Exhibit 99.1
Equity Residential Reports First Quarter Results
CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 2, 2006--Equity Residential
(NYSE:EQR) today reported results for the quarter ended March 31,
2006. All per share results are reported on a fully diluted basis.
"As expected, 2006 will be a very good year for the multifamily
industry," said David J. Neithercut, Equity Residential's President
and CEO. "We continue to see good job growth and household formation
across all of our markets. That, combined with little new supply,
existing rental units taken off the market when converted to
condominiums and the rising cost of single family homes, make for the
strongest fundamentals we have seen in years."
First Quarter 2006
For the quarter ended March 31, 2006, the company reported
earnings of $1.25 per share compared to $0.74 per share in the first
quarter of 2005. The quarterly increase is primarily attributable to
higher gains on sales of properties as well as the items discussed
below.
Funds from Operations (FFO) for the quarter ended March 31, 2006
were $0.56 per share compared to $0.74 per share in the same period of
2005. The decrease is primarily attributable to an $0.18 per share
decrease in other income due to the gain recognized in 2005 from
eBay's acquisition of the company's interest in Rent.com, a $0.03 per
share reduction in gains on sales of land parcels and a $0.02 per
share decrease in incremental gains on sales of condominiums, offset
by a $0.05 per share improvement in same-store NOI results.
Total revenues from continuing operations for the quarter were
$521.0 million compared to $444.0 million in the first quarter of
2005. The primary components of this $77.0 million increase in
revenues include the properties acquired in 2005.
"Same-Store" Results
"Our same-store properties experienced exceptionally strong net
operating income ("NOI") growth of 6.3% in the first quarter," said
Mr. Neithercut. "Once again the benefits of our portfolio
repositioning were evident in the first quarter, with our 2003
acquisitions achieving 9.2% NOI growth and the 2004 acquisitions
delivering NOI growth of 10.8%."
On a "same-store" first quarter to first quarter comparison, which
includes 158,398 units, revenues increased 6.0 percent, expenses
increased 5.7 percent and NOI increased 6.3 percent. The increase in
same-store revenues was driven primarily by increases in occupancy and
rental rate and a decrease in concessions. The same-store expense
increase was primarily attributable to increases in utilities, real
estate taxes and insurance.
Acquisitions/Dispositions
During the first quarter of 2006, the company acquired eleven
properties, consisting of 2,779 units, for an aggregate purchase price
of $506.6 million at an average capitalization (cap) rate of 5.0
percent and two land parcels for $14.2 million.
Also during the quarter, the company sold 25 properties,
consisting of 8,110 units, for an aggregate sale price of $799.9
million at an average cap rate of 5.5 percent. In addition, the
company sold 171 condominium units for $35.0 million.
Lexford Housing Division Sale
On March 2, 2006, Equity Residential announced that it had
retained JPMorgan to assist the company in the possible sale of its
Lexford Housing Division, currently comprised of 289 properties consisting of
26,118 apartment units and a property management business based in
Columbus, Ohio. Potential purchasers are currently in contact with
JPMorgan but there can be no guarantee that a sale will occur.
Second Quarter 2006 Results
Equity Residential expects to announce second quarter 2006 results
on Tuesday, August 1, 2006 and host a conference call to discuss those
results at 10:00 a.m. CT on Wednesday, August 2, 2006.
Equity Residential is the largest publicly traded apartment
company in America. Nationwide, Equity Residential owns or has
investments in 911 properties, in 31 states and the District of
Columbia, consisting of 192,240 units. For more information on Equity

(1) The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts
("NAREIT") defines funds from operations ("FFO") (April 2002 White
Paper) as net income (computed in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP")),
excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable property,
plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for
unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for
unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated
to reflect funds from operations on the same basis. The April 2002
White Paper states that gain or loss on sales of property is
excluded from FFO for previously depreciated operating properties
only. Once the Company commences the conversion of units to
condominiums, it simultaneously discontinues depreciation of such
property.
(2) The Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors as a
supplemental measure of the operating performance of a real estate
company, because it is a recognized measure of performance by the
real estate industry and by excluding gains or losses related to
dispositions of depreciable property and excluding real estate
depreciation (which can vary among owners of identical assets in
similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful
life estimates), FFO can help compare the operating performance of
a company's real estate between periods or as compared to
different companies. FFO in and of itself does not represent net
income or net cash flows from operating activities in accordance
with GAAP. Therefore, FFO should not be exclusively considered as
an alternative to net income or to net cash flows from operating
activities as determined by GAAP or as a measure of liquidity. The
Company's calculation of FFO may differ from other real estate
companies due to, among other items, variations in cost
capitalization policies for capital expenditures and, accordingly,
may not be comparable to such other real estate companies.

(1) Fourth Quarter 2005 expenses exclude $11.1 million of uninsured
property damage caused by Hurricane Wilma.
(2) The Company's primary financial measure for evaluating each of its
apartment communities is net operating income ("NOI"). NOI
represents rental income less property and maintenance expense,
real estate tax and insurance expense, and property management
expense. The Company believes that NOI is helpful to investors as
a supplemental measure of the operating performance of a real
estate company because it is a direct measure of the actual
operating results of the Company's apartment communities.

(1) Earnings per share ("EPS") represents net income per share
calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States. Expected EPS is calculated on a
basis consistent with actual EPS. Due to the uncertain timing and
extent of property dispositions and the resulting gains/losses on
sales, actual EPS could differ materially from expected EPS.
(2) The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts
("NAREIT") defines funds from operations ("FFO") (April 2002 White
Paper) as net income (computed in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States), excluding
gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable property, plus
depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for
unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for
unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated
to reflect funds from operations on the same basis. Expected FFO
is calculated on a basis consistent with actual FFO.
