Item 7.01 Regulation FD.
On December 23, 2013, Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (the “General Partner”), the general partner of Mack-Cali Realty, L.P., issued a press release expressing comfort with net income and funds from operations (“FFO”) per diluted share for the full year 2014 as follows:
|
| Full Year |
|
|
| 2014 Range |
|
Net income available to common shareholders |
| $0.01 - $0.21 |
|
Add: Real estate-related depreciation and amortization |
| 1.89 |
|
Funds from operations available to common shareholders |
| $1.90 - $2.10 |
|
The above estimates reflect management’s view of current market conditions and certain assumptions with regard to rental rates, occupancy levels and other assumptions/projections. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
It should be noted that FFO per diluted share as referenced in this Form 8-K is a non-generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) measure of the General Partner’s performance in addition to its net income available to common shareholders per share. FFO is defined as net income (loss) before noncontrolling interest of unitholders, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from extraordinary items, sales of depreciable rental property, and impairments related to depreciable rental property, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization. The General Partner believes that FFO per share is helpful to investors as one of several measures of the performance of an equity REIT. The General Partner further believes that as FFO per share excludes the effect of depreciation, gains (or losses) from sales of properties and impairments related to depreciable rental property (all of which are based on historical costs which may be of limited relevance in evaluating current performance), FFO per share can facilitate comparison of operating performance between equity REITs.
FFO per share should not be considered as an alternative to net income available to common shareholders per share as an indication of the General Partner’s performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. FFO per share presented herein and the press release filed herewith is not necessarily comparable to FFO per share presented by other real estate companies due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same definition. However, the General Partner’s FFO per share is comparable to the FFO per share of real estate companies that use the current definition of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”).
The General Partner’s press release announcing the net income and FFO guidance is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
