INVESTMENT ACTIVITY |
INVESTMENT ACTIVITY | 4. INVESTMENT ACTIVITY ​ The Company did not acquire or dispose of any wholly-owned stores during the six months ended June 30, 2023. ​ 2022 Acquisitions ​ During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company acquired three stores located in Georgia (1), Maryland (1) and Texas (1) for an aggregate purchase price of $75.7 million. In connection with these transactions, which were accounted for as asset acquisitions, the Company allocated the purchase price and acquisition-related costs to the tangible and intangible assets acquired based on fair value. Intangible assets consisted of in-place leases, which aggregated to $3.4 million at the time of the acquisition and prior to amortization of such amounts. The estimated life of these in-place leases is 12 months and the amortization expense that was recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was approximately $0.5 million and $1.2 million, respectively. The amortization expense that was recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively. ​ Additionally, on February 2, 2022, the Company acquired land underlying a wholly-owned store located in Bronx, New York for $7.5 million. The land was previously subject to a ground lease in which the Company served as lessee. As a result of the transaction, which was accounted for as an asset acquisition, the Company was released from its obligations under the ground lease, and the right-of-use asset and lease liability totaling $4.1 million and $5.0 million, respectively, were removed from the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. ​ Also, on April 28, 2022, the Company acquired land underlying a store owned by 191 IV CUBE LLC, an unconsolidated joint venture in which the Company holds a 20% ownership interest (see note 5). The purchase price for the land was $6.1 million, and the Company now serves as the lessor in a ground lease to 191 IV CUBE LLC. ​ ​ 2022 Dispositions ​ During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company sold the Los Angeles Athletic Club, which it purchased in December 2021 as part of its acquisition of LAACO, Ltd. (“LAACO”), for $44.0 million. No gain or loss was recognized in conjunction with the sale. ​ Assets Held for Sale ​ As of June 30, 2023, the Company determined that the California Yacht Club (the "CYC"), which it purchased in December 2021 as part of its acquisition of LAACO, met the criteria to be classified as held for sale. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities associated with the CYC have been categorized as held for sale within the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2023, the estimated fair value less selling costs of the CYC was greater than the carrying value of the CYC, and therefore no loss has been recorded in the current period. ​ Development Activity ​ As of June 30, 2023, the Company had invested in consolidated joint ventures to develop three self-storage properties located in New Jersey (1) and New York (2). Construction for these projects is expected to be completed at various times between the first and fourth quarters of 2024. As of June 30, 2023, development costs incurred to date for these projects totaled $42.9 million. Total construction costs for these projects are expected to be $82.5 million. These costs are capitalized to construction in progress while the project is under development and are reflected in Storage properties on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. ​ The Company completed the construction and opened for operation the following stores during the year ended December 31, 2022. The costs associated with the construction of these stores are capitalized to land, building and improvements, as well as equipment and are reflected in Storage properties on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. No stores were completed and opened for operation during the six months ended June 30, 2023. ​
