MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY
"We produced strong full-year results, generating Real Estate AFFO per share growth of 6.3%, primarily reflecting the accretive impact of new investments and our merger with CPA:18, as well the strength of our rent escalations," said Jason Fox, Chief Executive Officer of W. P. Carey.
"After an unsettled market backdrop for much of 2022, we executed new investments at noticeably improved cap rates during the fourth quarter. As we embark on 2023 — W. P. Carey's 50th anniversary year — we're optimistic about the investment environment and our ability to close meaningfully higher deal volume at more attractive spreads. Currently, we have a sizeable near-term pipeline of transactions at advanced stages, which in conjunction with capital projects and commitments completing in 2023, and our year-to-date deal volume, gives us visibility into at least $700 million of investments, just over a month into the year. And the significant dry powder we've raised ensures we're well-positioned to execute."
QUARTERLY FINANCIAL RESULTS
Revenues
-
Total Company: Revenues, including reimbursable costs, for the 2022 fourth quarter totaled $402.6 million, up 7.4% from $374.9 million for the 2021 fourth quarter.
-
Real Estate: Real Estate revenues, including reimbursable costs, for the 2022 fourth quarter were $402.1 million, up 8.6% from $370.3 million for the 2021 fourth quarter. Lease revenues were higher as a result of net investment activity, properties acquired in the CPA:18 Merger and rent escalations, partly offset by the impact of a stronger U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies, primarily the euro. Operating property revenues increased as a result of the self-storage and other operating properties acquired in the CPA:18 Merger. Other lease-related income declined (on a GAAP basis), due primarily to lower lease termination fees.
Net Income Attributable to W. P. Carey
- Net income attributable to W. P. Carey for the 2022 fourth quarter was $209.5 million, up 110.3% from $99.6 million for the 2021 fourth quarter. Net income from Real Estate attributable to W. P. Carey was $210.1 million, which increased due primarily to a mark-to-market gain recognized on the Company's shares of Lineage Logistics of $38.6 million during the current-year period and the impact of net investment activity (including properties acquired in the CPA:18 Merger) and rent escalations. Net loss from Investment Management attributable to W. P. Carey was $0.6 million, which decreased due primarily to the cessation of Investment Management revenues and distributions previously earned from CPA:18.
Adjusted Funds from Operations (AFFO)
- AFFO for the 2022 fourth quarter was $1.29 per diluted share, down 0.8% from $1.30 per diluted share for the 2021 fourth quarter. The Company's Real Estate segment generated AFFO of $1.29 per diluted share, up 1.6% from $1.27 per diluted share for the 2021 fourth quarter, primarily reflecting the impact of net investment activity, the accretive impact of the CPA:18 Merger and rent escalations. This increase was mostly offset by the combination of higher interest expense, the net impact of a stronger U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies, primarily the euro, and the impact on lease revenues of (i) vacant properties, for which the Company received other lease-related income in prior periods, and (ii) certain COVID-related rent recoveries in the prior-year period.
Note: Further information concerning AFFO and Real Estate AFFO, which are both non-GAAP supplemental performance metrics, is presented in the accompanying tables and related notes.
Dividend
- On December 8, 2022, the Company reported that its Board of Directors increased its quarterly cash dividend to $1.065 per share, equivalent to an annualized dividend rate of $4.26 per share. The dividend was paid on January 13, 2023 to shareholders of record as of December 30, 2022.
FULL YEAR FINANCIAL RESULTS
Revenues
-
Total Company: Revenues, including reimbursable costs, for the 2022 full year totaled $1.48 billion, up 11.1% from $1.33 billion for the 2021 full year.
-
Real Estate: Real Estate revenues, including reimbursable costs, for the 2022 full year totaled $1.47 billion, up 11.9% from $1.31 billion for the 2021 full year. Lease revenues were higher as a result of net investment activity, properties acquired in the CPA:18 Merger and rent escalations, partly offset by the impact of a stronger U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies, primarily the euro. Operating property revenues increased as a result of the self-storage and other operating properties acquired in the CPA:18 Merger. Other lease-related income declined from 2021 (on a GAAP basis).
