NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2022

(Unaudited)

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 that offer storage spaces for lease, generally on a month-to-month basis, for personal and business use, ancillary activities such as tenant reinsurance, merchandise sales, and third party management, as well as the acquisition and development of additional self-storage space.

At June 30, 2022, we had direct and indirect equity interests in 2,807 self-storage facilities (with approximately 200.1 million net rentable square feet) located in 39 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.

At June 30, 2022, we owned a 35% common equity interest in Shurgard Self Storage SA (“Shurgard”), a public company traded on Euronext Brussels under the “SHUR” symbol, which owned 256 self-storage facilities (with approximately 14 million net rentable square feet) located in seven Western European countries, all operating under the Shurgard® name. We also owned a 41% common equity interest in PS Business Parks, Inc. (“PSB”), a REIT traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the “PSB” symbol, which owned 27 million net rentable square feet of commercial properties, primarily multi-tenant industrial, flex, and office space, located in six states.

Refer to Note 15. Subsequent Events for information regarding PSB’s closed merger transaction with affiliates of Blackstone Real Estate ("Blackstone") on July 20, 2022, which resulted in the sale of our 41% common equity interest in PSB in its entirety.

2.Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

We have prepared the accompanying interim consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements presented herein reflect all adjustments, primarily of a normal recurring nature, that are necessary to present fairly the interim consolidated financial statements.

Investment in PSB

Throughout all periods presented, we owned 7,158,354 shares of PSB’s common stock and 7,305,355 limited partnership units in an operating partnership controlled by PSB, representing a 41% common equity interest as of June 30, 2022 (41% as of December 31, 2021). The limited partnership units were convertible at our option, subject to certain conditions, on a one-for-one basis into PSB common stock.

Based upon the closing price at June 30, 2022 ($187.15 per share of PSB common stock), the shares and units we owned had a market value of approximately $2.7 billion. During each of the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we received cash distributions from PSB totaling $30.4 million.

As of June 30, 2022, PSB was a publicly held entity traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “PSB”.

Refer to Note 15. Subsequent Events for information regarding PSB’s closed merger transaction with Blackstone on July 20, 2022, which resulted in the sale of our 41% common equity interest in PSB in its entirety.

Investment in Shurgard

Throughout all periods presented, we effectively owned, directly and indirectly 31,268,459 Shurgard common shares, representing a 35% equity interest in Shurgard.

Based upon the closing price at June 30, 2022 (€44.45 per share of Shurgard common stock, at 1.045 exchange rate of US Dollars to the Euro), the shares we owned had a market value of approximately $1.5 billion.

Our equity in earnings of Shurgard comprised our equity share of Shurgard’s net income, less amortization of the Shurgard Basis Differential (defined below). We eliminated $0.6 million of intra-entity profits and losses for each of the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, representing our equity share of the trademark license fees that Shurgard pays to us for the use of the Shurgard® trademark. We classify the remaining license fees we receive from Shurgard as interest and other income on our income statement. During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we received cash dividends from Shurgard totaling $20.1 million and $21.5 million, respectively.

At June 30, 2022, our investment in Shurgard’s real estate assets included in investment in unconsolidated real estate entities exceeds our pro-rata share of the underlying amounts on Shurgard’s balance sheet by approximately $70.6 million ($74.7 million at December 31, 2021). This differential (the “Shurgard Basis Differential”) includes our cost basis adjustment in Shurgard’s real estate assets net of related deferred income taxes. The real estate assets basis differential is being amortized as a reduction to equity in earnings of the Unconsolidated Real Estate Entities. Such amortization totaled approximately $4.1 million and $4.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Shurgard is a publicly held entity trading on Euronext Brussels under the symbol “SHUR”.

