About CapLease, Inc.
CapLease, Inc., a real estate investment trust (REIT), engages in the ownership and financing of primarily single tenant commercial real estate assets subject to long-term leases to primarily investment grade tenants.
The company invests at various levels of the capital structure of net lease properties, including equity investments in real estate (owned real properties), debt investments (mortgage loans and net lease mortgage backed securities) and mezzanine investments secured by net leased real estate collateral.
The company focuses on properties that are subject to a net lease, a lease that requires the tenant (rather than the landlord) to pay for, or pay for and perform, all or substantially all aspects of the property and its operations during the lease term. Tenants underlying its net lease investments are primarily public companies or their significant operating subsidiaries and governmental and quasi-governmental entities with investment grade credit ratings.
Segments
The company conducts its business through two operating segments: operating net lease real estate (including its investments in owned real properties), and lending investments (including its loan investments and its investments in securities).
Portfolio
Owned Properties
The company invests in commercial property types (office, retail or industrial), and its investment underwriting includes an analysis of the credit quality of the underlying tenant and the strength of the related lease. It also analyzes the propertys real estate fundamentals, including location and type of the property, vacancy rates and trends in vacancy rates in the propertys market, rental rates with in the propertys market, recent sales prices and demographics in the propertys market.
The company targets properties that have one or more of the following characteristics - included in primary metropolitan markets, such as New York/New Jersey, Chicago and Washington D.C./Northern Virginia; fungible asset type that would facilitate a re-let of the property if the tenant does not renew; barriers to entry in the propertys market, such as zoning restrictions or limited land for future development; and core facility of the tenant.
Loan Investments
The companys loan products are targeted to owners of real properties net leased on a long-term basis primarily to investment grade tenants. Its existing loan investments include long-term mortgage loans, corporate credit notes and various mezzanine and other investments.
Long-Term Mortgage Loans: The company offers long-term amortizing or insured balloon loans secured by first mortgages on properties subject to long-term net leases.
Corporate Credit Notes: The company also offers a 10-year non-fully amortizing loan product for net lease properties that do not meet the criteria for its long-term mortgage loan product. It splits these loans into two notes, a non-fully amortizing real estate note which it generally sells promptly following origination, and amortizing corporate credit note, which it retains in its portfolio.
Mezzanine and Other Investments: The company also offers various other loan and loan type products to owners of net leased properties, including mezzanine loans, bridge loans, development loans and preferred equity financings. These investments are typically short-term in nature and are often subordinate to other financing on the property. It makes these investments in connection with the development of a property or an expected recapitalization of the property.
Commercial Mortgage-Backed and Other Real Estate Securities

SWOT Analysis
SWOT, which stands for Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats, is an analytical framework that identifies the internal and external factors that are favorable and unfavorable for a company.
Enhanced SWOT Analysis
Enhanced SWOT is a 3×3 grid that arranges strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats into one scheme:
- How to use the strengths to take advantage of the opportunities?
- How to use the strengths to reduce likelihood and impact of the threats?
- How to overcome the weaknesses that obstruct taking advantage of the opportunities?
- How to overcome the weaknesses that can make the threats a reality?
Upon answering these questions a company can develop a project plan to improve its business performance.
PESTEL Analysis
PESTEL (also termed as PESTLE) is an ideal tool to strategically analyze what influence different outside factors – political, economic, sociocultural, technological, environmental and legal – exert on a business to later chart its long term targets.
Being part of the external analysis when carrying out a strategic assessment or performing a market study, PESTEL gives an overview of diverse macro-environmental factors that any company should thoughtfully consider. By perceiving these outside environments, businesses can maximally benefit from the opportunities while minimizing the threats to the organization.
Key Factors Examined by PESTEL Analysis:
- Political – What opportunities and pressures are brought by political bodies and what is the degree of public regulations’ impact on the business?
- Economic – What economic policies, trends and structures are expected to affect the organization, what is this influence’s degree?
- Sociological – What cultural and societal aspects will work upon the demand for the business’s products and operations?
- Technological – What impact do the technological aspects, innovations, incentives and barriers have on the organization?
- Environmental – What environmental and ecological facets, both locally and farther afield, are likely to predetermine the business?
- Legal – What laws and legislation will exert influence on the style the business is carried out?
IFE, EFE, IE Matrices
The Internal Factor Evaluation matrix (IFE matrix) is a strategic management tool helping audit or evaluate major weaknesses and strengths in a business’s functional areas. In addition, IFE matrix serves as a basis for identifying and assessing relationships amongst those areas. The IFE matrix is utilised in strategy formulation.
The External Factor Evaluation matrix (EFE matrix) is a tool of strategic management that is typically utilised to assess current market conditions. It is an ideal instrument for visualising and prioritising the threats and opportunities a firm is facing.
The essential difference between the above mentioned matrices lies in the type of factors incorporated in the model; whilst the latter is engaged in internal factors, the former deals exceptionally with external factors – those exposed to social, political, economic, legal, etc. external forces.
Being a continuation of the EFE matrix and IFE matrix models, the Internal External matrix (IE matrix) rests upon an investigation of external and internal business factors integrated into one suggestive model.
Porter Five Forces Analysis
The Porter’s five forces analysis studies the industry of operation and helps the company find new sources of competitive advantage. The analysis surveys an industry through five major questions:
- What composes a threat of substitute products and services?
- Is there a threat of new competitors entering the market?
- What is the intensity of competitive rivalry?
- How big is the bargaining power of buyers?
- How significant is the bargaining power of suppliers?
VRIO Analysis
VRIO stands for Value, Rarity, Imitability, Organization. This analysis helps to evaluate all company’s resources and capabilities and bring them together into one aggregate table that includes:
- Tangible resources
- Financial
- Physical
- Technological
- Organizational
- Intangible resources
- Human
- Innovation and Creativity
- Reputation
- Organizational capabilities
The result of the analysis gives a clear picture of company’s competitive and economic implications, answering the questions if the resources mentioned above are:
- Valuable?
- Rare?
- Costly to imitate?
- Organized properly?
