Piedmont Office Realty Trust Reports Third Quarter 2018 Results
ATLANTA, October 30, 2018 --Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc. ("Piedmont" or the "Company") (NYSE:PDM), an owner of Class A office properties in select sub-markets located primarily within eight major Eastern U.S. office markets, today announced its results for the quarter ended September 30, 2018.
Highlights for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2018:
• | Reported Net Income Applicable to Common Stockholders of $0.13 per diluted share; |
• | Achieved Core Funds From Operations ("Core FFO") of $0.45 per diluted share; |
• | Reported an 8.5% increase in Same Store NOI- Cash Basis as compared to the third quarter of 2017; |
• | Completed over 613,000 square feet of leasing, approximately three-fourths of which related to new leases for currently vacant space, including a new full building lease in Houston; |
• | Entered into a binding contract to sell the Company's last remaining West Coast asset, 800 North Brand Boulevard, for $160.0 million; and |
• | Replaced its existing $500 Million Unsecured 2015 Line of Credit with a new, more favorably priced, $500 Million Unsecured Line of Credit and amended and restated its $300 Million Unsecured 2011 Term Loan to extend the term and decrease the stated interest rate spread over LIBOR. |
Commenting on the Company's results, Donald A. Miller, CFA, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "The third quarter was one of our best quarters since our IPO. We posted strong financial results, including increases in occupancy levels, rental rates, and portfolio-wide leasing activity during the quarter. Specifically, we completed over 613,000 square feet of leasing, including a significant inaugural lease in Houston, as well as 87,000 square feet of new leasing related to vacant space in our Washington, D.C. portfolio, to end the quarter at 93% leased for our in-service portfolio. Further, we placed our last West Coast asset under contract to sell and completed some key financing activity. Overall, we are very pleased with our third quarter results from a number of different perspectives and hope to sustain that momentum during the last quarter of the year."
Results for the Quarter ended September 30, 2018
Piedmont recognized net income applicable to common stockholders for the three months ended September 30, 2018 of $16.1 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, as compared with net income of $126.1 million, or $0.87 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The three months ended September 30, 2017 included approximately $113.2 million, or $0.77 per diluted share, of gains on sales of both a wholly-owned property, as well as an equity interest in a joint venture, whereas the current quarter had no sales or related gains. The current quarter's results reflect increased operating income as a
result of higher overall occupancy in the portfolio in the current period and the operational results of a property acquired during the first quarter of 2018.
Funds From Operations ("FFO") and Core FFO, which remove the impact of the gains on sales mentioned above (as well as depreciation and amortization), were both $0.45 per diluted share for the three months ended September 30, 2018, as compared with $0.42 per diluted share for the three months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $0.03 per diluted share, despite significant net disposition activity since July 1, 2017. In addition to higher occupancy levels and increased rental rates, the increase in both FFO and Core FFO per diluted share is also attributable to a 16.9 million share decrease in our weighted average shares outstanding as a result of share repurchase activity pursuant to the Company's stock repurchase program during the twelve months ended September 30, 2018.
Total revenues and property operating costs were $129.7 million and $49.7 million, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $137.6 million and $54.5 million, respectively, for the third quarter of 2017, with the decrease in both items primarily attributable to the net property sales mentioned above, partially offset by increases due to increased rental rates and occupancy in the portfolio.
General and administrative expense was $6.7 million for the third quarter of 2018 compared to $6.2 million for the same period in 2017, with the $0.5 million increase primarily attributable to increased accruals for potential performance-based compensation.
The gain on sale of real estate assets of $109.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2017 related to the sale of Two Independence Square, one of the Company's largest wholly-owned assets at the time of the sale, located in Washington, D.C.
