Equity LifeStyle Properties, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 – Organization and Basis of Presentation
Equity LifeStyle Properties, Inc. (“ELS”), a Maryland corporation, together with MHC Operating Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”) and its other consolidated subsidiaries (the “Subsidiaries”), are referred to herein as “we,” “us,” and “our”. We are a fully integrated owner of lifestyle-oriented properties (“Properties”) consisting of property operations and home sales and rental operations primarily within manufactured home (“MH”) and recreational vehicle (“RV”) communities and marinas. We provide our customers the opportunity to place manufactured homes and cottages, RVs and/or boats on our Properties either on a long-term or short-term basis. Our customers may lease individual developed areas (“Sites”) or enter into right-to-use contracts, also known as membership subscriptions, which provide them access to specific Properties for limited stays.
Our Properties are owned primarily by the Operating Partnership and managed internally by affiliates of the Operating Partnership. ELS is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, has exclusive responsibility and discretion in management and control of the Operating Partnership and held a 95.3% interest as of March 31, 2024. As the general partner with control, ELS is the primary beneficiary of, and therefore consolidates, the Operating Partnership.
Equity method of accounting is applied to entities in which ELS does not have a controlling interest or for variable interest entities in which ELS is not considered the primary beneficiary, but with respect to which it can exercise significant influence over operations and major decisions. Our exposure to losses associated with unconsolidated joint ventures is primarily limited to the carrying value of these investments. Accordingly, distributions from a joint venture in excess of our carrying value are recognized in earnings.
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and regulations for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. All adjustments to the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are of a normal, recurring nature and, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of results for these interim periods. Revenues and expenses are subject to seasonal fluctuations and accordingly, quarterly interim results may not be indicative of full year results. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified on our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements to conform with current year presentation.
Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Revenue Recognition
Our revenue streams are predominantly derived from customers renting our Sites or entering into membership subscriptions. Leases with customers renting our Sites are accounted for as operating leases. The rental income associated with these leases is accounted for in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842, Leases, and is recognized over the term of the respective lease or the length of a customer’s stay. MH Sites are generally leased on an annual basis to residents who own or lease factory-built homes, including manufactured homes. RV and marina Sites are leased to those who generally have an RV, factory-built cottage, boat or other unit placed on the site, including those customers renting marina dry storage slips. Annual Sites are leased on an annual basis, including those Northern Properties that are open for the summer season. Seasonal Sites are leased to customers generally for one to six months. Transient Sites are leased to customers on a short-term basis. We do not separate expenses reimbursed by our customers (“utility recoveries”) from the associated rental income as we meet the practical expedient criteria of ASC 842, Leases to combine the lease and non-lease components. We assessed the criteria and concluded that the timing and pattern of transfer for rental income and the associated utility recoveries are the same and, as our leases qualify as operating leases, we account for and present rental income and utility recoveries as a single component under Rental income in our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. In addition, customers may lease homes that are located in our communities. These leases are accounted for as operating leases. Rental income derived from customers leasing homes is also accounted for in accordance with ASC 842, Leases and is recognized over the term of the respective lease. The allowance for credit losses related to the collectability of lease receivables is presented as a reduction to Rental income. Lease receivables are presented within Other assets, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are net of an allowance for credit losses. The estimate for credit losses is a result of our ongoing assessments and evaluations of collectability, including historical loss experience, current market conditions and future expectations in forecasting credit losses.

Equity LifeStyle Properties, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Annual membership subscriptions and membership upgrade sales are accounted for in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Membership subscriptions provide our customers access to specific Properties for limited stays at a specified group of Properties. Payments are deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the one-year period during which access to Sites at certain Properties is provided. Membership subscription receivables are presented within Other assets, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are net of an allowance for credit losses. Membership upgrades grant certain additional access rights to the customer and require non-refundable upfront payments. The non-refundable upfront payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over 20 years. Financed upgrade sales (also known as contract receivables) are presented within Notes receivable, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are net of an allowance for credit losses.
Revenue from home sales is recognized when the earnings process is complete. The earnings process is complete when the home has been delivered, the purchaser has accepted the home and title has transferred. We have a limited program under which we purchase loans made by an unaffiliated lender to homebuyers at our Properties. Financed home sales (also known as chattel loans) are presented within Notes receivable, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are net of an allowance for credit losses.
(b) Restricted Cash
As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, restricted cash consisted of $32.2 million and $25.7 million, respectively, primarily related to cash reserved for customer deposits and escrows for insurance and real estate taxes.
(c) Insurance Recoveries
We carry comprehensive insurance coverage for losses resulting from property damage and environmental liability and business interruption claims on all of our properties. We record the estimated amount of expected insurance proceeds for property damage, clean-up costs and other losses incurred as an asset (typically a receivable from our insurance carriers) and income up to the amount of the losses incurred when receipt of insurance proceeds is deemed probable. Any amount of insurance recovery in excess of the losses incurred and any amount of insurance recovery related to business interruption are considered a gain contingency and will be recognized in the period in which the insurance proceeds are received. During the quarter ended March 31, 2024, we recognized approximately $0.5 million of expense related to debris removal and cleanup related to Hurricane Ian, and we recorded an offsetting insurance recovery revenue accrual of $0.5 million to offset the expenses incurred during the quarter. We also recorded $14.8 million of insurance recovery revenue for reimbursement of capital expenditures related to Hurricane Ian. The debris and cleanup costs and offsetting recovery accrual and reimbursement of capital expenditures are reflected in Casualty-related charges/(recoveries), net on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.
(d) New Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): I mprovements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”), which aims to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The amendments in ASU 2023-07 do not change how a public entity identifies its operating segments, aggregates those operating segments, or applies the quantitative thresholds to determine its reportable segments. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-07 on our consolidated financial statements.
In March 2024, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) adopted final rules under SEC Release No. 33-11275, The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors, that requires registrants to provide climate-related disclosures in their annual reports and registration statements. On April 4, 2024, the SEC voluntarily stayed implementation of the final rule pending the completion of judicial review. We are currently evaluating the impact of the rule on our disclosures.
Note 3 – Leases
Lessor
The leases entered into between a customer and us for rental of a Site are renewable upon the consent of both parties or, in some instances, as provided by statute. Long-term leases that are non-cancelable by the tenants are in effect at certain Properties. Rental rate increases at these Properties are primarily a function of increases in the Consumer Price Index, taking

