Previous wording

Tenant demand remains healthy within our portfolio, which is strategically located within prime infill Southern California industrial markets. The quality and intensity of tenant demand through the first quarter of 2024 is demonstrated through the Company’s strong leasing spreads and volume and retention rate (see “—Leasing Activity and Rental Rates” below). This tenant demand has been driven by a wide range of sectors, from consumer products, healthcare and medical products to aerospace, food, construction and logistics, as well as by an emerging electric vehicle industry, among other sectors. We also continue to observe a notable volume of ecommerce-oriented tenants securing space within our infill property locations driven in part by delivery demand associated with last-mile distribution and local omnichannel retail fulfillment which are driving discernible shifts in inventory-handling strategies among retailers and distributors. Our portfolio, which we believe represents prime locations with superior functionality within the largest last-mile logistics distribution market in the nation, is well-positioned to continue to serve our existing diverse tenant base and attract incremental ecommerce-oriented and traditional distribution demand over the long-term.

We believe our portfolio’s leasing performance during the first quarter of 2024 has generally outpaced that of the infill markets within which we operate, and, as discussed in more detail below, our target infill markets continue to operate at high levels of occupancy. We believe this performance has been driven by our highly entrepreneurial business model focused on acquiring and improving industrial property in superior locations so that our portfolio reflects a higher level of quality and functionality, on average, as compared to typical available product within the markets within which we operate. We believe that our portfolio, with last-mile infill locations and a smaller average tenant size versus other non-infill competitors, is well positioned to serve regional consumption and less susceptible to changes in global trade flows. We also believe the quality and entrepreneurial approach demonstrated by our team of real estate professionals actively managing our properties and our tenants enables the potential to outcompete within our markets that we believe are generally otherwise owned by more passive, less-focused real estate owners.

As of March 31, 2024, 28 of our properties were under current repositioning or redevelopment and seven of our properties were in the lease-up stage.

Properties that are nonoperational as a result of repositioning or redevelopment activity may qualify for varying levels of interest, insurance and real estate tax capitalization during the redevelopment and construction period.

In March 2024, the lease was extended through January 2027 at the current in-place rent at the time of execution and includes a 4% contractual rent increase in 2026 and two months of rent abatement. This lease extension was excluded for comparability purposes, in order to allow investors to make investment decisions based on our quarterly leasing statistics as compared to our prior periods.

Previous wording

Our leasing activity is impacted both by our repositioning and redevelopment efforts, as well as by market conditions. While we reposition a property, its space may become unavailable for leasing until completion of our repositioning efforts. As of March 31, 2024, we have 28 current repositioning/redevelopment projects with estimated construction completion periods ranging from the second quarter of 2024 through the fourth quarter of 2025, and an additional nine repositioning and redevelopment projects in our pipeline with estimated construction completion dates through the third quarter of 2026. We expect these properties to have positive impacts on our leasing activity and revenue generation as we complete our value-add plans and place these properties in service.

Previous wording

(5)Represents vacant space (not under repositioning/redevelopment) as of March 31, 2024. Includes leases aggregating 425,142 rentable square feet that had been signed but had not yet commenced as of March 31, 2024.

Current wording

(5)Represents vacant space (not under repositioning/redevelopment) as of June 30, 2024. Includes leases aggregating 66,236 rentable square feet that had been signed but had not yet commenced as of June 30, 2024.

Previous wording

As of March 31, 2024, in addition to 1.5 million rentable square feet of currently available space in our portfolio and approximately 2.1 million rentable square feet of vacant space under current repositioning, leases representing 9.7% and 14.4% of the aggregate rentable square footage of our portfolio are scheduled to expire during the remainder of 2024 and 2025, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we renewed 64 leases for 2.4 million rentable square feet, resulting in a retention rate of 82.2%. Our retention rate during the period was impacted by the combination of low vacancy and healthy demand in many of our key markets. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, new and renewal leases had a weighted average term of 4.2 and 4.1 years (excluding the 1.1 million square foot lease extension noted above under “—Leasing Activity and Rental Rates”), and we expect future new and renewal leases to have similar terms.

Current wording

As of June 30, 2024, in addition to 1.0 million rentable square feet of currently available space in our portfolio and approximately 2.1 million rentable square feet of vacant space under current repositioning, leases representing 6.4% and 14.3% of the aggregate rentable square footage of our portfolio are scheduled to expire during the remainder of 2024 and 2025, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we renewed 133 leases for 3.6 million rentable square feet, resulting in a retention rate of 76.8%. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, new and renewal leases had a weighted average term of 4.7 and 4.3 years (excluding the 1.1 million square foot lease extension noted above under “—Leasing Activity and Rental Rates”), and we expect future new and renewal leases to have similar terms.

Previous wording

The leases scheduled to expire during the remainder of 2024 and 2025 represent approximately 9.4% and 14.0%, respectively, of the total annualized base rent for our portfolio as of March 31, 2024. We estimate that, on a weighted average basis, in-place rents of leases scheduled to expire during the remainder of 2024 and 2025 are currently below current market asking rates, although individual units or properties within any particular submarket may currently be leased either above, below, or at the current market asking rates within that submarket.

Previous wording

As of March 31, 2024, our Operating Partnership indirectly and wholly owns Rexford Industrial Realty and Management, Inc., which we refer to as our services company. We have elected, together with our services company, to treat our services company as a taxable REIT subsidiary for federal income tax purposes. A taxable REIT subsidiary generally may provide non-customary and other services to our tenants and engage in activities that we or our subsidiaries (other than a taxable REIT subsidiary) may not engage in directly without adversely affecting our qualification as a REIT, provided a taxable REIT subsidiary may not operate or manage a lodging facility or health care facility or provide rights to any brand name under which any lodging facility or health care facility is operated. We may form additional taxable REIT subsidiaries in the future, and our Operating Partnership may contribute some or all of its interests in certain wholly owned subsidiaries or their assets to our services company. Any income earned by our taxable REIT subsidiaries will not be included in our taxable income for purposes of the 75% or 95% gross income tests, except to the extent such income is distributed to us as a dividend, in which case such dividend income will qualify under the 95%, but not the 75%, gross income test. Because a taxable REIT subsidiary is subject to federal income tax, and state and local income tax (where applicable) as a regular corporation, the income earned by our taxable REIT subsidiaries generally will be subject to an additional level of tax as compared to the income earned by our other subsidiaries. Our taxable REIT subsidiary is a C-corporation subject to federal and state income tax. However, it has a cumulative unrecognized net operation loss carryforward and therefore there is no income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. Additionally, the taxable REIT subsidiary had minimal activity during these periods.
