PIEDMONT OFFICE REALTY TRUST

REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND YEAR-END RESULTS

Atlanta, Georgia, March 15, 2010 (Globe Newswire via COMTEX) – Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc. (“Piedmont” or the “Company”) (NYSE: PDM), an owner of Class A properties located primarily in the ten largest U.S. office markets, today announced its results for the fourth quarter and the year ended December 31, 2009.

Donald A. Miller, CFA, President and Chief Executive Officer stated, “In 2009 we executed over two million square feet of leases while maintaining a 78% retention rate, against the backdrop of a challenging economic and operating environment. Early in 2010, we successfully completed the process of transitioning Piedmont to a listed REIT which provides us with more flexible capital alternatives in the future. We believe we entered 2010 in a position of strength, with occupancy at 90%, an extremely solid balance sheet and a team committed to public market best practices.”

Results for the Fourth Quarter ended December 31, 2009

Piedmont reported net income available to common stockholders of $25.9 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter 2009 compared to net income of $31.6 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter 2008. Revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 totaled $151.0 million compared to $155.4 million in the prior year period. Funds from operations (FFO) for the quarter totaled $69.5 million, or $0.44 per diluted share, compared to $72.8 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, in fourth quarter 2008. Adjusted FFO (AFFO) in the fourth quarter totaled $47.7 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, as compared to $55.6 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter 2008.

The Company executed new and renewal leases for approximately 1.2 million square feet in the fourth quarter of 2009 with a 6.2% increase in rent per square foot on an accrual basis and a 3.3% decline on a cash basis.

Results for the Year ended December 31, 2009

Net income for the year ended December 31, 2009 totaled $74.7 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, compared to net income for the prior year of $131.3 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, respectively. Revenues for the year totaled $604.9 million compared to $622.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2008. FFO and FFO per share for the year totaled $239.3 million, or $1.51 per diluted share, compared to $294.9 million, or $1.85 per diluted share, in 2008. In the third quarter of 2009, the Company recognized impairment charges of approximately $37.6 million on assets primarily in its Detroit and New Jersey markets as reflected in both its net income and FFO. Adjusting for these impairment charges, the Company’s Core FFO for the year totaled $276.9 million, or $1.75 per diluted share, compared to $297.0 million, or $1.86 per diluted share, in 2008. AFFO for the year and prior year period totaled $227.3 million, or $1.43 per diluted share, and $253.6 million, or $1.59 per diluted share, respectively.


New leases executed during the year totaled roughly 2.3 million square feet. Rent per square foot for new leases increased 6.5% on an accrual basis as compared to a 1.4% decline on a cash basis.

On December 31, 2009, Piedmont’s office property portfolio was 90.1% occupied with a weighted average lease term of 5.9 years. Same store net operating income on a cash basis declined 3.6% from the prior year to $362.4 million in the face of a challenging operating environment. During the year the Company’s portfolio was unchanged as it neither bought nor sold assets.

Balance Sheet and Capital Markets Activities

At year end, Piedmont’s total assets were $4.4 billion with total debt of $1.5 billion. Total gross assets, exclusive of accumulated depreciation or amortization related to buildings and improvements and intangible lease assets, were $5.2 billion as of December 31, 2009. Total debt to total gross asset value was 29.1% and net debt (total debt less cash and cash equivalents) to core EBITDA was 4.3x. The Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio was 4.5x and it had cash and capacity on its unsecured credit line of approximately $385.6 million and no debt maturities in 2010.

Subsequent Events to December 31, 2009

On January 22, 2010, the Company filed an amendment to its charter to effect a one for three reverse stock split and a recapitalization of its common stock. The recapitalization was approved by the Company’s stockholders on January 20, 2010, resulting in a conversion of each original share of common stock into: (a) 1/12th of a share of Class A common stock; plus (b) 1/12th of a share of Class B-1 common stock; plus (c) 1/12th of a share of Class B-2 common stock; plus (d) 1/12th of a share of Class B-3 common stock. Cash was paid in lieu of fractional shares. Per share information in the aforementioned results and subsequently presented financial statements reflect this recapitalization.

