W. P. Carey 9/30/2014 10-Q – 7


W. P. CAREY INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Note 1. Business and Organization
 
W. P. Carey Inc., or W. P. Carey, is, together with its consolidated subsidiaries and predecessors, a real estate investment trust, or REIT, that provides long-term financing via sale-leaseback and build-to-suit transactions for companies worldwide and manages a global investment portfolio. We invest primarily in commercial properties domestically and internationally. We earn revenue principally by leasing the properties we own to single corporate tenants, primarily on a triple-net lease basis, which requires each tenant to pay substantially all of the costs associated with operating and maintaining the property. Through our taxable REIT subsidiaries, or TRSs, we also earn revenue as the advisor to publicly-owned, non-listed REITs under the Corporate Property Associates, or CPA®, brand name, which invest in similar properties. At September 30, 2014, we were the advisor to Corporate Property Associates 17 – Global Incorporated, or CPA®:17 – Global, and Corporate Property Associates 18 – Global Incorporated, or CPA®:18 – Global. We were also the advisor to Corporate Property Associates 16 – Global Incorporated, or CPA®:16 – Global, until its merger with us on January 31, 2014. We refer to CPA®:16 – Global, CPA®:17 – Global, and CPA®:18 – Global as the CPA® REITs. We are also the advisor to Carey Watermark Investors Incorporated, or CWI, a publicly-owned, non-listed REIT that invests in lodging and lodging-related properties, which is referred to as, together with CPA® REITs, the Managed REITs.

Originally founded in 1973, we reorganized as a REIT in September 2012 in connection with our merger with Corporate Property Associates 15 Incorporated, or CPA®:15. We refer to that merger as the CPA®:15 Merger. Our shares of common stock are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “WPC.”

On January 31, 2014, CPA®:16 – Global merged with and into us based on a merger agreement, dated as of July 25, 2013, which we refer to as the CPA®:16 Merger (Note 3). In September 2014, we completed a public offering of 4,600,000 shares of our common stock, $0.001 par value per share, at a price of $64.00 per share (Note 13).

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under Section 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code. As a REIT, we are not generally subject to United States, or U.S., federal income taxation as long as we satisfy certain requirements, principally relating to the nature of our income and the level of our distributions, as well as other factors. We hold all of our real estate assets attributable to our Real Estate Ownership segment under the REIT structure, while the activities conducted by our Investment Management segment subsidiaries have been organized under TRSs.

Reportable Segments
 
Real Estate Ownership — We own and invest in commercial properties principally in the U.S., the European Union and Asia that are then leased to companies, primarily on a triple-net lease basis. We have also invested in several operating properties, such as lodging and self-storage properties. We earn lease revenues from our wholly-owned and co-owned real estate investments that we control. In addition, we generate equity income through co-owned real estate investments that we do not control and our investments in the shares of the Managed REITs (Note 7). Through our special member interests in the operating partnerships of the Managed REITs, we also participate in their cash flows (Note 4). At September 30, 2014, our owned portfolio was comprised of our full or partial ownership interests in 688 properties, substantially all of which were net leased to 215 tenants, with an occupancy rate of 98.1%, and totaled approximately 80.8 million square feet. Collectively, at September 30, 2014, CPA®:17 – Global and CPA®:18 – Global owned all or a portion of 384 properties, including certain properties in which we have an ownership interest. Substantially all of these properties, totaling approximately 40.9 million square feet, were net leased to 150 tenants, with an average occupancy rate of approximately 99.9%. CPA®:17 – Global, CPA®:18 – Global, and CWI also had interests in 105 operating properties for an aggregate of approximately 11.0 million square feet at September 30, 2014.

Investment Management — Through our TRSs, we structure and negotiate investments and debt placement transactions for the Managed REITs, for which we earn structuring revenue, and manage their portfolios of real estate investments, for which we earn asset-based management revenue. We earn disposition revenue when we negotiate and structure the sale of properties on behalf of the Managed REITs, and we may also earn incentive revenue and receive other compensation in connection with providing liquidity events for the Managed REITs’ stockholders. We are currently considering alternatives for expanding our investment management operations by raising funds in addition to the existing Managed REITs, although there can be no assurance that we will pursue any of these initiatives. These new funds could invest primarily in assets other than net-lease real estate and could include funds raised through publicly traded vehicles, either in the U.S. or internationally.



