PART I
Item 1. Business
Equity LifeStyle Properties, Inc.
General
Equity LifeStyle Properties, Inc. ("ELS"), a Maryland corporation, together with MHC Operating Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership") and its other consolidated subsidiaries (the "Subsidiaries"), are referred to herein as "we," "us," and "our." We elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust ("REIT"), for U.S. federal income tax purposes, commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 1993.
We are a fully integrated owner and operator of lifestyle-oriented properties ("Properties") consisting primarily of manufactured home ("MH") communities and recreational vehicle ("RV") resorts and campgrounds. We were formed in December 1992 to continue the property operations, business objectives and acquisition strategies of an entity that had owned and operated Properties since 1969.
We have a unique business model where we own the land upon which we provide our customers the opportunity to place factory built homes, cottages, cabins or RVs either permanently or on a long-term or short-term basis. Our customers may lease individual developed areas ("Sites") or enter right-to-use contracts which provide them access to specific Properties for limited stays. Compared to other types of real estate companies, our business model is characterized by low maintenance costs as well as low customer turnover costs. Our portfolio is spread through highly desirable locations with a focus on both retirement and vacation destinations attracting retirees, vacationing families, and second homeowners, while providing a lower cost home ownership alternative. We have more than 80 Properties with lake, river or ocean frontage and more than 100 Properties within 10 miles of the coastal United States.
We are one of the nation's largest real estate networks with a portfolio, as of December 31, 2016, of 391 Properties consisting of 146,610 residential Sites located throughout the United States and Canada. These Properties are located in 32 states and British Columbia.
Our Properties are designed and improved for home options of various sizes and designs that are produced off-site by third-party manufacturers, installed and set on designated Sites ("Site Set") within the Properties. These homes can range from 400 to over 2,000 square feet. Properties may also have Sites that can accommodate a variety of RVs. Properties generally contain centralized entrances, internal road systems and designated Sites. In addition, Properties often provide a clubhouse for social
activities and recreation and other amenities, which may include swimming pools, shuffleboard courts, tennis courts, pickleball courts, golf courses, lawn bowling, restaurants, laundry facilities, cable television and internet service. Some Properties provide utilities, including water and sewer service, through municipal or regulated utilities while others provide these services to customers from on-site facilities.
Employees and Organizational Structure
We have an annual average of approximately 4,100 full-time, part-time and seasonal employees dedicated to carrying out our operating philosophy while focusing on providing good service to our customers. Our Property operations are managed internally by wholly-owned affiliates of the Operating Partnership and are coordinated by an on-site team of employees that typically includes a manager, clerical staff and maintenance workers, each of whom works to provide maintenance and care to the Properties. The on-site team at each Property also provides customer service and coordinates lifestyle-oriented activities for customers. Direct supervision of on-site management is the responsibility of our regional vice presidents and regional and district managers who have substantial experience addressing the needs of customers and creating innovative approaches to maximize value and increase cash flow from property operations. Complementing the field management staff are approximately 400 full-time corporate and regional employees who assist in all functions related to the management of our Properties.
Our Formation
Our Properties are primarily owned by our Operating Partnership and managed internally by affiliates of our Operating Partnership. We contributed the proceeds from our initial public offering in 1993 and subsequent offerings to our Operating Partnership for a general partnership interest. The financial results of our Operating Partnership and our Subsidiaries are consolidated in our consolidated financial statements, which can be found beginning on page F-1 of this Form 10-K. In addition, since certain activities, if performed by us, may not be qualifying REIT activities under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), we have formed taxable REIT Subsidiaries, as defined in the Code, to engage in such activities.
Realty Systems, Inc. ("RSI") is a wholly owned taxable REIT subsidiary of ours which is engaged in the business of purchasing, selling or leasing Site Set homes that are located in Properties owned and managed by us. RSI also provides brokerage services to residents at such Properties who move from a Property but do not relocate their homes. RSI may provide brokerage services, in competition with other local brokers, by seeking buyers for the Site Set homes. Subsidiaries of RSI also operate ancillary activities at certain Properties, such as golf courses, pro shops, stores and restaurants. Several Properties are also wholly owned by our taxable REIT Subsidiaries.
Business Objectives and Operating Strategies
Our primary business objective is to maximize both current and long-term income growth. Our operating strategy is to own and operate the highest quality Properties in sought-after locations near retirement and vacation destinations and urban areas across the United States.
We focus on Properties that have strong cash flow and plan to hold such Properties for long-term investment and capital appreciation. In determining cash flow potential, we evaluate our ability to attract high quality customers to our Properties and retain these customers who take pride in the Property and in their homes. Our operating, investment and financing strategies include:
| |
• | Consistently providing high levels of services and amenities in attractive surroundings to foster a strong sense of community and pride of home ownership; |
| |
• | Efficiently managing the Properties to increase operating margins by increasing occupancy, maintaining competitive market rents and controlling expenses; |
| |
• | Increasing income and property values by strategic expansion and, where appropriate, renovation of the Properties; |
| |
• | Utilizing technology to evaluate potential acquisitions, identify and track competing properties and monitor existing and prospective customer satisfaction; |
| |
• | Selectively acquiring properties that have potential for long-term cash flow growth and creating property concentrations in and around retirement or vacation destinations and major metropolitan areas to capitalize on operating synergies and incremental efficiencies; |
| |
• | Managing our debt balances in order to maintain financial flexibility, minimize exposure to interest rate fluctuations and maintain an appropriate degree of leverage to maximize return on capital; and |
| |
• | Developing and maintaining relationships with various capital providers. |
These business objectives and their implementation are consistent with business strategies determined by our Board of Directors and may be subject to change or amendment at any time.
Acquisitions and Dispositions
Over the last decade we have continued to increase the number of Properties in our portfolio (including owned or partly owned Properties), from 311 Properties with over 112,956 Sites to 391 Properties with over 146,600 Sites. During the year ended December 31, 2016, we acquired four Properties (three RV resorts and one MH community) with approximately 2,400 Sites. We continually review the Properties in our portfolio to ensure they fit our business objectives. Over the last five years, we redeployed capital to properties in markets we believe have greater long-term potential by acquiring 21 Properties primarily located in retirement and vacation destinations and selling 12 Properties that were not aligned with our long-term goals.
We believe that opportunities for property acquisitions are still available. Based on industry reports, we estimate there are approximately 50,000 manufactured home properties and approximately 8,750 RV resorts (excluding government owned properties) in North America. Most of these properties are not operated by large owner/operators, and approximately 3,600 of the MH properties and 1,300 of the RV resorts contain 200 Sites or more. We believe that this relatively high degree of fragmentation provides us, as a national organization with experienced management and substantial financial resources, the opportunity to purchase additional properties. We believe we have a competitive advantage in the acquisition of additional properties due to our experienced management, significant presence in major real estate markets and access to capital resources. We are actively seeking to acquire and are engaged at any time in various stages of negotiations relating to the possible acquisition of additional properties, which may include outstanding contracts to acquire properties that are subject to the satisfactory completion of our due diligence review.
We anticipate that new acquisitions will generally be located in the United States, although we may consider other geographic locations provided they meet our acquisition criteria. We utilize market information systems to identify and evaluate acquisition opportunities, including the use of a market database to review the primary economic indicators of the various locations in which we expect to expand our operations.
Acquisitions will be financed from the most appropriate available sources of capital, which may include undistributed funds from operations, issuance of additional equity securities, sales of investments, collateralized and uncollateralized borrowings and issuance of debt securities. In addition, we have and expect to acquire properties in transactions that include the issuance of limited partnership interests in our Operating Partnership ("OP Units") as consideration for the acquired properties. We believe that an ownership structure that includes our Operating Partnership has and will permit us to acquire additional properties in transactions that may defer all or a portion of the sellers' tax consequences.
When evaluating potential acquisitions, we consider, among others, the following factors:
| |
• | Current and projected cash flow of the property and the potential for increased cash flow; |
| |
• | Geographic area and the type of property; |
| |
• | Replacement cost of the property, including land values, entitlements and zoning; |
| |
• | Location, construction quality, condition and design of the property; |
| |
• | Potential for capital appreciation of the property; |
| |
• | Terms of tenant leases or usage rights, including the potential for rent increases; |
| |
• | Potential for economic growth and the tax and regulatory environment of the community in which the property is located; |
| |
• | Potential for expansion, including increasing the number of Sites; |
| |
• | Occupancy and demand by customers for properties of a similar type in the vicinity and the customers' profiles; |
| |
• | Prospects for liquidity through sale, financing or refinancing of the property; |
| |
• | Competition from existing properties and the potential for the construction of new properties in the area; and |
| |
• | Working capital demands. |
When evaluating potential dispositions, we consider, among others, the following factors:
| |
• | Whether the Property meets our current investment criteria; |
| |
• | Our desire to exit certain non-core markets and recycle the capital into core markets; and |
| |
• | Our ability to sell the Property at a price that we believe will provide an appropriate return for our stockholders. |
When investing capital, we consider all potential uses of the capital, including returning capital to our stockholders. Our Board of Directors continues to review the conditions under which we may repurchase our stock. These conditions include, but are not limited to, market price, balance sheet flexibility, other opportunities and capital requirements.
Property Expansions
Several of our Properties have land available for expanding the number of Sites. Development of these Sites ("Expansion Sites") is evaluated based on the following factors: local market conditions; ability to subdivide; accessibility within the Property and externally; infrastructure needs including utility needs and access as well as additional common area amenities; zoning and entitlement; costs and uses of working capital; topography; and ability to market new Sites. When justified, development of Expansion Sites allows us to leverage existing facilities and amenities to increase the income generated from the Properties. Our acquisition philosophy includes owning Properties with potential for Expansion Site development. Approximately 87 of our Properties have expansion potential, with up to approximately 5,300 acres available for expansion. Refer to Item 2. Properties, which includes detail regarding the developable acres available at each property.
Leases or Usage Rights
At our Properties, a typical lease for the rental of a Site between us and the owner or renter of a home is month-to-month or for a one-year term, renewable upon the consent of both parties or, in some instances, as provided by statute. These leases are cancelable, depending on applicable law, for non-payment of rent, violation of Property rules and regulations or other specified defaults. Long-term leases that are non-cancelable by the tenant are in effect at approximately 7,600 Sites in 39 of our Properties. Some of these leases are subject to rental rate increases based on the Consumer Price Index ("CPI"), in some instances allowing for pass-throughs of certain items such as real estate taxes, utility expenses and capital expenditures. Generally, adjustments to our market rates, if appropriate, are made on an annual basis.
In Florida, in connection with offering a Site in a MH community for rent, the MH community owner must deliver to the prospective resident a Prospectus required by Florida Statutes Chapter 723.001, et. seq., which must be approved by the applicable regulatory agency. The Prospectus contains certain required disclosures regarding the community, the rights and obligations of the MH community owner and residents, and a copy of the lease agreement. A Prospectus may contain limitations on the rights of the MH community owner to increase rental rates. However, in the absence of such limitations, the MH community owner may increase rental rates to market, subject to certain advance notice requirements and a statutory requirement that the rental rates be reasonable. See further discussion below related to rent control legislation.
At Properties zoned for RV use, we have long-term relationships with many of our customers who typically enter into short-term rental agreements. Many resort customers also leave deposits to reserve a Site for the following year. Generally, these customers cannot live full time on the Property. At resort Properties operated under the Thousand Trails brand designated for use by customers who have entered a right-to-use or membership contract, the contract generally grants the customer access to designated Properties on a continuous basis of up to 14 days in exchange for annual dues payments. The customer may make a nonrefundable upfront payment to upgrade the contract which increases usage rights during the contract term. We may finance the nonrefundable upfront payment. Most of the contracts provide for an annual dues increase, usually based on increases in the CPI. Approximately 28.0% of current customers are not subject to annual dues increases in accordance with the terms of their contracts, generally because the customers are over 61 years old or meet certain other specified restriction criteria.
Regulations and Insurance
General. Our Properties are subject to a variety of laws, ordinances and regulations, including regulations relating to recreational facilities such as swimming pools, clubhouses and other common areas, regulations relating to providing utility services, such as electricity, and regulations relating to operating water and wastewater treatment facilities at certain of our Properties. We believe that each Property has all material permits and approvals necessary to operate. We renew these permits and approvals in the ordinary course of business.
Insurance. The Properties are insured against risks that may cause property damage and business interruption including events such as fire, flood, earthquake, or windstorm. The relevant insurance policies contain deductible requirements, coverage limits and particular exclusions. Our current property and casualty insurance policies, which we plan to renew, expire on April 1, 2017. We have a $100.0 million loss limit with respect to our all-risk property insurance program including named windstorms, which include, for example, hurricanes. This loss limit is subject to additional sub-limits as set forth in the policy form, including, among others, a $25.0 million aggregate loss limit for earthquakes in California. Policy deductibles primarily range from a $125,000 minimum to 5.0% per unit of insurance for most catastrophic events. A deductible indicates our maximum exposure, subject to policy limits and sub-limits, in the event of a loss.
Rent Control Legislation. At certain of our Properties, principally in California, state and local rent control laws limit our ability to increase rents and to recover increases in operating expenses and the costs of capital improvements. Enactment of such laws has been considered at various times in other jurisdictions. We presently expect to continue to maintain Properties, and may purchase additional properties, in markets that are either subject to rent control or in which rent-limiting legislation exists or may be enacted. For example, Florida law requires that rental increases be reasonable, and Delaware law requires rental increases
greater than the change in the CPI to be justified. Also, certain jurisdictions in California in which we own Properties limit rent increases to changes in the CPI or some percentage of CPI. As part of our effort to realize the value of Properties subject to restrictive regulation, we have initiated lawsuits at various times against various municipalities imposing such regulations in an attempt to balance the interests of our stockholders with the interests of our customers (See Item 3. Legal proceedings).
Membership Properties. Many states also have consumer protection laws regulating right-to-use or campground membership sales and the financing of such sales. Some states have laws requiring us to register with a state agency and obtain a permit to market (see Item 1A. Risk Factors). At certain of our Properties primarily used as membership campgrounds, state statutes limit our ability to close a Property unless a reasonable substitute Property is made available for members' use.
Industry
We believe that our Properties and our business model provide an opportunity for increased cash flows and appreciation in value. These may be achieved through increases in rental and occupancy rates, as well as expense controls, expansion of existing Properties and opportunistic acquisitions, for the following reasons:
| |
• | Barriers to Entry: We believe that the supply of new properties in locations we target will be constrained by barriers to entry. The most significant barrier has been the difficulty of securing zoning permits from local authorities. This has been the result of (i) the public's perception of manufactured housing, and (ii) the fact that MH communities and RV resorts generate less tax revenue than conventional housing properties because the homes are treated as personal property (a benefit to the homeowner) rather than real property. Further, the length of time between investment in a property's development and the attainment of stabilized occupancy and the generation of revenues is significant. The initial development of the infrastructure may take up to two or three years and once a property is ready for occupancy, it may be difficult to attract customers to an empty property. |
| |
• | Customer Base: We believe that properties tend to achieve and maintain a stable rate of occupancy due to the following factors: (i) customers typically own their own homes, (ii) properties tend to foster a sense of community as a result of amenities such as clubhouses and recreational and social activities, (iii) customers often sell their homes in-place (similar to site-built residential housing) with no interruption of rental payments to us, and (iv) moving a Site Set home from one property to another involves substantial cost and effort. |
| |
• | Lifestyle Choice: According to the Recreational Vehicle Industry Association ("RVIA"), in a survey conducted by the University of Michigan in 2011, approximately 8.9 million or 8.5% of U.S. households owned an RV. The 77 million people born from 1946 to 1964, or "baby boomers", make up the fastest growing segment of this market. According to Pew Research Center, every day 10,000 Americans turn 65 years old. We believe that this population segment, seeking an active lifestyle, will provide opportunities for our future cash flow growth. As RV owners age and move beyond the more active RV lifestyle, they will often seek more permanent retirement or vacation establishments. Site Set housing has become an increasingly popular housing alternative for retirement, second-home, and "empty-nest" living. According to 2014 U.S. Census Bureau National Population Projections figures, the population of people ages 55 and older is expected to grow 24% within the next 15 years. |
We believe that the housing choices in our Properties are especially attractive to such individuals throughout this lifestyle cycle. Our Properties offer an appealing amenity package, close proximity to local services, social activities, low maintenance and a secure environment. In fact, many of our Properties allow for this cycle to occur within a single Property.
| |
• | Construction Quality: The Department of Housing and Urban Development's ("HUD") standards for Site Set housing construction quality are the only federal standards governing housing quality of any type in the United States. Site Set homes produced since 1976 have received a "red and silver" government seal certifying that they were built in compliance with the federal code. The code regulates Site Set home design and construction, strength and durability, fire resistance and energy efficiency, and the installation and performance of heating, plumbing, air conditioning, thermal and electrical systems. In newer homes, top grade lumber and dry wall materials are common. Also, manufacturers are required to follow the same fire codes as builders of site-built structures. Although resort cottages, which are generally smaller homes, do not come under the same regulations, the resort cottages are built and certified in accordance with NFPA 1192-15 and ANSI A119.5-09 consensus standards for park model recreational vehicles and have many of the same quality features. |
| |
• | Comparability to Site-Built Homes: Since inception, the Site Set housing industry has experienced a trend toward multi-section homes. Current Site Set homes are up to 80 feet long and 30 feet wide and approximately 1,430 square feet. Many such homes have nine-foot ceilings or vaulted ceilings, fireplaces and as many as four bedrooms, and closely resemble single-family ranch-style site-built homes. At our Properties, there is an active resale or rental market for these larger homes. According to the 2015 U.S. Census American Community Survey, manufactured homes represent 9.3% of single-family housing units. |
| |
• | Second Home and Vacation Home Demographics: According to 2016 National Association of Realtors ("NAR") reports, sales of second homes in 2015 accounted for 35.0% of residential transactions, or 2.0 million second-home sales in 2015 and a typical vacation-home buyer earned $103,700 in 2015. According to 2014 NAR reports, there were approximately 8.0 million vacation homes in 2013 and a typical vacation-home buyer was 43 years old. According to the 2016 NAR reports, approximately 47.0% of vacation homes were purchased in the south; 25.0% were purchased in the west; 15.0% were purchased in the northeast; and 13.0% were purchased in the Midwest. Looking ahead, NAR believes that baby boomers are still in their peak earning years, and the leading edge of their generation is approaching retirement. As they continue to have the financial means to purchase a second home as a vacation property, investment opportunity, or perhaps as a retirement retreat, those baby boomers will continue to drive the market for second homes. We believe it is likely that over the next decade we will continue to see high levels of second home sales, and resort homes and cottages in our Properties will continue to provide a viable second-home alternative to site-built homes. |
Notwithstanding our belief that the industry information highlighted above provides us with significant long-term growth opportunities, our short-term growth opportunities could be disrupted by the following:
| |
• | Shipments: According to statistics compiled by the U.S. Census Bureau, manufactured home shipments have increased each year and are on pace for an eighth straight year of growth. Although new manufactured home shipments continue to be below historical levels, shipments in 2016 increased about 15.0% to 81,100 units as compared to shipments in 2015 of 70,500 units. According to the RVIA, wholesale shipments of RVs increased 15.1% in 2016 to approximately 430,700 units as compared to 2015, which continued a positive trend in RV shipments that started in late 2009. Certain industry experts have predicted that 2017 RV shipments will increase by about 4.4% as compared to 2016. |

