FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Equity One Reports First Quarter 2016 Operating Results
New York, NY, April 27, 2016 - Equity One, Inc. (NYSE:EQY), an owner, developer, and operator of shopping centers, announced today its financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2016.
“We started 2016 with further acceleration of our core operating performance and significant progress on our redevelopment pipeline,” said David Lukes, CEO. “Robust leasing helped us generate the highest growth in reported quarterly same-property net operating income in the past 15 years, a retail portfolio average base rent of over $20 per square foot for the first time in the company’s history, and exceptionally strong leasing spreads.”
Highlights of the quarter and recent activity include:
• | Generated Recurring Funds From Operations of $0.36 per diluted share and Funds From Operations (FFO) of $0.32 per diluted share for the quarter, representing growth of 13% in Recurring FFO as compared to the first quarter of 2015 |
• | Same-property net operating income (NOI) excluding redevelopments increased by 5.6% (5.2% including redevelopments) as compared to the first quarter of 2015 |
• | Retail occupancy (excluding developments and redevelopments) increased to 96.2%, up 20 basis points as compared to December 31, 2015, and up 100 basis points as compared to March 31, 2015. Shop occupancy for these assets rose to 89.4%, up 70 basis points compared to December 31, 2015 and 320 basis points compared to March 31, 2015 |
• | Executed 107 leases totaling 850,312 square feet during the quarter, including 85 same-space new leases, renewals, and options totaling 642,712 square feet at an average rent spread of 28.8% on a cash basis (11.2% excluding an anchor lease renewal at Westwood Complex in Bethesda, Maryland) |
• | Retail portfolio average base rent (including developments and redevelopments) was $20.02 per square foot as of March 31, 2016 as compared to $19.48 as of December 31, 2015 |
• | Closed on the sale of three non-core assets for a total gross sales price of $10.3 million. Two of these assets were located in Louisiana and one in Florida |
• | Entered into a note purchase agreement for the issuance of $200.0 million of 10 year senior unsecured notes in order to address the remaining unsecured debt maturities through December 2018. These notes, which are expected to be issued in two series on or before May 11, 2016 and August 11, 2016, respectively, will carry a weighted average interest rate of 3.86% per annum |
• | The new 57,000 square foot Barney’s flagship store at 101 7th Avenue in Manhattan, New York, opened and commenced paying rent in February 2016. Completed an additional 16,000 square foot anchor lease with Party City at Serramonte Center in Daly City, California |
• | Revised 2016 Recurring FFO guidance from $1.35 to $1.40 per diluted share to $1.36 to $1.40 per diluted share |
Financial and Operational Highlights
Net income attributable to Equity One was $21.1 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2016, as compared to $8.0 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2015.
Recurring FFO was $50.7 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2016, as compared to $44.2 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2015, representing a 13% increase on a per share basis. In the first quarter of 2016, the company generated FFO of $45.0 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, as compared to $43.3 million, or $0.32 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2015. Included in Recurring FFO and FFO for the three months ended March 31, 2016 is $1.2 million of bad debt expense and straight-line rent reserves related to tenant bankruptcies, including The Sports
Authority, and other income of $494,000 related to the settlement of claims for historical bankruptcies. A reconciliation of Recurring FFO and FFO to net income attributable to Equity One, Inc. is provided in the tables accompanying this press release.
Same-property NOI excluding redevelopments increased by 5.6% for the first quarter of 2016 as compared to the first quarter of 2015, which was driven primarily by increased minimum rent from lease renewals and new rent commencements (net of vacancies) at properties including Westwood Complex, The Gallery at Westbury Plaza, South Beach Regional and Bird Ludlam. This increase was partially offset by $735,000 of bad debt expense included in same-property NOI related to tenant bankruptcies, including The Sports Authority, resulting in an increase of $506,000 in bad debt expense in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the first quarter of 2015. Same-property NOI for the broader same-property pool including redevelopments increased by 5.2% largely due to a lower 3.0% NOI growth from redevelopment assets for the first quarter of 2016 as compared to the first quarter of 2015. NOI increases in the redevelopment pool resulted from rent commencements at 101 7th Avenue, Alafaya Commons, Lake Mary Centre, Kirkman Shoppes and Boynton Plaza, which were partially offset by NOI decreases due to commencement of redevelopment activities at properties including Medford, Serramonte Center, Pablo Plaza and Point Royale. A reconciliation of same-property NOI to income before income taxes is provided in the tables accompanying this press release.
