EXPLANATORY NOTE

This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2017, of Prologis, Inc. and Prologis, L.P. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to “Prologis, Inc.” or the “Parent” mean Prologis, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries; and references to “Prologis, L.P.” or the “Operating Partnership” mean Prologis, L.P., and its consolidated subsidiaries. The terms “the Company,” “Prologis,” “we,” “our” or “us” means the Parent and the Operating Partnership collectively.

 

The Parent is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) and the general partner of the Operating Partnership. At March 31, 2017, the Parent owned an approximate 97.31% common general partnership interest in the Operating Partnership and 100% of the preferred units in the Operating Partnership. The remaining approximate 2.69% common limited partnership interests are owned by nonaffiliated investors and certain current and former directors and officers of the Parent. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Parent has complete responsibility and discretion in the day-to-day management and control of the Operating Partnership.

 

We operate the Parent and the Operating Partnership as one enterprise. The management of the Parent consists of the same members as the management of the Operating Partnership. These members are officers of the Parent and employees of the Operating Partnership or one of its subsidiaries. As general partner with control of the Operating Partnership, the Parent consolidates the Operating Partnership for financial reporting purposes. Because the only significant asset of the Parent is its investment in the Operating Partnership, the assets and liabilities of the Parent and the Operating Partnership are the same on their respective financial statements.

We believe combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of the Parent and the Operating Partnership into this single report results in the following benefits:

enhances investors’ understanding of the Parent and the Operating Partnership by enabling investors to view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business;

eliminates duplicative disclosure and provides a more streamlined and readable presentation as a substantial portion of the Company’s disclosure applies to both the Parent and the Operating Partnership; and

creates time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports.

 

It is important to understand the few differences between the Parent and the Operating Partnership in the context of how we operate the Company. The Parent does not conduct business itself, other than acting as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and issuing public equity from time to time. The Parent itself does not incur any indebtedness, but it guarantees the unsecured debt of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership holds substantially all the assets of the business, directly or indirectly, and holds the ownership interests in the Company’s investment in certain entities. The Operating Partnership conducts the operations of the business and is structured as a partnership with no publicly traded equity. Except for net proceeds from equity issuances by the Parent, which are contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for partnership units, the Operating Partnership generates capital required by the business through the Operating Partnership’s operations, incurrence of indebtedness and issuance of partnership units to third parties.

 

The presentation of noncontrolling interests, stockholders’ equity and partners’ capital are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of the Parent and those of the Operating Partnership. The preferred stock, common stock, additional paid-in capital, accumulated other comprehensive loss and distributions in excess of net earnings of the Parent are presented as stockholders’ equity in the Parent’s consolidated financial statements. These items represent the common and preferred general partnership interests held by the Parent in the Operating Partnership and are presented as general partner’s capital within partners’ capital in the Operating Partnership’s consolidated financial statements. The common limited partnership interests held by the limited partners in the Operating Partnership are presented as noncontrolling interest within equity in the Parent’s consolidated financial statements and as limited partners’ capital within partners’ capital in the Operating Partnership’s consolidated financial statements. The differences in the presentations between stockholders’ equity and partners’ capital result from the differences in the equity and capital issuances at the Parent and Operating Partnership levels.

                

To highlight the differences between the Parent and the Operating Partnership, separate sections in this report, as applicable, individually discuss the Parent and the Operating Partnership, including separate financial statements and separate Exhibit 31 and 32 certifications. In the sections that combine disclosure of the Parent and the Operating Partnership, this report refers to actions or holdings as being actions or holdings of Prologis.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. GENERAL

 

Business. Prologis, Inc. (or the “Parent”) commenced operations as a fully integrated real estate company in 1997, elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”), and believes the current organization and method of operation will enable it to maintain its status as a REIT. The Parent is the general partner of Prologis, L.P. (or the “Operating Partnership”). Through the Operating Partnership, we are engaged in the ownership, acquisition, development and management of logistics properties in the world’s primary population centers and in those supported by extensive transportation infrastructure. Our current business strategy consists of two operating business segments: Real Estate Operations and Strategic Capital. Our Real Estate Operations segment represents the ownership and development of logistics properties. Our Strategic Capital segment represents the management of co-investment ventures and other unconsolidated entities. See Note 10 for further discussion of our business segments. Unless otherwise indicated, the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements apply to both the Parent and the Operating Partnership. The terms “the Company,” “Prologis,” “we,” “our” or “us” means the Parent and Operating Partnership collectively.

 

For each share of common stock or preferred stock the Parent issues, the Operating Partnership issues a corresponding common or preferred partnership unit, as applicable, to the Parent in exchange for the contribution of the proceeds from the stock issuance. At March 31, 2017, the Parent owned an approximate 97.31% common general partnership interest in the Operating Partnership and 100% of the preferred units in the Operating Partnership. The remaining approximate 2.69% common limited partnership interests, which include 8.9 million Class A common limited partnership units (“Class A Units”) in the Operating Partnership, are owned by unaffiliated investors and certain current and former directors and officers of the Parent. Each partner’s percentage interest in the Operating Partnership is determined based on the number of Operating Partnership units held, including the number of Operating Partnership units into which Class A Units are convertible, compared to total Operating Partnership units outstanding at each period end and is used as the basis for the allocation of net income or loss to each partner. At the end of each reporting period, a capital adjustment is made in the Operating Partnership to reflect the appropriate ownership interest for each of the common unitholders. These adjustments are reflected in the line items Reallocation of Equity in the Consolidated Statement of Equity and Reallocation of Capital in the Consolidated Statement of Capital.

 

As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Parent has complete responsibility and discretion in the day-to-day management and control of the Operating Partnership and we operate the Parent and the Operating Partnership as one enterprise. The management of the Parent consists of the same members as the management of the Operating Partnership. These members are officers of the Parent and employees of the Operating Partnership or one of its subsidiaries. As general partner with control of the Operating Partnership, the Parent consolidates the Operating Partnership. Because the Parent’s only significant asset is its investment in the Operating Partnership, the assets and liabilities of the Parent and the Operating Partnership are the same on their respective financial statements.

 

Basis of Presentation. The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and are presented in our reporting currency, the U.S. dollar. All material intercompany transactions with consolidated entities have been eliminated.

 

The accompanying unaudited interim financial information has been prepared according to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in our annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations. Our management believes that the disclosures presented in these financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In our opinion, all adjustments and eliminations, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations for both the Parent and the Operating Partnership for the reported periods have been included. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. The accompanying unaudited interim financial information should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, as filed with the SEC, and other public information.

 

Certain amounts included in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements for 2016 have been reclassified to conform to the 2017 financial statement presentation. This included two reclassifications made in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The first was a reclassification of distributions from our unconsolidated entities from investing activities to operating activities due to the adoption of the accounting standard update that provided guidance for areas in which there was diversity in how certain cash receipts and payments were presented and classified. The second was the reclassification of payments from operating activities to financing activities due to the accounting standard update that amended the stock compensation requirements in existing GAAP.

 

New Accounting Pronouncements.

 

New Accounting Standards Adopted

 

In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an accounting standard update that clarifies the definition of a business. The update adds further guidance that assists preparers in evaluating whether a transaction will be accounted for as an

9

 


 

acquisition of an asset or a business. We expect most of our acquisitions of operating properties and portfolios of operating properties to qualify as asset acquisitions under the standard that permits the capitalization of acquisition costs to the basis of the acquired buildings. We adopted this standard on January 1, 2017, on a prospective basis, and the adoption did not have a significant impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

New Accounting Standards Issued but not yet Adopted

 

Revenue Recognition. In May 2014, the FASB issued an accounting standard that requires companies to use a five-step model to determine when to recognize revenue from customer contracts in an effort to increase consistency and comparability throughout global capital markets and across industries. We are evaluating each of our revenue streams and related accounting policy under the standard. Rental revenues and recoveries earned from leasing our operating properties will be evaluated with the adoption of the lease accounting standard (discussed below). Our evaluation under the revenue recognition standard also includes sales to third parties and unconsolidated co-investment ventures as well as recurring fees and promotes earned from our co-investment ventures. While we do not expect changes in the recognition of recurring fees earned from the co-investment ventures, we are evaluating both the timing and measurement of promotes earned from co-investment ventures that may result in recognizing such fees when they are probable of being earned. For sales to third parties, primarily a disposition of real estate in exchange for cash with few contingencies, we do not expect the standard to significantly impact the recognition of or accounting for these sales. In February 2017, in connection with the revenue recognition standard, the FASB issued a standard that provides the accounting treatment for gains and losses from the derecognition of non-financial assets, including the accounting for partial sales. Upon adoption of the standard, we will recognize the entire gain attributed to sales to unconsolidated co-investment ventures rather than the third party share we recognize today. Both the revenue recognition and derecognition of non-financial assets standards are effective for us on January 1, 2018. In addition to the recognition changes discussed above, expanded quantitative and qualitative disclosures regarding revenue recognition will be required for contracts that are subject to the standard. We expect to adopt the standards on a modified retrospective basis. 

