1.Description of the Business
Public Storage (referred to herein as “the Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), a Maryland real estate investment trust (“REIT”), was organized in 1980. Our principal business activities include the ownership and operation of self-storage facilities which offer storage spaces for lease, generally on a month-to-month basis, for personal and business use, ancillary activities such as merchandise sales and tenant reinsurance to the tenants at our self-storage facilities, as well as the acquisition and development of additional self-storage space.
At June 30, 2019,2020, we have direct and indirect equity interests in 2,4562,500 self-storage facilities (with approximately 166171 million net rentable square feet) located in 38 states in the United States (“U.S.”) operating under the “Public Storage” name, and 0.9 million net rentable square feet of commercial and retail space.
We own 31.3 million common shares (an approximate 35% interest) of Shurgard Self Storage SA (“Shurgard”, referred to in previous filings as “Shurgard Europe”), a public company traded on Euronext Brussels under the “SHUR” symbol, which owns 231238 self-storage facilities (with approximately 13 million net rentable square feet) located in seven7 Western European countries, all operating under the “Shurgard” name. We also own an aggregate approximate 42% common equity interest in PS Business Parks, Inc. (“PSB”), a REIT traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the “PSB” symbol, which owns 2827.5 million aggregate net rentable square feet of commercial properties, primarily multi-tenant industrial, flex, and office space, located in six6 states.
Disclosures of the number and square footage of facilities, as well as the number and coverage of tenant reinsurance policies (Note 12) are unaudited and outside the scope of our independent registered public accounting firm’s review of our financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (U.S.).
2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
We have prepared the accompanying interim financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) as set forth in the Accounting Standards Codification of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), and in conformity with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In our opinion, the interim financial statements presented herein reflect all adjustments, primarily of a normal recurring nature, that are necessary to fairly present the interim financial statements. Because they do not include all of the disclosures required by GAAP for complete annual financial statements, these interim financial statements should be read together with the audited financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.2019.
Certain amounts previously reported in our June 30, 20182019 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the June 30, 2019 presentation, including separate presentation on our Statements of Cash Flows of our cash payments for real estate investments between cash paid for amounts incurred during the current period and amounts incurred during previous periods.2020 presentation.
Consolidation and Equity Method of Accounting
We consider entities to be Variable Interest Entities (“VIEs”) when they have insufficient equity to finance their activities without additional subordinated financial support provided by other parties, or the equity holders as a group do not have a controlling financial interest. We consolidate VIEs when we have (i) the power to direct the activities most significantly impacting economic performance, and (ii) either the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE. We have no involvement with any material VIEs. We consolidate all other entities when we control them through voting shares or contractual rights. The entities we
PUBLIC STORAGE
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)
consolidate all other entities when we control them through voting shares or contractual rights. The entities we consolidate, for the period in which the reference applies, are referred to collectively as the “Subsidiaries,” and we eliminate intercompany transactions and balances.
We account for our investments in entities that we do not consolidate but have significant influence over using the equity method of accounting. These entities, for the periods in which the reference applies, are referred to collectively as the “Unconsolidated Real Estate Entities,” eliminating intra-entity profits and losses and amortizing any differences between the cost of our investment and the underlying equity in net assets against equity in earnings as if the Unconsolidated Real Estate Entity were a consolidated subsidiary.
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated real estate entities presented on our income statements represents our pro-rata share of the earnings of the Unconsolidated Real Estate Entities. The dividends we receive from the Unconsolidated Real Estate Entities are reflected on our statements of cash flows as “distributions from cumulative equity in earnings of unconsolidated real estate entities” to the extent of our cumulative equity in earnings, with any excess classified as “distributions in excess of cumulative equity in earnings from unconsolidated real estate entities.”
When we begin consolidating an entity, we reflect our preexisting equity interest at book value. All changes in consolidation status are reflected prospectively.
Collectively, at June 30, 2019,2020, the Company and the Subsidiaries own 2,4562,500 self-storage facilities and three4 commercial facilities in the U.S. At June 30, 2019,2020, the Unconsolidated Real Estate Entities are comprised of PSB and Shurgard.
Use of Estimates
The financial statements and accompanying notes reflect our estimates and assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.
Income Taxes
We have elected to be treated as a REIT, as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). As a REIT, we do not incur federal income tax if we distribute 100% of our REIT taxable income each year, and if we meet certain organizational and operational rules. We believe we have met these REIT requirements for all periods presented herein. Accordingly, we have recorded no0 federal income tax expense related to our REIT taxable income.
Our merchandise and tenant reinsurance operations are subject to corporate income tax and such taxes are included in ancillary cost of operations. We also incur income and other taxes in certain states, which are included in general and administrative expense.
We recognize tax benefits of uncertain income tax positions that are subject to audit only if we believe it is more likely than not that the position would ultimately be sustained assuming the relevant taxing authorities had full knowledge of the relevant facts and circumstances of our positions. As of June 30, 2019,2020, we had no0 tax benefits that were not recognized.
Real Estate Facilities
Real estate facilities are recorded at cost. We capitalize all costs incurred to acquire, develop, construct, renovate and improve facilities, including interest and property taxes incurred during the construction period. We

allocate the net acquisition cost of acquired real estate facilities to the underlying land, buildings, and identified intangible assets based upon their respective individual estimated fair values.
11
PUBLIC STORAGE
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2019
(Unaudited)
Costs associated with dispositions of real estate, as well as repairs and maintenance costs, are expensed as incurred. We depreciate buildings and improvements on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives ranging generally between 5 to 25 years.
When we sell a full or partial interest in a real estate facility without retaining a controlling interest following sale, we recognize a gain or loss on sale as if 100% of the property was sold at fair value. If we retain a controlling interest following the sale, we record a noncontrolling interest for the book value of the partial interest sold, and recognize additional paid-in capital for the difference between the consideration received and the partial interest at book value.
Other Assets
Other assets primarily consist of rents receivable from our tenants (net of an allowance for uncollectible amounts), prepaid expenses, restricted cash and right-to-use assets. See “Recent Accounting PronouncementsAt December 31, 2019, other assets included a note receivable, which was amortized on the effective interest method with a book value of $2.9 million at the time it was repaid in June 2020 at its $4.9 million contractual note balance. The $2.0 million excess proceeds were recorded as interest and Guidance” below.other income during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.
Accrued and Other Liabilities
Accrued and other liabilities consist primarily of rents prepaid by our tenants, trade payables, property tax accruals, accrued payroll, accrued tenant reinsurance losses, lease liabilities, and contingent loss accruals when probable and estimable. See “Recent Accounting Pronouncements and Guidance” below. We believe the fair value of our accrued and other liabilities approximates book value, due primarily to the short period until repayment. We disclose the nature of significant unaccrued losses that are reasonably possible of occurring and, if estimable, a range of exposure.
Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, Marketable Securities and Other Financial Instruments
Cash equivalents represent highly liquid financial instruments such as money market funds with daily liquidity or short-term commercial paper or treasury securities maturing within three months of acquisition. Cash and equivalents which are restricted from general corporate use are included in other assets. We believe that the book value of all such financial instruments for all periods presented approximates fair value, due to the short period to maturity.
Fair Value
As used herein, the term “fair value” is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Our estimates of fair value involve considerable judgment and are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized in current market exchanges.
We estimate the fair value of our cash and equivalents, marketable securities, other assets, debt, and other liabilities by discounting the related future cash flows at a rate based upon quoted interest rates for securities that have similar characteristics such as credit quality and time to maturity. Such quoted interest rates are referred to generally as “Level 2” inputs.
We use significant judgment to estimate fair values of investments in real estate, goodwill, and other intangible assets. In estimating their values, we consider significant unobservable inputs such as market prices

of land, market capitalization rates, expected returns, earnings multiples, projected levels of earnings, costs of construction, and functional depreciation. These inputs are referred to generally as “Level 3” inputs.

Currency and Credit Risk
Financial instruments that are exposed to credit risk consist primarily of cash and equivalents, certain portions of other assets including rents receivable from our tenants (net of an allowance for uncollectible receivables based upon expected losses in the portfolio) and restricted cash. Cash equivalents we invest in are either money market funds with a rating of at least AAA by Standard & Poor’s, commercial paper that is rated A1 by Standard & Poor’s or deposits with highly rated commercial banks.
At June 30, 2019,2020, due primarily to our investment in Shurgard (Note 4) and our notes payable denominated in Euros (Note 6), our operating results and financial position are affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates between the Euro, and to a lesser extent, other European currencies, against the U.S. Dollar.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are comprised of goodwill, the “Shurgard” trade name, acquired customers in place, and leasehold interests in land.finite-lived assets.
Goodwill totaled $174.6 million at June 30, 20192020 and December 31, 2018.2019. The “Shurgard” trade name, which is used by Shurgard pursuant to a fee-based licensing agreement, has a book value of $18.8 million at June 30, 20192020 and December 31, 2018.2019. Goodwill and the “Shurgard” trade name have indefinite lives and are not amortized.
AcquiredOur finite-lived assets are comprised primarily of (i) acquired customers in place and leasehold interests in land are finite-lived assets and are amortized relative to the benefit of the customers in place, orwith such amortization reflected as depreciation and amortization expense on our income statement and (ii) property tax abatements amortized relative to the benefit to land lease expense to each period.reduction in property tax paid, with such amortization reflected as self-storage cost of operations on our income statement. At June 30, 2019,2020, these intangibles had a net book value of $16.8$13.5 million ($16.512.5 million at December 31, 2018)2019). Accumulated amortization totaled $29.2$31.3 million at June 30, 20192020 ($28.927.5 million at December 31, 2018), and amortization expense2019). A total of $8.4$4.3 million and $8.8$9.0 million in amortization expense was recorded in the three and six months ended June 30, 20192020, respectively, and 2018, respectively. $4.5 million and $8.4 million in the same periods in 2019.
The estimated future amortization expense for our finite-lived intangible assets at June 30, 20192020 is approximately $6.7$4.6 million in the remainder of 2019, $5.02020, $2.8 million in 20202021 and $5.1$6.1 million thereafter. During the six months ended June 30, 2019,2020, intangibles increased $8.7$10.0 million in connection with the acquisition of self-storage facilities (Note 3).
Evaluation of Asset Impairment
We evaluate our real estate and finite-lived intangible assets for impairment each quarter. If there are indicators of impairment and we determine that the asset is not recoverable from future undiscounted cash flows to be received through the asset’s remaining life (or, if earlier, the expected disposal date), we record an impairment charge to the extent the carrying amount exceeds the asset’s estimated fair value or net proceeds from expected disposal.
We evaluate our investments in unconsolidated real estate entities for impairment on a quarterly basis. We record an impairment charge to the extent the carrying amount exceeds estimated fair value, when we believe any such shortfall is other than temporary.

We evaluate goodwill for impairment annually and whenever relevant events, circumstances and other related factors indicate that fair value of the related reporting unit may be less than the carrying amount. If we determine that the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the aggregate carrying amount, no impairment charge is recorded. Otherwise, we record an impairment charge to the extent the carrying amount of the goodwill exceeds the amount that would be allocated to goodwill if the reporting unit were acquired for estimated fair value.

(Unaudited)
We evaluate other indefinite-lived intangible assets, such as the “Shurgard” trade name for impairment at least annually and whenever relevant events, circumstances and other related factors indicate that the fair value is less than the carrying amount. When we conclude that it is likely that the asset is not impaired, we do not record an impairment charge and no further analysis is performed. Otherwise, we record an impairment charge to the extent the carrying amount exceeds the asset’s estimated fair value.
NoNaN impairments were recorded in any of our evaluations for any period presented herein.
Revenue and Expense Recognition
Revenues from self-storage facilities, which are primarily composed of rental income earned pursuant to month-to-month leases, as well as associated late charges and administrative fees, are recognized as earned. Promotional discounts reduce rental income over the promotional period, which is generally one month. Ancillary revenues and interest and other income are recognized when earned.
We accrue for property tax expense based upon actual amounts billed and, in some circumstances, estimates when bills or assessments have not been received from the taxing authorities. If these estimates are incorrect, the timing and amount of expense recognition could be incorrect. Cost of operations (including advertising expenditures), general and administrative expense, and interest expense are expensed as incurred.
Foreign Currency Exchange Translation
The local currency (primarily the Euro) is the functional currency for our interests in foreign operations. The related balance sheet amounts are translated into U.S. Dollars at the exchange rates at the respective financial statement date, while amounts on our statements of income are translated at the average exchange rates during the respective period. When financial instruments denominated in a currency other than the U.S. Dollar are expected to be settled in cash in the foreseeable future, the impact of changes in the U.S. Dollar equivalent are reflected in current earnings. The Euro was translated at exchange rates of approximately 1.1371.123 U.S. Dollars per Euro at June 30, 2019 (1.1442020 (1.122 at December 31, 2018)2019), and average exchange rates of 1.1241.101 and 1.1921.124 for the three months ended June 30, 20192020 and 2018,2019, respectively, and average exchange rates of 1.1301.102 and 1.2101.130 for the six months ended June 30, 20192020 and 2018,2019, respectively. Cumulative translation adjustments, to the extent not included in cumulative net income, are included in equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
Comprehensive Income
Total comprehensive income represents net income, adjusted for changes in other comprehensive income (loss) for the applicable period. The aggregate foreign currency exchange gains and losses reflected on our statements of comprehensive income are comprised primarily of foreign currency exchange gains and losses on our investment in Shurgard and our unsecured notes denominated in Euros.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements and Guidance
In February 2016,November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02,2018- 19, Leases,"Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses," which amends the existing accounting standards for lease accounting, including requiring lesseesclarified that credit losses with respect to recognize most leases on their balance sheets and making targeted changes to lessor accounting.receivables The new standard requires a modified-retrospective approach to adoption and became effective for interim and annual periods beginning on January 1, 2019. In July 2018, the FASB further amended this standard to allow for a new transition method that offers the option to use the effective date as the date of initial application and not adjust the comparative-period financial information. We adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2019, using the new transition method, recording a total of $38.7 million in right of use assets, reflected in other assets, and substantially the same amount in lease liabilities, reflected inarising from

We estimated the incremental borrowing rate primarily by reference to average yield spread on debt issuances by companies of a similar credit rating as us and the treasury yields as of January 1, 2019.