6.Credit Facility

We have a revolving credit agreement (the “Credit Facility”) with a $500 million borrowing limit that matures on April 19, 2024. Amounts drawn on the Credit Facility bear annual interest at rates ranging from LIBOR plus 0.7% to LIBOR plus 1.350% depending upon the ratio of our Total Indebtedness to Gross Asset Value (as defined in the Credit Facility) (LIBOR plus 0.75% at June 30, 2022). We are also required to pay a quarterly facility fee ranging from 0.07% per annum to 0.25% per annum depending upon the ratio of our Total Indebtedness to our Gross Asset Value (0.10% per annum at June 30, 2022). At June 30, 2022 and August 4, 2022, we had no outstanding borrowings under this Credit Facility. We had undrawn standby letters of credit, which reduce our borrowing capacity, totaling $18.5 million at June 30, 2022 ($21.2 million at December 31, 2021).

U.S. Dollar Denominated Unsecured Notes

The U.S. Dollar Denominated Unsecured Notes have various financial covenants, with which we were in compliance at June 30, 2022. Included in these covenants are (a) a maximum Debt to Total Assets of 65% (approximately 15% at June 30, 2022) and (b) a minimum ratio of Adjusted EBITDA to Interest Expense of 1.5x (approximately 26x for the twelve months ended June 30, 2022) as well as covenants limiting the amount we can encumber our properties with mortgage debt.

Euro Denominated Unsecured Notes

Our Euro denominated unsecured notes (the “Euro Notes”) consist of four tranches: (i) €242.0 million issued to institutional investors on November 3, 2015, (ii) €100.0 million issued to institutional investors on April 12, 2016, (iii) €500.0 million issued in a public offering on January 24, 2020, and (iv) €700.0 million issued in a public offering on September 9, 2021. The Euro Notes have financial covenants similar to those of the U.S. Dollar Denominated Unsecured Notes.

We reflect changes in the U.S. Dollar equivalent of the amount payable including the associated interest, as a result of changes in foreign exchange rates as “Foreign currency exchange gain (loss)” on our income statement (gains of $102.9 million and $138.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, as compared to losses of $12.7 million and gains of $32.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively).

Mortgage Notes

We assumed our non-recourse mortgage debt in connection with property acquisitions, and we recorded such debt at fair value with any premium or discount to the stated note balance amortized using the effective interest method.

At June 30, 2022, the related contractual interest rates of our mortgage notes are fixed, ranging between 3.2% and 7.1%, and mature between November 1, 2022 and July 1, 2030.

At June 30, 2022, approximate principal maturities of our Notes Payable are as follows (amounts in thousands):

8.Noncontrolling Interests

We have noncontrolling interests related to several subsidiaries we consolidate of which we do not own 100% of the equity. At June 30, 2022, certain of these subsidiaries have issued 498,107 partnership units to third-parties that are convertible on a one-for-one basis (subject to certain limitations) into common shares of the Company at the option of the unitholder. These include a total of 54,137 partnership units of $19.9 million issued to third-parties in connection with our acquisition of self-storage properties in the six months ended June 30, 2022.

At March 31, 2022, we had 254,833 partnership units of $83.8 million classified as redeemable noncontrolling interests outside of total equity in our consolidated balance sheets, because the unitholders of these partnership units had the right to require redemption of their partnership units in cash if common shares of the Company were not publicly listed. In the second quarter of 2022, the related partnership agreements were amended with such cash redemption feature removed from these partnership units. We therefore reclassified $83.8 million from redeemable noncontrolling interests to noncontrolling interests in total equity during the three months ended June 30, 2022.

The holders of our Preferred Shares have general preference rights with respect to liquidation, quarterly distributions, and any accumulated unpaid distributions. Except as noted below, holders of the Preferred Shares do not have voting rights. In the event of a cumulative arrearage equal to six quarterly dividends, holders of all outstanding series of preferred shares (voting as a single class without regard to series) will have the right to elect two additional members to serve on our Board of Trustees (our “Board”) until the arrearage has been cured. At June 30, 2022, there were no dividends in arrears. The affirmative vote of at least 66.67% of the outstanding shares of a series of Preferred Shares is required for any material and adverse amendment to the terms of such series. The affirmative vote of at least 66.67% of the outstanding shares of all of our Preferred Shares, voting as a single class, is required to issue shares ranking senior to our Preferred Shares.

