Third Quarter 2018 Operating Results and Investment Activity by Segment

Colony Capital holds investment interests in six reportable segments: Healthcare Real Estate; Industrial Real Estate; Hospitality Real Estate; CLNC; Other Equity and Debt; and Investment Management.

Healthcare Real Estate

As of September 30, 2018, the consolidated healthcare portfolio consisted of 413 properties: 192 senior housing properties, 108 medical office properties, 99 skilled nursing facilities and 14 hospitals. The Company’s equity interest in the consolidated Healthcare Real Estate segment was approximately 71% as of September 30, 2018. The healthcare portfolio earns rental and escalation income from leasing space to various healthcare tenants and operators. The leases are for fixed terms of varying length and generally provide for rent and expense reimbursements to be paid in monthly installments. The healthcare portfolio also generates operating income from healthcare properties operated through management agreements with independent third-party operators, predominantly through structures permitted by the REIT Investment Diversification and Empowerment Act of 2007 (“RIDEA”).

During the third quarter 2018, this segment’s net loss attributable to common stockholders was $(12.2) million, Core FFO was $19.7 million and consolidated NOI was $76.5 million. In the third quarter 2018, healthcare same store portfolio sequential quarter to quarter comparable revenue and net operating income were unchanged. Compared to the same period last year, third quarter 2018 same store revenue decreased (4.0)% and net operating income increased 0.4%. The revenue decrease was primarily attributable to operators/tenants transitioning from RIDEA to triple-net lease structures. As a result, the Company no longer records gross revenues and certain expenses for such properties and now records net rental revenue. The healthcare same store portfolio is defined as properties in operation throughout the full periods presented under the comparison and included 412 properties in the sequential quarter to quarter and year to year comparisons. Properties acquired, disposed or held for sale during these periods are excluded for the same store portfolio and same store results exclude certain non-recurring bad debt expense.

The following table presents NOI and certain operating metrics by property types in the Company’s Healthcare Real Estate segment:

Asset Acquisition and Disposition

During the third quarter 2018, the consolidated healthcare portfolio disposed of one senior housing operating property and acquired a triple-net lease senior housing property formally financed under the Company’s U.K. development lending facility, reducing the facility to $51 million consolidated or $36 million CLNY OP share carrying value as of September 30, 2018.

Industrial Real Estate

As of September 30, 2018, the consolidated industrial portfolio consisted of 406 primarily light industrial buildings totaling 48.9 million rentable square feet across 20 major U.S. markets and was 94% leased. During the third quarter 2018, the Company raised $84 million of new third-party capital. As a result, the Company’s equity interest in the consolidated Industrial Real Estate segment decreased to approximately 36% as of September 30, 2018 from 37% as of June 30, 2018. Total third-party capital commitments were approximately $1.5 billion compared to cumulative balance sheet contributions of $749 million as of September 30, 2018. The Company continues to own a 100% interest in the related operating platform. The Industrial Real Estate segment is comprised of and primarily invests in light industrial properties in infill locations in major U.S. metropolitan markets generally targeting multi-tenanted warehouses less than 250,000 square feet.

During the third quarter 2018, this segment’s net income attributable to common stockholders was $1.0 million, Core FFO was $12.9 million and consolidated NOI was $49.0 million. In the third quarter 2018, industrial same store portfolio sequential quarter to quarter comparable rental revenue decreased (1.0)% and net operating income decreased (1.5)%. The decrease was primarily related to vacancies in the quarter, most of which have been backfilled with leases that have not yet taken occupancy. Compared to the same period last year, third quarter 2018 same store rental revenue increased 3.1% and net operating income increased 0.8%. The Company’s industrial same store portfolio consisted of 259 buildings. The same store portfolio is defined once a year at the beginning of the current calendar year and includes buildings that were owned, stabilized and held-for-use throughout the entirety of both the current and prior calendar years. Properties acquired, disposed or held-for-sale after the same store portfolio is determined are excluded. Stabilized properties are defined as properties owned for more than one year or are greater than 90% leased. Same store NOI excludes lease termination fee revenue.