Lessee
We lease land under non-cancelable operating leases at 10 Properties expiring on various dates between 2028 and 2054. The majority of the leases have terms requiring fixed payments plus additional rents based on a percentage of gross revenues at those Properties. We also have other operating leases, primarily office space, expiring at various dates through 2033. For the quarters ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, total operating lease payments were $1.6 million and $1.5 million, respectively.
The following table summarizes our minimum future rental payments, excluding variable costs, which are discounted by our incremental borrowing rate to calculate the lease liability for our operating leases as of March 31, 2024:

Approximately $0.6 million and $0.3 million of the distributions made to us exceeded our basis in our unconsolidated joint ventures for the quarters ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and as such, were recorded as income from unconsolidated joint ventures.
Note 7 – Borrowing Arrangements
Mortgage Notes Payable
Our mortgage notes payable are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The following table presents the fair value of our mortgage notes payable:

|  | As of March 31, 2024 |  | As of December 31, 2023
(amounts in thousands) |  | Fair Value |  | Carrying Value |  | Fair Value |  | Carrying Value
Mortgage notes payable, excluding deferred financing costs |  | $ | 2,412,142 |  |  | $ | 3,001,219 |  |  | $ | 2,425,384 |  |  | $ | 3,017,149 |

The weighted average interest rate on our outstanding mortgage indebtedness, including the impact of loan cost amortization on mortgage indebtedness, as of March 31, 2024, was approximately 3.9% per annum. The debt bears interest at stated rates ranging from 2.4% to 5.1% per annum and matures on various dates ranging from 2025 to 2041. The debt encumbered a total of 120 of our Properties as of both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, and the gross carrying value of such Properties was approximately $3,208.4 million and $3,194.1 million, as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Unsecured Debt
We previously entered into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“Credit Agreement”), pursuant to which we have access to a $500.0 million line of credit (“LOC”) and a $300.0 million senior unsecured term loan (the “$300 million Term Loan”). We have the option to increase the borrowing capacity of the LOC by $200.0 million, subject to certain conditions. The LOC bears interest at a rate of SOFR plus 0.10% plus 1.25% to 1.65% and requires an annual facility fee of 0.20% to 0.35% and matures on April 18, 2025. The $300 million Term Loan has an interest rate of SOFR plus 0.10% plus 1.40% to 1.95% per annum. For both the LOC and the $300 million Term Loan, the spread over SOFR is variable based on leverage throughout the respective loan terms.

Note 7 – Borrowing Arrangements (continued)
During the year ended December 31, 2022, we entered into a $200.0 million senior unsecured term loan agreement (the “200.0 million Term Loan”). The maturity date is January 21, 2027, with an interest rate of SOFR plus 0.10% plus 1.20% to 1.70%, depending on leverage levels.
The LOC had a balance of $6.0 million and $31.0 million outstanding as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. As of March 31, 2024, our LOC had a remaining borrowing capacity of $493.9 million.
As of March 31, 2024, we were in compliance in all material respects with the covenants in all our borrowing arrangements.
Note 8 – Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
We record all derivatives at fair value. Our objective in utilizing interest rate derivatives is to add stability to our interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. We do not enter into derivatives for speculative purposes.
In March 2021, we entered into a Swap Agreement (the “2021 Swap”), with a notional amount of $300.0 million allowing us to trade the variable interest rate associated with our $300.0 million Term Loan for a fixed interest rate. In March 2023, we amended the 2021 Swap agreement to reflect the change in the $300.0 million Term Loan interest rate benchmark from LIBOR to SOFR (see Note 7. Borrowing Arrangements). The 2021 Swap had a fixed interest rate of 0.41% per annum. The 2021 Swap matured on March 25, 2024.
In April 2023, we entered into a Swap Agreement (the “2023 Swap”) with a notional amount of $200.0 million allowing us to trade the variable interest rate associated with our $200.0 million Term Loan for a fixed interest rate. The 2023 Swap has a fixed interest rate of 3.68% per annum and matures on January 21, 2027. Based on the leverage as of March 31, 2024, our spread over SOFR was 1.20% resulting in an estimated all-in interest rate of 4.88% per annum.
In April 2024, we entered into new swap agreements. See Note 13. Subsequent Events for additional information.
Our derivative financial instruments are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The following table presents the fair value of our derivative financial instruments:

|  |  |  | As of March 31, |  | As of December 31,
(amounts in thousands) |  | Balance Sheet Location |  | 2024 |  | 2023
Interest Rate Swaps |  | Other assets, net |  | $ | 5,280 |  |  | $ | 6,061 |

