Summary Risk Factors
Set forth below is a summary of the risks described under Item 1A. Risk Factors in this Annual Report on Form 10-K:
Risks Related to Our Business and Operations
• Our portfolio of properties is concentrated in the industrial real estate sector and our business would be adversely affected by an economic downturn in that sector.
• Our portfolio of properties is dependent upon regional and local economic conditions and is geographically concentrated in Southern California infill markets, which causes us to be especially susceptible to adverse
developments in those markets.
•
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, restrictions intended to prevent its spread and local governments’ actions impacting our ability to collect rent could adversely impact our business, financial condition, results of operations,
cash flows, liquidity and ability to satisfy our debt service obligations.
• Our properties are concentrated in certain industries that make us susceptible to adverse events with respect to those industries.
• We may be unable to identify and complete acquisitions of properties that meet our criteria, which may impede our growth.
• Our future acquisitions may not yield the returns we expect.
• We may be unable to renew leases, lease vacant space or re-lease space as leases expire, or renewing existing leases may require significant concession, inducements and/or capital expenditures.
• We face significant competition in the leasing market, which may decrease or prevent increases of the occupancy and rental rates of our properties.
• A substantial majority of the leases at our properties are with tenants who have non-investment grade credit ratings, which may result in our leasing to tenants that are more likely to default in their obligations to us than a
tenant with an investment grade credit rating.
Risks Related To Our Capital Structure
• Our growth depends on external sources of capital that are outside of our control and may not be available to us on commercially reasonable terms or at all.
• Our debt level reduces cash available for distribution and may expose us to the risk of default under our debt obligations.
• Mortgage and other secured debt obligations expose us to the possibility of foreclosure, which could result in the loss of our investment in a property or group of properties subject to mortgage debt.
• Our unsecured credit facility, unsecured notes and certain of our other secured loans contain, and any other future indebtedness we incur may contain, various covenants, including business activity restrictions, and the failure to
comply with those covenants could materially adversely affect us.
Risks Related to the Real Estate Industry
• Our performance and value are subject to risks associated with real estate assets and the real estate industry.
Risks Related to Our Organizational Structure
•
•
Conflicts of interest may exist or could arise in the future between the interests of our stockholders and the interests of holders of common units, which may impede business decisions that could benefit our stockholders.
Certain provisions of Maryland law could inhibit changes in control, which may discourage third parties from conducting a tender offer or seeking other change of control transactions that could involve a premium price for our
common stock or that our stockholders otherwise believe to be in their best interest.
• We are a holding company with no direct operations and, as such, we will rely on funds received from our Operating Partnership to pay liabilities, and the interests of our stockholders will be structurally subordinated to all
liabilities and obligations of our Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries.
2
Risks Related to Our Status as a REIT
•
Failure to maintain our qualification as a REIT would have significant adverse consequences to us and the per share trading price of our common stock.

Item 1. Business
Company Overview
References to “we,” “our,” “us,” “our company,” or “the Company” refer to Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc., a Maryland corporation, together with our consolidated subsidiaries (unless the context requires otherwise), including
Rexford Industrial Realty, L.P., a Maryland limited partnership, of which we are the sole general partner and which we refer to in this report as our Operating Partnership. In statements regarding qualification as a REIT, such terms refer
solely to Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc.
We are a self-administered and self-managed full-service REIT focused on owning, operating and acquiring industrial properties in Southern California infill markets. Our goal is to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for
our stockholders by providing superior access to industrial property investments in Southern California infill markets.
We were formed as a Maryland corporation on January 18, 2013 and Rexford Industrial Realty, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), of which we are the sole general partner, was formed as a Maryland limited partnership on
January 18, 2013. Through our controlling interest in our Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries, we acquire, own, improve, redevelop, lease and manage industrial real estate primarily located in Southern California infill markets,
and from time to time, acquire or provide mortgage debt secured by industrial property. As of December 31, 2021, our consolidated portfolio consisted of 296 properties with approximately 36.9 million rentable square feet. In
addition, we currently manage an additional 20 properties with approximately 1.0 million rentable square feet.
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2013. We are generally not subject to federal taxes on our
income to the extent we distribute our REIT taxable income to our shareholders and maintain our qualification as a REIT.
Business Objectives and Growth Strategies
Our primary business objective is to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for our stockholders through dividends and capital appreciation. We believe that pursuing the following strategies will enable us to achieve this
objective:
Internal Growth through Intensive, Value-Add Asset Management.
We employ an intensive asset management strategy that is designed to increase cash flow and occupancy from our properties. Our strategy includes proactive renewal of existing tenants, re-tenanting to achieve higher rents, and
repositioning and redeveloping industrial property by renovating, modernizing or increasing functionality to increase cash flow and value. For example, we sometimes convert formerly single-tenant properties to multi-tenant occupancy
to capitalize upon the higher per square foot rents generated by smaller spaces in our target markets in addition to adding or improving loading access and increasing fire, life-safety and building operating systems, among other value-
add initiatives. We believe that by undertaking such conversions or other functional enhancements, we can position our properties to attract a larger universe of potential tenants, increase occupancy, tenant quality and rental rates. We
also believe that multi-tenant properties, as well as single mid-size buildings, help to limit our exposure to tenant default risk and to diversify our sources of cash flow. Additionally, our proactive approach to leasing and asset
management is driven by our in-house leasing department and team of portfolio and property managers who maintain direct, day-to-day relationships and dialogue with our tenants, which we believe enhances recurring cash flow and
reduces periods of vacancy.
External Growth through Acquisitions.
We continue to grow our portfolio through disciplined acquisitions in prime Southern California infill markets. We believe that our relationship-, data- and event-driven research allows us to identify and exploit asset mispricing
and market inefficiencies. We seek to acquire assets with value-add opportunities to increase their cash flow and asset values, often targeting off-market or lightly marketed transactions where our execution abilities and market
credibility encourage owners to sell assets to us at what we consider pricing that is more favorable than heavily marketed transactions. We also seek to source transactions from owners with generational ownership shift, fund
divestment, sale-leaseback/corporate surplus, maturing loans, some facing liquidity needs or financial stress, including loans that lack economical refinancing options. We also believe our deep market presence and relationships may
enable us to selectively acquire assets in marketed transactions that may be difficult to access for less focused buyers.
Competitive Strengths
We believe that our investment strategy and operating model distinguishes us from other owners, operators and acquirers of industrial real estate in several important ways, including the following:
4
Focus on Industrial Assets in Southern California’s Infill Market: We intend to continue our core strategy of owning and operating industrial properties within Southern California’s infill regions. Infill markets are
considered high-barrier to entry markets with scarcity of vacant or developable land and high concentrations of people, jobs, housing, income, wages and consumption. We believe Southern California’s infill industrial property market
is the largest, most fragmented industrial market in the nation, demonstrating favorable long-term tenant demand fundamentals in the face of an ongoing scarcity and diminishment of supply. We have a portfolio of 296 properties
totaling approximately 36.9 million square feet, which are all located in Southern California infill markets.
Diversified Tenant Mix: Our portfolio is leased to a broad tenant base, drawn from diverse industry sectors. We believe that this diversification reduces our exposure to tenant default risk and earnings volatility. As of
December 31, 2021, we had 1,592 leases, with no single tenant accounting for more than 2.7% of our total annualized base rent. Our portfolio is also geographically diversified within the Southern California market across the
following submarkets: Los Angeles 55.9%; San Bernardino 17.2%; Orange County 11.3%; San Diego 8.2%; and Ventura 7.4%.
Superior Access to Investment Opportunities: We believe that we enjoy superior access to value-add, off-market, lightly marketed and marketed acquisition opportunities, many of which are difficult for competing investors to
access. Off-market and lightly marketed transactions are characterized by a lack of a formal marketing process and a lack of widely disseminated marketing materials. Marketed transactions are often characterized by extensive buyer
competition, making such transactions difficult to close on for less-focused investors. As we are principally focused on the Southern California market, our executive management and acquisition teams have developed and maintain a
deep, broad network of relationships among key market participants, including property brokers, lenders, owners and tenants. We employ an extensive broker marketing, incentives and loyalty program. We also utilize data and event-
driven analytics and primary research to identify and pursue events and circumstances, including below-market leased properties, properties with curable functional obsolescence, generational ownership changes, and financial stress
related to properties, owners, lenders, and tenants, that tend to generate early access to emerging investment opportunities.
Vertically Integrated Platform: We are a full-service real estate operating company, with substantial in-house capabilities in all aspects of our business. Our platform includes experienced in-house teams focused on
acquisitions, analytics and underwriting, asset management, repositioning and redevelopment, property management, sales and leasing, design, construction management, as well as finance, accounting, legal and human relations
departments.
Value-Add Repositioning and Redevelopment Expertise: Our in-house redevelopment and construction management team employs an entrepreneurial approach to redevelopment and repositioning activities that are designed
to increase the functionality, cash flow and value of our properties. Repositioning activities include converting large underutilized spaces into a series of smaller and more functional spaces, creating generic industrial space that appeals
to a wide range of tenants, adding additional square footage and modernizing properties by, among other things, upgrading fire, life-safety and building operating systems, resolving functional obsolescence, adding or enhancing loading
areas and truck access and making other accretive modernization improvements. Redevelopment activities include fully or partially demolishing an existing building(s) due to building obsolescence and/or a property with excess or
vacant land and constructing a ground-up building.
Growth-Oriented, Flexible and Conservative Capital Structure: Our capital structure provides us with the resources, financial flexibility and the capacity to support the future growth of our business. Since our initial public
offering, we have raised capital through seven public offerings of our common stock (including two completed in 2021), three public offerings of preferred stock, through sales of common stock under our various at-the-market equity
offering programs and through two public offerings of senior notes (including one completed in 2021). On January 13, 2022, we established a new at-the-market equity offering program pursuant to which we may sell from time to time
up to an aggregate of $750.0 million of our common stock directly through sales agents or by entering into forward equity sale agreements with certain financial institutions acting as forward purchasers. As of the filing date of this
Annual Report on Form 10-K, we have not sold any shares of our common stock under this at-the-market equity offering program. In connection with the establishment of this new at-the-market offering program, we terminated our
previous $750 million at-the-market program under which we had offered and sold shares of common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of $743.9 million. We also have a $700 million unsecured revolving credit facility, and
as of the filing date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we had $175.0 million outstanding, leaving $525.0 million available for future borrowings. The credit facility has an accordion feature that permits us to request additional
lender commitments up to an additional $700 million, which may be comprised of additional revolving commitments, term loan commitments or any combination thereof, subject to certain conditions. As of December 31, 2021, our
ratio of net debt to total market capitalization was 9.1%.
5
Competition
In acquiring our target 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, some of
which have greater financial resources or other competitive advantages than we do. Such competition may result in an increase in the amount we must pay to acquire a property or may require us to forgo an investment in properties
which would otherwise meet our investment criteria. We also face significant competition in leasing available properties to prospective tenants and in re-leasing space to existing tenants. As a result, we may have to provide rent
concessions, incur expenses for tenant improvements or offer other inducements to enable us to timely lease vacant space, all of which may have an adverse impact on our results of operations.
Insurance
We carry commercial property, liability, environmental, earthquake and terrorism coverage on all the properties in our portfolio under blanket insurance policies. In addition, we hold other environmental policies for certain
properties with known environmental conditions that provide for additional coverage for potential environmental liabilities, subject to the policy’s coverage conditions and limitations. Generally, we do not carry insurance for certain
types of extraordinary losses, including, but not limited to, losses caused by floods (unless the property is located in a flood plain), riots, war and wildfires. Substantially all of our properties are located in areas that are subject to
earthquakes, and while we maintain earthquake insurance coverage, the events are subject to material deductibles and exclusions. Additionally, seismic risks are evaluated for properties during acquisition by a qualified structural
engineer and to the extent that the engineer identifies a property with weaknesses that contribute to a high statistical risk, the property will generally be structurally retrofitted to reduce the statistical risk to an acceptable level.
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 Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended (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 our 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 current ADA standards.
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 plus 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 make alterations to achieve compliance as deemed commercially reasonable.
Environmental Matters
The properties that we acquire are subject to various federal, state and local environmental laws. Under these laws, courts and government agencies have the authority to require us, to the extent we own 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. From time to time we are required to export soils (which may or may not contain hazardous materials) from our sites, and 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.
6
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 a property 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, which have the potential to be very significant. 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. To mitigate some of the environmental risk, our properties are covered by a blanket environmental insurance policy. In addition, we
hold other environmental policies for certain properties with known environmental conditions that provide for additional coverage for potential environmental liabilities. These policies, however, are subject to certain limits, deductibles
and exclusions, and insurance may not fully compensate us for any environmental liability. We obtain Phase I or similar environmental assessments by independent environmental consultants at the time of acquisition of a property.
Phase I environmental investigations are a common form of real estate due diligence that are governed by nationally recognized American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standards and typically conducted by licensed
environmental scientists. Phase I investigations commonly include a physical walk-through of the property in addition to a file review of the site. The file review includes creating a known operating history of the site. This includes, but
is not limited to, inquiries with local governmental agencies as well as reviewing historical aerial reviews. If the consultant identifies any unexplained Recognized Environmental Concerns (“REC”) then the consultant may recommend
further investigation, usually through specific invasive property tests. This additional round of investigation is commonly referred to as a “Phase II”. Invasive testing may or may not include air, soil, soil vapor or ground water sampling.
Additionally, it may or may not include an asbestos and/or lead-based paint survey. Depending on the results of the initial Phase II investigation, the consultant may recommend further Phase II investigations, or if satisfied with the
results, the consultant may decide the initial REC identified is no longer a concern. On occasion the seller of a property may not allow us to conduct a Phase II investigation, and we may elect to proceed with a property acquisition
without a Phase II based on our risk assessment and mitigating factors informed by our third-party environmental consultants and advisors. Although we obtain a Phase I, a Phase II as permitted by the property seller, or similar
environmental site assessments by independent environmental consultants on each property prior to acquiring it, these environmental assessments may not reveal all environmental risks that might have a materially adverse economic
effect on our business, assets and results of operations or liquidity, and may not identify all potential environmental liabilities, and our portfolio environmental and any site-specific insurance policies may be insufficient to cover any
such environmental costs and 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.
Human Capital
As of December 31, 2021, we had 186 employees located in five regional offices within our Southern California market to service our business and tenants, optimize the welfare and productivity of our staff, and minimize
commute times for our staff and to our properties. However, due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, nearly all employees worked remotely to minimize COVID-19 exposure risk and to provide flexible working conditions for our
employees while achieving our performance objectives. We believe that we have good relations with our employees. None of our employees are represented by a union. We have adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, and
Policies and Procedures for Complaints Regarding Accounting and Fraud, including a phone number and website for employees to voice anonymous concerns. All such concerns are then brought to the attention of our independent audit
committee of the board of directors and our general counsel. These policies apply to all of our employees, and receipt and review by each employee is documented and verified annually.
Employee Engagement and Support
We believe employee engagement and recognition of strong performance are key components of a strong corporate culture. As part of our ongoing efforts to encourage employee engagement, we conducted a Voice of
Employee survey and held teambuilding events in 2021, and employees received formal recognition awards during our all-company quarterly meetings after being nominated by their peers. Each employee undergoes performance
discussions at least once per year, with annual compensation adjustment consideration commensurate with the market and individual performance. Our voluntary turnover rate was 15% in 2021. Our referral rate for new hires is 24%,
which we believe is indicative of employee engagement and commitment. Additionally, all employees receive a weekly update via email from our executive management team.
We offer and encourage ongoing employee training and advancement opportunities, with a wide variety of thousands of courses and topics including management, leadership, personal development, diversity and inclusion,
sexual harassment
7
prevention, health and safety, and technical skills development. Many of our employees have contributed to the creation of learning content, leveraging our employee expertise and engagement and promoting a culture of learning. On
average, each employee completed over 24 hours of focused training in 2021. We have also established a tuition reimbursement program which will provide our team with additional opportunities to grow and succeed in their careers.
Additionally, we established a paid parental leave policy for birthing and non-birthing parents to support the bonding and wellness of our employees and their newborn children. Nearly 12% of our employees at the director level and
higher were developed and promoted from within the Company.
Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company had a detailed business continuity plan in place. When statewide work-from home orders were implemented, the Company’s detailed business continuity plan was activated. Our
employees were able to begin working remotely immediately, with home office equipment cost reimbursement, internet and online learning access for the entire workforce, and mental health assistance. Additionally, we made available
to all employees with children a childcare stipend of $1,000 for each employee, as well as a tutoring stipend of $1,500, to assist employees balancing remote working and schooling needs. Based on the success of our virtual working
environment during the earlier part of the COVID-19 pandemic, we implemented a work from home flexibility program in 2021.
Workforce Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

Item 1A. Risk Factors
Set forth below are some (but not all) of the factors that could adversely affect our performance and financial condition. Moreover, we operate in a highly competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risk factors
emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all such risk factors, nor can we predict the impact of all such risk factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual
results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results.
We believe the following risks are material to our stockholders. You should carefully consider the following factors in evaluating our company, our properties and our business. The occurrence of any of the following risks
could adversely affect our results of operations, cash flows and our ability to pay distributions on, and the per share trading price of, our common stock and might cause our stockholders to lose all or part of their investment. For
purposes of this section, the term “stockholders” means the holders of shares of our common stock and preferred stock.

