1. Basis of Presentation

Sun Communities, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and all wholly-owned or majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries, including Sun Communities Operating Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”) and Sun Home Services, Inc. (“SHS”) are referred to herein as the “Company,” “us,” “we,” and “our.”

We follow accounting standards set by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). FASB establishes accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), which we follow to ensure that we consistently report our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. References to GAAP issued by the FASB in these footnotes are to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”).

These unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information and in accordance with GAAP. We present interim disclosures and certain information and footnote disclosures as required by SEC rules and regulations. Accordingly, the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments, including adjustments of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial statements. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period financial statements in order to conform to current period presentation.

Estimates inherent in the current financial reporting process inevitably involve assumptions about future events. Since December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, referred to as the COVID-19 virus, has spread to countries in which we operate. COVID-19 has become a global pandemic. Commencing in March 2020, authorities in jurisdictions where our properties are located have issued restrictions on travel and the types of businesses that may continue to operate. Our property site count consists of 66 percent manufactured housing (“MH”) for residents and 34 percent recreational vehicle (“RV”) for guests. All of our RV resorts are now open, however government regulations may limit the amenities available at any given park. The extent and duration of the travel and business restrictions will have an effect on estimates used in the preparation of financial statements. This includes the net operating income (“NOI”) assumptions in our long-lived asset impairment testing, the ultimate collectability of rent payments from residents and guests due to the effects of COVID-19 on their financial position, and fair value measurement changes for financial assets that we have elected to measure at fair value.

The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full year. These unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 as filed with the SEC on February 20, 2020 (the “2019 Annual Report”). These statements have been prepared on a basis that is substantially consistent with the accounting principles applied in our 2019 Annual Report.

Revenue Recognition Policies and Performance Obligations

On January 1, 2018, we adopted FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09 “ Revenue from Contracts with Customers ” and the other related ASUs and amendments to the codification (collectively “ASC 606”). The core principle of ASC 606 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. A five-step transactional analysis is required to determine how and when to recognize revenue. ASC 606 applies to all contracts with customers, except those that are within the scope of other topics in the FASB accounting standards codification.

As a real estate owner and operator, the majority of our revenue is derived from site and home leases that are accounted for pursuant to ASC 842 “ Leases .” For transactions in the scope of ASC 606, we recognize revenue when control of goods or services transfers to the customer, in the amount that we expect to receive for the transfer of goods or provision of services. The adoption of ASC 606 did not result in any change to the timing and pattern of revenue recognition. Accordingly, retrospective application to prior periods or a cumulative catch-up adjustment was unnecessary.

Income from real property - Residents in our communities lease the site on which their home is located, and either own or lease their home. Resident leases are generally for one-year or month-to-month terms and are renewable by mutual agreement between us and the resident, or in some cases, as provided by jurisdictional statute. Lease revenues for sites and homes fall under the scope of ASC 842, and are accounted for as operating leases with straight-line recognition. Income from real property includes income from site leases for annual MH residents, site leases for annual RV residents and site rentals to transient RV residents. Non-lease components of our site lease contracts, which are primarily provision of utility services, are accounted for with the site lease as a single lease under ASC 842. Additionally, we include collections of real estate taxes from residents within Income from real property.

Revenue from home sales - Our taxable REIT subsidiary, SHS, sells manufactured homes to current and prospective residents in our communities. Prior to adoption of ASC 606, we recognized revenue for home sales pursuant to ASC 605 “ Revenue Recognition, ” as manufactured homes are tangible personal property that can be located on any land parcel. Manufactured homes are not permanent fixtures or improvements to the underlying real estate and were therefore not considered to be subject to the guidance in ASC 360-20 “ Real Estate Sales ” by us. In accordance with the core principle of ASC 606, we recognize revenue from home sales at the time of closing when control of the home transfers to the customer. After closing of the sale transaction, we have no remaining performance obligation. As of June 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, we had $ 19.2 million and $ 20.9 million, respectively, of receivables from contracts with customers, which consists of home sales proceeds, and are presented as a component of Notes and other receivables, net on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. These receivables represent balances owed to us for previously completed performance obligations for sales of manufactured homes.

Rental home revenue - is comprised of rental agreements whereby we lease homes to residents in our communities. We account for these revenues under ASC 842.

Ancillary revenue - is primarily composed of proceeds from restaurant, golf, merchandise and other activities at our RV communities and is included in the scope of ASC 606. Revenues are recognized at point of sale when control of the good or service transfers to the customer and our performance obligation is satisfied. In addition, leasing of short-term vacation home rentals is included within Ancillary revenue and falls within the scope of ASC 842. Sales and other taxes that we collect concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from the transaction price.

Interest income - is earned primarily on our notes receivable, which include installment notes receivables on manufactured homes purchased by us from loan originators and notes receivables from real estate developers. Interest income on these receivables is accrued based on the unpaid principal balances of the underlying loans on a level yield basis over the life of the loans. Interest income is not in the scope of ASC 606. Refer to Note 4, “Notes and Other Receivables,” for additional information.

Broker commissions and other revenues, net - is primarily comprised of brokerage commissions for sales of manufactured homes, where we act as agent and arrange for a third party to transfer a manufactured home to a customer within one of our communities. Brokerage commission revenues are recognized on a net basis at closing, when the transaction is completed and our performance obligations have been fulfilled.

