STARLIGHT U.S. RESIDENTIAL FUND ANNOUNCES Q3-2023 RESULTS
/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES./
TORONTO, Nov. 14, 2023 /CNW/ - Starlight U.S. Residential Fund (TSXV: SURF.A and SURF.U) (the "Fund") announced today its results of operations and financial condition for the three months ended September 30, 2023 ("Q3-2023") and nine months ended September 30, 2023 ("YTD-2023"). Certain comparative figures are included for the three months ended September 30, 2022 ("Q3-2022") and nine months ended September 30, 2022 ("YTD-2022").
All amounts in this press release are in thousands of United States ("U.S.") dollars except for average monthly rent ("AMR")1 or unless otherwise stated. All references to "C$" are to Canadian dollars.
"The Fund owns a high-quality, well located portfolio of multi-family communities which reported an increase in same property average monthly rents of 1.2% from Q3-2022 to Q3-2023," commented Evan Kirsh, the Fund's President. "The Fund continues to focus on increasing net operating income at its properties through active asset management and navigating the current challenging capital markets environment with the goal of maximizing the total return for investors upon exit."
Q3-2023 HIGHLIGHTS
- Q3-2023 total portfolio revenue and net operating income ("NOI")1 were $9,709 and $6,439 (Q3-2022 - $9,830 and $6,076), with the reduction in revenue primarily due to the disposition of 67 single-family properties ("SF Properties") during YTD-2023, partially offset by same property revenue growth of 1.8%. The increase in NOI is primarily due to a 3.8% increase in same property NOI1, excluding the impact of certain property tax adjustments in both periods.
- The Fund achieved a 1.2% increase in annualized AMR from Q3-2022 to Q3-2023 and reported an estimated gap to market versus in-place rents1 of 3.7% as at the end of Q3-2023, providing further opportunity for rental increases in future periods.
- The Fund completed 91 in-suite value-add upgrades at the multi-family properties ("MF Properties") during Q3-2023, which generated an average rental premium of $149 and an average return on cost of approximately 32.8% (YTD-2023 - 191 upgrades at an average rental premium of $155 and an average return on cost of approximately 28.2%).
- As at November 13, 2023, the Fund had collected approximately 97.6% of rents for Q3-2023, with further amounts expected to be collected in future periods, demonstrating the Fund's high quality resident base and operating performance.
- The Fund reported a net loss and comprehensive loss attributable to unitholders for Q3-2023 of $14,563 (Q3-2022 - $14,897), primarily resulting from the fair value loss on investment properties reported in Q3-2023.
- During Q3-2023, the Fund continued with the disposition program of the Fund's SF Properties completing nine dispositions during the quarter for net proceeds of $2,653 (YTD-2023 - 67 dispositions for net proceeds of $16,966). The SF Properties are non-core to the Fund's overall portfolio and strategy with the Fund intending to sell the remaining 31 SF Properties to enhance the Fund's liquidity position.
- On July 26, 2023, the Fund amended the existing Eight at East loan payable to a fixed rate loan bearing interest only ("IO") payments at 5.75% from the date of the amendment to the initial maturity date of May 7, 2025. As part of the amendment, the Fund discharged its obligation to purchase a replacement interest rate cap in January 2024, which is expected to allow the Fund to retain liquidity that otherwise would have been utilized for the purchase of a replacement interest rate cap. The Fund has interest rate caps, swaps or fixed rate debt in-place for 100% of its mortgages on the Fund's properties.

YTD-2023 HIGHLIGHTS
- YTD-2023 total portfolio revenue and NOI were $29,578 and $18,415 (YTD-2022 - $24,618 and $15,251), respectively, with the increases primarily as a result of the acquisition of The Ventura and Eight at East in YTD-2022, partially offset with the disposition of certain SF Properties during YTD-2023 (the "Primary Variance Drivers") as well as same property revenue and NOI growth of 3.3% and 3.0% from YTD-2022 to YTD-2023.
- The Fund reported a net loss and comprehensive loss attributable to unitholders for YTD-2023 of $52,707 (YTD-2022 - $6,285), primarily resulting from the fair value loss on investment properties reported in YTD-2023.
- On January 25, 2023, the Fund entered into an interest rate swap relating to the Indigo Apartments property loan payable at a swap rate of 3.75%, fixing the all-in interest rate at 5.70% until maturity.
- On May 23, 2023, the Fund entered into a $25,000 credit facility which bears IO payments until maturity in May 2024 ("Fund Credit Facility"). At inception of the Fund Credit Facility, the Fund drew $20,000 and used these amounts to retain liquidity and repay a total of $18,000 of the Fund's indebtedness1. The Fund may draw up to an additional $5,000 on the Fund Credit Facility to provide additional liquidity required by the Fund (see "Subsequent Events").

