BOSTON PROPERTIES ANNOUNCES

SECOND QUARTER 2013 RESULTS

Reports diluted FFO per share of $1.28 Reports diluted EPS of $2.94

BOSTON, MA, July 30, 2013 – Boston Properties, Inc. (NYSE: BXP), a real estate investment trust, reported results today for the second quarter ended June 30, 2013.

Funds from Operations (FFO) for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 were $195.4 million, or $1.29 per share basic and $1.28 per share diluted. This compares to FFO for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 of $206.5 million, or $1.37 per share basic and $1.36 per share diluted. The weighted average number of basic and diluted shares outstanding totaled 151,938,203 and 153,796,959, respectively, for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 and 150,312,215 and 152,047,213, respectively, for the quarter ended June 30, 2012.

The Company’s reported FFO of $1.28 per share diluted was greater than the guidance previously provided of $1.25-$1.27 per share. The Company’s reported FFO included the following items, among others, that were not reflected in the guidance: approximately $0.01 per share as a result of lower operating expenses and approximately $0.01 per share of higher than expected leasing and other fee income.

Net income available to common shareholders was $452.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, compared to $118.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2012. Net income available to common shareholders per share (EPS) for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 was $2.95 basic and $2.94 on a diluted basis. This compares to EPS for the second quarter of 2012 of $0.79 basic and $0.78 on a diluted basis.

The reported results are unaudited and there can be no assurance that the results will not vary from the final information for the quarter ended June 30, 2013. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of these reported results have been made.

On April 15, 2013, the Company announced that holders of its Operating Partnership’s 3.75% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2036 (the “Notes”) had the right to surrender their Notes for purchase by the Operating Partnership (the “Put Right”) on May 18, 2013. On April 15, 2013, the Company also announced that the Operating Partnership issued a notice of redemption to the holders of the Notes to redeem, on May 18, 2013 (the “Redemption Date”), all of the Notes outstanding on the Redemption Date. In connection with the notice of redemption, holders of the Notes had the right to exchange their Notes on or prior to May 16, 2013. Notes with respect to which the Put Right was not exercised and that were not surrendered for exchange on or prior to May 16, 2013, were redeemed by the Operating Partnership at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. Based on final information provided to the Operating Partnership by the trustee for the Notes, no Notes were validly tendered and accepted for purchase in the Put Right. Pursuant to the notice of redemption, an aggregate principal amount of $990,000 of the Notes was redeemed on May 18, 2013. The remaining aggregate principal amount of $449,010,000 of the Notes was surrendered for exchange and, in addition to the repayment of the principal in cash, the Company issued an aggregate of 419,116 shares of its common stock in exchange for the Notes.

 

   

On April 25, 2013, the Company commenced construction of its 601 Massachusetts Avenue development project totaling approximately 478,000 net rentable square feet located in Washington, DC. The project is approximately 79% pre-leased.

 

   

On May 30, 2013, a joint venture in which the Company has a 60% interest completed the sale of its 125 West 55th Street property located in New York City for a sale price of $470.0 million, including the assumption by the buyer of the mortgage loan collateralized by the property totaling approximately $198.6 million. 125 West 55th Street is a Class A office property totaling approximately 588,000 net rentable square feet.

 

   

On May 31, 2013, a joint venture in which the Company has a 30% interest refinanced its construction loan collateralized by 500 North Capitol Street, NW located in Washington, DC. The construction loan totaling approximately $90.6 million bore interest at a variable rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.65% per annum and was scheduled to mature on October 14, 2014. The new mortgage loan totaling $105.0 million requires interest-only payments at a fixed interest rate of 4.15% per annum and matures on June 6, 2023.

