May 9, 2016 6:30 AM EDT

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Colony Starwood Homes (NYSE: SFR) (the “Company”), a leading single-family rental real estate investment trust (“REIT”), today announced operating and financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

First Quarter 2016 Highlights

  • Same Store portfolio of 22,806 homes produced revenue growth of 6.1%, expense reduction of (0.6%) and Core NOI growth of 10.5%
  • Same Store portfolio achieved a Core NOI margin of 65.5%
  • Total Homes Occupancy reached 95.0% as of March 31, 2016
  • Completed Merger integration and achieved approximately 85% of the estimated $50 million in annualized run-rate synergies as of March 31, 2016, and approximately 95% as of today
  • Core FFO of $0.40 per common share produced by the single-family rental home portfolio
  • Company estimates Net Asset Value of $32.63 per share as of March 31, 2016
  • Company accelerates timeline of non-performing loan (“NPL”) portfolio sale and anticipates exit from the NPL business in 2016
  • Company re-affirms full year 2016 guidance

“We are pleased with our first quarter 2016 operating results, our first as the newly combined Colony Starwood Homes,” said Fred Tuomi, Chief Executive Officer. “Our people and platform performed extremely well throughout the integration process, which is now complete and delivering on the strategic and financial advantages we anticipated with the merger. Total portfolio occupancy reached 95%, an important milestone as our business matures and a reflection of continued strong demand for high quality rental homes in high growth markets. Our sizable same store portfolio of over 22,000 homes produced robust revenue growth, which combined with expense decreases led to NOI growth of 10.5% and a core operating margin of 65.5%. This strong performance positions us well to achieve our stated Core FFO guidance for the year. In addition, the intrinsic value of our homes is further validated by our internal NAV estimate of $32.63 per share.”

The first quarter 2016 financial results of the Company (other than Same Store results) include the historical financial results of Starwood Waypoint Residential Trust (“SWAY”) beginning on January 5, 2016, which was the date of the merger between Colony American Homes (“CAH”) and SWAY (the “Merger”). Historical financial results (other than Same Store results) as of dates or for periods prior to January 5, 2016 represent only the pre-Merger financial results of CAH and do not reflect what the financial results would have been had the Merger been complete during such periods.

First Quarter 2016 Operating Results

Core FFO was $43.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, or $0.40 per share. The Company’s Core FFO measure excludes any gains or losses from its non-performing loan business, which the Company intends to exit.

Total revenues were $139.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, and net loss attributable to common shareholders was approximately $44.2 million, or $0.43 per share, driven by depreciation and amortization and transaction costs associated with the Merger.

Same Store Results

For the Company’s Same Store portfolio of 22,806 homes, revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2016 were $100.0 million, a 6.1% increase as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015. Same Store rental revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was $95.5 million, a 5.9% increase from $90.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Same Store property operating expenses decreased by 0.6% over the same comparative period, producing a 10.5% increase in Same Store Core NOI for the three months ended March 31, 2016 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015. Same Store Core NOI margin for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was 65.5%. The Same Store portfolio is defined as homes stabilized longer than 90 days prior to the beginning of the earliest period presented under the comparison, excluding homes subsequently sold.

Investment Activity

The Company sold 351 homes during the first quarter, including 124 single-family rental homes and 227 real estate owned (“REO”) homes. The single-family rental homes were sold for gross sales proceeds of $24.0 million, and the Company recorded a gain of approximately $1.4 million on these sales. The REO homes were sold for gross sales proceeds of $29.9 million, and the Company recorded no gain, as the gain associated with these sales was muted due to the Merger related purchase accounting. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Company acquired 12 homes for an aggregate estimated total investment of $1.8 million, or approximately $151,000 per home, including estimated investment costs for renovation.

NPL Business

On May 4th, 2016, the Company’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”) authorized the sale of the NPL portfolio. The Company intends to commence marketing activities and assess disposition options immediately, and anticipates the business will be treated as a discontinued operation in subsequent periods.

As of March 31, 2016, the Company owned 2,308 first lien NPLs compared to 2,539 first lien NPLs owned as of December 31, 2015, and held 738 REO homes as of first quarter end. The aggregate purchase price of $344.6 million for these 2,308 NPLs represents 61.6% of their collateral property broker price opinion (“BPO”) value. The reduction in first lien NPLs is primarily due to resolution activity during the three months ended March 31, 2016. From inception to date, the Company has resolved 71% of all NPLs acquired.

As a result of Merger related purchase accounting, all of the Company’s NPL and REO assets were recorded at fair value as of the Merger transaction date based upon the Company’s decision to exit that business, which muted GAAP accounting gains from resolution and sale of these assets during the quarter. NPL resolutions and REO sales produced $36.3 million of gross cash proceeds during the quarter producing net proceeds of $29.4 million after associated debt pay down of $6.9 million. As of March 31, 2016 there was $267.5 million of outstanding debt associated with the NPL business, which the Company intends to pay down in connection with the wind down of the NPL business.

