Sun Communities, Inc. Reports 2016 Second Quarter Results

Southfield, Michigan, August 2, 2016 - Sun Communities, Inc. (NYSE: SUI) (the "Company"), a real estate investment trust ("REIT") that owns and operates manufactured housing ("MH") and recreational vehicle ("RV") communities, today reported its second quarter results.

Highlights: Three Months Ended June 30, 2016


Funds from operations ("FFO")(1) excluding certain items was $0.85 per diluted share and OP unit ("Share") for the three months ended June 30, 2016.

Home sales increased by 30.2 percent as compared to the second quarter of 2015.

Revenue producing sites increased by 501 sites for the quarter bringing total portfolio occupancy to 96.1 percent.

Same community Net Operating Income ("NOI")(2) increased by 6.9 percent as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2015.

Closed on the Carefree acquisition, a 103 community portfolio of MH and RV communities concentrated in Florida, California and Ontario, Canada.

"We delivered impressive second quarter results while working to close and begin the integration of the Carefree portfolio a month ahead of schedule,” said Gary A. Shiffman, Chairman and CEO. “We achieved same community NOI growth of 6.9 percent spurred by weighted average rent increases of 3.2% and occupancy gains of 250 basis points since June of 2015. In addition, we successfully added 501 rent producing sites to the portfolio and converted 278 rental sites to owners.  Home sales remain strong as well with a unit increase of 30 percent in the quarter. With the closing of Carefree behind us, we are focusing our efforts on its successful integration as we implement our practices to make Carefree as productive as the balance of our platform.”

Previously communicated second quarter 2016 FFO(1) guidance was $0.79 to $0.81 per Share. The early close of the Carefree acquisition on June 9, 2016 reduced dilution from the issuance of equity prior to the closing of the transaction from $0.08 per Share to $0.06 per Share. The partial month contribution from Carefree was $0.01 per Share and strong performance from Sun’s portfolio contributed an additional $0.02 FFO(1) per Share for the quarter.

OPERATING HIGHLIGHTS

Community Occupancy

Total portfolio occupancy increased to 96.1 percent at June 30, 2016 from 93.5 percent at June 30, 2015 from a combination of occupancy gains, the acquisition of properties with higher occupancy and the disposition of properties with lower occupancy. During the second quarter of 2016, revenue producing sites increased by 501, as compared to 500 revenue producing sites gained in the second quarter of 2015.

Revenue producing sites increased by 1,093 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to 999 revenue producing sites gained during the six months ended June 30, 2015.

Same Community Results

For the 219 communities owned throughout 2016 and 2015, second quarter 2016 total revenues increased 5.6 percent and total expenses increased 2.7 percent, resulting in an increase in NOI(2) of 6.9 percent over the second quarter of 2015. The results were primarily driven by 250 basis points of occupancy gain to 96.4 percent and a weighted average rent increase of 3.2 percent compared to the same period last year.

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, total revenues increased by 6.1 percent and total expenses increased by 4.8 percent, resulting in an increase in NOI(2) of 6.6 percent over the six months ended June 30, 2015.

Home Sales

Total home sales were 750 for the second quarter as compared to 576 homes sold during the second quarter of 2015, a 30.2 percent increase, driven by the sale of an additional 180 pre-owned homes.

Rental homes sales, which are included in total home sales, were 278 and 207 for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, a 34.3 percent increase.

During the six months ended June 30, 2016, 1,515 homes were sold compared to 1,119 for the same period ending 2015. Rental home sales, which are included in total home sales, were 572 and 388 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Acquisitions (4) 

In June, the Company completed the acquisition of the Carefree portfolio for $1.68 billion which is comprised of 103 manufactured housing and recreational vehicle communities located in prime coastal markets with over 27,000 total sites. The Company continues to expect the Carefree acquisition to be accretive over the first 12 months but due to the geographic concentration in Florida and related seasonality of RV communities, revenue recognition for this portfolio is weighted toward the first and second quarters of the year.

The Company also acquired one RV community in Florida during the quarter comprised of 183 sites, for total consideration of $7.0 million.


BALANCE SHEET AND CAPITAL MARKETS ACTIVITY

Debt Transactions

To fund a portion of the acquisition price of the Carefree portfolio the Company completed two financings that totaled approximately $743.0 million. The first financing, which closed on June 3, 2016, consists of two ten-year loans for an aggregate amount of $338.0 million at a weighted average interest rate of 3.69 percent. The second financing, which closed on June 9, 2016, consists of three loans with maturities between ten and twelve years for an aggregate amount of $405.0 million at a weighted average interest rate of 3.64 percent.

