Net Income Available to Common Stockholders
Net income available to common stockholders, for the quarter ended December 31, 2008, was $28.3 million as compared to $27.1 million for the same period in 2007. Net income per share for the quarter was unchanged at $0.27 as compared to the same period in 2007.

The calculation to determine net income for a real estate company includes impairments or gains from the sales of investment properties. The amount of impairments or gains on property sales varies from quarter to quarter. This variance can significantly impact net income.
During the fourth quarter of 2008, income from continuing operations available to common stockholders was $0.23 per share as compared to $0.24 per share for the same period in 2007.
During 2008, income from continuing operations available to common stockholders was $0.91 per share as compared to $1.01 per share in 2007.
FFO Available to Common Stockholders
FFO, for the quarter ended December 31, 2008, decreased 1.7% to $47.0 million as compared to $47.8 million for the same period in 2007. FFO per share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2008, decreased 4.2% to $0.46 per share, as compared to $0.48 per share for the same period in 2007. FFO before Crest’s contribution, for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2008, increased 2.2% to $0.46 per share as compared to $0.45 per share for the same period in 2007. Crest Net Lease, Inc. (Crest) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Realty Income.
FFO, for the year ended December 31, 2008, decreased 2.2% to $185.5 million as compared to $189.7 million in 2007. FFO per share, for the year ended December 31, 2008, decreased 3.2% to $1.83 per share as compared to $1.89 per share in 2007. FFO before Crest’s contribution, for the year ended December 31, 2008, increased 2.2% to $1.82 per share as compared to $1.78 per share in 2007. For a calculation of FFO before Crest’s contribution, see page 7.
The Company considers FFO to be an appropriate supplemental measure of a Real Estate Investment Trust’s (REIT’s) operating performance as it is based on a net income analysis of property portfolio performance that excludes non-cash items such as depreciation. FFO is an alternative, non-GAAP measure that is also considered to be a good indicator of a company’s ability to generate income to pay dividends. Realty Income defines FFO consistent with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trust’s (NAREIT’s) definition as net income available to common stockholders plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, reduced by gains on sales of investment properties and extraordinary items. See reconciliation of net income available to common stockholders to FFO on pages 7 and 8.

Portfolio Management Activities
The Company’s portfolio of retail real estate, owned primarily under 15- to 20-year net leases, continues to perform well and provide dependable lease revenue supporting the payment of monthly dividends. As of December 31, 2008, portfolio occupancy was 97.0% with 70 properties available for lease out of a total of 2,348 properties in the portfolio.
Rent Increases
During the three months ended December 31, 2008, same store rents on 1,772 properties under lease increased 0.4% to $64.59 million as compared to $64.34 million for the same quarter in 2007. During the year ended December 31, 2008, same store rents on 1,772 properties under lease increased 1.1% to $258.7 million as compared to $255.9 million in 2007.
Excluding 104 properties leased to Buffets, Inc. (whereby rents were recently renegotiated), during the quarter ended December 31, 2008, same store rents on 1,668 properties under lease increased 1.5% to $59.7 million, as compared to $58.8 million for the same quarter in 2007. During the year ended December 31, 2008, same store rents on the same 1,668 properties under lease, increased 1.4% to $237.1 million, as compared to $233.9 million in 2007.
Property Acquisitions
During the fourth quarter of 2008, Realty Income invested $1.1 million in previously acquired properties. For the year ended December 31, 2008, Realty Income invested $189.6 million in 108 new properties and properties under development with an initial average contractual lease yield of 8.7%. The 108 properties are located in 14 states and are 100% leased under net-lease agreements with an initial average lease term of 20.6 years. These new properties are leased to eight different retail chains in seven separate industries. Crest did not acquire any new properties in 2008.
Realty Income maintains a $355 million unsecured acquisition credit facility, which is used to fund property acquisitions in the near term. There is currently no outstanding balance on the Company’s acquisition credit facility, and the full $355 million is available to fund new property acquisitions. In addition, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $46.8 million at December 31, 2008.