Balance Sheet and Capital Markets Activities

As of March 31, 2016, the Company had $4.1 billion of debt outstanding. As of March 31, 2016, the Company had a total of approximately $541.2 million of unrestricted cash and undrawn balance on its credit facilities.

In February 2016, the Company entered into interest rate swap contracts effectively fixing the interest rate on approximately $1.6 billion of its variable-rate debt for three years. These swap contracts are structured as step-up swaps, which lock in the forward LIBOR curve with fixed rates of 2.52%, 2.74%, and 2.99%, in years one, two and three, respectively, averaging 2.75% over the three year term.

The Board previously approved and subsequently revised a share repurchase program, under which the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $250 million of its outstanding common shares through May 6, 2017. Under this revised program, the Company purchased approximately 2.0 million common shares during the three months ended March 31, 2016 for an aggregate purchase price of $44.6 million at an average of $21.74 per share, and has purchased a total of 2.4 million shares under the program to date for an aggregate purchase price of $52.8 million at an average of $22.19 per share.

On May 4, 2016, the Board declared a dividend of $0.22 per common share for the second quarter of 2016, which will be paid on July 15, 2016 to shareholders of record on June 30, 2016.

Full Year 2016 Financial Guidance

Earlier this year the Company provided Core FFO per share guidance related to the single-family rental business only, as the Company is winding down the NPL business. The Company re-affirms that it expects single-family rental Core FFO per share for the full year ending December 31, 2016 for the combined Company to be in the range of $1.55 to $1.65, and re-affirms the occupancy, rent growth and NOI margin assumptions previously provided.

The following presents a summary of the combined Company’s expected financial outlook for the year ending December 31, 2016:

 
Full Year 2016 Guidance
      Range
Core FFO per share $1.55 - $1.65
Stabilized Occupancy 94% - 95%
Blended Rent Growth 4% - 5%
Core NOI margin (Stabilized)       62% - 64%
 

This outlook is based on a number of assumptions, many of which are outside the Company’s control and all of which are subject to change. This outlook reflects the Company’s expectations on (1) existing investments and (2) yield on incremental investments inclusive of the Company’s existing pipeline. All guidance is based on current expectations of future economic conditions and the judgment of the Company’s management team.

Please see the Appendix at the back of this presentation for certain definitions, explanations and reconciliations of Non-GAAP financial measures. All information is as of March 31, 2016 unless otherwise indicated.

(1)   This outlook is based on a number of assumptions, many of which are outside of the Colony Starwood Homes’ control, and all of which are subject to change. This outlook reflects Colony Starwood Homes’ expectations on (a) existing investments and (b) yield on incremental investments inclusive of Colony Starwood Homes’ existing pipeline. All guidance is based on current expectations of future economic conditions and the judgment of the Colony Starwood Homes’ management team.
(2) Net Proceeds after associated debt pay down and carrying costs.
 

Appendix

Annualized Turnover Rate. Is calculated by dividing a) the number of homes that become unoccupied during a period of time by b) the number of homes that had completed initial renovation/rehabilitation and were leasable during the specified period, expressed as an annualized percentage by multiplying the period of measurement to reach a 12 month period (e.g., multiplying a three month turnover measurement by four). Management believes this operational measure is useful in understanding tenant satisfaction, pricing effectiveness and assessing associated property repairs and maintenance expenses.

Average Acquisition Cost per Home. Is calculated by dividing a) the total acquisition cost for each home in an identified population (such acquisition costs including purchase price and closing costs, but excluding renovation/rehabilitation costs incurred prior to leasing) by b) the number of homes in the respective population. Total acquisition cost for assets owned by SWAY prior to the Merger includes the purchase accounting fair market value step-up applied to those assets as of the close of Merger on January 5, 2016.

Average Investment. Is calculated by dividing the sum of a) the total acquisition cost for each home in an identified population b) all property related capitalized expenditures incurred in the renovation/rehabilitation of a property prior to leasing by c) the number of homes in the respective population. Total acquisition cost for assets owned by SWAY prior to the Merger includes the purchase accounting fair market value step-up applied to those assets as of the close of Merger on January 5, 2016.

Average Monthly Rent per Occupied Home. Is calculated by dividing a) the aggregate monthly contractual cash rent (excluding rent concessions and incentives) for an identified population of occupied rental units by b) the number of rental units in the identified population. To date, rent concessions and incentives have been utilized on a limited basis and have not had a significant impact on the Colony Starwood Homes portfolio’s average monthly rent.

