Management Provides Forward-Looking Thoughts
RENO, Nev. –
Modiv Industrial, Inc. (“Modiv Industrial”, “Modiv”, the “Company”, “we” or “our”), (NYSE:MDV), the only public REIT exclusively focused on acquiring industrial manufacturing real estate, today announced operating results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023.
Key Financial Highlights:
- 21% year-over-year increase in revenue generating $12.5 million compared with $10.3 million in the year-ago quarter.
- 19% year-over-year increase in AFFO netting $3.7 million compared with $3.1 million in the year-ago quarter.
- $10 million reduction in leverage and a 14% reduction in net debt to adjusted EBITDA from prior quarter results released in August 2023.
- $5.4 million net proceeds from the sale of a non-core asset located in Rocklin, California.
- Portfolio consists of 44 properties with a weighted average lease term of 14.0 years and weighted average annual rental increases of 2.48%.
“Another solid quarter of no-nonsense execution. Given the increased market volatility and geo-political risk, we believe the greater benefit inures to those that are thoughtful rather than rash. With crystal balls becoming even more opaque, today’s environment compels us to be incessantly focused on the execution of the variables in our control. As such, it feels imprudent to provide formal guidance for 2024 but reasonable for us to be transparent as to our strategic thinking. The following business outlook lists our activity and perspective on topics we suspect will be germane to investors.
Business Outlook:
Acquisitions – Since our NYSE listing last year, we have acquired over $214 million of industrial manufacturing assets, arguably the most active buyer of this property type and at a volume that is more commensurate with much larger REITs. As we discussed recently in this Nareit podcast, we chose to be active in the latter half of last year and the first half of this year. Though we continue to look at every asset we can, we are finding the majority of the current supply to be lacking in strategic value, having an insufficient credit profile and/or being offered with questionable pricing (that holds true for both too low and too high cap rates). Given the lackluster inventory, coupled with tepid markets, we don’t see ourselves being that acquisitive in the near term. That could change if the broader capital markets improve or if we find truly compelling opportunities.
As we take a calculated pause on single asset purchases, we are spending a decent amount of time exploring portfolio consolidations and intriguing M&A opportunities. In fact, over the past year, we have underwritten and dialogued on five such opportunities representing over $2.4 billion of aggregate value – all focused on industrial manufacturing. Though the timing and pricing haven’t been right as of yet, all of those opportunities remain on our active radar.
We take the Buffett-esque view that, at this stage of the market cycle, we can afford to stand over the plate looking for the fat pitch without fear of strikes being called.
Dispositions – Similar to our acquisition volume, we have been busy disposing of our non-industrial assets since we listed, with over $120 million sold across 22 assets (including 10 office properties). We are focused on recycling those assets that we do not believe are a strategic long-term fit but at the same time we are also not in a rush to throw away good AFFO just to clear these assets off the books. Given that we still hold office assets and office has become a six-letter curse word, one might think we would be verklempt and, in turn, hasty in our retreat. We are not. We are, however, patient and we draw this patience from the facts that we have observed firsthand. For example, as it relates to our three largest office properties: in the past year we have received three unsolicited bids on our asset located in Issaquah, Washington; we have been in conversations with the AA-rated tenant of our asset located in Rancho Cordova, California, about their intent to begin their lengthy government process to exercise their purchase option; and we are reviewing flex conversion proposals we have received on our asset located in Nashville, Tennessee. If parties are kicking the tires of our office assets in today’s market, then that suggests to us that interested parties will also likely kick the tires at a later time when the market landscape has settled and after we have collected more of our contractual rents.
We aren’t being stubborn or idealistic, but we are being balanced and patient.
Equity – A study of REIT history shows us, time and time again, that those REITs that are disciplined with their use of equity and debt win over the long term as investors reward those companies that can grow, yet also preserve, the capital entrusted to them. There is no REIT in existence today that hasn’t, over the course of its lifespan, accessed both equity and debt on a routine basis. However, it is the amount and timing of each capital source that creates a clear divide between those that are rewarded and those that languish. There may be few, if any, examples of a REIT of our size, with the acquisition volume we have delivered, who have gone so long without accessing the equity markets. It is with this knowledge that we have chosen a disciplined, yet arduous, path forward over the past 21 months. We recognized early on that we could remain both disciplined and opportunistic by accessing affordable debt when it was still available last year while at the same time recycling assets into higher yielding alternatives and by strategically identifying UPREIT transactions that made sense (factoid: we have issued over $37 million of OP units at a weighted average price greater than $23 since the beginning of 2022).
