PLYMOUTH INDUSTRIAL REIT, INC.

About Us 

Plymouth Industrial REIT (NYSE American: PLYM) is a vertically integrated and self-

managed real estate investment trust focused on the acquisition and operation of single 

and multi-tenant industrial properties located in secondary and select primary markets 

across the United States. The Company seeks to acquire properties that provide current 

operating income with the opportunity to enhance shareholder value through property 

re-positioning, capital improvements and restructuring tenant leases.

Dear Fellow Shareholders:

We are honored to report on our first year as a public company. We hope we are able to articulate in 

this brief letter our excitement and basis for the growth potential for Plymouth Industrial REIT. 

Our initial public offering in June 2017 was a major accomplishment for our team, but more importantly 

it marked the start of a new period of growth for Plymouth. Since that time, we have been one of the 

more active REITs in terms of putting capital to work and have established a proven record of making 

accretive investments. Through a combination of IPO and preferred offering proceeds we have raised 

over $101 million in capital, utilized operating partnership units in acquisitions, and secured access to 

another $45 million through a new credit facility. 

The portfolio we have created is highly diversified and well-leased. It now totals 9.5 million square feet 

in nine states and was 96.5% leased at year end. We own both multi-tenant and single-tenant buildings 

with over 80 tenants in the portfolio across all product types. We have doubled the size of the portfolio 

since our IPO, and are expecting to generate a similar impact on revenues and net operating income as 

we begin to see the full benefit from these acquisitions and our strong releasing spreads.

If there is any particular transaction that embodies the type of opportunity available to us, it is the 

15-property Chicago portfolio we acquired from Goldman Sachs in November 2017. This was a 

transformational deal at an attractive initial yield — funded primarily by an $80 million mortgage from 

Goldman — that provided substantial scale in the second largest industrial market in the United States. 

Through property re-positioning and intensive asset management, we are already seeing positive 

results that exceed our initial underwriting.

With our differentiated focus on where Industrial America is established with access to highly skilled 

labor, we are located in many of the top industrial markets — such as Atlanta, Chicago, Columbus and 

Indianapolis to name a few — that have been targeted for “last mile” use and have strong fundamentals. 

Our investment efforts have focused primarily on Class B and select Class A industrial buildings, as 

they are more prevalent in the infill submarkets. From smaller flex and light manufacturing buildings to 

larger properties that are more distribution oriented and mission-critical to their tenants, we believe we 

have a successful investment formula. 

The opportunity now is to take a proven and time-tested team with real estate and public company 

experience, further develop our niche focus, deliver both attractive stable returns and rental 

growth from proactive asset management, and source and execute on accretive acquisitions. Our 

accomplishments during 2017 and to date in 2018, along with a robust economic environment that is 

driving demand for industrial properties, give us confidence that we can scale this platform to create 

value for all our shareholders.

Thank you for your support and continued investment with us. We look forward to reporting our 

progress to you during the year.

Overview 

PART I 

We are a full service, vertically integrated, self-administered and self-managed Maryland corporation focused on the 
acquisition, ownership and management of single and multi-tenant Class B industrial properties, including distribution centers, 
warehouses and light industrial properties, primarily located in secondary and select primary markets across the U.S. For our 
definition of Class B industrial properties, see “—Our Investment and Growth Strategies—Investment Strategy.” As of December 
31, 2017, the Company Portfolio consists of 49 industrial properties located in nine states with an aggregate of approximately 9.2 
million rentable square feet. The Company Portfolio was 96.5% leased to 82 different tenants across 17 industry types as of 
December 31, 2017. 

We intend to continue to focus on the acquisition of Class B industrial properties primarily in secondary markets with net 

rentable square footage ranging between approximately 100 million and 300 million square feet, which we refer to as our target 
markets. We believe industrial properties in such target markets will provide superior and consistent cash flow returns at generally 
lower acquisition costs relative to industrial properties in primary markets. Further, we believe there is a greater potential for 
higher rates of appreciation in the value of industrial properties in our target markets relative to industrial properties in primary 
markets. 

We believe our target markets provide us with opportunities to acquire both stabilized properties generating favorable cash 
flows, as well as properties where we can enhance returns through value-add renovations and redevelopment. We focus primarily 
on the following investments: 

• 

single-tenant industrial properties where tenants are paying below-market rents with near-term lease expirations that we 
believe have a high likelihood of renewal at market rents; and 

•  multi-tenant industrial properties that we believe would benefit from our value-add management approach to create 

attractive leasing options for our tenants, and as a result of the presence of smaller tenants, obtain higher per-square-foot 
rents. 

We believe there are a significant number of attractive acquisition opportunities available to us in our target markets and that 
the fragmented and complex nature of our target markets generally make it difficult for less-experienced or less-focused investors 
to access comparable opportunities on a consistent basis. 

Our company, which was formerly known as Plymouth Opportunity REIT, Inc., was founded in March 2011 by two of our 
executive officers, Jeffrey Witherell and Pendleton White, Jr., each of whom has at least 25 years of experience acquiring, owning 
and operating commercial real estate properties. Specifically, both were members of a team of senior investment executives that 
was responsible for the acquisition and capital formation of commercial properties for Franklin Street Properties (NYSE: FSP), or 
Franklin Street, a REIT based in Boston, MA, from 2000 to 2007, during which time Franklin Street listed its stock on the 
American Stock Exchange. Following their time at Franklin Street, our founders recognized a growing opportunity in the Class B 
industrial space, particularly in secondary markets and select primary markets, following the 2008-2010 recession, and founded 
our company to participate in the cyclical recovery of the U.S. economy. Between March 2011 to April 2014, we prepared for and 
engaged in a non-listed public offering of our common stock. We used the proceeds from that offering to acquire equity interests 
in five industrial properties. In 2014, we used the proceeds of a senior secured loan to acquire 100% fee ownership in three of 
those properties and 100% fee ownership in an additional 17 properties that comprise a portion of the Company Portfolio. In July 
2015 and January 2017, we sold our equity interests in the two properties in which we did not have 100% fee ownership. 

In June 2017, we completed our initial listed public offering of our common stock. The net proceeds of our initial listed 
public offering were approximately $52.6 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering 
costs.  We used approximately $20.0 million of the net proceeds of the offering to redeem Torchlight’s preferred equity interests 
in one of our subsidiaries and substantially all of the remaining net proceeds to acquire nine additional industrial properties. 

Investment Strategy 

Our primary investment strategy is to acquire and own Class B industrial properties predominantly in secondary markets 
across the U.S. We generally define Class B industrial properties as industrial properties that are typically more than 15 years old, 
have clear heights between 18 and 26 feet and square footage between 50,000 and 300,000 square feet, with building systems that 
have adequate capacities to deliver the services currently needed by existing tenants, but may need upgrades for future tenants. In 
contrast, we define Class A industrial properties as industrial properties that typically are 15 years old or newer, have clear 
heights in excess of 26 feet and square footage in excess of 300,000 square feet, with energy efficient design characteristics 
suitable for current and future tenants. 

We intend to own and acquire properties that we believe can achieve high initial yields and strong ongoing cash-on-cash 
returns and that exhibit the potential for increased rental growth in the near future. In addition, we may acquire Class A industrial 
properties that offer similar attractive return characteristics if the cost basis for such properties are comparable to those of Class B 
industrial properties in a given market or sub-market. While we will focus on investment opportunities in our target markets, we 

1 

 
  
  
may make opportunistic acquisitions of Class A industrial properties or industrial properties in primary markets when we believe 
we can achieve attractive risk-adjusted returns. 

We also intend to pursue joint venture arrangements with institutional partners which could provide management fee income 

as well as residual profit-sharing income. Such joint ventures may involve investing in industrial assets that would be 
characterized as opportunistic or value-add investments. These may involve development or re-development strategies that may 
require significant up-front capital expenditures, lengthy lease-up periods and result in inconsistent cash flows. As such, these 
properties’ risk profiles and return metrics would likely differ from the non-joint venture properties that we target for acquisition. 

We believe we have a competitive advantage in sourcing attractive acquisitions because the competition for our target assets 

is primarily from local investors who are not likely to have ready access to debt or equity capital. In addition, our umbrella 
partnership real estate investment trust, or UPREIT, structure enables us to acquire industrial properties on a non-cash basis in a 
tax efficient manner through the issuance of OP units as full or partial consideration for the transaction. We will also continue to 
develop our large existing network of relationships with real estate and financial intermediaries. These individuals and companies 
give us access to significant deal flow—both those broadly marketed and those exposed through only limited marketing. These 
properties will be acquired primarily from third-party owners of existing leased buildings and secondarily from owner-occupiers 
through sale-leaseback transactions. 

Growth Strategies 

We seek to maximize our cash flows through proactive asset management. Our asset management team actively manages our 
properties in an effort to maintain high retention rates, lease vacant space, manage operating expenses and maintain our properties 
to an appropriate standard. In doing so, we have developed strong tenant relationships. We intend to leverage those relationships 
and market knowledge to increase renewals, properly prepare tenants for rent increases, obtain early notification of departures to 
provide longer re-leasing periods and work with tenants to properly maintain the quality and attractiveness of our properties. Our 
asset management team also collaborates with our internal credit function to actively monitor the credit profile of each of our 
tenants and prospective tenants on an ongoing basis. 

Our asset management team functions include strategic planning and decision-making, centralized leasing activities and 

management of third-party leasing companies. Our asset management/credit team oversees property management activities 
relating to our properties which include controlling capital expenditures and expenses that are not reimbursable by tenants, 
making regular property inspections, overseeing rent collections and cost control and planning and budgeting activities. Tenant 
relations matters, including monitoring of tenant compliance with their property maintenance obligations and other lease 
provisions, will be handled by in-house personnel for most of our properties. 

Financing Strategy 

We intend to maintain a flexible and growth-oriented capital structure. We intend to use the net proceeds from our public 
offerings along with additional secured and unsecured indebtedness to acquire industrial properties. Our additional indebtedness 
may include arrangements such as a revolving credit facility or term loan. We believe that we will have the ability to leverage 
newly-acquired properties with our long-term target debt-to-value ratio of less than 50%. We also anticipate using OP units to 
acquire properties from existing owners interested in tax-deferred transactions. 

Investment Criteria 

We believe that our market knowledge, operations systems and internal processes allow us to efficiently analyze the risks 

associated with an asset’s ability to produce cash flow going forward. We blend fundamental real estate analysis with corporate 
credit analysis to make a probabilistic assessment of cash flows that will be realized in future periods. We also use data-driven 
and event-driven analytics and primary research to identify and pursue emerging investment opportunities. 

Our investment strategy focuses on Class B industrial properties in secondary markets for the following reasons: 

•  Class B industrial properties generally require less capital expenditures than both Class A industrial properties and other 

• 

commercial property types; 
investment yields for Class B industrial properties are often greater than investment yields on both Class A industrial 
properties and other commercial property types; 

•  Class B industrial tenants tend to retain their current space more frequently than Class A industrial tenants; 
•  Class B industrial properties tend to have higher current returns and lower volatility than Class A industrial properties; 
•  we believe there is less competition for Class B industrial properties from institutional real estate buyers; our typical 

• 

competitors are local investors who often do not have ready access to debt or equity capital; 
the Class B industrial real estate market is highly fragmented and complex, which we believe makes it difficult for less-
experienced or less-focused investors to access comparable opportunities on a consistent basis; 
•  we believe that there is a limited new supply of Class B industrial space in our target markets; 
• 
•  Class B industrial properties and secondary markets are typically “cycle agnostic”; i.e., less prone to overall real estate 

secondary markets generally have less occupancy and rental rate volatility than primary markets; 

cycle fluctuations; 

•  we believe secondary markets generally have more growth potential at a lower cost basis than primary markets; and 

2 

 
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
•  we believe that the demand for e-commerce-related properties, or e-fulfillment facilities, will continue to grow and play 

a significant role in our investing strategy. 

Regulation 

General 

Our properties are subject to various laws, ordinances and regulations, including regulations relating to common areas and 

fire and safety requirements. We believe that we have the necessary permits and approvals to operate each of our properties. 