The following table presents the effect of our derivative financial instrument on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income:

Derivatives in Cash Flow Hedging Relationship |  | Amount of (gain)/loss recognized in OCI on derivative for the quarters ended March 31, |  | Location of (gain)/ loss reclassified from Accumulated OCI into income |  | Amount of (gain)/loss reclassified from Accumulated OCI into income for the quarters ended March 31,
(amounts in thousands) |  | 2024 |  | 2023 |  | (amounts in thousands) |  | 2024 |  | 2023
Interest Rate Swaps |  | $ | (4,057) |  |  | $ | 523 |  |  | Interest Expense |  | $ | (4,838) |  |  | $ | (3,455) |

During the next twelve months, we estimate that $2.6 million will be reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as a decrease to interest expense. This estimate may be subject to change as the underlying SOFR changes. We determined that no adjustment was necessary for non-performance risk on our derivative obligation. As of March 31, 2024, we had not posted any collateral related to the 2023 Swap.

Note 10 – Equity Incentive Awards
Our 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”) was adopted by the Board of Directors on March 11, 2014 and approved by our stockholders on May 13, 2014.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2024, 90,378 shares of restricted stock were awarded to certain members of our management team. Of these shares, 50% are time-based awards, vesting in equal installments over a three-year period on February 4, 2025, February 3, 2026 and February 7, 2027, respectively, and have a grant date fair value of $3.0 million. The remaining 50% are performance-based awards vesting in equal installments on February 4, 2025, February 3, 2026 and February 7, 2027, respectively, upon meeting performance conditions as established by the Compensation Committee in the year of the vesting period. They are valued using the closing price at the grant date when all the key terms and conditions are known to all parties. The 15,062 shares of restricted stock subject to 2024 performance goals have a grant date fair value of $1.0 million.
Stock-based compensation expense, reported in General and administrative expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income, was $1.7 million and $2.5 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies
We are involved in various legal and regulatory proceedings (“Proceedings”) arising in the ordinary course of business. The Proceedings include, but are not limited to, legal claims made by employees, vendors and customers, and notices, consent decrees, information requests, additional permit requirements and other similar enforcement actions by governmental agencies relating to our utility infrastructure, including water and wastewater treatment plants and other waste treatment facilities and electrical systems. Additionally, in the ordinary course of business, our operations are subject to audit by various taxing authorities. Management believes these Proceedings taken together do not represent a material liability. In addition, to the extent any such Proceedings or audits relate to newly acquired Properties, we consider any potential indemnification obligations of sellers in our favor.
Beginning on August 31, 2023 through October 12, 2023, certain private party plaintiffs filed several putative class actions in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division, against Datacomp Appraisal Systems, Inc. (“Datacomp”) and several owner/operators of manufactured housing communities, including ELS (the “Datacomp Litigation”), alleging that the community owner/operators used JLT Market Reports produced by Datacomp to conspire to raise

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 11 - Commitments and Contingencies (continued)
manufactured home lot rents in violation of Section 1 of the Sherman Act. ELS purchased Datacomp in connection with the MHVillage/Datacomp acquisition during the year ended December 31, 2021. On December 15, 2023, the plaintiffs filed an amended consolidated complaint captioned, In re Manufactured Home Lot Rents Antitrust Litigation, No. 1:23-cv-6715. Plaintiffs seek both injunctive relief and monetary damages, including attorneys’ fees. The defendants filed a motion to dismiss on January 29, 2024.
We believe that the Datacomp Litigation is without merit, and we intend to vigorously defend our interests in this matter. As of March 31, 2024, we have not made an accrual, as we are unable to predict the outcome of this matter or reasonably estimate any possible loss.
Note 12 - Reportable Segments
We have identified two reportable segments: (i) Property Operations and (ii) Home Sales and Rentals Operations. The Property Operations segment owns and operates land lease Properties and the Home Sales and Rentals Operations segment purchases, sells and leases homes at the Properties. The distribution of the Properties throughout the United States reflects our belief that geographic diversification helps insulate the portfolio from regional economic influences.
All revenues were from external customers and there is no customer who contributed 10% or more of our total revenues during the quarters ended March 31, 2024 or 2023.

