional indemnity and rental loss insurance. Our coverage includes policy specifications and limits customarily carried for similar properties and business activities. However, our insurance coverage does not insure the total replacement cost of the portfolio. We evaluate our insurance limits and deductibles using analysis and modeling, as is customary in our industry. However, we do not insure against all types of casualty, and we may not fully insure against certain perils including, earthquake, windstorm, flood, pandemic, war, civil unrest and cyber risk, either because coverage is not available or because we do not deem it to be economically feasible or prudent to do so. Furthermore, we cannot be sure that insurance companies will continue to offer products with sufficient coverage at commercially reasonable rates. This could occur due to an uninsured or high deductible loss, a loss in excess of insured limits, or a loss not paid due to insurer insolvency. Such events could cause us to experience a significant loss of capital or revenues, and be exposed to obligations under recourse debt associated with a property. These risks could materially and adversely impact our financial condition, results of operations, and ability to meet our obligations.
12
Financing and Capital Risks:
Disruptions in the financial markets could affect our ability to obtain financing and may negatively impact our liquidity, financial condition and operating results.
A significant portion of our existing indebtedness was issued through capital markets transactions, and we expect to rely on the capital markets to refinance this indebtedness in the future. However, volatility or disruption in these markets could limit our access to refinancing options. Periodic dislocations, price volatility, and liquidity disruptions in the capital and credit markets, both domestically and internationally, can materially impact market conditions, making financing terms less attractive, and in some cases, entirely unavailable. These challenges could also increase borrowing costs and limit our ability to refinance existing debt on favorable terms. Price volatility in the capital and credit markets could also make the valuation of our properties more difficult. There may be significant uncertainty in the valuation, or in the stability of the value, of our properties that could result in a substantial decrease in the value of our properties. As a result, we may not be able to recover the carrying amount of our properties, which may require us to recognize an impairment loss in earnings
.
Additionally, adverse events in the banking or financial services sections could directly or indirectly affect our liquidity. Events such as defaults, non-performance or limited liquidity at banks or financial institutions that hold our funds, or broader concerns affecting financial institutions, could expose us to risk. While we actively manage our relationships with financial institutions, we cannot guarantee that disruptions will not occur. Additionally, if any of our tenants or other parties with whom we conduct business are unable to access funds from their bank or financial institutions, such parties’ ability to pay their obligations to us could be adversely affected.
Furthermore, our access to liquidity under our Unsecured Credit Facility depends on the continued performance of the participating lenders. If one or more lenders default on their commitments, our ability to borrow under this facility could be restricted. A lack of access to debt or equity securities or to borrow under our Unsecured Credit Facility were to be impaired by volatility in or disruption of the capital markets, it could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and financial condition.
Debt financing, the degree of leverage and rising interest rates could reduce our cash flow.
We use debt to increase the returns to our stockholders and unitholders and to support investments that would otherwise be beyond our immediate financial capacity. However, this use of leverage presents additional risks, particularly if cash flow from our properties is insufficient to cover both debt payment obligations and the distribution requirements of the REIT provisions of the Code. In addition, increased interest rates would reduce our cash flow by increasing the amount of interest due on our floating rate debt and on our fixed rate debt as it matures and is refinanced. Our organizational documents do not contain any limitation on the amount or percentage of indebtedness we may incur.
Covenants in our debt agreements could limit our flexibility and adversely affect our financial condition.
The terms of our agreements governing our indebtedness require that we comply with a number of financial and other covenants, such as maintaining debt service coverage and leverage ratios and maintaining insurance coverage. Complying with such covenants may limit our operational flexibility. A failure to comply with these covenants, even if we have satisfied our payment obligations, could result in a default under the applicable debt agreement. Consistent with our historical practice, we will continue to interpret and certify our performance under these covenants in a good faith manner that we deem reasonable and appropriate. However, these financial covenants are complex and there can be no assurance that these provisions would not be interpreted by the noteholders or lenders in a manner that could impose and cause us to incur material costs. Our ability to meet our financial covenants may be adversely affected if economic and credit market conditions limit our ability to reduce our debt levels consistent with, or result in net operating income below, our current expectations. Under our Unsecured Credit Facility and our unsecured term loans, an event of default can also occur if the lenders, in their good faith judgment, determine that a material adverse change has occurred that could prevent timely repayment or materially impair our ability to perform our obligations under the loan agreement.
13
In the event of default, we would be subject to higher finance costs and fees, and the lenders under our Unsecured Credit Facility would not be required to provide additional funding. In addition, our indebtedness, together with accrued and unpaid interest and fees, could be accelerated and declared immediately due and payable. Furthermore, our Unsecured Credit Facility, unsecured term loans and the indentures governing our senior unsecured notes contain cross-default provisions that may be triggered in the event that our other material indebtedness is in default. These cross-default provisions may require us to repay or restructure our Unsecured Credit Facility, our unsecured term loans or our senior unsecured notes (which includes our private placement notes), depending on which is in default, and such restructuring could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our stockholders and unitholders, the market price of the Company's common stock and the market value of the Units. If repayment of any of our indebtedness is accelerated, we cannot provide assurance that we would be able to borrow sufficient funds to refinance such indebtedness or that we would be able to sell sufficient assets to repay such indebtedness. Even if new financing is available, it may not be on commercially reasonable or acceptable terms.
Adverse changes in our credit ratings could negatively impact our liquidity and business operations.
Our credit ratings, including those assigned to our senior unsecured notes, are based on various factors, such as our operating performance, liquidity and leverage ratios, overall financial position and other criteria utilized by the credit rating agencies in their analyses. These ratings can influence the availability, terms and pricing of any indebtedness we may incur, as well as preferred stock offerings we may issue going forward. There is no assurance that we will be able to maintain any credit rating and, in the event any credit rating is downgraded, or the perception that a downgrade is imminent, we could incur higher borrowing costs or may be unable to access certain or any capital markets.
The REIT distribution requirements may limit our ability to retain capital and require us to turn to external financing sources.
As a REIT, the Company must distribute at least 90% of its taxable income (determined without regard to the dividends-paid deduction and by excluding any net capital gain) to its stockholders annually, and we may be subject to additional tax to the extent our taxable income is not fully distributed. The Company could, in certain instances, have taxable income without sufficient cash to enable it to meet this requirement. In that situation, we could be required to borrow funds or sell properties on adverse terms in order to satisfy the distribution requirement.
The distribution requirement could also limit our ability to accumulate capital to provide capital resources for our ongoing business, and to satisfy our debt repayment obligations and other liquidity needs, we may be more dependent on outside sources of financing, such as debt financing or issuances of additional capital stock, which may or may not be available on favorable terms. Additional debt financings may substantially increase our leverage and additional equity offerings may result in substantial dilution of stockholders' and unitholders' interests.
We may have to make lump-sum payments on our existing indebtedness.
We are required to make lump-sum or "balloon" payments under the terms of some of our indebtedness. Our ability to make required payments of principal on outstanding indebtedness, whether at maturity or otherwise, may depend on our ability to refinance the applicable indebtedness or to sell properties. Currently, we have no commitments to refinance any of our indebtedness.
Failure to hedge effectively against interest rate changes may adversely affect our results of operations.
In the normal course of business, we use derivatives to manage our exposure to interest rate volatility associated with our debt issuances, anticipated future debt issuances and variable rate borrowings. At times we may also use derivatives to increase our exposure to floating interest rates. There can be no assurance that these hedging arrangements will have the desired beneficial impact. These arrangements, which can include a number of counterparties, may expose us to additional risks, including failure of any of our counterparties to perform under these contracts, and may involve extensive costs, such as transaction fees or breakage costs, if we terminate them. Hedging may reduce the overall returns on our investments, which could reduce our cash available for distribution to our stockholders and unitholders. Failure to hedge effectively against interest rate changes may materially and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flow. No strategy can completely insulate us from the risks associated with interest rate fluctuations.
To manage these risks, our Board of Directors oversees our use of derivative financial instruments. Our practice is to use derivatives solely to fix interest rates on anticipated debt offerings and manage variable rate borrowings, avoiding speculative or trading purposes. We intend to enter into contracts only with major financial institutions based on their creditworthiness, but these practices could change at the discretion of the Board of Directors in the future.
14
Our mortgages may impact our ability to sell encumbered properties on advantageous terms or at all.
Our outstanding mortgage agreement contains, and some future mortgage agreements may contain, substantial prepayment premiums that we could reduce the net proceeds from the sale of the encumbered property. As a result, our willingness to sell certain properties and the price at which we may desire to sell a property may be impacted. If we are unable to sell properties on favorable terms or redeploy the sales proceeds in line with our business strategy, our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our stockholders and unitholders, the market price of the Company's common stock and the market value of the Units could be adversely affected.
Earnings and cash dividends, asset value and market interest rates affect the price of the Company's common stock.
The market value of the Company's common stock is influenced by the Company's earnings, cash dividends, the market value its underlying real estate assets and market interest rates. For this reason, shares of the Company's common stock may trade at prices higher or lower than the Company's net asset value per share. To the extent that the Company retains operating cash flow for investment purposes, working capital reserves, or other purposes, these retained funds, while increasing the value of the Company's underlying assets, may not correspondingly increase the market price of its common stock. Additionally, the failure to meet market's expectations for earnings growth or dividends/distributions likely would adversely affect the market price of the Company's common stock. Further, the distribution yield on the common stock (as a percentage of the price of the common stock) relative to market interest rates may also influence the market price of the Company's common stock. An increase in market interest rates might lead investors to expect a higher distribution yield, which would adversely affect the market price of the Company's common stock. Any reduction in the market price of the Company's common stock would, in turn, reduce the market value of the Units.
Future sales or issuances of our common stock may cause the market price of our common stock to decline.
The sale of substantial amounts of our common stock, whether directly by us or in the secondary market, or the perception that such sales may occur, could materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Similarly, the availability of future issuances of common stock, Limited Partnership Units or other securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock, could also depress the market price of our common stock. In addition, we may in the future issue capital stock senior to our common stock for various reasons, including to finance our operations and business strategy, to adjust our ratio of debt to equity or other strategic reasons. Such issuances could further impact the market price of our common stock and our ability to raise capital through common stock or other offerings.
The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly.
The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly in response to many factors, including:
•
actual
or anticipated variations in our operating results, funds from operations, cash flows or liquidity;
•
changes in our earnings estimates or those of analysts;
•
changes in asset valuations and related impairment charges;
•
changes to our dividend policy;
•
research reports about us or the real estate industry generally;
•
the ability of our tenants to meet rent obligations and our ability to re-lease space as leases expire;
•
increases in market interest rates, which may lead investors to demand a higher dividend yield;
•
changes in market valuations of similar companies;
•
adverse market reaction to our debt levels, upcoming debt maturities, refinancing plans or anticipated debt incurrences;
•
our ability to comply with financial covenants under our unsecured line of credit and the indentures under which our senior unsecured indebtedness is, or may be, issued;
•
additions or departures of key management personnel;
•
actions by institutional stockholders;
•
speculation in the media or investment community; and
•
general market and economic conditions.
These factors, many of which outside our control, could cause the market price of our common stock to decline significantly, regardless of our financial condition, results of operations and future prospects. We cannot provide any assurance that the market price of our common stock will remain stable or not fall in the future, and it may be difficult for holders to resell shares of our common stock at prices they find attractive, or at all.
15
Risks Related to Our Organization and Structure:
The Company's ability to issue preferred stock could adversely affect holders of the Company's common stock.
Our declaration of trust authorizes the Company to issue up to 225,000,000 common shares and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Subject to approval by the Company's Board of Directors, the Company may issue preferred stock with rights, preferences and privileges that are more beneficial than those of common stock. Holders of the Company's common stock do not have preemptive rights to acquire shares issued in the future. If the Company ever issues preferred stock with a distribution preference over common stock, funds available for the payment of distributions to our common stockholders and unitholders would be reduced. In addition, holders of preferred stock are normally entitled to receive a preference payment in the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up, which would reduce the amount available to our common stockholders and unitholders. Furthermore, under certain circumstances, the issuance of preferred stock may delay or prevent a change in control of the Company, potentially limiting the ability of common stockholders to benefit from such a transaction.
The Company's Board of Directors may change its strategies, policies or procedures without stockholder approval, which may subject us to different and more significant risks in the future.
Our investment, financing, leverage and distribution policies and our policies with respect to all other activities, including growth, debt, capitalization and operations, are determined by the Company's Board of Directors. These policies may be amended or revised at the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors at any time and without notice to or a vote of its stockholders. Such changes could result in us conducting operational matters or making investments differently or pursuing alternate business or growth strategies, potentially exposing ourselves to new and more significant risks. In addition, the Company's Board of Directors may change its governance policies, provided that such changes comply with applicable legal requirements. A change in these policies could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow, ability to satisfy our principal and interest obligations, ability to make distributions to our stockholders and unitholders, the market price of the Company's common stock and the market value of the Units
.
Certain provisions of our charter and bylaws could hinder, delay or prevent a change in control of our company.
Certain provisions of our charter and our bylaws could have the effect of discouraging, delaying or preventing transactions that involve an actual or threatened change in control of our company. These provisions include the following:
•
Removal of Directors. Under our charter, a director may be removed only for cause and only by the affirmative vote of at least a majority of all votes entitled to be cast by our stockholders generally in the election of directors, subject to the rights of any preferred stockholders to elect directors,
•
Preferred Stock. Under our charter, our board of directors has the power to issue preferred stock in one or more series, with terms, preferences and rights determined by the board of directors, all without approval of our stockholders.
•
Advance Notice Bylaws. Our bylaws require stockholders to follow advance notice procedures with respect to nominations of directors and shareholder proposals.
•
Ownership Limit. For the purpose, among others, of preserving our status as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code, our charter generally prohibits any single stockholder or group of affiliated stockholders from beneficially owning more than 9.8% of our outstanding common and preferred stock unless our board of directors waives or modifies this ownership limit.
•
Stockholder Action by Written Consent. Our bylaws permit stockholders actions by written consent in lieu of an annual or special meeting of stockholders only if all stockholders consent to such action.
•
Ability of Stockholders to Call Special Meeting. Under our bylaws, we are only required to call a special meeting at the request of the stockholders if the request is made by at least a majority of all votes entitled to be cast by our stockholders generally in the election of directors.
•
Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act. While our bylaws currently exempt acquisitions of our shares from the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act, the board of directors may amend our bylaws to repeal or modify this exemption. If repealed, control shares acquired in a control share acquisition will be subject to the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act.
16
Income Tax Risks:
The Company might fail to qualify as a REIT under existing laws and/or federal income tax laws could change.
The Company intends to operate in a manner that qualifies as a REIT under the Code and believes it is currently organized and operated in compliance with REIT requirements. However, maintaining REIT qualification requires ongoing compliance with numerous highly technical and complex Code provisions, some of which depend on various factual matters and circumstances not entirely within our control.
If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it would be subject to federal income tax at corporate rates. This could result in a discontinuation or substantial reduction in distributions to our stockholders and unitholders and could reduce the cash available for debt repayment or to make further investments in real estate. Unless entitled to statutory relief, the Company would be disqualified from electing REIT status for the four taxable years following the year of disqualification.
The IRS, the United States Treasury Department and Congress frequently review federal income tax legislation, and we cannot predict whether, when or to what extent new federal laws, regulations, and administrative interpretations or rulings will be adopted. Additional changes to tax laws are likely to continue to occur in the future and any such legislative action may prospectively or retroactively modify the Company's tax treatment and therefore, may adversely affect taxation of us and/or our stockholders and unitholders. Any such changes could have an adverse effect on an investment in shares of our common stock or on the market value or the resale potential of our properties. Stockholders and unitholders are urged to consult with their own tax advisor with respect to the impact of recent legislation, the status of legislative, regulatory, or administrative developments and proposals, and their potential effect on ownership of our shares.
Certain property transfers may generate prohibited transaction income, resulting in a penalty tax on the gain attributable to the transaction.
As part of our business, we sell properties to third parties as opportunities arise. However, under the Code, a 100% penalty tax could be assessed on the taxable gain recognized from sales of properties that are deemed to be prohibited transactions. The question of what constitutes a prohibited transaction is based on the facts and circumstances surrounding each transaction. The IRS could contend that certain sales of properties by us are prohibited transactions. While we implement controls to avoid prohibited transactions, if a dispute were to arise that was successfully argued by the IRS, the 100% penalty tax could be assessed against the Company's profits from these transactions, which could materially and adversely impact our financial results.
Even if we maintain our qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we may be subject to other tax liabilities that reduce our cash flow and our ability to make distributions to stockholders.
Although we intend to maintain our qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we may still be subject to federal, state and local taxes on our income and property. Changes in state and local tax laws and regulations, or increases in tax rates may result in an increase in our tax liabilities over time. Additionally, fiscal challenges faced by states and municipalities in which we operate may lead to an increase in the frequency and amount of such increase, which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, our TRSs are subject to federal, state and local income tax on their earnings, which could reduce the funds available for distribution to our stockholders and unitholders.
In the normal course of business, certain of our legal entities have been and may continue to be subject to tax audits. There can be no assurance that future audits will not occur with increased frequency or that the ultimate result of such audits will not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

General Risk Factors:
A future contagious disease outbreak or pandemic may adversely affect our business.
A future contagious disease outbreak or pandemic could cause disruptions to regional and global economies and significant volatility and negative pressure in the financial markets. The adverse effects on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could include: (i) reduced economic activity which may severely impact our tenants' businesses and may cause certain of our tenants to be unable to meet their obligations to us in full, or at all, attempt to terminate early or non-renew of their leases or otherwise seek modifications of their obligations to us; (ii) delays to or halting of construction activities, including permitting and obtaining approvals, related to our ongoing development, redevelopment and tenant improvements projects; (iii) difficulty in accessing the capital and lending markets (or a significant increase in the costs of doing so), impacts to our credit ratings, a severe disruption or instability in the global financial markets, or deterioration in credit and financing conditions, which may affect our access to capital necessary to fund business operations or address maturing debt obligations on a timely basis; (iv) potential impact on our ability to meet the financial covenants of our Unsecured Credit Facility and other debt agreements, which may result in a default or an acceleration of indebtedness, and such non-compliance could negatively impact our ability to make additional borrowings under our Unsecured Credit Facility and pay dividends; (v) any impairment in value of our tangible or intangible assets which could be recorded as a result of weaker economic conditions; (vi) a general decline in business activity and demand for real estate transactions, which could adversely affect our ability to sell or purchase properties, at attractive pricing or at all; (vii) an inability to initiate or pursue litigation due to various court closures, increased case volume and/or moratoriums on certain types of activities; (viii) the potential negative impact on the health of our employees, particularly if a significant number of them are impacted, which could result in a deterioration in our ability to ensure business continuity during the disruption and which may negatively impact our disclosure controls and procedures over financial reporting; and (ix) extended remote work arrangements for our employees could strain our business continuity plans and introduce operational inefficiencies risk including, but not limited to, cybersecurity risks.
We face risks relating to cybersecurity attacks and other disruptions to our computer systems.
We rely extensively on computer systems to manage our business, and our business is at risk from and may be impacted by cybersecurity attacks, data breaches and other system disruptions. These risks could include attempts to gain unauthorized access to our computer systems, data and the data of third parties retained within our systems through malware, computer viruses, attachments to e-mails, persons inside our Company or persons with access to systems inside our Company, and other significant disruptions of our information technology networks and related systems. Our business is also at risk from and may be impacted by our computer systems malfunctioning or being subject of a significant disruption.
The risk of a cybersecurity breach or disruption, particularly through a cyber-incident, including by computer hackers, foreign governments and cyber terrorists, has generally increased as the number, intensity and sophistication of attempted attacks and intrusions from around the world have increased. Although we employ a number of measures to prevent, detect and mitigate these threats, even the most well-protected information, networks, systems and facilities remain potentially vulnerable because the techniques and tools (including artificial intelligence) used in such attempted security breaches evolve and generally are not recognized until launched against a target and, in some cases, are designed to not be detected and, in fact, may not be detected. Accordingly, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate security barriers or other preventative measures, and thus it is impossible for us to entirely mitigate this risk.
Moreover, our risk exposure extends beyond our internal systems. Cybersecurity events or disruptions impacting our vendors, sub-processors and service providers could impact our data and operations or the data of third parties retained within our system via unauthorized access to information or disruption of services.
Our computer systems are essential to our day-to-day operations and, in some cases, may be critical to the operations of certain of our tenants. A successful cybersecurity attack or system disruption could have severe consequences, including: (i) disrupt the proper functioning of our networks and systems, and therefore our operations and/or those of certain of our tenants; (ii) result in the unauthorized access to, and destruction, loss, theft, misappropriation or release of proprietary, confidential, sensitive or otherwise valuable information of ours or others, which others could use to compete against us or for disruptive, destructive or otherwise harmful purposes and outcomes; (iii) result in misstated financial reports, violations of loan covenants or missed reporting deadlines; (iv) result in our inability to properly monitor our compliance with the rules and regulations regarding our qualification as a REIT; (v) divert significant management resources to remedy any damages and restore systems; (vi) subject us to claims for breach of contract, damages, credits, penalties or termination of leases or other agreements; (vii) subject us to legal liability or regulatory actions stemming from data breaches or disruptions; or (viii) damage our reputation among our tenants, investors and stakeholders.
18
While we continuously work to strengthen our defenses, the evolving nature of cyber threats makes it impossible to entirely eliminate this risk. A successful cybersecurity attack or disruption could materially and adversely affect our business, financial performance, and reputation.
We may become subject to litigation.
We may become subject to litigation, including claims relating to our operations, offerings, and other activity in the ordinary course of business. Some of these claims may result in significant defense costs and potentially significant judgments against us, some of which are not, or cannot be, insured against. Resolution of these types of matters could adversely impact our financial condition, results of operations and cash flow. Furthermore, certain litigation or their outcomes may affect the availability, terms or cost of our insurance coverage, which could adversely impact our results of operations and cash flows, expose us to increased risks that would be uninsured, and/or adversely impact our ability to attract officers and directors.
Terrorist attacks, acts of violence or war may affect the market for the Company's common stock, the industry in which we conduct our operations and our profitability.
Acts of violence, including terrorism and armed conflicts, or other destabilizing events could occur in areas where we conduct business. More generally, these events could cause consumer confidence and spending to decrease or result in increased volatility in the worldwide financial markets and economy. These events may adversely impact our operations or financial condition. In addition, losses resulting from these types of events may be uninsurable.
Deficiencies in our disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting could adversely impact our business and financial performance.
The design and effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting may not prevent all errors, misstatements or misrepresentations. While management will continue to review the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, there can be no guarantee that our internal control over financial reporting will be effective in accomplishing all control objectives all of the time. Deficiencies, including any material weakness, in such internal controls could result in misstatements of our results of operations, restatements of our financial statements, a decline in the price/value of our securities, damage to our business reputation or otherwise materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. Such outcomes could erode investor confidence and materially affect our business and financial performance. We remain committed to monitoring and improving our internal controls over financial reporting, but no system can entirely eliminate the risk of deficiencies.
We may be unable to retain and attract key management personnel.
Our success significantly depends on the expertise and contributions of key personnel including our executive officers, whose continued service is not guaranteed.
If we lose key personnel, experience changes in their roles, or face limitations on their availability, we may not be able to find replacements with comparable skill, ability and industry expertise. Until suitable replacements are identified and retained, if at all, our operating results and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

| Item 1C. | Cybersecurity | ||||
Cybersecurity risk is an important and continuously evolving focus for us, and significant resources are devoted to protecting and enhancing the security of computer systems, software, networks and our other technology assets. We have controls and systems in place to safely receive, protect and store information; collect, use, and share that information appropriately; and detect, contain and respond to data security and denial-of-service incidents.
We identify material cyber risks by continually assessing external threats to understand evolving threats, developing issues and industry trends. Cybersecurity is an important and integrated part of the Company’s enterprise risk management function that identifies, monitors and mitigates business, operational and legal risks. We view our main cyber risk areas to be attempts to gain unauthorized access to our data and computer systems and the data of third parties to which we may owe a duty of care through malware, ransomware, computer fraud, insider threat from persons inside our Company or persons with access to systems inside our Company, and other significant disruptions of our information technology networks and related systems. Our processes and controls to mitigate these cyber risks, categorized by five functional areas, Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond and Recover, are addressed below.
The first step in our process is to i
dentify
the risks related to our data, personnel, devices, systems and facilities. In connection with this phase, we do the following:
•
Perform global risk assessments which include information technology risk areas including cyber and, in conjunction with this assessment, we engage leading security and technology vendors to periodically perform specific technical information technology risk assessments;
•
Maintain a matrix that delineates roles and responsibilities for information security supporting significant financial applications, database and networks;
•
Participate in various consortiums, associations and groups to share threat intelligence and collaborate with organizations across different industries to share best practices, fight cybercrime, enhance privacy, discuss new technologies, better understand the evolving regulatory environment, and advance capabilities in these areas;
•
Conduct mandatory information security training for all employees and regularly evaluate their information security awareness and adherence to our information security recommendations; and
•
Disclose our computer usage policy on our intranet and require employees to acknowledge the policy annually.
Next, we perform certain controls and processes in order to p
rotect
against the identified risks. In connection with this phase, we do the following:
•
Maintain controls and processes over access to our networks and computer systems including: (i) approval and restriction to appropriate personnel as well as ensuring powerful privileges are restricted and segregated to select information technology employees; (ii) utilize a password manager to protect encrypted passwords of power users; (iii) disable system and physical access of terminated employees in a timely manner; (iv) utilize two-factor authentication for remote access to the network; and (v) segregate internal network through the use of internal firewalls;
•
Maintain physical security at our data center and backup recovery location including door access control system with surveillance;
•
Block data intrusion to maintain confidentiality and integrity of our data via the following: (i) capacity of our servers and networks have an automated monitoring system; (ii) patch management controls on our key software including monitoring resources for patch criticality and reported issues as well as running vulnerability scans; (iii) change logs are kept and updated on all of our key software; (iv) all major changes to hardware and infrastructure devices are performed and approved prior to production migration; (v) remote access is fully encrypted for all users; and (vi) internal firewalls are used to limit access to sensitive systems and applications; and
•
Maintain controls and processes relating to payments we make to third parties by using a combination of internal controls around the setup, maintenance and archiving of records to reduce fraud and erroneous payments.
20
We continually monitor our information system in order to d
etect
anomalous activity and verify the effectiveness of our protective measures. In connection with this phase, we do the following:
•
Run extended detection and response software on our network at all times, which is comprehensive company-wide personal computer device security monitoring and active threat remediation software that is fully supported by staff and backed by a prevention warranty;
•
Engage third-party specialists to periodically perform: (i) penetration testing, which is a simulated cyberattack against our computer system, in order to assess our ability to resist potential threats and attacks from external and internal sources; (ii) cyber dwelling, which determines if a threat actor has made its way or could make its way into our computer network and if confidential information was or could be compromised; and (iii) tabletop mock cybersecurity incident exercises to gauge our ability to react to an attack;
•
Evaluate the technical control structure and competency for all new third-party software vendors and review “cloud” third-party software vendor’s Service Organization Control reports, or reasonable substitutes, which give comfort on the maturity of the vendor’s security controls; and
•
Perform monthly mock phishing email exercises with our employees and provide additional training if needed.
We have plans in place in order to r
espond
to detected cybersecurity incidents:
•
Maintain written playbooks, which provide sequential instructions on the appropriate steps to take in the wake of various cyberattacks, including a playbook for each of the following: ransomware attack, a data breach, loss of third-party data and partial and full disaster recovery plans; and
•
Retain a leading incident response provider to assist with security incidents as well as an attorney that serves as our data breach coach who specializes in data privacy and cyber security, and has relationships with third-party forensics investigators, crisis communications professionals and other services and organization we may need if a data breach is encountered.
In order to r
ecover
systems or assets affected by a cybersecurity incident, we maintain and regularly test full backups of our business systems data. These backups are stored in multiple locations, both online and offline.
While we have not, as of the date of this Form 10-K, experienced a cybersecurity threat or incident that resulted in a material adverse impact to our business, operations or financial condition, there can be no guarantee that we will not experience such an incident in the future. See Risk Factors for more information on our cybersecurity risks.
Our cybersecurity program is overseen by a highly experienced team, including the Chief Information Officer (who reports directly to our Chief Executive Officer), our Senior Director of Information Technology, our Senior Director of Business Systems Applications and our Information Technology Security Manager. Collectively, this team has decades of expertise in information technology, and the Information Technology Security Manager holds a master's degree in Network Security. They meet regularly to discuss key cybersecurity risks and strategies, reporting to the Audit Committee annually or as necessary, in accordance with our cybersecurity incident protocols.
The Audit Committee, as delegated by our Board of Directors, is responsible for reviewing, with management, our internal control systems with respect to information technology security. The Audit Committee Chairperson also participates in our annual overall risk assessment process. In addition to the foregoing, from time to time, the Board of Directors is updated concerning the Company’s internal control systems with respect to information technology security.