Americans with Disabilities Act 

Our properties must comply with Title III of the ADA to the extent that such properties are “public accommodations” as 
defined under the ADA. Under the ADA, all public accommodations must meet federal requirements related to access and use by 
disabled persons. The ADA may require removal of structural barriers to access by persons with disabilities in certain public areas 
of our properties where such removal is readily achievable. Although we believe that the properties in the Company Portfolio in 
the aggregate substantially comply with present requirements of the ADA, and we have not received any notice for correction 
from any regulatory agency, we have not conducted a comprehensive audit or investigation of all of our properties to determine 
whether we are in compliance and therefore we may own properties that are not in compliance with the ADA. 

ADA compliance is dependent upon the tenant’s specific use of the property, and as the use of a property changes or 

improvements to existing spaces are made, we will take steps to ensure compliance. Noncompliance with the ADA could result in 
additional costs to attain compliance, imposition of fines by the U.S. government or an award of damages or attorney’s fees to 
private litigants. The obligation to make readily achievable accommodations is an ongoing one, and we will continue to assess our 
properties and to make alterations to achieve compliance as necessary. 

Environmental Matters 

The Company Portfolio is subject to various federal, state and local environmental laws. Under these laws, courts and 
government agencies have the authority to require us, as owner of a contaminated property, to clean up the property, even if we 
did not know of or were not responsible for the contamination. These laws also apply to persons who owned a property at the time 
it became contaminated, and therefore, it is possible we could incur these costs even after we sell some of the properties we 
acquire. In addition to the costs of cleanup, environmental contamination can affect the value of a property and, therefore, an 
owner’s ability to borrow using the property as collateral or to sell the property. Under applicable environmental laws, courts and 
government agencies also have the authority to require that a person who sent waste to a waste disposal facility, such as a landfill 
or an incinerator, pay for the clean-up of that facility if it becomes contaminated and threatens human health or the environment. 

Furthermore, various court decisions have established that third parties may recover damages for injury caused by property 

contamination. For instance, a person exposed to asbestos at one of our properties may seek to recover damages if he or she 
suffers injury from the asbestos. Lastly, some of these environmental laws restrict the use of a property or place conditions on 
various activities. An example would be laws that require a business using chemicals to manage them carefully and to notify local 
officials that the chemicals are being used. 

We could be responsible for any of the costs discussed above. The costs to clean up a contaminated property, to defend 

against a claim, or to comply with environmental laws could be material and could adversely affect the funds available for 
distribution to our stockholders. We usually require Phase I or similar environmental assessments by independent environmental 
consultants at the time of acquisition of a property. We generally expect to continue to obtain a Phase I or similar environmental 
site assessments by independent environmental consultants on each property prior to acquiring it. However, these environmental 
assessments may not reveal all environmental costs that might have a material adverse effect on our business, assets, results of 
operations or liquidity and may not identify all potential environmental liabilities. 

We can make no assurances that (1) future laws, ordinances or regulations will not impose material environmental liabilities 

on us, or (2) the current environmental condition of our properties will not be affected by tenants, the condition of land or 
operations in the vicinity of our properties (such as releases from underground storage tanks), or by third parties unrelated to us. 

Insurance 

We carry commercial property, liability and terrorism coverage on all the properties in the Company Portfolio under a 
blanket insurance policy. Generally, we do not carry insurance for certain types of extraordinary losses, including, but not limited 
to, losses caused by riots, war, earthquakes and wildfires unless the property is in a higher risk area for those events. We believe 
the policy specifications and insured limits are appropriate and adequate given the relative risk of loss, the cost of the coverage 
and standard industry practice, however, our insurance coverage may not be sufficient to fully cover all of our losses. In addition, 
our title insurance policies may not insure for the current aggregate market value of the Company Portfolio, and we do not intend 
to increase our title insurance coverage as the market value of the Company Portfolio increases. 

Competition 

In acquiring our properties, we compete with other public industrial property sector REITs, income oriented non-traded 
REITs, private real estate fund managers and local real estate investors and developers. The last named group, local real estate 

3 

 
  
investors and developers, historically has represented our dominant competition for acquisition opportunities. Many of these 
entities have greater resources than us or other competitive advantages. We also face significant competition in leasing available 
properties to prospective tenants and in re-leasing space to existing tenants. 

Employees 

As of December 31, 2017, we had eleven full-time employees. None of our employees are represented by a labor union. 

Legal Proceedings 

We are not currently a party, as plaintiff or defendant, to any material legal proceedings. From time to time, we may become 

party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. There can be no 
assurance that these matters that may arise in the future, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect 
on our financial condition or results of operations. 

Structure and Formation of Our Company 

Our Company 

We were formed as a Maryland corporation in March 2011 and previously conducted business as Plymouth Opportunity 
REIT, Inc. We conduct our business through an UPREIT structure in which our properties are owned by our operating partnership 
directly or through subsidiaries, as described below under “—Our Operating Partnership.” We are the sole general partner of our 
operating partnership and indirectly own 90.1% of the OP units in our operating partnership and all of the membership interests in 
its subsidiaries. Our board of directors oversees our business and affairs. 

Our Operating Partnership 

Our operating partnership was formed as a Delaware limited partnership in March 2011. Substantially all of our assets are 
held by, and our operations are conducted through, our operating partnership. Any net proceeds from our public offerings will be 
contributed to our operating partnership in exchange for OP units. Our interest in our operating partnership will generally entitle 
us to share in cash distributions from, and in the profits and losses of, our operating partnership in proportion to our percentage 
ownership. As the sole general partner of our operating partnership, we generally have the exclusive power under the partnership 
agreement to manage and conduct its business and affairs, subject to certain limited approval and voting rights of the limited 
partners.

Triple-net lease.    In our triple-net leases, the tenant is responsible for all aspects of and costs related to the property and its 
operation during the lease term. The landlord may have responsibility under the lease to perform or pay for certain capital repairs 
or replacements to the roof, structure or certain building systems, such as heating and air conditioning and fire suppression. The 
tenant may have the right to terminate the lease or abate rent due to a major casualty or condemnation affecting a significant 
portion of the property or due to the landlord’s failure to perform its obligations under the lease. As of December 31, 2017, there 
were 64 triple-net leases in the Company Portfolio, representing approximately 75.6% of our total annualized base rent. 

Modified triple-net lease.    In our modified triple-net leases, the landlord is responsible for some property related expenses 

during the lease term, but the cost of most of the expenses is passed through to the tenant. The tenant may have the right to 
terminate the lease or abate rent due to a major casualty or condemnation affecting a significant portion of the property or due to 
the landlord’s failure to perform its obligations under the lease. As of December 31, 2017, there were 11 modified triple-net leases 
in the Company Portfolio, representing approximately 13.8% of our total annualized base rent. 

Gross lease.    In our gross leases, the landlord is responsible for all aspects of and costs related to the property and its 

operation during the lease term. The tenant may have the right to terminate the lease or abate rent due to a major casualty or 
condemnation affecting a significant portion of the property or due to the landlord’s failure to perform its obligations under the 
lease. As of December 31, 2017, there were 16 gross leases in the Company Portfolio, representing approximately 10.6% of the 
annualized base rent. 

Lease Expirations 

As of December 31, 2017, the weighted average in-place remaining lease term of the Company Portfolio was 3.1 years. The

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS 

In the normal course of business, we could become party to legal actions and proceedings involving matters that are generally 

incidental to our business. While it will likely not be possible to ascertain the ultimate outcome of such matters, management 
expects that the resolution of any such legal actions and proceedings would not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated 
financial statements. 

There are no legal proceedings at this time.

Distribution Policy 

It is our policy to declare quarterly dividends to the stockholders so as to comply with applicable provisions of the Code 
governing REITs. The declaration and payment of quarterly dividends remains subject to the review and approval of the board of 
directors. To satisfy the requirements to qualify as a REIT, and to avoid paying tax on our income, we have paid and intend to 
continue to pay regular quarterly cash dividends of all or substantially all of our REIT taxable income (excluding net capital 
gains) to holders of our common stock. 

We intend to distribute at least 90% of our taxable income each year (subject to certain adjustments as described below) to 

our stockholders in order to qualify as a REIT under the Code and generally expect to distribute 100% of our REIT taxable 
income so as to avoid the excise tax on undistributed REIT taxable income. 

Distributions to our common stockholders are authorized by our board of directors in its sole discretion and declared by us 

out of funds legally available therefor. We expect that our board of directors, in authorizing the amounts of distributions, will 
consider a variety of factors, including: 

• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 

actual results of operations and our cash available for distribution; 
the timing of the investment of the net proceeds from our offerings; 
debt service requirements and any restrictive covenants in our loan agreements; 
capital expenditure requirements for our properties; 
our taxable income; 
the annual distribution requirement under the REIT provisions of the Code; 
our operating expenses; 
requirements under applicable law; and 
other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant. 

We anticipate that at least initially, our distributions will exceed our then current and accumulated earnings and profits as 

determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes primarily due to depreciation and amortization that we expect to incur. 
Therefore, a portion of these distributions may represent a return of capital for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Distributions in 
excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits and not treated by us as a distribution will not be taxable to a taxable 
U.S. stockholder under current U.S. federal income tax law to the extent those distributions do not exceed the stockholder's 
adjusted tax basis in his or her shares of common stock, but rather will reduce the adjusted basis of the shares of common stock. 
Therefore, the gain (or loss) recognized on the sale of the common stock or upon our liquidation will be increased (or decreased)

accordingly. To the extent those distributions exceed a taxable U.S. stockholder's adjusted tax basis in his or our shares of 
common stock, they generally will be treated as a capital gain realized form the taxable disposition of those shares. The 
percentage of our stockholder distributions that exceeds our current and accumulated earnings and profits may vary substantially 
from year to year. 

Although we have no current intention to do so, we may in the future also choose to pay distributions in the form of our own 

shares.

Item 6. Selected Financial Data

Item 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF 
OPERATIONS 

The following discussion and analysis is based on, and should be read in conjunction with our audited historical financial 

statements and related notes thereto as of and for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016. 

Overview 

We are a full service, vertically integrated, self-administered and self-managed REIT focused on the acquisition, ownership 

and management of single- and multi-tenant Class B industrial properties, including distribution centers, warehouses and light 
industrial properties. The Company Portfolio consists of 49 industrial properties located in nine states with an aggregate of 
approximately 9.2 million rentable square feet leased to 82 different tenants. 

Our strategy is to invest in single- and multi-tenant Class B industrial properties located primarily in secondary markets 
across the U.S.; however, we may make opportunistic acquisitions of Class A industrial properties or industrial properties located 
in primary markets. We seek to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for our stockholders through a combination of dividends 
and capital appreciation. 

Factors That May Influence Future Results of Operations 

Business and Strategy 

Our core investment strategy is to acquire primarily Class B industrial properties predominantly in secondary markets across 
the U.S. We expect to acquire these properties through third-party purchases and structured sale-leasebacks where we believe we 
can achieve high initial yields and strong ongoing cash-on-cash returns. In addition, we may make opportunistic acquisitions of 
Class A industrial properties or industrial properties in primary markets that offer similar return characteristics. 

Our target markets are comprised primarily of secondary markets because we believe these markets tend to have less 
occupancy and rental rate volatility and less buyer competition relative to primary markets. We also believe that the systematic 
aggregation of such properties will result in a diversified portfolio that will produce sustainable risk-adjusted returns. Future 
results of operations may be affected, either positively or negatively, by our ability to effectively execute this strategy. 

We also intend to pursue joint venture arrangements with institutional partners which could provide management fee income 

as well as residual profit-sharing income. Such joint ventures may involve investing in industrial assets that would be 
characterized as opportunistic or value-add investments. These may involve development or re-development strategies that may 
require significant up-front capital expenditures, lengthy lease-up periods and result in inconsistent cash flows. As such, these 
properties’ risk profiles and return metrics would likely differ from the non-joint venture properties that we target for acquisition. 

Rental Revenue and Tenant Recoveries 

We receive income primarily from rental revenue from our properties. The amount of rental revenue generated by the 
Company Portfolio depends principally on the occupancy levels and lease rates at our properties, our ability to lease currently 
available space and space that becomes available as a result of lease expirations and on the rental rates at our properties. 

Occupancy Rates.    As of December 31, 2017, the Company Portfolio was approximately 96.5% occupied. Our occupancy 

rate is impacted by general market conditions in the geographic areas which our properties are located and the financial condition 
of tenants in our target markets. 