Note 13 – Subsequent Events
On April 1, 2024, we entered into three Swap Agreements (“2024 Swaps”) with an aggregate notional value of $300.0 million allowing us to trade the variable interest rate associated with our $300.0 million Term Loan (see Note 7. Borrowing Arrangements) for a fixed interest rate. The 2024 Swaps have a weighted average fixed interest rate of 4.65% per annum and mature on April 17, 2026. Based on the leverage as of March 31, 2024, our spread over SOFR was 1.40%, resulting in an estimated weighted average all-in fixed interest rate of 6.05% per annum.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (“2023 Form 10-K”), as well as information in Part II. Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our 2023 Form 10-K.
Overview and Outlook
We are a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”) with headquarters in Chicago, Illinois. We are a fully integrated owner of lifestyle-oriented properties (“Properties”) consisting of property operations and home sales and rental operations primarily within manufactured home (“MH”) and recreational vehicle (“RV”) communities and marinas. As of March 31, 2024, we owned or had an ownership interest in a portfolio of 451 Properties located throughout the United States and Canada containing 172,464 individual developed areas (“Sites”). These Properties are located in 35 states and British Columbia, with more than 110 Properties with lake, river or ocean frontage and more than 120 Properties within ten miles of the coastal United States.
We invest in properties in sought-after locations near retirement and vacation destinations and urban areas across the United States with a focus on delivering an exceptional experience to our residents and guests that results in delivery of value to stockholders. Our business model is intended to provide an opportunity for increased cash flows and appreciation in value. We seek growth in earnings, Funds from Operations (“FFO”), Normalized Funds from Operations (“Normalized FFO”) and cash flows by enhancing the profitability and operation of our Properties and investments. We accomplish this by attracting and retaining high quality customers to our Properties, who take pride in our Properties and in their homes and efficiently managing our Properties by increasing occupancy, maintaining competitive market rents and controlling expenses. We also actively pursue opportunities that fit our acquisition criteria and are currently engaged in various stages of negotiations relating to the possible acquisition of additional properties.
We believe the demand from baby boomers for MH and RV communities will continue to be strong over the long term. It is estimated that approximately 10,000 baby boomers are turning 65 daily through 2029. These individuals, seeking an active lifestyle, will continue to drive the market for second-home sales as vacation properties, investment opportunities or retirement retreats. We expect it is likely that over the next decade, we will continue to see high levels of second-home sales and that manufactured homes and cottages in our Properties will continue to provide a viable second-home alternative to site-built homes. We also believe the Millennial and Generation Z demographic will contribute to our future long-term customer pipeline. After conducting a comprehensive study of RV ownership, according to the Recreational Vehicle Industry Association (“RVIA”), data suggested that RV sales are expected to benefit from an increase in demand from those born in the United States from 1980 to 2003, or Millennials and Generation Z, over the coming years. We believe the demand from baby boomers and these younger generations will continue to outpace supply for MH and RV communities. The entitlement process to develop new MH and RV communities is extremely restrictive. As a result, there have been limited new communities developed in our target geographic markets.
We generate the majority of our revenues from customers renting our Sites or entering into right-to-use contracts, also known as membership subscriptions, which provide them access to specific Properties for limited stays. MH Sites are generally leased on an annual basis to residents who own or lease factory-built homes, including manufactured homes. Annual RV and marina Sites are leased on an annual basis to customers who generally have an RV, factory-built cottage, boat or other unit placed on the site, including those Northern properties that are open for the summer season. Seasonal RV and marina Sites are leased to customers generally for one to six months. Transient RV and marina Sites are leased to customers on a short-term basis. The revenue from seasonal and transient Sites is generally higher during the first and third quarters. We consider the transient revenue stream to be our most volatile as it is subject to weather conditions and other factors affecting the marginal RV customer’s vacation and travel preferences. We also generate revenue from customers renting our marina dry storage. Additionally, we have interests in joint venture Properties for which revenue is classified as Equity in income from unconsolidated joint ventures on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.

Management's Discussion and Analysis (continued)
The following table shows the breakdown of our Sites by type (amounts are approximate):

|  | Total Sites as of March 31, 2024
MH Sites |  | 73,000 |
RV Sites: |  |
Annual |  | 34,900 |
Seasonal |  | 11,800 |
Transient |  | 16,300 |
Marina Slips |  | 6,900 |
Membership (1) |  | 26,000 |
Joint Ventures (2) |  | 3,600 |
Total |  | 172,500 |

