“We’ve now been public for over two years, having listed without any shareholder lock-ups on February 11, 2022, mere weeks before the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the Fed’s expedient climb up the yield curve. To date, our entire publicly-traded existence has been during one of the more pronounced risk-off trade environments. REITs have been plagued by a historic increase in interest rates and a backdrop of heightened geo-political risk and price volatility. All of this has effectively left public REITs, who rely upon the capital markets, bereft of an opportunity to show meaningful growth. Yet, Modiv Industrial, a diminutive tardigrade of the stock market, has been able to produce eight quarters of transformational growth – accretively shedding non-core assets while building a stalwart industrial manufacturing portfolio. We may currently be the size of a water bear, but we have the fighting spirit of a grizzly.
For those quant hedge funds and the AI text bots still with us, feel free to drop off as the remainder of this release has more words than numbers and has been written for those that spend their time analyzing management’s thinking.
Business Outlook:
Acquisitions – Yes, that’s right, no acquisitions for fourth quarter or YTD 2024. As we mentioned in last quarter’s release, we take the Buffett-esque view that, at this stage of the market cycle, we can afford to stand over the plate looking for the fat pitch without fear of strikes being called. We saw several pitches, even a few where our grip of the bat twitched a bit, but we didn’t swing. What did swing though was market sentiment, with greed and fear tussling about, from a December sentiment when folks were speculating about a March Fed cut to recent rhetoric fearing that the Fed might not cut at all this year. We believe that there will be no shortage of assets to acquire, and we believe this because we have no shortage of the patience needed to wait for the right opportunities.
Dispositions – $135 million 55% of the portfolio was office and less than 20% industrial. With our recently announced sale contract with a national homebuilder to buy our Issaquah, Washington office asset, we are now down to two office properties which I have the highest confidence will be the easiest to sell. Two years ago, we quickly surmised that few would pay attention to our transformation while it was happening, but they sure as heck would pay attention to see that it did happen. Happen it has, drama-free and at a fast clip. There is still some portfolio maneuvering to be completed, with some likely to occur in 2024, so we will continue to keep our nose to the grindstone.
Balance Sheet – We now have $281 million 100% of which is at fixed rates, with a weighted average interest rate of 4.52% and a weighted average maturity of 3.4 years with the earliest maturity not until January 2027. Our debt to asset ratio is 48% , our debt to adjusted EBITDA multiple is 6.6x.
Barring a compelling consolidation or M&A opportunity, we do not see any further benefit in using additional leverage and intend to make any single asset purchases on an unlevered basis with the intent that our $150 million
A healthy counterbalance to our manageable debt load is a ~$600 million portfolio of 42 assets producing over $44 million 2.5% per annum, with a hearty weighted average lease duration of approximately 14 years. Any future acquisitions, most likely on the heels of our remaining capital recycling activity, will help to further strengthen our future.
Strategic Partner – For those who are new to this topic, we encourage you to read our third quarter 2023 earnings release for a bit of back story. For those anxiously waiting to decipher our latest cave paintings, we are now under ten nondisclosure agreements (with several others working with public info only) with a list of organizations that are well known and far more impressive than us. Yes, many of these organizations are private-equity (PE) firms, or at the very least have private-equity mindsets. We hereby affectionately call this journey ‘Project Fuh.’
For those who don’t know, a stereotypical dialogue with a potential PE partner goes something like this…1) an enthusiastic kick-off call with a lot of friendly banter, from them, about how their firm’s flexibility and creativity can help MDV; 2) a nearly glazed over look from them when you describe that which you seek, all the while, nodding their heads in agreement; 3) a healthy due diligence deep dive, typically on the backs of some junior analyst tasked to complete too many models in too short a time frame; and 4) an end result whereby they tell you they need a total rate of return that you might find more appropriate for a growth stock like Nvidia or Tesla all the while seeking a guaranteed, or nearly so, repayment of any capital they invest.
Clearly, I jest (in part) as not all our conversations suffered from such hyperbole, but several did. I feel for them though as they have all raised institutional funds predicated on past performances and today’s market is not yet feeding them the deals like they saw in yesteryears. We get it, they are the titans of the money universe, and they are used to getting their way with wayward companies lining up with hats in hand seeking alms. Alas, even though we are a lowly REIT who would enjoy some capital, we don’t own a hat and, as such, aren’t in any state of desperation.