W. P. Carey 9/30/2014 10-Q – 8
 
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note 2. Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

Our interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not necessarily include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair statement of our consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S., or GAAP.

In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial information for the interim periods presented in this Report reflects all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. Our interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2013, which are included in the 2013 Annual Report, as certain disclosures that would substantially duplicate those contained in the audited consolidated financial statements have not been included in this Report. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of operating results for an entire year.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and the disclosure of contingent amounts in our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements included in this Report have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the disposition (or planned disposition) of certain properties as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

Basis of Consolidation

Our consolidated financial statements reflect all of our accounts, including those of our controlled subsidiaries and our tenancy-in-common interests as described below. The portion of equity in a consolidated subsidiary that is not attributable, directly or indirectly, to us is presented as noncontrolling interests. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

At September 30, 2014, we had six investments in tenancy-in-common interests in various domestic and international properties, five of which we consolidate because we own 100% of these investments after acquiring the remaining interests in these investments from CPA®:16 – Global in the CPA®:16 Merger, and account for the remaining jointly-owned investment using the equity method of accounting. Consolidation of the remaining investment is not required as such interest does not qualify as a VIE and does not meet the control requirement for consolidation. Accordingly, we account for this investment using the equity method of accounting. We use the equity method of accounting because the shared decision-making involved in a tenancy-in-common interest investment provides us with significant influence on the operating and financial decisions of these investments.

We apply accounting guidance for consolidation of VIEs to certain entities in which the equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. Fixed price purchase and renewal options within a lease as well as certain decision-making rights within a loan can cause us to consider an entity a VIE. In connection with the CPA®:16 Merger, we acquired 12 VIEs. We consider these entities VIEs because the leases have certain features such as fixed price purchase or renewal options.

Additionally, we own interests in single-tenant, net-leased properties leased to companies through noncontrolling interests in partnerships and limited liability companies that we do not control but over which we exercise significant influence. We account for these investments under the equity method of accounting. At times, the carrying value of our equity investments may fall below zero for certain investments. We intend to fund our share of the investments’ future operating deficits should the need arise. However, we have no legal obligation to pay for any of the liabilities of such investments nor do we have any legal obligation to fund operating deficits. At September 30, 2014, none of our equity investments had carrying values below zero.

In June 2014, we filed a registration statement with the SEC to sell up to $1.0 billion of common stock of Carey Watermark Investors 2 Incorporated, or CWI 2, in an initial public offering plus up to an additional $400.0 million of its common stock under a dividend reinvestment plan. As of the date of this Report, the registration statement has not been declared effective by the SEC and there can be no assurance as to whether or when such offering would be commenced. Through September 30,


W. P. Carey 9/30/2014 10-Q – 9
 
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

2014, the financial activity of CWI 2, which has no significant assets, liabilities, or operations, was included in our consolidated financial statements.

In September 2014, we filed registration statements with the SEC to sell up to 50,000,000 shares and 21,000,000 shares of beneficial interest of Carey Credit Income Fund 2015 A and Carey Credit Income Fund 2015 T, respectively, in initial public offerings. As of the date of this Report, the registration statements have not been declared effective by the SEC and there can be no assurance as to whether or when such offerings would be commenced. Through September 30, 2014, the financial activities of Carey Credit Income Fund 2015 A and Carey Credit Income Fund 2015 T, which have no significant assets, liabilities, or operations, were included in our consolidated financial statements.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Recent Accounting Requirements

The following Accounting Standards Updates, or ASUs, promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board are applicable to us:

ASU 2014-12, Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718). ASU 2014-12 provides guidance on share-based payment awards, in which a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite vesting period be treated as a performance condition. ASU 2014-12 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2015 and early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2014-12 on our consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model requiring a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount reflecting the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 does not apply to our lease revenues, but will apply to reimbursed tenant costs and revenues generated from our operating properties and our Investment Management business. Additionally, this guidance modifies disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. ASU 2014-09 is effective beginning in 2017, and early adoption is not permitted. In adopting ASU 2014-09, companies may use either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements and have not yet determined the method by which we will adopt the standard in 2017.