 

Leases. In February 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard that provides the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases.

 

The accounting for lessors will remain largely unchanged from current GAAP; however, the standard requires that lessors expense, on an as-incurred basis, certain initial direct costs that are not incremental in negotiating a lease. Under existing standards, certain of these costs are capitalizable and therefore this new standard may result in certain of these costs being expensed as incurred after adoption. This standard may also impact the timing, recognition and disclosures related to our rental recoveries from tenants earned from leasing our operating properties.

 

Under the standard, lessees apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases. A lessee is required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months, regardless of their lease classification. We are a lessee on ground leases in certain markets and office space leases. At December 31, 2016, we had approximately 90 ground and office space leases that will require us to measure and record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability upon adoption of the standard. There have been no significant changes to our ground and office space leases since December 31, 2016.

 

The standard is effective for us on January 1, 2019. We are assessing the practical expedients available for implementation under the standard. If the practical expedients are elected, we would not be required to reassess (i) whether an expired or existing contract meets the definition of a lease, (ii) the lease classification at the adoption date for expired or existing leases, and (iii) whether costs previously capitalized as initial direct costs would continue to be amortized. The standard will also require new disclosures within the notes accompanying our Consolidated Financial Statements. We will continue to assess the method of adoption and the overall impact the adoption will have on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 3. UNCONSOLIDATED ENTITIES

 

Summary of Investments

 

We have investments in entities through a variety of ventures. We co-invest in entities that own multiple properties with partners and investors and provide asset and property management services to these entities, which we refer to as co-investment ventures. These entities may be consolidated or unconsolidated, depending on the structure, our partner’s participation and other rights and our level of control of the entity. This note details our investments in unconsolidated co-investment ventures, which are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. See Note 6 for more detail regarding our consolidated investments.

11

 


 

 

We also have other ventures, generally with one partner and that we do not manage, which we account for using the equity method. We refer to our investments in all entities accounted for using the equity method, both unconsolidated co-investment ventures and other ventures, collectively, as unconsolidated entities.

Unconsolidated Co-Investment Ventures

 

The amounts recognized in Strategic Capital Revenues and Earnings from Unconsolidated Entities, Net depend on the size and operations of the co-investment ventures, the timing of revenues earned through promotes during the life of a venture or upon liquidation, as well as fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We recognized Strategic Capital Expenses for direct costs associated with the asset management of these ventures and allocated property-level management costs for the properties owned by the ventures. Our ownership interest in these ventures also impacts the earnings we recognize.

The difference between our ownership interest of a venture’s equity and our investment balance at March 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, results principally from three types of transactions: (i) deferring a portion of the gains we recognize from a contribution of a property to a venture ($465.3 million and $469.9 million, respectively); (ii) recording additional costs associated with our investment in a venture ($124.4 million and $124.1 million, respectively); and (iii) advances to a venture ($155.1 million and $166.1 million, respectively). Included in the advances to our ventures at March 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, were receivables from Nippon Prologis REIT, Inc. (“NPR”) of $102.3 million and $96.9 million, respectively, related to customer security deposits that originated through a leasing company owned by us that pertain to properties owned by NPR. We have a corresponding payable to NPR’s customers in Other Liabilities.

Represents our weighted average ownership interest in all co-investment ventures based on each entity’s contribution of total assets, before depreciation, net of other liabilities.

In January 2017, we sold our investment in ELV to our fund partner for $84.3 million and ELV contributed its properties to Prologis Targeted Europe Logistics Fund (“PTELF”) in exchange for equity interests.

 

(4)

In February 2017, we formed the Prologis United Kingdom Logistics Venture (“UKLV”), an unconsolidated co-investment venture in which we have a 15.0% ownership interest. UKLV will acquire land, develop buildings and operate and hold logistics real estate assets in the United Kingdom (“U.K.”). Upon formation, we, along with our venture partner, committed £380.0 million ($474.9 million at March 31, 2017), of which our share is £57.0 million ($71.2 million at March 31, 2017). In February 2017, we contributed a portfolio of 3.9 million square feet of stabilized properties, properties under development and land for approximately £202.9 million ($252.1 million). We expect to continue to contribute properties into UKLV as they become stabilized, along with land.

NOTE 4. ASSETS HELD FOR SALE OR CONTRIBUTION

 

We have investments in certain real estate properties that met the criteria to be classified as held for sale or contribution at March 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016. These properties are expected to be sold to third parties or contributed to unconsolidated co-investment ventures within twelve months. The amounts included in Assets Held for Sale or Contribution represented real estate investment balances and the related assets and liabilities for each property.

The interest rates presented represent the effective interest rates (including amortization of debt issuance costs and the noncash premiums or discounts) at the end of the period for the debt outstanding.

 

(2)

Included in the outstanding balances are borrowings denominated in non-U.S. dollars, principally: euro ($3.4 billion), Japanese yen ($1.4 billion), Canadian dollars ($0.4 billion) and British pounds sterling ($37.5 million).

 

(3)

As discussed in Note 6, we acquired all of our partner’s interest in Prologis North American Industrial Fund, therefore, the related secured mortgage debt of $958.9 million is now wholly-owned and reported as secured mortgages.

 

Credit Facilities

 

We have a global senior credit facility (the “Global Facility”), under which we may draw in British pounds sterling, Canadian dollars, euro, Japanese yen and U.S. dollars on a revolving basis up to $3.0 billion (subject to currency fluctuations). We have the ability to increase the Global Facility to $3.8 billion, subject to currency fluctuations and obtaining additional lender commitments. Pricing under the Global Facility, including the spread over LIBOR, facility fees and letter of credit fees, varies based on the public debt ratings of the Operating Partnership. The Global Facility is scheduled to mature in April 2020; however, we may extend the maturity date for six months on two occasions, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and payment of extension fees.

 

We also have a Japanese yen revolver (the “Revolver”). In February 2017, we renewed and amended the Revolver to increase our availability from ¥45.0 billion to ¥50.0 billion ($447.1 million at March 31, 2017). We have the ability to increase the Revolver to ¥65.0 billion ($581.3 million at March 31, 2017), subject to obtaining additional lender commitments. Pricing under the Revolver, including the spread over LIBOR, facility fees and letter of credit fees, varies based on the public debt ratings of the Operating Partnership. The Revolver is scheduled to mature in February 2021; however, we may extend the maturity date for one year, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and payment of extension fees.

 

We refer to the Global Facility and the Revolver, collectively, as our “Credit Facilities.”

Term Loans

 

In March 2017, we entered into an unsecured senior term loan agreement (the “2017 Yen Term Loan”) under which we can draw in Japanese yen, of which ¥7.2 billion ($64.4 million at March 31, 2017) matures in March 2027 and bears interest of 0.92% and ¥4.8 billion ($42.9 million at March 31, 2017) matures in March 2028 and bears interest of 1.01%. In the first quarter of 2017, we borrowed ¥12.0 billion ($107.3 million), causing the 2017 Yen Term Loan to be fully drawn at March 31, 2017.

 

Long-Term Debt Maturities

Debt Covenants

 

We have approximately $6.5 billion of senior notes and $1.8 billion of term loans outstanding at March 31, 2017, under three separate indentures, as supplemented, and are subject to certain financial covenants. We are also subject to financial covenants under our Credit Facilities and certain secured mortgage debt. At March 31, 2017, we were in compliance with all financial covenants.

 

NOTE 6. NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS

 

Prologis, L.P.

 

We report noncontrolling interests related to several entities we consolidate but of which we do not own 100% of the equity. These entities include two real estate partnerships that have issued limited partnership units to third parties. Depending on the specific partnership agreements, these limited partnership units are redeemable for cash or, at our option, shares of the Parent’s common stock, generally at a rate of one share of common stock to one unit. We also consolidate several entities in which we do not own 100% of the equity and the units of the entity are not convertible or redeemable.

Prologis, Inc.

 

The noncontrolling interests of the Parent include the noncontrolling interests presented in the Operating Partnership, as well as the common limited partnership units in the Operating Partnership that are not owned by the Parent.

