Public Storage Reports Results for the Second Quarter Ended June 30, 2012
 
GLENDALE, California – Public Storage (NYSE:PSA) announced today operating results for the second quarter ended
 
June 30, 2012.
 
Operating Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2012
 
For the three months ended June 30, 2012, net income allocable to our common shareholders was $132.3 million compared to $131.5 million for the same period in 2011.  Diluted earnings per common share was flat at $0.77 for each period, as improved property operations and reduced income allocations to our preferred shareholders were offset by a $34.2 million reduction in income caused by foreign currency exchange gains and losses incurred in translating the value of our Euro-denominated loan receivable from Shurgard Europe into a U.S. Dollar equivalent.
 
Revenues for the Same Store Facilities (see table below) increased 5.1% or $19.2 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011, primarily due to higher realized annual rent per occupied square foot.  Cost of operations for the Same Store Facilities declined by 1.4% or $1.7 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011.  Net operating income for our Same Store Facilities increased 8.3% or $20.9 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011.  Net operating income for our non-Same Store facilities increased $4.9 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011.
 
Operating Results for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2012
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2012, net income allocable to our common shareholders was $257.7 million or $1.50 per diluted common share, compared to $279.6 million or $1.64 per diluted common share for the same period in 2011, representing a decrease of $21.9 million or $0.14 per diluted common share.  This decrease is due to (i) a $53.2 million reduction in income caused by foreign currency exchange gains and losses incurred in translating the value of our Euro-denominated loan receivable from Shurgard Europe into a U.S. Dollar equivalent, (ii) a $31.0 million reduction in income allocated to common shareholders, in connection with applying EITF D-42 to preferred equity redemptions, offset partially by (iii) improved property operations and (iv) reduced income allocations to our preferred shareholders based upon distributions paid.
 
Revenues for the Same Store Facilities (see table below) increased 4.9% or $36.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011, primarily due to higher realized annual rent per occupied square foot.  Cost of operations for the Same Store Facilities increased by 0.3% or $0.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011.  Net operating income for our Same Store Facilities increased 7.3% or $35.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011.  Net operating income for our non-Same Store facilities increased $8.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011.
 
Funds from Operations
 
For the three months ended June 30, 2012, funds from operations (“FFO”) was $1.38 per diluted common share as compared to $1.39 for the same period in 2011, representing a decrease of $0.01.
 
For the three months ended June 30, 2012, FFO was impacted by a foreign currency exchange loss of $23.7 million (compared to a $10.5 million gain for the same period in 2011) and a $16.8 million charge in applying EITF D-42 due to redemptions of preferred securities (compared to a $15.9 million charge for the same period in 2011).
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2012, FFO was $2.73 per diluted common share as compared to $2.88 for the same period in 2011, representing a decrease of $0.15.

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, FFO was impacted by a foreign currency exchange loss of $11.5 million (compared to a $41.7 million gain for the same period in 2011) and a $43.9 million charge in applying EITF D-42 due to redemptions of preferred securities (compared to a $12.9 million charge for the same period in 2011).
 
 
Our FFO per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 was also reduced $0.01 in each period as a result of costs associated with the acquisition of real estate facilities.

FFO is a term defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts.  It is generally defined as net income before depreciation with respect to real estate assets and gains and losses on real estate assets.  FFO is presented because management and many analysts consider FFO to be one measure of the performance of real estate companies.  In addition, we believe that FFO is helpful to investors as an additional measure of the performance of a real estate investment trust (“REIT”), because net income includes the impact of depreciation, which assumes that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time, while we believe that the value of real estate fluctuates due to market conditions and in response to inflation.  FFO computations do not consider scheduled principal payments on debt, capital improvements, distributions and other obligations of the Company.  FFO is not a substitute for our cash flow or net income as a measure of our liquidity or operating performance or our ability to pay dividends.  Other REITs may not compute FFO in the same manner; accordingly, FFO may not be comparable among REITs. See the attached reconciliation of net income to FFO.

(a)  
Revenues and cost of operations do not include ancillary revenues and expenses generated at the facilities with respect to tenant reinsurance and retail sales.
 
(b)  
Other direct property costs include administrative expenses that are solely attributable to the self-storage facilities, such as property insurance, office expenses incurred at the property and by supervisory personnel, telephone and data communication lines at the properties, business license costs and bank charges related to handling the properties’ cash deposits.
 
