Macerich Announces Quarterly Results Including FFO Guidance Increase, Dividend Increase And Strong Operating Performance
SANTA MONICA, Calif., Oct. 28, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- The Macerich Company (NYSE Symbol: MAC) today announced results of operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 which included funds from operations ("FFO") diluted of $132.5 million or $.88 per share-diluted compared to $129.6 million or $.86 per share-diluted for the quarter ended September 30, 2013. Net income attributable to the Company was $35.9 million or $.25 per share-diluted for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 compared to net income attributable to the Company for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 of $38.1 million or $.27 per share-diluted. A description and reconciliation of FFO per share-diluted to EPS-diluted is included in the financial tables accompanying this press release.
Recent Highlights:
- Mall tenant annual sales per square foot for the portfolio increased 4.0% for the year ended September 30, 2014 to $571 compared to $549 for the year ended September 30, 2013. On a comparable mall basis tenant sales increased to $569 up from $567 at September 30, 2013.
- The releasing spreads for the year ended September 30, 2014 were up 20.5%.
- Mall portfolio occupancy was 95.6% at September 30, 2014 compared to 93.7% at September 30, 2013. On a same center basis, occupancy was up 1.3% at 95.6% compared to 94.3% at September 30, 2013.
- During the quarter the Company entered into a joint venture to redevelop The Gallery mall in downtown Philadelphia.
- The Company announced the sale of South Towne Center in Sandy, Utah.
- On October 23, 2014 the Company increased the quarterly dividend to $.65 per share.
Commenting on the quarter, Arthur Coppola chairman and chief executive officer of Macerich stated, "It was another solid quarter for us, as we maintained our positive leasing momentum, recording both further occupancy gains and continued double-digit releasing spreads. We also continued to execute on our strategy of fine-tuning the portfolio through opportunistic dispositions of non-core assets with the proceeds recycled into our highly value-creative redevelopment pipeline. Within the pipeline, we made additional pre-leasing progress across the various in-process projects and added to our stable of future projects with the July acquisition of a 50% joint venture position in The Gallery."
Developments:
At Tysons Corner Center, the Company's 2.1 million square foot super regional mall, construction continues on the multifamily and hotel components of this mixed use project which will add 1.4 million square feet to one of the country's premier retail centers. The Tysons expansion includes a 527,000 square foot office tower with major tenants Intelsat and Deloitte which opened in August. The office building is currently over 74% leased. A 30-story, 430-unit luxury residential tower; and a 300-room Hyatt Regency hotel are under construction with completion slated in early 2015. A new Metro station, contiguous and connected to the center, opened in July, 2014.
At Fashion Outlets of Niagara Falls, a 175,000 square foot expansion is in progress. The expansion is currently 84% leased and the center is 91% leased. The project is now open with a grand opening celebration set for November 6, 2014.
At Santa Monica Place, the Company has obtained final City approvals to proceed with the addition of a 48,000 square foot ArcLight Cinemas which is expected to be completed in fall 2015.
At Broadway Plaza, in Walnut Creek, California, a major redevelopment, including a 235,000 square foot expansion is underway. This 776,000 square foot mall (pre-expansion) is anchored by Macy's, Nordstrom and Neiman Marcus and in 2013 had over $725 per square foot in annual tenant sales. The expansion will open in phases starting in fall 2015.
At both Los Cerritos Center and Scottsdale Fashion Square, expansions are underway to add a Dick's Sporting Goods store and a Harkins Theatre. Both projects are slated for completion in the second half of 2015.
Acquisitions:
In July, the Company announced a joint venture partnership to redevelop The Gallery in downtown Philadelphia. Under the terms of the agreement, Macerich acquired a 50% common ownership interest in The Gallery for $106.5 million. Macerich and PREIT will jointly handle the development, leasing and management of The Gallery. Costs related to the future development will be split 50/50 between the companies.
