Piedmont Office Realty Trust Reports First Quarter 2019 Results
ATLANTA, May 1, 2019--Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc. ("Piedmont" or the "Company") (NYSE:PDM), an owner of Class A office properties in select sub-markets located primarily within eight major Eastern U.S. office markets, today announced its results for the quarter ended March 31, 2019.
Highlights for the Quarter Ended March 31, 2019:
• | Reported net income applicable to common stockholders of $50.2 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, as compared with $57.8 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2018; |
• | Achieved Core Funds From Operations ("Core FFO") of $0.45 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, as compared with $0.43 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2018; |
• | Sold One Independence Square, an approximately 334,000 square foot office building located in the Southwest submarket of Washington, D.C., for approximately $170 million, or $508 psf. |
• | Reported a 3.7% increase in Same Store NOI- Cash Basis as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2018; |
• | Completed approximately 322,000 square feet of leasing during the quarter ended March 31, 2019, with approximately 43% related to new leasing and a 9.4% roll up in cash rents; |
• | Additionally, signed a 4-month extension on approximately 480,000 square feet with the State of New York in anticipation of a longer term, 18-year, renewal; |
• | Repurchased 728,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an average price of $17.14 per share; and |
• | Announced the retirement of Donald A. Miller, CFA as CEO, effective on June 30, 2019, and the promotion of C. Brent Smith to CEO on that date. |
Donald A. Miller, CFA, Chief Executive Officer, said, "In light of my announced retirement, which is the culmination of a thoughtful succession planning process, I am proud of what we have achieved over the last 12 years together in transforming our portfolio of office properties into eight strategic markets. I am also blessed to be stepping down while the economy, as well as the Company, is performing at a high level. As a top-quartile performer in terms of total shareholder return in the office REIT sector over the last five years, this quarter’s operating results are excellent, with strong leasing activity across all our markets, the orderly disposition of another fully-stabilized, non-strategic asset at a significant gain, and continued growth in rental rates and same-store net operating income.”
Results for the Quarter ended March 31, 2019
Piedmont recognized net income applicable to common stockholders for the three months ended March 31, 2019 of $50.2 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, as compared with $57.8 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The current quarter's results include a $37.9 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, gain on sale primarily associated with the sale of One Independence Square in Washington, D.C, whereas the first quarter of 2018 included a $45.2 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, gain associated with the sale of certain non-core assets in a 14-property portfolio. Additionally, when compared to the previous year, the current quarter's results per share reflect increased operating income as a result of higher overall occupancy in the portfolio during the three months ended March 31, 2019.
Funds From Operations ("FFO"), which removes the impact of the gains on sales mentioned above (as well as depreciation and amortization), was $0.45 per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2019, as compared with $0.41 per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Core FFO, which further removes the prior year's first quarter $(1.7) million loss on extinguishment of debt, was $0.45 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 as compared with $0.43 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2018. Despite significant net disposition activity since January 1, 2018, both FFO and Core FFO per diluted share increased due to higher occupancy levels and increased rental rates during the three months ended March 31, 2019.
Net income applicable to common stockholders per share, FFO per share, and Core FFO per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 were all additionally favorably impacted by a 10.0 million share decrease in our weighted average shares outstanding as a result of share repurchase activity pursuant to the Company's stock repurchase program since January 1, 2018.
Total revenues and property operating costs were $132.9 million and $51.8 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $129.9 million and $51.9 million, respectively, for the first quarter of 2018. Decreases in both revenues and property operating costs as a result of property sales were substantially offset by increases due to properties acquired, higher overall rental rates, and increased occupancy.
General and administrative expense was $9.4 million for the first quarter of 2019 compared to $6.6 million for the same period in 2018, with the $2.8 million increase primarily attributable to increased accruals for potential performance-based compensation as a result of an increase in the Company's stock price during the current period.
Leasing Update
During the three months ended March 31, 2019, Piedmont entered into a 4-month extension with its largest tenant, New York State, at its 60 Broad Street building in downtown Manhattan prior to the tenant’s lease expiring on March 31, 2019. Since the lease renewal negotiations were not anticipated to conclude prior to the original lease expiration date, the lease was extended on a short-term basis to allow for an orderly resolution to the final outstanding items under negotiation. The Company continues to partner with New York State, and expects to enter into, an approximate 18-year lease renewal for a significant majority of the tenant’s current approximately 480,000 square feet of space in the building.
Additionally, the Company completed approximately 322,000 square feet of leasing in its other markets during the first quarter, with approximately 43% of that activity related to new tenant leases. Highlights included the following:
• | Atlanta: IG Design Group executed a renewal and expansion totaling 28,000 sf for 6+ years through 2025 at Glenridge Highlands One. Also in Atlanta, Continental Casualty Company renewed 16,000 sf for 5+ years, and Greensky Trade Credit expanded its current lease through 2022 by approximately 13,000 sf at Glenridge Highlands Two. |
• | Boston: At the Company’s 25 Burlington Mall Rd property, Merrill Lynch renewed its 21,000 sf lease for 5 more years through 2025. |
• | Washington, D.C.: Venesco-SaiTech J.V. executed a new, five-year lease to 2024 for 15,000 sf at Piedmont’s 400 Virginia Avenue building. |
• | Chicago: At 500 West Monroe Street, Antares Capital, L.P. signed a 14,000 sf new lease for 8+ years through 2027. |
• | Dallas: Uniden America Corporation signed a renewal lease for approximately 14,000 sf for five more years through 2025 at 161 Corporate Center in Las Colinas. |
• | Orlando: Cowen Inc. executed a 12,000 sf new lease for 6+ years through 2025 at the 400 TownPark building in Lake Mary, and in downtown Orlando at 200 Orange Ave., Orlando Health, Inc. renewed its 10,000 sf lease through 2022. |
The Company's reported leased percentage remained at approximately 93.3%, consistent with December 31, 2018. Weighted average remaining lease term was 6.4 years as of March 31, 2019, as compared to 6.6 years as of December 31, 2018. Same Store NOI increased 3.7% and 3.1% on a cash and accrual basis, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018. With increased overall occupancy, Same Store NOI on a cash basis was favorably impacted by the expiration of lease abatements and $1.4 million more of net termination fee income received during the three months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to the first quarter of the previous year. Same Store NOI on an accrual basis was additionally favorably impacted by the commencement of leases throughout the portfolio. Details outlining Piedmont's largest upcoming lease expirations, the status of certain major leasing activity, and a schedule of the largest lease abatement periods can be found in the Company's quarterly supplemental information package available at www.piedmontreit.com.
Transactional Update
As previously reported, during the three months ended March 31, 2019, Piedmont completed the $170 million sale of the 334,000 square foot One Independence Square building located in the Southwest sub-market of Washington, D.C. and recorded a $33.2 million gain on sale.
Second Quarter 2019 Dividend Declaration
On May 1, 2019, the board of directors of Piedmont declared dividends for the second quarter of 2019 in the amount of $0.21 per share on its common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 31, 2019, payable on June 21, 2019.
Subsequent Event
On April 25, 2019, Piedmont entered into a binding contract to acquire Galleria 100, an 18-story, approximately 414,000 square foot, Class A office building located within the Galleria development in Atlanta's Cumberland/Galleria office submarket where Piedmont has two existing assets, Galleria 200 and 300.
Guidance for 2019
Based on management's expectations, the Company affirms its previous guidance for full-year 2019 as follows:
(in millions, except per share data) | Low | High | ||||
Net Income | $84 | - | $87 | |||
Add: | ||||||
Depreciation | 110 | - | 114 | |||
Amortization | 62 | - | 65 | |||
Less: Gain on Sale of Real Estate Assets | (37 | ) | - | (39) | ||
NAREIT and Core FFO applicable to common stock | $ | 219 | - | $227 | ||
NAREIT and Core FFO per diluted share | $1.74 | - | $1.80 | |||
These estimates reflect management's view of current market conditions and incorporate certain economic and operational assumptions and projections, including the impacts from the disposition of One Independence Square and acquisition of Galleria 100, discussed above. The guidance ignores
the effect of any speculative acquisition or disposition activity. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates based on a variety of factors, particularly the timing of any future acquisitions and dispositions, as well as those factors discussed under "Forward Looking Statements" below.
Note that individual quarters may fluctuate on both a cash basis and an accrual basis due to lease commencements and expirations, abatement periods, the timing of repairs and maintenance, capital expenditures, capital markets activities, seasonal general and administrative expenses, accrued potential performance-based compensation expenses, and one-time revenue or expense events. In addition, the Company's guidance is based on information available to management as of the date of this release.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the presentation of the Company’s financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), this release and the accompanying quarterly supplemental information as of and for the period ended March 31, 2019 contain certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, including FFO, Core FFO, AFFO, Same Store NOI (cash and accrual basis), Property NOI (cash and accrual basis), EBITDAre, and Core EBITDA. Definitions and reconciliations of each of these non-GAAP measures to their most comparable GAAP metrics are included below and in the accompanying quarterly supplemental information.
Each of the non-GAAP measures included in this release and the accompanying quarterly supplemental financial information has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of the Company’s results calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because not all companies use identical calculations, the Company’s presentation of non-GAAP measures in this release and the accompanying quarterly supplemental information may not be comparable to
similarly titled measures disclosed by other companies, including other REITs. The Company may also change the calculation of any of the non-GAAP measures included in this news release and the accompanying supplemental financial information from time to time in light of its then existing operations.