Blended Rent Growth. Represents the weighted average rent growth on all new leases (replacement leases) and renewals during a measured period, and is calculated by dividing a) the aggregate contractual first month rent on all new leases and lease renewals executed during the three months ended March 31, 2016 for an identified population of occupied rental units by b) the aggregate contractual last month rent for such identified population of rental units before renewal or new lease. This calculation does not include lease escalations / step-ups for multi-year leases.

Core FFO. Core FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure of operating performance that we believe assists investors in assessing the results of the Company’s single family rental business, which is our core operating business. Core FFO adjusts FFO to eliminate the impact of certain items that we believe are not indicative of our core operating performance, including the results of the NPL business, which we intend to exit, as well as certain non-cash items so that period-over-period measurements are more consistent. Our Core FFO begins with NAREIT FFO and is adjusted for revenues and expenses directly related to our NPL business, for amortization of deferred financing costs and debt premium discounts, share-based compensation, loss on derivative financial instruments, amortization of derivative financial instruments, non-cash interest expense, merger and transaction-related expenses. Please see the reconciliation to Net Income/Loss and NAREIT FFO on page 14. Core FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP, and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a performance measure.

Core Net Operating Income (Core NOI). We calculate Core NOI by subtracting Core Property Operating Costs from Core Rental Revenue, as defined, which eliminates (a) revenues and expenses that we believe are not directly related to the operating performance of the homes themselves and (b) GAAP presentations of resident chargeback fees and bad debt expense to provide a clearer presentation of rental and fee income streams as well as associated expenses. Please refer to the definition of NOI below for an explanation of how that measure is calculated separate from Core NOI. Core NOI is a non-GAAP measure of operating performance that we believe assists investors in assessing the performance of our portfolio of single family homes, which is our core operating business.

The Core NOI measures included in this presentation should not be considered alternatives to net loss or net cash flows from operating activities, as determined in accordance with GAAP, as indications of our performance or as measures of liquidity. Although we use these non-GAAP measures for comparability in assessing their performance against other REITs, not all REITs compute the same non-GAAP measures. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that our basis for computing these non-GAAP measures are comparable with that of other REITs.

Core Property Operating Expenses. Is calculated by adjusting operating costs for the properties in the relevant sample by eliminating the impact of resident chargebacks bad debt expense.

Core Rental Revenue. Is calculated by rental and fee income for the properties in the relevant sample adjusted to eliminate the impact of bad debt expense.

Development Homes. Homes that a) are awaiting initial rehabilitation, b) are currently undergoing initial rehabilitation, or c) have completed initial rehabilitation but have not yet been marketed for initial occupancy.

Estimated Net Asset Value (NAV). Estimated NAV is the estimated value of all tangible assets net of liabilities at current fair market values. The Company believes that Estimated NAV provides investors with useful information to facilitate their understanding of the approximate current market value of our real estate assets, and their value in excess of our obligations to third parties, which we do not believe are immediately apparent from our GAAP balance sheet. Since values for well-maintained real estate assets have historically increased or decreased based upon prevailing market conditions as opposed to depreciating over a useful life presumed by GAAP, the Company believes that Estimated NAV enhances investors’ ability to assess the Company’s approximate franchise value and evaluate our balance sheet risk. Estimated NAV is not meant to represent the liquidation value of our assets, and neither Estimated NAV, nor any of the metrics or methodologies described below in its development and calculation should be viewed as a substitute for book value, net investments in real estate, equity, net income or cash flows from operations prepared in accordance with GAAP, or as measures of profitability or liquidity. Estimated NAV does not consider potential changes in the value of the assets since the last date of valuation, the collectability of rents from our tenants or the value associated with our operating platform. Further, not all real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) compute this same non-GAAP measure or valuation methodologies, therefore, there can be no assurance that our basis for computing this non-GAAP measure is comparable with that of other REITs.

We estimate the fair value of our investments in single-family rentals using a progressive method that incorporates three value sources:

1) automated valuation model values (“AVMs”),

2) broker price opinions (“BPOs”) and

3) internal desktop evaluations

AVM values are value estimates provided by service providers based on their proprietary mathematical modeling platforms utilizing historical sales and public records data of comparable homes with adjustments based on characteristics specific to the relevant home being valued. The AVMs we receive are accompanied with a confidence index which provides a measure of perceived reliability of the AVM value. The AVM confidence index is prepared by a third-party AVM service provider and includes a confidence score, which is a statistically based measurement of how similar or dissimilar the results of the third-party AVM service provider’s multiple proprietary valuation models are to each other. We accept AVMs with confidence scores that equate to a statistical error margin of approximately 5% or less. When a home’s AVM confidence index falls below our acceptable score, we will rely on a current BPO, which is a value estimate provided by a local broker based on comparable sales data and adjusted based on characteristics specific to the relevant home being valued. If a current BPO is not available, an internal evaluation is performed by a licensed appraiser using the market approach as defined by the Appraisal Institute to estimate the fair value.