That said, all is not lost. We have had some very productive conversations with firms that believe in our asset class and see the opportunity. We have discussed terms with these parties that are worthy of continued consideration. Terms that contemplate contributing industrial manufacturing assets in exchange for equity. Terms that contemplate contributing additional equity capital to be used to further consolidate the many buckets of manufacturing assets out there that we know exist (and that we actively monitor). Terms that could, potentially, accelerate our transformation and provide the scale our REIT needs to be even more vibrant. Terms that might just be actionable. Our management team is working with our independent board of directors to contemplate, discern and diligence all the varying terms that have been discussed. There is nothing material to report today, and there may never be, but there is more to come on this topic.
Sundry thoughts:
Raison D ’ etre – I have long been a fan of Simon Sinek’s classic, Start With WHY , and how it advocates for having a clear purpose. A large part of our job as management, beyond the buying and selling of real estate, is to educate those who wish to know more. One of the more common questions I get is ‘Why Manufacturing?’ Let’s tackle this question with a rhetorical triangle…
Logos – 1989 marked a seminal year for U.S. manufacturing, it was the year that Eastman Kodak not only decided to outsource their manufacturing to a third party, but they did so overseas. Sure, as early as the late 70’s we saw a few international manufacturing conglomerates shuffle production to their various owned facilities across the globe, but Kodak’s decision began an accelerated trend in U.S. business to ‘offshore’ large swaths of the once dominant U.S. manufacturing capability. As we know, China was one of the earliest to capitalize on this trend by building manufacturing facilities which in turn helped fuel its multi-decade economic growth and improved the economic quality of life of many Chinese citizens. Concurrently, countless business school professors began to teach the glorious simplicity of a global-just-in-time-delivery supply chain model whereby the smart corporate manager could globally arbitrage labor costs, keep thin inventories and benefit from being an asset-light company. For the past thirty years, the U.S. consciously chose to underinvest in U.S. manufacturing and fully embrace a supply chain model that was inherently dependent on the premise that it would always work.
Flash forward to 2020 and we have seen rampant supply disruptions emerge from a slew of uncharacteristically frequent ‘black swan’ events to include the COVID-19 pandemic (LINK ), the Russian invasion of Ukraine (LINK ), the physical limitations of the Panama Canal (LINK ) and the geo-political risk threatening the Suez Canal/Red Sea (LINK ).
The culmination of events has led to considerable economic, military, and political discourse. Thought leaders now clearly recognize that the past 30+ year pursuit of economic profit has resulted in a massive under investment in U.S. manufacturing capacity, particular for those critical infrastructure items that are essential to a nation’s viability (LINK ).
As a result of the new level of awareness, we have witnessed the emergence of several government economic initiatives (e.g. CHIPS Act, etc.) to spur a long-term manufacturing reinvestment process while at the same time many corporate leaders have decided to accept the risk of higher cost of goods sold for their critical components in order to reduce, or eliminate, the risk of even costlier supply chain disruptions. The value of domestic manufacturing has come back into our collective purview and strong economic tailwinds for the sector have only just begun.
We own manufacturing assets because we clearly see their critical need, their economic value and believe that countless others will soon begin to see the same.
Pathos – Modiv’s culture is about as politically agnostic as they come (think purple and balanced), but when it comes to our fellow citizens, we patriotically bleed red, white and blue. For me personally, maybe it’s part of my origin, living in a trailer in Indiana when my dad got promoted from electrician to the maintenance supervisor at a manufacturing facility. Or maybe it’s the time I spent working in a poultry processing factory in West Virginia or the time I spent in the United States Air Force learning how to fix electronics in Mississippi . Or maybe it’s what I learned from my father and uncles who worked summer jobs picking cotton in the Arkansas heat. Whatever the reason, I care deeply about the well-being of our nation, about our collective quality of life and the belief that the rungs of life’s ladder should at least attempt to lead us to a better vantage point. I know that my team cares as much as I do. As such, we are mindful of capitalism’s impact on human life as it marches toward the never-ending goal to maximize profit. REITs, being capitalistic constructs, exist to maximize real estate profit for their investors; however, such pursuits can sometimes have unintended consequences. For example, in the net-lease REIT sector, most of these REITs rely upon the continuous consumption of cheap goods by the American citizen as their portfolios are chock full of dollar stores, fast food chains, pharmacies, car washes and, in some instances, even casinos – all capitalistic venues that entice individuals to spend their money on things they very likely don’t need. So many of these property concepts sell things and so few make things.