Economic and physical occupancy for Q3-2023 and for the three months ended December 31, 2022. As at September 30, 2023, adjusting for the vacant suites undergoing in-suite upgrades at that time, the Fund's occupancy would have been 91.7%. |

This metric is a non-IFRS measure. Non-IFRS financial measures do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS (see "non-IFRS financial measures and reconciliations"). |
||||
(3) |
The weighted average interest rate on loans payable is presented as at September 30, 2023 reflecting the prevailing index rate, 30-day New York Federal Reserve Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("NY SOFR") or one-month term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (together with NY SOFR, "SOFR"), as at that date or based on the average rate for the applicable periods as it relates to quarterly rates. As at November 14, 2023, the Fund had interest rate caps, swaps or fixed rate debt in place for 100% of its mortgages on the Properties, which protect the Fund from increases in SOFR above approximately 3.5% (as at September 30, 2023, the SOFR rate was 5.31%). |
||||
(4) |
The Fund acquired a 90% interest in The Ventura on May 25, 2022, with the remaining non-controlling interest owned by an affiliate of the manager of the Fund. The summarized income statement figures presented above reflect the net loss attributable to unitholders only, and excludes any amounts attributable to the non-controlling interest. |

(5) |
Property taxes include the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee 21 - Levies fair value adjustment and treats property taxes as an expense that is amortized during the fiscal year for the purpose of calculating NOI. |
||||
(6) |
Finance costs include interest expense on loans payable, non-cash amortization of deferred financing costs and fair value changes in derivative financial instruments. |
||||
(7) |
Includes distributions to unitholders, dividends to preferred shareholders, unrealized foreign exchange gain (loss), realized foreign exchange gain, fair value adjustment of investment properties, provision for carried interest and deferred income taxes. The Fund paused monthly distributions effective with the November 2022 distribution, that would have been payable on December 15, 2022. |
||||
(8) |
The Fund's interest and indebtedness coverage ratios were 0.84x during Q3-2023, with the Fund reporting favourable operating results offset by increases in the Fund's interest costs as a result of the Fund primarily utilizing a variable rate debt strategy which allows the Fund to maintain maximum flexibility for the potential sale of the Fund's properties at the end of, or during, the Fund's Term. The Fund also had interest rate caps, swaps or fixed rate debt in place as at November 14, 2023 which protect the Fund from increases in SOFR beyond stipulated levels on 100% of its mortgages at the MF Properties. Given the Fund was also formed as a "closed-end" trust with an initial term of three years, a targeted pre-tax yield of 4.0% and a pre-tax targeted annual total return of 11% across all classes of Units, the Fund continues to monitor the Fund's interest and indebtedness coverage ratios with the goal of maximizing the total return for investors during the Fund's term. |
NON-IFRS FINANCIAL MEASURES AND RECONCILIATIONS
The Fund's condensed consolidated interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). Certain terms that may be used in this press release including adjusted funds from operations ("AFFO"), AMR, adjusted net income and comprehensive income, cash provided by operating activities including interest costs, economic occupancy, estimated gap to market versus in-place rents, funds from operations ("FFO"), gross book value, indebtedness, indebtedness coverage ratio, indebtedness to gross book value, interest coverage ratio, same property NOI and NOI (collectively, the "Non-IFRS Measures"), as well as other measures discussed elsewhere in this press release, do not have a standardized definition prescribed by IFRS and are, therefore, unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other reporting issuers. The Fund uses these measures to better assess the Fund's underlying performance and financial position and provides these additional measures so that investors may do the same. Further details on Non-IFRS Measures are set out in the Fund's management's discussion and analysis ("MD&A") in the "Non-IFRS Financial Measures" section for Q3-2023 available on the Fund's profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

(4) |
Indebtedness coverage ratio is calculated as adjusted net (loss) income and comprehensive (loss) income plus interest expense divided by interest expense and mandatory principal payments on the Fund's loans payable. |