In January 2020, we amended the Operating Partnership’s partnership agreement at the election of certain Aspen preferred OP unit holders. The amendment extended the automatic redemption date and reduced the annual distribution rate for 270,000 of the Aspen preferred OP units (the “Extended Units”). Subject to certain limitations, at any time prior to January 1, 2024 (or prior to January 1, 2034 with respect to the Extended Units), the holder of each Aspen preferred OP unit at its option may convert such Aspen preferred OP unit into: (a) if the average closing price of our common stock for the preceding ten trading days is $ 68.00 per share or less, 0.397 common OP units; or (b) if the ten-day average closing price is greater than $ 68.00 per share, the number of common OP units is determined by dividing (i) the sum of (A) $ 27.00 plus (B) 25 percent of the amount by which the ten-day average closing price exceeds $ 68.00 per share, by (ii) the ten-day average closing price. The current preferred distribution rate is 3.8 percent on the Extended Units and 6.5 percent on all other Aspen preferred OP units. On January 2, 2024 (or January 2, 2034 with respect to the Extended Units), we are required to redeem for cash all Aspen preferred OP units that have not been converted to common OP units. As of June 30, 2020, 270,000 of the Extended Units and 1,013,819 other Aspen preferred units were outstanding.

Lines of Credit

Credit agreement - In May 2019, we amended and restated our credit agreement with Citibank, N.A. and certain other lenders. Pursuant to the credit agreement, we entered into a senior credit facility with Citibank and certain lenders in the amount of $ 750.0 million, comprised of a $ 650.0 million revolving loan, with the ability to use up to $ 100.0 million for advances in Australian dollars, and a $ 100.0 million term loan (the “A&R Facility”). The A&R Credit Agreement has a four-year term ending May 21, 2023 , which can be extended for two additional six-month periods, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions as defined in the credit agreement. The credit agreement also provides for additional commitments in an amount not to exceed $ 350.0 million. The funding of these additional commitments is subject to certain conditions, including obtaining the consent of the lenders, some of which are outside of our control. If additional borrowings are made pursuant to any such additional commitments, the aggregate borrowing limit under the A&R Facility may be increased up to $ 1.1 billion.

The A&R Facility bears interest at a floating rate based on the Eurodollar rate or Bank Bill Swap Bid Rate plus a margin that is determined based on our leverage ratio calculated in accordance with the credit agreement, which margin can range from 1.20 percent to 2.10 percent for the revolving loan and 1.20 percent to 2.05 percent for the term loan. As of June 30, 2020, the margin based on our leverage ratio was 1.2 percent on the revolving loan and 1.2 percent on the term loan. We had $ 63.9 million and zero of borrowings on the revolving loan and the term loan, respectively, as of June 30, 2020. We had $ 123.6 million of borrowings on the revolving loan and no borrowings on the term loan, as of December 31, 2019.

The A&R Facility provides us with the ability to issue letters of credit. Our issuance of letters of credit does not increase our borrowings outstanding under our line of credit but does reduce the borrowing amount available. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had approximately $ 3.1 million and $ 2.8 million of outstanding letters of credit, respectively.

Floor plan - We have a $ 12.0 million manufactured home floor plan facility renewable indefinitely until our lender provides us at least a twelve month notice of their intent to terminate the agreement. The interest rate is 100 basis points over the greater of the prime rate as quoted in the Wall Street Journal on the first business day of each month or 5.0 percent. At June 30, 2020, the effective interest rate was 6.0 percent. The outstanding balance was $ 1.4 million as of June 30, 2020 and $ 3.3 million as of December 31, 2019. These balances are recorded within the line of credit line item on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In addition, certain of our subsidiary borrowers own properties that secure loans. These subsidiaries are consolidated within our accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements, however, each of these subsidiaries’ assets and credit are not available to satisfy our debts and other obligations, any of our other subsidiaries or any other person or entity.

10. Share-Based Compensation

As of June 30, 2020, we had two share-based compensation plans: the Sun Communities, Inc. 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (“2015 Equity Incentive Plan”) and the First Amended and Restated 2004 Non-Employee Director Option Plan (“2004 Non-Employee Director Option Plan”). We believe granting equity awards will provide certain executives, key employees and directors additional incentives to promote our financial success and promote employee and director retention by providing an opportunity to acquire or increase the direct proprietary interest of those individuals in our operations and future.

D uring the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, shares were granted as follows:


Grant Period	Type	Plan	Shares Granted		Grant Date Fair Value Per Share			Vesting Type	Vesting Anniversary	Percentage
2020	Key Employees	2015 Equity Incentive Plan	500		$	137.19	⁽¹⁾	Time Based	20.0 % annually over 5 years

2019	Directors	2004 Non-Employee Director Option Plan	18,000		$	113.68	⁽¹⁾	Time Based	3rd	100.0	%
2019	Key Employees	2015 Equity Incentive Plan	55,770		$	120.01	⁽¹⁾	Time Based	20.0 % annually over 5 years
2019	Key Employees	2015 Equity Incentive Plan	6,250		$	142.48	(1)	Time Based	20.0 % annually over 5 years

⁽¹⁾ The fair values of the grants were determined by using the average closing price of our common stock on the dates the shares were issued.