(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. Tenant improvements, leasing commissions, building capital and deferred lease incentives incurred to lease space that was vacant at acquisition, leasing costs for spaces vacant for greater than one year, leasing costs for spaces at newly acquired properties for which in-place leases expire shortly after acquisition, improvements associated with the expansion of a building and renovations that change the underlying classification of a building are excluded from this measure.
*Definitions:
Funds From Operations ("FFO"): The Company calculates FFO 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 and impairment losses, adding back depreciation and amortization on real estate assets, and after the same adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. These adjustments can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it excludes the effects of depreciation, amortization and gains or losses from sales of real estate, all of which are based on historical costs, which implicitly assumes that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time. The Company also believes that FFO can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and with other REITs. However, other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of FFO may not be comparable to that of such other REITs. |
Core Funds From Operations ("Core FFO"): The Company calculates Core FFO by starting with FFO, as defined by NAREIT, and adjusting for gains or losses on the extinguishment of swaps and/or debt, acquisition-related expenses (that are not capitalized) and any significant non-recurring items. Core FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Core FFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it excludes the effects of certain items which can create significant earnings volatility, but which do not directly relate to the Company’s core business operations. As a result, the Company believes that Core FFO can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and provides a more meaningful predictor of future earnings potential. Other REITs may not define Core FFO in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Core FFO may not be comparable to that of other REITs. |
Adjusted Funds From Operations ("AFFO"): The Company calculates AFFO by starting with Core FFO and adjusting for non-incremental capital expenditures and acquisition-related costs (that are not capitalized) and then adding back non-cash items including: non-real estate depreciation, straight-lined rents and fair value lease adjustments, non-cash components of interest expense and compensation expense, and by making similar adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. AFFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that AFFO is helpful to investors as a meaningful supplemental comparative performance measure of our ability to make incremental capital investments. Other REITs may not define AFFO in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of AFFO may not be comparable to that of other REITs. |