General
At December 31, 2024, we owned 416 industrial properties of which 412 were classified as in-service. Of the 416 properties owned on a consolidated basis, none of them are directly owned by the Company. The 412 in-service industrial properties contained an aggregate of approximately 66.7 million square feet of GLA in 19 states, with a diverse base of approximately 900 tenants engaged in a wide variety of businesses, including e-commerce, third-party logistics and transportation, consumer and other manufactured products, retail and consumer services, food and beverage, lumber and building materials, wholesale goods, health services, governmental and other. Our in-service portfolio includes all properties that have reached stabilized occupancy (defined as properties that are 90% leased), (re)developed properties upon the earlier of reaching 90% occupancy or one year from the date construction is completed and acquired properties that are at least 75% occupied at acquisition or one year from the acquisition date, unless we anticipate tenant move-outs within two years of ownership would drop occupancy below 75%. Acquired properties with tenants that we anticipate will move out within the first two years of ownership are placed in service upon the earlier of reaching 90% occupancy or one year after move out. The average annual base rent per square foot for our in-service portfolio, calculated at December 31, 2024, was $7.89. The properties are generally located in business parks that have convenient access to interstate highways and/or rail and air transportation. We maintain insurance on our properties that we believe is adequate.
The following tables summarize, by market, certain information as of December 31, 2024, with respect to the in-service properties.

Development Activity
During the year ended December 31, 2024, we transferred seven development properties totaling approximately 2.8 million square feet of GLA to our in-service portfolio at a total estimated cost of approximately $392.0 million. Included in the estimated total cost is $17.0 million of leasing commissions. The capitalization rate for these development projects, calculated using the estimated stabilized net operating income (excluding straight-line rent adjustments) divided by the total investment in the developed property is 7.0%.

Tenant and Lease Information
We have a diverse base of approximately 900 tenants engaged in a wide variety of businesses including e-commerce, third-party logistics and transportation, consumer and other manufactured products, retail and consumer services, food and beverage, lumber and building materials, wholesale goods, health services, governmental and other. At December 31, 2024, our leases have a weighted average lease length of 7.8 years from inception and the majority provide for periodic rent increases that are either fixed or based on changes in the Consumer Price Index. Industrial tenants typically have net or semi-net leases and pay as additional rent their percentage of the property's operating costs, including the costs of common area maintenance, insurance, property taxes and utilities. As of December 31, 2024, approximately 96.2% of the GLA of our in-service properties was leased, and no single tenant or group of related tenants accounted for more than 6.5% of our rent revenues, nor did any single tenant or group of related tenants occupy more than 6.8% of the total GLA of our in-service properties.

Lease Expirations
Fundamentals for the United States industrial real estate market were balanced in 2024. Demand for new industrial space grew modestly compared to the post-COVID inventory rebuilding periods of 2021 and 2022. New industrial space was delivered throughout the year, while the volume of new construction starts slowed significantly compared to 2023 in response to the moderation of demand. In 2024, new supply outpaced incremental demand, leading to a slight increase in national vacancy levels, though they remained low overall. Market-level rental rate growth was flat to slightly positive in virtually all of the markets in which we own and operate properties. However, Southern California experienced rental rate declines after two years of extraordinary growth. Looking ahead, based on our recent experience, low levels of vacancy generally across our markets, and the 2025 forecast of a leading national research company, we expect higher average net rental rates for renewal leases on a cash basis compared to expiring rates. Similarly, for 2025, net rental rates for new leases on a cash basis on average are expected to exceed prior lease rates, driven primarily by market rent growth since the original leases were signed.

As of February 12, 2025, the Company had 249 common stockholders of record. The number of holders does not include individuals or entities who beneficially own shares but whose shares are held of record by a broker or clearing agency, but does include each such broker or clearing agency as one record holder. The Operating Partnership had 107 holders of record of Units registered with our transfer agent.
Dividends
In order to comply with the REIT requirements of the Code, the Company is generally required to make common share distributions and preferred share distributions (other than capital gain distributions) to its shareholders in amounts that together at least equal (i) the sum of (a) 90% of the Company's "REIT taxable income" computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction and net capital gains and (b) 90% of net income (after tax), if any, from foreclosure property, minus (ii) certain excess non-cash income.
Our dividend/distribution policy is determined by the Company's Board of Directors and is dependent on multiple factors, including cash flow and capital expenditure requirements, as well as ensuring that the Company meets the minimum distribution requirements set forth in the Code. The Company met the minimum distribution requirements with respect to 2024.
Holders of Units are entitled to receive distributions when, as and if declared by the Company's Board of Directors, after the priority distributions required under the Operating Partnership's partnership agreement have been made with respect to preferred partnership interests in the Operating Partnership out of any funds legally available for that purpose.
Limited Partner Units
During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Operating Partnership issued 396,400 Limited Partner Units as part of its equity compensation program, including Limited Partner Units issued in connection with dividends accrued on the underlying common stock for certain employees and directors. See Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
Subject to certain lock-up periods, holders of Limited Partner Units can redeem their Units by providing written notice to the General Partner of the Operating Partnership. Unless the General Partner imposes a redemption restriction, the redemption process must be completed within seven business days after receipt of the holder's notice. The redemption can be effectuated, as determined by the General Partner, either by exchanging the Limited Partner Units for shares of common stock of the Company on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment, or by paying cash equal to the fair market value of such shares. Historically, redemptions have been fulfilled with the issuance of the Company's common stock, and the Operating Partnership expects to continue this practice. As of December 31, 2024, if all Limited Partner Units were redeemed, the Operating Partnership could satisfy its redemption obligations by making an aggregate cash payment of approximately $182.5 million or by issuing 3,640,860 shares of the Company's common stock.

Additionally, within our Joint Venture, we fully leased an industrial building totaling approximately 0.4 million square feet of GLA to two tenants and executed a lease, which is expected to commence in the first quarter of 2025, for 48% of an industrial building totaling approximately 1.0 million square feet of GLA.
•

•
We acquired approximately 81.4 acres of land for development located in our South Florida and Southern California markets for an aggregate purchase price of $25.9 million, excluding transaction costs.
•
We placed in-service seven industrial properties totaling approximately 2.8 million square feet of GLA located in our Central/Eastern Pennsylvania, Central Florida, Northern California and Southern California markets at an estimated total cost of $392.0 million. These properties were 96% leased at December 31, 2024.
•
We commenced speculative development of seven industrial buildings totaling approximately 1.9 million square feet of GLA in our Central/Eastern Pennsylvania, Houston, Nashville and South Florida markets. These properties were 40% pre-leased at December 31, 2024.

Results of Operations
Comparison of Year Ended December 31, 2024 to Year Ended December 31, 2023
Our net income was $296.0 million and $285.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
The tables below summarize our revenues, property expenses and depreciation and other amortization by various categories for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. Same store properties are properties owned prior to January 1, 2023 and held as an in-service property through December 31, 2024 and developments and redevelopments that were placed in service prior to January 1, 2023. Properties that are at least 75% occupied at acquisition are placed in service, unless we anticipate the tenant move-outs within two years of ownership would drop occupancy below 75%. Properties that are less than 75% occupied at the date of acquisition are placed in service as they reach the earlier of 90% occupancy or one year subsequent to acquisition. Developments, redevelopments and acquired income-producing land parcels for which our ultimate intent is to redevelop or develop on the land parcel are placed in service as they reach the earlier of 90% occupancy or one year subsequent to development/redevelopment construction completion. Acquired properties with occupancy greater than 75% at acquisition, but with tenants that we anticipate will move out within two years of ownership, will be placed in service upon the earlier of reaching 90% occupancy or twelve months after move out. Properties are moved from the same store classification to the redevelopment classification when capital expenditures for a project are estimated to exceed 25% of the undepreciated gross book value of the property. Acquired properties are properties that were acquired subsequent to December 31, 2022 and held as an operating property through December 31, 2024. Sold properties are properties that were sold subsequent to December 31, 2022. Developments and redevelopments (collectively referred to as "(Re)Developments") include (re)developments that were not: a) substantially complete 12 months prior to January 1, 2023; or b) stabilized prior to January 1, 2023. Other revenues are derived from the operations of properties not placed in service under one of the categories discussed above, the operations of our maintenance company, interest income, joint venture fees and other miscellaneous revenues. Other property expenses are derived from the operations of properties not placed in service under one of the categories discussed above, the operations of our maintenance company, vacant land expenses and other miscellaneous regional expenses.
Our future financial condition and results of operations, including rental revenues, may be impacted by the future acquisition, (re)development and sale of properties. Our future revenues and expenses may vary materially from historical rates.
For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the average daily occupancy rate of our same store properties was 96.8% and 97.6%, respectively.

Property expenses include real estate taxes, repairs and maintenance, property management, utilities, insurance and other property related expenses. Property expenses from same store properties increased $8.7 million primarily due to increases in real estate tax expense and snow removal costs. Property expenses from acquired properties increased $1.0 million due to properties acquired subsequent to December 31, 2022. Property expenses from sold properties decreased $3.4 million due to properties sold subsequent to December 31, 2022. Property expenses from (re)developments increased $9.1 million primarily due to the substantial completion of developments. Property expenses from other increased $1.9 million primarily due to an increase in real estate tax expense related to land parcels, demolition costs incurred to prepare certain land sites for construction and miscellaneous expenses.
General and administrative expense increased by $3.8 million, or 10.3%, primarily driven by higher equity compensation expense which is primarily due to the accelerated recognition of expense for certain tenured employees who are, or will soon become, retirement eligible prior to the standard vesting schedule. Additionally, the increase was influenced by a modest increase in overall compensation and a slight decrease in the amount of compensation capitalized to development activities.
Joint Venture development services expense, representing payments made to a third party for property development assistance within the Joint Venture, decreased by $2.1 million, or 58.3%. This decrease is primarily attributable to a reduction in development activities by our Joint Venture during the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to the year ended December 31, 2023.

Depreciation and other amortization from sold properties decreased $2.5 million due to properties sold subsequent to December 31, 2022. Depreciation and other amortization from (re)developments increased $10.5 million primarily due to an increase in depreciation and amortization related to completed developments. Depreciation from corporate furniture, fixtures and equipment and other remained relatively unchanged.
For the year ended December 31, 2024, we recognized $112.0 million of gain on sale of real estate related to the sale of 22 industrial properties comprising approximately 1.2 million square feet of GLA. For the year ended December 31, 2023, we recognized $95.7 million of gain on sale of real estate related to the sale of 11 industrial properties comprising approximately 1.0 million square feet of GLA and two land parcels.
Interest expense increased $8.6 million, or 11.6%, primarily due to a $5.5 million reduction in capitalized interest during the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. Additionally, the increase in interest expense was influenced by a higher weighted average debt balance of $2,220.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, up from $2,175.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, as well as an increase in the weighted average interest rate to 4.11% for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to 4.05% for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Amortization of debt issuance costs remained relatively unchanged.
Equity in income of joint venture for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $4.3 million representing our pro-rata share of the net income generated by the Joint Venture. This income is derived from rental operations and expenses related to three industrial properties, totaling 1.8 million square feet of GLA, that were completed by the joint venture during this period. In comparison, equity in income of joint venture for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $32.2 million. This higher amount included our pro-rata share of gain from the sale of real estate by the Joint Venture and related incentive fees. Both periods include the 6% interest held by our partner in the Joint Venture, which is consolidated and reported in our financial statements.
Income tax expense decreased $2.6 million, or 30.1%, primarily due to a reduction in our pro-rata share of taxable gain and incentive fees from the Joint Venture. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in income tax expense associated with gains from the sale of real estate.

