PASADENA, CA. – May 8, 2008 – Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. (NYSE: ARE) today announced operating and financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2008.
For the first quarter of 2008, we reported total revenues of $109,959,000 and FFO available to common stockholders of $46,976,000, or $1.48 per share (diluted), before non-cash impairment charges, compared to total revenues of $94,786,000 and FFO available to common stockholders of $40,345,000, or $1.38 per share (diluted), before a preferred stock redemption charge, for the first quarter of 2007. Comparing the first quarter of 2008 to the first quarter of 2007, total revenues increased 16%, FFO available to common stockholders and FFO per share (diluted) increased 16% and 7%, respectively, before non-cash impairment and preferred stock redemption charges. Our results for the first quarter of 2008 included non-cash impairment charges aggregating $6,635,000, or $0.21 per share (diluted), related to two assets “held for sale” and certain investments, and our results for the first quarter of 2007 included a preferred stock redemption charge of $2,799,000, or $0.10 per share (diluted).
FFO is a non-GAAP measure widely used by publicly traded real estate investment trusts. A reconciliation of GAAP net income available to common stockholders to FFO available to common stockholders and FFO available to common stockholders after supplemental adjustments on both an aggregate and per share (diluted) basis, is included in the financial information accompanying this press release. The primary reconciling item between GAAP net income available to common stockholders and FFO available to common stockholders is depreciation and amortization expense. Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 was $25,810,000 and $23,518,000, respectively. Net income available to common stockholders for the first quarter of 2008 was $34,760,000, or $1.09 per share (diluted), compared to net income available to common stockholders of $15,108,000, or $0.52 per share (diluted), for the first quarter of 2007. Net income available to common stockholders for the first quarter of 2008 included aggregate gains of $20,213,000 on sales of six properties and non-cash impairment charges aggregating $6,635,000 related to two assets “held for sale” and certain investments. Net income available to common stockholders for the first quarter of 2007 included a gain on sale of one property of $1,121,000 and a preferred stock redemption charge of $2,799,000.

For the first quarter of 2008, we executed a total of 48 leases for approximately 570,000 rentable square feet of space at 31 different properties (excluding month-to-month leases). Of this total, approximately 369,000 rentable square feet related to new or renewal leases of previously leased space and approximately 201,000 rentable square feet related to developed, redeveloped or previously vacant space. Of the 201,000 rentable square feet, approximately 129,000 rentable square feet were delivered from our development or redevelopment programs, with the remaining approximately 72,000 rentable square feet related to previously vacant space. Rental rates for these new or renewal leases were on average approximately 14.1% higher (on a GAAP basis) than rental rates for expiring leases.
During the first quarter of 2008, we sold one property located in the San Diego market with approximately 86,962 rentable square feet and five properties in the east bay area of the San Francisco Bay market aggregating approximately 272,730 rentable square feet. The aggregate sales price for the properties sold in the first quarter of 2008 was approximately $70 million.
As of March 31, 2008, approximately 89% of our leases (on a rentable square footage basis) were triple net leases, requiring tenants to pay substantially all real estate taxes and insurance, common area and other operating expenses, including increases thereto. In addition, as of March 31, 2008, approximately 8% of our leases (on a rentable square footage basis) required the tenants to pay a majority of operating expenses. Additionally, as of March 31, 2008, approximately 92% of our leases (on a rentable square footage basis) provided for the recapture of certain capital expenditures and approximately 94% of our leases (on a rentable square footage basis) contained effective annual rent escalations that were either fixed or indexed based on the consumer price index or another index.
Based on our current view of existing market conditions and certain current assumptions, our updated guidance for FFO per share (diluted) and earnings per share (diluted) is as follows:
| | 2008 | |
FFO per share (diluted) (1) | | $5.86 | (1) | |
Earnings per share (diluted) (2) | | $3.00 | (2) | |
Non–cash impairment charges recognized in the first quarter of 2008 | | $0.21 | | |
(1) Includes non–cash impairment charges aggregating $6,635,000, or $0.21 per share (diluted), related to assets “held for sale” and certain investments. Our updated guidance for 2008 FFO per share (diluted) after supplemental adjustments for the non-cash impairment charges is $6.07.
(2) Includes non–cash impairment charges aggregating $6,635,000 and gains on sales of property aggregating $20,213,000.

