Aimco Provides Recent Highlights and First Quarter Financial Results

Apartment Investment and Management Company (“Aimco”) (NYSE: AIV) announced today first quarter results for 2022 and provided highlights on recent activities.

Wes Powell, Aimco President and Chief Executive Officer, comments: “Aimco had a solid first quarter and I offer my sincere thanks to our dedicated team for delivering strong results across each of our business segments. Our development planning and construction activities remain on track, and newly delivered apartment homes are leasing more quickly and at higher rental rates than originally planned. Our acquisitions team added four million square feet of phased development opportunities to an already deep pipeline, and our national portfolio of stabilized apartment properties remains highly occupied and is realizing strong revenue growth."

Mr. Powell continued, "At Aimco, our experienced local professionals and our disciplined development process have led to more predictable outcomes. We maintain a healthy balance sheet and have plans in place to smooth our debt maturity ladder, and reduce near-term repricing and refunding risk. Our allocation to stabilized apartment properties allows for the relatively frequent repricing of rents, a valuable tool during inflationary periods. Most importantly, while the near-term economic outlook is far from certain, the fundamentals of the country’s housing market put the Aimco platform and strategy in excellent position for long-term success.”

Lynn Stanfield, Aimco Chief Financial Officer, adds: “During the first quarter Aimco’s stabilized properties produced solid year-over-year growth with occupancy at 98.5%, up 90 bps, and net operating income of $24.6 million, up 14.3%. These communities, where approximately 50% of Aimco capital is currently invested, plus the strong Aimco balance sheet, provide stability and support to the investment platform."

Mrs. Stanfield continued, “Also in the first quarter, the successful recapitalization of the initial phase of development at Parkmerced gives us increased confidence that our mezzanine loan, secured by later phases of development at Parkmerced, is adequately collateralized. In April, Aimco made significant progress on its plan to refinance nearly $1 billion of debt, the majority of which comes due in the next two years, and reducing future refinancing risk.”

Financial Results and Recent Highlights

  • Net income attributable to common stockholders per share, on a fully dilutive basis, was $0.05 for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, compared to net income per share of $0.14 for the same period in 2021, due primarily to the change in fair market valuation of Aimco's interest rate options and entity investments.
  • The North Tower at Flamingo Point in Miami Beach, Florida reached stabilized occupancy in April, more than six months ahead of schedule and at rental rates more than 25% ahead of underwriting.
  • Initial demand for fully renovated apartment homes at The Hamilton in Miami, Florida has been strong. Aimco has pre-leased 17 homes in anticipation of initial apartment home deliveries scheduled to occur in the coming months, at rental rates ahead of underwriting.
  • Aimco secured two new development pipeline assets in South Florida with the potential to construct approximately four million square feet of phased, mixed-use developments.
  • First Quarter 2022 Revenue and NOI from Aimco’s Stabilized Operating Properties were up 9.4% and 14.3%, respectively, year over year, with occupancy of 98.5%, up 90 basis points year over year.
  • Aimco ended the first quarter with $298 million of liquidity, including cash and capacity on its revolving credit facility, net of letters of credit outstanding.
  • Aimco plans to restructure nearly $1 billion of debt, including $534 million of notes payable to AIR, funded with proceeds from (i) long-dated, fixed-rate, non-recourse financing, (ii) the disposition of one stabilized asset, and (iii) the unwind of the initial AIR leases by early 2023.

Value Add, Opportunistic & Alternative Investments:

Development and Redevelopment

Aimco generally seeks development and redevelopment opportunities where barriers to entry are high, target customers can be clearly defined, and Aimco has a comparative advantage over others in the market. Aimco’s Value Add and Opportunistic investments may also target portfolio acquisitions, operational turnarounds, and re-entitlements.

Aimco currently has eight active development and redevelopment projects, located across five U.S. markets, in varying phases of construction and lease-up. These projects remain on track, as measured by project-level budget and schedule, lease-up metrics, and current market valuations. During the first quarter, Aimco invested $65.7 million in development and redevelopment activities. Updates include:

  • At the North Tower of Flamingo Point in Miami Beach, Florida, construction is largely complete and the property is 98% occupied. The property reached stabilized occupancy in April, more than six months ahead of plan and at rental rates more than 25% ahead of underwriting.
  • The Fremont on the Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora, Colorado was 92% leased as of April 30, 2022, and is expected to reach stabilized occupancy in the third quarter of 2022.
  • Prism in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and 707 Leahy in Redwood City, California, reached stabilized occupancy in the second half of 2021.
  • Pre-leasing began at The Hamilton in Miami, Florida in anticipation of initial apartment home deliveries scheduled to occur in the coming months. As of April 30, 2022, 17 units had been pre-leased at rental rates ahead of underwriting.
  • At Upton Place in Northwest Washington, D.C., construction remains on schedule and on budget. As of April 30, 2022, more than 80% of the 106,000 square feet of planned retail space has been leased to two anchor tenants, more than 18 months ahead of delivery and at terms ahead of underwriting.
  • Construction continues on schedule and on budget at The Benson Hotel and Faculty Club in Aurora, Colorado and at our single-family rental project, Oak Shore, in Corte Madera, California.