ASU 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360). ASU 2014-08 changes the requirements for reporting discontinued operations. A discontinued operation may include a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity, or a business. Under this new guidance, a disposal of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity is required to be reported in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a “strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results.” The new guidance also requires disclosures including pre-tax profit or loss and significant gains or losses arising from dispositions that represent an “individually significant component of an entity,” but do not meet the criteria to be reported as discontinued operations under ASU 2014-08. In the ordinary course of business we sell properties, which, under prior accounting guidance, we generally reported as discontinued operations; however, under ASU 2014-08, such property dispositions typically would not meet the criteria to be reported as discontinued operations. We elected to early adopt ASU 2014-08 prospectively for all dispositions after December 31, 2013. Consequently, individually significant properties that were sold or classified as held-for-sale during 2014 were not reclassified to discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements, but have been disclosed in Note 15 to the consolidated financial statements. By contrast, and as required by the new guidance, the results for the current and prior year period reflect as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements all dispositions and assets classified as held-for-sale through December 31, 2013 that were deemed under the prior accounting guidance to be discontinued operations, as well as those assets classified as held-for-sale as part of the CPA®:16 Merger. This ASU did not have a significant impact on our financial position or results of operations for any of the periods presented.

ASU 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit when a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. ASU 2013-11 requires an entity to present an unrecognized tax benefit relating to a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss or a tax credit carryforward as a reduction to a deferred tax asset, except in certain situations. To the extent the net operating loss carryforward, similar tax loss or tax credit carryforward is not available as of the reporting date under the governing tax law to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of the tax position, or the governing tax law does not require the entity to use and


W. P. Carey 9/30/2014 10-Q – 10
 
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

the entity does not intend to use the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented as a liability and should not net with a deferred tax asset. ASU 2013-11 became effective for us at the beginning of 2014. The adoption of ASU 2013-11 did not have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

Note 3. Merger with CPA®:16 – Global

On July 25, 2013, we and CPA®:16 – Global entered into a definitive agreement pursuant to which CPA®:16 – Global would merge with and into one of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, subject to the approval of our stockholders and the stockholders of CPA®:16 – Global. On January 24, 2014, our stockholders and the stockholders of CPA®:16 – Global each approved the CPA®:16 Merger, and the CPA®:16 Merger closed on January 31, 2014.

In the CPA®:16 Merger, CPA®:16 – Global stockholders received 0.1830 shares of our common stock in exchange for each share of CPA®:16 – Global stock owned, pursuant to an exchange ratio based upon a value of $11.25 per share of CPA®:16 – Global and the volume weighted-average trading price of our common stock for the five consecutive trading days ending on the third trading day preceding the closing of the transaction on January 31, 2014. CPA®:16 – Global stockholders received cash in lieu of any fractional shares in the CPA®:16 Merger. We paid total merger consideration of approximately $1.8 billion, including the issuance of 30,729,878 shares of our common stock with a fair value of $1.8 billion based on the closing price of our common stock on January 31, 2014, of $59.08 per share, to the stockholders of CPA®:16 – Global in exchange for the 168,041,772 shares of CPA®:16 – Global common stock that we and our affiliates did not previously own, and cash of $1.3 million paid in lieu of issuing any fractional shares, or collectively, the Merger Consideration. As a condition of the CPA®:16 Merger, we waived the subordinated disposition and termination fees that we would have been entitled to receive from CPA®:16 – Global upon its liquidation pursuant to the terms of our advisory agreement with CPA®:16 – Global (Note 4).