In addition, for leases where we arewell as resurgences of the lessee, we also elected to (a) not apply the new standard to our leases with an original term of 12 months or less, and (b) not separate lease and associated non-lease components.virus, among other factors.
Net Income per Common Share
Net income is allocated to (i) noncontrolling interests based upon their share of the net income of the Subsidiaries, (ii) preferred shareholders, to the extent redemption cost exceeds the related original net issuance proceeds (an “EITF D-42 allocation”), and (iii) the remaining net income is allocated to each of our equity securities based upon the dividends declared or accumulated during the period, combined with participation rights in undistributed earnings.
Basic and diluted net income per common share are each calculated based upon net income allocable to common shareholders presented on the face of our income statement, divided by (i) in the case of basic net income per common share, weighted average common shares, and (ii) in the case of diluted income per share, weighted average common shares adjusted for the impact, if dilutive, of stock options outstanding (Note 10).

9.Related Party Transactions
B. Wayne Hughes, our former Chairman, and his family, including his daughter Tamara Hughes Gustavson and his son B. Wayne Hughes, Jr., who are both members of our Board, collectively own approximately 14.5%14.1% of our common shares outstanding at June 30, 2019.2020.
At June 30, 2019, B. Wayne Hughes and2020, Tamara Hughes Gustavson together owned and controlled 6263 self-storage facilities in Canada. These facilities operate under the “Public Storage” tradename, which we license to the owners of these facilities for use in Canada on a royalty-free, non-exclusive basis. We have no0 ownership interest in these facilities and we do not0t own or operate any facilities in Canada. If we chose to acquire or develop our own facilities in Canada, we would have to share the use of the “Public Storage” name in Canada. We have a right of first refusal, subject to limitations, to acquire the stock or assets of the corporation engaged in the operation of these facilities if their owners agree to sell them. Our subsidiaries reinsure risks relating to loss of goods stored by customers in these facilities, and have received approximately $696,000$719,000 and $625,000$696,000 for the six months ended June 30, 20192020 and 2018,2019, respectively. Our right to continue receiving these premiums may be qualified.
10.Share-Based Compensation
Under various share-based compensation plans and under terms established by our Board or a committee thereof, we grant non-qualified options to purchase the Company’s common shares, as well as restricted share units (“RSUs”), to trustees, officers, and key employees.
PUBLIC STORAGE
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2020
(Unaudited)
Stock options and RSUs are considered “granted” and “outstanding” as the terms are used herein, when (i) the Company and the recipient reach a mutual understanding of the key terms of the award, (ii) the award has been authorized, (iii) the recipient is affected by changes in the market price of our stock, and (iv) it is probable that any performance conditions will be met.
We amortize the grant-date fair value of awards as compensation expense over the service period, which begins on the grant date and ends generally on the vesting date. For awards that are earned solely upon the passage of time and continued service, the entire cost of the award is amortized on a straight-line basis over the service period. For awards with performance conditions, the individual cost of each vesting is amortized separately over each individual service period (the “accelerated attribution” method).
The Codification previously stipulated that grants to nonemployee service providers (other than to trustees, where equity method treatment was permitted) were accounted for on the liability method, with expenses adjusted each period based upon changes in fair value. Recent changes in the Codification allows such grants to be accounted for on the equity award method, with compensation expense based upon grant date fair value. While we have no such grants to any such individuals for any periods presented, we will account for any future grants to nonemployee service providers based upon the equity award method.
In amortizing share-based compensation expense, we do not estimate future forfeitures in advance. Instead, we reverse previously amortized share-based compensation expense with respect to grants that are forfeited in the period the employee terminates employment.

In February 2018, we announced that our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer at the time were retiring from their executive roles at the end of 2018 and would then serve only as Trustees of the Company. Pursuant to our share-based compensation plans, their unvested grants will continue to vest over the original vesting periods during their service as Trustees. For financial reporting, the end of the service periods for previous stock option and RSU grants for these executives changed from (i) the various vesting dates to (ii) December 31, 2018 when they retired. Accordingly, all remaining share-based compensation expense for these two executives was amortized in the year ended December 31, 2018.
See also “net income per common share” in Note 2 for further discussion regarding the impact of RSUs and stock options on our net income per common share and income allocated to common shareholders.
Stock Options
Stock options vest over 3 to 5years, expire ten years after the grant date, and the exercise price is equal to the closing trading price of our common shares on the grant date. Employees cannot require the Company to settle their award in cash. We use the Black-Scholes option valuation model to estimate the fair value of our stock options.
Outstanding stock option grants are included on a one-for-one basis in our diluted weighted average shares, to the extent dilutive, after applying the treasury stock method (based upon the average common share price during the period) to assumed exercise proceeds and measured but unrecognized compensation.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019,2020, we recorded $1.4$1.5 million and $2.2$2.4 million, respectively, in compensation expense related to stock options, as compared to $3.5$1.4 million and $7.0$2.2 million for the same periods in 2018. Amounts for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 include $1.8 million and $3.6 million in connection with the acceleration of amortization on grants as discussed above.2019.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019, 105,0002020, 55,000 stock options were granted, 106,75527,500 options were exercised and 10,00024,000 options were forfeited. A total of 2,409,1672,343,167 stock options were outstanding at June 30, 2019 (2,420,9222020, (2,339,667 at December 31, 2018)2019) and have an average exercise price of $203.78.$200.48.
During the six months ended June 30, 2020, 740,000 stock options were awarded where vesting is dependent upon meeting certain performance targets with respect to 2020, 2021, and 2022. Because these targets are not expected to be met, these options are excluded from grants during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and from options outstanding at June 30, 2020. Compensation expense with respect to these 740,000 stock options represented a $0.2 million reduction for the three months ended June 30, 2020 (NaN for the six months ended June 30, 2020).

Restricted Share Units
RSUs generally vest over 5 to 8years from the grant date. The grantee receives dividends for each outstanding RSU equal to the per-share dividends received by our common shareholders. We expense any dividends previously paid upon forfeiture of the related RSU. Upon vesting, the grantee receives common shares equal to the number of vested RSUs, less common shares withheld in exchange for tax deposits made by the Company to satisfy the grantee’s statutory tax liabilities arising from the vesting.
The fair value of our RSUs is determined based upon the applicable closing trading price of our common shares.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019, 50,7752020, 15,910 RSUs were granted, 29,89219,180 RSUs were forfeited and 97,55680,559 RSUs vested. This vesting resulted in the issuance of 56,88752,803 common shares. In addition, tax deposits totaling $10.0$9.1 million ($10.310.0 million for the same period in 2018)2019) were made on behalf of employees in exchange for 40,66927,756 common shares withheld upon vesting. A total of 641,023535,321 RSUs were outstanding at June 30, 2019 (717,6962020 (619,150 at December 31, 2018)2019).
A total of $4.3$5.5 million and $11.1$11.2 million in RSU expense was recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019,2020, respectively, which includes approximately $0.1 million and $1.1 million, respectively in employer taxes

Amounts for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 include $6.0 million and $12.1 million, respectively, in connection with the acceleration of amortization on grants to our CEO and CFO as discussed above.
11.Segment Information
Our reportable segments reflect the significant components of our operations where discrete financial information is evaluated separately by our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). We organize our segments based primarily upon the nature of the underlying products and services, as well as the drivers of profitability growth. The net income for each reportable segment included in the tables below are in conformity with GAAP and our significant accounting policies as denoted in Note 2. The amounts not attributable to reportable segments are aggregated under “other items not allocated to segments.”
Following is a description of and basis for presentation for each of our reportable segments.
Self-Storage Operations
The Self-Storage Operations segment reflects the rental operations from all self-storage facilities we own. Our CODM reviews the net operating income (“NOI”) of this segment, which represents the related revenues less cost of operations (prior to depreciation expense), in assessing performance and making resource allocation decisions. The presentation in the tables below sets forth the NOI of this segment, as well as the depreciation expense for this segment, which while reviewed by our CODM and included in net income, is not considered by the CODM in assessing performance and decision making. For all periods presented, substantially all of our real estate facilities, goodwill and other intangible assets, other assets, and accrued and other liabilities are associated with the Self-Storage Operations segment.
Ancillary Operations
The Ancillary Operations segment reflects the sale of merchandise and reinsurance of policies against losses to goods stored by our self-storage tenants, activities which are incidental to our primary self-storage rental

activities. Our CODM reviews the NOI of these operations in assessing performance and making resource allocation decisions.
Investment in PSB
This segment represents our approximate 42% equity interest in PSB, a publicly-traded REIT that owns, operates, acquires and develops commercial properties, primarily multi-tenant flex, office, and industrial space. PSB has a separate management team and board of directors that makes its financing, capital allocation, and other significant decisions. In making resource allocation decisions with respect to our investment in PSB, the CODM reviews PSB’s net income, which is detailed in PSB’s periodic filings with the SEC. The segment presentation in the tables below includes our equity earnings from PSB.
Investment in Shurgard
This segment represents our approximate 35% equity interest in Shurgard, a publicly held company which owns and operates self-storage facilities located in seven7 countries in Western Europe. Shurgard has a separate management team and board of trustees that makes its financing, capital allocation, and other significant decisions. In making resource allocation decisions with respect to our investment in Shurgard, the CODM reviews Shurgard’s net income. The segment presentation below includes our equity earnings from Shurgard.

12.Commitments and Contingencies
Contingent Losses
We are a party to various legal proceedings and subject to various claims and complaints; however, we believe that the likelihood of these contingencies resulting in a material loss to the Company, either individually or in the aggregate, is remote.
Insurance and Loss Exposure
We carry property, earthquake, general liability, employee medical insurance and workers compensation coverage through internationally recognized insurance carriers, subject to deductibles. Our deductible for general
PUBLIC STORAGE
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2020
(Unaudited)
liability is $2.0 million per occurrence. Our annual deductible for property loss is $25.0 million per occurrence. This deductible decreases to $5.0 million once we reach $35.0 million in aggregate losses for occurrences that exceed $5.0 million. Insurance carriers’ aggregate limits on these policies of $75.0 million for property losses and $102.0 million for general liability losses are higher than estimates of maximum probable losses that could occur from individual catastrophic events determined in recent engineering and actuarial studies; however, in case of multiple catastrophic events, these limits could be exceeded.
We reinsure a program that provides insurance to our customers from an independent third-party insurer. This program covers customer claims for losses to goods stored at our facilities as a result of specific named perils (earthquakes are not covered by this program), up to a maximum limit of $5,000 per storage unit. We reinsure all risks in this program, but purchase insurance to cover this exposure for a limit of $15.0 million for losses in excess of $5.0 million per occurrence. We are subject to licensing requirements and regulations in several states. Customers participate in the program at their option. At June 30, 2019,2020, there were approximately 970,000998,000 certificates held by our self-storage customers, representing aggregate coverage of approximately $3.1$3.8 billion.
Construction Commitments
We have construction commitments representing future expected payments for construction under contract totaling $87.1$78.2 million at June 30, 2019.2020. We expect to pay approximately $45.2$38.2 million in the remainder of 2019 and $41.92020, $39.1 million in 20202021 and $0.9 million in 2022 for these construction commitments.
13.Subsequent Events
Subsequent to June 30, 2019,2020, we acquired or were under contract to acquire (subject to customary closing conditions) ten5 self-storage facilities with 815,000268,000 net rentable square feet, for $86.5$33.3 million.