On February 10, 2010, Piedmont’s Class A common stock became publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange, and on February 16, 2010, Piedmont issued approximately 12 million Class A common shares (7.5% of all outstanding common stock as of year-end). Net proceeds (after underwriters’ discount but before offering costs) of approximately $161.8 million from the offering were used to pay down its $500 million revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.

Commencing with the first quarter of 2010, Piedmont will be holding publicly telecast quarterly conference calls to discuss results and answer questions from the investment community. Call information will be released prior to the scheduled reporting date.

Forward Looking Statements

Certain statements contained in this press release constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). We intend for all such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe-harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, as applicable. Such information is subject to certain risks and uncertainties, as well as known and unknown risks, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or anticipated. Therefore, such statements are not intended to be a guarantee of our performance in future periods. Such forward-looking statements can generally be identified by our use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue” or similar words or phrases that are predictions of future events or trends and which do not relate solely to historical matters. Examples of such statements in this press release include the strength of the company’s leasing portfolio and the Company’s anticipated net income, depreciation and amortization, FFO, and FFO per share (diluted) for the year ending December 31, 2010.

The following are some of the factors that could cause the Company’s actual results and its expectations to differ materially from those described in the Company’s forward-looking statements: the Company’s ability to successfully identify and consummate suitable acquisitions; current adverse market and economic conditions; lease terminations or lease defaults, particularly by one of the Company’s large lead tenants; the impact of competition on the Company’s efforts to renew existing leases or re-let space; changes in the economies and other conditions of the office market in general and of the specific markets in which the Company operates; economic and regulatory changes; additional risks and costs associated with directly managing properties occupied by government tenants; the success of the Company’s real estate strategies and investment objectives; availability of financing; costs of complying with governmental laws and regulations; uncertainties associated with environmental and other regulatory


matters; the Company’s ability to continue to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code; and other factors detailed in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and other documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this press release.

(2)

Capital expenditures of a recurring nature related to tenant improvements and leasing commissions that do not incrementally enhance the underlying assets’ income generating capacity. We exclude first generation tenant improvements and leasing commissions from this measure.

*Definitions

Funds From Operations (“FFO”): FFO is calculated in accordance with the current National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) definition. NAREIT currently defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of property plus depreciation and amortization on real estate assets, and after the same adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Such factors can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates. FFO may provide valuable comparisons of operating performance between periods and with other REITs. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative measurement of our operating performance to net income. We believe that FFO is a beneficial indicator of the performance of an equity REIT. However, other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do; therefore, our computation of FFO may not be comparable to that of such other REITs.

Core Funds From Operations (“Core FFO”): We calculate Core FFO by starting with FFO, as defined by NAREIT, and adjust for certain non-recurring items such as impairment losses and other extraordinary items. Such items create significant earnings volatility. We believe Core FFO provides a meaningful measure of our operating performance and more predictability regarding future earnings potential. Core FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative measurement of our operating performance to net income; therefore, it should not be compared to other REITs’ equivalent to Core FFO.

Adjusted Funds From Operations (“AFFO”): AFFO is calculated by deducting from Core FFO non-incremental capital expenditures and adding back non-cash items including non-real estate depreciation, straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue, non-cash components of interest expense and compensation expense, and by making similar adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Although AFFO may not be comparable to that of other REITs, we believe it provides a meaningful indicator of our ability to fund cash needs and to make cash distributions to equity owners. AFFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative measurement of our operating performance to net income, as an alternative to net cash flows from operating activities or as a measure of our liquidity.

*Definitions

Core EBITDA: Core EBITDA is defined as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and incrementally adding back any impairment losses and other extraordinary items. We do not include impairment losses in this measure because we feel these types of losses create volatility in our earnings and make it difficult to determine the earnings generated by our ongoing business. We believe Core EBITDA is a reasonable measure of our liquidity. Core EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative measurement of cash flows from operating activities or liquidity. Other REITs may calculate Core EBITDA differently and our calculation should not be compared to that of other REITs.