Immediately prior to the CPA®:16 Merger, CPA®:16 – Global’s portfolio was comprised of the consolidated full or partial interests in 325 leased properties, substantially all of which were triple-net leased with an average remaining life of 10.4 years and an estimated contractual minimum annualized base rent, or ABR, totaling $300.1 million, and two hotel properties. The related property-level debt was comprised of 92 fixed-rate and 18 variable-rate non-recourse mortgage loans with an aggregate fair value of approximately $1.8 billion and a weighted-average annual interest rate of 5.6% at that date. Additionally, CPA®:16 – Global had a line of credit with an outstanding balance of $170.0 million on the date of the closing of the CPA®:16 Merger (Note 11). In addition, CPA®:16 – Global had equity interests in 18 unconsolidated investments, 11 of which were consolidated by us prior to the CPA®:16 Merger, five of which were consolidated by us subsequent to the CPA®:16 Merger, and two of which were jointly-owned with CPA®:17 – Global. These investments owned 140 properties, substantially all of which were triple-net leased with an average remaining life of 8.6 years and an estimated ABR totaling $63.9 million, as of January 31, 2014. The debt related to these equity investments was comprised of 17 fixed-rate and five variable-rate non-recourse mortgage loans with an aggregate fair value of approximately $0.3 billion and a weighted-average annual interest rate of 4.8% on January 31, 2014. The lease revenues and income from continuing operations from the properties acquired from the date of the CPA®:16 Merger through September 30, 2014 were $184.3 million and $62.5 million (inclusive of $2.2 million attributable to noncontrolling interests), respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, and $68.3 million and $27.3 million (inclusive of $0.4 million attributable to noncontrolling interests), respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2014.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we sold all ten of the properties that were classified as held-for-sale upon acquisition in connection with the CPA®:16 Merger (Note 15). The results of operations for these properties have been included in Income from discontinued operations, net of tax in the consolidated financial statements. In addition, we sold one property subject to a direct financing lease that we acquired in the CPA®:16 Merger (Note 6). The results of operations for this property have been included in Income from continuing operations before income taxes in the consolidated financial statements.
 
Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation

We accounted for the CPA®:16 Merger as a business combination under the acquisition method of accounting. After consideration of all applicable factors pursuant to the business combination accounting rules, we were considered the “accounting acquirer” due to various factors, including the fact that our stockholders held the largest portion of the voting rights in us upon completion of the CPA®:16 Merger. Costs of $30.4 million related to the CPA®:16 Merger were expensed as incurred and classified within Merger and property acquisition expenses in the consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Costs of $5.0 million were incurred and classified within Merger and property acquisition expenses in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013. In addition, CPA®:16 – Global incurred a total of $10.6 million of merger expenses between 2013 and 2014.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

The purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based upon their preliminary fair values at January 31, 2014. The fair values of the lease intangibles acquired were measured in a manner consistent with our purchase price allocation policy described in the 2013 Annual Report. During the second quarter of 2014, we identified certain measurement period adjustments that impacted the provisional accounting, which increased the total consideration by $1.9 million, and also increased total identifiable net assets by $2.3 million, and increased amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests by $0.3 million, resulting in a $0.1 million decrease in goodwill. The following table summarizes the preliminary estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition, based on the current best estimate of management. We are in the process of finalizing our assessment of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Investments in real estate, net investments in direct financing leases, equity investments in real estate, non-recourse debt, and amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests were based on preliminary valuation data and estimates. Accordingly, the fair value of these assets and liabilities and the impact to goodwill are subject to change.

Goodwill
 
The $348.9 million of preliminary estimated goodwill recorded in connection with the CPA®:16 Merger was primarily attributable to the $428.5 million premium we agreed to pay for CPA®:16 – Global’s common stock. At the time we entered into the merger agreement in July 2013, the consideration of $11.25 per common share of CPA®:16 – Global represented a premium of $2.55 per share over the December 31, 2012 estimated net asset value per share, or NAV, of CPA®:16 – Global, its most recently published NAV, which was $8.70. Management believes the premium is supported by several factors of the combined entity, including the fact that (i) it is among the largest publicly-traded commercial net-lease REITs with greater operating and financial flexibility and better access to capital markets and with a lower cost of capital than CPA®:16 – Global had on a stand-alone basis; (ii) the CPA®:16 Merger eliminated costs associated with the advisory structure that CPA®:16 – Global had previously; and (iii) the combined portfolio has greater tenant and geographic diversification and an improved overall weighted-average debt maturity and interest rate. The aforementioned amount of goodwill attributable to the premium was partially offset by an increase in the fair value of the net assets acquired during the time between the December 31, 2012 NAV and the date of the CPA®:16 Merger.
 
The fair value of the 30,729,878 shares of our common stock issued in the CPA®:16 Merger as part of the consideration paid for CPA®:16 – Global of $1.8 billion was derived from the closing market price of our common stock on the acquisition date. As required by GAAP, the fair value related to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as well as the shares exchanged, has been computed as of the date we gained control of CPA®:16 – Global, which was the closing date of the CPA®:16 Merger, in a manner consistent with the methodology described above.
 
Goodwill acquired in the CPA®:16 Merger is not deductible for income tax purposes.

