Portfolio Activity
Property Add-on
In connection with the acquisition of a 366-acre vineyard located in Napa, California (“Withers Road”), on August 28, 2019, we committed to provide up to approximately $4.0 million as additional compensation, contingent upon the County of Napa approving the planting of additional vineyards on up to 47 acres of the property by February 25, 2020 (the “Permit Deadline”). In addition, if approval was obtained, we also committed to contribute up to $40,000 per approved acre for the development of such vineyards. Approval of the additional plantings was not received from the County of Napa by the Permit Deadline, and, as such, we were relieved of our obligation to remit any additional compensation. However, in March 2020, we executed an agreement with the tenant on Withers Road to extend the Permit Deadline until August 24, 2020.
In April 2020, we received notification from the County of Napa informing us that it approved of additional vineyard plantings on 38.7 acres on the property. As such, we will be required to pay additional compensation related to this acquisition of approximately $3.2 million, which will be paid during the three months ending June 30, 2020. As provided for in the lease, we will earn additional rent on all of the aforementioned costs as they are incurred by us.
Leasing Activity
The following table summarizes the leasing activity that occurred on our existing properties subsequent to March 31, 2020, through the date of this filing (dollars in thousands):
Equity Activity
Series C Preferred Stock
Offering
On April 3, 2020, we filed the Series C Prospectus Supplement with the SEC for a continuous public offering (the “Series C Offering”) of up to 26,000,000 shares of the Series C Preferred Stock. The Series C Offering permits us to sell up to 20,000,000 shares (the “Primary Series C Offering”) of our Series C Preferred Stock on a “reasonable best efforts” basis through Gladstone Securities at an offering price of $25.00 per share and up to 6,000,000 shares of our Series C Preferred Stock pursuant to the DRIP at a price of $22.75 per share. See Note 6, “Related-Party Transactions—Gladstone Securities—Series C Dealer-Manager Agreement,” for a discussion of the commissions and fees to be paid to Gladstone Securities in connection with the Series C Offering.
The Primary Series C Offering will terminate on the date (the “Series C Termination Date”) that is the earlier of either June 1, 2025 (unless terminated earlier or extended by our Board of Directors), or the date on which all 20,000,000 shares in the Primary Series C Offering are sold.
There is currently no public market for shares of the Series C Preferred Stock; however, we intend to apply to list the Series C Preferred Stock on Nasdaq or another national securities exchange within one calendar year after the Series C Termination Date, though there can be no assurance that a listing will be achieved in such timeframe, or at all.
Assuming all shares of the Series C Preferred Stock are sold in both the Primary Series C Offering and through the DRIP, we expect the Series C Offering to result in gross proceeds of up to $636.5 million and net proceeds, after deducting selling commissions, dealer-manager fees, and estimated expenses of the offering payable by us, of up to approximately $591.5 million. We intend to use the net proceeds from the Series C Offering to repay existing indebtedness, to fund future acquisitions, and for other general corporate purposes. See below under “—Equity Issuances” for sales of the Series C Preferred Stock that have occurred through the date of this filing. Further, as of March 31, 2020, we had incurred approximately $252,000 of costs related to the Series C Offering, which have been recorded as deferred offering costs and are included in Other assets, net on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2020.
Company and Shareholder Redemption Options
We may not redeem the Series C Preferred Stock prior to the later of (i) the first anniversary of the Series C Termination Date (as defined in the Articles Supplementary), or (ii) June 1, 2024 (except in limited circumstances relating to our continuing qualification as a REIT). On and after the later of (x) the first anniversary of the Series C Termination Date or (y) June 1, 2024, we may, at our option, redeem the Series C Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, by making payment of $25.00 per share, plus any accumulated and unpaid dividends up to but excluding the date of redemption.
Commencing on April 8, 2020 (or, if after April 8, 2020, we suspend the optional redemption right of the holders of Series C Preferred Stock, on the date we reinstate such right), and terminating on the earlier to occur of (i) the date upon which the Board, by resolution, suspends or terminates the optional redemption right of the holders of Series C Preferred Stock, or (ii) the date on which shares of Series C Preferred Stock are listed on a national securities exchange, holders of Series C Preferred Stock may, at their option, require the Company to redeem any or all of their shares of Series C Preferred Stock at a redemption price per share of Series C Preferred Stock equal to $22.50 in cash. In addition, we have the authority to suspend or terminate all shareholder redemption options at any time, in our sole discretion.
Equity Issuances
The following table provides information on equity sales that have occurred subsequent to March 31, 2020 (dollars in thousands, except per-share amounts):
In addition, subsequent to March 31, 2020, 400 shares of the Series B Preferred Stock were tendered for redemption at a cash redemption price of $22.50 per share. As a result, we paid a total redemption cost of $9,000 to redeem and retire these shares.
Distributions
On April 14, 2020, our Board of Directors authorized and we declared the following monthly cash distributions to holders of our preferred and common stock:
The same amounts paid to common stockholders will be paid as distributions on each OP Unit held by non-controlling OP Unitholders as of the above record dates.
COVID-19
During and subsequent to March 31, 2020, the pandemic caused by the spread of COVID-19 has impacted most countries, communities, and markets. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may impact our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, or prospects will depend on numerous evolving factors that are out of our control and that we are not able to predict at this time.
As of the date of this filing, all of our tenants are current in their rental payments to us, with the exception of one tenant who owes us an annual rental installment of approximately $56,000, which payment was due in April. Based on the tenant’s seven-year credit history and reported sales volumes, we ultimately expect full collection of this amount. In addition, we have not received any requests from tenants seeking rent relief as a result of COVID-19. If, however, we receive rent relief requests in the future from tenants that have been materially and adversely impacted by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, as assessed by us, in exchange for granting any such relief, we intend to seek certain favorable lease modification terms in exchange for granting such relief, if any, including, but not limited to, extended lease terms, increased rent, and near-term rent deferral repayments. In addition, if we were to grant any rent deferrals, we anticipate that any such agreements would include partial payments in exchange for rent deferrals of varying terms, with all deferred amounts to be paid back to us over a specified, short-term period. At this time, we are unable to quantify the success of any tenant’s financial prospects, the amount of any future relief requests from tenants, or the outcome of any future relief package negotiations, if such relief is granted.
