“The third quarter was a record leasing quarter for First Potomac, signing over 1.1 million square feet of leases,” commented Douglas J. Donatelli, Chairman and CEO of First Potomac Realty Trust. “Leasing has been strong in our recently acquired, value-add office assets as well as our business park and industrial properties. Businesses in the greater Washington region are seeking efficient buildings in attractive, amenity-rich and transportation-friendly locations. Our high-quality portfolio is presenting tenants in our market with excellent options. We remain excited by the opportunity to drive additional earnings growth as we continue to lease up our properties and realize the significant embedded value in our portfolio.”

Core FFO and FFO increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared with the same periods in 2010 due to an increase in the Company’s net operating income. The Company’s net loss increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared with the same periods in 2010 due to an increase in acquisition costs and impairment charges, which were partially offset by a gain related to the retirement of a contingent consideration obligation. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company acquired six properties compared with the acquisition of two properties for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. During the third quarter of 2011, the Company incurred a $3.1 million impairment charge on its Airpark Place property that reflects management’s shorter anticipated holding period for the property. The additional impairment charges incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 relate to properties that were subsequently disposed of by the Company.
The Company’s consolidated portfolio was 84.7% leased and 81.2% occupied at September 30, 2011 compared with 83.0% leased and 80.4% occupied at June 30, 2011. Excluding the Company’s fourth quarter 2010 acquisitions of Atlantic Corporate Park, which was vacant at acquisition, and Redland Corporate Center II, which was 99% vacant at acquisition, the Company’s consolidated portfolio was 86.1% leased and 83.5% occupied at September 30, 2011. A list of the Company’s properties, as well as additional information regarding the Company’s results of operations can be found in the Company’s Third Quarter 2011 Supplemental Financial Report, which is posted on the Company’s website, www.first-potomac.com.