Equity Investments and Noncontrolling Interests
 
During the first quarter of 2014, we recognized a gain on change in control of interests of approximately $73.1 million, which was the difference between the carrying value of approximately $274.1 million and the preliminary estimated fair value of approximately $347.2 million of our previously-held equity interest in 38,229,294 shares of CPA®:16 – Global’s common stock. During the second quarter of 2014, we identified certain measurement period adjustments that impacted the provisional accounting, which increased the estimated fair value of our previously-held equity interest in shares of CPA®:16 – Global’s common stock by $1.3 million, resulting in an increase of $1.3 million in Gain on change in control of interests. In accordance with Accounting Standard Codification, or ASC, 805-10-25, we did not record the measurement period adjustments during the three months ended June 30, 2014. Rather, such amounts will be reflected in all future financial statements that include the three months ended March 31, 2014.
 
The CPA®:16 Merger also resulted in our acquisition of the remaining interests in nine investments in which we already had a joint interest and accounted for under the equity method. Upon acquiring the remaining interests in these investments, we owned 100% of these investments and thus accounted for the acquisitions of these interests utilizing the purchase method of accounting. Due to the change in control of the nine jointly-owned investments that occurred, we recorded a gain on change in control of interests of approximately $30.2 million, which was the difference between our carrying values and the preliminary estimated fair values of our previously-held equity interests on the acquisition date of approximately $142.5 million and approximately $172.7 million, respectively. Subsequent to the CPA®:16 Merger, we consolidate these wholly-owned investments. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, one of these investments was sold and is included in Income from discontinued operations, net of tax in the consolidated financial statements.
 
In connection with the CPA®:16 Merger, we also acquired the remaining interests in 12 less-than-wholly-owned investments that we already consolidate and recorded an adjustment to additional paid-in-capital of approximately $42.0 million related to the difference between our carrying values and the preliminary estimated fair values of our previously-held noncontrolling interests on the acquisition date of approximately $236.8 million and approximately $278.2 million, respectively. During the second quarter of 2014, we identified certain measurement period adjustments that impacted the provisional accounting, which increased the fair value of our previously-held noncontrolling interests on the acquisition date by $0.6 million, resulting in a reduction of $0.6 million to additional paid-in-capital.



W. P. Carey 9/30/2014 10-Q – 13
 
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

The preliminary fair values of our previously-held equity interests and our noncontrolling interests are based on the estimated fair market values of the underlying real estate and related mortgage debt, both of which were determined by management relying in part on a third party. Real estate valuation requires significant judgment. We determined the significant inputs to be Level 3 with ranges for the entire portfolio as follows:
 
•
Discount rates applied to the estimated net operating income of each property ranged from approximately 4.75% to 15.25%;
•
Discount rates applied to the estimated residual value of each property ranged from approximately 4.75% to 14.00%;
•
Residual capitalization rates applied to the properties ranged from approximately 5.00% to 12.50%;
•
The fair market value of the property level debt was determined based upon available market data for comparable liabilities and by applying selected discount rates to the stream of future debt payments; and
•
Discount rates applied to the property level debt cash flows ranged from approximately 1.80% to 8.75%.
 
Other than for two investments, no illiquidity adjustments to the equity interests or noncontrolling interests were deemed necessary as the investments were generally held with affiliates and did not allow for unilateral sale or financing by any of the affiliated parties. With respect to the two investments, a discount of 5% was applied in deriving the value of such interest, reflecting the terms of the third-party jointly-owned investments in which the real estate interest is held. The discount and/or capitalization rates utilized in the appraisals also reflect the illiquidity of real estate assets. Lastly, there were no control premiums contemplated as the investments were in individual, or a portfolio of, underlying real estate and debt, as opposed to a business operation.

Asset Management Revenue
 
We earn asset management revenue from each Managed REIT, which is based on average invested assets and is calculated according to the respective advisory agreement. For CPA®:16 – Global, prior to the CPA®:16 Merger, we earned asset management revenue of 0.5% of average invested assets. For CPA®:17 – Global and CPA®:18 – Global, we earn asset management revenue ranging from 0.5% to 1.75% and 0.5% to 1.5%, respectively, depending on the type of investment and based on the average market value or average equity value, as applicable. For CWI, we earn asset management revenue of 0.5% of the average market value of lodging-related investments.
 