In March 2017, we acquired all of our partner’s interest for $79.8 million. The difference between the amount we paid and the noncontrolling interest balance was adjusted through Additional Paid-in Capital with no gain or loss recognized. At December 31, 2016, the assets of the Brazil Fund were primarily investments in unconsolidated entities of $113.1 million. For additional information on our unconsolidated investments, see Note 3.

 

(3)

This line item includes our two partnerships that have issued limited partnership units to third parties, as discussed above, along with various other consolidated entities. At March 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, limited partnership units were redeemable for cash or, at our option, 1.8 million shares of the Parent’s common stock. In 2017, limited partnership units were redeemed for 40 thousand shares of the Parent’s common stock.

 

(4)

We had 8.9 million Class A Units that were convertible into 8.6 million and 8.7 million common limited partnership units of the Operating Partnership at March 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, respectively.

 

(5)

At March 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, excluding the Class A Units, there were common limited partnership units in the Operating Partnership outstanding that were redeemable for cash or, at our option, 4.1 million shares and 4.6 million shares of the Parent’s common stock with a fair value of $214.3 million and $241.8 million, respectively, based on the closing stock price of the Parent’s common stock. During 2017, unitholders redeemed 0.6 million common limited partnership units for an equal number of shares of the Parent’s common stock with a value of $15.8 million. At March 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, there were 3.6 million and 2.2 million LTIP Units (as defined in Note 7) outstanding, respectively, associated with our long-term compensation plan that are convertible into common units of the Operating Partnership after they vest and other applicable conditions are met.

 

NOTE 7. LONG-TERM COMPENSATION

 

Prologis Outperformance Plan (“POP”)

 

We granted participation points for the 2017 – 2019 performance period in January 2017, with a fair value of $20.4 million using a Monte Carlo valuation model that assumed a risk-free interest rate of 1.49% and an expected volatility of 22.2%. Participation points represent a portion of a compensation pool that can be earned if and when certain performance criterion is met under the POP for the applicable performance period.

 

The POP performance criterion was met for the 2014 – 2016 performance period, which resulted in awards for this performance period being earned. An aggregate performance pool of $62.2 million was awarded in January 2017 in the form of common stock or vested POP LTIP Units.

No stock options were granted in 2017 or 2016.

 

NOTE 8. EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE OR UNIT

 

We determine basic earnings per share or unit based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock or units outstanding during the period. We compute diluted earnings per share or unit based on the weighted average number of shares or units outstanding combined with the incremental weighted average effect from all outstanding potentially dilutive instruments.

NOTE 9. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

In the normal course of business, our operations are exposed to market risks, including the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. To manage these risks, we may enter into derivative contracts, such as foreign currency contracts to

manage foreign currency exposure, and interest rate swaps to manage the effect of interest rate fluctuations. We do not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. Our derivative financial instruments are customized transactions and are not exchange-traded. Management reviews our hedging program, derivative positions and overall risk management strategy on a regular basis. We enter into only those transactions we believe will be highly effective at offsetting the underlying risk. There have been no significant changes in our policy or strategy from what was disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.

As discussed below, these foreign currency options are not designated as hedges. We recognized unrealized losses of $13.7 million and $16.8 million in Foreign Currency and Derivative Losses, Net from the change in value of our outstanding foreign currency options for the three months ended March 31, 2017, and 2016, respectively.

 

Foreign Currency

 

We primarily manage our foreign currency exposure by borrowing in the currencies in which we invest. We may issue debt in a currency that is not the same functional currency of the borrowing entity to offset the translation and economic exposures related to our net investment in international subsidiaries. To mitigate the impact of the translation from the fluctuations in exchange rates, we may designate this debt as a nonderivative financial instrument hedge. We also hedge our investments in certain international subsidiaries using foreign currency derivative contracts (net investment hedges) to offset the translation and economic exposures related to our investments in these subsidiaries by locking in a forward exchange rate at the inception of the hedge. To the extent we have an effective hedging relationship, we report all changes in fair value of the hedged portion of the nonderivative financial instruments and net investment hedges in equity in the foreign currency translation component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss (“AOCI”) in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. These amounts offset the translation adjustments on the underlying net assets of our foreign investments, which we also record in AOCI. The changes in fair value of the portion of the nonderivative financial instruments that are not designated as hedges are recorded in Foreign Currency and Derivative Losses, Net in the Consolidated Statements of Income. We recognize ineffectiveness, if any, in earnings at the time the ineffectiveness occurred.

 

We may use foreign currency option contracts, including puts, calls and collars to mitigate foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with the translation of our projected net operating income of our international subsidiaries. These are not designated as hedges as they do not meet hedge accounting requirements. Changes in the fair value of non-hedge designated derivatives are recorded in Foreign Currency and Derivative Losses, Net.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, and 2016, we exercised 11 and 8 option contracts and realized gains of $5.3 million and $1.7 million, respectively, in Foreign Currency and Derivative Losses, Net.

 

Interest Rate

 

We may enter into interest rate swap agreements that allow us to receive variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for us making fixed-rate payments over the life of our agreements without the exchange of the underlying notional amount.

 

We report the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative as a component of AOCI and reclassify it to Interest Expense over the corresponding period of the hedged item. We recognize any hedge ineffectiveness in Interest Expense at the time the ineffectiveness occurred. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, and 2016, we did not have losses due to hedge ineffectiveness.

 

At March 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, we had three interest rate swaps outstanding with a notional amount of $271.2 million. We did not enter into or settle any interest rate swaps during the three months ended March 31, 2017, or 2016.

 

Other Comprehensive Income

 

The change in Other Comprehensive Income in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income during the periods presented is due to the translation of the financial statements into U.S. dollars of our consolidated subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar for which we recorded gains of $81.9 million and $154.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, and 2016, respectively. It also includes the change in fair value for the effective portion of our derivative and nonderivative instruments that have been designated as hedges.

The amounts reclassified to interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2017, and 2016, were $1.4 million and $1.0 million, respectively. For the next 12 months from March 31, 2017, we estimate an additional expense of $5.5 million will be reclassified to Interest Expense.

 

(3)

At March 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, we had €3.2 billion ($3.4 billion) of debt, net of accrued interest, respectively, designated as nonderivative financial instrument hedges of our net investment in international subsidiaries. We recognized unrealized losses of $4.1 million in Foreign Currency and Derivative Losses, Net on the unhedged portion of our debt for the three months ended March 31, 2017. We did not recognize any gains or losses for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

There have been no significant changes in our policy from what was disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.

 

Fair Value Measurements on a Recurring Basis

 

At March 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, other than the derivatives discussed previously, we did not have any significant financial assets or financial liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis in the Consolidated Financial Statements. All of our derivatives held at March 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, were classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

Fair Value Measurements on Nonrecurring Basis

 

No assets met the criteria to be measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at March 31, 2017, or December 31, 2016.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

At March 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, the carrying amounts of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts and notes receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses were representative of their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

 

The differences in the fair value of our debt from the carrying value in the table below are the result of differences in interest rates or borrowing spreads that were available to us at March 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, as compared with those in effect when the debt was issued or assumed. The senior notes and many of the issues of secured mortgage debt contain pre-payment penalties or yield maintenance provisions that could make the cost of refinancing the debt at lower rates exceed the benefit that would be derived from doing so.

NOTE 10. BUSINESS SEGMENTS

 

Our current business strategy consists of two operating segments: Real Estate Operations and Strategic Capital. We generate revenues, earnings, net operating income and cash flows through our segments, as follows:

 

Real Estate Operations. This operating segment represents the ownership and development of operating properties and is the largest component of our revenues and earnings. We collect rent from our customers through operating leases, including reimbursements for the majority of our property operating costs. Each operating property is considered to be an individual operating segment with similar economic characteristics; these properties are combined within the reportable segment based on geographic location. Our Real Estate Operations segment also includes development activities that lead to rental operations, including land held for development and properties currently under development. Within this line of business, we utilize the following: (i) our land bank; (ii) the development expertise of our local teams; (iii) our customer relationships; and (iv) our in-depth knowledge in connection with our development activities. Land we own and lease to customers under ground leases is also included in this segment.

 

Strategic Capital. This operating segment represents the management of unconsolidated co-investment ventures. We generate strategic capital revenues from our unconsolidated co-investment ventures through asset management and property management services and we earn additional revenues by providing leasing, acquisition, construction, development, financing and disposition services. Depending on the structure of the venture and the returns provided to our partners, we also earn revenues through promotes periodically during the life of a venture or upon liquidation. Each unconsolidated co-investment venture we manage is considered to be an individual operating segment with similar economic characteristics; these ventures are combined within the reportable segment based on geographic location.

