AMERICOLD ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER 2024 RESULTS
Achieves Double Digit Same Store NOI Growth,
Record Services Margins for a Second Consecutive Quarter and Raises Full Year Earnings Guidance
Atlanta, GA, August 8, 2024 - Americold Realty Trust, Inc. (NYSE: COLD) (the “Company”), a global leader in temperature-controlled logistics, real estate, and value-added services focused on the ownership, operation, acquisition and development of temperature-controlled warehouses, today announced financial and operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.
George Chappelle, Chief Executive Officer of Americold Realty Trust, stated, “As the operational and financial results of the second quarter highlight, it's been another great quarter for organic growth at Americold as we produced double digit year-over-year growth in Global Warehouse Same Store NOI, Same Store Warehouse Services Margins, and ultimately AFFO. The efforts the team has put in over the past almost three years to build a productive, stabilized workforce have created a solid foundation in which we were not only able to expand, but continue to produce sustainable services margins across any macroeconomic environment, which supported the improvement in our outlook for the year. Further, the significant investments we have made in our technology and the processes we have put in place have resulted in enhanced revenue capture, and better labor and cost management. We have also been investing back into our business by doubling the capital deployment development guide from last year to $200 - $300 million this year, and are tracking to potentially exceed that number. All of these efforts sets Americold up extremely well for the eventual return of consumer demand.”

Second Quarter 2024 Total Company Financial Results
Total revenue for the second quarter of 2024 was $661.0 million, a 1.7% change from the $649.6 million from the same quarter of the prior year, which was the result of growth within our Global Warehouse segment, partially offset by changes in our Transportation and Third-party managed segments. The growth within our Global Warehouse segment was driven by our pricing initiatives and rate escalations, partially offset by lower economic occupancy and throughput.
Total NOI for the second quarter of 2024 was $215.5 million, an increase of 17.1% from the same quarter of the prior year. This increase is a result of strong variable cost control driving higher warehouse services margins, in addition to the drivers of revenue growth mentioned above.
For the second quarter of 2024, the Company reported net loss of $64.4 million, or $0.23 loss per diluted share, compared to net loss of $104.8 million, or $0.39 loss per diluted share, for the comparable quarter of the prior year.
Core EBITDA was $165.5 million for the second quarter of 2024, compared to $134.7 million for the comparable quarter of the prior year. This reflects a 22.9% increase over prior year on an actual basis, and 24.7% on a constant currency basis. The increase is due to the same factors driving the increase in NOI mentioned above.
For the second quarter of 2024, Core FFO was $95.0 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, compared to $62.5 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2023.
For the second quarter of 2024, AFFO was $109.4 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, compared to $75.6 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2023.

(n/a = not applicable)
(n/r = not relevant)
For the second quarter of 2024, Global Warehouse segment revenue was $600.4 million, an increase of $19.2 million, or 3.3%, compared to $581.2 million for the second quarter of 2023. This growth was principally driven by our pricing initiatives and rate escalations. This was partially offset by lower occupancy and throughput pallets due to consumer buying habits.
Global Warehouse segment contribution (NOI) was $204.5 million for the second quarter of 2024 as compared to $172.8 million for the second quarter of 2023, an increase of $31.7 million or 18.3%. Global Warehouse segment contribution (NOI) increased due to higher revenue, strong variable cost controls and labor efficiencies. Global Warehouse segment margin was 34.1% for the second quarter of 2024, a 433 basis point increase as to compared to the second quarter of 2023, driven by improvement in our warehouse services margin.
Fixed Commitment Rent and Storage Revenue
As of June 30, 2024, $618.0 million of the Company’s annualized rent and storage revenues were derived from customers with fixed commitment storage contracts. This compares to $597.9 million at the end of the first quarter of 2024 and $521.3 million at the end of the second quarter of 2023. We continue to make progress on commercializing business under this type of arrangement. On a combined pro forma basis, assuming a full twelve months of acquisitions revenue, 56.6% of rent and storage revenue was generated from fixed commitment storage contracts.

