WHITESTONE REIT ANNOUNCES OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE FIRST QUARTER 2012
 
Highlights (Year-Over-Year)
Occupancy of Operating Portfolio grew 3% to 87% as of March 31, 2012
Property net operating income of $6.8 million, an increase of 33%
FFO of $3.1 million, an increase of 48%
Net income of $793,000, an increase of 329%
EBITDA of $5.2 million, an increase of 41%

Houston, Texas, May 9, 2012 - Whitestone REIT (NYSE Amex: WSR - “Whitestone” or the “Company”), a fully integrated real estate company that owns, operates and re-develops Community Centered PropertiesTM, which are visibly located in established or developing culturally diverse neighborhoods, announced its financial results for the first quarter of 2012.
 
“Whitestone continues to acquire off market value add Community Center Properties at a discount to replacement cost.  During the past 18 months our new acquisitions have added to our core operating EBITDA, evidenced by the  year-over-year 41% increase in the first quarter of 2012.  A significant part of our growth is driven by our focus on our small space tenants that are entrepreneurial - community based service businesses that meet the needs of people living within a five mile radius of the properties we own," said James C. Mastandrea, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.  "During the quarter, we continued pre-acquisition due diligence activities on many properties that meet our acquisition criteria, drawing from our substantial pipeline of community centered properties. We expect that over the coming quarters we will meaningfully add select properties to our portfolio. We are well positioned, with a strong balance sheet and an unsecured line of credit, to utilize our financial flexibility and be nimble and quick when the right opportunity is uncovered. Our experienced team of Whitestone associates continues to work together integrating our acquisitions with our operations to create additional long-term value for our shareholders.”
 
Highlights: First Quarter 2012 Compared to First Quarter 2011
 

Net income attributable to Whitestone REIT was $793,000, or $0.07 per diluted common share for the first quarter 2012, compared to $185,000 or $0.03 per diluted common share for the same period in 2011.

Funds from Operations ("FFO") for the first quarter 2012 was $3.1 million, or $0.25 per diluted common share and operating partnership unit ("OP unit") , as compared to $2.1 million or $0.29 per diluted common share and OP unit for the first quarter 2011.

Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA") for the first quarter 2012 was $5.2 million as compared to $3.7 million for the first quarter 2011.
 
Property net operating income (“NOI”) increased 33% to $6.8 million for the first quarter 2012 as compared to $5.1 million for the same period in 2011. The increase of $1.7 million is primarily attributable to NOI of new acquisitions.
 
The Company declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.285 per common share and OP unit, which was paid in three equal installments of $0.095 in January, February and March 2012. The distribution rate has remained the same since the distribution paid on July 8, 2010. In February 2012, the Company also declared its second quarter cash distribution of $0.285 per common share and OP unit, which has been paid or will be paid in three equal installments of $0.095 in April, May and June 2012.


 
First Quarter 2012 Leasing Highlights

The Company's Operating Portfolio Occupancy Rate increased to 87% as of March 31, 2012 from 84% as of March 31, 2011.





The Company defines Operating Portfolio Occupancy Rate as physical occupancy in all properties, excluding (i) new acquisitions through the earlier of attainment of 90% occupancy or 18 months of ownership and (ii) properties that are undergoing significant redevelopment or re-tenanting. Total physical property occupancy, which includes properties under redevelopment, undergoing significant retenanting and recent acquisitions, was 85% as of March 31, 2012, an increase of 3% from 82% as of March 31, 2011.

The Company signed 90 new and renewal leases representing 159,000 square feet during the first quarter of 2012, primarily with tenants that required less than 3,000 square feet in multi-cultural neighborhoods, which drives premium rents. A summary of leasing activity is shown below:
 
Increase in total number of tenants by 3% from year end 2011 to 941 from 915;
An increase of 13% in total lease value of new and renewal leases signed: $6.8 million in the first quarter of 2012 versus $6.0 million in the same period of 2011;
An increase of 13% in the number of new and renewal leases signed: 90 in the first quarter of 2012 versus 80 in the same period of 2011; and
Total new and renewal leases signed of 159,000 square feet in the first quarter of 2012, with an average size of 1,769 square feet as compared to 218,000 square feet and and average size of 2,721 in the same period of 2011.
 
Community Centered PropertiesTM Portfolio Statistics

As of March 31, 2012, Whitestone owned 45 Community Centered PropertiesTM with approximately 3.6 million square feet of gross leasable area, including two development land parcels, located in five of the top markets in the United States in terms of population growth: Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, Phoenix and Chicago.
 
The Company's strategic efforts target entrepreneurial tenants that provide services to the surrounding neighborhood at each Community Centered PropertyTM. These tenants tend to occupy smaller spaces (less than 3,000 square feet) and, as of March 31, 2012, provided a 68% premium rental rate compared to Whitestone's larger space tenants. The Company currently services 941 tenants throughout its portfolio.  No single tenant accounted for more than 2.0% of the Company's annualized base rental revenues as of March 31, 2012.