1. | U.S. Census: Manufactured Homes Survey |
| |
• | Sales: Retail sales of RVs totaled approximately 367,600 in 2016, an 13.3% increase from 2015 RV sales of 324,400 and a 33.9% increase from 2014 RV sales of 274,600. We believe that consumers remain concerned about the current economy, and the potential for stagnant economic conditions in the future. However, the enduring appeal of the RV lifestyle has translated into continued strength in RV sales. According to RVIA, 8.9 million American households owned an RV in 2011. RV sales could continue to benefit as aging baby-boomers continue to enter the age range in which RV ownership is highest. RV dealers typically have relationships with third party lenders who provide financing for the purchase of an RV. |
| |
• | Availability of financing: Since 2008 only a few sources of financing have been available for manufactured home and RV manufacturers. In addition, the economic and legislative environment has made it difficult for purchasers of manufactured homes and RVs to obtain financing. Legislation enacted in 2010 known as the SAFE Act (Safe Mortgage Licensing Act) |
requires community owners interested in providing financing for customer purchases of manufactured homes to register as a mortgage loan originator in states where they engage in such financing. In comparison to financing available to purchasers of site-built homes, the few third party financing sources available to purchasers of manufactured homes offer financing with higher down payments, higher rates and shorter maturities, and loan approval is subject to more stringent underwriting criteria. During 2013 we entered into an agreement with an unaffiliated third party home manufacturer to create a joint venture, ECHO Financing, LLC, to buy and sell homes and purchase loans made by an unaffiliated lender to residents at our Properties.

