Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

(unaudited)

 

1. Organization and Description of Business

 

STAG Industrial, Inc. (the “Company”) is an industrial real estate operating company focused on the acquisition and management of single-tenant industrial properties throughout the United States. The Company was formed as a Maryland corporation on July 21, 2010 and has elected to be treated as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Company intends to continue to qualify as a REIT.  The Company is structured as an umbrella partnership REIT, commonly called an UPREIT, and owns substantially all of its assets and conducts substantially all of its business through its operating partnership, STAG Industrial Operating Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”). As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company owned a 95.87% and 86.65%, respectively, limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership.  As used herein, the “Company” refers to STAG Industrial, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries and partnerships except where context otherwise requires.

 

As of September 30, 2014, the Company owned 238 buildings in 35 states with approximately 44.5 million square feet, consisting of 168 warehouse/distribution buildings, 50 light manufacturing buildings and 20 flex/office buildings.  The Company also owned two vacant land parcels adjacent to two of the Company’s buildings.  The Company’s buildings were 94.8% leased to 212 tenants as of September 30, 2014.

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Interim Financial Information

 

The accompanying interim financial statements have been presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X for interim financial information.  Accordingly, these statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring items, necessary for their fair presentation in conformity with GAAP.  Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The year-end consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Operating Partnership and their subsidiaries. The equity interests of other limited partners in the Operating Partnership held in the form of common units (“Noncontrolling Common Units”) are reflected as noncontrolling interest.  The equity interests of the Company along with the Noncontrolling Common Units in the Operating Partnership are common units (“Common Units”).  All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation of entities. The financial statements of the Company are presented on a consolidated basis, for all periods presented.

 

Reclassifications and New Accounting Pronouncements

 

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

 

In August of 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an

8


 

Table of Contents

Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (“ASU 2014-15”). ASU 2014-15 requires management to evaluate whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, and to provide certain disclosures when it is probable that the entity will be unable to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. ASU 2014-15 is effective for the annual period ended December 31, 2016 and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU 2014-15 is not expected to materially impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”).  ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model requiring a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount reflecting the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue from a lease contract with a tenant is not within the scope of this revenue standard. In adopting ASU 2014-09, companies may use either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach. Additionally, this guidance requires improved disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers.  ASU 2014-09 is effective for the first interim period within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

 

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, which prospectively changed the definition of a discontinued operation to the disposal of a component or group of components that is disposed of or is classified as held for sale and represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results.  The guidance also provides for additional disclosure requirements in connection with both discontinued operations and other dispositions not qualifying as discontinued operations.  While the new guidance is not effective until annual periods beginning December 15, 2014, and interim periods within those years, companies are permitted to early adopt the provision.  The Company has elected to early adopt this standard effective with the interim period beginning January 1, 2014.  Prior to January 1, 2014, properties identified as held for sale and/or disposed of were presented in discontinued operations for all periods presented.

 

Tenant Accounts Receivable, net

 

Tenant accounts receivable, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, includes both tenant accounts receivable, net and accrued rental income, net. The Company provides an allowance for estimated losses on the portion of tenant accounts receivable that is estimated to be uncollectible. As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had an allowance for estimated losses on tenants account receivables of $64,000 and $19,000, respectively.

 

The Company accrues rental revenue earned, but not yet receivable, in accordance with GAAP. As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had accrued rental revenue of $11.8 million and $9.3 million, respectively. The Company maintains an allowance for estimated losses that may result from those revenues. If a tenant fails to make contractual payments beyond any allowance, the Company may recognize additional bad debt expense in future periods equal to the amount of unpaid rent and accrued rental revenue. As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had an allowance for estimated losses on accrued rental revenue of $0 and $0, respectively.

 

As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had a total of approximately $5.3 million and $4.9 million, respectively, of total lease security deposits available in existing letters of credit, which are not reflected on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets; and $3.3 million and $3.0 million, respectively, of lease security deposits available in cash.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

By the terms of their leases, certain tenants are obligated to pay directly certain of the costs of their buildings including insurance, real estate taxes, ground lease payments, and other costs that are not reflected on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. To the extent any tenant responsible for these costs under its lease defaults on its lease or it is deemed probable that the tenant will fail to pay for such costs, the Company will record a liability for such obligations.   The Company estimates that real estate taxes, which are the responsibility of these certain tenants, were approximately $2.6

million, $7.6 million, $2.4 million, and $7.0 million the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and September 30, 2013, respectively. This would have been the liability of the Company had the tenants not met their contractual obligations. The Company does not recognize recovery revenue related to leases where the tenant has assumed the cost for real estate taxes, insurance, ground lease payments and certain other expenses.

 

Taxes

 

As a REIT, the Company is required to distribute at least 90% of its REIT taxable income to its stockholders and meet the various other requirements imposed by the Code relating to such matters as income, assets, distribution levels and ownership. The Company is generally not subject to corporate level income tax on the earnings distributed to its stockholders that it derives from its REIT qualifying activities. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT, and is unable to avail itself of certain savings provisions set forth in the Code, all of the Company’s taxable income would be subject to federal income tax at regular corporate rates, including any applicable alternative minimum tax.

 

The Company will not be required to make distributions with respect to income derived from the activities conducted through subsidiaries that the Company elects to treat as taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRS”) for federal income tax purposes. Certain activities exceeding defined thresholds that the Company undertakes must be conducted by a TRS, such as performing non-customary services for its tenants and holding assets that it cannot hold directly. A TRS is subject to federal and state income taxes.  The Company’s TRS did not have any activity during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and September 30, 2013.

 

The Company and certain of its subsidiaries are subject to certain state and local income, excise and franchise taxes. Taxes in the amount of $0.2 million, $0.4 million, $0.1 million, and $0.3 million have been recorded in other expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and September 30, 2013, respectively.

 

Tax benefits of uncertain tax positions are recognized only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained based solely on its technical merits, with the taxing authority having full knowledge of all relevant information. The measurement of a tax benefit for an uncertain tax position that meets the “more likely than not” threshold is based on a cumulative probability model under which the largest amount of tax benefit recognized is the amount with a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the taxing authority having full knowledge of all the relevant information.  As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, there were no liabilities for uncertain tax positions.