 

Reconciliations are presented below for: (i) each reportable business segment’s revenues from external customers to Total Revenues; (ii) each reportable business segment’s net operating income from external customers to Operating Income and Earnings Before Income Taxes; and (iii) each reportable business segment’s assets to Total Assets. Our chief operating decision makers rely primarily on net operating income and similar measures to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing segment performance. The applicable components of Total Revenues, Operating Income, Earnings Before Income Taxes and Total Assets are allocated to each reportable business segment’s revenues, net operating income and assets. Items that are not directly assignable to a segment, such as certain corporate income and expenses, are not allocated but reflected as reconciling items. The following reconciliations are presented in thousands:

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Prologis, Inc.:

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Prologis, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of March 31, 2017, the related consolidated statements of income, and consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the related consolidated statement of equity for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017, and the related consolidated statements of cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

 

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

 

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

 

As discussed in Note 1 of the consolidated financial statements, the Company has changed its method for classifying distributions received from equity method investees in the statements of cash flows for all periods presented at March 31, 2017, on a retrospective basis, due to the early adoption of Accounting Standards Update 2016-15.

 

We have previously audited, in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of Prologis, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2016, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, equity and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 14, 2017, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

The following should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes included in Item 1 of this report and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

 

The statements in this report that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the industry and markets in which we operate as well as management’s beliefs and assumptions. Such statements involve uncertainties that could significantly impact our financial results. Words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” and “estimates” including variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature. All statements that address operating performance, events or developments that we expect or anticipate will occur in the future — including statements relating to rent and occupancy growth, development activity and contribution or disposition activity, general conditions in the geographic areas where we operate, our debt, capital structure and financial position, our ability to form new co-investment ventures and the availability of capital in existing or new co-investment ventures — are forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Although we believe the expectations reflected in any forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance that our expectations will be attained, and therefore actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking statements. Some of the factors that may affect outcomes and results include, but are not limited to: (i) national, international, regional and local economic and political climates, (ii) changes in global financial markets, interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, (iii) increased or unanticipated competition for our properties, (iv) risks associated with acquisitions, dispositions and development of properties, (v) maintenance of REIT status, tax structuring and changes in income tax rates, (vi) availability of financing and capital, the levels of debt that we maintain and our credit ratings, (vii) risks related to our investments in our co-investment ventures, including our ability to establish new co-investment ventures, (viii) risks of doing business internationally, including currency risks, (ix) environmental uncertainties, including risks of natural disasters, and (x) those additional factors discussed under Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016. We undertake no duty to update any forward-looking statements appearing in this report except as may be required by law.

 

Prologis, Inc. is a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust (a “REIT”) and is the sole general partner of Prologis, L.P. We operate Prologis, Inc. and Prologs L.P. as one enterprise and, therefore, our discussion and analysis refers to Prologis, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, including Prologis, L.P., collectively.

 

MANAGEMENT’S OVERVIEW

 

We are the global leader in logistics real estate with a focus on high-barrier, high-growth markets. We own, manage and develop high-quality logistics facilities in the world’s most active centers of commerce. An investment in Prologis taps into key drivers of economic growth, including consumption, supply chain modernization, e-commerce and urbanization.

 

Customers turn to us because they know an efficient supply chain will make their businesses run better, and that a strategic relationship with Prologis will create a competitive advantage. We lease modern logistics facilities to a diverse base of approximately 5,200 customers. These facilities assist the efficient distribution of goods for the world’s best businesses and brands.

 

We invest in Class-A logistics facilities in the world’s primary population centers with high barriers to entry and supported by extensive transportation infrastructure (major airports, seaports, rail systems and highway systems). We believe our portfolio is the highest-quality logistics property portfolio in the industry because it is focused in those key markets. Our local teams actively manage the portfolio, which encompasses leasing and property management, new capital deployment activities and an opportunistic disposition program. The majority of our consolidated properties are in the United States (or “U.S.”); while our properties outside the U.S. are generally held in co-investment ventures, which reduces our exposure to movements in foreign currency. Therefore, we are principally an owner-operator in the U.S. and a manager-developer outside the U.S.

 

We manage our business on an owned and managed basis, including properties wholly owned by us or owned by one of our co-investment ventures, which allows us to make decisions based on the property operations versus our ownership. We believe the operating fundamentals of our owned and managed portfolio are consistent with those of our consolidated portfolio, and therefore we generally look at operating metrics on an owned and managed basis.

 

At March 31, 2017, we owned or had investments in, on a wholly owned basis or through co-investment ventures, properties and development projects, once stabilized, totaling $53.2 billion in gross total investment across 678 million square feet (63 million square meters) in 19 countries spanning 4 continents. Our investment was $31.8 billion, which consisted of our wholly-owned properties and our pro rata (or ownership) share of the properties owned by our co-investment ventures.

 

28

 


 

Our business comprises two operating segments: Real Estate Operations and Strategic Capital. See below for information on our segments for the three months ended March 31, 2017:

 

REAL ESTATE –

RENTAL OPERATIONS

Grow revenues, net operating income (“NOI”) and cash flows by maintaining high occupancy rates and increasing rents

REAL ESTATE –

DEVELOPMENT

Contributes significant earnings growth as projects lease up and generate income

STRATEGIC CAPITAL

 

Access third-party capital to grow our business and earn recurring fees and promotes through long-term co-investment ventures

3.0% increase in consolidated revenues and 3.2% increase in NOI from the same period in 2016

96.0% average occupancy in our consolidated portfolio

24.3% estimated weighted average margins on $479 million total estimated investment of stabilized development projects in our owned and managed portfolio

$116 million of value created by development stabilizations (of which $89 million is our share)

$37.8 billion in third-party assets under management

11.8% increase in consolidated Strategic Capital revenues from the same period in 2016

 

Real Estate Operations

 

Rental Operations. Rental operations comprise the largest component of our operating segments and contributes approximately 90% of our consolidated revenues, earnings and funds from operations (see below for more information on funds from operations, a non-GAAP measure). We collect rent from our customers through operating leases, including reimbursements for the majority of our property operating costs. We expect to generate long-term internal growth by increasing rents, maintaining high occupancy rates and controlling expenses. We believe our active portfolio management, coupled with the skills of our property, leasing, maintenance, capital, energy and risk management teams, will allow us to maximize rental revenues across our portfolio. In the first three months of 2017, over 90% of our consolidated revenues and NOI in this segment were generated in the U.S. NOI from this segment is calculated directly from our financial statements as rental revenues, rental recoveries and development management and other revenues less rental expenses and other expenses.

 

Development. We utilize (i) our land bank, (ii) the development expertise of our local teams, (iii) our customer relationships and (iv) our in-depth local knowledge in connection with our development value-creation activities. Successful development and redevelopment efforts increase both the rental revenues and the net asset value of our Real Estate Operations segment. We measure the value we created based on the increase in estimated fair value of a stabilized development property, as compared to the costs incurred. Generally, we develop properties in the U.S. for long-term hold and outside the U.S. for contribution to our co-investment ventures. Occasionally, we develop for sale to third parties.

 

Strategic Capital

 

Real estate is a capital-intensive business that requires growth capital. Our strategic capital business gives us access to third-party capital, both private and public, allowing us to diversify our sources of capital and have a broader range of options to fund our growth. We co-invest with some of the world’s largest institutional partners to grow our business and provide incremental revenues. We also access alternative sources of equity through two publicly traded vehicles: Nippon Prologis REIT, Inc. in Japan and FIBRA Prologis in Mexico. We tailor logistics portfolios to meet our partners’ specific needs, with a focus on long-term ventures and open-ended funds. We hold significant ownership interests in these ventures, aligning our interests with those of our partners.

 

We generate strategic capital revenues from our unconsolidated ventures principally through asset management and property management services, and we earn additional revenues by providing leasing, acquisition, construction, development, financing and disposition services. Depending on the structure of the venture and the returns provided to our partners, we also earn revenues through incentive fees (“promotes”) periodically during the life of a venture or upon liquidation. Approximately 40% of promote revenues are paid to our employees as a combination of cash and stock awards pursuant to the terms of the Prologis Promote Plan and expensed through Strategic Capital Expenses. This segment contributes approximately 10% of our consolidated revenues, earnings and funds from operations. We plan to profitably grow this business through increasing our assets under management in our existing ventures. During the first quarter, we formed a new co-investment venture that will acquire land, develop buildings and own and hold logistics real estate assets in the U.K. Approximately 80% of the consolidated revenues and over 90% of the consolidated NOI in this segment were

29

 


 

generated outside the U.S. NOI in this segment is calculated directly from our financial statements as strategic capital revenues less strategic capital expenses and does not include property related NOI.