| |
• | fluctuation in the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar to other currencies and its impact on foreign customers of our northern and southern Properties; |
| |
• | the attractiveness of our Properties to customers, competition from manufactured home communities and other lifestyle-oriented properties and alternative forms of housing (such as apartment buildings and site-built single family homes); |
| |
• | the ability of manufactured home and RV manufacturers to adapt to changes in the economic climate and the availability of units from these manufacturers; |
| |
• | the ability of our potential customers to sell or lease their existing site-built residences in order to purchase resort homes or cottages at our Properties, and heightened price sensitivity for seasonal and second homebuyers; |
| |
• | the possible reduced ability of our potential customers to obtain financing on the purchase of resort homes, resort cottages or RVs; |
| |
• | the ability of our potential customers to obtain affordable chattel financing from MH lenders; |
| |
• | government stimulus intended to primarily benefit purchasers of site-built housing; |
| |
• | our ability to collect rent, annual payments and principal and interest from customers and pay or control maintenance, insurance and other operating costs (including real estate taxes), which could increase over time; |
| |
• | unfavorable weather conditions, especially on holiday weekends in the spring and summer months, could reduce the economic performance at our resort Properties; |
| |
• | the failure of our assets to generate income sufficient to pay our expenses, service our debt and maintain our Properties, which may adversely affect our ability to make expected distributions to our stockholders or may result in claims including, but not limited to, foreclosure by a lender in the event of our inability to service our debt; |
| |
• | impact on the U.S. economic and regulatory environment as a result of recent U.S. presidential election; |
| |
• | changes in U.S. social, political, economic conditions, laws, governmental regulations (including rent control laws and regulations governing usage, zoning and taxes and chattel financing), and policies governing health care systems and drug prices, U.S. tax laws, foreign trade, manufacturing, and development and investment may adversely affect our financial condition and our business; |
| |
• | changes in laws and governmental regulations related to proposed minimum wage increases may adversely affect our financial condition; and |
| |
• | our ability to attract customers to enter new or upgraded right-to-use contracts and to retain customers who have previously entered right-to-use contracts. |
Economic Downturn in the States or Markets with a Large Concentration of Our Properties May Adversely Affect Our Cash Flows, Financial Condition and Ability to Make Distributions.
Our success is dependent upon economic conditions in the U.S. generally and in the geographic areas in which a substantial number of our Properties are located. Adverse changes in national economic conditions and in the economic conditions of the regions in which we conduct substantial business may have an adverse effect on the real estate values of our Properties, our financial performance and the market price of our common stock. As we have a large concentration of properties in certain markets, most notably Florida, California, and Arizona, adverse market and economic conditions in these areas of high concentration, which significantly affect such factors as occupancy and rental rates, could have a significant impact on our revenues, cash flows, financial condition and ability to make distributions. In a recession or under other adverse economic conditions, non-earning assets and write-downs are likely to increase as debtors fail to meet their payment obligations. Although we maintain reserves for credit losses and an allowance for doubtful accounts in amounts that we believe should be sufficient to provide adequate protection against potential write-downs in our portfolio, these amounts could prove to be insufficient.
Certain of Our Properties, Primarily our RV Resorts, are Subject to Seasonality and Cyclicality.
Some of our RV Resorts are used primarily by vacationers and campers. These Properties experience seasonal demand, which generally increases in the spring and summer months and decreases in the fall and winter months. As such, results for a certain quarter may not be indicative of the results of future quarters. In addition, as our RV Resorts are primarily used by campers and vacationers, economic cyclicality resulting in a downturn that affects discretionary spending and disposable income for leisure-time activities, as well as unfavorable weather conditions during the spring and summer months, could adversely affect our cash flows.
Competition for Acquisitions May Result in Increased Prices for Properties and Associated Costs and Increased Costs of Financing.
We expect that other real estate investors with significant capital will compete with us for attractive investment opportunities. These competitors may include other publicly traded REITs, private REITs, individuals, corporations, and other types of real estate investors. Such competition increases prices for Properties and can also result in increased fixed costs, such as real estate taxes. To the extent we are unable to effectively compete or acquire properties at a lower purchase price, our business may be adversely affected. Further, we expect to acquire Properties with cash from sources including but not limited to secured or unsecured financings, proceeds from offerings of equity or debt, offerings of OP Units, undistributed funds from operations and sales of investments. We may not be in a position or have the opportunity in the future to make suitable Property acquisitions on favorable terms. Increased competition can cause difficulties obtaining new financing or securing favorable financing terms.
New Acquisitions and Development Properties May Fail to Perform as Expected and the Intended Benefits of Our Acquisitions May Not Be Realized, Which Could Have a Negative Impact on Our Operations and the Market Price of Our Common Stock.
We intend to continue to acquire Properties. However, newly acquired Properties may fail to perform as expected and could pose risks for our ongoing operations including the following:
| |
• | integration may prove costly or time-consuming and may divert senior management's attention from the management of daily operations; |
| |
• | difficulties or inability to access capital or increases in financing costs; |
| |
• | we may incur costs and expenses associated with any undisclosed or potential liabilities; |
| |
• | development and expansion projects may include long planning and involve complex and costly activities; |
| |
• | unforeseen difficulties may arise in integrating an acquisition into our portfolio; and |
| |
• | we may acquire properties in new markets where we face risks associated with lack of market knowledge such as: understanding of the local economy, the local governmental and/or local permit procedures. |
As a result of the foregoing, we may underestimate the costs necessary to bring an acquired Property up to standards established for our intended market position. As such, we cannot assure you that any acquisitions that we make will be accretive to us in the near term or at all. Furthermore, if we fail to realize the intended benefits of an acquisition, the market price of our common stock could decline to the extent that the market price reflects those benefits.
In addition, we may periodically consider expansion activities which are subject to risks such as: construction costs exceeding original estimates; construction and lease-up delays resulting in increased construction costs; and lower than anticipated occupancy and rental rates causing a property to be unprofitable or less profitable than originally estimated.
Because Real Estate Investments Are Illiquid, We May Not be Able to Sell Properties When Appropriate.
Real estate investments generally cannot be sold quickly. We may not be able to vary our portfolio promptly in response to economic or other conditions, forcing us to accept lower than market value. This inability to respond promptly to changes in the performance of our investments could adversely affect our financial condition and ability to service debt and make distributions to our stockholders.
Our Inability to Sell or Rent Manufactured Homes Could Adversely Affect Our Cash Flows.
Selling and renting homes is a primary part of our business. Our ability to sell or rent manufactured homes could be adversely affected by any of the following factors:
| |
• | downturns in economic conditions disrupting the single family housing market; |
| |
• | local conditions, such as an oversupply of lifestyle-oriented properties or a reduction in demand for lifestyle-oriented properties; |
| |
• | increased costs to acquire homes; |
| |
• | the ability of customers to obtain affordable financing; and |
| |
• | demographics, such as the retirement of the "baby boomers", and their demand for access to our lifestyle-oriented Properties. |
Our Investments in Joint Ventures Could be Adversely Affected by Our Lack of Sole Decision-Making Authority Regarding Major Decisions, Our Reliance on Our Joint Venture Partners' Financial Condition, Any Disputes that may Arise Between Us and Our Joint Venture Partners and Our Exposure to Potential Losses from the Actions of Our Joint Venture Partners.
We have joint ventures with other investors. We currently and may continue in the future to acquire properties or make investments in joint ventures with other persons or entities when we believe circumstances warrant the use of such structures. Joint venture investments involve risks not present with respect to our wholly owned Properties, including the following:
| |
• | our joint venture partners might experience financial distress, become bankrupt or fail to fund their share of required capital contributions, which may delay construction or development of a property or increase our financial commitment to the joint venture; |
| |
• | our joint venture partners may have business interests or goals with respect to a property that conflict with our business interests and goals, which could increase the likelihood of disputes regarding the ownership, management or disposition of the property; and |
| |
• | we may be unable to take actions that are opposed by our joint venture partners under arrangements that require us to share decision-making authority over major decisions affecting the ownership or operation of the joint venture and any property owned by the joint venture, such as the sale or financing of the property or the making of additional capital contributions for the benefit of the venture. |
At times we have entered into agreements providing for joint and several liability with our partners. Frequently, we and our partners may each have the right to trigger a buy-sell arrangement, which could cause us to sell our interest, or acquire our partners' interest, at a time when we otherwise would not have initiated such a transaction. Any of these risks could materially and adversely affect our ability to generate and recognize attractive returns on our joint venture investments, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and distributions to our stockholders.
Our Success Depends, in part, on Our Ability to Attract and Retain Talented Employees.
Our ability to attract, retain and motivate talented employees could significantly impact our future performance. Competition for these individuals is intense, and we cannot assure you that we will retain our key officers and employees or that we will be able to attract and retain other highly qualified individuals in the future.
We Regularly Expend Capital to Maintain, Repair and Renovate Our Properties Which Could Negatively Impact Our Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
We may, or we may be required to, from time to time make significant capital expenditures to maintain or enhance the competitiveness of our Properties. There can be no assurances that any such expenditures would result in higher occupancy or higher rental rates.
Risks Relating to Governmental Regulation and Potential Litigation
Risks of Governmental Action and of Litigation.
We own Properties in certain areas of the country where the rental rates in our Properties have not increased as fast as the real estate values either because of locally imposed rent control or long term leases. In such areas, certain local government entities have at times investigated the possibility of seeking to take our Properties by eminent domain at values below the value of the underlying land. While no such eminent domain proceeding has been commenced, and we would exercise all of our rights in connection with any such proceeding, successful condemnation proceedings by municipalities could adversely affect our financial condition. Moreover, certain of our Properties located in California are subject to rent control ordinances, some of which not only severely restrict ongoing rent increases but also prohibit us from increasing rents upon turnover. Such regulations allow customers to sell their homes for a premium representing the value of the future rent discounts resulting from rent-controlled rents.
Tenant groups have filed lawsuits against us seeking to limit rent increases and/or seeking large damage awards for our alleged failure to properly maintain certain Properties or other tenant related matters (see Note 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional detail regarding these matters).
Laws and Regulations Relating to Campground Membership Sales and Properties Could Adversely Affect the Value of Certain Properties and Our Cash Flow.
Many of the states in which we do business have laws regulating right-to-use or campground membership sales. These laws generally require comprehensive disclosure to prospective purchasers, and usually give purchasers the right to rescind their purchase between three to five days after the date of sale. Some states have laws requiring us to register with a state agency and obtain a permit to market. We are subject to changes, from time to time, in the application or interpretation of such laws that can affect our business or the rights of our members.
In some states, including California, Oregon and Washington, laws place limitations on the ability of the owner of a campground property to close the property unless the customers at the property receive access to a comparable property. The impact of the rights of customers under these laws is uncertain and could adversely affect the availability or timing of sale opportunities or our ability to realize recoveries from Property sales.
The government authorities regulating our activities have broad discretionary power to enforce and interpret the statutes and regulations that they administer, including the power to enjoin or suspend sales activities, require or restrict construction of additional facilities and revoke licenses and permits relating to business activities. We monitor our sales and marketing programs and debt collection activities to control practices that might violate consumer protection laws and regulations or give rise to consumer complaints.
Certain consumer rights and defenses that vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction may affect our portfolio of contracts receivable. Examples of such laws include state and federal consumer credit and truth-in-lending laws requiring the disclosure of finance charges, and usury and retail installment sales laws regulating permissible finance charges.
In certain states, as a result of government regulations and provisions in certain of the right-to-use or campground membership agreements, we are prohibited from selling more than ten memberships per site. At the present time, these restrictions do not preclude us from selling memberships in any state. However, these restrictions may limit our ability to utilize Properties for public usage and/or our ability to convert Sites to more profitable or predictable uses, such as annual rentals.
Environmental Risks
Changes in Oil and Gasoline Prices May Have an Adverse Impact on Our Properties and the RV Industry.
In the event the cost to power RVs increases, customers may reduce the amount of time spent traveling in their RVs. This may negatively impact revenues at our Properties that target these customers.
We have Properties located in geographic areas that are dependent on the energy industry for jobs. In the event the local economies in these areas are negatively impacted by declining oil prices, we may experience reduced property occupancy or be unable to increase rental rates at such Properties.
Environmental and Utility-Related Problems are Possible and Can be Costly.
Federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment may require a current or previous owner or operator of real property to investigate and clean up hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum product releases at such property. The owner or operator may have to pay a governmental entity or third parties for property damage and for investigation and clean-up costs incurred by such parties in connection with the contamination. Such laws typically impose clean-up responsibility and liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of or caused the presence of the contaminants. Even if more than one person may have been responsible for the contamination, each person covered by the environmental laws may be held responsible for all of the clean-up costs incurred. In addition, third parties may sue the owner or operator of a site for damages and costs resulting from environmental contamination emanating from that site.
Environmental laws also govern the presence, maintenance and removal of asbestos. Such laws require that owners or operators of property containing asbestos properly manage and maintain the asbestos, that they notify and train those who may come into contact with asbestos and that they undertake special precautions, including removal or other abatement, if asbestos would be disturbed during renovation or demolition of a building. Such laws may impose fines and penalties on real property owners or operators who fail to comply with these requirements and may allow third parties to seek recovery from owners or operators for personal injury associated with exposure to asbestos fibers.
Utility-related laws and regulations also govern the provision of utility services. Such laws regulate, for example, how and to what extent owners or operators of property can charge renters for provision of utilities. Such laws also regulate the operations and performance of utility systems and may impose fines and penalties on real property owners or operators who fail to comply with these requirements. The regulations may also require capital investment to maintain compliance.
We Have a Significant Concentration of Properties in Florida and California, and Natural Disasters or Other Catastrophic Events in These or Other States Could Adversely Affect the Value of Our Properties and Our Cash Flow.
As of December 31, 2016, we owned or had an ownership interest in 391 Properties located in 32 states and British Columbia, including 125 Properties located in Florida and 49 Properties located in California. The occurrence of a natural disaster or other catastrophic event in any of these areas may cause a sudden decrease in the value of our Properties. While we have obtained insurance policies providing certain coverage against damage from fire, flood, property damage, earthquake, soil erosion, wind storm and business interruption, these insurance policies contain coverage limits, limits on covered property and various deductible amounts that we must pay before insurance proceeds are available. Such insurance may therefore be insufficient to restore our economic position with respect to damage or destruction to our Properties caused by such occurrences. Moreover, each of these coverages must be renewed every year and there is the possibility that all or some of the coverages may not be available at a reasonable cost. In addition, in the event of such a natural disaster or other catastrophic event, the process of obtaining reimbursement for covered losses, including the lag between expenditures we incurred and reimbursements received from the insurance providers, could adversely affect our economic performance.
We Face Possible Risks Associated With the Physical Effects of Climate Change.
We cannot predict with certainty whether climate change is occurring and, if so, at what rate. However, the physical effects of climate change could have a material adverse effect on our Properties, operations and business. For example, many of our Properties are located in the southeast and southwest regions of the United States, particularly in Florida, California and Arizona. To the extent climate change causes changes in weather patterns, our markets could experience increases in storm intensity and rising sea-levels. Over time, these conditions could result in declining demand for space in our Properties or our inability to operate them. Climate change may also have indirect effects on our business by increasing the cost of (or making unavailable) property insurance on terms we find acceptable, increasing the cost of energy and increasing the cost of snow removal or related costs at our Properties. Proposed legislation to address climate change could increase utility and other costs of operating our Properties which, if not offset by rising rental income, would reduce our net income. There can be no assurance that climate change will not have a material adverse effect on our Properties, operations or business.
Risks Relating to Debt and the Financial Markets
Debt Payments Could Adversely Affect Our Financial Condition.
Our business is subject to risks normally associated with debt financing. The total principal amount of our outstanding indebtedness was approximately $2.1 billion as of December 31, 2016, of which approximately $233.5 million, or 11.2%, matures
in 2017 and 2018. Our substantial indebtedness and the cash flow associated with serving our indebtedness could have important consequences, including the risks that:
| |
• | our cash flow could be insufficient to pay distributions at expected levels and meet required payments of principal and interest; |
| |
• | we might be required to use a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to pay our indebtedness, thereby reducing the availability of our cash flow to fund the implementation of our business strategy, acquisitions, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes; |
| |
• | our debt service obligations could limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we operate; |
| |
• | we may not be able to refinance existing indebtedness (which requires substantial principal payments at maturity) and, if we can, the terms of such refinancing might not be as favorable as the terms of existing indebtedness; |
| |
• | if principal payments due at maturity cannot be refinanced, extended or paid with proceeds of other capital transactions, such as new equity capital, our cash flow will not be sufficient in all years to repay all maturing debt; |
| |
• | prevailing interest rates or other factors at the time of refinancing (such as the possible reluctance of lenders to make commercial real estate loans) result in higher interest rates, increased interest expense would adversely affect net income, cash flow and our ability to service debt and make distributions to stockholders; |
| |
• | to the extent that any Property is cross-collateralized with any other Properties, any default under the mortgage note relating to one Property will result in a default under the financing arrangements relating to other Properties that also provide security for that mortgage note or are cross-collateralized with such mortgage note; and |
| |
• | the recent increase in the U.S. federal reserve funds rate will likely result in an increase in market interest rates, which may increase the costs of refinancing existing indebtedness or obtaining new debt. |
Ability To Obtain Mortgage Financing Or To Refinance Maturing Mortgages May Adversely Affect Our Financial Condition.
Lenders' demands on borrowers as to the quality of the collateral and related cash flows may make it challenging to secure financing on attractive terms or at all. If terms are no longer attractive or if financing proceeds are no longer available for any reason, these factors may adversely affect cash flow and our ability to service debt and make distributions to stockholders.
Financial Covenants Could Adversely Affect Our Financial Condition.
If a Property is mortgaged to secure payment of indebtedness, and we are unable to meet mortgage payments, the mortgagee could foreclose on the Property, resulting in loss of income and asset value. The mortgages on our Properties contain customary negative covenants, which among other things limit our ability, without the prior consent of the lender, to further mortgage the Property and to discontinue insurance coverage. In addition, our unsecured credit facilities contain certain customary restrictions, requirements and other limitations on our ability to incur indebtedness, including total debt-to-assets ratios, debt service coverage ratios and minimum ratios of unencumbered assets to unsecured debt. Foreclosure on mortgaged Properties or an inability to refinance existing indebtedness would likely have a negative impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
Our Degree of Leverage Could Limit Our Ability to Obtain Additional Financing.
Our debt-to-market-capitalization ratio (total debt as a percentage of total debt plus the market value of the outstanding common stock and OP Units held by parties other than us) was approximately 23.6% as of December 31, 2016. The degree of leverage could have important consequences to stockholders, including an adverse effect on our ability to obtain additional financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, development or other general corporate purposes, and makes us more vulnerable to a downturn in business or the economy generally.
We May Be Able To Incur Substantially More Debt, Which Would Increase The Risks Associated With Our Substantial Leverage.
Despite our current indebtedness levels, we may still be able to incur substantially more debt in the future. If new debt is added to our current debt levels, an even greater portion of our cash flow will be needed to satisfy our debt service obligations. As a result, the related risks that we now face could intensify and increase the risk of a default on our indebtedness.
Risks Related to Our Company Ownership
Provisions of Our Charter and Bylaws Could Inhibit Changes of Control.
Certain provisions of our charter and bylaws may delay or prevent a change of control or other transactions that could provide our stockholders with a premium over the then-prevailing market price of their common stock or Series C Preferred Stock or which might otherwise be in the best interest of our stockholders. These include the Ownership Limit described below. Also, any future series of preferred stock may have certain voting provisions that could delay or prevent a change of control or other transaction that might involve a premium price or otherwise be beneficial to our stockholders.
Maryland Law Imposes Certain Limitations on Changes of Control.
Certain provisions of Maryland law prohibit "business combinations" (including certain issuances of equity securities) with any person who beneficially owns 10% or more of the voting power of our outstanding common stock, or with an affiliate of ours, who, at any time within the two-year period prior to the date in question, was the owner of 10% or more of the voting power of our outstanding voting stock (an "Interested Stockholder"), or with an affiliate of an Interested Stockholder. These prohibitions last for five years after the most recent date on which the Interested Stockholder became an Interested Stockholder. After the five-year period, a business combination with an Interested Stockholder must be approved by two super-majority stockholder votes unless, among other conditions, our common stockholders receive a minimum price for their shares and the consideration is received in cash or in the same form as previously paid by the Interested Stockholder for shares of our common stock. The Board of Directors has exempted from these provisions under the Maryland law any business combination with Samuel Zell, who is our Chairman of the Board, certain holders of OP Units who received them at the time of our initial public offering, and our officers who acquired common stock at the time we were formed and each and every affiliate of theirs.
Conflicts of Interest Could Influence Our Decisions.
Certain stockholders could exercise influence in a manner inconsistent with stockholders' best interests. As of December 31, 2016, Mr. Samuel Zell and certain related entities, directly or indirectly, beneficially owned approximately 4.4% of our outstanding common stock. In addition, as of December 31, 2016, 4.3% of our outstanding common stock was indirectly owned by trusts, the trustee of which is Chai Trust Company, LLC (“Chai Trust”). Mr. Zell is not an officer or director of Chai Trust, does not have voting or dispositive power with respect to such shares and disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares, except to the extent of any pecuniary interest therein. The percentages set forth above include common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options and the exchange of OP Units. Mr. Zell is the chairman of our Board of Directors. Accordingly, Mr. Zell has significant influence on our management and operation. Such influence could be exercised in a manner that is inconsistent with the interests of other stockholders.
In addition, Mr. Zell and related entities continue to be involved in other investment activities. Mr. Zell and related entities have a broad and varied range of investment interests, including interests in other real estate investment companies that own other forms of housing, including multifamily housing. Mr. Zell and related entities may acquire interests in other companies. Mr. Zell may not be able to control whether any such company competes with us.
Risks Relating to Our Common and Preferred Stock
We Depend on Our Subsidiares' Dividends and Distributions.
Substantially all of our assets are owned indirectly by the Operating Partnership. As a result, we have no source of cash flow other than distributions from our Operating Partnership. For us to pay dividends to holders of our common stock and preferred stock, the Operating Partnership must first distribute cash to us. Before it can distribute the cash, our Operating Partnership must first satisfy its obligations to its creditors.
Market Interest Rates May Have an Effect on the Value of Our Common Stock.
One of the factors that investors consider important in deciding whether to buy or sell shares of a REIT is the distribution rates with respect to such shares (as a percentage of the price of such shares) relative to market interest rates. If market interest rates go up, prospective purchasers of REIT shares may expect a higher distribution rate. Higher interest rates would not, however, result in more of our funds to distribute and, in fact, would likely increase our borrowing costs and potentially decrease funds available for distribution. Thus, higher market interest rates could cause the market price of our publicly traded securities to go down.
Any Weaknesses Identified in Our Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Could Have an Adverse Effect on Our Stock Price.
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act 2002 requires us to evaluate and report on our internal control over financial reporting. If we identify one or more material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, we could lose investor confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports. which in turn could have an adverse effect on our stock price.
Our Depositary Shares, Which Represent Our 6.75% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock, Have Not Been Rated and are Subordinated to Our Debt.
We have not obtained and do not intend to obtain a rating for our depositary shares (the "Depositary Shares") which represent our 6.75% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock (the "Series C Preferred Stock"). No assurance can be given, however, that one or more rating agencies might not independently determine to issue such a rating or that such a rating,
if issued, would not adversely affect the market price of the Depositary Shares. In addition, the Depositary Shares are subordinate to all of our existing and future debt. As described above, our existing debt may restrict, and our future debt may include restrictions on, our ability to pay distributions to preferred stockholders or to make an optional redemption payment to preferred stockholders. The issuance of additional shares of preferred stock on parity with or senior to our Series C Preferred Stock represented by the Depositary Shares would dilute the interests of the holders of our Depositary Shares, and any issuance of preferred stock senior to our Series C Preferred Stock (and, therefore, the Depositary Shares) or of additional indebtedness could affect our ability to pay distributions on, redeem or pay the liquidation preference on our Depositary Shares. Other than the conversion rights afforded to holders of our preferred shares that may occur in connection with a change of control triggering event, none of the provisions relating to our preferred shares contain any provision affording the holders of our preferred shares protection in the event of a highly leveraged or other transaction, including a merger or the sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all our assets or business, that might materially and adversely affect the holders of our preferred shares, so long as the rights of the holders of our preferred shares are not materially and adversely affected.
Risks Relating to REITs and Income Taxes
We are Dependent on External Sources of Capital.
To qualify as a REIT, we must distribute to our stockholders each year at least 90% of our REIT taxable income (determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding any net capital gain). In addition, we intend to distribute all or substantially all of our net income so that we will generally not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on our earnings. Because of these distribution requirements, it is not likely that we will be able to fund all future capital needs, including acquisitions, from income from operations. We therefore will have to rely on third-party sources of debt and equity capital financing, which may or may not be available on favorable terms or at all. Our access to third-party sources of capital depends on a number of things, including conditions in the capital markets generally and the market's perception of our growth potential and our current and potential future earnings. It may be difficult for us to meet one or more of the requirements for qualification as a REIT, including but not limited to our distribution requirement. Moreover, additional equity offerings may result in substantial dilution of stockholders' interests, and additional debt financing may substantially increase our leverage.
We Have a Stock Ownership Limit for REIT Tax Purposes.
To remain qualified as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, not more than 50% in value of our outstanding shares of capital stock may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals (as defined in the federal income tax laws applicable to REITs) at any time during the last half of any taxable year. To facilitate maintenance of our REIT qualification, our charter, subject to certain exceptions, prohibits Beneficial Ownership (as defined in our charter) by any single stockholder of more than 5% (in value or number of shares, whichever is more restrictive) of our outstanding capital stock. We refer to this as the "Ownership Limit." Within certain limits, our charter permits the Board of Directors to increase the Ownership Limit with respect to any class or series of stock. The Board of Directors, upon receipt of a ruling from the IRS, opinion of counsel, or other evidence satisfactory to the Board of Directors and upon 15 days prior written notice of a proposed transfer which, if consummated, would result in the transferee owning shares in excess of the Ownership Limit, and upon such other conditions as the Board of Directors may direct, may exempt a stockholder from the Ownership Limit. Absent any such exemption, capital stock acquired or held in violation of the Ownership Limit will be transferred by operation of law to us as trustee for the benefit of the person to whom such capital stock is ultimately transferred, and the stockholder's rights to distributions and to vote would terminate. Such stockholder would be entitled to receive, from the proceeds of any subsequent sale of the capital stock we transferred as trustee, the lesser of (i) the price paid for the capital stock or, if the owner did not pay for the capital stock (for example, in the case of a gift, devise or other such transaction), the market price of the capital stock on the date of the event causing the capital stock to be transferred to us as trustee or (ii) the amount realized from such sale. A transfer of capital stock may be void if it causes a person to violate the Ownership Limit. The Ownership Limit could delay or prevent a change in control of us and, therefore, could adversely affect our stockholders' ability to realize a premium over the then-prevailing market price for their common stock or adversely affect the best interest of our stockholders.
Our Qualification as a REIT is Dependent on Compliance with U.S. Federal Income Tax Requirements.
We believe we have been organized and operated in a manner so as to qualify for taxation as a REIT, and we intend to continue to operate so as to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Our current and continuing qualification as a REIT depends on our ability to meet the various requirements imposed by the Code, which relate to organizational structure, distribution levels, diversity of stock ownership and certain restrictions with regard to owned assets and categories of income. If we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we are generally not subject to U.S. federal income tax on our taxable income that is distributed to our stockholders. However, qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes is governed by highly technical and complex provisions of the Code for which there are only limited judicial or administrative interpretations. In connection with certain transactions, we have received, and relied upon, advice of counsel as to the impact of such transactions on our qualification
as a REIT. Our qualification as a REIT requires analysis of various facts and circumstances that may not be entirely within our control, and we cannot provide any assurance that the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") will agree with our analysis or the analysis of our tax counsel. In particular, the proper U.S. federal income tax treatment of right-to-use membership contracts and rental income from certain short-term stays at RV communities is uncertain and there is no assurance that the IRS will agree with our treatment of such contracts or rental income. If the IRS were to disagree with our analysis or our tax counsel's analysis of various facts and circumstances, our ability to qualify as a REIT could be adversely affected.
In addition, legislation, new regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions might significantly change the tax laws with respect to the requirements for qualification as a REIT or the U.S. federal income tax consequences of qualification as a REIT. For example, the Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes Act (PATH Act) was enacted in December 2015, and included numerous law changes applicable to REITs. The provisions have various effective dates beginning as early as 2016. Investors are urged to consult their tax advisors with respect to these changes and the potential impact on their investment in our stock.
If, with respect to any taxable year, we failed to maintain our qualification as a REIT (and if specified relief provisions under the Code were not applicable to such disqualification), we would be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification was lost. If we lost our REIT status, we could not deduct distributions to stockholders in computing our net taxable income at regular corporate rates and we would be subject to U.S. federal income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on our net taxable incomes. If we had to pay U.S. federal income tax, the amount of money available to distribute to stockholders and pay indebtedness would be reduced for the year or years involved, and we would no longer be required to distribute money to stockholders. Although we currently intend to operate in a manner designed to allow us to qualify as a REIT, future economic, market, legal, tax or other considerations may cause us to revoke the REIT election.
Furthermore, we own a direct interest in certain subsidiary REITs which elected to be taxed as REITs under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code. Provided that each subsidiary REIT qualifies as a REIT, our interest in such subsidiary REIT will be treated as a qualifying real estate asset for purposes of the REIT asset tests, and any dividend income or gains derived by us from such subsidiary REIT will generally be treated as income that qualifies for purposes of the REIT gross income tests. To qualify as a REIT, the subsidiary REIT must independently satisfy all of the REIT qualification requirements. If such subsidiary REIT were to fail to qualify as a REIT, and certain relief provisions did not apply, it would be treated as a regular taxable corporation and its income would be subject to U.S. federal income tax. In addition, a failure of the subsidiary REIT to qualify as a REIT could have an adverse effect on our ability to comply with the REIT income and asset tests, and thus our ability to qualify as a REIT.
We May Pay Some Taxes, Reducing Cash Available for Stockholders.
Even if we qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we may be subject to some U.S. federal, foreign, state and local taxes on our income and property. Since January 1, 2001, certain of our corporate subsidiaries have elected to be treated as "taxable REIT subsidiaries" for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and are taxable as regular corporations and subject to certain limitations on intercompany transactions. If tax authorities determine that amounts paid by our taxable REIT subsidiaries to us are greater than what would be paid under similar arrangements among unrelated parties, we could be subject to a 100% penalty tax on the excess payments, and ongoing intercompany arrangements could have to change, resulting in higher ongoing tax payments. To the extent we are required to pay U.S. federal, foreign, state or local taxes or U.S. federal penalty taxes due to existing laws or changes to them, we will have less cash available for distribution to our stockholders.
Potential Changes to U.S. Tax Laws and Related Interpretations Could Adversely Impact Us.
Tax laws are under constant review by persons involved in the legislative process, at the Internal Revenue Service and the U.S. Department of Treasury, and by various state and local tax authorities. Publicly related statements signal that a high priority of the new Congress and administration may be meaningful reform of the Internal Revenue Code, including significant changes to taxation of business entities and the deductibility of interest expense and capital investment. A substantial lack of clarity exists around the likelihood, timing, and details of any such tax reform and the impact of any potential tax reform on us or an investment in our securities.
We cannot predict whether, when, in what forms, or with what effective dates, new U.S. federal tax laws, regulations, and administrative interpretations applicable to us or our shareholders may be changed. Any such change may negatively affect our liquidity, results of operations and business operations, and be adverse to our stockholders. You are urged to consult with your tax advisor with respect to the status of legislative, regulatory, or administrative developments and proposals and their potential effect on an investment in our shares.
Other Risk Factors Affecting Our Business
Some Potential Losses Are Not Covered by Insurance.
We carry comprehensive insurance coverage for losses resulting from property damage and environmental liability and business interruption claims on all of our Properties. In addition we carry liability coverage for other activities not specifically related to property operations. These coverages include, but are not limited to, Directors & Officers liability, Employer Practices liability, Fiduciary liability and Cyber liability. We believe that the policy specifications and coverage limits of these policies should be adequate and appropriate. There are, however, certain types of losses, such as punitive damages, lease and other contract claims that generally are not insured. Should an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of coverage limits occur, we could lose all or a portion of the capital we have invested in a Property or the anticipated future revenue from a Property. In such an event, we might nevertheless remain obligated for any mortgage debt or other financial obligations related to the Property.
Our current property and casualty insurance policies, which we plan to renew, expire on April 1, 2017. We have a $100 million loss limit with respect to our all-risk property insurance program including named windstorms, which include, for example, hurricanes. This loss limit is subject to additional sub-limits as set forth in the policy form, including, among others, a $25 million aggregate loss limit for an earthquake in California. Policy deductibles primarily range from a $125,000 minimum to 5% per unit of insurance for most catastrophic events. A deductible indicates our maximum exposure, subject to policy limits and sub-limits, in the event of a loss.
American with Disabilities Act Compliance Could be Costly.
Under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 ("ADA"), all public accommodations and commercial facilities must meet certain federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. Compliance with the ADA requirements could involve removal of structural barriers to access or use by disabled persons. Other federal, state and local laws may require modifications to or restrict further renovations of our Properties with respect to such accesses. Although we believe that our Properties are in compliance in all material respects with present requirements, noncompliance with the ADA or related laws or regulations could result in the United States government imposing fines or private litigants being awarded damages against us. Such costs may adversely affect our ability to make distributions or payments to our investors.
Fluctuations in the Exchange Rate of the U.S. dollar to Other Currencies, Primarily the Canadian dollar, May Impact Our Business.
Many of our southern and northern Properties earn significant revenues from Canadian customers who visit during the winter season. In the event the value of Canadian currency decreases relative to the U.S. dollar, we may see a decline in revenue from these customers.
We Face Risks Relating to Expanding Use of Social Media Vehicles and Cybersecurity Incidents that Could Cause Loss of Confidential Information and Other Business Disruptions.
We rely extensively on internally and externally hosted computer systems to process transactions and manage our business, and our business is at risk from and may be impacted by cybersecurity incidents. These could include attempts to gain unauthorized access to our data and computer systems or steal confidential information, including credit card information from our customers, breaches due to employee error, malfeasance or other disruptions. Attacks can be both individual and/or highly organized attempts organized by very sophisticated hacking organizations. We employ a number of measures to prevent, detect and mitigate these threats. While we continue to improve our cybersecurity and take measures to protect our business, there is no guarantee such efforts will be successful in preventing a cyber incident and that our financial results will not be negatively impacted by such an incident. A cybersecurity incident could compromise the confidential information of our employees, customers and vendors to the extent such information exists on our systems or on the systems of third party providers. Such an incident could result in potential liability, damage our reputation and disrupt and affect our business operations and result in lawsuits against us.
In addition, the use of social media could cause us to suffer brand damage or information leakage. Negative posts or comments about us or our Properties on any social networking website could damage our, or our Properties' reputations. In addition, employees or others might disclose non-public sensitive information relating to our business through external media channels. The continuing evolution of social media will present us with new challenges and risks.
Regulation of Chattel Financing May Affect Our Ability to Sell homes.
Since 2010, the regulatory environment has made it difficult for purchasers of manufactured homes and RVs to obtain financing. Legislation enacted in 2010 known as the SAFE Act (Safe Mortgage Licensing Act) requires community owners interested in providing financing for customer purchases of manufactured homes to register as a mortgage loan originator in states where they engage in such financing. In addition, the Dodd-Frank Act has amended the Truth in Lending Act and other consumer protection laws by adding requirements for residential mortgage loans, including limitations on mortgage origination activities,
restrictions on high-cost mortgages and new standards for appraisals. The law also requires lenders to make a reasonable investigation into a borrower's ability to repay a loan. These requirements make it more difficult for homeowners to obtain affordable financing, and especially for moderate income people to obtain smaller loans to purchase manufactured housing or RVs.
Interpretation of and Changes to Accounting Policies and Standards Could Adversely Affect Our Reported Financial Results.
Our accounting policies and methods are fundamental to the manner in which we record and report our financial condition and results of operations. Management must exercise judgment in selecting and applying many of these accounting policies and methods in order to ensure that they comply with generally accepted accounting principles and reflect management's judgment as to the most appropriate manner in which to record and report our financial condition and results of operations. In some cases, management must select the accounting policy or method to apply from two or more alternatives, any of which might be reasonable under the circumstances yet might result in reporting materially different amounts than would have been reported under a different alternative.
Additionally, the bodies that set accounting standards for public companies, including the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"), the SEC and others, periodically change or revise existing interpretations of the accounting and reporting standards that govern the way that we report our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. These changes can be difficult to predict and can materially impact our reported financial results. In some cases, we could be required to apply a new or revised accounting standard, or a revised interpretation of an accounting standard, retroactively, which could have a negative impact on reported results or result in the restatement of our financial statements for prior periods.
In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update no. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers," which will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP (see Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional detail regarding this recently issued guidance).
In 2008, we began entering right-to-use contracts. Customers who enter upgraded right-to-use contracts are generally required to make an upfront nonrefundable payment to us. We incur significant selling and marketing expenses to originate the right-to-use contract upgrades, and the majority of expenses must be expensed in the period incurred, while the related revenues and commissions are generally deferred and recognized over the expected life of the contract, which is estimated based upon historical attrition rates. The deferral period used for right-to-use contract is currently estimated to be 40 years. As a result, we may incur a loss from entering right-to-use contract upgrades, build up a substantial deferred revenue liability balance, and recognize substantial non-cash revenue in the years subsequent to originally entering the contract upgrades. The deferral period is reviewed periodically and beginning in 2016, was changed to 40 years. This accounting may make it difficult for investors to interpret the financial results from the entry of right-to-use contract upgrades. At the time we began entering right-to-use contracts and after corresponding with the Office of the Chief Accountant at the SEC, we adopted a revenue recognition policy for the right-to-use contracts in accordance with the Codification Topic "Revenue Recognition" ("FASB ASC 605").
In February 2016, the FASB issued ("ASU 2016-02") Leases. which will amend the existing accounting standards for lease accounting guidance in U.S. GAAP (see Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional detail regarding this recently issued guidance).