(1)Other investments consist of our investments in active redevelopment and development projects, land, and recently completed redevelopment and development projects for which some portion of operating expenses were capitalized during the current or prior reporting periods. The operating results from Two Pierce Place in Itasca, IL are included in this line item.
*Definitions:
EBITDAre: The Company calculates EBITDAre in accordance with the current National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) definition. NAREIT currently defines EBITDAre as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) adjusted for gains or losses from sales of property, impairment losses, depreciation on real estate assets, amortization on real estate assets, interest expense and taxes, along with the same adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Some of the adjustments mentioned can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates. EBITDAre is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that EBITDAre is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it provides a metric for understanding the Company’s results from ongoing operations without taking into account the effects of non-cash expenses (such as depreciation and amortization) and capitalization and capital structure expenses (such as interest expense and taxes). The Company also believes that EBITDAre can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and with other REITs. However, other REITs may not define EBITDAre in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of EBITDAre may not be comparable to that of such other REITs.
Core EBITDA: The Company calculates Core EBITDA as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and incrementally removing any impairment losses, gains or losses from sales of property and other significant infrequent items that create volatility within our earnings and make it difficult to determine the earnings generated by our core ongoing business. Core EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the
Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Core EBITDA is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it provides a metric for understanding the performance of the Company’s results from ongoing operations without taking into account the effects of non-cash expenses (such as depreciation and amortization), as well as items that are not part of normal day-to-day operations of the Company’s business. Other REITs may not define Core EBITDA in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Core EBITDA may not be comparable to that of other REITs.
Property Net Operating Income ("Property NOI"): The Company calculates Property NOI by starting with Core EBITDA and adjusting for general and administrative expense, income associated with property management performed by Piedmont for other organizations and other income or expense items for the Company, such as interest income from loan investments or costs from the pursuit of non-consummated transactions. The Company may present this measure on an accrual basis or a cash basis. When presented on a cash basis, the effects of straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue are also eliminated. Property NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Property NOI is helpful to investors as a supplemental comparative performance measure of income generated by its properties alone without the administrative overhead of the Company. Other REITs may not define Property NOI in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Property NOI may not be comparable to that of other REITs.
Same Store Net Operating Income ("Same Store NOI"): The Company calculates Same Store NOI as Property NOI attributable to the properties for which the following criteria were met during the entire span of the current and prior year reporting periods: (i) they were owned, (ii) they were not under development / redevelopment, and (iii) none of the operating expenses for which were capitalized. Same Store NOI also excludes amounts attributable to unconsolidated joint venture and land assets. The Company may present this measure on an accrual basis or a cash basis. When presented on a cash basis, the effects of straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue are also eliminated. Same Store NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Same Store NOI is helpful to investors as a supplemental comparative performance measure of the income generated from the same group of properties from one period to the next. Other REITs may not define Same Store NOI in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Same Store NOI may not be comparable to that of other REITs.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period financial statement presentation. In addition, many of the schedules herein contain rounding to the nearest thousands or millions and, therefore, the schedules may not total due to this rounding convention. |
To supplement the presentation of the Company’s financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this report contains certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, including FFO, Core FFO, AFFO, Same Store NOI, Property NOI, EBITDAre and Core EBITDA. Definitions and reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to their most comparable GAAP metrics are included beginning on page 38. Each of the non-GAAP measures included in this report has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of the Company’s results calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because not all companies use identical calculations, the Company’s presentation of non-GAAP measures in this report may not be comparable to similarly titled measures disclosed by other companies, including other REITs. The Company may also change the calculation of any of the non-GAAP measures included in this report from time to time in light of its then existing operations. |
In certain presentations herein, the Company has provided disaggregated financial and operational data (for example, some pieces of information are displayed by geography, industry, or lease expiration year) for informational purposes for readers; however, regardless of the various presentation approaches taken herein, we continue to evaluate and utilize our consolidated financial results in making operating decisions, allocating resources, and assessing our performance. |

Financial Highlights
As of March 31, 2019
Financial Results (1)
Net income attributable to Piedmont for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 was $50.2 million, or $0.40 per share (diluted), compared to $57.8 million, or $0.42 per share (diluted), for the same quarter in 2018. The decrease in net income attributable to Piedmont for the three months ended March 31, 2019 when compared to the same period in 2018 was principally due to the net effect of gains and losses related to disposition transactions closed during the respective periods. During the first quarter of 2019, the Company recognized a large gain on the sale of a single asset, while during the first quarter of 2018, the Company recognized net gains on a multiple property disposition.
Funds from operations (FFO) for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 was $56.3 million, or $0.45 per share (diluted), compared to $56.3 million, or $0.41 per share (diluted), for the same quarter in 2018. The increase in FFO per share for the three months ended March 31, 2019 when compared to the same period in 2018 is attributable to increased occupancy in the portfolio and the positive effect of the Company's stock repurchases completed since the beginning of 2018, amounting to approximately 16.5 million shares, or about $302 million.
Core funds from operations (Core FFO) for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 was $56.3 million, or $0.45 per share (diluted), compared to $58.0 million, or $0.43 per share (diluted), for the same quarter in 2018. The decrease in dollar amount of Core FFO for the three months ended March 31, 2019 when compared to the same period in 2018 was primarily attributable to net disposition activity completed since the beginning of 2018. The per share results for the first quarter of 2019 were positively influenced by the Company's share repurchase activity described above for changes in FFO per share.
Adjusted funds from operations (AFFO) for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 was $51.8 million, compared to $45.8 million for the same quarter in 2018. The increase in AFFO for the three months ended March 31, 2019 when compared to the same period in 2018 was primarily due to the lower amount of non-incremental capital expenditures during the first quarter of 2019 when compared to 2018.
Operations and Leasing
Within its portfolio, Piedmont has 53 office properties located primarily in eight major office markets in the eastern portion of the United States and one redevelopment property. The Company's redevelopment property is Two Pierce Place, an approximately 487,000 square foot office property located in the Chicago market. Due to its redevelopment status, this property is excluded from Piedmont's in-service operating portfolio for the purposes of statistical reporting throughout this supplemental report. For additional information regarding this redevelopment project, please refer to page 37 of this report.
On a square footage leased basis, our total in-service office portfolio was 93.3% leased as of March 31, 2019, the same leased percentage as at December 31, 2018. Please refer to page 26 for additional leased percentage information.
The weighted average remaining lease term of our in-service portfolio was 6.4 years(2) as of March 31, 2019 as compared to 6.6 years at December 31, 2018. Our weighted average adjusted Annualized Lease Revenue(3) per square foot for our in service portfolio was $36.36 as of March 31, 2019.
(1) | |
(2) | Remaining lease term (after taking into account leases for vacant spaces which had been executed but not commenced as of March 31, 2019) is weighted based on Annualized Lease Revenue, as defined on page 38. |
(3) | Annualized Lease Revenue is adjusted for buildings at which tenants pay operating expenses directly to include such operating expenses as if they were paid by the Company and reimbursed by the tenants as under a typical net lease structure, thereby reflecting the true gross rental rate for those buildings. |
5
During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company completed approximately 322,000 square feet of leasing activity. Excluded from the leasing activity was an approximate 480,000 square foot, four-month lease extension with the Company's largest tenant from a rental income perspective, New York State, at 60 Broad Street in downtown Manhattan. Since the lease renewal negotiations with New York State were not anticipated to conclude prior to the original lease expiration date of March 31, 2019, the lease was extended on a short-term basis to allow for an orderly resolution to the final outstanding items under negotiation. The Company continues to partner with New York State on an approximate 18-year lease renewal for a significant majority of the tenant’s current space of nearly 480,000 square feet in the building. The leasing activity for the quarter included approximately 138,000 square feet of new tenant leasing. The average committed capital for tenant improvements and leasing commissions per square foot per year of lease term for all leasing activity completed during the period (net of commitment expirations during the period) was $4.07 (see page 32).
Of the 322,000 square feet of leases executed during the three months ended March 31, 2019, nine leases were greater than 10,000 square feet at our consolidated office properties. Information on those leases is set forth below.

