All dollar references are in U.S. dollars, unless noted otherwise.
Brookfield, News, August 5, 2016– Brookfield Property Partners L.P. (NYSE: BPY; TSX: BPY.UN) (“the Partnership” or “BPY”) today announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2016.
“We continue to make good progress in recycling capital from mature, stabilized properties into higher-returning investments, with a further $1 billion of capital generated this quarter, bringing our year-to-date total to $1.5 billion,” said Brian Kingston, chief executive officer. “We are already seeing the benefits of this active capital management, with our Company FFO per unit up 25% over last year and we continue to see opportunities to invest in high-quality assets at attractive returns.”
Financial Results
| | Three months ended Jun. 30, | | | Six months ended Jun. 30, | |
(US$ Millions, except per unit amounts) | | 2016 | | | 2015 | | | 2016 | | | 2015 | |
Net income(1) | | $ | 569 | | | $ | 1,165 | | | $ | 1,009 | | | $ | 2,174 | |
Company FFO(2) | | $ | 250 | | | $ | 198 | | | $ | 467 | | | $ | 379 | |

Net income per LP unit(3) | | $ | 0.45 | | | $ | 1.31 | | | $ | 0.77 | | | $ | 2.37 | |

Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 was $569 million ($0.45 per LP unit) versus $1,165 million ($1.31 per LP unit) for the same period in 2015. The decrease is attributable to lower fair value gains realized in our core office portfolio versus a year ago as well as higher tax benefits realized in the prior year, partially offset by higher fair value gains in our core retail portfolio.
Company FFO was $250 million ($0.35 per unit) for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 compared with $198 million ($0.28 per unit) for the same period in 2015. The year-over-year increase was driven by new investments, income from recently signed leases in the core office portfolio, and increased contribution from our multifamily residential operation.

(3) Represents basic net income attributable to holders of LP units. IFRS requires the inclusion of preferred units that are mandatorily convertible into LP units at a price of $25.70 without an add-back to earnings of the associated carry on the preferred units.
(4) Company FFO per unit is calculated based on 711.2 million units outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 (2015 - 712.8 million). See reconciliation of basic net income in the "Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Measures" section below in this press release.
Operating Highlights
Our core office operations generated Company FFO of $150 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2016 compared to $146 million in the same period in 2015. The increase over the prior year reflects higher same-store NOI, primarily driven by new leases at Brookfield Place New York and developments reclassified as operating properties. This growth was partially offset by disposition activity and a lower British pound.
Occupancy in our core office portfolio finished the quarter at 91.7% on over 1.3 million square feet of total leasing. New leases were signed at average rents approximately 14% higher than expiring leases in the quarter. We also continued to advance our development pre-leasing through increased commitments from Amazon at Principal Place in London and Skadden at One Manhattan West in New York City, bringing those projects to 84% and 30% pre-let, respectively. Subsequent to quarter-end, we entered into an agreement with Scotiabank to lease 140,000 square feet at Brookfield Place Calgary, bringing that project to 81% pre-let once the lease is finalized.
Our core retail operations generated Company FFO of $108 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 compared to $109 million in the comparable period in 2015. This modest decrease is attributable to dispositions and higher interest expense due to higher average debt balances over the prior year, somewhat offset by positive same-store revenue growth of 2% derived from higher occupancy and rental rates.
Core same-store retail occupancy finished the second quarter of 2016 at 95.1%, a 50-basis-point increase from the same period in 2015. Signed leases in the quarter totaled 8.2 million square feet, with average suite-to-suite rent spreads of 26% for leases commencing in 2016 and 2017. Tenant sales (excluding anchors) increased by 2.8% on a trailing 12-month basis to $20.2 billion.
Our opportunistic investments generated Company FFO of $110 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 compared to $57 million in the same period in 2015. The significant increase in Company FFO over the prior year was largely a result of investments made during the last twelve months which contributed incremental income of $22 million, income earned on multifamily development dispositions of $21 million, and higher same-store growth in our industrial and hospitality businesses.