The Gallery, consisting of approximately 1,400,000 square feet of retail and office space, is located in the heart of Philadelphia, strategically positioned where mass transit, tourism, the residential population and employment base converge. The joint venture redevelopment is expected to build upon the offerings of the previously announced Century 21 anchor transaction and realize the partnerships vision to create Philadelphia's only transit-oriented, retail anchored, multi-use property offering accessible luxury retailing and artisan food experiences.
Dispositions:
The Company is under contract to sell South Towne Center in Sandy, Utah for $205 million. The 1.2 million square foot mall has annual tenant sales of $344 per square foot. The transaction is expected to close in early November 2014. This disposition is consistent with the Company's stated strategy of selling non-core assets and redeploying the proceeds into its development pipeline.

THE MACERICH COMPANY | ||||||
|
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS | ||||||
|
(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS) | ||||||
|
(a) |
In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued guidance that amends the definition of discontinued operations by limiting discontinued operations reporting to disposals that represent strategic shifts that have, or will have, a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results. Previously, the Company had reported all disposed properties as discontinued operations. The Company early adopted this accounting pronouncement in the first quarter of 2014. As a result, the Company's results of operations for all 2014 property disposals are presented within income from continuing operations in the consolidated statements of operations. | |||||
|
(b) |
This represents the outside partners' allocation of net income in the Chandler Fashion Center/Freehold Raceway Mall joint venture. | |||||
|
(c) |
The Macerich Partnership, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership" or the "OP") has operating partnership units ("OP units"). OP units can be converted into shares of Company common stock. Conversion of the OP units not owned by the Company has been assumed for purposes of calculating FFO per share and the weighted average number of shares outstanding. The computation of average shares for FFO - diluted includes the effect of share and unit-based compensation plans, stock warrants and convertible senior notes using the treasury stock method. It also assumes conversion of MACWH, LP preferred and common units to the extent they are dilutive to the calculation. | |||||
|
(d) |
The Company uses FFO in addition to net income to report its operating and financial results and considers FFO and FFO-diluted as supplemental measures for the real estate industry and a supplement to Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") measures. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") defines FFO as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from extraordinary items and sales of depreciated operating properties, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization, impairment write-downs of real estate and write-downs of investments in an affiliate where the write-downs have been driven by a decrease in the value of real estate held by the affiliate and after adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. | |||||
|
FFO and FFO on a diluted basis are useful to investors in comparing operating and financial results between periods. This is especially true since FFO excludes real estate depreciation and amortization, as the Company believes real estate values fluctuate based on market conditions rather than depreciating in value ratably on a straight-line basis over time. The Company believes that such a presentation also provides investors with a more meaningful measure of its operating results in comparison to the operating results of other real estate investment trusts ("REITs"). The Company believes that FFO on a diluted basis is a measure investors find most useful in measuring the dilutive impact of outstanding convertible securities. The Company further believes that FFO does not represent cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP, should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) as defined by GAAP, and is not indicative of cash available to fund all cash flow needs. The Company also cautions that FFO as presented, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other REITs. | ||||||

(e) |
EBITDA represents earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, noncontrolling interests, extraordinary items, gain (loss) on remeasurement, sale or write down of assets and preferred dividends and includes joint ventures at their pro rata share. Management considers EBITDA to be an appropriate supplemental measure to net income because it helps investors understand the ability of the Company to incur and service debt and make capital expenditures. The Company believes that EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to operating income as an indicator of the Company's operating performance, or to cash flows from operating activities (as determined in accordance with GAAP) or as a measure of liquidity. The Company also cautions that EBITDA, as presented, may not be comparable to similarly titled measurements reported by other companies. | ||||
|
(f) |
The Company presents same center NOI because the Company believes it is useful for investors to evaluate the operating performance of comparable centers. Same center NOI is calculated using total EBITDA and subtracting out EBITDA from non-comparable centers and eliminating the management companies and the Company's general and administrative expenses. Same center NOI excludes the impact of straight-line and above/below market adjustments to minimum rents. | ||||
