SANTA ANA, Calif., Feb. 15, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Grubb & Ellis Company (NYSE: GBE), a leading real estate services and investment firm, today reported fourth quarter 2010 revenue of $163.5 million, an increase of approximately 10 percent compared with revenue of $148.7 million in the same period a year ago.  For the full year 2010, Grubb & Ellis reported revenue of $575.5 million, compared with revenue of $527.9 million in 2009.

The net loss attributable to the company for the fourth quarter of 2010 was $10.7 million, or $0.21 per share.  In the comparable 2009 period, the company reported net income of $16.8 million, or $0.11 per share, primarily as a result of a gain of $21.9 million realized on the repayment of debt and $3.4 million of income from discontinued operations.  For 2010, the company reported a net loss of $66.8 million, or $1.21 per share, compared with a net loss of $78.8 million, or $1.27 per share, for the same period a year ago.

2010 Company Highlights

  • Total revenue up approximately 9 percent for the year, with Transaction Services up 36 percent.
  • Service platform enhanced through recruiting, business lines and new offices.
  • Grubb & Ellis Healthcare REIT II expanded selling agreements; December daily equity raise averaged nearly $950,000.
  • Reduced corporate overhead by $10 million.  
  • Strengthened balance sheet through $31.5 million convertible note offering and sale of non-core assets.

"Although we are generally pleased with our revenue performance for the fourth quarter and all of 2010, we clearly have more work to do to translate this revenue growth into profitability," said Thomas P. D'Arcy, president and chief executive officer of Grubb & Ellis.  "We have expanded our platform, extended our service offerings and increased the overall productivity of our brokerage sales force.  We expect this top line growth to continue, especially as our new brokerage professionals and service lines accelerate production and as the commercial real estate markets continue to strengthen.  Our focus for 2011 and beyond is to improve bottom line performance and continue to raise the bar on our commitment to client service and operational excellence."

Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (adjusted EBITDA) for the fourth quarter of 2010 was approximately breakeven, compared with adjusted EBITDA of $1.1 million in the same period a year ago.  Fourth quarter 2010 EBITDA was negatively impacted by legal costs associated with the Daymark segment.  For the full year 2010, the company reported negative adjusted EBITDA of $19.7 million, compared with negative adjusted EBITDA of $24.0 million in the same period a year ago.  The income and charges excluded from EBITDA to arrive at adjusted EBITDA are detailed in the table titled Reconciliation of Net (Loss) Income to Adjusted EBITDA following this release.

OPERATING SEGMENTS

Management Services

Management Services revenue includes asset and property management fees as well as reimbursed salaries, wages and benefits from the company's third-party property management and facilities outsourcing services.  Management Services revenue was $66.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2010, compared with $75.1 million for the same period a year ago.  As previously discussed, the company experienced a shift in the mix of business during 2010, which negatively impacted revenue in the second half of the year, despite continuing to grow square feet under management.  Full-year 2010 revenue for this segment was $274.6 million, compared with revenue of $274.9 million during the same period a year ago.  

During 2010, Grubb & Ellis was awarded six new outsourcing contracts, including the facilities and project management for a Fortune 100 financial services provider's more than 10-million-square-foot North America portfolio, one of the largest corporate outsourcing assignments awarded to a commercial real estate services provider last year.  The company also renewed and expanded the work it does for 14 corporate clients.  At Dec. 31, 2010, the company managed approximately 255 million square feet of commercial real estate and multifamily property, up from 241 million square feet a year earlier.

Transaction Services

Transaction Services revenue for the fourth quarter of 2010, including brokerage commission, valuation and consulting revenue, increased 45 percent to $79.4 million, from $54.6 million in the same period a year ago.  The mix between sales and leasing revenue was approximately 32 percent and 68 percent, respectively, in the fourth quarter of 2010.  Sales revenue increased 96 percent and leasing revenue was up 36 percent over the comparable year-ago period.

The Transaction Services segment generated revenue of $236.2 million during all of 2010, compared with $173.4 million in 2009.  For the full year, sales revenue increased 92 percent and leasing revenue was up 25 percent.  

The improved top-line performance in this segment reflects improving market conditions, greater transaction volume stemming from the company's recruiting efforts and a dedicated effort to promote specialty expertise.  During 2010, the company recruited 122 senior-level sales professionals and expanded into both the Debt & Equity and Appraisal businesses.  The Debt & Equity practice is staffed with 16 experienced professionals in key markets throughout the country, and Grubb & Ellis Landauer Valuation Advisory Services, which commenced operations in late 2010, began 2011 with 24 offices in 16 states and the District of Columbia.  The company also opened owned offices in Cincinnati, Phoenix and San Diego, and acquired its affiliates in Las Vegas and central Florida, which added offices in Orlando, Tampa and Melbourne.

