• | Reaffirmed 2014 Recurring FFO guidance of $1.23 to $1.28 per diluted share, excluding the one-time costs pertaining to the transition and hiring of its new CEO |
“We are pleased with our results for the first quarter of 2014. Recurring FFO per share was higher than expected, occupancy increased by 150 basis points as compared to prior quarter and our development and redevelopment program is advancing nicely,” said Jeff Olson, CEO. “The first phase of Broadway Plaza, our $66 million development in the Bronx, is expected to open on time and on budget this fall and we are making good progress in expanding and redeveloping our centers in Daly City, California and Bethesda, Maryland, among many others.”
Financial Highlights
Recurring FFO was $45.4 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2014, as compared to $41.0 million, or $0.32 per diluted share for the same period in 2013, representing a 9% increase on a per share basis. In the first quarter of
2014, the company generated FFO of $44.7 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, as compared to $40.0 million, or $0.31 per diluted share for the same period of 2013. Recurring FFO in the first quarter of 2014 includes $4.2 million of a net termination benefit related to the Loehmann’s lease at 101 7th Avenue and a $1.1 million reversal of bad debt expense associated with the settlement of historical real estate taxes with two tenants.
Net income attributable to Equity One was $26.3 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2014, as compared to $24.6 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2013. Net income attributable to Equity One for the three months ended March 31, 2014 includes $5.8 million related to the company’s pro rata share of the gain on the sale of a joint venture property and the recognition of a $2.2 million gain due to the remeasurement of its existing equity investment in Talega Village Center upon the purchase of its joint venture partners’ interests. Net income attributable to Equity One for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 includes gains on the sale of income producing non-core properties and land of $3.0 million and $11.2 million, respectively, net of tax. A reconciliation of net income attributable to Equity One to FFO and the reconciling components of FFO to Recurring FFO are provided in the tables accompanying this press release.
Operating Highlights
Same-property NOI increased 2.4% for the first quarter of 2014 as compared to the first quarter of 2013, which includes the effect of substantial snow removal costs in the Northeast portfolio. The company expects the recovery income related to these costs to be recognized ratably throughout the remainder of the year. If the expected recovery income of all such snow related costs were recognized in the first quarter, same-property NOI would have increased 2.7% as compared to the first quarter of 2013. A reconciliation of same-property NOI to income from continuing operations before tax and discontinued operations is provided in the tables accompanying this press release. As of March 31, 2014, occupancy for the company’s consolidated shopping center portfolio was 93.9%, up 150 basis points as compared to December 31, 2013, and up 210 basis points as compared to March 31, 2013. On a same-property basis, occupancy increased 80 basis points to 93.9% as compared to December 31, 2013, and increased 20 basis points to 93.8% as compared to March 31, 2013. The 80 basis points increase in same-property occupancy since year end was driven by a new anchor lease at Park Promenade, as well as by strong shop leasing activity, which resulted in a net increase in leased shop space of approximately 56,000 square feet.
During the first quarter of 2014, the company executed 127 new leases, renewals, and options totaling 691,995 square feet. On a same space cash basis, rents for these leases increased by 0.9%. Excluding the new anchor lease at Park Promenade, the overall cash rent spread on a same space basis was 5.2%. First quarter leasing activity included 53 new leases totaling 246,496 square feet. On a same space basis, 35 new leases were executed in the first quarter of 2014 comprising 147,403 square feet at an average rental rate of $15.11 per square foot, representing a 10.2% decrease from prior cash rents (the spread on new leases was up 8.2% on a same space basis excluding the new anchor lease at Park Promenade). Additionally, the company renewed 74 leases, all of which were same space, totaling 445,499 square feet at an average rental rate of $18.45 per square foot, representing a 4.4% increase from prior cash rents.
Development and Redevelopment Activities
As of March 31, 2014, the company had approximately $139.4 million of active development and redevelopment projects underway of which $82.8 million remained to be funded.
At Serramonte, construction of the 83,000 square foot Dick’s Sporting Goods anchor store has been completed, and a successful grand opening occurred in April 2014. During the first quarter of 2014, the company added to its redevelopment projects the new anchor re-tenanting at Alafaya Commons in Orlando, Florida, and the redevelopment of 101 7th Avenue in New York, New York. At Alafaya Commons, a lease has been executed with Academy Sports to become the new anchor tenant in a $7.5 million redevelopment project. At 101 7th Avenue, the company expects to spend $12.5 million to prepare the space for Barneys, who will become the sole tenant in the space previously occupied by Loehmann’s.
