MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY
"For the 2016 third quarter, we generated AFFO per diluted share of $1.34, up 12.6% from the prior year period, reflecting the impact of the cost reduction initiative that we implemented earlier this year, growth in assets under management within our Investment Management business and lower interest expense,” said Mark J. DeCesaris, Chief Executive Officer of W. P. Carey. “Our third quarter results keep us on pace to generate full-year AFFO within our guidance range, which we have narrowed to between $5.05 and $5.15 per diluted share.
"Within our Owned Real Estate portfolio, we have now addressed the majority of our near-term lease maturities, which has both reduced residual risk and, in conjunction with recent acquisitions, extended the portfolio’s weighted-average lease term. We have also made further progress with our capital plan, raising additional equity through our ATM program at a weighted-average price of $68.54 and completing a public offering of senior unsecured notes through which we were able to replace higher-cost mortgage debt with lower-cost unsecured debt.”
FINANCIAL RESULTS
Revenues
| |
• | Total Company: Revenues excluding reimbursable costs (net revenues) for the 2016 third quarter totaled $204.2 million, up 3.0% from $198.2 million for the 2015 third quarter, due primarily to higher net revenues from Investment Management. |
| |
• | Owned Real Estate: Owned Real Estate revenues excluding reimbursable tenant costs (net revenues from Owned Real Estate) for the 2016 third quarter were $173.5 million, down 1.3% from $175.8 million for the 2015 third quarter, due primarily to lower lease termination income as well as lower lease revenues resulting from the sale of properties. |
| |
• | Investment Management: Investment Management revenues excluding reimbursable costs (net revenues from Investment Management) for the 2016 third quarter were $30.6 million, up 37.2% from $22.3 million for the 2015 third quarter, due primarily to higher structuring revenue resulting from increased investment activity on behalf of the Managed Programs, as well as higher asset management revenue resulting from growth in assets under management. |
Net Income Attributable to W. P. Carey
| |
• | Net income attributable to W. P. Carey for the 2016 third quarter was $110.9 million, up significantly compared to $21.7 million for the 2015 third quarter, due primarily to a $49.1 million aggregate gain on sale of real estate recognized in the current-year period, lower general and administrative expenses, lower interest expense and an increase in Investment Management revenues. |
Adjusted Funds from Operations (AFFO)
| |
• | AFFO for the 2016 third quarter was $1.34 per diluted share, up 12.6% compared to $1.19 per diluted share for the 2015 third quarter, due primarily to lower general and administrative expenses, higher asset management fees and distributions of available cash from the Company’s interests in the operating partnerships of the Managed Programs and lower interest expense. |
| |
• | Note: Further information concerning AFFO, a non-GAAP supplemental performance metric, is presented in the accompanying tables and related notes. |

W. P. Carey Inc. 9/30/2016 Earnings Release 8-K – 10
Non-GAAP Financial Disclosure
Due to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, as discussed below, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc., or NAREIT, an industry trade group, has promulgated a non-GAAP measure known as FFO, which we believe to be an appropriate supplemental measure, when used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP, to reflect the operating performance of a REIT. The use of FFO is recommended by the REIT industry as a supplemental non-GAAP measure. FFO is not equivalent to nor a substitute for net income or loss as determined under GAAP.
We define FFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the standards established by the White Paper on FFO approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, as revised in February 2004. The White Paper defines FFO as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from sales of property, impairment charges on real estate, and depreciation and amortization from real estate assets; and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly-owned investments. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly-owned investments are calculated to reflect FFO. Our FFO calculation complies with NAREIT’s policy described above.
We modify the NAREIT computation of FFO to include other adjustments to GAAP net income to adjust for certain non-cash charges such as amortization of real estate-related intangibles, deferred income tax benefits and expenses, straight-line rents, stock compensation, gains or losses from extinguishment of debt and deconsolidation of subsidiaries and unrealized foreign currency exchange gains and losses. Our assessment of our operations is focused on long-term sustainability and not on such non-cash items, which may cause short-term fluctuations in net income but have no impact on cash flows. Additionally, we exclude non-core income and expenses such as property acquisition and other expenses, which includes costs recorded related to our formal strategic review, certain lease termination income, and expenses related to restructuring and other compensation-related expenses resulting from a reduction in headcount and employment severance arrangements. We also exclude realized gains/losses on foreign exchange transactions, other than those realized on the settlement of foreign currency derivatives, which are not considered fundamental attributes of our business plan and do not affect our overall long-term operating performance. We refer to our modified definition of FFO as AFFO. We exclude these items from GAAP net income as they are not the primary drivers in our decision making process and excluding these items provides investors a view of our portfolio performance over time and makes it more comparable to other REITs which are currently not engaged in acquisitions, mergers and restructuring which are not part of our normal business operations. We use AFFO as one measure of our operating performance when we formulate corporate goals, evaluate the effectiveness of our strategies, and determine executive compensation.
We believe that AFFO is a useful supplemental measure for investors to consider as we believe it will help them to better assess the sustainability of our operating performance without the potentially distorting impact of these short-term fluctuations. However, there are limits on the usefulness of AFFO to investors. For example, impairment charges and unrealized foreign currency losses that we exclude may become actual realized losses upon the ultimate disposition of the properties in the form of lower cash proceeds or other considerations. We use our FFO and AFFO measures as supplemental financial measures of operating performance. We do not use our FFO and AFFO measures as, nor should they be considered to be, alternatives to net earnings computed under GAAP or as alternatives to cash from operating activities computed under GAAP or as indicators of our ability to fund our cash needs.
