Operating Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2025

For the three months ended June 30, 2025, net income allocable to our common shareholders was $309.0 million or $1.76 per diluted common share, compared to $468.4 million or $2.66 per diluted common share for the same period in 2024, representing a decrease of $159.4 million or $0.90 per diluted common share. The decrease is due primarily to (i) a $158.5 million increase in foreign currency losses primarily associated with our Euro denominated notes payable, (ii) an $8.7 million decrease in equity in (loss) earnings of unconsolidated real estate entities, and (iii) a $5.5 million decrease in interest income, partially offset by (iv) a $7.7 million increase in self-storage net operating income.

The $7.7 million increase in self-storage net operating income in the three months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024 is a result of a $12.0 million increase attributable to our Non-Same Store Facilities (as defined below), partially offset by a $4.3 million decrease attributable to our Same Store Facilities. Revenues for the Same Store Facilities increased 0.2% or $2.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024, due primarily to higher realized annual rent per occupied square foot and a decline in occupancy. Cost of operations for the Same Store Facilities increased by 2.9% or $6.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024, due primarily to increased other direct property costs, repairs and maintenance expense and marketing expense, partially offset by decreased on-site property manager payroll. The increase in net operating income of $12.0 million for the Non-Same Store Facilities is due primarily to the impact of facilities acquired in 2024 and the lease-up of newly acquired and development/expansion properties.

Operating Results for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2025

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, net income allocable to our common shareholders was $667.2 million or $3.79 per diluted common share, compared to $927.6 million or $5.26 per diluted common share for the same period in 2024, representing a decrease of $260.4 million or $1.47 per diluted common share. The decrease is due primarily to (i) a $264.8 million increase in foreign currency exchange losses primarily associated with our Euro denominated notes payable partially offset by (ii) a $20.9 million increase in self-storage net operating income.

The $20.9 million increase in self-storage net operating income in the six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024 is a result of a $25.5 million increase attributable to our Non-Same Store Facilities, partially offset by a $4.6 million decrease attributable to our Same Store Facilities. Revenues for the Same Store Facilities increased 0.1% or $2.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024, due primarily to higher realized annual rent per occupied square foot offset by a decline in occupancy. Cost of operations for the Same Store Facilities increased by 1.5% or $7.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024, due primarily to increased property tax expense offset by decreased on-site property manager payroll expense. The increase in net operating income of $25.5 million for the Non-Same Store Facilities is due primarily to the impact of facilities acquired in 2023 and 2024.

Funds from Operations

Funds from Operations (“FFO”) and FFO per diluted common share (“FFO per share”) are non-GAAP measures defined by Nareit. We believe that FFO and FFO per share are useful to REIT investors and analysts in measuring our performance because Nareit’s definition of FFO excludes items included in net income that do not relate to or are not indicative of our operating and financial performance. FFO represents net income before real estate-related depreciation and amortization, which is excluded because it is based upon historical costs and assumes that building values diminish ratably over time, while we believe that real estate values fluctuate due to market conditions. FFO also excludes gains or losses on sale of real estate assets and real estate impairment charges, which are also based upon historical costs and are impacted by historical depreciation. FFO and FFO per share are not a substitute for net income or earnings per share. FFO is not a substitute for net cash flow in evaluating our liquidity or ability to pay dividends, because it excludes investing and financing activities presented on our consolidated statements of cash flows. In addition, other REITs may compute these measures differently, so comparisons among REITs may not be helpful.

For the three months ended June 30, 2025, FFO was $3.44 per diluted common share as compared to $4.30 for the same period in 2024, representing a decrease of 20.0%.

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, FFO was $7.15 per diluted common share as compared to $8.54 in the same period in 2024, representing a decrease of 16.3%.

We also present “Core FFO” and “Core FFO per share,” non-GAAP measures that represent FFO and FFO per share excluding the impact of (i) foreign currency exchange gains and losses, (ii) charges related to the redemption of preferred securities, and (iii) certain other non-cash and/or nonrecurring income or expense items primarily representing, with respect to the periods presented below, the impact of corporate transformation costs, loss contingencies, due diligence costs incurred in pursuit of strategic transactions, unrealized gain or loss on private equity investments, and amortization of acquired non real estate-related intangibles. We review Core FFO and Core FFO per share to evaluate our ongoing operating performance, and we believe they are used by investors and REIT analysts in a similar manner. However, Core FFO and Core FFO per share are not substitutes for net income and net income per share. Because other REITs may not compute Core FFO or Core FFO per share in the same manner as we do, may not use the same terminology, or may not present such measures, Core FFO and Core FFO per share may not be comparable among REITs.