At the end of the first quarter of 2019, there were two tenants whose leases individually contributed greater than 1% in Annualized Lease Revenue expiring during the eighteen month period following March 31, 2019. Information regarding the leasing status of the spaces associated with these tenants' leases is presented below.
Tenant | Property | Property Location | Net Square Footage Expiring | Net Percentage of Current Quarter Annualized Lease Revenue Expiring (%) | Expiration | Current Leasing Status |
State of New York | 60 Broad Street | New York, NY | 476,996 | 5.1% | Q3 2019 | The Company continues to partner with New York State on an approximate 18-year lease renewal for a significant majority of the tenant’s current space. Since the lease renewal negotiations with the tenant were not anticipated to conclude prior to the original lease expiration date of March 31, 2019, the lease was extended by four months to allow for an orderly resolution to the final outstanding items under negotiation. |
City of New York | 60 Broad Street | New York, NY | 313,022 | 2.2% | Q2 2020 | The Company is in advanced discussions with the tenant regarding a long-term lease renewal. |
Future Lease Commencements and Abatements
As of March 31, 2019, our overall leased percentage was 93.3% and our economic leased percentage was 85.9%(1). The difference between overall leased percentage and economic leased percentage is attributable to two factors:
1) | leases which have been contractually entered into for currently vacant spaces but have not yet commenced (amounting to 522,345 square feet of leases as of March 31, 2019, or 3.3% of the portfolio); and |
2) | leases which have commenced but are within rental abatement periods (amounting to 715,166 square feet of leases as of March 31, 2019, or a 4.1% impact to leased percentage on an economic basis). |
(1) | As detailed on the following page, abatements associated with large leases totaling nearly 482,000 square feet will expire by the beginning of Q3 2019, resulting in an approximately 3.0% contribution to economic leased percentage. |
6
The gap between reported leased percentage and economic leased percentage will fluctuate over time as (1) new leases are signed for vacant spaces (with the gap this quarter being heavily influenced by the Transocean lease for 301,000 square feet of vacant space at Enclave Place in Houston, TX, attributable for 1.9% of the 7.4% gap), (2) abatements associated with existing or newly executed leases commence and expire (see below for more detail on existing large leases with abatements), and/or (3) properties are bought and sold. Consequently, the absolute level of economic leased percentage and its growth over time are the primary management metrics and not the spread between reported and economic leased percentages at any one point in time. As additional leasing is completed for vacant space and the overall portfolio leased percentage increases, the economic leased percentage will naturally follow as new leases commence and any related abatement periods expire. Since the beginning of 2014, the reported leased percentage has increased 6.6% and the economic leased percentage has increased 11.9%.
Piedmont has leases with many large corporate office space users. The average size of lease in the Company's portfolio is near 20,000 square feet. Due to the large size and length of term of new leases, Piedmont typically signs leases several months in advance of their anticipated lease commencement dates. Presented below is a schedule of uncommenced leases greater than 50,000 square feet and their anticipated commencement dates. Lease renewals are excluded from this schedule.

New leases frequently provide rental abatement concessions to tenants and these abatements typically occur at the beginning of the leases. The currently reported cash net operating income and AFFO understate the Company's long-term cash generation ability from existing signed leases due to several leases being in abatement periods. Presented below are two schedules related to abatements. The first is a schedule of leases with abatements of 50,000 square feet or greater that expired during the first quarter of 2019, and the second is a schedule of leases with abatements of 50,000 square feet or greater that are either currently under abatement or will be so within the next twelve months.

