PPS Post Properties, Inc. (delisted)

Post Properties, Inc. (NYSE: PPS) announced today a net loss attributable to common shareholders of $(27.0) million for the second quarter of 2008, compared to net income available to common shareholders of $62.0 million for the second quarter of 2007. On a diluted per share basis, the net loss attributable to common shareholders was $(0.61) for the second quarter of 2008, compared to net income available to common shareholders of $1.40 for the second quarter of 2007. The net loss attributable to common shareholders was $(26.2) million for the six months ended June 30, 2008, compared to net income available to common shareholders of $84.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. On a diluted per share basis, the net loss attributable to common shareholders was $(0.60) for the six months ended June 30, 2008, compared to net income available to common shareholders of $1.91 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The Company�s net loss attributable to common shareholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 included (i) non-cash impairment charges of approximately $28.9 million attributable to the substantial cessation of current development activities associated with four land parcels in pre-development discussed below which were written down to their estimated fair market values, as well as the write off of capitalized pursuit costs associated with abandoned projects; and (ii) severance charges of $0.4 million associated with the elimination of certain employment positions in the second quarter of 2008. The Company eliminated additional employment positions in July 2008 and, as a result, recognized additional severance charges of approximately $1.6 million in the third quarter of 2008. The net loss attributable to common shareholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 also included a charge of approximately $2.1 million and $8.2 million, respectively, related to the process to seek a potential sale of the Company. The Board formally concluded that process without a business combination or other sale transaction on June 25, 2008. The Company�s reported net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders included net gains on the sales of apartment communities (including a proportionate 75% gain on the sale of a 75% interest in two apartment communities to a joint venture in 2007) of $55.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and $2.3 million and $72.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The Company uses the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (�NAREIT�) definition of Funds from Operations (�FFO�) as an operating measure of the Company�s financial performance. A reconciliation of FFO to GAAP net income is included in the financial data (Table 1) accompanying this press release. FFO for the second quarter of 2008 was a deficit of $(12.6) million, or $(0.29) per diluted share, compared to FFO of $22.1 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2007. The Company�s reported FFO for the second quarter of 2008 included the charges in the aggregate of approximately $31.4 million, or $0.71 per diluted share, discussed above. The Company�s reported FFO for the second quarter of 2007 included a net gain of approximately $1.7 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, on the sale of a land site in Dallas, Texas, offset by non-cash compensation expense of approximately $0.9 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, related to a variable compensation plan. FFO for the six months ended June 30, 2008 totaled $1.3 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, compared to $42.8 million, or $0.95 per diluted share, for the first six months of 2007. The Company�s reported FFO for the six months ended June 30, 2008 included the charges in the aggregate of approximately $37.5 million, or $0.84 per share, discussed above. The Company�s reported FFO for the six months ended June 30, 2007 included net gains of approximately $3.9 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, on the sale of land sites in Atlanta, Georgia and Dallas, Texas. Said David P Stockert, President and Chief Executive Officer, �We are taking the steps necessary to adjust our business plan to the realities of difficult current economic and financial market conditions. We have reduced the size and risk of our development pipeline and assessed the carrying value of our assets in order to maintain the strength of our balance sheet. With Post�s portfolio of high-quality, well located properties, moderate leverage and adequate liquidity, we believe we are positioned to navigate successfully this point in the economic cycle and to enhance the value of our business as conditions improve.� Conclusion of Strategic Process and Commitment to Strategies to Enhance Shareholder Value On January 23, 2008, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had authorized management, working with financial and legal advisors, to initiate a formal process to pursue a potential sale or other business combination and to seek proposals from potentially interested parties. After conducting a thorough process, the Board ended the process on June 25, 2008 due to the increasingly difficult market environment and a lack of definitive proposals. At the same time, the Board reaffirmed its commitment to actively pursue other strategies to enhance shareholder value through the following strategies: Realizing value through asset sales, the proceeds of which can be used to repay debt, pay potential special dividends or repurchase shares, and fund committed investments: The Company is currently, or expects to commence, marketing for sale eight apartment communities from which it currently expects to realize gross proceeds of approximately $500 million. The communities, comprising 2,615 apartment units, include five communities, with an average age of 16 years, located in Atlanta, Georgia, one 18-year old community, located in the northern Virginia submarket of greater Washington, D.C., and the Company�s only two communities located in New York City. As of June 30, 2008, all eight communities were classified on the Company�s balance sheet as held for sale. The Company�s ability to sell these apartment communities will be dependent on the sales market for multifamily assets and the continued availability of financing at terms attractive to potential buyers. The Company currently expects to use the proceeds to repay debt, pay potential special dividends or repurchase shares of its common stock and fund its