Washington Prime Group Reports Second Quarter 2017 Results



COLUMBUS, OH - July 26, 2017 - Washington Prime Group Inc. (NYSE: WPG) today reported results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2017 that reflect continued progress on the execution of the Company’s financial, operating and strategic objectives.

Lou Conforti, CEO and Director stated: “We increased guidance for fiscal 2017 net income and reaffirmed guidance for adjusted FFO to the midpoint of $1.23 and $1.67 per diluted share, respectfully. The second quarter was best characterized by continued stability as it related to Tier 1 and Open Air assets, which collectively represent 80% of total portfolio NOI. In addition, our objectives of diversification and common area utilization are proving successful as we mix things up and administer a much needed shot of adrenalin to our assets.”

“During the quarter, our leasing team didn’t just backfill space, they approached the shuttering of fair-to-middling retailers as an opportunity to diversify our tenant mix. As a result, year-to-date leasing volume totaled 2.6 million square feet as of June 30, 2017. What is encouraging is the fact that 40% of new deals are Lifestyle tenants, including food and beverage, entertainment and fitness. Our hybrid town center concept, which incorporates both enclosed and open air formats, now constitutes 70% of our enclosed retail properties. Future redevelopment efforts will further this optimized model. On the topic of redevelopment, we currently have 54 projects ranging from between $1-$60 million with an average estimated project yield of 9.5%.”

“Successful innovation can manifest itself in a variety of ways. Within our space, it boils down to whether or not we are improving the logistics, distribution and delivery of goods and services, and as importantly, enhancing the experience for our guests. Whether it be rolling out Tangible, our eCommerce platform; locating local craft brewers ‘center court’; providing ‘outside the box’ installations such as pop up shops, trunk shows, vending machines, digital media or a combination thereof; our continued and growing association with Amazon; ongoing discussions with a leading entertainment company to have ‘up and coming’ acts perform at our assets; or our Shelby’s Sugar Shop candy stores, it is imperative we practice both art and science, as well as common sense as to what our demographic constituencies desire.”

“Bottom line: Washington Prime Group is not a landlord in the antiquated sense of the word. Rather, we are a company which works proactively to improve our existing tenancy, attract differentiated concepts and use every darn square foot of our space to create the dynamism our guests deserve. Our tenants shouldn’t be confined to the four walls which demarcate their leased space. While I’m not saying any of this is easy, it is achievable. Now back to work as we continue to grind it out.”

Second Quarter Results

Net income attributable to common shareholders for the second quarter of 2017 was $135.5 million, or $0.72 per diluted share, compared to $17.8 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, a year ago. The year-over-year improvement was largely attributable to a net gain of $125.4 million primarily related to the formation of an additional joint venture with O’Connor Mall Partners, L.P., an affiliate of O’Connor Capital Partners (“O’Connor”), as well as a $21.2 million gain





recognized in conjunction with the discounted pay-off of a mortgage loan secured by Mesa Mall, located in Grand Junction, Colorado, both of which were completed during the second quarter of 2017. This compares to a net debt extinguishment gain of $34.1 million, partially offset by $29.9 million of merger, restructuring and transaction costs recorded during the second quarter of 2016.

Funds from Operations (“FFO”) for the second quarter of 2017 were $110.6 million, or $0.50 per diluted share. This compares to $98.1 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, during the same quarter a year ago. Results for the second quarter of 2017 include a gain on the extinguishment of debt of $21.2 million. Results for the second quarter of 2016 included $29.9 million of merger, restructuring and transaction costs, as well as a net extinguishment gain of $34.1 million. When excluding these items, adjusted FFO (“AFFO”) for the second quarter of 2017 was $89.4 million, or $0.40 diluted share, which compares to $94.0 million, or $0.43 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2016. This year-over-year decline relates primarily to the net dilution associated with the sale of five non-core assets and the transition to the lender of three Tier 2 encumbered assets since the beginning of the second quarter of 2016.

Comparable net operating income (“NOI”) for the Company’s total portfolio decreased 1.9% during the second quarter of 2017, compared to a year ago. Comparable NOI growth for the Company’s 37 Tier 1 enclosed retail properties was relatively flat during the second quarter of 2017, compared to a year ago, demonstrating stable performance. Comparable NOI for the Company’s 51 community centers increased 2.8% in the second quarter of 2017, compared to a year ago. Collectively, the Company’s Tier 1 enclosed retail properties and community centers comprise 80% of total portfolio NOI.