Funds from Operations
Generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) basis accounting for real estate assets utilizes historical cost accounting and assumes real estate values diminish over time. In an effort to overcome the difference between real estate values and historical cost accounting for real estate assets, the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) established the measurement tool of Funds From Operations (“FFO”). Since its introduction, FFO has become a widely used non-GAAP financial measure among real estate investment trusts (“REITs”). We believe that FFO is helpful to investors as an additional measure of the performance of an equity REIT. We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by the Board of Governors of NAREIT in its April 2002 White Paper (the “White Paper”) and related implementation guidance, which may differ from the methodology for calculating FFO utilized by other equity REITs, and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. The White Paper defines FFO as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.
We also present FFO after supplemental adjustments which excludes non-cash impairment and preferred stock redemption charges. FFO after supplemental adjustments differs from FFO established by NAREIT and may not be comparable to that of other REITs. We believe FFO after supplemental adjustments provides a meaningful supplemental financial measure.
Neither FFO or FFO after supplemental adjustments should be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of financial performance, or to cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions.
The following table presents a reconciliation of net income available to common stockholders, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to FFO, and FFO after supplemental adjustments to funds from operations available to common stockholders and funds from operations available to common stockholders after supplemental adjustments for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 (in thousands, except per share data):

(3) During the first quarter of 2007, we redeemed our 9.10% series B cumulative redeemable preferred stock. Accordingly, in compliance with FASB Emerging Issues Task Force D-42 (“EITF Topic D-42”), we recorded a charge of $2,799,000, or $0.10 per share (diluted), in the first quarter of 2007 for costs related to the redemption of our series B preferred stock.
(4) In March 2008, we recognized aggregate non-cash impairment charges of approximately $1,985,000 for other-than-temporary declines in the fair value of certain investments and non-cash impairment charges on two properties “held for sale” of approximately $4,650,000 related to an industrial building located in a suburban submarket south of Boston and an office building located in the San Diego market. The non-cash impairment charges on two properties “held for sale” are classified in income from discontinued operations, net.

(b) See page 4 for a reconciliation of earnings per share (diluted) to FFO per share (diluted) and FFO per share (diluted) after supplemental adjustments.
(c) Dividend payout ratio (common stock) is the ratio of the absolute dollar amount of dividends on our common stock (common stock shares outstanding on the respective record date multiplied by the related dividend per share) to funds from operations after supplemental adjustments for the respective quarter.
(d) Includes a rental payment of approximately $1.4 million from one tenant, the U.S. Government, in the second quarter of 2007. Pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13, “Accounting for Leases,” rental payments due under this lease are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
(e) As of March 31, 2008, assets for which capitalization of interest is required pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 34, “Capitalization of Interest Cost” (“SFAS 34”), approximated $1.2 billion. This amount is classified as properties undergoing development and redevelopment and land held for development on our balance sheet. As of March 31, 2008, the weighted average interest rate used in the calculation of capitalized interest required pursuant to SFAS 34 was approximately 5.69%. SFAS 34 requires the interest rate for capitalization to be based on applicable interest costs related to borrowings outstanding during the period, including the impact of interest rate swap agreements, debt premiums/discounts and amortization of loan fees.
(f) Includes properties “held for sale” during the applicable periods such assets were “held for sale.” As of March 31, 2008, two properties aggregating approximately 74,304 rentable square feet were classified as “held for sale.”
(g) During the first quarter of 2008, we sold six assets and transferred one property from operating assets to embedded future development opportunities. During the fourth quarter of 2007, we sold one asset and transferred two properties from operating assets to embedded future development opportunities. During the third quarter of 2007, we sold one asset located in the New Jersey/Suburban Philadelphia market and four land parcels to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. During the second quarter of 2007, we sold one asset and transferred three properties from operating assets to embedded future development opportunities. During the first quarter of 2007, we sold one asset located in the Suburban Washington D.C. market.
(h) Debt to total market capitalization is the ratio of our share of total debt (secured notes payable, unsecured line of credit and unsecured term loan and unsecured convertible notes) to total market capitalization. Total market capitalization is equal to outstanding shares of series C preferred stock and common stock multiplied by the related closing price at the end of each period presented, plus series D convertible preferred stock at liquidation value, plus our share of total debt.

