I’d now like to turn the conference call over to Darrell Crate, Chairman of Easterly Government Properties.

Darrell Crate

Great job. Thanks Lindsay. Good morning, everyone, and thank you for joining us for the third quarter conference call. Today, in addition to Lindsay, I’m also joined by Bill Trimble, the company’s CEO; and Meghan Baivier, the company’s CFO and COO.

During the quarter, we entered a new phase in the real estate market, rates are rising quickly, how fast is uncertain. The transaction market has slowed and there is a gap between buyer and seller expectations. Cap rates are readjusting.

Of course none of this will adversely impact our tenant credit quality, our occupancy or our dividend, having rent that is backed by the full facing credit of the U.S. government, coupled with the managing the portfolio for consistency and stability should uncertainty for our investors, particularly during uncertain times.

So, that leaves me to the front-footed question, how can we use this period to enhance our portfolio and add value for our shareholders. First, we are enhancing the institutional quality of our portfolio by disposing of a set of assets that are either in remote locations or with agencies where we do not see an ability to build a defined edge in serving our agency client. These are fine agencies, but at this time, we believe concentrating on what we know best will enhance our ability to add value.

Second, we’re using the proceeds from the disposition to pay down most of our outstanding floating rate debt. We have been disciplined about terming out our liabilities to match our assets and that favors us in these times of interest rate uncertainty.

Third, we’re maintaining meaningful liquidity in order to purchase assets that may be owned by landlords experiencing some financial distress. We have found ourselves at a disadvantage relative to developers over the last several years. They have been projects assuming an exit with ever lower cap rates that worked for them longer than we imagined. That is over. Liquidity will start to dry up. Some will need a partner to complete their projects. Not mentioned specifics, but we will be ready should this opportunity present itself.

And lastly, we’re actively bidding on transactions in a way that reflects the new cap rate environment. I don’t imagine that we’ll get much done in the next quarter or two, but I do imagine the market will reprice and we will find ourselves with our liquidity ready to acquire additional accretive quality assets.

So, we’re pleased with how our portfolio is positioned as we look forward and we will continue to execute our business strategy with the intent to deliver safety and stability to our investors.

The goal is to deliver an attractive risk adjusted return to our shareholders that’s backed by tenants that represent the full faith and credit of the United States government.

And with that, I’ll turn the call over to Bill to give you insights into the third quarter activities.

Bill Trimble

Thanks Darrell and good morning. Thank you for joining us for our third quarter earnings call. Starting with acquisitions during the third quarter, Easterly acquired a 28,900 square foot U.S. District Courthouse located in Council Bluffs, Iowa. This Courthouse, a build-to-suite facility that delivered in 2021 is 100% leased to GSA on behalf of the Judiciary for 20-year non-cancelable term that does not expire until 2041.

As part of the eighth Judicial Circuit, this property serves the Western Division of the Southern District of Iowa, a district that we created over 140 years ago. This facility located just across the river from our National Park Service and FBI Omaha facilities provide strong geographic efficiencies for our asset management team. And with the enduring mission of the U.S. Judiciary, adding another Courthouse to our portfolio undoubtedly strengthens the overall caliber of Easterly’s assets.

In addition to the wholly-owned acquisition activity, Easterly for our joint venture, purchased our seven brand new VA facility located in Columbus, Georgia, which is part of our previously announced 10-building VA portfolio.

From this, roughly 68,000 square foot facility, the VA is able to provide an enhanced range of services to the approximately 30,000 surrounding veterans that reside close to the Georgia, Alabama state line. Like nearly all of the properties in this VA portfolio, VA Columbus sits on a brand new 20-year lease that does not expire until 2042.

We continue to expect the remainder of the assets in the VA portfolio to deliver as planned and we expect the JV to close on a total of approximately $145 million of this portfolio in 2022.

