$271.7 million invested in property under development.
Investment Update
The Company's investment spending for the three months ended June 30,
2017 totaled $936.1 million (bringing the year-to-date investment
spending to $1.2 billion), and included investments in each of its
primary operating segments:
-
Entertainment investment spending during the three months ended June
30, 2017 totaled $84.1 million, including spending on build-to-suit
development and redevelopment of megaplex theatres, entertainment
retail centers and family entertainment centers, as well as $47.9
million in acquisitions of three megaplex theatres.
-
Education investment spending during the three months ended June 30,
2017 totaled $76.3 million, including spending on build-to-suit
development and redevelopment of public charter schools, early
education centers and private schools, as well as $19.7 million in
acquisitions of three early education centers and one public charter
school and an investment of $21.4 million in mortgage notes receivable.
-
Recreation investment spending during the three months ended June 30,
2017 totaled $775.6 million, including the transaction with CNL
Lifestyle Properties Inc. ("CNL Lifestyle") and funds affiliated with
Och-Ziff Real Estate ("OZRE") valued at $730.8 million described
below. Additionally, included in recreation investment spending was
build-to-suit development of golf entertainment complexes and
attractions, and redevelopment of ski areas.
-
Other investment spending during the three months ended June 30, 2017
totaled $0.1 million, and was related to the Adelaar casino and resort
project in Sullivan County, New York.
As previously announced, on April 6, 2017, the Company completed the
transaction with CNL Lifestyle and OZRE. The Company acquired the
Northstar California Resort, 15 attraction properties (waterparks and
amusement parks), five small family entertainment centers and certain
related working capital for aggregate consideration valued at $479.8
million, including final purchase price adjustments. Additionally, the
Company provided $251.0 million of five-year, 8.5% secured debt
financing to OZRE for its purchase of 14 CNL Lifestyle ski properties
valued at $374.5 million. Subsequent to the transaction, the Company
sold the five family entertainment centers for approximately $6.8
million and one waterpark for approximately $2.5 million. No gain or
loss was recognized on these sales.
The Company’s aggregate investment in this transaction was $730.8
million and was funded with $657.5 million of the Company’s common
shares, consisting of 8,851,264 newly issued registered common shares
valued at $74.28 per share, $61.2 million of cash, and assumed net
working capital liabilities of $12.1 million. The Company's portion of
the cash purchase price was funded with borrowings under its unsecured
revolving credit facility.
Capital Recycling
During the second quarter, the Company sold seven properties, four in
the Education segment and three in the Entertainment segment, for total
proceeds of approximately $112.4 million and recognized a net gain on
sale of real estate of $25.5 million. Dispositions and mortgage note
pay-off (excluding principal amortization) totaled $134.5 million for
the six months ended June 30, 2017.
As previously discussed, the Company is committed to increasing the
tenant diversity of its public charter school portfolio and reducing the
concentration with Imagine Schools, Inc. ("Imagine"). As part of this
effort, the Company has engaged various brokers to help in this process
and part of their feedback included the need for additional lease term
on these assets. To facilitate this change, during the three months
ended June 30, 2017, the Company entered into negotiations with Imagine
to restructure the leases on six properties. In exchange for lowering
the existing annual cash payments by approximately $0.5 million and
