One Liberty Properties Reports Third Quarter 2015 Results
Grows Revenues 5.9% Over Prior Year; Produces 6.3% Increase in Adjusted FFO to $0.51 per Diluted Share
(firmenpresse) - GREAT NECK, NY -- (Marketwired) -- 11/09/15 -- One Liberty Properties, Inc. (NYSE: OLP), a real estate investment trust focused on net leased properties, today announced operating results for the quarter ended September 30, 2015.
Patrick J. Callan, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer of One Liberty commented: "Our third quarter results reflect the ongoing strong performance of our diverse portfolio of properties. Our occupancy of 98.2% is reflective of the long-term stable cash flow assets that we own in our portfolio. Our strategy of proactively managing our existing portfolio, while continuing to pursue select accretive growth opportunities, is reflected in our improved year-over-year results. We will remain disciplined as we seek to identify and add properties in markets with positive long-term real estate fundamentals that will drive additional value for stockholders."
Total revenues grew 5.9% to $16.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015, from $15.2 million for the corresponding period in the prior year, due primarily to properties acquired since October 2014. Total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2014 includes $1.1 million of rental income from properties disposed of in late 2014 and early 2015.
Total operating expenses for the third quarter of 2015 increased 2.4% to $8.4 million, from $8.2 million for the third quarter in the prior year. The change is due primarily to increased real estate expenses and depreciation and amortization with respect to properties acquired since October 2014, and additional general and administrative costs. The three months ended September 30, 2014 includes an impairment loss of $1.1 million.
Net income attributable to One Liberty in the third quarter of 2015 was $3.8 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, compared to $2.6 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2014. The three months ended September 30, 2014 includes a $1.1 million, or $0.07 per share, impairment loss.
Funds from Operations, or FFO, was $8.4 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2015, compared to $7.5 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, in the corresponding period of 2014. Adjusted Funds from Operations, or AFFO, was $8.5 million, or $0.51 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2015, compared to $7.8 million, or $0.48 per diluted share in the corresponding prior year period. FFO and AFFO per share were impacted by the increase in the weighted average number of shares outstanding due to share issuances under One Liberty's equity incentive, at-the-market offering and dividend reinvestment programs. A reconciliation of GAAP amounts to non-GAAP amounts is presented with the financial information included in this release.
At September 30, 2015, One Liberty had $13.9 million of cash and cash equivalents, total assets of $655.4 million, total debt of $361.4 million and total stockholders' equity of $255.4 million.
At November 2, 2015, One Liberty's available liquidity was approximately $58.3 million, including approximately $6.5 million of cash and cash equivalents (net of the credit facility's required $3 million deposit maintenance balance) and $51.8 million available under its credit facility.
One Liberty computes FFO in accordance with the "White Paper on Funds From Operations" issued by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") and NAREIT's related guidance. FFO is defined in the White Paper as net income (computed in accordance with generally accepting accounting principles), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, plus impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate, after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships, joint ventures and non-controlling interests. Since the NAREIT White Paper only provides guidelines for computing FFO, the computation of FFO may vary from one REIT to another. One Liberty computes AFFO by deducting from FFO its straight-line rent accruals, amortization of lease intangibles and lease termination fee income and adding back amortization of restricted stock compensation, amortization of costs in connection with its financing activities (including its share of its unconsolidated joint ventures) and prepayment costs associated with mortgage debt.
One Liberty believes that FFO and AFFO are useful and standard supplemental measures of the operating performance for equity REITs and are used frequently by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in evaluating equity REITs, many of which present FFO and AFFO when reporting their operating results. FFO and AFFO are intended to exclude GAAP historical cost depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, which assumes that the value of real estate assets diminish predictability over time. In fact, real estate values have historically risen and fallen with market conditions. As a result, management believes that FFO and AFFO provide a performance measure that when compared year over year, should reflect the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, interest costs and other matters without the inclusion of depreciation and amortization, providing a perspective that may not be necessarily apparent from net income. Management also considers FFO and AFFO to be useful in evaluating potential property acquisitions.
FFO and AFFO do not represent net income or cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP. FFO and AFFO should not be considered to be an alternative to net income as a reliable measure of our operating performance; nor should FFO and AFFO be considered an alternative to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities (as defined by GAAP) as measures of liquidity.
FFO and AFFO do not measure whether cash flow is sufficient to fund all of the Company's cash needs, including principal amortization, capital improvements and distributions to stockholders. FFO and AFFO do not represent cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as defined by GAAP.
Management recognizes that there are limitations in the use of FFO and AFFO. In evaluating the Company's performance, management is careful to examine GAAP measures such as net income and cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities. Management also examines the reconciliation of GAAP net income to FFO and AFFO.