Strategic Initiatives
During the second quarter we advanced a number of our capital recycling initiatives through the sales of:
| • | A 33% interest in One New York Plaza. Together with the proceeds raised from a $750 million refinancing of this property earlier in the year, we surfaced a total of approximately $550 million of net equity from this asset. |
| • | An additional 25% interest in Potsdamer Platz in Berlin, resulting in a return of approximately $167 million of equity. |
| • | The King Street Wharf retail precinct in Sydney for A$90 million, generating net proceeds of $29 million. |
| • | Two Ballston Plaza in Northern Virginia for $79 million, generating net proceeds of $75 million. |
| • | A 50% (15% at BPY’s share) interest in the One Stockton retail property in San Francisco for approximately $50 million, generating net proceeds of approximately $42 million ($12 million at BPY’s share). |
| • | The office component of Pioneer Place mall in Portland, OR for approximately $122 million, generating net proceeds of approximately $116 million ($34 million at BPY’s share). |
| • | Our 50% interest in the Interhotel portfolio in Germany for a total price of €823 million in two separate transactions, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $265 million to BPY. The transactions closed in June and on August 1, respectively. |
| • | Subsequent to quarter-end, a 50% interest (15% at BPY’s share) in Fashion Show mall in Las Vegas for $1.25 billion, generating net proceeds of approximately $830 million ($241 million at BPY’s share). |
In addition to these closed transactions, we also advanced further asset sales through entering into contracts to sell:
| · | One Shelley Street in Sydney to an ASX-listed domestic REIT for A$525 million ($250 million of net equity). |
| · | A 50% interest in the Principal Place office development in London at a gross value of £763 million. The transaction will net proceeds of approximately $350 million to BPY when it closes in late 2016/early 2017. |
The proceeds raised from asset sales were used to invest in our active development pipeline and to fund new acquisitions, including:
| · | In our core office business: |
| ̶ | A 50% interest in a 766,000-square-foot development in Washington DC that is 70% pre-let. |
| ̶ | A 10% interest in the Aldgate Tower in London. |
| • | In our core retail business: |
| ̶ | A 50% interest (15% interest at BPY’s share) in 218 West 57th in New York. |
| • | In our opportunistic investing strategy: |
| ̶ | A portfolio of over 5,600 student housing units in the U.K. |
| ̶ | A 1.2 million-square-foot portfolio of suburban office properties in Maryland. |
| ̶ | A portfolio of 33 self-storage properties with 18,500 units in the U.S. |
| ̶ | Subsequent to quarter-end, we closed on the acquisition of Rouse Properties, Inc. at a price of $18.25 per share. |
Balance Sheet Update
To increase our balance sheet flexibility by increasing liquidity and extending the maturity of our debt, we executed on the following during the quarter:
| • | We closed on an additional $700 million of bank commitments on BPY’s corporate credit facility, bringing the total line to $2.5 billion. |
| • | We completed a three-year, $425 million refinancing for One Allen Center, Three Allen Center and 1600 Smith Street in Houston from a consortium of banks at a floating rate of LIBOR plus 3.0%. |
| • | We also completed a four-year, $400 million construction loan for the 655 New York Ave office development in Washington DC, provided by a consortium of banks at a floating rate of LIBOR plus 2.3%. |
| • | Subsequent to quarter-end, we also closed on a £515 million construction loan for 100 Bishopsgate in London from a consortium of banks at a floating rate of LIBOR plus 3.0%. |
Unit Repurchase Program
Utilizing the in-place Normal Course Issuer Bid, the Partnership purchased 341,700 of its Limited Partnership units in the second quarter of 2016 at an average price of $21.99 per unit.
Distribution Declaration

