Funds from Operations
FFO for the second quarter of 2011 was $16.0 million, compared to $10.6 million for the second quarter of 2010. FFO per share was $0.15 per share for the second quarter of 2011, compared to $0.11 per share for the same quarter of last year.
2011 Investment Activity
The Company acquired one self-storage facility in the first quarter of 2011 that contained approximately 91,000 rentable square feet located in the northern Virginia suburbs of Washington, D.C.
During the second quarter of 2011, the Company acquired four self-storage facilities containing approximately 257,000 rentable square feet located in Miami, Florida; White Plains, New York; Houston, Texas; and Phoenix, Arizona.
During the third quarter of 2011, through the date of this release, the Company acquired four self-storage facilities containing approximately 227,000 rentable square feet located in suburban Atlanta, Georgia and Jacksonville, Florida.
The nine assets acquired year-to-date are located in the Company's targeted investment markets, contain an aggregate 575,000 square feet and were acquired for a total investment of approximately $70.7 million. The Company expects to close on $42.9 million of additional facility acquisitions during the third quarter that it currently has under contract. Including closed facility acquisitions and facility acquisitions under contract, year-to-date investment activity totals $113.6 million.
Christopher Marr, President & Chief Investment Officer said, "We continue to execute on our strategy of improving the quality of the cash flows from our portfolio. Our acquisitions to date in our core markets, including Washington D.C. and New York City, have us approaching the high end of our guidance of investing $75 to $125 million. We expect our 2011 dispositions will provide proceeds at the high end of our $35 to $50 million guidance based on assets currently under contract or in contract negotiations. We targeted a 15% increase in our third party management contracts and our activity to date gives us a high degree of confidence in meeting or exceeding that objective."
Same-Store Results
The Company's same-store pool at June 30, 2011 represented 350 facilities containing approximately 22.8 million rentable square feet and included approximately 95.3% of the aggregate rentable square feet of the Company's 367 owned facilities. These same-store facilities represent approximately 93.0% of property net operating income for the quarter ended June 30, 2011.
The same-store physical occupancy at period end for the second quarter of 2011 was 79.8% compared to 77.8% for the same quarter of last year. Same-store net rental income for the second quarter of 2011 increased 2.4%, same-store total revenues increased 3.5% and same-store operating expenses decreased 2.3% over the same quarter in 2010. Same-store net operating income increased 7.4% compared to the same quarter of 2010.

Average physical occupancy of the same-store pool for 2011 was 77.6% as compared to 76.0% during 2010.
Balance Sheet
On June 20, 2011, the Company entered into a $200 million unsecured term loan facility (the "Term Loan Facility"). The Term Loan Facility consists of a $100 million term loan with a five-year maturity and a $100 million term loan with a seven-year maturity. At closing, the effective fixed interest rate on the five-year term loan was 3.70% and the effective fixed interest rate on the seven-year term loan was 4.52%.
Proceeds from the term loans were used to repay $100 million of the existing unsecured term loan scheduled to mature in 2013, approximately $31 million of various secured loans having a weighted average interest rate of 7.25%, amounts drawn on the Company's unsecured revolving line of credit and for general corporate purposes.
Pricing on the Term Loan Facility is based on a borrowing spread over LIBOR. The borrowing spread is determined by our leverage levels or our investment grade credit rating once received. The facility contains customary affirmative and negative covenants that, among other things, require us to comply with leverage, liquidity and net worth tests. The company entered into interest rate swap agreements effective on the closing date that fix LIBOR on both the $100 million five-year term loan and the $100 million seven-year term loan through their respective maturity dates.
At June 30, 2011, $100 million of unsecured term loan borrowings and $9 million of unsecured revolving credit facility borrowings were outstanding under the Credit Facility, $200 million of unsecured term loan borrowings were outstanding under the Term Loan Facility, and $241 million was available for borrowing under the Credit Facility.
During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company repaid $2.7 million of secured loans that had maturity dates in 2011 and $30.7 million of secured loans that had maturity dates in 2014.
Investment Grade Rating
On July 13, 2011, the Company announced that its operating partnership, U-Store-It, L.P., was assigned a Baa3 issuer rating by Moody's Investors Service with a stable outlook.