Item 2. Properties
General
Our Properties provide attractive amenities and common facilities that create a comfortable and attractive home for our customers, with most offering a clubhouse, a swimming pool, laundry facilities, cable television and internet service. Many also offer additional amenities such as sauna/whirlpool spas, golf courses, tennis, pickleball courts, shuffleboard and basketball courts, exercise rooms and various social activities. Since most of our customers generally own their home and live in our communities for a long time, it is their responsibility to maintain their homes and the surrounding area. It is our role to ensure that customers comply with our Property policies and to provide maintenance of the common areas, facilities and amenities. We hold periodic meetings with our Property management personnel for training and implementation of our strategies. The Properties historically have had, and we believe they will continue to have, low turnover and high occupancy rates.
Property Portfolio
As of December 31, 2016, we owned or had an ownership interest in a portfolio of 391 Properties located throughout the United States and British Columbia containing 146,610 residential Sites. A total of 126 of the Properties are encumbered by debt as of December 31, 2016 (see Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of this debt). The distribution of our Properties throughout the United States reflects our belief that geographic diversification helps to insulate the portfolio from regional economic influences. We intend to target new acquisitions in or near markets where our Properties are located and will also consider acquisitions of properties outside such markets.
Our two largest Properties as determined by property operating revenues are Colony Cove, located in Ellenton, Florida, and Viewpoint Resort, located in Mesa, Arizona. Each accounted for approximately 2.0% of our total property operating revenues, including deferrals, for the year ended December 31, 2016.
The following table sets forth certain information relating to the Properties we owned as of December 31, 2016, categorized according to major markets and excluding Properties owned through joint ventures. The total number of annual Sites presented for the RV communities represents Sites occupied by annual customers and are presented as 100% occupied. The annual rent for each year presented is the annualized December monthly Site rent per occupant. Subtotals by markets and grand totals for all markets are presented on a weighted average basis.

1. | Effective January 1, 2014, we adopted on a prospective basis Accounting Standard Update 2014-08, Property, Plant, and Equipment: Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity which changed the definition of discontinued operations. Under the new guidance the gain on sale of property recognized during the year ended December 31, 2014 did not meet the criteria of discontinued operations and accordingly it is presented as part of our continuing operations. |
| |
2. | Effective January 1, 2016 we adopted Accounting Standard Update 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs and Accounting Standard Update 2015-15, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements. As a result, we reclassified deferred financing costs to mortgage notes payable in the amount of $18.9 million, $16.1 million, $16.4 million and $15.6 million as of December 31, 2015, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. In addition, we reclassified deferred financing costs to term loan in the amount of $0.8 million, $1.0 million, $1.2 million and $1.6 million as of December 31, 2015, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Also, we reclassified deferred financing costs related to our unsecured line of credit to Escrow deposits, goodwill, and other assets, net in the amount of $3.7 million, $4.7 million, $2.3 million and $3.5 million as of December 31, 2015, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. |
| |
3. | In 2012, we issued 54,458 shares of Series C Preferred Stock which are represented by Depositary Shares. We also exchanged 5,445,765 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock for 5,445,765 Depositary Shares, each representing 1/100th of a share of Series C Preferred Stock. Also in 2012, we redeemed the remaining 2,554,235 shares of Series A Preferred Stock. |
| |
4. | In 2016, we sold 683,548 shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share, under our "at the market" ("ATM") equity offering Program at an average per share sales price of approximately $73.15 for gross cash proceeds of approximately $50.0 million before expenses of approximately $0.7 million. As of December 31, 2016, $75.0 million of common stock remained available for issuance under the ATM equity offering program. |

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in this Form 10-K for information regarding why we present funds from operations and normalized funds from operations and for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to net income available for Common Stockholders. |
Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with "Selected Financial Data" and the historical Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-K.
2016 Accomplishments
| |
• | Occupancy of manufactured home Sites within our Core Portfolio (as defined below) increased by 597 Sites to 94.0% as of December 31, 2016 compared to 93.1% as of December 31, 2015. |
| |
• | RV Revenue within our Core Portfolio increased by 5.9% as compared to 2015. |
| |
• | New home sales volume increased by 179 homes, or 37.4% as compared to 2015. |
| |
• | Closed on the acquisition of three RV resorts and one MH community for a total purchase price of approximately $120.5 million. |
| |
• | Raised our annual dividend to $1.70 per share in 2016, an increase of 13.3% compared to $1.50 per share in 2015. |
| |
• | Sold 683,548 shares for gross proceeds of $50.0 million through our at-the-market ("ATM") equity offering program. |
| |
• | Closed on approximately $88.1 million of refinancing proceeds on six Properties and paid maturing debt of approximately $41.8 million. After closing on these loans, our current debt balance has a weighted average maturity of 10.1 years and approximately 32.0% of our outstanding secured debt is fully amortizing. |
Overview and Outlook
Occupancy in our Properties, as well as our ability to increase rental rates, directly affects revenues. Our revenue streams are predominantly derived from customers renting our Sites on a long-term basis.
Our MH community Sites and annual RV resort Sites are leased on an annual basis. Seasonal Sites are leased to customers generally for one to six months. Transient Sites are leased to customers on a short-term basis. The revenue from seasonal and transient Sites is generally higher during the first and third quarters. We consider the transient revenue stream to be our most volatile as it is subject to weather conditions and other factors affecting the marginal RV customer's vacation and travel preferences. Sites designated as right-to-use Sites are primarily utilized to service the approximately 104,700 customers who have entered into right-to-use contracts. We also have interests in joint venture Properties for which revenue is classified as Equity in income from unconsolidated joint ventures in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. The following table shows the breakdown of our Sites by type (amounts are approximate):
|
| | |
| Total Sites as of |
| December 31, 2016 |
Community Sites | 71,000 |

| |
(1) | Includes approximately 5,700 Sites rented on an annual basis. |
| |
(2) | Includes approximately: 2,300 annual Sites, 400 seasonal Sites and 500 transient Sites. |
For the periods presented, our Core Portfolio ("Core Portfolio") consists of our Properties owned and operated during the entire period. This measure is useful to investors for annual comparison as it removes the fluctuations associated with acquisitions, dispositions and significant transactions or unique situations, which are included in income from property operations, excluding deferrals and property management. For the year ended December 31, 2016, property operating revenues in our Core Portfolio, excluding deferrals, were up 4.6% and property operating expenses in our Core Portfolio, excluding deferrals and property management, were up 3.2%, resulting in an increase in our Core Portfolio net operating income before deferrals and property management of 5.7%.
Our Core Portfolio occupancy consists of occupied home sites in our MH communities. Our Core Portfolio average occupancy was 93.5% for the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to 92.6% for the year ended December 31, 2015. Our historical high was 94.6% in 2000. In the years following the disruption in the site-built housing market, our home sales business was negatively affected by our customers' inability to sell their existing site-built homes and relocate to their retirement destination. As a result, we focused on home rental rather than sales as our primary source of occupancy upon turnover. At its peak, in 2013, rental occupancy represented almost 10.0% of our Core Portfolio occupancy. In recent years we have focused on the quality of occupancy growth by increasing the number of manufactured homeowners in our Core Portfolio. As of December 31, 2016, we increased occupancy of manufactured homes within our Core Portfolio by 597 sites with an increase in homeowner occupancy of
Management's Discussion (continued)
814 sites compared to occupancy at December 31, 2015. By comparison, as of December 31, 2015, our Core Portfolio occupancy increased by 473 sites with an increase in homeowner occupancy of 749 sites compared to occupancy at December 31, 2014.
As of December 31, 2016, we had 4,750 occupied rental homes, which represents 7.2% of our occupancy in our manufactured home communities. For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, home rental program net operating income was approximately $32.3 million and $32.8 million, respectively, net of rental asset depreciation expense of approximately $10.7 million for each of the comparative periods. Approximately $35.7 million and $36.6 million of home rental operations revenue was included in community base rental income for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively (see the Rental Operations tables in the sections below for additional detail regarding our rental activity). We believe at this time we compete effectively with other types of rentals (i.e., apartments). We continue to evaluate home rental operations and expect to continue to invest in additional units.
Approximately one third of our rental agreements on MH community Sites have rent increases that are directly or indirectly connected to published CPI statistics that are issued from June through September of the year prior to the increase effective date. Approximately one half of those rental agreements have a CPI floor of approximately 3.0%.
State and local rent control regulations affect 27 Properties, including 19 of our 49 California Properties, all of our seven Delaware Properties and one of our five Massachusetts Properties. The impact of the rent control regulations is to limit our ability to implement rent increases based on prevailing market conditions. The regulations generally permit us to increase rates by a percentage of the increase in the CPI, which may be national, regional or local, depending on the rent control ordinance. The limit on rent increases may range from 60.0% to 100.0% of CPI with certain maximum limits depending on the jurisdiction.
We continue to see population growth in our key markets, increased access to distribution channels for our products and a renewed willingness by our customers to commit to us for longer periods of time. We place homes in communities where we believe we can successfully sell homes. At these communities we have been successful at increasing home ownership and we continue to allocate capital to home purchases based on our assessment of market conditions. New home sales in our Core Portfolio increased 37.4% over the prior year. The recent new home sales have been primarily in our California, Colorado and Florida communities (see the Home Sales Operations tables in the sections below for additional detail regarding our home sales activity).
In the ordinary course of business, we acquire used homes from customers through purchase, foreclosure of a lien, or abandonment. We have seen a decrease in the number of homes coming back to us, which we believe generally means that our residents have the opportunity to resell their homes. While we continue to focus on selling homes, we continue to evaluate rental units, and based on market conditions, we expect to invest in additional new homes for customer rentals.
During 2013 we formed a joint venture, ECHO Financing, LLC (the "ECHO JV"), with a home manufacturer to buy and sell homes, as well as to purchase loans made by an unaffiliated lender to purchasers of such homes at our Properties. The ECHO JV may also rent homes to customers in our communities. We also have a limited program under which we purchase loans made by an unaffiliated lender to purchasers of homes at our Properties.
In the manufactured housing industry, chattel financing options available today include community owner funded programs or third party lender programs that provide subsidized financing to customers and require the community owner to guarantee losses upon customer defaults. Third party lender programs have stringent underwriting criteria, sizable down payment requirements, short loan amortization and high interest rates.
In our RV portfolio, we offer a variety of products that provide our customers the opportunity to place their housing unit, which may include RVs or resort cottages, either permanently or on a long-term or short-term basis at our Properties. We are focused on engaging with our existing customers and providing them the lifestyle they seek as well as attracting additional customers interested in our Properties. We continue to experience growth in our annual revenues in our Core RV portfolio as a result of our ability to increase rental rates and occupancy. Our 2016 Core Portfolio annual revenues were 5.7% higher than in 2015. Seasonal revenues and transient revenues increased 3.1% and 8.5%, respectively, over the prior year.
We also offer low-cost membership products in our RV business that focus on the installed base of approximately nine million RV owners. We offer a Thousand Trails Camping Pass ("TTC") (formerly Zone Park Pass), a right-to-use contract, which can be purchased for one to five geographic areas of the United States and requires an annual payment of $545. A single zone TTC requires no additional upfront payment while additional zones may be purchased for modest additional upfront payments. Since the introduction of low-cost membership products, we have entered into approximately 64,800 TTCs. Our renewal rate for these memberships is approximately 31.2%.
We have a program with RV dealers to provide the dealer with a TTC membership to give to their customers in connection with the purchase of an RV. No cash is received from the member during the first year of membership for memberships activated through the RV dealer program. Since inception, we have activated approximately 46,200 TTCs through the RV dealer program. Our renewal rate for these RV dealer memberships in 2016 is approximately 15.9%.

Existing customers are eligible to upgrade their right-to-use contract from time-to-time. An upgrade is distinguishable from a new right-to-use contract that a customer would enter by, depending on the type of upgrade, offering (1) increased length of consecutive stay by 50% (i.e., up to 21 days); (2) ability to make earlier advance reservations; (3) discounts on rental units; (4) access to additional Properties, which may include use of Sites at non-membership RV resorts and (5) membership in discount travel programs. Each upgrade contract requires a nonrefundable upfront payment. We offer financing for the nonrefundable upfront payment to eligible customers.
We believe our RV customer base is loyal and engaged in the lifestyle we offer at our Properties. We have annual customers who have stayed with us for more than ten years and our member base includes members who have camped with us for more than twenty years. Our social media presence has increased within this member base and we have also been successful at providing a venue for our customers to promote our Properties by encouraging them to share their memories of their experiences at our resorts. 2016 is the third full year of enhanced marketing campaigns to drive traffic to our properties and websites. In that time period, we have tripled our social media fan base to the current level of 340,000. Our annual online visitors have doubled, and we have tripled our RV reservations booked online.

Qualification as a REIT
We believe that we have qualified for taxation as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") for U.S. federal income tax purposes since our taxable year ended December 31, 1993. We plan to continue to meet the requirements for taxation as a REIT. Many of these requirements, however, are highly technical and complex and concern the ownership of our outstanding stock, the nature of our assets, the sources of our income and the amount of our distributions to our stockholders. The fact that we hold our assets through our Operating Partnership and our Subsidiaries further complicates the application of the REIT requirements.
If we fail to qualify as a REIT and are unable to correct such failure we would be subject to U.S. federal income tax at regular corporate rates. Also, unless the IRS granted us relief under certain statutory provisions, we would remain disqualified as a REIT for four years following the year we first failed to qualify. Even if we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we are subject to certain foreign, state and local taxes on our income and property and U.S. federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed income.
Recent U.S. Federal Income Tax Legislation
On December 18, 2015, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2016 was enacted; an omnibus spending bill, with a division referred to as the Protecting Americans From Tax Hikes Act of 2015 (the "PATH Act"). The PATH Act changes certain of the rules affecting REIT qualification and taxation of REITs and REIT shareholders, which are briefly summarized below.
| |
• | For taxable years beginning after 2017, the percentage of a REIT's total assets that may be represented by securities of one or more taxable REIT Subsidiaries ("TRSs") is reduced from 25% to 20%. |
| |
• | "Publicly offered REITs" (which generally include any REIT required to file annual and periodic reports with the SEC, including us) are no longer subject to the preferential dividend rules for taxable years beginning after 2014. |
| |
• | For taxable years beginning after 2015, debt instruments issued by publicly offered REITs are qualifying assets for purposes of the 75% REIT asset test. However, no more than 25% of the value of a REIT's assets may consist of debt instruments that are issued by publicly offered REITs that are not otherwise treated as real estate assets, and interest on debt of a publicly offered REIT will not be qualifying income under the 75% REIT gross income test unless the debt is secured by real property. |
| |
• | For taxable years beginning after 2015, to the extent rent attributable to personal property is treated as rents from real property (because rent attributable to the personal property for the taxable year does not exceed 15% of the total rent for the taxable year for such real and personal property), the personal property will be treated as a real estate asset for purposes of the 75% REIT asset test. Similarly, a debt obligation secured by a mortgage on both real and personal property will be treated as a real estate asset for purposes of the 75% asset test, and interest thereon will be treated as interest on an obligation secured by real property, if the fair market value of the personal property does not exceed 15% of the fair market value of all property securing the debt. |
Management's Discussion (continued)
| |
• | For taxable years beginning after 2015, a 100% excise tax will apply to "redetermined services income," i.e., non-arm's-length income of a REIT's TRS attributable to services provided to, or on behalf of, the REIT (other than services provided to REIT tenants, which are potentially taxed as redetermined rents). |
| |
• | The rate of withholding tax applicable under FIRPTA to certain sales and other dispositions of U.S. real property interests ("USRPIs") by non-U.S. persons, and certain distributions from corporations whose stock may constitute a USRPI, is increased from 10% to 15% for dispositions and distributions occurring after February 16, 2016. Our common stock may constitute a USRPI to some holders because more than 50% of our assets consist of interests in real property located in the United States. |
| |
• | For dispositions and distributions on or after December 18, 2015, the stock ownership thresholds for exemption from FIRPTA taxation on sale of stock of a publicly traded REIT and for recharacterizing capital gain dividends received from a publicly traded REIT as ordinary dividends is increased from not more than 5% to not more than 10%. |
| |
• | Effective December 18, 2015, certain look-through, presumption, and other rules will apply for purposes of determining if we qualify as domestically controlled. |
| |
• | For dispositions and distributions after December 18, 2015, certain "qualified foreign pension funds" satisfying certain requirements, as well as entities that are wholly owned by a qualified foreign pension fund, are exempt from income and withholding taxes applicable under FIRPTA. In addition, new FIRPTA rules apply to ownership of REIT shares by "qualified shareholders," which generally include publicly traded non-U.S. stockholders meeting certain requirements. |
| |
• | For taxable years beginning after 2014, the period during which dispositions of properties with net built-in gains from C corporations in carry-over basis transactions will trigger the built-in gains tax is reduced from ten years to five years. |
Supplemental Measures
Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations include certain non-GAAP financial measures that in management's view of the business we believe are meaningful as they allow the investor the ability to understand key operating details of our business both with and without regard to certain accounting conventions or items that may not always be indicative of recurring annual cash flow of the portfolio. These non-GAAP financial measures as determined and presented by us may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, and include Income from property operations, Funds from Operations ("FFO") and Normalized Funds from Operations ("Normalized FFO"). We believe investors should review FFO, Normalized FFO and Income from property operations, along with GAAP net income and cash flow from operating activities, investing activities and financing activities, when evaluating an equity REIT's operating performance. A discussion of FFO, Normalized FFO and a reconciliation to net income are included in the presentation of FFO following our "Results of Operations."
Income from property operations represents rental income, utility income and right-to-use income less property operating and maintenance, real estate taxes, sales and marketing, and property management expenses. We believe that Income from property operations is helpful to investors and analysts as a direct measure of the actual operating results of our manufactured home and RV communities.
The following table reconciles Income from property operations to Income from continuing operations before equity in income of unconsolidated joint ventures and gain on sale of property for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 (amounts in thousands):