Rental Rates.    We believe that rental rates for Class B industrial properties in our markets continue to recover from the 2008 
financial crisis and subsequent economic recession, and accordingly we expect increases in lease rates upon renewal of upcoming 
lease expirations as market conditions continue to improve. Future economic downturns affecting our markets could impair our 
ability to renew or re-lease space, and adverse developments that affect the ability of our tenants to fulfill their lease obligations, 

10 

 
such as tenant bankruptcies, could adversely affect our ability to maintain or increase occupancy or rental rates at our properties. 
Adverse developments or trends in one or more of these factors could adversely affect our rental revenue in future periods. 

Scheduled Lease Expirations 

Our ability to re-lease space subject to expiring leases will impact our results of operations and will be affected by economic 

and competitive conditions in the markets in which we operate and by the desirability of our individual properties. During the 
period from January 1, 2018 through to December 31, 2020, an aggregate of 52.8% of the annualized base rent leases in the 
Company Portfolio are scheduled to expire, which we believe will provide us an opportunity to adjust below market rates as 
market conditions continue to improve. 

We have historically been able to quickly and efficiently lease vacant space in the Company Portfolio. During 2016 and 
2017, leases for space totaling 506,275 square feet (5.5% of the Company Portfolio) either was subject to renewal or expired. 
Approximately 95% of the expired space was renewed and an additional 50,061 square feet was leased long term with new 
tenants. At December 31, 2017, the vacancy rate of the Company Portfolio was 3.5% factoring in the vacancy rate associated with 
the properties acquired in the third and fourth quarter of 2017.

During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2017, we negotiated 12 leases with durations in excess of six months 
encompassing 459,690 square feet and negotiated one lease with a duration of less than six months encompassing 21,153 square 
feet. Renewed leases made up 79.4% of the square footage covered by the 12 leases in excess of 6 months, and the rent under the 
renewed leases increased an average of 5.3% over the prior leases.  Leases to new tenants comprised the other 20.6% of the 
square footage covered by the 12 leases in excess of 6 months, and the rent under the new leases increase an average of 48.7% 
over the prior leases. The rental rates under the 12 leases in excess of 6 months entered into during 2016 and 2017, increased by 
an average of 10.3% over the rates of the prior leases. 

The table below reflects certain data about our new and renewed leases with terms of greater than six months executed in the 

years 2016 and 2017.

Conditions in Our Markets 

The Company Portfolio is located primarily in various secondary markets in the eastern half of the U.S. Positive or negative 
changes in economic or other conditions, adverse weather conditions and natural disasters in these markets are likely to affect our 
overall performance. 

Rental Expenses 

Our rental expenses generally consist of utilities, real estate taxes, insurance and site repair and maintenance costs. For the 
majority of the Company Portfolio, rental expenses are controlled, in part, by either the triple net provisions or modified gross 
lease expense reimbursement provisions in tenant leases. However, the terms of our tenant leases vary and in some instances the 
leases may provide that we are responsible for certain rental expenses. Accordingly, our overall financial results will be impacted 
by the extent to which we are able to pass-through rental expenses to our tenants. 

General and Administrative Expenses 

As a newly public company, we expect to incur increased general and administrative expenses, including legal, accounting 

and other expenses related to corporate governance, public reporting and compliance with various provisions of the Sarbanes-
Oxley Act. In addition, we anticipate that our staffing levels will increase slightly from eleven employees as of the date of this 
annual report on Form 10-K to between 12 and 14 employees during the 12 to 24 months following December 31, 2017 and, as a 
result, our general and administrative expenses will increase further. 

Critical Accounting Policies 

Our discussion and analysis of our company’s historical financial condition and results of operations are based upon its 
consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial 
statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions in certain circumstances that 
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenue and 
expenses in the reporting period. Actual amounts may differ from these estimates and assumptions. 

We believe our most critical accounting policies are the regular evaluation of whether the value of a real estate asset has been 
impaired and accounting for acquisitions. Each of these items involves estimates that require management to make judgments that 
are subjective in nature. We rely on our experience, we collect historical data and current market data, and we analyze these 
assumptions in order to arrive at what we believe to be reasonable estimates. Under different conditions or assumptions, 
materially different amounts could be reported related to the accounting policies described below. In addition, application of these 
accounting policies involves the exercise of judgments on the use of assumptions as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual 
results could materially differ from these estimates. 

Use of Estimates 

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates 
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the 
date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. 
Management makes significant estimates regarding the allocation of tangible and intangible assets or business acquisitions, 
impairment of long-lived assets, stock-based compensation and its common stock warrants liability.These estimates and 
assumptions are based on management’s best estimates and judgment. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an 
ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment. Management adjusts 
such estimates when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, 
actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. 

Going Concern 

In accordance with ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (“ASU 2014-15”), we have 
evaluated our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 
included in the prospectus dated June 8, 2017, included a statement indicating substantial doubt with regard to our ability to 
continue as a going concern. The net proceeds of our initial listed public offering in June 2017 and our Series A Preferred Stock 
offering in October 2017 have fully addressed our working capital needs. Our consolidated financial statements have been 
prepared on a basis which assumes that we will continue as a going concern and which contemplates the realization of assets and 
the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business. 

Cash 

We maintain our cash in bank deposit accounts, which at times may exceed federally insured limits. As of December 31, 
2017, we had not realized any losses in such cash accounts and believe that we are not exposed to any significant risk of loss. 

Income Taxes 

We elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes commencing with our taxable year ended 

December 31, 2012 and we believe that our organization and method of operation enable us to continue to meet the requirements 
for qualification and taxation as a REIT. We had no taxable income prior to electing REIT status. To maintain our qualification as 

12 

 
a REIT, we must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of 
our annual REIT taxable income to stockholders (which is computed without regard to the dividends-paid deduction or net capital 
gain and which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP). As a REIT, we generally will not 
be subject to federal income tax on income that we distribute as dividends to our stockholders. If we fail to maintain our 
qualification as a REIT in any tax year, we will be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate 
income tax rates and generally will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for the 
four taxable years following the year during which qualification is lost, unless we are able to obtain relief under certain statutory 
provisions. Such an event could materially and adversely affect our net income and net cash available for distribution to 
stockholders. 

Investments in Real Estate 

We generally acquire individual properties, and, in some instances, a portfolio of properties. When we acquire individual 
operating properties with the intention to hold the investment for the long-term, we allocate the purchase price to the various 
components of the acquisition based upon the fair value of each component. The components typically include land, building, 
debt, intangible assets related to above and below market leases, value of costs to obtain tenants, and other assumed assets and 
liabilities. We consider Level 3 inputs such as the replacement cost of such assets, appraisals, property condition reports, 
comparable market rental data and other related information in determining the fair value of the tangible assets. The recorded fair 
value of intangible lease assets or liabilities includes Level 3 inputs including the value associated with leasing commissions, 
legal and other costs, as well as the estimated period necessary to lease such property and lease commencement. An intangible 
asset or liability resulting from in-place leases that are above or below the market rental rates are valued based upon our estimates 
of prevailing market rates for similar leases. Intangible lease assets or liabilities are amortized over the estimated, reasonably 
assured lease term of the remaining in-place leases as an adjustment to “Rental revenues” or “Real estate related depreciation and 
amortization” depending on the nature of the intangible. The valuation of assumed liabilities is based on our estimate of the 
current market rates for similar liabilities in effect at the acquisition date. 

In an acquisition of multiple properties, we must also allocate the purchase price among the properties. The allocation of the 

purchase price is based on our assessment of estimated fair value and often is based upon the expected future cash flows of the 
property and various characteristics of the markets where the property is located. The fair value may also include an enterprise 
value premium that we estimate a third party would be willing to pay for a portfolio of properties. The initial allocation of the 
purchase price is based on management’s preliminary assessment, which may differ when final information becomes available. 

Capitalization of Costs and Depreciation and Amortization 

We capitalize costs incurred in developing, renovating, rehabilitating and improving real estate assets as part of the 
investment basis. Costs incurred in making repairs and maintaining real estate assets are expensed as incurred. During the land 
development and construction periods, we capitalize interest costs, insurance, real estate taxes and certain general and 
administrative costs of the personnel performing development, renovations and rehabilitation if such costs are incremental and 
identifiable to a specific activity to get the asset ready for its intended use. Capitalized costs are included in the investment basis 
of real estate assets. We also capitalize costs incurred to successfully originate a lease that result directly from, and are essential 
to, the acquisition of that lease. Leasing costs that meet the requirements for capitalization are presented as a component of other 
assets. Upon our adoption of ASU 2017-01 Business Combinations (Topic 805) Clarifying the Definition of a Business, all 
acquisitions made subsequent to June 30, 2017 will generally be accounted for as asset acquisitions. As such all acquisition costs 
incurred as part of the purchase of real estate property acquisitions will be capitalized. Acquisition costs incurred as part of our 
real estate property prior to July 1, 2017 were expensed as acquisition costs. 

Real estate, including land, building and land improvements, tenant improvements, and furniture, fixtures and equipment, 
leasing costs and intangible lease assets and liabilities are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization, 
unless circumstances indicate that the cost cannot be recovered, in which case, the carrying value of the property is reduced to 
estimated fair value as discussed below in our policy with regards to impairment of long-lived assets. We estimate the depreciable 
portion of our real estate assets and related useful lives in order to record depreciation expense. Our ability to estimate the 
depreciable portions of our real estate assets and useful lives is critical to the determination of the appropriate amount of 
depreciation and amortization expense recorded and the carrying value of the underlying assets. Any change to the assets to be 
depreciated and the estimated depreciable lives of these assets would have an impact on the depreciation expense recognized. 

As discussed above in investments in real estate, in connection with property acquisitions, we may acquire leases with rental 
rates above or below the market rental rates. Such differences are recorded as an intangible lease asset or liability and amortized 
to “Rental revenues” over the reasonably assured term of the related leases. The unamortized balances of these assets and 
liabilities associated with the early termination of leases are fully amortized to their respective revenue line items in our 
consolidated financial statements over the shorter of the expected life of such assets and liabilities or the remaining lease term. 

Our estimate of the useful life of our assets is evaluated upon acquisition and when circumstances indicate a change in the 

useful life, which requires significant judgment regarding the economic obsolescence of tangible and intangible assets. 

13 

 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets 

We assess the carrying values of our respective long-lived assets, including goodwill, whenever events or changes in 

circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of these assets may not be fully recoverable. 

Recoverability of real estate assets is measured by comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to the estimated future 
undiscounted cash flows. In order to review our real estate assets for recoverability, we consider current market conditions, as 
well as our intent with respect to holding or disposing of the asset. Our intent with regard to the underlying assets might change as 
market conditions change, as well as other factors, especially in the current global economic environment. Fair value is 
determined through various valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow models, applying a capitalization rate to 
estimated net operating income of a property and quoted market values and third-party appraisals, where considered necessary. 
The use of projected future cash flows is based on assumptions that are consistent with our estimates of future expectations and 
the strategic plan we use to manage our underlying business. If our analysis indicates that the carrying value of the real estate 
asset is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, we recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the 
carrying value exceeds the current estimated fair value of the real estate property. 

Assumptions and estimates used in the recoverability analyses for future cash flows, discount rates and capitalization rates 
are complex and subjective. Changes in economic and operating conditions or our intent with regard to our investment that occurs 
subsequent to our impairment analyses could impact these assumptions and result in future impairment of our real estate 
properties. 

Valuation of Receivables 

We are subject to tenant defaults and bankruptcies that could affect the collection of outstanding receivables. In order to 
mitigate these risks, we perform credit reviews and analyses on prospective tenants before significant leases are executed and on 
existing tenants before properties are acquired. We specifically analyze aged receivables, customer credit-worthiness, historical 
bad debts and current economic trends when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. As a result of our 
periodic analysis, we maintain an allowance for estimated losses that may result from the inability of our tenants to make required 
payments. This estimate requires significant judgment related to the lessees’ ability to fulfill their obligations under the leases. If a 
tenant is insolvent or files for bankruptcy protection and fails to make contractual payments beyond any allowance, we may 
recognize additional bad debt expense in future periods equal to the net outstanding balances, which include amounts recognized 
as straight-line revenue not realizable until future periods. 