The Fund's interest coverage ratio and indebtedness coverage ratio were each 0.84x during Q3-2023. The decline in both ratios during Q3-2023, relative to Q3-2022, was primarily due to increases in SOFR, partially offset by NOI growth due to the Primary Variance Drivers and same property NOI growth. Although the interest coverage and indebtedness coverage ratios have been negatively impacted by the increases in SOFR, operating results for the Fund's properties have remained favourable. During Q3-2023, the Fund covered any operating shortfall through cash on hand, including any proceeds from financing activities as applicable.
The Fund also utilizes interest rate caps, swaps or fixed rate debt on 100% of its mortgages at the Fund's properties to limit the potential impact on the Fund's financial performance from any increases in interest rates. As a result of such interest rate caps, swaps, or fixed rate debt in place as at September 30, 2023, the Fund's weighted average interest rate was 5.77%.
CASH PROVIDED BY OPERATING ACTIVITIES RECONCILIATION TO FFO and AFFO
The Fund was formed as a "closed-end" trust with an initial term of three years, a targeted yield of 4.0% and a pre-tax targeted total annual return of 11% across all classes of units of the Fund. For Q3-2023, basic and diluted AFFO and AFFO per Unit were $(1,047) and $(0.03), respectively (Q3-2022 - $(251) and $(0.01)), representing a decrease of $796, primarily as a result of increases in the Fund's interest costs driven by increases in SOFR, partially offset by same property NOI growth. The Fund covered any shortfall between cash used by operating activities, including interest costs1, through either cash from operating activities during such applicable periods, cash on hand, or the Fund Credit Facility, including any proceeds from financing activities as applicable.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On October 25, 2023, the Fund repaid $1,900 towards the Fund Credit Facility using a portion of the disposition proceeds of SF Properties and subsequently, an additional $1,200 was drawn from the Fund Credit Facility.
On November 14, 2023, the Fund purchased a replacement interest rate cap for the Lyric Apartments loan payable with a three-month term, notional amount of $91,375 and 3.0% SOFR strike rate.
FUTURE OUTLOOK
Since early 2022, concerns over elevated levels of inflation have resulted in a significant increase in interest rates with the U.S. Federal Reserve raising the Federal Funds Rate by approximately 525 basis points. Interest rate increases typically lead to increases in borrowing costs for the Fund, reducing cash flow, given the Fund primarily employs a variable rate debt strategy due to the Fund's three-year term in order to provide maximum flexibility upon the eventual sale of the Fund's properties during or at the end of the Fund's term. Historically, investments in multi-family properties have provided an effective hedge against inflation given the short-term nature of each resident lease which has been demonstrated by the rent growth achieved at the Fund's properties where AMR increased by 1.2% from Q3-2022 to Q3-2023. Furthermore, the Fund does have certain interest rate caps, swaps or fixed rate debt in place which protect the Fund from increases in interest rates beyond stipulated levels and for stipulated terms as described in detail in the Fund's condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, which is available at www.sedarplus.ca. The Fund also continues to closely monitor the U.S. employment and inflation data as well as the U.S. Federal Reserve's monetary policy decisions in relation to future interest rates and resulting impact these may have on the Fund's financial performance in future periods.
The impact of rising interest rates and higher levels of inflation have also significantly disrupted active and new construction of comparable communities in the primary markets in which the Fund operates which may create a temporary imbalance in supply of comparable multi-suite residential properties and single-family rental homes in future periods. This imbalance, alongside the continued economic strength and solid fundamentals may be supportive of favourable supply and demand conditions for the Fund's properties in future periods and could result in future increases in occupancy and rent growth. The Fund believes it is well positioned to take advantage of these conditions should they transpire given the quality of the Fund's properties and the benefit of having a resident pool employed across a diverse job base.
The Fund continues to closely monitor the financial impact of elevated interest rates and higher levels of inflation on the Fund's liquidity and financial performance, including the costs of purchasing interest rate caps required to be replaced under certain of the Fund's loan payables. In addition, market forecasts from RealPage anticipate a potential reduction in rent growth and occupancy for the markets in which the Fund operates in relative to the levels achieved in 2023, which the Fund considers along with a range of potential outcomes for financial performance when evaluating the Fund's liquidity position. During this period of capital markets uncertainty, the Fund may also enter into additional financing or evaluate potential asset sales to allow the Fund to maintain sufficient liquidity to provide the Fund with the opportunity to capitalize on more robust market dynamics with the goal of maximizing the total return for investors during the Fund's term.
Further disclosure surrounding the Future Outlook is included in the Fund's MD&A in the "Future Outlook" section for Q3-2023 under the Fund's profile, which is available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.
