Important Information FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS: All statements in this presentation, other than statements of historical fact, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These statements include, but are not limited to, expectations regarding amount and timing of future acquisitions, developments, and redevelopments, estimates of future NOI from non-same-store properties, and estimates on impact of growth on our future results. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this presentation. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which may cause Public Storage’s actual results and performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. Factors and risks that may impact future results and performance are described from time to time in Public Storage’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including in Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in Public Storage’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. These risks include, but are not limited to, the following: general risks associated with the ownership and operation of real estate, including changes in demand, risk related to development, expansion and acquisition of self-storage facilities, potential liability for environmental contamination, natural disasters and adverse changes in laws and regulations governing property tax, real estate and zoning; risks associated with economic downturns in the national and local markets in which we operate; risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic (the “COVID Pandemic”) or similar events, including negative economic impacts which could reduce the demand for our facilities or increase tenant delinquencies and regulatory actions to close or limit access to our facilities, limit our ability to set rents or limit our ability to collect rent or evict delinquent tenants; the risk that there could be an out-migration of population from our markets which would reduce demand for our facilities; risks related to increased reliance on Google as a customer acquisition channel; risks associated with international operations including, but not limited to, unfavorable foreign currency rate fluctuations and changes in tax laws; the impact of the legal and regulatory environment, as well as national, state and local laws and regulations including, without limitation, those governing environmental issues, taxes, our tenant reinsurance business, and labor; risks due to ballot initiatives or other actions that could remove the protections of Proposition 13 with respect to our real estate and result in substantial increases in our assessed values and property tax bills in California; changes in United States federal or state tax laws related to the taxation of real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) and other corporations; security breaches or a failure of our networks, systems or technology could adversely impact our operations or our business, customer and employee relationships or result in fraudulent payments; risks associated with the self-insurance of certain business risks; and delays and cost overruns on our projects to develop new facilities or expand our existing facilities. Public Storage disclaims any obligation to update publicly or otherwise revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, new estimates, or other factors, events or circumstances after the date of this presentation, except where required by law. NON-GAAP MEASURES: This presentation contains non-GAAP measures, including FFO and NOI. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) or other GAAP financial measures, as an indicator of financial performance and is not an alternative to, or more meaningful than, cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of liquidity. Non-GAAP measures have limitations as they do not include all items of income and expense that affect operations and, accordingly, should always be considered as supplemental financial results to those presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, other REITs may compute these measures differently, so comparisons among REITs may not be helpful. Please refer to our SEC periodic reports for definitions of our non-GAAP measures and reconciliations to the nearest GAAP measures. 2Important Information FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS: All statements in this presentation, other than statements of historical fact, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
