| | • | | Core FFO of $6.8 million, or $0.21 per diluted share for the quarter ended June 30, 2014. |

| | • | | Construction contract backlog of $179.0 million as of June 30, 2014, which includes the Harbor Point project in Baltimore, Maryland. |
| | • | | Cash dividend of $0.16 per share payable on October 9, 2014 to stockholders of record on October 1, 2014. |
| | • | | Today, the company announced that West Elm, Free People, lululemon, francesca’s and Tupelo Honey Cafe have signed leases for retail space at the Town Center of Virginia Beach. This completes the co-tenancy requirement for the anchor tenant, Anthropologie, and rounds out the Company’s strategy to position Town Center as a premium upscale destination. |
| | • | | On August 4, 2014, the Company announced that it has entered into an agreement to acquire Dimmock Square, a retail power center located in Colonial Heights, Virginia. The Dimmock Square acquisition will add over 100,000 square feet of 100% occupied retail space to the Company’s operating property portfolio. The agreement provides that |

| | the Company will acquire a 100% interest in Dimmock Square in exchange for approximately 990,000 units of limited partnership interest in the Company’s operating partnership and approximately $10 million of cash. The acquisition is expected to be accretive to annual FFO per diluted share and is expected to close in the third quarter of 2014. |
| | • | | The Company is continuing its long-standing strategy to sell single tenant assets from time-to-time. The Company recently entered into an agreement to sell the Virginia Natural Gas office building, located near Town Center, for approximately $8.9 million, representing approximately 6.25 percent cap rate. |
“This morning we reported another solid quarter and raised our full-year 2014 outlook,” commented Louis Haddad, Chief Executive Officer. “We are excited about the second-half of the year. We are executing on the goals laid out at the beginning of 2014 and, while only mid-way through the year, we have made great progress. This is a very exciting time for our company as each of our three divisions is firing on all cylinders.”
Financial Results
Net income was $2.3 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2014. FFO was $6.3 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, and Core FFO was $6.8 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The Company believes that Core FFO is a useful supplemental performance measure as it excludes certain items including, but not limited to, losses on debt extinguishments, non-cash compensation expense and effects from non-stabilized development projects. A reconciliation of GAAP net income to FFO and Core FFO is presented on page eight of this release.
Operating Performance
The Company executed new and renewal office and retail leases totaling 49,262 square feet. At the end of the first quarter, the Company’s office, retail and multifamily operating property portfolios were 95.3%, 93.5% and 94.9% occupied, respectively.
Balance Sheet and Financing Activity
At the end of the first quarter, the Company had total outstanding debt of approximately $350 million, including $88.0 million outstanding on its revolving credit facility. Approximately 42% of the Company’s debt had fixed interest rates at June 30, 2014 and after considering interest rate swaps and LIBOR interest rate caps with strike prices at or below 150 basis points, approximately 75% of the Company’s debt was fixed or hedged at June 30, 2014.

Outlook
The Company revised its full-year 2014 outlook parameters.
| | • | | The Company raised its full-year 2014 Core FFO expectations, which excludes the impact from non-stabilized projects and non-cash comp, to approximately $27.5 million from the previous expectation, which was in-line with the full-year 2013 Core FFO (approximately $26.5 million). |
This includes the impact from the recently announced Dimmock Square acquisition, which is expected to positively impact Core FFO by approximately $470,000, assuming a mid-third quarter 2014 closing.
| | • | | The Company expects to deliver five development projects. These projects include: Greentree Shopping Center; Encore Apartments; and Whetstone Apartments; in addition to the already delivered 4525 Main Street, delivered in July 2014, and Liberty Apartments, completed in January 2014. The Company now expects the negative impact from non-stabilized projects in 2014 to be approximately $1.0 million compared to the previous expectation of $1.5 million. This is the amount that the Company will exclude from Core FFO. |
| | • | | The Company revised expected full-year 2014 general and administrative expenses to be approximately $7.6 million compared to the previous expectation of $7.8 million |
| | • | | Finally, the Company now expects the construction company’s annual segment profits to be approximately $4.3 million compared to the previous expectation of $4.0 million. |

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company calculates FFO in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). NAREIT defines FFO as net income (loss) (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable operating property, real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs) and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.
FFO is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure. The Company uses FFO as a supplemental performance measure because it believes that FFO is beneficial to investors as a starting point in measuring the Company’s operational performance. Specifically, in excluding real estate related depreciation and amortization and gains and losses from property dispositions, which do not relate to or are not indicative of operating performance, FFO provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, captures trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs. We also believe that, as a widely recognized measure of the performance of REITs, FFO will be used by investors as a basis to compare the Company’s operating performance with that of other REITs.
However, because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization and captures neither the changes in the value of the Company’s properties that result from use or market conditions nor the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of the Company’s properties, all of which have real economic effects and could materially impact the Company’s results from operations, the utility of FFO as a measure of the Company’s performance is limited. In addition, other equity REITs may not calculate FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition as the Company does, and, accordingly, the Company’s FFO may not be comparable to such other REITs’ FFO. Accordingly, FFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income as a measure of the Company’s performance.
Management also believes that the computation of FFO in accordance with NAREIT’s definition includes certain items that are not indicative of the results provided by the Company’s operating property portfolio and affect the comparability of the Company’s period-over-period performance. Accordingly, the Company further adjusts FFO to arrive at Core FFO, which
eliminates certain of these items, including, but not limited to, gains and losses on the extinguishment of debt and non-cash stock compensation expense.
