Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements as contained within the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, they do not contain all information and footnotes required by GAAP for annual financial statements pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. Such unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes are the representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 13, 2023. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which are normal and recurring, necessary to fairly state the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows. All significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 included herein was derived from the audited financial statements. Noncontrolling Interests in the Operating Partnership The Company accounts for the noncontrolling interests in its Operating Partnership in accordance with the related accounting guidance. Due to the Company's control of the Operating Partnership through its general partnership interest therein and the limited rights of the limited partners, the Operating Partnership, including its wholly-owned subsidiaries, are consolidated with the Company, and the limited partner interests not held by the Company are reflected as noncontrolling interests in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and statements of equity. Other than the noncontrolling interests related to an “UPREIT” transaction completed in January 2022, as discussed in Note 11, all noncontrolling interests currently represent non-voting, non-distribution accruing interests with no allocation of profits or losses, but have various conversion rights to obtain future rights to distributions and allocation of profits and losses as discussed in Note 11. Use of Estimates The preparation of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates are based on historical experience and, in some cases, assumptions based on current and future market experience. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Real Estate Acquisitions In accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, the Company evaluates each real estate acquisition to determine whether to account for the acquisition as an asset acquisition or a business combination. When it concludes that substantially all of the fair value of the gross asset is concentrated in a single identifiable asset rather than an integrated set of activities and assets, the Company recognizes the acquisition of a real estate asset rather than a business combination, and allocates the acquisition cost to tangible and intangible assets based on their relative fair values. Revenue Recognition The Company accounts for leases in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (“Topic 842”), and the related FASB ASU Nos. 2018-10, 2018-11, 2018-20 and 2019-01, which provide practical expedients, technical corrections and improvements for certain aspects of ASU No. 2016-02 (collectively “Topic 842”). As a lessor, the Company's leases with tenants generally provide for the lease of real estate properties, as well as common area maintenance, property taxes and other recoverable costs. Rental income and tenant reimbursements and other lease related property income that meet the requirements of the practical expedient provided by ASU No. 2018-11 have been combined under rental income in the Company's accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company recognizes rental income from tenants under operating leases on a straight-line basis over the noncancelable term of the lease when collectability of such amounts is reasonably assured. Recognition of rental income on a straight-line basis includes the effects of rental abatements, lease incentives and fixed and determinable increases in lease payments over the lease term. If the lease provides for tenant improvements, management of the Company determines whether the tenant improvements, for accounting purposes, are owned by the tenant or by the Company. When the Company is the owner of the tenant improvements, the tenant is not considered to have taken physical possession or have control of the physical use of the leased asset until the tenant improvements are substantially completed. When the tenant is the owner of the tenant improvements, any tenant improvement allowance (including amounts that the tenant can take in the form of cash or a credit against its rent) that is funded is treated as a lease incentive and amortized as a reduction of revenue over the lease term. The Company records tenant reimbursements on a gross basis in instances when its tenants reimburse the Company for lessor costs, including real estate taxes, which the Company incurs. Conversely, the Company records lessor costs on a net basis when these costs are paid directly by the Company's tenants to suppliers and service providers, including taxing authorities, on the Company's behalf. To the extent any tenant responsible for these obligations under the applicable lease defaults on such lease, or if it is deemed probable that the tenant will fail to pay for these obligations, the Company records a liability for such obligations. The Company evaluates the collectability of rents and other receivables on a regular basis based on factors including, among others, payment history, credit rating, the asset type, and current economic conditions. If the Company’s evaluation of these factors indicates it may not recover the full value of the receivable, it provides an allowance against the portion of the receivable that it estimates may not be recovered. This analysis requires the Company to determine whether there are factors indicating a receivable may not be fully collectible and to estimate the amount of the receivable that may not be collected. Bad Debts and Allowances for Tenant and Deferred Rent Receivables The Company's determination of the adequacy of its allowances for tenant receivables includes a binary assessment of whether or not the amounts due under a tenant’s lease agreement are probable of collection. For such amounts that are deemed probable of collection, revenue continues to be recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For such amounts that are deemed not probable of collection, revenue is recorded as the lesser of (i) the amount which would be recognized on a straight-line basis or (ii) cash that has been received from the tenant, with any tenant and deferred rent receivable balances charged as a direct write-off against rental income in the period of the change in the collectability determination. In addition, for tenant and deferred rent receivables deemed probable of collection, the Company also may record an allowance under other authoritative GAAP depending upon the Company's evaluation of the individual receivables, specific credit enhancements, current economic conditions, and other relevant factors. Such allowances are recorded as increases or decreases through rental income in the Company's accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. With respect to tenants in bankruptcy, management makes estimates of the expected recovery of pre-petition and post-petition claims in assessing the estimated collectability of the related receivable. In some cases, the ultimate resolution of these claims can exceed one year. When a tenant is in bankruptcy, the Company will record a bad debt allowance for the tenant’s receivable balance and generally will not recognize subsequent rental income until cash is received or until the tenant is no longer in bankruptcy and has the ability to make rental payments. Gain or Loss on Sale of Real Estate