BUFFALO, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Life Storage, Inc. (NYSE:LSI), a leading national owner and operator of self-storage properties, reported operating results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021. All share and per share information has been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the January 2021 three-for-two stock split made in the form of a 50% stock dividend.
Highlights for the Fourth Quarter Included:
Highlights for the Full Year Included:
Joe Saffire, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We continued to successfully accelerate our growth in 2021. Each day our team executed to deliver exceptional results and I am very proud of what we accomplished together. We achieved record acquisition volume in 2021 as we closed $2.3 billion in wholly owned and joint venture acquisitions, adding 144 properties to our platform to be just under 1,100 properties. With a growing acquisition and a third-party management pipeline, we are well positioned to continue executing on our strategic initiatives to further grow shareholder value in 2022 and beyond.”
FINANCIAL RESULTS:
In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company generated net income attributable to common shareholders of $74.1 million or $0.90 per fully diluted common share, compared to net income attributable to common shareholders of $41.6 million, or $0.57 per fully diluted common share, in the fourth quarter of 2020.
For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company achieved $249.3 million of net income attributable to common shareholders, or $3.17 per fully diluted common share, as compared to $151.6 million, or $2.13 per fully diluted common share, for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Funds from operations for the quarter were $1.41 per fully diluted common share compared to $1.02 for the same period last year. Adjusted FFO per fully diluted common share for the quarter was $1.41 compared to $1.07 for the quarter ended December 31, 2020.
For the year ended December 31, 2021, FFO per fully diluted common share was $5.08 compared to $3.90 for the year ended December 31, 2020. Adjusted FFO per fully diluted common share for the year was $5.07 as compared to adjusted FFO for the year ended December 31, 2020 of $3.97.
Revenues for the 531 stabilized stores wholly owned by the Company since December 31, 2019 increased 16.9% in the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to the same quarter of 2020. The increase largely resulted from the net impact of a 110 basis point increase in average occupancy and the net impact of a 15.2% increase in realized rental rates.
Same store operating expenses increased 1.9% for the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to the prior year period, the result of increased marketing costs, office and other operating expenses, and repairs and maintenance. The increases were partially offset by decreases in real estate taxes, and payroll and benefits. Same store NOI increased 23.9% in the fourth quarter of 2021 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2020.
During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company achieved double digit same store revenue growth in each of its 31 major markets. Overall, the markets with the strongest positive revenue impact were Austin, TX; Las Vegas, NV; Buffalo-Upstate, NY and various Florida Markets.

The Company’s 2022 same store pool consists of the 581 stabilized stores wholly owned since December 31, 2020. 38 of the stores purchased through December 31, 2021 at certificate of occupancy or that were in the early stages of lease-up are not included, regardless of their current occupancies. The Company believes that occupancy levels achieved during the lease-up period, using discounted rates, are not truly indicative of a new store’s performance, and therefore do not result in a meaningful year-over-year comparison in future years. The Company will include such stores in its same store pool in the second year after the stores achieve 80% sustained occupancy using market rates and incentives.

(1) We believe that Funds from Operations (“FFO”) provides relevant and meaningful information about our operating performance that is necessary, along with net earnings and cash flows, for an understanding of our operating results. FFO adds back historical cost depreciation, which assumes the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably in the future. In fact, real estate asset values increase or decrease with market conditions. Consequently, we believe FFO is a useful supplemental measure in evaluating our operating performance by disregarding (or adding back) historical cost depreciation. |
Funds from operations is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“NAREIT”) as net income available to common shareholders computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), excluding gains or losses on sales of properties, plus impairment of real estate assets, plus depreciation and amortization and after adjustments to record unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures on the same basis. We believe that to further understand our performance, FFO should be compared with our reported net income and cash flows in accordance with GAAP, as presented in our consolidated financial statements. |
Our computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs or real estate companies that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of our performance, as an alternative to net cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our liquidity, or as an indicator of our ability to make cash distributions. |
(2) Net operating income or "NOI" is a non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) financial measure that we define as total continuing revenues less continuing property operating expenses. NOI also can be calculated by adding back to net income: interest expense, impairment and casualty losses, operating lease expenses, depreciation and amortization expense, any losses on sale of real estate, acquisition related costs, general and administrative expense, and deducting from net income: income from discontinued operations, interest income, any gains on sale of real estate, and equity in income of joint ventures. We believe that NOI is a meaningful measure to investors in evaluating our operating performance, because we utilize NOI in making decisions with respect to capital allocations, in determining current property values, and in comparing period-to-period and market-to-market property operating results. Additionally, NOI is widely used in the real estate industry and the self-storage industry to measure the performance and value of real estate assets without regard to various items included in net income that do not relate to or are not indicative of operating performance, such as depreciation and amortization, which can vary depending on accounting methods and book value of assets. NOI should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP, such as total revenues, operating income and net income. |
(3) Includes the stores owned and/or managed by the Company for the entire periods presented that are consolidated in our financial statements. Does not include unconsolidated joint ventures or other stores managed by the Company. |
(4) Revenues and expenses do not include items related to tenant reinsurance. |
(5) Does not include unconsolidated joint venture stores or other stores managed by the Company. |
(6) Other administrative expenses include office rent, travel expense, investor relations and miscellaneous other expenses. |

Компания включит такие магазины в свой пул магазинов через второй год после того, как магазины достигнут 80% устойчивой загрузки с использованием рыночных ставок и льгот.

(1) We believe that Funds from Operations (“FFO”) provides relevant and meaningful information about our operating performance that is necessary, along with net earnings and cash flows, for an understanding of our operating results. FFO adds back historical cost depreciation, which assumes the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably in the future. In fact, real estate asset values increase or decrease with market conditions. Consequently, we believe FFO is a useful supplemental measure in evaluating our operating performance by disregarding (or adding back) historical cost depreciation. |
Funds from operations is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“NAREIT”) as net income available to common shareholders computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), excluding gains or losses on sales of properties, plus impairment of real estate assets, plus depreciation and amortization and after adjustments to record unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures on the same basis. We believe that to further understand our performance, FFO should be compared with our reported net income and cash flows in accordance with GAAP, as presented in our consolidated financial statements. |
Our computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs or real estate companies that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of our performance, as an alternative to net cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our liquidity, or as an indicator of our ability to make cash distributions. |
(2) Net operating income or "NOI" is a non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) financial measure that we define as total continuing revenues less continuing property operating expenses. NOI also can be calculated by adding back to net income: interest expense, impairment and casualty losses, operating lease expenses, depreciation and amortization expense, any losses on sale of real estate, acquisition related costs, general and administrative expense, and deducting from net income: income from discontinued operations, interest income, any gains on sale of real estate, and equity in income of joint ventures. We believe that NOI is a meaningful measure to investors in evaluating our operating performance, because we utilize NOI in making decisions with respect to capital allocations, in determining current property values, and in comparing period-to-period and market-to-market property operating results. Additionally, NOI is widely used in the real estate industry and the self-storage industry to measure the performance and value of real estate assets without regard to various items included in net income that do not relate to or are not indicative of operating performance, such as depreciation and amortization, which can vary depending on accounting methods and book value of assets. NOI should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP, such as total revenues, operating income and net income. |
(3) Includes the stores owned and/or managed by the Company for the entire periods presented that are consolidated in our financial statements. Does not include unconsolidated joint ventures or other stores managed by the Company. |
(4) Revenues and expenses do not include items related to tenant reinsurance. |
(5) Does not include unconsolidated joint venture stores or other stores managed by the Company. |
(6) Other administrative expenses include office rent, travel expense, investor relations and miscellaneous other expenses. |