The following table presents NOI and certain operating metrics in the Company’s Industrial Real Estate segment:

Asset Acquisitions and Dispositions

During the third quarter 2018, the consolidated industrial portfolio acquired 15 industrial buildings totaling approximately 1.5 million square feet and one land parcel for development for a total of approximately $134 million and disposed of one non-core building for approximately $7 million.

Subsequent to the third quarter 2018, the consolidated industrial portfolio disposed of three non-core buildings for approximately $4 million.

Hospitality Real Estate

As of September 30, 2018, the consolidated hospitality portfolio consisted of 167 properties: 97 select service properties, 66 extended stay properties and 4 full service properties. The Company’s equity interest in the consolidated Hospitality Real Estate segment was approximately 94% as of September 30, 2018. The hospitality portfolio consists primarily of premium branded select service hotels and extended stay hotels located mostly in major metropolitan markets, of which a majority are affiliated with top hotel brands. The select service hospitality portfolio referred to as the THL Hotel Portfolio, which the Company acquired through consensual transfer during the third quarter 2017, is not included in the Hospitality Real Estate segment and is included in the Other Equity and Debt segment.

During the third quarter 2018, this segment’s net loss attributable to common stockholders was $(62.9) million, Core FFO was $34.8 million and consolidated EBITDA was $77.9 million. This segment's net loss attributable to common stockholders included $62 million of impairments related to certain non-core properties expected to be sold in the near term. Impairment of real estate is added back in the calculation of FFO and, as a result, Core FFO. Compared to the same period last year, third quarter 2018 hospitality same store portfolio revenue increased 1.1% and EBITDA decreased (1.3)%, primarily due to higher occupancy offset by increased labor and operating expenses. The Company’s hotels typically experience seasonal variations in occupancy which may cause quarterly fluctuations in revenues and therefore sequential quarter to quarter revenue and EBITDA result comparisons are not meaningful. The hospitality same store portfolio is defined as hotels in operation throughout the full periods presented under the comparison and included 167 hotels in the year to year comparison.

The following table presents EBITDA and certain operating metrics by brands in the Company’s Hospitality Real Estate segment:

Asset Financing

During the third quarter 2018, the Company refinanced approximately $550 million of consolidated and CLNY OP share of debt in the Hospitality Real Estate segment, extending the fully extended maturity date from 2019 to 2025.

Colony Credit Real Estate, Inc. (“CLNC”)

On February 1, 2018, Colony Credit Real Estate, Inc., a leading commercial real estate credit REIT, announced the completion of the combination of a select portfolio of the Company’s assets and liabilities from the Other Equity and Debt segment with NorthStar Real Estate Income Trust, Inc. (“NorthStar I”) and NorthStar Real Estate Income II, Inc. (“NorthStar II”) in an all-stock transaction. In connection with the closing, CLNC completed the listing of its Class A common stock on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “CLNC.” The combination created a permanent capital vehicle, externally managed by the Company, with approximately $5.5 billion in assets, excluding securitization trust liabilities, and $3.0 billion in equity value as of September 30, 2018. The Company owns 48.0 million shares, or 37%, of CLNC and earns an annual base management fee of 1.5% on stockholders’ equity and an incentive fee of 20% of CLNC’s Core Earnings over a 7% hurdle rate. During the third quarter 2018, this segment’s net loss attributable to common stockholders was $(18.3) million and Core FFO was $14.2 million. This segment's net loss attributable to common stockholders included $22 million CLNY OP share of CLNC impairments and provisions for loan losses, which are added back in the calculation of CLNC's Core Earnings and, as a result, the Company’s Core FFO. Please refer to the CLNC's earnings release and financial supplemental furnished on Form 8-K filed with the SEC and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to be filed with the SEC for additional detail.

