AVENTURA, FL, May 7, 2014 – Trade Street Residential, Inc. (NASDAQ: TSRE) (the “Company”), a vertically integrated and self-managed real estate investment trust focused on acquiring, owning, operating and managing high-quality, conveniently located, apartment communities in mid-sized cities and suburban submarkets of larger cities primarily in the southeastern United States and Texas, today announced consolidated results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2014.

  

Operational and Financial Highlights for First Quarter 2014

  

·Reported Core FFO of $0.9 million, or $0.03 per diluted share.

 

·Same store net operating income, or same store NOI, increased 6.3% compared to the same period in the prior year. Over the same period, same store revenue increased 6.8% and same store expenses increased 7.4%.

 

·Same store average occupancy was 95.5% at quarter end, a gain of 190 basis points compared to the same period last year.

 

·Same store average rent increased to $871 per unit, an increase of 2.7% compared to the same period last year. Average rent across the entire portfolio was $948.

 

·Acquired five communities totaling 1,530 units for an aggregate investment of $198 million.

 

·Subsequent to the end of the first quarter, Richard H. Ross was appointed to the permanent position of Chief Executive Officer, and interim Chief Financial Officer.

  

“We are pleased to report strong growth in revenue and net operating income for another consecutive quarter as we continue to capture higher rental rates and maintain our occupancy levels,” stated Richard Ross, Chief Executive Officer and interim Chief Financial Officer of Trade Street Residential. “During the quarter, we expanded our capital base, strengthened our balance sheet and further improved the quality and age of our operating property portfolio with the acquisition of five well-located luxury apartment communities for approximately $198 million.

Financial Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2014

  

Net loss attributable to common stockholders for the first quarter of 2014 was a net loss of ($15.2) million as compared to net income of $6.8 million in the prior year period. The net loss for the first quarter of 2014 was primarily the result of a $9.0 million charge related to the costs associated with the separation from the Company of certain members of senior management (as discussed below under “Management and Director Transition”). Net income for the first quarter of 2013 included a one-time gain of $11.7 million related to the extinguishment of equity securities. The net loss per basic and diluted share for the first quarter of 2014 was ($0.48), a change from net income per share of $1.44 in the prior year period, primarily as a result of the foregoing factors.

  

Funds from Operations, or FFO, for the first quarter of 2014 was a deficit of ($10.6) million, or ($0.33) per diluted share, as compared to a deficit of ($1.6) million, or ($0.34) per diluted share in the prior year period. The decrease in FFO is largely the result of the charge related to the management transitions. Core FFO for the first quarter of 2014 was $0.9 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, as compared to a deficit of ($0.5) million, or ($0.11) per diluted share in the prior year period. The increase in Core FFO from the prior period is largely the result of $3.1 million of additional NOI from the ten properties acquired since March 2013, partially offset by increased interest expense and additional general and administrative expenses during the first quarter of 2014.

  

Portfolio Performance

  

Same store NOI for the first quarter of 2014 was $2.9 million as compared to $2.8 million in the same period in the prior year. Same store NOI increased 6.3% as compared to the first quarter of the prior year, driven primarily by a 6.8% increase in same store revenue, partially offset by a 7.4% increase in same store property expenses. The increase in same store revenue was primarily attributable to a 190 basis point increase in average occupancy to 95.5%, and a 2.7% increase in average rent to $871 per month. The increase in same store expenses was primarily attributable to increased property taxes, salaries and benefits as well as weather related expenses incurred during the first quarter 2014.

  

On a sequential quarter basis, first quarter 2014 same store revenue increased 0.2% compared to the fourth quarter of 2013, while same store property expenses decreased 3.8% resulting in a same store NOI increase of 4.0%. The reduction in property expenses is primarily due to lower repair and maintenance costs in the first quarter of 2014.