NOTE: This summary represents operating data for all properties that were fully operating for the entire periods presented for the quarter periods (the “First Quarter Same Properties”). Same property occupancy for the quarters ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 was 95.3% and 94.3%, respectively. Properties undergoing redevelopment are excluded from same property results.
(1) | Revenue less operating expenses computed in accordance with GAAP is total revenue associated with the First Quarter Same Properties (excluding lease termination fees, if any) less property operating expenses. Under GAAP, rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the respective lease terms. Revenue less operating expenses on a cash basis is total revenue associated with the First Quarter Same Properties (excluding lease termination fees, if any) less property operating expenses, adjusted to exclude the effect of straight-line rent adjustments required by GAAP. Straight-line rent adjustments for the quarters ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 for the First Quarter Same Properties were $2,004,000 and $3,748,000, respectively. We believe that revenue less operating expenses on a cash basis is helpful to investors as an additional measure of operating performance because it eliminates straight-line rent adjustments to rental revenue. |
| |
(2) | Fees received from tenants in connection with termination of their leases, if any, are excluded from revenue in the Summary of Same Property Comparisons. As of March 31, 2008, approximately 89% of our leases (on a square footage basis) were triple net leases, requiring tenants to pay substantially all real estate taxes and insurance, common area and other operating expenses, including increases thereto. In addition, as of March 31, 2008, approximately 8% of our leases (on a square footage basis) required the tenants to pay a majority of operating expenses. |

Our redevelopment program involves ongoing activities necessary for the permanent change of use of applicable redevelopment space to office/laboratory space. Spaces currently built out with laboratory improvements are generally not placed into our value-add redevelopment program. As required under GAAP, interest and other costs directly related and essential to the project are capitalized on redevelopment properties on the basis allocable only to that portion of space undergoing redevelopment. In addition to properties undergoing redevelopment, as of March 31, 2008, our asset base contained embedded opportunities for future permanent change of use to office/laboratory space through redevelopment aggregating approximately 1,699,000 rentable square feet. See Summary of Embedded Future Development and Redevelopment Square Footage on page 16.
(1) | This project also includes site work and a multi-story below and above ground parking structure to support both the existing building undergoing redevelopment and an additional building targeted for development in the future. The entitlement process for this project was completed in early 2007. |

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 34, “Capitalization of Interest Cost” (“SFAS 34”) and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 67, “Accounting for Costs and Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Projects” (“SFAS 67”), we are required to capitalize direct construction, including pre-construction costs, interest, property taxes, insurance and other costs directly related and essential to the construction of a project while activities are ongoing to prepare an asset for its intended use. Pre-construction costs include costs related to the development of plans and the process of obtaining entitlements and permits from government authorities. Costs incurred after a project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use are expensed as incurred. Should development, redevelopment or construction activity cease, construction costs, including interest, would no longer be eligible for capitalization, under SFAS 34 and SFAS 67, and would be expensed as incurred.
(1) | Our aggregate construction costs to date approximate $121 per developable square foot. Amount excludes our investment per square foot in land. |
(2) | In addition, we have the right to develop an additional parcel with approximately 442,000 rentable square feet. This square footage is not included in the embedded developable square footage shown on page 16. |

The embedded future development and redevelopment square footage shown above represents future ground-up development projects and future redevelopment (permanent change in use of applicable space to office/laboratory space) projects. A significant portion of our embedded future development square footage is in the development/pre-construction phase (entitlement, permitting, design, etc.). See discussion on SFAS 34 and SFAS 67 on page 15. Commencement of construction will depend on numerous factors, including the successful completion of development/pre-construction activities and management’s assessment of overall market conditions. As required under GAAP, direct construction, interest, property taxes, insurance and other costs directly related and essential to the development/pre-construction, or construction of a project, is mandated to be capitalized during pre-construction when activities are ongoing to bring these assets to their intended use.
(1) | Development/pre-construction square footage is included in Embedded Future Development -Total Embedded Development Square Footage shown above. |
(2) | In addition, we have the right to develop an additional parcel with approximately 442,000 rentable square feet. This square footage is not included in the embedded developable square footage shown above. |

Summary of Capital Costs
For the Quarter ended March 31, 2008
(In thousands)
Property-related capital expenditures (1) | | $ | 500 | |
| | | |
Leasing costs (2) | | $ | 238 | |
| | | |
Property-related costs (3) | | $ | 116,541 | |
(1) | Property-related capital expenditures include all major capital and recurring capital expenditures except capital expenditures that are recoverable from tenants, revenue-enhancing capital expenditures, or costs related to the redevelopment of a property. Major capital expenditures consist of roof replacements and HVAC systems which are typically identified and considered at the time the property is acquired. Capital expenditures fluctuate in any given period due to the nature, extent or timing of improvements required and the extent to which they are recoverable from tenants. Approximately 92% of our leases (based on rentable square feet) provide for the recapture of certain capital expenditures (such as HVAC systems maintenance and/or replacement, roof replacement and parking lot resurfacing). In addition, we implement an active preventative maintenance program at each of our properties to minimize capital expenditures. |
| |
(2) | Leasing costs consist of tenant improvements and leasing commissions related to leasing of acquired vacant space and second generation space. |
| |
(3) | Amount includes leasing costs related to development and redevelopment projects. |