Investments The Company recognizes gain or loss on sale of real estate property when the Company has executed a contract for sale of the property, transferred controlling financial interest in the property to the buyer and determined that it is probable that the Company will collect substantially all of the consideration for the property. The Company's real estate property sale transactions during the six months ended June 30, 2022 met these criteria at closing. When properties are sold, operating results of the properties remain in continuing operations, and any associated gain or loss from the disposition is included in gain or loss on sale of real estate investments in the Company’s accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. Impairment of Investment in Real Estate Properties The Company monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of investments in real estate properties may not be recoverable. When indicators of potential impairment are present that indicate that the carrying amounts of investments in real estate properties may not be recoverable, management assesses whether the carrying value of the investments in real estate properties will be recovered through the future undiscounted operating cash flows expected from the use of and eventual disposition of the property. If, based on the analysis, the Company does not believe that it will be able to recover the carrying value of the investments in real estate properties, the Company records an impairment charge to the extent the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the investments in real estate properties. Treasury Stock The Company accounts for repurchased shares of its Class C common stock as treasury stock. Treasury shares are recorded at cost and are included as a component of equity in the Company's accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Fair Value Disclosures Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an existing price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy, which is based on three levels of inputs, the first two of which are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value, is as follows: Level 1: quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2: inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and Level 3: unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. The fair value for certain financial instruments is derived using valuation techniques that involve significant management judgment. The price transparency of financial instruments is a key determinant of the degree of judgment involved in determining the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments. Financial instruments for which actively quoted prices or pricing parameters are available and for which markets contain orderly transactions will generally have a higher degree of price transparency than financial instruments for which markets are inactive or consist of non-orderly trades. The Company evaluates several factors when determining if a market is inactive or when market transactions are not orderly. The following is a summary of the methods and assumptions used by management in estimating the fair value of each class of financial instrument for which it is practicable to estimate the fair value: Cash and cash equivalents, tenant receivables, prepaid expenses and other assets and accounts payable, accrued and other liabilities: These balances approximate their fair values due to their short maturities. Derivative Instruments: The Company’s derivative instruments are presented at fair value in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The valuation of these instruments is determined using a proprietary model that utilizes observable inputs. As such, the Company classifies these inputs as Level 2 inputs. The proprietary model uses the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, as well as observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and volatility. The fair values of interest rate swaps are estimated using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted fixed cash payments and the discounted expected variable cash receipts. The variable cash receipts are based on an expectation of interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves. In addition, credit valuation adjustments, which consider the impact of any credit risks to the contracts, are incorporated in the fair values to account for potential nonperformance risk. Credit facility: The fair values of the Company’s credit facility approximate the carrying value as their interest rate and other terms are comparable to those available in the marketplace for similar credit facilities. Mortgage notes payable: The fair values of the Company’s mortgage notes payable are estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on management’s estimates of current market interest rates for instruments with similar characteristics, including remaining loan term, loan-to-value ratio, type of collateral and other credit enhancements. Additionally, when determining the fair value of liabilities in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for an identical liability is not available, the Company measures fair value using (i) a valuation technique that uses the quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset or quoted prices for similar liabilities when traded as assets or (ii) another valuation technique that is consistent with the principles of fair value measurement, such as the income approach or the market approach. The Company classifies these inputs as Level 3 inputs. Related party transactions: The Company has concluded that it is not practical to determine the estimated fair value of related party transactions. Disclosure rules for fair value measurements require that for financial instruments for which it is not practicable to estimate fair value, information pertinent to those instruments be disclosed. Further information as to these financial transactions with related parties is included in Note 9. Real Estate Investments Held for Sale The Company generally considers a real estate investment to be “held for sale” when the following criteria are met as of the balance sheet date: (i) management commits to a plan to sell the property, (ii) the property is available for sale immediately, (iii) the property is actively being marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value, (iv) the sale of the property within one year is considered probable and (v) significant changes to the plan to sell are not expected. Real estate that is held for sale and its related assets are classified as “real estate investments held for sale, net” and “other assets related to real estate investments held for sale,” respectively, in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Other liabilities related to real estate investments held for sale are classified as “liabilities related to real estate investments held for sale” in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Real estate investments classified as held for sale are no longer depreciated and are reported at the lower of their carrying value or their estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell. Operating results of properties that were classified as held for sale in the ordinary course of business are included in continuing operations in the Company’s accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities The Company enters into derivative instruments for risk management purposes to hedge its exposure to cash flow variability caused by changing interest rates on its variable rate debt. The