 

   

On May 31, 2013, the Company’s two joint venture partners in 767 Venture, LLC (the entity that owns 767 Fifth Avenue (The GM Building) in New York City) transferred all of their interests in the joint venture to third parties. In connection with the transfer, the Company and its new joint venture partners modified the Company’s relative decision making authority and consent rights with respect to the joint venture’s assets and operations. These changes resulted in the Company having sufficient financial and operating control over 767 Venture, LLC such that the Company now accounts for the assets, liabilities and operations of 767 Venture, LLC on a consolidated basis in its financial statements instead of under the equity method of accounting. Upon consolidation, the Company recognized a non-cash gain on its investment of approximately $363.4 million. The financial impact and reporting implications are presented on the accompanying table entitled “Projected Operating Results.” There can be no assurance that the actual operating results will not differ materially from these projections.

On June 5, 2013, a joint venture in which the Company has a 60% interest refinanced its mortgage loans collateralized by 540 Madison Avenue located in New York City. The mortgage loans aggregating approximately $118.0 million bore interest at a weighted-average fixed rate of 5.20% per annum and were scheduled to mature on July 11, 2013. The new mortgage loan totaling $120.0 million requires interest-only payments at a variable rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.50% per annum and matures on June 5, 2018.

On June 27, 2013, the Company’s Operating Partnership completed a public offering of $700.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its 3.800% senior unsecured notes due 2024. The notes were priced at 99.694% of the principal amount to yield an effective rate (including financing fees) of 3.916% to maturity.

Net cash proceeds totaled approximately $39.3 million. 303 Almaden Boulevard is a Class A office property totaling approximately 158,000 net rentable square feet. During the first quarter of 2013, the Company recognized an impairment loss totaling approximately $3.2 million, which was excluded from FFO in accordance with NAREIT’s definition, as the carrying value of the property exceeded its net sale price. As a result, there was no loss on sale of real estate recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2013.

Transactions completed subsequent to June 30, 2013:

 

   

On July 1, 2013, the Company completed and fully placed in-service its Cambridge Center Connector project with approximately 43,000 net rentable square feet located in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The project is 100% leased.

The sale is subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions and there can be no assurance that the sale will be consummated on the terms currently contemplated, or at all.

 

   

On July 19, 2013, a joint venture in which the Company has a 50% interest completed the sale of its Eighth Avenue and 46th Street project located in New York City for an imputed sale price of $45.0 million.

On July 26, 2013, the Company’s Operating Partnership amended and restated the revolving credit agreement governing the Company’s Unsecured Line of Credit, which, among other things, (1) increased the total commitment from $750.0 million to $1.0 billion, (2) extended the maturity date from June 24, 2014 to July 26, 2018 and (3) reduced the per annum variable interest rates and other fees. Based on the Operating Partnership’s current credit rating, borrowings will bear interest at a per annum rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.00%. Under the amended and restated Unsecured Line of Credit, the Operating Partnership may increase the total commitment to $1.5 billion, subject to syndication of the increase.

EPS and FFO per Share Guidance:

The Company’s guidance for the third quarter and full year 2013 for EPS (diluted) and FFO per share (diluted) is set forth and reconciled below. The estimates include the impact of (1) the Operating Partnership’s issuance of $700 million of 3.800% senior unsecured notes on June 27, 2013, which will result in related interest expense of approximately $0.08 per share for the period July 1 – December 31, 2013, (2) a reduction in capitalized interest due to a decline in the Company’s average corporate borrowing rate which is expected to result in $0.02 per share of higher interest expense for the remainder of 2013 and (3) the anticipated sale of 1301 New York Avenue in the third quarter of 2013, which is expected to result in approximately $0.02 per share of less income for the remainder of 2013. In addition and except as described below, the estimates reflect management’s view of current and future market conditions, including assumptions with respect to rental rates, occupancy levels and the earnings impact of the events referenced in this release and otherwise referenced during the conference call referred to below. The estimates do not include possible future gains or losses or the impact on operating results from other possible future property acquisitions or dispositions, other possible capital markets activity or possible future impairment charges. EPS estimates may be subject to fluctuations as a result of several factors, including changes in the recognition of depreciation and amortization expense and any gains or losses associated with disposition activity. The Company is not able to assess at this time the potential impact of these factors on projected EPS. By definition, FFO does not include real estate-related depreciation and amortization, impairment losses or gains or losses associated with disposition activities. There can be no assurance that the Company’s actual results will not differ materially from the estimates set forth below.

