Current report

From July 1, 2023 to July 26, 2024, the Company has generated approximately $1.8 billion of gross proceeds from sales of grocery anchored, lifestyle, net lease and power center properties. Prior to the spin-off of Curbline, the Company expects to sell additional properties for the purpose of acquiring additional convenience properties, capitalizing Curbline and, together with proceeds from the closing of the Mortgage Facility, redeeming and/or repaying all of the Company’s outstanding unsecured indebtedness. The Company has received significant interest from a wide variety of private and institutional investors for the properties it has marketed for sale to date in 2024, which it believes is attributable to the quality of its portfolio, leasing prospects and the elevated cost to construct competing retail space. The Company expects that the volume of disposition activity will remain elevated in the third quarter of 2024, though asset sale closings remain subject to a number of uncertainties including capital markets conditions and the completion of buyer due diligence.

Current report

In the event the Company is able to complete such asset sales, it expects that rental income and net income in subsequent periods will likely decrease, though the extent of any such reduction will depend on several factors including the manner in which the Company uses sale proceeds. The Company expects that its future dividend policy will be influenced by operations, the anticipated spin-off of Curbline and future asset sales, though the Company’s distribution of sale proceeds to shareholders will be subject to restrictions set forth in the terms of the Company’s indebtedness and preferred stock financings and management of liquidity and overall leverage levels in connection with ongoing operations.

Previous wording

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the decrease in net income attributable to common shareholders, as compared to the prior-year period, primarily was the result of the impact of net property dispositions and impairment charges partially offset by the gain on disposition of real estate recognized in 2024 and an increase in interest income.

Current wording

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the increase in net income attributable to common shareholders, as compared to the prior-year period, primarily was the result of the gains from dispositions of real estate recognized in 2024 and an increase in interest income partially offset by the impact of net property dispositions, the write-off of fees related to the Mortgage Facility commitment, Curbline transaction costs and impairment charges (each as defined below).

Previous wording

In October 2023, the Company announced a plan to spin off its convenience assets into a separate, publicly traded REIT to be named Curbline Properties Corp. (“Curbline”) in recognition of the distinct characteristics and opportunities within the Company’s unanchored and grocery and power center portfolios. Convenience properties are positioned on the curbline of well-trafficked intersections, offering enhanced access and visibility relative to other retail property types. The properties generally consist of a homogeneous row of primarily small-shop units along with dedicated parking leased to a diversified mixture of national and local service and restaurant tenants that cater to daily convenience trips from the growing suburban population. The property type’s site plan and depth of leasing prospects generally reduce operating capital expenditures and provide significant tenant diversification.

Current wording

In October 2023, the Company announced a plan to spin off its convenience assets into a separate, publicly traded REIT to be named Curbline Properties Corp. (“Curbline”) in recognition of the distinct characteristics and opportunities within the Company’s unanchored and grocery and power center portfolios. Convenience properties are generally positioned on the curbline of well-trafficked intersections, and major vehicular corridors, offering enhanced access and visibility along with dedicated parking. The properties generally consist of a homogeneous row of primarily small-shop units leased to a diversified mixture of national and local service and restaurant tenants that cater to daily convenience trips from the growing suburban population. The property type’s site plan and depth of leasing prospects that can utilize existing square footage generally reduce operating capital expenditures relative to other retail real estate formats and provide significant tenant diversification.

Previous wording

In addition, in October 2023, the Company obtained a financing commitment for a $1.1 billion mortgage facility (the “Mortgage Facility”) which is expected to close prior to the consummation of the spin-off with loan and additional asset sale proceeds expected to be used to repay all of the Company’s outstanding unsecured indebtedness, including all outstanding public notes. In the first quarter of 2024, the Company released two properties that had previously been identified to serve as collateral for the facility, thereby reducing the committed amount to $1.0 billion as of March 31, 2024. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company wrote-off $0.7 million of fees to Other Income (Expense), net, on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations because the maximum amount to be borrowed decreased as it related to assets that were identified in the commitment to serve as collateral for the Mortgage Facility but were subsequently released.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company wrote-off $9.3 million of fees to Other Income (Expense), net, on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations because the maximum amount available to be borrowed under the Mortgage Facility decreased as a result of the release of assets that were originally identified in the lender’s commitment to serve as collateral for the Mortgage Facility.

Previous wording

The Company intends to acquire additional convenience properties prior to the spin-off that will be included in the Curbline portfolio, funded through additional Company dispositions, retained cash flow and cash on hand. Following the separation of Curbline, the Company intends to realize value through operations and, depending on market conditions, the sale of additional assets. The timing of certain sales may be impacted by interim leasing, tactical redevelopment activities and other asset management initiatives intended to maximize value.

Previous wording

Curbline is expected to be in a net cash position at the time of its separation from the Company with cash on hand, a preferred investment in the Company, and an unsecured, undrawn line of credit.

Current wording

Previous wording

For the comparable leases executed in the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company generated cash lease spreads on a pro rata basis of 11.5% for new leases and 8.0% for renewals.

The Company’s cash lease spreads calculation includes only those deals that were executed within one year of the date the prior tenant vacated, in addition to other factors that limit comparability, and as a result, is a useful benchmark to compare the average annualized base rent of expiring leases with the comparable executed market rental rates;

Previous wording

The Company believes that certain charges, income and gains recorded in its operating results are not comparable or reflective of its core operating performance. Operating FFO is useful to investors as the Company removes non-comparable charges, income and gains to analyze the results of its operations and assess performance of the core operating real estate portfolio. As a result, the Company also computes Operating FFO and discusses it with the users of its financial statements, in addition to other measures such as net income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP and FFO. Operating FFO is generally defined and calculated by the Company as FFO excluding certain charges, income and gains/losses that management believes are not comparable and indicative of the results of the Company’s operating real estate portfolio. Such adjustments include write-off of preferred share original issuance costs, gains/losses on the early extinguishment of debt, certain transaction fee income, transaction costs and other restructuring type costs, including employee separation costs. The disclosure of these adjustments is regularly requested by users of the Company’s financial statements.