In January 2014, the Company completed its $150 million recapitalization transaction, raising proceeds of $100 million in an offering of 15,797,789 shares of common stock at $6.33 per share to the holders of subscription rights granted to existing stockholders as of December 16, 2013, and a concurrent $50 million private placement of shares of common stock to certain investment entities managed or advised by Senator Investment Group LP (collectively, "Senator") at $6.33 per share. In addition, Senator agreed to a backstop commitment to purchase all shares not purchased by holders of rights in the rights offering. Holders of subscription rights in the rights offering acquired $98.5 million, or approximately 98.5% of the shares available in the rights offering. Following the completion of the transactions, Senator owned approximately 25.5% of the 36,576,096 shares of outstanding common stock of the Company as of March 31, 2014.

  

In January 2014, the Company entered into a new $75 million senior secured credit facility with an accordion feature allowing the Company to increase borrowing capacity to $250 million, subject to certain approvals. The credit facility has an initial three-year term that can be extended at the Company's option for up to two, one-year periods and has a variable interest rate of LIBOR plus a spread of 1.75% to 2.75%, depending on the Company's consolidated leverage ratio.

  

In addition, in conjunction with the closing of the new credit facility, the Company paid off approximately $29.6 million of variable rate debt and, in February 2014, the Company refinanced two of its properties, Estates at Millenia and Fountains Southend, which had 2014 debt maturities aggregating $65 million, with long-term fixed rate loans.

While forward-looking statements reflect the Company's good faith beliefs, assumptions and expectations, they are not guarantees of future performance. Furthermore, the Company disclaims any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect changes in underlying assumptions or factors, of new information, data or methods, future events or other changes, except as may be required by law.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

  

As defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, FFO represents net income (loss) (computed in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP")), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property and bargain purchase gains, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. The Company presents FFO attributable to common stockholders because management considers it to be an important supplemental measure of the Company’s operating performance, believes it assists in the comparison of the Company’s operating performance between periods to that of different REITs and believes it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs, many of which present FFO when reporting their operating results. As such, the Company also excludes the impact of noncontrolling interests, only as they relate to operating partnership units, in the calculation. FFO is intended to exclude 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. Because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization unique to real estate, gains and losses from property dispositions and extraordinary items, it 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 and interest costs, providing perspective not immediately apparent from net income. In October 2011, NAREIT communicated to its members that the exclusion of impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate is consistent with the definition of FFO and prior periods should be restated to be consistent with this guidance.

 

The Company also uses core funds from operations, or Core FFO, as an operating measure. Core FFO includes adjustments to exclude the impact of straight-line adjustments for ground leases, gains and losses from extinguishment of debt, transaction costs related to acquisitions and reorganization, management transition costs and certain other non-cash items. The Company believes that these adjustments are appropriate in determining Core FFO as they are not indicative of the operating performance of the Company’s assets. In addition, the Company believes that Core FFO is a useful supplemental measure for the investing community to use in comparing the Company to other REITs as most REITs provide some form of adjusted or modified FFO.

 

Management believes that net operating income (“NOI”) is a useful measure of our operating performance. We define NOI as total property revenues less total property operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. We believe that this measure provides an operating perspective not immediately apparent from GAAP operating income or net income. We use NOI to evaluate our performance on a same store and non-same store basis. NOI allows us to evaluate the operating performance of our properties because it measures the core operations of property performance by excluding corporate level expenses and other items not related to property operating performance and captures trends in rental housing and property operating expenses.

The Company defines same store communities as communities owned and stabilized for the entirety of both periods presented, excluding properties held for sale. Reconciliations of net income attributable to common stockholders to FFO, Core FFO, NOI, and same store NOI are included in the Supplemental Information posted on the Company’s website.

1The extent of the renovations included within the term “renovated” depends on the individual apartment community, but “renovated” generally refers to the replacement of siding, roof, wood, windows or boilers, updating of gutter systems, renovation of leasing centers and interior rehabilitation, including updated appliances, countertops, vinyl plank flooring, fixtures, fans and lighting, or some combination thereof.

 

2Average physical occupancy represents the average occupancy for the three months ended March 31, 2014 of the total number of units occupied at each apartment community during the period divided by the total number of units at each apartment community.

 

3We own a 50% interest in this apartment community through an unconsolidated joint venture.

