    NEW HYDE PARK, N.Y., Feb. 13 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Kimco Realty
Corporation (NYSE: KIM) today announced that net income for the quarter ended
December 31, 2005 increased 42.0 percent to $107.7 million compared to $75.8
million a year earlier. On a per share basis, net income increased 40.6 percent
to $0.45 from $0.32 reported for the fourth quarter last year. Funds from
operations ("FFO"), a widely accepted supplemental measure of REIT performance,
rose 23.0 percent to $127.5 million during the quarter from $103.6 million for
the same period last year. On a per share basis, fourth quarter FFO increased
22.2 percent to $0.55 from $0.45 a year ago. Funds from operations excludes
gains on dispositions of operating properties net of minority interests and
joint venture properties of approximately $19.0 million, or $0.08 per diluted
common share in 2005 and $4.5 million, or approximately $0.02 per share in 2004.

    For the year ended December 31, 2005, net income was $363.6 million or $1.52
per share compared to $297.1 million, or $1.26 per share a year earlier. Funds
from operations rose 14.6 percent to $464.7 million from $405.3 million in the
year earlier period. On a diluted per common share basis, FFO increased 13.0
percent to $2.00 from $1.77 a year ago. Funds from operations for the current
year excludes gains on dispositions of operating properties net of minority
interests and joint venture properties of $45.4 million or approximately $0.19
per diluted common share and $19.4 million or approximately $0.08 per diluted
common share for the same period last year.

    These operating results are consistent with the Company's objective of
generating a high level of income and FFO growth over time. Kimco's compound
annual growth rate in FFO per share is 10.7 percent in the 14 year period since
its initial public offering in 1991.

    Funds from operations (FFO) is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure
used as a standard in the real estate industry to measure and compare the
operating performance of real estate companies. A complete reconciliation
containing adjustments from GAAP net income to FFO is included in this release.

percent from 94.2 percent at September 30, 2005 and 93.6 percent a year earlier.

    Note: Reclassifications: Certain amounts in the prior period have been
reclassified in order to conform with the current period's presentation.

    (1) Included in the calculation of income from continuing operations per
        share in accordance with SEC guidelines.
    (2) The potential impact if certain units were converted to common stock at
        the beginning of the period. Net income would be increased by $1,739 for
        the three months ended December 31, 2005.
    (3) Reflects the potential impact if certain units were converted to common
        stock at the beginning of the period. The impact of the conversion would
        have an anti-dilutive effect on net income and therefore have not been
        included.

    (1) Most industry analysts and equity REITs, including the Company,
        generally consider funds from operations ("FFO") to be an appropriate
        supplemental measure of the performance of an equity REIT. FFO is
        defined as net income applicable to common shares before depreciation
        and amortization, extraordinary items, cumulative effect of accounting
        changes, gains on sales of operating real estate, plus the pro-rata
        amount of depreciation and amortization of unconsolidated joint
        ventures, net of minority interests, determined on a consistent basis.
        Given the nature of the Company's business as a real estate owner and
        operator, the Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors as a
        measure of its operational performance. FFO does not represent cash
        generated from operating activities in accordance with generally
        accepted accounting principles and therefore should not be considered an
        alternative for net income as a measure of liquidity. In addition, the
        comparability of the Company's FFO with the FFO reported by other REITs
        may be affected by the differences that exist regarding certain
        accounting policies relating to expenditures for repairs and other
        recurring items.

    (2) Reflects the potential impact if certain units were converted to common
        stock at the beginning of the period. Funds from operations would be
        increased by $1,739 and $1,607 for the three months ended December 31,
        2005 and 2004, respectively, and $6,693 and $6,113 for the year ended
        December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, reflecting the distributions
        associated with these units.

    Projections involve numerous assumptions such as rental income (including
assumptions on percentage rent), interest rates, tenant defaults, occupancy
rates, foreign currency exchange rates (such as the US-Canadian rate), selling
prices of properties held for disposition, expenses (including salaries and
employee costs), insurance costs and numerous other factors. Not all of these
factors are determinable at this time and actual results may vary from the
projected results, and may be above or below the range indicated. The above
range represents management's estimate of results based upon these assumptions
as of the date of this press release.