We are maintaining an active presence in the acquisition market. But with careful consideration for the changing backdrop and rising cost of capital, we acknowledge this is a moment where the markets are undergoing a transformation. Interest rates are rising this year at a pace this country has not seen in nearly two decades. There are inflationary pressures and we feel it is prudent to stay acutely aware of opportunities, but not chase deals for the sake of portfolio growth.

That said there are competitive advantages in this niche GSA market. As previously mentioned, the GSA leased structure protects us as landlords from inflation-induced operating costs increases. And further, as Darrell mentioned, we believe in maintaining liquidity on the balance sheet as we estimate there may soon be a unique opportunity to help regional developers who have found themselves over extended and need an exit strategy.

This is very similar to what we did with FEMA Tracy Development several years ago. By pursuing only the most selective acquisition opportunities in this environment, we are strengthening the balance sheet for future development prospects, which has always been the most equated use of our capital.

Finally, turning to this morning’s announcement, at a time when the transaction market is nearly paused, Easterly is pleased to report we’ve executed our first portfolio disposition with an experienced private buyer of GSA leased real estate. The disposition portfolio is comprised of 10 buildings, approximately 668,000 leased square feet with a weighted average age of 14 years as a core rent.

Meghan will go into further detail on use of proceeds and how this disposition was the right course of action for Easterly at this time, but the sale only makes the remaining 85 properties in the Easterly portfolio even more reflective of our bullseye ownership strategy.

Through this sale, our weighted average remaining lease term, our annualized lease income per square foot, and visibility of cash flows are all improved, which ultimately, enhances the NAV of the portfolio. This sale in turn supports our stable dividend currently at a highly attractive yield. In the end, Easterly is left with a more bullseye-oriented portfolio with a tighter geographical footprint and larger average property size.

Turning to leasing updates, our asset management team continues to secure renewals that lengthen the duration of our government-backed cash flows, and enhance the portfolio’s NAV.

In the third quarter, we renew the DEA drug laboratory located in Dallas, Texas for a new 17-year lease term. We also renew the FBI field office located in Little Rock, Arkansas for another 20-year lease term. With a combined weighted average renewal term of 19 years, the importance of these two facilities for the U.S. government is apparent. I congratulate the asset management team on continued strong renewal executions, and we look forward to providing updates and future quarters for 2023 renewals and beyond.

Turning to operations, the third quarter of 2022 was a notable quarter for an ESG perspective, as Easterly released its inaugural ESG report. This report, which can be found in our corporate responsibility page, is a notable death in our company’s ESG trajectory.

For the first time, Easterly has committed itself to certain environmental and social goals including a 10% reduction in energy and a 5% reduction in water use by 2030, a commitment to increase DEI hiring and training practices across the company, 90% participation in charitable giving or volunteering by 2025, and finally, implementation of an employee engagement survey with at least 90% participation for Easterly employees.

We feel good about establishing these important goals for our company, and continuing to be strong corporate citizens for our employees, shareholders, and the communities we serve.

You can expect this report will be updated and progress towards these goals will be tracked on an annual basis. Many thanks to our Director of Sustainability for leading this effort and delivering report which captures the company’s increasing ESG initiatives so well.

In closing, this has been an important quarter for Easterly. We have renewed our largest 2022 lease expirations for a weighted average duration of 19.3 years, providing the company with increased certainty and duration of cash flow for future dividends.

We added bullseye assets, both wholly-owned and through the JV, increasing the overall quality of our portfolio. We made significant strides in our environmental sustainability and corporate responsibility efforts through the publication of our inaugural ESG report. And subsequent to quarter end, we executed on the company’s first portfolio disposition, which simultaneously strengthens the company’s balance sheet and portfolio profile. We look forward to keeping everyone apprised of future endeavors as we close out the year.

And with that, I thank you for your time this morning and will turn the call over to Meghan to discuss the quarterly financial results.

Meghan Baivier

Thank you Bill. Good morning, everyone. At a time when the market is bringing company’s balance sheets into greater focus due in part to rising interest rates, I am pleased with the strength of our portfolio and the actions we’ve taken to recycle capital, enhance our leverage profile, and position ourselves for opportunities to come.