Other Equity and Debt

The Company owns a diversified group of strategic and non-strategic real estate and real estate-related debt and equity investments. Strategic investments include our 11% interest in NorthStar Realty Europe Corp. (NYSE: NRE) and other investments for which the Company acts as a general partner or manager (“GP Co-Investments”) and receives various forms of investment management economics on the related third-party capital. Non-strategic investments are composed of those investments the Company does not intend to own for the long term including other real estate equity including the THL Hotel Portfolio and the Company’s interest in Albertsons; real estate loans; net leased assets; and multiple classes of commercial real estate (“CRE”) securities. During the third quarter 2018, this segment’s aggregate net income attributable to common stockholders was $57.7 million and Core FFO was $56.5 million.

Other Equity and Debt Segment Asset Acquisitions and Dispositions

During the third quarter 2018, the Company invested, or committed to invest, $166 million in five Strategic Other Equity and Debt investments, representing immediate GP co-investments, or investments the Company expects to contribute to a future managed fund or syndicate to third-party investors. During the third quarter 2018, the Company sold or received payoffs in aggregate of over $590 million with net equity proceeds of approximately $324 million from various other real estate debt and equity investments, including $122 million from the Net Lease Real Estate Equity category; $45 million from the Real Estate Debt category; and $157 million in the Real Estate Private Equity and CRE Securities category. Since the beginning of 2018, the Company has reduced its CRE securities and real estate private equity investments by approximately 60% and 95%, respectively.

As of September 30, 2018, the undepreciated carrying value of assets and equity within the Other Equity and Debt segment were $3.4 billion and $2.1 billion, respectively, down from $3.9 billion and $2.4 billion, respectively, as of June 30, 2018.

Investment Management

The Company’s Investment Management segment includes the business and operations of managing capital on behalf of third-party investors through closed and open-end private funds, non-traded and traded real estate investment trusts and registered investment companies. As of September 30, 2018, the Company had $28.9 billion of third-party AUM compared to $28.0 billion as of June 30, 2018. As of September 30, 2018, Fee-Earning Equity Under Management (“FEEUM”) was $17.7 billion compared to $17.0 billion as of June 30, 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to capital raised in Digital Colony, the industrial platform, and an increase in the Company's share of AccorInvest, partially offset by asset sales. During the third quarter 2018, this segment’s aggregate net income attributable to common stockholders was $19.2 million and Core FFO was $38.5 million. This segment’s net income included an aggregate $5 million of unrealized carried interest from the industrial platform and the Company's investment in AccorInvest. This segment’s net income was also negatively impacted by an aggregate $7 million of placement fees related to third-party capital raised in AccorInvest and Digital Colony, which must be expensed upfront although payments are made over time, and $12 million of impairments, net of a gain, to interests in non-wholly owned Real Estate Investment Management platforms and to intangibles on an investment management contract. The impairments and gain are reversed in the calculation of Core FFO.

Digital Real Estate Infrastructure

During the third quarter 2018, Digital Colony raised $1.0 billion and had an aggregate $4.0 billion of committed capital as of September 30, 2018, inclusive of a $250 million capital commitment by certain subsidiaries of the Company.

Assets Under Management (“AUM”)

As of September 30, 2018, the Company had $44 billion of AUM compared to $43 billion as of June 30, 2018:

Corporate Restructuring and Cost Reduction Plan

Following a strategic review process, the Company announced that it is implementing a corporate restructuring and reorganization plan to match resources that further align its increasing focus on the investment management business under an ‘asset-light’ business model while exiting certain non-core businesses and assets. The plan is expected to deliver $50 to $55 million ($45 to $50 million on a cash basis) of annual compensation and administrative cost savings on a run-rate basis by year-end 2019 and will result in a reduction of the Company’s global workforce by approximately 15%. The majority of the benefit of the restructuring efforts will be seen in 2019 and early 2020, although some benefits may be realized in the fourth quarter of 2018.