⁽²⁾ Share-based compensation for restricted stock awards with market conditions is measured based on an estimate of shares expected to vest. We estimate the fair value of share-based compensation for restricted stock with market conditions using a Monte Carlo simulation. At the grant date our common stock price was $ 165.97 . Based on the Monte Carlo simulation we expect 75.6 % of the 69,000 shares to vest.

⁽³⁾ Share-based compensation for restricted stock awards with market conditions is measured based on an estimate of shares expected to vest. We estimate the fair value of share-based compensation for restricted stock with market conditions using a Monte Carlo simulation. At the grant date our common stock price was $ 115.39 . Based on the Monte Carlo simulation we expect 75.1 % of the 66,000 shares to vest.

Vesting

The vesting requirements for 248,155 and 196,106 restricted shares granted to our executives, directors and employees were satisfied during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

11. Segment Reporting

We group our operating segments into reportable segments that provide similar products and services. Each operating segment has discrete financial information evaluated regularly by our chief operating decision maker in evaluating and assessing performance. We have two reportable segments: (i) Real Property Operations and (ii) Home Sales and Rentals. The Real Property Operations segment owns, operates, has an interest in a portfolio, and develops MH communities and RV communities, and is in the business of acquiring, operating, and expanding MH and RV communities. The Home Sales and Rentals segment offers manufactured home sales and leasing services to tenants and prospective tenants of our communities .

Transactions between our segments are eliminated in consolidation. Transient RV revenue is included in the Real Property Operations segment revenues. Transient revenue was $ 25.3 million in the first quarter ended March 31, 2020 and $ 21.0 million for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020. Transient revenue was $ 121.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. We recognized 20.1 percent in the first quarter, 23.2 percent in the second quarter, 40.3 percent in the third quarter, and 16.4 percent in the fourth quarter.

A presentation of segment financial information is summarized as follows (in thousands):

12. Income Taxes

We have elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) pursuant to Section 856(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”). In order for us to qualify as a REIT, at least 95 percent of our gross income in any year must be derived from qualifying sources. In addition, a REIT must distribute annually at least 90 percent of its REIT taxable income (calculated without any deduction for dividends paid and excluding capital gain) to its stockholders and meet other tests.

Qualification as a REIT involves the satisfaction of numerous requirements (on an annual and quarterly basis) established under highly technical and complex Code provisions for which there are limited judicial or administrative interpretations and involves the determination of various factual matters and circumstances not entirely within our control. In addition, frequent changes occur in the area of REIT taxation which requires us to continually monitor our tax status. We analyzed the various REIT tests and confirmed that we continued to qualify as a REIT for the quarter ended June 30, 2020.

As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to United States (“U.S.”) federal income taxes at the corporate level on the ordinary taxable income we distribute to our stockholders as dividends. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, our taxable income could be subject to U.S. federal income tax at regular corporate rates. Even if we qualify as a REIT, we may be subject to certain state and local income taxes as well as U.S. federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed income. In addition, taxable income from non-REIT activities managed through taxable REIT subsidiaries is subject to federal, state, and local income taxes. we are also subject to local income taxes in Canada as a result of the acquisition in 2016 of certain properties located in Canada. We do not provide for withholding taxes on our undistributed earnings from our Canadian subsidiaries as they are reinvested and will continue to be reinvested indefinitely outside of the U.S. However, we are subject to Australian withholding taxes on distributions from our investment in Ingenia Communities Group.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect the impact of temporary differences between the amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the basis of such assets and liabilities as measured by tax laws. Deferred tax assets are reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance to the amount where realization is more likely than not assured after considering all available evidence. Our temporary differences primarily relate to net operating loss carryforwards, depreciation and basis differences between tax and U.S. GAAP on our Canadian investments. Our deferred tax assets that have a full valuation allowance relate to our taxable REIT subsidiaries business. Net deferred tax liabilities of $ 19.8 million and $ 21.0 million for Canadian entities have been recorded in relation to corporate entities and included in “Other liabilities” in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. There are no U.S. federal deferred tax assets or liabilities included in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

We had no unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2020 and 2019. We do not expect significant changes in tax positions that would result in unrecognized tax benefits within one year of June 30, 2020.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 we recorded a current tax expense for federal, state, Canadian income taxes and Australian withholding taxes of $ 0.1 million and $ 0.6 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 we recorded a current tax expense for federal, state and Canadian income taxes of $ 0.3 million and $ 0.5 million, respectively.

For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2020 we recorded a deferred tax benefit of $ 0.1 million and $ 0.2 million, respectively. For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded a deferred tax benefit of $ 0.1 million and $ 0.3 million, respectively.

14. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Our financial instruments consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, marketable securities, notes and other receivables, accounts payable, and debt.

ASC Topic 820 “ Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, ” requires disclosure regarding determination of fair value for assets and liabilities and establishes a hierarchy under which these assets and liabilities must be grouped, based on significant levels of observable or unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our market assumption. This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. These two types of inputs have created the following fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 - Quoted unadjusted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and

Level 3 - Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

We utilize fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. The following methods and assumptions were used in order to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value:

Marketable Securities

Marketable securities held by us and accounted for under the ASC 321 “ Investment Equity Securities ” are measured at fair value. Any change in fair value is recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Operations in Remeasurement of marketable securities in accordance with ASU 2016-01 “ Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities .” The fair value is measured by the quoted unadjusted share price which is readily available in active markets (Level 1).