Balance Sheet
 
Whitestone had 19 properties, unencumbered by debt as of March 31, 2012, with an undepreciated cost basis of $115 million. The total undepreciated values of the Company's real estate assets and real estate indebtedness were $295 million and $134 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2012. As of March 31, 2012, 69% of the Company's debt was fixed-rate and the Company's weighted average interest rate for the quarter was 5.2%.
 
On February 27, 2012, Whitestone closed on a new three-year $125 million unsecured revolving credit facility. The new facility replaces the existing $20 million facility with Bank of Montreal. The Company plans to use the new facility for general corporate purposes, primarily for acquisitions and redevelopment of existing properties in its portfolio. BMO Capital Markets served as the Sole Lead Arranger and Sole Book Runner. Bank of Montreal also serves as the Administrative Agent. U. S. Bank National Association served as Syndication Agent, while Capital One, National Association, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association served as Co-Documentation Agents. Also included in the lender group is MidFirst Bank. As of March 31, 2012, $107 million was available under the credit facility.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release contains the supplemental non-GAAP financial measures of FFO, FFO-Core, NOI and EBITDA. Following are definitions and reconciliations of these metrics to their most comparable GAAP metric.
 
FFO: Management believes that FFO is a useful measure of the Company's operating performance. The Company computes FFO as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, which states that FFO should





represent net income (loss) available to common shareholders (computed in accordance with GAAP) plus real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs) and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures and excluding gains or losses on the sale of operating real estate assets and extraordinary items. In October 2011, NAREIT communicated to its members that the exclusion of impairment writedowns of depreciable real estate is consistent with the definition of FFO, and prior periods should be restated to be consistent with this guidance. As the Company has not had any impairments in the past five years, the Company was not required to restate our FFO for prior periods. FFO does not represent cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of the Company's performance or to cash flow from operations as a measure of liquidity or ability to make distributions.

Further, other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating FFO, and accordingly, the Company's FFO may not be comparable to other REITs. The Company presents FFO per diluted share calculations that are based on the outstanding dilutive common shares plus the outstanding OP units for the periods presented. Management considers FFO a useful additional 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 assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, management believes that FFO provides a more meaningful and accurate indication of the Company's performance and useful information for the investment community to compare Whitestone to other REITs since FFO is generally recognized as the industry standard for reporting the operations of REITs.
 
FFO-Core: Management believes that 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, legal and professional fees, gains and losses on insurance claim settlements and acquisition costs. Therefore, in addition to FFO, management uses FFO-Core, which the Company defines to exclude such items. Management believes that these adjustments are appropriate in determining FFO-Core as they are not indicative of the operating performance of the Company's assets. In addition, the Company believes that FFO-Core is a useful supplemental measure for the investing community to use in comparing the Company to other REITs as many REITs provide some form of adjusted or modified FFO.
 
NOI: Management believes that NOI is a useful measure of the Company's property operating performance. The Company defines NOI as operating revenues (rental and other revenues) less property and related expenses (property operation and maintenance and real estate taxes). Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly, the Company's NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. Because NOI excludes general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, involuntary conversion, interest expense, interest income, provision for income taxes and gain or loss on sale or disposition of assets, it provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the revenues and expenses directly associated with owning and operating commercial real estate properties and the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs, providing perspective not immediately apparent from net income. The Company uses NOI to evaluate its operating performance since NOI allows the Company to evaluate the impact that factors, such as occupancy levels, lease structure, lease rates and tenant base, have on the Company's results, margins and returns. In addition, management believes that NOI provides useful information to the investment community about the Company's property and operating performance when compared to other REITs since NOI is generally recognized as a standard measure of property performance in the real estate industry. However, NOI should not be viewed as a measure of the Company's overall financial performance since it does not reflect general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, involuntary conversion, interest expense, interest income, provision for income taxes, gain or loss on sale or disposition of assets, and the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of the Company's properties.
 
EBITDA: Management believes that EBITDA is an appropriate supplemental measure of operating performance to net income attributable to the Company. The Company defines EBITDA as operating revenues (rental and other revenues) less property and related expenses (property operation and maintenance and real estate taxes) and general and administrative expenses. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating EBITDA, and accordingly, the Company's EBITDA may not be comparable to other REITs. Management believes that EBITDA provides useful information to the investment community about the Company's operating performance when compared to other REITs since EBITDA is generally recognized as a standard measure. However, EBITDA should not be viewed as a measure of the Company's overall financial performance since it does not reflect depreciation and amortization, involuntary conversion, interest expense, provision for income taxes, gain or loss on sale or disposition of assets, and the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of the Company's properties.