Risks Related to Our Business and Operations
Our portfolio of properties is concentrated in the industrial real estate sector, and our business would be adversely affected by an economic downturn in that sector.
Our properties are concentrated in the industrial real estate sector. This concentration exposes us to the risk of economic downturns in this sector to a greater extent than if our business activities included a more significant
portion of other sectors of the real estate industry.
Our portfolio of properties is dependent upon regional and local economic conditions and is geographically concentrated in Southern California infill markets, which causes us to be especially susceptible to adverse developments
in those markets.
All of our properties are located in Southern California, which may expose us to greater or lesser economic risks than if we owned a more geographically diverse portfolio. We are particularly susceptible to adverse economic
or other conditions in Southern California, as well as to natural disasters that occur in this market. Most of our properties are located in areas known to be seismically active. While we diversify the geographic concentrations of assets
and carry insurance for losses resulting from earthquakes, the amount of our coverage may not be sufficient to fully cover losses from earthquakes and associated disasters, and the policies are subject to material deductibles and self-
insured retention. The Southern California market has experienced downturns in past years, and the current COVID-19 pandemic, and restrictions intended to prevent its spread, have had, and may continue to have, an adverse impact
on the economy of the Southern California market. Any future downturns in the Southern California economy could impact our tenants’ ability to continue to meet their rental obligations or otherwise adversely affect the size of our
tenant base, which could materially adversely affect our operations and our revenue and cash available for distribution, including cash available to pay distributions to our stockholders. We cannot assure you that the Southern California
market will grow or that underlying real estate fundamentals will be favorable to owners and operators of industrial properties. Our operations may also be affected if competing properties are built in the Southern California market. In
addition, the State of California is more highly regulated and taxed than many other states, all of which may reduce demand for industrial space in California and may make it costlier to operate our business. Additionally, conditions in
Southern California related to homelessness, crime, tax rates and heightened regulation could negatively impact economic conditions and make tenants less desirous to lease properties from us. Any adverse economic or real estate
developments in the Southern California market, or any decrease in demand for industrial space resulting from the regulatory environment, business climate or energy or fiscal problems, could adversely impact us and our stockholders.
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, restrictions intended to prevent its spread and local governments’ actions impacting our ability to collect rent could adversely impact our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash
flows, liquidity and ability to satisfy our debt service obligations.
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions intended to prevent its spread has already had a significant adverse impact on economic and market conditions around the world, including the United States and the infill
Southern California markets in which we own properties and have development projects, and could further trigger a period of sustained global and U.S. economic downturn or recession. In particular, in Southern California, the state of
California and certain municipalities, including where we own properties and/or have redevelopment projects, have periodically instituted quarantines, restrictions on travel, restrictions on businesses and construction projects that may
impact our performance. The industries in which our tenants are concentrated and other industries may be subject to these risks as well, which may negatively impact their performance and ability to pay rent. In addition, there can be no
assurance against future quarantines and restrictions, as a result of the spread of new variants of COVID-19 or otherwise, that could cause adverse impacts on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, liquidity
and ability to satisfy our debt service obligations. These trends may also influence occupancy levels and the immediate ability or willingness of certain of our tenants to pay rent in full on a timely basis.
In March 2020, in response to COVID-19, most municipalities in Southern California, including many municipalities in which we own properties, mandated a moratorium on all commercial evictions and gave tenants impacted
by COVID-19 the unilateral right to defer rent while the emergency orders are in effect, with repayment generally within six to twelve months after the end of the local emergency. During 2021, many municipalities allowed their local
orders to expire or modified the orders to exclude some tenants (based on the tenant’s number of employees, being a publicly traded company or multinational company, or other characteristics). Most recently in Los Angeles County,
where we operate a significant portion of our portfolio, the county’s eviction restrictions and rent deferment rights expired on January 31, 2022, leaving a small number of remaining municipalities, including the City of Los Angeles,
where the restrictions will expire when the local emergency is lifted.
During 2020, a limited number of our tenants took advantage of the relief provided by the local government mandates authorizing deferral of rent, irrespective of such tenants’ actual ability to pay such rent. As a result, during
2020, we provided rent relief to tenants in the form of deferred rent of approximately $4.6 million, which represented approximately 1.4% of our
9
total consolidated rental income for 2020. We did not enter into any rent relief agreements granting additional deferrals of base rent during 2021. As of December 31, 2021, we have collected approximately $4.3 million, or 98.0%, of
the deferred payments due as of December 31, 2021.
As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, additional tenants may cease to pay their rent obligations to us in full or at all, and tenants may elect not to renew their leases, seek to terminate their leases, seek relief from their leases
(including through negotiation, restructuring or bankruptcy), or decline to renew expiring leases or enter into new leases, all of which may adversely impact our rental revenue and occupancy rates, generate additional expenses, and
adversely impact our results of operations and financial condition. Likewise, changing global economic conditions as the pandemic continues to evolve may ultimately lead to a decrease in occupancy levels and rental rates across our
portfolio as tenants reduce or defer their spending, institute restructuring plans or file for bankruptcy.
Moreover, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, including the spread of new variants of the virus, and restrictions intended to prevent its spread could have significant adverse impacts on our business, financial condition, results
of operations, cash flows, liquidity and ability to satisfy our debt service obligations in a variety of ways that are difficult to predict. Such adverse impacts could depend on, among other factors:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
our tenants’ ability or willingness to pay rent in full on a timely basis;
state, local, federal and industry-initiated efforts that may adversely affect landlords, including us, and their ability to collect rent and/or enforce remedies for the failure to pay rent;
our need to restructure leases with our tenants and our ability to do so on favorable terms or at all;
our ability to renew leases or re-lease available space in our proprieties on favorable terms or at all;
a severe and prolonged disruption and instability in the global financial markets, or deteriorations in credit and financing conditions that may affect our or our tenants’ ability to access capital necessary to fund our respective
business operations or replace or renew maturing liabilities on a timely basis, on attractive terms or at all and may adversely affect the valuation of financial assets and liabilities, any of which could affect our and our tenants’
ability to meet liquidity and capital expenditure requirements;
complete or partial shutdowns of one or more of our tenants’ manufacturing facilities or distribution centers, temporary or long-term disruptions in our tenants’ supply chains from local, national and international suppliers or
delays in the delivery of products, services or other materials necessary for our tenants’ operations, which could force our tenants’ to reduce, delay or eliminate offerings of their products and services, reduce or eliminate their
revenues and liquidity and/or result in their bankruptcy or insolvency;
our ability to avoid delays or cost increases associated with building materials or construction services necessary for construction that could adversely impact our ability to continue or complete construction as planned, on
budget or at all;
our and our tenants’ ability to manage our respective businesses to the extent our and their management or personnel are impacted in significant numbers by the COVID-19 pandemic and are not willing, available or allowed to
conduct work; and
our and our tenants’ ability to ensure business continuity in the event our continuity of operations plan is not effective or improperly implemented or deployed during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The rapid development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact of COVID-19 (or another pandemic). Nevertheless, COVID-19 and the current financial, economic and capital
markets environment, and future developments in these and other areas present material risks and uncertainties with respect to our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, liquidity and ability to satisfy our debt
service obligations and could also have a material adverse effect on the value and trading price of our common stock. Moreover, to the extent any of these risks and uncertainties adversely impact us in the ways described above or
otherwise, they may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks set forth in this “Risk Factors” section.
Our properties are concentrated in certain industries that make us susceptible to adverse events with respect to those industries.
Our properties are concentrated in certain industries, which, as of December 31, 2021, included the following (and accounted for the percentage of our total annualized base rent indicated): Wholesale Trade (22.6%);
Transportation and Warehousing (21.9%); and Light Manufacturing (20.1%). Any downturn in one or more of these industries, or in any other industry in which we may have a significant concentration now or in the future, could
adversely affect our tenants who are involved in such industries. If any of these tenants is unable to withstand such downturn or is otherwise unable to compete effectively in its business, it may be forced to declare bankruptcy, fail to
meet its rental obligations, seek rental concessions or be unable to enter into new leases, which could materially and adversely affect us.
10
We may be unable to identify and complete acquisitions of properties that meet our criteria, which may impede our growth.
Our business strategy involves the acquisition of properties meeting certain investment criteria in our target markets. These activities require us to identify suitable acquisition candidates or investment opportunities that meet
our criteria and are compatible with our growth strategies. In addition, the current market for acquisitions of industrial properties in Southern California continues to be extremely competitive. This competition may increase the demand
for our target properties and, therefore, reduce the number of suitable acquisition opportunities available to us and increase the prices paid for such acquisition properties. We may be unable to acquire properties identified as potential
acquisition opportunities on favorable terms, or at all, which could slow our growth. We may acquire properties utilized for non-industrial uses, including office properties, where our long-term strategy is to develop, redevelop or
reposition the asset into industrial property. Prior to executing our strategy, we may lack non-industrial property management expertise necessary to optimally manage the non-industrial properties.
If we are unable to finance property acquisitions or acquire properties on favorable terms, or at all, our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and our ability to pay distributions on, and the per share trading price
of, our common stock could be adversely affected.
Our acquisition activities may pose risks that could harm our business.
As a result of our acquisitions, we may be required to incur debt and expenditures and issue additional common stock or common units to pay for the acquired properties. These acquisitions may dilute our stockholders’
ownership interest, delay or prevent our profitability and may also expose us to risks such as overpayment, reduction in value of acquired properties, and the possibility of pre-existing undisclosed liabilities, including environmental or
asbestos liability, for which our insurance may be insufficient or for which we may be unable to secure insurance coverage.
We cannot provide assurance that the price for any future acquisitions will be similar to prior acquisitions. If our revenue does not keep pace with these potential acquisition and expansion costs, we may incur net losses. There
is no assurance that we will successfully overcome these risks or other problems encountered with acquisitions.
We may be unable to source off-market or lightly marketed investment opportunities in the future.
As of December 31, 2021, approximately 75% of the acquisitions by property count completed by us since our initial public offering (“IPO”) were acquired in off-market or lightly marketed transactions, which are transactions
that are characterized by a lack of a formal marketing process and lack of widely disseminated marketing materials. Properties that are acquired by off-market or lightly marketed transactions are typically more attractive to us as a
purchaser and are a core part of our strategic plan, because the absence of a formal or extended marketing/bidding period typically results in more favorable pricing, more favorable non-economic terms and often an ability to close
transactions more rapidly. If we cannot obtain off-market or lightly marketed deal flow in the future, our ability to locate and acquire additional properties in the manner in which we have historically may be adversely affected and may
cause us to revisit our core strategies.
Our future acquisitions may not yield the returns we expect.
Our future acquisitions and our ability to successfully operate the properties we acquire in such acquisitions may be exposed to the following significant risks:
•
even if we are able to acquire a desired property, competition from other potential acquirers may significantly increase the purchase price;
• we may acquire properties that are not accretive to our results upon acquisition, and we may not successfully manage and lease those properties to meet our expectations;
• we may spend more than budgeted amounts to make necessary improvements or renovations to acquired properties;
• we may be unable to quickly and efficiently integrate new acquisitions, particularly acquisitions of portfolios of properties, into our existing operations;
• market conditions may result in higher than expected vacancy rates and lower than expected rental rates; and
• we may acquire properties subject to liabilities and without any recourse, or with only limited recourse, with respect to unknown or greater than expected liabilities such as liabilities for clean-up of environmental
contamination, claims by tenants, vendors or other persons dealing with the former owners of the properties, liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business and claims for indemnification by general partners,
directors, officers and others indemnified by the former owners of the properties.
11
We may not be able to control our operating costs or our expenses may remain constant or increase, even if our revenues do not increase, causing our results of operations to be adversely affected.
Factors that may adversely affect our ability to control operating costs include the need to pay for insurance and other operating costs (including real estate taxes, which could increase over time), the need to periodically repair,
renovate and re-lease space, the cost of compliance with governmental regulation, including zoning and tax laws, the potential for liability under applicable laws, interest rate levels and the availability of financing. If our operating costs
increase or our property income decreases as a result of any of the foregoing factors, our results of operations may be adversely affected.
A prolonged period of high and persistent inflation could have a negative impact on our operating performance.
A prolonged period of high and persistent inflation could cause an increase in our operating expenses, capital expenditures and cost of our variable-rate borrowing which could have a material impact on our financial position or
results of operations. 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 to real estate taxes, utility expenses and other operating expenses may be partially offset by the contractual rent increases and tenant payment of taxes and expenses described above.
An increase in interest rates would increase our interest costs on variable rate debt and new debt and could adversely affect our ability to refinance existing debt, conduct repositioning, redevelopment and acquisition
activity and recycle capital.
As of December 31, 2021, we had a $700 million unsecured revolving credit facility and a $150 million term loan facility bearing interest at a variable rates on any amount drawn and outstanding. There was no amount
outstanding on the revolving credit facility and our term loan facility was fully drawn at December 31, 2021. However, we may borrow on the revolving credit facility or incur additional variable rate debt in the future. Interest rates are
highly sensitive to many factors that are beyond our control, including general economic conditions and policies of various governmental and regulatory agencies and, in particular, the Federal Reserve Board. If the Federal Reserve
Board increases the federal funds rate, overall interest rates will likely rise. Interest rate increases would increase our interest costs for any variable rate debt and for new debt, which could in turn make the financing of any
repositioning, redevelopment and acquisition activity costlier. Rising interest rates could also limit our ability to refinance existing debt when it matures or cause us to pay higher interest rates upon refinancing and increase interest
expense on refinanced indebtedness. In addition, an increase in interest rates could decrease the amount third parties are willing to pay for our assets, thereby limiting our ability to recycle capital and our portfolio promptly in response
to changes in economic or other conditions.
The potential impacts of future climate change and governmental initiatives remain uncertain at this time but could result in increased operating costs.
Our assets and tenants may be exposed to potential risks from possible future climate change that could result in physical and regulatory impacts, flooding, and catastrophic weather events and fires, increasing our operating costs and
impairing our tenants’ ability to lease property and pay rent. Laws and regulations targeting climate change could result in stricter energy efficiency standards and increased capital expenditures in order to comply with such regulations,
as well as increased operating costs that we may not be able to effectively pass on to our tenants. Any such regulation could impose substantial costs on our tenants, thereby impacting the financial condition of our tenants and their
ability to meet their lease obligations and to lease or re-lease our properties.
Adverse U.S. and global market, economic and political conditions and other events or circumstances beyond our control could have a material adverse effect on us.
Another economic or financial crisis or rapid decline of the consumer economy, significant concerns over energy costs, geopolitical issues, the availability and cost of credit, the U.S. mortgage market, or a declining real estate
market in the U.S. can contribute to increased volatility, diminished expectations for the economy and the markets, and high levels of structural unemployment by historical standards.
Global market, political and economic challenges, including dislocations and volatility in the credit markets and general global economic uncertainty, may adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash
flows and our ability to pay distributions on, and the per share trading price of, our common stock.
In addition, global market, political and economic conditions could adversely affect the businesses of many of our tenants. As a result, we may see increases in bankruptcies of our tenants and increased defaults by tenants, and
we may experience higher vacancy rates and delays in re-leasing vacant space, which could negatively impact our business and results of operations.
12
We may be unable to renew leases, lease vacant space or re-lease space as leases expire, or renewing existing leases may require significant concession, inducements and/or capital expenditures.
As of December 31, 2021, 3.7% of the rentable square footage of our portfolio was vacant or under repositioning/redevelopment and leases representing 0.6% of the rentable square footage of our portfolio expired on
December 31, 2021. In addition, leases representing 13.1% and 13.8% of the rentable square footage of the properties in our portfolio will expire in 2022 and 2023, respectively. We cannot assure you that our leases will be renewed or
that our properties will be re-leased at rental rates equal to or above the current average rental rates or that we will not offer substantial rent abatements, tenant improvements, early termination rights or below-market renewal options to
attract new tenants or retain existing tenants. If the rental rates for our properties decrease, or if our existing tenants do not renew their leases or we do not re-lease a significant portion of our available space and space for which leases
will expire, our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and our ability to pay distributions on, and the per share trading price of, our common stock could be adversely affected. In order to attract and retain tenants, we may
be required to make rent or other concessions to tenants, accommodate requests for renovations, build-to-suit remodeling and other improvements or provide additional services to our tenants. Additionally, we may need to raise capital
to make such expenditures. If we are unable to do so or if capital is otherwise unavailable, we may be unable to make the required expenditures. This could result in non-renewals by tenants upon expiration of their leases and/or an
inability to attract new tenants.
We face significant competition in the leasing market, which may decrease or prevent increases of the occupancy and rental rates of our properties.
We compete with numerous developers, owners and operators of real estate, many of which own properties similar to ours in the same submarkets in which our properties are located. If our competitors offer space at rental
rates below current market rates, or below the rental rates we currently charge our tenants, we may lose existing or potential tenants and we may be pressured to reduce our rental rates below those we currently charge or to offer more
substantial tenant concessions or tenant rights (including rent abatements, tenant improvements, early termination rights or below-market renewal options) in order to retain tenants or attract new tenants. Furthermore, as a result of
various factors, including competitive pricing pressure in our submarkets, adverse conditions in the Southern California real estate market, a general economic downturn and a decline in the desirability of our properties compared to
other properties in our submarkets, we may be unable to realize the budgeted rents for properties in our portfolio. If we are unable to obtain rental rates comparable to our asking rents for properties in our portfolio, our ability to
generate cash flow growth will be negatively impacted. Significant rent reductions could result in a write-down of one or more of our consolidated properties and/or adversely affect the market price of our common stock, our financial
condition and our results of operations, including our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to pay dividends to our stockholders.
A substantial majority of the leases at our properties are with tenants who have non-investment grade credit ratings, which may result in our leasing to tenants that are more likely to default in their obligations to us than a tenant
with an investment grade credit rating.
A substantial majority of the leases at our properties are with tenants who have non-investment grade credit ratings. The ability of a non-investment grade tenant to meet its obligations to us cannot be considered as well assured
as that of an investment grade tenant. All of our tenants may face exposure to adverse business or economic conditions which could lead to an inability to meet their obligations to us. However, non-investment grade tenants may not
have the financial capacity or liquidity to adapt to these conditions or may have less diversified businesses, which may exacerbate the effects of adverse conditions on their businesses. Moreover, the fact that a substantial majority of our
tenants are not investment grade may cause investors or lenders to view our cash flows as less stable, which may increase our cost of capital, limit our financing options or adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.
Historically, some of our tenants have filed for bankruptcy protection or become insolvent. This may occur with tenants in the future, and we are particularly at risk because of the credit rating of much of our tenant base. The
bankruptcy or insolvency of a major tenant also may adversely affect the income produced by our properties.
We may acquire properties or portfolios of properties through tax-deferred contribution transactions, which could result in stockholder dilution and limit our ability to sell such assets.
We may continue to acquire properties or portfolios of properties through tax-deferred contribution transactions in exchange for partnership interests in our Operating Partnership, which may result in stockholder dilution. This
acquisition structure may have the effect of, among other things, reducing the amount of tax depreciation we are able to deduct over the tax life of the acquired properties, and may require that we agree to protect the contributors’ ability
to defer recognition of taxable gain through restrictions on our ability to dispose of the acquired properties and/or the allocation of partnership debt to the
13
contributors to maintain their tax bases. These restrictions limit our ability to sell an asset at a time, or on terms, that would be favorable absent such restrictions.
Our real estate development, redevelopment and repositioning activities are subject to risks.
We may engage in development, redevelopment and repositioning activities with respect to certain of our properties. To the extent that we do so, we will be subject to the following risks associated with such development,
redevelopment and repositioning activities:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
construction, redevelopment and repositioning may be unsuccessful and/or costs of a project may exceed original estimates, possibly making the project less profitable than originally estimated, or unprofitable;
time required to complete the construction, redevelopment or repositioning of a project or to lease up the completed project may be greater than originally anticipated, thereby adversely affecting our cash flow and
liquidity;
non-industrial properties targeted for development, redevelopment or repositioning may be more difficult to manage compared to our industrial properties where we have the most property management expertise;
contractor and subcontractor disputes, strikes, labor disputes or supply disruptions, which may cause delays or increase costs;
failure to achieve expected occupancy and/or rent levels within the projected time frame, if at all;
delays with respect to obtaining, or the inability to obtain, necessary zoning, occupancy, land use and other governmental permits, and changes in zoning and land use laws;
occupancy rates and rents of a completed project may not be sufficient to make the project profitable;
our ability to dispose of properties developed, redeveloped or repositioned with the intent to sell could be impacted by the ability of prospective buyers to obtain financing given the current state of the credit markets; and
the availability and pricing of financing to fund our development activities on favorable terms or at all.
Potential losses, including from adverse weather conditions and natural disasters, such as earthquakes, may not be covered by insurance, and we may be unable to rebuild our existing properties in the event of a substantial or
comprehensive loss of such properties.
We carry commercial property, liability, environmental, earthquake and terrorism coverage on all the properties in our consolidated portfolio under a blanket insurance policy, in addition to other coverages that we believe are
appropriate for certain of our properties given the relative risk of loss, the cost of the coverage and industry practice. Some of our policies are insured subject to limitations involving significant deductibles or co-payments and policy
limits that may not be sufficient to cover losses. In particular, all of the properties in our portfolio are located in Southern California, an area that is particularly prone to seismic activity. A severe earthquake in the Southern California
region could result in uninsured damage to a subset or even a substantial portion of our portfolio and could significantly impact our cash flow. While we carry insurance for losses resulting from earthquakes, such policies are subject to
material deductibles. Additionally, natural disasters, including earthquakes, may cause future earthquake insurance costs to increase significantly, which may impact the operating costs and net cash flow of our properties.
In addition, we may discontinue terrorism or other insurance or increase deductibles on some or all of our properties in the future if the cost of premiums for any such policies exceeds, in our judgment, the value of the coverage
discounted for the risk of loss. Currently, we do not carry insurance for certain types of extraordinary losses, such as loss from riots, war and wildfires, because we believe such coverage is only available at a disproportionately high
cost. As a result, we may incur significant costs in the event of loss from wildfires, riots, war and other uninsured losses. If we do obtain insurance for any of those risks in the future, such insurance cost may impact the operating costs
and net cash flow of our properties.
If we or one or more of our tenants experiences a loss that is uninsured or that exceeds policy limits, we could lose the capital invested in the damaged properties as well as the anticipated future cash flows from those
properties. In addition, if the damaged properties are subject to recourse indebtedness, we would continue to be liable for the indebtedness, even if these properties were irreparably damaged. Furthermore, we may not be able to obtain
adequate insurance coverage at reasonable costs in the future as the costs associated with property and casualty renewals may be higher than anticipated. In the event that we experience a substantial or comprehensive loss of one of our
properties, we may not be able to rebuild such property to its existing specifications. Further, reconstruction or improvement of such a property would likely require significant upgrades to meet zoning and building code requirements.
Environmental, insurance and legal restrictions could also restrict the rebuilding of our properties.
14
Joint venture investments could be adversely affected by our lack of sole decision-making authority, our reliance on co-venturers’ financial condition and disputes between us and our co-venturers.
We have co-invested in the past, and may co-invest again in the future, with third parties through partnerships, joint ventures or other entities, acquiring non-controlling interests in or sharing responsibility for managing the
affairs of a property, partnership, joint venture or other entity. In such event, we would not be in a position to exercise sole decision-making authority regarding the property, partnership, joint venture or other entity, involving risks not
present were a third party not involved, including the possibility that partners or co-venturers might become bankrupt or fail to fund their share of required capital contributions, disputes and litigation. Partners or co-venturers may have
economic or other business interests or goals which are inconsistent with our business interests or goals, and may be in a position to take actions contrary to our policies or objectives, and they may have competing interests in our
markets that could create conflict of interest issues. Such investments may also have the potential risk of impasses on decisions, such as a sale, because neither we nor the partner or co-venturer would have full control over the
partnership or joint venture. In addition, prior consent of our joint venture partners may be required for a sale or transfer to a third party of our interests in the joint venture, which would restrict our ability to dispose of our interest in the
joint venture. In addition, we may in certain circumstances be liable for the actions of our third-party partners or co-venturers. Our joint ventures may be subject to debt and, in volatile credit markets, the refinancing of such debt may
require equity capital calls.
We face risks associated with security breaches through cyber-attacks, cyber intrusions or otherwise, as well as other significant disruptions of our information technology (“IT”) networks and related systems.
We face risks associated with security breaches, whether through cyber-attacks or cyber intrusions over the Internet, malware, computer viruses, attachments to e‑mails, persons inside our organization or persons with access to
systems inside our organization, and other significant disruptions of our IT networks and related systems. The risk of a security breach or disruption, particularly through cyber-attack or cyber intrusion, including by computer hackers,
foreign governments and cyber terrorists, has generally increased as the number, intensity and sophistication of attempted attacks and intrusions from around the world have increased. Our IT networks and related systems are essential
to the operation of our business and our ability to perform day‑to‑day operations and, in some cases, may be critical to the operations of certain of our tenants. A security breach or other significant disruption involving our IT networks
and related systems could:
• Disrupt the proper functioning of our networks and systems;
•
•
•
•
•
Result in misstated financial reports, violations of loan covenants and/or missed reporting deadlines;
Result in our inability to properly monitor our compliance with the rules and regulations regarding our qualification as a REIT;
Result in the unauthorized access to, and destruction, loss, theft, misappropriation or release of proprietary, confidential, sensitive or otherwise valuable information of ours or others, which others could use to compete
against us or for disruptive, destructive or otherwise harmful purposes and outcomes;
Require significant management attention and resources to remedy any damages that result;
Subject us to claims for breach of contract or failure to safeguard personal information, damages, credits, penalties or termination of leases or other agreements;
• Damage our reputation among our tenants, prospective sellers, brokers and investors generally; and
•
Subject us to legal liability, including liability under the California Consumer Privacy Protection Act of 2018.
To help us better identify, manage, and mitigate these IT risks, we have adopted and implemented the National Institutes of Standards and Technology (NIST) cybersecurity framework. Additionally, our IT department requires
each employee upon hire and at least annually thereafter to successfully complete an all-encompassing online security awareness training course. Further, all employees are required to complete bi-monthly micro training modules. Our
IT department conducts periodic simulated social engineering exercises including, but not limited to, phishing (e-mail), vishing (voice), smishing (SMS), USB testing, and physical assessments. These tests are conducted at random
throughout the year with no set schedule or frequency. Additionally, we may conduct targeted exercises against specific departments or individuals based on a risk determination. From time to time our employees may be required to
complete remedial training courses or may be required to participate in remedial training exercises with our IT department as part of a risk-based assessment.
To further address IT security, the current chairperson of the Company’s nominating and corporate governance committee of the board of directors, an independent director with information security experience, provides board
level oversight of information security and receives quarterly information security reports, while the full board of directors typically receives information security updates annually from senior leadership. Over the prior three years the
Company has not been subject to any information security breaches, has not incurred any financial harm from information security breaches, nor has the Company been subject to any material information security breaches or expenses
to our knowledge since our initial formation.
15
Lastly, on a quarterly basis we conduct third-party internal and external vulnerability assessments from our cybersecurity firm leveraging the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS), and on an ongoing basis we
conduct annual penetration testing with our third-party information security company. We currently maintain insurance policies to insure against breaches of network security, privacy liability, media liability, data incident response
expenses, cyber related business interruption, and cyber extortion, although there is no guaranty that the insurance limits and coverage will be sufficient to cover any loss.
Although we make efforts to maintain the security and integrity of these types of IT networks and related systems, and we have implemented various measures to manage the risk of a security breach or disruption, including the
engagement of independent third party consultants to analyze any vulnerabilities, implementation of software and systems intended to reduce the risk of IT security breaches, and ongoing cyber security education and training for
employees throughout the year, there can be no assurance that our security efforts and measures will be effective or that attempted security breaches or disruptions would not be successful or damaging. Even the most well protected
information, networks, systems and facilities remain potentially vulnerable because the techniques used in such attempted security breaches evolve and generally are not recognized until launched against a target, and in some cases, are
designed to not be detected and, in fact, may not be detected. Accordingly, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate security barriers or other preventative measures, and thus it is impossible for us to
entirely mitigate this risk.
Risks Related To Our Capital Structure
Our growth depends on external sources of capital that are outside of our control and may not be available to us on commercially reasonable terms or at all.
In order to qualify and maintain our qualification as a REIT, we are required under the Code, among other things, to distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the dividends paid
deduction and excluding any net capital gain. In addition, we will be subject to federal corporate income tax to the extent that we distribute less than 100% of our REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the dividends paid
deduction, including any net capital gains. Because of these distribution requirements, we are highly dependent on third-party sources to fund capital needs, including any necessary acquisition financing. We may not be able to obtain
such financing on favorable terms or at all and any additional debt we incur will increase our leverage and likelihood of default. Our access to third-party sources of capital depends, in part, on:
•
•
•
•
•
•
general market conditions;
the market’s perception of our growth potential;
our current debt levels;
our current and expected future earnings;
our cash flow and cash distributions; and
the trading price of our common stock.
In prior years, the capital markets have been subject to periodic disruptions. Our inability to obtain capital when needed could have a material adverse effect on our ability to expand our business, implement our growth plan
and fund other cash requirements. If we cannot obtain capital from third-party sources on favorable terms or at all when desired, we may not be able to acquire or develop properties when strategic opportunities exist, meet the capital
and operating needs of our existing properties, satisfy our debt service obligations or make the cash distributions to our stockholders necessary to maintain our qualification as a REIT. To the extent that capital is not available to acquire
properties, profits may not be realized or their realization may be delayed, which could result in an earnings stream that is less predictable than some of our competitors and result in us not meeting our projected earnings and
distributable cash flow levels in a particular reporting period. Failure to meet our projected earnings and distributable cash flow levels in a particular reporting period could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and on the
market price of our stock.
Some of our financing arrangements involve balloon payment obligations, which may adversely affect our financial condition and our ability to make distributions.
Some of our financing arrangements require us to make a lump-sum or “balloon” payment at maturity. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital
Resources.” Our ability to satisfy a balloon payment at maturity is uncertain and may depend upon our ability to obtain additional financing or our ability to sell the property. At the time the balloon payment is due, we may or may not
be able to refinance the existing financing on terms as favorable as the original loan or sell the property at a price sufficient to satisfy the balloon payment. Such a refinancing or sale could affect the rate of return to stockholders and the
projected time of disposition of our assets.
Our debt level reduces cash available for distribution and may expose us to the risk of default under our debt obligations.
16
Payments of principal and interest on borrowings may leave us with insufficient cash resources to operate our properties or to pay the dividends necessary to maintain our REIT qualification. Our level of debt and the
limitations imposed on us by our debt agreements could have significant adverse consequences, including the following:
•
our cash flow may be insufficient to meet our required principal and interest payments;
• we may be unable to borrow additional funds as needed or on favorable terms;
• we may be unable to refinance our indebtedness at maturity or the refinancing terms may be less favorable than the terms of our original indebtedness;
• we may be forced to dispose of one or more of our properties, possibly on unfavorable terms or in violation of certain covenants to which we may be subject;
• we may violate restrictive covenants in our loan documents, which would entitle the lenders to accelerate our debt obligations and, in some cases commence foreclosure proceedings on one or more of our properties; and
•
our default under any loan with cross default provisions could result in a default on other indebtedness.
Any loan defaults or property foreclosures may impact our ability to access capital in the future on favorable terms or at all, as well as our relationships with and/or perception among lenders, investors, tenants, brokers,
analysts, vendors, employees and other parties. Furthermore, foreclosures could create taxable income without accompanying cash proceeds, which could hinder our ability to meet the REIT distribution requirements imposed by the
Code. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Factors That May Influence Future Results of Operations.”
Mortgage and other secured debt obligations expose us to the possibility of foreclosure, which could result in the loss of our investment in a property or group of properties subject to mortgage debt.
Incurring mortgage and other secured debt obligations increases our risk of property losses because defaults on indebtedness secured by properties may result in foreclosure actions initiated by lenders, and ultimately our loss of
the property securing any loans for which we are in default. Any foreclosure on a mortgaged property or group of properties could adversely affect the overall value of our portfolio of properties. For tax purposes, a foreclosure on any
of our properties that is subject to a nonrecourse mortgage loan would be treated as a sale of the property for a purchase price equal to the outstanding balance of the debt secured by the mortgage. If the outstanding balance of the debt
secured by the mortgage exceeds our tax basis in the property, we would recognize taxable income on foreclosure, but would not receive any cash proceeds, which could hinder our ability to meet the REIT distribution requirements
imposed by the Code.
Failure to hedge effectively against interest rate changes may adversely affect us.
Subject to the rules related to maintaining our qualification as a REIT, we may enter into hedging transactions to protect us from the effects of interest rate fluctuations on floating rate debt. As of December 31, 2021, we have
one interest rate swap in place for the purpose of mitigating our exposure to fluctuations in short-term interest rates. For additional details related to our interest rate swap activity, see Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements
included in Item 15 of this Report on Form 10-K.
Our future hedging transactions may include entering into additional interest rate cap agreements or interest rate swap agreements. These agreements involve risks, such as the risk that such arrangements would not be effective
in reducing our exposure to interest rate changes or that a court or regulatory agency could find that such an agreement is not legally enforceable or fails to satisfy other legal requirements. In addition, interest rate hedging can be
expensive, particularly during periods of rising and volatile interest rates. Hedging could reduce the overall returns on our investments. In addition, while such agreements would be intended to lessen the impact of rising interest rates on
us, they could also expose us to the risk that the other parties to the agreements would not perform, we could incur significant costs associated with the settlement of the agreements or that the underlying transactions could fail to qualify
as highly effective cash flow hedges under Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging. Further, our derivatives counterparties may be subject to
new capital, margin and business conduct requirements imposed as a result of the legislation, which may increase our transaction costs or make it more difficult for us to enter into additional hedging transactions on favorable terms. Our
inability to enter into future hedging transactions on favorable terms, or at all, could increase our operating expenses and put us at increased exposure to interest rate risks.
Our unsecured credit facility, unsecured notes and certain of our other secured loans contain, and any other future indebtedness we incur may contain, various covenants, including business activity restrictions, and the failure to
comply with those covenants could materially adversely affect us.
Our unsecured credit facility, unsecured notes and certain of our other secured loans contain, and any other future indebtedness we incur may contain, certain covenants, which, among other things, restrict our activities,
including, as applicable,
17
our ability to sell the underlying property without the consent of the holder of such indebtedness, to repay or defease such indebtedness, to incur additional indebtedness, to make certain investments or capital expenditures or to engage
in mergers or consolidations that result in a change in control of our company. We are also subject to financial and operating covenants including, as applicable, requirements to maintain certain financial coverage ratios and restrictions
on our ability to make distributions to stockholders. Failure to comply with any of these covenants would likely result in a default under the applicable indebtedness that would permit the acceleration of amounts due thereunder and
under other indebtedness and foreclosure of properties, if any, serving as collateral therefor.
The business activity limitations contained in the various covenants will restrict our ability to engage in some business activities that may otherwise be in our best interests. In addition, our unsecured credit facility, unsecured
notes and secured term loan contain specific cross-default provisions with respect to specified other indebtedness, giving the lenders the right to declare a default if we are in default under other loans in some circumstances.
The planned discontinuation of LIBOR, and the replacement of LIBOR with an alternative reference rate, may adversely affect interest expense related to outstanding debt and derivatives instruments.
On March 5, 2021, the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) announced that USD LIBOR will no longer be published after June 30, 2023. This announcement has several implications, including setting the spread that may be
used to automatically convert contracts from LIBOR to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). Additionally, banking regulators have encouraged banks to discontinue new LIBOR debt issuances after December 31, 2021.
We anticipate that the most commonly used tenors of LIBOR will continue to be available at least until June 30, 2023. Any changes adopted by the FCA or other governing bodies in the method used for determining LIBOR
may result in a sudden or prolonged increase or decrease in reported LIBOR. If that were to occur, our interest payments could change. In addition, uncertainty about the extent and manner of future changes may result in interest rates
and/or payments that are higher or lower than if LIBOR were to remain available in its current form.
We have contracts that are indexed to LIBOR (including our unsecured revolving credit facility, $150 million term loan and one interest rate swap), and are monitoring and evaluating the related risks, which include interest on
loans and amounts paid on derivative instruments. These risks arise in connection with transitioning contracts to an alternative rate, including any resulting value transfer that may occur, and are likely to vary by contract. The value of
loans or derivative instruments tied to LIBOR, as well as interest rates on our current or future indebtedness, may also be impacted if LIBOR is limited or discontinued. For some instruments the method of transitioning to an alternative
reference rate may be challenging, especially if we cannot agree with the respective lender or counterparty about how to make the transition.
While we expect LIBOR to be available in substantially its current form until at least the end of June 30, 2023, it is possible that LIBOR will become unavailable prior to that point. This could result, for example, if sufficient
banks decline to make submissions to the LIBOR administrator. In that case, the risks associated with the transition to an alternative reference rate will be accelerated and magnified.
Alternative rates and other market changes related to the replacement of LIBOR, including the introduction of financial products and changes in market practices, may lead to risk modeling and valuation challenges, such as
adjusting interest rate accrual calculations and building a term structure for an alternative rate.
The introduction of an alternative rate also may create additional basis risk and increased volatility as alternative rates are phased in and utilized in parallel with LIBOR.
We may allocate the net proceeds from the offering of our $400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 2.150% Senior Notes due 2031 in ways investors may not agree and in ways that may not earn a profit.
We intend to allocate the net proceeds from the offering of $400.0 million of 2.150% Senior Notes due 2031 to one or more Eligible Green Projects (as defined below), which may include the repositioning or redevelopment of
such projects. Pending the allocation of an amount equal to the net proceeds from the offering to Eligible Green Projects, the net proceeds were initially used to repay our $225.0 million unsecured term loan facility due 2023, to fund the
redemption of all shares of our Series A Preferred Stock, and acquisition activities.
There can be no assurance that the Eligible Green Projects to which we may allocate any net proceeds from the $400.0 million of 2.150% Senior Notes due 2031 will meet investor criteria and expectations regarding
environmental impact and sustainability performance. In particular, no assurance is given that any such Eligible Green Projects will satisfy, whether in whole or in part, any present or future investor expectations or requirements in
regards to any investment criteria or guidelines with which such investor or its investments are required to comply, whether by any present or future applicable law or regulations or by their own bylaws or other governing rules or
investment portfolio mandates (in particular with regard to any direct or
18
indirect environmental, sustainability or social impact of the Eligible Green Projects). Adverse environmental or social impacts may occur during the design, construction and operation of the projects or the projects may become
controversial or criticized by activist groups or other stakeholders.
“Eligible Green Projects” are defined as:
• Green Buildings. Expenditures related to real estate projects that have received or are expected to receive third-party sustainable certifications or verification, such as Energy Star 75+, LEED Certified or higher, Net Zero
certifications, or equivalent certification. Expenditures may include design, development, construction, materials, equipment and certification costs.
•
•
Energy Efficiency. Expenditures related to design, construction, operation and maintenance of energy efficiency of buildings, building subsystems or land, which improve energy efficiency by at least 30%, including efficient
LED lighting, HVAC, cool roofing, water conservation systems and energy management systems.
Renewable Energy. Expenditures related to investments in renewable energy, including on-site or off-site renewable energy investments such as wind, solar and battery storage systems.
Risks Related to the Real Estate Industry
Our performance and value are subject to risks associated with real estate assets and the real estate industry.
Our ability to pay expected dividends to our stockholders depends on our ability to generate revenues in excess of expenses, scheduled principal payments on debt and capital expenditure requirements. Events and conditions
generally applicable to owners and operators of real property that are beyond our control may decrease cash available for distribution and the value of our properties. These events include many of the risks set forth above under “—
Risks Related to Our Business and Operations,” as well as the following:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
local oversupply in connection with increased vacancies or reduction in demand for industrial space;
adverse changes in financial conditions of buyers, sellers and tenants of properties;
vacancies or our inability to rent space on favorable terms, including possible market pressures to offer tenants rent abatements, tenant improvements, early termination rights or below-market renewal options, and the need