Core Net Operating Income (“Core NOI”): Core NOI is defined as income from property operations with the add-back of corporate general and administrative expense, depreciation and amortization, and casualty and impairment losses and the deduction of income associated with lease terminations. We present this measure on a cash basis which eliminates the effects of straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue. The company uses this measure to assess its operating results and believes it is important in assessing operating performance. Core NOI is a non-GAAP measure which does not have any standard meaning prescribed by GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.

Same Store NOI: Same Store NOI is calculated as the Core NOI attributable to the properties owned or placed in service during the entire span of the current and prior year. Same Store NOI excludes amounts attributable to industrial properties. We present this measure on a cash basis which eliminates the effects of straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue. We believe Same Store NOI is an important measure of comparison of our stabilized properties’ operating performance. Other REITs may calculate Same Store NOI differently and our calculation should not be compared to that of other REITs.

As of December 31, 2009

 

 

Financial Results (1)

 

   

Funds from operations (FFO) for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 was $69.5M or $.44 per share (diluted) compared to $72.8M, or $.46 per share (diluted), for the same quarter in 2008. FFO for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 was $239.3M or $1.51 per share (diluted), compared to $294.9M, or $1.85 per share (diluted), for the same period in 2008. The decrease in FFO from 2008 to 2009 was primarily due to the recognition of impairment charges of approximately $37.6M in the third quarter of 2009 and the recognition of approximately $13.3M of lease termination income in 2008 compared to approximately $2.8M in 2009.

 

   

Core funds from operations (Core FFO) for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 was $69.5M or $.44 per share (diluted) compared to $72.8M, or $.46 per share (diluted), for the same quarter in 2008. Core FFO for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 was $276.9M or $1.75 per share (diluted), compared to $297.0M, or $1.86 per share (diluted), for the same period in 2008. The decrease in Core FFO from 2008 to 2009 was primarily due to the recognition of approximately $13.3M of lease termination income in 2008 compared to approximately $2.8M in 2009.

 

   

Adjusted funds from operations (AFFO) for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 was $47.7M or $.30 per share (diluted) compared to $55.6M, or $.35 per share (diluted), for the same quarter in 2008. AFFO for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 was $227.3M or $1.43 per share (diluted), compared to $253.6M, or $1.59 per share (diluted), for the same period in 2008. The decrease in AFFO from 2008 to 2009 was primarily due to the recognition of approximately $13.3M of lease termination income in 2008 compared to $2.8M in 2009.

 

   

During the quarter ended December 31, 2009, the company paid to stockholders a dividend in the amount of $0.315 per share for all classes of common stock.

Operations

 

   

Our portfolio was 90.1% occupied as of December 31, 2009 as compared to 90.1% and 91.7% at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

 

   

The weighted average remaining lease term of our portfolio was 5.9 years(2) as of December 31, 2009 as compared to 5.3 years and 5.2 years at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

In total, during that time period leases were signed for 2.3 million square feet, with an average committed capital cost of $3.41 per square foot per year of lease term. During the year ended December 31, 2009, we retained tenants for 78% of the square footage associated with expiring leases.

Financial Highlights

As of December 31, 2009

 

 

 

Financing and Capital Activity

 

   

As of December 31, 2009, our ratio of debt to total market capitalization was 36.3% (based upon the closing price of our Class A common stock of $16.75 per share on February 26, 2010), our ratio of debt to gross real estate assets was 33.1%, and our ratio of debt to total gross assets was 29.1%.

 

   

During the fourth quarter of 2009, the Company did not acquire or sell any properties.

Subsequent Events

 

   

On January 22, 2010, we filed an amendment to our charter to effect a recapitalization of our common stock as described further in our SEC filings. Upon the effectiveness of the recapitalization, each share of our outstanding common stock converted automatically into: (a) 1/12th of a share of our Class A common stock; plus (b) 1/12th of a share of our Class B-1 common stock; plus (c) 1/12th of a share of our Class B-2 common stock; plus (d) 1/12th of a share of our Class B-3 common stock. The recapitalization had the effect of a one-for-three reverse stock split. Per share information in this report is restated to reflect this recapitalization and historical information has been adjusted to provide comparable analysis.

