“Essex posted solid results in 2022, exceeding our expectations and continuing our recovery from the severe economic disruption from the COVID-19 pandemic. Strong job growth on the West Coast contributed to our positive results, driving demand in support of one of the largest increases to Core FFO in the Company’s history. The West Coast housing markets will soon be fully recovered from debilitating regulations established in the initial phases of the COVID-19 pandemic, setting the stage for results that are more consistent with our long-term track record of outperformance”, stated Michael J. Schall, President and CEO. Mr. Schall continued, “In connection with my planned retirement as CEO, I am highly confident that the Company’s culture of disciplined capital allocation and value creation is in capable hands with Angela Kleiman and her leadership team, which I believe will drive shareholder returns for many years to come.”

Commentary

Net Delinquency(1)

($0.18)

($0.12)

Anticipated to be worse in 2023 due to majority of government reimbursements processed in 2022 and uncertainty regarding timing of evictions in Los Angeles. Net delinquency is forecasted to reduce same-property revenue growth by 70 basis points in 2023. The Company has cumulative uncollected cash delinquencies of $89.9M since the start of COVID which it continues to work to collect.

Total Interest Expense

(at Pro Rata)

 

($0.32)

($0.02)

Attributed to increases in short-term interest rates by the Federal Reserve and higher borrowing costs on refinancing. Essex has low variable rate exposure with approximately 4% on a consolidated basis and approximately 8% including its pro rata share in co-investments.

Structured Finance Income

($0.07)

($0.03)

Due to the timing of redemptions in the fourth quarter of 2022 as well as a preferred equity investment in Oakland for which the Company is no longer accruing income. The remainder of the Company's structured finance portfolio continues to perform as expected.

FFO RECONCILIATION

FFO, as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), is generally considered by industry analysts as an appropriate measure of performance of an equity REIT. Generally, FFO adjusts the net income of equity REITs for non-cash charges such as depreciation and amortization of rental properties, impairment charges, gains on sales of real estate and extraordinary items. Management considers FFO and FFO which excludes non-core items, which is referred to as “Core FFO,” to be useful supplemental operating performance measures of an equity REIT because, together with net income and cash flows, FFO and Core FFO provide investors with additional bases to evaluate the operating performance and ability of a REIT to incur and service debt and to fund acquisitions and other capital expenditures and to pay dividends. By excluding gains or losses related to sales of depreciated operating properties and excluding real estate depreciation (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates), FFO can help investors compare the operating performance of a real estate company between periods or as compared to different companies. By further adjusting for items that are not considered part of the Company’s core business operations, Core FFO allows investors to compare the core operating performance of the Company to its performance in prior reporting periods and to the operating performance of other real estate companies without the effect of items that by their nature are not comparable from period to period and tend to obscure the Company’s actual operating results. FFO and Core FFO do not represent net income or cash flows from operations as defined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and are not intended to indicate whether cash flows will be sufficient to fund cash needs. These measures should not be considered as alternatives to net income as an indicator of the REIT's operating performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. FFO and Core FFO do not measure whether cash flow is sufficient to fund all cash needs including principal amortization, capital improvements and distributions to stockholders. FFO and Core FFO also do not represent cash flows generated from operating, investing or financing activities as defined under GAAP. Management has consistently applied the NAREIT definition of FFO to all periods presented. However, there is judgment involved and other REITs’ calculation of FFO may vary from the NAREIT definition for this measure, and thus their disclosures of FFO may not be comparable to the Company’s calculation.

The following table sets forth the Company’s calculation of diluted FFO and Core FFO for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands, except for share and per share amounts):

NET OPERATING INCOME (“NOI”) AND SAME-PROPERTY NOI RECONCILIATIONS

NOI and Same-Property NOI are considered by management to be important supplemental performance measures to earnings from operations included in the Company’s consolidated statements of income. The presentation of same-property NOI assists with the presentation of the Company’s operations prior to the allocation of depreciation and any corporate-level or financing-related costs. NOI reflects the operating performance of a community and allows for an easy comparison of the operating performance of individual communities or groups of communities. In addition, because prospective buyers of real estate have different financing and overhead structures, with varying marginal impacts to overhead by acquiring real estate, NOI is considered by many in the real estate industry to be a useful measure for determining the value of a real estate asset or group of assets. The Company defines same-property NOI as same-property revenues less same-property operating expenses, including property taxes. Please see the reconciliation of earnings from operations to NOI and same-property NOI, which in the table below is the NOI for stabilized properties consolidated by the Company for the periods presented (dollars in thousands):