__________________________
(1) Non-GAAP measure.
The increase in total portfolio Income from property operations is primarily due to increases in both Core and Non-Core community base rental income, resort base rental income, as well as increased utility and other income. The increase in Property operating revenues, excluding deferrals, is partially offset by increases in Property operating and maintenance expense and real estate taxes.
The 4.6% increase in Core Portfolio community base rental income primarily reflects a 3.7% growth from rate increases and a 0.9% growth from occupancy gains. The average monthly base rent per site in our Core portfolio increased to approximately $590 in 2016 from approximately $569 in 2015. The average occupancy for the Core Portfolio increased to 93.5% in 2016 from 92.6% in 2015.
Resort base rental income is comprised of the following (amounts in thousands):

Right-to-use contracts current period, gross, net of sales and marketing, gross, decreased as a result of a lower number of upgrade sales by our third party sales agent. During the year ended December 31, 2016, there were 2,477 upgrade sales with an average price per sale of $4,978. This compares to 2,687 upgrade sales with an average price per sale of $4,745 for the year ended December 31, 2015.
The increase in Property operating and maintenance expenses was primarily driven by increased repairs and maintenance, Property payroll and utility expense. The increase in repairs and maintenance is largely due to extraordinary repairs and maintenance, specifically storm debris clean-up costs and a marina fire. Additionally, repairs and maintenance increased due to excess water hauling due to significant rainfall in the South region. The increase in Property payroll is driven by annual salary increases, while the increase in utility expense is primarily driven by increases in sewer, water and trash expenses at certain Properties, and is offset by the increase in utility recoveries reflected in utility and other income.

At December 31, 2016, other expenses decreased $13.2 million as compared to December 31, 2015. The variance from prior year is driven by approximately $17.0 million of early debt retirement fees associated with defeasance and prepayment activity during the first quarter of 2015 (see Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional detail regarding our first quarter of 2015 defeasance and refinancing activity). Additionally, interest and related amortization decreased compared to the prior year due to the decrease in secured debt related to refinancing and payment activity as well as lower weighted average interest rates.
These decreases are partially offset by increases in depreciation on real estate and rental homes and property rights initiatives and other, net. These expenses increased due to higher capital expenditures, 2016 acquisitions properties (see Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional detail regarding our recent acquisition activity) as well as $2.4 million related to resolution of the California lawsuits (see Note 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional detail regarding these matters).

(1) Non-GAAP measure.
The increase in total portfolio Income from property operations was primarily due to increases in Core community base rental income, Core resort base rental income, the contribution from property operations related to the 2014 and 2015 acquisitions as well as increased utility and other income. The increase was partially offset by an overall increase in expenses, with the most significant relating to payroll, repair and maintenance, and property taxes.
The 3.5% increase in Core Portfolio community base rental income primarily reflected a 2.9% growth from rate increases and a 0.6% growth from occupancy gains. The average monthly base rent per site increased to approximately $569 in 2015 from approximately $553 in 2014. The average occupancy increased to 92.6% in 2015 from 92.2% in 2014.

Right-to-use contracts current period, gross, net of sales and marketing, gross, decreased as a result of a lower number of upgrade sales by our third party sales agent. During the year ending December 31, 2015, there were 2,687 upgrade sales with an average price per sale of $4,745. This compares to 2,978 upgrade sales with an average price per sale of $4,665 for the year ended December 31, 2014.
Management's Discussion (continued)
The increase in Property operating and maintenance expenses was primarily driven by increased Property payroll and repairs and maintenance expenses. The increase in Property payroll was primarily driven by increased overtime and additional employees in the the current year as well as annual salary increases, while the increase in repair and maintenance was largely due to certain storm events in Texas, California, and North Carolina, higher cabin rental maintenance, and an overall increase in general maintenance supplies expenses.

The decrease in income from home sales operations and other was primarily due to lower gross profits from new home sales due to a decrease in sales in the California region where Properties are fully occupied. Increased home selling expenses also contributed to the overall decrease, offset by increased income from ancillary services, which include retail sales at various Properties.

Depreciation on real estate and rental homes increased primarily due to increased capital expenditures and the acquisitions that occurred during the second half of 2014 and the first half of 2015 (see Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional detail regarding our acquisition activity).
General and administrative expenses increased primarily due to the 2015 restricted stock awards, increased legal fees as well as an increase in insurance expense (see Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional detail regarding our stock-based compensation plan).
Management's Discussion (continued)
Early debt retirement expenses increased as a result of the defeasance and prepayment activity that occurred during the first quarter of 2015, this compares to the $5.1 million fee associated with the early debt retirement of the loan secured by our Colony Cove community incurred in 2014 (see Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional detail regarding our first quarter defeasance and refinancing activity).
A decrease in secured debt, resulting from the aforementioned refinancing and prepayment activity, and lower weighted average interest rates contributed to the decrease in interest and related amortization.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
Our primary demands for liquidity include payment of operating expenses, debt service, including principal and interest, capital improvements on properties, purchasing both new and pre-owned homes, acquisitions of new Properties, and distributions. We expect similar demands for liquidity will continue for the short-term and long-term. Our primary sources of cash include operating cash flows, proceeds from financings, borrowings under our unsecured Line of Credit ("LOC") and proceeds from issuance of equity and debt securities.
On May 4, 2015, we extended our at the market ("ATM") equity offering program by entering into new separate equity distribution agreements with certain sales agents, pursuant to which we may sell, from time-to-time, shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share, having an aggregate offering price of up to $125.0 million. For the year ended December 31, 2016, we sold 683,548 shares of our common stock under the ATM equity offering program for gross cash proceeds of approximately $50.0 million before expenses of approximately $0.7 million. As of December 31, 2016, $75.0 million of common stock remained available for issuance under the ATM equity offering program. In addition, we have available liquidity in the form of authorized and unissued preferred stock of approximately 9.9 million shares and approximately 114.5 million shares of authorized but unissued common stock registered for sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, by a shelf registration statement which was automatically effective when filed with the SEC. Our charter allows us to issue up to 200.0 million shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share and up to 10.0 million shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share.
One of our stated objectives is to maintain financial flexibility. Achieving this objective allows us to take advantage of strategic opportunities that may arise. We believe effective management of our balance sheet, including maintaining various access points to raise capital, manage future debt maturities and borrow at competitive rates enables us to meet this objective. We believe we currently have sufficient liquidity, in the form of $51.1 million in available cash, net of restricted cash, as of December 31, 2016 and $400.0 million available on our LOC, to satisfy our near term obligations. Our LOC has a borrowing capacity of $400.0 million with the option to increase the borrowing capacity by $100.0 million, subject to certain conditions (see Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).
We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements, including distributions for the next twelve months, generally through available cash as well as net cash provided by operating activities and availability under our existing LOC. We consider these resources to be adequate to meet our operating requirements for capital improvements, amortizing debt and payment of dividends and distributions.
We expect to meet certain long-term liquidity requirements, such as scheduled debt maturities, property acquisitions and capital improvements by use of our current cash balance, long-term collateralized and uncollateralized borrowings including borrowings under the existing LOC and the issuance of debt securities or additional equity securities, in addition to net cash provided by operating activities. We expect to satisfy our 2017 maturities with existing cash, anticipated operating cash flow and/or refinancing proceeds.
During the year ended December 31, 2016, we closed on loans with gross proceeds of $88.1 million. The loans have a weighted average maturity of 23 years and carry a weighted average interest rate of 4.01% per annum and were secured by four manufactured home properties and two RV resorts. We also paid off five maturing mortgage loans of approximately $41.8 million, with a weighted average interest rate of 5.85% per annum, secured by three manufactured home properties and two RV resorts.
In connection with the acquisition completed in June 2016, we assumed approximately $22.6 million of mortgage debt secured by the Forest Lake Estates manufactured home community with a stated interest rate of 4.51% per annum, which is set to mature in 2038.

Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities increased $0.4 million to $353.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2016 from $352.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2015. The overall increase in net cash provided by operating activities is primarily due to an increase in Income from property operations of $27.6 million and an increase of $4.7 million in Accrued expenses and accounts payable, offset by a decrease in Escrow deposits, goodwill and other assets of $20.4 million and a decrease of $4.4 million in Rents received in advance and security deposits. Net cash provided by operating activities increased $67.2 million to $352.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2015 from $285.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. The overall increase in net cash provided by operating activities is primarily due to an increase in Income from property operations of $25.8 million, an increase in Escrow deposits, goodwill and other assets of $21.9 million, and an increase of $10.9 million in Accrued expenses and accounts payable.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $218.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2016 compared to $120.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2015. Significant components of net cash used in investing activities include:
| |
• | We paid approximately $98.4 million (net of mortgage debt assumed of $22.6 million) in 2016 to acquire Rose Bay RV Resort, Portland Fairview, Forest Lakes Estates and Riverside RV, which resulted in an additional 1,483 RV Sites and 894 manufactured home Sites, as well as vacant land in Florida for $2.0 million. We paid approximately $23.7 million in 2015 to acquire the Bogue Pines manufactured home property, Whispering Pines RV Resort, and Miami Everglades RV Resort, which resulted in an additional 731 Sites (see Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of our recent acquisitions). |
| |
• | We contributed approximately $5.0 million to the ECHO JV in 2016 compared to the $4.0 million we contributed in 2015. Additionally, during the years ended 2016 and 2015, we received $5.9 million and $3.7 million, respectively, in distributions from various joint ventures. Approximately $1.4 million, of the distributions made to us for the year ended December 31, 2015, using proceeds generated by refinancing transactions, exceeded our basis in our joint venture and, as such, were recorded as income (see Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of our joint ventures). |
| |
• | We received approximately $10.2 million of repayments on notes receivable in 2016 compared to $10.5 million in 2015 partially offset by new notes receivable of $10.3 million in 2016 compared to $9.8 million in 2015. |
| |
• | We paid approximately $119.4 million and $93.8 million for capital improvements for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively (see Capital Improvements table below). |

Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities was $158.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2016 compared to net cash used in financing activities of $225.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2015. Significant components of net cash used in financing activities include:
| |
• | We received $88.1 million in financing proceeds in 2016 compared to $395.3 million in financing proceeds in 2015 (see Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of our borrowing arrangements). |
| |
• | We paid approximately $39.6 million of amortizing principal debt, approximately $103.1 million of maturing mortgages and loan refinancing activity and paid approximately $1.4 million in debt issuance costs in 2016. This compares to approximately $37.4 million of amortizing principal debt, approximately $48.7 million of maturing mortgages, defeased approximately $370.2 million of debt and paid approximately $24.1 million in debt issuance and defeasance costs as well as early debt retirement costs in 2015 (see Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of our borrowing arrangements). |
| |
• | We sold 683,548 shares of our common stock under the ATM equity offering program for gross cash proceeds of approximately $50.0 million before expenses during the year ended December 31, 2016 (see Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of our equity transactions). |
| |
• | We made distributions of approximately $161.2 million in 2016 to common stockholders, common OP Unitholders and preferred stockholders and paid approximately $1.1 million for offering costs and other expenses, offset by proceeds received of approximately $12.6 million from the exercise of stock options and the sale of shares through the employee stock purchase plan (see Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of our equity transactions). |
| |

(1) | Balance excludes note premiums of $5.5 million and unamortized deferred financing costs of $18.9 million. Balances include debt maturing and scheduled periodic payments. |

| |
(3) | As of December 31, 2016, assumes we will not exercise our one year extension option on July 17, 2018 and assumes we will maintain our current leverage ratios as defined by the LOC. |
| |
(4) | We also lease land under non-cancelable operating leases at certain of the Properties expiring in various years from 2017 to 2054. The majority of the lease terms require twelve equal payments per year plus additional rents calculated as a percentage of gross revenues. |
| |
(5) | We do not include insurance, property taxes and cancelable contracts in the contractual obligations table. |
We believe that we will be able to refinance our maturing debt obligations on a secured or unsecured basis; however, to the extent we are unable to refinance our debt as it matures, we believe that we will be able to repay such maturing debt through available cash as well as operating cash flow, asset sales and/or the proceeds from equity issuances. With respect to any refinancing of maturing debt, our future cash flow requirements could be impacted by significant changes in interest rates or other debt terms, including required amortization payments. As of December 31, 2016, approximately 32.0% of our outstanding secured debt is fully amortizing.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the related disclosures. We believe that the following critical accounting policies, among others, affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements (see Note 2 of the notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a summary of our significant accounting policies).
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and unconsolidated joint ventures
We review our Properties for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the Property may not be recoverable. Real estate investments are subject to varying degrees of risk. Several factors may adversely affect the economic performance and value of our real estate investments. These factors include:
•general economic climate;
•competition from other housing options;
•local conditions, such as an increase in unemployment;
•changes in governmental regulations and the related cost of compliance;
•changes in market rental rates; and
•physical damage or environmental indicators.
Any adverse changes in these factors could cause an impairment in our assets, including real estate and investments in unconsolidated joint venture partnerships.
Revenue Recognition and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
In conjunction with the acquisition of the Thousand Trails business, we account for the entry of right-to-use contracts in accordance with the Codification Topic "Revenue Recognition" ("FASB ASC 605") based on correspondence with the Office of the Chief Accountant at the SEC. A right-to-use contract gives the customer the right to a set schedule of usage at a specified group
Management's Discussion (continued)
of Properties. Customers may choose to upgrade their contracts to increase their usage and the number of Properties they may access. A contract requires the customer to make annual payments during the term of the contract and may require an upfront nonrefundable payment. The stated term of a right-to-use contract is at least one year and the customer may renew his contract by continuing to make the annual payments. We will recognize the upfront nonrefundable payments over the estimated customer life. For 2016, the customer life was estimated to be 40 years and was based upon our experience operating the membership platform since 2008. For example, we have currently estimated that 6.7% of customers who enter a new right-to-use contract will terminate their contract after the fifth year. Therefore, the upfront nonrefundable payments from 6.7% of the upgrade contracts entered in any particular period are amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of five years as five years is the estimated customer life for 6.7% of our customers who enter a contract. The historical attrition rates for upgrade contracts are lower than for new contracts, and therefore, the nonrefundable upfront payments for upgrade contracts are amortized at a different rate than for new contracts. We continue to monitor customer lives based on historical attrition rates and changes in revenue recognized may occur in the future due to changes in customer behavior.
We evaluate all amounts receivable from customers and an allowance is established based on our assessment of collectibility for amounts greater than 30 days past due. Our allowance for uncollectible rents receivable was approximately $4.4 million and $4.5 million as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. We will continue to monitor and assess these receivables and changes in required allowances may occur in the future due to changes in the market environment.
Business Combinations
Our method for allocating the purchase price to acquired investments in real estate requires us to make subjective assessments for determining fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. This includes determining the value of the buildings, land and improvements, construction in progress, ground leases, in-place leases, above and/or below market leases, purchase option intangible assets and/or liabilities, and any debt assumed. We determine and allocate the purchase price of an acquired company to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the business combination date. The purchase price allocation process requires us to use significant estimates and assumptions, including fair value estimates, as of the business combination date. We utilize third-party valuation companies to help us determine certain fair value estimates used for assets and liabilities.
While we use our best estimates and assumptions as a part of the purchase price allocation process to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the business combination date, our estimates and assumptions are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. As a result, during the purchase price allocation period, which is generally one year from the business combination date, we may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements with any unconsolidated investments or joint ventures that we believe have or are reasonably likely to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or capital resources.
Inflation
Substantially all of the leases at the Properties allow for monthly or annual rent increases which provide us with the opportunity to achieve increases, where justified by the market. Such types of leases generally minimize our risks of inflation. In addition, our resort Properties are not generally subject to leases and rents are established for these Sites on an annual basis. Our right-to-use contracts generally provide for an annual dues increase, but dues may be frozen under the terms of certain contracts if the customer is over 61 years old. Currently, 28.0% of our dues are frozen.
Funds From Operations
Funds from Operations ("FFO") is a non-GAAP financial measure. We define FFO as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains and actual or estimated losses from sales of properties, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization, impairments, if any, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. We compute FFO in accordance with our interpretation of standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), which may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do. We receive up-front non-refundable payments from the entry of right-to-use contracts. In accordance with GAAP, the upfront non-refundable payments and related commissions are deferred and amortized over the estimated customer life. Although the NAREIT definition of FFO does not address the treatment of non-refundable right-to-use payments, we believe that it is appropriate to adjust for the impact of the deferral activity in our calculation of FFO.
Management's Discussion (continued)
We believe FFO, as defined by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, is generally a measure of performance for an equity REIT. While FFO is a relevant and widely used measure of operating performance for equity REITs, it does not represent cash flow from operations or net income as defined by GAAP, and it should not be considered as an alternative to these indicators in evaluating liquidity or operating performance.
Normalized Funds from Operations ("Normalized FFO") is a non-GAAP measure. We define Normalized FFO as FFO excluding the following non-operating income and expense items: a) the financial impact of contingent consideration; b) gains and losses from early debt extinguishment, including prepayment penalties and defeasance costs; c) property acquisition and other transaction costs related to mergers and acquisitions; and d) other miscellaneous non-comparable items. Normalized FFO presented herein is not necessarily comparable to Normalized FFO presented by other real estate companies due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same methodology for computing this amount.
We believe that FFO and Normalized FFO are helpful to investors as supplemental measures of the performance of an equity REIT. We believe that by excluding the effect of depreciation, amortization, impairments, if any, and actual or estimated gains or losses from sales of real estate, all of which are based on historical costs and which may be of limited relevance in evaluating current performance, FFO can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and among other equity REITs. We further believe that Normalized FFO provides useful information to investors, analysts and our management because it allows them to compare our operating performance to the operating performance of other real estate companies and between periods on a consistent basis without having to account for differences not related to our operations. For example, we believe that excluding the early extinguishment of debt, property acquisition and other transaction costs related to mergers and acquisitions from Normalized FFO allows investors, analysts and our management to assess the sustainability of operating performance in future periods because these costs do not affect the future operations of the properties. In some cases, we provide information about identified non-cash components of FFO and Normalized FFO because it allows investors, analysts and our management to assess the impact of those items.
Our definitions and calculations of these non-GAAP financial and operating measures and other terms may differ from the definitions and methodologies used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable. These non-GAAP financial and operating measures do not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, nor do they represent cash available to pay distributions and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, determined in accordance with GAAP, as an indication of our financial performance, or to cash flow from operating activities, determined in accordance with GAAP, as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. Our earnings, cash flows and fair values relevant to financial instruments are dependent on prevailing market interest rates. The primary market risk we face related to our long-term indebtedness is the ability to refinance maturing mortgages. The fair value of our long-term debt obligations is affected by changes in market interest rates with scheduled maturities from 2017 to 2041. At December 31, 2016, approximately 100.0% or approximately $1.9 billion of our outstanding secured debt had fixed interest rates with scheduled maturities from 2017 to 2041, which minimizes the market risk until the debt matures. In addition, approximately 32.0% of our outstanding secured debt is fully amortizing further reducing the market risk. For each increase in interest rates of 1% (or 100 basis points), the fair value of the total outstanding debt would decrease by approximately $196.9 million. For each decrease in interest rates of 1% (or 100 basis points), the fair value of the total outstanding debt would increase by approximately $219.7 million. If interest rates were to increase or decrease by 1.0%, there would be no effect on interest expense or cash flows as our outstanding secured debt has fixed interest rates.
As of December 31, 2016, $34.3 million, including note premiums of approximately $0.1 million, of our outstanding secured debt was short-term. Our $200.0 million unsecured Term Loan has variable rates based on LIBOR plus 1.35% to 1.95% per annum. However, the 2014 Swap fixes the underlying LIBOR rate at 1.04% per annum for the first three years (see Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for definitions of Term Loan and 2014 Swap).