 

4We acquired these apartment communities during the first quarter of 2014 and, as such, average physical occupancy for these communities has been excluded from this table.

1We define “Same Store” as properties owned and stabilized since January 1, 2013 through March 31, 2014 excluding properties held for sale. For newly constructed or lease-up properties or properties undergoing significant redevelopment, we consider a property to be stabilized at the earlier of (i) attainment of 90% physical occupancy or (ii) the one-year anniversary of completion of development or redevelopment. No properties owned since January 1, 2013 were under construction or undergoing redevelopment and, as a result, no properties owned since January 1, 2013 were excluded from the same store portfolio. For the three months ended March 31, 2014, "Same Store" properties are comprised of: The Pointe at Canyon Ridge, Arbor River Oaks, Lakeshore on the Hill, The Trails of Signal Mountain, Post Oak, Mercé Apartments, Park at Fox Trails, Estates at Millenia, and Westmont Commons.

Trade Street Residential, Inc.  
1st Quarter 2014 Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliations
(Unaudited)  

 

The supplemental financial data contained in this document contains certain non-GAAP financial measures management believes are useful in understanding our business and evaluating our performance. Our definitions and calculations of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from those of other equity REITs, and thus may not be comparable to other REITs. The non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indication of our operating performance, or to net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.

 

Funds from Operations ("FFO")

As defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, FFO represents net income (loss) (computed in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP")), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property and bargain purchase gains, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. The Company presents FFO attributable to common stockholders because management considers it to be an important supplemental measure of the Company’s operating performance, believes it assists in the comparison of the Company’s operating performance between periods to that of different REITs and believes it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs, many of which present FFO when reporting their operating results. As such, the Company also excludes the impact of noncontrolling interests, only as they relate to operating partnership units, in the calculation. FFO is intended to exclude 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. Because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization unique to real estate, gains and losses from property dispositions and extraordinary items, it 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 and interest costs, providing perspective not immediately apparent from net income. In October 2011, NAREIT communicated to its members that the exclusion of impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate is consistent with the definition of FFO and prior periods should be restated to be consistent with this guidance.

 

Core Funds from Operations ("Core FFO")

The Company also uses core funds from operations, or Core FFO, as an operating measure. Core FFO includes adjustments to exclude the impact of straight-line adjustments for ground leases, gains and losses from extinguishment of debt, transaction costs related to acquisitions and reorganization, management transition costs and certain other non-cash items. The Company believes that these adjustments are appropriate in determining Core FFO as they are not indicative of the operating performance of the Company’s assets. In addition, the Company believes that Core FFO is a useful supplemental measure for the investing community to use in comparing the Company to other REITs as most REITs provide some form of adjusted or modified FFO.

 

Net Operating Income ("NOI")

Management believes that net operating income (“NOI”) is a useful measure of our operating performance. We define NOI as total property revenues less total property operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. We believe that this measure provides an operating perspective not immediately apparent from GAAP operating income or net income. We use NOI to evaluate our performance on a same store and non-same store basis. NOI allows us to evaluate the operating performance of our properties because it measures the core operations of property performance by excluding corporate level expenses and other items not related to property operating performance and captures trends in rental housing and property operating expenses.

 

Page 20
 

 

The Company defines same store communities as communities owned and stabilized for the entirety of both periods presented, excluding properties held for sale. Reconciliations of net income attributable to common stockholders to FFO, Core FFO, NOI, and same store NOI are included in the Supplemental Information posted on the Company’s website.

 

The following table reflects same store and non-same store contributions to consolidated NOI together with a reconciliation of NOI to net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders, as computed in accordance with GAAP:

The Company defines “Same Store” as properties owned and stabilized since January 1, 2013 through March 31, 2014 excluding properties held for sale. For newly constructed or lease-up properties or properties undergoing significant redevelopment, we consider a property to be stabilized at the earlier of (i) attainment of 90% physical occupancy or (ii) the one-year anniversary of completion of development or redevelopment. No properties owned since January 1, 2013 were under construction or undergoing redevelopment and, as a result, no properties owned since January 1, 2013 were excluded from the same store portfolio.