_________________________
(1)Primarily utilized to service approximately 118,900 members. Includes approximately 6,100 Sites rented on an annual basis.
(2)Includes approximately 2,000 annual Sites and 1,600 transient Sites.
In our Home Sales and Rentals Operations business, our revenue streams include home sales, home rentals and brokerage services and ancillary activities. We generate revenue through home sales and rental operations by selling or leasing manufactured homes and cottages that are located in Properties owned and managed by us. We believe renting our vacant homes represents an attractive source of occupancy and an opportunity to convert the renter to a homebuyer in the future. Additionally, home sale brokerage services are offered to our residents who may choose to sell their homes rather than relocate them when moving from a Property. At certain Properties, we operate ancillary facilities, such as golf courses, pro shops, stores and restaurants.
In the manufactured housing industry, options for home financing, also known as chattel financing, are limited. Chattel financing options available today include community owner-funded programs or third-party lender programs that provide subsidized financing to customers and often require the community owner to guarantee customer defaults. Third-party lender programs have stringent underwriting criteria, sizable down payment requirements, short term loan amortization and high interest rates. We have a limited program under which we purchase loans made by an unaffiliated lender to homebuyers at our Properties.
In addition to net income computed in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), we assess and measure our overall financial and operating performance using certain Non-GAAP supplemental measures, which include: (i) FFO, (ii) Normalized FFO, (iii) Income from property operations, (iv) Income from property operations, excluding property management, and (v) Core Portfolio income from property operations, excluding property management (operating results for Properties owned and operated in both periods under comparison). We use these measures internally to evaluate the operating performance of our portfolio and provide a basis for comparison with other real estate companies. Definitions and reconciliations of these measures to the most comparable GAAP measures are included below in this discussion.
Results Overview
For the quarter ended March 31, 2024, net income available for Common Stockholders increased $27.5 million to $109.9 million, or $0.59 per fully diluted Common Share, compared to $82.4 million, or $0.44 per fully diluted Common Share, for the same period in 2023.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2024, FFO available for Common Stock and Operating Partnership unit (“OP Unit”) holders increased $27.1 million, or $0.14 per fully diluted Common Share, to $167.4 million, or $0.86 per fully diluted Common Share, compared to $140.3 million, or $0.72 per fully diluted Common Share, for the same period in 2023.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2024, Normalized FFO available for Common Stock and OP Unit holders increased $12.2 million, or $0.06 per fully diluted Common Share, to $152.7 million, or $0.78 per fully diluted Common Share, compared to $140.5 million, or $0.72 per fully diluted Common Share, for the same period in 2023.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2024, our Core Portfolio property operating revenues increased 5.8% and property operating expenses, excluding property management, increased 3.9%, from the same period in 2023, resulting in an increase in income from property operations, excluding property management, of 7.1%, compared to the same period in 2023.

Management's Discussion and Analysis (continued)
We continue to focus on the quality of occupancy growth by increasing the number of manufactured homeowners in our Core Portfolio. Our Core Portfolio average occupancy includes both homeowners and renters in our MH communities and was 94.9% for each of the quarters ended March 31, 2024, December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023. For the quarter ended March 31, 2024, our Core Portfolio occupancy increased by 19 sites, which included an increase in homeowner occupancy of 123 sites and a decrease in rental occupancy of 104 compared to December 31, 2023. While we continue to focus on increasing the number of manufactured homeowners in our Core Portfolio, we also believe renting our vacant homes represents an attractive source of occupancy and an opportunity to potentially convert the renter to a new homebuyer in the future. We continue to expect there to be fluctuations in the sources of occupancy depending on local market conditions, availability of vacant sites and success with converting renters to homeowners. As of March 31, 2024, we had 2,158 occupied rental homes in our Core MH communities.
RV and marina base rental income in our Core Portfolio increased 5.8% for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023 driven primarily by an increase in Annual RV rental income. Core RV and marina base rental income from annuals represents 63.2% of total Core RV and marina base rental income and increased 8.0% for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023 due to an 8.7% increase in rate, offset by a 0.7% decrease in occupancy. Core seasonal and transient RV and marina base rental income increased 2.4% and 1.4%, respectively for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023 due to higher demand, particularly in our Florida portfolio.
Demand for our homes and communities remains strong as evidenced by factors including our high occupancy levels. We closed 191 new home sales during the quarter ended March 31, 2024, compared to 176 new home sales during the quarter ended March 31, 2023, an increase of 8.5%. The increase in new home sales during the quarter ended March 31, 2024 was primarily in the Florida and Arizona markets.
Our gross investment in real estate increased $47.0 million to $7,753.3 million as of March 31, 2024 from $7,706.3 million as of December 31, 2023, primarily due to capital improvements during the quarter ended March 31, 2024.
The following chart lists the Properties acquired from January 1, 2023 through March 31, 2024 and Sites added through expansion opportunities at our existing Properties:

|  | Location |  | Type of Property |  | Transaction Date |  | Sites
Total Sites as of January 1, 2023 (1) |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | 171,200
Acquisition Properties: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Red Oak Shores Campground |  | Ocean View, New Jersey |  | RV |  | March 28, 2023 |  | 223

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations include certain Non-GAAP financial measures that in management’s view of the business are meaningful as they allow investors the ability to understand key operating details of our business both with and without regard to certain accounting conventions or items that may not always be indicative of recurring annual cash flows of the portfolio. These Non-GAAP financial measures as determined and presented by us may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, and include income from property operations and Core Portfolio, FFO and Normalized FFO.
We believe investors should review Income from property operations and Core Portfolio, FFO and Normalized FFO, along with GAAP net income and cash flow from operating activities, investing activities and financing activities, when evaluating an equity REIT’s operating performance. A discussion of Income from property operations and Core Portfolio, FFO and Normalized FFO, and a reconciliation to net income are included below.
20