| |
• | our ability to maintain historical or increase future rental rates and occupancy with respect to Properties currently owned or that we may acquire; |
| |
• | our ability to retain and attract customers renewing, upgrading and entering right-to-use contracts; |
| |
• | our assumptions about rental and home sales markets; |
| |
• | our ability to manage counter-party risk; |
| |
• | in the age-qualified Properties, home sales results could be impacted by the ability of potential home buyers to sell their existing residences as well as by financial, credit and capital markets volatility; |
| |
• | results from home sales and occupancy will continue to be impacted by local economic conditions, lack of affordable manufactured home financing and competition from alternative housing options including site-built single-family housing; |
| |
• | impact of government intervention to stabilize site-built single family housing and not manufactured housing; |
| |
• | effective integration of recent acquisitions and our estimates regarding the future performance of recent acquisitions; |
| |
• | the completion of future transactions in their entirety, if any, and timing and effective integration with respect thereto; |
| |
• | unanticipated costs or unforeseen liabilities associated with recent acquisitions; |
| |
• | ability to obtain financing or refinance existing debt on favorable terms or at all; |
| |
• | the effect of interest rates; |
| |
• | the dilutive effects of issuing additional securities; |
| |
• | the effect of accounting for the entry of contracts with customers representing a right-to-use the Properties under the Codification Topic "Revenue Recognition"; |
| |
• | the outcome of pending or future lawsuits or actions brought against us, including those disclosed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission; and |
| |
• | other risks indicated from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. |
These forward-looking statements are based on management's present expectations and beliefs about future events.

Item 9. Changes In and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
None.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial and accounting officer), maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures, designed to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in the reports that we file under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that we will detect or uncover failures to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in our periodic reports.
Our management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2016. Based on that evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this annual report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to give reasonable assurances to the timely collection, evaluation and our disclosure of information that would potentially be subject to disclosure under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder as of December 31, 2016.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no material changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 2016.
Report of Management on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Based on management's assessment, we maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016. In making this assessment, management used the criteria established by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") in "Internal Control-Integrated Framework" (2013 framework).
The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016 has been audited by our independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report on Page F-2 of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Board of Directors and Stockholders of Equity Lifestyle Properties, Inc.
We have audited Equity Lifestyle Properties, Inc.'s (Equity Lifestyle Properties or the Company) internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO criteria). Equity Lifestyle Properties' management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, Equity Lifestyle Properties, Inc. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016, based on the COSO criteria.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2016, and the financial statement schedule listed in the Index to the financial statements of Equity Lifestyle Properties, Inc., and our report dated February 21, 2017, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Board of Directors and Stockholders of Equity Lifestyle Properties, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Equity Lifestyle Properties, Inc. (Equity Lifestyle Properties or the Company) as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2016. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index to the financial statements. These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Equity Lifestyle Properties, Inc. at December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2016, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), Equity Lifestyle Properties' internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) and our report dated February 21, 2017 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1—Our Organization and Basis of Presentation
Equity LifeStyle Properties, Inc. ("ELS"), a Maryland corporation, together with MHC Operating Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership") and other consolidated subsidiaries (the "Subsidiaries"), is referred to herein as "we," "us," "the Company," and "our." We are a fully integrated owner and operator of lifestyle-oriented properties ("Properties"). We lease individual developed areas ("Sites") with access to utilities for placement of factory built homes, cottages, cabins or recreational vehicles ("RVs"). Properties are designed and improved for several home options of various sizes and designs that are produced off-site, installed and set on designated Sites ("Site Set") within the Properties. At certain Properties, we provide access to our Sites through right-to-use or membership contracts. We believe that we have qualified for taxation as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") for U.S. federal income tax purposes since our taxable year ended December 31, 1993. We plan to continue to meet the requirements for taxation as a REIT. Many of these requirements, however, are highly technical and complex. For example, to qualify as a REIT, at least 95% of our gross income must come from sources that are itemized in the REIT tax laws. We must meet a number of organizational requirements, including a requirement to distribute to stockholders at least 90% of our REIT taxable income computed without regard to our deduction for dividends paid and our net capital gain.
If we fail to qualify as a REIT, we could be subject to U.S. federal income tax at regular corporate rates. Also, unless the IRS granted us relief under certain statutory provisions, we would remain disqualified as a REIT for four years following the year we first failed to qualify. Even if we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we are subject to certain foreign, state and local taxes on our income and property and U.S. federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed income.
Our Properties are owned primarily by the Operating Partnership and managed internally by wholly-owned affiliates of the Operating Partnership. We contributed the proceeds from our initial public offering and subsequent offerings to the Operating Partnership for units of common interests in the partnership ("OP Units"), and we currently hold a number of OP Units equal to the number of our outstanding common shares. In addition, we are the general partner of the Operating Partnership. The financial results of the Operating Partnership and the Subsidiaries are consolidated in our consolidated financial statements. In addition, since certain activities, if performed by us, may cause us to earn income which is not qualifying for the REIT gross income tests, we have formed taxable REIT Subsidiaries, as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), to engage in such activities.
Several Properties are wholly-owned by Realty Systems, Inc. ("RSI"), one of our taxable REIT Subsidiaries. In addition, RSI is engaged in the business of purchasing and selling or leasing Site Set homes that are located in Properties we own and manage. RSI also provides brokerage services to residents at such Properties for those residents who move from a Property but do not relocate their homes. RSI may provide brokerage services, in competition with other local brokers, by seeking buyers for the Site Set homes. RSI also operates ancillary activities at certain Properties consisting of operations such as golf courses, pro shops, stores and restaurants.
The limited partners of the Operating Partnership (the "Common OP Unitholders") receive an allocation of net income that is based on their respective ownership percentage in the Operating Partnership that is shown on the Consolidated Financial Statements as Non-controlling interests—Common OP Units. As of December 31, 2016, the Non-Controlling Interests—Common OP Units represented 7,170,000 OP Units which are convertible into an equivalent number of shares of our common stock. The issuance of additional shares of common stock or Common OP Units changes the respective ownership of the Operating Partnership for the Non-controlling interests—Common OP Units.

Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
We follow accounting standards set by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, commonly referred to as the "FASB." The FASB sets Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), which we follow to ensure that we consistently report our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. References to GAAP in the United States issued by the FASB in these footnotes are to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the "Codification").
| |
(a) | Basis of Consolidation |
We consolidate our majority-owned Subsidiaries in which we have the ability to control the operations of our Subsidiaries and all variable interest entities with respect to which we are the primary beneficiary. We also consolidate entities in which we have a direct or indirect controlling or voting interest. All significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated. For business combinations, the purchase price of Properties is accounted for in accordance with the Codification Topic Business Combinations ("FASB ASC 805").
Effective January 1, 2016, we adopted (“ASU 2015-02”) Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. ASU 2015-02 required us to evaluate whether we should consolidate certain legal entities. Principally, the new consolidation standard modified the evaluation of whether limited partnerships and similar legal entities are variable interest entities ("VIE") or voting interest entities. The adoption of this standard did not result in any changes to our accounting of interests in less than wholly-owned joint ventures; however, the Operating Partnership now meets the criteria as a VIE. We concluded that the Operating Partnership is a VIE because we are the general partner and controlling owner of approximately 92.3% of the Operating Partnership and the limited partners do not have substantive kick-out or participating rights. Our sole significant asset is our investment in the Operating Partnership, and consequently, substantially all of our assets and liabilities represent those assets and liabilities of the Operating Partnership. The Company has the power to direct the VIE's activities and the obligation to absorb its losses or the right to receive its benefits, which are significant to the VIE. Accordingly, we are the primary beneficiary and we will continue to consolidate the Operating Partnership under this new guidance.
We apply the equity method of accounting to entities in which we do not have a direct or indirect controlling interest or for variable interest entities where we are not considered the primary beneficiary, but can exercise influence over the entity with respect to its operations and major decisions. The cost method is applied when (i) the investment is minimal (typically less than 5.0%) and (ii) our investment is passive. Our exposure to losses associated with unconsolidated joint ventures is primarily limited to the carrying value of these investments. Accordingly, distributions from a joint venture in excess of our carrying value are recognized in earnings.
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. All property, Site counts and acreage amounts are unaudited.
Real estate is recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Our policy is to estimate useful lives associated with our real estate assets and to depreciate the assets on a straight-line basis based on our estimates. In January 2014, we completed a review of the useful lives and salvage values of manufactured homes. During the first quarter of 2014, we prospectively modified the depreciable life estimate of our new manufactured homes to 25 years and our used homes to 10-25 years. We continue to use a 30-year estimated life for buildings and structural and land improvements acquired (including Site development), a 10-year estimated life for building upgrades, a five-year estimated life for furniture, fixtures and equipment and lease intangibles over the average life of acquired in-place leases. The change in estimate during the first quarter of 2014 related to our new and used manufactured homes did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Land improvements consist primarily of improvements such as grading, landscaping and infrastructure items, such as streets, sidewalks or water mains. Buildings and other depreciable property consist of permanent buildings in the Properties such as clubhouses, laundry facilities, maintenance storage facilities, rental units and furniture, fixtures, equipment, and in-place leases.
The values of above and below-market leases are amortized and recorded as either an increase (in the case of below-market leases) or a decrease (in the case of above-market leases) to rental income over the remaining term of the applicable lease. The value associated with in-place leases is amortized over the expected term.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
In accordance with the Codification Sub-Topic "Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets" ("FASB ASC 360-10-35"), we periodically evaluate our long-lived assets to be held and used, including our investments in real estate, for impairment indicators. Our judgments regarding the existence of impairment indicators are based on factors such as operational performance, market conditions, environmental and legal factors. Future events could occur which would cause us to conclude that impairment indicators exist and an impairment loss is warranted.
If an impairment indicator exists related to long-lived assets that are held and used, we compare the expected future undiscounted cash flows against the carrying amount of that asset. If the sum of the estimated undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded for the carrying amount in excess of the estimated fair value, if any, of the asset. For the periods presented, no impairment losses were recorded.
For Properties to be disposed of, an impairment loss is recognized when the fair value of the Property, less the estimated cost to sell, is less than the carrying amount of the Property measured at the time we have made the decision to dispose of the Property, subject to Board and management approval. A Property to be disposed of is reported at the lower of its carrying amount or its estimated fair value, less costs to sell. Subsequent to the date that a Property is held for disposition, depreciation expense is not recorded.
In April 2014, the FASB issued ("ASU 2014-08") Property, Plant, and Equipment: Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. ASU 2014-08 changes the definition of a discontinued operation to include only those disposals of components of an entity that represent a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results. We adopted ASU 2014-08, effective January 1, 2014 and are applying the revised definition to all disposals on a prospective basis, including the gain on sale of property recognized during the year ended December 31, 2014.
In accordance with Codification Topic "Business Combinations" ("FASB ASC 805"), we recognize all the assets acquired and all the liabilities assumed in a transaction at the acquisition-date fair value. We also expense transaction costs as they are incurred. The results of operations of acquired assets are included in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income from the dates of acquisition. Certain purchase price adjustments may be made within one year following the acquisition and applied prospectively in accordance with ASU 2015-16 Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments.
In making estimates of fair values for purposes of allocating purchase price, we utilize a number of sources, including independent appraisals or valuations that may be available in connection with the acquisition or financing of the respective Property and other market data. We also consider information obtained about each Property as a result of our due diligence, marketing and leasing activities in estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
The following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair value of each class of asset acquired and liability assumed:
Land – Market approach based on similar, but not identical, transactions in the market. Adjustments to comparable sales based on both the quantitative and qualitative data.
Depreciable property – Cost approach based on market comparable data to replace adjusted for local variations, inflation and other factors.
Manufactured homes – Sales comparison approach based on market prices for similar homes adjusted for differences in age or size. Manufactured homes are included on our Consolidated Balance Sheets in buildings and other depreciable property.
In-place leases – Lease in place values are determined via a combination of estimates of market rental rates and expense reimbursement levels as well as an estimate of the length of time required to replace each lease.
Notes receivable – Income approach based on discounted cash flows comparing contractual cash flows at a market rate adjusted based on particular notes' or note holders' down payment, credit score and delinquency status.
Mortgage notes payable – Income approach based on discounted cash flows comparing contractual cash flows to cash flows of similar debt discounted based on market rates.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Cash as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 included approximately $5.3 million and $5.0 million, respectively, of restricted cash for the payment of capital improvements, insurance or real estate taxes pursuant to certain loan agreements.
| |
(f) | Deferred Financing Costs, net |
Deferred financing costs, net include fees and costs incurred to obtain long-term financing. The costs are being amortized over the terms of the respective loans on a basis that approximates level yield. Unamortized deferred financing fees are written-off when debt is retired before the maturity date. Upon amendment of the line of credit or refinancing of mortgage debt, unamortized deferred financing fees are accounted for in accordance with Codification Sub-Topic "Modifications and Extinguishments" ("FASB ASC 470-50-40"). Accumulated amortization for such costs was $31.4 million and $33.7 million at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Effective January 1, 2016, we adopted (“ASU 2015-03”) Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs and (“ASU 2015-15”) Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements. ASU 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs be deducted from the carrying value of the financial liability and not recorded as separate assets, previously classified as deferred financing costs. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by ASU 2015-03. ASU 2015-15 states that presentation of costs associated with securing a revolving line of credit as an asset is permitted, regardless of whether a balance is outstanding. ASU 2015-03 and 2015-15 require retrospective adoption and as a result we reclassified deferred financing costs, net on our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2015 as a reduction of debt, as presented herein (see Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further details).
| |
(g) | Identified Intangibles and Goodwill |
We record acquired intangible assets at their estimated fair value separate and apart from goodwill. We amortize identified intangible assets and liabilities that are determined to have finite lives over the period the assets and liabilities are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to the future cash flows of the property or business acquired. In accordance with FASB ASC 360-10-35, intangible assets subject to amortization are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an intangible asset is not recoverable and its carrying amount exceeds its estimated fair value.
The excess of the cost of an acquired entity over the net of the amounts assigned to assets acquired (including identified intangible assets) and liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill. In accordance with Codification Topic "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("FASB ASC 350"), goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at a level of reporting referred to as a reporting unit on an annual basis, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired.
As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the gross carrying amounts of identified intangible assets and goodwill were approximately $12.1 million, which is reported as a component of Escrow deposits, goodwill and other assets, net on our consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, this amount was comprised of approximately $4.3 million of identified intangible assets and approximately $7.8 million of goodwill. Accumulated amortization of identified intangibles assets was approximately $2.8 million and $2.6 million as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 amortization expense for the identified intangible assets was approximately $0.2 million, $0.4 million, and $0.3 million respectively.
| |
(h) | Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
Our financial instruments include notes receivable, accounts receivable, accounts payable, other accrued expenses, interest rate swaps and mortgage notes payable. We disclose the estimated fair value of our financial instruments according to a fair value hierarchy (Level 1, 2 and 3).
Codification Topic "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" ("FASB ASC 820") establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. A financial instrument's categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels are defined as follows:
Level 1-Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Equity LifeStyle Properties, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Level 2-Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
Level 3-Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.
Our mortgage notes payable and term loan had a carrying value of approximately $2.1 billion as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and a fair value of approximately $2.1 billion and $2.2 billion as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The fair value is measured using quoted prices and observable inputs from similar liabilities (Level 2). At December 31, 2016 and 2015, our cash flow hedge of interest rate risk included in accrued expenses and accounts payable was measured using quoted prices and observable inputs from similar assets and liabilities (Level 2). We consider our own credit risk as well as the credit risk of our counterparties when evaluating the fair value of our derivative. The fair values of our notes receivable approximate their carrying or contract values. We also utilize Level 2 and Level 3 inputs as part of our determination of the purchase price allocation for our acquisitions (see Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).
Our revenue streams are predominantly derived from customers renting our Sites or entering right-to-use contracts. Our MH community Sites and annual RV resort Sites are leased on an annual basis. Seasonal Sites are leased to customers generally for one to six months. Transient Sites are leased to customers on a short-term basis. Leases with the Company's customers are accounted for as operating leases. Rental income is recognized over the term of the respective lease or the length of a customer's stay.
Right-to-use annual payments are accounted for in accordance with the Codification Topic Revenue Recognition ("FASB ASC 605"). A right-to-use contract gives the customer the right to a set schedule of usage at a specified group of Properties. Payments are deferred and recognized ratably over the one year period in which access to Sites at certain Properties are provided.
Right-to-use upfront non-refundable payments supplement the right-to-use contract and grant certain additional access rights to the customer and are recognized over the the estimated customer life. The estimated customer life is based on historical attrition rates. For the year ended December 31, 2016, the customer life was estimated to be 40 years. For the years ended December 31, 2015, and 2014, the customer life was estimated to be 31 years. This change did not have a material impact on revenue recognized for the year ended December 31, 2016.
Income from home sales is recognized when the earnings process is complete. The earnings process is complete when the home has been delivered, the purchaser has accepted the home and title has transferred.
| |
(j) | Non-Controlling Interests |
A non-controlling interest is the portion of equity (net assets) in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to a parent. The ownership interests in the subsidiary that are held by owners other than the parent are non-controlling interests. Under Codification Topic "Consolidation" ("FASB ASC 810"), such non-controlling interests are reported on the consolidated balance sheets within equity, separately from the Company's equity. However, securities that are redeemable for cash or other assets at the option of the holder, not solely within the control of the issuer, must be classified outside of permanent equity. This would result in certain outside ownership interests being included as redeemable non-controlling interests outside of permanent equity in the consolidated balance sheets. We make this determination based on terms in applicable agreements, specifically in relation to redemption provisions. Additionally, with respect to non-controlling interests for which we have a choice to settle the contract by delivery of our own shares, we considered the guidance in the Codification Topic "Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity's Own Equity" ("FASB ASC 815-40") to evaluate whether we control the actions or events necessary to issue the maximum number of shares that could be required to be delivered under share settlement of the contract.
Net income is allocated to Common OP Unitholders based on their respective ownership percentage of the Operating Partnership. Such ownership percentage is calculated by dividing the number of Common OP Units held by the Common OP Unitholders by the total OP Units held by the Common OP Unitholders and us. Issuance of additional shares of common stock or Common OP Units changes the percentage ownership of both the Non-controlling interests – Common OP Units and the Company.
Due in part to the exchange rights (which provide for the conversion of Common OP Units into shares of common stock on a one-for-one basis), such transactions and the proceeds therefrom are treated as capital transactions and result in an allocation between stockholders' equity and Non-controlling Interests to account for the change in the respective percentage ownership of the underlying equity of the Operating Partnership.
Equity LifeStyle Properties, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
In accordance with FASB ASC 810, we present the non-controlling interest for Common OP Units in the Equity section of the consolidated balance sheets. The caption Common OP Units on the consolidated balance sheets also includes $0.3 million of private REIT Subsidiaries preferred stock.
Due to our structure as a REIT, the results of operations contain no provision for U.S. federal income taxes for the REIT. As of December 31, 2016, the REIT had a federal net operating loss carryforward of approximately $88.1 million. The REIT would be entitled to utilize the net operating loss carryforward only to the extent that the REIT taxable income exceeds our deduction for dividends paid. Due to the uncertainty regarding the use of the REIT net operating loss carryforward, no tax benefit has been recorded for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014.
In addition, we have several taxable REIT Subsidiaries ("TRSs"), which are subject to federal and state income taxes at regular corporate tax rates. Overall, the TRSs have federal net operating loss carryforwards. Due to the uncertainty regarding the realization of these deferred tax assets, we have maintained a full valuation allowance for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014.
The REIT is still subject to certain foreign, state and local income, excise or franchise taxes; however, they are not material to our operating results or financial position. We do not have unrecognized tax benefit items.
We, or one of our Subsidiaries, file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various U.S. state jurisdictions and Canada. With few exceptions, we are no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2012.
As of December 31, 2016, net investment in real estate and notes receivable had a U.S. federal tax basis of approximately $2.8 billion (unaudited) and $36.5 million (unaudited), respectively.
During the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, our tax treatment of common stock distributions were as follows (unaudited):

