As of June 30, 2011, the Company’s portfolio consisted of 152 properties, comprised primarily of Class A office space, one hotel, two residential properties and three retail properties, aggregating approximately 42.1 million square feet, including eight properties under construction totaling 3.4 million square feet. In addition, the Company has structured parking for vehicles containing approximately 14.7 million square feet. The overall percentage of leased space for the 143 properties in service as of June 30, 2011 was 91.9%.

Significant events during the second quarter included:

 

 

During the second quarter of 2011, the Company utilized its “at the market” (ATM) stock offering program to issue an aggregate of 533,778 shares of its common stock for gross proceeds of approximately $50.0 million and net proceeds of approximately $49.3 million. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the sales for general business purposes, which may include investment opportunities and debt reduction. The Company’s ATM stock offering program provided the Company with the ability to sell from time to time up to an aggregate of $400.0 million of its common stock through sales agents over a three-year period. No amount remains available for issuance under this ATM program.

On June 2, 2011, the Company established a new ATM stock offering program through which it may sell from time to time up to an aggregate of $600.0 million of its common stock through sales agents over a three-year period. No shares of common stock have yet been issued under this new ATM program.

 

 

On May 1, 2011, the Company placed in-service approximately 16% of its 510 Madison Avenue development project located in New York City. 510 Madison Avenue is an approximately 347,000 net rentable square foot Class A office property. The property is currently 39% leased.

 

 

On May 11, 2011, the Company refinanced at maturity its mortgage loan collateralized by 601 Lexington Avenue in New York City totaling approximately $453.3 million utilizing the proceeds of a draw under its Unsecured Line of Credit, which borrowing was secured by a mortgage on the property. The mortgage loan bore interest at a fixed rate of 7.19% per annum. The Company expects to enter into a long-term financing during the third quarter of 2011 totaling approximately $725.0 million at a per annum interest rate of approximately 4.75%.

On May 11, 2011, the Company partially placed in-service the Residences on The Avenue, the residential component of its 2221 I Street, NW development project located in Washington, DC. The residential component is comprised of 335 units and retail space aggregating approximately 325,000 square feet. On July 13, 2011, the residential component was completed and placed in-service. The residential units are currently 54% leased.

 

 

On May 23, 2011, the Company entered into a ground lease to lease 75 Ames Street, a vacant land parcel in Cambridge, Massachusetts located on the same site as the Company’s Cambridge Center West Garage property and adjacent to the Company’s Seven Cambridge Center property, to a third party. In addition, the Company entered into a development agreement to serve as project manager for a 250,000 square foot research laboratory building to be developed on the site at the ground lessee’s expense and will also serve as property manager. The terms of the ground lease require the Company to form a condominium for the site upon completion of the development (which is currently expected to be in the third quarter of 2014), at which time each party will subject their respective interests in the buildings and land to the condominium and will in turn be conveyed a condominium unit comprised of their respective building. Gross proceeds are expected to be $56.8 million in an all cash transaction, including $11.4 million in development fees for the Company’s services. As of June 30, 2011, the Company has received approximately $47.4 million and anticipates receiving another $9.4 million in development fees through the third quarter of 2014. The cash received under the ground lease will initially be recognized as unearned revenue and recognized over the 99-year term of the ground lease.

 

 

On May 24, 2011, the Company signed a lease with the law firm of Morrison & Foerster LLP for approximately 184,000 square feet at 250 West 55th Street, the Company’s planned approximately 989,000 square foot office building in midtown Manhattan. Construction of the project is scheduled to resume as early as the fall of 2011, and the law firm expects to move into the completed building in the spring of 2014. The Company’s incremental cost to complete the project, excluding capitalized interest, is expected to be approximately $400.0 million. Including the Company’s investment to date and capitalized interest, the total project cost upon building completion is expected to be approximately $1.05 billion. As a result of the resumption of the development, the Company has begun interest capitalization on its existing investment in the project of approximately $480.0 million and will capitalize the remaining project costs as incurred.

 

 

On June 3, 2011, a joint venture in which the Company has a 50% interest amended its joint venture agreement to add a new development project to its Annapolis Junction property located in Annapolis, Maryland. The outside joint venture partner contributed the improved parcel of land and the Company contributed cash for its 50% interest. The development project is an approximately 120,000 net rentable square foot Class A office project which is expected to be completed during the first quarter of 2012.

 

 

On June 6, 2011, the Company terminated its agreement dated April 21, 2011 to sell its Carnegie Center portfolio located in Princeton, New Jersey for approximately $468.0 million. Carnegie Center is a sixteen building Class A office park set on 560 acres of professionally landscaped grounds and totaling more than 2.0 million net rentable square feet. Under the terms of the agreement, either party had the right to terminate the agreement at any time without any cost or payment to the other party.

 

 

On June 24, 2011, the Company’s Operating Partnership amended and restated the revolving credit agreement governing the Company’s Unsecured Line of Credit, which (1) reduced the total commitment from $1.0 billion to $750.0 million, (2) extended the maturity date from August 3, 2011 to June 24,

2014, with a provision for a one-year extension at the Operating Partnership’s option, subject to certain conditions and the payment of an extension fee equal to 0.20% of the total commitment then in effect, and (3) increased the per annum variable interest rates available, which resulted in an increase of the per annum variable interest rate on outstanding balances from Eurodollar plus 0.475% per annum to Eurodollar plus 1.225% per annum. Under the amended Unsecured Line of Credit, the Operating Partnership may increase the total commitment to $1.0 billion, subject to syndication of the increase. In addition, a facility fee currently equal to an aggregate of 0.225% per annum of the total commitment is payable in equal quarterly installments. The interest rate and facility fee are subject to adjustment in the event of a change in the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt ratings. The amended Unsecured Line of Credit also contains a competitive bid option that allows banks that are part of the lender consortium to bid to make loan advances to the Operating Partnership at a reduced interest rate.