Critical Accounting Policies
Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A&A”) discusses our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), and are affected by our judgments, assumptions and estimates. The notes to our June 30, 20192020 financial statements, primarily Note 2, summarize our significant accounting policies.
We believe the following are our critical accounting policies, because they have a material impact on the portrayal of our financial condition and results, and they require us to make judgments and estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain.
Income Tax Expense: We have elected to be treated as a REIT, as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). As a REIT, we do not incur federal income tax on our REIT taxable income that is fully distributed each year (for this purpose, certain distributions paid in a subsequent year may be considered), and if we meet certain organizational and operational rules. We believe we have met these REIT requirements for all periods presented herein. Accordingly, we have recorded no federal income tax expense related to our REIT taxable income.
Our evaluation that we have met the REIT requirements could be incorrect, because compliance with the tax rules requires factual determinations, and circumstances we have not identified could result in noncompliance with the tax requirements in current or prior years. For any taxable year that we fail to qualify as a REIT and for which applicable statutory relief provisions did not apply, we would be taxed at the regular corporate rates on all of our taxable income for at least that year and the ensuing four years, we could be subject to penalties and interest, and our net income would be materially different from the amounts estimated in our financial statements.
In addition, certain of our consolidated corporate subsidiaries have elected to be treated as “taxable REIT subsidiaries” for federal income tax purposes, which are taxable as regular corporations and subject to certain limitations on intercompany transactions. If tax authorities determine that amounts paid by our taxable REIT subsidiaries to us are not reasonable compared to similar arrangements among unrelated parties, we could be subject to a 100% penalty tax on the excess payments. Such a penalty tax could have a material adverse impact on our net income.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets: The analysis of impairment of our long-lived assets involves identification of indicators of impairment, projections of future operating cash flows, and estimates of fair values, all of which require significant judgment and subjectivity. Others could come to materially different conclusions. In addition, we may not have identified all current facts and circumstances that may affect impairment. Any unidentified impairment loss, or change in conclusions, could have a material adverse impact on our net income.
32
Accrual for Uncertain and Contingent Liabilities: We accrue for certain contingent and other liabilities that have significant uncertain elements, such as property taxes, workers compensation claims, tenant reinsurance claims, as well as other legal claims and disputes involving customers, employees, governmental agencies and other third parties. We estimate such liabilities based upon many factors such as assumptions of past and future trends and our evaluation of likely outcomes. However, the estimates of known liabilities could be incorrect or we may not be aware of all such liabilities, in which case our accrued liabilities and net income could be misstated.
AccountingAllocating Purchase Price for Acquired Real Estate Facilities: We estimate the fair values of the land buildings and intangible assets acquiredbuildings for purposes of allocating the aggregate purchase price. Such estimates are based upon many assumptionsprice of acquired properties. The related estimation processes involve significant judgment. We estimate the fair value of acquired buildings by determining the current cost to build new purpose-built self-storage facilities in the same location, and judgments, including (i) market rates of returnadjusting those costs for the actual age, quality, condition, amenities, and capitalization rates on real estate and intangible assets, (ii) building and material cost levels, (iii) comparisonsconfiguration of the buildings acquired. We estimate the fair value of acquired land by considering the most directly comparable recently transacted land sales (“Land Comps”) and adjusting the transacted values for differentials to the acquired land such as location quality, parcel size, and date of sale, in order to derive the estimated value of the underlying land parcelsacquired land. These adjustments to recent land transactions, and (iv) future cash flows from the real estate andLand Comps require significant judgment, particularly when there is a low volume of Land Comps or the existing tenant base.available Land Comps lack similarity to the acquired property in proximity, date of sale, or location quality. Others could come to materially different conclusions as to the estimated fair values, which would result in different depreciation and amortization expense, gains and losses on sale of real estate assets, as well as the level of land and real estate and intangible assets.buildings on our balance sheet.
Overview
Impact of COVID-19
During the three months ended June 30, 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic (the “COVID Pandemic”) has resulted in cessation, severe curtailment, or impairment of business activities in most sectors of the economy in virtually all markets we operate in, due to governmental “stay at home” orders, risk mitigation procedures, closure of businesses not considered to be “essential,” as well as other direct and indirect impacts, including a rapid and dramatic increase in unemployment in the U.S. While in certain markets, such as a number of Northeastern markets, initial government restrictions were eased in response to reductions in the rate of new infections, other markets, such as Florida and Texas, have experienced significant increases in the rate of infections and consequent increases in government restrictions, and a number of markets, such as California and Washington, are experiencing resurgences in rates of infection and are re-imposing government restrictions. These restrictions as well as public concerns about the virus continue to negatively impact the economy, with unemployment continuing to be at high levels. It is also possible that stricter government restrictions, including stay at home orders, could be instituted or reinstituted in the event of future waves of infection or if additional pandemics occur. We cannot estimate the extent of the COVID Pandemic’s future negative impacts.
Our self-storage facilities have been classified as “essential” businesses under all applicable business closure orders and thus remained open to all customer activity. Although our facilities remained open, the COVID Pandemic negatively impacted our operations in the three months ended June 30, 2020 due to curtailed rate increases on existing tenants, lower fee collections, a more challenging move-in environment and increased operating expenses, in particular property manager payroll expense.
We consider the safety of our employees and customers as our first priority, and have accordingly taken significant steps to ensure safety while keeping our services available to the public. These steps include initiating our touchless online leasing platform, enforcing social distancing requirements in our property offices and grounds, and providing protective equipment, including face coverings, gloves, and plastic barriers.
We believe that our operating results have been impacted negatively by the direct and indirect effects of the COVID Pandemic, as described more fully in “General Overview” below, as well as throughout our MD&A which follows.
General Overview
Our self-storage operations generate most of our net income, and we believe that our earnings growth is most impacted by the level of organic growth in our existing self-storage portfolio.portfolio, in particular, the growth in our Same Store facilities’ revenues. Accordingly, a significant portion of management’s time is devoted to maximizing cash flows from our existing self-storage facilities.
Most of our facilities compete with other well-managed and well-located competitors andwithin the local trade area, which is generally a three to five mile radius. In addition to local competition, we are subject to general economic conditions, particularly those that affect the spending habits of consumers and moving trends. We believe that our centralized information networks, our national telephone and online reservation system, the brand name “Public Storage,” and our economies of scale enable us to meet such challenges effectively.
In the last three years, there has been a marked increase in development of new self-storage facilities in many of the markets where we operate, in, due to the favorable economics of development which we have also taken advantage of.developing new properties. These newly developed facilities compete with many of the facilities we own, negatively impacting our occupancies, rental rates, and rental growth. ThisThese newly developed facilities generally represent “fifth generation” facilities which often have a more fresh and vibrant appearance, more amenities such as climate control, more attractive office configurations, newer design elements, and a more imposing and attractive retail presence as compared to the existing stock of self-storage facilities which were built over the last 50 years.
Our Same Store revenues declined 3.0% in the three months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019, due primarily to a 2.0% reduction in realized rent per foot and a 31.8% reduction in late fees and administrative charges.
The decline in realized rent per foot was attributable to a significant curtailment of our existing tenant rate increase program, and a 13.9% year-over-year reduction in rent per foot charged to new tenants moving in during the three months ended June 30, 2020. Our trends in realized rent per foot turned increasingly negative in the three months ended June 30, 2020, from a 0.9% year over year increase in supply has been most notable in Atlanta, Austin, Charlotte, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Houston, New York, and Portland.contract rent per occupied foot at March 31, 2020 to a 3.1% year over year decline at June 30, 2020.
WeWhile we have noted certain encouraging signs that, if they persist, may suggest improved storage demand, we believe that it is likely that our Same Store revenues in the last half of 2020 will decrease on a year-over-year basis at a rate higher than the year-over-year decrease in the three months ended June 30, 2020. See “Analysis of Same Store Revenues – Outlook” for further information on our revenue expectations.
In addition to managing our existing facilities for organic growth, we plan on growing organically as well as through the acquisition and development of new facilities and expanding our existing self-storage facilities. Since the beginning of 2013 through June 30, 2019,2020, we acquired a total of 318355 facilities with 22.124.9 million net rentable square feet from third parties for approximately $2.9$3.3 billion, and we opened newly developed and expanded self-storage space for a total cost of $1.5$1.7 billion, adding approximately 13.915.7 million net rentable square feet.
Subsequent to June 30, 2019, we acquired or were under contract to acquire (subject to customary closing conditions) ten self-storage facilities, with approximately 0.8 million net rentable square feet, for $86.5 million. We will continue to seek to acquire properties; however, there is significant competitionadditional self-storage facilities from third parties. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, third party acquisition volume slowed as third party sellers delayed the sale of their properties due to acquire existingeconomic uncertainty resulting from the COVID Pandemic. Seller inquiries have increased since June 30, 2020, with five properties under contract for an aggregate purchase price of $33.3 million, and negotiations under way on additional facilities. Volume later in 2020 could increase further if leveraged owners of recently developed facilities are forced to sell, the economy stabilizes and thereseller confidence returns, or additional owners are otherwise motivated to sell. There can be no assurance as to the level of facilities we may acquire.future acquisitions of facilities.
As ofAt June 30, 2019,2020, we had additionala development pipeline to develop ten new self-storage facilities and redevelopment projects to buildexpand 29 existing self-storage facilities, which will add approximately 3.8 million net rentable square feet at a total cost of approximately $520.5$556.2 million. The COVID Pandemic could delay the estimated timing of completion of our existing pipeline of development and expansion projects, because some jurisdictions may shut down or delay entitlement activities, and further “stay at home” orders, among other potential causes, could potentially delay construction activities. We expect to continue to seek additional development projects; however, the level of such activity may be limited duemonitor our projects to various constraints such as difficulty in finding available sites thatensure they still meet our risk-adjusted yield expectations,expectations. Given the impact of the COVID Pandemic on our operations, we determined to cease pursuit of several early stage development and expansion projects, and incurred $3.2 million in incremental general and administrative expense on the related cumulative costs incurred. See “self-storage operations – Developed Facilities” for further information on our development activities.
In order to enhance the competitive position of certain of our facilities relative to local competitors (including newly developed “fifth generation” facilities), we have commenced a comprehensive program to rebrand our properties, in order to develop more pronounced, attractive, and clearly identifiable color schemes and signage, as well as challengesto upgrade the configuration and layout of the offices and other customer zones to improve the customer experience. This program has initially been concentrated in obtaining building permits for self-storage activitiesproperties located in certain municipalities.
We believe that our developmenta limited number of markets. The extent to which we continue this program in additional markets, and redevelopment activities generate favorable risk-adjusted returns over the long run. However,relative scope of work, will depend in part upon the short run, our earnings are diluted duringresults of the construction and stabilization period due toinitial implementation of the program. The cost of capital to fund the development cost, as well as the related construction and development overhead expensesthis program is included in general and administrative expense. We believe the level of dilution incurred in the first six months of 2019 will continue at similar levels in the remainder of 2019.

Results of Operations
Operating Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 20192020
For the three months ended June 30, 2019,2020, net income allocable to our common shareholders was $246.1 million or $1.41 per diluted common share, compared to $306.4 million or $1.76 per diluted common share compared to $348.3 million or $2.00 per diluted common share in 20182019 representing a decrease of $41.9$60.3 million or $0.24$0.35 per diluted common share. The decrease is due primarily to (i) a $27.2$22.5 million decrease in self-storage net operating income (described below), (ii) a $14.1 million decrease due to the impact of foreign currency exchange gains and losses associated with our euroEuro denominated debt, (ii) our $24.0 million equity share of a gain on sale of assets recorded by PS Business Parks in the three months ended June 30, 2018, and (iii) an $8.9 million allocation to our preferred shareholders associated with our preferred share redemption activities in the three months ended June 30, 2019. These decreases were offset partially by (iv) a $7.9$10.8 million increase in self-storage net operating income (described below),depreciation and (v) a reduction in general and administrative expense attributable to $7.8 million in incremental share-based compensation expense in the three months ended June 30, 2018 for the planned retirement of our former CEO and CFO.amortization expense.
The $7.9$22.5 million increasedecrease in self-storage net operating income is a result of a $3.4$30.2 million increasedecrease in our Same Store Facilities (as defined below) and, offset by a $4.5$7.6 million increase in our Non Samenon-Same Store Facilities (as defined below). Revenues for the Same Store Facilities decreased 3.0% or $18.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to 2019, due primarily to lower realized annual rent per occupied square foot and reduced late charges and administrative fees. Cost of operations for the Same Store Facilities increased 1.9%by 6.7% or $11.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 20192020 as compared to 2018,2019, due primarily to higher realized annual rent per occupied square foot. Cost of operations for the Same Store Facilities increased by 5.1% or $8.1 milliona 20.7% ($6.4 million) increase in the three months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to 2018, due primarily to increasedon-site property taxesmanager payroll and higher36.9% ($4.6 million) increase in marketing expenses. The increase in net operating income of $4.5$7.6 million for the Non Samenon-Same Store Facilities is due primarily to the impact of facilities acquired in 20182019 and 20192020 and the fill-up of recently developed and expanded facilities.
Operating Results for the Six Months Ended June 30, 20192020
For the six months ended June 30, 2019,2020, net income allocable to our common shareholders was $559.3 million or $3.20 per diluted common share, compared to $608.2 million or $3.49 per diluted common share compared to $636.1 million or $3.65 per diluted common share in 20182019 representing a decrease of $27.9$48.9 million or $0.16$0.29 per diluted common share. The decrease is due primarily to (i) a $13.0 million decrease in self-storage net operating income (described below), (ii) a $12.9 million decrease due to the impact of foreign currency exchange gains and losses associated with our $34.9Euro denominated debt, and (iii) a $24.7 million equity shareincrease in depreciation and amortization expense.
The $13.0 million decrease in self-storage net operating income is a result of gains recordeda $29.9 million decrease in our Same Store Facilities (as defined below), offset by PS Business Parksa $16.9 million increase in our non-Same Store Facilities (as defined below). Revenues for the Same Store Facilities decreased 0.9% or $11.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018, (ii)2020 as compared to 2019, due primarily to reduced late charges and administrative fees. Cost of operations for the Same Store Facilities increased by 5.3% or $18.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to 2019, due primarily to a 46.1% ($9.9 million) increase in marketing expenses and a 12.0% ($7.4 million) increase in on-site property manager payroll expense. The increase in net operating income of $16.9 million for the non-Same Store Facilities is due primarily to the impact of facilities acquired in 2019 and 2020 and the fill-up of recently developed and expanded facilities.
$17.4 million allocation to our preferred shareholders associated with our preferred share redemption activities in the six months ended June 30, 2019 and (iii) a $7.6 million decrease due to the impact of foreign currency exchange gains associated with our euro denominated debt. These decreases were offset partially by (iv) a $15.3 million increase in self-storage net operating income (described below) and (v) a reduction in general and administrative expense attributable to $15.6 million in incremental share-based compensation expense in the six months ended June 30, 2018 for the planned retirement of our former CEO and CFO.
The $15.3 million increase in self-storage net operating income is a result of a $5.7 million increase in our Same Store Facilities and a $9.6 million increase in our Non Same Store Facilities. Revenues for the Same Store Facilities increased 1.7% or $20.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to 2018, due primarily to higher realized annual rent per occupied square foot. Cost of operations for the Same Store Facilities increased by 4.5% or $14.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to 2018, due primarily to increased property taxes and higher marketing expenses. The increase in net operating income of $9.6 million for the Non Same Store Facilities is due primarily to the impact of facilities acquired in 2018 and 2019 and the fill-up of recently developed and expanded facilities.
Funds from Operations and Core Funds from Operations
Funds from Operations (“FFO”) and FFO per share are non-GAAP measures defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts and are considered helpful measures of REIT performance by REITs and many REIT analysts. FFO represents GAAP net income before depreciation and amortization, which is excluded because it is based upon historical costs and assumes that building values diminish ratably over time, while we believe that real estate values fluctuate due to market conditions. FFO also excludes gains or losses on sale of real estate assets and real estate impairment charges, which are also based upon historical costs and are impacted by historical depreciation. FFO and FFO per share are not a substitute for net income or earnings per share. FFO is not a substitute for GAAP net cash flow in evaluating our liquidity or ability to pay dividends, because it excludes investing and financing activities presented on our statements of cash flows. In addition, other REITs may compute these measures differently, so comparisons among REITs may not be helpful.
For the three months ended June 30, 2019,2020, FFO was $2.57$2.28 per diluted common share, as compared to $2.65$2.57 per diluted common share for the same period in 2018,2019, representing a decrease of 3.0%11.3%, or $0.08$0.29 per diluted common share.
For the six months ended June 30, 2019,2020, FFO was $5.09$4.90 per diluted common share, as compared to $5.02$5.09 per diluted common share for the same period in 2018,2019, representing an increasea decrease of 1.4%3.7%, or $0.07$0.19 per diluted common share.

