BOSTON PROPERTIES ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER 2020 RESULTS; REPORTS EPS OF $1.71 AND FFO PER SHARE OF $1.52
Signs 942,000 Square Feet of Leasing in Q2; Reports July Office Tenant Collections of 98% Reflecting Ongoing Strength in Collections
BOSTON, MA, July 28, 2020 - Boston Properties, Inc. (NYSE: BXP), the largest publicly-traded developer, owner and manager of Class A office properties in the United States, reported results today for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020.
Financial highlights for the second quarter include:
•Net income attributable to common shareholders of $266.5 million, or $1.71 per diluted share (EPS), compared to $164.3 million, or $1.06 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2019. The increase in EPS in the second quarter of 2020 was primarily due to gains on asset sales of $1.21 per diluted share, offset by a $0.24 per share charge to revenue related to the write-off of accrued rent and accounts receivable of tenants primarily in the retail sector.
•Funds from Operations (FFO) of $236.9 million, or $1.52 per diluted share, compared to FFO of $276.3 million, or $1.78 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in FFO in the second quarter of 2020 was largely due to a $0.24 per share charge to revenue related to the write-off of accrued rent and accounts receivable of tenants primarily in the retail sector.
Second quarter and recent business highlights include:
•Completed 942,000 square feet of leases and renewals, including a new, 12-year lease with Microsoft Corporation for approximately 400,000 square feet at Reston Town Center in Reston, Virginia.
•Collected more than 98% of its total rent payments from office tenants due July 1. This follows collections from office tenants of 98% in the second quarter of 2020. Rent collections from all commercial tenants, including retail, were 95% in total in July.
•Completed and fully placed in-service 20 CityPoint, a 211,000 square foot Class A office development in Waltham, Massachusetts that is 62% leased.
•Completed two asset sales including:
◦Approximately 455,000 square feet of Capital Gallery, a Class A office complex in Washington, DC for a gross sale price of approximately $254 million. Boston Properties will retain ownership of the remaining 176,000 square feet of the property, which is approximately 100% leased and includes 156,000 square feet of office space, 20,000 square feet of retail and a 465-space parking garage. The Company realized net proceeds of approximately $247 million from the sale and a reported gain on sale of approximately $204 million in the quarter.
◦Annapolis Junction Building Eight, a 125,700 square foot vacant office building and two parcels of land at Annapolis Junction Business Park in Annapolis Junction, Maryland that was sold for a gross sale price of $47 million. The Company had a 50% interest in the Annapolis Junction properties. The Company realized net proceeds of

approximately $15 million from the sale after closing costs and the repayment of mortgage debt on the property. The Company recognized a gain on sale of real estate totaling approximately $5.8 million in the quarter.
•Completed the acquisition of property at 777 Harrison Street in San Francisco, California for a purchase price of approximately $140.1 million. 777 Harrison Street, known as Fourth + Harrison, is a fully-entitled site that can support the development of approximately 804,000 square feet of primarily office space.
•Completed a $1.25 billion bond offering of 3.250% unsecured senior notes due 2031 on May 5, 2020.
•Refinanced the mortgage loan collateralized by Metropolitan Square, a 654,000 square foot Class A office property in Washington, DC in which the Company has a 20% interest. The outstanding balance of the loan was approximately $155.9 million and was scheduled to mature on August 5, 2020. The new mortgage financing totals $325.0 million, of which $288.0 million was advanced at closing, and matures on July 7, 2022 with two, one-year extension options. Excess loan proceeds from the new mortgage loan were approximately $112.7 million, of which the Company’s share was approximately $22.5 million.
Separately the Company announced today the acquisition of a 50% interest in Beach Cities Media Center, a 6.4-acre land site on the Rosecrans Corridor of the El Segundo submarket of Los Angeles, California for a purchase price of $21.2 million. The site is fully entitled to support the future development of approximately 275,000 square feet of Class A creative office space. In conjunction with the acquisition, BXP entered into a joint venture with Continental Development Corporation (Continental), a premier developer and owner of Class A properties primarily in the El Segundo and Manhattan Beach submarkets with more than 500 tenants across its portfolio. The Beach Cities Media Center site is located on Rosecrans Avenue, one of the most in-demand creative office nodes in the South Bay of Los Angeles. The site is adjacent to Continental Park, an existing 3.0 million square foot, 86-acre office and mixed-use campus, which is home to several Fortune 500 and emerging office tenants in the technology, entertainment and financial sectors. Further details can be found in the press release issued today.

(1)Pursuant to the revised definition of Funds from Operations adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”), we calculate Funds from Operations, or “FFO,” by adjusting net income (loss) attributable to Boston Properties, Inc. common shareholders (computed in accordance with GAAP) for gains (or losses) from sales of properties, impairment losses on depreciable real estate consolidated on our balance sheet, impairment losses on our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures driven by a measurable decrease in the fair value of depreciable real estate held by the unconsolidated joint ventures and real estate-related depreciation and amortization. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure, but we believe the presentation of FFO, combined with the presentation of required GAAP financial measures, has improved the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and has helped make comparisons of REIT operating results more meaningful. Management generally considers FFO and FFO per share to be useful measures for understanding and comparing our operating results because, by excluding gains and losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets, impairment losses and real estate asset depreciation and amortization (which can differ across owners of similar assets in similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates), FFO and FFO per share can help investors compare the operating performance of a company’s real estate across reporting periods and to the operating performance of other companies.
Our computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs or real estate companies that do not define the term in accordance with the current Nareit definition or that interpret the current Nareit definition differently.
In order to facilitate a clear understanding of the Company’s operating results, FFO should be examined in conjunction with net income attributable to Boston Properties, Inc. common shareholders as presented in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. FFO should not be considered as a substitute for net income attributable to Boston Properties, Inc. common shareholders (determined in accordance with GAAP) or any other GAAP financial measures and should only be considered together with and as a supplement to the Company’s financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
