ONE LIBERTY PROPERTIES, INC. REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2012 RESULTS

~ Rental Income Increased 9.6% Over the Third Quarter 2011 ~
~ FFO Increased 14.7% Over the Third Quarter 2011 ~
 
GREAT NECK, New York, November 8, 2012 — One Liberty Properties, Inc. (NYSE: OLP), the owner of a geographically diversified portfolio of retail, industrial, office and other properties primarily under long term leases in the United States, today announced operating results for the quarter ended September 30, 2012.
 
Third Quarter Highlights:
 
During the three months ended September 30, 2012, the Company:
 
·  
amended its line of credit, increasing permitted borrowings to $75 million from $55 million, reducing the interest rate floor to 4.75% from 5.5%  and extending the facility’s expiration date by two years to March 31, 2015,
 
·  
refinanced approximately $22.85 million of mortgage debt which matured September 1, 2012, bearing interest at the rate of 6.87% per year and secured by the eleven properties leased to Haverty Furniture Companies, Inc. with new mortgage debt in the aggregate principal amount of $25 million, maturing September 1, 2032 (subject to the lender’s option to call the debt after September 1, 2022) and bearing interest at the rate of 5.125% per year,
 
·  
sold a property located at 119 Madison Avenue, New York City for approximately $18.25 million, generating a net gain of $15 million, and
 
·  
raised approximately $2.3 million pursuant to an at the market offering program through the sale of 120,844 shares.
 
Patrick J. Callan, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer of One Liberty stated, “Our results for the third quarter represent the ongoing progress we are making in improving the quality and sustainability of our funds from operations and demonstrates the benefit of the eleven acquisitions we made in the past 15 months.  While the pace of acquisitions has slowed in recent quarters, we continue to look at a significant volume of potential opportunities.  Even as prices for properties continue to rise, we remain opportunistic in our acquisition activities as we seek accretive additions to the portfolio. With the balance sheet activity we completed in the third quarter, including amending our credit facility, refinancing an approximately $23 million mortgage loan and closing a property sale for a net gain of $15 million, we are well positioned to take advantage of opportunities as they arise.”
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
Operating Results:

Rental income for the third quarter of 2012 increased 9.6% to $11.79 million from $10.76 million for the third quarter of 2011.  The increase is attributable primarily to rental income earned from the eleven properties acquired by the Company since July 2011.

Total operating expenses for the third quarter of 2012 increased 6.7% to $5.23 million from $4.9 million for the third quarter in the prior year. The increase is primarily attributable to increased depreciation and amortization, real estate expenses associated with the eleven properties acquired since July 2011, and general and administrative expense.

Income from continuing operations increased 17.8% to $3.11 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, from $2.64 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2011.

Net income attributable to One Liberty for the third quarter of 2012 increased 565% to $18.41 million or $1.23 per diluted share compared to $2.77 million or $0.19 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2011.  Net income increased primarily due to the $15 million net gain, or $1.00 per diluted share, from the sale of the Madison Avenue property.

Funds from Operations:

Funds from Operations (“FFO”) increased 14.7% to $6.07 million in the third quarter of 2012, or $0.41 per diluted share, from $5.29 million in the third quarter of 2011, or $0.36 per diluted share.  A reconciliation of GAAP amounts to non-GAAP amounts is presented with the financial information included later in this release.

Balance Sheet:

At September 30, 2012, the Company had $15.4 million of cash and cash equivalents, total assets of $469.1 million, total debt of $216.9 million and total equity of $236 million.

At October 31, 2012, One Liberty’s available liquidity, including the balances of $6 million it is required to maintain pursuant to the credit facility, was approximately $83.3 million, including $11.1 million of cash and cash equivalents and $72.2 million available under the credit facility.

Dividend:

On October 4, 2012, the Company paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.33 per share to stockholders of record as of September 25, 2012.  Based on the closing price of $18.77 per share on November 6, 2012, the current yield on an annualized basis is 7.0%.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

One Liberty believes that Funds from Operations (“FFO”) is a widely recognized and appropriate measure of the performance of an equity REIT. One Liberty presents FFO because it considers FFO to be an important supplemental measure of One Liberty’s operating performance. One Liberty believes FFO is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs, many of which present FFO when reporting their results. FFO is intended to exclude generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) historical cost depreciation and amortization of real estate and related assets, which assumes that the value of real estate diminishes ratably over time. Historically, however, real estate values have risen or fallen with market conditions. As a result, FFO provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, development activities, interest costs and other matters without the inclusion of depreciation and amortization, providing perspective that may not necessarily be apparent from net income.
 
 
 

 
 
 
One Liberty has determined FFO in accordance with standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“NAREIT”). FFO is defined by NAREIT as net income (or loss) computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, plus impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. Management believes FFO is of interest to securities analysts, investors and other interested parties and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures as reported by others.
