WASHINGTON REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST ANNOUNCES
FIRST QUARTER FINANCIAL AND OPERATING RESULTS

Washington Real Estate Investment Trust (“Washington REIT” or the “Company”) (NYSE: WRE), a leading owner and operator of diversified properties in the Washington, D.C. region, reported financial and operating results today for the quarter ended March 31, 2014:

First Quarter 2014 Highlights

Generated Core Funds from Operations (FFO) of $0.36 per fully diluted share for the quarter
Improved overall same-store physical occupancy 70 bps with the office and retail portfolios increasing 140 bps and 120 bps over first quarter 2013, respectively
Executed 50 new and renewal commercial leases totaling 159,978 square feet at an average rental rate increase of 16.6% over in-place rents for new leases and average rental rate increase of 13.1% over in-place rents for renewal leases
Completed transactions III & IV of the Medical Office Portfolio sale for $193.6 million
Acquired Yale West, a 216 unit Class A apartment building located in Washington, DC for $73 million
Acquired The Army Navy Club Building, a 108,000 square foot Class A office building located in Washington, DC for $79 million
Announced the appointment of Mr. Thomas Q. Bakke as the company's Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer

"Throughout the first quarter, Washington REIT continued to gain momentum as tenants who signed leases in 2013 took occupancy and began paying rent," said Paul T. McDermott, President and Chief Executive Officer. "In addition to increasing same-store occupancy, we also experienced rental rate growth across all of our divisions during the quarter. Our residential portfolio continued to be impacted by competitive pressures related to an oversupply of residential units, an extended construction pipeline and declining occupancy trajectories."

“We are continuing to execute on our strategy that has a sharpened focus on high-quality office, retail and residential properties with strong growth potential in Washington, DC and the Greater Washington region. To that end, we acquired two strategic properties this quarter, Yale West and The Army Navy Club Building, which strengthen our multifamily and office portfolios, respectively. Both of these properties are high quality assets in amenity rich locations, with exceptional demographics and strong Metro accessibility. Going forward, we are confident that the actions we are taking will enable Washington REIT to generate long-term growth and value creation for shareholders," said Mr. McDermott.

Financial Highlights

Core Funds from Operations(1), defined as Funds from Operations(1) (“FFO”) excluding acquisition expense, gains or losses on extinguishment of debt, severance expense and impairment, was $24.1 million, or $0.36 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2014, compared to $29.7 million, or $0.44 per diluted share for the prior year period.

FFO for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 was $21.0 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, compared to $29.7 million, or $0.44 per diluted share, in the same period one year ago.

Net income attributable to the controlling interests for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 was $104.6 million, or $1.56 per diluted share, compared to $7.3 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, in the same period one year ago. During the quarter, gain on sale of real estate was $106.3 million, or $1.59 per diluted share, compared to $3.2 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, in the same period one year ago.

Certain statements in our earnings release and on our conference call are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially. Such risks, uncertainties and other factors include, but are not limited to, the potential for federal government budget reductions, changes in general and local economic and real estate market conditions, the timing and pricing of lease transactions, the availability and cost of capital, fluctuations in interest rates, tenants' financial conditions, levels of competition, the effect of government regulation, the impact of newly adopted accounting principles, and other risks and uncertainties detailed from time to time in our filings with the SEC, including our 2013 Form 10-K. We assume no obligation to update or supplement forward-looking statements that become untrue because of subsequent events.

(1) Funds From Operations (“FFO”) - The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“NAREIT”) defines FFO (April, 2002 White Paper) as net income (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”)) excluding gains (or losses) associated with sales of property, impairment of depreciable real estate and real estate depreciation and amortization. FFO is a non-GAAP measure and does not replace net income as a measure of performance or net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity. We consider FFO to be a standard supplemental measure for equity real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) because it facilitates an understanding of the operating performance of our properties without giving effect to real estate depreciation and amortization, which historically assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have instead historically risen or fallen with market conditions, we believe that FFO more accurately provides investors an indication of our ability to incur and service debt, make capital expenditures and fund other needs.

Core Funds From Operations (“Core FFO”) is calculated by adjusting FFO for the following items (which we believe are not indicative of the performance of Washington REIT's operating portfolio and affect the comparative measurement of Washington REIT's operating performance over time): (1) gains or losses on extinguishment of debt, (2) costs related to the acquisition of properties, (3) severance expense related to corporate reorganization and related to the prior CEO's retirement and (4) property impairments not already excluded from FFO, as appropriate. These items can vary greatly from period to period, depending upon the volume of our acquisition activity and debt retirements, among other factors. We believe that by excluding these items, Core FFO serves as a useful, supplementary measure of Washington REIT's ability to incur and service debt and to distribute dividends to its shareholders. Core FFO is a non-GAAP and non-standardized measure and may be calculated differently by other REITs.

(2) Net Operating Income (“NOI”), defined as real estate rental revenue less real estate expenses, is a non-GAAP measure. NOI is calculated as net income, less non-real estate revenue and the results of discontinued operations (including the gain on sale, if any), plus interest expense, depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expenses, acquisition costs and real estate impairment. We provide NOI as a supplement to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP. As such, it should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of our operating performance. It is the primary performance measure we use to assess the results of our operations at the property level.

(3) For purposes of evaluating comparative operating performance, we categorize our properties as “same-store” or “non-same-store”. A same-store property is one that was owned for the entirety of the periods being evaluated and excludes properties under redevelopment or development and properties purchased or sold at any time during the periods being compared. A non-same-store property is one that was acquired, under redevelopment or development, or placed into service during either of the periods being evaluated. We define redevelopment properties as those for which we expect to spend significant development and construction costs on existing or acquired buildings pursuant to a formal plan which has a current impact on operating results, occupancy and the ability to lease space with the intended result of a higher economic return on the property. Properties under redevelopment or development are included within the non-same-store properties beginning in the period during which redevelopment or development activities commence. Redevelopment and development properties are included in the same-store pool upon completion of the redevelopment or development, and the earlier of achieving 90% occupancy or two years after completion.

(4) Funds Available for Distribution (“FAD”) is a non-GAAP measure. It is calculated by subtracting from FFO (1) recurring expenditures, tenant improvements and leasing costs that are capitalized and amortized and are necessary to maintain our properties and revenue stream and (2) straight-line rents, then adding (3) non-real estate depreciation and amortization, (4) amortization of restricted share and unit compensation, and adding or subtracting amortization of lease intangibles, as appropriate. We consider FAD to be a measure of a REIT's ability to incur and service debt and to distribute dividends to its shareholders. FAD is a non-standardized measure and may be calculated differently by other REITs.

(i) Same-Store properties include all stabilized properties that were owned for the entirety of the current and prior reporting periods, and exclude properties under redevelopment or development and properties purchased or sold at any time during the periods being compared. We define redevelopment properties as those for which we expect to spend significant development and construction costs on existing or acquired buildings pursuant to a formal plan which has a current impact on operating results, occupancy and the ability to lease space with the intended result of a higher economic return on the property. Redevelopment and development properties are included in the same-store pool upon completion of the redevelopment or development, and the earlier of achieving 90% occupancy or two years after completion. For Q1 2014 and Q1 2013, same-store properties exclude:

Multifamily Acquisitions: The Paramount and Yale West;
Office Acquisition: The Army Navy Club Building;
Office Redevelopment: 7900 Westpark Drive;
Retail Acquisitions: none.

Also excluded from Same-Store Properties in Q1 2014 and Q1 2013 are:
