President and Chief Executive Officer Tim Mihalick commented, "Our fourth quarter and full year results, which included increases in revenue of 7.5% and 5.0% respectively, show the value of our continued efforts to reposition the portfolio and focus our strategy. Within our multifamily portfolio, we continue to drive strong NOI growth in our total portfolio as we complete and lease up our development pipeline, and we captured strong same store NOI growth across most of our platform, with the exception of our energy-affected markets."

Mr. Mihalick continued, "During the fourth quarter, our disposition volume totaled approximately $32 million, bringing our total sales price for assets sold in fiscal year 2016 to $414.1 million. Moving forward, we will continue to execute on our strategic and capital plans to further simplify our platform and transition to a pure-play multifamily REIT, improve operations and maximize margins, execute on our redevelopment initiatives, and optimize our capital allocation and balance sheet. We believe that the successful execution of this strategy will enhance our long term growth profile and is the best path for value creation for our shareholders."

Financial Results for the Three and Twelve Months Ended April 30, 2016 Compared to the Prior Year Period

Net Income Available to Common Shareholders for the quarter ended April 30, 2016 was $8.1 million compared to $7.9 million for the same period of the prior fiscal year.  Net Income Available to Common Shareholders for the twelve month period ending April 30, 2016 was $60.5 million compared to $12.6 million for the same period of the prior fiscal year. The increase in Net Income Available to Common Shareholders was primarily due to gain on extinguishment of debt of $36.5 million and gain on sale of discontinued operations of $23.8 million recognized in the twelve months ended April 30, 2016.

Funds from Operations ("FFO") for the quarter ending April 30, 2016 was $19.2 million or $0.14 per share/unit.  FFO for the twelve months ending April 30, 2016 was $103.9 million or $0.76 per share/unit. Excluding gain or loss on extinguishment of debt, default interest, and gain on bargain purchase, FFO would have been $0.55 for the twelve months ended April 30, 2016.

In addition to these initiatives to grow the multifamily portfolio through acquisitions and development, the Company has launched a value add program whereby IRET will be committing an estimated $3.5 million per quarter to rehab approximately 1,500 units in fiscal year 2017. Apartments will be remodeled as the leases expire and upgrades will include a variety of new appliances, flooring, lighting, kitchen cabinets, and bathroom upgrades. Management expects these upgrades to range from $7,000 to $13,000 per unit and result in a return on investment of approximately 8% to 10% per year per unit.  During fiscal year 2016, under the value add program the Company completed remodeling of 539 units at an average cost of $7,553 with an average return on investment for leased units of 11.3%.

Guidance

For the fiscal year ending April 30, 2017, management expects to report FFO in the range of $0.48 to $0.54 per share/unit. This guidance reflects management's view of current market conditions, as well as the earnings impact of certain events referenced in this release and discussed during the scheduled fourth quarter and fiscal year 2016 conference call. This guidance does not include the operational or capital impact of any future acquisition, development, disposition, or capital markets activity, including potential transactions discussed as part of the Company's strategic initiatives. This guidance is also based on management's assumption of same-store multifamily NOI growth of 2% to 4%. A number of factors could impact the Company's ability to meet its guidance and assumption, and there can be no assurance that the Company can achieve such results. This guidance and assumption are subject to change.
