Indianapolis, Ind., August 4, 2011 – Kite Realty Group Trust (NYSE: KRG) (the “Company”) today announced results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2011. Financial statements and exhibits attached to this release include results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.
Financial and Operating Results
For the three months ended June 30, 2011, funds from operations (FFO), a widely accepted supplemental measure of REIT performance established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, was $8.4 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, for the Kite Portfolio compared to $7.5 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, for the same period in the prior year. The Company’s allocable share of FFO was $7.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $6.7 million for the same period in 2010.
For the six months ended June 30, 2011, FFO was $15.3 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, for the Kite Portfolio compared to $14.6 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, for the same period in the prior year. The Company’s allocable share of FFO was $13.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $13.0 million for the same period in 2010.
Given the nature of the Company’s business as a real estate owner and operator, the Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors when measuring operating performance because it excludes various items included in net income that do not relate to or are not indicative of operating performance, such as gains or losses from sales of operating properties, and depreciation and amortization, which can make periodic and peer analyses of operating performance more difficult. The Company believes presenting FFO in this manner allows investors and other interested parties to form a more meaningful assessment of the Company’s operating results. A reconciliation of net income to FFO is included in the attached table.
Net loss attributable to Kite Realty Group Trust was $1.1 million for the second quarter of 2011 compared to a net loss in the prior year of $4.0 million. This change is primarily attributable to a decrease of $2.3 million in depreciation and amortization expense due to accelerated depreciation taken in the prior year on certain redevelopment properties. The Company’s total revenue for the second quarter of 2011 was $25.3 million, an increase from $24.8 million for the same period in 2010. This increase is due to an improvement in revenue from property operations of $2.4 million as a result of improved occupancy levels, current year acquisitions and a lease termination fee partially offset by a planned decline in construction volume of $1.9 million.
Net loss attributable to Kite Realty Group Trust was $3.2 million for the first six months of 2011 compared to a net loss in the prior year of $5.1 million. This change is primarily attributable to a decrease of $1.6 million in depreciation and amortization expense due to accelerated depreciation taken in the prior year on certain redevelopment properties. The Company’s total revenue for the first six months of 2011 was $49.8 million, down from $50.4 million for the same period in 2010. This decrease reflects a planned decline in construction volume of $3.7 million. These decreases were partially offset by an improvement in revenue from property operations of $3.2 million due to improved occupancy levels, current year acquisitions and a lease termination fee.
John A. Kite, Kite Realty Group’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said "We continued our positive trends in operating performance this quarter. The same property NOI increased to 3.0% from 1.0% in the first quarter and the retail portfolio increased to 93% leased. We are also making solid progress on the balance sheet with the line of credit renewal for three years and the securing of long-term property level debt at attractive interest rates. In addition, Delray Marketplace is now in-process and we plan to deliver at the end of 2012."
Operating Portfolio
As of June 30, 2011, the Company owned interests in 53 retail operating properties totaling approximately 8.0 million square feet. The owned gross leasable area (“GLA”) in the Company’s retail operating portfolio was 93.0% leased as of June 30, 2011, compared to 92.3% leased as of the end of the prior quarter. This improvement was driven by an increase in the small shop leased percentage to 80.6% as of June 30, 2011, compared to 78.2% at the end of the prior quarter.
In addition, the Company owns four operating commercial properties totaling 580,800 square feet. As of June 30, 2011, the owned net rentable area of the commercial operating portfolio was 93.3% leased, compared to 92.0% at the end of the prior quarter. The combined retail and commercial operating portfolio leased percentage was 93.1% as of June 30, 2011, compared to 92.3% as of the end of the prior quarter.
On a same property basis, the leased percentage of 54 same store operating properties increased 1.4% to 93.0% at June 30, 2011 from 91.6% at June 30, 2010. Same property net operating income (“NOI”) for these properties increased 3.0% in the second quarter of 2011 compared to the same period in the prior year.
Leasing Activities
During the second quarter of 2011, the Company executed 40 new and renewal leases totaling approximately 281,200 square feet with aggregate cash rent spreads of 3.2%. New leases were signed with 19 tenants for approximately 166,900 square feet of GLA. These leases represent a 3.6% positive cash rent spread. A total of 21 leases for 114,300 square feet were renewed during the quarter for a 2.8% positive cash rent spread.
The Company executed four new national junior anchor leases during the quarter totaling 99,000 square feet to anchor our New Hill Place future development in Holly Springs, North Carolina (Raleigh, North Carolina MSA).
Development and Acquisition Activities
The Company transitioned the Delray Marketplace project in Delray Beach, Florida to an in-process development with the commencement of construction. The Company has 20 executed leases at this property, which include anchors Publix and Frank Theatres, and the property is 62.5% pre-leased or committed. These leases include tenants such as Apricot Lane, Bobby Chan, Charming Charlie, Chico’s, JoS. A. Bank, Max’s Grille, and White House | Black Market. The total estimated costs of this project are expected to be $95 million, with opening scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2012. The Company intends to commence vertical construction upon finalizing construction financing.
As of June 30, 2011, in addition to the Delray Marketplace project, the Company owned interests in four in-process development/redevelopment projects that are expected to total 453,300 owned square feet upon completion. The total estimated cost of these projects is approximately $94.7 million, of which $68.8 million had been incurred as of June 30, 2011.
In June, the Company acquired Lithia Crossing, an 81,000 square foot unencumbered neighborhood shopping center in Tampa, Florida. Lithia Crossing is 95.6% leased, anchored by Stein Mart and features a diverse lineup of national, regional, and local tenants such as Cold Stone Creamery, Panera Bread and Starbucks. The purchase price, exclusive of closing costs, was $13.3 million reflecting an initial 8% cap rate.

· | Entered into an amended and restated three-year $200 million unsecured revolving credit facility with a one-year extension option.

· | Closed on an extension of the $4.7 million loan secured by our Delray Marketplace in-process development that was scheduled to mature in June 2011.The new maturity date on the loan is January 2012. The Company intends to refinance this loan with a longer-term construction loan. |
· | Closed on a three-year $3.7 million loan secured by the Fishers Station property to replace the loan that matured in June 2011 |

The net proceeds of these loans were utilized to pay down the variable rate loans on Bayport Commons, Eddy Street Commons, Glendale Town Center, and the remainder was initially used to pay down the Company’s line of credit. |
After completing the above transactions, the Company has reduced its 2011 debt maturities to $20.5 million.

1 | Same Property analysis excludes Courthouse Shadows, Four Corner Square, Rivers Edge, The Centre and Bolton Plaza properties as the Company pursues redevelopment of these properties. |
| |
2 | Same Property net operating income is considered a non-GAAP measure because it excludes net gains from outlot sales, write offs of straight-line rent and lease intangibles, bad debt expense and related recoveries, lease termination fees and significant prior year expense recoveries and adjustments and other significant non-recurring revenues and expenses, if any. |

The Company believes that Net Operating Income (“NOI”) is helpful to investors as a measure of its operating performance because it excludes various items included in net income that do not relate to or are not indicative of its operating performance, such as depreciation and amortization, interest expense, and impairment, if any. The Company believes that Same Property NOI is helpful to investors as a measure of its operating performance because it includes only the NOI of properties that have been owned for the full period presented, which eliminates disparities in net income due to the redevelopment, acquisition or disposition of properties during the particular period presented, and thus provides a more consistent metric for the comparison of the Company's properties. Same Property NOI should not, however, be considered as alternatives to net income (calculated in accordance with GAAP) as indicators of the Company's financial performance.