Combined, these activities have allowed us to prolong our need to access the market until such time that we see greater receptivity to equity issuances and as our share price draws closer to fair value. We believe we have upwards of $100 million of additional assets, both the identified non-core properties and a few industrial distribution properties, that we can recycle advantageously into manufacturing properties while we wait for the equity markets to regain their footing. We believe our investor outreach efforts, which we discuss below, have helped raise awareness of our historical mispricing and have recently closed the value gap. Going forward, we will identify those opportunities where issuing shares via our ATM makes sense from a price standpoint but also to further our goal of increasing our tradeable float. Though we have no present-day designs to access the equity markets in the near term, we will be prepared to act efficiently should the markets improve. Further, we believe that even small amounts of capital can go far given our discipline and the math of the denominator effect. By hypothetical example, a small raise of just $15 million could generate $0.10 of unlevered AFFO per share and, at today’s P/AFFO, result in a 7%+ increase in our share value on top of our existing 7%+ dividend rate.
Yes, we will eventually access the equity markets but we feel no pressure to do so prematurely or excessively.
Debt – Modiv Industrial now has less than $285 million of indebtedness, 100% of which is fixed rate, with a weighted average interest rate of 4.52% and a weighted average maturity of 3.6 years with the earliest meaningful maturity not until 2027. Our debt to asset ratio is 48%, our Debt to Adjusted EBITDA multiple is 6.7 and our debt service coverage is 2.3x. These metrics are in line with, or better than, our previously announced intentions over the past two years and represent, to us, a thoughtful use of leverage at a time when equity was unavailable.
Barring a compelling consolidation or M&A opportunity, we do not see any further benefit in using additional debt and intend to make single asset purchases on an unlevered basis. As such, it is our intent to only use the capacity of our $150 million revolver in those instances where there may be a short-term timing mismatch. We recently paid down $10 million of mortgage debt and will be focused on the gradual reduction of our leverage profile over the next three years. The fruits of that focus will provide the opportunity for price multiple expansion and a more favorable refinancing posture when our loans are scheduled to mature.
Through our own prior career experiences, our entire management team, as well as our board of directors, holds a very healthy perspective on the use of debt which includes the beliefs that you should never take on an amount that you cannot handle and that we must never forget that in risky times it is normal to expect embedded differences between lenders and borrowers to become more prominent.
Like the flame from a hot stove, debt can be used to nourish an enterprise or burn it – we are proactively turning down the heat.
Strategic Partner – February of this year we informed the public that we had received some inquiries from institutional investors about making a strategic investment into Modiv. Throughout the year we have also had numerous bankers pitch capital ideas to us with most sounding very similar to the “Madison-Plymouth” deal from a few years back. We elected not to spend much time on these concepts as we were focused on our acquisition pipeline and the portfolio sale of non-core assets to Generation Income Properties, Inc (NASDAQ: GIPR). In early September, we began to think more deeply about the concept of accepting strategic partner capital and what we would want to accomplish if we did.
Commonly, smaller REITs entertain such capital infusions either due to financial necessity or some contrived urgency to get bigger as soon as possible. Modiv doesn’t suffer from any financial desperation, and we believe it is more intelligent to pursue actions that make us a better company rather than simply a bigger company. That said, we understand the benefits of scale particularly as it relates to tradeable float, industry consolidation opportunities and, over time, improved cost of capital. As we currently see it, the litany of structured preferred deals available to a REIT like us feel a lot like debt in sheep’s clothing – giving the private equity sponsor equity-like upside participation and leaving us with debt-like responsibility.
At Modiv we understand that we may owe our lenders, but we know we must always serve our (equity) owners. As such, we have been more inclined to explore truer economic joint venture arrangements whereby we have better alignment of mutual interests and both parties can achieve success. For a joint venture to work for us, any strategic partner would need to be more than just money and we would want to understand that they also believe in our investment thesis of owning manufacturing assets, that they see long-term upside value in our equity and that by associating with them we benefit from a “halo effect” that helps introduce other future investors to Modiv. Presently we are under numerous nondisclosure agreements and are having exploratory talks with multiple potential partners. At this stage, we can offer no outlook as to the prospects of any future announcement. For those who are interested or intrigued, please contact us.