Comparison of Year Ended December 31, 2023 to Year Ended December 31, 2022
A discussion of changes in our results of operations between 2023 and 2022 can be found in "Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Comparison of Year Ended December 31, 2023 to Year Ended December 31, 2022" of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.
Critical Accounting Policies
A critical accounting policy is one that involves an estimate or assumption that is subjective and requires management judgment about the effect of a matter that is inherently uncertain and material to an entity's financial condition and results of operations. Of the significant accounting policies discussed in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, we believe the following policies relate to the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements:
•
Acquisitions of Real Estate Assets:
We allocate the purchase price of acquired real estate, including real estate acquired as a portfolio, based upon the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which generally consists of land, buildings, tenant improvements, construction in progress, leasing commissions and deferred lease intangible assets and liabilities. The purchase price is allocated to the fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property by valuing the property as if it were vacant. This valuation incorporates significant assumptions such as land comparables, discount rates, terminal capitalization rates and market rent assumptions. Above and below market lease intangibles are valued based on the present value of the difference between prevailing market rental rates and the in-place rental rates measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above market leases or the remaining term of the lease plus the term of any below market fixed rate renewal options for below market leases. The purchase price is further allocated to in-place lease values based on an estimate of the lease revenue expected during a reasonable lease-up period, assuming the property was vacant on the date of acquisition.
•
Impairment of Real Estate Assets:
We review the carrying value of our long-lived real estate assets for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The judgments regarding the existence of indicators of impairment are based on the operating performance, market conditions, and our intent and ability to hold each property. The judgments regarding whether the carrying amounts of these assets may not be recoverable are based on estimates of future undiscounted cash flows from properties which include estimates of future operating performance and market conditions. If any real estate investment is considered permanently impaired, a loss is recorded to reduce the carrying value of the property to its estimated fair value. The impairment assessment and fair value measurement requires the use of estimates and assumptions, including the timing and amounts of cash flow projections, discount rates and terminal capitalization rates.

Changes in cash flow for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to the prior year are described as follows:
Operating Activities:
Cash provided by operating activities increased $47.7 million, primarily due to the following:
•
increase in net operating income from same store properties, acquired properties and recently developed properties of $48.7 million, offset by a decrease in net operating income due to the disposition of real estate of $8.8 million; and
•
increase in accounts payable, accrued expenses, other liabilities, rents received in advance and security deposits due to timing of cash payments; offset by:
◦
decrease in distributions from our Joint Venture of $4.5 million in 2024 as compared to 2023; and
◦
increase of $8.6 million in interest expense.
Investing Activities:
Cash used in investing activities decreased $246.7 million, primarily due to the following:
•
decrease of $203.6 million related to the acquisition, development and investment in real estate attributed to fewer acquisitions and reduced expenditures for developments under construction during the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2023;
•
increase of $38.5 million in net proceeds received from the disposition of real estate in 2024 as compared to 2023; and
•
decrease of $6.6 million in contributions to the Joint Venture in 2024 as compared to 2023.
Financing Activities:
Cash used in financing activities increased $185.2 million ($185.3 million for the Operating Partnership), primarily due to the following:
•
decrease in net borrowings under our Unsecured Credit Facility of $173.0 million in 2024 as compared to 2023; and
•
increase in dividend and unit distributions of $24.1 million due to the Company increasing the dividend rate in 2024 as well as an increase in common shares and units outstanding; offset by:
◦
decrease in distributions to noncontrolling interests of $11.4 million in 2024 as compared to 2023.

Material Cash Requirements
At December 31, 2024, our cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash was approximately $51.2 million, after excluding our Joint Venture partner's share of cash and cash equivalents that we consolidate and report in our financial statements. We also had $467.5 million available for additional borrowings under our Unsecured Credit Facility as of December 31, 2024.
We have considered our short-term liquidity needs through December 31, 2025, as well as the adequacy of our estimated cash flow from operations and other expected liquidity sources to meet those needs. As of December 31, 2024, our Unsecured Credit Facility had an outstanding balance of $282.0 million, maturing on July 7, 2025, with two six-month extension options available. We are evaluating whether to extend the maturity by exercising the extension options or enter into a new facility. Additionally, we have a $300.0 million unsecured term loan maturing on August 12, 2025, with two one-year extension options. We are considering either extending the maturity by exercising the extension option or refinancing part or all of this term loan with new indebtedness. Apart from these payment obligations, we believe that our principal short-term liquidity needs include funding normal recurring expenses, property acquisitions, developments, renovations, expansions, other nonrecurring capital improvements, debt service requirements, the minimum distributions required to maintain the Company's REIT qualification under the Code and distributions approved by the Company's Board of Directors. We anticipate that these needs will be met with cash flows provided by operating activities as well as the disposition of select assets. These needs may also be met by the issuance of other debt or equity securities or borrowings under our Unsecured Credit Facility, subject to market conditions.
We expect to meet long-term (after December 31, 2025) liquidity requirements such as property acquisitions, developments, scheduled debt maturities, major renovations, expansions and other nonrecurring capital improvements through long-term unsecured and secured indebtedness, the disposition of select assets and the issuance of additional equity or debt securities, subject to market conditions.
35
We believe that we were in compliance with our financial covenants as of December 31, 2024, and we anticipate that we will be able to operate in compliance with our financial covenants in 2025. However, these financial covenants are complex and there can be no assurance that these provisions would not be interpreted by our lenders and noteholders in a manner that could impose and cause us to incur material costs and our access to borrowings on our Unsecured Credit Facility may be limited if we fail to meet any of these covenants. Total debt, exclusive of unamortized debt issuance costs and unamortized discounts, at December 31, 2024 and 2023 is detailed below.

(A)
These loans have a fixed interest rate.
(B)
The interest rate is based on SOFR, plus a 0.10% SOFR adjustment, plus a credit spread of 0.85%. We have interest rate swaps, with an aggregate notional value of $200.0 million, that effectively fix the SOFR rate that results in an all-in interest rate of 1.83% at December 31, 2024. These interest rate swaps mature in February 2026.
(C)
The interest rate is based on SOFR, plus a 0.10% SOFR adjustment, plus a credit spread of 0.84%. We have interest rate swaps, with an aggregate notional value of $425.0 million, that effectively fix the SOFR rate that results in an all-in interest rate of 3.63% at December 31, 2024. These interest rate swaps mature in September 2027.
(D)
The interest rate is based on SOFR, plus a 0.10% SOFR adjustment, plus a credit spread of 0.84%. We have interest rate swaps, with an aggregate notional value of $300.0 million, that effectively fix the SOFR rate that results in an all-in interest rate of 4.87% at December 31, 2024. These interest rate swaps mature in December 2025 ($150.0 million notional) and August 2027 ($150.0 million notional). Weighted average maturity reflected in the table above assumes we extended the maturity pursuant to two, one-year extension options, subject to certain conditions.
(E
)
The interest rate is a variable rate based on SOFR, plus a 0.10% SOFR adjustment, plus a credit spread of 0.775% and a facility fee of 15 basis points. Our balance under our Unsecured Credit Facility changes depending on our cash needs and the interest rate and facility fee are each subject to adjustment based on our leverage and investment grade rating. Weighted average maturity reflected in the table above assumes we extended the maturity pursuant to two, six-month extension options, subject to certain conditions. As of February 13, 2025, we had approximately $480.5 million available for additional borrowings under our Unsecured Credit Facility.
As of December 31, 2024, our senior unsecured notes have been assigned credit ratings from Standard & Poor's, Moody's and Fitch Ratings of BBB/Stable, Baa2/Stable and BBB/Positive, respectively. A securities rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and is subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the rating organization. In the event of a downgrade, we believe we would continue to have access to sufficient capital. However, our cost of borrowing would increase and our ability to access certain financial markets may be limited.
36
Our other material cash requirements from known contractual and other obligations as of December 31, 2024 include an estimate of remaining payments on the completion of development projects under construction for the Company of $177.5 million which includes all costs necessary to place the properties into service. In addition, the remaining estimated equity that the Company will need to contribute to complete the development projects in our Joint Venture is approximately $9.7 million. The majority of the construction costs and our proportionate share of equity contributions to the Joint Venture need to be funded in one year or less.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
At December 31, 2024, we had letters of credit and performance bonds outstanding amounting to $32.2 million in the aggregate. The letters of credit and performance bonds are not reflected as liabilities on our balance sheet. We have no other off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, results of operation or liquidity and capital resources.
Environmental
We paid approximately $0.8 million and $0.7 million during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, related to environmental expenditures. We estimate 2025 expenditures of approximately $1.9 million which has been accrued at December 31, 2024. We estimate that the aggregate expenditures which need to be expended in 2025 and beyond with regard to currently identified environmental issues will not exceed approximately $4.6 million which has been accrued at December 31, 2024.
Inflation
Inflation had a minimal impact on the operating performance of our industrial properties across our markets prior to 2021, due to relatively low inflation rates. However, inflation increased significantly in 2021 and 2022, remain elevated relative to pre-2021 levels and the future direction of inflation rates is uncertain. If inflation rates increase, this could impact our operations and financial performance. Many of our leases contain provisions designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation, including contractual rent escalations and requirements for tenants to pay their proportionate share of property operating expenses. Such expenses include common area expenses, utilities, insurance, real estate taxes, and certain capital expenditures for property maintenance. These measures help reduce our exposure to inflation-driven increases in property operating expenses. However, we remain exposed to certain non-reimbursable property operating expenses, such as costs associated with vacant premises. In addition, while some of our existing leases are below current market rental rates, we believe that lease renewals or re-leasing opportunities will allow us to adjust rental rates upward, aligning them more closely with market rates. These adjustments could offset inflationary pressures on our operating expenses. Inflation also continues to affect our development portfolio. Rising costs for materials and other costs increase the expense of property development, impacting our ability to achieve anticipated returns on these projects. With respect to our outstanding indebtedness, we periodically evaluate our exposure to interest rate fluctuations, and may continue to enter into derivatives that mitigate, but do not eliminate, the impact of interest rate changes on our Unsecured Credit Facility.
Market Risk
The following discussion about our risk-management activities includes "forward-looking statements" that involve risk and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Our business subjects us to market risk from interest rates, as described below.
Interest Rate Risk
The following analysis presents the hypothetical gain or loss in earnings, cash flows or fair value of the financial instruments and derivative instruments that are held by us at December 31, 2024 that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. While this analysis may have some use as a benchmark, it should not be viewed as a forecast.
In the normal course of business, we also face risks that are either non-financial or non-quantifiable. Such risks principally include credit risk and legal risk and are not represented in the following analysis.
37
At December 31, 2024, $1,933.2 million, or 87.3%, of our total debt, excluding unamortized debt issuance costs, was fixed rate debt, while $282.0 million, or 12.7%, was variable rate debt. At December 31, 2023, $1,933.5 million, or 86.6%, of our total debt, excluding unamortized debt issuance costs, was fixed rate debt, while $299.0 million, or 13.4%, was variable rate debt. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the fixed rate debt amounts include variable rate debt that has been effectively swapped to a fixed rate through the use of derivative instruments with an aggregate notional amount outstanding of $925.0 million that mitigate our exposure to our Unsecured Term Loans' variable interest rates, which are currently based on SOFR. The use of derivative financial instruments allows us to manage risks of increases in interest rates with respect to the effect these fluctuations would have on our earnings and cash flows. We designated all of the swaps related to our Unsecured Term Loans as cash flow hedges. Currently, we do not enter into financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes. See Material Cash Requirements for further details on the derivative instruments. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the estimated fair value of our debt was approximately $2,125.3 million and $2,135.7 million, respectively, based on our estimate of the then-current market interest rates.
For fixed rate debt, changes in interest rates generally affect the fair value of the debt, but not our earnings or cash flows. Conversely, for variable rate debt, changes in the base interest rate used to calculate the all-in interest rate generally do not impact the fair value of the debt, but would affect our future earnings and cash flows. The interest rate risk and changes in fair market value of fixed rate debt generally do not have a significant impact on us until we are required to refinance such debt. See Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of the maturity dates of our various fixed rate debt.
Our variable rate debt is subject to risk based upon prevailing market interest rates. If the SOFR rate component relevant to our variable rate debt were to have increased 10%, we estimate that our interest expense during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 would have increased by approximately $1.5 million and $1.3 million, respectively, based on our average outstanding floating-rate debt during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. Additionally, if weighted average interest rates on our weighted average fixed rate debt were to have increased by 10% due to refinancing, interest expense would have increased by approximately $7.5 million and $7.5 million during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
38
Supplemental Earnings Measure
Investors and analysts in the real estate industry commonly use funds from operations ("FFO") and net operating income ("NOI") as supplemental performance measures of an equity REIT. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time through depreciation. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry analysts and investors prefer to supplement operating results that use historical cost accounting with measures such as FFO and NOI, among others. We provide information related to FFO and same store NOI ("SS NOI") both because such industry analysts are interested in such information, and because our management believes FFO and SS NOI are important performance measures. FFO and SS NOI are factors used by management in measuring our performance, including for purposes of determining the compensation of our executive officers under our 2024 incentive compensation plan.
Neither FFO nor SS NOI should be considered as a substitute for net income, or any other measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Neither FFO nor SS NOI represents cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and neither should be considered as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity, nor is either indicative of funds available for our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions.
Funds From Operations
The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") has recognized and defined for the real estate industry a supplemental measure of REIT operating performance, FFO, that excludes historical cost depreciation, among other items, from net income determined in accordance with GAAP. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure. FFO is calculated by us in accordance with the definition adopted by the Board of Governors of NAREIT and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. In accordance with the NAREIT definition of FFO, we calculate FFO to be equal to net income available to First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc.'s common stockholders and participating securities, plus depreciation and other amortization of real estate, plus impairment of real estate, minus gain (or plus loss) on sale of real estate, adjusted for any associated income tax provision or benefits. Similar adjustments are made for our share of net income from an unconsolidated joint venture.
Management believes that the use of FFO available to common stockholders and participating securities, combined with net income (which remains the primary measure of performance), improves the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and makes comparisons of REIT operating results more meaningful. Management believes that, by excluding gains or losses related to sales of real estate assets, impairment of real estate assets and real estate asset depreciation and amortization, investors and analysts are able to identify the operating results of the long-term assets that form the core of a REIT's activity and use these operating results for assistance in comparing these operating results between periods or to those of different companies.
The following table shows a reconciliation of net income available to common stockholders and participating securities to the calculation of FFO available to common stockholders and participating securities as follows:

Same Store Net Operating Income
SS NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure that provides a measure of rental operations and, as calculated by us, that does not factor in joint venture fees, depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expense, joint venture development services expense, interest expense, equity in income and loss from joint ventures, income tax benefit and provision and gains and losses on the sale of real estate.
We define SS NOI as revenues minus property expenses such as real estate taxes, repairs and maintenance, property management, utilities, insurance and other expenses, minus the NOI of properties that are not same store properties and minus the impact of straight-line rent, the amortization of above/below market leases and lease termination fees. As so defined, SS NOI may not be comparable to same store net operating income or similar measures reported by other REITs that define same store properties or NOI differently. The major factors influencing SS NOI are occupancy levels, rental rate increases or decreases and tenant recoveries increases or decreases. Our success depends largely upon our ability to lease space and to recover the operating costs associated with those leases from our tenants.
The following table shows a reconciliation of the same store revenues and property expenses disclosed in the results of operations (and reconciled to revenues and expenses reflected on the statements of operations) to SS NOI for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc.
Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, including the related notes and financial statement schedule listed in the accompanying index (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO.
Basis for Opinions
The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Company's consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
51
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Purchase Price Allocation
As described in Notes 2 and 3 to the consolidated financial statements, upon acquisition of a property, management allocates the purchase price of the property based upon the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which generally consists of land, buildings, tenant improvements, construction in progress, leasing commissions and lease intangibles including in-place lease assets and above market and below market lease assets and liabilities. The purchase price is allocated to the fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property by valuing the property as if it were vacant. The determination of fair value for tangible assets includes the use of significant assumptions such as land comparables, discount rates, terminal capitalization rates and market rent assumptions. The Company completed industrial property acquisitions for total consideration of $44.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2024.
The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to purchase price allocation
is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when determining the fair value estimate of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management's significant assumptions related to land comparables, discount rates, terminal capitalization rates, and market rental rates; and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.
Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to the purchase price allocations, including controls over management's valuation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. These procedures also included, among others, (i) reading the purchase and sales agreements and (ii) testing management’s process for determining the fair value of land and building and improvements/construction in progress, (iii) testing the completeness and accuracy of the data used in the fair value estimates, (iv) evaluating the appropriateness of the valuation methods and (v) evaluating the reasonableness of significant assumptions related to land comparables, discount rates, terminal capitalization rates, and market rent. Evaluating management's assumptions relating to the land comparables, discount rates, terminal capitalization rates, and market rent involved evaluating whether the assumptions used by management were reasonable considering the consistency with external market data and comparable transactions.
Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge were used to assist in obtaining audit evidence over land comparables.

Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of First Industrial, L.P. and its subsidiaries (the "Operating Partnership") as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive income, of changes in partners' capital and of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, including the related notes and financial statement schedule listed in the accompanying index (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). We also have audited the Operating Partnership's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in

FIRST INDUSTRIAL REALTY TRUST, INC. AND FIRST INDUSTRIAL, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Dollars in thousands, except per share and Unit data)
1.
Organization
First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc. (the "Company") is a self-administered and fully integrated real estate company which owns, manages, acquires, sells, develops and redevelops industrial real estate. The Company is a Maryland corporation organized on August 10, 1993 and a real estate investment trust ("REIT") as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"). Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, the terms "we," "our" and "us" refer to the Company and its subsidiaries, including its operating partnership, First Industrial, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership"), and its consolidated subsidiaries.
We began operations on July 1, 1994. The Company's operations are conducted primarily through the Operating Partnership, of which the Company is the sole general partner (the "General Partner"), with an approximate
97.3
% and
97.5
% ownership interest ("General Partner Units") at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Operating Partnership also conducts operations through several other limited partnerships (the "Other Real Estate Partnerships"), numerous limited liability companies ("LLCs") and certain taxable REIT subsidiaries ("TRSs"), the operating data of which, together with that of the Operating Partnership, is consolidated with that of the Company as presented herein. The Operating Partnership holds at least a
99
% limited partnership interest in each of the Other Real Estate Partnerships. The general partners of the Other Real Estate Partnerships are separate corporations, wholly-owned by the Company, each with at least a
.01
% general partnership interest in the Other Real Estate Partnerships. The Company does not have any significant assets or liabilities other than its investment in the Operating Partnership and its
100
% ownership interest in the general partners of the Other Real Estate Partnerships. The Company's noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership of approximately
2.7
% and
2.5
% at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, represents the aggregate partnership interest held by the limited partners thereof ("Limited Partner Units" and together with the General Partner Units, the "Units"). The limited partners of the Operating Partnership are persons or entities who contributed their direct or indirect interests in properties to the Operating Partnership in exchange for common Limited Partner Units of the Operating Partnership and/or recipients of RLP Units of the Operating Partnership (see Note 6) pursuant to the Company's stock incentive plan.
Through a wholly-owned TRS of the Operating Partnership, we own an equity interest in a joint venture (the "Joint Venture"). We also provide various services to the Joint Venture. The Joint Venture is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The operating data of the Joint Venture is not consolidated with that of the Company or the Operating Partnership as presented herein. See Note 5 for more information related to the Joint Venture.
Profits, losses and distributions of the Operating Partnership, the LLCs, the Other Real Estate Partnerships, the TRSs and the Joint Venture are allocated to the general partner and the limited partners, the members or the shareholders, as applicable, of such entities in accordance with the provisions contained within their respective organizational documents.
As of December 31, 2024, we owned
416
industrial properties located in
19
states, containing an aggregate of approximately
67.5
million square feet of gross leasable area ("GLA").
Of the
416
properties owned on a consolidated basis, none of them are directly owned by the Company.
Any references to the number of industrial properties and square footage in the financial statement footnotes are unaudited.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2024 and 2023 and for each of the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 include the accounts and operating results of the Company and the Operating Partnership. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
In order to conform with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), in preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for each of the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include all cash and liquid investments with an initial maturity of
three months or less
. The carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short term maturity of these investments. We maintain cash and cash equivalents in banking institutions that may exceed amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. We have not realized any losses of such cash investments or accounts and mitigate risk by using nationally recognized banking institutions.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash includes cash held in escrow in connection with gross proceeds from the sales of certain industrial properties. These sales proceeds will be disbursed as we exchange into properties under Section 1031 of the Code or will be returned to us after the mandatory time period has expired. The carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short term maturity of these investments. For purposes of our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, changes in restricted cash are aggregated with cash and cash equivalents.
Investment in Real Estate and Depreciation
Investment in real estate is carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. We review our properties on a quarterly basis for potential impairment and record a provision if impairments are identified. To determine if an impairment may exist, we review our properties and identify those that have had either an event of change or event of circumstances warranting further assessment of recoverability (such as a decrease in occupancy, a decline in general market conditions or a change in the expected hold period of an asset or asset group). The judgments regarding the existence of indicators of impairment are based on the operating performance, market conditions, as well as our ability to hold and our intent with regard to each property. If further assessment of recoverability is needed, we estimate the future net cash flows expected to result from the use of the property and its eventual disposition. Estimated future net cash flows are based on estimates of future operating performance and market conditions. If the sum of the expected future net cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) is less than the carrying amount of the property or group of properties, we will recognize an impairment loss equal to the amount in which carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the property or group of properties. The assessment of fair value requires the use of estimates and assumptions relating to the timing and amounts of cash flow projections, discount rates and terminal capitalization rates.
We classify properties and related assets and liabilities as held for sale when the sale of an asset has been approved by management, a legally enforceable contract has been executed and the buyer's due diligence period, if any, has expired. Once classified as held for sale, the respective assets and liabilities are presented separately on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Depreciation ceases and the properties are valued at the lower of depreciated cost or fair value, less costs to dispose.
Interest costs, real estate taxes, compensation costs of development personnel and other directly related costs incurred during construction periods are capitalized to development projects from the point we begin undergoing activity necessary to get the development ready for its intended use. Interest is capitalized based on the weighted average borrowing rate during the construction period. Upon substantial completion, we reclassify construction in progress to building and tenant improvements and commence depreciation.
68
Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method based on the following useful lives:
| Years | |||||
| Buildings and Improvements |
|
||||
| Land Improvements |
|
||||
| Furniture, Fixtures and Equipment |
|
||||
| Tenant Improvements | Shorter of Useful Life or Terms of Related Lease | ||||
Construction expenditures for tenant improvements, leasehold improvements and leasing commissions (inclusive of incentive compensation costs of personnel directly attributable to executed leases) are capitalized and amortized over the terms of each specific lease. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense when incurred. Expenditures for improvements are capitalized.
Upon acquisition of a property, we allocate the purchase price of the property based upon the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which generally consists of land, buildings, tenant improvements, construction in progress, leasing commissions and lease intangibles including in-place lease assets and above market and below market lease assets and liabilities. We allocate the purchase price to the fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property by valuing the property as if it were vacant. The determination of fair value includes the use of significant assumptions such as land comparables, discount rates, terminal capitalization rates and market rent assumptions. Acquired above and below market lease intangibles are valued based on the present value of the difference between prevailing market rental rates and the in-place rental rates measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above market leases or the remaining term of the lease plus the term of any below market fixed rate renewal options for below market leases. The value of above and below market lease intangibles, which are included as assets or liabilities in the line items
Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets, Net
or
Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities
on the Consolidated Balance Sheets are amortized as an increase or decrease to rental revenue over the remaining initial lease term, plus the term of any below market fixed rate renewal options of the respective leases.
The purchase price is further allocated to in-place lease values based on an estimate of the lease revenue received during a reasonable lease-up period as if the property was vacant on the date of acquisition. The value of in-place lease intangibles, which are included in the line item
Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets, Net
on the Consolidated Balance Sheets are amortized over the remaining initial lease term (including expected renewal periods) as adjustments to depreciation and other amortization expense. If a tenant fully terminates its lease early, the unamortized portion of the tenant improvements, leasing commissions, above and below market intangibles and the in-place lease value is immediately accelerated and fully amortized on the date of the termination.
As defined by GAAP, a business is an integrated set of activities and assets that is capable of being conducted and managed for the purpose of providing a return in the form of dividends, lower costs or other economic benefits directly to investors or other owners, members or participants. Our typical acquisitions consist of properties whereby substantially all the fair value or gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single asset (land, building, construction in progress and in-place leases) and, therefore, will be accounted for as asset acquisitions, which permits the capitalization of transaction costs to the basis of the acquired property.