 

Growth Strategies

 

We believe the quality and scale of our global operating portfolio, the expertise of our team and the strength of our balance sheet give us unique competitive advantages. Our plan to grow revenues, earnings, NOI, cash flows and funds from operations is based on the following:

 

Rent Growth. We expect market rents to continue to grow over the next few years, albeit at a more modest pace, driven by demand for the location and quality of our properties. Because of the strong market rent growth in the last several years, even if market rents remain flat, our in-place leases have considerable room to rise back to market levels. We estimate that on an aggregate basis our leases are more than 10% below market, which when the lease is renewed, translates into increased future earnings, NOI and cash flow, both on a consolidated basis and through the amounts we recognize from our unconsolidated co-investment ventures based on our ownership. This is reflected in the positive rent change on rollovers (when comparing the net effective rent of the new lease to the prior lease for the same space) on our owned and managed operating portfolio. We have experienced positive rent change on rollover for every quarter since the beginning of 2013 and we expect this to continue for several more years.

 

Value Creation from Development. We believe a successful development and redevelopment program involves maintaining control of well-positioned land. On the basis of our current estimates, our owned and managed land bank has the potential to support the development of $8.3 billion of total expected investment (“TEI”) of logistics space. We believe the carrying value of our land bank is below its current fair value, and we expect to realize this value going forward primarily through development. During the first quarter of 2017, in our owned and managed portfolio, we stabilized development projects with a TEI of $479 million. Post stabilization, we estimate the value of these buildings to be 24.3% above their book value or the cost to develop (defined as estimated margin and calculated using estimated yield and capitalization rates from our underwriting models). In addition, these properties will generate NOI as they are leased up and become occupied.

 

Economies of Scale from Growth in Assets Under Management. Over the last several years, we have invested in a variety of technologies that have allowed us to achieve efficiencies and increase our investments in real estate with minimal increases to general and administrative (“G&A”) expenses. We have increased our owned and managed real estate assets by 86 million square feet (or approximately 16%) over the last two years primarily through acquisitions and integrated the assets with only minimal increases in overhead related to property management and leasing functions. We will continue to leverage these technologies in order to further streamline our operations and reduce our costs as a percentage of assets under management, along with advanced data analytics to enhance decision making.

 

Summary of 2017

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, operating fundamentals remained strong for our owned and managed portfolio and we ended the quarter with occupancy of 96.6%. See below for details of the operating and development activity of our Owned and Managed Portfolio. During 2017, we completed the following significant activities as further described in the footnotes to the Consolidated Financial Statements:

 

We generated net proceeds of $557 million and recorded net gains of $97 million from the contribution and disposition of real estate assets, primarily from property contributions in Europe.

 

In January, we sold our investment in Europe Logistics Venture 1 (“ELV”) to our fund partner for $84 million and ELV contributed its properties to Prologis Targeted Europe Logistics Fund (“PTELF”) in exchange for equity interests. 

 

In February, we formed the Prologis United Kingdom Logistics Venture (“UKLV”), an unconsolidated co-investment venture in which we have a 15.0% ownership interest. We contributed a portfolio of 4 million square feet of stabilized properties, properties under development and land for approximately £203 million ($252 million). We expect to continue to contribute properties and land into UKLV.

 

In February, we amended our Japanese yen revolver and increased the total borrowing capacity to ¥50.0 billion ($447 million at March 31, 2017).

 

In March, we acquired our partner’s interest in Prologis North American Industrial Fund (“NAIF”), a consolidated co-investment venture, for $710 million and now own 100% of the venture.

 

In March, we purchased our venture partner’s interest in the Prologis Brazil Logistics Partners Fund I (“Brazil Fund”) for $80 million and now own 100% of the venture. The Brazil Fund continues to hold a 50.0% ownership interest in several entities that we account for on the equity method.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2017 AND 2016

 

We evaluate our business operations based on the NOI of our two business reporting segments, Real Estate Operations and Strategic Capital. NOI by segment is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated using revenues and expenses directly from our financial statements. We consider NOI by segment to be an appropriate supplemental measure of our performance because it helps both management and investors to understand the core operations of our business.

 

Below is a reconciliation of our NOI by segment to Operating Income per the Consolidated Financial Statements for the three months ended March 31 (in millions). Each segment’s NOI is reconciled to a line item in the Consolidated Financial Statements in the respective segment discussion below.

Real Estate Operations

 

This operating segment principally includes rental revenues, rental recoveries and rental expenses recognized from our consolidated properties. We allocate the costs of our property management functions to the Real Estate Operations segment through Rental Expenses and to the Strategic Capital segment through Strategic Capital Expenses based on the size of the relative portfolios as compared to our total owned and managed portfolio. The operating fundamentals in the markets in which we operate continue to improve, which has positively affected both the rental rates and occupancy and also has fueled development activity.

Rent rate growth is a combination of the turnover (or rollover) of existing leases and increases in rental rates from contractual rent increases on existing leases. If a lease has a contractual rent increase that is not known at the time the lease is signed, such as the consumer price index or a similar metric, the rent increase is not included in rent leveling and therefore, would impact the rental revenues we recognize. We have experienced positive rent change on rollover for every quarter since the beginning of 2013 that has resulted in higher average rental rates in our portfolio and increased rental revenues and NOI as those leases commenced.

Below are the key operating metrics of our consolidated operating portfolio:

 

  

 

Strategic Capital

 

This operating segment includes revenues from asset management and other fees as well as promotes earned for services performed for our unconsolidated co-investment ventures. Revenues associated with the Strategic Capital segment fluctuate because of the size of co-investment ventures under management, the transactional activity in the ventures and the timing of promotes. These revenues are reduced generally by the direct costs associated with the asset management and property-level management for the properties owned by these ventures. We allocate the costs of our property management functions to the Strategic Capital segment through Strategic Capital Expenses and to the Real Estate Operations segment through Rental Expenses based on the size of the relative portfolios as compared to our total owned and managed portfolio.

As discussed above, ELV contributed its properties to PTELF in January 2017 and we formed the co-investment venture UKLV in February 2017.

 

See Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information about the contribution of the ELV properties to PTELF and the formation of UKLV, along with our other unconsolidated co-investment ventures.

 

G&A Expenses

 

G&A expenses increased $3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to the same time period in 2016, primarily due to additional compensation expense based on the company’s performance.

 

We capitalize certain costs directly related to our development and leasing activities. Capitalized G&A expenses include salaries and related costs, as well as certain other G&A costs.

Our Owned and Managed Portfolio

 

We manage our business on an owned and managed basis, which includes properties wholly owned by us or owned by one of our co-investment ventures. We review our operating fundamentals on an owned and managed basis. We believe reviewing these fundamentals this way allows management to understand the entire impact to the financial statements, as it will affect both the Real Estate Operations and Strategic Capital segments, as well as the net earnings we recognize from our unconsolidated co-investment ventures based on our ownership share. We do not control the unconsolidated co-investment ventures for purposes of GAAP and the presentation of the ventures’ operating information does not represent a legal claim to such items.

 

Our owned and managed portfolio includes operating properties and does not include properties under development or held for sale to third parties (square feet in millions):

Our operating portfolio excludes value-added properties, which are defined as properties that are expected to be repurposed or redeveloped to a higher and better use and recently acquired properties that present opportunities to create greater value. We had six consolidated value-added properties totaling one million square feet and eight unconsolidated value-added properties totaling two million square feet at March 31, 2017.

 

Operating Activity

 

Below is information summarizing the leasing activity of our owned and managed operating portfolio:

 

  

 

(1)

We retained at least 74% of our customers, based on the total square feet of leases signed, for each quarter in 2016 and 2017.

Same Store Analysis

 

We evaluate the operating performance of the operating properties we own and manage using a “same store” analysis because the population of properties in this analysis is consistent from period to period, which eliminates the effects of changes in the composition of the portfolio. We have defined the same store portfolio, for the three months ended March 31, 2017, as those owned and managed properties that were in operation at January 1, 2016 and have been in operation throughout the same three-month periods in both 2017 and 2016 (including development properties that have been completed and available for lease). We have removed all properties that were disposed of to a third party or were classified as held for sale to a third party from the population for both periods. We believe the factors that affect rental revenues, rental expenses and NOI in the same store portfolio are generally the same as for the total operating portfolio. To derive an appropriate measure of period-to-period operating performance, we remove the effects of foreign currency

35

 


 

exchange rate movements by using the recent period end exchange rate to translate from local currency into the U.S. dollar, for both periods.

