One Liberty Properties, Inc. (
"The Company continued to execute effectively on its pursuit of selective and accretive growth in 2012," commented Patrick J. Callan, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer of One Liberty. "With 17 properties acquired the past two years combined with the profitable sales of non-core assets, we continue to enhance our real estate portfolio. These efforts resulted in a recent increase in our dividend. Over the last two years, the Company has reduced its credit line interest rate floor significantly and it enters 2013 at a rate of 4.75%. As we look ahead, we are continuing to pursue opportunities that will increase the value of the Company, but will remain disciplined and selective in our approach as we seek to both protect and increase stockholder value."
Fourth Quarter Operating Results:
Total rental revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2012 increased $690,000 or 6.3% to $11.56 million, from $10.87 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011. Rental revenues benefited from the contribution of One Liberty's 2012 and 2011 acquisitions.
Net income attributable to One Liberty was $4.93 million or $0.33 per fully diluted share, an increase of 59.5% from $3.09 million or $0.21 per fully diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2011. The increase is attributable to $2.28 million or $0.16 per fully diluted share of income from discontinued operations related primarily to gains from strategic dispositions of properties acquired at favorable prices. Income from continuing operations in the fourth quarter of 2012 was $2.63 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, compared to $2.83 million, or $0.19 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2011. The change is due primarily to higher real estate acquisition costs and federal excise and state taxes incurred in the current quarter.
One Liberty generated Funds from Operations ("FFO") of $5.84 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2012, as compared to $5.71 million or $0.39 per diluted share in the corresponding period of 2011. A reconciliation of GAAP amounts to non-GAAP amounts is presented with the financial information included in this release.
The per share results for the three months ended December 31, 2012 were impacted by the increase in the weighted average number of shares outstanding which increased due to share issuances under One Liberty's equity incentive, at the market equity offering and dividend reinvestment programs.
Full Year 2012 Operating Results:
Total rental revenues increased 7.0% to $44.75 million compared to $41.81 million for 2011. Rental revenues increased due to the impact of acquisitions in 2012 and 2011.
Net income attributable to One Liberty increased 136% to $32.32 million, or $2.16 per diluted share in 2012, from $13.72 million, or $0.96 per diluted share in 2011. The increase is due primarily to an increase in income from discontinued operations and to a lesser extent to an increase in income from continuing operations.
Income from discontinued operations, related primarily to gains from strategic dispositions of properties increased in the current year to $20.45 million or $1.37 per fully diluted share from $2.15 million or $0.16 per fully diluted share in the prior year. Specifically, this increase is due to the gain of $19.41 million from the sale in 2012 of five properties.
Income from continuing operations increased to $11.86 million, or $0.79 per diluted share, from $11.57 million, or $0.80 per diluted share, in 2011. Contributing to the increase were increases in, among other things, rental revenues, equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures, and gain on sale of real estate. Partially offsetting the increase were increases in depreciation and amortization expense, real estate acquisition expense and federal excise and state taxes and the inclusion in 2011 of a $1.24 million gain on settlement of debt.
FFO for 2012 was $23.78 million, or $1.59 per diluted share, compared to 2011 FFO of $22.83 million, or $1.61 per diluted share.
The per share results for 2012 were impacted by the increase in the weighted average number of shares outstanding which increased due to share issuances under One Liberty's equity incentive, at the market equity offering and dividend reinvestment programs.
Balance Sheet:
At December 31, 2012, the Company had $14.6 million of cash and cash equivalents, total assets of $481.2 million, total debt of $226 million and total equity of $238.1 million.
At March 12, 2013, One Liberty's available liquidity, including the $6 million it is required to maintain pursuant to the credit facility, was approximately $91 million, including approximately $16 million of cash and cash equivalents and $75 million available under its credit facility.
March 2013:
One Liberty is in the process of selling, for approximately $13.5 million, its 90% interest in a joint venture redevelopment of a 6.2 acre site in Plano, Texas, following its decision not to pursue this project with its joint venture partner. The joint venture partner exercised its right to purchase One Liberty's equity interest in the joint venture. One Liberty anticipates that the sale will be completed in 2013.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
One Liberty believes that Funds from Operations ("FFO") is a widely recognized and appropriate measure of the performance of an equity REIT. One Liberty presents FFO because it considers FFO to be an important supplemental measure of One Liberty's operating performance. One Liberty believes FFO is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs, many of which present FFO when reporting their results. FFO is intended to exclude generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") historical cost depreciation and amortization of real estate and related assets, which assumes that the value of real estate diminishes ratably over time. Historically, however, real estate values have risen or fallen with market conditions. As a result, FFO provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, development activities, interest costs and other matters without the inclusion of depreciation and amortization, providing perspective that may not necessarily be apparent from net income.
One Liberty has determined FFO in accordance with standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. ("NAREIT"). FFO is defined by NAREIT as net income (or loss) computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, plus impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. Management believes this is appropriate and relevant to securities analysts, investors and other interested parties and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures as reported by others.
