Financial Results

Net income available to common shareholders for the third quarter of 2012 was $27.1 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, compared to $40.1 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2011. Year to date, net income available to common shareholders was $113.4 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, compared to $78.1 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, through September 30, 2011.

Funds from operations (FFO), a widely accepted supplemental measure of REIT performance, was $119 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2012 compared to $134.3 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2011. The decrease in FFO in the third quarter of 2012 was the result of $8.3 million in transactional expenses incurred mainly from a $6.2 million non-cash redemption charge in connection with the company’s $175 million 6.65 percent Class F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock that was redeemed in August 2012. This compares to $10.6 million of transactional income earned in the third quarter of 2011 primarily from the monetization of several non-retail investments.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, FFO was $383.2 million, or $0.94 per diluted share, compared to $382.3 million, or $0.94 per diluted share, for the same period last year.

FFO as adjusted, which excludes the effects of non-operating impairments and transactional income and expenses, was $127.3 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2012 compared to $123.7 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2011.

FFO as adjusted, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $379.4 million, or $0.93 per diluted share, compared to $366.3 million, or $0.90 per diluted share, for the same period in 2011.

A reconciliation of net income to FFO and FFO as adjusted are provided in the tables accompanying this press release.
