On February, 14 the board of directors of Steadfast Apartment REIT Inc. (STAR) declared an estimated value of $14.85 per share of the company\u2019s common stock, as of December 31, 2016. The company engaged CBRE Capital Advisors, Inc. to provide property-level and aggregate valuation analyses and a range for estimated value per share of the company\u2019s common stock.<\/p>\n
The Valuation Committee, upon receipt of CBRE\u2019s valuation report, concluded that the range between $13.91 and $15.76 for the company\u2019s estimated value per share proposed in the report was reasonable and recommended the board adopt $14.85 as the estimated value, representing a weighted average of the range reflecting the use of different discount rates in the sensitivity analysis. The increased NAV is 2.7 percent above the previous NAV per share of $14.46 as of December 31, 2015. CBRE consented to the REIT\u2019s description of the valuation process and the total appraised value of the REIT\u2019s real estate properties of $1.69 billion.<\/p>\n
According to the company\u2019s press release, \u201cThe estimated value per share was determined by STAR\u2019s board of directors based on independent, third-party firms that conducted property-level and aggregate valuation analyses on STAR\u2019s 34 apartment community properties plus cash and other assets, less the estimated value of outstanding mortgage debt and other liabilities, divided by the number of shares issued and outstanding on an adjusted fully diluted basis.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ella Neyland, president of Steadfast Apartment REIT said, “For a second year our estimated value per share reflects a notable increase after achieving what we believe was one of the non-traded REIT industry\u2019s best valuations relative to initial share price in the shortest time since escrow break. We believe that this continues to validate that our hands-on approach to property management, including making small aesthetic improvements to individual properties, can have an ongoing impact on the portfolio\u2019s overall value.” The REIT broke escrow on February 17, 2014.<\/p>\n
