Key Financial Metrics

Material Changes vs. Prior Period

• Net Income Decline: Net income attributable to common shareholders decreased by $45.1 million (53.7%) compared to Q1 2024. This decrease is primarily attributable to a $43.8 million gain on the sale of an operating property recognized in Q1 2024, which did not recur in 2025.
• Revenue Growth: Property revenues increased by $7.4 million (1.9%). Same-store property revenues grew 0.8% driven by higher occupancy and utility rebilling income.
• NOI Expansion: Total property NOI increased by $6.5 million (2.7%). Same-store NOI rose 0.9%, while non-same-store and development NOI contributed $4.2 million in growth due to recent acquisitions and lease-up activity.
• Acquisitions: The company acquired two operating properties in Q1 2025 (Austin, TX and Nashville, TN) for a combined cost of approximately $199 million. No acquisitions were made in Q1 2024.
• Debt Structure: Total debt increased by $250 million. The company established a Commercial Paper Program in February 2025, with $425.8 million outstanding as of March 31, 2025. This replaced some borrowings from the unsecured revolving credit facility.

Guidance, Outlook, and Risks

• Outlook: Management expects new multifamily supply to remain elevated through 2026 but anticipates continued demand to absorb deliveries. The company intends to maintain a strong balance sheet and pursue selective acquisitions and dispositions.
• Liquidity: The company maintains approximately $1.2 billion available under its unsecured revolving credit facility and has up to $500 million remaining under its 2023 At-The-Market (ATM) equity program. Scheduled debt maturities over the next 12 months total $437.7 million, primarily consisting of commercial paper notes.
• Dividends: A quarterly dividend of $1.05 per share was declared in February 2025. The annualized dividend rate is $4.20 per share.
• Development Pipeline: There are four properties under construction with an estimated additional cost to complete of $350.7 million.
• Risks and Contingencies:
  • RealPage Litigation: The company is a defendant in multiple consolidated lawsuits alleging antitrust violations related to the use of RealPage, Inc. revenue management software. Management believes the claims are without merit but notes the outcome is unpredictable.
  • Interest Rate Risk: Approximately 26% of the debt portfolio is floating rate. Rising rates could increase borrowing costs.
  • Market Conditions: Volatility in capital markets and changes in rent control laws could adversely impact operations.

Investor Verification Checklist

• Gain on Sale Impact: Verify the non-recurring nature of the Q1 2024 gain on sale ($43.8M) to accurately assess year-over-year operational performance.
• Commercial Paper Usage: Monitor the utilization of the new $600M commercial paper program and its impact on short-term liquidity and interest expense.
• Development Costs: Track the $350.7M estimated cost to complete current construction projects against actual cash outflows.
• RealPage Litigation Status: Review updates on the antitrust lawsuits involving RealPage, Inc., as a negative outcome could result in significant financial liability.
• Same-Store Metrics: Analyze the 0.8% same-store revenue growth and 0.9% same-store NOI growth to gauge organic portfolio performance excluding acquisitions and developments.