Property Dispositions
Realty Income continued to successfully execute its asset disposition program in 2008. The objective of this program is to sell assets when the Company believes the reinvestment of the sales proceeds will generate higher returns, enhance the credit quality of the Company's real estate portfolio, increase the average lease length, or decrease tenant or industry concentration.
During the quarter ended December 31, 2008, Realty Income sold seven properties for $8.6 million, which resulted in a gain on sales of $4.1 million.
During 2008, Realty Income sold 29 properties and a portion of land from another property for $27.8 million, which resulted in a gain on sales of $13.6 million.
Other Activities
New and Expanded Credit Facility
In May 2008, Realty Income entered into a new $355 million unsecured acquisition credit facility to replace its existing $300 million acquisition credit facility. Under the terms of the new facility, available funds were increased by $55 million plus an additional $100 million accordion expansion feature. The initial term of the new credit facility runs from May 2008 through May 2011 plus two, one-year extension options.
Issued 2.925 million Shares of Common Stock
In September 2008, Realty Income issued 2,925,000 shares of common stock, including 225,000 shares purchased by the underwriters upon the exercise of their over-allotment options. Net proceeds from the offering were approximately $74.4 million. These proceeds, combined with available cash on hand, were used to repay the $100 million outstanding principal amount of the Company’s 8.25% Monthly Income Senior Notes, which came due in November, and to repay the $20 million outstanding principal amount of the Company’s 8% Notes, which came due in January 2009.
Retirement of all $100 million of the 8.25% Monthly Income Senior Notes
In November 2008, Realty Income retired all $100 million of its outstanding 8.25% Monthly Income Senior Notes, NYSE ticker symbol OUI, upon maturity.
3
Retirement of all $20 million of the 8.0% Senior Notes
In January 2009, Realty Income retired all $20 million of its outstanding 8.0% Senior Notes upon maturity. With repayment of these notes the Company has no further debt maturities until 2013.
Crest Net Lease
Crest is focused on acquiring and subsequently marketing net-leased properties for sale. Crest did not acquire or sell any properties during the fourth quarter of 2008.
For the year ended December 31, 2008, Crest sold 25 properties for $50.7 million and reported a gain on sales of $4.6 million. As of December 31, 2008, Crest carried an inventory of $6.0 million, which consisted of five properties held for sale. Crest did not acquire any new properties during 2008.
Crest’s contribution to Realty Income’s FFO (and net income) depends on the timing and number of property sales, if any, in a given quarter. Therefore, Crest’s contribution can fluctuate and add volatility to Realty Income’s reported FFO and net income on a comparable quarterly and annualized basis. During the fourth quarter of 2008, Crest contributed $8,000 of FFO, which represents $0.00 per share of Realty Income’s FFO, as compared to $2.7 million or $0.03 per share, which was generated by Crest for Realty Income during the same period in 2007.
For the year ended December 31, 2008, Crest generated $1.3 million, or $0.01 per share, in FFO for Realty Income as compared to $10.7 million, or $0.11 per share, in FFO for Realty Income in 2007.
CEO Comments on Operating Results
Commenting on Realty Income’s financial results and real estate operations, Chief Executive Officer, Tom A. Lewis said, “We are pleased with our results given the current environment in the credit markets and overall economy. We are fortunate to be in a very liquid position with over $30 million in cash on hand today and no balance on our $355 million credit facility. The Company also has no mortgages on any of its 2,348 properties and no debt maturities for four years, or until 2013. Additionally, we have no properties under development, no joint ventures and no off balance sheet assets or liabilities of any kind. As such, we believe we are well positioned to manage the Company during these difficult times.”
“Our focus during the fourth quarter continued to be on strengthening our balance sheet, maintaining substantial liquidity and managing our portfolio to maximize current occupancy and ongoing cash flow. During the quarter, we retired the outstanding $100 million in 8.25% Senior Notes, NYSE ticker symbol OUI, that were due in November 2008. During the first quarter of 2009, we also repaid the $20 million in 8% Senior Notes that were due in January 2009. All of these notes were retired with cash on hand.”
