About the Data
Supplemental Information
The supplemental financial information package for the second quarter ended June 30, 2013 that accompanies this presentation, and the Company's Form 10-Q
report for the same period, were filed on August 5, 2013 and are available on Cole's website at www.colereit.com.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
FFO and AFFO
Funds From Operations (“FFO”) is a non-GAAP financial performance measure defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts
(“NAREIT”) and widely recognized by investors and analysts as one measure of operating performance of a real estate company. The FFO calculation excludes
items such as real estate depreciation and amortization, gains and losses on the sale of depreciable real estate and impairments of depreciable real estate.
Depreciation and amortization as applied in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since
real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, it is management’s view, and we believe the view of many industry investors and
analysts, that the presentation of operating results for real estate companies by using the historical cost accounting method alone is insufficient. In addition, FFO
excludes gains and losses from the sale of depreciable real estate and impairment charges on depreciable real estate, which we believe provides management and
investors with a helpful additional measure of the performance of our real estate portfolio, as it allows for comparisons, year to year, that reflect the impact on
operations from trends in items such as occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, general and administrative expenses, and interest costs. We compute FFO
in accordance with NAREIT’s definition.
In addition to FFO, we use Adjusted Funds From Operations (“AFFO”) as a non-GAAP supplemental financial performance measure to evaluate the operating
performance of our real estate portfolio. AFFO, as defined by our company, excludes from FFO merger, acquisition, and listing related costs, amortization and
write off of deferred financing costs, straight-line rent adjustments, above and below market lease intangibles amortization, realized loss on derivatives and debt
prepayment fees, gain on sale of marketable securities, other amortization or accretion, other gains, adjustments for discontinued operations and our
proportionate share of adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures, all of which are required to be expensed or recorded as additions to revenue or other income
in accordance with GAAP. In evaluating the performance of our portfolio over time, management employs business models and analyses that differentiate the
costs to acquire investments from the investments’ revenues and expenses. Management believes that excluding the items noted above from AFFO provides
investors with supplemental performance information that is consistent with the performance models and analysis used by management, and provides investors a
view of the performance of our portfolio over time, including after the Company ceases to acquire properties on a frequent and regular basis. AFFO also allows
for a comparison of the performance of our portfolio with other REITs that are not currently engaging in acquisitions and mergers, as well as a comparison of our
performance with that of other REITs, as AFFO, or an equivalent measure, is routinely reported by REITs, and we believe often used by analysts and investors
for comparison purposes.
For all of these reasons, we believe FFO and AFFO, in addition to net income and cash flows from operating activities, as defined by GAAP, are helpful
supplemental performance measures and useful in understanding the various ways in which our management evaluates the performance of our real estate
portfolio over time. However, not all REITs calculate FFO and AFFO the same way, so comparisons with other REITs may not be meaningful. FFO and AFFO
should not be considered as alternatives to net income or to cash flows from operating activities, and are not intended to be used as a liquidity measure indicative
of cash flow available to fund our cash needs.

About the Data (continued)
Non-GAAP Financial Measures continued
EBITDA and Normalized EBITDA
Normalized EBITDA
as
disclosed
represents
EBITDA,
or
earnings
before
interest,
taxes,
depreciation
and
amortization,
modified
to
include
other
adjustments to GAAP net income for merger, acquisition, and listing related expenses which are considered non-recurring and gain/losses in real
estate and derivatives which are not considered fundamental attributes of our business plans and do not affect our overall long-term operating
performance.
We
exclude
these
items
from
Normalized
EBITDA
as
they
are
not
the
primary
drivers
in
our
decision
making
process.
In
addition,
our
assessment of our operations is focused on long-term sustainability and not on such non-cash items, which may cause short term fluctuations in net
income but have no impact on cash flows.  We believe that Normalized EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure to investors and analysts for
assessing the performance of our business segments, although it does not represent net income that is computed in accordance with GAAP.
Therefore, Normalized EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income or as an indicator of our financial performance. We use
Normalized EBITDA as one measure of our operating performance when we formulate corporate goals and evaluate the effectiveness of our
strategies.  Normalized EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
Adjusted Revenue
Adjusted Revenue is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents revenue on a GAAP basis adjusted to eliminate revenue recorded as
reimbursement revenue in accordance with GAAP. Included within Offering Fee Revenue and Management Fee Revenue is revenue related to
expense reimbursements for offering costs and certain general and administrative costs incurred by the Company, included in general and
administrative expense
of
the
Company,
which
is
reimbursed
by
the
managed
REITs.
We
believe
that
excluding
the
items
noted
above
from
revenue
provides investors with supplemental performance information that is consistent with the performance models and analysis used by
management.
Adjusted
Revenues
should
not
be
considered
as
an
alternative
to
revenue
or
cash
flows
from
operating
activities
computed
on a
GAAP basis as a measure of our profitability. Adjusted Revenues may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
GAAP Reconciliations
A reconciliation of net income to FFO, AFFO and Normalized EBITDA and a reconciliation of revenue to adjusted revenue are provided in the
Supplemental Financial Information for the second quarter of 2013 accompanying this presentation.
Lease Yield
Lease yield is calculated as the average annual rental income, adjusted for any rent concessions or abatements, for the in-place leases over the non-
cancellable lease
term
at
the
respective
property
divided
by
the
property
purchase
price,
exclusive
of
acquisition
costs.
In
general,
our
properties
are
subject to long-term triple net or double net leases, and the future costs associated with the double net leases are unpredictable and may reduce the
yield.