committed investments. See �Development, Disposition and Other Investment Activity � Disposition Activity� for further discussion. Cutting costs by reducing corporate overhead, development and property management expenses: The Company is taking steps to reduce overhead expenses, including the elimination of 24 property management, corporate and development employment positions as of July 31, 2008 and certain other positions though attrition, which the Company currently expects will reduce overhead costs prospectively on an annual basis by approximately $3 million. As discussed above, the Company recognized severance charges relating to these job eliminations in the second and third quarters of 2008. There can be no assurance that the Company will not recognize additional severance charges in the third quarter of 2008 or in future periods. Focusing the Company by evaluating the number of markets within which it operates, and the appropriate size of its development pipeline: After an evaluation of its development pipeline in light of difficult current market conditions, the Company has decided to defer further activities on four of its development projects: Allen Plaza I in Atlanta, Georgia, the third phase of Post Lake� at Baldwin Park in Orlando, Florida, Post Soho Square� in Tampa, Florida, and Post Walk� at Citrus Park Village in Tampa, Florida which is also currently held for sale. The Company also decided to abandon the pursuit of its Post Plaza South� development project in Charlotte, North Carolina and to terminate its purchase contract to acquire that site. The total projected development costs of these projects totaled more than $430 million. As discussed above, the Company recognized non-cash impairment charges relating to these decisions in the second quarter of 2008. As discussed above, the Company has also decided to exit the New York market through the sale of its two high-rise apartment communities located in Manhattan. Pursuing construction loan financing and joint venture equity to fund development activity: The Company�s share of its active development pipeline is currently less than $500 million, with approximately $280 million of estimated construction costs that remain to be funded (approximately $250 million, excluding committed construction loan financing). The Company expects primarily to fund its active development pipeline using asset sale proceeds and available borrowing capacity under its unsecured revolving lines of credit. The Company is also currently pursuing potential construction loan financing and joint venture equity to fund its development pipeline and future project starts that are currently in pre-development. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to attract construction loan financing and joint venture equity on terms that are attractive. If unable to do so, the Company expects to postpone projects currently in pre-development. Mature (Same Store) Community Data For the second quarter of 2008, average economic occupancy at the Company�s 36 mature (same store) communities, containing 13,693 apartment units, was 93.8%, compared to 94.1% for the second quarter of 2007. Total revenues for the mature communities increased 2.6% during the second quarter of 2008, compared to the second quarter of 2007, and operating expenses increased 6.6%, producing a 0.1% decrease in same store net operating income (�NOI�). The average monthly rental rate per unit increased 2.3% during the second quarter of 2008, compared to the second quarter of 2007. Property tax, maintenance and utility expenses accounted for a majority of the increase in operating expenses. On a sequential basis, total revenues for the mature communities increased 1.3% and operating expenses increased 5.9% producing a 1.7% decrease in same store NOI for the second quarter of 2008, compared to the first quarter of 2008, or $0.5 million. On a sequential basis, the average monthly rental rate per unit increased 0.4%. Property tax and maintenance expenses accounted for a majority of the sequential increase in operating expenses. For the second quarter of 2008, average economic occupancy at the mature communities was 93.8%, compared to 94.3% for the first quarter of 2008. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, average economic occupancy at the Company�s mature communities was 94.1% compared to 94.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Total revenues for the mature communities increased 2.7% during the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2007, and operating expenses increased 5.2% producing a 1.1% increase in same store NOI, or $0.7 million. The average monthly rental rate per unit increased 2.6% during the six months ended June 30, 2008, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2007. Same store NOI is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure. A reconciliation of same store NOI to the comparable GAAP financial measure is included in the financial data (Table 2) accompanying this press release. Same store NOI by geographic market is also included in the financial data (Table 3) accompanying this press release. Development, Dispositions and Other Investment Activity Development Activity The Company today announced that it has completed the lease-up of the latest phase of its Post Hyde Park� community in Tampa, Florida, consisting of 84 units. The Company also announced today that it has ceased further development activities at its Post Walk� at Citrus Park Village community in Tampa, Florida, which had not yet commenced substantial physical construction. As of June 30, 2008, this community was classified on the Company�s balance sheet as held for sale. As of June 30, 2008, the Company�s aggregate pipeline of development projects under construction totaled approximately $525.2 million (including the Company�s share, net of joint venture partner interests, of $479.4 million). The Company also owns land for which it is in pre-development with respect to approximately 1,822 rental apartment units and approximately 133,000 square feet of retail amenities. Total projected future development costs of this pre-development pipeline are estimated to be approximately $380 million. There can be no assurance that projects in pre-development will commence construction in the future or at all or that actual development costs will approximate estimated costs. The start of future developments will depend in large part on local market conditions, the Company�s ability to generate asset sale proceeds and the Company�s ability to attract potential construction loan financing