Consolidation 

We consolidate all entities that are wholly owned and those in which we own less than 100% but control, as well as any 
variable interest entities in which we are the primary beneficiary. We evaluate our ability to control an entity and whether the 
entity is a variable interest entity and we are the primary beneficiary through consideration of the substantive terms of the 
arrangement to identify which enterprise has the power to direct the activities of a variable interest entity that most significantly 
impacts the entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or the right to receive benefits from 
the entity. Investments in entities in which we do not control but over which we have the ability to exercise significant influence 
over operating and financial policies are presented under the equity method. Investments in entities that we do not control and 
over which we do not exercise significant influence are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, as appropriate. Our ability to 
correctly assess our influence and/or control over an entity affects the presentation of these investments in our consolidated 
financial statements.

Rental Revenue: Rental revenue increased by approximately $3,864 to $18,372 for the year ended December 31, 2017 as 

compared to $14,508 for the year ended December 31, 2016. The increase was primarily related to rental revenue from the 
acquired properties from the date of acquisition in 2017 of $3,806 and an increase of $58 from same store properties primarily 
driven by an increase of base rent of $268 offset by a decrease in straight-line rent adjustment of $198 for the year ended 
December 31, 2017. 

Tenant recoveries: Tenant recoveries increased by approximately $1,293 to $6,443 for the year ended December 31, 2017 as 

compared to $5,150 for the year ended December 31, 2016. The increase was primarily related to tenant recoveries from the 
acquisitions made during 2017 of $1,048 and an increase in tenant recoveries of $245 from same store properties for the year 
ended December 31, 2017. 

Property Expenses:  Property expenses increased $2,278 for the year ended December 31, 2017 to $8,205 as compared to 

$5,927 for the year ended December 31, 2016 primarily for expenses related to the new property acquisitions of $1,602. 
Operating expense for the same store properties increased approximately $676 primarily due to an increase in real estate taxes and 
grounds and landscaping maintenance of $510 and $115, respectively. 

Depreciation and Amortization: Depreciation and amortization expense increased by approximately $2,324 to approximately 

$13,998 for the year ended December 31, 2017 as compared to $11,674 for the year ended December 31, 2016, primarily due to 
the addition of the new property acquisitions of $2,666 offset by lower depreciation and amortization expense for the same store 
properties of $342. 

General and Administrative: General and administrative expenses increased approximately $1,480 to $5,189 for the year 
ended December 31, 2017 as compared to $3,709 for the year ended December 31, 2016. The increase is attributable primarily to 
an increase in accounting, legal and other professional expenses costs of $1,285 which included one-time non-capitalizable 
related transaction costs such as 3-14 audit fees of $83 and $127 in valuation work associated with our acquisition activity, tax 
fees for 20 LLC of $227 and non-capitalizable transaction legal costs $375, non-cash stock compensation of $435, offset partially 
by decreased Directors and Officers Insurance of $370 due to purchase of “Run of Coverage” in 2016 and occupancy costs of 
$67. 

Acquisition Expenses:  Acquisition costs increased $70 to $103 for the year ended December 31, 2017 as compared to $33 
for the year ended December 31, 2016. Acquisition expenses for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 included costs for 
acquisitions we decided not to pursue. 

Interest Expense: Interest expense decreased by approximately $29,098 to $11,581 for the year ended December 31, 2017, as 

compared to $40,679 for the year ended December 31, 2016. The decrease was due to the refinancing of the Company’s debt 
throughout 2017. The schedule below is a comparative analysis of the components of interest expense for the years ended 
December 31, 2017 and 2016. For more information about our 2017 financing transactions, see Note 7 to our consolidated audited 
financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 included elsewhere in this annual report.

Gain on disposition of equity investment: Gain on disposition of equity investment represents amounts received in excess of 

our basis for an equity investment in real estate liquidated in 2016. In 2016, we recognized gain of $2,846 on the disposition of 
the property held in the joint venture. The gain in the amount of $231 in 2017 represented final settlement of the joint venture. 

Other income: Other income represents interest income and net income received from joint ventures. The decrease in other 
income by $227 to $3 for the year ended December 31, 2017, as compared to $230 for the year ended December 31, 2016 was 
due to the disposition of the property held in the joint venture. 

Non-GAAP Financial Measures 

In this annual report on Form 10-K, we disclose NOI, EBITDA, FFO and AFFO, each of which meet the definition of “non-

GAAP financial measure” set forth in Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC. As a result, we are required to 
include in this report a statement of why management believes that presentation of these measures provides useful information to 
investors. 

None of NOI, EBITDA, FFO or AFFO should be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with 
GAAP) as an indication of our performance, and we believe that to understand our performance further NOI, EBITDA, FFO, and 
AFFO should be compared with our reported net income or net loss and considered in addition to cash flows in accordance with 
GAAP, as presented in our consolidated financial statements. 

NOI 

We consider net operating income, or NOI, to be an appropriate supplemental measure to net income because it helps both 

investors and management understand the core operations of our properties. We define NOI as total revenue (including rental 
revenue, tenant reimbursements, management, leasing and development services revenue and other income) less property-level 
operating expenses including allocated overhead. NOI excludes depreciation and amortization, general and administrative 
expenses, impairments, gain/loss on sale of real estate, interest expense, and other non-operating items. 

The following is a reconciliation from historical reported net loss, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated 

and presented in accordance with GAAP, to NOI:

We believe that earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, is helpful to investors as a 

supplemental measure of our operating performance as a real estate company because it is a direct measure of the actual operating 
results of our industrial properties. We also use this measure in ratios to compare our performance to that of our industry peers. 
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of our historical net loss to EBITDA for the periods presented.

FFO 

Funds from operations, or FFO, is a non-GAAP financial measure that is widely recognized as a measure of REIT operating 

performance. We consider FFO to be an appropriate supplemental measure of our operating performance as it is based on a net 
income analysis of property portfolio performance that excludes non-cash items such as depreciation. The historical accounting 
convention used for real estate assets requires straight-line depreciation of buildings and improvements, which implies that the 
value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values rise and fall with market conditions, 
presentations of operating results for a REIT, using historical accounting for depreciation, could be less informative. We define 
FFO, consistent with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, definition, as net income, computed 
in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, 
impairment losses and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated 
partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. Other equity REITs may not calculate FFO (in 
accordance with the NAREIT definition) as we do, and, accordingly, our FFO may not be comparable to such other REITs’ FFO. 
FFO should not be used as a measure of our liquidity, and is not indicative of funds available for our cash needs, including our 
ability to pay dividends. 

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of our historical net loss to FFO attributable to common stockholders and unit 

holders for the periods presented:

AFFO 

Adjusted funds from operation, or AFFO, is presented in addition to FFO. AFFO is defined as FFO, excluding certain non-

cash operating revenues and expenses, acquisition and transaction related costs for transactions not completed and recurring 
capitalized expenditures. Recurring capitalized expenditures includes expenditures required to maintain and re-tenant our 
properties, tenant improvements and leasing commissions. AFFO further adjusts FFO for certain other non-cash items, including 
the amortization or accretion of above or below market rents included in revenues, straight line rent adjustments, impairment 
losses, non-cash equity compensation and non-cash interest expense. 

We believe AFFO provides a useful supplemental measure of our operating performance because it provides a consistent 
comparison of our operating performance across time periods that is comparable for each type of real estate investment and is 
consistent with management’s analysis of the operating performance of our properties. As a result, we believe that the use of 
AFFO, together with the required GAAP presentations, provide a more complete understanding of our operating performance. 

As with FFO, our reported AFFO may not be comparable to other REITs’ AFFO, should not be used as a measure of our 

liquidity, and is not indicative of our funds available for our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends.

Cash Flow 

A summary of our cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 are as follows:

(1,632)
1,655 

Operating Activities:  Net cash provided by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2017 increased 
approximately $7,361 compared to the year ended December 31, 2016 primarily due to an increase in accounts payable and 
accrued expenses and depreciation expense, offset by a decrease in deferred interest during the year ended December 31, 2017 
compared to the year ended December 31, 2016. 

Investing Activities:  Net cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2017 increased approximately 
$172,259 compared to the year ended December 31, 2016 primarily due to the acquisitions of real estate properties, offset by the 
proceeds from the 2016 joint venture sale. 

Financing Activities:   Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2017 increased 

approximately $176,629 due to the net cash proceeds of $52,559 from our Offering, net borrowings under our line of credit in the 
amount of $21,325, proceeds from the MWG portfolio loan of $79,800, net cash proceeds from the Company’s issuance of Series 
A Preferred stock of $48,931, partially offset by the repayment of the preferred member interest of $20,000 as well as dividends 
paid of $1,755 and debt issuance costs of $2,576. 

Liquidity and Capital Resources 

We intend to make reserve allocations as necessary to aid our objective of preserving capital for our investors by supporting 

the maintenance and viability of properties we acquire in the future. If reserves and any other available income become 
insufficient to cover our operating expenses and liabilities, it may be necessary to obtain additional funds by borrowing, 
refinancing properties or liquidating our investments. 

Our short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds to pay for operating expenses and other expenditures directly 

associated with our properties, including: 

interest expense on outstanding indebtedness; 

•  property expenses that are not borne by our tenants under our leases; 
• 
•  general and administrative expenses; and 
•  capital expenditures for tenant improvements and leasing commissions. 

In addition, we will require funds for future dividends required to be paid on our Series A Preferred Stock. 

We intend to satisfy our short-term liquidity requirements through our existing cash, cash flow from operating activities and 

the net proceeds of any potential future offerings. 

Our long-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for acquisitions, recurring and non-recurring capital 
expenditures and scheduled debt maturities. We intend to satisfy our long-term liquidity needs through cash flow from operations,

venture transactions, and, in connection with acquisitions of additional properties, the issuance of OP units. 

Existing Indebtedness 

AIG Loan 

On October 17, 2016, certain indirect subsidiaries of our operating partnership entered into a senior secured loan agreement 

with investment entities managed by AIG Asset Management, or the AIG Loan Agreement, which provides for a loan of $120 
million, or the AIG Loan, bearing interest at 4.08% per annum, and a seven-year term maturing in October, 2023. As of 
December 31, 2017, there was $120 million outstanding under the AIG Loan Agreement. The AIG Loan Agreement provides for 
monthly payments of interest only for the first three years of the term and thereafter monthly principal and interest payments 
based on a 27-year amortization period. Our operating partnership used the net proceeds of the AIG Loan to partially repay the 
outstanding principal and accrued interest under our then-existing senior secured loan agreement with Torchlight. As of 
December 31, 2017, we are in compliance with all covenants under the AIG Loan Agreement. 

The borrowings under the AIG Loan Agreement are secured by first lien mortgages on the 20 properties held by wholly-
owned subsidiaries of Plymouth Industrial 20, LLC. The obligations under the AIG Loan Agreement are also guaranteed by our 
company and certain of our operating partnership’s wholly-owned subsidiaries. 

Torchlight Mezzanine Loan 

On October 17, 2016, Plymouth Industrial 20, a subsidiary of our operating partnership, entered into a mezzanine loan 
agreement, or the Torchlight Mezzanine Loan Agreement, with Torchlight, which provides for a loan of $30 million, or the 
Torchlight Mezzanine Loan. The Torchlight Mezzanine Loan has a seven-year term maturing in October, 2023 and bears interest 
at 15% per annum, of which 7% percent is paid currently during the first four years of the term and 10% is paid for the remainder 
of the term. The Torchlight Mezzanine Loan requires Plymouth Industrial 20 to pay a repayment premium equal to the difference 
between (x) the sum of 150% of the principal being repaid (excluding accrued interest) and (y) the sum of the actual principal 
amount being repaid and current and accrued interest paid through the date of repayment. This repayment feature operates as a 
prepayment feature since the difference will be zero at maturity. The borrowings under the Torchlight Mezzanine Loan are 
secured by, among other things, pledges of the equity interest in Plymouth Industrial 20 and each of its property-owning 
subsidiaries. The proceeds of the Torchlight Mezzanine Loan were used to partially repay the outstanding principal and accrued 
interest under our then-existing senior secured loan agreement. As of December 31, 2017, there was $30 million outstanding 
under the Torchlight Mezzanine Loan. 

