2021-02-18 21:25
Part I [Business](index=7&type=section&id=Item%201.%20Business) ILPT is a REIT specializing in industrial and logistics properties, pursuing growth through rent resets and e-commerce-focused acquisitions - | Metric | Wholly Owned Properties | Unconsolidated Joint Venture (22% equity interest) | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **Number of Properties** | 289 | 12 | | **Rentable Square Feet** | ~34.9 million | ~9.2 million | | **Occupancy** | ~98.5% | 100% | | **Weighted Avg. Lease Term** | ~9.5 years | 7.1 years | | **Geographic Split (Annualized Rental Revenues)** | Hawaii: 50.7%, Mainland: 49.3% | N/A | - The company's growth strategy is twofold: internal growth through rent resets (especially in Hawaii) and fixed lease escalations, and external growth by acquiring industrial and logistics properties that serve the e-commerce sector[36](index=36&type=chunk)[37](index=37&type=chunk)[39](index=39&type=chunk) - During the COVID-19 pandemic, ILPT granted rent deferrals of **$3.2 million** to tenants representing **9.6%** of annualized rental revenues, collecting approximately **97.6%** of contractual rents due after accounting for these deferrals[47](index=47&type=chunk) - ILPT has no employees and relies on RMR Group LLC (RMR LLC) for all personnel and services required to operate its business, under long-term business and property management agreements[48](index=48&type=chunk)[67](index=67&type=chunk) [Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations](index=14&type=section&id=MATERIAL%20UNITED%20STATES%20FEDERAL%20INCOME%20TAX%20CONSIDERATIONS) This section details the complex requirements for ILPT to qualify and maintain its REIT status and the tax implications for shareholders - The company has elected to be taxed as a **REIT**, which generally exempts it from federal income tax on distributed net income, provided it adheres to strict qualification tests[80](index=80&type=chunk)[81](index=81&type=chunk) - To maintain REIT status, ILPT must annually distribute at least **90%** of its REIT taxable income and satisfy two gross income tests: at least **75%** of gross income must be from real property investments, and at least **95%** must be from a combination of real property income and other passive income sources like dividends and interest[101](index=101&type=chunk)[115](index=115&type=chunk) - Distributions to shareholders are generally not eligible for the preferential tax rates on qualified dividend income, typically taxed at ordinary income rates for noncorporate U.S. shareholders, though eligible for a deduction under Section 199A of the IRC through 2025[81](index=81&type=chunk)[130](index=130&type=chunk) [ERISA and Other Retirement Plan Considerations](index=32&type=section&id=ERISA%20PLANS%2C%20KEOGH%20PLANS%20AND%20INDIVIDUAL%20RETIREMENT%20ACCOUNTS) This section addresses fiduciary considerations for ERISA and other retirement plans investing in ILPT, noting that ILPT's shares are publicly offered securities - Fiduciaries of ERISA and other retirement plans must ensure that an investment in ILPT shares satisfies diversification, prudence, and other fiduciary responsibilities under applicable laws[162](index=162&type=chunk)[163](index=163&type=chunk) - ILPT's assets are not expected to be deemed "plan assets" of investing ERISA or Non-ERISA plans because its shares qualify as "publicly offered securities," which are widely held and freely transferable[166](index=166&type=chunk)[172](index=172&type=chunk) [Risk Factors](index=34&type=section&id=Item%201A.%20Risk%20Factors) This section outlines significant risks including tenant dependency, geographic concentration, COVID-19 impacts, debt, and external management conflicts - Business risks include dependence on tenants' financial health, potential inability to renew leases on favorable terms, and concentration in the industrial/logistics sector and single-tenant properties[177](index=177&type=chunk)[178](index=178&type=chunk)[181](index=181&type=chunk) - A significant number of properties are located on Oahu, Hawaii, exposing the company to geographic concentration risks such as natural disasters and local economic conditions[182](index=182&type=chunk) - The COVID-19 pandemic poses risks of tenant defaults, reduced demand for logistics space if economic conditions worsen, and potential disruptions to leasing activities[183](index=183&type=chunk)[184](index=184&type=chunk) - The company's relationship with its external manager, RMR LLC, presents risks of potential conflicts of interest, as RMR LLC manages other entities with similar investment objectives and its fee structure may not always align with shareholder interests[225](index=225&type=chunk)[229](index=229&type=chunk) - Financial risks include the inability to access reasonably priced capital, failure to comply with debt covenants, and adverse effects from changes in market interest rates, including the phase-out of LIBOR[202](index=202&type=chunk)[207](index=207&type=chunk)[208](index=208&type=chunk) [Properties](index=52&type=section&id=Item%202.%20Properties) ILPT's wholly owned portfolio comprises 289 properties across 31 states, totaling 34.9 million square feet, with a significant concentration in Hawaii -

During 2020, the company entered new and renewal leases for **1.1 million sq. ft.** at rental rates **14.7%** higher than prior rates, with rent resets for **1.9 million sq. ft.** in Hawaii resulting in rates **20.1%** higher than prior rates[275](index=275&type=chunk) -