As of March 31, 2016, occupancy for the company’s retail portfolio (excluding developments and redevelopments) was 96.2%, up 20 basis points as compared to December 31, 2015, and up 100 basis points as compared to March 31, 2015. On a same-property basis, occupancy for the company’s retail portfolio increased to 96.3%, up 20 basis points compared to December 31, 2015, and up 80 basis points as compared to March 31, 2015. Anchor space occupancy (excluding developments and redevelopments) was 99.7% as of March 31, 2016, up 10 basis points as compared to December 31, 2015 and unchanged as compared to March 31, 2015. Shop space occupancy (excluding developments and redevelopments) was up 70 basis points to 89.4% as of quarter-end as compared to December 31, 2015, and was up 320 basis points as compared to March 31, 2015.
During the first quarter of 2016, the company executed 107 new leases, renewals, and options totaling 850,312 square feet, including 85 same-space leases totaling 642,712 square feet. On a same-space cash basis, average rents for these leases increased by 28.8% (11.2% excluding an anchor lease renewal at Westwood Complex). On a same-space basis, 24 new leases were executed in the first quarter of 2016 comprising 56,569 square feet at an average rental rate of $25.19 per square foot, representing a 15.0% increase from prior cash rents. Additionally, the company executed 61 renewals and options on a same-space basis, totaling 586,143 square feet at an average rental rate of $16.66 per square foot, representing a 31.1% increase from prior cash rents (10.6% excluding an anchor lease renewal at Westwood Complex). The 43 same-space negotiated renewals executed during the quarter accounted for 175,893 square feet at a 66.4% cash spread (14.5% excluding an anchor lease renewal at Westwood Complex).
Development and Redevelopment Activities
As of March 31, 2016, the company had approximately $246.0 million of active development and redevelopment projects underway of which $149.9 million remained to be incurred.
At Serramonte Center in Daly City, California, site work on the $109.1 million multi-phased redevelopment and expansion project continues to progress. This redevelopment is expected to ultimately add approximately 247,000 new square feet (209,000 of net leasable square feet), including an entertainment wing, new retail buildings, restaurant pads, an approximately 1,000 stall parking deck, and common area improvements. During the first quarter, a new lease was executed with Party City for 16,000 square feet. Along with other redevelopment anchors including Nordstrom Rack, Ross Dress for Less, Buy Buy Baby, Cost Plus World Market, Dave & Buster’s and Daiso, total gross leasable area (GLA) under lease is approximately 175,900 square feet, or 71% of the planned new retail GLA. The company is in advanced negotiations with other national retailers for much of the remaining space. The balance to complete this project is estimated at $98.5 million as of March 31, 2016.
At Point Royale in Miami, Florida, which was added to the redevelopment pipeline during the quarter, a new lease was executed in February 2016 with Burlington Coat Factory for approximately 50,500 square feet that will substantially replace the space previously leased to Best Buy, which vacated during the quarter. The company is in discussions with national retailers to lease the center’s remaining 30,000 square feet of junior anchor space. The budget for the redevelopment of Point Royale is currently estimated at $9.8 million as of March 31, 2016 but may change based upon the leasing of the junior anchor boxes.
At Countryside Shops in Cooper City, Florida, the company plans to build a new 45,600 square foot store for Publix, reconfigure existing space to accommodate a lease entered into with Ross Dress for Less during the quarter for 27,000 square feet, and make other enhancements to the center. The balance to complete this project is estimated at $15.6 million as of March 31, 2016.
At Lake Mary Centre in Lake Mary, Florida, the new 55,000 square foot Hobby Lobby space is expected to be delivered for build-out in the second quarter of 2016 and is expected to open for business in early 2017. The balance to complete this project is estimated at $5.1 million as of March 31, 2016.
