Southfield, MI, Feb. 20, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sun Communities, Inc. (NYSE: SUI) (the "Company" or "SUI"), a real estate investment trust ("REIT") that owns and operates, or has an interest in, manufactured housing ("MH") and recreational vehicle ("RV") communities and marinas (collectively, the "properties"), today reported its fourth quarter and full year results for 2023.
Financial Results for the Quarter and Year Ended December 31, 2023
- For the quarter ended December 31, 2023, net loss attributable to common shareholders was $80.9 million, or $0.65 per diluted share, compared to net income attributable to common shareholders of $4.7 million, or $0.04 per diluted share for the same period in 2022.
- For the year ended December 31, 2023, net loss attributable to common shareholders was $213.3 million, or $1.72 per diluted share, compared to net income attributable to common shareholders of $242.0 million, or $2.00 per diluted share, for the same period in 2022.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
- Core Funds from Operations ("Core FFO") for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2023, were $1.34 per common share and dilutive convertible securities ("Share") and $7.10 per Share, respectively.
- Same Property Net Operating Income ("NOI") increased by 9.6% and 7.3% for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2023, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2022.
"The fourth quarter culminated a year of solid real property performance. Same property NOI surpassed our expectations and highlights the resilience of our portfolio, supported by the robust demand and limited supply fundamentals of our properties," said Gary A. Shiffman, Chairman, President and CEO. "We realized solid occupancy gains in our manufactured housing and RV communities, high levels of conversion of transient to annual RV sites and continued double digit NOI increases in our marinas. In the UK, although real property performance remains strong, macro headwinds continue to impact home sales. We are focused on realizing the consistent growth our portfolio provides and delivering reliable results from our real property assets. By remaining disciplined in pursuing new acquisition and development activity, de-leveraging our balance sheet, and maximizing the efficiency of our operating platform, we are confident in our strategic positioning to re-accelerate earnings growth in the coming years."

During the quarter ended December 31, 2023, the Company expanded its existing communities by over 30 sites and delivered over 75 sites at one ground-up development property.
Subsequent to the quarter, the Company acquired one land parcel zoned and entitled for MH development, located in the U.S. for an aggregate purchase price of $11.7 million.
BALANCE SHEET, CAPITAL MARKETS ACTIVITY AND OTHER ITEMS
As of December 31, 2023, the Company had $7.8 billion in debt outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of 4.2% and a weighted average maturity of 6.8 years. At December 31, 2023, the Company's net debt to trailing twelve-month Recurring EBITDA ratio was 6.1 times.
During the quarter, the Company:
- Entered into new mortgage term loans for $252.8 million in aggregate that mature in November 2030 and bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.49%. The proceeds were used to repay $117.8 million of mortgage term loans that matured in 2023 and pay down amounts drawn under the Company's senior credit facility.
- Sold its 41.8 million share position in Ingenia Communities Group (ASX: INA), generating $102.5 million of proceeds, net of underwriting and other fees, with a realized loss of $8.0 million. The net proceeds were used to pay down amounts drawn under the Company's senior credit facility. The Company continues to own a 50% interest in Sungenia, a joint venture formed between the Company and the Ingenia Communities Group in November 2018.
- Completed a transaction with an unrelated entity, whereby the Company received net cash proceeds of $53.4 million in exchange for relinquishing right, title and interest in certain MH installment notes receivable. Based on the transaction structure, which in the event of a borrower default allows the Company to repurchase the underlying homes collateralizing the notes, requirements for sale accounting were not met and the notes receivable continue to be recognized on the Company's consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2023, and referred to as collateralized receivables. The proceeds were used to pay down borrowings outstanding under the Company's senior credit facility.
- Simplified the structure of certain of its consolidated variable interest entities, Sun NG Whitewater RV Resorts LLC, Sun NG Beaver Brook LLC, Sun NG RV Resorts and four standalone affiliates (collectively "Sun NG") in a transaction with the Company's joint venture partner in Sun NG:
- Sold the Company's majority equity interests in three properties for proceeds of $166.1 million, which resulted in a gain on disposition of $13.2 million;
- Acquired all of the joint venture partner's noncontrolling equity interests in 14 properties and a significant portion of the noncontrolling equity interests in five stand-alone joint venture properties, for $149.5 million; and
- Settled a total of $39.2 million of preferred equity interests, including $35.2 million of mandatorily redeemable equity interests classified as Unsecured debt, and issued Series L preferred OP units valued at $2.0 million.
- Sold the Company's majority equity interests in three properties for proceeds of $166.1 million, which resulted in a gain on disposition of $13.2 million;
- Sold its investment in Rezplot Systems LLC ("Rezplot"), a nonconsolidated affiliate. Rezplot is an RV reservation software technology company operating under the Campspot brand. Total proceeds of $27.5 million included the settlement of notes receivable from Rezplot with a recorded balance of $12.2 million and resulted in a gain on sale of $15.3 million.
Subsequent to the quarter, the Company:
- Issued $500.0 million of senior unsecured notes with an interest rate of 5.5% and a five-year term, due January 15, 2029, and received net proceeds of $495.4 million, after deducting underwriters' discounts and estimated offering expenses. The majority of the net proceeds were used to pay down borrowings outstanding under the Company's senior credit facility, reducing its floating-rate debt to total debt to approximately 10%.
- Reached an agreement to sell two operating communities located in Florida and Arizona with 533 aggregated developed sites for total cash consideration of approximately $53.0 million. The sale is expected to close during the quarter ending March 31, 2024, with a total estimated gain of approximately $7.0 million.
UK Note Receivable
As previously announced, the Company completed an administration process related to three real estate assets that collateralized the majority of a note receivable extended to Royale Holdings Group HoldCo Limited ("Royale Life"). On December 28, 2023, the Company acquired the assets through a credit bid, a potential outcome that management had previously discussed. During the quarter, the Company engaged third party valuation specialists to appraise the assets in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820 - Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures and recognized such assets at fair value totaling $263.8 million, as Investment Property on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2023. There was no resulting remeasurement adjustment.
The Company also previously announced that the note receivable was further collateralized by a first priority security interest in three MH manufacturers in the UK and that it was continuing to work through courses of action in connection with such collateral. These assets were remeasured during the fourth quarter which resulted in an unfavorable adjustment of $102.9 million.
Subsequent to quarter end, the Company completed a receivership process related to the manufacturers. The receivers sold such assets for total consideration of $10.7 million, resulting in cash proceeds to the Company of approximately $7.0 million, net of non-cash consideration and fees. The sale of these assets resulted in an incremental fair value remeasurement adjustment of $0.8 million.
Sandy Bay Update
As previously disclosed, the Company had agreed to sell Sandy Bay, an MH operating community in the UK. The property had been classified as held for sale on its Consolidated Balance Sheets at September 30, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, the asset was reclassified as held for use and the Company is now operating the property.
Park Holidays Goodwill Impairment
During year end audit procedures, the Company reviewed controls relating to the valuation of its Park Holidays business and associated goodwill. In connection with the review, the Company concluded that changes in certain triggering factors relevant to the valuation of the Park Holidays business, including financial projections and increased interest rates, should have been taken into account when preparing the Company's interim financial statements for the quarters ended March 31, 2023, June 30, 2023, and September 30, 2023. The total non-cash goodwill impairment recognized during 2023 was $369.9 million. The Company intends to restate such interim financial statements in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.
2024 Distributions
The Company's Board of Directors has approved setting the 2024 annual distribution rate at $3.76 per common share and unit, an increase of $0.04, or 1.1%, over the current annual dividend rate of $3.72 per common share and unit for 2023. This increase will begin with the first quarter distribution to be paid in April 2024. While the Board of Directors has adopted the new annual distribution policy, the amount of each quarterly distribution on the Company's common stock will be subject to approval by the Board of Directors.
New Directors
On February 15, 2024, the Company added Jerry Ehlinger and Craig A. Leupold to its Board of Directors as independent directors. Mr. Ehlinger and Mr. Leupold bring new and thoughtful real estate industry perspectives to the Company.

Capital Expenditures and Investment Activity - The Company classifies its investments in properties into the following categories:
- Recurring Capital Expenditures - Property recurring capital expenditures are necessary to maintain asset quality, including purchasing and replacing items used to operate the communities and marinas. Recurring capital expenditures at the Company's MH and RV properties include major road, driveway and pool improvements; clubhouse renovations; adding or replacing streetlights; playground equipment; signage; maintenance facilities; manager housing and property vehicles. Recurring capital expenditures at the Company's marinas include dredging, dock repairs and improvements, and equipment maintenance and upgrades. The minimum capitalized amount is five hundred dollars.
- Non-Recurring Capital Expenditures - The following investment and reinvestment activities are non-recurring in nature:
- Lot Modifications - Lot modification capital expenditures are incurred to modify the foundational structures required to set a new home after a previous home has been removed. These expenditures are necessary to create a revenue stream from a new site renter and often improve the quality of the community. Other lot modification expenditures include land improvements added to annual RV sites to aid in the conversion of transient RV guests to annual contracts. See page 12 for move-out rates.
- Growth Projects - Growth projects consist of revenue-generating or expense-reducing activities at the properties. These include, but are not limited to, utility efficiency and renewable energy projects, site, slip or amenity upgrades, such as the addition of a garage, shed or boat lift, and other special capital projects that substantiate an incremental rental increase.
- Rebranding - Rebranding includes new signage at the Company's RV communities and costs of building an RV mobile application and updated website.
- Acquisitions - Total acquisition investments represent the purchase price paid for operating properties (detailed for the current calendar year on page 13), the purchase price paid for land parcels for future ground-up development and expansions activities, and any capital improvements identified during due diligence needed to bring acquired properties up to the Company's operating standards.
- Lot Modifications - Lot modification capital expenditures are incurred to modify the foundational structures required to set a new home after a previous home has been removed. These expenditures are necessary to create a revenue stream from a new site renter and often improve the quality of the community. Other lot modification expenditures include land improvements added to annual RV sites to aid in the conversion of transient RV guests to annual contracts. See page 12 for move-out rates.
Capital improvements subsequent to acquisition often require 24 to 36 months to complete after closing and include upgrading clubhouses; landscaping; new street light systems; new mail delivery systems; pool renovations including larger decks, heaters and furniture; new maintenance facilities; lot modifications; and new signage including main signs and internal road signs.
For the year ended December 31, 2023, the components of total acquisition investment are as follows (in millions):

Same Property - The Company defines Same Properties as those the Company has owned and operated continuously since at least January 1, 2022. Same properties exclude ground-up development properties, acquired properties and properties sold after December 31, 2021. The Same Property data may change from time-to-time depending on acquisitions, dispositions, management discretion, significant transactions or unique situations.
Secured borrowings on collateralized receivables - This is a transferred asset transaction which has been classified as collateralized receivables and the cash received from this transaction has been classified as secured borrowings. The interest income and interest expense accrue at the same amount. The Company elected to fair value the collateralized receivables and the secured borrowings under ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures." As a result, the balance of collateralized receivables and related secured borrowings are net of fair value adjustments.
Securities - The Company had the following securities outstanding as of December 31, 2023:

Non-GAAP Supplemental Measures
Investors and analysts following the real estate industry use non-GAAP supplemental performance measures, including net operating income ("NOI"), earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") and funds from operations ("FFO") to assess REITs. The Company believes that NOI, EBITDA and FFO are appropriate measures given their wide use by and relevance to investors and analysts. Additionally, NOI, EBITDA and FFO are commonly used in various ratios, pricing multiples, yields and returns and valuation calculations used to measure financial position, performance and value.
NOI provides a measure of rental operations that does not factor in depreciation, amortization and non-property specific expenses such as general and administrative expenses.
EBITDA provides a further measure to evaluate ability to incur and service debt; EBITDA also provides further measures to evaluate the Company's ability to fund dividends and other cash needs.
FFO, reflecting the assumption that real estate values rise or fall with market conditions, principally adjusts for the effects of GAAP depreciation and amortization of real estate assets.
- Net Operating Income ("NOI")
- Total Portfolio NOI - The Company calculates NOI by subtracting property operating expenses and real estate taxes from operating property revenues. NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Company believes is helpful to investors as a supplemental measure of operating performance because it is an indicator of the return on property investment and provides a method of comparing property performance over time. The Company uses NOI as a key measure when evaluating performance and growth of particular properties and / or groups of properties. The principal limitation of NOI is that it excludes depreciation, amortization, interest expense and non-property specific expenses such as general and administrative expenses, all of which are significant costs. Therefore, NOI is a measure of the operating performance of the properties of the Company rather than of the Company overall. The Company believes that NOI provides enhanced comparability for investor evaluation of properties performance and growth over time.

Therefore, NOI is a measure of the operating performance of the properties of the Company rather than of the Company overall. The Company believes that NOI provides enhanced comparability for investor evaluation of properties performance and growth over time.
The Company believes that GAAP net income (loss) is the most directly comparable measure to NOI. NOI should not be considered to be an alternative to GAAP net income (loss) as an indication of the Company's financial performance or GAAP cash flow from operating activities as a measure of the Company's liquidity; nor is it indicative of funds available for the Company's cash needs, including its ability to make cash distributions. Because of the inclusion of items such as interest, depreciation and amortization, the use of GAAP net income (loss) as a performance measure is limited as these items may not accurately reflect the actual change in market value of a property, in the case of depreciation and in the case of interest, may not necessarily be linked to the operating performance of a real estate asset, as it is often incurred at a parent company level and not at a property level.
- Same Property NOI - This is a key management tool used when evaluating performance and growth of the Company's Same Property portfolio. The Company believes that Same Property NOI is helpful to investors as a supplemental comparative performance measure of the income generated from the Same property portfolio from one period to the next. Same Property NOI does not include the revenues and expenses related to home sales, service, retail, dining and entertainment activities at the properties.
- Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA")
- EBITDAre - NAREIT refers to EBITDA as "EBITDAre" and calculates it as GAAP net income (loss), plus interest expense, plus income tax expense, plus depreciation and amortization, plus or minus losses or gains on the disposition of depreciated property (including losses or gains on change of control), plus impairment write-downs of depreciated property and of investments in nonconsolidated affiliates caused by a decrease in value of depreciated property in the affiliate, and adjustments to reflect the entity's share of EBITDAre of nonconsolidated affiliates. EBITDAre is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Company uses to evaluate its ability to incur and service debt, fund dividends and other cash needs and cover fixed costs. Investors utilize EBITDAre as a supplemental measure to evaluate and compare investment quality and enterprise value of REITs. Investors utilize EBITDAre as a supplemental measure to evaluate and compare investment quality and enterprise value of REITs.
- Recurring EBITDA - The Company also uses EBITDAre excluding certain gain and loss items that management considers unrelated to measurement of the Company's performance on a basis that is independent of capital structure ("Recurring EBITDA"). The Company believes that GAAP net income (loss) is the most directly comparable measure to EBITDAre. EBITDAre is not intended to be used as a measure of the Company's cash generated by operations or its dividend-paying capacity, and should therefore not replace GAAP net income (loss) as an indication of the Company's financial performance or GAAP cash flow from operating, investing and financing activities as measures of liquidity.
- EBITDAre - NAREIT refers to EBITDA as "EBITDAre" and calculates it as GAAP net income (loss), plus interest expense, plus income tax expense, plus depreciation and amortization, plus or minus losses or gains on the disposition of depreciated property (including losses or gains on change of control), plus impairment write-downs of depreciated property and of investments in nonconsolidated affiliates caused by a decrease in value of depreciated property in the affiliate, and adjustments to reflect the entity's share of EBITDAre of nonconsolidated affiliates.

Investors utilize EBITDAre as a supplemental measure to evaluate and compare investment quality and enterprise value of REITs.
- Funds from Operations ("FFO")
- FFO - NAREIT defines FFO as GAAP net income (loss), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable operating property, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization, real estate related impairments, and after adjustments for nonconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure that management believes is a useful supplemental measure of the Company's operating performance. By excluding gains and losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets, real estate related impairment and real estate asset depreciation and amortization (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates), FFO provides a performance measure that, when compared period-over-period, reflects the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs, providing perspective not readily apparent from GAAP net income (loss). Management believes the use of FFO has been beneficial in improving the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and making comparisons of REIT operating results more meaningful.
- Core FFO - In addition to FFO, the Company uses FFO excluding certain gain and loss items that management considers unrelated to the operational and financial performance of the Company's core business ("Core FFO"). The Company believes that Core FFO provides enhanced comparability for investor evaluations of period-over-period results.
- FFO - NAREIT defines FFO as GAAP net income (loss), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable operating property, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization, real estate related impairments, and after adjustments for nonconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure that management believes is a useful supplemental measure of the Company's operating performance. By excluding gains and losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets, real estate related impairment and real estate asset depreciation and amortization (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates), FFO provides a performance measure that, when compared period-over-period, reflects the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs, providing perspective not readily apparent from GAAP net income (loss). Management believes the use of FFO has been beneficial in improving the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and making comparisons of REIT operating results more meaningful.
The Company believes that GAAP net income (loss) is the most directly comparable measure to FFO. The principal limitation of FFO is that it does not replace GAAP net income (loss) as a financial performance measure or GAAP cash flow from operating activities as a measure of the Company's liquidity. Because FFO excludes significant economic components of GAAP net income (loss) including depreciation and amortization, FFO should be used as a supplement to GAAP net income (loss) and not as an alternative to it. Furthermore, FFO is not intended as a measure of a REIT's ability to meet debt principal repayments and other cash requirements, nor as a measure of working capital. FFO is calculated in accordance with the Company's interpretation of standards established by NAREIT, which may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that interpret the NAREIT definition differently.