(1) | The lease is scheduled to commence in Q3 2019. GAAP revenue recognition is anticipated to commence in Q4 2019, conditional upon the substantial completion of the tenant's improvements to the space. The rental abatement period is fixed and will not vary based upon the timing of the commencement of GAAP revenue recognition. |
(2) | The commencement of the Gartner lease is occurring in three phases. The first phase of 98,134 square feet commenced during the third quarter of 2018. The remaining two phases presented in this table have not yet commenced. The first phase of 98,134 square feet is receiving ten months of rental abatements and the second phase consisting of 27,198 square feet will receive two months of rental abatements. The third phase will not receive any rental abatements. |
(3) | Represents the commencement date of the renewal term. |
(4) | The amount of square feet under abatement varies over time; see additional detail under the column entitled Remaining Abatement Schedule. |
(5) | Represents the commencement date of the renewal term and a 63,145 square foot expansion. An additional expansion of 28,550 square feet will occur in Q2 2019. |
(6) | The tenant's existing lease at another building in Houston terminates in 2021. The tenant desired to have access to its new space at Enclave Place on an accelerated basis without duplicative rental charges. Piedmont was able to negotiate into the lease other economic and credit-supporting terms as a result of this longer potential free rent period. |

Financing and Capital Activity
Among Piedmont's stated strategic objectives is to harvest capital through the disposition of non-core assets and assets in which the Company believes full value has been reached and to use the sale proceeds to:
• | invest in real estate assets with higher overall return prospects and/or strategic merits in one of our identified operating markets where we have a significant operating presence with a competitive advantage and that otherwise meet our strategic criteria; |
• | reduce leverage levels by repaying outstanding debt; and/or |
• | repurchase Company stock when it is believed to be trading at a significant discount to NAV. |
Information on the Company's recent accomplishments in furtherance of its strategic objectives is presented below.
Dispositions
On February 28, 2019, Piedmont completed the sale of One Independence Square, a nine-story, 94% leased, 334,000 square foot office building located in Washington, DC, for $170.0 million, or $508 per square foot. The Company recorded a $33.2 million gain on the sale of the asset. The transaction allowed Piedmont to reduce its exposure to the non-strategic Southwest submarket in Washington, DC.
Acquisitions
There were no acquisitions completed during the quarter ended March 31, 2019.
For additional information on acquisitions and dispositions completed over the previous eighteen months, please refer to page 36.
Development / Redevelopment
Although it was in discussions with a few prospective tenants regarding build-to-suit opportunities, the Company had no ground-up developments underway as of March 31, 2019.
During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company substantially completed the construction phase of a $14 million redevelopment at Two Pierce Place in Itasca, IL. The project included a renovation of the property's lobby and exterior plaza, an elevator modernization, the enhancement and addition of building amenities, and the acquisition and improvement of additional land to increase the building's parking ratio. The building is currently in the lease-up phase of the redevelopment project; due to its redevelopment status, this property is excluded from Piedmont's in-service operating portfolio for the purposes of statistical reporting throughout this supplemental report.
During the fourth quarter of 2018, Piedmont commenced an approximately $8.5 million project to add a tenant-only amenity center at US Bancorp Center in Minneapolis, MN. The amenity center, with approximately 24-foot ceilings and large-windowed views of the downtown skyline, is being constructed on the thirty-first floor of the building in former storage space and will provide tenants a full fitness center, a tenant lounge and conference rooms. As of March 31, 2019, the project is on schedule and the costs incurred are within budget.
Additional detail on the Company's developable land parcels, all of which are located adjacent to existing Piedmont properties, as well as information on its redevelopment project, can be found on page 37.
Finance
As of March 31, 2019, our ratio of total debt to total gross assets was 34.9%. This debt ratio is based on total principal amount outstanding for our various loans at March 31, 2019.
As of March 31, 2019, our average net debt to Core EBITDA ratio was 5.8 x, unchanged from the same measure at December 31, 2018.
Stock Repurchase Program
During the first quarter of 2019, the Company repurchased approximately 0.7 million shares of common stock under its share repurchase program at an average price of $17.14 per share, or approximately $12.5 million (before the consideration of transaction costs). Since the stock repurchase program began in December 2011, the Company has repurchased approximately 48.7 million shares at an average price of $17.70 per share, or approximately $862.0 million in aggregate (before the consideration of transaction costs). As of quarter end, Board-approved capacity remaining for additional repurchases totaled approximately $74.1 million under the stock repurchase plan. Repurchases of stock under the program will be made at the Company's discretion and will depend on market conditions, other investment opportunities and other factors that the Company deems relevant.
Dividend
On February 5, 2019, the Board of Directors of Piedmont declared a dividend for the first quarter of 2019 in the amount of $0.21 per common share outstanding to stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 28, 2019. The dividend was paid on March 15, 2019. The Company's dividend payout percentage (for dividends declared) for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was 47% of Core FFO and 51% of AFFO.

Subsequent Events
On May 1, 2019, the Board of Directors of Piedmont declared a dividend for the second quarter of 2019 in the amount of $0.21 per common share outstanding to stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 31, 2019. The dividend is expected to be paid on June 21, 2019.
On April 25, 2019, the Company entered into a binding agreement to purchase Galleria 100, a 414,000 square foot, 18-story, 89% occupied, Class A office building and adjacent developable land parcel, in Atlanta, GA. The property is located within the urban, master-planned Galleria development, an amenity-rich project in Atlanta's Northwest submarket with walkable access to hotels, dining, retail, residences and SunTrust Park (home to the Atlanta Braves). Additionally, the project offers excellent visibility and accessibility to two of Atlanta's major thoroughfares, Interstates 75 and 285. The acquisition of the property will add to Piedmont's holdings in the development, currently consisting of Galleria 200 and Galleria 300, and will result in the Company's ownership of over 1.2 million square feet in the project, providing it with greater market share in the submarket's Class A product, and allowing it to realize additional marketing, operating and tenancy synergies. The closing is anticipated to occur during May 2019.
Guidance for 2019
The following financial guidance for calendar year 2019 remains unchanged from previously provided information and is based upon management's expectations at this time. This financial guidance includes the effects of the disposition of One Independence Square and the acquisition of Galleria 100, however, it does not include the potential effects of any additional acquisition or disposition activity that may be completed during the year.