Reconciliations of FFO, AFFO and comparable NOI (non-GAAP measures) to GAAP measures are included in this release.

Operational Highlights

Ending occupancy for the total portfolio was 92.3% as of June 30, 2017, as compared to 93.0% a year ago. Ending occupancy for the enclosed retail properties was relatively flat compared to a year ago, which includes Tier 1 enclosed retail properties which ended the quarter at 92.6%, an increase of 30 basis points. Ending occupancy for the community center portfolio was 95.0% as of June 30, 2017, compared to 96.5% a year ago.

Base rent per square foot for the total portfolio was $21.63, an increase of 0.1%, compared to a year ago. Inline store sales at the Company’s enclosed retail properties were $368 per square foot for the twelve months ended June 30, 2017, compared to $376 per square foot for the same period a year ago. Operating metrics by asset group can be found in the second quarter 2017 Supplemental Information report available on the Company’s website.

Financial Activity

O’Connor Joint Venture

During the second quarter, the Company completed the formation of a second joint venture with O’Connor. The seven properties in the joint venture are: Arbor Hills located in Ann Arbor, Michigan; Classen Curve/Nichols Hills Plaza/The Triangle at Classen Curve (“Oklahoma City Properties”) located in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; Gateway Center located in Austin, Texas; Malibu Lumber Yard, located in Malibu, California; Palms Crossing located in McAllen, Texas; The Arboretum located in Austin, Texas; and The Shops at Arbor Walk located in Austin, Texas. The transaction valued the properties at $598.6 million before additional closing adjustments and debt assumptions.

Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, the Company retained a non-controlling 51% interest in the joint venture and sold the remaining 49% to O'Connor. The transaction generated net proceeds to the Company of approximately $350.8 million (including net proceeds from the new mortgage loans on The Arboretum, Gateway Centers, and Oklahoma City Properties), which were used to reduce the Company's outstanding debt and for general corporate purposes.







Dispositions

On May 16, 2017, the Company completed the sale of an 80,000 square foot vacant anchor parcel at Indian Mound Mall, located in Heath, Ohio, to an unaffiliated private real estate investor for a purchase price of approximately $0.8 million.

On June 7, 2017, the Company completed the sale of Morgantown Commons, located in Morgantown, West Virginia, to an unaffiliated private real estate investor for a purchase price of approximately $6.7 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of approximately $8.5 million related to the sale of Morgantown Commons.

Mortgage Loans

On April 25, 2017, the Company completed a discounted payoff of the $87.3 million mortgage loan secured by Mesa Mall, located in Grand Junction, Colorado for $63.0 million. The debt yield on the previous mortgage loan was approximately 9% with an effective yield on the reduced payoff of approximately 13%. This accretive financial transaction resulted in the Company retaining Mesa Mall, a dominant enclosed retail venue in a secondary market.

On May 10, 2017, and prior to the formation of the second joint venture with O’Connor, the Company closed on non-recourse mortgage loans encumbering The Arboretum, Gateway Centers, and Oklahoma City Properties. All three loans have a 10-year term with a blended interest rate of 4.0%. These loans were deconsolidated during the second quarter in connection with the joint venture with O’Connor.

Redevelopment Highlights

The Company continues to expect redevelopment spending, including the pro-rata share of joint venture properties of approximately $125 million in 2017. Major redevelopment projects recently announced include:
Markland Mall, located in Kokomo, Indiana - The approximately $17 million project is anchored by the addition of several new open air tenants. As part of the approximately 84,000-square-foot renovation, the Company is in discussions with new tenants for spaces that will be created in a former department store space. The high visibility anchor space was previously occupied by Sears which closed following a lease expiration. Potential new uses for replacing the former department store include big box retail, entertainment and grocery. In addition, redeveloped outparcel spaces will create the opportunity to add new restaurants. The project is expected to add approximately 10 new tenants and be completed in 2018.
Great Lakes Mall, located in Mentor, Ohio - The approximately $15 million project is anchored by the addition of a 50,000-square-foot Round 1, a fast-growing family entertainment concept. The Company also is in discussions with new tenants for a restaurant space that will be created adjacent to Round 1. The high-visibility anchor space was previously occupied by a Dillard’s Men’s Store. Dillard’s made the decision earlier this year to consolidate its stores at the center into a single renovated anchor space. In addition, a redeveloped outparcel will provide an opportunity to add a second new restaurant. The project is expected to be completed in 2018.
Classen Curve located in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma - The approximately $11.5 million expansion will add around 30,000 square feet to an already vibrant lifestyle center and is expected to open in two phases starting in the fourth quarter of 2017. As part of the expansion, Classen Curve will welcome several first-to-market retailers. The costs for the Classen Curve project will be shared pro rata with O’Connor, with Washington Prime Group funding 51% of the project spend.