(c)  
Supervisory payroll expense represents compensation paid to the management personnel who directly and indirectly supervise the on-site property managers.
 
(d)  
Allocated overhead represents administrative expenses for shared general corporate functions, which are allocated to self-storage property operations to the extent their efforts are devoted to self-storage operations. Such functions include data processing, human resources, operational accounting and finance, information technology, marketing and costs of senior executives (other than the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, whose compensation is allocated to general and administrative expense).
 
(e)  
Net operating income or “NOI” is a non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) financial measure that excludes the impact of depreciation expense.  Although depreciation is an operating expense, we believe that NOI is a meaningful measure of operating performance, because we utilize NOI in making decisions with respect to capital allocations, in determining current property values, segment performance and comparing period-to-period and market-to-market property operating results.  NOI is not a substitute for net operating income after depreciation in evaluating our operating results.  See attached reconciliation of Same Store NOI to our net income.
 
(f)  
Square foot occupancies represent weighted average occupancy levels over the entire period.
 
 
 
3

 
 
(g)  
Realized annual rent per occupied square foot is computed by annualizing the result of dividing rental income by the weighted average occupied square footage for the period.  Realized annual rent per occupied square foot takes into consideration promotional discounts, which reduce rental income from the contractual amounts due.
 
(h)  
Late charges and administrative fees are excluded from the computation of realized annual rent per occupied square foot and REVPAF because exclusion of these amounts provides a better measure of our ongoing level of revenue.
 
(i)  
Annualized rental income per available square foot (“REVPAF”) represents annualized rental income which excludes late charges and administrative fees divided by total available net rentable square feet.  REVPAF takes into consideration promotional discounts that reduce rental income from the contractual amounts due.
 
(j)  
In place annual rent per occupied square foot represents annualized contractual rents per occupied square foot without reductions for promotional discounts and excludes late charges and administrative fees.

Shurgard Europe Same Store Selected Operating Data
 
The Shurgard Europe Same Store Pool represents the 163 facilities (8.7 million net rentable square feet) that have been wholly-owned and operated by Shurgard Europe on a stabilized basis since January 1, 2010 and therefore provide meaningful comparisons for 2011 and 2012.  We account for our investment in Shurgard Europe under the equity method of accounting; accordingly, our pro-rata share of the operating results for these facilities is included in “equity in earnings of unconsolidated real estate entities” on our income statement.

(a)  
In order to isolate changes in the underlying operations from the impact of exchange rates, the amounts in this table are presented on a constant exchange rate basis.  The amounts for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 have been restated using the actual exchange rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.
 
(b)  
Square foot occupancies represent weighted average occupancy levels over the entire period.
 
(c)  
Realized annual rent per occupied square foot is computed by annualizing the result of dividing rental income by the weighted average occupied square footage for the period.  Realized annual rent per occupied square foot takes into consideration promotional discounts, which reduce rental income from the contractual amounts due.
 
(d)  
Late charges and administrative fees are excluded from the computation of realized annual rent per occupied square foot and REVPAF because exclusion of these amounts provides a better measure of our ongoing level of revenue.
 
(e)  
REVPAF represents annualized rental income which excludes late charges and administrative fees divided by total available net rentable square feet.  REVPAF takes into consideration promotional discounts that reduce rental income from the contractual amounts due.
 
(f)  
In place annual rent per occupied square foot represents annualized contractual rents per occupied square foot without reductions for promotional discounts and excludes late charges and administrative fees.

(a)  
Funds available for distribution (“FAD”) is presented because many analysts consider it to be a measure of the performance and liquidity of real estate companies and because we believe that FAD is helpful to investors as an additional measure of the performance of a REIT.  FAD is not a substitute for our cash flow or net income as a measure of our liquidity, operating performance, or our ability to pay dividends.  FAD does not take into consideration required principal payments on debt.  Other REITs may not compute FAD in the same manner; accordingly, FAD may not be comparable among REITs.
 
(b)  
The distribution payout ratio is computed by dividing the distribution paid by FAD.

We consolidate the operating results of 112 additional self-storage facilities that are not Same Store Facilities. Since January 1, 2012, we have acquired ten self-storage facilities from third parties, and on June 1, 2012, we commenced consolidating three self-storage facilities that we previously accounted for on the equity method.  Included in the table above for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, are revenues totaling $1,473,000 and $1,611,000, respectively, and cost of operations totaling $686,000 and $735,000, respectively, for these 13 facilities.