Debt Issuance Costs
Debt issuance costs, which include fees and costs incurred to obtain long-term financing, are amortized over the terms of the respective loans. Unamortized debt issuance costs are written-off when debt is retired before the maturity date. Debt issuance costs are presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the respective debt liability, consistent with the treatment of debt discounts, except for the debt issuance costs related to the unsecured credit facility which are included in the line item
Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets, Net
on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Investment in Joint Ventures
Investment in joint ventures represents a noncontrolling equity interest in joint venture arrangements. We have determined to account for our investment in the joint ventures under the equity method of accounting, as we do not have a majority voting interest, operational control or financial control. Control is determined using accounting standards related to the consolidation of joint ventures and variable interest entities ("VIEs"). Under the equity method of accounting, our share of earnings or losses of the joint ventures is reflected in income as earned and contributions or distributions increase or decrease our investment in joint ventures as paid or received, respectively. Differences between our carrying value of our investment in the joint ventures and our underlying equity in such joint ventures are amortized and included as an adjustment to our equity in income (loss) or recognized, either in whole or in part, during the period that real estate assets are sold from the Joint Venture.
We account for our interests in the Joint Ventures using the hypothetical liquidation at book value model. Under this method, we record our Equity in Income (Loss) of Joint Ventures based on our proportionate share of the Joint Venture's earnings based on our ownership interest, after giving effect to incentive fees which we are entitled to receive.
70
We classify distributions received from equity method investments using the cumulative earnings approach. In general, distributions received are considered returns on the investment and classified as cash inflows from operating activities. If, however, our cumulative distributions received, less distributions received in prior periods determined to be returns of investment, exceed cumulative equity in earnings recognized, the excess is considered a return of investment and is classified as cash inflows from investing activities.
Noncontrolling Interests
Limited Partner Units are reported within Partners' Capital in the Operating Partnership's balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 because they are not redeemable for cash or other assets (a) at a fixed or determinable date, (b) at the option of the Unitholder or (c) upon the occurrence of an event that is not solely within the control of the Operating Partnership. Redemption can be effectuated, as determined by the General Partner, either by exchanging the Units for shares of common stock of the Company on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment, or by paying cash equal to the fair market value of such shares.
The Operating Partnership is the only significant asset of the Company and economic, fiduciary and contractual means align the interests of the Company and the Operating Partnership. The Company's Board of Directors and officers of the Company direct the Company to act when acting in its capacity as sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. Because of this, the Operating Partnership is deemed to have effective control of the form of redemption consideration. As of December 31, 2024, all criteria were met for the Operating Partnership to control the actions or events necessary to issue the maximum number of the Company's common shares required to be delivered upon redemption of all remaining Limited Partner Units.
Through a wholly-owned TRS of the Operating Partnership, we own a
43
% interest in the Joint Venture that is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Our ownership interest in the Joint Venture is held through a partnership with a third party ("Joint Venture Partnership"). We concluded that we hold the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the Joint Venture Partnership. As a result, we consolidate the Joint Venture Partnership, which holds an aggregate
49
% interest in the Joint Venture and reflect the third-party's interest in the joint venture as Noncontrolling Interests within the financial statements of the Company and Operating Partnership. See Note 5.
Stock Based Compensation
We measure compensation cost for all stock-based awards at fair value on the date of grant and recognize compensation expense over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, generally the vesting period.
Revenue Recognition
We lease our properties to tenants under agreements that are classified as leases. We recognize, as rental income, the total minimum lease payments under the leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Generally, under the terms of our leases, the majority of property operating expenses, including real estate taxes, insurance, and other property operating expenses are recovered from our tenants and recognized as tenant recovery revenue in the same period we incur the related expenses. As the timing and straight-line pattern of transfer to the lessee for rental revenue and the associated rental recoveries are the same and our leases qualify as operating leases, we account for the present rental revenue and tenant recovery revenue as a single component under
Lease Revenue
.
We assess the collectibility of lease receivables (including future minimum rental payments) at commencement and throughout the lease term. If we conclude that collection of lease payments is not probable at lease commencement, we will recognize lease payments only as they are received. If collection of lease payments is concluded to be probable at commencement and our assessment of collectibility changes during the lease term, any difference between the revenue that would have been received under the straight-line method and the lease payments that have been collected will be recognized as a current period adjustment to
Lease Revenue
and revenue will subsequently be accounted for on a cash basis until such time that collection of future rent is deemed probable.
71
If a lease provides for tenant improvements, we determine whether we or the tenant is the owner of the tenant improvements. When we are the owner of the tenant improvements, any tenant improvements funded by the tenant are treated as lease payments which are deferred and amortized as revenue over the lease term. When the tenant is the owner of the tenant improvements, we record any tenant improvement allowance paid to tenant as a lease inducement and amortize it as a reduction of revenue over the lease term.
We recognize fees received from tenants to fully terminate their lease prior to the contractual end date on a straight-line basis from the notification date through the revised lease end date.
Property Expenses
Lessee Accounting
We are a lessee on a limited number of ground and office leases and these operating lease agreements are included within
Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets
("ROU") and
Operating Lease Liabilities
on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. We elected the practical expedient to combine our lease and related nonlease components for our lessee building leases. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Our variable lease payments consist of nonlease services related to the lease. Variable lease payments are excluded from the ROU assets and lease liabilities and are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use information available at lease commencement to estimate an appropriate incremental borrowing rate on a fully-collateralized basis to determine the present value of lease payments. ROU assets also include any future minimum lease payments made and exclude lease incentives. Many of our lessee agreements include options to extend the lease, which we do not include in our minimum lease terms unless they are reasonably certain to be exercised. Rental expense for lease payments related to operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Gain on Sale of Real Estate
Asset sales are generally recognized when control of the asset being sold is transferred to the buyer. As the assets are sold, their costs and related accumulated depreciation, if any, are derecognized with resulting gains or losses reflected in net income. Estimated future costs to be incurred by us after completion of each sale are accrued and included in the determination of the gain on sales.
When leases contain purchase options, we assess the probability that the tenant will execute the purchase option both at lease commencement or at the time the tenant communicates their intent to execute the purchase option. If we determine the execution of the purchase option is reasonably certain, we will account for the lease as a sales-type lease and derecognize the associated real estate assets on our balance sheet and record a gain or loss on sale.
Income Taxes
The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least
90
% of its adjusted taxable income to its stockholders. Management intends to continue to adhere to these requirements and to maintain the Company's REIT status. As a REIT, the Company is entitled to a tax deduction for some or all of the dividends it pays to shareholders. Accordingly, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income taxes as long as it currently distributes to shareholders an amount equal to or in excess of the Company's taxable income. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income taxes and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for four subsequent taxable years.
REIT qualification reduces, but does not eliminate, the amount of state and local taxes we pay. In addition, certain activities that we undertake may be conducted by entities which have elected to be treated as a TRS. TRSs are subject to federal, state and local income taxes. A benefit or provision has been made for federal, state and local income taxes in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.
72
In accordance with partnership taxation, each of the partners of the Operating Partnership is responsible for reporting their share of taxable income or loss.
Earnings Per Share and Earnings Per Unit ("EPS" and "EPU")
We use the two-class method of computing earnings per common share or Unit, which is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for common stock and any participating securities according to dividends declared (whether paid or unpaid) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Basic net income per common share or Unit is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders or Unitholders by the weighted average number of common shares or Units outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per common share or Unit is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders or Unitholders by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares or Units outstanding and any dilutive non-participating securities for the period.
Derivative Financial Instruments
During the normal course of business, we have used derivative instruments for the purpose of managing interest rate risk on anticipated offerings of long term debt. Receipts or payments that result from the settlement of derivative instruments used to fix the interest rate on anticipated offerings of senior unsecured notes are amortized over the life of the derivative or the life of the debt and is included in interest expense. Receipts or payments resulting from derivative instruments used to convert floating rate debt to fixed rate debt are recognized as a component of interest expense.
Fair Value
GAAP establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants. The guidance establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value based on observable and unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are based on market data obtained from independent sources. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect our assumptions of pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances. We estimate fair value using available market information and valuation methodologies we believe to be appropriate for these purposes. The fair value hierarchy consists of the following three broad levels:
•
Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date;
•
Level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices within Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability; and
•
Level 3 - unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists for the asset or liability.
Our assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to their fair value measurement. Considerable judgment and a high degree of subjectivity are involved in developing these estimates and, accordingly, they are not necessarily indicative of amounts that we would realize on disposition.
73
Segment Reporting
Management views the Company as operating within a single business segment. Our primary activities include acquiring, developing, leasing and managing industrial properties across various geographic markets within the United States. We manage our operations on a consolidated basis to assess performance and make strategic operating decisions. Although we have target markets, we do not operate individual markets independently from our overall portfolio nor do we distinguish our business or group our operations on a geographical basis for purposes of assessing overall performance. Our Chief Executive Officer serves as the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM").
The CODM uses consolidated net income as the primary measure to assess overall company performance and to allocate resources. Consolidated net income is presented in our Consolidated Financial Statements and provides a comprehensive view of the Company's financial performance, including both property and non-property financial results. The CODM reviews significant expenses associated with the Company's single operating segment, including property-related and corporate-level costs, which are presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
We do not report asset information for our single segment as it is not utilized by our CODM for assessing performance or allocating resources. Asset values for our properties are reported in our Consolidated Balance Sheets at historical cost which may not reflect current market value.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures" ("ASU 2023-07"). ASU 2023-07 requires disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within the segment measure of profit or loss. In addition, entities with a single reportable segment must now provide all disclosures required by the amendments in ASU 2023-07, as well as all existing segment disclosures required in Topic 280. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim reporting periods with fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2024. We adopted ASU 2023-07 beginning with our fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. The adoption of ASU 2023-07 did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements. Additional required disclosures related to ASU 2023-07 are included above.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures" ("ASU 2023-09"). ASU 2023-09 requires enhanced income tax disclosures, primarily through standardization and disaggregation of rate reconciliation categories and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and should be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. We are currently evaluating ASU 2023-09 to determine its impact on our disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, "Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses" ("ASU 2024-03"). ASU 2024-03 requires enhanced disclosures regarding income statement expenses, including disaggregation of significant categories such as depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, property operating expenses and employee compensation, within relevant expense captions presented in the income statement. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026. We are currently evaluating ASU 2024-03 to determine its impact on our financial statement disclosures.

Our Unsecured Credit Facility, our Unsecured Term Loans, our Private Placement Notes and the indentures governing our senior unsecured notes contain certain financial covenants, including limitations on incurrence of debt and debt service coverage. Under the Unsecured Credit Facility and the Unsecured Term Loans, an event of default can occur if the lenders, in their good faith judgment, determine that a material adverse change has occurred which could prevent timely repayment or materially impair our ability to perform our obligations under the loan agreements. We believe the Operating Partnership and the Company were in compliance with all covenants relating to the Unsecured Credit Facility, the Unsecured Term Loans, the Private Placement Notes and the indentures governing our senior unsecured notes as of December 31, 2024. However, these financial covenants are complex and there can be no assurance that these provisions would not be interpreted by our lenders and noteholders in a manner that could impose and cause us to incur material costs.
Fair Value
At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the fair value of our indebtedness was as follows:

The carrying amounts include unamortized discounts and exclude unamortized debt issuance costs.
The fair value of our mortgage loan payable was determined by discounting the future cash flows using current rates at which similar loans with comparable remaining maturities would be issued. These rates were internally estimated. The fair value of the senior unsecured notes was determined based on current rates as advised by our bankers. These rates were based upon recent trades within the same series of the senior unsecured notes, trades for senior unsecured notes with comparable maturities, trades for fixed rate unsecured notes from companies with profiles similar to ours, as well as overall economic conditions. For the Unsecured Credit Facility and the Unsecured Term Loans, the fair value was calculated by discounting future cash flows using current rates, as advised by our bankers, reflecting rates at which loans with similar terms and credit ratings would be issued, assuming no repayment before maturity. We concluded that our fair value determination for our mortgage loan payable, senior unsecured notes, Unsecured Term Loans and Unsecured Credit Facility primarily relied on Level 3 inputs.

Joint Venture
The Joint Venture was formed for the purpose of developing, leasing, operating and selling land located in the Phoenix, Arizona metropolitan area. We hold our Joint Venture interest through a consolidated partnership (the "Joint Venture Partnership") in which we hold an
88
% interest and in which a third-party partner holds the remaining
12
% interest. As we hold the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the Joint Venture Partnership, we consolidate the Joint Venture Partnership and reflect our partner's share as Noncontrolling Interest (see Note 6). The Joint Venture Partnership holds a
49
% interest in the unconsolidated Joint Venture, which we account for under the equity method of accounting. Excluding the minority interest holder's share, we own a
43
% interest in the Joint Venture. The Joint Venture Partnership is held through a wholly-owned TRS of the Operating Partnership.
Under the operating agreement for the Joint Venture, we act as the managing member and are entitled to receive fees for providing management, leasing, development, construction supervision, disposition and asset management services. In addition, the Joint Venture's operating agreement provides us the ability to earn incentive fees based on the ultimate financial performance of the Joint Venture.
During the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, we earned fees of $
3,105
, $
6,473
and $
1,717
, respectively, from the Joint Venture related to asset management, property management, leasing and development services we provided to the Joint Venture, of which we deferred recognition of $
560
, $
1,314
and $
395
, respectively, due to our economic interest in the Joint Venture. During the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, we incurred fees of $
1,529
, $
3,667
and $
909
, respectively, related to third-party development, property management and leasing services associated with the Joint Venture. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, we had a receivable from the Joint Venture of $
364
and $
138
, respectively.
79
Net income of the Joint Venture for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 was $
6,223
, $
46,664
and $
171,511
, respectively. Net income during the year ended December 31, 2024, included gain on sale of real estate of $
2,545
representing deferred gains from land sales in 2023 and 2022, which were recognized under the percentage-of-completion method as the Joint Venture completed required infrastructure work for the purchasers. Our economic share of the 2024 gain on sale was $
1,247
. Net income for 2023 included gain on sale of real estate of $
40,616
related to the sale of approximately
31
acres of land, which our economic share of the gain on sale was $
19,902
. Net income for 2022 included gain on sale of real estate of $
171,671
related to the sale of approximately
391
acres of land, which our economic share of the gain on sale was $
84,119
.
For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, we earned incentive fees of $
1,245
, $
9,369
and $
31,308
, respectively, from the Joint Venture, which are reflected in the
Equity In Income of Joint Venture
line item on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Joint Venture substantially completed development of
three
buildings totaling an aggregate
1.8
million square feet of GLA (the "Project"). During the year ended December 31, 2022, in connection with the Project, the Joint Venture entered into a construction loan with a capacity of $
149,514
with a third-party lender (the "Joint Venture Loan"). At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the balance of the Joint Venture Loan is $
131,111
and $
95,711
, respectively, excluding $
269
and $
730
, respectively, of unamortized debt issuance costs. With respect to the Joint Venture Loan, we provided a completion guarantee to the lender and our third-party joint venture partner that requires the Company to timely complete construction of the Project. Total estimated investment for the Project is approximately $
229,363
and the Joint Venture is using a third-party general contractor to develop the buildings pursuant to a guaranteed maximum price contract. We also provided a guarantee to the lender related to typical non-recourse exceptions and an environmental indemnity. It is not possible to estimate the amount of additional costs, if any, that we may incur in connection with our completion guarantees to the third-party lender and/or our joint venture partner as well as the non-recourse exception and environmental indemnity guarantees; however, we do not expect that we will be required to make any significant payments in satisfaction of these guarantees.
As part of our assessment of the appropriate accounting treatment for the Joint Venture, we reviewed the operating agreements of each Joint Venture in order to determine our rights and the rights of our joint venture partners, including whether those rights are protective or participating. Each operating agreement contains certain protective rights, such as the requirement of both members' approval to sell, finance or refinance the property and to pay capital expenditures and operating expenditures outside of the approved budget. Also, we and our Joint Venture partners jointly (i) approve the annual budget, (ii) approve certain expenditures, (iii) review and approve the Joint Venture's tax return before filing and (iv) approve each lease at a developed property. We consider the latter rights substantive participation rights that result in shared, joint power over the activities that most significantly impact the performance of each Joint Venture. As such, we concluded to account for our investments in each Joint Venture under the equity method of accounting.