to periodically repair, renovate and re-lease space;
increased operating costs, including insurance premiums, utilities, real estate taxes and state and local taxes;
civil unrest, acts of war, terrorist attacks and natural disasters, including earthquakes, floods and wildfires, which may result in uninsured or underinsured losses;
decreases in the market value of our properties;
changing submarket demographics; and
changing traffic patterns.
In addition, periods of economic downturn or recession, rising interest rates or declining demand for real estate, or the public perception that any of these events may occur, could result in a general decline in rents or an
increased incidence of defaults under existing leases.
Illiquidity of real estate investments could significantly impede our ability to sell a property if and when we decide to do so or to respond to adverse changes in the performance of our properties and harm our financial condition.
The real estate investments made, and to be made, by us are relatively difficult to sell quickly. As a result, our ability to promptly sell one or more properties in our portfolio in response to changing economic, financial and
investment conditions is limited. Our ability to dispose of properties on advantageous terms depends on factors beyond our control, including competition from other sellers and the availability of attractive financing for potential buyers
of our properties. Due to the uncertainty of market conditions which may affect the future disposition of our properties, we cannot assure you that we will be able to sell any properties identified for sale at favorable pricing and may not
receive net income from the transaction.
Return of capital and realization of gains, if any, from an investment generally will occur upon disposition or refinancing of the underlying property. We may be unable to realize our investment objectives by sale, other
disposition or refinancing at attractive prices within any given period of time or may otherwise be unable to complete any exit strategy. In particular, our ability to dispose of one or more properties within a specific time period is subject
to certain limitations imposed by our Tax Matters Agreements (as defined below), as well as weakness in or even the lack of an established market for a property, changes in the financial condition or prospects of prospective purchasers,
changes in national or international economic conditions, and changes in laws, regulations or fiscal policies of jurisdictions in which the property is located.
19
In addition, the Code imposes restrictions on a REIT’s ability to dispose of properties that are not applicable to other types of real estate companies. In particular, the tax laws applicable to REITs effectively require that we hold
our properties for investment, rather than primarily for sale in the ordinary course of business (by imposing a 100% prohibited transaction tax on REITs on profits derived from sales of properties held primarily for sale in the ordinary
course of business), which may cause us to forgo or defer sales of properties that otherwise would be in our best interest. Therefore, we may not be able to vary our portfolio in response to economic or other conditions promptly or on
favorable terms.
Declining real estate valuations and impairment charges could materially adversely affect us.
We review the carrying value of our properties when circumstances, such as adverse market conditions, indicate a potential impairment may exist. We base our review on an estimate of the future cash flows (excluding interest
charges) expected to result from the property’s use and eventual disposition on an undiscounted basis. We consider factors such as future operating income, trends and prospects, as well as the effects of leasing demand, competition and
other factors. If our evaluation indicates that we may be unable to recover the carrying value of a real estate investment, an impairment loss will be recorded to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the
property.
Impairment losses have a direct impact on our operating results, because recording an impairment loss results in a negative adjustment to our publicly reported operating results. The evaluation of anticipated cash flows is
highly subjective and is based in part on assumptions regarding future occupancy, rental rates and capital requirements that could differ materially from actual results in future periods. A worsening real estate market may cause us to
reevaluate the assumptions used in our impairment analysis.
Acquired properties may be located in new markets where we may face risks associated with investing in an unfamiliar market.
We have acquired properties in markets that are new to us. For example, our predecessor business acquired properties in Arizona and Illinois as part of an acquisition of a portfolio of properties that included properties located
in our target markets. When we acquire properties located in new markets, we may face risks associated with a lack of market knowledge or understanding of the local economy, forging new business relationships in the area and
unfamiliarity with local government and permitting procedures. In the past when we have acquired properties outside of our focus market, we have subsequently divested those properties, and at this time we expect to continue this
practice.
We may choose not to distribute the proceeds of any sales of real estate to our stockholders, which may reduce the amount of our cash distributions to stockholders.
We may choose not to distribute any proceeds from the sale of real estate investments to our stockholders. Instead, we may elect to use such proceeds to:
•
•
•
acquire additional real estate investments;
repay debt;
create working capital reserves; or
• make repairs, maintenance, tenant improvements or other capital improvements or expenditures on our other properties.
Any decision to retain or invest the proceeds of any sales, rather than distribute such proceeds to our stockholders, may reduce the amount of cash distributions to equity holders.
If any of our insurance carriers becomes insolvent, we could be adversely affected.
We carry several different lines of insurance, placed with several large insurance carriers that we believe have good ratings at the time our policies are put into effect. If any one of these large insurance carriers were to become
insolvent, we would be forced to replace the existing insurance coverage with another suitable carrier, and any outstanding claims would be at significant risk for collection. In such an event, we cannot be certain that we would be able
to replace the coverage at similar or otherwise favorable terms. Replacing insurance coverage at unfavorable rates and the potential of uncollectible claims due to carrier insolvency would likely adversely affect us.
Our property taxes could increase due to property tax rate changes or reassessment, which could adversely impact our cash flows.
Even if we qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we will be required to pay some state and local taxes on our properties. The real property taxes on our properties may increase as property tax rates change or as
our properties are
20
assessed or reassessed by taxing authorities. All our properties located in California may be reassessed as a result of various factors including, without limitation, changes in California laws that contain certain limitations on annual
increases of assessed value of real property. In recent years, there have been calls for a so called “split roll” under which commercial and industrial property owners would no longer receive the benefits of California Proposition 13 caps
to property tax increases. During the November 2020 election, there was a California ballot initiative to create such as “split roll” and remove the property tax increase caps for commercial and industrial real estate. This ballot initiative
failed by a margin of less than four percent, and similar proposals have been filed but have not yet qualified for the November 2022 ballot. There is a risk future ballot initiatives will succeed. If the property taxes we pay increase, our
cash flow would be adversely impacted to the extent that we are not reimbursed by tenants for those taxes.
We face certain risks in connection with Section 1031 Exchanges.
We often dispose of properties in transactions that are intended to qualify for federal income tax deferral as a “like-kind exchange” under Section 1031 of the Code (a “1031 Exchange”). It is possible that a transaction intended
to qualify as a 1031 Exchange could later be determined to have been taxable or that we may be unable to identify and complete the acquisition of a suitable replacement property to complete a 1031 Exchange. If this occurs, we could
face adverse tax consequences. Additionally, it is possible that legislation could be enacted that could modify or repeal the laws with respect to 1031 Exchanges, which could impact our ability to dispose of properties on a tax deferred
basis.
We could incur significant costs related to government regulation and litigation over environmental matters.
Under various federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the environment, as a current or former owner or operator of real property, we may be liable for costs and damages resulting from the presence or discharge
of hazardous or toxic substances, waste or petroleum products at, on, in, under or migrating to or from such property, including costs to investigate, clean up such contamination and liability for harm to natural resources. Such laws
often impose liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such contamination, and the liability may be joint and several. These liabilities could be substantial and the cost of
any required remediation, removal, fines or other costs could exceed the value of the property and in some cases our aggregate net asset value. In addition, the presence of contamination or the failure to remediate contamination at our
properties may expose us to third-party liability for costs of remediation and/or personal, property, or natural resources damage or materially adversely affect our ability to sell, lease or develop our properties or to borrow using the
properties as collateral. In addition, environmental laws may create liens on contaminated sites in favor of the government for damages and costs it incurs to address such contamination. Moreover, if contamination is discovered on our
properties, environmental laws may impose restrictions on the manner in which property may be used or businesses may be operated, and these restrictions may require substantial expenditures.
We obtain Phase I, or Phase II as appropriate and permitted by the seller, or similar environmental site assessments conducted by independent environmental consultants on most of our properties at the time of their acquisition
or in connection with subsequent financings, however, these assessments are limited in scope and are not updated in the ordinary course of business absent a specific need and therefore, may not reveal all environmental conditions
affecting a property. This may expose us to liability related to unknown or unanticipated environmental matters. Unless required by applicable laws or regulations, we may not further investigate, remedy or ameliorate the liabilities
disclosed in the existing Phase I’s or similar environmental site assessments, and this failure may expose us to liability in the future. While we maintain portfolio environmental and some site-specific insurance policies, they may be
insufficient to cover any such environmental costs and liabilities.
Some of our properties have been or may be impacted by contamination arising from current or prior uses of the property, or adjacent properties, for commercial or industrial purposes. Such contamination may arise from spills
of petroleum or hazardous substances or releases from tanks used to store such material known or suspected to exist at a number of our properties which may result in further investigation, remediation, or deed restrictions. Further,
certain of our properties are adjacent to or near other properties that have contained or currently contain petroleum or other hazardous substances, or at which others have engaged or may engage in activities that may release such
hazardous substances. Adjacent property uses are identified in standard ASTM procedures in Phase I environmental studies, and if warranted based on adjacent property concerns a Phase II environmental study may be obtained. In
addition to a blanket environmental insurance policy, as needed, we may obtain environmental insurance policies on commercially reasonable terms that provide coverage for potential environmental liabilities, subject to the policy’s
coverage conditions and limitations. However, these policies are subject to certain limits, deductibles and exclusions, and insurance may not fully compensate us for any environmental liability. From time to time, we may acquire
properties with known adverse environmental conditions where we believe that the environmental liabilities associated with these conditions are quantifiable and that the acquisition will yield a superior risk-adjusted return. We usually
perform a Phase I environmental site assessment at any property we are considering acquiring. Phase I environmental site assessments are limited in scope and do not involve sampling of soil, soil vapor, or groundwater, and these
assessments may not include or identify all
21
potential environmental liabilities or risks associated with the property. Even where subsurface investigation is performed, it can be very difficult to ascertain the full extent of environmental contamination or the costs that are likely to
flow from such contamination. We cannot assure you that the Phase I environmental site assessment or other environmental studies identified all potential environmental liabilities, or that we will not face significant remediation costs or
other environmental contamination that makes it difficult to sell any affected properties. Also, we have not always implemented actions recommended by these assessments, and recommended investigation and remediation of known or
suspected contamination has not always been performed. Contamination may exist at many of our properties, and governmental regulators or third parties could seek to force us to contribute to investigation or remediation or known or
suspected contamination. As a result, we could potentially incur material liability for these issues.
Environmental laws also govern the presence, maintenance and removal of asbestos-containing building materials, or ACBM, and may impose fines and penalties for failure to comply with these requirements. Such laws
require that owners or operators of buildings containing ACBM (and employers in such buildings) properly manage and maintain the asbestos, adequately notify or train those who may come into contact with asbestos, and undertake
special precautions, including removal or other abatement, if asbestos would be disturbed during renovation or demolition of a building. In addition, the presence of ACBM in our properties may expose us to third-party liability (e.g.,
liability for personal injury associated with exposure to asbestos).
In addition, the properties in our portfolio also are subject to various federal, state and local environmental, health and safety requirements, such as state and local fire requirements. Moreover, some of our tenants routinely
handle and use hazardous or regulated substances and wastes as part of their operations at our properties, which are subject to regulation. Such environmental, health and safety laws and regulations could subject us or our tenants to
liability resulting from these activities. Environmental liabilities could affect a tenant’s ability to make rental payments to us. In addition, changes in laws could increase the potential liability for noncompliance. This may result in
significant unanticipated expenditures or may otherwise materially and adversely affect our operations, or those of our tenants, which could in turn have an adverse effect on us. Further, these environmental, health and safety laws could
become more stringent in the future, and this could subject us or our tenants to new or greater liability.
We cannot assure you that remedial measures and other costs or liabilities incurred as a result of environmental issues will be immaterial to our overall financial position. If we do incur material environmental liabilities in the
future, we may face significant remediation costs, and we may find it difficult to sell any affected properties.
Our properties may contain or develop harmful mold or suffer from other air quality issues, which could lead to liability for adverse health effects and costs of remediation.
When excessive moisture accumulates in buildings or on building materials, mold growth may occur, particularly if the moisture problem remains undiscovered or is not addressed over a period of time. Some molds may
produce airborne toxins or irritants. Indoor air quality issues can also stem from inadequate ventilation, chemical contamination from indoor or outdoor sources, and other biological contaminants such as pollen, viruses and bacteria.
Indoor exposure to airborne toxins or irritants above certain levels can be alleged to cause a variety of adverse health effects and symptoms, including allergic or other reactions. As a result, the presence of significant mold or other
airborne contaminants at any of our properties could require us to undertake a costly remediation program to contain or remove the mold or other airborne contaminants from the affected property or increase indoor ventilation. In
addition, the presence of significant mold or other airborne contaminants could expose us to liability from our tenants, employees of our tenants or others if property damage or personal injury is alleged to have occurred.
We may incur significant costs complying with various federal, state and local laws, regulations and covenants that are applicable to our properties.
Our properties are subject to various covenants and federal, state and local laws and regulatory requirements, including permitting and licensing requirements. Local regulations, including municipal or local ordinances and
zoning restrictions, may restrict our use of our properties and may require us to obtain approval from local officials of community standards organizations at any time with respect to our properties, including prior to acquiring a property
or when undertaking renovations to any of our existing properties. Among other things, these restrictions may relate to fire and safety, seismic or hazardous material abatement requirements. There can be no assurance that existing laws
and regulatory policies will not adversely affect us or the timing or cost of any future acquisitions or renovations, or that additional regulations will not be adopted that increase such delays or result in additional costs. Our growth
strategy may be affected by our ability to obtain permits, licenses and zoning relief.
In addition, federal and state laws and regulations, including laws such as the Americans with Disabilities Act and parallel California Statutes, or ADA, and the Fair Housing Amendment Act of 1988, or FHAA, impose further
restrictions on our properties and operations. Under the ADA and the FHAA, all public accommodations must meet federal requirements related to
22
access and use by disabled persons. Some of our properties may currently be in non-compliance with the ADA or the FHAA. If one or more of the properties in our portfolio is not in compliance with the ADA, the FHAA or any other
regulatory requirements, we may be required to incur additional costs to bring the property into compliance, including the removal of access barriers, and we might incur governmental fines or the award of damages to private litigants.
In addition, we do not know whether existing requirements will change or whether future requirements will require us to make significant unanticipated expenditures.
Furthermore, while leases with our tenants generally include provisions to obligate the tenants to comply with all laws and operate within a defined use, there is no guaranty that the tenants will comply with the terms of their
leases. We may incur costs to bring a property into legal compliance even though the tenant may have been contractually required to comply and pay for the cost of compliance. Our tenants may disregard the use restrictions contained
in the leases and conduct operations not contemplated by the lease, such as prohibited uses related to cannabis or highly hazardous uses, for example, despite our efforts to prohibit certain uses.
Under California energy efficiency standards, enacted and periodically amended, including, without limitation, Title 24 or The Energy Efficiency Standards for Residential and Nonresidential Buildings, building owners may
incur increased costs to renovate properties in order to meet changing energy efficiency standards and make energy usage disclosures. If we are required to make unanticipated expenditures or substantial modifications to our properties,
our financial condition, cash flows, results of operations, the market price of our shares of common stock and preferred stock and our ability to make distributions to our stockholders could be adversely affected. We may incur
additional costs collecting and reporting energy usage data from our tenants and properties in order to comply with such energy efficiency standards.
Risks Related to Our Organizational Structure
Conflicts of interest may exist or could arise in the future between the interests of our stockholders and the interests of holders of common units, which may impede business decisions that could benefit our stockholders.
Conflicts of interest may exist or could arise in the future as a result of the relationships between us and our affiliates, on the one hand, and our Operating Partnership or any partner thereof, on the other. Our directors and
officers have duties to our company under Maryland law in connection with their management of our company. At the same time, we, as the general partner of our Operating Partnership, have fiduciary duties and obligations to our
Operating Partnership and its limited partners under Maryland law and the partnership agreement of our Operating Partnership in connection with the management of our Operating Partnership. Our fiduciary duties and obligations as
the general partner of our Operating Partnership may come into conflict with the duties of our directors and officers to our company.
Under Maryland law, a general partner of a Maryland limited partnership has fiduciary duties of loyalty and care to the partnership and its partners and must discharge its duties and exercise its rights as general partner under
the partnership agreement or Maryland law consistent with the obligation of good faith and fair dealing. The partnership agreement provides that, in the event of a conflict between the interests of our Operating Partnership or any
partner, on the one hand, and the separate interests of our company or our stockholders, on the other hand, we, in our capacity as the general partner of our Operating Partnership, may give priority to the separate interests of our
company or our stockholders (including with respect to tax consequences to limited partners, assignees or our stockholders), and, in the event of such a conflict, any action or failure to act on our part or on the part of our directors that
gives priority to the separate interests of our company or our stockholders that does not result in a violation of the contract rights of the limited partners of our Operating Partnership under its partnership agreement does not violate the
duty of loyalty or any other duty that we, in our capacity as the general partner of our Operating Partnership, owe to our Operating Partnership and its partners or violate the obligation of good faith and fair dealing.
Additionally, the partnership agreement provides that we generally will not be liable to our Operating Partnership or any partner for any action or omission taken in our capacity as general partner, for the debts or liabilities of
our Operating Partnership or for the obligations of the Operating Partnership under the partnership agreement, except for liability for our fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence, pursuant to any express indemnity we may give to
our Operating Partnership or in connection with a redemption. Our Operating Partnership must indemnify us, our directors and officers, officers of our Operating Partnership and our designees from and against any and all claims that
relate to the operations of our Operating Partnership, unless (1) an act or omission of the person was material to the matter giving rise to the action and either was committed in bad faith or was the result of active and deliberate
dishonesty, (2) the person actually received an improper personal benefit in violation or breach of the partnership agreement or (3) in the case of a criminal proceeding, the indemnified person had reasonable cause to believe that the act
or omission was unlawful. Our Operating Partnership must also pay or reimburse the reasonable expenses of any such person in advance of a final disposition of the proceeding upon its receipt of a written affirmation of the person’s
good faith belief that the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification has been met and a written undertaking to repay any amounts paid or advanced if it is ultimately determined that the person did not meet the standard of
conduct for indemnification. Our Operating Partnership is not required to indemnify or advance funds to any person with respect to any action initiated by the person seeking indemnification without our approval (except for any
proceeding brought to enforce such person’s right to indemnification under
23
the partnership agreement) or if the person is found to be liable to our Operating Partnership on any portion of any claim in the action. No reported decision of a Maryland appellate court has interpreted provisions similar to the
provisions of the partnership agreement of our Operating Partnership that modify and reduce our fiduciary duties or obligations as the general partner or reduce or eliminate our liability to our Operating Partnership and its partners, and
we have not obtained an opinion of counsel as to the enforceability of the provisions set forth in the partnership agreement that purport to modify or reduce the fiduciary duties and obligations that would be in effect were it not for the
partnership agreement.
Some of our directors and executive officers have outside business interests, including interests in real estate-related businesses, and, therefore, may have conflicts of interest with us.
Certain of our executive officers and directors have outside business interests, including interests in real estate-related businesses, and may own equity securities of public and private real estate companies. Our executive
officers’ and directors’ interests in these entities could create a conflict of interest, especially when making determinations regarding our renewal of leases with tenants subject to these leases. Our executive officers’ involvement in other
businesses and real estate-related activities could divert their attention from our day-to-day operations, and state law may limit our ability to enforce any non-compete agreements.
We could increase the number of authorized shares of stock, classify and reclassify unissued stock and issue stock without stockholder approval.
Our board of directors, without stockholder approval, has the power under our charter to amend our charter to increase the aggregate number of shares of stock or the number of shares of stock of any class or series that we are
authorized to issue, to authorize us to issue authorized but unissued shares of our common stock or preferred stock and to classify or reclassify any unissued shares of our common stock or preferred stock into one or more classes or
series of stock and set the terms of such newly classified or reclassified shares. As a result, we may issue classes or series of common stock or preferred stock with preferences, powers and rights, voting or otherwise, that are senior to,
or otherwise conflict with, the rights of holders of our common stock. Although our board of directors has no such intention at the present time, it could establish a class or series of preferred stock that could, depending on the terms of
such series, delay, defer or prevent a transaction or a change of control that might involve a premium price for our common stock or that our stockholders otherwise believe to be in their best interest.
Certain provisions of Maryland law could inhibit changes in control, which may discourage third parties from conducting a tender offer or seeking other change of control transactions that could involve a premium price for our
common stock or that our stockholders otherwise believe to be in their best interest.
Certain provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law (“MGCL”), may have the effect of inhibiting a third party from making a proposal to acquire us or of impeding a change of control under circumstances that
otherwise could provide the holders of shares of our common stock with the opportunity to realize a premium over the then-prevailing market price of such shares, including:
•
•
“Business combination” provisions that, subject to certain exceptions, prohibit certain business combinations between us and an “interested stockholder” (defined generally as any person who beneficially owns 10% or
more of the voting power of our shares or an affiliate or associate of ours who was the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of 10% or more of the voting power of our then outstanding voting stock at any time within the
two-year period immediately prior to the date in question) or an affiliate thereof for five years after the most recent date on which the stockholder becomes an interested stockholder, and thereafter impose fair price or
supermajority stockholder voting requirements on these combinations; and
“Control share” provisions that provide that holders of “control shares” of our company (defined as shares that, when aggregated with other shares controlled by the stockholder, entitle the stockholder to exercise voting
power in the election of directors within one of three increasing ranges) acquired in a “control share acquisition” (defined as the direct or indirect acquisition of ownership or control of the voting power of issued and
outstanding “control shares,” subject to certain exceptions) have no voting rights with respect to their control shares, except to the extent approved by our stockholders by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of all the
votes entitled to be cast on the matter, excluding all interested shares.
As permitted by the MGCL, our bylaws provide that we will not be subject to the control share provisions of the MGCL and our board of directors has, by resolution, exempted us from the business combination between us and
any other person. However, we cannot assure you that our board of directors will not revise the bylaws or such resolution in order to be subject to such business combination and control share provisions in the future. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, an alteration or repeal of the
24
board resolution exempting such business combinations will not have any effect on any business combinations that have been consummated or upon any agreements existing at the time of such modification or repeal.
Certain provisions of the MGCL permit the board of directors of a Maryland corporation with at least three independent directors and a class of stock registered under the Exchange Act without stockholder approval and
regardless of what is currently provided in its charter or bylaws, to implement certain corporate governance provisions, some of which (for example, a classified board) are not currently applicable to us. These provisions may have the
effect of limiting or precluding a third party from making an unsolicited acquisition proposal for our company or of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control under circumstances that otherwise could provide the holders of
shares of our stock with the opportunity to realize a premium over the then current market price. Our charter contains a provision whereby it elects to be subject to the provisions of Title 3, Subtitle 8 of the MGCL relating to the filling
of vacancies on the board of directors.
Certain provisions in the partnership agreement of our Operating Partnership may delay or prevent unsolicited acquisition of us.
Provisions of the partnership agreement of our Operating Partnership may delay or make more difficult unsolicited acquisitions of us or changes of our control. These provisions could discourage third parties from making
proposals involving an unsolicited acquisition of us or change of our control, although some stockholders or limited partners might consider such proposals, if made, desirable. These provisions include, among others:
•
•
•
•
•
redemption rights of qualifying parties;
a requirement that we may not be removed as the general partner of our Operating Partnership without our consent;
transfer restrictions on common units;
our ability, as general partner, in some cases, to amend the partnership agreement and to cause our Operating Partnership to issue additional partnership interests with terms that could delay, defer or prevent a merger or
other change of control of us or our Operating Partnership without the consent of our stockholders or the limited partners; and
the right of the limited partners to consent to certain transfers of our general partnership interest (whether by sale, disposition, statutory merger or consolidation, liquidation or otherwise).
Our charter and bylaws, the partnership agreement of our Operating Partnership and Maryland law also contain other provisions that may delay, defer or prevent a transaction or a change of control that might involve a
premium price for our common stock or that our stockholders otherwise believe to be in their best interest.
Tax Matters Agreements limit our ability to sell or otherwise dispose of certain properties, even though a sale or disposition may otherwise be in our stockholders’ best interest.
In connection with certain tax-deferred property contribution transactions in exchange for partnership interests in our Operating Partnership and also in connection with our formation transactions, we entered into tax matters
agreements (the “Tax Matters Agreements”) with certain limited partners of our Operating Partnership, including Messrs. Ziman, Schwimmer and Frankel in connection with the IPO, that provide that if we dispose of any interest with
respect to certain properties in our portfolio in a taxable transaction during a certain period after the applicable transaction, our Operating Partnership will indemnify such limited partners for their tax liabilities attributable to their share
of the built-in gain that exists with respect to such property interest as of the time of the applicable transaction and tax liabilities incurred as a result of the indemnification payment. These Tax Matters Agreements generally provide that,
subject to certain exceptions and limitations, the indemnification rights under the agreement will terminate for any such protected partner that sells, exchanges or otherwise disposes of more than 50% of his or her common units or other
applicable units. We have no present intention to sell or otherwise dispose of these properties or interest therein in taxable transactions during the restriction period. If we were to trigger the tax protection provisions under any such
agreement, our Operating Partnership would be required to pay damages in the amount of the taxes owed by these limited partners (plus, in some cases, additional damages in the amount of the taxes incurred as a result of such
payment). As a result, although it may otherwise be in our stockholders’ best interest that we sell one of these properties, it may be economically prohibitive for us to do so because of these obligations.
Tax Matters Agreements may require our Operating Partnership to maintain certain debt levels that otherwise would not be required to operate our business.
Certain Tax Matters Agreements provide that, during a certain period after the applicable transaction (in the case of the IPO, the period beginning from the date of the completion of our IPO (July 24, 2013) through the period
ending on the twelfth anniversary of our IPO (July 24, 2025)), our Operating Partnership will offer certain limited partners the opportunity to guarantee its debt, and following such period, our Operating Partnership will use
commercially reasonable efforts to provide such limited
25
partners who continue to own at least 50% of the common units or other applicable units they originally received in the applicable transactions with debt guarantee opportunities. Our Operating Partnership will be required to indemnify
such limited partners for their tax liabilities resulting from our failure to make such opportunities available to them (plus, in some cases, an additional amount equal to the taxes incurred as a result of such indemnity payment). Among
other things, this opportunity to guarantee debt is intended to allow the participating limited partners to defer the recognition of gain in connection with the applicable transactions. These obligations may require us to maintain more or
different indebtedness than we would otherwise require for our business.
Our board of directors may change our investment and financing policies without stockholder approval and we may become more highly leveraged, which may increase our risk of default under our debt obligations.
Our investment and financing policies are exclusively determined by our board of directors. Accordingly, our stockholders do not control these policies. Further, our charter and bylaws do not limit the amount or percentage of
indebtedness, funded or otherwise, that we may incur. Our board of directors may alter or eliminate our current policy on borrowing at any time without stockholder approval. If this policy changed, we could become more highly
leveraged which could result in an increase in our debt service. Higher leverage also increases the risk of default on our obligations. In addition, a change in our investment policies, including the manner in which we allocate our
resources across our portfolio or the types of assets in which we seek to invest, may increase our exposure to interest rate risk, real estate market fluctuations and liquidity risk.
Our rights and the rights of our stockholders to take action against our directors and officers are limited.
As permitted by Maryland law, our charter eliminates the liability of our directors and officers to us and our stockholders for money damages, except for liability resulting from:
•
•
actual receipt of an improper benefit or profit in money, property or services; or
active and deliberate dishonesty by the director or officer that was established by a final judgment and was material to the cause of action adjudicated.
In addition, our charter authorizes us to obligate our company, and our bylaws require us, to indemnify our directors and officers for actions taken by them in those and certain other capacities to the maximum extent permitted
by Maryland law in effect from time to time. Generally, Maryland law permits a Maryland corporation to indemnify its present and former directors and officers except in instances where the person seeking indemnification acted in bad
faith or with active and deliberate dishonesty, actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property or services or, in the case of a criminal proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his or her actions were unlawful.
Under Maryland law, a Maryland corporation also may not indemnify a director or officer in a suit by or on behalf of the corporation in which the director or officer was adjudged liable to the corporation or for a judgment of liability on
the basis that a personal benefit was improperly received. A court may order indemnification if it determines that the director or officer is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification, even though the director or officer did not meet
the prescribed standard of conduct; however, indemnification for an adverse judgment in a suit by us or on our behalf, or for a judgment of liability on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received, is limited to expenses. As a
result, we and our stockholders may have more limited rights against our directors and officers than might otherwise exist. Accordingly, in the event that actions taken in good faith by any of our directors or officers impede the
performance of our company, our stockholders’ ability to recover damages from such director or officer will be limited.
We are a holding company with no direct operations and, as such, we will rely on funds received from our Operating Partnership to pay liabilities, and the interests of our stockholders will be structurally subordinated to all
liabilities and obligations of our Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries.
We are a holding company and conduct substantially all of our operations through our Operating Partnership. We do not have, apart from an interest in our Operating Partnership, any independent operations. As a result, we
rely on distributions from our Operating Partnership to continue to pay any dividends we might declare on shares of our common stock. We also rely on distributions from our Operating Partnership to meet any of our obligations,
including any tax liability on taxable income allocated to us from our Operating Partnership. In addition, because we are a holding company, stockholder claims will be structurally subordinated to all existing and future liabilities and
obligations (whether or not for borrowed money) of our Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries. Therefore, in the event of our bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization, our assets and those of our Operating Partnership and its
subsidiaries will be available to satisfy the claims of our stockholders only after all of our and our Operating Partnership’s and its subsidiaries’ liabilities and obligations have been paid in full.
26
Our Operating Partnership may issue additional common units to third parties without the consent of our stockholders, which would reduce our ownership percentage in our Operating Partnership and would have a dilutive
effect on the amount of distributions made to us by our Operating Partnership and, therefore, the amount of distributions we can make to our stockholders.
As of December 31, 2021, we own 96.2% of the outstanding common units in our Operating Partnership and we may, in connection with future acquisitions of properties or otherwise, cause our Operating Partnership to issue
additional common units to third parties. In addition, in connection with our issuances of preferred stock, our Operating Partnership has issued to us preferred units and may issue additional preferred units to us in the future.
Furthermore, the Operating Partnership has issued and in the future may issue additional common units and/or preferred units to third parties in connection with acquisitions or otherwise. Existing preferred units have and any future
preferred units may have preferences, powers and rights, voting or otherwise, that are senior to, or otherwise conflict with the common units and are structurally senior to our common stock. Such issuances would reduce our ownership
percentage in our Operating Partnership and affect the amount of distributions made to us by our Operating Partnership and, therefore, the amount of distributions we can make to our stockholders.
Risks Related to Our Status as a REIT
Failure to maintain our qualification as a REIT would have significant adverse consequences to us and the per share trading price of our common stock.
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT for federal income tax purposes commencing with our initial taxable year ended December 31, 2013. We intend to continue to meet the requirements for taxation as a REIT. We have not
requested and do not plan to request a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) that we qualify as a REIT, and the statements in this Form 10-K are not binding on the IRS or any court. Therefore, we cannot guarantee that we
will qualify as a REIT, or that we will remain qualified as such in the future. If we were to fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will face serious tax consequences that would substantially reduce the funds available for
distribution to you for each of the years involved because:
• we would not be allowed a deduction for distributions to stockholders in computing our taxable income and would be subject to regular federal corporate income tax;
• we also could be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax for tax years prior to 2018 and possibly increased state and local taxes; and
•
unless we are entitled to relief under applicable statutory provisions, we could not elect to be taxed as a REIT for four taxable years following the year during which we were disqualified.
Any such corporate tax liability could be substantial and would reduce our cash available for, among other things, our operations and distributions to stockholders. In addition, if we fail to qualify as a REIT, we will not be
required to make distributions to our stockholders. As a result of all these factors, our failure to qualify as a REIT also could impair our ability to expand our business and raise capital and could materially and adversely affect the value
of our common stock.
Qualification as a REIT involves the application of highly technical and complex Code provisions for which there are only limited judicial and administrative interpretations. The complexity of these provisions and of the
applicable Treasury regulations that have been promulgated under the Code, or the Treasury Regulations, is greater in the case of a REIT that, like us, holds its assets through a partnership. The determination of various factual matters
and circumstances not entirely within our control may affect our ability to qualify as a REIT. In order to qualify as a REIT, we must satisfy a number of requirements, including requirements regarding the ownership of our stock,
requirements regarding the composition of our assets and requirements regarding the sources of our gross income. Also, we must make distributions to stockholders aggregating annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income,
determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding net capital gains. In addition, legislation, new regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions may materially adversely affect our investors, our
ability to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes or the desirability of an investment in a REIT relative to other investments.
Even if we qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we may be subject to some federal, state and local income, property and excise taxes on our income or property and, in certain cases, a 100% penalty tax, in the
event we sell property as a dealer. In addition, our taxable REIT subsidiary will be subject to tax as a regular corporation in the jurisdictions it operates.
If our Operating Partnership failed to qualify as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, we would cease to qualify as a REIT and suffer other adverse consequences.
We believe that our Operating Partnership will be treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. As a partnership, our Operating Partnership will not be subject to federal income tax on its income. Instead, each of its
partners, including us, will be allocated, and may be required to pay tax with respect to, its share of our Operating Partnership’s income.
27
We cannot assure you, however, that the IRS will not challenge the status of our Operating Partnership or any other subsidiary partnership in which we own an interest as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, or that a court
would not sustain such a challenge. If the IRS were successful in treating our Operating Partnership or any such other subsidiary partnership as an entity taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes, we would fail to meet
the gross income tests and certain of the asset tests applicable to REITs and, accordingly, we would likely cease to qualify as a REIT. Also, the failure of our Operating Partnership or any subsidiary partnerships to qualify as a
partnership could cause it to become subject to federal and state corporate income tax, which would reduce significantly the amount of cash available for debt service and for distribution to its partners, including us.
Our taxable REIT subsidiaries will be subject to federal income tax, and we will be required to pay a 100% penalty tax on certain income or deductions if our transactions with our taxable REIT subsidiaries are not conducted on
arm’s length terms.
We own an interest in one or more taxable REIT subsidiaries, and may acquire securities in additional taxable REIT subsidiaries in the future. A taxable REIT subsidiary is a corporation other than a REIT in which a REIT
directly or indirectly holds stock, and that has made a joint election with such REIT to be treated as a taxable REIT subsidiary. If a taxable REIT subsidiary owns more than 35% of the total voting power or value of the outstanding
securities of another corporation, such other corporation will also be treated as a taxable REIT subsidiary. Other than some activities relating to lodging and health care facilities, a taxable REIT subsidiary may generally engage in any
business, including the provision of customary or non-customary services to tenants of its parent REIT. A taxable REIT subsidiary is subject to federal income tax as a regular C corporation. In addition, a 100% excise tax will be
imposed on certain transactions between a taxable REIT subsidiary and its parent REIT that are not conducted on an arm’s length basis.
Not more than 20% of the value of our total assets may be represented by securities of taxable REIT subsidiaries. We anticipate that the aggregate value of the stock and other securities of any taxable REIT subsidiaries that we own
will be less than 20% of the value of our total assets, and we will monitor the value of these investments to ensure compliance with applicable asset test limitations.
To maintain our REIT qualification, we may be forced to borrow funds during unfavorable market conditions.
To qualify as a REIT, we generally must distribute to our stockholders at least 90% of our REIT taxable income each year, determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding net capital gains, and we will
be subject to regular corporate income taxes to the extent that we distribute less than 100% of our REIT taxable income (determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid) each year. In addition, we will be subject to a 4%
nondeductible excise tax on the amount, if any, by which distributions paid by us in any calendar year are less than the sum of 85% of our ordinary income, 95% of our capital gain net income and 100% of our undistributed income
from prior years. Accordingly, we may not be able to retain sufficient cash flow from operations to meet our debt service requirements and repay our debt. Therefore, we may need to raise additional capital for these purposes, and we
cannot assure you that a sufficient amount of capital will be available to us on favorable terms, or at all, when needed. Further, in order to maintain our REIT qualification and avoid the payment of income and excise taxes, we may
need to borrow funds to meet the REIT distribution requirements even if the then prevailing market conditions are not favorable for these borrowings. These borrowing needs could result from, among other things, differences in timing
between the actual receipt of cash and inclusion of income for federal income tax purposes, or the effect of non-deductible capital expenditures, the creation of reserves or required debt or amortization payments. These sources,
however, may not be available on favorable terms or at all. Our access to third-party sources of capital depends on a number of factors, including the market’s perception of our growth potential, our current debt levels, the per share
trading price of our common stock, and our current and potential future earnings. We cannot assure you that we will have access to such capital on favorable terms at the desired times, or at all, which may cause us to curtail our
investment activities and/or to dispose of assets at inopportune times.
Dividends payable by REITs do not qualify for the reduced tax rates available for some dividends.
The maximum tax rate applicable to “qualified dividend income” payable to U.S. stockholders that are individuals, trusts and estates is 20%. Dividends payable by REITs, however, generally are not eligible for these reduced
rates. Under current law, however, U.S. stockholders that are individuals, trusts and estates generally may deduct up to 20% of the ordinary dividends (e.g., dividends not designated as capital gain dividends or qualified dividend
income) received from a REIT for taxable years beginning before January 1, 2026. Although this deduction reduces the effective tax rate applicable to certain dividends paid by REITs (generally to 29.6% assuming the shareholder is
subject to the 37% maximum rate), such tax rate is still higher than the tax rate applicable to corporate dividends that constitute qualified dividend income. Accordingly, investors who are individuals, trusts and estates may perceive
investments in REITs to be relatively less attractive than investments in the stocks of non-REIT corporations that pay dividends, which could adversely affect the value of the shares of REITs.
28
The tax imposed on REITs engaging in “prohibited transactions” may limit our ability to engage in transactions which would be treated as sales for federal income tax purposes.
A REIT’s net income from prohibited transactions is subject to a 100% penalty tax. In general, prohibited transactions are sales or other dispositions of property, other than foreclosure property, held primarily for sale to
customers in the ordinary course of business. Although we do not intend to hold any properties that would be characterized as held for sale to customers in the ordinary course of our business, unless a sale or disposition qualifies under
certain statutory safe harbors, such characterization is a factual determination and no guarantee can be given that the IRS would agree with our characterization of our properties or that we will always be able to make use of the
available safe harbors.
Complying with REIT requirements may affect our profitability and may force us to liquidate or forgo otherwise attractive investments.
To qualify as a REIT, we must continually satisfy tests concerning, among other things, the nature and diversification of our assets, the sources of our income and the amounts we distribute to our stockholders. We may be
required to liquidate or forgo otherwise attractive investments in order to satisfy the asset and income tests or to qualify under certain statutory relief provisions. We also may be required to make distributions to stockholders at
disadvantageous times or when we do not have funds readily available for distribution. As a result, having to comply with the distribution requirement could cause us to: (1) sell assets in adverse market conditions; (2) borrow on
unfavorable terms; or (3) distribute amounts that would otherwise be invested in future acquisitions, capital expenditures or repayment of debt. Accordingly, satisfying the REIT requirements could have an adverse effect on our
business results, profitability and ability to execute our business plan. Moreover, if we are compelled to liquidate our investments to meet any of these asset, income or distribution tests, or to repay obligations to our lenders, we may be
unable to comply with one or more of the requirements applicable to REITs or may be subject to a 100% tax on any resulting gain if such sales constitute prohibited transactions.
Legislative or other actions affecting REITs could have a negative effect on us.
The rules dealing with federal income taxation are constantly under review by persons involved in the legislative process and by the IRS and the U.S. Department of the Treasury. Changes to the tax laws, with or without
retroactive application, could adversely affect our investors or us. We cannot predict how changes in the tax laws might affect our investors or us. New legislation, Treasury Regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions
could significantly and negatively affect our ability to qualify as a REIT or the federal income tax consequences of such qualification, or the federal income tax consequences of an investment in us. Also, the law relating to the tax
treatment of other entities, or an investment in other entities, could change, making an investment in such other entities more attractive relative to an investment in a REIT.