(l) | Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
In January 2017, the FASB issued ("ASU 2017-01") Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. ASU 2017-01 clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. ASU 2017-01 will be effective for annual reporting beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently in the process of evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of this standard may have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In August 2016, the FASB issued (“ASU 2016-15”) Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230). ASU 2016-15 provides guidance on how certain cash receipts and cash payments are to be presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently in the process of evaluating the potential impact, if any, that adoption of this standard may have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In June 2016, the FASB issued (“ASU 2016-13”) Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326). ASU 2016-13 requires entities to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Entities will now use forward-looking information to better form their credit loss estimates. ASU 2016-13 also requires enhanced disclosures to help financial statement users better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an entity’s portfolio. ASU 2016-13 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is

permitted. We are currently in the process of evaluating the potential impact, if any, that adoption of this standard may have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ("ASU 2016-09") Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718). Under ASU 2016-09, entities will be required to recognize the income tax effects of awards in the income statement when the awards vest or are settled. The guidance of employers' accounting for (1) an employee's use of shares to satisfy the employer's statutory income tax withholding obligation and (2) forfeitures has changed. For public business entities, ASU 2016-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016 and early adoption is permitted. The Company elected to early adopt ASU 2016-09 as of October 1, 2016. Adoption of ASU 2016-09 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ("ASU 2016-02") Leases. ASU 2016-02 amends the existing accounting standards for lease accounting, including requiring lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets and making targeted changes to lessor accounting. ASU 2016-02 requires a modified retrospective transition approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to use certain transition relief. ASU 2016-02 will continue to classify leases as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the statement of income. ASU 2016-02 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently in the process of evaluating the potential impact this standard may have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ("ASU 2014-15") Presentation of Financial Statements. ASU 2014-15 explicitly requires management to assess an entity's ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures in certain circumstances. In connection with each annual and interim period, management will assess whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the issuance date. Disclosures will be required if conditions give rise to substantial doubt. However, to determine the specific disclosures, management will need to assess whether its plans will alleviate substantial doubt. Effective December 31, 2016 we adopted ASU 2014-15. Adoption has had no effect on our consolidated results of operations or financial position and no additional disclosures were required.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ("ASU 2014-09") Revenue from Contracts with Customers which along with related subsequent amendments will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is that an entity should recognize revenue for the transfer of goods or services equal to the amount that it expects to be entitled to receive for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments. The new standard will be effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2018, however early application beginning on January 1, 2017 is permitted. The standard permits the use of either the full retrospective or modified retrospective transition method.
We expect to adopt ASU 2014-09 on January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective transition method. We are evaluating the complete impact of the adoption to our consolidated financial results. Our primary source of revenue is generated through leasing arrangements, which are excluded from ASU 2014-09. We continue to evaluate and are in the process of quantifying the impact, if any, the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on our non-lease revenue streams, including right-to-use annual payments, right-to-use contracts, and utility and other income.

Note 3—Earnings Per Common Share
Basic and fully diluted earnings per share are based on the weighted average shares outstanding during each year and basic earnings per share exclude any dilutive effects of options, unvested restricted shares and convertible securities. The conversion of OP Units has been excluded from the basic earnings per share calculation. The conversion of an OP Unit for a share of common stock has no material effect on earnings per common share on a fully diluted basis.

Note 4—Common Stock and Other Equity Related Transactions
On May 4, 2015, we entered into new separate equity distribution agreements with certain sales agents, pursuant to an at-the-market (“ATM”) equity offering program.

We engaged a third-party to assist with our purchase price allocation for the acquisitions. The allocation of the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed is subject to further adjustment within one year of purchase due primarily to information not readily available at the acquisition date and final purchase price settlement with the sellers in accordance with the terms of the purchase agreement. The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisitions for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 which we determined using Level-2 inputs for mortgage notes payable and other liabilities and Level-3 inputs for assets (amounts in thousands):

Real estate acquisitions at cost
On August 15, 2016, we closed on the purchase of approximately 25 acres of vacant land adjacent to our Colony Cove and Ridgewood Estates manufactured home communities in Ellenton, Florida, for $2.0 million.
Dispositions and real estate held for disposition

to the value of certain property taken for state highway purposes at our Seyenna Vista property in Maricopa County, Arizona, of which approximately $1.5 million was in excess of our basis and recognized as a gain on sale of property within continuing operations in our Consolidated Statement of Income and Comprehensive Income following the adoption of ASU 2014-08.
As of December 31, 2016, we have no Properties designated as held for disposition pursuant to FASB ASC 360-10-35.
Note 6—Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
Investments in joint ventures in which we do not have a controlling direct or indirect voting interest, but can exercise significant influence over the entity with respect to our operations and major decisions, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting whereby the cost of an investment is adjusted for our share of the equity in net income or loss from the date of acquisition, reduced by distributions received and increased by contributions made. The income or loss of each entity is allocated in accordance with the provisions of the applicable operating agreements. The allocation provisions in these agreements may differ from the ownership interests held by each investor.
We recorded approximately $2.6 million, $4.1 million, and $4.6 million (each net of approximately $1.3 million, $1.1 million, and $0.9 million of depreciation expense, respectively) of equity in income from unconsolidated joint ventures for each of the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. We received approximately $5.9 million, $3.7 million, and $5.9 million in distributions from joint ventures for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. None of the distributions made to us exceeded our basis in joint ventures for the year ended December 31, 2016. Approximately $1.4 million of the distributions made to us, using proceeds generated by refinancing transactions, exceeded our basis in joint ventures and, as such, were recorded as income from unconsolidated joint ventures for the year ended December 31, 2015.
On August 29, 2016, the Voyager joint venture obtained additional loan funding in the amount of $8.5 million, of which $4.1 million was distributed to us.
During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, we contributed $5.0 million and $4.0 million, respectively, to our joint venture, Echo Financing, LLC ("ECHO JV").

Note 7—Notes and Contracts Receivable
Notes receivable generally are presented at their outstanding unpaid principal balances net of any allowances, deferred fees or costs on originated loans and unamortized discounts or premiums. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Discounts or premiums are amortized to income using the interest method. In certain cases, we purchase loans made by others to finance the sales of homes to our customers (referred to as "Chattel Loans"). These loans are secured by the purchased homes.
Financial instruments that potentially could subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of notes receivable. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to notes receivable are limited due to the size of the receivable and geographic diversity of the underlying Properties.
Chattel Loans
From time to time, we purchase loans ("Chattel loans") made by an unaffiliated third party lender that are secured by homes at certain Properties. These Chattel Loans require monthly principal and interest payments. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, we had approximately $16.5 million and $17.6 million, respectively, of these Chattel Loans included in notes receivable. As of December 31, 2016, the Chattel Loans receivable had a stated per annum average rate of approximately 7.7%, with a yield of 20.7%, and had an average term remaining of approximately 11 years. These Chattel Loans are recorded net of allowances of approximately $0.3 million as of December 31, 2016 and 2015.
Contracts Receivable
We also provide financing for nonrefundable upgrades to existing right-to-use contracts ("Contracts Receivable"). These Contracts Receivable represent loans to customers who have entered right-to-use contracts. Contracts Receivable are also generally presented at their outstanding unpaid principal balances net of an allowance reserve.
As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, we had approximately $18.0 million and $17.8 million, respectively, of Contracts Receivable included in notes receivable. The Contracts Receivable have an average stated interest rate of 16.2%, a weighted average term remaining of approximately four years and require monthly payments of principal and interest. The Contracts Receivable recorded as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 were net of an allowance of approximately $0.7 million and $0.6 million, respectively.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Our allowance for doubtful accounts is comprised of our reserves for amounts receivable from tenants, Contracts Receivable and Chattel Loans. The allowances reflect our best estimate of collectibility risks on outstanding receivables. Our allowance for uncollectible rents receivable was approximately $4.4 million and $4.5 million as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
During the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, our allowance for doubtful accounts was as follows (amounts in thousands):

The weighted average interest rate including the impact of premium/discount amortization on this mortgage indebtedness for the year ended December 31, 2016 was approximately 4.9% per annum. The debt bears interest at stated rates of 3.5% to 8.9% per annum and matures on various dates ranging from 2017 to 2041. The debt encumbered a total of 126 and 127 of our Properties as of December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, and the carrying value of such Properties was approximately $2.3 billion and $2.2 billion, respectively, as of such dates.
2016 Activity
During the year ended December 31, 2016, we completed refinancing activity and closed on loans with total aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $88.1 million. The loans have a weighted average maturity of 23 years, carry a weighted average interest rate of 4.01% per annum and are secured by four manufactured home properties and two RV resorts. Also, during the year ended December 31, 2016 we paid off five maturing mortgage loans of approximately $41.8 million, with a weighted average interest rate of 5.85% per annum, secured by three manufactured home Properties and two RV resorts. Finally, in connection with the Forest Lake Estates acquisition, we assumed approximately $22.6 million of mortgage debt secured by the manufactured home community, with a stated interest rate of 4.51% per annum, which is set to mature in 2038.
2015 Activity
During the year ended December 31, 2015, we closed on four loans with total gross proceeds of $395.3 million. The loans have a weighted average maturity of 21 years, carry a weighted average interest rate of 3.93% per annum and were secured by 26 manufactured home properties and RV resorts. Proceeds from the financings were used to retire by defeasance and prepayment approximately $370.2 million of loans maturing at various times throughout 2015 and 2016, with a weighted average interest rate of 5.58% per annum, which were secured by 32 manufactured home properties and RV resorts. We incurred approximately $17.0 million in early debt retirement expense related to these loans. We also paid off two maturing mortgage loans totaling approximately $48.7 million, with a weighted average interest rate of 5.73% per annum, secured by one manufactured home property and three RV resorts.
2014 Activity
During the year ended December 31, 2014, we closed on four loans with total proceeds of $54.0 million which were secured by two manufactured home properties and two RV resorts. The loans had a weighted average interest rate of 4.54% per annum and were set to mature in 2034 and 2038. We also refinanced the $53.8 million loan secured by our Colony Cove community with a stated interest rate of 4.65% per annum that was scheduled to mature in 2017. The new loan, with gross proceeds of $115.0 million, had a 25 year term and carries a stated interest rate of 4.64% per annum. We paid a prepayment fee of approximately $5.1 million associated with the early retirement of the prior loan. We also paid off 17 mortgages totaling approximately $90.0 million that had a weighted average interest rate of 5.57% per annum. In connection with the Blackhawk and Lakeland acquisitions, we assumed approximately $13.3 million of mortgage debt, excluding mortgage note premiums of $1.0 million, with a weighted average interest rate of 6.48% per annum, secured by the resort properties and are set to mature in 2017 and 2018. Finally, in connection with the Mesa Spirit acquisition, we assumed approximately $19.0 million of mortgage debt, excluding a mortgage note premium of $1.0 million, with a stated interest rate of 5.66% per annum, secured by the resort property and is set to mature in 2017.

Note 8- Borrowing Arrangements (continued)
Term Loan
As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, our $200.0 million unsecured Term Loan (the "Term Loan") matures on January 10, 2020 and has an interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.35% to 1.95% per annum and, subject to certain conditions, may be prepaid at any time without premium or penalty. The spread over LIBOR is variable quarterly based on leverage measured quarterly throughout the loan term. The Term Loan contains customary representations, warranties, and negative and affirmative covenants, and provides for acceleration of principal and payment of all other amounts payable thereunder upon the occurrence of certain events of default. In connection with the Term Loan, we also entered into a three year LIBOR Swap Agreement (the "2014 Swap") allowing us to trade the variable interest rate for a fixed interest rate on the Term Loan (see Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on the accounting for the 2014 Swap).
Unsecured Line of Credit
As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, our unsecured Line of Credit ("LOC") had a borrowing capacity of $400.0 million, with the option to increase the borrowing capacity by $100.0 million, subject to certain conditions, with no amounts outstanding as of those dates. The LOC bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 1.20% to 1.65%, requires an annual facility fee of 0.20% to 0.35% and matures on July 17, 2018, with an option to extend for one additional year, subject to certain conditions. The spread over LIBOR is variable quarterly based on leverage throughout the loan term. In 2014, we incurred commitment and arrangement fees of approximately $3.5 million to enter into the LOC and extend the Term Loan.
As of December 31, 2016, we were in compliance in all material respects with the covenants in our borrowing arrangements.

Note 9—Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
As required by Codification Topic "Derivatives and Hedging" ("FASB ASC 815"), we record all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. Our objective in utilizing interest rate derivatives is to add stability to our interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, we primarily use interest rate swaps as part of our interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in our exchange for making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of the designated derivative and that qualifies as a cash flow hedge is recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and is subsequently reclassified into earnings on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. Any ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivative will be recognized directly in earnings.
In connection with our Term Loan, we entered into the 2014 Swap (see Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for information about the Term Loan related to the 2014 Swap) allowing us to trade the variable interest rate for a fixed interest rate on the Term Loan. The 2014 Swap fixes the underlying LIBOR rate on the Term Loan at 1.04% per annum for the first three

Note 9—Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (continued)
years and matures on August 1, 2017. Based on the leverage as of December 31, 2016, our spread over LIBOR is 1.35% resulting in an estimated all-in interest rate of 2.39% per annum.
We have designated the 2014 Swap as a cash flow hedge. No gain or loss was recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income related to hedge ineffectiveness or to amounts excluded from effectiveness testing on our cash flow hedge during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014.
Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the Consolidated Balance Sheets related to derivatives are reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on our variable-rate debt. During the next seven months, we estimate that an additional $0.2 million will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense. This estimate may be subject to change as the underlying LIBOR rate changes.

Note 11—Lease Agreements
The leases entered into between the customer and us for the rental of a Site are generally month-to-month or for a period of one to ten years, renewable upon the consent of the parties or, in some instances, as provided by statute. Long-term leases that are non-cancelable by the tenant are in effect at certain Sites for 39 of the Properties. Rental rate increases at these Properties are primarily a function of increases in the Consumer Price Index, taking into consideration certain conditions. Additionally, periodic market rate adjustments are made as deemed appropriate.

