DuPont Fabros Technology, Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2009 Results
Revenues up 16%
WASHINGTON, Aug. 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- DuPont Fabros Technology, Inc. (NYSE: DFT) today reported results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009. All per share results are reported on a fully diluted basis.
Highlights
- Executed two leases totaling 12.46 megawatts at facilities in Ashburn, Virginia and Elk Grove Village, Illinois subsequent to the end of the second quarter, representing approximately $275 million of total contract value over the respective lease terms. CH1 Phase I is now 48% leased, and ACC5 Phase II is now 38% leased.
- Funds From Operations ("FFO") of $0.28 per share for second quarter of 2009, which was in the upper half of guidance range.
- Raised the lower end of 2009 FFO per share guidance range by $0.09 per share to $1.05 to $1.12 per share.
- Raised the lower end of 2009 required dividend payout per share guidance by $0.03 per share to $0.20 to $0.26 per share.
Hossein Fateh, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, said, "During the second quarter, we continued to focus on leasing, operations and completing our ACC5 Phase I development. As of today, we have executed two new leases and completed the development of ACC5 Phase I, which adds 18% of critical load to our operating portfolio. The leases executed to date support our expected unleveraged returns on investment of 12% at Phase I of CH1 and 15% at ACC5. We achieved a solid quarter of earnings and tightened our full-year guidance toward the high end of our original plan. While the overall economy and debt markets remain challenging, we believe we are well positioned to execute on our growth-oriented business plan for the remainder of this year and into 2010."
Second Quarter 2009 Results
For the quarter ended June 30, 2009, the Company reported earnings per share of $0.08 compared to $0.17 for the second quarter of 2008. Revenues increased 16%, or $6.8 million, to $48.9 million for the second quarter of 2009 over the second quarter of 2008. The overall decrease in earnings per share is primarily due to higher interest expense, which is attributable to higher debt balances and lower capitalized interest, and increased depreciation and amortization, offset by $0.01 per share increase in operating revenue in the current quarter.
FFO per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 was $0.28 compared to $0.35 for the quarter ending June 30, 2008. The $0.07 per share decrease is primarily due to higher interest expense, as referenced.
Six months ended June 30, 2009
For the six months ended June 30, 2009, the Company reported earnings per share of $0.13 compared to $0.32 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. Revenues increased 15%, or $12.5 million, to $95.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 over the six months ended June 30, 2008. The overall decrease in earnings per share is primarily attributable to higher interest expense, which is due to higher debt balances and lower capitalized interest, and increased depreciation and amortization in the current period.
FFO per share for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was $0.54 compared to $0.69 for the corresponding period in 2008. The $0.15 per share decrease is primarily due to higher interest expense, as referenced.
Portfolio Update/Status
Subsequent to the end of the second quarter of 2009, the Company executed two new leases totaling 12.46 megawatts of critical load and 69,700 raised square feet with an average lease term of 10.6 years. This represents approximately $275 million of contract value to the Company.
- One lease was signed at CH1 Phase I in Elk Grove Village, Illinois representing 5.63 megawatts of critical load and 36,700 raised square feet.
- One pre-lease was signed at ACC5 Phase II in Ashburn, Virginia comprising 6.83 megawatts of critical load and 33,000 raised square feet with a January 1, 2011 move-in date. An option of moving the lease to Phase I is available if the Company does not build ACC5 Phase II. Under such circumstances, Phase I would be 95% leased.
As of the date of this press release, the Company's stabilized operating portfolio's critical load is 100% leased. CH1 Phase I, currently in lease-up, is 48% leased, ACC5 Phase I is 57% leased and ACC5 Phase II is 38% pre-leased.
Liquidity
The Company has no debt maturities until the third quarter of 2011 assuming the election of the extension options on the Company's line of credit and the loans secured by ACC5 and SC1. As of today, the Company has approximately $15 million of unrestricted cash and $20 million available on its revolving credit facility, as well as $10 million of restricted cash available for funding of Phase I of ACC5 construction costs.
Development Update
The Company has obtained the certificate of occupancy and commissioning report for ACC5 Phase I. The building was designed and constructed to obtain LEED gold certification.
The Company's developments in New Jersey and Santa Clara remain temporarily suspended as the Company continues to work to obtain pre-leasing and financing in order to restart both developments. As of June 30, 2009, construction costs payable includes total committed costs of approximately $13 million on NJ1 and SC1, which the Company expects will be paid by the end of the calendar year. The Company is actively pursuing additional funds for development. The commencement of development of Phase II of ACC5 is subject to obtaining adequate funding and approval of the Board of Directors.