At Cashmere Corners in Port St. Lucie, Florida, the approximately 45,900 square foot Walmart space commenced paying rent in March 2016. The Walmart Neighborhood Market includes a new drive thru pharmacy and substantially replaces the space previously leased to Albertsons, which had been dark and paying. The company is in discussions with national retailers to backfill approximately 12,000 square feet of space. The balance to complete this project is currently estimated at $647,000 as of March 31, 2016 but may change based upon the leasing of the remaining space.
The company has two additional properties in active development and redevelopment, Broadway Plaza and Pablo Plaza, encompassing approximately 241,400 square feet of project GLA with an estimated balance to complete of $20.4 million as of March 31, 2016.
Disposition Activity
In February 2016, the company continued its selective dispositions and closed on the sale of Beauclerc Village located in Jacksonville, Florida, Sherwood South located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and Plaza Acadienne located in Eunice, Louisiana, for an aggregate gross sales price of $10.3 million.
Investing and Financing Activities
In January 2016, Liberty International Holdings (“LIH”) issued a redemption notice with respect to its approximately 11.4 million units in the company’s CapCo joint venture. The company elected to satisfy the redemption through the issuance of approximately 11.4 million shares of its common stock which LIH subsequently sold in a public offering. As a result, the company now owns 100% of CapCo, LIH holds no remaining interests in the company or its subsidiaries, and David Fischel resigned from the company’s Board of Directors in connection with the termination of LIH’s board nomination right.
In January 2016, the company entered into a mortgage loan for $88.0 million secured by Westbury Plaza located in Westbury, New York. The mortgage loan matures in 10 years and bears interest at 3.76% per annum. In March 2016, the company prepaid a $16.0 million fixed rate secured mortgage loan due June 2016 with an interest rate of 6.33% per annum. In April 2016, the company prepaid a $15.1 million fixed rate secured mortgage loan due June 2016 with an interest rate of 5.75% per annum.
In February 2016, the company redeemed its $101.4 million 6.25% unsecured senior notes due January 2017. In connection with the redemption, the company recognized a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $5.2 million during the first quarter of 2016.
During the quarter, the company issued 985,521 shares of its common stock as part of its “at-the-market” equity offering program at a weighted average price per share of $27.82, resulting in cash proceeds of $27.4 million before expenses.
In April 2016, the company entered into a note purchase agreement for the issuance of $200.0 million of two series of senior unsecured notes. On or prior to May 11, 2016, the company expects to issue 3.81% series A senior unsecured notes due 2026 in an aggregate principal amount of $100.0 million, and on or prior to August 11, 2016, the company expects to issue 3.91% series B senior unsecured notes due 2026 in an aggregate principal amount of $100.0 million.
Balance Sheet Highlights
At March 31, 2016, the company’s total market capitalization (including debt and equity) was $5.4 billion, comprising 142.0 million shares of common stock outstanding (on a fully diluted basis) valued at approximately $4.1 billion and approximately $1.4 billion of debt (excluding any debt premium/discount). The company’s ratio of net debt (net of cash) to total market capitalization was 24.6%. At March 31, 2016, the company had approximately $28.7 million of cash and cash equivalents on hand and $118.0 million outstanding under its $600.0 million revolving credit facility.
FFO, Recurring FFO and Earnings Guidance
The company is revising its 2016 Recurring FFO guidance from $1.35 to $1.40 per diluted share to $1.36 to $1.40 per diluted share. Recurring FFO excludes transaction costs, impairment charges, debt extinguishment gains/losses, gains/losses on disposal of assets, severance costs, and certain other income or charges. The 2016 guidance is based on the following key assumptions:
• | Increase in same-property NOI (excluding redevelopments) of 3.25% to 4.25% |
• | Year-end 2016 same-property occupancy between 96.0% and 96.5% |
• | Recurring general and administrative expense of $33.0 million to $35.0 million |
• | Interest expense of $50.0 million to $52.0 million, including amortization of deferred financing costs and premium/discount on notes payable of $2.3 million (previous guidance excluded amortization of deferred financing costs and premium/discount on notes payable) |
• | Selective acquisition activity |
• | Ongoing one-off sales of non-core assets |
The following table provides a reconciliation of the range of estimated earnings per diluted share attributable to Equity One to estimated FFO and Recurring FFO per diluted share for the full year 2016:

ACCOUNTING AND OTHER DISCLOSURES
The company believes FFO (combined with the primary GAAP presentations) is a useful, supplemental measure of its operating performance that is a recognized metric used extensively by the real estate industry and, in particular, REITs. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) stated in its April 2002 White Paper on Funds from Operations, “Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors have considered presentations of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves.”