As of September 30th, we own 95 operating properties, comprising approximately 9.1 million leased square feet either wholly-owned or through our joint venture with a weighted average age of 14 years, and a weighted average remaining lease term of 10.1 years.

Pro forma for this morning’s disposition announcement portfolio metrics look even stronger, with a revised portfolio size of 85 operating properties and 8.4 million leased square feet, either wholly-owned or through our joint venture, our new weighted average remaining lease term is enhanced to 10.3 years and reflects the company’s bullseye investment thesis.

At quarter end, the company had total indebtedness of approximately $1.4 billion representing a net debt to annualized quarterly pro forma EBITDA ratio of 7.4 times with approximately $177.8 million outstanding on our line of credit. In total, this represents just over 14% variable rate debt for the company.

With the completed sale of the 10 property disposition portfolios subsequent to quarter end, we expect net proceeds will be used to pay down outstanding debt obligations, taking Easterly’s adjusted net debt to annualized quarterly pro forma EBITDA ratio down to 6.9 times as of September 30th.

Furthermore, we will have extinguished a mortgage with a rate well above the company’s weighted average at MEPCOM, Jacksonville. We will have reduced the company’s floating rate exposure from 14.1% to 1.3% of all outstanding debt obligations; improved the company’s weighted average interest rate by eight basis points; lengthened the weighted average maturity of outstanding debt obligations to 6.1 years; and added capacity for future acquisitions and development related expenses by recycling non-bullseye assets.

When combined with the approximately $92.5 million of unsettled forward equity, these actions translate into a well-positioned balance sheet for the company in a time of rising rates.

Turning to our third quarter results all on a fully diluted basis, net income per share was $0.01, FFO per share was $0.32, and AFFO as adjusted per share was also $0.32. Our cash available for distribution was $28.5 million.

And finally, turning to our earnings guidance in connection with the announced disposition and the changing reality in the capital markets, we are revising our FFO guidance per share on a fully diluted basis to a range of $1.26 to $1.28. This guidance is predicated upon a number of factors, including no additional wholly-owned acquisition activity beyond the approximately $107.7 million already completed year-to-date, the closing of properties in the VA portfolio totaling approximately $145 million at the company’s pro rata share, the completed sale of all 10 properties in the disposition portfolio, and no additional material development related investment in 2022.

Like the majority of our REIT brethrens, we plan on issuing our 2023 guidance in connection with our Q4 and year end 2022 earnings results. Given the slowing transaction market, the increased cost of capital, and general uncertainty in the capital markets, we feel it is prudent to withhold guidance until we have greater clarity of the market and our ability to drive earnings growth for our shareholders in a rapidly evolving environment.

With that, we thank you for your commitment to our thesis and appreciate your partnership. I will now turn the call back to Shomali.

Question-and-Answer Session

Operator

Thank you. At this time, we will be conducting a question-and-answer session. [Operator Instructions]

Our first question comes from the line of Michael Griffin with Citi. Please proceed with your question.

Michael Griffin

Thanks. Maybe going back to the guidance comment. Just seeing if you run rate 4Q expectations through to 2023, it would imply a deceleration I guess relative to 2022. Meghan, I know you just talked about how you didn’t provide guidance for 2023, but I mean, is this how we should be thinking about it with the framework kind of going into it? And any additional color or commentary you could provide here review would be great.

Meghan Baivier

Sure. So, with regard to this year’s guidance, really the shift is due in equal parts to interest and deal volume, as well as the run rate dilution from the disposition for a portion — a large portion of the fourth quarter. So, yes, as we go into 2023, considering the run rate affected disposition and the forward curve would be the primary two drivers of how we how we start off looking at 2023.

Michael Griffin

Okay, cool. That’s — sorry.

Meghan Baivier

So, we’ll issue formal guidance in February.

