Current report

•We issued approximately 110,000 common shares for gross consideration of $7.7 million, or $7.6 million, net of commissions, and an average gross price of $69.82 per share under our at-the-market offering program (the “ATM Program”).

Current report

Revenue from same-store communities increased 3.5% or $4.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was attributable to 3.6% growth in average monthly revenue per occupied home for the six months ended June 30, 2024 offset by a decrease of 0.1% in occupancy as weighted average occupancy decreased from 95.0% in the six months ended June 30, 2023 to 94.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Property operating expenses, including real estate taxes, at same-store communities increased by 1.4% or $658,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the same period in the prior year. At same-store communities, controllable expenses (which exclude insurance and real estate taxes) increased by $587,000, primarily due to increased compensation costs, repair and maintenance, and administrative and marketing expense, offset by lower utilities costs. Non-controllable expenses at same-store communities increased by $71,000, due to increased insurance premiums, offset by lower real estate taxes from successful real estate tax appeals. Same-store NOI increased by $3.5 million to $75.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $72.2 million in the same period of the prior year.

Current report

General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses were comparable at $4.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. Compensation costs and consulting fees increased in the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period of the prior year. These increases were offset by lower legal expenses in the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period of the prior year due to a litigation settlement in the prior year that did not occur in the current quarter.

Current report

Loss on Litigation Settlement. There was no loss on litigation settlement in the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to a $2.9 million loss on litigation settlement for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 due to a trial judgment against Centerspace for property damage and monetary losses to a neighboring property in the prior year that did not occur in the current year. Refer to Note 10 in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Current report

Interest expense. Interest expense increased by 8.0% to $9.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $8.6 million in the same period of the prior year, primarily due to a higher mortgage interest resulting from the assumption of a mortgage in connection with an acquisition in the fourth quarter of the prior year.

Current report

Interest and other income increased to $817,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $344,000 in the same period of the prior year. The increase was primarily due to interest income on a note receivable in the in the current period that did not exist in the same period of the prior year, offset by a decrease from interest received on escrow funds in the prior year that did not occur in the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Current report

Net loss available to common shareholders decreased to $8.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to a net income of $38.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Current report

FFO applicable to common shares and Units for the six months ended June 30, 2024, increased to $43.0 million compared to $36.4 million for the comparable period of the prior year, representing an increase of 18.2%. This FFO increase was primarily due to increased NOI from same-store communities and non-same-store communities, and decreases in general and administrative expense related to the departure of Mark Decker, former CEO, and a litigation settlement in the prior year that did not occur in the current year, offset by decreased NOI from dispositions and an increase in casualty loss.

See the description of Core FFO on page 25 and the reconciliation of net income (loss) available to common shareholders to FFO and Core FFO on page 26. This increase was primarily due to increased NOI from same-store and non-same-store communities and expense savings in property management and interest expense, offset by decreased NOI from dispositions.

Current wording

•Non-GAAP Core Funds from Operations (“Core FFO”) applicable to common shares and Units for the three months ended June 30, 2024 decreased by $502,000 or 2.2% to $22.8 million compared to $23.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

Previous wording

Net operating income (“NOI”) is a non-GAAP financial measure, which we define as total real estate revenues less property operating expenses, including real estate taxes and is reconciled to operating income below. We believe that NOI is an important supplemental measure of operating performance for real estate because it provides a measure of operations that is unaffected by sales of real estate and other investments, impairment, depreciation, amortization, financing costs, property management expenses, casualty losses, and general and administrative expenses. NOI does not represent cash generated by operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income (loss), net income (loss) available for common shareholders, or cash flow from operating activities as a measure of financial performance.

Previous wording

We have provided certain information on a same-store and non-same-store basis. Same-store apartment communities are owned or in service for substantially all of the periods being compared, and, in the case of newly-constructed properties, have achieved a target level of physical occupancy of 90%. On the first day of each calendar year, we determine the composition of our same-store pool for that year as well as adjust the previous year, which allows us to evaluate the performance of existing apartment communities and their contribution to net income. We believe that measuring performance on a same-store basis is useful to investors because it enables evaluation of how a fixed pool of communities are performing year-over-year. We use this measure to assess whether or not we have been successful in increasing NOI, raising average rental revenue, renewing the leases with existing residents, controlling operating costs, and making prudent capital improvements. The discussion below focuses on the main factors affecting real estate revenue and expenses from same-store apartment communities because changes from one year to another in real estate revenue and expenses from non-same-store apartment communities are generally due to the addition of those properties to the real estate portfolio, and accordingly provide less useful information for evaluating ongoing operational performance of the real estate portfolio.

Previous wording

While FFO is widely used by us as a primary performance metric, not all real estate companies use the same definition of FFO or calculate FFO the same way. Accordingly, FFO presented here is not necessarily comparable to FFO presented by other real estate companies. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other GAAP measurement of performance, but rather should be considered as an additional, supplemental measure. FFO also does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund all cash flow needs, including our ability to service indebtedness or make distributions to shareholders.

Core FFO also does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund all cash flow needs, including the ability to service indebtedness or make distributions to shareholders. Core FFO is a non-GAAP and non-standardized financial measure that may be calculated differently by other REITs and that should not be considered a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP.

Net loss available to common shareholders for the three months ended March 31, 2024, decreased to a net loss of $5.5 million compared to a net income of $42.0 million for the same period of the prior year. FFO applicable to common shares and Units for the three months ended March 31, 2024, increased to $20.9 million compared to $16.3 million for the comparable period of the prior year, an increase of 28.5%. This increase was primarily due to increased NOI from same-store communities and non-same-store communities, and decreases in property management and general and administrative expenses and interest expense, offset by decreased NOI from dispositions.