Dividend
In order to preserve liquidity, the Company did not declare a dividend for the first or second quarter of 2009 and will not declare a third quarter dividend. The Company continues to evaluate when to pay the 2009 dividend. The Company is increasing its 2009 REIT distribution requirement estimate by $0.03 per share to $0.20 to $0.26 per share.
2009 Guidance
The Company has established an FFO guidance range of $0.27 to $0.30 per share for the third quarter of 2009 and is reaffirming and tightening its annual FFO guidance range by $0.09 per share from $0.96 to $1.12 per share to $1.05 to $1.12 per share. The assumptions underlying this guidance are outlined on page 15 of this press release.

========== ========== ========== ==========
(1) Funds from operations, or FFO, is used by industry analysts and
investors as a supplemental operating performance measure for REITs.
We calculate FFO in accordance with the definition that was adopted by
the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate
Investment Trusts, or NAREIT. FFO, as defined by NAREIT, represents
net income determined in accordance with GAAP, excluding extraordinary
items as defined under GAAP and gains or losses from sales of
previously depreciated operating real estate assets, plus specified
non-cash items, such as real estate asset depreciation and
amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships
and joint ventures.
We use FFO as a supplemental performance measure because, in excluding
real estate related depreciation and amortization and gains and losses
from property dispositions, it provides a performance measure that,
when compared year over year, captures trends in occupancy rates,
rental rates and operating expenses. We also believe that, as a widely
recognized measure of the performance of equity REITs, FFO will be
used by investors as a basis to compare our operating performance with
that of other REITs. However, because FFO excludes real estate related
depreciation and amortization and captures neither the changes in the
value of our properties that result from use or market conditions nor
the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to
maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which
have real economic effects and could materially impact our results
from operations, the utility of FFO as a measure of our performance is
limited.
While FFO is a relevant and widely used measure of operating
performance of equity REITs, other equity REITs may use different
methodologies for calculating FFO and, accordingly, FFO as disclosed
by such other REITs may not be comparable to our FFO. Therefore, we
believe that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of our
historical operating results, FFO should be examined in conjunction
with net income as presented in the consolidated statements of
operations. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net
income or to cash flow from operating activities (each as computed in
accordance with GAAP) or as an indicator of our liquidity, nor is it
indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our
ability to pay dividends or make distributions.
We also present FFO with a supplemental adjustment which we call
Adjusted FFO ("AFFO"). AFFO is FFO excluding straight-line revenue,
non-cash stock based compensation, unrealized gain or loss on
derivative instruments, acquisition of service agreements, below
market lease amortization net of above market lease amortization and
early extinguishment of debt costs. AFFO does not represent cash
generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and
therefore should not be considered an alternative to net income as an
indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash
flow provided by operations as a measure of liquidity and is not
necessarily indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs
including our ability to pay dividends. In addition, AFFO may not be
comparable to similarly titled measurements employed by other
companies. Our management uses AFFO in management reports to provide a
measure of REIT operating performance that can be compared to other
companies using AFFO.

(1) Funds from operations, or FFO, is used by industry analysts and
investors as a supplemental operating performance measure for REITs.
We calculate FFO in accordance with the definition that was adopted by
the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate
Investment Trusts, or NAREIT. FFO, as defined by NAREIT, represents
net income determined in accordance with GAAP, excluding extraordinary
items as defined under GAAP and gains or losses from sales of
previously depreciated operating real estate assets, plus specified
non-cash items, such as real estate asset depreciation and
amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships
and joint ventures.
We use FFO as a supplemental performance measure because, in excluding
real estate related depreciation and amortization and gains and losses
from property dispositions, it provides a performance measure that,
when compared year over year, captures trends in occupancy rates,
rental rates and operating expenses. We also believe that, as a widely
recognized measure of the performance of equity REITs, FFO will be
used by investors as a basis to compare our operating performance with
that of other REITs. However, because FFO excludes real estate related
depreciation and amortization and captures neither the changes in the
value of our properties that result from use or market conditions nor
the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to
maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which
have real economic effects and could materially impact our results
from operations, the utility of FFO as a measure of our performance is
limited.
While FFO is a relevant and widely used measure of operating
performance of equity REITs, other equity REITs may use different
methodologies for calculating FFO and, accordingly, FFO as disclosed
by such other REITs may not be comparable to our FFO. Therefore, we
believe that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of our
historical operating results, FFO should be examined in conjunction
with net income as presented in the consolidated statements of
operations. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net
income or to cash flow from operating activities (each as computed in
accordance with GAAP) or as an indicator of our liquidity, nor is it
indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our
ability to pay dividends or make distributions.