 

Same store is a commonly used measure in the real estate industry. Our same store measures are non-GAAP financial measures that are calculated beginning with rental revenues, rental recoveries and rental expenses from the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. As our same store measures are non-GAAP financial measures, they have certain limitations as analytical tools and may vary among real estate companies. As a result, we provide a reconciliation from our financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP to same store property NOI with explanations of how these metrics are calculated.

 

The following is a reconciliation of our consolidated rental revenues, rental recoveries, rental expenses and property NOI, as included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, to the respective amounts in our same store portfolio analysis for the three months ended March 31 (dollars in millions):

We include 100% of the same store NOI from the properties in our same store portfolio. During the periods presented, certain properties owned by us were contributed to a co-investment venture and are included in the same store portfolio. Neither our consolidated results nor those of the co-investment ventures, when viewed individually, would be comparable on a same store basis because of the changes in composition of the respective portfolios from period to period (e.g. the results of a contributed property are included in our consolidated results through the contribution date and in the results of the unconsolidated entities subsequent to the contribution date).

 

(2)

We exclude the net termination and renegotiation fees from our same store rental revenues to allow us to evaluate the growth or decline in each property’s rental revenues without regard to one-time items that are not indicative of the property’s recurring operating performance. Net termination and renegotiation fees represent the gross fee negotiated to allow a customer to terminate or renegotiate their lease, offset by the write-off of the asset recorded due to the adjustment to straight-line rents over the lease term. The adjustments to remove these items are included in “effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and other” in this table.

 

36

 


 

(3)

Rental expenses include the direct operating expenses of the property such as property taxes, insurance and utilities. In addition, we include an allocation of the property management expenses for our direct-owned properties based on the property management services provided to each property (generally, based on a percentage of revenues). On consolidation, these amounts are eliminated and the actual costs of providing property management services are recognized as part of our consolidated rental expenses. These expenses fluctuate based on the level of properties included in the same store portfolio and any adjustment is included as “effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and other” in this table.

 

Other Components of Income (Expense)

 

Earnings from Unconsolidated Entities, Net

 

We recognized net earnings from unconsolidated entities, which are accounted for using the equity method of $49 million and $58 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, and 2016, respectively. The earnings we recognize can be impacted by: (i) variances in revenues and expenses of each venture; (ii) the size and occupancy rate of the portfolio of properties owned by each venture; (iii) gains or losses from the dispositions of properties; (iv) our ownership interest in each venture; and (v) fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates used to translate our share of net earnings to U.S. dollars.

 

See the discussion of our co-investment ventures above in the Strategic Capital segment discussion and in Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further breakdown of our share of net earnings recognized.

Gross interest expense decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016, due to secured debt pay downs and less borrowings on our credit facilities. Our overall debt increased by $359 million from December 31, 2016, to March 31, 2017, primarily from increased borrowings on our tern loans related to the buyout of our partner in NAIF.

Income Tax Expense

 

We recognize current income tax expense for income taxes incurred by our taxable REIT subsidiaries, state and local income taxes and taxes incurred in the foreign jurisdictions in which we operate. Our current income tax expense fluctuates from period to period based predominantly from the dispositions of real estate. Deferred income tax expense (benefit) is generally a function of the period’s temporary differences and the utilization of net operating losses generated in prior years that had been previously recognized as deferred income tax assets in taxable subsidiaries operating in the U.S. or in foreign jurisdictions.

Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we recorded net gains in the Statements of Comprehensive Income related to foreign currency translations of our foreign subsidiaries into U.S. dollars upon consolidation. These gains were principally due to the strengthening of all currencies to the U.S. dollar. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, we recorded net gains, principally due to the strengthening of the euro and Japanese yen offset by the weakening of the British pound sterling and Brazilian real to the U.S. dollar.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we recorded unrealized gains and during the three months ended March 31, 2016, we recorded unrealized losses in the Statements of Comprehensive Income, related to the change in fair value of our cash flow hedges and our share of derivatives in our unconsolidated co-investment ventures.

 

See Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information about our derivative transactions.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

Overview

 

We consider our ability to generate cash from operating activities, distributions from our co-investment ventures, dispositions of properties and from available financing sources to be adequate to meet our anticipated future development, acquisition, operating, debt service, dividend and distribution requirements.

 

Near-Term Principal Cash Sources and Uses

 

In addition to dividends to the common and preferred stockholders of Prologis, Inc. and distributions to the holders of limited partnership units of Prologis, L.P. and our partner in our consolidated co-investment venture, we expect our primary cash needs will consist of the following:

 

completion of the development and leasing of the properties in our consolidated development portfolio (at March 31, 2017, 80 properties in our development portfolio were 63.3% leased with a current investment of $1.5 billion and a TEI of $2.3 billion when completed and leased, leaving $0.8 billion remaining to be spent);

 

development of new properties for long-term investment, including the acquisition of land in certain markets;

 

capital expenditures and leasing costs on properties in our operating portfolio;

 

repayment of debt and scheduled principal payments of $803 million in 2017;

 

additional investments in current unconsolidated entities or new investments in future unconsolidated co-investment ventures;

 

acquisition of operating properties or portfolios of operating properties (depending on market and other conditions) for direct, long-term investment in our consolidated portfolio (this might include acquisitions from our co-investment ventures); and

 

repurchase of our outstanding debt or equity securities (depending on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors) through cash purchases, open-market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, tender offers or otherwise.

 

We expect to fund our cash needs principally from the following sources (subject to market conditions):

 

available unrestricted cash balances ($396 million at March 31, 2017);

 

property operations;

 

fees earned for services performed on behalf of the co-investment ventures, including promotes;

 

distributions received from the co-investment ventures;

 

proceeds from the disposition of properties, land parcels or other investments to third parties;

 

proceeds from the contributions of properties to current or future co-investment ventures;

 

proceeds from the sale of a portion of our investments in co-investment ventures;

39

In February 2017, we renewed and amended our Japanese yen revolver (the “Revolver”) and increased our availability under the Revolver to ¥50.0 billion ($447 million at March 31, 2017).

 

In March 2017, we entered into an unsecured senior term loan agreement (the “2017 Yen Term Loan”) under which we can draw in Japanese yen, of which ¥7.2 billion ($64 million at March 31, 2017) matures in March 2027 and bears interest at 0.92% and ¥4.8 billion ($43 million at March 31, 2017) matures in March 2028 and bears interest of 1.01%. In the first quarter of 2017, we borrowed ¥12.0 billion ($107 million), causing the 2017 Yen Term Loan to be fully drawn at March 31, 2017.

 

At March 31, 2017, we had credit facilities with an aggregate borrowing capacity of $3.4 billion, all of which was available for borrowing.

 

At March 31, 2017, we were in compliance with all of our debt covenants. These covenants include customary financial covenants for total debt, encumbered debt and fixed charge coverage ratios.

 

See Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion on our debt.

 

Equity Commitments Related to Certain Co-Investment Ventures

 

Certain co-investment ventures have equity commitments from us and our venture partners. Our venture partners fulfill their equity commitment with cash. We may fulfill our equity commitment through contributions of properties or cash. For more information on equity commitments for our unconsolidated co-investment ventures, see Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Cash Provided by Operating Activities

 

Cash provided by operating activities, exclusive of changes in receivables and payables, is impacted by the following significant activity:

 

Real estate operations. We receive the majority of our operating cash through net revenues of our Real Estate Operations segment. See our Results of Operations section above for further explanation of our Real Estate Operations segment. The revenues from this segment include noncash adjustments for straight-lined rent and amortization of above and below market leases of $25 million and $20 million for 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

Strategic capital. We also generate operating cash through our Strategic Capital segment by providing management services to our unconsolidated co-investment ventures, including promotes. See our Strategic Capital Results of Operations section above for the key drivers of our strategic capital revenues and expenses. Included in the cash provided by operating activities for 2016 is $25 million of cash received, which represented the third-parties’ share of promotes earned in 2015.

