2023 Guidance Assumptions
Our key guidance assumptions for 2023 are enumerated below. See definitions at the end of this release for further information regarding our same-store definitions.

Same-Store Portfolio | Previous 2023 Outlook | Current 2023 Outlook(1) | Change at Midpoint
Number of properties/units | 116 properties / 34,571 units | 115 properties / 34,179 units | —
Property revenue growth | 5.7% to 7.0% | 6.1% to 6.6% | —
Controllable operating expense growth | 3.3% to 5.4% | 4.7% to 5.4% | 0.7%
Real estate tax and insurance expense growth | 8.1% to 9.1% | 7.5% to 8.1% | (0.8)%
Total operating expense growth | 5.2% to 6.9% | 5.7% to 6.4% | —
Property NOI growth | 5.0% to 8.0% | 6.0% to 7.0% | —
Corporate Expenses |  |  |
General and administrative & Property management expenses | $51.5 million to $53.5 million | $50.5 million to $51.5 million | ($1.5) million
Interest expense(2) | $104.5 million to $106.5 million | $102.5 million to $103.5 million | ($2.5) million
Transaction/Investment Volume(3) |  |  |
Acquisition volume | None | None | —
Disposition volume | $35 million to $40 million | $122 million to $127 million | $87 million
Capital Expenditures |  |  |
Recurring | $19.0 million to $21.0 million | $20.0 million to $22.0 million | $1.0 million
Value add & non-recurring | $78.0 million to $82.0 million | $78.0 million to $82.0 million | —
Development | $80.0 million to $90.0 million | $80.0 million to $90.0 million | —

(1)This guidance, including the underlying assumptions, constitutes forward-looking information. Actual results could vary significantly from the projections presented. See “Forward-Looking Statements” below.
(2)Interest expense includes amortization of deferred financing costs but excludes loan premium accretion, net. As a result of purchase accounting, we recorded a $72.1 million loan premium, net, related to STAR debt. This loan premium will be accreted into and reduce GAAP interest expense over the remaining term of the associated debt. However, loan premium accretion will be excluded from CFFO.
(3)Includes one asset sale that occurred in the first quarter 2023 and one property identified as held for sale as of June 30, 2023. We continue to evaluate our portfolio for capital recycling opportunities so actual acquisitions and dispositions could vary significantly from our projections. We undertake no duty to update these assumptions. See “Forward-Looking Statements” below.

Definitions
Average Effective Monthly Rent per Unit
Average effective rent per unit represents the average of gross rent amounts, divided by the average occupancy (in units) for the period presented. We believe average effective rent is a helpful measurement in evaluating average pricing. This metric, when presented, reflects the average effective rent per month.
Average Occupancy
Average occupancy represents the average occupied units for the reporting period divided by the average of total units available for rent for the reporting period.
Development Property
A development property is a property that is either currently under development or is in lease-up prior to reaching overall occupancy of 90%.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
Each of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. EBITDA is defined as net income before interest expense including amortization of deferred financing costs, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization expenses. Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA before certain other non-cash or non-operating gains or losses related to items such as asset sales, debt extinguishments and acquisition related debt extinguishment expenses, casualty (gains) losses, merger and integration costs, income (loss) from investments in unconsolidated real estate entities, and restructuring costs. We consider each of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to be an appropriate supplemental measure of performance because it eliminates interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and other non-cash or non-operating gains and losses, which permits investors to view income from operations without these non-cash or non-operating items. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA differs from the methodology used for calculating Adjusted EBITDA by certain other REITs and, accordingly, our Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to Adjusted EBITDA reported by other REITs.
Funds From Operations (“FFO”) and Core Funds From Operations (“CFFO”)
We believe that FFO and CFFO, each of which is a non-GAAP financial measure, are additional appropriate measures of the operating performance of a REIT and us in particular. We compute FFO in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), as net income or loss allocated to common shares (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding real estate-related depreciation and amortization expense, gains or losses on sales of real estate and the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles. While our calculation of FFO is in accordance with NAREIT’s definition, it may differ from the methodology for calculating FFO utilized by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to FFO computations of such other REITs.
CFFO is a computation made by analysts and investors to measure a real estate company’s operating performance by removing the effect of items that do not reflect ongoing property operations, including depreciation and amortization of other items not included in FFO, and other non-cash or non-operating gains or losses related to items such as casualty (gains) losses, loan premium accretion and discount amortization, debt extinguishment costs, merger and integration costs, and restructuring costs from the determination of FFO.
Our calculation of CFFO may differ from the methodology used for calculating CFFO by other REITs and, accordingly, our CFFO may not be comparable to CFFO reported by other REITs. Our management utilizes FFO and CFFO as measures of our operating performance, and believe they are also useful to investors, because they facilitate an understanding of our operating performance after adjustment for certain non-cash or non-recurring items that are required by GAAP to be expensed but may not necessarily be indicative of current
11