Leasing Update
The Company's completed leasing for the third quarter totaled 613,200 square feet, with approximately three-fourths of that activity related to new leases for currently vacant space. The Company's largest lease completed during the quarter was in Houston where a major oilfield services provider signed an almost 17-year, full-building lease for the Company’s newly constructed, 300,000 square foot Enclave Place. Other activity was robust and well-diversified throughout each of the Company's markets. Highlights included the following:
• | In Washington, D.C. - Reservoir International executed a 29,000 square foot new lease through 2023 and Rapid7, Inc. completed an approximately 17,000 square foot new lease through 2024, both at Arlington Gateway; Global Connections to Employment, Inc. completed a 15,000 square foot new lease through 2028 at 3100 Clarendon Boulevard; Applied Predictive Technologies completed a 12,000 square foot lease expansion through 2028 at 4250 North Fairfax Drive; |
• | In Atlanta - Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Financing, LLC renewed their approximately 18,000 square feet through 2024; and R-T Specialty, LLC executed a renewal and expansion totaling over 17,000 square feet through 2026 at Glenridge Highlands II; |
• | In Dallas - Switch Commerce, LLC renewed their approximately 15,000 square feet at 6565 North MacArthur Blvd. through 2024; |
• | In Boston - TZ Insurance Solutions LLC executed a new lease for 15,000 square feet at 80 Central Street, through 2029; |
• | In Minneapolis - Health Catalyst, Inc. completed an almost 13,000 square foot new lease through 2024 at Crescent Ridge II; and |
• | In Los Angeles - Children’s Hospital Los Angeles signed an approximately 26,000 square foot lease expansion through 2026 at 800 North Brand Boulevard. |
The Company's reported leased percentage and weighted average lease term were approximately 93.2% and 6.7 years, respectively, as of September 30, 2018, as compared to 89.2% and 6.5 years, respectively, as of September 30, 2017. The Company has no significant lease expirations for the remainder of 2018. Same Store NOI increased 8.5% on a cash basis and 6.5% on an accrual basis for the three months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2017. Same Store NOI on a cash basis was favorably impacted by the expiration of several large lease abatements and favorable tax appeals at certain properties. Same Store NOI on an accrual basis was additionally favorably impacted by the commencement of several large leases throughout the portfolio. Details outlining Piedmont's largest upcoming lease expirations, the status of certain major leasing activity, and a schedule of the largest lease abatement periods can be found in the Company's quarterly supplemental information package available at www.piedmontreit.com.
Transactional and Financing Update
During the three months ended September 30, 2018, Piedmont entered into a binding contract to sell 800 North Brand Boulevard to a third party for approximately $160.0 million. 800 North Brand Boulevard is an approximately 527,000 square foot, 21-story, 90% leased, office building constructed in 1990. The sale is expected to close during the fourth quarter of 2018 and will complete Piedmont’s exit from the West Coast.
Additionally during the third quarter, Piedmont replaced its existing $500 Million Unsecured 2015 Line of Credit with a new $500 million unsecured line of credit facility priced as of closing at LIBOR plus 90 basis points, a 10 basis point decrease. Further, Piedmont amended and restated its $300 Million Unsecured 2011 Term Loan to extend its maturity date by 22 months, from January 15, 2020 to November 30, 2021. In addition to extending the Company's next significant upcoming debt maturity, the primary rationale for the extension was to include the possibility of five, seven, and ten year debt structures in the Company's available future refinancing options. Additionally, the amendment and restatement decreased the stated interest rate spread as of closing by 15 basis points to 1.0% over LIBOR.
Subsequent to quarter end, Piedmont purchased 9320 Excelsior Boulevard, Hopkins, MN, for $49.4 million, representing a substantial discount to replacement cost and a 10% cap rate on a GAAP and cash basis. 9320 Excelsior Boulevard is a 7-story, approximately 268,000 square foot, Class AA office building situated on 5.84 acres in close proximity to Piedmont's Norman Pointe I building acquired in 2017. 9320 Excelsior Boulevard is 100% leased to Cargill, Inc.
Fourth Quarter 2018 Dividend Declaration
On October 30, 2018, the board of directors of Piedmont declared dividends for the fourth quarter of 2018 in the amount of $0.21 per share on its common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on November 30, 2018, payable on January 3, 2019.