We also present “Core FFO per share,” a non-GAAP measure that represents FFO per share excluding the impact of (i) foreign currency exchange gains and losses, (ii) EITF D-42 charges related to the redemption of preferred securities, (iii) acceleration of accruals or reduction of accruals due to the departure of senior executives, and (iv)(iii) certain other non-cash and/or nonrecurring income or expense items.items primarily representing, with respect to the periods presented below, the impact of casualties, due diligence costs incurred in strategic transactions, and contingency resolutions. We review Core FFO per share to evaluate our ongoing operating performance and we believe it is used by investors and REIT analysts in a similar manner. However, Core FFO per share is not a substitute for net income per share. Because other REITs may not compute Core FFO per share in the same manner as we do, may not use the same terminology or may not present such a measure, Core FFO per share may not be comparable among REITs.

Analysis of Net Income by Reportable Segment
The following discussion and analysis is presented and organized in accordance with Note 11 to our June 30, 20192020 financial statements, “Segment Information.” Accordingly, refer to the tablestable presented in Note 11 in order to reconcile such amounts to our total net income and for further information on our reportable segments.
Self-Storage Operations
Our self-storage operations are analyzed in four groups: (i) the 2,1652,224 facilities that we have owned and operated on a stabilized basis since January 1, 20172018 (the “Same Store Facilities”), (ii) 8184 facilities we acquired after December 31, 20162017 (the “Acquired facilities”), (iii) 138147 facilities that have been newly developed or expanded, or that we are in the process of expanding or that we expect to commence expansion by December 31, 20192020 (the “Newly developed and expanded facilities”) and (iv) 7245 other facilities, which are otherwise not stabilized with respect to occupancies or rental rates since January 1, 20172018 (the “Other non-same store facilities”). See Note 11 to our June 30, 20192020 financial statements “Segment Information,” for a reconciliation of the amounts in the tables below to our total net income.

(a)Net operating income or “NOI” is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact of depreciation and amortization expense, which is based upon historical real estate costs and assumes that building values diminish ratably over time, while we believe that real estate values fluctuate due to market conditions. We utilize NOI in determining current property values, evaluating property performance, and in evaluating property operating trends. We believe that investors and analysts utilize NOI in a similar manner. NOI is not a substitute for net income, operating cash flow, or other related GAAP financial measures, in evaluating our operating results. See Note 11 to our June 30, 20192020 financial statements for a reconciliation of NOI to our total net income for all periods presented.
Net operating income from our self-storage operations has increased 1.7%decreased 4.8% and 1.4% in each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2019,2020, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2018. These increases are2019. The decrease is due primarily to increased revenues in ourreduced Same Store Facilities, as well asrevenues and increased Same Store expenses, offset partially by the acquisition and development of new facilities and the fill-up of unstabilized facilities.
Same Store Facilities
The Same Store Facilities represent the 2,165consist of facilities that have been owned and operated aton a stabilized level of occupancy, revenues and cost of operations since January 1, 2017. Accordingly, our Same Store Facilities exclude (i) facilities acquired after December 31, 2016, (ii) newly developed or expanded facilities, (iii) facilities where expansion is under construction or that we expect to commence by December 31, 2019, (iv) facilities whose operating trends are significantly affected by factors such as casualty events, and (v) facilities which were otherwise not stabilized at December 31, 2016 (such as recently developed facilities acquired from third parties before December 31, 2016).2018. The composition of our Same Store Facilities allows us to more effectively evaluate the ongoing performance of our self-storage portfolio in 2017, 2018, 2019, and 20192020 and exclude the impact of fill-up of unstabilized facilities, which can significantly affect operating trends. We believe the Same Store information is used by investors and REIT analysts in a similar manner.
The following table summarizes the historical operating results of these 2,1652,224 facilities (139.8(143.9 million net rentable square feet) that represent approximately 84% of the aggregate net rentable square feet of our U.S. consolidated self-storage portfolio at June 30, 2019.2020.

(b)Realized annual rent per occupied square foot is computed by dividing rental income, before late charges and administrative fees, by the weighted average occupied square feet for the period. Realized annual rent per available square foot (“REVPAF”) is computed by dividing rental income, before late charges and administrative fees, by the total available net rentable square feet for the period. These measures exclude late charges and administrative fees in order to provide a better measure of our ongoing level of revenue. Late charges are dependent upon the level of delinquency and administrative fees are dependent upon the level of move-ins. In addition, the rates charged for late charges and administrative fees can vary independently from rental rates. These measures take into consideration promotional discounts, which reduce rental income.

(c)Annual contract rent represents the agreed upon monthly rate that is paid by our tenants in place at the time of measurement. Contract rates are initially set in the lease agreement upon move-in and we adjust them from time to time with notice. Contract rent excludes other fees that are charged on a per-item basis, such as late charges and administrative fees, does not reflect the impact of promotional discounts, and does not reflect the impact of rents that are written off as uncollectible.
Analysis of Same Store Revenue
Revenues generated by our Same Store Facilities increaseddecreased by 1.9%3.0% and 1.7%0.9% in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019,2020, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2018,2019. These decreases were due to (i) a 1.8% and 0.2% decrease in rental income for the three and six months, respectively, due primarily to increases of 1.7% and 1.5%a reduction in realized annual rent per occupied square foot, and (ii) a 31.8% and 17.5% reduction in late fees and administrative charges collected for the three and six months, ended June 30, 2019, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2018.respectively.
Same Store revenue growth is lower than long-term historical averages due to softness in demand for our storage space, which has led to lower move-in rental rates for new tenants (see below). We attribute some of this softness to local economic conditions and, in some markets most notably Atlanta, Austin, Charlotte, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Houston, New York and Portland, increased supply of newly constructed self-storage facilities.
Same Store weighted average square foot occupancy remained strong at 94.0% and 93.2% in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, as compared to 93.8% and 93.0% for the same periods in 2018.Revenue Strategy
We believe that high occupancies of at least 90% help maximize our rental income. We seek to maintainincome and, as a weighted average square foot occupancy level of at least 90%, byresult we regularly adjustingadjust the rental rates and promotionspromotional discounts offered to attract new tenants(generally, “$1.00 rent for the first month”), as well as adjusting our marketing efforts on the Internet and other channels in order to generate sufficient move-in volume to replace tenants that vacate.
Annual contract rent per foot for customers moving in was $13.81 and $14.38 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and the related square footage for the space they moved into was 28.1 million for each period. Annual contract rent per foot for customers moving out was $16.06 and $16.08 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and the related square footage for the space they moved out of was 25.4 million and 25.8 million, respectively.
Annual contract rent per foot for customers moving in was $13.71 and $14.08 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and the related square footage for the space they moved into was 52.4 million and 53.0 million, respectively. Annual contract rent per foot for customers moving out was $16.04 for each of the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, and the related square footage for the space they moved out of was 48.5 million and 49.5 million, respectively.
In order to stimulate move-in volume, we often give promotional discounts, generally in the form of a “$1.00 rent for the first month” offer. Promotional discounts, based upon the move-in contractual rates for the related promotional period, totaled $19.6 million and $39.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, as compared to $21.0 million and $41.8 million for the same periods in 2018. The decline in promotional discounts is due primarily to a lower volume of move-ins combined with lower average move-in rates.
Demand is higher in the summer months than in the winter months and, as a result, rental rates charged to new tenants areWe typically higher in the summer months than in the winter months. Demand fluctuates due to various local and regional factors, including the overall economy. Demand into our system is also impacted by new supply of self-storage space as well as alternatives to self-storage.
We increase rental rates to our long-term tenants (generally, those that have been with us for at least a year) generally once per year. As a result, the number of long-term tenants we have in our facilities is an important factor in our revenue growth. The level of rate increases to long-term tenants is based upon balancing the additional revenue from the increase against the negative impact of incremental move-outs.move-outs, by considering the customer’s in-place rent and prevailing market rents, among other factors. Most of our revenue growth in the last few years has come primarily from existing tenant rate increases.
Realized Annual Rent per Occupied Square Foot
Realized annual rent per occupied square foot decreased 0.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019. On a quarterly basis, realized annual rent per occupied square foot increased 0.8% in the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019, and turned increasingly negative during the three months ended June 30, 2020, decreasing 2.0% as compared to the same period in 2019. At June 30, 2020, contract rent per occupied square foot was 3.1% lower than at June 30, 2019, as compared to a 0.9% increase at March 31, 2020 as compared to March 31, 2019.
The reduction in realized annual rent per occupied square foot during the three and six month periods in 2020 compared to the same periods in 2019, and the change from an 0.9% year-over-year increase in contract rent per occupied square foot at March 31, 2020 to a 3.1% reduction at June 30, 2020, were primarily due to two factors: (i) a year-over-year reduction in market rental rates charged to new tenants and (ii) conservative rate increases to existing long-term tenants.
The year-over-year reduction in market rental rates charged to new tenants was due to our response to softening demand caused by (i) the negative economic impact caused by the COVID Pandemic which has affected all our markets and (ii) increased supply of newly constructed facilities, most notably in markets such as Atlanta, Austin, Charlotte, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Houston, Miami, Minneapolis, New York and Portland. To offset softness in
demand, we significantly reduced move-in rental rates and, as a result, rental rates for tenants moving in were 13.9% and 9.2% lower in the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, as compared to the same periods last year. We believe such action, in part, helped maintain our occupancy levels. With respect to being conservative on rate increases to existing longer term tenants, this was a decision predicated primarily on our anticipation of a negative economic impact on our tenants.
Throughout 20182019 and the first six months of 2019,2020, we have had an increased average length of stay and fewer move-outs. Thestay. Until the quarter ended June 30, 2020 when we significantly curtailed rent increases, the increased average length of stay contributed to an increased beneficial effect of rent increases to existing tenants, due to more long-term customers who were eligible for rate increases.
Occupancy Levels
We maintained our occupancy levels at 94.2% and 94.0% during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, despite a significant reduction in demand, we believe, from the impact of the COVID Pandemic. Reduced demand was mitigated by (i) the aforementioned 13.9% reduction in rates charged to new tenants, (ii) an 8.7% reduction in move-outs during the three months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019, and (iii) an increase in marketing spend as noted below.
Demand historically has been higher in the summer months than in the winter months and, as a result, rental rates charged to new tenants have typically been higher in the summer months than in the winter months. Demand fluctuates due to various local and regional factors, including the overall economy. Demand into our system is also impacted by new supply of self-storage space as well as alternatives to self-storage.
Late Charges and Administrative Fees
We experienced a 31.8% and 17.5% reduction in late fees and administrative fees collected during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the same periods in 2019. This decrease was due to the following factors in the three months ended June 30, 2020: (i) reduced late fees charged due to an acceleration in average collections relative to the late fee date, (ii) an increase in customer concessions, (iii) a reduction in lien fees collected due to the suspension and delay of auctions, and to a lesser extent, (iv) reduced move-in administrative fees due to lower move-ins.
Bad Debt and Collection Losses
Our ability to collect customer rent was challenged in the three months ended June 30, 2020 by the COVID Pandemic due to (i) consumer stress resulting from unemployment, furloughs, and reduced small business activity, (ii) the temporary delay of auctions due to logistical difficulties or governmental restrictions, and (iii) temporary closures of venues that auction bidders typically used to resell their goods. Nonetheless, we did not experience a significant increase in bad debt from historical levels, because we believe the federal government stimulus and supplements to unemployment benefits mitigated consumer stress, and we took certain steps to augment our collection efforts and accelerate payment by our customers.