(1) Pursuant to the revised definition of Funds from Operations adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), we calculate Funds from Operations, or “FFO,” by adjusting net income (loss) attributable to Boston Properties, Inc. (computed in accordance with GAAP, including non-recurring items) for gains (or losses) from sales of properties, impairment losses on depreciable real estate of consolidated real estate, impairment losses on investments in unconsolidated joint ventures driven by a measurable decrease in the fair value of depreciable real estate held by the unconsolidated joint ventures, real estate related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustment for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure. The use of FFO, combined with the required primary GAAP presentations, has been fundamentally beneficial in improving the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and making comparisons of REIT operating results more meaningful. Management generally considers FFO to be a useful measure for reviewing our comparative operating and financial performance because, by excluding gains and losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets, impairment losses and real estate asset depreciation and amortization (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates), FFO can help one compare the operating performance of a company’s real estate between periods or as compared to different companies.

Our computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs or real estate companies that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently.

FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income attributable to Boston Properties, Inc. (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of our performance. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP, and is not a measure of liquidity or an indicator of our ability to make cash distributions. We believe that to further understand our performance, FFO should be compared with our reported net income attributable to Boston Properties, Inc. and considered in addition to cash flows in accordance with GAAP, as presented in our consolidated financial statements.

 

(2) Real estate depreciation and amortization consists of depreciation and amortization from the Consolidated Statements of Operations of $134,604, $111,168, $255,199 and $219,630, our share of unconsolidated joint venture real estate depreciation and amortization of $15,535, $23,513, $37,192 and $46,634 and depreciation and amortization from discontinued operations of $0, $907, $596 and $2,310, less corporate-related depreciation and amortization of $322, $369, $615 and $737 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
(3) Consists of the portion of income from unconsolidated joint ventures related to the gain on sale of 125 West 55th Street totaling approximately $43.3 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. The gains on consolidation of joint ventures consisted of (1) 767 Fifth Avenue (The GM Building) totaling approximately $363.4 million and (2) the Company’s Value-Added Fund’s Mountain View properties totaling approximately $24.4 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013.

(1) Under the equity method of accounting, the Company’s 60% share of net income from 767 Venture, LLC was included within the line item “income from unconsolidated joint ventures”; in the projections above, this amount is ($9.4) million. The Company’s share of 767 Venture, LLC’s FFO was calculated by eliminating interest expense on the intercompany loan and adding the Company’s 60% share of depreciation and amortization to net income; in the projections above, the resulting amount is $41.3 million.
(2) Beginning June 1, 2013, the Company is recording 100% of 767 Venture, LLC’s period activity within its consolidated statements of operations and eliminating intercompany transactions. The partners’ 40% share of the net (income) loss of the property will be reflected within the line item “Noncontrolling interests in property partnerships.” (Note that the line item “Noncontrolling interests in property partnerships” will now include 767 Fifth Avenue (The GM Building), 505 9th Street, Transbay Tower and Fountain Square.) In the projections above, this amount is $11.2 million and is reconciled below. Noncontrolling interests in property partnerships includes our partners’ 40% share of net income prior to interest expense on partner loan, plus 100% of the partner loan interest expense attributable to our partners and 40% of the property management fee which is eliminated through consolidation. The Company’s FFO from 767 Venture, LLC is calculated by deducting our partners’ 40% share of FFO; in the projections above, the resulting amount is $44.3 million.

(3) Under Accounting Standards Codification 805, Business Combinations, in connection with the consolidation of 767 Venture, LLC, the Company was required to assess the fair value of acquired tangible and intangible assets (including land, buildings, tenant improvements, “above-” and “below-market” leases, leasing and assumed financing origination costs, acquired in-place leases, other identified intangible assets and assumed liabilities) and allocate the purchase price to the acquired assets and assumed indebtedness and liabilities, as if vacant. In accordance with the accounting for 767 Fifth Avenue (GM Building) as a business combination, straight-line rent and depreciation and amortization expense have been reset as of June 1, 2013.