Liquidity and Financing

As of November 5, 2018, the Company had approximately $1.0 billion of liquidity through availability under its revolving credit facility.

Common Stock and Operating Company Units

As of November 5, 2018, the Company had approximately 491.0 million shares of Class A and B common stock outstanding and the Company’s operating partnership had approximately 31.4 million operating company units outstanding held by members other than the Company or its subsidiaries.

As of November 5, 2018, the Company had $282 million remaining under its share repurchase program.

Contingent Consideration

During the third quarter 2018, the Company issued 2.0 million common shares and operating company units with an estimated value of $12.5 million to senior management personnel as contingent consideration related to the internalization transaction of Colony Capital, LLC in April 2015.

Common and Preferred Dividends

The Company redeemed in its entirety the outstanding Series D cumulative redeemable perpetual preferred stock and paid all accrued cash dividends, in accordance of the terms of the redemption, related to the Series D cumulative redeemable perpetual preferred stock on July 2, 2018.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Definitions

Assets Under Management (“AUM”)

Assets for which the Company and its affiliates provide investment management services, including assets for which the Company may or may not charge management fees and/or performance allocations. AUM is based on reported gross undepreciated carrying value of managed investments as reported by each underlying vehicle at September 30, 2018. AUM further includes a) uncalled capital commitments and b) includes the Company’s pro-rata share of each affiliate non wholly-owned real estate investment management platform’s assets as presented and calculated by the affiliate. Affiliates include the co-sponsored digital real estate infrastructure vehicle, RXR Realty LLC, SteelWave, LLC, American Healthcare Investors and Hamburg Trust. The Company's calculations of AUM may differ materially from the calculations of other asset managers, and as a result, this measure may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other asset managers.

CLNY OP

The operating partnership through which the Company conducts all of its activities and holds substantially all of its assets and liabilities. CLNY OP share excludes noncontrolling interests in investment entities.

Fee-Earning Equity Under Management (“FEEUM”)

Equity for which the Company and its affiliates provides investment management services and derives management fees and/or performance allocations. FEEUM generally represents a) the basis used to derive fees, which may be based on invested equity, stockholders’ equity, or fair value pursuant to the terms of each underlying investment management agreement and b) the Company’s pro-rata share of fee bearing equity of each affiliate as presented and calculated by the affiliate. Affiliates include the co-sponsored digital real estate infrastructure vehicle, RXR Realty LLC, SteelWave, LLC, American Healthcare Investors and Hamburg Trust. The Company's calculations of FEEUM may differ materially from the calculations of other asset managers, and as a result, this measure may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other asset managers.

Funds From Operations (“FFO”) and Core Funds From Operations (“Core FFO”)

The Company calculates funds from operations (“FFO”) in accordance with standards established by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, which defines FFO as net income or loss calculated in accordance with GAAP, excluding extraordinary items, as defined by GAAP, gains and losses from sales of depreciable real estate and impairment write-downs associated with depreciable real estate, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization, and after similar adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Included in FFO are gains and losses from sales of assets which are not depreciable real estate such as loans receivable, investments in unconsolidated joint ventures as well as investments in debt and other equity securities, as applicable.

