National Storage Affiliates Trust Reports Second Quarter 2025 Results
GREENWOOD VILLAGE, Colo., August 04, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--National Storage Affiliates Trust ("NSA" or the "Company") (NYSE: NSA) today reported the Company's second quarter 2025 results. Second Quarter 2025 Highlights Reported net income of $31.0 million for the second quarter of 2025, a decrease of 4.1% compared to the second quarter of 2024. Reported diluted earnings per share of $0.19 for the second quarter of 2025 compared to $0.16 for the second quarter of 2024. Reported core funds from operations ("Core FFO") of $74.4 million, or $0.55 per share for the second quarter of 2025, a decrease of 11.3% per share compared to the second quarter of 2024. Reported a decrease in same store net operating income ("NOI") of 6.1% for the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, driven by a 3.0% decrease in same store total revenues and a 4.6% increase in same store property operating expenses. Reported same store period-end occupancy of 85.0% as of June 30, 2025, a decrease of 220 basis points compared to June 30, 2024. Acquired one wholly-owned self storage property and one property that is considered an annex to an existing property for approximately $11.4 million and one of NSA's unconsolidated real estate ventures acquired one self storage property for approximately $18.0 million during the second quarter of 2025. Entered into an agreement to sell ten wholly-owned self storage properties for approximately $66.5 million. Eight of the properties were sold in June 2025, while the remaining two properties are classified as held for sale as of June 30, 2025 and were sold in July 2025. Highlights Subsequent to Quarter-End On July 22, 2025, one of NSA's unconsolidated real estate ventures acquired one self storage property for approximately $21.8 million. The venture financed the acquisition with capital contributions from the venture members, of which the Company contributed approximately $5.4 million. David Cramer, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "During the second quarter, we realized sequential improvement from the prior quarter in the level of contract rate, occupancy and our rent roll-down spread. However, these positives were outweighed by continued softness in storage demand primarily driven by low existing home sales and ongoing supply pressure, especially in our Sunbelt markets, which also impacted the pace of realizing the benefits from the internalization of our PRO structure. Further, the elevated use of concessions during the quarter that drove rental volume has a near-term negative impact on revenues. The combination of these factors weighed on same store NOI and Core FFO results for the quarter and was the primary driver of our revised guidance ranges." Mr. Cramer further commented, "While macroeconomic conditions have fallen short of our expectations, we are seeing positive momentum from our enhanced marketing and revenue management strategies, and we still expect to realize the full benefits from the internalization of our PRO structure." Financial Results ($ in thousands, except per share and unit data) Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 2024 Change 2025 2024 Change Net income $ 30,958 $ 32,280 (4.1) % $ 50,477 $ 127,368 (60.4) % Funds From Operations ("FFO")(1) $ 72,341 $ 70,118 3.2 % $ 143,319 $ 142,012 0.9 % Add acquisition costs 457 480 (4.8) % 860 987 (12.9) % Add integration and executive severance costs(2) 1,583 626 152.9 % 3,625 626 479.1 % Core FFO(1) $ 74,381 $ 71,224 4.4 % $ 147,804 $ 143,625 2.9 % Earnings per share - basic and diluted $ 0.19 $ 0.16 18.8 % $ 0.29 $ 0.85 (65.9) % FFO per share and unit(1) $ 0.54 $ 0.61 (11.5) % $ 1.06 $ 1.20 (11.7) % Core FFO per share and unit(1) $ 0.55 $ 0.62 (11.3) % $ 1.09 $ 1.22 (10.7) % (1) Non-GAAP financial measures, including FFO, Core FFO and NOI, are defined in the Glossary in the supplemental financial information and, where appropriate, reconciliations of these measures and other non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures are included in the Schedules to this press release and in the supplemental financial information. (2) Executive severance costs relate to the three months ended June 30, 2024 and are recorded within the line items "General and administrative expenses" and "Non-operating income" in our consolidated statements of operations. Integration costs relate to expenses incurred as a part of the internalization of the PRO structure. Net income decreased $1.3 million for the second quarter of 2025 and $76.