 

 

On June 28, 2011, the Company’s Value-Added Fund modified the mortgage loan collateralized by its Mountain View Research Park property located in Mountain View, California. The mortgage totaling approximately $112.3 million bore interest at a variable rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.75% per annum and had matured on May 31, 2011. The new mortgage loan totaling $92.0 million bears interest at a variable rate equal to LIBOR plus 2.50% per annum and matures on May 31, 2014. In conjunction with the mortgage loan modification, the Company’s Operating Partnership agreed to lend up to $12.0 million to the Company’s Value-Added Fund, of which approximately $6.4 million has been advanced to date. The loan from the Operating Partnership bears interest at a fixed rate of 10.0% per annum and matures on May 31, 2014.

 

 

On June 29, 2011, the Company’s Value-Added Fund extended the maturity date to November 15, 2011 of the mortgage loan collateralized by its Mountain View Technology Park property located in Mountain View, California totaling approximately $24.7 million. The mortgage loan bears interest at a variable rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.50% per annum.

Transactions completed subsequent to June 30, 2011:

 

 

On July 1, 2011, the Company placed in-service The Lofts at Atlantic Wharf, the residential component of its Atlantic Wharf development project located in Boston, Massachusetts. The residential component is comprised of 86 units and retail space aggregating approximately 88,000 square feet. The residential units are currently 23% leased.

 

 

On July 1, 2011, the Company entered into lease amendments with the existing tenant at its three-building complex in Reston, Virginia, which will be redeveloped as the headquarters for the Defense Intelligence Agency. Under the agreement, the tenant will terminate early its leases for approximately 523,000 square feet at the complex and be responsible for certain payments to the Company aggregating approximately $14.8 million, of which approximately $13.0 million will be recognized in the third and fourth quarters of 2011 with the remaining $1.8 million to be recognized in 2012.

 

 

On July 14, 2011, the Company entered into a 15-year lease with Biogen Idec, for 100% of a build-to-suit development project with approximately 190,000 net rentable square feet of Class A office space located on land owned by the Company at 17 Cambridge Center in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The Company expects that the project will be complete and available for occupancy during the third quarter of 2013.

EPS and FFO per Share Guidance:

The Company’s guidance for the third quarter and full year 2011 for EPS (diluted) and FFO per share (diluted) is set forth and reconciled below. Except as described below, the estimates reflect management’s view of current and future market conditions, including assumptions with respect to rental rates, occupancy levels and the earnings impact of the events referenced in this release and otherwise referenced during the conference call referred to below. In particular, the estimates for the full year 2011 include $0.09 per share of continued contribution to earnings resulting from the termination of the agreement to sell Carnegie Center on June 6, 2011, $0.10 per share resulting from the resumption of capitalized interest and other expenses for our development at 250 West 55th Street, and $0.08 per share related to certain payments due from a tenant in Reston, Virginia in connection with the early termination of its leases. The estimates do not include possible future gains or losses or the impact on operating results from other possible future property acquisitions or dispositions, other possible capital markets activity or possible future impairment charges. EPS estimates may be subject to fluctuations as a result of several factors, including changes in the recognition of depreciation and amortization expense and any gains or losses associated with disposition activity. The Company is not able to assess at this time the potential impact of these factors on projected EPS. By definition, FFO does not include real estate-related depreciation and amortization or gains or losses associated with disposition activities. There can be no assurance that the Company’s actual results will not differ materially from the estimates set forth below.

(1) Pursuant to the revised definition of Funds from Operations adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), we calculate Funds from Operations, or “FFO,” by adjusting net income (loss) attributable to Boston Properties, Inc. (computed in accordance with GAAP, including non-recurring items) for gains (or losses) from sales of properties, real estate related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustment for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure. The use of FFO, combined with the required primary GAAP presentations, has been fundamentally beneficial in improving the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and making comparisons of REIT operating results more meaningful. Management generally considers FFO to be a useful measure for reviewing our comparative operating and financial performance because, by excluding gains and losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets and excluding real estate asset depreciation and amortization (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates), FFO can help one compare the operating performance of a company’s real estate between periods or as compared to different companies.

Our computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs or real estate companies that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently.

FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income attributable to Boston Properties, Inc. (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of our performance. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP, and is not a measure of liquidity or an indicator of our ability to make cash distributions. We believe that to further understand our performance, FFO should be compared with our reported net income attributable to Boston Properties, Inc. and considered in addition to cash flows in accordance with GAAP, as presented in our consolidated financial statements.

 

(2) Real estate depreciation and amortization consists of depreciation and amortization from the Consolidated Statements of Operations of $111,080, $81,400, $220,508 and $164,475, our share of unconsolidated joint venture real estate depreciation and amortization of $26,680, $30,124, $53,745 and $61,137, less corporate-related depreciation and amortization of $265, $469, $654 and $939 for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