Investment Management

Investment Management revenue for the fourth quarter of 2010, which includes transaction fees,  management fees and dealer-manager fees, totaled $7.3 million, compared with revenue of $7.5 million in the same period a year ago.  For the full year, Investment Management revenue was $21.3 million, compared with $30.4 million in the same period a year earlier.  During the fourth quarter, Grubb & Ellis Healthcare REIT II raised $47.9 million in equity, a 42 percent sequential increase from the third quarter of 2010.

Daymark

On Feb. 10, Grubb & Ellis announced the creation of Daymark Realty Advisors, a wholly owned and separately managed subsidiary, to assume management of the company's entire tenant-in-common programs, which were previously managed by NNN Realty Advisors, Inc., another wholly owned subsidiary of the company.  Daymark, which will be the direct parent of NNN Realty Advisors, will provide specialized management services to tenant-in-common investors.

Revenue for this new reporting segment totaled $6.2 million for the fourth quarter, compared with $5.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2009.  The segment reported full-year revenue of $21.9 million, compared with $26.7 million in 2009.  

Daymark becomes one of the largest real estate asset management companies in the country, serving more than 5,200 investors and overseeing a nationwide portfolio of commercial property totaling approximately 33 million square feet, including more than 8,700 multifamily units.  Daymark will be based in Santa Ana with regional offices in Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Phoenix and Richmond, Va.

Conference Call & Webcast

Management will host a conference call today at 10:30 a.m. Eastern Time to review the results.  A live webcast will be accessible through the Investor Relations section of the company's website at http://www.grubb-ellis.com.  The direct dial-in number for the conference call is 1.866.730.5766 for domestic callers and 1.857.350.1590 for international callers.  The conference call ID number is 53546086.  An audio replay will be available beginning at 1:30 p.m. ET on Tuesday, Feb. 15 until 7 p.m. ET on Tuesday, Feb. 22 and can be accessed by dialing 1.888.286.8010 for domestic callers and 1.617.801.6888 for international callers and entering conference call ID 32756062.  In addition, the conference call audio will be archived on the company's website following the call.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements included in this press release may constitute forward-looking statements. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the company's actual results and events in future periods to be materially different from those anticipated, including risks and uncertainties related to the financial markets. Such factors which could adversely affect the company's ability to obtain these results include, among other things: (i) a continued or further weakness in the company's Investment Management business, including the velocity and volume of equity raised; (ii) the general economic downturn and recessionary pressures on transaction values of sales and leasing transactions and businesses in general; (iii) a prolonged and pronounced recession in real estate markets and values; (iv) the unavailability of credit to finance real estate transactions in general and the company's tenant-in-common programs, in particular; (v) the success of current and new investment programs; (vi) the success of new initiatives and investments; (vii) the inability to attain expected levels of revenue, performance, brand equity in general, and in the current macroeconomic and credit environment, in particular; (viii) the inability of the company's subsidiary, NNN Realty Advisors, Inc. to come into compliance with the contractually specified net worth requirements with respect to approximately 30 percent of the tenant-in-common programs managed by the company; (ix) the nature and amount of the net intercompany balance between the company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, NNN Realty Advisors, Inc., (x) the occurrence of bankruptcies by unaffiliated, individual investor entities in the company's tenant-in-common programs which may result in demands for payments on certain non-recourse/carve-out guaranty and indemnification obligations issued by the company's subsidiaries, which may, in turn, in the event such guaranty or indemnification obligations cannot be met, result in a cross-default under the company's issued and outstanding Convertible Senior Notes; (xi) the ultimate outcome in various legal proceedings concerning tenant-in-common programs sponsored by the company's subsidiaries, including the arbitration proceeding with respect to the Met 10 Center in Texas; and (xii) other factors described in the company's annual report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009, Form 10-Q for the three-month periods ending March 31, 2010, June 30, 2010 and September 30, 2010 and in other Current Reports on Form 8-K filed by the company from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

(1) EBITDA represents earnings before net interest expense, interest income, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, discontinued operations and impairments related to intangible assets. Management believes EBITDA is useful in evaluating our performance compared to that of other companies in our industry because the calculation of EBITDA generally eliminates the effects of financing and income taxes and the accounting effects of capital spending and acquisition, which items may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance.

Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as an internal management measure for evaluating performance and as a significant component when measuring performance under employee incentive programs. Management considers Adjusted EBITDA an important supplemental measure of our performance and believes that it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry, some of which present Adjusted EBITDA when reporting their results. Management also believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful tool for measuring our ability to meet its future capital expenditures and working capital requirements.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures of performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not substitutes for GAAP net income or cash flow and do not provide a measure of our ability to fund future cash requirements. Other companies may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we have and, therefore, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have material limitations as a comparative performance measure. Furthermore, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for management's discretionary use, as they do not consider certain cash requirements such as tax and debt service payments.
