| (1) Sales are based on reports by retailers leasing outlet center stores for the trailing 12 months ended November 30, 2015 for tenants which have occupied such stores for a minimum of 12 months. |
| (2) % of Portfolio NOI is based on the company's forecast of 2015 property level net operating income which is defined as total operating revenues less property operating expenses and excludes termination fees and non-cash adjustments including straight-line rent, net above and below market rent amortization and gains or losses on sale of outparcels. The Company's forecast is based on management's estimates as of September 30, 2015. |
Tanger expects to record an approximate $5.0 million gain on the sale of the Fort Myers outlet center during the first quarter of 2016 and has elected not to defer any taxable gain on this transaction, as the transaction is currently not expected to have a significant impact on the company's 2016 taxable income. Tanger intends to use the proceeds from the sale of this unencumbered asset to pay down balances outstanding under its unsecured lines of credit.
"We are pleased to announce the sale of the seventh non-core asset we have divested over the last year. While the sale of the Fort Myers outlet center is expected to have an approximately $0.02 per share dilutive effect on net operating income in 2016, we believe that pruning the portfolio of assets that, while productive, may no longer meet our long term growth objectives, will improve Tanger's overall asset quality," said Steven B. Tanger, President and Chief Executive Officer.
"The sale that was finalized today brings a fresh outlook and local ownership to the center, which will be renamed Sanibel Outlets," said Ben Dahlmann, Senior Vice President of Dahlmann Properties.
