CubeSmart Reports Third Quarter 2024 Results
MALVERN, PA -- (Globe Newswire) – October 31, 2024 -- CubeSmart (NYSE: CUBE) today announced its operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.
“The third quarter saw a continuation of trends as we remain in a competitive environment for new customer rental rates while the existing customer remains very resilient,” commented President and Chief Executive Officer Christopher P. Marr. “This month, we celebrated our 20th anniversary as a public company. While it’s exciting to celebrate our accomplishments over the past two decades, we remain keenly focused on our culture of innovation and enhancing our position as an industry leader.”
Key Highlights for the Third Quarter
| ● | Reported diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) attributable to the Company’s common shareholders of $0.44. |
| ● | Reported funds from operations (“FFO”), as adjusted, per diluted share of $0.67. |
| ● | Same-store (598 stores) net operating income (“NOI”) decreased 3.1% year over year, resulting from a 0.8% decrease in revenues and a 5.3% increase in operating expenses. |
| ● | Same-store occupancy averaged 90.8% during the quarter, ending at 90.2%. |
| ● | Added 24 stores to our third-party management platform, bringing our total third-party managed store count to 893. |
Financial Results
Net income attributable to the Company’s common shareholders was $100.8 million for the third quarter of 2024, compared with $102.6 million for the third quarter of 2023. Diluted EPS attributable to the Company’s common shareholders decreased to $0.44 for the third quarter of 2024, compared with $0.45 for the same period last year.
FFO, as adjusted, was $153.0 million for the third quarter of 2024, compared with $154.0 million for the third quarter of 2023. FFO, as adjusted, per diluted share decreased 1.5% to $0.67 for the third quarter of 2024, compared with $0.68 for the same period last year.

As of September 30, 2024, the Company had two joint venture development properties under construction. The Company anticipates investing a total of $36.9 million related to these projects and had invested $9.1 million of that total as of September 30, 2024.

Third-Party Management
As of September 30, 2024, the Company’s third-party management platform included 893 stores totaling 58.3 million rentable square feet. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company added 24 stores and 131 stores, respectively, to its third-party management platform.
Same-Store Results
The Company’s same-store portfolio as of September 30, 2024 included 598 stores containing 43.0 million rentable square feet, or approximately 96.7% of the aggregate rentable square feet of the Company’s 615 consolidated stores. These same-store properties represented approximately 97.5% of the Company’s property NOI for the three months ended September 30, 2024.
Same-store physical occupancy as of September 30, 2024 and 2023 was 90.2% and 91.3%, respectively. Same-store total revenues for the third quarter of 2024 decreased 0.8% and same-store operating expenses increased 5.3% compared to the same quarter in 2023. Same-store NOI decreased 3.1% from the third quarter of 2023 to the third quarter of 2024.
Operating Results
As of September 30, 2024, the Company’s total consolidated portfolio included 615 stores containing 44.4 million rentable square feet and had physical occupancy of 89.7%.
Total revenues increased $3.0 million and property operating expenses increased $4.3 million in the third quarter of 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023. Increases in revenues were primarily attributable to increases in property management fees and other fee revenue, increases in customer storage protection plan participation at our owned and managed stores, and revenues generated from property acquisitions and recently opened development properties. Increases in property operating expenses were primarily attributable to an increase in advertising costs within the same-store portfolio and increased expenses generated from property acquisitions and recently opened development properties.
Interest expense decreased from $23.2 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023 to $22.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of $0.4 million. The decrease was attributable to a decrease in the average outstanding debt balance and lower interest rates during the 2024 period compared to the 2023 period. The average outstanding debt balance decreased from $3.00 billion during the three months ended September 30, 2023 to $2.94 billion during the three months ended September 30, 2024. The weighted average effective interest rate on our outstanding debt decreased from 3.04% during the three months ended September 30, 2023 to 2.99% for the three months ended September 30, 2024.
Financing Activity
During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company sold 0.6 million common shares of beneficial interest through its at-the-market (“ATM”) equity program at an average sales price of $54.20 per share, resulting in net proceeds of $32.8 million, after deducting offering costs. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had 5.2 million shares available for issuance under the existing equity distribution agreements.

Quarterly Dividend
On July 23, 2024, the Company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.51 per common share. The dividend was paid on October 15, 2024 to common shareholders of record on October 1, 2024.
2024 Financial Outlook
“During the quarter, we found a select number of attractive investment opportunities as the transaction market became more constructive,” commented Chief Financial Officer Tim Martin. “We raised a modest amount of equity capital and are excited to put our well-capitalized balance sheet to work.”
The Company estimates that its fully diluted earnings per share for 2024 will be between $1.72 and $1.76, and that its fully diluted FFO per share, as adjusted, for 2024 will be between $2.62 and $2.66. Due to uncertainty related to the timing and terms of transactions, the impact of any potential future speculative investment activity is excluded from guidance. For 2024, the same-store pool consists of 598 properties totaling 43.0 million rentable square feet.

About CubeSmart
CubeSmart is a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust. The Company's self-storage properties are designed to offer affordable, easily accessible and, in most locations, climate-controlled storage space for residential and commercial customers. According to the 2024 Self-Storage Almanac, CubeSmart is one of the top three owners and operators of self-storage properties in the United States.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Funds from operations (“FFO”) is a widely used performance measure for real estate companies and is provided here as a supplemental measure of operating performance. The April 2002 National Policy Bulletin of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (the “White Paper”), as amended, defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of real estate and related impairment charges, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.
Management uses FFO as a key performance indicator in evaluating the operations of the Company's stores. Given the nature of its business as a real estate owner and operator, the Company considers FFO a key measure of its operating performance that is not specifically defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The Company believes that FFO is useful to management and investors as a starting point in measuring its operational performance because FFO excludes various items included in net income that do not relate to or are not indicative of its operating performance such as gains (or losses) from sales of real estate, gains from remeasurement of investments in real estate ventures, impairments of depreciable assets, and depreciation, which can make periodic and peer analyses of operating performance more difficult. The Company’s computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs or real estate companies.
FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of the Company’s performance. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP and is not a measure of liquidity or an indicator of the Company’s ability to make cash distributions. The Company believes that to further understand its performance, FFO should be compared with its reported net income and considered in addition to cash flows computed in accordance with GAAP, as presented in its consolidated financial statements.
THIRD QUARTER 2024 | | PAGE 4 |
| Earnings Release |
FFO, as adjusted represents FFO as defined above, excluding the effects of acquisition related costs, gains or losses from early extinguishment of debt, and other non-recurring items, which the Company believes are not indicative of the Company’s operating results.
The Company defines net operating income, which it refers to as “NOI,” as total continuing revenues less continuing property operating expenses. NOI also can be calculated by adding back to net income (loss): interest expense on loans, loan procurement amortization expense, loss on early extinguishment of debt, acquisition related costs, equity in losses of real estate ventures, other expense, depreciation and amortization expense, general and administrative expense, and deducting from net income (loss): equity in earnings of real estate ventures, gains from sales of real estate, net, other income, gains from remeasurement of investments in real estate ventures and interest income. NOI is a measure of performance that is not calculated in accordance with GAAP.
Management uses NOI as a measure of operating performance at each of its stores, and for all of its stores in the aggregate. NOI should not be considered as a substitute for net income, cash flows provided by operating, investing and financing activities, or other income statement or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes NOI is useful to investors in evaluating operating performance because it is one of the primary measures used by management and store managers to evaluate the economic productivity of the Company’s stores, including the ability to lease stores, increase pricing and occupancy, and control property operating expenses. Additionally, NOI helps the Company’s investors meaningfully compare the results of its operating performance from period to period by removing the impact of its capital structure (primarily interest expense on outstanding indebtedness) and depreciation of the basis in its assets from operating results.