Property Operations
During the third quarter, the Company executed 1,134,000 square feet of leases, which consisted of 443,000 square feet of new leases and 691,000 square feet of renewal leases. Significant new leases included 140,000 square feet at 7458 Candlewood Road, which is located in the Company’s Maryland region, 106,000 square feet at Crossways Commerce Center and 52,000 square feet at Diamond Hill Distribution Center, which are both located in the Company’s Southern Virginia region. The average rental rate on comparable new leases declined 15.1% on a cash basis and 10.4% on an accrual basis primarily as a result of lower rents associated with backfilling larger blocks of warehouse space. Rent from these new leases is expected to commence by the end of the first quarter of 2012. The 691,000 square feet of renewal leases in the quarter reflect an 88% retention rate. Renewal leases during the quarter included 204,000 square feet at 840 First Street, NE, 100,000 square feet at Diamond Hill Distribution Center, 58,000 square feet at 1400 Cavalier Boulevard and 40,000 square feet at River’s Bend Center.
Same-property net operating income (“Same-Property NOI”) increased 0.1% on a cash basis and decreased 1.4% on an accrual basis for the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared with the same period in 2010. On an accrual basis, for the three months ended September 30, 2011 Same-Property NOI increased 4.2% for the Company’s Maryland region and 30.8% for its Washington, D.C. region, which only reflected the operating results of one property. On an accrual basis, for the three months ended September 30, 2011 Same-Property NOI slightly decreased for the Company’s Northern Virginia region and decreased 11.0% for its Southern Virginia region, which was due to an increase in vacancy. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company’s Same-Property NOI increased 0.2% on an accrual basis and 2.1% on a cash basis due to a decline in real estate taxes and property operating expenses.
Acquisition
On July 19, 2011, the Company acquired Greenbrier Towers I & II in Chesapeake, Virginia for $16.7 million. The property consists of two office buildings totaling 172,000 square feet and is 86% leased to over 40 tenants. The acquisition was funded with proceeds from the sale of Aquia Commerce Center I & II and a draw on the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility.
Development Joint Ventures
On August 4, 2011, the Company formed a joint venture with an affiliate of Perseus Realty, LLC to acquire the Greyhound Bus Terminal site at 1005 First Street, NE in Washington, D.C. for $46.8 million, of which, $38.4 million was paid at closing and the remaining $8.4 million will be paid in August 2013. The Company funded its share of the purchase price through a draw on its unsecured revolving credit facility. The site is currently occupied by the Greyhound Bus Terminal, which leased back the site under a ten-year lease agreement with a termination option after the second year. The Company estimates a 6.5% return on the lease-back. Greyhound has announced that it intends to relocate its operations to nearby Union Station, at which point the joint venture anticipates developing the 1.6 acre site, which can accommodate up to approximately 712,000 square feet of office space. The Company anticipates owning 97% of the joint venture when it is fully capitalized.
During the first quarter of 2011, the Company entered into a joint venture with an affiliate of the Akridge Company. On October 12, 2011, the joint venture acquired a property located in Washington, D.C. at 1200 17th Street, NW for $39.6 million. The property currently consists of a land parcel that contains an 85,000 square foot office building. The joint venture intends to demolish the existing building and develop a new Class A 170,000 square foot office building. Construction is currently expected to commence in 2012 and is expected to be completed in late 2014. The Company funded its share of the purchase price through a draw on its unsecured revolving credit facility and available cash. The Company anticipates owning a 95% interest in the joint venture when it is fully capitalized.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Funds from Operations — Funds from operations (“FFO”) represents net income (computed in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”)), plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures and gains or losses on the sale of property. The Company also excludes, from its FFO calculation, any depreciation and amortization related to third parties from its consolidated joint venture. The Company considers FFO a useful measure of performance for an equity REIT because it facilitates an understanding of the operating performance of its properties without giving effect to real estate depreciation and amortization, which assume that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, the Company believes that FFO provides a meaningful indication of its performance. The Company also considers FFO an appropriate performance measure given its wide use by investors and analysts. The Company computes FFO in accordance with standards established by the Board of Governors of NAREIT in its March 1995 White Paper (as amended in November 1999 and April 2002), which may differ from the methodology for calculating FFO utilized by other equity real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. Further, FFO does not represent amounts available for management’s discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments and uncertainties, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund the Company’s cash needs, including its ability to make distributions. The Company presents FFO per diluted share calculations that are based on the outstanding dilutive common shares plus the outstanding Operating Partnership units for the periods presented.
The Company’s presentation of FFO in accordance with the NAREIT white paper, or as adjusted by the Company, should not be considered as an alternative to net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of the Company’s financial performance or to cash flow from operating activities (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of its liquidity. The Company’s FFO calculations are reconciled to net income in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations included in this release.
Core FFO — The computation of FFO in accordance with NAREIT’s definition includes certain items that are not indicative of the results provided by the Company’s operating portfolio and affect the comparability of the Company’s period-over-period performance. These items include, but are not limited to, gains and losses on the retirement of debt, contingent consideration charges, acquisition costs and impairments to real estate assets. The Company provides a reconciliation of FFO to Core FFO.
NOI — The Company defines net operating income (“NOI”) as operating revenues (rental income, tenant reimbursements and other income) less property and related expenses (property expenses, real estate taxes and insurance). Management believes that NOI is a useful measure of the Company’s property operating performance as it provides a performance measure of the revenues and expenses directly associated with owning, developing, redeveloping and operating industrial properties and business parks, and provides a prospective not immediately apparent from net income or FFO. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly, the Company’s NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. The Company’s NOI calculations are reconciled to total revenues and total operating expenses at the end of this release.

 

Page 6 of 11


 

Same-Property NOI — Same Property Net Operating Income (“Same Property NOI”), defined as operating revenues (rental, tenant reimbursements and other revenues) less operating expenses (property operating expenses, real estate taxes and insurance) from the properties owned by the Company for the entirety of the periods presented, is a primary performance measure the Company uses to assess the results of operations at its properties. As an indication of the Company’s operating performance, Same Property NOI should not be considered an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of the Company’s Same Property NOI to net income from its consolidated statements of operations is presented below. The Same Property NOI results exclude corporate-level expenses, as well as certain transactions, such as the collection of termination fees, as these items vary significantly period-over-period thus impacting trends and comparability. Also, the Company eliminates depreciation and amortization expense, which are property level expenses, in computing Same Property NOI as these are non-cash expenses that are based on historical cost accounting assumptions and do not offer the investor significant insight into the operations of the property. This presentation allows management and investors to distinguish whether growth or declines in net operating income are a result of increases or decreases in property operations or the acquisition of additional properties. While this presentation provides useful information to management and investors, the results below should be read in conjunction with the results from the consolidated statements of operations to provide a complete depiction of total Company performance.
Forward Looking Statements
The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are subject to various risks and uncertainties.
