JACKSON, MISSISSIPPI, February 2, 2015 - EastGroup Properties, Inc. (NYSE-EGP) announced today the results of its operations for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2014.

Commenting on EastGroup’s performance, David H.

For the full year 2014, FFO per share grew 7.4% as compared to 2013. We have now achieved FFO per share increases as compared to the previous year's quarter in fourteen of the last fifteen quarters and year-to-year increases for the last four years. In addition, 2014's FFO per share is the highest in EastGroup's history.

"Quarter-end occupancy was 96.3% which was our sixth consecutive quarter of 95% or above and our highest level since third quarter 2000. This occupancy and improving rent spreads generated increases in fourth quarter same property NOI results of 5.8% on a cash basis and 3.1% with straight-line rent adjustments, continuing our trend of positive property NOI growth which we expect to maintain in 2015."

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS

For the quarter ended December 31, 2014, funds from operations (FFO) were $.91 per share compared to $.84 per share for the same period of 2013, an increase of 8.3%.

Subsequent to year-end, EastGroup initiated construction of World Houston 42, a 100% pre-leased, 94,000 square foot business distribution building with a projected total cost of $5.7 million, and West Road IV, a 65,000 square foot business distribution building in Houston with a projected total cost of $5.4 million. The Company also began construction of Kyrene 202 VI in Chandler (Phoenix), Arizona. The business distribution building will contain 123,000 square feet and has a projected total cost of $9.5 million.

PROPERTY ACQUISITIONS AND SALES

In December 2014, the Company acquired Ramona Distribution Center in Chino, California, for $9.7 million. The 100,000 square foot business distribution building is located in the Inland Empire West Submarket of Greater Los Angeles and is 100% occupied by a single customer. The property is located less than a mile from EastGroup's existing Chino Distribution Center, a 100% leased 300,000 square foot bulk distribution building. In connection with this purchase, EastGroup recorded a mortgage with a balance of $2.8 million, an effective fixed interest rate of 3.85%, and a maturity date of November 30, 2026.

Also in December, EastGroup sold two of its three Ambassador Row Warehouses (132,000 square feet) for $3,688,000 and recognized a gain on the sale of $1,676,000 in the fourth quarter which was not included in FFO.

DIVIDENDS

EastGroup paid cash dividends of $.57 per share of common stock in the fourth quarter of 2014, which was the Company’s 140^th consecutive quarterly cash distribution. EastGroup has increased or maintained its dividend for 22 consecutive years and increased it 19 years over that period. The Company’s payout ratio of dividends to FFO was 64% for the year. The annualized dividend rate of $2.28 per share yielded 3.5% on the closing stock price of $64.64 on January 30, 2015.

FINANCIAL STRENGTH AND FLEXIBILITY

EastGroup continues to maintain a strong and flexible balance sheet. Debt-to-total market capitalization was 31.4% at December 31, 2014. For the fourth quarter, the Company had both interest and fixed charge coverage ratios of 4.3x and a debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) ratio of 6.09. The adjusted debt to EBITDA ratio was 5.53 for the quarter. For this ratio, the Company (a) adjusts debt by subtracting the cost of developments in lease-up or under construction, (b) adjusts EBITDA by adding an estimate of net operating income for significant acquisitions as if the acquired properties were owned for the entire period, and (c) adjusts EBITDA by subtracting net operating income from developments in lease-up or under construction and from properties sold during the period.

For the year, EastGroup had both interest and fixed charge coverage ratios of 4.1x and a debt to EBITDA ratio of 6.42. The adjusted debt to EBITDA ratio was 5.77 for the year.

Total debt at December 31, 2014 was $933.2 million comprised of $453.8 million of secured debt, $380.0 million of unsecured debt, and $99.4 million of unsecured bank credit facilities.

During the fourth quarter, EastGroup issued and sold 301,852 shares of common stock under its continuous equity program at an average price of $66.26 per share with gross proceeds to the Company of $20 million. For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company issued and sold a total of 1,246,400 shares of common stock under the program at an average price of $64.18 per share with gross proceeds of $80 million.

Subsequent to year-end, EastGroup reached an agreement on a $75 million senior unsecured term loan which is expected to close in early March 2015. The loan will have a seven-year term and interest only payments. It will bear interest at the annual rate of LIBOR plus an applicable margin (currently 1.4%) based on the Company's senior unsecured long-term debt rating. The Company also entered into an interest rate swap agreement to convert the loan's LIBOR rate component to a fixed interest rate for the entire term of the loan providing a total effective fixed interest rate of 3.03%.

•	General and administrative expense of $4.7 million in the first quarter and $15.8 million for the year. The year includes $2.7 million ($.08 per share) of accelerated restricted stock vesting for the retiring CEO and for the various costs associated with the CEO succession.

DEFINITIONS

The Company’s chief decision makers use two primary measures of operating results in making decisions: (1) property net operating income (PNOI), defined as Income from real estate operations less Expenses from real estate operations (including market-based internal management fee expense) plus the Company's share of income and property operating expenses from its less-than-wholly-owned real estate investments, and (2) funds from operations attributable to common stockholders (FFO). EastGroup defines FFO consistent with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts’ definition, as net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders computed in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of depreciable real estate property and impairment losses, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

PNOI and FFO are supplemental industry reporting measurements used to evaluate the performance of the Company’s investments in real estate assets and its operating results. The Company believes that the exclusion of depreciation and amortization in the industry’s calculations of PNOI and FFO provides supplemental indicators of the properties’ performance since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions. PNOI and FFO as calculated by the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled but differently calculated measures for other REITs. Investors should be aware that items excluded from or added back to FFO are significant components in understanding and assessing the Company’s financial performance.