FFO, as defined by NAREIT, is “net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of, or impairment charges related to, depreciable operating properties, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.” NAREIT states further that “adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis.” The company makes certain adjustments to FFO, which it refers to as Recurring FFO, to account for items it does not believe are representative of ongoing operating results, including transaction costs associated with acquisition and disposition activity and other financing and investing activities, impairment of goodwill and land, severance and reorganization costs, gains (or losses) on the extinguishment of debt, and gains (or losses) on the disposal of non-depreciable assets. The company also believes that Recurring FFO is a useful, supplemental measure of its core operating performance that facilitates comparability of
historical financial periods. The company believes that financial analysts, investors and stockholders are better served by the presentation of comparable period operating results generated from its FFO and Recurring FFO measures. The company’s method of calculating FFO and Recurring FFO may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.
The company uses NOI, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, internally as a performance measure and believes NOI provides useful information to investors regarding the company’s financial condition and results of operations because it reflects only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level and when compared across periods, reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs and acquisition and disposition activity on an unleveraged basis. In this release, the company has provided NOI information on a same-property basis. Information provided on a same-property basis, unless otherwise noted, includes the results of properties that the company consolidated, owned and operated for the entirety of both periods being compared and excludes non-retail properties and properties for which significant development or redevelopment occurred during either of the periods being compared.
FFO, Recurring FFO and same-property NOI are presented to assist investors in analyzing the company’s operating performance. Neither FFO, Recurring FFO nor same-property NOI (i) represents cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP, (ii) is indicative of cash available to fund all cash flow needs, including the ability to make distributions, (iii) is an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity, or (iv) should be considered as an alternative to net income (which is determined in accordance with GAAP) for purposes of evaluating the company’s operating performance. The company believes net income attributable to Equity One is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to FFO and Recurring FFO while income before income taxes is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to NOI. Reconciliations of these measures to their respective comparable GAAP measures have been provided in the tables accompanying this press release.
Retail occupancy as used herein refers to the company’s consolidated portfolio and excludes non-retail properties and unconsolidated joint venture properties.

__________________________________________
(1) | Represents earnings attributed to convertible units held by LIH for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Although these convertible units are excluded from the calculation of earnings per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2015, FFO available to diluted stockholders includes earnings allocated to LIH, as the inclusion of these units is dilutive to FFO per diluted share. In January 2016, LIH exercised its redemption right with respect to all of its outstanding convertible units in the CapCo joint venture, and the company elected to satisfy the redemption through the issuance of approximately 11.4 million shares of its common stock to LIH. LIH subsequently sold the shares of common stock in a public offering that closed on January 19, 2016. |
(2) | Represents costs primarily associated with acquisitions and dispositions, as well as costs incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2015 in connection with the company’s issuance of shares of common stock to satisfy the exercise of LIH’s redemption right and the subsequent sale of these shares by LIH in a public offering. |
(3) | For the three months ended March 31, 2016, primarily includes severance expenses. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, includes the effect of the modification of share-based compensation awards associated with the company's executive transition, as well as severance, bonus payments and other costs associated with reorganizational changes. |
(4) | Weighted average diluted shares used to calculate FFO per share and Recurring FFO per share for the three months ended March 31, 2015 is higher than the GAAP diluted weighted average shares as a result of the dilutive impact of the 11.4 million joint venture units that were held by LIH which were convertible into the company's common stock. These convertible units were not included in the diluted weighted average share count for the three months ended March 31, 2015 for GAAP purposes because their inclusion was anti-dilutive. |
FFO and Recurring FFO are non-GAAP financial measures. The company believes that FFO, as defined by NAREIT, is a widely used and appropriate supplemental measure of operating performance for REITs, and that it provides a relevant basis for comparison among REITs. The company believes that Recurring FFO provides additional comparability between historical financial periods. See “Accounting and Other Disclosures” above.