The change in the marketable securities balance is as follows (in thousands):


	Six Months Ended		Year Ended
	June 30, 2020		December 31, 2019
Beginning Balance	$	94,727	$	49,037
Additional purchase	11,757		8,995
Change in fair value measurement	( 4,128 )		34,240
Foreign currency translation adjustment	( 2,728 )		816
Dividend reinvestment, net of tax	936		1,639

Ending Balance	$	100,564	$	94,727

Installment Notes Receivable on Manufactured Homes

Installment notes receivable on manufactured homes are recorded at fair value and are measured using model-derived indicative pricing using observable inputs, inclusive of default rates, interest rates and recovery rates (Level 2). Refer to Note 4, “Notes and Other Receivables,” and Note 17, “Recent Accounting Pronouncement,” for additional detail.

Notes Receivable from Real Estate Developers

Notes receivable from real estate developers are recorded at fair value and are measured using prevailing market interest rates (Level 2).The carrying values of the notes generally approximate their fair market values either due to the nature of the note and/or the note being secured by underlying collateral and/or personal guarantees. Refer to Note 4, “Notes and Other Receivables,” and Note 17, “Recent Accounting Pronouncement,” for additional detail.

Long-Term Debt and Lines of Credit

The fair value of long-term debt is based on the estimates of management and on rates currently quoted, rates currently prevailing for comparable loans, and instruments of comparable maturities (Level 2). Refer to Note 8, “Debt and Lines of Credit,” for additional information.

Financial Liabilities

We estimate the fair value of our contingent consideration liability based on discounting of future cash flows using market interest rates and adjusting for non-performance risk over the remaining term of the liability (Level 2).

Other Financial Instruments

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, other receivables, and accounts payable approximate their fair market values due to the short-term nature of those instruments.

17. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements - Adopted

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments . ” “CECL” This update replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. As of January 1, 2020, we adopted the fair value option for our installment notes receivable on manufactured homes and the notes receivable within the GTSC JV which resulted in fair value adjustments of $ 1.6 million and $ 0.3 million, respectively. We also adopted the fair value option on notes receivable from real estate developers. The carrying values of those notes generally approximate their fair market values either due to the short-term nature of the loan and/or the note being secured by underlying collateral and/or personal guarantees. The adoption of CECL had an immaterial impact on our remaining financial instruments within the CECL scope. Refer to Note 4, “Notes and Other Receivables,”, and Note 6. “Investment in Nonconsolidated Affiliates,” for additional detail.

18. Subsequent Events

Acquisition

Subsequent to the quarter ended June 30, 2020, we acquired a RV community in Jacksonville, Florida with 421 developed sites for a total purchase price of $ 34.0 million.

Disposition

On July 1, 2020, we closed on the sale of a MH community located in Great Falls, Montana, containing 226 sites, for $ 13.0 million. The assets and liabilities associated with the transaction were classified as held for sale on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2020.

We have evaluated our Consolidated Financial Statements for subsequent events through the date that this Form 10-Q was issued.

SUN COMMUNITIES, INC.

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

The following discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying Notes, along with our 2019 Annual Report.

OVERVIEW

We are a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed REIT. As of June 30, 2020, we owned and operated or held an interest in a portfolio of 426 developed properties located in 33 states throughout the U.S. and one province in Canada, including 267 MH communities, 125 RV communities, and 34 properties containing both MH and RV sites.

We have been in the business of acquiring, operating, developing, and expanding MH and RV communities since 1975. We lease individual sites with utility access for placement of manufactured homes and RVs to our customers. We are also engaged through SHS in the marketing, selling, and leasing of new and pre-owned homes to current and future residents in our communities. The operations of SHS support and enhance our occupancy levels, property performance, and cash flows.

COVID-19 IMPACT

As of June 30, 2020, all of our MH communities and RV resorts are open. Our execution of both our operation and financial plans has helped to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on our business. These efforts include an equity offering in May 2020 of $633.1 million after deducting expenses related to the offering, to bolster our liquidity. We also eliminated, reduced or deferred non-essential expenditures for a limited time period. We used a portion of the proceeds from our equity raise in May 2020, to fund certain recurring capital expenditures to maintain the quality of our communities and to protect the equity of our residents’ investments in their homes. We are actively reviewing our acquisition pipeline for transactions that meet our business objectives. Additionally, our Board of Directors and executive officers elected to forgo their base compensation for the second quarter. Compensation to both our Board of Directors and executive officers has been restored to prior levels effective July 1, 2020. Cost containment measures included the furlough of a group of team members in April 2020. Over 80 percent of furloughed team members have returned to work as of June 30, 2020. We continue to provide medical health insurance coverage to furloughed team members, if enrolled, at no cost to the team member.

We had $373.5 million of unrestricted cash on hand as of June 30, 2020 to maintain elevated liquidity levels. We used a portion of the proceeds received from the May 2020 equity offering to pay down our line of credit. As of June 30, 2020, there is $683.0 million of remaining capacity on the line of credit. We also have 151 unencumbered properties with an estimated asset value, as of June 30, 2020, of approximately $2.8 billion available to secure potential mortgage debt.