Promotion of C. Brent Smith to President & Chief Investment Officer
On October 30, 2018, the board of directors of Piedmont promoted Chief Investment Officer, C. Brent Smith, to President and Chief Investment Officer of the Company. Mr. Smith has served Piedmont as Chief Investment Officer since 2016. Mr. Donald A. Miller, Chief Executive Officer, will continue to serve in that capacity. Mr. Smith will report to Mr. Miller and work with him on corporate strategy and take a broader role across the Company’s platform.
Guidance for 2018
The Company has narrowed its previously announced guidance for full-year 2018 based upon year-to-date results, the acquisition of 9320 Excelsior Boulevard, and the anticipated sale of 800 North Brand in the fourth quarter of 2018. Management's current expectations are as follows:
(in millions, except per share data) | Low | High | ||||
Net Income | $95 | - | $97 | |||
Add: | ||||||
Depreciation | 109 | - | 111 | |||
Amortization | 61 | - | 62 | |||
Less: Gain on Sale of Real Estate Assets | (45 | ) | - | (46) | ||
NAREIT FFO applicable to Common Stock | $ | 220 | - | $224 | ||
NAREIT FFO per diluted share | $1.68 | - | $1.71 | |||
Less: Loss on Extinguishment of Debt | $2 | - | $2 | |||
Core FFO applicable to Common Stock | $ | 222 | - | $226 | ||
Core FFO per diluted share | $1.70 | - | $1.73 | |||
These estimates reflect management's view of current market conditions and incorporate certain economic and operational assumptions and projections. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates based on a variety of factors, particularly the timing of any future acquisitions and dispositions as well as those factors discussed under "Forward Looking Statements" below.
Note that individual quarters may fluctuate on both a cash basis and an accrual basis due to lease commencements and expirations, abatement periods, the timing of repairs and maintenance, capital expenditures, capital markets activities, seasonal general and administrative expenses, accrued potential performance-based compensation expenses, and one-time revenue or expense events. In addition, the Company's guidance is based on information available to management as of the date of this release.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the presentation of the Company’s financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), this release and the accompanying quarterly supplemental information as of and for the period ended September 30, 2018 contain certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, including FFO, Core FFO, AFFO, Same Store NOI (cash and accrual basis), Property NOI (cash and accrual basis), EBITDAre, and Core EBITDA. Definitions and reconciliations of each of these non-GAAP measures to their most comparable GAAP metrics are included below and in the accompanying quarterly supplemental information.
Each of the non-GAAP measures included in this release and the accompanying quarterly supplemental financial information has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of the Company’s results calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because not all companies use identical calculations, the Company’s presentation of non-GAAP measures in this release and the accompanying quarterly supplemental information may not be comparable to similarly titled measures disclosed by other companies, including other REITs. The Company may also change the calculation of any of the non-GAAP measures included in this news release and the accompanying supplemental financial information from time to time in light of its then existing operations.

(1) Includes adjustments for consolidated properties and for our proportionate share of amounts attributable to unconsolidated joint ventures.
(2) Excludes depreciation of non real estate assets.
(3) Capital expenditures of a recurring nature related to tenant improvements and leasing commissions that do not incrementally enhance the underlying assets' income generating capacity. Tenant improvements, leasing commissions, building capital and deferred lease incentives incurred to lease space that was vacant at acquisition, leasing costs for spaces vacant for greater than one year, leasing costs for spaces at newly acquired properties for which in-place leases expire shortly after acquisition, improvements associated with the expansion of a building and renovations that change the underlying classification of a building are excluded from this measure.