Operating Results
The Company reported net income attributable to the Company of $0.9 million in the second quarter of 2011, compared to a net loss attributable to the Company of $4.5 million or $0.05 per common share in the second quarter of 2010. Total revenues increased $6.2 million and total property operating expenses increased $1.3 million in the second quarter of 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. Increases in total revenues are attributable to increased occupancy levels in the same-store portfolio, revenues generated from property acquisitions and increased revenues generated from our third-party management business. Increases in total property operating expenses are attributable to $1.2 million of increased expenses associated with newly acquired properties and a full quarter of expenses related to the addition of 85 management contracts in April 2010 as compared to the second quarter of 2010.
During the second quarter, the Company repaid $100 million of unsecured term loan borrowings under its credit facility that matures in 2013. Under that agreement, the Company may not re-borrow term loans once repaid. Accordingly, the Company expensed during the quarter $2.1 million of previously unamortized costs associated with the portion of the loan that was repaid.
Interest expense decreased approximately $1.6 million in the second quarter of 2011, compared to the second quarter of 2010, primarily related to approximately $136 million of net mortgage loan repayments during the period from April 1, 2010 through June 30, 2011.
The Company's second quarter results include $1.9 million of income from discontinued operations. This income represents settlement proceeds the Company received in conjunction with a property that was taken by the State of California through eminent domain proceedings in 2009 as part of a roadway expansion project.
The Company's 367 owned facilities, containing 24.0 million rentable square feet, had a physical occupancy at June 30, 2011 of 79.5% and an average physical occupancy for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 of 78.2%.
Quarterly Dividend
On June 1, 2011, the Company declared a dividend of $0.07 per share. The dividend was paid on July 22, 2011, to shareholders of record on July 7, 2011.
2011 Financial Outlook
"Strong operating performance in the first half of 2011 has created upward revisions in our internal growth assumptions as well as our FFO expectations for the year. We have increased our same-store revenue, net operating income, and FFO per share expectations and reduced our same-store expense growth assumptions," said Timothy Martin, Chief Financial Officer. "In addition to raising our earnings estimates, our year-to-date investment activity drives our expectation of meeting the upper end of our acquisition and disposition assumptions. The unsecured term loans we completed this quarter further improved our balance sheet position and we received an investment grade rating from Moody's. We are on track to fully deliver on our strategic objectives for 2011."
The Company is adjusting its previously issued estimates as well as the underlying same-store assumptions, and now expects that its fully-diluted FFO per share for 2011 will be between $0.60 and $0.63 (versus previous estimate of $0.56 to $0.61 per share), and that its fully-diluted net income per share for the period will be between $0.05 and $0.08. The Company's estimate is based on the following key assumptions:
- For 2011, the same-store pool consists of 350 assets totaling 22.9 million square feet
- Same-store revenue growth increased to a current assumption of 3.5% to 3.8% over 2010 (previously 2.5% to 3.5%)
- Same-store expense growth decreased to a current assumption of 1.0% to 2.0% over 2010 (previously 2.0% to 3.0%)
- Same-store net operating income growth increased to a current assumption of 4.5% to 5.5% over 2010 (previously 2.5% to 3.5%)
- General and administrative expenses of approximately $25.5 million to $26.5 million

About U-Store-It Trust
U-Store-It Trust is a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust. The Company's self-storage facilities are designed to offer affordable, easily accessible and secure storage space for residential and commercial customers. According to the Self-Storage Almanac, U-Store-It Trust is one of the top four owners and operators of self-storage facilities in the United States.
Non-GAAP Performance Measurements
FFO is a widely used performance measure for real estate companies and is provided here as a supplemental measure of operating performance. The Company calculates FFO in accordance with the best practices described in the April 2002 National Policy Bulletin of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (the "White Paper"). The White Paper defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.
Management uses FFO as a key performance indicator in evaluating the operations of the Company's facilities. Given the nature of its business as a real estate owner and operator, the Company considers FFO a key measure of its operating performance that is not specifically defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The Company believes that FFO is useful to management and investors as a starting point in measuring its operational performance because it excludes various items included in net income that do not relate to or are not indicative of its operating performance such as gains (or losses) from sales of property and depreciation, which can make periodic and peer analyses of operating performance more difficult. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of the Company's financial performance, is not an alternative to cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of the Company's liquidity, and is not indicative of funds available to fund the Company's cash needs, including its ability to make distributions.
We define net operating income, which we refer to as "NOI," as total continuing revenues less continuing property operating expenses. NOI also can be calculated by adding back to net income (loss): interest expense on loans, loan procurement amortization expense, loan procurement amortization expense - early repayment of debt, acquisition related costs, amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests, other expense, depreciation and amortization expense, general and administrative expense, and deducting from net income: income from discontinued operations, gains on disposition of discontinued operations, other income, and interest income. NOI is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP.
Management uses NOI as a measure of operating performance at each of our facilities, and for all of our facilities in the aggregate. NOI should not be considered as a substitute for operating income, net income, cash flows provided by operating, investing and financing activities, or other income statement or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP.
