Oak Brook, Illinois, October 25, 2005 – CenterPoint Properties Trust (NYSE: CNT) reported today that earnings per share (“EPS”) increased 36.5% in the third quarter 2005 to $0.86 from $0.63 for the same period in 2004. Net income available to common shareholders increased 39.1% to $41.6 million from $29.9 million for the third quarter 2004.
Funds from operations (“FFO”) per share increased 6.2% in the third quarter 2005 to $0.69 (the middle of management’s third quarter 2005 guidance range) from $0.65 for the same period in 2004. CenterPoint defines FFO as: net income available to common shareholders plus real estate depreciation and non-financing amortization, inclusive of fee income and gain or losses on industrial property sales (net of accumulated depreciation) of the Company and its unconsolidated affiliates. See attached Reporting Definitions and Reconciliation for further explanation of FFO.
CenterPoint tightened its annual guidance ranges for 2005 and currently expects to report EPS in the range of $2.69 to $2.79 and FFO per share in the range of $2.54 to $2.60. For the fourth quarter 2005, the Company expects to report EPS in the range of $0.76 to $0.86 and FFO per share in the range of $0.67 to $0.73.
“We more than doubled our development pipeline this past quarter, which now totals about 5.5 million square feet. We have completed $261 million of total investments and have an additional $125 million of acquisitions under contract, letter of intent or in negotiation. Furthermore, we continue to make solid
leasing progress and have addressed more than 75% of 2005 expirations and 56% of our total inventory,” stated Mike Mullen, Chief Executive Officer.
“The 1.4-billion-square-foot Chicago industrial property market remains active and we continue to exploit new ‘value-added’ opportunities. The Wal-Mart build-to-suit is significant, not only in development value, but also as an indicator of significant logistics trends. Illinois’ unparalleled transportation network is attracting new companies to the region, which is the third largest container ‘hub’ in the world. Logistics efficiencies realized by locating in Chicago will continue to fuel demand for industrial space and new intermodal development in this region.”
“There is considerable value in our 3,300-acre ‘land bank’ and strategically located land remains a competitive advantage for CenterPoint. Some of our major land parcels have more than doubled in value over the last five years. We also continue to look at other attractive parcels throughout metropolitan Chicago for investment.”
Leasing Progress
Year-to-date, the Company has addressed 6.1 million square feet, or 56.6% of total inventory, which includes 2005 expiries, beginning year vacancy and acquired vacancy and expiries. Of 2005 expiries, the Company has addressed 4.1 million square feet or 75.2% of beginning year 2005 expirations. On total leasing activity, year-to-date rents increased 7.7% on a straight-line basis and 1.3% on a cash basis.
Detailed portfolio activity is available on page 16 of the Company’s Supplemental Investor Package, which is posted in the upper left hand corner of the investor relations page of the Company’s website, www.centerpoint-prop.com.
Excluding properties sold, the Company retained 93.7% of its tenants. At the end of the third quarter, 86.2% of the Company’s in-service industrial portfolio is leased and occupied compared to 87.6% at the end of the second quarter 2005.
“We are making significant progress in processing our inventory, including 2005 expiries. While vacancy slightly increased as a percentage, this is the result of higher asset sales, which shrunk the overall portfolio base. Looking ahead, 2006 lease expirations are manageable and will allow us to focus on leasing up existing vacancy,” remarked Sean Maher, Executive Vice President, Portfolio Operations. “There is significant opportunity in leasing and we are optimistic in light of solid market activity.”
Strong Investment Pipeline
Year-to-date, CenterPoint and its affiliates have completed total investments of $260.9 million. Of this total, CenterPoint completed $232.3 million. Stabilized, these investments are expected to produce a weighted average straight-line yield of 9.7% and a weighted average initial cash yield of 9.2%. Third quarter 2005 investments included the acquisition of five buildings totaling 772,245 square feet. CenterPoint also purchased 226 acres of land for future development in Lake County, Illinois along the I-94 corridor.
Jim Clewlow, Chief Investment Officer, noted, “Our franchise in this market, and our focus on ‘value-added’ opportunities, has been the key to identifying attractive acquisitions in a very competitive environment. We have dealmakers covering every submarket of metropolitan Chicago. Our investment officers are focused solely on buying buildings and land where we can add value. We leverage a large network of industrial brokers to help identify and facilitate these transactions.”
Development Pipeline Growing
CenterPoint and its affiliates currently have nine developments under construction totaling 5.5 million square feet or $231.6 million. Of this total, the Company’s combined development projects under lease
are 98% occupied and are expected to produce a weighted average straight-line yield of 10.4% and a weighted average initial cash yield of 10.1%.
During the quarter, CenterPoint completed and delivered the 181,715-square-foot build-to-suit for Ta Chen at CenterPoint Business Center – Gurnee in Gurnee, IL.
On August 30, CenterPoint signed a contract to develop a bulk storage facility for Wal-Mart at CenterPoint Intermodal Center (“CIC”) in Elwood, Illinois. The facility will be comprised of two distribution buildings of 1.6 million square feet and 1.8 million square feet. The project has commenced with completion scheduled for the second half of 2006. The transaction is structured as a 15-year lease with purchase options.
Also in the third quarter, CenterPoint Properties contracted to sell the 1.0 million-square-foot speculative development at CIC to Georgia Pacific, a leading international manufacturer of tissue, packaging, paper, building products and related chemicals. The new distribution center for Georgia Pacific is a consolidation of three smaller Midwest distribution facilities into a single large facility at CIC, and will be completed and sold in the fourth quarter 2005.
Including the transactions above, approximately seven million square feet of industrial buildings have been developed, or are under construction, at CIC since the opening of the BNSF Railway Company’s intermodal facility in September 2002. This is ahead of CenterPoint’s original development projections.
“We signed 4.4 million square feet of deals this quarter at CIC. Additionally, we continue to see strong demand at all of our eight major business parks under development,” commented Michael Murphy, Senior Vice President, Development.
“The Lake County land purchased this quarter was the last parcel in our ‘land bank’ that was still under option. We purchased the site to exploit demand in the northern region of metropolitan Chicago and specifically along Interstate 94 up to Milwaukee.”
2005 Dispositions Complete or Under Contract
Year-to-date, CenterPoint and its affiliates have completed $452.0 million of dispositions. CenterPoint completed $404.4 million of the total. Proceeds are redeployed into CenterPoint’s large and expanding pipeline of build-to-suit developments and investments.
Third quarter 2005 dispositions were highlighted by the sale of $114.0 million of industrial buildings, part of the $392.7 million phased portfolio sale previously announced on April 7, 2005. The ten buildings sold in the third quarter total 2.8 million square feet and are located in various submarkets of metropolitan Chicago. The assets were sold to the venture created between the Company and JF US Industrial Trust (ASX: JUICA). JF US Industrial Trust is managed by James Fielding Funds Management Limited, part of the Mirvac Group. CenterPoint retains a 5% promoted interest in the venture and is managing the portfolio for fees. The remaining 25 buildings totaling 4.7 million square feet will be sold in approximately equal amounts in the fourth quarter 2005 and the first quarter 2006.
Jim Clewlow noted, “The Chicago industrial property market remains very liquid with strong demand from a variety of buyers. As a result, cap rates remain at historic lows and we don’t expect any near-term movement.”
Substantial Financial Capacity
At September 30, CenterPoint had $730.0 million of senior debt outstanding producing a debt to total market capitalization of 24.0%. For the third quarter 2005, debt service coverage was 9.0 to 1 and fixed charge coverage was 7.3 to 1. Currently, CenterPoint’s total debt bears a weighted average interest rate of 5.2%.
“Our balance sheet remains strong and asset sales are funding our large and expanding pipeline of investments. Our joint ventures are available to support additional investment, broadening the Company’s
share of the metropolitan Chicago investment market” stated Paul Fisher, President and Chief Financial Officer. “Asset sales this year also allowed us to repurchase $26 million of common shares at an attractive price during the past two quarters.”
CenterPoint Venture LLC
CenterPoint Venture LLC, a joint venture between CenterPoint Properties and CalEast (a joint venture between CalPERS and LaSalle Investment Management) acquires or develops, packages and sells stabilized industrial property investment opportunities outside the Company’s more “value-added” investment focus.
CenterPoint Venture contributed EPS of $0.01 and FFO per share of $0.02 year-to-date. As of September 30, 2005, assets in CenterPoint Venture totaled $146.1 million.
In third quarter 2005, CenterPoint Venture acquired one building totaling 300,128 square feet in Melrose Park, IL. It also sold a 164,536-square-foot building located in Milwaukee, WI.