Management's Discussion and Analysis (continued)
Income from Property Operations and Core Portfolio
We use income from property operations, income from property operations, excluding property management, and Core Portfolio income from property operations, excluding property management, as alternative measures to evaluate the operating results of our Properties. Income from property operations represents rental income, membership subscriptions and upgrade sales, utility and other income less property and rental home operating and maintenance expenses, real estate taxes, membership sales and marketing expenses and property management expenses. Income from property operations, excluding property management, represents income from property operations excluding property management expenses. Property management represents the expenses associated with indirect costs such as off-site payroll and certain administrative and professional expenses. We believe exclusion of property management expenses is helpful to investors and analysts as a measure of the operating results of our properties, excluding items that are not directly related to the operation of the properties. For comparative purposes, we present bad debt expense within Property operating and maintenance in the current and prior periods. We believe that this Non-GAAP financial measure is helpful to investors and analysts as a measure of the operating results of our properties.
Our Core Portfolio consists of our Properties owned and operated during all of 2023 and 2024. Core Portfolio income from property operations, excluding property management, is useful to investors for annual comparison as it removes the fluctuations associated with acquisitions, dispositions and significant transactions or unique situations. Our Non-Core Portfolio includes all Properties that were not owned and operated during all of 2023 and 2024, including six properties in Florida impacted by Hurricane Ian and two properties in California that were impacted by storm and flooding events.
FFO and Normalized FFO
We define FFO as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from sales of properties, depreciation and amortization related to real estate, impairment charges and adjustments to reflect our share of FFO of unconsolidated joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. We compute FFO in accordance with our interpretation of standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), which may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do.
We believe FFO, as defined by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, is generally a measure of performance for an equity REIT. While FFO is a relevant and widely used measure of operating performance for equity REITs, it does not represent cash flow from operations or net income as defined by GAAP, and it should not be considered as an alternative to these indicators in evaluating liquidity or operating performance.
We define Normalized FFO as FFO excluding non-operating income and expense items, such as gains and losses from early debt extinguishment, including prepayment penalties, defeasance costs, transaction/pursuit costs and other, and other miscellaneous non-comparable items. Normalized FFO presented herein is not necessarily comparable to Normalized FFO presented by other real estate companies due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same methodology for computing this amount.
We believe that FFO and Normalized FFO are helpful to investors as supplemental measures of the performance of an equity REIT. We believe that by excluding the effect of gains or losses from sales of properties, depreciation and amortization related to real estate and impairment charges, which are based on historical costs and may be of limited relevance in evaluating current performance, FFO can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and among other equity REITs. We further believe that Normalized FFO provides useful information to investors, analysts and our management because it allows them to compare our operating performance to the operating performance of other real estate companies and between periods on a consistent basis without having to account for differences not related to our normal operations. For example, we believe that excluding the early extinguishment of debt and other miscellaneous non-comparable items from FFO allows investors, analysts and our management to assess the sustainability of operating performance in future periods because these costs do not affect the future operations of the properties. In some cases, we provide information about identified non-cash components of FFO and Normalized FFO because it allows investors, analysts and our management to assess the impact of those items.
Our definitions and calculations of these Non-GAAP financial and operating measures and other terms may differ from the definitions and methodologies used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable. These Non-GAAP financial and operating measures do not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, nor do they represent cash available to pay distributions and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, determined in accordance with GAAP, as an indication of our financial performance, or to cash flows from operating activities, determined in accordance with GAAP, as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions.

(1)Rental income consists of the following total portfolio income items in this table: 1) MH base rental income, 2) Rental home income, 3) RV and marina base rental income and 4) Utility income, which is calculated by subtracting Other income on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income from Utility and other income in this table. The difference between the sum of the total portfolio income items and Rental income on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income is bad debt expense, which is presented in Property operating and maintenance expense in this table.
(2)Membership upgrade sales revenue is net of deferrals of $3.6 million and $4.5 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, respectively.
(3)Includes bad debt expense for all periods presented.
(4)Membership sales and marketing expense is net of sales commission deferrals of $0.4 million and $0.7 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, respectively.
(5)See Part I. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis—Non-GAAP Financial Measures for definitions and reconciliations of these Non-GAAP measures to Net Income available for Common Shareholders.
Total portfolio income from property operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, increased $13.2 million, or 7.4%, from the quarter ended March 31, 2023, driven by an increase of $13.5 million, or 7.8%, from our Core Portfolio, offset by a decrease of $0.3 million from our Non-Core Portfolio. The increase in income from property operations from our Core Portfolio was primarily due to higher property operating revenues, primarily in MH base rental income, RV and marina base rental income, partially offset by an increase in real estate taxes and property operating and maintenance expenses.

Management's Discussion and Analysis (continued)
Property Operating Revenues
MH base rental income in our Core Portfolio for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 increased $10.5 million, or 6.4%, from the quarter ended March 31, 2023, which reflects 6.3% growth from rate increases and 0.1% from occupancy gains. The average monthly base rental income per Site in our Core Portfolio increased to approximately $847 for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 from approximately $797 for the quarter ended March 31, 2023. The average occupancy for our Core Portfolio was 94.9% for both the quarters ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023.
RV and marina base rental income is comprised of the following:

|  | Core Portfolio |  | Total Portfolio
|  | Quarters Ended March 31, |  | Quarters Ended March 31,
(amounts in thousands) |  | 2024 |  | 2023 |  | Variance |  | % Change |  | 2024 |  | 2023 |  | Variance |  | % Change
Annual |  | $ | 73,051 |  |  | $ | 67,624 |  |  | $ | 5,427 |  |  | 8.0 | % |  | $ | 75,475 |  |  | $ | 69,401 |  |  | $ | 6,074 |  |  | 8.8 | %
Seasonal |  | 28,276 |  |  | 27,606 |  |  | 670 |  |  | 2.4 | % |  | 29,545 |  |  | 27,960 |  |  | 1,585 |  |  | 5.7 | %
Transient |  | 14,301 |  |  | 14,110 |  |  | 191 |  |  | 1.4 | % |  | 15,147 |  |  | 14,231 |  |  | 916 |  |  | 6.4 | %
RV and marina base rental income |  | $ | 115,628 |  |  | $ | 109,340 |  |  | $ | 6,288 |  |  | 5.8 | % |  | $ | 120,167 |  |  | $ | 111,592 |  |  | $ | 8,575 |  |  | 7.7 | %