The Company computes core funds from operations (“Core FFO”) by adjusting FFO for the following items, including the Company’s share of these items recognized by its unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures: (i) gains and losses from sales of depreciable real estate within the Other Equity and Debt segment, net of depreciation, amortization and impairment previously adjusted for FFO; (ii) gains and losses from sales of businesses within the Investment Management segment and impairment write-downs associated with the Investment Management segment; (iii) equity-based compensation expense; (iv) effects of straight-line rent revenue and expense; (v) amortization of acquired above- and below-market lease values; (vi) amortization of deferred financing costs and debt premiums and discounts; (vii) unrealized fair value gains or losses and foreign currency remeasurements; (viii) acquisition-related expenses, merger and integration costs; (ix) amortization and impairment of finite-lived intangibles related to investment management contracts and customer relationships; (x) gain on remeasurement of consolidated investment entities and the effect of amortization thereof; (xi) non-real estate depreciation and amortization; (xii) change in fair value of contingent consideration; and (xiii) tax effect on certain of the foregoing adjustments. Beginning with the first quarter of 2018, the Company’s Core FFO from its interest in Colony Credit Real Estate (NYSE: CLNC) and NorthStar Realty Europe (NYSE: NRE) represented its percentage interest multiplied by CLNC’s Core Earnings and NRE’s Cash Available for Distribution (“CAD”), respectively. CLNC’s Core Earnings reflect adjustments to GAAP net income to exclude impairment of real estate and provision for loan losses. Such impairment and losses may ultimately be realized, in part or in full, upon a sale or monetization of the related asset or loan and such realized loss would be reflected in CLNC’s Core Earnings and, as a result, the Company’s Core FFO. Refer to CLNC’s and NRE's respective filings with the SEC for the definition and calculation of Core Earnings and CAD.

FFO and Core FFO should not be considered alternatives to GAAP net income as indications of operating performance, or to cash flows from operating activities as measures of liquidity, nor as indications of the availability of funds for our cash needs, including funds available to make distributions. FFO and Core FFO should not be used as supplements to or substitutes for cash flow from operating activities computed in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s calculations of FFO and Core FFO may differ from methodologies utilized by other REITs for similar performance measurements, and, accordingly, may not be comparable to those of other REITs.

The Company uses FFO and Core FFO as supplemental performance measures because, in excluding real estate depreciation and amortization and gains and losses from property dispositions, it provides a performance measure that captures trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, and operating costs. The Company also believes that, as widely recognized measures of the performance of REITs, FFO and Core FFO will be used by investors as a basis to compare its operating performance with that of other REITs. However, because FFO and Core FFO exclude depreciation and amortization and capture neither the changes in the value of the Company’s properties that resulted from use or market conditions nor the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of its properties, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact the Company’s results from operations, the utility of FFO and Core FFO as measures of the Company’s performance is limited. FFO and Core FFO should be considered only as supplements to GAAP net income as a measure of the Company’s performance.

Net Operating Income (“NOI”) / Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”)

NOI for healthcare and industrial segments represents total property and related income less property operating expenses, adjusted for the effects of (i) straight-line rental income adjustments; (ii) amortization of acquired above- and below-market lease adjustments to rental income; and (iii) other items such as adjustments for the Company’s share of NOI of unconsolidated ventures.

EBITDA for the hospitality real estate segment represents net income from continuing operations of that segment excluding the impact of interest expense, income tax expense or benefit, and depreciation and amortization.

The Company believes that NOI and EBITDA are useful measures of operating performance of its respective real estate portfolios as they are more closely linked to the direct results of operations at the property level. NOI also reflects actual rents received during the period after adjusting for the effects of straight-line rents and amortization of above- and below- market leases; therefore, a comparison of NOI across periods better reflects the trend in occupancy rates and rental rates of the Company’s properties.

NOI and EBITDA exclude historical cost depreciation and amortization, which are based on different useful life estimates depending on the age of the properties, as well as adjust for the effects of real estate impairment and gains or losses on sales of depreciated properties, which eliminate differences arising from investment and disposition decisions. This allows for comparability of operating performance of the Company’s properties period over period and also against the results of other equity REITs in the same sectors. Additionally, by excluding corporate level expenses or benefits such as interest expense, any gain or loss on early extinguishment of debt and income taxes, which are incurred by the parent entity and are not directly linked to the operating performance of the Company’s properties, NOI and EBITDA provide a measure of operating performance independent of the Company’s capital structure and indebtedness.

However, the exclusion of these items as well as others, such as capital expenditures and leasing costs, which are necessary to maintain the operating performance of the Company’s properties, and transaction costs and administrative costs, may limit the usefulness of NOI and EBITDA. NOI may fail to capture significant trends in these components of U.S. GAAP net income (loss) which further limits its usefulness.