We continue to provide essential services using social distancing techniques and minimal contact. To promote social distancing, we are encouraging our residents to use our online rent payment portals and other payment methods. We have instituted numerous health and safety measures at our communities and our Main Office to keep team members safe. These measures include infrared thermometers at entrances to monitor team members’ temperatures, increased cleaning and sanitation of shared spaces and social distancing protocols throughout our footprint. We closely monitor and track orders by federal, state and local authorities and hold regular status calls with our operations and Main Office leadership teams. We have implemented and continue to encourage remote working arrangements, wherever possible, to keep our team members safe and to do our part to promote social distancing.

While we are experiencing lower traffic at our communities as would be expected with shelter-in-place mandates and other travel restrictions, we are still seeing demand for move-ins and expect fewer move-outs during this time. We are complying with temporary bans enacted by certain states on evictions of past due residents, which has created a backlog of anticipated move outs once the eviction bans are lifted.

We provided a temporary hardship program to those residents who have been economically disadvantaged as a result of COVID-19 for the months of April and May. This hardship program defers the payment of April and May rent over twelve months, commencing on July 1, 2020. When the program ended in June, we had provided deferred relief of $4.4 million to approximately 4 percent of residents in our communities, including owner occupied sites and rental home sites. As of June 30, 2020, approximately 12 percent of the hardship program funds had been repaid. We anticipate that a majority of these residents have or will receive unemployment benefits and economic stimulus under the CARES Act which will aid in the payment of rent due. Due to the effects of COVID-19 on our residents, we have also suspended charging various fees, including late fees for delinquent payments, non-sufficient funds fees, and incremental month to month fees if a resident lease terminates during the pandemic. We have also deferred certain increases to monthly rental rates.

SUN COMMUNITIES, INC.

All of our RV resorts are currently open; however indoor and outdoor activities are limited to what government regulations permit, and to encourage social distancing.

We remain committed to assisting individuals who are in the process of leasing a site or purchasing a home, while maintaining health and safety protocols including following strict social distancing. Virtual viewings of homes are being utilized to avoid or minimize contact. To the extent stay-at-home orders and travel restrictions are not lifted, home sale revenue will be adversely impacted.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

We have identified significant accounting policies that, as a result of the judgments, uncertainties, and complexities of the underlying accounting standards and operations involved could result in material changes to our financial condition or results of operations under different conditions or using different assumptions. Details regarding significant accounting policies are described fully in our 2019 Annual Report.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In addition to the results reported in accordance with GAAP in our “Results of Operations” below, we have provided information regarding net operating income (“NOI”) and funds from operations (“FFO”) as supplemental performance measures. We believe NOI and FFO are appropriate measures given their wide use by and relevance to investors and analysts following the real estate industry. NOI provides a measure of rental operations and does not factor in depreciation, amortization and non-property specific expenses such as general and administrative expenses. FFO, reflecting the assumption that real estate values rise or fall with market conditions, principally adjusts for the effects of GAAP depreciation/amortization of real estate assets. In addition, NOI and FFO are commonly used in various ratios, pricing multiples/yields and returns and valuation calculations used to measure financial position, performance and value.

NOI is derived from revenues minus property operating expenses and real estate taxes. NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure that we believe is helpful to investors as a supplemental measure of operating performance because it is an indicator of the return on property investment and provides a method of comparing property performance over time. We use NOI as a key measure when evaluating performance and growth of particular properties and/or groups of properties. The principal limitation of NOI is that it excludes depreciation, amortization, interest expense and non-property specific expenses such as general and administrative expenses, all of which are significant costs. Therefore, NOI is a measure of the operating performance of our properties rather than of the Company overall.

We believe that GAAP net income (loss) is the most directly comparable measure to NOI. NOI should not be considered to be an alternative to GAAP net income (loss) as an indication of our financial performance or GAAP cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity; nor is it indicative of funds available for our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions. Because of the inclusion of items such as interest, depreciation, and amortization, the use of GAAP net income (loss) as a performance measure is limited as these items may not accurately reflect the actual change in market value of a property, in the case of depreciation and in the case of interest, may not necessarily be linked to the operating performance of a real estate asset, as it is often incurred at a parent company level and not at a property level.

FFO is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) as GAAP net income (loss), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable operating property, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure that management believes is a useful supplemental measure of our operating performance. By excluding gains and losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets, impairment and excluding real estate asset depreciation and amortization (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates), FFO provides a performance measure that, when compared period-over-period, reflects the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, and operating costs, providing perspective not readily apparent from GAAP net income (loss). Management believes the use of FFO has been beneficial in improving the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and making comparisons of REIT operating results more meaningful. We also use FFO excluding certain gain and loss items that management considers unrelated to the operational and financial performance of our core business (“Core FFO”). We believe that Core FFO provides enhanced comparability for investor evaluations of period-over-period results.

SUN COMMUNITIES, INC.

We believe that GAAP net income (loss) is the most directly comparable measure to FFO. The principal limitation of FFO is that it does not replace GAAP net income (loss) as a performance measure or GAAP cash flow from operations as a liquidity measure. Because FFO excludes significant economic components of GAAP net income (loss) including depreciation and amortization, FFO should be used as a supplement to GAAP net income (loss) and not as an alternative to it. Further, FFO is not intended as a measure of a REIT’s ability to meet debt principal repayments and other cash requirements, nor as a measure of working capital. FFO is calculated in accordance with our interpretation of standards established by NAREIT, which may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that interpret the NAREIT definition differently.