Note 14— Equity Incentive Awards
We follow Codification Topic "Stock Compensation" ("FASB ASC 718") in accounting for our share-based payments. This guidance requires measurement of the cost of employee services received in exchange for stock compensation based on the grant-date fair value of the employee stock awards. This cost is recognized as compensation expense ratably over the employee's requisite service period. Incremental compensation costs arising from subsequent modifications of awards after the grant date must be recognized when incurred. We use the Black-Scholes-Merton formula to estimate the value of stock options granted to employees, consultants and directors.
Our 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2014 Plan") was adopted by our Board of Directors on March 11, 2014 and approved by our stockholders on May 13, 2014. Pursuant to the 2014 Plan, our officers, directors, employees and consultants may be awarded (i) shares of common stock ("Restricted Stock Grants"), (ii) options to acquire shares of common stock ("Options"), including non-qualified stock options and incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code, and (iii) other forms of equity awards subject to conditions and restrictions determined by the Compensation, Nominating, and Corporate

Note 15— Preferred Stock
Our Board of Directors is authorized under our charter, without further stockholder approval, to issue, from time to time, in one or more series, 10,000,000 shares of $0.01 par value preferred stock (the "Preferred Stock"), with specific rights, preferences and other attributes as the Board may determine, which may include preferences, powers and rights that are senior to the rights of holders of our common stock. However, under certain circumstances, the issuance of preferred stock may require stockholder approval pursuant to the rules and regulations of The New York Stock Exchange.
We account for the Preferred Stock in accordance with the Codification Topic "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity—SEC Materials" ("FASB ASC 480-10-S99"). Holders of the 6.75% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock (the "Series C Preferred Stock") have certain preference rights with respect to the common stock and the Series C Preferred Stock is classified as redeemable interests inside of permanent equity on our Consolidated Balance Sheet due to the right of holders to convert such stock into common stock in certain circumstances involving a change of our control.
Note 16—Long-Term Cash Incentive Plan
On February 12, 2016, our Compensation Committee approved a Long-Term Cash Incentive Plan Award (the "2016 LTIP") to provide a long-term cash bonus opportunity to certain members of our management. The 2016 LTIP was approved by the Compensation Committee pursuant to the authority set forth in the Long Term Cash Incentive Plan approved by our Board of Directors on May 15, 2007. The total cumulative payment for all participants (the "Eligible Payment") is based upon certain performance conditions being met over a three year period ending December 31, 2018.
The Compensation Committee has responsibility for administering the 2016 LTIP and may use its reasonable discretion to adjust the performance criteria or Eligible Payments to take into account the impact of any major or unforeseen transaction or event. Our named executive officers are not participants in the 2016 LTIP. The Eligible Payment will be paid, at the discretion of our compensation committee, in cash upon completion of our annual audit for the 2018 fiscal year and upon satisfaction of the vesting conditions as outlined in the 2016 LTIP and, including employer costs, is currently estimated to be approximately $5.5 million. For the year ended December 31, 2016, we had accrued compensation expense of approximately $1.9 million.
On January 24, 2013, our Compensation Committee approved a Long-Term Cash Incentive Plan Award (the "2013 LTIP") to provide a long-term cash bonus opportunity to certain members of our management. Such Board approval was upon recommendation of the Committee. For the year ended December 31, 2015, we had accrued compensation expense of approximately $4.8 million. On February 12, 2016 the Compensation Committee approved payments under the 2013 LTIP of approximately $4.8 million to the participants, including employer costs.

Note 17—Savings Plan
We have a qualified retirement plan, with a salary deferral feature designed to qualify under Section 401 of the Code (the "401(k) Plan"), to cover our employees and those of our Subsidiaries, if any. The 401(k) Plan permits our eligible employees and those of any Subsidiary to defer up to 60.0% of their eligible compensation on a pre-tax basis subject to certain maximum amounts. In addition, we will match 100.0% of the participant's contribution up to the first 3.0% and then 50.0% of the next 2.0% for a maximum potential match of 4.0%. Employee's and our matching contributions will vest immediately.
Our contribution to the 401(k) Plan was approximately $1.6 million, $1.5 million and $1.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

California Rent Control Litigation
As part of our effort to realize the value of our Properties subject to rent control, we previously initiated lawsuits against certain localities in California with the goal of achieving a level of regulatory fairness in California's rent control jurisdictions, and in particular those jurisdictions that prohibit increasing rents to market upon turnover. Such regulations allow tenants to sell their homes for a price that includes a premium above the intrinsic value of the homes. The premium represents the value of the future discounted rent-controlled rents, which is fully capitalized into the prices of the homes sold. In our view, such regulations result in a transfer to the tenants of the value of our land, which would otherwise be reflected in market rents. We have discovered through the litigation process that certain municipalities considered condemning our Properties at values well below the value of the underlying land. In our view, a failure to articulate market rents for Sites governed by restrictive rent control would put us at risk for condemnation or eminent domain proceedings based on artificially reduced rents. Such a physical taking, should it occur, could represent substantial lost value to stockholders. We are cognizant of the need for affordable housing in the jurisdictions, but assert that restrictive rent regulation does not promote this purpose because tenants pay to their sellers as part of the purchase price of the home all the future rent savings that are expected to result from the rent control regulations, eliminating any supposed improvement in the affordability of housing. In a more well-balanced regulatory environment, we would receive market rents that would eliminate the price premium for homes, which would trade at or near their intrinsic value. Such efforts have included the following matters:
We sued the City of San Rafael on October 13, 2000 in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, challenging its rent control ordinance on constitutional grounds. While the District Court found the rent control ordinance unconstitutional, the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit reversed the District Court and ruled that the ordinance had not unconstitutionally taken our property. On September 3, 2013, we filed a petition for review by the U.S. Supreme Court, which was denied.
On January 31, 2012, we sued the City of Santee in the United States District for the Southern District of California challenging its rent control ordinance on constitutional grounds. On September 26, 2013, we entered a settlement agreement with the City pursuant to which we are able to increase Site rents at the Meadowbrook community through January 1, 2034 as follows: (a) a one-time 2.5% rent increase on all Sites in January 2014; plus (b) annual rent increases of 100.0% of the consumer price index (CPI) beginning in 2014; and (c) a 10.0% increase in the rent on a site upon turnover of that site. Absent the settlement, the rent control ordinance limited us to annual rent increases of at most 70.0% of CPI with no increases on turnover of a site.
Colony Park
On December 1, 2006, a group of tenants at our Colony Park Property in Ceres, California filed a complaint in the California Superior Court for Stanislaus County alleging that we had failed to properly maintain the Property and had improperly reduced the services provided to the tenants, among other allegations. We answered the complaint by denying all material allegations and filed a counterclaim for declaratory relief and damages. The case proceeded in Superior Court because our motion to compel arbitration was denied and the denial was upheld on appeal. Trial of the case began on July 27, 2010. After just over three months of trial in which the plaintiffs asked the jury to award a total of approximately $6.8 million in damages, the jury rendered verdicts awarding a total of less than $44,000 to six out of the 72 plaintiffs, and awarding nothing to the other 66 plaintiffs. The plaintiffs who were awarded nothing filed a motion for a new trial or alternatively for judgment notwithstanding the jury's verdict, which the Superior Court denied on February 14, 2011. All but three of the 66 plaintiffs to whom the jury awarded nothing appealed. Oral argument in the appeal was held on September 19, 2013 and the matter was taken under submission by the California Court of Appeal.
By orders entered on December 14, 2011, the Superior Court awarded us approximately $2.0 million in attorneys' fees and

other costs jointly and severally against the plaintiffs to whom the jury awarded nothing, and awarded no attorneys' fees or costs to either side with respect to the six plaintiffs to whom the jury awarded less than $44,000. Plaintiffs filed an appeal from the approximately $2.0 million award of our attorneys' fees and other costs. Oral argument in that appeal was also held on September 19, 2013. On December 3, 2013, the Court of Appeal issued a partially published opinion that rejected all of plaintiffs' claims on appeal except one, relating to whether the park's rules prohibited the renting of spaces to recreational vehicles. The Court of Appeal reversed the judgment on the recreational vehicle issue and remanded for further proceedings regarding that issue. Because the judgment was reversed, the award of attorney's fees and other costs was also reversed. Both sides filed rehearing petitions with the Court of Appeal. On December 31, 2013, the Court of Appeal granted the defendants' rehearing petition and ordered the parties to submit supplemental briefing, which the parties did. On March 10, 2014, the Court of Appeal issued a new partially published opinion in which it again rejected all of the plaintiffs' claims on appeal except the one relating to whether the park's rules prohibited the renting of spaces to recreational vehicles, reversing the judgment on that issue and remanding it for further proceedings, and accordingly vacating the award of attorney's fees and other costs.
As of result of a settlement we reached with the plaintiffs remaining in the litigation, pursuant to which among other provisions the parties agreed to mutually release all of their claims in the litigation without any payment by us, on September 28, 2015 the plaintiffs filed with the Superior Court a request for dismissal with prejudice of the entire action, to which we consented. On July 14, 2016, the Superior Court entered a dismissal of the action with prejudice.
California Hawaiian
On April 30, 2009, a group of tenants at our California Hawaiian Property in San Jose, California filed a complaint in the California Superior Court for Santa Clara County, Case No. 109CV140751, alleging that we have failed to properly maintain the Property and have improperly reduced the services provided to the tenants, among other allegations. We moved to compel arbitration and stay the proceedings, to dismiss the case, and to strike portions of the complaint. By order dated October 8, 2009, the Superior Court granted our motion to compel arbitration and stayed the court proceedings pending the outcome of the arbitration. The plaintiffs filed with the California Court of Appeal a petition for a writ seeking to overturn the Superior Court's arbitration and stay orders. On May 10, 2011, the Court of Appeal granted the petition and ordered the Superior Court to vacate its order compelling arbitration and to restore the matter to its litigation calendar for further proceedings. On May 24, 2011, we filed a petition for rehearing requesting the Court of Appeal to reconsider its May 10, 2011 decision. On June 8, 2011, the Court of Appeal denied the petition for rehearing. On June 16, 2011, we filed with the California Supreme Court a petition for review of the Court of Appeal's decision. On August 17, 2011, the California Supreme Court denied the petition for review.
The trial commenced on January 27, 2014. On April 14-15, 2014, the jury entered verdicts against our Operating Partnership of approximately $15.3 million in compensatory damages and approximately $95.8 million in punitive damages. On October 6, 2014, we filed a motion for a new trial and a motion for partial judgment notwithstanding the jury's verdict. On December 5, 2014, after briefing and a hearing on those motions, the Superior Court entered an order granting us a new trial on the issue of damages while upholding the jury's determination of liability. As grounds for the ruling, the Superior Court cited excessive damages and insufficiency of the evidence to support the verdict as to the amount of damages awarded by the jury. The Superior Court's ruling overturned the April 2014 verdicts of $15.3 million in compensatory damages and $95.8 million in punitive damages. On January 28, 2015, we and the plaintiffs each served notices of appeal from the Superior Court's December 5, 2014 order. The Court of Appeal issued an order setting the briefing sequence and ordered commencement of the briefing. On December 15, 2015, the plaintiffs filed their opening appellants’ brief; on March 25, 2016, we filed our combined respondents’ and opening brief; on July 8, 2016, the plaintiffs filed their combined reply and cross-respondents’ brief; and on September 26, 2016, we filed our reply brief, which was the final brief pursuant to the Court of Appeal's order setting forth the briefing sequence.
We believe the allegations are without merit, and we vigorously defended ourselves in the lawsuit. However, as described below in “Settlement of the California Hawaiian, Monte del Lago and Santiago Estates Matters,” we have entered into an agreement to settle this matter. See below for further details.
Monte del Lago
On February 13, 2015, a group of tenants at our Monte del Lago Property in Castroville, California filed a complaint in the California Superior Court for Monterey County, Case No. M131016, alleging that we have failed to properly maintain the Property and have improperly reduced the services provided to the tenants, among other allegations. On May 13, 2015, we filed a motion to compel arbitration with respect to certain plaintiffs and to stay the litigation pending the conclusion of the arbitration proceedings. Hearings on the motion were held on July 17, 2015 and September 18, 2015. On October 7, 2015, the Superior Court denied our motion. On December 3, 2015, we filed a notice of appeal from the denial of our motion, and on October 4, 2016, we filed our opening appellants' brief.

Santiago Estates
On September 4, 2015, a group of tenants at our Santiago Estates Property in Sylmar, California filed a complaint in the California Superior Court for Los Angeles County, Case No. BC593831, alleging that we have failed to properly maintain the Property and have improperly reduced the services provided to the tenants, among other allegations. We believe the allegations are without merit and intend to vigorously defend ourselves in the lawsuit.
On November 24, 2015, we filed a motion to compel arbitration with respect to certain plaintiffs and to stay the litigation pending the conclusion of the arbitration proceedings. The hearing on that motion was held on August 19, 2016, and the Superior Court granted our motion and ordered the plaintiffs subject to arbitration agreements to resolve all claims alleged in their complaint by arbitration and stayed the remainder of the litigation while the arbitration proceeded. On September 12, 2016, we filed a demand for arbitration seeking, among other things, a declaration, with respect to the plaintiffs subject to arbitration agreements, that their claims are without merit as well as for recovery of attorneys’ fees and costs. On September 30, 2016, plaintiffs filed an ex parte motion in the Superior Court requesting that the Superior Court stay the arbitration proceedings. The Superior Court heard oral argument on the motion on September 30, 2016, we filed a written opposition brief on October 5, 2016 and the Superior Court denied the motion on October 14, 2016. On October 18, 2016, the plaintiffs filed with the California Court of Appeal a petition for a writ seeking to overturn the Superior Court’s order compelling arbitration and requested an immediate stay of the arbitration. On October 19, 2016, the Court of Appeal denied the request for stay, without prejudice to plaintiffs’ resubmitting the request in the event they make a stay request to the arbitrator and that request is denied.
We believe the allegations are without merit, and we vigorously defended ourselves in the lawsuit. However, as described below in “Settlement of the California Hawaiian, Monte del Lago and Santiago Estates Matters,” we have entered into an agreement to settle this matter. See below for further details.
Settlement of the California Hawaiian, Monte del Lago and Santiago Estates Matters
On January 18, 2017, we entered into agreements pursuant to which we agreed to settle each of the California Hawaiian matter, the Monte del Lago matter and the Santiago Estates matter. The settlement agreements provide that $9.9 million will be paid to settle the California Hawaiian matter, $1.5 million will be paid to settle the Monte del Lago matter and $1.9 million will be paid to settle the Santiago Estates matter. As a result, a litigation settlement payable was recorded in Accrued expenses and accounts payable as of December 31, 2016. In addition, an insurance receivable was recorded in escrow deposits, goodwill and other assets, net as of December 31, 2016, resulting in a net settlement of approximately $2.4 million reflected as a component of property rights initiatives and other, net on the consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2016. Each of the three plaintiff groups is represented by the same law firm, and these settlements resolve all pending matters brought by plaintiffs’ counsel against us or any of our affiliates. Pursuant to the settlement agreements, all plaintiffs will provide full releases to each of the defendants and their affiliates including with respect to the claims alleged in the lawsuits, and each of the lawsuits and related appeals will be dismissed with prejudice. The settlements do not constitute an admission of liability by us or any of our affiliates and were made to avoid the costs, risks and uncertainties inherent in litigation.
Civil Investigation by Certain California District Attorneys
In November 2014, we received a civil investigative subpoena from the office of the District Attorney for Monterey County, California ("MCDA"), seeking information relating to, among other items, statewide compliance with asbestos and hazardous waste regulations dating back to 2005 primarily in connection with demolition and renovation projects performed by third-party contractors at our California Properties. We responded by providing the information required by the subpoena.
On October 20, 2015, we attended a meeting with representatives of the MCDA and certain other District Attorneys' offices at which the MCDA reviewed the preliminary results of their investigation including, among other things, (i) alleged violations of asbestos and related regulations associated with approximately 200 historical demolition and renovation projects in California; (ii) potential exposure to civil penalties and unpaid fees; and (iii) next steps with respect to a negotiated resolution of the alleged violations. No legal proceedings have been instituted to date and we are involved in settlement discussions with the District Attorneys' offices. We continue to assess the allegations and the underlying facts, and at this time we are unable to predict the outcome of the investigation or reasonably estimate any possible loss.

Alpine Lake RV Resort OSHA Citations
On February 19, 2016, we received a Citation and Notice of Penalty from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (“OSHA”) alleging two willful and seven serious safety violations relating to the design and maintenance of the electrical system at our Alpine Lake RV Resort in Corinth, New York, and assessing fines totaling $0.2 million. We have been working with a certified third-party electrician to address the items raised in the citations.
On March 9, 2016, we attended an informal conference in Albany, New York with the OSHA Area Director. The matter was not resolved at the meeting, and we filed the required notice of contest on March 10, 2016 after which the matter was transferred to the Occupational Safety & Health Review Commission, which is represented by a solicitor from the Department of Labor. The solicitor filed a complaint on May 20, 2016, and the parties participated in a formal settlement conference on June 22, 2016. The parties did not reach a settlement at the formal settlement conference. We are involved in settlement discussions; however, absent the parties reaching a settlement, we anticipate that this matter will proceed to trial, which is currently scheduled to take place in April 2017. We intend to continue to vigorously defend ourselves, and at this time we are unable to predict the outcome of this matter.
Other
In addition to legal matters discussed above, we are involved in various other legal and regulatory proceedings ("Other Proceedings") arising in the ordinary course of business. The Other Proceedings include, but are not limited to, notices, consent decrees, information requests, and additional permit requirements and other similar enforcement actions by governmental agencies relating to our utility infrastructure, including water and wastewater treatment plants and other waste treatment facilities and electrical systems. Additionally, in the ordinary course of business, our operations are subject to audit by various taxing authorities. Management believes these Other Proceedings taken together do not represent a material liability. In addition, to the extent any such proceedings or audits relate to newly acquired Properties, we consider any potential indemnification obligations of sellers in our favor.

Note 19—Reportable Segments
Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker evaluates and assesses performance on a monthly basis. Segment operating performance is measured on Net Operating Income ("NOI"). NOI is defined as total operating revenues less total operating expenses. Segments are assessed before interest income, depreciation and amortization of in-place leases.
We have identified two reportable segments: (i) Property Operations and (ii) Home Sales and Rentals Operations. The Property Operations segment owns and operates land lease Properties and the Home Sales and Rentals Operations segment purchases, sells and leases homes at the Properties. The distribution of the Properties throughout the United States reflects our belief that geographic diversification helps insulate the portfolio from regional economic influences.
All revenues are from external customers and there is no customer who contributed 10% or more of our total revenues during the three years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014. The following tables summarize our segment financial information (amounts in thousands):