Property Operations – Same Store Facilities

The Same Store Facilities consist of facilities that have been owned and operated on a stabilized level of occupancy, revenues, and cost of operations since January 1, 2023. Our Same Store Facilities increased from 2,507 facilities at December 31, 2024 to 2,565 at June 30, 2025. The composition of our Same Store Facilities allows us to more effectively evaluate the ongoing performance of our self-storage portfolio in 2023, 2024, and 2025 and exclude the impact of fill-up of unstabilized facilities, which can significantly affect operating trends. We believe the Same Store Facilities information is used by investors and analysts in a similar manner. However, because other REITs may not compute Same Store Facilities in the same manner as we do, may not use the same terminology, or may not present such a measure, Same Store Facilities may not be comparable among REITs. The following table summarizes the historical operating results (for all periods presented) of these 2,565 facilities (175.3 million net rentable square feet) that represent approximately 78% of the aggregate net rentable square feet of our U.S. consolidated self-storage portfolio at June 30, 2025 (unaudited):

(a)		Revenues and cost of operations do not include tenant reinsurance and merchandise sales and expenses generated at the facilities.
(b)		Direct net operating income (“Direct NOI”), a subtotal within NOI, is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact of supervisory payroll, centralized management costs, and share-based compensation in addition to depreciation and amortization expense. We utilize direct net operating income in evaluating property performance and in evaluating property operating trends as compared to our competitors.
(c)		See reconciliation of self-storage NOI to net income provided below.
(d)		Realized annual rent per occupied square foot is computed by dividing annualized rental income, before late charges and administrative fees, by the weighted average occupied square feet for the period. Realized annual rent per available square foot is computed by dividing annualized rental income, before late charges and administrative fees, by the total available rentable square feet for the period. These measures exclude late charges and administrative fees in order to provide a better measure of our ongoing level of revenue. Late charges are dependent upon the level of delinquency, and administrative fees are dependent upon the level of move-ins. In addition, the rates charged for late charges and administrative fees can vary independently from rental rates. These measures take into consideration promotional discounts, which reduce rental income.
(e)		Annual contract rent represents the agreed upon monthly rate that is paid by our tenants in place at the time of measurement. Contract rates are initially set in the lease agreement upon move-in, and we adjust them from time to time with notice. Contract rent excludes other fees that are charged on a per-item basis, such as late charges and administrative fees, does not reflect the impact of promotional discounts, and does not reflect the impact of rents that are written off as uncollectible.
(f)		Represents the absolute nominal change with respect to gross margin and square foot occupancy, and the percentage change with respect to all other items.

Property Operations – Non-Same Store Facilities

In addition to the 2,565 Same Store Facilities, we have 538 facilities that were not stabilized with respect to occupancies, revenues, or cost of operations since January 1, 2023 or that we did not own as of January 1, 2023, including 211 facilities that were acquired, 40 newly developed facilities, 62 facilities that have been expanded or are targeted for expansion, and 225 facilities that are unstabilized because they are undergoing fill-up or were damaged in casualty events (collectively, the “Non-Same Store Facilities”). Operating data, metrics, and further commentary with respect to these facilities, including detail by vintage, are included in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” under “Analysis of Net Income – Self-Storage Operations” in our June 30, 2025 Form 10-Q.

Investing and Capital Activities

During the three months ended June 30, 2025, we acquired 16 self storage facilities (six in Florida, three in Georgia, two in Colorado, two in Ohio, and one each in Pennsylvania, South Carolina, and Texas) with 1.1 million net rentable square feet for $162.3 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we acquired 25 self-storage facilities (nine in Florida, three in Georgia, four in Colorado, two in Ohio, two in South Carolina, two in Texas, and one each in Idaho, New Jersey and Pennsylvania) with 1.8 million net rentable square feet for $303.3 million. Subsequent to June 30, 2025, we acquired or were under contract to acquire 47 self-storage facilities across 17 states with 3.1 million net rentable square feet for $481.9 million.

During 2023, we acquired BREIT Simply Storage LLC (“Simply”), a self-storage company that owned and operated 127 self-storage facilities (9.4 million square feet) and managed 25 self-storage facilities (1.8 million square feet) for third parties, for a purchase price of $2.2 billion in cash. The Simply portfolio facilities generated self-storage revenues of $77.5 million, NOI of $53.9 million (including Direct NOI of $56.7 million), and average square footage occupancy of 88.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2025.

