We are extremely pleased with our full year results which reflect significant year-over-year growth across the board in Core FFO, NOI, same store NOI and same store revenue. From an operational standpoint, full year total revenue increased approximately 74% to $134 million and our full year total portfolio average rent per occupied square foot increased approximately 8% to $10.62. Our fourth quarter performance was also strong as Core FFO per share increased 14.3%, same store NOI increased 10.7% and same store total revenue increased 6.5%. During the quarter we acquired 16 additional self storage properties for approximately $70 million.
Mr. Nordhagen, continued, "We recently announced the addition of our new, seventh Participating Regional Operator ("PRO"), Hide-Away Storage Services, Inc. We look forward to Hide-Away joining us, as they bring almost 40 years of industry experience and expertise to our PRO team and Best Practices committee. Since the completion of our IPO related transactions in the second quarter of 2015, NSA’s value strategy has been hitting on all cylinders. For the last three quarters, same store NOI growth has averaged 12% above the prior year through the continued implementation of our best practices programs. And taking full advantage of our differentiated growth strategy, we have announced a total of almost $380 million of new acquisitions since July 1, 2015, including significant contributions from all three of our external growth drivers - our captive pipeline acquisitions, our third party acquisitions and now our new PRO integration. We believe this combination is unique in our industry and positions us to deliver very attractive shareholder returns over the long-term."

The increases in FFO and Core FFO were primarily the result of integrating multiple self storage property acquisitions, same store NOI growth and reductions in interest expense and acquisition costs.
Net income was $5.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2015, compared to a net loss of $2.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2014. This increase was also primarily the result of integrating new property acquisitions and same store NOI growth, combined with reductions in interest expense and acquisition costs, partially offset by an increase in depreciation and amortization.
Full Year 2015

The increases in FFO and Core FFO were primarily driven by the integration of multiple self storage property acquisitions, a strong increase in same store NOI and reductions in interest expense and organizational and offering expenses, partially offset by an increase in general and administrative expenses.
Net income was $4.8 million for the full year 2015, compared to a net loss of $16.4 million for the full year of 2014. The increase was primarily the result of new property acquisitions, strong growth in same store NOI, and reductions in acquisition costs, interest expense and organizational and offering expenses, partially offset by increases in depreciation and amortization and general and administrative expenses.

NSA combines OP units and DownREIT OP units with common shares because, after the applicable lock-out periods, OP units in the Company's operating partnership are redeemable for cash or, at NSA's option, exchangeable for common shares on a one-for-one basis and DownREIT OP units are also redeemable for cash or, at NSA's option, exchangeable for OP units in our operating partnership on a one-for-one basis, subject to certain adjustments in each case. Subordinated performance units, DownREIT subordinated performance units, and LTIP units may also, under certain circumstances, be convertible into or exchangeable for common shares (or other units that are convertible into or exchangeable for common shares). Subordinated performance units and DownREIT subordinated performance units have been excluded from the calculations of FFO and Core FFO per share and unit as their effect is anti-dilutive. |

Amount for the year ended December 31, 2014 includes 2,060,711 OP units outstanding for the entire period which were issued in connection with the contribution of 65 self storage properties on April 1, 2014 by SecurCare Portfolio Holdings, LLC and SecurCare Value Properties, Ltd. (collectively, "NSA Predecessor"), entities whose principal owner is the Company's chief executive officer. For financial reporting purposes, NSA Predecessor contributions are reported as a reorganization of entities under common control whereby the contributed self storage properties are included in the Company's results of operations for the entirety of the year ended December 31, 2014 and have been recorded in the Company's financial statements at NSA Predecessor's depreciated historical cost basis. |

LTIP units have been excluded from the calculations of weighted average shares and units outstanding prior to April 28, 2015 because such units did not participate in distributions prior to the Company’s initial public offering. |