Company does not enter into derivatives for speculative purposes. The Company records derivative instruments at fair value on its accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. If the Company elects to designate a derivative in a hedging relationship and the hedging relationship satisfies the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting, the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge and the unrealized holding gain or loss on the interest rate swap is presented in comprehensive income (loss) and accumulated other comprehensive income in the Company's accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. If the derivative instrument does not meet the hedge accounting criteria, the change in the fair value of the derivative is recorded as a gain or loss on the interest rate swap and included in interest expense, net of derivative settlements and unrealized gain on interest rate swaps in the Company's accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company has entered into interest rate swaps as a fixed rate payer to mitigate its exposure to rising interest rates on its variable rate term loan. The value of interest rate swaps is primarily impacted by interest rates, market expectations about interest rates, and the remaining life of the instrument. In general, increases in interest rates, or anticipated increases in interest rates, will increase the value of the fixed rate payer position and decrease the value of the variable rate payer position. As the remaining life of the interest rate swap decreases, the value of both positions will generally move towards zero. The Company may enter into derivative contracts that are intended to economically hedge certain risks, even though hedge accounting does not apply or the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting. Restricted Operating Partnership Unit Awards Historically, the fair values of the restricted Operating Partnership unit awards issued or granted by the Company were based on an estimated NAV per share (unaudited) of the Company’s common stock on the date of issuance or grant, adjusted for an illiquidity discount due to the illiquid nature of the underlying equity prior to the listing of the Company's Class C common stock on the NYSE. The fair value of future grants of restricted Operating Partnership unit awards will be determined based on the NYSE's market closing price of the Company's Class C common stock on the date of grant. Operating Partnership units issued as purchase consideration in connection with the Self-Management Transaction and UPREIT Transaction (each as defined and discussed in Note 11) are recorded in equity under noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership in the Company's accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and statements of equity. For units granted to employees of the Company that are not included in the purchase consideration, the fair value of the award is amortized using the straight-line method over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the vesting period (see Note 11). The Company has elected to record forfeitures as they occur. The Company determines the accounting classification of equity instruments (e.g. restricted stock units) that are issued as purchase consideration or part of the purchase consideration in a business combination, as either liability or equity, by first assessing whether the equity instruments meet liability classification in accordance with ASC 480-10, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity (“ASC 480-10”), and then in accordance with ASC 815-40, Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock (“ASC 815-40”). Under ASC 480-10, equity instruments are classified as liabilities if the equity instruments are mandatorily redeemable, obligate the issuer to settle the equity instruments or the underlying shares by paying cash or other assets, or must or may require an unconditional obligation that must be settled by issuing a variable number of shares. If equity instruments do not meet liability classification under ASC 480-10, the Company assesses the requirements under ASC 815-40, which states that contracts that require or may require the issuer to settle the contract for cash are liabilities recorded at fair value, irrespective of the likelihood of the transaction occurring that triggers the net cash settlement feature. If the equity instruments do not require liability classification under ASC 815-40, in order to conclude equity classification, the Company assesses whether the equity instruments are indexed to its common stock and whether the equity instruments are classified as equity under ASC 815-40 or other applicable GAAP guidance. After all relevant assessments are made, the Company concludes whether the equity instruments are classified as liability or equity. Liability classified equity instruments are required to be accounted for at fair value both on the date of issuance and on subsequent accounting period ending dates, with all changes in fair value after the issuance date recorded in the statements of operations as a gain or loss. Equity classified equity instruments are accounted for at fair value on the issuance date with no changes in fair value recognized after the issuance date. Immaterial Error Corrections During the first quarter of 2023, management determined that its prior treatment of property taxes in those instances where the Company was responsible for paying property taxes and subsequently seeking tenant reimbursement should be treated differently than those instances where property taxes were paid directly by tenants to taxing authorities. Management determined that property taxes paid directly by tenants to taxing authorities should not have been recorded in the Company’s accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the prior year periods in accordance with ASU 2018-20 “Leases (Topic 842) - Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors.” Accordingly, the Company’s accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 reflect an adjustment to reduce rental income and a corresponding reduction in property expenses of $531,670 and $1,136,397, respectively, for such property taxes and the Company's consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 reflects a reduction in tenant receivables with a corresponding reduction in accounts payable, accrued and other liabilities of $1,596,127. The corrections did not affect net income (loss) or net income (loss) per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. During the fourth quarter of 2022, management determined that straight-line rents receivable write-offs associated with real estate investments previously sold should be reclassified as a component of the related gain on sale of the real estate investments rather than as an offset to rental income as previously presented in the Company's statements of operations. Accordingly, the Company’s accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 reflect an increase in rental income and a corresponding reduction in the gain on sale of real estate investments of $282,030 and $807,721, respectively. The reclassification did not affect net income (loss) or net income (loss) per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. Recent Accounting Pronouncements New Accounting Standards Recently Issued or Adopted There were no new accounting standards recently issued or adopted during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 that will materially affect or affected the Company's consolidated financial statements or operations.