*Definitions:
Funds From Operations ("FFO"): The Company calculates FFO in accordance with the current National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) definition. NAREIT currently defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of property and impairment losses, adding back depreciation and amortization on real estate assets, and after the same adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. These adjustments can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it excludes the effects of depreciation, amortization and gains or losses from sales of real estate, all of which are based on historical costs, which implicitly assumes that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time. The Company also believes that FFO can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and with other REITs. However, other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of FFO may not be comparable to that of such other REITs. |
Core Funds From Operations ("Core FFO"): The Company calculates Core FFO by starting with FFO, as defined by NAREIT, and adjusting for gains or losses on the extinguishment of swaps and/or debt, acquisition-related expenses (that are not capitalized) and any significant non-recurring items. Core FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Core FFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it excludes the effects of certain items which can create significant earnings volatility, but which do not directly relate to the Company’s core business operations. As a result, the Company believes that Core FFO can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and provides a more meaningful predictor of future earnings potential. Other REITs may not define Core FFO in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Core FFO may not be comparable to that of other REITs. |
Adjusted Funds From Operations ("AFFO"): The Company calculates AFFO by starting with Core FFO and adjusting for non-incremental capital expenditures and acquisition-related costs (that are not capitalized) and then adding back non-cash items including: non-real estate depreciation, straight-lined rents and fair value lease adjustments, non-cash components of interest expense and compensation expense, and by making similar adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. AFFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that AFFO is helpful to investors as a meaningful supplemental comparative performance measure of our ability to make incremental capital investments. Other REITs may not define AFFO in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of AFFO may not be comparable to that of other REITs. |

(1) Includes amounts attributable to consolidated properties and our proportionate share of amounts attributable to unconsolidated joint ventures.
(2)Other investments consist of our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, active redevelopment and development projects, land, and recently completed redevelopment and development projects for which some portion of operating expenses were capitalized during the current or prior reporting periods. The operating results from 500 TownPark in Lake Mary, Florida, and Two Pierce Place in Itasca, IL are included in this line item.
*Definitions:
EBITDAre: The Company calculates EBITDAre in accordance with the current National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) definition. NAREIT currently defines EBITDAre as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) adjusted for gains or losses from sales of property, impairment losses, depreciation on real estate assets, amortization on real estate assets, interest expense and taxes, along with the same adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Some of the adjustments mentioned can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates. EBITDAre is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that EBITDAre is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it provides a metric for understanding the Company’s results from ongoing operations without taking into account the effects of non-cash expenses (such as depreciation and amortization) and capitalization and capital structure expenses (such as interest expense and taxes). The Company also believes that EBITDAre can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and with other REITs. However, other REITs may not define EBITDAre in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of EBITDAre may not be
comparable to that of such other REITs.
Core EBITDA: The Company calculates Core EBITDA as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and incrementally removing any impairment losses, gains or losses from sales of property and other significant infrequent items that create volatility within our earnings and make it difficult to determine the earnings generated by our core ongoing business. Core EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Core EBITDA is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it provides a metric for understanding the performance of the Company’s results from ongoing operations without taking into account the effects of non-cash expenses (such as depreciation and amortization), as well as items that are not part of normal day-to-day operations of the Company’s business. Other REITs may not define Core EBITDA in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Core EBITDA may not be comparable to that of other REITs.
Property Net Operating Income ("Property NOI"): The Company calculates Property NOI by starting with Core EBITDA and adjusting for general and administrative expense, income associated with property management performed by Piedmont for other organizations and other income or expense items for the Company, such as interest income from loan investments or costs from the pursuit of non-consummated transactions. The Company may present this measure on an accrual basis or a cash basis. When presented on a cash basis, the effects of straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue are also eliminated. Property NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Property NOI is helpful to investors as a supplemental comparative performance measure of income generated by its properties alone without the administrative overhead of the Company. Other REITs may not define Property NOI in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Property NOI may not be comparable to that of other REITs.
Same Store Net Operating Income ("Same Store NOI"): The Company calculates Same Store NOI as Property NOI attributable to the properties for which the following criteria were met during the entire span of the current and prior year reporting periods: (i) they were owned, (ii) they were not under development / redevelopment, and (iii) none of the operating expenses for which were capitalized. Same Store NOI also excludes amounts attributable to unconsolidated joint venture and land assets. The Company may present this measure on an accrual basis or a cash basis. When presented on a cash basis, the effects of straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue are also eliminated. Same Store NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Same Store NOI is helpful to investors as a supplemental comparative performance measure of the income generated from the same group of properties from one period to the next. Other REITs may not define Same Store NOI in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Same Store NOI may not be comparable to that of other REITs.