If you travel the heartland of America, like we do when we tour manufacturing assets, you see so many small towns pervaded with low paying, low skill retail jobs and their streets lined with redundant franchises. Yes, on the margin, we do need elements of these retail concepts, but overall, it definitely reminds us that too much of something can be detrimental in the long run.
We own manufacturing assets because we believe that, as humans, we benefit more in our daily lives from making things of critical value rather than the constant consuming of things of questionable value.
Ethos – A REIT’s management team, and particularly the role of the CEO, exist to advocate for, and steward the well-being of, the capital entrusted by its many REIT investors. It is a prerequisite that a company’s leadership have the necessary levels of expertise, integrity, and alignment to perform their duties. However, it is rare in the for-hire executive ranks to find leadership that holds the same level of extreme passion for their business, mission, and advocacy as we find from the famous entrepreneurs that we have all come to admire and fawn over. When I invest my hard-earned capital in a particular stock, I want the leader of that company to be absolutely relentless in thinking about all that can go wrong while focusing on making sure as many things go right. Further, I want them to be a raving fan for the investment at a level of motivation that no amount of compensation can induce.
Maybe because of my background, I find that I resonate with this asset class at a level that likely makes me look a bit different than your standard REIT CEO – and I am ok with that. I feel blessed to be the scrappy type who can tirelessly champion the benefits of owning manufacturing real estate to all that will listen. Culturally here at Modiv, we are comfortable with the role of the underdog and wake up every morning willing to fight the fight by embracing our inner Johnny Cash (LINK ).
We own manufacturing assets because we are extraordinarily passionate about this asset class, for our investment thesis and for the tremendous upside potential we see for all MDV investors.
Calf Kicks – I have been a fan of the UFC for about 20 years, rarely missing a PPV. Over the years I have witnessed the evolution of this form of combat sport as the tactics, strategies, athleticism, and skills have been honed to an impressive degree. One byproduct of this evolution is the calf kick. Whereas the jab exists for the upper body, the calf kick exists for the lower body. A hard and fast kick to the calf, especially right below the knee, can stun or stumble a fighter. Excessive kicks to the calf, usually a result of someone not learning to avoid them, will likely leave a fighter limping out of the octagon – possibly with a loss and a pair of crutches. However, a few kicks to the calf early in the fight do not portend failure but rather are more likely to cause the best champions to alter their gameplan, learn valuable lessons and go on to prevent calf kicks, and their resulting pain, altogether. Oftentimes, those initial kicks will make you better.
We pride ourselves here at Modiv on being candid and transparent. It would be disingenuous for us to only speak of the great things and never deal with the not-so-great. Like everyone, our stuff can stink too, and we have recently suffered from a few non-fatal, kicks to our proverbial calf (e.g. Kalera).
As we have stated in our SEC filings over the past quarters and in our forthcoming 2023 Form 10-K, Kalera, which was the tenant in our Saint Paul, Minnesota property, filed for bankruptcy protection and is seeking to reject our lease. Kalera’s mistake was relying upon a SPAC transaction to successfully close amidst the massive risk-off market environment that resulted from the Fed’s rate increase – it didn’t go according to their plan. Beyond them no longer paying rent, they left several mechanics liens on the property that we ultimately had to pay. The process is ongoing, but we fully expect that we will soon have full control over the destiny of this property. Given the leasing and sale prospects we have for the asset as well as the value confirmation from two recent independent appraisals valuing it at an average of $11.9 million $10 million
We are grateful this investment hasn’t resulted in a broken nose or a concussion, but as a REIT team always looking to improve, we have learned a few lessons to prevent future calf kicks. Namely, we will no longer invest in early stage or pre-revenue growth concepts without substantial credit behind the lease. Instead, we will continue to hone our focus on those assets which have benefited from survivorship bias having survived years of global outsourcing and multiple Federal Reserve Chairs. We will also never again do a related party transaction. Even though the fact that it was sourced, arms-length, from a related party had nothing to do with the lease failure, it is a terrible look if not a black eye. We have learned lessons; we have modified our gameplan and we will continue to strive to serve you better tomorrow than we did yesterday.
Wordy Missives – Why all the dialogue? Surely, some have contemplated that exact question. Despite errant speculation that maybe we are trying to emulate a certain oracle of the Midwest, the truth lies distinctly within two broader thoughts – 1) the simplicity of REITs and 2) infinite monetary returns.
