CBL & ASSOCIATES PROPERTIES REPORTS
FIRST QUARTER 2010 RESULTS

 
     Reported FFO per diluted share of $0.49 for the first quarter 2010.
     Same-store sales for mall tenants 10,000 square feet or less for stabilized malls for the quarter ended March 31, 2010, increased 4.7%.
     Stabilized mall occupancy increased 60 basis points to 89.7% as of March 31, 2010, compared with the prior year period.
 
        CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (April 28, 2010) – CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. (NYSE:CBL) announced results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2010.  A description of each non-GAAP financial measure and the related reconciliation to the comparable GAAP measure is located at the end of this news release.  In accordance with accounting guidance effective in the fourth quarter 2009 related to the treatment of the stock component of our dividend paid on April 15, 2009, all previously reported share and per share amounts that were retroactively adjusted to reflect the common stock and common units, as applicable, issued as part of that dividend have been revised.  The new guidance requires that the stock component be treated as a stock issuance.  Thus, the Company has reflected the stock distribution in its share and per share amounts beginning April 15, 2009.

Funds from Operations (“FFO”) allocable to common shareholders for the first quarter ended March 31, 2010, was $67,979,000 or $0.49 per diluted share, compared with $50,195,000, or $0.76 per diluted share for the first quarter ended March 31, 2009.  FFO per share for the first quarter 2010 reflects dilution of $0.31 per fully diluted share as a result of the 66.63 million shares issued in the June 2009 equity offering and the 6.1 million common shares and units issued in conjunction with the stock component of the April 15, 2009 dividend.

FFO of the operating partnership for the first quarter ended March 31, 2010, increased 5.8% to $93,571,000, compared with $88,450,000 for the first quarter ended March 31, 2009.  FFO in the current quarter benefited from a reduction in operating expenses.  FFO in the prior year period was negatively impacted by a $7,706,000 non-cash impairment charge related to the Company’s investment in a Chinese real estate and development company.
 
Net income available to common shareholders for the first quarter ended March 31, 2010, was $10,928,000, or $0.08 per diluted share, compared with net income of $1,712,000, or $0.03 per diluted share for the prior-year period.  Net income available to common shareholders in the current quarter benefited from a reduction in operating expenses and depreciation and amortization expense.  Net income available to common shareholders in the prior year period was impacted by the $4,373,000 (adjusted for non-controlling interest) non-cash impairment charge related to the Company’s investment in a Chinese real estate and development company.

CBL’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Stephen D. Lebovitz, commented, “We continued to build on our core leasing and operational strengths during the first quarter as we position CBL for an improving economic environment. The strategic decisions to stabilize our occupancy and diversify our tenant base have already generated positive results with portfolio and mall occupancy levels increasing from the prior-year period.  Other highlights in the first quarter included more than 1.1 million square feet of completed lease signings, same-store sales growth of 4.7% and the opening of The Pavilion at Port Orange, our 415,000-square-foot open-air development, at 92% leased or committed.  These successes continue to underscore the strength of our company and validate our strategy.

“We are also accessing the capital markets on favorable terms with the completion of a $72 million financing secured by St. Clair Square and commitments or term sheets for all of our remaining 2010 property-level mortgage maturities.  Additionally, we were pleased to complete our $128 million preferred stock offering.  As a result of this offering and the other deleveraging steps we have taken, we have reduced our debt levels by over $600 million from the prior year. While there are still challenges to be faced, we are confident that CBL is poised to benefit from an improving economy and emerging growth opportunities.”

DEVELOPMENT
On March 10, 2010, CBL celebrated the official Grand Opening for the 415,000-square-foot phase one of The Pavilion at Port Orange, an open-air development in Port Orange, FL.  The area’s newest and most unique shopping destination opened more than 92% leased or committed with anchors including Hollywood Theaters, Belk, HomeGoods, Marshalls, Michaels, PETCO and ULTA.

CAPITAL MARKETS
During the first quarter CBL completed an underwritten public offering of 6,300,000 depositary shares, each representing 1/10th of a share of its 7.375% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, having a liquidation preference of $25.00 per depositary share. The depositary shares were priced at $20.30 per share including accrued dividends equating to a yield of 9.08%. The Company used the net offering proceeds of $123.4 million to reduce outstanding borrowings under its credit facilities and for general corporate purposes.

Including the shares issued in this offering the Company now has 13,300,000 depositary shares outstanding, each representing 1/10th of a share of its 7.375% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock. The securities are redeemable at liquidation preference, plus accrued and unpaid dividends, at any time at the option of the Company. These securities have no stated maturity, sinking fund or mandatory redemption and are not convertible into any other securities of the Company.

OUTLOOK AND GUIDANCE
Based on today's outlook, the Company's first quarter results and capital markets activity, the Company is maintaining 2010 FFO guidance of $1.82 - $1.90 per share.  The full year guidance assumes $3.0 million to $5.0 million of outparcel sales and same-center NOI growth in the range of (1.5%) to (3.5%), excluding the impact of lease termination fees from both applicable periods.  The guidance excludes the impact of any future unannounced acquisitions or dispositions.  The Company expects to update its annual guidance after each quarter's results.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Funds From Operations
FFO is a widely used measure of the operating performance of real estate companies that supplements net income determined in accordance with GAAP. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding gains or losses on sales of operating properties, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures and noncontrolling interests. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures and noncontrolling interests are calculated on the same basis. The Company defines FFO allocable to its common shareholders as defined above by NAREIT less dividends on preferred stock. The Company’s method of calculating FFO allocable to its common shareholders may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

The Company believes that FFO provides an additional indicator of the operating performance of its properties without giving effect to real estate depreciation and amortization, which assumes the value of real estate assets declines predictably over time. Since values of well-maintained real estate assets have historically risen with market conditions, the Company believes that FFO enhances investors’ understanding of its operating performance. The use of FFO as an indicator of financial performance is influenced not only by the operations of the Company’s properties and interest rates, but also by its capital structure.

The Company presents both FFO of its operating partnership and FFO allocable to its common shareholders, as it believes that both are useful performance measures.  The Company believes FFO of its operating partnership is a useful performance measure since it conducts substantially all of its business through its operating partnership and, therefore, it reflects the performance of the properties in absolute terms regardless of the ratio of ownership interests of the Company’s common shareholders and the noncontrolling interest in the operating partnership.  The Company believes FFO allocable to its common shareholders is a useful performance measure because it is the performance measure that is most directly comparable to net income available to its common shareholders.

In the reconciliation of net income available to the Company's common shareholders to FFO allocable to its common shareholders, located at the end of this earnings release, the Company makes an adjustment to add back noncontrolling interest in earnings of its operating partnership in order to arrive at FFO of its operating partnership.  The Company then applies a percentage to FFO of its operating partnership to arrive at FFO allocable to its common shareholders. The percentage is computed by taking the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period and dividing it by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares and the weighted average number of operating partnership units outstanding during the period.

FFO does not represent cash flows from operations as defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund all cash flow needs and should not be considered as an alternative to net income for purposes of evaluating the Company’s operating performance or to cash flow as a measure of liquidity.

Same-Center Net Operating Income
NOI is a supplemental measure of the operating performance of the Company's shopping centers.  The Company defines NOI as operating revenues (rental revenues, tenant reimbursements and other income) less property operating expenses (property operating, real estate taxes and maintenance and repairs).

Similar to FFO, the Company computes NOI based on its pro rata share of both consolidated and unconsolidated properties.  The Company's definition of NOI may be different than that used by other companies and, accordingly, the Company's NOI may not be comparable to that of other companies.  A reconciliation of same-center NOI to net income is located at the end of this earnings release.

Since NOI includes only those revenues and expenses related to the operations of its shopping center properties, the Company believes that same-center NOI provides a measure that reflects trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs and the impact of those trends on the Company's results of operations. Additionally, there are instances when tenants terminate their leases prior to the scheduled expiration date and pay the Company one-time, lump-sum termination fees. These one-time lease termination fees may distort same-center NOI trends and may result in same-center NOI that is not indicative of the ongoing operations of the Company's shopping center properties. Therefore, the Company believes that presenting same-center NOI, excluding lease termination fees, is useful to investors.


Pro Rata Share of Debt
The Company presents debt based on its pro rata ownership share (including the Company's pro rata share of unconsolidated affiliates and excluding noncontrolling interests' share of consolidated properties) because it believes this provides investors a clearer understanding of the Company's total debt obligations which affect the Company's liquidity.  A reconciliation of the Company's pro rata share of debt to the amount of debt on the Company's consolidated balance sheet is located at the end of this earnings release.