Alternative Investments

Aimco makes alternative investments where it has special knowledge or expertise relevant to the venture and opportunity exists for positive asymmetric outcomes. Aimco’s current alternative investments include a mezzanine loan secured by a stabilized multi-family property with an option to participate in future multi-family development as well as three passive equity investments. Updates include:

  • Aimco’s $346 million mezzanine loan is secured by the Parkmerced stabilized multi-family property plus phases two through nine of the site's future development opportunity. Members of Aimco's borrower also own phase one, which was recently recapitalized by an alternative investment firm with $57 billion under management. The recapitalization provides the borrower with additional liquidity and added capacity to advance capital and service the first priority debt that is senior to the Aimco loan. It is now expected that the neighboring San Francisco State University will return to full in-person learning this fall, increasing the demand for the apartments that serve as collateral for our loan.
  • Aimco funded the remaining $14.2 million of a total commitment of a $50.0 million passive equity investment in IQHQ Inc., a life sciences developer.

Investment Activity

Aimco is focused on development and redevelopment, funded through joint ventures. Aimco will also consider opportunistic investments in related activities. In the first quarter 2022:

  • Aimco’s joint venture with The Kushner Companies closed on the previously announced acquisition of three undeveloped land parcels located in downtown Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The total purchase price for the land was $49 million ($25 million at Aimco’s 51% share) and current zoning allows for the development of approximately three million square feet of multifamily homes and commercial space. The venture is under contract to sell one of the parcels for $18.3 million, nearly double its allocation of the purchase price. The venture expects to close this sale in the third quarter of 2022.
  • Aimco formed a joint venture for the construction of approximately one million square feet of mixed-use development in the Edgewater neighborhood of Miami, Florida. Aimco has a 20% share of the joint venture, which includes the initial contribution of an eighth of an acre of land that Aimco purchased for $1.7 million in January 2022. The development site is situated as the gateway to Aimco’s Edgewater land assemblage and its redevelopment of The Hamilton. Aimco will serve as the development manager for the venture and expects to begin construction in 2023.
  • Aimco entered into a contract to acquire, for $100 million, a nine-acre development site in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The site is located in the rapidly growing Flagler Village neighborhood and allows for approximately three million square feet of phased, mixed-use development, which could contain up to 1,500 residential units at full build-out. Pursuant to the agreement, Aimco reserved funds for the transaction by placing $70 million of cash and $30 million in letters of credit into escrow. In conjunction with the purchase, Aimco entered into a short-term cancelable operating lease with the seller to obtain the development rights. Aimco plans to form a joint venture or joint ventures to execute the planned development activity.

Operating Property Results

Aimco owns a diversified portfolio of stabilized apartment communities located in ten major U.S. markets with average rents in line with local market averages. Aimco also owns one commercial office building that is part of an assemblage with an adjacent apartment building.

Aimco’s operating properties produced solid results for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.

  • Aimco made significant progress on a plan to restructure nearly $1 billion of debt, the majority of which comes due in the next two years, mitigating future refinancing risk. Once complete, Aimco expects its leverage to be primarily non-recourse property level debt either in fixed rate loans or floating with interest rate caps. Components of the plan include:
    • Aimco has rate-locked $555 million of property level loans with a weighted average term of 9.4 years and a weighted average fixed interest rate, net of monetized swaption proceeds, of 4.37%. Aimco estimates $320 million of proceeds, net of the repayment of existing property debt balances and prepayment penalties.
    • In early May, Aimco sold Pathfinder Village in Fremont, California for $127 million, ~8% more than in Aimco's estimated Net Asset Value calculation published in October 2021. Proceeds, net of the repayment of the existing property debt and transaction related costs, were $70 million.
    • Aimco reached agreement with AIR for the accelerated repayment of $534 million in notes, which carry a rate of 5.2%, prior to their maturity in January 2024. The early payoff is expected to be completed during the third quarter 2022. Aimco expects to incur approximately $24 million in associated spread maintenance costs.
    • Finally, Flamingo Point North Tower reached stabilized occupancy in April, allowing for lease termination and satisfaction of the $150 million construction loan by early 2023.
  • In the first quarter 2022, Aimco’s joint venture in Fort Lauderdale, Florida secured a $40 million loan ($20.4 million Aimco share) to facilitate the previously announced purchase of three land parcels for $49 million ($25 million Aimco share).