Michael Griffin

Got you, that’s — appreciate the color on that. And then maybe back to dispositions, it didn’t seem to me that you necessarily needed to be a forced seller in a market like this. And I understand correctly, kind of assessing the flooding debt side of things. But the back of my math showed about a low sevens dispo cap rate, kind of, compared to where you’re trading at on an implied cap of call it about a mid-6s.

So, I guess kind of piggybacking on that, maybe gives more clarity around why this transaction was kind of right at this time? And any anything else you can provide there that would be helpful?

Bill Trimble

Yes, good morning. I think the first thing to realize is that while we love all of our buildings, we have a broad range of different missions, different geographies, different sizes, and — within our portfolio, and I think it’s sure you noted, when you saw the buildings we sold, which we like, many of them were located in remote regions that were difficult for our asset management team to really dig into.

Secondarily, they’re mostly in the sort of the 30,000 to 40,000 square foot size. So, really not a scale for our company. But most importantly, I think, is that they weren’t part of our bullseye strategy and that’s important.

I think that it’s very important that we concentrate on agencies we know, the judiciary, we’ve talked about those Homeland Security agencies that have been terrific parts of our portfolio. And so we really tried to construct a great portfolio to move on, there’s a very educated buyer on the other side of this portfolio.

But I also think that there’s another factor at play right now, as we saw cap rates compressing at a incredible rate from last November until basically March of last year, basically, from the sixes down to the low fives during that period of time, and everything got compressed, I mean, the good stuff, the okay stuff, and even the bad stuff, which obviously, we were not interested in, were really moving down as you saw a lot of appetite in this particular sector.

Now, what we’re seeing is more of a return to what we’ve enjoyed for the last 10 years, which is there’s different pricing, there’s a broader spectrum, whether you have most of our buildings will be laboratories FBIs, think federal courthouses, they’re going to trade at a lower cap rate.

But the plain vanilla sorts of buildings, which I think the government is always going to need, are beginning to gas out on that. And that’s why I think, this would be — these buildings are reflective of good buildings, but they’re not reflective of our core portfolio. Meghan, anything to add?

Darrell Crate

I guess I would just also say, as you look at these times of uncertainty, we want to position ourselves to have liquidity. And while we think that the price for building was a good transaction, having that liquidity for the opportunities that are coming as we looked at 2023, of course, we’re uncertain on the timing of those opportunities. But those opportunities are ahead of us and we just want to be very well-positioned to see them.

Michael Griffin

And it’s a low seven dispo cap rate, is that right around in the right ballpark, give or take?

Bill Trimble

That is. Yes.

Michael Griffin

Okay, great. Thanks so much, guys. Appreciate it. Thanks. That’s it for me.

Operator

Our next question comes from the line of John Kim with BMO Capital Markets. Please proceed with your question.

John Kim

Thank you. It seems like you’ve had more of a refined strategy on what your bullseye target is. And there’s been some cap rate compression on that in recent months until recently. But just given your cost of capital and interest rate environment, it’s not really conducive for acquisition. What is your strategy on achieving earnings growth, is that really on the back burner for now?

Meghan Baivier

Yes, I think we would not necessarily agree with the premise that there isn’t an opportunity for this market to normalize and our cost of capital to be in line with where that market is normalizing and our ability to go back and do what we’ve done for eight years and acquire it accretively to drive external growth, John.

Bill Trimble

I think John, more affirmatively, which is that’s — that is what is going to happen, is it going to take a quarter, two quarters, three quarters? We don’t know. But that is — it’s very clear what the future holds and that’s why we’re positioning ourselves in a way that we can take advantage of it.

John Kim

I thought Bill mentioned earlier that the plain vanilla assets is where you can see some corporate expansion, that’s where you could get some creative acquisitions to be pursued that route, but it doesn’t seem like they call in that way.

Bill Trimble

No, I think, we are not going in that direction. And I think most of the acquisitions that you see in that area for us have been part of a portfolio and so we’ve always been John bullseye, bullseye, bullseye, I think the animal how many times appears in speech every time, but we really like to drive to that.