Equity of the Company and Partners' Capital of the Operating Partnership
Noncontrolling Interest of the Company
The equity positions of various individuals and entities that contributed their properties to the Operating Partnership in exchange for Limited Partner Units, as well as the equity positions of the holders of Limited Partner Units issued in connection with the grant of restricted limited partner Units ("RLP Units") pursuant to the Company's stock incentive plan, are collectively referred to as the "Noncontrolling Interests." An RLP Unit is a class of limited partnership interest of the Operating Partnership that is structured as a "profits interest" for U.S. federal income tax purposes and is an award that is granted under our Stock Incentive Plan (see Note 11). Generally, RLP Units entitle the holder to receive distributions from the Operating Partnership that are equivalent to the dividends and distributions that would be made with respect to the number of shares of Common Stock underlying such RLP Units, though receipt of such distributions may be delayed or made contingent on vesting. Once an RLP Unit has vested and received allocations of book income sufficient to increase the book capital account balance associated with such RLP Unit (which will initially be zero) equal to, on a per-unit basis, the book capital account balance associated with a "common" Limited Partner Unit of the Operating Partnership, it automatically becomes a common Limited Partner Unit that is convertible by the holder to one share of Common Stock or a cash equivalent, at the Company's option. Net income is allocated to the Noncontrolling Interests based on the weighted average ownership percentage during the period.
Noncontrolling Interest - Joint Venture
Our ownership interest in the Joint Venture is held through the Joint Venture Partnership with a third party partner and we concluded that we hold the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the Joint Venture Partnership. As a result, we consolidate the Joint Venture Partnership and reflect our partner's interest in the Joint Venture Partnership that invests in the Joint Venture as a Noncontrolling Interest. For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, our partner's share of the Joint Venture Partnership's income was $
537
, $
3,949
and $
14,003
, respectively, and was reflected in the
Equity in Income of Joint Venture
and the
Net Income Attributable to the Noncontrolling Interests
line items in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the
Noncontrolling Interests
line item in the Consolidated Balance Sheets includes our third-party partner's interest of $
6,838
and $
6,444
, respectively.
Operating Partnership Units
The Operating Partnership has issued General Partner Units and Limited Partner Units. The General Partner Units resulted from capital contributions from the Company. The Limited Partner Units are issued in conjunction with the acquisition of certain properties as well as through the issuance of RLP Units. Subject to certain lock-up periods, holders of Limited Partner Units can redeem their Units by providing written notification to the General Partner. Unless the General Partner provides notice of a redemption restriction to the holder, redemption must be made within seven business days after receipt of the holder's notice. The redemption can be effectuated, as determined by the General Partner, either by exchanging the Limited Partner Units for shares of common stock of the Company on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment, or by paying cash equal to the fair market value of such shares. Prior requests for redemption have generally been fulfilled with shares of common stock of the Company, and the Operating Partnership intends to continue this practice. If each Limited Partner Unit of the Operating Partnership were redeemed as of December 31, 2024, the Operating Partnership could satisfy its redemption obligations by making an aggregate cash payment of approximately $
182,516
or by issuing
3,640,860
shares of the Company's common stock.
Preferred Stock or General Partner Preferred Units
The Company has
10,000,000
shares of preferred stock authorized. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, there were no preferred shares or general partner preferred Units outstanding.

ATM Program
On February 24, 2023, we entered into three-year distribution agreements with certain sales agents to sell up to
16,000,000
shares of the Company's common stock, for up to $
800,000
aggregate gross sales proceeds, from time to time through "at-the-market" offerings (the "ATM"). Under the terms of the ATM, sales are to be made through transactions that are deemed to be "at-the-market" offerings, including sales made directly on the New York Stock Exchange, sales made through a market maker other than on an exchange or sales made through privately negotiated transactions.
During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, we did not issue shares of the Company's common stock under the ATM Program. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we issued
218,230
shares of the Company's common stock in "at-the-market" offerings pursuant to distribution agreements that were entered into on February 14, 2020 (the "Prior ATM") and which were terminated on February 24, 2023 in connection with the ATM Program. The issuance of common stock in "at-the-market" offerings pursuant to the Prior ATM during the year ended December 31, 2022 resulted in $
12,823
of net proceeds and payment of compensation to certain sales agents of $
130

The change in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in other comprehensive income and is subsequently reclassified to earnings through interest expense over the life of the derivative or over the life of the debt. In the next 12 months, we expect to amortize approximately $
410
into net income by increasing interest expense for derivative instruments we settled in previous periods. Additionally, recurring settlement amounts on the 2021 Swaps, the 2022 Swaps and the 2022 II Swaps (all defined in Note 12) will also be reclassified to net income.

Income Taxes
Our Consolidated Financial Statements include the operations of our TRSs, which are not entitled to the dividends paid deduction and are subject to federal, state and local income taxes on its taxable income. During the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Company qualified as a REIT and incurred no federal income tax expense; accordingly, the only federal income taxes included in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements relate to activities of our TRSs.
The components of the income tax provision for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 is comprised of the following:

We evaluate tax positions taken in the financial statements on a quarterly basis under the interpretation for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. As a result of this evaluation, we may recognize a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is "more-likely-than-not" that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities. As of December 31, 2024, we do not have any unrecognized tax benefits.
We file income tax returns in the U.S. and various states. The statute of limitations for income tax returns is generally three years. As such, our tax returns that are subject to examination would be primarily from 2021 and thereafter. There were no material interest or penalties recorded for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022.
Federal Income Tax Treatment of Common Dividends

Leases
Lessee Disclosures
We are a lessee on a limited number of ground and office leases (the "Operating Leases"). Our office leases have remaining lease terms of less than
one year
to
five years
and our ground leases have remaining terms of
30
years to
45
years. For the year ended December 31, 2024, we recognized $
3,398
of operating lease expense, inclusive of short-term and variable lease costs which are not significant.
The following is a schedule of the maturities of operating lease liabilities for the next five years as of December 31, 2024, and thereafter:

A number of the Operating Leases include options to extend the lease term. For purposes of determining our lease term, we excluded periods covered by an option since it was not reasonably certain at lease commencement that we would exercise the options.
Lessor Disclosures
Our properties and certain land parcels are leased to tenants and classified as operating leases. For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, we recognized lease revenue of $

Long-Term Compensation
Equity Based Compensation
The Company maintains a stock incentive plan which is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors in which officers, certain employees and the Company's independent directors are eligible to participate (the "Stock Incentive Plan"). Among other forms of allowed awards, awards made under the Stock Incentive Plan during the three years ended December 31, 2024 have been in the form of restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, performance share awards and RLP Units (as defined in Note 6). Special provisions apply to awards granted under the Stock Incentive Plan in the event of a change in control in the Company. As of December 31, 2024, awards covering
3.6
million shares of common stock were available to be granted under the Stock Incentive Plan. Under the Stock Incentive Plan, each RLP Unit counts as one share of common stock for purposes of calculating the limit on shares that may be issued.
Awards with Performance Measures
During the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Company granted
46,947
,
44,821
, and
35,867
performance units ("Performance Units"), respectively, to certain employees. In addition, the Company granted
263,159
,
280,083
and
208,454
RLP Units, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, with the same performance-based criteria as the Performance Units ("Performance RLP Units" and, together with the Performance Units, collectively the "Performance Awards") to certain employees. A portion of each Performance Award vests based upon the total shareholder return ("TSR") of the Company's common stock compared to the TSR of the FTSE Nareit All Equity Index and the remainder vests based upon the TSR of the Company’s common stock compared to a specified group of peer industrial real estate companies. The performance period for awards issued in 2024 is three years and compensation expense is charged to earnings over the applicable vesting period for the Performance Awards. At the end of the measuring period, vested Performance Units convert into shares of common stock. The participant is also entitled to dividend equivalents for shares or RLP Units issued pursuant to vested Performance Awards. The Operating Partnership issues General Partner Units to the Company in the same amounts for vested Performance Units.
The Performance Awards issued for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, had fair value of $
9,281
, $
8,948
, and $
7,266
, respectively.
The fair values were determined by a lattice-binomial option-pricing model based on Monte Carlo simulations using the following assumptions:

Service Based Awards
During the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Company awarded
61,168
,
56,236
, and
78,482
of restricted stock units ("Service Units"), respectively, to certain employees and outside directors. In addition, for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Company awarded
102,548
,
98,342
and
57,907
RLP Units, respectively, ("Service RLP Units" and, together with the Service Units, collectively the "Service Awards") to certain employees and outside directors. The Service Awards granted to employees were based on the prior achievement of certain corporate performance goals and generally vest ratably over a period of
three years
based on continued employment. Service Awards granted to outside directors vest after
one year
. Compensation expense is charged to earnings over the vesting periods for the Service Awards. At the end of the service period, vested Service Units convert into shares of common stock. The Operating Partnership issued restricted Unit awards to the Company in the same amount for the restricted stock units.
The Service Awards issued for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 had fair value of $
8,408
, $
7,948
and $
8,032

Compensation Expense Related to Long-Term Compensation
For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, we recognized $
20,085
, $
16,673
and $
15,722
, respectively, in compensation expense related to Performance Awards and Service Awards. Performance Award and Service Award compensation expense capitalized in connection with development activities was $
2,599
, $
3,014
and $
3,605
for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. At December 31, 2024, we had $
7,385
in unrecognized compensation related to unvested Performance Awards and Service Awards. The weighted average period that the unrecognized compensation is expected to be recognized is
0.84
years.
Retirement Eligibility
All award agreements for Performance Awards and Service Awards contain a retirement eligibility policy for employees with at least 10 years of continuous service and are at least 60 years old. For employees that meet the age and service eligibility requirements, their awards are non-forfeitable.
As such,
we recognized 100% of the expenses for awards granted to retirement-eligible employees at the grant date as if fully vested. For employees who will meet the eligibility requirements during the normal vesting period, the grants are amortized over the shorter service period. Additionally, our Chief Executive Officer's former employment agreement contained a retirement provision, which provided for all of his outstanding Performance Awards and Service Awards to be non-forfeitable effective December 31, 2024. As such, his Performance Awards and Service Awards granted during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 were amortized over one year and two years, respectively, as opposed to the three-year vesting period.
401(k) Plan
Under the Company's 401(k) Plan, all eligible employees may participate by making voluntary contributions, and we may make, but are not required to make, matching contributions. For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, total expense related to matching contributions was $
1,428
, $
1,382
and $
1,314
, respectively.

Derivative Instruments
Our objectives in using derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage our cash flow volatility and exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish these objectives, we primarily use derivative instruments as part of our interest rate risk management strategy. Derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.
We have interest rate swaps to manage our exposure to changes in SOFR related to our Unsecured Term Loans. We have
three
interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional value of $
200,000
that fixed the SOFR rate component at
0.88
% for the year ended December 31, 2024 and mature on February 2, 2026 (the "2021 Swaps").
We have
eight
interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional value of $
425,000
that fix the SOFR rate component at
2.69
% and mature on September 30, 2027 (the "2022 Swaps").
We have
seven
interest rate swaps, with an aggregate notional value of $
300,000
that fix the SOFR rate component at
3.93
% (the "2022 II Swaps"). $
150,000
of the 2022 II Swaps' aggregate notional value matures on December 1, 2025 and the remaining $
150,000
of the 2022 II Swaps' aggregate notional value matures on August 1, 2027. We have designated the 2021 Swaps, the 2022 Swaps and the 2022 II Swaps as cash flow hedges.
Our agreements with our derivative counterparties contain certain cross-default provisions that may be triggered in the event that our other indebtedness is in default, subject to certain thresholds. As of December 31, 2024, we had not posted any collateral related to these agreements and were not in breach of any of the provisions of these agreements. If we had breached these agreements, we could have been required to settle our obligations under the agreements at their termination value.
The following table sets forth our financial assets and liabilities related to the 2021 Swaps, the 2022 Swaps and the 2022 II Swaps, which are included in the line items
Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets, Net or Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities
on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2024 and 2023:

There was no ineffectiveness recorded on the 2021 Swaps, the 2022 Swaps or the 2022 II Swaps during the year ended December 31, 2024. See Note 7 for more information regarding our derivatives.
90
The estimated fair value of the 2021 Swaps, the 2022 Swaps and the 2022 II Swaps was determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted fixed cash payments and the discounted expected variable cash receipts. The variable cash receipts are based on an expectation of interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves. In addition, credit valuation adjustments are incorporated in the fair value to account for potential non-performance risk, including our own non-performance risk and the respective counterparty's non-performance risk. We determined that the significant inputs used to value the 2021 Swaps, the 2022 Swaps and the 2022 II Swaps fell within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Related Party Transactions
At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Operating Partnership had receivable balances of $
9,225
and $
9,288
, respectively, from a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Additionally, see Note 5 for transactions with our joint venture.
14.
Commitments and Contingencies
In the normal course of business, we are involved in legal actions arising from the ownership of our industrial properties. In our opinion, the liabilities, if any, that may ultimately result from such legal actions are not expected to have a materially adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, operations or liquidity.
At December 31, 2024, we had outstanding letters of credit and performance bonds in the aggregate amount of $
32,152
.
In conjunction with the development of industrial properties, we have entered into agreements with general contractors for the construction of industrial properties. At December 31, 2024, we had
eight
development projects totaling approximately
2.0
million square feet of GLA under construction. The estimated total investment associated with these properties as of December 31, 2024, is approximately $
280,400
(unaudited). Of this amount, approximately $
177,500
(unaudited) remains to be funded. There can be no assurance that the actual completion cost associated with these properties will not exceed the estimated total investment.

Report of Independent Auditors
To the
Managing Member of DRI FR Glendale, LLC
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, of changes in members’ capital and of cash flows of DRI FR Glendale, LLC and its subsidiary
(the “Company”)
for the year ended December 31, 2022, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”).
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the results of operations and cash flows of the Company
for the year ended December 31, 2022 in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Other Matter
The accompanying consolidated balance sheets of DRI FR Glendale, LLC as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of changes in members’ capital and of cash flows for the years then ended are presented for purposes of complying with Rule 3-09 of SEC Regulation S-X; however, Rule 3-09 does not require the 2024 or 2023 financial statements to be audited and they are therefore not covered by this report.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAS).
Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated
Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the
audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Responsibilities of Management for the Consolidated
Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated
financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated
financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated
financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date the consolidated
financial statements are available to be issued.
Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated
Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated
financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with US GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the consolidated
financial statements.
93
In performing an audit in accordance with US GAAS, we:
•
Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
•
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.
•
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.
•
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
•
Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audit.