2017 Guidance

The Company increased its guidance for fiscal 2017 net income attributable to common shareholders to the range of $1.19 to $1.27 per diluted share, and reaffirmed guidance for FFO, as adjusted, in the range of $1.64 and $1.70 per diluted share. The update to guidance for net income primarily relates to a gain on debt extinguishment previously projected to occur in 2018.






Primarily due to retailer bankruptcies that occurred during the second quarter of 2017, the Company now expects to deliver comparable NOI growth at the low end of its original guidance range of 0.0% to 1.5% for the year ending December 31, 2017. Apart from the impact from retailer bankruptcies, as well as the adjusted timing of an unsecured debt issuance, there were no other major changes to key guidance assumptions for 2017.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures





This press release includes FFO, AFFO and NOI, including same property NOI growth, which are financial performance measures not defined by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are included in this press release. FFO, AFFO and comparable NOI growth are financial performance measures widely used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs. The Company believes that FFO provides investors with additional information regarding operating performance and a basis to compare the Company’s performance with that of other REITs.

The Company uses FFO in addition to net income to report operating results. We determine FFO based on the definition set forth by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT) as net income computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding real estate related depreciation and amortization, excluding gains and losses from extraordinary items and cumulative effects of accounting changes, excluding gains and losses from the sales or disposals of previously depreciated retail operating properties, excluding impairment charges of depreciable real estate, plus the allocable portion of FFO of unconsolidated entities accounted for under the equity method of accounting based upon economic ownership interest. The Company also discusses FFO, as adjusted, or AFFO. Descriptions of items adjusted are provided in the press release. Certain items, such as merger, restructuring and transaction related costs and gain on debt extinguishment, while included in FFO and net income, do not affect the ongoing performance of the properties and have been excluded from AFFO to enhance comparability.

NOI is used by industry analysts, investors and Company management to measure operating performance of the Company’s properties. NOI represents total property revenues less property operating and maintenance expenses. Accordingly, NOI excludes certain expenses included in the determination of net income such as corporate general and administrative expense and other indirect operating expenses, interest expense, impairment charges and depreciation and amortization expense. These items are excluded from NOI in order to provide results that are more closely related to a property’s results of operations. In addition, the Company’s computation of same property NOI excludes termination income and income from outparcel sales. The Company also adjusts for other miscellaneous items in order to enhance the comparability of results from one period to another. Certain items, such as interest expense, while included in FFO and net income, do not affect the operating performance of a real estate asset and are often incurred at the corporate level as opposed to the property level. As a result, management uses only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level to evaluate a property’s performance. Real estate asset related depreciation and amortization, as well as impairment charges, are excluded from NOI for the same reasons that they are excluded from FFO pursuant to NAREIT’s definition.

Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as they do not include all items of income and expense that affect operations, and accordingly, should always be considered as supplemental to financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. Investors should understand that the Company’s computation of these non-GAAP measures might not be comparable to similar measures reported by other REITs and that these non-GAAP measures do not represent cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP, should not be considered as alternatives to net income determined in accordance with GAAP as a measure of operating performance and are not alternatives to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Investors are cautioned that items excluded from these measures are significant components in understanding and addressing financial performance. Reconciliations of these measures are included in the press release.

Regulation Fair Disclosure (FD)
The Company routinely posts important information online on the investor relations section of the corporate website. The Company uses this website, press releases, SEC filings, conference calls, presentations and webcasts to disclose material, non-public information in accordance with Regulation FD. The Company encourages members of the investment community to monitor these distribution channels for material disclosures.
