Recent Highlights

  • Same store revenue increased 4.1% for the third quarter of 2023 compared to the third quarter of 2022 and was negatively impacted by weaker than expected revenue performance in San Francisco and Seattle as well as the non-cash write-off of approximately $1.5 million in straight-line receivables due to the recent bankruptcy of Rite Aid. The Company revised its 2023 annual same store revenue growth guidance to 5.5% as further described in this release and in the Management Presentation referenced below.
  • Bad debt before the application of governmental rental assistance has improved substantially for the nine months ended September 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022, albeit slightly less than our prior expectations due to the timing associated with current eviction proceedings. See page 13 for additional details.
  • Same store expense growth for the third quarter of 2023 compared to the third quarter of 2022 was 3.1%. The Company also reaffirmed its full year 2023 same store expense growth at 4.25%.
  • During the third quarter of 2023, the Company acquired two suburban Atlanta apartment properties, consisting of 634 apartment units, for an aggregate acquisition price of approximately $179.7 million and sold a 166-unit apartment property in Seattle for approximately $60.1 million. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company sold three operating properties for a total of approximately $184.6 million.
  • The Company recently published its tenth annual Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) report highlighting Equity Residential's goals and accomplishments.

“Our East Coast portfolio performed very well in the quarter. Strong demand combined with low supply in Boston and New York and rapid absorption of supply in Washington, D.C. position these markets favorably going forward. While the East Coast outperformed our expectations, the San Francisco and Seattle markets underperformed due to lower recent job growth in our target affluent renter demographic and, together with the Rite Aid bankruptcy, led us to adjust guidance,” said Mark J. Parrell, Equity Residential’s President and CEO. “We are pleased with our progress in reducing our COVID era delinquency but the legal process is lengthy and uneven and we will likely end the year with modestly more delinquency than our previous goal. As we think about 2024 operating performance, continued demand from our well-employed renter demographic and limited new supply in most of our markets should lead to another year of solid same store revenue growth.”

Full Year 2023 Guidance

The Company has revised its guidance for its full year 2023 same store operating performance, EPS, FFO per share and Normalized FFO per share as listed below:

The change in the full year 2023 EPS guidance range is due primarily to higher expected property sale gains, partially offset by lower expected Residential and Non-Residential same store NOI and higher expected depreciation expense.

The change in the full year 2023 Normalized FFO per share guidance range is due primarily to lower expected Residential and Non-Residential same store NOI.

The Company has a glossary of defined terms and related reconciliations of Non-GAAP financial measures on pages 29 through 34 of this release. Reconciliations and definitions of FFO and Normalized FFO are provided on pages 7, 31 and 32 of this release.

Investment Activity

The Company acquired two operating properties, both in suburban Atlanta, during the third quarter of 2023 - a recently completed 344-unit apartment property in Suwanee, which is currently in lease up, for approximately $98.0 million at a stabilized Acquisition Cap Rate of 5.4% and a 290-unit property in Decatur built in 2019, for approximately $81.7 million at an Acquisition Cap Rate of 5.1%. During the first nine months of 2023, the Company has acquired four operating properties, consisting of 1,183 apartment units, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $366.3 million at a weighted average Acquisition Cap Rate of 5.5%.

Also during the third quarter of 2023, the Company sold a 166-unit property in Seattle for approximately $60.1 million at a Disposition Yield of 5.4%, generating an Unlevered IRR of 7.5%. During the first nine months of 2023, the Company sold eight properties, consisting of 413 apartment units, for an aggregate sale price of approximately $195.4 million at a weighted average Disposition Yield of 5.3%, generating an Unlevered IRR of 8.5%. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company sold three properties located in our West Coast markets (San Francisco, Seattle and Los Angeles), consisting of 499 apartment units, for an aggregate sale price of approximately $184.6 million at a weighted average Disposition Yield of 5.8%.

Capital Markets Activity

In August 2023, the Company closed on secured loans totaling $550.0 million. The Company previously disclosed the rate lock on these loans in July 2023. After the effect of the Company’s hedges, the economic rate on these ten-year loans is approximately 4.7%. The proceeds from these loans were used, along with funding from the Company’s Commercial Paper Program, to paydown the $800.0 million secured debt pool that was due to mature in November 2023 and carried an interest rate of 4.21%. After this paydown, the Company has no significant debt maturities, other than commercial paper, which is supported by its revolving credit facility due 2027, until June 2025.

Fourth Quarter 2023 Guidance

The Company has established guidance ranges for the fourth quarter of 2023 EPS, FFO per share and Normalized FFO per share as listed below:

The difference between the third quarter of 2023 actual EPS of $0.45 and the fourth quarter of 2023 EPS guidance midpoint of $0.83 is due primarily to higher expected property sale gains and the items described below.

During the third quarter of 2023, the Company recorded a non-cash write-off of approximately $1.5 million in straight-line receivables due to the recent bankruptcy of Rite Aid.

The quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year changes were primarily driven by the following factors:

 

Real estate taxes – Increase due to modest escalation in rates and assessed values.

 

On-site payroll – Increase due primarily to fewer staffing vacancies compared to the same periods of 2022 and elevated employee benefit costs, partially offset by the impact of innovation initiatives.

 

Utilities – Quarter-over-quarter decrease primarily driven by lower commodity prices for gas and electric. Year-over-year increase primarily driven by higher commodity prices for gas earlier in the year and higher water, sewer and trash expense.

 

Repairs and maintenance – Quarter-over-quarter increase primarily driven by continued wage pressure, particularly due to higher minimum wage on contracted services. Year-over-year increase was also impacted by increased outsourcing due to higher internal staffing utilization to address issues from California rain storms that occurred earlier this year.

 

Insurance – Increase due to higher premiums on property insurance renewal due to challenging conditions in the insurance market.

 

Other on-site operating expenses – Increase primarily driven by higher property-related legal expenses.