We recognize that what we want from a joint venture might not at all be what a potential strategic partner wants, and we are ok with that – if it doesn’t happen, then we won’t force it. At the same time, we also recognize that there is a vast amount of capital out there with very few good ideas to invest in – we honestly believe we are one of those good ideas.
Distributions – Based on Modiv’s most recent closing price on November 10, 2023, our annual cash dividend of $1.15, distributed in twelve monthly payments, is yielding 7.77% and we are maintaining a dividend coverage ratio of over 110%. In our short history we have made 87 consecutive distributions totaling over $60 million. We feel comfortable with the current strength of our dividend but feel it can always be stronger. At this juncture, we do not see a near-term need to increase the cash distribution rate but, as we previously disclosed, we do anticipate making a meaningful in-kind distribution of GIPR shares as early as January 2024.
On November 9, 2023, GIPR obtained the necessary approval of its stockholders to issue up to 3,000,000 shares of its common stock to redeem the Series A Redeemable Preferred Stock that we received in partial consideration for our sale of 13 legacy retail and office assets to GIPR on August 10, 2023. The actual amount of GIPR shares that could be issued to Modiv ranges from 2.2 million to a maximum of 3.0 million, dependent upon the 60-day volume weighted average price (VWAP) of GIPR’s common stock on the date when they might choose to provide us notice of redemption. Net of any advanced private-party sales made by us or any technical reasons that may necessitate holding shares for future sale, the GIPR shares issued to Modiv would be distributed to all holders of Modiv’s then outstanding Class C Common Stock and Class C Operating Partnership Units. Obviously, there is no guarantee that GIPR will submit a redemption notice and even if they did, the amounts of any future dividends could change and are subject to the approval by each respective board of directors.
Based on our current projection, Modiv’s Class C Common Stock and Class C Operating Partnership Units could potentially receive anywhere from 0.24 to 0.32 of GIPR shares for every one share/unit of MDV. Assuming the midpoint of that potential range, the implied ratio would be approximately 0.28 GIPR shares and would represent a potential dividend of ~$1.14 based on GIPR’s share price as of November 10, 2023. When compared to our most recent closing price, that potential ~$1.14 in-kind dividend would equal a 7.7% special, one-time dividend rate. For those who don’t know, GIPR is also a monthly dividend paying stock that currently pays an annualized dividend of approximately $0.468 per share. So Modiv Class C holders, over a twelve-month period, could potentially receive $1.15 (MDV’s cash dividend) + ~$1.14 (GIPR shares) + ~$0.13 (GIPR’s cash dividend) for a potential total of ~$2.42 – a greater than 16% annualized dividend yield based on our most recent closing price.
We will leave it to investors to decide, but we believe our distribution rate, our growth rate and our upside potential make for compelling financial reasons to own our shares.
Investor Outreach – On August 14, 2023, when we announced our second quarter results and our name change to Modiv Industrial, we also informed the public that we would, for the first time, begin to actively seek to increase investor awareness. Our initial outreach efforts have been focused on individual investors and the financial advisors that advise them. In less than three months we have already emailed over 30,000 potential investors and held over 2,000 phone conversations. Additionally, we rang the bell at the New York Stock Exchange on September 29th and participated on a recent Nareit podcast.
In total, these ongoing efforts have already resulted in a 59% increase in our trading volume and a 26% positive relative performance when compared to the FTSE Nareit All Equities Index for the same time period. Though we are pleased with these results, we recognize this activity requires a long-term continuous effort to inform as many investors as possible through our candid and transparent communication. We recognize that it will take us a long time before we achieve any semblance of critical mass as pertains to investor awareness.
