Essex Announces Fourth Quarter and Full-Year 2023 Results and 2024 Guidance
Essex Property Trust, Inc. (NYSE: ESS) announced its Q4 and full-year 2023 earnings, including a net income decline of 64.3% for Q4 and a 0.8% increase for the full year. Core FFO per diluted share grew by 1.6% for Q4 and 3.6% for the full year, exceeding guidance. Same-property revenues and NOI grew by 2.9% and 2.3% for Q4, and 4.4% and 4.3% for the full year, with Southern California and Northern California showing positive growth. The company repurchased shares and disposed of one apartment community. However, it recognized a $33.7 million impairment on a preferred equity investment in Oakland, CA.
Positive
Core FFO per diluted share growth exceeding guidance
Positive same-property revenues and NOI growth
Share repurchases and disposal of one apartment community
Negative
Net income decline of 64.3% for Q4
Impairment of $33.7 million on a preferred equity investment
The reported financial results from Essex Property Trust, Inc. show a mixed picture. While Net Income per diluted share for the fourth quarter significantly decreased by 64.3% year-over-year, the full-year Net Income only saw a marginal increase of 0.8%. This suggests a potential concern for profitability in the short term, though the impact over the entire year was less drastic. The Core Funds from Operations (FFO) , a key metric for real estate investment trusts (REITs) as it indicates the cash generated, grew by 3.6% for the year, which is positive for investors as it may translate to a stable or increasing dividend.
Moreover, the company's same-property revenue and NOI growth exceeded guidance, which is a sign of operational efficiency and could be a positive indicator for the company's stock performance. The disposal of non-core assets and the repurchase of shares , which can be seen as a move to optimize capital allocation, may also be viewed favorably by the market. However, the impairment recognized on one preferred equity investment is a negative factor that could raise concerns about the quality of investments and the potential for further impairments.
Looking at the guidance for 2024, the projected decline in Net Income could be a red flag for investors, suggesting that the company is anticipating some headwinds. The assumptions underlying the guidance, particularly in terms of economic growth and job growth in the markets where Essex operates, will be critical factors to monitor. The guidance indicates a cautious approach to acquisitions and development, which may impact growth potential but also suggests a focus on financial stability.
Essex Property Trust operates in a highly competitive and regionally specific market, making the submarket performance critical to understanding its business dynamics. The year-over-year revenue growth in certain areas, such as San Diego and Ventura counties, outpaced other regions, which could indicate a stronger market demand or better operational management in those submarkets. This geographical performance variation is essential for potential investors to consider, as it may impact the company's resilience to market fluctuations.
The same-property portfolio's occupancy rates have remained relatively stable, which is a positive sign of demand for the company's properties. This stability, combined with the revenue growth, suggests that Essex's portfolio is well-positioned in its markets, potentially offering a degree of insulation against economic downturns.
On the investment front, Essex's strategy of engaging in preferred equity investments with a weighted average return rate of 12.6% showcases an alternative revenue stream that could be attractive to investors looking for diversified income sources within the REIT sector. However, the impairment on the Oakland investment is a reminder of the risks involved with such investments.
For stakeholders in the REIT industry, the Core FFO is a more relevant performance indicator than net income, as it excludes gains or losses from property sales and depreciation, providing a clearer picture of operating performance. Essex's increase in Core FFO is indicative of solid operational performance, which is key for REIT investors concerned with dividend stability and growth.
The liquidity position of approximately $1.6 billion provides Essex with ample room to navigate market changes, fund acquisitions, or manage debt obligations. This is a critical factor for investor confidence, especially in uncertain economic times. The company's share repurchase program , which demonstrates management's belief that the stock may be undervalued, is another aspect that could influence investor sentiment.
Essex's guidance for 2024, with a Core FFO per diluted share midpoint that is flat compared to 2023, indicates management's expectation of a challenging year ahead, potentially due to economic headwinds or market saturation. This projection will be a key point of analysis for investors trying to gauge the future performance of the company in relation to the broader REIT market.

FFO RECONCILIATION
FFO, as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), is generally considered by industry analysts as an appropriate measure of performance of an equity REIT. Generally, FFO adjusts the net income of equity REITs for non-cash charges such as depreciation and amortization of rental properties, impairment charges, gains on sales of real estate and extraordinary items. Management considers FFO and FFO which excludes non-core items, which is referred to as “Core FFO,” to be useful supplemental operating performance measures of an equity REIT because, together with net income and cash flows, FFO and Core FFO provide investors with additional bases to evaluate the operating performance and ability of a REIT to incur and service debt and to fund acquisitions and other capital expenditures and to pay dividends. By excluding gains or losses related to sales of depreciated operating properties and land and excluding real estate depreciation (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates), FFO can help investors compare the operating performance of a real estate company between periods or as compared to different companies. By further adjusting for items that are not considered part of the Company’s core business operations, Core FFO allows investors to compare the core operating performance of the Company to its performance in prior reporting periods and to the operating performance of other real estate companies without the effect of items that by their nature are not comparable from period to period and tend to obscure the Company’s actual operating results. FFO and Core FFO do not represent net income or cash flows from operations as defined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and are not intended to indicate whether cash flows will be sufficient to fund cash needs. These measures should not be considered as alternatives to net income as an indicator of the REIT's operating performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. FFO and Core FFO do not measure whether cash flow is sufficient to fund all cash needs including principal amortization, capital improvements and distributions to stockholders. FFO and Core FFO also do not represent cash flows generated from operating, investing or financing activities as defined under GAAP. Management has consistently applied the NAREIT definition of FFO to all periods presented. However, there is judgment involved and other REITs’ calculation of FFO may vary from the NAREIT definition for this measure, and thus their disclosures of FFO may not be comparable to the Company’s calculation.
The following table sets forth the Company’s calculation of diluted FFO and Core FFO for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 (in thousands, except for share and per share amounts):

Net Operating Income (“NOI”) and Same-Property NOI Reconciliations
NOI and same-property NOI are considered by management to be important supplemental performance measures to earnings from operations included in the Company’s consolidated statements of income. The presentation of same-property NOI assists with the presentation of the Company’s operations prior to the allocation of depreciation and any corporate-level or financing-related costs. NOI reflects the operating performance of a community and allows for an easy comparison of the operating performance of individual communities or groups of communities. In addition, because prospective buyers of real estate have different financing and overhead structures, with varying marginal impacts to overhead by acquiring real estate, NOI is considered by many in the real estate industry to be a useful measure for determining the value of a real estate asset or group of assets. The Company defines same-property NOI as same-property revenues less same-property operating expenses, including property taxes. Please see the reconciliation of earnings from operations to NOI and same-property NOI, which in the table below is the NOI for stabilized properties consolidated by the Company for the periods presented (dollars in thousands):