And there’s been questions have asked, I think one note came out asking about occupancy or when is the government going to get back? The government has been in our buildings the entire time, which I’d like to point out to folks and they have important missions.

But I think the world is changing. At some point. I can’t forecast what’s going to happen 15 years from now, or 10 years from now, but we do know that the FBI, the laboratories, the courthouses are going to continue to be occupied and extremely valuable, and in — more important, very expensive and difficult to replace. So, that’s the area that we’re going to spend our time in and it just seemed a natural moment to also close some liquidities in the — for the balance sheet.

John Kim

On the rising operating expense this quarter, I realized something that’s probably weather-related. But I was wondering if you had that figure on a same-store basis? And how you feel about managing those costs into 2023?

Meghan Baivier

Can you repeat the first half of the question, John, what about — on same-store basis quarter-over-quarter?

John Kim

Yes, I mean, the OpEx you have on the total portfolio basis, but I was wondering if you had that same-property basis?

Meghan Baivier

Yes. So, in the quarter, same-store NOI quarter-over-quarter due to that spike in utilities in August, which we by the way, have seen moderate in September, really, fully offset the contribution of the deals we had done in the second quarter and the annualization, so $1.3 million — offsetting $1.3 million and then obviously, the rising interest rates, netted the about $0.01 quarter-over-quarter FFO decline.

John Kim

Do expect inflationary pressures next year keeping that expense number elevated?

Meghan Baivier

I mean, I think we all appreciate the inflationary environment we’re in, but over time, our leases reiterate do provide for that inflation protection. They may not be able to insulate for a one month spike, such as we had happened in August, but over the arc of time, our base is well matched to our expenses, and we are effectively keeping OpEx growth inside of current inflation levels.

John Kim

That’s great. Thank you.

Operator

And our next question comes from the line of Michael Carroll with RBC. Please proceed with your question.

Michael Carroll

Yes. Thanks Meghan. Just staying on the OpEx I guess question that John was asking about. It looks like OpEx was up about $2.6 million sequentially. But your recoveries roughly about $700,000? I mean was that difference just really driven by the seasonal nature of August or is that going to continue going forward?

Meghan Baivier

So, Mike, remember the tenant reimbursements line item you see in our financials is not the OpEx space reimbursement, that is embedded in rental income, that’s related to those interim tenant improvement projects that we perform on behalf of the government.

So, nevertheless, to get your question, we are, excuse me, same-store OpEx growth this year is sub-8% and we do expect to be able to — as I said in my prior comment, continue to effectively hedge that with our base.

Michael Carroll

So, I mean, it looks like what total revenues were up about $1.4 million, so there’s still a pretty big gap between what was increased and OpEx, I’m assuming that is just driven by the seasonal nature of it and as we move forward into 4Q or 1Q, you’re going to be able to kind of — that OpEx increase is not going to be as significant. So, you should see some benefits of that going in the four quarters. Is that correct?

Meghan Baivier

Yes. So, again, just to keep the details tight, here we — our same-store NOI quarter-over-quarter did decline $1.3 million do nearly entirely by the utility spiking, right? We do expect that to revert as we move into the fourth quarter.

Michael Carroll

Okay. And then just related to the asset sales, I guess, did you change your definition of bullseye property, I was surprised that you had so many non-bullseye properties within your portfolio. I mean, I guess outside of these sales, how many of you have left that you would consider a selling and that you don’t want in your portfolio? It doesn’t fit your criteria?

Bill Trimble

Well, I think we feel good where we are now. Obviously, we had a renewables of our largest plain vanilla assets are very sensitive terms in the last few years, as in 15 year terms. So, this really would cover most of those assets that we were put into that category.

But we’ve always, as I said human to the same, same discipline and we always have said that we want to concentrate on those builders who have mission-critical bullseye properties and that’s what you’re going to see as buy and that’s what you’re going to — I think if you see sales in the future for any reasons, they will probably be in the plain vanilla category.