Net Income Attributable to W. P. Carey
- Net income attributable to W. P. Carey for the 2022 full year totaled $599.1 million, up 46.1% from $410.0 million for the 2021 full year. Net income from Real Estate attributable to W. P. Carey was $591.6 million, which increased due primarily to a lower loss on extinguishment of debt, a non-cash mark-to-market gain of $49.2 million recognized on our investment in common stock of Watermark Lodging Trust (WLT) and the impact of net investment activity (including properties acquired in the CPA:18 Merger) and rent escalations, partly offset by higher interest expense. The Company also recorded mark-to-market gains on its shares of Lineage Logistics totaling $38.6 million and $76.3 million during the current and prior year, respectively. Net income from Investment Management attributable to W. P. Carey was $7.5 million, which decreased due primarily to a $29.3 million impairment charge recognized on goodwill within that segment since Investment Management revenues are expected to be minimal going forward following the CPA:18 Merger. The Company also recognized a $33.9 million gain on change in control of interests in connection with the CPA:18 Merger.
AFFO
- AFFO for the 2022 full year was $5.29 per diluted share, up 5.2% from $5.03 per diluted share for the 2021 full year. The Company's Real Estate segment generated AFFO of $5.20 per diluted share, up 6.3% from $4.89 per diluted share for the 2021 full year, driven by net investment activity and rent escalations, higher other lease-related income (on an AFFO basis, after excluding $37.8 million in the 2021 fourth quarter as non-core income) and the accretive impact of the CPA:18 Merger. This was partly offset by the net impact of a stronger U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies, primarily the euro, and higher interest expense.
Note: Further information concerning AFFO and Real Estate AFFO, which are both non-GAAP supplemental performance metrics, is presented in the accompanying tables and related notes.
Dividend
- Dividends declared during 2022 totaled $4.242 per share, an increase of 0.9% compared to total dividends declared during 2021 of $4.205 per share.
AFFO GUIDANCE
- For the 2023 full year, the Company expects to report total AFFO of between $5.30 and $5.40 per diluted share (all of which comprises Real Estate AFFO) based on the following key assumptions:
(i) investment volume of between $1.75 billion and $2.25 billion;
(ii) disposition volume of between $300 million and $400 million; and
(iii) total general and administrative expenses of between $97 million and $100 million.
Note: The Company does not provide guidance on net income. The Company only provides guidance on total AFFO (and Real Estate AFFO) and does not provide a reconciliation of this forward-looking non-GAAP guidance to net income due to the inherent difficulty in quantifying certain items necessary to provide such reconciliation as a result of their unknown effect, timing and potential significance. Examples of such items include impairments of assets, gains and losses from sales of assets, and depreciation and amortization from new acquisitions.
REAL ESTATE
Investments
- During the 2022 fourth quarter, the Company completed investments totaling $158.5 million, bringing total investment volume for the year ended December 31, 2022 to $1.4 billion (excluding properties acquired in the CPA:18 Merger).
- Year to date through February 10, 2023, the Company has completed investment volume of $64.8 million.
- The Company currently has seven capital investments and commitments totaling $87.7 million and construction loan funding of $68.7 million scheduled to be completed during 2023, for an aggregate total of $156.4 million.
Dispositions
- During the 2022 fourth quarter, the Company disposed of six properties for gross proceeds of $67.6 million, bringing total disposition proceeds for the year ended December 31, 2022 to $243.7 million.
Rent Collections
- The Company received over 99.3% of contractual base rent that was due in the 2022 fourth quarter.
Composition
- As of December 31, 2022, the Company's net lease portfolio consisted of 1,449 properties, comprising 176 million square feet leased to 392 tenants, with a weighted-average lease term of 10.8 years and an occupancy rate of 98.8%. In addition, the Company owned 84 self-storage operating properties, two student housing operating properties and one hotel operating property, totaling approximately 6.6 million square feet.
Conversion of Net Lease Hotels to Operating Properties
- On January 31, 2023, 12 hotels owned by the Company converted to operating properties upon expiration of their master lease with Marriott, at which time the Company began recognizing operating property revenues and expenses on the properties and ceased recognizing lease revenues.