and joint venture equity to fund development activities on terms that management believes are attractive. If unable to do so, the Company expects to postpone projects currently in pre-development. Disposition Activity The Company is currently, or expects to commence, marketing for sale the eight apartment communities discussed above. Gross proceeds from the sales of these eight communities are currently expected to be approximately $500 million. There can be no assurance that the gross proceeds will be realized or that these sales will close. Apartment Community Renovation Program The Company is currently undertaking substantial renovations and re-leasing of three apartment communities, containing 1,226 units located in Atlanta, Georgia and Dallas, Texas. The Company believes that the long-term value of these communities will be enhanced as a result of the renovations; however, operating results at these communities is affected negatively by increased vacancy during the renovation period. As of June 30, 2008, the renovation of Post Chastain�, containing 558 units, in Atlanta, Georgia was complete. The community is expected to reach stabilized occupancy later in 2008. As of June 30, 2008, the Company had completed the renovation of 106 units (15.9% of the total) at Post Peachtree Hills� and Post Heights�. The renovation of these communities began earlier in 2008. Condominium Activity The Company recognized approximately $1.4 million of incremental losses, or $0.03 per diluted share, on condominium sales, net of minority interest, in FFO during the second quarter of 2008, compared to incremental gains of approximately $2.6 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, during the second quarter of 2007. The Company provides additional information on its condominium activities on page 17 of its Supplemental Financial Data. The Company�s reported net loss on condominium sales in FFO during the second quarter of 2008 was primarily attributable to revised estimates reflecting the Company�s current expectations of total sales and costs for ongoing condominium projects through their expected sell-out, and reflects the Company�s current view of sales prices and trends, the residential and condominium housing markets, the current state of the credit markets, as well as general economic conditions. Financing Activity Total debt and preferred equity as a percentage of undepreciated real estate assets (adjusted for joint venture partners� share of debt) was 43.6% at June 30, 2008, and variable rate debt as a percentage of total debt was 13.6% as of that same date. As of June 30, 2008, the Company had outstanding borrowings of approximately $144 million on its combined $630 million unsecured lines of credit. Computations of debt ratios and reconciliations of the ratios to the appropriate GAAP measures in the Company�s financial statements are included in the financial data (Table 4) accompanying this press release. Third Quarter and Full Year 2008 Same Store NOI Outlook The estimates and assumptions presented below are forward-looking and are based on the Company�s current and expected future view of the apartment market and general economic conditions as well as other risks outlined below under the caption "Forward Looking Statements." There can be no assurance that the Company's actual results will not differ materially from the estimates set forth below. The Company assumes no obligation to update this guidance in the future. For the third quarter of 2008, the Company expects that same store NOI will increase in the range of 1.1% to 2.1%, compared to the third quarter of 2007, based on: -- An increase in same store revenue of 1.1% to 1.5% -- An increase in same store operating expenses of 0.8% to 1.2%. The Company also expects that sequential same store NOI will increase in the third quarter of 2008 in the range of 3.2% to 4.2%, compared to the second quarter of 2008, based on: -- An increase in same store revenue of 1.1% to 1.5% -- A decrease in same store operating expenses of 1.8% to 2.2%. For the full year of 2008, the Company expects that same store NOI will increase (decrease) in the range of (0.1%) to 0.4%, compared to the full year of 2007, based on: -- An increase in same store revenue of 1.8% to 2.1% -- An increase in same store operating expenses of 4.7% to 5.0%. As announced in the first quarter, the Company will not provide earnings and FFO guidance for the third quarter and full year 2008. Supplemental Financial Data The Company also produces Supplemental Financial Data that includes detailed information regarding the Company�s operating results and balance sheet. This Supplemental Financial Data is considered an integral part of this earnings release and is available on the Company�s website. The Company�s Earnings Release and the Supplemental Financial Data are available through the investor relations/financial reports/quarterly and other reports section of the Company�s website at www.postproperties.com. The ability to access the attachments on the Company�s website requires the Adobe Acrobat 4.0 Reader, which may be downloaded at http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep.html. Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Defined Terms The Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures and other defined terms in this press release and in its Supplemental Financial Data available on the Company�s website. The non-GAAP financial measures include FFO, Adjusted Funds from Operations (�AFFO�), net operating income, same store capital expenditures, and certain debt statistics and ratios. The definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures are summarized below and on page 23 of the Supplemental Financial Data. The Company believes that these measures are helpful to investors in measuring financial performance and/or liquidity and comparing such performance and/or liquidity to other REITs. Funds from Operations � The Company uses FFO as an operating measure. The Company uses the NAREIT definition of FFO. FFO is defined by NAREIT to mean net income (loss) available to common shareholders determined in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from extraordinary items and sales of depreciable operating property, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, and after adjustment for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures all determined on a consistent basis in accordance with GAAP. FFO presented in the Company�s press release and Supplemental Financial Data is not necessarily comparable to FFO presented by other real estate companies because not all real estate companies use the same definition. The Company�s FFO is comparable to the FFO of real estate companies that use the current NAREIT definition. Accounting for real estate assets using historical cost accounting under GAAP assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. NAREIT stated in its April 2002 White Paper on Funds from Operations that �since real estate asset values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors have considered presentations of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves.� As a result, the concept of FFO was created by NAREIT for the REIT industry to provide an alternate measure. Since the Company agrees with the concept of FFO and appreciates the reasons surrounding its creation, the Company believes that FFO is an important supplemental measure of operating performance. In addition, since most equity REITs provide FFO information to the investment community, the Company believes that FFO is a useful supplemental measure for comparing the Company�s results to those of other equity REITs. The Company believes that the line on its consolidated statement of operations entitled �net income available to common shareholders� is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to FFO. Adjusted Funds From Operations � The Company also uses adjusted funds from operations (�AFFO�) as an operating measure. AFFO is defined as FFO less operating capital expenditures and after adjusting for the impact of non-cash straight-line, long-term ground lease expense, non-cash impairment charges and strategic review costs. The Company believes that AFFO is an important supplemental measure of operating performance for an equity REIT because it provides investors with an indication of the REIT�s ability to fund its operating capital expenditures through earnings. In addition, since most equity REITs provide AFFO information to the investment community, the Company believes that AFFO is a useful supplemental measure for comparing the Company to other equity REITs. The Company believes that the line on its consolidated statement of operations entitled �net income available to common shareholders� is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to AFFO. Property Net Operating Income � The Company uses property NOI, including same store NOI and same store NOI by market, as an operating measure. NOI is defined as rental and other revenues from real estate operations less total property and maintenance expenses from real estate operations (exclusive of depreciation and amortization). The Company believes that NOI is an important supplemental measure of operating performance for a REIT�s operating real estate because it provides a measure of the core operations, rather than factoring in depreciation and amortization, financing costs and general and administrative expenses generally incurred at the corporate level. This measure is particularly useful, in the opinion of the Company, in evaluating the performance of geographic operations, same store groupings and individual properties. Additionally, the Company believes that NOI, as defined, is a widely accepted measure of comparative operating performance in the real estate investment community. The Company believes that the line on its consolidated statement of operations entitled �net income� is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to NOI. Same Store Capital Expenditures � The Company uses same store annually recurring and periodically recurring capital expenditures as cash flow measures. Same store annually recurring and periodically recurring capital expenditures are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that same store annually recurring and periodically recurring capital expenditures are important indicators of the costs incurred by the Company in maintaining its same store communities on an ongoing basis. The corresponding GAAP measures include information with respect to the Company�s other operating segments consisting of communities stabilized in the prior year, lease-up communities, rehabilitation properties, sold properties and commercial properties in addition to same store information. Therefore, the Company believes that the Company�s presentation of same store annually recurring and periodically recurring capital expenditures is necessary to demonstrate same store replacement costs over time. The Company believes that the most directly comparable GAAP measure to same store annually recurring and periodically recurring capital expenditures are the lines on the Company�s consolidated statements of cash flows entitled �annually recurring capital expenditures� and �periodically recurring capital expenditures.� Debt Statistics and Debt Ratios � The Company uses a number of debt statistics and ratios as supplemental measures of liquidity. The numerator and/or the denominator of certain of these statistics and/or ratios include non-GAAP financial measures that have been reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. These debt statistics and ratios include: (1) an interest coverage ratio; (2) a fixed charge coverage ratio; (3) total debt as a percentage of undepreciated real estate assets (adjusted for joint venture partner�s share of debt); (4) total debt plus preferred equity as a percentage of undepreciated real estate assets (adjusted for joint venture partner�s share of debt); (5) a ratio of consolidated debt to total assets; (6) a ratio of secured debt to total assets; (7) a ratio of total unencumbered assets to unsecured debt; and (8) a ratio of consolidated income available to debt service to annual debt service charge. A number of these debt statistics and ratios are derived from covenants found in the Company�s debt agreements, including, among others, the Company�s senior unsecured notes. In addition, the Company presents these measures because the degree of leverage could affect the Company�s ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, development or other general corporate purposes. The Company uses these measures internally as an indicator of liquidity and the Company believes that these measures are also utilized by the investment and analyst communities to better understand the Company�s liquidity. Average Economic Occupancy � The Company uses average economic occupancy as a statistical measure of operating performance. The Company defines average economic occupancy as gross potential rent less vacancy losses, model expenses and bad debt expenses divided by gross potential rent for the period, expressed as a percentage.