These estimates reflect management’s view of current market conditions and incorporate certain economic and operational assumptions and projections. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Note that individual quarters may fluctuate on both a cash basis and an accrual basis due to the timing of lease commencements and expirations, abatement periods, repairs and maintenance, capital expenditures, capital markets activities, seasonal general and administrative expenses, accrued potential performance-based compensation expenses, and one-time revenue or expense events. In addition, the Company’s guidance is based on information available to management as of the date of this supplemental report.

(1) | Please refer to page 26 for additional leased percentage information. |
(2) | Economic leased percentage excludes the square footage associated with executed but not commenced leases for currently vacant spaces and the square footage associated with tenants receiving rental abatements (after proportional adjustments for tenants receiving only partial rental abatements). Due to variations in rental abatement structures whereby some abatements are provided for the first few months of each lease year as opposed to being provided entirely at the beginning of the lease, there will be variability to the economic leased percentage over time as abatements commence and expire. Please see the Future Lease Commencements and Abatements section of Financial Highlights for details on near-term abatements for large leases. |
(3) | Dividends are reflected in the quarter in which they were declared. |
(4) | Core EBITDA margin is calculated as Core EBITDA divided by total revenues (including revenues associated with discontinued operations). |

The Company had no preferred dividends during any of the periods presented; the Company had capitalized interest of $527,551 for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, $526,032 for the quarter ended December 31, 2018, $374,868 for the quarter ended September 30, 2018, $346,488 for the quarter ended June 30, 2018, and $106,873 for the quarter ended March 31, 2018; the Company had principal amortization of $165,936 for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, $327,313 for the quarter ended December 31, 2018, $161,405 for the quarter ended September 30, 2018, $239,331 for the quarter ended June 30, 2018, and $236,041 for the quarter ended March 31, 2018. |
(6) | For the purposes of this calculation, we annualize the period's Core EBITDA and use the average daily balance of debt outstanding during the period, less cash and cash equivalents and escrow deposits and restricted cash as of the end of the period. |
(7) | Net debt is calculated as the total principal amount of debt outstanding minus cash and cash equivalents and escrow deposits and restricted cash as of the end of the period. |

(1) | All of Piedmont's outstanding debt as of March 31, 2019 was interest-only debt with the exception of the $29.5 million of outstanding debt associated with 5 Wall Street located in Burlington, MA. |
(2) | Weighted average stated interest rate is calculated based upon the principal amounts outstanding. |
(3) | The amount of floating rate debt represents the $85 million outstanding balance as of March 31, 2019 on the $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility and the $100 million in principal amount of the $250 million unsecured term loan that remained unhedged as of March 31, 2019. The $250 million unsecured term loan that closed in 2018 has a stated variable rate. However, Piedmont entered into interest rate swap agreements to effectively fix the interest rate for a portion of the principal balance of the loan. The Company entered into $100 million in notional amount of seven-year interest rate swap agreements and $50 million in notional amount of two-year interest rate swap agreements, resulting in an effectively fixed interest rate a) on $150 million of the term loan at 4.11% through March 29, 2020 and b) on $100 million of the term loan at 4.21% from March 30, 2020 through the loan's maturity date of March 31, 2025, assuming no credit rating change for the Company. Piedmont's $300 million unsecured term loan has a stated variable interest rate; however, the interest rate has been effectively fixed through interest rate swap agreements. The $300 million unsecured term loan, therefore, is presented herein as a fixed rate loan. Additional details can be found on the following page. |
(4) | The initial maturity date of the $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility is September 30, 2022; however, there are two, six-month extension options available under the facility providing for a final extended maturity date of September 29, 2023. For the purposes of this schedule, we reflect the maturity date of the facility as the initial maturity date of September 2022. |

(5) | Weighted average is based on the principal amounts outstanding and interest rates at March 31, 2019. |
(6) | The $300 million unsecured term loan that closed in 2011 has a stated variable rate; however, Piedmont entered into interest rate swap agreements which effectively fix the interest rate on this loan at 3.20% through January 15, 2020, assuming no credit rating change for the Company. |

The base interest rate associated with each LIBOR interest period selection is subject to an additional spread (0.90% as of March 31, 2019) based on Piedmont’s then current credit rating. |
(9) | The $350 million unsecured senior notes were offered for sale at 99.601% of the principal amount. The resulting effective cost of the financing is approximately 3.45% before the consideration of transaction costs and proceeds from interest rate hedges. After the application of proceeds from interest rate hedges, the effective cost of the financing is approximately 3.43%. |
(10) | The $400 million unsecured senior notes were offered for sale at 99.791% of the principal amount.

(1) | The population analyzed consists of consolidated office leases executed during the period with lease terms of greater than one year. Leases associated with storage spaces, management offices, newly acquired assets for which there is less than one year of operating history, and unconsolidated joint venture assets are excluded from this analysis. |
(2) | For the purposes of this analysis, the last twelve months of cash paying rents of the previous leases are compared to the first twelve months of cash paying rents of the new leases in order to calculate the percentage change. |
(3) | For the purposes of this analysis, the accrual basis rents of the previous leases are compared to the accrual basis rents of the new leases in order to calculate the percentage change. For newly signed leases which have variations in accrual basis rents, whether because of known future expansions, contractions, lease expense recovery structure changes, or other similar reasons, the weighted average of such varying accrual basis rents is used for the purposes of this analysis. |
(4) | For leases under which a tenant may use, at its discretion, a portion of its tenant improvement allowance for expenses other than those related to improvements to its space, an assumption is made that the tenant elects to use any such portion of its tenant improvement allowance for improvements to its space prior to the commencement of its lease, unless the Company is notified otherwise by the tenant. This assumption is made based upon historical usage patterns of tenant improvement allowances by the Company's tenants. |
(5) | Represents leases signed at our consolidated office assets that do not qualify for inclusion in the analysis primarily because the spaces for which the new leases were signed had been vacant for more than one year. |