KeyBank Credit Agreement 

On August 11, 2017 the Company’s operating partnership entered into a secured line of credit agreement (Line of Credit 

Agreement) with KeyBank National Association, or KeyBank and the other lenders, which matures in August 2020 with an 
optional extension through August 2021, subject to certain conditions. Borrowings under the Line of Credit Agreement bear 
interest at either (1) the base rate (determined from the highest of (a) KeyBank’s prime rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% 
and (c) the one month LIBOR rate plus 1.0%) or (2) LIBOR, plus, in either case, a spread between 250 and 300 basis points 
depending on our total leverage ratio. 

The Line of Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain certain coverage and leverage ratios and certain amounts of 

minimum net worth as well meet certain affirmative and negative covenants for credit facilities of this type. The Company is in 
compliance with all covenants at December 31, 2017. The Line of Credit Agreement is secured by certain assets of the 
Company’s operating partnership and certain of its subsidiaries and includes a Company guarantee for the payment of all 
indebtedness under the Secured Line of Credit Agreement. Borrowings outstanding amounted to $21,325 at December 31, 2017. 
Borrowings available under the Line of Credit Agreement amounted to $12,435, net of an outstanding letter of credit totaling $93, 
at December 31, 2017. 

MWG Portfolio Secured Term Loan 

On November 30, 2017, certain of our indirect subsidiaries entered into a loan agreement, the MWG Loan Agreement, with 
Special Situations Investing Group II, LLC, as lender and agent, which provides for a loan of $79.8 million, bearing interest for 
the first year at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR plus 3.10% and for the second year at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR plus 
3.35%. The MWG Loan Agreement matures in November 2019 and has one, 12-month extension option, subject to certain 
conditions. The borrowings under the MWG Loan Agreement are secured by first lien mortgages on the 15 properties held by 
wholly-owned subsidiaries of Plymouth MWG Holdings, LLC. In addition, the obligations under the Loan Agreement are 
guaranteed by the company and certain of our operating partnership’s wholly-owned subsidiaries. 

The MWG Loan Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants for credit facilities of this type. The 
MWG Loan Agreement also contains financial covenants that require the borrowers to maintain a minimum ratio of net cash flow 
to the outstanding principal balance under the loan agreement. 

19 

 
In the event of a default by the Borrowers, the agent may declare all obligations under the MWG Loan Agreement 
immediately due and payable and enforce any and all rights of the lender or the agent under the MWG Loan Agreement and 
related documents. As of December 31, 2017, there was $79.8 million outstanding under the MWG Loan Agreement. 

Contractual Obligations and Commitments 

The following table sets forth our principal obligations and commitments as of December 31, 2017:

In addition to the contractual obligations set forth in the table above, we have entered into employment agreements with 
certain of our executive officers. As approved by the compensation committee of the Board of Directors the agreements provide 
for base salaries ranging from $200 to $300 annually with discretionary cash performance awards. The agreements contain 
provisions for equity awards, general benefits, and termination and severance provisions, consistent with similar positions and 
companies. 

We also enter into contracts for maintenance and other services at certain properties from time to time. 

Redeemable Preferred Member Interests 

On October 17, 2016, and in connection with its refinancing of its Senior Loan with Torchlight, the Company issued 
Torchlight a 99.5% redeemable preferred member interest in 20 LLC in exchange for $30,553.  The redeemable preferred 
member interest was redeemed in full as of June 14, 2017. The redemption resulted in elimination of the non-controlling interest 
and an adjustment to equity (deficit) in the amount of $56,795. An adjustment to the redemption price in the first quarter of 2017 
was deemed a non-cash capital contribution in the amount of $1,019. 

The Company had classified this amount as a liability in accordance with ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity 

(ASC 480).  Because the member interest was mandatorily redeemable, the Company concluded that the required redemption of 
that interest represented a continuing interest in the properties and therefore, the issuance of the redeemable preferred member 
interest represented a financing of 20 LLC and not a sale of the properties. 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements 

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements. 

Interest Rate Risk 

ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (formerly known as SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and hedging 

Activities, as amended by SFAS No. 138, Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities), 
requires us to recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives that are not hedges must be adjusted to fair 
value and the changes in fair value must be reflected as income or expense. If the derivative is a hedge, depending on the nature 
of the hedge, changes in the fair value of derivatives are either offset against the change in fair value of the hedged assets, 
liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings or recognized in other comprehensive income, which is a component of 
stockholders equity. The ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value is immediately recognized in earnings. 

Inflation 

The majority of our leases are either triple net or provide for tenant reimbursement for costs related to real estate taxes and 
operating expenses. In addition, most of the leases provide for fixed rent increases. We believe that inflationary increases may be 
at least partially offset by the contractual rent increases and tenant payment of taxes and expenses described above. We do not 
believe that inflation has had a material impact on our historical financial position or results of operations. 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards 

We have reviewed all recently issued standards and have determined that, other than as disclosed in Note 2 to our 

consolidated financial statements appearing in this annual report on Form 10-K, such standards will not have a material impact on 
our consolidated financial statements or do not otherwise apply to our operations.  

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk 

This disclosure has been omitted as permitted under rules applicable to smaller reporting companies.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES 

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures 

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to 

provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is 
recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the forms and rules of the SEC and that such 
information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO, in a manner to allow timely decisions 
regarding required disclosures. 

In connection with the preparation of this Form 10-K, our management, including the CEO, evaluated the effectiveness of the 

design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2017. As described below, management 
identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, which is an integral component of our disclosure 
controls and procedures. As a result our management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2017, our disclosure controls and 
procedures were not effective. 

(b) Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such 

term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). The term “internal control over financial reporting” is defined as a process 
designed by, or under the supervision of, the registrant’s principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons 
performing similar functions, and effected by the registrant’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide 
reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external 
purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that: 

• 

• 

• 

pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and 
dispositions of the assets of the registrant; 
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in 
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the registrant are being 
made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the registrant; and 
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of 
the registrant’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. 

Our internal control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and board of directors regarding 
the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, 
have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with 
respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there 
are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. In addition, because of changes in 
conditions, the effectiveness of internal control may vary over time. 

The Company is a non-accelerated filer and is not subject to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes Oxley Act. Accordingly, this 

Annual Report does not contain an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal 
control over financial reporting, since the rules for smaller reporting companies provide for this exemption. 

As of December 31, 2017, management has not completed a proper evaluation, risk assessment and monitoring of the 
Company’s internal controls over financial reporting based on the 2013 Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) 
framework. Management concluded that, during the period covered by this report, that our internal controls and procedures were 
not effective. 

The specific material weaknesses that management identified in our internal controls as of December 31, 2017 is as follows: 

•  Due to limited financial and accounting resources the Company has not sufficiently documented procedures and risk 

assessment analysis or fully tested existing controls to meet the requirements of COSO’s 2013 framework. 

Company’s management concluded that in light of the material weakness described above, our Company did not maintain 
effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2017 based on the criteria set forth in the 2013 framework 
issued by the COSO. 

21 

 
 
 
 
 
(c) Remediation 

In order to remediate this deficiency, during the fourth quarter of 2017 the Company initiated a full review and evaluation of 

key processes, procedures and completion of documentation that can be monitored and tested independently. Management 
expects the remediation activities to be completed in 2018. 

If the remedial measures described above are insufficient to address the identified material weaknesses or are not 

implemented effectively, or additional deficiencies arise in the future, material misstatements in our interim or annual financial 
statements may occur in the future. Among other things, any unremediated material weaknesses could result in material post-
closing adjustments in future financial statements. 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting or in other factors during the quarter ended December 

31, 2017, that have materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM 

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of  
Plymouth Industrial REIT, Inc. 

Opinion on the Financial Statements 

We  have  audited  the  accompanying  consolidated  balance  sheets  of  Plymouth  Industrial  REIT,  Inc.  (the  “Company”)  as  of 
December 31, 2017 and 2016, the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in preferred stock and equity (deficit) 
and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2017, and the related notes and financial statement 
schedule  listed  in  the  Index  at  Item  15(b)  (collectively  referred  to  as  the  “financial  statements”).  In  our  opinion,  the  financial 
statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and 
the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2017, in conformity 
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. 

Basis for Opinion 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the 
Company's  financial  statements  based  on  our  audits.  We  are  a  public  accounting  firm  registered  with  the  Public  Company 
Accounting  Oversight  Board  (United  States)  ("PCAOB")  and  are  required  to  be  independent  with  respect  to  the  Company  in 
accordance  with  the  U.S.  federal  securities  laws  and  the  applicable  rules  and  regulations  of  the  Securities  and  Exchange 
Commission and the PCAOB. 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the 
audits  to  obtain  reasonable  assurance  about  whether  the  financial  statements  are  free  of  material  misstatement,  whether  due  to 
error  or  fraud.  The  Company  is  not  required  to  have,  nor  were  we  engaged  to  perform,  an  audit  of  its  internal  control  over 
financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but 
not  for  the  purpose  of  expressing  an  opinion  on  the  effectiveness  of  the  Company's  internal  control  over  financial  reporting. 
Accordingly, we express no such opinion. 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to 
error  or  fraud,  and  performing  procedures  that  respond  to  those  risks.  Such  procedures  included  examining,  on  a  test  basis, 
evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting 
principles  used  and  significant  estimates  made  by  management,  as  well  as  evaluating  the  overall  presentation  of  the  financial 
statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

1. Nature of the Business and Basis of Presentation 

Business 

Plymouth Industrial REIT, Inc., (the “Company” or the “REIT”) is a Maryland corporation formed on March 7, 2011. The 
Company is a full service, vertically integrated, self-administered and self-managed organization. The Company is focused on the 
acquisition, ownership and management of single and multi-tenant Class B industrial properties, including distribution centers, 
warehouses and light industrial properties, primarily located in secondary and select primary markets across the U.S.  As of 
December 31, 2017, the Company through its subsidiaries owns 49 industrial properties comprising approximately 9.2 million 
square feet. 

The Company completed its initial public offering (IPO) of common stock (Offering) on June 14, 2017, which resulted in the 

issuance of 3,060,000 shares of common stock, including 160,000 shares of the underwriters’ over-allotment exercised on July 
12, 2017, at $19.00 per share in exchange for gross proceeds of $58,140 and $52,559, net of offering costs. The Company utilized 
a portion of the proceeds from the Offering to redeem $20,000 of $25,000 non-controlling interest held by Torchlight. The 
Company issued 263,158 shares at $19.00 per share issued in a private placement with Torchlight, which occurred 
contemporaneously with the Offering, for the redemption of the remaining $5,000 non-controlling interest. 

On October 25, 2017, the Company completed the offering of 2,040,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, including 
240,000 shares of the underwriter’s over-allotment exercised on November 13, 2017, in exchange for net proceeds of $48,931. 
The Company used substantially all of the proceeds to acquire the industrial properties described in Note 5. The accompanying 
consolidated financial statements include the following entities:

Basis of Presentation 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally 

accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). 

Reclassifications 

Certain reclassifications have been made in the 2016 consolidated financial statements to conform to the 2017 presentation. 

These reclassifications have no effect on 2016 consolidated net loss.  

Use of Estimates 

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates 
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the 
date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. 
Management makes significant estimates regarding the allocation of tangible and intangible assets or business acquisitions, 
impairments of long-lived assets, stock-based compensation and its common stock warrants liability. These estimates and 
assumptions are based on management’s best estimates and judgment. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an 
ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment. Management adjusts 
such estimates when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, 
actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. 

Risks and Uncertainties 

The state of the overall economy can significantly impact the Company’s operational performance and thus impact its 

financial position.  Should the Company experience a significant decline in operational performance, it may affect the Company’s 
ability to make distributions to its stockholders, service debt, or meet other financial obligations.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

Liquidity and Going Concern 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis which assumes that the Company will 
continue as a going concern and which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in 
the ordinary course of business. The Company’s 2016 financial statements included a statement indicating substantial doubt with 
regard to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern as of December 31, 2016. The Company believes that the net 
proceeds of the Offering along with the net proceeds from the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock, and borrowings of 
$12,435 available under the line of credit have removed substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going 
concern. 