RV and marina base rental income in our Core Portfolio for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 increased $6.3 million, or 5.8%, from the quarter ended March 31, 2023, driven primarily by an increase in Annual RV and marina base rental income. The increase in Annual RV and marina base rental income of 8.0% was driven by an increase in rate of 8.7%, offset by a decline of 0.7% in occupancy. The increase in Seasonal and Transient RV and marina base rental income of 2.4% and 1.4%, respectively, for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023, was due to higher demand, particularly in our Florida portfolio.
Utility and other income in our Core Portfolio for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 increased $1.7 million, or 5.6%, from the quarter ended March 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to a $1.1 million and $0.6 million increase in other property income and pass-through income, respectively. The increase in other property income compared to the same period last year was mainly due to $0.8 million of amenity and other income. The increase in pass-through income was driven by increased real estate tax pass-throughs to customers.
Property Operating Expenses
Property operating expenses, excluding property management, in our Core Portfolio for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 increased $5.3 million, or 3.9%, from the quarter ended March 31, 2023, driven by increases in real estate taxes of $2.6 million and property operating and maintenance expenses of $1.8 million. Core real estate taxes were higher in 2024, primarily in the South and North regions, driven by tax increases that were effective in 2023. Property operating and maintenance expenses were higher in 2024 primarily due to an increase in insurance expense of $1.9 million due to higher insurance premiums following our property and casualty insurance renewal in the second quarter of 2023.

Miscellaneous Other Income and Expenses
The following table summarizes other income and expenses, net:

|  | Quarters Ended March 31,
(amounts in thousands, expenses shown as negative) |  | 2024 |  | 2023 |  | Variance |  | % Change
Depreciation and amortization |  | $ | (51,108) |  |  | $ | (50,502) |  |  | $ | (606) |  |  | (1.2) | %
Interest income |  | 2,168 |  |  | 2,088 |  |  | 80 |  |  | 3.8 | %
Income from other investments, net |  | 2,038 |  |  | 2,091 |  |  | (53) |  |  | (2.5) | %
General and administrative |  | (11,989) |  |  | (11,661) |  |  | (328) |  |  | (2.8) | %
Other expenses |  | (1,331) |  |  | (1,468) |  |  | 137 |  |  | 9.3 | %
Interest and related amortization |  | (33,543) |  |  | (32,588) |  |  | (955) |  |  | (2.9) | %
Total other income and expenses, net |  | $ | (93,765) |  |  | $ | (92,040) |  |  | $ | (1,725) |  |  | (1.9) | %

Total other income and expenses, net increased $1.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2023, primarily due to higher interest and related amortization expense as a result of an increase in interest rates, as well as increases in depreciation and amortization and general and administrative expenses.
Casualty-related charges/(recoveries), net
During the quarters ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, we recognized expenses of approximately $0.5 million and $8.5 million, respectively, related to debris removal and cleanup costs related to Hurricane Ian and we recognized an offsetting insurance recovery revenue accrual of $0.5 million and $8.5 million, respectively, related to the expected insurance recovery. During the quarter ended March 31, 2024, we also recognized excess insurance recovery revenue of approximately $14.8 million within Casualty-related charges/(recoveries), net for reimbursement of capital expenditures. The debris and cleanup costs and offsetting recovery accrual and reimbursement of capital expenditures are reflected in Casualty-related charges/(recoveries), net on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
Our primary demands for liquidity include payment of operating expenses, dividend distributions, debt service, including principal and interest, capital improvements on Properties, home purchases and property acquisitions. We expect similar demand for liquidity will continue for the short-term and long-term. Our primary sources of cash include operating cash flows, proceeds from financings, borrowings under our unsecured line of credit (the “LOC”) and proceeds from issuance of equity and debt securities, including issuances under our ATM equity offering program (as defined below).
One of our stated objectives is to maintain financial flexibility. Achieving this objective allows us to take advantage of strategic opportunities that may arise. When investing capital, we consider all potential uses, including returning capital to our stockholders or the conditions under which we may repurchase our stock. These conditions include, but are not limited to, market price, balance sheet flexibility, alternative opportunistic capital uses and capital requirements. We believe effective management of our balance sheet, including maintaining various access points to raise capital, managing future debt maturities and borrowing at competitive rates, enables us to meet this objective. Accessing long-term low-cost secured debt continues to be our focus.
On February 28, 2024, we entered into a new at-the-market (“ATM”) equity offering program, pursuant to which we may sell, from time-to-time, shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share, having an aggregate offering price of up to $500.0 million. As of March 31, 2024, the full capacity of our ATM equity offering program remained available for issuance.
As of March 31, 2024, we had available liquidity in the form of approximately 413.5 million shares of authorized and unissued common stock, par value $0.01 per share, and 10.0 million shares of authorized and unissued preferred stock registered for sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
We also utilize interest rate swaps to add stability to our interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. The changes in the fair value of the designated derivative are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and subsequently reclassified into earnings on the Consolidated Statements of Income and