SUN COMMUNITIES, INC.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

We report operating results under two segments: Real Property Operations and Home Sales and Rentals. The Real Property Operations segment owns, operates, develops, or has an interest in, a portfolio of MH and RV communities throughout the U.S. and in Canada, and is in the business of acquiring, operating, and expanding MH and RV communities. The Home Sales and Rentals segment offers MH and RV park model sales and leasing services to tenants and prospective tenants of our communities. We evaluate segment operating performance based on NOI and gross profit. Refer to Note 11, “Segment Reporting,” in our accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Summary Statements of Operations

The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts our operations, financial condition and financial results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic, the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures, among others. The rapid development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the full adverse impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Real Property Operations - Same Communities

A key management tool used when evaluating performance and growth of our properties is a comparison of our Same Communities. The Same Communities data includes all properties which we have owned and operated continuously since January 1, 2019, exclusive of properties recently completed or under construction, and other properties as determined by management. The Same Community data may change from time-to-time depending on acquisitions, dispositions, management discretion, significant transactions, or unique situations. In order to evaluate the growth of the Same Communities, management has classified certain items differently than our GAAP statements. The reclassification difference between our GAAP statements and our Same Community portfolio is the reclassification of water and sewer revenues from income from real property to utilities. A significant portion of our utility charges are re-billed to our residents.

The following tables reflect certain financial and other information for our Same Communities as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

SUN COMMUNITIES, INC.

For the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the 1.4 percent growth in NOI is primarily due to decreased Property operating expenses of $5.6 million, or 8.0 percent, partially offset by decreased Income from real property of $3.7 million, or 1.8 percent. The decrease in Property operating expenses was primarily attributable to decreases in utilities, supplies and repair costs, and payroll and benefits; all of which were impacted by COVID-19 business operation restrictions. Income from real property decreased due to fewer transient reservations at RV parks due to travel restrictions and required reduced business operations.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the 4.0 percent growth in NOI is primarily due to increased Income from real property of $6.8 million, or 1.6 percent, and a $4.5 million, or 3.4 percent, decrease in Property operating expenses. Income from real property increased due to a 4.3 percent increase in total monthly base rent per site when compared to the same period in 2019, and a 1.9 percent increase in occupancy. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in transient revenue primarily due to fewer transient reservations at RV parks due to travel restrictions and required reduced business operations. The decrease in Property operating expenses was primarily attributable to decreases in utilities, supplies and repair costs, and payroll and benefits; all of which were impacted by COVID-19 business operation restrictions.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our principal liquidity demands have historically been, and are expected to continue to be, distributions to our stockholders and the unit holders of the Operating Partnership, capital improvement of properties, the purchase of new and pre-owned homes, property acquisitions, development and expansion of properties, and debt repayment.

Subject to market conditions, we intend to continue to identify opportunities to expand our development pipeline and acquire existing communities. We finance acquisitions through available cash, secured financing, draws on our lines of credit, the assumption of existing debt on properties, and the issuance of equity securities. We will continue to evaluate acquisition opportunities that meet our criteria. Refer to Note 3, “Real Estate Acquisitions,” in our accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding recent community acquisitions.

We also intend to continue to strengthen our capital and liquidity positions by focusing on our core fundamentals, which are generating positive cash flows from operations, maintaining appropriate debt levels and leverage ratios, and controlling overhead costs. We intend to meet our liquidity requirements through available cash balances, cash flows generated from operations, draws on our lines of credit, and the use of debt and equity offerings under our shelf registration statement. Refer to Note 8, “Debt and Lines of Credit,” and Note 9, “Equity and Temporary Equity,” in our accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Capital Expenditures

Our capital expenditures include expansion sites and development construction costs, lot modifications, recurring capital expenditures and rental home purchases.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, expansion and development activities of $127.1 million and $121.3 million, respectively, related to costs consisting primarily of construction of sites and other costs necessary to complete home site improvements. The increase is primarily driven by the ground-up developments and redevelopment at five communities.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, lot modification expenditures were $14.2 million and $13.9 million, respectively. These expenditures improve asset quality in our communities and are incurred when an existing home is removed and the site is prepared for a new home (more often than not, a multi-sectional home). These activities, which are mandated by strict manufacturer’s installation requirements and state building codes, include items such as new foundations, driveways, and utility upgrades.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, recurring capital expenditures were $9.1 million and $11.1 million, respectively, related to our continued commitment to the upkeep of our properties.

Due to COVID-19, during March, April and May 2020, we significantly curtailed non-essential capital expenditures activities, and we are carefully assessing acquisition activity in the near term to preserve financial flexibility. We used a portion of the proceeds from our equity raise in May 2020, to fund certain recurring capital expenditures in our communities to maintain the quality of our communities and protect the equity of our residents’ investments in their homes. We are actively reviewing our acquisition pipeline for transactions that meet our business objectives.

We invest in the acquisition of homes intended for the Rental Program. Expenditures for these investments depend upon the condition of the markets for repossessions and new home sales, as well as rental homes. We finance certain of our new home purchases with a $12.0 million manufactured home floor plan facility. Our ability to purchase homes for sale or rent may be limited by cash received from third-party financing of our home sales, available manufactured home floor plan financing and working capital available on our lines of credit.