During the three months ended June 30, 2025, we opened two newly developed facilities and various expansion projects, which together contributed 0.2 million net rentable square feet (0.1 million in Hawaii and less than 0.1 million in Texas and New York) at a cost of $64 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we opened five newly developed facilities and various expansion projects, which together contributed 0.9 million net rentable square feet (0.4 million in California and 0.3 million in Texas, 0.1 million in Hawaii and less than 0.1 million in New York) at a cost of $208.4 million. At June 30, 2025, we had various facilities in development (expected to contribute 2.6 million net rentable square feet) estimated to cost $487.9 million and various expansion projects (expected to contribute 1.2 million net rentable square feet) estimated to cost $160.2 million. Our aggregate 3.8 million net rentable square foot pipeline of development and expansion facilities includes 1.8 million in Florida, 0.7 million in California, 0.3 million in Texas, and 0.1 million each in Arizona, Colorado, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Nevada, New York, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia. The remaining $390.9 million of development costs for these projects are expected to be incurred primarily in the next 18 to 24 months.

On July 13, 2025, Ki Corporation (“Ki”) and Public Storage (together, the “Consortium”) announced a revised non-binding indicative offer to acquire all of the outstanding stapled securities of Abacus Storage King (ASX:ASK) that are not already held by Ki or its subsidiaries (together, the “Ki Group”) for A$1.65 per stapled security. The Ki Group is currently ASK’s major securityholder. Under the terms of the revised offer, Public Storage’s share of the total estimated cost, excluding direct transaction costs, would be approximately $710 million (A$1.08 billion), anticipated to be funded with Australian Dollar denominated unsecured debt. Abacus Storage King is one of the largest self-storage owners in Australia and New Zealand with approximately 126 operating properties, 21 development sites, and 75 managed properties. The structure of the transaction is subject to finalization, and the transaction is subject to a number of conditions, including due diligence, negotiation of a definitive agreement, and legal, regulatory, and shareholder approvals.

Outlook for the Year Ending December 31, 2025

Set forth below are our current expectations with respect to full year 2025 Core FFO per share and certain underlying assumptions. In reliance on the exception provided by applicable SEC rules, we do not provide guidance for GAAP net income per share, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, or a reconciliation of 2025 Core FFO per share to GAAP net income per share because we are unable to reasonably predict the following items which are included in GAAP net income: (i) gains or losses on sales of real estate investments, (ii) foreign currency exchange gains and losses, (iii) charges related to the redemption of preferred securities, and (iv) certain other significant non-cash and/or nonrecurring income or expense items. The actual amounts for any and all of these items could significantly impact our 2025 GAAP net income and, as disclosed in our historical financial results, have significantly impacted GAAP net income in prior periods.

Non-Same Store Net Operating Income Beyond 2025:
Incremental Non-Same Store NOI to stabilization (2026 and beyond)		$110,000		$80,000

(a)		Both the low-end and high-end of the expected revenue growth from our Same Store Facilities in 2025 include a negative 1% estimated impact from the self-storage facilities located in Los Angeles County, where a temporary governmental pricing limitation is in place under the “State of Emergency” declarations following the wildfires in Southern California in early 2025. This leads to a negative $0.23 per share impact on both the low-end and high-end of the estimated Core FFO per share for 2025.
(b)		Based on total same store cost of operations and net operating income (i.e., not direct), as reflected in the summary table for Same Store Facilities above.
(c)		Excludes any significant non-recurring general and administrative expense items.
(d)		Energy efficiency initiatives primarily include solar panel installation.

(a)

FAD represents FFO adjusted to exclude certain non-cash charges and to deduct recurring capital expenditures, which do not include capital expenditures for energy efficiencies including LED lighting and solar panel installation. We utilize FAD in evaluating our ongoing cash flow available for investment, debt repayment, and common distributions. We believe investors and analysts utilize FAD in a similar manner. FAD is not a substitute for GAAP net cash flow in evaluating our liquidity or ability to pay dividends, because it excludes investing and financing activities presented on our statements of cash flows. In addition, other REITs may compute this measure differently, so comparisons among REITs may not be helpful.

(a)

Net operating income or “NOI” is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact of depreciation and amortization expense, which is based upon historical costs and assumes that building values diminish ratably over time, while we believe that real estate values fluctuate due to market conditions. We utilize NOI in determining current property values, evaluating property performance, and evaluating operating trends. We believe that investors and analysts utilize NOI in a similar manner. NOI is not a substitute for net income, operating cash flow, or other related GAAP financial measures, in evaluating our operating results. This table reconciles from NOI for our self-storage facilities to the net income presented on our income statement.