The Company believes the cash on hand at December 31, 2017, available borrowings under its line of credit and cash 
expected to be provided by future operating activities will allow the Company to meet its obligations through March 31, 2019. 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements 

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Stock Compensation – Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment 
Accounting, (“ASU 2016-09”), which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including 
the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, classification on the statement of cash flows 
and policy elections on the impact for forfeitures. The Company adopted ASU 2016-09 in fiscal year 2017 and its adoption had 
no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (“ASU 2016-02”), which requires a lessee to recognize assets and 

liabilities on the balance sheet for operating leases and changes many key definitions, including the definition of a lease. The 
update includes a short-term lease exception for leases with a term of 12 months or less, in which a lessee can make an accounting 
policy election not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. Lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases 
at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. The modified retrospective approach 
includes a number of optional practical expedients that entities may elect to apply as well as transition guidance specific to 
nonstandard leasing transactions. The new standard requires lessors to account for leases using an approach that is substantially 
equivalent to existing guidance for sales-type leases, direct financing leases and operating leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for 
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently 
evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations, and 
plans to adopt this standard effective January 1, 2019. 

At December 31, 2017, we have one office space lease that will require us to measure and record a right-of-use asset and a 
lease liability upon adoption of the standard. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this pronouncement on 
our consolidated financial statements. 

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and 
Cash Payments (“ASU 2016-15”), to address diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented 
and classified in the statement of cash flows. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, 
including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-15 to have a 
material impact on its consolidated financial statements. 

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (“ASU 2016-
18”). The ASU requires an entity to explain the changes in the total of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and restricted cash 
equivalents on the statement of cash flows and to provide a reconciliation of the totals in that statement to the related captions in 
the balance sheet when the cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and restricted cash equivalents are presented in more than one 
line item on the balance sheet. This ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and is 
required to be adopted using a retrospective approach, with early adoption permitted. The Company will adopt this standard 
effective January 1, 2018. The Company has determined the impact of adopting ASU 2016-18 will result in the inclusion of 
restricted cash in total cash and in the determination of changes in cash in its statements of cash flows. The presentation of 
restricted cash on the balance sheet will remain the same. Restricted cash amounted to $1,174 at December 31, 2017. 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01 Business Combinations (Topic 805) Clarifying the Definition of a Business. 

The ASU clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether 
transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. Key differences between business 
combinations and asset acquisitions include: Transaction costs are capitalized in an asset acquisition but expensed in a business 
combination. Identifiable assets, liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interests are generally recognized and measured as of 
the acquisition date at fair value in a business combination, but are measured by allocating the cost of the acquisition on a relative 
fair value basis in an asset acquisition. Public business entities should apply the amendments to annual periods beginning after 
December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company early adopted 
ASU 2017-01 for acquisitions subsequent to June 30, 2017. Acquisition costs capitalized since adoption of ASU 2017-01 for the 
year ending December 31, 2017 was approximately $5,470.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting, which 

provides updated guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award would require an 
entity to apply modification accounting under the topic. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 
2017 and interim periods within those years with early adoption permitted, and should be applied prospectively to an award 
modified on or after the adoption date. The Company will adopt this standard effective January 1, 2018. The adoption of ASU 
2017-09 is not expected to materially impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements. 

On May 28, 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). ASC 606 

establishes principles for reporting the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows arising from an entity’s 
contracts with customers. The core principle of the new standard is that an entity recognizes revenue to represent the transfer of 
goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange 
for those goods or services. The FASB subsequently issued additional ASUs which provide practical expedients, technical 
corrections and clarification of the new standard. ASC 606 is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim reporting 
periods within those periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early application is permitted for annual periods beginning 
after December 15, 2016. ASC 606 permits the use of either the full retrospective transition method or a modified retrospective 
transition method. We will adopt ASC 606 on January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective method. 

As part of our assessment and implementation of ASC 606, we evaluated each of our revenue streams to determine the 

sources of revenue that are impacted by ASC 606. We evaluated the impact of ASC 606 on the timing and pattern of revenue 
recognition and determined there was no change as compared to current accounting practice. Accordingly, we do not expect the 
adoption of ASC 606 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. 

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not 

require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. 

Segments 

The Company has one reportable segment–industrial properties.  These properties have similar economic characteristics and 

also meet the other criteria that permit the properties to be aggregated into one reportable segment. 

Revenue Recognition and Tenant Receivables and Rental Revenue Components 

Minimum rental income from real estate operations is recognized on a straight-line basis.  The straight-line rent calculation 

on leases includes the effects of rent concessions and scheduled rent increases, and the calculated straight-line rent income is 
recognized over the lives of the individual leases.  The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts receivable and 
straight-line rents receivable, based upon estimates determined by management.  Management specifically analyzes aged 
receivables, tenant credit-worthiness and current economic trends when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful 
accounts. At December 31, 2017 and 2016 the Company did not recognize an allowance for doubtful accounts. 

For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, rental income was derived from various tenants. As such, future receipts 

are dependent upon the financial strength of the lessees and their ability to perform under the lease agreements. 

For the year ending December 31, 2017 there were no tenants that represented 10% or greater of rental revenue. For the year 

ended December 31, 2016, there were two tenants, Pier One and Perseus, who represented 10% or greater of rental revenue, 
12.7% and 10%, respectively. 

Rental revenue and tenant recoveries is comprised of the following:

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash 
equivalents. There were no cash equivalents at December 31, 2017 and 2016. The Company maintains cash and restricted cash, 
which includes tenant security deposits and cash collateral for its borrowings discussed in Note 5, cash held in escrow for real 
estate tax, insurance and tenant capital improvement and leasing commissions, in bank deposit accounts, which at times may 
exceed federally insured limits. As of December 31, 2017, the Company has not realized any losses in such cash accounts and 
believes it is not exposed to any significant risk of loss. 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments 

The Company applies various valuation approaches in determining the fair value of its financial assets and liabilities within a 
hierarchy that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that observable 
inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability 
based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the 
Company’s assumptions about the inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed 
based on the best information available in the circumstances. The fair value hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on 
the source of inputs as follows: 

Level 1— Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. 

Level 2— Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in 
markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers 
are observable. 

Level 3— Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable. 

The availability of observable inputs can vary among the various types of financial assets and liabilities. To the extent that 
the valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value 
requires more judgment. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value 
hierarchy. In such cases, for financial statement disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair 
value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the overall fair value measurement. Level 
3 inputs are applied in determining the fair value of warrants to purchase common stock in the amount of $160 at December 31, 
2017. See Note 8. 

Financial instruments include cash, restricted cash, cash held in escrow and reserves, accounts receivable, senior secured 
debt, mezzanine debt to investor and deferred interest, line of credit, accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current 
liabilities. The values of these financial instruments approximate their fair value due to their relatively short maturities and 
prevailing interest rates. 

Debt Issuance Costs 

Debt issuance costs are reflected as a reduction to the respective loan amounts in the form of a debt discount. Amortization of 

this expense is included in interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations. 

Debt issuance costs amounted to $6,475 and $4,799 at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and related accumulated 

amortization amounted to $982 and $113 at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Unamortized debt issuance costs 
amounted to $5,493 and $4,686 at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. 

Stock Based Compensation 

The Company grants stock based compensation awards to our employees and directors typically in the form of restricted 
shares of common stock.  The Company accounts for its stock-based employee compensation in accordance with ASU 2016-
09, Compensation — Stock Compensation Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.  The Company 
measures stock-based compensation expense based on the fair value of the awards on the grant date and recognizes the expense 
ratably over the vesting period. Forfeitures of unvested shares are recognized in the period the forfeiture occurs. 

Comprehensive Loss 

Comprehensive loss includes net loss as well as other changes in equity (deficit) that result from transactions and economic 

events other than those with members. There was no difference between net loss and comprehensive loss for the years ended 
December 31, 2017 and 2016.

(all dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share data) 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

Earnings per Share 

The Company follows the two-class methold when computing net loss per common share as the Company has issued shares 
that meet the definition of participating securities. The two-class method determines net loss per share for each class of common 
and participating securities according to dividends declared or accumulated and participation rights in undistributed earnings. The 
two-class method requires income available to common stockholders for the period to be allocated between common and 
participating securities based upon their respective rights to receive dividends as if all income for the period had been distributed. 
Diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share since the Company does not have any common stock equivalents 
such as stock options. The warrants are not included in the computation of diluted net loss per share as they are anti-dilutive for 
the periods presented. 

Consolidation 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements include its financial statements, and those of its wholly-owned subsidiaries 

and controlling interests. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company 
considers the issuance of member interests in entities that hold its properties under the guidance of ASC 360 Property, Plant and 
Equipment (ASC 360), and ASC 976, Real Estate, (ASC 976) as referenced by ASC 810, Consolidation, (ASC 810). See Note 10. 

Income Taxes 

The Company has operated in a manner that allows it to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. The Company 
filed its initial Form 1120-REIT as its tax return for the tax year ended December 31, 2012. The Company utilizes an Umbrella 
Partnership Real Estate Investment Trust (“UPREIT”) organizational structure with the intent to hold properties and securities 
through an Operating Partnership. 

The Company elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as 
amended, and has operated as such beginning with the tax year ending December 31, 2012. To qualify as a REIT, the Company 
must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of its annual 
REIT taxable income to stockholders (which is computed without regard to the dividends-paid deduction or net capital gain and 
which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP). As a REIT, the Company generally will 
not be subject to federal income tax on income that we distribute as dividends to its stockholders. If the Company fails to qualify 
as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate income tax rates 
and generally will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for the four tax years 
following the year during which qualification is lost, unless it can obtain relief under certain statutory provisions. Such an event 
could materially and adversely affect the net income and net cash available for distribution to stockholders. However, the 
Company intends to continue to operate in a manner that allows it to qualify for treatment as a REIT. 

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S federal jurisdiction and various state and local jurisdictions. The statute of 
limitations for the Company’s income tax returns is generally three years and as such, the Company’s returns that remain subject 
to examination would be primarily from 2014 and thereafter. Accrued interest and penalties will be recorded as income tax 
expense, if the Company records a liability in the future. 

As is more fully described in Note 7, the refinancing transaction that took place on October 17, 2016 resulted in the Company 

realizing cancellation of indebtedness income of $62,751 for income tax purposes. Cancellation of indebtedness income is 
includable in the gross income of all taxpayers under the Internal Revenue Code. The inclusion of $62,751 of cancellation of 
indebtedness income in the Company’s 2016 gross income would potentially result in federal alternative minimum tax and 
various state and local income taxes. 

However, according to the Internal Revenue Code, due to the Company’s insolvency both before and after the debt 

refinancing transaction, cancellation of indebtedness income is excluded from the gross income of a taxpayer if the taxpayer is 
insolvent when the discharge takes place. As a condition of excluding cancellation of indebtedness income from the gross income, 
a taxpayer must reduce certain tax attributes, such as its net operating losses (NOL). 

To the extent the Company does not utilize the full amount of the annual federal NOLs, the unused amount may normally be 

carried forward for 20 years to offset taxable income in future years. The Company had federal NOL carryforwards originating 
from 2012 through 2016 of approximately $29,224, inclusive of the $62,751 cancellation of indebtedness that took place on 
October 17, 2016. The Company incurred a federal taxable loss during 2017 of approximately $2,951, resulting in net operating 
loss carryforwards to 2018 of approximately $32,175. 

The Company’s net tax basis of real estate assets amounted to $324,654 and $150,506 as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, 

respectively.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

Real Estate Property Acquisitions 

In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board, (FASB), ASC 805-10 “Business Combinations”, the assets and 

liabilities acquired are recorded at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The Company has implemented ASU 2017-01 as of 
July 2017 and has concluded that the acquisition of properties will be accounted for as an asset acquisition as opposed to a 
business combination. The significant difference between the two accounting models is that within an acquisition of assets, 
acquisition costs are capitalized as a cost of the assets, whereas in a business combination acquisition costs are expensed and not 
included as part of the consideration transferred. 

The accounting for real estate property acquisitions requires estimates and judgment as to expectations for future cash flows 
of the acquired property, the allocation of those cash flows to identifiable intangible assets, and in determining the estimated fair 
value for assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The amounts allocated to lease intangibles (leases in place, leasing commissions, 
tenant relationships, and above and below market leases) are based on management’s estimates and assumptions, as well as other 
information compiled by management, including independent third party analysis and market data and are generally amortized 
over the remaining life of the related leases excluding renewal options, except in the case of below market fixed rate rent 
amounts, which are amortized over the applicable renewal period. Such inputs are Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. 