DRI FR GLENDALE, LLC
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2024 (NOT COVERED BY THE AUDITOR'S REPORT) AND 2023 (NOT COVERED BY AUDITOR'S REPORT)
($ in thousands)
1. Organization and Formation of Joint Venture
DRI FR Glendale, LLC (the “Joint Venture”) was organized on July 8, 2020 in the state of Delaware. The Joint Venture was formed to acquire 577 developable acres of real property located in Glendale, AZ and to thereafter own, hold for investment, develop, operate, lease, maintain and sell the property. FR Merit Glendale, LLC (“FR Merit”) holds a 49% membership interest and Diamond Camelback LLC (“Diamond”) holds the remaining 51% membership interest (each a “Member” and together, the “Members”). FR Merit is a partnership that FR Glendale, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of First Industrial, L.P. (“First Industrial”) holds an 88% partnership interest in with the remaining 12% partnership interest being held by Merit Camelback 303, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company (“Merit”). FR Merit acts as the managing Member of the Joint Venture.
The Joint Venture finances its investments by drawing on the Members’ commitments to make capital contributions or such other financing as the Members deem appropriate. The Joint Venture is managed on a day to day basis by FR Merit. Major decisions are made by the Management Committee of the Joint Venture which consists of one representative from each Member.
As of December 31, 2024, the Joint Venture owned approximately 71 acres of land and three industrial buildings totaling approximately 1.8 million square feet of gross leasable area ("GLA") (see Note 3).
Any references to acres or square footage in the financial statement footnotes are unaudited.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements at December 31, 2024 and 2023, and for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 include the accounts and operating results of the Joint Venture. The Joint Venture wholly owns DRI FR Glendale Propco One, LLC, the operating data of which is consolidated with that of the Joint Venture as presented herein. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
Managements Use of Estimates
In order to conform with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), management, in preparation of the Joint Venture’s financial statements, is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include all cash and liquid investments with an initial maturity of three months or less. The carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short term maturity of these investments. The Joint Venture maintains cash and cash equivalents in banking institutions that may exceed amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. There have been no realized losses of such cash investments or accounts.
Investment in Real Estate and Depreciation
Investment in real estate is carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization.
The Joint Venture reviews its long-lived assets for potential impairment whenever an event or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. If further assessment of recoverability is needed, the Joint Venture will estimate the future net cash flows expected to result from the use of the property and its eventual disposition. Estimated future net cash flows are based on estimates of future operating performance and market conditions. If the sum of the expected future net cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) is less than the carrying amount of the property or group of properties, the Joint Venture will recognize an impairment loss equal to the amount in which the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the property or group of properties. The assessment of fair value requires the use of
99
estimates and assumptions relating to the timing and amounts of cash flow projections, discount rates and termination capitalization rates.
Interest expense, real estate taxes, and other directly related costs incurred during construction periods are capitalized to a development project from the point the Joint Venture begins undergoing necessary activities to get the development ready for its intended use and ceases when a development project is substantially completed and held available for occupancy. Upon substantial completion, the Joint Venture reclassifies construction in progress to building and tenant improvements and will start depreciating the asset based on the estimated useful life.
Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method based on the following useful lives:
| Years | |||||
| Buildings and Improvements | 40 | ||||
| Tenant Improvements | Shorter of Useful Life or Terms of Related Lease | ||||
Construction expenditures for tenant improvements, leasehold improvements and leasing commissions, inclusive of related party coordination fees, are capitalized and amortized over the terms of each specific lease. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense when incurred.
The Joint Venture classifies certain properties and related assets and liabilities as held for sale when the sale of an asset has been approved by the Members, a legally enforceable contract has been executed and the buyer's due diligence period, if any, has expired. At such time, the respective assets and liabilities are presented separately on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Upon held for sale classification, depreciation ceases and the properties are reflected at the lower of depreciated cost or fair value, less costs to dispose.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair values of prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable and other accrued expenses and due to related party were not materially different from their carrying or contract values due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments. The Joint Venture has concluded that its determination of fair value for these financial instruments was primarily based on level 2 inputs. See Note 4 for the fair value of the construction loan.
Debt Issuance Costs
Debt issuance costs, which include fees and costs incurred to obtain long-term financing, are amortized over the term of the construction loan and are presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the construction loan liability.
Revenue Recognition
The Joint Venture leases properties to tenants under agreements that are classified as leases. Rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line method under which contractual rent increases are recognized evenly over the lease term. Generally, under the terms of the leases, a majority of property operating expenses, including real estate taxes, insurance and other property operating expenses are recovered from tenants and recognized as tenant recovery revenue in the same period that the expenses are incurred. As the timing and straight-line pattern of transfer to the lessee for rental revenue and the associated rental recoveries are the same and as the leases qualify as operating leases, the Joint Venture accounts for the present rental revenue and tenant recovery revenue as a single component under
Lease Revenue
.
The Joint Venture assesses the collectability of lease receivables (including future minimum rental payments) at commencement and throughout the lease term. If the Joint Venture concludes that collection of lease payments is not probable at lease commencement, lease payments will be recognized as they are received or on a straight-line basis, whichever is lower. If collection of lease payments is concluded to be probable at commencement and the assessment of collectability changes during the lease term, any difference between the revenue that would have been received under the straight-line method and the lease payments that have been collected will be recognized as a current period adjustment to
Lease Revenue
and revenue will subsequently be accounted for on a cash basis until such time that collection of future rent is deemed probable.
If a lease provides for tenant improvements, the Joint Venture determines whether the Joint Venture or the tenant is the owner of the tenant improvements. When the Joint Venture is the owner of the tenant improvements, any tenant improvements funded by the tenant are treated as lease payments which are deferred and amortized as revenue over the lease term. When the tenant is the owner of the tenant improvements, the Joint Venture will record any tenant improvement allowance funded as a lease inducement and amortize it as a reduction of revenue over the lease term.
100
Property Expenses
Property expenses include real estate taxes, utilities, repairs and maintenance, property insurance as well as other costs of managing properties in the Joint Venture. The Joint Venture excludes from property expenses certain lessor costs, such as real estate taxes, that the Joint Venture contractually requires the tenant to pay directly to a third party on the Joint Venture’s behalf. The amounts paid directly to third parties by tenants for lessor costs are also excluded from lease revenues.
Gain on Sale of Real Estate
Asset sales are generally recognized when control of the asset being sold is transferred to the buyer. As the assets are sold, their costs and related accumulated depreciation, if any, are derecognized with resulting gains or losses reflected in net income. Estimated future costs to be incurred by the Joint Venture after completion of each sale are accrued and included in the determination of the gain on sales.
When leases contain purchase options, the Joint Venture will assess the probability that the tenant will execute the purchase option both at lease commencement or at the time the tenant communicates their intent to execute the purchase option. If the Joint Venture determines that the execution of the purchase option is reasonably certain, the Joint Venture will account for the lease as a sales-type lease and derecognize the associated real estate assets on the Joint Venture’s balance sheet and record a gain or loss on sale.
Income Taxes
In accordance with limited liability company taxation, each of the Members is responsible for reporting their share of taxable income or loss. Accordingly, no provision has been made in the financial statements for federal or state income taxes.
The Joint Venture files a federal tax return as well as a state return. The statute of limitations for income taxes is generally three years. As such, the Joint Venture’s tax returns for the 2024, 2023 and 2022 tax years are subject to examination.
3. Investment in Real Estate
On August 14, 2020, the Joint Venture acquired approximately 575 developable acres of land for a purchase price of $70,530, excluding closing costs and on March 24, 2021, the Joint Venture acquired approximately two additional developable acres of land for a purchase price of $370, excluding closing costs. The Joint Venture accounted for the land parcels as asset acquisitions and therefore capitalized transaction costs to the land bases.
On June 30, 2022, the Joint Venture sold 358 developable acres of land to a third party. Gross proceeds from the sale were $255,287 and the gain on sale of real estate was $171,671. On March 30, 2023, the Joint Venture sold 31 developable acres of land to a third party. Gross proceeds from the sale were $50,000 and the gain on sale of real estate was $40,616.
Gains on real estate sales during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 exclude amounts deferred until required infrastructure work for the purchasers is completed. These deferred gains are recognized into income based on the percentage-of-completion method. Gain on sale of real estate for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 includes $2,545 and $561, respectively, from previously deferred gains due to completion of infrastructure work. At December 31, 2024, the deferred gain related to the outstanding infrastructure work was $784. See Note 8.
During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Joint Venture substantially completed construction of three industrial buildings totaling an aggregate 1.8 million square feet of GLA.
4. Indebtedness
On July 29, 2022, the Joint Venture entered into a construction loan with a borrowing capacity of $149,514. The loan matures on July 29, 2025, and includes two one-year extension options, subject to meeting certain financial conditions. The Joint Venture anticipates utilizing one or both of the extension options to extend the maturity date. The construction loan bears interest at a variable rate of SOFR plus 3%, with interest-only payments required through the maturity date and the first extension term. During the second extension term, the construction loan requires both principal and interest payments.
At December 31, 2024 and 2023 the gross outstanding balance of the construction loan was $131,111 and $95,711, respectively, net of unamortized debt issuance costs of $269 and $730, respectively, as presented on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of the construction loan at December 31, 2024 and 2023 was $130,924 and $95,358, respectively, and was determined by discounting future cash flows using rates provided by a banking institution, reflecting the terms at which a comparable construction loan would be issued to borrowers with similar credit ratings and comparable remaining term,
101
assuming no repayment until maturity. The Joint Venture has concluded that its fair value determination for the construction loan primarily relied upon level 3 inputs.
The Joint Venture believes it is in compliance with all covenants related to the construction loan as of December 31, 2024.
5. Members’ Equity
Capital Contributions
The Members are required to make capital contributions in accordance with their ownership percentages from time to time as required by the Joint Venture’s LLC agreement.
Distributions and Allocations of Profits and Losses
Distributions of operating cash flow and capital event proceeds are to be distributed to the Members in proportion to their ownership percentages, except to the extent an incentive fee is earned by FR Merit (see Note 7).
Operating profits and losses are allocated between the Members in proportion to their ownership percentages, except to the extent an incentive fee is earned by FR Merit (see Note 7).
6. Leases
The Joint Venture has properties and a land parcel that are leased to tenants and classified as operating leases. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 the Joint Venture recognized lease revenue of $12,415 and $4,907, respectively, including variable lease payments of $425 and $0, respectively. Variable lease payments primarily consist of tenant reimbursements of property operating expenses. Future minimum rental receipts, excluding variable payments, under non-cancelable operating leases that commenced prior to December 31, 2024 are approximately as follows:
| 2025 | $ | 9,065 | |||
| 2026 | 7,961 | ||||
| 2027 | 8,245 | ||||
| 2028 | 8,538 | ||||
| 2029 | 7,369 | ||||
| Thereafter | 22,824 | ||||
| Total | $ | 64,002 | |||
The properties owned by the Joint Venture are leased to tenants under operating leases that include options to extend the lease term. For purposes of determining the lease term and lease classification, these extension periods were excluded as it was not reasonably certain at lease commencement that the options would be exercised. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the purchase option included in the operating lease of 71 acres of land was not executed by the tenant and expired.
7. Related Party Transactions
The Joint Venture paid certain fees to a subsidiary of First Industrial or FR Merit.
•
A subsidiary of First Industrial is entitled to receive an asset management fee. The asset management fee is paid quarterly in arrears and is based on a percentage of the sum of all member capital contributions, net of any return of capital distributions, and the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the borrowed indebtedness of the Joint Venture, if any, as of the date of calculation. For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the subsidiary of First Industrial earned asset management fees totaling $585, $331 and $166, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, asset management fees totaling $322, $331 and $166, respectively, were capitalized in Construction in Progress in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
•
A subsidiary of First Industrial is entitled to receive development fees, which fees are based on a percentage of all hard and soft costs incurred. For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the subsidiary of First Industrial earned development fees totaling $2,112, $5,859 and $1,600, respectively, which are capitalized in Construction in Progress in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
102
•
A subsidiary of First Industrial is entitled to receive leasing coordination fees, which fees are based on a percentage of the market leasing fee of any listing broker.
For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the subsidiary of First Industrial earned leasing coordination fees totaling $238 and $219, respectively.
•
A subsidiary of First Industrial is entitled to receive property management fees, which fees are based on a percentage gross monthly income. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the subsidiary of First Industrial earned property management fees totaling $170 and $64, respectively.
•
FR Merit is entitled to receive an incentive fee if, based on a percentage of operating cash flow and capital event proceeds to be distributed to the Members, meet certain IRR hurdles. For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Joint Venture distributions to FR Merit included $0, $0 and $29,913, respectively, of incentive fees related to capital event proceeds. The Joint Venture uses the hypothetical liquidation at book value ("HLBV") model to calculate the amount of incentive fees earned by FR Merit, in excess of incentive fees distributed from capital event proceeds. For the years ended, December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, additional incentive fees of $1,245, $9,369 and $1,395, respectively, were earned by FR Merit based on the HLBV model, but not distributed.
The Joint Venture’s payable balance to a wholly owned subsidiary of First Industrial and FR Merit for asset management fees, development fees, property management fees and other reimbursements totaled $247 and $138 at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
8. Commitments and Contingencies
In the normal course of business, the Joint Venture is involved in legal actions arising from the ownership of its properties. In management’s opinion, the liabilities, if any, that may ultimately result from such legal actions are not expected to have a materially adverse effect on the financial position, operations or liquidity of the Joint Venture.
In connection with the Joint Venture’s sale of 358 developable acres to a third party on June 30, 2022 (See Note 3) and the Joint Venture’s sale of 31 acres to a third party on March 30, 2023 (see Note 3), the Joint Venture is required to complete infrastructure work for both purchasers. As of December 31, 2024, the estimated cost of the infrastructure work was $22,041 of which $7,842 remains to be incurred.
9. Subsequent Events
Subsequent events have been evaluated and disclosed herein relating to events that have occurred from January 1, 2025 through the issuance date of this report, February 13, 2025.
From January 1, 2025 to February 13, 2025, the Joint Venture borrowed $4,754 under the construction loan agreement.
From January 1, 2025 to February 13, 2025, Diamond and FR Merit contributed $84 and $81, respectively, to the Joint Venture.