 

G&A expenses. We incurred $54 million and $51 million of G&A costs in 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

40

 


 

Distributions from unconsolidated entities. We recognized $77 million and $80 million of distributions from our unconsolidated entities in Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities in 2017 and 2016, respectively. Included in 2016 are distributions of $27 million that represented our share of promotes earned in 2015. In the third quarter of 2016, we adopted an accounting standard update that clarifies the classification methodology within the statement of cash flows for distributions received from equity method investments. As a result, for the three months ended March 31, 2016, we reclassified $10 million of distributions from our unconsolidated entities into operating activities that were previously reported as investing activities.

 

Equity-based compensation awards. We record equity-based compensation expenses in Rental Expenses in the Real Estate Operations segment, Strategic Capital Expenses in the Strategic Capital segment and G&A expenses. The total amounts expensed were $18 million and $12 million in 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

Cash paid for interest and income taxes. As disclosed in Note 11, we paid combined amounts for interest and income taxes of $127 million and $117 million in 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

Cash Provided by Investing Activities

 

Real estate development. We invested $321 million and $344 million in 2017 and 2016, respectively, in real estate development and leasing costs for first generation leases. We had 54 properties under development and 26 properties that were completed but not stabilized at March 31, 2017, and we expect to continue to develop new properties as the opportunities arise.

 

Real estate acquisitions. In 2017, we acquired total real estate of $132 million, which included 192 acres of land and one operating property. In 2016, we acquired total real estate of $67 million, which included 99 acres of land and four operating properties.

 

Capital expenditures. We invested $51 million and $52 million in our operating properties during 2017 and 2016, respectively; which included recurring capital expenditures, tenant improvements and leasing commissions on existing operating properties that were previously leased.

 

Proceeds from contributions and dispositions. We generated cash from contributions and dispositions of real estate properties of $542 million and $603 million during 2017 and 2016, respectively. See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more detail about our contributions and dispositions.

 

Investments in and advances to. We invest cash in our unconsolidated co-investment ventures and other ventures, which represents our proportionate share. The ventures primarily use the funds for the acquisition of operating properties, development and repayment of debt. The following table summarizes our investments in our unconsolidated co-investment ventures for the three months ended March 31 (in millions):

Return of investment. We received distributions from unconsolidated co-investment ventures and other ventures as a return of investment of $109 million and $111 million during 2017 and 2016, respectively. Included in this amount for 2017 is $84 million from the disposition of our investment in ELV and $17 million from property dispositions within our unconsolidated co-investment ventures. Included in this amount for 2016 is $79 million from the disposition of our investment in a joint venture, and the remaining

41

 


 

amount was from property dispositions within our unconsolidated entities. As discussed above, we adopted an accounting standard update in the third quarter of 2016 that clarifies the classification methodology within the statement of cash flows for distributions received from equity method investments and as a result, we reclassified $10 million of distributions in 2016 from our unconsolidated entities that were previously reported as investing activities into operating activities.

 

Proceeds from repayment of notes receivable backed by real estate. In 2017 and 2016, we received $15 million and $198 million, respectively, for the payment of notes receivable received in connection with dispositions of real estate to third parties.

 

Cash Used in Financing Activities

 

Dividends paid on common and preferred stock. We paid dividends of $235 million and $223 million to our common and preferred stockholders during 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

Noncontrolling interests distributions. In 2017 and 2016, we distributed $36 million and $79 million to various noncontrolling interests, respectively. Distributions in 2016 included $33 million related to proceeds from dispositions of real estate, primarily to our partner in USLV. Included in these amounts in both 2017 and 2016 were $9 million of distributions to common limited partnership unitholders of Prologis, L.P.

 

Purchase of noncontrolling interests. In 2017, we paid $710 million to acquire our partner’s interest in NAIF and $80 million to acquire our partner’s interest in the Brazil Fund.

 

Tax paid for shares withheld. In the third quarter of 2016, we adopted an accounting standard update that clarifies the classification methodology within the statement of cash flows for taxes paid to a tax authority by us when we withhold shares to cover employee withholding tax payments for certain stock compensation plans. As a result of the adoption, in 2016 we reclassified payments of $7 million from operating activities to financing activities.

 

Net borrowings on credit facilities. We made net payments on credit facilities of $34 million in 2017, and we received net proceeds of $303 million on our credit facilities during 2016.

 

Repurchase and payments of debt. During 2017, we made payments of $198 million on our outstanding term loans and $4 million on regularly scheduled debt principal payments and payments at maturity. During 2016, we made payments of $600 million on our outstanding term loans, $5 million on regularly scheduled debt principal payments and payments at maturity and repurchased and extinguished secured mortgage debt of $204 million.

 

Proceeds from issuance of debt. In 2017, we issued $377 million of term loans and $108 million of secured mortgage debt and used the net proceeds for general corporate purposes. In 2016, we issued $299 million of term loans and used the net proceeds for general corporate purposes. See Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more detail on debt.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

Unconsolidated Co-Investment Venture Debt

 

We had investments in and advances to unconsolidated co-investment ventures, at March 31, 2017, of $4.1 billion. These ventures had total third-party debt of $6.7 billion at March 31, 2017.

 

At March 31, 2017, we did not guarantee any third-party debt of the co-investment ventures. In our role as the manager or sponsor, we work with the co-investment ventures to refinance their maturing debt. There can be no assurance that the co-investment ventures will be able to refinance any maturing indebtedness on terms as favorable as the maturing debt, or at all. If the ventures are unable to refinance the maturing indebtedness with newly issued debt, they may be able to obtain funds by voluntary capital contributions from us and our partners or by selling assets. Certain of our ventures also have credit facilities, or unencumbered properties, both of which may be used to obtain funds.

 

Contractual Obligations

 

Distribution and Dividend Requirements

 

Our dividend policy on our common stock is to distribute a percentage of our cash flow to ensure that we will meet the dividend requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, relative to maintaining our REIT status, while still allowing us to retain cash to meet other needs such as capital improvements and other investment activities.

 

We paid a cash dividend of $0.44 per common share for the first quarter of 2017. Our future common stock dividends, if and as declared, may vary and will be determined by the board of directors (the “Board”) upon the circumstances prevailing at the time, including our financial condition, operating results and REIT distribution requirements, and may be adjusted at the discretion of the Board during the year.

 

42

 


 

At March 31, 2017, we had one series of preferred stock outstanding, the series Q. The annual dividend rate is 8.54% per share and dividends are payable quarterly in arrears.

 

Pursuant to the terms of our preferred stock, we are restricted from declaring or paying any dividend with respect to our common stock unless and until all cumulative dividends with respect to the preferred stock have been paid and sufficient funds have been set aside for dividends that have been declared for the relevant dividend period with respect to the preferred stock.

 

Other Commitments

 

On a continuing basis, we are engaged in various stages of negotiations for the acquisition or disposition of individual properties or portfolios of properties.

 

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS ATTRIBUTABLE TO COMMON STOCKHOLDERS/UNITHOLDERS (“FFO”)

 

FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure that is commonly used in the real estate industry. The most directly comparable GAAP measure to FFO is net earnings.

 

The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) defines FFO as earnings computed under GAAP to exclude historical cost depreciation and gains and losses from the sales, along with impairment charges, of previously depreciated properties. We also exclude the gains on revaluation of equity investments upon acquisition of a controlling interest and the gain recognized from a partial sale of our investment. We exclude similar adjustments from our unconsolidated entities and the third parties’ share of our consolidated ventures.

 

Our FFO Measures

 

Our FFO measures begin with NAREIT’s definition and we make certain adjustments to reflect our business and the way that management plans and executes our business strategy. While not infrequent or unusual, the additional items we adjust for in calculating FFO, as modified by Prologis, and Core FFO, both as defined below, are subject to significant fluctuations from period to period. Although these items may have a material impact on our operations and are reflected in our financial statements, the removal of the effects of these items allows us to better understand the core operating performance of our properties over the long term. These items have both positive and negative short-term effects on our results of operations in inconsistent and unpredictable directions that are not relevant to our long-term outlook.

 

We calculate our FFO measures, as defined below, based on our proportionate ownership share of both our unconsolidated and consolidated ventures. We reflect our share of our FFO measures for unconsolidated ventures by applying our average ownership percentage for the period to the applicable reconciling items on an entity by entity basis. We reflect our share for consolidated ventures in which we do not own 100% of the equity by adjusting our FFO measures to remove the noncontrolling interests share of the applicable reconciling items based on our average ownership percentage for the applicable periods.