Except under certain conditions relating to the Company’s qualification as a REIT, the Preferred Shares are not redeemable prior to the dates indicated on the table above. On or after the respective dates, each of the series of Preferred Shares is redeemable at our option, in whole or in part, at $25.00 per depositary share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends. Holders of the Preferred Shares cannot require us to redeem such shares.

Upon issuance of our Preferred Shares, we classify the liquidation value as preferred equity on our consolidated balance sheet with any issuance costs recorded as a reduction to Paid-in capital.

On January 13, 2022, we issued 10.0 million depositary shares, each representing 0.001 of a share of our 4.100% Series S Preferred Shares, at an issuance price of $25.00 per depositary share, for a total of $250.0 million in gross proceeds, and we incurred $7.2 million in issuance costs.

10.Related Party Transactions

At June 30, 2022, Tamara Hughes Gustavson, a current member of our Board, held less than a 0.1% equity interest in, and is a manager of, a limited liability company that owns 65 self-storage facilities in Canada. Two of Ms. Gustavson's adult children owned the remaining equity interest in the limited liability company. 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 no ownership interest in these facilities and we do not 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 premium payments of approximately $1.1 million and $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

11.Share-Based Compensation

Under various share-based compensation plans and under terms established or modified by our Board or a committee thereof, we grant equity awards to trustees, officers, and key employees, including non-qualified options to purchase the Company’s common shares, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), deferred stock units (“DSUs”), and unrestricted common stock issued in lieu of trustee compensation.

We recorded share-based compensation expense associated with our equity awards in the various expense categories in the Consolidated Statements of Income as set forth in the following table. In addition, $1.1 million and $2.1 million share-based compensation cost was capitalized as real estate facilities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, as compared to $1.1 million and $2.2 million for the same periods of 2021, respectively.

Stock Options

We have service-based, performance-based and market-based stock options outstanding, which generally vest over 3 to 5 years, expire 10 years after the grant date, and have an exercise price equal to the closing trading price of our common shares on the grant date. New shares are issued for options exercised. Employees cannot require the Company to settle their award in cash.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, 142,683 stock options were granted, 54,466 options were exercised, and no options were forfeited. In addition, we expect an incremental 61,250 stock options to be paid out based on the estimated achievement of performance targets on our multi-year performance-based stock options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2021. A total of 3,189,418 stock options were outstanding at June 30, 2022 (3,039,951 at December 31, 2021).

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we granted 65,000 stock options in connection with non-management trustee compensation. For the remaining 77,683 stock options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2022, vesting is dependent upon meeting certain market conditions over the three-year period from January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2024, with continued service-based vesting through the first quarter of 2027. These stock options require relative achievement of the Company’s total shareholder return as compared to the weighted average total shareholder return of specified peer groups and can result in grantees earning up to 200% of the target options originally granted.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we incurred share-based compensation cost for outstanding stock options of $7.7 million and $11.6 million, respectively, as compared to $10.6 million and $15.0 million for the same periods in 2021.

Restricted Share Units

We have service-based, performance-based and market-based RSUs outstanding, which generally vest over 5 to 8 years from the grant date. Upon vesting, the grantee receives new common shares equal to the number of vested RSUs, less common shares withheld to satisfy the grantee’s statutory tax liabilities arising from the vesting. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, 26,579 RSUs were granted, 13,552 RSUs were forfeited and 69,515 RSUs vested. The vesting resulted in the issuance of 50,147 common shares. A total of 514,334 RSUs were outstanding at June 30, 2022 (570,822 at December 31, 2021).

Included in the RSUs granted during the six months ended June 30, 2022 are 21,985 RSUs where vesting is dependent upon meeting certain market conditions over a three-year period from January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2024, with continued service-based vesting through the first quarter of 2027. These RSUs require relative achievement of the Company’s total shareholder return as compared to the weighted average total shareholder return of the specified peer groups and can result in grantees earning up to 200% of the target RSUs originally granted.