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 ("year-to-date") as compared to the same periods in 2024. The year-to-date decrease in net income was primarily due to larger gains on the sale of self storage properties recognized in the first quarter of 2024. Additionally, the decrease in net income for both the second quarter of 2025 and year-to-date were a result of lower NOI, driven by property dispositions and negative same store NOI growth. These impacts for the second quarter of 2025 and year-to-date were partially offset by an increase in management fees and other revenue of $2.7 million and $5.8 million, respectively, and a decrease in general and administrative expenses of $3.4 million and $5.9 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2024. The decrease in FFO and Core FFO per share and unit for the second quarter of 2025 and year-to-date was primarily driven by a decrease in same store NOI and an increase in interest expense. These impacts were partially offset by decreased management fees paid to former PROs, reflected within general and administrative expenses, following the internalization of the PRO structure. Same Store Operating Results (771 Stores) ($ in thousands, except per square foot data) Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 2024 Change 2025 2024 Change Total revenues $ 168,975 $ 174,184 (3.0) % $ 337,632 $ 347,971 (3.0) % Property operating expenses 52,720 50,407 4.6 % 104,965 100,810 4.1 % Net Operating Income (NOI) $ 116,255 $ 123,777 (6.1) % $ 232,667 $ 247,161 (5.9) % NOI Margin 68.8 % 71.1 % (2.3) % 68.9 % 71.0 % (2.1) % Average Occupancy 84.2 % 86.6 % (2.4) % 84.1 % 86.2 % (2.1) % Average Annualized Rental Revenue Per Occupied Square Foot $ 15.68 $ 15.72 (0.3) % $ 15.68 $ 15.79 (0.7) % Year-over-year same store total revenue decreased 3.0% for the second quarter of 2025 and 3.0% year-to-date as compared to the same periods in 2024. The decrease for the second quarter was driven primarily by a 240 basis point decrease in average occupancy and a 0.3% decrease in average annualized rental revenue per occupied square foot. The year-to-date same store total revenue decrease was driven primarily by a 210 basis point decrease in average occupancy and a 0.7% decrease in average annualized rental revenue per occupied square foot. Markets which generated above portfolio average same store total revenue growth include: Portland, Houston and San Juan, PR. Markets which generated below portfolio average same store total revenue growth include: Riverside-San Bernardino, Atlanta and Phoenix. Year-over-year same store property operating expenses increased 4.6% for the second quarter of 2025 and 4.1% year-to-date as compared to the same periods in 2024. The increase was primarily driven by increases in marketing, repairs and maintenance, and property tax expense, partially offset by decreases in personnel and insurance costs. Investment and Disposition Activity During the second quarter, a joint venture between a subsidiary of NSA and a state pension fund advised by Heitman Capital Management, LLC (the "2023 Joint Venture") acquired one self storage property for approximately $18.0 million. The 2023 Joint Venture financed the acquisition with capital contributions from the venture members, of which NSA contributed approximately $4.5 million. During the second quarter, NSA invested $11.4 million in the acquisition of one wholly-owned self storage property and one annex to an existing property, consisting of approximately 87,000 rentable square feet configured in approximately 700 storage units. During the second quarter, NSA entered into an agreement to sell ten wholly-owned self storage properties consisting of approximately 663,000 rentable square feet configured in approximately 4,400 storage units for approximately $66.5 million, before disposition costs and credits. The agreement provides for separate disposition dates with eight self storage properties, consisting of approximately 580,000 rentable square feet configured in approximately 3,800 storage units for approximately $60.0 million, sold in June 2025, and two self storage properties, consisting of approximately 83,000 rentable square feet configured in approximately 600 storage units for approximately $6.5 million, sold in July 2025. NSA used the proceeds to pay down its revolving line of credit and for general corporate purposes. Balance Sheet As of June 30, 2025, NSA has approximately $544.1 million of available capacity on its $950.0 million revolving line of credit. Common Share Dividends On May 15, 2025, NSA's Board of Trustees declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.57 per common share. The second quarter 2025 dividend was paid on June 30, 2025 to shareholders of record as of June 13, 2025. 2025 Guidance The following table outlines NSA's updated and prior Core FFO guidance estimates and related assumptions for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Integration costs relate to expenses incurred as a part of the internalization of the PRO structure. (3) NSA combines OP units and DownREIT OP units with common shares because, after the applicable lock-out periods, OP units in the Company's operating partnership are redeemable for cash or, at NSA's option, exchangeable for common shares on a one-for-one basis and DownREIT OP units are also redeemable for cash or, at NSA's option, exchangeable for OP units in the Company's operating partnership on a one-for-one basis, subject to certain adjustments in each case. LTIP units may also, under certain circumstances, be convertible into or exchangeable for common shares (or other units that are convertible into or exchangeable for common shares). All subordinated performance units and DownREIT subordinated performance units were converted into OP units on July 1, 2024, in connection with the internalization of the PRO structure. See footnote(4) for additional discussion of subordinated performance units, DownREIT subordinated performance units, and LTIP units in the calculation of FFO and Core FFO per share and unit.

Diluted earnings per share is calculated using the two-class method for the company's restricted common shares and the treasury stock method for certain unvested LTIP units, and assumes the conversion of vested LTIP units into OP units on a one-for-one basis and the hypothetical conversion of subordinated performance units and DownREIT subordinated performance units into OP units, even though such units may have only been convertible into OP units (i) after a lock-out period and (ii) upon certain events or conditions. All outstanding subordinated performance units and DownREIT subordinated performance units were converted into OP units on July 1, 2024, in connection with the internalization of the PRO structure. The computation of weighted average shares and units for FFO and Core FFO per share and unit includes all restricted common shares and LTIP units that participate in distributions and excludes all subordinated performance units and DownREIT subordinated performance units because their effect has been accounted for through the allocation of FFO to the related unitholders based on distributions declared. (5) Represents the effect of adjusting the numerator to consolidated net income prior to GAAP allocations for noncontrolling interests, after deducting preferred share and unit distributions, and before the application of the two-class method and treasury stock method, as described in footnote(4).

Sun Communities Inc (NYSE:SUI) recorded impairment charges related to a strategic shift away from developing new greenfield projects. The UK portfolio faced increased expenses due to a national minimum wage increase, partially offsetting revenue gains.

A: Fernando Castro-Caratini, CFO, explained that there are no expected adverse tax impacts from releasing funds out of the 1031 exchanges.

The ground lease repurchases, totaling nearly $200 million, blend to about a 4.25% yield, enhancing strategic flexibility. Q: How are you managing the restructuring process and expense savings? A: John McLaren, President, highlighted that the company is focused on balancing expense discipline with top-line growth.

Positive Points Whitestone REIT (NYSE:WSR) reported a 5.4% year-over-year increase in core FFO per share, demonstrating strong financial performance. The company achieved a 100 basis point sequential increase in occupancy from Q1, reaching 93.9%. Whitestone REIT (NYSE:WSR) successfully executed two strategic acquisitions in high-growth markets, enhancing its portfolio. The company is on track to meet its 2025 full-year guidance, reaffirming its core FFO per share and same-store NOI growth targets. Whitestone REIT (NYSE:WSR) has a robust capital recycling program, with $153 million in acquisitions and $126 million in dispositions since Q4 2022, strengthening its portfolio. Negative Points Interest expenses have increased slightly due to acquisitions preceding dispositions, impacting financial performance. The anticipated benefits from new tenants like Pickler are expected to be minimal in the current year due to early concession periods. The company faces tough comparisons in the upcoming quarters, which may challenge its ability to meet forecasts. Whitestone REIT (NYSE:WSR) has a relatively high debt to EBITDA ratio, although it has improved from the previous year. The timing of acquisitions and dispositions may affect leverage and financial flexibility in the short term. Q & A Highlights Q: What gives you confidence in meeting your forecast for the back part of the year despite tough comps? A: David K. Holeman, CEO, explained that detailed forecasting and tenant activities, such as increasing occupancy by 100 basis points from Q1, contribute to future same-store NOI growth. Scott Hogan, CFO, added that large tenants under contract are in free rent periods, which will positively impact future quarters. Q: Will the Pickler contribute to the second half of the year's performance? A: David K. Holeman, CEO, stated that Pickler is expected to commence in the back half of the year, but early concession periods mean minimal impact on same-store NOI this year. However, future quarters will see significant contributions from such activities. Q: Can you provide more details on the $40 million of acquisitions and dispositions? A: David K. Holeman, CEO, mentioned that they are actively evaluating properties for value and opportunities. They have several activities underway and expect to achieve around $40 million in acquisitions and dispositions, continuing their strategy of upgrading the portfolio. Q: What is the upside potential in the two acquisitions announced in the second quarter? A: David K. Holeman, CEO, highlighted the quality of neighborhoods and locations for both acquisitions in Fort Worth and Austin. These areas have strong household incomes and traffic growth, with opportunities to improve rents and tenant mix, leveraging their model to enhance property value. Q: How are leasing spreads trending, and what are the expectations for the second half of the year? A: J. Scott Hogan, CFO, noted that new leases are coming in at higher rents, while renewal leasing spreads are slightly down but with lower tenant improvement and leasing commission costs. Overall, leasing spreads are expected to remain strong, with the second half typically being a stronger leasing season.

