CEO Comments
“Our business momentum continues to illustrate the growth opportunities afforded to us through a mix of investment verticals in an increasingly diversified platform. Our pending merger with VEREIT is consistent with this trajectory, as the transaction, once completed, is expected to drive immediate earnings accretion, create additional growth opportunities through enhanced size, scale, and diversification, and allow for meaningful strategic and financing synergies. Additionally, our continued success in the U.K. gives us confidence in the portability of our business model initiatives as One Team on behalf of our investors and clients,” said Sumit Roy, Realty Income’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “I remain inspired by the dedication and talent of our team who continues to execute across our strategic initiatives. During the quarter, we invested over $1.0 billion in properties with attractive risk-adjusted yields, including nearly $403 million in the U.K. We are proud to have eclipsed the $2.0 billion investment mark in our U.K. portfolio within the first two years of our initial acquisition abroad. Moreover, with our first investment in Hawaii, our real estate portfolio now reaches all U.S. states, demonstrating the size, scale, and diversity of our platform. Further, in April we published our inaugural Sustainability Report, which outlines our dedication to embracing a changing world for the benefit of all those we serve.”
“Looking forward, our rent collections have improved and stabilized, the business is well-positioned to capitalize on our active global investment pipeline, and we finished the quarter with approximately $2.5 billion of liquidity and a net debt to EBITDAre ratio of 5.3x. We remain on pace to meet our 2021 investment guidance of over $3.25 billion.”

Due to differences in applicable foreign currency conversion rates and rent conventions, the percentages above may differ from percentages calculated utilizing our total portfolio annualized contractual rent.

(3) Our clients occupying the new properties operate in 23 industries and are 65.1% retail and 34.9% industrial, based on rental revenue. Approximately 39% of the rental revenue generated from acquisitions during the three months ended March 31, 2021 is from our investment grade rated clients, their subsidiaries or affiliated companies.
Same Store Rental Revenue
The following summarizes our same store rental revenue on 6,127 properties under lease (dollars in millions):
| Three Months Ended March 31, | Decrease | ||||||||||||||||
| 2021 | 2020 | Three Months | |||||||||||||||
Rental revenue | $ | 372.9 | $ | 375.8 | (0.8) | % | |||||||||||
For purposes of comparability, same store rental revenue is presented on a constant currency basis using the exchange rate as of March 31, 2021 of 1.38 GBP/USD.
Our calculation of same store rental revenue includes rent deferred for future payment as a result of lease concessions we granted in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and recognized under the practical expedient provided by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB). Same store rental revenue was negatively impacted by reserves recorded as reductions of rental revenue of $7.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $819,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Our calculation of same store rental revenue also includes uncollected rent for which we have not granted a lease concession. If these applicable amounts of rent deferrals and uncollected rent were excluded from our calculation of same store rental revenue, the decreases for the three months ended March 31, 2021 relative to the comparable period for 2020 would have been (8.6)%.

Liquidity and Capital Markets
Equity Capital Raising
In January 2021, we raised $670 million from the issuance of 12,075,000 shares of common stock in an underwritten public offering, inclusive of 1,575,000 shares purchased by the underwriters upon the exercise of their option to purchase additional shares.
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we raised $692 million from the sale of common stock at a weighted average price of $57.06 per share, primarily through the underwritten public offering in January 2021.
Revolving Credit Facility and Commercial Paper Program
We have a $3.0 billion unsecured revolving credit facility, with an initial term that expires in March 2023 (subject to two six-month options to extend). The revolving credit facility also has a $1.0 billion accordion feature, which is subject to obtaining lender commitments. As of March 31, 2021, there were no borrowings on our revolving credit facility. In addition, we had a cash balance of $184.0 million.
Additionally, we have a U.S. dollar-denominated unsecured commercial paper program. Under the terms of this program, we may issue unsecured commercial paper notes up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding of $1.0 billion, with proceeds used for general corporate purposes. We use our unsecured revolving credit facility as a liquidity backstop for the repayment of the notes issued under this program. As of March 31, 2021, we had $675.0 million in commercial paper borrowings.
Early Redemption of 3.250% Notes Due 2022
In January 2021, we completed the early redemption on all $950.0 million in principal amount of our outstanding 3.250% notes due October 2022, plus accrued and unpaid interest. As a result of the early redemption, we recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $46.5 million, or $0.13 per diluted common share, to net income available to common stockholders and Nareit-defined FFO in the three months ended March 31, 2021. Loss on extinguishment of debt is excluded in our calculation of AFFO.
2021 Earnings Guidance
We estimate FFO per share for 2021 of $3.26 to $3.34, inclusive of a $0.13 per share loss due to the early redemption of our 3.250% notes due October 2022. We estimate AFFO per share for 2021 of $3.44 to $3.49, an increase of 1.5% to 2.9% over 2020 AFFO per share of $3.39. Summarized below are approximate estimates of the key components of our 2021 earnings guidance, which do not give effect to the announced merger between us and VEREIT, Inc.:
