FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
SIMON PROPERTY GROUP ANNOUNCES FOURTH QUARTER RESULTS
AND DECLARES 7.7% INCREASE IN COMMON STOCK DIVIDENDS
Indianapolis, Indiana—February 10, 2005...Simon Property Group, Inc. (the "Company" or "Simon") (NYSE:SPG) today announced results for the fourth quarter and twelve months ended December 31, 2004:
- •
- Diluted funds from operations ("FFO") of the Simon portfolio for the quarter increased 18.8% to $397.6 million from $334.8 million in 2003. On a per share basis the increase was 7.9% to $1.36 per share from $1.26 per share in the fourth quarter of 2003. Results for the quarter include a non-cash impairment charge of $18 million ($0.06 per share) for one regional mall. Excluding this charge, FFO for the quarter was $1.42, an increase of 12.7% from 2003. Diluted FFO of the Simon portfolio for the twelve months increased 12.1% to $1.198 billion from $1.069 billion in 2003. On a per share basis the increase was 8.7% to $4.39 per share from $4.04 per share in 2003. Excluding the one-time impairment charge, diluted FFO for the year was $4.46 per share, an increase of 10.4% from 2003.
- •
- Net income available to common shareholders for the quarter was $107.4 million in 2004 as compared to $165.4 million in 2003. On a diluted per share basis the decrease was 41.0% to $0.49 per share from $0.83 per share in the fourth quarter of 2003. The decline in net income per share is primarily attributable to 2003 net gains on the sale of real estate and the previously described impact of the $18 million non-cash impairment charge recorded in the fourth quarter of 2004. Net income available to common shareholders for the twelve months decreased to $300.6 million from $313.6 million in 2003. On a diluted per share basis, the decrease was 12.7% to $1.44 per share from $1.65 per share in 2003.
The Company considers FFO a key measure of its operating performance that is not specifically defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). The Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors because it is a widely recognized measure of the performance of real estate investment trusts and provides a relevant basis for comparison among REITs. A reconciliation of GAAP reported net income to FFO is provided in the financial statement section of this press release.

Notes:
- (A)
- Includes a $13.5 million loss recorded as a result of the Special Master's memorandum clarifying the calculation of "net profits" that were disgorged by the Company related to the Mall of America litigation. The Company has appealed the Court's September 10, 2003 Order and will appeal the Special Master's findings. Also includes the Company's $12.6 million gain on the sale of its interest in the New York Times Square Westin Hotel (tax effect of the gain of $4.3 million is included in Income tax expense of taxable REIT subsidiaries below).
- (B)
- As defined by NAREIT, FFO is consolidated net income computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding real estate related depreciation and amortization, excluding gains and losses from extraordinary items, excluding gains and losses from the sales of real estate, plus the allocable portion of FFO of unconsolidated joint ventures based upon economic ownership interest, and all determined on a consistent basis in accordance with GAAP. The Company has adopted NAREIT's clarification of the definition of FFO that requires it to include the effects of nonrecurring items not classified as extraordinary, cumulative effect of accounting change or resulting from the sale of depreciable real estate. However, you should understand that FFO does not represent cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP, should not be considered as an alternative to net income determined in accordance with GAAP as a measure of operating performance, and is not an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity.
- (C)
- Includes our share of gains on land sales of $21.0 million and $18.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, and $45.4 million and $42.0 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
- (D)
- Includes our share of straight-line adjustments to minimum rent of $5.6 million and $1.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, and $10.7 million and $6.1 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
- (E)
- Includes our share of the fair market value of leases from acquisitions of $12.8 million and $4.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, and $38.3 million and $12.8 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
- (F)
- Includes dividends and distributions of Series B, C and I preferred stock and Series C and I preferred units. The Series B shares impacted only the 2003 results as they were converted or redeemed during 2003.
- (G)
- Consolidation occurs when the Company acquires an additional ownership interest in a joint venture and has, as a result, gained control of the joint venture. These interests have been separated from operational interests to present comparative results of operations for those joint ventures held as of December 31, 2004. Discontinued joint venture interests represent those partnership interests that have been sold.
- (H)
- Excess Investment represents the unamortized difference of our investment over our share of the equity in the underlying net assets of the partnerships and joint ventures acquired. We generally amortize excess investment over the life of the related Properties, typically 35 years, and the amortization is included in income from unconsolidated entities.
