Highlights include:
| • | Funds From Operations (“FFO”) of $10.7 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 compared to FFO of $7.3 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2014. |

| • | Core operating property portfolio occupancy up to 95.6% compared to 95.1% as of September 30, 2014. |

| • | In October, the Company: |
| • | Agreed to invest up to $23.0 million in the new Point Street Apartments development project in the Harbor Point area of Baltimore, Maryland with options to acquire a controlling interest upon the project’s completion. |
| • | Completed the sale of the recently delivered Oceaneering International office building for $30.0 million, representing a 20% profit. |
Commenting on the Company’s results, Louis Haddad, President and CEO, said, “Our fifth consecutive quarter of Same Store NOI growth, the stabilization of the remaining two assets in our multifamily portfolio, the acquisition of 225,000 square feet of stabilized retail space and better than expected construction gross profits have allowed us to once again raise our earnings guidance for the year. Combined with today’s announcement of our investment in the Point Street Apartments development project, this quarter perfectly illustrates the broad and diverse capabilities of our unique business model.”
Financial Results
Net income for the third quarter increased 57.5% to $4.3 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, compared to $2.8 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2014. FFO for the third quarter increased 45.5% to $10.7 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, compared to $7.3 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2014. Normalized FFO for the third quarter increased 47.3% to $11.0 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, compared to $7.5 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2014.
The year-over-year increases in net income, FFO and Normalized FFO were primarily attributable to higher gross profits from the Company’s construction business, organic growth in the Same Store property portfolio, property acquisitions and the delivery and stabilization of new real estate development projects.
Operating Performance
At the end of the third quarter, the Company’s office, retail and multifamily core operating property portfolios were 95.5%, 96.2% and 94.9% occupied, respectively.
Total construction contract backlog was $118.2 million at the end of the third quarter.
Balance Sheet and Financing Activity
At the end of the third quarter, the Company had total outstanding debt of $420.1 million, including $106.0 million outstanding under the $150.0 million revolving credit facility.

Approximately 51.5% of the Company’s debt had fixed interest rates or were subject to interest rate swap locks at September 30, 2015. After considering LIBOR interest rate caps with strike prices at or below 150 basis points, approximately 77.3% of the Company’s debt was fixed or hedged at September 30, 2015. In October, the Company entered into a $75.0 million LIBOR interest rate cap agreement with a strike price of 125 basis points. With this new LIBOR interest rate cap, approximately 95.2% of the Company’s debt is fixed or hedged.
During the third quarter, the Company raised $4.1 million of gross proceeds under the At-The-Market (“ATM”) continuous equity offering program at a weighted average price of $10.11 per share. In July, the Company closed on a $50.0 million construction loan to fund the Johns Hopkins Village project.
Outlook
The Company raised 2015 full-year Normalized FFO guidance due to better than expected multifamily leasing and third party construction gross profit. The following table outlines the Company’s assumptions along with Normalized FFO per share estimates for the full-year 2015.

Certain matters within this press release are discussed using forward-looking language as specified in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and, as such, may involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results or performance to differ from those projected in the forward-looking statement. These forward-looking statements may include comments relating to the current and future performance of the Company’s operating property portfolio, the Company’s development pipeline, the Company’s construction and development business, including backlog and timing of deliveries, financing activities, as well as acquisitions, dispositions and the Company’s financial outlook and expectations. For a description of factors that may cause the Company’s actual results or performance to differ from its forward-looking statements, please review the information under the heading “Risk Factors” included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, and other documents filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company calculates FFO in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). NAREIT defines FFO as net income (loss) (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable operating property, real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs) and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

FFO is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure. The Company uses FFO as a supplemental performance measure because it believes that FFO is beneficial to investors as a starting point in measuring the Company’s operational performance. Specifically, in excluding real estate related depreciation and amortization and gains and losses from property dispositions, which do not relate to or are not indicative of operating performance, FFO provides a performance measure that, when compared period-over-period, captures trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs. We also believe that, as a widely recognized measure of the performance of REITs, FFO will be used by investors as a basis to compare the Company’s operating performance with that of other REITs.
However, because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization and captures neither the changes in the value of the Company’s properties that result from use or market conditions nor the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of the Company’s properties, all of which have real economic effects and could materially impact the Company’s results from operations, the utility of FFO as a measure of the Company’s performance is limited. In addition, other equity REITs may not calculate FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition as the Company does, and, accordingly, the Company’s FFO may not be comparable to such other REITs’ FFO. Accordingly, FFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income as a measure of the Company’s performance.
Management also believes that the computation of FFO in accordance with NAREIT’s definition includes certain items that are not indicative of the results provided by the Company’s operating property portfolio and affect the comparability of the Company’s period-over-period performance. Accordingly, management believes that Normalized FFO is a more useful performance measure that excludes certain items, including but not limited to, debt extinguishment losses and prepayment penalties, property acquisition, development and other pursuit costs, mark-to-market adjustments for interest rate derivatives and other non-comparable items.
For reference, as an aid in understanding the Company’s computation of FFO and Normalized FFO, a reconciliation of net income calculated in accordance with GAAP to FFO and Normalized FFO has been included on page eight of this release.