NOTE: | This information is presented for our consolidated office assets only and excludes activity associated with storage and license spaces. |
(1) | For leases under which a tenant may use, at its discretion, a portion of its tenant improvement allowance for expenses other than those related to improvements to its space, an assumption is made that the tenant elects to use any such portion of its tenant improvement allowance for improvements to its space prior to the commencement of its lease, unless the Company is notified otherwise by the tenant. This assumption is made based upon historical usage patterns of tenant improvement allowances by the Company's tenants. |
(2) | During 2018, we completed two large leasing transactions in the Houston, TX market with large capital commitments: a 254,000 square foot lease renewal and expansion with Schlumberger Technology Corporation at 1430 Enclave Parkway and a 301,000 square foot, full-building lease with Transocean Offshore Deepwater Drilling at Enclave Place. If the costs associated with those leases were to be removed from the average committed capital cost calculation, the average committed capital cost per square foot per year of lease term for renewal leases, new leases and total leases completed during the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 would be $5.27, $6.02, and $5.70, respectively. |
(3) | The average committed capital cost per square foot per year of lease term for renewal leases completed during 2015 was higher than our historical performance on this measure primarily as a result of four large lease renewals, two of which were completed in the Washington, DC, market, that involved higher capital commitments. If the costs associated with those renewals were to be removed from the average committed capital cost calculation, the average committed capital cost per square foot per year of lease term for renewal leases completed during 2015 would be $3.33. |
(4) | During 2014, we completed one large, 15-year lease renewal and expansion with a significant capital commitment with Jones Lang LaSalle at Aon Center in Chicago, IL. If the costs associated with this lease were to be removed from the average committed capital cost calculation, the average committed capital cost per square foot per year of lease term for renewal leases and total leases completed during 2014 would be $2.12 and $4.47, respectively. |
(5) | During 2015, we completed seven new leases in Washington, DC, and Chicago, IL, comprising 680,035 square feet, with above-average capital commitments. If the costs associated with those new leases were to be removed from the average committed capital cost calculation, the average committed capital cost per square foot per year of lease term for new leases and total leases completed during 2015 would be $5.42 and $4.88, respectively. |
(6) | The Company has historically reported the maximum amount of capital to which it committed in leasing transactions as of the signing of the leases with no subsequent updates for variations and/or changes in tenants' uses of tenant improvement allowances. Many times, tenants do not use the full allowance provided in their leases or let portions of their tenant improvement allowances expire. In an effort to provide additional clarity on the actual cost of completed leasing transactions, tenant improvement allowances that expired or became no longer available to tenants are disclosed in this section and are deducted from the capital commitments per square foot of leased space in the periods in which they expired in an effort to provide a better estimation of leasing transaction costs over time. |

