INDIANAPOLIS, April 22, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Simon Property Group, Inc. (NYSE: SPG) today reported results for the quarter ended March 31, 2014.
Results for the Quarter
- Funds from Operations ("FFO") was $865.3 million, or $2.38 per diluted share, as compared to $741.9 million, or $2.05 per diluted share, in the prior year period. The FFO increase per diluted share was 16.1%.
- Net income attributable to common stockholders was $341.6 million, or $1.10 per diluted share, as compared to $283.1 million, or $0.91 per diluted share, in the prior year period.

Development Activity
During the first quarter, we started construction on three significant redevelopment and expansion projects:
- Stanford Shopping Center in Palo Alto, California – relocation of Bloomingdale's (opening October 2014), and a 120,000 square foot small shop expansion including restaurants and leading retailers
- Houston Galleria in Houston, Texas – relocation of Saks Fifth Avenue, and 105,000 square foot small shop expansion including restaurants and leading retailers
- Yeoju Premium Outlets in Yeoju (Seoul), Korea – 259,000 square foot expansion of this highly productive outlet center
Redevelopment and expansion projects, including the addition of new anchors, are underway at 29 properties in the U.S., Asia and Mexico.
Construction continues on four new Premium Outlets opening in 2014 and 2015:
- Charlotte Premium Outlets in Charlotte, North Carolina is a 400,000 square foot center scheduled to open in July of 2014. The Company owns a 50% interest in this project.
- Twin Cities Premium Outlets in Eagan, Minnesota is a 410,000 square foot center scheduled to open in August of 2014. The Company owns a 35% interest in this project.
- Montreal Premium Outlets in Mirabel, Quebec, Canada is a 360,000 square foot center scheduled to open in October of 2014. The Company owns a 50% interest in this project.
- Vancouver Designer Outlet in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada is a 242,000 square foot center scheduled to open in April of 2015. The Company owns a 45% interest in this project.
The Company's share of the costs of all development and redevelopment projects currently under construction is approximately $1.5 billion.
Acquisitions and Dispositions
As previously announced in January 2014, we acquired our joint venture partners' remaining interest in Kravco Simon Investments, an owner of interests in a portfolio of 10 assets. This transaction included the remaining interest in King of Prussia Mall, bringing our ownership of that asset to 100%.
In January, we completed the acquisition of our joint venture partner's interest in Arizona Mills, as well as land in Oyster Bay, Long Island for future development. We now own 100% of Arizona Mills.
Financing Activity
In January, 2014, Simon Property Group, L.P., completed a $1.2 billion senior unsecured notes offering with a weighted average duration of 7.5 years and an average coupon rate of 2.975%. The offering was comprised of $600 million of 2.20% five-year senior notes and $600 million of 3.75% ten-year senior notes. Net proceeds from the public offering were used to repay debt and for general corporate purposes.
On April 7th, the Company announced that it had amended and extended its $4.0 billion unsecured multi-currency revolving credit facility. The newly refinanced facility, which can be increased to $5.0 billion during its term, will initially mature on June 30, 2018 and can be extended for an additional year to June 30, 2019 at the Company's sole option. The interest rate on the amended revolver is reduced to LIBOR plus 80 basis points from LIBOR plus 95 basis points. The Company has a combined $6.0 billion of total revolving credit capacity.
Washington Prime Group Inc. Spin-Off
Activities continue related to the announced spin-off transaction of our strip centers and smaller enclosed malls. During the first quarter, we announced the senior management team and Board of Directors for Washington Prime Group Inc. We continue to expect the transaction will be completed in the second quarter of 2014.
2014 Guidance
Today the Company increased its FFO guidance by $0.10 to a range of $9.60 to $9.70 per diluted share for the year ending December 31, 2014, and net income to a range of $4.55 to $4.65 per diluted share. This guidance does not take into consideration any impact from the previously mentioned spin-off of Washington Prime Group. The Company plans to update guidance once the spin-off transaction is completed.
The following table provides the reconciliation for the expected range of estimated net income available to common stockholders per diluted share to estimated FFO per diluted share:

(C)
|
This report contains measures of financial or operating performance that are not specifically defined by GAAP, including FFO and FFO per share. FFO is a performance measure that is standard in the REIT business. We believe FFO provides investors with additional information concerning our operating performance and a basis to compare our performance with those of other REITs. We also use these measures internally to monitor the operating performance of our portfolio. Our computation of these non-GAAP measures may not be the same as similar measures reported by other REITs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We determine FFO based upon the definition set forth by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"). We determine FFO to be our share of consolidated net income computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding real estate related depreciation and amortization, excluding gains and losses from extraordinary items, excluding gains and losses from the sales or disposals of, or any impairment charges related to, previously depreciated retail operating properties, plus the allocable portion of FFO of unconsolidated joint ventures based upon economic ownership interest, and all determined on a consistent basis in accordance with GAAP.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We have adopted NAREIT's clarification of the definition of FFO that requires it to include the effects of nonrecurring items not classified as extraordinary, cumulative effect of accounting changes, or a gain or loss resulting from the sale or disposal of, or any impairment charges relating to, previously depreciated retail operating properties. We include in FFO gains and losses realized from the sale of land, outlot buildings, marketable and non-marketable securities, and investment holdings of non-retail real estate. However, you should understand that FFO does not represent cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP, should not be considered as an alternative to net income determined in accordance with GAAP as a measure of operating performance, and is not an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity.