Cash Flow Activities

Our cash flow activities are summarized as follows (in thousands):


	Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2020		June 30, 2019
Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities	$	302,027	$	259,844
Net Cash Used for Investing Activities	$	(368,116)	$	(570,530)
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities	$	420,665	$	294,019
Effect of Exchange Rate Changes on Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash	$	(192)	$	443

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash increased by $354.4 million from $34.8 million as of December 31, 2019, to $389.2 million as of June 30, 2020.

Operating Activities - Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $42.2 million from $259.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 to $302.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Our net cash flows provided by operating activities from continuing operations may be adversely impacted by, among other things: (a) the market and economic conditions in our current markets generally, and specifically in metropolitan areas of our current markets; (b) lower occupancy and rental rates of our properties; (c) increased operating costs, such as wage and benefit costs, insurance premiums, real estate taxes and utilities, that cannot be passed on to our tenants; (d) decreased sales of manufactured homes; (e) current volatility in economic conditions and the financial markets; and (f) the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. See “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our 2019 Annual Report and Part II, Item 1A of this report.

Investing Activities - Net cash used for investing activities was $368.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $570.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Refer to Note 3, “Real Estate Acquisitions,” in our accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Financing Activities - Net cash provided by financing activities was $420.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $294.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Refer to Note 8, “Debt and Lines of Credit” and Note 9, “Equity and Temporary Equity,” in our accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Financial Flexibility

In May 2020, we closed an underwritten registered public offering of 4,968,000 shares of common stock. Proceeds from the offering were $633.1 million after deducting expenses related to the offering. We used the net proceeds of this offering to repay borrowings outstanding under the revolving loan under our senior credit facility. We intend to use the remaining net proceeds of this offering to fund possible future acquisitions, for working capital and general corporate purposes.

In July 2017, we entered into an at the market offering sales agreement (as amended, the “Sales Agreement”) with certain sales agents (collectively, the “Sales Agents”), whereby we may offer and sell shares of our common stock, having an aggregate offering price of up to $450.0 million, from time to time through the Sales Agents. The Sales Agents are entitled to compensation in an agreed amount not to exceed 2.0 percent of the gross price per share for any shares sold under the Sales Agreement. Through June 30, 2020, we have sold shares of our common stock for gross proceeds of $163.8 million under the Sales Agreement. There were no issuances of common stock under the Sales Agreement during the three months ended June 30, 2020 or the year ended December 31, 2019.

In October 2019, we assumed a term loan facility with Citibank N.A. (“Citibank”), in the amount of $58.0 million in relation to an acquisition. The term loan has a four-year term ending October 29, 2023, and bears interest at a floating rate based on the Eurodollar rate or Prime rate. The outstanding balance was $50 million at June 30, 2020 and $57.0 million at December 31, 2019, respectively.

SUN COMMUNITIES, INC.

In May 2019, we amended and restated our credit agreement with Citibank, N.A. and certain other lenders. Pursuant to the credit agreement, we entered into a senior credit facility with Citibank and certain lenders in the amount of $750.0 million, comprised of a $650.0 million revolving loan, with the ability to use up to $100.0 million for advances in Australian dollars, and a $100.0 million term loan (the “A&R Facility”). The A&R Credit Agreement has a four-year term ending May 21, 2023, which can be extended for two additional six-month periods, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions as defined in the credit agreement. The credit agreement also provides for additional commitments in an amount not to exceed $350.0 million. The funding of these additional commitments is subject to certain conditions, including obtaining the consent of the lenders, some of which are outside of our control. If additional borrowings are made pursuant to any such additional commitments, the aggregate borrowing limit under the A&R Facility may be increased up to $1.1 billion.

The A&R Facility bears interest at a floating rate based on the Eurodollar rate or Bank Bill Swap Bid Rate plus a margin that is determined based on our leverage ratio calculated in accordance with the credit agreement, which margin can range from 1.20 percent to 2.10 percent for the revolving loan and 1.20 percent to 2.05 percent for the term loan. As of June 30, 2020, the margin based on our leverage ratio was 1.2 percent on the revolving loan and 1.2 percent on the term loan. We had $63.9 million and no borrowings on the revolving loan and the term loan, respectively, as of June 30, 2020. We had $123.6 million of borrowings on the revolving loan and no borrowings on the term loan, as of December 31, 2019.

The A&R Facility provides us with the ability to issue letters of credit. Our issuance of letters of credit does not increase our borrowings outstanding under our line of credit but does reduce the borrowing amount available. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had approximately $3.1 million and $2.8 million of outstanding letters of credit, respectively.

Pursuant to the terms of the A&R Facility, we are subject to various financial and other covenants. We are currently in compliance with these covenants and do not anticipate that we will be unable to meet these covenants in the near term as a result of COVID-19’s impact on our business. The most restrictive financial covenants for the A&R Facility are as follows:

Covenant

Requirement

As of June 30, 2020

Maximum Leverage Ratio

<65.0%

23.9%

Minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio

>1.40

3.30

Minimum Tangible Net Worth

>$3,257,121

$6,323,362

Maximum Dividend Payout Ratio

<95.0%

62.8%

Maximum Variable Rate Indebtedness

<50.0%

0.9%

We anticipate meeting our long-term liquidity requirements, such as scheduled debt maturities, large property acquisitions, expansion and development of communities, and Operating Partnership unit redemptions through the issuance of certain debt or equity securities and/or the collateralization of our properties.