 

   

Our Class A common stock initially listed on the New York Stock Exchange on February 10, 2010. On February 16, 2010, we issued approximately 12 million Class A common shares in an underwritten public offering. The shares were issued at a public offering price of $14.50 per share. Net proceeds (after underwriters’ discount but before offering costs) of approximately $161.8 million were used to pay down our $500M revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.

 

   

On February 17, 2010, the board of directors terminated the share redemption plan and the dividend reinvestment plan.

Guidance for 2010

(1)

Percent leased represents 73 office properties and excludes industrial and unconsolidated joint venture properties. Percent leased dropped in the second quarter of 2009 primarily due to Countrywide vacating 133K square feet at the end of their lease at our River Corporate Center building in Phoenix, AZ.

(2)

Total real estate operating expense is higher in the third quarter of 2009 primarily due to $35.1 million in impairment charges recognized on three wholly-owned assets.

(3)

Lease termination income is included in ‘other rental income’ on the income statement.

(4)

Impairment losses include both wholly-owned and unconsolidated joint ventures. Impairment losses of $35.1 million related to our wholly-owned assets are included in total real estate operating expense for the three months ended September 30, 2009.

(5)

Same Store NOI, Core EBITDA and AFFO exclude impairments on real estate assets.

(6)

The higher Same Store NOI during the first quarter of 2009 is primarily the result of the contractual rent payment schedule associated with the net lease of our 1901 Market Street building in Philadelphia, PA, which results in larger cash receipts during the first quarter of each year.

(7)

Net debt is calculated as total debt minus cash and cash equivalents.

(8)

Fixed charge coverage is calculated as Core EBITDA divided by interest expense, principal amortization, capitalized interest and preferred dividends. We had no capitalized interest, principal amortization or preferred dividends during the periods ended December 31, 2009.

 

(9)

Core FFO payout percentage is calculated as current period dividends divided by Core FFO.

(10)

AFFO payout percentage is calculated as current period dividends divided by AFFO.

(11)

Quarterly Core EBITDA is annualized for the purposes of this calculation.

(1) On November 24, 2009, our board of directors suspended the share redemption plan. On February 17, 2010, the board of directors terminated the share redemption plan as the need to provide interim liquidity through such a program was no longer necessary upon listing Piedmont’s Class A common stock on the NYSE. This item, therefore, will not be presented on the balance sheet in future periods.
(2) On January 22, 2010, we filed an amendment to our charter to effect a recapitalization of our common stock as described further in our SEC filings. Upon the effectiveness of the recapitalization, each share of our outstanding common stock converted automatically into : (a) 1/12th of a share of our Class A common stock; plus (b) 1/12th of a share of our Class B-1 common stock; plus (c) 1/12th of a share of our Class B-2 common stock; plus (d) 1/12th of a share of our Class B-3 common stock. The recapitalization had the effect of a one-for-three reverse stock split. Per share information in this report is restated to reflect this recapitalization and historical information has been adjusted to provide comparable analysis.

(1)

The increase in Same Store Net Operating Income for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2008 as compared to the same periods in 2007 is primarily related to a five-year lease renewal with New York state at 60 Broad Street in New York, NY. The decrease in Same Store Net Operating Income for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to the same periods in 2008 is primarily related to the cumulative effect of certain retroactive rent rate adjustments related to restructuring that same lease with New York state over a ten-year period.

(2)

The decrease in Same Store Net Operating Income for Other during the fourth quarter of 2009 and the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to the previous period is primarily related to Cingular Wireless vacating 314K square feet at our Glenridge Highlands II building in Atlanta, GA, and Countrywide vacating 133K square feet at our River Corporate Center building in Phoenix, AZ.