Essex Property Trust Inc (ESS) Q2 2025 Earnings Call Highlights: Strong Core FFO Performance ...
Core FFO Outperformance: $0.07 above guidance in Q2 2025. Blended Rate Growth: 3% for the same store portfolio in Q2 2025. Same-Property Revenue Growth: Increased midpoint by 15 basis points to 3.15% for the full year. Same-Property Expense Reduction: Midpoint reduced by 50 basis points to 3.25% due to lower property taxes. Same-Property NOI Growth: Expected to grow 3.1% at the midpoint, a 40 basis point improvement from original guidance. Core FFO Per Share Guidance: Increased by $0.10 to $15.91 for the full year. Q3 Core FFO Guidance: Forecasted at $3.94 at the midpoint. Net Debt to EBITDA: 5.5 times. Available Liquidity: $1.5 billion. Term Loan: $300 million issued, $150 million drawn at 4.1% fixed rate through April 2030. Line of Credit: Expanded to $1.5 billion, maturity extended to 2030. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 9 Warning Signs with ESS. Release Date: July 30, 2025 For the complete transcript of the earnings call, please refer to the full earnings call transcript. Positive Points Essex Property Trust Inc (NYSE:ESS) reported a $0.07 core FFO outperformance in the second quarter. The company increased its same property and core FFO guidance for the year. Suburban markets like San Mateo and San Jose showed strong performance with 5.6% and 4.4% blended rate growth, respectively. Essex Property Trust Inc (NYSE:ESS) has successfully invested in Northern California, achieving yields in the mid to high 4% range. The company has enhanced its balance sheet flexibility with a $300 million delayed draw term loan and expanded line of credit. Negative Points Los Angeles underperformed with only 1.3% blended rent growth due to elevated supply and delinquency challenges. Southern California, which constitutes 40% of the portfolio, has been a drag on overall performance. The company expects a sequential decline in core FFO for the third quarter due to elevated operating expenses. Essex Property Trust Inc (NYSE:ESS) is scaling back its mezzanine platform, which could lead to temporary headwinds in core FFO growth. The company anticipates a deceleration in blended rent growth in the second half of the year due to normal seasonality. Q & A Highlights Q: Can you elaborate on the weaker blended pricing in Los Angeles and any specific impacts like fire ordinances? A: Angela Kleiman, CEO, explained that Los Angeles underperformed due to heavier supply in the first half and slower delinquency recovery, not due to fire ordinances. The soft demand environment in Southern California, mirroring the US economy, also contributed. However, supply is expected to decline in the second half, which should be beneficial. Q: What is driving the strength in Northern California, and is it being fully appreciated? A: Angela Kleiman noted that Northern California is performing slightly better than expected, with job postings gradually increasing. The blended lease rates, when considering all leases, show a stronger performance than reported. The seasonal peak for rents has been reached, and normal deceleration is expected unless there's a significant macroeconomic improvement. Q: Why is Essex scaling back its mezzanine platform despite a successful track record? A: CFO Barbara Pak stated that the mezzanine book had grown too large, creating earnings volatility. The focus is shifting to stabilized multifamily assets for better cash flow and NAV growth. The structured finance book is expected to be less than 4% of core FFO, with a reduction in earnings headwind anticipated as investments are repaid. Q: How are concessions in Los Angeles affecting the market? A: Angela Kleiman mentioned that concessions in Los Angeles remain elevated compared to the rest of the portfolio, slightly higher than last year. However, they are not dramatically worsening or improving. Q: What are the capital allocation priorities for Essex, and how does the commercial paper program fit in? A: Rylan Burns, CIO, emphasized that fee simple acquisitions are a top priority due to current cost of capital and development risks. The commercial paper program offers a 70 basis point savings over the line of credit and will be used similarly as a temporary bridge to permanent financing.