The fair value of investments in NPLs is estimated using the net present values of the BPOs of the underlying homes discounted at a then current market discount rate. The net present values of the BPOs of the underlying homes are determined using estimates of the length of time service providers as adjusted from time to time based on our experience. The fair value of investments in REO properties is based on current BPO values.

The costs of selling properties in the portfolio, including commissions and other related costs are not deducted for the purpose of calculating the Estimated NAV, with the exception of homes held for sale. Further, future promoted interests on the NPL portfolio are not deducted for the purpose of calculating Estimated NAV. We consider Estimated NAV to be an appropriate supplemental measure as it illustrates the estimated imbedded value in our SFR portfolio and NPL and REO portfolio that is carried on our balance sheet at historical cost. The Estimated SFR Value, Estimated NPL and REO Value and Estimated NAV are non-GAAP financial measures. However, they are provided for informational purposes to be used by investors in assessing the value of our assets. A reconciliation of total shareholders’ equity to Estimated NAV is provided below.

The use of AVMs in preparing the estimated NAV is subject to certain inherent limitations, including potentially imperfect and/or incomplete information regarding the properties being valued and comparable properties used in the AVM model. SFR, NPL and REO values used in the calculation of estimated NAV are not subject to audit procedures by our independent auditors. These metrics should be considered along with other available information in valuing and assessing us, including our GAAP financial measures and other cash flow and yield metrics.

These metrics should not be viewed as a substitute for book value, net investments in real estate, equity, net income or cash flows from operations prepared in accordance with GAAP, or as measures of profitability or liquidity. Further, not all real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) compute this same non-GAAP measure, therefore, there can be no assurance that our basis for computing this non-GAAP measure is comparable with that of other REITs.

Integration Costs. Costs and charges incurred during the integration of the Starwood Waypoint Residential Trust and Colony American Homes operations in the three months ended March 31, 2016 that are not reflective of our core operating performance and that we do not expect to incur subsequent to the completion of the Merger integration, but which do not qualify for Merger and transaction related expenses under GAAP. The majority of Integration Costs consist of base salaries, benefits, and payroll taxes of employees separated or scheduled for separation as a result of the Merger. Below is a summary of Integration Costs through the three months ended March 31, 2016:

Category         Amount (000s)  
Employee related costs         $ 4,208
Accounting and audit 775
Technology costs 360
Office rents 223
Other   64
Total $ 5,630
 

Merger and Transaction Related Expenses. Direct costs incurred as a result of the Merger closing or costs required to ensure the Merger was completed successfully. These costs include legal fees, advisory services (accounting, tax, and entity filings), success fees, employee retention plans and severance costs, and property tax / transfer costs. A summary of costs for the three months ended March 31, 2016 is summarized below:

Category         Amount (000s)  
Closing and Success Fees         $ 13,717
Legal 4,280
Employee Related Costs 4,078
Other   1,407
Total $ 23,482
 

NAREIT FFO. Funds from operations is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) as net income or loss (in accordance with GAAP) excluding gains or losses from sale of previously depreciated real estate assets, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets and adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. See page 14 for reconciliation to Income Statement Net Loss. Consistent with real estate industry and investment community preferences, we use FFO as a supplemental measure of operating performance for a REIT. We consider FFO useful to investors as a complement to GAAP measures because it facilitates an understanding of the operating performance of the Company’s properties. FFO does not give effect to real estate depreciation and amortization since these amounts are computed to allocate the cost of a property over its useful life. Since values for well-maintained real estate assets have historically increased or decreased based upon prevailing market conditions, the Company believes that FFO provides investors with a clearer view of the Company’s operating performance.

Net Operating Income or NOI. We define NOI as rental and other property revenues less property operating expenses. We have presented NOI for various segments of our portfolio, including Same Store Homes, Stabilized Homes, Development Homes, and Other Homes as we believe these NOI measures to be appropriate supplemental measures of operating performance to net income attributable to common shareholders because they reflect the operating performance of our homes without allocation of corporate level overhead or general and administrative costs and reflect the operations of the segments and sub-segments of our business. Refer to the table below for a reconciliation of net loss attributable to common shareholders to NOI. Please refer to the definition of Core NOI above for an explanation of how that measure is calculated separate from NOI.

These NOI measures included in this presentation should not be considered alternatives to net loss or net cash flows from operating activities, as determined in accordance with GAAP, as indications of our performance or as measures of liquidity. Although we use these non-GAAP measures for comparability in assessing their performance against other REITs, not all REITs compute the same non-GAAP measures. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that our basis for computing these non-GAAP measures are comparable with that of other REITs.
