PASADENA, CA. – November 5, 2009 – Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. (NYSE: ARE) today announced operating and financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2009.
For the third quarter of 2009, we reported funds from operations (“FFO”) attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $50,609,000, or $1.13 per share (diluted), compared to FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $46,273,000, or $1.45 per share (diluted), for the third quarter of 2008. Comparing the third quarter of 2009 to the third quarter of 2008, FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders increased 9% and FFO per share (diluted) attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders decreased 22%. The weighted average number of basic and diluted common stock outstanding for calculating FFO per share (diluted) attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders totaled 39,094,018 and 44,903,051, respectively, for the third quarter of 2009 and 31,694,711 and 31,807,455, respectively, for the third quarter of 2008. For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, we reported FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $180,427,000, or $4.49 per share (diluted), compared to FFO attributable to

Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $130,317,000, or $4.11 per share (diluted), for nine months ended September 30, 2008. Comparing the nine months ended September 30, 2009 to the nine months ended September 30, 2008, FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders and FFO per share (diluted) attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders increased 38% and 9%, respectively.
FFO is a non-GAAP measure widely used by publicly traded real estate investment trusts. We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) in its April 2002 White Paper and related implementation guidance. A reconciliation of net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) to FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders is included in the financial information accompanying this press release. The primary reconciling item between GAAP net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders and FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders is depreciation and amortization expense. Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 was $28,336,000 and $27,447,000, respectively. Depreciation and amortization expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 was $89,504,000 and $80,260,000, respectively. Net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders for the third quarter of 2009 was $18,203,000, or $0.47 per share (diluted), compared to net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $19,319,000, or $0.61 per share (diluted), for the third quarter of 2008. The weighted average number of basic and diluted common stock outstanding for calculating earnings per share attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders totaled 39,094,018 and 39,105,950, respectively, for the third quarter of 2009 and 31,694,711 and 31,807,455, respectively, for the third quarter of 2008. Net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $83,314,000, or $2.26 per share (diluted), compared to net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $71,521,000, or $2.25 per share (diluted), for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.
For the third quarter of 2009, we executed a total of 29 leases for approximately 450,000 rentable square feet of space at 21 different properties (excluding month-to-month leases). Of this total, approximately 207,000 rentable square feet related to new or renewal leases of previously leased space and approximately 243,000 rentable square feet related to developed, redeveloped or previously vacant space. Of the 243,000 rentable square feet, approximately 144,000 rentable square feet were delivered from our development or redevelopment programs, with the remaining approximately 99,000 rentable square feet related to previously vacant space. Rental rates for these new or renewal leases were on average approximately 5.6% higher (on a GAAP basis) than rental rates for expiring leases.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, we executed a total of 108 leases for approximately 1,349,000 rentable square feet of space at 49 different properties (excluding month-to-month leases). Of this total, approximately 788,000 rentable square feet related to new or renewal leases of previously leased space and approximately 561,000 rentable square feet related to developed, redeveloped or previously vacant space. Of the 561,000 rentable square feet, approximately 252,000 rentable square feet were delivered from our development or redevelopment programs, with the remaining approximately 309,000 rentable square feet related to previously vacant space. Rental rates for these new or renewal leases were on average approximately 4.9% higher (on a GAAP basis) than rental rates for expiring leases.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, we sold three properties aggregating 64,218 rentable square feet to a life science user. These properties were located in the San Diego market and were sold for approximately $14.5 million at a gain of approximately $2.2 million. As of September 30, 2009, four properties with approximately 269,196 rentable square feet were classified as “held for sale.” In October 2009, we sold one property located in the Suburban Washington, D.C. market aggregating 47,558 rentable square feet to a life science user for approximately $6.4 million.
In July 2009, we announced that we entered into a 15-year lease with Eli Lilly and Company (“Lilly”) as the anchor tenant at the Alexandria Center for Life Science at East River Science Park — NYCTM (“the Alexandria Center”), a highly advanced state-of-the-art urban science park in New York City. Lilly has leased approximately 91,000 rentable square feet, as well as an additional approximately 9,000 rentable square feet of core services space, at the Alexandria Center, which will become the new research headquarters for ImClone Systems, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lilly, and New York City’s life science collaboration and translational research epicenter.

Also in July 2009, we completed the ground-up development of one property located in the San Francisco Mission Bay submarket aggregating 102,000 rentable square feet pursuant to a 15-year lease with Pfizer Inc.
In October 2009, we closed on a 10-year secured loan with an insurance company approximating $120 million. The loan is secured by several of our operating properties.
As of September 30, 2009, approximately 88% 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, approximately 7% of our leases (on a rentable square footage basis) required the tenants to pay a majority of operating expenses. Additionally, approximately 92% of our leases (on a rentable square footage basis) provided for the recapture of certain capital expenditures, and approximately 93% 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) attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders and earnings per share (diluted) attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders is as follows:
|
| 2009 |
|
FFO per share (diluted) (1) |
| $5.52 (1) |
|
Earnings per share (diluted) (1) |
| $2.69 (1) |
|
(1) Our guidance for 2009 includes a $7.2 million gain for a cash payment related to real estate acquired in November 2007 and a $11.3 million gain on early extinguishment of debt recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2009. Our guidance for FFO per share (diluted) for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 assumes conversion of our 8% unsecured convertible notes as the impact of the conversion is expected to be dilutive under the “if-converted” method. Our guidance for earnings per share (diluted) for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009, however, does not assume conversion of our 8% unsecured convertible notes as the impact of the conversion is expected to be anti-dilutive under the “if-converted” method.
Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. (“Alexandria”) has a very broad and diversified quality client tenant base. As of September 30, 2009, on a rental revenue basis by sector, Alexandria’s multinational pharmaceutical client tenants led by its top client tenants Novartis AG, Roche Holding Ltd, GlaxoSmithKline plc, Pfizer Inc., Johnson & Johnson and Merck & Co., Inc., represented approximately 28% of its client tenant base; revenue producing life science product and service companies led by Quest Diagnostics Incorporated, Qiagen N.V., Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings and Monsanto Company represented approximately 19% of its client tenant base; public biopharmaceutical companies represented approximately 17% of its client tenant base and included the three largest in the sector, Amgen Inc., Gilead Sciences, Inc., Celgene Corporation; government agencies and renowned medical and research institutions represented approximately 15% of its client tenant base and included The Scripps Research Institute, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, University of Washington, the Burnham Institute for Medical Research and the United States Government; private biopharmaceutical companies represented approximately 14% of its client tenant base and included high-quality, leading-edge companies with blue chip venture and institutional investors, including Achaogen, Inc., Ambrx, Inc., Intellikine, Inc., MacroGenics, Inc. and ToleRx, Inc.; the remaining approximately 7% of its client tenant base consisted of traditional office tenants. The two fastest growing client tenant sectors by revenue currently include leading institutional and multinational pharmaceutical. Alexandria’s innovative business model, very strong and unique life sciences and underwriting skills with substantial experience and expertise, long-term life science industry relationships and sophisticated management with both real estate and life science operating experience and expertise, set Alexandria apart from all other publicly-traded REITs.

Note Regarding Funds from Operations
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 NAREIT established the measurement tool of FFO. Since its introduction, FFO has become a widely used non-GAAP financial measure among 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.
FFO should not 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.