Under the terms of the advisory agreements, we may elect to receive cash or shares of stock for asset management revenue due from each Managed REIT. In 2014 and 2013, we elected to receive all asset management revenue from CPA®:17 – Global, CPA®:18 – Global, and CWI in their respective shares. For 2013, we initially elected to receive asset management revenue from CPA®:16 – Global in its shares until we agreed to receive those fees in cash commencing August 1, 2013 at the request of a Special Committee of the Board of Directors of CPA®:16 – Global.
 
Structuring Revenue
 
Under the terms of the advisory agreements, we earn revenue in connection with structuring and negotiating investments and related financing for the Managed REITs, which we call acquisition revenue. We may receive acquisition revenue of 4.5% of the total aggregate cost of long-term net-lease investments made by each CPA® REIT. A portion of this revenue (generally 2.5%) is paid when the transaction is completed, while the remainder (generally 2%) is paid in annual installments over three years, provided the relevant CPA® REIT meets its performance criterion. For certain types of non-long term net-lease investments acquired on behalf of CPA®:17 – Global, initial acquisition revenue may range from 0% to 1.75% of the equity invested plus the related acquisition revenue, with no deferred acquisition revenue being earned. For CWI, we earn initial acquisition revenue of 2.5% of the total investment cost of the properties acquired and loans originated by CWI not to exceed 6% of the aggregate contract purchase price of all investments and loans, with no deferred acquisition revenue being earned. For CWI, we may also be entitled to fees for structuring loan refinancing transactions of up to 1% of the principal amount. This loan refinancing revenue, together with the acquisition revenue, is referred to as structuring revenue.

Unpaid transaction fees, including accrued interest, are included in Due from affiliates in the consolidated financial statements. Unpaid transaction fees bear interest at annual rates ranging from 2% to 5%.

Reimbursable Costs from Affiliates and Dealer Manager Fees
 
The Managed REITs reimburse us for certain costs we incur on their behalf, primarily broker-dealer commissions, marketing costs, an annual distribution and shareholder servicing fee, or Shareholder Servicing Fee, and certain personnel and overhead costs. Personnel and overhead costs are charged to the CPA® REITs based on the average of the trailing 12-month reported revenues of the CPA® REITs, CWI, and us. We began to allocate personnel and overhead costs to CWI on January 1, 2014 based on the time incurred by our personnel. For 2014, we agreed to receive personnel cost reimbursements from CWI in shares of its common stock.

During CWI’s initial public offering, which was terminated in September 2013, we earned a selling commission of $0.70 per share sold and a dealer manager fee of $0.30 per share sold. We currently earn a selling commission of $0.70 per share sold and a dealer manager fee of $0.30 per share sold for CWI’s follow-on offering, which began in December 2013. We also earned a selling commission of $0.65 per share sold and a dealer manager fee of $0.35 per share sold during CPA®:17 – Global’s follow-on offering, which was terminated in January 2013.

For CPA®:18 – Global’s initial public offering, we receive selling commissions, depending on the class of common stock sold, of $0.70 or $0.14 per share sold, and a dealer manager fee of $0.30 or $0.21 per share sold, for its class A common stock and class C common stock, respectively. CPA®:18 – Global completed sales of its class A common stock during July 2014. We also receive a Shareholder Servicing Fee paid in connection with investor purchases of shares of class C common stock. The amount of the Shareholder Servicing Fee is 1% of the purchase price per share (or, once reported, the amount of the estimated NAV per share) for the shares of class C common stock sold in the offering. The Shareholder Servicing Fee is accrued daily and is payable quarterly in arrears. CPA®:18 – Global will cease paying the Shareholder Servicing Fee on the date at which, in the aggregate, underwriting compensation from all sources, including the Shareholder Servicing Fee, any organizational and offering fee paid for underwriting, and underwriting compensation paid by us, equals 10% of the gross proceeds from the initial public offering.



W. P. Carey 9/30/2014 10-Q – 16
 
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

We re-allow all of the selling commissions and may re-allow a portion of the dealer manager fees to selected dealers in the offerings for CWI and CPA®:18 – Global. Dealer manager fees that are not re-allowed and Shareholder Servicing Fees are classified as Dealer manager fees in the consolidated financial statements.