Revenue Outlook
The timing of any improvement in revenue trends and a return to revenue growth is dependent upon the extent to which these positive trends will continuewe can increase existing tenant rates and new tenant move-in rental rates, which in 2019 is uncertain at this time.turn are dependent upon factors such as storage demand and customer behavior, which are outside of our control and difficult to predict, particularly given the COVID Pandemic.
We believeBeginning partway through the second quarter and continuing subsequent to June 30, 2020, we have noted encouraging signs that, if they persist, may suggest improved storage demand and a gradual improvement in rental revenue growthrate trends in the remainder of 2019 will come primarily from continued annual rent increases to existing tenants. Our future rental growth will also be dependent upon many factors for each market that we operate in,medium term, including demand for self-storage space,(i) year-over-year occupancy levels have increased, (ii) the level of new supply of self-storage spacemove-in rental rate decreases have moderated and the average length of stay of our tenants.(iii) move out rates continue to remain low.
As noted above, we significantly curtailed existing tenant rate increases during the three months ended June 30, 2020. We have recently begun reinstituting modest existing tenant rate increases. We will seek to cautiously, over time, increase the level of existing tenant rate increases to historical averages, while monitoring customer sensitivity to rate increases during the current recessionary environment.
As noted above, we did not experience an expected increase in bad debt losses; however, we still believe it is reasonably likely that bad debt losses will increase as extended unemployment benefits end or due to other factors.
While late charges and administrative fees represent only approximately 4% of nominal revenues, as noted above, they contributed nearly half the revenue decrease in the three months ended June 30, 2020. We believe that a significant portion of the current trendsdecrease is due to short-term factors such as reduced move-ins affecting administrative fees, and increased customer concessions with respect to late fees and auction lien fees charged. In addition, certain measures we took which accelerated rent collections, also reduced the level of late fees charged. To the extent that we maintain those measures, late fees charged could be impacted.
Despite the encouraging signs noted above, when considering the 3.1% year-over-year reduction in move-in, move-out,in-place contractual rent per occupied foot at June 30, 2020 as compared to June 30, 2019, the potential persistence of decreases in place contractual rentslate charges and occupancy levels are consistent with continued moderateadministrative fees, as well as the various factors noted above, we believe that it is likely that our total revenue growth(inclusive of late fees and administrative fees) in the remainderlast half of 2019. However, there2020 will decrease on a year-over-year basis at a rate that is higher than the year-over-year decrease in the three months ended June 30, 2020. There can be no assurance of continuedhow quickly we can return to revenue growth becauseafter 2020.
Notwithstanding our expectations, we are in a time of significant uncertainty, and there are reasonably possible circumstances and events which could result in actual future revenues being significantly lower than our expectations, including the following:
Storage demand could decline due to increased recessionary circumstances, worsening of the COVID Pandemic, or other factors.
The recent trend of year over year declines in move-outs could reverse to the extent it was driven by temporary factors such as stay-at-home orders, delays in our auction process, customer caution about exposure to virus risk, or our curtailment of existing tenant rate increases. If move-outs were to increase, particularly with respect to long-term customers at higher rates as we have seen in previous recessionary circumstances, we could experience a more pronounced level of reduction in realized rent per occupied square foot.
It is possible that the COVID Pandemic could impact current seasonal demand trends when viewed in the short-run, are volatile and not necessarily predictive of our revenues going forward because they are subjectshort or long term, due to manychanges in certain factors which cannot be predicted,impacting moving trends, such as potentially fewer college students living on-campus in favor of online learning or an increase in working from home reducing the levelnecessity of consumer demand and competition from newly developed and existing facilities.

Analysis of Same Store Cost of Operations
Cost of operations (excluding depreciation and amortization) increased 5.1%6.7% and 4.5%5.3% in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019,2020, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2018,2019, due primarily to increased on-site property manager payroll, property tax and marketing expense.
Property tax expense increased 5.0%3.6% and 5.0%4.3% in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019,2020, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2018.2019. We expect property tax expense growth of approximately 5.0%3.5% in the remainder of 20192020 due primarily to higher assessed values (excluding the potential impact of the California initiative noted below) and, to a lesser extent, increased tax rates.
As a result of Proposition 13, which limits increases in assessed values to 2% per year, the assessed value and property taxes we pay in California is less than it would be if the properties were assessed at current values. An initiative on California’s November 2020 statewide ballot, if approved by voters, could result in the reassessment of our California properties and substantially increase our property tax expense. It is uncertain (i) whether an initiative will pass, and (ii) if it does pass, what the timing and level of the reassessment and related property tax increases would be. See “Risk Factors – We have exposure to increased property tax in California” in our December 31, 2019 Form 10-K for further information such as our aggregate net operating income and property tax expense in California.
On-site property manager payroll expense increased 2.8%20.7% and 1.3%12.0% in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019,2020, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2018,2019. The significant increase in the three and six months is due primarily to highera temporary $3.00 hourly wage rates offset partially by lower hours incurred.increase, and enhancement of paid time off benefits, to virtually all of our property managers to enable them to keep working, which began April 1, 2020 and ended June 30, 2020. While these measures could be re-instituted if necessary, we currently have no plans to do so. We expect continued inflationary increases in on-site property manager payroll expense to increase on an inflationary basis in the remainderlast six months of 2019. We have been impacted by a tight labor market across2020 as compared to the country, as well as increasessame period in minimum wages in certain jurisdictions, and expect additional impacts in the remainder of 2019 as existing minimum wage increases become effective and new increases are enacted.2019.
Supervisory payroll expense, which represents compensation paid to the management personnel who directly and indirectly supervise the on-site property managers, increased 1.1%6.1% and decreased 1.2%6.8% in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019,2020, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2018,2019, due primarily to changes in headcount.increased headcount and higher wages. We expect inflationarysimilar increases in wage rates and increased headcount in the remainder of 2019.2020.
Repairs and maintenance expense decreased 3.3%6.3% and increased 3.4%8.2% in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019,2020, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2018.2019. Repair and maintenance costs include snow removal expense totaling $0.3$0.1 million and $3.1$2.0 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019,2020, respectively, as compared to $0.7$0.3 million and $2.9$3.2 million forin the same periods in 2018.2019.

Repairs and maintenance expense levels are dependent upon many factors such as (i) sporadic occurrences such as accidents, damage, and equipment malfunctions, (ii) short-term local supply and demand factors for material and labor, and (iii) weather conditions, which can impact repair and maintenance needs includingcosts such as snow removal, inflation in materialroof repairs, and labor costs,HVAC maintenance and random events.repairs. Accordingly, it is difficult to estimate future repairs and maintenance expense.
Our utility expenses are comprised primarily of electricity costs, which are dependent upon energy prices and usage levels. Changes in usage levels are driven primarily by weather and temperature. Utility expense decreased 4.7%8.0% and 4.3%7.8% in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019,2020, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2018, due primarily to reduced usage attributable to unseasonably mild weather conditions in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. It is difficult to estimate future utility costs, because weather, temperature, and energy prices are volatile and not predictable.

We are making investments in energy saving technology such as solar power and LED lights which generate favorable returns on investment in the form of lower utility usage. We expect continued modest reductions in the remainder of 2020, based upon the expected level of and timing of such investments.
Marketing expense is comprised principally of Internet advertising, television advertising, and the operating costs of our telephone reservation center. Internet advertising expense, comprised primarily of keyword search fees assessed on a “per click” basis, varies based upon demand for self-storage space, the quantity of people inquiring about self-storage through online search, occupancy levels, the number and aggressiveness of bidding competitors and other factors. These factors are volatile; accordingly, Internet advertising can increase or decrease significantly in the short-term. Marketing expense increased 49.4%36.9% and 39.4%46.1% in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019,2020, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2018,2019. These increases are due primarily to increases in Internethigher traditional “per click” advertising expense. We expect similar continued increases in Internet advertising expense in the remainder of 2019on paid search platforms as we seekhave sought to captureattract more customers for our space, and as cost per click for keyword search terms increasesincreased due to more aggressive keyword bidding competition from existing self-storage owners and operators, including owners of newly developed facilities and nontraditional storage providers,providers. To a lesser extent, the increases reflects additional spending on social media outlets as well as existing self-storage owners and operators.aggregator websites, as we believe these channels provide exposure to incremental customers at a favorable cost. We expect continued increases in marketing expense in the remainder of 2020.
Other direct property costs include administrative expenses incurred at thespecific to each self-storage facilities,facility, such as property insurance, telephone and data communication lines, business license costs, bank charges related to processing the facilities’ cash receipts, tenant mailings, credit card fees, and the cost of operating each property’s rental office.

We continue to experience increased credit card fees asdue to a resultlong-term trend of a higher proportionmore customers paying with credit cards rather than cash, checks, or other methods of our revenues being collected through credit cards.payment with lower transaction costs. We expect inflationary increases in other direct property costs in the remainder of 2019.2020.
Allocated overhead represents administrative expenses for shared general corporate functions to the extent their efforts are devoted to self-storage operations. Such functions include information technology human resources,support, hardware, and software, as well as centralized administration of payroll, benefits, training, repairs and maintenance, customer service, pricing and marketing, operational accounting and finance, marketing,and legal andcosts. These amounts also include the costs of senior executives responsible for these processes (other than our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, which are included in general and administrative expense). Allocated overhead decreased 0.3%7.6% and increased 1.1%6.7% in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019,2020, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2018.2019, due primarily to reduced headcount, reduced travel expenses, and the impact of an annual national leadership and sales conference which occurred in the three months ended March 31, 2019 but is not expected to occur in 2020. We expect minimal increases in allocated overhead in the remainder of 2019.2020.

The declining Same Store revenue trends noted above affected nearly all of our markets. We believe that our geographic diversification and scale provideacross substantially all major metropolitan markets in the U.S. provides some insulation from localized economic effects and add toenhances the stability of our cash flows. It is difficult to predict localized trends in short-term self-storage demand and operating results. Over the long run, we believe that markets that experience population growth, high employment, and otherwise exhibit economic strength and consistency will outperform markets that do not exhibit these characteristics.
Acquired Facilities
The Acquired Facilities represent 8184 facilities that we acquired in 2017, 2018, 2019, and the first six months of 2019.2020. As a result of the stabilization process and timing of when these facilities were acquired, year-over-year changes can be significant.

(a)Represents the percentage change with respect to square foot occupancy and annual contract rent per occupied square foot, and the absolute nominal change with respect to all other items.
(b)Revenues and cost of operations do not include tenant reinsurance and merchandise sale revenues and expenses generated at the facilities. See “Ancillary Operations” below for more information.
(c)Acquisition costs includes (i) $149.8 million paid for 22 facilities acquired from third parties, (ii) $135.5 million cash paid for the remaining 74.25% interest we did not own in 12 stabilized properties owned by a legacy institutional partnership and (iii) the $6.3 million historical book value of our existing investment in the legacy institutional partnership.
We believe that our managementeconomies of scale in marketing and operating infrastructureoperations allows us to generate higher net operating income from newly acquired facilities than was achieved by the previous owners. However, it can take 24 or more months for us to fully achieve the higher net operating income and the ultimate levels of net operating income to be achieved can be affected by changes in general economic conditions. As a result, there can be no assurance that we will achieve our expectations with respect to these newly acquired facilities.
The facilities included above under “2017 acquisitions,” “2018 acquisitions,” and “2019 acquisitions”Acquired Facilities have an aggregate of approximately 5.36.0 million net rentable square feet, including 0.70.8 million in each of Texas and Virginia, 0.5 million in each of Florida and Texas, 0.4 million in each of Georgia, Indiana, Minnesota, Nebraska and Ohio, 0.3 million in each of Nebraska and Ohio, 0.2 million in each of California, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, New York, North Carolina andMassachusetts, South Carolina and 0.9Tennessee and 1.0 million in other states.
For the six months ended June 30, 2019,2020, the weighted average annualized yield on cost, based upon net operating income, for (i) the 22 facilities acquired in 2017 from third parties was 5.8%, (ii) the 12 stabilized facilities owned by a legacy institutional partnership, with respect to the 74.25% interest we acquired was 6.0%, and (iii) the 25 propertiesfacilities acquired in 2018 was 4.0%5.0%. The yield for the facilities acquired in the six months ended June 30, 2020 is not meaningful due to our limited ownership period, and the yield for the facilities acquired in 2019 is not meaningful due to our limited ownership period.the presence of unstabilized facilities.
SubsequentWe continue to seek to acquire additional self-storage facilities from third parties. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we acquired or were2020, third party acquisition volume slowed as third party sellers delayed the sale of their properties due to economic uncertainty resulting from the COVID Pandemic. Seller inquiries have increased since June 30, 2020, with five properties under contract for an aggregate purchase price of $33.3 million, and negotiations under way on additional facilities. Volume later in 2020 could increase further if leveraged owners of recently developed facilities are forced to acquire ten self-storage facilities (two each in Georgiasell, the economy stabilizes and Texas and one each in Florida, Indiana, Minnesota, North Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia) with 0.8 net rentable square feet for $86.5 million.seller confidence returns, or additional owners are otherwise motivated to sell. There can be no assurance as to the level of future acquisitions of facilities.
Analysis of Depreciation and Amortization of Acquired Facilities
Depreciation and amortization with respect to the Acquired Facilities for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 and 2018 totaled $8.6$9.8 million and $5.2$5.9 million, respectively, and $15.4$19.3 million and $11.0$9.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 20192020 and 2018,2019, respectively. These amounts include (i) depreciation of the acquired buildings, which is recorded generally on a straight line basis over a 25 year period, and (ii) amortization of cost allocated to the tenants in place upon acquisition of a facility, which is recorded based upon the benefit of such existing tenants to each period and thus is highest when the facility is first acquired and declines as such tenants vacate. With respect to the Acquired Facilities owned at June 30, 2019,2020, depreciation of buildings and amortization of tenant intangibles is expected to aggregate approximately $30.5$35.9 million in the year ending December 31, 2019.2020. There will be additional depreciation and amortization of tenant intangibles with respect to new buildings that are acquired in the remainder of 2019.2020.
Developed and Expanded Facilities
The developed and expanded facilities include 76 facilities that were developed on new sites since January 1, 2013,2015, and 6271 facilities subject to expansion of their net rentable square footage. Of these expansions, 40 are20 were completed at January 1, 2019, 32 were completed in the 18 months ended June 30, 20192020, and 2219 are currently in process or are expected to commence renovation in 2019.

(b)Revenues and cost of operations do not include tenant reinsurance and merchandise sale revenues and expenses generated at the facilities. See “Ancillary Operations” below for more information.
(c)The facilities included above have an aggregate of approximately 15.617.2 million net rentable square feet at June 30, 2019,2020, including 6.5 million in Texas, 2.4 million in California, 1.72.0 million in Florida, 1.31.5 million in Colorado, 0.61.1 million in Minnesota, 0.8 million in North Carolina, 0.40.7 million in Washington, 0.3 million in each of Arizona, MinnesotaGeorgia, Michigan and Washington,South Carolina and 1.91.0 million in other states.
(d)These amounts only include the direct cost incurred to expand and renovate these facilities, and do not include (i) the original cost to develop or acquire the facility or (ii) the lost revenue on space demolished during the construction and fill-up period.
(e)We expect to add 2.7 million net rentable square feet to these facilities at an aggregate cost of approximately $331.6 million, not including (i) the original cost to develop or acquire the facility or (ii) the lost revenue on space demolished during the construction and fill-up period.
It typically takes at least three to four years for a newly developed or expanded self-storage facility to stabilize with respect to revenues. Physical occupancy can be achieved as early as two to three years following completion of the development or expansion, through offering lower rental rates during fill-up. As a result, even after achieving high occupancy, there can still be a period of elevated revenue growth as the tenant base matures and higher rental rates are achieved. Our
We believe that our development and redevelopment activities generate favorable risk-adjusted returns over the long run. However, in the short run, our earnings are diluted during the construction and stabilization period due to the cost of capital to fund the development cost, as well as the related construction and development overhead expenses included in general and
administrative expense. We believe the level of dilution incurred in 2019 and the first two quarters of 2020 will continue at similar levels for the remainder of 2020.

administrative expense. Despite this short-term dilution, we believe thatThe COVID Pandemic could delay the estimated timing of completion of our existing pipeline of development and expansion projects, because some jurisdictions may shut down or delay entitlement activities, generate favorableand further “stay at home” orders could potentially delay construction activities. In addition, the COVID Pandemic could extend the timeframe for a newly developed facility to reach stabilized occupancies and cash flows. We continue to monitor our projects to ensure that they still meet our risk-adjusted returns overyield expectations, and reduced project yield estimates due to the long run.COVID Pandemic or other factors could result in the cancellation of existing projects in the future, or we may not pursue certain new projects that we would have otherwise sought. Given the impact of the COVID Pandemic on our operations, we determined to cease pursuit of several early stage development and expansion projects, and incurred $3.2 million in incremental general and administrative expense on the related cumulative costs incurred.
Newly Developed Facilities
The facilities included under “Developed in 2013-2015” were opened in 2013, 2014, and 2015, and we believe they have reached stabilization2015” had high occupancies at December 31, 2018, but had 4.4% year over year revenue growth during the six months ended June 30, 2019.2020 which exceeds the 0.9% reduction in year over year revenue growth in the Same Store facilities. This outperformance relative to the Same Store Facilities reflects the maturity of the existing tenant base following attainment of high occupancy, illustrating the latter stage of the stabilization process noted above. The annualized yield on cost for these facilities, based upon the net operating income for the six months ended June 30, 20192020, was 10.1%9.9%.
The facilities included under “Developed in 2016 and 2017”- 2018” and “Developed in 2018 and 2019” are not stabilized with respectcontinue to be, on average, in the occupancy or revenues at June 30, 2019, and westabilization phase. We expect continued growth in these facilities throughout 2019the remainder of 2020 and beyond as they continue to stabilize. The annualized yields that may be achieved on these facilities upon stabilization will depend on many factors, including local and current market conditions in the vicinity of each property, such as consumer demand and the level of new and existing supply. Accordingly,supply, as well as the 10.1%impact of the COVID Pandemic. The 16 properties developed in 2016, which are near stabilization and included under “Developed in 2016 – 2018” have an annualized yield on cost, based upon the net operating income ended June 30, 2020, of 6.7%. The yield on cost that will ultimately be achieved on the facilities under “Developed in 2013 - 2015”may not be indicativeremainder of the yield on cost tonewly developed facilities cannot be achieved on these facilities.determined at this time.
We have ten additional newly developed facilities in process, which will have a total of 1.1 million net rentable square feet of storage space and have an aggregate development cost totaling approximately $189.0$195.3 million. We expect these facilities to open over the next 18 to 24 months.
Expansions of Existing Facilities
The expansion of an existing facility involves the construction of new space on an existing facility, either on existing unused land or through the demolition of existing buildings in order to facilitate densification. The construction costs for an expanded facility may include, in addition to adding space, adding amenities such as climate control to existing space, improving the visual appeal of the facility, and to a much lesser extent, the replacement of existing doors, roofs, and HVAC.
The return profile on the expansion of existing facilities differs from a new facility, due to a lack of land cost, and there can be less cash flow risk because we have more direct knowledge of the local demand for space on the site as compared to a new facility. However, many expansions involve the demolition of existing revenue-generating space with the loss of the related revenues during the construction and fill-up period.
The facilities under “completed expansions” represent those facilities where the expansions have been completed at June 30, 2019.2020. We incurred a total of $306.4$423.2 million in direct cost to expand these facilities, demolished a total of 0.91.0 million net rentable square feet of storage space, and built a total of 3.64.8 million net rentable square feet of new storage space.
The facilities under “expansions in process” represent those facilities where development is in process or that we expect to commence development in 2019. We have already demolished a total of 0.1 million net rentable square feet at June 30, 2019, we expect2020 or which will commence construction by December 31, 2020. We have a pipeline to demolish an additional 0.2 million net rentable square feet, and we expect to buildadd a total of 2.7 million net rentable square feet of storage space by expanding existing self-storage facilities for an aggregate direct development cost of $331.6$360.9 million. We have already demolished 0.1 million net rentable square feet of space in connection with our expansion projects, and expect to demolish an additional 0.3 million net rentable square feet.
Analysis of Depreciation and Amortization of Developed and Expanded Facilities
Depreciation and amortization with respect to the Developed and Expanded Facilities totaled $15.1 million and $30.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 totaled $13.4 million and $25.6 million,2020, respectively, as compared to $10.5$13.6 million and $19.5$25.5 million for the same periods in 2018.2019. These amounts represent depreciation of the developed buildings and, in the case of the expanded facilities, the legacy depreciation on the existing buildings. With respect to the Developed and Expanded Facilities completed at June 30, 2019,2020, depreciation of buildings is expected to aggregate approximately $53.1$59.5 million in the year ending December 31, 2019.2020. There will be additional depreciation of new buildings that are developed or expanded in the remainder of 2019.

Other non-same store facilities
The facilities under “Other“other non-same store facilities” represent facilities which, while not newly acquired, developed, or expanded, are not fully stabilized since January 1, 2017,2018, due primarily to casualty events such as hurricanes, floods, and fires, as well as facilities acquired from third parties prior to January 1, 20172018 that were recently developed or expanded by the previous owner.
The Otherother non-same store facilities have an aggregate of 5.43.6 million net rentable square feet, including 1.10.7 million in Texas, 0.8 million in Oklahoma, 0.7 million in California, 0.60.5 million in each of Ohio and South Carolina,Oklahoma, 0.4 million in Floridaeach of New York and 1.2South Carolina and 1.1 million in other states.
The net operating income for these facilities increased from $11.0was $6.1 million and $12.9 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 20182020, respectively, as compared to $11.1$6.9 million and $13.6 million for the same periods in 2019. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. During the three months ended June 30, 2019,2020, the average occupancy for these facilities totaled 89.6% (87.9%was 87.8%, and 86.4%, respectively, as compared to 87.2% and 86.3% for the same periodperiods in 2018), and the realized rent per occupied square feet totaled $13.11 ($13.48 for the same period in 2018).2019.
Over the longer term, we expect the growth in operations of these facilities to be similar to that of our Same Store facilities. However, in the short run, year over year comparisons will vary due to the impact of the underlying events which resulted in these facilities being classified as non-same store.
Depreciation and amortization with respect to the other non-same store facilities totaled $6.9 million and $13.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, totaled $7.4 million and $14.6 million,2020, respectively, as compared to $7.8$5.8 million and $15.8$11.8 million for the same periods in 2018.2019. We expect that depreciation for these facilities tothe remainder of 2020 will approximate $29.2 million for the year ending December 31, 2019.level experienced in the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Tenant reinsurance operations: Our customers have the option of purchasing insurance from a non-affiliated insurance company to cover certain losses to their goods stored at our facilities. A wholly-owned, consolidated subsidiary of Public Storage fully reinsures such policies, and thereby assumes all risk of losses under these policies from the insurance company. The subsidiary receives reinsurance premiums, substantially equal to the premiums
53
collected from our tenants, from the non-affiliated insurance company. Such reinsurance premiums are shown as “Tenant reinsurance premiums” in the above table.
The subsidiary pays a fee to Public Storage to assist with the administration of the program and to allow the insurance to be marketed to our tenants. This fee represents a substantial amount of the reinsurance premiums received by our subsidiary. The fee is eliminated in consolidation and is therefore not shown in the above table.
Tenant reinsurance revenue increased to $33.0$4.0 million and $64.6 million foror 12.0% in the three months ended June 30, 2020, and increased $7.1 million or 10.9% in the six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, from $31.6 million and $62.4 million for2020, in each case as compared to the same periodsperiod in 2018,2019. The increase is due primarily to higher average premiums and an increase in our tenant base with respect to acquired, newly developed, and expanded facilities.

We expect future growth will come primarily from customers of newly acquired and developed facilities, as well as additional tenants at our existing unstabilized self-storage facilities.
Cost of operations primarily includes claims paid that are not covered by our outside third-party insurers, as well as claims adjustment expenses. Claims expenses vary based upon the levelnumber of insured tenants and the levelvolume of events affecting claims at particular properties (suchwhich drive covered customer losses, such as burglary)burglary, as well as catastrophic weather events affecting multiple properties such as hurricanes and floods. Cost of operations were $6.7$7.3 million and $12.9$14.1 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019,2020, respectively, as compared to $5.9$6.7 million and $12.1$12.9 million for the same periods in 2018.2019.
Merchandise sales: We sell locks, boxes, and packing supplies at our self-storage facilities and the level of sales of these items is primarily impacted by the level of move-ins and other customer traffic at our self-storage facilities. We do not expect any significant changes in revenues or profitability from our merchandise sales in the remainder of 2019.2020.

Investment in Shurgard: Throughout all periods presented, we effectively owned, directly and indirectly, 31.3 million31,268,459 Shurgard common shares, representing prior to October 15, 2018, an approximate 49%35% equity interest in Shurgard. On October 15, 2018, Shurgard completed an initial global offering (the “Offering”), issuing 25.0 million of itsShurgard’s common shares to third parties at a price of €23 per share (€575 million in gross proceeds), reducing our ownership interest to approximately 35%. Following the Offering, Shurgard’s shares trade on Euronext Brussels under the “SHUR” symbol.
At June 30, 2019,2020, Shurgard owned 231238 self-storage facilities with approximately 13 million net rentable square feet. Shurgard pays us license fees for use of the “Shurgard” trademark, as described in more detail in Note 4 to our June 30, 20192020 financial statements.
On July 13, 2018, Shurgard paid a cash distribution totaling $296.7 million, of which we received our 49% equity share totaling $145.4 million.
In 2018,the six months ended June 30, 2020, Shurgard acquired eight self-storagesix facilities from third parties (five in Sweden and three in the United Kingdom) for an aggregate of $114.5 million, acquired one facility from us located in West London for $42.1 million in cash, and opened two newly developed facilities, one each in Sweden and Germany at an aggregate cost of $19.6 million.$53.9 million (none in the same period in 2019).
OurThe increase of $0.4 million in our equity in earnings from Shurgard totaled $4.1 million and $8.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019 is due primarily to (i) our $2.1 million equity share of a net casualty gain recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2020, offset partially by (ii) our $0.7 million equity share of a net gain on disposition recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2019 and (iii) our equity share of increased depreciation expense.
The $1.3 million decrease in our equity in earnings from Shurgard for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019 is due to (i) our $2.0 million equity share of a net casualty loss recorded in the six months June 30, 2020, (ii) our $0.7 million equity share of a net gain on disposition recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. Ouroffset partially by (iii) our $1.4 million equity share of Shurgard’s resolution of a contingency in earnings from Shurgard totaled $5.4 million and $12.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The $1.3 million and $4.3 million decreases in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2018, were due primarily to the impact of uninvested Offering proceeds and reductions of 5.7% and 6.7% in average exchange rates of the U.S. Dollar to the Euro for the respective three and six month periods, offset partially by the impact (prior to the impact of exchange rates) of increased self-storage net operating income, both from Shurgard’s stabilized properties and newly acquired and developed facilities.2020.
We expect year-over-year reductions in ongoing equity earnings from Shurgard in the remainder of 2019. The level of these decreases will depend in part on the portion of the proceeds of the Offering which remain uninvested. Shurgard expects to distribute a substantial portion of its earnings to its shareholders, which will result in reduced cash available to reinvest in real estate. Our future earnings from Shurgard will also be affected by (i) the operating results of its existing facilities, (ii) the level of development and acquisition activities, (iii) the income tax rates applicable in the various European jurisdictions in which Shurgard operates, and (iv) the exchange rate between the U.S. Dollar and currencies in the countries in which Shurgard conducts its business (principally the Euro).

Share-based compensation expense includes the amortization of restricted share units and stock options granted to employees and trustees, as well as related employer taxes. Share-based compensation expense varies based upon the level of grants and their related vesting and amortization periods, forfeitures, as well as the Company’s
common share price on the date of grant.
In February 2018, we announced that our CEO and CFO at the time were retiring from their executive roles at the end of 2018 and would serve only as Trustees of the Company. Pursuant to our share-based compensation plans, their unvested grants will continue to vest over the original vesting periods during their service as Trustees. For financial reporting, effective February 2018, the end of the service periods for previous stock option and RSU grants for these executives changed from (i) the various vesting dates to (ii) December 31, 2018. Accordingly, all remaining share-based compensation expense for these two executives was amortized through the end of 2018. Included in the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 is approximately $7.8 million and $15.6 million in incremental share-based compensation expense for the planned retirement of our former CEO and CFO. The remaining decreases are due primarily to reductions in ongoing share-based compensation awards. See See Note 10 to our June 30, 20192020 financial statements for further information on our share-based compensation. We expect
Our share-based compensation plans were revised after June 30, 2020 to allow vesting (“Retirement Vesting”), rather than forfeiture, of all unvested share-based grants upon termination of service, for employees that meet certain requirements, such as minimum age, minimum years of service, notice, and who cooperate as needed in a reduction intransition plan. This change is expected to increase share-based compensation expense in the remainder of 2019 as compared2020, due primarily to accelerated amortization of share-based grants that are expected to be eligible for Retirement Vesting at an earlier date than the same period in 2018.original vesting date.
Costs of senior executives represent the cash compensation paid to our CEO and CFO.
Development and acquisition costs primarily represent internal and external expenses related to our development and acquisition of real estate facilities and varies primarily based upon the level of activities. The amounts in the above table are net of $3.0 million and $6.0$6.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019,2020, respectively, as compared to $3.2$3.0 million and $6.3$6.0 million for the same periods in 2018,2019, in development costs that were capitalized to newly developed and redeveloped self-storage facilities. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we incurred $3.2 million in costs associated with the write-off of cancelled development projects. Development and acquisition costs are expected to remain stable in the remainder of 2019.2020.
Tax compliance costs and taxes paid include taxes paid to various state and local authorities, the internal and external costs of filing tax returns, costs associated with complying with federal and state tax laws, and maintaining our compliance with Internal Revenue Service REIT rules. Such costs vary primarily based upon the tax rates of the various states in which we do business.
Legal costs include internal personnel as well as fees paid to legal firms and other third parties with respect to general corporate legal matters and risk management, and varies based upon the level of legal activity. The future level of legal costs is not determinable.
Public company costs represent the incremental costs of operating as a publicly-traded company, such as internal and external investor relations expenses, stock listing and transfer agent fees, board of trustees’ (our “Board”)

costs, and costs associated with maintaining compliance with applicable laws and regulations, including the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
Other costs represent certain professional and consulting fees, payroll, and overhead that are not attributable to our property operations. Such costs vary depending upon the level of corporate activities, initiatives,include nonrecurring and other factors and, as such, are not predictable. The decrease isvariable items, including $1.6 million in due primarily to certain nonrecurringdiligence costs incurred in the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.2020, in connection with our non-binding proposal, which we did not proceed with, to acquire 100% of the stapled securities of National Storage REIT. The level of these costs depends upon corporate activities and initiatives and, as a result, such costs are not predictable.
Our future general and administrative expenses are difficult to estimate, due to their dependence upon many factors, including those noted above.
Interest and other income: Interest and other income is comprised primarily ofincludes $2.2 million and $4.8 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, as compared to $2.6 million and $5.3 million for the same periods in 2019, in aggregate net income from our commercial operations, ourand property management operation,operations. We do not expect any significant changes in income from commercial and property management operations in the remainder of 2020. The remaining amounts include interest earned on cash balances, andwhich reflected a decrease in average interest rates, trademark license fees received from Shurgard, as well asand sundry other income items that are received from time to time (including $2.0 million in varying amounts. Amounts attributable to our commercial operations and property management operations totaled $2.6 million and $5.3 millioninterest income associated with the early repayment of a note receivable in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, as compared to $3.0 million and $5.8 million for the same periods in 2018.2020). The increase inlevel of other interest and other income is attributable to higher interest rates on uninvested cash balances. We do not expect any significant changes in interest and other incomeitems in the remainder of 2019.2020 will be dependent upon the level of cash balances we retain, interest rates, and the level of sundry other income items.
Interest expense: For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019,2020, we incurred $13.1$14.9 million and $22.4$29.5 million, respectively, of interest on our outstanding debt, as compared to $9.4$13.1 million and $18.8$22.4 million for
the same periods in 2018.2019. In determining interest expense, these amounts were offset by capitalized interest of $0.8$0.7 million and $2.0$1.7 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019,2020, respectively, associated with our development activities, as compared to $1.0$0.8 million and $2.3$2.0 million for the same periods in 2018.2019. The increase in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019,2020, as compared to the same periods in 2018,2019, is due to our issuanceissuances on (i) April 12, 2019 of $500 million in senior notes bearing interest at an annual rate of 3.385% and on (ii) January 24, 2020 of €500 million ($551.6 million) aggregate principal amount of senior notes bearing interest at an annual rate of 0.875%. At June 30, 2019,2020, we had $1.9$2.5 billion of debt outstanding, with an average interest rate of 2.9%2.4%. See Note 6 to our June 30, 2019 financial statements for further information on the maturity of our debt balances.
Future interest expense will be dependent upon the level of outstanding debt and the amount of in-process development costs.
Foreign Exchange Gain (Loss): Gain: For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded foreign currency translation losses of $19.3 million and $10.4 million, respectively, representing the changes in the U.S. Dollar equivalent of our Euro-denominated unsecured notes due to fluctuations in exchange rates. For the three months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded foreign currency translation losses of $5.2 million, and for the six months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded foreign currency translation gains of $2.6 million (gains of $21.9 million and $10.1 million for the same periods in 2018). These gains and losses represent the changes in the U.S. Dollar equivalent of our Euro-denominated unsecured notes due to fluctuations in exchange rates.million. The Euro was translated at exchange rates of approximately 1.1371.123 U.S. Dollars per Euro at June 30, 2019,2020, 1.122 at MarchDecember 31, 2019, 1.137 at June 30, 2019 and 1.144 at December 31, 2018, 1.168 at June 30, 2018, 1.232 at March 31, 2018 and 1.198 at December 31, 2017.2018. Future gains and losses on foreign currency translation will be dependent upon changes in the relative value of the Euro to the U.S. Dollar, and the level of Euro-denominated debt outstanding.
Gain on Real Estate Investment Sales: In the six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded $1.1 million in gains, and in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded gains totaling $341,000, and in the six months ended June 30, 2018, we recorded gains totaling $424,000, primarily in connection with the partial sale of real estate facilities pursuant to eminent domain proceedings.
Net Income Allocable to Preferred Shareholders: Net income allocable to preferred shareholders based upon distributions decreased from $54.1$53.5 million and $108.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018 to $53.5 million in the same period in 2019, due to lower average rates, and increased from $108.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 20182019, respectively, to $108.5$53.0 million and $105.0 million in the same periodperiods in 2019,2020, due primarily to lower average coupon rates due to redemptions of preferred shares with the proceeds from the issuance of new series with lower market coupon rates, partially offset by higher average preferred shares outstanding partially offset by lower average rates.outstanding. We also allocated $8.9 million of income from our common shareholders to the holders of our preferred shares totaling $15.1 million in each of the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020 and $8.9 million and $17.4 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, in connection with the redemption of our Series Z Preferred Shares and $8.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019 in connection with the redemption of our Series Y Preferred Shares.preferred securities. Based upon our preferred shares outstanding at June 30, 2019,2020, our quarterly distribution to our preferred shareholders is expected to be approximately $49.2$51.9 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Financing Strategy: AsWhile being a REIT allows us to minimize the payment of federal income tax expense, we generallyare required to distribute 100% of our taxable income to our shareholders, which relative to a taxable C corporation,shareholders. This requirement limits the amount of cash flow from operations that we can retain for investments. As a result,be retained and reinvested in orderthe business, increasing our reliance upon raising capital to grow our asset base, access tofund growth.
Because raising capital is important. Historicallyimportant to our growth, we have primarily financed our cash investment activities with retained operating cash flow combined with the proceeds from the issuance of preferred securities. Over the past three years, we have diversified our capital sources by issuing medium term debt.
Ourendeavor to maintain a strong financial profile is characterized by strong credit metrics, including low leverage relative to our total capitalization and operating cash flows. We are one of the highest rated REITs, as rated by major rating agencies Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s. Our unsecuredsenior debt has an “A” credit rating by Standard & Poor’s and “A2” by Moody’s. Our credit ratings on each of our series of preferred shares are “A3” by Moody’s and “BBB+” by Standard & Poor’s. Our credit profile and ratings enablesenable us to effectively access both the public and private capital markets to raise capital.
While we must distribute our taxable income, we are nonetheless able to retain operating cash flow to the extent that our tax depreciation exceeds our maintenance capital expenditures. In recent years, we have retained approximately $200 million to $300 million per year in cash flow.
Capital needs in excess of retained cash flow are met with: (i) preferred equity, (ii) medium and long-term debt, and (iii) common equity. We select among these sources of capital based upon relative cost, availability, the desire for leverage, and considering potential constraints caused by certain features of capital sources, such as debt covenants. We view our line of credit, as well as short-term bank loans, as bridge financing.
We have a $500.0 million revolving line of credit which we occasionally use as temporary “bridge” financing until we are able to raise longer term capital. As of June 30, 20192020 and July 30, 2019,August 5, 2020, there were no borrowings outstanding on the revolving line of credit,credit; however, we do have approximately $15.9$19.3 million of outstanding letters of credit which limits our borrowing capacity to $484.1$480.7 million.
On April 19, 2019, we amended our revolving Our line of credit to (i) extend the maturity date from March 31, 2020 tomatures on April 19, 2024, (ii) decrease the current effective borrowing spread over LIBOR from 0.850% to 0.70%, and (iii) decrease the current effective facility fee from 0.080% to 0.070%. All other terms remain substantially the same.2024.
Over the long-term,We believe that we expecthave significant financial flexibility to fundadapt to changing conditions and opportunities. Currently, market rates of interest for our debt, and market coupon rates for our preferred equity, are at historically low levels and we have significant access to these sources of capital. We recently issued $565.0 million in preferred securities at a 4.625% coupon rate. Based upon our substantial current liquidity relative to our capital requirements with retained operating cash flow,noted below, we would not expect any potential capital market dislocations to have a material impact upon our expected capital and growth plans over the issuancenext 12 months. However, if capital market conditions were to change significantly in the long run, our access to or cost of additional medium or long-term debt and proceeds from the issuance of commonpreferred equity capital could be negatively impacted and preferred securities. We will select among these sources of capital based upon availability, relative cost, the desire for leverage, refinancing risk, and considering potential constraints caused by certain features of capital sources, such as debt covenants.potentially affect future investment activities.
Liquidity and Capital Resource Analysis: We believe that our net cash provided by our operating activities will continue to be sufficient to enable us to meet our ongoing requirements for principal payments on debt, maintenance capital expenditures and distributions to our shareholders forover the foreseeable future.next 12 months.
As of June 30, 2019,2020, we expect capital resources over the next year of approximately $1.1$1.9 billion, which exceeds our currently identified capital needs of approximately $415.1$931.1 million. Our expected capital resources include: (i) $360.3 million$1.3 billion of cash as of June 30, 2019,2020, (ii) $484.1$480.7 million of available borrowing capacity on our revolving line of credit and (iii) approximately $200$150 million to $250$200 million of expected retained operating cash flow in the next year. Retained operating cash flow represents our expected cash flow provided by operating activities, less shareholder distributions and capital expenditures to maintain our real estate facilities.
Our currently identified capital needs consist primarily of $86.5$33.3 million in property acquisitions currently under contract, $495.0 million to redeem our Series V Preferred Shares on July 10, 2020 and $328.6$402.8 million of remaining spending on our current development pipeline, which will be incurred primarily in the next 18 to 24 months. We have no substantial principal payments on debt until 2022. OurWe expect our capital needs mayto increase over the next year as we expect to add projects to our development pipeline and acquire additional properties. In addition to other investmentAdditional potential capital needs could result from various activities we may also redeemincluding the redemption of outstanding preferred securities, or repurchase sharesrepurchases of our common stock, or mergers and acquisition activities; however, there can be no assurance of any such activities transpiring in the future.near or longer term. In addition, the COVID Pandemic could result in increases or decreases to our capital needs as we continue to adjust our acquisition and development of self-storage facilities in light of potential returns, execution issues, the cost and availability of capital, and other factors.
To the extent our retained operating cash flow, cash on hand, and line of credit are insufficient to fund our activities, we believe we have a variety of possibilities to raise additional capital including issuing common or preferred securities, issuing debt, or entering into joint venture arrangements to acquire or develop facilities.
Required Debt Repayments: As of June 30, 2019,2020, the principal outstanding on our outstanding debt totaled approximately $1.9$2.5 billion, consisting of $28.3$26.3 million of secured debt, $388.9$945.5 million of Euro-denominated unsecured debt and $1.5 billion of U.S. Dollar denominated unsecured debt.