Economic and Physical Occupancy
Contracts that contain fixed commitments are designed to ensure the Company’s customers have space available when needed. For the second quarter of 2024, economic occupancy for the total warehouse segment was 78.1% and warehouse segment same store pool was 79.4%, representing a 1,035 basis point and 1,049 basis point increase above physical occupancy, respectively. Economic occupancy for the total warehouse segment decreased 634 basis points, and the warehouse segment same store pool decreased 526 basis points as compared to the second quarter of 2023.
Real Estate Portfolio
As of June 30, 2024, the Company’s portfolio consists of 239 facilities. The Company ended the second quarter of 2024 with 235 facilities in its Global Warehouse segment portfolio and four facilities in its Third-party managed segment. The same store population consists of 226 facilities for the quarter ended June 30, 2024. The non-same store facility count consists of: five sites in the expansion and development phase, two facilities that we purchased in 2023, one facility that requires capital investment in anticipation of repurposing, and one site in which we have ceased operations and intend to lease to a third party.
Balance Sheet Activity and Liquidity
As of June 30, 2024, the Company had total liquidity of approximately $553.7 million, including cash and capacity on its revolving credit facility. Total net debt outstanding was $3.3 billion (inclusive of $177.0 million of financing leases/sale lease-backs and exclusive of unamortized deferred financing fees), of which 95% was in an unsecured structure. At quarter end, net debt to pro forma Core EBITDA was approximately 5.3x. The Company’s total debt outstanding includes $3.2 billion of unsecured debt, which excludes sale-leaseback and financing lease obligations. The Company’s real estate debt has a remaining weighted average term of 4.6 years and carries a weighted average contractual interest rate of 4.0%. As of June 30, 2024, 82% of the Company’s total debt outstanding was at a fixed rate, inclusive of hedged variable-rate for fixed-rate debt. The Company has no material debt maturities until 2026, inclusive of extension options.

We view and manage our business through three primary business segments—warehouse, transportation, third-party managed. Our core business is our warehouse segment, where we provide temperature-controlled warehouse storage and related handling and other warehouse services. In our warehouse segment, we collect rent and storage fees from customers to store their frozen and perishable food and other products within our real estate portfolio. We also provide our customers with handling and other warehouse services related to the products stored in our buildings that are designed to optimize their movement through the cold chain, such as the placement of food products for storage and preservation, the retrieval of products from storage upon customer request, case-picking, blast freezing, produce grading and bagging, ripening, kitting, protein boxing, repackaging, e-commerce fulfillment, and other recurring handling services.
In our transportation segment, we broker and manage transportation of frozen and perishable food and other products for our customers. Our transportation services include consolidation services (i.e., consolidating a customer’s products with those of other customers for more efficient shipment), freight under management services (i.e., arranging for and overseeing transportation of customer inventory) and dedicated transportation services, each designed to improve efficiency and reduce transportation and logistics costs to our customers. We provide these transportation services at cost plus a service fee or, in the case of our consolidation or dedicated services, we may charge a fixed fee. We supplemented our regional, national and truckload consolidation services with the transportation operations from various warehouse acquisitions. We also provide multi-modal global freight forwarding services to support our customers’ needs in certain markets.
Under our third-party managed segment, we manage warehouses on behalf of third parties and provide warehouse management services to leading food manufacturers and retailers in their owned facilities. We believe using our third-party management services allows our customers to increase efficiency, reduce costs, reduce supply-chain risks and focus on their core businesses. We also believe that providing third-party management services allows us to offer a complete and integrated suite of services across the cold chain.