Also included in the RSUs granted during the six months ended June 30, 2022 are 4,594 service-based RSUs.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we incurred share-based compensation cost for RSUs of $10.1 million and $20.9 million, respectively, as compared to $8.8 million and $19.8 million for the same periods in 2021.

Trustee Deferral Program

Non-management trustees may elect to receive all or a portion of their cash retainers in cash, shares of unrestricted common stock, or fully-vested DSUs to be settled at a specified future date. Shares of unrestricted stock and/or DSUs will be granted to the non-management trustee on the last day of each calendar quarter based on the cash retainer earned for that quarter and converted into a number of shares or units based on the applicable closing price of our common shares on such date. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we granted 1,095 DSUs and 195 shares of unrestricted common stock.

  1. Net Income per Common Share

We allocate net income to (i) noncontrolling interests based upon their contractual rights in the respective subsidiaries or for participating noncontrolling interests based upon their participation in both distributed and undistributed earnings of the Company, (ii) preferred shareholders, for distributions paid or payable, (iii) preferred shareholders, to the extent redemption cost exceeds the related original net issuance proceeds (an “preferred share redemption charge”), and (iv) restricted share units, for non-forfeitable dividends paid and adjusted for participation rights in undistributed earnings of the Company.

We calculate basic and diluted net income per common share based upon net income allocable to common shareholders, divided by (i) weighted average common shares for basic net income per common share, and (ii) weighted average common shares adjusted for the impact of dilutive stock options outstanding for diluted net income per common share. Potentially dilutive stock options representing 142,683 shares of common stock were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, because their effect would have been antidilutive.

The following table reconciles the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted net income per common shares computation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively (in thousands, except per share amounts):

  1. 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 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, 2022, there were approximately 1.2 million certificates held by our self-storage customers, representing aggregate coverage of approximately $5.5 billion.

Commitments

We have construction commitments representing future expected payments for construction under contract totaling $267.5 million at June 30, 2022. We expect to pay approximately $155.7 million in the remainder of 2022, $106.1 million in 2023 and $5.7 million in 2024 for these construction commitments.

We have future contractual payments on land, equipment and office space under various lease commitments totaling $64.9 million at June 30, 2022. We expect to pay approximately $1.4 million in the remainder of 2022, $3.1 million in each of 2023, 2024 and 2025, $3.0 million in 2026 and $51.2 million thereafter for these commitments.

  1. Subsequent Events

Subsequent to June 30, 2022, we acquired or were under contract to acquire 24 self-storage facilities across ten states with 1.7 million net rentable square feet, for $257.4 million. Additionally, on July 8, 2022, we acquired the commercial interests of PSB at three sites, totaling five properties, jointly occupied with our self-storage facilities located in Maryland and Virginia, for $47.0 million.

On April 24, 2022, PSB entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger whereby affiliates of Blackstone agreed to acquire all outstanding shares of PSB's common stock for $187.50 per share in cash. On July 20, 2022, PSB announced that it completed the merger transaction with Blackstone. Each share of PSB common stock and each common unit of partnership interest we held in PSB were converted into the right to receive the merger consideration of $187.50 per share or unit and a $0.22 prorated quarterly cash dividend per share or unit, for a total of $187.72 per share or unit. At the close of the merger transaction, we received a total of $2.7 billion of cash proceeds and recognized a $2.1 billion gain on the sale of our equity investment in PSB in the Consolidated Statement of Income for the third quarter of 2022.

In connection with the sale of our equity investment in PSB, on July 22, 2022, our Board of Trustees declared a special cash dividend of $13.15 per common share. The special dividend is payable on August 4, 2022 to shareholders of record as of August 1, 2022.

On July 26, 2022, the Company called for redemption on August 15, 2022 its 2.370% Senior Notes, with an aggregate outstanding principal amount of $500.0 million, due September 15, 2022.