The company was not listed on a public exchange as of December 31, 2009. Our stock initially listed on the New York Stock Exchange on February 10, 2010. The common stock price of $16.75 in the “Modified December 31, 2009” column is the closing price of our Class A common stock on February 26, 2010, the last trading day of the month in which our stock initially listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

(2)

On January 22, 2010, we filed an amendment to our charter to effect a recapitalization of our common stock as described further in our SEC filings. Upon the effectiveness of the recapitalization, each share of our outstanding common stock converted automatically into: (a)  1/12th of a share of our Class A common stock; plus (b)  1/12th of a share of our Class B-1 common stock; plus (c)  1/12th of a share of our Class B-2 common stock; plus (d)  1/12 th of a share of our Class B-3 common stock. The recapitalization had the effect of a one-for-three reverse stock split. Per share information in this report is restated to reflect this recapitalization and historical information has been adjusted to provide comparable analysis.

(3)

Market value of common shares is defined as the total number of shares of common stock outstanding multiplied by our common stock price, as further qualified in footnote (1) above.

(4)

Total debt to total gross real estate assets ratio for the current period is defined as total debt divided by Piedmont’s gross real estate assets.

(5)

Total debt to total gross assets ratio for the current period is defined as total debt divided by gross assets. Gross assets is defined as total assets plus accumulated depreciation for buildings and improvements and accumulated amortization for intangible lease assets.

(1)

All of Piedmont’s outstanding debt as of December 31, 2009 is interest-only debt.

(2)

Amount represents the outstanding balance as of December 31, 2009 on the $500M Unsecured Line of Credit, which matures August 2011. Management intends to exercise the one-year extension option to extend the maturity date to August 2012. The payment of a 15 bp fee will be required to extend the term of this facility. Management intends to use the proceeds of its recent public stock offering to pay down the balance of the line of credit to zero by the end of the first quarter of 2010.

(3)

Rate is equal to the weighted average interest on all outstanding draws as of December 31, 2009. Piedmont may select from multiple interest rate options with each draw, including the prime rate and various length LIBOR locks. All LIBOR selections are subject to an additional spread of .475% over the selected rate based on Piedmont’s current credit rating.

(4)

The $250M Unsecured Term Loan has a stated variable rate; however, Piedmont entered into an interest rate swap which effectively fixes the interest rate of this facility at 4.97%. The $250M Unsecured Term Loan is, therefore, included in fixed debt. In January 2010, Piedmont entered into a forward interest rate swap for the extension period of the Unsecured Term Loan (July 2010 to June 2011), fixing the interest rate during the extension period at 2.36%.

(5)

Amount represents the outstanding balance as of December 31, 2009 on the $250M Unsecured Term Loan, which may be extended, upon payment of a 25 basis point fee, to June 2011. Piedmont gave notice on January 20, 2010 of its intent to extend this facility to June 2011.

Supplemental Definitions

 

 

Included in this section are management’s statements regarding certain non-GAAP financial measures provided in this supplemental package and reasons why management believes that these measures provide useful information to investors about the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures are presented on pages 27-29.

Adjusted Funds From Operations (“AFFO”): AFFO is calculated by deducting from Core FFO non-incremental capital expenditures and adding back non-cash items including non-real estate depreciation, straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue, non-cash components of interest expense and compensation expense, and by making similar adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Although AFFO may not be comparable to that of other REITs, we believe it provides a meaningful indicator of our ability to fund cash needs and to make cash distributions to equity owners. AFFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative measurement of our operating performance to net income, as an alternative to net cash flows from operating activities or as a measure of our liquidity.

Annualized Lease Revenue (“ALR”): ALR is calculated by multiplying (i) rental payments (defined as base rent plus operating expenses, if payable by the tenant on a monthly basis under the terms of a lease that have been executed, but excluding rental abatements and rental payments related to executed but not commenced leases for space that was covered by an existing lease), by (ii) 12. In instances in which contractual rents and operating expenses are collected on an annual, semi-annual, or quarterly basis, such amounts are multiplied by a factor of 1, 2, or 4, respectively, to calculate the annualized figure. For leases that have been executed but not commenced relating to un-leased space, ALR is calculated by multiplying (i) monthly base rental payments for the initial month of the lease term, by (ii) 12. Unless stated otherwise, this measure excludes our industrial properties and unconsolidated joint venture interests.