 

These FFO measures are used by management as supplemental financial measures of operating performance and we believe that it is important that stockholders, potential investors and financial analysts understand the measures management uses. We do not use our FFO measures as, nor should they be considered to be, alternatives to net earnings computed under GAAP, as indicators of our operating performance, as alternatives to cash from operating activities computed under GAAP or as indicators of our ability to fund our cash needs.

 

We analyze our operating performance primarily by the rental revenues of our real estate and the revenues from our strategic capital business, net of operating, administrative and financing expenses. This income stream is not directly impacted by fluctuations in the market value of our investments in real estate or debt securities.

 

FFO, as modified by Prologis attributable to common stockholders and unitholders (“FFO, as modified by Prologis”)

 

To arrive at FFO, as modified by Prologis, we adjust the NAREIT defined FFO measure to exclude the impact of foreign currency related items and deferred tax, specifically:

 

deferred income tax benefits and deferred income tax expenses recognized by our subsidiaries;

 

current income tax expense related to acquired tax liabilities that were recorded as deferred tax liabilities in an acquisition, to the extent the expense is offset with a deferred income tax benefit in earnings that is excluded from our defined FFO measure;

 

43

 


 

unhedged foreign currency exchange gains and losses resulting from debt transactions between us and our foreign consolidated subsidiaries and our foreign unconsolidated entities;

 

foreign currency exchange gains and losses from the remeasurement (based on current foreign currency exchange rates) of certain third party debt of our foreign consolidated and unconsolidated entities; and

 

mark-to-market adjustments associated with derivative financial instruments.

 

We use FFO, as modified by Prologis, so that management, analysts and investors are able to evaluate our performance against other REITs that do not have similar operations or operations in jurisdictions outside the U.S.

 

Core FFO attributable to common stockholders and unitholders (“Core FFO”)

 

In addition to FFO, as modified by Prologis, we also use Core FFO. To arrive at Core FFO, we adjust FFO, as modified by Prologis, to exclude the following recurring and nonrecurring items that we recognized directly in FFO, as modified by Prologis:

 

gains or losses from the disposition of land and development properties that were developed with the intent to contribute or sell;

 

income tax expense related to the sale of investments in real estate and third-party acquisition costs related to the acquisition of real estate;

 

impairment charges recognized related to our investments in real estate generally as a result of our change in intent to contribute or sell these properties;

 

gains or losses from the early extinguishment of debt and redemption and repurchase of preferred stock; and

 

expenses related to natural disasters.

 

We use Core FFO, including by segment and region, to: (i) assess our operating performance as compared to other real estate companies; (ii) evaluate our performance and the performance of our properties in comparison with expected results and results of previous periods; (iii) evaluate the performance of our management; (iv) budget and forecast future results to assist in the allocation of resources; (v) provide guidance to the financial markets to understand our expected operating performance; and (v) evaluate how a specific potential investment will impact our future results.

 

Limitations on the use of our FFO measures

 

While we believe our modified FFO measures are important supplemental measures, neither NAREIT’s nor our measures of FFO should be used alone because they exclude significant economic components of net earnings computed under GAAP and are, therefore, limited as an analytical tool. Accordingly, these are only a few of the many measures we use when analyzing our business. Some of the limitations are:

 

The current income tax expenses and acquisition costs that are excluded from our modified FFO measures represent the taxes and transaction costs that are payable.

 

Depreciation and amortization of real estate assets are economic costs that are excluded from FFO. FFO is limited, as it does not reflect the cash requirements that may be necessary for future replacements of the real estate assets. Furthermore, the amortization of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of logistics facilities are not reflected in FFO.

 

Gains or losses from non-development property and dispositions or impairment charges related to expected dispositions represent changes in value of the properties. By excluding these gains and losses, FFO does not capture realized changes in the value of disposed properties arising from changes in market conditions.

 

The deferred income tax benefits and expenses that are excluded from our modified FFO measures result from the creation of a deferred income tax asset or liability that may have to be settled at some future point. Our modified FFO measures do not currently reflect any income or expense that may result from such settlement.

 

The foreign currency exchange gains and losses that are excluded from our modified FFO measures are generally recognized based on movements in foreign currency exchange rates through a specific point in time. The ultimate settlement of our foreign currency-denominated net assets is indefinite as to timing and amount. Our FFO measures are limited in that they do not reflect the current period changes in these net assets that result from periodic foreign currency exchange rate movements.

 

The gains and losses on extinguishment of debt that we exclude from our Core FFO, may provide a benefit or cost to us as we may be settling our debt at less or more than our future obligation.

 

44

 


 

The natural disaster expenses that we exclude from Core FFO are costs that we have incurred.

 

We compensate for these limitations by using our FFO measures only in conjunction with net earnings computed under GAAP when making our decisions. This information should be read with our complete consolidated financial statements prepared under GAAP. To assist investors in compensating for these limitations, we reconcile our modified FFO measures to our net earnings computed under GAAP for three months ended March 31 as follows (in millions).

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

We are exposed to the impact of foreign-exchange related variability and earnings volatility on our foreign investments and interest rate changes. See our risk factors in Item 1A. Risk Factors, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016. See also Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 for more information about our derivative financial instruments.

 

We monitor our market risk exposures using a sensitivity analysis. Our sensitivity analysis estimates the exposure to market risk sensitive instruments assuming a hypothetical 10% adverse change in exchange or interest rates at March 31, 2017. The results of the sensitivity analysis are summarized in the following sections. The sensitivity analysis is of limited predictive value. As a result, revenues and expenses, as well as our ultimate realized gains or losses with respect to interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations will depend on the exposures that arise during a future period, hedging strategies at the time and the prevailing interest and foreign currency exchange rates.

 

Foreign Currency Risk

 

We are exposed to foreign exchange-related variability of investments and earnings from our foreign investments. Foreign currency market risk is the possibility that our financial results or financial position could be better or worse than planned because of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. At March 31, 2017, we had net equity of approximately $1.4 billion, or 6.9% of total net equity, denominated in a currency other than the U.S. dollar, after consideration of our derivative and nonderivative financial instruments. Based on our sensitivity analysis, a 10% adverse change in exchange rates would cause a reduction of $139 million to our net equity.

 

At March 31, 2017, we had foreign currency forward contracts, which were designated and qualify as net investment hedges, with an aggregate notional amount of $272 million to hedge a portion of our investments in Canada and the U.K. On the basis of our sensitivity analysis, a weakening of the U.S. dollar against the British pound sterling and Canadian dollar by 10% would result in a $27 million negative change in our cash flows on settlement. In addition, we also have British pound sterling, Canadian dollar, euro and Japanese yen forward and option contracts, which were not designated as hedges, and have an aggregate notional amount of $518 million to mitigate risk associated with the translation of the projected financial results of our subsidiaries in Canada, Europe and Japan. A

45

 


 

weakening of the U.S. dollar against these currencies by 10% would result in a $52 million negative change in our net income and cash flows on settlement.

 

Interest Rate Risk

 

We also are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes on future earnings and cash flows. At March 31, 2017, we had $2.0 billion of variable rate debt outstanding, of which $1.7 billion was outstanding on our term loans and $287 million was outstanding on secured mortgage debt. At March 31, 2017, we had interest rate swap agreements to fix the interest rate on $279 million (CAD $372 million) of our Canadian term loan. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we had weighted average daily outstanding borrowings of $46 million on our variable rate credit facilities. On the basis of our sensitivity analysis, a 10% adverse change in interest rates based on our average outstanding variable rate debt balances not subject to interest rate swap agreements during the period would result in additional annual interest expense of $1 million, which equates to a change in interest rates of 8 basis points.

 

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Controls and Procedures (The Parent)

 

The Parent carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-14(c)) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) at March 31, 2017. On the basis of this evaluation, the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in reports that are filed or submitted under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and forms.

 

No changes in the internal controls over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal quarter have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.

 

Controls and Procedures (The Operating Partnership)

 

The Operating Partnership carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-14(c)) under the Exchange Act at March 31, 2017. On the basis of this evaluation, the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in reports that are filed or submitted under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms.

 

No changes in the internal controls over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal quarter have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.

 

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings

 

Prologis and our unconsolidated investees are party to a variety of legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. With respect to any such matters to which we are currently a party, the ultimate disposition of any such matters will not result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial position or results of operations.

 

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors

 

At March 31, 2017, no material changes had occurred in our risk factors as discussed in Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.

 

ITEM 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

 

During the quarter ended March 31, 2017, we issued an aggregate of 0.6 million shares of common stock of the Parent upon redemption of common units of the Operating Partnership. The shares of common stock were issued in reliance on the exemption from registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, afforded by Section 4(a)(2) thereof.