Management's Discussion and Analysis (continued)
Comprehensive Income in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. For additional information regarding our interest rate swaps, see Part I. Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 8. Derivative Instruments and Hedging and Note 13. Subsequent Events.
We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements, including principal payments, capital improvements and dividend distributions for the next twelve months, generally through available cash, net cash provided by operating activities, issuances of equity under our ATM equity offering program and our LOC. As of March 31, 2024, our LOC had a borrowing capacity of $493.9 million.
We expect to meet certain long-term liquidity requirements, such as scheduled debt maturities, property acquisitions and capital improvements, using long-term collateralized and uncollateralized borrowings including the existing LOC and the issuance of debt securities or the issuance of equity including under our ATM equity offering program.
The following table summarizes our cash flows activity:

| For the quarters ended March 31,
(amounts in thousands) | 2024 |  | 2023
Net cash provided by operating activities | $ | 198,748 |  |  | $ | 158,980 |

Net cash used in financing activities | (130,112) |  |  | (84,219) |
Net increase in cash and restricted cash | $ | 17,344 |  |  | $ | 8,314 |

Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities increased $39.8 million to $198.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 from $159.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to net increases in manufactured homes, net, accounts payable and other liabilities and other assets, net, partially offset by a reduction in proceeds from insurance claims, net.
The following table summarizes our purchase and sale activity of manufactured homes:

|  | For the quarters ended March 31,
(amounts in thousands) |  | 2024 |  | 2023
Purchase of manufactured homes |  | $ | (12,927) |  |  | $ | (35,481) |
Sale of manufactured homes |  | 15,260 |  |  | 15,907 |
Manufactured homes, net |  | $ | 2,333 |  |  | $ | (19,574) |

Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities decreased $15.1 million to $51.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 from $66.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023. The decrease was due to a decrease in spending on acquisitions of $8.8 million, a decrease in investments in unconsolidated joint ventures of $0.4 million and a decrease in capital improvement spending of $6.3 million.

Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities increased $45.9 million to $130.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 from $84.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to a line of credit, net repayment of $39.0 million.
Contractual Obligations
Significant ongoing contractual obligations consist primarily of long-term borrowings, interest expense, operating leases, LOC maintenance fees and ground leases. For a summary and complete presentation and description of our ongoing commitments and contractual obligations, see Part II. Item 7.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer and principal accounting officer), has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2024.

Part II – Other Information
Item 1.Legal Proceedings
See Part I. Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies accompanying the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Item 1A.Risk Factors
A description of the risk factors associated with our business are discussed in Part1. Item 1A. Risk Factors in our 2023 Form 10-K. On April 1, 2024, we renewed our property and casualty insurance policies. We have updated our risk factors disclosed in Part1. Item 1A. Risk Factors in our 2023 Form 10-K with the risk factor described below.
Some Potential Losses Are Not Covered by Insurance
We carry comprehensive insurance coverage for losses resulting from property damage and environmental liability and business interruption claims on all of our Properties. In addition, we carry liability coverage for other activities not specifically related to property operations. These coverages include, but are not limited to, Directors & Officers liability, Employment Practices liability, Fiduciary liability and Cyber liability. We believe that the policy specifications and coverage limits of these policies should be adequate and appropriate given the relative risk of loss, the cost of insurance and industry practice. There are, however, certain types of losses, such as punitive damages, lease and other contract claims that generally are not insured. Should an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of coverage limits occur, we could lose all or a portion of the capital we have invested in a Property or the anticipated future revenue from a Property. In such an event, we might nevertheless remain obligated for any mortgage debt or other financial obligations related to the Property.
Our current property and casualty insurance policies with respect to our MH and RV Properties renewed on April 1, 2024. We have a $125.0 million per occurrence limit with respect to our MH and RV all-risk property insurance program, which includes $75.0 million of coverage per occurrence for named windstorms, which include, for example, hurricanes. The loss limit is subject to additional sub-limits as set forth in the policy form, including, among others, a $25.0 million aggregate loss limit for earthquake(s) in California. The deductibles for this policy primarily range from $500,000 minimum to 5% per unit of insurance for most catastrophic events. For most catastrophic events, there is an additional one-time aggregate deductible of $10.0 million, which is capped at $5.0 million per occurrence. We have separate insurance policies with respect to our marina Properties. Those casualty policies expire on November 1, 2024, and the property insurance program renewed on April 1, 2024. The marina property insurance program has a $30.0 million per occurrence limit, subject to self-insurance and a minimum deductible of $100,000 plus, for named windstorms, 5% per unit of insurance subject to a $500,000 minimum. A deductible indicates our maximum exposure, subject to policy limits and sub-limits, in the event of a loss.