Real Estate and Depreciation 

Real estate properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation of buildings and other improvements is 

computed using the straight-line method over the estimated remaining useful lives of the assets, which generally range from 11 to 
34 years for buildings and 3 to 13 years for site improvements.  If the Company determines that impairment has occurred, the 
affected assets are reduced to their fair value. Building improvements are capitalized, while maintenance and repair expenses are 
charged to expense as incurred.  Significant renovations and improvements that improve or extend the useful life of the assets are 
capitalized. 

Amortization of Deferred Lease Intangibles - Assets and Liabilities 

Deferred lease intangible assets consist of leases in place, leasing commissions, tenant relationships, and above market leases. 
Deferred lease Intangible liabilities represent below market leases. These intangibles have been recorded at their fair market value 
in connection with the acquisition of properties. Intangible assets are generally amortized over the remaining life of the related 
leases excluding renewal options, except in the case of below market fixed rate rent amounts, which are amortized over the 
applicable renewal period. 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets 

The Company assesses the carrying values of our respective long-lived assets, including goodwill, whenever events or 

changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of these assets may not be fully recoverable. 

Recoverability of real estate assets is measured by comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to the estimated future 

undiscounted cash flows. In order to review our real estate assets for recoverability, the Company considers current market 
conditions, as well as our intent with respect to holding or disposing of the asset. Our intent with regard to the underlying assets 
might change as market conditions change, as well as other factors. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques, 
including discounted cash flow models, applying a capitalization rate to estimated net operating income of a property and quoted 
market values and third-party appraisals, where considered necessary. If our analysis indicates that the carrying value of the real 
estate asset is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, we recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which 
the carrying value exceeds the current estimated fair value of the real estate property. The Company has determined there is no 
impairment of value of long lived assets. 

Equity Method of Accounting 

The Company accounted for its 50.3% investment in a real estate joint venture made in 2013, whose property was sold in 
2016, under the equity method of accounting since the Company did not, and does not, control but had the ability to exercise 
significant influence on the entity. Under the equity method of accounting, the Company recognized its proportional share of net 
income or loss as determined under GAAP in our results of operations. The Company has no investments accounted for under the 
equity method of accounting at December 31, 2017. As a result of the sale of the property in 2016 by the joint venture and 
subsequent liquidation in 2017, the Company recorded a gain on investment of $231 and $2,846 for the years ended December 
31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 

Controlling Interests 

The Company determines whether it holds a controlling financial interest in an entity by first evaluating whether it is required 

to apply the variable interest entity (“VIE”) model to the entity. Where the Company holds current or potential rights that give it 
the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance combined with a 
variable interest that gives it the right to receive potentially significant benefits or the obligation to absorb potentially significant 
losses, the Company is the primary beneficiary of that VIE. When changes occur to the design of an entity, the Company 
reconsiders whether it is subject to the VIE model. The Company continuously evaluates whether it is the primary beneficiary of a 
consolidated VIE. 

To the extent the Company is not required to apply the VIE model, the Company follows the control model for consolidation 
purposes and considers instances whether its ownership exceeds 50% of the voting rights of the entity and whether other investors 
have liquidating, kick-out or substantive participating rights. 

With respect to in substance real estate transactions, the Company considers guidance of ASC 360 and ASC 976, as 

referenced by ASC 810, for issuance of membership interests prior to any deconsolidation of assets. See Note 10. 

3. Reverse Stock Split 

On May 1, 2017, the Company amended its charter and effected a 1-for-4 reverse stock split with respect to all then-

outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock. All per share amounts and number of shares in the financial statements and 
related notes have been retroactively restated to reflect the reverse stock split.

On October 17, 2016, the Company completed a reorganization of its subsidiary structure in connection with the refinancing 

of the Company’s existing debt. The Company issued non-controlling interests to a financial investor and lender, Torchlight, in 
newly established legal entities to hold the properties owned by the REIT. 

Specifically, the Company refinanced its Senior Loan with Torchlight, which had a carrying value of $237,751 as of that 

date, through the following steps: 

•  The Company, through its newly created subsidiary 20 LLC, borrowed $120,000 in the form of a senior secured loan from 
investment entities managed by AIG Asset Management (the “AIG Loan”). The Company used the net proceeds of these 
borrowings to reduce the Senior Loan with Torchlight. 

•  The Company, through 20 LLC, issued a mezzanine term loan (“Mezzanine Loan”) in the amount of $30,000 to an 

investment fund controlled by Torchlight, in satisfaction of $30,000 of the Senior Loan with Torchlight. 

•  The Company, through 20 LLC, issued a 99.5% redeemable preferred member interest in 20 LLC in the amount of $30,553 

to an affiliate of Torchlight in satisfaction of $30,553 of the Senior Loan with Torchlight. 

The value of the consideration transferred by the Company to Torchlight totaled $175,000 which consisted of (a) net cash 
transferred of $114,447, (b) debt satisfied in the amount of $30,000 through the issuance of the Mezzanine Loan and (c) the debt 
satisfied in the amount of $30,553 through the issuance of the redeemable preferred member interest. 

The Company accounted for the difference between the carrying value of the Senior Loan of $237,751 and the value of the 
consideration transferred of $175,000, or $62,751 as a capital contribution pursuant to the guidelines of ASC 470-50-40-2 since 
the refinancing was between the Company and Torchlight, a related party. 

The terms of the refinanced debt are discussed below and the terms of the redeemable preferred member interest in 20 LLC 

are discussed in Note 10. 

$120,000 AIG Loan 

Certain indirect subsidiaries of our Operating Partnership have entered into a senior secured loan agreement with investment 

entities managed by AIG Asset Management (the “AIG Loan”). 

As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, there was $120,000 of indebtedness outstanding under the AIG Loan. The AIG Loan 
bears interest at 4.08% per annum and has a seven-year term maturing in October, 2023. The AIG Loan provides for monthly 
payments of interest only for the first three years of the term and thereafter monthly principal and interest payments based on a 
27-year amortization period. 

The borrowings under the AIG Loan are secured by first lien mortgages on the 20 LLC properties. The obligations under the 

AIG Loan are also guaranteed by our Company and each of our Operating Partnership’s wholly-owned subsidiaries. 

The AIG Loan agreement contains customary representations and warranties, as well as affirmative and negative covenants. 
The negative covenants include restrictions on additional indebtedness, restrictions on liens, fundamental changes, dispositions, 
restricted payments, change in nature of business, transactions with affiliates and burdensome agreements. The AIG Loan 
contains financial covenants that require minimum liquidity and Net Worth. The AIG Loan is subject to acceleration upon certain 
specified events of defaults, including breaches of representations or covenants, failure to pay other material indebtedness, failure 
to pay taxes or a change of control of our company, as defined in the senior secured loan agreement. The Company is in 
compliance with the respective covenants. The Company has no right to prepay all or any part of the AIG Loan before November 
1, 2019. Following that date, the AIG Loan can only be paid in full, and a prepayment penalty would be assessed, as defined in 
the agreement.

7. Borrowing Arrangements (continued) 

The borrowings amounted to $116,700 and $116,053, net of $3,300 and $3,947 of unamortized debt issuance costs at 

December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. 

MWG Portfolio Secured Term Loan 

On November 30, 2017, certain of our indirect subsidiaries entered into a loan agreement, the MWG Loan Agreement, with 

Special Situations Investing Group II, LLC, as lender and agent, which provides for a loan of $79,800, bearing interest for the 
first year at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR plus 3.10% and for the second year at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR plus 3.35%. 
The MWG Loan Agreement matures in November, 2019 and has one, 12-month extension option, subject to certain conditions. 
The borrowings under the MWG Loan Agreement are secured by first lien mortgages on the 15 properties held by wholly-owned 
subsidiaries of Plymouth MWG Holdings LLC. In addition, the obligations under the Loan Agreement are guaranteed by the 
company and certain of our operating partnership’s wholly-owned subsidiaries. 

The MWG Loan Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants for credit facilities of this type, including 

limitations with respect to indebtedness, liens, investments, distributions, mergers and acquisitions, dispositions of assets and 
transactions with affiliates. The MWG Loan Agreement also contains financial covenants that require the borrowers to maintain a 
minimum ratio of net cash flow (less management fees) to the outstanding principal balance under the loan agreement of at least 
9.0%. In the event of a default by the Borrowers, the agent may declare all obligations under the MWG Loan Agreement 
immediately due and payable and enforce any and all rights of the lender or the agent under the MWG Loan Agreement and 
related documents. The Company is in compliance with the respective covenants. 

Borrowings outstanding amounted to $78,731, net of unamortized debt issuance costs of $1,069 at December 31, 2017. 

$30,000 Mezzanine Loan 

20 LLC has entered into a mezzanine loan agreement with Torchlight as partial payment of its prior Senior Loan. The 
Mezzanine Loan has an original principal amount of $30,000, and bears interest at 15% per annum, of which 7% percent is paid 
currently during the first four years of the term and 10% is paid for the remainder of the term, and matures in October, 2023. 
Unpaid interest accrues and is added to the outstanding principal amount of the loan. The Mezzanine Loan requires borrower to 
pay a prepayment premium equal to the difference between (1) the sum of 150% of the principal being repaid (excluding the 
accrued interest) and (2) the sum of the actual principal amount being repaid and current and accrued interest paid through the 
date of repayment. This repayment feature operates as a prepayment feature since the difference between (1) and (2) will be zero 
at maturity. 

As additional consideration for the Mezzanine Loan, 20 LLC granted Torchlight under the Mezzanine Loan, a profit 
participation in the form of the right to receive 25% of net income and capital proceeds generated by the Company Portfolio 
following debt service payments and associated costs (the “TL Participation”). The TL Participation was terminated as of June 14, 
2017 in consideration of the Company issuing warrants to Torchlight to acquire 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock 
at a price of $23.00 per share. The warrants have a five-year term and are more fully discussed in Note 8. The profit participation 
was zero for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016. 

The borrowings under the Mezzanine Loan are secured by, among other things, pledges of the equity interest in 20 LLC and 

each of its property-owning subsidiaries. 

Borrowings under the Mezzanine Loan amounted to $29,364 and $29,262, net of $636 and $738 of unamortized debt 

issuance costs at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. 

Deferred interest amounted to $1,357 and $207 at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and is presented separately in 

the consolidated balance sheets. 

Line of Credit Agreement 

On August 11, 2017 the Company’s operating partnership entered into a secured line of credit agreement (Line of Credit 

Agreement) with KeyBank National Association, or KeyBank and the other lenders, which matures in August 2020 with an 
optional extension through August 2021, subject to certain conditions. Borrowings under the Line of Credit Agreement bear 
interest at either (1) the base rate (determined from the highest of (a) KeyBank’s prime rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% 
and (c) the one month LIBOR rate plus 1.0%) or (2) LIBOR, plus, in either case, a spread between 250 and 300 basis points 
depending on our total leverage ratio.

7. Borrowing Arrangements (continued) 

The Line of Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain certain coverage and leverage ratios and certain amounts of 
minimum net worth as well meet certain affirmative and negative covenants for credit facilities of this type, including limitations 
with respect to use of proceeds, indebtedness, liens, investments, distributions, mergers and acquisitions, dispositions of assets 
and transactions with affiliates. The Company is in compliance with all covenants at December 31, 2017. The Line of Credit 
Agreement is secured by certain assets of the Company’s operating partnership and certain of its subsidiaries and includes a 
Company’s guarantee for the payment of all indebtedness under the Secured Line of Credit Agreement. Borrowings outstanding 
amounted to $20,837, net of unamortized debt issuance costs of $488 at December 31, 2017. Borrowings available under the Line 
of Credit Agreement amounted to $12,435, net of a letter of credit totaling $93, at December 31, 2017. 

Principal payments on the Company’s long-term debt due in each of the next five fiscal years and thereafter as of December 

31, 2017 are as follows:

Common Stock Warrants 

On June 14, 2017, the Company issued warrants to Torchlight to acquire 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at 

a strike price of $23.00 per share, which expire in 2022. 

