UMH Properties, Inc. | Fourth Quarter FY 2024 Supplemental Information | 14 |
Investors and analysts following the real estate industry utilize funds from operations available to common shareholders (“FFO”), normalized funds from operations available to common shareholders (“Normalized FFO”), Community NOI, Same Property Community NOI, and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and acquisition costs (“Adjusted EBITDA excluding Non-Recurring Other Expense”), variously defined, as supplemental performance measures. While the Company believes net income (loss) available to common shareholders, as defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), is the most appropriate measure, it considers Community NOI, Same Property Community NOI, Adjusted EBITDA excluding Non-Recurring Other Expense, FFO and Normalized FFO, given their wide use by and relevance to investors and analysts, appropriate supplemental performance measures. FFO, reflecting the assumption that real estate asset values rise or fall with market conditions, principally adjusts for the effects of U.S. GAAP depreciation and amortization of real estate assets. FFO also adjusts for the effects of the change in the fair value of marketable securities and gains and losses realized on marketable securities. Normalized FFO reflects the same assumptions as FFO except that it also adjusts for amortization of financing costs and certain one-time charges. Community NOI and Same Property Community NOI provide a measure of rental operations and do not factor in depreciation and amortization and non-property specific expenses such as general and administrative expenses. Adjusted EBITDA excluding Non-Recurring Other Expense provides a tool to further evaluate the ability to incur and service debt and to fund dividends and other cash needs. In addition, Community NOI, Same Property Community NOI, Adjusted EBITDA, excluding Non-Recurring Other Expense, FFO and Normalized FFO are commonly used in various ratios, pricing multiples, yields and returns and valuation of calculations used to measure financial position, performance and value.
FFO, as defined by The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”), is calculated to be equal to net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders, as defined by U.S. GAAP, excluding gains or losses from sales of previously depreciated real estate assets, impairment charges related to depreciable real estate assets, the change in the fair value of marketable securities, and the gain or loss on the sale of marketable securities plus certain non-cash items such as real estate asset depreciation and amortization. Included in the Nareit FFO White Paper - 2018 Restatement, is an option pertaining to assets incidental to our main business in the calculation of Nareit FFO to make an election to include or exclude gains and losses on the sale of these assets, such as marketable equity securities, and include or exclude mark-to-market changes in the value recognized on these marketable equity securities. In conjunction with the adoption of the FFO White Paper - 2018 Restatement, for all periods presented, we have elected to exclude the gains and losses realized on marketable securities and change in the fair value of marketable securities from our FFO calculation. Nareit created FFO as a non-GAAP supplemental measure of REIT operating performance.
Normalized FFO is calculated as FFO excluding amortization and certain one-time charges.
Normalized FFO per Diluted Common Share is calculated using diluted weighted shares outstanding of 81.2 million and 74.9 million shares for the three months and year ended December 31, 2024, respectively, and 67.2 million and 63.7 million shares for the three months and year ended December 31, 2023, respectively. Common stock equivalents resulting from stock options in the amount of 1.1 million shares and 315,000 shares for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, were included in the computation of Diluted Net Income (Loss) per share. Common stock equivalents resulting from stock options in the amount of 798,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024, were included in the computation of Diluted Net Income (Loss) per share. Common stock equivalents resulting from stock options in the amount 613,000 shares for the year ended December 31, 2023 were excluded from the computation of Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
Community NOI is calculated as rental and related income less community operating expenses such as real estate taxes, repairs and maintenance, community salaries, utilities, insurance and other expenses.
Same Property Community NOI is calculated as Community NOI, using all properties owned as of January 1, 2023, with the exception of Memphis Blues, Duck River Estates and River Bluff Estates.
Adjusted EBITDA excluding Non-Recurring Other Expense is calculated as net income (loss) plus interest expense, franchise taxes, depreciation, the change in the fair value of marketable securities and the gain (loss) on sales of marketable securities, adjusted for non-recurring other expenses.
Community NOI, Same Property Community NOI, Adjusted EBITDA excluding Non-Recurring Other Expense, FFO and Normalized FFO do not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with U.S. GAAP and are not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs, including the repayment of principal on debt and payment of dividends and distributions. Community NOI, Same Property Community NOI, Adjusted EBITDA excluding Non-Recurring Other Expense, FFO and Normalized FFO should not be considered as substitutes for net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders (calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP) as a measure of results of operations, or cash flows (calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP) as a measure of liquidity. Community NOI, Same Property Community NOI, Adjusted EBITDA excluding Non-Recurring Other Expense, FFO and Normalized FFO as currently calculated by the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled, but variously calculated, measures of other REITs.