Pursuant to its advisory agreement, CWI is obligated to reimburse us for all organization costs and a portion of offering costs incurred in connection with its initial and follow-on public offerings up to a maximum amount (excluding selling commissions and the dealer manager fee) of 2% and 4%, respectively, of the gross proceeds of its offering and distribution reinvestment plan. Through September 30, 2014, we incurred organization and offering costs on behalf of CWI of approximately $12.3 million, which CWI is obligated to reimburse us, and $12.3 million had been reimbursed as of September 30, 2014.

Pursuant to its advisory agreement, CPA®:18 – Global is obligated to reimburse us for all organization costs and a portion of offering costs incurred in connection with its initial public offering. CPA®:18 – Global is obligated to reimburse us up to 1.5% of the gross proceeds within 60 days after the end of the quarter in which the offering terminates. Through September 30, 2014, we incurred organization and offering costs on behalf of CPA®:18 – Global of approximately $7.7 million, and based on current fundraising projections, the entire amount is expected to be reimbursed by CPA®:18 – Global. As of September 30, 2014, $7.4 million had been reimbursed.
 
Distributions of Available Cash and Deferred Revenue Earned
 
We are entitled to receive distributions of our share of earnings up to 10% of the Available Cash from the operating partnerships of each of the Managed REITs, as defined in their respective operating partnership agreements. In May 2011, we acquired a special member interest, or the Special Member Interest, in CPA®:16 – Global’s operating partnership. We initially recorded this Special Member Interest at its fair value, and amortized it into earnings through the date of the CPA®:16 Merger. Cash distributions of our proportionate share of earnings from the Managed REITs’ operating partnerships as well as deferred revenue earned from our Special Member Interest in CPA®:16 – Global’s operating partnership are recorded as Income from equity investments in real estate and the Managed REITs within the Real Estate Ownership segment.

Loans to Managed REITs

During 2013 and 2014, our board of directors approved unsecured loans from us to CWI and CPA®:18 – Global of up to $75.0 million and up to $100.0 million, respectively, each at a rate equal to the rate at which we are able to borrow funds under our senior credit facility (Note 11), for the purpose of facilitating acquisitions approved by their respective investment committees, that they would not otherwise have sufficient available funds to complete, with any loans to be made solely at our Management’s discretion. On June 25, 2014, in order to facilitate an acquisition by CWI, we made an $11.0 million loan to CWI, with an annual interest rate of London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, plus 1.1% and a scheduled maturity date of June 30, 2015. The loan, including accrued interest, was repaid in full prior to maturity on July 22, 2014. On August 20, 2013, in order to facilitate an acquisition by CPA®:18 – Global, we made a $15.0 million loan to CPA®:18 – Global, which was repaid in full prior to maturity on October 4, 2013.

Treasury Stock

In February 2014, we repurchased 11,037 shares of our common stock for $0.7 million in cash from the former independent directors of CPA®:16 – Global at a price per share equal to the volume weighted-average trading price of our stock utilized in the CPA®:16 Merger. These shares were issued to them as Merger Consideration in exchange for their shares of CPA®:16 – Global common stock in the CPA®:16 Merger (Note 3) and were repurchased by agreement in order to satisfy the independence requirements set forth in the organizational documents of the remaining CPA® REITs, for which these individuals also serve as independent directors.

Other

We own interests in entities ranging from 3% to 90%, as well as jointly-controlled tenancy-in-common interests in properties, with the remaining interests generally held by affiliates, and own common stock in each of the Managed REITs. We consolidate certain of these investments and account for the remainder under the equity method of accounting.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the U.S. dollar strengthened against the euro, as the end-of-period rate for the U.S. dollar in relation to the euro at September 30, 2014 decreased by 7.9% to $1.2687 from $1.3768 at December 31, 2013. The impact of this strengthening was an $81.3 million decrease in the carrying value of Real estate from December 31, 2013 to September 30, 2014 (Note 11).

As discussed in Note 3, we acquired 225 properties subject to existing operating leases in the CPA®:16 Merger, which increased the carrying value of our real estate by $2.0 billion during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. In connection with restructuring three leases, we reclassified properties with an aggregate carrying value of $13.7 million from Net investments in direct financing leases to Real estate during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 (Note 6).