BALANCE SHEET AND CAPITALIZATION
Forward Equity
- During the 2022 fourth quarter, the Company settled a portion of its outstanding forward sale agreements, issuing 2,587,500 shares of common stock for net proceeds of $187 million.
- During the 2022 fourth quarter, the Company used forward sale agreements under its ATM program to sell 986,400 shares of common stock at a weighted-average gross price of $80.02 per share, all of which remain available for settlement, for anticipated net proceeds of approximately $78 million.
- As of December 31, 2022, the Company had an aggregate of $530 million in anticipated net proceeds available for settlement pursuant to forward sale agreements.
- Subsequent to quarter end, the Company used forward sale agreements under its ATM program to sell 353,264 shares of common stock at a weighted-average gross price of $81.94 per share, all of which remain available for settlement, for anticipated net proceeds of approximately $29 million.
- As a result, the Company currently has an aggregate of $559 million in anticipated net proceeds available for settlement pursuant to forward sale agreements.
Cash Received for Shares of WLT
- As previously announced, in October 2022, all outstanding shares of WLT common stock were acquired by a private real estate fund. As of the date of acquisition, the Company owned 12,208,243 shares of WLT common stock for which it received $82.6 million in cash and as a result has no remaining interest in WLT.

Non-GAAP Financial Disclosure
Funds from Operations (FFO) and Adjusted Funds from Operations (AFFO)
Due to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, as discussed below, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (NAREIT), an industry trade group, has promulgated a non-GAAP measure known as FFO, which we believe to be an appropriate supplemental measure, when used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP, to reflect the operating performance of a REIT. The use of FFO is recommended by the REIT industry as a supplemental non-GAAP measure. FFO is not equivalent to, nor a substitute for, net income or loss as determined under GAAP.
We define FFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the standards established by the White Paper on FFO approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, as restated in December 2018. The White Paper defines FFO as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from sales of property, impairment charges on real estate or other assets incidental to the company's main business, gains or losses on changes in control of interests in real estate and depreciation and amortization from real estate assets; and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments are calculated to reflect FFO.
We also modify the NAREIT computation of FFO to adjust GAAP net income for certain non-cash charges, such as amortization of real estate-related intangibles, deferred income tax benefits and expenses, straight-line rent and related reserves, other non-cash rent adjustments, non-cash allowance for credit losses on loans receivable and direct financing leases, stock-based compensation, non-cash environmental accretion expense, amortization of discounts and premiums on debt and amortization of deferred financing costs. Our assessment of our operations is focused on long-term sustainability and not on such non-cash items, which may cause short-term fluctuations in net income but have no impact on cash flows. Additionally, we exclude non-core income and expenses, such as gains or losses from extinguishment of debt and merger and acquisition expenses. We also exclude realized and unrealized gains/losses on foreign currency exchange rate movements (other than those realized on the settlement of foreign currency derivatives), which are not considered fundamental attributes of our business plan and do not affect our overall long-term operating performance. We refer to our modified definition of FFO as AFFO. We exclude these items from GAAP net income to arrive at AFFO as they are not the primary drivers in our decision-making process and excluding these items provides investors a view of our portfolio performance over time and makes it more comparable to other REITs that are currently not engaged in acquisitions, mergers and restructuring, which are not part of our normal business operations. AFFO also reflects adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments. We use AFFO as one measure of our operating performance when we formulate corporate goals, evaluate the effectiveness of our strategies and determine executive compensation.
We believe that AFFO is a useful supplemental measure for investors to consider as we believe it will help them to better assess the sustainability of our operating performance without the potentially distorting impact of these short-term fluctuations. However, there are limits on the usefulness of AFFO to investors. For example, impairment charges and unrealized foreign currency losses that we exclude may become actual realized losses upon the ultimate disposition of the properties in the form of lower cash proceeds or other considerations. We use our FFO and AFFO measures as supplemental financial measures of operating performance. We do not use our FFO and AFFO measures as, nor should they be considered to be, alternatives to net income computed under GAAP, or as alternatives to net cash provided by operating activities computed under GAAP, or as indicators of our ability to fund our cash needs.