Tenants
Our portfolio of properties has a stable and diversified tenant base. As of December 31, 2021, our consolidated properties were 96.7% leased to tenants in a variety of industries, with no single tenant accounting for more than
2.70% of our total annualized in-place base rent. Our average lease size is approximately 22,000 square feet, and approximately 41% of our total leased square feet consists of leases that are less than 50,000 square feet each. Our 10
largest tenants combined accounted for 13.8% of our annualized base rent as of December 31, 2021. We intend to continue to maintain a diversified mix of tenants in order to limit our exposure to any single tenant or industry.

Leases
Overview
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, 2021, there were 481 triple net leases in our consolidated portfolio,
representing approximately 68.1% of our total annualized base rent.
Modified gross lease. In our modified gross leases, the landlord is responsible for some property-related expenses during the lease term, but a significant amount of the expenses is passed through to the tenant for
reimbursement to the landlord. Modified gross leases often include base year amounts, and expense increases over these amounts are recoverable. 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, 2021, there were 929 modified gross leases in our consolidated portfolio,
representing approximately 23.0% of our total annualized base rent.

Company Overview
Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc. is a self-administered and self-managed full-service REIT focused on owning and operating industrial properties in Southern California infill markets. We were formed as a Maryland corporation
on January 18, 2013 and Rexford Industrial Realty, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), of which we are the sole general partner, was formed as a Maryland limited partnership on January 18, 2013. Through our controlling interest in
our Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries, we acquire, own, improve, redevelop, lease and manage industrial real estate principally located in Southern California infill markets, and from time to time, acquire or provide mortgage
debt secured by industrial property. We are organized and conduct our operations to qualify as a REIT under the Code, and generally are not subject to federal taxes on our income to the extent we distribute our income to our
shareholders and maintain our qualification as a REIT.
As of December 31, 2021, our consolidated portfolio consisted of 296 properties with approximately 36.9 million rentable square feet. In addition, we currently manage an additional 20 properties with approximately 1.0
million rentable square feet.
Our goal is to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for our stockholders by providing superior access to industrial property investments and mortgage debt investments secured by industrial property in high barrier Southern
California infill markets. Our target markets provide us with opportunities to acquire both stabilized properties generating favorable cash flow, as well as properties or land parcels where we can enhance returns through value-add
repositioning and redevelopments. Scarcity of available space and high barriers limiting new construction of for-lease product all contribute to create superior long-term supply/demand fundamentals within our target infill Southern
California industrial property markets. With our vertically integrated operating platform and extensive value-add investment and management capabilities, we believe we are positioned to capitalize upon the opportunities in our markets
to achieve our objectives.

Repositioning & Redevelopment
• During 2021, we stabilized six of our repositioning/redevelopment properties located at 16221 Arthur Street, 8745-8775 Production Avenue, Rancho Pacifica Buildings 1 and 6, 851 Lawrence Drive and the project branded as
“The Merge,” which have a combined 1.0 million rentable square feet, and 19007 Reyes Avenue, which is 4.5 acre industrial site that we converted to a single tenant paved container storage facility.
• During 2021, we pre-leased each of our repositioning/redevelopment properties located at 29025-29055 Avenue Paine, 12133 Greenstone Avenue and 900 East Ball Road to a single tenant. The leases are expected to
commence in 2022 subject to completion of repositioning/redevelopment site work.
Equity
• During 2021, we issued 28,484,776 shares of common stock for total net proceeds of $1.6 billion through a range of equity transactions, as follows:
◦ We issued 3,201,560 shares of common stock under our at-the-market equity offering program for gross proceeds of $167.3 million, or approximately $52.27 per share, and net proceeds of $165.2 million after deducting
the sales agents’ fee.
◦ We entered into forward equity sales agreements under our at-the-market equity offering program with respect to 8,589,572 shares of our common stock at a weighted average initial forward sale price of $62.87 per
share. We partially settled these forward equity sales agreements by issuing 6,683,216 shares of common stock in exchange for net proceeds of $405.3 million. As of December 31, 2021, we had 1,906,356 shares of
common stock, or approximately $134.0 million of anticipated net proceeds remaining for settlement to occur by November 15, 2022.
◦
◦
In May 2021, we entered into forward equity sales agreements in connection with an underwritten public offering of 9,000,000 shares of our common stock at an initial forward sale price of $55.29 per share, or $497.6
million. In June 2021, we partially settled these forward equity sales agreements by issuing 1,809,526 shares of common stock in exchange for net proceeds of $100.0 million, and in September 2021, we settled the
remaining 7,190,474 shares outstanding under the forward equity sale agreements for net proceeds of $395.0 million.
In September 2021, we completed an underwritten public offering in which we issued an aggregate of 3,100,000 shares of common stock to the underwriters at a purchase price of $58.65 per share for proceeds of $181.8
million, and entered into forward equity sale agreements for 6,500,000 shares of common stock at an initial forward sale price of $58.65 per share. In December 2021, we fully settled the 6,500,000 shares outstanding
under the forward equity sale agreements for net proceeds of $379.1 million.
• On August 16, 2021, we redeemed all 3,600,000 shares of our 5.875% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) at a redemption price of $25.00 per share, plus all accrued and unpaid
dividends through August 15, 2021.
Financing
• On June 30, 2021, we exercised the accordion option on our existing credit facility to increase the borrowing capacity of our senior unsecured revolving credit facility by $200.0 million to $700.0 million from $500.0 million.
• On June 30, 2021, we amended our $150 million unsecured term loan facility to, among other things, reduce the applicable LIBOR margin by 60 basis points so that our current pricing is LIBOR plus 0.95% per annum, subject
to our credit ratings.
•
In August 2021, we completed an underwritten public offering of $400 million aggregate principal amount of 2.150% Senior Notes due 2031 (the “$400 Million Notes due 2031”). The $400 Million Notes due 2031 were issued
to the public at 99.014% of the principal amount. The net proceeds from the offering, after deducting the underwriting discount, were approximately $393.5 million and are expected to be allocated to investments in recently
completed or future green building, energy and resource efficiency and renewable energy projects, including the development and redevelopment of such projects. Pending the allocation to eligible green projects, proceeds were
initially used to repay our $225.0 million unsecured term loan facility due 2023, to fund the redemption of all shares of our Series A Preferred Stock, and acquisition activities.
Factors That May Influence Future Results of Operations
51
COVID-19 Update
In March 2020, in response to COVID-19, most municipalities in Southern California, including many municipalities in which we own properties, mandated a moratorium on all commercial evictions and gave tenants impacted
by COVID-19 the unilateral right to defer rent while the emergency orders are in effect, with repayment generally within six to twelve months after the end of the local emergency. During 2021, many municipalities allowed their local
orders to expire or modified the orders to exclude some tenants (based on the tenant’s number of employees, being a publicly traded company or multinational company, or other characteristics). Most recently in Los Angeles County,
where we operate a significant portion of our portfolio, the county’s eviction restrictions and rent deferment rights expired on January 31, 2022, with respect to municipalities outside the City of Los Angeles, leaving a small number
remaining municipalities, including the City of Los Angeles, where the restrictions will expire when the local emergency is lifted.
During 2020, a limited number of our tenants took advantage of the relief provided by the local government mandates authorizing deferral of rent, irrespective of such tenants’ actual ability to pay such rent. As a result, during
2020, we provided rent relief to tenants in the form of deferred rent of approximately $4.6 million, which represented approximately 1.4% of our total consolidated rental income for 2020. We did not enter into any rent relief
agreements granting additional deferrals of base rent during 2021. As of December 31, 2021, we have collected approximately $4.3 million, or 98.0%, of the deferred payments due as of December 31, 2021.
The continued impact of the pandemic on our and our tenants’ businesses is largely dependent on the number and severity of future COVID-19 variants, efforts to stem the spread of COVID-19, including governmental efforts
to encourage vaccinations, and overall vaccination rates in the areas in which we own properties.
Market and Portfolio Fundamentals
Our operating results depend upon the infill Southern California industrial real estate market.
The infill Southern California industrial real estate sector has continued to exhibit strong fundamentals. These high-barrier infill markets are characterized by a relative scarcity of available product, generally operating at or above
approximately 98% occupancy, coupled with the limited ability to introduce new supply due to high land and redevelopment costs and a dearth of developable land in markets experiencing a net reduction in supply as over time more
industrial property is converted to non-industrial uses than can be delivered. Consequently, available industrial supply has continued to decrease in many of our target infill submarkets and construction deliveries have fallen short of
demand. Meanwhile, underlying tenant demand within our infill target markets continues to demonstrate growth, illustrated or driven by strong re-leasing spreads and renewal activity, an expanding regional economy, substantial growth
in ecommerce transaction and delivery volumes, as well as further compression of delivery time-frames to consumers and to businesses, increasing the significance of last-mile facilities for timely fulfillment.
Tenant demand remains strong within our portfolio, which is strategically located within prime infill Southern California industrial markets. The quality and intensity of tenant demand in 2021 is demonstrated through the
Company’s strong leasing spreads and volume, achieving rental rates and related terms from new and renewing tenants that have generally exceeded those from pre-COVID-19 periods (see “—Leasing Activity and Rental Rates”
below). This tenant demand has been driven by a wide range of sectors, from consumer products, healthcare and medical products to aerospace, food, construction, and logistics, as well as by an emerging electric vehicle industry,
among other sectors. We have also observed a notable increase in ecommerce-oriented tenants securing space within our portfolio, in part driven by the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has accelerated the growth in the range
and volume of goods and customers transacting through ecommerce. In addition, ecommerce-related delivery demand associated with last-mile distribution is driving discernible shifts in inventory-handling strategies among retailers
and distributors, which we believe is driving incremental demand for our infill property locations. Our portfolio, which we believe represents prime locations with superior functionality within the largest last-mile logistics distribution
market in the nation, is well-positioned to attract incremental ecommerce-oriented demand.
We believe our portfolio’s leasing performance in 2021 has generally outpaced that of the infill markets within which we operate, although, as discussed in more detail below, our target infill markets continue to operate at or
near historically high levels of occupancy. We believe this performance has been driven by our highly entrepreneurial business model focused on acquiring and improving industrial property in superior locations so that our portfolio
reflects a higher level of quality and functionality, on average, as compared to typical available product within the markets within which we operate. We also believe the quality and entrepreneurial approach demonstrated by our team of
real estate professionals actively managing our properties and our tenants enables the potential to outcompete within our markets that we believe are generally otherwise owned by more passive, less-focused real estate owners.
52
General Market Conditions
The following are general market conditions and do not necessarily reflect the results of our portfolio. For our portfolio specific results see “—Rental Revenues” and “—Results of Operations” below.
In Los Angeles County, market fundamentals were strong during 2021. Average asking lease rates increased significantly year-over-year and vacancy decreased year-over-year with nearly all submarkets achieving or retaining
sub 1% vacancy rates, bringing overall vacancy to historically low levels. Current market conditions indicate rents are likely to increase through 2022, as demand has been consistently strong, occupancy still remains at near capacity
levels and new development is limited by a lack of land availability and an increase in land and development costs.
In Orange County, market fundamentals were strong during 2021. Average asking lease rates increased significantly year-over-year and vacancy decreased year-over-year to a record low. Current market conditions indicate
rents are likely to continue to increase through 2022, as demand has accelerated over the year and there remains a continued low availability of industrial product in this region.
In San Diego, vacancy decreased year-over-year to a record low and average asking lease rates increased year-over-year.
In Ventura County, vacancy decreased year-over-year and average asking lease rates increased year-over-year.
Lastly, in the Inland Empire, new industrial product continues to be absorbed well in the market. In the Inland Empire West, which contains infill markets in which we operate, vacancy decreased year-over-year, reaching a new
historic low, and average asking lease rates increased year-over-year at a historically high rate. Current market conditions indicate rents are likely to continue to increase through 2022. We generally do not focus on properties located
within the non-infill Inland Empire East sub-market where available land and the development and construction pipeline for new supply is substantial.
Acquisitions and Value-Add Repositioning and Redevelopment of Properties
The Company’s growth strategy comprises acquiring leased, stabilized properties as well as properties with value-add opportunities to improve functionality and to deploy our value-driven asset management programs in order
to increase cash flow and value. Additionally, from time to time, we may acquire industrial outdoor storage sites, land parcels or properties with excess land for ground-up redevelopment projects. Acquisitions may comprise single
property investments as well as the purchase of portfolios of properties, with transaction values ranging from approximately $10 million single property investments to portfolios potentially valued in the billions of dollars. The
Company’s geographic focus remains infill Southern California. However, from time-to-time, portfolios could be acquired comprising a critical mass of infill Southern California industrial property that could include some assets
located in markets outside of infill Southern California. In general, to the extent non-infill-Southern California assets were to be acquired as part of a larger portfolio, the Company may underwrite such investments with the potential to
dispose such assets over a certain period of time in order to maximize its core focus on infill Southern California, while endeavoring to take appropriate steps to satisfy REIT safe harbor requirements to avoid prohibited transactions
under REIT tax laws.
A key component of our growth strategy is to acquire properties through off-market and lightly marketed transactions that are often operating at below-market occupancy or below-market rent at the time of acquisition or that
have near-term lease roll-over or that provide opportunities to add value through functional or physical repositioning and improvements. Through various repositioning, redevelopment, and professional leasing and marketing strategies,
we seek to increase the properties’ functionality and attractiveness to prospective tenants and, over time, to stabilize the properties at occupancy rates that meet or exceed market rates.
A repositioning can provide a range of property improvements. This may include a complete structural renovation of a property whereby we convert large underutilized spaces into a series of smaller and more functional
spaces, or it may include the creation of additional square footage, the modernization of the property site, the elimination of functional obsolescence, the addition or enhancement of loading areas and truck access, the enhancement of
fire-life-safety systems or other accretive improvements, in each case designed to improve the cash flow and value of the property. We have a number of significant repositioning properties, which are presented in the tables below, as
well as range of smaller spaces in repositioning, that due to their smaller size, relative scope, projected repositioning costs or relatively nominal amount of down-time, are not presented below, however, in the aggregate, may be
substantial.
A repositioning property that is considered significant is typically defined as a property where a significant amount of space is held vacant in order to implement capital improvements, the cost to complete repositioning work
and lease-up is estimated to be greater than $1 million and the repositioning and lease-up time frame is estimated to be greater than six months. A repositioning is generally considered complete once the investment is fully or nearly
fully deployed and the property is available for occupancy. Because each repositioning effort is unique and determined based on the property, targeted tenants and overall trends in the general market and specific submarket, the timing
and effect of the repositioning on our rental revenue and
53
occupancy levels will vary, and, as a result, will affect the comparison of our results of operations from period to period with limited predictability.
A redevelopment property is defined as a property where we plan to fully or partially demolish an existing building(s) due to building obsolescence and/or a property with excess or vacant land where we plan to construct a
ground-up building.
As of December 31, 2021, eleven of our properties were under current repositioning or redevelopment and none of our properties were in the lease-up stage. In addition, we have a pipeline of 17 additional properties for which we
anticipate beginning repositioning/redevelopment construction work between the first quarter of 2022 and the first quarter of 2023. The tables below set forth a summary of these properties, as well the properties that were most recently
stabilized in 2021 and 2020, as the timing of these stabilizations have a direct impact on our current and comparative results of operations. We consider a repositioning/redevelopment property to be stabilized upon the earlier of (i)
reaching 90% occupancy or (ii) one year from the date construction work is completed.

(1) The estimated start period is the period we anticipate starting physical construction on a project. Prior to physical construction, we engage in pre-construction activities, which include design work, securing permits or
entitlements, site work, and other necessary activities preceding construction. The estimated completion period is our current estimate of the period in which we will have substantially completed a project and the project is made
available for occupancy. We expect to update our timing estimates on a quarterly basis. The estimated construction period is subject to change as a result of a number of factors including but not limited to permit requirements,
delays in construction (including delays related to the COVID-19 pandemic), changes in scope, and other unforeseen circumstances.
(2)
“Total Property Rentable Square Feet” is the total rentable square footage of the entire property or particular building(s) (footnoted if applicable) under repositioning/lease-up. “Repositioning/Lease-up Rentable Square Feet ” is
the actual rentable square footage that is subject to repositioning at the property/building, and may be less than Total Property Rentable Square Feet.
(3) At 12821 Knott Street, we are repositioning the existing 120,800 rentable square foot building and constructing approximately 45,000 rentable square feet of new warehouse space.
(4) At 12133 Greenstone Avenue, a 4.8 acre industrial site, we demolished the existing 12,586 rentable square foot truck terminal building to provide greater functionality as a single tenant container storage facility. As of
December 31, 2021, the property has been pre-leased with the lease expected to commence in March 2022, subject to completion of repositioning work.
(5) At 15650-15700 Avalon Boulevard, we demolished one of the two original buildings and are currently in the process of repositioning the property into a single-tenant low coverage facility with one 98,259 rentable square foot
building.
(6) As of December 31, 2021, 900 East Ball Road has been pre-leased with the lease expected to commence in July 2022, subject to completion of repositioning work.
(7) Represents the estimated rentable square footage of the project upon completion of redevelopment.
(8) As of December 31, 2021, 29025-29055 Avenue Paine has been pre-leased with the lease expected to commence in March 2022, subject to completion of redevelopment work.
(9) At 15601 Avalon Boulevard, we demolished a previously existing building (63,690 rentable square feet), and we will construct a new 86,879 rentable square foot building.
(10) At 9615 Norwalk Boulevard, we demolished the previously existing buildings and are currently in the process of constructing a new 201,467 rentable square foot building.
(11) As of December 31, 2021, 12752-12822 Monarch Street comprises two buildings totaling 276,585 rentable square feet. We intend to demolish one of the buildings (104,570 rentable square feet) and construct a new 97,450
rentable square foot building in its place, as well as reposition 60,690 rentable square feet of the adjacent second building. At completion, the total project will contain 269,465 rentable square feet.
(12) At 4416 Azusa Canyon Road, we intend to demolish the existing building (70,510 rentable square feet) and construct a new 130,063 rentable square foot building.
(13) At 1901 Via Burton, we intend to construct a new 139,521 RSF building. In September 2021, we leased the property to a tenant under a short-term lease to provide income for part of the entitlement period.
(14) As of December 31, 2021, 3233 Mission Oaks Blvd comprises 461,717 rentable square feet. We plan to demolish 52,500 rentable square feet and construct two new buildings comprising 173,124 rentable square feet. At
completion, the total project will contain 582,341 rentable square feet.
(15) We consider a repositioning property to be stabilized upon the earlier of (i) reaching 90% occupancy or (ii) one year from the date construction work is completed.
(16) Rancho Pacifica Buildings 1 & 6 are located at 2301-2329 Pacifica Place and 2332-2366 Pacifica Place, and represent two buildings totaling 488,114 rentable square feet, out of six buildings at our Rancho Pacifica Park property,
which have a total 1,152,883 rentable square feet. Property leased percentage reflects the two buildings.
(17) At 19007 Reyes Avenue, a 4.5 acre industrial site, we removed the dysfunctional improvements and converted the site into a single tenant industrial outdoor storage facility for container storage.
Properties that are nonoperational as a result of repositioning or redevelopment activity may qualify for varying levels of interest, insurance and real estate tax capitalization during the redevelopment and construction period. An
increase in our repositioning and redevelopment activities resulting from value-add acquisitions could cause an increase in the asset balances qualifying for interest, insurance and tax capitalization in future periods. We capitalized $4.5
million of interest expense and $2.2 million of insurance and real estate tax expense during the year ended December 31, 2021, related to our repositioning and redevelopment projects.

Rental Revenues
Our operating results depend primarily upon generating rental revenue from the properties in our portfolio. The amount of rental revenue generated by these properties is affected by our ability to maintain or increase
occupancy levels and rental rates at our properties, which will depend upon our ability to lease vacant space and re-lease expiring space at favorable rates.
Occupancy Rates
As of December 31, 2021, our consolidated portfolio, inclusive of space in repositioning as described in the subsequent paragraph, was approximately 96.3% occupied, while our stabilized consolidated portfolio exclusive of
such space was approximately 98.9% occupied. We believe the opportunity to increase occupancy at our properties will be an important driver of future revenue growth. An opportunity to drive this growth will derive from the
completion and lease-up of repositioning and redevelopment projects that are currently under construction.
As summarized in the tables under “Acquisitions and Value-Add Repositioning and Redevelopment of Properties” above, as of December 31, 2021, eleven of our properties with a combined 1.2 million rentable square feet at
completion are under current repositioning or redevelopment. Additionally, we have a near-term pipeline of 17 repositioning and redevelopment projects with a combined 2.5 million of estimated rentable square feet at completion.
Vacant space at these properties is concentrated in our Los Angeles, Orange County and San Diego markets and represents 2.6% of our total consolidated portfolio square footage as of December 31, 2021. Including vacant space at
these properties, our weighted average occupancy rate as of December 31, 2021, in our Los Angeles, Orange County and San Diego markets was 94.9%, 95.4% and 97.3%, respectively. Excluding vacant space at these properties, our
weighted average occupancy rate as of December 31, 2021, in these markets was 98.3%, 99.8% and 99.4%, respectively. We believe that an important portion of our long-term future growth will come from the completion of these
projects currently under or scheduled for repositioning, as well as through the identification or acquisition of new opportunities for repositioning and redevelopment, whether in our existing portfolio or through new investments, which
may vary from period to period subject to market conditions.
The occupancy rate of properties not undergoing repositioning is affected by regional and local economic conditions in our Southern California infill markets. In the last several years, the Los Angeles, Orange County and San
Diego markets have continued to show historically low vacancy and positive absorption, resulting from high tenant demand combined with low product availability. Accordingly, our properties in these markets have generally exhibited
a similar trend. We believe that general market conditions will remain positive in 2022, and the opportunity to increase occupancy and rental rates at our properties will be an important driver of future revenue growth; however, there
can be no assurance that recent positive market trends will continue, due in part to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the impact it will have on the global economy and our local infill Southern California markets.