If I may…
The simplicity of REITs – For those who have heard me speak, they have heard me say that this REIT business isn’t a terribly complicated one. There is no risk of life or limb, which makes for a better job than many. There are roughly 150 publicly traded REITs in North America , with a rough average of three named executive officers per REIT – let’s round up and say there are 500 of these so-called ‘executives.’ If you think about it, that is a more exclusive club than what you might find with the NFL, MLB, or NBA. If the REITs are the teams, then management are the players. You, the savvy REIT investor, get to choose the players that you want to play in your league.
Infinite monetary returns – Have you ever picked up a penny off the ground? I do every chance I can because that one cent of monetary return is infinite when you consider I invested no money in exchange for that penny (a dime is a real treat because I liken it to a monthly MDV dividend). Most don’t know this, but when you list on a public stock exchange you typically get some listing benefits. In our case, when we listed on the NYSE, we got four years’ worth of earnings press releases for free. A typical press release might cost you anywhere from $500 $1,000 $1,000
Ok, that’s a wrap. Until next time. Stay Modivated!” – Aaron Halfacre, CEO of Modiv Industrial.

FFO is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”) as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding extraordinary items, as defined by GAAP, and gains and losses from sales of depreciable operating property, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs and depreciation of non-real estate assets), and after adjustment for unconsolidated partnerships, joint ventures, preferred distributions and real estate impairments. Because FFO calculations adjust for such items as depreciation and amortization of real estate assets and gains and losses from sales of operating real estate assets (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates), they facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between other REITs. As a result, we believe that the use of FFO, together with the required GAAP presentations, provides a more complete understanding of our performance relative to our competitors and a more informed and appropriate basis on which to make decisions involving operating, financing, and investing activities. It should be noted, however, that other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the current Nareit definition or may interpret the current Nareit definition differently than we do, making comparisons less meaningful.
Additionally, we use AFFO as a non-GAAP financial measure to evaluate our operating performance. AFFO excludes non-routine and certain non-cash items such as revenues in excess of cash received, stock-based compensation, deferred rents, amortization of in-place lease valuation intangibles, deferred financing fees, gain or loss from the extinguishment of debt, unrealized gains (losses) on derivative instruments, and write-offs of due diligence expenses for abandoned pursuits. We also believe that AFFO is a recognized measure of sustainable operating performance by the REIT industry. Further, we believe AFFO is useful in comparing the sustainability of our operating performance with the sustainability of the operating performance of other real estate companies. Management believes that AFFO is a beneficial indicator of our ongoing portfolio performance and ability to sustain our current distribution level. More specifically, AFFO isolates the financial results of our operations. AFFO, however, is not considered an appropriate measure of historical earnings as it excludes certain significant costs that are otherwise included in reported earnings. Further, since the measure is based on historical financial information, AFFO for the period presented may not be indicative of future results or our future ability to pay our dividends.
By providing FFO and AFFO, we present information that assists investors in aligning their analysis with management’s analysis of long-term operating activities. For all of these reasons, we believe the non-GAAP measures of FFO and AFFO, in addition to income (loss) from operations, net income (loss) and cash flows from operating activities, as defined by GAAP, are helpful supplemental performance measures and useful to investors in evaluating the performance of our real estate portfolio. AFFO is useful in assisting management and investors in assessing our ongoing ability to generate cash flow from operations and continue as a going concern in future operating periods. However, a material limitation associated with FFO and AFFO is that they are not indicative of our cash available to fund distributions since other uses of cash, such as capital expenditures at our properties and principal payments of debt, are not deducted when calculating FFO and AFFO. Therefore, FFO and AFFO should not be viewed as a more prominent measure of performance than income (loss) from operations, net income (loss) or cash flows from operating activities and each should be reviewed in connection with GAAP measurements.
Neither the SEC, Nareit, nor any other applicable regulatory body has opined on the acceptability of the adjustments contemplated to adjust FFO in order to calculate AFFO and its use as a non-GAAP performance measure. In the future, the SEC or Nareit may decide to standardize the allowable exclusions across the REIT industry, and we may have to adjust the calculation and characterization of this non-GAAP measure.

We define Net Debt as gross debt less cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. We define Adjusted EBITDA as GAAP net income or loss adjusted to exclude real estate related depreciation and amortization, gains or losses from the sales of depreciable property, extraordinary items, provisions for impairment on real estate investments and goodwill, interest expense, non-cash items such as stock compensation and write-offs of transaction costs and other one-time transactions. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they are widely accepted industry measures used by analysts and investors to compare the operating performance of REITs. EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP, and our EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. You should not consider our EBITDA as an alternative to net income or cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP.
