Safety, Income & Growth Inc.

iStar formed SAFE to expand and efficiently capitalize iStar's ground lease business. iStar contributed to SAFE an initial portfolio of 12 assets, many of which iStar had owned for more than a decade, which had a gross book value of $223 million and a net book value of $161 million, net of $62 million of depreciation, on March 31, 2017.

In March, SAFE completed a $227 million secured debt financing on the initial portfolio and distributed all of the proceeds of the financing to iStar. In April, through a merger and other transactions, two institutional investors acquired a 51% ownership interest in SAFE for $57.5 million, representing $20.00 per share, based on a total enterprise value of SAFE of $340 million, including the $227 million of in-place secured debt. iStar received the $57.5 million of cash proceeds from the acquisition transaction and retained a 49% interest in SAFE.

On June 27th, SAFE completed its $205 million initial public offering (IPO) and a $45 million concurrent private placement of common stock to iStar, each at a price of $20.00 per share. After giving effect to the IPO and concurrent private placement, iStar held 28% of SAFE's outstanding common stock.

As a result of the SAFE transactions, iStar:


    --  received approximately $285 million of cash proceeds, including $227
        million of financing raised during the first quarter;
    --  recorded $123 million of income in the second quarter, partially offset
        by $14 million of expensed IPO costs;
    --  expects to retrospectively record an additional gain of approximately
        $56 million in the second quarter 2017 when new revenue recognition
        accounting standards become effective on January 1, 2018; and
    --  owns 5,025,000 shares of SAFE (28% of shares outstanding).

"We believe ground leases represent one of the most compelling investment opportunities in the real estate market. There are very few hard assets that offer safety in uncertain times, growing income in an environment in which rates remain at historically low levels, along with an opportunity for significant capital appreciation," said Jay Sugarman, chairman and chief executive officer. "We have created SAFE to allow iStar shareholders to benefit from what we believe is a large and attractive market opportunity."

iStar will manage SAFE pursuant to a management agreement. After the first anniversary of SAFE's IPO, iStar will receive an annual management fee equal to 1% of SAFE's equity which will be paid in shares of SAFE stock.

Following SAFE's IPO, iStar, along with two senior executives, have entered into a 10b5-1 stock purchase plan to purchase in the open market up to $25 million of additional SAFE common stock at prices below $20 per share.

Net Lease

iStar's net lease business seeks to create stable cash flows through long-term leases to single tenants on its properties. The Company targets mission-critical facilities leased on a long-term basis to tenants, offering structured solutions that combine iStar's capabilities in underwriting, lease structuring, asset management and build-to-suit construction.

At the end of the quarter, iStar's net lease portfolio totaled $1.4 billion, gross of $314 million of accumulated depreciation. The portfolio was comprised of $1.2 billion of wholly-owned assets, a $129 million equity investment in its net lease joint venture and the $96 million market value in shares of SAFE.

Since 2014, the Company has invested in new net lease investments primarily through its net lease joint venture with a sovereign wealth fund, in which it holds a 52% interest. At the end of the quarter, the venture's balance sheet, gross of $23 million of accumulated depreciation, included $650 million of assets, $357 million of liabilities and $270 million of equity (net of a $23 million non-controlling interest).

The overall net lease portfolio totaled 16 million square feet across 33 states. Occupancy for the portfolio was 98% at the end of the quarter, with a weighted average remaining lease term of 11.5 years. The net lease portfolio generated an unleveraged yield of 8.1% for the quarter.

Operating Properties

At the end of the quarter, iStar's operating property portfolio totaled $608 million, gross of $54 million of accumulated depreciation, and was comprised of $541 million of commercial and $67 million of residential real estate properties.

Commercial Operating Properties

The Company's commercial operating properties represent a diverse pool of assets across a broad range of geographies and collateral types including office, retail and hotel properties. These properties generated $28.7 million of revenue offset by $20.9 million of operating expenses during the quarter. At the end of the second quarter, the Company had $343 million of stabilized assets and $198 million of transitional assets. iStar generally seeks to reposition transitional assets with the objective of maximizing their values through the infusion of capital and intensive asset management efforts.

Residential Operating Properties

At the end of the quarter, the $67 million residential operating portfolio was comprised of 36 units generally located within luxury projects in major U.S. cities. The Company sold 5 units during the quarter, generating $7.4 million of proceeds and a $0.8 million gain.

Land & Development

At the end of the quarter, the Company's land & development portfolio totaled $925 million, including 8 master planned communities, 6 waterfront projects and 15 urban/infill developments. These projects are collectively entitled for approximately 13,000 lots and units.

For the quarter, the Company's land and development portfolio generated $132.7 million of revenues, offset by $122.5 million of cost of sales. In addition, the Company earned $3.6 million of earnings from land development equity method investments. During the quarter, the Company invested $29.0 million in its land portfolio.

Sales in the quarter included the conveyance of Bevard, a master planned community in Maryland, to Lennar following a judgment in the Company's favor in a long-standing legal dispute. The Company received a total of $234 million of net proceeds during the quarter which resulted in $123 million of other income and an $8 million income from the land sale. The Company had previously announced that Lennar had filed a petition with the Court of Appeals with respect to approximately $30 million of post-judgment interest, however that motion was denied. iStar is also entitled to recover attorneys' fees and costs which the Company is pursuing. A third party holds a 4.3% participation interest in all proceeds from the judgment.

    (1) Adjusted Income allocable to common shareholders should be examined in conjunction with net income (loss) as shown in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. This non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) or to cash
     flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of the Company's liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund the Company's cash needs or available for distribution to shareholders. Rather, Adjusted Income is an additional measure the Company uses to
     analyze its business performance because it excludes the effects of certain non-cash charges that the Company believes are not necessarily indicative of its operating performance while including the effect of gains or losses on investments when realized.  It should be noted that the Company's manner
     of calculating this non-GAAP financial measure may differ from the calculations of similarly-titled measures by other companies. Management considers this non-GAAP financial measure as supplemental information to net income in analyzing the performance of our underlying business. Depreciation and
     amortization includes our proportionate share of depreciation and amortization expense relating to equity method investments and excludes the portion of depreciation and amortization expense allocable to non-controlling interests. Impairment of assets includes impairments on cost and equity method
     investments recorded in other income and earnings from equity method investments, respectively. Effective in the second quarter 2016, the Company modified its presentation of Adjusted Income to include losses on charge-offs and dispositions of previously impaired or reserved assets to provide a more
     informative metric for investors to help evaluate our operating performance. Losses on charge-offs and dispositions represents the impact of charge-offs and dispositions realized during the period. These charge-offs and dispositions were taken on assets that were previously impaired for GAAP and
     reflected in net income but not in Adjusted Income.