UMH Properties, Inc. | Fourth Quarter FY 2024 Supplemental Information | 17 |
Mr. Landy stated, “Our success in 2024—marked by a stellar total shareholder return, a double-digit same property NOI increase, and strong sales revenue growth—is a testament to the hard work of our employees, the trust of our residents, and the support of our shareholders. We remain dedicated to driving performance, enhancing communities, and delivering value, and we’re excited to build on this foundation in 2025.”
“This year, we delivered a total shareholder return of 30%, reflecting the strength of our growth strategy and the value we’ve created for investors. In 2024, we achieved normalized funds from operations of $0.93 per diluted share, an 8% increase from 2023, reflecting the strength of our portfolio and our ability to drive consistent earnings per share growth.”
“Our communities continue to experience strong demand which is resulting in increased sales revenue and strong home rental occupancy. In 2024, our sales revenue grew by 8% to $33.5 million while increasing our gross sales margin from 32% in 2023 to 35% in 2024. Additionally, we added 565 new homes to our rental home portfolio while maintaining 94% rental home occupancy. We continue to make investments in the expansion of our communities and anticipate these valuable developments as a key component to growing income in the future. The fundamentals of our business remain solid and indicate strong performance in 2025.”
“As we enter 2025, this strong performance positions UMH Properties to seize new opportunities in the manufactured housing market. We anticipate obtaining our 5% rent increases and adding 800 new homes to our rental home portfolio. Additionally, our sales and finance division has the ability to increase sales revenue and profits further increasing our normalized FFO per share. Our long-term business plan has positioned us for another year of excellent operating and financial performance.”
“We are initiating 2025 guidance with Normalized FFO in a range of $0.96-$1.04 per diluted share for the full year, or $1.00 at the midpoint. This represents 7.5% annual normalized FFO growth at the midpoint over full year 2024 Normalized FFO of $0.93 per diluted share.”
“We have opportunistically raised capital through our common and preferred ATM programs. This capital will allow us to make accretive investments in our existing portfolio and give us the ability to complete compelling acquisitions as they become available. UMH Properties remains committed to enhancing our communities, driving financial performance, and delivering sustainable value as we embark on an exciting 2025 with momentum and purpose.”

Note:
(1) | Non-GAAP Information: We assess and measure our overall operating results based upon an industry performance measure referred to as Funds from Operations Attributable to Common Shareholders (“FFO”), which management believes is a useful indicator of our operating performance. FFO is used by industry analysts and investors as a supplemental operating performance measure of a REIT. FFO, as defined by The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”), represents net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders, as defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), excluding gains or losses from sales of previously depreciated real estate assets, impairment charges related to depreciable real estate assets, the change in the fair value of marketable securities, and the gain or loss on the sale of marketable securities plus certain non-cash items such as real estate asset depreciation and amortization. Included in the Nareit FFO White Paper - 2018 Restatement, is an option pertaining to assets incidental to our main business in the calculation of Nareit FFO to make an election to include or exclude gains and losses on the sale of these assets, such as marketable equity securities, and include or exclude mark-to-market changes in the value recognized on these marketable equity securities. In conjunction with the adoption of the FFO White Paper - 2018 Restatement, for all periods presented, we have elected to exclude the gains and losses realized on marketable securities investments and the change in the fair value of marketable securities from our FFO calculation. Nareit created FFO as a non-U.S. GAAP supplemental measure of REIT operating performance. We define Normalized Funds from Operations Attributable to Common Shareholders (“Normalized FFO”), as FFO excluding certain one-time charges. FFO and Normalized FFO should be considered as supplemental measures of operating performance used by REITs. FFO and Normalized FFO exclude historical cost depreciation as an expense and may facilitate the comparison of REITs which have a different cost basis. However, other REITs may use different methodologies to calculate FFO and Normalized FFO and, accordingly, our FFO and Normalized FFO may not be comparable to all other REITs. The items excluded from FFO and Normalized FFO are significant components in understanding the Company’s financial performance. |
FFO and Normalized FFO (i) do not represent Cash Flow from Operations as defined by U.S. GAAP; (ii) should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) as a measure of operating performance or to cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities; and (iii) are not alternatives to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. FFO and Normalized FFO, as calculated by the Company, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other REITs.
The diluted weighted shares outstanding used in the calculation of FFO per Diluted Common Share and Normalized FFO per Diluted Common Share were 81.2 million and 74.9 million shares for the three months and year ended December 31, 2024, respectively, and 67.2 million and 63.7 million shares for the three months and year ended December 31, 2023, respectively. Common stock equivalents resulting from stock options in the amount of 1.1 million shares and 315,000 shares for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, were included in the computation of Diluted Net Income (Loss) per share. Common stock equivalents resulting from stock options in the amount of 798,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024, were included in the computation of Diluted Net Income (Loss) per share. Common stock equivalents resulting from stock options in the amount 613,000 shares for the year ended December 31, 2023 were excluded from the computation of Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