Capital Expenditure Requirements: Capital expenditures include general maintenance, major repairs or replacements to elements of our facilities to keep our facilities in good operating condition and maintain their visual appeal. Capital expenditures do not include costs relating to the development of new facilities or redevelopment of existing facilities to increase their available rentable square footage.
Capital expenditures totaled $72.6$95.6 million in the first six months of 2019,2020, and are expected to approximate $200$175 million in the year ending December 31, 2019.2020. Our capital expenditures for 20192020 include certain projects that are upgrades and not traditional like-for-like replacements of existing components, and in certain circumstances replace existing components before the end of their functional lives. Such projects include installation of LED lighting, replacing existing planting configurations with more drought tolerant and low maintenance configurations, installation of solar panels, improvements to office and customer zone configurations to provide a more customer-friendly experience, and improvements to outdoor facades and color schemes. Such incremental investments improve customer satisfaction, the attractiveness and competitiveness of our facilities to new and existing customers, or reduce operating costs. The $200$175 million in capital expenditures expected for the year ending December 31, 2020, as well as the $192.5 million incurred in 2019, representsrepresent a substantial increase offrom the amounts incurred of $139.4 million, $124.8 million and $86.0 million in 2018, 2017, and 2016, respectively. We expect continued elevated capital expenditures beyond 2019;2020; however, the level and persistence of this elevation is uncertain at this time.
Requirement to Pay Distributions: For all periods presented herein, we have elected to be treated as a REIT, as defined in the Code. As a REIT, we do not incur federal income tax on our REIT taxable income (generally, net rents and gains from real property, dividends, and interest) that is fully distributed each year (for this purpose, certain distributions paid in a subsequent year may be considered), and if we meet certain organizational and operational rules. We believe we have met these requirements in all periods presented herein, and we expect to continue to elect and qualify as a REIT.
On July 24, 2019,August 3, 2020, our Board declared a regular common quarterly cash dividend of $2.00 per common share totaling approximately $349$350 million, which will be paid at the end of September 2019.2020. Our consistent, long-term dividend policy has been to distribute only our taxable income. Future quarterly distributions with respect to the common shares will continue to be determined based upon our REIT distribution requirements after taking into consideration distributions to the preferred shareholders and will be funded with cash flows from operating activities.
We estimate the annual distribution requirements with respect to our Preferred Shares outstanding at June 30, 2019,2020, excluding the Series V Preferred Shares which were redeemed on July 10, 2020, to be approximately $196.8$207.5 million per year.
We estimate we will pay approximately $7.1$5.3 million per year in distributions to noncontrolling interests outstanding at June 30, 2019.2020.
Real Estate Investment Activities: Subsequent to June 30, 2019, we acquired or were under contract to acquire (subject to customary closing conditions) ten self-storage facilities for $86.5 million. We will continue to seek to acquire properties; however, there is significant competitionadditional self-storage facilities from third parties. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, third party acquisition volume slowed as third party sellers delayed the sale of their properties due to acquire existingeconomic uncertainty resulting from the COVID Pandemic. Seller inquiries have increased since June 30, 2020, with five properties under contract for an aggregate purchase price of $33.3 million, and negotiations under way on additional facilities. Volume later in 2020 could increase further if leveraged owners of recently developed facilities are forced to sell, the economy stabilizes and thereseller confidence returns, or additional owners are otherwise motivated to sell. There can be no assurance as to the level of facilities we may acquire.

future acquisitions of facilities.
As of June 30, 20192020 we had development and expansion projects at a total cost of approximately $520.5$556.2 million. Costs incurred through June 30, 20192020 were $191.9$153.4 million, with the remaining cost to complete of $328.6$402.8 million expected to be incurred primarily in the next 18 to 24 months.
Some of these projects are subject to significant contingencies such as entitlement approval. We expect to continue to seek additional projects; however, the level of future development and redevelopment may be limited due to various constraints such as difficulty in finding projects that meet our risk-adjusted yield expectations and challenges in obtaining building permits for self-storage activities in certain municipalities.
The COVID Pandemic could delay the estimated timing of completion of our existing pipeline of development and expansion projects, because many jurisdictions have shut down or delayed entitlement activities, and “stay at home” orders could potentially delay construction activities. In addition, the COVID Pandemic could extend the timeframe for a newly developed facility to reach stabilized occupancies and cash flows. Given the impact of the COVID Pandemic on our operations, we determined to cease pursuit of several early stage development and expansion projects during the three months ended June 30, 2020. We continue to monitor our projects to ensure that they still meet our risk-adjusted yield expectations, and reduced project yield estimates due to the COVID Pandemic or other factors could result in the cancellation of existing projects in the future, or we may not pursue certain new projects that we would have otherwise sought.
Redemption of Preferred Securities: Historically, we have taken advantage of refinancing higher coupon preferred securities with lower coupon preferred securities. In the future, we may also elect to finance the redemption of preferred securities with proceeds from the issuance of debt. As of July 30, 2019,August 5, 2020, we have the following additional series of preferred securities that are eligible for redemption, at our option and with 30 days’ notice; our 5.625% Series U Preferred Shares ($288 million), our 5.375% Series V Preferred Shares ($495 million), our 5.200% Series W Preferred Shares ($500 million), and our 5.200% Series X Preferred Shares ($225 million). See Note 8 to our June 30, 20192020 financial statements for the redemption dates of our other series of preferred shares. Redemption of such preferred shares will depend upon many factors, including the rate at which we could issue replacement preferred securities. None of our preferred securities are redeemable at the option of the holders.
Repurchases of Common Shares: Our Board has authorized management to repurchase up to 35,000,000 of our common shares on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. During the three months ended June 30, 2019,2020, we did not repurchase any of our common shares. From the inception of the repurchase program through July 30, 2019,August 5, 2020, we have repurchased a total of 23,721,916 common shares at an aggregate cost of approximately $679.1 million. Future levels of common share repurchases will be dependent upon our available capital, investment alternatives and the trading price of our common shares.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
To limit our exposure to market risk, we are capitalized primarily with preferred and common equity. Our preferred shares are redeemable at our option generally five years after issuance, but the holder has no redemption option. Our debt is our only market-risk sensitive portion of our capital structure, which totals approximately $1.9$2.5 billion and represents 21.8%27.3% of the book value of our equity at June 30, 2019.2020.
We have foreign currency exposure at June 30, 20192020 related to (i) our investment in Shurgard, with a book value of $345.8$320.9 million, and a fair value of $1.2 billion based upon the closing price of Shurgard’s stock on June 30, 2020, and (ii) €342.0€842.0 million ($388.9945.5 million) of Euro-denominated unsecured notes payable.
The fair value of our fixed rate debt at June 30, 20192020 is approximately $2.0$2.7 billion. The table below summarizes the annual maturities of our fixed rate debt, which had a weighted average effective rate of 2.9%2.4% at June 30, 2019.2020.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures
Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports we file and submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in accordance with SEC guidelines and that such information is communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based on the definition of “disclosure controls and procedures” in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures in reaching that level of reasonable assurance. We also have investments in certain unconsolidated real estate entities and because we do not control these entities, our disclosure controls and procedures with respect to such entities are substantially more limited than those we maintain with respect to our consolidated subsidiaries.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, at a reasonable assurance level.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 20192020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Part II. | OTHER INFORMATION |
ITEM 1. | Legal Proceedings |
We are a party to various legal proceedings and subject to various claims and complaints; however, we believe that the likelihood of these contingencies resulting in a material loss to the Company, either individually or in the aggregate, is remote.
ITEM 1A. | Risk Factors |
In addition to the other information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed for the year ended December 31, 2018,2019, in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors, and in our other filings with the SEC. These factors may materially affect our business, financial condition and operating results and could causeresults. Except as described below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors relating to the Company disclosed in our actual results to differ materially from expectations. Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
In addition, in considering the forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q and elsewhere, you should refer to the qualifications and limitations on our forward-looking statements that are described in Forward Looking Statements at the beginning of Part I, Item 2 of this Form 10-Q.
We are subject to risks from the COVID Pandemic and we may in the future be subject to risks from other public health crises.
Since being reported in December 2019, the COVID Pandemic has spread globally, including to every state in the United States, adversely affecting public health and economic activity. Our business is subject to risks from the COVID Pandemic, including, among others:
risk of illness or death of our employees or customers;
continuing negative impacts on the economic conditions in our markets which have reduced and we expect will continue to reduce the demand for self-storage;
continuing, new or reinstituted government restrictions that (i) limit or prevent use of our facilities, (ii) limit our ability to increase rent or otherwise limit the rent we can charge, (iii) limit our ability to collect rent or evict delinquent tenants, or (iv) limit our ability to complete development and redevelopment projects;
risk that even after the initial restrictions due to the COVID Pandemic ease, they could be reinstituted in case of future waves of infection or if additional pandemics occur;
risk that we could experience a change in the move-out patterns of our long-term customers due to economic uncertainty and the significant increase in unemployment in the last 30 days. This could lead to lower occupancies and rent “roll down” as long-term customers are replaced with new customers at lower rates; and
risk of negative impacts on the cost and availability of debt and equity capital as a result of the COVID Pandemic, which could have a material impact upon our capital and growth plans.
We believe that the degree to which the COVID Pandemic adversely impacts our business, operating results, cash flows and/or financial condition will be driven primarily by the duration, spread and severity of the pandemic itself, as well as the duration of indirect economic impacts such as recession, dislocation in capital markets, and job loss, as well as potential longer term changes in consumer behavior, all of which are uncertain and difficult to predict. As a result, we are not able at this time to estimate the effect of these factors on our business, but the adverse impact on our
business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows could be material. Future pandemics or public health crises could have similar impacts.
ITEM 2. | Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds |
Common Share Repurchases
Our Board has authorized management to repurchase up to 35,000,000 of our common shares on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. From the inception of the repurchase program through July 30, 2019,August 5, 2020, we have repurchased a total of 23,721,916 common shares (all purchased prior to 2010) at an aggregate cost of approximately $679.1 million. Our common share repurchase program does not have an expiration date and there are 11,278,084 common shares that may yet be repurchased under our repurchase program as of June 30, 2019.2020. We have no current plans to repurchase shares; however, future levels of common share repurchases will be dependent upon our available capital, investment alternatives, and the trading price of our common shares.
Preferred Share Redemptions
We redeemed, pursuant to our option to redeem such shares, 11,500,000 of our 6.000% Series Zhad no preferred shares inredemptions during the three months ended June 2019, at $25.00 per share.30, 2020.
