PHILADELPHIA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct 26, 2022--
Independence Realty Trust, Inc. (“IRT”) (NYSE: IRT), a multifamily apartment REIT, today announced its third quarter 2022 financial results.
Third Quarter Highlights
Included later in this press release are definitions of NOI, CFFO, Adjusted EBITDA and other Non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations of such measures to their most comparable financial measures as calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.
Management Commentary
“We delivered double-digit revenue and NOI growth in the third quarter, as our portfolio of assets in attractive markets continued to exhibit strong fundamentals,” said Scott Schaeffer, Chairman and CEO of IRT. “Our combined same-store portfolio NOI increased by 11.5%, led by blended lease over lease rental growth of 12.7%. We are seeing increasing occupancy levels at our non-value add communities in our fourth quarter-to-date and as a result of our positive year-to-date operating performance, are maintaining our full year NOI and increasing our Core FFO per share growth guidance. Looking into 2023, we continue to believe that IRT is well-positioned in the multifamily sector and will maintain a disciplined approach in growing our business while increasing shareholder value.”

See the Value Add Summary page of our supplemental for additional information on our projects life to date as of September 30, 2022.
We announced that 10 additional properties have been added to our value add program with renovations expected to begin in Q4 2022. The ten properties are comprised of 3,350 units and we expect to achieve returns on investment at these properties consistent with prior value add projects.
Investment Activity
Held for Sale
As of September 30, 2022, in connection with our ongoing capital recycling program, we had two properties, Meadows Apartments in Louisville, KY and Sycamore Terrace in Terre Haute, IN, classified as held for sale. We expect both dispositions to close in the fourth quarter of 2022 for an aggregate sales price of $103 million. The proceeds from the dispositions will be used to reduce indebtedness incurred in connection with the acquisition of two properties, as discussed below.
Acquisitions and Joint Ventures
Capital Expenditures
For the three months ended September 30, 2022, recurring capital expenditures for the total portfolio were $8.7 million, or $242 per unit. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, recurring capital expenditures for the total portfolio were $19.7 million, or $556 per unit.
Capital Markets
At-the-Market Offering
On November 13, 2020 we entered into an equity distribution agreement pursuant to which we may from time to time offer and sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $150 million (the “ATM Program”) in negotiated transactions or transactions that are deemed to be “at the market” offerings. Under the ATM Program, we may also enter into one or more forward sale transactions for the sale of shares of our common stock on a forward basis.
No forward sale transactions under the ATM Program were entered into during the three months ended September 30, 2022. On September 28, 2022, we physically settled in full 2,000,000 shares that were previously sold on a forward basis under the ATM Program. The forward shares were settled at the current weighted average sales price of $24.97 per share and IRT received proceeds, net of sales commissions of approximately $49.9 million.
Dividend Distribution
On September 12, 2022, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.14 per share of our common stock, which was paid on October 21, 2022 to stockholders of record at the close of business on September 30, 2022.
2022 EPS and CFFO Guidance
We increased our EPS and CFFO per share and maintained our same-store NOI targets. Earnings per diluted share is projected to be in the range of $0.49 to $0.50. A reconciliation of IRT's projected net income allocable to common shares to its projected CFFO per share is included below. See the schedules and definitions at the end of this release for further information regarding how IRT calculates CFFO and for management’s definition and rationale for the usefulness of CFFO.

Our guidance is based on the key guidance assumptions detailed below. | |
(2) | Per share guidance is based on 228.0 million weighted average shares and units outstanding. | |
(3) | Depreciation and amortization includes $53.3 million ($0.23 per share) of amortization related to STAR in-place lease intangibles that are a result of GAAP purchase accounting. These intangibles were fully amortized as of September 30, 2022. | |

2022 Guidance Assumptions
Our key guidance assumptions for 2022 are enumerated below. See definitions at the end of this release for further information regarding our same-store definitions.
Combined Same-Store Portfolio | Previous 2022 Outlook | Current 2022 Outlook (1) | Change at Midpoint |

Development | $65.0 to $75.0 million | $65.0 to $75.0 million | $— |
(1) | This guidance, including the underlying assumptions, constitutes forward-looking information. Actual results could vary significantly from the projections presented. See “Forward-Looking Statements” below. | |
(2) | Interest expense includes amortization of deferred financing costs but excludes loan premium accretion, net. As a result of purchase accounting, we recorded a $72.1 million loan premium, net, related to STAR debt. This loan premium will be accreted into and reduce GAAP interest expense over the remaining term of the associated debt. However, loan premium accretion will be excluded from CFFO. | |
(3) | We continue to evaluate our portfolio for capital recycling opportunities so actual acquisitions and dispositions could vary significantly from our projections. We undertake no duty to update these assumptions. See “Forward-Looking Statements” below. |