(1) Effective rent per square foot is the average base rent calculated in accordance with GAAP, over the term of the lease, expressed in dollars per square foot per year. Includes all new and renewal leases that were executed during
each respective quarter.
(2) Calculated as the change between GAAP rents, which straightlines rental rate increases and abatements, for new or renewal leases and the expiring GAAP rents on the expiring leases for the same space.
(3) Calculated as the change between starting cash rents, excluding any abatements, for new or renewal leases and the expiring cash rents on the expiring leases for the same space.
(4) The GAAP and cash re-leasing spreads for new leases executed during the year ended December 31, 2021, exclude 53 leases aggregating 1,492,680 rentable square feet for which there was no comparable lease data. Of these 53
excluded leases, 17 leases aggregating 869,628 rentable square feet are leases of recently repositioned/redeveloped space. Comparable leases generally exclude: (i) space that has never been occupied under our ownership, (ii)
recently repositioned/redeveloped space, (iii) space that has been vacant for over one year or (iv) space with lease terms shorter than six months.
(5) The GAAP and cash re-leasing rent spreads for renewal leases executed during the year ended December 31, 2021, exclude six leases aggregating 102,577 rentable square feet for which there was no comparable lease data.
Comparable leases generally exclude space with lease terms shorter than six months.
(6)
Includes 20 leases totaling 1,073,544 rentable square feet that expired during the year ended December 31, 2021, for which the space has been or will be placed into repositioning or redevelopment.
(7) Retention is calculated as renewal lease square footage plus relocation/expansion square footage, divided by the square footage of leases expiring during the period. Retention excludes square footage related to the following: (i)
expiring leases associated with space that is placed into repositioning after the tenant vacates, (ii) early terminations with pre-negotiated replacement leases and (iii) move outs where space is directly leased by subtenants.
Our leasing activity is impacted both by our repositioning and redevelopment efforts, as well as by market conditions. While we reposition a property, its space may become unavailable for leasing until completion of our
repositioning efforts. As of December 31, 2021, we have 11 current repositioning/redevelopment projects with estimated construction completion periods ranging from the first quarter of 2022 through the first quarter of 2023, and an
additional 17 repositioning and redevelopment projects in our pipeline with estimated completion dates through the first quarter of 2024. We expect these properties to have positive impacts on our leasing activity and revenue
generation as we complete our value-add plans and place these properties in service.
Scheduled Lease Expirations
Our ability to re-lease space subject to expiring leases is affected by economic and competitive conditions in our markets and by the relative desirability of our individual properties, which may impact our results of operations.
As of December 31, 2021, 0.3 million rentable square feet of our portfolio was available for lease, 1.0 million rentable square feet of vacant space was under repositioning/redevelopment and leases representing 0.2 million
rentable square feet of our portfolio expired on December 31, 2021. Additionally, leases representing 13.1% and 13.8% of the aggregate rentable square footage of our portfolio are scheduled to expire during the years ending
December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2021, we renewed 268 leases for 3.9 million rentable square feet, resulting in a 74.4% retention rate. Our retention rate during the period was impacted by
the combination of low vacancy and high demand in many of our key
57
markets. New and renewal leases signed during the current year had a weighted average term of 5.2 and 4.5 years, respectively, and we expect future new and renewal leases to have similar terms.
The leases scheduled to expire during the years ending December 31, 2022 and 2023, represent 13.2% and 14.3%, respectively, of the total annualized base rent for our portfolio as of December 31, 2021. We estimate that, on a
weighted average basis, in-place rents of leases scheduled to expire in 2022 and 2023 are currently below current market asking rates, although individual units or properties within any particular submarket may currently be leased
either above, below, or at the current market asking rates within that submarket.
As described under “Market and Portfolio Fundamentals” above, while market indicators, including changes in vacancy rates and average asking lease rates, varied by market, overall there was continued low market vacancy
and pervasive supply and demand imbalance across our submarkets, which continues to support strong market fundamentals including positive rental growth. Therefore we expect market dynamics to remain strong heading into 2022
and that these positive trends will provide a favorable environment for additional increases in lease renewal rates. Accordingly, we expect 2022 will show positive renewal rates and leasing spreads.
Conditions in Our Markets
The properties in our portfolio are located primarily in Southern California infill markets. Positive or negative changes in economic or other conditions, including the impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and related
state and local government reactions, adverse weather conditions and natural disasters in this market may affect our overall performance.
Property Expenses
Our property expenses generally consist of utilities, real estate taxes, insurance, site repair and maintenance costs, and the allocation of overhead costs. For the majority of our properties, our property expenses are recovered, in
part, by either the triple net provisions or modified gross expense reimbursements in tenant leases. The majority of our leases also comprise contractual three percent or greater annual rental rate increases meant, in part, to help mitigate
potential increases in property expenses over time. However, the terms of our leases vary and, in some instances, we may absorb property expenses. Our overall financial results will be impacted by the extent to which we are able to
pass-through property expenses to our tenants.
Taxable REIT Subsidiary
As of December 31, 2021, our Operating Partnership indirectly and wholly owns Rexford Industrial Realty and Management, Inc., which we refer to as our services company. We have elected, together with our services
company, to treat our services company as a taxable REIT subsidiary for federal income tax purposes. A taxable REIT subsidiary generally may provide non-customary and other services to our tenants and engage in activities that we
or our subsidiaries (other than a taxable REIT subsidiary) may not engage in directly without adversely affecting our qualification as a REIT, provided a taxable REIT subsidiary may not operate or manage a lodging facility or health
care facility or provide rights to any brand name under which any lodging facility or health care facility is operated. We may form additional taxable REIT subsidiaries in the future, and our Operating Partnership may contribute some
or all of its interests in certain wholly owned subsidiaries or their assets to our services company. Any income earned by our taxable REIT subsidiaries will not be included in our taxable income for purposes of the 75% or 95% gross
income tests, except to the extent such income is distributed to us as a dividend, in which case such dividend income will qualify under the 95%, but not the 75%, gross income test. Because a taxable REIT subsidiary is subject to
federal income tax and state and local income tax (where applicable) as a regular corporation, the income earned by our taxable REIT subsidiaries generally will be subject to an additional level of tax as compared to the income earned
by our other subsidiaries. Our taxable REIT subsidiary is a C-corporation subject to federal and state income tax. However, it has a cumulative unrecognized net operation loss carryforward and therefore there is no income tax provision
for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of 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 revenues and expenses for the reporting periods. Actual amounts may differ from these estimates and assumptions. We have summarized below those accounting policies that require
material subjective or complex judgments and that have the most significant impact on financial condition and results of operations. Management evaluates these estimates on an ongoing basis, based upon information currently
available and on various assumptions that it believes are reasonable as of the date hereof. In addition, other companies in similar businesses may use different estimation policies and methodologies, which may impact the comparability
of our results of operations and financial condition to those of other companies.
A critical accounting policy is one that is both important to the portrayal of an entity’s financial condition and results of operations and requires judgment on the part of management. Generally, the judgment requires
management to make estimates and assumptions about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Estimates are prepared using management’s best judgment, after considering past and current economic conditions and
expectations for the future. Changes in estimates could affect our financial position and specific items in our results of operations that are used by the users of our financial statements in their evaluation of our performance.
The following critical accounting policies discussion reflects what we believe are the most significant estimates, assumptions, and judgments used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. For further discussion of
our significant accounting policies and discussion of new accounting pronouncements (if applicable), see “Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our consolidated financial statements under Item 15 of this report on
Form 10-K.
Investment in Real Estate
We evaluated the acquisitions that we completed during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, and determined that these transactions should be accounted for as asset acquisitions. Our acquisitions of properties generally no
longer meet the revised definition of a business under Accounting Standards Update 2017-01, Business Combinations - Clarifying the Definition of a Business, and accordingly are accounted for as asset acquisitions.
For asset acquisitions, we allocate the cost of the acquisition, which includes the purchase price and associated acquisition transaction costs, to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed on a relative fair value basis. These
individual assets and liabilities typically include land, building and improvements, tenant improvements, intangible assets and liabilities related to above- and below-market leases, intangible assets related to in-place leases, and from
time to time, assumed debt.
Our estimates for the fair value of the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed are subject to uncertainty given the significant assumptions used to determine their fair value. The use of different assumptions in the
determination of fair value could significantly affect the reported amounts of the allocation of our acquisition related assets and liabilities and the related depreciation and amortization expense recorded for such assets and liabilities. In
addition, because the value of above- and below-market leases are amortized as either a reduction or increase to rental income, respectively, our judgments for these intangibles could have a significant impact on our reported rental
revenues and results of operations. Our estimation process and the valuation model we use to determine the fair value of the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed are discussed in more detail in “Note 2 – Summary of
Significant Accounting Policies” to our consolidated financial statements included in Item 15 of this Report on Form 10-K.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with the provisions of the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets Subsections of ASC Topic 360: Property, Plant, and Equipment, we assess the carrying values of our respective long-lived assets,
including right-of use assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of these assets may not be fully recoverable.
Impairment of the carrying value of long-lived assets are subject to uncertainty associated with forecasting future cash flows for measuring recoverability. Recoverability of real estate assets and other long-lived assets is
measured by comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to the estimated future undiscounted cash flows. 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 respect to our investment that occur subsequent to our impairment analyses could impact these assumptions and result in future impairment
of our real estate properties. See “Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our consolidated financial statements included in Item 15 of this Report on Form 10-K for further details regarding our estimation process for
impairment of long-lived assets.
59
Valuation of Operating Lease Receivables
We may be subject to tenant defaults and bankruptcies that could affect the collection of outstanding receivables. We perform an assessment of the collectability of operating lease receivables on a tenant-by-tenant basis, which
includes reviewing the age and nature of our receivables, the payment history and financial condition of the tenant, our assessment of the tenant’s ability to meet its lease obligations and the status of negotiations of any disputes with the
tenant. Accordingly, assumptions used to estimate collectability of operating lease receivables can change from period to period based on the tenants’ payment history, financial condition and other tenant specific factors. An increase or
decrease in our assessment of the uncollectible amount for an operating lease receivable by $1,000 will have an opposite impact of an equivalent amount on our rental income in the consolidated statements of operations. See “Note 2 –
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our consolidated financial statements included in Item 15 of this Report on Form 10-K for further details regarding valuation of operating lease receivables.
Equity Based Compensation
We account for equity-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718 Compensation – Stock Compensation. Total compensation cost for all share-based awards is based on the estimated fair market value on the grant
date. The grant date fair value for equity awards that contain market-based vesting conditions (such as the Company’s total shareholder return (“TSR”) or the Company’s TSR relative to the TSR of a selected peer group of companies)
are performed using complex pricing valuation models, specifically a Monte Carlo simulation pricing model, that require the input of assumptions, including judgments to estimate expected stock price volatility and expected dividend
yield. For equity awards that contain performance-based vesting conditions (such as the Company’s FFO per share growth) we recognize compensation cost based on the number of awards that are expected to vest based on the
probable outcome of the performance condition over the performance period. If factors change causing different assumptions to be made on the number of awards expected to vest, estimated compensation expense may differ
significantly from that recorded in the current period but ultimately, the compensation cost for these awards will be adjusted in future periods to reflect the actual number of awards that vest. See “Note 2 – Summary of Significant
Accounting Policies” and “Note 13 – Incentive Award Plan” to our consolidated financial statements included in Item 15 of this Report on Form 10-K for further details regarding our estimation process for equity-based compensation.
Results of Operations
Our consolidated results of operations are often not comparable from period to period due to the effect of (i) property acquisitions, (ii) property dispositions and (iii) properties that are taken out of service for repositioning or
redevelopment during the comparative reporting periods. Our “Total Portfolio” represents all of the properties owned during the reported periods. To eliminate the effect of changes in our Total Portfolio due to acquisitions, dispositions
and repositioning/redevelopment and to highlight the operating results of our on-going business, we have separately presented the results of our “Same Properties Portfolio.”
Comparison of the Year Ended December 31, 2021 to the Year Ended December 31, 2020
For the comparison of the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, our Same Properties Portfolio includes all properties in our industrial portfolio that were wholly-owned by us for the period from January 1, 2020 through
December 31, 2021, and that were stabilized prior to January 1, 2020, which consisted of 193 properties aggregating approximately 24.6 million rentable square feet. Results for our Same Properties Portfolio exclude any properties that
were acquired or sold during the period from January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2021, properties classified as current or future repositioning, redevelopment or lease-up during 2020 or 2021, interest income, interest expense and
corporate general and administrative expenses.
For the comparison of the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, our Total Portfolio includes the properties in our Same Properties Portfolio, the 91 properties aggregating approximately 10.6 million rentable square feet
that were acquired during 2021 and 2020, and the nine properties aggregating approximately 0.5 million rentable square feet that were sold during 2021 and 2020.
As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, our Same Properties Portfolio occupancy was approximately 99.1% and 98.2%, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, our Same Properties Portfolio weighted
average occupancy was approximately 98.6% and 97.9%, respectively.

Our Same Properties Portfolio and Total Portfolio rental income increased by $24.3 million, or 8.3%, and $122.4 million, or 37.1%, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to the year ended
December 31, 2020, for the reasons described below:
61
(1) Rental Revenue
Our Same Properties Portfolio and Total Portfolio rental revenue increased by $19.6 million, or 7.9%, and $99.1 million, or 35.8%, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to the year ended
December 31, 2020. The increase in our Same Properties Portfolio rental revenue is primarily due to an increase in average rental rates on new and renewal leases, an increase in the weighted average occupancy of the portfolio, and a
net increase in rental revenue of $4.6 million due to the combination of bad debt recoveries and a decrease in reserves for tenant and deferred rent receivables deemed not probable of collection, partially offset by a decrease of $2.5
million of amortization of net below-market lease intangibles. Our Total Portfolio rental revenue was also positively impacted by the incremental revenues from the 91 properties we acquired during 2020 and 2021, partially offset by
the decrease in revenues from the nine properties that were sold during 2020 and 2021.
(2) Tenant Reimbursements
Our Same Properties Portfolio and Total Portfolio tenant reimbursements revenue increased by $4.6 million, or 9.9%, and $22.8 million or 43.8%, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to the year
ended December 31, 2020. The increase in our Same Properties Portfolio tenant reimbursements revenue is primarily due to an increase in the weighted average occupancy of the portfolio and an increase in recoverable property
expenses, including higher reimbursable property tax expenses relating to California Proposition 13 annual increases and higher reimbursable insurance expenses as a result of higher overall premiums and additional earthquake
insurance coverage. Our Total Portfolio tenant reimbursements revenue was also impacted by the incremental reimbursements from the 91 properties we acquired during 2020 and 2021, partially offset by the decrease in
reimbursements from the nine properties that were sold during 2020 and 2021.
(3) Other Income
Our Same Properties Portfolio and Total Portfolio other income increased by $0.2 million, or 41.8%, and $0.5 million, or 77.4%, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to the year ended December 31,
2020, primarily due to an increase in miscellaneous income, including $0.1 million proceeds received in 2021 related to a fire insurance claim.
Management, Leasing and Development Services
Our Total Portfolio management, leasing and development services revenue increased by $48 thousand, or 11.4%, for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to the year ended December 31, 2020.
Interest Income
Our Total Portfolio interest income decreased by $0.3 million, or 89.1%, during the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to the year ended December 31, 2020, due to a decrease in both the average interest rate earned and
the average cash balance invested in money market accounts.
Property Expenses
Our Same Properties Portfolio and Total Portfolio property expenses increased by $3.8 million, or 5.5%, and $28.0 million, or 35.1%, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to the year ended
December 31, 2020. The increase in our Same Properties Portfolio property expenses is primarily due to increases in insurance expense resulting from higher overall premiums and additional earthquake insurance coverage, allocated
overhead costs reflecting a higher employee headcount and labor costs, and real estate tax expense relating to California Proposition 13 annual increases. Our Total Portfolio property expenses were also impacted by incremental
expenses from the 91 properties we acquired during 2020 and 2021, partially offset by the decrease in property expenses from the nine properties that were sold during 2020 and 2021.
General and Administrative
Our Total Portfolio general and administrative expenses increased by $12.2 million, or 33.1% for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to the year ended December 31, 2020. The increase is primarily due to increases
in non-cash equity compensation expense primarily related to performance unit equity grants made in 2020, accrued bonus expense and payroll related costs due to a higher employee headcount and rising labor costs.
62
Depreciation and Amortization
Our Same Properties Portfolio depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $4.1 million, or 4.0%, for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to the year ended December 31, 2020, primarily due to acquisition-
related in-place lease intangibles and tenant improvements becoming fully depreciated at certain properties during 2020 and 2021, partially offset by an increase in depreciation expense related to capital improvements placed into
service during 2020 and 2021 and an increase in amortization of deferred leasing costs. Our Total Portfolio depreciation and amortization expense increased by $36.0 million, or 31.2%, for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared
to the year ended December 31, 2020, primarily due to incremental expense from the 91 properties we acquired during 2020 and 2021, partially offset by the decrease in our Same Properties Portfolio depreciation and amortization
expense noted above.
Other Expenses
Our Total Portfolio other expenses increased by $1.2 million, or 946.0%, for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to the year ended December 31, 2020. Other expenses for the year ended December 31, 2021, include (i) a
$1.0 million impairment charge to reduce the carrying value of the right-of-use asset related to one of our leased office spaces that we decided to sublease as a result of the implementation of a work from home flexibility program in
2021, (ii) $0.2 million of construction costs related to cancelled projects and (iii) $0.1 million of acquisition expenses. Other expenses of $0.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, consist only of acquisition expenses. This
prior year amount was reclassified from acquisition expenses to other expenses to conform to the current year’s presentation.
Interest Expense
Our Total Portfolio interest expense increased by $9.3 million, or 30.1%, during the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to the year ended December 31, 2020. The increase in interest expense is primarily comprised of
the following: (i) a $8.0 million increase due to the issuance of $400.0 million of 2.125% senior notes in November 2020, (ii) a $3.8 million increase due to the issuance of $400.0 million of 2.15% senior notes in August 2021, (iii) a
$1.2 million increase due to an increase in borrowings under our unsecured revolving credit facility and higher facility fees due to an increase in our borrowing capacity and (iv) a $1.0 million increase due to the assumption of $79.6
million of debt as part of the consideration for the acquisition of 11 properties during 2020 and two additional properties during 2021. These increases were partially offset by the following decreases: (i) a $1.8 million net decrease
related to the repayment of our $100.0 million term loan facility and termination of the related interest rate swap in November 2020, (ii) a $1.5 million net decrease related to the repayment of the $225 Million Term Loan Facility and
termination of the related interest rate swaps in August 2021 and (iii) a $0.6 million increase in capitalized interest related to redevelopment and repositioning activity. See “Note 7 – Notes Payable” to the consolidated financial
statements for additional details related to our interest rate swaps.
Loss on Extinguishment of Debt
The loss on extinguishment of debt of $0.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 represents the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs related to the $225 million term loan facility we repaid in August 2021 in
advance of the January 2023 maturity date. The loss on extinguishment of debt of $0.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 represents the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs related to the $100 million term loan
facility we repaid in November 2020 in advance of the February 2022 maturity date.
Gain on Sale of Real Estate
During the year ended December 31, 2021, we recognized a total gain on sale of real estate of $33.9 million from the disposition of five properties that were sold for an aggregate gross sales price of $59.3 million. During the
year ended December 31, 2020, we recognized a total gain on sale of real estate of $13.6 million which is comprised of (i) a total gain of $14.5 million from the disposition of four properties that were sold for an aggregate gross sales
price of $45.5 million, and (ii) a $0.9 million loss on disposition of personal property that was originally acquired as part of the acquisition of 1055 Sandhill Avenue and valued at $2.8 million.
Comparison of the Year Ended December 31, 2020 to the Year Ended December 31, 2019
Refer to “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Results of Operations” in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on February 19, 2021,
for a discussion of the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to the year ended December 31, 2019.
63
Non-GAAP Supplemental Measures: Funds From Operations and Core Funds From Operations
We calculate funds from operations (“FFO”) attributable to common stockholders in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). FFO represents net
income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable operating property or assets incidental to our business, impairment losses of depreciable operating property or assets incidental
to our business, real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs) and after adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures.
Management uses FFO as a supplemental performance measure because, in excluding real estate related depreciation and amortization, gains and losses from property dispositions, and asset impairments, it provides a
performance measure that, when compared year over year, captures trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs. We also believe that, as a widely recognized measure of performance used by other REITs, FFO may be
used by investors as a basis to compare our operating performance with that of other REITs.
However, because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization and captures neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions, nor the level of capital expenditures and leasing
commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which have real economic effects and could materially impact our results from operations, the utility of FFO as a measure of our performance is
limited. Other equity REITs may not calculate or interpret 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.
We calculate “Core FFO” by adjusting FFO to exclude the impact of certain items that we do not consider reflective of our on-going operating performance. Core FFO adjustments consist of (i) acquisition expenses, (ii) loss on
extinguishment of debt, (iii) the amortization of the loss on termination of interest rate swaps, (iv) impairments of right-of-use assets and (v) other amounts as they may occur. We believe that Core FFO is a useful supplemental measure
as it provides a more meaningful and consistent comparison of operating performance and allows investors to more easily compare the Company's operating results. Because these adjustments have a real economic impact on our
financial condition and results from operations, the utility of Core FFO as a measure of our performance is limited. Other REITs may not calculate Core FFO in a consistent manner. Accordingly, our Core FFO may not be comparable to
other REITs' core FFO. Core FFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income computed in accordance with GAAP as a measure of our performance. “Company share of Core FFO” in the table below reflects Core FFO
attributable to common stockholders, which excludes amounts allocable to noncontrolling interests, participating securities and preferred stockholders (which consists of preferred stock dividends, but excludes non-recurring preferred
stock redemption charges related to the write-off of original issuance costs which we do not consider reflective of our on-going performance).

Non-GAAP Supplemental Measures: NOI and Cash NOI
Net operating income (“NOI”) is a non-GAAP measure which includes the revenue and expense directly attributable to our real estate properties. NOI is calculated as rental income less property expenses (before interest expense,
depreciation and amortization).
We use NOI as a supplemental performance measure because, in excluding real estate depreciation and amortization expense, general and administrative expenses, interest expense, gains (or losses) on sale of real estate and other
non-operating items, it provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, captures trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs. We also believe that NOI will be useful to investors as a basis to compare
our operating performance with that of other REITs. However, because NOI excludes depreciation and amortization expense and captures neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions, nor
the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties (all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our results from operations), the utility of
NOI as a measure of our performance is limited. Other equity REITs may not calculate NOI in a similar manner and, accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to such other REITs’ NOI. Accordingly, NOI should be considered only
as a supplement to net income as a measure of our performance. NOI should not be used as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs. NOI should not be used as a substitute for cash flow
from operating activities in accordance with GAAP.
NOI on a cash-basis (“Cash NOI”) is a non-GAAP measure, which we calculate by adding or subtracting the following items from NOI: (i) fair value lease revenue and (ii) straight-line rental revenue adjustments. We use Cash NOI,
together with NOI, as a supplemental performance measure. Cash NOI should not be used as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs. Cash NOI should not be used as a substitute for cash
flow from operating activities computed in accordance with GAAP.

Non-GAAP Supplemental Measure: EBITDAre
We calculate earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization for real estate (“EBITDAre”) in accordance with the standards established by NAREIT. EBITDAre is calculated as net income (loss)
(computed in accordance with GAAP), before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable operating property or assets incidental to our business, impairment losses of
depreciable operating property or assets incidental to our business and adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures.
We believe that EBITDAre 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 properties. We also use this
measure in ratios to compare our performance to that of our industry peers. In addition, we believe EBITDAre is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of equity REITs. However,
our industry peers may not calculate EBITDAre in accordance with the NAREIT definition as we do and, accordingly, our EBITDAre may not be comparable to our peers’ EBITDAre. Accordingly, EBITDAre should be considered
only as a supplement to net income (loss) as a measure of our performance.