The warrants were accounted for as a liability on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as they contain provisions 
that are considered outside of the Company’s control, such as the holders’ option to receive cash in lieu and other securities in the 
event of a reorganization of the Company’s common stock underlying such warrants. The fair value of these warrants is re-
measured at each financial reporting period with any changes in fair value recognized as a change in fair value of warrant liability 
in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. 

A roll-forward of the common stock warrants is as follows:

Characterization of Common Stock Dividends (unaudited) 

Earnings and profits (as defined under the Internal Revenue Code), the current and accumulated amounts of which determine 

the taxability of distributions to stockholders, vary from net income attributable to common stockholders and taxable income 
because of the different depreciation recovery periods, depreciation methods, and other items. Distributions in excess of earnings 
and profits generally constitute a return of capital. The following table shows the characterization of the distributions on the 
Company’s common stock for the year ended December 31, 2017. The Company did not pay any dividends prior to its initial 
public offering on June 14, 2017.

9. Series A Preferred Stock 

In the fourth quarter of 2017, we completed the offering of 2,040,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, including 240,000 

shares exercised under the underwriter’s over-allotment, at a per share price of $25.00 for net cash proceeds of $48,931. The 
offering of the Series A Preferred Stock was registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, pursuant to a 
registration statement on Form S-11 declared effective on October 18, 2017. 

The relevant features of the Series A Preferred Stock are as follows: 

Liquidation Rights 

In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up of the affairs of the Company, the holders 
of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Corporation available for distribution 
to its stockholders before any payment shall be made to the holders of Common Stock, an amount per share equal to $25.00 per 
share, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends. 

Redemption Rights 

Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock have the right to require the Company to redeem for cash, their shares of Series A 

Preferred Stock in the event of a change in control of the Company or a delisting of the Company’s shares. Since this contingent 
redemption right is outside of the control of the Company, the Company has presented its Series A Preferred Stock as temporary 
equity. 

The Company has the right to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock at its option commencing on December 31, 2022 at 
$25.00 per share, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends. The Company also has the right to redeem for the shares of Series A 
Preferred Stock in the event of a change in control of the Company or a delisting of the Company’s shares. 

Conversion 

The shares of Series A Preferred Stock are not convertible. 

Voting Rights 

Holders of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock generally do not have any voting rights, except in the event dividends are in 

arrears for six or more quarterly periods (whether or not consecutive), the number of directors of the Company’s board of 
directors will automatically be increased by two and holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, voting together as a single 
class with the holders of any other then-outstanding class or series of capital stock ranking on parity with the Series A Preferred 
Stock upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable, or collectively, any Voting Preferred Stock and the 
holders of Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to vote for the election of two additional directors to serve on our board of 
directors, until all unpaid dividends for past dividend periods shall have been paid in full. 

Protective Rights  

As long as the shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Company cannot, without the affirmative vote or 

consent of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock voting together as a single class

9. Series A Preferred Stock (continued) 

Dividend Rights 

When, as and if authorized by our board of directors, holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive cumulative 

cash dividends from, and including, the issue date, payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and 
December of each year, beginning on December 31, 2017 until December 31, 2024, at the rate of 7.5% per annum on the $25.00 
liquidation preference per share (equivalent to a fixed annual rate of $1.875 per share (“Initial Rate”)). 

On and after December 31, 2024, if any shares of Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Company will pay cumulative 
cash dividends on each then-outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock at an annual dividend rate equal to the Initial Rate plus 
an additional 1.5% of the liquidation preference per annum, which will increase by an additional 1.5% of the liquidation 
preference per annum on each subsequent December 31 thereafter, subject to a maximum annual dividend rate of 11.5% while the 
Series A Preferred Stock remains outstanding. 

On December 1, 2017, our board of directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.46875 per Series A preferred 

share payable to stockholders of record on December 15, 2017. The initial dividend was pro-rated to $0.3542 to reflect the period 
commencing October 25, 2017, the original issuance date, and ending December 31, 2017 and was paid on January 2, 2018 in the 
aggregate amount of $723. The dividend amount of $723 was deposited with the transfer agent as of December 31, 2017. 

The following table shows the characterization of the distributions on the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock for the year 
ended December 31, 2017. The Company did not pay any dividends prior to the offering of its Series A Preferred Stock offering 
on October 25, 2017.

Characterization of Preferred Stock Dividends (unaudited) 

Earnings and profits (as defined under the Internal Revenue Code), the current and accumulated amounts of which determine 

the taxability of distributions to stockholders, vary from net income attributable to common stockholders and taxable income 
because of the different depreciation recovery periods, depreciation methods, and other items. Distributions in excess of earnings 
and profits generally constitute a return of capital. The following table shows the characterization of the distributions on the 
Company’s Series A Preferred Stock for the year ended December 31, 2017. The Company did not pay any dividends prior to the 
offering of its Series A Preferred Stock offering on October 25, 2017.

10. Non-Controlling Interests 

Non-controlling Interests Previously Held by Torchlight 

As discussed in Note 1, and in connection with the refinancing of the Company’s debt on October 17, 2016, the Company 

established the following subsidiaries: 

Plymouth Industrial 20 Financial LLC 

The REIT through its operating partnership Plymouth Industrial OP, LP is the sole member of Plymouth Industrial 20 

Financial LLC. 

Plymouth Industrial 20 LLC (20 LLC) 

The REIT through Plymouth Industrial 20 Financial LLC, was the managing member in 20 LLC with a 0.5% ownership 
interest. An affiliate of Torchlight held the remaining 99.5% interest in 20 LLC. This 99.5% interest was redeemed on June 14, 
2017 by the REIT and 20 LLC is now a single member LLC with Plymouth Industrial 20 Financial LLC as the sole member. The 
proportionate share of the loss attributed to the non-controlling interest held by Torchlight was $4,674 for the year ended 
December 31, 2017. The redemption resulted in elimination of the non-controlling interest and an adjustment to equity (deficit) in 
the amount of $56,795. An adjustment to the redemption price in the first quarter was deemed a non-cash capital contribution in 
the amount of $1,019. The Company included $5,582 in restricted cash in the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2016 as 
it represented collateral for the preferred member interest. The amount was released from restricted cash in February, 2017 and 
was applied to the redeemable preferred member interest.

10. Non-Controlling Interests (continued) 

20 Individual LLC’s for Properties 

The individual LLC’s which hold the properties associated with the partnership interests are wholly owned subsidiaries of 20 

LLC. 

In connection with the redemption of the preferred member interest on June 14, 2017 the Company acquired the non-

controlling interest in Plymouth Industrial 20 LLC and therefore, the 20 individual properties. 

Operating Partnership Units Acquisitions 

In connections with the acquisition of the Shadeland Portfolio on August 11, 2017 as discussed in Note 5, the Company, 

through is Operating Partnership issued 421,438 Operating Partnership Units (“OP Units”) at $19.00 per OP Unit for a total of 
approximately $8,007 to the former owners of the Shadeland Portfolio. The holders of the OP Units are entitled to receive 
distributions concurrent with the dividends paid on our common stock. A pro-rated distribution equal to a quarterly distribution of 
$.3750 per OP Unit or $88 in the aggregate for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 was paid October 31, 2017. The 
proportionate share of the loss attributed to the partnership units was $646 for the year ended December 31, 2017. 

11. Incentive Award Plan 

In April 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted, and in June 2014 the Company’s stockholders approved, the 2014 

Incentive Award Plan, or Plan, under which the Company may grant cash and equity incentive awards to eligible service 
providers in order to attract, motivate and retain the talent for which we compete. The aggregate number of shares of the 
Company’s common stock and/or LTIP units of partnership interest in the Company’s Operating Partnership, or LTIP units that 
are available for issuance under awards granted pursuant to the Plan is 750,000 shares/LTIP units. Shares and units granted under 
the Plan may be authorized but unissued shares/LTIP units, or, if authorized by the board of directors, shares purchased in the 
open market. If an award under the Plan is forfeited, expires or is settled for cash, any shares/LTIP units subject to such award 
may, to the extent of such forfeiture, expiration or cash settlement, be used again for new grants under the Plan. However, the 
following shares/LTIP units may not be used again for grant under the Plan: (1) shares/LTIP units tendered or withheld to satisfy 
grant or exercise price or tax withholding obligations associated with an award; (2) shares subject to a stock appreciation right, or 
SAR, that are not issued in connection with the stock settlement of the SAR on its exercise; and (3) shares purchased on the open 
market with the cash proceeds from the exercise of options. The maximum number of shares that may be issued under the Plan 
upon the exercise of incentive stock options is 750,000. 

The Plan provides for the grant of stock options, including incentive stock options, or ISOs, and nonqualified stock options, 

or NSOs, restricted stock, dividend equivalents, stock payments, restricted stock units, or RSUs, performance shares, other 
incentive awards, LTIP units, SARs, and cash awards. In addition, the Company will grant its Directors restricted stock as part of 
their remuneration. Shares granted as part of the Plan vest equally over a four-year period while those granted to the Company’s 
Directors vest equally over a three-year period. Holders of restricted shares of common stock have voting rights and rights to 
receive dividends, however, the restricted shares of common stock may not be sold, transferred, assigned or pledged and are 
subject to forfeiture prior to the respective vesting period. The following table is a summary of the total restricted shares granted 
for the year ended December 31, 2017: 

Unvested restricted stock at January 1, 2017

The Company recorded equity-based compensation in the amount of $435 for the year ended December 31, 2017, which is 

included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. Equity-based 
compensation expense for shares issued to employers and directors is based on the grant-date fair value of the award and 
recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite period of the award. The unrecognized compensation expense associated 
with the Company’s restricted shares of common stock at December 31, 2017 was approximately $2,683 and is expected to be 
recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 3.5 years. The weighted average fair value of the 164,078 restricted 
shares granted was approximately $3,114 with a weighted average fair value of $18.98 per share. The fair value related to the 
restricted stock was calculated based on the stock price on the date of the grant.

The Company uses the two-class method of computing earnings per common share in which participating securities are 
included within the basic EPS calculation. The amount allocated to participating securities is according to dividends declared 
(whether paid or unpaid). The restricted stock does not have any participatory rights in undistributed earnings. Our unvested 
shares of restricted stock are accounted for as participating securities as they contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends. 

In periods where there is a net loss, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding used to calculate both basic 

and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is the same. The Company’s potential dilutive securities 
include the 250,000 shares of common stock warrants and 164,078 shares of restricted common stock. The stock warrants and 
restricted common shares have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share attributable to common 
stockholders as the effect of including them would reduce the net loss per share.

14. Commitments and Contingencies (continued) 

Employment Agreements 

The Company has entered into employment agreements with the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief 
Investment Officer, and Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. As approved by the compensation committee of 
the Board of Directors the agreements provide for base salaries ranging from $200 to $300 annually with discretionary cash 
performance awards. The agreements contain provisions for equity awards, general benefits, and termination and severance 
provisions, consistent with similar positions and companies. 

Legal Proceedings 

The Company is not currently party to any material legal proceedings. At each reporting date, the Company evaluates 
whether or not a potential loss amount or a potential range of loss is probable and reasonably estimable under the provisions of 
the authoritative guidance that addresses accounting for contingencies. The Company expenses as incurred the costs related to 
such legal proceedings. 

Contingent Liability  

In conjunction with the issuance of the OP Units for the Shadeland Portfolio acquisition, the agreement contains a provision 

for the Company to provide tax protection to the holders if the acquired properties are sold in a transaction that would result in the 
recognition of taxable income or gain prior to the sixth anniversary of the acquisition. The Company intends to hold this 
investment and has no plans to sell or transfer any interest that would give rise to a taxable transaction. 

15. Retirement Plan 

The Company in December, 2014 established an individual SEP IRA retirement account plan for all employees. The 

Company has accrued a contribution for 2017 in the amount of $260 and an amount of $264 for 2016, which is included in 
accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2017 
and 2016, respectively. The Company has no control or administrative responsibility related to the individual accounts and is not 
obligated to fund in future years. 

16. Subsequent Events 

On March 1, 2018 the board of directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.46875 per share, or an annualized 
dividend of $1.875 per share, for the company’s 7.50% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock for the first quarter of 
2018. The dividend is payable on April 2, 2018, to stockholders of record on March 15, 2018. 

On March 5, 2018 we entered into an amendment with KeyBank to increase the existing line of credit to $45,000. All other 

terms remained unchanged.