Supplemental Definitions
Included below are definitions of various terms used throughout this supplemental report, including definitions of certain non-GAAP financial measures and the reasons why the Company’s management believes these measures provide useful information to investors about the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Reconciliations of any non-GAAP financial measures defined below are included beginning on page 40. |
Adjusted Funds From Operations ("AFFO"): The Company calculates AFFO by starting with Core FFO and adjusting for non-incremental capital expenditures and acquisition-related costs (that are not capitalized) and then adding back non-cash items including: non-real estate depreciation, straight-lined rents and fair value lease adjustments, non-cash components of interest expense and compensation expense, and by making similar adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. AFFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that AFFO is helpful to investors as a meaningful supplemental comparative performance measure of our ability to make incremental capital investments. Other REITs may not define AFFO in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of AFFO may not be comparable to that of other REITs. |
Annualized Lease Revenue ("ALR"): ALR is calculated by multiplying (i) rental payments (defined as base rent plus operating expense reimbursements, if payable by the tenant on a monthly basis under the terms of a lease that has been executed, but excluding a) rental abatements and b) 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 or operating expense reimbursements 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) the monthly base rental payment (excluding abatements) plus any operating expense reimbursements for the initial month of the lease term, by (ii) 12. Unless stated otherwise, this measure excludes revenues associated with our unconsolidated joint venture properties and development / re-development properties, if any. |
Core EBITDA: The Company calculates Core EBITDA as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and incrementally removing any impairment losses, gains or losses from sales of property and other significant infrequent items that create volatility within our earnings and make it difficult to determine the earnings generated by our core ongoing business. Core EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Core EBITDA is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it provides a metric for understanding the performance of the Company’s results from ongoing operations without taking into account the effects of non-cash expenses (such as depreciation and amortization), as well as items that are not part of normal day-to-day operations of the Company’s business. Other REITs may not define Core EBITDA in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Core EBITDA may not be comparable to that of other REITs. |
Core Funds From Operations ("Core FFO"): The Company calculates Core FFO by starting with FFO, as defined by NAREIT, and adjusting for gains or losses on the extinguishment of swaps and/or debt, acquisition-related expenses (that are not capitalized) and any significant non-recurring items. Core FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Core FFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it excludes the effects of certain items which can create significant earnings volatility, but which do not directly relate to the Company’s core business operations. As a result, the Company believes that Core FFO can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and provides a more meaningful predictor of future earnings potential. Other REITs may not define Core FFO in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Core FFO may not be comparable to that of other REITs. |
EBITDA: EBITDA is defined as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. |
EBITDAre: The Company calculates EBITDAre in accordance with the current National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) definition. NAREIT currently defines EBITDAre as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) adjusted for gains or losses from sales of property, impairment losses, depreciation on real estate assets, amortization on real estate assets, interest expense and taxes, along with the same adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Some of the adjustments mentioned can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates. EBITDAre is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that EBITDAre is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it provides a metric for understanding the Company’s results from ongoing operations without taking into account the effects of non-cash expenses (such as depreciation and amortization) and capitalization and capital structure expenses (such as interest expense and taxes). The Company also believes that EBITDAre can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and with other REITs. However, other REITs may not define EBITDAre in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of EBITDAre may not be comparable to that of such other REITs. |
Funds From Operations ("FFO"): The Company calculates FFO 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 and impairment losses, adding back depreciation and amortization on real estate assets, and after the same adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. These adjustments can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it excludes the effects of depreciation, amortization and gains or losses from sales of real estate, all of which are based on historical costs, which implicitly assumes that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time. The Company also believes that FFO can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and with other REITs. However, other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of FFO may not be comparable to that of such other REITs. |
Gross Assets: Gross Assets is defined as total assets with the add-back of accumulated depreciation and accumulated amortization related to real estate assets and accumulated amortization related to deferred lease costs. |
Gross Real Estate Assets: Gross Real Estate Assets is defined as total real estate assets with the add-back of accumulated depreciation and accumulated amortization related to real estate assets. |
Incremental Capital Expenditures: Incremental Capital Expenditures are 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 ("Leasing Costs") incurred to lease space that was vacant at acquisition, Leasing Costs for spaces vacant for greater than one year, Leasing Costs for spaces at newly acquired properties for which in-place leases expire shortly after acquisition, improvements associated with the expansion of a building, renovations that change the underlying classification of a building, and deferred building maintenance capital identified at and completed shortly after acquisition are included in this measure. |
Non-Incremental Capital Expenditures: Non-Incremental Capital Expenditures are 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, in addition to other capital expenditures that qualify as Incremental Capital Expenditures, as defined above. |
Property Net Operating Income ("Property NOI"): The Company calculates Property NOI by starting with Core EBITDA and adjusting for general and administrative expense, income associated with property management performed by Piedmont for other organizations and other income or expense items for the Company, such as interest income from loan investments or costs from the pursuit of non-consummated transactions. The Company may present this measure on an accrual basis or a cash basis. When presented on a cash basis, the effects of straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue are also eliminated. Property NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Property NOI is helpful to investors as a supplemental comparative performance measure of income generated by its properties alone without the administrative overhead of the Company. Other REITs may not define Property NOI in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Property NOI may not be comparable to that of other REITs. |
Same Store Net Operating Income ("Same Store NOI"): The Company calculates Same Store NOI as Property NOI attributable to the properties for which the following criteria were met during the entire span of the current and prior year reporting periods: (i) they were owned, (ii) they were not under development / redevelopment, and (iii) none of the operating expenses for which were capitalized. Same Store NOI also excludes amounts attributable to unconsolidated joint venture and land assets. The Company may present this measure on an accrual basis or a cash basis. When presented on a cash basis, the effects of straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue are also eliminated. Same Store NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Same Store NOI is helpful to investors as a supplemental comparative performance measure of the income generated from the same group of properties from one period to the next. Other REITs may not define Same Store NOI in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Same Store NOI may not be comparable to that of other REITs. |
Same Store Properties: Same Store Properties is defined as those properties for which the following criteria were met during the entire span of the current and prior year reporting periods: (i) they were owned, (ii) they were not under development / redevelopment, and (iii) none of the operating expenses for which were capitalized. Same Store Properties excludes unconsolidated joint venture and land assets. |

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,” "estimate," “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 supplemental package include our estimated Core FFO and Core FFO per diluted share for calendar year 2017 and certain expected future financing requirements and expenditures.
The following are some of the factors that could cause our actual results and expectations to differ materially from those described in our forward-looking statements: economic, regulatory and / or socio-economic changes (including accounting standards) that impact the real estate market generally or that could affect the patterns of use of commercial office space; the success of our real estate strategies and investment objectives, including our ability to identify and consummate suitable acquisitions and divestitures; lease terminations or lease defaults, particularly by one of our large lead tenants; the impact of competition on our efforts to renew existing leases or re-let space on terms similar to existing leases; changes in the economies and other conditions affecting the office sector in general and the specific markets in which we operate, particularly in Washington, D.C., the New York metropolitan area, and Chicago where we have high concentrations of office properties; the illiquidity of real estate investments, including regulatory restrictions to which REITs are subject and the resulting impediment on our ability to quickly respond to adverse changes in the performance of our properties; the risks and uncertainties associated with the acquisition and disposition of properties, many of which risks and uncertainties may not be known at the time of acquisition or disposition; development and construction delays and resultant increased costs and risks; our real estate development strategies may not be successful; future acts of terrorism in any of the major metropolitan areas in which we own properties or future cybersecurity attacks against us or any of our tenants; additional risks and costs associated with directly managing properties occupied by government tenants; adverse market and economic conditions, including any resulting impairment charges on both our long-lived assets or goodwill resulting therefrom; availability of financing and our lending banks' ability to honor existing line of credit commitments; costs of complying with governmental laws and regulations; the effect of future offerings of debt or equity securities or changes in market interest rates on the value of our common stock; changes in the method pursuant to which the LIBOR rates are determined and the potential phasing out of LIBOR after 2021; uncertainties associated with environmental and other regulatory matters; potential changes in political environment and reduction in federal and/or state funding of our governmental tenants, including an increased risk of default by government tenants during periods in which state or federal governments are shut down or on furlough; any change in the financial condition of any of our large lead tenants; changes in the financial condition of our tenants directly or indirectly resulting from the United Kingdom's referendum to withdraw from the European Union; the effect of any litigation to which we are, or may become, subject; changes in tax laws impacting REITs and real estate in general, as well as our ability to continue to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986; the future effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures; 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 supplemental report. We cannot guarantee the accuracy of any such forward-looking statements contained in this supplemental report, and we do not intend to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
