PSA Overview

Public Storage is a Maryland real estate investment trust ("REIT") engaged in the ownership, development, and operation of self-storage facilities and other related operations including tenant reinsurance, third-party self-storage management and bridge lending to third-party self-storage owners. We are the industry leading owner of self-storage properties, with one of the most recognized brands in the self-storage industry, including our ubiquitous orange color. On August 14, 2023, we completed a reorganization that resulted in us holding the interests in our facilities through an operating partnership, Public Storage OP, L.P. and its subsidiaries including Public Storage Operating Company, formerly known as Public Storage, which was organized in 1980. This structure is commonly referred to as an umbrella partnership REIT, or UPREIT. After the reorganization, the primary assets of the parent entity, Public Storage, are general partner and limited partner interests in Public Storage OP, L.P. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to "Public Storage" mean the parent entity, Public Storage, references to "PSA OP" mean Public Storage OP, L.P., and references to "PSOC" mean Public Storage Operating Company.