NOI should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss), determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, as an indicator of operating performance. In addition, the Company’s methodology for calculating NOI involves subjective judgment and discretion and may differ from the methodologies used by other comparable companies, including other REITs, when calculating the same or similar supplemental financial measures and may not be comparable with other companies.

Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation, Amortization and Rent (“EBITDAR”)

Represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and rent for facilities accruing to the tenant/operator of the property (not the Company) for the period presented. The Company uses EBITDAR in determining TTM Lease Coverage for triple-net lease properties in its Healthcare Real Estate segment. EBITDAR has limitations as an analytical tool. EBITDAR does not reflect historical cash expenditures or future cash requirements for facility capital expenditures or contractual commitments. In addition, EBITDAR does not represent a property's net income or cash flow from operations and should not be considered an alternative to those indicators. The Company utilizes EBITDAR as a supplemental measure of the ability of the Company's operators/tenants to generate sufficient liquidity to meet related obligations to the Company.

TTM Lease Coverage

Represents the ratio of EBITDAR to recognized cash rent for owned facilities on a trailing twelve month basis. TTM Lease Coverage is a supplemental measure of a tenant’s/operator’s ability to meet their cash rent obligations to the Company. However, its usefulness is limited by, among other things, the same factors that limit the usefulness of EBITDAR.

The information related to the Company’s tenants/operators that is provided in this press release has been provided by, or derived from information provided by, such tenants/operators. The Company has not independently verified this information and has no reason to believe that such information is inaccurate in any material respect. The Company is providing this data for informational purposes only.

Factors that might cause such a difference include, without limitation, our failure to achieve anticipated synergies in and benefits of the completed merger among NorthStar Asset Management Group Inc., Colony Capital, Inc. and NorthStar Realty Finance Corp., the impact of changes to the Company’s management, employee and organizational structure, the amount, timing and impact of cost reductions, including whether any anticipated benefits of such reductions will be realized, the Company’s financial flexibility, the Company's ability to grow its investment management business, the timing and pace of growth of the Company's Industrial platform, the performance of the Company’s investment in Colony Credit Real Estate, Inc., the Company’s ability to maintain or create future permanent capital vehicles under its management, whether the Company will realize any anticipated benefits from the Digital Bridge partnership, the Company’s ability to simplify its business and become more balance sheet-light, the Company's portfolio composition, Colony Capital’s liquidity, including its ability to continue to generate liquidity by more accelerated sales of non-core assets and businesses, whether the Company will complete or sponsor any compelling investment opportunities under a predominantly third-party capital model, the Company's expected taxable income and net cash flows, excluding the contribution of gains, the Company’s ability to grow the dividend at all in the future; the impact to the Company of the management agreement amendments with NorthStar Healthcare Income, Inc. and NorthStar Realty Europe Corp., whether Colony Capital will be able to maintain its qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the timing of and ability to deploy available capital, the timing of and ability to complete repurchases of Colony Capital’s stock, Colony Capital’s ability to maintain inclusion and relative performance on the RMZ, Colony Capital’s leverage, including the Company’s ability to reduce debt and the timing and amount of borrowings under its credit facility, whether the Company will benefit from the combination of its broker-dealer business with S2K Financial, increased interest rates and operating costs, adverse economic or real estate developments in Colony Capital’s markets, Colony Capital’s failure to successfully operate or lease acquired properties, decreased rental rates, increased vacancy rates or failure to renew or replace expiring leases, defaults on or non-renewal of leases by tenants, the impact of economic conditions on the borrowers of Colony Capital’s commercial real estate debt investments and the commercial mortgage loans underlying its commercial mortgage backed securities, adverse general and local economic conditions, an unfavorable capital market environment, decreased leasing activity or lease renewals, and other risks and uncertainties detailed in our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). All forward-looking statements reflect the Company’s good faith beliefs, assumptions and expectations, but they are not guarantees of future performance.