As of June 30, 2020, all of our MH communities and RV resorts are open. Our execution of both our operation and financial plans has helped to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on our business. These efforts include an equity offering in May 2020 of $633.1 million after deducting expenses related to the offering, to bolster our liquidity. We also eliminated, reduced or deferred non-essential expenditures for a limited time period. Additionally, our Board of Directors and executive officers elected to forgo base compensation for the second quarter. Compensation to both our Board of Directors and executive officers has been restored to prior levels effective July 1, 2020. Cost containment measures included the furlough of a group of team members in April 2020. Over 80 percent of furloughed team members have returned to work as of June 30, 2020. We continue to provide medical health coverage to furloughed team members, if enrolled, at no cost to the team member.

To bolster liquidity, we maintained elevated unrestricted cash on hand as of June 30, 2020 of approximately $373.5 million and have used a portion of the proceeds of our equity raise to pay down the balance on our line of credit. As of June 30, 2020, there is approximately $683.0 million of remaining capacity on the line of credit. We also have 151 unencumbered properties with an estimated asset value, as of June 30, 2020, of approximately $2.8 billion available to secure potential mortgage debt.

SUN COMMUNITIES, INC.

From time to time, we may also issue shares of our capital stock, issue equity units in our Operating Partnership, obtain debt financing, or sell selected assets. Our ability to finance our long-term liquidity requirements in such a manner will be affected by numerous economic factors affecting the MH and RV community industry at the time, including the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, the availability and cost of mortgage debt, our financial condition, the operating history of the properties, the state of the debt and equity markets, and the general national, regional, and local economic conditions. When it becomes necessary for us to approach the credit markets, the volatility in those markets could make borrowing more difficult to secure, more expensive, or effectively unavailable. See “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our 2019 Annual Report and in Part II, Item 1A of this report. If we are unable to obtain additional debt or equity financing on acceptable terms, our business, results of operations and financial condition would be adversely impacted.

As of June 30, 2020, our net debt to enterprise value was approximately 17.8 percent (assuming conversion of all common OP units, Series A-1 preferred OP units, Series A-3 preferred OP units, Series C preferred OP units, Series D preferred OP units, Series E preferred OP units, and Series F preferred OP units to shares of common stock). Our debt has a weighted average maturity of approximately 11.6 years and a weighted average interest rate of 3.9 percent.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Our off-balance sheet investments include nonconsolidated affiliates. These investments all have varying ownership structures. Substantially all of our nonconsolidated affiliates are accounted for under the equity method of accounting as we have the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the operating and financial decisions of these JV arrangements. Refer to Note 6,"Investment in Nonconsolidated Affiliates," and Note 8, "Debt and Lines of Credit," in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, for additional information on our off-balance sheet investments.

Nonconsolidated Affiliate Indebtedness - During September 2019, GTSC, LLC entered into a warehouse line of credit with a maximum loan amount of $125.0 million. During February 2020, the maximum amount was increased to $140.0 million. As of June 30, 2020, the aggregate carrying amount of debt, including both our and our partners’ share, incurred by GTSC was approximately $140.0 million (of which our proportionate share is approximately $56.0 million). The debt bears interest at a variable rate based on LIBOR plus 1.65 percent per annum and matures on September 15, 2023. Refer to Note 6,"Investment in Nonconsolidated Affiliates," for additional information on our nonconsolidated affiliates.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in market factors such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, and equity prices.

Interest Rate Risk

Our principal market risk exposure is interest rate risk. We mitigate this risk by maintaining prudent amounts of leverage, minimizing capital costs, and interest expense while continuously evaluating all available debt and equity resources and following established risk management policies and procedures, which include the periodic use of derivatives. Our primary strategy in entering into derivative contracts is to minimize the variability that interest rate changes could have on our future cash flows. From time to time, we employ derivative instruments that effectively convert a portion of our variable rate debt to fixed rate debt. We do not enter into derivative instruments for speculative purposes.

Our variable rate debt totaled $115.4 million and $76.1 million as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and bears interest at Prime or various LIBOR rates. If Prime or LIBOR increased or decreased by 1.0 percent, our interest expense would have increased or decreased by approximately $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, based on the $306.3 million and $307.1 million average balances outstanding under our variable rate debt facilities, respectively.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

Foreign currency exchange rate risk is the risk that fluctuations in currencies against the U.S. dollar will negatively impact our results of operations. We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk as a result of remeasurement and translation of the assets and liabilities of our Canadian properties, and our Australian equity investment and JV into U.S. dollars. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates can therefore create volatility in our results of operations and may adversely affect our financial condition.

At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, our stockholder’s equity included $202.1 million and $202.5 million from our Canadian subsidiaries and Australian equity investments, respectively, which represented 4.6 percent and 5.2 percent of total stockholder’s equity, respectively. Based on our sensitivity analysis, a 10.0 percent strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the Canadian and Australian dollar would have caused a reduction of $20.2 million to our total stockholder’s equity at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the specified time periods and accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (pursuant to Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) at June 30, 2020. Based upon this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2020.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 30, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Holders of our OP units have converted the following units during the three months ended June 30, 2020:
