General and administrative expenses include the impact of the Companys entry into the marina asset class. The marina portfolio is operated as an independent wholly-owned subsidiary retaining its own senior management, property management and back office operations. As significant growth potential through the consolidation of the highly fragmented marina industry is anticipated, costs associated with scaling to effectively operate a larger portfolio are required. As a general practice, marina acquisitions are underwritten with an expected incremental general and administrative cost of 3.0 percent of revenues.

Footnotes and Definitions



-- Investors in and analysts following the real estate industry utilize funds from operations (FFO), net operating income (NOI), and earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) as supplemental performance measures. The Company believes that FFO, NOI, and EBITDA are appropriate measures given their wide use by and relevance to investors and analysts. Additionally, FFO, NOI, and EBITDA are commonly used in various ratios, pricing multiples, yields and returns and valuation calculations used to measure financial position, performance and value. FFO, reflecting the assumption that real estate values rise or fall with market conditions, principally adjusts for the effects of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) depreciation and amortization of real estate assets.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 and to fund dividends and other cash needs.

FFO is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT) 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 Companys operating performance. By excluding gains and losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets, impairment and excluding 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 also uses FFO excluding certain gain and loss items that management considers unrelated to the operational and financial performance of our core business (Core FFO). The Company believes that Core FFO provides enhanced comparability for investor evaluations of period-over-period results.

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 performance measure or GAAP cash flow from operations as a liquidity measure. 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. Further, FFO is not intended as a measure of a REITs ability to meet debt principal repayments and other cash requirements, nor as a measure of working capital. FFO is calculated in accordance with the Companys interpretation of standards established by NAREIT, which may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that interpret the NAREIT definition differently.

NOI is derived from revenues minus property operating expenses and real estate taxes. 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 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 Companys financial performance or GAAP cash flow from operating activities as a measure of the Companys liquidity; nor is it indicative of funds available for the Companys 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.

EBITDA as defined by NAREIT (referred to as EBITDAre) is calculated 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 entitys 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. The Company also uses EBITDAre excluding certain gain and loss items that management considers unrelated to measurement of the Companys 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 Companys cash generated by operations or its dividend-paying capacity, and should therefore not replace GAAP net income (loss) as an indication of the Companys financial performance or GAAP cash flow from operating, investing and financing activities as measures of liquidity.

(2) Same Community results reflect constant currency for comparative purposes. Canadian currency figures in the prior comparative period have been translated at 2020 average exchange rates.

(3) The Same Community occupancy percentage is 97.4 percent for MH, 100.0 percent for RV, and 98.0 percent for the blended MH and RV. The MH and RV blended occupancy is derived from 112,134 developed sites, of which 109,882 were occupied. The Same Community occupancy percentage for 2019 has been adjusted to reflect incremental period-over-period growth from filled expansion sites and the conversion of transient RV sites to annual RV sites. The adjusted Same Community occupancy percentage for 2020 is derived from 111,196 developed sites, of which 109,882 were occupied. The number of developed sites excludes RV transient sites and approximately 950 recently completed but vacant MH expansion sites.

(4) The effect of certain anti-dilutive convertible securities is excluded from these items.

(5) Net leased sites do not include occupied sites acquired during that year.

(6) Lines of credit and other debt includes the Companys MH floor plan facility. The effective interest rate on the MH floor plan facility was 6.0 percent for the quarters ended December 31, September 30 and June 30, 2020, and 7.0 percent for the quarters ended March 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019. However, the Company pays no interest if the floor plan balance is repaid within 60 days.

(7) Other expense, net was as follows (in thousands):

(8) These costs represent the expenses incurred to bring recently acquired properties up to the Companys operating standards, including items such as tree trimming and painting costs that do not meet the Companys capitalization policy.

(9) The renters monthly payment includes the site rent and an amount attributable to the home lease. The site rent is reflected in Real Property Operations segment revenue. For purposes of management analysis, site rent is included in Rental Program revenue to evaluate the incremental revenue gains associated with the Rental Program, and to assess the overall growth and performance of the Rental Program and financial impact on the Companys operations.

(10) Same Community results net $9.3 million and $8.7 million of certain utility revenue against the related utility expense in property operating and maintenance expense for the three months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Same Community results net $37.7 million and $34.7 million of utility revenue against the related utility expense in property operating and maintenance expense for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

(11) Same Community supplies and repair expense excludes $0.1 million and $0.7 million for the three months and year ended December 31, 2019, ofexpenses incurred for recently acquired properties to bring the properties up to the Companys operating standards, including items such as tree trimming and painting costs that do not meet the Companys capitalization policy.

(12) Monthly base rent per site pertains to annual RV sites and excludes transient RV sites.

(13) Calculated using actual results without rounding.

(14) Acquisitions and other is comprised of 130 properties acquired and three properties that the Company has an interest in, but does not operate in 2020, 42 properties acquired in 2019, one property being operated under a temporary use permit, three Florida Keys properties that require redevelopment as a result of damage sustained from Hurricane Irma in 2017, five recently opened ground-up developments, one property undergoing redevelopment, and other miscellaneous transactions and activity.

(15) Includes MH and annual RV sites, and excludes transient RV sites, as applicable.

(16) As of December 31, 2020, total portfolio MH occupancy was 96.6 percent inclusive of the impact of over 1,200 recently constructed but vacant MH expansion sites, and annual RV occupancy was 100.0 percent.

(17) Total sites for development were comprised of 75.7 percent for expansion, 22.2 percent for greenfield development and 2.2 percent for redevelopment.

(18) MH recurring capital expenditures are necessary to maintain asset quality, including purchasing and replacing assets used to operate the communities. These capital expenditures include items such as: major road, driveway, pool improvements; clubhouse renovations; adding or replacing street lights; playground equipment; signage; maintenance facilities; manager housing and property vehicles. The minimum capitalized amount is five hundred dollars.

(19) MH lot modification capital expenditures improve the asset quality of the community. These costs are incurred when an existing older home moves out, and the site is prepared for a new home, more often than not, a multi-sectional home. These activities, which are mandated by strict manufacturers installation requirements and state building code, include items such as new foundations, driveways, and utility upgrades.

(20) Capital expenditures related to acquisitions represent the purchase price of existing operating properties (including marinas) and land parcels to develop expansions or new properties. These costs for the year ended December 31, 2020 include $40.6 million of capital improvements identified during due diligence that are necessary to bring the communities to the Companys operating standards. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, these costs were $50.7 million and $94.6 million, respectively. These include items such as: upgrading clubhouses; landscaping; new street light systems; new mail delivery systems; pool renovation including larger decks, heaters, and furniture; new maintenance facilities; and new signage including main signs and internal road signs. These are considered acquisition costs and although identified during due diligence, often require 24 to 36 months after closing to complete.

(21) MH expansion and development expenditures consist primarily of construction costs and costs necessary to complete home site improvements, such as driveways, sidewalks and landscaping.

(22) MH capital costs related to revenue generating activities consist primarily of garages, sheds, sub-metering of water, sewer and electricity. Revenue generating attractions at our RV resorts are also included here and, occasionally, a special capital project requested by residents and accompanied by an extra rental increase will be classified as revenue producing.

Certain financial information has been revised to reflect reclassifications in prior periods to conform to current period presentation.