Construction activity at Broadway Plaza, a development site in the Bronx, New York, is progressing as planned. The initial phase of the project, consisting of 115,000 square feet, is expected to open during the fourth quarter of 2014, and the second phase of the project, consisting of an additional 33,000 square feet, is expected to open in the second quarter of 2015. The four anchors for the initial phase of the project have all signed leases, including The Sports Authority, TJ Maxx, Aldi’s, and Party City, representing 72% of the space in the initial phase, including the entire second level. The total budgeted cost of the entire project is approximately $66.5 million of which $31.1 million remained to be funded as of March 31, 2014.
The company has six additional properties under active redevelopment at an expected cost of $52.9 million, of which $32.3 million remained to be funded as of March 31, 2014. These projects include design improvements, expansions and new anchor re-tenanting with retailers such as L.A. Fitness, Walgreens, Ulta Beauty, UFC Gym, Publix, CVS Pharmacy, The Fresh Market,
and Ross. The company is actively working on future redevelopment opportunities that include projects to consolidate shop space, to upgrade the tenant mix of certain centers by replacing underperforming anchor tenants and to expand certain centers by adding new outparcels.
Disposition Activity
During the first quarter of 2014, the company closed on the sale of four non-core assets totaling approximately 423,000 square feet of gross leasable area (GLA) for $26.3 million. Since March 31, 2014 and through the date of this release, the company has closed on the sale of one additional non-core property for $8.6 million, and has contracts to sell seven additional non-core assets for $38.7 million. The weighted average capitalization rate of the $68.1 million of properties sold in 2014 and under contract as of the date of this release (which excludes a property sold via short-sale for $5.4 million) is approximately 8%. The company continues to explore opportunities to dispose of additional non-core assets located in secondary markets as part of its capital recycling initiatives.
Investing and Financing Activities
In January 2014, the company acquired the remaining two parcels of the Westwood Complex located in Bethesda, Maryland, including the Westwood Shopping Center, for an aggregate purchase price of $80.0 million, or approximately $19.5 million net of the related loans receivable of $60.5 million, which were repaid in full concurrent with the closing. During 2013, the company acquired the Westwood Towers, Bowlmor Lanes, Manor Care and two CITGO gas station parcels for an aggregate purchase price of $60.0 million. The company now owns all seven Westwood parcels for which the total investment is $140.0 million. The Westwood Complex contains a number of below market leases with near term expirations as well as significant development and redevelopment opportunities.
In January 2014, the company acquired the remaining 52% interest in Talega Village Center, a 102,000 square foot grocery-anchored shopping center located in San Clemente, California, for an additional investment of $6.2 million, resulting in the recognition of a $2.8 million gain due to the remeasurement of the company’s existing equity investment to fair value, including $561,000 attributable to a noncontrolling interest. The property is located in one of San Clemente’s most affluent communities and is easily accessible to Interstate 5. Subsequent to closing on the property, occupancy has increased from 88% to 96%. Additional re-tenanting and rent growth is expected as communities around the property continue to be built and the trade area densifies.
In January 2014, a joint venture sold Vernola Marketplace located in Mira Loma, California, for $49.0 million, including the assumption of the existing mortgage of $22.9 million. The joint venture recognized a gain of $14.7 million on the sale, of which the company’s proportionate share was $7.4 million, including $1.6 million attributable to a noncontrolling interest.
Balance Sheet Highlights
At March 31, 2014, the company’s total market capitalization (including debt and equity) was $4.4 billion, comprising 129.5 million shares of common stock outstanding (on a fully diluted basis) valued at approximately $2.9 billion and approximately $1.5 billion of debt (excluding any debt premium/discount). The company’s ratio of net debt (net of cash) to total market capitalization was 33.6%. At March 31, 2014, the company had approximately $39.1 million of cash and cash equivalents on hand (including cash in escrow and restricted cash) and $125.0 million drawn on its revolving credit facilities.
FFO and Earnings Guidance
Excluding the one-time costs pertaining to the transition and hiring of its new CEO, the company is reaffirming its previous Recurring FFO guidance for 2014 of $1.23 to $1.28 per diluted share. Recurring FFO excludes debt extinguishment gains/losses, impairment charges, severance costs, transaction costs, gains/losses on disposal of assets, and certain other income or charges. The 2014 guidance is based on the following key assumptions:
• | Increase in same-property NOI of 2.5% to 3.5% |
• | Increase in same-property occupancy of approximately 100 basis points |
• | Core acquisitions of $100 million to $200 million |
• | Joint venture acquisitions of $100 million to $200 million |
• | Non-core dispositions of $125 million to $175 million, including the 2014 sales activity announced in this release |
The following table provides a reconciliation of the range of estimated net income attributable to Equity One per diluted share to estimated FFO and Recurring FFO per diluted share for the full year 2014:

ACCOUNTING AND OTHER DISCLOSURES
The company believes FFO (combined with the primary GAAP presentations) is a useful, supplemental measure of its operating performance that is a recognized metric used extensively by the real estate industry, particularly REITs. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) stated in its April 2002 White Paper on Funds from Operations, “Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors have considered presentations of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves.”