We are not presently focused on the institutional investor community and that is by design. We believe our audience today lies with individual investors and we hope that as many willing individual investors can buy our shares before we become a larger REIT that is held by institutions. Even though we know many of the portfolio managers at the leading REIT-dedicated investment shops on a first name basis, we understand the reality of our size, and more importantly, the limits that result. On more than one occasion we have received positive institutional feedback which tells us they are paying attention. We know that when they are ready, they can make a reverse inquiry via our ATM or participate in any future follow-on offerings. They know that we are patient and will, in the meantime, keep our nose to grindstone. Despite not making any formal efforts to attract the institutional crowd, we do have a robust schedule of meetings scheduled for our participation at Nareit’s REITWorld 2023 Investor Conference in Los Angeles, CA, November 14-16, 2023.
We are a persistent (and candid) bunch, and we know we will find our following in good time. With GRIT and GRIND, we will GET IT DONE!” – Aaron Halfacre, CEO of Modiv Industrial.

FFO is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”) as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding extraordinary items, as defined by GAAP, and gains and losses from sales of depreciable operating property, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs and depreciation of non-real estate assets), and after adjustment for unconsolidated partnerships, joint ventures, preferred distributions and real estate impairments. Because FFO calculations adjust for such items as depreciation and amortization of real estate assets and gains and losses from sales of operating real estate assets (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates), they facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between other REITs. As a result, we believe that the use of FFO, together with the required GAAP presentations, provides a more complete understanding of our performance relative to our competitors and a more informed and appropriate basis on which to make decisions involving operating, financing, and investing activities. It should be noted, however, that other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the current Nareit definition or may interpret the current Nareit definition differently than we do, making comparisons less meaningful.
Additionally, we use AFFO as a non-GAAP financial measure to evaluate our operating performance. AFFO excludes non-routine and certain non-cash items such as revenues in excess of cash received, amortization of stock-based compensation, deferred rents, amortization of in-place lease valuation intangibles, deferred financing fees, gain or loss from the extinguishment of debt, unrealized gains (losses) on derivative instruments, and write-offs of due diligence expenses for abandoned pursuits. We also believe that AFFO is a recognized measure of sustainable operating performance by the REIT industry. Further, we believe AFFO is useful in comparing the sustainability of our operating performance with the sustainability of the operating performance of other real estate companies. Management believes that AFFO is a beneficial indicator of our ongoing portfolio performance and ability to sustain our current distribution level. More specifically, AFFO isolates the financial results of our operations. AFFO, however, is not considered an appropriate measure of historical earnings as it excludes certain significant costs that are otherwise included in reported earnings. Further, since the measure is based on historical financial information, AFFO for the period presented may not be indicative of future results or our future ability to pay our dividends.
By providing FFO and AFFO, we present information that assists investors in aligning their analysis with management’s analysis of long-term operating activities. For all of these reasons, we believe the nonGAAP measures of FFO and AFFO, in addition to income (loss) from operations, net income (loss) and cash flows from operating activities, as defined by GAAP, are helpful supplemental performance measures and useful to investors in evaluating the performance of our real estate portfolio. However, a material limitation associated with FFO and AFFO is that they are not indicative of our cash available to fund distributions since other uses of cash, such as capital expenditures at our properties and principal payments of debt, are not deducted when calculating FFO and AFFO. AFFO is useful in assisting management and investors in assessing our ongoing ability to generate cash flow from operations and continue as a going concern in future operating periods. Therefore, FFO and AFFO should not be viewed as a more prominent measure of performance than income (loss) from operations, net income (loss) or cash flows from operating activities and each should be reviewed in connection with GAAP measurements.
Neither the SEC, Nareit, nor any other applicable regulatory body has opined on the acceptability of the adjustments contemplated to adjust FFO in order to calculate AFFO and its use as a non-GAAP performance measure. In the future, the SEC or Nareit may decide to standardize the allowable exclusions across the REIT industry, and we may have to adjust the calculation and characterization of this non-GAAP measure.

We define Net Debt as gross debt less cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. We define Adjusted EBITDA as GAAP net income or loss adjusted to exclude real estate related depreciation and amortization, gains or losses from the sales of depreciable property, extraordinary items, provisions for impairment on real estate investments and goodwill, interest expense, non-cash items such as non-cash compensation expenses and write-offs of transaction costs and other one-time transactions. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they are widely accepted industry measures used by analysts and investors to compare the operating performance of REITs. EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP, and our EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. You should not consider our EBITDA as an alternative to net income or cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP.