reducing the remaining lease term to 10 years, Imagine agreed that upon
the sale of these properties, they would enter into new 20 year leases
with the buyer(s). While the Company believes the restructure will aid
in the disposition of these assets, the changes will result in the lease
structure no longer being classified as a direct financing lease.
Accordingly, management evaluated its investments in these leases and
recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $9.6 million during the three
months ended June 30, 2017. In addition, the Company performed its
annual review of the estimated unguaranteed residual values of its other
properties leased to Imagine during the second quarter and recorded an
impairment charge of $0.6 million on one of these properties.
Balance Sheet Update
The Company had a net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio (a non-GAAP
financial measure) of 5.28x at June 30, 2017. The Company had $70.9
million of unrestricted cash on hand and no balance outstanding under
its $650 million unsecured revolving credit facility at June 30, 2017.
During the second quarter, the Company prepaid in full four mortgage
notes payable totaling $30.2 million, which were secured by four theatre
properties. In addition, the Company prepaid in full a mortgage note
payable of $87.0 million that was secured by 11 theatre properties. In
connection with this note payoff, the Company recorded a gain on early
extinguishment of debt of $1.0 million. Subsequent to June 30, 2017, the
Company prepaid in full three mortgage notes payable totaling $24.9
million, which were secured by three theatre properties.
On May 23, 2017, the Company issued $450.0 million in senior unsecured
notes due on June 1, 2027. The notes bear interest at an annual rate of
4.50% and are guaranteed by certain of the Company's subsidiaries. The
Company used the net proceeds from the note offering to pay down its
unsecured revolving credit facility and for general business purposes,
including funding the Company's ongoing pipeline of acquisition and
build-to-suit projects.
Dividend Information
The Company declared regular monthly cash dividends during the second
quarter of 2017 totaling $1.02 per common share. This dividend
represents an annualized dividend of $4.08 per common share, an increase
of 6.25% over the prior year, and would be the Company's seventh
consecutive year with an annual dividend increase.
The Company also declared second quarter cash dividends of $0.359375 per
share on its 5.75% Series C cumulative convertible preferred shares,
$0.5625 per share on its 9.00% Series E cumulative convertible preferred
shares and $0.4140625 per share on its 6.625% Series F cumulative
redeemable preferred shares.
2017 Guidance
The Company is confirming its 2017 guidance for FFO as adjusted per
diluted share of a range of $5.05 to $5.20. The Company is increasing
its 2017 investment spending guidance to a range of $1.45 billion to
$1.50 billion from $1.30 billion to $1.35 billion. Disposition proceeds
are expected to total $175.0 million to $250.0 million for 2017.
FFO as adjusted guidance for 2017 is based on FFO per diluted share of
$4.71 to $4.83 adjusted for estimated costs associated with loan
refinancing or payoff, gain on insurance recovery, transaction costs,
gain on early extinguishment of debt, termination fees included in gain
on sale, deferred income tax expense and impairment of direct financing
lease (allowance for lease loss portion). FFO per diluted share is based
on a net income per diluted share range of $3.52 to $3.67 less estimated
gain on sale of real estate of a range of $0.63 to $0.66 and the impact
of Series C and Series E dilution of $0.05, plus estimated real estate
depreciation of $1.83 per diluted share and impairment of direct
financing lease (residual value portion) of $0.04 per share (in
accordance with the NAREIT definition of FFO).