Notes and Definitions
We use the following non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental performance measures of our business: NAREIT FFO, Core FFO, Adjusted FFO, NAREIT EBITDAre, Core EBITDA, Core EBITDA margin, net debt to pro-forma Core EBITDA, segment contribution (‘NOI”) and margin, same store revenue and NOI, and maintenance capital expenditures.
We calculate funds from operations, or FFO, in accordance with the standards established by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT. NAREIT defines FFO as net income or loss determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding extraordinary items as defined under U.S. GAAP and gains or losses from sales of previously depreciated operating real estate and other assets, plus specified non-cash items, such as real estate asset depreciation and amortization impairment charge on real estate related assets and our share of reconciling items for partially owned entities. We believe that FFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it excludes the effect of depreciation, amortization and gains or losses from sales of real estate, all of which are based on historical costs, which implicitly assumes that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, FFO can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and among other equity REITs.
We calculate core funds from operations, or Core FFO, as NAREIT FFO adjusted for the effects of Net (gain) loss on sale of non-real estate assets, Acquisition, cyber incident and other, net, Goodwill impairment, Loss on debt extinguishment and termination of derivative instruments, Foreign currency exchange (gain) loss, Gain on legal settlement related to prior period operations, Project Orion deferred costs amortization, Net (gain) loss from discontinued operations, Impairment of related party receivable, Loss on put option, and Gain on sale of LATAM JV. We also adjust for the impact of Core FFO on our share of reconciling items for partially owned entities, and gain from disposition of partially owned entities. We believe that Core FFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it excludes the effects of certain items which can create significant earnings volatility, but which do not directly relate to our core business operations. We believe Core FFO can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods, while also providing a more meaningful predictor of future earnings potential.
However, because NAREIT FFO and Core FFO add back real estate depreciation and amortization and do not capture the level of maintenance capital expenditures necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, both of which have material economic impacts on our results from operations, we believe the utility of NAREIT FFO and Core FFO measures of our performance may be limited.
We calculate adjusted funds from operations, or Adjusted FFO, as Core FFO adjusted for the effects of Amortization of deferred financing costs and pension withdrawal liability, Amortization of below/above market leases, Straight-line rental expense adjustment, Deferred income tax (benefit) expense, Stock-based compensation expense, Non-real estate depreciation and amortization, and Maintenance capital expenditures. We also adjust for AFFO attributable to our share of reconciling items of partially owned entities and discontinued operations. We believe that Adjusted FFO is helpful to investors as a meaningful supplemental comparative performance measure of our ability to make incremental capital investments in our business and to assess our ability to fund distribution requirements from our operating activities.
FFO, Core FFO and Adjusted FFO are used by management, investors and industry analysts as supplemental measures of operating performance of equity REITs. FFO, Core FFO and Adjusted FFO should be evaluated along with U.S. GAAP net income and net income per diluted share (the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures) in evaluating our operating performance. FFO, Core FFO and Adjusted FFO do not represent net income or cash flows from operating activities in accordance with U.S. GAAP and are not indicative of our results of operations or cash flows from operating activities as disclosed in our consolidated statements of operations included in our quarterly and annual reports. FFO, Core FFO and Adjusted FFO should be considered as supplements, but not alternatives, to our net income or cash flows from operating activities as indicators of our operating performance. Moreover, other REITs may not calculate FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition or may interpret the NAREIT definition differently than we do. Accordingly, our FFO may not be comparable to FFO as calculated by other REITs. In addition, there is no industry definition of Core FFO or Adjusted FFO and, as a result, other REITs may also calculate Core FFO or Adjusted FFO, or other similarly-captioned metrics, in a manner different than we do. The table above reconciles FFO, Core FFO and Adjusted FFO to net (loss) income, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
We calculate EBITDA for Real Estate, or EBITDAre, in accordance with the standards established by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, defined as, net (loss) income before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization, net gain on sale of real estate, net of withholding taxes, and adjustment to reflect share of EBITDAre of partially owned entities. EBITDAre is a measure commonly used in our industry, and we present EBITDAre to enhance investor understanding of our operating performance. We believe that EBITDAre provides investors and analysts with a measure of operating results unaffected by differences in capital structures, capital investment cycles and useful life of related assets among otherwise comparable companies.
We also calculate our Core EBITDA as EBITDAre further adjusted for Acquisition, cyber incident and other, net, Loss (gain) from investments in partially owned entities, Impairment of indefinite and long-lived assets, Foreign currency exchange (gain) loss, Stock-based compensation expense ,Loss on debt extinguishment and termination of derivative instruments, (Gain) loss on other asset disposals, Gain on legal settlement related to prior period operations, Project Orion deferred costs amortization, Gain from sale of partially owned entities, Net (gain) loss from discontinued operations, Impairment of related party receivable, and Loss on put option.We believe that the presentation of Core EBITDA provides a measurement of our operations that is meaningful to investors because it excludes the effects of certain items that are otherwise included in EBITDAre but which we do not believe are indicative of our core business operations. We calculate Core EBITDA margin as Core EBITDA divided by revenues. EBITDAre and Core EBITDA are not measurements of financial performance under U.S. GAAP, and our EBITDAre and Core EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. You should not consider our EBITDAre and Core EBITDA as alternatives to net income or cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our calculations of EBITDAre and Core EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, including:
NOI is calculated as earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and excluding corporate Selling, general, and administrative expense; Acquisition, cyber incident, and other, net; Impairment of indefinite and long-lived assets; gain or loss on sale of real estate and all components of non-operating other income and expense. Management believes that this is a helpful metric to measure period to period operating performance of the business.

•these measures do not reflect our historical or future cash requirements for maintenance capital expenditures or growth and expansion capital expenditures;
•these measures do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
•these measures do not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our indebtedness;
•these measures do not reflect our tax expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes; and
•although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated will often have to be replaced in the future and these measures do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements.

We use the following non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental performance measures of our business: NAREIT FFO, Core FFO, Adjusted FFO, NAREIT EBITDAre, Core EBITDA, Core EBITDA margin, net debt to pro-forma Core EBITDA, contribution (‘NOI”) and margin, same store revenue and NOI, total real estate debt, total debt outstanding and maintenance capital expenditures.
Net debt to proforma Core EBITDA is calculated using total debt, plus deferred financing costs, less cash and cash equivalents, divided by pro-forma Core EBITDA. We calculate pro-forma Core EBITDA as Core EBITDA further adjusted for acquisitions, dispositions and for rent expense associated with lease buy-outs and lease exits. The pro-forma adjustment for acquisitions reflects the Core EBITDA for the period of time prior to acquisition. The pro-forma adjustment for leased facilities exited or purchased reflects the add-back for the related lease expense from the last year. The pro-forma adjustment for dispositions reduces Core EBITDA for the earnings of facilities disposed of or exited during the year, including the strategic exit of certain third-party managed business.
We define our “same store” population once annually at the beginning of the current calendar year. Our population includes properties owned or leased for the entirety of two comparable periods with at least twelve consecutive months of normalized operations prior to January 1 of the current calendar year. We define “normalized operations” as properties that have been open for operation or lease, after development or significant modification (e.g., expansion or rehabilitation subsequent to a natural disaster). Acquired properties are included in the “same store” population if owned by us as of the first business day of the prior calendar year (e.g. January 1, 2023) and are still owned by us as of the end of the current reporting period, unless the property is under development. The “same store” pool is also adjusted to remove properties that were sold or entered development subsequent to the beginning of the current calendar year. Beginning January of 2024, changes in ownership structure (e.g., purchase of a previously leased warehouse) no longer results in a facility being excluded from the same store population, as management believes that actively managing its real estate is normal course of operations. Additionally, management began to classify new developments (both conventional and automated facilities) as a component of the same store pool once the facility is considered fully operational and both inbounding and outbounding product for at least twelve consecutive months prior to January 1 of the current calendar year.
We calculate “same store revenue” as revenues for the same store population. We calculate “same store contribution (NOI)” as revenues for the same store population less its cost of operations (excluding any depreciation and amortization, impairment charges, corporate-level selling, general and administrative expenses, corporate-level acquisition, cyber incident and other, net and gain or loss on sale of real estate). In order to derive an appropriate measure of period-to-period operating performance, we also calculate our same store contribution (NOI) on a constant currency basis to remove the effects of foreign currency exchange rate movements by using the comparable prior period exchange rate to translate from local currency into U.S. dollars for both periods. We evaluate the performance of the warehouses we own or lease using a “same store” analysis, and we believe that same store contribution (NOI) is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it includes the operating performance from the population of properties that is consistent from period to period and also on a constant currency basis, thereby eliminating the effects of changes in the composition of our warehouse portfolio and currency fluctuations on performance measures. Same store contribution (NOI) is not a measurement of financial performance under U.S. GAAP. In addition, other companies providing temperature-controlled warehouse storage and handling and other warehouse services may not define same store or calculate same store contribution (NOI) in a manner consistent with our definition or calculation. Same store contribution (NOI) should be considered as a supplement, but not as an alternative, to our results calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
We define “maintenance capital expenditures” as capital expenditures made to extend the life of, and provide future economic benefit from, our existing temperature-controlled warehouse network and its existing supporting personal property and information technology. Maintenance capital expenditures include capital expenditures made to extend the life of, and provide future economic benefit from, our existing temperature-controlled warehouse network and its existing supporting personal property and information technology. Maintenance capital expenditures do not include acquisition costs contemplated when underwriting the purchase of a building or costs which are incurred to bring a building up to Americold’s operating standards.
We define “total real estate debt” as the aggregate of the following: mortgage notes, senior unsecured notes, term loans and borrowings under our revolving line of credit. We define “total debt outstanding” as the aggregate of the following: total real estate debt, sale-leaseback financing obligations and financing lease obligations.
