PART II

Market Information

Our common stock is traded under the symbol “EXR” on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") since our IPO on August 17, 2004. On February 19, 2020, the closing price of our common stock as reported by the NYSE was $107.48. At February 19, 2020, we had 371 holders of record of our common stock. Certain shares of the Company are held in “street” name and accordingly, the number of beneficial owners of such shares is not known or included in the foregoing number.

Holders of shares of common stock are entitled to receive distributions when declared by our board of directors out of any assets legally available for that purpose. As a REIT, we are required to distribute at least 90% of our “REIT taxable income,” which is generally equivalent to our net taxable ordinary income, determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid to our stockholders, annually in order to maintain our REIT qualification for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We have historically made regular quarterly distributions to our stockholders.

Information about our equity compensation plans is incorporated by reference in Item 12 of Part III of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

In November 2017, our board of directors authorized a three-year share repurchase program to allow us to acquire shares in aggregate up to $400.0 million. We have no current plans to repurchase shares. Any acquisition of shares will be through open market or privately negotiated transactions. There have been no repurchases since the inception of this plan.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

All unregistered sales of equity securities during the year ended December 31, 2019 have previously been disclosed in filings with the SEC.