The Company's supplemental information package for the second quarter
and six months ended June 30, 2017 is available on the Company's website

Impairment charges recognized during the three and six months ended
June 30, 2017 total $10.2 million and related to our investment in a
direct financing lease, net, consisting of $2.9 million related to
the residual value portion and $7.3 million related to the allowance
for lease loss portion.

|

(A)
|
|
NAREIT developed FFO as a relative non-GAAP financial measure of
performance of an equity REIT in order to recognize that
income-producing real estate historically has not depreciated on the
basis determined under GAAP and management provides FFO herein
because it believes this information is useful to investors in this
regard. FFO is a widely used measure of the operating performance of
real estate companies and is provided here as a supplemental measure
to GAAP net income available to common shareholders and earnings per
share. Pursuant to the definition of FFO by the Board of Governors
of NAREIT, the Company calculates FFO as net income available to
common shareholders, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding
gains and losses from sales of depreciable operating properties and
impairment losses of depreciable real estate, plus real estate
related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for
unconsolidated partnerships, joint ventures and other affiliates.
Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships, joint ventures and
other affiliates are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis.
The Company has calculated FFO for all periods presented in
accordance with this definition. FFO is a non-GAAP financial
measure. FFO does not represent cash flows from operations as
defined by GAAP and is not indicative that cash flows are adequate
to fund all cash needs and is not to be considered an alternative to
net income or any other GAAP measure as a measurement of the results
of our operations or our cash flows or liquidity as defined by GAAP.
In addition to FFO, the Company presents FFO as adjusted. Management
believes it is useful to provide it here as a supplemental measure
to GAAP net income available to common shareholders and earnings per
share. FFO as adjusted is FFO plus provision for loan losses, costs
(gain) associated with loan refinancing or payoff, net, retirement
severance expense, preferred share redemption costs, termination
fees associated with tenants' exercises of education properties
buy-out options, impairment of direct financing lease (allowance for
lease loss portion) and transaction costs, less gain on early
extinguishment of debt, gain (loss) on sale of land, gain on
insurance recovery and deferred tax benefit (expense). FFO as
adjusted is a non-GAAP financial measure. FFO as adjusted does not
represent cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP and is not
indicative that cash flows are adequate to fund all cash needs and
is not to be considered an alternative to net income or any other
GAAP measure as a measurement of the results of the Company's
operations, cash flows or liquidity as defined by GAAP. It should
also be noted that not all REITs calculate FFO or FFO as adjusted
the same way so comparisons of each of these non-GAAP measures with
other REITs may not be meaningful.
|
| |
|
| |
|
The conversion of the 5.75% Series C cumulative convertible preferred
shares would be dilutive to FFO and FFOAA per share for the three and
six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. Therefore, the additional 2.1
million and 2.0 million common shares that would result from the
conversion and the corresponding add-back of the preferred dividends
declared on those shares are included in the calculation of diluted FFO
and diluted FFOAA per share for the three and six months ended June 30,
2017 and 2016, respectively. The effect of the conversion of our 9.0%
Series E cumulative convertible preferred shares and the additional
1.6 million common shares that would result from the conversion do not
result in more dilution to per share results and are therefore not
included in the calculation of diluted per share data for the three and
six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.
Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio
Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio is a supplemental measure derived from
non-GAAP financial measures the Company uses to evaluate its capital
structure and the magnitude of its debt against its operating
performance. The Company believes that investors commonly use versions
of this ratio in a similar manner. In addition, financial institutions
use versions of this ratio in connection with debt agreements to set
pricing and covenant limitations. The Company's method of calculating
Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio may be different from methods used by
other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.
Reconciliations of debt and net income available to common shareholders
(both reported in accordance with GAAP) to Net Debt, Adjusted EBITDA,
and Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio (each of which is a non-GAAP
financial measure) are included in the following tables (unaudited, in

(B)
|
|
Net Debt represents debt (reported in accordance with GAAP) adjusted
to exclude deferred financing costs, net and reduced for cash and
cash equivalents. By excluding deferred financing costs, net and
reducing debt for cash and cash equivalents on hand, the result
provides an estimate of the contractual amount of borrowed capital
to be repaid, net of cash available to repay it. The Company
believes this calculation constitutes a beneficial supplemental
non-GAAP financial disclosure to investors in understanding our
financial condition. The Company's method of calculating Net Debt
may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly,
may not be comparable to such other REITs.
|
|
|
|
(C)
| |
Management uses Adjusted EBITDA in its analysis of the performance
of the business and operations of the Company. Management believes
Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because it excludes various
items that management believes are not indicative of operating
performance, and that it is an informative measure to use in
computing various financial ratios to evaluate the Company. The
Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income available to common
shareholders excluding costs associated with loan refinancing or
payoff, interest expense (net), depreciation and amortization,
equity in (income) loss from joint ventures, gain (loss) on the sale
of real estate, gain on insurance recovery, income tax expense
(benefit), preferred dividend requirements, the effect of non-cash
impairment charges, retirement severance expense, the provision for
loan losses and transaction costs, and which is then multiplied by
four to get an annual amount.
|
|
|
| |
The Company's method of calculating Adjusted EBITDA may be different
from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be
comparable to such other REITs. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of
performance under GAAP, does not represent cash generated from
operations as defined by GAAP and is not indicative of cash
available to fund all cash needs, including distributions. This
measure should not be considered as an alternative to net income for
the purpose of evaluating the Company's performance or to cash flows
as a measure of liquidity.