Basis of Presentation
This press release and accompanying financial information make reference to net operating income (“NOI”), same-store NOI, funds from operations (“FFO”), Company FFO (“Company FFO”) and net income attributable to unitholders.
Company FFO and net income attributable to unitholders are also presented on a per unit basis. NOI, same-store NOI, FFO, Company FFO and net income attributable to unitholders do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The Partnership uses NOI, same-store NOI, FFO, Company FFO and net income attributable to unitholders to assess its operating results. These measures should not be used as alternatives to Net Income and other operating measures determined in accordance with IFRS but rather to provide supplemental insights into performance. Further, these measures do not represent liquidity measures or cash flow from operations and are not intended to be representative of the funds available for distribution to unitholders either in aggregate or on a per unit basis, where presented.
NOI is defined as revenues from commercial and hospitality operations of consolidated properties less direct commercial property and hospitality expenses. As NOI includes the revenues and expenses directly associated with owning and operating commercial property and hospitality assets, it provides a measure to evaluate the performance of the property operations.
Same-store NOI is a subset of NOI, which excludes NOI that is earned from assets acquired, disposed of or developed during the periods presented, or not of a recurring nature, and from opportunistic assets. Same-store NOI allows the Partnership to segregate the performance of leasing and operating initiatives on the portfolio from the impact to performance from investing activities and “one-time items”, which for the historical periods presented consist primarily of lease termination income.
FFO is defined as income, including equity accounted income, before realized gains (losses) from the sale of investment property (except gains (losses) related to properties developed for sale), fair value gains (losses) (including equity accounted fair value gains (losses)), depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, income tax expense (benefit), and less non-controlling interests of others in operating subsidiaries and properties. FFO is a widely recognized measure that is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of real estate entities, particularly those that own and operate income producing properties. The Partnership’s definition of FFO includes all of the adjustments that are outlined in the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) definition of FFO. In addition to the adjustments prescribed by NAREIT, the Partnership also makes adjustments to exclude any unrealized fair value gains (or losses) that arise as a result of reporting under IFRS, and income taxes that arise as certain of its subsidiaries are structured as corporations as opposed to real estate investment trusts (“REITs”). These additional adjustments result in an FFO measure that is similar to that which would result if our partnership was organized as a REIT that determined net income in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), which is the type of organization on which the NAREIT definition is premised. The Partnership’s FFO measure will differ from other organizations applying the NAREIT definition to the extent of certain differences between the IFRS and U.S. GAAP reporting frameworks, principally related to the recognition of lease termination income. FFO provides a performance measure that, when compared year-over-year, reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs and interest costs.
Company FFO is defined as FFO before the impact of depreciation and amortization of non-real estate assets, transaction costs, gains (losses) associated with non-investment properties and the FFO that would have been attributable to unitholders’ shares of General Growth Properties, Inc. (“GGP”), if all outstanding warrants of GGP were exercised on a cash-less basis. The Partnership believes this adjustment appropriately reflects its full economic interest in GGP based on the common shares and warrants owned by the Partnership, as such warrants are currently exercisable. The adjustment also includes dilution adjustments to undiluted FFO as a result of the net settled warrants. Company FFO, similar to FFO discussed above, provides a performance measure that reflects the impact on operations of trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs and interest costs. In addition, the adjustments to Company FFO relative to FFO allow the Partnership insight into these trends for the real estate operations, by adjusting for non-real estate components.
Net income attributable to unitholders is defined as net income attributable to holders of general partnership units and limited partnership units of the Partnership, redeemable/exchangeable and special limited partnership units of Brookfield Property L.P. and limited partnership units of Brookfield Office Properties Exchange LP. Net income attributable to unitholders is used by the Partnership to evaluate the performance of the Partnership as a whole as each of the unitholders participates in the economics of the Partnership equally. In calculating net income attributable to unitholders per unit, the Partnership excludes the impact of mandatorily convertible preferred units in determining the average number of units outstanding as the holders of mandatorily convertible preferred units do not participate in current earnings. The Partnership reconciles this measure to basic net income attributable to unitholders per unit determined in accordance with IFRS which includes the effect of mandatorily convertible preferred units in the basic average number of units outstanding.