operating performance and our operating performance between periods. Furthermore, although FFO, CFFO and other supplemental performance measures are defined in various ways throughout the REIT industry, we believe that FFO and CFFO may provide us and our investors with an additional useful measure to compare our financial performance to certain other REITs. Neither FFO nor CFFO is equivalent to net income or cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, FFO and CFFO do not represent amounts available for management’s discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments or uncertainties. Accordingly, FFO and CFFO do not measure whether cash flow is sufficient to fund all of our cash needs, including principal amortization and capital improvements. Neither FFO nor CFFO should be considered as an alternative to net income or any other GAAP measurement as an indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow from operating, investing, and financing activities as a measure of our liquidity.
Interest Coverage
Interest coverage is a ratio computed by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by interest expense.
Net Debt
Net debt, a non-GAAP financial measure, equals total consolidated debt less cash and cash equivalents and loan premiums and discounts. The following table provides a reconciliation of total consolidated debt to net debt (Dollars in thousands).

|  | As of
|  | Jun 30, 2023 |  | Mar 31, 2023 |  | Dec 31, 2022 |  | Sep 30, 2022 |  | Jun 30, 2022
Total debt |  | $ | 2,650,805 |  |  | $ | 2,628,632 |  |  | $ | 2,631,645 |  |  | $ | 2,713,625 |  |  | $ | 2,552,936 |
Less: cash and cash equivalents |  | (14,349) |  |  | (12,448) |  |  | (16,084) |  |  | (23,753) |  |  | (11,378) |
Less: loan discounts and premiums, net |  | (53,520) |  |  | (56,256) |  |  | (59,937) |  |  | (63,340) |  |  | (66,091) |
Total net debt |  | $ | 2,582,936 |  |  | $ | 2,559,928 |  |  | $ | 2,555,624 |  |  | $ | 2,626,532 |  |  | $ | 2,475,467 |

We present net debt and net debt to Adjusted EBITDA because management believes it is a useful measure of our credit position and progress toward reducing leverage. The calculation is limited because we may not always be able to use cash to repay debt on a dollar for dollar basis.
Net Operating Income
We believe that Net Operating Income (“NOI”), a non-GAAP financial measure, is a useful measure of our operating performance. We define NOI as total property revenues less total property operating expenses, excluding interest expense, depreciation and amortization, casualty related costs and gains, property management expenses, general and administrative expenses, net gains on sale of assets, merger and integration costs, and restructuring costs.
Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. We believe that this measure provides an operating perspective not immediately apparent from GAAP operating income or net income. We use NOI to evaluate our performance on a same-store and non same-store basis because NOI measures the core operations of property performance by excluding corporate level expenses and other items not related to property operating performance and captures trends in rental housing and property operating expenses. However, NOI should only be used as an alternative measure of our financial performance.
Non Same-Store Properties and Non Same-Store Portfolio
Properties that did not meet the definition of a same-store property as of the beginning of the previous year.
12

Same-Store Properties and Same-Store Portfolio
We review our same-store portfolio at the beginning of each calendar year. Properties are added into the same-store portfolio if they were owned and not a development property at the beginning of the previous year. Properties that are held for sale or have been sold are excluded from the same-store portfolio.
Total Gross Assets
Total Gross Assets equals total assets plus accumulated depreciation and accumulated amortization, including fully depreciated or amortized real estate and real estate related assets. The following table provides a reconciliation of total assets to total gross assets (dollars in thousands).

|  | As of
|  | Jun 30, 2023 |  | Mar 31, 2023 |  | Dec 31, 2022 |  | Sep 30, 2022 |  | Jun 30, 2022
Total assets |  | $ | 6,517,400 |  |  | $ | 6,493,747 |  |  | $ | 6,532,095 |  |  | $ | 6,633,533 |  |  | $ | 6,386,634 |
Plus: accumulated depreciation (a) |  | 523,446 |  |  | 475,001 |  |  | 426,097 |  |  | 386,606 |  |  | 337,338 |