In March 2020, the SEC adopted amendments to Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X and created Rule 13-01 to simplify disclosure requirements related to certain registered securities. The rule became effective January 4, 2021. The
Company and the Operating Partnership have filed a registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC registering, among other securities, debt securities of the Operating Partnership, which will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed
by the Company. At December 31, 2021, the Operating Partnership had issued and outstanding $400.0 million of 2.125% Senior Notes due 2030 (the “$400 Million Notes due 2030”) and the $400 Million Notes due 2031. The
obligations of the Operating Partnership to pay principal, premiums, if any, and interest on the $400 Million Notes due 2030 and $400 Million Notes due 2031 are guaranteed on a senior basis by the Company. The guarantee is full and
unconditional, and the Operating Partnership is a consolidated subsidiary of the Company.
As a result of the amendments to Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X, subsidiary issuers of obligations guaranteed by the parent are not required to provide separate financial statements, provided that the subsidiary obligor is
consolidated into the parent company’s consolidated financial statements, the parent guarantee is “full and unconditional” and, subject to certain exceptions as set forth below, the alternative disclosure required by Rule 13-01 is
provided, which includes narrative disclosure and summarized financial information. Accordingly, separate consolidated financial statements of the Operating Partnership have not been presented. Furthermore, as permitted under Rule
13-01(a)(4)(vi), the Company has excluded the summarized financial information for the Operating Partnership as the assets, liabilities and results of operations of the Company and the Operating Partnership are not materially different
than the corresponding amounts presented in the consolidated financial statements of the Company, and management believes such summarized financial information would be repetitive and not provide incremental value to investors.
Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
Our short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds to pay for operating expenses, interest expense, general and administrative expenses, capital expenditures, tenant improvements and leasing commissions, and
distributions to our common and preferred stockholders and holders of common units of partnership interests in our Operating Partnership (“OP Units”). We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements through available cash
on hand, cash flow from operations, by drawing on our unsecured revolving credit facility and by issuing shares of common stock pursuant to the at-the-market equity offering program or issuing other securities as described below.
Our long-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for acquisitions, recurring and non-recurring capital expenditures and scheduled debt maturities. As of December 31, 2021, we had outstanding fixed-
rate and variable-rate debt with varying maturities for an aggregate principal amount of $1.4 billion, with $2.6 million due within 12 months. Future interest payments associated with our debt and interest rate swaps total $293.7 million,
with $40.7 million due within 12 months. We have $52.0 million of commitments for tenant improvements under certain tenant leases and construction work related to obligations under contractual agreements with our construction
vendors. We also have operating lease commitments for an aggregate lease payment of $5.3 million, with $1.6 million due within 12 months. We intend to satisfy our long-term liquidity needs through net cash flow from operations,
proceeds from long-term secured and unsecured financings, borrowings available under our unsecured revolving credit facility, the issuance of equity securities, including preferred stock, and proceeds from selective real estate
dispositions as we identify capital recycling opportunities. See “Note 5 – Notes Payable” to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 15 of this Report on Form 10-K for further details regarding the scheduled principal
payments. Also see “Note 6 – Leases” to the consolidated financial statements for further details regarding the scheduled operating lease payments.
67
As of December 31, 2021, our cash and cash equivalents were $44.0 million, and we did not have any borrowings outstanding under our unsecured revolving credit facility, leaving $700.0 million available for future
borrowings.
Sources of Liquidity
Cash Flow from Operations
Cash flow from operations is one of our key sources of liquidity and is primarily dependent upon: (i) the occupancy levels and lease rates at our properties, (ii) our ability to collect rent, (iii) the level of operating costs we incur
and (iv) our ability to pass through operating expenses to our tenants. Our ability to use cash from operations to continue to meet our liquidity needs could be affected by various risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the
effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. We are subject to a number of risks, which have been heightened as the result of the COVID-19 pandemic, related to general economic conditions, including reduced occupancy levels, tenant defaults
and bankruptcies and potential reductions in rental rates on new and renewal leases, which have the potential to affect our overall performance and resulting cash flows from operations.
ATM Program
On November 9, 2020, we established an at-the-market equity offering program pursuant to which we were able to sell from time to time shares of our common stock having an aggregate sales price of up to $750.0 million (the
“2020 ATM Program”) through sales agents or by entering into forward equity sale agreements with certain financial institutions acting as forward purchasers.
During the year ended December 31, 2021, we directly sold a total of 3,201,560 shares of our common stock under the 2020 ATM Program at a weighted average price of $52.27 per share, for gross proceeds of $167.3 million,
and net proceeds of $165.2 million, after deducting the sales agents’ fee.
During the year ended December 31, 2021, we also entered into forward equity sale agreements with certain financial institutions acting as forward purchasers under the 2020 ATM Program with respect to 8,589,572 shares of
our common stock at a weighted average initial forward sale price of $62.87 per share. We did not receive any proceeds from the sale of common shares by the forward purchasers at the time of sale.
During the year ended December 31, 2021, we physically settled a portion of the forward equity sale agreements related to the 2020 ATM Program by issuing 6,683,216 shares of common stock in exchange for net proceeds of
$405.3 million. The net proceeds were calculated based on a weighted average net forward sale price at the time of settlement of $60.65 per share. As of December 31, 2021, we had 1,906,356 shares of common stock, or approximately
$134.0 million of forward net proceeds remaining for settlement to occur by November 15, 2022, based on net forward sales price of $70.27 per share.
On January 13, 2022, we established a new at-the-market equity offering program pursuant to which we are able to sell from time to time shares of our common stock having an aggregate sales price of up to $750.0 million (the “2022
ATM Program”) directly through sales agents or by entering into forward equity sale agreements with certain financial institutions acting as forward purchasers. In connection with the establishment of the 2022 ATM Program, we
terminated the 2020 ATM Program, under which we had offered and sold shares of our common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of $743.9 million through January 13, 2022. As of the filing date of this Annual Report on
Form 10-K, we have not sold any share of our common stock under the 2022 ATM Program. Future sales, if any, under the 2022 ATM Program will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by us from time to time, including
among others, market conditions, the trading price of our common stock and capital needs. We intend to use the net proceeds from the offering of shares under the 2022 ATM Program, if any, to fund potential acquisition opportunities,
repay amounts outstanding from time to time under our unsecured revolving credit facility or other debt financing obligations, to fund our repositioning or redevelopment activities and/or for general corporate purposes.
Securities Offerings
We evaluate the capital markets on an ongoing basis for opportunities to raise capital, and as circumstances warrant, we may issue additional securities, from time to time, to fund acquisitions, for the repayment of long-term
debt upon maturity and for other general corporate purposes. Such securities may include common equity, preferred equity and/or debt of us or our subsidiaries. Any future issuance, however, is dependent upon market conditions,
available pricing and capital needs and there can be no assurance that we will be able to complete any such offerings of securities.
Issuance of $400 Million Notes Due 2031 — On August 4, 2021, we completed the underwritten public offering of the $400 Million Notes due 2031. The $400 Million Notes due 2031 were issued to the public at 99.014% of
the principal amount,
68
with a coupon rate of 2.150%. Interest on the $400 Million Notes due 2031 is payable semiannually on the first day of March and September in each year, beginning on March 1, 2022, until maturity on September 1, 2031.
We may redeem the $400 Million Notes due 2031 at our option and sole discretion, in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to June 1, 2031 (three months prior to the maturity date of the $400 Million Notes due
2031), at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the $400 Million Notes due 2031 being redeemed; and (ii) a make-whole premium calculated in accordance with the indenture. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, on or after June 1, 2031 (three months prior to the maturity date of the $400 Million Notes due 2031), the redemption price will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the $400 Million Notes due 2031 being
redeemed.
The proceeds from the $400 Million Notes due 2031 are expected to be allocated to investments in recently completed or future green building, energy and resource efficiency and renewable energy projects, including the
development and redevelopment of such projects. Pending the allocation to eligible green projects, proceeds were initially used to repay the $225 Million Term Loan Facility, to fund the redemption of all shares of the Series A Preferred
Stock, and acquisition activities.
May 2021 Equity Offering — On May 24, 2021, we entered into forward equity sale agreements with certain financial institutions acting as forward purchasers in connection with an underwritten public offering of 9,000,000
shares of common stock at an initial forward sale price of $55.29 per share (the “May 2021 Forward Sale Agreements”), pursuant to which, the forward purchasers borrowed and sold an aggregate of 9,000,000 shares of common stock
in the offering. We did not receive any proceeds from the sale of common shares by the forward purchasers at the time of the offering.
In June 2021, we partially settled the May 2021 Forward Sale Agreements by issuing 1,809,526 shares of common stock in exchange for net proceeds of $100.0 million. The net proceeds were calculated based on the net
forward sale price on the settlement date of $55.26 per share.
In September 2021, we settled the remaining shares under the May 2021 Forward Sale Agreements by issuing 7,190,474 shares of our common stock in exchange for net proceeds of $395.0 million. The net proceeds were
calculated based on the net forward sale price on the settlement date of $54.93.
September 2021 Equity Offering — On September 27, 2021, we completed an underwritten public offering of 9,600,000 shares of common stock in which we (i) issued an aggregate of 3,100,000 shares of common stock to the
underwriters at a purchase price of $58.65 per share for proceeds of $181.8 million, and (ii) entered into forward equity sale agreements with certain financial institutions acting as forward purchasers for 6,500,000 shares of common
stock at an initial forward sale price of $58.65 per share (the “September 2021 Forward Sale Agreements”), pursuant to which the forward purchasers borrowed and sold an aggregate of 6,500,000 shares of common stock in the
offering. In December 2021, we fully settled the 6,500,000 shares outstanding under the September 2021 Forward Sale Agreements for net proceeds of $379.1 million.
Capital Recycling
We continuously evaluate opportunities for the potential disposition of properties in our portfolio when we believe such disposition is appropriate in view of our business objectives. In evaluating these opportunities, we
consider a variety of criteria including, but not limited to, local market conditions and lease rates, asset type and location, as well as potential uses of proceeds and tax considerations. Tax considerations include entering into a 1031
Exchange, when possible, to defer some or all of the taxable gains, if any, on dispositions.
During the year ended December 31, 2021, we completed the sale of five properties for a total gross sales price of $59.3 million and total net cash proceeds of $56.6 million. The net cash proceeds were used to partially fund
the acquisition of seven properties during the year ended December 31, 2021, through 1031 Exchange transactions.
We anticipate continuing to selectively and opportunistically dispose of properties, however, the timing of any potential future dispositions will depend on market conditions, asset-specific circumstances or opportunities, and
our capital needs. Our ability to dispose of selective properties on advantageous terms, or at all, is dependent upon a number of factors including the availability of credit to potential buyers to purchase properties at prices that we
consider acceptable, which may be impacted by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
Investment Grade Rating
Our credit ratings at December 31, 2021, were Baa3 (Stable outlook) from Moody’s, BBB (Positive outlook) from S&P and BBB (Positive outlook) from Fitch with respect to our Credit Agreement (described below), $150
million unsecured term loan facility (the “$150 Million Term Loan Facility”), $100 million unsecured guaranteed senior notes (the “$100 Million Notes”), $25 million unsecured guaranteed senior notes and $75 million unsecured
guaranteed senior notes (together the “Series 2019A and 2019B Notes”), $400 Million Notes due 2030 and $400 Million Notes due 2031. Our credit rating at December 31, 2021, was BB+ from both Fitch and S&P with respect to our
5.875% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock and our 5.625%
69
Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock. Our credit ratings are based on our operating performance, liquidity and leverage ratios, overall financial position and other factors employed by the credit rating agencies in their
rating analysis of us, and, although it is our intent to maintain our investment grade credit rating, there can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain our current credit ratings. In the event our current credit ratings are
downgraded, it may become difficult or more expensive to obtain additional financing or refinance existing indebtedness as maturities become due.
Credit Agreement
On June 30, 2021, we exercised our option under the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) to utilize the accordion feature to increase the authorized borrowing capacity of our unsecured revolving
credit facility (the “Revolver”) by $200.0 million from $500.0 million to $700.0 million. Subject to certain terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement, we may increase the size of the Credit Agreement by an additional
$700.0 million, which may be comprised of additional revolving commitments under the Revolver, term loan tranches or any combination of the foregoing.
The Revolver is scheduled to mature on February 13, 2024 and has two six-month extension options available. The Revolver may be voluntarily prepaid in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty. Interest on
the Revolver is generally to be paid based upon, at our option, either (i) LIBOR plus an applicable margin that is based upon our investment grade ratings or (ii) the Base Rate (which is defined as the highest of (a) the federal funds rate
plus 0.50%, (b) the administrative agent’s prime rate or (c) the Eurodollar Rate plus 1.00%) plus an applicable margin that is based on our investment grade ratings. As of December 31, 2021, the margins for the Revolver range from
0.725% to 1.40% per annum for LIBOR-based loans and 0.00% to 0.45% per annum for Base Rate-based loans, depending on our investment grade ratings.
In addition to the interest payable on amounts outstanding under the Revolver, we are required to pay an applicable facility fee on each lender's commitment amount under the Revolver, regardless of usage. The applicable facility fee
ranges in amount from 0.125% to 0.300% per annum, depending on our investment grade ratings.
The Credit Agreement contains usual and customary events of default including defaults in the payment of principal, interest or fees, defaults in compliance with the covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement and other loan
documentation, cross-defaults to certain other indebtedness, and bankruptcy and other insolvency defaults. If an event of default occurs and is continuing under the Credit Agreement, the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding
loans, together with all accrued unpaid interest and other amounts owing in respect thereof, may be declared immediately due and payable.
As of the filing date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we had $175.0 million outstanding under the Revolver, leaving $525.0 million available for future borrowings.
Uses of Liquidity
Acquisitions
One of our most significant liquidity needs has historically been for the acquisition of real estate properties. During the year ended December 31, 2021, we acquired 53 properties with 5.7 million rentable square feet of
buildings and 176 acres of low coverage outdoor storage sites and land for near term redevelopment for an aggregate purchase price of $1.9 billion. Subsequent to December 31, 2021, through the filing date of this Form 10-K, we have
acquired six properties with 0.5 million rentable square feet of buildings for an aggregate purchase price of $183.0 million, and we are actively monitoring a volume of properties in our markets that we believe represent attractive
potential investment opportunities to continue to grow our business. As of the filing date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we have over $450.0 million of acquisitions under contract or letter of intent. There can be no assurance we
will complete any such acquisitions. While the actual number of acquisitions that we complete will be dependent upon a number of factors, in the short term, we expect to fund our acquisitions through available cash on hand, cash
flows from operations, borrowings available under the Revolver, recycling capital through property dispositions and, in the long term, through the issuance of equity securities or proceeds from long-term secured and unsecured
financings. See “Note 3 – Investments in Real Estate” to the consolidated financial statements for a summary of the properties we acquired during the year ended December 31, 2021.
Recurring and Nonrecurring Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures are considered part of both our short-term and long-term liquidity requirements. During the year ended December 31, 2021, we incurred $10.5 million of recurring capital expenditures, which was an
increase of $3.5 million over the prior year. During the year ended December 31, 2021, we incurred $80.5 million of non-recurring capital expenditures, which was an increase of $14.0 million over the prior year. The increase was
primarily due to the increase in non-recurring capital expenditures related to repositioning/redevelopment activity during 2021 compared to 2020. As discussed above under —Factors that May Influence Future Results —Acquisitions
and Value-Add Repositioning and Redevelopment of Properties, as of
70
December 31, 2021, 11 of our properties were under current repositioning, redevelopment, or lease-up, and we have a pipeline of 17 additional properties for which we anticipate beginning construction work over the next five quarters.
We currently estimate that approximately $330.6 million of capital will be required over the next three years (2022-2024) to complete the repositioning/redevelopment of these properties. However, this estimate is based on our current
construction plans and budgets, both of which are subject to change as a result of a number of factors, including as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions intended to prevent its spread, which has and may continue to cause
delays or which may increase costs associated with building materials or construction services. If we are unable to complete construction on schedule or within budget, we could incur increased construction costs and experience
potential delays in leasing the properties. We expect to fund these projects through a combination of cash flow from operations, the issuance of common stock under the 2022 ATM Program and borrowings available under the Revolver.
Dividends and Distributions
In order to maintain our qualification as a REIT, we are required to distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding any net capital gains. To
satisfy the requirements to qualify as a REIT and generally not be subject to U.S. federal income tax, we intend to distribute a percentage of our cash flow on a quarterly basis to holders of our common stock. In addition, we intend to
make distribution payments to holders of OP Units and preferred units, and dividend payments to holders of our preferred stock.
On February 7, 2022, our board of directors declared the following quarterly cash dividends/distributions:

(1) Includes the effect of interest rate swaps that were effective as of December 31, 2021. Excludes the effect of amortization of debt issuance costs, discounts and the facility fee on the Revolver. Assumes a one-month LIBOR rate
of 0.1013% as of December 31, 2021, as applicable.
(2) Excludes unamortized debt issuance costs and debt discounts totaling $13.6 million as of December 31, 2021.
At December 31, 2021, we had total indebtedness of $1.4 billion, excluding unamortized debt issuance costs and debt discounts, with a weighted average interest rate of approximately 2.85% and an average term-to-maturity of
7.7 years. As of December 31, 2021, $1.4 billion, or 96%, of our outstanding indebtedness had an interest rate that was effectively fixed under either the terms of the loan ($1.2 billion) or an interest rate swap ($150.0 million).
At December 31, 2021, we had total indebtedness of $1.4 billion, reflecting a net debt to total combined market capitalization of approximately 9.1%. Our total market capitalization is defined as the sum of the liquidation
preference of our outstanding preferred stock and preferred units plus the market value of our common stock excluding shares of nonvested restricted stock, plus the aggregate value of common units not owned by us, plus the value of
our net debt. Our net debt is defined as our consolidated indebtedness less cash and cash equivalents.
Debt Covenants
The Credit Agreement, $150 Million Term Loan Facility, $100 Million Notes, $125 Million Notes and Series 2019A and 2019B Notes all include a series of financial and other covenants that we must comply with, including
the following covenants which are tested on a quarterly basis:
• Maintaining a ratio of total indebtedness to total asset value of not more than 60%;
• For the Credit Agreement and $150 Million Term Loan Facility, maintaining a ratio of secured debt to total asset value of not more than 45%;

73
The $400 Million Notes due 2030 and $400 Million Notes due 2031 contain the following covenants (as defined in the indentures) that we must comply with:
• Maintaining a ratio of total indebtedness to total asset value of not more than 60%;

The Credit Agreement, $150 Million Term Loan Facility and Senior Notes also contain limitations on our ability to pay distributions on our common stock. Specifically, our cash dividends may not exceed the greater of (i) 95% of our
FFO (as defined in the credit agreement) and (ii) the amount required for us to qualify and maintain our REIT status. If an event of default exists, we may only make distributions sufficient to qualify and maintain our REIT status.
Additionally, subject to the terms of the Senior Notes, upon certain events of default, including, but not limited to, (i) a default in the payment of any principal, make-whole payment amount, or interest under the Senior Notes, (ii) a
default in the payment of certain of our other indebtedness, (iii) a default in compliance with the covenants set forth in the Senior Notes agreement and (iv) bankruptcy and other insolvency defaults, the principal and accrued and unpaid
interest and the make-whole payment amount on the outstanding Senior Notes will become due and payable at the option of the purchasers. In addition, we are required to maintain at all times a credit rating on the Senior Notes from
either S&P, Moody’s or Fitch.
The $60 Million Term Loan contains the following financial covenants:
• Maintaining a Debt Service Coverage Ratio (as defined in the term loan agreement) of at least 1.10 to 1.00, to be tested quarterly;
• Maintaining Unencumbered Liquid Assets (as defined in the term loan agreement) of not less than (i) $5 million, or (ii) $8 million if we elect to have Line of Credit Availability (as defined in the term loan agreement)
included in the calculation, of which $2 million must be cash or cash equivalents, to be tested annually as of December 31 of each year;
• Maintaining a minimum Fair Market Net Worth (as defined in the term loan agreement) of at least $75 million, to be tested annually as of December 31 of each year.
We were in compliance with all of our quarterly and annual debt covenants as of December 31, 2021.

Net cash provided by operating activities. Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $48.5 million to $231.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to $183.0 million for the year ended
December 31, 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to the incremental cash flows from property acquisitions completed subsequent to January 1, 2020, and the increase in Cash NOI from our Same Properties Portfolio and
changes in working capital (excluding the change in sales-type lease receivable), partially offset by a decrease in net proceeds of $19.6 million from the sale of 2722 Fairview Street (“Fairview”), which was sold in September 2020
pursuant to the tenant exercising its option to purchase the property, and an increase in cash interest paid as compared to the prior year.
Net cash used in investing activities. Net cash used in investing activities increased by $925.2 million to $1.9 billion for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to $987.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2020.
The increase was primarily attributable to a $934.1 million increase in cash paid for property acquisitions and acquisition related deposits and a $23.7 million increase in cash paid for construction and repositioning/redevelopment
projects, partially offset by a $32.6 million
74
increase in net proceeds from the sale of received from the sale of properties (excluding the proceeds from the sale of Fairview noted above) for comparable periods.
Net cash provided by financing activities. Net cash provided by financing activities increased by $644.6 million to $1.5 billion for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to $903.2 million for the year ended
December 31, 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to the following: (i) an increase of $892.0 million in net cash proceeds from the issuance of shares of our common stock, (ii) an increase of $793.5 million in cash proceeds
from borrowings under the Revolver, (iii) an increase of $392.4 million in net cash proceeds from the issuance of the $400 Million Notes due 2031 in August 2021 and (iv) an increase of $100.0 million from the repayment of the $100
Million Term Loan Facility in November 2020. These increases were partially offset by the following: (i) a decrease of $793.5 million from the repayment of the borrowings under the Revolver, (ii) a decrease of $393.0 million in net
cash proceeds from the issuance of the $400 Million Noted due 2030 in November 2020, (iii) a decrease of $225.0 million from the repayment of the $225 Million Term Loan Facility in August 2021, (iv) a decrease of $90.0 million
from the redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock and (v) an increase of $33.6 million in dividends paid to common stockholders and common unitholders primarily resulting from the increase in the number of common shares
outstanding and the increase in our quarterly per share cash dividend.
Comparison of the Year Ended December 31, 2020 to the Year Ended December 31, 2019
Refer to “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Cash Flows” in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on February 19, 2021, for a
discussion of the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to the year ended December 31, 2019.
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 to real estate taxes, utility expenses and other operating expenses may be 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. However, a prolonged period of high and persistent inflation could cause an increase in our operating expenses, capital expenditures and cost of our
variable-rate borrowings which could have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market risk refers to the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. A key market risk we face is interest rate risk. We are exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of using variable-rate
debt to satisfy various short-term and long-term liquidity needs, which have interest rates based upon LIBOR. We use interest rate swaps to manage, or hedge, interest rate risks related to our borrowings. Because actual interest rate
movements over time are uncertain, our swaps pose potential interest rate risks, notably if interest rates fall. We also expose ourselves to credit risk, which we attempt to minimize by contracting with highly-rated banking financial
counterparties. For a summary of our outstanding variable-rate debt, see Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources. For a summary of our
interest rate swaps and recent transactions, see “Note 7 – Interest Rate Derivatives” to our consolidated financial statements included in Item 15 of this Report on Form 10-K.
As of December 31, 2021, the $150 Million Term Loan Facility has been effectively fixed through the use of an interest rate swap. The interest rate swap has a notional value of $150.0 million, an effective date of July 22, 2019, a
maturity date of November 22, 2024, and currently fixes the annual interest rate payable on the $150 Million Term Loan Facility at 2.7625% plus an applicable margin under the terms of the $150 Million Term Loan Facility.
At December 31, 2021, we had total consolidated indebtedness, excluding unamortized debt issuance costs and premium/discounts, of $1.41 billion. Of this total amount, $1.36 billion, or 96%, had an interest rate that was effectively
fixed under the terms of the loan or an interest rate swap. The remaining $58.1 million, or 4%, comprises our variable-rate debt. Based upon the amount of variable-rate debt outstanding as of December 31, 2021, if LIBOR were to
increase by 50 basis points, the increase in interest expense on our variable-rate debt would decrease our future earnings and cash flows by approximately $0.3 million annually. If LIBOR were to decrease by 50 basis points, assuming
an interest rate floor of 0%, the decrease in interest expense on our variable-rate debt would increase our future earnings and cash flows by approximately $0.1 million annually.
Interest risk amounts are our management’s estimates and were determined by considering the effect of hypothetical interest rates on our financial instruments. We calculate interest sensitivity by multiplying the amount of variable
rate debt
75
outstanding by the respective change in rate. The sensitivity analysis does not take into consideration possible changes in the balances or fair value of our floating rate debt or the effect of any change in overall economic activity that
could occur in that environment. Further, in the event of a change of that magnitude, we may take actions to further mitigate our exposure to the change. However, due to the uncertainty of the specific actions that would be taken and
their possible effects, this analysis assumes no changes in our financial structure.
Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
All information required by this item is listed in the Index to Financial Statements in Part IV, Item 15(a)(1).
Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
None.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is
processed, recorded, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Co-Chief Executive Officers and
Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired
control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the
design and operation of the disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2021, the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, management has concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and
procedures were effective as of December 31, 2021 at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no significant changes that occurred during the fourth quarter of the most recent year covered by this report in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably
likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer and effected by our 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 GAAP. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and
procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary
to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance
regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company has used the criteria set forth in the Internal Control–Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission to assess our internal control over financial reporting. Based upon this assessment, management concluded that internal control over financial reporting operated
effectively as of December 31, 2021.
76

Opinion on the Financial Statements
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, changes in
equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2021, and the related notes and financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a) (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial
statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each
of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2021, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, based on criteria
established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) and our report dated February 16, 2022 expressed an unqualified opinion
thereon.
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
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 audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. 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.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or
disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the
consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
1
Recognition of acquired real estate - Purchase price accounting
Description of the Matter
As discussed in Notes 2, 3, and 4 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company completed the acquisition of 53 properties for a total purchase price of $1.9 billion during the year ended
December 31, 2021. The transactions were accounted for as asset acquisitions, and the purchase prices were allocated to components based on the relative fair values of the assets acquired and
liabilities assumed. These components include land, buildings and improvements, tenant improvements, intangible assets and liabilities related to above and below market leases, and intangible
assets related to in-place leases. The fair value of tangible and intangible assets and liabilities is based on available comparable market information, and estimated cash flow projections that
utilize rental rates, discount rates, and capitalization rates. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including historical operating results, known and anticipated trends,
and market and economic conditions.
Auditing the fair value of acquired tangible and intangible assets and liabilities involves significant estimation uncertainty due to the judgment used by management in selecting key assumptions
based on recent comparable transactions or market information, and the sensitivity of the fair values to changes in assumptions. The allocation of value to the components of properties acquired
could have a material effect on the Company’s net income due to the differing depreciable and amortizable lives of each component and the classification of the related depreciation or
amortization expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
How We Addressed the Matter in
Our Audit
We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design, and tested the operating effectiveness of controls over the Company’s process for determining and reviewing the key inputs and
assumptions used in estimating the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities and allocating fair value to the various components.
To test the allocation of the acquisition-date fair values, we evaluated the appropriateness of the valuation methods used to allocate the purchase price. We performed procedures to assess the key
data inputs and assumptions used by management described above, including the completeness and accuracy of the underlying information. We also used our specialists to assist us in evaluating
the valuation methods used by management and whether the assumptions utilized were supported by observable market data.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc.
Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO criteria). In our opinion, Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc. (the Company) maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as
of December 31, 2021, based on the COSO criteria.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc. as of December 31, 2021 and
2020, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2021 and the related notes and financial statement schedule
listed in the Index at Item 15(a), and our report dated February 16, 2022 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying
management’s annual report on internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm
registered with the 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 audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was
maintained in all material respects.
Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the
assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed 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. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly
reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) 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 company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention
or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

REXFORD INDUSTRIAL REALTY, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Organization
Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc. is a self-administered and self-managed full-service real estate investment trust (“REIT”) focused on owning and operating industrial properties in Southern California infill markets. We were
formed as a Maryland corporation on January 18, 2013, and Rexford Industrial Realty, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), of which we are the sole general partner, was formed as a Maryland limited partnership on January 18, 2013.
Through our controlling interest in our Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries, we own, manage, lease, acquire and develop industrial real estate principally located in Southern California infill markets, and from time to time, acquire
or provide mortgage debt secured by industrial property. As of December 31, 2021, our consolidated portfolio consisted of 296 properties with approximately 36.9 million rentable square feet. In addition, we currently manage an
additional 20 properties with approximately 1.0 million rentable square feet.
The terms “us,” “we,” “our,” and the “Company” as used in these financial statements refer to Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc. and, unless the context requires otherwise, its subsidiaries (including our Operating Partnership).
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying financial statements are the consolidated financial statements of Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including our Operating Partnership. All significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.
Under consolidation guidance, we have determined that our Operating Partnership is a variable interest entity because the holders of limited partnership interests do not have substantive kick-out rights or participating rights.
Furthermore, we are the primary beneficiary of the Operating Partnership because we have the obligation to absorb losses and the right to receive benefits from the Operating Partnership and the exclusive power to direct the activities of
the Operating Partnership. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the assets and liabilities of the Company and the Operating Partnership are substantially the same, as the Company does not have any significant assets other than its
investment in the Operating Partnership.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) as established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in
the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) including modifications issued under Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”). Any reference to the number of properties, buildings and square footage are unaudited and outside the
scope of our independent auditor’s audit of our financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts in the consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications relate to acquisition expenses for all the prior years presented that
have been reclassified to “Other expenses” to conform to the current year’s presentation and they have no effect on net income or stockholders’ equity as previously reported. Other expenses for the year ended December 31, 2021
include (i) a $1.0 million impairment charge to reduce the right-of-use asset carrying value of one of our leased office spaces that we decided to sublease as a result of the implementation of a work from home flexibility program in
2021, (ii) $0.2 million of construction costs related to cancelled projects and (iii) $0.1 million of acquisition expenses.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying
notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include all cash and liquid investments with an initial maturity of three months or less. The carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short-term maturity of these investments.
F-10
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash is comprised of escrow reserves that we are required to set aside for future costs as required by certain agreements with our lenders, and from time to time, includes cash proceeds from property sales that are
being held by qualified intermediaries for purposes of facilitating tax-deferred like-kind exchanges under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).
Restricted cash balances are included with cash and cash equivalent balances as of the beginning and ending of each period presented in the consolidated statements of cash flows. The following table provides a reconciliation
of our cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash at the beginning and end of the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands):

We account for acquisitions of properties under ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations–Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which provides a framework for determining whether transactions should be accounted for as
acquisitions of assets or businesses and further revises the definition of a business. Our acquisitions of properties generally no longer meet the revised definition of a business and accordingly are accounted for as asset acquisitions.
For asset acquisitions, we allocate the cost of the acquisition, which includes the purchase price and associated acquisition transaction costs, to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed on a relative fair value basis. These
individual assets and liabilities typically include land, building and improvements, tenant improvements, intangible assets and liabilities related to above- and below-market leases, intangible assets related to in-place leases, and from
time to time, assumed mortgage debt. As there is no measurement period concept for an asset acquisition, the allocated cost of the acquired assets is finalized in the period in which the acquisition occurs.
We determine the fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property by valuing the property as if it were vacant. This “as-if vacant” value is estimated using an income, or discounted cash flow, approach that relies upon Level 3
inputs, which are unobservable inputs based on the Company’s assumptions with respect to the assumptions a market participant would use. These Level 3 inputs include discount rates, capitalization rates, market rental rates and
comparable sales data for similar properties. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including historical operating results, known and anticipated trends, and market and economic conditions. In determining
the “as-if-vacant” value for the properties we acquired during the year ended December 31, 2021, we used discount rates ranging from 5.00% to 7.75% and exit capitalization rates ranging from 4.00% to 6.50%.
In determining the fair value of intangible lease assets or liabilities, we also consider Level 3 inputs. Acquired above- and below-market leases are valued based on the present value of the difference between prevailing market rental
rates and the in-place rental rates measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases, if
applicable. The estimated fair value of acquired in-place at-market tenant leases are the estimated costs that would have been incurred to lease the property to the occupancy level of the property at the date of acquisition. We consider
estimated costs such as the value associated with leasing commissions, legal and other costs, as well as the estimated period of time necessary to lease such a property to its occupancy level at the time of its acquisition. In determining
the fair value of acquisitions completed during the year ended December 31, 2021, we used an estimated average lease-up period ranging from six months to twelve months.
The difference between the fair value and the face value of debt assumed, if any, in connection with an acquisition is recorded as a premium or discount and amortized to “interest expense” over the life of the debt assumed. The
valuation of assumed liabilities are based on our estimate of the current market rates for similar liabilities in effect at the acquisition date. In
F-11
determining the fair value of debt assumed during the year ended December 31, 2021, we used estimated market interest rates ranging from 3.75% to 4.50%.
Capitalization of Costs
We capitalize direct costs incurred in developing, renovating, rehabilitating and improving real estate assets as part of the investment basis. This includes certain general and administrative costs, including payroll, bonus, and
non-cash equity compensation of the personnel performing redevelopment, renovations and rehabilitation if such costs are identifiable to a specific activity to get the real estate asset ready for its intended use. During the redevelopment
and construction periods of a project, we also capitalize interest, real estate taxes and insurance costs. We cease capitalization of costs upon substantial completion of the project, but no later than one year from cessation of major
construction activity. If some portions of a project are substantially complete and ready for use and other portions have not yet reached that stage, we cease capitalizing costs on the completed portion of the project but continue to
capitalize for the incomplete portion of the project. Costs incurred in making repairs and maintaining real estate assets are expensed as incurred.
We capitalized interest costs of $4.5 million, $3.9 million and $3.9 million during the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. We capitalized real estate taxes and insurance aggregating $2.2 million, $1.2
million, and $1.3 million and during the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. We capitalized compensation costs for employees who provide construction services of $6.1 million, $4.1 million and $2.7 million
during the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Depreciation and Amortization
Real estate, including land, building and land improvements, tenant improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment 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 regard 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.
The values allocated to buildings, site improvements, in-place lease intangibles and tenant improvements are depreciated on a straight-line basis using an estimated remaining life of 10-30 years for buildings, 5-20 years for site
improvements, and the shorter of the estimated useful life or respective lease term for in-place lease intangibles and tenant improvements.
As discussed above in—Investments in Real Estate—Acquisitions, 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
acquired lease intangible asset or liability and amortized to “rental income” over the remaining term of the related leases.
Our estimate of the useful life of our assets is evaluated upon acquisition and when circumstances indicate that a change in the useful life has occurred, which requires significant judgment regarding the economic obsolescence
of tangible and intangible assets.
Assets Held for Sale
We classify a property as held for sale when all of the criteria set forth in ASC Topic 360: Property, Plant and Equipment (“ASC 360”) have been met. The criteria are as follows: (i) management, having the authority to approve the
action, commits to a plan to sell the property; (ii) the property is available for immediate sale in its present condition, subject only to terms that are usual and customary; (iii) an active program to locate a buyer and other actions required
to complete the plan to sell have been initiated; (iv) the sale of the property is probable and is expected to be completed within one year; (v) the property is being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its
current fair value; and (vi) actions necessary to complete the plan of sale indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn. At the time we classify a property as held for sale,
we cease recording depreciation and amortization. A property classified as held for sale is measured and reported at the lower of its carrying amount or its estimated fair value less cost to sell.
As of December 31, 2021, our property located at 28159 Avenue Stanford in Valencia, California was classified as held for sale. As of December 31, 2020, our property located at 14723-14825.25 Oxnard Street in Van Nuys,
California was classified as held for sale.
F-12
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with the provisions of the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets Subsections of ASC 360, we assess the carrying values of our respective long-lived assets, including right-of-use assets (“ROU assets”),
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of these assets may not be fully recoverable. Recoverability of real estate assets and other long-lived assets is measured by comparison of the carrying
amount of the asset to the estimated future undiscounted cash flows.
To review real estate assets for recoverability, we consider current market conditions as well as our intent with respect to holding or disposing of the asset. The intent with regards to the underlying assets might change as
market conditions and other factors change. For office space ROU assets, the execution of a sublease where the remaining lease payments of the original office space lease exceed the sublease receipts reflects an indication of
impairment which suggests the carrying value of the ROU asset may not be recoverable. 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, 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 estimates of future expectations
and the strategic plan used to manage our underlying business.
If our analysis indicates that the carrying value of the real estate asset and other long-lived assets is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, we will 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 respect
to our investment that occur subsequent to our impairment analyses could impact these assumptions and result in future impairment of our real estate properties. During the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 or 2019, there were no
impairment charges recorded to the carrying value of our real estate properties. During the year ended December 31, 2021, in connection with the execution of a sublease for one of our office space leases, we recorded a $1.0 million
impairment charge to reduce the carrying value of the related ROU asset. See “Note 6 – Leases” for details.