Schedule V
Independence Realty Trust, Inc.
Definitions
Average Effective Monthly Rent per Unit
Average effective rent per unit represents the average of gross rent amounts, divided by the average occupancy (in units) for the period presented. We believe average effective rent is a helpful measurement in evaluating average pricing. This metric, when presented, reflects the average effective rent per month.
Average Occupancy
Average occupancy represents the average occupied units for the reporting period divided by the average of total units available for rent for the reporting period.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
Each of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. EBITDA is defined as net income before interest expense including amortization of deferred financing costs, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization expenses. Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA before certain other non-cash or non-operating gains or losses related to items such as asset sales, debt extinguishments and acquisition related debt extinguishment expenses, casualty (gains) losses, merger and integration costs, and income (loss) from investments in unconsolidated real estate entities. We consider each of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to be an appropriate supplemental measure of performance because it eliminates interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and other non-cash or non-operating gains and losses, which permits investors to view income from operations without these non-cash or non-operating items. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA differs from the methodology used for calculating Adjusted EBITDA by certain other REITs and, accordingly, our Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to Adjusted EBITDA reported by other REITs.
Funds From Operations (“FFO”) and Core Funds From Operations (“CFFO”)
We believe that FFO and Core FFO (“CFFO”), each of which is a non-GAAP financial measure, are additional appropriate measures of the operating performance of a REIT and us in particular. We compute FFO in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), as net income or loss allocated to common shares (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding real estate-related depreciation and amortization expense, gains or losses on sales of real estate and the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles. While our calculation of FFO is in accordance with NAREIT’s definition, it may differ from the methodology for calculating FFO utilized by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to FFO computations of such other REITs.
CFFO is a computation made by analysts and investors to measure a real estate company’s operating performance by removing the effect of items that do not reflect ongoing property operations, including depreciation and amortization of other items not included in FFO, and other non-cash or non-operating gains or losses related to items such as casualty (gains) losses, loan premium accretion and discount amortization, debt extinguishment costs, and merger and integration costs from the determination of FFO.
Our calculation of CFFO may differ from the methodology used for calculating CFFO by other REITs and, accordingly, our CFFO may not be comparable to CFFO reported by other REITs. Our management utilizes FFO and CFFO as measures of our operating performance, and believe they are also useful to investors, because they facilitate an understanding of our operating performance after adjustment for certain non-cash or non-recurring items that are required by GAAP to be expensed but may not necessarily be indicative of current operating performance and our operating performance between periods. Furthermore, although FFO, CFFO and other supplemental performance measures are defined in various ways throughout the REIT industry, we believe that FFO and CFFO may provide us and our investors with an additional useful measure to compare our financial performance to certain other REITs. Neither FFO nor CFFO is equivalent to net income or cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, FFO and CFFO do not represent amounts available for management’s discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments or uncertainties. Accordingly, FFO and CFFO do not measure whether cash flow is sufficient to fund all of our cash needs, including principal amortization and capital improvements. Neither FFO nor CFFO should be considered as an alternative to net income or any other GAAP measurement as an indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow from operating, investing, and financing activities as a measure of our liquidity.
Interest Coverage
Interest coverage is a ratio computed by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by interest expense.
Net Debt
Net debt, a non-GAAP financial measure, equals total consolidated debt less cash and cash equivalents and loan premiums and discounts. The following table provides a reconciliation of total consolidated debt to net debt (Dollars in thousands).
We present net debt and net debt to Adjusted EBITDA because management believes it is a useful measure of our credit position and progress toward reducing leverage. The calculation is limited because we may not always be able to use cash to repay debt on a dollar for dollar basis.

Net Operating Income
We believe that Net Operating Income (“NOI”), a non-GAAP financial measure, is a useful measure of our operating performance. We define NOI as total property revenues less total property operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization, casualty related costs, property management expenses, general administrative expenses, interest expense, and net gains on sale of assets.
Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. We believe that this measure provides an operating perspective not immediately apparent from GAAP operating income or net income. We use NOI to evaluate our performance on a same-store and non same-store basis because NOI measures the core operations of property performance by excluding corporate level expenses and other items not related to property operating performance and captures trends in rental housing and property operating expenses. However, NOI should only be used as an alternative measure of our financial performance.
Same-Store Properties and Same-Store Portfolio
We review our same-store portfolio at the beginning of each calendar year. Properties are added into the same-store portfolio if they were owned at the beginning of the previous year. Properties that are held-for-sale or have been sold are excluded from the same-store portfolio. Because our portfolio of properties changed significantly as a result of our STAR Merger, which closed on December 16, 2021, we may also present, as described below, information on the IRT Same-Store Portfolio, STAR Same-Store Portfolio and Combined Same-Store Portfolio.
IRT Same-Store Portfolio
IRT Same-Store Portfolio represents the 48 properties that IRT owned and consolidated as of January 1, 2021 and through September 30, 2022 (other than properties held for sale as of September 30, 2022).
STAR Same-Store Portfolio
STAR Same-Store Portfolio represents the 65 properties that STAR owned and consolidated as of January 1, 2021 and that, following the consummation of the Merger on December 16, 2021, continued to be owned and consolidated by IRT through September 30, 2022 (other than properties held for sale as of September 30, 2022).
Combined Same-Store Portfolio
Combined Same-Store Portfolio represents the combination of the IRT Same-Store Portfolio and the STAR Same-Store Portfolio considered as a single portfolio of 113 properties which represent 33,804 units.
Combined Non Same-Store Portfolio
Combined Non Same-Store Portfolio represents the combination of six IRT non same-store properties and three STAR non same-store properties considered as a single non same-store portfolio of nine properties which represent 2,372 units acquired after January 1, 2021 (includes two properties held for sale as of September 30, 2022).
Pre-Merger STAR Portfolio NOI
In order to reconcile Combined Same-Store Portfolio NOI to net income for periods prior to our December 16, 2021 merger with STAR, our reconciliation excludes NOI generated by the STAR Portfolio because IRT did not own these properties prior to December 16, 2021.
Total Gross Assets
Total Gross Assets equals total assets plus accumulated depreciation and accumulated amortization, including fully depreciated or amortized real estate and real estate related assets. The following table provides a reconciliation of total assets to total gross assets (dollars in thousands).