Michael Carroll

Would you consider these assets plain vanilla or would you consider them just non-bullseye properties?

Bill Trimble

Non-bullseye — well, I think we think we really consider the same thing to tell you the truth. I mean, bullseye isn’t like — isn’t a binary thing. So, there’s some that are closer to the edge than others. And this was an opportunity to kind of trim along the edge of bullseye properties. And as we said, concentrate on a couple of agencies where we really can have a defined edge, competitive advantage and serving the client.

And again, in times of adversity, it’s time to kind of trim it in a little bit, make sure we’re focused on, what we do our very best create liquidity for the opportunities that are coming. And it’s in the context of all of that, that the actions of the last — really three months and six months have been taking place.

Michael Carroll

Okay, so then the non-bullseye properties are plain vanilla properties that you still have in the portfolios led probably with the IRS building in Fresno, some other Social Security buildings that you’re happy with — you’re happy with those because the lease term?

Bill Trimble

Yes, we’re very happy with those the lease term. And I think you probably know that the IRS just got a $80 million check. And that’s — front of it. And, by the way, I’ll remind everybody in the call is the last place you ever want to get a call from because they’re in charge of national compliance. But yes, that would be an example of a plain vanilla sort of property.

Michael Carroll

Okay, great. Thank you.

Bill Trimble

Thanks.

[Operator Instructions]

Our next question comes from the line of Michael Lewis with Truist. Please proceed with your question.

Michael Lewis

Thanks. This is good timing, because I wanted to follow-up on Mike Carroll’s question. I had some of the same thoughts. When I looked at the portfolio of 10 properties, one of these is an SBA 81,000 square feet in College Park, Maryland. One of them is a VA, 30,000 square feet in Baton Rouge, one of them is leased to IAS [ph] 25,000 square feet in Pittsburgh. And so I think those are probably bullseye agencies.

And I’m just wondering, like, how this portfolio came together was — did you market this and found a buyer? Or did you negotiate with the buyer, what properties were in the portfolio and which ones were out? I’m just kind of curious how it came together?

Meghan Baivier

Yes. Mike, it was a well-considered well-compiled portfolio, and it was competitively put into the market. We had a lot of interest from named competitors, we speak out regularly and feel very good that, that we found a very efficient fair value perspective on the portfolio.

Michael Lewis

Okay. So, you didn’t swap properties in and out?

Meghan Baivier

No, we didn’t. No, we did not.

Michael Lewis

Okay, and then on the guidance, does it assume that all of the sales proceeds are used to repay debt? And as part of that, I’m wondering what debt can you get? And at what cost? Because you don’t have any maturity for the next 12 months, and there was only $6 million of debt on the portfolio.

Meghan Baivier

Yes, that’s right, Mike. It is our plan to pay down our line with proceeds. We obviously had $177 million outstanding at the end of the quarter. And when you look through to the end of the year and the closing of the 10th property, also with the consideration of completing our VA portfolio acquisition target, that does nudge you $50 million on the revolver. So, adequate capacity there. And should we need it, a lot of continued for following us in finance secured markets.

Michael Lewis

Okay, that makes sense. And then, just lastly, for me again, I guess, another guidance question. So, you lowered the guidance for this year by $0.08 and I think you mentioned half of that related to the lower acquisitions and capital markets and then half on the dispositions. When I look at the dispositions, right only two months’ impacts and you’re going to be — and that’s before you even redeploy the proceeds is probably about — before you

Meghan Baivier

Sorry if you make sure that — is roughly $0.04 due to the due to rates, $0.03 on wholly-owned transactions that are not — are no longer in our guidance and just about $0.01 for the disposition impact.

Michael Lewis

Okay, I missed that. Yes, that answers my question. Perfect. All right. Thank you.

Meghan Baivier

No problem. Thank you.

Operator

And we have reached the end of the question-and-answer session. I’ll now turn the call back over to Darrell W. Crate for closing remarks.