As of June 30, 2016, the Company had approximately $3.3 billion of debt outstanding. The weighted average interest rate was 4.39 percent and the weighted average maturity was 8.8 years. The Company had $31.4 million of unrestricted cash on hand. At period-end the Company’s net debt to trailing twelve month EBITDA(3) ratio was 9.1 times. This ratio was elevated at the period end as it is calculated on trailing EBITDA which does not give credit for the income produced by the Carefree acquisition. The Company anticipates that this ratio will improve to near its stated goal of at or below 7.0 times by mid- 2017.

Equity Transaction

During the quarter the Company sold 485,000 shares of common stock through its At the Market equity sales program at a weighted average price of $71.86 per share. Net proceeds from the sales were $34.4 million.

GUIDANCE 2016

The Company is updating its 2016 guidance for the impact of the Carefree acquisition, its other acquisitions, and other affiliated capital transactions.
 
The Company anticipates FFO(1) per Share for full year 2016 to be in the range of $3.75 to $3.80.
The following items are reflected in the revised guidance:
Impact of March equity (date of offering until Carefree closing)
and June ATM issuance         $(0.09) per Share
Estimated contribution from Carefree and other acquired properties        $0.07 per Share
Year to date outperformance of portfolio                    $0.04 per Share

Sun Communities, Inc. 2nd Quarter 2016                                 Page 4





The Company anticipates FFO(1) per Share of $1.10 to $1.12 for the third quarter and $0.90 to $0.93 for the fourth quarter.

FFO(1) per Share estimates assume certain non-core items are adjusted from FFO(1) as noted in the table contained in this press release. The estimates and assumptions presented above represent a range of possible outcomes and may differ materially from actual results. The estimates and assumptions are forward looking based on the Company's current assessment of economic and market conditions, as well as other risks outlined below under the caption "Forward-Looking Statements."

(1) 
Funds from operations attributable to Sun Communities, Inc. common stockholders and dilutive convertible securities ("FFO") is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles "GAAP"), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable operating property, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure that management believes is a useful supplemental measure of the Company's operating performance. Management generally considers FFO to be a useful measure for reviewing comparative operating and financial performance because, by excluding gains and losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets, impairment and excluding real estate asset depreciation and amortization (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates), FFO provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs, providing perspective not readily apparent from net loss. Management believes that the use of FFO has been beneficial in improving the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and making comparisons of REIT operating results more meaningful. FFO is computed in accordance with the Company's interpretation of standards established by NAREIT, which may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than the Company.

Because FFO excludes significant economic components of net income (loss) including depreciation and amortization, FFO should be used as an adjunct to net income (loss) and not as an alternative to net income (loss). The principal limitation of FFO is that it does not represent cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP and is a supplemental measure of performance that does not replace net income (loss) as a measure of performance or net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity. In addition, FFO is not intended as a measure of a REIT's ability to meet debt principal repayments and other cash requirements, nor as a measure of working capital. FFO only provides investors with an additional performance measure.

(2) 
Investors in and analysts following the real estate industry utilize NOI as a supplemental performance measure. NOI is derived from revenues minus property operating expenses and real estate taxes. NOI does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered to be an alternative to net income (loss) (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of the Company's financial performance or to be an alternative to cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of the Company's liquidity; nor is it indicative of funds available for the Company's cash needs, including its ability to make cash distributions. The Company believes that net income (loss) is the most directly comparable GAAP measurement to NOI. Net income (loss) includes interest and depreciation and amortization which often have no effect on the market value of a property and therefore limit its use as a performance measure. In addition, such expenses are often incurred at a parent company level and therefore are not necessarily linked to the performance of a real estate asset. The Company believes that NOI is helpful to investors as a measure of operating performance because it is an indicator of the return on property investment, and provides a method of comparing property performance over time. The Company uses NOI as a key management tool when evaluating performance and growth of particular properties and/or groups of properties. The principal limitation of NOI is that it excludes depreciation, amortization, interest expense, and non-property specific expenses such as general and administrative expenses, all of which are significant costs, and therefore, NOI is a measure of the operating performance of the properties of the Company rather than of the Company overall.

(3) 
EBITDA is defined as NOI plus other income, plus (minus) equity earnings (loss) from affiliates, minus general and administrative expenses. EBITDA includes EBITDA from discontinued operations.

(4) 
The consideration amounts presented with respect to acquired communities represent the economic transaction and do not contemplate the fair value purchase accounting required by GAAP.