Acquisitions of Real Estate

During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we entered into the following investments, which were deemed to be business combinations because we assumed the existing leases on the properties, at a total cost of $252.0 million, including land of $26.9 million, buildings of $188.3 million, and net lease intangibles of $36.8 million (Note 8):

•
an investment of $41.9 million for an office building in Chandler, Arizona on March 26, 2014;
•
an investment of $47.2 million for a warehouse/distribution facility in University Park, Illinois on May 15, 2014;
•
an investment of $116.9 million for an office building in Stavanger, Norway on August 6, 2014. Because we acquired stock in a subsidiary of the seller to complete the acquisition, we assumed the tax basis of the entity that we purchased and recorded an estimated deferred tax liability of $14.6 million. In connection with this business combination, we recorded goodwill of $11.7 million (Note 8). Dollar amounts are based on the exchange rate of the Norwegian krone on the date of acquisition; and
•
an investment of $46.0 million for an office building in Westborough, Massachusetts on August 22, 2014.

The purchase price for our investment in Norway was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their preliminary estimated fair values, which are based on the best estimates of management at the date of acquisition. We are in the process of finalizing our assessment of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

In connection with these transactions, we expensed acquisition-related costs totaling $0.8 million, which are included in Merger and property acquisition expenses in the consolidated financial statements.

Note 6. Finance Receivables
 
Assets representing rights to receive money on demand or at fixed or determinable dates are referred to as finance receivables. Our finance receivables portfolio consists of our Net investments in direct financing leases, notes receivable, and deferred acquisition fees. Operating leases are not included in finance receivables as such amounts are not recognized as an asset in the consolidated financial statements.

Interest income from direct financing leases, which was included in Lease revenues in the consolidated financial statements, was $20.8 million and $9.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $59.3 million and $28.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. In connection with the CPA®:16 Merger in January 2014, we acquired 98 properties subject to direct financing leases with a total fair value of $538.2 million (Note 3), of which one was sold during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 (Note 15). During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the U.S. dollar strengthened against the euro, as the end-of-period rate for the U.S. dollar in relation to the euro at September 30, 2014 decreased by 7.9% to $1.2687 from $1.3768 at December 31, 2013. The impact of this strengthening was a $32.6 million decrease in the carrying value of Net investments in direct financing leases from December 31, 2013 to September 30, 2014. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we reclassified properties with a carrying value of $13.7 million from Net investments in direct financing leases to Real estate (Note 5), in connection with the restructuring of the underlying leases. We also recognized impairment charges totaling $0.8 million on six properties accounted for as Net investments in direct financing leases in connection with an other-than-temporary decline in the estimated fair values of the properties’ residual values (Note 9).

At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, Other assets, net included $1.7 million and $0.1 million, respectively, of accounts receivable related to amounts billed under these direct financing leases.

Notes Receivable

At September 30, 2014, our notes receivable, which were included in Other assets, net in the consolidated financial statements, consisted of the following:

•
A note we acquired in the CPA®:16 Merger with a carrying value of $11.1 million on the date of acquisition, representing the expected future payments under a sales type lease; and
•
A B-note we acquired in the CPA®:16 Merger with a carrying value of $9.9 million on the date of acquisition. This note has a fixed annual interest rate of 6.3% and a maturity date of February 11, 2015.

Deferred Acquisition Fees Receivable
 
As described in Note 4, we earn revenue in connection with structuring and negotiating investments and related mortgage financing for the CPA® REITs. A portion of this revenue is due in equal annual installments over three years, provided the CPA® REITs meet their respective performance criteria. Unpaid deferred installments, including accrued interest, from the CPA® REITs were included in Due from affiliates in the consolidated financial statements.
 
Credit Quality of Finance Receivables
 
We generally seek investments in facilities that we believe are critical to a tenant’s business and that we believe have a low risk of tenant default. At both September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, none of the balances of our finance receivables were past due and we had not established any allowances for credit losses. Other than the lease restructurings discussed above, there

were no modifications of finance receivables during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 or the year ended December 31, 2013. We evaluate the credit quality of our finance receivables utilizing an internal five-point credit rating scale, with one representing the highest credit quality and five representing the lowest. The credit quality evaluation of our finance receivables was last updated in the third quarter of 2014. We believe the credit quality of our deferred acquisition fees receivable falls under category one, as the CPA® REITs are expected to have the available cash to make such payments.