Dividends
CenterPoint’s Board of Trustees declared a fourth quarter 2005 dividend of $0.4275 per common share, to be paid November 2, 2005 to shareholders of record October 20, 2005. On an annualized basis, this equates to $1.71 per share for the year 2005.
The Board of Trustees also declared a dividend of $0.9375 per share on its 7.50% Series B Convertible Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares (NYSE:CNTPRB) to be paid December 29, 2005 to shareholders of record December 15, 2005 and a dividend of $26.89 per share of its Series D Preferred Shares to be paid December 15, 2005 to shareholders of record December 1, 2005.
For the third quarter 2005, the Company’s FFO payout ratio was 62%.
Chicago Industrial Market Active
Based on combined data from Colliers, Bennett & Kahnweiler (“CB&K”) and The Polacheck Company, CenterPoint estimates gross absorption in the 1.4-billion-square-foot market was 46.6 million square feet for the first nine months 2005 compared to 37.0 million square feet absorbed in the first nine months 2004. Market-wide vacancy for the third quarter 2005 was approximately 9.0% compared to 8.9% last quarter.
Year-to-date, submarkets showing significant gross absorption included the Southwest Suburbs, O’Hare, Fox Valley and Chicago South. For the third quarter, submarkets showing the greatest gross absorption include the Southwest Suburbs, DeKalb County and Fox Valley.
Construction completions year-to-date 2005 totaled approximately 14.0 million square feet.
CenterPoint Properties Trust
CenterPoint is a publicly traded real estate investment trust (REIT) and the largest industrial property company in the 1.4-billion-square-foot Chicago regional market. As of September 30, 2005, the Company owned approximately 38 million square feet and the Company and its affiliates owned or controlled an additional 3,053 acres of land upon which approximately 44.1 million square feet could be developed.

CENTERPOINT PROPERTIES TRUST AND AFFILIATES
THIRD QUARTER 2005 EARNINGS RELEASE DEFINITIONS
Cash Yield is initial Net Operating Income, excluding straight line rents, divided by total project cost, adjusted for tax increment financing.
Debt Service Coverage is EBITDA divided by interest incurred, net.
Debt to Total Market Cap is total debt from the balance sheet divided by the sum of total debt from the balance sheet plus the market value of shares outstanding at the end of the period.
EBITDAstands for earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Management believes that EBITDA is helpful to investors as an indication of property operations, because it excludes costs of financing and non-cash depreciation and amortization amounts. EBITDA does not represent cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP, should not be considered by the reader as an alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance, and is not indicative of cash available to fund all cash flow needs. Investors are cautioned that EBITDA, as calculated by the Company, may not be comparable to similarly titled but differently calculated measurers for other REITs.
FFO Payout Ratio is dividends paid during the period divided into Funds from Operations for that same period.
FFO Return on Common Equity is calculated as FFO divided by common equity.
Fixed Charge Coverage is EBITDA divided by the total of interest incurred, net and preferred dividends
Funds From Operations (FFO) The National Associations of Real Estate Investment Trust (“NAREIT”) defines funds from operations (“FFO”) (April, 2002 White Paper) as net income excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization. NAREIT adds, “management of each of its member companies has the responsibility and authority to publish financial information that it regards as useful to the financial community.” Accordingly, CenterPoint calculates FFO, inclusive of fee income and industrial property sales (net of accumulated depreciation) of the Company and its unconsolidated affiliates. The Company believes that FFO inclusive of cash gains better reflects recurring funds because the disposition of stabilized properties, and the recycling of capital and profits into new “value added” investments, is fundamental to the Company’s business strategy.
Second Generation Costs include all capitalized costs incident to leasing, operating or improving the company’s portfolio excluding costs budgeted at acquisition or initial development or costs expended to materially increase the revenue potential of a property. Second Generation Costs, deducted in calculating FAD, can include leasing commissions and related costs, tenant specific improvements, or improvements to land or buildings.
Straight-Line Yield is average NOI, divided by total project cost, adjusted for tax increment financing.
Weighted Average Straight-Line Yield is calculated as the average NOI, for the 12 months following stabilization, adjusted for TIF, divided by total costs.
Weighted Average Initial Cash Yield is calculated as the total NOI, excluding straight-line rents, for the 12 months following stabilization, divided by total costs.
Weighted Average Interest Rate is the annual interest expense for the current outstanding debt (most current interest rate X current debt outstanding) divided into the current debt outstanding.
