Inclusive of this potential acquisition, ARCT V has assembled a $2.11 billion portfolio to be purchased at an average capitalization rate exceeding 7.5%, consisting of properties that are either already owned by ARCT V or subject to executed purchase agreements or letters of intent. The portfolio includes $29.5 million of owned properties, $1.96 billion of properties under executed purchase and sale agreements and $121.9 million of properties under executed letters of intent. When fully assembled, the portfolio is expected to be approximately 70% net leased to investment grade tenants (by revenue), span 23 distinct industries, include 40 distinct tenants and contain a weighted average remaining lease term of 12.2 years.
Nicholas S. Schorsch, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of ARCT V, explained, "This purchase will enable us to substantially complete our acquisition stage. At the same time, we will surpass our stated goal of constructing a portfolio of properties that is at least 50% investment grade, leased on a long-term basis and well-diversified by industry, geography and tenancy. When completed, our $2.11 billion of assets is expected to generate 70% of its income from investment grade-rated tenants and is expected to be purchased at a mid-7 cap rate. Our acquisitions team has exceeded expectations, completing our buying phase early in the operations of ARCT V, and efficiently match-funding deployment of capital in a manner consistent with the Company's investment strategy. Across its net lease platform, the American Realty Capital acquisitions team has efficiently deployed $10 billion in net lease acquisitions."