“During the fourth quarter, occupancy increased to 97% with just 70 of our 2,348 properties available for lease. This increase was due to substantial progress in the leasing efforts of our portfolio management department during the quarter. In addition, same store rents rose 0.4% during the fourth quarter, and 1.1% for the year ended December 31, 2008. Given the ongoing softness in the retail industry, we are very pleased with this performance. We would note, however, that until the economic environment improves, investors can expect that many retailers will continue to struggle operationally. While Realty Income’s real estate portfolio, with long-term, 15 to 20-year leases in place, should continue to perform well, relative to other property types with shorter lease terms, we would note that we are certainly not immune to challenges should the economy continue to decline.”
“With respect to real estate acquisitions, we have largely remained on the sidelines for the past three quarters as we have felt that properties we could have purchased would likely be less expensive in the future. For the year, we invested just under $190 million in 108 new properties, with nearly all of these acquisitions completed during the first quarter of 2008. We continue to believe that the initial lease yields on potential property acquisitions do not yet fully reflect the tightness in the credit markets and so we are unwilling to invest at the current prices. With that said, we continue to review acquisition opportunities and perform due diligence on a number of potential transactions. Given our substantial liquidity position, we have funds on hand to invest in size should attractively priced acquisitions emerge over the coming months.”
“During the fourth quarter, revenue increased 3.2% and FFO per share generated by our core portfolio (or FFO before Crest’s contribution), from which we pay monthly dividends, increased 2.2% to $0.46 per share, in comparison to the prior year. During 2008, we experienced strong revenue growth of 12.2% and FFO per share from our core portfolio increased 2.2% to $1.82 per share as compared to $1.78 during 2007. In addition, we increased the dividend five times during 2008, and cash dividends paid to shareholders increased 6.5%.”

“While we continue to operate conservatively in a challenging economic and retail environment, we have been fortunate to have a strong portfolio of good properties, which have remained profitable to our retailers, and are often the key to the ongoing profitability of our tenant’s business. We believe this has kept occupancy high during 2008 and, when coupled with our conservative balance sheet and strong liquidity, is serving us very well during the current economic downturn.”
FFO Commentary
Realty Income’s FFO per share has historically tended to be stable and fairly predictable because of the long-term leases that are the primary source of the Company’s revenue. There are, however, several factors that can cause FFO per share to vary from levels that have been anticipated by the Company. These factors include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rates, occupancy rates, periodically accessing the capital markets, the level and timing of property acquisitions and dispositions, lease rollovers, the general real estate market, the economy, charges for property impairments, and the operations of Crest.
2009 Estimates
Management estimates that FFO per share for 2009 should range from $1.83 to $1.90, which represents annual FFO per share growth of approximately 0.0% to 3.8%, as compared to 2008 FFO per share of $1.83. FFO for 2009 is based on an estimated net income per share range of $0.99 to $1.06, adjusted (in accordance with NAREIT’s definition of FFO) for estimated real estate depreciation of $0.89 and potential gain on sales of investment properties of $0.05 per share.
Management notes that, given the volatility in the markets, it is more challenging than usual to estimate a number of factors that will impact the Company’s future results. For example, new property acquisition levels could vary depending on the number of opportunities, capitalization rates and the availability of attractively priced permanent financing. As such, management would add that the $1.83 FFO per share estimate assumes no new property acquisitions for 2009. The $1.90 FFO per share estimate assumes property acquisitions of approximately $375 million in 2009.
Management further estimates that Crest could contribute between $0.00 and $0.01 per share to Realty Income’s FFO during 2009. Crest’s primary business is the purchase and sale of properties for a profit. These sales may occur at various times during the course of the year and could cause FFO, in certain quarters, to fluctuate on a comparable quarterly and annualized basis.

CONTRIBUTIONS BY CREST TO FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS
(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)
Crest acquires properties with the intention of reselling them rather than holding them as investments and operating the properties. Consequently, we typically classify properties acquired by Crest as held for sale at the date of acquisition and do not depreciate them. The operations of Crest’s properties are classified as “income from discontinued operations, real estate acquired for resale”. | ||||||||||||||||