FFO, as defined by NAREIT, is “net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of, or impairment charges related to, depreciable operating properties, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.” NAREIT states further that “adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis.” The company makes certain adjustments to FFO, which it refers to as Recurring FFO, to account for items it does not believe are representative of ongoing operating results, including transaction costs associated with acquisition and disposition activity, severance costs and gains (or losses) on the extinguishment of debt. The company also believes that Recurring FFO is a useful, supplemental measure of its core operating performance that facilitates comparability of historical financial periods. The company believes that financial analysts, investors and stockholders are better served by the presentation of comparable period operating results generated from its FFO and Recurring FFO measures. The company’s method of calculating FFO and Recurring FFO may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.
The company uses NOI, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, internally as a performance measure and believes NOI provides useful information to investors regarding the company’s financial condition and results of operations because it reflects only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level and when compared across periods, reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs and acquisition and disposition activity on an unleveraged basis. In this release, the company has provided NOI information on a same-property basis. Information provided on a same-property basis includes the results of properties that the company consolidated, owned and operated for the entirety of both periods being compared except for properties for which significant development, redevelopment or expansion occurred during either of the periods being compared.
FFO, Recurring FFO and same-property NOI are presented to assist investors in analyzing the company’s operating performance. Neither FFO, Recurring FFO nor same-property NOI (i) represents cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP, (ii) is indicative of cash available to fund all cash flow needs, including the ability to make distributions, (iii) is an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity, or (iv) should be considered as an alternative to net income (which is determined in accordance with GAAP) for purposes of evaluating the company’s operating performance. The company believes net income attributable to Equity One is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to FFO and Recurring FFO
while income from continuing operations before tax and discontinued operations is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to NOI. Reconciliations of these measures to their respective comparable GAAP measures have been provided in the tables accompanying this press release.
On April 10, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an update (ASU 2014-08) regarding the criteria for reporting discontinued operations which is effective prospectively beginning in the first quarter of 2015. As permitted, the company has elected to early adopt the updated standard. Therefore, beginning in the first quarter of 2014, prospective activity related to individual properties sold or held for sale will no longer be included as discontinued operations on the consolidated statements of income.

(1) Includes amounts classified as discontinued operations.
(2) Represents earnings allocated to unissued shares held by LIH, which have been excluded for purposes of calculating earnings per diluted share for all periods presented. FFO and Recurring FFO calculations include earnings allocated to LIH and the respective weighted average share totals include the LIH shares outstanding as their inclusion is dilutive.
(3) Includes the remeasurement of the fair value of the company's equity interest in Talega Village Center JV, LLC, the owner of Talega Village Center, of $2.2 million, net of the related noncontrolling interest.
(4) Includes $3,000 and $15,000 of severance costs for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013. Also includes $68,000 and $7,000 of pre-acquisition costs that were expensed for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Funds from Operations and Recurring FFO are non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that FFO, as defined by NAREIT, is a widely used and appropriate supplemental measure of operating performance for REITs, and that it provides a relevant basis for comparison among REITs. We believe that Recurring FFO provides additional comparability between historical financial periods.

(1) Represents earnings allocated to unissued shares held by LIH, which have been excluded for purposes of calculating earnings per diluted share for all periods presented. FFO and Recurring FFO calculations include earnings allocated to LIH and the respective weighted average share totals include the LIH shares outstanding as their inclusion is dilutive.
(2) Represents an adjustment to compensate for the rounding of the individual calculations and to compensate for earnings allocated to unvested shares and shares issuable to LIH.
(3) Weighted average diluted shares used to calculate FFO per share and Recurring FFO per share for all the periods presented are higher than the GAAP diluted weighted average shares as a result of the dilutive impact of the 11.4 million joint venture units held by LIH which are convertible into the company's common stock, and also as a result of employee stock options. These convertible units are not included in the diluted weighted average share count for GAAP purposes because their inclusion is anti-dilutive.