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code commencing with our initial taxable year ended December 31, 2013. To qualify as a REIT, we are required (among other things) to distribute at least 90% of our REIT
taxable income to our stockholders and meet the various other requirements imposed by the Code relating to matters such as operating results, asset holdings, distribution levels and diversity of stock ownership. Provided we qualify for
taxation as a REIT, we are generally not subject to corporate-level income tax on the earnings distributed currently to our stockholders that we derive from our activities. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, and were
unable to avail ourselves of certain savings provisions set forth in the Code, all of our taxable income would be subject to regular federal corporate income tax, including any applicable alternative minimum tax.
In addition, we are subject to taxation by various state and local jurisdictions, including those in which we transact business or reside. Our non-taxable REIT subsidiaries, including our Operating Partnership, are either
partnerships or disregarded entities for federal income tax purposes. Under applicable federal and state income tax rules, the allocated share of net income or loss from disregarded entities and flow-through entities such as partnerships
is reportable in the income tax returns of the respective equity holders. Accordingly, no income tax provision is included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019.
We periodically evaluate our tax positions to determine whether it is more likely than not that such positions would be sustained upon examination by a tax authority for all open tax years, as defined by the statute of
limitations, based on their technical merits. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, we have not established a liability for uncertain tax positions.
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
ASC Topic 815: Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”), provides the disclosure requirements for derivatives and hedging activities with the intent to provide users of financial statements with an enhanced understanding of: (a) how
and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how the entity accounts for derivative instruments and related hedged items, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial
performance, and cash flows. Further, qualitative disclosures are required that explain the Company’s objectives and strategies for using derivatives, as well as quantitative disclosures about the fair value of and gains and losses on
derivative instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative instruments.
As required by ASC 815, we record all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, and whether we have elected to designate
a derivative in a
F-13
hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to changes in the
fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected
future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. Hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the
recognition of the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk in a fair value hedge or the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transactions in a cash flow hedge. We may enter into
derivative contracts that are intended to economically hedge certain risks, even though hedge accounting does not apply or we elect not to apply hedge accounting. See “Note 7 – Interest Rate Derivatives” for details.
Revenue Recognition
Our primary sources of revenue are rental income, management, leasing and development services and gains on sale of real estate.
Rental Income
We lease industrial space to tenants primarily under non-cancelable operating leases that generally contain provisions for minimum base rents plus reimbursement for certain operating expenses. Total minimum annual lease payments
are recognized in rental income on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease, regardless of when payments are contractually due, when collectability is probable. Rental revenue recognition commences when the tenant takes
possession or controls the physical use of the leased space. Lease termination fees, which are included in rental income, are recognized when the related leases are canceled and we have no continuing obligation to provide services to
such former tenants.
Our lease agreements with tenants generally contain provisions that require tenants to reimburse us for certain property expenses. Estimated reimbursements from tenants for these property expenses, which include real estate taxes,
insurance, common area maintenance and other recoverable operating expenses, are recognized as revenues in the period that the expenses are incurred. Subsequent to year-end, we perform final reconciliations on a lease-by-lease basis
and bill or credit each tenant for any cumulative annual adjustments. As the timing and pattern of revenue recognition is the same and as the lease component would be classified as an operating lease if it were accounted for separately,
rents and tenant reimbursements are treated as a combined lease component and presented as a single line item “Rental income” in our consolidated statements of operations.
We record revenues and expenses on a gross basis for lessor costs (which include real estate taxes) when these costs are reimbursed to us by our tenants. Conversely, we record revenues and expenses on a net basis for lessor
costs when they are paid by our tenants directly to the taxing authorities on our behalf.
COVID-19 Lease Concessions
From March 2020 through December 2020, we received rent relief requests from a number of tenants claiming impacts from COVID-19, many of whom we believe may have made such rent relief requests in response to local
California governmental moratoriums on commercial tenant evictions and provisions enabling commercial tenants to defer rent. In response to these requests, during 2020 we granted the following forms of rent relief to certain tenants:
(a) application of security deposits to contractual base rent, (b) acceleration of future rent concessions in the original lease contract to cover contractual base rent and (c) deferral of contractual base rent with a typical deferral period of
approximately one to two months and repayment that was generally scheduled to begin in the third or fourth quarter of 2020.
Pursuant to a FASB issued question-and-answer document which addressed frequently asked questions about accounting for concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, we elected to forgo the evaluation of
the enforceable rights and obligations of our lease contracts and elected to account for each rent relief agreement granting lease concessions in the form of accelerated future rent concessions and/or rent deferrals as a lease modification
under ASC 842. As these lease concessions generally have not substantially changed the amount of consideration in the original lease contract (only the timing of lease payments has changed), these lease concessions have not had a
material impact on our consolidated financial statements to date.
During 2020, we deferred $4.6 million of contractual base rent payments which represented approximately 1.4% of our total consolidated rental income for 2020. As of December 31, 2021, we have collected approximately
$4.3 million, or 98.0%, of the deferred payments due as of December 31, 2021. Additionally, as of December 31, 2021, we had approximately $0.1 million of outstanding deferred payments.
F-14
Management, leasing and development services
We provide property management services and leasing services to related party and third-party property owners, the customer, in exchange for fees and commissions. Property management services include performing property
inspections, monitoring repairs and maintenance, negotiating vendor contracts, maintaining tenant relations and providing financial and accounting oversight. For these services, we earn monthly management fees, which are based on a
fixed percentage of each managed property’s monthly tenant cash receipts. We have determined that control over the services is passed to the customer simultaneously as performance occurs. Accordingly, management fee revenue is
earned as the services are provided to our customers.
Leasing commissions are earned when we provide leasing services that result in an executed lease with a tenant. We have determined that control over the services is transferred to the customer upon execution of each lease agreement.
We earn leasing commissions based on a fixed percentage of rental income generated for each executed lease agreement and there is no variable income component.
Gain or Loss on Sale of Real Estate
We account for dispositions of real estate properties, which are considered nonfinancial assets, in accordance with ASC 610-20: Other Income—Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets and recognize a gain or
loss on sale of real estate upon transferring control of the nonfinancial asset to the purchaser, which is generally satisfied at the time of sale. If we were to conduct a partial sale of real estate by transferring a controlling interest in a
nonfinancial asset, while retaining a noncontrolling ownership interest, we would measure any noncontrolling interest received or retained at fair value, and recognize a full gain or loss. If we receive consideration before transferring
control of a nonfinancial asset, we recognize a contract liability. If we transfer control of the asset before consideration is received, we recognize a contract asset.
When leases contain purchase options, we assess the probability that the tenant will execute the purchase option both at lease commencement and at the time the tenant communicates its intent to exercise the purchase option. If
we determine the exercise of the purchase option is reasonably certain, we will account for the lease as a sales-type lease and derecognize the associated real estate assets on our balance sheet and record a gain or loss on sale of real
estate.
Valuation of Operating Lease Receivables
We may be subject to tenant defaults and bankruptcies that could affect the collection of outstanding receivables, including deferred rent receivables arising from the straight-line recognition of rental income, related to our
operating leases. 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. On a quarterly basis, we
perform an assessment of the collectability of operating lease receivables on a tenant-by-tenant basis, which includes reviewing the age and nature of our receivables, the payment history and financial condition of the tenant, our
assessment of the tenant’s ability to meet its lease obligations and the status of negotiations of any disputes with the tenant. For all periods subsequent to March 2020, our assessment has specifically included the impact of the COVID-
19 pandemic, including but not limited to tenants who have requested and/or received rent relief as further described above under “—COVID-19 Lease Concessions.” Any changes in the collectability assessment for an operating lease
is recognized as an adjustment, which can be a reduction or increase, to rental income in the consolidated statements of operations. As a result of our quarterly collectability assessments, we recognized $0.5 million, $5.0 million, and
$0.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019 respectively, as a net reduction of rental income in the consolidated statements of operations.
Deferred Leasing Costs
We capitalize the incremental direct costs of originating a lease that would not have been incurred had the lease not been executed. As a result, deferred leasing costs will generally only include third-party broker commissions.
Debt Issuance Costs
Debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability are presented in the balance sheet as a reduction from the carrying value of the debt liability. This offset against the debt liability is treated similarly to a debt discount, which
effectively reduces the proceeds of a borrowing. For line of credit arrangements, we present debt issuance costs as an asset and amortize the cost over the term of the line of credit arrangement. See “Note 5 –Notes Payable” for details.
Equity Based Compensation
We account for equity-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718 Compensation – Stock Compensation. Total compensation cost for all share-based awards is based on the estimated fair market value of the equity
instrument issued on the grant date. For share-based awards that vest based solely on a service condition, we recognize compensation cost on a
F-15
straight-line basis over the total requisite service period for the entire award. For share-based awards that vest based on a market condition, we recognize compensation cost on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of
each separately vesting tranche. For share-based awards that vest based on a performance condition, we recognize compensation cost based on the number of awards that are expected to vest based on the probable outcome of the
performance condition. Compensation cost for these awards will be adjusted to reflect the number of awards that ultimately vest. Forfeitures are recognized in the period in which they occur. See “Note 13 – Incentive Award Plan” for
details.
Equity Offerings
Underwriting commissions and offering costs incurred in connection with common stock offerings and our at-the-market equity program have been reflected as a reduction of additional paid-in capital. Underwriting
commissions and offering costs related to our preferred stock issuances have been reflected as a direct reduction of the preferred stock balance.
Sales of our common stock under forward equity sale agreements (as discussed in Note 11) meet the derivatives and hedging guidance scope exception to be accounted for as equity instruments based on the following
assessment: (i) none of the agreements’ exercise contingencies were based on observable markets or indices besides those related to the market for our own stock price and operations; and (ii) none of the settlement provisions precluded
the agreements from being indexed to our own stock.
Earnings Per Share
We calculate earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with ASC 260 – Earnings Per Share (“ASC 260”). Under ASC 260, unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends are
participating securities and, therefore, are included in the computation of basic EPS pursuant to the two-class method. The two-class method determines EPS for each class of common stock and participating securities according to
dividends declared (or accumulated) and their respective participation rights in undistributed earnings.
Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period.
Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding determined for the basic EPS computation plus the
potential effect of any dilutive securities including shares issuable under forward equity sale agreements and unvested share-based awards under the treasury stock method. We include unvested shares of restricted stock and unvested
LTIP units in the computation of diluted EPS by using the more dilutive of the two-class method or treasury stock method. We include unvested performance units as contingently issuable shares in the computation of diluted EPS once
the market criteria are met, assuming that the end of the reporting period is the end of the contingency period. Any anti-dilutive securities are excluded from the diluted EPS calculation. See “Note 14 – Earnings Per Share” for details.
Segment Reporting
Management views the Company as a single reportable segment based on its method of internal reporting in addition to its allocation of capital and resources.
Leases as a Lessee
We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating lease ROU assets are included in “Other assets” and lease liabilities are included in “Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities” in our
consolidated balance sheets. ROU assets represent our right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease
ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Because our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on
the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Our lease terms may include
options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease through the amortization of the ROU
assets and lease liabilities. Additionally, for our operating leases, we do not separate non-lease components, such as common area maintenance, from associated lease components. See “Note 6 – Leases” for additional lessee disclosures
required under ASC 842.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Reference Rate Reform
On March 12, 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”). ASU 2020-04 contains practical
expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in ASU 2020-04 is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. During the
first quarter of 2020, we elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions
will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives.
Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives in our financial statements consistent with past presentation. We continue to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections as applicable as
additional changes in the market occur.

In connection with the acquisition of 3100 Lomita Boulevard, we prepaid an existing loan on the property and incurred a $20.4 million prepayment fee at closing. The acquisition price in the table above reflects this prepayment
fee in addition to the $182.0 million contractual purchase price.
In connection with the acquisition of 2500 Victoria Street, we entered into a long-term sale lease-back agreement with the seller/tenant. At the end of the lease, the tenant will be required to restore the site by removing all above
and below ground improvements to prepare the property for subsequent development by us. The acquisition price in the table above reflects the $217.1 million contractual purchase price plus additional consideration of
$15.0 million,which is payable to the tenant at the end of the lease, subject to the tenant completing its restoration obligations under the lease. The $15.0 million has been recorded in security deposits in the consolidated balance
sheets.

On August 4, 2021, we completed an underwritten public offering of $400.0 million of 2.150% Senior Notes due 2031 (the “$400 Million Notes due 2031”). The $400 Million Notes due 2031 were issued to the public at 99.014% of
the principal amount, with a coupon rate of 2.150%. Interest on the $400 Million Notes due 2031 is payable semiannually on the first day of March and September in each year, beginning on March 1, 2022, until maturity on
September 1, 2031. The proceeds from the $400 Million Notes due 2031 are expected to be allocated to investments in recently completed or future green building, energy and resource efficiency and renewable energy projects,
including the development and redevelopment of such projects. Pending the allocation to eligible green projects, proceeds were used to repay our $225.0 million unsecured term loan facility (the “$225 Million Term Loan Facility”) (as
described below), and to fund the redemption of all shares of our 5.875% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock as further described in “Note 11 – Stockholders’ Equity,” and acquisition activities.
We may redeem the $400 Million Notes due 2031 at our option and sole discretion, in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to June 1, 2031 (three months prior to the maturity date of the $400 Million Notes due
2031), at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the $400 Million Notes due 2031 being redeemed; and (ii) a make-whole premium calculated in accordance with the indenture. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, on or after June 1, 2031 (three months prior to the maturity date of the $400 Million Notes due 2031), the redemption price will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the $400 Million Notes due 2031 being
redeemed.

Issuance of $400 Million Notes Due 2030
On November 16, 2020, we completed an underwritten public offering of $400.0 million of 2.125% senior notes due 2030 (the “$400 Million Notes due 2030”). The $400 Million Notes due 2030 were issued at 99.211% of the
principal amount, with a coupon rate of 2.125%. Interest on the $400 Million Notes due 2030 is payable semiannually on the first day of June and December in each year, beginning on June 1, 2021, until maturity on December 1, 2030.
We may redeem the $400 Million Notes due 2030 at our option and sole discretion, in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to September 1, 2030 (three months prior to the maturity date of the $400 Million Notes
due 2030), at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the $400 Million Notes due 2030 being redeemed; and (ii) a make-whole premium calculated in accordance with the indenture.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, on or after September 1, 2030 (three months prior to the maturity date of the $400 Million Notes due 2030), the redemption price will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the $400 Million Notes
due 2030 being redeemed.
Repayment of $225 Million Term Loan Facility
On August 9, 2021, we used a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the $400 Million Notes due 2031 to repay the $225 Million Term Loan Facility in full. We did not incur any prepayment penalties for repaying the
$225 Million Term Loan Facility in advance of the maturity date of January 14, 2023. In connection with the repayment of the $225 Million Term Loan Facility, we wrote off $0.5 million of unamortized debt issuance costs, which is
included in “Loss on extinguishment of debt” in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
Repayment of $100 Million Term Loan Facility
On November 16, 2020, we used a portion of the net proceeds from the issuance of the $400 Million Notes due 2030 to repay the $100 Million Term Loan Facility in full. We did not incur any prepayment penalties for repaying
the $100 Million Term Loan Facility in advance of the maturity date of February 14, 2022. In connection with the repayment of the $100 Million Term Loan, we wrote-off $0.1 million of unamortized debt issuance costs for the year
ended December 31, 2020, which is included in “Loss on extinguishment of debt” in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
Amendment of $150 Million Term Loan
On June 30, 2021, we amended our $150 million unsecured term loan facility (the “$150 Million Term Loan”) to, among other things, reduce the applicable margin pursuant to which amounts outstanding under the $150
Million Term Loan bear interest. Following the amendment, the applicable Eurodollar rate margin ranges from 0.80% to 1.60% per annum and the applicable base rate margin ranges from 0.00% to 0.60% per annum, in each case, based
on our credit rating.
Assumption of Mortgage Loans
On January 27, 2021, in connection with the acquisition of the property located at 7817 Woodley Avenue, we assumed a mortgage loan secured by this property. At the date of acquisition, the assumed loan had a principal balance of
$3.2 million and a fair value of $3.3 million resulting in an initial net debt premium of $0.1 million. The mortgage loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 4.14% per annum.
On October 12, 2021, in connection with the acquisition of the property located at 2515 Western Avenue, we assumed a mortgage loan secured by this property. At the date of acquisition, the assumed loan had a principal
balance and fair value of $13.2 million. The mortgage loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 4.50% per annum.
In connection with the acquisition of the Properties, on March 5, 2020, we assumed nine mortgage loans and on June 19, 2020, we assumed one additional mortgage loan, each secured by one of the Properties we acquired. At
the date of acquisition, the assumed loans had an aggregate principal balance of $47.5 million and an aggregate fair value of $48.8 million, resulting in an aggregate initial net debt premium of $1.2 million. The mortgage loans bear
interest at fixed interest rates ranging from 3.70% to 5.24% and have maturities ranging from 3.0 years to 8.3 years from the date assumed.
On November 17, 2020, in connection with the acquisition of the property located at 13943-13955 Balboa Boulevard, we assumed a mortgage loan secured by this property. At the date of acquisition, the assumed loan had a
principal balance of $15.7 million and a fair value of $16.5 million, resulting in an initial net debt premium of $0.8 million. The mortgage loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.93%.

Credit Facility
On February 13, 2020, we amended our $450 million credit agreement, that was scheduled to mature on February 14, 2021, by entering into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), which
initially provided for a $600.0 million senior unsecured credit facility, comprised of a $500.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) and a $100.0 million unsecured term loan facility (the “$100 Million Term Loan
Facility”) which was fully drawn under the prior credit agreement. On June 30, 2021, we exercised our option under the Credit Agreement to utilize the accordion feature to increase the authorized borrowing capacity of the Revolver by
$200.0 million from $500.0 million to $700.0 million. Subject to certain terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement, we may request additional lender commitments and increase the size of the Credit Agreement by an
additional $700.0 million, which may be comprised of additional revolving commitments under the Revolver, term loan tranches or any combination of the foregoing.
The Revolver is scheduled to mature on February 13, 2024, and has two six-month extension options available. The Revolver may be voluntarily prepaid in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty. The $100
Million Term Loan Facility, which was scheduled to mature on February 14, 2022, was fully repaid without premium or penalty on November 16, 2020, and the repaid amount may not be reborrowed.
As of December 31, 2021, interest on the Revolver is generally to be paid based upon, at our option, either (i) LIBOR plus an applicable margin that is based upon our investment grade ratings or (ii) the Base Rate (which is
defined as the highest of (a) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (b) the administrative agent’s prime rate or (c) the Eurodollar Rate plus 1.00%) plus an applicable margin that is based on our investment grade ratings. The margins for the
Revolver range from 0.725% to 1.40% per annum for LIBOR-based loans and 0.00% to 0.45% per annum for Base Rate-based loans, depending on our investment grade ratings.
In addition to the interest payable on amounts outstanding under the Revolver, we are required to pay an applicable facility fee, on each lender's commitment amount under the Revolver, regardless of usage. The applicable
facility fee ranges in amount from 0.125% to 0.300% per annum, depending on our investment grade ratings.
The Credit Agreement contains usual and customary events of default including defaults in the payment of principal, interest or fees, defaults in compliance with the covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement and other loan
documentation, cross-defaults to certain other indebtedness, and bankruptcy and other insolvency defaults. If an event of default occurs and is continuing under the Credit Agreement, the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding
loans, together with all accrued unpaid interest and other amounts owing in respect thereof, may be declared immediately due and payable.
On December 31, 2021, we did not have any borrowings outstanding under the Revolver, leaving $700.0 million available for future borrowings.

We were in compliance with all of our quarterly and annual debt covenants as of December 31, 2021.
6. Leases
Lessor – Operating Leases
We lease industrial space to tenants primarily under non-cancelable operating leases that generally contain provisions for minimum base rents plus reimbursement for certain operating expenses. Total minimum lease payments are
recognized in rental income on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease and estimated reimbursements from tenants for real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance and other recoverable operating expenses are
recognized in rental income in the period that the expenses are incurred.
For the year ended December 31, 2021, we recognized $436.3 million of rental income related to operating lease payments of which $360.2 million was for fixed lease payments and $76.1 million was for variable lease payments. For
the year ended December 31, 2020 we recognized $318.8 million of rental income related to operating lease payments of which $266.1 million was for fixed lease payments and $52.7 million was for variable lease payments.

The future minimum base rents in the table above excludes tenant reimbursements of operating expenses, amortization of adjustments for deferred rent receivables and the amortization of above/below-market lease intangibles.
Lessor – Sales-Type Lease
In June 2020, we executed a five-year lease for a 58,802 rentable square foot unit at the property located at 2722 Fairview Street (“Fairview”). The lease contained an option whereby the tenant could purchase the entire
116,575 rentable square foot property at a purchase price of $20.4 million, by executing its purchase option on or before December 10, 2020.
On September 9, 2020, the tenant exercised its option to purchase Fairview, which resulted in a change in lease classification from an operating lease to a sales-type lease. As a result of this change in classification, on
September 9, 2020, we derecognized the net book value of the property, recorded a sales-type lease receivable of $20.3 million (measured as the discounted present value of the fixed purchase option price), and recognized a $3.8
million gain on sale due to lease reclassification. On September 30, 2020, the sale of Fairview closed and we collected the lease receivable and recorded $0.6 million of selling costs/write-offs, for a total net gain on sale of $3.3 million.
The net proceeds from the sale of Fairview are included in net cash provided by operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.
Lessee
We lease office space as part of conducting our day-to-day business. As of December 31, 2021, our office space leases have remaining lease terms ranging from approximately three years to four years and some include options to
renew. These renewal terms can extend the lease term from three years to five years and are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise the option. We also have one ground lease for a parcel of land that
is adjacent to one of our properties and is used as a parking lot. This ground lease has a remaining lease term of approximately two years, with two additional ten-year options to renew, and monthly rent of $9,000 through expiration.
In November 2021, we executed a sublease agreement for one of our leased office spaces as a result of the implementation of a work from home flexibility program in 2021 based on the success of our virtual working
environment during the earlier part of the pandemic. The term of the sublease is for a period of three years and 9 months (expiring in September 2025) and has an annual lease payment of approximately $0.3 million per year. Upon
executing the sublease agreement, we reviewed the ROU asset and other assets associated with the original office space lease for recoverability and determined that the total carrying amount of these assets exceeded the undiscounted
cash flows generated by the sublease income over the lease term. Accordingly, the carrying value of these assets were written down to fair value and we recorded a $1.0 million impairment charge for the year ended December 31, 2021,
which is included in “Other expenses” in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, with a corresponding adjustment to “Other assets” in the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2021.
As of December 31, 2021, total ROU assets and lease liabilities were approximately $3.5 million and $5.0 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2020, total ROU assets and lease liabilities were approximately $5.6 million
and $6.4 million, respectively.

We are exposed to certain risks arising from both our business operations and economic conditions. We principally manage our exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of our core
business activities. We manage economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of our debt funding and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically,
we enter into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. Our
derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of our known or expected cash payments principally related to our borrowings.
Our objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, we primarily use interest rate swaps as part of our interest
rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for us making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional
amount. We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.
F-31
The change in fair value of derivatives designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges is initially recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) (“AOCI”) and is subsequently reclassified from AOCI into earnings
in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings.
The following table sets forth a summary of our interest rate swaps as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 (dollars in thousands). We record all derivative instruments on a gross basis in the consolidated balance sheets, and accordingly,
there are no offsetting amounts that net assets against liabilities.

(1) Includes amounts that are being amortized from AOCI into interest expense on a straight-line basis related to the T-Locks, $100M Swap and $225M Swaps which are discussed below.
Transactions
On July 13, 2021, we executed three 10-year treasury rate lock agreements with a combined notional amount of $150.0 million at a weighted average fixed interest rate of 1.38179% (the “T-Locks”), intended to designate as a
cash flow hedge against changes in interest rates on anticipated future fixed-rate unsecured borrowings. On August 9, 2021, we settled the T-Locks in connection with the issuance of the $400 Million Notes due 2031 for a payment of
$2.8 million, which is included in the balance of AOCI and is being amortized into interest expense on a straight-line basis over the 10-year term of the hedged transaction.
On August 11, 2021, in conjunction with the repayment of the $225 Million Term Loan Facility, we paid $1.3 million to terminate two interest rate swaps with a combined notional amount of $225.0 million and a maturity date
of January 14, 2022 (the “$225M Swaps”), that were used to hedge the monthly cash flows associated $225.0 million of LIBOR-based variable-rate debt, and which had an unrealized loss balance of $1.3 million in AOCI at the time of
termination. We are amortizing the loss on this transaction from AOCI into interest expense on a straight-line basis over the period beginning from the termination date of the $225M Swaps (August 9, 2021) through the original
maturity date of the $225M Swaps (January 14, 2022).
In November 2020, in conjunction with the repayment of the $100 Million Term Loan Facility, we paid $1.2 million to terminate an interest rate swap with a notional amount of $100.0 million and maturity date of August 14,
2021 (the “$100M Swap”), that was used to hedge the monthly cash flows associated with $100 million of LIBOR-based variable-rate debt, and which had an unrealized loss balance of $1.2 million in AOCI at the time of termination.
We amortized the loss on this transaction from AOCI into interest expense on a straight-line basis over the period beginning from the termination date of the $100M Swap (November 12, 2020) through the original maturity date of the
$100M Swap (August 14, 2021).
F-32
During the next twelve months, we estimate that an additional $3.9 million (including $0.3 million related to the settled T-Locks and the remaining $0.1 million related to the $225 Million Swaps) will be reclassified from
AOCI into earnings as an increase to interest expense.
Credit-risk-related Contingent Features
Certain of our agreements with our derivative counterparties contain a provision where if we default on any of our indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender
within a specified time period, then we could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations.
Certain of our agreements with our derivative counterparties contain provisions where if a merger or acquisition occurs that materially changes our creditworthiness in an adverse manner, we may be required to fully
collateralize our obligations under the derivative instrument.
8. Fair Value Measurements
ASC Topic 820: Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure (“ASC 820”) defines fair value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value. ASC 820 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an
entity-specific measurement. Therefore, a fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. As a basis for considering market participant
assumptions in fair value measurements, ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable
inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy).
Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are
observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted
prices), such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are typically based on an entity’s own assumptions, as there is little,
if any, related market activity. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value
measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires
judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
Recurring Measurements – Interest Rate Swaps
Currently, we use interest rate swap agreements to manage our interest rate risk. The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the
expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves.
To comply with the provisions of ASC 820, we incorporate credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value
measurements. In adjusting the fair value of our derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, we have considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds,
mutual puts, and guarantees.
Although we have determined that the majority of the inputs used to value our derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with our derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs,
such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by ourselves and our counterparties. However, as of December 31, 2021, we have assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation
adjustments on the overall valuation of our derivative positions and have determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its derivatives. As a result, we have determined that its derivative
valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Financial Instruments Disclosed at Fair Value
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, rents and other receivables, other assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities, and tenant security deposits approximate fair value because of their short-term
nature.
The fair value of our notes payable was estimated by calculating the present value of principal and interest payments, using discount rates that best reflect current market rates for financings with similar characteristics and credit
quality, and assuming each loan is outstanding through its respective contractual maturity date.