Core EBITDA: Core EBITDA is defined as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization as defined below and incrementally adding back any impairment losses and other extraordinary items. We do not include impairment losses in this measure because we feel these types of losses create volatility in our earnings and make it difficult to determine the earnings generated by our ongoing business. We believe Core EBITDA is a reasonable measure of our liquidity. Core EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative measurement of cash flows from operating activities or liquidity. Other REITs may calculate Core EBITDA differently and our calculation should not be compared to that of other REITs.

Core Funds From Operations (“Core FFO”): We calculate Core FFO by starting with FFO, as defined by NAREIT, and adjust for certain non-recurring items such as impairment losses and other extraordinary items. Such items create significant earnings volatility. We believe Core FFO provides a meaningful measure of our operating performance and more predictability regarding future earnings potential. Core FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative measurement of our operating performance to net income; therefore, it should not be compared to other REITs’ equivalent to Core FFO.

Core Net Operating Income (“Core NOI”): Core NOI is defined as income from property operations with the add-back of corporate general and administrative expense, depreciation and amortization, and casualty and impairment losses and the deduction of income associated with lease terminations. We present this measure on a cash basis which eliminates the effects of straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue. The company uses this measure to assess its operating results and believes it is important in assessing operating performance. Core NOI is a non-GAAP measure which does not have any standard meaning prescribed by GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.

EBITDA: EBITDA is defined as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We believe EBITDA is an appropriate measure of our ability to incur and service debt. EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities, as a measure of our liquidity or as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating activities. Other REITs may calculate EBITDA differently and our calculation should not be compared to that of other REITs.

Funds From Operations (“FFO”): FFO is calculated in accordance with the current National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) definition. NAREIT currently defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of property plus depreciation and amortization on real estate assets, and after the same adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Such factors can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates. FFO may provide valuable comparisons of operating performance between periods and with other REITs. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative measurement of our operating performance to net income. We believe that FFO is a beneficial indicator of the performance of an equity REIT. However, other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do; therefore, our computation of FFO may not be comparable to that of such other REITs.

Incremental Capital Expenditures: Defined as capital expenditures of a non-recurring nature that incrementally enhance the underlying assets’ income generating capacity. Tenant improvements, leasing commissions, building capital and deferred lease incentives incurred to lease space that was dark at acquisition, improvements associated with the expansion of a building and renovations that change the underlying classification of a building are included in this measure.

Supplemental Definitions

 

 

NOI from Unconsolidated Joint Ventures: NOI from Unconsolidated Joint Ventures is defined as Core NOI attributable to our interest in eight properties owned through unconsolidated partnerships. We present this measure on a cash basis which eliminates the effects of straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue. NOI from Unconsolidated Joint Ventures is a non-GAAP measure and therefore may not be comparable to similarly defined data provided by other REITs.

Non-Incremental Capital Expenditures: Defined as capital expenditures of a recurring nature related to tenant improvements and leasing commissions that do not incrementally enhance the underlying assets’ income generating capacity. We exclude first generation tenant improvements and leasing commissions from this measure.

Same Store NOI: Same Store NOI is calculated as the Core NOI attributable to the properties owned or placed in service during the entire span of the current and prior two years of reporting periods. Same Store NOI excludes amounts attributable to industrial properties. We present this measure on a cash basis which eliminates the effects of straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue. We believe Same Store NOI is an important measure of comparison of our stabilized properties’ operating performance. Other REITs may calculate Same Store NOI differently and our calculation should not be compared to that of other REITs.

Same Store Properties: Same Store Properties is defined as properties owned or placed in service during the entire span of the current and prior two years of reporting periods. Same Store Properties exclude industrial properties. We believe Same Store Properties is an important measure of comparison of our stabilized properties.