9. Related Party Transactions
Howard Schwimmer
We engage in transactions with Howard Schwimmer, our Co-Chief Executive Officer, earning management fees and leasing commissions from entities controlled individually by Mr. Schwimmer. Fees and commissions earned
from these entities are included in “Management, leasing and development services” in the consolidated statements of operations. We recorded $0.5 million, $0.4 million and $0.4 million during the years ended December 31, 2021,
2020 and 2019, respectively, in management, leasing and development services revenue.
10. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal
From time to time, we are party to various lawsuits, claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. We are not currently a party to any legal proceedings that we believe would reasonably be expected
to have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
F-34
Environmental
We generally will perform environmental site assessments at properties we are considering acquiring. After the acquisition of such properties, we continue to monitor the properties for the presence of hazardous or toxic
substances. From time to time, we acquire properties with known adverse environmental conditions. If at the time of acquisition, losses associated with environmental remediation obligations are probable and can be reasonably
estimated, we record a liability.
As of December 31, 2021, we are not aware of any environmental liabilities that would have a material impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, we cannot be sure that we
have identified all environmental liabilities at our properties, that all necessary remediation actions have been or will be undertaken at our properties or that we will be indemnified, in full or at all, in the event that such environmental
liabilities arise. Furthermore, we cannot assure you that future changes to environmental laws or regulations and their application will not give rise to loss contingencies for future environmental remediation.
Tenant and Construction Related Commitments
As of December 31, 2021, we had commitments of approximately $52.0 million for tenant improvement and construction work under the terms of leases with certain of our tenants and contractual agreements with our
construction vendors.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
We have deposited cash with financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000 per institution. Although we have deposits at institutions in excess of federally insured limits as
of December 31, 2021, we do not believe we are exposed to significant credit risk due to the financial position of the institutions in which those deposits are held.
Concentration of Properties in Southern California
As of December 31, 2021, all of our properties are located in the Southern California infill markets. The ability of the tenants to honor the terms of their respective leases is dependent upon the economic, regulatory and social
factors affecting the markets in which the tenants operate and other conditions, including the impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and related state and local government reactions.
In response to COVID-19, most municipalities in Southern California, including many municipalities in which we own properties, mandated a moratorium on all commercial evictions and gave tenants impacted by COVID-19
the unilateral right to defer rent while the emergency orders are in effect, with repayment generally within six to twelve months after the end of the local emergency. During 2021, many municipalities allowed their local orders to expire
or modified the orders to exclude some tenants (based on the tenant’s number of employees, being a publicly traded company or multinational company, or other characteristics). Most recently in Los Angeles County, where we operate
a significant portion of our portfolio, the county’s eviction restrictions and rent deferment rights expired on January 31, 2022, with respect to municipalities outside the City of Los Angeles, leaving a small number of remaining
municipalities, including the City of Los Angeles, where the restrictions will expire when the local emergency is lifted. During 2020, a limited number of our tenants took advantage of the relief provided by the local government
mandates authorizing deferral of rent, irrespective of such tenants’ actual ability to pay such rent. For details related to rent relief provided to tenants since the pandemic, see “Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”
under “—COVID-19 Lease Concessions.” The continued impact of the pandemic on our and our tenants’ businesses is largely dependent on efforts to stem the spread of COVID-19, including governmental efforts to encourage
vaccinations and overall vaccination rates in the areas in which we own properties.
Tenant Concentration
During the year ended December 31, 2021, no single tenant accounted for more than 5% of our total consolidated rental income.

Dividends on our Preferred Stock are cumulative and payable quarterly in arrears on or about the last day of March, June, September and December of each year. Our Preferred Stock has no stated maturity dates and is not
subject to mandatory redemption or any sinking funds. The holders of our Preferred Stock rank senior to the holders of our common stock with respect to dividend rights and rights upon the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of its affairs. The holders of our Preferred Stock generally have no voting rights except for limited voting rights if we fail to pay dividends for six or more quarterly dividend periods (whether or not consecutive). Upon the
occurrence of a specified change of control transaction, we may, at our option, redeem each series of Preferred Stock in whole or in part within 120 days after the change of control occurred, by paying $25.00 per share in cash, plus any
accrued and unpaid distributions through the date of redemption. If we do not exercise our right to redeem the Preferred Stock, upon the occurrence of a specified change of control transaction, the holders of our Preferred Stock have
the right to convert some or all of their shares into a number of the Company’s common shares equivalent to $25.00 plus accrued and unpaid dividends, divided by the average closing price per share of the Company’s common stock for
the 10 trading days preceding the date of the change of control, but not to exceed a certain capped number of shares of common stock per share of Preferred Stock, subject to certain adjustments.
Redemption of Series A Preferred Stock
On August 16, 2021 (the “Redemption Date”), we redeemed all 3,600,000 shares of our 5.875% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”). The redemption price for the Series A Preferred
Stock was equal to $25.00 per share, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends on such shares up to but not including the Redemption Date, in an amount equal to $0.183594 per share, for a total payment of $25.183594 per share, or $90.7
million. In connection with the redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock on August 16, 2021, we incurred an associated non-cash charge of $3.3 million as a reduction to net income available to common stockholders for the related
original issuance costs.
Common Stock
May 2021 Forward Equity Offering
On May 24, 2021, we entered into forward equity sale agreements with certain financial institutions acting as forward purchasers in connection with an underwritten public offering of 9,000,000 shares of common stock at an
initial forward sale price of $55.29 per share (the “May 2021 Forward Sale Agreements”), pursuant to which, the forward purchasers borrowed and sold an aggregate of 9,000,000 shares of common stock in the offering. We did not
initially receive any proceeds from the sale of common shares by the forward purchasers at the time of the offering.
In June 2021, we partially settled the May 2021 Forward Sale Agreements by issuing 1,809,526 shares of common stock in exchange for net proceeds of $100.0 million. The net proceeds were calculated based on the net
forward sale price on the settlement date of $55.26 per share.
In September 2021, we settled the remaining shares under the May 2021 Forward Sale Agreements by issuing 7,190,474 shares of our common stock in exchange for net proceeds of $395.0 million. The net proceeds were
calculated based on the net forward sale price on the settlement date of $54.93.
F-36
September 2021 Offering
In September 2021, we completed an underwritten public offering of 9,600,000 shares of common stock in which we (i) issued an aggregate of 3,100,000 shares of common stock to the underwriters at a purchase price of
$58.65 per share for proceeds of $181.8 million, and (ii) entered into forward equity sale agreements with certain financial institutions acting as forward purchasers for 6,500,000 shares of common stock at an initial forward sale price
of $58.65 per share (the “September 2021 Forward Sale Agreements”), pursuant to which the forward purchasers borrowed and sold an aggregate of 6,500,000 shares of common stock in the offering. We did not receive any proceeds
from the sale of common shares by the forward purchasers at the time of the offering.
In December 2021, we fully settled the 6,500,000 shares outstanding under the forward equity sale agreements from our September 2021 Offerings for total net proceeds of approximately $379.1 million.
2020 Offerings
During the second quarter of 2020, we completed an underwritten public offering of 7,187,500 shares of our common stock, including the underwriters’ exercise in full of their option to purchase 937,500 shares of our common
stock, at a price to the underwriters of $39.67 per share, for net proceeds of approximately $285.0 million after deducting offering costs. We contributed the net proceeds of the offering to our Operating Partnership in exchange for
7,187,500 common units of partnership interests in the Operating Partnership.
In December 2020, we completed an underwritten public offering of 6,900,000 shares of our common stock, including the underwriters’ exercise in full of their option to purchase 900,000 shares of our common stock, at a
price to the underwriters of $47.15 per share, for net proceeds of approximately $325.0 million, after deducting offering costs. We contributed the net proceeds of the offering to our Operating Partnership in exchange for 6,900,000
common units of partnership interests in the Operating Partnership.
ATM Program
On November 9, 2020, we established an at-the-market equity offering program pursuant to which we were able to sell from time to time shares of our common stock having an aggregate sales price of up to $750.0 million (the
“2020 ATM Program”). The 2020 ATM Program replaced our previous $550.0 million at-the-market equity offering program which was established on June 13, 2019 (the “2019 ATM Program”). Under the 2019 ATM Program, we had
offered and sold shares of our common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of $296.5 million through November 9, 2020. In addition, we previously established a $450.0 million at-the-market equity offering program on
February 19, 2019, under which substantially all available shares of common stock were sold prior to establishing the 2019 ATM Program.
In connection with the 2020 ATM Program, we were able to sale shares of our common stock directly through sales agents as well as enter into forward equity sale agreements with certain financial institutions acting as
forward purchasers whereby, at our discretion, the forward purchasers borrowed and sold shares of our common stock under our 2020 ATM Program. The use of a forward equity sale agreement allows us to lock in a share price on the
sale of shares of our common stock at the time the agreement is executed but defer settling the forward equity sale agreements and receiving the proceeds from the sale of shares until a later date.
During the year ended December 31, 2021, we directly sold a total of 3,201,560 shares of our common stock under the 2020 ATM Program at a weighted average price of $52.27 per share, for gross proceeds of $167.3 million,
and net proceeds of $165.2 million, after deducting the sales agents’ fees. During the year ended December 31, 2020, we sold a total of 3,165,661 shares of our common stock under our various at-the-market equity offering programs, at
a weighted average price of $39.96 per share, for gross proceeds of $126.5 million, and net proceeds of $124.7 million, after deducting the sales agents’ fee. During the year ended December 31, 2019, we sold a total of 16,817,930 of
our common stock under our various at-the-market equity offering programs, at a weighted average price of $38.61 per share, for gross proceeds of $649.3 million, and net proceeds of $639.6 million, after deducting the sales agents’
fee.
During the year ended December 31, 2021, we also entered into forward equity sale agreements with certain financial institutions acting as forward purchasers under the 2020 ATM Program with respect to 8,589,572 shares of
our common stock at a weighted average initial forward sale price of $62.87 per share. We did not initially receive any proceeds from the sale of common shares by the forward purchasers at the time we entered into forward equity sale
agreements.
During the year ended December 31, 2021, we physically settled a portion of the forward equity sale agreements related to the 2020 ATM Program by issuing 6,683,216 shares of common stock in exchange for net proceeds of
$405.3 million. The net proceeds were calculated based on a weighted average net forward sale price at the time of settlement of $60.65 per share. As of
F-37
December 31, 2021, we had 1,906,356 shares of common stock, or approximately $134.0 million of forward net proceeds remaining for settlement to occur by November 15, 2022, based on net forward sales price of $70.27 per share.
Subsequent to December 31, 2021, we established a new at-the-market equity offering program pursuant to which we are able to sell from time to time shares of our common stock having an aggregate sales price of up to
$750.0 million (the “2022 ATM Program”) directly through sales agents or by entering into forward equity sale agreements with certain financial institutions acting as forward purchasers. In connection with the establishment of the
2022 ATM Program, we terminated the 2020 ATM Program, under which we had offered and sold shares of our common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of $743.9 million through January 13, 2022. As of the date of the
Annual Report on Form 10-K, we have not sold any share of our common stock under the 2022 ATM Program. Future sales, if any, will depend on a variety of factors, including among others, market conditions, the trading price of our
common stock, determinations by us of the appropriate sources of funding for us and potential uses of funding available to us.

Dividends
Earnings and profits, which determine the taxability of dividends to stockholders, may differ from income reported for financial reporting purposes due to the differences for federal income tax purposes in the treatment of loss
on extinguishment of debt, revenue recognition and compensation expense and in the basis of depreciable assets and estimated useful lives used to compute depreciation expense.

12. Noncontrolling Interests
Noncontrolling interests relate to interests in the Operating Partnership, represented by common units of partnership interests in the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”), fully-vested LTIP units, fully-vested performance units
and Series 1 CPOP Units and Series 2 CPOP Units, as described below, that are not owned by us.
Operating Partnership Units
As of December 31, 2021, noncontrolling interests included 5,022,622 OP Units, 633,856 fully-vested LTIP units and 744,899 fully-vested performance units which represented approximately 3.8% of our Operating
Partnership. OP Units and shares of our common stock have essentially the same economic characteristics, as they share equally in the total net income or loss distributions of our Operating Partnership. Investors who own OP Units
have the right to cause our Operating Partnership to redeem any or all of their units in our Operating Partnership for an amount of cash per unit equal to the then current market value of one share of common stock, or, at our election,
shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis. See “Note 13 – Incentive Award Plan” for a description of LTIP units and Performance Units.
Activity
As previously described in “Note 3 – Investments in Real Estate,” on March 5, 2020, we acquired ten industrial properties and on June 19, 2020, we acquired one additional property, from a group of sellers that were not
affiliated with the Company for an aggregate purchase price of $214.2 million. As partial consideration for the acquisition of the Properties, we issued the Sellers 1,406,170 OP Units, valued at $67.5 million.
On November 17, 2020, we acquired the property located at 13943-13955 Balboa Boulevard for a purchase price of $45.3 million. As partial consideration for the property, we issued the seller 592,186 OP Units valued at $27.8
million.
On December 31, 2020, we acquired a portfolio of four properties for an aggregate purchase price of $84.0 million. As consideration for the portfolio, we issued the seller 1,800,000 OP Units.
During the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, we redeemed 521,199, 296,313 and 96,060 OP Units, respectively, in exchange for issuing to the holders of the OP Units an equal number of shares of our common
stock, resulting in
F-39
the reclassification of $17.5 million, $7.7 million, and $0.7 million, respectively, from noncontrolling interests to total stockholders’ equity.
Preferred Units
Series 2 CPOP Units
On March 5, 2020, as partial consideration for the acquisition of the Properties, we issued the Sellers 906,374 newly issued 4.00% cumulative redeemable convertible preferred units of partnership interest in the Operating
Partnership (the “Series 2 CPOP Units”), valued at $40.8 million.
Holders of Series 2 CPOP Units, when and as authorized by the Company as general partner of the Operating Partnership, are entitled to cumulative cash distributions at the rate of 4.00% per annum of the $45.00 per unit
liquidation preference, payable quarterly in arrears on or about the last day of March, June, September and December of each year, beginning on March 31, 2020. The holders of Series 2 CPOP Units are entitled to receive the
liquidation preference, which is $45.00 per unit or approximately $40.8 million in the aggregate for all of the Series 2 CPOP Units, before the holders of OP Units are entitled to receive distributions in the event of any voluntary or
involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the affairs of the Operating Partnership.
Series 1 CPOP Units
On April 10, 2019, we acquired the property located at 1515 East 15th Street for a purchase price of $28.1 million. In consideration for the property, we issued the seller 593,960 newly issued 4.43937% cumulative redeemable
convertible preferred units of partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (“Series 1 CPOP Units”), valued at $27.4 million, plus the payment of certain closing costs, including $0.7 million of closing costs typically attributable to
the seller.
Holders of Series 1 CPOP Units, when and as authorized by the Company as general partner of the Operating Partnership, are entitled to cumulative cash distributions at the rate of 4.43937% per annum of the $45.50952 per unit
liquidation preference, payable quarterly in arrears on or about the last day of March, June, September and December of each year, beginning on June 28, 2019. The holders of Series 1 CPOP Units are entitled to receive the liquidation
preference, which is $45.50952 per unit or approximately $27.0 million in the aggregate for all of the Series 1 CPOP Units, before the holders of OP Units in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-
up of the affairs of the Operating Partnership.
Features of Series 1 and Series 2 CPOP Units
The Series 1 CPOP Units and the Series 2 CPOP Units (together, the “CPOP Units”) are convertible (i) at the option of the holder anytime from time to time (the “Holder Conversion Right”), or (ii) at the option of the
Operating Partnership, at any time on or after April 10, 2024 for the Series 1 CPOP Unit, or at any time on or after March 5, 2025, for the Series 2 CPOP Unit (the “Company Conversion Right”), in each case, into OP Units on a one-
for-one basis per Series 1 CPOP Unit, and into 0.7722 OP Units per Series 2 CPOP Unit. As noted above, investors who own OP Units have the right to cause our Operating Partnership to redeem any or all of their units in our
Operating Partnership for an amount of cash per unit equal to the then current market value of one share of common stock, or, at our election, shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis (the “Subsequent Redemption Right”).
The CPOP Units rank senior to the Operating Partnership’s OP Units, on parity with the Operating Partnership’s 5.875% series B cumulative redeemable preferred units and 5.625% series C cumulative redeemable preferred units and
with any future class or series of partnership interest of the Operating Partnership expressly designated as ranking on parity with the CPOP Units, and junior to any other class or series of partnership interest of the Operating Partnership
expressly designated as ranking senior to the CPOP Units.
Pursuant to relevant accounting guidance, we analyzed the CPOP Units for any embedded derivatives that should be bifurcated and accounted for separately and also considered the conditions that would require classification of the
CPOP Units in temporary equity versus permanent equity. In carrying out our analyses, we evaluated the key features of the CPOP Units including the right to discretionary distributions, the Holder Conversion Right, the Company
Conversion Right and the Subsequent Redemption Right to determine whether we control the actions or events necessary to issue the maximum number of shares that could be required to be delivered under the share settlement if the
CPOP Units are converted into shares of our common stock (subsequent to conversion into OP Units). Based on the results of our analyses, we concluded that (i) none of the embedded features of the CPOP Units require bifurcation and
separate accounting, and (ii) the CPOP Units met the criteria to be classified within equity, and accordingly are presented as noncontrolling interests within permanent equity in the consolidated balance sheets.

On June 17, 2021, our stockholders approved the Second Amended and Restated Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc. and Rexford Industrial Realty, L.P. 2013 Incentive Award Plan (the “Plan”), superseding and replacing our prior
incentive award plan. Pursuant to the Plan, we may make grants of restricted stock, LTIP units of partnership interest in our Operating Partnership (“LTIP units”), performance units in our Operating Partnership (“Performance Units”),
dividend equivalents and other stock based and cash awards to our non-employee directors, employees and consultants.
The Plan is administered by our board of directors with respect to awards to non-employee directors and by our compensation committee with respect to other participants, each of which may delegate its duties and
responsibilities to committees of our directors and/or officers (collectively the “plan administrator”), subject to certain limitations. The plan administrator sets the terms and conditions of all awards under the Plan, including any vesting
and vesting acceleration conditions.
As of December 31, 2021, a total of 2,650,950 shares of common stock, LTIP units, Performance Units and other stock based awards remain available for issuance under the Plan. Shares and units granted under the Plan may be
authorized but unissued shares or 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 or units subject to such award will
generally be available for future awards.
LTIP Units and Performance Units
LTIP units and Performance Units are each a class of limited partnership units in the Operating Partnership. Initially, LTIP units and Performance Units do not have full parity with OP Units with respect to liquidating
distributions. However, upon the occurrence of certain events more fully described in the Operating Partnership’s partnership agreement (“book-up events”), the LTIP units and Performance Units can over time achieve full parity with
OP Units for all purposes. If such parity is reached, vested LTIP units and vested Performance Units may be converted into an equal number of OP Units, and, upon conversion, enjoy all rights of OP Units. LTIP units, whether vested or
not, receive the same quarterly per-unit distributions as OP Units, which equal the per-share distributions on shares of our common stock. Performance Units that have not vested receive a quarterly per-unit distribution equal to 10% of
the per-unit distribution paid on OP Units.
The compensation committee grants awards to the Company’s named executive officers (the “NEOs”) on an annual basis in the form of LTIP units and Performance units, typically in December of each year. In December of
2021, 2020 and 2019, the compensation committee granted the NEOs a combined 93,030, 121,112, and 120,243 LTIP units that are subject to time-based vesting conditions (each an annual “LTIP Award”) and a combined 366,004,
476,915, and 294,994 Performance Units that are partially subject to market-based vesting conditions and partially subject to performance-based vesting conditions (each an annual “Performance Award”).
2021, 2020 and 2019 LTIP Unit Awards
Each of the 2021, 2020 and 2019 LTIP Awards are scheduled to vest one-third in equal installments on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date. Each award is subject to each executive’s continued
employment through the applicable vesting date, and subject to earlier vesting upon certain termination of employment or a change in control event, as described in the award agreements. Compensation expense is recognized using the
accelerated expense attribution method, with each vesting tranche valued as a separate award. The total grant date fair value of each annual LTIP award is based on the Company’s most recent closing stock price preceding the grant and
the application of a discount for post-vesting restrictions and uncertainty regarding the occurrence and timing of book-up events. The following table summarizes these fair valuation assumptions and the grant date fair value of each
annual LTIP award:

2021, 2020 and 2019 Performance Unit Awards
Each of the 2021, 2020 and 2019 Performance Awards are comprised of a number of units designated as base units and a number of units designated as distribution equivalents, which are further described below:
•
•
•
Absolute TSR Base Units - base units that will vest based on varying levels of the Company’s total shareholder return (“TSR”) over the three-year performance period of an award. TSR is measured as the appreciation in the
price per share of a company’s common stock plus dividends paid during the three-year performance period, assuming the reinvestment in common stock of all dividends paid during the performance period.
Relative TSR Base Units - base units that will vest based on the Company’s TSR as compared to the TSR percentage of a selected peer group of companies over the three-year performance period.
FFO Per-Share Base Units - base units that will vest based on the Company’s FFO per share growth over the three-year performance period.
• Distribution Equivalent Units - Performance Units that have not vested will receive 10% of the distributions paid on OP units. The remaining 90% of the distributions will accrue (assuming the reinvestment in common stock of
these distributions) during the three-year performance period and a portion will be paid out as distribution equivalent units based upon the number of base units that ultimately vest.
The following table summarizes the total number of base units and distribution equivalent units awarded to the executives for each of the Performance Awards:

Dec 31, 2022
(1) The performance period for the 2021 Market Performance Award is December 23, 2021 through December 22, 2024, and the performance period for the 2021 FFO Per-Share Award is January 1, 2022 through December 31,
2024.
(2) The performance period for the 2020 Market Performance Award is December 22, 2020 through December 21, 2023, and the performance period for the 2020 FFO Per-Share Award is January 1, 2021 through December 31,
2023.
If the Company’s TSR percentage, peer group relative performance or FFO per share growth falls between the levels specified in the tables above, the percentage of Absolute TSR Base Units, Relative TSR Base Units and FFO
Per-Share Base Units that vest will be determined using straight-line interpolation between such levels.
Fair Value of Awards With Market-Based Vesting Conditions
The grant date fair value of each of the 2021, 2020 and 2019 Market Performance Awards is based on the sum of the following: (1) the present value of the expected payoff to the vested absolute and relative base units, (2) the present
value of the 10% portion of the distribution expected to be paid during the three-year performance period, and (3) the present value of the distribution equivalent units expected to be awarded at the end of the three-year performance
period. The grant date fair value of each of these awards was measured using a Monte Carlo simulation pricing model, which uses 100,000 trial simulations, to estimate the probability that the market conditions, TSR on both an
absolute and relative basis, will be achieved over the three-year performance period.
The following table summarizes the assumptions we used in the Monte Carlo simulations and the grant date fair value of the awards with market-based vesting conditions.

(1) For the 2021 Market Performance Award, the median and average expected share price volatilities for the peer group companies are 45.0% and 47.9%, respectively. For the 2020 Market Performance Award, the median and average
expected share price volatilities for the peer group companies are 45.0% and 47.4%, respectively. For the 2019 Market Performance Award, the median and average expected share price volatilities for the peer group companies are
21.0% and 24.4%, respectively.
The expected share price volatilities are based on a mix of the historical and implied volatilities of the Company and the peer group companies. The expected dividend yield is based on our average historical dividend yield and
our dividend yield as of the valuation date for each award. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury note yields matching the three-year time period of the performance period.
Compensation cost for the awards with market-based vesting conditions is recognized ratably over the requisite service period, regardless of whether the TSR performance levels are achieved and any awards ultimately vest.
Compensation expense will only be reversed if the holder of an award with market-based vesting conditions forfeits the award by leaving the employment of the Company prior to vesting.
Fair Value of Awards with Performance-Based Vesting Conditions
The grant date fair value of the 2021 FFO Per-Share Award is $2.9 million, which is based on the Company’s closing stock price on the grant date ($77.50 on December 23, 2021) and the achievement of FFO per-share performance
at the target level. The grant date fair value of the 2020 FFO Per-Share Award is $2.4 million, which is based on the Company’s closing stock price on the grant date ($48.58 on December 22, 2020) and the achievement of FFO per-
share performance at the target level. The grant date fair value of the 2019 FFO Per-Share Award is $2.0 million, which is based on the Company’s closing stock price preceding the grant date ($45.74 on December 16, 2019) and the
achievement of FFO per-share performance at the target level.
Compensation cost for the 2021, 2020 and 2019 FFO Per-Share Awards will reflect the number of units that are expected to vest based on the probable outcome of the performance condition and will be adjusted to reflect those units
that ultimately vest at the end of the three-year performance period.
2018, 2017 and 2016 Performance Award Vestings
On December 14, 2021, the three-year performance period for the 2018 performance award ended and it was determined that both the Company’s TSR percentage and peer group relative performance exceeded the maximum
level. Based on these results, the compensation committee certified that 170,413 Performance Units were earned and vested.
On December 14, 2020, the three-year performance period for the 2017 performance award ended and it was determined that both the Company’s TSR percentage and peer group relative performance exceeded the maximum
level. Based on these results, the compensation committee certified that 184,502 Performance Units were earned and vested.
On December 28, 2019, the three-year performance period for the 2016 performance award ended and it was determined that both the Company’s TSR percentage and peer group relative performance exceeded the maximum
level. Based on these results, the compensation committee certified that 195,628 vested Performance Units were earned and vested.
Restricted Common Stock
The compensation committee has periodically awarded grants of restricted common stock to various employees of the Company typically other than NEOs, for the purpose of attracting or retaining the services of these key
individuals. These grants typically vest in four equal, annual installments on each of the first four anniversaries of the date of grant, subject to the employee’s continued service. Shares of our restricted common stock are participating
securities and have full voting rights and nonforfeitable rights to dividends. During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, we granted 120,734 and 107,648 shares, respectively, of restricted common stock to non-executive
employees. The grant date fair value of these awards was $5.6 million and $5.0 million based on the closing share price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant, which ranged from $48.14 and $62.19 per share and $39.71
to $50.18 per share for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. On September 1, 2020, we granted Ms. Laura Clark 3,497 shares of restricted common stock as a sign-on incentive award, which vests in three equal
annual installments on each of the first three anniversaries. The grant date fair value of this award was approximately $167,000 based on the Company’s closing share price of $47.65 on the date of grant.
In accordance with the Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc. Non-Employee Director Compensation Program, each year on the date of the annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders, we grant shares of restricted common stock to
each of our non-employee directors who are re-elected for another year of service. These awards vest on the earlier of (i) the date of the annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders next following the grant date and (ii) the first
anniversary of the grant date, subject to each non-employee director’s continued service. During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, each of our non-employee
F-44
directors were granted 1,873 and 2,507 shares of restricted common stock with a grant date fair value of $109,964 and $100,000 based on the $58.71 and $39.88 closing share price, respectively, of the Company’s common stock on the
date of grant.

In April 2021, the compensation committee chose to provide Messrs. Schwimmer and Frankel’s 2021 annual bonuses partly in cash and partly in LTIP units. Accordingly, on January 18, 2022, at the same time that annual
bonuses were paid to executives, Messrs. Schwimmer and Frankel were each granted 12,824 LTIP Units that were fully vested on the grant date. Share-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2021, includes $1.9
million for the portion of Messrs. Schwimmer and Frankel’s 2021 accrued bonus that was settled with these fully-vested LTIP Units.
In August 2020, the compensation committee chose to provide Messrs. Schwimmer and Frankel’s 2020 annual bonuses partly in cash and partly in LTIP units. Accordingly, on January 27, 2021, at the same time that annual bonuses
were paid to executives, Messrs. Schwimmer and Frankel were each granted 15,288 LTIP Units that were fully vested on the grant date. Share-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2020, includes $1.5 million
for the portion of Messrs. Schwimmer and Frankel’s 2020 accrued bonus that was settled with these fully-vested LTIP Units.

In April 2019, the compensation committee chose to provide Messrs. Schwimmer and Frankel’s 2019 annual bonuses partly in cash and partly in LTIP units. Accordingly, on February 4, 2020, at the same time that annual
bonuses were paid to executives, Messrs. Schwimmer and Frankel were each granted 18,146 LTIP Units that were fully vested on the grant date. Share-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2019, includes $1.8
million for the portion of Messrs. Schwimmer and Frankel’s 2019 accrued bonus that was settled with these fully-vested LTIP Units.
As of December 31, 2021, total unrecognized compensation cost related to all unvested share-based awards was $41.4 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average remaining period of 28 months.

Unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends, whether paid or unpaid, are accounted for as participating securities. As such, unvested shares of restricted stock, unvested LTIP Units and
unvested Performance Units are considered participating securities. Participating securities are included in the computation of basic EPS pursuant to the two-class method. The two-class method determines EPS for each class of
common stock and each participating security according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and their respective participation rights in undistributed earnings. Participating securities are also included in the computation of diluted
EPS using the more dilutive of the two-class method or treasury stock method for unvested shares of restricted stock and LTIP Units, and by determining if certain market conditions have been met at the reporting date for unvested
Performance Units.
The effect of including unvested shares of restricted stock and unvested LTIP Units using the treasury stock method was excluded from our calculation of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding – diluted, as their
inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.
Performance Units, which are subject to vesting based on the Company achieving certain TSR levels and FFO per share growth over a three-year performance period, are included as contingently issuable shares in the calculation of
diluted EPS when TSR and/or FFO per share growth has been achieved at or above the threshold levels specified in the award agreements, assuming the reporting period is the end of the performance period, and the effect is dilutive.
We also consider the effect of other potentially dilutive securities, including the CPOP Units and OP Units, which may be redeemed for shares of our common stock under certain circumstances, and include them in our computation
of diluted EPS when their inclusion is dilutive. These units were not dilutive for the periods presented above.

Note: As of December 31, 2021, the aggregate cost for federal income tax purposes of investments in real estate was approximately $6.7 billion.
F-59
(1) Costs capitalized subsequent to acquisition are net of the write-off of fully depreciated assets and include construction in progress.
(2) During 2009, we recorded impairment charges totaling $19.6 million in continuing operations (of which $9.5 million relates to properties still owned by us) to write down our investments in real estate to fair value. Of the $9.5
million, $2.4 million is included as a reduction of “Land” in the table above, with the remaining $2.1 million included as a reduction of “Buildings and Improvements”.
(3) The depreciable life for buildings and improvements ranges from 10-30 years for buildings, 5-20 years for site improvements, and the shorter of the estimated useful life or respective lease term for tenant improvements.
(4) These six properties secure a term loan that had a balance of $58.1 million as of December 31, 2021.
(5) Safari Business Park consists of 16 buildings with the following addresses: 1845, 1885, 1901-1957 and 2037-2077 Vineyard Avenue; 1906-1946 and 2048-2058 Cedar Street; 1900-1956, 1901-1907, 1911-1951, 2010-2020 and
2030-2071 Lynx Place; 1810, 1840-1898, 1910-1960 and 2030-2050 Carlos Avenue; 2010-2057 and 2060-2084 Francis Street.

(1) On July 3, 2019, we acquired the fee title to the parcel of land located at 3340 North San Fernando Road in Los Angeles, California for a contract price of $3.0 million. Prior to the acquisition, we leased the parcel of land from the
seller under a long-term ground lease. The $0.1 million adjustment to the carrying value of the land is the difference between the purchase price of the land parcel and the carrying amount of the ground lease liability immediately
before the acquisition.
